According to Knafo, the EU is holding back and needs a change in policies:

In her speech, Knafo also criticized the digital euro, describing it as the Central Bank’s way of gaining control over people’s monetary transactions. She stated:
We don’t want this dystopian world where a European bureaucrat could tomorrow ban us from certain transactions and even kick us out of a banking system
Meanwhile, Bitcoin set a new record high today, hitting $108,251. In the last 7 days, the coin’s price has increased by 10%, and its market cap now stands above $2 trillion.
