Will CBDC Influence and Compete with Stablecoins?

[Suba]

CBDC are digital currencies regulated and issued by a country's central bank. Therefore, CBDC are also everyday fiat currencies in digital form. Some CBDC run on blockchains, while others run on other networks. Some countries have launched CBDC, such as the Bahamas (Sand Dollar), Nigeria (eNaira), Jamaica (JAM-DEX), and others.

At first glance, CBDC resemble stablecoins, which are pegged to cash. However, most experts believe CBDC are not a type of cryptocurrency.
However, upon closer examination, many differences between CBDC and stablecoins emerge. CBDC use private blockchains, making them accessible only to the central bank and linked to a person's bank account. Stablecoins, on the other hand, use public ledgers, or blockchains, accessible to anyone. However, as far as I know, many CBDCs are not recognized as a means of transaction globally.

CBDCs, or central bank digital currencies, are a digital form of traditional fiat money, controlled and issued by monetary authorities. Some operate on blockchains, while others use different networks. Countries like the Bahamas, Nigeria, and Jamaica have already launched their own CBDCs, such as the Sand Dollar, eNaira, and JAM-DEX. Although at first glance they seem similar to stablecoins, which are pegged to physical currency, there are actually important differences. CBDCs use private blockchains, accessible only to central banks and linked to personal bank accounts, while stablecoins operate on public blockchains open to everyone. Furthermore, CBDCs are not yet widely recognized as a means of payment worldwide. It will be interesting to see how their adoption and regulation evolve, as they could significantly change the financial landscape in the near future.
