A global digital currency in the digital economy: prospects for creating

Abstract

The article explores the issues of creating a global digital currency in the digital economy. The study shows that the creation of supranational CBDCs is likely to occur in the medium term. The digital yuan, e-CNY, is deemed to be one of the most successful projects in this area. Having already been almost fully integrated into the PRC’s national economy, e-CNY has great potential for integration at the international level. Moreover, China has already spearheaded the creation of a unified Asian digital currency. In the long term, with the proviso that national and supranational CBDC projects are successfully implemented, it will be possible to create a global digital currency.
