⚡️🇪🇺 WATCH - ECB’s Christine Lagarde praises China’s CBDC, saying it works “for everyone.”
The European Union plans to introduce its central bank digital currency—the digital euro—in October of this year.
Christine Lagarde, head of the European Central Bank: "It is piloted on a fairly large scale in China, [where it] is of use and of service to all citizens."
"So it is not something that is good for the elite, or is good for the young, or is good for some versus others."
"If it is well done, and if it is well implemented, it would be of service to all citizens."
