1/ @vechainofficial and #CBDC
Bear with me on this thread as it is a break from my usual norm and deals with a fair bit of speculation. I would like to start with the below quote from @jasonrockwood
2/ Research paper on Retail CBDCs published by @IMFNews on June 26 and co-authored by @PeterZh47977516 .

3/Box 1: Synthetic CBDC (sCBDC)
"sCBDC is backed with central bank reserves, and thus differs from privately issued digital currencies such as e-money, stablecoins, or crypto-assets that are not backed by any asset."

Now refer to VeChain Whitepaper 2.0

5/PoA 2.0 brings scalability & finality to #VeChainThor & is developed based on customer feedback

6/IMF paper: "sCBDC thus requires central banks to widen access to their reserves to non-bank financial firms, BigTechs, and fintech startups"

7/ To conclude, it is my assumption that the ideas mentioned in the IMF paper, particularly around sCBDCs might be implemented on #VeChainThor as a Euro stablecoin backed by the San Marino CB; and that PoA 2.0 is being developed for this use case.

DYOR.
