Digital Currency Scope
Digital currency refers to a broad spectrum of currencies that vary primarily in their creation methods and legal standing. The key differentiator is whether these currencies are classified as legal tender, supported by a central bank, or operate independently of state backing. Central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), for example, are digital forms of fiat currency, ensuring stability and regulatory oversight. In contrast, cryptocurrencies, like Bitcoin and Ethereum, function on decentralised networks without a central authority, often characterised by their variable values and speculative nature. This classification reflects the evolving landscape of financial systems, where digital currencies are becoming increasingly relevant in daily transactions, investments, and global commerce, prompting governments and institutions to adapt and respond to this technological advancement.
Digital Currency Benefits
Digital currencies facilitate faster and more cost-effective cross-border transactions. Traditional international payments often involve high fees and lengthy processing times, whereas digital currencies enable near-instantaneous transfers with lower transaction costs. There are several benefits associated with digital currency:
Digital currencies offer numerous benefits that can transform the financial landscape, increase financial inclusion, and improve efficiency in global transactions.
Cross-Border Transactions
Digital currencies provide increased accessibility to financial services, especially for individuals who are unbanked or underbanked. It allows them to participate in financial transactions and access services without the need for traditional banking infrastructure.
Efficiency
Digital currencies enable faster and more efficient transactions compared to traditional banking systems. The use of blockchain technology, in particular, eliminates the need for intermediaries, reduces transaction fees, and speeds up settlement times.
Security
Digital currencies offer enhanced security features compared to traditional payment methods. Blockchain technology provides a decentralised and immutable ledger, making it difficult for fraudulent activities to occur. Additionally, cryptographic techniques ensure secure transactions and protect sensitive user information.
Accessibility
Financial Inclusion
Digital currencies have the potential to promote financial inclusion by providing access to financial services for underserved populations. It allows individuals in remote areas or developing countries to participate in the global economy and gain financial empowerment.
Transparency
The use of digital currencies promotes transparency in financial transactions. The decentralised nature of blockchain technology ensures that transactions are recorded on a public ledger, which can be verified by anyone. This transparency helps prevent fraud and increases trust in the financial system.
Innovation
Digital currencies drive technological innovation and the development of new financial products and services. They open up opportunities for businesses to explore decentralised applications, smart contracts, and other advancements in the digital economy.
Digital Currency Types
The term "digital currency" refers to various currencies, primarily distinguished by their backing as legal tender by central banks. The digital currency landscape is continuously evolving, leading to the emergence of new types over time.
Cryptocurrencies

Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs)

Stablecoins
These are digital currencies that aim to maintain a stable value by pegging their worth to another asset, such as a fiat currency (e.g., US Dollar) or a commodity (e.g., gold). Stablecoins provide stability and can be used for transactions and as a store of value.
Tokenised Assets
These are digital representations of real-world assets, such as real estate, stocks, or commodities. They are often built on blockchain platforms and allow for fractional ownership and easy transferability.
Digital Fiat Currencies
These are digital versions of traditional fiat currencies issued by governments and regulated by central banks. They are essentially electronic representations of physical money and are used for online transactions.
Utility Tokens
These are digital tokens that provide access to specific products, services, or networks within a particular blockchain ecosystem. Utility tokens are not intended as investments but rather serve a specific purpose within the associated platform.
