US Federal Government exploring the creation of a U.S. central bank digital currency. My only concern is they make it harder for other cryptocurrencies to compete with it.
Biden to order studies on regulating, issuing cryptocurrency -source
WASHINGTON, March 7 (Reuters) – U.S. President Joe Biden is expected to sign a long-awaited executive order this week directing the Justice Department, Treasury and other agencies to study the legal and economic ramifications of creating a U.S. central bank digital currency, a source familiar with the matter said on Monday.
The White House last year said it was considering a wide-ranging oversight of the cryptocurrency market – including an executive order – to deal with growing threat of ransomware and other cyber crime.
Biden’s order sets an 180-day deadline for a series of reports on “the future of money” and the role that cryptocurrencies will play in the evolving landscape.
