In this episode, the guests from the Digital Pound Foundation, the Digital Dollar Project, the Digital Euro Association and Consult Hyperion discuss how CBDCs can guard fundamental human rights in domestic and international settings. Among the 130 countries currently exploring CBDCs, distinct values are emerging, with some placing higher importance on transactional anonymity for amounts below a certain threshold, guaranteeing complete irretrievability of associated data. Others prioritize centralization and traceability. How can this fragmented landscape become interoperable? Is achieving cross-jurisdictional interoperability feasible, and how can we navigate this path?

Episode 56: This Month in Digital Money – News Digest September 2023

The DEA Podcast was brought to life by the Digital Euro Association and deals with digital money, specifically CBDCs and stablecoins with a focus on different forms of a digital euro.

The Digital Euro Association, as the largest European Think Tank dealing with digital money, is dedicated to educating people on the tokenization of money. In addition to that, the DEA assists in solving the immense challenge of creating an innovative and open environment for digital tokenized money in the eurozone and its 19 member states. Through shared knowledge and collaboration of the DEA community members, with backgrounds in a wide range of industries, we strive to significantly contribute to the development of the digital euro.

On the basis of this interdisciplinarity, it is possible to develop solutions jointly and, under consideration of all interests, to formulate the necessary requirements for politics and the financial sector. In this way, the DEA hopes to offer every citizen, entrepreneur, (central) banker, and politician a platform that helps to understand the enormous impact of the digitization of money on the economy and to define design principles of differing forms of a digital euro.
