Fintech Insider By 11:fs

Our expert host, Simon Taylor, hosted a live onstage panel as part of Empire Startups New York FinTech Week! Earlier this year, we saw an executive order signed on the desk of the White House calling for research and development on a US CBDC. What was once a theoretical possibility has now been directly decreed by the President himself. So, today we’re talking about how this executive order will fit into the history books, what we know about CBDCs currently, what the challenges are still to overcome and what the future may hold.
