The renminbi is the 8th most traded currency internationally.

+1 billion Chinese already use mobile payment services.

Unlike a cryptocurrency, the digital yuan is issued by the Central Bank of China.

A threat to the dollar’s reign?

China has been conducting pilot tests with its digital currency in different cities across the country since April 2020 and is on track to officially launch it at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing.

The digital yuan, also called DCEP or e-yuan, emerged as an alternative to existing private payment channels (Alipay and WeChat Pay) and could encourage the internationalization of the Chinese renminbi and even, according to speculation, produce the necessary conditions for the overtaking the US dollar as the world’s reserve currency.

Seeking to facilitate the use and adherence of citizens to the currency, transactions can be carried out in seconds in different ways: via application, NFC (a mode that allows offline transfers), biometric identification, and physical-digital wallet.

The issuance of a digital currency, in addition to reinforcing the digitization of physical money throughout the country, will allow greater state control over financial transactions, since its issuance is the responsibility of the Chinese Central Bank.
