OG Distributed Cryptocurrency Voluntaryists better
wake the fuck back up and get off their ass, these sorts of
CBDC news have been coming strong the last year or so...
OG's you are losing the people's mindthink adoption race...


International payments provider Mastercard has launched a virtual
testing environment to help central banks around the world test their
Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), said an announcement today.
>From a report: "Today, Mastercard announced a proprietary virtual
testing environment for central banks to evaluate CBDC use cases. The
platform enables the simulation of issuance, distribution and exchange
of CBDCs between banks, financial service providers and consumers,"
said the company. According to the announcement, the effort would
allow banks to test whether CBDCs fit them and are feasible to be
issued -- locally or regionally. "The virtual platform can be
individually customized to the environment in which the central bank
operates, allowing them to [...] simulate a CBDC issuance,
distribution and exchange ecosystem with banks and consumers,
including how a CBDC can interface with existing payment networks and
infrastructures -- e.g., cards and real time payments," said the
announcement.


BTW, some SJW in BLM forgot to rename racist "Master"card, lol.
