China is trying to be a good place for investments
China's Ministry of Commerce has
officially announced that it intends to implement the country's national
digital currency pilot program in major Chinese cities, including Beijing. The
announcement of this ministry states: The Renminbi Digital Pilot Project (the
renminbi is the official currency of China) has been completed with the
realization of favorable conditions in cities and regions such as Beijing,
Tianjin, Hebei, the Yangtze River Delta, the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Bay
region and other central and western regions. The announcement goes on to say
that the People's Bank of China is leading the digital yuan project. It is
unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post, but policies are
expected to be completed by the end of this year. Earlier this year, China's
central bank announced the launch of a "digital currency / electronic
payment" project in four cities: Shenzhen, Suzhou, Chengdu and Xi'an.
Recently, Didi, China's smart taxi request service, announced a joint venture
agreement with the Central Bank of China's Foreign Exchange Research Institute.
As it turns out, the use of Chinese digital currency in this service is going
to be tested. The Bank of China has been researching and developing its digital
currency project since 2014, however, no official date has been set for the
launch of the project. The Chinese Ministry of Commerce has stated that the
government's technological efforts pursue a fundamental goal and that is
nothing but to upgrade and improve China's economy.
