Facebook’s June 2019 announcement of the stablecoin, Libra, has prompted a wave of new interest in digital currencies from the Federal Reserve’s announcement that it is exploring issuing a digital currency to banks, fintech companies, and technology firms exploring the use of digital currencies to enhance payments efficiency, expand financial inclusion, speed up settlement flows, and reduce end-user costs.
