Great opening address from Denis Beau, the Deputy Governor of the Banc de France today at the Central Bank Payments conference in Paris. 🇫🇷 Bank de France has been a leader in experimenting with #Blockchain & DLT to accelerate clearing and settlements. “The #DigitalEuro is coming & will be on shelves soon,” notes Denis Beau. Not a surprise as Europe wishes to strengthen their #payments systems and reliance on the U.S. Dollar. Europe doesn’t not want to be dominated by non - European technology companies. #cbdc #paymentsweek
