Europe is ramping up efforts with its digital euro, and powerhouses like India, Brazil, and Russia are no strangers to CBDC development.<\/p>\n<p>The U.S. remains focused on fostering blockchain without venturing into CBDC territory. But we\u2019ll see if the CBDC project becomes a trojan horse shipped via stablecoins.
