Shin Hyun-song Rejects Retail CBDC, Backs Stablecoins
Original: Governor Shin Hyun-song Rejects Retail CBDC, Backs Stablecoins
Shin Hyun-song, a governor at the Bank of Korea, has come out against a retail central bank digital currency while voicing support for stablecoins instead. His position puts him at odds with central bankers who favour direct CBDC issuance, and is drawing attention in the debate over how Korea should regulate digital payment instruments.
