Crypto Industry News:

The Central Bank of Tunisia denies reports of the introduction of its own digital currency. In a weekly announcement, the central bank suppressed "unfounded" rumors that it was the first monetary body to issue the central bank's digital currency (CBDC), claiming that PoC's "unrelated project" was out of context:

? The Central Bank of Tunisia has not established any kind of relationship with any domestic or foreign supplier to create any digital currency. The Bank is examining the opportunities and threats associated with these new technologies, especially in terms of cyber security and financial stability. "

He admitted that he was considering CBDC because he said he was examining "all existing alternatives." But there are no immediate plans to launch E-Dinar.

Last week, the Russian state news agency announced that the Central Bank is working with Universa Blockchain to develop and issue a digital currency. The announcement was to take place at the FOREX Club Tunisia event. However, the Central Bank said that no announcement was ever made. Instead, he pointed to a demonstration of the CBDC test project during the FOREX event, which was the root of the misunderstanding.

"This PoC (Proof of Concept) test was taken out of context and became a marketing operation in which the BCT name was misused," reads the bank's statement.
