  CBDC, also known as Central Bank Digital Currency, is a digital form of money issued by a central bank. It is different from cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin because it is backed by a government or central bank and has the same value as traditional fiat currencies. CBDCs are designed to provide a secure and efficient means of payment, while also offering the benefits of digital currencies. They can be used for various purposes, such as making online payments, conducting cross-border transactions, and promoting financial inclusion. CBDCs are seen as a potential solution to improve the efficiency and transparency of financial systems, as well as to address issues such as money laundering and illegal activities.
