It was confirmed in "Convergence" congress that, European Central Bank(ECB) is considering digital Euro as retail and wholesale central bank Digital currency (CBDC). The ECB is exploring this since 2016, in project Stella, with colleagues from the bank of Japan. They agree with positive aspects of the Blockchain(decentralized, distributed ledger that records the provenance of a digital asset) but the ECB hasn’t seen a solid reason for consumers. Payment systems are already very efficient. 79 Percent of sale transaction in Europe are still in cash. So there is no good motivation for this technology. In the own words of bank’s Innovation Team Leader, Dirk Bullman “ I think, even if we say it from today’s perspective the technology is not yet ready for prime time because we offer the backbone of the financial sector”
In other words despite many positive aspects of digital Euro, there is not enough reason for implementing it yet.
