Digital Dollar ($) vs. Digital Yuan (¥)
summary
A private not‑for‑profit teamed with Accenture launches the Digital Dollar Project as a think tank to design a programmable, tokenized U.S. CBDC that lets consumers use fiat for online purchases as an alternative to cards. China’s DCEP/digital renminbi emerges from six years of research focused on domestic control and reclaiming payment data from Alipay/WeChat, but faces a closed capital account and limited RMB convertibility, so it is unlikely to internationalize quickly. A digital dollar is argued to be the most globally attractive option versus Libra.
