It announced intentions to extend the deployment of the e-CNY to four of the nation's provinces, including Guangdong, in September 2022. (earlier, the pilot ran only in separate cities).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It's interesting to note that the Bank of China reported approximately $13 billion (87.5 billion yuan) in transactions by January 2022; the most recent update may indicate that the total value of new transactions in the previous seven months was under $1 billion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
