From Cash to Code

Exploring Digital Currencies and Crypto

Over the past few decades, the financial landscape has shifted as private money and securities have gone digital, leading to the emergence of crypto assets after the 2008 crisis. However, in the eurozone and many other regions, public money still exists only in physical form, such as coins and notes, and its relevance is fading in the digital age.

With 98% of global GDP represented by 134 countries exploring Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) by 2024, the potential for this new form of public money is massive. At this event, experts will discuss the latest developments in CBDCs, crypto assets, and the impact of digitalization on Europe's financial system. Thought leaders from the public and private domain will also debate how these innovations can revolutionize monetary systems, sparking important questions about the future of finance.
