Countries continue to work on the central bank digital currency (CBDC) at full speed. Countries that want to take part in the new technology have paid attention to the digitalization process of their currencies. Many countries made their first test payments and business transactions with CBDC. Tanzania, on the other hand, has put together a team to explore the risks and benefits of CBDCs. This research will be instrumental in CBDC decisions in the country.
