Digital Euro passed first successful test at the Bank of France
Per a May 20 announcement from Banque de France, France has become the first country to successfully trial a digital euro, operational on a blockchain.
This recent pilot of a securities issuance in exchange for a digital euro was based on software received following the bank’s March 27 call for applications. Per today’s announcement, the bank will spend the coming weeks running similar tests on other files received as part of the same initiative.
