Abstract

Zusammenfassung Zahlreiche Zentralbanken planen innerhalb der nächsten Jahre, eigene digitale Zentralbankwährungen einzuführen. Die Blockchain-Technologie kann dafür die technologische Basis darstellen. Zentralbanken experimentieren mit dieser Technologie, um Währungen perspektivisch auf Blockchain-Basis abzubilden. Mögliche Vorteile einer digitalen Zentralbankwährung wären eine höhere finanzielle Stabilität, eine höhere Sicherheit und Effizienz im Zahlungsverkehr und ein höherer Automatisierungsgrad von Geschäftsprozessen. Risiken beständen darin, dass es nach einer Einführung zu einem digitalen Bank Run kommen könnte, dass Banken immens an Bedeutung verlieren könnten und letztlich die Datenschutzproblematik geklärt werden muss.
