ធនាគារអាហ្វ្រិកកណ្តាលមិនអំណោយផលចំពោះការទទួលយក Bitcoin របស់ CAR ទេ។

  • The governor of the Bank of Central African States issues a letter to CAR that talks about its crypto adoption. 
  • Seems like the Governor is not so inclined toward cryptocurrencies. 
  • The CAR’s adoption of crypto might put monetary stability in jeopardy, highlights the letter. 

The governor of the Bank of Central African States, or Banque des États de l’Afrique Centrale (BEAC), has recently issued a searing letter to the Central African Republic (CAR) which talks about the country’s adoption of cryptocurrencies. 

Abbas Mahamat Tolli, Governor of the BEAC highlighted in the letter addressed to the CAR Finance Minister Hervé Ndoba, the substantial negative effects that the CAR adopting the digital assets would have on Central Africa’s monetary union.

Earlier in April, the CAR passed a bill regarding its plans to adopt cryptocurrencies. Although the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has already raised concerns. And now the BEAC has just added cherry on the cake. 

Furthermore, the BEAC signifies the adoption of cryptocurrency in the CAR and the potential shift from the CFA currency is problematic. The CFA currency is pegged to the euro, which a lot of locals and Bitcoin enthusiasts don’t like. 

The letter further highlights that this law suggests that its primary aim is to establish a Central African currency beyond the BEAC’s control that could be compatible with or displace the legal currency in force in the CEMAC, jeopardizing monetary stability. 

The Economic Community of Central African States, or La Communauté économique et monétaire de l’Afrique centrale (CEMAC) promotes the regional economic cooperation in Central Africa. And the main focus of the CEMAC is to support the BEAC. CEMAC’s head is the Governor Tolli.

After El Salvador became the first nation to adopt Bitcoin as a legal tender, the CAR is the second country to adopt Bitcoin globally. 

Despite the worldwide criticisms from various authorities and entities, the asset class has made a considerable position in the finance sector. In Fact, El Salvador also attracted some critics when it took the decision including the IMF. 

Although the crypto law stays at peace as of now, it is to look forward to what decision would be taken in the time to come.
