China to pilot digital yuan in more cities
数字人民币试点地区再扩围
China's central bank announced Saturday its digital yuan pilot program will be expanded to more domestic cities following its successful operation in recent years.
人民银行网站4月2日宣布,近年来数字人民币试点稳妥推进,将有序扩大试点范围。
The digital fiat currency, or e-CNY, will be accessible in Tianjin and Chongqing municipalities, Guangzhou in South China's Guangdong province, Fuzhou and Xiamen in East China's Fujian province and six cities in East China's Zhejiang province hosting the 2022 Asian Games, the People's Bank of China said in a statement.
在现有试点地区基础上增加天津市、重庆市、广东省广州市、福建省福州市和厦门市、浙江省承办亚运会的6个城市作为试点地区,北京市和河北省张家口市在2022北京冬奥会、冬残奥会场景试点结束后转为试点地区。
The country has tested the use of the digital yuan in over 10 places, including Shenzhen, Shanghai and the Xiong'an New Area. Most recently, Beijing and Zhangjiakou were included into the program after tests in the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games.
此前,人民银行已在深圳、雄安、上海等地和2022年北京冬奥会场景开展数字人民币试点。
Digital yuan transactions in China amounted to nearly 87.57 billion yuan by the end of 2021.
截至2021年12月31日,数字人民币试点交易金额接近875.7亿元。
