TechFlow News – On November 9, OKLink was invited to attend the "Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) Roundtable Meeting" hosted by the Global Digital Finance Organization (GDF), where it engaged in discussions with the Bank for International Settlements and the International Monetary Fund on foundational design and real-world applications of CBDC. Zhang Chao, Vice President of OKLink, shared insights on CBDC design features, technical priorities, and payment interoperability, exchanging views on industry development with representatives from global financial leaders including Goldman Sachs, Standard Chartered, PayPal, and Visa.
The roundtable focused on "central bank digital currencies," aiming to establish a two-way dialogue between industry players and regulators, identify opportunities and challenges in CBDC development, and ensure collaborative progress toward the mature and effective implementation of CBDC in the future.
Zhang Chao stated that after CBDC issuance, payment costs will be significantly reduced and the efficiency of the digital economy will improve substantially, though challenges such as money laundering and terrorist financing may also arise. As a leader in China's blockchain industry, OKLink remains committed to technological innovation as its core principle and to meeting the demands of era-driven development. With an open mindset, the company actively participates in international exchanges with global industry leaders, contributing to secure digital economic growth while raising the "Chinese flag" and building the "Chinese brand" at the forefront of the global blockchain industry competition.
