Universal Access to Central Bank Digital Currencies | Co-Pierre Georg

Many humans on our planet remain DIGITALLY excluded. Those who are excluded can be limited or unable to participate fully in society. 

This divide between those with digital skills and those with barriers to access and use continues to widen. Co-Pierre George, who holds the South African Reserve Bank Chair in Financial Stability Studies, and his talented team at University of Cape Town, see this as a call to action for innovative products and services that close this social and economic gap. In the last year, these XRPL Grant winners developed Nautilus Wallet  which provides universal access to digital rights assets without needing a smartphone. 

This episode leads us through a start-up experience of solving challenges of financial exclusion. 

This concludes our Season 4. We will resume with Season 5 in the fall. Special shout out to THE WEBBY AWARDS for honoring All About Blockchain as the best of the internet!
