The Central Bank of the Bahamas has announced plans to force local banks to accept the country's digital currency. This digital currency, launched in 2020 and called "Sand Dollar", will receive a significant boost as all local banks must provide access to their customers by 2026. However, the Bahamas' CBDC currently accounts for less than 1% of the currency in circulation in the country. Other countries are also experiencing difficulties in adopting CBDC. India's digital currency e-rupee has seen a sharp decline in activity after local banks stopped artificially inflating metrics. 📉
