Central Bank Digital Currency🧨

#prelims2026 #important

CBDC is a digital form of Fiat Currency which can be transacted using wallets backed by blockchain & is regulated by the central bank. Thus it is a legal tender issued in a digital form.

👉RBI has proposed amendments to the RBI Act, 1934, which would enable it to launch a CBDC, thus enhancing the scope of the definition of ‘bank note’ to include currency in digital form.

👉Can be converted to traditional currency. Appears on RBI's Balance sheet.

🧨|UPSC can Confuse you here|🧨
Though the concept of CBDCs was directly inspired by bitcoin, it is different from decentralised virtual currencies & crypto assets, which are not issued by the state & lack the ‘legal tender’ status.

📌📌 Web 3.0🧨🧨

World Wide Web, which is also known as a Web, is a collection of websites or web pages stored in web servers & connected to local computers through the internet.

👉Web 3.0 is a decentralized internet to be run on blockchain technology, which would be different from the versions in use, Web 1.0 & Web 2.0.

👉In Web3, users will have ownership stakes in platforms and applications unlike now where tech giants control the platforms.

🧨Note: A very important topic, as Web 3.0 forms the backbone of Blockchain & thus that of Bitcoin!!!
