Maximilian Henning<p>The EU is working on a <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/DigitalEuro" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DigitalEuro</span></a>. The Commission already published its proposal last year, the <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/EUCouncil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EUCouncil</span></a> is currently discussing its version. But what are they talking about?

The documents show that <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/Italy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Italy</span></a>, <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/Portugal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Portugal</span></a> and <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/Lithuania" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lithuania</span></a> were sceptical with this idea.</p><p>- On the other hand, <a href="https://darmstadt.social/tags/France" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>France</span></a> recently published a non-paper in which it calls for extending the exemptions to all "proximity" payments, so for example payments in stores. Why?

Erik Jonker<p>Digital Euro is a typical EU-project that moves slowly but steadily.<br>Very important in my view, we need a digital euro that conforms to our laws, standards and principles.
