What else did the analysts report? Shah and Moss write:

“We expect stablecoin adoption and use for payments to increase significantly over the next several years as financial institutions explore digital asset custody and trading solutions and as payments companies incorporate blockchain technology into their platforms.”

The analysts stressed that until a CBDC is released, the responsibility for existing forms of digital currency will lie with individuals, such as commercial banks. Earlier, the Fed issued a detailed report stating that the digital dollar has the potential to fundamentally change the US financial system.
