ABSTRACT

In June 2019, Facebook announced its own cryptocurrency “Libra” to be used through WhatsApp and Messenger, in order for its value to remain stable thanks to the support from banks and electronic commerce companies, linking to different currencies and the support of important companies. EU antitrust regulators investigated it as a “threat to monetary sovereignty”. China is already testing its own DCEP cryptocurrency tied to state banks and major companies, with notable advantages. It will probably displace cash and be used even for world trade, which can make it an alternative to the traditional international payment system, compared to the current one led by the United States with the USD. The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) offers “the area and the route” to extend the Yen as a global digital currency. These new developments, and their rapid and high competitiveness produced as the “art of bian lian”, have generated intense concerns in the international financial system. Will the EU, Japan or the US be able to counter the virtual yuan so quickly?

Los reguladores antimonopolio de la UE lo investigaron como “amenaza a la soberanía monetaria”. China ya se encuentra probando su propia criptomoneda DCEP vinculada a bancos estatales e importantes empresas, con notables ventajas. Probablemente desplazará el dinero en efectivo y se utilizará incluso para el comercio mundial, lo que puede convertirla en una por Estados Unidos con el USD. La Iniciativa (BRI) ofrece “la franja y la ruta” para extender el Yen como una moneda digital global. Estos nuevos desarrollos, y su rápida y alta competitividad producida como el “arte de bian lian”, han generado intensas preocupaciones en el sistema financiero internacional. ¿Podrán la UE, Japón o EEUU contrarrestar con tanta rapidez el yuan virtual?
