I just received word from one of my higher ups to prepare for a rollout of a country-wide digital Rand. Apparently the goal is to have the digital Rand used by most if not all the banks here, as a way to transact quicker and with less cost.
This digital Rand will be issued on a public blockchain and all transactions will be traceable on a public ledger.
I researched a bit and there is no breaking news about this yet, but I did see that there were some articles from months ago hinting that this was coming.
Ask me anything and I'll try to answer without revealing too much before the news comes out officially.

It's been in testing for a while. the idea is not new and has been in concept for years. Initial tests were done on a private instance of a blockchain called Ethereum but there were latency and tps issues, so this year the big guys were looking for something better and now found one.

You seem genuine and not a LARP but I’ll explain why this won’t work and unlikely to happen in SA.
1. corrupt massively indebted government that wants a currency it can produce unlimited amounts of.
2. Instability , inflation and speculation would make pricing of goods and services a literal nightmare
3. The cost of mining a “limited supply” crypto as a sovereign legal tender would be overwhelming and prohibitably costly in a country were electricity supply is unreliable and has black outs.
4. How would banks even be able to create crypto for loans as they do with fiat now, what happens to existing loans and debt.

You are very mistaken about what a digital Rand actually entails... it is not creating something out of thin air. Every digital Rand will be backed 1 for 1 with a Rand that is in a treasury and cannot be circulated unless a digital Rand is redeemed and vice versa.

All a digital Rand is doing is simplifying transactions for businesses and banks by reducing time and cost. It is not meant to replace the Rand.

you realize that if it's not using proof of work to mint coins it's a clear scam

>> No.15793844

>>15793801
there is no need to mine this coin.
How it works is, a set amount of Rand is placed in an account in reserves, and the same amount of said coin is minted in an instant.
The amount of coin that is minted and corresponds to the locked away Rand is circulatory, while the Rand is not circulatory in the treasury. But the coin can be redeemed 1 for 1 with the Rand and has the same value. If a coin is redeemed for Rand, the coin will then be taken out of circulation and the Rand will be circulatory again.
Does this help explain it?

There will be periodical audits to ensure that the "locked away" Rand matches up to the digital Rand.
Also if the central bank decides to lie about the reserves you can consider this country dead.

>>15793868
A digital Rand will actually simplify a lot of things here. From paying goods to sending money between banks. The transaction fees for sending a digital Rand will be very small, pretty much negligible from what I'm told. Think cents per transaction, which would be a 100-1000x decrease in cost.

>>15793880

In the future who knows if the physical Rand is phased out, but as of now it seems it would be far away if it were to even happen. A digital currency is still very new.

Also to anyone talking about specific crypto coins, I will not confirm or deny any names.
I'd rather discuss the implications of this happening (i.e. how it would affect the economy of SA, or even other countries if they were to also adopt a digital currency).

I'm excited about the concept because it's showing that SA is open to tech innovation and moving forward.

Will foreign currencies (ie USD) be able to be exchanged internationally for this digital rand or will it be kept quarantined to SA area only during initial widespread testing?
The first stock exchange that begins using digital currency will change the game in a blink of the eye.
The potential for laundering, digitilizing, transfers etc could cause an economic boom seeing as how the rand is a widely accepted currency if everywhere that accepts normal rands will accept digital then either other digital currencies will be rolled out to keep pace and/or the rand will once more become a global mainstay currency just due to being digital.

It seems like the main bet the central SA banks are taking here is that while the option is present to trade digiRand for physical rands, theyre betting the majority wont bother or want to.

If you guys would like to do more research, this article was posted just now.

"In a letter sent to Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, Rep. French Hill (R-Ark.) and Rep. Bill Foster (D-Ill.) outline concerns they have about risks to the U.S. dollar if another country or private company creates a widely used cryptocurrency, and ask whether the central bank is looking into creating its own version."

Looks like the US got the memo. :-)

SA is still a global agricultural powerhouse, not to mention a petridish of sorts for testing various social and economic ideas, plans, and agendas. Always has been especially macrosocial engineering experiments. Not many decades ago did the rand rival the usd and pound so the potential boom behind being the first central bank backed cryptocurrency in addition to the implications of a digital currency makes sense itd have the US closely monitoring. Without mentioning the recent large influx of chinese presence within all parts of SA.

>>15796579
Fuck, I think it just clicked for me.
The idea is to elevate the value of the digi version of a currency higher than that of the physical version by having a set limited amount of the digi, so in time as the digi becomes more useful with there being only a set amount of digi partitioned off from the oversaturated physical that its based/backed of the digi's value will slowly rise above its foundation currency while never dipping below the physical foundations base value.
As the physical currency amount in circulation continues to increase as long as the digi's doesnt increase at the same rate the digi should stay above the physi.
Its a global debt solution via exploit combined with the desired switch from physical to digital currencies.

How long before they outlaw physical cash? I imagine lots of people rely on physical cash in SA still but that didn't stop India recently. I do believe something like this is inevitably the future of currency since it ticks all the right boxes for the government. Any government would love to have a permanent record of every transaction ever, no way to hide from the tax man.

Algorand having a similar name doesn't have anything to do with the ZAR. If you look up the few most recent Fantom medium articles there's a direct mention of a South African bank using a fantom statheros stablecoin mainnet coming soon. This was kept quiet until regulatory approval was given and everything is now on track, assumably the bank is now doing internal testing on a private network and as soon as they and the fantom team are sure things are working 100% perfectly we'll see more information with regard to how the fantom coin will be used on this network and if staking will be available to the public and so forth. Once the public fantom mainnet with the new stairdag consensus goes live, we should see dapps being developed or ported from Ethereum. There is still a long way to go in terms of developing a huge fantom powered ecosystem, but having a financial institution with a vested interest could be fucking huge.
These markets are irrational and manipulated so this could dump hard in the coming months especially if BTC shits the bed. I'm committed to DCAing into this twice a week and have buy orders set in case of sudden drops.
I don't have a final amount of money I want to have in FTM, I just want to stack as much of it as I can so I can sell decent amounts when it inevitably starts to rise again.
I know people larp a lot here, believe me if you want, doesn't matter. I made most of my crypto money from mined BTC in the GPU days and trying to find good undervalued projects like this. I hit big with ETH and NEO and now I'm treating this as a fun hobby to replace my gambling addiction.
I could lose every single cent I have in FTM and I wouldn't flinch, so if you're risk averse, nobody should force-feed you the thousandth shitcoin shill pasta of the week just for asking questions.

Fantom doesnt run off of ethereum it's it's own thing. New from- scratch blog DAG architecture with aBFT (Lachesis) consensus which permits all different nodes to work on different operations at the same time vs eth where all nodes must work on same problem at once.

Exactly. Not only does a blockchain-based digital Rand lower transaction costs and speeds, it does reduce counterfeiting issues. Each digital Rand can be checked that it's legitimate by verifying the token contract address character by character.

Its to put tech on the same pedestal religion currently is viewed upon but more so to make it so that people are unable to hold what theyve earned in their hands.

Why is it necessary for the central bank to back the crypto with Fiat 1:1, when the Fiat is well, Fiat that they control the supply and issuance of? If South Africa is anything like the US, then the currency is issued without any backing already, and way more of it is digital in bank legers as ones and zeros than actual paper. Also this 1:1 banking would limit the ability of banks to do fractional reserve banking, which would negatively affect the profitability of banking, and the economy through reduced lending and unprofitable finance companies that are now unable to invest. Also auditing the backing of the crypto would just add a layer of complexity and cost, why wouldn't they just control the total supply of Rand and crypto and Rand in banks legers since the currency is already arbitrary? There are a few things here that don't add up to me OP. Please explain.

Simple. In current systems, paper money is costly to move and transact with. A few dollars fee for a transaction may not seem like a lot, but it adds up when transacting millions and millions.
By issuing 1:1 parity digital money, it simplifies the whole process, from physically moving money, to the fees associated with moving said money.

What I'm saying is that money is sent bank to bank, but it's not physical money, it's digital, but it's not cryptographic. So if South Africa is like the US, only 10 percent of the total circulating supply of Rand could be converted to crypto Rand under 1:1 backing with paper Rand. And this would remove all paper and coins from the circulating supply, 90 percent of the circulating supply would be non physical non crypto.
