Digital money standards are agreed-upon rules and specifications for the creation, transfer, and management of digital forms of currency. These standards encompass technical protocols, interoperability requirements, security mandates, and regulatory compliance guidelines for various digital monetary instruments, including central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and stablecoins. Their establishment aims to ensure consistency, reliability, and broad acceptance across different platforms and jurisdictions. Such frameworks are essential for the orderly evolution of the digital economy.
