Regulated digital cash refers to a digital currency issued or backed by a central authority, subject to specific governmental oversight and legal frameworks. This includes central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and highly regulated stablecoins that maintain a stable value against a fiat currency. Its purpose is to provide a secure, reliable, and compliant digital medium of exchange. Such digital cash aims to integrate the benefits of digital payments with the stability of traditional money.
