CBDCs and crypto should coexist, not compete — CoinDCX co-founder
Sumit Gupta shares insights on India’s approach to CBDCs and private cryptocurrencies, emphasizing the need for balanced regulation.
India’s regulatory position on cryptocurrencies and central bank digital currencies continues to fuel debate, with recent discussions suggesting CBDCs could have an edge over “private cryptocurrencies.”
In an Oct. 23 X post, Sumit Gupta, the co-founder and CEO of CoinDCX, argued that CBDCs and cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC) serve different purposes and “shouldn’t be viewed as competitors.”
His post prompted responses from the crypto community, with some warning that CBDCs could resemble “digital fiat,” potentially carrying the same inflationary risks as traditional currencies.
