"Pichai emphasised the controlled nature of the trial. Under the sandbox model, bitcoin would be used for transactions, but recipients wouldn’t handle the cryptocurrency directly. Instead, funds would flow through the system via standard financial transaction processes, ensuring stability."

So are they proposing using BTC as a middleman, with fiat on both ends of the transaction?

I hope only on the recipient end or it’s a complete waste of time.

“ensuring stability” 🤡

No one will use it if they force the customer to use it.

Easier to use cash or even promptpay

Yawn

No #Bitcoin as foreign reserves.. though
