Digital currencies and bank deposits

The conference examines how digital currencies, including central bank digital currencies, could affect deposits, lending and the way monetary policy works. Co-Pierre Georg of the Frankfurt School of Finance & Management will ask whether different forms of digital money could fragment financial infrastructure.

At 11:00, Michael Theurer of Deutsche Bundesbank will discuss the supervision of stablecoins, tokenized assets and decentralized finance.

Stablecoins and AI agents

Raša Karapandža will ask whether AI agents would choose stablecoins when making payments. Jan-Niklas Möller and Paul Wagner will discuss how blockchain can help verify information that AI agents use. The final panel will consider what these developments mean for European economic sovereignty.
