Chinese tech hub Shenzhen said Thursday it would distribute over 10 million yuan ($1.5 million) to citizens as part of a broader pilot test for its national digital currency, reported local news outlet CGTN.
The move would help stimulate public consumption and test demand for the Chinese digital currency, officially called the Digital Currency Electronic Payment (DCEP).
Funding the test is Shenzhen's Luohu District, which will distribute the DCEP to 50,000 recipients through a “lottery” system, the report said. They can then use the digital currency at a reported 3,389 merchants, such as restaurants, supermarkets, gas stations, metro stations, department stores, and other everyday businesses.
Recipients can avail the lottery on wallets developed by local banks, including the People’s Bank of China, the country’s central bank. “Just need to download a DCEP wallet, there are four wallets developed by the major 4 commercial banks,” noted Mo Li, head of marketing for crypto wallet app HashKey Hub.

Similar pilot runs of the DCEP have already been conducted in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, of which Shenzhen is a part.
The People’s Bank of China (PBoC) has processed over three million transactions—worth 1.1 billion yuan ($162 million) as part of its trial of the DCEP (Digital Currency, Electronic Payment), its pilot for a central bank digital currency (CBDC). Speaking at virtual conference Sibos 2020 on Monday, the PBoC’s deputy governor Fan Yi Fei noted that, “An aggregate of 113,300 personal digital wallets and 8,859 corporate digital wallets have been opened […] up until late August.” Join Fan Yi Fei, Depu...
Meanwhile, Chinese businesses like local ridesharing giant DiDi commenced DCEP tests for taxi payments in July, but the upcoming wide-scale distribution to Shenzhen residents is among the first such instances.
The tests are part of China’s broader plans to incorporate digital currencies within its economic framework, as it looks to reduce its reliance on the US dollar. Reports suggest the country plans to fully launch the DCEP before the start of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, figuring out all the nitty-gritty before that time. And it's seemingly on track thus far.
Publicly traded Brazilian fintech company Méliuz has dubbed itself the South American's first Bitcoin treasury company after spending over $28 million on the cryptocurrency. Méliuz, a Brazilian household name that offers customers cashback coupons and trades on the country's oldest stock exchange (B3: CASH3), first announced its plans to buy Bitcoin in March, sending its stock soaring. And on Friday, after announcing it had snapped up 274.52 BTC for $28.4 billion, at an average price of $101,7...
Ukraine may be planning a strategic state crypto reserve, according to reports by local media. If it follows through, it would potentially join nations like El Salvador, Bhutan, and the U.S.—who all already have reserves. Yaroslav Zhelezniak, the country’s first deputy chairman of its Committee on Finance, Tax and Customs Policy, told local crypto publication Incrypted that he plans to submit a new bill for approval “in the near future,” claiming the bill is in the finalization stage. Kirill Kho...
A growing number of companies are launching Solana tokens as a way to circumvent traditional fundraising methods. Tokens linked to these companies are hitting market capitalizations in the millions or even tens of millions—despite growing concern that many of their products are “vaporware.” “Internet capital markets is itself a powerful meme, and it’s among the most significant and OG meta-narratives and use cases for crypto,” Alon Cohen, co-founder of Pump.fun, told Decrypt. “In principle, it r...
