The central bank is not considering its implementation in the near future. The purpose of the ongoing experiments is to catch up with new technical features involving blockchain technology, if the need for a CBDC arises.
The CBDC idea has not received significant support due to the prevalence of internet banking services, credit card usage and e-money payment tools. The public may not find it attractive to use the CBDC since private sector-based payment tools provide tangible benefits — for example, points that can be gained from using payment services which can be accumulated and used for shopping or payment for other services.
