John Kiff on 05 Jul 23Canadian personal wealth management firm WealthRocket published the results of a survey of 1,500 Canadian adults on their attitudes towards retail central bank digital currency (CBDC). More than half said they would be willing, to varying degrees, to use a CBDC. Of that total, 43% are somewhat willing, 11% are very willing, and 5% are extremely willing. A quarter of respondents, on the other hand, say they're not at all willing to use a central bank digital currency in Canada. And 16% say they don't understand enough to make a decision right now, suggesting a gap in public awareness.
