At the moment, the organizers made a commitment to investigate into “privacy, programmability, auditability, and interoperability and more” in future research.
Project Hamilton Concluded That Even Weeks After The Legislators:
By pointing out that OpenCBDC has achieved a system throughout of 1.84 mn transactions every second, the Fed also suggested that development on the project had proceeded. That is most likely using the non-blockchain variant, which as of Feb was capable of 1.7 mn transactions every second. At that time, 170k transactions per second were being handled using the blockchain version.
The writers of the letter raised worry about unfair benefits for study participants in upcoming CBDC growth and inquired about the participation of private companies in the study. They also inquired as to how the initiative handled privacy concerns. They asked for written replies but didn’t offer a timeframe.
