Lipis Advisors in partnership with Crunchfish released today the third white paper in the series “Enabling offline payments in an online world” with the title “Privacy considerations”. A webinar covering the key insights of the whitepaper will be held tomorrow morning streamed live at 8 am CET / 11.30 IST.

Increased digitalization, cash displacement, and the introduction of CBDCs raise many thought-provoking questions for society. What role should payment market infrastructures play in safeguarding privacy? Is privacy a human right or a luxury good? Above all, it is important for payment system operators not to simply take the current privacy framework as a given and to evaluate how they can play a role as thought leaders in this area. Enhancing the privacy features of existing payment methods is important as many studies have shown that privacy concerns can have a significant impact on users’ willingness to use or adopt digital payment methods or services.

This whitepaper will be followed up with a webinar streamed live on May 12th at 8 am CET / 11.30 IST. Watch the video trailer for this webinar and register following this link. The webinar will be live streamed on Zoom and LinkedIn, it will also be recorded. All webinars in the series are available here.

The webinar will start with a short presentation of the white paper, followed by moderated Q&A with a panel and the audience. In the panel for the third webinar is Payment expert David Tercero at Lipis Advisors, Anne-Sophie Gógl, CBDC privacy expert, Digital Euro Association and Crunchfish CEO Joachim Samuelsson. The webinar is moderated by Johan Wester.

The previous two white papers in the series Enabling offline payments in an online world focused on offline payment design and security.

A special Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) supplement An Inflection Point for Global Payments: Industry Perspectives in 2023 has been released today to showcase case studies and perspectives from industry experts. Crunchfish provided the article Central banks should modernize payments. Who else would? This is also the topic of Crunchfish presentation in May 2023 at the upcoming Digital Currency Conference in Mexico City.

Currency Research have today released An Inflection Point for Global Payments: Industry Perspectives in 2023. It is a special feature showcasing several timely case studies, expert perspectives, and relevant solutions for Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) from Crunchfish, Discover Global Network, NPCI International, ProgressSoft, RTGS.global, StoneX Global Payments, and Visa. This feature will be provided to all delegates at the upcoming Digital Currency Conference on May 17-19th.

In this feature Crunchfish presented the article: Central banks should modernize payments. Who else would? Public goods like the internet, electricity or telecom are carefully designed to continue working despite temporary outages. It is hard to understand why digital payments is not as robust as it should be given its critical role in modern societies. Technology exists that makes digital payment services as robust, secure, and inclusive as cash payments. Crunchfish argue that financial regulators should demand that payment services must fulfill these design criteria to be allowed to operate in the country. Also, central banks should take it upon themselves to modernize payments. CBDC presents the perfect opportunity. Crunchfish CEO Joachim Samuelsson will present this topic at the Digital Currency Conference in Mexico City.
