Japan's central bank is advocating for a comprehensive approach to designing the future global currency system, according to Foresight News. Vice Governor Ryozo Himino emphasized at the Japan Society of Monetary Economics annual meeting that the options should not be limited to central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and stablecoins. He suggested that tokenized bank deposits and blockchain-based central bank reserves should also be considered. Himino noted that the United States has banned the issuance of CBDCs, opting instead to promote stablecoins to strengthen the dollar's status as a global reserve currency. Meanwhile, Europe is advancing the digital euro to address regional fragmentation in the retail payment system. These differing approaches highlight the need for a currency system design that considers technological feasibility, social costs, user convenience, financial stability, and monetary policy. Japan is preparing for both paths, having introduced stablecoin legislation and advancing a CBDC pilot project. The Bank of Japan has launched a 'sandbox project' to explore the technical feasibility of tokenizing central bank reserves for blockchain payment settlements. Analysts suggest that incorporating blockchain technology into reserve settlements could enable real-time clearing around the clock and reduce settlement congestion risks during stress scenarios.

On May 17, Clemens Fuest, Director of the renowned German think tank Ifo Institute for Economic Research, expressed concerns in an interview with a CCTV reporter about the impact of U.S. and Israeli military actions against Iran on Germany's economic recovery. According to Jin10, Fuest highlighted that Germany, being a highly export-oriented economy, is currently facing economic challenges due to U.S. tariff policies. He noted that Germany's economic level has stagnated at the 2019 level, marking the seventh consecutive year of stagnation. The recent military actions have disrupted the anticipated economic rebound for Germany this year, which was expected to be driven by government spending and borrowing. As a result, Germany's economic growth is projected to be weak, estimated at around 0.6% for this year. Fuest also mentioned that while Germany is not currently facing shortages in natural gas or other energy supplies, the obstruction of shipping in the Strait of Hormuz poses risks to global energy stability, affecting global industrial and supply chains. This situation further threatens Germany's economic recovery.
