How to Buy Cryptocurrency in Sweden

Buying cryptocurrency in Sweden

Buying cryptocurrency in Sweden Sweden is one step away from completely eliminating cash from its society. In December of 2020, the country�s central bank (Riksbank) announced a review which will research the possibility of introducing a central bank digital currency (CBDC). A former chairwoman of the Riksbank� finance committee, Anna Kinberg Batra, will lead the study. It is estimated that the study will end in November 2022. The country�s transition to digital currency has only been accelerated by the pandemic. Furthermore, the Riksbank estimated that cash usage is currently very low in Sweden (less than 10%), making it an ideal candidate for the world�s first cashless society. The transition could�ve also been accelerated because of hacks and frauds. For example, QuickBit, a Swedish digital currency exchange, reported a data breach on their customer databases in 2019. Nevertheless, Sweden is determined to fully explore what effects the issuing of a CBDC might have on its economy.
