The Central Bank of the Russian Federation: Russians are not interested in the digital ruble.

The Russians were not interested in the digital ruble. The central bank itself announced this. In two months only 300 thousand wallets were opened. Considering the fact that the population of the country is 146 million people. And there are even fewer operations - only 235 thousand. As experts point out, people open digital wallets out of curiosity, try a new product and return to their regular cards. The digital ruble has no cashback or interest on the balance, which means there are no significant incentives to use it instead of regular banking products.
