This is a key point. CBDCs have no intrinsic overlap with blockchain or crypto currencies. You could use a blockchain as part or all of the strategy for storing the data of your currency but you could do it without using these concepts at all. The more likely scenario here is that blockchains will not be used here. People should not confuse CBDCs with crypto. They are unrelated concepts. |

One does need a decentralized ledger for CBDC, high performance databases are quite acceptable, as there is no problem of lack of trust in a permissined model (no systematic bad actor). If you listen to Moser (and Chaum) video, he even states somewhere the unnecessity of DLTs for retail CBDCs.
There are still some benefits but not worth to bet against the blockchain trilemma in these early stages.
