CBDCs promise to speed up existing systems but are unlikely to change the direction central banks have already been taking.

The Saga token (SGA) is a recently launched digital currency with ambitious goals of one day becoming a global currency. SGA’s reserve value is held in the same configuration as the International Monetary Fund (IMF)’s special drawing rights (SDR), which was defined and maintained to diversify central banks’ currency reserves. Most pundits consider Saga the main challenger to Facebook’s as-yet-to-be launched Libra coin.

The most essential difference between Libra and Saga is governance mechanism. In Saga, the owners of the currency and its "fate" so to speak are the SGA holders. Saga has a built-in democracy to prevent the case of plutocracy.

A stabilized coin, together with Bitcoin, might be the answer to fiat currency hyperinflation, says the founder of Saga.

With ongoing talks of Central Bank Digital Currencies and now even a possible digital dollar, tokenization continues to be a hot topic both in the crypto world and in traditional finance. It’s been a buzzword in the financial industry for a while now, and the concept is being explored by startups, established institutions and governments alike, through centralized and decentralized blockchain technology.

To be fair, they’ve been mostly proven right, since crypto investments do have a tendency to rise when the economy slows and people grow fearful about their financial safety.

With the coronavirus showing no signs of letting up, and global markets responding accordingly, the search for safe haven assets intensifies.

As of today, users will be able to seamlessly purchase the Saga token (SGA) - the first global, stabilised, digital currency controlled by its holders - with credit or debit card through Carbon's on-ramp product, Fiber.

Cryptocurrencies are sweeping the world in terms of news headlines but how should institutional investors react? Opinion on cryptoassets is polarised even if the ‘plumbing’, in the form of blockchain technology, is now widely accepted.
