The Digital Yuan, a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) of the People’s Republic of China, has demonstrated impressive growth in transactions. Recently, it was announced that the CBDC had surpassed popular stablecoins USDC and USDT in activity, achieving transaction volumes of over  $1 trillion, equivalent to 7 trillion yuan. 

This milestone highlights China’s commitment to innovation in the financial sector and its position as a key player in developing digital currencies. It also showcases the increasing influence and adoption of the Digital Yuan compared to other virtual assets.
