The council discussed current domestic and global economic conditions, as well as emerging challenges and possible solutions. The directors also consider various aspects of Bitcoin and the Central Bank’s digital currency (CBDC).

According to the Economic Times, the RBI said it would prefer a total ban on cryptocurrencies, stressing that a partial ban would not work.

Cryptocurrency and regulation of the official draft law for digital currency 2021 are to be debated in Lok Sabhaf. The government regulates crypto assets, with the Securities and Exchange Commission of India (SEBI) acting as the primary regulator while banning the use of cryptocurrencies for payments. Rumor has it that the government is still working on the bill and will introduce it during the budget meeting.

Meanwhile, RBI is developing a digital rupee that will be implemented in phases. “We will publish a pilot, whichever is available first,” said RBI Deputy Governor T. Rabi Sankar.
