Government-backed digital money to represent $213B in payments by 2030
The global value of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) will grow dramatically from $100 million today to $213 billion by 2030, once the virtual money gains greater adoption for domestic payments, according to new data from Juniper Research.
By 2030, 92% of the total value transacted through CBDCs around the world will be paid domestically, as cross-border payment systems face an uphill battle for adoption, Juniper predicted.

EA promise to “do better” after their first Sims Summit “did not fairly represent” players
EA held their first Behind The Sims Summit last week, revealing plenty of Sims updates, including a very early look at the next game in the series, Project Rene. Despite this big news, discussion around the event has focused on EA’s lack of community representation, as they only included one “black simmer” onscreen during a stream full of other content creators. Black content creators have been a significant part of The Sims’ online presence for years, creating custom content, mods and more.
EA apologises for first Behind The Sims Summit, “did not fairly represent players”
EA recently held its first Nintendo Direct-like event Behind The Sims Summit, and has issued an apology after only featuring one “black simmer.”
Last week EA shared a few announcements related to its life-sim series, including a very early look at the next game, currently titled Project Rene. The Sims is known for having quite a big and proactive community, with Sims content creators often actually brought in for consulting work, and frequently featured in events like these. Except as pointed out by streamer Ebonix, there was only a single black simmer featured in the presentation.
In turn, the official Sims Twitter account quoted Ebonix’s tweet providing a statement in which it said, “Our creator segments during the Behind The Sims Summit did not fairly represent our vast community of players. Black Simmers deserve to feel seen in all that we do at The Sims, so we’re holding ourselves accountable to this mistake and will do better moving forward.”
