As the issuer of banknotes, the sole risk-free asset in the financial system, Central Banks are Boom’s Liquidity Provider partners and the custodians of the cash deposits that serve as 1-to-1 collateral for all the tokenised currencies within the Boom DeFi Ecosystem. Thus, all transactions within Boom are ultimately settled in central bank money via RTGS interoperability with the Boom blockchain.
