SHANGHAI China’s commerce ministry said on Friday it will launch a digital currency pilot program in some cities.
These cities include those in the northern Chinese region of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, eastern region of Yangtze River Delta, “Greater Bay Area” around the Pearl River Delta, and some cities in Midwestern China, according to an online statement.
