El banco central de Israel dice que el lanzamiento del shekel digital es una 'pregunta abierta'
El banco central de Israel está impulsando sus planes para emitir un shekel digital, citando la necesidad de mejorar los sistemas de pago del país, pero el martes no se comprometió sobre si se lanzaría uno.
Tumblr media
En noviembre de 2021, el Banco de Israel intensificó su investigación y preparación para la posible emisión de un shekel digital para crear un sistema de pagos más eficiente después de considerar por primera vez la emisión de una moneda digital del banco central (CBDC) a finales de 2017.
"Si emitiremos o no un shekel digital sigue siendo una cuestión abierta, como lo es en la mayoría, si no en todas, las demás economías avanzadas", dijo el gobernador del Banco de Israel, Amir Yaron, en una conferencia sobre monedas digitales.
"De cualquier manera, seguimos comprometidos a estar en la frontera, y más que eso, a apoyar el esfuerzo de empujar la frontera, en nuestras exploraciones de CBDC, así como en nuestros esfuerzos por modernizar y hacer avanzar nuestros sistemas de pago… y la sistema financiero en general", dijo Yaron.
El banco central de Israel ha estado experimentando con un shekel digital con su homólogo de Hong Kong y el Banco de Pagos Internacionales. Dijo que el llamado proyecto Sela ha demostrado la viabilidad de una CBDC minorista y "combina accesibilidad, competencia y ciberseguridad preventiva, al tiempo que conserva las ventajas clave del efectivo físico".
Yaron dijo que dada la rápida digitalización de la economía, trabajar en una CBDC tiene sentido y señaló que Israel ha cerrado la brecha con otros países, al tiempo que enfatizó que si Israel opta por una, "proporcionará al menos tanta privacidad como los medios digitales". de pagos" y tal vez incluso un nivel más alto.
El vicegobernador Andrew Abir dijo que para Israel, la emisión de un shekel digital proporcionaría más competencia en un sistema financiero dominado por unos pocos grandes bancos e instituciones.
"La CBDC puede ofrecer igualdad de condiciones en las que los nuevos participantes puedan ofrecer productos financieros", dijo.
Abir dijo que un fuerte aumento de las tasas de interés en el último año demostró esta necesidad, ya que los bancos comerciales no transfirieron completamente los aumentos de las tasas a los saldos de sus clientes, mientras que en sus préstamos la transmisión fue total e inmediata.
"Y ha habido una reacción comprensible por parte del público", dijo Abir, añadiendo que una moneda digital podría beneficiar a los consumidores.
"Creo que los bancos centrales deberían volver a examinar la posibilidad (de) CBDC remuneradas, es decir, que el banco central pague intereses por CBDC directamente a los usuarios finales que las poseen y disfruten de la seguridad proporcionada por el banco central. Este es un tema complicado con muchas implicaciones, y necesitaremos considerarlas a medida que avance el proyecto", dijo Abir.

The Israeli central bank wanted to create a digital shekel (CBDC)
Tumblr media
The Bank of Israel is preparing an action plan for the potential issuance of a digital shekel (SHAKED), despite the fact that a decision has not yet been made as to whether the Bank intends on doing so. The questions of the circumstances under which it would be decided to issue a retail CBDC is a complementary important discussion to the significant work being done on the business and technological specifications. Several scenarios could lead to the creation of a digital shekel: Decline in the legitimate use of cash and its acceptance in transactions in Israel – According to our data, cash is still used in Israel in a significant portion of the consumer transactions. However, it is highly probable that the use of cash as a means of payment will decline in the future, with the expanding adoption of payment applications a

Israel: Shekelul, a treia cea mai depreciată monedă din lume în februarie
Shekelul israelian s-a depreciat cu 6% în februarie, suferind cea mai mare pierdere dintre principalele monede din lume, după rubla rusească și won-ul coreean, pe fondul îngrijorării tot mai mari a investitorilor, în contextul în care guvernul urmărește un proces legislativ extrem de controversat de slăbire a sistemului judiciar. Săptămâna trecută, shekelul a atins cel mai scăzut nivel din…

I may have taken an extended holiday recently, but Israel's innovators and high achievers certainly haven't. The 50 positive articles in my latest newsletter are some of the best, but only a small portion of the great news stories from Israel that were published in the last month.  My apologies if you sent me articles recently - I will try to catch up and include them in a future newsletter.  Meanwhile, I hope that you enjoy reading this selection.
The photo is of another section of the "Am Yisrael Chai" mural at Ben Gurion Airport, featuring 4,000 years of Jewish history.  In a previous email, I included the section featuring early Jewish history.  This week's photo shows the section featuring more recent history, and especially personalities connected with the Modern Jewish State.

Rebel Jewish Coin Dating to Anti-Roman Revolt Discovered in Israel
A rare half-shekel coin dug up in the Ein Gedi nature reserve was inscribed with the words “The Holy Jerusalem” in Hebrew.
A rare half-shekel silver coin from the first year of the First Jewish Revolt against the Romans about two millennia ago has been discovered in the Judean Desert. The rare coin, discovered in the area of the Ein Gedi nature reserve, had the words “The Holy Jerusalem” in ancient Hebrew on the coin’s face.
The coin, dated to 66/67 CE when the Second Temple was destroyed in Jerusalem, was found in the Judean Desert Survey led by the Israel Antiquities Authority together with the Heritage Ministry and the staff officer of the Civil Administration Archaeology Unit in Judea and Samaria carried out over the last six years with the aim of retrieving these ancient finds before the antiquity looters.
Recently, in the course of examining every cave and crack in the rock, Israel Antiquities Authority inspectors reached a cliff in a wadi near En Gedi when they came across the coin on the ground at the entrance of one of the caves.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
One explanation for this find is that the Jerusalem-minted coin fell from the pocket of a rebel who escaped to the desert during the revolt – perhaps on his way to nearby En Gedi.
On one side of the coin, “The Holy Jerusalem” appears – the word “Holy” spelled without a vowel, reflecting the development of the writing on the coins that appeared later on in the Revolt as “The Holy Jerusalem” with the vowel. Three pomegranates are depicted on the center of the coin – a familiar symbol as it was adopted on the old Israeli lira coin that was currency in the State of Israel until 1980.
On the other side of the coin, a chalice (goblet) is depicted, above which the letter “Aleph” appears marking the first year of the outbreak of the Revolt and the value “Half-Shekel.” The chalice is a characteristic symbol on Jewish coins in currency towards the end of the Second Temple period.

Jewish rebels minted their own coins
These coins were minted in the values of shekel and half-shekel at the time of the First Revolt of the Jews against the Romans in Judea between the years 66 to 70 CE.
In line with the Torah commandment prohibiting the depiction of images, the Jews used vegetal motifs and cultic and religious symbols on their coins, while the pagan population depicted symbols such as animals and the portrait of the ruling emperors and the Greek language that was the common language employed at the time.
As part of the Jewish defiance, and the creation of an internal “Jewish Revolt economy,” the rebels minted their own silver and bronze coins depicting Jewish symbols.
The rebels decided to use the archaic Hebrew script that was current several hundred years earlier at the time of the First Temple Period instead of the Greek script that was used by the population in the country and the region at the time of the Second Temple.
The leaders of the Jewish Revolt decided to defy the rulers and to mint silver coins autonomously, using the Hebrew script and without the image of the ruling Emperor. It seems that the coins were minted in Jerusalem, possibly in the Temple area.
According to Yaniv David Levy, the Israel Antiquities Authority’s numismatic scholar, “coins from the first year of the Revolt such as this one, are rare. During the Second Temple period, Jewish pilgrims used to pay a Temple Tax in half-shekel coins.
For about 200 years, Tyrian-minted coins (tetradrachms from Tyre, which in the Roman Empire took on an unusual role as the medium of payment for the Temple tax in Jerusalem) made of fine silver and a status symbol in the region, were used for this contribution.
In the course of the revolt the rebels minted alternative coins inscribed with “Shekel Israel,” “Half-Shekel,” and “Quarter-Shekel” coins. It seems that the rituals in the Temple continued during the revolt and these coins were now used by the rebels.
