<p data-block-id="242aac7f-832c-4387-a973-5a2ca146fade">There will be two tiers to the implementation of the digital shekel. It will include offline capacity, many payment options, and round-the-clock instant transactions. Additionally, the digital shekels will feature built-in balance limitations. Several countries have launched CBDCs. But, Israel’s digital shekel differs due to its interest-bearing abilities. This means the CBDC can appeal to both users and investors.</p>

So, critics believe CBDCs could grant governments access to private details of users. The Bank of Israel addressed these concerns in its announcement. The CBDC’s design restricts the central bank from accessing personal data. Also, the central bank would have no access to the balances and transactions of consumers. This ensures and promotes privacy.</p>
<p data-block-id="ec386c1c-4892-45e0-a366-d4ca54c3dd90" data-pm-slice="1 1 []">The digital shekel’s ability to provide interest adds a new dimension to the CBDC market. It would enable banks to incorporate fiat shekel deposits into their short-term liquidity. However, without charging interest.</p>
<p data-block-id="d5e5f4a8-bc8d-4e79-b0fc-977f513d57b9">Interestingly, commercial banks in Israel have a 4.86% interest rate on such accounts. Additionally, Israel’s CBDC data format will enable the application of user-customized interest. It would also support holding restrictions.</p>
