Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

China continues to test its digital yuan across various regions, with the date of its country-wide release coming closer and closer. At the same time, the local financial institutions are coming up with their inventions for storing and keeping the coins. Such is the new biometric hardware wallet that was just revealed by one of the country’s banks.

Biometric Crypto Wallet for China’s CBDC

The news about the wallet was first reported by the news agency Xinhua, which revealed that the Postal Savings Bank of China has created a biometric hardware wallet. The wallet allows users to easily verify their identities when accessing the funds stored within via a simple fingerprint sensor.

More than that, Beijing-based users who are participating in the digital yuan trial will also be able to access healthcare service via the same wallet card.
