Euro digitale: istruzioni per il prossimo uso

In an article published on doppiozero.com, Alfredo Gigliobianco, a former Bank of Italy employee with 35 years of experience, explores the concept of the digital euro. He admits that even he, despite his background, initially struggled to understand it, and only after lengthy conversations with experts did he feel prepared to explain it. The article argues that the digital euro is not merely a technical matter but is fundamentally about the future of Europe. Gigliobianco begins by addressing the philosophical nature of money, noting that from elementary school through high school, people are taught that money is a good like any other, but he suggests this view is incomplete. The piece, co-authored with Anita Romanello, was published on March 11, 2026, and aims to demystify the digital euro for a general audience, emphasizing its broader implications for European sovereignty and economic policy.
