Abstract A Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) represents a digital version of a nation's official currency, utilizing Decentralized Ledger Technology (DLT). The growing interest in CBDCs has raised concerns about how to validate user identities to meet regulatory requirements while safeguarding user privacy within the CBDC Network. This research explores the concept of Self-Sovereign Identities (SSI) as a means for users to maintain complete control over the credentials issued by trusted Financial Institutions within a CBDC Governance Framework. These credentials can then be employed by their owners to create privacy-preserving evidence, enabling them to authenticate themselves with various service providers within the CBDC Network. | |
