The Zimbabwean economy is experiencing fluctuations, causing the Zimbabwe Dollar to lose value compared to other currencies. This poses challenges for the country in maintaining stability and managing inflation.
In response to these challenges, the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe introduced a number of measures including the Zimbabwe Gold (ZiG) digital tokens. According to the central bank, ZiG serves as both a means of payment for domestic transactions and a store of value. The RBZ says since its introduction on October 5, 2023, ZiG has been widely accepted in the economy. Its use as a medium of exchange and a value-preserving instrument contributes to digitisation, financial inclusion, and the overall stability of the local currency. The auction rate does not yet show signs of stability of the Zimbabwean dollar though.
