Technical Analysis of ETH/USD for 29 May 2020

Crypto Industry News:
The Chinese People's Bank (PBoC) explained that there is still no "schedule" for the official launch of the digital yuan. In an interview published on the central bank's website, the president of PBoC, Yi Gang, was asked about the official date of the introduction of the central bank's digital currency, to which he replied:

"These tests are routine digital research and development (R&D) work. No official release schedule has been disclosed."

The pilot test referred to by Gang was carried out in the cities of Shenzhen, Suzhou, the new Xiongan area, Chengdu and the future site of the Winter Olympic Games.

Shortly after the publication of the interview, a local state-controlled media center published an article suggesting that China could accelerate the implementation of its CBDC to counter the potential financial threat from the United States and manage the financing of aid after the COVID-19 crisis.

According to Cao, the digital currency controlled by the central bank would allow the government to track aid money and make sure it reaches companies in need. As part of COVID-19 economic damage control, China is reportedly intending to raise its deficit to GDP ratio to more than 3.6% and propose a tax reduction of 2.5 trillion yuan ($ 353 billion) for businesses this year.
