ATLANTA, GEORGIA, UNITED STATES, November 23, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Tom Meredith, the founder and CEO of UberFi, a blockchain technology company experienced in Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) development, was profiled last week in a highly respected technology publication – Architecture & Governance Magazine.

The magazine hails Meredith as a “technology leader” in the article, noting that he “has caught the attention of the central bank community.”

Meredith said he was honored to appear in the annals of the 15-year-old publication, which is read by a wide-ranging global audience, ranging from C-level executives to IT architects. He added that the timing is appropriate given the growing appetite of the world’s central banks.

“Countries that delay creating their own stable coin risk falling behind to the detriment of their own people,” said Meredith. “Embracing stable coin technology now will give them a competitive advantage over the rest of the world.”

Specifically, countries that implement a digital-first approach in their currency and financial markets will experience numerous advantages, according to Meredith, including:
• Raise infrastructure capital via Digital Bonds issued to the $2 Trillion digital token industry
• Financial inclusion for all citizens to access financial services without a bank account
• CBDC-based national payment system improves the entire country’s financial efficiency by eliminating money laundering, fraud, tax cheating and accelerating the velocity of money within their economy

UberFi’s patent-pending digital wallet permits that country’s CBDC to be exchanged for many digital and fiat currencies with a simple click of a button. This permits money transfer to over 4 billion mobile phones globally in an instant. CBDC recipients can instantly convert those stable coins into local currency or instantly convertible into widely utilized pre-paid phone minutes to top-up any mobile carrier account, backed by BitMinutes.com

About UberFi

UberFi was founded by Tom Meredith in 2020 to provide Central Banks with a turn-key solution to issue a “stable coin” or digital version of a country’s fiat currency. UberFi also goes further than competitive blockchain technology companies by solving the substantial consumer issue every new payment platform encounters – adoption.

It provides a free mobile wallet to every consumer and retailer, so a Central Bank can issue UberFi’s stable coins as a digital currency that is instantly redeemable at Point-of-Sale for the purchase of goods and services, as well as convertible in real-time to prepaid phone minutes via BitMinutes, UberFi’s sister company. UberFi’s model enables instant use and credibility for every consumer in the country.

UberFi’s combination of centralized/DLT architecture enables Central Banks to raise capital by issuing digitized bond offerings (Bond DeFi) using UberFi’s proprietary interest-bearing Smart Coins.
