KUALA LUMPUR: Bank Negara will continue monitoring the evolving digital asset landscape in 2025. While the central bank has no intention to recognise cryptoassets as legal tender, its focus remains on managing monetary and financial stability risks while preserving the integrity of the financial system.

“At the same time, Bank Negara aims to support responsible innovation through asset tokenisation in the financial sector. This will be alongside exploration work of domestic and cross-border CBDC as well as emerging technologies.
