Abstract

As the globe continues to enter the digital age, the use of digital currencies will only increase. In 2018, the e-payments industry generated record-breaking worldwide revenues of $1.9 trillion. The question pondershow Digital Currencies Will Shape the Future of the Banking System in Afghanistan. Obviously, online banking is swift and facilities easy transactions; however, there are challenges to decentralizing some currencies like cryptocurrency. The digital transaction also facilitates cash outflow, and the central bank loses control over the country’s financial system. Money laundering (Hawala) leads to cash outflow; on the other hand, international trade needs a swift banking system. There are ostensible challenges. Most of the Afghan citizens do not have a bank account, and the majority lack English and soft skills to operate online banking inday-to-day business dealings. The current study elaborates on how digital currencies are feasible with the traditional banking system and Afghanistan, and the study is limited to the Banking and digital premise.
