Digital tenge – will tenge save?

Digital tenge will be used to pay for at least 100 large projects in Kazakhstan. We are talking about projects funded from the budget and the National Fund. This became known during a government meeting. Experts admit that, on the one hand, such a currency will help control government spending. On the other hand, there are risks of data leakage. When are they planning to fully implement the currency? And how much do we need it?
