Project Hangang was a bounded pilot of wholesale-CBDC infrastructure and tokenized bank deposits, planned for seven banks and up to 100,000 participants from April through June 2025.
What this does not establish
The pilot was not a national retail-CBDC or tokenized-deposit market launch.
Counterevidence & uncertainty
Planned caps do not prove completed participation, sustained use or production reliability.
What would change the reading
Update on Phase 2 specification, production launch, legal basis, actual participation and error/outcome data.
