The regulator also noted that it operates independently of other government agencies and does not participate in any digital currency or stablcoin projects. The National Bank did not authorize the use of its name or assets in either advertising or legal materials of such initiatives.
The National Bank urged not to trust unverified information and not to spread rumors that could mislead the public and financial market participants.
