There is no reason for CBDC to use blockchain.
I stand corrected. There is literally no functional difference between "currency" and (at least some) crypto.
How much energy is required for use of each?
A CBDC can be blockchain based, but almost none actually will be. China's isn't. Japan's CBDC is not. In the US, the Federal Reserve is still in early stages but I'm confident it won't use blockchain either.
