在兔年春節(jié)，發(fā)紅包這一中國傳統(tǒng)習(xí)俗正式成為數(shù)字人民幣的應(yīng)用場(chǎng)景之一，使用數(shù)字人民幣也成為多個(gè)地區(qū)市民的購物支付“新風(fēng)尚”。在疫情防控新階段下的首個(gè)春節(jié)，多個(gè)數(shù)字人民幣試點(diǎn)地區(qū)發(fā)放數(shù)字人民幣消費(fèi)紅包，以活躍消費(fèi)市場(chǎng)，提振消費(fèi)需求。

On Jan 22, the first day of the Year of the Rabbit, Li, a citizen of North China's Tianjin, prepared for her daughter what in China is called a "red packet", a monetary gift traditionally given by the elderly to the younger generation during Spring Festival or the start of the Chinese New Year.
1月22日，農(nóng)歷正月初一，天津市民李女士為女兒準(zhǔn)備了一個(gè)“紅包”。在中國春節(jié)，長(zhǎng)輩給晚輩發(fā)紅包是節(jié)日傳統(tǒng)。

Instead of withdrawing cash from a bank and putting it in a red envelope, this year, she chose to use the e-CNY mobile application, passing on her blessing with digital fiat currency.
今年，李女士沒有從銀行取現(xiàn)金包紅包，而是通過手機(jī)數(shù)字人民幣應(yīng)用，為女兒發(fā)了數(shù)字人民幣紅包。

This virtual red packet of 200 yuan ($29.62) has a lively cover with not only lovely animated images on it but also a message carefully selected by the mother: Try not to be bothered. "Red packet of the digital yuan is easy for elderly like me to operate and interesting enough to draw youngsters' attention," Li said.
這個(gè)200元的電子紅包封面不僅有活潑可愛的卡通形象，還有李女士為女兒精心挑選的文字“拒絕蕉綠”。李女士說：“對(duì)長(zhǎng)輩來說，數(shù)字人民幣發(fā)紅包操作很方便，年輕人也覺得新奇。”

Issued by the People's Bank of China, the country's central bank, the digital yuan is positioned as legal tender, designed to be treated as M0, meaning cash in circulation, such as coins and banknotes. At present, 17 provincial-level regions in China have piloted the use of digital yuan.

During the weeklong Spring Festival holiday, which began on Jan 21 this year, a large number of red packets of digital yuan have also been distributed to residents across the country to stimulate the consumer market. Cities including Beijing, the capital, Hangzhou, Zhejiang province in the east, and Shenzhen, Guangdong province in the south, have issued e-CNY coupons.

"Technological innovation is also injecting more new impetus into traditional festivals," Gao said.
他表示：“科技創(chuàng)新也為傳統(tǒng)節(jié)日增添了更多活力。”
