"Little has been announced on the shape the virtual currency will take, but Riksbank has made it clear that its digital money cannot be categorized as a crypto asset as it “has a state, a trusted actor, as issuer and that the state guarantees the value of the means of payment.”

That's fair, I suppose. Is it essential for crypto to have no state actor for it to be crypto? If all the governments do it, does it portend anything for real crypto?
