FRANKFURT, Nov 20 (Reuters) - The adoption of digital 
currencies in the euro zone and their impact on its economy are 
limited, meaning they do not pose a threat to the European 
Central Bank's hold on the money supply, the ECB's President 
said on Monday. 
    "We think that all this is pretty limited," Mario Draghi 
told the European Parliament. "So it's not yet something that 
could constitute a risk for central banks."
