@pepsi_man @CliffSecord CBDCs are almost entirely a manufactured spook.

People are terrified about the government having control that they already have, but just in different places.

If they want to de-bank you, that's happening. If they want to seize your money, that's happening. If they want to know about you withdrawing lots of cash from a bank, they know that. If you get caught with a few thou in cash, that's gone.
