FedNow is **not** a CBDC, it's a distraction from the **actual** CBDC.
A CBDC = everyone's account is at the federal reserve.
The mainstream and the plebs who demanded to be locked down during covid are already talking about how the big banks get preferential interest rates, which is true.
Instead of free market money and free market interest rates, their solution will be to make things "fair" by giving everyone an account at the Fed.
