🗓️ Published: 2025-06-21T13:00:55+03:00

📄 Summary: In a compelling op-ed for Le Monde, economist and former Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis critiques the US administration's rejection of a public digital currency. He argues that by avoiding a public digital dollar, the government is effectively handing over the supremacy of the American currency to Big Tech companies. Varoufakis cautions that this move could lead to a privatization of money, undermining democratic control over national currency.
