Yes I get your idea, but the Deep State could easily use CBDCs programmed in their favour and it would be anonymous. They run the system

Current dollars are essentially anonymous for the feds. Go and try to track government spending through an economy. There are many line items which are intentionally hidden. It’s basically impossible.

Bitcoin is 100 times more transparent on the base layer than our current monetary system (assuming you’re not the federal reserve or the government itself)

It’s complicated

Spies don’t openly run systems, they infiltrate all systems and operate from within

The CIA isn’t even technically supposed to operate domestically (LOL if you believe that)

A CBDC would leave them more visible to others than they want to be

By way of example: Edward Snowden is CIA. He exposed the NSA probably because there was an interagency squabble where the NSA was tracking everything CIA agents were doing and they didn’t like it lol. And also the NSA probably wasn’t sharing with CIA like they wanted. So some good old fashioned HUMINT went in and exposed the most sophisticated SIGINT operation in human history

I have no idea on this, i only know humans fuck it up every time. If we wish to destroy ourselves we will, i doubt it. Bitcoin exists and could also ultimately be ruined, more chance. However I hope there is a humanity level shift in consciousness where next level connections are forged. Bitcoin is amazing for this

Bitcoin is pretty unfuckable. Because it’s ultimately just an idea, and even if you fuck it a bit with a bad implementation or a cyber attack or a really bad change, it’s always possible to unfuck it.

Bitcoin is a whole new form of life, in an even more profound way than the internet. It will outlive us.

People using it for JPegs is literally so irrelevant that it makes my head hurt when people spend energy worrying about it.
