The very essence of our freedom lies in our right to transact. It is through transactions that we connect and participate in the modern economy. However, the emergence of Central Bank Digital Currencies (#CBDCs) represents a direct assault on this vital freedom and our right to privacy. Despite their marketing claims of convenience, privacy, and similarity to cash, we would be placing our trust in these entities not to exploit their newfound powers. Unfortunately, history has repeatedly demonstrated that centralized entities eventually succumb to the temptation of abusing monetary and information systems. Therefore, we must firmly reject them.
In contrast, #Bitcoin stands as a powerful tool that empowers our freedom to transact. It operates on the principles of permissionlessness, decentralization, and pseudonymity, providing us with the means to reclaim control over our transactions and preserve our fundamental liberties.
