Further banking collapse. FDIC just has to say that they guarantee your money back in the form of CBDC

CBDC's are foodstamps like we had during and after world war 2.

It comes out of a war economy and will be the solution to an earlier created problem.

Maybe it's not a world war but a war on climate change after major catastrophes occur simultaneously, definitly not enhanced by advanced weapon systems

Cyberterrorism. The banking system is imploding in slow motion anyways. Why not add a 9/11-esque attack to cover its collapse, in addition to providing justification for CBDCs?

Obscure with one hand, offer 'solution' with the other.
