People are celebrating over on Twatter about the "No CBDC" line item within the Executive Order today. I think it's a farce.

Fully believe they'll simply outsource it to stablecoin issuers and in exchange for being able to operate in US they'll have to agree to a surveillance sharing agreement. Then they also get US Treasury buyers out of the deal.

Two birds. All the data. One stone.

Would be glad to be wrong.

i think i had this thought a little while ago that the way the fascists would bring in USD CDBC was just to coopt tether and usdc

it's the fascism way, and USA federal government is 100% fascist... FDA, USDA... medicare, every last bit of what the fed does is about sweet deals for corporate partners

Surveillance sharing agreement? 🤣😂🤣😂😆🤣😂 Every heard of a public blockchain? No agreement needed.

Same old playbook

Agreed. Bitcoin wins.
