CBCD might stand for Control By Currency Destruction. It is a total invasion of privacy and property rights. It may not be the mark of the beast... but it's close.

When they inflict this curse on us it will be followed closely by a Social Credit Score and total control of your money and possibly your life. They want to micro manage everything and everybody. We have seen this before in China, and it is chilling.

Time to set up barter and trade, perhaps reverting to real silver and gold coins. Create work arounds to disrupt their unbridled lust for control.

Agreed. And if the use of cash is declining or going to be scrapped altogether, it's a great time to start investing in gold and silver.

Currency with real value instead of ink and paper.

Great post. I been seeing this coming for years. The antichrist is getting things in position for his control. having one digital currency means total control of the money. People better hear what the real prophets are saying from the mouth of God and follow His directions. Because God is allowing different things to take place to fulfill His divine purpose.

Thanks Bobby Clair: C]ensorship requires censors, and once censors are given the ability to pick and choose what the public will hear, this slippery slope moves us away from freedom and toward repression.

I agree the "Economy" is the Trigger AND the Implosion. While most people are well aware of rising prices for basic commodities, the Bankster Manipulations that have already occurred and that Are Planned have not been focused upon.

Just remembered how during covid they were discouraging the use of "dirty money" to get you to use your card. Trying to sell us on the convenience, ease, etc., to hide how once it is done, EVERYTHING you buy or attempt to buy will be monitored! If you commit some violation, you will be cut off from your funds!

way back when, free Obama phones, supposedly so the poor could have phone to answer when they received a job offer. this I thought was bogus, no requirement to apply for a job, just get a free phone. My thought was monitoring of movements, conversations and activities, especially as there was no requirement to get the free phone, like actually apply for a job. Gets people used to mobile phones. Now you need to have a mobile phone to do many online transactions,well in Europe. Now there are crypto VISA cards that you can get and fund them with your cryptos, but you must have a mobile phone to do this, no exceptions.

Ripple, which is the father so to speak of XRP, has been in talks with many Central banks to develop CBDCs that will run on the XRPLedger, XRP is native to the ledger, but any token can be used on the ledger and that is the point of the Central Banks talking to Ripple. Seems good, but if all of your cash is actually digits, which in reality, unless you have it on your person, or under your direct control, is digits in the bank or other institution. It can quickly evaporate, be frozen, ala the Canadian truckers.

One good internet outage, or a well placed air burst small yield nuclear bomb and no more access to your funds. This is all a very bad idea.

Thank you for sharing these great points. If anything is given for "free" by the government, then I instantly start suspecting foul play or a scheming plot leading to further centralization.

One last point, I have a savings account with a French bank, wanted to open a checking account also, but I had to have a mobile phone and download the bank's app to get the checking account. Since I do not have a mobile and do not want one, I did not get the checking account. I wanted to and did purchase a new car here, transferred the money to pay in cash from my USA account to my French savings account. then wanted to withdraw the money to finalize the purchase of the car, and the bank would not let me unless I showed them an invoice from the car dealership. I thought WTF, it is my money and what business is it of yours the reason I want the cash. I had to show the invoice to them and they issued a bank draft, still was not happy about the way it went down.

It seems there is a strong sideways push for everyone to get a mobile phone, WHY???

Always enjoy your well researched posts, impressed, very impressed. Excellent job. Also glad that you are not beating the same drum that everyone else is, new perspectives.

Thank you for the compliment. Also, "I thought WTF, it is my money and what business is it of yours the reason I want the cash" is entirely relatable to different scenarios.

yes, nothing is free and people that think things are free are past naive. Think that both foul play and a scheming plot are correct for free.

Not only invasion of privacy and insecure data transactions, but also identity theft.

I had that happen and it was a nightmare to untangle. My data was part of the Experian (credit reporting agency) data breach. Aren’t they supposed to safe and secure?

I hear you loud and clear. Every new "idea" points to more government centralization in monitoring people's data (and thus micromanaging their lives.) The sooner people are made aware of the emergence of CBDCs, the sooner they can learn about the likely consequence of its adoption--and hopefully, reject its usage.
