CBDCs will take over in 5-10 years.
Governments will slowly take cash out of circulation year after year.
Then individuals will be under complete control.
The majority will comply. Those who don't, will be oppressed.
Then most of those will cave in. Those who still don't, will be crushed.
I'm no doomsayer, in fact I'm optimistic most of the time, but this is such an obvious outcome given the world's economic context and how every government has been rushing at full speed towards this since the covid pandemic.
The only tool we the people have against this incoming tyranny is cryptocurrency.
And frankly, we won't make it.
Adoption barely increased this decade.
There is almost no real world usage and no new initiatives to increase it.
The ones that use or hold it, are too focused watching the price chart.
Meanwhile on the streets most people never heard about #bitcoin, those who did will ask you "is it still a thing?"
We need for #crypto, something like Facebook was last decade, something that everyone, even your grandma, will use it. We need it quick.
