CBDCs are financial surveillance with better branding. They are being be sold as innovation, convenient and inclusive. Once money becomes programmable, freedom becomes conditional. - Who decides what you can buy? - Who decides where you can spend? - Who decides when your access ends? The Czech Republic knows what centralised power looks like and @BTC Prague has always felt like the right place to talk about bitcoin, cypherpunks and financial freedom. I’ll be moderating a panel on how to defend against CBDCs and surveillance with @Efrat Fenigson , Lea Thompson, Viliam Klamarčík and Tony Yazbeck. Read the article here: See you in Prague.

All the right people you named, and I look forward to it. Humble contribtion: just because CBDCs are having kind of a bad rep for the last 3 years or so, now their plan appears to make stable coins function like quasi-CBDC and hope they can get away with it. I, on my behalf, will continue pointing out to this potential risk. All the best to all of you out there. 👍
Totally agree. Stablecoins are a CBDC via the back door. This will be part of the discussion. 🫡

Nothing, and I mean nothing beats BTC. There isn’t a asset in the history of mankind that is not only 100% finite, but so many things that it would literally fill up this reply, so I won’t go on, as everyone in here knows what it does anyway.
