Please explain this more, the same people that printed over 40% of all dollars in existence over the last 2yrs will somehow “do better” because of a CBDC that gives them more control on our financial freedoms & rights, do I have that right?
There a (too) many that still aren’t really grasping what’s going on right now.

Is part of it that the pool of customers that such “western” solutions are aimed at is ultimately too small. You have the (v) rich who won’t need it, the Middle Class that will but too small & the hustlers who can’t afford it & then too much concentration in NBO?

First Principles of Money and money as a technology, reading the replies here, I think this is a worthy episode to share and understand, then people can discuss the point you make here

Did they just come up with imaginative brainwave to just raise prices on everything outside of any other issues?? If so, why now, what’s special about this period now?

Everyone had so many questions they wanted to ask but didn’t dare to.
If you pass a Ksh. 1,000 note to 1000 people, the last person will still have Ksh. 1000
If you send Ksh. 1,000 digitally, by the time it gets to person number 70, it will be worth only Ksh. 90

Commerce is about trade, the exchange of goods and services, capitalism is about the extraction of value from another’s labor, you don’t need to be a capitalist to engage in commerce

To be fair, explain the scam in fullness please, people claiming that you can earn double digit yield on a daily basis is the scam, the asset

If they are serious about fighting this, and I think they are. They want to see what one of their own has written about it, that’s selling so hard & if there is a way discredit your content.

The core of the systemic problem stems from a liquidity crisis driven by massive depositors, not duration mismatch.

Money doesn’t work like that. You need to earn well over 10% interest to counter inflationary effects in Kenya. Our purchasing power against the Dollar is only going to get worse from here

Mining uses the energy, it’s already been produced, it’s excess, it would go to waste as it does across the whole US grid,
