Sadly it's going to be easy to bring in and they don't need to convince anyone. Please consider the following: * Note how many people just accepted and complied from 2020-2023 because the govt said so * Fear make the 95% fall in line, the threat or use of state sponsored violence [law enforcement, national guard, army, etc.] makes the other 5% fall in line one way or another * Most people don't have 2yrs worth of savings in the bank, nor do they have 2yrs worth of food rotation - this means they're dependent on others to 'get by' as they can't try to "wait it out" * The economy is collapsing thanks to the early stages of hyper inflation and what's likely intentional mismanagement * Whilst people will stick with the current system until it fails, the moment it fails (intentionally or otherwise), they'll begrudgingly flock to CBDC as it'll appear as the better solution * Govt assistance will only be available as CBDC * Food will only be purchasable in CBDC * Wages will only be payable / receivable in CBDC * Taxes and bills will suddenly only be payable in CBDC * It'll become illegal to buy or sell using anything other than CBDC on the legal threat of jail. Look how many ratted out their neighbours, friends and others from 2020-2023, also look back at how people ratted people out to the Stasi. People will comply out of fear * The govt will say - you have no money, the economy failed but we'll give you whatever the last balance you had in the bank, in CBDC. This will cause many to accept CBDC as they technically won't be out of money, they'll just be trapped in CBDC and the tyrannical control it gives the govt over the people Simply put - the powers that be are creating the perfect conditions to have the masses begging for CBDC - part of that is the intentional destruction of the existing economy / system. Remember, the CBDC has to be attractive - the only way to do that is to destroy the current system. I'm 100% against the WEF, CBDC, 15/20 minute cities and this dystopian tyranny - I see leaving the "west" as the only option. Unfortunately, the chance to save cash is gone. Banks are closing branches, removing ATM's, charging stupid amounts to deposit cash as a business, they're stopping people from withdrawing cash, etc. Most banks in Australia are ending cheques in 2024, and the govt bans cheques in 2025 outright, NZ has all but ended cheques already. Cash will be forced out very soon. Other tangibles (bullion, etc.) and having wealth outside the "west" is the only way to survive the end of cash providing you have a place to live outside the "west" without needing a "western" passport (i.e. ensure visas and permits are tied to a passport from a country outside of CANZUK/CUNA).

And its thanks to people such as yourself you are either against privacy or who just "roll over" that privacy is almost completely gone. People are upset because we like our privacy - what we do, as long as we aren't hurting others isn't anyone's business. What I spend my taxed money on is none of the banks business - they have zero right to police how I use my money. What I eat is what I choose to eat, I won't have anyone (govt or otherwise) dictate what I can and can't eat - they can shove their "be healthy and eat bugs" where the sun doesn't shine. Just because you're fine with having no privacy, doesn't mean others are, nor does it mean that they shouldn't have the right to privacy. None of the AML/KYC bullshit has had any effect on crime - criminals literally don't care and if they can't pay with wads of cash, they'll simply trade and barter products like people used to do hundreds of years ago. The AML/KYC bullshit only hurts the honest person and those of us who aren't criminals. I haven't carried a phone for the majority of the last 6yrs. It stays at home the majority of the time. I still demand physical licences much to the disgust of the govt who make doing so very hard and phone call wait times close to 4hrs. I still refuse to make a MyGov account and will NOT be accepting/using or creating an euID as I'm 100% against digital ID. Putting up without having privacy won't make anyone happier - only restoring privacy will. Why do you think, many are going 100% cash only, reverting to trade/barter and avoiding taxes where possible.

@sebas8225 Sadly they are the most compliant group followed by the youth. 2020-2023 proved just that.

@weird-guy There's also Pirate Chain

Only privacy coins are truly private - this is why the govt demands exchanges delist them. The govts know they can't stop them so they ban them by proxy - i.e. by closing the on-ramping and off-ramping.

@DrRock2009 Oh they've planned to do just that. The UN published a document titled something like the "2028 plan" or "Agenda 2028" - the gist of the plan was to invert the 1st world with the 3rd world. They 100% intend on destroying living standards in the current 1st world and creating the best living standards in the current 3rd world.

@gardnerjoss321 Simply put - the tax havens. Whilst at first glance people think they're part of the "west", the reality is that they aren't. Every country that doesn't tax income, capital gains, wealth, investments, death, inheritance, and, corporate income (optional but preferred) is a place allowed to operate outside the system forced upon every other country by pro-high tax lobby groups such as the OECD. These places will remain because these are the places where the "elites" live and keep their money - this is why these places won't likely get ruined. Examples: * Vanuatu * St. Kitts and Nevis * Antigua & Barbuda * Cayman Islands * British Virgin Islands * Bermuda * Monaco * Bahamas * and a few more...

Simply put - the "elites" and politicians lie. Always doubt what they say until you find proof otherwise. Any CBDC in the "west" will be 100% identifiable - under CBDC privacy is gone, as is freedom. There's a hell of a lot that they haven't made public yet. Ever wonder why the govt apps are many times larger in size than they otherwise need be - its not because they're being lazy and coding in a way that bloats the apps, its because there's a heap of code that's not connected to the user interface yet. The official "digital wallet/licence' apps such as ServiceVIC [State govt app from Victoria, Australia], ServiceNSW [State govt app from New South Wales, Australia], etc. contain a section known as 'Digital Wallet' - currently its where all digital licences and permits exist. When the app [apk] is decompiled, the 'digital wallet' section of the app contains heaps of code that is there either waiting for a server response to activate or for an app update to connect the code to a button in the interface. The code that's lying dormant is the code for a digital payment framework (credit card support and CBDC), border permits (to restrict the movement of people) and for digital ID. The fact this code exists (created in early 2020 - this is when it first appeared in the apk's) and that a lot of money was spent on its creation is proof that there is intent to use it - the only question is... when? I'm sure the EU versions of such apps have similar dormant code waiting to be used. Its like the old trick farmers use to trap boars - they'd feed them in one spot, then over several months they'd start to build a pen around the feed area one side at a time, letting the boars get used to the changes. Eventually the farmer would wait for the boars to enter and start to eat, then suddenly shut the gate trapping them in the pen. That's basically the 'western' world at the moment - sleep-walking into dystopian tyranny, one bit at a time. Once enough bits have been introduced, the remaining bits will suddenly be introduced and it'll be too late. Those wanting out, better get out ASAP, before its too late. As my grandfather used to say: "It's better to leave too early than a day too late. If you leave early and nothing happens, you can always return. If you try to leave too late you won't be able to leave and that's when you perish."
