When you get paid, its direct deposited into your account, then you pay your bills online, after that you use your debit card to buy Mcdonalds.... Were already on the digital dollar. You can just get paper ones to supplement.

It will destroy the currency. Just look how easily crypto was mismanaged. Banks/governments love the idea of creating monies out of thin air! It means they can spend without limits. Get ready for currency destruction.

Affect. When you misspell that again, the controller of the CBDC can turn you off

It will speedrun the collapse of the USD. I'm thinking about investing in DVD players and movies to flip in the aftermath.

False

A new block of transactions is mined roughly every minute on the Dogecoin network. The block reward is 10,000 DOGE, or about $600 as of September 7, 2022. Unlike Bitcoin, which has a hard cap of 21 million and releases fewer coins over time, there is no Dogecoin supply cap.

It will not be money anymore, because it will completely lose the property of fungibility. Every single dollar will be differentiable to another dollar and carry attributes like your name and the name of every previous user and any transaction made with it. It will be able to be seized or frozen at any time. You will only be able to make purchases that you have specifically received permission for. This will likely be done with pre-approval lists based on various categories like your social credit score and your assigned caste.

It will be great for us who report everything and pay taxes. I hate how many get away with paying cash with undeclared funds!!! I hardly ever see any dollar notes anyway. All I see is a + in my account and then a bunch of - from my wife and that’s it back to 0 😂

Hopefully I automatically save money and another account has a +. I might go to the ATM once a month to pay my barber 💈

I prefer to barter for things with "favors"...but the powers that be have already made that illegal unless they get a cut

I guess they're going to go all the way by controlling and tracing every little thing that I buy

It won't change purchasing power. Surveillance & control won't change at the fundamental level, but it will become faster & easier to trace funds or lock/seize them.

The real big implication is that it could end fractional reserve banking. No longer a need to keep physical currency on hand to honor withdraws.

It will be the end of the US dollar being a reserve. There are two reasons it is the reserve. The US is the strongest and largest economy creating a fairly stable currency. Second is our paper money is private and not traceable. A digital dollar will eliminate the privacy and open up a dystopian world where the government can turn off your “cash”. That in and of itself will make many places around the world not want to use it as a reserve.

There is a titanic amount of speculation and fear mongering flying around about the applications of a CBDC (Digital Dollar) and how this will instantly plunge us into a real life version of THX-1138. The government is demonstrably incompetant and the idea they could implement anything as complicated as what people are claiming without fucking everything up with half-assery is dilusional.

The distopian fetish that everyone is fapping over about CBDCs is unlikely and impractical. Also even if they tried anything even slightly close to these fantasy horror stories, a large portion of the populus would just revert to bartering or a substitute currency. Absolute authoritarianism is the stuff of fiction and mostly is used to peddle sub-par wares and other scams. Be more vigilant.

Yes, because the government allows them to. We should return to a stable form of currency for many reasons. It limits spending overall. The government can't perform endless wars with a stable currency. It has literally led to millions dead.
