Ripple to demonstrate tokenization in HKMA e-HKD pilot program using new CBDC platform
by Gunnar Larson 28 May '23

I wonder if this is what DeSantis is talking about on CBDC? When it comes to Micron in New York and a BitLicensee partnering with a bank in Taiwan? ---- Ripple will partner with Taiwan’s Fubon Bank and others to demonstrate equity release with tokenized assets using a retail version of the e-HKD CBDC. https://cointelegraph.com/news/ripple-new-cbdc-platform-hkma-e-hkd-pilot-pr…

Ron Desantis promises to protect Bitcoin and oppose a CBDC as president

https://cryptoslate.com/ron-desantis-promises-to-protect-bitcoin-and-oppose… Florida governor Ron Desantis came out in support of Bitcoin and in opposition to central bank digital currencies in his official announcement of his presidential candidacy. Desantis formally announced his presidential run on Twitter Spaces with Elon Musk and venture capitalist David Sack on May 24. DeSantis has become a frontrunner in the Republican Party since Donald Trump failed to secure reelection in 2020 and his candidacy has been widely anticipated. DeSantis spoke about his plans “to lead our great American comeback,” which involves tackling the big issues with unfettered immigration, spiraling crime, and restoring economic sanity, including supporting Bitcoin rights and reversing the digital dollar. DeSantis gives a pro-Bitcoin take During the hour-long Spaces, DeSantis spoke mostly about his concerns about what he calls “the left-wing agenda,” which he argues is authoritarian and overreaching. In his Twitter space, DeSantis extended his thinking to crypto. Touching upon what some in the crypto community have dubbed “Operation Choke Point 2.0,” DeSantis said people have a right to hold Bitcoin and transact with it, arguing that the government is waging war on crypto because it is outside the scope of its authority. He expressed concern that Bitcoin might not survive another four years of U.S. regulatory hostility. No to central bank digital currencies Ron DeSantis said, “We are not doing a central bank digital currency (CBDC)” if I become U.S. President in 2024. Last month, Florida passed legislation to prevent a CBDC from being recognized as money in the state. DeSantis said Florida was the first to make a legislative stand. Senate Bill 7054 aims to protect Floridians’ rights by prohibiting a CBDC from being treated as money under the Florida Uniform Commercial Code. The event suffered technical difficulties due to systems being unable to cope with 600,000 listeners tuning in simultaneously. It was noted that 2.4 million had heard the show – ranking it among the most popular Twitter Spaces this year.

Cryptocurrency: WHO KILLED BITCOIN?!?! Another Fork Is Coming!
by professor rat 27 May '23

The West can act now and then in a concerted intelligent fashion - two examples - the Ozone Layer emergency and the International Crime of aggressive invasion into Ukraine. This got me thinking that IF ( huge hypothetical ) the Austro-Libertarian narratives somehow gloms onto Big Dog ( after at least one failed attempt - by REASON ) and if the leap to hyperspace is made ( not so unlikely ) the Western Powers might enlist a global coalition of the willing to ' Nationalize " Btc and emasculate it as a sort of global CBDC. Its a remote possibility - far more likely is they die trying - possibly by CYPHERPUNK 2027. But this is the only scenario whereby Big God is forked in any deeply meaningful way going forward. Its like an asymptotic force now- the power needed to break it off increases as its applied! Break-a-leg Earthly Powers. Btc is cryptoanarchist enough to replace youse. We'll worry about your obit once you're dead. TL/DR we kill the powers-that-be or we do nothing

I knew I was sticking my neck out with CYPHERPUNK 2027 That's what cypherpunk revolutionaries do. And that's the stark contrast between me and preening, posing, posturing pretenders. ( Like Mange, Semich, Gramps, etc - you know the infamous and unholy larger CIRCLE of EUNUCHS ) " When cypherpunks are called terrorists we will be doing our job " Old cryptoanarchist proverb
