"
The 1000 crypto projects (currencies, tokens, assets, periphery, etc),
of which few are actually decentralized distributed privacy scaling
and generally of any note, promise, or future... they all still have one
common and grave mortal enemy they must band together to defeat...
Central Government Bank and Corporate Fiat Control Shitcoins.
This isn't Facebook's Libra for Lols, this is Government and Banks,
the very thing OG cryptocurrency philosophy is rightly against...
it's told right there in the Genesis Block. If CBDC's are allowed to
weasel their way into this space, this last new frontier, to wrap their
digital tentacles around you, and win... you will lose, forever.
This latest US Government CBDC rumbling... for "individuals and
business to use for payments", to "protect the dollar as the world's
reserve currency"... is a trick upon the world and must be fought.
The new world is about distributed, privacy, scaling, mineable, fungible,
permissionless, uncensorable, unstoppable, etc, and much more...
freedom... for all. Make it so.

Digital Dollar Project
Leading the discussion on a U.S. Central Bank Digital Currency
2020-01-08

The Digital Dollar Project is a partnership between Accenture (NYSE:
ACN) and the Digital Dollar Foundation to advance exploration of a
United States Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC). The purpose of the
Project is to encourage research and public discussion on the
potential advantages of a digital dollar, convene private sector
thought leaders and actors, and propose possible models to support the
public sector. The Project will develop a framework for potential,
practical steps that can be taken to establish a dollar CBDC.

Digital Dollar Project

Washington, D.C., Jan. 16, 2020 – “The digital 21st century is
underserved by an analog reserve currency,” said Chris Giancarlo. “A
digital dollar would help future-proof the greenback and allow
individuals and global enterprises to make payments in dollars
irrespective of space and time. We are launching the Digital Dollar
Project to catalyze a digital, tokenized U.S. currency that would
coexist with other Federal Reserve liabilities and serve as a
settlement medium to meet the demands of the new digital world and a
cheaper, faster and more inclusive global financial system.”

The purpose of the Project is to encourage research and public
discussion on the potential advantages of a digital dollar, convene
private sector thought leaders and actors, and propose possible models
to support the public sector. The Project will develop a framework for
potential, practical steps that can be taken to establish a dollar
CBDC.

Press Release

Digital Dollar Project Issue Briefing

The time has come to explore options for a digital dollar, and the
principal members of the Digital Dollar Foundation (The Foundation)
have sounded the call for this needed dollar innovation. Together with
Accenture, a global leader in CBDC advancement, the Foundation has
formed the “Digital Dollar Project” (the Project) to study potential
avenues to utilize U.S. digital dollar tokenization and its
implications on the U.S. and global economic and financial systems.
The Project will seek to facilitate a public debate about a U.S.
dollar CBDC adoption. To ensure the dollar can serve the broadest
possible range of uses in a increasingly digital global economy and
thereby maintain its privileged position and support orderly
adjustment in international monetary relations, consideration needs to
be given to plans to adopt a digital dollar issued by the Federal
Reserve System (Fed).

The (R)Evolution of Money I Blockchain Empowered Cryptocurrencies

Accenture

The (R)Evolution of Money addresses how central banks can help shape
the role that cryptocurrencies will play in the economy. A central
bank-issued cryptocurrency can support the bank’s mandate of
maintaining economic stability, protecting the consumer and
controlling money supply. A central bank can issue fiat currency on
the blockchain in the same way it issues fiat currency as physical
cash.
