Anti-CBDC Bill: House Passes CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act

As an analyst with a background in financial privacy and technology, I view the passage of the CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act as a crucial step towards preserving individual financial freedom and privacy.

The US House of Representatives has approved the CBDC Privacy and Protection Act, a major step forward in regulatory legislation regarding Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs).

Amid growing concerns from the general public and consumers over privacy issues and the potential encroachment of the government in the financial sector, particularly with regards to the proposed Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), this decision has been made.
