PANews December 29 news, according to News.bitcoin, Brazilian congresswoman Julia Zanatta expressed concerns about the impact of implementing digital currency (drex) on citizens' lives. Julia Zanatta emphasized that as the country advances the implementation of drex (national central bank digital currency), physical currency may come to an end. In a recent interview, Julia Zanatta explained that the use of drex should be voluntary and not mandatory, as it could become a tool for exerting control over Brazilians. She has planned to establish multiple backup measures to prevent this from happening, helping Brazilians maintain their current economic freedom.
Julia Zanatta recently proposed a bill to counter the already introduced ban on the use of cash in Brazil, proposing to rely solely on electronic transactions and drex. The bill was proposed in 2020 and will gradually stop printing money starting in 2025.
