Golden Finance reports that Brazilian Congressman Julia Zanatta expresses concern about the impact of implementing digital currency (drex) on citizens' lives. Julia Zanatta emphasizes that as the country advances the implementation of drex (the Central Bank's digital currency), physical currency may come to an end. In a recent interview, Julia Zanatta explained that the use of drex should be voluntary rather than mandatory, as it could become a tool for exerting control over Brazilians. She has already 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 combat the already introduced legislation that prohibits the use of cash in Brazil, which proposes relying solely on electronic transactions and drex. This bill was proposed in 2020 and will gradually cease the printing of money starting in 2025.
