The Republican Party's 2024 platform has raised concerns about the potential privacy risks of a US central bank digital currency (CBDC). The party warns that without post-quantum technology, a CBDC could be vulnerable to cyberattacks and foreign interference. Despite these concerns, interest in CBDCs is growing among central banks and financial institutions worldwide. However, the party argues that more needs to be done to ensure that CBDCs are quantum-resistant. The National Quantum Initiative Act and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency's "Quantum Readiness" roadmap are steps in the right direction, but there is currently no evidence of post-quantum research specifically addressing CBDC design.
