🇧🇷 Brazilian Congresswoman Julia Zanatta warns of the potential end of physical money as the country moves towards implementing drex, the national CBDC.
She opposes a bill that would phase out cash by 2025, advocating for voluntary use of drex to protect economic freedom. Zanatta highlights risks like social control, lack of privacy, and financial mistakes for those unfamiliar with technology.
Zanatta also calls for public awareness and a general ballot to decide drex's future, emphasizing that such significant changes should involve citizen input. The drex pilot is currently facing delays over privacy concerns. 💰
