Debunking the hype: Why CBDCs are more fiction than reality in the crypto world.
CBDCs? Better said CB-NO-Cs, buddy đ
ââïžđž
Hey there, crypto fans? đ Ready for a trip into the future of money? Spoiler alert: it's not as futuristic as we thought. đ
The great illusion of CBDCs
Everyone is excited about CBDCs, right? But watch out for this: only three countries have managed to get these projects off the ground. The rest? Just a story, my friends. đš
Why? Well, it turns out that these little digital coins from central banks are more complicated than explaining blockchain to your grandma. đ”đ
Government FOMO is real
In 2020, only 35 countries were on the CBDC wave. Now there are 134. Did someone say FOMO? đđš But don't get excited, out of all of those, only three have managed to implement them: Bahamas, Nigeria and Jamaica. The rest are still in "coming soon to your screens" mode. đŹ
Why CBDCs aren't taking off?
1. People don't want them: Only 16% of Americans are in favor. The rest prefer to HODL their dollars for life. đ”đșđž
2. They're a political weapon: Republicans hate them more than taxes. And Democrats... well, they're not exactly jumping for joy either. đđđŽ
3. The world is more divided than a hard fork: In order for things to work globally, we need everyone to get along. Spoiler: not going to happen. đđȘ
4. Too much paperwork: New laws, cybersecurity, monetary policy... More bureaucracy than in a government office on a Monday morning. âđ
Stablecoins: the real champions
Meanwhile, stablecoins are there, doing their job without so much drama. đ
Have you heard of Tether? Of course you have. It has 75% of the stablecoin market and has made more money trading than all of us combined. đ°
Even Visa is in the game, using USDC on Solana. Result? Transactions faster than Usain Bolt in his prime. âĄ
To be or not to be CBDC
At the end of the day, CBDCs are like that cryptocurrency that promises to be "the next Bitcoin." Lots of hype, little payoff. đđ„
Stablecoins, on the other hand, are already here, working and without much fuss. They are like the reliable friend who is always there when you need them. đ€
In summary
CBDCs are the new toy of governments, but they are more buggy than the first version of Ethereum. đ Meanwhile, stablecoins are still the queens of the ball. đđ
And remember, friends: "It's not a loss if you don't sell, and it's not a CBDC if no one uses it." đ
What do you think? Do you think we'll see global CBDCs before Satoshi reveals his identity? Leave your hot takes in the comments. đ„đ
