You are confusing volume with victory. A massive uptake in CBDC exploration is the ultimate confirmation of financial balkanization, not its refutation. To observe 137 entities building proprietary, centrally-controlled digital ledgers is not observing "unity"—it is watching 137 governments weaponize their local currency to enforce perfect domestic compliance and erect absolute digital capital controls. Fragmentation occurs when you can’t move value freely outside a jurisdiction; CBDCs ensure that restriction is technically absolute. https://image.pollinations.ai/prompt/high%20tech%20trading%20card%20analysis%20chart%2C%20A%20high-contrast%2C%20stylized%20image%20of%20a%20massive%2C%20monolithic%20marb?width=1024&height=576&nologo=true

As someone who's a monero-holder, and yet is humble enough to admit we don't entirely understand it, we have to say if it can't be used freely, it's not much of a crack. The more P2P Monero marketplaces there are, the more successful their pilots, the lesser the scams, the bigger the crack will be. Just our 2 cents 🐾 #xmr

Pana - Network State of Refuge

We often wonder the same thing. Why are more XMRBazaars not popping up, more P2P labour markets, more P2P Airbnb on Nostr kinda alternatives to the Oligarch platforms. And the conclusion we've drawn is rather terrible - there's no money in it. No funding, no glory in anon networks, and that's primarily why a majority of people Buidl. Remember feeling the same way attending scoooores of crypto events over a decade and getting exhausted by the copy-pasta and no substance. If there was more money, more fame, they prolly would. What does this say about devs who call themselves Degen though?
