Scorched earth crypto legislation through enforcement is likely the worse US regulatory policy error ever made. As cash becomes CBDC, we'll make any value transferable as a currency, to be denominated in fiat of user's choice, meaning fiat no longer needed
Fiat's primary draw is two-fold: 1) It cures the liquidity, fungibility and portable ailments that plagued direct physical barter, and 2) Countries only allow their national fiat to be used to pay their mandatory taxes.
#P2PEconomy addresses 1), leaving only 2 as a use for cash
Those skilled in arts of wealth maintenance, investment mgmt realize that fiat is the most expensive asset to hold. It's: 1) Taxed the highest 2) debased the most (inflation) 3) has the lowest returns
Why hold fiat cash when you can spend assets/commodities directly via VeDeFi?
Once populace gets wind of the ability to use almost any asset that can be tokenized or expressed as a data feed as a form of cash, the desire and need to hold and/or use fiat cash will shrink at an unprecedented pace.
Theoretically, cash on hand should never exceed tax liability
Why hold $USD $EUR $GBP or $JPY - all with a sub-99bp yield, taxed at the highest rates available in their respective countries, all debased at the fastest clip in each sovereign's history, when you can hold/spend tokenized risk assets that increase in price as fiat's debased???
Why should any foreign (to US) actors seek $USD (in traditional form, CBDC or otherwise) for transactions & Fx stability reserves for its global #ReserveCurrency status when they can now just as easily circumvent both sanctions & USD by trading #oil for #gold via the #P2PEconomy
Amazingly, the man that invented the #P2PEconomy and patented it was banned from the industry in the US & was forced to take his patent, IP, intellectual capital, team & the ingenuity used to create all of this offshore to benefit said foreign actors. Sound like good policy?
The #IntellectualCapital required to proof against #RunOnTheBank that'll likely be $USD once world turns to #CBDC compatible #P2P direct transactions, led by #China CBDC & #DLT efforts WAS rampant in the entrepreneurial space of #crypto in the US, now nearly ALL headed offshore
