1/
This will make me unpopular...
"When will the United States issue the Fedcoin?"
2/ My Prediction:
Definitely in 5 to 10 years.
--tops!
3/ When the f̶o̶o̶l̶s̶ nice people in Washington DC realize that cryptocurrency is:
⬤ Perfectly and permanently traceable and…
⬤ NOT anonymous
They will implement a fedcoin or some other kind of digital money quicker than you can say “TAX EVASION”!
4/ But, but…Bitcoin is anonymous!
Ähm…kinda, let me explain:
What do you think happens when the government or your company pays you in Bitcoin or digital currency?
5/ Well, they connect your name to your bitcoin address **BOOM!*** not anonymous anymore!
6/ And there you are: every single transaction you ever made, down to the millionth of a dollar, perfectly and permanently traceable!
7/ See the FBI’s very own Bitcoin address here, it’s the one they used after “confiscating” Dread Pirate Robert’s Bitcoin:
blockchain.com/btc/address/1F…
8/ Just watch how fast they implement a fedcoin.
⬤ FAZIT: Is this actually the disadvantage to Bitcoin/Blockchains?
9/ I am very confident in this prediction.
Why do you think Cuba just decided to accept Bitcoin?
⬤ El Salvador just did too!
By the time it comes though, the propaganda will have been in full swing and most Americans will want it :-(
10/ All of the skeptics will be labeled “conspiracy theorists,” “right wingers” “nazis” etc. etc.
⬤Right now we are in phase 1: Label the enemy (cash).

11/ As a matter of fact, this transition is already happening in Sweden, and… as predicted; the government is framing cash as “dirty money”!
12/ Phase 2: Frame your solution as something good and exterminate the enemy.
-
This will not be hard since most people don’t use cash much now anyway.

13/ The business case for a Fedcoin is simply too strong to ignore.
Issuing blockchain based money and closing all tax loopholes and eliminating tax evasion will bring in Billions of dollars per year — this drug is simply too much for the politicians to resist.
14/14 A Fedcoin will be issued in 5–10 years: I’m willing to bet “money” on it.
Remember I make these predictions in the hope of proving myself wrong.
