A single public blockchain infrastructure is the only way a CBDC will work because of trust

Government say they need their CBDC to be transparent. That is to say, so that they can trace and follow crime on their new cash system. I don't have a problem with that so long as every citizen's privacy is maintained.

But this is not the total extent of what transparency needs to be, if, government wants to make a CBDC work.

For a CBDC to work fully, for both that nation and all its citizens, transparency needs to be in totality. What exactly do I mean by this?

Government, having been misled by fintech for more than 5 years now, and having failed to deliver on certain promises in 2019 using crippled crypto protocols, no longer believe a CBDC can be done on chain. But do they know it all? For there is a blockchain (DL) protocol that has always been able to deliver. And fintech have deliberately hidden it from view.

But its not about "my protocol is better than your protocol". It is about private blockchains which are what fintech has filed to deliver on for so long, which can never deliver the total transparency required to make a CBDC work for everyone. Because a private CBDC network means government cannot be held to account, only citizens and by government! Its a one way deal which will not garner the trust required to make a CBDC adoptable by the people.

Don't get me wrong, I am not anti government nor anti bank. I am just pointing this out because I want a CBDC to work. So what do I propose?

Take a deep breath please everyone, for is going to be hard to hear - for a CBDC to work it must provide total transparency and to do that it must be run on a public blockchain in the clear for all.

There cannot be more than one blockchain infrastructure. But a CBDC could already run tokenised as a layer on top of the current Bitcoin network and retain total transparency.

Worried about a single public blockchain? Why! The Internet is an identical Old Guard here.

A single public blockchain infrastructure is the only way a CBDC will work because of trust. It's the only way government will be able to convince the people it is trustworthy. This is not simply a technical challenge already solved anyway.

It is a trust opportunity.

PETITION: Government to Indicate Countries of the UK Are Open to Accede to the US

A Dialogue on the UK's Accession to the United States Executive Summary This initiative seeks to foster a formal dialogue regarding the potential accession of the countries of the United Kingdom , to the United States , as individual states. Simply put, this petition is asking the government to start a conversation about the benefits of leaving the UK and joining the United States. The objective is to evaluate the benefits to citizens and stakeholders, encouraging a constructive discourse on the political, economic, and social implications of such a union. If Wales , Northern Ireland , Scotland , or England were to leave the United Kingdom, it would end their system of constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy . Instead, if they joined the United States as separate states, they would govern themselves under the U.S. federal system while receiving its protection. This proposal recognises that immediate change is unlikely but urges a serious conversation to addres...

The 450 Volt Truth: From Orwell to Obedience

A Complete Thread on Dystopia, Milgram, and Breaking the Agentic State - Why People Act Irrationally and Often Violently When a Tribal Social Structure and Its Hierarchy Are Brought Under Serious Scrutiny This is a tricky topic. Please read the Obedience Glossary of Terms before proceeding Executive Summary This piece was written from a long conversation with Grok. I had to interrogate the AI quite a bit. And was astonished at how it produced such intelligence. I've included the most pertinent parts. Do not be fooled into thinking this is just another Orwell analysis. That is just setting the scene well. For what comes later on the agentic state and how power uses it to control the masses. It may not have all the answers. It might wrong. A lot of it is very hard to believe is happening. But it still seems to fit the bizarre world of system wide dissonance we all live and partake in today, better than all the alternatives. So deserves your continued attention. By all means make yo...

Facing Draco, Mining Dorado - The 2026 Great Recession

This is a proposal to show how the 18.6 year real estate cycle is a hang over from times where the mechanics of the lunar month were used by high priests of the time to forecast ancient agricultural cycles - what we would today call a business cycle always culminating in a financial crisis and great recession. The 18.6 year astronomical period is governed by the intersection of lunar and solar eclipses. It is known scientifically as the Saros Cycle. Where all 3 harmonics of the orbit of the moon coincide once every 18.6 years. The ancient scholars knew this and had been measuring it for aeons. And the politicians of the time used it to name the day when the economy had to be deliberately reset by fiat. This reset was necessary because they noticed around 19 years is as long as an economy can survive when being unjustly abused by its people. Any longer making it too late to recover on its own. And without the reset much worse effects emerge. They knew this. They did not know why. They j...
