Episode notes
Risks of the Genius Act
- The Genius Act may normalize identity-linked digital money and federal monitoring of transactions.
- There's a crucial need to guarantee private money remains untracked and immune to government control.
Defend Financial Freedom
- Demand a clear ban on central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) in legislation.
- Ensure self-custody rights so individuals control their own digital assets without government interference.
Importance of Self-Custody
- Self-custody allows sending crypto without intermediaries, preserving true ownership.
- Without strong custody rights, governments could fully control and restrict your spending.
