@richards200 17 hours ago I've already noticed. I've had accounts closed due to "New UK laws" and I've been stopped from buying certain shares and crypto because my account was registered in the UK. I'm beginning to become sick to death of all this control by the state. Telling me what I can and can't spend MY money on. I've also been stopped from making payments for precious metals recently. Now I've just opened a card linked to a trading account that can be used anywhere. A CBDC will be the end of ANY freedom you have left. "You have already bought 2 bottles of wine this month, you have reached your limit - purchase denied" or "sorry, you have exceeded your mileage allowance this month, no fuel or charging for you" Not to mention the end of deals for cash, giving your mate 50 quid for helping you with something, selling something for a bit of cash, all gone! People think you're being overly dramatic when you say these things, I don't care, a CBDC is for one reason only, CONTROL! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q2pskwKdvT8
