With respect to this, the Cato Institute said it has critically observed more than 2,000 responses to the U.S. Federal Reserve\u2019s invitation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the firm, it has been able to deduce that two-thirds of the public comments are in objection to the idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Future of CBDC&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As disclosed via a blog post on Wednesday, the total comments were about 2052, with over 66 percent of the comments reflecting a negative view of CBDC. It further revealed that most of the opposing comments were backed up with concerns over financial privacy, financial oppression, and the risk of disintermediating the nation&#8217;s financial system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although, the majority of the comments reflect a negative view of the idea of a digital dollar in the country. The research also disclosed that a number of comments have alternately expressed absolute approval of a digital dollar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the research, business-inclined comments have expressed a positive view of the idea of a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC). These supportive interests for a digital dollar came mostly from businesses working in finance, technology, and regulatory compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Cato policy analyst, Nicholas Anthony, who compiled the statistics commented on this saying;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe fact that two-thirds of the over 2,000 commenters are pushing back against the idea of a CBDC shows not only that this is not the niche issue it once was a few years ago, but also that Americans recognize the very real risk a CBDC could pose to their financial freedom.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, the analysis disclosed that most of the positive comments were birthed from the belief that the initiation of a CBDC could serve as a national-security benefit in the race against foreign competitors. Further noting that they can as well reduce the environmental costs from the production of paper currency and improve trust in the monetary system by making it more transparent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, it appears that the majority still stand on a NO to the idea of a digital dollar as some businesses have disclosed that they were not in agreement with the plan. These disagreements came from businesses like banks and credit unions as they questioned the Fed\u2019s motivations in their letters.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These banks and credit unions backed their opinions pointing out that there are no unique benefits evident that justify the launch of a CBDC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;While there are no doubt opportunities for improvement, we believe most, if not all, [of these opportunities] can be addressed by innovations in the current financial services framework and through continued public\u2010private partnerships, without the introduction of a novel digital currency that could destabilize the system,&#8221; the Credit Union National Association (CUNA) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cato.org\/blog\/update-two-thirds-commenters-concerned-about-cbdc\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">explained<\/a> in their response.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Selon la recherche, les commentaires \u00e0 tendance commerciale ont exprim\u00e9 une vision positive de l&#039;id\u00e9e d&#039;une monnaie num\u00e9rique de la banque centrale (CBDC).\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":15929,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_editorskit_title_hidden":false,"_editorskit_reading_time":0,"_editorskit_is_block_options_detached":false,"_editorskit_block_options_position":"{}","_uag_custom_page_level_css":"","footnotes":"","_members_access_role":[],"_members_access_error":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[259],"class_list":["post-15863","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","tag-cbdc"],"acf":[],"uagb_featured_image_src":{"full":["https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/4465290.jpg",1280,682,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/4465290-500x330.jpg",500,330,true],"medium":["https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/4465290-300x160.jpg",300,160,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/4465290-768x409.jpg",640,341,true],"large":["https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/4465290-1024x546.jpg",640,341,true],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/4465290.jpg",1280,682,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/4465290.jpg",1280,682,false],"trp-custom-language-flag":["https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/4465290-18x10.jpg",18,10,true]},"uagb_author_info":{"display_name":"Rebecca Davidson","author_link":"https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/fr\/author\/rebeccad\/"},"uagb_comment_info":0,"uagb_excerpt":"According to the research, business-inclined comments have expressed a positive view of the idea of a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC).\u00a0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15863","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/18"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15863"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15863\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15929"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15863"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15863"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcoinwisdom.com\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15863"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
