Trump's 3 Crypto Bills Change EVERYTHING: Full Details GENIUS Act, CBDC Act, and CLARITY Act
For those who are still confused by cryptocurrency what this is can be compared to buying tokens at an amusement park. You can't use money when you ride on the rides you have to use their tokens which you bought from them when you entered the park. In the same way imagine you can't use money to buy stuff at Amazon.com, instead you have to use their tokens.
You can see why Amazon.com would like this, when you buy their tokens they can only be used at Amazon.com, likewise with Walmart and many other places. It will become very confusing and impossible to compare prices, also since they control their tokens they can withdraw fees and have them expire as they please. It is like gift cards that never get redeemed, the company simply keeps that money.
You can also see why the US government loves them, any company establishing their own crypto currency will become a new market to buy US dollars. So instead of the US dollar going bust they can hide that fact. In other words the crypto currency can sell for a standard amount of US dollars which does not change, hence "no inflation" while the fees on your cryptocurrency can allow them to go after your principle.
In short, the Genius Act is thieves getting real smart, instead of breaking in and robbing your bank, they are convincing you to give them the money that is in your bank.
Consider these new self driving cars from Tesla that you can buy which will also act as a Uber making you money. I expect many people will buy cars they can't afford expecting to be able to pay the car payment by having the car act as a Uber. However, when millions get layed off due to AI and robots who will be hiring a Uber? The beauty is that when you miss a car payment they don't have to hire someone to get your car, they simply tell the car to return to the dealer and you will discover that car you "bought" is no longer yours.
Same thing with the Smart home. You miss a payment and you will come home to discover you have been locked out of the house.
This is what the whole mortgage meltdown was, you pay for something for five years, then they pull the rug out from under you, double the mortgage payment, you default, they get the house back and can sell it a second time.
Crypto currency takes the money you have and puts it into the hands of a "benevolent" all powerful government that can at any moment cut off your access to it.
