CBDC are a form of fiat currency that can be programmed by the government. One could loose access to the access of their funds as easy (and eventually as common) as a ban on social media. All the inefficiencies and surveillance of governments will be a part of the financial activities of every citizen. CBDC are a vital ingredient for turning the world into a Panopticon.
CBDC Tracker

- 4 Projects Launched.
- 22 Pilot Projects.
- 29 at Proof of Concept.
- 103 in Research Phase.
- 7 Canceled Projects.
Click on the map to learn more about specific projects. The information provided can be compared with @coingecko, DefiLlama etc. They may not always be perfectly accurate or upto date. What CBDC Tracker provide is a unified presentation of the data and news.
Most of the media in is spreading disinformation and misinformation on the most important matters and even those who are covering cryptocurrency and on the Libertarian side are vastly unaware of the prevalence and magnitude of CBDC projects around the world. One of the reasons for this is USA lagging behind on their CBDC projects. Most people give too much weight to USA due to its military and economic influence.
Project Whitepaper
The full Whitepaper can be read on the website. I will provide some important parts of it for the convenience of the reader.
Human Rights Foundation on CBDC
The following statistics are taken from their blog published on November of 2023. Read the full blog for better context. They have a fancier CBDC Tracker which can be accessed on this website. __These are great tools to share information and present them to normies and easily visualize the extent of the problem.
Increasing Cryptocurrency Adoption is The Way
There are no other options I can think of to fight against CBDC projects. Giving up technology and isolating oneself is not an option most people can pursue. Expecting another Javier Milei type politician in an election is not very likely and electing one will most likely not be sufficient. I do not expect to be able to fix politics with more politics. We need governments run by principles; not people. Unfortunately most people are not fans of strong principles and create far too problematic systems and mob rule.
The Distriator Project
Distriator will send you instant liquid Hive Backed Dollar rewards for doing this from between 35 and 60% of your purchase value. The more you use the app the higher your cashback rewards will be, additionally, over time we will integrate a reputation system so that you have the opportunity to be rewarded for using the app more frequently.
In the back ground, the app posts a post to the Hive blockchain via your Hive account (which is why, if you use the app regularly to claim cashback, we recommend you use an alternative account to your main account) and takes a beneficiary from the rewards of that post to cover the cost of this instant cashback paid.
Distriator DOES NOT make a profit doing this since any surplus beneficiary funds will be sent back out to the community in the form of prizes in competitions for those who spend Bitcoin Lightning and Hive Dollars the most frequently and use the app to make claims.
More information can be found by following @thedistriator. They are taking a very positive step towards enhancing adoption of cryptocurrency including decentralized stablecoin $HBD. I followed the project thanks to @gadrian. This is a small step towards a better future. We must improve the P2P economy and make everything easy for businesses and regular users.
The list of CBDC projects will grow over the coming years and more projects will move to the launch phase. We may only have few years to improve the adoption of cryptocurrency payments and privacy technologies. Let's do our best to achieve a decentralized future!
