We’ve spent years debating CBDCs.
I think we’ve been debating the wrong object.
If what people actually fear is universal identity resolution and centralized visibility, you don’t need a central bank liability. You need a directory.
That’s the argument I make after digging into Colombia’s Bre-B, Brazil’s Pix, and the digital euro debate.
One of the more surprising conclusions: every statement I quote from the institutions involved is technically true.
