@PhenomX6 @dave This is the perfect timing to buy more Monero.
Most people make the mistake to buy during the bull market, and sell during the bear market.
If your purpose is to make more fiat, you'll need to do the opposite of that.
If your purpose is to prepare for the future of finance, best is still to buy while cheap, and otherwise mine so you're ready to use once everyone stops accepting fiat, and starts accepting crypto instead.
Forget about CBDCs, they're already doomed to become a failure.
Governments will probably push it as hard as they can, and maybe people will actually use it at the beginning, but as soon as they realize the fundamental design problems with CBDCs (like how they're basically government vouchers, not money), nobody will give a fuck about CBDCs.
