Digital Euro Trojan Horse of Power!
The digital euro: a Trojan horse of power! Why CBDC threatens total surveillance, the step towards a social credit system!
The Digital Euro is being promoted by the European Central Bank (ECB) as a modern and convenient means of payment. But behind the promises lies what many critics believe is the most dangerous currency Europe has ever seen. Instead of freedom and convenience, the Digital Euro threatens to entangle us all in a tight web of surveillance and control. It is the prototype of a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) that gives the government unprecedented power over our money.
The Lie of the Timeline: No Imminent Launch, but the Danger Remains
The most common rumor is that the Digital Euro will be launched as early as October 2025. This is simply false and often serves as fear-mongering to generate clicks.
The fact is: October 2025 merely marks a decisive point in the project’s preparation phase. The ECB will then decide whether to pave the way for an actual issuance. The public launch is not expected until at least 2028 or 2029. The real danger lies not in the speed of the launch, but in the gradual acceptance of the concept itself. With every small step forward in the planning, we are brought one step closer to a cashless, surveilled system.
Coercion, Not Choice: Putting Cash Under Pressure
The ECB claims that the Digital Euro is not meant to replace cash but to supplement it. Yet, anyone familiar with the history of digitalization knows that the gradual displacement of cash is the true goal. If transactions with the Digital Euro become easier and cheaper, while cash payments are made less attractive (e.g., through limits or high fees), cash will eventually disappear. Without cash as an alternative, we lose our last bastion of financial freedom and anonymity.
Total Control: The “Glass Citizen”
Every single transaction with the Digital Euro will be digitally recorded and stored. While the ECB promises not to monitor this data, the system is designed to allow for total surveillance. Every financial decision, every purchase, every donation will be traceable. The data could be used by state authorities for countless purposes in the future—from tax audits to tracking an individual’s carbon footprint. A digital payment system in the hands of the government opens the door to an unprecedented type of social and financial control.
Programmability: Money as a Tool of Coercion
A key feature of CBDCs is their programmability. This means that money can be linked to specific conditions. For example, it could automatically expire if not spent within a certain period, or governments could restrict its use to specific goods, such as “green” products. This “Programmable Money” transforms free, sovereign currency into a tool for state-enforced discipline. It is the ultimate step towards a social credit system like those seen in authoritarian states.
Conclusion: Freedom Is at Stake
The Digital Euro is not a step forward for citizens but a trojan horse of power. It is a currency based not on trust, but on control. The potential for surveillance, the elimination of anonymity, and the coercion of programmable money are too high a price for the supposed convenience. If we allow cash to disappear, we give up a piece of our freedom forever. The resistance to the Digital Euro is not a step backward; it is a fight for our financial and personal sovereignty.
