Sweden’s government will start exploring the feasibility of having the country move to a digital currency, marking another step into the unknown for the world’s most cashless society.

Per Bolund, financial markets minister, said a review launched on Dec 25 is expected to be completed by the end of November in 2022. Anna Kinberg Batra, a former chairwoman of the parliament’s finance committee, will lead the inquiry.

Sweden is among the first countries in the world to consider introducing a digital currency. Its central bank is already running a pilot project with Accenture Plc to introduce an electronic krona based on the same blockchain technology that underpins digital currencies like Bitcoin.

Governor Stefan Ingves said in October that any decision on whether to issue an e-krona needs to be taken at the political level.

All the Gen Z, millennials want this; they are too stupid to believe the government can make an adjustment and take from you.

Once it’s digital, it’s theirs not yours. They will control how much you can have, where you can spent it and what you can purchase. Coming to a country near you.

Awesome. They can tie your banking and financials in with the CV vaccination certificate. Isn’t that swell? No more thinking needed. Sort of like the “Alexa, suggest something for me to do.” WTF!

And when it fails in Sweden, the U.S. will say:

"We'll show you how to do it right......"

If Sweden involved Accenture in this project, the project is already doomed.

its bad enough that the govt controls almost everything...now, will we be able to go to a garage sale with ...cash?

THIS should end well. It was so hard to predict! /s

How many other countries will follow suit?

“follow suit” - “conform to another’s actions.”

(i.e.) “Spain cut its rates by half a percent but no other country has followed suit”

Please, please, do watch this 48 minute video interview with Catherine Austin Fitts. She explains it all, the pillars of banking, pharma, govt, etc. They intend to enslave the world and your own body will be the wallet for your cryptocurrency when they refine this nanoparticle technology. Your mark of the beast keeps you connected to your money, you will not be able to buy & sell without it. The only thing she doesn’t mention is the use of luciferase.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=C1-0XKYAZII&feature=youtu.be

There is another video where she only addresses how the central banks will control and abuse you using their issued cryptocurrencies. These are the finishing touches we are living in today to the global tyranny under AC. Catherine Austin Fitts on blockchain & cryptos:

Absolutely. And ours will be tied to social credit scores that just magically appear when the time is right.
