Summary
Michelle Makori, President & Editor-in-Chief, Miles Franklin Media, breaks down the growing debate over central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) — and what a digital dollar could mean for your financial freedom. As lawmakers in Washington weigh whether to delay or block a CBDC, the implications go far beyond policy. A programmable, trackable digital currency could reshape how money works — from how you spend… to how much control you actually have over it. Globally, more than 130 countries are already exploring CBDCs, with China’s digital yuan leading the way. Supporters argue this is about efficiency, faster payments, and financial inclusion. Critics warn it could open the door to unprecedented financial surveillance and control. So what’s really at stake? In this episode of The Real Story with Michelle Makori: - What a CBDC actually is and how it works - Why the U.S. is debating a digital dollar now - The global move toward digital currencies - Risks of programmable money and financial control - The case for CBDCs: speed, efficiency, and policy tools - What this could mean for your money and your freedom Follow Michelle Makori on X: https://x.com/MichelleMakori Follow Miles Franklin Media on X: https://x.com/MilesFranklinCo 👍 Like, 🔔 Subscribe, and Stay Informed Join Miles Franklin Media for expert interviews, market insights, and real-time coverage of gold, silver, Bitcoin, and global economics.
