“2024”: Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs): The New Frontier in the Battle for Privacy and Freedom
Author of Best-Selling Novel “2024” Warns Against the Digital Euro
Joe Martin, the acclaimed author of the best-selling novel “2024: Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs): The New Frontier in the Battle for Privacy and Freedom,” recently delivered a compelling speech at the German Parliament, Deutscher Bundestag. The event was initiated by Joana Cotar, MdB, under the “Bitcoin im Bundestag” (Bitcoin in the Parliament) initiative.
In his address, Martin highlighted the specific dangers posed by the digital Euro, which the European Central Bank (ECB) is planning to introduce. He emphasized the critical need for politicians, lawmakers, bankers, and the general public to be aware of the potential for unprecedented financial surveillance and control that CBDCs could enable.
Martin warned that the ECB would have the capability to track and control all financial transactions conducted with the digital Euro. This power could extend to blocking payments at will, leading to a surveillance state reminiscent of George Orwell’s dystopian novel “1984.” Martin’s novel “2024” serves as a successor to Orwell’s work, telling the story of Winston Smith’s son, who was born in 1984 and turns 40 in the year 2024. The narrative explores how the means of control and surveillance have evolved, with central bank digital money playing a pivotal role.
“The introduction of the digital Euro by the ECB represents a significant threat to individual privacy and financial freedom. It is crucial that we understand the implications of such a system, where every transaction can be monitored and controlled by a central authority. This is not a distant future; the technology already exists today,” said Joe Martin, CEO and author.
Martin’s speech, delivered in German, underscored the urgency of the issue. He called for a collective awareness and action to prevent the potential misuse of CBDCs. The dangers he outlined are not limited to the digital Euro but extend to other digital currencies like the digital Dollar.
