The launch of the digital euro could give every European a free, universal payment account. But this grand vision is at risk of being curtailed by a well-coordinated lobbying campaign of the banking industry. Banks want to make sure you will keep needing them – and they have EU officials’ ears.

    I don’t want a volatile currency as my main currency. Also, I think PoW isn’t the way to go anymore. A digital PoS “Monero” (Cryptonote, etc.) stablecoin is what I was thinking about.
