I can say something unexpected about the digital ruble. After mature reflection, I see signs of common sense here. This idea plan can be used to escape the prevailing needle without confrontation.
Judge for yourself.
After debugging the payment mechanisms in the digital ruble circuit (don't forget, there is no loan interest in this circuit), get people used to using these calculations, learn to control this circuit, and then calmly abandon the current system with loan interest - this is a more or less realistic way to get out of the influence of moneylenders at lower costs. But they will not stop with blood, the Libyans and the Persians are recent examples and this is where the question arises. Will this idea plan be implemented or is the global still so strong as a fifth column within us that it will distort the implementation and destroy the idea? But it can also lead to a digital concentration camp or the Chinese version (by the way, the Chinese have a good circulation in double circles, and the result is clearly visible in their economy, the only bad thing is that the authorities themselves will not resist the temptation to lead everyone into slavery).
I'll tell you this - a good sign for me would be when they actually create a standalone e-wallet as a separate mobile device. those. A physical medium with which it will be possible to perform calculations directly on another similar physical medium. At the same time, they will be the guardians of the information about calculations in the blockchain. Today it is still known that the payments are made through banks - that is, in order to perform the calculation, it is necessary to have intermediary bank(s) of the seller and the buyer. They perform the operation and transfer the information to the central bank. A kind of non-cash payment. those. It looks like the money is yours, but the bank is paying (on your order). The system is lame in that the bank may at some point not fulfill your order, stop it, ban it, etc. You remain a potential slave of the system. It's a temptation for her.
