The way they will get most people is out of convenience, you see the proliferation of payWave payments - not because people didn’t have a card in their pocket that needed 4 numbers punched in - but because of thoughtless convenience.

I believe they start the whole ball rolling by making you sign up for the cbdc to get your government handout - no cbdc , no benefit payout. Need a cbdc to pay taxes for businesses, need a cbdc to pay your local rates etc.
