ECONOMY | CBDCs Are Back—and They’re Terrified of Trump, Silver, and Stablecoins

CBDCs Are Back—and They’re Terrified of Trump, Silver, and Stablecoins

The specter of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) looms large over America’s financial future, a digital shackle designed by globalists to erode personal freedoms and empower tyrannical surveillance. As a viral Rumble video aptly warns, CBDCs are clawing their way back into the conversation, but they’re quaking in fear of President Donald Trump, the resurgence of silver as a tangible asset, and the decentralized power of stablecoins. Under the Biden-Harris regime, CBDCs were aggressively pursued as a tool for total control, but Trump’s triumphant return has slammed the brakes on this dystopian agenda. His policies, both current and expected, stand as a bulwark for liberty-loving Americans, prioritizing crypto innovation, precious metals, and financial sovereignty over Big Brother’s digital dollar. Let’s rewind to the dark days of the Biden administration, where CBDCs were positioned as the next “inevitable” step in monetary evolution. In March 2022, Biden issued an executive order directing federal agencies to explore the development of a U.S. CBDC, framing it as a means to bolster the dollar’s global dominance amid China’s digital yuan advances.

Conservative critics rightly decried this as a Beijing-style power grab, allowing the Federal Reserve to track every transaction, freeze accounts at will, and eliminate privacy in finance. The Fed, under Biden’s influence, ramped up studies on CBDCs, touting benefits like faster payments and reduced bank runs, but ignoring the elephant in the room: it would centralize control in the hands of unelected bureaucrats, potentially weaponizing money against dissenters. Heritage Foundation experts warned that CBDCs would “guarantee future inflation and runaway spending” by removing private banks from the equation, echoing socialist models that stifle innovation. Biden’s push wasn’t subtle. His administration quietly planned a future where Americans “don’t own money,” with programmable CBDCs dictating what you can buy—perhaps restricting purchases of guns, gas-guzzling trucks, or even red meat in the name of climate zealotry.  Continued below this next AWESOME clip

Fox News highlighted how this aligned with China’s digital currency lead, urging the U.S. to catch up, but conservatives saw through the facade: it was about dominance over citizens, not competition with adversaries. Monica Crowley, former Treasury official, blasted CBDCs as eliminators of privacy and financial freedom, a sentiment echoed across right-wing outlets. The Federal Reserve’s FedNow system was viewed as a precursor, centralizing transactions and paving the way for full CBDC implementation, threatening liberty at its core.

Enter President Trump, whose policies have turned the tide. Upon reclaiming the White House in January 2025, Trump wasted no time issuing an executive order prohibiting U.S. agencies from establishing, issuing, or promoting CBDCs.
This bold move, part of a flurry of pro-crypto actions, explicitly bans the Fed from meddling in digital currencies that could surveil Americans.

Trump’s order emphasizes that CBDCs pose an unacceptable risk to privacy, allowing government overreach into personal finances—a vow he made during his 2024 campaign, labeling them a “dangerous” technology for monitoring and seizing assets. Building on this, Trump signed the GENIUS Act into law in July 2025, making the U.S. the “crypto capital of the planet.” This legislation, passed by the House after GOP holdouts secured assurances on CBDC bans, explicitly prohibits the Federal Reserve from issuing CBDCs and using them for monetary policy.

The Act promotes stablecoins—decentralized, dollar-pegged cryptos—as alternatives, fostering innovation without central control. Trump’s administration has struck deals with congressional Republicans to ensure no backdoor CBDC revival, aligning with House bills like the CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act. Looking ahead, Trump’s expected policies will double down on this anti-CBDC stance. Insiders predict he’ll continue championing precious metals like silver and gold as hedges against fiat instability, echoing conservative calls for sound money.

“I cannot think of a more dangerous initiative than this… We simply have to say no.” Nigel Farage on the desperate push to roll out digital ID, CBDCs and a cashless society—globally—by 2030. “If we’re not careful, we head towards a Chinese-style social credit system, where unless you go along with the views of the day, you become a non-person.”

Silver, in particular, terrifies CBDC proponents because it’s tangible, untraceable, and immune to digital freezes— a real asset for patriots wary of inflation and government overreach. Trump’s pro-crypto pivot, including Bitcoin mining incentives and stablecoin frameworks, positions these as freedom-preserving alternatives. National Review notes that under Trump, the focus shifts from CBDC power grabs to empowering individuals through decentralized finance. Why the terror? CBDCs fear Trump because he exposes their true nature: tools for elites to punish “wrongthink” via programmable money. Stablecoins, backed by private innovation, offer efficiency without surveillance, while silver represents enduring value outside the system’s grasp. Heritage warns that CBDCs enable bureaucrats to fine or block accounts for spreading “misinformation,” a nightmare Trump has vowed to prevent. His policies encourage crypto adoption, with the GENIUS Act paving the way for stablecoin dominance.

X posts echo this sentiment, with users celebrating Trump’s ban as a death knell for CBDCs. One patriot noted, “Trump has ruled out CBDC for America,” while others warn of globalist puppets pushing digital chains. Even skeptics acknowledge Trump’s executive actions have made CBDCs “illegal now.” In contrast to Biden’s surveillance state blueprint, Trump’s vision restores financial freedom. Expect further executive actions to bolster silver-backed investments and stablecoin regulations, ensuring America leads in innovation, not authoritarianism. CBDCs may be back in rhetoric, but with Trump at the helm, they’re doomed. Silver shines, stablecoins surge, and freedom prevails.
