CBDC Explained: Can Your Money Really Expire?

Ever wondered what happens if your money could expire, get frozen instantly, or stop you from buying certain things? That’s the power of CBDC, or Central Bank Digital Currency. In this video, we break down CBDC in the simplest way possible, explaining what it is, how it works, why governments want it, and why many people are concerned about it.

We explain how CBDC is different from crypto, mobile banking, or PayPal, how it gives central banks full control over your digital wallet, and how programmable money could be used to block purchases, limit spending, or even delete your money after a deadline. You’ll also learn about the real-world CBDC projects already happening in China (Digital Yuan or e-CNY), Europe (Digital Euro), Digital Rupee, the planned FedNow, and beyond, plus why experts, crypto supporters, civil liberty groups, and even commercial banks are worried.

Using simple language, humor, and real-life examples, this video makes the complex topic of CBDC easy to understand. Whether you are curious about the future of money, digital currency, financial surveillance, or how central banks and governments plan to reshape your wallet, this video is for you.
