First I thought it was some sort of breakthrough that they are actually planning. Imagine reading this news itself SEC and CBDC would have been so happy since after this they might have thought they would get a chance to spread negativity about the Bitcoin and thus publish the FedNow system more promptly.
Good to know (after reading rest discussion) it’s not really possible to break the code until it really happens. It also made me think that Satoshi did not make it so easy as his plan is for hundreds of years until 2140 by when the last Bitcoin would be mined.
It’s seems it will get more stronger with the time as the complexity of network keeps increasing.
