Best prepare for it before hand, rather than scramble to find a solution afterward!

I think you are right, but that's just me. Some people will learn this the hard way Grin

Unfortunately we're on the same page.

The claim sounds rather dubious.


Yes, backup power generators can keep power going though it's both not particularly reasonable to assume and does not apply to all towers according to this article. As for companies having backup generators, yes larger ones maybe so, though most businesses I dare say would be relying on infrastructure they are renting/relying on their building. I wouldn't be surprised if backup coverage was in the sub 10-20% across the board.

I do agree that it's quite a petty reason for CBDCs.

I have yet to hear any credible argument for CBDCs. It shows they are desperate to come up with with something.
