Our priority at Solari is your freedom and the protection of your individual sovereignty and human rights. This means that you must enjoy financial freedom—the ability to use your resources and transact without invasive control by digital ID systems or programmable digital money.
Emerging systems of programmable digital currency could enable surveillance, control, or restriction of lawful financial activity. No one should ever be forced or coerced into using digital or programmable money that can be monitored or limited by government or private financial institutions. Legislation is needed to prohibit such coercion and to ensure that all digital systems respect financial privacy, autonomy, and freedom of choice.
Many of us have become informed about the dangers of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) because the central bankers have explicitly told us that they can create the rules for how, when, and where we can use our money, also reminding us that they have the technology to enforce those rules centrally.
However, these same control mechanisms can also be applied to private cryptocurrencies, such as stablecoins and asset tokens. You can read more about this in our article about the GENIUS Act and stablecoins.
Solari has prepared model legislation to help states protect their citizens against being coerced or forced into using digital money. Linked here is our draft of the Consumer Payments Rights and Transparency Act.
Please send it to your state senators and representatives and ask them to sponsor this legislation in your state. If you have any questions about how to go about doing this, please email Elizabeth@Solari.com or check out our document Working Successfully with State Leaders. Currently, citizens and legislators in Tennessee, Florida, North Carolina, Colorado, Wisconsin, and Idaho are working on introducing this legislation. If you live in one of those states and would like to be connected to the people championing it there, please email Elizabeth@Solari.com.
In a recent episode of Financial Rebellion titled “Take Action Against the Control Grid,” Carolyn Betts, Twila Brase, Reinette Senum, and Polly Tommey explore what’s at stake as digital control systems advance and what citizens can do now to push back to preserve privacy, local autonomy, and freedom. You can watch the video here.
In freedom,
The Solari Team
