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. Through the Solari 60-Day Cash Challenge, we are taking practical steps to defend that freedom while advancing policies that secure it for the long term.
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.
Some states have passed laws outlawing CBDCs. Now we need to make sure that no form or system of programmable money can threaten our financial freedom. In addition to having developed model legislation to protect cash as a critical analog option, 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, there are citizens and legislators in Tennessee, Florida, and Idaho who are working on introducing this legislation.
