They will probably push harder to make difficult/ illegal using decentralized cryptocurrencies.

They will thank to all the opensource projects that helped to mature CBDC, and kick them out.

It's possible CBDC's will only be launched in certain countries. I'm hoping at least America will embrace crypto instead of pushing it offshore (and of course also figure out the regulatory aspects to reduce/eliminate the bad actors in the space). Time will tell.

Eventually we will get to LPI/LPD mesh networks as a requirement to run zk-based cryptos. Unless we self-host at the PHY layer with software radios, they will tighten the screws until we are all enslaved.
