  4. On September 9, the North Carolina Senate overrode the governor’s veto and passed a law that bans the use of the digital dollar as a form of payment in the state.

    Reasons for the Digital Dollar Ban

    The bill also prohibits the United States Federal Reserve from conducting any testing of a digital dollar in North Carolina. According to Senator Brad Overcash, the move symbolizes the state's rejection of a federal central bank digital currency.

    Opposition to Cryptocurrencies and Financial Innovations

    The ban raises questions about its legality and potential impact on financial innovations in the US. Some experts suggest that it may stem from political maneuvering and government distrust. However, in North Carolina, many are concerned about sovereignty and privacy issues.

    Global Context and Expert Opinions

    Professor Nir Kshetri from the University of North Carolina noted that similar privacy and sovereignty concerns are echoed globally. Europe, despite a cautious approach, is much further along in developing its digital currencies, highlighting America's lag in this area.

    North Carolina’s ban on the digital dollar could have significant implications for the future of financial innovation in the US. While other countries actively explore digital currencies, America risks falling behind.
