The nonprofit Human Rights Foundation (HRF) has launched a central bank digital currency (CBDC) tracker, the organization announced at the same Oslo Freedom Forum event it hosts. The online tracker has published educational materials and a tip line. It is expected to become fully functional by year-end.
The tracker came out of an eight-month fellowship at the HRF that was announced in January. The fellowship was awarded to Cato Institute policy analyst Nick Anthony, researcher Janine Romer and podcaster Matthew Mezinskis. The Cato Institute is an ardent opponent of CBDCs.
