United States presidential candidate Ron DeSantis once again criticized central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), arguing against the possibility of a digital dollar in the country.
Speaking at the Family Leadership Summit on July 14, DeSantis promised to ban CBDCs in the U.S. if he is elected president. “If I am the president, on day one, we will nix central bank digital currency. Done. Dead. Not happening in this country,” he said during the event in Iowa, which featured six other Republican candidates.
