At least on other blockchains I can still maintain privacy, open undoxxed wallets funded without KYC, hold my own keys, etc... submission to a CBDC is by far the worst evil, giving up all personal autonomy and financial sovereignty to a state controlled social credit system.

A half-victory is better than a total surrender.

Once I have amassed enough wealth to seriously consider early retirement, however, the prospect of moving to a country accepting Bitcoin as legal tender is not off the table.
