I just know that there's a massive part of the economy in my country that is surviving by evading taxes, and I know that this part will not ever like the idea of receiving their payment digitally nor by "NFC Banknotes", whatever that is. Physical cash is often just preferable by every metric, except having to carry change perhaps. Cash is also accepted everywhere, not like cryptocurrencies which are also cash but need an off-ramp for practical use.

CBDCs simply have no unique use case in almost all countries--save being a political boogieman (which is unique to the USA). If no politician can articulate the difference between a CBDC and PayPal etc., it's a non-starter and it will never happen. Everything people are afraid a CBDC can do is already being done today with payment apps like PayPal, credit cards, crypto off-ramps, and even physical cash coming from ATMs is tracked.

Your idea is totally different from the one it is inspired of, but I agree with this point of view because the volatility can make it boring and people might lose interest but it can't maintain the higher volatility to rise more and more and it can't help with the downside volatility as well. It all depends on the community mean us, we are buying and selling. We are the ones setting the bars high or bars low in the bullish and bearish trend, respectively. I also think it is not a bug but a feature because due to this feature, it is benefiting till now and everyone is investing.

otherwise bro, why would someone be interested to buy bitcoin they will say the volatility is lower. Let's go in meme coins instead I know the volatility is not as high as it is in meme coins but you know what I am trying to say haha.

Do you have any way to solve it? I don't think so, it cannot be solved even if we consider it is a bug.
