Not at all…A combination of both traditional way and digitization might be more sensible...

 

1. important things e.g. personal account, important documents, control panel for electricity, traffic lights, water etc must be separated from online accessibility

2. printed version of important documents and filing of those are still important to avoid unsolicited changes made by lawyers, trustees, managers, assistants to the rich, PA, secretary etc etc

3. total transparency could affect safety of commoners in time to come. It is not suitable unless everyone is having nothing or having minimally that nobody bothers to know or so..........

Total transparency ought to be used on politicians and government servants so that their integrity is constantly reviewed......... For example, according to a news clip, Annuar Ibrahim of Malaysia declared his asset vaguely as total assets and properties of hundreds of millions or billions, without shares or anything else. For a government servant earning RM3,500 for decades (with a family of 5 or 6 to be fed), jailed without earning for decades, this should be investigated further and declined application or disqualified shall further clarification is not able to be made...........

If all politicians with political parties behave the same, let's give independent candidates a chance to prove their worth from neutral ground..........

How farsightedness sometimes fails us...............… 'n'

EXCERPTS:  GLOBAL DIGITAL ID

 

...the following is introduced in Article 23: 

We acknowledge the importance of shared technical standards and verification methods, under the framework of the IHR (2005), to facilitate seamless international travel, interoperability, and recognizing digital solutions and non-digital solutions, including proof of vaccinations.

We support continued international dialogue and collaboration on the establishment of trusted global digital health networks as part of the efforts to strengthen prevention and response to future pandemics, that should capitalize and build on the success of the existing standards and digital COVID-19 certificates.

Interestingly, the next paragraph of the formal declaration, article 24, goes on to describe the need to for global institutions to fight against 'disinformation'....

The generation that grew up with video games doesn't even carry cash; I have been to some stores that the cashier either gave me back to much or sat there pondering what the correct amount to give. Governments want digital as stated above In the above article as a way to know “ What, When, Why, and How Much you are doing. “

Go to any bank and cash a check for $9,000.00 and see the look you get; then, a second person has to approve. Additionally, they then need to need to hit the vault because no one drawer has that much. Ask for large bills and you really get a look.

Nigeria Limits ATM Withdrawals To $45 Per Day To Force Govt-Controlled Digital Payments

by Tyler Durden

Thursday, Dec 08, 2022 - 05:55 AM

A staggering number of Nigerians love Bitcoin, but hate government cryptocurrency (CBDCs).

In April, leading cryptocurrency exchange KuCoin noted that 35% of the adult population in Nigeria - roughly 34 million adults aged 18-60, own bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. But when it came to the country's Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC), the eNaira, it was a massive failure.

According to Bloomberg, only 1 in 200 Nigerians use the eNaira - despite government implemented discounts and other incentives, implemented as desperate measures to increase adoption.

Now, the government is looking to boost digital payments by limiting ATM withdrawals to just 20,000 naira, or roughly US$45 per day, Bloomberg reports, citing a circular sent to lenders on Tuesday. The previous withdrawal limit was 150,000 naira (US$350).

Weekly cash withdrawals from banks are now limited (without fee) to 100,000 naira (US$225) for individuals, and 500,000 naira (US$1,125) for corporations. Any amount above this will incur a fee of 5% and 10% respectively.

The action is the latest in a string of central bank orders aimed at limiting the use of cash and expand digital currencies to help improve access to banking. In Nigeria’s largely informal economy, cash outside banks represents 85% of currency in circulation and almost 40 million adults are without a bank account. 

The central bank last month announced plans to issue redesigned high value notes from mid-December to mop up excess cash and it’s given residents until the end of January to turn in their old notes. The bank also plans to mint more of the eNaira digital currency, which was launched last year but has faced slow adoption. -Bloomberg

What's more, new rules which will take effect Jan. 9 will ban the cashing of checks above 50,000 naira (US$112) over-the-counter, and 10 million naira (US$22,480) through the banking systems. Point-of-sale cash withdrawals have been capped at 20,000 naira ($45).

Meanwhile, banks are only allowed to load their ATMs with 200 naira denominations and under, while individuals and corporations will be allowed to cash a maximum of 5 million and 10 million naira respectively if there are "compelling circumstances not exceeding once a month," and which will be subject to enhanced due diligence along with processing fees, according to the central bank. Such withdrawals will also require the approval of a bank CEO.

"Customers should be encouraged to use alternative channels—Internet banking, mobile banking apps, USSD, cards, POS, eNaira to conduct their banking transactions," said the central bank on Tuesday.
