That Thailand is right now pushing CBDC on its citizens is appalling: a nation that had 20 constitutions since 1932, and is the 4º in number of cups worldwide, is basically creating a non-anonymous ledger with fully traceable transactions, and KYC requirements.
Just imagine if such a tool fall in the hands of an authoritarian?
At least they went with the token based solution instead of the fully dystopian account based one.
