Bank of America: 'Digital Dollar Inevitable' (Ad) Bank of America just revealed your expiration date. In their Bloomberg interview, they didn't just predict the digital dollar.

Your accounts could be frozen. Over 4,500 investors have already used this legal backdoor to hold assets CBDCs can't freeze and generate yields the Federal Reserve can't touch.
