The Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s Innovation Center, or NYIC, announced that it would be launching a 12-week proof-of-concept pilot for a central bank digital currency, or CBDC.
Back in March, we told you how pretend president Joe Biden signed an Executive Order to set the table to create a United States Central Bank Digital Currency. Today comes the announcement that the New World Order is sending representatives from assorted global banking conglomerates to begin as 12-week pilot program at the Federal Reserve of New York. What does all this mean? It means we just got another giant step closer to the biblical Mark of the Beast which will control all financial transactions.

“And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.” Revelation 13:17 (KJB)
Is it just me, or is it another one of those ‘strange coincidences’ that at the very time one of the world’s largest crypto exchanges, FTX, has been mysteriously put out of business the announcement is made of the establishment of a pilot program to create a US digital currency? Sure is funny how that stuff works, isn’t it? They are calling it the CBDC, I am calling it MOTB, which is ultimately what it will end up being. And you can bet your digital ‘bottom dollar’ that’ll happen exactly as Revelation says it will.
New York Federal Reserve launches 12-week CBDC pilot program with major banks
FROM COINTELEGRAPH: In a Nov. 15 announcement, the New York Fed said the program would explore the feasibility of an “interoperable network of central bank wholesale digital money and commercial bank digital money operating on a shared multi-entity distributed ledger” on a regulated liability network. Banking giants including BNY Mellon, Citi, HSBC, Mastercard, PNC Bank, TD Bank, Truist, U.S. Bank and Wells Fargo will be participating in the pilot by issuing tokens and settling transactions through simulated central bank reserves.
“The NYIC looks forward to collaborating with members of the banking community to advance research on asset tokenization and the future of financial market infrastructures in the U.S. as money and banking evolve,” said NYIC Director Per von Zelowitz.
The proof-of-concept project will test the “technical feasibility, legal viability, and business applicability” of distributed ledger technology, as well as simulate tokens and explore regulatory frameworks. The NY Fed said the project could “potentially be extended to multi-currency operations and regulated stablecoins.”
The launch of the NYIC pilot project followed the center releasing research on its wholesale central bank digital currency program on Nov. 4. The first phase of the CBDC trial, dubbed Project Cedar, tested foreign exchange spot trades to determine whether a blockchain solution could improve “speed, cost, and access to cross-border wholesale payments.”
Federal regulators in the United States have not reached any consensus on whether to launch a digital dollar in the country, but agencies and those in the private sector have been exploring the possibility. Following U.S. President Joe Biden issuing an executive order aimed at establishing a framework on digital assets, some lawmakers questioned what Congress’ role might be in passing legislation in support of a CBDC and how a digital dollar might curtail similar innovations from the private sector.
