Bitcoin/Bitcoin cash are DECENTRALISED cryptocurrencies. It means that no one owns or controls it. You can remain anonymous using it. Anyone has access to it provided you have a digital wallet. Transactions are transparently stored in the public ledger. Transactions cannot be altered once complete.

ECCB’s Dcash is controlled by ECCB and ECCB alone. Knowing the above perhaps you can understand why central banks are doing everything to kill cryptocurrencies. It takes away their power. Central Bank digital currencies will allow governments to control how you spend your money, when you spend your money, on what you spend your money and they can outright deny you from spending you money. Ask yourself if this is a world you wish to live in.

Well said. They warn of the risks yet do not allow us the freedom to participate in the purchasing of crypto by blocking transactions. It’s a gimic, a sham and hypocritcal on the banks part.

The SALCC administrative community must take into account the obvious consequences of not addressing the current nursing department crisis at SALCC. Such an negative experience at the department of nursing is certainly a catalyst for the vast migration of nurses. Why is SALCC administration in support of our negative experience? Who is actually the principal of SALCC? Is the Nursing Department administration the Board of Governors of SALCC? Who is really in charge?

That one.

Soon the ECCB will be yet another useless legacy operation.
1. Dominica adopted TRON as legal tender – yall kicking them out as a member?
2. Does the ECCB own the DCASH software including the wallets? How much does the ECCB pay to Bitt for licensing their software?
3. Why is the ECCB playing in the same market it regulates?
4. Why was the DCASH wallet down for 2 months with no explanation and finally, a lie to the users?

I think the ECCB needs to answer these questions instead of issuing ridiculous warnings. Fun fact: they cannot regulate decentralized currency. Periodt.
