Lee said the digital currency was not related to the cross-border blockchain payments platform the HKMA has been working on with the central banks of China and Thailand since 2019.

Enoch Yiu enoch.yiu@scmp.comTue, June 8, 2021, 11:30 AM·4 min readThe Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) will study the feasibility of a digital currency over the next 12 months.The HKMA, the city's de facto central bank, will include users' privacy, security and anti-money-laundering concerns in the study, Eddie Yue Wai-man, the authority's chief executive (CEO), said on Tuesday. The announcement came during the launch of Fintech 2025, the HKMA's fintech plan for the next four years."Hong Kong people, nowadays, are more willing to use digital banking services. In addition, many overseas central banks have studied digital currencies. It is the right time for the HKMA to explore if we should have an e-Hong Kong dollar," Yue said. "The HKMA has set up a working group to study the technology and regulatory issues related to an e-Hong Kong dollar. We will have a conclusion in about 12 months."

The Great Reset means the issuance of medical passports, soon to be digitized, as well as the transparency of medical records inclusive of medical history, genetic makeup, and disease states. But it could include the implanting of microchips that would read and report on genetic makeup and brain states such that “[e]ven crossing a national border might one day involve a detailed brain scan to assess an individual’s security risk.”6

The advent of mobile phones yielded new primitives that gave rise to new social networks. Ubiquitous internet-connected, location-tagged cameras in particular enabled services like Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok.Blockchains are similarly transformative for social networks, as they provide a series of new tools. Consider for example a new social network organized around something as simple as issuing an Ethereum-based ERC-20 token to every member. This gives:Tokens. Every user of this token-based social network receives tokens. Depending on the issuance policy, early users may get more than later users.Balances. Every user now has the ability to buy items and pay users with their token-based balance, an obvious functionality that does not exist on Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.Crowdfunding. Every user can use their balance to crowdfund public goods on the site.Encryption. Every user has an Ethereum wallet public/private key pair, so they can digitally sign documents.Messaging. Every user can use their public/private key pair to send encrypted messages back and forth to each other.Partial Sovereignty. If the ERC-20 contract admin privileges are removed, or moved to a genuinely decentralized chain, tokens can't easily be seized by other parties. Users can't be deplatformed and community connections can't be broken by outside parties.Governance. The combination of the ability to communicate and transact allows for governance mechanisms with informational and financial components.Login. By hodling the token with something like a provable timelock, users can demonstrate that they are invested in the long-term health of the community. This can be used as a login criterion to access community-created services.Quantifiable Social Capital. The market cap of the token quantifies the value of being a member of the community.
