Here are just a few examples of what that sort of total control may look like:
Government in total control
The government could not only withhold money whenever they deemed fit but they could also devalue the currency.
Lack of privacy
The government will be aware of all of your financial information, what you owe and to whom, what you are spending money on, and what assets you have.
The end of personal security
No longer can you “hide” savings under your mattress. The government will always know how much you have and will have access to it.
Tracking of purchases
The government will be able to track everything you purchase—and potentially stop you from buying it. Let’s say it is something the political party in charge disagrees with, such as legalized marijuana. They can track you and prevent you from purchasing it again.
Tracking pornography purchases, abortion payments, tax evasion, and more…
While you may not think this is a bad idea, what if it goes a step further? What if they think you need to eat less red meat?
Hacking and data breaches
My head spins just thinking of all the ways a CBDC could be attacked by hackers or cyber terrorists.

CONSENSUS – a rule all participant agrees on when operating on the same network.
CONTRIBUTION SHARE – the hash rate a miner puts into the pool to contribute.
CPU – (Central Processing Unit) a processor, which coordinates the work of all the other part of a computer.
D
DAO (Decentralized Anonymous Organization) – organization running smart contracts.
DIFFICULTY – a measure of how difficult might be to mine a new block.
DIFFICULTY BOMB – malicious attack, increasing difficulty that much, that the reward doesn’t cover the expenses to mine.

DOWNTIME – a period when a machine isn’t working.
E
EXCHANGE – a platform to buy, trade and sell cryptocurrencies.
F
FIAT MONEY – national currency of a central government.
FORK – changing in the rules of the consensus, which might be able to exist with the old established rules (soft fork) or not (hard fork).
FPGA – a modern mining device, improving the ASIC, which can mine coins from one particular algorithm. The interesting here is that you can modify it to mine a different algorithm if you decide to change the coin you mine.
FULL NODE – storing the blockchain data locally on your PC.
G
GAINS – increasing profits (reward).
GENESIS BLOCK – the first block, computationally created in the blockchain. It contains the initial transaction.

HASH RATE – a unit to measure the computational power by which a miner contributes in the mining process.
HASH RENTAL – a rented computing power for mining purposes by a cloud mining provider.
HARD FORK – this is a protocol change, which results in splitting into two different chains and the longer one continuous existing. If both of them do – we have a chain split. These changes cannot cooperate with the old rules and require an update.

MINEABLE – a coin which can be mined in return of reward.
MINER – either the device or the person who’s performing the mining process.
MINER’s FEE – this is the reward a miner receives for its contribution to the network by validating transactions. Normally, miners choose transactions with higher fees to add in the next block to profit more and faster.
MINING – a process of extracting a cryptocurrency by adding and verifying transactions to the blockchain, respectively gaining a reward for it.
MINING POOL – group of miners, combining their power to find a block faster and sharing the reward from it too.
