I don’t think anything would prevent a site from accepting digital euros from everyone. If you’re in the us, your local grocery store is perfectly free to accept any currency they want, and you’re free to spend any currency you want. If you and your local grocery store agree on it then it’s perfectly legal for you to buy an avocado from them for 1 euro.
There is no federal statute mandating that a private business, a person, or an organization must accept currency or coins as payment for goods or services.
When you want to buy something, that isn’t a debt. It’s only a debt if you already own the thing and haven’t paid for it yet, so the law about accepting dollars in payment for debt doesn’t apply.
We do. It’s called Crypto. That’s all the digital Euro is.
The problem is: through propaganda every American has been taught to hate crypto the same as democracy, socialism, and themselves.
Because those things would dramatically make American life better if they actually learned about them and implemented any of it correctly. Instead, most Americans convince themselves they know enough from social media about Crypto to down vote me.
Capitalism works because of the entrenched banking and fed system. Crypto doesn’t use any of that, and can’t be captured. That’s why Europe is adopting it. It’s less fraudulent than the current system that let’s you 2008 mortgage crisis anything you want with no repurcussion.
We could be using it too. But that scares the people with all the money in this corrupt system, so they use a lot of that money to convince you Crypto is for crime, while ignoring all the dollars used by drug and human trafficking cartels.
Bitcoin has risen in value from 2009 to now more than any other asset on the planet. Yet most here have been taught to believe that’s from crime instead of utility.
Europe isn’t quite that propaganda’d yet, so is adopting this tech first, and like the Euro with definitley be the first to benefit from it.
Man wish would could have something like that here in America.

Yeah, the law just says that you must accept US currency for debts owed. Doesn’t say you have to accept it for everything.
Yeah by law you must accept us dollars, but you’re allowed to accept anything else you want in addition
Only for debts owed. That’s how stores can say they only accept credit card. If you’re just buying something, a store can refuse US currency.
