One hundred and nine economists, including Nobel laureates and prominent business leaders, have publicly criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's proposed cryptocurrency plan. The group warned that the approach, intended to address potential international sanctions, is of no help whatsoever and could devastate the country's investment sector, high-tech industry, and overall living standards for Israelis.

The initiative has drawn sharp concern from the economic and entrepreneurial community regarding its practicality and potential fallout. Critics argue that relying on or implementing such a strategy to counter international pressure risks isolating Israel's economy and damaging key growth engines that sustain the nation's financial stability.
