Geopolitics

How do you foresee permissionless blockchains like Ethereum coexisting with future centralized CBDCs/infrastructure on the rise?

I'd be very interested to read answers as well. My take is that large sovereigns will never accept losing authority over issuance policy, and we'll see a split between top-down centralized infra for hard money and permissionless for the creative and soft-money (gaming, licensing, etc.) economy

Do you think permissionless custody/transacting will become illegal/portrayed as illicit in the mainstream?

I very much expect any money mover that's not KYC/AML compliant to become illicit once it reaches critical mass, yes. That includes blockchains used for transactions and settlement of money-like tokens. Compliance will be the price to pay for actual mainstream adoption IMHO
