世界各國政府和金融機構一直在達沃斯舉行會議。 議程本可以包括如何將所有公民聚集到失敗的貨幣體系的燃燒建築中。 為什麼比特幣如此重要?
為什麼加密貨幣會造成如此混亂?
當來自世界許多國家的領導人和代表以及西方金融機構的領導人齊聚達沃斯會議參加年度峰會時,討論的一個關鍵點也許是如何處理比特幣和加密貨幣。
與投資於政府債券、股票和構成法定貨幣體系的所有其他無數金融產品的數百萬億美元價值相比,其市值仍然極小且相當無關緊要,這似乎有點令人驚訝加密貨幣可能會在各國領導人和央行之間引發如此混亂。
世界經濟狀況如何
直到人們真正考慮我們所處的金融環境。 美國目前負債34兆美元,光是支付這筆利息就已經超過了其全部國防開支的年度預算。
世界其他地區的債務也達到了前所未有且不可持續的水平。 日本是債務水準下降最嚴重的國家,截至 2023 年 3 月,其債務與 GDP 比率為 263%,日本央行購買了其中 43.3% 的債務。
世界各地的大多數公民可能都不知道這些數字,或者即使知道,也可能不理解這些數字對他們的金錢、工作和生活的影響。
一個破碎的系統
事實是,這個系統已經嚴重崩潰,正處於崩潰的邊緣。 這種情況是否會很快發生,或者是否可以再擱置幾年,都是一個有爭議的問題。
在美國,許多銀行都靠著維生系統維持生命,只有聯準會借給它們大量現金才能維持生命,並且或多或少保證不會讓它們倒閉,至少是全球系統重要性銀行(G-SIB) 。
被允許倒閉的小型銀行很可能會被聯準會吃掉其資產負債表中有毒的部分,然後被打包並以低廉的價格賣給摩根大通等大型銀行。 畢竟,控制幾家大銀行比控制數百家小銀行要容易得多。
CBDC 的實施
由於整個以法定貨幣為支撐的全球體系中存在如此多的金融失敗或即將發生的失敗,中央銀行只能採取一條路線來擺脫他們自己設計的混亂局面,那就是實施中央銀行數位貨幣(CBDC)。
CBDCs are such a shocking change to the entire financial system that it is a complete wonder how their impending rollout is not properly debated or discussed. That is until one considers just how easy it is to make sure that the mainstream media keeps this particular topic off the front page, and if it is discussed, then a benign slant is put on it.
The imposition of CBDCs are exactly how central banks will lock the entirety of a country’s citizens inside the burning building.
Donald Trump recently said that he would make sure that a CBDC would not be issued in the US. However, there are ways and means for something similar to enter via the back door, by changes to FedNow, or even during a period of crisis, such as another virus outbreak, or other black swan event.
The evil of CBDCs
One of the most evil aspects of CBDCs is that they are programmable. If the government or central bank doesn’t want citizens to buy assets like gold, silver and bitcoin, they can stop these purchases through citizen’s digital wallets.
In fact, they can be programmed to carry out many other impositions, such as forcing citizens to spend a required amount of CBDCs within a certain time limit or risk losing them.
They can also be tied to a social credit score system, just as is being piloted in China. All kinds of activities that the government perceives as not behaving as an exemplary citizen, such as traffic infractions, anti-social behaviour, or perhaps the making of a donation to an opposition political party, could all be penalised through the citizen’s wallet, which could be in the form of not allowing them to access public transport or even barring entry to supermarkets.
Crypto is the people’s money
Those who label people making these observations as ‘conspiracy theorists’ should really look back through history, and note the lengths that certain interested parties will go to in order to influence governments to make changes that extend the power of intelligence agencies, and promote financial interests, at the expense of personal freedoms.
So tying back to the beginning of this opinion piece, why would governments and the leaders of the big banks and all the worlds’ financial agencies see the cryptocurrency industry as so problematic?
The answer is that it is private money. Some might argue with this definition, and the author of this opinion article is willing to accept a more exact definition.
However, that being said, crypto provides ways of transferring value from anyone, anywhere in the world, to anyone else, also in any part of the world, and much quicker and cheaper than the banks are able to do, and without any third party extracting their fees from the transactions, or without any government, or financial agency having any say in them.
Governments and banks want to control crypto
The main problem with this arrangement is, that as mentioned, governments and central banks are not in control here. Many politicians and leaders of banks might say that crypto is only used for money laundering, terrorist financing, and sex trafficking, so of course, there needs to be surveillance and permissioning over all these types of activities.
Those using crypto to make their transactions would say in return that cryptocurrencies use blockchain technology, and transactions leave a path behind them for the kinds of government agencies that have the resources to trace illicit operations.
It might also be argued that privacy and freedom to transact are inalienable human rights. Some transactions could possibly slip through the net and fund some terrorist group or other - but does this give our governments the right to completely erase the freedoms of entire populations?
Current financial system at last gasp
We are at the most important juncture in financial history. It is beyond doubt that the fiat monetary system has failed. In order to pay the interest on the current debt, more debt has to come into being, and more debt will have to be conjured into existence in order to pay the interest on that debt. It is a never ending spiral.
When new presidents or prime ministers come into office, do they do so promising to cut back on spending, and vowing to balance the books? Of course not. They wouldn’t get into power on such a promise. All are eager to see more money printing now, at the expense of their children, and their children’s children.
That said, there should be no misunderstanding here. No amount of cutbacks or austere economic measures can help to reverse the global debt pile. The money printers have taken us far beyond the point of no return.
All that can be done is to try to keep this lumbering juggernaut on the rails just a little longer. Once CBDCs are launched across the world, governments will simply move from the old system to the new, and thereby cut all the debt adrift in that old system.
Decentralisation or totalitarianism?
But surely that’s a good thing isn’t it? We would all be free of that impossible debt. If we are prepared to give up all our assets and agree to come under the yolk of totalitarianism and total surveillance, then yes, it might be a good thing.
The positive thing here is that this hasn’t happened yet. The citizenry can turn to bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. There are many imperfections in this industry, but this is because it is still so nascent. However, the potential here is simply breathtaking.
No wonder the banks hate it, and those who pull the strings of governments. Decentralisation is anathema to these people. If the network consists of millions of private computers across the entire globe, just as is the case with bitcoin, there is no way to assert control over people.
Plans are in place to destroy crypto
達沃斯、政府最高層及其他地方將進行非常非常嚴肅的對話。 顛覆並最終摧毀加密貨幣的計劃已經醞釀出來,並且可能正在實施。
正是出於這個原因,任何有興趣維護自己自由的人都應該花時間進行有關比特幣以及傳統金融體系的教育。 請注意,這不是一個短期的工作,因為即使對兩者有基本的了解也需要一些時間。
避免錯誤訊息 - 尋找真相
最後一件事,發表這類文章變得越來越困難。 主流媒體聽從政府的說法,這種另類觀點很可能無法獲得平台。
也必須承認,作者的觀點可能是完全錯誤的。 全球金融機構的領導人和有影響力的政治家經常警告社交媒體平台和其他未經政府批准的網站上充斥著「錯誤訊息」。
考慮到這一點,請透過研究比特幣來進行盡職調查,並讓自己了解「貨幣」到底是如何存在的,以及中央銀行和各種未經選舉產生的全球金融組織在這一切中所扮演的角色。 你的自由取決於它。
