I read half of this article and thought, ‘who is this guy? I have to find more of his writing, and I don’t care how much it costs. This guy’s a genius.’ All true. Every word.

Good day, Mark;

I'm 78 and in the markets 51 years. I'm in total agreement with you in re Mark Rostenko. I immensely enjoyed all that he wrote and for a while subscribed to The Sovereign Strategist.

Yours is a deeply aware and very insightful commentary, for which I thank you. I've sent it to 4 people who will be as grateful as I am for it.

I've spent months wondering why haven't we in North America gotten into the streets as they've done in Australia, France and Spain?

But perhaps our time is near, and we will do as I did in the Sixties, with tens of millions equally concerned for life and living more socially beneficial.

in the 1800s most banks issued their own currency much like crypt toe "market" today–then one day the usa gooooovermint decided that usa mint currency was the only legal tender—same thing will happen to the willy nilly crypt toes–bye

In reply to Mors Tyrannis. It's open source code. It doesn't matter who wrote it.

Bad news who do you think actually invented bitcoin? It was a government or a central bank. You want proof why hasnt the inventor ever cashed in his or her bitcoin? It appeared at the top of a financial collapse. Its a test to see if the morons of the world would except digits in a computer as money. You think its capped at 21 million your nuts its a unlimited supply each bitcoin can be broken down into 100 million satoshi’s and a unlimited value can be its worth. Its all about control every single transaction is recorded on the blockchain. Its a ledger is all it is. It has zero intrinsic value which makes it worth zero. Just like fiat it only has worth because people believe it has worth. That’s why God’s were invented by belief. In the past 10,000 years there have been approximately 100,000 religions and 2500 God’s all invented to control the ignorant masses. Just like this covid coup invented to control the masses. Everybody is being herded like sheep to the slaughter. You think governments control thing’s? Government’s are puppets having there strings pulled by the people who own this world, the real owner’s, the ones who control the wealth and it started thousands of years ago with the creation of religion. Kings were born from relgion. And a revolution is the only way out.

I am part of the T'd off majority, My belief that when the present masters speak, you can tell there being manipulative, obtuse and self serving because there lips move.
The idea of having a way to effectively standing against them eventual, fills me with hope.
Thank you for pointing out the possibility of eventual freedom.

In reply to GotCollateral.

This is why I’ve lately begun to differentiate between “Network States” a la Facebook, Google, in line with Elyashib’s comment, and “crypto claves”, which is what you’re talking about. (I’d prefer a better name for the latter).
