In reply to Mark E. Jeftovic. I call you on the One World Government. We have that now with Central Banks. Play ball, or get squashed. Do you not think these Bankers are calling the shots? They control almost everything.

In reply to Gman.

You’re one of those people who believe the governments of the world are all powerful entities and we live at their whims and mercy. The reality is the nation state as we understand it today is on the verge of unravelling. There will be no “one world government”, and no single currency aside from hyper-Bitcoinization – the currency of enemies.

However, if you truly believe you are powerless and destined to live enslaved as a social credit serf, then that is exactly how you are going to end up.

The alternative is, as I have been writing for some time: put your energy into the life you want, not the life you don’t want – become a Sovereign Individual, and take total responsibility for your life and your destiny.

The choice is yours.

I don't know much about Bitcoin or whether or not it's in some way backed by the governments of the world, or completely an independent way of buying and selling. One thing I do know is if it's in the way of the single global currency that is going to be implemented through most likely, Quantum Dot tattoo, it will be done away with through government legislation, all crypto will be ancient history. A social credit system created by a world government will be the only way to continue to buy and sell. The one world government will make it virtually impossible to stay out of the system and survive.

In reply to Goldie.

Nobody is disputing that.

What will give you problems is moving or traveling with any meaningful amount of it during a crisis.

With Bitcoin you can just memorize 12 words and get out of dodge.

In reply to Mark E. Jeftovic. Gold doesn't need blockchain, Internet or electricity. Gold will always be acceptable currency. It always has. Proof: human history.

In reply to Stanley The Man.

Well, “Stan the Man”…

At what point did I say that NatWest was a US bank? I know it’s a UK bank.

Does it matter if it’s a US or a UK bank when what’s happening is a global phenomenon?

The only misleading thing is your own ethnocentrism, assuming that anything you are reading on the internet has to be about America. I’m not even an American myself, which you would have known if you had any reading comprehension ability.

Your article on NatWest is very misleading. If you read the flyer carefully, it is from a UK bank, not a US Bank. I love Swiss America but you need to get your story straight. You said you verified it but obviously you did not.

In reply to EJ Canary. Bitcoin is decentralized so even if the net is out, the blockchain will continue unperturbed until it is back up. If you're positing a total global internet outage - including satellites (where the blockchain also resides now), then the problems will not be confined to Bitcoin, and even your gold is not going to be much help to you.

In reply to Cynthia Jantz. The thing you're missing is that Bitcoin (as distinct from all other cryptos) is a hard money. It's backed by energy from the Proof-of-Work mining algorithm and it's an inelastic, deflationary currency with a hard cap of 21 million units.

I understand the theory behind crypto currencies, however, I prefer hard, real Sound money (precious metals coins, bars, medals, commemorative, and also other newer forms of specie such as gold notes and goldbacks! We are definitely headed for CBDCs, and probably a "Global CBDC!!" Crypto currencies are backed by absolutely nothing! They, like our fiat paper Dollar, are based on nothing but faith in and pure speculation!! Thanks, but no thanks to faith in pure speculation!!
