Make Bitcoin “legal tender”.
Bitcoin in nothing more or less than a public ledger. The only way to make more is by “mining” which requires an initial investment in hardware and electricity. In effect it will put us on an “electricity standard” and it will make efficient of electrical generation the only way to make more Bitcoin.
Granted, the transition would be rocky, but putting the entire world on a Bitcoin standard will greatly benefit the entire human race by taking our wealth out of the hands of politicians, bankers, and thieves of all stripes and putting it where it belongs, in the hands of those who actually earned it.
I am not offering Bitcoin as a panacea.
I have faith that Human Nature, which is the universal compulsion to Game the System, will seek, as it always has, to find some way to get something for nothing. Human Nature is, after all, not only our means of survival but the very thing we invented Government to contain within acceptable limits.
Play right into the hands of our ChiCom monetary masters?
Maybe ask some of those FTX investors how secure their investment is/was.
Only thing worse than a Fed printing press (did you see Yellen Yellin’ for cranking it up and bumping up that money supply today?) is the damn internet and its masters controlling everyting bought or sold or owned. Great idea.
Maybe go back up to NotYet’s “short essay” he posted. Says it all.
I trust no money made up of 1’s & 0’s,that does “poof” when you kick the computer’s plug outta the socket….

Crypto of any stripe seems to be the exact opposite of anything private. Every single transaction, from “printing” to present, stored in a publicly accessible computer file? And every time someone else’s poor operational security allows a crypto wallet to be tied to a meatspace ID, thus giving another datapoint to anyone tracking/modeling transaction history?
Bank of America, et al. would use that info to monitor, influence, and outright control consumer behavior even faster than IRS/BATFE. Not with a 39.5 foot pole, folks.

Good description of the basis for bitcoin.
I prefer tally sticks.
Actually gold would be better. Bitcoin mining has a finite end, if I recall correctly.
Currency is currency, and money is money. Money has a value. Currency represents a value.
All is in motion, in play, no matter what.
If the Puppet Masters have decided that it’s time to move Dementia Joe out of the Oval Office, we can be sure the reason is as evil as the reason they inserted him there in the first place. We may soon be longing for the good old days when the Fake President was, at least, only a demented puppet.
If they help him die, they will be free to bypass any electoral process fair or otherwise to install their virtual selves as keeper of the codes…
Who or what will it be? It is up to them to decide that, and up to us to allow it or not. There is only one way to throw off the chains of an unjust government and that is by the actions, peaceful or not, of another sovereign government.
The puppeteers may have noticed that President Coattails would be an even bigger disaster than Joey the Wonder Corpse, which is why she wasn’t enthroned over a year ago. So they need to keep things nicely dicey for a bit longer so a better option can be selected. Um, elected.
Look for things to get more “Dump Joe” after the 21st when the new puppet can serve the remainder of Joe’s term plus two of their own.
Which should be time enough to completely destroy the country.

Not really an issue as to Cumala moving up; that would only last long enough for her to appoint *anybody* they choose as her veep who would immediately take her place when she is shit-canned or ‘cided…then their appointed “one” has control. Diabolical ain’t it? Therefore, right up their alley.

A “hung” jury?
As in, with a short rope over a tall tree branch?
The jury’s still out on that one.
In D.C., we’d need to hang the jury, the judge, the defense attorney, and the prosecuting attorney along with the defendant to get an honest trial.
Which one of the marble palaces in DC do we designate as the “Bastille”?
No need for a Bastille, when Levenworth’s down the road… complete with Ol’ Spadky.
Unfortunately, Leavenworth is halfway across the country, in Kansas.
How ironic would it be to convert either the Justice Building or FBI Headquarters to a holding facility?
That lot deserves the ambiance of a Supermax–Florence, CO or the SHU at Pelican Bay.
Send them all to gitmo!!
Send them all to Guillotino.
The Bastille for the hanging, or was storming?
Speaking of hanging… 😀

What to do with the fraudsters? But our entire currency system is built on it.
Oh! What to do?
