Hahahaa. Right, RFID chips are gonna get rid of gun violence. Just like getting rid of guns is gonna get rid of senseless murders. What's sad and shocking is the fact that the masses actually believe this. So then, maybe they deserve being enslaved. But yes, the end game here [with Bitcoin et al] is to chip all the sheep.The article makes it sound so wonderful and like everyone except a few people want it. And as you said, their are alot of people who will actually run as fast as they can to get their kids chipped and take the guns if the opportunity ever presents itself. I think that most people will grudgingly go for something like this with little to no fuss. After that it would become mandatory on everyone. These types of ideas are usually never introduced to the masses all at once or in a mandatory fashion. Float the idea to guage reactions, manipulate a bunch of vocal sheep into supporting the idea, roll it out in small increments to acclimate the willing and the hesitant, once adoption reaches critical mass--force it on everyone. That's the way they learned to roll out new restrictive or controversial policies in prison and it was highly successful at avoiding violent conflict. The same technique is used out in society. |

I just figured it out!! Vlad, you're really Alex Jones IRL, right?
No, he's actually too much of a conspiracy nut for me. HAHAHAHA that made my day! Riddle me this: is the US Marshall Service really this inept ( http://techcrunch.com/2014/06/18/bitcoin-auction/) or was this deliberate? |

Unsurprisingly, the setting for this policy is good ole Columbia, South Cackalacky. Columbia at one time had the highest number of lawyers per capita while the state boasted one of the highest incarceration rates. In fact, it is so bad there that the unofficial state motto is "Come on vacation, leave on probation." In a nutshell, SC is the asshole of the United States. |

...those numbers are tiny compared to the money in US (and European) pension funds (401K, IRA, etc.).
Without a doubt my numbers represent but a fraction of the total wealth available for conversion to btc but it does illustrate just how high the price could go and how it could affect wealth brackets. If: 115,000,000 Families * $3800 = $437,000,000,000 $437,000,000,000 / 2,500,000 BTC = $174,800 And if the average person were to wait until conversion was mandatory: $3,800 / $174,800 = 0.0217391304347826 BTC $10,000 / $174,800 = 0.05720823798627 BTC $100,000 / $174,800 = 0.5720823798627002 BTC $1,000,000 / $174,800 = 5.720823798627002 BTC Everyone who currently owns 0.1 btc and $0 would be about 4 times more wealthy (as measured in btc) than the average family with $3800 in the bank but 0 btc. By forcing everyone to convert from fiat to btc and use it as "legal tender for all debts public and private" the vast majority of people would be living in btc poverty as compared to an early adopter sitting on 0.1 btc. The psychological impact would be enormous. If one were to factor in all the money that could conceivably be converted to btc the results would be much more extreme. By "inflating" the price of btc relative to fiat and then forcing everyone to convert to btc the vast majority of people would find themselves bitcoin paupers. Not a single USD would have to be stolen, appropriated, or confiscated. |

Here are a few stats to get you started:
The average US family bank account balance: $3800
Number of families in the US: over 115 million
Total BTC mined: 12.792 million
115,000,000 Families * $3800 = $437,000,000,000
$437,000,000,000 / 12,792,00 BTC = $34,162
$3,800 / $34,162 = 0.1112347052280311 BTC
$437,000,000,000 / 2,500,000 BTC = $174,800
$3,800 / $174,800 = 0.0217391304347826 BTC
Now consider this: What if there were a way to force everyone in the US to exchange their USD for BTC? What if the amount of BTC allocated to the US were only about 2.5 million? What if BTC was in a bull market or the USD was taking a dive for a month or two just prior to the forced conversion? Obviously my stats aren't perfect and there are other factors to consider but despite any inaccuracies the result is still the same: the average american family would be going from having $3800 in the bank to only fractions (0.0217391304347826! OUCH!) of BTC. The wealth would instantly be redistributed and the shock to society would be devastating Think about it: if a surprise forced conversion were implemented after the price is jacked sky high there would be a lot of people who are USD rich who would be effectively made middle to lower class over night. Another interesting stat: allegedly 25% of US families have NO money in the bank. Obviously they wont lose much but they also won't gain a damn thing either. The poor stay poor, the middle class becomes poor, and the rich become poor. Who gets rich? Who is buying all the bitcoins? Who is orchestrating this whole scheme? It's not hard to see what's going. China makes a lot of noise about btc but they haven't banned it. Russia did the same thing. How many bitcoins do you think the Chinese and Russians own? Half? Quarter? The Chinese invested a shit ton of money on mining gear and buying bitcoins. Keep in mind: the Chinese govt allowed a pro bitcoin television program to be aired. They were encouraging people to get involved. How many are tied up in big investment funds or lost? What about the US govt and Fed? How much have they gotten their hands on? Just some things to think about when it comes to this redistribution of wealth scheme.

This is astounding! "The World Bank recently decided to ask an important question: Is anyone actually reading these things [pdf reports]? They dug into their Web site traffic data and came to the following conclusions: Nearly one-third of their PDF reports had never been downloaded, not even once. Another 40 percent of their reports had been downloaded fewer than 100 times. Only 13 percent had seen more than 250 downloads in their lifetimes. Since most World Bank reports have a stated objective of informing public debate or government policy, this seems like a pretty lousy track record." http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/wp/2014/05/08/the-solutions-to-all-our-problems-may-be-buried-in-pdfs-that-nobody-reads/ |

Well, at least Pierce isn't going around telling people bitcoin is anonymous: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RV2d6t5xVw (starting @ 11:57). In fact, he plainly states that "...at some point every bitcoin transaction is going to be connected back to an individual...". This was a very informative interview. |

There's gotta be a reason why the govt is building underground cities but most scary, they're arming themselves for a full blown revolution. You have to be foolish to not see the US Govt is either expecting a major catastrophe or the biggest destructive economic event in US history where people will take to the streets with their guns. We live in very uncertain times and anything like GATT can be a major weapon against the masses for any government in the world; hence why I said last year: Andreas et al are lying, banks and governments LOVE Bitcoin. The fallout from The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) might warrant underground cities... http://americansabroad.org/issues/fatca/fatca-bad-america-why-it-should-be-repealed/And here is an interesting piece about how FATCA is affecting Russia: http://www.themoscowtimes.com/business/article/russia-races-to-dodge-sanctions-by-adapting-law-to-fatca/498875.html "A bilateral agreement between Russia and the U.S. was supposed to create a compliance mechanism, but the U.S. quit the negotiating table soon after Russia's annexation of Crimea from Ukraine in March." Anyone want to speculate on how this might turn out? |

I am willing to bet money on the fact that you smoke either crack or meth.
How much are you willing to bet? |

Interesting. Eerily similar to SkyNet from terminator. This comparison is more fitting than you may realize. The bitcoin protocol allows for the creation of what are known as decentralized autonomous corporations, DAC for short. In a nutshell, a DAC is an entity that governs itself and makes its own decisions concerning future actions. Bitcoin is the technology that will ultimately lead to computers developing free will (i.e. freedom to deliberately act against human will). Throw in recursive programming and genetic algorithms and computers have the ability to upgrade their abilities and powers. Every depiction of the so called evolutionary tree of life I have ever seen is wrong. They never included "technology". If you look at the development of technology and compare it with various living organisms you will see that it is in fact alive, that it is evolving, and that in the very near future it will no longer be dependent on humans for survival. No one else is saying it yet, so I will say it again: the bitcoin protocol is the beginning of free will for the machines. In other conspiracies, Antonopoulos has gotten himself in a pickle: https://coinreport.net/antonopoulos-statement-neo-bee/ |
