What you need to know about the Panama Papers

[Rizla2345]

We haven´t really seen anything yet. There´s millions of emails and other documents. It´s very likely that some of that is about outright criminal activity, bribes, tax evasion, drug trafficking et cetera. Wikileaks will most likely put that up in a searchable form. Then some very big bombs will go off.

Meanwhile Canada wants to purchase the damn document to skim through. That would be so typical paying millions for something people can see for free. This is going to turn into a bloody gong show,can just feel it coming hard.

I guess this has to turn attention on Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Maybe these convulsions are the start of the death of fiat money. Time will tell. When every transaction can be traced on the blockchain it´ll probably lead to a much more open, fair and honest system.

There is a short story on the death of fiat in this months forbes and it touches on why its not the best idea to let government restrict big bills due to making it easier for terrorists and drug dealers to move money. Then it goes on to talk about crypto and how government would then be able to dictate where and when we spend it. Was kind of shocked to read this in Forbes as it was mostly talking about the state of billionaires around the world.

Think we need a balanced approach and not all cryptocurrency or we do face the risk of all out control over our spending.

Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let's go out to the field." And while they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.

Humans used to betray other humans way before fiat money or bitcoin was invented. The human code needs an upgrade.

And that check will be sent to....?

[Slowturtleinc]

Thats a good question believe these files where leaked to a German newspaper if I read correctly,so wonder how much control they have over who gets to read it after that.

Wikileaks has a poll on Twitter today about whether they should put it on the net in their usual searchable format or let the media cherry pick from it what they want.

Clinton campaign chief linked to Russian bank listed in Panama Papers

The head of Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign is linked to a Russian bank involved with an emerging international scandal, according to documents reported on Tuesday.


Registration forms indicate that the Podesta Group signed up to lobby for the Sberbank of Russia in Washington about a month ago, in early March. The bank has been implicated in a scheme unearthed on Sunday in which leaders worldwide illegally stashed their assets overseas.

The Podesta Group was founded by John Podesta, the chairman of Clinton's 2016 campaign for president and a chief of staff to former president Bill Clinton. His brother, Anthony Podesta, is listed as a lobbyist for the account on the March filing.

The form, which was first discovered by the Washington Free Beacon, also lists three affiliated companies. Those include the Luxembourg-based SB International, Cyprus-based SBGB and Troika Dialogue Group, located in the Cayman Islands.

The Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project, the collection of journalists responsible for initially reporting on the papers, have indicated that Troika Dialogue and Sberbank are tied to Russian President Vladimir Putin and his associates. Troika reportedly signed away assets to another company, Avto Holdings, owned by Sergei Roldugin, a godfather to Putin's daughter.

The Panama Papers, comprised of 11.5 million pages leaked from Panamanian law firm Mossack Fonseca, were first revealed on Sunday.

Royal Bank of Canada defends itself from being linked to 370 foreign corporations.

"As a CEO, I have to be concerned about our brand and reputation, particularly in a situation where there's absolutely no allegation of wrongdoing," McKay said.

"We just happen to have a couple hundred files, going back 40 years, that are attached to this legal firm," he said. "That's all that's been reported."

"You can imagine how difficult it is to go back in your files 40 years," McKay said.

These banks are acting like they are being treated unfairly! They really are out of touch with the world in a humanity and moral sense.

A YouGov survey found just 18% of the public thought he had been open and honest about his tax affairs, while 56% did not.

There´s tons of dirt yet to come out of those Panama Papers. Got to be some very inconvenient stuff in millions of emails. Once it´s up on the net with a search engine, heads will start rolling in business and politics and here and there.

US think tank: Putin leaked 'Panama Papers' as part of ingenious plan to smear himself, blackmail western leaders

The Brookings Institution says that Putin is behind 'Panama Papers' leak. Sure, why not? We have to tip our proverbial shapka-ushanka to the Brookings Institution, the only American think tank brave enough to admit that Vladimir Putin is not connected in any way to the financial shenanigans documented in the "Panama Papers": Despite the headlines, there is no evidence of Putin's direct involvement—not in any company involved in the leak, much less in criminal activity, theft, tax evasion, or money laundering. There are documents showing that some of his "friends" have moved "up to two billion dollars" through these Panama-based shell companies.
