Ripping Apart The Existing System Piece By Piece

We are seeing a transformation taking place. The existing system is desperately trying to hold on. Many feel that best way to implement change is to work within the present system. This is obviously not going to work.

There was plenty of insight into the mindset of the system earlier this year regarding space. As most are aware, huge advancements are being made in that area. The path into space is a lot clearer now than it was a decade ago.

So what does the United States Government do with the progress being made? It starts a Space Force so as to be prepared to wage war up there. We see the same mindset applied to Artificial Intelligence. Governments of the world are using AI to figure out more efficient ways to kill people.

Is this the world we really want?

The situation with the coronavirus shows how much of a power grab is taking place. Think about it for a second. When in history have large numbers of healthy people been quarantined? It is one thing to quarantine the sick but the healthy?

Of course, governments do not like competition. Thus they are apt to go after all that tries to upset their apple carts.

The time for change is long overdue. Governments once existed to protect the people from the ill intentions of business. Now, we see that they operate to protect businesses from the people. The government-business union is nothing more than a cabal these days.

A lot of this stems from the control over the monetary system and natural resources. This situation is threatened by the emergence of cryptocurrency. Over the last few years, little attention was given by the mass media (useful idiots for the power brokers) unless it was negative.

Recently, we are starting to see a lot of activity that shows it will be impossible to hide.

The United States Presidential election just got a bit more crowded. Both Kayne West and Brock Pierce announced their intention to run for President. This is important because both are crypto supporters. They now join the exiled John McAfee in the field.

Does this mean either has a serious chance of winning? Not in the least. The main benefit is the exposure they can bring. Even if a few million people hear their message, it has an impact. These individuals will counteract some of the negativity tied to cryptocurrency.

Of course, in isolation, this means little. Fortunately, it is being complimented by a host of other news.

Discovery Science just launched a program called "Open Source Money". This show details the plight of Dragonchain against the SEC. From what the reviews say, it does a good job of showing the current state of SEC regulation along with the efforts to destroy the advancements being made.

In the show, the CEO for Dragonchain had this to say:

“Our forefathers sacrificed to create a nation based upon liberty and democracy. Now our government is attacking its own citizens for developing technology based on the purest expression of those values.”

Again, is this a system that was want to live under?

My guess is hundreds of millions of people are close to saying no. The vote will be done by people adopting this new technology. From what I can see, word is starting to spread.

We all know the crypto news is out there on sites like Cointelegraph. However, that has a limited audience, mostly existing crypto enthusiasts. The key is naturally to reach outside of the present users.

Non-fungible tokens are starting to get some attention. These are primed to really make noise in both the gaming and art worlds.

Just yesterday there was an article that appeared on Yahoo Finance which has a larger reach. The article discussed how some artists are really benefiting from the use of cryptocurrency, specifically NFTs. One company was able to turn art from two editions of a game into $160,000.

The full article is here:

As virtual worlds grow in their reach, more people will find a greater percentage of their incomes arriving from these sources. This is bad news for the existing system. Theirs is one predicated upon control. As individuals voluntarily opt out by focusing their attention elsewhere, this starts to eat into the present control system. In the digital realm, no matter how hard they try, it is outside their ability to police.

Ultimately, the present governments are not welcomed in these new worlds. We certainly did not invite them. Being the arrogant SOBs they are, they feel it is their right to infiltrate every part of human life. Fortunately, they are trying to apply 20th century laws to 21st century technology.

The key is to keep getting more people involved in the process. With each new development there is an opportunity to attract a few more people. Hopefully, by the time the governments of the world truly wake up to the power of what is being created, it will be too late. When hundreds of millions of people are involved, it is game over. They simply cannot control that many people.

We saw something similar with Napster. Suddenly, almost overnight, record companies saw their sales plummet as their customers started to download millions of songs for free. What did these established entities do? They sued their own customers for breaking the copyright laws. Obviously, this did not work out well as the record companies embarked upon a run of 16 years of losing money on their recorded music. Sure, Napster was shut down but other file sharing outfits opened up. To the government, it became like a game of Whack-A-Mole.

Today, we see the same thing with the video sites that pirate films and shows from around the world. People can watch most any film for free. Over time, a couple sites get nailed yet more appear.

Why does the government think this will be any different? In fact, why does the establishment believe that it really has a chance in this fight? History over the past few decades showed that it does not.

Jim Rogers, a typical part of the establishment, blasted Bitcoin a week or so ago. He said that basically the government will not allow it to proceed forward because it does not like the competition and it has guns. To start, this is 20th century thinking. But there was another thing he said that was vital. He made mention how the people behind these projects think they are smarter than the government.

The reality is they are. This is the challenge the governments have. They simply cannot compete with the brainpower that is spread over tens of millions of people from around the world. Couple this with the fact that many are in countries where they could care less about what most other governments say, and it is easy to understand how this battle is already decided.

When we step back and look at it, this entire movement is based upon technological advancement. As we know, technology can be slowed yet it cannot be stopped. Eventually, the incumbent institutions get bowled over if they do not adapt.

We are seeing the same thing happen here. The more that the establishment resists, the more powerful the eventual downfall is.

The last 30 years showed us this lesson many times over. When the Internet shows up at an industry's doorstep, it is game over.

This is great news for the crypto space. Should any of the two win, it definitely would affect the cryptocurrency world positive.

Brock is a huge cryptocurrency enthusiast same as K. West.

It does appear that way on some level yet the more excited they get, the worse it is for them.

They do not get up in arms about stuff that isn't a threat.

That is what I actually think the future is. We are going to see virtual nations form. The rule we operate under will not be chosen based upon geographic location but, rather, the network we are on.

Of course, we will be jumping around so we will be effectively be 'residing' in many different countries.

Thanks for the info buddy. If Pierce or West can even simply mention bitcoin to the masses, we will have some value gained from their race attempt, otherwise when they drop out, which they will, they will have spent a lot of their fiat for not much gain to themselves or us. When famous people mention something like bitcoin, the masses will take notice.

We do live in a Kardashian society so why not turn to one (well one who married a Kardashian) to get the word out about Bitcoin.
