Federal Reserve President Hoenig admits fiat currency is faith based mass delusion. Any search will pull up many big GovBankers all saying the same thing. Nobody listens, not even last 13 years, whole world still in dark about the Fiat scam, and what to do about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=psSYiidw-v0 https://v.redd.it/9z9yuq2w1zh81 https://bitcoinmagazine.com/culture/the-hidden-costs-of-the-petrodollar https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/-/media/boe/files/quarterly-bulletin/2014/m… https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/knowledgebank/how-is-money-created https://www.bundesbank.de/resource/blob/654284/df66c4444d065a7f519e2ab0c476… https://fedguy.com/two-tiered-monetary-system/ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jon-talks-to-thomas-hoenig-our-econom… "With inflation at 7.5%, you lose half your money in 9 years." “It is well enough that people of the nation do not understand our banking and monetary system, for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution before tomorrow morning.” - Henry Ford "Any revolution is first ridiculous, then dangerous, then obvious.

Cryptocurrency: Trucker Convoys Now Supported Via Crypto

Evolution: GoFundMe --> GiveSendGo --> BTC via TallyCoin After Enabling Violent, Far-Left Extremists; GoFundMe 'Steals' Millions From Freedom Convoy Fundraisers https://tallyco.in/ https://www.givesendgo.com/FreedomConvoy2022 Just as we anticipated, it looks like a crypto-based crowd-funding platform Tallycoin has helped supporters of the Canadian truckers re-route their donations to help support the people on the front lines of the protest. In the day that has passed since GoFundMe announced its plans to quash a fundraising effort for the truckers, more than $700,000 has been raised to benefit the truckers on Tallycoin. Last night, GoFundMe announced that it would be seizing all the money donated to the cause, and that donors would only see their donations refunded if they specifically requested that the money be returned. Otherwise, it would be forwarded to another cause of GoFundMe's choice. Well, this didn't go over too well with the donors, who many of whom threw a fit online. Now, in what could become a major threat to GoFundMe, anybody interested in the new platform can donate as little as a single Satoshi (presently, about 2,400 satoshis make up $1), and the fundraiser has a target of 500,000,000. The fundraiser on Tallycoin has the following message affixed to it: "The Canadian Bitcoin community would like to have a second financial access point for #FreedomConvoy2022. Legacy financial infrastructure can sometimes be politicized and clamped down upon, whereas Bitcoin is a truly censorship resistant method of communicating value. Don't allow your voices to be silenced, and don't allow your financial sovereignty to be trampled upon. Love, unity and freedom - let's raise some hard money for hard workers!"

[notes][spam] pursuing dgit/gitopia
by Undiscussed Horrific Abuse, One Victim of Many 16 Feb '22

It looks like https://gitopia.com/ , which is starting their own global code repository blockchain based on some mainstream blockchain library, started based off arweave, a permastorage chain that is still alive and well-reputed. The new blockchain is still testnet, but arweave is mainnet. The web interface is still usable at https://d7ehv42hkcybtz3diemrodxwhpsm6gxdtn2ozui6sxtqakc44kja.arweave.net/H8… Note: they are big nodejs fans. Everything is typescript and javascript. So this project has that property in pair with secure scuttlebutt, which also provides a decentralised code repository system. Here is my draft of how one could get set up using immutable code storage. I'm using ardrive-cli because I am interested in storing other files from the command line too, rather than just git repositories. # install stuff sudo npm install -g ardrive-cli # ardrive command sudo npm install -g typescript sudo npm install -g @thetechtrap/dgit # dgit command # generate wallet export ARWEAVE_WALLET_PATH=$HOME/.arweave_wallet.json ardrive generate-wallet "$(ardrive generate-seedphrase | tr -d '"')" > "$ARWEAVE_WALLET_PATH" # remove cruft from wallet file if present, otherwise it breaks stuff # https://github.com/ardriveapp/ardrive-cli/issues/248 sed -i "$ARWEAVE_WALLET_PATH" 's/^{"jwk"://; s/}}$/}/;' # i think dgit is now like the poor man's git, and can clone stuff using dgit:// urls or somesuch

Cryptocurrency: Biden Tries Appointing Another Corrupt Fed Sarah Bloom Raskin
by grarpamp 16 Feb '22

16 Feb '22

Recall Biden's utterly failed corrupt attempt at appointing agent Saule Omarova... now another in Biden's Democrat string of corruption... Senate Republicans Move To Delay Vote On Biden's Fed Vice-Chair Nominee Following the confirmed reports that President Biden's Fed Vice-Chair nominee helped an obscure fintech firm obtain an "unusual" degree of access to the Fed's payment system, successfully lobbying the Kansas City Fed in 2018, Republicans are moving to delay the vote on Sarah Bloom Raskin, saying they "need answers". After initially denying Reserve Trust's request for a master account, the Kansas City Fed approved the company's second request for an account in 2018 after Raskin called and lobbied for them with Quarles. Bloom Raskin has been facetious about her work for Reserve Trust: Sen. Cynthia Lummis asked Raskin several times whether she had lobbied on behalf of Reserve Trust, but Raskin repeatedly refused to answer that question during her public confirmation hearing. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell said Tuesday he opposed putting Raskin in a job “with major unilateral power” and urged Biden to find a “better, more mainstream” nominee. McConnell said Raskin has argued openly that unelected Fed governors can declare an ideological war against fossil fuels. “Fed governors are supposed to be neutral regulators,” he said on the Senate floor. Senator Pat Toomey's office released the following statement on not proceeding with the Senate Banking Committee's vote in opposition to Sarah Bloom Raskin. “Last week, I told Chairman Brown that Republican Committee members would agree to proceed with a markup on all outstanding nominations except that of Sarah Bloom Raskin. Today, Chairman Brown may choose not to allow votes on the five nominees pending before the committee and for whom he could have advanced the process. “Ms. Raskin’s repeated and forceful advocacy for having the Federal Reserve allocate capital and choke off credit to disfavored industries is alone disqualifying and reason enough to vote against her. "But whether to proceed with a vote today is a separate question. “Important questions about Ms. Raskin's use of the ‘revolving door' remain unanswered largely because of her repeated disingenuousness with the Committee, from her sloppy questionnaire, to an evasive conversation with Committee staff, to her refusal to answer questions from Senator Lummis at her nomination hearing, and her non-answers in written follow-up questions to the hearing. "On 36 questions for the record, for example, Ms. Raskin claimed she either did ‘not recall' or was ‘unaware'. Her repeated forgetfulness defies credulity. “All senators—not just Banking Republicans—deserve straightforward and honest answers from Ms. Raskin before having to cast a vote on her nomination. Her fitness to serve, her judgment, and her probity are of utmost importance because Ms. Raskin is being considered for a 10-year term at the nation's independent central bank and foremost financial regulator. This isn't a garden-variety political appointment. “Committee Republicans aren't seeking to delay her vote. We're seeking answers. Until basic questions have been adequately addressed, I do not think the Committee should proceed with a vote on Ms. Raskin." Denying a quorum also would delay confirmation votes on Biden’s other nominees, including Jerome Powell for another term as chair, Lael Brainard as vice chair and Philip Jefferson and Lisa Cook as Fed governors, but Bloomberg reports that, according to two people familiar with the discussions, Republicans hope Democrats will agree to set aside Raskin’s confirmation vote and move forward with the other nominees for now. Biden Fed Vice Chair Nominee Successfully Lobbied For Former Employer Sen. Pat Toomey has accused Sara Bloom Raskin, President Biden's nominee to replace Randall Quarles as the Fed's Vice Chair for Supervision, of helping an obscure fintech firm obtain an "unusual" degree of access to the Fed's payment system. Now, CNBC has corroborated Toomey's suspicions by confirming that Raskin did indeed lobby Kansas City Fed President Esther George in 2017. Raskin placed the call to George with the intent to lobby for her employer, a small fintech firm called Reserve Trust, to receive a Fed "master account". The lobbying occurred during 2017, when Raskin had left her role as the Treasury Department's deputy secretary. Prior to her Treasury work, she spent more than three years at the Fed as one of its governors. [IMG] After initially denying RT's request for a master account, the Kansas City Fed approved the company's second request for an account in 2018 after Raskin called and lobbied for them with Quarles. Earlier this week during Raskin's confirmation hearing before the Senate, Toomey blased Raskin with questions about her relationship with Reserve Trust. Specifically, Toomey asked Raskin to turn over documents and to answer a series of detailed questions regarding her work for Reserve Trust, including what actions she took to help it obtain a Fed master account and any communications between Raskin and the Kansas City Fed or the Fed regarding Reserve Trust’s application. In a letter sent to the Kansas City Fed, Toomey claimed that George had told him about the call that Raskin had made in 2017. "On the evening of February 2, 2022, you and your staff spoke with my staff," Toomey told George in his letter. "On that you call, you revealed that Ms. Raskin had, in fact, personally called you about Reserve Trust’s master account application after it had been denied." The letter from Toomey, the ranking member on the Senate Banking Committee, came more than a week after Raskin was grilled by Senate Republicans during her confirmation hearing to become the next Fed vice chair for supervision, replacing Randal Quarles. Bloom Raskin has been facetious about her work for Reserve Trust: Sen. Cynthia Lummis asked Raskin several times whether she had lobbied on behalf of Reserve Trust, but Raskin repeatedly refused to answer that question during her public confirmation hearing. Later, She suggested to Toomey that she didn't recall making any outreach on behalf of Reserve Trust to help it secure approval. Raskin received equity in Reserve Trust when she joined its board, but sold her financial stake upon her 2019 departure from the company for about $1.5 million. To this day, Reserve Trust’s master account remains the company’s single greatest asset to potential customers, and potential acquirers. The company brags about this access on its website in a prominent spot. "Reserve Trust is the first fintech trust company with a Federal Reserve master account," reads the homepage for ReserveTrust.com. "We provide payments services that financial institutions and fintechs have previously only been able to obtain from correspondent and sponsor banks." The White House has doubled down on its support for Raskin while insisting that she has been ethically beyond reproach. "Sarah Bloom Raskin has always taken her ethical obligations very seriously during and after her public service," the White House told CNBC on Feb. 3. But at the time Raskin called the Kansas City Fed to lobby for her new employer, she was a freshly retired top government official. There were no suggestions that Raskin's actions were illegal - but rather an example of the "revolving door" between corporate interests and politics. On Wednesday, Raskin and two other people nominated by Biden to Fed governor posts - Lisa Cook and Philip Jefferson - promised "not to seek any employment or compensation" from a financial services company after they leave the Federal Reserve.
