Basic math on an upheld promise of cryptocurrency says there's plenty of % gain to be had over the future. Some will concur and stake a position, some won't.

Nikola Tesla: Futurist
by John 01 Dec '17

01 Dec '17

If you are not familiar with Tesla's theories in his later years, he explored fantastic topics like free energy, anti-gravity, invisibility, and time travel. After Nikola Tesla's death, the FBI ordered the Alien Property Custodian to seize Tesla's belongings, even though Tesla was an American citizen. The National Defense Research Committee called in an MIT professor and well known electrical engineer to make sense of Tesla's notes in order to analyze if anything in them could be weaponized. That MIT professor was John G. Trump. John Trump claimed that there was nothing of any real substance in Tesla's notes - but this was a lie. He knew that if the National Defense Research Committee realized what the notes contained, such as blue prints for a time machine, it could mean the end of the world. Although John Trump believed Tesla's time machine was plausible, it was not possible to create using the technology existing at the time. John Trump later died in 1985 but not before entrusting Tesla's notes and their implications to the protection of his beloved nephew, Donald J. Trump. Around this same time period, Donald Trump was known to use pseudonyms such as John Miller and John Barron, in partial homage to his uncle. However, there was another pseudonym he was to be known for, John Titor. Trump, as John Titor, traveled to the future under the assumed identity of a soldier, where he discovered that America, and the entire world, had become a nuclear dystopia caused by radical Islamic terror. John Titor began posting messages on several internet forums in 2000 and 2001, writing of events that happened in the timeline he had witnessed. He wrote of terrible events that would occur between 2000 and 2012. He could not name the cause at the time or the timeline may become unavoidable, see 'Death Ship' episode from 'The Twilight Zone' television series. Trump traveled through time, amassing a fortune and making subtle changes, attempting to delay the future he saw for as long as he could - but that future is now coming. Trump knew that the only way he could have enough influence to prevent this future in it's entirety would be to become President of the United States of America.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEPfzQQB3oU infohash:8A27FE7F05FBFBF76501E7E60AB56CDCD54035ED How Bitcoin is changing the world as we know it. Exploring the revolutionary Bitcoin digital currency. It doesn't need banks or to be printed. It can be transferred in a second to anywhere in the world. With global financial instability in the headlines daily, more and more people are taking their money away from the banks. Is Bitcoin the only way forward? Magic Money paints a future where control of our money is taken away from global institutions and given back to us. With “money at the core of our existence”, comes an examination into a product easier to use and more revolutionary than email. A product hailed by Bitcoin entrepreneur Roger Ver as the "the most revolutionary technology you’ll see in your lifetime." From the birth of its unidentified creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, to bitcoin's unprecedented potential today to transcend any restriction through a unique push system, a fascinating tale of bold creativity emerges. As VP’s of some of the world’s largest financial industries, entrepreneurs, and monetary scientists attempt to deconstruct the nature of bit coin, to what extent will members of the public change their financial agenda to a bank-less system that appears so lucrative on the surface? Will people trust such an entity that is not tangible in any form? And how can a something so simple have a nation asking, "I still don’t understand bitcoin"? Magic Money presents a financial game changer comprised of a public ledger unlike any other monetary system. With enormous growth in nations like Iran and China, where money can be restricted in transferring, Magic Money’s monetary scientist Trace Mayer indicates that "Bitcoin is definitely the largest innovation in monetary science since Isaac Newtons Gold Standard."
