DECLARATION OF CURRENCY INDEPENDENCE
LIBERATE YOUR MONEY - FREE YOUR MIND

History may not repeat, but it certainly rhymes.

When in the Course of human events it becomes apparent that the bands
of control and power stem from a universally common source, the
necessity of separation from these powers become a matter of survival.

For as long as the printing press has existed, the whole of
civilization has quietly fallen under the influence of sovereign
entities with the ability to control the value of expended work
through the manipulation and control of currency. The 'sweat off the
brow' ceased to be represented by any discernible value, but rather
through an unseen, uncontrollable force of entities outside control of
the masses exchanging their representative currencies.

The expenditure of energy by man, machine, and Nature is the sole
source of Value. These sources and their result have been devalued
through the intentional inflation of printed currencies. Money and
currency as understood by the global population are no longer an
expression of the collective output of exertion, but rather an
arbitrary calculation of unaccountable individuals and organizations
that hold them in their influence. Humanity has fallen under the
domination of control through Fiat, but this domination has only
increased the pressure of humanity seeking a viable escape.

When entities acquire the power to artificially create Value with the
stroke of a pen, bribery and collusion become a trivial matter for
those with that power. Those with access to this power naturally
develop a bubble of judicial protection, accelerating disparity of
wealth. As a result, the Value of Work has been wholly degraded by
arbitrary calculations of political expediency. The integrity of Value
within all societies has been literally and figuratively forced to the
brink of irreconcilability.

This viable escape has come in the form of provable and irrefutable
math through the expenditure of energy -- Bitcoin and its derivative
cryptoassets.

Prior to the proliferation of cryptoassets, the option of the State
abdicating control over the supply of currency was never a viable
possibility due to threat of forgery, and the costs to secure the
integrity of the currencies. The State, and only the State, could
secure the integrity of a printed currency through the threat and
employment of Force. The maintenance of this integrity is a noble
cause and necessary to the stability of a state, because it ensured
the exchange of value could be trusted. However, the maintenance of
that integrity can, has, and is fundamentally manipulated.

Whilst the State still maintains a justifiable monopoly on the lawful
application of violent force, its monopoly on the control of currency
has been demonstrably displaced by the implementation of Bitcoin and
its cryptoasset derivatives.

Where value was once proven by the strength of the State "at the end
of a barrel", humans have developed, demonstrated, and proliferated a
technology capable of proving value through the expenditure of
electricity via the irrevocable proof of math. Such a concept has
never been accomplished prior to the initiation of the Bitcoin
blockchain.

As use of cryptocurrencies has spread and adoption rates have grown
throughout the world over the past decade, the paradigm of 'value' has
shifted in the minds of those who truly grasp the capabilities of this
new technology of 'value transfer'. Whereas the Internet changed how
humans viewed the transfer of information, cryptoassets are doing the
same with the transfer of value.

We are not declaring Independence from State Controlled Currency -- We
are declaring Controlled Currencies through fiat have been rendered
Obsolete.

Our reasons for declaring obsolescence are plentiful. Many deaths and
crimes of the previous Century can be traced to unaccountable entities
with control of currencies who have gained control of the many levers
of power in order to direct the course of Humanity.

Those who create our currencies have conspired to assume Total Control
of the global money supplies, while obfuscating through suppression of
media and education the fact that they are capable of conspiracy.

They embody the systemic risk with the hypocrisy of providing loans to
public banks that must provide transparent audits, while avoiding any
such audits themselves.

Their behavior has consistently tipped the scales of potentially Open
Markets in favor of providing newly printed currencies to those they
trust, as opposed to those the Free Markets trust.

They have ingratiated themselves through the selective support of
lawmakers and regulators whom enact policies that ensure their actions
are exposed to minimal risk and maximal gains by diverting
consequences on the populations which use their currencies.

They have degraded the public trust in elected representatives and the
equal application of justice by collectively avoiding any
accountability for creating systemic risks.

They have become Cause and Solution to financial crises, to which
there is no means of recourse for the rest of Humanity, which bears
this burden as a result of Their behaviors.

This Declaration of Currency Independence is a direct response to the
continued manipulation and destruction that stems from the deliberate
degradation of Value across the whole of humanity.

We, the undersigned, will dedicate our lives building networks and
systems that restore the Integrity of Value and directly challenge the
authority of those who seek to destroy Value.

Analysis of the Declaration

The purpose of this document is to accompany the release of the
Declaration of Currency Independence in order to ensure the intentions
and suggested actions are clear, whilst encompassing as wide of an
audience as possible. This accompanying narrative will endeavour to
refrain from conveying any form of bias or opinion, as its purpose is
merely to clarify and inform.

History may not repeat, but it certainly rhymes.

When in the Course of human events it becomes apparent that the bands
of control and power stem from a universally common source, the
necessity of separation from these powers become a matter of survival.

The declaration is highlighting that throughout historical events,
control has been assumed by a small number of entities to oppress the
masses. The argument is furthered by indicating that ‘separation’ from
this oppression is the key to survival. The declaration appears to use
the term ‘survival’ to cover two bases: survival of the oppressed
topic (or idea) and survival of the collective masses.

For as long as the printing press has existed, the whole of
civilization has quietly fallen under the influence of sovereign
entities with the ability to control the value of expended work
through the manipulation and control of currency. The 'sweat off the
brow' ceased to be represented by any discernible value, but rather
through an unseen, uncontrollable force of entities outside control of
the masses exchanging their representative currencies.

Here, the declaration is drawing a connection between the concepts of
how the value of ‘work’ is connected to ‘currency’. Essentially, the
declaration is indicating that a person works to be paid the
respective currency of their habitat or homeland; be it sterling,
dollar, yen or otherwise. The declaration indicates that the mass
media, or more specifically the printing press, is used as a tool by
‘sovereign entities’ (meaning organisations, groups or individuals
with unbelievable amounts of power) who control how work is valued
against the respective currency. As a result of the aforementioned,
the masses who use/employ the use of their relevant, centrally
controlled currencies, are essentially at the mercy of the value
placed on work by the ‘sovereign entities’, since they have no option
but to submit to the payment which has been deemed appropriate for
their ‘work’.

The expenditure of energy by man, machine, and Nature is the sole
source of Value. These sources and their result have been devalued
through the intentional inflation of printed currencies. Money and
currency as understood by the global population are no longer an
expression of the collective output of exertion, but rather an
arbitrary calculation of unaccountable individuals and organizations
that hold them in their influence. Humanity has fallen under the
domination of control through Fiat, but this domination has only
increased the pressure of humanity seeking a viable escape.

The declaration is demonstrating that true value is the use of energy,
irrespective of where that energy is sourced, and that the value of
printed currency (dollar/yen/sterling and so on) is purposefully
manipulated to be higher than the value of what that printed currency
is worth, in order to control the ‘true’ value of energy spent.
Furthermore, the declaration re-enforces that true value (energy
spent) has been distorted by those who control printed currencies. The
declaration argued that as a result of this, humanity (the masses) is
either knowingly or unknowingly searching for an alternative measure
of value transfer.

When entities acquire the power to artificially create Value with the
stroke of a pen, bribery and collusion become a trivial matter for
those with that power. Those with access to this power naturally
develop a bubble of judicial protection, accelerating disparity of
wealth. As a result, the Value of Work has been wholly degraded by
arbitrary calculations of political expediency. The integrity of Value
within all societies has been literally and figuratively forced to the
brink of irreconcilability.

Here the declaration indicates that the aforementioned ‘sovereign
entities’ are protected due to their position(s) of power and
influence over those who represent the masses’ way of life. As such,
deceptive and illegitimate actions become the norm for those who have
total control. In other words, those who control money control the
political narrative (or story) delivered to the masses (or average Joe
Bloggs). Once again, the declaration indicates due to this complete
control, what defines the idea of ‘value’, is at risk of ever being
adjusted to meet the needs of the masses: the rich get richer and the
poor get poorer.

This viable escape has come in the form of provable and irrefutable
math through the expenditure of energy -- Bitcoin and its derivative
cryptoassets.

At this stage the declaration highlights that we have now found a
viable escape from this control of wealth, power and value: Bitcoin
and other crytoassets.

Prior to the proliferation of cryptoassets, the option of the State
abdicating control over the supply of currency was never a viable
possibility due to threat of forgery, and the costs to secure the
integrity of the currencies. The State, and only the State, could
secure the integrity of a printed currency through the threat and
employment of Force. The maintenance of this integrity is a noble
cause and necessary to the stability of a state, because it ensured
the exchange of value could be trusted. However, the maintenance of
that integrity can, has, and is fundamentally manipulated.

The idea of Bitcoin and cryptoassets offering an alternative to the
currently oppressed and manipulated system(s) in place, is reinforced
by the argument that control over currency by the state (or respective
elected governments as it were) was never previously possible due to
issues with supplying printed currency and the risk of forgery. The
argument alludes to the idea that there is not enough printed currency
to supply the world the total value of the world’s supply of wealth,
therefore forgery would be too easily implemented by the ‘sovereign
entities’. The declaration indicates that the state (and respective
governments) ensure(s) that forgery of currency does not take place
holistically (totally) due to the threat of ‘Force’ (or punishment of
those who break laws surrounding forgery of printed currency). The
declaration indicates maintaining the integrity of currency (stopping
forgery) is a noble cause; however it is those who oversee the control
of this integrity who can themselves be manipulated.

Whilst the State still maintains a justifiable monopoly on the lawful
application of violent force, its monopoly on the control of currency
has been demonstrably displaced by the implementation of Bitcoin and
its cryptoasset derivatives.

The declaration acknowledges that whilst the aforementioned efforts to
maintain the integrity of printed currencies is noble, Bitcoin and
other cryptoassets ensure there is no need for the threat (or action)
of violent force to ensure this integrity.

Where value was once proven by the strength of the State "at the end
of a barrel", humans have developed, demonstrated, and proliferated a
technology capable of proving value through the expenditure of
electricity via the irrevocable proof of math. Such a concept has
never been accomplished prior to the initiation of the Bitcoin
blockchain.

The declaration indicates that blockchain technology is based on
unarguable (or 100% accurate) mathematics which cannot be manipulated.
Furthermore, we have never seen such an alternative to the existing
system(s) in place with controlled printed currency such as the likes
of the blockchain.

As use of cryptocurrencies has spread and adoption rates have grown
throughout the world over the past decade, the paradigm of 'value' has
shifted in the minds of those who truly grasp the capabilities of this
new technology of 'value transfer'. Whereas the Internet changed how
humans viewed the transfer of information, cryptoassets are doing the
same with the transfer of value.

The declaration hereby acknowledges that those who have connected the
dots between fundamentally manipulated methods of value transfer have
understood the significance of the dawn of the blockchain. This idea
is likened to the internet which changed everything concerning how
humans communicated the transfer of information. The blockchain is
being declared as a parallel solution to how humans will transfer the
value of currency.

We are not declaring Independence from State Controlled Currency -- We
are declaring Controlled Currencies through fiat have been rendered
Obsolete.

The declaration is indicating that the document is not primarily one
which is trying to displace the current system(s) of printed currency
under state (or government control); moreover it is highlighting that
Bitcoin and other cryptoassets have ensured printed currency is no
longer fit for purpose or necessary.

Our reasons for declaring obsolescence are plentiful. Many deaths and
crimes of the previous Century can be traced to unaccountable entities
with control of currencies who have gained control of the many levers
of power in order to direct the course of Humanity.

The argument is supported with reasons such as deaths caused by foul
play and other crimes which can be traced back to ‘entities’ (or
organisations) with no face or name. These acts are argued to be
responsible for controlling how humanity develops, progressed or
regresses (dependant on your personal perspective) throughout time.

Those who create our currencies have conspired to assume Total Control
of the global money supplies, while obfuscating through suppression of
media and education the fact that they are capable of conspiracy.

The declaration highlights that social systems (education, the media
and money) are fundamentally manipulated to ensure that any ideas of
ongoing conspiracy (which may have otherwise surfaced), as outlined
within the declaration, are suppressed.

They embody the systemic risk with the hypocrisy of providing loans to
public banks that must provide transparent audits, while avoiding any
such audits themselves.

The entities as previously described are outlined to be financing the
banks through ‘loaning’ money. It is highlighted that the bank are
audited (scrutinised to ensure integrity and honesty), whilst they
avoid any auditing themselves. This is highlighted as hypocrisy.

Their behavior has consistently tipped the scales of potentially Open
Markets in favor of providing newly printed currencies to those they
trust, as opposed to those the Free Markets trust.

The declaration indicates those who provide the financing, choose to
support organisations of which they will have control over, as opposed
to financing honest, open and or transparent ‘Free Markets’ (a system
based on supply and demand with no government control).

They have ingratiated themselves through the selective support of
lawmakers and regulators whom enact policies that ensure their actions
are exposed to minimal risk and maximal gains by diverting
consequences on the populations which use their currencies.

The entities’ placement of their financing ensures they are well
connected with ‘lawmakers’ (politicians or a constitution) to protect
their wealth and control; whilst placing the financial risk(s) upon
the masses who use the currencies of the organisations which they are
financing.

They have degraded the public trust in elected representatives and the
equal application of justice by collectively avoiding any
accountability for creating systemic risks.

It is then highlighted, that as a result of the aforementioned, this
has led to distrust amongst the masses towards ‘elected
representatives’ (governments and politicians) whilst the entities
themselves ensure their own protection from such animosity and
negative publicity.

They have become Cause and Solution to financial crises, to which
there is no means of recourse for the rest of Humanity, which bears
this burden as a result of Their behaviors.

The declaration indicates the entities are positioning themselves as
both the cause (reason) and solution to financial crises, yet it is
the masses that are responsible for ensuring these manipulated systems
do not collapse as they use the printed currencies which they
inadvertently supply.

This Declaration of Currency Independence is a direct response to the
continued manipulation and destruction that stems from the deliberate
degradation of Value across the whole of humanity.

The declaration summarises that this document itself is a response to
the continued manipulation and destruction of value across humanity.

We, the undersigned, will dedicate our lives building networks and
systems that restore the Integrity of Value and directly challenge the
authority of those who seek to destroy Value.

A Message From The Authors

This Declaration is an intellectual and ideological call to arms. It
was written with the recognition that the newer possibilities that
made the Bitcoin blockchain so powerfully intriguing were being
strategically obscured by the older systems. These old systems are
maintained to keep the vast masses of humanity intellectually enslaved
to measuring value according to rules they can not see, understand, or
even acknowledge.

The purpose of this document is first and foremost for those who CAN
see these methods of enslavement... those who DO understand the true
power of total currency control... those who CLEARLY acknowledge that
continuing this system is, by definition, an injustice.

There is a far more dangerous Enemy that has been subtly and overtly
injecting their influence into this Battle over the future of how
humanity views the value of their time and energy. The argument over
“What is the best cryptocurrency?” has slowly but surely obscured the
more important question: "What is the best currency?" The great hope
for this Declaration is that all who read it recognize and remember
that the true ideological Enemy of Currency Independence require
domination over ALL currencies, fiat and crypto alike. Ignoring that
reality will only slow adoption.

With this Declaration of Currency Independence, those who have
awakened to the stark contrasts that exist between the Future Promise
of this technology and the Current Control mechanisms in place will
have a common language in which they can rally around. Use this
Declaration as a rallying cry for those of us who see this battle
unfolding. Use it as a tool for letting the world know how the game is
played and how control over the measure of Value touches every part of
life.

The time has come for Money to be separated from State, and for the
first time, the tools are available.
