SO MUCH FOR CRYPTO-CURRENCY FREEDOM, IT’S TIME FOR CASH
Last Wednesday I blogged about the connection between central bank digital currencies and so-called "free energy" and the suspicious and hardly coincidental murders and deaths that accompany inventors who make 'free energy" claims or develop such devices. But before one reaches that level, there is the whole issue of freedom and privacy associated with any digital "currency," and the danger is one that Catherine Austin Fitts and many others have repeatedly pointed out: such "currencies" are not currencies at all, but rather, corporate coupons and mechanisms for control. Do you remember the Bank of England's reasons for not returning Venezuela's gold? Their reasons basically boiled down to "we don't like you or your socialist regime." Well, I don't like socialism either, but theft is theft, whether you steal from a socialist or not.
So in line with that observation, consider this story shared by Ms. Fitts:
Binance under scrutiny for seizing Palestinian crypto funds
Now notice, and notice carefully and closely, what is being said:
Binance denied reports suggesting that the crypto exchange seized funds from all Palestinians, stating that only a small number of accounts were restricted.
That one sentence says it all, and should be pondered long and carefully, for it means that crypto-currency accounts can be individually targeted and access to the funds in them denied. This, in itself, is an interesting admission especially if one compares it to the hype we were subjected to years ago when Bitcoin and Satoshi What's-his-name first appeared, for we were all assured that this, at least, was the way around and out from under central banksters' controls and money monopolies. We were assured that the entire system was completely safe and completely private. No we discover that our fears of crypto-currencies being nothing but corporate coupons - especially in the hands of governments - are true.
But we're also being told that certain Palestinian accounts were targeted, and not only that, but targeted by specific desire of the Israeli Self-Defense Force:
Ray Youssef, co-founder of the peer-to-peer (P2P) crypto platform Paxful and CEO at the Noones P2P platform, took to X on Aug. 26 to report that Binance had confiscated funds from Palestinians at the request of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).
“Binance has seized all funds from all Palestinians as per the request of the IDF. They refuse to return the funds. All appeals denied,” Youssef wrote, citing several sources, including a letter from Israeli authorities.
He argued that the measure affected all Palestinians, predicting that other countries like Lebanon and Syria were likely to come next.
“All Palestinians are affected and judging by the way things are going all Lebanese and Syrians will get the same treatment. Not your keys, not your coins,” Youssef stated.
So which is it? Just some Palestinians? Or all of them? The article is - tellingly - self-contradictory. Now do not get me wrong: I do not have a horse in this race: I believe absolutely in Israel's right to exist; and I believe absolutely in the Palestinians' right to exist; and deplore and abhor the kind of attacks we've seen both against Israelis and Palestinians. But notice something about the article and what the "policy" amounts to: "We don't like you, therefore, we declare you a terrorist and seize your funds, without due process." There's no denying that Hamas is a terrorist organization. But recently the government of the USSA placed former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard on the terrorism watchlist. Tulsi Gabbard.... Tulsi Gabbard? A terrorist? When will her crypto-currency assets be frozen and seized without due process? Or for that matter, Robert F. Kennedy Jr's, after all, he has condemned his own political party and endorsed the opposition leader, and committed the ultimate "act of terrorism" in questioning the whole quackcine planscamdemic agenda.
We know where this all leads; it leads to slavery, and ultimately, to death camps. We will lose what remains of our quickly fraying freedoms if we do not use cash, everywhere and as often as possible. Crypto-currency of any form is not an investment; it's a trap.
See you on the flip side...

There is a fundamental difference between actual decentraized cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Monero, etc.) and the crypto tokens created by companies. The latter are indeed like coupons under total control of the company issuing them. Decentralized cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Monero are not issued or controlled by any company and cannot be confiscated if you keep them in your private wallet.
Binance is a company, and if you place your crypto with them, then they can block or confiscate it. There are however an increasing number of decentralized exchanges that may become an alternative to centralized exchanges like Binance, especially if they keep confiscating funds, etc.
I don’t have a problem with crypto currency, it is probably here to stay.
However if you let them TAKE AWAY YOUR CASH… well, that’s the end
Guys, this entire issue is going over Dr. Farrell’s head – ‘crypto’ and Bitcoin are not the same. And crypto and/or Bitcoin on-an-exchange are not the same as crypto and/or Bitcoin off-an-exchange stored in your own cold hardware wallet. If you pull BTC off an exchange (where you purchase it) and store it in a cold wallet, it is basically impossible for it to be confiscated. The government or three-letter agency doing the confiscating would have to get your seed phrases. That is the only way. Conversely, if you’re uneducated and “store” your BTC on an exchange you do not technically own it. The exchange simply has an IOU with you, which means if the exchange goes belly-up or if you are labeled a dissident, the Gov or the exchange will certainly take your BTC, or crypto sh*tcoins. Catherine Austin Fitts is great, but she is another high level analyst and intellectual who is totally lost in understanding BTC (the irony being she is actually a Bitcoiner; she just doesn’t understand it). In a world devolving into a kind of technocratic barbarism, where you-know-who literally owns the money, cash will no longer cut it. It’s a long-gone reality…
Exactly, even CBDCs cannot become the totalitarian tools they are meant to be if cash survives (and without significant limitations, eg. “no cash purchases over $1000”).
Well, I think certain members of the Ursidae family might have reason to believe that RFK(not even): Jr. could be seen as a creepy terrorist.
And, moreso, gee, why isn’t anyone talking about the gas reserves 20 miles off the Gaza Strip owned by the PA that be a rationale for their imminent extermination.

“People” have been talking about those gas reserves for a while
It is fascinating that BlackRock has pushed in heavy to Bitcoin.

Remember the Great Northeast Blackout of 1965? About 25 million people in New York, New England and portions of Pennsylvania and New Jersey lost electricity for an entire day. What has me thinking about a ‘what-if’ scenario is this sentence from the Blog, “… what the “policy” amounts to: “We don’t like you, therefore, we declare you a terrorist and seize your funds, without due process.”
Therefore it could someday playout like this, “We don’t like the way voters in certain states voted, so we’re ‘pulling the plug’ on their Bitcoin accounts.”
welcome to the world of british totalitarianism, where everybody who goes against the crown is a “terrorist”.
nothing new about it and the US is ate up with it
Country Simple if you can’t see it, feel it, or hear jiggling in your pocket it’s not real. And it’s not controlled by you then it’s garbage.
I’ve suspected, from the very beginning; that the “internet’s architecture, has several layers of hidden access. The military is famous for dual use; however, here there may be numerous branches, of which the internet – as we know it – is, but one. There is something fundamental, that is being left unturned. Thus, when someone is convince of total secrecy – they’re right – if they’re talking about the one branch. But below that branch; are more connections, with potential access.
A secret, that one would not let loose; as it is fundamental to your own “intelligence” gathering.
Much like the secret Space Programs.
In these and other such deep secrets -there is a future, that is at stake.
It would be like protecting…,
Time travel.
Yet, like today’s blog implies – there are somethings rotten in Crypto Currencies.
What is going on, are the communist are being what they’ve always been.
Communist.
There’s a well-known history here,
that is known to rhyme with the most horrendous regimes known to man.
Where the government is not made of Law, but of men – who are a law unto themselves. .
Currency, is but one factor; that is not under any cover, nor protection of law.
Currency ruled; by the whims, of those in control.
It’s unconstitutional to label someone a potential terrorist in the US because you are presumed innocent until proven guilty but the slimy government lawyers and judges do it anyways through the vague Patriot Act which lists just about everyone as potential terrorists one way or another. And concerning the potential theft of all Palestinian crypto currency there is a good chance this is indeed theft and will be permanent. I read in the Jerusalem Post yesterday that the IDF is looting the Palestinians of their valuables and justifying it as spoils of war. Some of the Rabbi quoted verses in the Torah about not looting because it undermines their claim that they are waging a righteous war for only righteous reasons. I got the impression WWII Nazi style looting of valuables is wide spread in Gaza at the moment. It’s illegal under International Law and most Western Governments do not let their soldiers get away with it but Israel doesn’t seem to care about International norms and neither does Hamas. Taking Civilian hostages is wrong but what can you do in the lawless anything goes Middle East. No wonder there will never be peace in the region. Peace is a by product of mutually agreeing to and enforcing just, fair and reasonable laws. There are a lot of good people in Palestine and Israel. Good Jews, good Islamist, and good Christians, but there are also dangerous radical ideologies among all groups as well. Since these three very powerful world religions weld a lot of financial and political power everybody would be wise to study and get to know all the different factions of these three influential power house religions. You should particularly study the radical, dangerous interpretations and ideologies all three religions have hiding among their numbers for they have a lot more organized power in the world than you may realize. Small determined groups of people who can’t be swayed, never give up, and go all out to achieve their goals almost always win eventually when up against shallow, weak willed adversaries who stand for nothing except lining their pockets and full filling all their lustful vices.
the Patriot Act does not “list people as terrorists.”
what it does is simply negate your Bill of Rights
the government, for whatever reason, designates you as a terrorist – it could be as simple as erroneously identifying you through some process – and as a “designated terrorist” (whether proven or not) you can be seized, imprisoned with recourse to a lawyer or contact with your family, (“disappeared”), tortured or executed.
IOW, as long as the Patriot Act is in effect, you live in a tyrannical environment with 0 human or civil rights.
Period
thanks, George Bush, Dick Cheney, CONGRESS and all the Neocons along with our faithful friends and “allies,” the brits
Binance is a company, that offers a service – a centralized crypto exchange. Emphasis on centralized. Holding you cash in your wallet is different than having an account at Schwab with money in it. About the same difference. “not your key, not your coins” has been the standard trope for a long time in the libertarian end of ‘bitcoin solves that.’
Crypto at the end of the day IS digital, track-able (hell ain’t that the point even, blockchain tech?), is probably started by/for one agency or another for control purposes. BUT, a company with customers who keep “money/tokens/trust” with them will always be a easily swayed point of control for any given dis-liked customer, that’s kinda a given.
