For years we discussed whether central banks would start to buy bitcoin one day ..

With El Salvador being the first country to add bitcoin to national reserves I must agree Boris was right 👍

A new era has started..
The implications are enormous. So are the risks involved for the current monetary system. That’s why El Salvador might be punished by the IMF ..

reuters.com/business/finan…
The IMF/US understands only one (system) can win as a highly positioned official said recently ..

When Bitcoin will attract more and more countries/central banks, the risks of hyperinflation and hyper-bitcoinization will increase a lot …

Be very careful what you wish for ..

Thread

Very few understand the US 'repo-market' and how it is used to support U$ treasuries.

This Bloomberg article - 'Can the Fed Fix the Treasury Market by Tweaking Repo?' - is the best I have come across so far, let me quote:

(please add comments to help people understand)
washingtonpost.com/enterprise/can…

..bouts of Treasuries turmoil have been happening more frequently and at times triggering large-scale interventions from the U.S. Federal Reserve. Pandemic-sparked volatility in March 2020 caused liquidity in the world’s biggest bond market to plunge
.. pushing the Fed to pour in more than $100 billion a day through debt purchases. More than a year later, the Fed announced the creation of what’s known as a standing repo facility, a step meant to head off future turmoil.

Thread/Thoughts on gold/silver:

- We all know we need a big/Great Reset

- A gold Revaluation should be part of it

- This will end decades of manipulation (paper selling)

- Just like the end of the London Gold Pool (physical selling) in the 1960’s

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Go…
- The London Gold Pool manipulation was needed to keep the gold price fixed at $35 per ounce, to support the dollar (Bretton Woods 1944 deal)

- Because of the Vietnam war the US needed to print too many dollars

- Many European countries asked the US to exchange dollars for gold
- The US had promised (BW 1944) the ‘gold window’ would always stay open

- After the US lost half of its gold (was 2200t) President Nixon decided to close this ‘gold window

'We are at an historic moment in time when earth’s climate is about to change in dramatic and unthinkable ways. We are seeing a rare symmetry and synchronicity of natural weather cycles all pointing in the same phase and direction for the first time since the early 1600’s'
.. that preceded the worst weather century for the earth in over 1000 year’s called the Maunder Grande Solar Cycle Minimum'
'There are some differences but there are many
similarities. Please read on to delve further into these cycles and the implications to global food production and prices..

Communism died a few years ago ..

Capitalism (the real one, with free markets and stuff😄) is dying as well

The Reset will be promoted as a, science based, new form of (World) government.

Spin: Better for all to save the world/climate

WEF/UN/IMF and corporates will merge..
This Corona crisis, the ‘window of opportunity’, as Klaus Schwab likes to say, is ‘closing fast’ (his words)
Make All dependable on gov support, while killing the SME/middle class, seems to be part of the play ..
