Electronic money will be their way of tracking everything you do and pressing a button and ending you. Doesn't matter why, maybe they don't like your hair.
Today I can pay you $10 and they wouldn't know, because I used cash.
Tomorrow, they would know you got $10. They would know where it came from (me). They would know where I got it. They would know what you would do with it, and so on. Speak out against the government? Sorry, your credit card isn't authorized purchase gas. Sorry, you cannot buy food. Sorry you cannot charge your vehicle. Sorry we remote disabled your electric car. Sorry no plane ticket for you. Sorry, the cab company won't accept your attempt at payment. Sorry, sorry sorry.
W.A.K.E. U.P.!!!
Bro they already track regular currency.
What do you think those serial numbers are for? It's all tracked. Dollars, coins, blockchain, credit/debit. They're all tools of the beast, homeslice.
The serial numbers aren't magically tracked. When I pay bob a dollar, and Bob pays a store and a store gets paid by Phil who gets my original dollar as change from the register, then Phil gives said dollar to Sally ... Etc
None of that is tracked.
I'm not saying you can't get around it. I'm just saying it has a serial number and masonic imagery for a reason. :p
The paper currency itself may be tracked, sure, but the user of the paper currency isn't which is why they want apps, debit cards, venmo, paypal, crypto, whatever. Anything EXCEPT cash.
If the feds chose to bomb your location. You and Bob are screwed.
I was thinking of carrying around a bunch of gold coins, but this is much better.
1 ozt coins with premium go for about $1900 and lower, fractional amounts carry a far heavier premium relative to the amount of gold contained.
Perhaps gold for expensive purchases and silver for common goods?
Silver coins and fractional silver are much more usable. Gold is for storing wealth.
Ther is an RfID strip In Most money now. As you walk through certain parts of the airport money can be counted automatically while it sits in your suitcase.
Figures. 🤮
God help us all. We got stuck with a govt that acts like a paranoid abusive spouse.
Pretty soon a dozen eggs will all have serial numbers.
I wonder if we could degause out money with a large magnet
Microwave it. That'll take care of sensitive electronics with an antenna.
However, I seriously doubt that paper money has Any RFID in it.
Mostly true, but absolutely nothing like the digital dollar they want to install, which will track everything you buy down to a stick of gum! Far worse in my opinion. Use cash every chance you can ! Fuck the convenience of plastic
They will know and they will tax you.
They sure wish they would. But this is where the high-tech cat and mouse game starts.
Up to a point in the near future, the only way to own equity was to expose yourself.
Monero
Electronic money can be fully anonymous. Zcash for example uses zero knowledge proofs. No one can track it
