Has Bitcoin Laid The Foundation For A Dystopian Future? ](https://florianghe.com/has-bitcoin-laid-the-foundation-for-a-dystopian-future/) # Winds of Dystopia Buried in the stimulus legislation [is a tax break](https://www.cnn.com/2020/03/27/investing/tax-bill-real-estate/index.html) that removes the limits on amount of capital gains from real estate that will be tax-free from years 2018, 2019 and 2020. This enables a massive fire-sale on real estate before the _private sector_ interest rates skyrocket crushing real estate values into the abyss and putting Americans under water on their mortgages. The likelihood of a Great Depression is increasing.

It is totalitarianism. What we have had so far is not Capitalism, it’s Cartelism.

Below that there’s support at ~`$5k` and `$4.6k`: [![](https://i.imgur.com/vxWPIDb.png)
(click to embiggen)](https://imgur.com/a/uj9NKjI) I had an inkling that Bitcoin would decline before going higher when Bitcoin double-topped ~`$7k` and the DJIA and SPX stock market indices declined into the close of the week after rallying significantly in the early afternoon when the U.S. House of Representatives finally passed the stimulus legislation. A typical sell the news event and raise cash before an uncertain weekend. More confirmation that sentiment might turn negative was observed by listening to Trump admit that he might have to accept a longer period of economic shutdown than a reopening by Easter. # The Totalitarianism Virus Tangentially **`even more disconcerting was Trump agreeing with a reporter’s question about whether there might be a necessity to impose some restrictions on travel into and out of specific areas such as counties, cities or States of the U.S.A. with very low or high levels of nCov-19 cases in order to prevent spread between these differential prevalence of the virus`**. Trump also said the Florida governor wasn’t happy about New Yorkers coming down for the Spring Break. And now some potential actions to that effect: [Trump Considering Enforceable Quarantine on New York, New Jersey and Connecticut](https://time.com/5811991/trump-quarantine-new-york-jersey-connecticut/) [Rhode Island Governor Announces National Guard Will Go 'Door-to-Door' to Identify New Yorkers to Slow COVID-19 Spread](https://time.com/5812069/rhode-island-new-york-coronavirus/) [Coronavirus: Trump backs away from New York quarantine](https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-52080119): > Mr Cuomo also said he would sue nearby Rhode Island if the authorities there continued targeting New Yorkers and threatening to punish them for failing to quarantine. https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/governors-order-police-stop-interrogate-new-yorkers-covid-19-cases-top-660k-globally The fight above between Rhode Island, New York and other States could eventually lead to invoking Draconian laws that put the CDC (a private foundation!) in control of right-to-travel, c.f.

It is a draft of model legislation to increase state powers to respond to bio-terrorism or other outbreaks of disease that the Centers for Disease Control and others want the states to pass into law. Although such legislation is needed, the current draft of the Model Act, unfortunately, is written in a way that doesn’t adequately protect citizens against the misuse of the tremendous powers that it would grant in an emergency. > >Denmark rushed through a bill that allows them to enlist the police in forced testing, treatment, and punishment relating to the coronavirus. You can be punished for refusing to be tested, and you can be forcibly vaccinated. You can be refused access to supermarkets, shops, public transport, etc. unless you are tested. More on that in the _U.N. Enslavement of the U.S.A._ section below… I also noticed that Trump seemed much more upbeat and a better mood compared to a few days ago. Essentially I believe Trump is in a more compromising mood and feels less panicked urgency, because the stock market had a huge bounce this week. He knows his reelection hinges on “it’s the economy stupid.” I guess he feels with the stimulus help on the way that perhaps the worst of the stock market rout has completed. But there’s likely another leg down in the markets in early April. Perhaps another reason for feeling upbeat is the media was publicizing a _**non**-peer reviewed_ [Oxford study](https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.03.24.20042291v1) that claimed only 1-in-1000 who become infected will end up hospitalized. Even Armstrong was naively boasting about this [_bogus_ paper](https://pubpeer.com/publications/868F9FDD735B1EF62FE3B05616148F) to support his view that the economy can and must be reopened immediately. The Oxford study [is political propaganda](https://www.livescience.com/half-the-uk-infected-coronavirus-covid19.html): > But this mathematical narrative rests on several key assumptions that are not backed by real-world data, experts told Wired. > > To begin, the authors write that their overall approach “rests on the assumption that only a very small proportion of the population is at risk of hospitabitable illness.” In their most extreme model, the authors estimate that just 0.1% of the population, or one in every 1,000 people, will require hospitalization. > > “We can already see just by looking at Italy ... that that figure has already been exceeded,” Tim Colbourn, an epidemiologist at University College London’s Institute for Global Health […] > “As far as I can tell, the model ... assumes that all those infected, whether they are asymptomatic, mildly ill or severely ill are equally infectious to others,” Paul Hunter, a professor of medicine at the University of East Anglia, wrote on the Science Media Centre site. “This is almost certainly false.” Data suggest that asymptomatic and mildly symptomatic people may actually fuel the rapid spread of COVID-19. > > In addition, the model assumes that the U.K. population would become “completely mixed” over time, meaning any given individual has an equal chance of running into another within the region, Hunter wrote. “We do not all have an equal random chance of meeting every other person in the U.K., infected or otherwise,” he said. Without some acknowledgement of the structure of social networks within the U.K.; the relative risk of running into a mildly symptomatic or asymptomatic person; and the risk of severe infection tied to different demographics, the simplified model “should not be given much credibility,” Hunter said. > > In comparison, [a recent study from Imperial College London](https://www.imperial.ac.uk/media/imperial-college/medicine/sph/ide/gida-fellowships/Imperial-College-COVID19-NPI-modelling-16-03-2020.pdf) included numbers from several Italian villages where every resident received a diagnostic test and might provide more realistic benchmarks for the extent of infection elsewhere, lead author Niall Ferguson told the Science and Technology Committee, according to Wired U.K. “Those data all point to the fact that we are nowhere near the [Oxford study] scenario in terms of the extent of the infection,’ Ferguson said. https://twitter.com/jameshay218/status/1242935853971910656 > In terms of the implied fraction of the population that is already immune: _“.. the proportion of the UK population that has already been infected could be anywhere between 0.71% and 56% (95% credible intervals...)”_. The model as it stands is useless in terms of narrowing down the key parameters, at least with the restricted data employed. Additionally any study fitting to cases confirmed by testing may overestimate spread and perhaps also `R₀` due to the false positive problem Armstrong [had raised](https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/international-news/disease/why-we-should-not-test-everyone/) and I [elaborated](http://esr.ibiblio.org/?p=8627#comment-2389258). Curiously the [paper](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32133832/) Armstrong cited has hence been retracted. Hmm. Are papers which go against the official narrative being pressured to be retracted? Are shoddy papers being planted to encourage conspiracy theories? Armstrong [has continued](https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/international-news/disease/proposal-for-a-one-world-government-being-floated/) to repeat the _erroneous_ [claim that](https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/international-news/disease/ferguson-reverses-his-claims-on-the-virus-were-wrong/) Neil Ferguson retracted the findings of his earlier [Imperial College study](https://www.imperial.ac.uk/media/imperial-college/medicine/sph/ide/gida-fellowships/Imperial-College-COVID19-NPI-modelling-16-03-2020.pdf): > Ferguson now says both that the U.K. should have enough ICU beds and that the coronavirus will probably kill under 20,000 people in the U.K. and interestingly he now admits that more than half of whom would have died by the end of the year in any case because they were so old and sick. Ferguson now predicts that the epidemic in the U.K. will peak and subside within “two to three weeks” after advocating 18+ months of quarantine would be necessary. Read [No, a COVID Scientist Didn’t Walk Back His Prediction](https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/coronavirus-pandemic-neil-ferguson-did-not-walk-back-covid-19-predictions/). Armstrong is simply wrong on every point quoted above. Ferguson’s models always had two peaks for any scenario involving stricter social distancing. If social distancing is lifted, the second peak can be greater and allegedly also overwhelm the hospital system. The better case (i.e. stricter social distancing and other mitigation) scenarios had the `20,000` deaths for the first peak. He moved the target date of the first peak forward [because](https://twitter.com/j_owl/status/1243514864850657280) new evidence suggests transmissibility is greater (and/or starting earlier relative to start of infection?). Dr. Anthony Fauci [explains](https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMe2002387) some of the issues and he also cites what I believe may be the most important factor of all which I had mentioned in my blog [Diabolical MERS-derived, “Chimera” Coronavirus Masquerading as the ‘Common Cold’?](https://steemit.com/coronavirus/@anonymint/diabolical-mers-derived-chimera-coronavirus-masquerading-as-the-common-cold) 23 days ago—**`early asymptomatic or mild flu-like symptoms transmissibility originating from the oropharynx and nasal cavity instead of from in the lungs as was the case for SARS`**: [![](https://i.imgur.com/HjHib64.png)](https://headandneckcancerguide.org/teens/cancer-basics/explore-cancer-types/throat-cancer/oropharyngeal-cancer/) So an infected person with the original SARS had to cough up the virus. Whereas the for nCov-19 (SARS-CoV-2) an infected individual merely has to sneeze or exhale. Transmissibility may be very high. `R₀` would vary to the degree that hygiene, social distancing and (unfortunately!) **`even more draconain measures`** are undertaken to combat the transmissibility. The Ferguson (aka Imperial College) paper concluded that [“Suppression”](https://www.imperial.ac.uk/media/imperial-college/medicine/sph/ide/gida-fellowships/Imperial-College-COVID19-NPI-modelling-16-03-2020.pdf#page=3) is the only option that doesn’t overwhelm the healthcare system in Great Britain (and the USA). It appears this virus is designed with early onset, mild-symptom or asymptomatic, very high transmission—so as to blackmail society into totalitarian quarantines. Additionally this new virus has very high mortality and/or longer-term lung injury among the geriatric population: [![](https://i.imgur.com/nF2jfQO.png)](https://www.imperial.ac.uk/media/imperial-college/medicine/sph/ide/gida-fellowships/Imperial-College-COVID19-NPI-modelling-16-03-2020.pdf#page=5) With those over 65 in the U.S.A.

Culling many of the elderly radicalizes the electorate by giving the youth a larger share. Culling those with chronic infections and elderly reduces society’s future retirement and healthcare burdens. However, Armstrong may be correct that we can and should just build more hospitals instead of collapsing the global economy into a Great Depression.

Our press are propagandists](https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/international-news/disease/video-saying-there-is-no-crisis-in-berlin/) Yet I’m still concerned about [antigen imprinting or antibiotic-dependent enhancement (ADE)](http://esr.ibiblio.org/?p=8587#comment-2374154) due to reinfection or new viral bioweapon two or more years after the initial survived infection. Does this become like a Biblical plague over the years or decade reducing the human population to 500 million? Well I guess we can’t stop that with perpetual quarantines either. My most immediate concern is how this is an excuse to lurch into authoritarianism, totalitarianism and even global governance. So I agree with Armstrong. But most of the people are scared a.f. and are begging to be enslaved. And the nations initiating socialism-on-steriods such as the pretext/precursor of universal basic income (UBI) stipends, nationalizing healthcare with Trump forced to use the DPA, nationalizing many industries, etc.. Thus the governments will need to become even more strict about tax collection and capital controls. This is the perfect pretext to establishing the 666 system. This is [far too convenient, byzantine and perfectly timed, suited to](http://esr.ibiblio.org/?p=8587#comment-2388142) have a naturally selected, zoonotic origin, c.f.

See section _White “Christians” Love Surety_ below for more on why curtailment is probably worse. Also from that Armstrong blog: > **`Socrates has projected it [the virus? pandemic? in UK or worldwide?] would peak by the week of April 6th to the worst-case scenario the week of April 20th.`** Socrates is factoring in the quarantines and lockdowns. # More About the Bitcoin Future > Here was Socrates’ [Forecast] array on the Dow [i.e. DJIA] published last November. Besides showing a string of Directional Changes until March, it showed that March would be a Panic Cycle and that volatility would rise February and March. > > https://i.imgur.com/c0xsbnW.png The Directional Changes on the updated end of March Forecast Array added a Directional Change in April, allowing for a final bottom in April. Volatility plummets in April and action doesn’t pickup again until May. Privately Armstrong has recently blogged that the lowest for the DJIA could be `15,000` in first week of April. He may have also mentioned the first week of April in his public blogs. https://i.imgur.com/VLUYbSl.jpg [Managing Money v Teaching You How to Survive](https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/armstrongeconomics101/opinion/managing-money-v-teaching-you-how-to-survive/): > Again you said the market would decline into the 23 of March and that should be the temporary low. Let’s compare to what I wrote in my prior blog about the current Forecast Array for Bitcoin: > Armstrong is warning about his _monthly_ Bitcoin [Forecast Array](https://ask-socrates.com/Content/Files/The%20SOCRATES%20Platform%20-%20Premium%20Market%20Tools%20Overview%20(January%202019).pdf#page=7) that April has a key turning point and rising volatility. He mentions paying attention to bearish reversals in his [Reversals system](https://ask-socrates.com/Content/Files/The%20SOCRATES%20Platform%20-%20Premium%20Market%20Tools%20Overview%20(January%202019).pdf#page=8).

The start of the flash crash can be the pulling of the SLINGSHOT and thus actually a bullish move! Socrates’ Forecast Array for April has increasing intraday and day-to-day volatility which should be the choppiness of establishing the bottom with wilder swings between finding the low and potentially bounces ranging back up to the `$9k` to `$10k` level. > >Then day-to-day volatility increases into May which I think could be the bullish acceleration upwards, although it could also be the bearish acceleration downwards of a SegWit attack! Yikes. But I don’t think this already-in-doomsday-SegWit-attack interpretation is likely as I will argue below but also let’s not forget what I had inserted in the top of my prior blog [Whither Bitcoin in a Global Liquidity Contagion?](https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@anonymint/whither-bitcoin-in-a-global-liquidity-contagion): > >> [![](https://i.imgur.com/cQ7lHG1.png)

Or are they crashing the price because the SegWit death spiral is underway now? > >The Forecast Array has extreme values in the Longitudinal Wave row for the April and July 2020 columns. Perhaps this could be explained by the opening of the fractal to the larger fractal which is this huge bullish move to the analogous November 2013 ATH as I explained in my prior blog [Bitcoin Death Spiral Underway — or Something Else?](https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@anonymint/bitcoin-death-spiral-underway-or-something-else): > >> #### Can Only Be Bullish — Signifies Opening of a Massive Bullish Fractal >> >> ^{It reflects transitioning from a smaller fractal to a large one, due to wave interference from the large fractal. This means the next bullish move is going to be much greater than the one to `$13.5k`.} >> >> ^{This is playing out as my model had predicted.} > >The July 2020 case could be the forking of the fractal pattern also between the uber bullish legacy Bitcoin and terminally ill Bitcoin Core. A plausible explanation for why there’s no significant bullish nor bearish Trading Cycle extreme value for the entire year until November 2020 when it spikes very bullish, could be that there’s a mixed signal of bullish for legacy Bitcoin and bearish for Bitcoin Core until the market has settled by November at them being separate forks with separate trajectories. > >Then there’s rising intraday volatility in June 2020 along with a Directional Change, which could be indecision around the ~`$20k` ATH, the July 2019 `$13.9k` peak or the currently ~`$10.5k` long-term downtrend overhead resistance line that runs from the 2017 ATH through the June 2019 peak `$13.9k`. That June 2020 Directional Change doesn’t fit a SegWit collapse to near ~$0 scenario, if the March and June Directional Changes are bearish and bullish respectively. The only way the June Direction Change can be bearish (and thus possibly the start of the SegWit attack) is if the March Directional Change is bullish. Thus May/June seems to be breaking through the `$13.9k` and `$20k` levels making new ATHs everyday in June until the Bearish Reversal and Directional Change is reached. However if the March Directional Change is bearish but not a SegWit collapse level of bearish, then the June Directional Change would be bullish so the rise in the Bitcoin price could continue after June, although this would conflict with Armstrong’s expectation of cryptocurrencies being destroyed (if he expects that near-term) yet the bearish reversals with a bottoming May would be consistent with his stated expectation. And in that scenario (i.e. no SegWit attack before ~October 2020) the high volatility in May could be the final bottoming process of this current correction. So I’m claiming we can likely determine if a SegWit attack is likely in June by observing whether there’s a new ATH in June. The next opportunity for the posited SegWit attack would be Sept/October 2020 with the rising volatility forecast. > >The Long-Term shift in August with a bullish Trading Cycle in November and then very high intraday volatility in December could be a rise heading towards ~`$40k` – `$100+k` and beyond. > >So I can only arrive at bullish outcomes for Bitcoin, including the possibility of a SegWit attack in June or October 2020 which would make Armstrong think Bitcoin had been destroyed to fulfill his predictions and expectations. The Directional Change in March with the SLINGSHOT bottom could be the start of the very bullish phase (to finally break through the aforementioned three overhead resistance levels) which then peaks in June with a Directional Change towards bearish. That June Directional Change could be the peak and start of the SegWit attack. > >A June SegWit attack would also correspond with inciting civil unrest in June/July that Armstrong’s computer predicts. The millennials have been big into cryptocurrency as USAFtards and other [Ycombinator-esque retarded stuff](http://trilema.com/2013/ycombinator-continues-to-suck-jointly-and-severally/) such as ERC-20 utility tokens, c.f. [Let's have fun with Paul Graham](http://trilema.com/2012/lets-have-fun-with-paul-graham/). > >Let’s remember that even Armstrong was caught off-guard by this manufactured virus crisis. He was not expecting the extreme manipulations although he was expecting a correction from the January 18 ECM date [until a March 23 low](https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/armstrongeconomics101/opinion/managing-money-v-teaching-you-how-to-survive/). So he would also not be expecting a SegWit attack although his bearishness would again be congruent with unexpected manipulations. The very high volatility in June could be the new ATH above `$20k` peak followed by a crash and then the August Long-term shift with legacy Bitcoin turning bullish by November and the Bitcoin Core cratering into the abyss. > >An April crash for Bitcoin on the into the abyss and end of cryptocurrencies would be inconsistent with what we expect for gold. It would mean that cryptocurrency had been identified as a failure to be a hard asset at a critical juncture. Instead I believe the powers-that-be would want to sucker all the greater fools into chasing Bitcoin up to some new ATH with FOMO _“Bitcoin is a savoir hard asset in these times of great crisis”_ and then totally fuck them all because they hodl in non-legacy address even though they were warned many times not to do so. IOW, Bitcoin must not fail to be a hard asset. Instead the users must fail to believe in immutable, hard assets and instead chase egalitarian unicorn fantasy _“we can scale Bitcoin for all of us because we have good intentions.”_ > >Satan is ethical. Abstractly the analogous situation is happening with the nCov-19 trojan horse in that the people have been handed a rope long enough to hang themselves and they enthusiastically embraced the necessary hysteria about surety and guaranteed safety thus ignoring the basic tenets of liberty as expressed in for example Biblical `1 Samuel 8`, Proverbs and Benjamin Franklin’s famous quip: > >> ^{Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.} > >Armstrong could be fooled because he firmly believes nation-states can prevent everyone from using Bitcoin. That’s because he still hasn’t realized that _legacy_ Bitcoin (with immutable 1 MiB size blocks) is not designed for the masses to use as a cryptocurrency. It’s designed only for the $billionaires to use as an international clearing currency and stable global unit-of-account fulcrum [in a two-tiered currency system](https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@anonymint/legacy-bitcoin-rises-surreptitiously-as-the-reserve-in-a-new-two-tier-monetary-system-whilst-impostor-bitcoin-core-dies) (in the coming monetary reset) from which to enforce discipline on the nation-states.

So stated more coherently the March Directional Change could be the shift to a bullish phase from the bearish market Bitcoin has been declining in since the July 2019 peak (or even since the late 2017 ATH because July 2019 didn’t make an all-time-high aka ATH). That would be monumental. But then there’s this pesky Directional Change again in June. If that is to be a shift to bearish, then would that be U.S. Treasury Secretary Mnuchin’s plan to tighten the AML and KYC noose on crypto? Or would it be the posited SegWit donations attack? The alternatives to the June 2020 SegWit donations attack scenario: 1. March Directional Change is bearish, so June 2020 will shift to bullish. 2. March Directional Change is bullish, so June 2020 will shift to bearish because of U.S. Treasury Secretary Mnuchin’s crackdown. We can probably eliminate #2 by delving further into the theory I cited in my above quote about the miners dumping their Bitcoins exacerbating the crash. I know for a fact that many Bitmain S9 were turned on as the price rose last summer and reactivated this past February as the price climbed back over `$8.5k`. And right before the crash as the price had declined to `$8k`, I was being offered S9 at firesale prices. So some miners were in a cash flow squeeze. [![](https://i.imgur.com/FAuNeko.png)
Bitcoin Mining Sell Pressure Waning, Supply Shock To Drive Massive Price Increase](https://www.newsbtc.com/2020/03/27/bitcoin-mining-sell-pressure-waning-supply-shock-to-drive-massive-price-increase/) Thus Socrates’ Bitcoin Monthly Forecast Array can’t be bearish after June! So either #1 applies or it will be only Bitcoin Core—not _legacy_ Bitcoin—which will be bearish after June. And we can see that the volatility is increasing. Note the wild price swings today. That Long-term event in August on the Bitcoin Forecast Array could be when everyone realizes what has happened and that _legacy_ Bitcoin is a thing.

Note the U.S.A. and the Philippines are the only remaining major countries in the world not participating in that totalitarian tax hunt, because they haven’t codified it in their national laws yet. I [remember](http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article20327.html) reading about 10 years ago a Treasury official was to have quipped in private, “We’ll burn the fingertips of the goldbugs up to their elbows.” https://seekingalpha.com/article/4334374-you-one-week-to-decide Note I agree with everything in the above linked article, except the author does not factor in the stampede of international capital into the U.S. stocks to escape capital controls in EU. The EU is accelerating towards capital controls. Also Trump will fight to reopen the U.S. Economy in mid to late April as he sees the stock markets declining anew into the (lower?) low Armstrong expects in the first week of April. By May or so, Bitcoin will shine as what it is best at in terms of being a unit-of-exchange. Moving funds when there are capital controls! The reason the SegWit attack can’t be until after a moonshot in the price is because Bitcoin must not fail to be a safe haven asset analogous to digital gold (per Satoshi’s whitepaper). Instead we the people must fail to own the digital gold. We plebs will instead choose to own tainted Bitcoins based on the counterfeit Core soft-fork protocol with either a `3` or `bc1` address, or even legacy `1` addresses but with tainted Core lineage. Thus we won’t own “unforgeable costliness” digital gold based on an immutable protocol. We own some counterfeit, impostor named Bitcoin Core, which everyone erroneously thinks is the “official” Bitcoin. Official as defined by whom? Certainly not by Satoshi the creator of Bitcoin. Remember I [documented recently](https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@anonymint/legacy-bitcoin-rises-surreptitiously-as-the-reserve-in-a-new-two-tier-monetary-system-whilst-impostor-bitcoin-core-dies) that Blockstream and Core were funded by the globalists. # Bitcoin and the Winds of Totalitarianism [Will the Virus Kill Fiat Currencies?](https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/markets-by-sector/precious-metals/gold/will-the-virus-kill-fiat-currencies/): > What governments are doing to end paper currencies is in fact destroying the productive capacity of their economies.

He is no fool. He knows once there is the formation of anything pretended to be “temporary” it exists forever. Why are these people so intent upon trashing our freedoms and converting the world into an authoritarian paradise for them? Nations are being blackmailed into destroyed Central Banks (so as to usher in Bitcoin for the monetary reset) and socialism-on-steriods with nationalization, UBI and totalitarianism. Governments will need to collect massive taxation after the stagflation spigot of stimulus has REKTD everything into a Mad Max scorched earth. So governments will eventually be begging the FATF (analogous to how the people are begging for totalitarianism now) to [help them regulate Bitcoin](https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@anonymint/our-bitcoins-will-be-taken-frozen-by-the-miners-involuntary-income-tax-on-frozen-bitcoin) so they can collect the tax revenues after they realize Bitcoin subverts their regulations and capital controls for as long as their is jurisdictional arbitrage due to incomplete (i.e. lack of total) cooperation between nations. >> We will not be able to cash out at $250k through fiat exchanges. The powers-that-be have a plan with the FATF against us. >> >> That is yet another reason I want to create an altcoin with DEX, so we can cash out to the altcoin even if fiat exchanges are blocked. > > To cash out to altcoin means someone is willing to accept BTC as payment at that juncture. Would anyone have the risk appetite to accept BTC after the Segwit attack when many people are likely ruined financially? They will be more aware of transactions censorship and wondering if they could spent the tainted BTC after they receive it from you. If Bitcoin is rising in price then it means some people want it. Although many of us may be blocked by regulations limiting which exchanges we can legally sell on, there will be some who can sell in other jurisdictions or trade for gold in their locale. Bitcoin will continue to subvert the governments’ laws, which is why eventually they must turn to beg the FATF for help. The globalists want the nations to beg to be ruled by international world government. Thus I don’t expect the [FATF regulation of Bitcoin](https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@anonymint/our-bitcoins-will-be-taken-frozen-by-the-miners-involuntary-income-tax-on-frozen-bitcoin) before late 2020 or perhaps early 2021.

Even worse is the plausible black swan hypothesis that these curtailments could amplify the death rate in 2022 due to antibiotic dependent enhancement (ADE) as individual’s antibodies titers fall into the target range. It’s difficult to get people to budget for black swans. > >The author cites increased risk of mutations as a reason why would should not let the infections proliferate.
