Great eye opener that let’s you see how bad it really is. But there is hope and there are things the individual can do about it. And there a hundreds of things to consider. This guide kind of made me start to de-apple my life..

I like the stories most about lottery winners and NBA multi millionaires. Neither of them with any financial literacy. Mostly broker after end of career or after lottery winners pissed away all their money.
Nope. No way. God never hands out t&c s
Never seen these moves before. Fiat Endgame. (I used to trade Nymex #Silver futures for institutional clients some time ago)

Banks will be closed until Monday.
However, the press office of the #Bitcoin company, headed by Satoshi Nakamoto, Japanese-born CEO, Supercoder, President, and Founder, has reiterated its commitment to mining blocks throughout the weekend. The goal is to provide affordable, borderless, and permissionless payment services 24/7/365 to 8 billion people worldwide. 🧡

“As government money has replaced sound money, patrons with low time preference and refined tastes have been replaced by government bureaucrats with political agendas as crude as their artistic taste. Natu- rally, then, neither beauty nor longevity matters anymore, replaced with political prattling and the ability to impress bureaucrats who control the major funding sources to the large galleries and museums, which have become a government-protected monopoly on artistic taste and standards for artistic education. Free competition between artists and donors is now replaced with central planning by unaccountable bureaucrats, with predictably disastrous results. In free markets, the winners are always the ones who provide the goods deemed best by the public. When government is in charge of deciding winners and losers, the sort of people who have nothing better to do with their life than work as government bureaucrats are the arbiters of taste and beauty. Instead of art’s success being determined by the people who have succeeded in attaining wealth through several generations of intelligence and low time preference, it is instead determined by the people with the opportunism to rise in the political and bureaucratic system best. A passing familiarity with this kind of people is enough to explain to anyone how we can end up with the monstrosities of today’s art. In their fiat-fueled ever-growing realm of control, almost all modern governments dedicate budgets to finance art and artists in various media. But as time has gone by, bizarre and barely believable stories have emerged about covert government meddling in arts for political agen- das. While the Soviets funded and directed communist “art” to achieve political and propaganda goals, it has recently emerged that the CIA retorted by financing and promoting the work of abstract expression- ist mattress and cardboard molesters such as Mark Rothko and Jackson Pollock to serve as an American counter. Only with unsound money could we have reached this artistic calamity where the two largest eco- nomic, military, and political behemoths in the world were actively promoting and funding tasteless trash picked by people whose artistic tastes qualify them for careers in Washington and Moscow spy agencies and bureaucracies.”

Messerstecher Uwe? Oder mal wieder Australische Austauschstudenten?
Communism and Fascism. Same BS. Just different branding and marketing. Don’t believe me? Try to criticize both fascist and communist leaders and then compare the results.
Sounds familiar..

I guess there are no days off. The latest in ECB CBDC marketing is a Christmas post from president Christine Lagarde.
To be honest, I would have preferred coal, but here we are... so let me put down the eggnog and break down what's happening here. 
As she noted, the EU Governing Council has given the green light for the digital euro (the ECB's CBDC). In short, the Council said that the digital euro should work both online and offline, have holding limits, allow a "high degree of privacy" while still being AML/KYC compliant, and be free for consumers to use.
This green light from the council does not mean, however, that the digital euro will be launched. Now it's up to the European Parliament to weigh in.
Sadly, though, this process might appear democratic from the outside, but it's really just a formality. It's unlikely that Parliament will alter the course.
As nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7etyv4hzumn0wd68ytnvv9hxgqgdwaehxw309ahx7uewd3hkcqpqdg6es53r3hys9tk3n7aldgz4lx4ly8qu4zg468zwyl6smuhjjrvsm58xhx noted on X, the ECB is just waiting for the Parliament's rubber stamp to move forward.
As CBDC marketing ramps up, it's important to be vigiliant (even on holidays).
As I've noted repeatedly, the ECB's marketing campaign borders on false advertising when it comes to claims about competition and freedom.
