Just to play devils advocate: if we replaced fiat currency at this point, the value of the dollar would plummet as there is simply too much money in circulation to be backed by a tangible asset. The value of gold is artificially surpressed by the bullion banks. When someone buys gold, say a government, they dont actually buy the asset but rather a claim on the asset. If we were to suddenly back the dollar with gold, the holder of that gold would see outrageous gains in value....and guess (((who))) holds the actual gold? We are really faced with a decision, hyperinflation seemingly overnight, or gradual inflation over the course of our lives?

The U.S. treasury is the largest gold reserve on the planet. A return to the gold standard would indefinitely stabilize the dollar after the shock of half a century of money printing wears off
I'll take a giant short term shock over long term torture waiting around watching my country turn into a police state while they setup their global government
You don't understand, America is the last stand against the NWO
The first and second amendments are the biggest thorn in their sides that's slowing them down. But they're under massive attack and if we don't route the Fed out soon enough, the world is going to be in for a lot of misery

I'd like to think so also. What happened when Germany asked for its gold?
America is the last stand against Lucifer.

Agreed. Take away people's faith in it and what use does cryptocurrency have?
Gold and silver have numerous alternative uses. They're used in electronics, jewelry, auto parts, medical devices, etc

Agreed.
Other than moving to a 3rd world country, what do we do to fight them.
Especially when you take into account, all urban areas support the system.

There needs to be a grassroots awareness campaign. Explain to as many people as you can how central banking is theft. Everybody can get on board with this. Left, Right, cuck, chad, Muslim, Christian, everyone. Literally everyone should agree that theft is bad and worth fighting

dude, obviously you do not understand human nature as well as those guiding the herds right now
if it were that fucking easy we wouldn't have to talk about it
look at the election for christ's sake, clinton is a literal serial killer who sold uranium to the russian mob and silicon valley tech to the chinese and yet guess how many people were too stupid to even allow themselves to THINK about what was going on let alone read anything contradictory to the media flow

Bitcoin was intended to be a currency. Gold price in fiat dollars fluctuates greatly because of central bank manipulations but its hedge value remains constant, I see bitcoin in the same light. In a centralized world decentralization is the answer. Bitcoins bubble will remain until it is used in frequency as apply pay. At which time is will change the world if the bankers fail to stop that.

So long as the Fed exists, they will use the IRS to classify bitcoin as an asset and tax it accordingly
Crypto cannot flourish with the Fed in power. The Fed cannot be subverted. The NSA and IRS have tools to track every digital transaction. They'll find your crypto no matter what. How will you pay rent anonymously? What about groceries and utility bills? You're on the grid. There's surveillance cameras everywhere.
Crypto is not a viable means to sideline the Fed. The Fed must be defeated head on. Guys have even tried using U.S. mint gold coins to pay employees based on golds face value which the IRS recognizes as they accept payment on that value in gold. They still raided his businesses and he's rotting in jail now for "fraud" and tax evasion. What a hypocritical crock of shit

You need a list of names, dedicated individuals and a bit of chemistry and timing to get anything done. Everyone here knows what you say, how do you plan to shape the future? With compliance?
