No mention of bitcoin. However it prohibits CBDC in the US so I like it!

Wow! I discovered how to get Mannarino to reply to one of my comments! Just post something he disagrees with. 🤣 I’m honored, Gregory, thanks for all you do for us! I do believe the new admin is here to usher in the new world order. One thing we know, Trump is fickle and can turn 180 degrees on a dime!

No disagreement. Everyone knows we are moving to tokenization. No secret.

Good reason to keep a pro crypto anti CBDC administration in power.

A digital identity encompasses everything that makes you unique in the digital realm, and it is a system that can consolidate all of your most personal intimate data, including which websites you visit, your online purchases, health records, financial accounts, and who you’re friends with on social media. It can be used to determine what products, services, and information are available to you, and it can certainly be used by public and private entities to deny you that access.

Can’t stand it. They don’t need CBDC to track us. Blockchain is where they have been taking us all along for nefarious reasons. I’m going to stick with PM. When the dust settles I will still hold something of value. Trading physical gold for digits on a screen is the single dumbest idea I could think of.

Yes blockchain was developed to track units for everyone to see. that's its point to keep track of shipping exchanges. It's not created to be private, just the opposite. It's no secret or revelation that's why it's called a public ledger to lessen waste and the need for trust. Ergo "Never trust, verfiy". Your attempt to seem shocking falls flat. it was created for a purpose of accounting. Comments like this show neglect of research of what blockchain does. The privacy come with peer to peer usage.

"Blockchain is where they have been taking us all along for nefarious reasons. " oh. i must have read it wrong. It's just FUD. And as fsr as 'tracking' using bitcoin peer to peer as it's being used now (lookup the beef initiative) is as private as exchanging silver.

There is no peer to peer usage, that's the problem. You have to go through an exchange and report your capital gains to the IRS. Where's there any advantage to that? Capital gains are payed on investments not currency so that proves t's not money and not currency.

no. you don't. that's not true at all. there are many many food companies that take btc and you can send btc between people. please look up The Bitcoin White Paper' and The Beef Initiative. it's sent all the time and there is no tax on it it's private. like going to the bank, taking out money and paying cash. private. please become informed.

I am informed. The Bitcoin White Paper was written at the beginning of BTC before it was highjacked by people with deep pockets and its value was manipulated by 'market makers.' You can't convert BTC easily into cash without going through a bank account so if you want to hold it as savings your account balance is at the mercy of the crypto markets. You are forced to go through a bank to convert it into cash. There are no ATM machines that convert BTC into cash where I live. The machines that sell BTC charge ridiculous percentages and fees so they're a losing proposition. The blockchain is on a public ledger so every transaction can be traced from the sender to the recipient so, no, it isn't a private transaction. Why don't more BTC advocates use an encrypted crypto currency like Monero, a truly private alternative to fiat? Could it be greed? I read about the Beef Initiative. How happy do you think Texas Slim will be the next time BTC's value is cut in half by market volatility and he needs to pay for feed, fuel and other expenses with cash? BTC can be used as a method of exchange but its value can always be manipulated by markets, the same as fiat currencies can be manipulated by the debt monetization of governments.

yes you can convert it into anything. countries are already using it successfully without any bank. many people have traveled with only btc. you don't need atms. Texas Slim has been accepting btc for years and in interviews he explains how it all works, look him up on twitter, youtube. He is very educated and always willing to educate. No one who buys, spends, saves btc is shocked by it's volitivity. No one. If they are then they haven't done their research and should not use it. Your viewpoints are fear based. Bitcoin is not crypto. look all these things up specifically to educate yourself.

Fink wants debt tokenized. Said it today. Mannarino is correct about tokenization except it is here already. XRP is the plumbing for it.. They are already close to tokenizing gold. Once they do, commercial banks will add it in a big way to their reserves because it will be super liquid. All real things will be tokenized. And wait until you’re tokenized and you see the derivatives generated on you. 😩🤪😂

I'm afraid there's not even any Bitcoin inside this reserve.

Why? Because Bitcoin is not Made In USA, and Bitcoin cannot be controlled unlike the cryptocurrencies that have been mentioned lately: Solana, USDC, XRP.

Watch what Mannarino feeds you. Read the executive order. I just did. First, it’s another “working group” towards digital asset reserve and it’s not a bitcoin reserve. Because bitcoin is a joke. This guy picks and chooses his headlines and takes things out of context on the regular. Lions or sheep? HMMMM

A Working Group is actually created which will study the interest of this strategic Crypto reserve. The nuance is important.

The executive order working towards developing a national digital asset stockpile has one thing written all over it...and this is that the U.S.D. is nearly on the verge of collapsing altogether. The push for cryptocurrency under U.S. Government supervision is to try and get the masses behind adopting the idea for those who were and still are skeptical about it. The idea that cryptocurrency is being pushed is ironic in itself, because it is supposed to be decentralized, as a back up plan in case the U.S.D (backed by Central Banks) were to become worthless due to the reduction of purchasing power (higher consumer inflation) on the back of excessive money supply. The problem here is that lowering interest rates temporarily increases purchasing power, because it allows liquidity to keep flowing through the financial system, allowing debtors to borrow more at a cheaper rate. The end result is still higher consumer inflation, but it makes the U.S.D more attractive than speculative assets, such as crypto currency or precious metals. The adoption in sponsorship of cryptocurrency in the past month points towards higher rates, rather than lower rates. Higher rates makes it more difficult for debtors to borrow more because the rate at which they borrow is higher. This then pushes people away from the U.S.D and more so into speculative assets. There is more evidence than just what's mentioned above to prove that rates might be moving higher moving forward. The Ten Year Treasury Yield continues to move in an uptrend. The Ten Year Yield is the "ship" that leads the FED Funds Rate, which is the FED's target for interest rates. The Ten Year Yield is now back to 2023 high's, around the same target when interest rates peaked during the rate hike cycle from 2022 - 2024. If the Ten Year Yield moves higher than the peak, it is a clear indication that interest rates won't be going significantly lower during this rate cut cycle, before the FED pivots direction...and the FED will raise rates, regardless of what POTUS says.

This may provide a timeline on the issuance of a CBDC. Get everyone use to the digital assets in the next 4 years, then a currency crash, someone else can rescind the EO and bam you got our CBDC. Or even Trump can rescind the EO early if the timeline changes. He'll be offered options to "save" America and he'll fall for it like he did with COVID. Afraid Greg is right, CBDC is coming eventually.

Also, no CBDC's will be legal. Trump fully understands the difference between Bitcoin and CBDC's unlike some people here.
