https://neofeudalreview.substack.com...corruption-the... we are confronted with three distinct narratives about cryptocurrency:
- Cryptocurrency as Revolutionary Technology: Cryptocurrency, with its blockchain technology, offers a new way of transacting that cuts out intermediaries like banks and governments. The transactions are private, verifiable, and secure. Unlike gold or silver, cryptocurrencies solve the logistical issues of storage, transfer, and counterfeit prevention. Julian Assange, for example, recommended cryptocurrency to Google’s executive chairman and lizard-man Eric Schmidt as early as 2011, as recounted in the book When Google Met WikiLeaks, after WikiLeaks found itself cut off from the financial system.
- Cryptocurrency as Fundamentally Corrupted and Controlled: I have previously discussedhow the entire crypto space has been corrupted by Tether. This $100 billion operation, run by known fraudsters, has never undergone a proper audit, and there is strong evidence suggesting that it has artificially inflated the crypto market by printing vast amounts of funds out of thin air and buying digital coins with them. The daily trading volume of Tether is greater than the trading volume of the top ten coins combined. The Tether scam, which was suspected as early as 2017, raises doubts about the legitimacy of the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem. Governments, I believe, could easily crash the market by targeting Tether or by shutting down fiat on/offramps like Coinbase. I felt uneasy about investing in crypto for these reasons - why would governments allow a viable alternative to fiat currency to flourish, especially when crypto is often used in illicit activities?Erik Wikström
discusses this a bit in this comment. Bitfinexed on Twitter has also focused on the details of Tether with sustained energy for years.Thus, these three levels of understanding - cryptocurrency as worth investing in, as not worth investing in, and ultimately worth investing in again - mirror the logic of the precogs in The Minority Report: the initial belief in cryptocurrency as a revolution, followed by a realization of its corruption, and ultimately an acceptance of it because the system is controlled by those in power. Two out of three, investment wins and those who did early got amazingly rich from it!
3. Cryptocurrency as a Positive Investment Because It’s Corrupted: This perspective sees the crypto corruption as a plus, with the CIA and NSA backing Tether to prevent its collapse (the Russian term for this kind of protection is a krisha. In this manner the elites felt comfortable with growing the space because they control it - they could pump or crash the market at their leisure. By allowing the crypto space to grow, these agencies were able to test blockchain technology in preparation for upcoming Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), which are poised to result in the greatest loss of personal freedom in history, discussed previously here. Crypto has also allowed these elites to enrich themselves and bolster CIA black operations. With research into CBDCs basically finished and ready for rollout - either gradually (via Musk/Trump $5,000 payments to people via CBDC, perhaps?) or rapidly as a dialectical solution to a contrived financial crisis - the primary objective of privately owned crypto has already been accomplished. It seems the exit strategy of our elites will be to offload the massive cost of this privately owned crypto Ponzi scheme onto the public through government-backed cryptocurrency reserves and other bailouts. This third stage is far more cynical and disillusioned than the second, which still held some belief in the rule of law and the ability of ins utions to control fraud. I’m convinced that if the elites hadn't been able to dominate and control the crypto space, it would have collapsed much sooner.
Cryptocurrency is at the stage now of in-your-face violent, intense fraud. The cryptocurrency industry backed Trump to win the election and has heavily capitalized on it; investigations into the endless number of crypto scams have been shut down, Howard Lutnick - an arch-criminal heavily involved in the Tether scam - is now the Secretary of Commerce, the investigation into corrupt Coinbase has been shut down after they donated tens of millions to his campaign (and the CEO’s sister now works for DOGE), the investigation into also arch-criminal Justin Sun has been shut down after his enormous contributions to Trump, Trump himself has benefitted from the enormously in-your-face corrupt TRUMPCOIN (launched two days before his inauguration where he made billions of dollars from it!) and MELANIACOIN, and each time crypto starts falling in price a new narrative is released to re-pump the price (such as Trump pledging to introduce a governmental crypto reserve). Corporate transparency has also been banished by executive fiat. All while the IRS is being cut in half (something I am not opposed to in theory, but when combined with the above it’s clearly being done to facilitate fraud).
There’s also enormous insider trading going on — the day before Trump introduced the governmental crypto reserve idea someone bought $200 million of Bitcoin and Ethereum on 50x leverage and made $1.5 billion of profit in a single day. Someone sent me the below image from a Telegram chat or elsewhere, I cannot speak to it’s origin but the bet must be from someone deeply connected within the administration.
Michel de Cryptadamus noted a smaller (still seven figures) but similar trade at 50x leverage here. This is so wrong and gross. And we’re only two months into this administration! Imagine where we will be as a country with four years of this (or longer if Vance wins in 2028) - it boggles the mind.Anyway, I’m too disturbed by what’s unfolding in this space to keep focusing on the details. Cryptadamus is doing an excellent job of exposing the staggering extent of in-your-face corruption so check out his Substack Notes for more information. The wolves are in the henhouse now, and there's no longer any fear of prosecution from the authorities. The CIA/NSA-backed Tether scam will eventually be offloaded onto the public who will bear the cost through inflation. CBDCs are ready to roll out, and a woke, sinister AI is being fine-tuned to usher in a digital panopticon, where everyone’s behavior will be micromanaged on an individual level. The head of the Bank for International Settlements, Agustin Carstens, brags about what is coming soon with their micromanaged CBDC control grid and dramatically decreasing quality of life for most:
One can see these pigs at the trough rushing to get rich so that they are on the ruling end of this rapidly progression transition to neoliberal feudalism.

https://news.bloomberglaw.com/litigation/anti-money-laundering-bitcoin-founder-guilty-of-fraud-schemeMarcus Rowland Andrade, founder of a cryptocurrency called Anti-Money Laundering Bitcoin, orchestrated a multimillion-dollar pump-and-dump scheme on investors in 2017, a 12-person San Francisco federal jury decided Wednesday.
Andrade, a Texas businessman who worked with the notorious lobbyist Jack Abramoff to market AML Bitcoin as a safe and reliable payment system, could face decades in prison under the verdict. The jury deliberated for about a day before finding Andrade guilty of one count of wire fraud and one count of money laundering.

with a bought and paid for Trump covering their backs, crypto-lords launch a vendetta against their erstwhile regulators
https://www.politico.com/news/2025/0...ustry-00229070The cryptocurrency industry endured a legal onslaught from the Securities and Exchange Commission — and won.
Now, some of its biggest names are firing back at the Wall Street regulator.
In the wake of President Donald Trump’s election with the aid of hefty contributions from crypto, industry executives and backers have begun testing their new political power by pushing for accountability from the SEC — and in some cases payback — as the regulatory landscape shifts in their favor.
Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong and Ripple’s top lawyer, Stuart Alderoty, are calling on the industry to shun law firms that hire SEC employees who were involved in the crackdown, chilling the job market for staff exiting the agency. Coinbase also pressed the SEC for information on how much money it spent investigating crypto companies under former Chair Gary Gensler. And billionaires Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss — the Trump-supporting twins behind crypto company Gemini — want the agency to fire the investigators who worked on their case and to call them out on its website.
“Crypto needs rules, not because investors lack protection but because builders and companies lack protection — we need a firewall against federal regulatory attacks,” Cameron Winklevoss wrote on X. “[The] enemy is inside the system.”
new crypto SPAC launched by principals of Trump Media
https://www.forbes.com/sites/zacheve...es-swider-ipo/Renatus Tactical Acquisition Corp I, a special purpose acquisition company incorporated in the Cayman Islands, is looking to raise at least $179 million through both an initial public offering and private placement, funds it plans to use to acquire another business.
The firm’s leadership has deep ties to President Donald Trump’s media company: Renatus Tactical CEO Eric Swider is a Trump Media board member and led the company that merged with it; Devin Nunes, CEO, president and chair of Trump Media, also chairs Renatus Tactical’s board; and Alexander Cano, Renatus Tactical’s COO, was president and secretary of the firm that merged with Trump Media.
Renatus Tactical is targeting acquisitions in the cryptocurrency and blockchain, data security, and dual-use technology sectors, industries with heavy government involvement as regulators or major clients, according to its SEC filing.
Trump appointees lead the SEC, Department of Justice and Federal Trade Commission, agencies that oversee regulatory and legal reviews of mergers.
Swider, Nunes and spokespeople for Trump Media did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
(Reuters) - The U.S. Treasury on Friday lifted economic sanctions against Tornado Cash, a firm that makes cryptocurrency transactions harder to track, which the Biden administration had accused of helping launder more than $7 billion for North Korean and other cyber hackers.

what do you think about your own post?
They had a round table some where today over this Crypto materiel and I had a TO with my Green Acres...they were discussing who would honor a virtually unknown "coin"...
tee, hee.
He can't.
Ya moron, you.
He almost never does
So shy with his personal opinion
On an anonymous board
Trumpies like to flex, but they're cowardly about their own ideological commitments for some reason
Bad faith
I'm with him...since the "Both Sides" event a thousand years ago. He teetered that night trying to decide if he had it in him to do what he'd set out to do, or, to cave in & sell out.
It was a long night back then. I tossed and turned on my couch all night long, worrying about him and what he'd do, and of course the Suns/tee, hee.
But come morning he marched his chubby rump out there and lit CNN's Acosta up..."Both sides." He's never looked back.
I told him he'd never look and find me not there. He followed me. And the rest is history. I told the wife I'd take a bullet for him. She yelled at me and made me a cornbread instead. "Don't ever say that again, Dale, especially in front of the children and I mean it."
Trump doing crypto fraud, as a little treat

https://www.prnewswire.com/news-rele...302415473.htmlDominari Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: DOMH) today announced that American Data Centers Inc. ("ADC") and Hut 8 Corp, ("Hut") partnered to form American Bitcoin Corporation. As previously announced, ADC was a wholly owned subsidiary of Dominari, but became an independent company, whose members include Donald J. Trump Jr., Eric Trump, Dominari and other industry professionals in the AI space. In partnership with Hut, American Bitcoin Corp., will focus on industrial-scale bitcoin mining and strategic bitcoin reserve development and monetization.
Struggling miner Hut 8 pushes back on short-seller’s pump-and-dump claims
Hut 8 is in full damage control mode following a short-seller’s report that the BTC block reward miner is setting investors up for “the coming HUT Pump and Dump.”
On January 18, short-selling firm J Capital Research released a report on Hut 8 detailing “management hiding stock ownership through [an] undisclosed related party, a stock-promoter cabal, and a host of left-for-dead assets.”
J Cap claims Hut 8 shareholders are at risk of “being on the wrong side of an over-levered pump-and-dump, only to be left holding the most inefficient [BTC] miner, which is unprofitable even at a [BTC] price of over $60,000.”
The report follows Hut 8’s 2023 merger with U.S. Bitcoin Corp (USBTC), the Texas-based mining outfit. USBTC was part of the Fahrenheit group, a consortium that last year assumed control of the assets of bankrupt digital asset lender Celsius Network, including its 122,000 BTC mining units.
J Cap claims USBTC is “backed by promoters with a history of legal trouble,” including co-founder/CEO Michael Ho, a former Vancouver-based car salesman that J Cap claims has links to “Honig group stock promoters.” Barry Honig is a Florida businessman who was once the largest shareholder of BTC miner Riot Blockchain (since rebranded as Riot Platform).
