What we’re talking about here isn’t your everyday money laundering; it’s civilization-scale laundering facilitated by central banks. This isn’t some small-time operation; it’s legalized crime on a global scale. Banks pack their balance sheets with worthless securities, then cry for bailouts when the jig is up. It’s a classic con, and it’s happened worldwide numerous time, from small to large countries, and always propped up by the fiat system. Without fiat’s flexibility to, let’s say, ‘creatively manage’ economics, this kind of scheme becomes a whole lot harder, if not impossible.
Bitcoin fiat? That’s way off base. No serious analyst would lump Bitcoin in with fiat currencies. Why? Because fiat currencies are backed by government decree, used for tax payments, and can be issued ad infinitum by central authorities. Bitcoin ticks none of those boxes. It’s decentralized, with no central authority to pump out new units or demand its use for official transactions. Bitcoin is as far from fiat as you can get.
Regarding the Bank of England’s founding in 1694—let’s get our facts straight. It wasn’t about credit; it was about waging a war without the cash to back it up. This move marked a turning point, expanding the empire and cementing the British Pound as a reserve currency. This kind of dynamic isn’t ancient history; it’s alive and well, fueling today’s massive military expenditures. These are bankrolled by the fiat system’s ability to inflate currency and issue debt. And when fiat currencies collapse? It’s usually the losers of these conflicts who feel the burn. So, yeah, Bitcoin offers a real alternative to this endless cycle of warfare and financial manipulation.
