If I was a conspiracy theorist, I would think this was deliberate to usher in a global, centralized digital currency.
You are 100% correct that is the outcome..
Yup. I think the entire global economy is really nothing like it appears to be. There is a lot of fraud and a lot of dark money and it's propped up in all kinds of ways which don't look like it's propping anything at all (ex. Send money to Ukraine because Russia invaded, but the money is really for FTX, but the money is really so that Republicans and Democrats in the US can elect people who are not MAGA. I mean: not obvious that that is what's going on, but that's what's going on.)
At some point, it will all switch over to a central digital system and it will already be so deeply entrenched that fighting it will be impossible.
Dang, color me conspiracy theorist.

YEP! Mark o the WEF Beast etc and so on. Colapse crappy “private” cryptos to make Gov’t mark of the Beast cryptos look good. _______ And I am not a bible thumper by any means.
Something does have a foul odor about it.
This has little to do with bitcoins or other make believe money. It was your common ordinary run of the mill fraud. Makes not difference if it was bitcoin, bank notes, investments, etc., it was simple fraud.
Ding ding ding ding! Yu nailed it EEGator. That is exactly the first thing that entered my mind...this is a complete set up for Biden to pull some economic fast hand that screws up all!
