There is NO WAY the gubmint will allow money they can't trace and seize to flow around. The rumor I'm hearing is "The Great Reset" is coming where all Americans money is seized and replaced with a Cyrpto account under the governments control. NO MORE CASH!! You won't be able to buy and sell unless you barter privately. This way they can follow what you buy and sell in DC and regulate the way they want. Medicare has already looked into a plan to monitor your food purchases to keep diabetics from buying Blue Bell Ice cream and making sure your vegetable purchases meet a certain level. How about a family with 3 kids purchasing a gun without regulation? If they control your money, they control you. Crypto is just a knock off of "local script" from the Viet Nam days.
When the government spent millions trying to shut down the Silk Road I'm sure they started then figuring out how to keep track of people that could buy and sell slaves, guns, drugs, and even murder. They don't want a world where Kim Jung UN could sell a nuke on the dark web. Confiscating cash over $9999 was just a beginning.
HMMMmmm...
Now just where have I read something like this before?
Seems it was in a really old book.
