Ah, the idealism of youth! I cannot fail to admire your zeal, as well as your ideals, but confess I have had those beaten out of me during my decades of seeking to undertake to be free and prosperous in America.

Nietzsche said 'what does not kill us makes us stronger', but that isn't true at all. Ask any paraplegic. Ask folks with scarred lungs after surviving viral pneumonia, or after being shot or beaten during a protest, and being crippled for life. It's easy to think it's true, until you actually bear the scars of such adversity.

Then what you realize is that failing to prevent adversity from crippling you doesn't make you stronger at all.

Adversity you prevent from crippling you makes you stronger, and that requires defeating your adversaries by crippling them, or killing them, before they can cripple or kill you. Zeal and idealism are motivations, but unless they're supported by power and superior strategy, they'll just get you crippled.

Libra will not be good for crypto. It's a trap that legacy financial institutions will use to gain more power over most everyone by surveilling their transactions, possessing the power to turn off their accounts if they dare to speak against the government, or more relevantly, the banksters that run it, and ensure their taxes, fees, and fines cannot be unpaid or miscalculated.

FEDcoin will not be decentralized. It will be far more able to exert control over people, just as the 21 million fewer cell phone users in China today reveal. Those 21 million people were availed (forced) Alipay with which they could pay their rent, buy stuff online, and needed those phones to even be able to walk on the street after China mandated their citizens use the Health app that assigned them either red (infected), yellow (maybe), or green (clear) avatars, and only allowing those with green to travel now. Those 21 million people aren't free now. They're either crippled socially and financially after China turned off their accounts so they can't even sleep on the streets, or dead.

Banks, cops, judges, politicians, most lawyers, etc., are criminals, know they are criminals, and deliberately act to secure their power and wealth by committing crimes on purpose. ZuckerBorg is one of them, and his creation will be used for the purpose of increasing his and his allies wealth and power.

The miner consortiums that control BTC, it's inflation, and etc., aren't secure. Remember the day BTC crashed from it's high? Remember that was the day the BTC futures market began operating. Also remember transaction fees were as high as 25% at the time. You couldn't sell BTC to save your life. The banksters didn't need to invest one slim dime in BTC to crash it's value.

Don't underestimate them, and don't make the mistake of thinking they can't do permanent damage. I know this because I can barely walk today. This means I won't be leaping any barricades.
