POOF SAID
A few underground shifts have occurred and the banks involved are striking out to hold onto what they can and to try and keep what is possible and especially by people who won’t raise that much of a ruckus.
The ground is literally sifting underneath your feet. Stop and be with it, pay attention, listen to your insides, get the weather updates every morning and try hard to not be part of the problem.
With MAJOR change comes much chaos and confusion…..hang in there. The Best Is Yet to Come !!!!!

DID YOU KNOW?
What is the reality of transitioning all global currencies to tier one asset-backed status? The endeavor will require a multifaceted approach, addressing economic stability, resource availability, and international cooperation. The core of this transformation will lie in the availability of raw materials to serve as the foundational assets, ensuring the backing is both credible and sustainable. The off-ledger gold hoards represented in the historical bonds is a good start but for the concept to be sustainable future extraction of raw materials will be needed.
For any currency to achieve tier one status, it must inspire confidence among global investors and stakeholders. Historically, gold has served as the standard for asset-backed currencies due to its intrinsic value and universal acceptance. However, gold alone cannot support the entire global economy. Diversifying the assets backing these currencies will be essential. This includes other precious metals like silver and platinum, industrial metals such as copper and lithium, and even commodities like oil and agricultural products.
The critical challenge in this transition is the availability and equitable distribution of these raw materials. Gold reserves, while substantial, are limited and unevenly distributed across nations. To ensure a fair and effective asset-backed system, the financial community must identify and agree upon a diversified basket of assets. This diversification mitigates the risk of any single asset’s volatility impacting the global economy.
Key commodities such as lithium, essential for the blossoming electric vehicle market, and copper, crucial for electrical infrastructure, are likely candidates. However, their extraction and production, as with other possible minerals, could pose environmental and geopolitical challenges. Sustainable mining practices and international agreements on resource sharing is a key function in ensuring these assets can reliably back currencies without exacerbating environmental degradation or geopolitical tensions.
Achieving a universally accepted asset-backed currency system necessitates massive international cooperation. Establishing a global governance framework to oversee and regulate the asset-backing process will be crucial. This body would have to be responsible for setting standards, monitoring compliance, and arbitrating disputes. Such an organization could be modeled after existing institutions like the International Monetary Fund (IMF) or the World Bank but with a more focused mandate on asset-backed currencies.
Advancements in blockchain and digital ledger technologies (DLT’s) offer solutions for transparency and traceability. These technologies would ensure that the backing assets are verifiable and secure, reducing the risk of fraud and enhancing trust in the system. Implementing a blockchain-based tracking system for assets could provide real-time data on reserves, ensuring that all participating nations adhere to agreed-upon standards.
Transitioning to an asset-backed currency system also requires addressing environmental and social impacts. Sustainable practices in resource extraction and production must be prioritized to avoid ecological damage. Equitable resource distribution and fair labor practices to prevent exploitation and ensure that all countries benefit from this new financial paradigm will have to find a mandatory status.
The global financial community and governments will have to willingly collaborate, to create a resilient and trustworthy asset-backed currency system that can underpin the future of global commerce. This redefines the term “herding cats”. To get all these various egos and governance types singing off the same sheet of music, it better be one seriously sweet song.
