[liberationtech] Cryptocurrency: War On Cash - Moving Fast Against You - NOT

[bo0od]

The current cash if it worth something then you can sell it regardless 
time or place,but guess what? you cant do that because its priceless 
piece of paper or fiber or cotton or mixed with colorful drawings like 
pyramids and eye of horus/osiris...etc nothing more or less (same issue 
with electronic/crypto currency).

The question is why and how come then we have these worthless piece of 
junk instead of gold?

Well this gonna lead to long journey of dirty history on the hopeless 
ppl... one of its scandals was on Nixon time if you ever heard of "Nixon 
Shock"

and you can go back further in history to check what was the origins of 
these papers, Before reaching to this time which was called "banknote".

> That first HumanEvents.com article was horrible, mostly just highly exaggerated opinions. It was often contradicted by it’s own links to sources.  It started with the "don’t let the media shame you" crap was just that- crap trying to create fear.  Whether it’s because the author really fears a cashless society or just wants to monetize eyeballs, I don’t know.

> Sure, we’re using less and less cash.  And sure, FinTech businesses would like a cashless society.  But there was no true evidence in the article that it’s happening.
> 
> And there seems to be a bit of a coin shortage, but the stores that the article says are refusing cash are not.  Plus, a dime is worth a bit less than a penny was when I was growing up 50 years ago.  We could easily do without pennies and nickels (could even make a quarter worth $0.30).  It’s weird that stores can give large discounts (sales) but not round the total down so pennies and nickels aren’t needed…
> 
> And no, cash is not worthless. All money, including gold and silver, only has value because people agree it does.  Yes, gold and silver have a different kind of value, but they’re not liquid…  And no, the government doesn’t control its value.  They wish they could.  Yes, government bail-outs and borrowing make the chance of inflation much larger and the value of a currency can plummet, but that’ll effect digital currency as well.
