Hello everyone!

Welcome to the seventh edition of my newsletter! Every Saturday I’ll be sending out a quick newsletter on how to master crypto. I write about mindset, trends and analysis.

Today, I focus on the WEF and CBDCs.

The real war is behind the scenes

Greed and sex rule the world. And for years, the super-rich have waged a war against the rest. We must confront this truth.

What truly dictates the course of the world, what has truly triggered the wars in recent years, and what truly lies behind all these organizations of the super-rich is greed.

Let's take a look at these two graphics: the distribution of wealth in the world. Roughly speaking, the richest 1% owns half of the wealth, while half of the world's population owns only 1% of the wealth.

And the trend is moving towards further exacerbating this situation. These are the facts. And if we understand how capitalism works, it is also a logical development, as more money begets even more money.

Before we delve into the WEF and CBDCs consider this:

The connections of the WEF

In 2005, the Forum established the community of Young Global Leaders (YGL). It evolved from the community of Global Leaders of Tomorrow, which existed from 1993 to 2003.

YGL members are young leaders representing various sectors and disciplines from all parts of the world. They are appointed for a six-year term and must be under the age of 40 at the time of appointment.

Today they are sitting in the government of every big country.

And every major company is a partner of the WEF.

The Great Reset and the Forth Industrial Revolution

It’s a huge topic so here’s a brief introduction of two main concepts of the WEF that aim to shape the future of our global society.

The Great Reset envisions a comprehensive transformation of economic, social, and environmental systems to address the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century.

At the heart of the Great Reset is the recognition that our current systems are no longer sustainable or equitable. It calls for a fundamental reevaluation of how we organize our economies, invest in technology, and prioritize social and environmental goals. The COVID-19 pandemic has served as a catalyst, highlighting the need for resilience, adaptability, and inclusive growth.

Parallel to the Great Reset, the Fourth Industrial Revolution is a term coined by the WEF to describe the fusion of technologies that is blurring the lines between physical, digital, and biological realms.

It encompasses emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, robotics, nanotechnology, biotechnology, and the Internet of Things. These transformative technologies have the potential to revolutionize industries, reshape labor markets, and redefine the way we live and interact.

The Fourth Industrial Revolution presents both opportunities and challenges. It can drive economic growth, enhance efficiency, and improve quality of life. However, it also raises concerns about job displacement, privacy, and ethical implications.

A future of plutocracy?

It is highly worthwhile to delve deeper into this topic. For now, let's just state the following: The technological revolution is on its way, and faster than many expect.

The integration of humans with computers through brain-implanted chips, AI, lab-grown food – all of this will have unimaginable effects on our daily lives and all of this happen within the next ten years. Additionally, the millions of climate refugees add another dimension to consider.

The world's super-rich have long been positioning themselves to maximize their gains from this development.

Parallel to these shifts, we are witnessing changes in global politics and the diminishing significance of the dollar. Let's just say this: In the coming years and decades, there will be unrest.

It will become necessary for the elite to exert control over the population. What we are currently seeing in China in terms of surveillance is a preview of what will become reality in many countries in the future. And this, finally, brings us to the topic of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs).

Central bank digital currencies (CBDCs)

CBDCs are digital forms of national currencies issued and regulated by central banks. They are designed to serve as a replacement for traditional physical cash.

Of course, electronic money has its advantages: it's faster, cheaper, and readily available everywhere.

However, the risks become apparent in light of what was just mentioned. Central banks (government bodies!) can distribute, freeze, or confiscate money at their discretion.

The state would have knowledge of every purchase and transaction.

Freedom and anonymity would only exist in the black market, while the control of the elites over the common people would be maximized.

After all, what can one do without money in today's world? Who can truly provide for themselves with food nowadays?

Together with the takeover of control in the food sector (where grain fields and lab-produced goods have long been monopolized and patented (!) by a few players), CBDCs are the ultimate tool of control.

This enables possibilities and societal forms that we can barely imagine yet.
