What No One Told You About Zuckerberg's Privacy Testimony
[featured-img] As cringe-worthy as Mark Zuckerberg’s water-sipping testimony was last week on Capitol Hill, nothing can top how uncomfortably ignorant those parasitical politicians revealed themselves to be about… well, the internet. The whole damn hearing was a charade proving exactly why the State is utterly incapable of effectively regulating private industries, for better or worse. Take…
Read MoreBitcoin Hater George Soros Finally Admits He Wants In On Crypto
[featured-img] America’s favorite power broker, the evil bloated Ringwraith himself, George Soros, is now poised to invest in cryptocurrency, despite trashing Bitcoin just a few months ago. In addition to calling Bitcoin a “bubble”, Soros ironically stated that digital currencies are a tool for dictators: As long as you have dictatorships on the rise, you…
Read MoreA ‘Cashless Society' Where Bitcoin Trades at 50-100% Premium [VIDEO]
[featured-img] Since the mainstream media puts out nothing except lies and propaganda about what is happening in the world… particularly in Syria at the moment… Luke Rudkowski of We Are Change and myself have somewhat taken it upon ourselves to go to as many places as possible and actually tell you what is really…
Read MoreLuckbox Mark Cuban Hates Bitcoin And Gold, The Two Best-Performing Assets
[featured-img] I was around for the 1990s tech bubble and the most shocking deal I remember from that time period was when Mark Cuban sold what was basically just a domain name, Broadcast.com, along with some recording equipment he had at home, for $5.7 billion to Yahoo in April of 1999! At the time, I was…
Read MoreUnited Slaves of America – Jeff Berwick On Free & Equal, Upcoming Speaking Events
I just finished an important conversation with Christina Tobin of Free & Equal who is organizing the United We Stand festival that I’ll be speaking at this April 29th. We got into where things are currently standing monetarily, financially, economically and politically. Our discussion then dives into some of the best ways to not just survive, but…
Read MoreThe 85th Anniversary of Gold Confiscation In The USSA (And Satoshi's Birthday)
[featured-img] One of the worst years in the history of fasco-communist USSA history was 1913, when both the income extortion tax was instituted, and the private Federal Reserve banking cartel took control of the US government. 1933 was the next worst year, since after the Federal Reserve caused the Great Depression, they then used…
Read MoreAnti-Gun, Pro War, Big Government Trump Attacks Private Enterprise
[featured-img] Donald Trump has declared war on the free market, taking to Twitter again to bash Amazon for doing what he infamously and righteously did for decades: avoid paying extortion. It seems Darth Hater is hellbent on forcing the wildly-successful e-retailer to fork up their profits because they used the notoriously inefficient and bankrupt…
Read MoreDOOM: The Dollar And The Fed's Days Are Numbered [VIDEO]
[featured-img] Back when I first launched The Dollar Vigilante around 2010, I basically predicted that all fiat currencies would collapse by the end of the decade. As 2020 looms, my prediction seems to be holding up quite well—and the rise of cryptocurrency is just another signal of the market's desperate need for an alternative…
Read MoreAnarchapulco: Humble Origins, Promising Future [VIDEO]
[featured-img] During Anarchapulco 2018, I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Carmen Carangi for The State of Anarchy. Our wide-ranging discussion covers the humble beginnings and rapid growth of Anarchapulco, which has broken another record this year with over 1,500 attendees. We also talk about my journey into Bitcoin back in 2011 when an…
Read MoreYou Won't Believe What We Saw In Mogadishu, Somalia [VIDEO]
While in Somalia, I participated in a sort of mini-documentary on the experience there with Luke Rudkowski of We Are Change. We were only there for two days… and for good reason. It was probably the least comfortable place I’ve ever been, as bombs were going off regularly right around us and machine gun fire…
Read MoreThey Said “You Want Anarchy? Go To Somalia” — So I Did (VIDEO)
As a very outspoken anarchist, one of the biggest replies I get when I try to explain that people shouldn’t be slaves and should own themselves is, “If you like that so much you should move to Somalia!” So, okay, I'm here now. But, I don’t know why they told me to come here. As…
Read MoreThe “King of Debt” Just Broke The National Debt Record
Donald Trump, the reality TV star and self-described “King of Debt” turned president, is living up to his schizophrenic reputation, as the US national debt just surpassed $21 trillion. (National Debt Clock – 3/21/2018) It's a sadly predictable about-face compared to how Trump sounded back in 2016: So far, though, Agent Orange hasn't managed to…
Read MorePutin Flip-Flops Like A Drunken Whore On Cryptocurrency Legalization
Whenever I am asked, “How should governments treat cryptocurrencies” my general response is the following. Who cares? You might as well ask me what the Japanese Yakuza or Mexican cartels should do about cryptos. I don’t really care. Not that the Yakuza or the cartels are anywhere near as bad as governments. I apologize to…
Read MoreDoes The Stupid Ever Stop? South Africa To Copy Zimbabwe Model To ‘Prosperity'
Doesn’t South Africa have the internet yet? Or, even books? The new South African finance minister, Nhlanhla Nene, has just come out with an amazing plan to help the people! He will devalue their money into worthlessness! This always works out well. Nhlanhla has proposed an “ingenious” new plan to help the country's impoverished black…
Read MorePayPal Grovels To Patent Office In Desperate Bid To Exploit Cryptocurrency
PayPal has just filed a patent with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) for an “Expedited Virtual Currency Transactions System.” The irony of using the state to create a legal monopoly for a crypto-innovation is not lost on me, but it’s no surprise given all we know about PayPal. After all, it was PayPal…
Read MoreOne Year Ago Bitcoin Surpassed Gold In Value Per Unit… Look At How Things Have Changed!
This time last year, we published an article titled “Bitcoin Is Now Good As Gold, Actually It’s Better”. Now, this was back when a single bitcoin traded around $1,280. There were quite a few haters back then who commented on the vblog we did for that same article saying these things: In…
Read MoreUber Co-Founder's Weird Coin Promises “A Sustainable World”
Known for co-founding Uber, StumbleUpon, and also founding the venture fund Expa, Garrett Camp is now trying his hand at cryptocurrency – but perhaps he should stick to what he already does well. Announced on March 1, Camp has launched “ECO” coin, a digital global currency that can be used as a payment tool for everyday…
Read MoreThe Economy Is Failing, Crypto Is A Threat To The Banking System – Jeff Berwick On The X22 Report
I just went on the X22 Report to talk about a number of different things including firstly, the illusion that is the US economic “recovery” and the so-called “draining of the swamp” by selected president Donald Trump. Of course, there has been no recovery, and Trump did drain the swamp…before filling it back up with…
Read MoreBitcoin To Replace The Dollar And Gold? Jeff Berwick On Crush The Street
I just did an interview with Crush The Street about how well this year’s Anarchapulco conference went, as well as the status of the cryptocurrency markets. Before I even knew about bitcoin and cryptocurrency, I said the market would provide a solution to the disaster that is the current fiat-based monetary system. Not long after…
Read MoreCrypto, Growth, EOS, & More! – Jeff Berwick with Crypt0 @ Anarchapulco
At Anarchapulco, I did an interview with Crypt0 about my view of the current state of affairs within the cryptocurrency and financial markets. I got to talking about how to maintain your concentration with so many new crypto’s, tokens, and other investment opportunities constantly arising and how to differentiate between scams like Bitconnect and actual,…
