      "body": "<center><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-52904\" src=\"http://shtfplan.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/blockchain-adoption.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"560\" height=\"309\" /></center>\n\nAdvances in blockchain technologies and peer-to-peer cryptocurrencies are sweeping the world and will soon become embedded in just about every aspect of our lives. In recent years all the talk has been about Bitcoin, probably the one cryptocurrency that just about everyone connected to the global internet is aware of. But there are other powerful technologies waiting in the wings and they stand to transform everything from banking and payment systems to supply management and privacy.\n\nAccording to <strong><a href=\"https://cryptocoingrowth.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Crypto Coin Growth</a> </strong>in a recent interview with <strong><a href=\"http://futuremoneytrends.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Future Money Trends</a></strong>, there will be one standout currency that will soon see explosive growth which could be on par with the massive price increases we recently saw in Bitcoin and Ethereum.\n\n<blockquote>A bitcoin is one of those matriarch things that came in... but Bitcoin will be shelved as just a unit of measurement.\n<br><br>\nThat's the way it's going to end up being... <strong>in terms of commerce Litecoin will pretty much be the dominant factor.</strong>\n<br><br>\n<strong>It's fast, it's already on the Lightning network, it's already being utilized in countries right now to where you can go and buy a Subway sandwich with Litecoin.</strong>\n<br><br>\nThe problem with Bitcoin is the fees are way to high and it's way too slow and cumbersome... which is fine... everything serves its purpose... they know the problem is there and they're trying to resolve it... but eventually the crypto space and the world is going to move way too fast for them to wait... and the next thing in line will be Litecoin.</blockquote>\n\n<strong>Watch the full interview:</strong>\n\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/f63JEilpDoY\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>\n<strong><em>(<a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f63JEilpDoY\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Watch at Youtube</a>)</em></strong></p>\nWhile some have called Bitcoin and blockchain in general a bubble of epic proportions, comparisons have also been made to the advent of the internet. Many didn't understand how this budding technology of the 1990's would change our lives, nor did they care much about how it worked. But slowly it gained mass adoption.\n\nThe same will be true for blockchain:\n<blockquote>We're probably back in 1991 or 1994 where some people have heard about it but most people who know about this space are either developers or people who have sought to stay out of the Matrix... Most of the populous are very much complacent...\n<br><br>\nIf you go mention this to most people, maybe they've heard of Bitcoin but not in the best light... But if you mentioned anything like either Ripple or Stellar or DeCred most people are like \"what?\"\n<br><br>\nWe're in the shadows when it comes to that kind of stuff... <strong>Give the rest of the world in about two years and everyone's going to go \"wow, this new thing.\"</strong></blockquote>\n\nThough as of yet unknown to most people, cryptocurrencies are becoming so popular as a medium of exchange that more and more merchants are beginning to accept them as forms of payment for physical merchandise online. And investor interest around the world continues to build. One can even purchase some of the more popular digital currencies in a <strong><a href=\"https://www.cryptoira.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Crypto IRA</a> </strong>for long-term retirement growth.\n\nAnd if the growth and technological advancement we've seen over the last three decades on the internet is any guide as to what we might expect over the next five, ten or twenty years, digital assets and currencies with real world use cases and utility could be as big as some of the largest web-centered companies in the world today.\n\n<strong>Originally published at <a href=\"http://www.shtfplan.com/\">SHTFplan.com</a></strong>",

According to venture capital financier Carlo Civelli, there are varying reasons for why mining companies involved in commodity metals like copper, zinc, gold and silver have been either stagnant or seen disproportionate drops in their market value versus broader stocks, but one in particular stands out as of late:\n<blockquote><strong>The exploration stocks are just not attracting the following that they used and the reason for that could be the whole blockchain and Bitcoin mania... which is diverting a lot of speculative money from what used to be the commodities markets.</strong></blockquote>\nAnd while we're likely to see continued interest in crypto currencies over coming years, Civelli notes that recent political developments in the United States, as well as favorable supply demand fundamentals, suggest that 2018 will be a breakout year for commodities markets after having hit cyclical lows. In an <strong><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wC2lLLVzJNQ\" target=\"_blank\">interview with Future Money Trends</a></strong>, Civelli says that <strong>President Trump's tax cuts have shifted the global balance and may have postponed any serious economic problems for another ten years. </strong>\n<blockquote><strong>The United States has become the tax haven of the world. </strong></blockquote>\nCoupled with Trump's trillion dollar infrastructure plan, the widespread tone of economic optimism across the global economy explains why Civelli has been <strong><a href=\"https://www.futuremoneytrends.com/zinc\" target=\"_blank\">aggressively gobbling up mining stocks</a></strong> (and he's not talking about digital blockchain mining):\n<center><iframe src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/wC2lLLVzJNQ\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></center>\n\n<blockquote>We could be at a reversal of the dollar to the downside, which is obviously due to all the tax cuts. The lower dollar will stimulate growth but at the same time the interest rates may not go up as much as everybody thinks... so the dollar could go lower... and <strong>that could lead to an opposite extreme...</strong>\n<br><br>\nIn other words... tax cuts and a lower dollar should mean commodities go up... and we're also looking at a very favorable supply/demand condition where you can see the commodities copper and zinc are sneaking up and mining stocks are not really following yet.\n<br><br>\n...We are looking at a very good 2018 in commodities... and also on the gold side, gold stocks should really start to follow the gold price more accurately.</blockquote>\nAnd while Civelli's believes that Trump's tax cats could provide a significant boost to the U.S. economy in the near-term, the long-term outlook may not be so positive:\n<blockquote>By lowering the tax rate to 21% you obviously stimulate growth... but at the same time Europe seems very distant with tax rates of over 35% or higher. So the [U.S.] economy is going to continue to boom...<strong> but what Trump has really done is he has postponed the debt problem for the next 10 years or so...</strong> Trump is saying the economies of the world, in particular the United States, will grow out of this problem...\n<br><br>\nI don't think that's going to happen because one day when the interest rates go back to normal... <strong>the debts will still be there...</strong></blockquote>\nAnd what will save investors when that time finally comes?\n<blockquote><strong>As we all who invest in commodities believe...  ultimately you will have to have some gold in your portfolio to protect against all this... it's not going to end well. </strong></blockquote>\n<em>Visit <a href=\"https://www.futuremoneytrends.com\" target=\"_blank\">Future Money Trends</a> for more market commentary, trend insights and interviews like the one you just watched.</em>\n<br><br>\n<em>Learn more about Carlo Civelli and his <a href=\"https://callinex.ca/team/\" target=\"_blank\">latest mining projects</a></em>\n<br><br>\n<strong>This article originally appeared at <a href=\"http://www.shtfplan.com\">SHTFplan.com</a></strong>",

Now one YouTuber has the guts to say it and boldly declares that those same globalists will blame bitcoin for a biblical level financial collapse.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpf2Lxgf10AjzBT4GIIgDJw\" target=\"_blank\">The Dollar Vigilante YouTube channel</a> isn't walking on eggshells in their video titled <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74A4VUC4t_A\" target=\"_blank\">\"The Globalist Plan To Blame Bitcoin For Biblical Level Collapse.\"</a> The video starts off with a harsh dose of reality that many won't like:</p>\n\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">They won't teach you in your government schools but <strong>every major economic and financial collapse is planned. </strong>It doesn't happen by accident. <a href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74A4VUC4t_A\" target=\"_blank\"><em> - Jeff Berwick, The Dollar Vigilante</em></a></p>\n</blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><iframe src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/74A4VUC4t_A\" width=\"560\" height=\"333\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Berwick doesn't mince words later either, and he says that the government and other globalists <a href=\"http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/tis-the-season-for-false-flags-the-elites-need-to-control-bitcoin_12142017\" target=\"_blank\">already have plans to collapse the economy and blame Bitcoin.</a> Mike Adams,<a href=\"http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/tis-the-season-for-false-flags-the-elites-need-to-control-bitcoin_12142017\" target=\"_blank\"> the Health Ranger has also stated that the elitists</a> need to control Bitcoin in order to control humanity, so look for a false flag terror attack allegedly funded by the now infamous decentralized cryptocurrency.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\"By any measure, we are not at the most extreme time in history in money, finance, banking, equities, bonds, real estate and other sectors,\" says Berwick. \"We've never seen money printing across the board like we've seen in the last decade. Interest rates are at record lows and even at ludicrous negative rates in some countries. They've never been lower in 5000 years. By any measure, the US stock market is at or past extremes.\" Along with the US government's debt doubling in the last 8 years to a whopping $21 trillion, Berwick says that this is just the symptom of a government and globalist manufactured economic collapse that will all have to \"come crashing down.\"</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\"As always, I look for the clues directly from those who currently control the world, for the answers,\" says Berwick. He then points to a Rothschild owned economic magazine that foretells in its 1988 cover image that 2018 will be the year of the global currency. \"How could the globalist bankers plan 30 years ahead for a massive change in the monetary system?\" Berwick asks. \"Well, look no further than Bilderberg.\"</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Why? \"Because most of the power in the hands of the elites now rests in their control over the issuance of currency which they cannot control with Bitcoin,\" Berwick continues. \"Instead, what their game plan might be, is to put trillions of dollars into Bitcoin to blow it up to massive extremes.\" Berwick then goes on to quote other financial an market experts, such as Jamie Dimon of JP Morgan, who all say Bitcoin will cross the $60,000 -$100,000  threshold before the collapse.</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">But Bewick also says that one the state gets control of the cryptocurrency, no other cryptocurrency will be allowed to coexist. <strong>The game plan is for Bitcoin to crash, either by design or under its own weight so that the global elitists and governments can implement their own cryptocurrency, and again control the supply of currency. </strong></p>\n\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Some crackpots on the internet believe Bitcoin is globalist invention. They clearly don't understand power, control, or what Bitcoin is. If they did, they'd know that Bitcoin is the antidote to the new world order, not the gateway. -Jeff Berwick</p>\n\n</blockquote>\n\nVia <a href=\"http://www.shtfplan.com\">SHTfplan.com</a>",

He is an expert at <a href=\"http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/intelligence-insider-reveals-framework-of-the-next-world-war-this-is-how-you-have-to-think-about-escalation-and-end-games_05102014\" target=\"_blank\">escalation scenarios and end games</a>, and in a recent article at <a href=\"https://www.dailyreckoning.com.au/us-attack-north-korea-march/2017/12/19/\" target=\"_blank\">The Daily Reckoning</a> he warns that the geopolitical situation on the Korean Peninsula will soon come to a head.\n\nAccording to Rickards, author of <a href=\"http://amzn.to/2n7SabU\" target=\"_blank\">The Road To Ruin: The Global Elites Secret Plan For The Next Financial Crisis</a><strong>, </strong>while the world concerns itself with stock bubbles, bitcoin and debt, the most imminent threat we face is military confrontation with North Korea.\n\nAnd while the rogue state has been an ongoing  threat for many years, the first half of 2018 will likely see the trigger that sets the whole powder keg off:\n<blockquote>The most important financial or geopolitical issue in the world today is a coming war between the U.S. and North Korea, probably in the next twelve weeks.\n<br><br>\n<strong>How can I be so sure about the timing? The Director of the Central Intelligence Agency told me.</strong>\n<br><br>\nIn a private conclave in Washington DC on October 20, 2017, CIA Director Mike Pompeo told a small think tank group (including me) that <strong>it would be imprudent to assume it would take North Korea more than ‘five months’ to have a reliable arsenal of nuclear-armed ICBM missiles. These could strike U.S. cities and kill millions of Americans.</strong>\n<br><br>\nFive months from October 20, 2017 is March 20, 2018. <strong>That’s an outside date but the war will likely begin before then.</strong>\n<br><br>\nThat would create an element of surprise — and avoid the surprise of a faster than expected deployment of strategic weapons by North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.\n<br><br>\n<em>Source: <a href=\"https://www.dailyreckoning.com.au/us-attack-north-korea-march/2017/12/19/\" target=\"_blank\">The Daily Reckoning</a> via <a href=\"http://survivalandprosperity.com/2017/12/20/james-rickards-war-with-north-korea-will-likely-begin-before-march-20-2018/\" target=\"_blank\">Survival and Prosperity</a></em></blockquote>\nInterestingly, a very similar <a href=\"http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/ww3-china-mobilizes-military-warns-of-war-with-north-korea-by-march_12182017\" target=\"_blank\">timeline was put forth by Chinese General</a> Wang Gongguang, who indicated that hostilities could break out at anytime between now and March.\n\nAs Rickards highlights in his report, the United States has coexisted with other nuclear powers like Russia and China without any serious incidents since the Cuban Missile Crisis in the early 1960's. But North Korea is different, because unlike these nuclear super powers, Kim Jong Un has repeatedly threatened the destruction of the United States and killing millions of people in the process.\n\nSome have suggested that Kim may be bluffing, but what if he isn't?\n\nThe Trump administration has made it crystal clear that they are prepared to call the bluff and a nuclear armed North Korea, especially one with ICMB's capable of striking major U.S. cities, will not be allowed. Rickards continues:\n<blockquote>We relied on deterrence, containment, sanctions, diplomacy, and eventually arms treaties to avoid a nuclear war.

One striking example of just how easily the most popular blockchains in the world can become clogged to the point of near paralysis is CryptoKitties. The popular app was <a href=\"https://cryptovest.com/news/cryptokitties-burn-up-15-of-ethereums-gas/\" target=\"_blank\">developed on top of the Ethereum blockchain</a> and reportedly utilized as much as 15% of the entire network's processing power as users feverishly birthed, bred and traded digital cats online, leading to <a href=\"http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-12-06/people-are-plowing-millions-%E2%80%98cryptokitties%E2%80%99-and-breeding-them\" target=\"_blank\">hours-long transaction delays</a> across the network.\n\nThe rise in popularity of crypto currencies has been a blessing and a curse. <a href=\"http://www.shtfplan.com/headline-news/its-not-a-bubble-its-a-mass-adoption-says-blockchain-mining-chairman_12212017\" target=\"_blank\">Mass user adoption</a>, while necessary to take this technology to the next level, has also had a negative impact on first- and second-generation underlying blockchain networks, user experience and the centralized exchanges that process trades.\n\nEnter the \"fastest decentralized blockchain in the world.\"\n\n<a href=\"https://www.forbes.com/sites/rogeraitken/2017/11/08/waves-set-to-become-fastest-decentralized-blockchain-platform-globally/#6d28d61938b6\" target=\"_blank\">Via Forbes</a>:\n<blockquote><strong><a href=\"http://www.wavesplatform.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Waves</a> is implementing new technology to enable the network to process thousands of transactions per minute and become what is claimed as the \"fastest decentralized blockchain\" platform in the world.</strong>\n<br><br>\nThe innovation is touted as bringing blockchain technology to the “next level of evolution”, enabling the platform that was the brainchild of a Moscow-based physicist to compete with mainstream payment processors and to achieve mass-market adoption.</blockquote>\n<p>On Friday <a href=\"https://wavesplatform.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Waves</a>, which ICO'd in 2016 and built a decentralized (and thus free from government regulation) platform for trading crypto currencies and launching new tokens <a href=\"http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-08-25/burger-king-russia-introduces-whoppercoin-fast-food-industrys-first-digital-currency\" target=\"_blank\">like Burger King's WhopperCoin</a>, activated their Waves-NG (Next Generation) hard fork. The NG blockchain technology was originally <a href=\"http://hackingdistributed.com/2015/10/14/bitcoin-ng/\" target=\"_blank\">proposed by Cornell University’s Emin Gün Sirer</a> for the Bitcoin blockchain but was never adopted. Waves CEO Sasha Ivanov, however, did adopt the technology and after months of development, open beta stress testing with 3000 users over millions of transactions and near total network miner consensus, the NG protocol is now active on the Waves blockchain.</p>\n\n<p>To put the wide-reaching implication of this update into perspective, consider that Bitcoin has a tx/s (transactions per second) capability of about 3 transactions, while Ethereum is a bit faster at 12 tx/s. Now consider the millions of transactions (including Crypto Kitties) that are being requested by these networks on a daily basis and you can see why there are reported backlogs of literally hundreds of thousands of transactions and why sometimes it can take upwards of 8 hours to send crypto currencies from one address to another.</p>\n\nThe Waves-NG blockchain is running at 100 transactions per second, or about 6,000 per minute and has been stress tested to scale as high as 1,000 transactions per second. That's <strong>8.6 million transactions per day</strong> with scalability to 86 million should the need ever arise, making it the only open, active and decentralized blockchain in the world capable of meeting the extreme demands of a rapidly evolving crypto landscape.\n<blockquote>\n<p >Waves-NG is based on the Bitcoin-NG proposal made by Cornell University’s Emin Gün Sirer. Instead of pending transactions being added to a block retrospectively, as in bitcoin’s system, the next miner is chosen in advance. The miner is then able to add transactions to the block as fast as network latency allows — almost in real-time.</p>\n<p >Along with optimisations for a proof-of-stake system, this approach will allow Waves to process around 6,000 transactions per minute. This increase in capacity is absolutely vital if Waves is to support the kind of mass-market applications for which it was designed. Moreover, this is only a starting point. Further upgrades are expected to take the capacity of the blockchain closer to 1,000 tx/second in the future — without factoring in the effect of any off-chain transactions.</p>\n<p><em><strong>Source: <a href=\"https://blog.wavesplatform.com/waves-ng-goes-live-on-mainnet-e75e997f4baf\" target=\"_blank\">Waves Platform</a></strong></em></p>\n</blockquote>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--p\">While Waves' market cap of around $1.5 billion is dwarfed by those of Bitcoin and Ethereum, its decentralized cryptocurrency trading platform, <a href=\"https://beta.wavesplatform.com/\" target=\"_blank\">multi-currency mobile and desktop wallets</a>, one-minute token creation engine, per second transaction processing capacity, and smart contracts scheduled for deployment in early 2018 show just how far the blockchain has come in a couple of years.</p>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--p\">Bitcoin and Ethereum, while revolutionary, are simply not capable of supporting the instantaneous transaction confirmations required for mass adoption by millions of users who not only trade cryptocurrencies, but utilize applications built on top of these networks.</p>\n<p class=\"graf graf--p graf-after--p\">Technologies being implemented by next generation platforms like Waves, however, ensure that the next time a popular application like Crypto Kitties comes online, we don't have to worry about it bringing down the entirety of its underlying global network.</p>\n\nVia <a href=\"http://www.shtfplan.com\">SHTFplan.com</a>",

      "body": "<center><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-52904\" src=\"http://shtfplan.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/blockchain-adoption.jpg\" alt=\"blockchain-adoption\" width=\"560\" height=\"309\" /></center>\n\nWith cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum having seen exponential price increases throughout 2017 it's easy to suggest the entire crypto space is in an epic bubble. And while in the short-term this may be true with wild price springs occurring on a regular basis, what 2017 has proven is that more and more individuals and institutions around the world are getting interested. In fact, so much so that Coinbase, one of the most popular crypto currency exchanges in the United States, saw more client accounts created in three years than brokerage firm Charles Schwab has seen in thirty.\n\nThis, according to <strong><a href=\"https://www.hiveblockchain.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Hive Blockchain Technologies</a></strong> Chairman Frank Holmes in a recent interview with <strong><a href=\"http://www.futuremoneytrends.com/bitcoin\" target=\"_blank\">Future Money Trends</a></strong>, is indicative not of a bubble, but rather, a mass adoption. Holmes notes that proof of this adoption comes from the fact that Genesis Mining, one of the largest global blockchain mining leasing firms, recently ran out of mining server space in their massive facility. As well, there is incredible demand as evidenced by Coinbase and other exchanges, especially now that millennials see blockchain as the future of the internet.\n<blockquote><em>Holmes:</em> Coinbase is where most people in America go to open an account... I was just overwhelmed by the staggering data point that in three years they've gone to 13 million accounts... It took 30 years for Schwab to get to 10 million.\n<br><br>\n<em>Future Money Trends:</em> So, when you see that kind of movement and adoption... when people see the parabolic move the outsider is saying \"bubble, bubble, bubble\" ...<strong> but is this really not a bubble... just a mass adoption?</strong>\n<br><br>\n<em>Holmes:</em> <strong>I totally agree... You've got to look at the simple math of this... </strong>the maximum amount of Bitcoins is 21 million... it's been estimated that a quarter are lost... the float is about 10 million... If you look at a law called Metcalfe's Law...<strong> it basically says that as more people use a platform, the value of each constituent goes up exponentially...</strong> it happened with cable and the same thing happened with cell phones... and now we're seeing it with Bitcoin.\n<br><br>\n...

Some estimates suggest that the current $600 billion or so total market cap of all cryptocurrencies combined will soon be dwarfed by the trillions of dollars expected to move into the space.

After months of mixed signals from governments around the world regarding regulations, Lakestone Bank and Trust customer <a href=\"https://www.facebook.com/groups/Ethereum/permalink/1393594610766582/?hc_location=ufi\" target=\"_blank\">Jordan Spencer took to Facebook</a> to post a letter he received on December 14th threatening to close his account for a policy violation.\n\nWhat violation, you ask?\n\nAccording to the letter (pasted below), Spencer has been utilizing the widely popular Coinbase website to make cryptocurrency purchases and deposits tied to his personal bank account. This, says loss prevention officer Louise Vermillion,  is a policy violation that needs to be \"discontinued immediately.\"\n\nThe full letter from the bank has been made available below:\n\n<center><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-52826\" src=\"http://shtfplan.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/lakestone1.jpg\" alt=\"lakestone1\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" /></center>\n\n<center><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-52827\" src=\"http://shtfplan.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/lakestone2.jpg\" alt=\"lakestone2\" width=\"347\" height=\"649\" /></center>\n\nThe response, according to Spencer, was swift and brutal, with scores of users taking to the bank's rating page and pummeling it from its previous 3.5 rating score on Facebook to 1.1 in less than seven hours:\n\n<center><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-52828\" src=\"http://shtfplan.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/lakestone3.jpg\" alt=\"lakestone3\" width=\"450\" height=\"114\" /></center>\n\n<center><img class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-52829\" src=\"http://shtfplan.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/lakestone4.jpg\" alt=\"lakestone4\" width=\"427\" height=\"415\" /></center>\n\nApparently, as is often the case with governments and banks, they're the only ones that know what YOU should be doing with YOUR OWN MONEY. And they'll shut down your account if that's what it takes to make sure you're protected.\n\nGet more daily news and commentary at <a href=\"http://www.shtfplan.com\">SHTFplan.com</a>",
