Central Bank Digital Currencies, also known as CBDCs, are proposed digital currencies that some nations have already started rolling out. But unlike crypto, they won’t be decentralized. And even more worrying, they’ll be programmable, giving your government and their controllers (global corporations) the ability to change the way you use your money. Videos, documentaries, and links to learn more about the NWO Slavery System.

I’ve got lots of posts about Digital ID, but not a specific one for CBDC, so here is my scratchpad for CBDC specific links.

In this documentary, international experts such as Edward Snowden, Arno Wellens, and Catherine Austin Fitts express their serious concerns and criticisms. It compiles a range of facts and opinions, creating a shocking picture about the future of mankind. A crystal-clear narrative that can’t be ignored.

BIS - with CBDC, the Central Bank will have absolute control (1min)

BIS Chief Clip “with CBDC, the Central Bank will have absolute control”

Rumble | Telegram | What is the BIS?

“For example in cash we don’t know who is using a $100 bill […] a key difference with the CBDC is that the Central Bank will have absolute control on the rules and regulations that we determine the use of that expression of central bank liability, and also we will have the technology to enforce that.”

Report from the Bank of International Settlements (BIS) found that almost 90 percent of national central banks are planning to launch their own CBDC for release to the general public.

The biggest threat to our financial freedom – CBDC

25 November 2022 YouTube | Posts tagged “Sorelle Amore

This is how they’ll possibly take our financial freedom, via a CBDC. CBDC stands for Central Bank Digital Currency, and is a new form of digital money that is on the horizon for just about every nation on Earth.

CBDCs have already been launched fully in 11 countries, but are being tested in more than 100, including in nations that account for more than 95% of our planet’s total GDP. In other words, if a CBDC hasn’t hit your country yet, it very likely will soon. The criticism around CBDCs is that they will be used as the ultimate tool of surveillance and control, allowing governments to monitor citizens’ every move. However, the United States and the Netherlands are already implementing laws to do just that, potentially requiring new reporting standards on almost all transactions.

The truth is, there may not be a lot we can do to stop a CBDC from arriving in our nations. But we can refuse to use one when they arrive, if they are as terrible for financial freedom as many believe.

How long it’s been in the works and who is involved – the Digital ID agenda will lock us down long before the CBDCs – over 285 players and that’s not even all of them.

In this one-hour video, Catherine Austin Fitts and Corey Lynn discuss Corey’s 4-part report on the Global Landscape on Vaccine ID Passports, and get into the specifics on where this is headed, who the key players are, how far along they are with each agenda, and solutions for combatting this tyranny. This is about much more than just a “vaccine ID passport,” it is about getting you a QR code for a digital identity that will eventually go onto the blockchain where they will trace, track, and monitor your every move in order to control your health records, all personal records, housing, jobs, food, access to establishments, transportation, and the financial system. They want total control over you.

Central Bank Digital Currencies for Financial Inclusion: Risks and Rewards

YouTube 15 Oct 2022

“The smart contract would allow targeted policy functions, like welfare payments, consumption coupons, food stamps, etc.”

“With CBDCs, we can precisely control what people can and can’t own. Also, what kind of use this money can be programmed for, like food only.”

“because of this potential programmability, government agencies could precisely target support packages to the right people.”

“Those transaction data in terms of how many coffees I drink every day, where I buy coffee, do I use UBER every day and what kind of working hours I have.”

“Those non-traditional data can be very useful for financial service providers to give me a credit score and based on that credit score the service providers can give me a credit line without any face-to-face due diligence.”

Global Financial System Reset in Progress (Quick 5-point Summary)

(Brief summary from 2019 that you can explain to people not ready for a deep-dive, but this goes back decades…)

2019, August: there were multiple indicators that the Financial System was entering “crisis” and in August of that year, BlackRock published it’s “Going Direct” plan which has really laid the foundation to introduce Central Bank Digital Currency.

2019, September: Repo market crisis.

2019, OctoberEvent 201 (planning for a coronavirus pandemic)
The “novel coronavirus” is announced six weeks later and everything unfolds with implausible speed.

2020, October: The head of the International Monetary Fund, Kristalina Georgieva announced a new Bretton Woods Moment” which means “the largest overhaul of the international financial architecture since the end of WWII – (The Bretton Woods Conference took place in 1944, and it was about creating the new international financial architecture that would follow the end of World War II – it was where the IMF and the World Bank originated)

2021, April: IMF Head “vaccine policy “IS” economic policy.”

  • IMF Seminar: Debate on the Global Economy YouTube

“This year, next year, vaccine policy “IS” economic policy, and it is even a higher priority than the traditional tools of fiscal and monetary policy. Why? Because without it, we cannot turn the fate of the world economy around.” ~ Kristalina Georgieva, Head of IMF since its inception in 1944.

WHY would the IMF chief say the number one priority is “Vaccine” policy?

“Straight away, that tells you that there is a deep connection here between the “Vaccination Agenda” and what is going on in terms of International Finance”. ~ David A. Hughes: Senior Lecturer in International Relations at the University of Lincoln in the UK.

  5. Tucker Carlson
    • “there’s a new way to regulate every financial transaction that occurs in this country from something they call the Central Bank Digital Currency; CBDC – if that happens – “we’re done” – they can control you with the flip of a switch”
  6. Catherine Austin Fitts
    • “Under the cover of COVID-19, the bankers have decided they no longer want to share power with the electorate or the people […] with the level of debt the governments are in with the Central Bank, the central bank has decided to simply take-over, and the ultimate sort of “completion” of this, will be when they introduce digital currencies controlled and operated by the central bank […]
    • …there won’t be currencies, there will be a financial control system; to implement that system, they need the vaccine passport, and the goal of the vaccine passports have nothing to do with health; they have to do with a new digital financial transactions system which is in essence complete control – a Slavery System.”
    • How fast can they do this? “I think maybe a year, year and a half is the earliest; what they seem to be doing with the WHO Treaty and the vaccine passports is getting a complete control system in place before CBDC”
    • “FTX (crypto) was an Op, that got brought down in an Op. To say “hey, we need that regulation in place”. FTX was a CBDC marketing plan. It’s hard to market slavery…” (you have to make the people want it for their safety).
    • […] “There’s no law under a slavery system, if they want to take your kids, they will.”
    • “It’s a digital currency they control centrally, so the central bankers can make certain rules about what you can or cannot do with your money, and they can enforce the rules with total surveillance.”
  7. BIS (Bank for International Settlements) – Agustin Carstens, General Manager since 2017
    • “we tend to establish the equivalence with cash and there is a huge difference there. For example in cash we don’t know who is using a $100 bill […] a key difference with the CBDC is that the Central Bank will have absolute control on the rules and regulations that we determine the use of that expression of central bank liability, and also we will have the technology to enforce that. Those two issues are extremely important […] that makes a huge difference to what cash is.”
  8. Robert Kiyosaki (author of Rich Dad, Poor Dad)
    • “Biden signed Executive Order 14067 on March 9th, 2022. The most treacherous act by a sitting president in the history of our republic. Buried in 2 paragraphs titled Section 4 sets the stage for Legal Governance Surveillance on all US Citizens; total control of your bank accounts and purchases; and the ability to silence all dissenting voices for good”

IMF and World Bank conceived at UN Bretton Woods Conference 1944

What is the difference between the IMF and World Bank? And what is Bretton Woods?
(mainstream official definition)

Rumble | 2017 CNBC

  • Both the IMF and the World Bank were conceived at the United Nations’ Bretton Woods Conference in July 1944.
    • “Top economic minds from 44 countries gathered at a hotel in New Hampshire to come up with a new framework for the international monetary system.”
    • “There was a general consensus that the old system of exchange rates and payments had failed, leading to the Great Depression, currency devaluations and the collapse of the gold standard.”
    • “Famed economist John Maynard Keynes, representing the United Kingdom at Bretton Woods, and Harry Dexter White, the U.S. Treasury representative, clashed over the terms of the new system. After three weeks, a deal was reached creating two distinct institutions: the International Monetary Fund and the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development, soon to be known as the World Bank.”

  • The IMF and the World Bank are closely linked – so close that their headquarters are across the street. 
    • The IMF was tasked with overseeing a system of fixed exchange rates linking global currencies to the U.S. dollar, which was pegged to gold. The fund was also in charge of issuing short-term loans to countries struggling to meet their balance of payments.
      • Today the IMF keeps tabs on the global economy, provides technical assistance and training to implement economic policies and provides loans to member countries in need of financing. 
    • The main goal of the World Bank was to give financial assistance to countries – mainly in Europe – that needed to rebuild after the war.
      • The World Bank has focused primarily on development and reducing poverty. (really? lol, you are doing a lousy job…unless your job is to reduce poverty potentials of the elite..)

  • Both institutions include 189 member countries and have vast operations around the world. The World Bank receives funding by issuing bonds to global investors, while the IMF is financed by quotas from member countries.
    • The institutions have their share of critics, in part because of the conditions attached to their loans.

If you don’t want to download all of them cos you’re not a geek like me, then my two best picks are Scenarios for the Future by the Rockefeller Foundation (2010) and Solari Report on Vaccine ID Passports (2022) – neither of which are specifically about CBCDs but they are so relevant to the pandemic and how long this digital ID human enslavement has been planned, and I think they are both “must-read” documents. However for the CBDC and Social Credit System stuff, you’re going to have to geek out and get everything and more, because I still have a long way to go.

The central banks are preparing to replace all cash money with a digital currency, the CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency). This will give them full control over humanity, as they can then monitor every transaction, limit what you can spend, and even delete your funds at will. It is promoted as something that will make our lives easier. The truth is that it would mean total tyranny for all of humanity. Our digital funds would be connected to our digital ID, which will be connected to our vaccine status and social credit scores.

Imagine no longer being able to access your funds – when your digital ID shows that you haven’t received your umpteenth vaccine booster. Or envision how your spending would be limited as the result of posting something on Facebook that the government doesn’t like. Or worse: what if governments simply erase your bank account because you don’t agree with their policies?

This has been happening already with services like PayPal, which closed thousands of accounts because people engaged in activities that opposed tyranny. JP Morgan Chase and Wells Fargo have frozen the bank accounts of people who participated in events that defend basic human rights. In Canada, America, The Netherlands, India, China and other nations, countless people have experienced this. (Source)

We’re in trouble guys- this topic gives me a headache, but we need to learn what we can and try and wake the others.
