Thousands
of years of monetary history
reveals, only gold money is
inflation resistant, unlike
fiat currency that inevitably
inflates away into oblivion.
In
only 100 years the purchasing
power of the dollar has evaporated;
data from the Federal Reserve
reveals only 4 pennies remain
for each one dollar printed.
Given
the insidious nature of inflation,
one would expect monetary
policy to be the topic du
jour.
Nevertheless,
a key founder of modern economics,
John
Maynard Keynes noted,
"not one in a million
will detect (inflation)."
In
1971 the US President granted
control of the money supply
to bankers by closing the
gold window, ending the exchange
of Greenbacks for gold.
Lynette
Zang draws startling parallels
between today's financial
markets and the Great Depression
era of 1930's, including rampant
margin leverage of 10:1.
An
economic calamity may be inevitable,
unfolding as soon as 2021.
It
is advisable to expand their
local network to improve the
odds of survival and boost
household stockpiles of food
/ medicine / PMs / energy
and self-defense.
In
only 5 years, Draper University is already setting
the standard in education, with several success
stories including a billion dollar crypto-token
company.
In
2014, his forecast of $10,000 BTC by 2017 came to
pass ahed of the prediction.
Tim
Draper expects the $86 trillion global currency
market to be eclipsed by Bitcoin / altcoins, which
implies a 240x-500x price increase from current
levels.
His
prediction last month of $250k Bitcoin by 2022,
resulted in "The Draper Effect" set the
floor on the $6,600 price, sending Bitcoin soaring
by 50%.
He
joins the chorus of leading financial gurus calling
for $1 million Bitcoin, adding that BTC could climb
into the millions per coin.
Key
qualities of BTC: A store of wealth, ease of transfer,
safety relative to traditional banking, less bureaucracy,
and frictionless transactions.
Additional
benefits: governments will compete for their citizens,
digitally; easy accessibility for the unbanked masses
as well as a parallel monetary system.
Tim Draper notes the brain drain of talent and of
wealth from regions with draconian legislation towards
crypto favorable areas, such as "Crypto-Rico."
Puerto
Rico offers entrepreneurs a tax safe haven, funnelling
wealth to the island where officials hope new capital
will rebuild the devastated infrastructure.
While Japan wisely adopted Bitcoin as legal tender,
bringing considerable affluence, other nations have
struggled to accept the decentralized blockchain.
To
paraphrase M. Gandhi: First they laugh at you, next
they ignore you, then they attack you, and then
you win.
Similarly,
although JP Morgan and related institutions first
rejected Bitcoin, FOMO is rampant on news that Goldman
Sachs announced a BTC trading desk.
Economists
/ policymakers and investors who resist the inevitable
pull of the crypto-revolution are doomed to mediocrity,
while those who adapt to the new trend will improve
their odds of success.

In
1964, I began my studies on gold and collectibles
via my Uncle, who was a high-end antique dealer
in New York. My father was a real estate developer
in Kingston, New York. With his contacts in local
commercial banking, I began my banking career at
15. I focused my college education on business finance,
first at Fairleigh Dickenson University in Teaneck,
New Jersey. After a semester in England at Wroxton
College I transferred to the University of Arizona
in Tucson. I remained in commercial banking until
1986 when I shifted to investment banking with Larson
Lehman/American Express and became a stock broker.
Initially I focused my attentions on the government
bond market, learning the nuances of debt and interest
rate moves on bond maturities. In that capacity,
I stumbled across non-dollar denominated bonds and
added the currency dimension. This led to the discovery
of currency life cycle patterns and a deep understanding
of the impact of those life cycles on all socioeconomic
levels and asset classes. My mission is to translate
financial noise into understandable language and
enable educated, independent choices. All my work
is fact and evidence based and I share these tools
openly. I believe strongly that we need to be as
independent as possible and at the same time, we
need to come together in community to survive and
thrive through the hyperinflation I see in the near
future.
