Likewise where I am but more people are waking up, plus we have this forum so we’re lucky in that sense. Try to be as open and as objective as you can be, then hopefully your path will become clear.
And if your home gets pierced by a quarter-mile ice cube, there isn't much you can do either!
Stable coins? And/or, will we be able to go into the digital Yuan? Metals are good but become cumbersome when you throw your back out trying to carry them!
Yeah, I'm very curious if we are able to attain the digital Yuan. I think we will be able to eventually, but not (easily) from the start during the trial-period. Regarding stablecoins: they should be detached from the USD if hedging against inflation is the goal. I am not too well versed on this topic: but are there any alternatives? Stable coins backed by other crypto (ethereal for instance) are not the safe solution you wish for I think.
Strongly agreed.
I think right now crypto will be the best hedge against inflation, but you have to be prepared for extreme volatility within that hedge.
I agree that these are important and should be put side by side with buying some crypto. At least in the US, I'm not sure how many cars will be on the road at some point until the supply chain is 'solved' or the problems reversed, since if you don't have oil filters, oil, tires, and everything else needed for regular maintenance, at some point next year you may not have a functioning car.
We are no way close to cryptos being used in any way for total control. Crypto in general is still in its infancy and is just starting to be built out. Crypto is hardly at all integrated systemically within society. I think it will have to be integrated to the level that the internet has been integrated and being indispensable for things to function before any system of total control via crypto is attempted or implemented. But first, we need a 'crisis'/collapse of the system we have now and the time that takes to play out. The C's via Pierre's questions indicated previously that the fake economic collapse will turn into real economic collapse. So who knows how that will all play out toward building out a system of total control via crypto. Then the next step is to have TPTB say that "we have a solution with CBDC and digital money." CBDCs and crypto would look like they are in competition with each other. Looks like Governments will try to convince people to use CBDC, but since there is what looks like more freedom within crypto in people's eyes, people overall will gravitate towards them instead of what governments are offering. I think you have to have people first love the thing, so that they adopt it, that is then turned against them. Look at how the internet and then social media progressed that way to some extent. Also, I think that not only do TPTB want to implement a fully digital system of total control, but they also want to ultimately undermine and destroy nation states, destroy national currencies of any kind, and national sovereignty at least in part or in full for all of these. And so I think CBDCs as the system used will collapse, which leaves crypto as the digital option that people will embrace. During this period crypto and Web 3.0 are being built out and more integrated into society and civilization. Crypto would then be more powerful then nation states via what some are talking about as Network States forming. This is an interesting article where you can read between the lines in terms of what these Network States might look like. Corporate states, quasi corporation and government merged states, and decentralized network states.

Yep, what if a space virus kills off 75% of people via a 'Black death' plague as the C's indicated is possible? What if cosmic catastrophe of some scale comes, which has been an underlying theme of some degree in the C's material? What happens if 4D bleed through really starts kicking in in some places? All sorts of unknowns can happen, so for me I look at a generalized coverage for all sorts of possibilities with the best possible ability to get through things. Right now that includes crypto, since if our technological civilization holds together, the digital wealth of the world looks likely to move into crypto. Crypto is about a $2.5 trillion market value right now. How much digital wealth is out there in our current system that will eventually flow into crypto - $200 Trillion, even accounting for wealth destruction from the old system being destroyed? That is why I think cryptos are currently the best hedge against inflation since they will want to go from the current mostly digital system to the digital cryptos and it is much easier to move to crypto than into other asset classes, in addition to what I wrote above. And how long is all of this going to take to happen - 3-5 years?
This is my thought and approach as well right now. Trying to be 'wise as a serpent and gentle as a dove' and realistic that many things can happen.
