"Only the Federal Reserve System was designed to survive and take over all assets and banking activities. Only the Federal Reserve Banks and those selected and controlled by the Federal Reserve were allowed to reopen. The Federal Reserve was also indemnified by the government, i.e. the public, for any losses. And so, large-scale closure of banks and taking of bank deposits is not unprecedented. Holders of cash in banks are unsecured creditors, with no enforceable claim to their money. [...] All deposits and assets will be taken by the "protected class" of secured creditors. This is where it is going." ~ David Rogers Webb

Its time for the conclusion of "The Great Taking," In Part 4 we explore how the 1933 Bank Holiday wasn't a rescue, but a carefully orchestrated wealth transfer that created the template for today's coming collapse. With derivatives worth more than the entire global economy "backed" by comically unfunded FDIC insurance, and central bank digital currencies ready to replace the old system with absolute control, are we witnessing the final phase of the greatest theft in human history?

"Inevitably following the “Everything Bubble” will be the “Everything Crash.” Once prices of essentially everything crash and all financial firms rapidly become insolvent, these collateral management systems will automatically sweep all collateral to the Central Clearing Counter- parties (CCPs) and Central Banks.
The trap, into which all nations have been herded, is ready and waiting to be sprung."
~ David Rogers Webb

Continuing our dive into Part 3 of David Webb's incredible piece not he structure of the beast that has been designed to consume the global financial system through the undermining of all securities and contractual ownership across the financial system. A trap has been laid, but if we cannot see or understand it, we won't be able to protect ourselves from it. The rabbit hole goes deeper.

What if the true barrier to a world of seamless micropayments isn’t technological, but psychological? In this episode of Bitcoin Audible, we revisit Nick Szabo’s classic essay, “The Mental Accounting Barrier to Micropayments,” exploring why even with lightning-fast, low-cost Bitcoin transactions, the smallest payments might never take off as expected. Can new monetization models, AI agents, and value-for-value systems overcome the hidden costs in our minds-or will human cognition always set the lower bound on how small a transaction can be? Dive in as we unpack the unseen limits shaping the future of digital payments and online commerce.

"Lightning has already achieved a critical mass. It’s already obvious how a Cashu subnetwork and Fedimint subnetworks will communicate with each other: Lightning. That’s how they were designed, so switching the common language between networks would require rebuilding most of their parts. Like English, whatever language subnetworks use internally, Lightning is the language they use to speak to each other, and it’s already locked in." ~ Roy Sheinfeld

Lightning is emerging as the common protocol, or language, for the entire ecosystem of Bitcoin subnets and payment technologies. Will this standardization accelerate innovation and adoption in the Bitcoin ecosystem? What implications does this have for the future of Bitcoin infrastructure and its competition with traditional financial systems?

The risks and benefits of chargebacks, the nature of the trade-off between contract enforcement & ensuring privacy, the elements of splitting contractual elements (the ripped dollar bill) to minimize trust, pseudonymous credit ratings, and so much more in our completion of Szabo's essay, “Formalizing and Securing Relationships on Public Networks.” More amazing foresight into the problems of smart contract design, detailed more than a decade before Bitcoin even existed.

"... The movement from static to dynamic media promises to bring about a fourth cost revolution in the related areas of jurisdiction, trust, and security. Impacts on business will be felt in law, accounting, auditing, billing, collections, contracts, confidentiality, and so on: in short, the entire nature of our business relationships will be altered in ways only partially foreseeable." - Nick Szabo Diving into another excellent piece from Szabo on establishing and updating how we create, enforce, and control relationships in the world of cyberspace.  Check out the full essay at the Nakamoto Institute: https://nakamotoinstitute.org/formalizing-securing-relationships/ And don't forget to follow Szabo on Twitter: https://twitter.com/NickSzabo4 --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bitcoinaudible/message
