In Germany, the policies of open borders have caused extreme violence to give life to the Alternative for Germany (AFD) far-right party. They won a state election for the first time in post-World War II Germany in the country’s east on Sunday. They appear poised to finish a very close second to mainstream conservatives in a second vote. It has been an unpopular Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s national government supporting war with Russia and flooding the country with immigrants without skills.
Even a new party founded by a very prominent leftist also made a very strong impact, demonstrating what our computer has been forecasting in 2024 as 60% of the world has gone to the election – throw the bumps out. Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s unpopular national government obtained incredibly weak results because these policies, which the World Economic Forum instigated, are failing. People who do not like this agenda of:
You will own nothing; SHUT UP and be happy.
What people call the far-right AfD is coming closer by the day to the mainstream. In Thuringia, it won 32.8% of the vote, beating the traditional center-right Christian Democratic Union, which gained only 23.6%.
What we see for a Trump victory is merely a continuation of this global trend.

Years ago, when I wrote that Bitcoin was created by the NSA, some Bitcoiners attacked me and insisted that Satoshi Nakamoto was the creator of Bitcoin. Yet someone who created such a product never stepped forward and would have been a billionaire on royalties. But this fictional character was not much different than Lee Harvey Oswald, who the CIA has insisted killed JFK with his magic bullet. At least with Oswald, there was a real man who they cleverly ensured he would be killed to deny any trial. Then, the CIA refused to release files to cover up the entire affair.
Bitcoin was presented as an anti-government creation that would defeat central banks, and some claimed it would become the new reserve currency. I laughed at that because such claims were absurd and demonstrated that it was a sales pitch for no government to arbitrarily create a reserve currency. I have illustrated many times how the currency of the major economy is always imitated, proving that it always was not gold or silver; there was a premium because of who they were. As illustrated above, Southern India issued gold imitations or Roman coins rather than their own because the coinage of Rome was seen as the power on earth.
Trajan Decius (249-251AD) was the first emperor killed in battle by the invading barbarians in 251 AD. What is interesting in this is where the Indian Imitations end with Trajan Decius. The power of Rome was starting to decline, and with it, the imitation of its currency.
The Financial Capital of the world has always migrated, and the United States, in the arrogance of the Neocons, WEF, UN, and Bill Gates, who all think they can dictate to the world, are in their lust for importance and power are destroying this nation, and that title will pass to China.
The pure stupidity of believing that Bitcoin will replace the dollar was remarkable to me, for it illustrated what Julius Caesar observed long ago—people believe what they want to believe. They never consulted history, much less the facts. They celebrated a fictional Japanese character, while those who created Bitcoin at the United States National Security Agency laughed at how easily it was to fool people all the time. Of course, the Bitcoin believers argue that this is ridiculous claiming that there’s no solid evidence to support it. Neither is there a real Satoshi Nakamoto. They may celebrate Bitcoin as an alternative to evil central banks, but they fail to apply that distrust of government to the NSA and CIA.
As I wrote years ago, just look into Bitcoin’s source code. The key to Bitcoin is its use of Secure Hash Algorithm 256, or SHA-256, which is used for everything. This mathematical formula jumbles data into a string of seemingly random text, making it nearly impossible to crack. Those of us in the world of programming are familiar with this algorithm, for it is the direct work of Glenn M. Lilly, who is a mathematician under the direction of the NSA. He designed and eventually published the algorithm back in 2001. Lilly later became the NSA’s chief of mathematics research. All you have to do is look into the NSA and you will discover that it was THE FIRST to even describe a Bitcoin-like system back in 1996. That paper was titled:
How To Make A Mint: The Cryptography Of Anonymous Electronic Cash.
The NSA’s 1996 plan to create anonymous electronic cash (archive.org).
In this paper, you will discover the proposed system that uses public-key cryptography to allow users to make anonymous payments without revealing their identity. If we look at the very name Satoshi Nakamoto, in Japanese, “satori” is a mythical creature that can read minds. Satoshi in Kanji is 覚, which generally means “wisdom,” so if we look at 中本聪,
中 is the “middle”, 本 the “root”.
聪 means “cleverness”
The name of Bitcoin’s pseudonymous creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, can be interpreted as a reference to the U.S. spy agency as a reader of minds and cleverness.
The general talk has been that the end of the fiat monetary system is imminent. Central bank digital currencies allegedly threaten the US dollar, according to some very shallow reasoning and a total lack of understanding about why the dollar is even the reserve currency. Beyond that delusion, these people claim that cryptocurrency will end fiat currency. However, private cryptocurrency is not backed by anything, either.
There is also serious talk behind the curtain, including the United Nations trying to become a one-world government that will be a dictatorship with no democratic process whatsoever. There is some argument that the central banks’ digital currencies will not displace the dollar, and that title will go to the digital “IMF Coin,” which will become the new reserve currency.
The dollar is the reserve currency, just as was the Roman silver denarius, because it was not just the financial capital of the world. Still, they both represented the major economy, and everyone was trying to sell to the core. Rome conquered most of the Western World at that time, and most found it beneficial to be part of Rome. They often received capital investment into emerging markets, and they produced local goods to be sold to Rome. For example, Egypt was a major supplier of wheat to Rome.
Today’s transactions are mostly digital, so converting paper dollars to cryptocurrency will not dramatically alter the economy. The UN and IMF are simply trying to take over the world for a power play. They do not have armies or economies to qualify for the world’s financial capital. They are drunk with this delusion of power that they can rule the world by sheer decree. From the very beginning, the elite saw in their vision that they would dominate the world and end democracy. Huxley was against the United States and believed that “unrestricted individualism” was equally wrong as a total dictatorship as in communism.
Kalus Schwab’s 8 points for 2030 end the threat of “populism,” as was the case in electing Trump, by eliminating the people’s right to be heard. Schwab, the UN, and the IMF see retaining some basic human rights but removing our right to even say what kind of government we want. In their world, only the elite know what is best—not the people.
This is the real agenda behind cryptocurrencies: to lay the foundation for the ultimate power being handed to the UN and the IMF. This folly will not succeed. Such entities are like men and even corporations—they are never immortal. I will celebrate the day the flags of the UN are lowered forever. It has always been a dangerous and lustful entity drooling for supreme power.
This is the end goal: the IMF digital coin will replace the dollar, and all other CBDCs will clear through it internationally. The reason is that the sanctions they put on Russia led to the split of the world economy, which was the alternative to SWIFT. IMF believes that replacing the dollar will overcome the reason for the BRICS and rejoin the world economy under the IMF, removing the ability of the Neocons to use the dollar as a threat and weapon. The United Nations wants to then emerge as the world peacemaker and replace the United States under their control – not just the WHO with their health mandates. That is just the tip of this monster – the elimination of your right to vote on anything.
I have warned that the very character of Klaus Schwab is one of a control freak. Bill Gates also tends to create monopolies, which he is doing in the pharmaceutical world, forcing MNRA upon humans and livestock without long-term testing. This movement destroys the very basis of human life – the right to pursue your own path. Stalin did the same, and Russia collapsed for history stands as a witness; centralized absolute control has NEVER succeeded even once in history.

QUESTION: Why would anyone want to literally risk their lives to live in a war torn country?
When all Ukrainians join hands, they won't raise them to surrender. We all fight. And today, this is true not only for the Dnipro's two banks. Today, the unity of Ukrainians spans both hemispheres of the Earth. In every corner of which, on February 24, there were people… pic.twitter.com/ylDwWkOLyj
— Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський (@ZelenskyyUa) January 22, 2024
ANSWER: President Volodymyr Zelensky is offering ALL ethnic Ukrainians citizenship, unless they live in Russia. Zelensky is implementing legislation that will allow Ukrainians living abroad to obtain multiple citizenship.
The declaration was made in honor of the 105th anniversary of Ukrainian Unity Day:
“Everyone who has Ukrainian blood in their veins and a free heart beating in their chest. Ukrainians by origin, who have long proven that they are Ukrainians in spirit. And after many years of waiting, they should finally become Ukrainians by passport. At the legislative level. Today I am submitting to the Verkhovna Rada a key draft law that will allow the adoption of comprehensive legislative amendments and the introduction of multiple citizenship.”
Foreign volunteers who took up arms to defend Ukraine, all those who fight for Ukraine’s freedom as if it were their homeland. And Ukraine will become such for them. For everyone who can feel that “being in Ukraine” means “being at home.” Not as tourists, but as citizens. Citizens of a great, united, single Ukraine.”
So you can now IDENTIFY as Ukrainian to receive citizenship if you are willing to fight. You can pay taxes as a Ukrainian to support a government that is entirely dependent on US aid to stay afloat.
“I'm a 30-year-old guy living in Ukraine. Despite all of the shortcomings of this country, I still feel that this is my home, and for the past years, I've always wanted to live here. Life here had and still has many positives too.
Now the war is raging with absolutely no end in sight. The first year and a half I didn't feel the urge to fight, but I didn't want to run away either, thinking that if it does come to it and I get drafted, I'll just accept it. I didn't want to bribe to become unfit or even look for other ways to avoid the draft. Now, with the state the war is in, especially after my friend who went there willingly last year told me not to go, I decided that I should try to actively avoid it. However, bribes to become unfit are no longer an option and there are little to no ways that would allow me to be exempt legally.
The new draft law is on the way. It would oblige all men eligible for service to update their information in the military offices. In case you don't do that or in case you do, get a draft notice and don't show, you will have your driver's license revoked, bank accounts blocked, get prohibited from buying or selling property, and that's not even the full list.
The option to get a 'one-way ticket' is still on the table. A lot of people who have done this hope to return when the war is over. You leave the country legally but simply don't come back in time. At least at the moment, it's just an administrative offense, not a criminal one.
Even if I do decide to proceed with this option, I'd probably hope to come back as well, and what kind of life is that. I don't have any relatives abroad, just some friends, I'm single, so I will have to start on my own. A few years back I had been traveling abroad alone for 9 months, so I know how it feels being far away from home on your own. I work remotely and make decent enough money, I have savings, so it's definitely possible, but leaving everything behind for an undetermined period of time is still difficult. But planning any kind of future here is virtually impossible as well.
Also, as I said, this is my home, and terrible things will happen to it if everybody just runs away and there's no one left to defend it. But dying in a ditch because some soviet-era commander doesn't value human lives just seems so horrible. I know it's not the only scenario, but it's still a very plausible one.
But many of my friends have already left, many are planning to, so I'm slowly ending up more and more alone here.
It's such a tough decision to make and the more I wait, the harder this all gets.
EDIT
I'll post some additional thoughts here based on some replies since there are way to many comments for me to be able to respond to them. I'll try to be as honest as possible.
- First of all, thank you everyone for your replies and your sympathies. This is an impossible choice to make and I wish I'd never had to. Many of you have said that whatever I do, it will be a right choice. But in the same way any choice I make will also be the wrong one. And any choice I make with a high degree of certainty will be something I at least partially regret until the end of my life.
- There's no such thing as a conscientious objection here.
- Getting a 'support' role is highly unlikely. If we're talking about the military, you are first and foremost a resource and you'll be utilized where you're needed most. Vast majority of loses occur in the active roles, so these are the positions that need to be replenished the most. I even heard a story of a pediatric surgeon who was designated to be not a combat medic, but an infantry man, since those are in the highest demand. Right now we're only starting to see the development of the system to create a possibility to 'choose' your position and place of service (including the ones in the rear). But as of now military service is indefinite and even if that works, it's still a post-soviet army in a big way, and there's no guarantee you won't be transferred to an active role in the future when someone deems it necessary. Also, currently it's obvious that the state does not have much interest in or enough resources for caring about wounded soldiers. In a huge way, once something happens to you, in a big way you're on your own and your only hope is your own resources or volunteers. And that, of course, is not sufficient to help everybody.
- I personally do believe this war is morally justified and existential for us. Yes, this is a failure of politics and politicians: Russia with its imperialism, the West with their inability to act after giving Ukraine guarantees of safety in 1994 and their leniency towards Russia, us with our naivety and short-sightedness. The immaturity of Ukrainian nation has also played its role here. However, for Ukraine this is not a war for resources or Zelensky. It's a war for existence.
- Advocating for peace talks is very unlikely to bear any results in the foreseeable future. There's no way to negotiate with someone who doesn't want to negotiate. Putin believes he can outlast us and the West in the war of attrition, get more territory, and achieve more of his goals, he doesn't care about the lives lost, so there's no reason for him to stop. At the very best there can be a pause that he will use to rearm and attack again with a new force. The only way this can be stopped is with force and deterrence.
- That being said, I'm not trying to paint my desire to leave as anything but concern for my personal safety. A lot of people who have commented believe that's justifiable. And I partly agree. A lot of people on the other hand believe that this is cowardice. And I partly agree with that as well. It's either you believe that you have a right to live your life and that it is precious, or that you have a duty that you never willingly took to give that life for a country where you happened to be born a male.
- There's no need to judge the whole of the Ukrainian nation by my character. There are hundreds of thousands of people who have willingly taken arms and sacrificed their own health and lives. There are many more who are ready to do that when the time comes.”
It is hard to envy this man’s position. He must choose between a violent bloody war or abandoning his home. Sadly, he and most others were led to believe that peace was not an option. Putin has offered Zelensky countless opportunities to end the war but he consistently chooses to amplify tensions by involving his NATO neocons. He mentions that conscientious objection is not an option for Ukrainians.
The original poster sheds light on the dire situation at the frontlines. “I even heard a story of a pediatric surgeon who was designated to be not a combat medic, but an infantry man, since those are in the highest demand,” he wrote. There are simply not enough men to meet the replenishment rate due to the high number of casualties.
There are comments calling this man a coward, stating that it is his patriotic duty to stay and fight what he perceives to be “an endless war.” These are the people who will choose to leave their homelands and accept multiple citizenship in Ukraine. They believe they are fighting a war between good and evil, as Zelensky frequently deems it.
People living in horrid conditions in other countries can simply come to the US now, where the borders are open, and they’ll receive a tax-payer subsidized life. If the neocons want to prey on the desperate, close the borders to the US, Canada, and Europe. I do not know who would make a decision to enter a war on behalf of a foreign nation for any reason outside of desperation or insanity.

In her keynote address at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen reaffirmed Europe’s unwavering support for Ukraine in the face of Russia’s invasion. However, in the open admission of priority, President Von der Leyen declares the #1 priority of the corporations who run the WEF and world of politics, must be control of speech and information against their interests.
She goes on to note that political dissent, what she calls “polarization within our societies” must be controlled, as the ability of individuals and groups to assemble against the WEF plan remains a constant threat to the fulfillment of the agenda. [Insert a picture of dissident enemy #1, Donald Trump, here] Yes, you do not need to interpret their intent, you only need to listen to their words and accept them. WATCH (first two minutes):
“There is no such thing as “disinformation” or “misinformation” or “malinformation”. There is only information. There is information you accept and information you do not accept. You were not born with a requirement to believe everything you are told; rather, you were born with a brain that allows you to process the information you receive and make independent decisions.” ~ Sundance

COMMENT: Dear Mr Armstrong
Happy New Year to you and your team from Germany. Just in case you didn‘t already know, tomorrow at 11 am is a nationwide general strike supposed to be happening as a protest to the policy of the recent government.

I have warned that Zelensky will go down in history as the evil ruler he truly is. And for those who constantly want to pretend this is Russian propaganda, tell that to the 500,000 Ukrainian soldiers who are dead and all the broken homes Zelensky has left behind, along with the 8 to 10 million who have fled Ukraine. Worse still, he is making it a criminal act to flee the country and avoid his draft to justify the EU arresting Ukrainians and deporting them back to be sent to their death on the front lines.
The idea of drafting another 500,000 Ukrainians to be sacrificed on this Neocon Altar for nothing more than a territorial grab of the Donbas is causing absolute panic sweeping the country. Zelensky’s penalties are to be introduced for those who refuse to comply. Ukraine’s financial system is on the brink of collapse. Our Ukrainian sources are reporting that there has been a run on ATMs in Ukraine. Apparently, Ukrainians have withdrawn about a billion dollars from their accounts in a single day! We are looking at a financial crisis unfolding in the Ukrainian banking and financial system thanks to Zelensky’s legislation intended to force conscription to raise another 500,000 people to be sent to the frontline. As part of this bill, Zelensky intends to isolate people who evade the draft by removing them from carrying out any financial transactions or selling property.
As a result of Zelensky’s proposed law, Ukrainians are in a state of panic. They have been plundering their accounts and are now hoarding cash and abandoning the banks. Our model warns that Ukraine will NEVER succeed in this war, and it may no longer even survive as a nation-state post-2026. Indeed, 2026 is showing up on both the ECM for Ukraine as well as on the ECM based entirely on the beginning of this proxy war against Russia. Zelensky’s new law also lowered the age and introduced three months of basic training for 18 to 25-year-olds.
The conscription age is to be lowered from 27 to 25 years;
The introduction of basic three-months-long military training for all Ukrainian citizens aged 18 to 25 in every educational establishment;
The introduction of optional military service for persons aged under 25 who were not able to complete basic military training;
It does not matter how many Ukrainians Zelensky throws into this meat grinder. Ukraine will NEVER prevail over Russia. The West knew this would be the outcome. They were simply using Ukraine to weaken Russia for the kill, which they hoped would be delivered by NATO. That is why they are now prodding the Baltic states to wage war with Russia to justify NATO troops to engage Russia head-on. Financial support is waning because they know Ukraine is just cannon fodder.
Zelensky is becoming perhaps the most hated Ukrainian leader to date. I would not put it past a coup unfolding with his assassination that they would probably try to blame on Putin. Many in the government now see that this has never been about protecting the Ukrainian people. Even the local Ukrainian Press published a story about how Boris Johnson came from England to kill any peace deal. This has been nothing about just sacrificing Ukrainians to weaken Russia.
When we compare the Ukrainian and Russian currencies, we can see that the critical climax of the Ukrainian financial crisis appears to be by March, which is the time of the Russian election. We may see this push to raise another 500,000 Ukrainians to be sent to the front lines as the driving force that coincides with the Russian election, whereas May 7th is the swearing-in date of the next term for the President of Russia.
