Venezuela - banksters 2-0: Maduro about to launch second Cryptocurrency, bringing the gold standard from the back door!


After the successful premiere of Petro, Venezuela's first Cryptocurrency, the country is about to send another shock wave against the Wall Street mafia and the Western banking cabal, very quickly. Maduro announced a second Cryptocurrency that will be backed by gold and other precious metals!

From TeleSur:

After launching the oil-backed cryptocurrency Petro earlier this week, the Venezuelan government is now preparing a new digital currency called the Petro Gold or 'Petro Oro,' which will be backed by gold and other precious metals.

"Next week I'm going to launch the Petro Gold, backed by gold, which is even more powerful, to strengthen the Petro," Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro said in a televised speech on Wednesday night.

Maduro has said the goal of the Petro and now the Petro Gold is to combat sanctions and the "economic war" waged by the U.S. government and its junior partners against his country, and advancing "on issues of monetary sovereignty, to make financial transactions and overcome the financial blockade."

The launch of the Petro was announced in December. It is regulated by the Superintendence of Cryptocurrencies and Related Activities, as well as the Blockchain Observatory.

In 1971, Nixon ended the direct convertibility of the US dollar to gold, and as dollar became the global reserve currency, the absolute dominance of the banksters became definite. This is a very crucial moment because it actually marks the beginning of casino capitalism and the complete domination of the neoliberal ideology in the West.


Banks and big corporations couldn't wait. Just two years later (September 1973), they proceed to another big experiment. Through the U.S.-backed military coup in Chile that ousted the democratically-elected President Salvador Allende, they establish a 17-year dictatorship led by Augusto Pinochet. Chile became the first lab-rat of neoliberalism. Milton Friedman and the Chicago boys advise dictator Pinochet to kill the state and privatize everything. Chile was occupied by big cartels, US interests companies, people suffered from poverty and from Pinochet's cruel regime.

It's the same tactics tried by the US empire against Venezuela, attempting to 'make the economy scream', as Nixon had ordered back then against Chile.

With the dollar monopoly through the abolition of gold standard, the US empire managed to maintain its military machine in order to support and expand the interests of the US corporate monopolies. At the top of the pyramid, the banking cartels became the absolute controllers of the new fiat money with devastating consequences: endless wars, rising inequality, destruction of the social state, waves of ongoing attacks against the middle class in the US and elsewhere.

Therefore, this second strategic move by Venezuela is both practical and symbolic. The gold-backed Cryptocurrency not only will help Venezuela to escape the US economic suffocation faster, but also, to create a parallel system of global transactions that will be based on a type of gold standard. This will permit countries to decouple economies more efficiently from the Western monetary monopoly, which is based on financial capitalism.

It is certain that the mechanisms of neoliberalism will fight back, yet, the blockchain technology in the hands of countries that have suffered from its policies, may eventually become a decisive tool that will put an end to its global domination.

EU Is Finished & China Can Now Pull the Plug on the U.S. Economy

Glenn Diesen Yanis Varoufakis is an economist, the former Finance Minister of Greece, and the author of numerous bestselling books. Varoufakis discusses how the EU is a cartel designed by the U.S. that is no longer fit for purpose. The German economic locomotive has broken down; the EU no longer has an economic model, its foreign policy is consumed by war, and it has already become a technological colony. Varoufakis also argues that China can now pull the plug on the U.S. economy if it chooses to do so.

Iran & Yemen’s Maritime Trap: How They Control Global Trade

BreakThrough News Saudi Arabia has $142 billion in American weapons. Yemen is the poorest country in the Arab world. So why can't Riyadh win? Last month, Ansar Allah seized Mokha and Perim Island, and with them the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, cutting off Saudi Arabia's alternative oil route around the closed Strait of Hormuz. Mohammed bin Salman begged Trump for US airstrikes, then backed "Dawn of Yemen," a 100-warplane offensive aimed at Sanaa, as crude oil again tops $100 a barrel. Veteran war correspondent and analyst Elijah Magnier joins Rania Khalek and Zoe Alexandra on the Red Sea front, as nearly 1,000 Yemenis have been killed and 184,000 displaced since fighting resumed. But Magnier argues Ansar Allah – often referred to in US media as the Houthis – hasn't lost much ground. He explains why Saudi warplanes are largely powerless in Yemen's mountainous terrain, and why he sees the movement advancing on Taiz and Marib. And Magnier breaks down how Hormuz and Bab ...

Trump & AI Companies Blatantly Meddled in Brazil’s Election to Help the Fascist

The Humanist Report Fascist Flavio Bolsonaro, the son of disgraced insurrectionist ex-president Jair Bolsonaro, came out ahead of leftist President Lula da Silva in Brazil’s election by 2-points. Both candidates will face off in a runoff election in three weeks. Flavio Bolsonaro prevailed, in part, because he enticed Trump to get involved by promising to give American corporations access to Brazil’s natural resources. In other words, Flavio Bolsonaro is willing to sell out his own country for power. Big tech companies also got involved and waged a disinformation campaign to help Bolsonaro. In this video we’ll talk about how Trump and AI companies blatantly meddled with Brazil’s election and talk about why the far right did so well more broadly speaking.

Σε επανάληψη το έργο «η Άγκυρα είναι εκνευρισμένη» από το μιντιακό τσίρκο Μητσοτάκη

globinfo freexchange Το Μητσοτακικό μιντιακό τσίρκο παίζει για άλλη μια φορά το έργο «η Άγκυρα είναι εκνευρισμένη» με την συμμαχία Ελλάδας-Ισραήλ. Φυσικά, οι μιντιακοί καθεστωτικοί παπαγάλοι δεν θα σας πουν ποτέ ότι ο Νετανιάχου είναι εγκληματίας πολέμου με βάση την απόφαση του διεθνούς ποινικού δικαστηρίου, ότι το Ισραήλ στην τελευταία σύνοδο του ΟΗΕ ήταν περισσότερο απομονωμένο από ποτέ, ότι η υποστήριξη των Αμερικανών ψηφοφόρων προς το Ισραήλ έχει κυριολεκτικά κατακρημνιστεί και συνεχίζει την κατιούσα με βάση τελευταίες δημοσκοπήσεις και ότι οι διαδηλώσεις και εκδηλώσεις ενάντια στο Ισραηλινό κράτος-τρομοκράτη, εντός και εκτός Δύσης, είναι καθημερινό φαινόμενο. Οι μιντιακοί Γκέμπελς προσπαθούν απεγνωσμένα να δημιουργήσουν κλίμα υπέρ του Μητσοτάκη, αντιστρέφοντας την πραγματικότητα, καθώς βλέπουν ότι, ακόμα και στις στημένες δημοσκοπήσεις, τα ποσοστά της ΝΔ απέχουν παρασάγγας από την αυτοδυναμία. Πράγμα που σημαίνει ότι το διεφθαρμένο κόμμα Μητσοτάκη ενδεχομένως να μην αγγίζει ούτε κ...

globinfo freexchange Δανειστήκαμε αυτή τη φράση από ένα παλιό κομμάτι της Ελληνικής ροκ μπάντας "Τρύπες", για να περιγράψουμε με λίγα λόγια αυτό που φαίνεται να έχει πάθει η Ελληνική κοινωνία.  Πώς είναι δυνατόν μια ολόκληρη κοινωνία να έχει ξεχάσει ποιοι τη χρεοκόπησαν; Ποιοι έστησαν το άθλιο σύστημα των κρατικοδίαιτων 'ημέτερων' και της οικογενειοκρατίας; Ποιοι έσωσαν τις τράπεζες με πακτωλό δισεκατομμυρίων σε βάρος της μεσαίας τάξης; Ποιοι έκαναν τη μίζα και το ρουσφέτι επάγγελμα; Πώς είναι δυνατόν αυτή η κοινωνία να ετοιμάζεται να ξαναφέρει στην εξουσία ένα κομμάτι αυτού του άθλιου πολιτικού κατεστημένου, με την επιστροφή μάλιστα του αμετανόητα νεοφιλελεύθερου Κυριάκου Μητσοτάκη και της ομάδας του;   Η απόγνωση που έφεραν εννέα χρόνια βάρβαρων νεοφιλελεύθερων πολιτικών και σκληρής λιτότητας και που ανάγκασε τη χώρα να διαβεί τον εφιαλτικό μονόδρομο της μόνιμης χρεοκοπίας, πρέπει να έπαιξε σημαντικό ρόλο.  Διότι ως γνωστόν, η απελπισία...
