While most people rage over the Voice to Parliament or men competing in women’s sports, there is a real battle going on in the background that actually matters.

It is about the money. The be-all and end-all. And money is about to radically change with the attempted introduction of a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) in most Western countries.

You could throw out the whole of Parliament and replace them with ideologically-selected elders and your life would hardly change – or allow men to dominate women’s sport and the world would continue in much the same way.

None of this matters. You are raging over the circus.

But if a CBDC takes over the world, you will know about it. You will know about it quickly.

The only battle worth fighting for is over the control of our monetary systems. Whoever controls the money controls you.

If a Covid-like event came around again and world leaders wanted to enforce a lockdown, they could do it as simply as shutting off the bank accounts of non-essential businesses. You can’t go to the pub if the pub is no longer able to accept payments. And the ability of a pub to accept payments can be switched off with the click of a button. Every man and business can be switched off with the click of a button…

How about the cows that are apparently causing climate change? The solution is simple. Only allow individuals to buy one steak per month. This is easy with a CBDC.

Not only is it easy, but it will be cheered, because the masses will be told it’s the only way to save the planet. They will demand it and their power-hungry leaders will happily comply.

This is the future that every Western government is planning for their citizens because they all have a CBDC roadmap. Some are more advanced than others. The US has made plans for a new system called FedNow which will be trialled in July. Officials from the Federal Reserve have come out and reassured people it’s not a CBDC, but it sure as hell quacks like one.

Luckily there are a few smart politicians around the world who understand the solution to all this is Bitcoin.

In America, Robert Kennedy Jr, the leading Democrat currently challenging Biden, has said Bitcoin is the only way citizens will be able to transact without government interference.

‘The ability to save and spend without political interference is a prerequisite for the exercise of meaningful dissent, and I will defend it accordingly,’ he posted on Twitter.

‘The digitisation of currency has given government unprecedented powers to surveil and control economic life. That is why I oppose CBDCs, which will vastly magnify the government’s power to suffocate dissent by cutting off access to funds with a keystroke. That’s also why I support Bitcoin, which allows people to conduct transactions free from government interference. Bitcoin has been a lifesaver for people’s movements around the world, especially in Burma.’

The ability to save and spend without political interference is a prerequisite for the exercise of meaningful dissent, and I will defend it accordingly. This is not a right- or left-wing issue. It is about protecting democracy from powerful established interests. The digitization…

In Argentina, the highest polling candidate in the upcoming election, Javier Milei, has repeatedly praised Bitcoin and railed against central banks.

‘The central bank is a scam. It is a mechanism by which the politicians cheat the good people with the inflation tax,’ he said.

Pierre Poilievre, the leader of the conservative party in Canada and the next Prime Minister if he defeats Trudeau has said, ‘The government is ruining the Canadian dollar, so Canadians should have the freedom to use other money, such as bitcoin. The Bank of Canada has zero business developing its own digital currency. As Prime Minister, I would scrap that.’

When Canadian truckers were kicked out of the financial system for protesting vaccine mandates, they used bitcoin instead.

When Julian Assange was kicked off every financial platform after Wikileaks, he used bitcoin.

Edward Snowden repeatedly praises Bitcoin on his Twitter.

They use Bitcoin because they understand the truth about our financial system. A boomer with two negatively geared investment properties will never understand Bitcoin. The current system has worked for them just fine and any sort of change will be terrifying.

It is important to see the value in a technology that allows you to send money from Sydney to Timbuktu to Antarctica to a freedom fighter in Russia.

It can’t be stopped, it can’t be censored, and it can’t be controlled. But it can be sent by any single person from anywhere in the world as easily as sending an email. This is the future of money.

There will be endless resistance. Old men on deathbeds will cling to power and stand in the way of progress if there’s even a slight chance they will lose their grasp on the money.

But none of it matters. Bitcoin is an idea whose time has come. It is inevitable, and every single day a few more people wake up and realise it.
