CAMPBELL Dear Reader, History doesn’t repeat. It rhymes. It’s a cliche, but the thing about cliches is they always end up being right. You see… Over a hundred years ago, the Titanic sank to the bottom of the ocean. Immediately after, the Federal Reserve was created. Just recently, the Titanic hit the news again. This time, because the Titan sank to the bottom of the ocean with it. Instantly after? FedNow was launched. What’s FedNow? According to the Fed, the FedNow program -- launched on July 1 -- is nothing more than a new instant payment infrastructure. Of course, that’s true. The launch of FedNow brings the U.S. up to speed with other nations that already operate real-time payment systems, like the Faster Payments Service in the UK and SEPA Instant Credit Transfer in the EU. [pub] In some ways, this is just the US catching up. But here’s the thing… Attention! Before You Read Any Further… [James Altucher]( Hey, it’s James.

B.] Centralize payments, making them more vulnerable to cyber attacks. C.] Increase the possibility of bank runs. While it will reduce payment costs over time, this will be at the expense of decreasing competition in payments. Ultimately, this puts more power in the lap of the Fed… And increases the risk of the total financial system. BUT… Is this by design? As our Paradigm colleague, Jim Rickards, has pointed out in the past, the endgame here is a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC). And FedNow, though not directly related to a CBDC, is a fast-track to getting us there. What should you do to prepare? As of this week, in light of new events, Jim’s updated his predictions. If you’re worried about a CBDC… you won’t want to miss it. [Click here to see Jim’s latest CBDC warning.]( Until next time, [Chris Campbell] Chris Campbell
