One Plague Ends, Another Begins

These are all man-made calamities. [Gilder's Daily Prophecy] February 16, 2022 [UNSUBSCRIBE]( | [ARCHIVES]( The Crypto 10-Percenters Only 1 in 10 people own cryptocurrencies. As crypto becomes more and more a part of our lives, that number will surely rise. So if you think you’re too late... You Are Not! But here’s the thing... 65% of people who own crypto bought for the first time in the last year. It’s clear, crypto adoption is accelerating. Below are 3 of the coins that could be on the cutting edge of the next mega-shift in crypto currencies.

One Plague Ends, Another Begins [Jeffrey Tucker]Dear Daily Prophecy Reader, Before we get to today’s issue... There is something urgent I’m asking you to take a look at. One of my colleagues just made a rather interesting discovery regarding the future of “The Cryptocosm.” Specifically, he’s pinpointed a handful of[tiny investment speculations]( that are poised to ride alongside an exponential growth curve over the coming years. (According to his research, he’s projecting a 9,900% industry boom by 2026). George Gilder even recorded a short video clip explaining everything. [[You can watch it here.]( It’s not long. Maybe three minutes or so. I hope you take a moment and watch it at your earliest convenience. After you take a look, read on below… It’s a habit with very low payoff: I still look at the New York Times daily. What amazes me more and more is how little actual news you find there. The top items seem always to be about some woke political agenda, but they can’t bother to report on the truly momentous events shaping the world. Today, Paul Krugman’s column caught my eye. He used to be an economist and a pretty good one. He snagged the Nobel Prize for his good work on trade theory. Something happened to him. Actually, political tribalism happened to him. His piece today, based on the title, is about how the right wing is promoting vandalism in the form of trucker convoys and anti-mandate rallies. Honestly, I didn’t read it. Didn’t have to. We all know what it says. Time is too valuable. The last column I read by him was all about how inflation is not bad: neither serious nor particularly damaging. This is sheer fantasy: inflation is awful and driving every manner of upheaval right now. Double Digits Yesterday I reported on producer prices, which rose 1% in January. Annualized that’s obviously double digit, but none of the news reports said that. Instead, we heard about how looking back over the previous 12 months, that’s 9.6%, just shy of the deadly zone. Something clicked in my brain that this wasn’t quite right, and this morning David Stockman [nailed it]( Today’s release of the PPI (final demand finished goods) for January posted at +12.54% on a Y/Y basis—just a tad below the +12.93% Y/Y reading recorded way back in, well, October 1980! That’s right. We have now lapsed backwards by 42 years into the inflationary nightmare that brought Ronald Reagan into the White House. Yet instead of anything remotely resembling Paul Volcker at the watch we have a ship of fools in the Eccles Building who are so stupidly stubborn that they won’t even call off the last leg of their mindless bond buying campaign. Between now and March 10, in fact, they will buy another $55 billion of UST’s and GSE’s with fraudulent credits snatched from thin air. Talk about pouring kerosene on the raging fires. This comes right out of central casting. You don’t read that at any mainstream venue, simply because the ruling class (I hope you don’t mind that I use that phrase so often: it is just so perfectly descriptive) is truly terrified at panicking the public. That’s the only explanation I can come up with for why the press coverage of inflation is so eerily nonchalant. Prime Minister vs. Premier I never expect the Times to report on the news. So it hardly surprised me at all that the paper carried nothing about the most mind-blowing turnabout in Canada in the last 24 hours. As you know, the Canadian prime minister has declared emergency powers for himself, even though he likely has only a 6% approval rating in the whole country. If you are going to make yourself a strongman, you probably need a stronger support base than this. He pretends that he is in charge, but he could barely get a word in yesterday in Parliament for all the wild heckling he was getting. It wasn’t coming just from the opposition party either. I’ve really wondered what regime change looks like in a developed democracy. Perhaps this is what it looks like: disgrace, humiliation, and a de facto loss of power. Looking at pictures of truckers in Ottawa having coffee and pancakes with the police, everyone enjoying themselves as they call for freedom, we are seeing visions of a real velvet revolution. Now let’s get to the big news. The governor of the province of Ontario, which hosts the capital city, plus 39% of the country’s population, just yesterday improvised some comments from a microphone during a press conference. Nothing Premier Doug Ford said is shocking because we all know it’s true. What’s remarkable is that he said it in defiance of all the media and even the prime minister. This is what a complete meltdown looks like. Because you aren’t going to read this in major newspapers, let’s reprint a transcript courtesy of [Jeff Childers]( You can go shopping … [and] you don’t know if the person beside you has the shot or not. But we also know that it doesn’t matter if you have one shot or ten shots. You can catch Covid. See, the Prime Minister has triple shots; I know hundreds of people with three shots that caught Covid. We just have to be careful, always make sure we wash our hands, and move forward. And every single person including myself knows people that’re unvaccinated. Sure, there’s the rabble rousers. And then there’s just hard working people that just don’t believe in it. And that’s THEIR CHOICE. This is about — again — a democracy and freedoms and liberties. I hate, as a government, telling anyone what to do. We can’t stay in this position forever. We’ve got to learn to live with this and get on with our lives. I bet if I asked every single person in this room do you want these damn masks or do you want them off — they want ‘em off. They want to get back to normal. They want to be able to go out to dinner with their families. We just got to get moving forward and get out of this and protect the jobs. You know, I think a lot of people — probably yourself too — everyone’s done with this. Like, we are DONE with it. Let’s start moving on, and cautiously. We’ve followed the rules. All of us. 90% of us. For over two years. The world’s done with it. So let’s just move forward. Mic drop! Whoa. Sure, there’s nothing particularly shocking in the contents, only that he said the quiet part out loud. Now that it’s been said, Trudeau has a serious problem on his hands. Is he going to arrest the governors of his own province for supporting insurrectionist activity? At some point, even a privileged would-be dictator has to read the writing on the wall. The Metaverse Story You’re NOT Hearing… Everywhere you turn, people are raving about the Metaverse. Facebook’s now called Meta. Microsoft’s CEO says, “The Metaverse is here.” Apple’s all in too. But there’s a critical piece of the Metaverse story you’re NOT hearing about… [Click here now for the full details](. One Plague Ends, Another Begins French philosopher Albert Camus wrote a book called The Plague, that was basically autobiographical of his own quarantine experience. It also mixes in lots of fiction. It is very powerful and I highly recommend it. Spoiler alert: it ends when the plague itself ends. The bad germ goes endemic, loses seasonality, water systems are cleaned, and so on and then, one day, the plague goes away and life goes back to normal. People wonder why they went so bonkers and they turn on the leaders who whipped everyone into a frenzy rather than treating the thing with rationality. That is precisely what is happening throughout the entire world today, as more governments drop restrictions and open up their economies. So if you want to get a sense of why Trudeau’s power grab has proving to be so spectacularly unsuccessful, have a look: [Daily New Cases in canada] Which is to say: Covid is going away. There is no emergency. And by the way, there never was a plague. It was a nasty bug with a 99.8% survival rate and in which the average fatality age range is nearly equal to the average lifespan. Did the world go nuts? Yes. That plague is gone but now we have many other plagues: cultural devastation, loss of education, ruined businesses, shattered communities, wrecked supply chains, a possible war in Europe, and now inflation that is wrecking household and small-business financing. We also have a plague of government overreach, plus censorship. These are all man-made calamities. No virus could do this. They did this to us. That’s where we are today, a world seething in anger at the elites. We need honesty about this now more than ever. Final note: in these last days of the fake plague, we’ve seen large financial intermediaries block, censor, defraud, and even steal. This has provided crypto the biggest industrial boost in its history. The scams in this industry are also booming. Please be careful out there!
