Many have tried to pervert blockchain to mean centralized services. That is being destroyed everywhere in the world. You must remain resistant to government attack with decentralization.

Pattern complete at ~1.150. Catalonia The spanish govt went around the region and grabbed all the paper ballots. Which is funny, because technology will set you free. They could just design a website, host it internationally, give access to polling places only. Kurdish Referendum is more important that Catalonia Initial reports out of the region are that yes won. Turkey quickly threatened to cut off their pipeline to the region. I think Erdogan is in a hard place. I remember a conversations about 10 years ago 30k ft over Iraq, hearing that a Kurdistan State is a nightmare for regional powers.

DXY - 92.57 - Trying to bounce saying low in 92. EUR - 1.19 - Euro inflation should be picking up, but because of EU *growth*, which I think strengthens the Euro still further. The relative weakness of the dollar signals low growth in the US, add to that the risk of war with NK. The US economy is horrible, the only thing people can point to to say it's strong is the stock market, which is extremely overpriced. ----- Music by Joakim Karud
