In this episode of the Mark Moss show, I discuss Operation Choke Point 2.0, which is the US government's move to weaponize the financial system against legal but unfavorable businesses.

The government is also using its force to pressure Twitter to suppress, promote, or censor information, as seen in the Twitter files released by Elon Musk. I highlight the government's efforts to control the use of decentralized finance and cryptocurrencies through laws such as the Restrict Act and anti-money laundering requirements, which are supposedly for citizens' safety but actually threaten national security.

The government's laws and sanctions against cryptocurrencies are pushing them out of the financial system.

I have invited Natalie Smolenski to join me in the studio to discuss Bitcoin and mining. We discussed the hostile attitude of policy makers towards Bitcoin, which is making it difficult for Bitcoiners to engage in good faith dialogue.

Natalie suggests that the best way to deal with Bitcoin's enemies is to keep building and create alternatives that make them irrelevant. I agree with her and say that entrepreneurs need to step up and build. We also discuss the overlap between the circles of people who are hostile to cryptocurrencies and those who are hostile to technology in general.

The discussion touches on the singling out of Bitcoin as an undesirable use of computational power, which has raised the question of whether electricity usage itself will be politically restricted in the future.

In this episode of the Mark Moss show, I talk about the ongoing decentralized revolution and how it is changing the way we think about money. I cover some of the latest breaking news headlines and how they relate to the decentralization of politics, finance, and technology.

I talk about the banking collapse and how it is probably just getting started, with banks such as Silvergate Bank and Signature Bank going down. I also talk about how technology is changing the world the most and how social media is being blamed for the banking collapse. However, a recent report shows that social media had nothing to do with the bank's collapse.

I also touch on the age of psychological warfare and how controlling the flow of information is becoming more important in winning wars.

I discuss the decentralized revolution and how the world is changing through politics, finance, and technology. The world is changing quickly, and we have a lot to talk about today, including the dollar losing its reserve status and oils being traded in currencies other than the US dollar. The US dollar has been the global superpower and reserve currency since 1944, but now it is losing its reserve status, which means it will no longer be the currency that other countries use to conduct international trade.

This is important because it affects everyone’s purchasing power and money in the bank. The world is transitioning from a unipolar world to a multipolar world, and the US is no longer the only superpower. England and France were once superpowers, and the pound sterling was the reserve currency before the US dollar.

After World War II, the US had most of the world’s gold and became the new superpower and reserve currency. However, the world is changing again, and we need to understand what’s going on.

I am joined by guest, Michelle Weekley, who is an anti-federalist freedom maximalist. Michelle shares her experiences of living in the Middle East and China and working in tech startups and foreign direct investment. She explains how foreign direct investment is a state and country-level investment in other countries and how the World Economic Forum is the epicenter of foreign direct investment and global trade. We discuss the globalist agenda and how the rich people get together to discuss ways to build their empires, which is not a conspiracy. Michelle also talks about her experience of working in real estate development in China and seeing the ghost cities firsthand. Michelle Weekley Twitter: @michelleweekley

My guest Bruce Fenton and I talk about his background in technology, Bitcoin, finance, and politics, including his recent campaign for a Senate seat. Bruce shares his takeaways from his political experience, highlighting that politics is dominated by money and name recognition, rather than ideas. He also notes that politicians need to spend a fortune on marketing to compete, and that voters are often driven by name recognition. Bruce admits that he ran for Senate partly because he felt it was his duty to help his country, but he did not really want the job.

The recent economic report of the president and the dangers of Operation Choke Point 2.0 is coming to a head. The financial system is melting down and the FED is raising rates and draining liquidity out of the system.

There is something deeper and darker going on beneath the surface, distracting people from the dangerous undercurrent. Three crypto-friendly banks - Silver Gate Bank, Silicon Valley Bank, and Signature Bank - have collapsed due to a bank run.

I suspect that Operation Choke Point 2.0 is behind this, but he cannot understand why these particular banks were targeted.

Technology drives the world's changes and solutions are supposed to come from technology to solve problems. The next five years are expected to bring more change than anyone knows, and I'm excited about two pieces of technology that will change politics and finance.

Throughout history there has been humanity changing technology. The Gutenberg printing press was one of them. It was the first piece of technology that led to the public revolting against the establishment when they discovered the misinformation the establishment had been feeding them. Once information is out, it can't be suppressed.

Technology, especially Bitcoin, is crucial in bringing about decentralization. Communication is one area that requires decentralization, and new apps like Zion and Nostr are making it easy to communicate and pay without censorship. These apps are important for creators who may face censorship from traditional payment processors. Adult content creators, who often face censorship, are already using these apps to receive payments. New platforms are being built today like Nostr which, uses decentralized relays instead of blockchain to transmit information therefore allowing it to scale. Check out the episode for more.
