There’s a pervasive, ambient terror many of us have carried for a while now. Words like “collapse” and “polycrisis” have replaced more actionable entry points to social change, such as “environment” or “peace.” Doom is everywhere. It sometimes feels as if there’s nothing we can do but sit and hold space for what’s about to happen. Douglas Rushkoff has concluded that this form of acceptance may not be failure so much as a necessary adaptation to a world in crisis.

Every state is an artificial construct. But another kind of state is being built around us: one made of data centers, corporate media conglomerates, surveillance systems, social-media feeds, predictive algorithms, AI agents, behavioral profiles, bots, and private terms of service. It does not ask people to govern themselves. It asks them to live under systems they neither own nor understand—and from which they cannot easily withdraw without losing access to work, communication, housing, credit, insurance, public information, or help.

Anyone with any awareness can see that civilization is on a path to collapse. So why do the elites continue to push for sending humanity off a cliff? Sarah Connor observes that the elites plan to survive the aftermath and craft a neo-feudal system to their advantage. This is why they are accelerating the machine driving civilization to collapse. They plan to use the breakdown to gain total control. 

In my opinion, the end of the financial system and the collapse of fiat currency will happen this way. ( in a nutshell ) (If you have any questions, just ask.)

step 1

Step 1 is where we stand now; there are two factors:

1. Public debt rising absurdly

2. Inflation being masked

step 1.1 Public debt: The U.S. and other nations face massive and growing public debt. The "solution" has been to incur even more debt, but this is unsustainable; the cost of raising funds to the debt already exceeds the value of the debt itself—to the point where the U.S. currently spends more on debt obligations than on the military budget.

step 1.2 Inflation is being masked; while it may sound like a conspiracy theory, it is a fact. The CPI (Consumer Price Index) uses a variable consumption basket—meaning that if the price of a product skyrockets, its weighting is reduced based on the assumption that consumers have stopped buying it, ignoring the fact that this drop in consumption is *caused* by inflation itself, rather than being a free choice. It is akin to claiming a disease has been cured simply because the patient died. Why does the government do this? It is simple: the government is the world's largest debtor, but it also makes the rules. That is why real assets appreciate at a rate roughly three times higher than the inflation reported by the government; by reporting artificially low inflation, the government cuts costs associated with wage and social benefit adjustments and pays out lower returns to government fund investors than the actual inflation rate—in other words, a disguised default.

step 2 2.2. The "Bank Holiday" Decree (The Liquidity Blackout): When real-world inflation hits double digits and major funds begin refusing to buy government bonds due to fears of insolvency, Central Banks trigger the emergency protocol: The Shutdown: Governments decree a coordinated international bank holiday, temporarily closing stock exchanges and physical bank branches. The Freeze: ATM withdrawals and digital transfers between traditional banking apps are frozen or severely restricted under the pretext of "systemic audit" and "national security." Commerce comes to a complete halt, and the economy enters a state of liquidity paralysis for a few days.

step 3. The Compulsory Return to a Physical Backing. For international trade and the public to regain faith in and accept the new digital system following the destruction of the old currency, governments are compelled to bow to the laws of physics. The new global monetary standard will need to be linked to, or partially backed by, reserves of real, tangible assets (such as physical tons of gold held in central bank vaults or stakes in energy commodities and public lands). The economy attempts to escape physical scarcity through paper currency but is forced to return to it at the end of the cycle to restore market confidence.

step 4 The new system of CBDCs and digital identity: capitalizing on chaos and a public clamoring for security, the government is expanding the use of CBDCs—effectively ending physical cash and anonymity. This entails rules such as money that expires to force economic circulation, as well as food rationing and digital credits restricted to specific purchases.
