Wait to you see some of the other data I have on that 1988 Economist cover... It ties so much together. I guess I'll do the story at some point. I just gotta edit it... :) There are many ways I could run with it, given the breadth and depth of it all. I'm just struggling with such poor results on these last 2 posts.

The current system all seems to be running it's course sometime in the next few years. I truly believe they will replace this system sometime in the near future. Who knows exactly when. There are a lot of variables, especially blockchain technology and AI together. It's my view that the right side of politics is doing everything they can to keep things going positive at least for the next 2 years to try and reelect Trump, and are planning to utilize these new technologies for the new system. Probably more eyes are on China now to play a key role in it all, especially given they have already said they are working to create their own cryptocurrency backed by gold and oil.

One of the many interesting altcoins to me is Stellar. IBM, who is probably their largest partner, released just in the last month that among many big projects about to come into play, that the chances are very strong that central banks are coming out with their own digital currencies on the Stellar network soon. Stellar said they will become known to most everyone sometime this year, as they roll out their projects and joint ventures. And so the plot thickens... :)
