The reason I bring this up is because I am trying to guess what TPTB might do. One thing I think we can say we know for certain is that The Fed will not willfully give up its power. It is going to do what is best for it but the banksters are going to have to be just as devious about it as was when it was created.

The United States Federal Reserve System was created at a time when people had had enough of the local bank runs and losing their money to them. The system was, of course, self serving in a huge way but sold to the people and Congress as if it was in the peoples' best interests. They all bought it hook, line, and sinker. Hopefully, if you're on this forum, you're smart enough to see how that worked out.

So now we find ourselves, roughly 100 years later, in another time of great turmoil. The world has changed, technology has changed, but the people, if not already, are very close to being sick of the current financial system. There is a need for a new Creature from Jekyll island to come into existence. But what will it look like? Whatever it is, it will be sold to the people as "the fix" for the current system but you know in the end it will have to benefit themselves more than any people or government.

The sheeple of the world do not really care about understanding Bitcoin or what makes it different or better than any other digital currency. They do not understand the evils of inflation and of controlling the currency supply. They will buy whatever bullshit is sold to them through mass media as long as they think it is good for them. So it is very possible, at least to me, that The Fed may try to win this battle this way, rather than trying to abolish virtual currencies altogether.
