Shire Silver is a direct response to the arrest of my friend Bernard. I started working on it two days after he was arrested. It became obvious that there needed to be a way to make money that could be decentralized in its production and distribution so there would be no headquarters to attack.
I got involved with the Liberty Dollar in 1999.
I only heard of the Liberty Dollar about a year before the arrest. I was excited about it and hoped that it would grow in popularity enough that I would start to see them here in the East. Then I was very, very disappointed when it was shutdown.
Your motive with ShireSilver seems good. And the concept is almost good. But I think the guarantee behind what you call "
branding" is more important than you allow.
