I love crypto. Filled out the form and subscribed to your other substack. Had some funny ups and downs with the crypto market, made all the requisite mistakes early on, had to learn the hard way but seeing what's happening now with the central banks collapsing, I'm glad I got into crypto early-ish (for a latecomer.) This should make perfect sense to anyone who's in crypto.

The first principle of investing is to preserve your assets.

A little warning to others; years ago I lost a lot of money with mining and pharma stocks. There are just too many pump and dump schemes out there. Every major rise becomes a basis for more reckless "investments" which are more or less just another form of gambling. The best investment is a successful self employed business.

If there is something to be invested in it should be my technology which is Hypersonic Zero Emission Transportation Technology.

Faster cheaper safer cleaner than anything possible and it creates Absolute Zero Emissions forever.

It is the Invention the Illuminati does not want you to know it exists.

And that is because it opens doors least of all interstellar travel that otherwise cannot be obtained.

Elon Schmuckmusk is a con man.

Steve Kirsh? I don't know.

All I know is that Hedge funds are evil.

This is would be a breakthrough project. It would be good if the new company could cover distributed DNS and content too (e.g. substack, rumble, etc.). There have been numerous warnings state sponsored internet blackouts of entire top level domains. Here is just one example prediction from TheGoodCitizen on Substack

https://thegoodcitizen.substack.com/p/the-internet-is-next?s=r

"The Internet Is Next

The war on truth in the race toward tyranny across the west.

...When the cyber attacks start they will be in pieces. A little black out here, another one over there. They will be regional, then national, then global. They have been rehearsing for years with “down detectors” tripping in regional places. They can easily shut down gTLDs - generic top level domains like .com, .net, all the way down through the top 50. They will point the finger at Putin each time. In order for any one site to be resuscitated into their new DNSAI controlled network, a site will need to pass the Ministry of Truth’s propaganda test. There will be no exceptions made for information dissidents who do not eagerly embrace official narratives.

What to do?

Unfortunately this question should have been asked a decade ago and all resources not tied to government venture capital programs, the ones that funded Facebook and Google, should have been answering the call. People thought they were with blockchain and “decentralized networks” however those can all be captured and demolished by governments, if not through legal means then market destruction. There is promise in blockchain for currencies to counter central bank tyranny, but does not solve the issues of privacy and autonomy.

The entire system needs to be abandoned for something completely resistant to bad actors and central powers and built from the bottom out, with the people building it upwards.

If any Good Citizens out there have $80 million under their mattress, it’s time to build a new Internet called Parallel. An entire new network powered by a different protocol that is not interchangeable with the legacy networks controlled by states and monopolies we call the Internet. It can’t be a decentralized version that runs on the same fuel. States can shut those down via their DNS providers, cyber attacks and legislation. It must be created with new digital DNA, completely original and outside any realm of manipulation or control but with privacy at the core of its philosophical architecture. The people could power Parallel from home and earn money doing it. Think of it as an underground resistance printing press during the last world war, instead of being stationed in various French village basements, it is spread throughout the globe.

The only way to kill it would be to shut down electricity to every home on the planet. Millions around the world could setup computers or server stations and instead of mining tokens they’d be powering information for others, a far more tangible and valuable use of power and energy. It can be done using a new consensus mechanism called Proof of Network Value. Bitcoin uses Proof of Work, others use Proof of Stake. This Good Citizen has been tinkering with the concept of PONV for three years. It would be a new system beyond the reach of any state actors or their global managers.

The tyranny will only get worse until we actively innovate back toward liberty. It’s time to liberate the people from the propaganda, lies and social manipulation of these goons which has caused untold suffering in the past two years alone. It would start slowly like a single saloon town in the old west, but build up quickly as millions and millions of more people get tired of the gaslighting and censorship and corporate-state abuse and control. When the Internet is a single square room with white walls and no escape, the asylees will get restless and scratch and claw their way out. They will get hungry for the truth and immediately go where they see it flourish, inevitably attracted to its powerful force, because the truth is a magnet."

I'm disappointed that the investment fund is not open to anyone who is not able or willing to risk at least $50k. It may be easier to administer the fund with smaller numbers of larger investors, and perhaps Steve can max out his investment model without small dollars, but it honestly comes across as...a little bit icky. Good luck anyway!

Hey all, just checking. Can someone loan me $50,000, please?

I found a good opportunity on the internet.

Is this open to Canadians?

I would also be interested as an investor in the crypto company. A cryptocurrency that actually works as a cash is vital.
