Bitcoin: Beyond The Bubble | Bitcoin Documentary | Cryptocurrencies | Crypto News | Blockchain

 With the advent of Bitcoin, the world's premier digital currency, for the first time in history money is no longer controlled by banks or governments, but by the people who use it. But where did this currency come from? How does it work? And is it truly the way forward, or just a flash in the pan?
 
A typical comment: Money has never been the problem, the greed of mankind will always find a way to corrupt it no matter what form it takes, until you raise human consciousness to a level of understanding the harm we do to one another, the planet and the resources that belong to all of us equally just to get material crap most of us don't actually need our problems will go on. Bitcoin is not the answer, a higher human consciousness is.

Inside Iceland's Massive Bitcoin Mine

Created by a shadowy, mysterious figure – or perhaps group – going by the name of Satoshi Nakamoto, bitcoin is one of a number of cryptocurrencies that are created via computer processes which use raw mathematics and sheer computational horsepower to underwrite the value of transactions. As opposed to conventional monetary systems, which are backed by central banks, cryptocurrencies rely on the mathematical certitude of a decentralized ledger, known as a blockchain.

 

About a decade ago the first proper ‘real world’ bitcoin transaction took place, when one Laszlo Hanyecz infamously purchased two hot and  juicy Papa John’s pizzas for 10,000 bitcoins. Those 10,000 coins were only worth, at the time, around $40. Delicious as the pizzas no doubt were, if he’d only kept hold of those bitcoins they’d by now be worth somewhere north of 280 million dollars. 

Why has a chilly island in the north Atlantic become a crucial frontier in the occult, high-stakes world of crypto currency mining? An unremarkable looking cluster of sheds on the western cluster of the Nordic nation might just hold the answer. So join us today as we follow the money and take a peek inside Iceland’s insane bitcoin super mine.

NHS in Danger - Covid-19: Rapid tests for asymptomatic people to be rolled out

Another test. Another failure. The founder’s of NHS would be disgusted to see what our politicians have done to it. The NHS is in trouble because of 10 years of austerity and cut backs and mis-management at the top levels, not the virus.

 
 
Regular rapid testing for people without coronavirus symptoms will be made available across England this week. One of the viewer commented, "Intelligent people of the world, CORRECT your knowledge on the understanding of a healthy blood microbiome . This will bring a lot of clarification to  your health issues. Including today’s. Enough lies that your immune system cannot protect us, it’s protecting us fine in the poor countries, your all over medicated, here it’s a luxury, when are we going to challenge big pharma!".

Gold & Dollar: How Money Became Worthless

Wall Street is being occupied. Europe is collapsing in on itself. Around the world, people are consumed by fear and anger, and one question is on everyone's lips: Is the financial crisis over, or are we headed towards economic disaster? End of the Road is a documentary that chronicles the global financial collapse. Told in an entertaining and easy to follow style, the film tells the story of how the world came to be in such a state, from the seeds sown after WW2, to the current troubles facing us today, and to the possible future that may await us all. Some of the world's top economic minds share the hidden tale behind the mishandling of the world's finances, give insight into how bad policy and a flawed monetary system joined together to create a catastrophe, as well as sharing their own personal advice on how the average person can best prepare for their financial future.

 

It was interesting. Currency is so abstract and this and the '08 free fall illustrates just how convoluted it's become. I'm not sure 'ponzi scheme' is the best analogy for the global finance situation we're in. A single investment scheme and world markets regulated or controlled by governments are very different beasts. Every recession or depression brings inflation. Only time will tell how much. I'm skeptical about the insistence that gold is still the most real money. I'm no expert but it seems we've moved too far beyond that. I just wonder with the CEO of a gold selling website going on and on about it, that there's a conflict of interest and they may be inflating things to drum up gold sales. If I had money to save I might consider some gold just in case, to diversify. But if you have a gold bar and the economy completely tanks, I don't think there's much good that bar will do. It's not going to buy food
