acchain alternative financial media story: It’s true based on what we dont know!
Video Commentary to “One Global Currency To Enslave Us All “
Top economic story:
Alt Financial Media Speculates Wildly on IMF/SDR Offering
Watch: One Coin to Enslave Us All
Start with a premise then find facts and omissions and speculate and present a speculator as an expert. Then, let the imagination and insistence that there is a scheme going on to “enslave humanity” (and therefore you need to buy gold) kick in and the followers of this “smart lady” repeat it and insist its true. Having established there exists a scheme, debunking it becomes the task of trolls.
The acchain ICO is Not an IMF Scheme
Anyone who has ever been involved even tangentially in markets knows that Americans are often excluded from offerings due to SEC registration requirements and liabilities under securities laws- its not something deeply suspicious designed to “prevent Americans from protecting themselves” (against the dangers of globablization that can only be mitigated by buying digitized TEA tokens from acchain)
Also referencing SDRs doesnt mean the company is involved with the IMF. Again, any one who knows just a little about SDRs knows that private companies dont issue them and the IMF no way no how would ever get the approval from 189 member companies to let a private company issue a SDR that would be globally traded – by every one but Americans – how is that a global currency? For more on SDRs see:
