You may have never heard the term ‘expiring money’. Expiring money is basically money that comes with an expiration date. In other words, on a certain date in the future, it’s value will fall to zero.
According to the World Bank Blog (Part 1 and Part 2), expiring money is programmable money. It can transfer ownership, transfer value and be redeemable at a maturity date.
In ‘Expiring Money (Part 1)’ the authors Bossone and Faragallah expound on a few more of the applications of this utility:
…’Programmable money could eventually allow for far-reaching scenarios where the government limits access to scarce resources, applying dynamic fees on the use of, say, electricity or tolled roads, based on their usage or carbon emission measurements, and attaching pay-per-use systems to houses and cars, as discussed by Casey (2020).’…
One could also envision the powers that be using this technology to limit availability to buy food or to shut out certain persons from buying food altogether. After seeing people lose livelihoods because they refused to take the jab, it is not hyperbole to assume that access to food could be modified because an individual didn’t agree with the unilateral authoritarian control directive that would be enforced through an expiring monetary ‘smart contract’.
Use your imagination. From toll roads to electricity to housing availability, there is almost no end to the restrictions that a totalitarian authority could place on its populace through the application of ‘expiring money’.
The authors of the aforementioned World Bank Blog have said as much:
…’This could be very useful for central banks and governments distributing aid to people during severe recessions or events like pandemics or calamities, when higher uncertainty makes people spend less.’…
When economic and geo-political situations become insecure for the average person, they reduce their spending and save more because they are less assured of what tomorrow brings.
Author Mike Maloney has described this as an end game scenario of a dollar collapse in Episode 7 of his hit video series ‘The Hidden Secrets of Money’. Please consider watching the 1/2 hour video. For a synopsis of this concept you may watch minutes 22 to 28:30 in the video.
When the economy is unstable and the currency is weakening, the average person reduces their spending, even in the face of tax cuts and other policies that would put money in their pocket. They basically hold onto more of their money for longer (i.e. under the mattress). It is then that Uncle Sam will have to resort to drastic measures known as ‘helicopter money’ to print and give the populace enough money to get them to spend it in order to stimulate economic activity by increasing the velocity of money.
When he released Episode 7 of his video series 6 years ago, Mike Maloney composed a masterful look at how the endgame of the destruction of the greenback will play out. There is however one issue that not even Mr. Maloney considered. That is the potential for the additional weaponization of the currency through the use of ‘expiring money’.
Of course, money with an expiration date will be sure to help achieve the goal of the acceleration of the turnover of money in the economy. That is what the money printers objective will be. After all, who will let their money go to a value of zero when they can at least buy a bobble or a radish with it? The use of the ‘expiring money’ will at least temporarily stabilize the currency to some degree. But only for a while. Before too long, everyone will realize that the money is literally worth nothing. Then they will spend all of the ‘expiring money’ as soon as it is received which will cause a hyperinflationary spiral of prices higher to levels that people will not be able to comprehend. Then, even the ‘expiring money’ will be worthless.
At that point they will concede that the game is over and the country will have to issue a currency based on something that is real. Something of value. A currency based on commodities that have real utility in the life of a person who must operate in a real world.
Unfortunately for the money printers in the US and the bloggers at the World Bank, someone is creating a currency based on commodities (like gold) that have value. They are called the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) nations. It is not something that is coming in the future. It is something that is happening now.
Gold is the Nemesis of the PetroDollar.
The PetroDollar gets its name from Saudi Arabia (SA) agreeing to sell oil to the world denominated only in US Dollars and in return, SA received military protection from the US. After the messy exit of the US from Afghanistan in 2021 that deal basically came to a close.
In a recent post by Dr. Stephen Leeb, Ph.D. He opined about the importance of Xi’s trip to Saudi Arabia in the context of the rise of a new world reserve currency:
…’Honestly, I’ll be very frank with you. I thought gold was going to definitely break $1600 and go somewhere into the $1500s but it stopped when there was more news that Xi Jinping was going to visit Saudi Arabia. This really made it much more apparent that something was up. The key to the petrodollar country, like all the other Arab countries, is gold. Xi Jinping making a trip there would undoubtedly seal the deal of a potential BRICS alliance. If that’s the case, then the beginning of the end of the petrodollar is upon us… And a new BRICS gold backed reserve currency will rise like a phoenix from the ashes.’…
So it is now evident that the US Dollar is going to have a big chunk taken out of its monetary a$$. What does that mean for Americans?
You may have worked for 30-50 years squirreling away all of your savings in dollar denominated assets. When the US dollar starts to capitulate and capsize what will happen to the value and purchasing power of those same dollar denominated assets? When the BRICS nations roll out a gold-linked or a gold-backed world reserve currency, who will want dollar denominated assets?
When there are no international buyers for US debt (Treasuries), what will happen to the price of dollar denominated assets? When you pinch and hold onto every penny that you can get your hands on and you see your financial future sliding into the abyss, then the money printers will issue you your stipend of ‘expiring money’ to grease the wheels of the economy. Then after they spend their new and soon to be worthless money, Joe and Jolene Six Pack will realize that those dollar denominated assets now cannot support their ability to pay the bills and the whole system grinds to a halt.
Then the money printers will have no other alternative but to turn to an asset (i.e. gold/precious metals/commodity) backed currency like their competitor, the BRICS, has already done.
Of course, the BRICS nations will be light years ahead and thriving in the light of prosperity and relatively even weights and measures so even the emerging market economies in the BRICS are thriving. By the way, the price of gold and other precious metals will likely be light years ahead of where they are now as well.
Meanwhile, the average American will be financially devastated and will never recover. If only they would have seen the light and invested even a relatively small amount of their assets into precious metals they might have retained their purchasing power and would be able to carry on (this is not financial advice-consult a financial professional).
When the helicopters arrive in your neighborhood and start dropping ‘expiring money’ relief packages like so many MRE’s and chocolate bars over a war torn landscape, the opportunity to change the fortunes for you and your family have expired like the ‘expiring money’ that just hit the ground in front of you.
You could have bought some gold.
You could have bought some silver.
But instead you bought the line from the mainstream media. The ones who tell you the the economy is great and so is the job market. The same ones that told you that the jab was safe and effective.
Will you wait until the US Dollar comes to be known as ‘Expiring Money’ or will you wise up like the BRICS nations and base your financial future on precious metals that never expire (again, this is not financial advice)?

The corrupted cataclysmic carnival crash of cryptocurrency embodied in the FTX debacle is not something that one can yet, codify.
On Tuesday we got our first glimpse into the forensic effort to see exactly what happened to the money. A Zero Hedge article (courtesy of WSJ and Bloomberg) details the synopsis of the first day of the bankruptcy hearing in the case of FTX. The highlights include:
-…’A “substantial amount” of failed crypto exchange FTX’s assets is missing and may have been stolen’…
-…’FTX was in the control of inexperienced and unsophisticated individuals, and some or all of them were compromised individuals’…
-…’FTX’s rapid downfall triggered an "unprecedented" bankruptcy, causing many standard procedures, such as this hearing, to be delayed.’…
-…’Information about FTX’s biggest creditors will remain redacted for now.‘…
-…’FTX expanded the number of affected customers and creditors from a "million" to millions.’…
I share all of this with you for two reasons. First, it becomes abundantly clear that all the facts about what happened to the FTX money/assets have yet to be discovered. The fact that …’Information about FTX’s biggest creditors will remain redacted for now.‘… highlights the fact that the public will be kept in the dark about who was involved, how much were they involved, what happened to the FTX that was in their possession and did they use that crypto to employ leverage (borrowing from crypto or traditional lenders) in order to make even bigger bets-either in crypto or other markets?
Secondly, and more importantly, the fact that FTX is entwined with crypto lenders like Genesis Trading who are now on the doorstep of bankruptcy themselves, gives the ominous thought as to ‘just how big can this problem get’?
When theft, bankruptcy, millions of customers, use of margin and the involvement of potentially an almost incalculable amount of derivatives collide, a calamity of generational proportions fills the air, our vision and the screens in front of us.
In order to get the complicated and serious answers to the important questions in front of us, I reached out to Financial and Precious Metals expert, Mr. Bill Holter.
Bill Holter worked as a Stockbroker for 23 years and as a Branch Manager for 12 of those at A. G. Edwards. Bill had a multi year collaboration with precious metal legend Jim Sinclair and after writing for them, Bill still represents Miles Franklin as a precious metals broker.
Bill, liquidity is a real issue. Janet Yellen recently alluded to the fact that there are no buyers for long term treasuries. During the last month the Japanese 10 year Benchmark JGB did not trade for four consecutive trading sessions. When investors don’t want to buy long term, supposedly high quality 1st world debt, they are either opting for other credits or just staying out of the way. Does this mark a pending implosion of the credit markets? If so, what effect has the central bank money printing had and what effect does this type of market activity have on the derivatives market for these securities?
What Janet Yellen is talking about here is "monetization" without using the word itself. She describes a situation where there are no natural buyers for Treasury debt which forces the central bank to act as the buyer of last resort. In effect, the left hand (Treasury) issues bonds and the right hand (Fed) is forced to buy as no one else will. History is full of illustrations of outright monetization, in each instance the currency ended up becoming worthless. I would ask, how is liquidity a problem after global central banks created $ trillions of debt/money supply during Covid? The answer is simple, we are now in a place where the global debt outstanding is unpayable because the money supply outstanding falls far short of what is needed to pay principal and interest. As for derivatives, this is over a $2 quadrillion market which dwarfs ALL central banks combined ability to come to the rescue once they break.
What is your impression of the role that margin plays in the derivatives market and are we starting to see the possibility of something akin to cascading collateralized derivatives defaults? How fast can it happen and how big can the problem get?
As I mentioned, derivatives are many multiples larger than central banks combined. With inflation front and center, central banks have been forced to aggressively raise rates ...on to a system that is grossly over leveraged ...a deadly combination. Worse, all derivatives are originally created with an interest rate assumption, the much higher current rates have surely created margin calls. To this point the margin calls have been hidden-once they become public, the realization will hit hard that the entire system is being margin called. The collapse can (and I believe will) happen overnight. Most likely from a Friday close to a Monday where markets cannot open.
Because of the FTX debacle, is there an unfolding situation with margin calls with investors who either used leverage with traditional securities to buy FTX who borrowed money directly from a traditional bank or perhaps from a crypto lender (like Genesis Trading (who received $140 million equity infusion from their parent Digital Currency Group the day after the FTX bankruptcy filing) (https://genesistrading.com/)?
We now know this situation was a fraud from day one. I believe FTX is only the tip of the iceberg and will spread through the crypto exchanges and ultimately the cryptos themselves like the Black Plague. What was touted as a way to avoid fiat currencies, will ultimately end up being a roach motel.
How much leverage and how much danger is involved with the activity of crypto lenders/hedgers who have been engaged in things like using margin/debt/crypto/derivatives to engage customers in risky yield strategies (such as https://genesistrading.com/yield-services) among other risky things they might be doing?
I do not know the total size of lending, but we already see it was too much in relation to the now much lower values of the crypto currencies themselves. Margin is a double-edged sword, it speeds the movement upwards which feels good, margin also accelerates the downside and exposes fraud. Ironically, the failure of lending in the crypto arena will very likely expose the system as a whole. There is more debt outstanding (not to mention derivatives) than can ever be repaid, a ‘global margin call’ will expose this mathematical certainty. As always, margin calls will expose the fact that collectively the world is swimming naked. Margin calls (ultimately created by higher interest rates) will act like the tide viciously going out!
Bill, what should people be doing right now?
Do the best you can to become as self sufficient as possible. No one knows how bad things will get, nor which ‘services’ will no longer be available. The powers that be have already told you their plans, it will be best in the future if you do not need to rely on these powers as they do not have your best interests at heart!
Bill, thank you so much for being so generous with your time and the wisdom of your insights. It is appreciated.

This is a re-posting of this article I originally posted at this time last year.
Many thanks to Danny at Deep South Homestead for his podcast on George Washington’s Thanksgiving Proclamation of October 3, 1789.
After reading this profound and yet succinct declaration it is indeed sobering to realize just to what depths that These United States have fallen. It is God who gives us our sustenance. It is God who for so many years has rendered mercy for a sometimes stiff necked people. And because where the Lord is, there is liberty:
“Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.”
2 Corinthians 3:17 KJV
https://bible.com/bible/1/2co.3.17.KJV
Please prayerfully consider what God has done for you, your family, your community and your nation before you enjoy the bounty of a Thanksgiving meal. Please pray for those that have no one and no where to go. Pray for the disabled/special needs as in my experience many who live in institutions have -no one- who will come to see them on America’s holiday. Give special thanks to God and to our servicemen and servicewomen who have protected our country since its inception. Please also prayerfully consider below George Washington’s Thanksgiving Proclamation of October 3, 1789 as you literally ‘give thanks’:

Thanksgiving Proclamation,
3 October 1789
Thanksgiving Proclamation
[New York, 3 October 1789]
By the President of the United States of America. a Proclamation.
Whereas it is the duty of all Nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey his will, to be grateful for his benefits, and humbly to implore his protection and favor—and whereas both Houses of Congress have by their joint Committee requested me “to recommend to the People of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many signal favors of Almighty God especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness.”
Now therefore I do recommend and assign Thursday the 26th day of November next to be devoted by the People of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being, who is the beneficent Author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be—That we may then all unite in rendering unto him our sincere and humble thanks—for his kind care and protection of the People of this Country previous to their becoming a Nation—for the signal and manifold mercies, and the favorable interpositions of his Providence which we experienced in the course and conclusion of the late war—for the great degree of tranquillity, union, and plenty, which we have since enjoyed—for the peaceable and rational manner, in which we have been enabled to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national One now lately instituted—for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed; and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and in general for all the great and various favors which he hath been pleased to confer upon us.
and also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech him to pardon our national and other transgressions—to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually—to render our national government a blessing to all the people, by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed—to protect and guide all Sovereigns and Nations (especially such as have shewn kindness unto us) and to bless them with good government, peace, and concord—To promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the encrease of science among them and us—and generally to grant unto all Mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as he alone knows to be best.
Given under my hand at the City of New-York the third day of October in the year of our Lord 1789.
Go: Washington

I guess that we didn’t know that people who are allegedly responsible for the loss of billions of customer assets get to go to large speaking engagements with politicians, take advantage of US bankruptcy laws and apparently remain unquestioned by a supposedly responsible and unbiased legal system.

I post this because, in my humble opinion, the other side of the story about the war in the Ukraine must be told to balance the onslaught of the propaganda from the mainstream media of the west.
From the Armstrong blog post: …’This war will NOT be confined to just Ukraine you can watch it on TV as if it is some video game.’…
