Sounds really nice and cool, BUT, what happens when the central banking cabal uses its lobbying powers to make such a system illegal? They are trying right now to get legislation passed in quite a few states. Also, what happens if the internet is down because of cyber attacks? I think we need a physical option. Cash is king.
De-centralized. Organically local. Open Source. Bank on yourself.
PURPOSE: Dollar-sized ArtWorks used as advertising and gifted into the local economy. To be used by businesses and citizenry … to trade.
CONSUMER Instructions
1. Use ArtWork as you would cash for dinner, coffee, soda, tips, a massage, health care, child care, & more. Ask the community business if they take the ArtWork.
2. You may receive ArtWork in your change when buying a product locally, as a gift for a birthday, as a tip for a job well done, & more.
3. Closer to the expiration date (find date on the ArtWork), turn it back to the owner of the ArtWork and they will give you cash or more-than-equivalent services or products.
4. The more ArtWork is passed for exchange in the community before it is turned in, the more sustainable the community economy!
Get real…. Spend ArtWork…. Go local.

Wow Joe... I can't thank you enough for this! I had no idea. Will have to re-read to absorb this. You answered so many questions, however... now I have many more! Looking forward to the next chapter. Thank you!
Regrettably the acceptance of digital banking decentralized does allow for a platform in the future to centralize all transactions through a digital currency which is the ultimate plan. Elon being one and same with Neurolink which desires to make a chip for humans. Not getting all warm and fuzzy about this just my honest opinion in the dark like everyone else.
I don’t need to convince people. I knew when I wrote this article there would be a lot of pushback and people not agreeing with me on these two individuals.
I’m okay with that.
I give a different opinion because it’s what I see happening and how it ties into the bigger picture.
I think over the next few years a lot of peoples opinions will change about a lot of people.
Those of us in the Patriot - pro-freedom community - have to start learning how to operate in an environment where we understand leaders/advocates can have dual motivations. Trump is absolutely working for freedom has facilitated the death of millions with WARPSpeed. He endorsed candidates who clearly were NOT pro-life or even profreedom against true patriots in many races. McCarthy lied and covered up the truth about the 2020 Election but was willing to release the J6 tapes. Same with Josh Hawley. Refused to stand-up for the 2020 election but now has a good agenda.
Just because Trump/Musk/Noem or anyone else who we agree with on some CORE issues seem great - we can't abandon our responsibility to vet EVERYTHING they say. What if Desantis is controlled opposition to LOOK like he is the best freedom guy - but is just playing that role until he gets power? We should want a Federal government that looks more like 1817 than 1917. We should want a banking system that looks more like that as well..
I think the power is being given back to the people but you have to expose it all before the people will demand change and demand that power back in my opinion
It will be interesting to see how this new "system" can be really protected from the World's Central Bankers and why we should not fear them. They have only made slaves out of us for hunfdeds of years and I'm sure they won't go down without a fight.
Thank you Joe, gives so much hope! Amazing people who use their God given talents to create wonderful new things, then usually have it stolen by those working against good! I’m so glad Dorsey has fight in him to continue using his gifts to turn things around that were stolen, and overcome evil with good!
Blessings my friend. I don’t think people realize how big things are going to change. We are in the process of changing things and it’s easy to get lost in the disruption happening and miss the good that’s coming. I believe we are on the verge of finally escaping this global debt slavery system.
About Escaping the global debt slavery system.. Frst, this sure eases my mind, look forward to learning about the personal nodes was it 5m, anyway, one thing that comes to mind while reading, although decentralized somehow the iIRS/ fed gvt already has its greedy paws in taxing cashapp / PayPal for transaction I think over $5 or $600. So, in essence are we really freed? These Dorseys of the world are somehow providing our transaction detail, we are being taxed on our dollars, regardless of why the p2p is transacted.
(for now anyway) Evil is never going away ..this heaven and earth, but less control, more privacy is better than this now debt scam. I'm in. Thanks, Joe, was looking forward to these substack articles from you, and to the 3rd in he series 😉. Doing great by me!
Well I just tried to open an account at coinbase, and they wanted to send a confirmation code as part of their two-factor authentication, by text message. My VoIP phone, unfortunately, does not receive text messages...
Thanks, Joe -- but their website only works one way, and no humans to talk to. So they won't be getting my business. That's capitalism, for as long as we can keep it.
I sure hope we will be able to do all these things on a desktop computer with a nice BIG monitor and keyboard. It's hard for some of us old people to use little bitty phone screens for everything. Also I hope there will be some brick-and-mortar places with real human beings to help us do things. Not everybody is young and tech-savvy.
As long as these places are run by woke millennials, who design things for people like them, and who lack the imagination to understand other segments of the market, or don't even care, if you want their stuff you'll have to do it their way.
I'm over 65 but tech savvy (retired Professional Engineer and Life Fellow of my technical society) but that knowledge and experience is one of the reasons I don't have a smart phone. I understand what [they] can do using smart phones, and choose not to participate. Convenience is always the selling point -- until there are just a few of us refuseniks left, at which point the guns come out. Ah well, it was a good run while it lasted.
You will need a non-custodial digital wallet. Coinbase is not it. They hold the keys to your Bitcoin. If they go down you have nothing. You can use it to buy Bitcoin but you need to store it in a cold wallet.
I think if someone was in a wheelchair and paralyzed from the waist down would love a breakthrough that allows them to walk again. I think that would be an incredible breakthrough.
I don’t look at the negative side of things and automatically think worst case scenario or assume someone has evil motives.
I didn’t exactly trust Musk either prior to his Twitter acquisition. But everything he’s done with Twitter has benefited humanity so I’m more trusting of him now...
Thanks Joe. You said you typically see things on a positive note, not worrying excessively allows vision in my opinion. Free thinking, free flowing ideas, most people talk themselves out of a vision. You have been chosen or gifted with an uncanny ability to get past the brakes. Thank you for your hard work and commitment. People like you are so valuable and appreciated! Look forward to more!
Thank you Joe for another incredible article which got me to thinking... SpitBall here: Last November when Trump posted on TruthSocial about a “Major Announcement” which turned out to be his sale of limited addition of his NFT Cards? Maybe a Hat Tip to the new Block Chain financial system coming soon? Kind of priming us for what’s coming?
I tried to include that in my article but had to cut it out because I was already over 4000 words! I was hoping some people reading the article would make that connection because I think it’s important!
I get where you’re coming from and that issue, especially from a privacy standpoint will have to be dealt with by Trump and Congress once we’ve cleansed the government with mass arrests. When that happens, the political landscape will completely change and all Congress will be pro MAGA and the peoples rights or they will be gone.
Thanks Joe! Is Trump still the head of the Federal Reserve? What's FedNow? If Dorsey was so against what the board of directors was doing at Twitter (which Republican Congress is all over with the Twitter file), why didn't Dorsey step down or come out and expose them long before Elon came along? Sorry for all the questions I'm just a curious inquiring mind trying to keep up!
I have a future article that will explain who was really controlling Twitter. Have you noticed the Twitter files dump on certain high level individuals at Twitter and not Dorsey.
He was a figurehead.
The cabal controlled Twitter.
As for FedNow, my next article in this series will hit on that subject.
Thanks Joe. Yes, I have noticed they are leaving Dorsey alone. Maybe it was part of his exit plea bargain? Is President Trump still in charge of the Federal Reserve (rolled into Treasury Dept) like you had mentioned in a previous article?
Yes. Trump controls the Fed and is bankrupting the entire system. My next article will be the last in this series and will give the big picture and the role the Fed is playing and how Trump is directing a play.
I wasn’t a fan of Musk or Dorsey early on but my opinion has changed after going down several rabbit holes before I looked into their background. I think both of them are actually trying to help humanity even though they are both vilified every day.
I respect your opinion. I just need to do more studying on digital currency. I’ve been so concerned about how it can be controlled by the government or bank.
Sounds really nice and cool, BUT, what happens when the central banking cabal uses its lobbying powers to make such a system illegal? They are trying right now to get legislation passed in quite a few states. Also, what happens if the internet is down because of cyber attacks? I think we need a physical option. Cash is king.
We are also in the process of bankrupting the central banks. They aren’t going to exist anymore when this is all done.
Amen 🙏 🙏 🙏
A new currency backed by gold is coming. Have you read my previous Substacks? I talk about that.
People always forget the ability to barter. If you want something, trade someone else for something you have.
A couple of friends and I came up with an alternative local currency.
STEAL THIS IDEA!…PLEASE.
ART WORKS for COMMUNITY CURRENCY
K-TAW = Kindly-Tizing ArtWork :: a kind of funny money
ArtWork backed by community spirit of exchange
MISSION: We are artists banded together in partnership with businesses and community to exchange Art-Works in support of the local economy.
METHOD: Beyond permaculture currency. Barter. Banter. Build.
De-centralized. Organically local. Open Source. Bank on yourself.
PURPOSE: Dollar-sized ArtWorks used as advertising and gifted into the local economy. To be used by businesses and citizenry … to trade.

local currency if you are for 15 minute cities. Would never work in rural places only big cities
Wow Joe... I can't thank you enough for this! I had no idea. Will have to re-read to absorb this. You answered so many questions, however... now I have many more! Looking forward to the next chapter. Thank you!
Thank you for that! I have one last article to come where I’ll try to wrap this series altogether.
Regrettably the acceptance of digital banking decentralized does allow for a platform in the future to centralize all transactions through a digital currency which is the ultimate plan. Elon being one and same with Neurolink which desires to make a chip for humans. Not getting all warm and fuzzy about this just my honest opinion in the dark like everyone else.
I’m not worried about Neorolink like I’m not worried about central banks.
In my view we are winning and will win this war and everything is going to change.
The big change hasn’t happened yet.
Past history will not rule the day. A new dawn is coming.
Why are you not worried about Neurolink? Why trust Elon and Dorsey? You haven’t convinced me
I don’t need to convince people. I knew when I wrote this article there would be a lot of pushback and people not agreeing with me on these two individuals.
I’m okay with that.
I give a different opinion because it’s what I see happening and how it ties into the bigger picture.
I think over the next few years a lot of peoples opinions will change about a lot of people.
Some will shock them.
Let’s see what happens.
Those of us in the Patriot - pro-freedom community - have to start learning how to operate in an environment where we understand leaders/advocates can have dual motivations. Trump is absolutely working for freedom has facilitated the death of millions with WARPSpeed. He endorsed candidates who clearly were NOT pro-life or even profreedom against true patriots in many races.

We should want a Federal government that looks more like 1817 than 1917. We should want a banking system that looks more like that as well..
I agree. Vet everything and everybody!
I think the power is being given back to the people but you have to expose it all before the people will demand change and demand that power back in my opinion
It will be interesting to see how this new "system" can be really protected from the World's Central Bankers and why we should not fear them. They have only made slaves out of us for hunfdeds of years and I'm sure they won't go down without a fight.
I agree but that’s why we are actually in a war right now to destroy them. We’re going to win that war and central banks will no longer exist.
We are watching them go bankrupt right now.
Exactly, but not everyone understands this fact.
Very true.
Thank you Joe, gives so much hope! Amazing people who use their God given talents to create wonderful new things, then usually have it stolen by those working against good! I’m so glad Dorsey has fight in him to continue using his gifts to turn things around that were stolen, and overcome evil with good!

From the way things appear to be going, this cannot happen quickly enough.
Unfortunately it sounds like I'll have to buy a smart phone. I've managed without for all these years...
You won’t need a smartphone, they just make things more convenient which is why the digital age is exploding not only in banking but everything else.
Well I just tried to open an account at coinbase, and they wanted to send a confirmation code as part of their two-factor authentication, by text message. My VoIP phone, unfortunately, does not receive text messages...
You might need a smartphone for many of the technological advances coming but I think you can do it on your computer
Thanks, Joe -- but their website only works one way, and no humans to talk to. So they won't be getting my business. That's capitalism, for as long as we can keep it.
I completely understand the talking to humans thing. AI , especially on the phone isn’t a great selling point for businesses to me either.
Pro tip for Coinbase support, type "live human" in their online support chat and see what happens. :-)
Tried 'operator' which didn't work... I guess none of those wokesters is old enough to remember what an 'operator' is.
Have you tried Gemini, Wild Bill?
I'm also hearing that Kraken may be a better platform than Coinbase. I'm trying various things to see what I like and what works best.
I sure hope we will be able to do all these things on a desktop computer with a nice BIG monitor and keyboard. It's hard for some of us old people to use little bitty phone screens for everything. Also I hope there will be some brick-and-mortar places with real human beings to help us do things. Not everybody is young and tech-savvy.

Older folks have all the money. They need your money.
You will need a non-custodial digital wallet. Coinbase is not it. They hold the keys to your Bitcoin. If they go down you have nothing. You can use it to buy Bitcoin but you need to store it in a cold wallet.
You are correct. Thanks for pointing this out, for those who don't already know.
what about Elon's neuralink/brain chip?
I think if someone was in a wheelchair and paralyzed from the waist down would love a breakthrough that allows them to walk again. I think that would be an incredible breakthrough.
I don’t look at the negative side of things and automatically think worst case scenario or assume someone has evil motives.
I certainly don’t see that in Elon.
Think of all the wounded and maimed military people who could benefit! They laid down their bodies and lives for us.
I didn’t exactly trust Musk either prior to his Twitter acquisition. But everything he’s done with Twitter has benefited humanity so I’m more trusting of him now...
Thanks Joe. You said you typically see things on a positive note, not worrying excessively allows vision in my opinion. Free thinking, free flowing ideas, most people talk themselves out of a vision. You have been chosen or gifted with an uncanny ability to get past the brakes. Thank you for your hard work and commitment. People like you are so valuable and appreciated! Look forward to more!
That is really a kind thing to say Lisa!! Thank you for that! I appreciate you too!!
Thank you Joe for another incredible article which got me to thinking...

Great article! The most precise and comprehensive description of the future We the People want…freedom.
Thank you so much Kathleen!! That’s what’s coming!
Freedom and the people in control.
We want freedom and privacy
Everything sounded great until you mentioned "smartphones" which I do not trust.
Everything connected to Smartphones with smart as part of their name I have great doubts about.
I'd like to hear what you say about them.
Thanks for any reply in advance,
Jim B
Our phones just give us easy access and control.
In a world going digital you now have a choice to go into a bank or not.
I haven’t been in a bank in probably ten years or more.
I can do everything financially on my phone.
Competition is what’s driving innovation and choices in services away from big banks and a centralized system
Joe
This is the fourth time I secieved this copy of your reply.
The problem is not the phone as a means of doing business
but SMARTPHONE itself.
I get where you’re coming from and that issue, especially from a privacy standpoint will have to be dealt with by Trump and Congress once we’ve cleansed the government with mass arrests. When that happens, the political landscape will completely change and all Congress will be pro MAGA and the peoples rights or they will be gone.
From your lips to God's ear! Great article; lots to ponder. Bigly looking forward to the next one!!
Extremely Interesting as always, thxs Joe Lange
I really appreciate you Adri!! Blessings friend

BIGLY looking forward to that next one!
Thanks Joe! This information gives me hope.
I really appreciate that James! I’m here to encourage and give an alternate narrative to the constant doom and gloom.
Thanks Joe! I'm still digesting all the info you crammed into this great post.
It was really long and I had to cut a lot out before I submitted it.😁😁
Then we can look forward to a Part 2, lol. I learned some things about Musk's history in business, and his mindset, with Part 1, thanks.
I wasn’t a fan of Musk or Dorsey early on but my opinion has changed after going down several rabbit holes before I looked into their background. I think both of them are actually trying to help humanity even though they are both vilified every day.
My last article in this series will focus more on Trump and the big picture
I respect your opinion. I just need to do more studying on digital currency. I’ve been so concerned about how it can be controlled by the government or bank.
Your concerns are certainly valid. I have the same concerns.
The real question is who do you think is going to be in charge of the system in the end?
The enemy or Trump?
I believe it will be Trump and he will make sure our currency is secured and once again backed by gold.
