MT GOX TO PAY BACK THE MISSING BITCOIN

 What nature of scam is this? The official story is that Mt. Gox was a bitcoin exchange based in Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan, that was launched in 2010.

It is said to have been handling over 70% of all Bitcoin (BTC) buys/sells worldwide by February 2014, when it suspended trading, closed its website and exchange service, and filed for bankruptcy protection from creditors. 

It claimed that hundreds of thousands of bitcoin—back then worth around $400 million, now worth $45 billion had been stolen in an elaborate heist. It had practically no remaining funds with which to process withdrawals.

Moving on 10 years and the story is that the Mt. Gox estate is now sitting on 200,000 bitcoin that has been recovered from a “forgotten” wallet, previously assumed by the exchange to be empty, but that had not been drained by the hackers. 

A rehabilitation plan was approved by the Tokyo courts in June 2023 and the final date for customers to be repaid was set for October 31, 2024.

Like most official stories, it's unlikely that any of this is true, so I won't even get into any of that side of things. What is interesting is the effect that this upcoming mass dumping of Bitcoin is having on the market right now in July 2024. 

Not surprisingly the entire crypto market has had a big drop. I have long suspected that crypto markets are being constantly manipulated up and down by big investors like Blackrock with the goal of enabling them to buy low and sell high. 

Or, given that they know in advance when each rise or fall will be, they don't even need to do that, because they can profit on the drops as well. As they are manipulating all the rises and falls, they always know what is coming.

This entire story sounds to me about as legitimate as the moon landing, or 911, or covid. But it makes no difference, the crypto markets are getting spanked right now. 

Fluoride is absorbed through the skin

Fluoride is also absorbed through the skin so unless you have full household filtration you are absorbing it every time you shower...

 

Some facts about fluoride

– Fluoride is a waste by-product of the fertilizer and aluminum industry and it’s also a Part II Poison under the UK Poisons Act 1972.

– Fluoride is one of the basic ingredients in both PROZAC (FLUoxetene Hydrochloride) and Sarin nerve gas (Isopropyl-Methyl-Phosphoryl FLUoride).

– 97% of western Europe has rejected fluoridated water due to the known health risks, however most New Zealander's are being forced to drink it and the NZ government is trying to fast track the fluoridation of the entire country’s water supply.

– In Germany, Belgium and Luxembourg fluoridation of water was rejected because it was classified as compulsive medication against the subject’s will and therefore violated fundamental human rights.

– In November of 2006, the American Dental Association (ADA) advised that parents should avoid giving babies fluoridated water.

– Other sources of fluoride include: fluoride dental products, fluoride pesticides, fluoridated pharmaceuticals, processed foods made with fluoridated water, and tea.

Remembering Ian Curtis

 Yesterday I posted a link to a Joy Division playing their song "Transmission" on a friends Facebook timeline - I described it as "The tightest performance of all time"

Later that day I was passing through Newtown, past the Ian Curtis memorial. I took a snapshot from the bus.

That monument has been there for most of my life, and it's one of the few monuments that have always really meant something to me. I'm always a bit stunned when people don't know who Ian Curtis was.

 

 

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division

It even looks like something classic, beyond its time or place of origin even as it was a clear product of both -- one of Peter Saville's earliest and best designs, a transcription of a signal showing a star going nova, on a black embossed sleeve. If that were all Unknown Pleasures was, it wouldn't be discussed so much, but the ten songs inside, quite simply, are stone-cold landmarks, the whole album a monument to passion, energy, and cathartic despair.

The quantum leap from the earliest thrashy singles to Unknown Pleasures can be heard through every note, with Martin Hannett's deservedly famous production -- emphasizing space in the most revelatory way since the dawn of dub -- as much a hallmark as the music itself. Songs fade in behind furtive noises of motion and activity, glass breaks with the force and clarity of doom, and minimal keyboard lines add to an air of looming disaster -- something, somehow, seems to wait or lurk beyond the edge of hearing.

But even though this is Hannett's album as much as anyone's, the songs and performances are the true key. Bernard Sumner redefined heavy metal sludge as chilling feedback fear and explosive energy, Peter Hook's instantly recognizable bass work was at once warm and forbidding, and Stephen Morris' drumming smacked through the speakers above all else. Ian Curtis synthesizes and purifies every last impulse, his voice shot through with the desire first and foremost to connect, only connect -- as "Candidate" plaintively states, "I tried to get to you/You treat me like this."

Pick any song: the nervous death dance of "She's Lost Control"; the harrowing call for release "New Dawn Fades," all four members in perfect sync; the romance in hell of "Shadowplay"; "Insight" and its nervous drive toward some sort of apocalypse. All visceral, all emotional, all theatrical, all perfect -- one of the best albums ever.  

 

 

 

 

Fluoride Stupidity & Population Control

Sodium fluoride, a hazardous-waste by-product from the manufacture of aluminum, is a common ingredient in rat and cockroach poisons, anesthetics, hypnotics, psychiatric drugs, and military nerve gas. It’s historically been quite expensive to properly dispose of, until some aluminum industries with an overabundance of the stuff sold the public on the insane but highly profitable idea of selling it at a 20,000% markup, injecting it into our water supplies, and then forcing the public to DRINK it.

Fluoride is injected into our drinking water supply at approx. 1 part-per-million (ppm), but since we only drink 0.5% of the total water supply, the remaining 99.5% literally goes down the drain as a free hazardous-waste disposal for the chemical industry

Independent scientific evidence repeatedly showing up over the past 50 years reveals that fluoride shortens our life span, promotes cancer and various mental disturbances, accelerates osteoporosis and broken hips in old folks, and makes us stupid, docile, and subservient.

There are reports of aluminum in the brain being a causative factor in Alzheimer’s Disease, and evidence points towards fluoride’s strong affinity for aluminum and also its ability to “trick” the blood-brain barrier by looking like the hydrogen ion, and thus allowing chemical access to brain tissue.
