Epstein-linked MIT lab has already funded 3 central bank digital currency trials

LifeSite News: Unbeknownst to most, US banks have participated in three CBDC pilot programs, two of which are ongoing and one of which is considering assigning digital ‘tokens’ to all assets.

An author and political activist shared that the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)’s Media Lab, which has direct links to child trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, has funded three central bank digital currency (CBDC) pilot (trial) programs, two of which are ongoing and none of which have been covered by the mainstream media.

In contrast with other forms of digital currency, CBDCs require that individuals open bank accounts directly with central banks such as the Federal Reserve, giving governments control over citizens’ access to money and opening the door to unprecedented tyranny.

Aaron Day, author of the 2023 book The Final Countdown that warns of the “imminent” threat of CBDCs, noted in an article for the Brownstone Institute that even before President Joe Biden signed an executive order in March 2022 hastening the establishment of CBDCs, the Federal Reserve was “well underway” in developing CBDCs.

U.S. banks have participated in three CBDC pilot programs relatively recently launched with funding from the MIT Media lab, which has received funding in turn from the notorious financier and sex offender Epstein. Disgraced Joi Ito, the former director of the Media Lab who visited Epstein’s private island according to Slate, also personally benefited from generous Epstein funding. Read More…

Opinion: Oh what a tangled web we weave…

The likely and unlikely players:

  • The late Jeffrey Epstein
  • Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Media Lab
  • President Joe Biden
  • Federal Reserve Bank/Fed Now instant payment system
  • International Monetary Fund (IMF)
  • Bank of international Settlements (BIS)
  • JP Morgan, State Street Bank, Bank of NY Mellon
  • Executive Order 14067
  • Project Hamilton, Project Cedar, Regulated Liability Network

Opinion:  On July 30, 2023 my interview on Prophecy Today Radio with Jimmy DeYoung JR. was about the launch of FedNow:

Jimmy: On July 20, the Federal Reserve announced that the FedNow program became live in what you told me was a very quiet launch. What is going on?

Me. That is correct Jimmy. In fact, the launch of the Fed’s instant payment system was so quiet that if not for our financial editor, I might have missed the opening day.

What is curious is that the launch of FedNow is eerily similar to how the Biden admin and Federal Reserve have downplayed CBDCs for the past three years – all the while issuing Executive Order 14067, writing white papers, and test marketing it in the Federal Reserve Bank of NY.

Jimmy: So with FedNow in place will a CBDC follow soon?

Me:. It may be here already. The soft launch of FedNow could be the way a CBDC becomes implemented slowly and quietly, so that almost no one will notice until it is too late.

Here we are 8 months later and it is astounding how quiet the news has been even though major U.S. banks have already participated in three recent CBDC pilot programs, two of which are ongoing.

Condensed from the Article: The completed Project Hamilton explored the “technical feasibility” of a functioning CBDC, while Project Cedar is studying cross-country and bank-to-bank CBDC transactions, and the Regulated Liability Network (RLN) is exploring, disturbingly, the assignment of digital tokens for all value assets so that all transactions can be centrally tracked and settled by the government and other parties.

According to Day, the most disturbing CBDC pilot being carried out is the Regulated Liability Network (RLN).

“It’s one database, basically, to track all CBDCs and non-CBDC transactions,” Day explained to Knight during their recent interview. “What’s really frightening is the idea of tokenizing everything… every asset you have can have a digital token associated with it.”

Imagine a future where every asset you buy (stocks, bonds, homes, cars, electronics, jewelry, etc.) is issued as digital tokens that can be tracked and settled by the government and other third parties through a centralized framework. In addition to being able to censor and freeze your money if you don’t behave the way those in control demand, they can also block the sale and perhaps even the use of your assets.

Imagine that you buy a computer with a CBDC. A digital token is created that is associated with that computer. If you engaged in behavior that the authorities didn’t like, they could track your computer and remotely disable your ability to use it or sell it.

Aaron Day believes we could see digital currencies prior to the 2024 election.

Enter former President Donald J. Trump:

There is only one world leader standing in the way of the globalist dream of complete money control.

During a campaign speech in New Hampshire, Trump vowed to prevent the creation of a U.S. central bank digital currency (CBDC) if reelected, calling it a “dangerous threat to freedom.”

He warned that a CBDC would give the federal government “absolute control over your money” and the ability to seize funds without individuals’ knowledge.”

Is it any wonder that the globalists have thrown every legal maneuver known to man to try to stop him?

My question is, what event will be used to justify the greatest threat to liberty in history? A dollar crash, a massive terrorist attack on US soil or perhaps a cyberattack?

According to Aaron Day the CBDC infrastructure is already in place.

Jimmy’s final question to me on July 30: So RC how does this relate to Bible prophecy?

Me: On our website we call the coming new financial order the ‘infrastructure’ for the future dictator.

When Antichrist arrives, he will have 3.5 years to win over an unrepentant world – followed by 3.5 years when he will be exposed as Satan’s man.

Revelation 13:4 asks a question: Who can make war with him? To which the only answer is Jesus Christ, who will destroy Antichrist with the brightness of His coming” 2 Thess 2:8.
