On one hand there are the bankster fraudsters trying to rip everybody off. On the other hand there are governments trying to do the same. The little guy keeps getting squeezed in their system.

Buy gold and silver to have something outside of their squeezing.
 
Nothing to see, can listen in one tab, play around the forum in a different tab.

Whether tokenization could be a back door to a Great Taking depends a lot on the nature/characteristics of the blockchain that is used for the tokenization. This is where the issue of decentralization and transaction immutability become paramount.

Tokenization itself is not problematic. We have many mechanisms for making legal claims to real property. It's the nature of the underlying blockchain where potential risks lie.

 

The Great Taking: How Your Assets Will Be Seized Without You Knowing​

The great taking is a book about how the financial system can collapse overnight and all of your assets that are not held directly with your person can be seized. It's a pretty frightening scenario and today I want to talk about how this could happen and how realistic this is.

"Could it happen on a smaller scale?"

It already has, Michael. Chrysler "secured" bondholders - those given first rights to physical assets in event of bankruptcy - were denied compensation by ObamaJust-Us De Partment rulings. Indiana state pension plans were given 29 cents on the dollar, WHILE the physical properties transferred unencumbered to Fiat. Private secured bondholders - who bought them BECAUSE they were "secured" - were told to copulate off.
