I’m fascinated by Funny Money ideas that recycle themselves into mainstream politics every now and then, and Gerard Rennick’s new Party looks like it’s got great potential for some very freaky old ideas #FractionalReserve #PhobosHollow

DID YOU KNOW: In the #USA, banks are NOT required to have even a dollar of customer deposit on hand. The #FederalReserve lowered the reserve requirement to ZERO three years ago during the early days of COVID lockdown.

Reserve Requirements

The Federal Reserve Board of Governors in Washington DC.

The fed in 1993 on removing banking reserve requirements:

"this proposal would clearly eliminate the reserve tax, recent experience suggests that it would also engender a significant increase in volatility in the reserves market and seriously complicate... open market operations. Absent reserve requirements, the Fed Reserve would be unable to reinstitute an effective, reserves-oriented procedure to control
money growth if it ever deemed this action appropriate."

The real reason why #bitcoin fiat valuation goes down. Most people own IOU's, not bitcoin. I fear this week is only the beginning of the reckoning of this reckless game of musical chairs. #Hodl on to your sats.

"Each quarter Tether will need to show the NYAG their reserves."

"This document revealed to me shocking inadequacies in corporate controls, management of reserves, and seems to show a pattern of corporate malfeasance."
