銀行へのサイバー攻撃とデジタル通貨移行、キルウェア演習

The cyberattack seems like a very possible scenario because it's a way for the banks to absolve themselves of any role in a financial crisis.

Um, it's an easy way to, uh, consolidate banks so that only systemically important ones survive the hack.

Um, and it could also potentially be a very effective means of onboarding people onto this new digital currency paradigm.

So, for example, let's say this financial, um, cyber, uh, this cyberattack on the banks takes place, and they say, "Well, the existing money in your account has disappeared.

The hackers took it, but we can return to you the exact same amount of money you had, but it won't be in the dollars you had before.

It will be in USDC or this dollar-backed stablecoin, or it will be this token."

So you can get an equivalent amount of money back, right, um, from the money that was stolen from you, but it has to be this new money.

It has to be part of this new system. There's the potential here for people to steal money from you and then s- essentially give it back to you, but with new conditions and with a new, like, social contract.

Yeah. You voluntarily accepted this new system and voluntarily onboarded to this, um, new paradigm, but it's a coercion to an extreme degree.

All of your money was stolen, right? And now you can only get it back if you take it in the form of the digital dollars that we approve of or the, you know, the CBDC, depending on where you are, you know? Mm-hmm.

So the head of DHS, Alexander Mayorkas, has said on record that the next big threat to Americans is a cybersec- cybersecurity event that he called killware.

And killware certainly sounds very scary, but if you read the existing definition of it, it does, it, it refers to cyberattacks on essential infrastructure that has the potential to kill people.

So it doesn't necessarily kill people like in the name, but it attacks things like water systems, the power grid, essential infrastructure, uh, that people rely on every day.

This company called Cybereason in 2020 actually simulated a massive killware attack that was targeting a US presidential election.

And the way they conducted this killware simulation, which they did with DHS and some US law enforcement agencies, uh, was to get the US presidential election canceled and martial law declared.

So they basically, through that simulation, established what types of hacks, uh, could succeed in achieving, uh, the declaration of martial law and the cancellation of a US presidential election, which is pretty un- pretty extreme.

So, yeah. So why are they doing that? Why?

I don't know.
