The world is currently witnessing a massive push by governments toward forced digitalization of identities and assets. Switzerland and the UK government are trying to mandate that all subjects submit to digital ID in order to work or participate in society. Government officials in the United States are pushing for every subject to obtain “Real ID” in order to fly commercially or even enter government buildings.
Recently, Larry Fink, the CEO of BlackRock (the world’s most powerful investment corporation) gave an interview in which Fink said BlackRock is trying to “tokenize” all the world’s “financial assets”—and, ultimately, all the world’s physical assets. This forbodes a future in which all “assets” will be placed on a “general ledger” as “ETFs.”
ETFs (Exchange-Traded Funds) are investment assets which appear on blockchain ledgers for trading. Obvious examples include cryptocurrencies.
Ultimately, BlackRock and World Economic Forum seek a world in which all people and objects will be identified on government-approved digital ledgers. Governments will monitor (and, ultimately, control) all transactions.
“The logic is that everything can be transformed into a digital token, fractionalized, easily transferable, and recorded on a single global «ledger.»”
“The mechanism is always the same: it involves converting something physical and tangible into a series of fractionalizable digital records. That allows large investment funds to buy pieces of everything, from hectares of land to portions of the Amazon jungle, from water reserves to bonds of peripheral countries’ debt.”
