Ben Armstrong’s latest exploration, captured by the CoinSpeech team, delves into the intricacies of Bitcoin and tokenization. In his recent appearance, Armstrong exposes the underlying motives and future implications of these digital innovations. Below, you can find Armstrong’s newest video for more insights.
The Hidden Agenda of Tokenization
Armstrong describes Bitcoin as a Trojan horse designed to familiarize society with digital currencies and tokenization: “Bitcoin was designed and used to get us used to the idea of tokenization and digital currencies.” He believes that the ultimate goal extends beyond mere digital transactions to a broader scheme of integrating all assets digitally, linking them to an individual’s digital identity.
Perception Management and Government Plans
During his conversation, Armstrong connected tokenization with the concept of perception management: “Managing how you perceive things and therefore how you move forward is a formalized government plan.” By fragmenting assets like home equity into smaller, manageable tokens, individuals are nudged—often without recognizing it—to utilize their equity in new, potentially detrimental ways.
The Volunteer Trap
A significant revelation from Armstrong is the notion of voluntary surrender: “If you volunteer it, you look in the mirror and you blame yourself.” Unlike direct seizures of assets, tokenization encourages individuals to willingly spend their assets, leading to more self-blame rather than recognizing the broader controlling forces at play. This concept mirrors the gradual erosion of Middle America, driven by giants like Amazon.
The Struggles of Middle America
Armstrong draws parallels between the digital tokens and the downfall of Middle America: “Middle America is virtually gone… H early 2000s with Amazon.” He asserts that while former small business owners now work for corporate giants, they often blame themselves for their economic hardships, not recognizing the rigged system that favors larger corporations.
Control Structures and the Media
Armstrong emphasizes the role of media and control structures in shaping public perception: “They try to Discount you and discredit you… when in reality we’re giving you information that’s all easily searchable.” He calls out how algorithms and media outlets manipulate the narrative, steering attention away from the real information.
A Call for Paradigm Shift
Armstrong concludes with an urgent call for awareness: “What we’re asking people to do is have a paradigm shift.” He recognizes that many long-standing beliefs are simply not true and urges newer generations to challenge these concepts. Highlighting the shift away from the “American Dream” towards a reality marked by increasing student debt and economic inequality, Armstrong sees potential for peaceful transformation through informed decision-making.
