I notice there is a focus in this article on wealthy tech elites, as though the financial and corporate elites outside of Silicon Valley are somehow different. If anything the latter are more entrenched and corrupt and close to the fiat spigot -- they're the ones who leant money to the tech startups in the first place.
Thoughts? There are structural things wrong with the economy, the "everything bubble" etc, increasing inflation and financialization of everything. This article really seems to be passing the buck from establishment and finance to tech, and then also subtly priming people to think crypto is illegitimate. It asks how the wealthy will pay their guards in a disaster scenario. How would they pay them with pointless fiat that can't buy a week's groceries if shit truly hits the fan, anyway?

Don't call them "elites". Are not elites, are scumbags, worms, parasites.

I don't understand your post. You think the wealthy aren't doing this? Or that everything will be "fine"?

The wealthy doing this is no indication if a big apocalypse will come or not. Chances are that most of them have no clues either just like every human. For people like old money families or Mark Zucc you can be assured that he's just doing this for the eventuality while being aware that it is unlikely either way

"you can be assured"... no... I can't.
