The digital euro: a step towards total control? The best way to prepare for what's coming is to be informed, flexible and mobile. 

It's official: the digital euro will be introduced in Europe on 1 November 2025. What looks like a technical advance at first glance could actually be the start of a new era of total control and expropriation by central banks and governments. This is because the digital euro will make our money completely programmable.

The event opens a window of opportunity (despite all the drama)! Because intelligent people will (soon) understand the urgency of arming themselves with the necessary knowledge and technical understanding. This means that PlusX2 will place even more emphasis on training in security, freedom from access and control.

The hidden dangers of the digital euro

The digital euro brings with it a number of potentially threatening changes:

- Savings can be frozen and expropriated at any time.
- Wages have an expiry date and must be spent on time.
- Every transaction is monitored - negative interest can be debited directly from your account - your consumer behaviour is controlled and monitored.

The road to bondage

The introduction of the digital euro is a creeping process that has been in preparation for years. Under the guise of digitalisation and modernisation, central banks and governments are working on the abolition of cash and the establishment of a fully controllable monetary system. But what is really behind this? Is it really about simplifying payment transactions and combating crime, as those in favour would have us believe?

Or is it not rather a desire for total power and control?

"It is the dream of all central bankers and finance ministers: a monetary system in which every transaction can be monitored, every movement tracked and every cent controlled. And that's exactly what the digital euro will make possible." - Ernst Wolff, financial analyst

Cash is a thing of the past - goodbye freedom and privacy

With the introduction of the digital euro, we are not only saying goodbye to cash, but also to financial freedom and privacy. In future, every transaction will be digitally recorded, monitored and controlled. Central banks and governments will gain total power over our money. They can decide at any time what we are allowed to spend our money on - and what not. And they can block accounts and expropriate assets at will. The digital euro makes it possible.

Expropriation as a permanent state

Parallel to the digital euro, an unprecedented wave of expropriation is rolling towards us. Under pretexts such as climate protection, pandemic control or war, new laws and regulations are constantly being passed to take even more money out of our pockets. Whether property taxes, compulsory levies, "special sacrifices" or negative interest rates - there are no limits to the creativity of politicians when it comes to fleecing the public. And the digital euro is the perfect instrument for implementing these measures directly and immediately.

Historical examples of expropriation

Expropriation by the state is nothing new:

- In the hyperinflation of the 1920s, citizens' savings were effectively expropriated through currency devaluation.

- After the Second World War, the equalisation of burdens was introduced to finance the costs of the war. The wealthy had to hand over 50 per cent of their assets to the state in instalments over 30 years.

- In Cyprus, all bank deposits were summarily subject to a special tax in 2013 in the wake of the financial crisis.

But what used to be the exception is becoming the norm with the digital euro. Total control over our money gives governments direct access to our assets - whenever they deem it necessary.

The transparent citizen is a reality

In countries such as China, total surveillance and control through digital central bank money has long been a reality. There, the government decides who is allowed to spend how much of their own money on what. And anyone who does not comply with the system is punished mercilessly. In the social credit system, all citizens' activities are monitored and assessed. Anyone who collects too many demerit points not only loses face, but also their financial freedom. Accounts are blocked, loans are refused and travelling is prohibited.

What can you do?

The best way to prepare for what is to come is to be informed, flexible and mobile. If you don't need the "system", you have clear advantages. I have often spoken of the "escape rucksack" if necessary.

Learn to deal with alternative currencies. With Plus+, we are focussing on alternative currencies, with Bitcoin at the forefront. We are continuing to upgrade and are in a position to integrate the privacy coin "Monero", for example, at any time. Build up an untouchable income with PlusX2. 

And: It is an advantage to maintain self-control and avoid confrontation with unpleasant energies. "Avoid the opportunity!" We cannot stop the demolition process. It is a light event that brings to light everything that is bad and wrong.
