Excerpt: Introduction to Crucible Of Tokens

This is a book about the deed to the house you are sitting in. It is about the paycheck that lands on Friday and where it lands. It is about the account with your name on it and whose name is actually on the shares inside. It is about the retirement you have been saving for and who decides what it will consist of when you get there. It is about the inheritance you mean to leave your children, and whether what you leave them will be a thing they own or a ticket they must keep renewing. Take cover, now!


Trump Christens AI As “Super AI” In The Presence Of Arch-Technocrats

Never in my career have I seen any President showcase the leadership of a single industry over and over, in this case, Artificial Intelligence. Trump has emerged as Technocrat-in-Chief, promoting the Arch-Technocrats’ agenda to spread AI throughout society, including in government and to blanket the nation with humongous data centers. None of this adds up today, but in due time we will see the end of the matter. In short, they are racing for the finish line to capture all humanity.


Elon Musk Predicts AI Will Beat All Fields by 2028

Musk might be right. My AI Capability Multiplier currently stands at 65.5: it will exceed 120 by year-end 2026, 3,100 by the end of 2027, and 45,000 by the end of 2028. This started at 1 on January 1, 2025, just before Trump was inaugurated. AI development is going parabolic even as we speak, sending the world into a state of Future Shock, as Alvin & Heidi Toffler predicted in 1970.


NET Zero, AI And Technocracy: What Happens To Freedom In A Surveillance Society?

Ordinary Canadian citizens hate their government, and with good reason; the iron teeth of Technocracy are devouring their nation. Oh Canada: “We have our hands full, with either sovereignty, freedom and prosperity or the status to yield, submit and conform into slavery, debt, disease and things worse than death.” For you, it started with Elon Musk’s grandfather, Joshua Haldeman, who was the Grand Poobah of Technocracy during the 30s and 40s in Canada.


The Era of More Junk in Orbit (Thanks, Elon)

Arch-Technocrat Elon Musk wants to go to Mars with 1 million people to establish a Technocracy in space. Everything that he has done with SpaceX enshrines that goal. Along the way, he has littered outer space with his junk. Imagine the trail of trash from Earth to Mars, and then the trash heaps on Mars itself. Didn’t his mother ever tell him to clean up his messes?


Oracle Invokes Force Majeure on Project Jupiter AI Data Center

This may be the pinprick that pops the AI data center boom. Oracle buried itself in a massive AI data center boondoggle that went south because they couldn’t get the energy permits needed to run it. Then the financing disappeared. Oracle is using “force majeure” as an excuse to avoid losses and liability. If a court doesn’t strike this down, the entire industry will follow Oracle. This is the proverbial crack in the dam.


From Climate Doom To AI Apocalypse: Same Fear Playbook

Technocrats drove climate doom, then the COVID doom, and now the AI doom machine: in each case, we are all gonna die. In each case, the object was to move humanity toward Technocracy. This has nothing to do with being "left" or "right". Technocrats are low-ball destroyers of political systems and will stoop to any level to get their way.

Early Reader Weighs In On Crucible of Tokens

Crucible of Tokens is the capstone of my trilogy, started 10 months ago with The Final Betrayal with Courtenay Turner. Then came The New Economics of Technocracy, which explained the mechanics of "You will own nothing." Now comes the "gloves off" accusation that tokenization, driven by AI, is going to strip the world bare of real property, in terms of deeds, titles, and ownership in general. Keep your hand on your wallet. Take courage and take cover,  because it's coming for you.

Chairman Xi Comes To Washington

Last Sunday morning, the Treasury Secretary Bessent and the Vice Premier of China sat down to negotiate the commercial future of the two largest economies on earth. They did not meet at the Treasury or at a consulate, but rather at the Manhattan headquarters of JPMorgan Chase. This seems a little fishy to me.

Stripe Is Building the Toll Road for the Machine Economy

Stripe has assembled, under one private roof, a wallet bound to identity, a reputation score that precedes the purchase, a meter on machine intelligence, a stablecoin, and a blockchain to settle it. Each piece has a reasonable business justification. Together they amount to the ledger, the meter, and the gate for machine commerce. Technocracy was defined in 1938 as the science of social engineering, with the measurement and accounting of all production and consumption at its core. The original Technocrats had no instrument that could do it. Stripe's stack, built for ordinary commercial reasons, can.
