The 2008-2009 sub-prime financial crisis has exacerbated all the limits of the debt based economical and monetary system, in place since the begining of the 20th Century. We had the opportunity to experience the stealth erosion in the value of our labor, savings and investments over a generation.

We have all witnessed the biblical scale central monetary creation and public endebtment continuing over the past decade, established as policy to bailout the speculative losses and sustain corporate profitability. All based on a utopic dogma of downway funneling to the labor class and therefore triggering an economic recovery, but rather resulting in substantial assets inflation, upwards transfer of wealth along with further pauperisation of the economic and social benefits. While such bandaids can be useful on the short term to back-up for unlikely financial distressing events, the side effects of their longer term application, in addition to the fiscal and regulatory accessibility constraints, intensify the captial coercion and ultimately leads to more financial disparity.

The FIAT currencies root their intrinsic value mainly from the perpetual debt system, as demand is systemicly sustained by borrowing and debt servicing whether on personal, corporate or public levels. FIAT currencies are by nature built to erode their proper value over a timeline for the sake of economic value creation and debt interest payment. In addition, the systemic default risk exposure requires regular mitigation measures throughout liquidity easing interventions in many forms such as rate cuts or public purchase of debt securities, increasing the FIAT currencies loss of value.

The contemporary impacts are notable, but the devastating consequences on our descendants cannot be estimated.

The Blockchain technology along with Bitcoin and some other crypto-currencies, in service since fall of 2008, have been representing at the same time a premonition of the forthcoming financial crisis consequences and a working solution to avoid its transformation into a monetary and debt crisis. However, the complexity and difficulty of the user interface, in addition to the regulatory and compliance embargo on their access have frozen the path to mass adoption, multiplied the centralized crypto-options trading platforms and incited creative scams. The recent echos on central banking adoption of the Blockchain technology and other procrastination on the creation of crypto-currency are only meant to beautify the implementation of physical currency limitation policies in order to enhance the monetary fractional potential on a path forward to maintain the status-quo, probably under some new exotic nomenclature. 

The current economic outlook in combination with the banking system risk exposure, central monetary interventions, skyrocketing assets prices, restrictions on physical cash and punctions on saving, the average human investor or saver is left with very limited choice for constitution of capital and its preservation.  Gold / Silver Bullion and Coinage, despite being subject to price manipulation and often ecospoken as barbaric relics, are the historic safe heaven for value and financial hedge, whereas characterized by their low exchange velocity and quantity control issues. 

Passion for mechanical and Blockchain technologies along with profound interest in finance guided our imagination to create a new field of value mangement applications, that associate precision machining and cryptocurrencies custody techniques to open the frontiers between physical and digital asset classes, namely MechaFin Artefacts or CryptoMecha Relics standing for novel encapsulated sealed bearer asset units.

Techology is in service, movement is on!
