There has been a lot of talk about a new financial system coming, whether it is gold backed, blockchain, or QFS. I don't know what the new system will look like but I believe I know what will provoke it: negative interest rates. We are many months away from this happening, but when it does, it will cause great turmoil because people will want to withdraw their money and the banks won't let them. Negative interest rates will eat away at peoples' savings at an increasingly faster pace the more negative the rates become.
You do not own the money in your bank account(s). The bank owns it. You are simply a creditor. Read the bank's "Deposit Account Terms and Conditions" and you will see this is true. This also gives the bank the power to take money directly from your account and give you shares in the bank in return, if the bank is insolvent or at risk of bankruptcy. This is a "bail-in".
A commercial real estate crisis is looming that the media is not talking about. This will cause many bank insolvencies.
Back to negative interest rates. From 1976 until now, there have been 6 significant interest rate cycles, where they rise to a high and then fall to a low point. Each high was lower than the previous high and each low was lower than the previous low, by about 2-3% each cycle. The previous low in the United States was 0.25%. I predict the next low will be about minus 2.5% (-2.5%).
It is currently at 4.75% and I think we are still a year away from negative interest rates.
The last interest rate cycle was the 2008 housing crash. This time it will be worse.
