Weaponize the Tor Network:

weaponizing-the-web1-720x2808

Weaponize the Web

prism-01

if you got nothing to hide – you got nothing to worry about

 gAtO wAs - asked the Tor-Network is slow as heck, does not support sending outgoing email and does not support UDP packets of the TCP/IP protocol, so can it be weaponized? Maybe monitoring the Tor-Network like Prism and Nucleon or the Japan based Daedalus Monitoring program at the very least?

Data collection in Tor:

I guess this all depends on your definition of what a weaponize cyber weapon is-///-IP theft- here we have a vast collection of both /IP-(intellectual Property) and /copyright – /hacking /sql-i in Tor// -.- /hacktivism -how about /personal privacy online-collection of all internet transaction and data sharing with Google, Facebook, Microsoft and others— /government censorship of it’s people /Worldwide Internet monitoring-///  Like a room 641a for Tor only traffic.

prism-03

Daedalus Monitoring program

Mix a little more counter-offensive cyber class weapons like Stuxnet, Flame and DuKu – add a bit of misinformation and propaganda to the mix and we have a better question.

Next we have a more military type cyber weaponized solution. Control Drones planes in Tor -another one is dDos, attacks on the electric grid or sabotage satellites. Cyber attacks like power outage, hacking attacks on cell phones and wall street computers and add traffic lights and traffic in the northeast going wacko. Like they say trains, planes and automobiles are all connected to cyberspace from China to Canada… prism-02

Tor can also be used in all the above scenario- Yes big brother/sister it can. So the answer is Yes, but Tor is not the pony network that can do this work. There are other kinds of anonymized networks that can be used, and with your own relays all over the world you can create your own Tor-private network that only you use so it will be faster and side nobody can see it – well Tor is not the only network one to watch for cyber weaponized products - gAtO oUt

Government use of Cyber Weaponized Exploits

gAtO rEaD- The government is buying hackers exploits – not to stop these sophisticated cyber exploits but to use these tools against it’s own people- they are using the tools to infiltrate computer networks worldwide, leaving behind spy programs and cyber-weapons that can disrupt data or damage systems.network

The core problem: Spy tools and cyber-weapons rely on vulnerabilities in existing software programs, and these hacks would be much less useful to the government if the flaws were exposed through public warnings. So the more the government spends on offensive techniques, the greater its interest in making sure that security holes in widely used software remain unrepaired. So your computer is vulnerable and the governments knows it and will not disclose this information, but use it against you to place cookies,RAT’s or other spyware into your computer -maybe- I trust our government don’t you?

If you got nothing to hide, you should not be worried… right????

So our Tax dollars are going to Hackers and cyber criminals that sell these exploits all over the world. As a tax payer I don’t like this part at all. But the worst part is by us taking the lead of cyber offensive cyber tools -example.. Stuxnet – it is a plan book for other countries to do the same. So what we do in cyberspace has become socially acceptable to do in cyberspace and then we bitch about China. I don’t get it – mEoW

Officials have never publicly acknowledged engaging in offensive cyber-warfare, though the one case that has beenmost widely reported – the use of a virus known as Stuxnet to disrupt Iran’s nuclear-research program – was lauded in Washington. Officials confirmed to Reuters previously that the U.S. government drove Stuxnet’s development, and the Pentagon is expanding its offensive capability through the nascent Cyber Command.

Then you have the Prism disclosure and PoW- US Cyber Agents Disrupt Publication of Popular Al Qaeda Magazine – This means that Obama’s cyber military is potentially capable of more targeted attacks, specified at damaging particular pieces of information or infrastructure. I wonder where they got those vulnerabilities? maybe some bad guys—/Nato_cyber_plat

What worries me is as the U.S engages in these attacks our enemies are learning what is acceptable in cyberwar. So we must be careful not to lose the fact that everyone is watching what we do and how we treat cyberspace and others governments will follow, defensive and offensive, they are learning from the best the U.S. Government -gAtO oUt

Tor is NOT the ONLY Anonymous Network

gAtO fOuNd – this very interesting and wanted to share -

Tor does some things good, but other anonymous networks do other things better. Only when used together do they work best. And of course you want to already know how to use them should something happen to Tor and you are forced to move to another network.fin_07

Try them! You may even find something interesting you cannot find on Tor!

Anonymous networks

These are well known and widely deployed anonymous networks that offer strong anonymity and high security. They are all open source, in active development, have been online for many years and resisted attack attempts. They run on multiple operating systems and are safe to use with default settings. All are well regarded.

  • Tor – Fast anonymous internet access, hidden websites, most well known.
  • I2P – Hidden websites, anonymous bittorrent, mail, out-proxy to internet, other services.
  • Freenet – Static website hosting, distributed file storage for large files, decentralized forums.

Less well known

Also anonymous networks, but less used and possibly more limited in functionality.

  • GnuNet – Anonymous distributed file storage.
  • OneSwarm – Bittorrent, has a non-anonymous mode, requires friends for anonymity.
  • RetroShare – File-sharing, chat, forums, mail. Requires friends, and not anonymous to those friends, only the rest of the network.
  • Omemo – Distributed social storage platform. Uncertain to what extent it is anonymous.

Non-free networks

These are anonymous networks, but are not open source. Therefore their security and anonymity properties is hard to impossible to verify, and though the applications are legit, they may have serious weaknesses. Do not rely on them for strong anonymity.

  • Osiris – Serverless portal system, does not claim to provide any real anonymity.

In development

  • Phantom – Hidden Services, native IPv6 transport.
  • GlobaLeaks – Open Source Whistleblowing Framework.
  • FreedomBox – Project to create personal servers for distributed social networking, email and audio/video communications.
  • Telex – A new way to circumvent Internet censorship.
  • Project Byzantium – Bootable live distribution of Linux to set up wireless mesh nodes with commonly available hardware.
  • Hyperboria A distributed meshnet built on cjdns.

Routing Platforms

These are internets overlaid on the internet. They provide security via encryption, but only provides weak to none anonymity on their own. Only standard tools such as OpenVPN and Quagga are required to connect. Responsibility for a sufficiently anonymous setup is placed on the user and their advertised routes. More suited for private groups as things out in the open can be firewalled by other participants. Can be layered above or below other anonymity nets for more security and fun.

  • Anonet – AnoNet2, a more open replacement for AnoNet1.
  • dn42 – Another highly technical routing community.
  • CJDNS, an IPV6 overlay network that provides end to end encryption. It is not anonymous by itself.

Alternative Internet

  • Netsukuku – A project that aims to build a global P2P online network completely independent from the Internet by using Wi-Fi. The software is still in active development, although the site is no longer updated. A new site is in progress of being built.
  • Many other wireless communities building mesh networks as an alternative to the Internet, e.g. Freifunk, http://guifi.net and many more around the globe. see also

Alternative domain name systems

  • Namecoin – Cryptocurrency with the added ability to support a decentralised domain name system currently as a .bit.
  • OpenNIC – A user controlled Network Information Center offering a democratic, non-national, alternative to the traditional Top-Level Domain registries.
  • Dot-P2P – Another decentralized DNS service without centralized registry operators (at July 18, 2012 page is not accessible and has not known anything about the status of project from February 2011).

Finding the Bad Guy’s in Tor -triangulated irregular network

gAtO ThInKiNg - a car GPS works very simple, It takes the delay time from one geo-positioned satellite and compares is to another geo-positional satellite and estimates the position of the GPS in my CAR – I think they call it satellite triangulation or something cool, it’s been done with radios to guide pilots navigate ever since they developed radios. We do it with satellite and we can use networks too.

triangulated irregular network  -So now apply this to the Tor bad guy’s websites- a hidden service!math_clouadTag

With a simple command you can get the time it takes to crawl a website, so you have one server in the U.S one is South America, one in Europe and one in Asia and we run the same command getting the delays from each location. I bet with a little math and some basic network tools we could figure out the geo-location of any given website in Tor. One of my good mentors told me that in my crawls I was capturing timing information, we all see timing information with a simple ping command in the clear web but in Tor – UDP is unsupported so it does not work -//- we must take into account the Tor network thru-put and utilization bit that’s easy to get from a number of Tor tools.

Reverse triangulation of a network server should be easy to find with a little math, just take a good sample and the longer you wait the more data you collect and the better the chance you can find a geo-location of a website. We do this in the clear web all the time we can see bad areas of the world that are bad spammers, and other like mail from Africa Prince Scams offering you millions if you send them some money to cover the transfer, or Russian and Chinese phishing attacks. So we know geo-location and some IP are more prime to bad actors and we can draw a profile, a geo-location of a place and/or  country or an ISP so not having the IP of a Tor server may not be neededto find them we could use network triangulation. “triangulated irregular network  ” So the same thing can be done with networks and timing delays of data back and forth from a // client <–> Tor OR <–>server.

I got a crazy Idea that may or may-not work, but it sounds good—//  so— Now if I can only find a government grant and a good math major to help out and we have a big business model to find the bad guy’s geo-location even in Tor - gAtO oUt…

Tor Website 36% are Criminals Sites

gAtO iS CrAwLliNg websites-We just completed our new crawl of Tor URL that we found. We started with 2,000 URL’s and we got about 550 positives from this first run. This will change since some sites go up and down for no rhyme or reason. I went back to verify one site that my crawl picked up with all kinds of good information but later when I went back it would not come up. So this is an ongoing thing in order to map out all of Tor’s hidden service websites. From the preliminary data Pedo sites are about 18% of the sites we discovered another 4-6% guns and assassins and another 14-16% of different criminal type’s of sites or scams. So that is over 36% of the sites we found were criminal type, that is not good for anyone.

Crawling Tor Hidden Service - websites

Crawling Tor Hidden Service – websites

Tor is an excellent software for being private and having some level of safety but this new light is not good for the people that want to use Tor and the Dark Web to do good things and positive things. Now we see that the bad guys are all over Tor-Dark Web we hope this list will help it become better.

This list is only available to Law enforcement, governments and selected security companies, you must be verified first before you can get a hold of this list of Onion websites in Tor. This is not a free list (we have to recover our cost of r&d) and this is only the first steps we have gained over 12,000 new URL in Tor from this crawl and will be doing more crawls and adding more information to the list.

What really freaked us out was the undocumented website that are not in any hidden wiki in Tor and the number of them being put out by criminals. Now some of the other information that we collected see list below will give us a baseline like — Last-Modified: — will give us an indication of how active they are. The —Server: & Web Application:— will give us the web app they use and from the looks of things some are vulnerable to all kinds of hacking attacks. Tor websites are the same as any site and if you don’t update your website, well your vulnerable to hacking from anyone and in Tor you don’t have a clue because they are protected just like the site.

This will be an ongoing crawl for the next year or so, so expect the list to grow and as new data is collected more will be revealed about the how, and the use of Tor and who uses Tor will become not just theories but facts that we can verify - gAtO OuT

Offensive Cyber Capabilities

Companies Need Offensive Cyber Capabilities

gAtO hEaR - about banks seek U.S Help on Iran Cyberattack’s. We hear about cyber attacks in the financial sector, the oil and energy sectors, then Leon Panetta warned perpetrators to cease hacking the US while we have all kinds of sanctions against Iran -/ this is insanity. Your telling unknown hackers (we suspected Iran) to  just stop, or what. What can we do to prevent them from launching cyber attacks against America.

So Iran has only 3 NAT-access points and 1 submarine cable (Al-Faw, Iraq submarine cable)

 

Then you have all these security people putting up defenses without building a firewall so bad-ass that they cannot do business. If we keep building these defenses it will get to a point where it defeats the purpose of the Internet. So what is the logical next move, offensive cyber weapons and capabilities. We can find these attacks and pinpoint the IP of where they are coming from then all we need is offensive tools to find them and do a seal-team 6 extraction of something like that and get the word out that we will find you and hunt you down.

One little hacker can keep a bank tied up for days in the middle of the desert. They could go after our traffic system, our rail system we know that SCADA is so messed up and in some cases open with defaults passwords. So we beat our chest like some mad gorilla and hope to scare these hackers.

My friends we must take initiative and find ways to counter these attacks no more just defense and I don’t mean a Ddos attack that can be circumvented. We need to plant Bot-nets on these people’s machines and monitor them and if we have to go physical and bring them to justice. Forget about Iran and let’s just talk about Chinese hacker attacks of our intellectual property. They just denied it and go about planning the next attack. We seen Skynet were thousands of computers were given a disk wipe and the blue screen of death. Why don’t we do the same to these hackers going after our infrastructure.

We must change our tactics and be a little more aggressive and become real cyber warriors not just defenders but attacking them and destroying their machines, their servers and routers. How about we just monitor the 1 submarine cable and 3 access points in Iran that should lead us to some of these people. The US monitors our own people then we stand by and allow other hostile countries to go and hack us. This is cyber insanity - gAtO OuT

Is the TorProject protecting Pedos?

Update: 01-26-2013 – It seems that the TorProject.org is now threatening poor little gAtO because I voiced my opinions and disagree and question their practice of protecting pedophiles. So the TorProject that say’s they support “Freedom of Speech” now is trying to used it POWER to abuse people who disagree with them. This shows to me that I am very closed to the truth. Why would they be offended and why would they threaten a disable veteran that is only trying to help children by questioning it’s practice of supporting pedophiles in TOR.

This ABUSE of power upon the weak is what the TOR-Project claims it is trying to protect. This is the same tactics that corporations, governments that feel entitled think they can silence “Freedom of Speech” – Well Mr. Andrew Lewman of TorProject anytime, anyplace little boy. You are a coward to hide behind the Tor-Project and think you can get away with your abuse, your threats, your intimidation. gAtO is Ready- Fire at will.- hit me with your best shot.

  • I DO NOT FORGIVE
  • I DO NOT FORGET
  • YOU SHOULD OF EXPECTED gAtO

gAtO hAs his ClAw’s oUt psssss- I have been working on a project to fight pedo website in the Tor-onion network – (The Dark Web- the underweb) what ever you want to call it. We all know that Pedophiles as well as other criminals are hiding their websites inside -Tor-hidden service. So I contacted one of the torproject people – we will call him Andrew.

When I told them that I was working on getting rid of Pedo websites in Tor and I asked “why they just don’t delete these URL from the directory”, he told me:cyber_speech

“It’s so toxic, most law enforcement cannot touch it either. You should report these links to

http://missingkids.com/“>http://missingkids.com at a minimum. See

https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq-abuse.html.en#RemoveContent for the longer explanation.”

\—The Missing Kids network cannot do anything about websites in the Tor-network –hidden service.—/

This made me sick from the TorProject site -We refuse to weaken Tor because it would harm efforts to combat child abuse and human trafficking in the physical world, while removing safe spaces for victims online. – SAY WHAT!!! – Here we are we know the URL of PedoBear and hundreds of Pedo site in the Dark Web and they keep the real directory of all sites in the 10 Authority servers – they could just go and delete these known Pedo websites and then they would have to generate another URL and re-advertise and get back the customer base.

“Hay Anonymous we need your help”

You ever wonder why everyone vilifies the dark web (Tor) this is the reason why, get a clue TorProject.

That is a lot of work for these monsters – We in the cyber security field know all this and if we can get together and help we could help these children and protect them from these cowards. No, No the Torproject is so arrogant and delusional that they make these statements on their website and – well that’s all I have to do. - gAtO don’t get it.

I respect the efforts of the TorProject and what they do to help “freedom of Speech in cyberspace” this is my core belief, but to claim to help child abuse by leaving these sick website online. – That is madness – I cannot believe that Roger and Jacob worked as hard as they did to build such a great tools that is saving lives but when it comes to children they turn a blind eye.

I hope they see this post and think of the millions of children that suffer because they choose to do nothing. I hope they sleep well at nights knowing that pedophiles are loving their Tor-hidden service where they can do whatever they want with children and get away with it.

Shame on you TorProject – all I can say is that gAtO will work hard to find and destroy these websites.

 - we have rules and pedophiles have no rules -not on my watch

I know behind the Tor-hidden service is just a basic website with the normal vulnerabilities and from my research some of these use old web apps that are vulnerable. So be warned gAtO  is a gray hat and I’m hunting you. I will find you and exposed you, I will expose your family,  I will shame you, I will send you to jail in what ever country your in, were I hope they treat you like you treated these helpless children.

TorProject I expected more from you, I expected you to have a heart and help these helpless children- gAtO oUT

Government Spying on everyone -Thanks Microsoft

gAtO lEaRnOn 01-01-213 we hear that Microsoft buys Skype and makes changes to allow Police surveillance. Then on 01-07-2013 we hear that a professor at the Warsaw University of Technology, Wojciech Mazurczyk, found a way to insert secret 70 bits of data and add secret information similar to steganography.spy-spy

Lawful Intercept is what it’s called and we just heard punch – counter-punch from the government. I just posted about corporations and governments using offensive cyber weapons to fight crime, but this looks like just plain old spying on citizens like China, Iraq and Syria does. Skype is owned by Microsoft and we know that Word and other products have back doors for them to snoop and governments to use in criminal cases. I guess they do it the proper way and get a real FISA document to monitor us it’s citizens.

mEoW 12-30-2012 our re-elected President Obama signs FISA Warrantless Wiretapping Program. STOP – SAY WHAT. mEoW – Forget about gun control how about the privacy of citizens, are we becoming like China, Iraq and Syria the more I find out about this the crazier it becomes. I hate Skypes but now finding this out NO WAY DUDE-

I did a little digging and I found a document from the Straford hack from the LutzBoat crew and this has been on the play board for a long time. More and more governments that play nice with the America and Microsoft will have to live with the fact that they are spying on us, the people. I voted for Obama but I’m pretty sure any president would want to be able to justify this abuse of power to monitor it’s citizens, what get’s me is we scream and yell when other countries do it but here we are doing to ourselves and nobody is talking about this- Hay press wake up. I have nothing to hide but if you do you have been warned – enjoy your government spying on you behind your back - gAtO oUt

Lab Notes:

IT security continues to be the greatest challenge facing government CIOs worldwide. Most experts agree that governments require stronger partnerships between the public and private sectors for both better protection of government IT systems from intruders and for greater visibility into operators’ network traffic to fight crime. However, government systems and intelligence activities constitute a very sensitive information environment. Governments must proceed with caution when forming technology partnerships for hardening their IT network security. Melissa E. Hathaway, who in February 2009 was named to be the Obama Administration’s top cyber security official, points out how

Lawful Intercept

Challenge

Criminals, predators and hackers now use chats, blogs, webmail and Internet applications such as online gaming and file-sharing sites to hide their communications.

Solution

Qosmos provides law enforcement agencies with a powerful solution to identify a target using multiple virtual IDs and intercept all related IP- based communications. Any trigger, such as a “user login = target” initiates intercept of all IP traffic related to the “target.”

Example of recognized applications and protocols

VoIP Email (POP, SMTP)

Webmail (Gmail, Hotmail, Live Mail, SquirrelMail, Yahoo mail, etc.)

Instant Messaging (Aim, SNM, Skype, Yahoo, Google Talk, QQ, Maktoob, Paltalk, etc.)

Online games (World of Warcraft)

Online classified ads

Audio/Video (H.323, SIP, MGCP, RTP, RTCP, MMSE, RTSP, SHOUTcast, Yahoo Video,

MSN Video, SCCP, etc.)

Web applications (Dailymotion, Google, eBay, Google Earth, HTTP, MySpace, Wikipedia,

YouTube, etc.)

Example of information extracted

Caller, phone number, called party, duration of call

Webmail login, email address, sender, receiver, subject matter, attached documents

Instant messaging sender, receiver, contact lists and status

Forum login, IP address, MAC address, mobile ID (IMSI, IMEI)

Protocols identified even for unidirectional traffic (e.g. email by satellite).

PEDO’s gAtO is Hunting YOU!

gAtO hAs - been meeting some very good people that have the ugly dirty job of going after pedophiles and gATO is sicken that this problem is becoming so big. I like most people hear of these sick wackos and my skin crawls but I am guilty of not doing anything to stop this. In my research into the Tor’s Dark Web I found so much ugly Pedo stuff but I always said to myself this is some else job but it’s not.

All cyber security professionals should work together to find and go after these sick bastards that haunt our children nightmare. When I first saw the “Pedo Bear Wiki” in Tor’s I was in shock at how they do business in plain site thinking that they are safe. This is also a big black eye for everyone because this does not just happen in Tor’s Dark Web but in the clear web were we all do work, and talk to friends. Facebook, Twitter is full of them, you may of added them as friends. In the normal Internet these people thrive and then they go into Tor and people start saying Oh well in Tor it’s all about these perverts. They give Tor a bad name because it works so well to mask you.

Be on Notice pedo’s that gATO has found ways to find you in the Tor-onion network. I can find the IP of your hidden-service website, I can also find your clients if your not careful. I am launching some Tor tools that I am developing that may allow me to find your IP and then your -geo location. I am working on some other offensive cyber tools to go after these Pedo Sites in the clear web and especially in Tor. So the hunt begins pedophiles you have been warned this coming year we will find you and destroy you then give the police a chance to lock you up for life. Yeah your safe in Tor, keep thinking that – gATO hunts for RaTz like yOu.

Happy Birthday Bitcoin -Book Release Jan 9

Happy Birthday Bitcoin – Available NOW-eBook -http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AYA4SVS

bitcoin_cover_cut_02

Jan 9 new Book release -Digital Virtual Currency and Bitcoins -The Dark Web Financial Markets – Exchanges & Secrets

On this day Bitcoin turns 4 years old. As any 4 year old will tell you this has been a wild ride. From a little know digital currency to today’s acceptance into the legal banks and marketplace this little currency that could has shocked world leaders, stunned banking officials all over the world trading and is today in the $13.5-USD range.

Pierluigi and I (gAtO) first came across this when we were covering Wikileak problems and writing our first book – The Deep Dark Web – the cyber underweb we’re finding this new currency and using it because it was working and had no government ties. Bitcoin has been vilified by most governments but the US -UK and it’s ties to currency transaction systems like Visa, Mastercard, PayPal and others (IMF and SEPA, SWIFT to name a few)  became the shot heard around the cyber world.

On the one hand you have Anonymous and other hacktivist using it to show how it cannot be controlled and the other side is the European Central Bank (ECB) published a report in Nov-2012 about finding a solution to Bitcoins place in (FRB) Fractional Reserve Banking, the cornerstone piece of all banks to create money out of thin air.

Thomas Jefferson said: “I sincerely believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restores to the people to whom it properly belongs”

Digital virtual communities have exploded in recent years – this phenomenon is enabled by social media and the changing world we live in. In some cases some communities have created their own currency for exchange of goods and services but it has expanded to outside their own circles to provide a new medium of exchange, creating new digital virtual currencies that are changing the world.  Bitcoin-Central is now the first Bitcoin exchange to become a bank with guarantee funds insured up to EU$100,000.

When the ECB published that report it was the white flag of surrender but also assurance that the bankers can still control some of it’s power. Let’s face it FRB is the biggest scam by bankers – as they explain this system it is done to expand the economy by freeing up capital that can be loaned out to other parties. WoW that sound so nice of them to do this favor for us in reality it set’s up the cornerstone or their financial profits from nothing.

FRB is were someone deposits 100 dollars in a bank they are required by FRB laws to keep 10% in the vault but now they can loan out 90% of that deposit because they got the governments (us the tax payers) to insure that $100 deposit in case they make bad loans or to make sure they get their bonus checks. So if you came back to the bank to get your money out and they squandered your money on bad loans or just shoddy business practice -oh well no problems – the government will pay you back with our own tax dollars. In other words they take my tax dollars and pay me back with it and then they increase my taxes so that the bankers can keep doing the same thing over and over again. No responsibility and to think that bankers are look up to by business and in persons to be highly respected and good citizens- right!

This is the biggest scam in history they have no responsibility, no reason to be wise and make good investments because they have politicians in their pockets. You know those people that we voted for that are supposed to represent us the people, no they represent these scum’s the bankers. The funny thing that they have no control of Bitcoins like fiat currency. They cannot just print more money up; Bitcoins are created in a way that revolves around MATH – Yeah most people hate math but this time it works so good that these bankers have tried everything in their power to control Bitcoin and other digital currencies and they cannot; they failed.

I will be the one to first tell you that Bitcoins as they are today will NOT be the answer only 21 million total Bitcoins will ever be created and the world needs a bigger unit to scale this for a worldwide monetary solution. Other digital currencies will still be created because of the Bitcoin experiment; and as the world becomes more digitalized we will see that government or corporate control currency solutions will not be trusted by the world community.

Look at Canada’s attempt at Digital currency MintChip at first it was hailed as a winner the first digital currency backed by a world leader like Canada. But somehow after much fanfare and lots of money spent they awarded the team with a the best solution and hid it from everyone – it went to the back room in the filing cabinet never to be heard again. In the 2 or so years that the Canadian took to develop this system it was convinced (by the global bankers) that this would not work. Canafa caved in to the pressure and MintChip is dead – DOA

Maybe the bankers told them to shelf it, it would setup the premise that other governments could do the same and if they can bypass the current system like SEPA or SWIFT or IMF or the World Bank you see they control the financial system and if they don’t like you or you pissed them off they will not allow your country to function in it. Control of the financial network is how the “evil global bankers” control the toy box.
