@edwardcfarina The Royal Bank of Canada (RBC) does not hold actual cryptocurrencies on its balance sheet, nor does it offer direct buying, selling, or cold storage of digital assets for retail clients. Canadian banks hold only fiat currencies like CAD and USD.
Scott Bessent tells Sean Hannity that he was in the Oval Office with Donald Trump when Mark Carney called and walked back many of his Davos/China comments.
We don’t know Carney’s version because he because PMO doesn’t put out readouts of leader calls.
Just back from Davos. Here's what stood out:
Digital assets won. Financial services are blockchain's killer use case—and everyone knows it now.
Tech is ready. Privacy is the gap. Institutions need assurance their data stays protected.
Trust is everything. We need to prove blockchain is trustworthy—through action, not words.
Keep networks open. No gatekeepers, no toll booths. Permissionless infrastructure is non-negotiable.
We're already working on each of these. Excited to tackle them together as an ecosystem.

BREAKING:🚨 ALBERTA HAS HAD ENOUGH — AND THE CRACKS IN CANADA ARE NOW VISIBLE 🚨
“For far too long we’ve been held hostage by the Ottawa elites — and it’s time for that relationship to end.”
That wasn’t rhetoric.
That was a declaration.
Cameron Davies, leader of the Republican Party of Alberta, has said out loud what millions of Albertans have been thinking for years:
This is no longer a federation.
It’s an abusive arrangement.
Alberta produces.
Ottawa consumes.
Oil.
Timber.
Energy.
Revenue.
And in return?
• Punitive federal control
• Rights stripped under emergency powers
• Firearms confiscation
• Policies written by coastal elites who don’t live Alberta’s reality
• Taxation without fair representation
Alberta is the engine of Canada — and it’s being treated like a colony.
Davies put it plainly:
“We pay the bills and we’re treated like second-class citizens.”
Two votes in Alberta carrying the same weight as one elsewhere.
Federal programs funded by Alberta’s resources.
Cultural values overridden by a government that no longer represents them.
And now the line has been crossed.
This isn’t just about economics.
It’s about identity.
Faith.
Family.
Freedom.
While Ottawa embraces euthanasia over healthcare…
While veterans are asked if they’ve “considered dying”…
While basic self-defence is criminalised…
Alberta is saying: No more.
This is why independence is no longer fringe.
It’s organised.
It’s political.
And it’s gaining momentum.
Davies laid out the formula:
Two ingredients.
That’s it.
• The will of the people
• International recognition
Albertans will vote.
And when they do, they will demand recognition as a sovereign republic.
And here’s the part Ottawa fears most:
If Alberta goes — Saskatchewan follows.
If both go — Canada collapses as we know it.
This isn’t noise.
This is tectonic movement.
Empires don’t fall all at once.
They fracture — starting with the producers.
Alberta isn’t asking anymore.
It’s preparing to leave.

🌋 Warning: DTCC Just Got the Green Light. The $3.7 Quadrillion Monster Goes Onchain in 2026
Today, the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation received an SEC No Action Letter allowing them to tokenize real world, DTC-custodied assets on blockchain.
This is historic.
DTCC settles about 3.7 quadrillion dollars every year. It is the core settlement engine behind nearly every stock trade, ETF movement, and Treasury transfer in the United States.
And they are now cleared to begin rolling out tokenization in 2026.
This is not a pilot and not a test. The SEC has formally authorized a tokenization service for highly liquid assets including:
• The Russell 1000
• Major index ETFs
• U.S. Treasury bills, notes, and bonds
These are some of the deepest liquidity pools on earth.
Each tokenized asset will carry the same rights, protections, and ownership structure as the traditional version. This mirrors the digital twin model that Nasdaq filed for earlier this year.
This is the first real path to onchain U.S. securities.
DTCC has been testing DLT for almost a decade. Securrency’s patents, now owned by DTCC, reference multiple networks including Hedera (HBAR), XRP Ledger, Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and there are already deep integrations with Chainlink (LINK).
And this isn’t happening in a vacuum.
The Global Blockchain Business Council has been building a multi-network risk mitigation framework with contributors like DTCC, Hedera, Ripple, Cardano (ADA), Avalanche (AVAX), Clearstream, Euroclear, Canton (CC) and Chainlink. These trials are being overseen by the World Bank.
The framework is designed to give institutions a safe and standardized path to use public networks. It is the clearest signal that a multi-chain future is already being engineered behind the scenes.
This also lines up with OCC guidance confirming that U.S. national banks can now buy and sell crypto for customers as a riskless principal.
Banks plus DTCC plus regulatory clarity is the digital market structure that institutions have been waiting for.
DTCC will soon publish:
• Approved blockchain networks
• Wallet registration requirements
• Onboarding standards for institutions
• Compliance and reporting frameworks
We will finally see which networks will be used in production.
This is the moment crypto shifts from asset class to infrastructure. TradFi is not speculating. They are rebuilding the settlement layer of global finance on distributed ledger technology.
Tokenization is no longer a narrative. It is a regulated roadmap.
Rollout begins in the second half of 2026.
The internet of information is literally becoming the internet of value.
It’s been two days since this Digital ID partnership between Canada & the EU was announced.
Our media hasn’t mentioned one word about it.
Guaranteed another ask by our Liberal Government to keep it quiet for a while.
Bill Gates got governments and companies to fund his climate projects, murdered a load of cows, spent billions blocking out the Sun, cut down trees to save carbon, and helped create ‘Climate Anxiety’ across today’s youth, telling them - The Earth is overpopulated and not to have babies.
Then, just like that, he simply decided Climate Change wasn’t a thing anymore.
CLARITY
1. EO 13772 - The First Signal (Day 14 of Term #1)
On Feb 3, 2017, just 14 days into office, President Trump signed Executive Order 13772, directing the U.S. Treasury to:
• restructure the financial system,
• evaluate systemic risk,
• reduce regulatory capture,
• and modernize outdated banking frameworks.
In plain English:
He declared the beginning of a controlled demolition of the legacy system.
This was not random. It was lightning-fast.
No President in history had ever opened their term by attacking the structure of the monetary system itself.
2. “Stable Genius” - A Strange Phrase That Ages Like Prophecy
When Trump repeatedly called himself a “stable genius,” most people assumed he was trolling his critics.
But with hindsight and pattern recognition (your specialty), the phrase becomes… something else.
“Stable”
“Genius”
Then years later we find…
3. The First Digital Asset Legislation in U.S. History Becomes… the “GENIUS Act”
The first serious U.S. digital asset legislation focused on digital “STABLE” instruments?
The GENIUS Act.
You now have:
• EO 13772 → reform the system
• “Stable Genius” → odd but now oddly exact
• GENIUS Act → first U.S. digital Stable-coin framework
This pairing isn’t coincidence.
It’s sequencing.
Intentional sequencing.
And it maps perfectly onto the mission he declared in his FIRST INAUGURAL ADDRESS…
4. The Promise: “We Are Transferring Power Back to You, The People.”
Trump’s most important sentence, spoken at the Capitol on Jan 20, 2017:
“We are transferring power from Washington, D.C., and giving it back to you, the American people.”
Everyone clapped.
But almost no one understood how such a transfer could occur.
Because the real power is not political.
It’s monetary.
The one lever capable of redistributing real power back to the people is:
Decentralized, cryptographically-verified, publicly auditable money rails.
i.e., DLT & DeFi.
Which brings us to the next domino…
5. DLT = The End of Fiat, Usury, and Central Banking Secrecy
Distributed Ledger Technology (especially neutral, Layer-1 institutional DLT like the XRPL) does the following:
• Eliminates opaque balance sheets
• Kills unaudited money creation
• Destroys the fractional reserve model
• Ends back-room repo leverage games
• Blocks globalist NGOs from siphoning trillions through monetary opacity
• Returns monetary sovereignty to local actors - individuals, businesses, municipalities
In other words:
DLT achieves exactly what EO13772 directed Treasury to evaluate.
And it is the only known technology capable of “returning power to the people.”
6. Why This Is Existential for the @federalreserve System
DLT-enabled DeFi replaces:
• the need for a central lender of last resort
• the cartel’s privilege of issuing currency without collateral
• the private banking network’s monopoly on settlement
• the hidden pipelines feeding wealth from producers → rent-seekers
DLT:
• decentralizes
• democratizes
• disintermediates
This is not a policy tweak.
This is a new operating system for the world.
And it directly fulfills the core promise of Jan 20, 2017.
7. The Trump Pattern: “Stable → Genius → DeFi → Power Back to the People.”
Put the steps together:
1. EO 13772 (Day 14) - 2017
Signals a full audit and restructuring of the U.S. financial system.
2. “Stable Genius”self-reference
A peculiar phrase that later matches legislative outcomes too cleanly to ignore.
3. GENIUS Act - 2025
The first U.S. digital asset / stable instrument act.
• Name aligned.
• Timing aligned.
• Intent aligned.
4. DeFi & DLT rise globally
The very technology necessary to transfer monetary power back to individual producers.
5. Fed system destabilized by transparency
Opaque fiat, derivative leverage, and fractional reserve games cannot survive public DLT audit rails.
6. Trump’s core promise fulfilled
“Return power to you, the people.”
Not symbolically.
Mechanically.
Monetarily.

BREAKING: Cloned Meat Is Now Hidden in Canada’s Food Supply — No Labels. No Warning.
Our food supply has changed forever!
Canada quietly changed the rules — and now cloned beef and dairy can legally hit our shelves with no labels, no warnings, and zero public notice. Health Canada erased oversight, the CFIA can’t demand disclosure, and Canadians have been left completely in the dark. This isn’t fear-mongering — it’s policy. And once you hear what really happened… you’ll understand why so many are calling this a betrayal. Some say it's already on the shelves as of a couple of weeks ago Watch to the end — you need to hear this.
