Market Wrap-Up - New All-time Highs, Tax Cuts Effective Feb 2018
 NASDAQ at all time highs at 7,261. This is the technology stock exchange and is growing
beyond the NYSE.
 Dow Jones hitting another all time high well above 50 day moving average
 Everything looks good from a technical view
 This is happening because Trump has been single-handedly changing the structure of the
economy despite massive opposition. Much of what has been done has been Executive
Order, getting rid of regulations
 Results of new tax cuts will take effect in February and market rising in anticipation of this.
 Hundreds of billions, perhaps trillions will come back to the US from overseas - up to
$4Trillion is overseas.
 These companies will do some expansion but most of it will go into stock buy-backs and
dividends - this is good news for the value of the stock market.
 Tech and biotech companies will be the main ones doing this - these two areas will take off
the most.

Trump Economy’s Sustained Growth Pace Unlike Anything Seen in 13 Years


 Economists are predicting 3% or better for Q4 2017 - some are saying it is as high as 4%.

1
Atlanta Fed GDP Now Q4 17 - as much as 3.3%

2
New York Fed Q4 GDP - estimated 3.88%

 New York Fed is estimating Q4 growth of 3.88% so we're getting close to 4% which is
unheard of!
 Remember doom and gloom headlines that 2% growth was the maximum growth possible?,
 Trump as a candidate was saying we can get the economy growing at 3-5% a year and they
laughed at him. So for CNBC to admit that Trump is succeeding is huge turnaround.

USA Percent Growth Needed to Break-Even

3
 This chart shows the real growth in GDP we need to eliminate the fiscal deficit (red line).
 We have to be about 4.2 - 4.3% consistently to eliminate the deficit
 Donald Trump could help us break this debt cycle by growing the economy at this rate.

North Korea
 Kim Clement had a prophetic word that the new president would break the power of debt.
 It was linked to the removal of N. Korea's dictator.
 Kim Jong-Un is developing a new super rocket that he wants to launch in October on 70th
birthday of his grandfather.
 Winter Olympics in Seoul will buy him some time - US military excercises on hold until after
that.
 CIA has bases around the world in hidden places around hte world and they may have bases
in North Korea.

Number of Americans Receiving Unemployment Benefits Falls to 44-Year Low


 http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2018/01/11/number-americans-unemployment-
benefits-falls-44-year-low/
 The Department of Labor reported that 1.87 million Americans were receiving benefits at the
end of December. The number marks the lowest level of applicants since 1973.
 The Department of Labor also noted that the largest number of newer filings for benefits
came as a result of a destructive hurricane season that caused massive damage to
businesses in several southern states and Puerto Rico. But the number of new applications
was still amazingly low.
 The ultra-low claims have been among the most encouraging indicators about the economy,
reassuring Fed officials that they are on the right track by slowing raising interest rates and
withdrawing the stimulus programs they put in place during the recession.
 The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics also reported last week that the economy added 148,000
jobs in December and noted that the unemployment rate remains at 4.1 percent.
 More than 100 American companies gave employees bonuses after Trump signed the Tax
Cuts and Jobs Act. Several corporations, such as AT&T, Comcast, and Nationwide, also
increased their 401(k) matching rate, raised their minimum wages, and increased domestic
investment based on their enthusiasm with the Republican tax bill.
 Walmart announced a one-time bonus, higher wages, and other new benefits to its 2.1 million
employees.

Inflation’s Roar: Core Consumer Prices Post Biggest Gain in 11 Months


 https://www.newsmax.com/finance/economy/core-consumer-prices/2018/01/12/id/836771/
 Underlying U.S. consumer prices recorded their largest increase in 11 months in December
on strong gains in the cost of rental accommodation and healthcare, bolstering expectations
that inflation will accelerate this year.
 The strengthening domestic demand was also underscored by other data on Friday showing
retail sales rising at a solid clip in December. The reports probably will keep the Federal
Reserve on course to increase interest rates in March.
 They raised the prospects of a more aggressive monetary policy tightening this year,
especially against the backdrop of a $1.5 trillion package of tax cuts passed by the

4
Republican-controlled U.S. Congress and signed into law by President Donald Trump last
month.
 The U.S. central bank is forecasting three rate increases this year. It raised borrowing
costs three times in 2017.
 The economy is doing quite well right now ... and well enough for the Fed to feel compelled to
take steps to take the edge off before inflation truly becomes problematic.
 Economists are hoping that a tightening labor market, rising commodity prices, a weak dollar
and fiscal stimulus will lift inflation toward the Fed’s 2 percent target this year.
 Ken: Manufacturing and mining jobs are coming back as commodity prices rise.
 The US is going to sell $1.5 Trillion worth of new bonds to finance the debt that is being
created.
 This will massively increase the amount of dollars in circulation and driving up inflation and
raising the price of gold. Gold had been going down and then it started to spike up
 Things are heating up with Iran and North Korea.
 Gold has had a good run but for now may be near a top.
 We are expecting 3 rate increases this year.

China Officials Recommend Slowing or Halting US Bond Purchases – Bloomberg


 https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-01-10/china-officials-are-said-to-view-
treasuries-as-less-attractive
 Senior government officials in Beijing reviewing the nation’s foreign-exchange holdings have
recommended slowing or halting purchases of U.S. Treasuries, according to people
familiar with the matter.
 China holds the world’s largest foreign-exchange reserves, at $3.1 trillion, and regularly
assesses its strategy for investing them. It isn’t clear whether the officials’ recommendations
have been adopted. The market for U.S. government bonds is becoming less attractive
relative to other assets, and trade tensions with the U.S. may provide a reason to slow or
stop buying American debt.
 Ken: this is China's way of negotiating by putting out these kinds of rumors and putting
pressure on the US.
 If the economy continue to goes up, bonds will continue to go up.
 The cost of money is going to start going up.
 Major nations are beginning to switch from quantitiative easing to quantitiave tightening.
 Euro has been strengthening on rumors on quantitaive tightening.

Copper, on a red-hot winning streak, is testing a


critical level

Copper is traditionally a leading indicator of
worldwide growth.
 Just a few weeks ago, this key commodity was
showing signs of weakness, but it has rallied very
strongly since early December 2017.
 Its 11% rally since then has taken it to new highs,
back to early 2014.

5
 This represents the 50% retracement of the entire sell-off from 2011 highs, approaching
some very important resistance levels.
 Ken: Commonly called "Dr. Copper" because the saying is that copper has a PhD in
economics- if you watch copper you'll know what the economy is about to do.
 Copper prices going up is good news for Liberty Star.
 Freeport McMoran (FCX) is a copper miner that shot up since the start of the year.

Shah Gilani: The 2018 Tax Cut Boost (I Agree)


 https://wallstreetinsightsandindictments.com/2017/12/shah-gilanis-2018-capital-wave-
forecast-part-one/
 The easiest, smartest, and most financially rewarding way to play stocks and markets is by
riding trends.
 Here’s how to play 2018 markets to your advantage…The 2018 Tax Cut Boost
 On top of all the positives and momentum-driving factors propelling stocks higher, prospects
for corporate tax cuts are only partially baked in.
 Stocks will get a substantial boost in 2018 from enacted tax cuts.
 Analysts estimate that the earnings per share for the S&P 500, projected to be $141 in 2018,
will get an additional $10 per share boost if the top rate is reduced from 35% to 21%.
 More importantly, big tech stocks that are leading benchmarks, ETFs, and all passive
investment funds higher will be repatriating hundreds of billions of dollars from overseas
accounts into the U.S. when the one-time, 15.5% repatriation tax rate draws hundreds of
billions of dollars back home.
 Some of that repatriated cash will go into R&D and a lot more will go towards acquisitions.
But tens of billions, per company, will go towards special dividends and massive share
buyback programs, dwarfing all else. This will further boost the share prices of the biggest
momentum stocks fueling indexes and passive investing funds higher.
 Ken: ETFs, big companies like Amazon, Netflix, Google will all go higher.

Crypto-Currency Update: BTC, ETH, XRP
 Cryptocurrencies were impacting gold price because people were selling gold to buy crypto
currencies - the same people who buy gold, also buy cryptos.
 BTCUSD has been bouncing around

 Brother Sadhu gave a forecast for crypto currencies on January 1 that Bitcoin was
going to fall.
 Ethereum (need chart) heading straight up. It was at $300 and now at at $1,300.
 The reason for this is that Ethereum is a foundation for the crypto world. Most new crypto
currencies can't be purchased with USD but can only be bought with Ethereum or Bitcoin.
 Approximately 70% of the crypto currencies use some form of Ethereum functionality.

Ripple (XRPUSD) Surges After Teaming Up with MoneyGram on Cryptocurrency-enabled


Payment (Then Falls)
 https://finance.yahoo.com/news/ripple-surges-teaming-moneygram-cryptocurrency-
150630604.html
 Ripple is the "banker's currency" - it surged recently
 Money transfer giant MoneyGram (NASDAQ: MGI) will use the XRP crypto currency to speed
up and reduce the cost of transferring money through Ripple's payment network, xRapid.
 XRP was seen surging on the news, and flew almost 15 percent higher to $2.22.
 Ripple claims an average transaction on its network takes between two and three seconds to
process. Bitcoin transactions, on the other hand, take around 51 minutes on average to go
through, according to data by industry website Blockchain.info.
 "The inefficiencies of global payments don't just affect banks, they also affect institutions like
MoneyGram," said Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse.

7
 By using Ripple's digital asset, MoneyGram would be able to move money "as quickly as
information."
 Ripple is backed by a number of big international banks and financial institutions. In
November, the firm teamed up with American Express and Santander on a blockchain pilot to
speed up cross-border payments between the U.K. and the U.S.
 Ken: crypto currency infrastructures continue to be put in place. Governents and bankers
might want to stop it, but cryptos will continue to spread and grow.

Bitcoin Falls 12% as One of the World’s Biggest Cryptocurrency Markets Readies a Bill to
Ban Trading (Then Cancels)
 https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/10/south-korea-official-reportedly-readying-bill-to-ban-all-
cryptocurrency-trading.html
 South Korea's justice minister Park Sang-ki said that the country is preparing a bill that will
ban all cryptocurrency trading, said there are "great concerns" regarding virtual currencies.
 Bitcoin tumbled more than 12 % following Park's remarks before recovering.
 South Korea is one of the biggest markets for major coins like bitcoin and ethereum.
 More than 10% of ethereum is traded against the South Korean won — second only to the
US dollar.
 5 % of all bitcoin are traded against the won.
 Later in the day, South Korea's presidential office said that any potential bill "is not a measure
that has been finalized," eventually reversing their position.
 Ken: Koreans are gamblers and have been very active in acquiring crypto currencies with
people mortaging their homes etc. to be able to buy in.

This $3,400 Bitcoin-mining Machine is a Cornerstone of Kodak’s Crypto Pivot (KODK)
Kodak Kashminer
 https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/10/this-3400-bitcoin-mining-machine-is-a-cornerstone-of-
kodaks-crypto-pivot.html
 Ken:For years Kodak Eastman's stock has been collapsing, going from $38 to $3.
 Kodak's stock has more than tripled this week to $9.20 since the once-giant of photography
announced a pivot into blockchain technology and cryptocurrency.
 Part of their move is a Kodak-branded mining rig called the KashMiner, showcased at this
year's CES.
 Users pay $3,400 to rent the mining machine for two years.
 Kodak claims the KashMiner will produce about $375 worth of new bitcoins every month,
which would lead to estimated revenues roughly $9,000 over those two years.
But here's the catch: You have to give back half your profits.
 Others warn the $375 figure is exaggerated, as those bitcoin returns will diminish every
month: This plan only works if Bitcoin mining difficulty stays the same. However mining
difficulty is currently increasing at around 15% a month, so mining output should drop around
15% a month, too.
 If Bitcoin rises in value then mining will also become more profitable.

Global Blockchain Says it is the Lead Investor in Kodak’s KodakCoin ICO
https://www.marketwatch.com/story/global-blockchain-says-it-is-the-lead-investor-in-kodaks-
kodakcoin-ico-2018-01-10
 Shares of Global Blockchain Technologies Corp. soared after announcing it was the "lead
investor" in KodakCoin, an initial coin offering (ICO) that Eastman Kodak Co. plans to launch.
 Global Blockchain shares BLKCF jumped 24%.
 The company said it has invested $2 million in KodakCoin, which Kodak and its licensing
partner WENN Digital described as a "photo-centric cryptocurrency that empowers
photographers and agencies to take greater control in image rights management."
 Shares of Global Blockchain Technologies Corp. jumped 24% after announcing it was the
"lead investor" in KodakCoin, an ICO that Eastman Kodak Co. plans to launch.
 Kodak's stock soared 60% in morning trade. That follows the 119% surge after the
troubled camera and film pioneer announced a "major blockchain initiative."
 Ken: KodakCoin will help manage and protect the billions of professional photographs that
have been created. Photographs will be placed in a database and anyone who uses a
photograph will be forced to pay for it.
 They are setting up a system for graphics, photos and videos can be tagged and paid for with
this blockchain currency, the KodakCoin.

10
Global Blockchain Technologies (BLKCF)

 City of Wenatchee set up special economic zone with highest speed internet access.
 State of Washington has lowest power rate because of hydroelectric power from Grand
Coulee Dam and other dams on the Columbia River - electricity rates are $0.03 per kilowatt
hour vs. the rest of the nation that is $0.07 - $0.12
 This has attracted crypto currency minders en masse and now the infrastructure to provide
the power neccessary to these machines is strained.
11
 One crypto miner actually went out and bought an old power plant.
 You can buy a cargo container loaded with mining equipment and solar panels on the roof.

Bitcoin vs. Dot Com Boom

 People compare Bitcoin to the Dot Com Bubble of 2000 where everyone lost their money.
 The history of the dotcom companies is that with rapid, irrational growth, the indutry exploded
to a market value of $10 trillion.
 The market value crashed to $4 Trillion, wiping out thousands of companies.
 The industry rebuilt only to have another major correction in the crash of 2008.
 Now, 18 years later the market is back to 2000-levels and includes heavyweights like Apple,
Facebook, Uber, Google, and Amazon which have impacted entire industries.
 It's important to see that we are still early in the Bitcoin cycle.
 Crypto has only achieved 3.5% market value of the dot com bubble and right now it's
following the same pattern of growth.
 There are crypto currencies and companies that are going to be the next Amazon, for
example, but also many more that are going to fall by the wayside.
 Crypto still has tremendous potential for growth - and it could shoot up even more rapidly
than the dot com bubble did.
 Technology is accelerating exponentially and this fuels the crypto industry growth.
 Social media is a major tool for data collection by the intelligence agencies. Crypto currencies
and solutions like StartPage and Presearch are tools to help protect our privacy and protect
our searches.

This Bitcoin Price Prediction Says $75,000 Reachable in 2018


https://moneymorning.com/2018/01/09/this-bitcoin-price-prediction-says-75000-reachable-in-2018/
 At least one Bitcoin price prediction foresees the cryptocurrency going as much as five times
higher in 2018 – to $75,000.
 The Bitcoin price closed 2017 at $13,860 after gaining 1,325% year to date.
 This Bitcoin price forecast comes from John Pfeffer, a London-based entrepreneur and
investor who served as a partner at private equity firm Kohlberg Kravis Roberts.
 Catalysts that would push the price of Bitcoin several times higher in just two to three years:
 The coin that fulfills the role of "monetary store of value" will be the most valuable.
 Pfeiffer believes the cryptocurrency with the best chance is Bitcoin. "It has more users; has
decentralized (to the point of dysfunctional) governance; has more hashing power than any
other crypto; is highly stable and robust; has been around longest; and has never been
hacked."
 Reasons for predicting big Bitcoin gains are "store of value," "gold equivalence," and
"network effect."
 The "network effect" is governed by Metcalfe's Law which says means that the value of the
network increases exponentially as the number of people connected to it grows.
 Example: Having a phone in the house was of limited use when few people owned them, but
indispensable once nearly everyone had one.
 Facebook's exponential increase in value is another example of "network effect"
 The more Bitcoin usage spreads, the more valuable and useful it becomes.
 And Bitcoin is at a very, very early stage when it comes to user adoption.

13
Bitcoin Road to $800K
 If we get a migration of capital from gold to Bitcoin we could see its price go to $800K
 How much capital is likely to flow from gold to Bitcoin?
 He figures that about 38% of global, above-ground gold is held as a store of value in the form
of bullion. That translates to about $7.8 trillion.
 John Pfeffer estimates that in the long run Bitcoin will capture between 25% and 78% of the
value of gold bullion – $1.9 trillion to $6.1 trillion. That would require a Bitcoin price of
between $104,000 and $335,000.
 Bitcoin also has a chance to become a global reserve currency.
 Many countries, especially Russia and China, would rather not be forced to hold large
amounts of U.S. dollars or other nation's fiat currency to conduct international trade.
 Bitcoin is the ideal solution.
 Pfeffer estimates that a cryptocurrency as the primary reserve currency would eventually
comprise between 25% and 75% of international reserves. That's a range of $2.8 trillion to
$8.5 trillion of value added to Bitcoin's market cap.
 If you add that to the store of value amounts Bitcoin is likely to take from gold bullion, you get
a market cap range of $4.7 trillion to $14.6 trillion.
 Dividing by the estimated maximum number of circulating bitcoins (18.2 million) produces a
long-term Bitcoin price prediction of $260,000 to $800,000.
 This scenario would likely unfold over a period of years – probably a decade or more.

Atlas Cloud Enterprises (ATLEF)


 New company in Wenatchee Washington that could become a successful new miner
 Near Grand Coulee Dam, the larget power station in the US - power costs just $0.03/kWhr

14
 The have the cheapest power costs in the industry: ATLEF pays one-third of what Hive is
paying, and Hive is trading for 200% more than ATLEF
 They acquired MKH Electric City Holding - Atlas Cloud Enterprises acquired their own power
company.
 Ken: instead of buying coins, we are involved with the companies that are mining the coins

Overstock (OSTK)
 Overstock is one of the most mature blockchain/crypto companies - they have built the
foundation for lasting growth.
 Morgan Stanley invested $200Million into tZero, Overstock's blockchain stock exchange.

15
Hive Blockchain (HVBTF)
 Symbol recently changed from PRLEFto HVBTF in the US
 They are mining Ethereum and are located in Canada
 Even though Ethereum was going up, the stock was flat because they put out warrants for
$0.50 that were delayed until December. These warrants are being sold for $2.50 - $3.50 as
people are cashing out. This is keeping the price down
 In March, there is another batch of warrants coming on the market which wll continue to
depress the stock, despite the fact that Hive Blockchain is a good company with strong
fundamentals.

3 Reasons Why TRON Prices Skyrocketed 3,650% in One Month


https://moneymorning.com/2018/01/11/3-reasons-why-tron-prices-skyrocketed-3650-in-one-month/
 Several members in IWI have made a lot of money on this.
 TRON with its official cryptocurrency TRX is founded by Just Sun, Founder and CEO of
PEIWO, the largest voice live-streaming app in China, chief representative of Ripple Labs in
China and a protégé of Alibaba Group CEO Jack Ma
 TRON is a crypto network with a decentralized content entertainment system.
 Users will be able to publish and store their own data on the network, and they'll also decide
how the data is distributed and subscribed to.
 By using TRON, creators will be able to protect their content from unlicensed use, ensuring
they are paid for what gets used.
 TRON is not traded in USD but in Bitcoin under TRX.
 Ken: invest in companies that are finding ways to use blockchain technology and crypto
currencies rather than buying the coin directly. This works for those who are investing for
retirement using IRA accounts for example where they have to buy stocks.

16
MAGA Watch List Update
 Point Bridge GOP Stock Tracker ETF (MAGA)
 These are the "Make America Great Again" stocks in an ETF

Huntington Ingalls Industries, Inc (HII)

 Huntington Ingalls Industries is America’s largest military shipbuilding company and a


provider of professional services to partners in government and industry.
 For more than a century, HII’s Newport News and Ingalls shipbuilding divisions in Virginia
and Mississippi have built more ships in more ship classes than any other U.S. naval
shipbuilder.
 Trump's promise to rebuild our navy means companies like these will prosper

17
 Huntington Ingalls Industries (HII) announced that its Ingalls Shipbuilding division was
awarded a $1.43 billion contract for the detail design and construction of LPD 29, the
13th San Antonio-class amphibious transport dock.

IShares US Aerospace & Defense ETF (ITA)


 Donald Trump is committed to a strong US military - defence ETFs would be a good long-
term bet.

KOL Coal ETF


 Coal is going up and we haven't yet had Magnegas with its co-combustion technology for
example, but coal is booming under Trump.

18
United States Steel Corporation (X)
 Trump's plan for a massive infrastructure overhaul means that steel will be going up for a
while. This has not yet been announced.

Caterpillar, Inc (CAT)

 Caterpillar is going to be a great stock because of the ongoing construction as part of


Trump's infrastructure plan.
 China is also going to be doing their massive construction on their One Belt, One Road
initiative, a.k.a. Silk Road Project.

19
Global X Lithium & Battery Technology ETD (LIT)

Apple, Inc. (AAPL)


 Prophetically, we watch Apple is a leading indicator for the American economy.

Magnegas Corporation (MNGA)


 They were forced to do a reverse split becaue you cannot be listed if your stock price is less
than $1.00.
 15-to-1 reverse split
 Typically stocks go down again following a reverse split.
 Despite the good news on this company, stock holders continue to sell

20
 They are acquiring a new business about every quater and are paying with stock.
Unfortunately when this seller then cashes out and sells his stock, it drives prices down.
 Their sales volume are going up and the company is growing but selling stock into the market
as a way of financing is dragging down the price.
 The Santelli family is earning money from the sale of stock since they don't earn a salary.

Thunder Energies Corp (TNRG)


 Thunder Energies is also owned by the Santelli.
 Stock price jumped on news that they had sold a neutron gun used to scan for radioactivite
substances to check for nuclear weapons on container ships.
 They expect to now have multiple orders since ports all over the world need this technology.
These neutrons are created by Magnegas . The same technology can be used to scan
mineral resources underground.

21
 Santelli family are founders of both Magnegas and Thunder Energies and continue to get
paid in stock which they sell. Price will only go up once this trend reverses.
 If they get more sales, this company could rapidly grow.
 Buying Thunder Energies and Magnegas at these low prices is a good idea because these
companies have great technologies and just need to weather these storms.

Wealth Transfer: Cindy Jacobs

 About 200 prophetic elders gather each year at the Apostolic Council of Prophetic Elders - a
prophetic roundtable where they seek the Lord for his word for the year.
 The great transfer of wealth into the Kingdom will continue over a season
 The dollar will be a stable place in the midst of shaking - financial blessing coming to the US
 Financial blessing coming to the Middle East - especially along the Isa 19 highway. This is
region that runs from Egypt, through Israel up to Syria and Iraq. The early church was
established in this area and it was Christian, before it became Muslim.
 Egyptians who came to the Lord are called Coptic Christians today.
 Muslims are Arabs - Christians are ancient Assysrians and Egyptians.
 China is going to build their Silk Road highway all the way to the Mediterranean - it will
include a corridor of development that include high speed rail, fibre optics, superhighways
etc. All of this will make a dramatic impact on the wealth of this region.
 China is already buying property in Syria and prepare for mass infrastructure construction.
 This prophetic word sees wealth coming to the US because of our connection to Israel - and
this is being driven by Trump. Any kind of peace deal with Israel will have a dramatic impact
on the economy in the Middle East.

22
Prophetic Word (Johnny Enlow: Word for 2018)
http://www.elijahlist.com/words/display_word.html?ID=19469
Wall Street
 For those reading this whole word, you will already know that I will speak positively of the
Stock Market. However, to accommodate those who just scrolled down to this part, let me
make it clear that I do think the market can still go up substantially as one of the signs of
economic health and prosperity.
 I do not believe that the market overall is overpriced, and I see it going up to 30,000 in
Trump's day—and that may not even be its limit. There will be a great boost to the economy
from the new tax laws, as well as from Trump's economic declarations.
 Ken: Jim Goll saw the stock market going to 33,000.
 Many of you who have heard that it will be bad for the poor or middle class will soon enough
have first-hand proof that this is not so. You were a "victim" of distorted news. Of course with
it all, Wall Street itself still needs ongoing reform, but that too will begin to be spliced in at an
accelerated pace. It is a season of profound reformation.

Cryptocurrencies
 The Bitcoin and an apparent tsunami of cryptocurrencies are all the rage right now. Many
Kingdom friends are involved in them in some way or another, and I am frequently asked
about them. I can neither condemn nor fully endorse them. A simple reality is that the
economic dynamic of the dark kingdom is fear and greed (mammon).
 God's economic Kingdom works on the dynamic of faith and trust. Both entail risk, but only
one of those risks is a Kingdom-sanctioned risk. If the reason you are investing or running
with the new cryptocurrencies is because of fear or greed then that is not really a Kingdom
venture, even if you make a lot of money.
 I know that many are fearful that the dollar is going to collapse and so that fear motivation
has them looking for another, more stable currency. There is nothing stable about any of the
cryptocurrencies. ALL currencies are ultimately "fiat" currencies and there is no getting
around that.
 Ken: " ALL currencies are ultimately "fiat" currencies" This is not actually accurate. "Fiat"
means "I said so." The dollar is a fiat currency and costs nothing to generate.
Cryptocurrencies on the other hand need capital investment, power etc. to be mined and
can't just be created on a whim but have to be mined.
 The only stable currency on the planet is trust in God. All other currencies whether dollar,
gold-based, or blockchain-based contain some unknowable measure of volatility. Just watch
how the Bitcoin jumps up and down daily and you will know that it is an extremely volatile fiat
currency of its own.
 Ken: I see crypto currencies as God's answer to the moneymasters.
 Much of the ever-feared bubble has been transposed into the cryptocurrency world. It is a
whole new wild-card dynamic that has created another asset base, and its explosive
possibilities are exciting. It is generating millions and billions of dollars of value out of
essentially thin air, and that too is a dynamic of hope-filled economic atmospheres.
 Hope literally generates money, and it is the most important economic asset at a macro level.
Therefore, when a president regularly tells us that the economy is doing well and is going to
do even better, it literally has a stimulant effect.
23
Wealth Transfer?
 A coming "wealth transfer" is talked about a lot in our circles. The Iraqi dinar, a multitude of
pyramid schemes, as well as the aforementioned cryptocurrencies are often brought into the
conversation as the vehicle for how the wealth transfer is coming. Prophets are often part of
these groups or a chief spokesman for it. Unfortunately the recent history of the last 10-15
years has seen very good people and ministries lose hundreds of thousands of dollars in
these "sure thing" ventures. So I have a word of wisdom for whomever has an ear to hear.
Any investment that is predicated on either a monumental collapse or a monumental
recovery—doubt it.
 The Iraqi dinar becoming valuable has always required the Muslim world to become stable
and that is not happening in the majority of Muslim countries, and thus almost no Muslim
currency is ever going to jump 10 or 20 times in value, no matter how much oil or other
resource is there. Volatile governments keep a currency volatile, no matter how much
resource is there. Likewise, if you are counting on the monumental collapse of the US dollar
for your financial bonanza it is not going to happen. God partially put Trump in power to
stabilize the US dollar and the US economy, so that the world economy becomes more
stable. It is the devil trying to kill the dollar, the US economy, and the world economy—so
don't agree with a plan that counts on those dynamics.
 The big, missing ingredient I am finding in those who perceive they are called into "significant
Kingdom finances" is their lack of present willingness to put their money where their mouth is.
I see many aspiring "Kingdom financiers" in reality giving nothing or very little to Kingdom
people and projects while constantly speaking of how much they are going to be giving. They
explain how they need all their present thousands and millions to get to the next level. I see
the ones who God is actually prospering with next-level income are those who already
heavily invest in financing Kingdom activity, even as they contend for the greater
breakthrough.
 Great resources are being released in this season into the house of God, but your
stewardship with your first level of breakthrough will determine if you get the ultimate upgrade
you were designed to step into. In the same way you analyze stocks and markets to
determine investment intelligence, you need to be looking around at all that goes by the
name "Christian" and discern what is actually a good Kingdom soil for you to sow into. Many
of you will find your future financial harvest determined by your ability to discern what is a
God priority for you to sow into now. Future ministers of wealth will not just be gifted in
making money but in recognizing the forerunner and front-runner thing that God is saying
to sow into.
