It's crickets and chocolate covered ants from here on out.

Doubtful.
It's a little less likely than 'doubtful'. More like, 'not possible' for the simple reason that the Fed does not have a digital currency ready for launch or even close to ready.

Not yet but amazing how fast things happen when it is deemed a necessity.
I heard crickets are actually one of the tastier insects which seems weird as they seem all leggy and crunchy and whatnot.
They came as a condiment to my Oaxacan pibil tacos. I believe Klaus Schwab created the pairing combination. Or it was the Mexicans. Either way, we're doomed.

Can you believe we are three years out from the start of Covid (I think it started sooner but not “officially”)

I read on Zero Hedge this morning that the Bank of England purchased Silicon Valley Bank's UK operations for the princely sum of 1 pound.
You don't need Star Trek's universal translator to know what that means: It was worthless crap, and the UK government had to literally drop it at BoE's feet and beg them to pick it up.
HSBC, Europe’s biggest bank, announced the £1 ($1.2) deal early Monday morning, saying it would be effective “immediately.”
The official propaganda coming out of the administration, and from the usual Fed fanboys, is that this is “not a bailout.” That’s a lie. The new steps being taken by the Fed and by the Treasury are indeed ultimately bailouts for billionaires and other wealthy depositors. Moreover, this new program will require at least a partial return of quantitative easing. There’s no way to guarantee such huge sums of money without having to fall back on inflationary monetary policy yet again. This also means price inflation won’t be going away.
