In this episode of the Keiser Report, Max and Stacy discuss Wells Fargo getting away with a measly fine for fraudulently opening bank accounts and credit cards in the names of unsuspecting customers. And while corporations in the US have the rights of individuals, like free speech, individuals do not have the rights granted to corporations – like no jail time for a fraud for which an individual would face 20 years in prison.

In the second half, Max interviews bitcoin educator, programmer, and entrepreneur, Jimmy Song, about the latest happenings with regards to building layers on bitcoin. They also discuss his new book, available for pre-order, 'Programming Bitcoin: Learn How to Program Bitcoin from Scratch', based on his blockbuster bitcoin course.

No longer just a way to make money, сryptocurrencies have become a powerful tool for protest movements, bitcoin educator, programmer, and entrepreneur Jimmy Song told RT’s veteran business commentator Max Keiser.

Saturday marked nine weeks since the Yellow Vest protesters started wreaking havoc across France. However, the movement, which began to denounce the government proposed fuel tax hikes has escalated into a general revolt against economic policies and could spill far beyond France, Max Keiser noted in the latest episode of his show. He said that it can become a “part of global insurrections against banking occupation” and “the first global insurrection to fight against globalism and the global dominance of central banks.”

If it comes to such a worldwide resistance, rather than change the political facade, people would be better off decentralizing monetary power, which is a global “big force,” according to bitcoin developer Jimmy Song.

“All of these protest movements and things like that they are going after changing who’s in charge,” Song said when asked if bitcoin is the currency of resistance. “Really what they should be doing is taking power back for themselves, decentralizing power. It starts with bitcoin... That’s a much more peaceful revolution that’s possible with bitcoin.”
