Founder | We've got some great news for all lovers of crypto... and even better news for the folks skeptical of such "economic wizardry." To tell it right, though, we've got to borrow your ear for a bit of a story. It's a heroic tale we could all stand to hear these days. And we promise it'll tie in to something that could allow you to profit spectacularly. [5G Stock CRUSHES Earnings!! Click Here to Find Out How.] We recently had the chance to talk with a hero. He's a humble man, so we won't mention his name. But he was a machine gunner with the 502nd Parachute Infantry Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division. History buffs will tell you that the men in that group were the unfortunate souls to be the first to jump into battle on D-Day. The man we talked to was one of the first of the first. Many of his fellow soldiers died before they hit the ground. He almost did too. A mortar exploded as he was drifting toward his destiny. He immediately felt the sting of a bomb against his chest. When he reached down to feel what was hit, he found his prayer book... and a piece of metal shrapnel that had ripped straight through it, only to be stopped by the thick back cover. But on the ground... the divine intervention seemed to come to a quick end. Shortly after landing, he found himself staring down the barrel of a gun. It belonged to one of his fellow jumpers. Camouflaged and tucked behind brush, the men were to use special brass clickers to communicate with each other. One click of the "cricket" said "Who are you?" Two clicks in reply meant "I'm with you." But in war, these tiny brass boxes were tough to hold on to. The hero we shook hands with lost his somewhere between the plane and the ground. He had no way to communicate with his comrade without giving away both of their positions to the enemy. It took some creativity to get his colleague to train his gun on somebody with much worse intent. Here's something interesting... What we didn't know before our conversation with this man is that the clickers were to be used for only the first 24 hours of the French invasion. After that, the folks back in HQ were concerned the Germans would get their hands on the devices and use them to trick our soldiers. Or worse... they'd counterfeit them en masse. A Modern-Day Problem Too This is where we turn to the world of finance and a topic that many of our fighters still can't grasp. You see, counterfeits are a huge problem in today's military. It's not just $0.50 little clickers, though. A recent report from the Pentagon said that an estimated 15% of components within its agencies are counterfeit or fraudulent. For example, several years ago, a supplier did jail time after getting caught sending the Air Force, Army, Navy and even NASA flight-critical parts that he'd obtained for just a buck each from a subpar Taiwanese supplier. In 2008, a company sold counterfeit microchips for military helicopters that had fake markings printed on them. And after testing the integrated circuits used in its subs, the Navy discovered a supplier had illegally printed names like Motorola and National Semiconductor on its products. The parts were actually refurbished units from China and Hong Kong. While these tales are far less dramatic than those our D-Day heroes can tell... the result could easily be the same. It would have been a hell of thing to scratch the sticker off your "cricket" and see a "Made in Japan" label. Fortunately, there's a modern solution to all of this. Here Comes the Technology It has to do with a subject that, as you know, we're quite passionate about. So many folks say that the world of crypto is filled with hot air. Smart contracts, tokens and blockchain don't have a spot in reality, the naysayers tell us. Well... tell that to the military. It's now using blockchain and smart contract technology to ensure that the products it gets are the products it ordered. For example, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency is working with Microsoft on a smart contract that ensures data in its system goes exactly where it should... and only where it should. You may not know it, but the military is big on 3D printing. This huge technology allows it to create and build parts anywhere in the world. But the data and designs it uses are extremely sensitive. Just like we didn't want the Germans counterfeiting our clickers... we don't want the Russians hacking our files and altering parts of our nuclear arsenal. Using new blockchain technology, our troops can ensure our data remains untouched. Unbeknownst to the crypto skeptics... the military is using Ethereum in both cases. So when we hear somebody say crypto doesn't have real-world uses... or that it's all a bunch of speculative hot air... we remind them that the world's biggest companies are using the technology. The world's militaries are using it... and giving Ethereum a slew of credibility along the way. And now the stock market is starting to lean in that direction too. In fact, we recently sat down for an interview to discuss exactly what's going on in this space - and how a new investing trend is leading to a chance to quickly make the kind of money that can last for generations. Like blockchain and crypto a decade ago... it's a brand-new asset class. Most folks haven't heard about it. They have no idea of the profit potential. But thanks to our conversation... you can get in on it for as little as $5. Our heroes 78 years ago didn't have this technology. But today's heroes are already using it. It's time to get serious about this next-generation asset class. Everything you need to know - including the ticker of one of our favorite ways to play this trend - is at this link.
