I just paid $189 for Reset. Did you receive that or is that on hold, too?

I am so sorry about this. But, Derrick. Back in 2015-16 Air B&B held my money and when I attempted to retrieve it, they blamed it on Pay Pal and P. P. sent be on another go-around with A. B. B. I never got my last two guests’ payments for their stays so I cancelled my account forever! When mask mandates were launched and business refused to let me in, I never went back and to this day, I know owner, Erin, watches me patronizing all of the businesses around her. One day, in a neighboring cafe the opportunity to tell her, out loud, publicly, why I will never return, was granted me (from above), and I took full advantage of it!!!

Never, ever give in or give up!

There is always another way!!!

I stopped flying one conscious resistant day, way before all of the crown nonsense. I had just had it up to HERE, with the demeaning rituals. Flying to you will be my first flight in many years.

And Im nervous about putting myself in such a vicarious position. I do not wish to be subjected to standing firmly in 2025. I cruised with a friend for her birthday, and nearly ‘lost it,’ a couple times on that “vacation.”

I am not surprised!

I am cancelling my sub to you here, but will get some funds to you via one of your preferred methods.

Crypto is great until the power goes out.

Cash is king.

I send cash to a number of Substacks that have come to trust me.

You're gonna be in for a real treat when you figure out what crypto currency actually is.

Hi Derrick,

I vaguely remember you doing a series describing how you manage your financial life through XMR, including the wallet you use.

Is there an index post that collates links to all this information in one spot?

I'd like to send it out to my audience and also discuss it in an upcoming Livestream.

I will likely do another video about this situation.

Great.

I think it will be very beneficial if you could also outline in detail your current setup in terms of XMR and especially how you pay for goods and services, including things like travel for example (airfare, accommodation and car hire).

Its pretty easy. I am about to buy flights with Travala which allows you to rent hotels and flights with crypto.

I have a peer to peer community for trading between XMR and pesos/dollars.

Monero is not showing as a payment option there. Which crypto do you use for Travala?

so here's one way to go about it:

If you want to pay with XMR, use SimpleSwap.io to swap between XMR to BTC.

So you would send your XMR to SS for the swap and then when it asks you where to send the BTC you would input the address for Travala.

Let me know if that helps or email me at intothelight at protonmail dot com

I have no idea what XMR is but am about to go look it up…

Monero. I’m still trying to find where I can get it because a lot of exchanges don’t have it but it’s out there.

The Matrix!

This is happening internationally in the interest of their "Great reset"... People are not allowed to survive in their eyes, personally or as a group of resisters against those who want the "Great reset"! I feel for you! That is the only thing I can do for you now!

What happens if they close the account while the money is on hold? Do you lose the money? Or do they have to return the money to you since you no longer have an account there?

Expand full comment

Can someone please tell me where to get XMR? I’m having a hard time finding an exchange that I can get it from. Happy to also send it Derek’s way once I can get my hands on it. I’ve been looking for it for a minute.

When you close the account and the money is still on hold what happens to the money?

Experienced a similar invasion of my privacy with strip. For a short while had a paid substack variant but dropped it when stripe wanted a copy of my marriage license and rental agreement with my landlord. Problems there as I am divorced I have no marriage license and why do they think I have a rental agreement (did contemplate making a fake document to send to them simple enough to send them a pdf of a sham marriage licence etc) with anyone. For some reason companies like stripe and others of their ilk seem to feel they have the right to invade my privacy at will and of course I have not doubt they will share the information with anyone they wish. This for me is even worse as not only can I assume they will share the information with my own government (Canada) but also have little doubt the will share it with the US government too.

This of course causes problems for others as I refuse to have a paid account with anyone on substack as It requires me to go through stripe and I will not deal with a company that feels they need unnecessary personal information
