Welcome to It's About Time on ThinkTech from our downtown studio at the core of Honolulu. I'm your host Becky Samson, a professional speaker, author, and coach. So we live in a society where we are being bombarded with so much that is causing the breakdown of the human ability to deal with stress. Most of what we stress about today wasn't in the distance a hundred years ago. You might have even pondered why the number of people struggling with suicide, addiction, and depression are at an all-time high. Today we're going to be addressing all three and what we can do to make a difference in the lives of our loved ones. Joining me on the show today is Christian Jensen, the founder of the Resolving Sad Social Movement Foundation. So today we're going to be talking about suicide, addiction, and depression and how that is affecting our society in a negative way. Welcome Christian! How are you? How are you in the cold? I know you're coming from Utah. Yeah, it's freezing. Freezing, freezing. I know. I feel really bad. I know it's a lot colder here. I mean it's a lot colder there than it is here by the ocean. So thanks for being willing to join us today on the show. Just around me. Yeah, just a little background. Christian and I actually, we used to do a radio show together. Yeah? Yeah. Yeah, we did it. It was called Rain Social Radio Back. Probably how many years? Well, what is it? 12, 13 years ago maybe. Yeah, 2011. I think you were stalking me on Facebook. Yes, I was trying to figure out what you were, what you were all about. You're very interesting. Oh, you're so awesome. Well, tell everybody kind of who you are because you're amazing. I mean you do a lot of stuff and one thing I love about you and your life is I'm always looking to see what social movements you get yourself involved in and helping people with making life better. So tell everybody kind of where you came from. You actually grew up here in Hawaii in the islands. I just found out. Well, I didn't grow up there my whole life. I'm from Utah originally, but I went to Lahainaluna High School in 1982 as a sophomore in high school and loved every minute of it after the first two months of being completely harassed and almost dying every day. But I love, love, love the people and I'm a huge, huge Hawaiian in my heart. So love Hawaii. That's awesome. And so what got you, like what's your history of like how did you get into what you're doing now in being so passionate about social, you know, just helping society in the world? Well, I've always been pretty involved in protecting innocence. It kind of started back when Elizabeth Smart, I don't know if you remember the Elizabeth Smart search as most people do when she was abducted. We had a foundation at the time, a nonprofit foundation. It's a 501c3 and we donated all the computers and started up the started up all the searches for Elizabeth Smart back then and just kind of learned as we go as we went. And some really good things stemmed from that like the Amber Alert and things. So I've always been an advocate in a proponent of people just in general reaching out and doing maybe even one or 2% better every day just try to do a little more outside of their own life, you know, reach out and smile more, maybe just tell somebody that they look great. I love your glasses. I love your dress or, you know, buy somebody lunch behind you in line at lunch. I've just always been kind of a person who's been intrigued with with the results of being just simply being kind to people versus letting your own your own frustrations daily. You know, we all we're all busy.  We really can't. We can we can easily turn into exactly what we don't want to be. And I've always been somebody who's recognized that especially myself. Because I'm the first I can be as I can be the guy who's road raging on the road as fast as anybody.  And so I've always been that kind of a person, always trying to learn and trying to do better. And then I started having children and now we've got grandchildren. And, you know, I feel like I'm the perfect example of doing everything I said I never do as a kid. And I'd say I'm not going to say those things to my kids as a parent. But I'm I'm turned I've turned into the epitome of the of the crazy dad who just speaks his mind. Yeah. So but you also are very involved in that's one thing I love about you is you're very involved in the community. But you're also very involved in your family. And that's that's kind of where your passions come from. Absolutely. Yeah. So what got you as you know, as I kind of said in the intro, what's interesting is is that our society is, it just seems like we are so much more stressed. Why do you think that that is? I'm not somebody that likes to blame. I kind of promote when we when we have certain issues in our lives, I like to say it's my fault, even when it doesn't make sense. Even when I can't see that it's my fault. I like to just take responsibility for it. And then I find the solutions through through self accountability and responsibility. But I will say that one of the things the elements in life and the dynamic some of the dynamics in life today compared to when I was growing up, I remember the first cordless phone and the first touch button phone without the dialing, you know. So I recognize a huge disconnect. We're more we're more connected in society today than we ever have been at any other time in human history. We're connected to millions of people. Either consciously or unconsciously, we're connected.  That connection is absolutely disconnecting all of us at any real human level. And so we started this movement after after recognizing a lot of different things that were happening that were bringing people suicide rates and depression and addiction and anxiety and all these different issues. We started recognize we recognize that nobody's doing anything about it. I mean, there's a lot of great organizations trying to be boots on the ground, which we support. But we just wanted to kind of create our own unique element in that to resolve sad because the acronym suicide addiction and depression is sad. And we wanted to be a part of that a cycle that is changing out of the depression and the anxiety and all that. So the disconnect, what's keeping us disconnected is our massive ability to instantly connect. So when we when we have all of the technology that we have, and we were giving our six or six year olds their own smartphone, and just having them go out on the internet, you know, the average, the average kid, you know, like, I don't know the exact statistics, I don't have them in front of me. But, you know, by the time kids are six to eight to 10 to 12, you know, in those areas, they've seen all this porn, they've seen all these different things, you know, they they're being desensitized. It's desensitizing our, our, our youth and our young people. And it's, it's really detrimental to feel so disconnected and so connected to the wrong kind of stuff at such fundamental times in their life when they should be being nurtured by parenting. So the lack of parenting, the lack of, you know, and I'm speaking in general terms, this is what I see, I see that the lack of parenting, the lack of spending quality time without cell phones, without computers, without technology, one on one connections with children, first and foremost. And I know when you, when you and I first talked about this several years ago, you know, because I've been in addiction recovery for what? Oh, 12 years almost now. I love that you brought up that it's disconnection, right? Disconnection from support, disconnection from the things that matter, our values and our ethics, and those kind of things that keep us in the addiction, but also the depression and isolation that ends up with suicide. So I, yeah, and how did you, I mean, I know that sometimes it's our passions about things are driven by our pain. Have you had experiences with people in your life or you personally with any of those? Those Absolutely. Issues. Well, my, I'll give you one, one story with my daughter, she's 23 now, you know her, Sydney. These are this beautiful young woman now and incredibly strong, been through a lot. When her mother and I were going through a divorce, when she was eight years old, it hit hard and fast. And without all the details, just to make a long story short, she she ended up hanging herself around her neck with a belt in her closet at eight years old. And we found out about this later. We weren't even home. And she told us about it a few years, a few years later, and it just dropped my whole, my whole everything just dropped to the ground when I heard it. And the hanger broke. So she hit, hit the floor, and then realized, man, that hurt and that I was scary and I shouldn't be doing that. But so I, that started some when I first heard that story from her, I started thinking about some things and realizing started looking at the news and watching, looking at the things that the news wasn't sharing with us. And some of the things that I was finding that were just insane. I mean, there's so much anxiety in young people today. Anxiety like panic attacks, every other day, they're just they they'll call, you know, my daughter was calling me at 15 years old from school, failing out of school because of social pressures. Like, I've just found out my friend had had 30 likes on one post she did in 10 minutes. You know, when you and I, I couldn't believe it what I was hearing. When you and I did the rain social radio many, many years ago, I mean, we talked a lot about social media, but even in this 10 years, so much has changed with people feeling like I have to compare myself with somebody else. And then that does create this anxiety of like, I'm not good enough, or I'm not, why do they post and they seem so successful and happy and with a smile on their face. And I'm miserable inside. And I think that that's really hitting our teens. It's also hitting the adults. And I would even say it's even hitting grandparents, right? It's hitting everybody. Absolutely. Yeah, yeah, it's everywhere. I mean, and then you've got, you know, you have these, you have, you just have so many different dynamics that we have to deal with in socially speaking. And that's why we started this movement, you know, it's still the movement's still in process. And it's in a concept development stage, but we're still out there. So we hope people pay attention to it. By the way, I'm going to plug it a little bit if I it's resolving suicide addiction and depression page on Facebook. And on Instagram, it's resolving sad. And we have a resolving sad.com is the website.  And she she said she didn't have to breathe. She hadn't taken a breath in a year. And she saw one of my videos. Thank goodness. And she it inspired her and she she got a hold of me and wanted to go live and tell her story. So that those that's just a simple thing that we can do is just share each other's stories and hold each other's hands and share those stories and reach out and and just become boots on the ground ourselves. Yeah, which in turn, resolves our depression and the things that we're going through because we're actually in the service of even total strangers. Yeah. So it's a good lesson to be learned. We've got to take a quick break. Okay, I want you to return and talk more about this of why we're passionate and really what can we do when we see signs of people that are struggling with that? Yeah, we come back from the break. Okay, so we're going to take a short break. I'm Becky Samson and this is it's about time on Think Tech Hawaii. We're talking to my dear friend Christian Jensen about suicide, addiction, and depression. So stay tuned. We'll be right back. I'm J. Fidel of Think Tech.

I'm talking with my very dear friend Christian Jensen about suicide, addiction, and depression. Welcome back, Christian. I know this is, I apologize for going into the break. It's such an important part because we were talking about suicide and people that see signs, right? Because that suicide is going up. I don't know what the statistics is, but suicide, addiction, it just seems to all be coming to a head. And I want to really talk to you specifically because you have experienced it, but also like that lady that had just reached out to you. What are some of the signs that we should be looking for if there's people in our lives or even if we're feeling that way? Because I've had moments in my life that I was suicidal as well and I think I've talked to you about it before. It's just, it's an overwhelming feeling and I want to be able to provide some good stuff for the listeners and the people that are watching. What should we look for? It's interesting because there used to be, you always think there's signs to look for and there really aren't always signs. It's actually rare that there are actual signs to be looking for, but if you do see obvious signs like the typical perfect example is the kid that's always bullied in high school as a teenager or even younger. If a kid in high school or in younger ages of school, if they notice somebody that doesn't have any friends and they're sitting alone at lunch and they're being teased, that's a pretty good sign that that child, that person is going to be a little left out and it's just pretty common sense you'd think, but it's not always the case and then that's really what Resolving SAD is about. It's about promoting, reach out when you see that, when you see those signs, reach out and do something. A smile in a grocery store line and say, hey, you look great to somebody who looks sad, but look, it doesn't always have to, it can be the same issue with people who look like they've got it all together. They're driving to the United States and they've got everything going. Yeah. I was going to say to you, I was just about to say that we never know that when we smile at somebody, whether they look like they're having a good day or not, if it's going to make a difference. It's the same thing when you are very good at doing videos and sharing your stories as you were talking about before the break and you never know who's watching those and who's going to reach out to you for the help, but also I would love to have you talk about too, because I know for me, the signs for me is when I want to isolate and when I don't want to reach out for help. That's when I need to learn to reach out and say, hey, I'm not doing well right now. And to be able to have the courage to do that and know that you're heading down that direction because right, that can be a sign in itself. Just like when you're in that state of mind, when you go out into public or you get online or anything, no one's going to know. They're going to think, oh, man, she's got it together.  I don't.  I want to make it a better place. So I choose to do my best to share the good moments, the good things that are happening and keep the positive vibe out there. But we need to put a disclaimer on what I just said there we need to we need to realize the reality behind the perfect person, the perfect life, the perfect business, the perfect everything. There is no such thing.  Yeah, redefining perfect because it's it is. I mean, the same thing. I know you experiences just like I do because people look at my life on Facebook and think, oh, my gosh, Becky's living in Hawaii and everything's perfect and everything's great. And she's in the ocean every day. You know, doing the TV show stuff. And it's it is not. Look, that's something that I've realized about life is that every single person struggles. Every single person feels stress. Every single person has to deal with a different level of stress. And the thing that for me at least, that has helped the greatest is to have a team of people in my life that I know will love and trust me regardless of who I'm being at that moment that I can reach out and say, right, I need you to remind me who I am because right now I'm I'm a little crazy in my head and life seems a little overwhelming for me. And and that's what drove me to my addiction. And my addiction was food addiction. But I always tell people when it comes to addiction, it doesn't matter what the addiction is, it's us trying to escape from the reality of what is and the emotions that we're feeling. We don't know what to do with them. So it's yeah, so how can people kind of get involved in this movement that you're doing? What can we do to help? How can we like one of the things you talked about is telling our stories, which I really try to tell mine as truthful and honest as I can. Without I don't I'm not into the drama either. I don't think it's our job to just throw up. But I think it's important to be transparent. But what are some it is important? It's healing. Yeah, it's healing. Yeah, when you can be honest and transparent, you know, you don't have to be honest and transparent transparent doesn't mean that you have to tell everything.  And so like just like that beautiful woman, Chris, who called in, if you go to resolving sad suicide addiction and depression Facebook page, you can scroll down and see her video with me.  And it just a year of not breathing after your son takes his own life is she just she's thanked me and thanked me and thanked me. And it's it isn't about me. It's just I'm just providing a platform on a platform that I don't even own. I just started a page. Why don't I'd suggest if you if you have an idea to be part of a solution, go start your own platform or jump if you don't want to start a platform and take it that deep, jump on resolving sad anytime and just share your video. Ask if you can have a one on one live conversation with me or a pre recorded conversation so I can edit all the good pieces together. So when I put it up there, it can be perfect. Yeah, because a lot of people are insecure and don't and don't want to necessarily be live and they're not as vulnerable as you and me. And so or crazy, right? I think it's good though. Yeah, but I love what you just said is we've got to start sharing our stories. I think that's something in the last couple years, you know, through social media. But I think it's appropriate to be able to like, for instance, let me give you an example. There was I don't know Christian, if you saw that Facebook live I did a few weeks ago where I was literally drowning emotionally from all the stress in my life with school coming back to school after 23 years. Oh yeah, yeah. And I I mean, I was in near tears just going I don't know if I can do this like I really almost gave up. But you know what was amazing because I was so vulnerable and honest about that. I had I don't know if you saw the response on that people like but you can do it. I know you can. And please know that if you're suffering. Again, I don't believe in just totally throwing up on people, but be real and say hey, this is what I'm struggling with and and be willing to ask for that help doesn't have to be social media. It can be just somebody a private friend or something like that. But but get out of isolation. That's where addiction is that's where depression is. And it's it it literally eats away at you, right? You know, I have this saying that I think I heard it from someone before and I can't find it. I don't know where it originally came from. But it's just it's simple. And it helped me when I was going through a real, real deep, dark place where I was I did not want to be here. And I've all been there. Yeah, and I so I it's the phrase is very simple. And it was very it put something something permanently in perspective in my world. And it's what you think of me is none of my business. Yeah. Isn't that it's pretty you can take that in so many ways. What you think of me is none of my business. How many likes I have how many views I have is none of your business. What you what you think what you actually think is none of my business. So so that that is it freed me up. Yeah. Instantly when I really took that to heart. And what what, you know, what I think of them. It's the same way. Yeah. So if everybody could have that perspective with respect, you know, with common sense, we'd have close to a perfect world. We wouldn't find ourselves being so depressed so quickly over nothing. Yeah, people are getting depressed and getting in experiencing anxiety at these ultra levels, like never before never. And all because of technology, the facade of a false sense of securities day in and day out nonstop 24 seven 365. And it's just we're our minds are just overwhelmed with too much information in and out and being entered to having an entertainment value at whether it's media or literal entertainment. It's we have that entertainment value in our face, whether we want it or not, constantly. And so we do we can put our phone down. We can get off the screen. We can go to the gym with no music playing in our we can go for a hike. And believe it or not, you can even go on a hike without your cell phone.  Yeah. How healing that is. I know we are just about out of time and I want to make sure people know how to get involved in what you're doing because you've got a couple things you've got you've got your CBD oil that I've I've tried. It's amazing. And you've also got the the movement and that's you're tying both of those together. So really quickly and like 30 seconds, 45 seconds, tell me tell me how those connect and how they can get up. Yeah, so we we started a byproduct of this movement is a our own. It's called phyloids. It's phyloa is a Samoan phrase meaning do it or do you just don't hesitate. Don't think go. Yeah. And it's a we have a CBD water soluble, highly absorbable certified pharmaceutical grade CBD, which is super young started our own company to support the movement. And so this this, even in the pamphlet there, it's resolving sad. We hope people will go to the Facebook page and the Instagram and follow us. We're just starting out. We don't probably don't even have 100 people. But we we the concepts being developed for about three years now in concept. And we're working with, you know, we're jumping on with people like we just talked to Sylvester Stallone and and a couple of weeks ago and I love the concept and a lot of influencers. So we'd love all the support we can get. And then if you want to buy the product, just go to phyloa.com and phyloa.com. Try it and resolving sad. We did CBD because of one thing. It absolutely if you're if it's a real product, which we can control and verify and guarantee a lot of products out there don't even have any CBD in it. So we wanted to control our own. So that's about it. Well, thank you so much, Kristen.  We've been on this crazy journey together. So thanks for for coming on today and sharing your wisdom and thank you for what you do to help and support other people that are struggling in their life. So thank you. Thank you. Okay, thank you. We're out of time and we're going to have to wrap that up. I'm Becky Sampson with It's About Time on the Think Tech live streaming network series. We've been talking to my dear friend Christian Jensen about suicide addiction and depression. And just know that there is help out there. If that's something that you struggle with. So thanks for joining us today. And thank you to our broadcast engineer, our floor manager and a J Fidel, our executive producer who makes the show possible. And of course, I'll see you on Wednesdays for more of It's About Time on Think Tech. I'm Becky Sampson. Mahalo, everybody.


India is a place littered with incredible ancient yet unexplained ruins. Intricate ancient carvings can be found dotting the cliff faces, seemingly laser-cut caves hewn from enormous rocks, and perhaps the most impressive of its collection, the rock temples hewn straight from bedrock, which can be found all over the country. We recently focused our attention on one of these sites in particular, perhaps the most impressive of these ancient temples. Known as Kailash, it is a structure drenched in sculpted animals and religious idols. Many others also exist, somehow carved straight out of stone hillsides. The accuracy in which these structures were carved, the refined finish achieved, has allowed these structures to evade explanation to this day. There is, in fact, another site within India, another temple that, just like Kailash, was somehow hewn from a solid hillside. However, what is particularly interesting regarding this temple is that it was mysteriously abandoned leaving the apparent different stages of its construction for all to see. Known as Vettavan Coil, it is located within Kallagumalai, a panchayat town in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu, intriguingly, upon the structure and the carved walls which it is now framed by, is the same telltale chisel marks found at so many other sites around the world, an anomaly we have already covered in depth. However, what is particularly interesting regarding Vettavan Coil is the fact that these crude marks are also accompanied by the seemingly impossible perfect finished sculptures, which mystify all who peer at them to this day. It is a visual chronological timeline cast in stone, possibly left by an as yet unknown people using unexplained yet amazing artistic skills. The temple seemingly displays the methods used to carve it. The artist responsible crudely chiseled the design, presumably somehow from the mind's eye, then somehow professionally worked into the refined, astonishing art which adorned so many of these ancient Indian structures. Who built Vettavan Coil? How did they achieve such perfection, with such hard stones, at such an early time in history? Is it like academia would have you believe, a mere 1400 years old? Or is it a far more ancient structure, built using as yet unknown stone working techniques used by an unknown group of artists? As research mounts surrounding such sites, the answers will inevitably be discovered. The 16th century Kerala's temple located within India used to be the royal chapel of Travancore's former rulers. It shot to fame five years ago when one of its six vaults later coded as A was opened unearthing tons of gold coins, jewelry and diamonds worth hundreds of millions of dollars. An expert panel, inventorying assets at Kerala's famous Sri Padmanabhaswamy temple has approached the Supreme Court for permission to open an as yet untouched vault, a vault containing unimaginable fortunes, face off between the judiciary and religious authorities. The temple, situated in the heart of India, is billed as the country's richest and is one of several Hindu shrines that hold enormous amounts of gold and precious gems. The wealth was accumulated by way of holy offering from devotees over many years. The temple contains six chambers buried deep under its sanctum sanctorum. Two of them are opened during daily rituals and two more every six months. The remaining two, A and B, are secret vaults. Sources close to the temple said antique coins found in the chambers alone weighed more than 600 kilograms. Around 200,000 items were documented, 600 of which were embedded with precious gems. One single locket alone was believed to contain 997 gems. Besides jewels, precious stones, necklaces, golden crowns and pots were also included in the list of inventory sources said. According to the India Times, an audit conducted into the assets shows that a massive amount of gold has mysteriously disappeared. Up to 769 gold pots and silver bars have been reported missing, some suggesting that there are hidden tunnels beneath the chamber which allowed the architects to lock the chamber doors from within, making it impossible to breach. This secret tunnel seems to have led to many years of plundering the treasure trove without anyone noticing. However, what has not been publicly acknowledged by the Indian court is the existence of the hidden inner chamber beyond Vault B. Reported as having thick walls made from solid gold and it is where the real treasure is said to be located. Dwarfing what has been recovered so far, it could quite possibly contain the largest undiscovered treasure in the history of the world. Not only is the temple covered in gold, it seems it is also stuff full of the stuff also. An expert panel from the Center for Earth Science Studies has also quashed rumors that the B Vault has an underground tunnel connected to the Arabian Sea. The team led by Dr. Ajakumar Verma detected small cavities and drains around cellars that they found insignificant. Chamber B is not part of the temple's official treasury. The holy chamber houses idols of gods and many other valuables meant to enhance the potency of the principal deity. Also found was a pure golden throne adorned with hundreds of diamonds and fully precious stones, meant for the seeding of a past giant that has been estimated around 18 feet in height. In addition, many other large, sometimes giant and very old solid gold crowns were found, all studded with diamonds and other precious stones. The valuables are believed to have been accumulated in the temple's vaults over several thousand years, having been donated to the gods by various dynasties and kings. We will keep you posted on what they find in Vault B. India is undoubtedly the jewel in the crown of ancient sculpture. And although Rome is home to the Renaissance, an attraction which lures enormous numbers of people there every year, India is unquestionably home to sculpture, which would put even the most efficient of the Italian masters to shame. However, conveniently, academia and thus most of the modern world overlooked these astonishing feats of ancient art in favor of less controversial artistic wonders. One of our tried and tested methods of establishing whether an ancient artifact or indeed an ancient ruin attributed to a less capable, more modern imposter is actually evidence of forgotten lost knowledge, is finding the puzzling accomplishments often hidden within the architecture or construction. One of the many examples of these is polygonal masonry. And although the modern man does indeed practice this lost art, a good example of this being found within the Cotswolds in the UK, known as Cotswold Dry Stone Walling, once built and still used to mark out very ancient land boundaries, and amazingly, longer than the Great Wall of China. These very old walls, created without the use of mortar, are compelling examples of a fragmented technique, either borrowed or possibly intriguingly, leftover memories of a now forgotten technology. And although these more modern attempts range in age stretching far into thousands of years, the lesser capability of the builders is clear for all to see. Our point being that when these ancient walls stretching far before the Romans are compared to Mesoamerica, Peruvian, and indeed ancient Indian ruins, the exquisite polygonal architecture, the precise carving and stone building present, are clear, strong, controversial evidences of a forgotten civilization. How did these ancient builders acquire such a sophisticated knowledge and awareness of stone shapes, and the subsequent placement of each stone, perfectly placed against one another, forming impenetrable barriers which have stood the tests of the ages? We feel that, regardless of what academia claims as the truth, pertaining to the origin and creators of these ancient wonders, the skills required to create them are thankfully beginning to become apparent to the majority rather than the few. This ancient, forgotten people clearly attained a level of stoneworking and construction knowledge we are yet to acquire. Clearly, a far more advanced and capable people than we are today, let alone the modern historical imposters academia claims as the culprits. We feel, regardless of others' claims, the evidence to suggest an intercontinental, highly advanced, technologically superior civilization once flourished here on our planet is highly compelling. While perusing the many perplexing sights we are yet to cover on our channel, we stumbled across something which could quite possibly be a massive clue, evidence left as to the method of construction of many ancient sights found all over Earth. Our channel has, for a long time, put forward the hypothesis that a highly advanced worldwide civilization once flourished here on our planet. We believe that many of the ancient sights which display unexplained architecture were left by this lost people, placed far within our distant past. And once one begins to investigate these ruins with this possibility in mind, you start to notice some compelling things regarding these amazing sights. For example, the metal clamps we have previously covered, often created using impressive mixes of alloys and somehow poured molten, could now be seen as earlier architectural examples less than the mortarless, mysteriously notched stonework, also found in similar areas all over the world, with the more precise and thus more impressive stonework seen as a later, more sophisticated method of construction. What's more, although virtually all ancient sights have been dated to the most convenient suspects within known taut history, there also exists the numerous caves and temples hewn from the solid bedrocks carved with such accuracy and vision, they elude recreation even by our modern-day technology. And while looking at an amazing rock-cut cave within the site of Mamala Purim, India, a site we are now convinced was left by this same civilization, a curious piece of evidence seemingly presented itself. Upon the roughly finished roof of this ancient cave, is evidence left by the same technology used to not only cut the astonishingly hues Longyu caves, but also the abandoned Lang Shan quarry, both in China. This discovery, we believe, is only just the beginning of a realization that these telltale signatures are present at many other unexplained sites around the world. We have long stipulated that many of the ancient ruins claimed by our more modern-day ancestors are most likely not their actual creations. If the structure does date to this more recent age, they are usually found to be sitting upon the telltale remnants of a highly precise ancient foundation originally left by this elusive group. Who were these amazing people? When did they flourish here on Earth? What happened to them? Why did they never record how they created such wonders? Although it is easy for skeptics to argue that the caves in architecture were merely created through excruciating hard labor, any practical demonstration of this has eluded us for many centuries. Furthermore, many of the extensive cave excavations found all over the world, presumably dating back to this bygone age, are all absent any waste, as if the machine task with creating these underground labyrinths turned stone to dust. And although the technology and or possible machinery tasked with the job has evaded modern archeology to this point, it is clearly another piece of evidence which takes us one step closer to unraveling the true history of our planet. Just how old is human civilization? It should be clear to anyone who has spent any length of time perusing our channel that the majority of our antiquity, no matter how astonishing, is, according to modern academia, all built by our less capable ancestors, placed considerably more recently within human history. During our extensive research, we have often unearthed overwhelming evidence for an immensely larger human timeline. Additionally, we feel there is strong evidence to suggest that more than one period of prosperity has been experienced in the past. We have realized that this record of past global inhabitants is merely limited to its resistance to erosion. Put another way, there appears that many past civilizations have come and gone, going back beyond what is now still in existence. The human species, it seems, has outlived the existence of our oldest ruins here on Earth. Many ruins we have explored are now argued as geological formations. This authoritative subjection is merely testament to their immense age, and also begs the question, what other ruins may have been lost to erosion? How much older does human civilization actually reach back in time? And just how advanced have past civilizations become? One clue to this answer lays within the ruins themselves. Astonishing feats of engineering that not only indicate a high level of intelligence, but also technological prowess. Extraordinarily refined works, which can still be found in the less inhospitable environments of Earth. One of these lesser-shared sites is undoubtedly Verangal. Located within the South Indian state of Telangana, it was predictably once snapped up by our less capable ancestors, possibly claimed as their own, subsequently becoming their capital. Home of the Kakateya dynasty from the 12th to 14th centuries, this inhabitation, we feel, has then been used, regardless of the ancient ruins in question, to age the stone carvings which can be found at the site. Stone monuments carved with such accuracy, skill, and precision that they evade any logical explanation as to how they could have been completed with any of the technologies we know were available to the Kakateyans, specifically within the 12th century. The site clearly demonstrates tremendous skill and also technological prowess. These stone monuments were clearly not only created to express an artistic message, but they were undoubtedly created to display the creator's capabilities, encapsulated in time, quite possibly for the exact purpose of people like us to recognize them, as they may have with similar ruins that were possibly in existence during their own lifetimes. There is a greatly more interesting and extensively larger story to tell regarding the history of our planet. However, as long as those in power feel inadequate, simply saying, we don't know, ignorance and lies will continue to plague our species. We've often put forward the premise that within our very distant past, a cataclysm occurred, or more precisely, a great flood. Many surviving ancient sites around the world bear the scars of this event. The Great Pyramids of Giza, for example, still held chambers flooded with ancient seawater deep within their bowels until very recently. Much of this evidence slowly removed over the past few decades. And our next ancient structure is no different. Known as Adam's Bridge, it is an astonishing feature which stretches 30 kilometers, connecting southern India with Sri Lanka, believed to date from a pre-Diluvian age, some 1.7 million years ago.  However, with a dating of over 1.5 million years, it is clearly a site that academia will continue to reject as actually being man-made, regardless of the mounting data in favor of such a reality. It seems that regardless of the overwhelming evidence that the mountain of unexplained accomplishments by our quote, primitive ancestors, modern scholars of many subjects, continue an existence in complete denial of these truths. Dr. Bajranarayanan, former director of the Geological Survey within India, performed an in-depth analysis of the suspected bridge's makeup. His research concluded that the Adam's Bridge was indeed an artificial man-made structure, one which stretches far back into the unknown history of our planet. Below the surface, they found organized layers of sandstone blocks, coral boulders, and other cement-like substances. Several divers investigated the length of the bridge and concluded that its entire layout was indeed of an organized and thus artificial nature. The survey also revealed extremely ancient evidence of intense quarrying was also left within the surrounding area, these materials matching those placed carefully within the causeway itself. Interestingly, ancient Hindu legend from the area agrees that this enormous feature is indeed a now-submerged, gigantic earthwork, stating that it was built for the god Rama in order to help him cross the land to the large island to rescue his beloved from a demon. Is Adam's Bridge really a huge pre-diluvian sunken artifact? A 30-kilometer man-made bridge which once connected the two countries? It's an amazing proposition, and the more we learn about the amazing history which was lost here on our planet, the more it seems like a real possibility. Thanks for watching guys, and until next time, take care! Can only be seen as a demonstration of their superior ingenuity. It seems the invention of the first seismoscope can be traced back to 132 AD, when a Chinese inventor called Chang Heng perfected a device remarkably accurate at detecting earthquakes, even from afar. Although the ancient Chinese did not fully understand the cause of earthquakes, they did see it as very important to keep track of such events, perceiving these disturbances with cosmic yin and yang. It was, therefore, important for the Chinese emperor to be alerted of any earthquakes occurring anywhere in their kingdom. Chang's ingenious seismoscope was almost six feet across and made of solid bronze, decorated with eight dragons marking compass directions. Within each dragon's mouth was a small bronze ball, and beneath sat eight bronze toads. A mechanism within would somehow detect an earthquake occurring in the distance. This would then cause a ball to drop out of one of the eight dragon's mouths. What is fascinating regarding Chang's invention is the fact that no one seems to be able to figure out for a certainty how it worked. One theory is that a thin stick set loosely down the center of the barrel. When an earthquake occurred, a stick would topple over in the direction of the seismic shock. According to legend, when Chang first showed his invention to the emperor, it indicated that a quake had occurred to the west of Lu Yang, the capital city at the time. A few days later, a messenger from the region arrived reporting that there had indeed been an earthquake there. Around the time Chang's machine had indicated. When specialists first realized what the machine was, they struggled to believe that this 2,000-year-old invention could actually work. So, in 2005, scientists in Zhenzhao, China used it to detect several earthquakes. The seismoscope detected all of them. In fact, the data gathered from this 2,000-year-old machine corresponded with that gathered by modern-day seismometers, a marvelous machine left to us by a once-ingenious civilization. Osaka Castle, one of the most important historical structures in Japan, having played a defining role in unifying Japan during the 16th centuries. It is a structure whose enigmatic characteristics we have covered in the past. The main tower of Osaka Castle, situated on a plot of land roughly one square kilometer in diameter, is built atop two raised platforms, supported by sheer walls of cut rock, created using a technique called burdock piling. With some of these wall faces also containing compelling precision ancient stonework, a feature we initially focused on in our previous video. However, there also exists other intriguing anomalies within the grounds of the castle, a series of stoneworks of gigantic proportions. Enormous walls, which many of you may not be aware of, rarely shared by academia. These sections were created with polygonal masonry techniques, a method of advanced block building unexplained, subsequently lost to the eons. Due to their unexplained nature, these hidden features, we believe, are clear evidence of an original structure far outdating the modern castle and indeed attested historical accounts. Yet what is undoubtedly the most striking characteristic of these surviving barriers is their size. Many of the surviving blocks, each of a unique shape, were once masterfully placed, seemingly effortlessly atop one another with incredible precision, stones stretching far into the hundreds of tons. This astonishing feat of ancient engineering, utilizing blocks of gargantuan sizes, is also present at many other ancient sites throughout the world. It is not only indicative of a lost, advanced, highly capable civilization, but the question as to how they managed to cut, move and eventually place such enormous weighted stones with such precision remains a baffling mystery yet to be unraveled. Furthermore, there not only exists astonishingly huge polygonal masonry within the grounds, but there also still exist mysterious carved stones in and around the grounds of Osaka Castle. Perplexing megalithic stones, unquestionably carved for a past purpose, which possibly, due to their immense size, are the sole surviving remnants of other ancient features, now nearly all but eroded away, as such, their past function is now unknown. Yet, regardless of these unanswered questions, we maintain a hypothesis that like the many other astonishing ancient ruins found on differing continents, for example, Baalbeck, the Great Pyramids, Saksaihuaman, Qlap, etc., that due to these sites' characteristics, specifically the immense size of the stonework involved in their original construction, and thus their once impenetrable nature, were utilized by a later civilization, an Osaka Castle being no exception, built upon a foundation far older than modern academia would ever willingly admit to. The fact that no modern explanation exists, pertaining to how these gigantic megaliths came to be placed where they are found today, in addition to an absent understanding or explanation as to how polygonal masonry was completed, especially with such enormous quarried stones, we feel is strong evidence to support our posit that the foundations of these ancient structures are far older than their current dating. Foundations which were almost definitely the work of a past highly capable civilization, responsible for all the other, as yet unexplainable ancient wonders found around the globe. The question is, who were these ancient builders? How did they move such massive stones? Did they utilize technologies reminiscent of modern-day lifting equipment? Were all of these ancient structures built by the same governing force, with the slight variations present from location to location, only as a result of the different cultures who were responsible for the actual undertaking? Was this knowledge of highly advanced ancient building techniques shared worldwide? If this is the case, it is a strong indicator that most of what academia continues to pedal, as a complete timeline of man, is vastly inaccurate and missing vast chapters of past development. Where did this highly advanced group go? Why are there so many quarries and indeed unfinished ancient megaliths found all over the world, spanning as far as the notoriously remote island of Easter, all seemingly abandoned abruptly? Did this civilization fall victim to cataclysm? Or perhaps their fate was far more transcendental, regardless of these unanswered questions regarding their final destination? We feel Osaka Castle is undoubtedly yet another example of extraordinary ancient feats of prehistoric engineering by a group we are yet to fully understand, and as such is undoubtedly highly compelling. There are many aspects of ancient ruins which can indicate a far more advanced technologically capable constructor than are currently academically attested. Massive, seemingly impossibly huge megalithic blocks precisely placed within their constructions. Advanced weight-bearing architecture that could have only been understood by a civilization with a far more knowledgeable set of building strategies than those claimed as the culprit, our own well-studied, more recent ancestors. Precision toolmarks that could have only been left by high-rotating precision machinery etched and worked into notoriously hard stone, stones such as granite that, thanks to its erosion resistance, still possess these clear evidential scars left by these enigmatic machines, leaving us to ponder an academia to ignore. Mysterious alignments often created using enormous stones that, according to the history books, were placed by groups of ancestors who simply couldn't have known these precise precision alignments, let alone worship them with such megalith stonework. Metal clamps used the world over to latch these enormous blocks together, used by a mysterious civilization who were somehow aware of the fact that these stones would shift as the years went on. With many of these clamps cast into place, this hypothesis, supported by the evidence of vitrification upon the surface of the stonework, strong evidence of a civilization that had mastered the control of immense heats, reminiscent of modern-day refineries, with the rare example of a massive upart, like the giant glass Bess Chiarim slab, further supporting this past mastery of extreme temperature refinement. Yet, the most notable and most numerous proof of this past lost civilization, and indeed their forgotten technology, is polygonal masonry. With some of this stonework clearly of such a great antiquity that it is slowly losing its recognizable form. One of these forgotten sites is Ori Castle, found deep within the forests of Japan. Located on Shiroyama Mountain, it was named after its supposed builder, Mitsutata Ori, who was the leader of a clan also named after him, the Ori Clan. Ori and his clan originally stem from the Toki Clan, but once expelled from their land and left to wander, Mitsutata recovered their land in 1536, and supposedly built a new castle on the mountain. However, due to the as yet unexplained polygonal masonry, and also its clearly incredible age, we tend to believe that Mitsutata merely rediscovered this fortress within the forests on the mountains and used them to regain a foothold within the area, thus naming the castle after his efforts. The true age of the castle we feel is unknown, although we strongly suspect that it predates many of the other anomalous polygonal masonry that can be found within Japan, such as the foundations of Osaka Castle, an astonishing group of features we have covered previously. However, due to the sheer age of the ruin of Ori Castle, the stonework has eroded to such a degree that it takes a keen eye and a few years of practice to be able to identify it as having once been the same level of precise polygonal masonry as that found elsewhere within Japan. Who built Ori Castle? Was it really abandoned mid-build as academia claims? Or was it, like we postulate, simply left to ruin, a relic of a now-forgotten civilization left to simply erode away, eventually to a point where geology will argue it away as a mere natural formation? We find Ori Castle, and indeed the many other enigmatic sites to be found within Japan, quietly kept away from curious minds throughout the world, as undoubtedly highly compelling. My mission upon this channel is to provide details regarding ancient ruins, artifacts, and technologies that clearly demonstrate that there once existed lost ancient advanced civilizations that have been lost here upon our planet. My unwavering research dynamic is that said subject matter is crucially factual. Thus, it is always based upon that which I have personally sought to confirm as undeniable realities before sharing. I do not only offer an intellectual armory for you, the viewer, who is often confronted with many academic fallacies, but particularly the younger viewer. Enabling their empowerment to correct academics, often ordered to pass on such fallacies through a permitted curriculum. As such, I feel that it is crucial that not only are the facts I share established proofs, but that features which they explain away as others' work are established as beyond doubt as currently unexplainable, as such undeniable as the work of others. Exposing academia's lies due to our ancestors' limitations, ancestors often claimed as the constructors of said ruins found throughout the world. Due to this bestowed responsibility to only convey historical accuracies, established mystery, and ancestral limitations, many independent researchers often privately contact me via my secure armored email, often sharing not only their own controversial research, sometimes including their own expedition details, but also academics in positions of tremendous public influence, who not only share my view that much of the history currently being taught to future generations is not only inaccurate, but is based upon a conspiracy of concealing past civilizations. One such email received recently pertained to something known as the moonshaft. However, although this is not the main theme of this particular video, I will briefly cover what has been shared with me, and after further research, endeavor to do a detailed video in the future regarding said explorations if enough evidence of its existence can be established. Sent to me by Mike Collins, a member of an unsuccessful expedition to try to rediscover this mysterious layer, a brief prologue is as follows. Three soldiers hiding from the Germans in the Tatra Mountains in Slovakia discovered a layer which could possibly be the oldest man-made structure in the world. The structure is believed to be between 300 and 310 million years old by a number of individuals, with Heinrich Himmler even sending several scientific expeditions into the Tatra Mountains looking for the shaft, with members of the KGB also attempting to obtain the diary writings on the experience from these deceased soldiers. End quote. Although compelling, I am reluctant to cover this story yet due to a lack of any physical evidence regardless of the considerable lengthy testimonies that pertain to its existence. I intend to invest some time in researching it further myself first. However, tonight's subject originates far away from the supposed moonshaft in China. Ancient star maps of such accuracy and range that due to currently attested academic understandings of the history, they simply should not have possessed such knowledge let alone been able to accurately illustrate it upon parchment, known as the Dunhua Star Chart. The chart is the first accurate graphical representation of star locations within ancient Chinese astronomy, and it is of nearly every star across the atlas. According to modern academia, it is dated to the Tang Dynasty between 618 and 907, although I feel this is actually a copy of charts of a far earlier age and thus of a far earlier, far more capable civilization. Before this map, much of the star information mentioned in historical Chinese texts was drastically inaccurate. However, this map provides a graphically precise verification of star observations and are part of a series of charts all known as the Dunhua manuscripts. It seems, however, in an attempt to quell the curiosity of the astute among us, considerable funding has been funneled into constructing an excuse for its existence. This funded project is known as the International Dunhua Project, with much of the research and indeed exclusive access to the maps solely granted to these academics, which I believe is an attempt to convolut their importance. However, regardless of these tremendous efforts, there are many features of the map which remain unexplainable, compelling evidence of them being Chinese copies of knowledge left over by a past, vastly more advanced civilization, copies of elusive manuscripts that at some point within Chinese antiquity were most probably found preserved somewhere. First, the Dunhua star map is to date the world's oldest complete preserved star atlas, meaning that before the ancient Chinese were even a seafaring civilization, they somehow had access to knowledge of the accurately plotted star charts of both hemispheres. Additionally, the main image, which many presume is the entire Dunhua star chart, an insinuation implied by Wikipedia, is only a small fraction of the collection. Yet this piece in itself is an exact accurate plotting of polar constellations, and due to these ancient Chinese people being incapable of such tremendous voyages, not only does the advanced knowledge copied down upon these charts strongly support my posit of them being a rediscovered copied relic of a past civilization's knowledge. These copies were found in the early 1900s in a walled up cave containing a cache of manuscripts. They were discovered by Chinese Taoist Wang Yuanlu in a cave system known as the Mo Zhuo Caves. Although the scroll with the star chart was found amongst those documents by Oral Stein when he visited and examined the content of the cave in 1907, one of the first public mentionings of these script in western studies was from Joseph Needham's 1959 version of the book Science and Civilization in China. Since that time, however, only a few publications have conveniently been devoted to the map, nearly all being Chinese publications. This map, or as we postulate, accurate copy, was made around the year 700. I feel their lack of public exposure and my reasoning for asserting that they were copies of a far more advanced civilization's work is not only due to the Chinese civilization's inability to travel to such locations to plot such charts at the time, but that the whole set of star maps contains over 1300 stars. Not only proving that, although the Chinese are academically claimed to have believed the world was flat at the time, the star charts prove beyond doubt that they had knowledge of constellations from around the globe. The academic explanation for this is that although the Chinese supposedly presumed the world was flat, they somehow assumed that the heavens were somehow spherical, which to me just seems like a desperate attempt to discredit such manuscripts' true origins. I believe, due to the in-depth and accurate knowledge copied upon the star charts, much of which were far out of the reach of this ancient civilization's observational capabilities, be clear proof that they had discovered maps left by a civilization that was not only seafaring but global. Also, due to the chart featured on Wikipedia, had successfully explored the poles and accurately mapped its constellations. How did the ancient Chinese have such in-depth knowledge of so many constellations, especially polar constellations? We find such manuscripts, academia's funneling of considerable funding into the discrediting of their inexplicable nature and their lack of exposure as highly compelling.


Good afternoon now from my side. So my name is Victor Anglecheider, I am the representative of Bank de France in the Eurosystem Task Force that is exploring this potential use of new technology for wholesale central bank money settlement. I will introduce on my side, introduce you to the full-data interpretive solution that is the third solution available for experiments and trials in this exploratory work. Moving to the next slide, I will guide you into this full-data interpretive solution in two parts. First, we will try to better understand what is the solution at stake with the experiments have been led to the solution and how it would work if it is implemented. In summary, we will see what are the objectives and the main features of the solution. Then in the second part, I will focus on the setup of the solution for the exporter work itself. Next slide. So indeed the full-data solution that is proposed for this exporter work results from a large scope of experiments that we have conducted at Bank de France level through what we call learning by doing an approach. The dozen experiments that you see here have been part of the largest program ever conducted at central bank level with the aim to investigate how to set the transaction on tokenized or native digital assets with wholesale central bank money available in the form of CBDC tokens. For that, the use cases that we have explored have included either DVP, the boxes in blue here with cash token against asset tokens or PPP, the boxes in yellow here for an exchange of cash tokens in two different currencies. The objective of these experiments have been to allow the market to reap the benefits of the blockchain on their side when setting transactions on DLT with the usage of a CBDC token as a safe settlement asset. In order to do so, we have worked with a large range of stakeholders such as commercial banks, central banks, issuers. For DVP with the large variety of assets, you can see in the use cases type one here, such as bonds, shares, usage of sovereign bonds. And for PVP, as you can see it in the use cases type two, we have covered remittances as well as cross-border and cross-currency payments or even covered some advanced process imagined from the DeFi, such as the automated market maker project that we have conducted with other central banks. As regards the blockchain technology, we have conducted these experiments on public as well as on private blockchain in a way to be as much exhaustive as feasible for the technology assessment. All in all, this large program has allowed us to identify three full DLT solutions that you can see on the left side here, namely the interoperability distribution and integration, each defined in the way we make the CBDC available together with the asset token on the same DLT for integration and distribution or across two DLTs for the interoperability model. At this point in time, as was mentioned by the colleagues, this last interoperability model has been chosen as the easiest and safest one we can start with in this exploratory work and that I will detail now. But for further details on these three full DLT solutions as well on this program of experiments, you can follow the link at the bottom left here to the Bank of France report. Next please. Now, out of these experiments, let's have a forward-looking view if implemented on the full DLT interoperability solution that is proposed for this exploratory work. As a reminder, the aim of this solution is to provide safe wholesale central bank money as cash on the ledger in order to settle a counterpart leg also on the ledger. On that basis, subject to detailed feasibility assessment that may occur out of this exploratory work. First, the EUR system DLT that you see as an hexagon here, including a wallet, would be an additional service offered by the EUR system. Second, the wholesale central bank money available on such EUR system DLT would be the direct liability of the EUR system equivalent to the conventional cash balances available in the other pots of liquidity. As such, the EUR system would ensure, as shown in point three, seamless liquidity management between the existing liquidity pots and the new EUR system DLT liquidity pots. The role allowing, as concluded in point number four, the settlement of participants would sell CBM on the EUR system DLT to be final and irrevocable. Next please. More specifically now, let's see how the settlement would work in an implementation view of the solution. As I said earlier, the objective of the solution is to make central bank money available for the settlement of transactions on blockchain with the settlement performed across two distinct DLTs. The one being the cash DLT platform set up by the EUR system on which central bank money would be issued and used for settlement and the others being DLTs set up by the private sector such as market DLT for DVP or by other jurisdiction outside the EUR area for PVP. Therefore making the cash leg and the counterpart leg both available in the form of tokens for cross ledger settlement. In a way to meet this objective, the main characteristics of this solution are for the market participants to hold the world's central bank money in the form of cash tokens on the DLT of the EUR system. Therefore fully leaving the central bank money under the control of the central bank on this DLT. Whereas the asset token can be owed on a market DLT where the participant expects to reap the benefits of the DLT be it in a private permission or public blockchain. With the DVP being performed across the two DLT using NHTSC protocol that orchestrates the transfer of cash on the cash DLT in the box on the left side and the transfer securities on the market DLT in the box on the right side in the wall in an atomic way. These characteristics combining the full control of the central bank money on the side of the central bank and the ability to use any type of blockchain on the market side has led us as I mentioned before to select this full DLT model to start the exporter work. Whereas policy issues still remain under investigation regarding the other models that I've mentioned before having the cash and the asset tokens available on the same ledger. Next please. Now as a second part of the agenda let's see how this model is used for the need of the exporter work itself in terms of setup in terms of actors able to use it or in terms of technology available and more specifically let's see how the settlement is performed atomically across the two ledgers by the participants that are allowed to use this solution. Regarding the setup of this solution for the exporter work the solution keeps of course the same objective and the same characteristics we have just described for the so-called steady state version. Erwin has searched to explore the features of this solution under the experiments of the trials. However for the for the purpose of this exporter work only exporter cash tokens also named ECTs will be used as a proxy for the wall say central bank money on DLT meaning that these ECTs will not yet be the result of a liquidity transfer from the euro system global pot of liquidity but only as an experimental liquidity reliant on on those are prevalent escrow camps that have been described also before which does not by the way does not prevent from exploring the usage of cash tokens and the benefits of handling both layers of the settlement under the same technology. Similarly the DLT that will be used for this exporter work shall be the DLT platform that has been developed by Bank de France out of the experiments that have presented before as a proxy of the euro system DLT platform. Next in terms of actors now this solution will involve three categories of players on the cash DLT. First the box on the on the right the central banks in their role to meet either to issue or to burn I mean to redeem the so-called exploratory cash token. This meet and burn been once again necessary since the liquidity is not directly transferred by the participants from their global liquidity pot to the DLT pot. Then on the left side the second type of actor will be the payment banks on DLT meaning the banks holding the cash on the cash DLT with the strong conditions for these banks to be outages participants since the access to the world's central bank money is restricted to such outages participants. These payment banks will hold their cash DLT on dedicated cash wallets for their own usage or for the usage of their clients and most importantly these payment banks will be in charge to perform the DDP through the HTLC process on the cash side. Last in the box on the bottom on the right side a third type of player the clients of payment banks will be able to act as an optional actor as such they cannot hold the cash wallet since they are not outages participants but they will be allowed to use the outages account of their payment banks wallet through what is called a sub wallet with in this case a read on the access to such purchasing power granted by their payment bank. Next please from a technological viewpoint the underlying features of this solution includes an implementation on the on the hyperledger fabric road chain under a permissioned network including notes representing organizations that are authorized to join this network and granted with access to data and usage of functions such as the mint and the burn of cash tokens and allocating the cash tokens in dedicated cash wallets to settle the transactions meaning that the notes can be allocated either to central banks or to payment banks for their clients. In terms of infrastructure these notes are hosted on the France cloud the whole to allow to perform the settlement of DDP or of a PVP as we describe it in the in the next slide. Indeed the key feature now of this interoperability model is to allow the atomic settlement of the DVP or the PVP by using this HTLC protocol that allows a conditional payment cross network relying on exchange of secrets the the hash of HTLC under a given time bounds the the time lock of this acronym with the seller and the buyer having their corresponding cash and securities custodians involved on the respective platform. On that basis securities and cash are settled atomically meaning on an all or non basis with an actual exchange of securities and cash if resources are available on each DLT platform or with no settlement at all in case of resources failure or calling for a contingency procedure should this DVP fail for any other cause than the resource failure for example power failure with the DVP being initiated by the market DLT was the trade information that are legally binding from from their side so that's it for the the principle of the settlement protocol that we wanted to keep as high level and easy to understand as possible at this point in time in this in this session but should you need it and you may need it for further details on this process are available in the service description that is included in the the call of expression of interest next slide now in practice and and to conclude this presentation let's see how to participate in in the exporter work with this full DLT interoperability solution as a first step any commercial bank that is interested to participate in to this work we'll have to contact its central bank i.e. the central bank of of its jurisdiction as was as was detailed before this central bank will of course get in contact with the with the cb task force and with the ncb provider of the solution this commercial bank wants to test meaning here with bank de france for this interoperability solution then in a step two the onboarding on the R2GS side will be performed by the central bank of the candidates jurisdiction then as is mentioned in the step three here either this central bank will hold a note on the bank de france DLT network in order to manage the exporter cash token i.e. by performing their mint and burn and by allocating these tokens to their participant's wallets or as is represented in in the step three this year as an alternative this central bank does not act into the bank de france network and prefers to outsource this task to bank de france as the solution provider i.e. in that case bank de france will perform the mint and burn of these ects based on funding performed by the by the commercial bank with its central bank so that's it for this first i level description of our solution on next slide i invite you to move to the demo now and see how this works in practice with a look on the tools made available in the in DR3S and i will be happy after that to answer any questions you may have on this on this solution the full DLT interoperability solution is one of the three solutions available in order to perform the euro system exploratory work this full DLT solution is the only one that offers the usage of cash tokens for the settlement of the cash leg of your DVP or one of the two legs of your PVP this cash leg using cash tokens is handled on the DL3S DLT platform that has been developed by the bank de france based on hyper ledger fabric for experiments it has conducted in the last few years this demo provides you insights into the main features you will have access to when using DL3S to make your payments with cash tokens the euro system exploratory work aims at assessing interoperability type solutions to provide central bank money on the cash leg for transactions on market DLT with trials using real operations or experiments using fixtures operations these trials and experiments involve transactions settling a tokenized asset available on a market DLT against the central bank money that is available in the form of an exploratory cash token on DL3S the full DLT interoperability solution provides three major features first it meets the need for safe transactions with settlement in central bank money second it meets the need for innovation with cash on the ledger available in the form of exploratory cash tokens for the trials and experiments third it meets the expectation for an atomic settlement with DVPs performed across the cash and market DLT relying on settlement automated mechanisms such as the HTLC protocol the full DLT interoperability solution allows the settlement across DL3S for the euro tokens and the market DLT for the asset tokens relying on a settlement automated mechanism such as the HTLC protocol it provides the main following functionalities number one the management of dedicated cash wallets number two the minting of exploratory cash tokens at the start of day to bring the liquidity from CLM or T2 to DL3S number three the execution of a DVP with the payment of the cash leg under an atomic settlement initiated by the market DLT platform here relying on a settlement automated mechanism HTLC it allows the payment by payment banks on DLT or by their clients through the dedicated cash wallets of RTGS participants the only ones that are allowed to hold a dedicated cash wallet number four the burn of exploratory cash tokens at the end of day to bring back the liquidity to T2 or to CLM first let's start with the dedicated cash wallets management the exploratory cash tokens used for cash payment are held in dedicated cash wallets the management of these dedicated cash wallets allows the opening enclosure of dedicated cash wallets the initiation of exploratory cash tokens transfer and redemption operations and the visibility on balances and transactions history as a payment bank under the jurisdiction of a national central bank willing to use exploratory cash tokens to buy tokenized securities I have to ask my national central bank to open a dedicated cash wallet for me on DL3S once my dedicated cash wallet is opened I can have access to my wallet's information through the user interface and my national central bank can supervise what I have on my wallet as well as the operations I initiate as a result the dedicated cash wallet of payment bank s is opened by its national central bank ncb1 and the dedicated cash wallet of payment bank d is opened by its national central bank ncb2 next the mint of exploratory cash tokens allows to create liquidity at the start of day in the form of exploratory cash tokens these ects are created by the national central bank on DL3S against a transfer of liquidity based on s grow accounts in the RTGS for the exploratory phase or directly from CLM for the steady state phase concretely on the screen as a national central bank I can initiate exploratory cash tokens issuance operations on payment banks dedicated cash wallets once the operation is settled the payment bank can see the balance of its dedicated cash wallet updated with the posting of cash tokens credited on its wallet as a result based on a transfer on t2 10 000 euros are transferred from transit wallet to bank s wallet on DL3S now for management of the delivery versus payment cross-chain DVPs between DL3S and a market DLT involve a seller and a buyer here bank b is selling securities to bank s versus a payment of exploratory cash tokens from bank s to bank b once both payment banks agree on the trade the DVP transaction is initiated on the market DLT side and then settled on both sides in an atomic way securities are delivered on market DLT and cash is transferred on DL3S in practice once the DVP is triggered on the market DLT and settled both payment banks involved in the transaction can check the cash postings related to the DVP with a credit on the balance of the seller bank b and a debit on the balance of the buyer bank s as a result a quantity of 70 securities is delivered from bank b securities wallet to bank s securities wallet on the market DLT side and an amount of 7 000 euros exploratory cash tokens is transferred from bank s dedicated cash wallet to bank b dedicated cash wallet on DL3S last the burn of exploratory cash tokens allows to bring back the liquidity into the central liquidity pool by the end of day the business day closure is triggered allowing to redeem exploratory cash tokens on DL3S against transfer of liquidity on escrow accounts in the RTGS during the exploratory phase or directly to CLM at the steady state phase concretely by the end of day as DL3S operator I can trigger the business day closure that generates redeem operations in order to empty all dedicated cash wallets this process will be automated at the steady state version I can observe that all balances are set to zero payment banks can also check the update of their balances set to zero by the end of day as a result of the business day closure 3000 euros are redeemed from bank s dedicated cash wallet to the transit wallet and 7 000 euros are redeemed from bank b dedicated cash wallet to the transit wallet as well same transfers are performed on T2 side from NCB1 account to bank s account and from NCB2 account to bank b account but any further information please refer to your contact for the exploratory work at your national central bank or at the ECB or at the bank de France thank you Victoria will you go through the through some some questions and provide some answers if there's some you're a mute hold on you're a mute picture and hold on yes no no it's fine sorry for that yes I'm saying I try to catch the questions as they as they come on the on the screen so do you think that the cash tokens on dia 3 subject to the markets and crypto assets so I managed to catch this one so actually these these cash tokens that we use here as as as was explained are exportery cash tokens so as such they are not a subject neither to these crypto assets regulation nor as a as a legal as legal money so so far so they are just used as exportery ones and using the the funding process that was described to be the with the escrow accounts so I managed to catch this one and try to catch another one so can you clarify how the HTLC leg is triggered so we tried here to to be as as high level as possible and as I mentioned you will have the details of that in in our service description attached to the to the caller for expression of interest but the principle is the exchange of messages so actually three messages through the HTLC process between the two dlt's and in these exchanges the the this protocol allows to to secure the the the security side when then exchanging the the ash and then to secure the the the cash side and then to deliver the cash and to ensure the delivery of the security under the given time either or or to to cancel all that so this is the process that is ensuring this atomic settlement as as I described it in a high level way in this in this presentation so again the the full details of this exchange of messages of these three messages are available in our documentation whenever we have to enter into these details with the with us candidates what does the 3s stand for so this is an easy one so it's a distributed ledger securities settlement system as I mentioned out of the experiments we we've performed we've identified these three models and so it's it's a wider model than the one we used for for this interoperability solution so that's the rationale behind this this acronym can commercial banks run a node on on the atria so I mentioned that quite quickly indeed yes for the management of this sub wallet of their of their clients so indeed that this is a possible so do I have other questions so can gsdc older bank have many dedicated cash wallets indeed yes so this is this is a fully possible if they wanted to do so it seems that we have a lot of questions I try to manage them as quickly as possible but but now we have the does a scroll mean money must be prevented so indeed so the the scroll counts allows to to put the money at the the start of day as was demonstrated and so this money backs the the the ECTs that are used in the in the cash DLT and at the end of the end of the day you bring back these ECTs and and the money on the RTS or are brought back at the right level to the by the central bank to the to the right participants


There's 66,000 households that are in this district. We're looking at about 95% destroyed. On an average day before the earthquake, it takes about three hours to get from Kathmandu to Sindupolchuk. It took us three hours and 20 minutes. That's because there were no massive trucks, no massive convoys that were clogging up the roads, which are very common that I see during relief efforts. People are flying into the airport and there's no more delays. People are getting in and they're getting out. On one hand, it's nice not to be delayed, but why aren't there delays? Where is the incoming traffic? Where is the incoming humanitarian commodities? These are people that are six weeks away from a monsoon and they're three months away from winter. And we need to start that preparation. We need to get everything going because if we miss this window of opportunity, it's not gonna be a humanitarian crisis. It's gonna be a migration crisis. Because if they don't have shelter and they don't have basic services, they can't stay where they are.


I thought it was the internet would go on, the beauty of Instagram, the beauty of YouTube is authenticity and realness and all this happening is more frauds, more lies and more smoking mirrors. I'm not one to start drama, I'm not one to talk mess, I'm not one to lead the negativity but to me it's actually pointing out wrong doings rather than I'm not trying to gossip. Or the lack of integrity in the fitness industry has kind of been known but from the biggest in the game you know the liver kings, Dwayne The Rock Johnson, the hypocrisy of trying to be this good guy, potentially running for president, kissing babies, shaking hands, hardest worker in the room, trying to make as much money as you can based off of lies is literally to me it's slimy as you get. I understand the steroids are a touchy topic for a lot of people, I understand that they're illegal, that they're still very taboo in our age and our day and even someone, I've never done them but I've been around them for a very long time, I don't know all about them and look I'm not perfect, I've never claimed to be perfect, all I've claimed to do is be me to lead with my heart, to lead with my morals, to only provide content, information and make money based on things that I truly think are good, you know whether it be my training programs, my gym, my apparel, I try to make it the best it is and only sell it as it is, I don't sell it to be something it is not and I don't sell me to be something I am not and to me that is obviously the definition of integrity, I'm not going to sell you guys a beat up Honda, no offense to my Honda fans and tell you it's a Ferrari, right, so what message are we trying to send and what message is it to our culture when the people that have the biggest following influence most views, most talked about are arguably the biggest snake oil salesmen in the game, what does it say about us, what does it say about them, I mean the steroid thing is easy, you know, you can say simple things, you cannot answer the question, cannot bring up the topic, you can simply say it's a part of the game, you can say I compete here, this is untested, it doesn't have to be as complicated when you just come out and flat out lie is when I have an issue and that goes for any topic that goes for selling supplements and the type of supplements you sell, the point is that there's a lot of young people and not young people, I ain't that young and we're all highly fragile creatures, you know, you want to act all tough and all that, we all got emotions and we all have self-esteem and we're all impacted by what we see and hear on the internet, so now you get a 300 pound 5% body fat video game character, you know me never used steroids, man I'm on tiktok, I just do a joke, it doesn't affect me as bad as it affects many people and that's my issue right, we got young people, we have people struggling with their journeys in the fitness game, so we have some people that aren't as educated in the fitness nutrition game that are trying to learn and they're trying to aspire to be healthy, to look better, to feel better and that's where all these issues become more serious to me, I can joke about it all the time, again like I did on tiktok, people tell me the way in the rock johnson is it has legendary work ethic, what the hell does legendary work ethic even mean and how can you tell me you know he has that, because he goes on Instagram once a week and tells you he works hard, now all of a sudden he's got legendary work ethic and that's not to negate or take away from anything the guys have accomplished, he's obviously has worked hard and been set into these opportunities, had a little bit of luck and climbed his way to the top of the Hollywood or wherever the hell he is, other people said I'm jealous, bro I can go find and get steroids, you don't think I can go and find and take steroids, it ain't that hard, there's no jealousy there, these are decisions I've made and they're things that I've lived with based on my morals, is it always easy, nah, if I'm more jacked, if I'm strong, if I'm shredded and shirtless all the time, my fitness content will do better, but that's not who I am so that's not what I'm gonna do, I just think that people get so lost in this internet stuff and trust me my whole life's on the internet, I get it, because so lost in this internet shit that because the rock told you he works hard and hashtags hardest worker in the room that now his work ethic is legendary what does that mean and why are we bowing down to these guys acting like they're gods, they're humans and in my opinion they're humans that lack integrity with their internet content, I can't speak on them day to day, I can't speak on them personally, I've never met these folks, but when I hear clips, C-Clips or C-Posts from Lever King, LaRoc Johnson, when they're blatantly lying to then turn around and monetize a product to sell to the masses, that's literally the definition of slimy and lack of integrity to me, now I'm gonna let that negativity float, that's all I got sometimes I got to get off my chest, it frustrates the living hell out of me when there's so many great content creators, so many great businessmen that often lead with their hearts and aren't as successful and that's frustrating, sure me but also tons of my friends, it sucks that these lies and these drama and the gossip and the click bait, that is what allows you to succeed in this era of content, in this era of business, in this era of society and culture, you know they say you vote with your dollars, they say you know support your friends and I truly believe in those things, I'm gonna try to continue to lead with my best foot, with my integrity, with my own moral code and again I can't judge another man, another woman's moral code, right, we all got to build our own code of ethics, but those are some things that I can't get away from, I'll open any app and I scroll around and it's just bullshit in my face, so I'm gonna go back to my little home of lifting weights and designing clothes, trying to help you all on your fitness journey, trying to design clothes that fix issues that I personally have with style and functional gym gear and I'll be in my corner when y'all need me man, we over me, be a part of something big in yourself man, Salamite, I'm out.
