When we started The Dollar Vigilante in 2010, it was a very different world.
The word “libertarianism” was just becoming known for the first time due to the efforts of a guy named Ron Paul and his rEVOLution. Anarcho-capitalism was still essentially unknown by most. We believed that taxation was theft but trying to find more than a few dozen other people who felt the same was not happening. Many people still hadn’t woken up to 9/11 being an inside job.
And, not even we knew about bitcoin back then… only hearing about it in 2011 when it was at $3 and immediately jumping on the bandwagon as perhaps its loudest promoter.
So, what a nice surprise it is to see how quickly things are changing.
The hashtag #TaxationIsTheft caught fire in the last year.
And then this man made sure “Taxation Is Theft” was front and center… or behind home plate, at a Major League Baseball game.
Back in 2014, this man grabbed the microphone during the Super Bowl post-game press conference and said that 9/11 was an inside job.
And now, the latest hero was today, during Janet Yellen’s testimony in front of CONgress.
It was just a small gesture. A sign saying “Buy Bitcoin” on mainstream television right behind Ol’ Yellen, for just a second before the cameraman quickly pulled away.
And, the cool thing about bitcoin is, that if you can get your QR code on the sign, you can receive immediate payment from people across the world. And, this man has already started to receive bitcoin donations which will likely prompt more people to do the same in the future!
So, while the communist style, central planning Federal Reserve was answering questions by the fascist CONgress (that’s why there are 2 fasces in Congress), the free market was at work right behind Comrade Yellen, pointing out the free market, anarcho-capitalist money bitcoin can be transferred without anyone’s permission, without anyone managing it and without CONgress able to question it.
In that sense, this man holding up the “Buy Bitcoin” sign today made it ever so poignant that CONgress and the Federal Reserve are ridiculous antiquities from a heinous, tyrannical time.
He was even doing it just as Yellen was trying to fight against the Federal Reserve being audited. You know who audits bitcoin? The blockchain. No Soviet-style central planning agency need be involved in money.
The Federal Reserve and Congress are obsolete.
Our grandchildren will one day ask us why we traded pieces of paper with dead criminals printed on them printed up by a communist style planning agency at will and overseen by a violent group of people who get paid with extorted money in a system that funded more than a century of total war.
“Why did you do that?” they’ll ask.
And, we’ll reply, “Bitcoin hadn’t been invented yet, darling.”
But but..
Nice touch 👏
Its really sad, the stuttering old fool, trying to string a proper sentence together and make it look like she actually means it. Yellen along with the 'Transparent' 'Federal' reserve are going the way of the Dodo. #goodRiddance
Yes! Same thoughts.
LOL
hahahhahahaha! Thanks a lot @bits4bots
LOL
Hah! I'm in love! Saw the photo this morning on the news and wondered if any of us would do this. Fantastic!

This young sign guy is a true HERO. I'm going to send him my hard earned $10 as a tip to this awesome man. I admire at his passion, and braveness to do what he did.
He made this day well noted in the history of humans.
Die FED die !
He has already received over $11,000 worth of Bitcoin in donations: https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@penguinpablo/the-bitcoin-sign-guy-has-already-received-over-usd11-000-worth-of-bitcoin-in-donations
Hey great post, ha! i cried laughing when I saw this on the bbc news app.
Haha! Excellent!
Hahaha well done by this guy, he's a hero and a patriot.
Lol that's funny!
Dude is a major boss for doing that LOL
Mad respect!
Thug Life baby!
It's so ironic in such an alternative truth to say that the Federal Reserve is a trans parent organization it is the least trans parent organization in existence that I know of. Thank you for all of your videos in your post I've been following your videos often on since I think about 2011 or 12. Great to see you here on the platform that is the future just like getting it on thick Coin Way ahead of the curve here we are on a platform designing and leading the way for the future. Keep on keeping on and keep it coming @dollarvigalante
Well, it's one thing to make decisions behind closed doors and then publish info after the fact and another thing to actually be transparent.
I have found with most liars and narcissists they are always telling you what they are lying about straight to your face. You just have to know how to translate the lie, and most of the time it is very simple.
Woow amazing videos

That dude deserves more than just 1 Bitcoin I'm sure he will be receiving plenty 👏
I think I peed a little.
Jeff is really great in writing & putting thoughts together.
Live from Capitol Hill.
Screw government, acquire cryptocurrency.
Hey @dollarvigilante
I have around 10k$ worth of cash ready to purchase coins now that everything is going down. But I keep seeing ETH around 180-190 and other coins are low too.
My question is, do you think now is the bottom, or that we will see much lower prices as we approach the 1st of Aug?
Coz i keep thinking all the time that maybe now is the lowest you know :)
Thank you!
hahahaha....that's was a good try.... :)
Excellent post. It took me a long long time to accept Bitcoin because I was a gold and silver guy. Now, I understand and love it and realize that this is changing the face of society faster than we realize.
Fucking awesome article that more people should read! Keep doing your thing dollarvigilante!
please upvote, reply, resteem and follow , thank you, you're awesome!
If Yellen says to buy bitcoin, then we should buy bitcoin. It's that simple. And the guy holding the buy steem sign in the background is a nice touch.
Lmao! Awesome!
Hello Jeff, thanks for the post.
Libertarianism is growing day by day thanks to man such as yourself.
Taxation is theft, Citizens need to look up the meaning of the word. In servitude/ which means Slave.
Bitcoin and Litecoin and Ethereaum along with others will same the world.
Regulation will Control Crypto's like Fiat.
ha ha lol!!!!!!!!!!1
Yeah, these people have got some answering to do sometime in the future. And now we have the blockchains to document it all. Oh man, they got it coming.
Wow, this post made me giddy, and that doesn't happen often! Thank you for putting it together!
These examples show that "You can't stop the signal" even from beneath a giant global state.
Mr. Universe = Satoshi?
Could be, perhaps his dying action was uploading bitcoin into the 'verse and that's why he hasn't been heard from since...
nuff said :)
Deadset legend
Whoo the tides are turning fast.
Before
you became a whistleblower, had your five seconds of fame and then disappeared into darkness.
Now
You can become a whistleblower and get paid.
Soon we will see the rise of the professional whistleblower.
But for sure we will also not see too many live shows any more...
just go on steemit!
^o^
This is so legendary, I can't find the right words... awesome to see something like this. Janet Yellen as the mouthpiece for the Fed Reserve.. stating "The Federal Reserve is one of the most transparent central banks..." BITCH please... GTFO of here with that bullshit. Her day will come...
i love it and it is all true
Taxation is theft!
The bitcoin boom begins!
Me thinks we need more action like the guy holding up the Bitcoin sign ... everyone go do it in public and on camera! I would sponsor that! #awesome
