In ancient times, Shiva was also a male form who accepted poison for the upliftment and protection of the society and became Neelkanth. With the passage of time, Ram also a male form who gave guidelines of dignity to the society and taught the right path of living. With time, Krishna also incarnated as a male form who received both love and hatred from almost every aspect of the society, but still continued on the path of his duty and showed the way of life to the coming ages. There are many such men around you, they could be your father, brother, husband or any other relative of yours who are quietly fulfilling their responsibilities throughout the day. They are just doing their work without seeing good or bad and are fulfilling their duty with full devotion towards their family and society. This relationship can also be between a mother and a son, where a mother will say to her son, "You run around for everyone all day, now your mother will walk a few steps in your respect." But it is also an ignorance of the society that we are not expressing our sympathies towards these men like Shiva, Ram or Krishna. Sometimes we are forgetting to see that they also have feelings and society should respond to those feelings in a grateful manner. Friends, this small effort of mine “Walk for Men” is a response which I want to dedicate to all those hardworking men of the society, whose emotions remain suppressed while fulfilling the needs of their families and their society. I want us to express our feelings openly towards those men and through this event “Walk for Men”, we should tell those men that they are an inspiration for all of us. Our appeal is to all those women who are ready to take a few steps and express their feelings out of respect for their family and any man living nearby, We hope that more and more women will join this revolution. “Walk for Men” is not just an event but the first phase of a global movement which is going to start from Kota city in India, our effort is to make this movement reach more than 5 crore people on the global platform. Right now, this is just a first step which will become a long journey with the support of all of you. Let us come together and tell all those hardworking men that those who are either soldiers being deployed on the border, or sometimes making the country proud by becoming players, they are not alone. Every Indian like me and you hold his hand and we salute his every deed. Come, let's take a few steps together for those for whom duty never stops.

Respected Members of Parliament, distinguished leaders, and fellow citizens of India, I stand before you with humility and a deep sense of responsibility as a candidate for the office of the Vice-President of our great republic. India’s democracy was built on the supreme sacrifices of our freedom fighters and nurtured for decades by their vision. Today, as that democratic space shrinks and citizens’ rights come under strain, it is our duty to defend the soul of our democratic republic. My candidature is not at all a personal aspiration but a collective effort to protect and strengthen our democratic fabric. Our first Vice-President reminded us, “Democracy is not merely a form of government; it is essentially an attitude of respect and reverence towards our fellow men.” It is these words that inspire my resolve to carry forward a noble tradition. I bring decades of experience in public service. I understand both the spirit and functioning of our democracy. This experience equips me to serve as an impartial and dignified custodian of parliamentary traditions. Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru once said, “The strongest bond of unity is the common affection that we hold for our country.” This bond has guided me in every stage of my journey and continues to motivate me to serve as an impartial custodian of our democracy. The Vice-President, as Chairperson of the Rajya Sabha, must embody this balance, wisdom, and neutrality—principles I have always upheld by giving respect to every voice, across party lines. If elected, I will strive to make the Rajya Sabha a true forum of reasoned debate and constructive dialogue. Following the example set by our first Vice-President, Dr. Sarvapalli Radhakrishnan, I pledge to ensure that it remains a chamber of thoughtful deliberation in the national interest instead of avoidable discord. Democracy thrives on cooperation, not confrontation, and my strength lies in listening, mediating, and building consensus. In my vision, the Rajya Sabha must be a chamber where national interests are upheld above partisan concerns. As Babasaheb said, “Democracy is essentially a mode of associated living, of conjoint communicated experience.” And I take inspiration from this vision that democracy must be a shared, collective journey. I have witnessed first-hand the challenges India faces—economic reforms, social justice, climate change, and ensuring opportunities for our youth. The Vice-President’s office provides a platform to guide discussions on these issues with dignity and decorum, steering the Upper House toward policies that truly benefit citizens of this great nation, India, that is, Bharat. By ensuring fairness, I hope to elevate the quality of our lawmaking. Pandit ji, in his historic “Tryst with Destiny” speech, envisioned a nation where “freedom and opportunity” would reach every Indian. As Chair of the Rajya Sabha, I will work to align our debates with that dream. A key priority will be to keep parliamentary practices transparent, inclusive, and participatory so that disruptions don’t overshadow deliberations. Our first Vice-President warned that disorderly conduct erodes public faith. Taking his caution to heart, I will strive to restore an environment where disagreement is expressed with respect and dignity. It should always be reciprocal. I also see the Rajya Sabha as a body that represents the long-term interests of the nation, free from immediate political compulsions. It reflects the idea of federalism and is known as the Council of States. As its Chair, I will encourage detailed discussions on reforms in education, healthcare, digital governance, and environmental sustainability. Dr. Ambedkar often reminded us that political democracy must be matched by social and economic democracy. It is this holistic approach that I wish to strengthen in our parliamentary functioning. Another area where I intend to contribute is in strengthening parliamentary committees. Committees are the backbone of effective lawmaking, and their reports often shape the final outcome of legislation. I will ensure that these committees, referred to by Pandit ji as “the workshops of Parliament”, function with seriousness, independence, and a spirit of consensus-building. I will ensure that these committees do not become shops but function away from the glare of immediate political pressures. India’s parliamentary democracy has stood as a beacon to the world, but it demands continuous nurturing. I will strive to preserve its sanctity by upholding constitutional conventions and morality, ensuring neutrality in proceedings, and protecting the dignity of every member of the House, irrespective of their party affiliations. My role will be to guard the sanctity of the proceedings and not just interpret the rules of procedure. After all, democracy means dialogue, discussion and dissent. Babasaheb’s warning during the Constituent Assembly rings true: “Democracy in India is only a top-dressing on an Indian soil which is essentially undemocratic.” This especially resonates after our experience with the regime that has favoured a few at the cost of crores of citizens of India—Dalits, tribals, backward communities, women, minorities, and youth—who are increasingly being pushed to the margins. It is our duty to prove that democracy in India lives not just in emblematic institutions but in spirit. As Vice-President, I will dedicate myself to preserving the sanctity of our parliamentary system by ensuring absolute neutrality in proceedings and protecting the dignity of each and every member. Honourable Members, I seek your support not for myself, but for the values that define us as a sovereign democratic republic. In this election, there is no party whip, and the ballot is secret. It is not loyalty to any political party, but love for the country that must guide your choice. Each one of you carries the moral responsibility to preserve the conscience, the soul of our beloved nation. By entrusting me with this office, you will be choosing to defend parliamentary traditions, to restore dignity to debate, and to ensure that the Rajya Sabha stands as a true temple of democracy. This is not just a vote to elect your Vice-President—it is a vote for the spirit of India itself. Together, let us strengthen our republic and create a legacy that future generations will be proud to inherit. Now, it is for the people of India to decide. : Opposition parties' vice presidential candidate, former Supreme Court Judge, Shri B. Sudershan Reddy

The Canadian Hindu Volunteers (CHV) strongly and unequivocally condemn the dangerous escalation of Khalistani terrorism rhetoric and Hinduphobic incitement witnessed at the Nagar Kirtans held in Malton and Etobicoke this weekend. The chilling demand that 800,000 Canadian Hindus leave the country is not just hate speech, it is a genocidal call for ethnic cleansing that echoes some of the darkest chapters in global history. These events have made it alarmingly clear that certain Gurdwaras and religious processions are being co-opted by violent Khalistani extremists who exploit Canada’s democratic freedoms to glorify terrorism, incite division, and call for violence against Hindus and democratic states like India. This is not religious freedom, it is terrorism cloaked in sanctity. documents the horrifying scale of Khalistani terrorism in India throughout the 1980s and 1990s, bombings of markets, assassination of moderate Sikhs, Hindus, police officers, and public servants. Thousands were killed. Civilians were gunned down on buses and trains. Entire families were wiped out in the name of a violent, theocratic fantasy. This ideology did not stop at India’s borders. Canada has paid dearly. The 1985 Air India bombing, the deadliest act of aviation terror before 9/11, killed 329 innocent civilians, most of them Canadians. This attack was orchestrated by Khalistani terrorists based in Canada, including Talwinder Singh Parmar, whose portrait is now shamefully paraded in public processions and Gurdwaras, glorified as a martyr. Journalists and political leaders who stood against Khalistani terrorism have been silenced with bullets or threats: •Tara Singh Hayer, a courageous journalist, was assassinated in 1998 after receiving death threats for exposing Khalistani plots. •Ujjal Dosanjh, the former B.C. Premier, was brutally attacked for opposing extremism and defending Canada’s democratic values. •Balraj Deol, Jagdish Grewal, and Deepak Punj have been targeted with threats and intimidation campaigns simply for speaking out against radicalism. •Sikh moderates, police officers, and Hindu shopkeepers in Punjab and Canada alike have faced physical violence, economic boycotts, and harassment from Khalistani terror sympathizers. These are not the actions of “activists.” These are the tactics of radicalized ideologues, many of whom have exploited Canada’s asylum and immigration systems, presenting false claims of persecution to enter the country and build networks that fund, promote, and glorify violence. The calls to expel Hindus are not isolated incidents. They represent a coordinated campaign to push Hinduphobia, terrorism, and anti-India propaganda from the podiums of religious processions under the false flag of “freedom of speech.” If any other group in Canada had called for the mass expulsion of an ethnic or religious community, there would be immediate arrests and investigations. Why the silence now? We urge CSIS Canada RCMP Peel Regional Police Toronto Police Public Safety Canada •Law enforcement to investigate all those responsible for today’s hate-filled processions and bring the perpetrators to justice. •Elected officials at every level to denounce Hinduphobia and Khalistani terrorism unequivocally, without vote-bank politics. •Immigration authorities to re-examine and tighten processes to prevent those affiliated with extremist organizations from abusing Canadian hospitality. •All Gurdwaras and religious institutions to reaffirm their commitment to peace and not allow their premises to be misused for terror glorification. •Canadians of all backgrounds to stand united against any ideology that calls for genocide, violence, or division Let us be clear: This is not a conflict between Sikhs and Hindus. Millions of Sikhs and Hindus live side by side in Canada and across the world in peace, brotherhood, and mutual respect. Khalistani terrorism seeks to destroy that harmony. #Khalistan

Big congratulations to the Philippine community for the significant event that took place yesterday, March 2, 2025!👏👏👏👏 I truly believe that our Pi Network has been blessed by so many dedicated pioneers, merchants, and community leaders—our GCV Ambassadors! Without your sacrifices and commitment, we could not have reached this level. I am especially grateful to our Global GCV CT Executive Director and committee chair, Ms. Lumari, the Head of GCV Ambassadors, along with all the outstanding Philippine GCV warriors. Your extraordinary contribution of 1,429,652 GCV record on blockchain by December 18, 2024, played a critical role in advancing the GCV Movement! We can see these impressive beautiful numbers $314,159 everywhere, and this achievement has been acknowledged by our CT on the GitHub source code as part of the digital currency value and the stablecoin market price. We are now on the path to obtaining a U.S. Cryptocurrency Industry license from the SEC, and we are working hard toward that goal. I am truly impressed by the positive energy and unity of the Philippine community! You are a great example of our Global GCV community. The following is my speech on this wonderful dinner party conference! ------------- Dear Philippines community leaders, GCV Ambassadors, merchants, and pioneers, It is a profound honor to address you today at the Philippine Grand Global GCV Conference. We gather here as one thousand dedicated pioneers, united in our celebration of the achievements we've made within the Pi Network. I encourage all of you to enjoy the delicious food and take this opportunity to motivate and appreciate one another. The Philippine community exemplifies the spirit of global unity, collaboration, and growth. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to Ms. Lumari for her gracious invitation, as well as to all the diligent organizers who have made this event possible. This conference stands as a tribute to our collective growth, unity, collaboration, and progress. I would also like to acknowledge our esteemed Global GCV Ambassadors: Ms. Nonny Padja, Mr. Joho, Mr. Patrick Chao, Mr. Jason Wong, and Spain GCV Ambassador Mr. Kerun LI and Africa GCV Ambassador Mr. Oliver NDatimana, who have generously offered their time to share their insights and support our mission for today's conference. The progress of the GCV movement in the Philippines has been truly commendable, reflecting the remarkable dedication and hard work that has resulted in the creation of over 1.5 million GCV data points. This accomplishment is a testament to your unity, vision, and unwavering commitment. Ms. Lumari’s perseverance and leadership have been instrumental in our success. Her emphasis on education and the development of the GCV ecosystem, coupled with her proactive mindset, serves as an inspiring model for the entire global community. I am also immensely grateful to Mr. Marlon Domantay, our distinguished Education GCV Ambassador; Mr. Anthony Nierra, our distinguished Ecosystem GCV Ambassador; and distinguished Ms. Lerma Ablan, our Merchant Coordinator Ambassador, along with all our outstanding Philippine GCV Ambassadors, leaders, and merchants for their hard work and invaluable contributions. Strong and effective leadership is essential for the success of any initiative, particularly within the Pi Network social practice. We have observed significant advancements in our ecosystem development and educational efforts, which are attributable to the exemplary leadership demonstrated by all our GCV Ambassadors. Our Open Network has passed on February 20th, 2025, we await the official announcement of Pi's value but we didn't see it. Currently, we see Pi priced at a few dollars in the exchange market. Many pioneers may have lost trust in CT and GCV due to misunderstandings about the Pi Network and our relationship to it. A clear understanding of Pi and Dr. Nicolas's vision will help us align our goals and behavior towards collective success. Recognizing the importance of unity will emphasize the key role of collaboration. We are in the first stage of OM, still tasked with many objectives yet to be completed. We need all pioneers to collaborate. After two and a half years, we've successfully created GCV for the blockchain ecosystem, coded on GitHub. Following the launch of the Open Network, with Pi now listed on the exchange market and regulated by the US SEC, it is crucial for pioneers to work together to stabilize Pi's price as a stable coin on exchange market. It's essential to ensure all lower-priced Pi is purchased by us to unify its market price to GCV. CT's goal is for Pi to function as a digital currency, but now we have no choice but to be listed on exchange market as a coin, so we must support buying and refrain from selling during this critical phase. WE need to make the Pi price lifted to GCV from our community and attract outside investors. Now we enter a pivotal moment: we must assist the exchange market in reaching GCV levels as soon as possible. We urge pioneers to refrain from selling below GCV and to prioritize buying Pi on verified exchanges. If we pull together, we can achieve GCV very fast. CT has outlined two essential functions for Pi: one as a stable coin in the exchange market and the other as a valued currency. Both GCV value and price are encoded on Gibthub and we must build strong confidence in this. Dear Philippine community leaders, merchants, and pioneers, let’s continue our collaboration with CT to ensure that the Pi Network is fully decentralized, implementing the GCV source code effectively. Through our combined efforts, we can establish Pi as a super-sovereign currency in the long term, forging a new era of cryptocurrency and prosperity for all. I wish today’s conference tremendous success and thank you for your tireless dedication and selfless contributions. Doris Yin🪷🪷🪷 Founder, Global GCV Movement March 2nd, 2025

**Let's Unite and Work Together for Successful OM!** Happy Sunday, dear global pioneers! How are you doing? I am here again to have video with you. I count the day to OM. How about you? 😊 I just recorded an informative 8-minute video addressing several important matters concerning our community and the future of the Pi Network and OM. The following is my speech summary. 1. First, I want to discuss our upcoming OM event date, which I believe will take place on Pi Day, celebrating the sixth birthday of the Pi Network. This date is particularly significant due to the symbolism of the numbers 314, derived from Pi, and GCV, which corresponds to a value of $314,159. Both of these numbers carry positive energy that I am confident will lead to prosperity and success for all of us involved in this project. 2.Regarding the GitHub code for Pi as stablecoin, it’s essential to clarify that the Pi value of $314.159 is not an arbitrary figure chosen by Mr. Kasasih; it is a value established through our blockchain records. This figure reflects the collective efforts of the global GCV community, which includes merchants, pioneers, community leaders, and GCV ambassadors who have dedicated over two years of hard work to compile an astounding 5 million data entries for GCV. 3. It is not important whether Mr. Kasasih is a member of the CT because the GCV exists as a concrete record on the blockchain. Regardless of who writes the code, the GCV value remains steadfast at $314.159. I also want to reiterate that I indicated GCV had emerged victorious during last year’s Pi2day celebration. Mr. Kasasih's coding skills are highly professional and valuable, and it’s quite likely that the CT will leverage this expertise in future developments. Who knows? 4.Furthermore, it is essential to emphasize that I don't have affiliation with the CT . The Pi value GCV lies in its origin from the pioneers rather than the Core Team. Dr. Nicolas has authorized the pioneers as the true creators of the Pi value, making it unnecessary to seek approval from the CT. When the CT decides to move forward to OM, it represents they satisfy with our GCV vision and mission are align with white paper vision and mission. This important progress will likely bring joy and pride to the pioneers, as it highlights our collective achievements. 5. As we look ahead, I believe we only have 54 days remaining before significant changes occur. I urge all anti-GCV pioneers to take a moment to reflect on the implications of this project. GCV will provide you with financial freedom, so it is not smart to oppose such an opportunity. And if pioneers involve in blackmarket will lose all account Pi. To maintain our focus on positive progress, we have made the decision to block and unfollow all individuals who express anti-GCV emotion. Our commitment is to concentrate on our shared objectives for Pi Network success and disregard negative remarks. 6. So, what should pioneers do during the last 54 days? First and foremost, I encourage everyone to focus on the Pioneers Handbook. Joining the International Telegram GCV Group is also vital, as it provides access to Pioneers Handbook available in 30 different languages. Engaging with this resource will help alleviate any uncertainties and anxieties you may have and foster a sense of happiness and relaxation. Remember, excessive worry can adversely affect your health. All worries and doubts will be totally go away after you carefully read five times. 7.Additionally, I encourage all pioneers to actively share information and articles related to GCV activities to help others stay informed and catch up. If you operate a business, please consider joining the GCV movement by accepting partial Pi payments at GCV, as this will promote wider participation within our ecosystem. 8. As we approach the OM launch, which is only 54 days away, it is crucial that we focus on building a robust ecosystem rather than fixating solely on a select few pioneers acquiring high-value commodities through full Pi payments. Our priority should be to expand GCV data and attract a wide range of industries to participate in the Pi Network at GCV. Notably, even a 10% Pi payment can generate one GCV data entry, while full Pi payments may discourage potential merchants from joining the Pi Network. By broadening more merchants, we can lay a solid foundation for our ecosystem, ensuring that GCV remains stable and reliable. This strategy will also facilitate quicker KYC and migration processes for all pioneers following the OM, as we will have established an extensive and trustworthy ecosystem. After the OM, we will successfully implement full Pi payments, allowing all pioneers to benefit from using full Pi for a wide array of products and services. Therefore, we should maintain a long-term vision. I sincerely hope all pioneers enjoy your Sunday, and I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for your unwavering support of our collective journey. Together, we can achieve great things! 🙏🙏🙏 Doris Yin 🪷🪷🪷 Jan.19th, 2025

👩‍👩‍👧‍👦👩‍👩‍👧‍👦👩‍👩‍👧‍👦PI NETWORK NEWS:🌍 Global GCV Ambassadors, Let’s Reflect and Reignite Our Purpose! 🔥 On May 31, 2025, Ms. Lumari delivered a powerful and heartfelt message to all Head Ambassadors and Education Ambassadors around the world. Her words are a wake-up call — a reminder that this movement only grows stronger through our action, unity, and unwavering commitment. As we enter a new month, let us take her message to heart. Let us stand together, share the Buy Back Campaign, and guide pioneers with courage and leadership. 💬 Below is the full speech from Ms. Lumari — please read, reflect, and take action. Together, we are the driving force behind the future of Pi. Together, we protect the value we believe in. 💪⚡ --------------------- "Global GCV Ambassadors Meeting May 31, 2025 Hello everyone — to all our amazing Head Ambassadors, Education Ambassadors, and most especially to our beloved Ms. Doris Yin. Your dedication and passion are what keep this movement alive and growing every day. I’m truly grateful to be with you all today as we gather once again to push forward with purpose and heart. This meeting is a follow-up to our last gathering, but today feels even more urgent — because we need to come together now more than ever. And I’ll be honest: I’ve noticed that only a few are really paying attention to our calls and responsibilities. So here’s a tough but important question: Do we really want to win? If your answer is yes, then it’s time to show it — not just with words, but with action. Today is May 31 — the last day of the month. Tomorrow is June — a fresh start, a new opportunity to realign with our mission. That’s why we are urging everyone to fully commit to the Buy Back Campaign. We need to make reposting the Buy Back Campaign a habit. Right now, only a few are consistently sharing it. Our campaign should be everywhere — loud and proud. We’ll keep monitoring reposting activity. Just two weeks ago, we reached 70% reposting — but now we’re back down to 20%. Reposting is easy. It only takes a few seconds. So please, let’s do it — consistently. It shows we are proud ambassadors of this movement. To all Head Ambassadors and Education Ambassadors: You each play critical roles. Head Ambassadors — you are the drivers of the Buy Back Campaign. - Your leadership is what makes this movement come alive in your countries. You are responsible for: Coordination, setting national goals, tracking progress, ensuring full engagement and maintaining consistent communication. You are also tasked with recording and reporting Pi purchases in your country. These reports come directly to me and are crucial to measuring our collective impact. Education Ambassadors — you are the heart of understanding. - Your mission is not just to share information — but to inspire and move people. - Host regular training sessions. - Make sure every pioneer understands why buying Pi matters. - It’s not enough for them to just hear the message — they need to feel it, to know that their participation matters deeply. Walk them through the Buy Back process if needed. Make it simple. Even better — lead by example. When they see you doing it, they’ll feel empowered to do the same. This is how we multiply efforts — and scale our impact. Education is not just teaching — it’s mobilizing. So why do we have a Buy Back Campaign? Because we must buy back Pi from the exchanges — to protect the value we’ve built with our own hands and hearts. When pioneers buy even just 10 or 20 Pi, we’re pulling it away from speculators — and bringing it back into the hands of our committed community. That act: - Strengthens our economy - Stabilizes Pi’s value and - Shows the world our unity. Here’s the strategic insight: When Pi on exchanges runs out, launching Open Mainnet becomes much easier. That’s our goal. To act now, not later. Why do we believe we can empty the exchanges? Because the numbers are on our side. - About 14 million pioneers have migrated their Pi. - 84% — more than 11 million people — own less than 10 Pi. They are the silent majority. If even a small portion buys back just 10 or 20 Pi, it will trigger a transformation we can’t stop. What’s missing? - Direction. - Purpose. - Courage. If every pioneer chips in, we make history. Let’s break it down: - 1 million pioneers buying back 20 Pi = 20 million Pi back in the ecosystem - 5 million = 100 million Pi - 11 million = enough to drain the liquidity and protect our future Think about this: Two Cups of Coffee. That’s all it takes to buy back 10 Pi today on a CEX. Do you drink coffee every day? Then you can buy back Pi. So ask yourself: What do you want more — your daily caffeine, or economic freedom? And what if all 70 million pioneers acted?If each one held or recovered just 20 Pi — that’s 1.4 billion Pi back in pioneer hands. That’s more than enough to protect our whole ecosystem — and give us the power to decide our future. Starting June 7, 2025 — All Head Ambassadors must begin submitting regular reports on Pi purchases made in your country. These reports are vital to the success of the Buy Back Campaign. Also, please post these Pi purchases on X (formerly Twitter). Why? Because people imitate what they see. When they see others buying Pi — they’re more likely to do it themselves. That’s why visibility matters. That’s why social proof is powerful. Let’s show the strength of our movement. Let’s inspire trust and action through consistency. Together, we rise. Thank you.

After regrouping with our investors and the team, I’ve made the difficult decision to wind down Hike completely. Our US business, launched just nine months ago, is off to a strong start. But scaling globally would require a full recap, a reset that is not the best use of capital or time. The Big Question → We could raise the capital, but the real question is: is it worth it? Is this a climb worth pivoting for? For the first time in 13 years, my answer is no. Not for me, not for my team, and not for our investors. Why? 1. RMG was never the destination. It was a way to test unit economics and traction in India while working toward a bigger vision. In hindsight, starting in India locked us into the model and regulatory headwinds, turning a temporary path into a more permanent one. 2. The Gaming Nation vision is real, but we may be too early. The world will eventually move toward a Nation-type model in gaming and Web3 - Company 2.0. But crypto regulation is still developing globally, and we don’t want to repeat India, where we hoped for clarity that never came. 3. And most importantly, if doing a full reset, is this where I’d put my own capital and energy today? For the first time, the answer is no. The world has changed in the last decade - and so have I. There are more important problems to solve and bigger opportunities to deploy brilliant talent and capital. Looking Back & Lessons The last 13 years have been immense. Hike Messenger reached 40M MAUs and became the 35th most loved consumer brand in India at its peak. With Rush, we built a brand new kind of Casual PvP gaming platform and scaled it to 10M users and $500M+ in gross revenue in just 4 years. Our execution was super, but we could never quite make it stick. There are clear lessons to carry forward, especially on market selection: 1. Be careful with winner-take-all markets. To win, you need to go global. 2. Don’t build for today’s tech constraints. Build on the spring/summer of new technologies. 3. Regulatory clarity matters. Risk is fine; uncertainty is not. More importantly momentum is everything. And build what your heart and mind are deeply excited about. It’s the conviction that carries you through. This is both a disappointment and a hard outcome. But I choose to look on the bright side: the learnings are invaluable, and my conviction for what’s next is even stronger. To everyone who has been part of this journey - our users, our team, our investors, and our community - thank you. As a CEO, you’re only as strong as your team, and I want to give a special shout-out to mine - an incredible group of people who gave this everything. Hike This chapter ends, but the climb continues. Looking Forward I’ve always thrived at building at the forefront of technology. Over the last decade, in the little time I had to explore outside of Hike, I kept returning to the same three frontiers. And now, they feel like the great canvases for decades to come → 1. AI → For the first time, technology has both intelligence and memory. Imagine products that don’t just serve us functionally but truly know us - systems that adapt, grow, and partner with us. As a UX-first builder, this is the most exciting time to be building software. 2. Breakthroughs in Energy → Human progress has always been bound by energy. The world’s demand for energy is rising faster than ever. Breakthrough approaches, especially in physics are needed to power the future. The last century gave us mastery of fine matters and electricity, the next will move deeper, at the intersection of science and spirituality - into what yogis call divine magnetism and physicists call the quantum world or electromagnetism. From there will come technologies that today feel impossible to imagine. 3. Mastery of the Self → As AI takes on more of our work, a deeper question will rise: what now defines us? When productivity is no longer the measure of worth, humanity will turn inward. Man’s evolution will move from the intellect to intuitive attunement - a deeper connection with ourselves and the divine (which we’ll realise are one and the same). The tools, spaces, and guides that help us explore this inner world will be as transformative as any innovation in the outer one - unlocking the next level of humanity’s potential. If you put these together, a picture emerges: → the cost of intelligence trending to zero → the cost of energy trending to zero → and the cost of willpower falling lower and lower. Just imagine a future where willpower is infinite, energy is abundant, and intelligence is at our fingertips. This is the future I will help build — and it’s where I’ll be contributing in the decades to come. This new chapter will look very different from the last one 🚀 Video for perspective.

Today feels like watching history settle into its rightful place. The Bhagwan Shri Ram Mandir in Ayodhya now stands complete, crowned with the Dharma Dhwaj. That flag is not just fabric. The rising sun on it reminds us that Prabhu Shri Ram belongs to the royal Suryavansh, a line that upheld truth and duty. The sacred Om at the centre speaks of awareness, devotion and the unbroken connection between the devotee and the divine. The Kovidar tree symbol carries the promise of Ram Rajya, good governance and prosperity as described in our ancient texts. Every symbol on that flag tells the story of a civilisation that refused to forget its ideals. On this day my first instinct is to bow my head to those who carried this struggle on their shoulders. From Advani ji, Modi ji, the sadhus and sadhvis who set out on the Rath Yatra, to countless kar sevaks who slept on railway platforms, walked in the heat, faced lathis and bullets. Many of them never came back. We owe a special salute to those who were shot dead when Mulayam Singh ordered firing on Ram bhakts. Their blood is part of the foundation of this temple. We should also remember who stood on the other side of this story. Lalu Yadav stopped the Rath Yatra. Sonia Gandhi’s party tried in court to argue that Bhagwan Ram was only a myth. Kapil Sibal used every technical trick available to keep the case hanging so that a verdict never came in our lifetime. For years this was the pattern. Delay, mock, insult, block. Yet in one moment it all felt worth it. When Narendra Modi ji was hoisting the Dharma Dhwaj, look closely at his hands. They are trembling slightly, the way any devotee shakes when the heart is overflowing. In that instant he looked less like a Prime Minister and more like a common kar sevak who finally got to see the dream completed. I come from a Sanghi household. We have lived through 1984, 1990, 1992, through the years when talking about Ram Mandir in public invited abuse and threats. My father was a swayamsevak and also an Arya Samaji, deeply committed to Hindutva in the purest sense of service and sacrifice. He gave months and years of his life to Dharma, organising, travelling, working day and night for a vision he was not sure he would see fulfilled. He kept that tapasya going till his last breath. Today I feel he is standing in Ayodhya with all of us. Anyone who grew up in the 90s and early 2000s will remember the conversations at home. We would say in simple words “When BJP comes, all this will change. Just once let BJP form a strong government and Ram Mandir will happen.” It sounded childish to some, but it was the only hope millions held on to. When I started campaigning myself, our discussions were always about Article 370, Ram Mandir and many other issues linked to justice for Hindus. Friends would laugh and taunt me. “Neither will BJP come to power nor will any of this happen,” they would say. As a young volunteer I once gathered the courage to ask Advani ji: “Sir, will we really be able to build the temple, looking at how Congress plays politics?” He replied with total confidence, with the voice of a man who had already seen the future in his mind. “No matter what happens, the temple will be built, and it will be built at that very spot.” Today those words echo in Ayodhya. We are fortunate to live in the time of Narendra Modi as Prime Minister, Amit Shah as Home Minister and Yogi Adityanath ji in Uttar Pradesh. Along with the tireless efforts of countless unnamed workers, they turned a five hundred year old wound into a centre of pride. Until 2014 it felt like the story would never move forward. There were only court dates, politics, editorials and insults for believers. Today the chapter has finally turned. The birthplace of Shri Ram once again has a grand mandir, and above it the Dharma Dhwaj that announces to the world that Sanatan faith is alive, awake and standing tall. This is not only about architecture. It is about self respect. It is about telling every kar sevak who walked in the dust of Ayodhya, every swayamsevak who gave their youth, every father and mother who whispered “Mandir wahin banega” to their children, that their trust was not misplaced. I feel grateful to be alive to see this day. Grateful to my father’s generation for keeping the flame burning. Grateful to this nation for never letting the memory of Shri Ram’s birthplace fade. Today, the flag on the shikhara carries the stories of five centuries of struggle and the promise of a new era of confidence. This story needs to be told again and again so that our current generation knows that none of this came easily or on a platter. Jai Shri Ram #Ayodhya Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Kshetra

Speech for Thailand GCV Industry Alliance Conference September 14, 2025 – Vayupak Grand Ballroom, Bangkok Dear Thailand GCV Ambassadors, esteemed merchants, and dedicated pioneers, It is an absolute honor to be here today at the Merchant Alliance Thailand Conference. Thank you all for welcoming me. It is a tremendous privilege to stand before such passionate leaders, merchants, and ambassadors who are shaping the future of the GCV movement in Thailand. Since Ms. Rung Arun Maneechot began her journey as Head GCV Ambassador on April 10, we have witnessed truly remarkable milestones. From achieving millions in GCV data to establishing ambassadors across 74 regions, your efforts have laid a strong foundation for the growth of GCV in Thailand. I want to sincerely commend every one of you ambassadors, merchants, and pioneers for your dedication, seriousness, and commitment. The results we see today are a direct reflection of your hard work, discipline, and willingness to take action. You have proven that we are not just building an idea; we are creating a living, thriving ecosystem. Acknowledging Our Leadership Team Let me recognize our outstanding leadership team: Ms. Rung Arun Maneechot, our Head GCV Ambassador, has led with vision and determination. She has coordinated and guided Regional Ambassadors, set clear goals, monitored progress, provided support, and ensured the successful propagation of GCV initiatives throughout Thailand. Her dedication to high productivity, engagement, and collaboration has inspired every member of the ecosystem. Mr. Banjong Wongnarong, our GCV Education Ambassador, thank you for educating and empowering the community. Mr. Phupanthong Chishomphu, our Ecosystem Development Ambassador, has been relentless in expanding our merchant network. Thailand’s Role in the International Industry Alliance As the Chair of the International Industry Alliance, I am especially proud to see Thailand represented by Ms. Wantana Intrachaeng as Chair and Mr. Apiwit Noknakorn as Vice Chair. Their role is not only to connect Thai businesses across industries within the country but also to identify opportunities to export products internationally. Their leadership in linking Thai businesses to the global GCV network will be a significant achievement. Under their guidance, Thailand will become a shining example of how real businesses can embrace Pi and strengthen the ecosystem. Merchants & Pioneers – The Heartbeat of GCV To all our merchants and pioneers: you are the heartbeat of this movement. Your engagement, creativity, and active participation transform a concept into a thriving reality. By connecting real businesses to Pi, you are helping us create a self-sustaining economy that demonstrates the tangible value of GCV. Global Context & Adoption Examples Across the world, the International Industry Alliance is growing rapidly. In China, Yiwu has 5,000 factories producing over 1,000 products, all ready to export using partial Pi payment and fiat, and Mr. Jiao’s auto-parts business is also integrated and ready for export proof of China’s real-world adoption of Pi. In Vietnam, a major rice exporter is now accepting Pi for trade, marking real-world adoption in agriculture. In the Arab region, seven companies have joined the alliance. And this is just the beginning. Soon, we will see many more companies globally accepting Pi, supporting GCV, and helping us build a new value chain. Businesses can use Pi within the ecosystem or exchange it for goods and services, creating a self-sustaining Pi economy. Our ultimate goal is for businesses worldwide to accept Pi, giving the world a clear reason to recognize and respect GCV, because real businesses are using Pi in commerce and trade. Thailand as a Global Example Thailand is already setting a standard for the world. The work you have done in training, onboarding, and implementing strategies shows that real businesses can successfully integrate Pi. This conference is not only a celebration of achievements but also a call to action: let us continue to innovate, expand, and collaborate; support fellow ambassadors; empower merchants; and grow the GCV network in Thailand and beyond. Every Pi transaction, every merchant recruited, every ambassador trained brings us closer to a self-sustaining, thriving ecosystem. Each one of you here represents a cornerstone of Thailand’s GCV movement. Merchants are the foundation of our ecosystem they drive commerce while building trust, reputation, and engagement at the local level. Ambassadors are the bridge between vision and reality—they guide, inspire, and ensure the GCV mission is embraced and enacted. Thailand is uniquely positioned to be a beacon for GCV across Asia. By uniting our efforts, focusing on community-driven growth, and fostering collaboration among ambassadors and merchants, we can accelerate the adoption of GCV solutions, create sustainable impact, and strengthen the foundation of this global movement. Let today serve as a reminder that every action matters. Every conversation, every partnership, and every effort to educate and empower strengthens the GCV movement—not just in Thailand, but around the world. Together, we are building an ecosystem that thrives on integrity, innovation, and inclusivity. As we move forward, let us carry the spirit of dedication, unity, and optimism. Let us continue to support and guide one another, celebrating every achievement along the way. Thailand has the talent, the vision, and the heart to lead by example. I am confident that with your unwavering commitment and collaborative spirit, the Thailand GCV Industry Alliance will not only meet but exceed its goals, creating a lasting impact for our communities, merchants, and the global GCV family. Thank you to everyone who has contributed, especially our leadership team and all the merchants supporting GCV. Let us continue working together, innovating, and expanding the reach of GCV, building a strong, united, and thriving Thailand and a world where Pi and GCV are recognized, respected, and valued everywhere.

From Creator to Founder: The Rollercoaster Journey of Building Chatter Social Man, what a journey it’s been so far. Four years ago, I was just another creator, spending late nights on Clubhouse during the height of the pandemic. Like so many others, I was searching for connection, for community, for something meaningful. But what I found there wasn’t just connection—it was purpose. Alongside my brother, Jonathan Bing, we built a nightly show that reached over 5 million people. Imagine that: 5 million lives touched by conversations that felt real and unfiltered, all on a platform that at its peak had 10 million monthly active users. Clubhouse was magic. But then the decline began. Watching the platform struggle, I couldn’t help but reflect: what made it great? What went wrong? And what could the future look like if we did things differently? The Spark of Chatter As a content creator, I understood the needs of both creators and users. I knew what excited people, what kept them engaged, and what made them leave. Clubhouse had tapped into something special, but it had missed the mark on scalability and sustainability. By September 2023, I couldn’t stop thinking about the potential for something new—something that brought back the magic of real-time interaction but made it scalable, engaging, and sticky. And so, I set out to build Chatter Social. But I wasn’t a tech founder. I didn’t have a background in software development or a network of Silicon Valley insiders. What I did have was determination and the belief that if I could bring the right people together, we could build something extraordinary. Building the Team The journey to build Chatter started with assembling a team. Through my network from my days on Clubhouse, I found Samir, my first CTO. He believed in the vision and was instrumental in getting the project off the ground. Shortly after, I connected with Tyler, our Head of Design, whose creativity brought life to our ideas. A developer joined us soon after, and we were off to the races. By the end of 2023, Samir had to step away due to other commitments, and we promoted the developer to CTO. At the same time, I brought on Banko, a Sony music executive, as our CMO. Banko’s connections led to one of our biggest early wins: landing Davido, a global superstar, as an owner-ambassador. To this day, I still marvel at the fact that Davido believed in our vision when all we had were Tyler’s Figma designs. From Dream to Reality Early 2024 was a whirlwind. We hired Yurii and Vasyl, two developers from Ukraine who brought incredible skill and dedication to the team. Vasyl, in particular, stood out as a leader and has since earned an equity position in the company. But despite these wins, we were facing growing pains. Our new CTO struggled to meet deadlines, and as a result, I found myself constantly pushing back the launch date. What started as a January release turned into February, then March, then April, then May. By then, people on Twitter Spaces—where I had been hyping up the platform—started doubting if we even had a product. Launch and Lessons June 1, 2024, marked a turning point. It was the day my son Noah was born and the day we launched Chatter in private beta. We started with just 40 users, but by the end of the month, we had grown to 1,000. The engagement was unbelievable. Users loved it, even though we had launched with just one feature: live rooms. This represented less than 20% of what we had planned, but it was enough to show that we were onto something big. In July, we launched our public beta on the App Store as an invite-only platform. Within 48 hours, Chatter ranked as a top 30 social app in over 30 countries. But our invite system throttled access, and most users couldn’t get in. While engagement metrics soared for those inside, our AWS costs exploded. In August, our AWS bill hit $10,000. By September, it had climbed to $15,000, and we were drowning in bugs and glitches. The breaking point came when our CTO became unresponsive, often disappearing during critical moments. Users were dropping off, frustrated by the issues, developers were confused and the team was also growing increasingly frustrated, I made the tough decision to let him go. A New Beginning Enter Horane, a long-time user of Chatter who had been with us since private beta. He was the first to discover some of the most innovative use cases for the platform and had a deep passion for its potential. After meeting him in person at a Chatter event, I knew he was the right person to step into the CTO role. When Horane took over, we discovered just how bad the situation was. Key areas of the codebase were locked, and there were no separate environments for development and production. Every fix seemed to break something else. But through sheer determination and countless 18-hour days, Horane stabilized the platform. Today, Chatter is far from perfect, but it’s stable. The bugs that plagued us have been reduced to moderate issues, and our core users—those who stuck with us through the chaos—are still engaged on the platform. Looking Ahead: Chatter V2 While the platform is stable now, we’ve shifted our focus to Chatter V2. This is where the magic really begins. V2 isn’t just an improvement; it’s a complete reimagining of the platform. It includes all the features we couldn’t release in V1 because we were too busy putting out fires. Imagine this: Chatter V1, with only one live feature, was incredibly sticky. Now think about what happens when we release a fully loaded platform with all the innovative features we’ve been working on behind the scenes. The possibilities are endless. V2 is slated to hit TestFlight by the end of December, with a public release in January 2025. And this time, we’re ready—not just with the product but with the lessons we’ve learned. The Hard Lessons This journey has taught me more than I ever thought possible: 1) Your Team is Everything: The right people can make or break your vision. Finding people who believe in your mission is just as important as finding people with the right skills. 2) Adaptability is Key: As a non-technical founder, I had to learn about development, DevOps, and product management on the fly. Challenges will push you to grow, whether you’re ready or not. 3) Trust the Process: Every setback, every delay, every bug—it all taught us something. Without those lessons, we wouldn’t be building the incredible V2 product we are today. 4) Resilience is Non-Negotiable: From technical disasters to predatory investors who tried to exploit my desperation, I’ve had to fight for this vision every step of the way. What’s Next December is shaping up to be an exciting month. We have some amazing events planned on the platform to close out the year, bringing our core community together as we prepare for the V2 launch. When V2 drops, it will mark a new era for Chatter. This isn’t just a social audio platform or a social audiovisual platform. Chatter is all about interactive experiences—making social media social again in ways that are truly unique. The public launch is slated for February 2025, and for the first time, we’ll have the marketing dollars to tell the world about Chatter. Our core community has been our biggest cheerleaders, and I can’t wait to see how the world reacts when they experience what we’ve built. Final Thoughts This has been the hardest year of my life, but also the most rewarding. To other founders, or anyone thinking about starting a company: know this—it will test you in ways you can’t imagine. You’ll face betrayal, doubt, and moments where you feel like giving up. But if you believe in your vision and refuse to quit, you’ll find a way forward. Thank you to everyone who has supported me, my team, and Chatter. We’re just getting started. Let’s talk about it. 🚀 If this story inspired you, please like and share it so others can learn from my experiences. The journey is far from over, but I’m more excited than ever for what’s to come.

TOPIC #107: PI NETWORK IS A STABLE COIN? -WHO DECIDES PI FULLY OM FIXED VALUE? Dear GCV army, I hope you are all doing great! First of all, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for all your hard work. Many of you have achieved significant milestones, and it’s evident that you are making a great difference. Our influence has grown significantly, with an increasing number of social media posts and YouTubers publicly supporting us. I can see that more and more people are beginning to understand why we advocate for GCV. Today's meeting aims to alleviate any doubts you may have, allowing you to relax and feel confident as we embark on our historic journey together. I will answer the questions I’ve received and address some important issues we need to focus on to maintain our community's efficiency, particularly regarding our Generals, which will be the topic next weekend. I put the questions I received here. "A question addressed to Ms. Doris Yin in the emergency meeting 1– In light of the rapidly changing global circumstances and the increasing discussion about stablecoins backed by U.S. Treasury bonds, how do you see the future role of the Pi Network in this context? And what practical steps should the GCV army take now to accelerate this path? 2_ There are those who promote the idea that the price of Pi is what appears in the market (currently around $0.49) and compare it to the price of GCV within the ecosystem (314,159 Pi = 1 good or service). They say if Pi’s price rises to $2, it means that the value within The ecosystem is approximately 2 million dollars. With sincere appreciation and discipline." This is from the Arab head of GCV Ambassador Mr. Mohammed. Another question: "Hello, my Global Ambassador, I am Ateba Joseph, Ecological Ambassador in Cameroon And a member of the GCV army, I am delighted to exchange with you. Regarding the meeting with the GCV army on Sunday, July 27, 2025.. Here is my concern: A few days ago, a correspondence indicated that Pi is not or is not yet a stable coin. Upon reading this information, we have provided many explanations to help the pioneers understand this. I hope you will focus more on this statement to further strengthen our understanding of the subject. Thank you for taking my concerns into consideration" Thank you for the above questions; my answers are below. The first question concerns stablecoins. Many pioneers are hoping that Pi can be recognized by the U.S. government as a stablecoin. I wrote an article on this in May. On July 18, 2025, President Trump signed the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for US Stablecoins Act (the GENIUS Act) into law. This legislation establishes a regulatory framework for payment stablecoins and marks the first federal legislation on digital assets enacted since President Trump issued an executive order aimed at making the U.S. the “crypto capital of the world.” U.S.-issued stablecoins are expected to become the primary means of dollar transactions globally, especially in emerging markets with unstable local currencies. The sponsors of the GENIUS Act estimate that by 2030, stablecoin issuers may collectively become the largest holders of U.S. Treasuries, surpassing foreign central banks. From this, we can see that U.S. stablecoins must maintain reserves backing outstanding payment stablecoins on a one-to-one basis, consisting only of specified assets, including U.S. dollars and short-term Treasury securities. It is clear that the Pi Network will not take this path, as it is not part of our plan. A stablecoin is essentially a digital representation of the U.S. dollar. All stablecoin issuers do not create a new currency; rather, it’s akin to purchasing chips at a casino – you must use U.S. dollars to buy those chips. However, Pi is a completely new currency. It does not need to be backed up by U.S. dollars or U.S. Treasuries to be used. If that were the case, we wouldn’t need to establish an ecosystem or have a three-year enclosed mainnet. I previously mentioned the possibility of Pi being an algorithmic stablecoin since only algorithmic stablecoins do not need to be backed by U.S. dollars. However, algorithmic stablecoins have faced significant failures in the past. The collapse of the Terra (LUNA) cryptocurrency resulted in a loss of at least $40 billion in market capitalization, with estimates reaching as high as $60 billion. TerraUSD (UST), an algorithmic stablecoin, lost its peg to the U.S. dollar, contributing to its overall collapse. The new stablecoin legislation recently passed through the Senate effectively ties the U.S. Treasury to crypto, as it essentially bets the government’s cash flow on digital tokens and market speculation. This legislation requires stablecoins to be backed by short-term Treasury bills, generating an estimated $2–$3 trillion in new demand for government debt, which is nearly half the current size of the T-bill market. On paper, this looks beneficial, but in reality, it creates a circular feedback loop: crypto demand fuels stablecoins, stablecoins buy T-bills, and T-bills fund government deficits. The government becomes reliant on speculative capital flows. Thus, we should understand why the U.S. government will not support the Pi Network as a stablecoin, as they require stablecoin issuers to buy T-bills and can no longer trust algorithmic stablecoins. So, what is the future of the Pi Network as a currency? From my perspective, Pi is already listed on exchange markets. It cannot be classified as a security because it is mined freely and is not an ICO. Instead, it should be categorized as a commodity, similar to Bitcoin and ETH. When a currency is listed for trading on an exchange, its price is determined by the balance of supply and demand. However, Pi is a currency in its own right; it has inherent value from Pi holders -Pioneers. Historically, currency has served as a medium of exchange. A medium of exchange is a widely accepted item for buying goods and services in an economy. It facilitates transactions by eliminating the need for a barter system, where goods are directly exchanged for other goods. In modern economies, money (such as currency) serves as the primary medium of exchange. **Functions of Money:** One of the core functions of money is to serve as a medium of exchange, enabling the smooth transfer of value between buyers and sellers, thereby simplifying trade and economic activity. **Examples:** In modern economies, this typically includes currency (paper money, coins) or digital money. In specific historical contexts, other items, such as cigarettes in prisoner-of-war camps, have also served as mediums of exchange. **Importance of Acceptance:** For a medium of exchange to function effectively, it must be widely accepted and trusted within the relevant community. **Not the Same as a Payment Method:** While credit cards and checks are used for payments, they do not serve as mediums of exchange themselves. Therefore, stablecoin is not a new currency. It is more likely to have a credit card or check character. It is a USD digital status. From the analysis presented, we can draw the following conclusions: The current price of Pi on the exchange market primarily serves as a temporary measure to facilitate broad expansion. While this is not our primary objective, it constitutes a strategic approach towards achieving our mission. To gain a clearer perspective, we must adopt a higher-level view of the overall vision for the Pi Network. The mission and vision of Pi Network clearly articulate that it is not intended to function as a commodity for sale, nor is it meant to be an investment vehicle or a speculative security. Instead, it is crucial to recognize that Pi is designed to be a medium of exchange—a new form of currency. As pioneers in this venture, we have the unique opportunity to acquire Pi through free mining. However, it is important to note that the current mining rate is relatively slow. To overcome this limitation and to further our goal of mass adoption, it is essential for more individuals to join the Pi Network and participate in holding Pi. One efficient way to accelerate this process is by allowing Pi to be traded on the exchange market, which can result in rapid and widespread adoption. Since Pi can be mined for free, a lower price could make it more accessible to a larger number of people. It's important to focus on our primary goal during this pre-full Open Mainnet (OM) phase: mass adoption, rather than aiming for high prices, which many pioneers expected. Some pioneers want to sell when the price increases, but if too many sell, it could undermine our goal of achieving mass adoption. This scenario is reminiscent of historical instances when shells served as currency—readily accessible from the sea or buy from the village market. For shells to function effectively as currency, a collective effort was needed to hold and circulate them within the village. If only a select few individuals possess the shells, the currency lacks the necessary circulation to sustain an economy. Hence, our goal should not be centered on achieving a high price; instead, we should strive to make Pi more affordable so that a greater number of individuals can acquire and hold it, thereby fostering a thriving economic ecosystem. Of course, the rising price will build up merchants' confidence to accept it as payment. This is why we refer to it as a buyback campaign, which aims to achieve mass adoption and foster ecosystem confidence. As Pi evolves into a currency, the question of its value becomes pertinent. Given that it is a new currency, its value is not immediately clear. This presents an opportunity for us, the pioneers, to play a crucial role in defining it. The determination of Pi's value is not the responsibility of a central authority such as CT, the government, or the exchange. Instead, it will emerge from a decentralized consensus within the community, which collectively owns Pi. This concept is akin to ancient times when the value of shells was not determined by the sellers. Rather, the value was derived from the collective agreement of the village that utilized them as currency. I hope this elaboration clarifies the distinction between value and price, enabling a deeper understanding of the foundational principles that drive our mission with Pi Network. Pi represents a groundbreaking innovation—a revolution that is poised for long-term economic development on a global scale, rather than perpetuating cycles of plunder and exploitation. By harnessing the power of blockchain technology, Pi empowers ordinary individuals, which creates an inherent conflict of interest with the U.S. government in the short term. Should the U.S. government endorse the Pi Network, it raises questions about the viability of U.S. treasuries and who would ultimately purchase them. Consequently, the government may prioritize support for stablecoins backed by the U.S. dollar and U.S. Treasury securities, as this can help alleviate the U.S. government's issues with limited demand. However, I previously mentioned the potential for Pi to emerge as an algorithmic stablecoin. At that time, the Genius Bill had not yet been enacted. If the Pi Network gains acceptance from the U.S. government, its growth could become rapid and expansive, leading to widespread adoption in other nations. This path would position Pi as a legitimate currency in nearly every country, contingent upon certain conditions. For instance, if the price of Pi in the exchange market can align with the GCV, this could be achieved through a buyback mechanism involving 10 million pioneers. Such a scenario would indicate that Pi differs significantly from past algorithmic stablecoin failures, presenting a compelling case for the U.S. government to view Pi as a low-risk asset. However, it presents a significant challenge to be collectively reached by pioneers, and there are other conditions that we cannot achieve in a short time. While it might appear that Pi Network conflicts with the U.S. dollar or stablecoins in the short term, it has the potential to address the broader issue of overprinting currency, which has plagued the U.S. and many other nations. This would benefit international trade by alleviating concerns about currency appreciation or depreciation in international transactions. The global economy indeed requires a super sovereign currency—one that ensures stability for future generations and fosters lasting peace and prosperity. To comprehend Pi as a currency, it is crucial to recognize that we must cultivate long-term value by generating GCV data. In the short term, our focus needs to be on establishing a robust exchange market and decentralized applications (DApps) to drive mass adoption. If this is understood, there should be no need to feel discouraged by the current low price of Pi. The true value of Pi as a currency derives not from the exchange market, trading platforms, or governmental endorsement, but rather from our community's collective efforts and engagement. You might wonder how a government could adopt Pi, given that it does not take the form of a stablecoin. I would counter with the example of Bitcoin, which has thrived even in environments where many countries have imposed bans. Currently, Pi is transitioning from its traditional commodity status to being recognized as a currency, meaning governmental awareness of Pi Network is still in development. As such, existing regulations generally pertain to older forms of cryptocurrency rather than our innovative approach. Our branding as a digital currency, rather than a cryptocurrency, is intentional. Dr. Nicolas has expressed concerns that many aspects of conventional cryptocurrencies pose challenges to government frameworks and public trust, often leading to economic harm rather than benefit. Our commitment to Know Your Customer (KYC) and Know Your Business (KYB) protocols distinguishes us by mitigating money laundering risks and protecting Pi holders from speculative practices. Many businesses face bankruptcy or closure because consumers lack the disposable income to engage in spending. Imagine how Pi could enable those businesses to survive and thrive—people could utilize Pi to make purchases and easily convert it into fiat currency to sustain operations, thereby preserving many jobs. The function in our wallet that allows users to "buy" Pi is not merely a feature; it represents a vision for the future where conversion to fiat currency can happen immediately, without dependency on third-party exchanges. Moving forward, we can establish a fixed rate (the GCV) for conversions. Once larger institutions and prominent companies recognize the low-risk profile of joining Pi Network due to its GCV stability, we can expect a considerable influx of participants seeking to gain a competitive advantage. You may ask how companies would finance the purchase of Pi at GCV rates. This is an insightful question. My perspective is that the demand for Pi’s stable value will inherently incentivize investments. Much like why individuals purchase stablecoins for their convenience in facilitating cross-border transactions, Pi will appeal to consumers and businesses alike, particularly because we are leveraging Web 3.0 blockchain technology, AI-driven platforms, and a rich ecosystem of decentralized applications (DApps). We are cultivating a loyal customer base that recognizes the value of this innovation. We understand that high-net-worth individuals seek safe investment opportunities. While U.S. treasury bonds currently represent a secure asset class, they are not without risk. Therefore, if Pi Network can maintain a limited supply coupled with blockchain technology and a consistent GCV, it is plausible that affluent investors would allocate a portion of their capital to acquire Pi. This would lead to fiat inflows whenever there is increased demand for Pi, establishing an equilibrium between Pi and fiat currencies. This interplay is why I believe DApps are critically significant. We need broader usage of Pi in real-world applications. I hope my analysis has helped clarify why the price of Pi should not overly concern us. Buying Pi to hold onto it allows pioneers to accumulate more, while building merchant confidence is essential to kickstart the ecosystem. Merchants will be motivated to see Pi’s price appreciation since this removes the risks for DApps and service providers who depend on exchange market prices. A rise in demand for Pi will subsequently reduce its supply, which is beneficial for price increases. I look forward to discussing Pi GCV army management in another session. Thank you for your time. Let’s continue striving for greatness together. Doris Yin 🪷🪷🪷 Founder, Global GCV Movement Disclaimer: This speech is intended solely for educational purposes within the GCV community.

Finally, Ed Davey calls for the UK to join the EU Single Market 👏 "We meet at an extraordinary moment. Vladimir Putin is still waging war on our continent. Donald Trump's chaos in the Middle East goes on. And our government, our own government is paralysed by infighting, waiting for Makerfield to release them from their agony." "And yet, despite all that, standing with you here today, I feel hope. And not just about England's chances against Croatia tonight, but hope about our country's future." "Not hope because the path ahead is easy. It isn't. Not hope because everything will magically get better. It won't." "But hope because finally, after ten long, difficult years, I believe we can move on. We can finally fix the Brexit damage, end the Brexit chaos and get our country back on track." "Because the story the media won't tell you, as they fawn over the rise of Farage, as they hang on his every empty press conference, is that the country is with us. We hear it on the doorsteps, we see it in the polls, we feel it in our communities." "People are fed up. They've had enough. Enough of the chaos in government, the queues at ports, the queues at airports, the bills that just keep on going up." "They know the hard truth that most politicians won't admit. The Brexit experiment has failed. And it's failed all of us." "£90 billion a year. That's how much it's costing us all as taxpayers" "£90 billion every year, gone" "That's £250 million every single day. Taken away from our schools, our hospitals, our armed forces. Taken out of everyone's pockets in the form of unfair tax rises." "Not because of a pandemic, not because of a war, not because of some force of nature out of our control, but because of their Brexit experiment. Boris Johnson, Nigel Farage and the rest. An experiment that has now consumed a decade of British politics. That has tangled British businesses up in pointless red tape, that has pushed up prices for British families and that has left us all poorer." "Well, not all of us, apparently. Farage says that the five million he got from a crypto billionaire was his reward for Brexit. So when he said 'We'll be better off after Brexit,' it turns out he was using the royal we." "But friends, it's not only the economic and financial impact, as disastrous as those have been. It's the way they have poisoned our relationship with our nearest neighbours and friends, making it harder to work together on all the things we need to. Energy security and climate change, migration and refugees, AI, and above all, defence." "Britain has always been at its best when we stand tall with our European allies, not when we shut ourselves off. Now they promised us global Britain, but they have left us isolated at the worst possible time. Poorer, weaker and more insecure." "Their experiment has failed. We all know it. So it's time to move on." "But what do they say? The ones who caused all this. The people responsible. Farage and the Conservative Party. They say 'Tough.' They say you can't move on. They say you can't question Britain's relationship with Europe now. You can't dare to suggest there might be a better way. Doesn't matter how bad it gets, doesn't matter how much you're struggling. You just have to live with it, they say." "We say 'No.' We say Britain shouldn't have to live with a bad deal they've lumped us with. We say our country deserves far better than that." "Theirs is old thinking. It's 2016 thinking. The world has changed dramatically since then. It's time for us to change too. It's time for us to move on, move forward." "Just look around. Vladimir Putin is bombing schools and hospitals in Ukraine, murdering innocent civilians. He's testing NATO's resolve and setting his sights on the rest of Eastern Europe. He has shown that territorial conquest is not some relic of the distant past. It is happening now on European soil to our friends and our allies who share our values and our way of life." "And Donald Trump, he's torching the world economy for fun with his tariffs and his trade wars and now his actual war with Iran. He's ripping up the rules-based international order that generations of British leaders, American leaders, European leaders, painstakingly built after the Second World War. Trump threatening NATO, emboldening Putin and actively meddling in our democracies." "And then there's China, increasingly using trade supply chains and strategic dependencies as instruments of geopolitical competition." "And to add to all those political changes, there's the billionaire tech barons taking more and more control of our lives and our jobs with their empires of AI and social media, that no one nation can govern on its own." "The assumptions we have lived by for decades, that global trade would keep expanding, that international rules would broadly be respected, that our security would be underwritten by stable alliances. Those assumptions no longer hold. The world has changed more rapidly than at any time since the end of the Cold War. And our politics must change too." "Now we obviously can't turn to those who wrecked it. Farage and the Conservatives. They only want to make things worse. Even now, pushing for Brexit 2.0 with their plans to rip up the European Convention on Human Rights. They would just rerun all the old arguments, forcing Britain to replay the last ten years over and over in a never ending Brexit doom loop." "But nor, I'm afraid, can we look to Labour. Labour who failed to act with anything like the urgency this moment demands. Who don't seem to grasp the scale of the change we need in our relationship with Europe. Labour, who still kept us hemmed in the red lines they set more than five years ago. No single market, no customs union. Red lines they set before Putin invaded Ukraine, before Trump returned to the White House. Red lines that were wrong then and are even more wrong now." "The world has changed and it's time to move on. We cannot be trapped by that old thinking anymore. We have to look to the future. Not back to 2016 but to 2036 and beyond." "And that's why we're all here today, isn't it? Not because we are bitter about the past, but because we believe in a better future. Because we love our country and we know its brightest days still lie ahead." "We're here for our children and our grandchildren because we want them to inherit a country that is growing, that is confident, that is leading, not one that is shrinking, stagnating and standing alone." "That's what drives us. We're here because the world has changed, because the challenges we face to our economy, to our society and to our national defence are real and urgent. And because we believe Britain deserves ambition that matches the scale of this moment." "So what does that ambition look like? Well, first the government needs to drop those old red lines that stop us getting rid of the Conservatives' red tape. Those red lines are holding Britain back. They're hurting the British people and they are playing into the hands of Farage and Reform." "So my message to Andy Burnham, to Wes Streeting, to whoever the next Prime Minister may be, is drop those red lines. Drop them now." "If we do, we can move on from the torpor and timidity that has marked out Labour's approach to Europe so far. We can put an end to the endless talk of a reset that so far seems to just mean saying no more politely than the Conservatives did. And we can get on with properly fixing our relationship with Europe, for our economy, for our security, for our future." "Our party has led that debate for years. Last year, days before Trump took office, we set out plans for the UK to join a new customs union with the EU. And today I want to build on that and go further, much further." "Today we are calling for a new growth and defence partnership with the European Union. A new growth and defence partnership with the European Union. A bold new deal that will make Britain richer, safer and stronger, including a customs union, but also crucially taking Britain back into the single market." "Tearing down the barriers to trade. Ending the mountains of paperwork, the cost, the delays, the queues. Giving our young people the chance to study and work, live and love anywhere in the EU. Undoing the damage of the Johnson Farage Brexit deal that has held our economy back for so long." "Giving British businesses the certainty they need to invest, to hire and to grow. Giving Britain's economy the boost it needs after years of stagnation. Crucially, giving Britain's public finances a growth dividend. Tens of billions of pounds that we would use to cut the cost of living, to fix the NHS and to strengthen our armed forces." "And this new partnership must go beyond trade and growth. In the age of Putin, Xi and Trump, this must be about defence and security too. No country can be prosperous and free if it is not safe." "And Britain can help lead on defence in Europe as we have so decisively in the past. Despite the Conservatives' short-sighted cuts to our armed forces and Labour's chaos over investing in them now, Britain is still one of Europe's foremost military powers. We are a leading intelligence nation, a permanent member of the UN Security Council and the third-biggest contributor to NATO." "We should be using those strengths. We should be at the table, helping to shape Europe's security future, not watching from the sidelines. And Europe wants us at the table. They know they need our leadership on defence." "So let's seize the initiative from a position of strength to form a new partnership that strengthens both Britain's economy and our collective security. That is why our new partnership would be about defence as much as it is about growth." "That means financial cooperation through a new European rearmament bank, alongside securing UK access to the one hundred and fifty billion euro safe programme. It means joint defence procurement, creating jobs in Britain while strengthening our collective capabilities. It means deeper cooperation on intelligence, on cyber security and on protecting critical infrastructure." "It means working together on energy security so that none of us can be held hostage by an authoritarian regime turning off the gas. It means political cooperation through a new European Security Council with a permanent seat for the UK, ensuring that Europe can shoulder greater responsibility for its own security within NATO." "As Trump's actions remind us every day, that we cannot afford to rely so much on the United States. Friends, this is not a choice we can afford to dodge any longer. In the face of Putin's threats and Trump's unpredictability, a new defence pact with Europe, with allies on whom we can depend, allies who share our interests and our values, is frankly the only way to keep Britain safe and defend our values in a dangerous world." "A new defence pact with Europe is not a choice, it is a necessity. So let's get on with it." "That is the ambition we need when it comes to our relationship with Europe. No more tinkering around the edges of a bad deal. No more shackling ourselves to the arguments of the last ten years, but building something new. A partnership fit for the enormous challenges we face today." "A new growth and defence partnership with a new pact for our collective security. Forming a customs union, joining the single market. A new partnership to make us richer, safer and stronger." "I think it's the best hope our country has to stop the chaos and end the crisis. And, my friends, it is the biggest step we could take now back towards membership of the EU." "And there's another big step we need to take too. Defeating Nigel Farage and Reform. We have to stop them from turning our United Kingdom into their version of Trump's America." "And here's the point. Until we do defeat them, many in Europe will not countenance Britain joining." "Let's remember why this matters, why it's so crucial for Britain to be there at the heart of Europe, at the table with our nearest neighbours." "I've been privileged to see it for myself, the power we have when Britain leads in Europe. When Vladimir Putin invaded Crimea in 2014, we recognised then that the way to defeat him would be to get Europe off its dependence on Russian oil and gas, to take away the money that was funding his aggression, to bankrupt the Russian war machine." "So I led Britain's efforts to bring Europe together behind that common cause, and we succeeded. We wrote Europe's energy security strategy. Britain did that, sitting at the table, leading in Europe." "But then, instead of seeing it through, the Conservatives walked away. They gave up Britain's seat at the table. They locked us out of those discussions at the worst possible time." "Just imagine where we could be now if Britain had continued to lead on energy security. Imagine how much weaker Putin would be now. Imagine how much safer Ukraine and the rest of Europe, including Britain, would be now. What a terrible waste. What an indictment of the Conservatives." "And that is why I am so determined to get us back at the table, back at the heart of Europe. Britain leading again." "Now I want to speak for a moment about the bigger picture. Because our ambition is not limited to Europe alone. It's about Britain's place in the world." "The old assumption that trade, security and prosperity could be treated as separate issues no longer holds. Supply chains can be disrupted. Energy can be weaponised. Economic security and national security are now inseparable." "At a time when authoritarian powers are doing so much to undermine our security, democratic nations must work more closely together to enhance it. As Mark Carney said in Davos, middle powers must act together, because if we're not at the table, we're on the menu. He is right." "Fixing our relationship with Europe is the essential foundation, but it's not the ceiling. The UK can be an incredible force for good when it stands tall on the world stage. Our history, our alliances and our relationships across every continent gives us a unique position for us to act as a bridge, not just between Europe and the US but between Europe and the whole wider democratic world." "We are here because we believe that our country and our people thrive when we are open and outward looking. That is Britain at its best. Not a small inward looking island clinging to the wreckage of a failed experiment, but a leader, a convening power, a country that helps shape the international order rather than being buffeted by it." "That is the Britain we can be." "But friends, I want to be honest with you about the task ahead. What we are proposing is bold. It is ambitious. It requires courage, requires leadership. And it will not happen without all of us." "We know the obstacles we face, the arguments ahead, the opponents who would rather replay the last ten years instead of moving on from them. Who will tell us we can't even talk about a new deal with Europe, let alone make one. The politicians who will claim change isn't possible because the status quo works for them. But it doesn't work for anyone else." "So our job is to get out there and show people that change is possible, that it doesn't have to be like this, that there is a way forward. A better future for our country. Leading in Europe once again." "This isn't just because we believe in Europe. It's not just about friendship or shared history, or the fact that a divided Europe has always ended in misery. Fixing it is about us, our country, our future, our hopes and our dreams." "Britain needs a new plan. A plan for growth, for jobs, for defence. A plan to give our children the better future they deserve. A new deal with Europe. The only way to fix the cost of living crisis. The only way to get our country back on track." "So let us stand together. Let us end the chaos. Let us show the world what Britain can be. Not a small island clinging to a failed experiment, but a leader, open, outward looking. At the table, not on the menu." "A Britain that is richer, safer and stronger. That is the future we are fighting for." " Thank you. Thank you very much."

My cousin, Jonathan Ord asked me to teach the Come Follow Me lesson to his mission yesterday over zoom. This is the video I did and the full text. Hi. I am Brad Smith. I have ALS, which is a really weird disease that kills the motor neurons in my body. That means that I lose the connections between my brain and my muscles. My mind is still running at the normal rate. So, I can understand everything you say to me, but I can’t respond very quickly! I am getting faster, though. Last November I was the 3rd person in the world to receive the Neuralink brain implant. So I am controlling this computer with my brain. This is my old voice, recreated by AI from just two hours of me talking to my phone. I have come to see ALS as a calling, and I am trying to magnify it. I used to talk easily, but now I have to choose my words carefully, because it is hard and slow to type what I want to say. I joke that the Lord gave me ALS to get me to shut up. Those who knew me when I could talk laugh the hardest. President Ord is my first cousin. So we share grandma and grandpa Smith. Our grandma Smith was a character. When she taught at church, she would put a sign up that read: “thus saith the lord:” so I will try to keep this within what the Lord has actually said, while trying to teach you to look at a basic principle of the gospel in a different way. Ironically, the first verse of Doctrine & Covenants 93 starts with “Verily, thus saith the Lord”. This is an amazing section of scripture, Jesus Christ telling us to step up and be better! You should study it often. I will start with a story. I asked AI to make a video to dramatically tell the story. During college, I lived in Damascus, Syria, for a semester. It was a fantastic and wonderful experience. I especially loved exploring the Old City of Damascus. The Old City is built around the huge beautiful Umayyad mosque. Within the walls of the old city is a maze of narrow, winding, confusing streets and one really long straight street, as Saul found out in Acts 9:11. One day when a group of us were trying to get through this maze from the mosque to the Christian quarter of the Old City, we asked a man for directions. He thought for a second, then pointed and said, “Go left and then right, and then left and then right, and then left and then right, and then left and right, and you’ll be there.” Aren’t those the most ridiculous directions you have ever heard? We could have ignored him. But, we thought, he did know the city better than we did. So, with some laughter, off we went. Left. Right. Left. Right. And so on until, much to our surprise, we popped out at our destination. Life is a confusing maze. We face difficult choices, unexpected events, surprises, sorrows, opportunities, roadblocks. The Lord has given directions on how to get through to where we want to go. Sometimes the Lord’s directions seem odd, and we may struggle with the decision to follow. The Lord will not force us. It is our choice whether to choose and follow him. Wasn’t that fun? AI is getting crazy! I will be much less entertaining for the rest, but hopefully the spirit will teach you something new. The phrase “keep the commandments” (or “keepeth my commandments”) appears at least 4 times in Doctrine and Covenants Section 93, in verses 1, 20, 27, and 28. There are other references, like “keep my sayings” in 52 and “obeyeth my voice” in 1. So, commandments are really important in this Revelation. I suggest that making the gospel a more central part of our lives depends largely on how we look at commandments. When you think of commandments, do you think “I can’t. I’m Mormon”? (That was a popular T-shirt slogan during my college years.) Although, with the recent guidance from President Nelson, it probably should be “I can’t, I’m a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints”. It’s a common reaction: “Thou shalt not do Cool Things.” People LOVE to focus on all the things we CAN’T do, as if we are trapped and deserve pity for our beliefs. No pity is needed. Commandments are opportunities, not constraints. Commandments are awesome! Allow me to illustrate. Imagine a spectrum between Good and Evil. Somewhere in the middle is “the Line” that divides Good from Evil. As a teenager, I wanted to know where the Line was, so I could get close to it without going over it. I wanted to be on the “Good” side but still be able to do as many “Cool Things" with my friends as possible. From my experience, I believe God gives us two types of commandments: 1) Get Back over the Line commandments and 2) Come Further into the Light commandments. Type 1, the Get Back over the Line commandments, could also be called “Misery Avoidance” commandments. They are designed to keep us out of misery or, if we’ve crossed the Line, to bring us out of misery and back into the Good side. These are generally commandments with a clear and defined point of success, such as “Thou shalt not kill.” You will know, at the end of each day, whether you have successfully followed that commandment. I think all of the Ten Commandments fall into this category. The law of Moses was very black and white. The children of Israel had been in Egypt without a prophet for a long time when Moses received the law, and they needed to work on the basics. So, if you follow the Type 1 commandments, you will refrain from doing things that make you miserable. You will know you are in the Good if you can answer the baptismal interview and temple recommend questions honestly and faithfully. If you can do that, you have taken the basic steps necessary to avoid misery and are on a solid foundation for the next type of commandment. Type 2, the “Come Further into the Light” commandments, are the really cool commandments. Once we are out of the misery category, we can really start to pursue joy. So, God commands us to do things that he knows will make us happier and more like Christ. These commandments are the principles of eternal development, such as “Love thy neighbor” (Matthew 22:39). There is no clear end to loving our neighbor—it requires positive and eternal progression. We can always love more, and we can always find another neighbor who needs our love. It is an eternal principle taught by Jesus Christ. And if we truly love our neighbor, refraining from killing him becomes pretty easy. It is through these commandments that we find joy in Jesus Christ. Elder Christofferson taught about this spectrum in the October 2018 general conference: “Most of us find ourselves at this moment on a continuum between a socially motivated participation in gospel rituals on the one hand and a fully developed, Christlike commitment to the will of God on the other. Somewhere along that continuum, the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ enters into our heart and takes possession of our soul. It may not happen in an instant, but we should all be moving toward that blessed state.” Our goal is to go THAT WAY (toward Christ) as much as possible. So first, get back across the line and stop doing things that will make you miserable. Then make every effort to try and be like Jesus, to “love one another as Jesus loves you.” The gospel of Jesus Christ is more than just “not doing” stuff. It is about coming unto Christ, being perfected in him, and denying ourselves of all ungodliness. Discuss with your companion what commandments and mission rules are for “Misery Avoidance” and which are “Come Further into the Light”! And, remember, commandments are ALWAYS connected to huge blessings. The Lord promised, “There is a law, irrevocably decreed in heaven before the foundations of this world, upon which all blessings are predicated—and when we obtain any blessing from God, it is by obedience to that law upon which it is predicated” (Doctrine and Covenants 130:20–21). Whenever we obey any of God’s commandments, we will get the blessing associated with that commandment. Elder David A. Bednar said: “The gospel of Jesus Christ encompasses much more than avoiding, overcoming, and being cleansed from sin and the bad influences in our lives; it also essentially entails doing good, being good, and becoming better. Repenting of our sins and seeking forgiveness are spiritually necessary, and we must always do so. But remission of sin is not the only or even the ultimate purpose of the gospel. To have our hearts changed by the Holy Spirit such that “we have no more disposition to do evil, but to do good continually” (Mosiah 5:2), as did King Benjamin’s people, is the covenant responsibility we have accepted. “This mighty change is not simply the result of working harder or developing greater individual discipline. Rather, it is the consequence of a fundamental change in our desires, our motives, and our natures made possible through the Atonement of Christ the Lord. Our spiritual purpose is to overcome both sin and the desire to sin, both the taint and the tyranny of sin.” I LOVE this concept—and as I have paid attention, I feel like apostles are trying to teach us this all the time. Are we listening? Let me repeat what Elder Bednar said. He said that the commandments help us change what we WANT. Why is that important? Remember my teenage desires? I wanted to be as close to the line as possible so I could still look cool for my friends. That is a good example of the “tyranny” of sin. Even though I was not actually sinning (probably because I was afraid of my mother), I still had some small desire to sin. I said, “I can’t. I’m Mormon” with many dramatic sighs. Overcoming the tyranny of sin is getting to the point where the sin no longer looks remotely interesting or fun because we are too busy loving our neighbors and trying to be like Jesus. Elder Dallin H. Oaks said: “The Final Judgment is not just an evaluation of a sum total of good and evil acts—what we have done. It is an acknowledgment of the final effect of our acts and thoughts—what we have become. It is not enough for anyone just to go through the motions. The commandments, ordinances, and covenants of the gospel are not a list of deposits required to be made in some heavenly account. The gospel of Jesus Christ is a plan that shows us how to become what our Heavenly Father desires us to become.” This talk was given when I was on a mission, before most of you were born. It completely changed my perspective on the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is called The Challenge to Become” and I recommend that you study it. When the Lord says keep the commandments, he isn’t just telling us to stop sinning—he wants us to become like Christ and to have joy. Take a moment and think, Where am I on this continuum? Remember that none of us is perfect like the Savior, and we all need to lift one another. That is why we worship together. That is why we have priesthood quorums and the Relief Society, Primary, and youth organizations. The Lord taught us that truth when he said we all have different gifts: “To some is given one [gift], and to some is given another [gift], that all may be profited thereby. To some it is given by the Holy Ghost to know that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and that he was crucified for the sins of the world. To others it is given to believe on their words, that they also might have eternal life if they continue faithful” (Doctrine and Covenants 46:12–14). The Savior is still WAY over there: a thousand miles away somewhere. That is why we have quorums. We all have a long way to go. Let’s link arms and run together. Let me finish by telling a story from my mission to support my testimony of Jesus. Years ago my mission president said something interesting: “Either the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is truly the kingdom of god on the earth... or it is the greatest fraud ever in history.“ It is audacious to claim to be the true Church of Jesus Christ—but let me explain exactly why I know that to be true. I always BELIEVED that I was raised in the gospel of Jesus Christ. My parents taught me well and I felt good following the commandments and studying the scriptures. That led me to serve a mission in Brazil. My turning point of testimony came when I was 20–at least 2/3rds through my mission. We were invited into a house in the “fundos” of a property—a small structure built behind a larger house. The man was polite and allowed us to share our message. As I had done hundreds of times, I shared the story of Joseph Smith, a boy who sought the truth through prayer. I recited Joseph’s own words in response to his prayer: “I saw a pillar of light exactly over my head, above the brightness of the sun, which descended gradually until it fell upon me... When the light rested upon me I saw two Personages, whose brightness and glory defy all description, standing above me in the air. One of them spake unto me, calling me by name and said, pointing to the other—This is My Beloved Son. Hear Him!" I felt the strongest feeling I had ever experienced—an undeniable confirmation that what I said was true. It hit me in a way I can never forget! I knew that Joseph Smith was truly a prophet, and therefore the Book of Mormon was the word of god. What about the man we were teaching? How had he responded to my life-affirming spiritual experience? He shrugged and politely thanked us for the message. I was stunned. I felt like the windows of heaven opened on me—and he felt nothing. I learned that receiving answers to our prayers is like tuning a radio: not everyone is on the right frequency. For some reason, the Lord decided to broadcast on my frequency that day. I received the undeniable confirmation that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is true. I have built on that foundation brick by brick since then. And every time someone has challenged me on Joseph Smith, I go back to that day in Brazil. I know that he was a prophet. My life has been blessed in ridiculously good ways since then. As I have tried to follow Jesus Christ, great things have happened to me. Even my hardest and most frustrating times have turned out to have a purpose. God has upturned my best laid plans over and over. But I look back and realize that I could never have planned any better. With the prophet Nephi I say: “I know that [God] loveth his children; nevertheless, I do not know the meaning of all things." (1 Nephi 11:17) When I say that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is true, that does not mean we have a monopoly on truth. I know Christians and Muslims who teach me to be better—and Members of the church who are far from disciples of Christ. We just have more truth: scriptures, living prophets, ordinances, personal revelation, and answers to many of life’s biggest questions! That is pretty cool. But we can’t be prideful about the truth we have. You have all probably met people to admire both inside and outside of the church. So, I am all in. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is true—not a big fraud. And we are all trying to get closer to Christ. I know that Heavenly Father has a plan for me. Life has not been what I expected, but I trust him! I know that Joseph Smith is a prophet of Jesus Christ and that the Book of Mormon is true. This is “intelligence, or, in other words, light and truth. Light and truth forsake that evil one.” With that knowledge, keep the commandments! In the name of Jesus Christ, amen .

In the spring of 2022, former President Barack Obama gave a major policy addressat Stanford University’s Cyber Policy Center, where he laid out a sweeping proposal for government censorship of social media platforms through the Platform Accountability and Transparency Act. Six days later, President Joe Biden’s Department of Homeland Security announced that it had created a “Disinformation Governance Board” to serve as an Orwellian Ministry of Truth with the clear goal of controlling the information Americans could access online. At the heart of Obama’s vision for Internet censorship was legislation that would have authorized the US government’s National Science Foundation to authorize and fund supposedly independent NGOs to censor the Internet. The DHS and Stanford Internet Observatory, which was part of the Stanford Cyber Policy Center, pioneered this censorship-by-proxy strategy as a way to get around the First Amendment in 2020 with posts raising concerns about the 2020 elections and in 2021 with “narratives” expressing concern about the Covid vaccine. The 2024 election of President Donald Trump significantly reduced the threat of Obama, DHS, and NSF censoring the American people. Trump defunded much of the Censorship Industrial Complex. The Platform Accountability Act is going nowhere in Congress. Elon Musk fired most of the censorship staff at Twitter and has allowed a significantly wider range of speech on the platform. And even before Trump’s election, Stanford donor Frank McCourt stopped funding the Stanford Internet Observatory after Public, Racket News, and House Weaponization Subcommittee Chairman Jim Jordan exposed its central role in the DHS censorship-by-proxy scheme. But now, foreign governments, including Europe, the UK, Brazil, Australia, and others are demanding censorship, including of the American people. The risk is that US tech companies will find it significantly less expensive to have a single global censorship regime and just go along with foreign censorship requests. Facebook complied with Biden administration demands to censor because it needed Biden’s help in dealing with European censorship officials. And the Brazilian government forced Elon Musk to continue censoring the Brazilian people after it froze Starlink’s assets. And Public has discovered that the Stanford Cyber Policy Center, which is led by Obama’s former ambassador to Russia, Michael McFaul, is at the heart of a new, secretive, and possibly illegal censorship initiative that appears even more ambitious than the one Obama proposed in 2022. On September 24, the Cyber Policy Center hosted a secret dinner between its leaders and top censorship officials from Europe, UK, Brazil, California and Australia. The meeting was titled “Compliance and Enforcement in a Rapidly Evolving Landscape.” Frank McCourt, the same person behind the Stanford Internet Observatory, financed the gathering through his “Project Liberty Institute,” (PLI), toward which he gave $500 million to “strengthen democracy” and “foster responsible technology.” Public emailed all 21 participants and organizers and only heard from four, PLI, the Australian government, the UK government, and the European Union, which declined to comment because, even though Public gave it over 24 hours, a spokesperson said, “We would need several days.” The UK government said, “The legal framework gives Ofcom power to enforce the duties in the Act which are related to securing protections for people in the UK; it does not give Ofcom powers to enforce under any other legal regimes…. Ofcom has always engaged with various international forums and networks across all of the sectors we regulate, including online safety, spectrum, telecommunications, post, and broadcast and media. Regulators around the world regularly exchange insights, experience, and best practice.” A spokesperson for PLI said it “has made unrestricted gifts to several academic research programs, including Stanford University” and that “PLI does not receive funding from governments, intergovernmental organizations, or large technology companies.” But PLI’s own policy “blueprint” reveals that it is demanding a single total global censorship regime and intends to use the EU’s market power, known as the “Brussels effect,” to force big tech companies to comply. The blueprint calls for governments to “Recommit to a Single, Global Internet,” with “regulatory interoperability and oversight, to achieve a single unified market” and use the large size of the EU market to “drive bilateral and multilateral agendas to formally enshrine reciprocal guarantees.” A spokesperson for the Australian government said, “Whilst in attendance at Stanford for the 2-day conference, some attendees, including trust and safety researchers, industry, civil society, and government representatives, were also invited to attend an informal evening roundtable event organised by Stanford University entitled, ‘Compliance and Enforcement in a Rapidly Evolving Landscape.’ This roundtable did not involve any discussion of compliance coordination or regulatory information sharing.” The Australian spokesperson claimed that “eSafety has no role in regulating hate speech or disinformation. eSafety has no remit or interest in regulating the affairs of other nations, nor does it have any role in diplomatic, trade or other government-to-government relations.” But it also said, “As the internet is global and functions irrespective of national borders, by necessity eSafety collaborates with law enforcement, other government agencies, and non-government partners around the world, including in the United States.” The leaked agenda’s stated purpose was to “discuss the state of compliance and enforcement” in order to “identify where data, research, and expertise can enable more effective compliance with and enforcement of existing policy.” Much of the following two days of the public conference were focused on coordinating government censorship (“regulation”) of social media platforms, and the other nations that attended the meeting are all intensively involved in censoring their citizens and US tech companies. And, the head of Australia’s eSafety, Julie Inman-Grant, who was a keynote speaker at Stanford’s foreign censorship meeting, is also the head of a global government censorship network that serves as forum, she told the World Economic Forum, “to help us coordinate, build capacity and do just that…. We use the tools that we have, and can be effective, but we know we’re going to be, go, much further, when we work together with other like-minded independent statutory authorities around the globe.” As such, the people who are demanding censorship are once again spreading disinformation about what they are doing. All of this is happening in a context of global censorship intensifying. The UK government arrests 30 people per day for “offensive” social media posts, is attempting to censor 4Chan, which has no servers in the UK, and will mandate digital IDs for employment, which may give unprecedented control to politicians and bureaucrats to censor. The Brazilian government has, for year,s been censoring journalists and policymakers, incarcerating people for legal social media content, and threatening prosecution of journalists, including this author. And several European nations are censoring and arresting their citizens, preventing opposition political candidates from running for office, and preparing to implement digital IDs. Why did Stanford Cyber Policy Center hold this meeting, what is its strategy for global censorship? Who leaked the agenda to Public and why? And what can be done to stop Stanford, Brazil, Australia, the EU and others from realizing their totalitarian censorial vision?

Greetings, global pioneers! Happy Saturday!🌹🌹🌹 I hope this message finds you well and in high spirits. This Saturday, I encourage you to reflect on all the good things life offers. Spend time with your loved ones, enjoy moments of rest, and cherish the blessings you have. Remember that this is the foundation upon which Pi Network was built a community that values love, support, and hard work. As pioneers, we can significantly impact and achieve financial stability while supporting the Pi community. Finding a job is an excellent way to ensure financial stability and not expect to sell Pi. It is important to understand that solely focusing on completing the KYC process and exchanging Pi to fiat currency, without having a job, can lead to feelings of anxiety and depression. Additionally, selling Pi will not solve any financial difficulties and may cause you to miss out on potential wealth opportunities. As a suggestion, all global pioneers should secure a job before the launch of OM. If you are unable to find a permanent job, consider finding a temporary job, especially in the next 3-6 months. By working during this period and refraining from selling Pi, we can speed up the KYC and migration process, ultimately leading to the launch of OM.✌️✌️✌️✌️ In addition, spending more time with our family can bring harmony to our lives and help us gain their support, which is crucial in achieving our goals. Even small contributions to the Pi community, such as posting "thank you," "I support GCV," "I love Pi Network," or "we are a big family and we support each other," can go a long way in making a difference. If you don't understand why we support GCV, take your time to read and observe instead of posting negative comments. Remember, most pioneers catch up and support each other, so if you missed the class, don't worry, and learn from others who did well. Let's work together and make a difference while achieving our goals. In my previous post, I emphasized the importance of having a strategy and tactics to help you manage your group and community efficiently without wasting too much time. To ensure that your group runs smoothly, it's crucial to establish a sense of unity and ground rules. Remember, the group is not a platform to post anything and everything, especially fake news and misleading information. Mutual respect is non-negotiable, and any attack or smear will not be tolerated. Only share information about GCV education and activities. By following the guidelines provided, you can manage your group efficiently with just half an hour of effort each day. As a group owner or moderator, it is your responsibility to ensure that pioneers study in the correct direction. Please refrain from using fake news to attract and paralyze pioneers, as it will only cause anxiety and hatred towards Pi Network. Education is a top priority. But what exactly is education? In the context of Pi Network, education means helping pioneers understand what Pi Network is and why it has not taken the same steps as Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. Pi Network's mission is to resolve technology, financial, and currency problems and apply these benefits in our daily lives. It's important that all pioneers pay attention and not just look at the exchange market. While exchange markets can benefit some investors, they can also lead to significant losses. If you read what Dr. Nicolas has said, you will understand why he has invested so much money, almost a decade, into Pi Network as a real blockchain technology to help our world and society. He cannot achieve this goal without the support of all 50 million pioneers. It's important that we work together to make Pi Network a success. The following is a set of recommendations for pioneers interested in GCV . Our first step should be to understand why we need $314,159 and what measures pioneers should undertake to achieve this goal. To succeed, pioneers should make use of easily accessible resources and avoid unnecessary expenditures and risks. In this context, I recommend that pioneers develop the skills necessary to become self-learners, given the wealth of information available on my Twitter. I have received many questions about GCV from pioneers through Twitter. It can be overwhelming to respond to each one individually, especially when I have my daily work to do. I advised pioneers to become self-learners and cultivate patience and perseverance in studying. It's important to take the time to learn and understand things on your own, and not solely rely on others for answers. I would like to acknowledge the suggestions of Canadian merchant Mengmiao for the creation of the website OrientalPurpleLotus, which serves as a platform to share my articles and videos. This website will enable global pioneers to access my posts with greater ease. I will publish the website when it is ready. I apologize for being unable to respond to all of the private messages I receive from pioneers. While I act as a GCV ambassador focused on education, I do not have the capacity to act as a global community leader. For information on specific regions, I advise pioneers to consult their respective community leaders. It is pivotal to emphasize the importance of mutual trust and support in achieving success, and I urge pioneers to refrain from attacking one another. I am elated to witness the success of the Malaysia Community led by Mr. Patrick and other exceptional community leaders in organizing the Xin Shan Barter support GCV event yesterday. The event drew around 500 pioneers from Singapore, Indonesia, Taiwan, Vietnam, and mainland China, generating thousands of GCV data. I extend my gratitude to the Malaysia community for their dedication to GCV education and barter support. Additionally, I commend the Barter organizers and merchants for their generous support and hard work. Their contributions are an inspiration to all global pioneers to learn from their success.✌️✌️✌️✌️👍👍👍 I look forward to the Philippine community's upcoming barter event on Mar. 10th., which will be led by Ms. Lumari and other outstanding community leaders. I express my gratitude to them and extend my best wishes for a successful event.👏👏👏 I encourage all pioneers to join my GCV group, enabling them to share information with their respective groups. The global GCV group and the Chinese GCV group two such communities. This message is coming to you from my cozy office, where I am surrounded by beautiful music and fragrant candles. I will continue to share Malaysia's fantastic barter videos and photos with you and post speeches from myself and other Chinese community leaders. Stay tuned... Doris Yin 🪷🪷🪷

2017 Capitulation Tour ⚔️ The plan to save the world has been in the making for many years. To the casual onlooker, the outworking of that plan may have looked a whole lot more sinister. This plan required precision and had to be designed carefully. It was the only way to stop the incredible crimes being carried out around the world. These crimes involved the children. It had to stop. And… stop it did. Follow through as The Q White Hat Military Alliance With The Commander in Chief takes down one world leader after another. Sometimes he managed whole groups at one time. I thank Charlie Freak for the information given on his video. View below. Before we get into this post, let’s make sure we understand the meaning of the word ‘capitulate’ taken from the Merriam-Webster Dictionary: Definition of ‘capitulate‘ intransitive verb a: to surrender, often after negotiation of terms The enemy was forced to capitulate unconditionally. b: to cease resisting : ACQUIESCE The company capitulated to the labor union to avoid a strike. CAPITULATE stresses the fact of ending all resistance and may imply either a coming to terms (as with an adversary) or hopelessness in the face of an irresistible opposing force. Some Synonyms for ‘capitulate’ bow, concede, give in, knuckle under, quit, relent, submit, succumb, surrender, yield Why is this important? It’s important because this is exactly what the heads of each country around the world did when faced with dossiers of factual information about their ‘misdemeanors’. When 🎖️The Commander In Chief 🎖️was inaugurated, there was something keeping him busy for about 18 months. During that time he traveled the world visiting the country heads. On arrival, he presented them with huge dossiers: Definition of ‘dossier‘ Taken from Merriam-Webster Dictionary A file containing detailed records on a particular person or subject. Examples: The patient’s medical dossier Police began compiling a dossier on him. These huge dossiers contained damning information against the recipients. More often than not, the information related to one or more of the following: ▶️Human Trafficking ▶️Satanic Rituals ▶️Pedophilia ▶️Sex Trafficking Regarding children (Notice: I tried to use these words in a different order but continually ended up with an error/warning that wouldn’t allow it! Interesting!) and other abominations! A choice: To capitulate to President Trump. Or refuse to concede and therefore be arrested on the spot! Q plan to save the world It’s important that you realise that this is not just President Trump’s plan alone. There is a complete team of White Hats (good people who only want good for this world) working alongside him. He acts as the face to these people, and was chosen because of his tenacity and determination to see a job through to the end. Every country, because of the sheer amount of damning evidence against them, capitulated. It happened either immediately, or by the next morning, after they had had time to peruse the contents. Step #1 Saudi Arabia🏳️⤵️ (July 2017) During President Trump’s visit, the Saudi’s capitulated to him. They had to show everyone else that they had done so: They had just performed the Sword Dance. Only the King is allowed to hold the sword during the Sword Dance Ritual, but here we see it being held by President Trump. That was the sign. The new Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (now King) works very closely with President Trump and Team in aiding to drain the swamp. Step #2 Israel🏳️⤵️ Some of the Saudi’s then went with President Trump to his next destination. They were earning points towards their own salvation, so they wouldn’t be as harshly punished as they could have been. These Saudi’s, because of the capitulation, are now a part of the White Hats, helping ferret out others they know are involved in the same kind of abominations. The Israelite’s really balked at what President Trump was saying. It took an extra day before they finally gave in. They were the hardest country of all. How do we know they capitulated? That was when they agreed to allow the movement of U.S.A’s embassy to Jerusalem. This symbolizes who is in power in Israel. It was a symbolic act. Step #3 – Vatican City🏳️⤵️ His next move, a few days later, was to turns up at the Vatican to see Pope Francis. The dossier they had was so very huge! Vatican – Pope Francis (very sad) capitulates to President Trump (very happy)! Why did they have to concede? Actually, there were many reasons why, but that’s a story for another time. Please do your own research. The Pope would certainly not have surrendered unless the evidence against him and the church was solid and true! The plan to save the world from this evil stranglehold: Step #4 – Brussels European Parliament for the EU NATO 🏳️ President Trump called everyone together, then he purposefully arrived late, causing them to sweat it out as to what was going on! He walked in late and threw the big folder on the table. He said “We have it all!” In a very short time, they all capitulated! In the days after this, the EU backed down on Brexit, and other issues were taken care of. From this point on, the United States no longer paid for NATO. He told them they could now pay. They obeyed, because now he was in charge! Trump’s visit to Brussels paid off well… they were all there! All these officials would not have capitulated if the evidence against them wasn’t as solid as a rock. Step #5 CEO's From Major Corparations 🏳️ Google Twitter Microsoft Apple Facebook Black Rock Vanguard etc These people are all minions, or puppets, for the New World Order (One World Government). He showed them all the documentation the NSA (National Security Agency) had against them. Bin Salman said they either come onboard and play for Team Trump, (as he is in total control of these corporations), or declass! All of the information would be declassified, one by one, and each one of them would be shown to the masses as a child-murderer! They all capitulated! 🏳️ Bin Salman sees Jack Dorsey (Twitter) Bin Salman sees Mark Zuckerberg (Facebook) The interesting thing is that President Trump is the owner of all these Media outlets now, even though it’s kept quiet. All the troubles people experience with them today is not because of these ‘heads’. It’s because President Trump is trying to get us all to see what these people have been up to… and to take a stand! Interesting Note: It’s the same with each country. He wants the people within the country to see just how bad their leaders were… and to take a stand against them. Gradually it’s happening, as more and more people take to the streets in peaceful protests etc. Asian Tour (November 2017) Step #6 Japan🏳️⤵️ This is the symbolic gesture where President Trump presents the winner’s trophy. This is done only by the highest figure in the land! Japan is now in submission to President Trump, the NSA and the *Q* Team. Step #7 South Korea/North Korea 🏳️⤵️ One of the biggest procurers of Adrenochrome has always been Asia, and South East Asia. They were deeply involved with Hollywood and Washington DC politicians. These people needed children for their drugs and have leaned heavily on the South East Asian governments. It’s been going on for many years. As he showed them all the documents, and because they knew their crimes were capital punishment acts, they all capitulated. In secret, he went to the North Korean border and began his peace talks with Kim Jong-un. Step #8 China🏳️⤵️ Soon after President Trump became president, the Chinese president paid him a visit. This was largely ignored by the mainstream media. Chinese President Xi Jinping vists Trump. In the Forbidden City at Trump’s request. The method used by China to show they had surrended to Trump was to allow him into the Forbidden City. By the Chinese president allowing this, it is bigger than we can possibly understand or imagine! One of the biggest surprises was to learn how the Chinese wanted communism kicked out of their country! They met Trump with open arms. Many terrible things were going on in China. Step #9 Vietnam 🏳️⤵️ In a very public ceremony, President Trump was placed slightly in front of the Vietnamese president, and to the right. The Vietnamese promised to stop their participation in procuring children, human tracking and such-like. They gave in easily. Step #10 Davos, Switzerland🏳️⤵️ (Early January, 2018) President Trump called this meeting in Davos, Switzerland. It contained the ‘Who’s Who’ of all the major companies, including George Soros. Much evil was in attendance. Remember, President Trump was outworking his plan to save the world! All these people were all presented with envelopes the day before. At the meeting above, they were given folders which stated all the NSA information collected on them. Underneath these mountains were a great many very deep tunnels. It was a very brave move by President Trump to even go there. He so easily could have disappeared forever ‘down below’! But of-course, he wouldn’t have gone there alone. They very quickly capitulated, after a night of sweating it out. They were told they would be made public, one by one, with all they had done if they didn’t surrender. Step #11 India Prime Minister of India🏳️⤵️ … Narendra Modi, after capitulating to Trump. He was the first of many Prime Ministers to hold hands in such a way that suggested their hands were tied… It said: ‘I’m sorry, my hands are tied.’ Central America Step #12🏳️⤵️ Mexico President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrado (AMLO) of Mexico really resisted, but finally surrendered to Trump. Step #13 The rest of the Central American Countries After Mexico, 🏳️⤵️ he went to all the rest of the countries in Central America. They all did as they had to. Once again, they all held their wrists together as if they were being bound and forced into doing it. In a way they were… capitulate and help Team Trump, or be exposed and receive the capital punishment immediately. Step #14 Brazil🏳️⤵️ President Jair Bolsonaro They held a public meeting where once again this president held his wrists together in submission. One of the first acts of Bolsonara was to arrest ‘John of God’ who was running one of the largest child-trafficking rings. Note: This is the kind of thing all the Presidents/Prime Ministers did in all the countries around the world. They arranged the arrest of known pedophilia people within their country. Step #15 Argentina 🏳️⤵️ President Mauricio Macri left standing alone on the stage. President Trump makes a power move showing he believed him to be the scum of the earth! Step #16 Canada 🏳️⤵️ Prime Minister Justin Trudeau capitulated with his hands clasped together as if he were in handcuffs. Step # 17 Germany🏳️⤵️ Chancellor Angela Merkel capitulated Step #18 France🏳️⤵️ President Emmanuel Macron submitted. President Trump made a show of him because he was a real Adrenochromer! Step #19 England🏳️⤵️ Prime Minister Teresa May Here she is crying. Not only because of all the dirt they had on her, but because President Trump was able to inform her that the Phoneticians were planning to assassinate her. Their reason was to be able to put Boris Johnson in. Boris Johnson is a strong character who may simply be playing a role for the White Hats. Not sure…. time will tell. President Trump appears to act extremely rudely with the Queen. He took no care where he walked. This was deliberate and showed the capitulation. Step #20 Russia🏳️⤵️ President Vladimir Putin As he famously said ‘The ball is in your court now!’ This reference meant that they were now working for Trump. The ball also had reference to Adrenochrome. So there you have it. Not every country is mentioned in Charlie’s video, including Australia and New Zealand… but the truth is, PT didn’t stop until all the world leaders were in agreement to leave behind the filthy use of the little children of this world. All those who did participate in it will either receive capital punishment (death sentence) or spend the rest of their lives inn an inescapable prison.
