The International Monetary Fund Lays The Groundwork For Global Wealth Confiscation

Ugly stuff. Why don't they just take everything alltogether? At least it would save us from doing all the paperwork ...

Bitcoin not affected? Hope not.

It would be good to have one website, maybe in the Bitcoin wiki to have all the international wire-transfer fees summed up by country and by bank, compared to Bitcoin.

Could someone create such a page?

Anyone could.

The funny part is you then still have to wait about a week for the money to actually be transferred. Its numbers for god's sake, what takes so long? I don't even know why its so slow TBH.

Because of the so-called "no-bill bill" passed in 1998, US dollar notes may not be exported from the US. I think they were classified as ammunition or something to that effect. For that reason, to transfer USD internationally across US borders without having to struggle with the legal implications of smuggling war material, a bank has to convert the money into quarters before shipping overseas.

This is getting blown way out of proportion.

A news item get blown out of proportion?! On THIS forum of all places?! I never thought I'd live to see the day...

Yes but at the same time, a high constant fee is a good way to lock "most" people out but keep it legal for you and your pals (provided you are rich or funded by the rich). 

For example, from reading these forums I learned the term "dollar denominated account" a few months ago.  So I googled around found just one bank (UBS) that offered foreign currency denominated accounts.  I thought it might be a good idea to diversify a bit into euros, yuan, etc.  Called them up -- not going to happen unless I was going to deposit > 1 million USD.  Too much overhead and paperwork...

Ironically, there's a trick that lets you do it in a small way with the company we love-to-hate: Paypal.  If someone sends you money you can choose to hold it in the currency it was sent...

Schwab, Fidelity, and HSBC are a few examples of banks that offer multi-denominated accounts in the USA.

All require no minimum or a small minimum (I think HSBC is $5000, fidelity and schwab are $0 minimum).

Great! Thx I should have asked you guys a long time ago...

Just open an Interactive Brokers account (and I imagine there are many other stock brokers who offer this). You'll only need $10k (less if you're 26 and under).
