>Does anyone have access to the world government dev environment

The banks with super admin privileges to create money in their databases do.




If everybody had an account with the central banks, sure. For now the SUs only have access to the major-banks sandbox, and playing around in this sandbox does nothing except cause asset inflation.


The 2008 bailout and subsequent legislation[1] indicates it is the major-banks (i.e. JP Morgan, BOA) which have the leverage to create money at will over the central-banks (i.e. the Fed). Hence the term "Too Big to Fail" -- de facto SUs.

Doesn't the major-banks' sandbox extend across the world to any person or government who accepts the dollar?

By "sandbox" I meant that the central banks dealt directly only with major banks, who benefit and profit from being at the top of the money-creation chain.


That's what I thought, I was using it as scope of influence as well
