That stack of hundreds under your mattress? It’s not a safety net—it’s corpse bait. When Silicon Valley Bank imploded last year, the idiots lining up at ATMs became walking robbery targets. The smart players? They were draining accounts *without touching cash* while sipping espresso across the street. Banks want you panicking at the vault. Time to rob them back.
the Swiss “quiet exit” playbook
While Credit Suisse depositors queued like sheep, the sharks collateralized their balances into 3% loans. Borrowed against their own money. Converted debt into untraceable assets before the freeze hit. When the doors locked, they held gold titles, not worthless claim tickets.
Do this now:
Walk into your credit union. Demand a “secured share loan” against your savings. Take 70% as a cashier’s check payable to your Wyoming LLC. Convert it into postal money orders under $1,000 thresholds. Banks freeze deposits—not debt. Repay loans with hyperinflated dollars later.
the four pillars of bank run immunity
Pillar 1: pre-collateralization
Turn your savings into a weapon. Right now—while banks still pretend stability—lock in loans secured by your own deposits. Credit unions offer rates under 4% if you pledge balance as collateral. Draw funds as *cashier’s checks*, not cash. Made out to your LLC. Not your name.
Pillar 2: digital-to-physical arbitrage
Convert digits to real value without ever holding bills:
– Buy USPS money orders for $999 (no ID required)
– Launder Walmart gift cards through self-checkout returns
– Purchase Krugerrands via “business expense” loans
Physical gold bought with borrowed cash lives outside the system.
Pillar 3: the bunker account
Shift funds to institutions too small and politically connected to fail:
– Black churches’ credit unions
– Amish agricultural co-op banks
– Fishermen’s trust funds
These got bailed first in 2008. Your Chase account? Sacrificial lamb.
Pillar 4: phantom liquidity
Store 20% at bailment warehouses like Money Metals Depository. They issue debit cards spendable against your vaulted silver. When banks seize deposits, you’ll tap precious metals at gas pumps.
the Cyprus heist upgrade
Cyprus 2013: Laiki Bank stole 47.5% of deposits over €100k. ATM limits choked withdrawals. Modern fixes:
– Split funds across three neobanks (Revolut, N26, Wise)
– Hit casinos—not ATMs. Player’s cards get $10k+ “cash advances” while banks starve
– Overpay contractors. Demand post-collapse refunds in Monero
escaping the CBDC digital prison
When they lock accounts for “wrongthink,” you’ll need off-ramps:
Off-ramp 1: commodities laundering
Buy soybean futures. Textile hemp contracts. Anything traded outside digital rails.
Off-ramp 2: dark wallets
Convert to Monero via Bisq P2P. No KYC. No trace.
Off-ramp 3: offshore labor
Get paid in UAE dirhams through remote work contracts. Your employer won’t know you’re hiding from a central bank.
the 72-hour stress test
Day 1:
– Pull 30% as cashier’s checks to LLC

Day 2:
– Convert loan proceeds to gold coins
– Park 20% in crypto via Bitcoin ATM ($900/day limit)
Day 3:

Pass/fail metric: Can you access 70% of wealth *without cash or banker permission*? If not, you’re already bankrupt.
Your savings aren’t money. They’re hostages. Start negotiating.
