I've been told that the new $50 and $100 dollar bills have a tracking imprint that can be found by government satellites to locate large amounts of money being hoarded?
I wouldn’t know. I haven’t seen a $50 or $100 in years.
That’s why they bleach out $1 and $5 bills and print over them. They then check out as real bills.
The one dollar bill has no strip. The strips have the denomination of the bill printed on them. Ones are bleached for the paper, probably not really easy to pass though
Some tin foil will cover it ...
That only works if no one looks closely at the polyester strip. It has microprinting matching the bill denomination.
If you believe it, send all your money to me so they can’t track you. Trust me, it is your only way to be safe.
It would take quite a large value to make up a detectable pile. Here is a graphic similar to one I saw earlier this year.

If you only have a few million you shouldn’t have a problem stashing it in a few safes with your guns and other valuables. Now if your talking more than 100 million or so then the challenge is somewhat greater.
Just dandy!! Now everybody knows our secret and we will have to find another security measure. Loose lips sink ships.
What does it mean to “hoard” something?
The verification thread is polyester. PLASTIC...
Finding counterfeits made by bleaching is easy. Mainly because of poor printing quality. But also each bill has it’s own magnetic ink characteristics that doesn’t completely bleach away. Currency counter counterfeit detection is available to the public with equipment that detects ink. I was working at a major cash vault the day the new 20’s came out and we found counterfeits the next day.
Why would you hoard paper money, anywise?
Need a toilet paper-like trade item for after the collapse?
No, the strip in US money is not metallic. It is polyester.
Feel free to send me yours, I can still convert them to useful items. :-)
If anyone wants to send me their almost worthless paper money, pm me and i can get you an address pronto.
I forgot to add: the security strip is in a different place on each bill.
Of course, it depends on the recipient knowing what to look for.
They’re angry bills.
Yes, when the money becomes worthless Turbo Tax Timmy Geithner will become The Great Cornholio and will hunt down hoards of it to use as “TP for my bunghole”.
No, it’s the gold bullion that they are putting the tracking chips in.
