The "iron and clay" mixture of the revived Roman Empire, indeed isn't remaining united just as we would expect from Daniel 2. Somehow these changes will lead to the 10 kings phase in development:
DUTCH right-wing Freedom Party has soared ahead to lead the polls ahead of the parliamentary elections.
The party, led by the controversial Geert Wilders, would beat prime minister Mark Rutte’s ruling conservative liberals if elections were held today.
The Freedom Party (PVV) can count on 29 seats out of the 150-seat chamber, according to the latest IPSOS poll, making it the largest party in the Netherlands.

In the space of one month the popularity of the PVV has surged with an increase of six seats.
Pollsters said the PVV’s populist stance has attracted voters.
The data suggests Eurosceptic Mr Wilders could become the Netherlands’ next prime minister, potentially spelling the end of Dutch membership of the EU.
Frustrations have grown with the current coalition government and an ongoing court trial involving Mr Wilders has boosted his support.

As physical currency around the world is increasingly phased out, the era where “cash is king” seems to be coming to an end. Countries like Indiaand South Korea have chosen to limit access to physical money by law, and others are beginning to test digital blockchains for their central banks.
The war on cash isn’t going to be waged overnight, and showdowns will continue in any country where citizens turn to alternatives like precious metals or decentralized cryptocurrencies. Although this transition may feel like a natural progression into the digital age, the real motivation to go cashless is downright sinister.
The unprecedented collusion between governments and central banks that occurred in 2008 led to bailouts, zero percent interest rates and quantitative easing on a scale never before seen in history. Those decisions, which were made under duress and in closed-door meetings, set the stage for this inevitable demise of paper money.

"Well, I was cooking for a customer, and we got a big jolt and he goes earthquake and I said, 'Yeah, it's a good one.'
