Iran is not fighting the US Navy. They’re fighting the US bond market, the strategic petroleum reserve, and the giant and growing pile of treasury debt.
I’m no macro analyst so take what I say with a grain of salt, but it seems China has been effectively suppressing the oil market by using their own enormous reserves and dialing back domestic consumption through policy. I think the big game is who can take more pain: the US or China.
I don’t know the dynamics of how it would play out, but if the US SPR runs out before Chinas and at the same time they moved to settle oil trade in gold or something tied to gold, wouldn’t that spike the oil price and lead to an inflation cycle in the US and effectively neuter our ability to maintain our empire?

Love & Hard Money is my podcast about Bitcoin and ethics.
I wrote a kids book that you can only buy with Bitcoin called The Winds Of Uncertainty. You can buy it from my website. The e-book and a video of me reading it aloud are free.

Whatever crisis happens next in the US is a psyop or a false flag.
Don’t fall for it.

This article seems to miss what feels obvious to me. Trump has redirected so much of the military to his adventures in Persia that running a full drill in S. Korea would result in a national embarrassment. The easier route is to say: those guys aren’t our friends anymore…we’re going to dial back the drills.
If I’m right, no one who matters on the world stage will misread the signal: the US is now incapable of upholding its commitments to allies and can no longer maintain global order.
Not great.

What Bitcoin Did · Episode
You guys remember when Obama tried to give poor people free cell phones under the banner of equal access?
The idea lands different after a decade of flock cameras and palentir.
“If you cannot afford your own surveillance device, one will be provided for you.”


Boomers:
-Still “working” but hasn’t created any economic value in decades.
-Has at least one major surgery scheduled in the next year.
-Either broke, or owns multiple homes and actively “plays” the stock market.
-Even the broke ones manage multiple vacations per year.


Maybe Fauci was just trying to kill off all the boomers and fat people so millennials could keep enjoooyang the Medicare/Social Security ponzi for a few more decades? You ever think of that?


🚨 New Episode of Love & Hard Money 🚨
This week we cover the nature of evil, how it is financed/incentivized and where it shows up in the world.
We consider the implications for Bitcoin. If Bitcoin really does separate money from state and if money and state are the tools of evil, doesn’t it follow that we have a fight in front of us?
Are you ready for it?


As I watch the way the US government has behaved in Iran, I am glad we don’t have a Clarity or a real SBR. Both would serve to extend the empire of debt and war further into the future.
Let the current institutions die. Stay out of the way the best you can. Pick up the pieces in a decade.
