When it comes to the crypto world, the smart move for the US government would be to pass clear and constructive crypto regulation and support the USDC stablecoin as much as possible for 2 important reasons: 1.

A vast new Euro Dollar (= offshore) market would develop as the Global South adopts dollar crypto rails instead of using their vastly inferior local fiat currencies 2. The parent company of USDC, Circle ..read more

Speculation is the art of exploiting distortions in financial markets for profit. Most often, such distortions are caused by government intervention in the natural, dynamic system that creates all the wealth on this planet: The free market. Today, I want to highlight one example from the history of Argentina. In March of 1976, military dictator Jorge Rafael Videla came to power. He  immediately appointed Alfredo Martínez de Hoz as Minister of Economy. Argentina’s economic minister José Alfredo Martínez de Hoz (left) and military dictator Jorge Rafael Videla (right) Martínez de Hoz was a ..read more

The crypto market looks bleak. The Blockchain Ecosystem is littered with corpses. Retail investors have been obliterated. And many big players that looked like market leaders, blew up in spectacular fashion. Most investors have either left the crypto arena, or are waiting for another leg down.

Here's why I'm extremely bullish on crypto in 2023. It’s typical for people to believe recent events will dictate how the f ..read more

Let me tell you about the biggest financial disaster you‘re going to see in your lifetime. It could start as early as 2023, but we‘ll definitely see it play out over the next few years. The US government finances itself in two ways. Through taxation and by issuing debt, typically in the form of treasuries and bonds. (There‘s a third way the government robs from you, the individual: Inflation courtesy of the Federal Reserve - which is neither federal, nor a reserve. It‘s privately owned by its member banks and there‘s nothing backing its fiat currency, the dollar. “Fiat“ is a Latin word meanin ..read more

The crypto world has no shortage of spectacular fraud cases. Most recently there was sociopath Scam Bankman-Fraud‘s FTX operation that caused billions of dollars of damage to both institutions and retail investors. We had the $4 billion ponzi scam OneCoin that added the face of "cryptoqueen" Ruja Ignatova to the FBI‘s ten most wanted list. Or take crypto fund 3 Arrows Capital. It once had assets in excess of $10 billion (rumored as high as $18 billion).

Nigeria is probably best known for its prolific scammers. The classic Nigerian scam has been around forever.

A dissident is someone disagreeing with something, typically an opinion or belief. Ubiquitous connectivity and digital technology have given rise to a new class of dissidents. They are the people that disagree with the status quo where they live but instead of whining and complaining, they take action. They simply pack up, and leave that troublesome place in search of greener pastures. These dissidents defect from a nation-state. Depending on how you count, there are at least 195 nation-states on this planet that you can choose from. Your initial location is simply an accident of birth. Often ..read more

The old world of pre-2020 is gone and it's never coming back. We are now in a historic transition period. This means there's a lot of danger to both your health and wealth. Sociopaths from Washington to Brussels to Davos to Beijing are dreaming of an authoritarian "New World Order". They want to turn you into a mind-controlled, bug-eating slave that owns nothing. Guess what? This future is also not going to happen. The entire system will get flushed and the old guard with it. The scamdemic with the push for a "Great Reset" has done a lot of damage but overall, it failed to bring about this "N ..read more
