@RaveDAO The whole team together with largest CEXes should be reported to authorities and regulators and investigated. This is truly for jail. So many wrecked traders/investors because of blatant manipulation by RAVE team and associates and CEXes who are listing shits like this knowingly
BREAKING: Iran’s Parliament Speaker just threatened every government in the world, sovereign fund, and institution on Earth that holds US Treasury bonds.
Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, the IRGC-aligned hardliner who is now the most visible wartime leader in Iran while Mojtaba Khamenei has not been seen for 24 days, posted on X: “Alongside military bases, those financial entities that finance the US military budget are legitimate targets. US treasury bonds are soaked in Iranians’ blood. Purchase them, and you purchase a strike on your HQ and assets. We monitor your portfolios. This is your final notice.”
Read that again. He did not threaten military bases. He threatened bond holders. He declared the financial infrastructure that funds the American war machine a legitimate military target. He claimed Iran is monitoring portfolios in real time. And he issued a “final notice” to every entity financing the Pentagon’s $200 billion supplemental request.
Japan holds $1.1 trillion in US Treasuries. China holds $770 billion. The United Kingdom holds $690 billion. Luxembourg, the Cayman Islands, Canada, Belgium, Ireland, Switzerland, and Taiwan are all in the top fifteen. Ghalibaf just told every one of them: your Treasury holdings make your headquarters a target.
This is not a bluff. It is not operational either. Iran cannot strike the Bank of Japan. Iran cannot hit the Cayman Islands. The threat is psywar, and the psywar is aimed at the one mechanism that matters: the next Treasury auction. If sovereign funds hesitate at the margin, yields rise. If yields rise, US borrowing costs increase. If borrowing costs increase, the $200 billion war supplemental becomes more expensive. The threat does not need to be executed. It needs to be believed by enough participants in a single bond auction to move the yield curve by a few basis points. A few basis points on $36 trillion in outstanding US debt is billions in additional annual interest.
This is the war’s third front. The first front is kinetic: missiles, drones, and 100-munition strikes on Tehran. The second front is energy: the Strait of Hormuz, the insurance market, the fertiliser blockade, the helium bottleneck. The third front is financial: Treasury bonds as a weapon, de-dollarisation as a strategy, and portfolio surveillance as a threat.
Iran has lost 70 percent of its ballistic launchers. It has lost its navy. Its air force is destroyed. Its supreme leader has not been seen. Its internet has been dark for 504 hours. And from inside that darkness, its parliament speaker just told the world that buying American debt makes you a combatant. The country being bombed into the Stone Age is threatening to destabilise the currency of the country doing the bombing. The weapon is not a missile. The weapon is a sentence on X that raises the risk premium on $36 trillion in sovereign debt.
The PBOC added gold for the 16th consecutive month. USD share of global reserves has fallen to 56.9 percent from 71 percent in 2000. Foreign ownership of US Treasuries has dropped to 30 percent from a 50 percent peak. The de-dollarisation was already underway. Ghalibaf just gave it a wartime accelerant.
Bonds as battlefield. Portfolios as targets. Yields as weapons. The war just went from the strait to the spreadsheet.

If you care about Crypto’s future you should withdraw your funds off @binance ASAP
We gave 1 man far too much power and he turned out to be a psychopath.
The only way forward for us is a mass migration to open and transparent platforms like @HyperliquidX

@TechCharts Hi Aksel, appreciate this.
Do you use the same approach for altcoins or just BTC?
What are your most proven bullish/bearish setups that you act on?
Haven’t seen anyone else talk about this yet, so I wanted to bring up an alarming governance vote by World Liberty Fi this month that appears to be the start of a slow extraction of value from WLFI holders by the team:
What you see above appears to be a rigged vote, where the majority of top voters are indicated to be team wallets or strategic partner wallets by Bubble Maps. This is in contrast to the real voters lower in the screenshot, who have all been locked from accessing their WLFI tokens since TGE, and unable to vote on an unlock until the team allows it.
Instead, the team created the USD1 growth proposal shown here, which at first glance reads as fairly mundane. But it raises the question: why would the team go out of their way to force this vote through, instead of voting on the WLFI token unlock that the majority of holders are asking for?
The real motivation becomes clear when you recall the fine print that WLFI holders are not entitled to ANY protocol revenue at all. According to the WLFI Gold Paper on the World Liberty Fi official website, 75% of protocol revenue goes to the Trump family, and 25% goes to the Witkoff family:
It’s actually as crazy as it sounds: the team is forcing a vote to sell WLFI tokens at the expense of locked holders, in order to fund protocol revenue that goes only to themselves.
This vote was actually failing by the time it reached quorum with a majority of votes rejecting the proposal, until the team / partners forced the vote through. For context, the WLFI team is allocated 33.5% of all tokens and strategic partners another 5.85%, while the public sale was allocated only 20%.
Following the vote, we can see fresh transfers such as this one of 500 million WLFI tokens to Jump trading, while investor WLFI allocations remain forcibly locked:
Now that WLFI emissions are increasing, it's difficult to see the intrinsic value behind a 17 billion dollar token that has no real governance power, no revenue share, and new foundation sell pressure occurring for their own benefit. I have held short positions on WLFI on and off since pre-market prices above 0.34, and believe it will continue to drop over a longer timeframe due to dilution, intentional extraction, and other factors related to Trump's final term in office.
🔥 UPDATE: Uniswap's Unification proposal passes with overwhelming support.
100M UNI tokens will be burned, fee switches activated, and frontend fees removed after a 2-day timelock.
@NecoKronos@MMT_Official_ What? But you said on stream yesterday if it doesn't hold level (4h? don't know which one exactly) we are gonna revisit $80k for sure, and it didn't hold.
@ZeroHedge_ No, it wasn‘t clear from the chart. If you post it say it bluntly in the same post, specially if it looks like long signal. Don‘t be one of those that post cryptic shit pick side after the price develops in one direction. Why post this now after price slided, and not 2d ago
