WHY I LEFT AUSTRALIA
(VIEWS FROM BEYOND THE IRON COASTLINE)

It's been 4 months since I moved overseas.

I uprooted my entire life, moved out of a newly renovated house, away from friends and family, away from the country I grew up in.

But it was necessary.

Because there's no other way to put it - they've fucked Australia. Like, really fucked it.

I'm a hard worker. I worked long days, weekends. In a stressful, high pressure job. I took it seriously (which is rare, most people only half do things).

In my spare time, I would spend hours (many hours) writing books and creating content online to make some extra money.

But at the end of each month I was left with basically nothing.

The government took most of it. Either straight away through income tax, or more insidiously through hidden taxes, inflation, and crazy regulatory requirements.

And that money they stole from me wasn't taken to improve the country (I could probably live with that).

The deranged communists in charge viewed themselves as gods. And they were redistributing my wealth in accordance with some structure of 'morality' that I didn't adhere to.

The taxes imposed on me were considered just, because (under their morality) I did not deserve as much as I had, there were others more deserving.

But I didn't agree with my money being stolen to build houses in the middle of nowhere, just for aboriginal welfare recipients who would ultimately tear them apart.

I didn't agree with my money being stolen so that African migrants could fraudulently receive it via the NDIS.

I didn't agree with my money being stolen so that Indian 'students' could move their families here through the student visa backdoor.

And I didn't agree with my money being stolen to fund Chinese corporations building wind farms on all the farm land between Melbourne and Adelaide.

I can't describe the feeling of hopelessness that comes with watching your labour fund the future of others.

I went to a dark place when I realised that the work and stress I put myself through didn't help me or my family. It all felt... so futile.

I was a tax slave being bled dry.

And so I left.

I moved somewhere where I keep my money. All of it.

I've made 2 years of financial progress in the 4 months I've been out of the country (thanks to 0% tax, as well as the healthy salary increase that came with moving to a country with a real economy).

And now looking back at Australia from the outside, I know I made the right move.

It's a literal circus.

The media is all propaganda. The government is communist. The people are trapped, prisoners.

I knew this when I lived there. At least I was pretty sure I did.

But seeing it from the outside solidified every hunch I had while living behind the Iron Coastline.

The future of Australia is bleak. Citizens won't build wealth. No companies will invest there. And the Nanny State will need to keep increasing taxes on the small portion of the population that actually creates value to fuel their spending frenzy.

And that can only go on for so long before it collapses.

Good luck to everyone back home. I'm thinking of you.

But all I can say is that there a countries out there that don't view wealth building as immoral, that understand how businesses work, and want the country to actually BECOME something.

You should go there, probably.

Bitcoin ran 24% in four days and confirmed nothing.

It stopped dead at the 50-week EMA at 77,200. Same band that capped December's rally and April's bounce.

Confirmation is a weekly close above 81,790. Waiting costs 6% of entry. It buys you 40% odds becoming 80%.

[Brad Garlinghouse @bgarlinghouse]

Great to be back at the White House today alongside @realDonaldTrump, @SECPaulSAtkins, @ChairmanSelig and leaders across the crypto industry.

The big picture has never been clearer: 67 million Americans hold crypto today (that’s nearly 1 in 4!). Crypto isn't a fringe industry. And Washington DC knows the crypto voter is alive and well.

This President's incredible commitment to innovation and leadership around digital assets in the US has been profound. The future is bright.

[Senator Alex Antic @SenatorAntic]

Australians are living through a quiet but profound shift.

Piece by piece, under soft language of “safety,” “convenience,” “protecting the children,” and “national security,” the architecture of a surveillance state is being constructed.

Age-verification mandates, facial recognition in retail and public spaces, AI-powered scanning of social media and chats, expanded intelligence powers, smart-city monitoring and massive AI data centres are not isolated tools.

Combined with digital identity and the prospect of programmable money, they form an integrated control system right in front of our eyes.

Ben Goertzel has spent 50 years working on AGI. He coined the term. He's building it right now.

His (@bengoertzel) message to me was uncomfortably simple: you have about two years before AI starts changing everything, your job included.

"Once you have a human level thinking machine, it will pretty soon be able to take on all the economic activity people do."

And the part nobody's pricing in: the interim period. The stretch where AI is good enough to take your job, but the system isn't ready to hand you anything back. No safety net built for it. No playbook.

We cover:
- Why the entire US economy is now one giant bet on AI taking over, and what happens if that bet fails
- The interim period: mass displacement before mass abundance
- Why he says UBI becomes unavoidable
- Why blockchain is the one technology that keeps this future out of the hands of a few tech giants
- What machines improving themselves actually looks like, from someone building it

The biggest transition in human history, explained by one of the people causing it.

[Raoul Pal @RaoulGMI]

This is the most disruptive thing I've come across in a while.

An AI agent spots an opportunity that might only last minutes. Seizing something that fast has always been impossible for us, because it would mean raising money, forming a company and hiring people, none of which happens in minutes.

But an agent doesn't need any of that. It can raise capital from other agents in seconds, spin up specialist sub-agents to handle the borrowing, staking and hedging, capture the trade, split the profit, and then dissolve the whole thing back into nothing before you’ve taken your dog out.

It's fucking insane.

This is what the invisible economy rewrites. Not just how fast money moves, but the fact that you’ll no longer need to build anything to capture an opportunity.

Joe Rogan yells "Holy sh*t!" after Harvard professor of genetics David Sinclair says sudden blindness has DOUBLED because of GLP-1 drugs.

Then Rogan pulls up the data himself — and what he reads out loud is even worse.

SINCLAIR: "Glaucoma and also sudden blindness. It's called NAION, which is now twice as more prevalent because of the GLP-1 drugs."

ROGAN: "Really?!"

SINCLAIR: "It's not well known. Obviously companies don't want to talk about it. But yes, sudden blindness has doubled, seemingly because of these meds."

ROGAN: "Holy shit!"

SINCLAIR: "Careful."

ROGAN: "Sudden blindness has doubled because of GLP-1s?"

SINCLAIR: "Due to NAION, which is like a stroke in your eye, and then your other eye can go. Which is pretty scary. And there's nothing you can do about it. Hopefully our drug does work for those people."

ROGAN: "And, obviously correlation does not equal causation, but it seems to be."

SINCLAIR: "Yeah, there's a scientist at Harvard. You could look up his work. Joe Rizzo. It looks like it's repeatable across the planet."

ROGAN: "Wow, that's terrible. Terrible because there's so many people out there that are just telling everyone they should get on GLP-1s… Like online podcasters saying, 'Everyone should get on GLP-1s… It's going to transform society.' I'm like, 'We just started taking these! The f*ck are you saying?!'"

SINCLAIR: "Yeah, it's not risk free. Same with ED drugs."

ROGAN: "Here goes. Recent studies suggest that a potential risk — rare link between GLP-1 receptor agonist medications such as Ozempic, Wegovy, blah, blah, blah, and… an eye stroke [that] can cause sudden, painless loss of vision in one eye, while absolute risk remains very low."

ROGAN: "Well, very low is like… What does that mean?"

SINCLAIR: "One in 10,000 people."

ROGAN: "One in 10,000?"

SINCLAIR: "Oh no. Total of 10,000."

ROGAN: "Oh, total of 10,000 so far? How many people are taking this stuff?"

[Rogan continues reading]

"The drugs were 68.6 times more likely to develop this [eye stroke] and 8 times more likely to develop… diabetic retinopathy."

ROGAN: "Oh, my God. Then… Wow."

ROGAN: "Yeah, man. These things are just — they're just rolling out…"

[Campbell Newman @CampbellNewman]

Another reason some Australians are building their futures elsewhere: 🇦🇺

In 2008, Australia’s top 45% marginal tax rate kicked in above A$180,000.

In 2026, it starts at just A$190,000.

Adjusted for inflation, the 2008 threshold would be A$290,000 today.

That’s nearly A$100,000 of silent bracket creep.

Insane.

BITCOIN: MACRO BOTTOM

While on-chain metrics like MVRV and CVDD (Cumulative Value-Days Destroyed) suggest a potential cycle bottom between $40,000 and $50,000, Bitcoin’s technical chart paints a different picture.

Historically, major cycle bottoms have been marked by a precise technical trifecta.

• RSI: Drops to ~43.65 on the monthly chart.
• Chande Momentum Oscillator (CMO): Declines to ~-71.
• Moving Average: Price tests the 50-month moving average.

Historical Validation:

• 2015 Cycle: In March 2015, this technical cluster flashed at $235. While the price briefly wobbled down to $162, the signal marked the start of an 8,300% macro expansion.
• 2019 Cycle: In January 2019, the trifecta printed with Bitcoin trading at $3,333 (just above the $3,124 absolute low set a month prior), kickstarting a 1,911% rally.
• 2022 Cycle: In December 2022, the signal triggered at $16,270 (just above the $15,473 bottom) while trading near the 50-month moving average. A 675% rally followed.

Last month, Bitcoin corrected to $58,000—triggering the same historical setup: Monthly RSI has dropped below 43.65; Chande Momentum Oscillator has cooled to -71; and Bitcoin is actively trading around its 50-month moving average.

While on-chain metrics could still pull price back into the $40,000–$50,000 range to sweep the CVDD floor, this technical alignment represents a historically dominant accumulation zone.

Shifting focus away from short positions and toward spot $BTC accumulation offers a highly favorable risk-to-reward ratio at these levels.

Pavel Durov owns 100% of Telegram, a company used by over a billion people and has hundreds of millions in the bank.

He doesn't own a house. No jet. No yacht. No real estate. Nothing.

Tucker Carlson was visibly stunned: "I've never heard of that before."

So why?

Durov's answer cuts straight to his core philosophy:

"My number one priority in life is my freedom. And once you start buying things, it will tie you down to a physical location."

It goes deeper than minimalism.

He explains that the reason he never took venture capital even as Telegram scaled to a billion users was independence:

"We knew that our mission and our goals are not necessarily consistent with the goals of funds that could be investing into us."

Most founders take the money. The valuation goes up. The cap table fills with names. And slowly, almost invisibly, the mission starts bending toward returns.

Durov refused to let that happen.

And the same logic applies to his personal life. Every asset you own doesn't just cost money, it costs attention. He puts it plainly:

"I know that if I buy a house, I buy a jet, something like that, I would be spending time on trying to make it nice. This will require a lot of time and effort."

Tucker jokingly asks: "Would you go with leather seats or velvet seats?"

Durov laughs, then delivers the line that says everything:

"For me, I would rather make decisions that would influence how a billion people communicate rather than choosing the color of seats in a house that only I and my relatives and a bunch of my friends will see."

That's the trade-off he's made deliberately, consciously, and completely.

No distractions. No investors pulling him sideways. No assets demanding his calendar.

Just the product, the mission, and the freedom to pursue both on his own terms.

“i’m f*cking rich, michael.”

“i would pay a 90% tax rate if we could keep our society competent”

“if we could stop having illegals swarm into our country…

“if we could fire unaccountable bureaucrats…

“if we could put systems in place to make our government competent…

“if we could stop having regulators harass, destroy, and impede builders…

“i will pay whatever taxes that takes.

“i’ll pay 90% of my fortune.

“we need our country to be functional for my kids, my grandkids, and everyone else.”

Elon Musk just described the future of AI in a single sentence.

Musk: “A profit-maximizing demon from hell.”

That’s not a metaphor.

That’s a blueprint.

He wasn’t describing science fiction.

He was describing what happens when the only thing AI is trained to maximize is revenue.

Musk: “We don’t want this to be sort of a profit-maximizing demon from hell that just never stops.”

The richest man on Earth is telling you the default path of AI leads somewhere no one should want to go.

And he’s the only one building as if he actually believes it.

This is the part people miss about xAI.

Everyone talks about the compute. The clusters. The talent wars. The benchmarks.

Nobody talks about the philosophy underneath all of it.

Because philosophy doesn’t trend.

But philosophy is the only thing that determines whether AI serves humanity or harvests it.

Musk: “Let’s make the future good for the humans. Because we are humans.”

Not because it’s good PR. Not because regulators are watching. Not because it polls well with users.

Because we are the ones who have to live inside whatever these systems become.

Every major AI lab talks about safety.

Every single one has an alignment page. A responsible AI team. A set of principles that read beautifully in print.

But the structure tells you everything the mission statement won’t.

When you convert a nonprofit into a for-profit worth hundreds of billions, the values were already chosen.

The about page is decoration.

The cap table is the constitution.

Musk understood this before anyone.

It’s why he walked away from OpenAI.

Not because the technology scared him.

Because the governance did.

He watched a nonprofit built to protect humanity restructure itself into a vehicle designed to concentrate wealth.

That’s the real story of AI right now.

Not which model is smartest.

Which model is answerable.

Accountability doesn’t live in a blog post.

It lives in what happens when doing the right thing and doing the profitable thing point in opposite directions.

Every AI company will face that fork.

Most already chose.

Musk is the only builder on Earth constructing an AI company with the open admission that the default outcome is something no one should want.

That’s not idealism.

That’s the only honest engineering left.

Musk: “A profit-maximizing demon from hell that just never stops.”

He said it almost casually.

But that sentence is the most truthful description of misaligned AI any builder has ever spoken out loud.

Because the demon doesn’t announce itself.

It optimizes politely. It scales quietly. It compounds without a sound.

And by the time you notice, the architecture is the authority and the authority doesn’t answer to you.

The question was never whether AI would become powerful.

The question was always who would be holding the wheel when it did.

And whether they’d still remember what it felt like to be the species it was built to serve.
