@DanBilzerian Money is created out of thin air by creating debt. The federal reserve facilitates loans to the global players. There always a counterparts taking on the debt, so it's not exactly the all powerful force making 100% of the money printing decisions, but it's the top dog.

Alexander Hamilton was:

-Caught in a sex scandal
-Blackmailed
-Challenged to a duel with a future president of the United States…
-before ultimately being killed in a duel by the vice president of the United States…

& he of all founding fathers, is the one the system chooses to lionize. Why?

He was pro big government and pro big bank.

That should tell you everything you need to know about the people in charge of teaching our children history.

George Washington was not the first president of our country, that was John Hancock. He was elected 251 years ago today. He would later become instrumental in ratifying the constitution. Without Hancock, there would be no declaration of independence, there would be no constitution, there would be no United States.

Now, why do you think public schools don’t teach that?

Charles Hoskinson: self proclaimed Bitcoin OG

Bitcoin devs are being dishonest. A hard fork is necessary to protect against quantum.

This means we may have to burn Satoshi’s coins along with anyone from 2013.

[Quantic @0xQuantic]

If you look at the data, you’ll notice we’re breaking TVL records almost every week. All organically, with strong demand for FXRP.

In the next phase, the focus is to prove a clear path for value capture for FLR, starting with lower inflation and fees accruing to FIRE.

[Quantic @0xQuantic]

Listen.

FLARE COULD BECOME ONE OF THE FIRST GENERAL-PURPOSE L1s TO IMPLEMENT PROTOCOL-DIRECTED BLOCK BUILDING WITH A GOVERNED MEV MANDATE TIED TO TOKEN ECONOMICS.

In simple terms, this means @FlareNetworks is not just trying to grow the network and hope FLR benefits indirectly.

It is proposing a system where part of the value normally extracted through block building, arbitrage, and liquidations can be captured at the protocol level and redirected back into the network’s economics.

On most networks, more activity does not automatically mean stronger token economics.

The chain gets used, value is created, but a meaningful part of that value leaks to external actors while the token still depends heavily on emissions and future expectations.

What Flare is proposing is much more ambitious.

If activity on the network grows, the goal is for more of that value to be captured through fees, MEV, and other protocol revenues, then routed toward supply reduction, validator and staker support, and broader ecosystem growth.

To me, this is one of the biggest open problems in crypto:

How do you make token value connect to real network usage?

- More usage could mean more value captured.

- More value captured could mean stronger FLR economics.

- Stronger FLR economics could mean a healthier long-term network.

Flare is trying to move away from a model where the token is supported mainly by emissions, toward one where the network recycles more of its own economic activity back into FLR and the ecosystem.

[Yuri Bezmenov's Ghost @Ne_pas_couvrir]

Here’s Ben Stein in 1979 describing television as an engine of cultural demoralization. He argues that a small clique of producers and writers pushed a left-coded inversion of reality onto the public. They despised traditional power centers and hated figures like Buckley. They propagandized the nation into accepting a fake world where businessmen are villains, criminals are the good-guys, small towns are sinister, military officers are proto-fascists, and work barely exists.

98% of companies do not make any money.

They simply fraud and steal from the endless money hose of government

[Hugo Philion @HugoPhilion]

@iMustBeNewLOL As an aside. The governance proposal isn’t long because we want to hide anything (unlike the Epstein Files) it’s just we think we can radically update FLR token economics in a way that is excellent for everyone,

Former BlackRock fund manager Ed Dowd on Iran:

"The credit creation system needs constant growth"

"If this turns into World War III or extended war, the amount of debt required to fund that war is going to be in the trillions."

"We're getting to the end of this multi-generational Ponzi scheme."

"Is the timing of this suspicious? I think a little bit."

This clip of Dowd (@DowdEdward), a former BlackRock fund manager and co-founder of Phinance Technologies, is taken from an interview with Michelle Makori (@MichelleMakori) posted to the Miles Franklin Media (@MilesFranklinCo) YouTube channel on March 26, 2026.

----------------Partial transcription of clip---------------

Makori:

"When you and I last spoke, you said that the US is not going to give up dollar dominance without a fight, that they're not going to go quietly into the night. Is this Iran conflict that fight?"

Dowd:

"Okay, let's talk for a second. You know, look, the credit creation system needs constant growth and flow and bigger injection amounts. And the crises are coming sooner and sooner. So we're getting to the end of this, this multi-generational Ponzi scheme. And it needs constant, you need to constantly feed the credit creation growth.

"Coming into 2019, we had problems in the plumbing. We were going to global slowdown, but then magically Covid appeared and we had war-like spending. And that floated the credit system along for another several years and here we are only six years later and it's wobbling again. So we need even more credit creation. So one way to do that is have a war.

"So I don't know, I'm not in the room. Is the timing of this suspicious? I think a little bit. The powers that be, the actual people running the show, are the Deep State, the administrative state. And if they want war, war is what we're going to get. And it's going to require a tremendous amount of spending and it will give good cover for a financial collapse.

"But do I know that for sure? No. But the timing of the war is awfully suspicious. Private credit started to have serious problems and then boom, we're in war.

Makori:

"So you mean an excuse to just create more liquidity because it's gone the opposite way right now."

Dowd:

"Well it is now. But, so you will get a financial reset, but down the road, if we're in, if we're in, if this turns into World War three or extended war, the amount of debt required to fund that war is going to be in the trillions. And that'll keep the system alive after a brief, you know, pause in financial assets, you know, stock markets will go down 40, 50%.

"So it saves the system. It doesn't prevent the system from resetting a little bit, but it saves the system. You need constant credit creation."

[Fractured Light @FracturedLight0]

Nick Fuentes points out how Trump has long manipulated markets. It’s gone into overdrive during the Iran war.

“It seems like every statement, every action, almost everything Trump does, is a calculated deception to manipulate the stock market, commodities, and financial markets.”

“When you consider the timing, this seems to be some sort of financial manipulation.”
