hey peter have you been exposed at all to the work of @SimonDixonTwitt ??
it appears to me that his read on the geopolitical situation has been undefeated, when the war started he predicted a deal straight away because he studies the flow of transnational capital, months ago he was saying that money from the sovereign wealth of the Saudis, the GCC, and Qatar etc was flowing into blackrock and its cohorts, getting exposure to israeli assets
his whole shtick is that the BRICS countries, along with the sovereign wealth from the gulf nations, are essentially purchasing the departure of US military from the region, transforming the middle east back into west asia and establishing a new “multi-polar” world order
this flare up between iran and israel was used by china and the american financial industrial complex as a narrative driver to justify a final wave of profits for the contractors and the “forever war” model profiteers
the extremist elements of the IRGC were targeted by america and israel, and the US military infrastructure was purposefully targeted by iran, this creates narrative justification for new rebuild contracts as well as a reason for the us to depart from west asia..
personally i think this entire operation was orchestrated as a means of re-negotiating the new order of geopolitics, likely it was carried out by an agreement between China and the financial/military industrial complex of america
The Australian government just put forward sweeping changes to the capital gains tax system.
They pitched it under the guise of helping young people access afforable housing.
I ran the numbers, and undeniably, the policy harms, not helps young Aussies.

You paid into your pension for forty years.
Every month. Without fail.
The fund manager took 1.5% every year whether the fund went up or down.
The government changed the tax rules twice.
Inflation ate the rest.
You did everything they told you to do.
Work hard. Pay in. Trust the system.
Now you are sixty two and the number on the statement does not buy what you thought it would.
The retirement age moved from sixty to sixty seven while you were not looking.
The triple lock is under review every single year.
The pot you built is being quietly devalued by the same people who will tell you Bitcoin is too risky.
A fixed supply asset that nobody can print, nobody can tax retrospectively, nobody can move the rules on.
That is not risk.
That is the only thing in your life they cannot touch.

This episode with @SimonDixonTwitt and @PeterMcCormack is by far the most eloquent explanation of whats going on in the Middle East. Had to watch this a couple of times for all this information to sink in. This is just a sample of what he dissected. Bravo Simon!

Preston Pysh and Jeff Booth explore Jack and Nicks paper "Bitcoin, the architecture of time" which investigates the connection between Bitcoin and physics, suggesting that Bitcoin blocks could represent quantised time.
@elonmusk I wonder how much energy is used per token as well as how much energy is used to mine a sat? ₿ The token to sat parity.
Tldr:→ Roughly 1 AI token ≈ 0.1-0.125 sats in energy terms (or 8-10 AI tokens per sat). Thanks Grok
Fiat money is so bad at holding value that a very powerful political constituency of people using their homes as savings accounts does everything possible to keep home prices rising even as construction costs decline, making homes & families unaffordable to the young.
WAKE UP TIME! THIS MAN NEEDS BITCOIN!!!
