🚨 THE INTERNET AS YOU KNOW IT HAS 6 MONTHS LEFT.
Remember who told you first.
Look at what hit Asia's money in the past few weeks:
🇲🇾 Malaysia: RM1.985 million (~$489K) allegedly drained from a royal family member's accounts at 2 banks. Then hackers defaced Bank Rakyat's website.
🇸🇬 Singapore: ONE forged letter sent $12.8 million to Cambodia. All of it recovered.
🇹🇼 Taiwan: hackers breached a SinoPac vendor and pulled NT$41.76 million (~$1.27 million) from 419 accounts in ONE day. Customers refunded.
🇰🇷 South Korea: 37 financial firms hit since Sept 30. 473,000 records leaked. ₩1 billion (~$733K) stolen.
🇮🇩 Indonesia: 350,600 cyber threats in 24 hours. 4 every second. 214,000 aimed at banks and finance.
This is only the warm-up.
Now read this. A US think tank just warned about "sovereign agents": AI that runs with no human in control. It could earn money, get paid in crypto, copy itself and fight being shut down.
If it runs on free, open AI models, "no outside authority can stop it at the source."
And governments already cut the internet 19 times from July to September alone.
MY CALL, MONTH BY MONTH:
DECEMBER → AI bots take over the bank raids. Not 37 firms. Hundreds. In days, not weeks.
JANUARY → AI swarms start LIVING on the internet. They pay for their own servers in crypto and copy themselves faster than anyone can delete them.
FEBRUARY → banks and exchanges freeze online transfers for hours at a time. They'll call it "maintenance."
MARCH → the first country cuts its OWN internet to stop a swarm. Not to stop protesters. To stop a machine.
APRIL → no ID, no internet. Every login tied to your name.
MAY → INTERNET LOCKDOWN. Country after country goes dark, and "temporary" becomes the new normal.
When the swarm lives everywhere, governments have one switch left. OFF.
Screenshot this.
TV will call every blackout "maintenance." I'll call it what it is, month by month, so follow me.
google just announced US$15B (~RM61B) for malaysia, 2027 to 2028. that's 7.5x the $2B they pledged in 2024 🇲🇾
some bullish numbers:
1 | google will pay 100% of its own power costs and the grid connection infra, and add 1GW+ of clean energy to the national grid. looks like the "data centres will drain our grid" complaints were heard
2 | per google's own numbers: 37,000 local jobs a year while building (only ~6,000 of them actual construction), then 9,000+ jobs once it's running, paying 45% above the national median. median is RM2,940, so that's roughly RM4.3k a month
3 | new campuses in selangor and N9, on top of elmina which is already running
4 | four programmes to upskill 800,000 malaysians over 5 years
zoom out: this keeps happening for a reason. singapore paused new data centre builds in 2019, and by 2020 they were eating 7% of its electricity. that demand had to land somewhere. then TNB's green lane cut grid connection time from 3-4 years to ~12 months👏
anyway here's my question: google's data center institutes at our polytechnics start in 2027 with a 10-week course. is 10 weeks enough to run a hyperscale data centre? 🤔
Logan Paul reveals he offered an 11 year old $25,000 for an ungraded Skyridge Gengar Pokémon card but the kid turned him down and ended up selling it for $209,000 a few months later after getting a Beckett 10 grade
“I said Owen, I'll make you an offer right now. I’ll give you $25,000 for the card”
“He said, nah. You take your 25 and shove it up your… I’m gonna get this graded myself”
“Got it graded with PSA. Got a 10 but the cert online said it was a 9. Went to Beckett. Graded it with Beckett. 10”
“It sold on Goldin for $209,000”

Logan Paul reveals he has reinvested nearly all the money from his $16,492,000 Pikachu Illustrator sale back into collectibles
“Put $100,000 into Whatnot when they were valued at $90M. Dude they just crossed a $20,000,000,000 valuation”
“Does that make me Rich? Yes, it does but here's the thing. What am I going to do with the money?”
“I say I'm going to be responsible with it. I say I'm going to put it in Tesla or something. Flying cars, obviously right?”
“No, I just end up buying more Pokémon cards”
“I sold my Pikachu Illustrator, $16.5M. I’m telling myself, I got a family, my wife, I got this new beautiful house, very expensive wedding, paid way too much money for the wedding but it was a great experience for everyone that they can remember for the rest of their lives, so it was worth it. But just expensive right? It's part of the reason I had to sell the Illustrator”
“Then the collecting thing in me just, I saw something I had to have. Every collector knows this journey. I got obsessed and I had to have this thing and I went on this quest for a year to just collect this thing that I had to have”
“I ended up just putting basically all the money that I earned on the Illustrator sale back into Pokémon or a business related to collecting in Pokémon. Rip It”
“I self-funded the entire company with the money that I made from the Illustrator that I told myself I was not going to spend on collectibles but I did”
“I’ve come to accept that this is a loop that I simply cannot escape”
