There is No Reason to Attack Elon Over Bitcoin – Just Wait and See What He’s Doing!

Elon Musk: Hero of Earth or Internet Villain? Wait and see! I am upset at Elon Musk for his decision to crash Bitcoin. I think this was a very bad decision. However, we need to consider context, and consider that maybe attacking him is not the best course of action. We need to remember that Elon was the one single famous person – not just the one billionaire but the one single famous person (other than like, Van Morrison and a few other minor people who aren’t big time famous) – who came out strong against the coronavirus hoax. I will never forget that show he did with Joe Rogan, where he just laid out all of the facts. It was incredible. Furthermore, he also has called ...
Who Dunnit Bill? Melinda Gates Sought Divorce After Epstein Reports

Bill Gates with his business and philanthropic empires spanning the globe would have been a prime target for extortion. Befitting the billionaire tech geek, Bill Gates fell in love with his then young girlfriend Melinda after she won a game of Cluedo, the crime- mystery puzzle that relies on powers of deduction with the catchline, “Who Dunnit?”. It seems that Melinda, now 56, was able to summon those same powers of deduction in deciding to walk away from her 65-year-old husband and world-famous business guru. Their 27-year marriage is now heading for divorce which the philanthropic couple announced last week garnering world headlines, but without explaining the reason for their ...

Montana Is First State To Cancel Unemployment Benefits In Response To Unprecedented Worker Shortage

Three weeks ago, when looking at the unprecedented labor shortage that is crippling the US economy (even with some 100 million Americans not in the labor force)... ...we said that there is a simple reason for this paradoxical phenomenon: trillions in Biden stimulus are now incentivizing potential workers not to seek gainful employment, but to sit back and collect the next stimmy check for doing absolutely nothing in what is becoming the world's greatest "under the radar" experiment in Universal Basic Income. Consider the following striking anecdotes from Bloomberg: Early in the Covid-19 pandemic, Melissa Anderson laid off all three full-time employees of her ...
I ate like Warren Buffett for a week - and it was miserable

I ate like Warren Buffett for a week. Buffett does not eat very healthy. My body felt terrible by the end of the week. See more stories on Insider's business page. Warren Buffett is one of the most successful investors in history. He also has a really weird diet. Buffett's diet of sugary soda, junk food, and limited vegetables has reached legendary status. The Berkshire Hathaway CEO drinks about five cans of Coca-Cola products a day, constantly munches on See's Candies, and pours so much salt on his food that John Stumpf, the former Wells Fargo CEO, said watching Buffett dole it out was like a "snowstorm." Business Insider has tried various people's diets ...
The $3 Trillion Hidden Exposure Behind The Archegos Blowup

Authored by Nick Dunbar of Risky Finance When the family office Archegos Capital abruptly imploded in late March, prompting $50 billion in block trades and $10 billion in losses at Credit Suisse, Nomura, UBS and Morgan Stanley, many bank analysts were taken by surprise. Last week, many of these analysts sounded frustrated listening to Credit Suisse’s earnings call in which senior management skirted round without giving any real detail about the disaster. “Do you think it’s possible that this could produce a very fundamental reset in how your IRB credit risk models work?” wondered Stefan Stalmann of Autonomous Research. “I mean you have only CHF20 billion to CHF25 ...
The Complete Solution: Crypto can Replace Fiat Currencies

3 Comments
In order for crypto to be a usable currency in the real world for retail commerce, it needs to be fast, cheap and handle many tens of thousands of transactions per second just like Visa and Mastercard do. But in order to be a respected and viable currency and maintain guaranteed value, it must also be decentralized to prevent privileged entities from creating it at will, like the people at the US Federal Reserve Bank do with the US dollar. In the crypto world, both of those needs have been solved. The decentralized need was, unsurprisingly, solved with the creation of bitcoin in 2009 as it was directly inspired by the abuses enacted in response to the 2008 financial crisis. The fast ...

Powerful media figures now invoke sexist and racist tropes to cast themselves as so fragile and marginalized that critiques of their work constitute bullying and assault. The daily newspaper USA Today is the second-most circulated print newspaper in the United States — more than The New York Times and more than double The Washington Post. Only The Wall Street Journal has higher circulation numbers. On Sunday, the paper published and heavily promoted a repellent article complaining that “defendants accused in the Capitol riot Jan. 6 crowdfund their legal fees online, using popular payment processors and an expanding network of fundraising platforms, despite a crackdown by tech ...

The people pretending to run the world’s financial affairs do. The more layers of abstract game-playing they add to the existing armatures of unreality they’ve already constructed, the more certain it becomes that they will blow up all the support systems of a sunsetting hyper-tech economy that now has no safe lane to continue running in. Virtually all the big nations are doing this now in desperation because they don’t understand that the hyper-tech economy is hostage to the deteriorating economics of energy, basically fossil fuels, and oil especially. The macro mega-system can’t grow anymore. We’re now in the de-growth phase of a dynamic that pulsates through ...

Homeless man is first person to ever live in a 3D-printed home in Texas community “I hope I stay here until my last dying days.” Those are the words of Tim Shea, who has come a long way since his days as a homeless man once struggling with heroin addiction. He is now the first person ever to live in a 3-D-printed house, according to the home’s maker. On the outskirts of Austin, Texas, 70-year-old Shea has settled into his 400-square-foot home constructed by 3-D printing. His new home is situated in the Community First! Village site, which is comprised of houses for the chronically homeless. The 51-acre development has more than 500 homes thus far, including the 3-D ...

When governments around face economic problems… stagnation, recession, a sudden crisis, or even a simple period of lower-than-expected growth… they all are conditioned to use the same solution: deficit spend or issue new trillions in “thin air” currency. How many times can governments paper over problems? Are there any consequences? Our friend Adam Taggart recently sat down with respected financial analyst Michael Every who suspects we’re closer than most realize and that it could even lead to a breakdown of the entire system. As governments continue to flood the world with debt-funded stimulus, they not only fan the flames under the social powderkeg of wealth ...

Last Thursday, President Joe Biden was allowed out of his protective bubble to deliver a nationally televised address to the nation. This was big news in Washington, as Biden has been in hiding since taking office. Normally a new president spends his first few weeks in office making the rounds, chatting with the media, and doing what amounts to a victory lap around Washington. Biden has not done any of that. Even though the American media is stuffed to the gills with toadies and rumpswabs, there is always the chance one of them accidentally asks him a real question. Worse yet, there is the chance he tries to answer. For a man in severe cognitive decline, even simple questions can lead to ...

How reassured were you by Joe Biden’s speech to the nation Thursday night? The more his managers pretend that he’s in charge of anything, the more unlikely it actually seems. So, they wound him up — Adderall would be my guess, to fortify the attention span — and rolled him out like the mummy of Amenhotep III, and one could just imagine the leaders of this-and-that foreign nation cringing (or cackling) in their seats to see this embodiment of collapsing America go through his spiritless ritual motions. Mostly what did not fly is the idea that the Covid-19 virus can still be used as a cattle-prod for herding citizens into feedlots of compliance — Americans are ...
Rickards: What's The Real Price Of Gold?

hat’s the price of gold? That seems like a ridiculously easy question to answer. I’m looking at a trading screen right now, and it displays a price of $1,733.80 per ounce. That price may change a bit by the time you read this, but it would only take a fresh glance at the screen to get the new price. Case closed. What’s the price of silver? Again, the question seems easy to answer. My trading screen right now says $26.82 per ounce. That price also changes, but it only takes another look at the screen to fetch the new price. Nothing to it. If only things were that simple. They’re not. In fact, establishing prices for gold and silver is far more difficult than it ...
Why Dominion’s Defamation Lawsuits Are Garbage

Dominion Voting Systems is suing MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell for $1.3 billion. This comes in the wake of other Dominion lawsuits against Trump advisors Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell. All are accused of lying about Dominion’s supposed complicity in using the company’s vote-counting software to favor presidential candidate Joe Biden in the 2020 presidential election. The company claims Lindell’s accusations “have caused irreparable harm to Dominion’s good reputation and threatened the safety of our employees and customers.” In the case of Giuliani, the company claims: “For Dominion—whose business is producing and providing voting systems for ...

Well this is a little awkward... Four years since Jamie Dimon famously proclaimed that "bitcoin is a fraud", "will eventually blow up", and that "any trader trading bitcoin would be fired for being stupid", JPMorgan's co-President Daniel Pinto has reportedly admitted that bitcoin and its crypto brethren are a real thing: "If over time an asset class develops that is going to be used by different asset managers and investors, we will have to be involved,” CNBC's Hugh Son reports that last month, during a town hall meeting held for thousands of JPMorgan Chase traders and sales personnel around the world, global markets head Troy Rohrbaugh ...

The oldest bank in America will now be storing Bitcoin on behalf of its asset-management clients, according to the Wall Street Journal. “Digital assets are becoming part of the mainstream,” said Roman Regelman, chief executive of BNY Mellon’s asset-servicing and digital businesses. BNY Mellon’s announcement marks the first time one of the big custody banks has unveiled a road map for treating digital currencies as any other asset. Decrypt reports that the bank plans to enable cryptocurrencies to flow through the same systems that it uses for its traditional currencies and stocks. It has created a prototype for doing this and is engaging with clients to see if they ...
Biden Wants to Shut Down Credit Bureaus – What Would That Mean for You?

One of the more fascinating platform items of the Biden presidential campaign was the idea of transferring consumer credit ratings from Equifax (NYSE: EFX), Experian PLC (OTC: EXPGY) and TransUnion (NYSE: TRU) to a public registry under the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. As reported by the Balance, this idea was examined in depth in a paper published by a think tank called Demos in 2019. One major takeaway of that paper was that “decisions drawing on credit data reproduce and spread existing racial inequality, making it harder to achieve true economic equity.” Demos proposed the idea of a public credit registry in that paper. The CFPB has a new acting director, Dave ...
