I don't have any kind of insider goods on the down-low... no special journalistic scoop from a rogue agent of TMZ-lol.
Gordon's been paying attention to world sentiment on issues dealing with Ukraine, Russia, the U.S. and watching that beautiful bull market that was developing before our committee on future finance and stablecoins spent 4 hours talking about how they now realize stablecoins are a thing and KYC/AML ain't enough. This always happens, and at some point ya gotta wonder if the only major market manipulation outside of NFTs is ever going to come from anywhere worse than your own government?
Biden is said to be waiting to lower the boom on cryptocurrency with an executive order in the name of national security. Apparently he cares more about owning the fear mongering than he does actual security, or he woulda let us know what he was thinking 7 weeks ago when he started mentioning how dangerous the threat was.
But, we all know when words like "prez Biden" are used, we're talking about whatever radical leftist brains are actually operating on his behalf, because goodness knows Biden doesn't know what a banana is, let alone a cryptocurrency.
This is all worth mentioning, because as I mentioned a beaut of a bull market was developing, and the pull back could be blamed on Friday liquidations, because thanks to Gensler that will continue to be a 'futures' and 'contracts' thing more and more as time strolls on. But, if in our time we are watching real Russian aggression pick up again, it is worth noting that while the schools of the world train kids in Marxism and 'ooooo real Communism has never really been tried before' NOPE! It's up to all free humans to shut that noise down. ANYONE who has studied history before it got wikified into b.s. knows the game of deep-seeded Leninist brainwashing, and it's all over the place.
We are facing real threats from a real aggressor. Anything that makes the dreams of conspiratorial groups seem real cannot compare to how well Putin has entrapped greater minds than Biden, and there are few forces thicker on planet earth than real Cold-War era Soviet national pride.
We have the weakest country in the weakest days of military training at a time where the world needs the strongest force for freedom, and people have been so angry at the West and the almighty dollar for so long, it just seems like a regular progression for us to be spending completely out of control under this disgusting regime.
Xi sees our weakness. Putin sees our weakness.
Realize; Macron tried to speak of France's position as a NATO nation (those still whimpering about Communism- give it a chance, need to look up NATO- probably had 3 sentences about it in high school is my guess) and Putin ridiculed them on the world stage in front of a mic, saying how they bored him to tears for 6 hours. Putin is overtly looking down his nose at foreign diplomats flying in to appease his Ukrainian interests and he is intentionally standing them up at the airport, pretending they don't exist.
If you have no idea the historic significance of Dunkirk, you aren't qualified to weigh in with opinion here. Go beyond the first 3 pages of Google search and learn what is actually taking place.
Putin has publicly addressed it, stating that if the NATO nations try to intervene in his interests in Ukraine, he won't have any choice but to use Russian nukes and the results will be utterly devastating for everyone, so don't do it. These are not the conditions where you want the leader of the once free world being an empty shirt with his crack-pipe son having made deals with Russia, while the brain-dead left still believes Hitlary's campaign was on to Russian collusion, while paying for real collusion themselves.
These are dangerous times, my friend.
Let's hope this fizzles out before Europe realizes all of their leaders have swallowed the U.N. Koolaid and placed half of their energy dependence under Russian pipelines. Let's hope this calms down before Trudeau suddenly discovers that truckers stand for freedom, but meanwhile his country lives awfully close to neighbors offering real utter destruction if he cares about a national supply chain, guess what; the lights can go out in the Winter in Canada easier than brown-outs across Europe.
What exactly, do these bozos think Putin is doing raising the topic of NATO?
People have no sense of history anymore. They don't know how Putin came to rise in his position.
They don't know about where he was when the calls of freedom came for "Gorbachev" to "tear down these walls".
Today, the Leninist training camps have taught that none of this was real, that it was posturing pageantry, but the people of the East and West walls will tell you differently, except they are growing old, much like we are running out of WWII vets who can tell you how eerily similar ALL of this mess is to what they fought to protect us from.
We are within inches, and people really do not understand the threat.
So, I'm here to bring it all into perspective in a kind of selfish manner. Just like I was doing in March 2020, I'm watching the crypto space as there are wars and rumors of wars. The volume is dying down a bit, the sell-off is on its disappointing second day, but it wasn't ruthless nuking of the market we've seen before; not yet. Is it looming? I hope not.
Selfishly, I'm wondering if we can hold through this little weekend wave and gain back some traction in the market. If there is any positivity in coming weeks it will be despite this awful, horrible, terrible leadership we have in the states.
The one thing that cannot be predicted in a volatile market, is what positions benefit the wicked hearts of governments so corrupt they actually believe they are the moral guide. If you're not one of them, there's no way to fully understand their wickedness. If you ARE one of them, chances are good you worry as well, because you see they are a little off their game, overly confident yet completely misdirected.
The threats of real unstoppable, unchangeable war are at our doorstep over a country, Ukraine, that:
Looks like the remnants of a failed USSR
Does not produce automobiles
Does not provide us clean energy, dirty energy, gas, oil or any of the things that keep the lights on and prevent the masses from freezing in the dark
Does not sell us their priceless video game consoles or hi-tech computers
Does not export fancy Ukrainian TVs
But did bring us the dish Chicken Kiev, so we can be grateful
I will just leave you with this thought:
one thing I believe Ukraine may have that no one else seems to understand Putin has already said something bold about:
They do have 40,000 BTC if I understand correctly. Just this past week Putin muscled over the Russian central bank's overt message to ban all crypto and mining, but not ownership, and Putin moved to protect it as a regulated currency. Any chance he's looking to add a cold 40,000 Bitcoin to the war chest?
What do you think the world will think about crypto if it is used to fund nuclear annihilation?
Did I mention 3D chess?
The man is dangerous, rose to power over murder. The man stayed in power through murder. He is calculated, aggressive, and he does these things with a smile. While we laugh about images of him shirtless posturing from atop horses, he appeals to his nation's desire to see strong leadership and pride. These are the pressure-cooker conditions that could turn the world upside down.
My hope is that the time for voices of freedom shouting out across borders will silence the dogs of doom howling for war.
If you're the praying type, it's a good time to be lifting up notions of true peace and brotherhood, defending in our hearts the desire for peace between ourselves and our neighbors, standing firmly against oppressive forces and mental warfare that has clearly been effective. If we want crypto, if we want to see markets resilient despite government best-efforts to break our spirits, then people need to close their eyes, say a prayer, and act with character.
A few words coming from a cautiously optimistic Crypto war hero/3D cartoon leader of an underground freedom movement... Crypto Gordon Freeman, the once free man, hopefully leading into freedom now, and praying for freedom in the days, weeks, months, years to come... for now... out.
P.S. Commies, you may now give me your 2-5 thumbs down. The rest of you... thank you! :-)
