Red Alert from Grandma

A few days ago, the Chinese Government seized all savings accounts in the country, by "redefining" the life savings of hundreds of millions of Chinese people as "investment products" belonging to the government.

This is what happens when the government rules you, instead of you ruling the government.

Then, the Vatican announced that it was ending all foreign investments and returning the assets to the Vatican Bank.

What do they know (or suspect) that you don't know?

They know that the present Bull Market is a Pit Bull Market instead.

The Vermin are "running up" the stock markets of the world by "self-investing".

In other words, the corporations listed on the various exchanges, and the hedge funds, and even more importantly, all the pension and investments slush funds, are propping up the stock market by buying their own stocks, thus generating what appears to be demand for their shares and ever- increasing stock prices. This apparent profit-making opportunity lures naive and unwary investors into the market.

At a certain pre-arranged moment, the big banks and other major players will pull the plug and exit stage left, leaving the corporation shareholders and smaller investors and insurance companies to pick up the gargantuan losses.
Then, they, the ones that planned the disaster with malice aforethought, will come back in and buy up everything for nothing.

This is what they did in 1929, so it's not exactly rocket science to see what they are doing again.

I wish it weren't so, but.... there is no other reason in this world that already grossly overvalued stocks would be selling like hot cakes.

My guess is that the Chinese Government is bulking up its cash assets position to be ready to swoop in and buy everything in sight for pennies on the dollar after the crash. And the Vatican is simply taking its bat and ball and going home to sit out the extra innings.

If I had any stock market investments I would be pulling out now, taking my chits and going home just like the Vatican. And if I had a long term investment strategy, I would be paying off debts and bulking up my cash position with both gold and credit, just like China.

So what can you do? If you are in the stock market --- get out. If you are a producer and have firm futures contracts you have to stay in and pray. And if you are like me, shaking your head, sit back and watch the show.

This is only possible because people don't pay attention to history, don't know about institutional investors, and don't realize that Central Banks were created to manipulate commodities --- including world currencies, which are commodities, too.

My guess for the Pull the Plug date is toward the end of the harvest cycle, so that all those food commodity futures contracts are exercised BEFORE the market goes kafluey. There's a reason the 1929 Crash came in late October.

The Monsters pay off the Farmers in grossly inflated dollars and get to keep what's important -- the actual food commodities, which will predictably skyrocket in price.

You may have been wondering about the USDA's policy of paying farmers not to produce crops and even actively going out and demanding after the fact that the farmers destroy their crops already planted (???) --- well, wonder no more.

Food shortages mean guaranteed profits for the Rats. Thanks to this, food will be scarce and in many places, it will simply disappear into black markets. You will have to wear a trench coat and talk to Julio if you want to buy anything.

Water shortages planned for the Western United States means the same thing.

I think we should just cut to the chase and start paying visits to the CEO's of all the banks and corporations right now, since the Secretary of the Army, Christopher Miller, isn't doing his job and preventing this from happening.
What can we "little people" do to defend ourselves from this hideous evil on high?

You can't go wrong stashing cartons of booze and cigarettes, though those can be seized by the government corporations using their "regulatory powers" over alcohol, tobacco, and firearms.

But there are a surprising number of other things that become big ticket items in a crash. BIC lighters, sacks of charcoal, salt, spices, coffee, sterno, toothpaste, baking soda, soap, vinegar, MREs.,ammo, tools, tampons, packets of yeast, dry milk, all the little things of life that vanish in a crisis and which "your" government has done nothing to stockpile for you.

In fact, your actual "government" --- which has been a foreign military junta in place since 1860, has done nothing but make it worse, deliberately, according to plan --- to kill off as many Preferential Creditors as possible.
First, they deployed their "Uniformed Officers" ---- all the doctors and nurses and dentists who have been illegally conscripted under Title 37 of the Federal Code --- and yes, these medical professionals have been used to kill millions of innocent, trusting people who came to their hospitals for help, bought their "patent medicines", and who took their vaccinations in good faith.

Now, they are going to crash the stock market and profit from all the death, destruction and chaos that entails.

Maybe it's our own fault. That's all we've trained these men to do --- create death and destruction in order to make money off of it, both going and coming. I suppose it's inevitable that they'd come back around full circle and trash us, too.

They are going to stand there in their uniforms dripping with medals, turn both palms upward to the sky, pretend that they, the U.S. Military, had nothing to do with this debacle (even though they have been in charge of it since 1863) and they are here to help....

Help themselves, that is.

While we are the topic of U.S. Military betrayals and lies, here's another good one. Australia just announced that the Australian Defense Force will be merging with and will be under the command of the U.S. Military. They are just getting around to announcing what has been self-evident since 1902, if you look at the money going out of our pockets to pay the Australian Military to do the horrific things that have been done to the people of Australia. Expect the rest of the former Commonwealth and occupied nations of Europe and Japan to follow.

Why? Because we've been paying all their Defense Forces, too. For many decades. Which means that the U.S. Military has been de facto occupying all those countries, too.

And why are they creating this genocide in Australia? Because they already sold the mining resources and land mass to China. They have to make room for the new tenants.

LOL. And you wonder why there is any threat of attacks and reprisals and bad feelings overall? You are falling for all the Hope Porn about White Hats and Alliances?

No, no, no, children, the current events tell a far different tale, a tale in which the guilty U.S. Military is attempting to avoid detection of its role and paper over its responsibility for 95% of all the bad things that have happened in the past 161 years. The only truthful statement coming out of their mouths is that, yes, everything is under the control of the U.S. Military.
As you can see, that's not exactly good news.

Increasingly, the storefront of politicians is wearing thin and we see our own dear Generals and Admirals --- Americans all working for the Queen, not us, and being paid with our money by SERCO, INC., a British Quartermaster ---- doing all this outrageous crap to tear the guts out of Australia and America and everywhere else, under color of law and authority that was never granted to them.

And their excuse? Ah, they are teaching us a lesson, rubbing our noses in it, so that these same mistakes can never be made again? Well, the actual mistake was when their corporation's "President" Abraham Lincoln was elected under conditions of deceit, and it's all been downhill since then.
Prepare for impact. Expect no help from the military and pray for no further harm. Now that their role as the puppet master and enforcer is fully exposed, it's harder for them to pull their crap, but who knows? Maybe they will just come out of the closet, fangs bared, and admit that they -- and the Brits, of course --- have been at the bottom of every dog pile since 1860.

Batten the hatches, kids, and send what help you can to help us bring forward your cause and bring you relief. We are at least telling the truth and trying hard to introduce some shreds of honor and sanity into the worldwide discussion.

$318 Trillion in Debt Could Break the Silver Market

There’s one number Wall Street doesn’t want you thinking about: $318 trillion. That’s how much global debt exists right now, and my cousin Asian Guy breaks down why this debt spiral could collide with a silver market already in a multi-year supply deficit. In this video, he explains:

  • Why governments always inflate debt away

  • Why silver is facing record industrial demand and shrinking inventories

  • How paper silver is diverging from physical reality

  • Why some analysts see $100+ silver, or a system break before that

This isn’t hype. It’s math, history, and market stress signals lining up. The market hasn’t fully reacted yet. But the pressure is already there.

⚠️ Bitcoin briefly trades at $24,000 on Binance’s USD1 pair in flash move ⚠️

🤔 What to know:

Bitcoin briefly dropped to $24,111 on Binance's BTC/USD1 pair before quickly rebounding above $87,000.

The price fluctuation was isolated to a stablecoin pair backed by World Liberty Financial and did not affect other major BTC pairs.

Such sudden price changes are often due to thin liquidity and can be exacerbated by fewer active traders during quieter hours.

What Is Altseason?

When 75% of the top 100 coins outperform Bitcoin in the last 90 days, it's Altcoin Season. Remember, stablecoins like Tether and DAl, as well as asset-backed tokens such as WBTC, stETH, and cLINK, aren't included.

Stellar CEO Reveals Where Real Opportunity Lies in Crypto Market: Details

In a recent tweet, Stellar Development Foundation (SDF) CEO and Executive Director Denelle Dixon defines what "real opportunity" is in blockchain as a new financial future beckons.

The SDF CEO was reacting to a recent Bloomberg report on Bank of New York Mellon Corp (BNY), Nasdaq, S&P Global and iCapital participation in a new $50 million investment round by Digital Asset Holdings. This comes as some of Wall Street’s biggest names embrace the technology that underpins cryptocurrencies to handle traditional assets.

Reacting to this development, Stellar Foundation CEO Denelle Dixon stated that every blockchain investment is a bet on a different financial future. Dixon added that seeing banks explore blockchain technology validates what has been known over the years.

Real opportunity defined

While Wall Street’s biggest names betting on blockchain might be one of the most significant adoption milestones in the digital asset market, Dixon defines what real opportunity is and what it is not.

According to the SDF executive director, real opportunity is not replicating old systems on new rails but rather building open networks that fundamentally expand global finance participation.

"But the real opportunity isn’t replicating old systems on new rails—it’s building open networks that fundamentally expand who gets to participate in global finance. That’s the opportunity," Dixon tweeted.

At the Meridian 2025 event, Stellar outlined its long-term privacy strategy, committing to investing in critical privacy infrastructure and building foundational cryptographic capabilities.

Stellar eyes privacy upgrade

A new protocol upgrade is on the horizon for the Stellar network: X-Ray, which lays the groundwork for developers to build privacy applications on Stellar using zero-knowledge (ZK) cryptography.

The protocol timeline testnet vote is anticipated for Jan. 7, 2026, while the mainnet vote is expected for Jan. 22, 2026.

XDC Network's acquisition of Contour Network

XDC Network's acquisition of Contour Network marks a silent shift to connect the digital trade infrastructure to real-time, tokenized settlement rails.

In a world where cross-border payments still take days and trap trillions in idle liquidity, integrating Contour’s trade workflows with XDC Network Blockchains' ISO 20022 financial messaging standard to bridge TradFi and Web3 in Trade Finance.

The Current State of Cross-Border Trade Settlements

Cross-border payments remain one of the most inefficient parts of global finance. For decades, companies have inter-dependency with banks and their correspondent banks across the world, forcing them to maintain trillions of dollars in pre-funded nostro and vostro balances — the capital that sits idle while transactions crawl across borders.

Traditional settlement is slow, often 1–5 days, and often with ~2-3% in FX and conversion fees. For every hour a corporation can’t access its own cash increases the cost of financing, tightens liquidity that could be used for other purposes, which in turn slows economic activity.

Before SWIFT, payments were fully manual. Intermediary banks maintained ledgers, and reconciliation across multiple institutions limited speed and volume.

SWIFT reshaped global payments by introducing a secure, standardized messaging infrastructure through ISO 20022 - which quickly became the language of money for 11,000+ institutions in 200 countries.

But SWIFT only fixed the messaging — not the movement. Actual value still moves through slow, capital-intensive correspondent chains.

Regulated and Compliant Stablecoin such as USDC (Circle) solves the part SWIFT never could: instant, on-chain settlement.

Stablecoin Settlement revamping Trade and Tokenization

Stablecoin such as USDC is a digital token pegged to the US Dollar, still the most widely used currency for trade, enabling the movement of funds instantly 24*7 globally - transparently, instantly, and without the need for any intermediaries and the need to lock in trillions of dollars of idle cash.

Tokenized settlement replaces multi-day reconciliation with on-chain finality, reducing:

  • Dependency on intermediaries
  • Operational friction
  • Trillions locked in idle liquidity

For corporates trapped in long working capital cycles, this is transformative.

Digital dollars like USDC make the process simple:

Fiat → Stablecoin → On-Chain Transfer → Fiat

This hybrid model is already widely used across remittances, payouts, and treasury flows.

But one critical piece of global commerce is still lagging:

👉 Trade finance.

The Missing link is still Trade Finance Infrastructure.

While payments innovation has raced ahead, trade finance infrastructure hasn’t kept up. Document flows, letters of credit, and supply-chain financing remain siloed, paper-heavy, and operationally outdated.

This is exactly where the next breakthrough will happen - and why the recent XDC Network acquisition of Contour is a silent revolution.

It transforms to a new era of trade-driven liquidity through an end-to-end digital trade from shipping docs to payment confirmation – one infrastructure that powers all.

The breakthrough won’t come from payments alone — it will come from connecting trade finance to real-time settlement rails.

The XDC + Contour Shift: A Silent Revolution

  • Contour already connects global banks and corporates through digital LCs and digitized trade workflows.
  • XDC Blockchain brings a settlement layer built for speed, tokenization, and institutional-grade interoperability and ISO 20022 messaging compatibility

Contour’s digital letter of credit workflows will be integrated with XDC’s blockchain network to streamline trade documentation and settlement.

Together, they form the first end-to-end digital trade finance network linking:

Documentation → Validation → Settlement all under a single infrastructure.

XDC Ventures (XVC.TECH) is launching a Stable-Coin Lab to work with financial institutions on regulated stablecoin pilots for trade to deepen institutional trade-finance integration through launch of pilots with banks and corporates for regulated stable-coin issuance and settlement.

The Bottom Line

Payments alone won’t transform Global Trade Finance — Trade finance + Tokenized Settlement will.

This is the shift happening underway XDC Network's acquisition of Contour is the quiet catalyst.

Inside The Deal That Made Polymarket’s Founder One Of The Youngest Billionaires On Earth🌍

One year ago, the FBI raided Polymarket founder Shayne Coplan’s apartment. Now, the college dropout is a billionaire at age 27.

In July, Jeffrey Sprecher, the 70-year-old billionaire CEO of Intercontinental Exchange, the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, sat at Manhatta, an upscale restaurant in the financial district overlooking the sprawling New York City skyline from the 60th floor. As a sommelier weaved through tables pouring wine, in walked Shayne Coplan—in a T-shirt and jeans, clutching a plastic water bottle and a paper bag with a bagel he’d picked up en route. Sprecher chuckles as he recalls his first impression of the boyish, eccentric entrepreneur: “An old bald guy that works at the New York Stock Exchange, where we require that you wear a suit and tie, next to a mop-headed guy in a T-shirt that's 27.” But Sprecher was fascinated by Polymarket, Coplan’s blockchain-based prediction market, and after dinner, he made his move: “I asked Shayne if he would consider selling us his company.”

Prediction markets like Polymarket let thousands of ordinary people bet on future events—the unemployment rate, say, or when BitCoin will hit an all-time high. In aggregate, prediction market bets have proven to be something of a crystal ball with the wisdom of the crowd often proving itself more prescient than expert opinion. For instance, Polymarket punters predicted that Trump would prevail in the 2024 presidential election, when many national pundits were sure that Kamala Harris would win.

Coplan initially turned down Sprecher’s buyout offer. But discussions led to negotiations and eventually a deal. In October, Intercontinental announced it had invested $2 billion for an up to 25% stake in the company, bringing the young solo founder the balance he was looking for. “We're consumer, we’re viral, we're culture. They’re finance, they’re headless and they’re infrastructure,” Coplan tells Forbes in a recent interview.

At the same time, Coplan announced investments from other billionaires including Figma’s Dylan Field, Zynga’s Mark Pincus, Uber’s Travis Kalanick and hedge fund manager Glenn Dubin. A longtime Red Hot Chili Peppers fan, Coplan even convinced lead singer Anthony Kiedis to invest after a mutual acquaintance brought the musician to Coplan’s apartment one day. “He's buzzing my door, and I’m like, ‘holy shit,'” Coplan recalls, his bright blue eyes widening. “I love their music. A lot of the inspiration [for my work] comes from the music that I listen to.”

Thanks to the deals, Polymarket’s valuation quickly shot to $9 billion, making the 2025 Under 30 alum the world’s youngest self-made billionaire, with an estimated 11% stake worth $1 billion. His reign was short: twenty days later, he was overtaken as the youngest by the three 22-year-old founders of AI startup Mercor.

Young entrepreneurs are minting ten-figure fortunes faster than ever. In addition to the Mercor trio and Coplan, 15 other Under 30 alumni—including ScaleAI cofounder Lucy Guo, Reddit’s Steve Huffman and Cursor’s cofounders—became billionaires this year, while Guo’s cofounder Alexandr Wang and Robinhood’s Vlad Tenev (both former Under 30 honorees) regained their billionaire status after having fallen out of the ranks.

The budding billionaire has long been fascinated by markets and tech. When he was just 14, Coplan emailed the regional Securities and Exchange Commission office to ask how to create new marketplaces. “I did not get a response, but it’s a really funny email,” he says, grinning playfully as he thinks of his younger self. “It just shows that this stuff takes over a decade of percolating in your mind.”

Two years later, Coplan showed up at the offices of internet startup Genius uninvited after multiple emails of his asking for an internship went ignored. At age 16—at least a decade younger than anyone in that office—he secured his first job after making a memorable impression with his “wild curls” and “encyclopedic knowledge of billionaire tech entrepreneurs.” “If he chooses to become a tech entrepreneur, which seems likely, I have no doubt that we’ll be seeing his name again in the press before long,” Chris Glazek, his manager at the time, wrote in Coplan’s college recommendation letter.

Coplan went on to study computer science at NYU, but dropped out in 2017 to work on various crypto projects that never took off. In 2020, he founded Polymarket to create a solution to the “rampant misinformation” he saw in the world: The company’s first market allowed users to bet on when New York City would reopen amid the pandemic. He soon expanded into elections and pop culture happenings, among other events.

But it didn’t take long for the company to butt heads with regulators. In January 2022, Polymarket paid a $1.4 million fine to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission for offering unregistered markets. It was also ordered to block all U.S. users, but activity on Polymarket skyrocketed particularly during the 2024 U.S. presidential election, with bets totaling $3.6 billion. A week after the election, the FBI raided Coplan's apartment and seized his devices as part of an investigation into a possible violation of this agreement. Shortly after, Coplan posted on his X account that he saw the raid as “a last-ditch effort” from the Biden administration “to go after companies they deem to be associated with political opponents.”

In July, the Department of Justice and CFTC dropped the investigations—after which Sprecher reached out to Coplan for dinner—and less than a week later, Polymarket announced it had acquired CFTC-licensed derivatives exchange QCX to prepare for a compliant U.S. launch. QCX applied to be a federally-registered exchange in 2022—an application that was left dormant for three years before receiving approval less than two weeks before the acquisition was announced. When asked about the timing of the deal, Coplan points to CFTC acting chairwoman Caroline Pham, who President Trump tapped to lead the agency in January. “Caroline deserves a lot of credit for getting every single license that had been paused for no reason approved, as acting chairwoman in less than a year,” he says. Coplan had realized an acquisition might be the only way for Polymarket to legally operate in the U.S. as early as 2021 due to the lengthy federal approval process, a source familiar with the deal told Forbes.

Just two months after the acquisition and days after Donald Trump Jr. joined Polymarket’s advisory board, the company received federal approval to launch in the U.S. (Trump Jr. has also served as a strategic advisor to Polymarket’s main competitor Kalshi since January.)

Polymarket’s rapid rise has drawn critics. Dennis Kelleher, co-founder and CEO of Washington-based financial advocacy group Better Markets, told Forbes in an email that the current administration’s deregulation around prediction markets has unlocked a regulatory “loophole” to enable “unregulated gambling” under the CFTC, “which has zero expertise, capacity or resources to regulate and police these markets.” Kelleher added that with backing from the Trump family “who are directly trying to profit on this new gambling den… the massive deregulation and crypto hysteria will almost certainly end badly for the American people.”

Investors and businesses are scrambling to seize the moment of deregulation. “We had opportunities to invest in events markets earlier, but there was a lot of risk,” Sprecher says, listing the regulatory changes in favor of crypto and prediction markets under the current administration. “This was the moment to invest if we wanted to still be early in the space.”

In the last few months, Trump’s Truth Social and sportsbook FanDuel, as well as cryptocurrency exchanges Crypto.com, Coinbase and Gemini all announced their own plans to offer prediction markets. Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev said prediction markets, which were integrated into its platform in March, were helping drive record activity for the retail brokerage in its third quarter earnings call.

“People are starting to realize right now that the opportunities are endless,” says Dubin, the billionaire hedge fund veteran who invested in Polymarket earlier this year. He points to sports betting companies, which have been regulated by states as gambling activity and taxed accordingly. States like New York can tax up to 51% of sportsbooks’ revenue, but federally-regulated prediction markets can bypass state laws, avoiding taxes and operating in all 50 states. With the realization that prediction markets could upend the sports betting industry—which brought in $13.7 billion in revenue in 2024—businesses are quickly jumping on board despite pushback from state gambling regulators. In October, both Polymarket and Kalshi secured partnerships with sportsbook PrizePicks and the National Hockey League, and Polymarket announced exclusive partnerships with sportsbook DraftKings and the Ultimate Fighting Championship.

The disruption won’t be limited to sports betting. Alongside its investment, Intercontinental’s tens of thousands of institutional clients including large hedge funds and over 750 third-party providers of data will soon have access to Polymarket data, as it gets integrated into Intercontinental’s products such as indices to better inform investment decisions. It also hopes to work with Polymarket to work on initiatives around tokenization—or converting financial assets into digital tokens on blockchain technology—to allow traders on Intercontinental’s exchanges to trade more flexibly at all hours of the day, Sprecher says. What’s more, in November, Google Finance announced it would integrate Polymarket and Kalshi data into its search results, while Yahoo Finance also announced an exclusive partnership with Polymarket.

Despite flashy investors, partnerships and a record $2.4 billion of trading volume in November, Polymarket has yet to launch in the U.S. or turn a profit. Coplan and his investors have hinted at ways the company could make money one day—selling its data, charging fees to users, launching a cryptocurrency token (similar to Ethereum or Bitcoin)—but decline to confirm any specifics. For now, the only thing that’s certain is the bet Coplan is making on himself. “Going for it and having it not pan out is an infinitely better outcome than living your life as a what if,” he says.

Standing across from the New York Stock Exchange building, Coplan tilts his head up as he watches a massive banner with Polymarket’s logo get hoisted onto the exterior of the building. It’s been five years since founding. One year since the FBI raid. He’s taking it all in. “Against all odds,” the bright blue banner reads, rippling in the wind alongside three American flags protruding from the building.
