How we were legally enslaved
My crib notes on the tricks used to get us to relinquish out birthright
September 13, 2023

I have just finished reading this rather excellent summary of all the iniquities of council tax in England. If you are having to go out to work in order to pay the pension of someone else who has no lawful claim on you, and this is done through fraud and intimidation, then you’re a slave. A part-time slave is still a slave. Forced labour is never acceptable in a free society, nor are charges for enjoying God-given rights, yet that is exactly where are. Drawing on this document, as well as my more general reading, here is my summary of how we came to be “legally enslaved”.

Godless (in)justice

At the core of the process is violation of the golden rule, which makes it a spiritual failure. This then results in the master/servant relationship of the public and the government being inverted. The divinity of the individual is denied as all kinds of fraud are perpetrated on the common man. The institutionalised spiritual powers are captured to the government-banking axis, so de facto worship Mammon. Temporal authority is elevated above all else, and people fear judgment of their bosses and peers, not in the eternal realm.

Morality of necromancy

In order to assuage the conscience of the minions who operate this system, there is an unspoken creed that adopts the morality of the dead, not the living. People are converted into objects or ideas, so there the only moral code in play is a legalistic one, not a holy one. As long as all the rules of the game of the court are followed to the letter, it doesn’t matter (to operatives of the system) whether we are doing a wicked deed, when seen through the lens of treating others as we would wish to be treated ourselves. The living (Master, Baron) are given the titles of the dead (Mister, Mr, Mrs, Miss, Ms, Lord, Lady), converting us into mere assets of the legal system.

Administrative inversion of rights

In the world of Roman commercial courts, social normalities are inverted: we are presumed to be childlike illiterate paupers who are so incompetent that we need the guardianship of the court. There is no place for any court involving ordinary men and women where there is an unseen presumption of guilt, yet this is the reality we face in magistrates’ courts today. The most foundational part of our constitution, Magna Carta, has been overturned by the infiltration of administrative law. We are literally being administered as chattel of the state! People naively imagine they are in a venue that respects their humanity, as they cannot conceive of the scale of subversion.

Perversion of language

A parallel language of legalese inverts many common uses (e.g. a civil summons being merely an invitation, a mandate being a request and not an order, enforcement not having actual force of law). “Dog latin” is a meaningless gibberish used to confuse the masses. Grammar and syntax are mangled in order to trick us into acts based on “legal artwork” with no semantic standing. Text is put in boxes, rendering it legally invisible but socially effective, and the “four corner rule” is commonly ignored. Legislation redefines words, so in the case of council tax we have a “pseudodebt” that is not a real sum owed. A Liability Order™ is not a valid court order, and carries no liability for anything.

Evasion of personal accountability

It is common for official communications to come with no actual named man or woman responsible, no signature proving provenance, and a PO Box for return which is a fictional address. We are denied the ability to hold the individual to account for their ultra vires actions that go outside of the lawful remit of their role. They can act anonymously, and have no fear of being confronted in ordinary life for their actions. The administrative edifice presents a solid blank wall, and protects those who support its criminal acts. Corporations cannot speak to a (wo)man; only another (wo)man can.

Swapping of legal and lawful

Functionaries routinely justify their actions as being legal, citing relevant statute legislation. This is a trick: the relevant standard is whether they are lawful, which requires reference to equity, constitutional law, international law, military law, common law, and case law. If you are conducting a subversive infiltration of a free society on behalf of foreign powers, pointing to an abusive rule that you are following is no lawful excuse. The Coronavirus Act 2020 demonstrated this legalised erosion of civil liberties amply — war crimes being committed as health measures. The rule of law is not merely the unthinking application of legislation.

Registration as voluntary enslavement

When we register for anything — a birth, a driver, a marriage — then we are “voluntarily” surrendering our innate rights to another, and in return accepting the benefits or privileges on offer. The state uses threats and extortion tactics to get you to participate in this commercialised reframing of society, but there is no fundamental requirement for you to register a newborn to anyone, nor to surrender your right to travel in your own carriage, or get permission to form a sacred sexual union with another. The whole system is dependent on it being normal to act like a servant, and to treat the state as your master. If enough people revolt, it’s all over.

Confusion via doppelgänger trusts (Your Strawman)

Our birth certificates establish a trust in a name that appears to be us, but is actually granted to a third party; we are merely the beneficiary who is “lost at sea”. Our whole legal system is based on a shell game of persuading the living man to act as the trustee, taking on liabilities he does not owe to anyone, and relinquishing the benefits of being the beneficiary. These trusts are routinely administered by courts without the consent of the beneficiary. All of these trusts should be collapsed as fraud, and the assets retuned to the beneficiary.

Deprecation of equity law

The highest law are the rules of equity, as they trump all other case law, legal maxims, and legislation. The essence of equity is that we are all equal under the law, and that the job of justice is to restore peace and harmony where equity is disturbed. The average person is completely unaware of the rules of equity, and legal arguments based in equity are routinely ignored in lower courts. Hence justice based in equity tends to only be available to the wealthy and well-informed; without equity, an “elite” class of people above the law is balanced with one of “cubicle workers” below it.

Substitution of jurisdiction

As an extension of the points above on necromancy and trusts, it is commonplace for police and courts to act out of their jurisdiction, and to ignore the requirement for consent to act in non-criminal matters. Infractions of policy (offences) are not crimes, since there is no victim or complainant. The invention of “Regina” or “Rex” as the other party is a complete fiction, since they cannot be challenged or examined in court. Administrative courts feign the processes of legitimate civil or criminal courts, but are completely unconstitutional.

Swapping form for substance

Breaches of rules get merged into criminal law, and “fake fines” for breaches of form and not substance appear everywhere. So when you accidentally drive into a bus lane and get a penalty notice, you have crossed a painted marking (form) but caused no delay to anyone (substance). Without evidence of others being held up by your carelessness, there is no wrongdoing or complainant. Over time, the law becomes preoccupied with form, and the underlying substance is abandoned. A parallel reality that is the playground of tyrants emerges.

False doctrine of Parliamentary sovereignty

In the C18th there was a formalisation of the overreach of power by the legislature and executive through the doctrine of “Parliamentary sovereignty”. It ought to have been a limited measure: only legislation passed by Parliament itself is valid law, Parliament governs the executive exclusively, and no Parliament can bind a future one. Instead, it has become an excuse for unaccountable and unconstitutional power grabs, that deny the sovereignty of the people as delegated to the monarch through the coronation oath. Parliamentary sovereignty is repeated as fact and law, but it is merely the opinion of past commentators.

Merger of powers that ought to be separate

Freedom is maintained via a separation of powers, and the resulting checks and balances. In the last century we have seen the de facto merger of the executive with the legislature, and the fusion of the political establishment into a uniparty that sustains its power no matter who is nominally in charge. In the case of council tax, the billing authority, the prosecuting authority, and the enforcement authority are all the same: the council demands money off you, prosecutes you, and also runs its own private court.

Dilution of trial by jury

Jury selection has been notoriously subjected to rigging over the last few decades. However, the rot is deeper. Juries do not have to be unanimous in meting out punishment, which allows for a kind of mob rule by jury. They have lost their power to determine what is a conscionable punishment, that having been taken by the professional judiciary. Most seriously, the annulment of unfair laws has been rejected by the establishment, despite is never being acceptable for a juror to enforce a law that goes against their conscience. Therefore the key check on legislative overreach has been removed. Democracy is not the act of voting or universal suffrage; is the people having the power to restrain the government.

State monopoly on enforcement

The disarming of the general population and the delegation of all enforcement to processionals has unfortunate consequences. Those in power do not fear the people, and the role of enforcers (like debt collection agencies) grows to cover theft from the people. No amount of letter wring and games in court will resolve the matter if the enforcers only answer to corrupt powers who seek money and control, and the police refuse to do their job, taking the side of the robbers. When someone comes to take your property under a legalistic pretext, they need to have a genuine concern that those being predated might fight back. There is no peace without projectile power.

No militia or military skin in the game

When things go wrong and tyranny appears, then we need to fight back. Ideally this is done through civic institutions, and when that fails, the only option is military. Yet the population has become disengaged from military action, and it has become a niche activity done by a standing army. There is no experience of weapons of war, and no cultural memory of the discipline of being in a fighting force. People have come to expect others, largely drawn from lower social classes, will engage in geographically remote acts of personal sacrifice in the name of their preferred ideology. The average person does not fear being drafted to deal with the consequences of their vote. The refusal to physically fight back against tyrants in the short run ensures genocide or civil war in the long run.

Ignorance of birthright by indoctrination of the young

We are all entitled to our inheritance of customs and laws, and this is explicitly stated in legislation like the Act of Settlement 1700. The young are taught nothing about this, and indeed are given a false understanding of our system of government that puts them in a place of servant to their tax farm masters. Knowledge of past revolts and rebellions is suppressed or warped. Settled constitutional law is explained away as “ancient” and “outdated” in a postmodern interpretation of jurisprudence. Our whole system of schooling emphasises the need to conform and follow rules, denying individual autonomy and rights. Civics classes teach Marxist ideas, ruining our future.

Outright fraud by authorities

Tyranny preferentially operates via fraud, and only resorts to force when fraud fails. The example of council tax illustrates how fraud is endemic and supported by the establishment. These are naked frauds, like the council pretending to be a court, when it is not. These frauds are standard business practise, such as a police officer attempting to trick you into joinder when he or she stops your car, yet there is no crime being committed. Utility billing companies with whom you have no actual supply relationship make false presentations to the public to defraud them. Once you see the scale and normalisation of fraud by a parasite class, you cannot unsee it.

Force and intimidation

When fraud fails, then there is force. An army of debt collectors and enforcement agents goes around harassing and intimidating the public into surrendering their assets and rights. These are manifestly unlawful, and routinely break laws on blackmail, theft, and data protection. It is standard practise for councils, utilities, and debt collectors to make unlawful threats of force. When confronted with people resisting tyranny, the police commonly apply more brutishness, as we found with masks and Covid. A society that delegates all its force to institutionalised professionals will invariably end up being held captive to those interests in time.

Corruption of policing

The police are the lynchpin of all this, because that’s where the hard enforcement power lies. We have confused the role of constable (an independent actor beholden only to the public) with a police officer (whose loyalty is to their force and follows orders). The police have been diverted into censoring speech and enforcing secular morals, which is nothing to do with the detection and prevention of crime. Their oaths have been modified and watered down, no longer having allegiance to the rule of law and its impartial application. They have no interest in holding their paymasters to account.

Legalised bribery of minions

Those who staff the councils, courts, and police are given a legalised bribery deal: toe the line, don’t rock the boat, and you will get your taste of freedom with a generous state-backed pension. It’s like a mafia where they all have each others’ back, as long as you keep allegiance to the institution and ignore the law. Consistent, unquestioned, diligent lawbreaking is rewarded with a tolerable salary and comfortable early retirement. Whistleblowers are treated with the greatest harshness, and are made an example of. Most people are easily bought off with the promise of a few years of cruise ships and a new kitchen. Meanwhile, those who are predated suffer poverty, sickness, and earth death.

Treason as standard business practise

The situation is not easily righted as treason becomes normalised, and the most senior courts in the land abandon their oath of office to serve the interests of secret societies or foreign powers (like the EU). Blackmail networks like Epstein Island silently compromise officials. When treason goes unprosecuted, a psychopathic culture blossoms. Breach of trust and betrayal of oath becomes normal, and nobody fears the gallows as a result. Treason is the most important crime, because it is the only one that imperils a whole people and society. It has to carry the death sentence, as recidivism is collective suicide. When we shy away from this, we become enslaved to traitors.

Human (and gender) rights that muddy the waters

There is a whole sub-industry of human rights activists and lawyers, largely allied to NGOs. The Covid scamdemic proved them to be worse than useless. Nothing in human rights legislation protected us from attempted genocide. All the rights we needed were the ones were granted by the creator when we were born, or pre-existed in treaties, compacts, and constitutional statutes. It just took warriors to act. We are (free) men and women, and everything “human” seems to dilute that base reality. The departure from that foundation, and the confusion of male and female roles in society, appears to have had catastrophic results. Freedom ultimately depends on someone having the strength to raise a sword in anger against a dangerous foe, possibly literally.

Our own failure to insist on lawful due process

It is generally wrong to blame the victim of a crime, but there is a contribution we have as the public to the failure we now confront. The price of freedom is indeed eternal participation in mundane civic affairs like juries and school boards. When we leave those matters to activists, we suffer terrible losses of freedom. We refuse to learn about affidavits, fail to rebut their notices, don’t correct our status, and won’t administer our trusts. We then languish at home while their courts quasi-legally rape us. Laziness, cowardice, and timidity keep us in a one-down place, and we roll over and accept the infractions of our putative rulers with only mutterings of complaint to each other. We have failed to step up, and now it’s a mess.

Understanding the Crypto Alt Season

The next altcoin season is poised to ignite the crypto market, promising to turn savvy investors' portfolios into goldmines. As Bitcoin's dominance wanes, a new era of blockchain innovation is dawning—are you ready to ride the wave?

Market behavior often exhibits distinct patterns and cycles. One such phenomenon that has captured the attention of traders and investors alike is the "Alt Season"—a period when alternative cryptocurrencies, or "altcoins," outperform Bitcoin and experience significant price surges.

The concept of market cycles and seasonality is not unique to crypto; it's a well-established principle in traditional financial markets. However, in volatile crypto space, these cycles can be more pronounced and occur with greater frequency.  

In this article, we’ll try to cover these and other topics: 

  1. The nature and characteristics of Alt Seasons
  2. The importance of recognizing market cycles in cryptocurrency trading
  3. Alt Season indicators and how to interpret them
  4. Predictions and speculatins about the next potential Alt Season

What Is Crypto Alt Season?

Crypto Alt Season, short for "Alternative Cryptocurrency Season," refers to a period in the cryptocurrency market when alternative cryptocurrencies (altcoins) significantly outperform Bitcoin in terms of price appreciation. During an Alt Season:

  1. Many altcoins experience rapid price increases.
  2. The market share of altcoins grows relative to Bitcoin.
  3. Trading volume for altcoins typically increases.
  4. Investor attention shifts from Bitcoin to various altcoin projects.

An Alt Season can last anywhere from a few weeks to several months. It's often characterized by increased risk appetite among investors, who are willing to allocate more capital to smaller, potentially higher-risk crypto projects in search of higher returns.

Is Crypto Season the Same As Crypto Alt Season?

While related, Crypto Season and Crypto Alt Season are not exactly the same:

  1. Crypto Season:
    • Refers to a broader bullish period in the entire cryptocurrency market.
    • Typically includes price appreciation for both Bitcoin and altcoins.
    • Can be longer in duration, sometimes lasting for many months or even a year or more.
    • Often starts with a Bitcoin rally, followed by increased interest in the broader crypto market.
  2. Crypto Alt Season:
    • Specifically focuses on the outperformance of altcoins compared to Bitcoin.
    • Can occur within a broader Crypto Season but is more narrowly defined.
    • Generally shorter in duration than a full Crypto Season.
    • May happen towards the latter part of a broader Crypto Season, as investors seek higher returns in smaller cap coins.

Key Differences:

  • Scope: Crypto Season encompasses the entire market, while Alt Season focuses on altcoins.
  • Duration: Crypto Seasons are generally longer than Alt Seasons.
  • Market Dynamics: In a Crypto Season, Bitcoin often leads the rally, while in an Alt Season, altcoins outperform Bitcoin.

It's important to note that these terms are not officially defined and can be subject to different interpretations within the cryptocurrency community. However, understanding the distinction can help investors and traders better analyze market trends and potential opportunities in different segments of the crypto market.

What Is Alt Season Indicator?

The Alt Season Indicator is a tool used by cryptocurrency traders and investors to gauge whether the market is entering or currently in an "Alt Season" — a period when altcoins are outperforming Bitcoin. While there isn't a single, universally accepted Alt Season Indicator, several metrics and tools are commonly used to assess the likelihood of an Alt Season. Here are some key aspects of Alt Season Indicators:

Bitcoin Dominance

One of the most widely used indicators is Bitcoin Dominance, which measures Bitcoin's market capitalization as a percentage of the total cryptocurrency market cap.

  • Calculation: (Bitcoin Market Cap / Total Crypto Market Cap) * 100
  • Interpretation: A declining Bitcoin Dominance often signals a potential Alt Season, as it indicates that capital is flowing from Bitcoin into altcoins.
  • Threshold: Some traders consider Bitcoin Dominance below 50% as a potential indicator of an Alt Season.

Altcoin Market Cap Ratio

This indicator compares the total market capitalization of altcoins to Bitcoin's market cap.

  • Calculation: Total Altcoin Market Cap / Bitcoin Market Cap
  • Interpretation: An increasing ratio suggests growing strength in the altcoin market relative to Bitcoin.

Top 10 Altcoins Performance

This indicator tracks the performance of the top 10 altcoins by market cap (excluding Bitcoin) compared to Bitcoin over a specific period.

  • Calculation: Average percentage gain of top 10 altcoins vs. Bitcoin's percentage gain
  • Interpretation: When a majority of top altcoins consistently outperform Bitcoin, it may indicate an Alt Season.

Alt Season Index

Some crypto data platforms offer a proprietary Alt Season Index, which combines various metrics to provide a single score indicating the likelihood of an Alt Season.

  • Scale: Often presented as a percentage or a 0-100 score
  • Interpretation: Higher scores (e.g., above 75%) suggest a higher probability of an ongoing Alt Season

Trading Volume Ratios

This indicator compares the trading volumes of altcoins to Bitcoin's trading volume.

  • Calculation: Total Altcoin Trading Volume / Bitcoin Trading Volume
  • Interpretation: An increase in this ratio may indicate growing interest in altcoins, potentially signaling an Alt Season.

Important Considerations:

  1. No single indicator is foolproof. Traders often use a combination of indicators for a more comprehensive analysis.
  2. Market conditions can change rapidly, and past patterns don't guarantee future results.
  3. Different traders may use different thresholds or interpretations of these indicators.
  4. The crypto market's evolving nature means that indicators may need to be adjusted over time to remain relevant.

Understanding and effectively using Alt Season Indicators can help traders and investors make more informed decisions about allocating their resources between Bitcoin and altcoins. However, it's crucial to combine these indicators with broader market analysis and risk management strategies.

Alt Seasons: Historical Perspective, Current Situation, and Future Predictions

Previous Altcoin Seasons

In crypto, two periods stand out as particularly significant for altcoins. These "alt seasons" saw unprecedented growth and interest in cryptocurrencies beyond Bitcoin, reshaping the landscape of digital assets.

The 2017-2018 Alt Season

Duration: December 2017 to January 2018

Context:

  • Bitcoin (BTC) experienced its most remarkable bull run to date, reaching nearly $20,000 in December 2017.
  • This surge in Bitcoin's price and public interest created a ripple effect throughout the crypto market.

Key Developments:

  1. Proliferation of New Coins: The success of Bitcoin catalyzed the launch of numerous new cryptocurrencies.
  2. Investor Frenzy: Buoyed by Bitcoin's success, investors eagerly sought the "next Bitcoin," pouring capital into various altcoins.
  3. ICO Boom: This period saw a surge in Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), with many projects raising millions in a matter of hours or days.
  4. Market Expansion: The total cryptocurrency market cap reached unprecedented levels, briefly surpassing $800 billion in January 2018.

Notable Altcoins: Ethereum (ETH), Ripple (XRP), and Litecoin (LTC) saw significant price increases during this period.

The 2020-2021 Alt Season

Duration: December 2020 to April 2021

Context:

  • Bitcoin broke its previous all-time high, surpassing $60,000 in March 2021.
  • The COVID-19 pandemic had accelerated digital adoption and increased interest in alternative investments.

Key Developments:

  1. DeFi Explosion: Decentralized Finance (DeFi) projects gained massive traction, with many tokens seeing exponential growth.
  2. NFT Boom: Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) entered the mainstream, driving interest in blockchain-based digital assets.
  3. Institutional Adoption: Major companies and institutional investors began adding cryptocurrencies to their balance sheets.
  4. Technological Advancements: Many altcoins introduced innovative features, scaling solutions, and use cases.

Notable Altcoins: Ethereum (ETH) reached new highs, while projects like Binance Coin (BNB), Cardano (ADA), and Polkadot (DOT) saw remarkable growth.

Comparative Analysis: Both alt seasons shared some common characteristics:

  • They were preceded by significant Bitcoin price rallies.
  • New projects and tokens gained rapid popularity and valuation.
  • Retail investor participation increased dramatically.
  • The overall cryptocurrency market capitalization reached new heights.

However, the 2020-2021 alt season was marked by greater institutional involvement and a broader range of technological innovations, particularly in DeFi and NFTs.

Is It Alt Season?

Based on the indicators discussed above, it's not currently an altcoin season. The Altcoin Season Index at 41 and Bitcoin's market dominance at 61.3% both suggest that Bitcoin is still the dominant force in the crypto market at this time.

When Is Alt Season?

Based on the information we could gather from various experts, we can analyze the predictions for the next altcoin season as follows:

  • Based on the latest analysis from experts and on-chain data, here’s what we know about the next altcoin season:

     

    Current Status (August 2025):

     

    • The altcoin season index—a metric that signals how many altcoins outperform Bitcoin—currently sits around 37. For a “full-blown” alt season, it typically needs to rise above 75.

    • Bitcoin dominance is approximately 61-62%. Historically, dropping below 60% often coincides with a rapid rotation into altcoins and the start of alt season.

     

    Key Indicators to Watch:

     

    • Altcoin Season Index (ASI): Above 75 signals a true altcoin season.

    • Bitcoin Dominance: A move below 60% usually marks the transition; sub-50% dominance is associated with peak alt season inflows.

    • Market Activity: Increasing volumes in major altcoins and Layer 1s, meme coin rallies, and spikes in DeFi activity are early warning signs.

    • Ethereum Outperformance: When ETH surges relative to BTC, this historically precedes broader altcoin rallies.

     

    Expert Predictions for 2025:

     

    • Analysts point to a pivotal window for alt season starting as early as August 2025 and extending through the fall, with many expecting true acceleration of altcoin gains if Bitcoin’s price consolidates and capital rotates further into alts.

    • There is strong consensus that macroeconomic catalysts, such as potential U.S. interest rate cuts and ongoing Bitcoin ETF momentum, could fuel a major altcoin rally in late 2025 if positive conditions persist.

    Summary Table: Key Factors & Targets

    SignalAlt Season TriggerStatus (Aug 2025)
    Altcoin Season Index (ASI)>75 ~37
    Bitcoin dominance<60% ~61–62% (near trigger)
    Altcoin trading volumeSustained surge across many alts Rising, but not explosive
    Ethereum outperformanceETH/ BTC breakout, >$3,700 Near, ETH ~$3,500
    Market narrativesAI, DeFi, meme coins, new L1 inflows Strengthening
     

    Bottom Line:
    Most analysts agree the groundwork for altcoin season in 2025 is building. We are currently in a transition phase: if Bitcoin dominance continues to fall and the Altcoin Season Index rises above 75, a full-fledged alt season could ignite during the second half of 2025. Monitor these key indicators to stay ahead as market momentum shifts from Bitcoin into a broader range of altltcoins.

Key Factors to Consider

  • Technology: Look for coins with innovative solutions to existing blockchain challenges.
  • Adoption: Consider projects with growing partnerships and real-world use cases.
  • Market Position: Established coins with room for growth may offer a balance of stability and potential returns.
  • Tokenomics: Understanding supply dynamics can help predict potential price movements.

It's crucial to conduct thorough research before investing. The cryptocurrency market is highly volatile, and past performance doesn't guarantee future results. Always invest responsibly and within your risk tolerance.

How to Win in Next Alt Season?

Capitalizing on the next altcoin season requires a strategic approach. Here's how to maximize potential gains:

  • Research and Diversification: Thoroughly research potential investments, analyzing both fundamentals and technical aspects to identify promising altcoins. Diversify your holdings across different projects to mitigate risk and maximize potential returns. Don't put all your eggs in one basket.
  • Strategic Timing: Utilize technical analysis tools like support/resistance levels and RSI to pinpoint optimal entry and exit points. Monitor market sentiment and price trends to make informed decisions. A clear entry and exit strategy is crucial for managing risk and maximizing profits during volatile periods.
  • Newer Projects: Consider participating in newer altcoin projects. This provides early access to potentially high-growth projects at discounted prices. Research upcoming defi projects with use cases, focusing on innovative projects with strong potential. Investing early can yield substantial returns as the project develops.

Conclusion

In summary, an altcoin season, marked by significant price increases in non-Bitcoin cryptocurrencies, may be on the horizon.  This potential surge could be driven by investors seeking higher returns in smaller-cap cryptocurrencies, technological advancements in altcoin projects, increased blockchain adoption, and the transition of projects from speculative ventures to real-world applications

Remember, while the potential for significant gains exists during an altcoin season, the cryptocurrency market remains highly volatile. Always invest responsibly.

PYTH: We'll Always Have Coldplay

Welcome back to The Epicenter, where crypto chaos meets corporate cringe.

But surprisingly, crypto has not been the most chaotic corner of the internet as of late.

That honor goes to the startup Astronomer, whose CEO’s cheating scandal broke the web in a glorious meme-fueled media frenzy. The company’s damage control? Hiring Gwyneth Paltrow as a “temporary spokesperson.” Do we think they’re grasping at straws or setting a new standard for PR?

Meanwhile, the markets didn’t blink. BTC is still flexing near its all-time highs. Michael Saylor’s bringing a bitcoin-adjacent money-market product to Wall Street. A pharma company just earmarked $700M to stack BNB, and analysts are calling time of death on the four-year crypto cycle. It’s a steady boom now, kittens.

A few things that are also worth noting: Winklevoss vs. JPMorgan, Visa’s take on stablecoins, and Robinhood’s Euro drama that defies the chillness of eurosummer.

4 Fintech Companies 💸& Things To Know About 🤔

The fintech revolution is reshaping the way we manage, invest, and move money, breaking down traditional barriers and empowering individuals worldwide. As financial technology continues to evolve at a rapid pace, a select group of innovative companies are leading the charge by offering groundbreaking solutions that redefine banking, payments, and digital assets. Whether you’re a savvy investor, an industry professional, or simply curious about the future of finance, discovering these trailblazing fintech companies is essential to understanding today’s dynamic financial landscape.

 

  1.  Alina Invest - The AI Wealth Manager for GenZ Women

Alina is aimed at women under 25 who identify as beginner investors. They're an SEC-registered investment advisor that charges $120/year for membership. The service "buys and sells for you" and gives up notification updates of recent transactions like a wealth manager would.

👉 Getting people to invest early is crucial to building long-term wealth. One thing that holds them back is a lack of confidence and experience. Being targetted "for beginners" and people who live on TikTok should appeal. I love the sense of "we're buying and selling for you." Funds always do that, but making it an engagement mechanic is very smart. The risk here is that building a wealth business will take decades for the AUM to compound. But the next generations, Wealthfront or Betterment, will look something like Alina.

2. Blue layer - The Carbon project funding platform

Bluelayer allows Carbon project developers to take from feasibility studies to issuing credits, tracking inventory, and managing orders. Developers of reforestation, conservation, direct air capture, and other projects can also directly report to industry registries. 

👉 Carbon investing and tax credits are heavily incentivized but need transparent data. By focusing on the developers, Bluelayer can ensure the data, reporting, and credits lifecycle is all managed at the source. This is smart.

3. Akirolabs - Modern Procurement for enterprise

Akiro is a "strategic" procurement platform aiming to help enterprise customers identify risks, value drivers, and strategic levers before issuing an RFP. It aims to bring in multiple stakeholders for complex purchasing decisions at multinationals. 

👉 Procurement is a great wedge for multinational corporate transformation. Buying anything in an enterprise that uses large-scale ERPs is a nightmare of committees and spreadsheets. Turning an oil tanker-sized organization around is difficult, but the right suppliers can have a meaningful impact in the short term. That only works if you can buy from them. Getting people on the same page with a single platform is a great start.

4. NeoTax - Automated Tax R&D Credits

NeoTax allows companies to connect their engineering tools to calculate available tax advantages automatically. Once calculated, the tax fillings are clearly labeled with supporting evidence for the IRS.

👉 AWS and GCP log files and data are a goldmine. Last week, I covered Bilanc, which uses log files to figure out per-account unit economics. Now, we calculate R&D tax credits. The unlock here is LLM's ability to understand unstructured data. The hard part is understanding the moat, but time will tell.

In an era where technology and finance are increasingly intertwined, these four fintech companies stand out as catalysts for positive change. By driving progress in digital payments, asset management, lending, and decentralized finance, they are not only making financial services more accessible and efficient—they are also paving the way for a more inclusive and empowered global economy. Staying informed about their innovations can help you seize new opportunities and take part in the future of finance.

 

👀Things to know 👀

 

PayPal issued low guidance and warned of a “transition year.” The stock is down 8% in extended trading despite PayPal reporting a 9% growth in revenue and 23% EBITDA. Gross profit is down 4% YoY. PayPal's total revenues were $29Bn for the year

Adyen reported 22% revenue growth and an EBITDA margin of 46% for the full year. Adyen's total revenues were $1.75bn for the full year. The margin was down from 55% the previous year, impacted by hiring ahead of growth.

🤔 PayPal’s Braintree (unbranded) is losing market share in the US, while Adyen is winning it. eCommerce is growing ~9 to 10% YoY, and PayPal’s transaction revenue grew by 6.7%. The higher interest rate environment meant interest on balances dragged up the total revenue figure. Their core business is losing market share. Adyen is outgrowing the market by ~12%.

🤔 The PayPal button (branded) is losing to SHOP Pay and Apple Pay. The branded experience from Apple and Shopify is delightful for users; it’s fast and helps with small details like delivery tracking. That experience translates to higher conversion (and more revenue) for merchants.

🤔 The lack of a single global platform hurts PayPal, but it helps Adyen. In the earnings call, the new CEO admitted their mix of platforms like Venmo, PayPal, and Braintree are holding them back. They aim to combine and simplify, but that’s easier said than done.

🤔 Making a single platform from PayPal, Venmo, and Braintree won’t be easy. There’s a graveyard of payment company CEOs who tried to make “one platform” from things they acquired years ago. It’s crucial if they’re going to grow that they get their innovation edge back. Adyen has one platform in every market.

🤔 PayPal’s UK and European acquiring business is a bright spot. The UK and EU delivered 20% of overall revenue, growing 11% YoY. Square and Toast don’t have market share here, while iZettle, which PayPal acquired in 2018, is a strong market player. Overall though, it’s yet another tech stack and business that’s not part of a single global platform.

The two banks provided accounts to UK front companies secretly owned by an Iranian petrochemicals company. PCC has used these entities to receive funds from Iranian entities in China, concealed with trustee agreements and nominee directors. 

🤔 This is the headline every bank CEO fears. Oof. Shares of both banks have been down since the news broke, but this will no doubt involve crisis calls, committees, appearing in front of the regulator, and, finally, some sort of fine.

🤔 The "risk-based approach" has been arbitraged. A UK company with relatively low annual revenue would look "low risk" at onboarding. One business the FT covered looked like a small company at a residential address to compliance staff. They'd likely apply branch-level controls instead of the enterprise-grade controls you'd see for a large corporation. 

🤔 Hiring more staff won't fix this problem; it's a mindset and technology challenge. In theory, all of the skill and technology that exists to manage risks with large corporate customers (in the transaction banking divisions) are available to the other parts of a bank. In practice, they're not. Most banks lack a single data set and the ability for compliance officers in one team to see data from another part of the org. Getting the basics right with data and tooling is incredibly hard and will involve a multi-year effort. 

🤔 These things are rarely the failure of an individual or department; the issue is systemic. While two banks are named in this headline, the issue is everywhere. Banks need more data and better data to train better AI and machine learning. That all needs to happen in real-time as a compliment to the human staff. Throwing bodies at this won't solve the visibility issue teams have.
