Food. Bank Account. GONE. (Here's What They're Hiding About Bitcoin in 2026) | Simply Originals · Simply Bitcoin

0:00
Do you understand what happened in the last 72 hours?
0:05
I'm not being dramatic. I'm being the opposite of
0:08
dramatic. I'm the calmest person in the
0:10
room right now. Calmer you are, which is
0:12
absolutely terrifying because I'm barely holding it together.
0:16
Let me read you a list. Egypt shut down shops at 9:00
0:20
PM, mandatory work from home Sundays.
0:23
The government internally called it.
0:24
And I want you to hear these words.
0:27
War economy mode, four days. And that came four days after
0:31
the IMF just praised them and unlocked 2.3 billion.
0:36
Turkey, their central bank, burned through 30 billion in
0:40
March alone defending the lira and their finance minister is
0:44
now floating the idea of selling their national gold reserves.
0:49
That's that's what you do when everything is in tip top shape.
0:52
Pakistan, their Prime Minister went on national TV to announce
0:56
salary cuts and a 50% fuel allocation reduction.
1:00
Mother Russia, Putin signed a law banning citizens from taking
1:04
cash above 100K out of the country.
1:07
Gold bars above 100 grams gone. They're fighting the shadow
1:12
economy or something, they said. Wait a minute, he said shadow
1:15
economy. Iraq banned 22 banks from dollar
1:19
transactions and they have a cashless mandate coming for all
1:23
government institutions in July 2026.
1:27
South Korea launched A literal wartime economic response body
1:31
on March 25th, chaired by the Prime Minister.
1:35
India quietly, and I mean quietly, created a $6.7 billion
1:41
economic stabilization fund buried in a budget supplement
1:45
like they were hoping you wouldn't notice it between the
1:47
footnotes. No, that's just the Armageddon
1:51
fund and Lebanon currency down 98%.
1:54
The war has added 14 billion in additional damage on top of
1:59
that. That's eight countries in one
2:01
week. And every single one of these
2:03
governments told their citizens in the last 30 days that the
2:07
economy was fine. Fine.
2:10
The World Uncertainty Index, not a Bitcoin blog, not a podcast,
2:15
the actual academic world Uncertainty Index just hit a 105
2:20
K, the highest level in recorded history.
2:23
Higher than COVID, higher than 911, higher than the Iraq war,
2:28
higher than the 2008 global financial crisis, higher than
2:32
all of it combined. I don't even know what that
2:34
means, but welcome to simply Bitcoin originals.
2:37
I'm Rustin and today we we are going to cover the most insane
2:41
week of news arguably in modern history.
2:44
We're going to talk about food, we're going to talk about money,
2:47
and we're going to talk about who's coming for your
2:49
retirement. And we're going to tell you the
2:52
1 exit that exists from all of it.
2:55
We got the clips, we got the receipts, we got the means.
2:58
Because if you can't laugh, you cry.
3:01
But honestly, both responses are medically appropriate.
3:07
Let's get into it. Send it before before we get
3:14
into the full breakdown, I need to set the table because there's
3:18
a thing happening on the media right now where they're pointing
3:21
at Iran like it's the only story on the board.
3:26
Iran war missiles, Strait of Hormuz.
3:29
And yes, the Iran war is real. The stakes are real.
3:33
The closed straight is real. We're going to get there.
3:37
But while everyone is watching that fire, there are 15 other
3:41
fires being lit behind them. And one of those fires, the one
3:45
Mark Moscot, is going to affect your money more directly than
3:49
any missile ever could. While the whole world is
3:52
watching Iran right now, something happened this week
3:54
that most people completely missed.
3:57
Trump publicly went to war with the banks, and I don't mean
4:00
metaphorically. I mean, he called them out by
4:02
name. And the reason why this matters
4:04
to you is simple. The outcome of this fight will
4:06
determine which side of the biggest wealth transfer of our
4:09
lifetime you end up on. The biggest wealth transfer of
4:14
our lifetime? Not clickbait.
4:16
That's the thesis. And today we prove it.
4:20
Two wars are being fought simultaneously. 1 is in the
4:25
Middle East. Everyone sees it.
4:27
The other war is over the financial system itself, Over
4:31
your money, your retirement, your savings.
4:34
And most people, they basically have no idea what's happening.
4:37
So today we cover both. And we tell you exactly where to
4:41
stand when the dust settles. Let me take you through these
4:45
countries 1 by 1, because you need to actually feel the weight
4:48
of this. Reading the list is one thing,
4:50
but understanding what each of these means is another.
4:55
Egypt, the IMF, the institution that supposedly monitors global
4:59
economic health, four days before Egypt went into war
5:03
economy mode, literally praised Egypt and handed them 2.3
5:08
billion. Four days later, war economy
5:12
mode. That's like your doctor saying
5:14
you're perfectly healthy, shaking your hand, billing your
5:17
insurance, and then four days later you're in a coma.
5:21
At what point do we stop trusting the doctor?
5:25
This is just a metaphor for this thing.
5:28
You should probably trust your doctor.
5:30
Turkey, their central bank, burned through $30 billion in
5:35
one month defending the lira 30 billion.
5:38
That's not a leak in the pipe. That's the pipe exploding.
5:42
And now their finance minister is floating, selling national
5:45
gold reserves. When a country starts selling,
5:48
hear me on this, that is the last resort.
5:52
Gold is what you hold when everything else is gone.
5:55
When you start selling gold, you're at the you're at the end,
5:59
the last resort. Turkey is facing a last resort
6:03
scenario. Pakistan.
6:05
The Prime Minister went on TV to announce salary cuts and a 50%
6:09
fuel allocation reduction. Imagine it is Christmas morning,
6:14
your family is gathered and your father walks out in his robe and
6:17
says good news and bad news. The Turkey is gone.
6:21
Also, we're cutting the heat in half.
6:24
That is what happened in Pakistan on a holiday.
6:28
Russia again. Russia.
6:30
Russia, Russia. Putin signed a law banning cash
6:33
exports above 100K and gold bars above 100 grants.
6:38
Fighting the shadow economy, the Kremlin said.
6:41
Right, because nothing says fighting crime like banning your
6:45
own citizens from taking their own money out of their own
6:48
country. That's not an anti crime law.
6:51
That's a capital control. It's capital controls.
6:54
That's the government saying your money is ours, you're just
6:58
holding it temporarily until we need it back.
7:00
Iraq banned 22 banks from USD transactions in July 2026.
7:07
Cashless mandate for all government institutions.
7:11
Iraq went cashless. Not Norway.
7:14
Not Singapore, Iraq. When Iraq is going cashless,
7:17
what does that tell you about where all this is heading?
7:20
It tells you governments want complete visibility into every
7:24
transaction, every dollar in, every dollar out.
7:28
They want to see it, tax it, control it and freeze it on
7:32
demand. Why do they want these things?
7:34
I don't know. They're sick people.
7:36
South Korea, one of the most sophisticated, technologically
7:40
advanced economies in the world, Battle hardened nation, economic
7:44
powerhouse in a in its own Wei launched a wartime economic
7:48
response body on March 25th, chaired by the Prime Minister.
7:52
Let that sink in. Everything is fine.
7:55
We need capital controls. And here we go.
7:57
India secretly. I keep using that word.
7:59
They keep meaning. It secretly created a $6.7
8:02
billion emergency stabilization fund buried in a budget
8:06
supplement. Why do you bury a 6.7 billion?
8:10
Maybe because you don't want to cause a panic, Because you know
8:13
what's coming, You're preparing. But you can't tell your citizens
8:17
because if you tell them, the panic could start immediately.
8:21
This is what governments do. In the hours before the storm,
8:24
they bored up the windows quietly.
8:26
They don't tell you there's a hurricane coming.
8:29
Lebanon. We could do a full show on
8:31
Lebanon. Their currency has lost 98% of
8:33
its value, 98%. If you had $100 worth of
8:37
Lebanese pounds at the start of this crisis, you now have $2.00
8:41
of purchasing power. The war added 14 billion in
8:45
additional damage on top of that.
8:46
Lebanon is not a cautionary tale about some exotic foreign
8:51
failure. Lebanon is a preview.
8:54
Lebanon is what the end state of Fiat currency collapse looks
8:58
like, and multiple governments right now are sprinting toward
9:03
that same Cliff. This is my genuine reaction to
9:07
every news headline I have read in 2026.
9:10
We are four months in. And Speaking of, let's get the
9:13
most powerful man in the world's reaction to all this.
9:16
Our economy is booming again and America is respected again all
9:19
over the world, perhaps like never before, with the help of
9:23
business leaders, innovators, allies and partners like those
9:26
in this room. Incredible people in this room.
9:29
Credible successor is the most successful people in the world.
9:33
We'll seize every opportunity, overcome every challenge, defeat
9:36
every threat, and America and our allies will thrive and
9:40
prosper and win like no nations have ever won before.
9:44
You're going to win like you've never had before.
9:47
Booming, He said. Booming.
9:49
Has anyone showed up the economy since the war?
9:52
It ain't looking good. And look, I'm not going to make
9:55
this about Trump specifically. I mean, I like the guy.
9:59
He's orange. I mean, you could ask almost any
10:03
politician today if they care about or serve the will of the
10:07
people they allegedly represent, and all you get in return is
10:11
that blank baby eating stare sick fat.
10:17
But not for long. Massive diets are are coming.
10:21
And again, this is not a partisan issue.
10:23
Every politician, every country, every party, they all have the
10:26
exact same playbook. Deny until the walls fall down.
10:30
It's a government thing, not a political thing.
10:33
They lie because the truth is too expensive to say out loud.
10:36
Oh, and while we're here, why don't we get a look at this live
10:40
footage of Trump's foreign policy advisors planning their
10:44
next move in the Strait of Hormuz?
10:54
That's the energy. That's the energy of 2026
10:57
foreign policy right now. OK, now here is the Iran story
11:03
that nobody in the mainstream media is talking about.
11:07
They're talking about oil. And yes, oil matters, but here's
11:10
what actually matters. 1/3 of the world's entire fertilizer
11:14
supply passes through that 34 kilometer straight.
11:19
Half the world's urea, which is the primary nitrogen fertilizer,
11:24
the thing that makes crops grow, moves through the same choke
11:28
point. The Strait of Hormuz is not just
11:30
an oil choke point, it is a food choke point, and right now it is
11:37
closed. So let me give you the math. 25%
11:40
of US farmers currently have no fertilizer secured.
11:43
Urea is up 68% in 28 days. Russia has implemented
11:47
fertilizer export bans. China has implemented fertilizer
11:52
export bans. Farmers who cannot plant this
11:55
spring will not have harvest this fall.
11:58
This is not a future problem. The damage is already locked in.
12:03
The food crisis is already on the calendar.
12:06
It's approximately 6 months out and there is nothing that can
12:10
stop it now. The damage is done. 318 million
12:13
people were already facing acute hunger before this war started.
12:18
The UN says 45,000,000 more could join them if the conflict
12:22
drags past June. We have 70,000 tons of food aid
12:27
sitting stranded at sea. This is not an oil crisis.
12:32
This is what Simon Dixon called a transitional theater moment.
12:37
A civilization level food shock hiding behind a war story.
12:42
And here's what the folks at Redacted found out when they
12:44
talked to someone actually in the food supply chain.
12:48
You know, I, I hate to be, I mean I am a conspiracy theorist,
12:51
but I that just means I'm a six month spoiler alert kind of guy.
12:56
You know, a friend of the show, David Icke has been saying you
12:57
need to step back from what's happening in Iran.
12:59
You need to see the larger picture here, which is they're
13:02
they're intentionally doing this, that intentional scarcity
13:05
so they can, as you pointed out during COVID, prevent us from
13:08
eating meat, right? Move us to like an all electric
13:12
future, reduce our dependency on farms, take away this land,
13:17
consolidate the consolidation control.
13:20
Is he wrong or is he right? Yeah, He's got a lot of really
13:24
valid points there. I mean, we did see all of that
13:27
happening and still perpetuating today through different
13:31
organizations. Like in the West, one of the big
13:33
things we're dealing with is the loss of of grazing land for our
13:37
cow calf ranchers. That means those particular
13:40
ranchers have Mama cows that have the babies and that feeds
13:43
into the downstream pipeline. But public land grazing, which
13:47
is like your Bureau of Land Management from the Department
13:50
of Interior or your Forest Service from USDA state trust
13:54
land, these kinds of things. Ranchers have a lease on those
13:57
to raise their cows, but you get these environmental Eng OS that
14:01
come in and they cause havoc and they'll sue and settle to reduce
14:06
the number of livestock that a rancher can produce on those
14:09
lands. You know, in the 1935 before the
14:12
tape, yeah, 1935 before the Taylor Grazing Act, we had
14:15
18,000,000, what they call AU Ms. animal units a month.
14:19
That means a Mama count, a baby cow is considered one AUM.
14:22
So in 1935 we had 18 million in the West.
14:25
Today we have 8 million because the ranchers are being squeezed
14:30
at every turn. That's our food supply live.
14:34
Yeah. Livestock on public land is what
14:37
refertilizes the soil so that we have grass while that's being
14:41
reduced. So we're seeing desertification
14:43
happening in the West because of the lack of ruminating animals.
14:46
Wildfires are out of control because the reduction of grazing
14:49
and logging. So we have these very unhealthy
14:52
forests that are tinderboxes ready to explode without the
14:56
grass. It also breaks up what we call
14:59
your what's, what's your local water cycles.
15:01
About 40% of your moisture supposed to come naturally from
15:04
local water cycles, which is created by grass and and
15:08
vegetation. That's all going away because of
15:11
these fights that that ranchers have been in and largely unheard
15:15
for decades. A six month spoiler alert kind
15:18
of guy. That's us.
15:20
That's kind of this show. We're the six month spoiler
15:23
alert. We tell you what's happening
15:25
before the mainstream admits it already has.
15:27
And the spoiler right now says famine.
15:30
Not in some distant developing country, in the developed world,
15:33
in your grocery store, in your fuel station, in your supply
15:38
chain. AJ Richards has one more thing I
15:41
need you to hear. It's not unbelievable at all.
15:44
I mean, we befriended the show. Dane Wigington, of course, from
15:46
geoengineeringwatch.org. He's been saying, if you noted,
15:50
have you seen what's happened to these farms?
15:52
Have you seen what's happening to this land?
15:54
It just the desertification of this land, the trees that are
15:57
just falling apart and just collapsing and you know, you see
16:03
what's happening with the spraying in the skies.
16:05
Has the spraying in the skies affected you in at your farms?
16:10
Yeah, in some areas. I just watched a woman today
16:15
given a testimony in South Carolina where she has a farm
16:19
and she's been monitoring, she's an animal specialist in a, in a
16:22
local farming group. So she's, you know,
16:25
knowledgeable in this. And she said she's lost 80% of
16:28
her butterflies just in the last three years because she
16:31
monitored those things. She was trying to create a
16:33
habitat for the monarch and her neighbors do bees and they've
16:37
seen significant reduction in in their bees around their farm.
16:41
And this was all focused on atmospheric or spa aerosol
16:45
sprays as the cause. That's unbelievable.
16:48
I know this morning I went out here in Colorado and three Criss
16:51
crossing patterns right in the sky.
16:53
And then within about 20 minutes I posted this on Twitter.
16:56
Within about 20 minutes, the entire area where those have
16:58
just been sprayed were fully dart fully clouded covering it
17:03
to keep the sun out, you know, because we want to dim
17:05
everything. It's it's so deeply troubling.
17:09
I can't. I just, it just disheartens me
17:13
because how are we allowing this to happen?
17:15
How are we allowing this to happen, to go from 18,000,000
17:19
animals in the 30s to a population that's exploded in
17:23
the United States and now we have 8 million?
17:26
That's right. Yeah.
17:27
We're at the lowest herd numbers since 1950s, but we've got 320
17:31
million people to feed. So this, this to me, This is why
17:35
it's been my focus. You know, all these other things
17:37
that they do matter. And, you know, I always say pick
17:40
a hill to die on because there's plenty and somebody needs you to
17:42
stand shoulder to shoulder with them.
17:44
But quite frankly, none of those hills matter if you're starving.
17:48
It really doesn't like famine is is the game.
17:52
It's the game over. It's the checkmate.
17:53
And so we need to back our family farms and ranches in this
17:57
nation. Give the people who want to
17:59
become farmers and ranchers a reason to take that on and get
18:03
into it. You know, one of the good things
18:05
that came from COVID, people woke up and one of the fastest
18:09
growing movements in the nation is homesteading.
18:12
I mean, there's a, there's so many people there.
18:14
Famine is the checkmate. It's a 99 move chess game, and
18:18
famine is the move that ends. It doesn't matter how smart your
18:22
economic policy is, doesn't matter how sophisticated your
18:26
financial system is, doesn't matter what your central bank
18:29
interest rate is. If people cannot eat,
18:32
civilization stops. Full stop.
18:35
And every single supply chain variable we're watching right
18:38
now is pointing in the same direction.
18:41
Strait of Hormuz closed, fertilizer supply collapsing,
18:45
Russian exports banned. Chinese exports banned, US farm
18:49
inventories depleted, food aid stranded 1 Domino, maybe bad
18:53
luck. Three Domino's same week.
18:56
It's like an organized plan. All right, now let's get to the
19:00
part of the show that I think is going to make your blood run
19:02
cold because the food crisis is horrifying as it is.
19:06
You can see it coming. You can prep.
19:08
You can stack extra groceries, know a local farmer grows
19:12
something in your backyard. But this next thing, this is
19:17
invisible. It's quiet, it's legal, and it's
19:20
already in motion. Fox News.
19:22
Yeah, Fox News, not some fringe newsletter, not some Bitcoin
19:25
blog, ran this headline. Wall Street could seize your
19:29
retirement savings in the next financial crash, and it's
19:33
perfectly legal. Let me say that one more time.
19:37
Slowly. Wall Street could seize your
19:40
retirement savings in the next financial crash and it is
19:44
perfectly legal. Now.
19:47
How is this possible? Let me explain what the great
19:50
taking is because I know some of you have heard of it.
19:52
We've we've showed you clips, we've done it before, and some
19:55
of you are about to have your mental model of reality
19:58
completely shattered. When you hold stocks, bonds,
20:01
mutual funds or ETFs inside your brokerage account, your 4-O1K,
20:05
your IRA, your retirement account, you don't technically
20:09
own those assets outright. You own.
20:13
What's called a security entitlement, which is legal
20:16
language for you own a claim on an asset that belongs to a
20:20
pulled account held on your broker, who holds it through a
20:24
custodian, who holds it through a central securities depository.
20:28
In plain English, if your broker goes bankrupt in a crash, you
20:31
are an unsecured creditor. The secured creditors, the big
20:36
banks, the hedge funds, they get paid first.
20:38
You get whatever's left, which in a real crash, could be
20:44
absolutely nothing. This is not a theory.
20:46
This is black letter U.S. law. It was quietly written into the
20:50
system in the 1990s while nobody was watching, while everybody
20:53
was distracted bythe.com boom. Secured creditors, big banks and
20:59
hedge funds. They get paid first.
21:01
You, the unsecured creditor, get whatever's left.
21:05
Simon Dixon has been sounding the alarm on this architecture
21:08
for years, and here's the core of what he said to Peter
21:12
McCormack. And by breaking the financial
21:14
system, we know what the end result of breaking the financial
21:17
system always is. It means that you socialize the
21:23
losses and privatize the gains. Socialize the losses, privatize
21:29
the gains. That's the entire history of
21:31
modern banking. In six words.
21:33
When the banks win, they keep the money.
21:36
When the banks lose, you pay for it through bailouts, through
21:39
quantitative easing, through inflation that destroys your
21:42
purchasing power, and ultimately through the great Taking where
21:45
they literally reclaim the assets you thought you owned.
21:49
And everything is pointing to the next print being the biggest
21:54
one we've ever seen. Here's a clip that's been
21:57
circulating that captures exactly where we are.
22:00
You still need a 10 year plan to figure out how to beat inflation
22:04
and survive in a multipolar world.
22:06
And the only thing I know about that is hard assets, you know,
22:10
physical assets. The next crisis is a self
22:13
custody play. Definitely custodians versus
22:16
self custody. That's what goes wrong.
22:18
You know, there's many different theories on that.
22:20
The only strategy is the big print in the West.
22:23
You know, a Larry Leopard who wrote a book on that, Like,
22:26
yeah, there'll be a bigger print than COVID.
22:28
It's the only strategy. There's no other thing.
22:32
There's no way around that. And everyone needs to just
22:36
understand the fixed assets is the way to solve that.
22:40
And we enter into a world where your government might confiscate
22:44
your assets or they might tax your assets in order to stop you
22:49
from leaving. And so everyone just needs to
22:51
work on the sovereign side. That's solvable.
22:56
And you need a 10 year plan to do that.
22:58
And you need to start today. You know, don't say it's too
23:03
late. It's not too late.
23:06
You know you need it. You need 10 years to to really
23:08
plan for that. Multiple bigger than the
23:10
pandemic. Do you remember COVID printing?
23:13
The Federal Reserve printed approximately $5 trillion in 18
23:17
months. M2 money supply went from 15
23:20
trillion to $22 trillion in 18 months.
23:24
Multiples of that. You know, Larry Leopard's the
23:27
big print, You know that. Oh yeah, that's coming.
23:31
The big print is coming and maybe the big taking is coming
23:35
as well. The great taking, those
23:39
predictions are likely to come true there there is no
23:41
alternative but big print after this.
23:43
Yeah. And the big print will be
23:47
returned to fiscal dominance, weaking of the dollar and then
23:51
capital outflows and and multi polar world.
23:53
Print or collapse, those are the two options.
23:57
There's not really a third door in the banks, and anticipation
24:00
of that moment have been running a very specific playbook.
24:03
Mark Moss documented it brilliantly.
24:06
Let me show you the mechanics of exactly how they're using your
24:10
money right now. Right now there's approximately
24:12
$6.6 trillion sitting in customer deposits at U.S. banks.
24:18
6.6 trillion. That's your savings, that's your
24:22
checking account, that's your emergency fund, and it's all
24:25
parked at the bank. And what do they pay you for the
24:28
privilege of holding your money? They pay you about 0.1%, maybe
24:33
if you're lucky, 10 basis points.
24:35
Meanwhile, at a minimum, the banks are making 200 billion a
24:38
year on that same money, risk free.
24:42
They take your deposits and then they lend it back out at six or
24:45
seven or 8% on mortgages, on car loans, on credit cards, and then
24:50
they pocket the whole difference. $100 billion a year
24:54
risk free on your money, you know what you earn on that same
24:58
money in a savings account if you're lucky, 4%, maybe 5 while
25:03
they're making 678 by lending it back out as a 30 year mortgage.
25:08
And here's the part that should terrify you, because it's the
25:11
structural weakness that makes all of this very dangerous.
25:15
The. Second, you deposit that money,
25:17
the bank loans it out. Not for a week, not for a month,
25:20
Sometimes 15 years, 20 or sometimes 30 years, right?
25:25
That's your neighbor's mortgage. That's a commercial real estate
25:27
loan. That's AI don't know, seven-year
25:30
car loan. Your money has been deployed.
25:33
It's not stored there at the bank.
25:34
This is called fractional reserve banking and and it works
25:39
as long as everyone doesn't ask for their money back at the same
25:41
time. 30 years, your money, their mortgage, your risk.
25:46
Because here's the part that actually keeps me up at night.
25:49
They're not just profiting off your deposits, they're using
25:52
your deposits to back their leveraged bets.
25:55
And when those bets go wrong, and historically they always
25:58
eventually go wrong, the collateral that gets seized in
26:01
the bankruptcy proceedings is your account.
26:05
This isn't speculation. This is the legal architecture
26:08
of the system, written quietly into law, hidden in the fine
26:11
print. And Speaking of legal
26:13
architecture that was quietly written while nobody was
26:16
watching, let me introduce you to something called Basil 3.
26:20
Basil 3 is the new international banking regulation that went
26:23
into effect this year. And on the surface, it sounds
26:26
boring. Capital reserve requirements,
26:28
regulatory framework yarn, right?
26:30
Here's why it matters. Basil Three forces banks to hold
26:33
more capital in reserve against their riskier assets, which
26:37
sounds responsible. And until you realize under the
26:40
new rules, U.S. Treasuries, government bonds are
26:43
classified as zero risk assets, meaning banks don't need to hold
26:47
any extra capital against them. Do you see where this is going?
26:51
But mortgage-backed securities? Corporate bonds, Loans to small
26:55
businesses? Those get hit with higher
26:58
capital requirements. So what do banks do?
27:01
Exactly what you'd expect. They load up on Treasuries.
27:05
They pull back from small business lending.
27:07
They pull back from regional mortgage markets.
27:10
They become, by regulatory design, captive buyers of
27:14
government debt. Your bank deposits?
27:17
Funding the government's deficit spending directly by legal
27:21
mandate. That is not a free market.
27:23
That is a command economy with extra steps and a better PR
27:28
team. It's a loop.
27:30
It's a closed loop where you fund the government, the
27:33
government spends it at Princemore to cover the gap,
27:35
inflates your purchasing power away, and your deposits start
27:39
the cycle over again. And if you think your retirement
27:41
account is safer because it's an IRA or 4-O1K Fannie Mae, you
27:45
just reminded us all why that's a dangerous assumption.
27:49
Fannie Mae, the government sponsored entity that backs
27:52
about 70% of the US mortgage market, just quietly disclosed
27:56
in their Q 12026 filings that their non performing loan
28:00
exposure has increased by 31% year over year.
28:04
Why does this matter you ask? Well, non performing loans,
28:09
that's a fancy term for for loans where people have stopped
28:13
paying 31% and one year in the entity that backs 70% of
28:20
America's mortgages that sits inside virtually every bond
28:24
fund, every target date retirement fund, every safe
28:28
portfolio that your financial advisor built for you and called
28:32
conservative. Conservative.
28:34
Nothing about this is conservative.
28:36
It's the most aggressive, leveraged, interconnected,
28:40
fragile structure ever built, and the people at the top of it
28:43
have already written the laws that protect them when it fails.
28:47
Not you, Deb. Real quick, before we bring it
28:50
home today, look at our likes 3 or 4 times.
28:53
Maybe I'll pump those numbers up.
28:54
Those are rookie numbers in this racket.

Weren't on board with China's plan.
29:41
They're the ones that would be derailing the plan.
29:44
Any of those hardliners in Israel may be trying to derail
29:47
the plan. Any of those hardliners in
29:49
America, the neocons, may be trying to derail the plan.
29:52
You push them all out, they try and derail the plan.
29:54
They kill schools, you know, children in schools.
29:57
They blow up. They try and get Saudi Arabia to
30:00
retaliate. They start doing false flags all
30:03
across and say that's Iran, that's Iran.
30:06
And so now you're having the dismantling of all the false
30:08
flag operations and decapitation campaigns of anyone that
30:12
wouldn't been in board the plan. You replace Khomeini with
30:16
Khomeini and Khomeini who was cooperating I believe and
30:22
negotiating probably agrees to a regime change.
30:26
I don't know the details of that, but it's not a regime
30:29
change because you can't destroy Iran.
30:33
If you if you literally did a real regime change, it would be
30:38
the region would be in chaos. This is Syria with 90 million
30:41
people, one of the most, you know, extensive military mights
30:46
in the world. You can't do all of the protests
30:49
were 100% manufactured like you. You don't, you don't have a
30:53
revolution where the people uprise and then take over one of
30:57
the largest militaries in the world.
31:00
That only happens if you have an alternative military and the
31:03
military goes with the revolutionaries and then you
31:07
have a coup. There was no coup.
31:09
There was no army. It was just literally kill the
31:13
currency, which Scott percent admitted to.
31:16
Lindsey Graham said Mossad were on the streets.
31:19
You create economic circumstances, which is a
31:22
disaster. So destroy all their savings,
31:25
get an Internet blackout. And what do I think IRGC were
31:28
doing? They were probably arresting and
31:30
taking out the hardliners in their own internal system that
31:35
were not on board with the plan. And so then you outsource to
31:39
Israel and America decapitation campaigns, take out the people
31:44
that are not on board the plan, destroy, you know, destroy, have
31:49
real bad damage on Israel. And then you have a three-way
31:52
narrative at the end of it. So oil puts a time frame.
31:56
You can tell this is fake because right now, if this was
31:59
real, if this was real, not only would you have an increase in
32:02
the price of oil, but gold would be soaring as well.
32:05
Gold's not soaring right now. Gold's been flat, if not down,
32:09
while oil was rising. That means the insiders in the
32:13
market know that there's a time frame on this war, and it's not
32:15
a forever war. If this was going to blow up the
32:18
Middle East, gold would be going through the roof and oil would
32:21
be going through the roof In Sync.
32:23
It's not. So there's going to be an off
32:26
board and everyone needs a three-way narrative.
32:29
Israel needs to say we did the decapitation campaigns.
32:32
We've we chopped off the head of the snake.
32:35
Meanwhile it's burdened with that and it's got less military
32:37
all degraded. The Gulf countries will
32:40
renegotiate those contracts with some American, some some China,
32:45
most Russia, most Russia and China in, in terms of those,
32:49
those bases probably won't be rebuilt for American interest.
32:55
America is now an energy exporter.
32:56
It gets Europe, it gets Central and South America.
33:01
And, you know, and then what did the Gulf countries do in their
33:04
retaliation? They said we're reconsidering
33:06
our investments in the US. Trump said we've got 18 trillion
33:11
investment, 18 trillion foreign direct investment means you're
33:14
acquiring the assets of America so you can leverage America, you
33:19
know. And so they said we're going to
33:21
rethink those. What were those?
33:22
The ones they're going to rethink?
33:24
Those were mainly defence and artificial intelligence.
33:26
That's what all the investment was.
33:29
They said we're going to rethink here.
33:31
That creates a problem with the AI trade in America.
33:34
You get a correction of the market.
33:35
You get the private credit market blowing up.
33:38
What's the time scale on all this?
33:40
Exactly what what is happening in April, in April is the China
33:46
Summit, which is a meeting between President Trump and Xi
33:49
Jinping. It will be done by April, is my
33:52
prediction. April.
33:53
Yeah, so in in that meeting will be the official.
33:59
You'll you'll probably need a theatrical, you'll need a
34:02
Hollywood movie from Trump. Trump needs a Hollywood movie.
34:05
Controlled demolition. That's the frame.
34:08
This is not a random crash waiting to happen.
34:11
The crashes that we've lived, lived through 2000, 2008, 2020,
34:15
they were not accidents. There were transfers.
34:18
Every single one of them transferred wealth upward from
34:20
the many to the few, from the savers to debtors, from the
34:24
unconnected to the connected. And the system is designed
34:27
legally, architecturally, by deliberate regulatory
34:30
construction to do it again, bigger, faster, and more
34:34
completely. Unless, unless you're not in the
34:38
system when it happens. That's the entire thesis of this
34:41
channel. That's what we've been saying
34:43
for years. That's what the data is now
34:45
screaming at. Anyone willing to look.
34:47
But before I tell you what the exit looks like, we need to talk
34:51
about one more weapon they're building.
34:53
The one that would close every remaining door permanently.
34:58
So you put everyone else in AAI Robotics and and and please
35:04
state so you can deal with all the civil unrest that comes from
35:07
it. So if you are now losing your
35:10
primary source of profit, which was war in the Middle East, you
35:14
need region, you need, you need a, you need civil unrest within
35:19
Europe, but not where it affects the stock market, just where it
35:23
extracts wealth and and and extracts more resources.
35:28
But we can't have absolute chaos.
35:30
So we need Palantir, we need a police and surveillance day.
35:33
We need digital ID, we need central bank digital currencies.
35:36
What else did happen? Taiwan.
35:38
This is interesting. What happened during this war?
35:40
They said in order to preserve energy because not Taiwan,
35:43
Thailand. Sorry.
35:45
In order to preserve energy, everyone needs to stay at home,
35:49
work from home. The pandemic narrative ain't
35:53
going to work again. So now they've created another
35:55
one in order to preserve energy costs.
35:57
Please, everyone stay at home. We need to save energy while we
35:59
deal with this crisis. Do you know simulation theory?
36:05
I haven't looked into it too much, but I'm aware.
36:07
Of it, yeah. The, the premise that we've gone
36:11
since the invention of computers to now over really decades
36:17
really, that you've gone from a computer that can do basic math
36:22
to be able to create worlds like Fortnite.
36:27
Give it another 100 years, you'll be able to probably
36:30
recreate human existence, the world that we live in, as a
36:32
simulation. That's the thesis that if you
36:34
can do it, you'll do it thousands and millions of times.
36:38
So we're probably in a simulation.
36:40
It does feel like we're in some game.
36:42
It's just a game feels like it feels like an Do you remember
36:45
Risk? I do, yeah.
36:47
It just feels like risk. Yeah, yeah, I completely agree.
36:50
And I think we're all feeling that right now.
36:52
So on the psychological level, you know, getting down to the
36:54
micro, the, the, the humanitarian cost of this is, is
36:58
an absolute pandemic. So the real pandemic is the
37:02
psychological trauma that we're all being put through.
37:04
Are you feeling Oh, 100% like I am My, my, my world is not the
37:10
same world that that I understood or knew and you know.
37:14
How certain are you in your thesis here?
37:19
I'm not certain on the detail. I could get lots of details
37:21
wrong in that, but I'm certain on how the world is governed
37:26
now. Sorry, Simon, For me at my age,
37:32
it seems like I don't, I'm trying to make sense of it.
37:36
Is it, is it bad timing for me or has it always been like this?
37:40
It's always been like this. You're just, but is it
37:42
collapsing now? You're just in the wrong region
37:45
of the world because what you're experiencing right now is 1% of
37:51
what people experienced on the wrong side of these bombs.
37:55
You're getting the team down version and we're all going
37:58
crazy, right? We're, we're, we're all like
38:00
becoming absolute nuts and we can't have children and we're
38:03
all going crazy, right? The rest of the world has been
38:07
on the wrong side of these bombs.
38:09
We're only getting 10% of what they got.
38:11
And they survived and they were strong at the end of it, and
38:14
they're still here. OK, let's build because I know
38:17
that was a lot. I know it feels like a doom
38:19
spiral. 8 countries, food crisis, the great taking CBDC's.
38:23
I know. But here is what I need you to
38:25
understand and this is the most important thing I'll say today.
38:29
None of that is happening to us. All of that is happening for us,
38:34
for us. What the hell am I talking
38:36
about? Well, because every single one
38:38
of those systemic failures is making the case for Bitcoin
38:42
louder, clearer, and more undeniable than any of us could
38:45
make it ourselves. We don't have to convince anyone
38:48
anymore. The governments are doing it for
38:50
us. Let me show you what I mean.
38:52
Egypt goes into war economy mode.
38:55
People lose faith in the Egyptian pound.
38:57
Bitcoin fixes this. Turkey burns 30 billion
39:01
defending the lira. People lose faith in the lira.
39:03
Bitcoin fixes this. Pakistan cuts fuel and salaries.
39:07
People lose faith in the rupee. Bitcoin fixes this.
39:11
Russia bans cash exports. Capital controls are officially
39:15
here. Bitcoin fixes this.
39:17
Lebanon currency down 98% total Fiat collapse.
39:20
Bitcoin fixes this. Fannie Mae non performing loans
39:23
plus 31% bond markets under stress.
39:27
Bitcoin fixes this. The great taking threatens your
39:31
retirement. You cannot be an unsecured
39:33
creditor if your asset is self custodied.
39:36
Bitcoin fixes this. CBDC's threatened to make money.
39:39
Programmable, decentralized, uncentrable money fixes this.
39:43
So therefore Bitcoin fixes this. Every problem we covered today
39:47
had one structural solution, one asset class that was
39:51
specifically designed by Satoshi and the white paper from the
39:54
very first line for exactly this moment, a purely peer-to-peer
39:58
version of electronic cash that would allow online payments to
40:02
be sent directly from one party to another without going through
40:05
a financial institution, without going through a financial
40:08
institution. Do you understand how pathetic
40:10
that line is in 2026? Not with better financial
40:15
institutions. Not with more regulated
40:18
financial institutions without them.
40:21
Entirely because the problem we just documented for like over 20
40:25
minutes, the Basil 3 loop, the great taking, the CBDC
40:28
architecture, all of it flows from from one root cause.
40:32
You are required to route your money through third parties, and
40:35
those third parties have legal, regulatory and institutional
40:38
power over your wealth. Remove the third party.
40:42
Remove the problem that is the Bitcoin thesis.
40:46
It was the Bitcoin thesis in 2009.
40:49
It is the Bitcoin thesis today. And the world just spent 72
40:53
hours proving why it's correct. Let's talk about what happens
40:58
next, What happens from here, and more importantly, what
41:00
should you and I be doing about this?
41:02
How do how do we think about this now?
41:04
We have a very recent road map for this.
41:06
Last year, Congress passed the Genius Act.
41:08
All right. This was the first federal
41:10
stablecoin framework that went through.
41:13
Now, what we saw is as the bill started advancing through
41:16
Congress, Bitcoin ran from 74,000 to as high as 126,000.
41:22
And that's not like a coincidence.
41:24
When regulatory uncertainty clears capital that's been
41:28
sitting on the sideline, it starts coming in.
41:31
It's been waiting for clarity. And so it comes in fast.
41:33
And when the capital moves into Bitcoin, then it moves the price
41:36
up. The Clarity Act, that's the next
41:38
step, right? It's way bigger than the Genius
41:40
act because the Clarity Act doesn't just regulate
41:43
stablecoins. It creates framework for the
41:45
entire digital asset market. It legitimizes the entire
41:49
ecosystem and section four O 4, the stablecoin yield provision
41:53
that starts pulling capital out of the banking system and into
41:57
the crypto infrastructure. All right, so we have a
42:00
documented recent example of exactly what happens when crypto
42:03
regulation advances and we can see the setup.
42:06
It's all forming right now. And look, I'm not going to tell
42:10
you exactly when this passes or, or you know what bitcoins going
42:13
to do because obviously I don't know that nobody knows that we
42:16
could see more volatility before the breakout.
42:18
I'm guessing that's probably what we'll see, right?
42:20
That's the nature of this asset. But here's what we do know.
42:23
The 1913 restructuring created generational wealth for the
42:27
people who understood it. The 1971 restructuring, it did
42:30
the same thing. Both times there was a window,
42:34
and both times most people missed it.
42:36
All right? And we're in that window right
42:38
now. The banks are fighting this
42:40
because they have to. Trump is pushing this because he
42:43
has to. The infrastructure is being
42:45
built because the market wants it.
42:47
The market demands it. Now, when those three forces are
42:49
moving in the same direction at the same time, that's not
42:53
coincidence. That's momentum.
42:56
So the question that I would spend time on, the question
42:59
we're spending some thought on isn't whether this happens, it's
43:04
whether you understand it well enough to act before everybody
43:07
else. Catches on.
43:08
Which side of the wealth transfer are we going to be on?
43:10
That's the only question that matters, apparently.
43:13
Not whether this crash is coming.
43:14
It's coming. Not whether the printing
43:17
happens. It's going to happen.
43:18
Not whether the great taking is real, the laws on the books.
43:22
The question is where are you when it does?
43:26
And if you're inside the system, in the bank account, in a four O
43:28
1K in a brokerage that holds your security entitlement, you
43:33
are an unsecured creditor. You are collateral.
43:37
You are on the wrong side of the transfer if you hold self
43:40
custody. Bitcoin.
43:41
Not Bitcoin in exchange, not Bitcoin in an ETF.
43:45
Actual Bitcoin on a hardware wallet with your keys.
43:48
You are outside the system. You are not a creditor of
43:51
anyone. You are the owner, full stop.
43:54
Your keys, your coins. No one can basil three your
43:56
Bitcoin. Nobody can seize your Bitcoin in
43:58
a bankruptcy proceeding. Nobody can program your Bitcoin
44:01
to expire. Nobody can freeze your Bitcoin
44:03
for posting the wrong opinion. It is the only asset on earth
44:07
that is structurally immune to everything we talked about
44:10
today. Now I want to be honest with you
44:12
because I always try to be honest with you.
44:14
Bitcoin is not a 72 hour fix for a 72 hour crisis.
44:19
If Egypt is in war economy mode and you're in Egypt and you have
44:23
0, Bitcoin today is harder than it needed to be.
44:26
If Pakistan cut your salary and your savings are in rupees,
44:29
today is harder than it needed to be tomorrow.
44:32
Next month, next year can be different if you start the
44:36
process today. So here is the Simply Bitcoin
44:39
call to action, and it's not complicated.
44:42
Step one, get off 0. Buy any amount of Bitcoin today.
44:45
Not when you understand everything, not when the price
44:48
dips today. The best time to start was years
44:50
ago. Second best time is now.
44:53
Step 2, get it off the exchange and exchange is a third party.
44:57
A third party is a counterparty risk.
44:59
See everything we just covered about counterparty risk.
45:02
Buy it and then move it to a hardware wallet that you
45:05
control. Step three, stack consistently.
45:08
Dollar cost average every week, every paycheck, every month, add
45:11
to the stack. You don't need to go all in, you
45:13
need to go all in on the process.
45:18
Consistent accumulation over time is how you build a position
45:22
that matters. Step 4.
45:24
Learn while you stack. That's what this show is for.
45:27
And many others. All of them.
45:29
We're not going anywhere. Every week we bring you the
45:32
receipts. Every week we show you why the
45:35
system is failing and exactly how Bitcoin fixes it.
45:38
You don't have to figure this out alone.
45:40
And if you ever need liquidity, you don't have to sell your
45:44
Bitcoin. So why would you sell your
45:46
future? Leaden just dropped their lowest
45:49
rates ever. The larger the loan, the lower
45:51
the rate your Bitcoin is. Never let out, Never touched
45:55
eight years, 10 billion in loans, 0 losses.
45:58
Simply Bitcoin clients get an extra 25 basis points off their
46:02
first loan. Get liquidity without giving up
46:05
your stack. Go to leaden dot IO using that
46:07
link in the description. I don't want to say one more
46:10
thing before we get out of here. The people who are going to be
46:14
on the right side of the biggest wealth transfer in human
46:16
history, they're not the smartest people.
46:18
They're not the richest people. They're not people who just got
46:22
lucky on timing. They are the people who decided
46:25
to understand, who decided to stop trusting the systems that
46:29
have been quietly betraying them for decades, who decided to opt
46:33
out peacefully, nonviolently, through the most elegant
46:36
financial act of self determination in history, buying
46:39
and holding a fixed supply asset that no government can inflate.
46:43
Seize program or freeze. That's the peaceful revolution,
46:47
and that's what this channel has always been about.
46:50
And if there was ever a week to understand why it was this one,
46:54
here's a hard truth. Bitcoin protects your wealth,
46:56
but it won't keep you connected when the grid goes down.
46:59
SAT 123 fixes that. Satellite phones.

47:05
sovereignty seriously. Use code simply@sat123.com for

47:16
All right, that's the show. And look, I want to hear from
47:18
you. Drop in the comments.
47:19
Which country shocked you the most this week?
47:21
Egypt going into their war economy mode four days after
47:25
getting IMF money. Turkeys selling national gold.
47:29
Pakistan cutting salaries. Tell me in the comments if

47:46

47:49
If you've been with us, you already know.
47:51
Give us a pair. Share this episode.
47:53
Share it with one person in your life who is still sitting in a
47:57
bank account wondering why they're purchasing power.
48:00
Feels like it's been cut in half.
48:01
This episode may be the answer to that question.
48:04
Do not trust banks with your future.
48:06
Do not trust governments to tell you the truth.
48:08
Do not trust the IMF four days before war economy mode trust,
48:12
math trust and scarcity. Trust the 21 million sets, opt
48:18
out and I'll see you next time. Love you guys, pooch.
48:22
If you prefer to go down with the ship.
