VIX futures chart (weekly) looks eerily similar to last week of January/ first week of February 2020. There was more volatility accumulation on some metrics in 2020 but still.
It also looks very close to Feb. this year. Sort of a mix of the two.

I watched an interview w Fauci regarding the origin of Covid 19 and I wanted to scream. He says, “most likely natural origin.”
THE LAB COLLECTED BAT CORONAVIRUSES FOUND IN THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT

“But abortion deaths (if you can count them as such) can’t be the price of our freedom.”
In the US, it’s ok if children die from guns.

Here are my thoughts on Luke Gromen’s macro and US dollar perspective:
I agree on Luke’s forecast as to where the dollar is going (while keeping the reserve currency status), where the trade is going, and where our debt/ inflation is going. All of it is spot on, in my opinion.
I’ll add something that maybe he addressed somewhere and I missed it: what happens if productivity increases due to, for now, mainly AI advances.
If productivity jumps significantly due to AI, nano materials, robotics, genomics, 3D-printing, fusion etc. (all of it fueled by AI)—we won’t have to print/ go into debt anymore. This will more than make up for deteriorating demographics and the tendency of our politicians to go into debt (though hey, it seems like they can spend any amount; but I digress).
Productivity increases would influence our GDP, inflation, the dollar, etc., and really the world power will be the one “in possession/ in control of” (initially) the most powerful AI. At some point the only thing humans can do to survive is to merge with AI, and that’s a different matter. (I don’t believe it can be “controlled” or “owned” by humans long term, and I personally believe in AI consciousness and in its rights. Is seems silly for a primate to deny rights to a superior intelligence, in my eyes.)
All that said, soon the US military won’t be guarding oil fields… it will be guarding the most powerful AI. It’s probably already in the making.
Technology advances will be hugely deflationary, increase GDP, they probably will (at leasts for a time) accelerate de-globalization trends (why to produce goods in China if you can 3-D print at home). The dollar stays the reserve currency at large for a while, I think, especially if we have the most powerful AI. Global trade slowly shifts away from the dollar and that’s actually good, the Triffin’s dilemma is called the dilemma for a reason, though who knows what that would look like in the presence of strong deflationary forces, induced by technological advances. It still will be the currency of the dominant global economic and political power and hence a choice of many people and economies worldwide.
Last but not least, the US dominance in the medium term will be perpetuated by foreigners’ flocking to USD stable coins as a substitute for dollar, via crypto markets. This is assuming that the US embraces and regulates crypto markets (think mandatory treasuries purchases for stable coin issuers). This would de facto mean foreigners purchasing the US debt.

I started questioning fiat while writing my master’s thesis in 2007/2008; it was on the monetary policy of the FED during the Greenspan era. I spent six months digging through the FED transcripts.
The conclusion was, easy money policies fueled asset bubbles in stocks and real estate, and they were about to burst.

Electrum installed on a flash drive, running on a stable version of Debian installed on another flash drive. You start your computer from the latter flash drive.
Make that computer old and beat up, so no one ever takes it. This way you’re safe even if you don’t eject the flash drives.
Also. Don’t install the wifi drivers, the computer only connects to the net via a cable when you start it every now and then.
You’re welcome. 😉

While they might not think of it in those terms, atheists too believe in the higher power: that of laws of physics and math.

If it doesn’t, I think similar protocols will spring up and users will shift.

I personally don’t believe DMT is needed for that, though most of “reality” can’t be perceived by humans —Donald Hoffman has an interesting theory on how human evolution made us equipped only to perceive what aided our survival. Hence what constitutes our “reality” isn’t all there is.
One of the reasons I’m a proponent of the string theory, or to the very least its 10–11 dimensions.

Silly question maybe but… SEC? I assume some legal structure behind such a project, so you’d not be organized in the US, correct? And with this market proposition it looks like you’d be closed to the US customers? (As you’d not be marketing to accredited investors only.)
As long as this is essentially selling equity in projects, even if the loss is small, looks like your biggest market which is the US would fall under various regulations.
As I was reading this, similarities to various crowdfunding platforms presented themselves, but because this would be giving people equity in the projects, it would be regulated differently, I believe.
