This may set the stage nicely for a little map making: china gets tawain, usa gets greenland and russia gets most of Ukraine. Everybody good?

maybe, maybe not. china & russia would have a much more difficult time considering taiwan & ukraine’s technical prowess including global support. usa made it look easy but we also spend an exorbitant amount.
I'm saying make a deal to make everyone de escalate and avoid war. Everyone gets what they want.
good idea though someone will definitely disagree. eu would panic & japan is no friend. hyperbitcoinization can’t come soon enough
Everyone gets what they want? You might wanna check in with Taiwan before you sell them to China.
Let's see, start WW3 over some tiny island because we over invested in chip manufacturing... or make a deal. Tuff choice.
You said everyone's happy. Everyone includes the Taiwanese people or do they not count?
Try convincing the Taiwanese people they shld be happy to be sold out and stabbed in the back for the sake of everyone else.
I don't have to convince them and I don't wish to be held hostage over a tiny island that soon won't matter.
Who's holding who hostage though?
America made a mistake (your words). And so the solution is to punish an ally and push responsibility off to the ones who, up to this point, has significantly and directly contributed to America's technological success, by selling them out to America's enemy for a perceived political peace...
So America gets to make a mistake and overinvest. And now America faces a perceived threat of ww3. So America decides to make a deal to stab Taiwan in the back and sell them off to China, the perceived enemy in the first place.
Now "everyone" is happy? Who's getting punished for who's mistake here?
Make that logic make sense.
They just opened a global pipeline between Anchorage Digital and Antalpha through OSL Group. I doubt anyone makes a move to jeopardize this, if not embolden it. Anything that surfaces has been bought and paid for.
U.S. may have taken control of China's oil supply, but they're also securing the pipeline to kickback value. Meanwhile, private equity can exit through Swiss vaults into sanctioned markets. The great American escape, everyone gets paid.
