Trump met with the Saudi prince and the three most powerful businessmen on Earth to design the new world order.

The “Pax Americana” has come to an end.

These guys will make a lot of money with what comes next. You can too.

The Pax Romana was the period of political stability when Jesus was born.

70 million people lived under relative peace, from Northern Europe to Mesopotamia, because the Empire swiftly eliminated dissenters.

A similar dynamic defined other hegemonies over time...

An empire masters a new military technology and begins to expand. It subjugates provinces. It grows by “imposing peace” wherever it goes.

At some point, the cost of maintaining the empire exceeds the potential “revenue” from plundering new provinces.

Border territories are ceded. Resources dwindle. Living standards decline. Elites clash. And a new superpower rises.

Pax Ottomana: 16th and 17th centuries. The Ottomans were the first Western hegemony to master gunpowder.

Pax Britannica: 19th century. The British patrolled the seas… until the first great war broke out in Europe.

Pax Americana: from the end of World War II until today.

The last 100 years have been the most peaceful in history (unless you live in the Middle East), because the Pentagon can obliterate any capital before you finish watching a TikTok.

Allow me to introduce the USS Gerald R. Ford—the ultimate symbol of the guarantors of world peace:

Recent generations of Americans have enjoyed the highest quality of life ever seen, exporting inflation and importing cheap goods produced in the Third World.

But now it’s time for Uncle Sam to pass the baton.

Trump is deliberately demoting the dollar from its role as the global reserve currency.

Ceding key “provinces” of the Empire: Taiwan to China, eastern Ukraine to Russia.

And intensifying the plunder of allies: Greenland, Ukrainian rare earths, Canada...

Central banks worldwide are dumping Treasuries.

China has offloaded 25% of its holdings since 2020.

The dollar’s share in foreign reserve assets won’t drop to zero overnight.

But if the current pace of divestment continues, it could hit zero in a century.

So far, three currencies have been considered “potential successors” to the dollar.

One is already out of the race: the Euro.

Two “contenders” remain:

China’s currency... and the Internet’s currency.

~15% of all #Bitcoin is held by governments, corporations, or ETFs. Not counting those on exchanges.

In the end, most satoshis will likely serve as backing—alongside other assets or not—for private stablecoins.

Financial institutions, social networks, and nation-states will have their own stablecoins 🤑

With different backings, reserve levels, and distribution strategies.

Just as every company became a “publisher” in the Internet era, every business can become a “bank” in the Bitcoin era.

The market will converge toward currencies backed by the supreme collateral, but there will be demand for other types of “commercial money.”

Both financial and human capital will become more liquid.

The average person won’t have money in 3 or 4 places anymore, but in dozens.

Capital controls will be less effective.

Wars will be much harder to finance.

The era of “Mutually Assured Destruction” (M.A.D.) gives way to “Mutually Assured Cooperation” (M.A.C.).

The primary deterrent to war is no longer just the nuclear threat, but the fact that funding military adventures is far more expensive in a Bitcoin standard.

And that’s what comes after Pax Americana.

A new order.

Feel free to call it “Pax Bitcoiniana.”

Heroes and villains will emerge in this transition. It doesn’t matter.

#Bitcoin was designed for people who don’t like or trust each other.

It’s “money for enemies” ⚔️

You don’t need to believe Bitcoin will save humanity. You just need to understand it will prevent humanity from destroying itself.
