In a world that is being forced into polarized, binary ways of thinking Konstantin Kisin attempts to help others realize that it isn't always "the current thing" v. "railing against the current thing". There are other ways to approach the problems we face today.

While many were focused on the degenerate lifestyle of Hunter Biden when the contents of his personal laptop were released to the public, Garrett Ziegler did some hard hitting investigative research to highlight the corruption, interstate felonies, and the fact that the Biden family was aware that President Biden was suffering from dementia as early as 2018.
This is one of the most important episodes of TFTC ever recorded.

Financial colonization via control over another sovereign's monetary system or over-burdensome debt obligations is a massive problem in today's world and @gladstein is doing his best to bring this subject to the fore. https://t.co/bQSMfghVhX
People underestimate the possibility of hyperinflation in the US and overestimate the chaos it would cause.
sry not sry, Parker

As this banking crisis unfolds it is important to remember the root cause; the Federal Reserve. @parkeralewis reminds us that the fiat monetary system is doomed for failure because there is too much debt and not enough dollars.
QE5 started yesterday. The problem will only be exacerbated from here and the only solution is a bitcoin standard.

Bitcoin is the actionable Occupy Wall Street.
Even though bitcoin’s price is volatile, it makes sense to allocate a portion of your company’s balance sheet to bitcoin held in multisig custody because you’ll never be put in a situation where you cannot access your funds because someone else took risk with your money.
I’d rather have unperturbed access to something worth less than no access to anything.
This is the advice we’ve been giving portfolio companies at Ten31 over the last few days. Who knows what’s going to happen in the next few weeks. Better be safe than sorry.
This strategy is especially important for bitcoin companies who are discriminated against within the banking system.
Looks like this week will determine whether or not Silicon Valley Bank was a terrible manager of risk and is a one-off failure, or if everyone who has been saying "the banks are more well capitalized than ever post-2008" have been living a lie.
The Fed's dual-mandate is price stability and maximum employment. However, Lyn Alden points out that these two metrics don't necessarily have a direct correlation with each other despite the fact that the Fed believes they do.
High signal rip on the Fed, inflation, the structural problems causing inflation, bitcoin, and war as a distraction from incompetence
Fed policy is perturbing all markets, but especially the real estate market. @ktlannan
breaks down what he's seeing in the world of real estate development, how rapidly rising rates affects real estate, anecdotes of shrinkflation, bitcoin urbanism, and more.
Very high signal and high T rip.
Episode drops Friday morning. And we did bring this topic up but I don’t think Lyn mentioned a specific rate.
When one takes into consideration the ballooning federal debt and the runaway interest expenses associated with that debt coupled with the increased cost of capital to invest in critical infrastructure that is necessary to bring more goods to market, it is easy to see a future in which the Fed successfully induces demand destruction but does very little to solve the inflation problem, and actually exacerbates it.
Things may seem insane and that’s because they are, but it should all be seen as an opportunity to focus on solutions.
The solution to the madness in the world I focus on is bitcoin.
“Every once in awhile”
I’ll take it!
