days weeks months

quarters years decades

arbitrary lines drawn

in a never-ending attempt

to convince ourselves

that time exists

but time is just an illusion

time does not exist; clocks exist

time has no beginning nor ending

that which humans celebrate as a #NewYear is neither the beginning

nor the end

time is seamless and unchanged

the only true time is the #NOW

and technically we all live in the past

(our brains take a tiny amount of #time to register everything that happens)

time is a part of our experience

but it is not a fundamental part of the universe

time is just a rubber band

time is at our command

#2026 #happynewyear #HNW

#Consistency is the physical manifestation of a mind that has already decided on its worth.

โ€œItโ€™s not a recession thatโ€™s going to hit the U.S. and the world โ€“ itโ€™s a total breakdown of the monetary system.โ€ โ€” Ray Dalio #quotestr #economy

1/ A "Maturity Wall" is coming. By 2026, the U.S. Treasury faces a massive financial hurdle that could reshape the economy. Weโ€™re talking about nearly $10 Trillion in debt coming due in a single year.

Hereโ€™s why 2026 is a "ticking time bomb." ๐Ÿ‘‡

2/ First, letโ€™s look at the numbers. As of late 2025, roughly 33% of all marketable U.S. debt is scheduled to mature within the next 12โ€“18 months. This isnโ€™t a gradual slope; itโ€™s a vertical peak in the data. ๐Ÿ“ˆ

3/ Why is it so concentrated in 2026?

During the pandemic and the high-inflation years of 2023-24, the Treasury leaned heavily on short-term "T-Bills" and 2-year Notes.

The result? A massive "pile-up" of expirations all hitting at the same time. ๐Ÿงฑ

4/ This creates a Refinancing Crisis.

The U.S. doesn't "pay off" debt; it rolls it over. It issues new bonds to pay the old ones.

The problem? Much of the debt expiring in 2026 was issued at 0.5% to 1.5% interest.

5/ Refinancing $10T at today's rates (around 3.5%โ€“4.5%) means interest costs are exploding.

Total net interest outlays are projected to hit $1.1 Trillion in 2026.

For the first time in history, we are spending more on interest than on the entire National Defense budget. ๐Ÿ’ธ

6/ Who pays for this?

When interest eats up 20%+ of all federal tax revenue, "something has to give."

โ€ข A: Higher Taxes ๐Ÿ“ˆ

โ€ข B: Drastic Spending Cuts โœ‚๏ธ

โ€ข C: More Money Printing (Inflation) ๐Ÿ–จ๏ธ

โ€ข D: A mix of all three.

7/ Ray Dalio calls this the "Late Cycle" phase. When a superpowerโ€™s debt costs outpace its growth, it enters a period of high volatility. 2026 is the year this structural reality moves from a "future problem" to an "immediate math problem." ๐Ÿงฎ

8/ Is it a total collapse? Not necessarily. The U.S. still has "Reserve Currency" status and high demand for its bonds. But the margin for error is gone. 2026 is the year the "Cheap Debt Era" officially ends, and the bill comes due.

9/ Summary: - $10T maturing in 2026 (1/3 of all public debt).

โ€ข Interest costs now exceed $1T/year.

โ€ข Refinancing cheap debt into expensive debt is the primary driver of the deficit.

Keep an eye on the 2026 maturity wall. Itโ€™s the gravity the markets canโ€™t ignore. ๐Ÿ“‰๐Ÿ”š

To create is to affirm our #humanity, to assert our unique #perspective on the world. It is through creation that we leave our mark, that we say, 'I was here, and this is what I saw, what I felt, what I thought.'

"The question isn't, 'What do we want to do?' The question is, 'What do we want to be?' Do we want to be a society that values freedom, openness, and sharing? or do we want to be a society that values control, secrecy, and greed?" โ€” Aaron Swartzโ€™s 2012 speech @ Harvard University Library

#Gold is just an asset.

Bitcoin is way more than just an asset.

#Bitcoin is a communications protocol that enables humanity to transfer units of value. Add #Nostr to this and nothing is priced in!

Our brain:

โ€ข Filters 99% of reality

โ€ข Generates our world

โ€ข Builds a personal hallucination

We're not seeing the world.

We're INVENTING it.

Every moment. ๐ŸŒ€
