I am trying to piece a few things together but have not seen it discussed anywhere.
The word is, some ships are allowed through the strait, but these ships then pay in BTC.
Since it is reported that 3200 ships are "waiting", I am wondering, given the peculiar price movements since the "double cease fire", there is another play at work.

But .... there also is something else:
https://c4ads.org/publications/
Peruse the articles .... Protean fleet. At least 10.000 ships. And the way it works is even more mindboggling than simply a BTC address with a segwit.
It seems to me, IF 2 or more million is paid in BTC to pass, then the traces of such a payment should be visible. The thing is, it is not paid in Pounds Sterling ( auch for the CoL) but who is the recipient?
What if this actually fills US coffers, only to be used as a backstop?
I mean, if Scott Bessent is the originator of the '92 Pound Sterling attack, throwing it out of the EMS, making Soros billions, clearly this man knows more about such things than many "experts", especially with more than a year prep.
I am not saying it is ..... But ... something peculiar is going on, and I can't even formulate my question really. The ups and downs are way too ..... precise. Today I calculated it would be a 1000 up. Nice. I also calculated the 71500 level as a short exit. Nice. Thanks and all. But is it never been this precise. It feels off.
Correct. BRICS PAY is the name. https://bricstechnology.io/brics-pay/
Interesting article: https://thinkbrics.substack.com/p/the-dollars-slow-unraveling-how-bitcoin
Viewed from a slightly different angle: why would a Petro dollar be needed in the first place to support the US? It seems there was a different calculus at work, at the same time when the actual Empire morphed into something else, and also creating the liquidity market called EURODOLLAR.
It seems, the International Rules Based Order, the typical consensus system, requiring states to embed themselves into supra national organizations where consensus drives the outcome, it is easy to see how this ties into the label the Atlantic called now: USA as the superpower going rogue. In essence, supra national entities erode national sovereignty. (see Carlo Schmidt: 1948. He says it literally). But the way to turn back the clock on this out of control system, is a different matter, as it ties into everything.
Interestingly, when Doge started to turn the screws on one part of the dark money flow, BTC dropped as a stone. 50%.
My guess is, we are not there yet, as fraud and abuse is still an ongoing and heightened project (Scott Bessent: 30% of the claw back is for the whistleblower). It would not surprise me that these efforts plus that what is done to put a dent into the black fleet, will allow BTC to drop another 25% from its high (126.000) or back to 50K or maybe even lower given the abysmal structure between 32.000 and 72.000.
And perhaps, indeed, given the level of new bitcoin produced, it may be that Michael Saylor is capable of buying it all. But it does not take into account the fact that IF the territory of max pain and the timeframe on which this happens intensifies and elongates, well .... his claim of no more BTC winter will be felt as BS. I would suspect, in such territory, only the real hodlers remain, and will drive a huge spike into the heart of dark money flows.
Thanks, I'm struggling to learn the $ymbols. If the EURODOLLAR is the LIQuidity market, does that mean the "Low IQ" rant was about them?
Actually now that I think for a sec, I thought Japan was the source of LIQ-uitidy until recently when they started closing it down.
Yes, through the Yen carry trade.All these systems are interconnected.
So if tankers represent transactions, then Russian Shadow Fleet Tankers moving unmolested through the "English channel" must mean they're no longer forced to use the dark money flows?

And China no longer benefits from that.

That seems a reasonable supposition.
