Adam Curry nicely breaks down how Stablecoins work, Tether, and the likely future of the US Digital Dollar system. (Worth a watch if you don't know about this subject) "A stablecoin is a digital dollar thats pegged to the dollar so it's always a dollar. It's already being used... all over the internet and the world. The only reason it's worth a dollar is because the stablecoin company that creates it has debt and paper to back it up. They buy America's debt, they buy treasury bonds or T-bills that pay a dividend that gives interest, and for each dollar they've bought in treasury they can create stablecoins. If you look at the company Tether they've bought more of the US debt than most countries. They have $160B worth of US debt. For each of those dollars they have a stablecoin. There's like 50 people in the company. They have $160B at 4% interest annually, they're making BANK just for holding this debt. I think that President Trump is very smart in seeing that we can flood the world with our stablecoin and we get a 2-for-1. We create a dollar of debt and we create another dollar that can be used all over the world as a reserve currency and that should result in some new monetary system that we need to come up with to have our dollar valued properly but also still remain the reserve currency and remain a strong export country. We don't make anything that we sell abroad, we can't all serve each other burgers and fries -- we have to build something. All of that went overseas. There's something big coming, and it has to happen. Trump is a meta guy. He's going to re-finance the country. It'll be digital and he Bitcoiners don't like this because they want Bitcoin to be the one currency that everyone uses but its now more like a digital gold that's much easier to move around. It's useful but it isn't money or currency the way it was originally intended -- but it is still very important and will be part of the US' strategic reserve. It looks to me like Stablecoins and Tether in particular will be the future of the US dollar payments. A lot of people on the right are afraid of being controlled on a grid because you can stop stablecoins -- but it seems there's no way of getting around some form of a digital dollar. I still like Bitcoin as a backup to protect from that control."show more

The Trump admin is GASLIGHTING us re: no CBDCs They know they can't do CBDCs because of the Constitution, so they're backdooring them with stablecoins Iain Davis explains— "the idea of a [CBDC] is that it will give these private institutions total control of a new digital international monetary and financial system" "CBDC is programmable money that slots into that system. That's why they want it" "That's not going to work in the US because... it's a constitutional right in the United States that the people, and only the people, oversee what they call the power, quote–unquote... to coin money" "So what are you going to do about it? You need some sort of work-round" "So stablecoins and things like deposit tokens or tokenized deposits are variations of programmable digital currency. But rather than being issued by a central bank, they're issued by a commercial bank" "stablecoins... slot into the system of programmability just as easily, if not more so than a central bank digital currency. So you can attach smart contracts to any kind of digital transaction using digital currency" "Programmable digital currency and stablecoins do exactly the same thing, serve the same purpose, as central bank digital currency" This clip of Iain Davis (InThisTogether), author of The Technocratic Dark State, is taken from a Flashlights podcast (Flashlights Podcast) episode posted to Rumble on May 17, 2026. ---------------Partial transcription of clip---------------- "It's a constitutional right in the United States that the people, and only the people, oversee what they call the power, quote–unquote, it says this in the Constitution, to coin money. So the power to coin money is overseen by the people. "Now the idea of a central bank digital currency is that it will give these private institutions total control of a new digital international monetary and financial system. That's CBDC is programmable money that slots into that system. That's why they want it. "That's not going to work in the US because even though Congress, you know, Congress is the, is the dog which is wagged by the tail in this of the Fed, the Fed, you know, the Fed tells Congress what to do, not the other way round. But theoretically it could be the other way round. And theoretically the people could assert their control over the Fed if they only knew about it, which, not many people do, but they could do it, right? It's in the US Constitution. "Now that's a problem if you're going to embark on a global transformation of the entire international monetary and financial system when your leading reserve currency is the US dollar. So that's, you know, that could all go wrong very badly. "So what are you going to do about it? You need some sort of work round. How are you, how are you going to do which for the, you know, I, for many years, well, since central bank digital currency has been something that I've been looking at, I couldn't figure out why the US wasn't more enthusiastic about central bank digital currency. "Because it's the type of thing that the US administrations are usually right up— You know, they're really gung ho about that kind of centralized control of everything. That's right up their alley. So why, why don't they like it? And then it was the work of John Titus who pointed out this problem that they've got in the US with the Constitution that made me look at that and think, right. And then I started investigating that further. And he's right about that. That is a problem. "But then they obviously need some sort of workaround. How are they going to have. Because the main point of central bank digital currency from the surveillance and control aspect is that we will all need digital identity in order to access our digital wallets, which will contain the currency and the currency and the wallets and our, digital identities will all be programmable so conditions can be set on everything that we do. "Every transaction we make will be subject to condition through some sort of smart contract probably, which will control it. Right. So you know, if you say the wrong thing or you know, you, you just write the wrong thing online, you could be punished by algorithm by controlling your access to money... "And so the key to that is central bank— the programmability of central bank digital currency. But obviously that's not going to, may not work. There's a good chance that won't work in the United States which has got the US dollar reserve is an important currency. "So what are you going to do? So stablecoins and things like deposit tokens or tokenized deposits are variations of programmable digital currency. But rather than being issued by a central bank, they're issued by a commercial bank. So or in the case of stablecoins, a non-bank, a non-bank institution like Tether. So it's not a bank. "But you can use stablecoins for exactly the same. They slot into the system of programmability just as easily, if not more so than a central bank digital currency. So you can attach smart contracts to any kind of digital transaction using digital currency. Programmable digital currency and stablecoins do exactly the same thing, serve the same purpose as central bank digital currency or the other version, the commercial bank version is deposit tokens. Any of those will do. "Now in the US they've gone down the stablecoin route so they can issue the stablecoins which will be backed by US Treasuries, just like the dollar or just like any kind of dollar instrument will be one to one convertible for the US dollar. So the stablecoins are effectively the US dollar in, in digital form. "But instead of calling it a central bank digital currency, they call it issued by, it wouldn't have to be issued by the Fed. They call it a stablecoin, which is issued by a company like Tether or you know, someone like that. So it's the same system but using a workaround. And that workaround came with the Genius Act which, which came from an executive order that Trump made when he first came to office. "Because the Americans, quite rightly when they were electing their president, were concerned about central bank digital currency. I mean anyone that understands what it is should be terrified of it. So they didn't want it, and Trump promised that they wouldn't have it. Probably. I don't know whether he knew, but certainly the gaggle of technocrats that were around him knew that they weren't going down that path. Anyway, no chance of the US introducing it because of these problems we've just outlined."

🚨Peter Schiff: China🇨🇳 is silently dumping the dollar, a US🇺🇸 dollar crisis is coming soon! ‘China is gradually weaning themselves off of the dollar. That’s why, if you look at their holdings of US Treasuries, they’ve actually gone down a bit over the years. If you look at all the new Treasuries we’ve issued over the years, the fact that the Chinese haven’t bought any of them is a big deal because they used to be a main buyer of these assets. Instead of buying more Treasuries, they’ve bought more gold. So if you look at US dollar debt as a percentage of all the reserves the Chinese own, Treasuries are a much smaller percentage of their total reserves than they once were, especially if you consider the appreciation of gold. I would guess the reason they’re not moving more dramatically is because they probably don’t want to cause a crash, the dollar to implode, the Treasury market to implode, because they are trying to sell and want to get a decent price. So I think they’re happy to slowly bleed it off to try to get that good price. They just have to worry about the impact on the dollar, because if they try to dump too many dollars at once, the dollar could go down, and especially if a lot of other countries see that and want to get out. There could be a run on the dollar. If all the holders decide they want to get out, they don’t want to be the last one holding the dollar, and so it becomes a rush, and we could be in a US dollar crisis relatively soon anyway… I think we’re heading for a real crisis in the US, and I think countries that are smart would be trying to get ahead of that by selling whatever they can, as quietly as they can, out of US dollars and any US dollar-denominated debt.’ -Peter Schiff on Going Underground

Trump continues to insist that BRICS wants to destroy the dollar. ‘If we lose the dollar’s status as a world currency, it will be like losing a war, a big world war. We will not allow that to happen. There is a saying: ‘the dollar is king’. The dollar is king. And we are going to keep it that way! If anyone wants to challenge that, they can, but they will have to pay a high price for it. And I don’t think any of them are willing to pay that price.’ There is no plan for a BRICS dollar. Only thing there might be is a non-SWIFT payment system and encouraging countries to use their own dollar. Slavyangrad

Former World Bank Director, Erik Bethel, breaks down a US dollar collapse scenario. “How are they buying it? Well they buy it by printing money. The artificial demand for dollars around the world is largely due to the fact that 60% of central banks have the dollar sitting in reserves. If the dollar isn’t there because nobody wants to use the dollar, we’re screwed. All that artificial demand for dollars disappears and we crater. We’re not going to be able to pay Medicare. And we’re adding $1 trillion of debt every hundred days. You know our government is paying more in interest on our debt, like over $1 trillion in interest alone. We’re paying more in interest, just in interest to service the debt than we are paying for the Defense Department. People start losing faith in the dollar. We see huge amounts of inflation, perhaps hyperinflation.”

#WATCH | US President Donald Trump says, "... This (The Genius Act) is really strengthening the US Dollar and giving the Dollar a great prominence. There is a little group called BRICS, and it is fading out fast. But BRICS tried and wanted to take over the Dollar and the dominance of the Dollar and the standard of the Dollar. I said that anybody in the BRICS consortium of nations, we are going to tariff you 10% and they had a meeting the following day, and almost nobody showed up... We are not going to let the Dollar slide... If we lost the status of the Dollar as the world's reserve currency, it would be like losing a World War... When I heard about this group of six countries in BRICS, I hit them very hard, and if they ever really form in a meaningful way, it will end very quickly..." Source: The White House/ YouTube

🚨💵Peter Schiff: Sanctions on Russia🇷🇺 marked the beginning of the end of the dollar as the world’s reserve currency “I was very critical at the time of the Biden sanctions against Russia, and I said that would come back to bite the US because I knew how critical the dollar’s reserve currency status was to propping up the US economy. I said that Biden just sent a very loud message, a warning to the world that they need to get rid of their dollars, that they could be the next Russia. If they do something that the United States doesn’t like, they’ve got that weapon. And so why would you want to enable the United States with a weapon to use against you? So I said this is going to result in a lot of selling of US dollars and US Treasuries. And that’s exactly what happened. The reason that gold is over $3300 an ounce is because central banks are getting rid of their dollars. And one of the reasons that the yield on US Treasuries just hit a new multi-year high and continues to rise is because we don’t have all the foreign buyers that Biden scared away. I think we’ve already established the precedent that the dollar is not sacrosanct. And if you’re a nation and you have US dollars, you have US Treasuries and you own them in good faith in that you would trust that they would be a reserve asset, a neutral reserve asset. We’ve already established a precedent that that’s not the case, that we can yank the rug out from under you whenever we want. So I think regardless of what Trump does now, if I was in China or any of these countries, especially China, because, you know, we vilify China, we say China’s our enemy. Okay, well, if China’s our enemy, why the hell do they want to leave themselves vulnerable by owning all of our bonds? And it’s not just Treasuries that they own. They own mortgage-backed securities. They have a tremendous amount of dollar-denominated assets, so I would be completely divesting as quickly as I could.” -Peter Schiff on Going Underground

Just watched Saifedean Ammous talk from Bitcoin 2025 and it’s worth your time. He takes on the idea that Tether is somehow bullish for the US dollar—and dismantles it. Even in the most optimistic scenario, where Tether grows 100x and buys massive amounts of Treasuries, the impact on US debt is tiny. But here’s where it gets interesting: Tether is stacking Bitcoin. Quietly, steadily. And over time, those Bitcoin reserves may outpace the dollar ones. If that happens, Tether doesn’t just stay pegged—it could revalue upward. A dollar-plus stablecoin, backed by Bitcoin, not Treasuries. His point? Tether isn’t rescuing the dollar. It might actually be helping the world move away from it. “The real risk to Tether isn’t volatility. It’s US default. And Bitcoin is the hedge.” If you want to understand the shifting dynamics between stablecoins, fiat debt, and Bitcoin—this talk lays it out clearly.

🇺🇸 SEC. SCOTT BESSENT: STABLECOINS COULD REINFORCE DOLLAR SUPREMACY "I think stablecoins could reinforce dollar supremacy because with stablecoins, stablecoins could end up being one of the largest buyers of US treasuries or T bills.

SCOTT BESSENT: STABLECOINS COULD REINFORCE DOLLAR SUPREMACY "I think stablecoins could reinforce dollar supremacy because with stablecoins, stablecoins could end up being one of the largest buyers of US treasuries or T bills. So all of a sudden, if you are using a stablecoin in Nigeria that is backed by the US dollar, you don't actually have to have dollars.” Source: Cointelegraph

"I could see the growth of the stablecoin market dramatically eclipsing the growth of the euro dollar market. And so over time, you've kind of got these parallel systems and the new system is kind of cannibalizing the old system. But I also think, from a government's perspective, you don't want it all just to disappear because of some blackout or some. So I think physical currency is still going to exist. One of the ways that they fund these black projects is through cash because it's not traceable, right? I don't think that the Pentagon wants to put all of their transactions on the blockchain that everybody can see. It's almost like a belt in suspenders. They're going to have kind of redundant systems. And so one system is physical cash. Another system is gold. Another system is the traditional euro dollar market. And the newest system is this US dollar stablecoin. So it's a number of different systems through which you can deliver the same value." Santiago Capital of 💰 🔗

Elon Musk’s DOGE is the most important American Agency right now “If we balanced our budget tomorrow, we still run a trillion dollar deficit every year just because we owe it on the interest on the debt. This is so obviously a crisis” Joe Rogan Show “The DOGE thing — The US Federal government is the biggest organization in the history of the world. We spend more than any other government in the history of the world has ever spent. We are so far in debt now that the interest on the debt is now. I believe last year it was $1.2 trillion, and it's going up. The interest on the debt is now overtaking the entire budget. Like, I remember when trillion dollar deficits were crazy... ‌ If we balanced our budget tomorrow, we still run a trillion dollar deficit every year just because we owe it on the interest on the debt. This is so obviously a crisis. And then they're trying to convince you that the real crisis is that Elon Musk and a few of his genius nerd buddies want to open the books. Like, how the f*ck can you convince anyone of that? Well, the Democrats are really good at having a narrative and then marching with it. They're really good at it.

Oh boy… 👀 Treasury Secretary: “We’re going to put a lot of thought into the stablecoin regime, and as President Trump has directed, we’re going to keep the U.S. dollar the dominant currency in the world, and we will use stablecoins to do that.” What are Stablecoins? — These are cryptocurrencies designed to have a steady value (e.g., $1 per coin), often pegged to the U.S. dollar. In essence, He’s signaling a strategic approach to regulate stablecoins—possibly encouraging their use under U.S. oversight—so they support the dollar rather than compete with it (e.g., preventing a rival like a Chinese digital yuan from taking over). 🔴 Why this is a big deal? The U.S. dollar’s current status gives us huge advantages—cheap loans, sanctioning power, and global influence. Stablecoins moved $10 trillion in 2024. 🤯 With China pushing its own digital currency, Trump is basically fighting it back to make sure the dollar remains king and it will, for decades. All the while, blockchain technology get’s more and more implemented into the financial system. Don’t confuse blockchain with Crypto. If you know what you’re doing and what to invest in… if this goes through, you can make a lot of money.

The Buck Stops Here: Epstein Explains Rentier Oligarchy Plainly: The Dollar is a Debt That Will Never be Repaid Here Epstein very eloquently describes the power of finance capital through debt: for every dollar the bank has, it can lend out 10 in "our system". This is impossible for the average person to understand. You need Hudson to decode WHY this is the case, how the dollar operates as the world reserve (with the Euro as a silly lab experiment that is totally subservient and essentially 1:1) and why one dollar of real money equals 10 of speculative potential. It's because the dollar is where "the buck stops" - no one can claim to want anything else because there is nothing else. You either play with the arcades tokens or you do not play at all. The dollar is a Ponzi scheme that represents a debt to itself; one that will never be repaid. In this sense all dialectics becomes self referential and tautological and contained: the dollar hegemony is both it's own debtor and creditor. Epstein wasn't very smart, all he could understand was "I can make 10 with 1 real one." That's it, it's not hard, it simply requires a person to flush all reality down the toilet and ignore all common sense. At the end of the day in "our system" more debt = more asset value. If you told the average person on the street that you were 100 million in debt and this was your "asset", they would laugh. But you have to pay the bank. The financial oligarch and the US Government doesn't have to pay anyone. In a bizarre way, this is actually Communism. The structure of a system that can command the value multiplication of 1 to 10 must have all possible future trajectories planned, all possible outcomes weighed and measured, and all power and authority. Then they kind of calculation required to temporally move labor power from the future into the present succeeds; this is a time machine. But in the hands of a stunted pedophile rentier elite, futures are not planned, there is no guarantee, and the bounty of the future becomes a triangle on the top of the pyramid without anything but a volatile herd of feudal lords pecking away at it's basis. It cannot sustain what is necessary to access the future. Epstein is so dumb he doesn't realize his entire system was essentially explained to the US government by Hudson in the early 70's when they realized that "the buck stops here." It took the last intelligent Marxist to tell the Empire how it's own money worked. "Fractionalized reserves" as the gateway to unlimited debt.

#WATCH | On announcing 25% tariff, plus a penalty on India, US President Donald Trump says, "...Prime Minister Modi is a friend of mine, but they don't do very much business in terms of business with us. They sell a lot to us, but we don't buy from them...Because the tariff is so high. They have one of the highest tariffs in the world now. They are willing to cut it very substantially. But we will see what happens...." He further says, "We are negotiating right now and it's also BRICS. BRICS, which is basically a group of countries that are anti the United States and India is a member of that...It is an attack on the dollar and we are not going to let anybody attack the dollar. So it's partially BRICS and it's partially trade...We had a tremendous deficit. Prime Minister Modi is a friend of mine, but they don't do very much business in terms of business with us. They sell a lot to us, but we don't buy from them...Because the tariff is so high. They have one of the highest tariffs in the world. Now, they are willing to cut it very substantially. But we will see what happens. We are talking to India now. We will see what happens. It doesn't matter too much whether we have a deal or we charge them a certain tariff. But you will know at the end of this week..." (Source: The White House)

YOKO ONO: ONOCHORD, VENICE, 2004 Yoko: The world is divided in two industries. One is the War Industry and the other is the Peace Industry. The people in the War Industry are totally together. They don't have to talk to each other, even. They know exactly what they want to do. They want to go out there, kill and make money. But the people in the Peace Industry, which are us - we are so idealistic that each one of us criticises the other Peace Person in the Peace Industry. And we are always just arguing and we are wasting our energies doing that. So let's just forgive each other and see that we are in the Peace Industry and that's all that counts. Even if you are not marching for peace, just be yourself, being a florist, being a merchant, being a talior, anything. That way you're contributing to the Peace Industry. People are just concentrating on fear, confusion and anger. And therefore just for a moment, I'd like us to think about Love. In a very magical, straight way, John and I met in London and from then on we stood for Peace and Love. And when I do this kind of event. Well it is... I was inspired to do it, but I still think that I'm still with John in spirit. John and I created the country called Nutopia. Not Utopia, because there was Utopia as a concept already. And we wanted to create a new concept, so we just added N on it - Nutopia - and as a country. Well, that is the concept of a country. And we all are citizens of that country. And in my apartment in the Dakota Building, we put a little plaque on the back door, the kitchen door. It says 'Nutopian Embassy' and even now we have that. (laughs). Nutopia exists in our minds. And because of that, some people want to rebel against it. The reason some want to rebel against it is a good proof that it exists. I think that it was a terrible thing that happened in Chechnya. But we have to still keep our hopes up. And instead of giving up, we have to keep on sending the message of Love to each other. You say that I am the Ambassador of Peace. We are all Ambassadors of Peace. You are too. Everybody in this room are Ambassadors of Peace. Just the fact that we are not participating in War. The fact that we are here, and we are what we are, means that we are in the Peace Industry. All of us. John and I used to say that our apartment in the Dakota is a conceptual monastry, just for the two of us. And when we go out of the Dakota, we get so many people communicating with us, so it's very important that we had silence and quietness. And my apartment is a very small space compared to the world. And I need that for my peace of mind. You should be kind to each other. You should come together, hug each other, love each other, express our love to each other and we should make it work. We should finally create a world that is a totally an Earth for Us. So let's do it.

There is so much to unpack here… times are changing FAST… Trump says we will now have Dollar-backed stablecoins, which are cryptocurrencies pegged to the value of the U.S. dollar, typically at a 1:1 ratio, to maintain price stability. They are backed by reserves of U.S. dollars or dollar-equivalent assets (like Treasury bonds) held by the issuer. Stablecoins will replace SWIFT, and now be used by Consumers, vendors, businesses, and banks all over the world for lightening fast, ultra-low transactions. The Genius act provides banks, businesses, and financial institutions a framework to issue crypto assets back 1:1 with real US Dollars, treasury bills, and other cash equivalents. He says BRICS wanted to take over the dollar, but is now dead! Dollar decentralization refers to the process of reducing reliance on the U.S. dollar as the dominant global currency for trade, reserves, and financial transactions. It involves diversifying away from the dollar toward other currencies, cryptocurrencies, or alternative financial systems to mitigate risks associated with U.S. monetary policy, sanctions, or economic instability. This will establish the US dollar as the world’s reserve currency for generations to come.

As managers of the economy, we have remained steadfast in our duty to ensure a strong and stable Cedi. Our strong commitment to fiscal discipline, has contributed to the strengthening of the currency. We remain committed, and we shall stay the course to ensure that the Cedi’s gains are maintained. As citizens, we have a role to play. We must maintain the sanctity of the Cedi as a legal tender, by preserving it with dignity and protecting it jealously. Let me use this opportunity to remind Ghanaians that the US dollar is not our currency. The continuous pricing of goods and services in US dollar will only hurt us. Let’s stop it!

. Michael Saylor explains why Strategy's real business isn't Bitcoin - it's selling credit to people who want the upside without the bumpy ride "We're like a reserve bank. We have a reserve asset - Bitcoin. We will sell credit. We are stripping the performance and the risk off of the bitcoin." "Bitcoin's got 40 vol and it's got high performance. But most of the world wants zero vol. What they want is a bank account that pays them 10 or 11%." "For every dollar of equity capital of Bitcoin that we have - digital capital - you can create 10 to $0.20 of credit. We've sold about $10 billion of credit. We'll create $20 billion of digital credit over the next year, then grow that 30 to 50% a year."
