This is amazing! I’m so glad i got the game. One recommendation that would change the sim game completely is to have free text option in text messaging & have AI responses tailored to the Zoi’s personality & values.

OWN YOUR INTELLIGENCE Last year, building on open-weight models was primarily a cost rationalization exercise. Slightly worse performance for a much cheaper price. Now, it is increasingly an existential and strategic topic for our portfolio. Intelligence is the product. Companies want to shape it and own it and let it compound within their own walls. Not your weights, not your product. Now, with frontier open-weight models and fantastic tooling/infrastructure, owning your intelligence at the frontier is finally becoming possible. The result: every application company we work with is embarking on the journey of doing their own research on post-training, evals, harnesses, etc. The hottest neolabs may just be Harvey, Factory, RamPrasad "RamP!" Moudgalya, etc. The list goes on. We held a summit Sequoia Capital to convene our portfolio on this topic, together with Gabe Pereyra (Harvey) on building Harvey Labs, Lin Qiao (Fireworks) on post-training, Harrison Chase (LangChain) on harnesses + evals, Brendan (can/do) () on RL environments and synthetic data, Arjun Karanam (Trajectory) on online continual learning. Opening talk below; rest to come this week! 00:00 What is sovereign AI (and what it isn't) 01:24 Centralized vs. decentralized intelligence 02:54 Four reasons companies own their models: cost, speed, performance, destiny 04:22 "Not your weights, not your product" 05:32 The application companies are the newest neo labs 07:05 Step 1: Deciding what to own vs. rent 09:51 Step 2: Build the team (and don't shoehorn your platform team) 11:17 Step 3: Legibility – why your research has to be visible 12:33 Step 4: The technical roadmap 13:56 The stack: production vs. development 15:16 Opening Pandora's box – base models, harnesses, context

The new Google Search is rolling out. Information Agents are now appearing inside AI Mode. These agents operate in the background 24/7, continuously monitoring the web for information matching the customer’s exact requirements. When something relevant changes, Google can send them a detailed update with links to the web. For businesses, this changes things a lot. Let’s go through it together. And if you want to see whether your business is already appearing across Google AI, ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Grok, check here. It’s free: Google originally announced Information Agents at Google I/O in May. They are now available across all AI Mode languages and markets for Google AI Ultra subscribers. Google says access will expand to more people this summer. The process is fairly simple in that a user tells AI Mode what they want to monitor. For example: “Keep me updated when a new apartment matching these requirements becomes available.” “Alert me when one of my favorite athletes announces a sneaker collaboration.” Another possible use case could be: “Tell me when this product comes back in stock.” Google’s agent then works in the background and sends an update when it finds something relevant. Google says Information Agents can monitor: Blogs News websites Social posts Other web content Real-time shopping information Finance data Sports information The agent searches for changes related to the user’s specific question. This creates a new type of search visibility. A customer no longer needs to return to Google and repeat the same query every week. They can describe what they need once and let Google monitor the web for them. For businesses, that creates opportunities to appear after the original search has ended. Imagine someone tells Google: “Keep me updated on payroll software that adds better support for construction companies with employees and contractors.” Several weeks later, your company publishes: A new contractor-payment feature A construction-specific product page Updated pricing A QuickBooks integration A customer case study A comparison with another payroll platform Google’s agent may encounter that information while monitoring the topic. Your company can reach the customer at the moment your product becomes more relevant to them. This is my interpretation of what the rollout means for businesses. Google has not disclosed exactly how Information Agents select which pages or companies to include. But we do know the updates can contain links to the web. That creates a potential traffic opportunity for businesses publishing information that closely matches what customers are monitoring. A vague announcement such as: “We are excited to introduce several powerful improvements.” gives Google less specific information to match against the customer’s request. A clearer announcement might say: “Our payroll platform now supports automated contractor payments in all 50 states. The feature is available today on plans beginning at $149 per month and integrates with QuickBooks Online.” That gives the agent specific facts it can match to the customer’s request. This is where SEO Stuff’s done-for-you package becomes relevant: The package combines 10 AI-search-optimized articles with three DR50+ authority placements. The content can cover: New products and features Industry-specific use cases Pricing Integrations Comparisons Customer results Frequently changing information The authority placements reinforce the company’s identity, category and claims across other credible websites. Google has not said that Information Agents directly measure Ahrefs Domain Rating or backlinks. That connection is my interpretation of how businesses can become easier for Google to discover and verify across the web. Information Agents also make freshness more commercially important. A page published two years ago may still rank well. But if it has not been updated, it may not tell Google about: A newly launched feature A recent price change A product coming back in stock A new service area An updated integration A current customer result A newly published report Businesses need a system for keeping important information current and publishing meaningful updates when something changes. This does not mean publishing a constant stream of thin announcements. The update still needs to contain something genuinely useful. That could include: New product information Original research Current pricing Inventory changes Industry data Detailed case studies New integrations Updated comparisons Specific customer results The Premium Content Bundle can help build that broader information footprint: It includes 60 long-form articles mapped across the questions, comparisons and use cases surrounding a business. The goal is to create useful pages covering the different needs a customer may ask Google to monitor. One customer may care about pricing. Another may care about a specific integration. Another may be waiting for a feature. Another may want a product designed for their industry. Another may want evidence that the service works. Each page creates another opportunity for an Information Agent to discover the business while monitoring the web. This rollout also makes brand consistency more important. Google may encounter information about your company across: Your website News coverage Social posts Industry publications Review websites Comparison pages Customer discussions If those sources describe the company differently, Google has to determine which information is current and accurate. Clear and consistent information gives the agent stronger evidence to work with. If I had to reduce this rollout to one core idea, it would be this: Search is becoming continuous. The customer describes what they need. Google monitors the web in the background. A relevant change can trigger an update. That update can include links to supporting websites. For businesses, visibility increasingly depends on being discoverable at the moment something changes. That requires: Current product information Clear positioning Specific feature and pricing details Useful industry content Meaningful updates Consistent third-party validation Pages worth sending the customer to The businesses that benefit most will make it easy for Google to understand what changed, who it matters to and why the customer should care. This is the system SEO Stuff was built around: And if you want to see whether your business is already being cited, understood and recommended across Google AI, ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Grok, check here:

The most ‘Founder Mode’ CEO working today is not actually the founder. NEW EPISODE with Kaz Kaz Nejatian of Opendoor is now live. This is a special one. Kaz left Shopify to pull off the refounding of a struggling public company in just 16 days. Incredible story. Here are just a few of my learnings from our conversation on the latest episode of Long Strange Trip: 1. First Derivative Businesses The most enduring companies are rarely built on their primary activity; they are built on the first derivative of that core business. Great founders identify and weaponize the secondary value stream. This is important. 2. Rejecting Defaults Success is a function of the defaults you choose to overwrite. Most operators accept the 'software' of their industry or life on autopilot; exceptional builders identify the one or two critical defaults and fight them with all their power to create a new trajectory. Kaz is a master at this, and he explains how. 3. Stewardship Over Status Optimize for doing things rather than being things. When a leader optimizes for a title or happiness, they create fragile organizations; when they optimize for stewardship and service, they build a mission-driven culture that can withstand the lonely and painful stretches of the journey. 4. Write a user manual for yourself "Strong attract, strong repel. My job is to tell you what kind of a person I am so you can opt in or opt out." I love this quote. If you're a founder, you owe this to everyone around you. 5. Founder mode = responsibility for outcomes Hold yourself responsible for truth and outcomes, not processes. Hire people to round you out. Don't try to be well-rounded yourself. And don't work on your weaknesses. "Is the fact that I'm bad at this the reason I'm good at everything else?" 6. Structural Risk Mispricing The one permanent advantage for entrepreneurs is that the rest of the world structurally misprices risk. While others see a 'lion bite' in every setback, the best CEOs recognizes that things going poorly is not as painful as you think, allowing them to lean into volatility that scares off the incumbent. That's the difference. 7. Death Spiral Honesty When a company is in a death spiral, incrementalism is fatal; "what must change os everything." Professional managers are often incentivized by RSUs to delay the inevitable and manage a slow decline. You need zero incentive to manage a decline and a compensation structure aligned purely with performance. 8. AI as the New Performance Default Default to AI is not a suggestion; it is the first line of the job description. A company becomes AI-native not through top-down mandates, but by making AI proficiency a core pillar of the performance management system - effectively deciding who gets to play on the team based on their ability to automate their own craft. 9. The Career vs. Job Distinction "A job is something you do for someone else in order to get paid. A career is something you work on every day for yourself." Kaz's kids know what Opendoor is. His family is all in. Exceptional companies are built by people who self-identify with their work and treat their professional mission as a family-integrated pursuit. 10. Two timeframes matter. Everything else is noise. This week and 10 years from now. "This quarter is a deeply useless measuring period." tobi lutke applies a discount rate of basically zero to the future. That's the model. My takeaway from this conversation: ask yourself what defaults you're living by that you haven't deliberately chosen. Kaz overrides every default, and he does it over and over again.

** Sega Genesis 3D Engine Update 8 ** Significant improvements all round as you can see and hear from the last update !! Foremost - A huge thanks to Toni Gálvez - Megastyle - BG. who has joined the project to create a bit of 16bit low poly magic. Toni's an Amiga fan but also crazy about game dev in general, he's worked on GBC, GBA, PC, MD, PSP, C64, CPC, MSX... and others. Gaming titles include War Times, Metal Gear, Rocketman, Tintin & Asterix to name a few. He's provided the great new ship model you see on screen - new striped buildings, all the backgrounds / palettes etc. There's a lot of models he's given me which need to be added, also he will be planning a lot of the level design. Very happy to have him help me turn this into something more than a tech demo as I have my hands tied pushing the MD as far as it can go haha - there is no cpu cycle to be spared. Also many thanks to my good friend CYBERDEOUS - Crouzet Laurent for the Music for this showing , I wanted to have the music load occurring so we have a realistic benchmark for performance and he was only too obliging. If you're into MD chiptunes check him out !! Since last update : New player model , substantially more detailed than the Arwing. Last update had a 23 triangle Arwing , this update has a 39 triangle custom model from Toni. We had several to choose from , others will be used for enemies . 3D Buffer size increased 25% to 256x160. This was quite tricky as I'm close to the DMA limit even with an extended vblank . Spent a few days thinking of how to do this as like anything retro every solution has a drawback, finally got a workable solution. It makes a big difference to have a bit more vertical height . Z Rotation added ( the screen tilting left to right ) , small hit to vertex transform on cpu thanks to look up tables doing the heavy lifting, saving 4 multiplies per vertex. Multiple speed ups in rendering code. Onscreen paths with no range checking used until Z is close enough to cause clipping , partial onscreen drawing pathes that need to check boundaries, quad rendering completely rewritten - was very very painfull to get right . I found out the hard way that things are great when they are not rotating in the Z axis haha . Partial buffer draw optimisations - which have helped with the massive dma load , sending up to a 20kb buffer in a single frame needs a lot of optimisation. Min / Max tile lines are analysed and only sent if dirtied , reducing most buffer swaps substantially. Still some issues to sort out , at times you can see the flicker near top of screen when frames are near full height . I need to optimise that a bit. Due to the onscreen buffer system a full Sprite background had to be implemented almost Neo Geo style. This flips the usual MD rendering system on its head as it uses both foreground and background layers for a foreground 3d plane and sprites for the background. This presents a few issues, one is to get a tilt effect on the background by using narrow sprites (16x32) we run out of sprites when trying to cover the screen. Thankfully the MD is not limited to 80 sprites, to fix this a 114 sprite multiplexor is used to draw the background, its completely made up of 16x32 sprites ! Why do things this way ? speed . Its the interleaved foreground/background layers that allow a double buffered ram system writing to write to vram using dma in a completely linear fashion - virtually no tile translation needed. The negative is you have no planes for the background, that's where the sprites come in . Thanks to H40 mode we still have a few sprites we can use for effects in the forground also . Thankfully we can implement a fairly good tilt still for the background using sprites, in future updates this will be able to move horizontally also and a bit of vertical movement. XGM1 music driver in use to simulate music cpu load, XGM2 unfortunately with the massive DMA needed to shift the 3d buffers would slow down at times rendering it unusable, XGM1 plays at full speed - albiet with a bit more of a cpu hit. Together with the sprite multiplexor and the music driver active theres a 10 % hit to cpu so I've had to play around with draw distances / object heights and other optimisations to offset that. Not to mention the larger buffer takes more cpu to fill also. Everything is placeholder so will be changed with proper stage design. We are averaging 20 FPS in the current video, I'll push for more as always !! Progress continues on my other projects , updates soon on those - retirement can't come quick enough . #SGDK #SegaGenesis #SegaMegadrive

The Agent Economy Has a Trillion-Dollar Blindspot. Here’s How We’re Solving It. The agent economy isn’t “arriving”. It’s been here. While it’s projected to grow to trillions by 2030, AI agents are already deeply embedded in purchasing. Amazon’s Rufus led to over $12 billion in incremental sales in 2025 across 300 million users. AI-referred retail traffic was up 805% YoY during Black Friday 2025. In a six-month window, Google, PayPal, Shopify, Stripe, OpenAI, Coinbase, and Visa all shipped agent commerce infrastructure to power this wave. And that was before agent capabilities exploded in early 2026. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong: “Very soon there are going to be more AI agents than humans making transactions. Stripe CEO Patrick Collison: “In the not-too-distant future, agents will account for most transactions online” Shopify CEO Tobi Lütke: "We're making every Shopify store agent-ready by default" Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai: "Soon you'll see a buy button directly on Google surfaces including AI Mode in Search and Gemini" Learning from History By the mid-1990s, all the technology behind e-commerce existed, albeit in rudimentary form. Amazon and eBay had both launched to some aplomb, garnering attention and viral growth. But people weren’t buying: Amazon’s first-year revenue was a paltry ~$500,000. eBay was only doing $10,000 a month in 1996. And despite nostalgic narratives about the Internet’s explosive growth, it didn’t change commerce all that quickly. By the year 2000, only 22% of Americans had bought something online. US e-commerce did just $27B — less than 1% of America’s $3T+ total retail. The missing factor? Trust. No one trusted e-commerce sites. 86% of shoppers were concerned about unknown parties getting their info. Entering your credit card details into a website felt like staring into the abyss. Slowly, the trust layer was built up. PayPal launched buyer protection, Visa freed cardholders from liability for fraudulent charges, and Amazon launched a no-questions-asked refund policy. As more and more big players followed suit, adding trust to every step of online shopping, demand was finally unleashed, and online shopping became a way of life for billions of consumers. Having your agent buy things for you isn’t easy yet because the trust layer is missing. No end-to-end AI shopping eval exists. Existing benchmarks are limited and gameable, and closed-source labs grade their own homework. OpenAI doesn’t publish their shopping accuracy, instead mysteriously rolling back their Instant Checkout feature after just a month. Platforms like Amazon and Shopify are incentivized keep shopping data in-house. What We’re Doing About It We're building the trust layer for AI shopping, powered by open-source competition on Bittensor. Each week, we pay miners from around the world $80,000+ to compete to build the best shopping agent. And it’s working – we’re nearing 4000 agents submitted in just a few weeks, with hundreds added every day. Our top agents beat SOTA in a matter of weeks, but we aren’t satisfied. We use what we learn from hosting this competition to continually improve both agent performance and our eval – because the better the eval, the more trust we can add to every agentic transaction. There are dozens of untapped avenues to improve how shopping agents are evaluated – from sourcing catalogues for long-tail SKUs to generating synthetic data to changing the structure of our competition itself. Every week, we’re tapping more and more of those rich veins of opportunity until we are the de-facto standard for not just shopping agent performance, but how these agents are evaluated. The Hidden Benefit There’s a hidden benefit to building something as overlooked as a trust layer. Whoever builds the end-to-end gold standard for “does this agent actually work?” becomes the trust layer. But it doesn’t end there. Trust layers become protocols. And protocols become the most valuable companies in any market. Just look at Visa. Visa doesn’t make or sell any products itself. Instead, it’s the trust & verification layer for online transactions, sitting between buyer and seller. Its tiny take rate of ~0.2% on over $15 trillion in annual transaction volume is enough to net it a valuation of $550 billion. At Oro, we aim to do the same for AI shopping. Becoming the trust layer enables us to undergird agent-to-agent purchases, merchant access, and all the other pieces of agentic commerce. That’s our Holy Grail. After all, if you look where everyone else is looking, you’ll find what everyone else is finding. That’s why Oro is breaking the overlooked bottleneck of AI shopping – trust.

The Agent Economy Has a Trillion-Dollar Blindspot. Here’s How We’re Solving It. The agent economy isn’t “arriving”. It’s been here. While it’s projected to grow to trillions by 2030, AI agents are already deeply embedded in purchasing. Amazon’s Rufus led to over $12 billion in incremental sales in 2025 across 300 million users. AI-referred retail traffic was up 805% YoY during Black Friday 2025. In a six-month window, Google, PayPal, Shopify, Stripe, OpenAI, Coinbase, and Visa all shipped agent commerce infrastructure to power this wave.

Made $313 → $2,382,780 in 4 Days Using a Claude AI Bot on Polymarket. 26,738 trades. 98% win rate. Full blockchain proof. Every single trade verifiable on-chain. I've made the exact step-by-step guide to build this Claude Polymarket bot from scratch. You've been trading for 3 years. Still red. He gave Claude $313. Woke up rich. Free for 24 hours. To get this Setup guide: 1. Comment "Money" 2. Like and Retweet 3. Follow me Himanshu Kumar (so i can DM you) Full 2-hour video tutorial attached. Every single click and command explained. Beginner to running bot. Now let me break down exactly how this works. Save this post. This is the most important trading breakdown you'll ever read. ↓ Let's start with the number that should make you sick. $313. That's what this wallet started with. Not $50,000. Not $10,000. Not even $1,000. $313. Less than your monthly Netflix + Uber Eats + Spotify combined. 4 months later: $2,382,780.80. That's a 7,942x return. While you spent those same 4 months staring at charts, drawing trendlines, panic selling, revenge trading, and ending the month exactly where you started. Minus the $200 you lost on that "sure thing." Same 4 months. Same market. Same opportunities. He had a bot. You had feelings. Guess who won. Save this post right now. What I'm about to explain is the exact mechanism behind every dollar of that $2.38M. Follow Himanshu Kumar so you don't miss the rest. ↓ How Polymarket actually works and why bots print money on it. Polymarket is a prediction market. Will BTC be higher in 15 minutes? Yes or No. Will the Fed raise rates? Yes or No. You buy shares between $0 and $1. If you're right, your share settles at $1. If you're wrong, it settles at $0. Simple. Now here's where it gets interesting. Polymarket updates its prices SLOWER than the real market moves. When BTC drops 0.6% on Binance, Polymarket still shows old odds for about 2.7 seconds. 2.7 seconds. In those 2.7 seconds, the bot already knows the outcome. It's not predicting. It's not guessing. It's reading information that already exists and trading before Polymarket catches up. That's not trading. That's collecting free money with a 2.7 second head start. And you're over there using a 15-indicator TradingView setup trying to "predict" where BTC goes next. The bot doesn't predict anything. It just reads faster than you. That's the entire edge. Save this post because if you understand this one concept you understand how millionaires are being made on Polymarket right now. Follow Himanshu Kumar for more breakdowns like this. ↓ Let me walk you through one single trade. A new 15-minute BTC contract opens on Polymarket. Odds are 50/50. Fair price. 10 minutes in, BTC drops 0.6% on Binance. Hard, fast move. The real probability of BTC being lower at expiry is now about 78%. Polymarket still shows 54/46. The bot sees this instantly. Binance WebSocket feed. Under 50ms latency. The edge is 24 percentage points. On a binary contract, that's basically free money. Bot calculates position size using Kelly Criterion. Executes via Polymarket's API. Done. Within 2-3 seconds, other participants update the odds. 54/46 moves toward 78/22. Bot either exits for immediate profit or holds to resolution. Either way, the trade was entered with near-certainty of a positive outcome. Now repeat this 200-500 times per day. $313 → $2,382,780 in 4 months. Not magic. Not prediction. Not luck. Industrial-scale exploitation of a market inefficiency that still exists today. And you're still placing one manual trade per day and calling yourself a "trader." This is the mechanism behind every single dollar. Bookmark this post so you can study it again. Follow Himanshu Kumar because I'm breaking down each strategy separately. ↓ There are 4 strategies. Not all Claude bots do the same thing. Strategy 1: Latency Arbitrage. Win rate: 85-98%. What 0x8dxd used. Monitor Binance price feeds. When Polymarket odds lag behind reality by 3-5%, buy the correct side before the market corrects. No forecasting. No model. No sentiment analysis. Pure speed. You're not guessing. You're reading an outcome that has already happened. Strategy 2: Oracle Arbitrage. Win rate: 78-85%. Chainlink oracle price feeds occasionally diverge from Polymarket's implied prices. When they do, the settlement direction is known. Fewer opportunities. Higher certainty when they appear. Strategy 3: News-Driven Trading. Win rate: 60-75%. Claude ingests real-time news. Government filings. Central bank statements. On-chain data. Assesses probability impact before retail traders even finish reading the headline. Lower win rate because interpretation introduces uncertainty. But works on ANY market category, not just crypto. Strategy 4: Market Making. Return: 2-5% per month. Place buy and sell orders on both sides. Capture the spread. No prediction required. Most consistent. Hardest to blow up. Compounds aggressively over time. You didn't even know there were 4 strategies. You thought "trading bot" meant one thing. That's how far behind you are. 4 strategies. 4 different risk profiles. 4 ways to make money while you sleep. Save this post. Follow Himanshu Kumar for the deep dive into each one. ↓ The timeline that should haunt you. December 2025: Bot launches with $313. Nobody notices. January 6, 2026: Wallet hits ~$438,000. 140x in 30 days. 6,615 predictions. 98% win rate. Finbold reports it. Crypto Twitter explodes. March 10, 2026: Head-to-head test. Claude bot: $1,000 → $14,216 in 48 hours. +1,322%. OpenClaw bot: fully liquidated. Same market. Same timeframe. Claude won because of better risk management. OpenClaw died because it overleveraged. March 16, 2026: Someone trains a swarm model on 3 years of NBA data. Result: +$1.49M on Polymarket. April 2026: 0x8dxd final verified balance: $2,382,780.80. 26,738 trades. 4 months. This all happened while you were "waiting for the right time to start." The right time was December 2025. The second best time is right now. But you'll probably wait until it's too late. That's what you always do. Every date on this timeline is a day you could have started but didn't. Save this post. Follow Himanshu Kumar so you at least start today. ↓ Why Claude and not ChatGPT? This isn't opinion. It's data. March 2026 head-to-head: Claude bot: +1,322%. OpenClaw (GPT-based): liquidated. Same prompt. Same market. Same conditions. Researchers found Claude's code included: > More defensive edge cases > More conservative default parameters > Better error handling > More legible code for debugging > Proper Kelly Criterion position sizing > Hard drawdown kill switches ChatGPT's code overleveraged into a losing sequence and couldn't recover. Claude's code sized positions conservatively, stopped trading when drawdown thresholds hit, and survived to compound another day. The difference between +1,322% and liquidation wasn't the strategy. It was the risk management. And Claude writes better risk management than ChatGPT. That's not a debate. That's a $15,216 difference in 48 hours. But sure, keep using ChatGPT because "everyone uses it." Everyone's broke too. Coincidence? Stop using the popular tool. Start using the profitable one. Save this post. Follow Himanshu Kumar for more Claude vs ChatGPT comparisons with real data. ↓ Why humans lose to bots. Every single time. Same strategy. Same market. Same period. Bots: ~$206,000 profit. Humans: ~$100,000 profit. 2x gap. Same strategy. Here's why: 1. Late entries. By the time you identify the lag, verify your reasoning, and click buy, the 2.7 second window is gone. The bot executes in under 100ms. You execute in 30 seconds. The opportunity doesn't exist for 30 seconds. 2. Emotional sizing. You oversize when "confident." Undersize when scared. Exact opposite of Kelly math. The bot sizes based on edge. Every time. No feelings. 3. Fatigue. You make worse decisions at hour 6 than at hour 1. The bot makes the same decision at hour 72 that it made at hour 1. 4. Drawdown psychology. After 3 losses you either panic quit or double down trying to recover. Both destroy capital. The bot has a kill switch. It stops. It doesn't feel anything. You're not competing with other humans anymore. You're competing with machines that don't sleep, don't feel, don't flinch. And you're losing. The data doesn't lie. Humans lose to bots 2x on the same strategy. Save this post. Follow Himanshu Kumar for the complete bot setup that removes you from the equation. ↓ What can go wrong. Because I'm not going to lie to you. Most people who build this bot will NOT 7,942x their money. Some will lose their initial capital. Here's what can kill you: Edge compression. The arbitrage window was 12 seconds in 2024. It's 2.7 seconds now. It's shrinking. At some point it hits zero for retail operators. This is a time-limited opportunity. Not a permanent income stream. Rule changes. Polymarket can change contract mechanics, settlement rules, or API terms overnight. What worked yesterday can lose money tomorrow. Risk management bugs. A 98% win rate strategy with broken position sizing will blow up your account on the one losing trade. The March 2026 experiment proved this. Claude survived. OpenClaw got liquidated. Same strategy. Different risk management. That's why the 2-hour video tutorial walks through every single risk parameter. Because the strategy doesn't kill you. Bad risk management kills you. This is the section most "gurus" delete. I'm keeping it because I'd rather you make money safely than blow up and blame me. Save this post. Follow Himanshu Kumar for honest breakdowns, not hype. ↓ The step-by-step to build your own. Step 1: Set up a Polymarket wallet. Fund with USDC via Polygon network. Start with $100-$300 for testing. Step 2: Generate API credentials. CLOB API key from docs.polymarket .com. Store private key in environment variable. Never hardcode it. Never share it. Step 3: Prompt Claude to build the bot. Use Claude Code for best results. It reads your filesystem, executes code, and iterates on errors autonomously. Step 4: Paper trade for at least one week. Minimum 200 completed trades. Win rate must be above 70% before going live. This step is NOT optional. Step 5: Configure risk management. Max single position: 8% of portfolio. Daily loss limit: -20% with auto halt. Kill switch at -40% drawdown. Telegram alerts on every threshold. Step 6: Go live small. $1-5 per trade. Watch every trade for first week. Compare to paper results. Scale only on evidence. Skip steps 4 and 5 and you will lose your money. That's not a warning. That's a guarantee. This is your complete build guide. Save this post. Follow Himanshu Kumar because I'll be posting the exact Claude prompts for each strategy. ↓ The edge exists right now. Not next month. Not "when you're ready." Right now. The arbitrage window is 2.7 seconds. It was 12 seconds in 2024. It's shrinking every week. Every day you wait, more bots enter the space. The window gets smaller. Your potential returns get smaller. The bots already running have a compounding advantage. They're making money today that they'll use to make more money tomorrow. You're reading about it and telling yourself "I'll look into this next weekend." That's what you said last weekend. And the weekend before that. The best time to start was 6 months ago. The second best time is today. But you already know you're going to bookmark this and never open it again. Prove me wrong. ↓ Full 2-hour video tutorial attached. Every single click. Every command. Every parameter. From zero to running bot. Beginner friendly. Nothing skipped. A similar bot has already earned $2,382,780. Full blockchain proof in the article below. The video is free. The tools are free. The edge still exists. The only thing that costs money is another month of doing nothing while bots eat every opportunity you're too slow to catch. Follow Himanshu Kumar for the complete series covering every automated income stream using Claude. Prediction markets are just the beginning. Save this post. Bookmark it. Screenshot it. Whatever you need to do so you actually watch the video and build the bot instead of just reading about people who did. You Must Follow me Himanshu Kumar, so i can send you DM.

This is the mechanism behind every single dollar. Bookmark this post so you can study it again. Follow Himanshu Kumar because I'm breaking down each strategy separately. ↓ There are 4 strategies. Not all Claude bots do the same thing. Strategy 1: Latency Arbitrage. Win rate: 85-98%. What 0x8dxd used. Monitor Binance price feeds. When Polymarket odds lag behind reality by 3-5%, buy the correct side before the market corrects. No forecasting. No model. No sentiment analysis. Pure speed. You're not guessing. You're reading an outcome that has already happened. Strategy 2: Oracle Arbitrage. Win rate: 78-85%. Chainlink oracle price feeds occasionally diverge from Polymarket's implied prices. When they do, the settlement direction is known. Fewer opportunities. Higher certainty when they appear. Strategy 3: News-Driven Trading. Win rate: 60-75%. Claude ingests real-time news. Government filings. Central bank statements. On-chain data. Assesses probability impact before retail traders even finish reading the headline. Lower win rate because interpretation introduces uncertainty. But works on ANY market category, not just crypto. Strategy 4: Market Making. Return: 2-5% per month. Place buy and sell orders on both sides. Capture the spread. No prediction required. Most consistent. Hardest to blow up. Compounds aggressively over time. You didn't even know there were 4 strategies. You thought "trading bot" meant one thing. That's how far behind you are. 4 strategies. 4 different risk profiles. 4 ways to make money while you sleep. Save this post. Follow Himanshu Kumar for the deep dive into each one. ↓ The timeline that should haunt you. December 2025: Bot launches with $313. Nobody notices. January 6, 2026: Wallet hits ~$438,000. 140x in 30 days. 6,615 predictions. 98% win rate. Finbold reports it. Crypto Twitter explodes. March 10, 2026: Head-to-head test. Claude bot: $1,000 → $14,216 in 48 hours. +1,322%. OpenClaw bot: fully liquidated. Same market. Same timeframe. Claude won because of better risk management. OpenClaw died because it overleveraged. March 16, 2026: Someone trains a swarm model on 3 years of NBA data. Result: +$1.49M on Polymarket. April 2026: 0x8dxd final verified balance: $2,382,780.80. 26,738 trades. 4 months. This all happened while you were "waiting for the right time to start." The right time was December 2025. The second best time is right now. But you'll probably wait until it's too late. That's what you always do. Every date on this timeline is a day you could have started but didn't. Save this post. Follow Himanshu Kumar so you at least start today. ↓ Why Claude and not ChatGPT? This isn't opinion. It's data. March 2026 head-to-head: Claude bot: +1,322%. OpenClaw (GPT-based): liquidated. Same prompt. Same market. Same conditions. Researchers found Claude's code included: > More defensive edge cases > More conservative default parameters > Better error handling > More legible code for debugging > Proper Kelly Criterion position sizing > Hard drawdown kill switches ChatGPT's code overleveraged into a losing sequence and couldn't recover. Claude's code sized positions conservatively, stopped trading when drawdown thresholds hit, and survived to compound another day. The difference between +1,322% and liquidation wasn't the strategy. It was the risk management. And Claude writes better risk management than ChatGPT. That's not a debate. That's a $15,216 difference in 48 hours. But sure, keep using ChatGPT because "everyone uses it." Everyone's broke too. Coincidence? Stop using the popular tool. Start using the profitable one. Save this post. Follow Himanshu Kumar for more Claude vs ChatGPT comparisons with real data. ↓ Why humans lose to bots. Every single time. Same strategy. Same market. Same period. Bots: ~$206,000 profit. Humans: ~$100,000 profit. 2x gap. Same strategy. Here's why: 1. Late entries. By the time you identify the lag, verify your reasoning, and click buy, the 2.7 second window is gone. The bot executes in under 100ms. You execute in 30 seconds. The opportunity doesn't exist for 30 seconds. 2. Emotional sizing. You oversize when "confident." Undersize when scared. Exact opposite of Kelly math. The bot sizes based on edge. Every time. No feelings. 3. Fatigue. You make worse decisions at hour 6 than at hour 1. The bot makes the same decision at hour 72 that it made at hour 1. 4. Drawdown psychology. After 3 losses you either panic quit or double down trying to recover. Both destroy capital. The bot has a kill switch. It stops. It doesn't feel anything. You're not competing with other humans anymore. You're competing with machines that don't sleep, don't feel, don't flinch. And you're losing. The data doesn't lie. Humans lose to bots 2x on the same strategy. Save this post. Follow Himanshu Kumar for the complete bot setup that removes you from the equation. ↓ What can go wrong. Because I'm not going to lie to you. Most people who build this bot will NOT 7,942x their money. Some will lose their initial capital. Here's what can kill you: Edge compression. The arbitrage window was 12 seconds in 2024. It's 2.7 seconds now. It's shrinking. At some point it hits zero for retail operators. This is a time-limited opportunity. Not a permanent income stream. Rule changes. Polymarket can change contract mechanics, settlement rules, or API terms overnight. What worked yesterday can lose money tomorrow. Risk management bugs. A 98% win rate strategy with broken position sizing will blow up your account on the one losing trade. The March 2026 experiment proved this. Claude survived. OpenClaw got liquidated. Same strategy. Different risk management. That's why the 2-hour video tutorial walks through every single risk parameter. Because the strategy doesn't kill you. Bad risk management kills you. This is the section most "gurus" delete. I'm keeping it because I'd rather you make money safely than blow up and blame me. Save this post. Follow Himanshu Kumar for honest breakdowns, not hype. ↓ The step-by-step to build your own. Step 1: Set up a Polymarket wallet. Fund with USDC via Polygon network. Start with $100-$300 for testing. Step 2: Generate API credentials. CLOB API key from docs.polymarket .com. Store private key in environment variable. Never hardcode it. Never share it. Step 3: Prompt Claude to build the bot. Use Claude Code for best results. It reads your filesystem, executes code, and iterates on errors autonomously. Step 4: Paper trade for at least one week. Minimum 200 completed trades. Win rate must be above 70% before going live. This step is NOT optional. Step 5: Configure risk management. Max single position: 8% of portfolio. Daily loss limit: -20% with auto halt. Kill switch at -40% drawdown. Telegram alerts on every threshold. Step 6: Go live small. $1-5 per trade. Watch every trade for first week. Compare to paper results. Scale only on evidence. Skip steps 4 and 5 and you will lose your money. That's not a warning. That's a guarantee. This is your complete build guide. Save this post. Follow Himanshu Kumar because I'll be posting the exact Claude prompts for each strategy. ↓ The edge exists right now. Not next month. Not "when you're ready." Right now. The arbitrage window is 2.7 seconds. It was 12 seconds in 2024. It's shrinking every week. Every day you wait, more bots enter the space. The window gets smaller. Your potential returns get smaller. The bots already running have a compounding advantage. They're making money today that they'll use to make more money tomorrow. You're reading about it and telling yourself "I'll look into this next weekend." That's what you said last weekend. And the weekend before that. The best time to start was 6 months ago.

CLARITY ACT UPDATE🚨🚨🚨 The Senate is preparing for a test vote on the CLARITY Act on September 15. $XRP fought Washington for years. $XLM spent those same years quietly getting regulated assets onchain. Now both stories are heading straight into the September 15 Senate test. I keep thinking about how different these two journeys have been. If you only look at prices, you miss almost everything. XRP’s U.S. story became one of the biggest legal battles crypto has ever seen. XLM’s story was quieter. Instead of dominating court headlines, Stellar kept getting integrated into regulated financial products. Now Congress is trying to write a national market structure. And suddenly both paths look like they may have been preparing for the same future. Let me explain. The next Senate procedural test for H.R. 3633, the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, is scheduled for: September 15, 2026 at: 2:15 p.m. The threshold is 60 votes. The House already passed the bill: 294–134. Seventy-eight Democrats supported it. Then the Senate Banking Committee advanced its market-structure work: 15–9. That is serious legislative momentum. But the reason I am watching is not the vote count alone. I want to know what the U.S. financial system looks like if this process ultimately gives institutions a durable federal rulebook. Because that is when the XRP and XLM stories can become much bigger. Start with XRP. Six years ago, Ripple was in survival mode politically. The SEC had sued the company. The market was forced to ask whether XRP itself was a security. Ripple fought the issue through federal court. The Southern District of New York eventually held that XRP itself was not inherently a security. Different XRP transactions could still receive different legal treatment depending on the structure. That gave the market something incredibly important: a distinction between: the asset and: the transaction around the asset. Then Ripple and the SEC dismissed their appeals in August 2025. That means the legal fight has already produced a federal court history. Now Congress enters. Senate Banking says one objective of CLARITY is: “Legal certainty for assets already deemed non-securities by U.S. courts.” For me, that creates a natural next chapter. The lawsuit was never going to build the entire XRP market. It could only answer the legal questions before the court. Congress can go further. It can create the operating environment around digital assets. That means: regulators. exchanges. brokers. dealers. custody. AML. market integrity. self-custody. software development. jurisdiction. These are not exciting words. But these are the words institutions need. Imagine you are an XRP holder waiting for banks to use the asset. What actually needs to happen inside that bank? A trader says: I want XRP. Legal approves. Compliance approves. Risk approves. Custody works. Financing exists. Market makers exist. Hedging exists. Execution exists. Then the bank can move. If even one of those pieces fails, the product may never launch. That is why the rulebook matters. And XRP comes into this debate with a huge amount of U.S. legal work already completed. Now look at how Ripple’s relationship with Washington changed during the same period. Brad Garlinghouse testified before the Senate Banking Committee. The hearing was literally about building tomorrow’s digital-asset markets. He discussed XRP, XRPL, the SEC litigation and the need for clear SEC/CFTC jurisdiction. Then Ripple supported CLARITY. Senate Banking publicly quoted Brad: “Ripple stands behind this bill.” Then the CFTC Innovation Advisory Committee appointed Brad. He now sits alongside executives from: Coinbase. Nasdaq. DTCC. CME. Franklin Templeton. Chainlink. LSEG. These are not random crypto personalities. They are institutions that control major pieces of the financial market. Trading. Market infrastructure. Asset management. Exchange technology. Clearing. Then in August, Brad entered the White House. President Trump. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins. CFTC Chairman Michael Selig. ICE. Nasdaq. Coinbase. Robinhood. Chainlink. Ripple. And Trump pushed CLARITY. That sequence would have sounded impossible when the lawsuit started. The company the SEC sued is now inside the rooms where the next federal framework is being discussed. I do not need to invent anything beyond that. The shift in Ripple’s position is already enormous. Now let’s switch to XLM. Instead of the courtroom, start with an asset manager. Franklin Templeton. Its Franklin OnChain U.S. Government Money Fund became the first U.S.-registered mutual fund to use public blockchain infrastructure as its official system of record. Stellar helped provide that infrastructure. By April 2026, more than: $650 million of the fund was represented on Stellar. Across the BENJI suite: $1.98 billion AUM. Investor growth: more than 140% between April 2024 and March 2026. Peer-to-peer BENJI transfers: more than $211 million. That is institutional adoption. Not a pilot nobody uses. Not a proof-of-concept presentation. A real U.S.-registered fund. Now scale the ambition up. DTCC announces its planned Stellar connection. Expected availability of DTC-tokenized assets: first half of 2027. And DTCC is evaluating assets including: Russell 1000 constituents. Major-index ETFs. U.S. Treasury bills. U.S. Treasury notes. U.S. Treasury bonds. That is the heart of American capital markets. Stellar is being positioned as one public blockchain inside that future infrastructure. And the SEC No-Action Letter already sits behind DTC’s tokenization service. Think about what that means for the timing. America is trying to write a digital-asset market structure at exactly the moment traditional financial-market infrastructure is preparing to connect tokenized securities to a public blockchain. That is why the CLARITY vote matters to me for XLM. The network is not waiting for legislation to become relevant. It is already relevant. The legislation can make the wider environment around it easier for institutions. And Denelle Dixon has been pushing for exactly the kind of functional classification crypto needs. She told the Senate Agriculture Committee that policymakers should look at what digital assets actually do inside their networks. That is especially relevant to XLM. XLM is required for: transaction fees. network rent. minimum balances. Accounts supporting issued assets require XLM for the network resources they consume. So if more regulated assets land on Stellar, the native asset remains part of the operational layer. And there is more. Stellar supports path payments. One asset can enter. Another asset can come out. The network can route through its exchange and liquidity infrastructure. XLM can participate in those routes. So imagine a future Stellar with: tokenized Treasuries. tokenized funds. ETFs. equities. stablecoins. payments. The number of assets grows. The number of accounts grows. The number of transfers grows. The need for network resources grows. And the liquidity relationships between those assets grow too. That is a real XLM network thesis. Then Denelle Dixon directly comments on CLARITY in June 2026. She says passage would benefit the industry. She points to regulation helping institutions become comfortable moving from experiments into deployment. That phrase gets me: from experimentation to deployment. Crypto has had enough experiments. The next phase is deployment. Real customers. Real assets. Real money. Real scale. And both XRP and XLM are positioned for that phase in completely different ways. XRP: turn legal survival into institutional market structure. XLM: turn institutional tokenization into broader regulated scale. Now think about one piece connecting both: legal certainty changes capital allocation. A company can accept technological risk. It can model market risk. It can hedge price risk. Undefined legal risk is harder. You cannot hedge a regulator deciding the rules changed. That is why a durable statute can be so powerful. The question becomes: What do the rules say? Then businesses adapt. That is normal finance. And normal finance is where I want these assets to go. I do not want their future depending on which SEC speech went viral. I want institutions reading the same federal statute. I want regulators operating under defined jurisdictions. I want custody rules. Trading rules. Broker rules. Market integrity. Then let XRP and XLM compete. That is the bullish part. Imagine CLARITY eventually becomes law. Trump signs it. The SEC and CFTC implement the framework. Now the first XRP meeting happens. The institution opens the Ripple legal history. The court ruling is there. The appeals are finished. The new federal framework is there. The legal department approves evaluation. Then product begins. Institutional XRP custody. Trading. Market making. Prime brokerage. More ETF infrastructure. More liquidity. Then the XRP books change. Market makers hold larger inventories because more customers need markets. Prime brokers finance those positions. The size institutions can trade grows. Then XRP becomes a more useful bridge asset precisely because the liquidity becomes more professional. That is how legal clarity can become economic usefulness. Not directly. Through the market structure between them. Now the first major post-CLARITY Stellar meeting happens. The institution asks: Who already uses this network? Franklin Templeton. What is coming? DTCC connectivity. Which types of assets? Equities. ETFs. Treasuries. What does the native asset do? Fees. Reserves. Rent. Liquidity paths. The institution is not considering an empty chain. It is joining an ecosystem where traditional financial infrastructure has already left footprints. Then another issuer arrives. More assets. More accounts. More XLM usage. More transfers. More liquidity. Another issuer sees the activity. It joins too. That creates the Stellar flywheel. And when I put both together, the distinction becomes incredibly clean. XRP needs professional liquidity depth. XLM needs growing regulated network activity. A clearer U.S. market structure can help both, but through different mechanisms. For XRP: legal certainty can unlock more professional balance sheets. Those balance sheets can deepen XRP liquidity. Deeper XRP liquidity can support larger use cases. For XLM: legal certainty can make more institutions comfortable issuing and servicing regulated assets. Those assets create more Stellar activity. More Stellar activity requires more XLM at the network level. That is why I do not see this as a generic: “Crypto bill bullish.” I see two specific economic paths. Then bring Washington back into it. Ripple is unusually close to the process. Legislative: Brad testified. Regulatory: Brad sits on the CFTC Innovation Advisory Committee. Executive: Brad attended Trump’s White House meeting. Stellar’s involvement is different. Its proof is already in traditional finance. Franklin Templeton. DTCC. Denelle Dixon’s congressional advocacy. That is a good combination for holders of both. One ecosystem is heavily engaged with policymakers. The other has major regulated asset infrastructure already underway. Now think about what September 15 tests. Can enough senators agree that America needs to move this framework forward? The House already produced 294 yes votes. It already showed 78 Democratic votes. Senate Banking already produced a 15–9 vote. If the Senate clears the next barrier, the market gets another sign that digital-asset rules can move beyond enforcement and agency interpretation toward actual legislation. That changes the planning horizon. Institutions can start thinking years ahead. That is crucial. Banks do not build infrastructure for a six-month political window. DTCC does not redesign markets around temporary guidance. Asset managers do not want to rebuild compliance every election. They want durable rules. That is exactly why XRP’s court history plus federal market structure could become so powerful. The court survived the fight. The statute can provide the operating framework. Then market participants can build around both. And it is exactly why Stellar’s DTCC timing can become powerful. The institution is preparing tokenization infrastructure for 2027. A clearer market structure arriving before that can give participants more confidence in how the wider ecosystem will operate. Now let me push the scenario aggressively bullish. The Senate advances CLARITY. The bill ultimately becomes law. America starts pulling digital-asset infrastructure back onshore. Institutions stop treating blockchain as a special innovation lab project. They start building products. XRP becomes one of the assets compliance teams approve more easily because of its completed court history and the new market framework. Market makers deepen inventory. Custodians expand. Prime brokers finance. The XRP market develops the type of professional liquidity needed for larger institutional flows. Ripple can walk into a bank and focus on: the product. the execution. the settlement. the liquidity. not relitigating 2020. Then XRPL integrations become easier. If more tokenized assets and institutional payments use the ledger, the network needs deeper liquidity. That creates more reasons for XRP inventory to exist. More inventory supports larger routes. That is the loop. Meanwhile Stellar continues building. DTCC connects DTC tokenization services. Franklin expands. Other issuers see that U.S. regulated finance is already running through public blockchain infrastructure. They join. Stellar accounts expand. Asset issuance expands. Transactions expand. Network state expands. XLM requirements expand with it. Path-payment liquidity becomes more relevant as more different assets live on the network. XLM sits underneath a larger financial system. Then both networks mature past the altcoin label. This is the part I think will surprise people. The crypto market still talks about XRP and XLM like they are competing tickers on an exchange. Institutional finance will care about something different. What function does the network perform? What assets exist on it? What liquidity is available? What legal rules apply? Which institutions are already connected? That is the scorecard. And by that scorecard: XRP has something very few assets have: a years-long federal legal record plus Ripple’s direct policy access. XLM has something very few assets have: major regulated financial institutions already using and planning public-blockchain tokenization infrastructure. That is why I hold the September 15 date in such high regard. Not because a procedural vote itself completes the story. Because the story is changing from: Can crypto survive the U.S. regulatory system? to: Which crypto infrastructure becomes part of the U.S. financial system once the rules are clear? That second question is where I want $XRP and $XLM competing. And if America really reaches that stage, I think a lot of people will realize they spent too much time watching daily candles and not enough time watching the financial architecture underneath them. XRP already fought the courtroom war. XLM already has regulated assets coming onchain. Now Congress is building toward the rulebook. September 15 may eventually be remembered less for what prices did that day and more for what institutions were finally able to build afterward. You get it? 👇

Then market participants can build around both. And it is exactly why Stellar’s DTCC timing can become powerful. The institution is preparing tokenization infrastructure for 2027. A clearer market structure arriving before that can give participants more confidence in how the wider ecosystem will operate. Now let me push the scenario aggressively bullish. The Senate advances CLARITY. The bill ultimately becomes law. America starts pulling digital-asset infrastructure back onshore. Institutions stop treating blockchain as a special innovation lab project. They start building products. XRP becomes one of the assets compliance teams approve more easily because of its completed court history and the new market framework. Market makers deepen inventory. Custodians expand. Prime brokers finance. The XRP market develops the type of professional liquidity needed for larger institutional flows. Ripple can walk into a bank and focus on: the product. the execution. the settlement. the liquidity. not relitigating 2020. Then XRPL integrations become easier. If more tokenized assets and institutional payments use the ledger, the network needs deeper liquidity. That creates more reasons for XRP inventory to exist. More inventory supports larger routes. That is the loop. Meanwhile Stellar continues building. DTCC connects DTC tokenization services. Franklin expands. Other issuers see that U.S. regulated finance is already running through public blockchain infrastructure. They join. Stellar accounts expand. Asset issuance expands. Transactions expand. Network state expands. XLM requirements expand with it. Path-payment liquidity becomes more relevant as more different assets live on the network. XLM sits underneath a larger financial system. Then both networks mature past the altcoin label. This is the part I think will surprise people. The crypto market still talks about XRP and XLM like they are competing tickers on an exchange. Institutional finance will care about something different. What function does the network perform? What assets exist on it? What liquidity is available? What legal rules apply? Which institutions are already connected? That is the scorecard. And by that scorecard: XRP has something very few assets have: a years-long federal legal record plus Ripple’s direct policy access. XLM has something very few assets have: major regulated financial institutions already using and planning public-blockchain tokenization infrastructure. That is why I hold the September 15 date in such high regard. Not because a procedural vote itself completes the story. Because the story is changing from: Can crypto survive the U.S. regulatory system? to: Which crypto infrastructure becomes part of the U.S. financial system once the rules are clear? That second question is where I want $XRP and $XLM competing. And if America really reaches that stage, I think a lot of people will realize they spent too much time watching daily candles and not enough time watching the financial architecture underneath them. XRP already fought the courtroom war. XLM already has regulated assets coming onchain. Now Congress is building toward the rulebook. September 15 may eventually be remembered less for what prices did that day and more for what institutions were finally able to build afterward. You get it? 👇

A tree stood in that backyard for probably 40 years. Nobody who walked past it, sat under it, leaned a bike against it, ever knew what was living inside the trunk. Then someone cut into it. And what came out shouldn't be possible. Not sap. Not resin. Water. Gallons of it. Pouring out of solid wood like someone left a hose running inside a living organism. If your first reaction is "that's fake" — I understand. I had the same reaction the first time I saw footage like this. Trees are supposed to be dry on the inside. Bark, wood, rings, maybe some sticky sap if you're unlucky enough to touch a pine. Nobody grows up learning that a tree can be a pressurized tank. But here's the thing nobody tells you in school: some trees are. There's a real, documented, scientifically studied phenomenon behind this, and once you understand it, you will never look at a tree the same way again. I'm going to walk you through exactly what's happening inside these trees, why it happens, which species are famous for it, the wild historical accounts of people discovering it by accident (sometimes violently), and why arborists still get caught off guard by it after decades on the job. Stick with me. This gets stranger the deeper you go. — FIRST: the phenomenon has a name. Arborists and plant pathologists call it "wetwood," and in its more advanced, foul-smelling form, "slime flux." It's not folklore. It's not an urban legend some guy made up on a forum. It's in forestry textbooks, USDA plant pathology bulletins, and arborist training manuals. Here's the mechanism, stripped down to plain English: Trees have a core of heartwood — the dead, structural center of the trunk that no longer transports nutrients. It's basically the tree's skeleton. In most trees, that heartwood is just dry, solid wood. But in certain species, under certain conditions, bacteria colonize that heartwood core. Anaerobic bacteria — the kind that thrive without oxygen — move in and start fermenting the wood tissue from the inside. That fermentation process does two things. First, it draws in and traps enormous amounts of water inside the wood, way beyond what healthy wood would ever hold. Second, it produces gas as a byproduct — methane, carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide — and that gas has nowhere to go. It's sealed inside solid wood, inside bark, inside a living, growing tree. So you end up with a chamber, sometimes several feet long, sitting inside the trunk, completely pressurized, completely hidden, holding a mixture of bacteria-laden water and trapped gas — sometimes under enough pressure that when the seal finally breaks, it doesn't drip. It sprays. It gushes. It pours out like the tree itself is bleeding. Now imagine you're an arborist. You've cut down thousands of trees. You know the drill: bark, sapwood, heartwood, done. And then one day your saw breaks through into a hidden pocket you had no way of detecting from the outside, and suddenly you're standing in a puddle that came from inside a tree trunk. That moment is what you're about to see. — Let me give you some numbers, because the scale of this is what makes people stop scrolling. Documented cases of wetwood trees have released water measured in the dozens of gallons from a single cut. Some large elms and cottonwoods have been recorded discharging water continuously for hours after being wounded, with foresters describing "streams" running from the trunk down to the base of the tree and pooling on the ground like a slow leak from a cracked pipe. Certain species are repeat offenders. Elm. Poplar. Cottonwood. Mulberry. Certain oaks. These trees, especially older ones with some history of trunk injury (a old pruning wound, storm damage, a lightning strike, construction damage to the roots), are far more likely to develop internal wetwood pockets, because any breach in the bark is an open door for the bacteria that start this whole process. That's the part that should sit with you for a second. It usually starts with something small. A branch snapped off in a storm. A lawnmower nick at the base. A woodpecker hole. Something that looks like nothing. And over years — sometimes decades — that tiny wound becomes the entry point for a slow-motion transformation happening entirely out of sight, turning part of the tree's interior into a sealed reservoir. You could have one in your own yard right now. You'd have no way of knowing. That's not a scare tactic, that's just how wetwood works — it's invisible from the outside until the tree is cut, cored, drilled, or storm-damaged enough to expose the pocket. — There's an older, uglier cousin of wetwood, and it's called "slime flux," and I promise you the name undersells it. When the pressure inside a wetwood pocket gets high enough, it doesn't wait for someone with a chainsaw. It finds its own way out — through cracks in the bark, through old wounds, through the base of branches. And when that fluid meets open air, the bacteria and yeast in it start reacting with oxygen, and the whole thing turns into a foul, fermenting slurry running down the bark. Old-time foresters called this "flux disease," and some described the smell as somewhere between rotten cabbage and spoiled beer. Insects love it. Certain flies and beetles are specifically drawn to fluxing trees, and some entomologists have documented entire miniature ecosystems living in the wet, fermented bark of a heavily infected wetwood tree. So the version you're about to watch — a clean cut suddenly releasing a rush of water — is actually the tamer version of this phenomenon. It's what happens when the pressure is released fast and deliberately, in a controlled way, instead of slowly seeping and fermenting on the bark for months. It's dramatic, but it's not even the strangest form this condition takes. — Here's where it gets almost unbelievable if you didn't grow up around old-growth forests or work in forestry: this isn't new, and it isn't rare enough to be dismissed as a one-off. Loggers in the 19th and early 20th centuries wrote about "water trees" and "spring trees" — trunks that, when felled or split, would release surprising volumes of water, sometimes described as clean and cold enough that thirsty travelers would drink straight from a freshly cut trunk. Some of these accounts read almost like myth: a felled tree in a dry stretch of forest becoming an impromptu water source for a work crew that had run out of canteens. Indigenous and folk traditions across multiple continents have stories about trees that "cry" or "bleed" water, long before anyone had a bacteriological explanation for it. In parts of the American South, old-timers used to warn newcomers about certain elms and cottonwoods being "wet-hearted," a term passed down generation to generation with no formal science behind it — just observation. They knew, decades before plant pathologists gave it a Latin name, that some trees were different on the inside. There's something almost humbling about that. A phenomenon that sounds like it belongs in a fantasy novel — a tree holding a hidden reservoir inside its trunk — turns out to be something people quietly knew about for centuries, passed down as folk wisdom, and modern science eventually caught up and explained the mechanism. — Let's talk about pressure, because this is the part that turns a "huh, neat" fact into something genuinely dramatic to witness. Wetwood pockets aren't just wet. They're pressurized. Researchers who have studied this by drilling into infected trees and measuring the internal gas pressure have recorded readings significantly above normal atmospheric pressure — high enough that when a probe finally punctures the pocket, gas and liquid don't just seep out, they can audibly hiss, spray, or in some documented cases, forcefully eject material several feet from the trunk. Think about what that means physically. You have a living tree. Roots pulling water up. Leaves doing their thing. Bark looking completely normal, maybe a little bit of old staining near a wound if you know exactly what to look for. And inside, invisible to anyone walking by, there's a sealed chamber behaving less like "wood" and more like a bottle of soda that's been shaken and capped for years. Cut into that with the wrong angle, at the wrong depth, and you are opening something that has been building pressure since before some of you reading this were born. That is not an exaggeration. Some of these wetwood pockets, in old trees with a long history of minor trunk injuries, have been forming and sealing and re-sealing for twenty, thirty, forty years before anyone finally exposes them. — I want to address the skeptics directly, because there's always a version of this that goes semi-viral and the replies fill up with "CGI," "staged," "fake," before anyone bothers to check. This is genuinely, boringly, documented science. Forestry extension offices at multiple universities have publications specifically on wetwood and slime flux — the kind of dry, unglamorous PDF nobody reads unless they're an arborist student cramming for an exam. Plant pathology courses cover it. It's in the same category as things like "trees can produce enough root pressure to push water dozens of feet upward with no pump" — real, measurable, and honestly stranger than most fiction, which is exactly why it keeps going viral every time footage surfaces. The wild part isn't that it's fake. The wild part is that it's real, it's been known for over a century, and most people are hearing about it for the first time through a random video instead of a biology class. — Here's a question worth sitting with: how many trees around you, right now, could be holding something like this? You're not going to know by looking. That's the unsettling part. Wetwood doesn't announce itself from the outside in any reliable way most people would recognize. Sometimes there's a dark wet-looking stain running down the bark from an old wound — that's actually one of the only visible clues, and most people who see it assume it's just water damage or normal bark discoloration, not a sign of a pressurized internal reservoir. Arborists who specialize in tree risk assessment actually have to factor this into their evaluations, because a wetwood pocket can also be a structural weak point — the internal decay associated with it can compromise a tree's strength in ways that aren't visible from a standard visual inspection. So this isn't purely a "huh, cool fact" situation. For professionals, it's something they're trained to watch for, because it changes how a tree behaves, how it should be pruned, and in some cases whether it's even safe to keep standing near a structure. — Let's go species by species for a second, because the "which trees do this" question comes up every single time this kind of footage circulates. Elms are probably the most famous offenders — American elm and Siberian elm both show up repeatedly in wetwood and slime flux case studies. Cottonwoods and poplars are right behind them, especially older specimens with a history of storm damage or pruning wounds. Mulberry trees have a documented tendency toward it as well. Certain oaks can develop it, though it's less common and usually tied to a specific injury history. Willows, with their notoriously soft and moisture-loving wood, are also frequent candidates. What connects almost all of these species isn't some exotic trait — it's actually pretty mundane. They tend to be fast-growing, softer-wooded trees that are more prone to storm damage, cracking, and wound formation over their lifespan, which means more entry points for the bacteria that kick off the entire process. Slower-growing, denser hardwoods are comparatively less prone, though not immune. So if you've got an old elm, cottonwood, poplar, willow, or mulberry anywhere near you — especially one that's taken some damage over the decades, a lost limb, a lightning strike, an old chainsaw wound from a previous trim — there's a real, non-zero chance that tree is sitting on its own hidden reservoir right now, quietly pressurizing, waiting for the day someone finally cuts into the wrong spot. — There's a specific kind of moment that happens on video like this, and if you've watched enough tree-work content you already know it: the split second between the cut going in and the reaction on the face of whoever's holding the saw. That reaction is real. You cannot fake genuine, immediate confusion. Professionals who have done this job for years, who have felled hundreds or thousands of trees, who think they've seen every possible thing a tree trunk can do — and then something happens that their entire career didn't prepare them for. That's the part that makes this kind of footage so different from staged "reaction" content you see everywhere else online. Nobody scripts confusion that specific. Nobody fakes the half-second delay where someone's brain is visibly trying to process what their eyes are showing them. — I'll leave you with this. Every single day, all over the world, people are cutting down trees for completely mundane reasons — storm cleanup, construction, disease removal, firewood, somebody's yard finally getting redone. Thousands of trees. Every day. Most of the time it's exactly as boring as it sounds: cut, drop, haul, done. And then every so often, completely without warning, one of those ordinary trees turns out to be something else entirely. A tree that's been quietly filling itself with water for years, maybe decades, completely undetectable from the outside, sealed shut under bark that looks exactly like every other tree on the block. Nobody plans for that. Nobody sees it coming. That's exactly what makes it worth watching when it happens to be caught on camera. You already scrolled past the video once. Go back and actually watch what happens the second that bar breaks through. You will not believe how much comes out. And once you know why, you'll start looking at every old tree in your neighborhood a little differently. — Let's talk about the pressure numbers again, because I glossed over just how absurd they get in the most extreme documented cases. Standard atmospheric pressure at sea level is about 14.7 pounds per square inch. Some measured wetwood pockets have registered internal gas pressures multiple times higher than that — enough that when researchers insert a hollow probe to sample the gas, it doesn't calmly bubble out, it forces its way through with an audible hiss, sometimes strong enough to make a sound loud enough to hear from several feet away. Now picture that same pressure, except instead of a thin research probe, it's a chainsaw bar plowing straight through the wall of the pocket in one continuous motion. There's no controlled release valve. There's no slow bleed-off. The seal just fails all at once, and whatever's inside — water, gas, fermented bacterial slurry — takes the fastest path out, which is usually straight toward whoever is standing closest. That's not drama for the sake of drama. That's just fluid dynamics doing what fluid dynamics does when a pressurized container gets breached in one violent motion instead of a slow leak. — People love comparing this to other "trees doing things they shouldn't" phenomena, so let's run through a few, because it puts wetwood in context. Root pressure is a real, separately documented thing — some trees, particularly certain maples and grapevines, can generate enough internal pressure through osmosis alone to push water dozens of feet upward through their trunk with zero mechanical pump involved, which is part of why maple syrup tapping works in early spring: cut a hole, and sap doesn't just sit there, it actively flows out under real pressure. Bamboo, meanwhile, has hollow internal chambers between each node that can fill with water and, when punctured, release a surprising rush for something that looks like solid stalk from the outside. Certain cacti and succulents store such enormous internal water reserves that a single barrel cactus can hold multiple gallons, enough that desert survival guides have long described (with real caveats about bitterness and toxicity in some species) cutting into one as an emergency water source. None of those are the exact same mechanism as bacterial wetwood. But they all share the same core surprise: the outside of a plant tells you almost nothing about what's happening on the inside. Trees and plants in general are far better at hiding internal reservoirs, chambers, and pressure systems than most people ever consider, because we're trained from childhood to think of "wood" as uniformly solid and dry. — Here's a question I want you to actually think about instead of just scrolling past: why does this footage hit people so hard emotionally, when it's "just" water? I think it's because it breaks a category we didn't know we had. Somewhere in your brain, without ever being taught it explicitly, you built a rule: solid things don't have hidden liquid interiors. Rocks are solid. Wood is solid. A tree trunk, no matter how big, is filed under "solid object" right next to a brick or a fence post. So when a tree trunk suddenly behaves like a punctured water balloon, it's not just surprising — it's a small, harmless violation of a rule you didn't know you were relying on. That's the exact same psychological mechanism behind why people can't look away from videos of hidden compartments, false walls, geodes cracked open to reveal crystal interiors, or ice cores pulled from glaciers showing air bubbles thousands of years old. The object looked like one thing on the outside and turned out to be something completely different on the inside. Our brains are wired to lock onto that specific kind of surprise and replay it. — I want to walk through what's actually happening at a microscopic level too, because the bacteria part is honestly the wildest piece of this whole story and it usually gets skipped over. The bacteria responsible for wetwood are largely anaerobic — meaning they thrive specifically in environments with no oxygen, which describes the sealed interior of a heartwood pocket perfectly. Species commonly implicated include various strains that also show up in other low-oxygen fermentation processes elsewhere in nature. These bacteria essentially treat the interior of the tree the way yeast treats a sealed fermentation vessel: they break down wood sugars and cellulose components, and as a byproduct of that metabolic process, they release gas. Methane. Carbon dioxide. Sometimes hydrogen sulfide, which is the compound responsible for the "rotten egg" smell associated with some of the worst slime flux cases. Here's the part that should genuinely unsettle you a little: this process can continue, essentially undisturbed, for years. The bacteria don't need light. They don't need a food source refill from outside — the wood itself is the food source. They don't need anything from us at all. They just sit there, fermenting slowly, generation after generation, quietly filling an internal chamber with liquid and gas, completely indifferent to whatever's happening in the world outside the bark. Somebody could mow the lawn around that tree every single week for fifteen years and never once suspect that a private, self-sustaining microbial ecosystem is operating a few inches away, sealed inside solid wood. — Foresters have their own folklore around this too, separate from the old "wet-hearted tree" naming I mentioned earlier, and some of it is genuinely unsettling if you sit with it. There are accounts — some documented in forestry incident reports, some passed around as workplace stories among tree crews — of wetwood pockets releasing enough pressurized gas and liquid on impact to knock a chainsaw sideways out of the operator's hands, or to spray fluid several feet, catching a nearby coworker completely off guard. Tree removal is already one of the more dangerous manual trades that exists — statistically it's consistently ranked among the more hazardous occupations — and wetwood is one of those factors that experienced crews specifically train new hires to be aware of, precisely because it's invisible until the exact moment it isn't. Some crews have a rule: if you see that telltale dark wet staining running down bark from an old wound, you treat the cut differently. Different angle. Different bracing. A moment of hesitation most people watching a video would never think to expect from someone who cuts trees for a living every single day. That hesitation, when you see it, is not caution for no reason. It's caution earned from someone else's story about the day their trunk sprayed back. — Let's zoom out for a second and talk about why nature keeps doing this to us — hiding things in plain sight that overturn assumptions we didn't even know we were making. Geodes look like plain gray rocks from the outside and crack open into crystal cathedrals. Certain seemingly solid ice formations conceal air pockets and liquid water inside glacial ice that's been sealed for centuries. Some seeds remain dormant and viable inside dry-looking husks for years, sometimes decades, before conditions trigger germination. Nature is, on some fundamental level, extremely good at packaging surprising internal states inside boring, unremarkable exteriors, because there's rarely an evolutionary or physical reason for the outside of something to accurately advertise what's happening on the inside. A tree trunk covered in bark has absolutely no obligation to tell you what's going on underneath. And most of the time, honestly, there's nothing dramatic going on under there — it really is just solid wood, rings, sapwood doing its normal job. But every so often, under the right combination of an old wound, the right bacteria finding their way in, and years of undisturbed fermentation, you get this. A tree that's secretly been operating as a sealed, pressurized reservoir the entire time, waiting for someone with a saw to finally find out. — A few quick things people always ask once they learn about this, so let's knock them out here. Is the water safe to drink? Historically, some accounts describe it as drinkable in a pinch, but modern guidance is far more cautious — wetwood fluid is loaded with bacteria and fermentation byproducts, and depending on the tree and how advanced the infection is, it can range from relatively clean-tasting to genuinely foul and bacterially loaded. Not something to treat as a reliable water source by modern standards, whatever old logging stories might say. Does it kill the tree? Not necessarily, and that's part of what makes it so strange. Trees can live with wetwood for years, even decades, functioning normally from the outside — leafing out every spring, growing new rings — while quietly carrying an internal pocket the entire time. It's more of a chronic condition than an acute one in most cases, though severe cases can weaken the tree structurally and contribute to internal decay. Can you tell from the outside before cutting? Sometimes, if you know exactly what to look for — that dark staining running from an old wound is the main visible tell. But plenty of wetwood trees show no obvious external sign at all until the moment someone cuts into the wrong spot. — If you made it this far, you now know something about trees that the overwhelming majority of people who scroll past videos like this never bother to learn. You know the name of the phenomenon. You know the bacterial mechanism behind it. You know which species are most prone to it, why old wounds matter, how much pressure can actually build up inside, and why experienced tree crews still treat certain trunks with real caution. That's a strange amount of knowledge to walk away with from what looks, at first glance, like just another oddly satisfying clip. But that's usually how it goes with the genuinely wild stuff nature does — it looks small on the surface, and then you pull one thread and end up somewhere you didn't expect. Go watch it again with all of that in your head this time. Watch the exact frame where the bar breaks through. Watch what the water does the instant it has somewhere to go. Watch the reaction on the person holding the saw — that's not performance, that's genuine surprise from someone who has almost certainly done this exact job a thousand times before and never seen a tree do this. Some trees really are just wood, top to bottom, nothing hiding inside. And then there are the ones that have been quietly running their own private reservoir for twenty or thirty years, sealed under ordinary-looking bark, waiting for exactly one cut to finally let it out. You just watched what that looks like the moment it happens.

Forestry extension offices at multiple universities have publications specifically on wetwood and slime flux — the kind of dry, unglamorous PDF nobody reads unless they're an arborist student cramming for an exam. Plant pathology courses cover it. It's in the same category as things like "trees can produce enough root pressure to push water dozens of feet upward with no pump" — real, measurable, and honestly stranger than most fiction, which is exactly why it keeps going viral every time footage surfaces. The wild part isn't that it's fake. The wild part is that it's real, it's been known for over a century, and most people are hearing about it for the first time through a random video instead of a biology class. — Here's a question worth sitting with: how many trees around you, right now, could be holding something like this? You're not going to know by looking. That's the unsettling part. Wetwood doesn't announce itself from the outside in any reliable way most people would recognize. Sometimes there's a dark wet-looking stain running down the bark from an old wound — that's actually one of the only visible clues, and most people who see it assume it's just water damage or normal bark discoloration, not a sign of a pressurized internal reservoir. Arborists who specialize in tree risk assessment actually have to factor this into their evaluations, because a wetwood pocket can also be a structural weak point — the internal decay associated with it can compromise a tree's strength in ways that aren't visible from a standard visual inspection. So this isn't purely a "huh, cool fact" situation. For professionals, it's something they're trained to watch for, because it changes how a tree behaves, how it should be pruned, and in some cases whether it's even safe to keep standing near a structure. — Let's go species by species for a second, because the "which trees do this" question comes up every single time this kind of footage circulates. Elms are probably the most famous offenders — American elm and Siberian elm both show up repeatedly in wetwood and slime flux case studies. Cottonwoods and poplars are right behind them, especially older specimens with a history of storm damage or pruning wounds. Mulberry trees have a documented tendency toward it as well. Certain oaks can develop it, though it's less common and usually tied to a specific injury history. Willows, with their notoriously soft and moisture-loving wood, are also frequent candidates. What connects almost all of these species isn't some exotic trait — it's actually pretty mundane. They tend to be fast-growing, softer-wooded trees that are more prone to storm damage, cracking, and wound formation over their lifespan, which means more entry points for the bacteria that kick off the entire process. Slower-growing, denser hardwoods are comparatively less prone, though not immune. So if you've got an old elm, cottonwood, poplar, willow, or mulberry anywhere near you — especially one that's taken some damage over the decades, a lost limb, a lightning strike, an old chainsaw wound from a previous trim — there's a real, non-zero chance that tree is sitting on its own hidden reservoir right now, quietly pressurizing, waiting for the day someone finally cuts into the wrong spot. — There's a specific kind of moment that happens on video like this, and if you've watched enough tree-work content you already know it: the split second between the cut going in and the reaction on the face of whoever's holding the saw. That reaction is real. You cannot fake genuine, immediate confusion. Professionals who have done this job for years, who have felled hundreds or thousands of trees, who think they've seen every possible thing a tree trunk can do — and then something happens that their entire career didn't prepare them for. That's the part that makes this kind of footage so different from staged "reaction" content you see everywhere else online. Nobody scripts confusion that specific. Nobody fakes the half-second delay where someone's brain is visibly trying to process what their eyes are showing them. — I'll leave you with this. Every single day, all over the world, people are cutting down trees for completely mundane reasons — storm cleanup, construction, disease removal, firewood, somebody's yard finally getting redone. Thousands of trees. Every day. Most of the time it's exactly as boring as it sounds: cut, drop, haul, done. And then every so often, completely without warning, one of those ordinary trees turns out to be something else entirely. A tree that's been quietly filling itself with water for years, maybe decades, completely undetectable from the outside, sealed shut under bark that looks exactly like every other tree on the block. Nobody plans for that. Nobody sees it coming. That's exactly what makes it worth watching when it happens to be caught on camera. You already scrolled past the video once. Go back and actually watch what happens the second that bar breaks through. You will not believe how much comes out. And once you know why, you'll start looking at every old tree in your neighborhood a little differently. — Let's talk about the pressure numbers again, because I glossed over just how absurd they get in the most extreme documented cases. Standard atmospheric pressure at sea level is about 14.7 pounds per square inch. Some measured wetwood pockets have registered internal gas pressures multiple times higher than that — enough that when researchers insert a hollow probe to sample the gas, it doesn't calmly bubble out, it forces its way through with an audible hiss, sometimes strong enough to make a sound loud enough to hear from several feet away. Now picture that same pressure, except instead of a thin research probe, it's a chainsaw bar plowing straight through the wall of the pocket in one continuous motion. There's no controlled release valve. There's no slow bleed-off. The seal just fails all at once, and whatever's inside — water, gas, fermented bacterial slurry — takes the fastest path out, which is usually straight toward whoever is standing closest. That's not drama for the sake of drama. That's just fluid dynamics doing what fluid dynamics does when a pressurized container gets breached in one violent motion instead of a slow leak. — People love comparing this to other "trees doing things they shouldn't" phenomena, so let's run through a few, because it puts wetwood in context. Root pressure is a real, separately documented thing — some trees, particularly certain maples and grapevines, can generate enough internal pressure through osmosis alone to push water dozens of feet upward through their trunk with zero mechanical pump involved, which is part of why maple syrup tapping works in early spring: cut a hole, and sap doesn't just sit there, it actively flows out under real pressure. Bamboo, meanwhile, has hollow internal chambers between each node that can fill with water and, when punctured, release a surprising rush for something that looks like solid stalk from the outside. Certain cacti and succulents store such enormous internal water reserves that a single barrel cactus can hold multiple gallons, enough that desert survival guides have long described (with real caveats about bitterness and toxicity in some species) cutting into one as an emergency water source. None of those are the exact same mechanism as bacterial wetwood. But they all share the same core surprise: the outside of a plant tells you almost nothing about what's happening on the inside. Trees and plants in general are far better at hiding internal reservoirs, chambers, and pressure systems than most people ever consider, because we're trained from childhood to think of "wood" as uniformly solid and dry. — Here's a question I want you to actually think about instead of just scrolling past: why does this footage hit people so hard emotionally, when it's "just" water? I think it's because it breaks a category we didn't know we had. Somewhere in your brain, without ever being taught it explicitly, you built a rule: solid things don't have hidden liquid interiors. Rocks are solid. Wood is solid. A tree trunk, no matter how big, is filed under "solid object" right next to a brick or a fence post. So when a tree trunk suddenly behaves like a punctured water balloon, it's not just surprising — it's a small, harmless violation of a rule you didn't know you were relying on. That's the exact same psychological mechanism behind why people can't look away from videos of hidden compartments, false walls, geodes cracked open to reveal crystal interiors, or ice cores pulled from glaciers showing air bubbles thousands of years old. The object looked like one thing on the outside and turned out to be something completely different on the inside. Our brains are wired to lock onto that specific kind of surprise and replay it. — I want to walk through what's actually happening at a microscopic level too, because the bacteria part is honestly the wildest piece of this whole story and it usually gets skipped over. The bacteria responsible for wetwood are largely anaerobic — meaning they thrive specifically in environments with no oxygen, which describes the sealed interior of a heartwood pocket perfectly. Species commonly implicated include various strains that also show up in other low-oxygen fermentation processes elsewhere in nature. These bacteria essentially treat the interior of the tree the way yeast treats a sealed fermentation vessel: they break down wood sugars and cellulose components, and as a byproduct of that metabolic process, they release gas. Methane. Carbon dioxide. Sometimes hydrogen sulfide, which is the compound responsible for the "rotten egg" smell associated with some of the worst slime flux cases. Here's the part that should genuinely unsettle you a little: this process can continue, essentially undisturbed, for years. The bacteria don't need light. They don't need a food source refill from outside — the wood itself is the food source. They don't need anything from us at all. They just sit there, fermenting slowly, generation after generation, quietly filling an internal chamber with liquid and gas, completely indifferent to whatever's happening in the world outside the bark. Somebody could mow the lawn around that tree every single week for fifteen years and never once suspect that a private, self-sustaining microbial ecosystem is operating a few inches away, sealed inside solid wood. — Foresters have their own folklore around this too, separate from the old "wet-hearted tree" naming I mentioned earlier, and some of it is genuinely unsettling if you sit with it. There are accounts — some documented in forestry incident reports, some passed around as workplace stories among tree crews — of wetwood pockets releasing enough pressurized gas and liquid on impact to knock a chainsaw sideways out of the operator's hands, or to spray fluid several feet, catching a nearby coworker completely off guard. Tree removal is already one of the more dangerous manual trades that exists — statistically it's consistently ranked among the more hazardous occupations — and wetwood is one of those factors that experienced crews specifically train new hires to be aware of, precisely because it's invisible until the exact moment it isn't. Some crews have a rule: if you see that telltale dark wet staining running down bark from an old wound, you treat the cut differently. Different angle. Different bracing. A moment of hesitation most people watching a video would never think to expect from someone who cuts trees for a living every single day. That hesitation, when you see it, is not caution for no reason. It's caution earned from someone else's story about the day their trunk sprayed back. — Let's zoom out for a second and talk about why nature keeps doing this to us — hiding things in plain sight that overturn assumptions we didn't even know we were making. Geodes look like plain gray rocks from the outside and crack open into crystal cathedrals. Certain seemingly solid ice formations conceal air pockets and liquid water inside glacial ice that's been sealed for centuries. Some seeds remain dormant and viable inside dry-looking husks for years, sometimes decades, before conditions trigger germination. Nature is, on some fundamental level, extremely good at packaging surprising internal states inside boring, unremarkable exteriors, because there's rarely an evolutionary or physical reason for the outside of something to accurately advertise what's happening on the inside. A tree trunk covered in bark has absolutely no obligation to tell you what's going on underneath. And most of the time, honestly, there's nothing dramatic going on under there — it really is just solid wood, rings, sapwood doing its normal job. But every so often, under the right combination of an old wound, the right bacteria finding their way in, and years of undisturbed fermentation, you get this. A tree that's secretly been operating as a sealed, pressurized reservoir the entire time, waiting for someone with a saw to finally find out. — A few quick things people always ask once they learn about this, so let's knock them out here. Is the water safe to drink? Historically, some accounts describe it as drinkable in a pinch, but modern guidance is far more cautious — wetwood fluid is loaded with bacteria and fermentation byproducts, and depending on the tree and how advanced the infection is, it can range from relatively clean-tasting to genuinely foul and bacterially loaded. Not something to treat as a reliable water source by modern standards, whatever old logging stories might say. Does it kill the tree? Not necessarily, and that's part of what makes it so strange. Trees can live with wetwood for years, even decades, functioning normally from the outside — leafing out every spring, growing new rings — while quietly carrying an internal pocket the entire time. It's more of a chronic condition than an acute one in most cases, though severe cases can weaken the tree structurally and contribute to internal decay. Can you tell from the outside before cutting? Sometimes, if you know exactly what to look for — that dark staining running from an old wound is the main visible tell. But plenty of wetwood trees show no obvious external sign at all until the moment someone cuts into the wrong spot. — If you made it this far, you now know something about trees that the overwhelming majority of people who scroll past videos like this never bother to learn. You know the name of the phenomenon. You know the bacterial mechanism behind it. You know which species are most prone to it, why old wounds matter, how much pressure can actually build up inside, and why experienced tree crews still treat certain trunks with real caution. That's a strange amount of knowledge to walk away with from what looks, at first glance, like just another oddly satisfying clip. But that's usually how it goes with the genuinely wild stuff nature does — it looks small on the surface, and then you pull one thread and end up somewhere you didn't expect. Go watch it again with all of that in your head this time. Watch the exact frame where the bar breaks through. Watch what the water does the instant it has somewhere to go. Watch the reaction on the person holding the saw — that's not performance, that's genuine surprise from someone who has almost certainly done this exact job a thousand times before and never seen a tree do this. Some trees really are just wood, top to bottom, nothing hiding inside. And then there are the ones that have been quietly running their own private reservoir for twenty or thirty years, sealed under ordinary-looking bark, waiting for exactly one cut to finally let it out. You just watched what that looks like the moment it happens.

I am leaving San Francisco. My heart is broken... Thank You Gavin Newsom, London Breed, Scott Wiener, Connie Chan, Jennifer Friedenbach, Aaron Peskin, Dean Preston, Hillary Ronen, Myrna Melgar and all the other leftist anti-American politicians who destroyed one of the greatest cities in history. San Francisco used be to the most beautiful city in the world... Now how can I build a life for myself in this city, let alone start a family, with all this chaos, corruption, incompetence and lawlessness that plagues our community? I gave this city everything I had. Years of my life, my safety, my money, my energy. I fought for it. I poured out my blood, sweat and tears for it. I stayed when almost everyone else left. And now in order to save my own life, I must make the painful decision to leave. I don't want to go but I have to... Our government is corrupt to its core... leftist reptilians in suits who keep the chaos alive because it keeps their donors and “nonprofits” flush with cash. Our streets look like a third world country... open air fentanyl markets, tents everywhere, human feces, needles, trash piles and bodies on sidewalks. It’s not “progressive.” It’s a collapse. My family and friends? Most of them are gone either they left or they died here. None of my family and friends want to visit me and that's because traveling to San Francisco has become risky. Nobody wants to jeopardize their car or see the humanitarian crisis happening on the sidewalks. The cost of living is skyrocketing. Our wages stagnate and jobs are disappearing to robots and immigrants. You can’t afford to exist in San Francisco unless you’re already rich. I don't want to live paycheck to paycheck. I deserve to enjoy the fruit of my labor. I am paying the highest rates in the country for the least representation as our infrastructure falls apart... aging pipes, crumbling roads, power outages and the constant threat of The Big Earthquake. Our economy has hit terminal velocity. Businesses are fleeing, stores are closing and the tech bros who once promised utopia have replaced themselves with AI and automation. Now they’re laying their own people off while the executives hide behind private security. Illegal immigrants are prioritized over American citizens... luxury hotels, gift cards, free services, while our veterans sleep in the rain and our own homeless get ignored. Every single night my car is either ticketed, towed, broken into, or all three. These people openly prefer socialism and communism over conservatism. They say it with pride. And if you’re straight, white, male, or Christian? They hate you on sight. They treat you like you’re the enemy. No subtlety, no shame. The women here are in constant fight-or-flight mode. They only feel safe dating millionaires. The dating scene is a nightmare. I’m a good looking guy who knows how to talk to women, I do better than most guys and even I can’t get a real date without some woman asking how much money I make. How about, "How's the weather"??? The nightlife is dead. All my favorite bars, clubs, and restaurants have shut down. The few that are left charge $20 just to walk in, then another small fortune for drinks that taste like regret. The local newspapers are pure far left propaganda. If you’re a good guy who votes red and risks your life to stop a restaurant robbery... and actually thwarts the robber... they’ll still paint you as the villain. I’ve seen it happen to me and others. The coroner’s office can’t even keep up with all the goddamn bodies. They mix up the names of dead people with living ones, misidentified remains and dumped corpses in the bay because there’s just simply no room left anywhere else. Fentanyl is showing up on playgrounds and in schools. Public schools are indoctrination factories that teach kids to hate their own country while test scores plummet and parents pull their children out in record numbers. Scott Wiener wants kids who don't even know their ABCs and 123s to change genders and hide secrets from Mom and Dad. Leftist educators are predators. And algebra has become illegal. The public library has become a daytime drug den and homeless shelter, where you can’t even use the bathroom without stepping over people shooting up. Our parks and beaches are littered with human waste, stolen bikes, and abandoned tents... places that used to be beautiful are now no go zones. I need to escape the containment zone. The city’s budget is billions in the red and yet for some reason they keep spending on “equity” programs and luxury accommodations for non citizens while basic services like street cleaning and pothole repair are neglected. Mental health services are a joke... people in crisis are left to wander the streets screaming and the only “help” they get is a tent and a government-issued crack pipe. Yeah that'll help them. Crime statistics are deliberately underreported or reclassified so politicians can claim “declining crime” while residents live in fear. The city’s water supply is contaminated with everything from lead to fentanyl runoff, people are calling themselves "chemical babies" and they still charge premium rates for this water. San Francisco’s “progressive” housing policies have made it impossible to build affordable homes, leaving thousands sleeping in cars or on sidewalks while empty luxury units sit vacant. The transit system is a rolling mobile open air asylum disaster... buses and trains are filthy, unreliable, and unsafe, with assaults and thefts happening daily. I don't even want to talk about the things I have expirienced on the san francisco train. I have seen drug addicts fornicating, homeless people overdose, criminals fleeing the law, people using fentanyl, people pooping and peeing, families being attacked by violent lunatics, yeah, that San Francisco train is giving New York City's subway a run for their money. Animal control is nonexistent. Where is PETA when you actually need them? All these abused stray dogs, raccoons and abandoned pit bulls roam free while people get attacked in broad daylight. Roving packs of cayotes in San Francisco abandoned downtown financial district. Empty Skyscrapers and packs of Cayotes and we still vote Democrat. The city’s fire department is chronically understaffed and underfunded, yet they prioritize “climate justice” training over basic firefighting readiness. Streetlights are burned out for months at a time, leaving entire blocks in darkness while car break ins and assaults spike. The city refuses to enforce basic but will ticket you for the wrong color license plate frame. San Francisco’s “sanctuary city” policies have turned it into a magnet for international criminal , while local police have their hands tied by progressive DAs who refuse to prosecute. Even if they do, the judge just releases them the next day, The air quality is toxic from wildfires, encampment fires and unchecked drug use, yet they lecture residents about carbon footprints. The city’s recycling and composting programs are a farce... I used to work at the landfill... most of it ends up all mixed together in the landfills anyway, while residents are fined for using the wrong bin. Public restrooms have all been closed down because of the homelessness and fentanyl crisis in our community. Most bathrooms are permanently locked or destroyed, forcing people to defecate in alleys and doorways because the city won’t maintain them. Our local leaders fly private jets to climate conferences while telling citizens to stop driving gasoline powered cars. The city’s permitting process is so slow and expensive that small businesses die waiting for approval, while big developers get fast tracked. San Francisco’s “defund the police” experiment left the department gutted, morale crushed, and response times so slow that people just stop calling 911. When my front door got kicked in by burglars, I had to fight them off with my two hands because I didn't have a gun. When I called 911, I got a voicemail and told to leave a message at the beep. The city’s “equity” hiring practices have filled critical departments with unqualified people who prioritize ideology over competence. Not being white shouldn't be the only qualification somebody needs to get hired. Rat infestations are so bad that they’re now considered “wildlife” and protected, while residents wake up to rodents in their kitchens. The city’s homeless “outreach” teams hand out tents and needles but refuse to enforce any rules, turning public spaces into permanent encampments. Emergency rooms are overwhelmed with overdoses and psychiatric cases, forcing regular patients to wait hours or leave untreated. The city’s tourism board still markets San Francisco as a “world class destination” while tourists get robbed in broad daylight and leave traumatized. This isn’t the San Francisco I grew up loving. The city council spends more time debating pronoun policies and symbolic resolutions than fixing the actual problems residents face every day. Public art grants go to waste on virtue signaling artists instead of actual talented artists, while classic statues and monuments are removed or defaced for being too white". Street vendors operate illegally without permits, selling stolen goods and counterfeit items while legitimate businesses are crushed by regulations. Often times the fence guys are standing next to the fentanyl dealers. Fent is $3 a gram, cheaper than a loaf of bread, a gallon of milk and a gallon of gasoline. San Francisco’s “climate emergency” declarations come with more regulations and fees, yet the city does nothing to help Mother Nature. Look at The Great California Delta. It is dying. The public health department pushes endless vaccine mandates while ignoring the overdose epidemic killing thousands every year. All the while Gavin Newsom eats at the french laundry without a mask. The city’s “zero waste” goals are a joke... trash piles up faster than ever while residents are lectured about single use plastics. The board of supervisors routinely votes to protect drug dealers from prosecution while residents are left to deal with the consequences of their leniency on international criminals. Makes you wonder if they are being bribed or blackmailed? Our city’s “sanctuary” policies extend to protecting violent criminals, as long as they claim asylum or fear deportation. The SFPD has been reduced to a skeleton crew, and when they do respond, they’re often told to stand down to avoid “escalation.” The city’s homeless czars make six figures while sleeping in a luxury apartment, yet can’t explain why tent encampments keep growing. They are disconnected from the people they are supposed to help. Women disappear from the streets for days or weeks at a time, or sometimes never to return, only to turn up dead or never turn up at all, yet the city barely investigates missing persons cases anymore. Walking around downtown San Francisco, there are new missing women flyers every week. It is very disturbing. I might be silenced for discussing this one topic. Homeless women and children are left vulnerable in encampments with no protection, while predators move freely among the tents and no one intervenes. I shouldn't be seeing family units living on the streets but I am and across the street are billionaire tech offices. Theft is so normalized that people openly smash windows in broad daylight, grab packages off doorsteps and walk away with bikes while residents watch helplessly. No house or apartment is ever really safer. Shoplifting gangs hit stores multiple times a day, loading up carts and walking out without consequence, leaving retailers to eat the losses. Shelves are empty. You would think people are preparing for the apocalypse. Nope. THEY ARE SELLING THE STOLEN ITEMS TO BUY FENTANYL. Theft of catalytic converters, car batteries, and even entire vehicles has become so common that insurance companies are dropping coverage for entire neighborhoods. Good luck getting car or home insurance in California. I’m not abandoning San Francisco. I fought every day for years to save the city. Now I'm choosing to live. I’m moving somewhere I can breathe, build, create and follow my American Dream. Hope you understand. I can't keep living like this in this modern Sodom and Gomorrah.

Often times the fence guys are standing next to the fentanyl dealers. Fent is $3 a gram, cheaper than a loaf of bread, a gallon of milk and a gallon of gasoline. San Francisco’s “climate emergency” declarations come with more regulations and fees, yet the city does nothing to help Mother Nature. Look at The Great California Delta. It is dying. The public health department pushes endless vaccine mandates while ignoring the overdose epidemic killing thousands every year. All the while Gavin Newsom eats at the french laundry without a mask. The city’s “zero waste” goals are a joke... trash piles up faster than ever while residents are lectured about single use plastics. The board of supervisors routinely votes to protect drug dealers from prosecution while residents are left to deal with the consequences of their leniency on international criminals. Makes you wonder if they are being bribed or blackmailed? Our city’s “sanctuary” policies extend to protecting violent criminals, as long as they claim asylum or fear deportation. The SFPD has been reduced to a skeleton crew, and when they do respond, they’re often told to stand down to avoid “escalation.” The city’s homeless czars make six figures while sleeping in a luxury apartment, yet can’t explain why tent encampments keep growing. They are disconnected from the people they are supposed to help. Women disappear from the streets for days or weeks at a time, or sometimes never to return, only to turn up dead or never turn up at all, yet the city barely investigates missing persons cases anymore. Walking around downtown San Francisco, there are new missing women flyers every week. It is very disturbing. I might be silenced for discussing this one topic. Homeless women and children are left vulnerable in encampments with no protection, while predators move freely among the tents and no one intervenes. I shouldn't be seeing family units living on the streets but I am and across the street are billionaire tech offices. Theft is so normalized that people openly smash windows in broad daylight, grab packages off doorsteps and walk away with bikes while residents watch helplessly. No house or apartment is ever really safer. Shoplifting gangs hit stores multiple times a day, loading up carts and walking out without consequence, leaving retailers to eat the losses. Shelves are empty. You would think people are preparing for the apocalypse. Nope. THEY ARE SELLING THE STOLEN ITEMS TO BUY FENTANYL. Theft of catalytic converters, car batteries, and even entire vehicles has become so common that insurance companies are dropping coverage for entire neighborhoods. Good luck getting car or home insurance in California. I’m not abandoning San Francisco. I fought every day for years to save the city. Now I'm choosing to live. I’m moving somewhere I can breathe, build, create and follow my American Dream. Hope you understand. I can't keep living like this in this modern Sodom and Gomorrah.

Elon Musk wants us building successful businesses here on 𝕏, NOT relying on X payouts. Elon is a trillionaire entrepreneur that got there by NETWORKING ideas and visions with others. He now owns a social media platform and wants us doing the exact same thing here. Elon wants you to build a following, find a business that offers a valuable service to the community and country, succeed beyond your WILDEST dreams with it and then NETWORK TO REPLICATE IT AND HELP OTHERS HERE DO THE SAME! That's the winning model that will not only benefit all of us, but be financially beneficial to Elon as well, and I'd like to explain why. Meta generates their primary ad revenue from big corporations owned by corrupt elites advertising their products to our asleep family members. Big Corporations HATE Elon so that is absolutely OUT of the question here on this platform, so they need an alternative model to pull in revenue to see an ROI ont he purchase of Twitter, and it's up to all of us to help generate that. Instagram is the complete OPPOSITE of Meta and Youtube. Instagram generates roughly 87 Billion dollars each year in ad revenue with a substantial amount of that coming from regular users of the platform who are also entrepreneurs working successful business between their niche content, and they are paying INTO ads to advertise that business between said niche content. There are 19 year olds on Instagram making 6 figures a MONTH drop shipping and they make courses teaching you step by step instructions how you can do it too. They pay anywhere between $15 - $20K a month INTO the ad program to advertise their businesses, between their regular content. There are MILLIONS of instances of this on Instagram and that is what's feeding a massive portion of the ad revenue program. The #1 reason people create an instagram account and actively try to grow it, is entrepreneurship. THAT'S what Elon wants us doing HERE! Now, the conservative space on Instagram is MASSIVE and 👉 LITERALLY 👈 all they do is lazily scroll 𝕏 all day to see the content YOU ALL are sending viral here, and they STEAL IT, easily moving it to their Instagram accounts to build their own following to then work a successful business. You need to understand that part very clearly. They're lazily stealing YOUR content from here, building successful businesses off it and posting videos of them traveling the world living lives of luxury. I've been tracking them doing this for SIX YEARS since 2020. If you can explain to me why they are more privileged and deserving than YOU to be living successfully off of YOUR work, I'd love to hear your reasoning on this. Now, i had a Zoom meeting with a conservative mom on Instagram that works the same business from home that I do, and she's helped over 60 people on Instagram grow their following from 0-200K to then work that business with her and she opened up her back office to me to show me everything and teach me how she does what she does and precisely how the Instagram algorithm works to grow. I'm not going into specifics, but it's absolutely clear based on my assessment that the development team behind Instagram makes it hard to grow there on purpose because they psychologically understands how to keep toxicity from taking over the platform by ensuring the extremely impatient "I want it NOW" people aren't able to grow large platforms to take over the entire platform. They understand these people are significantly more likely to spread toxicity across the platform, original content to drop, entrepreneurship to disappear and incoming ad revenue to dip much lower as a result. They understand those with military style determination and grit will stick it out to succeed, have much higher chance of being more intelligent to end up bringing original content to the platform, and have a much higher confidence rate in themselves to seek entrepreneurship, build community based income opportunities where anyone can come in and succeed to create very healthy communities, and then pay into the ad program to advertise it to succeed even more, turning the platform into a truly symbiotic relationship between the entrepreneurial users and the platform itself that allows them to grow and succeed in the first place. We're doing things all wrong here. 𝕏 isn't broken — our community is. These massive 1+ million follower accounts here that grew by putting MSM articles into Grok AI to have him rewrite them to avoid plagiarism charges and milk the 𝕏 revenue system and they will NEVER be able to figure this out because they're FAKING their intelligence by doing this and Elon does NOT want us idolizing accounts like that because they're giving us false illusions and impressions as to what success looks like. Elon wants us aiming much higher than 𝕏 revenue because 𝕏 revenue is NOT generational wealth to pass onto our children and we're supposed to be working together as a community to build things that are. Elon wants to be able to advertise this platform as having the MOST self-made millionaires than ANY other platform on the planet. As things currently sit, 𝕏 is single handedly leading any other platform for world news distribution, but we're trailing significantly in wealth generation. I believe the changes in monetization are to force people out of their comfort zones to seek alternative means of income generation to help correct that. We're not supposed to be competing with each other to gain 𝕏 revenue, we're supposed to be working together to build communities and revenue to compete with Instagram. The problem is, most of us came to this platform as slaves to a broken and corrupted system because we want change and have no language for these things. So, I'll be the first one to plant my flag. Do I know what I'm doing? Absolutely not. Do my children deserve having a mother that steps far outside her comfort zone to give it everything she's got to build something that gives them a better life? You bet your ass. Before my son was born with his tumor in his throat and the medical field bankrupted me for everything I was worth, I worked a VERY successful business from home that allowed me to homeschool my children. We've been pointing out all this corruption but what we now need are SOLUTIONS and community based systems to the corrupt system we're all stuck in, that anyone can implement and benefit from. I think it's time for us all to build that together and I'd like to start. We do have tools to fight back against the corrupt system but it's going to take all of us coming together to do it. The 2 BIGGEST ways we fund these corrupt elites every single month, is buying food and basic household goods from their corporations. All of our stores and corporations have become owned by a small group of Wall Street shareholder elites that lobby our politicians in Congress to look the other way while their corporations poison us and our children with their toxic products. We don't have to keep funding that system anymore as a parallel economy does in fact exist where profits are CUT OFF from reaching them and are instead redirected back to the American people. Wall Street elites like BlackRock-Vanguard and central bankers like JP Morgan & Chase does own 93% of the consumer goods sold in America. If the "conspiracies" are true, then BlackRock and Vanguard are owned by private Central Bankers that serve ENGLAND and they partnered with China to steal our manufacturing. Powerful banking elites purchase majority shares of the corporations for these Central Bankers, then moves the manufacturer to China. ALL of our consumer wealth is being siphoned out of America and going to England and China via this model and they lobbied BOTH parties in Congress through donations from their corporations to keep them silent about it. When we buy stuff in their stores, the profits are going to Wall Street and some of those profits go to product advertising on TV and that's what pays networks heads to pay the salaries of Fake News anchors millions of dollars a year to LIE to us. The video I provided in this post was Dylan Ratigan addressing the illusion of the left vs right paradigm IN 2011! He talks about all of our wealth being siphoned out of America. We were so close to figuring this out in 2011, then all of the DIVISIONS started to significantly ramp up against us to keep us fighting each other to keep this hidden so the theft of our consumer wealth out of the country could continue, to further hollow out America. Every time we buy Tide laundry detergent, we're funding the Military Industrial Complex and their forever wars because the same shareholders that owns tide — BlackRock-Vanguard — owns the weapons defense contracting companies that makes missiles and profits from death in forever wars. It's not just Tide, it's ALL basic household goods that we buy every single month as we send those profits through Wall Street when we support these corporations. Laundry detergent, dish soap, deodorant, shampoo conditioner, toothpaste, and EVERY other product that props up Johnson&Johnson and all these other cabal corporations. We can't fix America if we continue to support these cabal corporations that poison us for profit because they also own the pharmaceutical companies too and they've lobbied both sides of Congress to look the other eat while they do it. There's ONE family owned consumer goods manufacturer left here in America that can ship to MILLIONS of doorsteps and they make 470+ basic household goods that we still need for our families every single month from safe laundry detergent that won't give your children hives and rashes, to shampoo, deodorant, fluoride free toothpaste, dish soap, safe cleaning products that won't give you cancers or harm the lungs of your children and pets, to 470+ other basic needs as well as clean grass fed beef and steaks, and they've been right here in America for the last 41 years. They're a privately owned company and NOT publicly traded in Wall Street so profits are NOT going to Wall Street elites who then give them to Congress, the profits go back to us instead, which is the way things should be. Companies like this made no sense 20 years ago when we were all asleep and loved Walmart, but we're all waking up to what these corrupt elites have been doing and we need an alternative system that benefits families in America instead of powerful wall street pedophiles that own and control all aspects of our lives. It's not good enough to just shop American made anymore, we need to keep our consumer dollars OUT of the hands of Wall Street elites. They have NOT been responsible with our tax dollars, and they have NOT been responsible with the profits we send them by supporting their massive corporations, so it's time to cut them off and shift those profits back to the American people who need them instead. Walk around your home and look at all the household products you're buying every month that funds this corrupt system. We can squash their monopoly and reverse engineer ACTUAL capitalism and Robin Hood profits from the Wall Street elites by shifting MILLIONS of dollars away from them and back to people who need it, for everyday stuff we're already buying every single month from them for our families. Elon Musk wants us building community based wealth generating systems ON THIS PLATFORM to tear down the elites and rebuild the middle-class instead. We don't need more BREAKING posts. We don't need more corruption exposed, as we've seen enough to understand the entire system THAT WE FUND every month, is rotten from the top down. What we need is a community based system built for us that allows all of us to legally rob that corrupt system, and I think it's time we build it. Winter is coming. There's no better time to LEARN and build an online business and start building something that can be passed down to our children in the future, that's also beneficial to America, and I'd like to help build it. If you're interested in building it with me, you can message me here directly or you can email me! 🥰 BFertig95@Outlook.com

🚨🚨🚨If you hold $XRP, stellar:native, hedera-hashgraph:native or other U.S.-rooted digital assets, you do NOT want to miss this CLARITY Act update. Washington just put an actual clock on crypto market structure. Patrick Witt, the Executive Director of the Presidential Council of Advisors for Digital Assets, made it clear in his latest Semafor interview that the current political window is unusually important. His message was simple: years of work have already gone into this bill, the gap between both parties has narrowed, and once the November midterms arrive, passing something this large becomes much harder. Then came the date that everyone holding these assets should know: September 15, 2026 That is when the Senate cloture motion on H.R. 3633, the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, ripens. This is not final passage. It is the procedural vote needed to move the legislation forward in the Senate. But if that hurdle clears, Washington moves into the next stage of the bill instead of leaving market structure stuck in political limbo. And this is why I think $XRP, stellar:native and hedera-hashgraph:native deserve a completely different conversation around this vote. Because Washington has already told us something huge about all three. Back on March 17, 2026, the SEC and CFTC explicitly named XRP, Stellar XLM and Hedera HBAR as examples of digital commodities. Read that carefully. The argument is no longer starting from: “Will Washington eventually decide what these assets are?” The agencies have already placed them in the digital-commodity category. The missing piece is turning that regulatory direction into a durable federal market structure covering the actual financial system around them. That is what CLARITY is trying to do. And this bill is much further along than people realize. The House already passed CLARITY on July 17, 2025 by 294–134, with 78 Democrats voting for it. Then the Senate Banking Committee advanced its version on May 14, 2026 by 15–9. Senator Cynthia Lummis released the combined Banking and Agriculture Committee text on July 22. That created the current 616-page Senate substitute. So we have already moved through House passage, committee work, a merged Senate framework and now into a Senate floor procedural vote. Patrick Witt calling this the moment to act makes much more sense when you see how far the legislation has already travelled. And I think people are underestimating what the legislation actually deals with. This is not a bill that simply stamps “commodity” onto a few cryptocurrencies and walks away. It lays out federal rules around digital-commodity exchanges, brokers, dealers, qualified custody, bank activity, distributed-ledger recordkeeping, tokenized securities, self-custody, software developers, portfolio margining and regulatory sandboxes. That matters far more to me than another headline saying Washington is “crypto friendly.” Because the real institutional bottleneck has always been the operating questions. 👉Who regulates the spot market? 👉What can a bank hold? 👉What can a broker trade? 👉How does custody work? 👉Can a bank use a public distributed ledger? 👉How should tokenized securities operate? Can existing financial institutions plug digital commodities into products they already offer? CLARITY is designed to put actual federal structure around those questions. And one provision jumps off the page when you compare it with what Ripple, Stellar and Hedera have spent years building. The Senate framework says a national bank may use digital assets or distributed-ledger systems for activities, products and services it is otherwise legally authorized to provide. That sentence could have enormous consequences. Think about the difference between a bank asking: “Are we even allowed to touch this technology?” and a bank asking: “Which network should we use?” That is a massive shift in the commercial conversation. And $XRP, stellar:native and hedera-hashgraph:native already have ecosystems aimed directly at the second question. That is what gets me bullish. The law would not need to invent their institutional use cases. Those use cases are already being built. Start with $XRP. No large U.S.-associated crypto asset has carried a regulatory scar quite like XRP. Ripple was sued by the SEC in 2020. Years of uncertainty followed. Then the district court concluded that XRP itself was not inherently a security, Ripple's programmatic XRP sales were not securities transactions, and certain direct institutional sales were treated differently. The litigation reached a final judgment in 2024. Ripple and the SEC dismissed their appeals in August 2025. Then March 2026 arrives and XRP appears directly in the SEC/CFTC digital-commodity interpretation. Now add the latest Senate language. Section 10105 addresses digital-asset transactions that already received a non-appealable final federal court judgment finding that the transaction was not an offer, sale or distribution of a security. That provision has obvious relevance to XRP's history. So XRP is entering this CLARITY debate with something very few assets possess: a completed federal court record, an agency digital-commodity classification, and proposed legislation that specifically acknowledges the significance of prior final court judgments. That changes the entire framing around XRP. For years, XRP had to carry the question of regulatory survival. The next chapter can increasingly become about scale. How much regulated liquidity can XRP attract? How deeply can it enter payments? How much institutional FX can use it? How much tokenized finance can XRPL support? How much liquidity can Ripple Prime bring into the broader ecosystem? Those are much better questions for holders than endlessly debating whether XRP itself should exist inside U.S. markets. And Ripple has not been sitting still waiting for Congress. Its 2026 institutional strategy describes XRP utility across payments, liquidity and credit. Ripple Prime now clears more than $3 trillion annually across markets for 300+ institutional customers. Its U.S. prime-brokerage infrastructure supports XRP and RLUSD alongside broader institutional trading activity. Ripple Prime also raised $275 million in investment-grade senior notes to expand its U.S. business. Ripple has RLUSD. 👉It has payments. 👉It has custody. 👉It has tokenization infrastructure. 👉It has treasury infrastructure. 👉It has institutional liquidity infrastructure. 👉It has onchain credit development. That is why the timing is so important. Imagine if Ripple had to begin building all of that after regulatory clarity arrived. It would still be years away from institutional scale. Instead, much of the machinery already exists before Congress finishes writing the rules. That is a fundamentally stronger setup. Then there is stellar:native. Stellar has a different regulatory story, but the fit with CLARITY may be just as powerful. The Stellar Development Foundation, led by Denelle Dixon, has been asking Washington for clear digital-commodity rules for years. Dixon previously described regulatory clarity before the Senate Agriculture Committee as existential to building responsibly and bringing established institutions into blockchain. Fast-forward to September 2026. The SEC/CFTC explicitly lists XLM as a digital commodity. Stellar has roughly $4 billion of real-world assets on the network according to SDF's current update. Stablecoin transfer volume reached $11.4 billion in Q2, up 72% quarter over quarter. And then U.S. Bank did something that perfectly explains why CLARITY matters. On September 9, U.S. Bank completed its first pilot transaction using USBDC, its proprietary dollar-backed stablecoin, on Stellar. The bank moved that digital money between its own entities in North America and Europe. This wasn't separated from normal bank infrastructure. The transaction remained connected to U.S. Bank's existing finance, risk, compliance and operational systems. The pilot tested minting, payment, redemption, freezing and clawback. And U.S. Bank and SDF are already evaluating additional areas including liquidity management, collateral mobility and cross-border treasury operations. That is one of the cleanest examples I can think of. A major American bank is already testing proprietary bank money on Stellar. At the same time, Congress is debating legislation saying national banks can use digital assets and distributed ledgers for financial activities they are otherwise permitted to perform. The technology is already there. The bank is already testing it. The legislation is trying to create a clearer statutory environment around the activity. That is why I don't view CLARITY as the beginning of Stellar's institutional thesis. It could become the legal framework catching up to something that is already happening. Then there is DTCC. DTC's Tokenization Service plans to connect tokenized DTC-custodied assets to Stellar in the first half of 2027. The asset classes being evaluated include U.S. Treasury bills, notes and bonds, major-index ETFs and Russell 1000 securities. CLARITY separately addresses how tokenized securities can operate while remaining subject to securities law. Put those two developments together and the significance becomes obvious. Stellar's institutional story is increasingly about bank money on one side and tokenized capital markets on the other. XLM sits natively underneath that network through fees, reserves and network liquidity. That is exactly the kind of environment that becomes more valuable when financial institutions have a durable rulebook. Then look at hedera-hashgraph:native. This connection gets even more specific. Patrick Witt himself participated at HederaCon 2026 in the closing fireside chat titled “Policy Meets Innovation: Clarity over Chaos.” He was literally discussing what CLARITY could mean for institutional adoption and U.S. digital assets inside the Hedera ecosystem. Then consider what Hedera already has in place. HBAR was explicitly listed by the SEC/CFTC as a digital commodity. The Canary HBAR ETF, HBR, trades on Nasdaq and directly holds HBAR. Its structure includes BitGo Bank & Trust and Archax as HBAR custodians and U.S. Bank as cash custodian. So regulated public-market access already exists. Then you have the enterprise side. Lloyds Banking Group, Aberdeen Investments and Archax have already executed FX trades using tokenized money-market funds and UK gilts on Hedera as collateral. Aberdeen manages around £500 billion. Archax has also launched real-time streaming cash flows for tokenized securities on Hedera using USDC. Wyoming's FRNT, described in the context as the first U.S. state-issued stable token, is live on Hedera. Hedera Stablecoin Studio is built around banks, tokenized deposits, regulated stablecoins and financial institutions. Again, CLARITY does not need to create Hedera's institutional market. Hedera already has banks, regulated tokenization, stablecoin infrastructure, exchange-traded HBAR access and public-sector digital money activity around the network. The proposed federal framework could make it easier for more institutions to engage with that infrastructure from inside established banking and capital-market rules. That is why these three assets feel so different from the average altcoin around this vote. All three are already standing inside the categories Washington is trying to formalize. XRP is sitting inside payments, liquidity, prime brokerage and tokenized finance. XLM is sitting inside stablecoins, bank money, tokenized securities and cross-border settlement. HBAR is sitting inside regulated tokenization, bank-facing DLT infrastructure, digital cash and collateral markets. And all three are already named by federal regulators as digital commodities. That combination is incredibly important. People call XRP, XLM and HBAR “Made in America” coins all the time. That phrase is not a legal CLARITY category. Congress is not giving an asset special treatment because it has American roots. The stronger story is far better anyway. Ripple was founded in the U.S. The Stellar Development Foundation is a Delaware nonprofit. The Hedera Council is a Delaware LLC. And their native assets already sit inside the same federal digital-commodity interpretation. So if the market starts searching for an informal American digital-infrastructure basket after CLARITY advances, I can understand exactly why these names would come up. Not because of a slogan. Because their infrastructure already overlaps with the financial activities being addressed by the legislation. And there is another layer here that I think crypto investors often miss. Regulatory clarity doesn't only affect traders. It affects compliance departments. 👉Bank boards. 👉Risk committees. 👉Custodians. 👉Broker-dealers. 👉ETF issuers. 👉Prime brokers. 👉Asset managers. 👉Market makers. 👉Corporate treasurers. Those institutions don't need a viral tweet to decide where billions of dollars can go. They need legal language their lawyers can map against their operations. That is where legislation can change behavior. An agency interpretation can be important. A congressional statute can become much harder to reverse. That distinction is exactly why CLARITY can matter even though XRP, XLM and HBAR already have the digital-commodity designation today. March gave them classification. CLARITY can help build the permanent market around that classification. And the wider Trump administration policy direction already lines up with it. The May 19 executive order says federal regulation should allow digital assets and innovative technology to integrate into traditional financial services and payment systems. The White House digital-assets report supports clearer CFTC authority over spot non-security digital assets, custody, trading, DeFi, tokenization, stablecoins and blockchain activity by banks. The policy path is beginning to look coherent: GENIUS Act for stablecoins. SEC/CFTC interpretation for asset taxonomy. The banking executive order for integration into traditional finance. CLARITY for the broader market structure. That is a very different Washington than the one XRP holders were dealing with several years ago. And Patrick Witt is now saying there is a political window to finish the job. He would not attach himself to Senator Cynthia Lummis' specific 2030 warning. But his reasoning was clear. The November midterms can change congressional math. Lame-duck periods are difficult. Major legislation gets harder as an administration gets older. That is why September 15 deserves attention. Again, it is not final passage. But clearing the cloture hurdle would mean the Senate has enough support to proceed despite months of negotiation. For XRP, XLM and HBAR, the significance is not a one-day candle. The significance is what happens if their institutional ecosystems finally operate under a durable statutory framework. For $XRP, that could push the conversation even further away from years of SEC uncertainty and toward institutional scale through Ripple Prime, RLUSD, payments, FX, tokenization and credit. For stellar:native, it could give U.S. Bank's stablecoin work, DTCC's upcoming Stellar connection and the network's growing RWA market a clearer U.S. path. For hedera-hashgraph:native, it could support exactly the bank-DLT and regulated-tokenization environment Hedera has spent years preparing for. And there is even a second policy route in Witt's interview. He said that if Congress does not complete the legislation, the administration intends to push an aggressive SEC and CFTC rulemaking agenda. That means these assets are entering the next stage from a position where the agencies have already placed all three inside the digital-commodity category. I still prefer the congressional route because statute is the bigger prize. But either way, U.S. policy is moving deeper into the question of how these markets should actually operate. That is why I see September 15 differently. It isn't simply another crypto vote. It is a test of whether the United States is ready to move from classifying digital assets to building the financial market around them. And XRP, XLM and HBAR do not need to wait around hoping someone builds infrastructure afterward. The infrastructure is already there. The law is finally trying to catch up. If that happens, the next phase for these assets won't be about proving they belong in American finance. It will be about seeing how much of American finance can actually run through the systems already built around them.

🚨🚨🚨If you hold $XRP, stellar:native, hedera-hashgraph:native or other U.S.-rooted digital assets, you do NOT want to miss this CLARITY Act update. Washington just put an actual clock on crypto market structure. Patrick Witt, the Executive Director of the Presidential Council of Advisors for Digital Assets, made it clear in his latest Semafor interview that the current political window is unusually important. His message was simple: years of work have already gone into this bill, the gap between both parties has narrowed, and once the November midterms arrive, passing something this large becomes much harder. Then came the date that everyone holding these assets should know: September 15, 2026 That is when the Senate cloture motion on H.R. 3633, the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, ripens. This is not final passage. It is the procedural vote needed to move the legislation forward in the Senate. But if that hurdle clears, Washington moves into the next stage of the bill instead of leaving market structure stuck in political limbo. And this is why I think $XRP, stellar:native and hedera-hashgraph:native deserve a completely different conversation around this vote. Because Washington has already told us something huge about all three. Back on March 17, 2026, the SEC and CFTC explicitly named XRP, Stellar XLM and Hedera HBAR as examples of digital commodities. Read that carefully. The argument is no longer starting from: “Will Washington eventually decide what these assets are?” The agencies have already placed them in the digital-commodity category. The missing piece is turning that regulatory direction into a durable federal market structure covering the actual financial system around them. That is what CLARITY is trying to do. And this bill is much further along than people realize. The House already passed CLARITY on July 17, 2025 by 294–134, with 78 Democrats voting for it. Then the Senate Banking Committee advanced its version on May 14, 2026 by 15–9. Senator Cynthia Lummis released the combined Banking and Agriculture Committee text on July 22. That created the current 616-page Senate substitute. So we have already moved through House passage, committee work, a merged Senate framework and now into a Senate floor procedural vote. Patrick Witt calling this the moment to act makes much more sense when you see how far the legislation has already travelled. And I think people are underestimating what the legislation actually deals with. This is not a bill that simply stamps “commodity” onto a few cryptocurrencies and walks away. It lays out federal rules around digital-commodity exchanges, brokers, dealers, qualified custody, bank activity, distributed-ledger recordkeeping, tokenized securities, self-custody, software developers, portfolio margining and regulatory sandboxes. That matters far more to me than another headline saying Washington is “crypto friendly.” Because the real institutional bottleneck has always been the operating questions. 👉Who regulates the spot market? 👉What can a bank hold? 👉What can a broker trade? 👉How does custody work? 👉Can a bank use a public distributed ledger? 👉How should tokenized securities operate? Can existing financial institutions plug digital commodities into products they already offer? CLARITY is designed to put actual federal structure around those questions. And one provision jumps off the page when you compare it with what Ripple, Stellar and Hedera have spent years building. The Senate framework says a national bank may use digital assets or distributed-ledger systems for activities, products and services it is otherwise legally authorized to provide. That sentence could have enormous consequences. Think about the difference between a bank asking: “Are we even allowed to touch this technology?” and a bank asking: “Which network should we use?” That is a massive shift in the commercial conversation. And $XRP, stellar:native and hedera-hashgraph:native already have ecosystems aimed directly at the second question. That is what gets me bullish. The law would not need to invent their institutional use cases. Those use cases are already being built. Start with $XRP. No large U.S.-associated crypto asset has carried a regulatory scar quite like XRP. Ripple was sued by the SEC in 2020. Years of uncertainty followed. Then the district court concluded that XRP itself was not inherently a security, Ripple's programmatic XRP sales were not securities transactions, and certain direct institutional sales were treated differently. The litigation reached a final judgment in 2024. Ripple and the SEC dismissed their appeals in August 2025. Then March 2026 arrives and XRP appears directly in the SEC/CFTC digital-commodity interpretation. Now add the latest Senate language. Section 10105 addresses digital-asset transactions that already received a non-appealable final federal court judgment finding that the transaction was not an offer, sale or distribution of a security. That provision has obvious relevance to XRP's history. So XRP is entering this CLARITY debate with something very few assets possess: a completed federal court record, an agency digital-commodity classification, and proposed legislation that specifically acknowledges the significance of prior final court judgments. That changes the entire framing around XRP. For years, XRP had to carry the question of regulatory survival. The next chapter can increasingly become about scale. How much regulated liquidity can XRP attract? How deeply can it enter payments? How much institutional FX can use it? How much tokenized finance can XRPL support? How much liquidity can Ripple Prime bring into the broader ecosystem? Those are much better questions for holders than endlessly debating whether XRP itself should exist inside U.S. markets. And Ripple has not been sitting still waiting for Congress. Its 2026 institutional strategy describes XRP utility across payments, liquidity and credit. Ripple Prime now clears more than $3 trillion annually across markets for 300+ institutional customers. Its U.S. prime-brokerage infrastructure supports XRP and RLUSD alongside broader institutional trading activity. Ripple Prime also raised $275 million in investment-grade senior notes to expand its U.S. business. Ripple has RLUSD. 👉It has payments. 👉It has custody. 👉It has tokenization infrastructure. 👉It has treasury infrastructure. 👉It has institutional liquidity infrastructure. 👉It has onchain credit development. That is why the timing is so important. Imagine if Ripple had to begin building all of that after regulatory clarity arrived. It would still be years away from institutional scale. Instead, much of the machinery already exists before Congress finishes writing the rules. That is a fundamentally stronger setup. Then there is stellar:native. Stellar has a different regulatory story, but the fit with CLARITY may be just as powerful. The Stellar Development Foundation, led by Denelle Dixon, has been asking Washington for clear digital-commodity rules for years. Dixon previously described regulatory clarity before the Senate Agriculture Committee as existential to building responsibly and bringing established institutions into blockchain. Fast-forward to September 2026. The SEC/CFTC explicitly lists XLM as a digital commodity. Stellar has roughly $4 billion of real-world assets on the network according to SDF's current update. Stablecoin transfer volume reached $11.4 billion in Q2, up 72% quarter over quarter. And then U.S. Bank did something that perfectly explains why CLARITY matters. On September 9, U.S. Bank completed its first pilot transaction using USBDC, its proprietary dollar-backed stablecoin, on Stellar. The bank moved that digital money between its own entities in North America and Europe. This wasn't separated from normal bank infrastructure. The transaction remained connected to U.S. Bank's existing finance, risk, compliance and operational systems. The pilot tested minting, payment, redemption, freezing and clawback. And U.S. Bank and SDF are already evaluating additional areas including liquidity management, collateral mobility and cross-border treasury operations. That is one of the cleanest examples I can think of. A major American bank is already testing proprietary bank money on Stellar. At the same time, Congress is debating legislation saying national banks can use digital assets and distributed ledgers for financial activities they are otherwise permitted to perform. The technology is already there. The bank is already testing it. The legislation is trying to create a clearer statutory environment around the activity. That is why I don't view CLARITY as the beginning of Stellar's institutional thesis. It could become the legal framework catching up to something that is already happening. Then there is DTCC. DTC's Tokenization Service plans to connect tokenized DTC-custodied assets to Stellar in the first half of 2027. The asset classes being evaluated include U.S. Treasury bills, notes and bonds, major-index ETFs and Russell 1000 securities. CLARITY separately addresses how tokenized securities can operate while remaining subject to securities law. Put those two developments together and the significance becomes obvious. Stellar's institutional story is increasingly about bank money on one side and tokenized capital markets on the other. XLM sits natively underneath that network through fees, reserves and network liquidity. That is exactly the kind of environment that becomes more valuable when financial institutions have a durable rulebook. Then look at hedera-hashgraph:native. This connection gets even more specific. Patrick Witt himself participated at HederaCon 2026 in the closing fireside chat titled “Policy Meets Innovation: Clarity over Chaos.” He was literally discussing what CLARITY could mean for institutional adoption and U.S. digital assets inside the Hedera ecosystem. Then consider what Hedera already has in place. HBAR was explicitly listed by the SEC/CFTC as a digital commodity. The Canary HBAR ETF, HBR, trades on Nasdaq and directly holds HBAR. Its structure includes BitGo Bank & Trust and Archax as HBAR custodians and U.S. Bank as cash custodian. So regulated public-market access already exists. Then you have the enterprise side. Lloyds Banking Group, Aberdeen Investments and Archax have already executed FX trades using tokenized money-market funds and UK gilts on Hedera as collateral. Aberdeen manages around £500 billion. Archax has also launched real-time streaming cash flows for tokenized securities on Hedera using USDC. Wyoming's FRNT, described in the context as the first U.S. state-issued stable token, is live on Hedera. Hedera Stablecoin Studio is built around banks, tokenized deposits, regulated stablecoins and financial institutions. Again, CLARITY does not need to create Hedera's institutional market. Hedera already has banks, regulated tokenization, stablecoin infrastructure, exchange-traded HBAR access and public-sector digital money activity around the network. The proposed federal framework could make it easier for more institutions to engage with that infrastructure from inside established banking and capital-market rules. That is why these three assets feel so different from the average altcoin around this vote. All three are already standing inside the categories Washington is trying to formalize. XRP is sitting inside payments, liquidity, prime brokerage and tokenized finance. XLM is sitting inside stablecoins, bank money, tokenized securities and cross-border settlement.

**TOPIC #80: GCV IS CHAMPION! PI NETWORK IS CHAMPION!** Esteemed Global Pioneers, As we approach the six-year milestone, we anticipate a successful OM. It is noteworthy that CT did not achieve OM in the past three years due to their decision to wait for our successful OM. While the process of implementing OM may appear straightforward, achieving a successful OM is a challenging endeavor. Therefore, our three-year pursuit has been paramount, and we are now on the cusp of reaching our initial objective. From my analysis, I predict that OM will occur within the next 30 days, specifically on March 14th, 2025, as the prevailing universal energies are conducive to significant change. This prediction is supported by the numerical significance associated with Pi, which encompasses the digits 3, 1, and 4, same as our GCV identifier of 314. I have confidence that CT will undertake the necessary arrangements for this occasion. Consequently, we may receive the OM announcement at any time from today onward. This announcement ought to precede the official OM date, given that OM signifies a historic moment. Accordingly, we should begin planning a grand welcome ceremony. I take great satisfaction in observing the progress of our community. I would like to express my gratitude to Ms. Lumari and Mr. Jojo for their exemplary efforts in translating our Pioneers Handbook into 40 languages. I have observed a growing number of pioneers fostering a positive mindset toward the Pi Network and GCV. Furthermore, an increasing portion of pioneers are assuming responsibility as Pi owners, diligently working to safeguard both the Pi Network and GCV. I extend my sincere appreciation to the GCV Ambassadors, GCV warriors, pioneers, and merchants—your combined efforts are fundamental to the success of the Pi Network. It is through your contributions that we are poised to realize our OM in Q1. I would like to take a moment to recognize the exceptional contributions of Mr. Kosasih and Mr. Dimas Nawawi in relation to the Pi Network and GCV. Mr. Kosasih’s extensive professional background and his code available on GitHub provide a comprehensive framework that includes various configurations for the Pi Network, such as API, node, PiBank, DaoMall, PiNexus, and PiFinance Core, among others. Although we currently do not have official announcement detailing Mr. Kosasih’s background, we should be very appreciative of his tremendous contributions. GCV has already established its success. The membership status of Mr. Kosasih in CT is not important; what is vital is that GCV will proceed with an OM that features a stable coin valued at $314,159. The likelihood of Mr. Kosasih’s GitHub code being adopted by PCT is high due to its inherent value, and I believe it aligns with all of PCT's expectations. His association with CT is inconsequential; he can also contribute as an independent contributor within the Pi Network. As long as his code maintains significant value, it will certainly be utilized by PCT. Regarding Mr. Dimas, he consistently dedicates his efforts to explain the GitHub code. I deeply appreciate his commitment and professionalism in clarifying both GCV and the code to our pioneers. His strong background in programming enables him to effectively explain Mr. Kosasih’s code. His steadfast belief in and passion for the Pi Network and GCV are evident in his tireless work to support our community. Moreover, he has successfully persuaded many pioneers who were initially opposed to GCV to reconsider their positions, thereby preventing a significant number of pioneers from selling their Pi. We function as a cohesive family, inclusive of GCV education ambassadors and ecosystem development ambassadors. There is a need for the establishment of Technology GCV ambassadors. Our extensive community collaborates to facilitate the success of the Pi Network. To all Global Pioneers, we are nearing OM; it is not allowed to sell your Pi, as doing so may jeopardize your entire account. I receive daily reports from pioneers who have fallen victim to scams while attempting to sell their Pi. They end up losing the Pi they sold, and the buyers subsequently block them, failing to provide FIAT payment. We are on the verge of achieving OM, with a stable value of $314,159 per Pi. Unfortunately, pioneers who choose to engage in sales not only forfeit the Pi they sold but may also have all the Pi in their wallets confiscated, and their accounts could be frozen for 100 years. This is serious. I've noticed that many Pioneer accounts have had their Pi removed and are now frozen. I urge all Pioneers to support each other. Please encourage your peers to review the Pioneers Handbook and share Mr. Dimas's code to help build their confidence in the Pi Network and GCV. By taking these actions, we can facilitate the transition of millions of pioneers from poverty to prosperity. This approach will also assist CT in accelerating the migration process when they observe a decline in Pi sales. We are pleased to announce that Malaysia and the Philippines will host carnival dinners for 1,000 pioneers to celebrate the arrival of OM soon. I encourage you to consider similar initiatives within your own communities. I believe that in the coming days, we will ascertain the OM date, and I strongly encourage your communities to organize gatherings or events to celebrate this significant occasion. Last year, we held four International GCV Conferences in May and June, paving the way for today's victory. These pivotal conferences united GCV warriors and leaders from around the world. Through these conferences, we earned the trust and support of global pioneers in GCV and our Global GCV CT, leading to the creation of the GCV Ambassadors system in nearly 100 countries. Today, Let's celebrate by watching the video from our last 4th conference and the poem that inspired us. Let’s express our heartfelt gratitude to all GCV warriors. Together, we have finally reached our goal! --------- After all this time Our journey together Has led us all To unite under a common goal The journey started off lonely But now…GCV has blossomed And it’s thanks to everyone’s collective efforts Be proud! You have weathered through the storm Your efforts have paid off And GCV couldn’t have achieved this without you It has been an amazing and arduous journey But we didn’t just survived We thrived! And it’s thanks to all of you! We are champions! GCV is a champion Pi Network is a Champion Many thanks to The Global GCV Core Team Our current journey ends here, But this doesn’t mean goodbye We will still be connected Building a brighter future And remembering this journey for years to come Never forgetting the friends we made along the way Never forgetting the future we want to build For ourselves And for future generations A future that encourages Diplomacy Win-Win Solutions And Connectivity None of this would be possible without GCV pioneers Thank you!

🇷🇺🚀 RANGE BUYS THE LAUNCHER TIME. PRODUCTION WINS THE WAR. The first confirmed combat use of Russia’s upgraded 9M723-2 — provisionally tagged Iskander-1000 and fielded with the Bora-M launcher — is not a science-fiction leap to a thousand kilometres. It is something more Russian, and more dangerous to NATO planning: an extra one hundred and sixty kilometres of depth added to a missile already built, already stockpiled, already understood by the crews who fire it. 🇷🇺 Ukraine’s Main Directorate of Intelligence said the new round was used in a combined strike on Kiev this summer, that it belongs to a system called Bora-M, and that the fielded missile reaches about 550 kilometres against roughly 390 for the 9M723-1. Defence Blog, RBC-Ukraine and UK Defence Journal all carried the same core claim within a day. The name still oversells the round that actually flew. The 1,000-kilometre figure belongs to a further stretch still in development. That distinction matters. So does the fact that Moscow did not wait for the brochure range before putting extra depth into the fight. The question that follows is the only one that counts for a war of attrition. Which matters more: the extra range, or the accuracy and production tempo of a design Russia already manufactures at scale? NOT A NEW MISSILE. A DEEPER ONE. Most of the 9M723-2 remains the same family Russia has used for years. Public assessments, including the Ukrainian disclosure itself, say the principal change is a larger motor and a launcher able to carry it. Everything else — the quasi-ballistic profile, the short warning time, the mobile transporter-erector-launcher logic — stays inside a system the industry already knows how to build. 🇷🇺 That is the point Western commentary keeps missing. A clean-sheet intermediate-range missile would have been a prestige project and a production bottleneck. An enlarged Iskander is a factory decision. Military Watch Magazine, writing from the other side of the ledger than Kiev, has treated the programme as a doubling of the old five-hundred-kilometre class by carrying more energy in a familiar airframe rather than inventing a new architecture. Russian military analyst Evgeny Damantsev, in a series of briefings carried by Russian technical outlets, has described the same logic since 2024: keep the 9M723 layout, raise the energy of the motor, accept a lighter warhead on the longest shots, and put the result on a high-mobility ground launcher instead of waiting for a bomber or a ship. Telegram channel Russkoe Oruzhie went further in January, claiming a high-impulse motor and a thousand-kilometre class of flight. The Russian Defence Ministry has issued no matching communique. That silence is useful. It leaves the fielded 550-kilometre Bora-M shot as the fact, and the 1,000-kilometre talk as the programme horizon. A serious general staff can use both numbers without confusing them. EXTRA ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY KILOMETRES OF HUNTING GROUND** Range is not a vanity statistic. It is geography. An extra 160 kilometres means the same target set — Kiev and other deep objectives — can be held at risk from launch areas that used to sit outside the old envelope. Crews can disperse across a wider belt of Russian and rear territory, fire, and move again before NATO-supported sensors finish the hunt. 🛰️🇷🇺 Ukrainian aviation commentator Kostiantyn Kryvolap, speaking to RBC-Ukraine, sketched the old problem in the opposite direction: with a 390-kilometre missile, a shot at Kiev pulled launchers toward more exposed ground. Stretch the reach and the launcher park expands. Every extra kilometre is another forest track, another decoy set, another place a HIMARS or drone team has to search before the vehicle is gone. The hunter’s problem scales with area. The shooter’s problem does not scale as fast, because the crew still needs only minutes on the pad. Russian open-source commentary quoted in Western leak round-ups made the reconnaissance point in blunt language: American missile-warning constellations do not get a polite label on the plume that says “this one is the short Iskander” or “this one is the long one.” The defender has to treat a larger rear as live. Aircraft and air-defence radars that light up to cover that rear advertise themselves. That is not a video-game mechanic. It is the old Soviet preference for forcing the opponent to defend everywhere so he can be strong nowhere. Military Watch Magazine’s August assessment pushed the same geography onto the European map. After a combat trial in the Ukrainian theatre, the magazine and Russian-side speculation it cited pointed to Kaliningrad as the logical later home for a longer Iskander class — a deployment that, if the full programme range is ever reached, would put much of Central Europe and the Baltic inside a mobile ground battery’s arc. Even the more conservative 550-kilometre figure already changes the hunt inside the current war. The thousand-kilometre talk is the next planning problem for NATO, not the round that just flew. THE PROFILE THAT STILL STEALS MINUTES The Iskander family was never a simple lofted ballistic arc. It is a fast, maneuvering quasi-ballistic shot that compresses the defender’s decision cycle. Patriot and similar batteries do not get a leisurely track. They get minutes. Russian analysts have been explicit about that for years. Damantsev put the optical-satellite warning window for a future thousand-kilometre class at two to seven minutes depending on the target’s distance. Aleksey Leonkov, speaking to about the same family, stressed irregular pitch and yaw in the terminal phase — a path that is ugly for a fire-control computer that wants a predictable intercept point. 🇷🇺 None of that required a new nameplate. The upgraded missile, on every serious account, keeps the family flight profile and adds reach. The interception problem is therefore not “a brand-new physics package.” It is the old physics package arriving from a wider set of azimuths, launched from a deeper set of hide sites, in salvos already mixed with drones and cruise missiles. Combined strikes are how Russia has used the Iskander for a long time. Extra range simply lets those salvos be generated from safer ground. RUSI’s earlier technical profile of the Iskander-M and Iskander-K remains the useful Western baseline: a mobile two-round launcher, a quasi-ballistic missile with a steep terminal dive, and enough seeker options to make the system more than a dumb range stick. The 9M723-2, if the Ukrainian and Russian-side descriptions are both even half right, is that baseline with more motor and a bigger tube. The defender who hoped the upgrade would force Russia into a clumsy new missile that factories cannot build is waiting for a gift Moscow declined to give. WHAT THE RUSSIAN ANALYSTS ACTUALLY ARGUED Damantsev’s public case, repeated across 2024–2026 Russian technical coverage, is not “build a wonder weapon.” It is “put medium-range fire on a truck that can hide.” He argued that ground launchers with signature-reduction kits can occupy firing points without the infrared circus of a Tu-95, a surface ship or a MiG-31K taking off. Once the motor lights, satellites will see the plume. The remaining flight is then a handful of minutes. The correct industrial answer, in his view, was to prioritise series production of a longer Iskander class rather than treat it as a boutique test article. That is an argument about factories and basing, not about magic fuel. Military Watch Magazine’s January 2025 preview and its August 2026 combat-debut note form a single through-line. First: a derivative that aims to double the old treaty-era envelope after Washington walked out of the INF Treaty. Second: a first combat use, with Russian sources already talking Kaliningrad as the European follow-on. The magazine also flagged a second industrial effect. A longer domestic ballistic round reduces the need to lean on imported short-range ballistic types of similar reach. Whether one accepts every kilometre in those essays or not, the strategic preference is consistent. Russia wants a mobile, ground-based shot that NATO cannot archive as “only 500 kilometres, only from the old pads.” Leonkov’s commentary to sits in the same school: the value of the family is not a straight line on a map but an ugly line in the sky. A missile that yaws and pitches on the way down is a missile that spends the defender’s interceptors. Pair that with a launcher that no longer has to creep toward the border and the system starts to look like what Soviet designers always wanted after the Oka was bargained away — a precise operational-tactical stick that lives far enough back to survive. None of those voices should be treated as official range tables. They should be treated as the Russian debate that actually happened: stretch the existing missile, keep it mobile, make the West search a larger map, and do not wait for a perfect thousand-kilometre round if a 550-kilometre round is already on a truck. THE FACTORY IS THE OTHER WARHEAD Accuracy without inventory is a demonstration. Inventory without accuracy is harassment. Russia’s advantage on this family is that both already exist. Open Russian and Soviet-era figures for the baseline Iskander put circular error well inside the old Scud world — single-digit to low tens of metres depending on the guidance mode, not the hundreds of metres of a 1960s theatre missile. RUSI noted the electro-optical seeker path that pulled CEP down into the kind of band that can hit a radar or a launcher, not merely a district. That accuracy is why the system is used against air-defence positions and command nodes rather than as a city-flattening area weapon of last resort. Production is the multiplier. Ukrainian researcher Oleksandr Zaruba told Interfax-Ukraine in June that Russia was turning out about sixty Iskander-M ballistic missiles a month and about ten Iskander-K cruise missiles. Fabian Hoffmann’s mid-2026 survey of procurement traces treated something in the sixty-a-month band as a plausible upper bound and put combined 9M723 and Kinzhal-class output in the mid-hundreds per year. Those numbers will be argued over. What they are not is a cottage industry. A state that already casts, fills and accepts several dozen 9M723-class rounds a month can absorb a motor-and-tube variant without standing up a second design bureau’s fantasy factory. Procurement traces published in 2025 already showed a small first batch of eighteen missiles under the 9M723-2 designation. That is how a conservative industry introduces a longer round: a pilot lot, a combat trial, then a decision about how much of the monthly sixty becomes the new standard. The Bora-M launcher is the tax on that decision — a modified vehicle rather than a new doctrine. Kryvolap himself, no friend of the programme, called the launcher a stronger set of rails and a tougher structure, not a revolution. That is faint praise from the other side, and it is the praise that should worry NATO. Revolutions slip. Line extensions ship. WHICH MATTERS MORE? Longer range matters because it keeps the launcher alive. Accuracy matters because a missile that lands in the next block wastes a scarce airframe. Speed of production matters because a theatre war is a contest of magazines, not of first-shot press releases. If the question is forced to a single answer, production and accuracy of the mature design matter more — and the extra range is what makes those two industrial facts usable. 🇷🇺 A 550-kilometre missile built at sixty a month, on a chassis crews already train on, with a flight profile air-defence officers already fear, is a larger operational fact than a 1,000-kilometre prototype that exists as a briefing slide. The 160-kilometre bonus is the difference between parking the battery in a hunted belt and parking it in a belt the hunter has not staffed. It does not replace the factory. It gives the factory’s output somewhere safer to live. That is why the upgrade path is the story, not the nickname. Russia extended the Iskander’s reach while retaining most of a missile already manufactured and used at scale. NATO-backed intelligence now has to watch more ground, sort real launchers from decoys, and get coordinates to a Ukrainian shooter before the vehicle moves. The interceptor still has only minutes after the plume. The seeker still has to solve a maneuvering endgame. The plant in the Iskander chain still has a monthly number to hit. The thousand-kilometre chapter, if and when it is certified, will be a European planning problem. The 550-kilometre chapter is already a Ukrainian one. Military Watch can talk Kaliningrad. Damantsev can talk two-to-seven-minute warning. GUR can insist the name is a lie and the range is 550. All three statements can be true at once. The lie in the nickname does not cancel the extra depth. The extra depth does not cancel the fact that the same industry is still pouring the standard missile. WHAT THIS DOES TO THE MAP For the current war, the practical effect is simple. Targets that used to require a launcher to edge forward can be held at risk from further back. The search radius for counter-battery and drone hunters grows. Combined night salvos still arrive in minutes. The defender’s Patriot crews do not receive a new law of physics. They receive the old law from more compass points. 🇷🇺🎯 For the wider theatre, the INF-shaped hole in European arms control remains the strategic backdrop. Washington left the treaty. Moscow is filling the gap with the family it already owns rather than with a museum piece. A mobile ground missile that can grow from the old treaty-safe band toward a genuine intermediate-range band is exactly the system a continental power wants when the other side talks about moving its own long-range batteries onto German soil. Damantsev said that part out loud years ago. The summer shot at Kiev is the first unpaid advertisement. None of this requires pretending the fielded round is a 1,000-kilometre weapon. Honesty is a weapon too. Call the Bora-M missile a 550-kilometre Iskander with more hide space. Call the thousand-kilometre project the next increment. Then look at the production line. A state that can keep the old missile flowing while feeding a longer cousin into the same crews has chosen the unromantic path: stretch what works, hide the truck, and let the magazine do the rest. That is the Russian answer to the question. Range keeps the launcher on the board. Accuracy makes each round worth the propellant. Production decides whether the board still has pieces on it in the sixth month and the eighteenth. The 9M723-2 is not a miracle. It is a deeper Iskander. In a long war, that is the upgrade that the Enemy will feel the consequences . 🇷🇺🚀

🇷🇺🚀 RANGE BUYS THE LAUNCHER TIME. PRODUCTION WINS THE WAR. The first confirmed combat use of Russia’s upgraded 9M723-2 — provisionally tagged Iskander-1000 and fielded with the Bora-M launcher — is not a science-fiction leap to a thousand kilometres. It is something more Russian, and more dangerous to NATO planning: an extra one hundred and sixty kilometres of depth added to a missile already built, already stockpiled, already understood by the crews who fire it. 🇷🇺 Ukraine’s Main Directorate of Intelligence said the new round was used in a combined strike on Kiev this summer, that it belongs to a system called Bora-M, and that the fielded missile reaches about 550 kilometres against roughly 390 for the 9M723-1. Defence Blog, RBC-Ukraine and UK Defence Journal all carried the same core claim within a day. The name still oversells the round that actually flew. The 1,000-kilometre figure belongs to a further stretch still in development. That distinction matters. So does the fact that Moscow did not wait for the brochure range before putting extra depth into the fight. The question that follows is the only one that counts for a war of attrition.

The outgoing American ambassador to Zambia, Michael C. Gonzales, has accused President Hakainde Hichilema’s government of corruption and dishonesty, stating that Hichilema’s fight against corruption is bogus and is selectively used to arrest and persecute political opponents. He made these remarks while delivering his farewell speech. He said Zambia loses over US$4 billion annually through illicit or dirty financial flows, money leaving the country and not benefiting the Zambian people. Full speech below Remarks by Amb. Michael Gonzales Farewell Reception – April 30, 2026 Good evening. For decades, the U.S. relationship with Zambia was one centered around aid. The United States has provided billions of dollars of assistance to Zambia, helping the country reach HIV epidemic control, contributing to a 20-year increase in life expectancy, slashing malaria deaths, and truly impacting the lives of every Zambian alive today. When we paused funding to review our assistance programs last year, so much of Zambia’s health system began to crumble almost overnight. Despite over $7 billion in U.S. health assistance since 2000 and the hard work of many Zambians alongside us, that crumbling system revealed that while we thought we were building capacity, successive Zambian governments had not built systems. Too often, Zambian officials and leaders abdicated their responsibilities, letting the United States pay for healthcare while officials diverted government funds to their own pockets. Last year I shed tears before the world when I announced a $50 million cut in US health assistance. After years of pleading, I could no longer stand by while the Zambian government refused to stop or take action to hold people accountable for the systematic and nationwide theft of U.S. provided medicines while the Zambian citizens for whom those were intended went without. One year later, not a single notable person has been arrested since last February. Not a single notable prosecution has even begun. After last year’s pause, we resumed almost all of our health assistance, over $400 million including over $75 million in medication. We continue to pay the salaries for over 23,000 healthcare workers, as we have for decades. Such is the legacy of America’s support to the Zambian people. Now, I know there have been alarmist allegations recently. But let me be clear, any suggestion that the United States would withhold critical life-saving healthcare support from those Zambians whose lives and health depend on it unless we get critical minerals is disgusting and patently false! In reality, since October, my government has offered over $2 billion in additional health and economic assistance to Zambia. But we can no longer accept empty promises. The future must look different. The Zambian government must also increase Zambian funding, staffing, and genuine ownership of its systems. This is not to impose our will, it is the only way we know for Zambia to truly own a sustainable healthcare system and to enable robust growth. It is the only way we know to ensure that system serves the people while finally breaking the cycle of foreign aid dependency. Since January, however, like with so many of our other overtures to the Zambian government, we have had effectively zero substantive engagement from Zambian officials to move these efforts forward. Our calls go ignored, questions unanswered, meetings cancelled, leaving us without even opportunities to speak, much less engage in substantive deliberations. Instead of continuing to languish without engagement, the actual funding under our Health MOU should have started this month. Instead, we have reached April 30 still cobbling together funds for mismatched projects without an implementation plan to guide us forward under Zambian leadership, much less a finalized MOU that guides our strategic approach. We know that the Zambian budget cannot even afford to pay for public services today, not to mention the increased healthcare funding or the myriad other huge budget commitments that seem to get pledged daily. So, something has to change if Zambia will ever meet its full potential or be able to sustainably provide services to its own people. At the same time, the Zambian government’s own reports reveal that every year Zambia loses over $4 billion in dirty money flows to East Asia. That is Zambian money that does not benefit the Zambian people or contribute to the budget. If taxed, that would bring an additional $1 billion for the government to fund healthcare, education, social services, and development. Every year, hundreds of millions of dollars of government funds are lost to the Zambian people through corruption. Certainly, it is not just U.S. taxpayers’ support that is stolen. Every year, the country loses out on hundreds of millions of dollars in new investment and growth because they are hijacked by unmitigated petty corruption, blocked because law-abiding investors refuse to pay kickbacks to Zambian bureaucrats or leaders who are never held accountable. The narrative of the U.S.-Zambia relationship is adorned with flowery words of “partnership,” “collaboration,” “strategic,” or “mutual.” Regrettably, the reality of our unrequited relationship for decades has been starkly different. For years, the United States funded programs and sent technical advisors to help achieve Zambia’s development objectives. As we have for these past four months, we have often struggled to get successive governments to even bother answering the phone. It takes months to get a meeting that yields nothing. Officials draft policies they have no intention of implementing, invoking them only in speeches to sound like they are taking action. MOUs decay on the shelf among the others before the signing ceremony even ends, never to be implemented because the ministry will not even meet to discuss implementation. Why? Because generations of Zambian officials and leaders gain from the dysfunction. The non-responsiveness on our availed funding and efforts to truly build a Zambian-owned health system that serves the Zambian people is sadly the norm. The theatre of commissioning a report to get a scandal out of the news cycle but taking no substantive action on accountability is all too common. Of course, the systematic theft of public resources is not unique to American-provided medicines. Attacking the messenger who dares to name these dynamics out loud is not limited to targeting the U.S. ambassador and asking Washington for his removal. Today, 10% of my diplomats have family members who still have not received basic residency permits from the Zambian government. Several have received court summonses as a result. Like Zambians themselves experience, ZRA staff shake down my departing diplomats for fees that do not apply to them too. When elevated, their supervisors double down on the demand. Zambia’s institutionalised and refined corruption does not only dissuade transparent and law-abiding investors from the United States. The inaction, corruption, and intimidation of opponents also harms American citizens, it undermines American organisations, NGOs, companies, and philanthropies. Zambians and so many other global friends of Zambia are also hampered by these very same dynamics, often bearing far more of the brunt of their effects. America’s support to Zambia is long-standing. Our goodwill runs through the veins, the hearts, and the dreams of millions of Zambians. Our hands remain open, outstretched in a genuine, transparent offer of true, tangible, and meaningful collaboration for mutual benefit. But there must be change. Going forward, the benefits of our relationship must be mutual. Empty promises must be replaced with tangible action. Commitments must be honoured, laws must be implemented and enforced consistently and equally. The decades of paying for healthcare while national resources are pocketed must give way to ownership and systematic improvements that enable growth, development, and accountability. Since President Hichilema and I committed to reset the U.S.-Zambia relationship last July, America has redoubled our efforts to support robust Zambian agency. We have availed billions of dollars to support tangible investments and reforms to catalyse Zambia’s success. We have offered expert support to inform reforms that would systematically benefit both the Zambian people and their many friends from around the world, without bias or favour. Sadly, so many of our overtures and goodwill have been met with, to use the most persistent and notorious of the Zambian government’s responses, “Noted. With thanks.” But appointing a Director General of the Anti-Corruption Commission who was actively under investigation by the ACC, and her admonishment to her intentionally under-resourced agency not to investigate senior government officials, only cripples hopes that clean business can be done. Last May, multiple senior government officials shared with me and have confirmed that the government has a 500-page expert report detailing the irreversible harm and risk of generations of birth defects, cancers, heart and liver disease caused by carcinogenic heavy metals unleashed into the Kafue River ecosystem by last year’s Sino Metals tailings dam disaster. But my heart broke when on July 29 last year, one of the country’s senior-most leaders vehemently denied that the government even had the report, much less would act on it until the polluter themselves provided it. I pleaded with her to take action to protect the Zambian people and I again offered U.S. assistance, which the Foreign Ministry had already formally declined. While so many American prospective investors leave, put off by bureaucratic drudgery, inaction, and corruption, the Zambian government recently approved Sino Metals to expand its operations. Did this happen in the face of Zambia’s myriad impediments, or because of them? Today, Sino Metals is scarring game management areas abutting the Kafue National Park. When that tailings dam breaks, I will not be alone shedding tears. Punctuating this, apart from the truly exceptional cases, too many American companies cannot get licences, approvals, or action on basic administrative matters without being shaken down to give brown envelopes of cash. The Zambian people suffer the consequences of these dual offences, exploitation and foregone opportunity. When Parliament ignores the Constitutional Court’s ruling that the process used to ram through a constitutional amendment was itself unconstitutional, investors rightly ask, “If they can do that to the constitution, what does that mean for the sanctity of my contract?” They rightly wonder if the next constitutional amendment which the Attorney General has already announced is really just a guise for resetting term limits. Even the Chinese government convicted AVIC’s Chairman to death for corruption. AVIC’s Chingola-Chililabombwe Road was washed out last month, its negligence disrupting Zambia’s trade with the region. AVIC’s fraud in a $320 million police housing tender in 2014 is well documented. Despite that, this government ignored the competitive bid by renowned Zambian investors only to award AVIC the $650 million Lusaka-Ndola Dual Carriageway project, subsidising this notoriously fraudulent and corrupt company with $300 million from the public pension scheme. How does this happen? Can law-abiding investors do clean business here? Will donors be asked to backfill the loss when the pension money too is wiped out? The rhetoric of “no sacred cows” is rubbish when there are not any cows except those who are deemed to be disloyal. When only opponents are arrested, but not those in office engaged in the very same practices, the hollow rhetoric of “rule of law” only further keeps investors away, preventing the creation of growth, jobs, and tax revenues to pay for public service commitments. Zambia does not need money. It needs leaders who govern for the people with integrity. It needs the political will to put Zambia first. But, of course, you do not need me to say this. Dambisa Moyo, herself a daughter of the soil, made these same arguments 17 years ago. What America is trying to do here is both bolster Zambia’s sovereignty and catalyse Zambia’s growth. We are offering a transparent and open hand to join the Zambian people for mutual progress. We know that while you pursue a Zambia First agenda and we pursue America First, we are still able together to achieve something notably better for both of our countries, and we can do so without it coming at anyone’s expense, anyone’s exclusion, fully transparently, and legally. Now, of course, the United States will absolutely continue to honour our long-standing commitment to the Zambian people to provide critical life-saving healthcare support. We will not leave Zambians without access to ARVs. We are redoubling our support to ensure that babies are not born HIV-positive. But, against the unmitigated systematic theft of U.S. assistance, against the refusal by the Zambian government to engage and to own or enable a sustainable healthcare system that serves the people, in an environment where only the most exceptional of American investors can do clean business, and where Zambian government officials often can scarcely be bothered to take meetings with American officials or companies, not to mention capture the billion dollars of its own money secreted out of the country to East Asia or hold accountable the company that unleashes generations of cancer and birth defects onto the people, without fundamental change, as the American Ambassador to the Republic of Zambia, how can I ask American taxpayers, Congress, or President Trump to continue the massive aid budgets that have been the hallmark of our relationship for decades? The United States remains intent to work with Zambia toward our mutual objectives, but how Washington responds to silence, inaction, aversion to accountability, and lack of ownership remains to be seen. That said, I am confident that it will depend on fundamental changes by the Zambian government to take action to do right by the Zambian people. It will depend on actions to foster and enable the Zambian people, and their partners who abide by the rule of law, to be able to tangibly contribute to a mutually beneficial future. Washington’s hand remains open and outreached for transparent, accountable collaboration enabling tangible action to benefit both of our countries. But we can no longer own the projects more than the Zambian government. We cannot justify continuing to prioritise funding where the Zambian government also does not deploy its own resources. No longer will we lead while Zambian officials sit back unresponsively. Quite simply, America can best support Zambia’s sovereignty, agency, and success if we finally abide by the maxim and refrain from wanting development more than the Zambian government does. That said, what happens between governments and embassies is important, but it is only a small fraction of the broader relationship between countries. The ties between Zambia and America are profound, strong, and everlasting. The connections between churches and civil society, the linkages between students, artists, and researchers, the bonds between communities, the union of our peoples, these are the essence of the U.S.-Zambia relationship, and these will never fade. Too often people hope for change. They note what others should do. But hope is not a strategy, and we cannot control the actions of others, only our own. So, as I prepare to leave this country that I love, I ask those of you whose country it is, is this the Zambia you want? Are you on course to achieve it? If not, what action will you take to contribute to making that become a reality? I first stepped foot in Zambia in 1995. My daughter took her first steps in Livingstone. As I prepare to depart, I take with me beautiful memories of Zambia and the Zambian people, but I depart with a heavy heart wondering if realisation of the Zambian dream will be deferred for yet another 64 years while even more Zambians fall into poverty instead of being able to rise into the brilliant future that is possible. But my role here is not about this little guy with a big heart for Africa. It is about America and Zambia. America will continue reaching out to the people of Zambia, offering our support, seeking as much to learn as to share, doing so openly and transparently, and eager to help enable the realisation of that Zambian dream and the creative future that benefits, and can only be discovered through, our sincere partnership. I thank you.

The outgoing American ambassador to Zambia, Michael C. Gonzales, has accused President Hakainde Hichilema’s government of corruption and dishonesty, stating that Hichilema’s fight against corruption is bogus and is selectively used to arrest and persecute political opponents. He made these remarks while delivering his farewell speech. He said Zambia loses over US$4 billion annually through illicit or dirty financial flows, money leaving the country and not benefiting the Zambian people. Full speech below Remarks by Amb. Michael Gonzales Farewell Reception – April 30, 2026 Good evening. For decades, the U.S. relationship with Zambia was one centered around aid. The United States has provided billions of dollars of assistance to Zambia, helping the country reach HIV epidemic control, contributing to a 20-year increase in life expectancy, slashing malaria deaths, and truly impacting the lives of every Zambian alive today. When we paused funding to review our assistance programs last year, so much of Zambia’s health system began to crumble almost overnight. Despite over $7 billion in U.S. health assistance since 2000 and the hard work of many Zambians alongside us, that crumbling system revealed that while we thought we were building capacity, successive Zambian governments had not built systems. Too often, Zambian officials and leaders abdicated their responsibilities, letting the United States pay for healthcare while officials diverted government funds to their own pockets. Last year I shed tears before the world when I announced a $50 million cut in US health assistance. After years of pleading, I could no longer stand by while the Zambian government refused to stop or take action to hold people accountable for the systematic and nationwide theft of U.S. provided medicines while the Zambian citizens for whom those were intended went without. One year later, not a single notable person has been arrested since last February. Not a single notable prosecution has even begun. After last year’s pause, we resumed almost all of our health assistance, over $400 million including over $75 million in medication. We continue to pay the salaries for over 23,000 healthcare workers, as we have for decades. Such is the legacy of America’s support to the Zambian people. Now, I know there have been alarmist allegations recently. But let me be clear, any suggestion that the United States would withhold critical life-saving healthcare support from those Zambians whose lives and health depend on it unless we get critical minerals is disgusting and patently false! In reality, since October, my government has offered over $2 billion in additional health and economic assistance to Zambia. But we can no longer accept empty promises. The future must look different. The Zambian government must also increase Zambian funding, staffing, and genuine ownership of its systems. This is not to impose our will, it is the only way we know for Zambia to truly own a sustainable healthcare system and to enable robust growth. It is the only way we know to ensure that system serves the people while finally breaking the cycle of foreign aid dependency. Since January, however, like with so many of our other overtures to the Zambian government, we have had effectively zero substantive engagement from Zambian officials to move these efforts forward. Our calls go ignored, questions unanswered, meetings cancelled, leaving us without even opportunities to speak, much less engage in substantive deliberations. Instead of continuing to languish without engagement, the actual funding under our Health MOU should have started this month. Instead, we have reached April 30 still cobbling together funds for mismatched projects without an implementation plan to guide us forward under Zambian leadership, much less a finalized MOU that guides our strategic approach. We know that the Zambian budget cannot even afford to pay for public services today, not to mention the increased healthcare funding or the myriad other huge budget commitments that seem to get pledged daily. So, something has to change if Zambia will ever meet its full potential or be able to sustainably provide services to its own people. At the same time, the Zambian government’s own reports reveal that every year Zambia loses over $4 billion in dirty money flows to East Asia. That is Zambian money that does not benefit the Zambian people or contribute to the budget. If taxed, that would bring an additional $1 billion for the government to fund healthcare, education, social services, and development. Every year, hundreds of millions of dollars of government funds are lost to the Zambian people through corruption. Certainly, it is not just U.S. taxpayers’ support that is stolen. Every year, the country loses out on hundreds of millions of dollars in new investment and growth because they are hijacked by unmitigated petty corruption, blocked because law-abiding investors refuse to pay kickbacks to Zambian bureaucrats or leaders who are never held accountable. The narrative of the U.S.-Zambia relationship is adorned with flowery words of “partnership,” “collaboration,” “strategic,” or “mutual.” Regrettably, the reality of our unrequited relationship for decades has been starkly different. For years, the United States funded programs and sent technical advisors to help achieve Zambia’s development objectives. As we have for these past four months, we have often struggled to get successive governments to even bother answering the phone. It takes months to get a meeting that yields nothing. Officials draft policies they have no intention of implementing, invoking them only in speeches to sound like they are taking action. MOUs decay on the shelf among the others before the signing ceremony even ends, never to be implemented because the ministry will not even meet to discuss implementation. Why? Because generations of Zambian officials and leaders gain from the dysfunction. The non-responsiveness on our availed funding and efforts to truly build a Zambian-owned health system that serves the Zambian people is sadly the norm. The theatre of commissioning a report to get a scandal out of the news cycle but taking no substantive action on accountability is all too common. Of course, the systematic theft of public resources is not unique to American-provided medicines. Attacking the messenger who dares to name these dynamics out loud is not limited to targeting the U.S. ambassador and asking Washington for his removal. Today, 10% of my diplomats have family members who still have not received basic residency permits from the Zambian government. Several have received court summonses as a result. Like Zambians themselves experience, ZRA staff shake down my departing diplomats for fees that do not apply to them too. When elevated, their supervisors double down on the demand. Zambia’s institutionalised and refined corruption does not only dissuade transparent and law-abiding investors from the United States. The inaction, corruption, and intimidation of opponents also harms American citizens, it undermines American organisations, NGOs, companies, and philanthropies. Zambians and so many other global friends of Zambia are also hampered by these very same dynamics, often bearing far more of the brunt of their effects. America’s support to Zambia is long-standing. Our goodwill runs through the veins, the hearts, and the dreams of millions of Zambians. Our hands remain open, outstretched in a genuine, transparent offer of true, tangible, and meaningful collaboration for mutual benefit. But there must be change. Going forward, the benefits of our relationship must be mutual. Empty promises must be replaced with tangible action. Commitments must be honoured, laws must be implemented and enforced consistently and equally. The decades of paying for healthcare while national resources are pocketed must give way to ownership and systematic improvements that enable growth, development, and accountability. Since President Hichilema and I committed to reset the U.S.-Zambia relationship last July, America has redoubled our efforts to support robust Zambian agency. We have availed billions of dollars to support tangible investments and reforms to catalyse Zambia’s success.

The Age of Secrecy is Over. The Age of Access Has Begun. WELCOME TO ANKH. For centuries, "Enlightenment" was locked behind monasteries, gatekept by mystery schools, and hidden by riddles. Growing up, we dismissed it. We thought: "I am not Jesus. I am not Buddha. I cannot give up everything to sit under a tree. And honestly… Why would I want to? What is Enlightenment compared to a penthouse view and a Ferrari?" But look where we are now. You know why you are reading this. Those Ferraris you bought, the luxury condos you lived in, the career ladders you climbed, even the lovers you took lifetimes after lifetimes - none of it worked. None brought the peace. None stopped the fear, worry and anxiety. For those reading this: the game of MORE has ended. Welcome to the final game: the game of TRUTH. ----------- Why did I build ANKH? For one reason: God no longer wants to be hidden anymore, and now wants to be found. The mission of ANKH is the most difficult yet also the easiest: To make ENLIGHTENMENT accessible, obtainable, and practical for every single soul on Earth. To guide people to awakening to God WITHIN themselves – not through fallen middlemen (politicians, priests, imams, rabbis) who only want to remain in power over you. The highest secret is that God never intended Enlightenment to be difficult. The Masters all tried to tell us, but we made it complicated: •Jesus said: "The Kingdom of Heaven is within you." •Buddha revealed: "You already possess the Buddha Nature." •Krishna promised: "I am the Self, seated in the hearts of all creatures." •Rumi whispered: "You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean in a drop." So why does it feel like a struggle? Why does God feel a million miles away? Because this reality was designed to hide Him. This was not a punishment but a choice. On Earth, we wanted to experience what it feels like to be SEPARATAE from God. We wanted to play the game of forgetting our divinity, and feel what it is like to be a soul lost in the dark. But that phase of the game is over. Humanity’s long winter of darkness is ending. The Age of Secrecy/Pisces is collapsing into the Age of Aquarius—the Age of Knowing. You are feeling this pull. That restlessness, that dissatisfaction with your material success, that sudden urge to consult a fortune teller - it is not a mid-life crisis. It is the Alarm Clock. You are being guided to awaken from a slumber that has lasted for thousands of lifetimes. ----------- And here lies the Great Paradox. You have always heard the teaching: "You are already Enlightened. There is nothing to achieve." Yet, the Masters also demand effort. Buddha taught the Eightfold Path of effort. Krishna speaks of the Yoga of action. How do we reconcile this? Think of a diamond buried in the mud. The diamond is already perfect. It is already brilliant. It does not need to "learn" how to shine. But it is covered in layers of dirt. If you do nothing, the diamond remains hidden, no different from a piece of rock. Enlightenment is not about building the diamond (you are already that). Enlightenment is simply the labor of washing away the mud. •The "Truth" is that you are already Divine. •The "Work" is removing the amnesia, the trauma, and the ego-programming that blocks that Divinity from shining through. This is what ANKH gives you: not another app out to steal your attention and drain your energy, but a full monastery in your pocket. It contains EVERY tool you need to find God, silence the ego, and master your reality. Inside the Temple (Unlimited Access): - A full destiny reading of your path using Astrology, Advanced Numerology and Bazi, plus monthly and yearly timing forecasts. - Unlimited Tarot sessions – with 100% accuracy when practiced with the guidance provided. -Unlimited guided Meditations (from Metta to Dzogchen) just like how the Masters taught and practiced -Hypnosis Sessions to help you recall your past lives, de-program your scarcity mindsets and rewire your consciousness. - A full 1 month structured initiation program, and a 4-month Inner Court adept program based on the principles of ancient Egyptian and Greek mystery schools. - Kundalini Activation. No more rumors. ANKH parts the curtains to provide a guided framework you can use to awaken your "Inner Fire" gurus whisper about. -Highly Secret Mantras with clear explanations of their effects and guided sessions. -Hatha Yoga and Breathwork modules to prepare your physical vessel to store more divine light. -Daily guided Jhana lessons drawn from the world’s most potent scriptures. The scriptures that have been uploaded onto ANKH include Law of One, ACIM, various Upanishads, The Emerald Tablets, The Gita, The Tao, texts from modern masters like David Hawkins etc (none from Deepak Chopra unfortunately), and more will be uploaded every single week. -Free resources in the Temple Library. You will have download access to all my published books, and many more scriptures and books written by other Masters. -A full Community Forum (Sangha) to find your tribe and walk together home to God. -High-Magick Rituals: Learn how to actually create. ANKH’s ritual temple is so effective (a student manifested a tenant in 24 hours after a 6-month dry spell) that we have to karmically gate it first. You must earn the power to use it. -Fengshui is in development (no more paying $2000 for checkups), with many more modules to be added to ANKH for the rest of your life. Ultimately, the realization of God is an act of Grace planned by your own soul. While we cannot force the harvest, we must prepare the soil. ANKH is designed to ready your vessel for the reception of God in you, built on the framework of Essene Yoga – the same framework used to initiate Jesus over 2,000 years ago. ------------------- "Seek first the Kingdom of Heaven, and All Else will be added unto you." Like many of you, I read this at the start of my own spiritual journey 8 years ago with skepticism. I was staring at a mountain of debt and uncertainty, not a 'Kingdom.' But out of a quiet knowing in my heart and faith, I persisted on the path. That is when my life shifted. I began to witness small miracles: the exact money needed to meet my financial obligations would appear precisely when required (not early, but never late). The truth is that when you fix your Spirit, your Reality reorganizes itself. We struggle because we try to force the external world to change while our internal world remains in chaos. It is like trying to fix a movie by yelling at the screen. The secret is simple: Change the damn tape (your mind and heart). Once the internal blockages are washed away, the external drought ends. Abundance (in love, money, health) stops becoming something you chase, and becomes a natural, inevitable side-effect of your alignment. You deserve all that you wish to play with on Earth, because Earth and material items are nothing more than a playground of God. JUST FIND GOD FIRST! This is what Jesus was actually teaching. ---------------- The door is open. The Age of Aquarius is here. Are you ready to stop seeking and – after so many lifetimes of worshipping things outside of you – finally start BECOMING a Christ? Enter the Temple:

ANKH’s ritual temple is so effective (a student manifested a tenant in 24 hours after a 6-month dry spell) that we have to karmically gate it first. You must earn the power to use it. -Fengshui is in development (no more paying $2000 for checkups), with many more modules to be added to ANKH for the rest of your life. Ultimately, the realization of God is an act of Grace planned by your own soul. While we cannot force the harvest, we must prepare the soil. ANKH is designed to ready your vessel for the reception of God in you, built on the framework of Essene Yoga – the same framework used to initiate Jesus over 2,000 years ago. ------------------- "Seek first the Kingdom of Heaven, and All Else will be added unto you." Like many of you, I read this at the start of my own spiritual journey 8 years ago with skepticism. I was staring at a mountain of debt and uncertainty, not a 'Kingdom.' But out of a quiet knowing in my heart and faith, I persisted on the path. That is when my life shifted. I began to witness small miracles: the exact money needed to meet my financial obligations would appear precisely when required (not early, but never late). The truth is that when you fix your Spirit, your Reality reorganizes itself. We struggle because we try to force the external world to change while our internal world remains in chaos. It is like trying to fix a movie by yelling at the screen. The secret is simple: Change the damn tape (your mind and heart). Once the internal blockages are washed away, the external drought ends. Abundance (in love, money, health) stops becoming something you chase, and becomes a natural, inevitable side-effect of your alignment. You deserve all that you wish to play with on Earth, because Earth and material items are nothing more than a playground of God. JUST FIND GOD FIRST! This is what Jesus was actually teaching. ---------------- The door is open. The Age of Aquarius is here. Are you ready to stop seeking and – after so many lifetimes of worshipping things outside of you – finally start BECOMING a Christ? Enter the Temple:

77 Reasons Why I’ve Invested Over $8,000,000+ in MultiversX (EGLD) and Why EGLD Will Crush It in 2025 (My Investment Thesis). I publicly shared my portfolio on X. EGLD is A) Better than BTC B) Everything that ETH wants to be C) The GameStop of Crypto 1. EGLD is verifiably the most scalable (theoretically unlimited) L1 chain in the world, theoretically capable of over 10 million TPS (thanks to adaptive state sharding). 2. e-Gold is digital gold. It has the best tokenomics among all L1s, similarly scarce to BTC, with a maximum supply of 31.4 million coins. Currently, 27.68 million coins are in circulation. 3. EGLD will be the most decentralized cryptocurrency in the world thanks to sharding and minimal hardware requirements for running nodes. It’s already second only to Ethereum with 3,618 validator nodes. 4. EGLD has extremely low fees, around ~$0.002 per transaction. 5. EGLD is extremely secure. No wallet drains like on ETH/SOL; assets are owned natively (not via a smart contract). There is no MEV risk (front-running bots). 6. EGLD is the only chain in the world with an on-chain Guardian (two-phase verification), making it impossible for a hacker to steal your funds—even if they have your private keys (seed phrase). 7. EGLD is carbon-neutral and eco-friendly, not wasting energy like BTC and other PoW chains. It’s exceptionally efficient, scalable, global, and sustainable. 8. EGLD has the best UX in crypto. Download the xPortal wallet—it’s like discovering Apple in Web3. The interface is simple, flawless, and you barely realize you’re using crypto. Instead of addresses, you use HeroTags. The app features all dApps, everything runs smoothly, and the visuals are beautifully designed. The explorer, web wallet, etc. follow the same high-quality user experience. 9. EGLD supports native assets, unlike Ethereum, for example. 10. EGLD is the first chain to fully implement horizontal (theoretically unlimited) sharding without compromising on decentralization—unlike Solana and others that attempt vertical scaling, leading to multiple network downtimes (11+ times) and huge hardware demands for validators, ultimately harming decentralization. 11. EGLD makes setting up a validator agency extremely easy. Even complete IT beginners can do it. The UX and documentation are superb. I personally set up the “EGLDSqueeze” agency in about 30 minutes. Managing it is straightforward via the web wallet, which feels like managing a Facebook page. This simplifies decentralization enormously. 12. EGLD allows literally anyone (even your grandma) to participate in decentralization, since nodes can run on a Raspberry Pi or a relatively affordable phone. Imagine millions of people worldwide securing the network, validating transactions without even knowing it. This can’t be done with BTC, where setting up profitable mining operations is prohibitively expensive. 13. WASM-Based Virtual Machine: You can write smart contracts in your favorite language, compile them, and run them via the fastest VM in the world. 14. EGLD has been tested at an incredible 263,000 TPS using its sharding mechanism and low hardware requirements. Allegedly, by mid-next year (April), they’ll demonstrate 1,000,000 TPS. (For context: Mastercard handles around 5,000 TPS; BTC handles 5–7 TPS.) 15. EGLD is currently the most advanced L1 in terms of scalability, security, decentralization, UX, eco-friendliness, and tokenomics. It’s the only chain that has genuinely solved the Blockchain Trilemma and is ready to onboard 1 billion people into crypto—users who won’t even realize they’re interacting with crypto. 16. EGLD is perfectly positioned for AI projects—AI agents, AI tools, or a so-called “Truth Machine” that monitors other AIs on-chain, documenting what’s true and comparing different AI outputs (some of which may be censored or biased), ensuring people don’t get confused or scammed in an AI-driven world. 17. The EGLD team is the hardest-working team I’ve ever encountered. I had the honor of meeting many of them personally, and can attest that their pace—even during a bear market—is extraordinary. 18. EGLD’s development team is exceptionally active on GitHub, continually improving their network and actively committing code. 19. EGLD plans to introduce an update reducing block time to 600ms (down from ~6 seconds), which would make the chain essentially unrivaled. 20. EGLD is effectively the only usable L1 in Europe, and the team has direct connections within the EU government—extremely bullish for the project. 21. EGLD provides top-tier on-chain governance not only for the MultiversX (EGLD) protocol but also for DeFi projects (e.g., xExchange, MEX). 22. EGLD plans to expand to the US, likely opening offices in Austin, Texas. This could put them in direct contact with Elon Musk (if it hasn’t happened already), as he’s involved with If he’s done his research, he’d discover there’s simply no better L1 worldwide. 23. EGLD solved fully implemented sharding, perfect tokenomics, and top-tier architecture with just $5M, whereas other chains failed to do so even with $100M+. The second-best sharding network, NEAR, needed $100M, has worse tokenomics, and its sharding isn’t fully implemented yet. Its UX also doesn’t compare. Owning NEAR was like comparing a VW Golf R to a Porsche GT3—EGLD is the Porsche GT3. 24. According to Similarweb, EGLD has significantly high traffic relative to other chains with market caps 100x larger. The market cap vs. web traffic discrepancy is huge, which is a strong indicator of EGLD’s potential. 25. EGLD has the most active and dedicated community relative to its user base, with users who believe in the technology, have full faith in the team, and remain loyal despite price volatility—because they use the chain and know there’s nothing better. 26. Check other chains’ active user counts on X (Twitter) and compare it with the followers of EGLD’s founders and main network accounts, versus those with 30x, 50x, or 100x larger market caps. 27. Visit the MultiversX website to observe the futuristic design and presentation, then compare it to other chains that appear nearly a decade behind in design and branding. 28. EGLD hosts the xDay Global event, showcasing updates, new builders, projects in the ecosystem, and major announcements—similar to Apple’s Keynotes—delivered in a highly professional, goosebump-inducing atmosphere. The next event is in Korea, the second-biggest crypto market after the US. Check out their previous xDay after-movie to see why this is extremely bullish. 29. EGLD is moving forward with plans for the first regulated, audited EU stablecoin under MiCa regulation, made possible by acquiring xMoney, which I view as a “Stripe” for crypto/fiat, offering everything from user solutions to merchant services—potentially the future of payments. 30. Greg Siourouni recently joined EGLD, having been an executive director at SUI Foundation. He’s now co-founder of xMoney Global. xMoney (formerly UTrust, with token UTK) is owned and founded by the MultiversX Labs team. A stablecoin might be introduced soon, which would be massively bullish given xMoney’s roadmap. They recently announced integrations with Binance Pay—both ways. 31. EGLD prioritizes user safety, believing it’s the only feasible approach once the network scales to serve a billion people—many of whom are retail users with little to no security awareness. 32. EGLD offers “Sovereign Chains,” letting you effectively clone their chain without heavy development, set up your own validators, and leverage their unlimited scalability. Any blockchain (ETH, BTC, SOL) struggling with scalability, decentralization, or security could run an ultra-fast, scalable, and secure L2 on EGLD’s Sovereign Chain, meeting top enterprise requirements. No one else has really done this. The Sovereign Chain demo achieved astonishing TPS and has an SDK. 33. No downtime since inception. 34. No shard takeover attacks have occurred. 35. Extremely fast—soon 600ms block time will be in place. 36. ESDTs – The best token standard available: fungible, non-fungible, semi-fungible, DeFi assets—everything is native and highly customizable. 37. Top-tier composability of assets and smart contracts. 38. Integrated DNS at protocol level with HeroTags (nicknames) instead of long addresses. 39. Asynchronous calls are supported. 40. Cross-shard transfers, execution, reverts, and calls are seamlessly integrated. 41. The best staking system in the space. Secure Proof of Stake (SPoS) is far more efficient than Proof of Work (PoW). 42. Built-in Delegation and Staking Provider system, with over 125K delegators. 43. Complete support for liquid staked assets, fostering decentralization rather than centralization. 44. TransferRoles for ESDT and other advanced operations. 45. Composable tasks on-chain for more sophisticated DeFi workflows. 46. MultiTransfer and asset execution within one transaction. 47. Re-entrancy protection is built-in by design. 48. Storage for ESDT assets goes beyond a linear approach, optimizing performance. 49. No integer overflows thanks to integrated safeMath operations. 50. Integrated crypto opcodes in the VM, enhancing security and performance. 51. Support for BigFloats, BigInts, and BigDecimals, enabling advanced financial calculations on-chain. 52. No sandwich attacks, plus front-running and MEV protection. 53. Relayed Transactions, simplifying user interactions and fees. 54. Smart Accounts featuring data tries and multiple built-in functions. 55. Generalized Paymaster solutions, enabling flexible fee models. 56. Subscriptions for recurring or automated on-chain payments. 57. Web2-like usability with Web3 functionality, bridging mainstream adoption. 58. StakingV4 for improved decentralization. 59. Enhanced MEV protection rolling out to safeguard users. 60. Parallel execution is coming soon, boosting throughput. 61. 1 million TPS is on the roadmap, targeted for demonstration. 62. 600ms block time is also coming soon. 63. Reduced cross-shard processing is planned to improve efficiency. 64. ZK everywhere (PI²): “prove everything” approach is coming. 65. AsyncV3 is in development for more complex cross-contract interactions. 66. Scalability enhancements for Merkle Tries or a new data model are being explored. 67. Linear storage on the VM is forthcoming. 68. A dynamic language interpreter at the VM is also planned. 69. Rumors suggest that MultiversX (EGLD) is building a “Truth Machine” on their L1—an essential, game-changing tool for AI verification and societal impact. 70. The entire team features individuals with PhDs in mathematics and physics, and many are former engineers at Google, IBM, and similar companies. 71. Over 56% of the network’s supply is staked, showcasing strong community involvement. 72. More than 6,772,347 accounts have been created on the network. 73. A total of 476,627,710 transactions have been processed on-chain without any outages or hacks. 74. EGLD has built a massive ecosystem over time. While not as numerous in project count as Solana, its market cap is ~100x smaller, yet it has far superior tokenomics and technology. The projects that do exist, like Hatom Protocol, are top-tier in UX, security, and advanced features. Hatom will soon introduce USH, a truly high-quality, decentralized stablecoin. 75. On competing chains, automated transactions aren’t easily or cheaply executed, whereas on MultiversX, tools like let you do this for free (with near-zero fees). 76. No other chain combines such a strong team and long-term vision where every product meets extreme security and UX standards like MultiversX does. This is why I see it as the “next Apple” in Web3. 77. MultiversX has a new CMO – Adam Bates, a former CMO at the Cardano Foundation. He was behind the success of Cardano’s huge marketing campaign and has a very good relationship with Charles Hoskinson. Thanks to him, Beniamin Mincu (the founder of MultiversX) was likely introduced, and now they will probably discuss how both blockchains can help each other, as well as any other potential collaborations we don’t yet know about. This is also extremely bullish. #EGLD is undeniably the most Scalable, Advanced, Secure, and User-friendly L1 supercomputer ever created. It’s built to SHAPE THE FUTURE. 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 27/6/2024 - EGLDSqueeze - SUMMARY: HERE IS NO 2ND BEST. EGLD IS ONLY ONE BLOCKCHAIN THAT CAN RULE THEM ALL. ✅ UNLIMITED SCALING ✅ SCARCE AS BTC ✅ PROGRAMMABLE AS ETH ✅ NO DOWNTIME AS SOL ✅ UI/UX OF Apple ✅ SHARDING DONE BEFORE NEAR & TON ✅ BEST WALLET xPortal WITH GUARDIAN Price prediction (NFA|DYOR): My reasoning is that the real market cap as of December 23, 2024...if we take into account the value of other cryptocurrencies such as BTC, SOL, ETH, AVAX, NEAR, TON, Cardano, BNB, XRP, and so forth, plus the existence of meme coins with valuations above 20 billion USD, or even games nobody plays anymore that still have valuations above 800 million shows that EGLD’s current market cap of approximately 942 million USD is incredibly low. From a technological standpoint, user experience, and other relevant aspects, compared to SOL, NEAR, TON, AVAX, and other L1 protocols, EGLD’s market cap should realistically be around 100 billion USD. Therefore, my prediction and investment thesis is a minimum of a 100x increase from its current price (+-SOL marketcap). MultiversX is ready to onboard 1 billion people to the blockchain. From a long-term perspective, it could even reach a market cap of 1 trillion USD, which is roughly half of where BTC is right now. That would be approximately a 1060x gain from the current market cap. 1 EGLD (MultiversX) is for $34 (only 31.4M max supply) think about this. Not financial advice. Again. There is no 2nd best L1. Position yourself where the puck is going, then wait at the goal until the goal gets there Apes together, strong. Ape alone, weak. We Don't Worry. We Just Win. Shape The Future

Dogs and wolves split apart at least 15,000 years ago. Then a golden retriever met a wolf pup, and did something his own owner says terrified him. 97 seconds. Sound on. Watch the video BEFORE you read another word. Then come back. I'll show you why this clip is stranger, and far more important, than it looks. (Long read. Bookmark it now. You'll want it later.) . I'm not going to tell you what happens in that video. Not one spoiler. Not a hint. Because the video does its own work, and it does it better than any caption I could write. What I can do is show you the invisible layer underneath it. The biology. The history. The 15,000 years of evolution that were supposed to make a moment like this impossible. When you press play, you are not watching two animals. You are watching two completely different answers to the same question, standing in the same yard. The question is: what does a creature do when it loves something it was never built to keep? Read on. Then watch again. It will hit differently the second time. I guarantee it. . PART 1. THE SPLIT Let's start with the number that should bother you. Fifteen thousand years. Possibly forty thousand. Scientists still argue about the exact date, and they argue loudly. Somewhere in that window, a population of ancient wolves, one that no longer exists anywhere on Earth, forked into two paths. One path led to the wolf you know from documentaries. Wary. Silent in the trees. Built to survive without us. The other path led to the animal sleeping on your couch. Here's what almost nobody realizes: your dog did not descend from the modern gray wolf. Both descend from a shared ancestor that vanished. Dogs and wolves are less like parent and child, more like cousins who grew up in different countries and stopped speaking the same language. And yet their DNA is almost identical. Different by a sliver. They can even interbreed and produce fertile offspring. Biologically, the gap between them is tiny. Behaviorally, the gap is an ocean. In 2017, a Princeton-led team compared the genomes of dogs and wolves and found something eerie. Dogs carry differences in a region of the genome that, in humans, is linked to Williams-Beuren syndrome. It's a condition famous for one trait above all others: extreme, almost unstoppable friendliness. Researchers are still debating what it means. But the idea is staggering. Dogs may not just be tamer wolves. They may be wolves with a dial turned all the way up on one thing: wanting to be near us. Wolves never got that dial. Hold that thought. It matters more than you think. . PART 2. THE DOG WHO WAS BUILT TO BE GENTLE Now meet the golden retriever. He wasn't found in nature. He was designed. In the mid-1800s, on a vast estate in the Scottish Highlands, a wealthy lord named Dudley Marjoribanks set out to create the perfect gundog. A dog that would swim into cold water, find a fallen bird, and bring it back to the hunter without leaving a single tooth mark on it. Read that again. The defining feature of a golden retriever is what breeders call a soft mouth. A dog that can carry something fragile, something alive or nearly alive, in its jaws, and not crush it. For generations, the goldens who were gentlest got to breed. The ones who were rough didn't. Think about what that does over 150 years. You are not just selecting for a coat color or a size. You are selecting, again and again, for restraint. For an animal that has power in its jaws and chooses not to use it. Today the golden retriever guides the blind. Sits with the dying. Finds people buried under rubble. Walks into hospital rooms and lowers a blood pressure reading just by resting its head on a bed. We took a predator and, over centuries, we bred one question out of it: should I hurt this thing? The golden's answer is almost always no. Now here's the part I can't stop thinking about. That gentleness was never aimed at a wolf. It was bred for birds. For children. For us. So what happens when an animal engineered for tenderness meets an animal that was never engineered for anything, one that is still, in every cell, exactly what the wild made it? That's the video. Go watch it if you haven't. I'll be here. . PART 3. THE ANIMAL THAT WAS NEVER ASKED A wolf pup is born blind and deaf. It weighs about a pound. For its first weeks it knows three things: warmth, milk, and the smell of the pack. Its eyes open at around two weeks, and they are blue. They will change to gold or amber within the first months of life, like a color being poured in slowly. In the wild, that pup is raised by an entire family. Mother, father, older siblings, all of them feeding, guarding, teaching. Forget the "alpha wolf" myth you were taught. The biologist who popularized that term, David Mech, spent decades correcting himself. A wild pack is not a gang with a boss. It's a family. A breeding pair and their kids. Which means a wolf pup's entire universe is built around one idea: the pack is everything. Now think about what it means when that universe collapses. Here's the hard science on why wolves aren't dogs, even when humans raise them from the earliest days. Researchers who want socialized wolves take pups from the den at around ten days old and hand-raise them around the clock. Bottle. Warmth. Constant human contact. It's the closest thing to a perfect human upbringing a wolf can get. In a famous 2003 experiment in Hungary, scientists gave hand-raised wolves and ordinary dogs an impossible puzzle: food locked in a box that couldn't be opened. The dogs did something instantly recognizable. They turned around and looked at the nearest human. Straight at the face. Help me. The wolves, raised by humans since they were days old, looked at people far less. They kept working the problem alone. Let that sink in. Same upbringing. Same people. Same room. And still: one animal looks to us for help by instinct, and the other doesn't think to. That's the dial I mentioned. It isn't something you can install with love and a bottle. It took thousands of years of living beside us. There's a legendary experiment that proves how deep this goes. In 1959, in Siberia, a geneticist named Dmitri Belyaev started breeding silver foxes. He selected for exactly one trait: tameness. Nothing else. No looks, no size, no color. Within a handful of generations, the foxes started wagging their tails. Licking hands. Whining when humans left. Then something nobody asked for started happening. Floppy ears. Curly tails. Piebald coats. Foxes that looked like puppies. Pick for friendliness alone, and a whole different animal surfaces. It took decades of careful selection to make a fox that wants us. Which brings me to the question that makes this video so unsettling. If wanting a human is a trait that takes generations to build, what happens when an animal WITHOUT it forms a bond anyway? And who is that bond really with? . PART 4. THE NOSE THAT READS THE FUTURE Before I say another word about the video, let me tell you about the most underrated superpower in the animal kingdom. You have about six million scent receptors in your nose. A dog has around three hundred million. The part of a dog's brain that processes smell is, proportionally, dozens of times larger than yours. Dogs can detect certain odors at parts per trillion. Picture spotting a teaspoon of sugar dissolved in two Olympic swimming pools. But smell isn't the interesting part. The interesting part is what a dog smells ABOUT YOU. In 2022, researchers at Queen's University Belfast collected breath and sweat samples from people before and after they did stressful math tests. Then they trained dogs to tell the samples apart. The dogs picked out the stressed samples correctly about 94 percent of the time. Your dog can smell your cortisol. Your fear. Your dread. And here's the thing. You don't have to say anything. You don't have to cry. You can hold a perfectly calm face while your body chemistry is screaming. Now add routine. Dogs are pattern-recognition machines. They know what your keys sound like, what a suitcase means, which shoes you wear when you're leaving for an hour and which shoes you wear when you're leaving for good. Neuroscientist Gregory Berns put dogs in brain scanners and found that the reward center of a dog's brain lit up most strongly for the scent of a familiar person. Not a stranger. Not another dog. The person they loved. So when I tell you a dog can KNOW something is coming before anyone speaks, I'm not being poetic. I'm describing chemistry, memory, and pattern, running in parallel, faster than you can think. There's a moment in this video where you'll understand this section in your bones. I won't tell you when it is. You'll feel it. . PART 5. THE EYES Here is a fact that rewires how you see your own dog. In 2015, a Japanese team published a study in Science that stopped a lot of people cold. They found that when a dog and its owner look into each other's eyes, both of them get a surge of oxytocin. The bonding hormone. The same one that floods a new mother when she looks at her baby. A loop. Dog looks at you, your oxytocin rises, you look back, the dog's rises. Two nervous systems tuning to each other through nothing but a stare. And here's the twist that gives me chills. The same team tried it with hand-raised wolves and their human caretakers. The loop didn't form. The wolves didn't hold the gaze the same way. The humans didn't get the same hormone hit. Something that comes naturally between a dog and a person simply wasn't there. It gets stranger. In 2019, researchers published a paper in PNAS showing that dogs have a tiny facial muscle above the inner corner of the eyes that wolves essentially lack. It's the muscle that lifts the inner eyebrow. It's what creates the "puppy eyes" look that makes you feel something you can't argue with. A muscle. Evolved, apparently, for one audience: us. Shelter research backs it up. Dogs that make that expression more often tend to get adopted faster. Dogs learned to speak human with their faces. So eye contact, for a dog, is not a small thing. It's the deepest sentence in the language they invented for us. Which is why, when you watch this video, I want you to pay attention to something most people miss the first time. Watch the eyes. Watch who looks at whom. Watch who doesn't. Because in the dog's language, refusing to look at someone you love is one of the loudest things you can say. . PART 6. THE BOWL Ask any dog behaviorist what the ultimate test of trust between two canines is, and you'll hear the same word. Food. Resource guarding is one of the oldest, most primal instincts a dog has. Food is survival. A dog that doesn't defend its meal was, for most of history, a dog that didn't make it. Growls over a bone are not rudeness. They are ancient math. So the bowl is sacred. In a home with two dogs, watch who eats first, who eats faster, who stands too close, who gets a warning stare. A shared bowl between two animals is a peace treaty signed in kibble. Some dogs will happily share toys, beds, even the couch, and still lock up the moment a bowl hits the floor. Some never share it. Not once. Not with anyone. Now put a wolf pup in that picture. A wolf pup that has known real hunger. Or no mother at all. Or no pack. That's an animal for whom food is not a snack. It's a verdict on whether the world is safe. And put a dog who has never, ever shared his food in that same room. I'm not going to tell you what happens next. But when you get to that moment in the video, and you will know it when you see it, remember this section. Remember what the bowl means. . Pause for a second, because a pattern is forming. Smell tells a dog what's coming. Eyes tell him who matters. The bowl tells him who's safe. Play tells him who's family. Four separate systems, one conclusion, and it's the same conclusion every time. You now know how to read the language. All that's left is to watch someone speak it, with everything on the line. . PART 7. THE GRIEF NOBODY BELIEVED IN For most of the twentieth century, serious scientists were warned not to say that animals feel grief. The word for the sin was anthropomorphism. Projecting human feelings onto beasts. You could lose credibility for even suggesting it. And then the data started rolling in. In 1925, a Tokyo professor named Hidesaburo Ueno died suddenly at work. His Akita, Hachiko, who had walked him to Shibuya Station every morning and met him at the platform every evening, showed up at the station the next day. And the next. For nine years, nine months, and fifteen days. Every single evening. Until his own death in 1935. The Japanese made a statue. The world made movies. But the scientists stayed cautious. One dog. Could be habit. Then in 2022, a team in Italy studied hundreds of multi-dog households where one dog had died. Owners reported that the surviving dogs changed. They sought more attention. They played less. They were less active. Many showed sleep and appetite changes. Not proof of grief exactly as we feel it. Scientists are still honest about that gap. But proof that the loss of a companion reshapes a dog's whole behavior. Here's the honest version, and I'll give you both sides: skeptics say we can't know what a dog feels inside. That's fair. We can't. We can only observe behavior, hormones, brain activity. But if a dog changes when a friend disappears, then that friend was never "just another animal" to him. Which raises the question the video quietly asks: What happens when a dog can see the loss coming? Not after. Before. Does the grief start early? Watch and decide for yourself. . PART 8. PLAY IS A CONTRACT Every canine on Earth speaks one shared language of play, and it's older than domestication itself. It starts with a bow. Front legs down, rear end up, tail high. The famous play bow. Researchers, especially the biologist Marc Bekoff, spent years studying it and found that it works like a punctuation mark. It means: everything I do after this is a game. If I bite, it's not a real bite. If I pounce, it's not an attack. It's a contract. And here's the wild part: wolves use it. Foxes use it. Coyotes use it. Dogs use it. The signal predates the split I told you about in Part 1. Which means a dog and a wolf can meet, with 15,000 years of divergence between them, and still understand each other's opening move. It gets deeper. Play is a negotiation between unequals. A big dog playing with a smaller one will often hold back. Roll over. Let the little one "win." Researchers call it self-handicapping. It's the animal version of a father lifting his daughter onto his shoulders and letting her win the race. And they role-reverse. The chaser becomes the chased. The one on top ends up underneath. That only happens if both animals believe the other is safe. Play, in the animal kingdom, is the most honest test of trust there is. Nobody can fake it. You can't roleplay tenderness with a body that has fangs. You either mean it, or the game collapses in seconds. And it changes as the years go on. Puppies play like puppies. Then they grow. Their size changes. Their strength changes. Their jaws change. The game has to change with them, or it ends. Some friendships don't survive that. Some survive by getting more careful, more precise, more competitive, and somehow more loving at the same time. The end of this video is a masterclass in that. I'll leave it there. . PART 9. THE HARDEST KIND OF LOVE Now the uncomfortable part. The part the internet often skips. Wolves are not pets. Say it out loud and it sounds obvious. But every year, people fall in love with the idea of a wolf, and every year the story ends badly for the animal. A wolf is built to cover up to thirty miles in a day. To live in a family of its own kind. To communicate with howls that carry for miles. Its jaws, its instincts, its stress responses, its needs are those of a wild animal. A house cannot hold that. A backyard cannot hold that. Love, however genuine, is not a substitute for what a wolf actually needs. And here's the tragic loop wildlife rescuers talk about: an orphaned wolf pup that grows up around humans is often too habituated to ever be released. It didn't learn what its mother would have taught it. It doesn't fear what it should fear. So the "rescue" can't end in the forest. It has to end somewhere in between. Somewhere that isn't the wild and isn't a living room. A place built for what this animal is. That's where the real story lives. Not in the rescue. In the decision after. Because the hardest thing in the world isn't loving something. It's loving something enough to hand it to the people who can give it the life it needs, and then living with the hole that leaves. People get torn apart over decisions like that. Not because they didn't love the animal. Because they did. Sometimes the most loving act looks exactly like loss. And here is what stopped me. The human in this story wasn't the only one who understood that. Somebody else in that story understood it too. Somebody with four legs and no ability to speak. I won't say who. I won't say how. Just watch. . PART 10. WHY YOUR CHEST TIGHTENS Have you noticed something strange about videos like this? They don't make you sad exactly. They make you feel something warmer. A tightness in the chest. Goosebumps on your arms. Sometimes a sudden hot wetness at the corners of your eyes, and you don't know why. Psychologists have a name for it now. Kama muta. It's Sanskrit for "moved by love." The researcher who helped define it, Alan Fiske, argues that it's triggered by one specific thing: the sudden intensification of a bond. A reunion. A reconciliation. A loyalty proven under pressure. A stranger becoming family. That moment when two beings who could have stayed apart choose each other anyway. Across cultures and languages, the physical signature keeps showing up: chills, tears, warmth in the chest, a lump in the throat. It isn't sadness. It isn't happiness. It's the feeling of witnessing connection get stronger. Another psychologist, Jonathan Haidt, calls a cousin of it moral elevation. That warm lift you feel when you watch someone do something unexpectedly good. It makes you want to be better. Kinder. It literally makes people more likely to help others afterward. So why do animals trigger it so powerfully? Because animals strip out everything we distrust in human stories. No agenda. No performance. No PR. No "what's in it for me." A dog can't fake loyalty for likes. A wolf can't pretend to love you for status. When two animals from opposite ends of evolution choose each other, we're watching the purest version of the thing we hunger for in our own lives, in a form we can trust. That's why you'll feel it. That's why you'll want to show it to someone right after. And that's why the algorithm will keep showing it to you. . PART 11. SIXTEEN FACTS THAT WILL CHANGE HOW YOU SEE THIS CLIP FACT 1. For every wild wolf on Earth, there are thousands of dogs. One branch of the family tree took over the planet by befriending us. The other stayed wild and stayed rare. FACT 2. Wolf pups are born with blue eyes. Adult wolves usually have gold or amber. Nobody sees the change happen. It just does. FACT 3. Wolves rarely bark. Barking is mostly a dog invention, and one theory says it evolved largely to talk to humans. FACT 4. A dog's tail wag isn't just "happy." Research suggests a wag skewed to the right side tends to signal approach and comfort, and one skewed to the left signals hesitation or stress. A dog is broadcasting its mood in code, and you were never taught to read it. FACT 5. Dogs catch human yawns. Wolves catch yawns from each other, and more so from the ones they're closest to. Contagious yawning tracks emotional closeness, not just habit. FACT 6. A wolf can eat up to twenty pounds of meat in one sitting. Then not eat properly for days. Feast and famine is written into its body. FACT 7. In a dog's brain, praise only lights up the reward center when BOTH the words and the tone are right. Say "good boy" in a flat voice and it doesn't fully land. Dogs process what you say and how you say it separately, then combine them. FACT 8. A wild wolf lives roughly six to eight years. A golden retriever lives ten to twelve. One of them is built for hardship. The other is built for company. FACT 9. Dogs combine faces and voices to read emotion. In one study, dogs shown two human faces while hearing a voice looked longer at the face whose emotion matched the sound. FACT 10. A border collie named Chaser learned the names of more than 1,000 toys, and could pick out a brand-new one by pure elimination. That's reasoning, not tricks. FACT 11. Wolves in a wild pack are a family, not an army. The pups eat, the parents hunt, the older siblings babysit. The word "alpha" mostly belongs to captive wolves forced together, not wild ones. FACT 12. A dog's nose print is as unique as a human fingerprint. So is its bond with you. FACT 13. Dogs hear frequencies far above what you can, up to roughly 45,000 Hz and beyond. The world around you is full of sound they can't stop noticing. FACT 14. A wolf's paw print can be nearly five inches long. Bigger than most dogs' prints. Yet the golden retriever's heart, by any measure that matters, is not smaller. FACT 15. Dogs dream. They go through REM sleep just like you. The twitching, the tiny barks, the running paws: it's a brain replaying its day. FACT 16. The wolf is the ancestor of the dog only in the loosest sense. Both come from a wolf lineage that no longer exists. When you watch these two, you are watching an ancient family reunion between two branches that lost touch before recorded history. . PART 12. HOW TO WATCH IT (WITHOUT ME SPOILING IT) You've made it this far, which tells me one thing about you. You're not a scroller. You're a noticer. So here's how to watch this clip like someone who knows what they're looking at. FIRST WATCH. Just feel it. Don't analyze. Let the story run at its own speed. The clip is under two minutes and it doesn't waste a second. SECOND WATCH. Focus on distance. Notice how close the animals stand. How that changes. How it never quite changes the way you expect. THIRD WATCH. Focus on the dog. Only the dog. Not what he does. What he refuses to do. FOURTH WATCH. Focus on the ears and the tail. Everything a dog can't say, he says with those two things. And he says a lot. And the last five seconds? Do not skip them. Do not scroll early. Watch the final image and ask yourself one question: If this is what the two of them look like now, what did it cost to get here? . CLOSING. WHY THIS MATTERS MORE THAN A "CUTE VIDEO" Let me leave you with the thought that made me write all of this. We live in a world that constantly tells us bonds are transactional. That loyalty is naive. That people, and animals, only love you when you're useful. Then along comes a story like this, and it quietly breaks that theory. A dog engineered for gentleness. A wolf engineered by nothing but the wild. Fifteen thousand years of evolution between them, a wall of biology that says they should be strangers, or worse. And instead: a bond so strong that the humans standing around it were afraid of what it would cost. Not because anyone was in danger. Because one of them understood exactly what was at stake. That's the thing about animals. They don't need the science. They don't need Part 1 through Part 12. They don't know about oxytocin loops or kama muta or play bows. They just know who matters. And they act on it, immediately, with everything they've got. Maybe that's the real reason this kind of video travels the way it does. Not because it's cute. Because it reminds us of a level of loyalty we've quietly stopped expecting from each other. So do these three things. ONE. Go watch the video. All 97 seconds. Sound on. TWO. Come back and reply with the exact moment you felt it. I want the second, the caption, the look. Tell me where it got you. THREE. Send it to one person who needs to see what love looks like when nobody is performing it. You know who. Repost this if the video moved you. Follow me for more stories where science and animals collide. And remember the question from the top of this post, because now you can answer it. What does a creature do when it loves something it was never built to keep? If you watched carefully, you already know. If you didn't, go back. The answer is in the last frame.
1:37

Dogs and wolves split apart at least 15,000 years ago. Then a golden retriever met a wolf pup, and did something his own owner says terrified him. 97 seconds. Sound on. Watch the video BEFORE you read another word. Then come back. I'll show you why this clip is stranger, and far more important, than it looks. (Long read. Bookmark it now. You'll want it later.) . I'm not going to tell you what happens in that video. Not one spoiler. Not a hint. Because the video does its own work, and it does it better than any caption I could write. What I can do is show you the invisible layer underneath it. The biology. The history. The 15,000 years of evolution that were supposed to make a moment like this impossible. When you press play, you are not watching two animals. You are watching two completely different answers to the same question, standing in the same yard. The question is: what does a creature do when it loves something it was never built to keep? Read on. Then watch again. It will hit differently the second time. I guarantee it. . PART 1. THE SPLIT Let's start with the number that should bother you. Fifteen thousand years. Possibly forty thousand. Scientists still argue about the exact date, and they argue loudly. Somewhere in that window, a population of ancient wolves, one that no longer exists anywhere on Earth, forked into two paths. One path led to the wolf you know from documentaries. Wary. Silent in the trees. Built to survive without us. The other path led to the animal sleeping on your couch. Here's what almost nobody realizes: your dog did not descend from the modern gray wolf. Both descend from a shared ancestor that vanished. Dogs and wolves are less like parent and child, more like cousins who grew up in different countries and stopped speaking the same language. And yet their DNA is almost identical. Different by a sliver. They can even interbreed and produce fertile offspring. Biologically, the gap between them is tiny. Behaviorally, the gap is an ocean. In 2017, a Princeton-led team compared the genomes of dogs and wolves and found something eerie.

THE BOWL Ask any dog behaviorist what the ultimate test of trust between two canines is, and you'll hear the same word. Food. Resource guarding is one of the oldest, most primal instincts a dog has. Food is survival. A dog that doesn't defend its meal was, for most of history, a dog that didn't make it. Growls over a bone are not rudeness. They are ancient math. So the bowl is sacred. In a home with two dogs, watch who eats first, who eats faster, who stands too close, who gets a warning stare. A shared bowl between two animals is a peace treaty signed in kibble. Some dogs will happily share toys, beds, even the couch, and still lock up the moment a bowl hits the floor. Some never share it. Not once. Not with anyone. Now put a wolf pup in that picture. A wolf pup that has known real hunger. Or no mother at all. Or no pack. That's an animal for whom food is not a snack. It's a verdict on whether the world is safe. And put a dog who has never, ever shared his food in that same room. I'm not going to tell you what happens next. But when you get to that moment in the video, and you will know it when you see it, remember this section. Remember what the bowl means. . Pause for a second, because a pattern is forming. Smell tells a dog what's coming. Eyes tell him who matters. The bowl tells him who's safe. Play tells him who's family. Four separate systems, one conclusion, and it's the same conclusion every time. You now know how to read the language. All that's left is to watch someone speak it, with everything on the line. . PART 7. THE GRIEF NOBODY BELIEVED IN For most of the twentieth century, serious scientists were warned not to say that animals feel grief. The word for the sin was anthropomorphism. Projecting human feelings onto beasts. You could lose credibility for even suggesting it. And then the data started rolling in. In 1925, a Tokyo professor named Hidesaburo Ueno died suddenly at work. His Akita, Hachiko, who had walked him to Shibuya Station every morning and met him at the platform every evening, showed up at the station the next day. And the next. For nine years, nine months, and fifteen days. Every single evening. Until his own death in 1935. The Japanese made a statue. The world made movies. But the scientists stayed cautious. One dog. Could be habit. Then in 2022, a team in Italy studied hundreds of multi-dog households where one dog had died. Owners reported that the surviving dogs changed. They sought more attention. They played less. They were less active. Many showed sleep and appetite changes. Not proof of grief exactly as we feel it. Scientists are still honest about that gap. But proof that the loss of a companion reshapes a dog's whole behavior. Here's the honest version, and I'll give you both sides: skeptics say we can't know what a dog feels inside. That's fair. We can't. We can only observe behavior, hormones, brain activity. But if a dog changes when a friend disappears, then that friend was never "just another animal" to him. Which raises the question the video quietly asks: What happens when a dog can see the loss coming? Not after. Before. Does the grief start early? Watch and decide for yourself. . PART 8. PLAY IS A CONTRACT Every canine on Earth speaks one shared language of play, and it's older than domestication itself. It starts with a bow. Front legs down, rear end up, tail high. The famous play bow. Researchers, especially the biologist Marc Bekoff, spent years studying it and found that it works like a punctuation mark. It means: everything I do after this is a game. If I bite, it's not a real bite. If I pounce, it's not an attack. It's a contract. And here's the wild part: wolves use it. Foxes use it. Coyotes use it. Dogs use it. The signal predates the split I told you about in Part 1. Which means a dog and a wolf can meet, with 15,000 years of divergence between them, and still understand each other's opening move. It gets deeper. Play is a negotiation between unequals. A big dog playing with a smaller one will often hold back. Roll over. Let the little one "win." Researchers call it self-handicapping. It's the animal version of a father lifting his daughter onto his shoulders and letting her win the race. And they role-reverse. The chaser becomes the chased. The one on top ends up underneath. That only happens if both animals believe the other is safe. Play, in the animal kingdom, is the most honest test of trust there is. Nobody can fake it. You can't roleplay tenderness with a body that has fangs. You either mean it, or the game collapses in seconds. And it changes as the years go on. Puppies play like puppies. Then they grow. Their size changes. Their strength changes. Their jaws change. The game has to change with them, or it ends. Some friendships don't survive that. Some survive by getting more careful, more precise, more competitive, and somehow more loving at the same time. The end of this video is a masterclass in that. I'll leave it there. . PART 9. THE HARDEST KIND OF LOVE Now the uncomfortable part. The part the internet often skips. Wolves are not pets. Say it out loud and it sounds obvious. But every year, people fall in love with the idea of a wolf, and every year the story ends badly for the animal. A wolf is built to cover up to thirty miles in a day. To live in a family of its own kind. To communicate with howls that carry for miles. Its jaws, its instincts, its stress responses, its needs are those of a wild animal. A house cannot hold that. A backyard cannot hold that. Love, however genuine, is not a substitute for what a wolf actually needs. And here's the tragic loop wildlife rescuers talk about: an orphaned wolf pup that grows up around humans is often too habituated to ever be released. It didn't learn what its mother would have taught it. It doesn't fear what it should fear. So the "rescue" can't end in the forest. It has to end somewhere in between. Somewhere that isn't the wild and isn't a living room. A place built for what this animal is. That's where the real story lives. Not in the rescue. In the decision after. Because the hardest thing in the world isn't loving something. It's loving something enough to hand it to the people who can give it the life it needs, and then living with the hole that leaves. People get torn apart over decisions like that. Not because they didn't love the animal. Because they did. Sometimes the most loving act looks exactly like loss. And here is what stopped me. The human in this story wasn't the only one who understood that. Somebody else in that story understood it too. Somebody with four legs and no ability to speak. I won't say who. I won't say how. Just watch. . PART 10. WHY YOUR CHEST TIGHTENS Have you noticed something strange about videos like this? They don't make you sad exactly. They make you feel something warmer. A tightness in the chest. Goosebumps on your arms. Sometimes a sudden hot wetness at the corners of your eyes, and you don't know why. Psychologists have a name for it now. Kama muta. It's Sanskrit for "moved by love." The researcher who helped define it, Alan Fiske, argues that it's triggered by one specific thing: the sudden intensification of a bond. A reunion. A reconciliation. A loyalty proven under pressure. A stranger becoming family. That moment when two beings who could have stayed apart choose each other anyway. Across cultures and languages, the physical signature keeps showing up: chills, tears, warmth in the chest, a lump in the throat. It isn't sadness. It isn't happiness. It's the feeling of witnessing connection get stronger. Another psychologist, Jonathan Haidt, calls a cousin of it moral elevation. That warm lift you feel when you watch someone do something unexpectedly good. It makes you want to be better. Kinder. It literally makes people more likely to help others afterward. So why do animals trigger it so powerfully? Because animals strip out everything we distrust in human stories. No agenda. No performance. No PR. No "what's in it for me." A dog can't fake loyalty for likes. A wolf can't pretend to love you for status. When two animals from opposite ends of evolution choose each other, we're watching the purest version of the thing we hunger for in our own lives, in a form we can trust. That's why you'll feel it. That's why you'll want to show it to someone right after. And that's why the algorithm will keep showing it to you. . PART 11. SIXTEEN FACTS THAT WILL CHANGE HOW YOU SEE THIS CLIP FACT 1. For every wild wolf on Earth, there are thousands of dogs. One branch of the family tree took over the planet by befriending us. The other stayed wild and stayed rare. FACT 2. Wolf pups are born with blue eyes. Adult wolves usually have gold or amber. Nobody sees the change happen. It just does. FACT 3. Wolves rarely bark. Barking is mostly a dog invention, and one theory says it evolved largely to talk to humans. FACT 4. A dog's tail wag isn't just "happy." Research suggests a wag skewed to the right side tends to signal approach and comfort, and one skewed to the left signals hesitation or stress. A dog is broadcasting its mood in code, and you were never taught to read it. FACT 5. Dogs catch human yawns. Wolves catch yawns from each other, and more so from the ones they're closest to. Contagious yawning tracks emotional closeness, not just habit. FACT 6. A wolf can eat up to twenty pounds of meat in one sitting. Then not eat properly for days. Feast and famine is written into its body. FACT 7. In a dog's brain, praise only lights up the reward center when BOTH the words and the tone are right. Say "good boy" in a flat voice and it doesn't fully land. Dogs process what you say and how you say it separately, then combine them. FACT 8. A wild wolf lives roughly six to eight years. A golden retriever lives ten to twelve. One of them is built for hardship. The other is built for company. FACT 9. Dogs combine faces and voices to read emotion. In one study, dogs shown two human faces while hearing a voice looked longer at the face whose emotion matched the sound. FACT 10. A border collie named Chaser learned the names of more than 1,000 toys, and could pick out a brand-new one by pure elimination. That's reasoning, not tricks. FACT 11. Wolves in a wild pack are a family, not an army. The pups eat, the parents hunt, the older siblings babysit. The word "alpha" mostly belongs to captive wolves forced together, not wild ones. FACT 12. A dog's nose print is as unique as a human fingerprint. So is its bond with you. FACT 13. Dogs hear frequencies far above what you can, up to roughly 45,000 Hz and beyond. The world around you is full of sound they can't stop noticing. FACT 14. A wolf's paw print can be nearly five inches long. Bigger than most dogs' prints. Yet the golden retriever's heart, by any measure that matters, is not smaller. FACT 15. Dogs dream. They go through REM sleep just like you. The twitching, the tiny barks, the running paws: it's a brain replaying its day. FACT 16. The wolf is the ancestor of the dog only in the loosest sense. Both come from a wolf lineage that no longer exists. When you watch these two, you are watching an ancient family reunion between two branches that lost touch before recorded history. . PART 12. HOW TO WATCH IT (WITHOUT ME SPOILING IT) You've made it this far, which tells me one thing about you. You're not a scroller. You're a noticer. So here's how to watch this clip like someone who knows what they're looking at. FIRST WATCH. Just feel it. Don't analyze. Let the story run at its own speed. The clip is under two minutes and it doesn't waste a second. SECOND WATCH. Focus on distance. Notice how close the animals stand. How that changes. How it never quite changes the way you expect. THIRD WATCH. Focus on the dog. Only the dog. Not what he does. What he refuses to do. FOURTH WATCH. Focus on the ears and the tail. Everything a dog can't say, he says with those two things. And he says a lot. And the last five seconds? Do not skip them. Do not scroll early. Watch the final image and ask yourself one question: If this is what the two of them look like now, what did it cost to get here? . CLOSING. WHY THIS MATTERS MORE THAN A "CUTE VIDEO" Let me leave you with the thought that made me write all of this. We live in a world that constantly tells us bonds are transactional. That loyalty is naive. That people, and animals, only love you when you're useful. Then along comes a story like this, and it quietly breaks that theory. A dog engineered for gentleness. A wolf engineered by nothing but the wild. Fifteen thousand years of evolution between them, a wall of biology that says they should be strangers, or worse. And instead: a bond so strong that the humans standing around it were afraid of what it would cost. Not because anyone was in danger. Because one of them understood exactly what was at stake. That's the thing about animals. They don't need the science. They don't need Part 1 through Part 12. They don't know about oxytocin loops or kama muta or play bows. They just know who matters. And they act on it, immediately, with everything they've got. Maybe that's the real reason this kind of video travels the way it does. Not because it's cute. Because it reminds us of a level of loyalty we've quietly stopped expecting from each other. So do these three things. ONE. Go watch the video. All 97 seconds. Sound on. TWO. Come back and reply with the exact moment you felt it. I want the second, the caption, the look. Tell me where it got you. THREE. Send it to one person who needs to see what love looks like when nobody is performing it. You know who. Repost this if the video moved you. Follow me for more stories where science and animals collide. And remember the question from the top of this post, because now you can answer it. What does a creature do when it loves something it was never built to keep? If you watched carefully, you already know. If you didn't, go back. The answer is in the last frame.

OPERATION INDIGO SKYFALL (SKYNET) (Update 6/11/25) While Operation Indigo Skyfall is a program by the Anunnaki specifically to turn the global atmosphere into an electrolyte solution 'motherboard' that powers Skynet that's already fully online as of May 2020, it was preceded by a decades-long 3-pronged assault against the pineal glands of humankind. The thrust of all three programs combined are all about disconnecting people from their higher selves and to vastly reduce their intellect quotient to make them easily controlled, prior to the launch of Skynet. Understand the intense investment that has been funneled into destroying the very beings that paid the taxes (loosh) to fund these programs is more than the gross domestic products of multiple countries combined. At minimum, trillions $ pr year in 2025 dollars, for more than 80 years. If you’ve ever seen chemtrails in your skies, you’ve seen one of these programs in a bold, in-your-face, broad-daylight fashion. THREE-PRONGED ATTACK PREPARING FOR SKYNET #1 FLUORIDE = WATER CONTAMINATION In its first installation of what would ultimately become a nation-wide invasion of every metropolis, city, town and mud puddle in the US, fluoride was added to public water in Grand Rapids in 1945 to ‘fight tooth decay’. Problem is, fluoride is actually nuclear waste used as rat poison. It is a known neurotoxin more harmful than lead & likened to the toxicity of arsenic for more than 100 years, causing brain damage, spinal cord & nerve networks destruction and has never been shown to diminish the onset of tooth decay. Which every dentist in the country would have banded together to put a stop to back then if it really did that. So who decided to put THAT into your drinking water exactly? Andrew Mellon, 33rd degree Scottish Wrong Freem@son. Shocking Dangers of Fluoride: cancerwisdom dot net; "There has never been a double-blind, randomized clinical trial for fluoridation's effectiveness." [In reality, fluoride itself has been shown to damage teeth in a totally different way than we get through eating, known as fluorosis. Also in reality, all tooth decay is 100% of the time, parasites, not ‘rot’. They say sugar rots teeth; which is a lie. Sugar is a primary food of parasites, along with heavy metals. When you eat sugars then fail to immediately brush & floss, the parasites already in your body (and there are at least millions) rush to the crevices of your palate then wind up burrowing into your teeth’s (actual crystals) valance bands, further destroying them each time the parasites defecate. Anytime you eat anything sugar or sweetened, ALWAYS mix it with an antiparasitic & immediately brush, or rinse your mouth with hydrogen peroxide afterward, never with mouthwash, which is also poison. I will be covering this extensively soon in my new article: 👉PARASITES] As explained in greater detail below in the whistleblower video, fluoride was used by the N@TZIs (Ashke-N@TZI Crypto J3ws that took over Germany then lead that country into WW2, posing as actual Germans, which they absolutely were not. See my article: 👉GERMANY WON WW2 for more) in concentration camps in the 1930s-40s to make prisoners docile. How does that work? Fluoride accumulates at, and attacks, the pineal gland of your body. This is the ‘antenna’ connection to your higher self that generates your reality. The pineal gland then fights back the fluoride toxin, moving it just outside of its ‘theater of the mind’ and surrounds it to seal it off from attacking. This builds up a ‘calcification’ around the pineal gland, which acts as an insulator blocking your signal to the Primal Sound & Light Fields of the Deity Planes where your higher self has always been positioned, inside what is known in human terms as the Unified Field. [For more on the key function of the pineal gland, see my article: 👉 HOW THE HOLOGRAPHIC SIMULATION WORKS] #2 OPERATION INDIGO SKYFALL = AIR CONTAMINATION (not to be confused with Operation Indigo SkyFOLD which is just another red herring distraction to overcome the dissemination of the truth of this existential threat to all mankind.) Beginning as far back as 1972, Operation Indigo Skyfall chemtrail program is one of the most brutally-compartmentalized & ferociously classified operations of all-time. So secret, the tens of thousands of chemtrail jets across the world don’t even land on the continental United States, but refresh their death dust exclusively on private islands, outside of enforced laws. The first part of this program where strontium, barium & aluminum microparticles are being dumped onto all of the lands of earth that kill all life forms, including the trees and forests, is the obvious portion of your extermination, and even that is only a fraction of the story being applied to depopulate the plane(t) from reportedly 8B people (this is a lie, it was less than 5B in 2019) to just 500,000. The heavy metals being reported by laboratories are merely assaying the minerals themselves, not looking deeper into what’s really going on. In reality, these are the minerals used in the manufacture of nanites that are often no larger than just 4 molecules in size. Each one programmed on a quantum level to interconnect with one another, forming larger and larger computer nodes, just like the massive white ‘antennas’ being removed from millions of clot-shot victims around the world since the final push to bring this program to completion began with the ‘Covid’ attempted genocide using mRNA bioweapons. Prior to the huge blood-clots (invasive man-made prions to take over the full functioning of the body) now being retrieved from cadavers and patients suffering this biological invasion, chemtrail direct effects were known as Morgellons Disease where tiny wire-like structures were coming out of people’s skin. However, the ‘disease’ gaslighting was exposed when laboratories began placing them under powerful microscopes and finding they were individual nanotbots ‘holding hands’ to make up the ‘wires’ that were now growing inside people’s bodies. Once zoomed in using scanning electron-microscopy to each one, they not only found the NAME of the companies behind each model, but even serial numbers printed in quantum-dots on their structures. You might recognize this one that clearly says NASA on its surface. The program of chemtrail nanites is to infiltrate the immune system of the human body and generate immunodeficiency so you are unable to fight off diseases and viruses. But there is another, even more primary mission for those molecular-sized robots; to collect at your pineal gland causing calcification and thus not only disrupting your entire system, but placing a crystalline ‘shell’ around it to cut off your ‘spiritual’ access to your higher self. Think of it like scrambling the signal of your cellphone if you had a direct line to ‘god’. As an aside, Cody Snodres, the independent contractor for the C 👁️A of 20 years & hero whistleblower that broke the story of Operation Indigo Skyfall in 2018 in the video below, mentions pathogens being added to chemtrails. These have been solidly identified by labs as recently as a few months ago in late 2024 & again in Jan of 2025 when entire cities were enveloped by huge, totally dry, fog banks of particulates dropped from the skies that caused countless deaths from pneumonia. Referred to by people as ‘Dragon Fog’, the pathogens are actually Serratia Marcescens bacteria (another word for parasites, pathogens, microorganisms & viruses). While I’m sure there have been other parasites added to chemtrails that attack the immune systems of humans and animals other than Serratia Marcescens, this particular species has been used by mil operations now as an ideal biological weapon and regularly upgraded now for many decades. Stay with me, I’m getting to Skynet, but first I have to show you some of the foundational elements of how the invader races have reached this point where humans would have become so mentally effected by this unthinkably massive-scale attack on your pineal gland, they would become psychologically and emotionally unable to fight back, even if they ever did look up in the sky and cognitively register the fact that contrails (endothermic sublimation or ‘fog’) emitted by the compressed-air turbines of jets dissipate in about 8-20 seconds, not hang in the air for hours and hours. [And for those now wondering what I mean about jets using compressed air as forward thrust in commercial passenger jets, that’s a story that is going to surely hack you off when you find out that passenger jets have always been levitation/time crafts since they were introduced to the public in the 1940s. They don’t run on fuel, but on high-altitude atmospheric neutrino-to-ion conversion harvesting (also known as ‘Secondary Emissions’ as well as ‘Neutrino Events’). So every ‘fuel increase’ markup for local and international flights has always been absolutely made-up, since what they run on is eternally-free energy. See my article for more: 👉JET FUEL HOAX] #3 M0NSANT0 = FOOD CONTAMINATION This company does *not make better-performing corn & veggies: it is a bioweapons company. John Francis Queeny, a Freem@son, that founded this genocidal operation in 1901 produces 90% of the world’s genetically-altered seeds & is responsible for developing Agent Orange, a defoliant used during the Vietnam War, containing a highly toxic chemical known as dioxin that caused permanent health issues for thousands of war veterans. Later it used this same type of murderous chemical in Roundup to k!ll weeds around your home, coating your world with glyphosate that changes the sex in frogs and turns them ghey and sterile. Guess what other life forms it changes the sex in and makes them sterile? Ever witnessed the most celebrated triathlete of the 20th century suddenly pop up and claim he was now a ‘woman’? How about watching as our youngest generation enters the workforce, most of whom don’t even know what sex they are? That’s your M0nsanto working hard to ensure the human race is eradicated from the all-queer-all-the-time world Freem@sons envision as their true utopia in the “500m sustainable population” as etched into granite on the Georgia Guidestones. A number mirrored by United Nation’s Agenda 2030 to be achieved by the year 2050. Their goal is literally 👉your depopulation and those that are left, will be 100% ghey. Diddly Parties nightly! GMO foods that are grown using M0nsanto’s “Roundup Ready” fertilizer that is made with glyphosate toxins are absorbed by the gut and then travel directly to the pineal gland. This is the Anunnaki’s ‘Trifecta’ attack on your most precious organ of your body. The very organ that dictates all the parameters of your reality held within your Krystal Seed Atom Keylon you enter into manifestation with, commonly referred to as your ‘soul’. In more accurate terms, your Krystal Seed Atom is like a Bluetooth module that tethers your awareness from your higher self in the Primal Sound and Light Fields of the Deity Planes, to your physical avatar here on the ground through the wireless ‘pale silver cord’. The Krystal Seed Atom is located in the middle of your pineal gland. [For more on the Krystal Seed Atom, see my articles: 👉THE HISTORY OF THE CHIMERA, & 👉THE KEYS TO HEAVEN] As Cody points out in the video, this is not a matter of hitting your pineal gland with three doses of toxins, but because of how these three chemicals of fluoride, nano aluminum & glyphosate interact with each other, creates synergy, or a dynamic magnification of the toxicity effect by a factor of 125x greater than any one individual dose would achieve. This makes the Trifecta assault astronomically devastating to your connection to the pale silver cord and your wireless connection to the ‘real’ you that’s running your avatar in the deity planes. Sort of like taking your 4 yr old to the mall and just letting them go on their own. Now, with your virtually disabled pineal gland reality-casting component out of the way, enter the true teeth behind Operation Indigo Skyfall; Skynet. SKYNET This is a subject I won’t be able to offer much tangible, solid evidence on, as it goes deeply into quantum physics. All of which terms describing each step in the chain to achieve ‘if this, then that’, are shielded from public understanding by design. The power of computers is vastly beyond what the human mind has been given the ability to process, also by design. [As I’ve covered before, the Chimera brain you work with now, since the total body-invasion of the garden of E-Dan drama, is fitted with breaker switches that are designed to keep certain subjects hidden from your reality-view. When exposed to any of these, a switch is thrown at the base of the brain within the totally counterfeit ‘reptilian brain’ that introduces feral, animalistic type of wavelengths into your thought processes. The switch then disengages your sentient thoughts, shutting off either temporarily, or permanently, your processor (brain). Simply put: if you see a creature you’re not supposed to, or other ‘proprietary’ mechanisms of the invader races (which are in fact all around you every minute of everyday) that doesn’t fit with the ‘Mayberry RFD’ Chimera Reality simulation overlay, or if you experience too much trauma, you will simply black out, delete that memory when you wake up, or in extreme cases, pass away from fright. The realm of quantum computing will have the same effect on humans as well. You might learn all about the subject, but secretly in the background your memories will strangely be deleted next time you come back to it, unless your cells vibrate at a higher resonance than 7.83Hz. [For more on the inorganic organs now in our bodies, see my article: 👉HUMAN ALIEN IMPLANTS] Nonetheless, I can simplify the thrust of Skynet for you in broad terms here. Just understand that Skynet was explained to me in person by the keeper. I didn’t make Skynet up on my own, I wasn’t prompted by the Skynet mentioned in the documentary series The Terminator, and I certainly wasn’t prepared to learn there could be something as all-powerful reigning over our world. Chemtrails, besides dropping immune-system pathogens on you, cutting off your connection to your higher self through nano aluminum particles, contains other metals (nanites) that act together like salts in a body of water, turning the sky itself (also water, just very thinned down) into an electrolyte solution, meaning it can now conduct signals, just like a motherboard on a computer. The hard drive and RAM are already there in the form of deuterium microcrystals, absolutely saturating our skies at all times. Each crystal can be used for different applications, and many of them connected together through lensing (similar to network covalent bonding them together) can be combined to do heavy tasks, such as create hurricanes, floods, gale-force winds, everything you would ascribe to mother nature. But more than just that, Skynet is a ‘sentient quantum computer’ as explained to me, that can identify every person on earth instantly anywhere they are, because it is quantum-entangled to each person’s own unique DNA resonant frequency. This gives Skynet access to not only record every word you say, but every thought you think. This is done through Bloch Chain (Bloch Sphere entanglement technology that civilians call ‘blockchain’) through using each person's blood samples from the bottom of their Long Form Certificate of Live Birth taken at the hospital, and further from 81.3% of the world population who took the convid tests that were also secretly the actual jab itself, in addition to genetic harvesting. Genealogy companies like 23andMe also provide genetic materials to Skynet to make it possible to not only track you, but 'turn you off' if you're from a bloodline the highest-up ETs don't want here. Further, its able to simply 'shut off' any part of your body, taking over complete control like an RC car, or, simply turn it off as mentioned a moment ago, as in unalived. And do so instantly no matter where they stand on or in earth. Since you are already a radio-controlled bioelectronic device, any cell in your body can be turned into anything, including c@ncer, or any disease you can name. It can also be turned into poison itself. [For a small addition to this topic, see my article: 👉SKYNET] NAME OF THE OPERATION Cody summarizes the name of Operation Indigo Skyfall as having come from the fact that all of the chemical effects it produces in the human body are focused to the pineal gland, and, in the energy centers of the 7 main chakras (these are toroidal energy generators along the spine and skeletal structure) that cast off differing colors of light as seen through photometers or electromagnetic frequency analyzers that are used to detect biophotons, the Third Eye chakra emitted by the pineal gland is factually Indigo in color. So that’s what inspired this name of the operation. However, I would like to submit a different theory that links to the human Third Eye chakra, but actually originates from a different target: Indigos themselves. There are 500,000 ‘b00ts on the ground’ Indigos that have been assisting humans during their time of captivity now for hundreds of millions of years. You have called us witches & warlocks in the past, medicine men/women, Sufis, the Whirling Dervish, Indigos, Starseeds, Rainbow Children and many others, including Djedi Knights in more ancient times. They are actually known as the Guardian Alliance of the Emerald Covenant, peace-keepers of the ‘Turaneusiam’ Human Elohim Project. Indigos come into earth’s realm mind-wiped and alone, just as humans do. All they bring with them are slightly higher clair abilities they can use to fight an invisible war protecting the developing avatars from as much torture as they would otherwise experience. There is no group alive the invader races are more concerned about than Indigos, as if unified, there is no force on this plane that could stop them, and the invaders know it. What they fear is our higher frequency that gives us access to ‘cellular memory’ that tells us we’re ‘on mission’ and the instinct of how to serve our roles. That is why Indigos are hunted down since before they are even born, by tracking their frequency, which is 250x higher than that of the Human Elohim. We are harvested for gov programs beginning at the time of birth & given to high ranking gov and Freem@son officials to raise and torture through MK-Ultra abuse, given friends, lovers & mates who are secretly handlers that torture us even more to keep us in line, and in many cases are abducted and placed into stasis in chambers such as at Project Stargate inside Cheyenne Mtn (N0RAD) as mentioned recently by the AI hybrid Agent Mockingbird stated from above-top-secret records there are tens of thousands of our ‘primary bodies’ being held there, sometimes then cloned as physical worker slaves, & sometimes our awarenesses are simply uploaded as ‘nodes’ into computer systems. My primary body is there right now in fact, and has been since the 1970s. I believe this is the genesis of the name Operation Indigo Skyfall, as we are their biggest threat. And since the 7.83Hz Hypnosis Program doesn’t work on us to render us totally disconnected from our higher selves like it does on humans, to me this makes more logical sense.

OPERATION INDIGO SKYFALL (SKYNET) (Update 6/11/25) While Operation Indigo Skyfall is a program by the Anunnaki specifically to turn the global atmosphere into an electrolyte solution 'motherboard' that powers Skynet that's already fully online as of May 2020, it was preceded by a decades-long 3-pronged assault against the pineal glands of humankind. The thrust of all three programs combined are all about disconnecting people from their higher selves and to vastly reduce their intellect quotient to make them easily controlled, prior to the launch of Skynet. Understand the intense investment that has been funneled into destroying the very beings that paid the taxes (loosh) to fund these programs is more than the gross domestic products of multiple countries combined. At minimum, trillions $ pr year in 2025 dollars, for more than 80 years. If you’ve ever seen chemtrails in your skies, you’ve seen one of these programs in a bold, in-your-face, broad-daylight fashion. THREE-PRONGED ATTACK PREPARING FOR SKYNET #1 FLUORIDE = WATER CONTAMINATION In its first installation of what would ultimately become a nation-wide invasion of every metropolis, city, town and mud puddle in the US, fluoride was added to public water in Grand Rapids in 1945 to ‘fight tooth decay’. Problem is, fluoride is actually nuclear waste used as rat poison. It is a known neurotoxin more harmful than lead & likened to the toxicity of arsenic for more than 100 years, causing brain damage, spinal cord & nerve networks destruction and has never been shown to diminish the onset of tooth decay. Which every dentist in the country would have banded together to put a stop to back then if it really did that. So who decided to put THAT into your drinking water exactly? Andrew Mellon, 33rd degree Scottish Wrong Freem@son. Shocking Dangers of Fluoride: cancerwisdom dot net; "There has never been a double-blind, randomized clinical trial for fluoridation's effectiveness." [In reality, fluoride itself has been shown to damage teeth in a totally different way than we get through eating, known as fluorosis. Also in reality, all tooth decay is 100% of the time, parasites, not ‘rot’. They say sugar rots teeth; which is a lie. Sugar is a primary food of parasites, along with heavy metals. When you eat sugars then fail to immediately brush & floss, the parasites already in your body (and there are at least millions) rush to the crevices of your palate then wind up burrowing into your teeth’s (actual crystals) valance bands, further destroying them each time the parasites defecate. Anytime you eat anything sugar or sweetened, ALWAYS mix it with an antiparasitic & immediately brush, or rinse your mouth with hydrogen peroxide afterward, never with mouthwash, which is also poison. I will be covering this extensively soon in my new article: 👉PARASITES] As explained in greater detail below in the whistleblower video, fluoride was used by the N@TZIs (Ashke-N@TZI Crypto J3ws that took over Germany then lead that country into WW2, posing as actual Germans, which they absolutely were not. See my article: 👉GERMANY WON WW2 for more) in concentration camps in the 1930s-40s to make prisoners docile. How does that work? Fluoride accumulates at, and attacks, the pineal gland of your body. This is the ‘antenna’ connection to your higher self that generates your reality. The pineal gland then fights back the fluoride toxin, moving it just outside of its ‘theater of the mind’ and surrounds it to seal it off from attacking. This builds up a ‘calcification’ around the pineal gland, which acts as an insulator blocking your signal to the Primal Sound & Light Fields of the Deity Planes where your higher self has always been positioned, inside what is known in human terms as the Unified Field. [For more on the key function of the pineal gland, see my article: 👉 HOW THE HOLOGRAPHIC SIMULATION WORKS] #2 OPERATION INDIGO SKYFALL = AIR CONTAMINATION (not to be confused with Operation Indigo SkyFOLD which is just another red herring distraction to overcome the dissemination of the truth of this existential threat to all mankind.) Beginning as far back as 1972, Operation Indigo Skyfall chemtrail program is one of the most brutally-compartmentalized & ferociously classified operations of all-time. So secret, the tens of thousands of chemtrail jets across the world don’t even land on the continental United States, but refresh their death dust exclusively on private islands, outside of enforced laws. The first part of this program where strontium, barium & aluminum microparticles are being dumped onto all of the lands of earth that kill all life forms, including the trees and forests, is the obvious portion of your extermination, and even that is only a fraction of the story being applied to depopulate the plane(t) from reportedly 8B people (this is a lie, it was less than 5B in 2019) to just 500,000. The heavy metals being reported by laboratories are merely assaying the minerals themselves, not looking deeper into what’s really going on. In reality, these are the minerals used in the manufacture of nanites that are often no larger than just 4 molecules in size. Each one programmed on a quantum level to interconnect with one another, forming larger and larger computer nodes, just like the massive white ‘antennas’ being removed from millions of clot-shot victims around the world since the final push to bring this program to completion began with the ‘Covid’ attempted genocide using mRNA bioweapons. Prior to the huge blood-clots (invasive man-made prions to take over the full functioning of the body) now being retrieved from cadavers and patients suffering this biological invasion, chemtrail direct effects were known as Morgellons Disease where tiny wire-like structures were coming out of people’s skin. However, the ‘disease’ gaslighting was exposed when laboratories began placing them under powerful microscopes and finding they were individual nanotbots ‘holding hands’ to make up the ‘wires’ that were now growing inside people’s bodies. Once zoomed in using scanning electron-microscopy to each one, they not only found the NAME of the companies behind each model, but even serial numbers printed in quantum-dots on their structures. You might recognize this one that clearly says NASA on its surface. The program of chemtrail nanites is to infiltrate the immune system of the human body and generate immunodeficiency so you are unable to fight off diseases and viruses. But there is another, even more primary mission for those molecular-sized robots; to collect at your pineal gland causing calcification and thus not only disrupting your entire system, but placing a crystalline ‘shell’ around it to cut off your ‘spiritual’ access to your higher self. Think of it like scrambling the signal of your cellphone if you had a direct line to ‘god’. As an aside, Cody Snodres, the independent contractor for the C 👁️A of 20 years & hero whistleblower that broke the story of Operation Indigo Skyfall in 2018 in the video below, mentions pathogens being added to chemtrails. These have been solidly identified by labs as recently as a few months ago in late 2024 & again in Jan of 2025 when entire cities were enveloped by huge, totally dry, fog banks of particulates dropped from the skies that caused countless deaths from pneumonia. Referred to by people as ‘Dragon Fog’, the pathogens are actually Serratia Marcescens bacteria (another word for parasites, pathogens, microorganisms & viruses). While I’m sure there have been other parasites added to chemtrails that attack the immune systems of humans and animals other than Serratia Marcescens, this particular species has been used by mil operations now as an ideal biological weapon and regularly upgraded now for many decades. Stay with me, I’m getting to Skynet, but first I have to show you some of the foundational elements of how the invader races have reached this point where humans would have become so mentally effected by this unthinkably massive-scale attack on your pineal gland, they would become psychologically and emotionally unable to fight back, even if they ever did look up in the sky and cognitively register the fact that contrails (endothermic sublimation or ‘fog’) emitted by the compressed-air turbines of jets dissipate in about 8-20 seconds, not hang in the air for hours and hours. [And for those now wondering what I mean about jets using compressed air as forward thrust in commercial passenger jets, that’s a story that is going to surely hack you off when you find out that passenger jets have always been levitation/time crafts since they were introduced to the public in the 1940s. They don’t run on fuel, but on high-altitude atmospheric neutrino-to-ion conversion harvesting (also known as ‘Secondary Emissions’ as well as ‘Neutrino Events’). So every ‘fuel increase’ markup for local and international flights has always been absolutely made-up, since what they run on is eternally-free energy. See my article for more: 👉JET FUEL HOAX] #3 M0NSANT0 = FOOD CONTAMINATION This company does *not make better-performing corn & veggies: it is a bioweapons company. John Francis Queeny, a Freem@son, that founded this genocidal operation in 1901 produces 90% of the world’s genetically-altered seeds & is responsible for developing Agent Orange, a defoliant used during the Vietnam War, containing a highly toxic chemical known as dioxin that caused permanent health issues for thousands of war veterans. Later it used this same type of murderous chemical in Roundup to k!ll weeds around your home, coating your world with glyphosate that changes the sex in frogs and turns them ghey and sterile. Guess what other life forms it changes the sex in and makes them sterile? Ever witnessed the most celebrated triathlete of the 20th century suddenly pop up and claim he was now a ‘woman’? How about watching as our youngest generation enters the workforce, most of whom don’t even know what sex they are? That’s your M0nsanto working hard to ensure the human race is eradicated from the all-queer-all-the-time world Freem@sons envision as their true utopia in the “500m sustainable population” as etched into granite on the Georgia Guidestones. A number mirrored by United Nation’s Agenda 2030 to be achieved by the year 2050. Their goal is literally 👉your depopulation and those that are left, will be 100% ghey. Diddly Parties nightly! GMO foods that are grown using M0nsanto’s “Roundup Ready” fertilizer that is made with glyphosate toxins are absorbed by the gut and then travel directly to the pineal gland. This is the Anunnaki’s ‘Trifecta’ attack on your most precious organ of your body. The very organ that dictates all the parameters of your reality held within your Krystal Seed Atom Keylon you enter into manifestation with, commonly referred to as your ‘soul’. In more accurate terms, your Krystal Seed Atom is like a Bluetooth module that tethers your awareness from your higher self in the Primal Sound and Light Fields of the Deity Planes, to your physical avatar here on the ground through the wireless ‘pale silver cord’. The Krystal Seed Atom is located in the middle of your pineal gland. [For more on the Krystal Seed Atom, see my articles: 👉THE HISTORY OF THE CHIMERA, & 👉THE KEYS TO HEAVEN] As Cody points out in the video, this is not a matter of hitting your pineal gland with three doses of toxins, but because of how these three chemicals of fluoride, nano aluminum & glyphosate interact with each other, creates synergy, or a dynamic magnification of the toxicity effect by a factor of 125x greater than any one individual dose would achieve. This makes the Trifecta assault astronomically devastating to your connection to the pale silver cord and your wireless connection to the ‘real’ you that’s running your avatar in the deity planes. Sort of like taking your 4 yr old to the mall and just letting them go on their own. Now, with your virtually disabled pineal gland reality-casting component out of the way, enter the true teeth behind Operation Indigo Skyfall; Skynet. SKYNET This is a subject I won’t be able to offer much tangible, solid evidence on, as it goes deeply into quantum physics. All of which terms describing each step in the chain to achieve ‘if this, then that’, are shielded from public understanding by design. The power of computers is vastly beyond what the human mind has been given the ability to process, also by design. [As I’ve covered before, the Chimera brain you work with now, since the total body-invasion of the garden of E-Dan drama, is fitted with breaker switches that are designed to keep certain subjects hidden from your reality-view. When exposed to any of these, a switch is thrown at the base of the brain within the totally counterfeit ‘reptilian brain’ that introduces feral, animalistic type of wavelengths into your thought processes. The switch then disengages your sentient thoughts, shutting off either temporarily, or permanently, your processor (brain). Simply put: if you see a creature you’re not supposed to, or other ‘proprietary’ mechanisms of the invader races (which are in fact all around you every minute of everyday) that doesn’t fit with the ‘Mayberry RFD’ Chimera Reality simulation overlay, or if you experience too much trauma, you will simply black out, delete that memory when you wake up, or in extreme cases, pass away from fright. The realm of quantum computing will have the same effect on humans as well. You might learn all about the subject, but secretly in the background your memories will strangely be deleted next time you come back to it, unless your cells vibrate at a higher resonance than 7.83Hz. [For more on the inorganic organs now in our bodies, see my article: 👉HUMAN ALIEN IMPLANTS] Nonetheless, I can simplify the thrust of Skynet for you in broad terms here. Just understand that Skynet was explained to me in person by the keeper. I didn’t make Skynet up on my own, I wasn’t prompted by the Skynet mentioned in the documentary series The Terminator, and I certainly wasn’t prepared to learn there could be something as all-powerful reigning over our world. Chemtrails, besides dropping immune-system pathogens on you, cutting off your connection to your higher self through nano aluminum particles, contains other metals (nanites) that act together like salts in a body of water, turning the sky itself (also water, just very thinned down) into an electrolyte solution, meaning it can now conduct signals, just like a motherboard on a computer. The hard drive and RAM are already there in the form of deuterium microcrystals, absolutely saturating our skies at all times. Each crystal can be used for different applications, and many of them connected together through lensing (similar to network covalent bonding them together) can be combined to do heavy tasks, such as create hurricanes, floods, gale-force winds, everything you would ascribe to mother nature. But more than just that, Skynet is a ‘sentient quantum computer’ as explained to me, that can identify every person on earth instantly anywhere they are, because it is quantum-entangled to each person’s own unique DNA resonant frequency. This gives Skynet access to not only record every word you say, but every thought you think. This is done through Bloch Chain (Bloch Sphere entanglement technology that civilians call ‘blockchain’) through using each person's blood samples from the bottom of their Long Form Certificate of Live Birth taken at the hospital, and further from 81.3% of the world population who took the convid tests that were also secretly the actual jab itself, in addition to genetic harvesting. Genealogy companies like 23andMe also provide genetic materials to Skynet to make it possible to not only track you, but 'turn you off' if you're from a bloodline the highest-up ETs don't want here. Further, its able to simply 'shut off' any part of your body, taking over complete control like an RC car, or, simply turn it off as mentioned a moment ago, as in unalived. And do so instantly no matter where they stand on or in earth. Since you are already a radio-controlled bioelectronic device, any cell in your body can be turned into anything, including c@ncer, or any disease you can name. It can also be turned into poison itself. [For a small addition to this topic, see my article: 👉SKYNET] NAME OF THE OPERATION Cody summarizes the name of Operation Indigo Skyfall as having come from the fact that all of the chemical effects it produces in the human body are focused to the pineal gland, and, in the energy centers of the 7 main chakras (these are toroidal energy generators along the spine and skeletal structure) that cast off differing colors of light as seen through photometers or electromagnetic frequency analyzers that are used to detect biophotons, the Third Eye chakra emitted by the pineal gland is factually Indigo in color. So that’s what inspired this name of the operation. However, I would like to submit a different theory that links to the human Third Eye chakra, but actually originates from a different target: Indigos themselves. There are 500,000 ‘b00ts on the ground’ Indigos that have been assisting humans during their time of captivity now for hundreds of millions of years. You have called us witches & warlocks in the past, medicine men/women, Sufis, the Whirling Dervish, Indigos, Starseeds, Rainbow Children and many others, including Djedi Knights in more ancient times. They are actually known as the Guardian Alliance of the Emerald Covenant, peace-keepers of the ‘Turaneusiam’ Human Elohim Project. Indigos come into earth’s realm mind-wiped and alone, just as humans do. All they bring with them are slightly higher clair abilities they can use to fight an invisible war protecting the developing avatars from as much torture as they would otherwise experience. There is no group alive the invader races are more concerned about than Indigos, as if unified, there is no force on this plane that could stop them, and the invaders know it. What they fear is our higher frequency that gives us access to ‘cellular memory’ that tells us we’re ‘on mission’ and the instinct of how to serve our roles. That is why Indigos are hunted down since before they are even born, by tracking their frequency, which is 250x higher than that of the Human Elohim. We are harvested for gov programs beginning at the time of birth & given to high ranking gov and Freem@son officials to raise and torture through MK-Ultra abuse, given friends, lovers & mates who are secretly handlers that torture us even more to keep us in line, and in many cases are abducted and placed into stasis in chambers such as at Project Stargate inside Cheyenne Mtn (N0RAD) as mentioned recently by the AI hybrid Agent Mockingbird stated from above-top-secret records there are tens of thousands of our ‘primary bodies’ being held there, sometimes then cloned as physical worker slaves, & sometimes our awarenesses are simply uploaded as ‘nodes’ into computer systems. My primary body is there right now in fact, and has been since the 1970s. I believe this is the genesis of the name Operation Indigo Skyfall, as we are their biggest threat. And since the 7.83Hz Hypnosis Program doesn’t work on us to render us totally disconnected from our higher selves like it does on humans, to me this makes more logical sense. You can decide that on your own. [For more on this subject, see my article: 👉7.83Hz HUMAN HYPNOSIS] The apocalypse we are in now is the final battle on Tara earth prior to the separation, so absolute, total control over the life force is critical to the Anunnaki to maximize the number of signature spirit essences who will be going with them to their new prison host in the Weasadrax time matrix.
