I wandered on the wrong feed again. Saw Richard Heart shittalk Do Kwon.
Lol Richard you made a revolving ponzi-scheme then survived by having people manually throw away the inflation by locking it all in the same account, willingly!
How much would the price of HEX drop if that sacrifice contract was opened up? Exactly, that's where the Anchor type ponzi-inflation went.
Meanwhile, there's absolutely no reason to sacrifice anything, as pulse is *literally* just an Ethereum clone. Says so right on the github:

Good news, everyone!
The $MBB afterhours jump to 105 was a glitch. Instead, it has continued to crash, and is now at an ALL TIME LOW!
LOWER THAN 2008/2007! THESE ARE TRIPLE A HOUSING BOND PRICES!
It's NOT "junk" that's going first this time! Because the Fed bailed that out!

COMPANY UPDATE!
Alright gang, well, i told ya i would update ya through this process, and that includes the bad times.
I went to the patent agency, and they didn't want to help me patent my idea. One guy flat out refused to believe it works, the other was HIGHLY skeptical.
While i can't say anything about the conversation or invention due to secrecy demands, i can say one thing:
They're wrong. Dead wrong. The first guy was over-educated so he couldn't believe my explanation, and the (more experienced) second guy couldn't figure it out.

I'm sad to hear today about @CasPiancey being doxed by @ofnumbers. I hate bullies, so you know, since Tim wants to focus attention on who Cas is, lets find out who Tim is.
I don't mean his name. I mean his work, which is what matters. Cas's work needs no introduction on my feed.
But Tim has put forth his thoughts in his own crypto protocol called "Tau Protocol" or @tauprotocol.
Understandably, If Cas were to criticize the protocol, though fully capable, there'd always be an aspect of bias and, as a "no-coiner", can easily be dismissed by the cult.

Just so everybody knows where we're at with the #gold backed #ruble:
The announcement i'm waiting for now is the Russian central bank buying rubles for gold (selling gold) at a set price. I'd expect this to be higher than 5k per gram, more like 6k a gram.
This'd be a soft-peg
Right now, Russia's waiting for the RUB to appreciate further before implementing an upper band. If the RUB is worth less per gram than the peg they've got in mind, people would immediately sell it for gold and it'd drain reserves. Hence the delay.

...Hang on.
I'm browsing through #UST and #LUNA trying to find "the ponzi glitch".
Thing is, $UST is already backed by $LUNA through it's value. Sell Luna for UST and vice versa. Algo stablecoin.
But app.anchorprotocol.com says UST's backed by $4,5B worth of bLuna collateral.
To the tune of 45.798M bLuna.
Now that's fine, except... bLuna stands for Bonded Luna. How do you get bonded Luna? By staking regular Luna. It's how you get voting power.
So bLuna's backed by the value of Luna which is backed by the value of UST backed by bLuna.
It's a ponzi.

Thread! I found something.
🚨ALERT!🚨
Shipping/Freight are about to become ALOT more expensive. With the war in #Ukraine, it's time to talk bunkers.
In short - nasty stuff. When you refine crude oil into petroleum products, you get lots of byproducts. There's still energy in these things, but also more impurities and it's more viscous - meaning thicker, harder to pump.

....Oh great. Guess this was inevitable.
I think the Repo Crisis (from 2019) might be back.
@DoombergT i'd hate to ask you to look into this but i don't have a doomberg terminal, this is all i get.
Look at the DTCC repo *volume*. Blue line's $20B. dtcc.com/charts/dtcc-gc…
The reason why it might be happening now is because taper is ending QE now.
The Repo Crisis went away because QE got started with the Covid crash. In February of 2020, the Fed was still doing "temporary" overnight repo to the tune of $60B not-QE.
We've dropped below that now.

Yknow what?
I just had a stunning revelation.
There's actually *no reason at all* for QE to stop BEFORE a rate hike. It just got started because rates hit 0% and going lower wasn't an option.
-Fed "has to taper" because of inflation worries.
-Taper causes stock market crash.
-Money printer goes brrrrrr.
-Bond market implodes.
-Money printer can't stop.
-Policy has always been claimed not to be inflationary.
-Logical solution:
And Seeking Alpha/Bondsupermart. Picking a random bond cause i'm lazy.
1. Country garden: Fucked.
Their market cap is now 1/3rd of enterprise value, which i'm using as a quick check, should be obvious what problems are facing the entire sector now. The closer those values are, the less problems their in.

AH fuck it, i'll join the bandwagon, since people asked (and i don't wanna type this story in DMs).
Why #contagion will continue to spread, why Xi will NOT change course, why it's The Federal Reserve's fault, why Hyperinflation's next, and more!
First off, Why Now?
Evergrande's been Teetering for more then a year. Naturally, things have to come to a head at some point, but why now?
I think the answer is found in Commodities. Specifically the fact that building important stuff like #Iron and #Copper have been mooning.

As we must look forever forward; with the current corrections i did a *little* bit of work (don't expect more) to find more deep value.
Now that #Uranium's gone up, and hopefully #Silver is next in a flight to safety;
With #Palladium correcting, #Platinum's becoming VERY cheap.
The last times it was below $900, was in 2020 (panic), 2018 (bear market), 2016 (double bottom), 2008 (panic), and 2005/2004 (bull market).
Meanwhile, the outlook for #platinum is far more positive now:
- ICE cars being phased out before 2075 *is a pipedream*.
Rhodium tends to go ballistic in the final phase of market bubbles. Nobody knows why, but it happened before the 2000 bubble blew, same with the 2008 bubble...
...and it's showing clear topping patterns.

Shouldn't have touched my friend.
Don't listen to somebody who runs a literal ponzi AND pyramid scheme @goldsilver_pros. Thanks for posting a rebuttal page Richard that makes it easy.
This was a company that was basically pumping its shareprice with "ad-hoc announcements", meaning literally just lying.

NEW RESEARCH!
This time, going after $ARKK - Well, the lot of em.
I heard that #Cathiewood had obtained a large amount of the float of some Illiquid stocks, and i wanted to see how big the problem was.
And i found out this woman has no clue what she's investing in. Thread 👇
So what i did;
Courtesy of arktrack.com and seekingalpha.com, i went through $ARKK's most illiquid names, to see how difficult it would be to liquidate those positions - AND to see if the companies are valued anywhere near correctly.
So i looked at some stats.

I'll do you one better. There WAS a catalyst. It's just already passed:
My comment was that a bloomberg terminal is expensive, but spending rent money on options is no problemo.

Yknow i gotta comment on this.
@MacleodFinance Help me out here. I'm reading more and more that "hyperinflation is defined as 50% a month" - but that's *new*.
Years ago when i looked it up i found "economists don't agree on where it starts, but the general line is 10% a month".
I can't remember *EVER* reading about ANY consensus for the decade i've been studying economy and looking up US financial history and general world economic history.
And i'm sorry, but 50% a month is 600% A YEAR!
I'm pretty sure the common man isn't gonna wait that long.
