A crazy tax idea for Elon Musk.
He could become the biggest OZ investor in history.
The IPO is the trigger.
SpaceX goes public June 12 under the ticker SPCX and the valuation might go to $2 trillion. The largest IPO ever.
Insider lockup runs 180 days. It expires around December 15.
The day it ends, insiders can sell. Every share sold throws off a capital gain. For Elon, holding billions in SpaceX paper, the gain is staggering.
Under the new Opportunity Zone rules that take effect January 1, 2027, any capital gain rolled into a Qualified Opportunity Fund within 180 days of the sale earns a five-year tax deferral.
Sell in late December 2026. Invest in early 2027. The tax bill is not due until 2032.
If the QOF investment is held for ten years, the entire appreciation comes out tax-free. No capital gains. No depreciation recapture. Zero.
But Elon isn't going to suddenly start investing in apartments or hotels in low income areas. He is going to remain obsessed with investing in his core businesses.
Good news.
The town of Starbase, Texas sits inside an Opportunity Zone census tract. Grimes County, where Musk is building a $55 billion semiconductor fab called Terafab, has three OZ tracts of its own.
Elon could sell SPCX shares after lockup. Roll the gain into his own Qualified Opportunity Fund. Use that fund to build infrastructure at Starbase or finance the Terafab site.
Then lease the asset back to the public company.
SpaceX pays the rent. The rent is deductible to SpaceX. The depreciation flows to Elon and offsets his other income for a decade.
Then he sells the QOF interest in 2037.
No tax on the appreciation. No recapture on the depreciation. The original gain that funded it all was deferred to 2032.
The IPO funds the infrastructure. The infrastructure runs the company. The taxpayer pays nothing for ten years and almost nothing forever.
This is the crazy idea.
The mechanics are real. The zones are real. The IPO is real.
I am glad to advise his tax team. 🤠

@ThierryBorgeat I'd say because they pushed too far on prices, go look at there profits from 2019 to 2025 like what trippled? That's just price gauging not inflation

Costco spots a recession before economists do.
When members shift from beef to chicken, then to canned tuna, something in the economy is bending.
You don't need a model. You need a checkout counter and millions of members with long memories.
Thierry from arvy 🇨🇭@ThierryBorgeat
A retailer with no advertising budget. Four thousand products on the shelf. A hot dog priced the same as it was when Reagan was president. Costco shouldn't be the most powerful brand in retail. But it is. The rule is almost annoyingly simple: cap markups at 14%. Most stores are at 20% or higher. Every dollar of efficiency gets handed back to the customer as a lower price. That's the flywheel. Lower prices bring more members. More members bring better supplier deals. Better deals bring lower prices. Run it for forty years and nobody can catch you. Ninety percent of members renew. Every year. For decades. You don't get loyalty like that from coupons. You get it from making people feel, every single visit, like they got away with something. Strip away the warehouses and the hot dogs and what's left is a simple decision: the customer eats first. Almost nobody has the discipline to actually do it.

@WhiteHouse @DeptofWar Mehh nothing special here there not showing the good stuff and what about Antarctica too time for all of it to come out !

PRESIDENTIAL UNSEALING FOR UAP ENCOUNTERS.
Per President Trump's directive, the @DeptofWar has declassified & released unresolved UAP records. This is an unprecedented level of transparency, no other admin has gone this far.
Files now live on WAR.GOV/UFO — additional files will be released by the Dept. of War on a rolling basis.📂

@DeptofWar Pointless garbage in these releases, nothing new that hasn't been seen or passed around, how bout all of the real truth then we can go onto all the Antarctica stuff release 👍

Idea for invention-
Most people don’t have garages
Live in apartments with no covered parking
There needs to be some sort of car cover/exoskeleton people can buy to protect against weather (including hail) as well as theft

Yesterday, four institutions settled tokenized United States Treasury debt across borders, across banks, and across time zones on a public blockchain in under five seconds. Nobody connected it to what happened the same day at Morgan Stanley. Read them together and the two-tier architecture stops being a thesis and becomes infrastructure. On May 6, Mastercard, Ondo Finance, JPMorgan via its Kinexys blockchain platform, and Ripple completed the first near-real-time cross-border redemption of tokenized U.S. Treasuries on a public ledger integrated with interbank settlement rails. Ondo’s OUSG fund, representing short-term Treasury holdings with approximately $610 million in assets, processed the redemption on the XRP Ledger in under five seconds. Mastercard’s Multi-Token Network routed the instruction to Kinexys. Kinexys debited Ondo’s blockchain deposit account. JPMorgan’s correspondent banking delivered USD to Ripple’s Singapore bank account. The entire workflow executed outside traditional banking hours. Ian De Bode, president of Ondo Finance, called it the first time tokenized Treasuries had settled across borders and banks in near real time. The XRP Ledger was chosen for a reason that matters more than speed. XRPL tokenizes assets via native Issued Currencies with built-in Trust Lines that give issuers the ability to freeze, authorize, and restrict transfers at the protocol level without smart contracts. Ondo controls who holds OUSG. Mastercard controls the routing. JPMorgan controls the fiat leg. Every node in the settlement chain has a compliance switch. The blockchain is public. The assets on it obey. On the same day, Morgan Stanley began actively testing direct cryptocurrency trading on its E*Trade platform for 8.6 million self-directed clients at 0.50% per transaction. The bank already launched MSBT, the lowest-fee spot Bitcoin ETF at 0.14%, on April 8. It advises clients to allocate two to four percent to Bitcoin. It plans a proprietary digital wallet for the second half of 2026. Morgan Stanley is building every on-ramp to Bitcoin, the one public blockchain that has no Trust Lines, no issuer freeze, no compliance switch, and no admin key at any layer of its protocol. Two public blockchains. Two architectures. One has freeze switches at every node. The other has none. Both are being integrated into Wall Street’s plumbing on the same day by some of the largest financial institutions on the planet. The GENIUS Act mandates freeze capabilities for stablecoins. The CLARITY Act classifies Bitcoin as a digital commodity because it lacks them. Mastercard is building the controllable tier’s settlement infrastructure with a $1.8 billion BVNK acquisition and more than 100 partners in its Crypto Partner Program. Morgan Stanley is building the uncontrollable tier’s distribution infrastructure across ETF, spot, advisory, and wallet layers. Bessent froze $344 million in USDT on April 24 under Operation Economic Fury. Nobody froze a single satoshi because nobody can. The distinction is no longer public versus private blockchain or crypto versus banks. It is controllable versus uncontrollable, and both sides are now being built by the institutions that once rejected both. Mastercard and JPMorgan are building rails for money that obeys. Morgan Stanley is building on-ramps to money that computes. The architecture is live. Both tiers are being constructed simultaneously, by the same class of institution, for different purposes, on different ledgers. One settles tokenized Treasuries in five seconds with freeze switches at every layer. The other settles value in ten minutes with no switches at all. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…

@the5blairs Way more manipulating of price going on now than ever before.

David Schwartz argued that if rational investors truly believed XRP could reach $10,000, they'd already be bidding it to $20.
ETH was $1 when David sold. It went to $4,800. David was 4800x too soon.
A 4,800× from today puts $XRP over $6,700.
The rational investor argument assumes the market already knows what it's looking at.
It didn't know with ETH.

RFK Jr. says that within five years, satellites owned by Bill Gates "will be able to look at every square inch of the planet 24 hours a day."
"They're putting in 5G to harvest our data and control our behavior. Digital currency that will allow them to punish us from a distance and cut off our food supply."

🚨 FIA president Ben Sulayem has confirmed F1 will return to V8 engines
"It's coming, oh yes, it is coming. At the end of the day, it’s a matter of time. In 2031, the FIA will have the power to do it, without any votes from the power unit manufacturers."
"You will hear about it very soon. It will not be something like now, which is a 46-54 split. There will be very minimal [electric] power."
"I'm targeting 2030. One year before the maturity [of the regulations]. it will happen. But let's say the manufacturers don't [vote for it], then one more year and it will be done. It's not a matter of, 'Do I need their support?' No, it will be done. V8 is coming."

This is the chess Donald Trump is playing that the BRICS and the federal Reserve don't understand. Trump’s Strategic Bitcoin Reserve is the ultimate checkmate against the Fed. The agenda of the BRICS is simple: de-dollarization. But Donald Trump is one step ahead. If the dollar crashes, risk assets will go up. The strategic reserve is to help weaponize Bitcoin against endless Fed money printing and BRICS de-dollarization efforts. The deep state hates it because a strong US Bitcoin reserve strengthens the dollar through hard money competition instead of weakening it. BlackRock and Wall Street ETFs serve as the on-ramp, but Trump’s reserve ensures America becomes the undisputed crypto capital of the world. A major announcement is expected in the coming weeks that could force institutions and even adversaries to treat Bitcoin as true reserve-grade money. Satoshi dreamed of sound money. Trump is turning it into American policy. The critics screaming about conflicts of interest are the same voices that pushed for CBDCs and total financial control. Donald Trump is not a saint, but I'll choose him again and again. MAGA plus Bitcoin equals real financial freedom.

If SCOTUS rules in Favor of Cook?
(Denying President power to remove Fed governors “For Cause”)
I think We are fucked till midterms.
Save act is not passed
Yet, steps are being taken to secure the midterms
1-SCOTUS ruling unconstitutional “race based districts” immediately swings in favor for republicans
2-E.O. On securing elections - denying federal funds for any state that does not have “clean” voter rolls
3-Prosecutions on election Fraud. Tulsi findings for 2020 theft and escalation of therein
4-awaiting SCOTUS ruling on ballots arriving after Election Day
5-expect to see more prosecutions for fraud, russiagate, covid, etc the closer we get to November
The problem we will come up against is generating turn out
Economic situation is shit all around (groundwork is laid for productivity yet that takes time to actually bring results and November may be too soon)
I think we all will need to work our districts to ensure we take home the wins we need so we can solidify the agenda.
Gotta think too that with a greater majority we can get better language in current bills.
It’s a shit deal all around, we all expected more to be done by now. Yet as you can see the rot is deep and the world is big. To be honest we should be thankful that we are where we are because of Trump leadership and the reforms we have gotten done. Yet, it’s a century worth of dereliction that needs undoing.
