People who was born in 2000-2005 what do you do for a living?

@Overdose_AI Because it's all smoke and mirrors and you probably don't understand anything about economic cycle s, money rotation, and history.

Can someone explain to me how $BTC ~ 3x'd itself during the presidency of an allegedly anti crypto President But struggling now under the most pro crypto President we ever had?

I'm a currency strategist at Treasury. Yesterday the dollar hit a four-year low. Worst single day since April. Down 9% for the year. Weakest since 2022. The President said "I think it's great." He's right. It is great. For us. There's a document. You probably haven't read it. It's called "A User's Guide to Restructuring the Global Trading System." We call it the Mar-a-Lago Accord. It was written by the guy who now sits on the Federal Reserve. Before that, he ran the Council of Economic Advisors. The document says to weaken the dollar. On purpose. As policy. We did. The thesis is simple. A strong dollar makes American exports expensive. A weak dollar makes them cheap. If we want factories, we need a cheap currency. If we need a cheap currency, we need to devalue. If we need to devalue, we need to do it slowly. So nobody notices. Until they do. Yesterday they noticed. Swiss Franc hit 15-year highs. Gold hit all-time highs. The yen strengthened. The euro strengthened. Everything strengthened. Except us. That's the plan. People ask if I'm worried. About the decline. About what it means. I say I'm "constructive." Constructive means the plan is working. Here's what nobody tells you about currencies. They're not markets. They're policies. Central banks don't observe exchange rates. They create them. The rate check we did on January 23rd? That wasn't observation. That was intervention. We called the trading desks. We asked for prices. The market understood. The dollar dropped. Mission accomplished. The Secretary wants a weaker dollar. The President wants a weaker dollar. The Accord says weaker dollar. Everyone agrees. Except the people holding dollars. But they don't vote on currency policy. They just experience it. --- Let me tell you what a weaker dollar means for you. Everything imported costs more. Your purchasing power declines. Your savings buy less. Your vacation is more expensive. Your electronics cost more. Your gas costs more. Your groceries cost more. That's not inflation. That's "competitiveness." --- In 1971, Nixon ended the gold standard. He said it was temporary. Fifty-five years ago. Still temporary. Back then, one dollar bought one dollar's worth of goods. Today, that same dollar buys 12.5 cents worth. We've devalued 87.5%. Over 55 years. At 3.85% per year. Compounding. --- 700% cumulative inflation. That's not a bug. That's a feature. Debt becomes cheaper to repay. Wages lag behind prices. Assets appreciate. If you own things, you win. If you earn things, you lose. That's monetary policy. --- The national debt is 100% of GDP. It'll be 134% by 2035. You know how you pay down 134% of GDP in debt? You don't. You inflate it away. You devalue the currency it's denominated in. You make the number smaller by making the unit smaller. That's not default. That's "monetary flexibility." --- Consumer confidence just hit 2014 lows. People feel something is wrong. They can't articulate it. They just know things cost more. They know their paycheck goes less far. They know something broke. Nothing broke. This is the machine working. --- 89% of economists agree. If the Fed loses independence, risk premiums go up. Treasury yields spike. Borrowing costs explode. Growth slows. So we're very careful. We don't say we're taking independence. We say we're "rethinking coordination." Same outcome. Different press release. --- The President said he could move the dollar "like a yo-yo." Up or down. He's not wrong. Currency is a policy lever. We pull it. You feel it. --- Sweden's pension funds are selling Treasuries. Denmark's pension funds are selling Treasuries. China is selling Treasuries. They're buying gold instead. Smart. They read the Accord. --- There's a term in the markets now. "Sell America." It means foreign investors are reducing exposure. To our stocks. To our bonds. To our currency. They see what we're doing. They're protecting themselves. You should too. But we won't tell you that. --- The dollar is the world's reserve currency. For now. The Accord says we can keep that status. While also devaluing. Having it both ways. That's the theory. We'll see about the practice. --- Gold at $5,000. Silver at $110. Bitcoin at whatever Bitcoin is at. These aren't bubbles. These are exit signs. People are leaving the dollar. Not because they hate America. Because they read the policy. --- I'm updating my LinkedIn. "Led currency transformation at Treasury." Transformation is accurate. We transformed the dollar. From strong. To competitive. --- The President says the dollar is "doing great." He means it. It's doing exactly what we wanted. Going down. On schedule. According to plan. --- Your savings are doing less great. But nobody asked you. --- I have a chart on my wall. Purchasing power of the dollar since 1913. It starts at 100. It ends at 3. A 97% decline. Over 113 years. I look at it every morning. And I think: We have 3% left to go. --- The dollar is doing great. Exactly as designed. You just weren't supposed to notice. Until it was done. --- You noticed. But it's already done. It was done in 1971. Everything since then has been execution. Slow. Steady. Relentless. 3.85% per year. Compounding. For 55 years. And counting. --- "I think it's great." That's what he said. That's what we think. That's what the Accord says. That's what the policy achieves. The dollar is doing exactly what it's supposed to. Declining. Slowly. So slowly you think it's natural. It's not. It's policy. --- My bonus is paid in dollars. But I keep it in gold. --- That's the difference between making policy. And living under it.

@OwenBenjamin The copium is unreal. Id rather own all gold and have "gained nothing" and kept my purchasing power versus whatever you have your money in. Just say you dont own any. Just say you dont like to be wealthy. Just say you dont understand the history of capitalism or money. Fucktard.

This is funny but there’s a type of gold guy that hasn’t internalized yet that he isn’t currently “gaining” anything Gold and silver are exactly the same today as they were last year. The meaning stick is shrinking

@VaughnHillyard This is such a pipe dream it's not even close to being realistic. This is what the UAE thought Dubai would look like for miles and miles in end. There is not enough labor, materials, or water for this to happen

@OliverJia1014 I dont know why people are so scared of this. People eat marshmallow and peanut butter all the time on their own. Wanna take it up a notch? Pan fry the sandwich in butter 🔥

This monstrosity is the most American sandwich ever created. Never in my life have I ever eaten a fluffernutter sandwich and I think I’m good keeping it that way.
