People think the Iranian economy will collapse without oil exports. It won’t. They survived the entire pandemic without oil exports. People think the Iranians are being so stubborn because they are fanatical jihadists. They are actually being stubborn right now because they have cards to play. And they have a strong hand. The only cards America has left to play are send 1,000,000 ground soldiers to Iran - while we are low on ammo and our economy is about to collapse... ...or regime change Israel. The Iranians are being rationally self interested right now. They are using the leverage they have to get their money back, stop being attacked, end the wholesale massacre of women and children in Gaza and Lebanon. If America had the ability to stop them from the air with bombs, the Trump would have. We don’t. Time to get real.

Announcing Ethlabs: a non-profit R&D lab for Ethereum and ETH Our mission is to make Ethereum the settlement layer of the global economy. The internet became global because shared protocols created a common language between networks. Private systems remained useful, but bounded. Finance is approaching a similar moment. As value, assets, and markets become digital, the world needs shared settlement infrastructure. Ethereum is uniquely positioned to become that shared base layer, the neutral foundation on which users, institutions, and agents can transact without intermediation. What we believe: • We believe credible neutrality matters. Ten years of uptime and the lowest counterparty risk. Ground that cannot be pulled away by any one country, institution, company, or person. • We believe ETH matters. The most valuable, programmable store of value. A decade of broad distribution, deep liquidity in onchain markets, and maximally trustless asset on Ethereum. • We believe DeFi matters. Markets, liquidity, credit, exchange, and coordination, open to anyone. • We believe adoption matters. Principles do not change the world until people benefit from them. We sit between two worlds: real usage from the builders at the frontier, and the protocol that has to support it. We work with users, applications, wallets, L2s, infrastructure teams, institutions, ETH holders, core devs and researchers, then turn what they actually need into protocol work, shared standards, infrastructure, and shipped products. Ethlabs is independent but Ethereum is a shared project. We are one node in a much larger network of stewards. This is the multi-node future. We have spent the better part of the past decade contributing to Ethereum core research and development. We are opinionated and transparent. We move with urgency, learn in public, and course-correct when we’re wrong. We are building a lean, talent-dense team for people who want to do the most important work of their careers: [email protected]

The Technical-Industrial Complex needs programmable money. The Financial-Industrial Complex provides it through government debt markets and sovereign-issued gilts. One finances the system. The other builds the infrastructure. Programmable money, digital identity, AI surveillance, predictive policing, and real-time financial monitoring all become far more powerful when integrated into a single architecture. That’s why I see CBDCs, tokenised government debt, digital identity systems, and surveillance technologies as converging rather than developing independently. The debt funds the infrastructure. The infrastructure enables the control. The control secures the debt. In that sense, the police and surveillance state is not merely a political project. It’s a financial one. The Technical-Industrial Complex supplies the technology. The Financial-Industrial Complex supplies the capital. Together they build the architecture for programmable society.

The chicken tractor is tried and true at this point. Decades of innovation while competing in a rigged system against government subsidized factory farms has seen the business model innovate and flourish. There is a business called pasture bird which uses the largest barns I've seen. We are at the point where several pasture Barn businesses can produce as much meat as a single factory farm. What's more, they come with a host of advantages that the factory farms don't have, and none of the negatives. Because it's a movable structure, the land can be used for different products. Its just pasture, after all. Chicken could be switched out for sheep and cows, hay, etc. The soil is improved over time, increasing the value of the land. Any additional 'cost' of the product compared to a factory farm is simply an investment in the land and higher quality meat. The barns are doubtless cheaper to make and maintain than CAFOs. They require less cleaning and ventilation because they just move away from the chicken litter. But most importantly, from a nationalist perspective, the pasture barn model is more durable and secure in times of conflict. These barns do not burn like CAFOs, they cannot be easily destroyed. Having several local farmers each with multiple barns decentralizes the production of meat, spreading the money and risk out.

Our Strategic Petroleum Reserves are historically low sitting at approximately 340 million barrels. Our SPR hasn’t been this low since 1983. The U.S. uses between 20 to 23 million barrels of oil per day. Our SPR is extremely low because Trump released 172 million barrels of oil because of his Iran war and Biden released 180 million barrels of oil in ‘22 because of the Ukraine Russia war. If America has so much oil why are Americans paying the price for wars we don’t support.

We now must contemplate how the killing of Ayatollah’s father and small grand-nieces during what was supposed to be a period of negotiation is impacting Iran’s current diplomatic strategy in Geneva. In fact, it is very possible that the Iranians understand that the US has around 60 days of oil in its SPR left, and once they breach the minimums there within 60 days, Tehran knows that the US economy goes off a cliff, and Trump and his political future end pretty humiliatingly. It is very possible that the Iranians have no intention of making a deal, and they just want to get revenge on Trump.

BREAKING: Iran’s negotiating delegation is now walking out of the Switzerland talks in protest of Trump’s new threat to “hit Iran very hard again, just like we did last week, only harder,” with talks now fully suspended, per Tasnim. Iran’s Parliament Speaker Ghalibaf, who heads the Iranian negotiating team, has also personally responded saying “we don’t take American threats seriously” and warns “our armed forces are ready to give them an answer in a different way.”

Well this is awkward…

No damn country better interfere in our elections.  Period.  Amen. 100%.  But we will influence (reportedly) who the prime minister of Israel will be in the October election there.  Uh, what?

A system where you have to justify your income to a government that doesn't have to justify its spending is inherently illegitimate.

In a world where trust between countries was effectively annihilated last few years there is only one global system which can serve as humanity's / AI coordination layer with a built-in reserve currency. ETH. Everything set for 100k2030 and 1M longterm.

The decline of US global hegemony means the end of a scheme whereby, until very recently, the 5% of humanity that lives in the United States got to enjoy a quarter of the world’s energy supplies and industrial products and a third of its raw materials. That vast extravagance, and the equally huge but temporary imbalances in patterns of global wealth flows and distributions that made it possible, underlie everything that most Americans think of as normal lifestyles. The news next to nobody wants to hear is that those lifestyles are going away forever. All of us will have to get used to living much more frugally in the years ahead. Yes, this applies to our kleptocratic upper class too―the supposed net worth of the wealthy these days is mostly a matter of financial hallucinations propped up by a baroque system of absurd overvaluations of notional assets that will not stand even the feeblest price discovery. It’s a long road down for all of us, and those who think they are perched in the catbird’s seat just now face the unwelcome realization that they have further to fall than most.

Blaming Ethereum for crypto’s failures is peak stupidity. - ETH killers rugged retail. - Memecoin casinos farmed exit liquidity. - FTX proved centralized crypto was rotten. - Gary Gensler gave the industry fear instead of clarity. - VC chains sold fake decentralization to tourists. Ethereum warned against all of it from day one. Don’t trust. Verify. Don’t gamble. Build. Don’t beg institutions. Replace them. Ethereum didn’t fail anyone. Everyone had to learn the hard way for years why ETH matters. Now it’s time to come back to the ideals. Back to credible neutrality. Back to decentralization. Back to the settlement layer. Back to the L1. Back to Ethereum.
