 IF THESE NUMBERS ARE ACTUALLY REAL THE ONLY THING THAT COMES CLOSE TO MAKING SENSE IS THAT CORY IS IN DEEP WITH BITFINEX / TETHER MONEY. 

1) HE ATTACKED NEARLY EVERY EXCHANGE EXCEPT FOR THEM.
2) TETHER IS ONE OF THE FEW THAT COULD HAVE PROVIDED FUNDING OF THAT SIZE LAST YEAR.

SO IF THAT IS THE CASE, HOW EXPOSED ARE THEY IF TETHER BLOWS UP?

 Tether just found 1000,000,000 more tethers due to an accounting error ;) 
 SHITCOINING SCUM 
 FTX 2.0 *cough *cough 
 Legend, always speaking the truth. 
 Look. All the arabs that ever wanted to move away from dollar got crushed. Except now they are moving away and not blinking. You could argue that this is because of Russia got stronger. But look at El Salvador. Russia has no business here. It used to be constantly corrupted and crushed by US. But suddenly it moves away from dollar into no less than bitcoin and finds all those policemen  and army to crush all levels of mafia with no resistence. They put more than 1% of their population behind bars just like that. Where did all the coruption go that blocked them from doing it before? Or is this all attributable to brave talk of Bukele? No, that big bad US that used to crush everyone is gone. There is someone more powerful that allows and enables all this.
And Bitfinex/Tether is backed by El Salvador, which means it is backed by The Biggest Power. So it is a zero risk entity. It is part of The Biggest Power itself, like is Swan.
Now this does not mean you can go all in with Swan and Bitfinex with no self custody. Because they themselves will punish you personally if you do. So, they are in control, but we need to play this game.
I think.

Then also Argentina. The allpowerful bankers suddenly lost all power, all their grip of media, and anything meeded to push their candidate through. So no they are running with the guy whose main promise is no less than to get rid of central banking altogether.
Yeah, it is all natural evolution. Like water worms turning into apes and elephants in a blink of an eye. 
 Keep an eye on those US Treasury yields 
 Whoa! Going down the conspiracy trail for sure. I mean hats off if your views turn out to be correct but man it's not going to be a good look if you are wrong. 
 If you meet the Buddah on the road , kill him.  
 An old Japanese Buddhist proverb : 

Slay your heroes .
 Nobody and nothing is beyond criticism.  
 Sure I agree with that, just make sure when you criticize some that it's valid, not purely on speculation.  
 If someone is in deep with bitfinex/tether money, and lying because of it,  that has some very creepy implications few people besides Whitney Webb are discussing.  
 🤔 
 Wasn't she saying recently that like , Tether is going to be the new CBDC because if they don't piggyback an existing chain , they will be too far behind with CBDC implementation? 

Like , is this the whole "Bitcoin is being dollarised" thing playing out? 

 
 yes it is playing out. scumbag banks/intel agengcies going to keep doing scummy things 
 Oh fack:

 Or they could be doing the Cashapp thing: counting all bitcoin sales as 'revenue' instead of just counting fees. 
 Also add to the mix Lugano and El Salvador. I went to the Plan B conference in Lugano for 2 weeks and they are entirely bought and sold for by Tether. Their point of sales machines they are rolling out link back to Bitfinex accounts to rehypothecate customer BTC (the shop can choose to receive CHF (default) or BTC on the custodial account. Tether is also registered in the US Virgin Islands, so if they blow up, there is little recourse for a swiss town to get its citizen's funds back. El Salvador via Max Keiser et. al. seems to be bought and sold by Tether. They used to be anti-shit-coin but Tether now seems acceptable for them (ETH and Tron rails?!?!). Also there's the whole volcano bonds thing sponsored by Bitfinex...
