The Chinese stock market posted its highest weekly return in nearly a decade following the announcement of a stimulus package. Approximately $284 billion in fiscal stimulus is expected to enter the market soon. It's only a matter of time before this capital starts to spread beyond China and Asia as well.

Hey 👋

Detailed satellite images are beginning to emerge, showing the extent of the damage caused by the Ukrainian attack on the Russian ammunition depot in Toropets. From the images, it's clear that almost the entire depot has been destroyed. In the last two images, you can get an idea of the depot's scale: observe the train unloading munitions, before and after the Ukrainian attack. This depot was truly massive, and according to various sources, it stored the equivalent of more than three months of intensive ammunition use. These sources also indicate that part of the stored munitions had been sent by North Korea.

According to the statement, the idea is to "celebrate" the party's founding anniversary to show that they "love and care" for the population in need.

The effect of populism is a constant disruption in the monetary balance of the economy where it is practiced.

The need for monetary expansion and contraction becomes more intense with each cycle, and this will NOT stop.

Nothing can halt this process.

It’s a process of rendering money worthless.

🚨UN 🇺🇳: Hamas demands "immediate action" from the UN to end the war in Gaza

Hamas, in a statement addressed to UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Tuesday (24), declared that it expects "immediate action" to end the war in Gaza and will not participate in further ceasefire negotiations.
“We demand immediate action to stop the Israeli aggression and war… in the Gaza Strip,” said Hamas, adding that it remains firm in its "position against entering new negotiations that would give (Israel) cover to continue its aggression."


"The victory on the battlefield begins in the factory." This phrase encapsulates one of the key reasons the Allies won World War II. The United States, thousands of miles away from Europe and Japan, could produce all the necessary ammunition and weapons for the war without fear of enemy attacks. Today, more than 80 years later, they are once again leveraging this great advantage, but this time to support another ally: Ukraine.

I will put up 250,000 sats for someone to make a PR to amethyst that does this:

If user has outbox, inbox, dm, private relays setup:

 - Any note I post goes to outbox, general (all kinds)

- Any interaction to a note I sign to a note goes to outbox, general... and the OP note is broadcast to inbox and  general

 - all drafts only go to private relay, and if we ever get a cashu wallet probably store nuts in here

Basically amethyst is treating all relays (except dms which seems to work great ) like general relays and broadcasting everything to all

Computational processing power increased by 3440% from 2015 to 2023, yet many people who don't understand proof-of-work fail to see its connection to Bitcoin.

In a network derived from computational power, the growth of its security is directly linked to the advancement of human technology.

This doesn't happen in proof-of-stake networks, where security is tied to how much new fiat currency is allocated.

They will likely try to expropriate all the Bitcoins on Coinbase and in ETFs, just like they did with gold in the past


SEC has just granted accelerated approval for the listing and trading of options on $IBIT.

And you think they are not controlling bitcoin?

- First they created cash-settled futures (Fiat), which made it possible to create paper bitcoin.

- When they already had a huge futures market with the CME, then they gave way to ETFs to be able to control the price, ETFs are also cash settled (Fiat).

- Finally they have approved options, also not redeemed with the underlying, redeemed with Fiat.

You must understand that the three Bitcoin institutional instruments, Futures, ETFs and options all revolve around Fiat and not Bitcoin, they are all cash settled. The only one that affects Bitcoin volume are the ETFs and even then they are not redeemed on the underlying.

They are trying the same play as with gold.

The money changers, i.e. the old bankers (Rothschilds) knew that to get into power they simply had to have as much gold as possible and create the loan/interest system.

This is what they are doing now with Bitcon, taking Bitcon away from the people.

Saifedean explains very well in his book Patron Fiat that in a Bitcoin system it won't make much sense to lend Bitcoin for interest.

What can you do?

 - Never deposit Bitcoin in a bank.
 - Create circular economies, black market, grey market, counter economy.
 - Never pay taxes on Bitcoin.
 - Never give Bitcoin to a government, before they are lost.

Russia has formed a "mechanized infantry battalion" with the crew of the aircraft carrier Kuznetsov. The problematic vessel, the only aircraft carrier in the Russian navy, has been docked for many years and appears to be on the verge of being decommissioned, with its crew of around 1,500 military personnel being converted into an infantry unit. According to OSINT sources, this new unit is currently fighting on the front lines in Pokrovsk, the most active and challenging area in the ongoing war.

As for Elon Musk, some analysts believe he may soon be forced by Brazil's Supreme Court, under Alexandre de Moraes, to exit the Brazilian market, but it seems El Salvador is ready to welcome him with open arms.

Italy's Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni, has announced stricter rules against illegal immigration. From now on, those who enter the country illegally will no longer go through the usual legal processes but will instead be summarily and immediately deported. According to Meloni, Italy can no longer handle the high number of illegal immigrants, and more severe measures are necessary.

I was there last week, and the number of immigrants in the country is indeed very high. In some regions, it even seems like they make up the majority. Obviously, not all of them are illegal, but a significant portion are.

Another angle of the Ukrainian attack that, during the night, destroyed yet another large Russian ammunition depot, this time in the Krasnodar region. Damage analysis, combined with the size of the depots, suggests that in just three days, Ukraine has destroyed the equivalent of 60 days' worth of Russian ammunition consumption on the front line.

Israel has officially confirmed the elimination of Lebanese terrorist leader Ibrahim Aqeel, responsible for numerous crimes, including two attacks in Lebanon that resulted in the deaths of over 350 people, many of them American citizens. One attack targeted the U.S. Embassy in Beirut, and the other was against a U.S. Marine detachment in Lebanon.

Ibrahim Aqeel was one of the top leaders of the Hezbollah terrorist group and a key coordinator of the southern front, which is responsible for the daily attacks on cities in northern Israel.

🚨According to the ongoing investigation, the pagers that exploded in the hands of Hezbollah terrorists were manufactured by Gold Apollo, a company from Taiwan. However, the company claims that it sold its brand to BAC Consulting, a Hungarian firm founded in 2022, which has only one employee, Cristiana Barsony-Arcidiacono. She stated that BAC Consulting does not manufacture pagers, meaning the pagers that exploded were made by a third company, whose identity remains unknown.

BAC Consulting has since shut down, and the whereabouts of its CEO and sole employee are currently unknown.

Axios reports that Israel planned to explode the pagers at the eve of a 'surprise attack' on Lebanon, but had to implement the operation early

According to Israeli journalist Barak Ravid, citing U.S. and Israeli officials, Israel decided to blow up the pager devices yesterday because two Hezbollah members had raised suspicion regarding the pagers, and Israel did not want to risk the operation being discovered before being implemented.

A former Israeli official with knowledge of the operation said Israeli intelligence services planned to use the booby-trapped pagers it managed to plant in Hezbollah's ranks as a surprise opening blow in an all-out war to try to cripple Hezbollah's internal communications.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his top ministers and the heads of the Israel Defense Forces and the intelligence agencies decided to use the system now rather than take the risk of it being detected by Hezbollah, a U.S. official said.

Minutes before the attack, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant called his American counterpart, Lloyd Austin, to inform him of an upcoming operation, without providing details.


The Toropets Russian ammunition depot was one of the largest in Russia. Spanning nearly 5 square kilometers, it stored around 30,000 tons of ammunition. This is what it looked like after being hit and destroyed by Ukraine during the night.

"Israel carried out a terrorist attack in Lebanon"

“What Israel has just done is, via *any* method, reckless.

They blew up countless numbers of people who were driving (meaning cars out of control), shopping (your children are in the stroller standing behind him in the checkout line), et cetera. Indistinguishable from terrorism.” he said.


Today's pager attack was remarkable, yet its impact was minimal. None of Hezbollah's top military figures were killed, with the 9 casualties being mostly civilians.

However, the incident heightened awareness of technological vulnerabilities across Lebanon, pushing caution to its limits. Morale also received a noticeable boost.

This was a powerful card that Israel and the U.S. played at the wrong moment.

I saw videos from hospitals showing many injured children. Pagers are widely used for civilian purposes in Lebanon, by doctors, security companies, and more. The attack affected nearly everyone in the country, including many Christians.

Had this strike occurred during an all-out war, the damage could have been catastrophic. Around 80% of Hezbollah members would likely have been using these pagers for wartime communication, either in hand or near their heads.


🚨Israel 🇮🇱/Lebanon 🇱🇧: Nearly 3,000 Hezbollah members and paramedics were injured after 'pagers' they used for communication exploded simultaneously.

Hezbollah stated that two of its fighters were killed. The son of an MP and a girl are also among the eight confirmed dead so far. According to the Wall Street Journal, the affected pagers were delivered in recent days. A Lebanese minister blamed 'Israeli aggression' for the explosions.


There is still a lot of speculation, but this seems to be the cause: a small explosive charge planted in a batch of pagers sold to Hezbollah. Somehow, Israel may have managed to sell thousands of explosive-laden pagers to the terrorists. But it's still just speculation.

Another video shows a Hezbollah terrorist's pager being remotely detonated by Israel. As we can see, the terrorist appears to check a message on the pager but does not react by removing it from his waist, which suggests that the battery likely did not overheat, adding to the mystery of the explosion's cause.

It is estimated that over 1,000 Lebanese terrorists were severely injured by the simultaneous detonations of their pagers.

🇻🇪 Cartel of the Suns: Maduro's weapon and treasure in Venezuela
Nicolás Maduro and Diosdado Cabello, amidst the Venezuelan crisis triggered by the elections on July 28th, have accused Elon Musk and the Venezuelan opposition, among other things, of being part of an international fascist network and even of consuming and being connected to the drug market.
Today, we'll understand the real relationship with international drug trafficking within Venezuela and how Maduro and a significant part of Venezuela's armed forces operate a true global drug empire.
https://image.nostr.build/2676ecb5f7c76ceff17f8110848297070ade27197d00f144b2d0e7060002f4bc.jpg
The "Cartel of the Suns" is the term used to describe drug trafficking cells embedded within the Venezuelan Armed Forces.
Despite the name, it is not a hierarchical group but rather a network of networks within the main branches of the Armed Forces—the Army, Navy, Air Force, and National Guard, from the lowest to the highest levels—which are often protected, coordinated, or in some cases, even directed by political actors.
These networks are highly fluid and constantly shifting, with their composition depending on military personnel rotation and political sponsorship.https://image.nostr.build/849ed95037878c3424fa1ca1563c59691768fd53341baae6bee02ae5276b6c67.jpg
The name "Cartel of the Suns" comes from the golden stars that generals in the Venezuelan National Guard wear on their epaulets. Many of Maduro's 2,000 generals are also heavily involved in drug trafficking.
https://image.nostr.build/7526c2ff5f0591ab2ef4d3874db079b6e4346056b963f9c03eacce6cb59ce6a5.jpg
In Colombia, then-President Álvaro Uribe, supported by billions of dollars in U.S. military aid, launched an unprecedented military assault against the country’s leftist guerrilla groups, primarily the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC). This pressure forced the guerrillas to move more of their operations—including their growing cocaine trafficking activities—to Venezuela’s poorly policed border states.
There, they built increasingly close ties with President Hugo Chávez's government, which viewed the guerrillas not only as ideological allies but also as a strategic bulwark against an increasingly hostile Colombia, alongside its ally, the United States.
https://image.nostr.build/5d147ed8bb87131ed6c7f5a17d0b6ad8ca636f56d4ddadf0f02c8bf5f17989a2.jpg
However, in Venezuela, President Chávez was briefly ousted from power in a coup attempt recognized by the U.S.
Following this, Chávez strengthened his support from the military by filling many influential government positions or lucrative contract opportunities with Army supporters and turning a blind eye to the growing corruption within the military.
https://image.nostr.build/c7ad848fd7bdab5b2f444ec2fc676365885c97a9c349ce5b5f2489e4c817cf0a.jpg
With the military actively cooperating with the guerrillas in the border region and having a free hand to engage in criminal activities, the stage was set for deepening the drug trade.
In no time, the security forces' cells began not only to cover for drug traffickers, allowing them to move shipments, but also to leverage their alliances with the guerrillas and other criminal actors to buy, store, transport, and sell cocaine.
https://image.nostr.build/04cbe3cbee71e59bc911df49c06ed6cb6cfc40827e1df4095db96e0456f32772.jpg
As the volume of cocaine circulating through Venezuela increased, so did the evidence that a growing number of high-ranking members of the Chávez administration were also facilitating or even directly participating in drug trafficking.
Some, such as intelligence officer Ramón Isidro Madriz Moreno and political leader Amílcar Jesús Figueroa Salazar, were sanctioned by U.S. authorities as members of the Cartel of the Suns, not so much for drug trafficking but for their alleged collaboration with the FARC.
https://image.nostr.build/61727962325b9b02345c3c312aa5f1b16818ae4ca972d9c25c740723346c6f4d.jpg
According to Vice News, Hugo Chávez's Venezuelan government expanded corruption to "unprecedented levels" within an already corrupt military. Chávez allocated millions of dollars to social programs that allegedly disappeared and granted legal immunity to drug trafficking officials to maintain power and loyalty.
When Chávez dismantled the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration in 2005, Venezuela became a more attractive route for drug trafficking. Colombian intelligence reported that a detained drug enforcement officer claimed "key figures within President Hugo Chávez's security forces were organizing drug shipments through Venezuela."
It was alleged that the National Guard collaborated with the FARC in drug trafficking. British authorities claimed that Colombian-origin planes were also protected by Venezuelan Air Force bases.
https://image.nostr.build/deda3f65ef00db09d3dd31cdfb7b7ff5f011eecce7f05b8ab6bc2a65055d66ca.jpg
Maduro began appearing in this organization in 2005, when, as a National Assembly deputy, Hugo Chávez allegedly instructed him to ensure that the activities of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) were protected. Chávez reportedly said that "Venezuelan judges who did not protect the FARC and their activities should be removed from their positions."
Coincidence or not, it was shortly after this that Venezuela ended its collaboration with the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA).
https://image.nostr.build/e5a4014168744a4a621cde6b4421f3d17c85f6b2032f14e74f5a4bbb1d720224.jpg
The accusations of official involvement in drug trafficking peaked in March 2020, when the U.S. Department of Justice indicted Nicolás Maduro, the successor to President Chávez; Diosdado Cabello, former Vice President and widely considered the second most powerful figure in the Chavista movement; and several other current and former Venezuelan officials, as well as members of the now-demobilized FARC leadership, on charges of "narcoterrorism."
Other significant figures in the organization identified by the U.S. Department of Justice include Vladimir Padrino López (Minister of Defense), Maikel Moreno (President of the Supreme Court of Justice of Venezuela), and Tarek El Aissami (former Vice President and former Minister of Oil).
https://image.nostr.build/ef5b7862a9b4bcfa617cc70738f6841a44fab7b5d8ebd4ad358211343c9363f7.jpg
Paradoxically, U.S. sanctions on high-ranking officials of the regime had a positive effect on the economy, as the top leaders of the "Cartel of the Suns," unable to withdraw their money from Venezuela, began to "invest" in the country. This led to an economic boom and a luxury bubble in some areas of the Venezuelan capital.
The chavista regime also used this process to create the narrative that "Venezuela has recovered and is doing well."
https://image.nostr.build/7aacf3f67afb22b3a0d29b1f4c61600a82cce4ecbe19c2fd2aecafaf88e80e15.jpg
A curious fact is that criminal suborganizations were created within the Cartel of the Suns as a sort of "personal savings."
The then-intelligence chief Hugo "El Pollo" Carvajal and former military general Cliver Antonio Alcalá Cordones were accused of directly collaborating with Colombian and Venezuelan drug traffickers, not only protecting their operations but also investing in their own cocaine shipments and organizing their own trafficking operations.
https://image.nostr.build/c1ad66f05c362cd56d3374344d77096150841fe1f3ef9cb3dd2eb4ec403f6c68.jpg
In this complex web, drugs pass through various trafficking nodes as they move through the country.
Venezuelan military personnel play multiple roles across different regions, while local and foreign politicians manage, directly or indirectly, the relationships between these military forces and criminal groups, controlling the operational environment.
https://image.nostr.build/6e2d09e0832f63f1455ff45f85be7a2590139ad7677201156beb255248ef38c4.jpg
The most common way of operating is to receive payments to turn a blind eye or ensure impunity for operations through regular bribes and creating free movement corridors for traffickers.
These corridors can be aerial, such as by disabling radars to allow drug flights to pass or providing special codes for flights to be registered as legal; terrestrial, such as by facilitating passage through networks of checkpoints; or maritime, such as by interrupting patrols at certain times to allow drug boats to pass.
https://image.nostr.build/bf58c40d1f1ee4ad6a8e14c045733b567436f7b089860e0d9a00b354a6d6d27b.jpg
In some cases, the military facilitates trafficking by controlling key infrastructures, mainly shipping ports and airports. In other instances, especially along internal movement corridors, military cells transport shipments themselves, often using official vehicles.
Available evidence suggests that Maduro's regime maintains control over this system at the national level, not through direct involvement in cocaine business transactions, but through the allocation and distribution of concessions, selective appointments, and ensuring protection.
https://image.nostr.build/2bf1fa98761facf4336c430994e5b7c5a2da629303bd5748684c35766622b711.jpg
Currently, the United States is offering a $15 million reward for the capture of Nicolás Maduro, as the leader of the Cartel of the Suns.
In addition to the Venezuelan government, the main affiliations of the Cartel of the Suns are:
FARC
Sinaloa Cartel
ELN (National Liberation Army)
Los Zetas
Ex-FARC Mafia
Turkish Mafia

Sergei Lavrov, Russian Foreign Minister, stated that he has always admired George Orwell's imagination in his book 1984, a satire on totalitarian regimes, but remarked that Orwell could never have imagined totalitarian regimes as they exist in the West today.

According to Lavrov, the U.S., Europe, and some Asian nations like Japan and South Korea live under a "rules-based totalitarianism." In contrast, Russia and China, supported by nations such as Iran and Egypt, offer the world a multipolar New World Order (NWO) which, in the Russian-Chinese view, would be more just, more democratic, and better protect the rights and sovereignty of nations.

🚨 In anticipation of the expected green light from the U.S. and the U.K. for Ukraine to use Western long-range weapons against targets in Russia, the Russians have withdrawn all of their bombers from bases located within the range of the ATACMS missile, which has a range of 300 km.


John Bolton, former U.S. National Security Advisor: "If Putin uses nuclear weapons in Ukraine, he will be signing his own death warrant."

Starlink can provide broadband high speed WiFi on airplanes, cruise ships on the oceans and just about anywhere on the planet.

The US govt approved billions of $$$ to subsidize high speed internet to rural homes and businesses. Starlink could provide that a $1,300 per home.

Starlink was approved in December 2020 to provide rural 643,000 rural homes for $886 million over 10 years. In 2023, the Biden Administration yanked the approval for political reasons.

Now other cable and fiber providers are charging the US govt up to $100,000 per home to provide the same service that Starlink could have provided for $1,300.

The reason it is so expensive to provide to rural homes with cable or fiber is due to the need to dig long trenches to reach very few individual homes or businesses. It is not cost effective compared to more densely populated cities.

Brazil is going crazy! In just one week, the Supreme Court expropriated R$ 8 billion from bank accounts with people's "forgotten" money and seized R$ 12 billion from those in litigation with the government, whose money was held in judicial deposits.

They're also still "analyzing" whether telecom companies should share data with the “police”, and some other items on the agenda discuss the sovereignty of jury trials and the limits of non-prosecution agreements.

On top of that, they've increased taxes by decree to meet fiscal targets and have broken banking secrecy. The CBDC is extremely advanced in Brazil, and Drex will probably be functioning by 2025! Anyone without Bitcoin is crazy!

The moment when a Russian Su-30 Flanker fighter jet was shot down by a Ukrainian MANPAD (portable anti-air missile) over the Black Sea. What that Russian fighter jet was doing flying so low and so close to the Ukrainian coast is hard to understand.

Note: an Su-30 fighter jet has an estimated cost of around $35-40 million, while a Stinger missile costs about $35,000.

USA 🇺🇸: “Reuters interviewed 10 people who were still undecided about their vote in the November 5 election before watching the debate. Six said afterward that they would now vote for Trump or were leaning towards supporting him. Three said they would now support Harris, and one was still unsure about how they would vote.”

“Although the sample size was small, the responses suggested that Harris might need to provide more detailed policy proposals to win over undecided voters,” reports Reuters.

This situation occurs by design. Often, when I explain this, some people fail to understand that it's directly related to the quality of money. Historically, whenever money is diluted by the state, people tend to rely more on it. As a result, it's common to see the breakdown of families, as well as an increase in prostitution and drug use. The state needs to create these problems in order to later present itself as the solution.

USA 🇺🇸: By agreeing to debate on “ABC News,” Trump knew he was playing "away from home," in a highly hostile environment, almost like “La Bombonera.” That said, Trump could have done better in Tuesday's debate. When I say better, I mean he missed opportunities, especially on issues related to the economy and immigration.

On the other hand, Harris did well in what she set out to do, which was to distance herself from the Biden Administration (even though she’s the Vice President) and smoothly dodge the tough questions (which weren’t many).

Overall, Trump managed to limit the damage, and Harris couldn’t get under his skin with her provocations. The impact of this debate on the election should be minimal. Not surprisingly, Harris's campaign has already requested a second debate.

Additionally, acquire bitcoin, as our only alternative is divestment, since the state system is satanic.

Russia will spend $500 million to enhance internet filters and block the use of VPNs. Vladimir Putin's goal is to completely disconnect Russia from the global internet, connecting it to a sort of national intranet known as Rusnet. To achieve this, Apple and Google online stores were forced to remove VPN apps. In Brazil, the Supreme Court attempted something similar, but the strong negative backlash forced them to reverse the decision to remove VPN apps from online stores.

🚨 For the first time, a government is being overthrown by 3D-printed weapons 🔫
The longest-lasting civil war today took an unexpected turn... when the resistance adopted plastic weapons and cryptocurrencies.

Myanmar has never had political stability since gaining independence 76 years ago.
The latest coup was in 2021, banks were drained, and the local currency lost 60% of its value in the following months.
Rebels have since been using CRYPTO to finance themselves.

They declared TETHER as the official currency 🏅
They launched a stablecoin and a crypto bank on the Polygon network that accesses Uniswap pools for buying and selling currencies.
They even created a digital lottery and boycotted the national Myanmar lottery, which saw its revenue drop by 80% 📉

The rebels have raised about $100 million in recent years.
They even auctioned "revolutionary bonds": buyers could receive a share of a deposed general's mansion, for example.
But this $100 million is nothing compared to the nearly $1 billion that the junta has invested in the war since the coup.
