In this powerful talk from Mallorca Blockchain Days, discover how war, money, and control are deeply connected—and why Bitcoin might be the last hope against a fully centralised global financial system.
The world faces economic uncertainty with rising debt and risky fiscal strategies recently escalated with global tariffs. What options does Bitcoin provide, or is it too soon for such a radical shift? Explore an analysis of Trump’s recent tariff war and the alternative with the potential for a decentralised financial future.
This article critiques the UK’s rising government spending and debt, arguing that Labour Chancellor Rachel Reeves’ borrowing strategy is a high-risk gamble. It warns that mismanaged investments and high taxes could lead to economic stagnation, similar to Japan’s “Lost Decade.” I propose adopting Bitcoin as a currency and alternative, emphasising its fixed supply, transparency, and resistance to reckless borrowing. However, volatility and the lack of a central bank make adoption difficult. However, I believe that the organic adoption of Bitcoin will overcome these obstacles over time.
Historically, gold and silver were reliable but impractical forms of money, leading to the rise of paper currencies. However, moving away from gold-backed money enabled manipulation and debt-driven economies.
Bitcoin counters these issues. Its decentralized structure and fixed supply resist inflation and central control. Unlike gold, it is divisible, verifiable, and suited for modern trade. As digital currencies like the EU’s digital euro emerge, Bitcoin’s ability to restore monetary honesty and empower individuals becomes increasingly relevant.
This article examines the history of taxation and government debt, from medieval tithes to modern policies, highlighting recurring issues of mismanagement and unsustainable borrowing. Historical examples like the Southsea Bubble and Napoleonic Wars illustrate the consequences of financial overreach.
In modern times, UK economic strategies, whether Conservative or Labour, are critiqued for failing to address the nation’s £2.6 trillion debt effectively. The article proposes Bitcoin as a transformative solution, offering decentralization and transparency to prevent manipulation and promote accountability in public spending. Despite its potential, widespread adoption faces resistance from those benefiting from the current system.
Since Bitcoin’s inception, it has frequently drawn comparisons to the Tulip Mania of the 17th century, where the price of tulip bulbs skyrocketed and then crashed dramatically. While Bitcoin has experienced similar surges and declines, its resilience over 15 years sets it apart from the short-lived Tulip Bubble. This essay explores the historical context of financial bubbles, the evolution of legal and economic structures, and the unique characteristics of Bitcoin that differentiate it from past speculative frenzies. By examining the encoded rules of Bitcoin and its resistance to governmental manipulation, we uncover why Bitcoin is poised to be a revolutionary asset in the financial world.
As Western democracies face a year of elections, this article outlines how money has supported the development and growth of politics and governments through the last 300 years of history. Governments need the support of central banks to continue to function. I explore how that will change in a new economic world based on Bitcoin.
