The modern Iranian regime is a direct byproduct of the fiat system.
In 1971, the US broke the gold standard. To save the dollar, they created the Petrodollar, flooding the Middle East with printed money in exchange for oil control.
That massive influx of fiat destabilized Iran's economy in the 1970s. It created runaway inflation and massive wealth inequality under the Shah.
The 1979 revolution wasn't just ideological. It was a reaction to a fiat-broken economy.
When you manipulate the money, you destabilize the world. Bitcoin separates money from geopolitics.
Fix the money, fix the world.
