Does it really matter? The system is doomed

Peter, what is meant exactly by leaving the fiat system? Being retired means I’m only spending fiat which is our only option in the UK. Moving all in on BTC would creat CGT when spending on bills and living costs. So in effect paying tax twice on income 😳🤔

@npub1s05…eyhe seen your interview with @npub14mc…frlx heavy stuff. My Q is how exactly does one exit the failing system? We’re retired with no mortgage. I’m hitting 60 this year so I’m not really contributing time and energy other than spending so how would I/we exit into the new when I don’t feel that I/we would contribute time and energy? The UK is not really set up for using BTC for bill payments

Might have felt like a rollercoaster but it wasn’t to bad 🤪

The massive QE pumps everyone’s been talking about? They’re not happening right now—in fact, most central banks wrapped up or paused the big liquidity injections. The Fed ended quantitative tightening late last year and started some reserve management buys, but it’s not full-on QE flooding the system like 2020. Global liquidity’s actually set to shrink in 2026, not explode.
So why’s everything tanking? It’s a classic liquidity shock from the precious metals crash. Gold and silver had this huge run-up, super crowded bets—then boom, they plunged hard a few days ago. That triggered margin calls, forced selling across the board, and it spilled over. Crypto got hammered, stocks (especially tech) sold off, even bonds wobbled. It’s not “no liquidity”—it’s sudden, panicked liquidity drain as positions unwind.
Markets are in this risk-off mode: investors dumping risk assets, rotating out of over-hyped stuff like AI/tech, and the whole thing’s feeding on itself. Stocks had a mixed week—some days up, but overall pressure from this metals meltdown and macro jitters.
It’s arse about face because the old “print money, prices moon” script isn’t playing out. Liquidity’s tighter than people think, and when leveraged bets blow up, everything falls together—gold, silver, Bitcoin, equities. Not fundamentals, just forced selling.
Give it time—could rebound if the Fed steps in more, but right now it’s deleveraging pain. Brutal, but these shocks usually pass.

Our politicians have lost their way, to much self interest and control and yet they clearly don’t know what they are doing. I feel Margret was the last of the proper politicians.
“All of us in politics have dreams. It is part of mine to give power and responsibility back to people.
Popular capitalism is a crusade to enfranchise the many in the economic life of Britain. That is the kind of society I want to see.”

I think Konstantin needs to join us. But I do understand how he is fighting the fight on the centralised platforms as I believe this is where the corrupt and brainwashed linger.

@npub1s05…eyhe Q, do use other Nostr platforms like Primal? I’m looking for platforms that compete with YouTube etc. I am still trying to get to grips with this decentralised concept.

I have swallowed that pill and I feel I can see clearly now. But it is so frustrating that very few can see the Woods for the trees 😳
