Hey-Hey, Bitcoin Wealth Builders!
It’s Friday 12th September 2025—and this week, we’re not following our usual structure of This Week in Bitcoin, Macro & Geopolitics.
The world has entered a fire state of emergency—and everything we’ve been warning about for years on BitcoinHardTalk is unfolding in real time. Now is the time to follow the money and look beyond the headlines. The prescriptions we’ve been analysing are no longer theory—they are happening.
Emergency Analysis
We’re breaking down this week’s episode into focused segments as each event has big implications:
Analysis 1: Qatar Bombs – What the escalation signals for Middle East power plays and US dollar strategy.
Analysis 2: Poland Drones – How European border instability ties into NATO’s shifting role.
Analysis 3: Venezuela Strikes – The Latin American front in the global resource and energy wars.
Analysis 4: Charlie Kirk’s Assassination – Domestic fallout, controlled narratives, and the pre-crime agenda.
Analysis 5: UK Civil Unrest – A powder keg igniting this weekend, linked to the European instability campaign.
Big Picture
As I’ve been saying for years, all of this is part of a managed transition to a multipolar world—where the US recedes into a regional technocracy managing the West under the Proof-of-Weapons (PoW) network. Bitcoin investors, macro thinkers, and geopolitical realists need to prepare:
The money tells the story.
The narrative is managed.
The transition is accelerating.

Episode #96 - 🇨🇳🇺🇸Why the New Shanghai Proof-of-Weapons Network Marks America’s Turning Point
Hey-Hey, Bitcoin Wealth Builders! It’s Friday—and that means it’s time to decode this week's shifts in Bitcoin, macroeconomics, and geopolitics. It’s time for Episode 96 of BitcoinHardTalk.
*This Week in Bitcoin, Crypto & CBDCs*
Public companies now hold over 1,000,000 BTC for the first time in history.
Tether USDT launched on new Bitcoin tech.
Thailand & Japan are weighing Bitcoin reserves, UAE Bitcoin mining was confirmed and The Federal Reserve announced an Oct. 21 Payments Innovation Conference to cover Bitcoin, crypto, stablecoins, and AI.
A single whale dumped 24,000+ BTC ($310M) in a flash crash — price barely moved.
It’s been a rollercoaster week, and I’ll break down everything you need to know about what really went down in Bitcoin. *This Week in Macro*
At the SCO summit in Tianjin, financial architecture for a new order was unveiled. Days later, Beijing’s military parade put China’s latest weapons on full display. Together: the launch of the New Shanghai Proof-of-Weapons Network → multipolar world order enforced by finance + AI + weapons.
Meanwhile, Britain’s “Growth Plan” crashed the UK gilt market. France, UK, Japan bond yields spiked — talk of possible IMF bailouts for UK/France. In reaction Gold surged as central bank holdings hit 27% of reserves, highest in 29 years.
The U.S. government fired a Fed governor while turning into a tech investor — America edging toward national socialism.
I’ll unpack this and more in this week’s macro madness. *This Week in Geopolitics*
The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), led by Saudi Arabia, consolidates as Middle East hegemon.
The Washington Post leaked a Tony Blair & Trump Gaza plan that has to be analyzed as I believe it reveals the West’s destabilization strategy within the Proof-of-Weapons framework. UAE warned Israel: annexing the West Bank is a red line, risking the Abraham Accords.
The House Oversight Committee released 33,295 pages of Epstein files from the DOJ whilst multiple Venezuelan F-16s buzzed a U.S. warship — signaling the next Proof-of-Weapons playground.
I’ll break down what this really means in this week’s geopolitical deep dive. Bitcoin and gold warnings, the New Shanghai Proof-of-Weapons Network, and the technocratic plans for Gaza and Western destabilization—it’s all connected.

Episode #95 - 🇺🇸🇬🇧🇪🇺Mass Shootings, Immigration & Unrest: Setting the Stage for the Pre-Crime Agenda
🇺🇸🇬🇧🇪🇺Mass Shootings, Immigration & Unrest: Setting the Stage for the Pre-Crime Agenda #BitcoinHardTalk Episode 95
Hey-Hey, Bitcoin Wealth Builders!
It’s Friday—and this week, I’m doing things differently.
Normally, I break things down into This Week in Bitcoin, This Week in Macro, and This Week in Geopolitics. But the sheer pace of developments in what I call the Proof-of-Weapons Network—the police-and-surveillance state emerging globally, fueled by civil unrest campaigns—demands a sharper focus.
Episode 95 of #BitcoinHardTalk goes deep into the weapons being deployed right now.
Topics We’re Covering This Week:
- Mass Shootings, Immigration & Unrest: How chaos is being used to set the stage for the Pre-Crime Agenda.
- Immigration in the West: Why so much migration, and is the so-called “Muslim Invasion” narrative real—or engineered?
- Do Jews Really Rule the World?: Breaking down the myths vs. the reality behind this long-standing claim.
- The Proof-of-Weapons Network Endgame: What is the plan, and where is all this heading?
Why This Episode Matters
The Proof-of-Weapons Network isn’t some abstract theory. It’s unfolding before our eyes—weaponizing unrest, migration, identity politics, and fear to justify ever-expanding control systems. If you want to understand how these pieces connect—and what this means for Bitcoin, freedom, and your future—this is an episode you can’t afford to miss.

Episode #94 - The FED is Dead
Bitcoin warnings from Syria, Fed Independence in Question and Trump meeting Putin lead me to the question…Is the Fed Dead? | This Week In Bitcoin, Macro & GeoPolitics | BitcoinHardTalk Episode 94
Hey-Hey, Bitcoin Wealth Builders!
It’s Friday—and that means it’s time to decode this week's shifts in Bitcoin, macroeconomics, and geopolitics.
It’s time for Episode 94 of BitcoinHardTalk.
This Week in Bitcoin, Crypto & CBDCs
As predicted last week, China has flip-flopped yet again: despite its long-standing ban, a Chinese firm just announced it will open Bitcoin and crypto trading.
In the U.S., Gemini doubled down on its ambitions to go public, Tether recruited straight out of the White House as it positions itself for a U.S. stablecoin launch, and Strategy ruffled shareholders while engineering a scheme to stop Bitcoin sales.
Meanwhile in the Middle East, Syria’s central bank issued fresh warnings against Bitcoin. No surprise there—they fear what true monetary freedom means for their people.
It’s been a rollercoaster week, and I’ll break down how to protect yourself from China, Syria, and Strategy, plus everything you need to know about what really went down in Bitcoin.
This Week in Macro
Berkshire Hathaway’s Q2 results revealed the bite tariffs are taking out of U.S. corporations. The Trump administration’s agenda—fiscal dominance, undermining Fed independence, and potentially replacing up to four Fed seats with loyalists—forces us to ask: is the Fed dead?
The Fed’s power to steer monetary policy is fading fast as the dollar weakens. The new EU/U.S. trade deal only reinforces the “vassalization” strategy I’ve been highlighting on BitcoinHardTalk. Meanwhile, Russia says it will keep selling oil to India regardless of U.S. tariffs, while the U.S.–China AI arms race accelerates—evidence we’re already living in a multipolar world.
And to top it off, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink has stepped in as interim WEF chairman, tasked with managing the very global transition I’ve been preparing my audience for.
I’ll unpack all this and the rest of this week’s macro madness.
This Week in Geopolitics
The Trump–Putin summit dominated headlines, but when you follow the money, the meeting changes little.
Meanwhile, famine has now been officially declared in Gaza by UN-backed monitors, even as Israel prepares new settlement expansions and another invasion—this despite Hamas accepting a ceasefire deal brokered by Egypt and Qatar. Major G7 countries are preparing to recognize Palestine in September, leaving the U.S. and Israel increasingly isolated on the world stage.
At the same time, Saudi Arabia and Syria announced plans for a joint investment fund, while Egypt has begun training 5,000 Palestinian police officers in coordination with Jordan—signs of shifting regional alliances.
I’ll break down what all this really means in this week’s deep dive into geopolitics.

Episode #93 - 🇺🇸🇨🇳Google & China Ban Bitcoin?
🇺🇸🇨🇳Google Tried to Ban Wallets.
China Targeted Bitcoin Ownership
The US Announced it Wants to Seize Bitcoin for Its Reserves…
This Week In Bitcoin, Macro & GeoPolitics
Hey-Hey, Bitcoin Wealth Builders!
It’s Friday—and that means it’s time to decode this week's shifts in Bitcoin, macroeconomics, and geopolitics.
It’s time for Episode 93 of BitcoinHardTalk.
This Week in Bitcoin, Crypto & CBDCs
Google kicked off the week with a bombshell—announcing it would ban all wallets from Google Play if they weren’t licensed in the US or EU…even self-custody wallets.
Then… they reversed it. 😂
China joined the chaos, declaring it would extend its bitcoin exchange and mining ban to cover crypto ownership.
Then…they reversed it. 😂
Not to be outdone, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced America wouldn’t buy more bitcoin for its strategic reserves or revalue gold from $42.
Then…you guessed it — he reversed it. 😂
A rollercoaster week—and I’ll break down exactly how to protect yourself from Google, China, and the dollar, plus everything you need to know about what really happened the week in Bitcoin.
This Week in Macro
US consumer price inflation numbers came in calm…until producer price inflation smashed the calm with panic.
Trump teased he was close to a trade deal with China and India—then it soured with India, who instead inked deals with Russia. Meanwhile, the US extended talks with China by another 90 days, just as Beijing told its tech giants to stop importing Nvidia and AMD chips for “national security” reasons.
And just to keep the week spicy, Trump moved to militarize the police in Washington DC, sparking fears of unrest that could mirror LA’s past chaos.
The US’s isolation-and-destabilization campaign keeps looking eerily like the playbook we’ve seen in the UK and Europe.
I’ll unpack all this and the rest of the week’s macro madness.
This Week in Geopolitics
The UK, EU, Australia, and Canada are racing toward a September deadline to formally recognize Palestine as a state—aiming to pressure Israel to end the genocide—while the world’s newest $2 trillion Norwegian sovereign wealth fund announced divestments from Israel.
Meanwhile, Trump greenlit a full-scale occupation of Gaza by Israel while reportedly exploring a pardon deal for Ghislaine Maxwell—right before his meeting with Putin.
This coincided with a $35 billion Egypt–Israel gas deal that triggered global outrage…but those who follow the money on Bitcoin Hard Talk may see it in a very different light.
I’ll cover all this—and what it really means—in this week’s deep dive into this week in geopolitics.
Peace!
