I am not⁤ a time traveler, I live like you in 2023. Lol
I am telling you who⁣ is the boss now, it is not China not russia, it is USA
Even if⁢ all brics unite against USA, they cannot win.
About crypto yes you are right, it︀ got green light from many big hedge funds like blackrock. But nevertheless USA still has︁ the power to allow of ban it at anytime and we can't do anything about︂ it
 
The US and Europe even imposed the price cap on the Russian oil, of $60.‌

Do Russia, rest of the world, or EVEN the some of the European countries themselves‍ - who imposed the cap - follow it? They try to get around their own⁠ sanctions. 😀
 
  1. What did you use as the numerator and how did you arrive at this number?
  2. What did you use as the denominator and how did you arrive at this number?

Rebuttal by other experts:

(1) China denies Mark Mobius' claims that its government is restricting capital⁢ flow

(2) China rebuffs billionaire investor Mark Mobius's warning that the government made it harder to get money︂ out, report says

I can only speak for myself: Probably not much, personally!

My issue︆ isn't the USA, China, Russia, Iran, etc. My issue is banking! Although, I (maybe) solved︇ it last year in March 2022. Unless something major happens (WWIII) it is unlikely that︈ my international remittances will be hindered.
 
A question to anybody that thinks BRICS currency is happening anytime soon:

If India won’t‌ even let Chinese apps into the country, do you think they will abolish their own‍ central bank and unite the Rupee with the RMB?
 
So what?

India does bussiness with China whilst "even not allowing⁠ Chinese apps remain in the country".

China deos business with India whilst "even having disputes⁤ with China over some borders"

Brazil does bussiness with USA whilst "even remaining an active⁣ member of BRICS and opengly supporting Russia".

Saudi Arabia wouldn't even answer Biden's calls in⁢ the past whilst "being an ally of USA"

USA has ramped up buying Uranium (not︀ Iranium 🙂 ) from Russia, recently, whilst "even not getting along with Russia in every possible︁ front possible".

Turkey has talked with Ukraine, releazed the fighters of Azov whilst "even inviting︂ Putin into the country for a meetting"

Russia will rival Turkey in Syria whilst "giving︃ an impression that they're friends with Turkey"
 
Reminds me of best quote in history︁ by James Carville: "It's the economy, stupid"
 
If only there were 6-7 more of Kim Jong-uns in the‍ world... one in each major country..... 😛 There'd be the order everywhere!
 
The issue most of‌ us seem to have here: Banks freezing funds and closing bank accounts.cry&¤
Crypto! We don't exchange back to FIAT unless‍ absolutely necessary and if it is a must, we use the Hawala system to get⁠ cash. 😉

We do, depending on the day, a few to lots (+40) of big transactions⁤ (purchases from suppliers using crypto) per day, including Sundays and holidays. No questions asked. No⁣ invoices. No corporate BS. No regulators. No barriers to entry, etc. We receive the same⁢ number of incoming transactions from clients/buyers. Imagine trying to do this with banks and their︀ compliance monkeys cry&¤.

I get anxiety attacks just thinking about banks! baw3##

PS. I do use︁ banks, debit & credit cards though but (only) for small amounts when a crypto debit︂ card payment option is NOT available.
 
Thanks, Jack! That's quite a compliment coming from you, but I can't take credit for‌ this. I arrived at this conclusion from all of you here who espouse crypto. Notwithstanding‍ listening for more than a decade and following several "experts", including but not limited to⁠ @Cryptodad (YT), @Bitcoin_University (YT), and @aantonop (YT), it was OCT and some of its members⁤ that helped me put the puzzle together, truly pushed me to de-institutionalized, and jump off⁣ the cliff of financial institution dependency. Offline I refer to OCT as the Betty Ford⁢ clinic for bank addicts smi(&% rof/%

Looking back, I wonder why it took me more than a︀ decade, more than 3 decades if you add David Chaum & digital cash into the︁ equation, to wake up! I mean, geez...this propaganda machine is so tough to decouple from.︂ I now wake up every day jumping with joy to work but wondering how stupid︃ am I really? 🙄 It fvcking took me +3 decades to realize the spiderweb of deceit︄ these Machiavellian creators spun to keep us entrapped as cogs in the wheel of their︅ prosperity. Like WTF???!!! I thought the electrical & computer engineering curriculum was difficult. That was︆ a walk in the park compared to this. cry&¤

It's all good now! I overdosed on the Red Pills! smi(&%😎😉
 
rof/% smi(&% I don't blame the guy! If I were in‌ his position where I could invest $5 billion OF FIAT MONEY in Goldman Sachs during‍ the financial crisis and bail them out, I would dislike ANYTHING that rivals my status⁠ quo too. smi(&% All joking aside...Actually, NOT true! I would NEVER behave like this. I'm not⁤ a hater and I wouldn't have thrown Sokol under the bus either. Warren and Charlie⁣ have wonderful qualities. I subscribe to 99% of them. There are 37.2 trillion cells in⁢ the human body. I'm bound to deviate from other humans in some instances 😉 I can︀ see Warren's point too when viewed from the spectacles of a zero-sum game though: People︁ are investing their money into #Bitcoin instead of Warren's ventures e.g. BRKA/B, BAC, AXP, C,︂ V, MA, etc etc. 😛

Furthermore, I can't even send $500K to a public company in︃ the US for a DSPP without going through 3 to 4 months of absolute Hell!︄ cry&¤
Banks *insist* they should be the custodian blah blah blah....and when I stand my ground,︅ compliance closes my bank account and they send me a letter: "The bank is unable︆ to service your account and meet your expectations." 😡

What expectations are banks referring to? Keep︇ my money until I need it? Literally, that is the bank's original business plan. smi(&%
 
History repeats it self.
Warren buffett did same mistake‌ with Microsoft. He has a rule; never invest in something you don't understand.
Look at‍ Elon musk, he bought btc and made millions
Overall hats off to best investor in⁠ the world: Warren buffett
If I get to meet like a famous model or singer⁤ or actor, I would choose to have dinner with Warren buffett!
