Imagine for a moment the future with a large bitcoin economy and think about Israel's war of annexation of Gaza within that framework. In such a scenario, if the Israeli war could not be funded by US$ unlimited fiat-fuckery, the Israelis should have carefully considered the costs and the risks of it (and for how long they would be able to finance it), versus the cost of finding a mutually convenient agreement with the Palestinians.
The Israeli Central Bank has estimated the cost of 2 years of war at least US$ 53 billion. This is 10% of Israel's GDP being literally burned to kill people and destroy infrastructure. This is also equivalent to the estimated cost of building the Ben Gurion Canal at US$ 55 billion. Intuitively, a fraction of US$ 53 billion could have been better invested to reach an agreement with the Palestinians over the revenues from the Leviathan gas reserves and the Ben Gurion Canal project (which are the only true reasons for the war), if only Israel had to pay for that war with its bullion reserves or bitcoin, rather than with US$ fiat-fuckery printed ex nihilo by its American friends. But when money is free to print and the ignorant masses foot the bill (via inflation or additional debt), while the profits flow yet again into the pockets of the Military-Industrial Complexes and the usual war profiteers, then the incentive for the Machiavellian elites is clearly to wage war rather than peace.
Read below on my substack how the corrupted fiat money incentivizes war and how bitcoin can foster a new era of peace and prosperity around the world.Be part of the peaceful #bitcoin revolution.
