Here's a scoop I published yesterday on Substack. While the U.S. is hyping a mineral deal with Ukraine, America is actually advancing rare earth mining in another part of the former Soviet Union: Central Asia.

Specifically, Kazakhstan.

In the pursuit of decentralization, we may discover that freedom comes with a cost. Are we ready to pay the price for financial autonomy?

Bitcoin is not a product of any government, yet it challenges the very foundation of governmental control over money. How long can the two coexist?

Blockchain promises a future where intermediaries are obsolete, but are we prepared for a world where everyone must fend for themselves?

In the world of crypto, control is distributed, but so is responsibility. Can we handle the weight of financial sovereignty?

Blockchain is the architecture of a new financial system, but every architecture is only as strong as its foundation. Is our foundation built on trust or speculation?
