Sometimes nothing happens in decades, and then decades happens in weeks. That's happening now. World history. Change of World Order. I had a long conversation with my mother-in-law today. She is 76 and has seen it all. My crypto-twitter timeline is full of people either fearing hashtag#blackmonday or thinking Trump is playing 4D chess with the world economy. I personally don't take sides and don't really care about who might be winning or loosing. Sometimes helps to be a bit autistic;-) Instead I take a systemic view: The system never loses. Hegemony always moves after a terminal crisis on to a new “systemic cycle of capital accumulation". This is the beginning of the end of the US Empire. The open society of the 20th century ended with Trump's second inauguration, too. The tariff war is a strike-first attempt to avoid the inevitable. Look at the graphic. The 21st century was always gonna be dominated by China. 1/3 (cont. in reply)

2/3 You see, I studied Asian Affairs in the 90s and this is what most experts in that then obscure niche had predicted: The Asian Century. Now it is playing out. I am glad I don't live in China and have a social credit score, but even me die-hard Liberal could live in what we Progressives in the West call a Benevolent Autocracy: Singapore. It's a place where true diversity works obviously better than in any G20 City of Woke-istan and where women can safely walk home drunk at 2am w/o any fear. Watching the change of the guards, I deeply hope and sense that crypto currencies will play a key part in re-allocating global capital. I always admire my internet friends from Vietnam, Thailand, Argentina and even India & China for being early adopters of blockchain and web3 - ahead of many of my lagging European friends, peers and clients.
