The inimitable Max Keiser has reignited the rumor. Qatar is reportedly about to invest 500 billion in bitcoin. Just that…
This is not the first time rumors have swirled about Qatar. They date back to 2021 when the CEO of the Qatari sovereign wealth fund stated that bitcoin needed “to be a little more mature” before his fund could consider investing in it.

Yesterday Senator Elizabeth Warren used a Wall Street oversight hearing to whine about cryptocurrency.
At one point, almost as if a well-choreographed football play, she passed the ball to Jamie Dimon — CEO of JP Morgan Chase, the biggest bank in the world — to “explain why crypto is such an attractive financial tool for terrorists, drug traffickers, and rogue nations?”
It’s hard to imagine a more loaded question.
Mr. Dimon gleefully caught the pass and said:

“I’ve been working on a new electronic cash system that’s fully peer-to-peer, with no trusted third party,” Satoshi wrote in an Oct. 31 email in 2008.
Today marks 15 years since the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto, shared the Bitcoin white paper to a mailing list of cryptographers on Oct. 31, 2008 — a date also annually celebrated as Halloween.

What we now call “The Cantillon Effect” was known far back as circa-1730, by at least one economist. It hasn’t been taken very seriously in modern times, especially here in the fiat age.
Named after its author, Richard Cantillon, in his “Essay on Economic Theory” (“Essai sur la Nature du Commerce en Général”) — it is his only surviving work and was published posthumously in 1755, more than 20 years after he was murdered by a former cook whom he had dismissed from his household. The disgruntled ex-employee, returned by night, robbed his home, then set it ablaze, with Cantillon — and the rest of his manuscripts, within.

Every time a geopolitical flashpoint emerges, or some emotive ‘terrorism’ event plays out, the western Establishment will not let such a crisis go to waste. Specifically, they will use any opportunity or incident to blame Bitcoin, claiming that the cryptocurrency is somehow responsible for financing acts of terrorism.
That said, due to Bitcoin’s decentralized nature, as well as the relative anonymity built into cryptocurrencies, such transactions cannot really be regulated.
