sport football: The “Secret War” Punishing Crypto

I can't believe I was so naïve.

After the launch of the first bitcoin ETF and the election of a pro-bitcoin President… along with the passing of the GENIUS Act… I thought the "Crypto Wars" were over. We had won.

Boy, was I wrong.

The war never ended. It just shifted to a different battlefield. It went underground – into the dark, windowless committee rooms of Washington, D.C.

I have been warning you about the greed in the American banking system since I first brought bitcoin to you in 2016 at about $400.

When bitcoin was down 80% in 2018, I warned you the banks would tell you BTC was radioactive… but they would secretly be preparing for a day when they would embrace it and recommend it to their clients.

Since then, we've seen the world's largest institutional players do exactly that.

Like Goldman Sachs, which, for years, claimed bitcoin was not an investable asset class. Today, they've disclosed over $1 billion in bitcoin ETF holdings.

Or BlackRock, whose CEO, Larry Fink, called bitcoin an "index for money laundering" in 2017. Today, BlackRock runs the iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT), one of the fastest-growing ETFs in history.

And JPMorgan Chase, whose CEO Jamie Dimon called bitcoin a "fraud." Today, the bank has its own coin for blockchain-based settlements, and it allows its institutional clients to use bitcoin as collateral for loans.

Those of you who heeded my warnings and recommendations changed the course of your financial life forever. Since the lows in 2018, bitcoin is up 2,064%, even after this most recent drawdown. That's enough to turn every $1,000 invested into $21,640.

Now, here we are all over again, and the banks are playing a new game with crypto.

If you have been watching the crypto markets (not just BTC), you have seen the volatility. You have seen the sudden crashes, the regulatory threats, the "FUD" (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt) pumped out by the mainstream financial press.

They want you to believe crypto is dangerous. They want you to believe it is "unstable."

They are lying to you. This isn't about safety. It is about a $6.6 trillion war against crypto.

Here's what's really behind the volatility in crypto assets.

Right now, U.S. banks are sitting on roughly $6.6 trillion in customer deposits. These are your savings. And what do they pay you for the privilege of holding your money? 10 basis points. That is 0.10%.

It is the greatest arbitrage racket in the history of finance. It is free money for them, and negative real returns for you.

While you earn 0.10% on your bank deposits, inflation is currently at 3%. That means you're losing 2.9% every year in purchasing power by parking cash in the banks. Over 10 years, that compounds to a 25% loss in purchasing power for you.

Meanwhile, at a minimum, the banks are making $200 billion per year on that money, risk-free.

That's why, over the past few months, they've waged a war against a crypto bill that's pushing its way through Congress.

The One Trigger He Won't Trade Without

Inside the 8-Minute Window That Separated One Trader from Thousands of Others in the Same Gold Chaos

Early 2026…

Gold is ripping. Headlines everywhere. Retail traders pile into what looks like an obvious breakout.

Within minutes, they're flushed out. Price reverses. They sell at a loss. Then gold takes off without them.

This sequence played out thousands of times in what became one of the most volatile stretches in gold since 1973.

But one trader was on the other side of that chaos.

While accounts were blowing up, he booked $6,100 in eight minutes. Then $8,400 in 26 minutes. Then $4,000 in 28 minutes.

Same charts. Same candles. Same market.

Completely different outcome.

The difference? One trigger.

The "Loophole" That Terrifies Jamie Dimon

The Digital Asset Market Clarity Act seeks to finally bring some clear rules and regulations to the crypto market. It is a long-overdue piece of legislation.

Once it passes, it will create the regulatory foundation upon which an entirely new crypto ecosystem will be built. It's difficult to overstate how important it is for the development and further commercialization of crypto.

And the banks are terrified of this bill. Why? Because it legitimizes stablecoins. Let me explain…

The bill is supposed to provide "regulatory clarity" for stablecoins (digital dollars). But hidden inside the latest draft of the CLARITY Act is a provision that the mainstream press is ignoring. It's called Section 404.

The original bill banned stablecoin issuers (like Circle or Paxos) from paying you interest. But it left a "loophole": It didn't explicitly ban exchanges (like Coinbase or Kraken) from passing that yield on to you.

A stablecoin is simply a digital dollar. But unlike your bank account, stablecoin issuers are eager to pay you the 3.6% they receive from the Treasury bills they hold backing the stablecoins they issue. They are happy to do this because they want to accumulate market share.

Think about that.

If you could move your savings from a Wells Fargo account paying 0.10% to a digital account paying 3.6%... safely and legally... would you keep your money in the bank?

Of course not. You would move it.

And that is the nightmare scenario for the banking cartel. If that $6.6 trillion leaves their vaults, a huge chunk of their business model evaporates overnight.

So, they are fighting back.

On January 5th, the American Bankers Association (ABA) sent a letter to the Senate. In it, they dropped the fear hammer. They claimed that if this "yield loophole" wasn't closed, it would siphon $6.6 trillion in deposits away from community banks.

They wanted us to believe it had nothing to do with the $200 billion a year in risk-free profits they were going to lose. Yeah, right. I'm sure the bankers are losing sleep worried sick over all the small businesses that won't be able to get credit anymore. Give me a break.

They are doing what they did in 2017-2018. They are manufacturing fear to scare politicians into voting their way. They are muddying the waters to make you scared of the alternative system, so you stay in the old one.

This regulatory "tug-of-war" is creating massive waves of uncertainty in crypto prices. One day, the bill looks like it will pass; the next day, a Senator threatens to kill it.

Eventually, bitcoin and crypto as a whole will overcome this obstacle, just like they've overcome every obstacle they've ever faced. But that might not happen until later this year. And between then and now, we could see even more volatility in crypto.

I've brought this to your attention because I believe this regulatory overhang is a big reason why bitcoin is lagging gold.

Think of it this way: When faith in the dollar is questioned (U.S. government solvency) and faith in the future is attacked (bitcoin), capital flees to the only neutral ground left. And that neutral ground is gold.

I am not telling you to buy gold coins and bury them in your backyard. That is a defensive move. What I am saying is that this "Secret War" on crypto is creating a massive offensive opportunity in the gold market.

That's why I'm recommending attacking this volatility while we wait for the regulatory overhang to clear.

For the last few months, I've been tracking the work of a specialist trader. He isn't a "gold bug." He doesn't hoard bullion in a safe.

He is a volatility hunter.

He has developed a method that tracks, among other things, fear in the market. When the banks ramp up their war on crypto and the uncertainty spikes, this man executes a specific type of trade in the gold market.

He doesn't need gold to go to $10,000 to make money. He just needs the volatility.

While the average investor is getting shaken out of their positions by this manipulated market, this man has been quietly racking up double- and triple-digit winners in minutes… not days or weeks.

I've asked him to show my readers exactly how he does it, and he's agreed to reveal the same playbook he used when he was running institutional money.

He's traded over $3.5 billion for hedge funds, sovereign wealth funds, and billionaire family offices. They pay him enormous sums every year to build the algorithms that help them extract gains from gold's price swings.

I've never met a guru, analyst, or trader so sure of their moneymaking ability that they had the courage to do what this gentleman is about to do for my readers. I recorded our entire conversation so you could see everything for yourself, watch it here.

Friends, the bankers who pull the strings in the corridors of Washington are waging a "Secret War" on crypto. Eventually bitcoin will win, like it always does. When that happens, capital will stampede back to the most explosive monetary asset there is: bitcoin.

In the meantime, this offensive opportunity in the gold markets is too big to ignore. If you're looking to wring as much profit as you can from the historic volatility in gold, I urge you to hear what he has to say.
