For the first time, a government is being toppled by 3D-printed weapons 🔫

The longest-running civil war today has taken an unexpected turn as the resistance has embraced plastic guns and cryptocurrencies.

You NEED to know what's happening in Myanmar

Myanmar has never had political stability since gaining independence 76 years ago.

The latest coup occurred in 2021, with banks drained and the local currency losing 60% of its value in the following months.

Since then, the rebels have been using CRYPTO to fund their efforts.

They declared TETHER as the official currency 🏅

They launched a stablecoin and a crypto bank on the Polygon network, tapping into Uniswap pools to buy and sell currencies.

They even created a digital lottery, boycotting the national Burmese lottery, which saw its revenue plummet by 80% 📉

The rebels have raised about $100 million in recent years.

They've even auctioned off "revolutionary bonds": buyers could receive a share of a deposed general's mansion, for instance.

But this $100 million is nothing compared to the nearly $1 billion the junta has invested in the war since the coup.

This ASYMMETRY of resources suggests a prolonged conflict with no end in sight.

The junta can't eliminate all decentralized insurgency pockets but can financially exhaust them.

However, the asymmetry is shrinking. Thanks to DISSIDENT TECHNOLOGIES...

JStark would be proud.

In recent months, there have been reports of FGC9s being used in Myanmar.

FGC9 is one of the most popular self-manufacturable firearm models.

FGC = F*** Gun Control

No one conquers a city with FGC9s.

But it's quite possible to...

defend a mountain pass or a jungle-surrounded village with them.

Moreover, the resistance has mastered the art of producing and piloting homemade patrol drones.

The insurgents have already liberated about 50% of the territory.

The military junta controls the most populous and economically relevant areas.

China supported the latest coup in 2021. The West never had enough incentive to confront Beijing 🇨🇳

But in 2024, everything began to change.

China's interest is economic.

They need to side with the "winner" to secure access to Myanmar's strategic pipelines and ports.

But in March this year, Beijing lost its patience.

Here's the scoop:

😳 44,000 CHINESE were in Myanmar as "slaves"...

and were finally discovered and "returned."

They were working in "online scam centers" in the north of the country, lured by false job advertisements.

This is a scam center on the Thai border, full of Chinese people scamming others worldwide 👇

Think about it 👇

you've probably been targeted by some online profile trying to scam you, operated by one of the THOUSANDS of trafficked Chinese in centers like this.

What year are we living in, folks?! 😳

The war against tyranny still seems far from over. But the end seems to have begun.

The balance of power is shifting.

Found this interesting?

So next time you hear that CRYPTO or 3D-printed GUNS are "evil"... remember who actually needs them.
