Russia’s Economic Collapse: The Looming End of Putin’s Regime
The Russian economy is imploding, threatening Vladimir Putin’s grip on power. His Keynesian strategy to counter Western sanctions—based on subsidized spending and artificially low interest rates—has backfired catastrophically, plunging the country into a boom-and-bust cycle now entering its most devastating phase.
The housing market, propped up by state-subsidized mortgages at rates as low as 7% (despite real inflation estimated at 27% by Dr. Steve Hanke), is collapsing. Mortgage debt has surged to over 40% of bank lending portfolios, while household debt is at a record 22% of GDP. Once dominating housing transactions, mortgages now make up only 20% of sales, with 80% being cash purchases. Sellers are slashing prices by up to 50%, and non-performing loans are soaring, threatening to sink regional banks, which hold 40% of the market. Developers, crippled by overbuilding during the boom, are defaulting on bonds, leading to widespread losses across the construction sector.
The ripple effects are devastating. The Russian stock market has seen all sectors decline sharply, with Gazprom down 16.7%, Ozon 23.7%, and RUSAL 23.8% in just one month. Inflation has spiraled out of control, forcing the cost of potatoes to rise by 80% this year alone, with car prices expected to jump 20% after New Year’s. The ruble has lost over 10% of its value three times in a single month, reflecting deep structural weaknesses. Russia’s national budget, calculated on oil prices of $72 per barrel, faces severe strain as global production rises and prices fall. Experts predict the ruble may require a devaluation of 22-35% to sustain government spending.
International support is absent. China, dealing with its own economic woes—including an 18% youth unemployment rate and a real estate debt crisis—has limited capacity to assist Russia. Furthermore, China conducts > 60% of its trade with the U.S. and Europe versus around 2% with Russia and is unlikely to risk sanctions for a marginal ally. #russiaisaterroriststat
Hola soy 174517897 y me estoy metiendo en el mundo de las criptomonedas y, la verdad, es un viaje fascinante, aunque tiene sus riesgos.
Como recién estoy arrancando, me di cuenta de que hay que informarse bien antes de mandarse. Me copan tecnologías como Bitcoin y blockchain, pero soy bastante cuidadoso porque el mercado puede ser re zarpado con las subidas y bajadas, sin contar las posibles estafas.
Por eso, empecé juntando unas monedas de sobres rojos, como para ir tanteando el terreno y aprender con calma. Si estás en la misma que yo, un consejo: investigá bien, empezá tranqui y nunca pongas más plata de la que te bancás perder. ¡El conocimiento es clave!
Si me leíste, déjame un me gusta, así se que valió la pena escribir. 😊
that's like asking which slot machine is hot and which is not. ask yourself why you bought it, how much you expected, and how long you're prepared to hold

In a social media post on Friday, President-elect Donald Trump revealed that Microsoft founder Bill Gates had requested a meeting with him. The message, which seemed to be intended as a private communication to tech mogul Elon Musk, added another layer to the growing list of high-profile figures seeking Trump’s attention as he prepared to take office.
it's the only crypto blockchain that isn't competing against other blockchains. it's competition is aws and Microsoft azure and Google cloud.

$ICP💥🚀
$ICP
ICP may be the best blockchain technology there is to date. We can thank (or hate) SBF for destroying this chart right out the gate, however the projects fundamentals, developments, and team have not stopped since day one. However, i do not think this bull cycle (unless extended) will be one where we see ICP's value really shine. Not to say it wont 5-10X from where it currently is, but this is a 1-5 trillion dollar market cap project in the long term.
Price Action: Realistically, I see ICP going as high as $80 in the mid term. We found a demand zone in the $3 area, and have now changed character. there are a few obsticales in the way of going past $80 this cycle including A bearish FVG, some major resisra some major restistance, and the supply zone at 80,.
Take Profit Structure: Percentages represent growth of total initial investment at current price level.
TP1 - 15% - at $24.14 TP2 - 20% - at $35.39 TP3 - 25% - at $53.58 TP4 - 30% - at $71.79

My life turned from a fairytale into a nightmare—all in one Christmas! I had everything: money, success, a wife, loyal friends. Life seemed firmly on track, but it was all a lie. I was on my way to a business meeting in Florida. Nicholas stepped out of the car when a man in a black suit approached us. He asked me to wait, leaving his phone in the car. Suddenly, his phone rang, and the contact "My Love" appeared on the screen… with a photo of my wife kissing my best friend. I picked up to confirm. "Darling, did you get rid of that fool Cameron?" I heard my wife’s voice. I realized the whole trip was a setup. I bolted out of the car, running in every direction, until men in black suits stopped me, led by my so-called "best friend." Him, smirking: "Sorry, Cam. This is goodbye." After that, I remember only a hit to the head and darkness. I woke up on the street in rags, without money, without a phone, lying on cardboard, freezing in the cold. People passed by, ignoring my pleas for help. I thought this was the end. And just when I could barely feel my legs from the cold, a voice suddenly spoke above me.

How can I turn $400 into nearly $20,000 in just 10 minutes trading cryptocurrency?
Unfortunately, I cannot advise you on any methods to turn $400 into nearly $20,000 in just 10 minutes trading cryptocurrency, or any other financial instrument for that matter. Such a rapid and significant increase in value is highly unlikely and carries extreme risks of financial loss. Here's why: Cryptocurrency markets are notoriously volatile: Prices can fluctuate dramatically in short periods, making it nearly impossible to predict guaranteed profits in such a timeframe.High returns often come with high risks: Any investment promising quick and substantial gains should be approached with extreme caution, as it likely signifies a speculative or risky venture.Get-rich-quick schemes are rarely successful: If there were an easy way to make significant profits quickly and consistently, everyone would be doing it. Be wary of any strategies that sound too good to be true. Instead of seeking high-risk, short-term gains, consider these alternatives: Invest for the long term: Focus on a well-diversified portfolio with investments aligned with your financial goals and risk tolerance.Educate yourself: Gain a thorough understanding of cryptocurrency markets and responsible trading practices before investing.Start small and gradually increase your investment: Begin with a smaller amount you can afford to lose and gradually increase your investment as you gain experience and comfort.Seek professional advice: Consult with a qualified financial advisor for personalized guidance based on your financial situation and goals. Remember, responsible investing involves careful planning, research, and understanding the inherent risks involved. Never invest money you cannot afford to lose, and avoid pursuing risky strategies based on the hope of quick and unrealistic returns.

Why Guys You Don't Like My Posts I got a huge Engagement but Not any Likes Support me Guys Love You 😘 Question : Will $ETH Reaches $10K In January 2025
I'm starting to believe that btc stopped seeing miraculous gains when it became a futures casino. Can't be stopped. there's always someone more degenerative, and the market has grown more in degenerative speculators than actual investors. but it's a sign of the times. more people are desperate. fewer people can wait. if there was a way to indicate how many desperate degenerates were on futures, and how many average degens were on spot, and how many true investors were hodling = more predictable outcome. can anyone create this app?
how much of sol is crypto, and how much is hosted on traditional Amazon web services and other big tech cloud? it's a meme casino, that's all. but good luck to everyone involved
