Sanchez was already polling ahead of the PP and Vox prior to the Iran War - https://www.theolivepress.es/spain-news/2026/02/19/surprise-polling-reveals-left-wing-pedro-sanchezs-psoe-holds-10-point-lead-over-pp/.

And his opposition to Trump, while Vox was eager to lick his boots, is a big plus here.

Hot pies, motherfucker

Japan was already ready to surrender actually. The fire bombings had done the job.

That’s just FOREX with extra steps?

If Russia controls the entire supply of Bitcoin (which is what you’re saying) then why would anyone with USD want to buy it? At that point, being owned by Russia entirely, it’s just a Russian currency.

The whole supposed attraction of Bitcoin is that it’s not a government currency, and the supply isn’t controlled by a central bank. Ethereum has additional uses to that, but that’s still one of the prime factors as well.

The government you’re talking about can print money at will.

Spain has entered the chat, at least symbolically

Again, why?

Sure, there’s a large network advantage.

But here you’re talking about a hypothetical where, for some reason, a major government has bought up all blockchain tokens and won’t release them. So nobody’s on the original one anyways.

and they’re massively against the US, especially as Trump has tried to attack Spain

Vox is a minority party, and are not going to win the general. The danger is only they’d be put into a coalition with the center right party, PP.

And that’s looking much less likely - Sanchez and the center-left aren’t overly popular, but opposition to the Iran War and the US in general is massively popular. Vox is the only party that’s been dumb enough to support Trump over Spain (ironic for supposed nationalists), and it’s going to cost them. Even the remnants of the Falange are breaking with them on this.

The price goes up as you buy it.

You could attempt to corner the market, but in doing so, you’re also going to be massively enriching the current holders.

What point would taking the entire supply do - especially since you can easily just start another blockchain?

How is buying the asset fucking with the supply?

If you mean hoarding it, that’s pretty much all Bitcoin is good for.

Fiat has value because the government demands taxes in it. If you don’t pay your taxes, they put you in jail.

That’s the point of crypto - unless you can alter 51% of the blockchain, you can’t.

yeah, the cryptoleftists community has found some decent actual use

Sounds like a shitty situation

I love it when you call me big poopa
