Summary

BTC Sessions Ep. 078: The Iran War Was Theatrical, FIC Wins & Bitcoin Manipulation Exposed | Simon Dixon The Iran ceasefire was timed to the SpaceX IPO. The petrodollar is being deliberately broken. And your Bitcoin is being systematically moved into institutional custody — whether you realize it or not. Simon Dixon returns to lay out exactly how the managed transition to a multipolar world works, who's pulling the strings, and why self-custody is the only rational response. You'll learn why Simon argues China — not the US — won the financial and geopolitical contest, how the closure of the Strait of Hormuz was a manufactured pricing event to concentrate wealth upward, and why BlackRock's new Bitcoin Premium Income ETF is a carrot designed to get you to hand over your keys. You'll also understand the connection between digital ID legislation in the UK and Canada, AI surveillance infrastructure, and the "you will own nothing" endgame Simon has been tracking for years. Specific signals covered include the 30-year yield, the Japan carry trade break, the Bank of Japan rate hike to 1%, and the bond market dynamics that set the timeline for the entire war. ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 - Intro 1:14 - Simon Dixon Returns: Iran Deal and SpaceX IPO Timing 1:56 - China Wins: Financial Industrial Complex vs Transnational Capital 3:22 - Netanyahu as Middle Management in Power Hierarchy 3:58 - Multipolar Transition: Middle East as Financial Corridor 5:24 - Sovereign Wealth Funds and Informal Capital Alliance 6:41 - Manufacturing Strait of Hormuz Crisis for Wealth 7:38 - Markets Reveal Iran War as Theater via Oil Gold Bonds 9:25 - Liquidity Needs: Ping-Trump Meeting and SpaceX IPO 11:21 - Managed Transition and Bounded Escalation Explained 14:52 - Iran Deepens China Ties, Israel…
