You're in good company: Trusted by thousands of engineers, finance professionals, and investors. Seen by tens of millions. --- Professor Steve Keen's Ravel© framework called the 2008 financial crisis 36 months before Lehman. The IMF was calling soft landing. In 2010, the Revere Prize that followed had 1,152 votes from 2,500+ economists. More than twice Roubini and Baker combined. This is Rebel Economics with Professor Steve Keen. The same patented Ravel© framework now runs for ministries of finance, central bank advisors, and sovereign wealth funds. Stock-flow consistent. Built on accounting identities, not equilibrium ideology. The math the IMF still does not have in its textbook.

The Iran-US War Won't Just Destroy Oil Markets It Will Collapse Bitcoin. Most economists are focused on oil. But there's a deeper crisis hiding in plain sight and it starts with the energy Bitcoin needs to survive.

War reshapes energy. Energy shapes money. And Bitcoin, for all its digital promises, runs on electricity. This video examines how the ongoing \"iran us conflict\" highlights Bitcoin's perceived irrelevance, especially when compared to the established stability of \"fiat currency\".
