Dollar has gained value against other currencies, and lost value against real goods. The Fed has pulled liquidity out of the markets which has caused all risk assets to lose value. I don't understand your point here. Nothing about what I'm saying says what you seem to think it says

Not really, there's just less real goods (specifically food) to buy vs demand for those goods.

We'll see, I would argue that price increases will be sticky even if supply chains were solved tomorrow. Guess we don't really know for sure yet

Fears of 'subprime' carbon assets stall crypto rainforest mission | Context
Cryptocurrency firms like Brazil's Moss are turning carbon credits into digital tokens, aiming to boost investment in tackling climate change and Amazon deforestation, but the practice has sparked concern
longreads.trust.org
Long read about an in-depth investigation into tokenizing carbon credits in Brazil. Not going to be for everybody on this board (maybe not for anybody), but I found it very interesting. Might just be because I hold a lot of VET and vechain is making forays into this same thing in the Far East.
Like most articles, this one is skeptical/dubious (but fairly so) about the crypto industry, but like most of these articles if you read between the lines it feels quite bullish for crypto.

I've been sitting here trying to figure out why the crypto market was bucking the nadaq, instead of moving in lock step (like it normally does). This explains it.

I think I've been calling that for a while in the politics and Ukraine threads. Easiest way to replace SWIFT, just use a reliable cryptocurrency. Buy, transfer, sell quickly enough to avoid undue risk to market price shifts. It's backed by an immutable ledger, it's trackable. And it's not controlled by a governmental organization.

Zenitco (Russian weapon parts manufacturer) takes BTC payment for American customers. Good chance your stuff will get nabbed by customs when it comes in to the country, but you can still try. Few other Russian based sites are the same way.

I know, but I am thinking more for the bank 2 bank, and large corp to large corp settling of debts and obligations... Now just worrying about my sweet Russian AK parts kit getting nabbed by the man.

I’ve never heard of this guy but had to check it out. Seems like a class act. Apparently makes videos of buying hundreds of dollars worth of Magic cards et al, then begs for money. Also, this:
