Since 2011, the Swiss franc has gained 16% against the US dollar, while the Japanese yen has lost 50%.

Some fiat currencies simply die faster than others.

Instead of cash, they are greeted with an apt message:
GLORY TO UKRAINE!
FLEE CRIMEA!

Ukraine showcased Liutyi with four missiles at Farnborough — a radical shift in capability.

🔥 What Liutyi used to be
• Fixed‑wing long‑range drone • 250–300 kg • 50–75 kg warhead • Range: 1000–1700 km • Used as a one‑way strike drone • Responsible for 80% of Ukraine’s long‑range attacks in 2024
🔥 What Liutyi could become
• Four missiles, 200 km range • ~500 km/h • Fires from standoff distance • Hits four separate targets • Can return for refuel and rearm → A suicide drone becomes a reusable long‑range strike aircraft.
🔥 Strategic impact
• Russian air defenses face even more saturation • Ukraine gains deep‑strike capability without losing the platform • Missiles likely coordinate‑guided • Ideal for fixed targets: refineries, depots, logistics hubs

🎯 Bottom line
Liutyi evolves from a disposable weapon into a mini‑bomber. If produced, it dramatically increases Ukraine’s ability to hit Russia far behind the front.

🚨 U.S. TREASURY SECRETARY ASSURED TO INTERVENE TO STOP BANK OF JAPAN’S DOOMSDAY BUTTON

Article 589 of Japanese law lets them instantly kill every foreign loan interest and refinance deal. Past approvals? Worthless. Rolling over cheap yen debt? DEAD.

Meanwhile Japan’s economy is already on life support:

• Yen crashing harder every week
• BoJ forced to jack up rates after years of free money
• Reverse carry trade exploding as everyone races to unwind
• Japan dumping hundreds of billions in U.S. Treasuries
• Multiple failed interventions already burned through their ammo

Worst-case scenario? Global funding markets freeze overnight. U.S. bond yields rocket. Wall Street margin calls cascade. Banks and hedge funds that lived on free Japanese money start collapsing one by one.

The West has been addicted to Japan’s cheap cash for decades. One legal switch and the entire system goes cold turkey… hard.

Finance Minister threatened to take “bold actions” and SBI Holdings Japan CEO said that the Petrodollar system is at risk.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has assured support to Japan with very limited choices.

Japan is also pivoting to Digital Assets to try control their incoming liquidity crisis.

This isn’t a warning.
This is the beginning of the end.

‼️ Russia has abandoned the Black Sea for all types of shipping.

First, the Black Sea fleet gave up and hid from drones in Novorossiysk.

Now, oil loading has stopped in Novorossiysk, and all ships were warned that Russian waters are unsafe.

Why, did something happen?

🚨🇷🇺⛽️ RUSSIA SUFFERS A MAJOR BLOW AS A KEY BLACK SEA OIL EXPORT TERMINAL HALTS TANKER OPERATIONS.

According to Bloomberg, the Sheskharis oil terminal on Russia’s Black Sea coast has officially stopped receiving tankers since July 21.

Since the beginning of 2026, the terminal had exported an average of 650,000 barrels of oil per day, accounting for roughly one-fifth of Russia’s total oil exports. The suspension therefore represents a significant disruption to one of Moscow’s most important energy export hubs.

The development comes as Russia’s Ministry of Defense officially declared that Russia’s exclusive economic zone in the Black Sea has become hazardous for navigation due to continuous Ukrainian aerial strikes.

The timing of these events highlights the growing impact of Ukraine’s long-range campaign against Russia’s strategic infrastructure, with attacks increasingly threatening not only military facilities but also the energy and maritime networks that generate billions of dollars in export revenue.

❗️🇷🇺✈️🇺🇦 Ukrainian radio technology and military communications expert Serhiy "Flash" Beskrestnov published details regarding a modified Russian Shahed strike drone payload:

🗣️ "This is what the submunition looks like that Shahed drones occasionally drop through a specialized hatch.
A single Shahed carries up to 22 units of such submunitions. Each unit is equipped with a timer-controlled mechanical or electronic detonator, manually set prior to launch with delay intervals ranging from 24 hours up to 5 days.
The Shahed drops these delayed-action explosives along its flight path before striking its final target. Because they can detonate at any moment without warning, even the State Emergency Service (SES) uses specialized EOD remote robots to disarm and dispose of them."

🔥🛢️ Today, an oil refinery in Tyumen, was attacked by drones. The capacity of the Tyumen Oil Refinery (the Antipinsky Oil Refinery) is 7.5–8 million tons of oil per year. It is 2,000 km from the front.

🚨 JUST IN: Amazon-backed RIVR is testing delivery robots in extreme weather and challenging terrain to prepare them for real-world deployments.

Chinese company Unitree reveal their "all terrain" wheeled robot.

The military potential for this technology is obvious.

Europe is so far behind China, its scary.

🇺🇸🇨🇳Despite Trump’s claim that Xi promised no weapons for Iran, Beijing may still be helping Tehran - quietly.

Trump says Xi pledged not to supply weapons to Iran. Yet rumors swirl of Chinese air-defense systems moving via third parties to hide the trail.

What’s clear is China is already shipping dual-use parts - sensors, semiconductors, and materials for drones and missiles.

Why risk it? Iran supplies China with 90% of its oil exports at a deep discount - cheap energy for Beijing, vital cash for Tehran. Regime change would end that.

A Middle East fight also drains U.S. forces, weakening American deterrence in the Indo-Pacific and rattling Asian allies.

Most valuable of all: China gets a live look at U.S. weapons and vulnerabilities - lessons it can apply in a future Taiwan crisis.

He really looks very dead ☠

👀 Ships involved in transporting military cargo from Iran, as well as a military ship, have been attacked in the Caspian Sea, — Zelenskyy.

Today in 1946, the U.S. carries out the famous "Baker" nuclear test at Bikini Atoll in the northern Marshall Islands. The 23-kiloton blast engulfs a fleet of 95 surplus warships, including the carrier Saratoga, Yamamoto's flagship the Nagato and the German cruiser Prinz Eugen.

(ODD SIDEBAR: Hundreds of goats and pigs were placed aboard the vessels to measure the effects of a nuclear blast upon ships' crews. The vast majority of animals perished in the explosion; a handful of surviving animals died later of radiation sickness. Incredibly, one baby pig, known only as #311, somehow survived after suffering minor radiation exposure. She was taken back to the U.S. for further study where she recovered. The animal became a popular Washington D.C. zoo attraction and lived another four years.)
