4/ one thing i wonder about that is not covered in the substack post is whether china ended up taking over part of Epstein's financial operations. i can offer only weak evidence for this theory but among other things:
a) Epstein died 3 months after the first and by far largest crypto #stablecoin (#Tether) really started ramping up its chinese operations by bringing #JustinSun on board.
b) Epstein was in regular correspondence with at least one of the founders of #Tether at the time the company was founded
c) i have heard a lot of rumours from semi-credible people in the asian crypto industry that Tether started as a russian money laundry before evolving into a chinese money laundry. even putting those rumours aside it's been extensively reported that #Tether moves enormous amounts of money for Russian oligarchs, organized crime groups, and middle eastern autocracies, AKA "the same kind of people that hung out with jeffrey epstein"
d) there's almost no asian women in epstein's correspondence of any kind but then suddenly a few years before his death epstein starts emailing at least two young chinese girls. he flies both of them from china to the US and IIRC maybe europe too.

@Skwerlgyrl yes, they are now suing each other. it's scammer on scammer violence and the proper response is to root for the bullets.
but CZ is only marginally better than justin sun and he's still very much in business with both the trump fam as well as His Excellency.
the big picture is that the chinese oligarchs are just much better than their american competitors at building businesses under corrupt and authoritarian regimes. an american investor looks at the TRUMP memecoin and is like "lol wtf". Justin Sun immediately puts in tens of millions of dollars.
here's #CZ and #JustinSun in #Pakistan, which you'll note has been in the news a lot lately.

Justin Sun accuses the Trump family's World Liberty Financial of 'Criminal Extortion'
An awkward detail (that I'm not sure has been reported) is in 2025 Tron Inc majority owned by Sun's father signed a lease agreement for 2,791 sq feet in Trump Tower NYC through 2028

fascinating history of the rise and fall of one of the world's top scam lords operating out of #Cambodia, Prince Group CEO Chen Zhi from one of the incredibly brave Cambodian reporters on the ground who've been tracking the takeover of the country by Chinese organized crime, funded by crypto scams.
Zhi was just arrested and extradited (to china) and the US government seized $13 billion worth of his #bitcoin a few months ago (China got the man, US got the bitcoins).
#PrinceGroup and the massive #pigbutchering cyberscam slave compounds Chen Zhi operated are among the biggest users of #Tether's #stablecoin #USDT on Trump business partner #JustinSun's blockchain #Tron.

#TheCryptocalypseChronicles: A Rather Alarming Epstein / Russia / Israel Crypto TimelineThe recently released #EpsteinFiles make it crystal clear that #Epstein's involvement in #crypto was much deeper and long lasting than had been previously understood.
Not only do we now know that Epstein funded bitcoin's development team at #MIT starting from 2015, we also now know that #Epstein introduced #Tether co-founder, #SteveBannon business partner, #EOS scammer, and man with an extremely sordid history of sex crimes against children #BrockPierce to former #Harvard president #LarrySummers. Summers would go on to join the board of #DigitalCurrencyGroup (#DCG), the most important crypto VC fund in the U.S.
Beyond that there's
1. Epstein's proposal to a #Russian #FSB operative that they should create a #BRICS stablecoin
2. A bunch of sinister sounding emails between Epstein and"influential men" in #Qatar about "the e-currency"
3. Bannon + Epstein's plot to undermine Europe with crypto money
4. The integration of #BrockPierce and the #Netanyahu family
5. Accusations from the former head of #Mossad's financial unit about Netanyahu's involvement in crypto
6. The relationship between Chinese criminal #MilesGuo AKA #MilesKwok, Steve Bannon, and Epstein
...and so much more. Retoots appreciated.

Mentre costruisce il potere negli Stati Uniti, il megacryptofuffaro Justin Sun combatte per riscrivere la propria storia
Il miliardario delle criptovalute #JustinSun ha fatto causa a #Bloomberg per aver pubblicato dettagli sul suo patrimonio, forniti da lui stesso per qualificarsi per il loro Billionaire Index. Sun, inizialmente desideroso che #Bloomberg pubblicizzasse il suo status di multimiliardario, si è infuriato quando ha scoperto che intendevano pubblicare una ripartizione approssimativa degli asset che compongono il suo patrimonio in criptovalute. Questo potrebbe essere dovuto al fatto che rivela un dettaglio scomodo: la maggior parte dei suoi asset è costituita da #TRX, la criptovaluta emessa dalla sua società #Tron, e possiede la maggior parte dei TRX in circolazione (63%).

#TheCryptocalypseChronicles: Epstein's Arrest Shook The BlockchainJeffrey Epstein's arrest seems to have set off a wave of suspicious crypto payments that have heretofore gone unexamined.
1. The 2nd highest volume day in bitcoin history came a week after Epstein died.
2. #Stablecoin transfer volumes doubled less than 48 hours after Epstein was arrested. In particular #Tether, the stablecoin whose money is managed by Epstein's next door neighbor and #Trump's current Secretary of Commerce, saw on chain volumes skyrocket.
Also there's the matter of a bunch of suspicious deaths among Epstein's crypto circle.

a russian hosting service that takes payment in crypto, Aeza Group, was just hit with #OFAC sanctions.
they've sent funds to a bunch of the shadiest crypto exchanges - #Cryptomus, #MEXC, #Binance, and (of course) #HTX, the crypto exchange run by the business partner of the president of the united states.
also looks like they took payment in #Tether, the #stablecoin whose money is managed by america's secretary of commerce howard lutnick.

a few weeks ago right before #Israel attacked #Iran #Tether froze a #Tron wallet that had over the course of a year managed to receive almost $2 billion, at least $1.2 bn of which came from #Binance (which historically did huge business in Iran).
there was only $2.5 million in the wallet at the time of the freeze but in terms of how much money flowed through it, it's the 4th highest volume wallet ever frozen.
based on the fact that another wallet frozen ca. the same time w/similar usage patterns turned out to be linkable to #Hezbollah, the govt of #Iran, and a dark market for nation state sized orders of weapons & #drugs (#HuionePay / #HuioneGuarantee), I have a hunch this wallet was also used by the #IRGC to fund its proxies in the region like the #Houthis and #Hezbollah and #Israel has chosen not to disclose that it was responsible for the seizure yet.

Since #Israel attacked #Iran Tether has frozen 112 blockchain wallets on Tron and Ethereum (the #crypto equivalent of freezing a bank account, usually on suspicion/proof of money laundering).- Collectively those wallets received ~$700 million before being frozen
- The top 40 of those accounts are *all* on #JustinSun's #Tron blockchain
- Iranian exchanges almost exclusively use #Tether on Tron for USD xfers. They even publicly instruct their users on how to avoid #sanctions
- The Iranian govt, including the #IRGC (a sanctioned #terrorist group), has long been rumoured to be among the Iranians using Tether to move money to their proxies like #Hezbollah and #Hamas
- Israelis hacked the largest Iranian crypto exchange #Nobitex for $90 million last week. Nobitex is the largest user of USDT that I know of in Iran
- Justin Sun is now Trump's biz partner (and #HowardLutnick has been Tether's partner for yrs)Lots more details here:

"#Stablecoins remained the primary choice for #terrorist financing organizations" according to #TRMLabs (who have a questionable history as far as downplaying things like crypto's terrorist financing use cases but are at least more reliable than #Chainalysis)
and when they say "stablecoins" they really mean "#Tether on the blockchain (#Tron) owned by #Trump's new business partner #JustinSun".

Apparently the #Houthis have been using #Tether's USDT stablecoin to do [whatever], because #OFAC just placed sanctions on a bunch of USDT wallets on #JustinSun's #Tron blockchain that they claim are connected to the Houthis.
Reminder that Justin Sun is Donald Trump's business partner in #WorldLibertyFinancial and #HowardLutnick manages Tether's money, so now you have a situation where Trump & co. are profiting from the same people they are bombing.

Trump’s World Liberty Financial (#WLFI) crypto grift is financially invested in #Ethena, the new project of Arthur Hayes, one of the 3 #BitMEX guys that just got pardoned.
The WLFI "investment" was made on inauguration day, at the same time World Liberty Financial invested into legendary Chinese crypto scammer Justin Sun’s token.
Justin Sun also got a pardon in the form of a having the SEC charges against him and his company dropped.

Trump Media (AKA "#TruthSocial") signs agreement to partner with #CryptoDotCom and launch ETFs.
(note that i'm having a bit of trouble confirming this, though I don't doubt it at all.)
I'm reminded of a tweet by #Tether CEO #PaoloArdoino a few years ago attacking #CryptoCom as being out of money and about to collapse, but either way CDC used to be and probably still is part of the Tether cartel with #JustinSun etc.
