I just saw a thread summarizing one of the most disturbing geopolitical scenarios we could imagine. Listen to this.

Everything started in 2024. Israel eliminated the leaders of Hamas and Hezbollah, then directly struck Iran and practically destroyed all of its air defenses. Iran found itself completely exposed from the sky.

June 2025: the IAEA confirms that Iran had enough enriched uranium for 9 nuclear warheads. One day later, boom. Israel launches Operation Ascending Lion with more than 200 aircraft and more than 100 targets. Mossad agents inside Iranian territory destroy missile launchers. In a matter of hours, Iranian airspace is under Israeli control.

On June 22, the United States joins with bunker-buster bombs on underground nuclear sites that Israel couldn’t reach. Ceasefire on June 24. The nuclear program, the missile arsenal, air defenses: all devastated.

But this is where it gets really serious. The economy collapses. The rial hits historic lows. Inflation at 42%. Food prices increase by 72%. Cooking oil doubles overnight. Meanwhile, the government increases military spending by 150% while offering wage hikes that cover only 40% of inflation. They spend on weapons while people starve to death.

December 28, 2025: merchants at Tehran’s Grand Bazaar go on strike. It spreads across all 31 provinces. It’s the biggest insurrection since the 1979 revolution. Protesters demand an end to the Repubblica Islamica dell'Iran.

January 8, 2026: Khamenei orders the forces to show no mercy. Shootings from the crowd. At least 7,000 confirmed dead, even though some estimates say more than 30,000 in 48 hours. Internet is shut down nationwide to hide everything.

Trump warns Iran, then deploys the largest U.S. military buildup in the Middle East since the Iraq War of 2003. Two aircraft carriers, guided-missile destroyers. The EU designates the IRGC as a terrorist organization. Iran attempts to seize a U.S. tanker in the Strait of Hormuz. An American F-35 shoots down an Iranian drone. Live-fire drills. Oil rises by 7%. Negotiations continue.

Yesterday they announced major progress. Then today, it all happens.

February 28, 2026. Operation Epic Fury for the Americans. Operation Roaring Lion for the Israelis. Attacks in Tehran, Isfahan, Qom, Karaj, Kermanshah. Attacks near Khamenei’s compound. Satellite images show destroyed buildings. An attack reported at a school killed 40–50 people. Trump calls for regime change and tells the Iranian people: “Take control of your government. Your hour of freedom is within reach.”

U.S. officials say this is a campaign that will last several days. Congress was not consulted.

Iran responds immediately. For the first time, it strikes ALL U.S. bases in the Gulf simultaneously. Qatar, Kuwait, United Arab Emirates, Bahrain. Missiles toward Israel. Interceptions over Dubai, Doha, Abu Dhabi. Many Gulf states close their airspace.

The only Gulf state not hit? Oman. The mediator who said yesterday that peace was within reach.

Do you understand what that means? 20% of the world’s oil passes through the Strait of Hormuz. That strait is now a war zone. Goldman Sachs says oil could exceed $100. Expect massive divestment when the markets open Monday.

This is one of the most significant geopolitical events of the 21st century. The next few days will be EXTREMELY volatile. I don’t know about you, but I’m watching how the situation develops minute by minute. Crypto markets will be wild.
