Note that our hypothesis has 2 dominant capital carriers: BTC and XLM.

If we chart these volumes out, it’s curious to note the large spikes during USA holidays:

These BTC/XLM flows represent roughly $3.6B of capital flight since November-to Coinbase alone!
I didnt go back farther because I had to hand-collate all this, but it could be interesting for someone who, like me, obviously lives in moms basement.

Oh… did I mention the meal also comes with a beverage?

And it's a fun one: go pull up a chart of XLMUSD (proposed capital carrier)

Wait never mind, I'll do it so nobody has to get up:

Notice how that thing “moons” in November, and then again later?

Now: guess when XLM volumes to Coinbase started...

Now this is a tidy transport mechanism!

Okay, I'll explain: let's say you're moving capital out of but you'd also like double your money.

  1. Put into XLM
  2. Jam XLM price higher
  3. Convert to Dalla Bills

I mean that's pretty incredible - Np wonder I've been consigned to the world of staying poor, I'd never see that angle.

Well… except for right now when I just did.

But other than that, I really "don't understand crypto."
