Simon Dixon Hard Talk

If Part 1 was about the money, Part 2 is about the dark power structures that weaponise it. In this continuation of Doc Malik’s epic sit-down with Simon Dixon, the conversation shifts from the mechanics of banking to the "Financial Industrial Complex"—the global network that uses debt, war, and intelligence operations to strip assets from nations and individuals. Simon argues that the "Deep State" is simply a subdivision of this complex, designed to enforce corporate interests rather than national security. In this episode, we cover: The Black Ops Budget: We discuss the $2.3 trillion that "disappeared" from the Pentagon budget the day before 9/11, and how the specific offices auditing this money were destroyed the next day. ⁠Funding Both Sides of War: The shocking history of the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) during WWII. Simon details how the central banking ledger system allowed warring nations to maintain financial continuity, effectively allowing the Allied and Axis powers to bank with the same institution while soldiers fought on the battlefield. The Origins of the CIA: A controversial look at how post-WWII intelligence agencies were formed by merging various powerful networks—including elements of the mob, foreign intelligence, and former enemy factions—to create a covert infrastructure for enforcing global resource extraction. The War on Europe: Simon presents the theory that the conflict in Ukraine is a strategic financial war designed to sever German-Russian energy ties, deindustrialise Germany, and asset-strip the European Union to prop up the US Dollar. The "Epstein" Intelligence Operation: Why the Jeffrey Epstein scandal shouldn't be viewed just as a case of individual perversion, but as a sophisticated blackmail sting operation run by intelligence agencies to compromise powerful figures and enforce control. The Rise of Sovereign Wealth: How nations like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the BRICS alliance are playing a long game to buy up Western assets and decouple from the American empire. ABOUT THIS CONVERSATION: This is Part 2 of a 4-part series. The original conversation with Simon Dixon was an epic four-hour deep dive that we have split up to ensure we cover every detail of how the world really works. ▶️ Watch Part 1: The Banking Ponzi Scheme, Bitcoin’s CIA Origins & The Trap of Debt (Part 1 of 4) https://youtu.be/y40U91im_iA Follow Doc Malik https://www.youtube.com/@docmalikpodcast #SimonDixon #DeepState #MissingTrillions https://www.simondixon.com

Recording date: 19th January 2026Duration: 56mins Is the money in your bank account actually yours — or is it just an IOU fuelling a global system of debt and control? In this explosive Part 1 of a 4-part series from a 4-hour conversation, Doc Malik sits down with former banker and Bitcoin veteran Simon Dixon to expose what he calls the modern financial Ponzi scheme. Doc begins with healthy scepticism, questioning whether cryptocurrency is just another “croc” sold to the masses. But Simon argues that once you strip away the scams and speculation, self-custody Bitcoin remains the only asset that allows you to truly own your wealth, transact without permission, and opt out of a failing legacy system. Together, they break down how the banking system is built on endless IOUs, expanding debt, and structural dependency — a trap that keeps individuals, institutions, and entire nations locked into a cycle that cannot sustain itself. They also begin exploring one of the most controversial questions surrounding Bitcoin: Was it purely a tool of liberation — or do its origins trace closer to intelligence agencies and state power than most people realise? This is only the beginning. Watch Part 1 of 4 on YouTube: https://youtu.be/y40U91im_iA https://www.simondixon.com

WEF 2026: Musk, Fink & The Hidden AI Energy War | Simon Dixon Davos is a performance, but the real agenda is in the signals.

The global headlines are chaotic. Escalations in Iran and Yemen scream of a world hurtling towards World War III. But what if the chaos is the point? What if the wars, the protests, and the political drama are nothing more than manufactured theater, designed to distract you while a coordinated global transition takes place right under your nose? The real conflict isn't on the battlefield; it's a currency war. This is a meticulously managed operation designed to asset strip the West, establish a new multipolar world order, and drain the wealth of the average person. The conflicts you see on the news are merely the cover story. This video is Part 3 segment of the SimonDixonHardTalk LIVE session that aired on my YouTube, X, and Rumble channels on January 16, 2026. The full 3-hour and 39-minute livestream, titled "Currency Wars, Power Struggles & Regime Change: The Real Global Wars Explained," covered the technical, macro, and geopolitical aspects of this transition.

The public power struggle between Donald Trump, BlackRock, and the Federal Reserve is pure theater, designed to distract you from the real story. The mainstream narrative is a smokescreen. What's really happening behind the scenes? By following the monetary flows, we can expose the true power dynamics shaping our world. Episode 112 is drawn exclusively from Part 2 of SimonDixonHardTalk, which aired LIVE on 16 January 2026. That segment, which was 44 minutes long, was part of the full 3-hour, 39-minute broadcast titled "Currency Wars, Power Struggles & Regime Change: The Real Global Wars Explained | SimonDixonHardTalk". My goal here is to make these complex ideas accessible so you can understand the real game being played. Watch full video on YouTube Read the blog. 

Welcome to 2026. In the first livestream of the year, Simon Dixon returns to deconstruct the 5 Currency Wars reshaping the global order and the internal civil war taking place within the United States over the future of money. As the world shifts to a multipolar system, Simon explains why we must look past the media "theater" to follow the real money flows driving conflict and regime change. From the freezing of assets in Venezuela to the nuclear mining negotiations in Ukraine, this episode exposes how Bitcoin and stablecoins are being weaponized and where your only true protection lies.   In this episode (Part 1 - This Week in Bitcoin): The 5 Currency Wars: A deep dive into the financial warfare unfolding across Iran, Venezuela, Ukraine, China, and the United States , . The Tether Freeze: Following the kidnapping of Maduro, Tether froze $182 million in Venezuelan wallets without a court order—proving stablecoins are tools for the surveillance state while self-custody remains the only exit , . Nuclear Mining in Ukraine: Reports that the US and Russia are negotiating the use of Europe’s largest nuclear power plant (Zaporizhzhia) for Bitcoin mining as part of a geopolitical settlement , . The Clarity Act Civil War: Inside the ruthless power struggle between the Bank Lobby (JP Morgan, Citi) and the Crypto/Asset Manager Lobby (BlackRock, Coinbase) , . The Verdict on Clarity: Good news and bad news—while the Act expands surveillance on intermediaries and stablecoins, it explicitly protects your right to hold private keys and transact peer-to-peer , . The Rebrand: Why Bitcoin Hard Talk is now Simon Dixon Hard Talk—expanding the mission to help sovereign wealth builders navigate the macro, geopolitical, and tech trends of the next 5 years , .

Money is the issue."   Watch the full episode: Currency Wars & Regime Change Explained | SimonDixonHardTalk LIVE | 16 Jan 2026 https://youtube.com/live/jFXJHeI9W7k Read the blog: The Real Fight Behind the Clarity Act, 5 Currency Wars & Bitcoin’s Role Disclaimer  This content is for informational and educational purposes only and represents the commentary of Simon Dixon.

Watch the Full Interview Recording on my YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/ERFdrhaxmzI   Who will replace the American Empire? In this highly anticipated debate, Simon Dixon sits down with Professor Jiang to discuss the shifting tides of global power, the future of the dollar, and the rise of new superpowers. In this intense debate recorded on Friday 9th January, 2026, I sit down with Professor Jiang from Predictive History to discuss the planned collapse of Pax Americana and the emergence of a new world order. While we both agree that we are witnessing a fundamental shift in global power, our views on who ultimately fills the vacuum in the Middle East and beyond differ significantly. Professor Jiang posits the rise of Pax Judeaica, arguing that Israel will become the nexus of global trade and power, leveraging its surveillance technology, human capital, and intelligence apparatus. Conversely, I contend that we are moving toward a GCC-controlled Middle East, but multipolar world order. In my view, Israel is being strategically burdened with debt and co-opted by a transnational financial industrial complex—including the US financial industrial complex, Gulf sovereign wealth and Chinese capital—to provide regional stability for profit rather than remaining a sovereign hegemon. Key topics covered in this debate: The Debt Crisis & The Fall of the Dollar: Why the United States is now subordinate to its bondholders and corporate interests, effectively losing its sovereign power. Pax Judeaica vs. The GCC: Is Jerusalem the new capital of transnational capital, or is the Middle East being divvied up by global banks?. The Role of Donald Trump: We discuss whether Trump is a "king of chaos" or a strategic agent installed to execute the transition to a multipolar world and a police state. The "Lynchpin" Event: We identify the potential destruction of the Al-Aqsa Mosque as the ultimate test of our competing theses. Global Flashpoints: Insights into the recent operations in Venezuela, the "theatrical" wars involving Iran and Israel, and the looming conflict between China and Japan. Financial Survival: The importance of following financial flows, the parabolic rise of Gold and Silver, and how to protect your family and community as the old system deconstructs. As I mention in the video, I believe real power is now stateless and transnational, superseding borders and utilizing national militaries as mere "militias" for financial interests. Watch/listen until the end to hear our closing remarks on why your money—not your vote—is your ultimate power in this rapidly changing landscape.

Publish date: 8th January 2026. Host: Peter McCormackPodcast title: Who Really Runs the World?Duration: 2 hours 3 minutes Watch on YouTube Read the blog Western politics looks like chaos right now — broken states, endless debt, permanent crisis. But when I sat down with Peter McCormack on January 8th, 2026, I explained why I don’t think it’s chaos at all. I believe it’s structure. In this conversation, I break down how modern power really works — through money creation, debt expansion, asset management, and access to capital. In that system, elections matter less than people think, national borders mean less than they used to, and governments increasingly behave like balance sheets rather than representatives of citizens. We go deep into how the debt-based system is kept alive through refinancing and rollover cycles, why inflation and bailouts aren’t accidents, and how the largest asset managers quietly influence outcomes without needing a political mandate. Wars, monetary intervention, rising inequality, and even social breakdown all follow the same incentives once you understand who benefits and how the game is designed. This isn’t just theory — it’s about power, money, and who actually makes the decisions, and what that means for anyone trying to build a life inside a system that’s no longer built to work for them.

Welcome back, Bitcoin Wealth Builder, to Episode 102 of BitcoinHardTalk! This is Part 2 of my pre-recorded interview with Archie from Bitcoin Archives. The feedback on Part 1 was immense. The same interview posted on Bitcoin Archives’ channel went viral, receiving over 128,000 views, confirming the global interest in exposing Wall Street’s attack phase on Bitcoin. In this episode, I begin with an exclusive introduction breaking down the major macro and geopolitical events of the week, including the flash crash—a massive, ginormous liquidation event—that happened in real time. This event was triggered by Donald Trump’s rhetoric on China tariffs, which serves as a financial weapon of mass destruction to manipulate people and steal their Bitcoin, precisely as we described. What We Cover in Part 2: 🚨 Exposing Financial Corruption and Wall Street’s Weapons The Corrupt System: Analysis of the financial system as a criminal network that is more powerful than government. The Celsius Beta Test: I share insights from two years working on the Celsius bankruptcy, which was a beta test for Wall Street strategies. We reveal how the Chapter 11 process allows lawyers to legally spend client money, functioning as a "scam on a scam". Creditors often lose their Bitcoin claim and are left with a dollar claim at the market bottom after an elaborate pump and dump scheme. Yield Traps: Discussing why Bitcoin treasury companies are a tool for the financial industrial complex to steal your Bitcoin and emphasizing that the road to the next crypto crash is paved with yield. Deep State & Proof of Weapons: Exploring the origins of intelligence agencies (like the CIA) and how they serve corporate interest rather than national security. The Orwellian Future: BlackRock’s plan to use tokenization of everything, stablecoins, and real-world assets to create an Orwellian surveillance state.   🌍 Geopolitics, De-Dollarisation, and the New World Order Trade War Analysis: Recap of how the tariff policy is a mechanism to reset the world order, driving capital flows to the BRICS corridor. Macro Updates: The Federal Reserve stopping quantitative tightening, the US government shutdown being a "hostage tactic" for debt refinance, and the managed transition in the Middle East away from the "forever war model". Global Shifts: How the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and China are negotiating a new multipolar world order by buying assets and freedom, leading to regional stability. 🛡️ Self-Protection Strategies Ultimate Defence: Reinforcing why Bitcoin held in self-custody is the ultimate defence against Wall Street’s attack phase, insulating you from operations like flash crashes and liquidations. Accumulation Principles: Advice on fundamental principles: No leverage, no debt, and no deviating from Bitcoin. When to Sell: How to calculate when to sell Bitcoin to enjoy life, stressing the importance of never resetting your accumulation back to zero. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Watch Part 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M-ixUDMIN1o&t=6393s A Quick Note on Censorship: This content is being shadowbanned.

Hey-Hey, Bitcoin Wealth Builders! Welcome to Episode 101 of BitcoinHardTalk! Today, we are running a slightly different format. As I have been travelling, I won't be covering the usual segments: This Week in Bitcoin, This Week in Macro, and This Week in Geopolitics. Instead, I'm bringing you an explosive, pre-recorded, two-part interview I did face-to-face with Archie from Bitcoin Archives. In Part 1, we expose the shocking truth: BlackRock’s evil plan to steal your Bitcoin. I believe 99% of people are falling for it, and even existing Bitcoin holders aren't safe. This is the Wall Street attack phase, and you are in a 5-year race to accumulate as much Bitcoin as you can before it’s too late. On top of the interview, I kick things off with an exclusive analysis I recently recorded for this live broadcast—breaking down the major macro and geopolitical events that unfolded this week.   🔥 What We Expose in This Episode (Part 1) The Wall Street Attack Phase: Learn why there will never be another five years like the five years ahead for accumulating Bitcoin. The Two-Tiered Bitcoin World: We analyze the critical difference between Bitcoin held in Wall Street custody (via ETFs, pensions, and loans) and Bitcoin held in self-custody. The Celsius Beta Test: My insights from two years of working on the Celsius bankruptcy. This was the exact beta test Wall Street is using to build the financial industrial complex around Bitcoin. The Centralization Trap: Going deep into Operation Chokepoint 2.0, which I believe was a deep state effort to wipe out crypto-friendly banks and reset the ecosystem specifically to usher in the BlackRock ETF and trick you into centralizing your Bitcoin. Wall Street’s Weapons: How Bitcoin ETFs are set to be used as a financial weapon of mass destruction, and why public companies, like MicroStrategy, function as an asset of Wall Street. The Orwellian Future: What the world will look like in the Wall Street tokenized, financialized, securitized, stablecoin world the Trump administration is delivering. Developing Conviction: I share my journey, including my failure trying to build a full reserve bank, and how Johnny Bitcoin and Amir Taki got me into Bitcoin in the first place.   🛡️ Protect Yourself: Proof of Work vs. Proof of Weapons You have a choice: end up on a universal basic income surveillance state or secure your Bitcoin in self-custody. Understanding Proof of Work allows you to navigate the institutional takeover and avoid being margin called with your Bitcoin. I want you on the right side of this change so that we can make this transition with peace, love, and unity.   🚀 Looking Ahead: BitcoinHardTalk Episode 102 (Part 2) Next week, we return for Part 2 of this interview. We dig much deeper into the geopolitical side, exploring the corruption of the financial system through the Proof of Weapons network. We will also cover the traps of Bitcoin yield and borrowing against your Bitcoin, and how to calculate when to sell your Bitcoin. Support the Show (Help Beat the Shadowban!)

Hey-Hey, Bitcoin Wealth Builders! We’ve reached a milestone—Episode 100 of BitcoinHardTalk—and tonight we’re taking on one of the most consequential announcements of the year. Last week we decoded Trump’s UN speech. This week, we turn to Trump’s joint announcement with Netanyahu of the 20-step Gaza Plan—and the seismic consequences it carries for global power. What I'll cover: The Gaza Plan dissected — watching Trump & Netanyahu’s announcement and exposing its real implications. The geopolitical fallout—how the plan accelerates the end of US hegemony in the Middle East. The macroeconomic picture—why war-driven fiscal dominance reshapes markets and pushes inflationary policy. 💡 Protecting yourself after the analysis: Why we are entering a multipolar world of currency wars. Why Bitcoin in self-custody, secured by Proof of Work, is your hedge against political and economic instability. 🎉 Thank you for joining us on this journey—100 episodes of breaking down money, power, and Bitcoin. Tonight’s show is one you won’t want to miss. Peace, Simon Dixon 🚀

Hey-Hey, Bitcoin Wealth Builders! BitcoinHardTalk Episode 99. This week we’re doing something different. Normally, every episode is structured around: This Week in Bitcoin, This Week in Macro & This Week in Geopolitics… …But for Episode 99 we’re breaking from that format to focus entirely on Donald Trump’s United Nations speech—and what it really means for the dollar, global power, and the future of money whilst pulling out the macro and geopolitical history, lessons and analysis to make sense of it all.   What I'll cover - Trump’s UN speech decoded— beneath the rhetoric of “dollar & US strength” lies a more sinister undertone: a covert alignment with the Proof of Weapons network. - Dollar fragility—how the appearance of strength may mask cracks in the system as nations seek to escape US hegemony. - The Proof of Weapons network—interpreting the speech as part of the global system of weapons, alliances, and financial control.   Protecting yourself after the analysis Once we’ve unpacked Trump’s UN address, I’ll reflect on how you can protect yourself: - Why most crypto tools are part of the Proof of Weapons network, captured and compromised. - Why Bitcoin in self-custody, secured by Proof of Work, is different—and how it frees you from the very system Trump’s words represent.   🎉 Looking ahead: Episode 100 Next week is a milestone. For Episode 100, I'll be back with the usual format—This Week in Bitcoin, This Week in Macro, This Week in Geopolitics—to bring you the sharpest weekly analysis of money and power.   Watch BitcoinHardTalk Episode 99 I'll decode Trump’s UN speech, expose the Proof of Weapons network, and show why self-custody Bitcoin is the ultimate hedge.   Peace, Simon Dixon 🚀
