Weaponizing Crisis: The Asset-Stripping Phase | Simon Dixon Hard Talk LIVE (Full Episode)

Jul 03, 2026
 

Hey hey sovereign wealth builders, 

Simon Dixon here.

This week's Hard Talk LIVE explores what I believe are some of the most important structural changes shaping today's financial system, geopolitical landscape and the future of money. Rather than looking at markets, immigration, artificial intelligence, Bitcoin and geopolitics as separate stories, I explain why I believe they're connected through what I describe as the Asset-Stripping Phase.

In Part 1, I examine the week's biggest developments, including the hidden weakness beneath headline stock market performance, the financialisation of society, demographic decline, immigration, developments in Lebanon, and the accelerating transition towards digital financial infrastructure.

In Part 2, I join Alexej Jordanov from GoldRepublic Global for a deeper discussion on the Asset-Stripping Phase, exploring the roles of the Military-Industrial Complex (MIC), Financial-Industrial Complex (FIC) and Technical-Industrial Complex (TIC), along with Bitcoin's role in preserving financial sovereignty.
