One story from last week’s global news is impossible to ignore.
The conflict involving Israel, the United States, and Iran.
Honestly, the world feels increasingly unstable.
And since I just left my company job, it also means one more thing for me to worry about 😂
What worries me even more is the situation around the Strait of Hormuz.
If this disruption continues for a long time, countries like Thailand and Japan, which depend heavily on imported energy, could face very serious consequences.
Thailand’s strategic oil reserves are said to last about 95 days (earlier reports mentioned around 65 days).
Japan, on the other hand, reportedly has around 254 days of reserves.
But roughly 90% of Japan’s imported crude oil passes through the Strait of Hormuz.
In other words, if that route is blocked for an extended period, the ripple effects could be severe — possibly even stagflation-like conditions.
Thinking about things like this makes the world feel a little fragile.
And yet, in times like these, I still see many people saying Bitcoin is just a Ponzi scheme.
Honestly, I don’t really understand that.
Moments of global uncertainty like this are exactly when I become curious about how Bitcoin behaves.
Will it act as “Bitcoin in times of crisis”?
Or will it simply move with the rest of the market?
Either way, I’ll be watching closely.
Because sometimes it feels like the real conflict isn’t only between countries.
As one observer put it:
We are not in a war between Iran, Israel, and America. We are in a war between the military industrial complex and the financial industrial complex.
When you follow the money, the story often looks very different.
Some people even say this moment could be part of a much larger global transition.
I don’t know if that’s true.
But one thing is certain:
The world feels like it’s shifting beneath our feet.
And moments like this remind me why I’m trying to build a life that is a little more sovereign, a little more independent, step by step.

Thank you for such a thoughtful comment. I really enjoyed reading it.
I think you’re absolutely right that uncertainty today isn’t only about technology or economics. The gradual loss of strong social networks and community ties probably plays a huge role in how unstable the world feels to many people.
Your point about opportunities flowing through trusted human connections resonates with me a lot. In many ways, real networks — local communities, friends, extended families — might be one of the most resilient forms of “infrastructure” we still have.
It’s interesting that while technology keeps pushing us toward more digital systems, the things that often matter most are still very human.
Wishing you the best with your next step. It sounds like you’re approaching it in a very thoughtful way.
And thank you very much for the worm zap 🙏

The economy feels uneasy — AI layoffs, housing market signals, and growing uncertainty. And yet, I still don’t regret leaving my company.

• I let go of my safety net — and life replied fast.
• Joined my family’s Chinese New Year for the first time (freedom perks).
• Freedom feels wide… and heavy. No guarantees, no boss, just me.
• Global uncertainty is at a historic peak — maybe “safety” is an illusion.
•Started building an AI school (tiny landing page + Meta ads).
• Bitcoin’s big topic: BIP110.
• AI highlight: a guy vibe-coded an app to talk to statues (!)
• A cat wandered into our home 🐈‍⬛
