🚨 PUTIN JUST WEAPONIZED BITCOIN AS A “PEACE OFFER”?
While the world was celebrating Christmas, Putin dropped a geopolitical bomb:
“The US wants joint control of Europe’s largest nuclear plant … for Bitcoin mining.”
THE CLAIM:
Dec 24 — Putin told Russian business leaders Washington proposed sharing Zaporizhzhia NPP’s 6 GW for crypto mining.
(Source: Russian state media only. No US confirmation.)
THE REALITY CHECK:
• IAEA Director Grossi: Restart “impossible” — no cooling water, no stable power
• Plant lost external power 12 times since 2022
• All 6 reactors in cold shutdown
• Russia licensed Reactor 1 anyway (Dec 23)
THE TELL:
Zelenskyy called joint control with Russia “not entirely realistic.”
“How can you have joint commerce with the Russians after everything?”
WHAT PUTIN IS REALLY DOING:
Testing whether Trump’s Bitcoin obsession can legitimize Russia’s occupation of Ukrainian infrastructure.
This isn’t about energy — it’s a sovereignty trap dressed as crypto.
THE TIMING:
Trump meets Zelenskyy at Mar-a-Lago TODAY.
Zaporizhzhia is one of 3 unresolved points in the 20-point peace framework.
Putin framed the negotiation before it even started.
WATCH FOR:
• USA acknowledges “energy discussions” = major geopolitical shift
• Zelenskyy concedes on plant = sovereignty breach
• IAEA safety veto = deal breaker
The first country to monetize occupied nuclear infrastructure for Bitcoin sets a civilizational precedent.
That’s the real story.
