The Board of Peace: America’s Retreat & Middle East Reset | Simon Dixon
Podcast Description
The "Board of Peace" isn't a diplomatic breakthrough—it's an exit strategy. In this episode, Simon Dixon decodes the signal that marks America’s managed retreat from the Middle East and the end of the unipolar moment.
In this episode:
- Peace as Profit: Why the Military-Industrial Complex is pivoting from perpetual war to reconstruction, and why the Financial Industrial Complex (FIC) is betting on stability.
- The Middle East Reset: How China and the Gulf nations forced a new order, effectively ending the "Greater Israel" project.
- America’s Managed Decline: Why Trump’s initiative is actually a mechanism to downsize global commitments while preserving narrative control.
- Bringing the War Home: The dark reality of how surveillance and control tactics tested abroad are now being deployed domestically against Western citizens.

The Hidden Costs of the Information War & Market Update (30th March 2026)
In this episode of Bitcoin Hard Talk, the host provides a sobering update on the escalating global information war and its direct impact on international markets. The discussion centers on the dangers of current geopolitical narratives, arguing that state-sponsored propaganda is not only misinforming the public but actively contributing to the loss of life and the destabilization of foreign regimes. The host warns that we are witnessing the unwinding of globalization, as nations are forced to become increasingly insulated in the face of economic uncertainty. A significant portion of the conversation addresses the impending economic tsunami, driven by the ongoing closure of critical trade routes and the potential for a global recession or depression. The host highlights how current debt-based monetary systems are nearing a breaking point, drawing historical parallels to the decline of the British Empire. Furthermore, the episode analyzes the structural weaknesses of the U.S. dollar and the unsustainable nature of current fiscal policies. The host concludes by stressing the importance of preparing for a volatile environment, advising that while governments face mounting instability, individuals must prioritize asset security and self-reliance to navigate the coming economic challenges.
Iran War Week 4: Build Back Better | The Next Phase of the Global Reset | SimonDixonHardTalk LIVE
In this episode of Bitcoin Hard Talk, Simon Dixon analyzes the fourth week of the Iran conflict, framing it as the Build Back Better phase of a broader global reset. Dixon reflects on his previous forecasts, suggesting that the conflict is not an unpredictable descent into World War III, but rather a theatrical and coordinated transition toward a new multipolar world order. Dixon details the ongoing negotiations between the United States and Iran, highlighting a specific 15-point proposal that surfaced this week. He interprets this as a public negotiation phase, characteristic of a major M&A-style transaction, designed to establish regional stability through a shift from the U.S. military’s forever-war model to a framework led by the financial-industrial complex. The discussion covers the significance of the Strait of Hormuz remaining closed, its impact on global oil prices, and how these factors contribute to the ongoing economic reset. Dixon argues that both sides are moving toward a predetermined resolution that involves sanction relief for Iran, the integration of proxy militias, and a transition toward regional economic cooperation. He advises listeners to prepare for the long-term implications of these systemic shifts on global markets and personal wealth.
