I hope you’re sitting down, because what I’m about to tell you will change the way you think about money forever.
My good friend Chris Campbell over at Altucher Confidential just published a mind-blowing article titled “Money: Energy’s Fake Plastic Nose“. In it, he reveals the shocking truth about the future of money that they don’t want you to know.
According to Chris, quoting the visionary Sam Altman of OpenAI:
“The next big leap isn’t JUST going to be some new form of digital cash… It’s going to be compute power itself.”
Sam Altman
That’s right, in the near future, compute power could become the new global currency, with the potential to upend our entire financial system. Can you imagine a world where your wealth is measured not in dollars, but in petaflops? Where the key to prosperity is not striking gold, but unlocking the secrets of quantum computing?
But it gets even wilder. Chris also digs into the fascinating history of energy-based currencies, championed by luminaries like Buckminster Fuller and Henry Ford. They argued that money, at its core, is just a proxy for energy. As Chris explains:
“Currency, in other words, is energy in disguise – money is energy with a fake plastic nose.”

Mind. Blown. 🤯
Now, I know what you’re thinking: “This all sounds great in theory, but what does it mean for me and my money?” Well, buckle up, because here’s where it gets really exciting…
In a world where compute power and energy are the new gold standards, anyone who can produce them efficiently can essentially “mint” their own money. That’s right, your backyard solar panels and garage-built AI rig could be your ticket to financial freedom.
But here’s the catch: the powers that be, the central banks and military-industrial complex, they don’t want you to know this. They thrive on the abstractions and distortions of our current system. An energy-based currency would, as Chris puts it, “free us from their machinations.”
So here’s what you need to do:
- Educate yourself. Read Chris’s full article, dig deeper into the ideas of Fuller and Ford, and stay tuned to Market Monitors for more cutting-edge analysis.
- Invest in the future. Look for opportunities to get in on the ground floor of the compute and energy revolutions. We’ll be keeping a close eye on the most promising players in these spaces.
- Stay vigilant. The road ahead won’t be easy. Those in power will fight tooth and nail to maintain the status quo. But together, armed with knowledge and foresight, we can be on the right side of history.
The future of money is coming, whether we’re ready or not. Will you be left behind, clutching your worthless paper rectangles? Or will you be at the vanguard, surfing the wave of change to a brighter, more equitable future?
The choice is yours. But as always, you can count on us at Market Monitors to be your trusted guide through the turbulent waters ahead.
Stay sharp,
