The Financial War Behind the Iran Conflict (Simon Dixon on BTC Sessions)

BTC Sessions Interviews Simon Dixon In part two I’ll be airing my recent interview on BTC Sessions, where we go deeper into the forces shaping this conflict. The argument I make is controversial: This may not be a traditional war between nation states. It may be a struggle between three competing power structures shaping the next global system. We cover: • The Financial Industrial Complex vs the Military Industrial Complex • The “Proof of Weapons Network” behind the current monetary system • Why nation-states may be less powerful than transnational capital networks • How Gulf sovereign wealth funds, China, and Wall Street influence global power • Why stabilizing West Asia may unlock trillions in AI and infrastructure investment We also discuss: • China’s 1.2 billion barrel strategic oil reserve • Why a multipolar financial order may emerge from this conflict • Why Bitcoin may ultimately be the only neutral settlement layer outside the system This episode isn’t just about missiles and headlines. It’s about the architecture of power behind the war.
