Each piece makes all other pieces more powerful! It’s really a masterclass in the Art of the Deal. It’s not just the money. It's the power! It’s attention through the memecoin and Tiktok, political power with the inauguration and US presidency, and money through the tech CEO alignment. It’s all perfectly situated and absolutely explosive at the present moment, and that’s a machine that is extraordinarily valuable. Political Position ➝ Market Threats ➝ Token Value ➝ More Control ➝ Repeat. Political Position Creates Leverage: If you can threaten to ban platforms (or people or enact sweeping tariffs, you have immediate leverage. If you do it through executive orders and ignore checks and balances, there is no traditional regulatory process needed. The threats alone move markets and create opportunities through immediate power projection. Threats Create Market Opportunity: The markets are going to be very reactive to any political signals, and any sort of threat becomes a negotiation tool. All sorts of opportunities come from that. Market Moves Amplify Token Power: You could argue that political action could drive Trumpcoin price, and a higher token price could mean more political influence and bigger political moves, because money is very much power. Token Wealth Enables More Control: You could use Trumpcoin money to buy 50% of TikTok and use that platform to capture more attention, driving Trumpcoin price even higher (who knows if this will happen, but anything is in the realm of possibility). Infrastructure control expands. The power base solidifies. The attention distribution, the narrative shaping, the reality perception are all tremendously powerful.

This moment in time is quite unique because of: The speed at which wealth was created (36 hours to $70b+) The scale (if it goes to $2,100 a share it will surpass the value of bitcoin) The source (direct political influence conversion!) The integration (platform threats + token launch + power) This is compound power, not just compound interest, and I think all of this happening at the same time as the TikTok ban is important.

The basic formula is attention → improvement → value → compound. Trumpcoin doesn’t bother with those middle steps. Its process is simple: Capture attention. Convert directly into token value. The attention is the product. The narrative is the value.

This is the birth of the Attention Singularity, where power, narrative, and wealth merge into one self-reinforcing system. Think of the Attention Singularity like a black hole, but instead of gravity, it's attention that becomes so powerful it warps reality itself. We're watching the birth of a system where attention directly creates wealth (like $60B from Trumpcoin in 36 hours), wealth instantly enables power (potential TikTok acquisition), power captures more attention (platform control), and each cycle gets faster and stronger than the last.

Traditional limits like physical constraints, geographic boundaries, or institutional checks stop mattering because digital attention moves instantly and globally, while narrative overpowers physical reality. Once this feedback loop starts, it's self-reinforcing: attention creates wealth, wealth enables power, power shapes perceived reality, and reality drives more attention.

Real production could become secondary to narrative production - why bother with things like cash flow when all economic activity can simply be attention harvesting?

The more we treat things with no economic output as valuable, the less we'll actually produce.

Attention Harvesters: Create wealth through narrative and accumulate power rapidly wth minimal physical constraints Real World Maintainers: The people who keep society functioning and deal with physical constraints. These people essential but undervalued.

As more capital and talent flow to attention-based ventures, essential infrastructure could become neglected and society could become more fragile. I am in LA with these fires, and my goodness, we need people who can be in the real world and fix burned down homes and maintain infrastructure and nurse communities back to health.

For investors: Memecoins like Trumpcoin show the growing dominance of speculative assets. If you’re an investor, this signals a shift: attention is now a measurable driver of market value. You should probably have a memecoin strategy, if that’s of interest. Position yourself accordingly. For consumers: The rise of platforms and tokens driven by narrative suggests that your attention is more valuable than ever. Be mindful of how you spend it as every click and view reinforces this economy
