Methodology Raoul Pal's warning against using leverage, citing a potential 50% drawdown and loss of stake as seen in October 2025, is strongly supported by market events. In October 2025, the crypto market experienced its largest liquidation event in history, with over $19 billion in leveraged positions wiped out within 24 hours. While Bitcoin saw an intraday drop of about 15% from its early October highs, many altcoins suffered drawdowns of 50-90%. This event, triggered by macroeconomic factors, clearly demonstrated the severe risks of leverage, leading to significant losses for many traders, thus validating Pal's warning.

AI Will Run Economy

"Within 2 years, the majority of economic transactions on Earth will be invisible to humans. They're not hidden or secret, they just operating at machine speed a scale and resolution that exists entirely beyond human perception. That couldn't happen in the old system, but it can in the new system. And the new system is built for this. It's a dark economy and we will only be about 5% of it. "

Within 2 years, most economic transactions will be invisible to humans, operating at machine speed beyond human perception in a new system that will be a "dark economy."

Invisible AI Agentic Economy

"And we're going to suck in all of the information. Everything, every single piece of information that can possibly be digitized will get digitized and used to train AGI to turn into ASI. That's every piece of scientific data, every single thing from any university, any single piece of information. All of this is going to be an agentic economy that's invisible to us. There will be well, we're already seeing it, right? API calls MCPs right? This is the start of the invisible agentic economy where the marketplace and what I'm trying to get to to your point, the biggest marketplace on Earth is not going to be the assets and stuff that humans have. It's the It's the data that the AI needs and we don't see any of it. "

All digitizable information will be used to train AGI and ASI, creating an invisible agentic economy where AI data will be the largest marketplace.

AI Super Capital Cycle

"And what I get to is there is almost no way for this not to be a super cycle. Mhm. And even the bottlenecks just slow it down, but it has to keep expend. So what is a bottleneck? It actually needs more expenditure. You need to build out the power stuff. You need to build out whatever it is. And so what you've got is the largest capex cycle I think humanity will ever see at this rate. Well, maybe there's another one to space later, but right now is this. "

The author believes that the development of artificial intelligence (AI) will lead to the largest capital expenditure cycle in human history, despite existing bottlenecks.
