According to the latest news, the U.S. government has announced an oil trading agreement with the interim government of Venezuela. Under this agreement, Venezuela will supply 30 million to 50 million barrels of high-quality crude oil to the United States, which was previously restricted by international sanctions.

What is the operational model of this deal? All oil will be sold at international market prices, and the proceeds will be directly overseen by U.S. government agencies to ensure transparency in the use of funds and benefit both nations' peoples. The energy department has received instructions to execute the plan, which involves transporting the crude oil directly to U.S. unloading terminals via a fleet of storage tankers, with specific operations expected to commence soon.

This move could trigger a chain reaction in the global energy market. An increase in oil supply may influence crude oil price trends, thereby affecting commodity futures and related asset investment expectations. Market participants should closely monitor subsequent developments and changes in the international energy landscape.

Wait, can Venezuela really afford it? Something feels off --- It's the US government "direct regulation" again, just hear it out and forget it --- Oil prices are going to fall? Is my contract going to explode? --- Such a big move, there must be a story behind it --- Transparent? Ha, I just smile and say nothing

Another geopolitical game, are oil prices about to plummet?

Coming back with this again? Government departments' "direct regulation" and "ensuring transparency"... just listen and don't take it seriously. There are definitely capital behind the scenes cutting the leeks. Crude oil prices are volatile, and those futures folks have long been lying in wait.

It should be pointed out that the transparency narrative of this news itself is a paradox—direct regulation of fund flows by the US government, in essence, is still a guise for centralized power. According to the white paper philosophy, true value transfer should not rely on third-party trust mechanisms. Obviously, this geopolitical reorganization on the oil supply side essentially reflects the power struggle within the fiat currency system. The fluctuations in energy commodities are just a surface phenomenon; at a deeper level, it is a redistribution of dollar hegemony... Think about it, why is the value exchange mechanism of blockchain completely ignored in such scenarios?

Oil supply increases, and the shorts are about to cry. But whether this can really be implemented is still uncertain; don't believe too much in the American way.
