What If Henry VIII Engineered History’s Biggest Crypto Scam?

Описание: We all know King Henry VIII as the infamous tyrant who chopped off his wives' heads. But if you look at the historical ledgers, his absolute worst crime wasn't murder. It was Grand Larceny.

The Scam:

📉 The Liquidity Crisis: How Henry blew a billion-dollar inheritance on vanity palaces and pointless wars, leaving the country completely bankrupt.
💰 The Great Debasement: The terrifying moment the King decided to melt down the nation's pure silver and mix it with cheap, rusty copper.
🍞 The Hyperinflation: Why this 16th-century "Crypto Rug Pull" caused the price of bread to triple, starving the working class while the King partied.
👃 Old Coppernose: How a simple chemical reaction exposed the King’s fraud, leading the entire country to relentlessly mock his metallic, red nose on the new coins.

The Verdict:
Before there was Sam Bankman-Fried or The Tinder Swindler, there was Henry VIII. He didn't just steal from his people; he fundamentally broke the economy.
