Node-Level Extraction
Idea
The observation that any player that gets powerful enough runs the same playbook: turn what it holds into financial products, loosen the rules governing itself, inflate the value, and extract. The claim is that the pattern repeats regardless of who the player is — the faces change, the shape doesn't — and that the system cannot regulate its own most powerful members.
The engine's definition — word for word
Every node that reaches sufficient power runs the same playbook: financialize, deregulate the thing you hold, pump, extract. The pattern is system-invariant — Goldman, IRGC, Big Three, Trump crypto. The faces change; the topology is identical. BST: the system cannot regulate its own apex nodes.
