Venezuela’s Petro Collapse: The Sanctions Evasion Blueprint Supercharging XRP, HBAR & Ethereum

Venezuela’s Petro is dead – but its failure revealed how sanctioned regimes can weaponize private cryptocurrencies to survive. In this deep dive, we connect the dots between the Petro collapse, Venezuela’s pivot to USDT, and the massive opportunity this creates for XRP, HBAR, and Ethereum.

We cover:

• How the Petro really failed

• Why PDVSA is now selling oil using crypto

• The “Axis of Evasion” strategy for Russia, Iran, and others

• XRP for fast cross-border settlement

• HBAR for transparent, trusted ledgers

• Ethereum and DeFi as censorship-resistant lifelines

This is crypto as statecraft – and it could reshape the global financial system.
