      Oh shoot, my info is out of date!

      Thank you for the correction =)

      Edit:

      Potential downside: All of the lithium in Argentina goes into battery banks for bitcoin mining operations.

      Their inflation rate is now around 300%, great job President AnCap.

        Maybe you confused it with rare earths? China dominated that market.

        But reserves don’t matter that much for market domination. Actual production and how much you control production of other countries does.

      Australia has the second-largest lithium reserves in the world with 5.7 million tons.

      That’s probably the more important part.
