00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.560
<v Speaker 1>A tradified giant that defeated Gary Ginster in the past.

2
00:00:03.640 --> 00:00:07.599
<v Speaker 1>At the CFDC is back criticizing Gangster and the SEC

3
00:00:07.799 --> 00:00:10.560
<v Speaker 1>and how they're handling crypto. I'll share the details with you.

4
00:00:10.880 --> 00:00:14.759
<v Speaker 1>And bitcoin minors are entering the election spending money supporting

5
00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:19.559
<v Speaker 1>pro crypto candidates and Vitallic Booterin and Michael Saylor are

6
00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:29.000
<v Speaker 1>beefing over crypto self custody. Let's get into it. Hey, everybody,

<v Speaker 1>please leave a five star rating and review. Okay, folks,

13
00:00:46.799 --> 00:00:49.640
<v Speaker 1>let's start by taking a look at the DXY and bitcoin.

14
00:00:49.759 --> 00:00:54.240
<v Speaker 1>Because the DXY, even though it's overbought by the textbook

15
00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:58.479
<v Speaker 1>the RSSI, it is still pumping. So we're waiting for

16
00:00:58.560 --> 00:01:01.560
<v Speaker 1>that breakdown. Guys, but we know that by the textbook,

17
00:01:01.560 --> 00:01:05.040
<v Speaker 1>once again, this is not sustainable. It is incredibly overbought

18
00:01:05.079 --> 00:01:07.439
<v Speaker 1>here and it's going to top out very soon. But

19
00:01:07.640 --> 00:01:10.000
<v Speaker 1>in the meantime, it means Bitcoin's not going to do

20
00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:12.640
<v Speaker 1>much and Bitcoin's going to do the opposite. So right

21
00:01:12.640 --> 00:01:15.400
<v Speaker 1>now Bitcoin is showing some red candles on the daily chart,

22
00:01:16.040 --> 00:01:19.439
<v Speaker 1>trading above sixty six thousand dollars, So we have to wait.

23
00:01:19.519 --> 00:01:22.760
<v Speaker 1>But guys, this is where patience is needed. Right We

24
00:01:22.799 --> 00:01:24.879
<v Speaker 1>want Bitcoin to break out and start moving up, but

25
00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:28.159
<v Speaker 1>unfortunately the factors that are conducive to that are not

26
00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:31.439
<v Speaker 1>there one hundred percent as yet, so we got to

27
00:01:31.480 --> 00:01:33.319
<v Speaker 1>wait for this DXY to break down. But you just

28
00:01:33.359 --> 00:01:36.879
<v Speaker 1>look historically once again that RSI it will start to

29
00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:39.879
<v Speaker 1>break down soon enough, and maybe that's within another week

30
00:01:39.959 --> 00:01:42.640
<v Speaker 1>or so, and maybe this ties in with the election

31
00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:46.879
<v Speaker 1>uncertainty being removed. Where the elections complete, we know who

32
00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:50.359
<v Speaker 1>the president is and then markets will start to rip

33
00:01:50.439 --> 00:01:54.280
<v Speaker 1>based on how they performed historically. But guys, it's I

34
00:01:54.319 --> 00:01:56.879
<v Speaker 1>know it's painful, I know it's boring, but this is

35
00:01:56.959 --> 00:01:59.400
<v Speaker 1>what we are dealing with and this is part of investing.

36
00:01:59.480 --> 00:02:01.799
<v Speaker 1>So we're not using our feelings and our emotions, but

37
00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:03.959
<v Speaker 1>we're looking at the data and the data is telling

38
00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:06.560
<v Speaker 1>us right now the DXY is not going down without

39
00:02:06.599 --> 00:02:09.400
<v Speaker 1>a fight, so be patient. Now here's some interesting news,

40
00:02:09.439 --> 00:02:12.560
<v Speaker 1>Tesla reveals none of there. Over seven hundred and sixty

41
00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:15.639
<v Speaker 1>three million dollars in bitcoin was sold in Q three,

42
00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:18.919
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty four. Now, what's fascinating. Just about a week

43
00:02:18.960 --> 00:02:21.879
<v Speaker 1>and a half ago, Tesla started moving around their bitcoin.

44
00:02:21.919 --> 00:02:25.080
<v Speaker 1>People were tracking this with on train metrics and they

45
00:02:25.120 --> 00:02:29.840
<v Speaker 1>moved the bitcoin to new wallets. So people were speculating

46
00:02:29.879 --> 00:02:32.680
<v Speaker 1>that maybe Elon's going to do something with cancer Fitzgerald

47
00:02:32.759 --> 00:02:36.159
<v Speaker 1>with bitcoin yield, but it's TBD. But it's good to

48
00:02:36.159 --> 00:02:39.599
<v Speaker 1>see that they haven't sold any more bitcoin now. They

49
00:02:39.639 --> 00:02:41.960
<v Speaker 1>have in the past, and I explain that to you guys.

50
00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:44.360
<v Speaker 1>When liquidity was tight and rates were on the way up,

51
00:02:44.439 --> 00:02:47.159
<v Speaker 1>Tesla sold some of that bitcoin they had in the

52
00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:50.960
<v Speaker 1>past to get liquidity, which I understand from a business standpoint,

53
00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:53.479
<v Speaker 1>but good to see that they're still holding a large amount.

54
00:02:53.639 --> 00:02:56.560
<v Speaker 1>Now here's some very interesting news and it revolves around

55
00:02:56.560 --> 00:03:00.680
<v Speaker 1>scumbag regulator Gary Genser. So Trading giant Don Wilson thinks

56
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:04.319
<v Speaker 1>the SEC chair Gary Ginster's refusal to set crypto rules

57
00:03:04.479 --> 00:03:08.599
<v Speaker 1>is purposeful. You're seeing the writing on the wall here.

58
00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:11.879
<v Speaker 1>Everybody's recognizing what's happening, and it's what we've been talking

59
00:03:11.879 --> 00:03:15.039
<v Speaker 1>about on this podcast for years now, since the Ripple lawsuit,

60
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:18.479
<v Speaker 1>that Genser is just doing the bidding of the tradify

61
00:03:18.560 --> 00:03:22.599
<v Speaker 1>incumbans who are getting disrupted by blockchain and tokens and crypto,

62
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:25.719
<v Speaker 1>and his goal is not to protect crypto investors, but

63
00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:29.280
<v Speaker 1>rather kill these crypto startups, not kill crypto and blockchain now,

64
00:03:29.360 --> 00:03:32.400
<v Speaker 1>because as I've stated before, two things are happening in parallel.

65
00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:36.560
<v Speaker 1>While the crypto industry and startups are getting walls, notices, lawsuits,

66
00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:39.039
<v Speaker 1>and much more, black Rock and all the wall streets

67
00:03:39.039 --> 00:03:43.080
<v Speaker 1>here tokenizing, launching ETFs around the acid class and doing

68
00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:45.599
<v Speaker 1>much more. So how can these two things be happening

69
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:49.400
<v Speaker 1>side by side. It's because Genser has been weaponized against

70
00:03:49.400 --> 00:03:52.560
<v Speaker 1>the startups. How dare coinbas come and make more revenue

71
00:03:52.639 --> 00:03:55.000
<v Speaker 1>than Goldman, Sachs and some of these other companies, right?

72
00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:59.319
<v Speaker 1>That is essentially what's happening. So here's a quote from Don.

73
00:03:59.360 --> 00:04:04.360
<v Speaker 1>He says it reminds me of Atlas Shrugged. Wilson tells Coindesk,

74
00:04:04.520 --> 00:04:08.919
<v Speaker 1>they get to selectively harass whoever they want. Now, Don

75
00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:11.560
<v Speaker 1>defeated the SEC and let me give you the details

76
00:04:11.560 --> 00:04:15.439
<v Speaker 1>around that. So Don Wilson is feeling deja vu. This month,

77
00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:20.079
<v Speaker 1>the US SEC sued Cumberland DRW, a division of DRW,

78
00:04:20.439 --> 00:04:25.240
<v Speaker 1>the Chicago based trading giant Wilson founded and runs. The markets.

79
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:28.839
<v Speaker 1>Regulator accused the company of trading at least two billion

80
00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:34.079
<v Speaker 1>dollars of cryptocurrencies, including Solona and Polygons Mattic without first

81
00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:37.519
<v Speaker 1>getting permission. The case hinges on the SEC deeming those

82
00:04:37.600 --> 00:04:41.560
<v Speaker 1>assets as securities, a designation that imposes all sorts of

83
00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:46.279
<v Speaker 1>requirements on traders like DRW. It's not drw's first tangle

84
00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:49.519
<v Speaker 1>with the regulator. In fact, it's not even drw's first

85
00:04:49.600 --> 00:04:53.279
<v Speaker 1>tangle with Gary Ginster, the SEC chairman. Back in twenty thirteen,

86
00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:57.439
<v Speaker 1>when Ganser ran the USCFDC, the agency filed a lawsuit

87
00:04:57.480 --> 00:05:01.480
<v Speaker 1>against DRW and Wilson himself, claiming that they manipulated the

88
00:05:01.600 --> 00:05:05.079
<v Speaker 1>market for an obscure interest rate swamp. Wilson and his

89
00:05:05.160 --> 00:05:09.720
<v Speaker 1>firm denied any wrongdoing they had, They argued, simply discovered

90
00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:14.920
<v Speaker 1>a lucrative arbitrage opportunity their competitors overlooked. They fought the

91
00:05:14.959 --> 00:05:19.279
<v Speaker 1>CFDC and won big time. The judge indicates District Judge

92
00:05:19.399 --> 00:05:22.279
<v Speaker 1>Richard Sullivan of the Southern District of New York Now,

93
00:05:22.279 --> 00:05:24.720
<v Speaker 1>a judge in the US Court of Appeals for the

94
00:05:24.759 --> 00:05:29.040
<v Speaker 1>Second Circuit, emphatically sided with Wilson after a four day

95
00:05:29.079 --> 00:05:33.199
<v Speaker 1>bench trial, slapping down the CFDC sooth. In a scathing

96
00:05:33.279 --> 00:05:37.959
<v Speaker 1>twenty eighteen dismissal, he called the cfdc's arguments absurd. Wilson

97
00:05:38.000 --> 00:05:42.040
<v Speaker 1>recalls that ruling fondly. So gains, There's always been a

98
00:05:42.079 --> 00:05:45.240
<v Speaker 1>scumbag for the most part. For if you know your history.

99
00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:49.720
<v Speaker 1>Even back in twenty thirteen, the US CFDC watchdog had

100
00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:54.639
<v Speaker 1>faulted Gary Genser for his recusal from the mf Global probe.

101
00:05:54.680 --> 00:05:56.720
<v Speaker 1>Go read up on that, so gains. There's a Wall

102
00:05:56.720 --> 00:06:00.120
<v Speaker 1>Street rat running through these government agencies, and that's the

103
00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:03.040
<v Speaker 1>problem with the revolving door. And now he's here doing

104
00:06:03.079 --> 00:06:06.279
<v Speaker 1>scumbag activities in the crypto industry. He seems to be

105
00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:10.439
<v Speaker 1>a chaos agent against anything that's new, and that's disrupting

106
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:13.839
<v Speaker 1>the status quo for the stratify incumbents. But we've been

107
00:06:13.879 --> 00:06:16.959
<v Speaker 1>talking about this for years, guys, and look the elections

108
00:06:17.040 --> 00:06:19.920
<v Speaker 1>right around the corner. We know Donald Trump would fire

109
00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:24.240
<v Speaker 1>against her for sure. We are not sure about Kamala Harris,

110
00:06:24.279 --> 00:06:27.399
<v Speaker 1>even though her team has said they're not happy with Gainser,

111
00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:30.439
<v Speaker 1>but I'm assuming they will kick him out because he's

112
00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:33.279
<v Speaker 1>just bad for politics and has been really bad overall.

113
00:06:33.759 --> 00:06:37.279
<v Speaker 1>So we'll see what happens. But it's great that these

114
00:06:37.319 --> 00:06:40.560
<v Speaker 1>people who defeated the SEC are coming out and calling

115
00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:46.199
<v Speaker 1>out the SEC's unlawful and unfear attack against the crypto industry.

116
00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:48.639
<v Speaker 1>And Mark Cuban is one as well. He defeated the

117
00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:50.759
<v Speaker 1>SEC in the past and he's calling out against her

118
00:06:50.920 --> 00:06:53.160
<v Speaker 1>in addition to a bunch of other people now. One

119
00:06:53.199 --> 00:06:56.879
<v Speaker 1>way gainst her will also be disarmed in addition to

120
00:06:56.920 --> 00:07:00.560
<v Speaker 1>being fired is that Senator Elizabeth Warren is the one

121
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:02.920
<v Speaker 1>who has empowered against her and put him into office.

122
00:07:02.959 --> 00:07:05.399
<v Speaker 1>She's the one that sends him the questions and answers

123
00:07:05.480 --> 00:07:08.920
<v Speaker 1>ahead of hearings and much more. And John Deeton is

124
00:07:09.000 --> 00:07:11.439
<v Speaker 1>running against her. We're big fans of John Deaton, and

125
00:07:11.480 --> 00:07:14.000
<v Speaker 1>if you're in a state of Massachusetts, vote for John.

126
00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:16.920
<v Speaker 1>If you're outside the state, donate to John. And Ripple

127
00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:20.759
<v Speaker 1>CEO Brad Garlandhouse came out public lyo on Twitter endorsing John,

128
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:23.879
<v Speaker 1>saying John Deaton has been a relentless advocate for the

129
00:07:24.040 --> 00:07:27.360
<v Speaker 1>x RP Army and the entire crypto industry. Meanwhile, his opponent,

130
00:07:27.439 --> 00:07:31.519
<v Speaker 1>Senator Warren, spreads misinformation and lies about crypto. I endorse

131
00:07:31.639 --> 00:07:35.800
<v Speaker 1>John enthusiastically and wholeheartedly in his run for Senate. For

132
00:07:35.839 --> 00:07:37.680
<v Speaker 1>those of you in a position to do so, I

133
00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:40.240
<v Speaker 1>encourage you to donate to his campaign as I have.

134
00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:43.759
<v Speaker 1>Whether it's ten dollars or one hundred dollars, it all count.

135
00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:47.240
<v Speaker 1>And most importantly, vote for him if you're in Massachusetts.

136
00:07:47.240 --> 00:07:50.439
<v Speaker 1>So this is great. And he said he predicts a

137
00:07:50.519 --> 00:07:53.480
<v Speaker 1>reset after the US election, and he criticizes the Biden

138
00:07:53.560 --> 00:07:56.879
<v Speaker 1>administration and their handling of all this. Now, one of

139
00:07:56.920 --> 00:07:58.480
<v Speaker 1>the things we've been talking about for a while is

140
00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:01.000
<v Speaker 1>crypto's spending in this election cycle, and those people who

141
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:05.600
<v Speaker 1>are anti crypto are getting destroyed in the polls and

142
00:08:05.639 --> 00:08:09.000
<v Speaker 1>the elections, and the ads are running against them. Well,

143
00:08:09.000 --> 00:08:11.360
<v Speaker 1>look at this. Bitcoin miners are entering the battle here.

144
00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:14.439
<v Speaker 1>So bitcoin miners launch ad campaign in swing states to

145
00:08:14.560 --> 00:08:18.800
<v Speaker 1>boost crypto friendly candidates. Bitcoin voter Pack is backed by

146
00:08:18.920 --> 00:08:22.800
<v Speaker 1>three of the biggest bitcoin mining companies. So before it

147
00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:25.399
<v Speaker 1>was coin based Ripple A sixteen Z and some other

148
00:08:25.399 --> 00:08:28.759
<v Speaker 1>folks who are part of the fair Shake superpack, raising

149
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:32.279
<v Speaker 1>over two hundred million dollars. Now you've got bitcoin miners

150
00:08:32.399 --> 00:08:35.879
<v Speaker 1>launching their own pack and going after the people who

151
00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:39.120
<v Speaker 1>are anti crypto and supporting the people who are crypto friendly.

152
00:08:39.240 --> 00:08:42.519
<v Speaker 1>So it's amazing what's happening. If you told me about

153
00:08:42.559 --> 00:08:44.600
<v Speaker 1>this in twenty twenty three, I wouldn't have believed you.

154
00:08:45.519 --> 00:08:49.759
<v Speaker 1>But I think the crypto industry finally woke up realizing

155
00:08:49.799 --> 00:08:53.240
<v Speaker 1>they're dealing with a scumbag regulator and Elizabeth Warren who

156
00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:55.840
<v Speaker 1>formed her anti crypto army, and the only way to

157
00:08:55.879 --> 00:08:58.000
<v Speaker 1>fight back is to take the gloves off and punch

158
00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:01.960
<v Speaker 1>back at the bully right, play nice, because we've seen

159
00:09:02.039 --> 00:09:05.840
<v Speaker 1>they will take unlawful steps to try to shut down

160
00:09:05.879 --> 00:09:08.559
<v Speaker 1>this industry and much more so that their trad five

161
00:09:08.840 --> 00:09:11.759
<v Speaker 1>banking buddies can come in and take over. But the

162
00:09:11.919 --> 00:09:14.200
<v Speaker 1>industry is not going to let that happen. And we

163
00:09:14.360 --> 00:09:16.840
<v Speaker 1>are on the winning side of history against and Elizabeth

164
00:09:16.879 --> 00:09:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Warren are two fools. We will be left on an

165
00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:22.840
<v Speaker 1>island by themselves because we see a lot of the

166
00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:25.840
<v Speaker 1>anti crypto army folks are dropping like flies in the election,

167
00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:28.120
<v Speaker 1>and many of them are backing out of bills they

168
00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:32.000
<v Speaker 1>were supporting and co sponsoring. With Elizabeth Warren Roger Marshall

169
00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:34.279
<v Speaker 1>being one of them, and I forgot the other guy's name,

170
00:09:34.320 --> 00:09:36.600
<v Speaker 1>but it was a recent item where he backed out

171
00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:41.440
<v Speaker 1>of a bill too or took crypto out. So it's great,

172
00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:45.000
<v Speaker 1>guys were winning. And be patient because this will all

173
00:09:45.039 --> 00:09:49.200
<v Speaker 1>culminate to a more pro crypto friendly United States where

174
00:09:49.320 --> 00:09:52.480
<v Speaker 1>clear legislation will be passed and that will unlock a

175
00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:55.600
<v Speaker 1>lot more capital and adoption, which will boost the prices

176
00:09:56.039 --> 00:09:59.600
<v Speaker 1>of the assets that you hold. And in addition to

177
00:09:59.639 --> 00:10:02.240
<v Speaker 1>macro factors, right the money printing that's going to continue

178
00:10:02.240 --> 00:10:05.080
<v Speaker 1>global liquidity and so forth. But you have these different

179
00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:09.240
<v Speaker 1>factors which will all be very bullish for the crypto market. Now, guys,

180
00:10:09.360 --> 00:10:12.519
<v Speaker 1>quick word from our sponsor, and that is Constellation Network.

181
00:10:12.559 --> 00:10:16.159
<v Speaker 1>Many of you may recognize this blockchain project. Their native

182
00:10:16.200 --> 00:10:22.240
<v Speaker 1>token is dagdag. Earlier this year I had interviewed Benjamin Diggles,

183
00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:25.120
<v Speaker 1>who's the co founder of the Constellation Network. They are

184
00:10:25.159 --> 00:10:27.720
<v Speaker 1>building a really cool project and you know they're working

185
00:10:27.720 --> 00:10:31.240
<v Speaker 1>with the US Air Force in testing blockchain and using

186
00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:33.679
<v Speaker 1>it in different ways. Well, folks, they have a great

187
00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:37.279
<v Speaker 1>conference that is tomorrow. It's called the High Depth Conference

<v Speaker 1>like I said, they're working with the Air Force and

210
00:11:50.080 --> 00:11:53.440
<v Speaker 1>the US government on quite a few projects. And I

211
00:11:53.480 --> 00:11:55.919
<v Speaker 1>will have one of the co founders on next week

212
00:11:55.960 --> 00:11:57.960
<v Speaker 1>for an interview as well, so I'll try to get

213
00:11:58.000 --> 00:12:01.200
<v Speaker 1>you guys as much information as possible. So check out

214
00:12:01.200 --> 00:12:03.679
<v Speaker 1>the link in and description and I will definitely do

215
00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:06.879
<v Speaker 1>some takeaways from it in tomorrow's podcasts as well. All right, guys,

216
00:12:06.879 --> 00:12:09.039
<v Speaker 1>we've got some big news, and it's actually good news.

217
00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:13.399
<v Speaker 1>I remember that Binance employee who's being held in Nigeria

218
00:12:14.080 --> 00:12:18.799
<v Speaker 1>due to money laundering charges, Well he's finally free. Binance's

219
00:12:18.960 --> 00:12:22.519
<v Speaker 1>Gumbar Yon is free to leave Nigeria for medical treatment

220
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:25.960
<v Speaker 1>after money laundering charges dropped. And you know, one of

221
00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:28.600
<v Speaker 1>the things I had talked about when this news broke

222
00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:32.200
<v Speaker 1>months ago was that Nigerian government was kind of like

223
00:12:32.320 --> 00:12:35.639
<v Speaker 1>holding him hostage so they could try to squeeze Binance

224
00:12:35.679 --> 00:12:37.840
<v Speaker 1>for some money. And you know, they saw the Binance

225
00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:41.000
<v Speaker 1>settlement in the United States for four billion dollars, so

226
00:12:41.039 --> 00:12:44.960
<v Speaker 1>they're probably like, man, we want some of that money, right, So,

227
00:12:45.240 --> 00:12:50.120
<v Speaker 1>but they were unlawfully holding this guy clearly bs charges

228
00:12:50.279 --> 00:12:53.639
<v Speaker 1>and he was not doing very well health wise. It

229
00:12:53.679 --> 00:12:56.000
<v Speaker 1>shows the extent some of these governments will do to

230
00:12:56.000 --> 00:12:59.799
<v Speaker 1>get money. Nigeria's government has withdrawn the money laundering charges

231
00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:06.559
<v Speaker 1>Finance Executive Tigrand Gambar Yon days Tigran Gambar jan I

232
00:13:06.600 --> 00:13:08.679
<v Speaker 1>hope I said his name right days after a cord

233
00:13:08.759 --> 00:13:12.399
<v Speaker 1>denied him bail. Local news outlet Punch reported on Tuesday.

234
00:13:12.559 --> 00:13:15.039
<v Speaker 1>So this is good news that he's finally oud because

235
00:13:15.639 --> 00:13:21.120
<v Speaker 1>his medical condition was deteriorating. It's pretty bad moving ahead, guys,

236
00:13:21.279 --> 00:13:24.879
<v Speaker 1>uniswaps permission less bridging goes live across nine networks. So

237
00:13:25.080 --> 00:13:26.679
<v Speaker 1>UNSWAP for those of you who don't know, is a

238
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:30.679
<v Speaker 1>decentralized exchange and the biggest out there, and the SEC

239
00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:32.840
<v Speaker 1>is actually going after them, sent them a walls notice

240
00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:36.720
<v Speaker 1>and so forth, but powered by across protocol. Permission less

241
00:13:36.720 --> 00:13:39.960
<v Speaker 1>bridging via the UNISWAP interface or wallet is now live

242
00:13:40.000 --> 00:13:43.360
<v Speaker 1>across nine networks. Initially, bridging is possible with the theorem

243
00:13:43.399 --> 00:13:47.600
<v Speaker 1>based arbitrump polygon opi Mayet, Zora Blast World Chain and

244
00:13:47.799 --> 00:13:52.720
<v Speaker 1>zk Sinc. So big update here around UNISWAP now Michael

245
00:13:52.759 --> 00:13:56.919
<v Speaker 1>Saylor and Vitalic Bouterin are beefing a bit, and it

246
00:13:57.000 --> 00:14:01.519
<v Speaker 1>comes as Vitalic criticized what Sailor had to say about

247
00:14:01.639 --> 00:14:06.000
<v Speaker 1>self custody. Fatallic Booterin said, Michael Sailor's recent comments regarding

248
00:14:06.120 --> 00:14:11.519
<v Speaker 1>regulated bitcoin custody concerns being mostly from paranoid crypto anarchists

249
00:14:11.840 --> 00:14:15.919
<v Speaker 1>were batshit insane. Sailor seemed to be explicitly arguing for

250
00:14:16.080 --> 00:14:21.000
<v Speaker 1>regulatory capture approach to crypto Booterin claimed, now the statements

251
00:14:21.120 --> 00:14:23.720
<v Speaker 1>essentially that Sailor made were kind of like anti self

252
00:14:23.720 --> 00:14:26.240
<v Speaker 1>custodes of Italic, who I think was right in calling

253
00:14:26.320 --> 00:14:31.399
<v Speaker 1>him out. However, Sailor this morning, seemingly backtracking or adding

254
00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:34.960
<v Speaker 1>clarity here, said I support self custody for those willing

255
00:14:35.000 --> 00:14:37.360
<v Speaker 1>and able, the right to self custody for all, and

256
00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:40.440
<v Speaker 1>freedom to choose the form of custody and custodian for

257
00:14:40.480 --> 00:14:44.440
<v Speaker 1>individuals and institutions. Globally, Bitcoin benefits from all forms of

258
00:14:44.480 --> 00:14:48.440
<v Speaker 1>investment by all types of entities and should welcome everyone. Now,

259
00:14:48.759 --> 00:14:51.440
<v Speaker 1>as always, guys, I keep things real with you all.

260
00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:54.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm not holding back anything, and I'll be as candid

261
00:14:54.679 --> 00:14:59.080
<v Speaker 1>as possible. I think Michael Sailor is just an opportunist

262
00:14:59.600 --> 00:15:03.279
<v Speaker 1>who he's using bitcoin to make money. Now, there's not

263
00:15:03.320 --> 00:15:07.039
<v Speaker 1>necessarily anything wrong with that. The point is, though he

264
00:15:07.200 --> 00:15:11.000
<v Speaker 1>uses a facade of Bitcoin is the best and this

265
00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:14.240
<v Speaker 1>and that, but when you see his actions and sometimes

266
00:15:14.240 --> 00:15:17.519
<v Speaker 1>some of his comments, it tells that it's just a

267
00:15:17.559 --> 00:15:21.279
<v Speaker 1>matter of boosting up micro strategy for him. He's not

268
00:15:21.480 --> 00:15:25.480
<v Speaker 1>like a true bitcoin believer, like the ethos of bitcoin

269
00:15:25.639 --> 00:15:29.879
<v Speaker 1>and hard money and Satoshi in the white paper and

270
00:15:29.960 --> 00:15:32.399
<v Speaker 1>so forth. He said those things in the past, but

271
00:15:32.440 --> 00:15:35.759
<v Speaker 1>you can see over time he's deviating from it, and

272
00:15:36.039 --> 00:15:38.200
<v Speaker 1>people are starting to call him out. Even some Bitcoin

273
00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:42.120
<v Speaker 1>Maxi's now are going up against Sailor. They don't trust

274
00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:46.799
<v Speaker 1>Sailor anymore. I saw Max Kaiser of all people tweet

275
00:15:46.840 --> 00:15:50.559
<v Speaker 1>about Sailor and his comments, criticizing him. But what they

276
00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:54.039
<v Speaker 1>don't realize is Sailor when he was telling you to

277
00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:56.960
<v Speaker 1>sell your house and get a mortgage and so forth,

278
00:15:57.159 --> 00:16:00.200
<v Speaker 1>just so you can buy bitcoin. When I saw, I

279
00:16:00.240 --> 00:16:02.919
<v Speaker 1>was like, man, that is bad. He's gonna get people wrecked.

280
00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:05.120
<v Speaker 1>A lot of Bitcoin Maxis were still supporting him and

281
00:16:05.159 --> 00:16:07.200
<v Speaker 1>so forth, but I started calling him out from there,

282
00:16:07.240 --> 00:16:09.960
<v Speaker 1>and I interviewed the guy you know, back in twenty twenty.

283
00:16:10.879 --> 00:16:12.679
<v Speaker 1>But you know, we got to keep it real. We

284
00:16:12.759 --> 00:16:15.559
<v Speaker 1>got to call it as it is, guys, not sugarcoated,

285
00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:18.240
<v Speaker 1>not try to cover up anything. I don't take him

286
00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:21.559
<v Speaker 1>as serious anymore because I see his agenda and I

287
00:16:21.639 --> 00:16:24.039
<v Speaker 1>recall I think it was earlier this year where he

288
00:16:24.159 --> 00:16:27.480
<v Speaker 1>was lying to a group of investors saying the regulator

289
00:16:27.559 --> 00:16:31.039
<v Speaker 1>will never approve any all coined ets, bitcoins the best,

290
00:16:31.080 --> 00:16:34.679
<v Speaker 1>and then literally a few weeks later, etherorem ETF was approved.

291
00:16:35.080 --> 00:16:37.600
<v Speaker 1>So I was like, this guy's a liar. I tweeted

292
00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:39.399
<v Speaker 1>out about it, and a bunch of people came, oh, no,

293
00:16:39.480 --> 00:16:42.480
<v Speaker 1>he didn't mean that, and he said what he said.

294
00:16:43.000 --> 00:16:46.679
<v Speaker 1>So I see him as an opportunist. I think he

295
00:16:46.759 --> 00:16:49.559
<v Speaker 1>tells people, you know, buy bitcoin, don't sell it, and

296
00:16:49.559 --> 00:16:53.600
<v Speaker 1>so forth, because he's simply that benefits him and his company.

297
00:16:53.759 --> 00:16:56.919
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't care about you and the ability for you

298
00:16:56.960 --> 00:17:00.120
<v Speaker 1>to have financial freedom. He just talks his book and

299
00:17:00.159 --> 00:17:02.879
<v Speaker 1>he puts out a narrative there that benefits him in

300
00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:05.480
<v Speaker 1>micro strategy. So I'm starting to see this for what

301
00:17:05.559 --> 00:17:08.000
<v Speaker 1>it is. A lot of people will probably disagree, but

302
00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:11.839
<v Speaker 1>make no mistake about it. Watch as things unfold. He's

303
00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:14.440
<v Speaker 1>starting to depart from some of the statements he's made

304
00:17:14.440 --> 00:17:17.880
<v Speaker 1>in the past, you know, in regards to the ethos

305
00:17:17.880 --> 00:17:21.720
<v Speaker 1>of bitcoins. So I'm glad Vitale called him out, and

306
00:17:21.759 --> 00:17:24.680
<v Speaker 1>I think this tweet here from Michael today is an

307
00:17:24.920 --> 00:17:28.000
<v Speaker 1>evidence that he's trying to cover his tracks here now.

308
00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:33.279
<v Speaker 1>Vietnam releases blockchain strategy aims for regional leadership. Vietnam's new

309
00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:38.319
<v Speaker 1>blockchain strategy focuses on legal frameworks, infrastructure, and international cooperation

310
00:17:38.720 --> 00:17:43.279
<v Speaker 1>as it aims to boost innovation and build a thriving ecosystem. Folks,

311
00:17:43.319 --> 00:17:46.599
<v Speaker 1>we are seeing the global adoption of cryptio and blockchain.

312
00:17:47.000 --> 00:17:49.680
<v Speaker 1>It's what we've been talking about for years. Every country

313
00:17:49.759 --> 00:17:53.079
<v Speaker 1>will participate. What if I said going back to twenty eighteen,

314
00:17:53.119 --> 00:17:57.039
<v Speaker 1>twenty nineteen and so forth. Any country that bans this technology,

315
00:17:57.480 --> 00:18:01.880
<v Speaker 1>they are writing their economic death center because the traditional

316
00:18:01.960 --> 00:18:04.839
<v Speaker 1>assets will be tokenized on the blockchain, and this is

317
00:18:04.839 --> 00:18:06.559
<v Speaker 1>going to be a big part in creating jobs and

318
00:18:06.640 --> 00:18:10.039
<v Speaker 1>driving GDP growth. It won't be the only factor, obviously,

319
00:18:10.200 --> 00:18:12.279
<v Speaker 1>there's going to be other industries, but this is going

320
00:18:12.319 --> 00:18:13.960
<v Speaker 1>to be a big part of it. If the world

321
00:18:14.039 --> 00:18:17.000
<v Speaker 1>is running on blockchain and you're taking all your traditional

322
00:18:17.039 --> 00:18:19.519
<v Speaker 1>assets and putting it on there, you've got to embrace

323
00:18:19.519 --> 00:18:21.279
<v Speaker 1>this thing. You've got to set the infrastructure up, you

324
00:18:21.359 --> 00:18:23.759
<v Speaker 1>got to put the legislation in place right. You got

325
00:18:23.799 --> 00:18:25.920
<v Speaker 1>to make it clear what institutions can do and what

326
00:18:26.000 --> 00:18:29.240
<v Speaker 1>retail can do. We are seeing across the globe a

327
00:18:29.440 --> 00:18:32.799
<v Speaker 1>move towards this industry and asset class, folks, and I

328
00:18:32.839 --> 00:18:35.079
<v Speaker 1>hope you see it as well. I've been sharing these

329
00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:39.000
<v Speaker 1>news items for years, and I hope it's resonating. I

330
00:18:39.039 --> 00:18:42.000
<v Speaker 1>hope in the recesses of your mind, you are remembering

331
00:18:42.039 --> 00:18:45.000
<v Speaker 1>these things and paying attention to what's happening. It's not

332
00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:49.920
<v Speaker 1>making the big headlines on Fox, CNN, MSNBC and whatever

333
00:18:49.960 --> 00:18:53.319
<v Speaker 1>mainstream media. But this is why we do our own research.

334
00:18:53.400 --> 00:18:55.799
<v Speaker 1>We go and look at the information like this. We

335
00:18:55.839 --> 00:18:58.279
<v Speaker 1>look at what the regulators are doing, what the big

336
00:18:58.319 --> 00:19:01.359
<v Speaker 1>money is doing, and much more, and take our position

337
00:19:02.039 --> 00:19:06.039
<v Speaker 1>because the masses are not paying attention. They're focusing other stuff,

338
00:19:06.079 --> 00:19:09.000
<v Speaker 1>their Netflix shows and the election and so forth. And

339
00:19:09.000 --> 00:19:11.480
<v Speaker 1>they'll get me wrong, there's nothing wrong with those things.

340
00:19:11.680 --> 00:19:14.000
<v Speaker 1>But there's a balance. Right at the end of the day.

341
00:19:14.440 --> 00:19:16.640
<v Speaker 1>We are trying to better our lives and get financial

342
00:19:16.680 --> 00:19:19.960
<v Speaker 1>freedom and so forth, and there is an opportunity of

343
00:19:20.000 --> 00:19:23.960
<v Speaker 1>a lifetime here and for the first time in history,

344
00:19:24.240 --> 00:19:26.359
<v Speaker 1>the average joke can take part. They don't have to

345
00:19:26.359 --> 00:19:28.759
<v Speaker 1>be accredited. They could be in any part of the

346
00:19:28.799 --> 00:19:33.240
<v Speaker 1>world and get a cut of this asset class and technology.

347
00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:36.200
<v Speaker 1>They can go build something in it, they can work

348
00:19:36.240 --> 00:19:39.279
<v Speaker 1>in it and so forth. But obviously the investment aspect

349
00:19:39.319 --> 00:19:42.640
<v Speaker 1>is the biggest part. So I am so happy and

350
00:19:42.720 --> 00:19:45.119
<v Speaker 1>I feel lucky to be here early that I recognize this,

351
00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:47.799
<v Speaker 1>and I've taken the position I've made money in previous

352
00:19:47.799 --> 00:19:50.119
<v Speaker 1>bull markets and I'm going to look into make significant

353
00:19:50.160 --> 00:19:52.880
<v Speaker 1>returns in this bullmarket. And I'm sure many of you

354
00:19:53.000 --> 00:19:57.599
<v Speaker 1>as well. So it's incredible what is taking place globally, folks.

355
00:19:57.759 --> 00:20:01.119
<v Speaker 1>So the Ministry of Information and Communication announced the strategy

356
00:20:01.160 --> 00:20:05.000
<v Speaker 1>on October twenty third, outlining several key objectives to develop

357
00:20:05.039 --> 00:20:09.480
<v Speaker 1>the country's blockchain capabilities. It aims to develop blockchain technology,

358
00:20:09.599 --> 00:20:13.640
<v Speaker 1>establish relevant legal frameworks, and promote innovation in what it

359
00:20:13.720 --> 00:20:17.759
<v Speaker 1>calls the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Do you want to know

360
00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:22.279
<v Speaker 1>where that Fourth Industrial Revolution title comes from? In the

361
00:20:22.319 --> 00:20:25.759
<v Speaker 1>context of crypto the World Economic Forum. I don't know

362
00:20:25.799 --> 00:20:28.119
<v Speaker 1>how many of you recall I shared it maybe with

363
00:20:28.200 --> 00:20:29.720
<v Speaker 1>you guys. A couple of years ago, or was it

364
00:20:29.759 --> 00:20:32.839
<v Speaker 1>back in twenty twenty when they released that paper the

365
00:20:32.960 --> 00:20:38.480
<v Speaker 1>Fourth Industrial Revolution, it included blockchain and crypto and so forth. Now,

366
00:20:38.599 --> 00:20:40.920
<v Speaker 1>if you're not doing your research, and you're reading headlines

367
00:20:40.920 --> 00:20:43.920
<v Speaker 1>and you're listening to Jim Kramer, you wouldn't know this right.

368
00:20:44.720 --> 00:20:48.599
<v Speaker 1>That's why I created this podcast. Folks. Big things are happening,

369
00:20:49.039 --> 00:20:52.680
<v Speaker 1>and it's not for the masses, but for those who

370
00:20:52.759 --> 00:20:56.440
<v Speaker 1>are financially educated. And financially educated means you can be

371
00:20:56.799 --> 00:20:59.920
<v Speaker 1>educated into how the stock market works, how markets were

372
00:21:00.200 --> 00:21:05.039
<v Speaker 1>to macro liquidity, money printing, what's happening in specific industries,

373
00:21:05.039 --> 00:21:08.359
<v Speaker 1>whether it's AI, blockchain and crypto and so forth. So

374
00:21:08.799 --> 00:21:11.559
<v Speaker 1>you have to do your own research. So big things

375
00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:13.720
<v Speaker 1>are ahead, folks. I'm very bullish. Let me know what

376
