00:00:04.960 --> 00:00:08.480
<v Speaker 1>Hey, everybody, Welcome into the Thinking Crypto Podcast, your home

2
00:00:08.560 --> 00:00:12.320
<v Speaker 1>for cryptocurrency news and interviews. I'm your host, Tony Edward.

00:00:12.560 --> 00:00:15.119
<v Speaker 1>On your way in. Please sit that subscribe button as

00:00:15.119 --> 00:00:17.519
<v Speaker 1>well as the thumbs up button and leave a common blow.

5
00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:20.399
<v Speaker 1>If you're listening on a podcast platform such as Spotify

6
00:00:20.519 --> 00:00:24.280
<v Speaker 1>or Apple, please leave a five star rating and review. Folks,

7
00:00:24.519 --> 00:00:26.879
<v Speaker 1>let's get into bitcoin because I know a lot of

8
00:00:26.879 --> 00:00:31.640
<v Speaker 1>people are getting bored, frustrated. The emotions are starting to

9
00:00:31.640 --> 00:00:33.439
<v Speaker 1>come out, and you know, I've been telling you guys,

10
00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:36.640
<v Speaker 1>don't be emotional about markets because we're just going through

11
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:39.520
<v Speaker 1>the cyclical patterns. There has been no invalidation of the

12
00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:42.799
<v Speaker 1>bull market. And while the current market conditions can eat

13
00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:46.399
<v Speaker 1>away at your confidence or hope and things like that. Again,

14
00:00:46.479 --> 00:00:48.640
<v Speaker 1>we don't want to invest with emotions, So we got

15
00:00:48.679 --> 00:00:50.159
<v Speaker 1>to go to the data. And that's what I want

16
00:00:50.159 --> 00:00:53.159
<v Speaker 1>to share with you guys. In addition to some crypto news. Now,

17
00:00:53.200 --> 00:00:55.000
<v Speaker 1>I put a lot of this content out today in

18
00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:57.799
<v Speaker 1>a newsletter on Substack. Make sure you're subscribed. It's one

19
00:00:57.880 --> 00:01:00.200
<v Speaker 1>hundred percent free, and I break down a lot of

20
00:01:00.240 --> 00:01:02.240
<v Speaker 1>these charts. If you want to slow down the pace

21
00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:04.760
<v Speaker 1>and start looking through the data and the charts that

22
00:01:04.799 --> 00:01:06.840
<v Speaker 1>I provide in a newsletter, you can certainly do that.

23
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:10.319
<v Speaker 1>So Bitcoin on the daily right now knocking at the

24
00:01:10.319 --> 00:01:13.239
<v Speaker 1>door of the oversoul zone. It has not dropped a

25
00:01:13.280 --> 00:01:16.079
<v Speaker 1>low thirty yet, so it seems like it wants to

26
00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:19.560
<v Speaker 1>head there, and it's been kind of moving sideways a

27
00:01:19.560 --> 00:01:22.719
<v Speaker 1>bit chopping before it dumps down. Now that would be

28
00:01:22.840 --> 00:01:25.799
<v Speaker 1>healthy because what we've seen is a cyclical pattern of

29
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:28.879
<v Speaker 1>going to the overbought zone where the price rallies to

30
00:01:28.920 --> 00:01:31.840
<v Speaker 1>a new high, then a big correction into the over

31
00:01:31.920 --> 00:01:35.439
<v Speaker 1>sol zone, where we find support levels that don't invalidate

32
00:01:35.480 --> 00:01:38.120
<v Speaker 1>the bull market, and then we bounce and keep going up.

33
00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:41.319
<v Speaker 1>So same cyclical pattern is playing out here. But one

34
00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:43.480
<v Speaker 1>thing I want to caution you all about is that

35
00:01:43.640 --> 00:01:46.640
<v Speaker 1>on the weekly chart, the Bitcoin weekly chart, the mac

36
00:01:46.719 --> 00:01:50.120
<v Speaker 1>D shows the bears are in control. It's in the red.

37
00:01:50.359 --> 00:01:54.560
<v Speaker 1>So we may have another week, another two weeks of

38
00:01:54.760 --> 00:01:59.599
<v Speaker 1>some downside and then finding the bottom and then start rallying.

39
00:01:59.719 --> 00:02:02.560
<v Speaker 1>I do believe, as I've stated recently, that we're going

40
00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:06.280
<v Speaker 1>to start rallying out of this hole come later in September,

41
00:02:06.680 --> 00:02:09.759
<v Speaker 1>and the rally picks up in October because we've seen

42
00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:13.800
<v Speaker 1>this seasonality. There are some big news items that are

43
00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:16.719
<v Speaker 1>lined up like raycuts, the Clarity Act, which we'll talk

44
00:02:16.759 --> 00:02:20.599
<v Speaker 1>a bit about today, and much more. So at this point,

45
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:24.800
<v Speaker 1>stay strong, expect volatilty, but we're still on track despite

46
00:02:24.840 --> 00:02:28.479
<v Speaker 1>what's happening here. If you look at the Bitcoin monthly chart,

47
00:02:29.159 --> 00:02:33.439
<v Speaker 1>everything again still on track. No invalidation, higher highs, higher lows.

48
00:02:33.479 --> 00:02:36.000
<v Speaker 1>We are comfortably above the two hundred day moving average

49
00:02:36.759 --> 00:02:39.319
<v Speaker 1>on the monthly Bulls are in control. You can see

50
00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:43.360
<v Speaker 1>the green here mac d everything looks good. The RSI

51
00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:47.840
<v Speaker 1>not in the over sold zone as far as how heated.

52
00:02:47.960 --> 00:02:50.439
<v Speaker 1>It has been at the tops of previous bull markets,

53
00:02:50.479 --> 00:02:54.039
<v Speaker 1>so that's a very good sign. We're nowhere near what

54
00:02:54.080 --> 00:02:58.199
<v Speaker 1>we've seen in twenty seventeen or twenty twenty one, so

55
00:02:58.599 --> 00:03:01.560
<v Speaker 1>we've come close, but we have not entered that green

56
00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:05.400
<v Speaker 1>zone for the RSI on the monthly chart. So again

57
00:03:05.879 --> 00:03:07.840
<v Speaker 1>one in en dowed Zoom out. Now. One of the

58
00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:09.879
<v Speaker 1>things I've been highlighting to you guys is that gold

59
00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:12.400
<v Speaker 1>has been a leading indicator in this bullmarket. If you

60
00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:15.919
<v Speaker 1>look at the charts, it completely shows you that. Because

61
00:03:15.960 --> 00:03:18.919
<v Speaker 1>we're in a macro bull market for all assets, all

62
00:03:18.919 --> 00:03:21.520
<v Speaker 1>of it is following global liquidity. That's why real estate's

63
00:03:21.560 --> 00:03:24.759
<v Speaker 1>hitting you all time highs, precious metals, cryptos, stocks and

64
00:03:24.800 --> 00:03:28.719
<v Speaker 1>so forth. So gold has hit a new all time high.

65
00:03:28.719 --> 00:03:32.199
<v Speaker 1>You look at the chart, it looks very very good. Now,

66
00:03:32.240 --> 00:03:34.280
<v Speaker 1>I do believe a top is coming in for gold.

67
00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:38.039
<v Speaker 1>It is currently in the overbought zone, so it's RSI

68
00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:42.199
<v Speaker 1>is in that seventy and above zone. So get ready

69
00:03:42.280 --> 00:03:45.439
<v Speaker 1>for possibly a sharp correction on gold maybe after a

70
00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:48.520
<v Speaker 1>little bit of upside, and then we are going to

71
00:03:48.520 --> 00:03:53.280
<v Speaker 1>see rotation among the assets. And even Matthew Siegel of

72
00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:58.000
<v Speaker 1>van k highlighted the correlation between gold and bitcoin. So

73
00:03:58.039 --> 00:04:01.400
<v Speaker 1>he says, here, every gold rally sparks the same pattern,

74
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:05.919
<v Speaker 1>bitcoin breaks out bigger. It's the macro rotation of liquidity. Now.

75
00:04:05.960 --> 00:04:08.439
<v Speaker 1>I know these things may be new concepts to you guys,

76
00:04:08.439 --> 00:04:11.199
<v Speaker 1>but I've been researching and studying these things for years

77
00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:14.840
<v Speaker 1>and I'm happy to now share that education with you,

78
00:04:14.960 --> 00:04:18.120
<v Speaker 1>right because we want to be educated, not emotional about

79
00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:21.279
<v Speaker 1>the market. So again we're seeing the same pattern we've

80
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:24.240
<v Speaker 1>seen throughout this bullmarket, and gold as being the leading

81
00:04:24.360 --> 00:04:27.720
<v Speaker 1>indicator for the bullmarket now as it relates to bitcoin.

82
00:04:28.439 --> 00:04:31.439
<v Speaker 1>I shared some of these charts in the newsletter. But

83
00:04:31.720 --> 00:04:35.480
<v Speaker 1>Bitcoin from an Elliott wave analysis standpoint, this is showing

84
00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:40.079
<v Speaker 1>again downside in the short term, but we got upside

85
00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:44.199
<v Speaker 1>to go, and this bullmarket blow off top happening within

86
00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:46.680
<v Speaker 1>the next four to six months. Now we don't have

87
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:49.800
<v Speaker 1>a crystal ball because we've seen things like tariff crashes

88
00:04:49.839 --> 00:04:52.560
<v Speaker 1>and much more slow us down push the timeline back.

89
00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:54.879
<v Speaker 1>So as I've been telling you guys, this bull market

90
00:04:54.959 --> 00:04:57.759
<v Speaker 1>could bleed into twenty twenty six, but we're gonna have

91
00:04:57.759 --> 00:05:01.040
<v Speaker 1>to wait and see where the next rally starts and

92
00:05:01.079 --> 00:05:04.439
<v Speaker 1>then adjust our thesis and our timelines. But an Elliot

93
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:08.000
<v Speaker 1>wave analysis shows that this downside here a wave two

94
00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:13.160
<v Speaker 1>and then you have the big wave three move into

95
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:16.959
<v Speaker 1>Q four. So again patients is the key. And if

96
00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:20.120
<v Speaker 1>you even do this for the total market cap, that

97
00:05:20.279 --> 00:05:23.360
<v Speaker 1>is also showing the same pattern. So even the Fibonacci

98
00:05:23.439 --> 00:05:26.360
<v Speaker 1>analysis but a total market cap shows we are nowhere

99
00:05:26.439 --> 00:05:29.360
<v Speaker 1>near the four point two three six extension, which would

100
00:05:29.399 --> 00:05:31.879
<v Speaker 1>put us a bit over ten trillion dollars, and I

101
00:05:31.879 --> 00:05:34.399
<v Speaker 1>do believe the market can get there. If you think

102
00:05:34.439 --> 00:05:38.959
<v Speaker 1>about stable coin liquidity, including stable coin liquidity, these assets

103
00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:41.759
<v Speaker 1>all hitting new highs and you know, you have so

104
00:05:41.839 --> 00:05:46.199
<v Speaker 1>much more happening now with institutional investors coming in, digital

105
00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:50.079
<v Speaker 1>asset treasury companies buying the et apps and much more so,

106
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:52.639
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot of demand, there's a lot of buying.

107
00:05:52.759 --> 00:05:55.279
<v Speaker 1>Despite what the price is doing right now, a lot

108
00:05:55.319 --> 00:05:58.319
<v Speaker 1>of these treasury companies are buying ETPs, are buying I

109
00:05:58.360 --> 00:05:59.839
<v Speaker 1>know some of you are gonna say, well, why isn't

110
00:05:59.839 --> 00:06:02.279
<v Speaker 1>it moving the market? Well, this is where you got

111
00:06:02.319 --> 00:06:04.920
<v Speaker 1>to have the education. A lot of these folks buy

112
00:06:04.959 --> 00:06:09.120
<v Speaker 1>OTC over the counter, so they're not buying any open market.

113
00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:12.439
<v Speaker 1>They go directly to exchanges or minors specifically for bitcoin,

114
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.439
<v Speaker 1>and they pay for the assets sometimes at a discounted rate,

115
00:06:16.319 --> 00:06:18.600
<v Speaker 1>or if they are using the open market, they buy

116
00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:22.000
<v Speaker 1>in very small increments. Michael Sailor has talked about this.

117
00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:25.399
<v Speaker 1>They buy, for example, they use coinbase and they will

118
00:06:25.399 --> 00:06:29.720
<v Speaker 1>buy very small increments over time, and you don't even know.

119
00:06:29.800 --> 00:06:32.399
<v Speaker 1>It looks like every other transaction, but it's actually a

120
00:06:32.519 --> 00:06:35.519
<v Speaker 1>series of purchases happening. So that's why you don't see

121
00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:38.519
<v Speaker 1>the buying being reflected here. And if you understand how

122
00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:42.600
<v Speaker 1>Wales and institutional investors operate, they want to take a position,

123
00:06:42.759 --> 00:06:45.040
<v Speaker 1>not move the market, then go out and put a

124
00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:48.519
<v Speaker 1>narrative on TV and move the market. Right. This is

125
00:06:48.519 --> 00:06:50.759
<v Speaker 1>how it's played. This is what's done in the stock

126
00:06:50.800 --> 00:06:53.240
<v Speaker 1>market and for other assets as well, folks, So you

127
00:06:53.319 --> 00:06:56.279
<v Speaker 1>have to understand how the game is played. Now a

128
00:06:56.319 --> 00:07:00.120
<v Speaker 1>big macro catalyst that a lot of people view as

129
00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:03.000
<v Speaker 1>more of a psychological thing. It is not necessarily a

130
00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:07.480
<v Speaker 1>fundamental issue, but more once again psychological for the retail

131
00:07:07.879 --> 00:07:10.040
<v Speaker 1>and that is Raycuts. Now. One of the things I've

132
00:07:10.040 --> 00:07:13.079
<v Speaker 1>been telling you guys, despite Jerome Powell getting pressure, people

133
00:07:13.160 --> 00:07:16.000
<v Speaker 1>calling him names, the president, different people, and you know,

134
00:07:16.040 --> 00:07:19.399
<v Speaker 1>the whole political dog and pony show, he's not gonna

135
00:07:19.439 --> 00:07:23.160
<v Speaker 1>budge because he's looking at his legacy and what he's

136
00:07:23.480 --> 00:07:26.040
<v Speaker 1>very much concerned about is, of course the labor market,

137
00:07:26.040 --> 00:07:28.040
<v Speaker 1>but also the bond market. And that's what a lot

138
00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:31.560
<v Speaker 1>of people won't tell you. But some very good signs

139
00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:34.199
<v Speaker 1>here coming from the bond market. So the bond market

140
00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:37.680
<v Speaker 1>is leaning towards raycuts. The two year treasury yield is

141
00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:42.199
<v Speaker 1>drifting lower, signaling expectations that the Fed will keep easing.

142
00:07:42.439 --> 00:07:44.680
<v Speaker 1>So this is very good and you know, I think

143
00:07:44.680 --> 00:07:47.519
<v Speaker 1>they will continue to do their liquidity injections. They haven't

144
00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:51.279
<v Speaker 1>done full on QI, but they've done pseudo QI, you know,

145
00:07:51.800 --> 00:07:55.879
<v Speaker 1>draining the Treasury General account and much more so. The

146
00:07:55.959 --> 00:07:59.519
<v Speaker 1>liquidity overall has been going up. You got global liquidity

147
00:07:59.600 --> 00:08:02.040
<v Speaker 1>and hitting new highs and so forth, and I highlighted

148
00:08:02.040 --> 00:08:06.040
<v Speaker 1>this in my newsletter. Global liquidity still shows the upside

149
00:08:06.120 --> 00:08:09.959
<v Speaker 1>move here for bitcoin and crypto assets. Question is are

150
00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:13.680
<v Speaker 1>we going to see a breakout to new highs come November,

151
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:16.439
<v Speaker 1>because right now it shows that top being in late

152
00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:19.759
<v Speaker 1>September bid into October, so it looks like it's on

153
00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:23.680
<v Speaker 1>the rise here, but we need confirmation. So as time progresses,

154
00:08:23.720 --> 00:08:26.839
<v Speaker 1>we're going to see the data roll in. And if

155
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:28.639
<v Speaker 1>you do look at the M two charts for the

156
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:32.240
<v Speaker 1>US and China and other countries, it's all on the rise.

157
00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:37.279
<v Speaker 1>So folks, risk assets are of course adjusted accordingly based

158
00:08:37.320 --> 00:08:42.360
<v Speaker 1>on global liquidity. All right, moving ahead, Michael Sailor strategy

159
00:08:42.399 --> 00:08:44.840
<v Speaker 1>will not be included in the S and P five hundred.

160
00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:47.320
<v Speaker 1>The other day I told you guys that potentially they

161
00:08:47.320 --> 00:08:50.639
<v Speaker 1>could be. But what's interesting, Robin Hood got put into

162
00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:52.519
<v Speaker 1>the S and P five hundred, and we know they

163
00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:56.480
<v Speaker 1>have gone full on crypto. I recently interviewed the CEO

164
00:08:56.519 --> 00:08:58.639
<v Speaker 1>of lad Tenev. If you haven't seen that, check it out.

165
00:08:59.120 --> 00:09:02.399
<v Speaker 1>They know the future of running on blockchain rails, so

166
00:09:02.480 --> 00:09:06.440
<v Speaker 1>they're tokenizing assets. They're doing a lot and many of

167
00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:09.960
<v Speaker 1>these companies that are doing crypto initiatives and offer services

168
00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:12.519
<v Speaker 1>are getting a lot of spotlight and are growing. So

169
00:09:12.919 --> 00:09:16.120
<v Speaker 1>this is very very good folks. Quick word from our sponsor,

170
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:18.600
<v Speaker 1>and that is Propy. Propy is leading to charge with

171
00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:21.399
<v Speaker 1>putting real estate on chain. You can buy and sell

172
00:09:21.440 --> 00:09:25.480
<v Speaker 1>your house on Propy and you can receive crypto for it.

173
00:09:25.480 --> 00:09:27.120
<v Speaker 1>So if you want to sell your house for bitcoin

174
00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:29.759
<v Speaker 1>or xrpi e theorem, you can do that. And Propy's

175
00:09:29.799 --> 00:09:33.639
<v Speaker 1>platform is blockchain power, so the contracts and all these

176
00:09:33.639 --> 00:09:36.879
<v Speaker 1>things are done on chain, which is pretty amazing. Propy

177
00:09:36.919 --> 00:09:40.080
<v Speaker 1>has been around since twenty seventeen. They've facilitated over four

178
00:09:40.120 --> 00:09:44.159
<v Speaker 1>billion dollars in transactions and they're a licensed Web three pioneer.

179
00:09:44.679 --> 00:09:48.039
<v Speaker 1>They have put deeds on chain, They've created NFTs for

180
00:09:48.120 --> 00:09:51.720
<v Speaker 1>properties and for the buying and selling and the scrow service.

181
00:09:51.799 --> 00:09:54.639
<v Speaker 1>They use Coinbase, so they are partnered with some very

182
00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:58.879
<v Speaker 1>trusted institutions. So I am a Propy token holder. I

183
00:09:58.919 --> 00:10:01.639
<v Speaker 1>have been since twenty eighteen. I recognize what they were

184
00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:04.240
<v Speaker 1>doing since twenty eighteen, and I'm like, look, I see

185
00:10:04.279 --> 00:10:07.759
<v Speaker 1>the future being on blockchain, and real estate is the

186
00:10:07.759 --> 00:10:10.639
<v Speaker 1>world's largest asset class, and guys, we know it's going

187
00:10:10.720 --> 00:10:13.559
<v Speaker 1>to get tokenized. We know what's coming. It's starting with

188
00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:16.240
<v Speaker 1>stocks right now, it's starting with gold. But you know

189
00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:20.039
<v Speaker 1>they're going to disrupt the whole real estate industry with blockchain,

190
00:10:20.120 --> 00:10:24.480
<v Speaker 1>tokenizing certain buildings and doing much more. And propies leading

191
00:10:24.519 --> 00:10:26.799
<v Speaker 1>the charge, folks. So if you'd like to learn more

192
00:10:26.919 --> 00:10:29.559
<v Speaker 1>about propygo to propy dot com. Link will be in

193
00:10:29.759 --> 00:10:32.559
<v Speaker 1>the description. Now, we have some very big updates around

194
00:10:32.600 --> 00:10:36.159
<v Speaker 1>the SEC and the CFTC. They continue to ramp up

195
00:10:36.240 --> 00:10:39.919
<v Speaker 1>efforts to provide clarity for the market. Just recently, we've

196
00:10:39.919 --> 00:10:42.279
<v Speaker 1>been seeing a lot of clarity coming from the SEC

197
00:10:42.320 --> 00:10:46.440
<v Speaker 1>as well as the CFTC. They both got their crypto initiatives.

198
00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:49.639
<v Speaker 1>One is called Crypto Sprint, the other's Project Crypto. So

199
00:10:49.759 --> 00:10:51.799
<v Speaker 1>things are moving in the right direction. So here we

200
00:10:51.840 --> 00:10:54.480
<v Speaker 1>got an update that the SEC and CFDC are ramping

201
00:10:54.559 --> 00:10:59.480
<v Speaker 1>up coordination to support crypto DeFi prediction markets, perpetual contracts,

202
00:10:59.480 --> 00:11:04.440
<v Speaker 1>and margining. The two agencies are aiming to harmonize rules,

203
00:11:04.480 --> 00:11:08.840
<v Speaker 1>reduce regulatory gaps, expand trading hours, and use innovation exemptions

204
00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:12.600
<v Speaker 1>to keep the US markets competitive. A joint roundtable to

205
00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:16.559
<v Speaker 1>be held on September twenty nine to discuss next steps. Folks,

206
00:11:16.679 --> 00:11:18.919
<v Speaker 1>this is what we want to see because if these

207
00:11:18.960 --> 00:11:23.080
<v Speaker 1>two agencies provide the clarity that's needed, it will usher

208
00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:26.919
<v Speaker 1>in tons of capital because many of these institutions and

209
00:11:27.000 --> 00:11:30.480
<v Speaker 1>big financial players some who still can't touch this acid class,

210
00:11:30.679 --> 00:11:33.960
<v Speaker 1>especially that the Clarity Act is not passed yet. You know,

211
00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:37.360
<v Speaker 1>they need to make sure the SEC and CFDC are

212
00:11:37.399 --> 00:11:41.399
<v Speaker 1>on board because they're lawyers. Their attorneys are going to say, hey,

213
00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:46.320
<v Speaker 1>too risky. We need confirmation we needed in writing. It

214
00:11:46.360 --> 00:11:49.039
<v Speaker 1>can be that Okay, President Trump is pro crypto. No,

215
00:11:49.200 --> 00:11:54.159
<v Speaker 1>we need the agencies to also have this all out there,

216
00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:56.000
<v Speaker 1>the clarity in there, because they're not going to take

217
00:11:56.039 --> 00:11:59.039
<v Speaker 1>the risk. I've heard this many times from many institutional

218
00:11:59.039 --> 00:12:02.480
<v Speaker 1>players and people who work with those institutional players. So

219
00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:05.679
<v Speaker 1>great to see this happening, and again it will usher

220
00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:08.360
<v Speaker 1>in more capital, which will drive the prices of the

221
00:12:08.480 --> 00:12:12.200
<v Speaker 1>assets higher. In addition, the SEC is not playing around.

222
00:12:12.279 --> 00:12:15.840
<v Speaker 1>They've announced the formation of a cross border Task Force

223
00:12:16.200 --> 00:12:18.879
<v Speaker 1>to combat fraud. This is great. You know, one of

224
00:12:18.879 --> 00:12:20.879
<v Speaker 1>the things I've been telling you guys about is I

225
00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:23.240
<v Speaker 1>believe in the free market. I don't believe mean coin

226
00:12:23.320 --> 00:12:26.240
<v Speaker 1>should be banned. And I'm just using this as an example,

227
00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:29.480
<v Speaker 1>but you need to have guardrails. We can't have pump

228
00:12:29.559 --> 00:12:32.399
<v Speaker 1>and dumps. And this article talks about a lot about

229
00:12:32.480 --> 00:12:35.759
<v Speaker 1>pump and dump and ramp and dump schemes. So they're

230
00:12:35.799 --> 00:12:38.639
<v Speaker 1>gonna start going after those people who are taking advantage

231
00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:41.679
<v Speaker 1>of these platforms and not doing the right things. So

232
00:12:42.000 --> 00:12:45.039
<v Speaker 1>if you are doing these bad activities trying to rug

233
00:12:45.080 --> 00:12:47.360
<v Speaker 1>pull people, you better watch out. And guess what, it's

234
00:12:47.399 --> 00:12:50.559
<v Speaker 1>not just us. They will go after you across the border.

235
00:12:50.600 --> 00:12:53.320
<v Speaker 1>So that's a cross border task force, right, So if

236
00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:56.759
<v Speaker 1>you're doing it from another country and you're affecting US users,

237
00:12:57.279 --> 00:12:59.879
<v Speaker 1>get ready, man, you're gonna have You're gonna be in trouble.

238
00:13:00.240 --> 00:13:03.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, they're going to coordinate with the other agencies,

239
00:13:03.559 --> 00:13:06.240
<v Speaker 1>regulatory agencies around the world, and you know, with all

240
00:13:06.279 --> 00:13:09.840
<v Speaker 1>these countries now moving to some sort of standard with

241
00:13:09.919 --> 00:13:14.679
<v Speaker 1>crypto legislation and everybody plugging into the blockchains and so forth,

242
00:13:14.879 --> 00:13:16.720
<v Speaker 1>it's going to be easy. It's going to be easy.

243
00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:19.879
<v Speaker 1>So this is very good, folks. I've been waiting to

244
00:13:19.960 --> 00:13:23.120
<v Speaker 1>hear about something like this where these agencies can go

245
00:13:23.159 --> 00:13:27.600
<v Speaker 1>after these pump and dumpers and rug pullers and much more. Now, folks,

246
00:13:27.720 --> 00:13:30.559
<v Speaker 1>some very good signs around the Clarity Act, the Crypto

247
00:13:30.639 --> 00:13:34.120
<v Speaker 1>Market Structure bill. We know David Sachs White House Cryptos

248
00:13:34.120 --> 00:13:38.320
<v Speaker 1>are said that they're expecting in late September to start

249
00:13:38.360 --> 00:13:41.240
<v Speaker 1>the process. Now it's an annoying process, right. You've got

250
00:13:41.279 --> 00:13:44.279
<v Speaker 1>to vote for the bill to be even considered on

251
00:13:44.360 --> 00:13:46.559
<v Speaker 1>the floor, then you have to vote to have it

252
00:13:46.759 --> 00:13:50.240
<v Speaker 1>moved to be reviewed. It's all these bells and whistles.

253
00:13:50.639 --> 00:13:53.120
<v Speaker 1>But you know, we saw this with the Genius Act.

254
00:13:53.600 --> 00:13:55.879
<v Speaker 1>But what you want to see is progress with the

255
00:13:55.960 --> 00:13:58.919
<v Speaker 1>draft and that the details are updated based on the

256
00:13:58.960 --> 00:14:01.679
<v Speaker 1>feedback of the industry, so that you have a quality

257
00:14:01.720 --> 00:14:05.240
<v Speaker 1>bill that reflects what the industry wants, that protects users,

258
00:14:05.279 --> 00:14:09.399
<v Speaker 1>provides or opens up innovation, and is ready to hit

259
00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:12.879
<v Speaker 1>the Senate floor. So Eleanor Tarrett reported that the Senate

260
00:14:12.919 --> 00:14:18.279
<v Speaker 1>Banking Committee's latest Market Structure draft reflects stakeholder and lobbyist feedback.

261
00:14:18.639 --> 00:14:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Here are some standouts from the texts and ciliary assets.

262
00:14:23.039 --> 00:14:25.919
<v Speaker 1>This section aims to provide that staking and air drops

263
00:14:25.919 --> 00:14:28.799
<v Speaker 1>are not securities, as well as providing the SEC enforcement

264
00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:32.759
<v Speaker 1>actions and private lawsuits cannot be brought against existing tokens

265
00:14:32.799 --> 00:14:37.159
<v Speaker 1>issued before the date of enactment, providing they are not fraudulent.

266
00:14:37.440 --> 00:14:39.759
<v Speaker 1>It also touches on deepen I'm not going to read

267
00:14:39.759 --> 00:14:43.200
<v Speaker 1>through everything. It also talks about protecting software developers, self

268
00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:48.200
<v Speaker 1>custody protections, and much more. So very positive sign folks.

269
00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:51.120
<v Speaker 1>This makes me very bullish. Things are moving ahead. We're

270
00:14:51.120 --> 00:14:53.519
<v Speaker 1>seeing progress right, even though it may not go as

271
00:14:53.519 --> 00:14:57.320
<v Speaker 1>fast as we want. But remember this is an alignment

272
00:14:57.440 --> 00:15:00.000
<v Speaker 1>with a huge narrative that could bring us the blame

273
00:15:00.120 --> 00:15:02.879
<v Speaker 1>off top that once this starts passing in the Senate

274
00:15:02.919 --> 00:15:06.399
<v Speaker 1>and much more, all coin ETPs get approved by the SEC.

275
00:15:06.440 --> 00:15:10.679
<v Speaker 1>Because the deadlines in October, We're setting up for a

276
00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:14.080
<v Speaker 1>massive parabolic move so that these things are going to

277
00:15:14.200 --> 00:15:17.279
<v Speaker 1>drive the narrative. So very bullish now, folks. Recently I

278
00:15:17.360 --> 00:15:20.279
<v Speaker 1>told you all about Crypto dot Com partner with Trump Media.

279
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:23.399
<v Speaker 1>Well apparently Trump Media closed the deal to buy the

280
00:15:23.480 --> 00:15:28.240
<v Speaker 1>six hundred and forty million in cro tokens. Now, guys,

281
00:15:29.399 --> 00:15:32.519
<v Speaker 1>one thing I am concerned about is all these things

282
00:15:32.559 --> 00:15:36.320
<v Speaker 1>happening with Trump and his company and his family involved

283
00:15:36.360 --> 00:15:38.840
<v Speaker 1>with crypto, and people are saying he's making tons of money.

284
00:15:39.320 --> 00:15:41.320
<v Speaker 1>You know, a lot of Democrats are not going to

285
00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:43.679
<v Speaker 1>like that, right, and even if you're not Democratic, a

286
00:15:43.720 --> 00:15:46.679
<v Speaker 1>lot of independent people don't like it as well. And

287
00:15:46.720 --> 00:15:48.559
<v Speaker 1>don't get me wrong, some Republicans as well. So I

288
00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:50.480
<v Speaker 1>don't want this to seem like, you know, it's just

289
00:15:50.759 --> 00:15:54.600
<v Speaker 1>the Republican versus Democrat thing, but a lot of Democrats

290
00:15:54.600 --> 00:15:56.240
<v Speaker 1>in the game of politics, they're going to try to

291
00:15:56.320 --> 00:16:00.440
<v Speaker 1>use this to potentially block that market structure. I hope

292
00:16:00.440 --> 00:16:03.120
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't happen. And you know, all these things happening

293
00:16:03.159 --> 00:16:07.919
<v Speaker 1>with Trump's meme coin and we're a liberty financial it's

294
00:16:07.960 --> 00:16:10.440
<v Speaker 1>it's a bit too much. I would I wish the

295
00:16:10.519 --> 00:16:13.720
<v Speaker 1>Trump family if they wanted to involve be involved in crypto,

296
00:16:13.840 --> 00:16:17.000
<v Speaker 1>they would uh wait for the bill to pass before

297
00:16:17.039 --> 00:16:20.759
<v Speaker 1>they do this stuff. But we can't control that. But nevertheless,

298
00:16:21.279 --> 00:16:25.480
<v Speaker 1>they're partnering with crypto dot Com. They're purchasing the cro token.

299
00:16:25.519 --> 00:16:28.000
<v Speaker 1>So if you are a CRO token holder, this is

300
00:16:28.080 --> 00:16:30.840
<v Speaker 1>very good. I personally don't hold a token, and I

301
00:16:30.840 --> 00:16:33.919
<v Speaker 1>think it could do well, you know, based on the exposure,

302
00:16:33.960 --> 00:16:36.440
<v Speaker 1>the distribution is going to get here and uh, you know,

303
00:16:36.519 --> 00:16:39.919
<v Speaker 1>probably a lot of Trump fans are going to invest

304
00:16:39.919 --> 00:16:44.600
<v Speaker 1>in this now moving ahead. Uh, Brazil's largest asset manager,

305
00:16:44.639 --> 00:16:48.320
<v Speaker 1>and I hope it down Butcher, This LAO asset forms

306
00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:51.879
<v Speaker 1>uh dedicated crypto units. So it's LOO assets. I know

307
00:16:51.919 --> 00:16:54.559
<v Speaker 1>it's again. I may not be pronouncing it right, but

308
00:16:55.240 --> 00:16:57.799
<v Speaker 1>I often tell you guys, crypto is a global asset

309
00:16:57.799 --> 00:17:03.080
<v Speaker 1>class and we are seeing development movement investment across the globe.

310
00:17:03.480 --> 00:17:08.440
<v Speaker 1>So LAO Asset Management, Brazil's largest private asset manager, has

311
00:17:08.799 --> 00:17:15.960
<v Speaker 1>created a dedicated cryptodivision and appointed former Hashtags executive HUAW

312
00:17:16.400 --> 00:17:21.559
<v Speaker 1>Marco Braga the TUNA to lead the unit. The new unit.

313
00:17:22.240 --> 00:17:26.519
<v Speaker 1>The unit builds on the company's existing crypto products, including

314
00:17:26.839 --> 00:17:31.759
<v Speaker 1>the bank's Bitcoin exchange traded fund and a retirement fund

315
00:17:31.839 --> 00:17:36.359
<v Speaker 1>offering exposure to digital assets. The company has or they

316
00:17:36.400 --> 00:17:39.759
<v Speaker 1>manage one trillion rayas, which is one hundred and eighty

317
00:17:39.759 --> 00:17:44.079
<v Speaker 1>five million dollars in assets for its clients. Here's a quote.

318
00:17:44.359 --> 00:17:48.920
<v Speaker 1>The crypto asset segment has unique characteristics for generating alpha.

319
00:17:49.440 --> 00:17:53.039
<v Speaker 1>It's a relatively new market that creates major opportunities due

320
00:17:53.039 --> 00:17:57.079
<v Speaker 1>to its volatility folks. Again, I often say this, do

321
00:17:57.119 --> 00:18:00.559
<v Speaker 1>you see what's happening? There is a global race, and

322
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:02.599
<v Speaker 1>you still have people out there who think this is

323
00:18:02.640 --> 00:18:05.279
<v Speaker 1>a scam because they haven't taken the next step to

324
00:18:05.440 --> 00:18:08.880
<v Speaker 1>educate themselves. They just see the speculation market, but they

325
00:18:08.920 --> 00:18:13.480
<v Speaker 1>don't see the technology and the disruption and the utility

326
00:18:13.519 --> 00:18:16.960
<v Speaker 1>of all this and this being that next layer on

327
00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:18.599
<v Speaker 1>top of the Internet. So it's going to change the

328
00:18:18.640 --> 00:18:21.000
<v Speaker 1>way we do commerce and interact with each other and

329
00:18:21.039 --> 00:18:25.400
<v Speaker 1>trust each other in much more. But very bullish, I mean, incredible,

330
00:18:25.400 --> 00:18:28.920
<v Speaker 1>incredible news here. Now look at this. NASDAK approves soul

331
00:18:29.160 --> 00:18:32.480
<v Speaker 1>Strategies listing for next week. So it looks like this

332
00:18:32.559 --> 00:18:35.559
<v Speaker 1>is a digital acid treasury company focused on Solana of course,

333
00:18:35.880 --> 00:18:39.680
<v Speaker 1>so Canadian blockchain companies. Soul Strategies is set to debut

334
00:18:39.799 --> 00:18:43.480
<v Speaker 1>on NASDAC next week after securing approval to list it shares.

335
00:18:43.720 --> 00:18:47.240
<v Speaker 1>In a Friday notice, Soul Strategies said it would begin

336
00:18:47.359 --> 00:18:51.359
<v Speaker 1>listing common shares on the NASDAK Global Select Market starting

337
00:18:51.680 --> 00:18:55.880
<v Speaker 1>on September ninth, under the ticker symbol st KE. The

338
00:18:55.920 --> 00:18:59.039
<v Speaker 1>listing will end of the company's shares training on the

339
00:18:59.200 --> 00:19:04.440
<v Speaker 1>over the counter venture market q or OTCQB while maintaining

340
00:19:04.480 --> 00:19:09.680
<v Speaker 1>training activity on the Canadian Securities Exchange. So, folks, the

341
00:19:09.799 --> 00:19:14.319
<v Speaker 1>expansion continues, right, companies going public getting publicly listed on

342
00:19:14.480 --> 00:19:17.559
<v Speaker 1>stock exchanges around the globe, obviously more so in the

343
00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:20.519
<v Speaker 1>United States because there was a huge block over the

344
00:19:20.559 --> 00:19:24.519
<v Speaker 1>past four years under Elizabeth Warren and Gary Genser. But

345
00:19:25.039 --> 00:19:27.559
<v Speaker 1>now the floodgates are open and a lot of folks

346
00:19:27.599 --> 00:19:31.599
<v Speaker 1>are going live on stock exchanges. Pretty incredible stuff now

347
00:19:31.640 --> 00:19:36.319
<v Speaker 1>moving ahead, stable cooin x expands financing to eight hundred

348
00:19:36.359 --> 00:19:41.079
<v Speaker 1>and ninety million dollars for Athena's e NA treasury. So

349
00:19:41.240 --> 00:19:45.680
<v Speaker 1>stable coin x and tlgy acquisition have secured an additional

350
00:19:45.720 --> 00:19:50.519
<v Speaker 1>five and thirty million dollars in financing to buy digital assets,

351
00:19:50.599 --> 00:19:54.319
<v Speaker 1>bringing total commitments to eight hundred and ninety million dollars

352
00:19:54.400 --> 00:19:58.359
<v Speaker 1>ahead of a plan merger and Nasdaq listing. Folks, look

353
00:19:58.359 --> 00:20:02.480
<v Speaker 1>at the capital that is sloshing through this asset class

354
00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:05.559
<v Speaker 1>in industry. People are bullish. They see the long term potential.

355
00:20:05.920 --> 00:20:07.960
<v Speaker 1>And now that doesn't mean everything's going to be a winner,

356
00:20:08.319 --> 00:20:12.720
<v Speaker 1>but clearly these are signs of maturation and growth. We

357
00:20:12.799 --> 00:20:15.200
<v Speaker 1>saw this in the dot com boom, so this is

358
00:20:15.200 --> 00:20:16.960
<v Speaker 1>where you do have to be careful, of course, do

359
00:20:17.000 --> 00:20:20.759
<v Speaker 1>your research, what are quality token projects, companies and much more.

360
00:20:21.519 --> 00:20:24.480
<v Speaker 1>Be smart, right, Not just because a company got money

361
00:20:25.000 --> 00:20:27.680
<v Speaker 1>means they're good or they're going to be properly run.

362
00:20:27.720 --> 00:20:31.000
<v Speaker 1>You know, management and having a proper CEO and people

363
00:20:31.039 --> 00:20:34.920
<v Speaker 1>making right decisions is important. So but but you know,

364
00:20:34.960 --> 00:20:38.720
<v Speaker 1>from a macro perspective, these are all healthy signs. So

365
00:20:38.839 --> 00:20:43.799
<v Speaker 1>the combined company, to be renamed stable coin x, Incorporated,

366
00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:46.519
<v Speaker 1>is set to hold more than three billion e NA,

367
00:20:46.920 --> 00:20:50.240
<v Speaker 1>the native token of the Athena protocol. According to the company,

368
00:20:50.319 --> 00:20:53.680
<v Speaker 1>it will be the first dedicated treasury business for the

369
00:20:53.720 --> 00:21:00.839
<v Speaker 1>Athena ecosystem, which issues the USDE and usd TB stable coin. Now.

370
00:21:00.880 --> 00:21:04.079
<v Speaker 1>I don't know much about the Athena protocol or blockchain

371
00:21:04.160 --> 00:21:08.039
<v Speaker 1>and some of these stable coins, but man, that's a

372
00:21:08.039 --> 00:21:11.160
<v Speaker 1>lot of capital. They're going to get publicly listed, and

373
00:21:11.240 --> 00:21:13.880
<v Speaker 1>again you want to be smart and see who's backing

374
00:21:13.920 --> 00:21:15.839
<v Speaker 1>them and so forth. It looks like some big names

375
00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:21.480
<v Speaker 1>Brevin Howard, Parafy, Capital, Han Ventures, Dragonflies, so a lot

376
00:21:21.480 --> 00:21:25.039
<v Speaker 1>of big names here. So, folks, things are heating up.

377
00:21:25.160 --> 00:21:28.359
<v Speaker 1>I know the prices don't reflect that right now, but again,

378
00:21:28.480 --> 00:21:30.839
<v Speaker 1>don't be emotional, look at the data, look at the charts.
