<v Speaker 1>well as the thumbs up button and leave a common blow.

5
00:00:16.719 --> 00:00:19.280
<v Speaker 1>If you're listening on a podcast platform such as Spotify

6
00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:22.600
<v Speaker 1>or Apple, please leave a five star rating and review. Folks,

7
00:00:22.679 --> 00:00:24.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure many of you are seeing the reversal that's

8
00:00:24.920 --> 00:00:27.719
<v Speaker 1>happening on the bitcoin chart right now. Bitcoin is back

9
00:00:27.719 --> 00:00:30.719
<v Speaker 1>over one hundred and five thousand dollars. So over the

10
00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:33.320
<v Speaker 1>past four weeks or so, I've been sharing with you

11
00:00:33.359 --> 00:00:36.320
<v Speaker 1>guys the chart of bitcoin being in the overbought zone,

12
00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:38.159
<v Speaker 1>and we were headed to the over sold and we

13
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:41.039
<v Speaker 1>went down and touched the zone which I think is

14
00:00:41.240 --> 00:00:43.759
<v Speaker 1>near the bottom, which is ninety a k. I've said

15
00:00:43.759 --> 00:00:45.920
<v Speaker 1>that many times in my newsletter as well as on

16
00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:49.719
<v Speaker 1>the podcast, but I want to be cautiously optimistic here

17
00:00:49.759 --> 00:00:52.479
<v Speaker 1>because we've seen the markets fake us out. It doesn't

18
00:00:52.520 --> 00:00:55.039
<v Speaker 1>mean the bull market's over. We're talking about the micro here.

19
00:00:55.320 --> 00:00:58.159
<v Speaker 1>In the macro, we are headed to new highs, but

20
00:00:58.280 --> 00:01:00.439
<v Speaker 1>the path to that is going to be balls. You've

21
00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:03.399
<v Speaker 1>got to expect volatility in this market, so don't be

22
00:01:03.520 --> 00:01:07.400
<v Speaker 1>surprised if Bitcoin rolls over again to test the ninety

23
00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:10.519
<v Speaker 1>ak or goes to ninety six K. Just something to

24
00:01:10.599 --> 00:01:12.719
<v Speaker 1>keep in mind. I'm not saying it's guaranteed. I'm not

25
00:01:12.760 --> 00:01:15.920
<v Speaker 1>saying it's absolutely going to happen. It's just that as educated,

26
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:19.159
<v Speaker 1>informed investors, we want to be prepared for all cycles

27
00:01:19.400 --> 00:01:21.200
<v Speaker 1>and we don't want to get faked out. We want

28
00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:22.439
<v Speaker 1>to look at the data and look at what the

29
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:26.400
<v Speaker 1>charts are showing at. So Bitcoin, it's RSI bottomed out

30
00:01:26.480 --> 00:01:29.359
<v Speaker 1>around thirty seven or so, but it could go down

31
00:01:29.519 --> 00:01:33.879
<v Speaker 1>and that RSI could touch the thirty level or even below.

32
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:36.879
<v Speaker 1>We've seen this time and time again. It just depends

33
00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:38.920
<v Speaker 1>on how things play out and we'll just have to

34
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:42.239
<v Speaker 1>be patient. But we're also seeing moves from the stock

35
00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:45.400
<v Speaker 1>market as well, specifically the S and P five hundred.

36
00:01:45.439 --> 00:01:48.920
<v Speaker 1>So as I've been saying, global liquidity is the leader here,

37
00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:51.640
<v Speaker 1>showing us the path where all assets are going to

38
00:01:51.719 --> 00:01:54.920
<v Speaker 1>go to. Because as the central banks and governments around

39
00:01:54.920 --> 00:01:58.439
<v Speaker 1>the world continue to inject liquidity by debasing their currency,

40
00:01:58.439 --> 00:02:01.400
<v Speaker 1>printing more money at prices are going to follow. So

41
00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:06.799
<v Speaker 1>you're seeing gold, silver, crypto stocks, real estate all hitting

42
00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:09.319
<v Speaker 1>new highs, right, and they do have their turns. There's

43
00:02:09.680 --> 00:02:12.159
<v Speaker 1>kind of a cycling of the liquidity, so they don't

44
00:02:12.199 --> 00:02:14.599
<v Speaker 1>all pump at the same time. But if you just

45
00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:16.879
<v Speaker 1>zoom out on the charts, you see all these assets

46
00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:20.319
<v Speaker 1>are moving and of course it's all driven by global liquidity. Now,

47
00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:23.159
<v Speaker 1>if you go to the micro there's demand for certain stocks,

48
00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:26.080
<v Speaker 1>there's demand for certain real estate in certain regions, there's

49
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:31.360
<v Speaker 1>demand for certain cryptos. But the overall rising tide is

50
00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:34.879
<v Speaker 1>that global liquidity that is taking the prices to new highs.

51
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:36.879
<v Speaker 1>So this is where you have to be patient and

52
00:02:36.919 --> 00:02:39.759
<v Speaker 1>go through the cycles because it is volatile whether you're

53
00:02:39.800 --> 00:02:41.560
<v Speaker 1>in the stock market or crypto. And look, I know

54
00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:45.960
<v Speaker 1>crypto is more volatile. Of course, specifically for the stock market.

55
00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:49.759
<v Speaker 1>SMP five hundred confirms hidden bullish divergence on the daily.

56
00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:53.680
<v Speaker 1>So you're seeing the bounces across the board here and

57
00:02:54.039 --> 00:02:57.520
<v Speaker 1>even certain all coins started bouncing like ethereum, X or

58
00:02:57.639 --> 00:03:00.599
<v Speaker 1>P and others. So that's a good sign. Like I said,

59
00:03:01.000 --> 00:03:04.759
<v Speaker 1>just be prepared for a retest of somebody's lows, and

60
00:03:05.240 --> 00:03:06.960
<v Speaker 1>it's not going to be an extended thing. Could be

61
00:03:07.000 --> 00:03:10.759
<v Speaker 1>something quick and then the market finds its actual bottom

62
00:03:10.759 --> 00:03:14.639
<v Speaker 1>and starts moving or like I said, this is maybe

63
00:03:14.680 --> 00:03:17.919
<v Speaker 1>the bottom and we're moving up. So just remember what

64
00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:20.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you here so that you can control your

65
00:03:20.840 --> 00:03:24.159
<v Speaker 1>emotions and understand the path forward. Now here's some very

66
00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:27.000
<v Speaker 1>bullish news coming out of the Federal Reserve. So here's

67
00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:31.759
<v Speaker 1>the headline. Federal Reserve officially ends reputational risk oversight, easing

68
00:03:31.840 --> 00:03:35.960
<v Speaker 1>crypto banking restrictions. So we're seeing easing from the OCC,

69
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:40.280
<v Speaker 1>the FED, the FDIC, everything is being opened up here

70
00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:43.919
<v Speaker 1>for crypto because this acid class and technology is here

71
00:03:43.960 --> 00:03:47.039
<v Speaker 1>to stay. And the banks are ready to participate because

72
00:03:47.599 --> 00:03:50.319
<v Speaker 1>we see that legislations on the custom of being passed

73
00:03:50.360 --> 00:03:53.800
<v Speaker 1>stable coined legislation as well as market structure. So the banks,

74
00:03:53.879 --> 00:03:56.120
<v Speaker 1>many of them, are already signaled they're ready to launch

75
00:03:56.159 --> 00:03:59.680
<v Speaker 1>their own stable coins. We recently reported on JP Morgan

76
00:03:59.759 --> 00:04:03.280
<v Speaker 1>launch their deposit token. Bank of America confirmed just about

77
00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:05.439
<v Speaker 1>a couple of weeks ago that they are ready to

78
00:04:05.479 --> 00:04:08.360
<v Speaker 1>launch their stable coins, and even all the major banks

79
00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:11.280
<v Speaker 1>Bank of America, JP Morgan, Wells Fargo are looking to

80
00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:14.240
<v Speaker 1>work on a joint stable coin, which I think has

81
00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:16.600
<v Speaker 1>the vibes of a CBDC. So you got to watch

82
00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:19.399
<v Speaker 1>out for that. So, guys, things are opening up very

83
00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:22.600
<v Speaker 1>beautifully here for crypto. It's going to allow more capital

84
00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:25.240
<v Speaker 1>to come into the acid class, more adoption, and much more,

85
00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:28.759
<v Speaker 1>which will lead to higher prices. So this is great news.

86
00:04:29.079 --> 00:04:32.720
<v Speaker 1>And on the legislation front, eleanor terrorit is reporting that

87
00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:36.439
<v Speaker 1>the Banking GOP is aiming to put out Principles AKA

88
00:04:36.519 --> 00:04:40.720
<v Speaker 1>and Overview of Core Ideas slash values for its Market

89
00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:44.879
<v Speaker 1>Structure bill at some point either later today or tomorrow

90
00:04:45.160 --> 00:04:48.319
<v Speaker 1>ahead of tomorrow's subcommittee hearing on the matter. So now

91
00:04:48.399 --> 00:04:51.720
<v Speaker 1>that we're seeing a stable coin legislation has been wrapped

92
00:04:51.759 --> 00:04:53.560
<v Speaker 1>up in a Senate and it's moving to the House.

93
00:04:53.959 --> 00:04:56.480
<v Speaker 1>We're seeing this Senate is now starting to focus on

94
00:04:56.560 --> 00:04:59.120
<v Speaker 1>market structure. So many of you know President Trump gave

95
00:04:59.160 --> 00:05:02.720
<v Speaker 1>the mandate that he wants the bills on his desk

96
00:05:03.079 --> 00:05:06.600
<v Speaker 1>by the August recess to sign him into laws. So

97
00:05:07.000 --> 00:05:09.720
<v Speaker 1>the sooner Congress can get this done, the faster these

98
00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:12.279
<v Speaker 1>things can become law, and that will open up a

99
00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:15.040
<v Speaker 1>ton of capital to come into the acid class, a

100
00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:17.879
<v Speaker 1>lot of building and innovation and will all lead to

101
00:05:17.959 --> 00:05:22.160
<v Speaker 1>higher prices. Now moving ahead, Anthony Pompliano he's in the

102
00:05:22.199 --> 00:05:25.560
<v Speaker 1>news here. So Anthony Pompliano is getting involved in a

103
00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:28.800
<v Speaker 1>company that's going to have a bigcoin treasury strategy. It's

104
00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:32.079
<v Speaker 1>a big one. So here's the headline. Anthony Pompoliano's pro

105
00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:35.759
<v Speaker 1>Cap to go public in a one billion dollar bigcoin

106
00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:38.319
<v Speaker 1>treasury SPAC deal. So many of you may have heard

107
00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:41.839
<v Speaker 1>of spas and how companies can use those to go

108
00:05:41.959 --> 00:05:44.360
<v Speaker 1>public and much more. And this is a big one

109
00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:47.639
<v Speaker 1>by pomp I mean one billion dollars, so pretty incredible.

110
00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:50.959
<v Speaker 1>So pro Cap raise five hundred and fifty million dollars

111
00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:53.800
<v Speaker 1>in preferred equity and secure two hundred and twenty five

112
00:05:53.879 --> 00:05:57.959
<v Speaker 1>million dollars in convertible notes. Now Michael Saylor put the

113
00:05:58.360 --> 00:06:01.160
<v Speaker 1>blueprint out there for this, right, But these companies are

114
00:06:01.199 --> 00:06:05.120
<v Speaker 1>now looking to go buy up or buy a bunch

115
00:06:05.120 --> 00:06:07.639
<v Speaker 1>of shares from a company that's already public, and this

116
00:06:07.759 --> 00:06:10.800
<v Speaker 1>allows their respective company to go public and of course

117
00:06:11.000 --> 00:06:14.160
<v Speaker 1>do the whole stock arbitrage with buying bitcoin and raising

118
00:06:14.199 --> 00:06:17.279
<v Speaker 1>debt and all that stuff. So the transaction announced Monday

119
00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:21.319
<v Speaker 1>positions the new entity pro Cap Financial Incorporated, as one

120
00:06:21.319 --> 00:06:24.759
<v Speaker 1>of the largest bitcoin treasuries ever to hit public markets.

121
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:27.680
<v Speaker 1>So the company plans to generate profit not just by

122
00:06:27.720 --> 00:06:31.879
<v Speaker 1>holding bitcoin, but by actively deploying its bitcoin balance sheet

123
00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:36.240
<v Speaker 1>across yield, generating strategies that mitigate risk and capitalize on

124
00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:40.959
<v Speaker 1>crypto financial infrastructure. The legacy financial system is being disrupted

125
00:06:40.959 --> 00:06:44.160
<v Speaker 1>by bitcoin, pomp Leiono said in a statement, pro Cap

126
00:06:44.199 --> 00:06:47.800
<v Speaker 1>Financial represents our solution to increasing demand for bitcoin native

127
00:06:47.839 --> 00:06:53.199
<v Speaker 1>financial services among sophisticated investors. So, folks, this trend, as

128
00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:55.439
<v Speaker 1>I've been saying for a long time, over a year now,

129
00:06:55.720 --> 00:06:58.560
<v Speaker 1>with Sailor and what he's doing and other companies entering

130
00:06:58.600 --> 00:07:00.800
<v Speaker 1>in this trend, is not ending. It's going to go

131
00:07:00.800 --> 00:07:02.800
<v Speaker 1>beyond Bitcoin to all coins, and we're starting to see

132
00:07:02.800 --> 00:07:05.839
<v Speaker 1>a bit of that. We've had news around Solona, etherorem

133
00:07:05.879 --> 00:07:10.879
<v Speaker 1>and XRP as treasury reserve assets. Now what's appealing about

134
00:07:10.959 --> 00:07:14.959
<v Speaker 1>your Solanas and your etherorems is the staking component. So

135
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:17.480
<v Speaker 1>you have that built in yield feature if you want

136
00:07:17.480 --> 00:07:19.959
<v Speaker 1>to call it that. But you don't necessarily need that,

137
00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:24.360
<v Speaker 1>but it is a great attribute. XRP and bitcoin have

138
00:07:24.480 --> 00:07:29.319
<v Speaker 1>to find defive ways of earning that yield. So it's incredible.

139
00:07:29.360 --> 00:07:33.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean, one billion dollars that's to buy bitcoin. That's

140
00:07:33.839 --> 00:07:37.279
<v Speaker 1>pretty incredible and speaking of the treasury reserve asset strategy,

141
00:07:37.399 --> 00:07:41.360
<v Speaker 1>a semiconductor firm sequons to raise three hundred and eighty

142
00:07:41.360 --> 00:07:44.759
<v Speaker 1>four million dollars for their bitcoin treasury. So roughly two

143
00:07:44.800 --> 00:07:47.519
<v Speaker 1>hundred and forty companies now hold bitcoin in their treasuries,

144
00:07:47.800 --> 00:07:51.759
<v Speaker 1>nearly doubling from one hundred and twenty four just weeks ago. Combine,

145
00:07:51.920 --> 00:07:54.959
<v Speaker 1>they control around four percent of the total bitcoin supply.

146
00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:58.720
<v Speaker 1>So we're seeing adoption on many fronts here and it's

147
00:07:58.759 --> 00:08:01.720
<v Speaker 1>happening globally, folks. Quick word from our sponsor and that

148
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:04.079
<v Speaker 1>is vchain. Vchain is one of the top layer one

149
00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:08.319
<v Speaker 1>blockchains out there. They're getting adoption by many enterprises, big

150
00:08:08.319 --> 00:08:11.759
<v Speaker 1>companies and more who are using v chain to build

151
00:08:11.800 --> 00:08:15.879
<v Speaker 1>Web three technology and sustainability technology. I've been a VET

152
00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:19.160
<v Speaker 1>token holder for many years, since twenty eighteen. I'm very

153
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:21.600
<v Speaker 1>bullish on this project. Some of the key features of

154
00:08:21.639 --> 00:08:25.000
<v Speaker 1>the v chain blockchain includes a secure, affordable, scalable, fast,

155
00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:27.600
<v Speaker 1>and sustainable. Some of the brands that are using vchain

156
00:08:27.639 --> 00:08:31.959
<v Speaker 1>includes Jivon, Chi, PwC, Walmart, China, BMW, Boston Consulting Group,

157
00:08:32.240 --> 00:08:35.240
<v Speaker 1>and many others. They are even partnered with Dana White

158
00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:37.000
<v Speaker 1>in the UFC. Many of you may have seen that

159
00:08:37.879 --> 00:08:40.960
<v Speaker 1>partnership and they're doing some great things. So if you'd

160
00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:43.639
<v Speaker 1>like to learn more about vchain, go to vchain dot org.

161
00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:46.480
<v Speaker 1>Link will be in the description. Now, folks, look at

162
00:08:46.519 --> 00:08:50.120
<v Speaker 1>this news. Crypto hedge fund executives to raise one hundred

163
00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:55.000
<v Speaker 1>million dollars for BnB treasury vehicle. This is so interesting.

164
00:08:55.000 --> 00:08:59.440
<v Speaker 1>So according to Bloomberg, former executives at Choral Capital Holdings

165
00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:02.559
<v Speaker 1>want to create B and B Treasury Company. So, as

166
00:09:02.600 --> 00:09:04.600
<v Speaker 1>I was saying earlier, you know they're going to go

167
00:09:04.639 --> 00:09:07.120
<v Speaker 1>beyond bitcoin, and now B and B is entering the game.

168
00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Now this is actually surprising because BnB is a exchange coin.

169
00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:15.200
<v Speaker 1>It's the native coin of the Binance exchange. So very fascinating.

170
00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:18.960
<v Speaker 1>But look, if all these assets are going to move

171
00:09:19.360 --> 00:09:21.679
<v Speaker 1>with global liquidity and they're in the top tens or

172
00:09:21.679 --> 00:09:25.320
<v Speaker 1>they're getting exposure, they're very liquid, they're gonna do well,

173
00:09:25.320 --> 00:09:27.559
<v Speaker 1>They're gonna make returns. And if these guys play their

174
00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:30.879
<v Speaker 1>cards well and they do the arbitrage with raising their

175
00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:34.320
<v Speaker 1>debt and with their stocks, it could work out. Now,

176
00:09:34.600 --> 00:09:36.720
<v Speaker 1>what we have to watch out for this could lead

177
00:09:36.759 --> 00:09:39.639
<v Speaker 1>to some sort of bubble because not everyone's going to

178
00:09:39.639 --> 00:09:42.080
<v Speaker 1>be a winner. I'm sure not. Everybody's going to be

179
00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:44.600
<v Speaker 1>doing this the right way. It comes down to the

180
00:09:44.639 --> 00:09:48.759
<v Speaker 1>team how they manage this. So this could be something

181
00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:51.759
<v Speaker 1>that takes us into a bear market with some collapses.

182
00:09:51.840 --> 00:09:53.759
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying all these companies are going to collapse

183
00:09:53.759 --> 00:09:56.440
<v Speaker 1>and there's going to be some massive collapse of everything,

184
00:09:56.519 --> 00:09:59.559
<v Speaker 1>of course, not right, but some will. I mean history

185
00:09:59.600 --> 00:10:02.799
<v Speaker 1>has taught does this in market, So let's see how

186
00:10:02.799 --> 00:10:04.600
<v Speaker 1>this all plays out. That's why you want to have

187
00:10:04.639 --> 00:10:07.919
<v Speaker 1>a profit taking plan near the top of this market,

188
00:10:07.960 --> 00:10:10.039
<v Speaker 1>to walk away from the bold market with money because

189
00:10:10.320 --> 00:10:13.440
<v Speaker 1>bear markets do return. So if anyone's telling you there's

190
00:10:13.559 --> 00:10:16.320
<v Speaker 1>never going to be a bear market ever, again, they

191
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:19.039
<v Speaker 1>are lying to you. History is not on their side.

192
00:10:19.440 --> 00:10:23.320
<v Speaker 1>And we see that the crypto market, stocks and all

193
00:10:23.399 --> 00:10:26.799
<v Speaker 1>these things, real estate, it's all correlated to global liquidity.

194
00:10:26.840 --> 00:10:30.200
<v Speaker 1>And if there's a downturn in liquidity and the Fed

195
00:10:30.279 --> 00:10:32.320
<v Speaker 1>has to raise rates and you know, we go through

196
00:10:32.320 --> 00:10:34.519
<v Speaker 1>another tightening cycle, of course we're going to see a

197
00:10:34.559 --> 00:10:38.039
<v Speaker 1>bear market. Right, That's the nature of how the economy

198
00:10:38.039 --> 00:10:40.720
<v Speaker 1>and the markets work. Now. Anchorage Digital, which is a

199
00:10:40.720 --> 00:10:44.480
<v Speaker 1>crypto custody firm, they have added defied capability for institutions

200
00:10:44.480 --> 00:10:48.360
<v Speaker 1>with uniswamp wallet integration. So we continue to see the

201
00:10:48.399 --> 00:10:52.039
<v Speaker 1>infrastructure being set up for institutional investors, not just retail.

202
00:10:52.159 --> 00:10:54.320
<v Speaker 1>I think for the most part retail has all these things,

203
00:10:54.360 --> 00:10:57.279
<v Speaker 1>but for institutions the big money. So this should be

204
00:10:57.279 --> 00:11:00.519
<v Speaker 1>a clear indication folks, there's demand, there's more money to

205
00:11:00.559 --> 00:11:02.919
<v Speaker 1>come into this market. And as I said earlier, with

206
00:11:02.960 --> 00:11:06.159
<v Speaker 1>crypto legislation, once that gets passed, a lot of capital

207
00:11:06.200 --> 00:11:08.120
<v Speaker 1>that's been sitting on the sidelines are going to jump

208
00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:10.960
<v Speaker 1>in because there's no longer a risk. It's a market

209
00:11:11.000 --> 00:11:14.679
<v Speaker 1>that's regulated and protected, and the governments are putting in

210
00:11:14.679 --> 00:11:18.080
<v Speaker 1>the guardrails and much more so. Nathan McCaulay, who I've

211
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:21.000
<v Speaker 1>had on the podcast a few times. He's the CEO

212
00:11:21.039 --> 00:11:24.240
<v Speaker 1>and co founder of Anchorage Digital, build the integration as

213
00:11:24.360 --> 00:11:28.279
<v Speaker 1>enabling institutions in DeFi to move at crypto native speed

214
00:11:28.320 --> 00:11:33.200
<v Speaker 1>without compromising security. So among the company's portal wallets clients

215
00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:38.200
<v Speaker 1>are Maple, Finance, Suite, Foundation, and Decentralized Exchange DYDX. Other

216
00:11:38.200 --> 00:11:41.879
<v Speaker 1>companies that have rolled out institutional wallets or platforms include

217
00:11:42.039 --> 00:11:47.360
<v Speaker 1>block Damen, Fireblocks, Consensus, and Fortify. So folks, the on

218
00:11:47.480 --> 00:11:50.279
<v Speaker 1>and off rams being built here for more capital to

219
00:11:50.360 --> 00:11:53.039
<v Speaker 1>come in. Now, we were talking about, you know, all

220
00:11:53.080 --> 00:11:56.480
<v Speaker 1>coin treasury strategies and much more in Defied Development Corporation.

221
00:11:56.559 --> 00:11:59.240
<v Speaker 1>I actually interviewed the CEO last week and I'll be

222
00:11:59.279 --> 00:12:03.519
<v Speaker 1>publishing that into this week. They're using a Salona treasury strategy.

223
00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:06.320
<v Speaker 1>But look at this. Their stock is going on chain

224
00:12:06.440 --> 00:12:09.919
<v Speaker 1>via Kraken Exchange, so they're going to tokenize their stocks

225
00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:13.720
<v Speaker 1>that The company's CEO described its stock tokenization as a

226
00:12:13.840 --> 00:12:17.840
<v Speaker 1>DeFi lego block suggesting it serves as a foundational piece

227
00:12:18.159 --> 00:12:22.559
<v Speaker 1>for decentralized finance adoption. So, you know, we've been talking

228
00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:26.200
<v Speaker 1>at nauseum on this podcast about stocks and equities and

229
00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:29.200
<v Speaker 1>traditional assets going on blockchain, and it's going to create

230
00:12:29.480 --> 00:12:32.360
<v Speaker 1>truly global markets twenty four to seven, three hundred and

231
00:12:32.399 --> 00:12:35.240
<v Speaker 1>sixty five days a year, no more opening and closing bell.

232
00:12:35.399 --> 00:12:37.279
<v Speaker 1>You know, for years we've talked about that, and it's

233
00:12:37.279 --> 00:12:41.080
<v Speaker 1>coming to fruition. So it's pretty amazing to see that

234
00:12:41.120 --> 00:12:43.720
<v Speaker 1>these things are going on chain and it's just going

235
00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:47.360
<v Speaker 1>to open up a lot of new opportunities and investment products,

236
00:12:47.360 --> 00:12:50.080
<v Speaker 1>and it's pretty incredible. So let me give you to

237
00:12:50.120 --> 00:12:53.480
<v Speaker 1>some details here. So Defied Development Corporation, a Salona treasury

238
00:12:53.519 --> 00:12:57.200
<v Speaker 1>company formerly known as jen Over, announced plans to tokenize

239
00:12:57.240 --> 00:13:00.440
<v Speaker 1>the shares through a partnership with crypto exchange Kraken. According

240
00:13:00.440 --> 00:13:03.480
<v Speaker 1>to a Monday announcement, the company will use x stocks,

241
00:13:03.559 --> 00:13:07.879
<v Speaker 1>a tokenization platform created by backt to bring its shares

242
00:13:07.960 --> 00:13:11.320
<v Speaker 1>on chain. Kra Can announce a partnership with x stocks

243
00:13:11.440 --> 00:13:15.519
<v Speaker 1>in May, promising to offer investors tokenize shares of US

244
00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:18.480
<v Speaker 1>listed companies such as Apple, Tesla, and the Video to

245
00:13:18.639 --> 00:13:21.399
<v Speaker 1>users in other regions. The platform is built on the

246
00:13:21.399 --> 00:13:27.879
<v Speaker 1>Salana blockchain. Incredible stuff happening, folks, and this is where you,

247
00:13:28.720 --> 00:13:31.559
<v Speaker 1>as an investor, you can hold a stock for Defied

248
00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:34.919
<v Speaker 1>Development Corp. You can also hold the token of the

249
00:13:35.000 --> 00:13:38.679
<v Speaker 1>Salana blockchain. Right holding the token of the blockchains that

250
00:13:38.679 --> 00:13:40.879
<v Speaker 1>are being used as the rails. That is where you

251
00:13:40.960 --> 00:13:44.039
<v Speaker 1>have the opportunity to take the bet. Unlike previous asset

252
00:13:44.039 --> 00:13:47.279
<v Speaker 1>classes and technology where hedge funds and many folks have

253
00:13:47.320 --> 00:13:50.799
<v Speaker 1>gotten ahead of time, you can participate freely in buy

254
00:13:50.840 --> 00:13:53.440
<v Speaker 1>a fraction. You don't have to go put a minimum

255
00:13:53.440 --> 00:13:55.600
<v Speaker 1>of one hundred thousand dollars or anything. You can buy

256
00:13:55.600 --> 00:13:58.360
<v Speaker 1>literally one hundred bucks of the Salona token, one hundred

257
00:13:58.360 --> 00:14:02.200
<v Speaker 1>bucks of xrpe bitcoin and so forth. So that's the

258
00:14:02.240 --> 00:14:06.559
<v Speaker 1>game changing aspect of this asset class. Now, final news item,

259
00:14:06.679 --> 00:14:11.039
<v Speaker 1>cipher Mining begins bitcoin production at three hundred megawats Black

260
00:14:11.080 --> 00:14:14.960
<v Speaker 1>Pearl Data Center. So we're seeing miners are starting to

261
00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:18.080
<v Speaker 1>ramp up because we're headed, I believe, to the top

262
00:14:18.120 --> 00:14:19.759
<v Speaker 1>of the market. So they're going to look to grab

263
00:14:19.799 --> 00:14:22.559
<v Speaker 1>as much bitcoin, and of course they sell their bitcoin

264
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:25.039
<v Speaker 1>and you know they're going to get transaction fees and

265
00:14:25.120 --> 00:14:28.879
<v Speaker 1>much more so. Cipher Mining has started bitcoin production at

266
00:14:28.919 --> 00:14:33.200
<v Speaker 1>its three hundred megawat Black Pearl facility in Texas, marking

267
00:14:33.240 --> 00:14:36.159
<v Speaker 1>a significant milestone for the company. Phase one of the

268
00:14:36.200 --> 00:14:39.320
<v Speaker 1>Black Pearl site is operating at one hundred and fifty

269
00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:42.879
<v Speaker 1>megawats what's an initial hash rate of two point five

270
00:14:43.039 --> 00:14:46.840
<v Speaker 1>EXA hashes per second, expected to increase to nine point

271
00:14:46.879 --> 00:14:49.679
<v Speaker 1>six extra hashes by the end of the third quarter.

272
00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:53.480
<v Speaker 1>Cipher Mining aims to maintain low production costs and scale

273
00:14:53.519 --> 00:14:57.679
<v Speaker 1>as quickly as competition intensifies in posts having market. So

274
00:14:58.200 --> 00:15:00.840
<v Speaker 1>the race is on and they I wouldn't be doing

275
00:15:00.879 --> 00:15:04.559
<v Speaker 1>this if the bull market wasn't still a thing, right,

276
00:15:04.639 --> 00:15:06.559
<v Speaker 1>or bitcoin was still going to be going up because

277
00:15:06.600 --> 00:15:09.440
<v Speaker 1>these miners they have to be profitable and if they

278
00:15:09.480 --> 00:15:12.279
<v Speaker 1>see a surgeon demands coming the price rising, they're going

279
00:15:12.320 --> 00:15:14.639
<v Speaker 1>to get more fees, more buyers, so they're going to

280
00:15:14.720 --> 00:15:18.000
<v Speaker 1>ramp up here. So expect to see the hash rate

281
00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:22.000
<v Speaker 1>for bitcoin increase significantly. And that's very bullish folks. So

282
00:15:22.519 --> 00:15:25.960
<v Speaker 1>remember have your profit taking plan even if you don't

283
00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:28.720
<v Speaker 1>hold bitcoin. But we know bitcoin leads to the market,

284
00:15:28.759 --> 00:15:30.559
<v Speaker 1>so we're going to use it as a measuring stick

285
00:15:30.639 --> 00:15:33.120
<v Speaker 1>to get an idea where we're at. And while no

286
00:15:33.159 --> 00:15:35.600
<v Speaker 1>one can call the exact top, we want to look

287
00:15:35.600 --> 00:15:37.759
<v Speaker 1>for the top zone and that could be you know,

288
00:15:37.759 --> 00:15:39.720
<v Speaker 1>over a three month period, we can say, hey, look,

289
00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:43.639
<v Speaker 1>signals are flashing that this thing is nearing the top.

290
00:15:43.720 --> 00:15:46.120
<v Speaker 1>So you want to start taking your profits, and like

291
00:15:46.159 --> 00:15:48.039
<v Speaker 1>I said, we want to walk away from this bullmarket

292
00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:51.000
<v Speaker 1>with money in our pockets. I've often shared my strategy

293
00:15:51.240 --> 00:15:53.799
<v Speaker 1>the profits that I take, I will be using the

294
00:15:53.840 --> 00:15:56.799
<v Speaker 1>pay off debt, add to my retirement, spend a little

295
00:15:56.840 --> 00:15:59.679
<v Speaker 1>of course, and then take some of that and reinvest

296
00:15:59.720 --> 00:16:02.480
<v Speaker 1>it in the bloody bear market. So as we start

297
00:16:02.480 --> 00:16:05.279
<v Speaker 1>heading into a beer market and the prices you know,

298
00:16:05.360 --> 00:16:07.360
<v Speaker 1>go down and look, they may not go down to

299
00:16:07.399 --> 00:16:09.919
<v Speaker 1>seventy to eighty percent like we've seen in the previous markets,

300
00:16:09.919 --> 00:16:12.360
<v Speaker 1>because you have ETFs and much more. But maybe it

301
00:16:12.360 --> 00:16:15.840
<v Speaker 1>goes down by fifty percent, right or sixty so not

302
00:16:15.960 --> 00:16:18.360
<v Speaker 1>as deep or maybe less, maybe it goes to forty.

303
00:16:18.679 --> 00:16:20.639
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. We'll just have to wait and see.

304
00:16:20.639 --> 00:16:23.679
<v Speaker 1>We don't have a crystal ball, but nevertheless, want to

305
00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:27.120
<v Speaker 1>take profits off the table and then rinse and repeat.

306
00:16:27.399 --> 00:16:30.159
<v Speaker 1>You know, relative to other asset classes, this is still

307
00:16:30.279 --> 00:16:34.080
<v Speaker 1>very early, so there's still juice to be squeezed out

308
00:16:34.120 --> 00:16:37.480
<v Speaker 1>of this orange, if you know what I mean. And

309
00:16:37.559 --> 00:16:39.679
<v Speaker 1>with legislation in place, you're going to see a lot

310
00:16:39.720 --> 00:16:41.120
<v Speaker 1>of buildings, so there's going to be a lot of

311
00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:44.360
<v Speaker 1>new stuff coming by the time the next bull market arises. Right,

312
00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:47.120
<v Speaker 1>you have, Each cycle has its own narrative. You've seen

313
00:16:47.360 --> 00:16:50.960
<v Speaker 1>icos NFTs AI memes and I'm not a fan of memes,

314
00:16:50.960 --> 00:16:53.720
<v Speaker 1>but you could see a big boom and deepen and

315
00:16:53.759 --> 00:16:57.039
<v Speaker 1>tokenization even further it tokenization as we head into the

316
00:16:57.080 --> 00:16:59.639
<v Speaker 1>next bull market, which is around the next having of

317
00:16:59.679 --> 00:17:03.000
<v Speaker 1>twenty eight. So let's see how this all plays out,

318
00:17:03.039 --> 00:17:05.440
<v Speaker 1>my friends. The important thing is Like I said, we

319
00:17:05.480 --> 00:17:08.599
<v Speaker 1>walk away from this bull market with money in our pockets. Folks,
