- 0:24Good morning everybody. What's up, what's up?
- 0:27What's up? Today is Wednesday, June, 14th.
- 0:30Welcome to Simply Bitcoin. We are your number one source
- 0:33for the peaceful Bitcoin Revolution, we cover breaking
- 0:35news culture and memetic warfare.
- 0:37We being on Big Horn is from all around the world from the
- 0:39biggest names to the everyday Bitcoin.
- 0:41ER we got them all and we will be your guide through the
- 0:45separation of money and state. Apologies for the delay, guys.
- 0:49But you did not understand what kind of BS that me and my Boy,
- 0:53Mike had to deal with to get you a live show today but the show
- 0:57don't stop. And we're still going to hit you
- 1:00with the message. And Today's Show we have a, we
- 1:03have a good theme for you guys. Today, we're seeing in real time
- 1:07that the market is waking up to the idea that there's Bitcoin
- 1:09and then there is crypto. But even further, we're seeing
- 1:12that, the US has pushed too hard with the dollar hegemony and the
- 1:16world is not taking it lightly. We've been covering these
- 1:19grumbles for a long time. We had Janet Yellen said, Quiet
- 1:23part out loud this morning or rather yesterday.
- 1:26And again the writing is on the wall, people are looking for
- 1:29alternatives to the dollar and obviously this is simply
- 1:32Bitcoin. So the answer is simply Bitcoin
- 1:36but only one country has taken the leap and dared to go all in
- 1:40on bitcoin and make it official. So in time, more people are
- 1:44going to wake up to this. But we are seeing that people
- 1:48are not taking the weaponization of the dollar lightly and And
- 1:53man it really is crazy times that we are living in right now.
- 1:57And we are seeing the US bureaucrats saying what we know
- 2:01to be true as bitcoiners, they're continuously saying the
- 2:03silent part out loud and Janet Yellen just said it yesterday,
- 2:08the dollar is in Decline, but they still believe that there is
- 2:11no alternative so you don't need to worry.
- 2:13If you own Bitcoin take Bitcoin in the self, custody run a node
- 2:17and live on the Bitcoin standard.
- 2:19Everything is all gravy. This is why we are simply I'm
- 2:23and finally, it's very interesting that all the art
- 2:27Corners weight. Then finally interesting that
- 2:29all this shit Corners are starting to wake up to what
- 2:32we've been saying for over a decade that there is Bitcoin and
- 2:35there's shit coins. And hey, you know, I know that
- 2:39some people will call a status because we acknowledge the fact
- 2:42that there is some rules of the road and your shit coin does not
- 2:46change the game because it is my new innovation.
- 2:51But hey if you're a It Corner, you're good to go.
- 2:54We're living in crazy times and Men, I wouldn't change it for
- 2:58the world and I am not alone. I do have my boy, Mike Hobart
- 3:02here and we are going to do a master class on why Bitcoin not
- 3:08crypto. I brought up an article that
- 3:10Mike wrote on our sub stack. Here's why we don't crypto and
- 3:14we even brought some receipts some videos.
- 3:17So today might be a little video heavy but when you get the sauce
- 3:21from the horse's mouth, And they expose the game for themselves,
- 3:25I think it makes what we say. A lot, a lot more, not only
- 3:30interesting, but hit harder. So this isn't just, you know,
- 3:33some toxic Bitcoin Maxi saying this and, you know, Schilling,
- 3:37our bags and talking our bags. This is the game and me and Mike
- 3:41were actually having this conversation before I ran into
- 3:44issues on the back end. But as bitcoiners, we're just
- 3:48like the crazy guy's at the beginning of the meat grinder.
- 3:51Like, hey guys, listen. To us.
- 3:53We're trying to protect you from yourselves and they're like,
- 3:54yeah, shut up. You stupid.
- 3:56Toxic Maxi. You don't know what you're
- 3:57talking about? This time is different.
- 4:00My shit coin is different in. We're like bro we've done this
- 4:03before. We've been here for a while and
- 4:05we're just trying to protect you from yourself.
- 4:07So we got a lot of receipt for you guys today.
- 4:09But anyways, Mike, how you doing?
- 4:10How stressed out are you, are you the same stressed out that I
- 4:13am? Or are you chilling?
- 4:14Now, dude, I'm on. I'm on cloud nine after the
- 4:18stress because like we were chilling.
- 4:20We were having a Greek like, Anti-government anti-censorship.
- 4:24Hey, don't say they're gonna cut us in half again and then they
- 4:27shut us down for 10 minutes after 10 20 minutes to make a
- 4:30squeal. But like we are absolutely.
- 4:34We're I got was telling Opti before all that nonsense popped
- 4:38off, its like us bitcoiners were the were the crazy Vietnam vets
- 4:42of sayings like hey, like everything is not as it seems
- 4:46and you should not be trusting anything.
- 4:48We're the crazy Vietnam Vets before Kicked off because once
- 4:532020, kicked off all Vietnam Vets got Vindicated in my
- 4:57opinion and now like we're just as far as bitcoiners were just
- 5:00we're going through our Vietnam veteran.
- 5:03And I think this, I think what we're about to we're about to
- 5:06talk about is probably I would hope is going to be the
- 5:08beginning of people waking up and realizing yeah, 100% agree.
- 5:12Well, let's get into it bro. The Bitcoin members brought to
- 5:18you by not all at this point, you should be running your own
- 5:21Bitcoin note. If you don't use your own
- 5:23Bitcoin node, you're trusting someone else is run your own
- 5:26version of Bitcoin core. The lightning Network,
- 5:29whirlpool, and Dojo all from the comfort of your own home.
- 5:33And if your digital Nomad, you have absolutely no excuse
- 5:36because now you can run a novel through a virtual private
- 5:39server. Visit noddle Dottie you today of
- 5:42course of course. Of course guys before we get
- 5:44into the numbers Yes. We want to tell you guys about
- 5:47Bitcoin 2024. They need to update their
- 5:50website. It's going to be a Nashville
- 5:51July 25th 27th 2024, it is literally a year away.
- 5:55The only reason we're telling you guys about this now is
- 5:58because we are sick and tired of you guys complaining about the
- 6:00price. Well, we're telling you today so
- 6:03that you can get an early ticket.
- 6:04You guys are all going to say the same thing when the
- 6:07conference comes around. Oh man, I wish I went to the
- 6:10conference but the tickets are so high, we'll get them today.
- 6:13It is 499 for the general admission pass.
- 6:16And if you want to get in Bitcoin industry pass, it is
- 6:19what a $1200 for the three days pass everyone that you know, and
- 6:24love will either be at the conference around the
- 6:27conference. We are taking over Nashville in
- 6:30July of next year. And I think we are going to be
- 6:34pleasantly happy next year. When we all take over Nashville
- 6:38because I am still convinced that we are heading out of this
- 6:41bear market, so get your ticket today so you do not complain.
- 6:45Hey, Even if you don't go you can flip it guys, but you want
- 6:48to get to the conference. Anyways, let's get into the
- 6:50numbers. Of course, we are over here on
- 6:52Clark Moody's dashboard and we're going to start with my
- 6:56favorite number which is the block height all-time high and
- 6:59block height. It's almost like the Bitcoin
- 7:01Network continues to work Tick. Tock next block we are currently
- 7:04at 790 4327 all-time high and block height, the SATs per
- 7:10dollar aka the Moscow time AKA how much Bitcoin you can buy for
- 7:14a single dollar. Currently at 3851 sets, the
- 7:19current bitcoin price is 25 thousand.
- 7:21Nine hundred seventy wow. Literally, I never look at the
- 7:25Bitcoin price until we talk about this on the show.
- 7:28Wow, we're at 25k right now. Hopefully we start inch back out
- 7:32getting absolutely raft again because of all the shit Corners,
- 7:36amazing. Chicken is make us all look bad.
- 7:38Anyways, the total amount of Bitcoin, the percentage issued
- 7:42is currently at ninety two point three nine percent the market
- 7:45Capitalization and Fiat dirty Fiat, dollars at 500 and 3.9
- 7:49billion dollars. The realized monetary inflation
- 7:52taking Fiat currencies to school is 1.75 percent.
- 7:56The Bitcoin Bush gold market cap is three point nine, two percent
- 8:00and anyone that still thinks they are late to bitcoin.
- 8:05Bitcoin isn't even 5% of the gold market cabin.
- 8:08I think that is besides getting over the one trillion dollar
- 8:11market cap again. I think the next, the next mark
- 8:15on the toll is beating the gold market cab.
- 8:19Anyway, the total capacity in the lightning that were the
- 8:21total public capacity. 5390 2.2 BTC with a public reachable
- 8:26Bitcoin nodes of 17,000 and 96. And the hash rate.
- 8:30The last 90 days is 353. .4 x. A hashes, I think this one, I
- 8:34don't know. We're Clark mood, he's getting
- 8:35his hash rate numbers from, but I've been seeing some metrics
- 8:39that it might be over 400 x ashes, obviously, we don't know,
- 8:43but it's going parabolic. Anyways, the blocks to clear is
- 8:4857 blocks to clear with a pending fees of 5.99 BTC.
- 8:52Wait? I thought the Wizards broke
- 8:54Bitcoin. What is going on?
- 8:55Apparently Bitcoin is unaffected and this is just how the Bitcoin
- 8:59network works. Anyways, this is the numbers I
- 9:02do have a video for you guys but but this is a number so I do
- 9:07hope. I do want to kind of preface the
- 9:12video that I'm going to play. It is a video of Gary Gensler.
- 9:17In the past, I am pretty sure it is at his MIT class and he very
- 9:22clearly lays out the game when it comes to a theorem that there
- 9:26is a foundation that there is a head to Shop Chop off and that
- 9:29Bitcoin is different. And we've been covering this the
- 9:33last couple of weeks when we The the case in the suit in against
- 9:38finance, and it shows that what we got here, 19 tokens,
- 9:44according to the SEC are unregistered Securities.
- 9:46So just to name them again for you guys that might for some
- 9:49reason still not be Bitcoin only, we got 88 car, don't know,
- 9:54we got algo, we got Adam, we got a excess, we got by Nance,
- 9:59what's it? B, & B by Nance token.
- 10:01We got by Nance USD. We got chz, we got Cody, we got
- 10:05Dash, we got file coin, we got flow.
- 10:08We got ICP monitor Ematic near neck, so, sand and Solana and
- 10:15vgx. Anyways, just to give you guys a
- 10:18little update before I give you guys the video, we did Cover the
- 10:23by Nance suit on Monday, I believe.
- 10:26And we just heard yesterday that finance and SEC have until
- 10:30tomorrow to figure out what they're going to do to
- 10:34compromise. Eyes on whether the by Nance
- 10:37assets will be frozen or not. But you can see here the New
- 10:40York Times. Greatest yellow journalism in
- 10:44the game Finance part with us Regulators over asset freeze, a
- 10:47judge urge the Securities and Exchange Commission to reach a
- 10:49compromise with finance, that would allow the world's largest
- 10:52crypto currency exchange to continue operating in the United
- 10:55States, going to spare you from all of this article.
- 10:59But we have right here at the very bottom, the SEC said in
- 11:01court papers, that none of its moves should have come as a
- 11:04surprise. As to buying it and its chief
- 11:06executive CZ who is also a target of the lawsuit.
- 11:09Defendants knew that the constant with respect to us
- 11:12investors with the legal and risk US.
- 11:14Government enforcement actions, the SEC said in a filing instead
- 11:17of seizing such illegal activity, CZ and finance double
- 11:20down. Anyways to give you a little
- 11:22wrap up on the case at the end of the hearing which lasted
- 11:25roughly 90 minutes, judge action, suggested, both sides,
- 11:28come to an agreement on the SE c--'s request to freeze assets
- 11:31as soon as possible. Anyways that was just to give A
- 11:34little update on the finance case and of course, which shit
- 11:39coins are considered unregistered Securities
- 11:42according to the SEC. But as I said in the opener we
- 11:46have a running theme on today's show and it is Bitcoin and not
- 11:50crypto and again Mike is going to give you a master class on
- 11:54why we don't touch crypto but I know most people think that we
- 11:59are biased bitcoiners, you know that we're talking our bags that
- 12:03that were toxic Taxis and we're against Innovation and you know
- 12:08much Innovation my blockchain and Bitcoin is old and my you
- 12:13know Bitcoin is mine all the narratives you've heard for a
- 12:15while. Well this is why we tell you
- 12:18guys it is simply Bitcoin, there's Bitcoin in their shit.
- 12:20Coin is because anyone with any understanding of what's going on
- 12:24over here, understand one simple thing, there's Bitcoin and
- 12:27there's shit coins and everything that isn't Bitcoin is
- 12:31essentially not destined to. Make it through the storm and
- 12:36again, Nico and I say it. Mike and I are going to say it
- 12:40on the show but I think it has more weight when it comes from
- 12:44someone that isn't quote-unquote Bitcoin Maxi but he's saying the
- 12:48same exact thing that we're saying.
- 12:49So it's not just our lenses. It's not just a maxi land, it's
- 12:53not just us talking our bags. It's not our Bitcoin bias.
- 12:56This is just the understanding that anyone that doesn't have a
- 13:00heavy bag that is confusing them understand.
- 13:03So let's get It into this GG clip right here, because he says
- 13:07what we say all the time, and of course, before you call me a
- 13:10status. I know.
- 13:12I know, Gary, Gensler worked for the SEC, and you can't trust him
- 13:15farther than you can throw. But still there is laws here
- 13:20guys. And of course, of course, you
- 13:22know, shit coins, can go around the world.
- 13:24The US isn't the Arbiter of the world, but there is a berry real
- 13:30thread going on right now. That shit coins are probably
- 13:32dead in the US. Who knows?
- 13:34How long This will take, but the writing is clear, you want to be
- 13:37holding Bitcoin because Bitcoin has differentiated itself from
- 13:41shit coins in the very beginning before it was Unleashed into the
- 13:45world. And this is why Bitcoin will
- 13:47succeed. And this is why Bitcoin is are
- 13:48always like. Yeah, come and take it, you
- 13:50know, Bitcoin is antifragile. I want you to mess with the
- 13:53Bitcoin Network, to prove our thesis that we are correct.
- 13:56Anyway, let's listen to Gigi and then we'll talk about this.
- 14:00Inherently pretty difficult thing to regulate.
- 14:02I mean nothing without centers inherently hard to.
- 14:05Well, we'll see. I'm going to challenge that a
- 14:07little bit. Most of this does have a center
- 14:11so Satoshi nakamoto's eight-page paper.
- 14:16There was put out on a cypherpunk email list.
- 14:21That's kind of centered in a more decentralized conceptual
- 14:25framework and maybe a Libertarian framework but by and
- 14:30large the thousands of crypto tokens that have come since or
- 14:36highly. Centralized etherium is centered
- 14:42around the etherium foundation of italic Buddha, rat and a team
- 14:46of developers, they're 70 people that work at the theater and
- 14:48foundation, not all of whom are Developers.
- 14:51But, you know, Okay. Well also I think this week the
- 14:59SEC was going to have a conversation with metallic but I
- 15:03think the signal here is guys. I know I've said in the past,
- 15:07Gary Gensler, he's not a friend to bitcoin even though I know he
- 15:10understands what is going on in the space.
- 15:12He did teach a class in regards to blockchain at MIT.
- 15:17I know he's a lot smarter than he is portraying right now.
- 15:20I know he understands that there is Bitcoin in their shit coin
- 15:23but he said Very clearly and I wish I had a date for this but
- 15:26it was just making its rounds on Twitter.
- 15:28But I'm pretty sure this was before, he was heading the SEC,
- 15:33and he very clearly understands that everything besides Bitcoin
- 15:36has a center, he obviously picked on eith right there
- 15:39because everyone knows about the East foundation, how they
- 15:41control the network, but he very clearly made a differentiation
- 15:46between Bitcoin and shit. Coined between Satoshi, leaving
- 15:50the network between the fact that every What do you say?
- 15:54Thousands of shit coins. Have a board, a corporation.
- 15:57If you can cut the head off, they will.
- 16:00And this is what we're seeing right now.
- 16:02Of course, right now, we're at the the point in the race where
- 16:05they're not going to go to Every coin yet and cut the head off,
- 16:08they're going to the exchanges. So what do we as bitcoiners?
- 16:11Keep telling you you want to be holding Bitcoin.
- 16:14Only you want to take Bitcoin off the exchanges so that you
- 16:16can protect yourself from this kind of crazy stuff because hey
- 16:19I know it seems like bitcoiners are cheering on regulation right
- 16:23now but I Trust politicians, I don't trust the SEC farther than
- 16:26I can throw them and it's only a matter of time until they really
- 16:29do try to attack Bitcoin and Bitcoin owners.
- 16:32So I am protecting myself up front and me and Mike were
- 16:35having this conversation before we went live that Bitcoin was
- 16:40set up in such a way to bypass, all of these laws and everything
- 16:44else. Basically shot themselves in the
- 16:46foot from the jump. And this is what we're going to
- 16:48jump in on the culture, but this video really does make me
- 16:53wonder. Under what Gary's incentives are
- 16:56now because I've said in the past, of course, I'm the
- 16:58paranoid Bitcoin her on the show.
- 17:00I'm though, I'm the in-house resident tinfoil hat, bit,
- 17:03coiner of Simply Bitcoin, and it really makes me suspect of
- 17:08again, slurs incentives. It seems like he is playing
- 17:11cover for the Legacy banking institutions.
- 17:15And I think yesterday Mike were we not in the space is talking
- 17:18about how he this', the reigning fed coin.
- 17:21And obviously, it's You know, slithering it to way through
- 17:25regulation and trying to Lobby, its way, so that it becomes that
- 17:29regulated Federated fed coin, so that, you know, it's the banking
- 17:33coin from from the jump and it's endorsed by the institutions
- 17:36that be, and probably will be pinned against Bitcoin and made
- 17:40bitcoiners and Bitcoin to be the bad guy.
- 17:43Anyways, Mike, what's your thoughts on on that video and
- 17:45maybe in General on what's going on before we get into the news?
- 17:51Yeah, that video I mean for me is asking my opinion on that
- 17:55video is like, it doesn't really do much just because like
- 18:00Genzler's opinions have been pretty public in my opinion for
- 18:04years, like, ever since, like, people have been circulating the
- 18:10MIT lectures and all that stuff, like I'm of the opinion aligned
- 18:15with yourself, you like your own, like, he knows what he's
- 18:18doing, he knows what he's talking about, but I also don't
- 18:23trust him. I think that there's there's
- 18:25going to be he's going to have incentives that we either are
- 18:29aware of or were just ignorant to, and Ultimately like you
- 18:36said, I want to reiterate what I said in the space is yesterday
- 18:40with you guys in Brandon than the others and Nate and take the
- 18:44ride bitcoiners aren't sharing this on as far as being status.
- 18:49Like, we're glad that there's some sort of regulatory body to
- 18:52take out the shit coins or the altcoins that we don't like and
- 18:56we haven't like since the beginning.
- 19:00We are just finally cheering them on for doing there.
- 19:04Bleeping job, you know, like I wanted wanted to say it so bad
- 19:08but I don't want to get the the channel band.
- 19:12Like they're just finally doing their job like that.
- 19:14Like that's it I'm not cheering on the state.
- 19:18Like I don't think that I think that there's a lot of Burden
- 19:23that regulatory bodies like the suc invite, but bitcoiners need
- 19:27to also accept that. I don't know if you guys have
- 19:30ever attended a garden but if you don't weed the garden
- 19:34properly or if you don't we did it in a correct manner.
- 19:39There is a way where if like the weeds can take over and cause
- 19:45the garden to completely just die to the point where it goes
- 19:48to a reset More, Everything dies, Or it's just weeds left.
- 19:52And there's there's no capability for anything of
- 19:55substance to break through and actually grow to fruition.
- 19:58So, like there needs to be a purging fire.
- 20:01And honestly, I don't think that this is going to ultimately
- 20:03Purge crypto out of the US or the world.
- 20:06It's like the next stage for crypto in the u.s. is just going
- 20:09to be safe sponsored I wonder which coin that will be my.
- 20:19Can you the idea that you told me before the show about, like
- 20:23the laws were there before? Bitcoin even got, even got
- 20:27issued and everyone every shit corner, just like, tried to
- 20:31avoid those laws and it just like, it's incredible that.
- 20:34Now they're complaining about it.
- 20:36Yeah. I mean the Securities Law has
- 20:37been around for how many decades there's around for decades
- 20:41before. Or crypto was a thing.
- 20:43It was round decades before Bitcoin wasn't thing and then
- 20:46Bitcoin was designed to like you said, earlier is designed to
- 20:50circumvent a lot of that stuff in the sense of not. not in the
- 20:54sense of like illegal or criminal activity, but just
- 20:59trying to provide something that wasn't a security for this exact
- 21:02reason and then he's crypto project spring up after Bitcoin
- 21:06establishes itself as being a relative success and They're all
- 21:12engaging in activity than like passes the Howey test and makes
- 21:17them a security and they're trying to argue that it's not a
- 21:18security like oh this is a financial Innovations like no
- 21:21it's not, this is not Financial Innovation and this is something
- 21:26we'll get into when I talk about my article but I move the
- 21:32position which I think a lot of us are that 99.999% of these
- 21:36projects do not provide an actual legitimate.
- 21:40Substantiative service to anybody.
- 21:43It's just, it's just the financialization project.
- 21:46And we're going to play a clip that explains that.
- 21:48Exactly, yeah, 100%. And I brought the meme on this
- 21:53week, and I was telling Mike about it in before the show is,
- 21:56it was an RD Meme and he said, do not ask a woman, her age, a
- 22:00man, his salary, or a shit Corner.
- 22:02What a security is because they they don't understand what's
- 22:06going on. Okay?
- 22:08Okay. Don't want to know why.
- 22:10And I feel like we could talk about this all day because we
- 22:13had this conversation in the beginning.
- 22:14It's, it's incredible. That people are so blind to this
- 22:19mind blind. And I was asking you, I'm like,
- 22:21is it because of their heavy bags?
- 22:23Is it because they just don't want to believe it?
- 22:25Like, what is going on in these peoples in these people's minds
- 22:29to just completely avoid like the truth.
- 22:32It's just like an ostrich digging this head in the sand
- 22:35and like nope, my shit coin is different.
- 22:37It's not a security and it's like, yes, We yeah we did.
- 22:42We just we discussed this is that I'm asking the audience now
- 22:49because I've already stopped you, I know his answer.
- 22:51How many of us were taught about what sunk cost bias is in high
- 22:56school or in college? I wasn't taught it.
- 22:59I didn't learn what sunk cause bias was to the point of where I
- 23:01actually could conceptualize it until I started learning about
- 23:04Bitcoin six seven years ago, six years ago, so like, and they're
- 23:09in therein lies the problem. Because how many of us I
- 23:12guarantee everybody that's watching right now.
- 23:14Are they watches in the future son?
- 23:16Cause bias is where you don't want to give up on something,
- 23:19just because of the amount of time, effort and resources, you
- 23:22have dedicated towards that thing.
- 23:25How many of us have engaged in that with our personal
- 23:28relationships, which is friendship family and love
- 23:31interest? How many of us have kept those
- 23:35parasitic toxic relationships around just because they've been
- 23:39around for a long time. We've all done it.
- 23:42How many of us have hobbies and habits that we know are
- 23:45detrimental to our own success in our own dreams, but we keep
- 23:49doing them just because they have been a consistent pillar in
- 23:52our life. This includes drinking, this
- 23:54includes smoking, cigarettes include smoking, too much weed.
- 23:58All of it, we've all done it. But how many of us are taught
- 24:02about like that being a problem or even what that is?
- 24:07And then like, when you're having these conversations with
- 24:09nor means, you have, to be able to understand that, a lot of
- 24:12people aren't even aware of that bias in their life.
- 24:16Like they don't understand why they are making it because like
- 24:19so much of their time effort, and financial resources are
- 24:22going into things that don't make any sense.
- 24:24As far as like what the goals that they're trying to achieve
- 24:28roof too much sauce on today's show, we're getting into a
- 24:32self-help Guru on this one but let's get into the news, let's

- 25:26Our back ends acting weird today, guys, but it's working
- 25:29working well enough. But anyways, before I get into
- 25:32the news, of course, we want to give a shout-out to our sponsor.

- 26:27right now. Stack friends, who Stacks.
- 26:28That's okay. Getting into the news.
- 26:32I know today's news is really focused on Janet Yellen.
- 26:36Admitting and saying the quiet part out loud that the dollar is
- 26:39in Decline. But for those people that aren't
- 26:42watching, simply Bitcoin every single day, I want to give you
- 26:44guys some contacts because we've been seeing this.
- 26:46We've been covering this for a long time on the show.
- 26:49That's the idea of the u.s. using the dollar weaponizing the
- 26:54dollar. And I think they have pushed a
- 26:57little too hard and people are waking up, that people are
- 27:00asking themselves. Is there an alternative, but
- 27:03most people are still a part of The cargo cult that is Fiat
- 27:08currencies and they're looking around.
- 27:10And what are they thinking to themselves?
- 27:12They're like, hey, I don't like the US dollar.
- 27:14I don't like this fiat currency. So what I'm going to do, I'm
- 27:16going to find another fiat currency and we're just going to
- 27:19rehash this whole circus, one more time.
- 27:22But anyways, here we have this article here on cbc.ca and it
- 27:26goes brics nations take on US dollar and Western dominance.
- 27:30And we've been covering this for a long time.
- 27:31You know the brics Nations have been posturing that they're
- 27:33going to drop the US dollar we've even seen Some oil being
- 27:37settled in the dollar but the big story of yesterday was Janet
- 27:44Yellen saying the quiet part out loud.
- 27:46So I'm going to cover this article here.
- 27:48And then I do have some extra, some extra sauce in here to make
- 27:52our Point, even stronger. But treasury secretary Janet
- 27:55Yellen. And this is Market Insider
- 27:56markets on Business Insider and it goes treasury secretary.
- 27:59Janet Yellen, says, to expect a gradual decline in the dollar
- 28:03share of global reserves. But Greenback Maine's dominant.
- 28:07So very interesting that she says, the dollar is losing its
- 28:12dominance in the world, but hey, it's never been stronger.
- 28:15Which is a, it's a very interesting place that we are
- 28:18right now. Anyways, treasury secretary
- 28:19Janet Yellen, said to expect a gradual decline in the dollar
- 28:22share of gold reserves. Her comments were in response to
- 28:25D. Dollarization questions during a
- 28:27congressional hearing and she also said, the dollar will
- 28:29remain dominant. As most countries have no
- 28:32alternative. That is the signal.
- 28:34They are saying the same thing all the time.
- 28:36Time that hey, you don't like the dollar.
- 28:39Well, what else are you going to go to?
- 28:41And of course, here at simply Bitcoin.
- 28:43We're like, hey guys, have you ever heard about Bitcoin?
- 28:45This is probably where you should go.
- 28:47We have one country that, done it, El Salvador and it's
- 28:51noticeably undeniably improve their country.
- 28:54Anyways, let's get into this article.
- 28:56The US should expect the dollar share of global reserves to
- 29:00slowly decline, but no, Alternatives exist.
- 29:03That could completely displaced. The Greenback says, He secretary
- 29:07Janet Yellen on Tuesday, her comments came during a housing
- 29:10Financial Services Committee in response to questions about the
- 29:13risk of d. Dollarization a spiral
- 29:16representative Warren Davidson Republican of Ohio on whether us
- 29:20sanctions could impact our transactions.
- 29:22Yellen acknowledge that their use had motivated some countries
- 29:26to look for currency alternative, but the dollar
- 29:28plays the role it does in the world financial system, for very
- 29:31good reasons that no other country is able to replicate
- 29:34including China and that is We have deep liquid, open financial
- 29:38markets, strong rule of law and an absence of capital controls
- 29:41that. No country is able to replicate.
- 29:43It would not be easy for any country, to devise a way to get
- 29:48around the dollar. Yeah, another fiat currency is
- 29:52what so what do we say all the time on the show, you cannot fix
- 29:55the system by playing within the system and this is why Bitcoin
- 29:59is that roundabout way. Anyways let's get into this
- 30:01article a little further than it goes later Representative
- 30:04Vincent cans Alles further inquired.
- 30:06Whether the US should slow down the use of sanctions noting that
- 30:09even traditionally Allied Nations, such as France had
- 30:12recently made non dollar transactions.
- 30:14I would say, there's virtually no meaningful work around for
- 30:17most countries for using the dollar as a reserve currency
- 30:20yelling replied, ask whether dollars.
- 30:22International status is diminishing.
- 30:24She noted growing diversification within Reserve
- 30:27asset something that can be anticipated in the growing
- 30:30global economy. We should expect over time May
- 30:32gradually increase share of other assets and Reserve
- 30:35Holdings of He's a natural desire to diversify, but the
- 30:38dollar is Far and Away the dominant Reserve asset, the US
- 30:42Dollars Reserve. Status has gradually eroded for
- 30:45two decades and here's a link and I brought it up here for you
- 30:48guys to to get those headlines as well.
- 30:50The dollars dominant at the reserve currency eroded last
- 30:53year at 10 times, the pay seen in the past two decades.
- 30:56And there's a point in here where it says in a Monday note
- 30:59strategist, Joanna frere and Steven Jen calculated the
- 31:03Greenback accounted for about two-thirds of total global 2003
- 31:07than 55 percent by 2021 and 47 percent last year and that last
- 31:13year with 2022. So even though we saw Steve
- 31:17decline in 2022, even though it's strengthen International
- 31:20Trade remains unchallenged, other reports are pointed
- 31:24towards an upsurge and foreign central banks demand for gold as
- 31:27another way to reduce the Reliance on dollar reserves
- 31:29again, I brought that link up for you guys as well.
- 31:31And this one is quoting China, stretch its gold buying spree
- 31:34into the seventh straight Month. In May signaling more Central
- 31:37Bank D dollarization and we continuously covered the story
- 31:41of the world is looking for an alternative to the dollar
- 31:45because the US has weaponized a dollar and we are seeing right
- 31:49now that it definitely seems like, you know, Jay A Powell is
- 31:53out there, trying to bankrupt the rest of the world holding
- 31:56treasuries us. Lawmakers aren't helping the
- 31:58dollars, cause yelling suggested earlier, in the hearing
- 32:01iterated, her long-standing concern, over the US, debt
- 32:04ceiling crisis, saying it, undermines Global faith in the
- 32:06nation's ability to meet its debt obligations deteriorating,
- 32:09the greenback's reputation. Okay, well further in this
- 32:14hearing jealous Janet Yellen got asked about the concern whether
- 32:20China would dump all of the US Treasury.
- 32:22And if I remember correctly it was 850 billion dollars of
- 32:26treasuries and Congress was asking her whether she was
- 32:30concerned about it. What what should people be
- 32:32doing? And again, Janet Yellen just has
- 32:34no answer for this, it's really amazing that Janet Yellen is
- 32:37even in this position right now because it seems like you had
- 32:42great faucet like granny going, something I don't mean to, you
- 32:46know, be an ages here. But it's just it's it's
- 32:50absolutely incredible that the geriatric class Out there is
- 32:53telling us how to run the world, and they are digging their head
- 32:57in the sand and avoiding the very real real alternative that
- 33:03is Bitcoin. Anyways, again on this same
- 33:06thread yesterday, as well, president of Kenya, encourages
- 33:11African nations to dump the US dollar for trade and go for
- 33:13local trade. But of course, what do we say
- 33:16all the time? Yeah, one fiat currency is not
- 33:18going to fix another fiat currency.
- 33:20And again, I know you guys are all blocked by Beauty.
- 33:22On. But Beauty on I think hits it
- 33:25very well with this tweet because he's very foolish.
- 33:27Africans are moving from one cargo cult to another instead of
- 33:30breaking totally free, they appear to be rejecting the
- 33:33dollar but what they're doing is trying to reproduce the Eurozone
- 33:36Central Bank with the app for exam Bank, what they should do
- 33:40is abolish the idea of central clearing Banks entirely
- 33:43LeapFrog. The West is El Salvador's doing
- 33:45and Go full Bitcoin. This will ensure all Africans
- 33:48can access to sound money on simple platforms and Free
- 33:52Africa. And from keynesianism, the last
- 33:55colonizer and I got a damn even here for you guys.
- 34:00You can see here the world Reserve currencies for the last,
- 34:04what? 750 years we had the Dutch.
- 34:06We had the British and we can see right now and we're seeing
- 34:10it in real time that the u.s. Dollar World Reserve currency
- 34:14status is on the decline. And of course, as bitcoiners we
- 34:18know what the alternative is. It is Bitcoin.
- 34:20It is simply Bitcoin and Bitcoin door.
- 34:22Reserve currency status is on the rise but most people are
- 34:26still clearly asleep at the wheel.
- 34:29They think that Bitcoin you know it can't work.
- 34:34They think that the solution is more Central Banking.
- 34:37They think the solution to Fiat currencies is another fiat
- 34:40currency or going into your local currency and it's just
- 34:45clearly broken economics. And they're just, they're saying
- 34:49the quiet part out loud. Do we know what the timeline is
- 34:51here? No.
- 34:52No. I'm convinced that they can
- 34:54probably kick, the can down the road a lot longer than us
- 34:57bitcoiners are willing to admit. We will most likely be on a
- 35:02Dollar World, Reserve currency standard for a lot longer than
- 35:04bitcoiners are willing to admit, but the writing is clearly on
- 35:08the wall and the fact that Janet Yellen is talking about this.
- 35:11The fact that Jay Powell and every other bureaucrat out,
- 35:15there is scared of D dollarization just shows that
- 35:19imagine the conversations are having on the back end on this.
- 35:22You can tell that there is a berry real real currency war
- 35:26going on. And we've been covering this for
- 35:28a long time. We've been bringing the receipts
- 35:30on the show a lot and people have been giving us kind of
- 35:33flak. They're like all the dollars
- 35:34going to maintain it power for a long time and it's like, yeah,
- 35:37we understand this but I think the cracks are showing and the
- 35:42world is looking for an alternative and of course, at
- 35:45Sibley Bitcoin. What are we going to say?
- 35:47The answer is simply Bitcoin. And hopefully other countries
- 35:51will wake up to this. We've been seeing grumblings
- 35:53around the world that people are adopting Bitcoin, of course, as
- 35:57a Bitcoin, as a Libertarian. You know, we don't really need
- 36:00more legal tender legal, tender status, like El Salvador per se,
- 36:04but we do need a very real Grassroots movement of people
- 36:08adopting Bitcoin. And this is what we tell you
- 36:11guys every single day. The most important thing we can
- 36:13be doing is getting Bitcoin into people's hands holding Bitcoin,
- 36:17taking Bitcoin off exchanges peer-to-peer Economies and all
- 36:21that good stuff. But anyways, I am the absolutely
- 36:24bullish AF. Bitcoin are over here and Mike
- 36:27is usually a little more sober headed than me.
- 36:29So Mike, what's your thoughts on D?
- 36:32Dollarization right now? And, and furthermore on yellen's
- 36:36admittance that the dollar is losing its status in the world.
- 36:40Oh, I lost them wrecked. Okay, well, we'll get them back
- 36:46in here but sheesh Crazy, crazy, crazy stuff.
- 36:52Okay. Let me let me text him real
- 36:55quick and get him on here but absolutely crazy.

- 37:06moving. We do this live, we do this
- 37:08live. All right, one second.
- 37:14Crazy craziness. All right, anyways.
- 37:18We're going to move into the next, the next portion.
- 37:23Here he is. Here he is.
- 37:31Whatever we're moving into the next portion.
- 37:34Mike, if you can hear me, jump back in.

- 38:45details again guys. I know you guys.
- 38:48You plebs in the audience always say man just get spot Bitcoin
- 38:52but I think what a lot of people don't realize is you need to
- 38:54zoom out and there's levels to this game a bit coin and if you
- 39:00have money in the traditional Financial system think the best
- 39:03way to get some exposure. Before you go fully all in on
- 39:06bitcoin is the swan IRA and shouts out to the boys over at
- 39:10Swan continuously killing it. Anyways.
- 39:14Wait wait wait. Before we go in Mike when you
- 39:18jumped off did you hear the D? Dollarization talk.
- 39:21What's your thoughts on that real quick and then we'll jump
- 39:23into this bit. Yeah.
- 39:27I have a pretty complex opinion because I agree that the dollar
- 39:33like that we are D Dollar Rising, I agree that the D
- 39:38dollars ation is going to take longer than a lot of bitcoiners
- 39:42expect. But I also think it'll be faster
- 39:46than a lot of the rest of us, think because I've ranted about
- 39:51it before, in the sense of when we're talking about like the,
- 39:56whether it's the collapse of the The American Empire or the
- 39:59collapse of the Dollar Empire, a lot of people like to harken
- 40:03back to like the Roman Empire is an example.
- 40:07Now you can't really do that, just like just for for one
- 40:11simple reason and that's the rate of communication that we
- 40:15have today the capability to sprout, new ideas, spread new
- 40:21ideas and engage new ideas is Hundreds of thousands of times
- 40:27faster than it was back during the Roman Empire.
- 40:30And that makes for the possibility of D Dollar Rising
- 40:37today, radically faster than anybody wants to compare two or
- 40:42thinks that they know. So like while we can say it's
- 40:44going to be around a lot longer than a lot of bitcoiners want to
- 40:48accept, it's probably going to happen a lot faster than we
- 40:51could ever imagine. And then there was there was
- 40:56another point and then the world economic Forum, taking me out
- 41:00interrupted my thought process and I wanted to have.
- 41:02But there's there was there was a there was another Point as far
- 41:07as we can just keep going and then I can bring it back up
- 41:09later so I don't have to keep just stalling like on okay.
- 41:13Perfect. Yeah, no worries.
- 41:14Okay, well we do have this article here, it was on our sub
- 41:19stack Mike's, been killing it on our sub stack and this one is
- 41:22called, we don't touch crypto. Here's why.
- 41:24And before I just let you unleash on this one, you said to
- 41:29bring up a point and we brought it up in the beginning and I was
- 41:33trolling all the all Corners out there all the shit Corners out.
- 41:36There is like hey bro, my financial Innovation bro, like
- 41:39move, fast and break things, bro.
- 41:40Like, you know, Bitcoin is my space bro.
- 41:43Like, you know crypto isn't improving on bitcoin bro and all
- 41:47of his bitcoiners like yeah. Yeah, we've heard it all before
- 41:51and I don't think there's much fun.
- 41:54Innovation, so if you want to start there, I do have clips and
- 41:57stuff here. So if you want to T me up for
- 42:00whenever you want to play a clip, I will T those up from you
- 42:03and we can get those going. If you actually actually Sparks
- 42:06the the inspiration to bring up what I was going to bring up to.
- 42:10So like with like the firstly, before I get into what I thought
- 42:13you just brought up. If you guys still like talking
- 42:17about trying to change the system from within the system, I
- 42:21hope a lot of you have seen the movie Moneyball because Is what
- 42:24Africa is doing. And what beauty ons point was,
- 42:27was that they aren't when you're a small player in a big players
- 42:32world, like, you can't play by the big by the big players
- 42:36ruleset or their capabilities week.
- 42:38Like, you're just going to lose every single time and money.
- 42:41Ball is a great example of that of a real life example of that.
- 42:45Where is a small baseball team? They can't afford to compare
- 42:49with like the Yankees. Like they don't have the assets
- 42:52or the capability to be able to do.
- 42:54What the Yankees can do. So when you're in an underdog
- 42:57scenario like that you have to approach the game completely
- 43:01differently. Africa is not doing that with
- 43:03that, with what, with what op you just talked about from.
- 43:06Like you Deion's Point Africa is not doing that.
- 43:09They're trying to they're trying to play the Fiat game by playing
- 43:12by the Fiat rules and you don't get to do that.
- 43:15If you're not like a massive country already like it just
- 43:18doesn't make sense. Like that's why time is doing
- 43:21what they're doing. Because they can, they believe
- 43:23that they can afford to Like do what?
- 43:25America is the new like China's the great iterator.
- 43:27They're not the great innovator, America is and the problem like
- 43:32so like when you're seeing these other areas trying to do this
- 43:35they're not going to effectively accomplish anything at least in
- 43:38my opinion. That's the way that goes but
- 43:41then back to the point of like the financial has a team of
- 43:44financialization and all that stuff.
- 43:47What crypto has been doing is easily comparable in my opinion
- 43:52and what the article gets into if you guys haven't read it Is
- 43:54that crypto diversification I guess far?
- 43:58As like what they're trying to claim as Financial Innovation,
- 44:01is just financialization by another name.
- 44:03It is no different than back in 2008.
- 44:07The grouping of mortgage-backed Securities of the, like, a
- 44:12financialized product of claiming, the grouping of
- 44:15mortgage-backed Securities is quote, unquote Diversified so
- 44:18that you can continue to earn like.
- 44:21So I opted, he's going to play this clip here and I want you
- 44:24guys to pay pay attention and see if you can't notice the
- 44:26comparisons to crypto. Okay, perfect, let's get this.
- 44:30Hopefully it just queued up at the right time for you guys and
- 44:34then we do have another clip over here that might point it
- 44:37out and we'll play them back to back because this is from The
- 44:41Big Short. I'm sure you guys have all seen
- 44:43this, but compare this to the shit Quinn space and then we
- 44:48have a clip about the shit coin space saying the same exact
- 44:51thing. So roll it from acute Point
- 44:53Insider okay let's Hopefully, I'm pretty sure I'm teed up.
- 44:56We have a good relationship. You have a good relationship,
- 45:01we've been doing business together for.
- 45:02And so the city owes that you create are of the highest
- 45:07quality and the highest value. Absolutely.
- 45:10Absolutely. Are you at all concerned about
- 45:13the rising? Default rates.
- 45:17I assume they'll risk for the spot us myself work.
- 45:23Okay, so let me get this straight, the bank calls you up.
- 45:29Oh, it's a little earlier, a little early to give you clients
- 45:32to give you money to run your business.
- 45:35Is that right? Yeah, but we're not in the
- 45:38Merrill Lynch building. Okay, we're running on.
- 45:43That's hilarious. There we go.
- 45:45Yeah. Say that again, CDO.
- 45:55A has parts of CDO, B and C. The OB has parts of CDO a but
- 45:58then they both get put inside CDOC.
- 46:01That one's called CDO squared, CDO of a CDO, all right.
- 46:06And then there's CDLs made up of the opposite side of the bed you
- 46:09met with the swamps, we call them synthetic.
- 46:12Cdos what did you think? Static CDF?
- 46:14Okay, okay. Okay.
- 46:16Now you want to explain that a little bit.
- 46:19Give them some context on that and then, RT y.
- 46:21RT up. This other one over there.
- 46:23They're essentially just taking Financial products of different
- 46:26qualities and then just wrapping them up into a diversified
- 46:30portfolio to claim. The like the they diversify to
- 46:33weigh the risk which is just nonsense.
- 46:35Maybe it would be like having a portfolio of all crypto assets,
- 46:41except for Bitcoin and claiming that you're safe.
- 46:44And then you're going into today's situation with the SEC
- 46:46and everything, but it's just like just patently just false
- 46:49complete dog. It like, rape, just say, okay
- 46:54now connect that what happened in 2008 with what is going on,
- 47:01currently in the Chicago in space and Mike actually will UT
- 47:05everyone up with context of this video and how you were telling
- 47:09me before the show is, like, if everyone saw this video like
- 47:13this video should be blowing up this full.
- 47:15Yeah, Moses the whole game in 90 seconds.
- 47:17Yeah. So this video we're about to
- 47:19show you is also It's featured in the article.
- 47:22If you had a red area to seen it, the video is of a discussion
- 47:26with between the host who I can't pronounce his name and
- 47:30Vinny Gupta, who have any Gupta was a in etherium Foundation
- 47:34Insider. He was in, he was part of the
- 47:36very early on very early adopter.
- 47:39He made tons of money off of it. He's going to talk about it in
- 47:41the clip but he specifically talks about the issue that
- 47:45etherium ran into and is and he specifically Elaborates on why
- 47:53the shit coins face continues to just like propagate new shit
- 47:57going projects over and over and over.
- 48:01Perfect. All right, let's play this
- 48:03really happening with all this stuff.
- 48:04Right? Is, there are a bunch of people
- 48:09that have a shit ton of ether, right?
- 48:13I sold out. Fourteen dollars, a coin and we
- 48:19broke our Regal situation, right?
- 48:21The foundation did something stupid.
- 48:23The exposed all of us to a shit ton of liability.
- 48:26And at that point my choice was divesting or moving to a
- 48:29jurisdiction without an extra. I should treat you the u.s.
- 48:32imagine so divested knowing that it was going to cost me.
- 48:35Tens of billions of dollars at full Market would cost me fifty,
- 48:38six billion dollars. So what I should really have
- 48:42done, is we've proposed for go extradition treaty with the US
- 48:44and accepted that I was hiding out but such as life.
- 48:49So The Young. So what they're doing is this,
- 49:01you've got half a billion dollars worth of ether, right?
- 49:04You can't sell half a billion dollars worth of ether without
- 49:06crushing ether price. So you're looking for is ways of
- 49:09turning your Beaker into money in ways which you don't crush
- 49:12The Ether price by Saladin turning indulge their, this is
- 49:16the cool goal. So what they've discovered, as a
- 49:18whole bunch of weird protocols that allow people to borrow to
- 49:22lend money lens, the wrecker out, and then claim interest on
- 49:26The Ether. Which is then paid in real
- 49:28currencies. So what we're doing is we're
- 49:31building up all kind of speculative leveraged Market.
- 49:35You've got a thousand ether, you want to buy more research
- 49:39because you think the price is going up.
- 49:41So you borrow money against your thousand Aether into another
- 49:44token, then you sell those tokens from move ether and
- 49:47you've got all this kind of Leverage financialization stuff
- 49:51going on. The critical thing is that it's
- 49:53all zero-sum. Every penny made in these sub,
- 49:56markets has been lost Else in the system and the Norms Euro.
- 50:00Some use of crypto is like a quarter of a percent of the
- 50:03total transaction. Hold this should be.
- 50:06So aldens purposes, what we the nuclear bomb that sets off all
- 50:10of crypto like anybody who has any fucking money in crypto and
- 50:15sees this clip should be flipping out.
- 50:18Like I don't understand it. That video, by the way, I wrote
- 50:23that article quite a while ago. Video is two years old and it
- 50:29only had. So I shared it with another
- 50:31friend of mine on Twitter spaces, that's actually from the
- 50:34fence with world but loves Bitcoin and hates crypto.
- 50:37And I sent it to him like a week ago, and I only had eight
- 50:40hundred views. And now it's at about 11:00,
- 50:43like, nobody has seen this, like, you guys in the chat right
- 50:48now, or whatever you're like, are watching, like, you've seen
- 50:51this more than most of the cryptos face like, they don't
- 50:54know that this guy is out there. Are that videos out there?
- 50:57And he's just like it's all a sham all of it but I guess just
- 51:02it's ridiculous. And it also explains why a
- 51:06therians price is held up so on and that was before the lock-up
- 51:09two guys, that was before the 2.0 of green as far as the the
- 51:14staking like contract and everything like this is like
- 51:18it's unreal. Absolutely incredible.
- 51:23And and can we can we kind of connect this to the conversation
- 51:26that we had before before we went live and it was kind of the
- 51:30idea and you said in the beginning of like Bitcoin Maxis
- 51:33are like the Vietnam veterans they were like guys I know you
- 51:37think your coin is different. I know you think there's much
- 51:39innovation in the space but there's Bitcoin in their shit
- 51:43coin and is becoming very clear if you're in the space for
- 51:46longer than probably a year or two, you've done a cycle or so
- 51:49you've done the research. That all of this is just a scam
- 51:53to get your Bitcoin and there is no real innovation in here.
- 51:57It's all. What, what's the Rubes Goldberg
- 52:01machine? The just like Perpetual creation
- 52:04of stealing your Bitcoin and it just, it really pains me as a
- 52:10bit Corner that went through the same cycle and 2017 to see more
- 52:14people get rekt by the same mechanisms that got us in the
- 52:18beginning. And this is why bitcoiners I
- 52:20think you're so tough. Take him where so I don't know.
- 52:22Just like, how been on on trying to protect people from
- 52:26themselves. I think you said, like big
- 52:27Hunters are, like, the parents that are sitting there like,
- 52:29hey, like don't do this, do you're going to put your hand on
- 52:33the stove? And obviously, people need to
- 52:34learn and put their hand on the stove.
- 52:36But man, it's incredible that this, this type of content is
- 52:40out there and yet people just completely dig their head in the
- 52:44sand. And and there's so few Bitcoin
- 52:46only content where we're just like, guys just take Bitcoin in
- 52:48self custody, you can avoid all the headaches.
- 52:50X, you can avoid losing money if you just listen to the toxic
- 52:54bitcoiners out there. But, hey, you know, where the
- 52:56assholes where the toxic ones. So, whatever, It's like in the
- 53:04thing is too is like you asked in a like in the pre-show
- 53:08conversation. You asked what what's keeping
- 53:11like normies from accepting it and like normies are dealing
- 53:15with a lot of like there's a sunk cost bias that I ranted
- 53:17about earlier. Like there's there's the fact
- 53:20that like the marketing that these projects engage is
- 53:24extremely effective. Like we have, we have learned a
- 53:27lot about like human psychology and what gets us to want to do
- 53:30things. when you guys are having these discussions with your,
- 53:35with your crypto friends, or your no corners is, like, you
- 53:38need to be cognizant and aware of these kinds of forces on like
- 53:42the individual mind because it's these are all powerful drugs,
- 53:46especially if any of these individuals get into like the
- 53:49crypto space during like an altcoin season when when they're
- 53:53capitalizing on bitcoin being in a bull market like That's where
- 53:57a lot of us got sucked into Bitcoin was actually through an
- 54:01altcoin season like specifically 2017.
- 54:05And that's the reason why we're also like the Vietnam vet or
- 54:09like the mean that a lot of you guys have seen where it's like
- 54:11the big older wolf has a boatload of arrows sticking out
- 54:16of his back and like he's all scarred up.
- 54:18He's got the little pockets, got tiny little arrow in his thighs.
- 54:20Like hey, I'm trying to teach you these lessons because I've
- 54:23been here, But if you need a couple arrows in your back, like
- 54:27I mean I can facilitate that 100%.

- 56:46This is a fan favorite anyways. The first meme.
- 56:49Shout out to my boy. Nick, can't mine because I think
- 56:52this is one of the funniest templates.
- 56:54This is one of the funnier new templates that I've seen on
- 56:57Twitter and it absolutely cracks me up the Zoomer Janet Yellen
- 57:00meme. Anyways, we got it right here.
- 57:02We got Janet Yellen to Zoomer Janet Yellen with the Zoomer
- 57:05haircut and she's got a little you know, gold earring.
- 57:08And it goes bro. So like for real a couple
- 57:11countries going to stop using the dollar and they laying for
- 57:13that on my mama. It's not that bad.
- 57:16It's only going to be a little slow Decline, and anyone who
- 57:19says, it'll be fast as straight Cap'n.
- 57:24Oh, man, that's so funny to me, that that make killed it on that
- 57:28one, that's hilarious. The literally.
- 57:30Is that not what Janet Yellen just said?
- 57:32Oh my God, interpreted from the Zoomer.
- 57:35Okay. This next one is by my boy at
- 57:37row p.m. on Twitter and he goes, it's all going to work out.
- 57:40Exactly how it's supposed to just enjoy the ride.
- 57:44And we got this, this I don't know, I'm gonna guess is like a
- 57:4770s 60s, 70s, car, there's a dude in a suit and a girl in a
- 57:51very colorful shirt. And she's changing the radio and
- 57:54sheets on, and they're on the road to the bright orange
- 57:58future. So you can see, Bitcoin is in
- 58:01the Stars anyways, it's next one, we covered this news
- 58:04yesterday. Apple is clamping down on on
- 58:09bitcoin, not only apps but their wallets.
- 58:12Not only on Noster or Thomas, we're seeing they you know,
- 58:18YouTube is shutting stuff down but here we got Paulo ardoin.
- 58:23Oh sorry. Forgive me, bro.
- 58:25And I'm pretty sure this guy works for key.
- 58:28Yeah. Hole punch at keep so he does
- 58:31pair over Apple. I'm guessing key is keeps logo
- 58:35and a pair, I don't know. Anyways, we got SpongeBob
- 58:38yelling and it's SpongeBob is a pain.
- 58:40It goes, you can't tip people. As we take it 30 percent cut, I
- 58:44think this is what we all. Are realizing Apple watch their
- 58:48money and they want it now. Anyways, this next meme is by
- 58:51Unchained unchain Buddha and it goes government regulations.
- 58:55Got you down, got a family members suffering from
- 58:57blockchain technology syndrome check the medicine cabinet.
- 59:01There's just been a recall on blockchain at all.
- 59:04See if Bitcoin only approach is right for you or them and we got
- 59:09some orange pills here or pill pill bottle - blockchain at all.
- 59:13Take one daily to convince yourself that all Krypto.
- 59:16These are equal side effects may include rug pools.
- 59:19Government regulation, Bitcoin maximalism delusion, syndrome,
- 59:22retweeting o.d. and self-hatred. We got the the depressed rag,
- 59:29NPC ghost in the corner. See if a Bitcoin only approach
- 59:33is right for you or a family member today.
- 59:36Okay? This next one again on the theme
- 59:39of Apple needing their cup. I thought this one was pretty
- 59:42funny as well. This is my tray Walsh at que
- 59:44Trae Walsh and he goes Date, but you can see here, we're gonna
- 59:47double down. We got here, the classic, the,
- 59:51you know, McCoy, my kids. My young cool kids and he goes,
- 59:56what's an M Pub? And how do we get one?
- 59:58But this is the funny one. Here, we got Tim Cook here and
- 1:00:00goes, introducing eyes apps. The first of its kind instantly
- 1:00:03settled, peer-to-peer payment for Content.
- 1:00:05You like, if you don't get the joke, they're gonna tell Noster
- 1:00:09this. Just stop zaps and then they'll
- 1:00:11Rebrand it as their own new feature, the eyes apps.
- 1:00:16Honestly, I see this coming down the line.
- 1:00:18I think, anyone can see the writing on the wall.
- 1:00:22Okay, this next one. Alright, actually, these last
- 1:00:24two memes. I know you guys yell at me all
- 1:00:26the time and because I bring charts up here sometimes and
- 1:00:30that, you know, last year, I brought like four charts and
- 1:00:33everyone's like, oh my chart porn.
- 1:00:34You guys are bringing up way more charts and before, hey,
- 1:00:37sometimes charts just give you a good visual anyways.
- 1:00:40This meme is by dr. Jeff Ross AKA at Vail, sure cap
- 1:00:44on Twitter and he go my favorite.
- 1:00:45Page on the st. Louis fed dot org, site buying
- 1:00:48eggs with Bitcoins since they started keeping track in January
- 1:00:522015, through May 2023. The price of a dozen eggs and US
- 1:00:56dollar up 26.5 percent, from two point or two dollars, and 11
- 1:01:01cents, to two dollars and 67 cents.
- 1:01:04And you can see the chart right here.
- 1:01:05Average price in eggs. It looks like it's getting
- 1:01:08higher. But also, it looks like it's
- 1:01:10coming down a little bit, but it is still higher than it was.
- 1:01:14It's almost like it's going. Up forever.
- 1:01:16Laura anyways. And then in BTC it is down - 99
- 1:01:21percent from 925,000 406 SATs to nine thousand six hundred and
- 1:01:27ninety five shots and you can see the chart here and the
- 1:01:30conclusion is life gets more expensive the longer you hold
- 1:01:33you as dollars. Why life gets cheaper the longer
- 1:01:35you hold Bitcoin back over here bro.
- 1:01:37So like for real couple countries gonna I'm using the
- 1:01:39dollar and they'll aim for that bro.
- 1:01:41Like okay this is something we've kind of been talking about
- 1:01:49in space is a lot. I've been having these
- 1:01:50conversations with friends off air as well.
- 1:01:54It is the idea that I think a lot of big Corners are feeling
- 1:01:57the bear Market fatigue right now there's a lot of you know
- 1:02:02shit slinging on Twitter, everyone's attacking each other.
- 1:02:06Everyone is tired of being poor and broke because because the
- 1:02:09purchasing power of our Bitcoin is down right now.
- 1:02:13But if you are in it for the long run, everyone understand.
- 1:02:16One thing it is going up, forever.
- 1:02:18Laura and Bitcoin is your savings account and the
- 1:02:21short-term volatility of Bitcoin shouldn't be a matter.
- 1:02:25But anyways, to the classes, coinbase media to the class of
- 1:02:28twenty, twenty one and twenty. Twenty two bitcoiners.
- 1:02:30If you're still here. Congratulations.
- 1:02:33You've just endure the toughest bear market and Bitcoin history.
- 1:02:372015 was 380. Six days, 2018 with 204 days and
- 1:02:422022 bear market. So far is four hundred and
- 1:02:46ninety days. The 2024 having is coming and
- 1:02:49you can see this chart here, the bear Market, 2015, bear Market
- 1:02:54of 2018 and the bear Market, the current bear Market that we're
- 1:02:57just barely getting out of. So congratulations to you guys,
- 1:03:01if you are a newer Bitcoin 2022, 2022, Bitcoin Ur, you may have
- 1:03:07just endured the Bear Market in history yet.
- 1:03:12And I think, I think it's becoming very obvious at least
- 1:03:14to me. I'm on social media all the
- 1:03:16time. It's my job to be on Twitter.
- 1:03:18I been around a cycle or two and I'm seeing the same thing.
- 1:03:23A lot of our Bitcoin friend, again, lost in the sauce.
- 1:03:26There's a lot of divide and conquer going on on Twitter.
- 1:03:30It's because it's a bear Market, it's just bear Market things and
- 1:03:32we say it all the time. You probably will like a bear
- 1:03:36Market more than you like a bull market Twitter.
- 1:03:39But hey, just, you know, keep yourself in the game.
- 1:03:44Keep your head in the game, and this is the importance of the
- 1:03:46memes, because not only are we ridiculing.
- 1:03:49The corporate press. Not only are we getting the
- 1:03:51calls of actions out there and educating people in bite-sized,
- 1:03:55palatable messages and mean for bitcoiners but we're keeping
- 1:04:00morale up and as Mike knows he was in the army, And me and him
- 1:04:05have had this conversation before.
- 1:04:07It is super important to keep the morale of your troops up.
- 1:04:11You guys are all in the fight, this is a monetary War, we are
- 1:04:15in an information War. I am convinced that we are in an
- 1:04:18information war. And as we say, all the time
- 1:04:20tweets, the bullets memes relay artillery.
- 1:04:22So if you made it through the bear Market, congratulations.

- 1:09:25you coming on. On today's show.
- 1:09:27The really hype that you have become one of the alternative
- 1:09:30members here on simply Bitcoin. I love when you come on, go
- 1:09:35ahead, it really isn't time. Yeah, it really balances out my
- 1:09:39bullet heartedness. When we get a sober Bitcoin, ER,
- 1:09:42and we have we have pretty good banter.
- 1:09:44So Mike what do you want? What do you want the people to
- 1:09:47check out? I got your Twitter here but plug
- 1:09:49everything you're working on. I know you're working on some
- 1:09:51other projects that aren't necessarily Bitcoin related.
- 1:09:53So yeah, let's touch on that. So as far as as like you guys
- 1:09:57can check out my sub stack if you want to see some of the
- 1:10:00other side I like to, I like to now keep a lot of my Bitcoin
- 1:10:04conversation to Simply, you guys know where to go with simply and
- 1:10:09they've got fart, like simple. He's got farther reach and all
- 1:10:12that stuff, but I do have my own stuff.
- 1:10:14Sack for like, physiology and philosophy and like, what other
- 1:10:18things I like to rant about? That can be found at.
- 1:10:21Just hear me out dotsub stack.com, that's super easy.
- 1:10:27And like the name of the sub stack is just hear me out and
- 1:10:30then I'm also down in the lower left, that's my Twitter handle.
- 1:10:36Like that's really just the like the only two because I'm pretty
- 1:10:39busy over here. Trying to I'm working on getting
- 1:10:42a personal training like company set up here in Houston and like,
- 1:10:46getting a cscs certification. So I'm staying plenty busy.
- 1:10:52Did honestly Bitcoin life as like a big clown?
- 1:10:55My life. And I think we've talked about
- 1:10:57this on the past like Bitcoin has a weird way.
- 1:11:01Obviously, the meme Bitcoin changes you you don't change
- 1:11:04Bitcoin but it's very interesting how a lot of us
- 1:11:07bitcoiners learn to become entrepreneurs through Bitcoin
- 1:11:12and it just like it really blows everything, you know, to be
- 1:11:15true. And as you you know, transition
- 1:11:18from Fiat life into stacking SATs There comes a point where
- 1:11:22you're like well I have some SATs now.
- 1:11:25Maybe I can transition unlock my human capital and build some
- 1:11:28businesses that I've always wanted to do and it's just
- 1:11:31beautiful to see this happen in so many of my friends.
- 1:11:34And I think we said this last time you were on here, maybe the
- 1:11:37time before we're us becoming entrepreneurs is just like a
- 1:11:43parallel route of everything. We're doing here in time is
- 1:11:46like, what we say all the time on space is if you guys aren't
- 1:11:49on Twitter spaces with us, me and my crew.
- 1:11:51All the time about this, get your mind right, get your body,
- 1:11:53right? Get your finances, right and
- 1:11:57everything else will fall into place and this is something we
- 1:12:00talked about consistently on Twitter, it's get outside, touch
- 1:12:03some grass, lift, some heavy stuff, eat some good food, build
- 1:12:07your relationships up because it's not all about just hoarding
- 1:12:10SATs, it's about becoming the best possible version of
- 1:12:14yourself that you can be. And, of course, it starts with
- 1:12:16fixing the money, it starts with being financially free, and then
- 1:12:20from there, You can become a well-rounded human and spread
- 1:12:24the Bitcoin, message easier. Anyways, Mike, hang out in the
- 1:12:27back, I want to continue the combo, we had in the beginning
- 1:12:30as I roll. This one out for everyone.

- 1:12:38chaos. Again, we did start a little
- 1:12:41late on today's show but you do not know how much trouble
