Latest / Simply Bitcoin / The Bitcoiners Were Right | Everything You Were Told Was a LIE | Bitcoin Simply
Transcript
- 0:01All of this. Is false.
- 0:03Then why won't they let people talk?
- 0:04Why won't they let This is not real information?
- 0:10And we sit here like it's. OK, it's a charade.
- 0:14Maybe the bit corners were right.
- 0:16Everything that they told you was a lie.
- 0:17They said that your vote mattered.
- 0:19But yesterday a Utah County Commission approved a project to
- 0:22award 40,000 acres to Mr. Wonderful, AKA Kevin O'Leary to
- 0:26build AI data centers despite the entire community being in
- 0:30opposition. They said that they would make
- 0:31housing affordable. What they didn't tell you is
- 0:34that home builders would put NVIDIA mini AI data centers in
- 0:37the walls of your homes so that you can afford it and also fund
- 0:41your own unemployment. They told you that crypto was
- 0:43taking over finance, that we were in a boom, their profits
- 0:47record adoption. What they didn't tell you was
- 0:49that they were going to lay you off with a tweet and with an
- 0:51e-mail. They also didn't tell you that
- 0:52the biggest crypto exchange in America went down for five
- 0:55hours. And right in the middle of that,
- 0:57the internet's most famous fraud investigator sat down to prove
- 1:00that Bitcoin financial products are a Ponzi scheme.
- 1:03He walked out with a harder question than when he came in.
- 1:06Today, we're going to give you the receipts.
- 1:08The lies that bit corners have been exposing for years are
- 1:10finally coming to the light. This is Dante Coco Bitcoin
- 1:13simply let's go. Coinbase just posted a terrible
- 1:20quarter. Revenue was down 31% and they
- 1:22posted a net loss of $394 million.
- 1:26Crypto Bros everywhere keep telling the story.
- 1:29Everything is moving on chain. We will see the tokenization in
- 1:32the securitization of every asset.
- 1:34Bit corners have been very clear about this from the very
- 1:36beginning. This future won't work because
- 1:39people want to own hard assets in real things, not fractions of
- 1:43things that can be created out of thin air.
- 1:45This on chain finance revolution is hype in vaporware.
- 1:49It's a low margin business that sounds sexy on the surface but
- 1:52is a terrible profit machine under the hood.
- 1:54While all this was happening at Coinbase Bitcoin Twitter was
- 1:57having a different debate, especially with Michael Saylor
- 1:59coming out and saying that they're going to sell Bitcoin in
- 2:02order to fund the dividends our products like MSTR and STRC
- 2:06Ponzi schemes. Coffeezilla is one of the most
- 2:08well known fraud investigators on YouTube.
- 2:11He sat down with Jeff Walton, known as Punter Jeff.
- 2:13He's one of the sharpest minds in Bitcoin financial products,
- 2:16and the question was simple. Is this whole thing a Ponzi
- 2:19scheme or not? Is an insurance company a Ponzi
- 2:21scheme? Is it an insurance company?
- 2:26A Ponzi scheme? Yeah, no.
- 2:28Why not? Because they they have business
- 2:32activities that are providing. Cash flows, They're taking on
- 2:34risk, they're taking on risk. Insurance companies have
- 2:39capital, and they're taking on risk to pay liability into the
- 2:44future. Here's the reality.
- 2:45Coffee, no, but they have absolute, they have, they have
- 2:47cash flow, they they have real business.
- 2:50Activities, the cash flow is the risk that they're selling.
- 2:52They're selling risk, right? So believe it or not, they're
- 2:56not. Believe it or not, believe it or
- 2:57not, almost 100% of the claims that get paid out on insurance
- 3:02company balance sheets is from premiums that they're collecting
- 3:04in the door. Almost 100%.
- 3:07OK. So under your definition, you
- 3:10would call an insurance company a Ponzi scheme?
- 3:13No, no, they have, they have real like profits.
- 3:15They have real cash flows. Their profits are everything
- 3:18that they keep in premiums minus the liabilities that they pay
- 3:21out. That is the business of
- 3:23insurance. They do sell risk, a risk that
- 3:26more times than not they won't have to pay out claims on the
- 3:29things that you are getting insurance for.
- 3:31That is their cash flows strategy has profits too,
- 3:34depreciation in their Bitcoin holdings minus their liabilities
- 3:38from their dividends or any debt obligations that they have.
- 3:41There is no difference. Let's continue.
- 3:43The profit coming from are the. Assets that are protected on
- 3:46their balance sheet, the reserves.
- 3:50Or or payment no, but people are paying for products look if an
- 3:55insurance if an insurance. What's the product?
- 3:58An, an apples to apples comparison is, let's say an
- 4:01insurance company was offering like a yield based on something
- 4:06and then they're like, what's the yield based on?
- 4:07Well, it's based on our balance sheet.
- 4:08Well, where's the balance sheet coming from?
- 4:10Well, we're selling this yield, right.
- 4:12So like that is not the same as an insurance company which is
- 4:17actually offering a product which is let's say I want to go
- 4:20insure my car, I'm paying premium.
- 4:22Equity, not a product. It's a stock, It's a potential
- 4:28preferred stock. It's a product.
- 4:30You're you're holding it. You're holding it for a reason.
- 4:34Well, you're, I'm holding it because I, I, I think I'm going
- 4:36to get paid a dividend. That's not a product I don't
- 4:38buy. NVIDIA is NVIDIA stock a
- 4:40product? Yeah, absolutely.
- 4:43Absolutely. No.
- 4:44No, their their GPU's are their products.
- 4:46They're not. But they're not.
- 4:47The stock is a product. The stock is a product.
- 4:50He can't cope. If you ever notice at any time
- 4:52that somebody from mainstream media or crypto bro can't hear
- 4:55the truth, they just yell and scream and turn into complete
- 4:58lunatics. You can see a psychopath from a
- 5:00distance. Bitcoiners have been saying for
- 5:02years that Bitcoin financial products are going to out
- 5:04compete normal native financial products.
- 5:07You're watching it happen in real time.
- 5:09Back to more lies and we sit. Here like it's.
- 5:11OK, it's a charade. It's a.
- 5:23This is a clip from a Utah County Commission meeting where
- 5:26the people are processing because, well, they don't want
- 5:28to give 40,000 acres to a Canadian billionaire who has no
- 5:30interest in their community to fund AI data centers which they
- 5:33will get no value and no use from other than skyrocketing
- 5:37electricity prices. Seems reasonable.
- 5:39Kevin O'Leary said that these people were fake busted.
- 5:43Kevin even said that some of them are powered by AIAI powered
- 5:46humans is a new wrinkle that I didn't even see.
- 5:48Come. Here's what he had to say about
- 5:50his credentials as a data center expert.
- 5:52How are you offsetting the? How are you?
- 5:54Offsetting these. Environmental concerns.
- 5:56Well, I'm. Actually the only.
- 5:59Developer of data centers on earth that graduated from
- 6:02environmental studies. So I'm pretty aware of what
- 6:05these concerns are. They are around air, water use,
- 6:09heat, noise, pollution. So sustainability is at the
- 6:16heart of what we do. In terms of all these proposals,
- 6:18we not just Utah, we have 10,000 acres in Alberta, Canada with
- 6:22the same concerns. This is about sustainability.
- 6:26You're the only guy building a data center with an
- 6:27environmental studies degree. Does anybody actually believe
- 6:31what this dude is saying right now?
- 6:32Many people think of Kevin as the host of Shark Tank, an
- 6:34investor, smart guy. But most people don't know that
- 6:37he sold a House of Cards called Soft Key International to
- 6:40Mattel, a global M and a conglomerate.
- 6:42After they bought Soft Key International, Mattel executives
- 6:45actually sued Kevin O'Leary because they realized that all
- 6:49of the revenue that they showed were accounting tricks and
- 6:51fraud. He walked away with millions of
- 6:53dollars and the company walked away with a House of Cards.
- 6:56And so now the CD-ROM fraud guy is now a data center expert.
- 7:00Bitcoiners have been saying if you can't protect your vote with
- 7:03some sort of financial power, with some sort of encryption, a
- 7:06wall of energy that cannot be corrupted or cannot be broken,
- 7:09well then your vote doesn't actually count.
- 7:11Those with the most influence can reorganize the chain or the
- 7:15truth to bend the wheel to their reality.
- 7:18This is a perfect example. Remember when Donald Trump was
- 7:20the no war president? It's funny how this clip from
- 7:23Rubio on Iran sounds just like Cole and how on a clip about
- 7:27Iraq. I think you're linking it the
- 7:29the operation is over. Epic Fury is a president
- 7:32notified Congress. We're done with that stage of
- 7:34it. OK, We're now on to this project
- 7:36of freedom. As far as a negotiation is
- 7:38concerned, I think the president's been clear that part
- 7:40of the negotiation process has to be not just the enrichment,
- 7:43but what happens to this material that's buried deep
- 7:46somewhere that they have still have access to if they ever
- 7:48wanted to dig it out. That has to be addressed.
- 7:51So the weapons of mass destruction are now uranium
- 7:54nukes. Well, we never found the weapons
- 7:56of mass destruction, and we're probably not going to get any
- 7:58more uranium. Bitcoiners have told you time
- 8:01and time again the only way to defund the war is by stopping
- 8:04the money printer. And if you.
- 8:05Want to stop the war machine? You have to.
- 8:07Stop the money. Printing machine which?
- 8:08Means we have to end the Fed. And I think.
- 8:10This is why the ethos. Has always.
- 8:12Been with Bitcoin and. The Fed.
- 8:16Speaking of rackets, AUS Congressman just said the quiet
- 8:19part out loud. Mega energy oil, you know, we
- 8:22get zero. I know it's a commodity and I'm
- 8:25going to get lit up that oil is a commodity in it, you know the
- 8:29world market. But we get 0 oil from Iran.
- 8:33Zero. We, we export oil right now and
- 8:37yet the price is going through the roof.
- 8:38It's going through the roof because it can, they can.
- 8:41And I always say, well, how does that gasoline in the pumps go
- 8:46up? It's been in the, they've
- 8:48already been processed, already been paid for.
- 8:50How does it go up exponentially just overnight, $0.20 a gallon
- 8:53or whatever? And how does that, and if that's
- 8:56because it's a commodity and merchant, you don't understand,
- 8:59how come that quart of oil that you at the hardware store
- 9:02doesn't go up like that? Wouldn't it?
- 9:05It's processed oil, wouldn't it do the same?
- 9:07And of course, diesel, it's your first cut.
- 9:11I think it's kerosene and then it's diesel and diesel and I've
- 9:14got a diesel Dooley. I filled it up yesterday is over
- 9:17$100. You know, it is the cheapest, it
- 9:20is the roughest cut. You know, that's why you have
- 9:23these incredible filters because it's dirty and gasoline is the
- 9:28third or fourth cut and it ought to be the most expensive, but
- 9:32it's not. I just think it's a racket.
- 9:34And every time they, they'll hold the hearings and they'll
- 9:37come down there and, and, you know, and the oil companies or
- 9:42you know, they'll shake that money tree.
- 9:43They know how to do it on both sides of the aisle.
- 9:46We get 0 oil from Iran 0, yet all the prices continue to go
- 9:50up. This is from a sitting
- 9:52congressman on the record. Whether it's big oil, crypto
- 9:55exchanges, AI, data centers, the result is always the same.
- 9:59The people at the top extract at the expense of the people at the
- 10:02bottom, unless the people at the bottom can properly defend
- 10:05themselves. Here's the truth.
- 10:06We're in a trustless, permissionless world.
- 10:09And Bitcoin is a trustless, permissionless asset.
- 10:13That was from a Charles Schwab executive, not me.
- 10:15We're moving into a trustless world, a world where even people
- 10:18don't trust their own governments.
- 10:20We were all just sweating bullets trying to get our taxes
- 10:22done before April 15th. You know the process where they
- 10:24know exactly how much we owe, but they don't tell us how much
- 10:27we owe. And if we don't pay them what
- 10:29they owe, they come after us. And if we pay too much, well,
- 10:32they never give Give your money back.
- 10:34None of it even matters because they can just print the money
- 10:36out of thin air. It's all an illusion.
- 10:39It's all a lie. The big corners have been saying
- 10:41from the beginning of time. Someone could ask, well, so if
- 10:44the government can print the limited amounts of money out of
- 10:48thin air, why did they collect taxes?
- 11:00I mean, a theory would make sense right?
- 11:02If they can print unlimited amounts of money, why would they
- 11:05need taxes for? The answer is simple, but it's
- 11:09very shocking. The real problem is that you pay
- 11:14high taxes only to uphold the illusion that you are funding
- 11:19the government, which you are not.
- 11:25It's shocking, but it's true. The government is funded by
- 11:30money, printing paper backed with paper, a bubble that will
- 11:38inevitably burst. The situation is even worse than
- 11:43it seems, because if most Americans and the rest of the
- 11:47world were to become aware of this farce, confidence in your
- 11:51currency would be lost. The dollar will fall, and the
- 11:56Western civilization with it. One of the ways that you can
- 11:59escape the financial rat race is by holding an asset that allows
- 12:03you to borrow against it and not enter the existing financial
- 12:06system. That's why Leadin was created.
- 12:08They allow you to borrow from your Bitcoin holdings and stack
- 12:11without selling your Bitcoin holdings and stack.
- 12:13Your Bitcoin is not re hypothecated.
- 12:15You can see it on chain in the actual platform.
- 12:18Fiat can get to your account in less than six hours.
- 12:21Go to learn dot leadin dot AO slash simply to get started.
- 12:23They said if you work hard and you build a company by your
- 12:26bootstraps, you'll be rewarded. And I can't think of a better
- 12:29example than Uncle Jeff or Jeff Bezos from Amazon.
- 12:33He's crop dusted every doorstep in America with cardboard boxes
- 12:36clogging in the neighborhood streets with those big prime
- 12:39blue vans that you can't drive past even if they try to park on
- 12:42the side. Oh, yeah.
- 12:43Even Uncle Jeff, who created 1.5 million jobs is now being
- 12:47attacked by the establishment. He wants to get a boat or a
- 12:49yacht or have a party at the Met Gala with the money that he's
- 12:52created with the 1.5 million people that he employs.
- 12:55Bernie Sanders had something to say about this.
- 12:57And you know this is that when even grifty shifty had something
- 13:01to say back to him. So you're telling me if I run a
- 13:03daycare in Minnesota, I'm an entrepreneur, but if I built one
- 13:06of the five most valuable companies in the world, I'm a
- 13:09fraud? It's not just Bezos to coming
- 13:11for Kane Griffin too. Mom, Donnie, we told you was
- 13:14going to tell the lies just to get elected.
- 13:16And once he got in, he was going to implement unfair taxes to go
- 13:20after the rich and the wealthy, the people that are bringing the
- 13:23money, the jobs and the industry to New York.
- 13:25But Ken Griffin, CEO Citadel, was like, Nah, I'm out.
- 13:29And now and now with the Mayor of New York has made clear to my
- 13:33partners and principally my New York partners, my New York
- 13:36partners, is that we need to double down on our bet in Miami.
- 13:40Because we want to be in a state that embraces that embraces
- 13:45business, that embraces education, that embraces
- 13:50personal freedom and liberty, and that embraces people having
- 13:54an opportunity to live the American dream.
- 13:57Bitcoin has been saying this all along.
- 13:59Bitcoin is the only true free financial market.
- 14:01It's the only real solution to the problems that we're facing
- 14:04today and. So what Bitcoin is doing is it's
- 14:06imposing the first free market that's ever existed.
- 14:10And, and it's I, I specific specifically said imposing it
- 14:14doesn't care what you think of it.
- 14:15It doesn't care how you want to measure it.
- 14:17It's imposing it. And, and, but, but because we've
- 14:22never lived in that system, we don't have a mental model for
- 14:25what that looks like. So we've always lived in a 0 sum
- 14:27game where if you had a bigger army, you can invade and steal
- 14:31somebody else's gold or raw materials and you could put them
- 14:34under slavery for you. And inside the country that had
- 14:37the biggest army you looked, you could win at their their loss.
- 14:41But it was always a 0 sum game. And then we replaced that system
- 14:44with a monetary theft that did the same thing.
- 14:47So but we didn't have to invade them, we just did it with the
- 14:50currency. But the free market is an
- 14:53infinite game, completely infinite because you have to
- 14:58choose and somebody has to deliver you more value and
- 15:01everybody wins. If you look at your calculator
- 15:04app on your phone today, where is that in GDP?
- 15:09Do you gain value from that? Should it go up in price because
- 15:15people are making you want to tax the calculator app to make
- 15:18more money to pay for arbitrarily rising prices?
- 15:22The point is the technology is that allows us to do more with
- 15:26less forever. So this brings us up to a number
- 15:33of different observers observing what's happening in real time.
- 15:37An observer won in credit money. This observer is the vast part
- 15:44of the population and this observer believes that money is
- 15:47systems foundationally sound. The money works, experts manage
- 15:52it, and inflation is normal. They question what rate of
- 15:56inflation rather than is inflation normal.
- 16:00And this would be an easy lie to believe.
- 16:03Everything they've ever known, every history book economist
- 16:07spoke this over and over, all the experts.
- 16:10They operate within a system that's in direct opposition to
- 16:13the free market and and fight within that system about which
- 16:18side is right. And the expansion of money that
- 16:22has to keep happening from the credit based system because it
- 16:25can't stop, otherwise it would all fail.
- 16:29The expansion of money leads to asset inflation, inequality,
- 16:33cost pressures. This leads to debt dependence
- 16:37and increasing fertility in the system.
- 16:40But because each person looks from that system to their hero
- 16:44to solve the system, the problem that the system can't resolve,
- 16:49they divide. They naturally divide this
- 16:53person that this person's going to save me, this person's going
- 16:55to save me. And and that credit money keeps
- 16:59on expanding, leading to more and more division of society,
- 17:02leading to larger interventions, leading to misallocations of
- 17:05capital, leading to fraud, leading to greater instability.
- 17:09If you want to remove power from the existing system, like Jeff
- 17:11Booth talks about what you need to run your own node and you
- 17:14need to manage your own keys. But you need to know how to do
- 17:17this the right way. Don't just go at it alone.
- 17:20Get a coach from the Bitcoin Way.
- 17:21They'll help you, your friends, your family.
- 17:23Take sovereignty of your wealth. The right way to help you set up
- 17:26your Bitcoin node privately, safely, securely, confidently,
- 17:29so you can pass your keys and your coins to future
- 17:31generations. Schedule a free 30 minute
- 17:33meeting with the team by going to the
- 17:35bitcoinway.com/partner/dante Dash Cook.
- 17:39They'll hook you up. Talk a polar money, which I
- 17:41think is a good way of emphasizing the value
- 17:43proposition of Bitcoin, which is that we live in a unipolar world
- 17:47order where the US has the dollar and when we discuss
- 17:51alternatives it's either another unipolar world order or a multi
- 17:56polar world order. But Bitcoin offers us something
- 17:58truly new which is an A polar world order, a monetary world
- 18:03order that is not built around 1 government having an exorbitant
- 18:07privilege. So I'm going to 1st begin by
- 18:10identifying some of the main problems with government money
- 18:12both domestically and internationally.
- 18:15The biggest problem which I talk about extensively in my books is
- 18:17inflation. If you look at the last 60
- 18:19years, the average Fiat currency has increased in supply by about
- 18:2414% per year. The best, better Fiat currencies
- 18:30like the dollar, the yen and the euro have increased at about 6,
- 18:34seven, 8% per year on average. And the worst ones have gone up
- 18:37by 20-30, forty, 50% on average. So this is devastating.
- 18:43And of course, the other problem with government money is
- 18:45hyperinflation. Only government money does
- 18:48hyperinflation. As the great Ludwig von Mises
- 18:51used to say, only government can take a perfectly good commodity
- 18:56like paper, sprinkle some ink on it, and make it worthless.
- 19:00That is only happened with government money.
- 19:03The US government's only value had right now it's to spring
- 19:06some ink on a useful commodity and make it useless.
- 19:09Bitcoin is the only solution to the problems that we're facing.
- 19:11Bitcoiners have been telling you the only way to stop the war
- 19:14machine is to defund the money printer.
- 19:17The only way to actually have power and protection of your
- 19:19vote. If you're a middle class or
- 19:20rural farmer in Utah protesting a 40,000 acre data center in
- 19:25your town, in your community, well, you need the capital to
- 19:27stand up and fight. If you don't have the capital,
- 19:29well, it doesn't matter. They told you the crypto was
- 19:32taking over finance. It's definitely not.
- 19:35Bitcoin is going to take over the Swift and Fed wire
- 19:37settlement networks. It is going to be the
- 19:39predominant and pre eminent form of global sentiment payments
- 19:43across the world. Layer twos will be built on top
- 19:46of Bitcoin so that they're decentralized, they're fast,
- 19:48they're quick, and all things are still recorded on chain.
- 19:50Lightning is still coming. They told you that Bitcoin
- 19:53mining was bad for the environment, yet now they're
- 19:56putting AI data centers in your house saying that it can utilize
- 20:00energy when you're not using the energy.
- 20:02The same thing that Bitcoin has been saying the whole time.
- 20:04The lies are being exposed for what they truly are, lies.
- 20:08But you're going to be on point because you subscribe to shows
- 20:10like these. You subscribe to the simply
- 20:12Bitcoin channel where we drop alpha like this seven days a
- 20:15week. Still feeling a little sick, but
- 20:17glad to be back. Sorry for all the fans that I
- 20:19didn't get to see at the Bitcoin Vegas conference.
- 20:21This is Dante Cook with Bitcoin. Simply happy stacking. 01 last
