Transcript
- 0:07Sorry about the delay there. Today, guys on the live stream, we
- 0:10are doing some things here on the crypto pit in terms of research around what's
- 0:13going to happen in the debate tonight, and of course that is mister Trump
- 0:17and of course mister Biden going head to head for the first presidential debate.
- 0:21We'll break it all down for you. My name is Paul Barrel. Welcome
- 0:23back into tech Path. I do want to thank our sponsor today. That's
- 0:26Coinbase. If you're brand new to crypto and your first step is to get
- 0:30your first token, maybe it's Ethereum, maybe it's Solana, go over to

- 0:47I think it'll be a good program for you if your specially if you're
- 0:50brand new to the show, don't forget subscribe right now. We'll get into
- 0:53your feed. Let's go into a few of the points. Obviously, the
- 0:57crypto or excuse me, I should say at the crypto debate is happening tonight,
- 1:00but the presidential debate is happening to night. For us, it's a
- 1:03crypto debate. Four issues are likely to define the Trump Biden debate. The
- 1:08biggest one is really getting into the scenario of both innovation and also the economy.
- 1:15Some of the things that are happening, though, is going to look
- 1:19at, I think, dictating what the next few months will really translate to
- 1:23in terms of how the markets perform. Also the anticipation of not only voters,
- 1:30but businesses, businesses who hire people, who start new innovations, start
- 1:36new sectors. All of that I think is going to be driven by what
- 1:38happens tonight. A couple of points here. Americans have maintained very negative views
- 1:44about the economy and even conflate rising prices with inflation. Biden has outlined a
- 1:49plan to increase taxes on the wealthy and large corps and restore the child tax
- 1:53credit, which expired in twenty twenty two, and Trump is vowed to extend
- 1:59the signature tax which are set to expire this year. But he's also discussed
- 2:01about furthering corporate tax rate cuts from the twenty one percent which was thirty five
- 2:07percent before is twenty seventeen tax bill, so mainly taxes and economic I think
- 2:12where it boils down to for both President Trump and President Biden is their stance.
- 2:19Really. I think that we'll fall into innovation, and that is how
- 2:23does the United States? How does America stay in front of the rest of
- 2:27the world. If Trump is smart, he's going to go down that path.
- 2:30If Biden is good for defense, he's going to claim victory on some
- 2:35of the things he's done to create innovation and also foster maybe even his claim
- 2:43of innovation in crypto. So there's still a lot happening, for sure.
- 2:47Make sure and drop some questions asnarrasie. We might try to get some of
- 2:51those today. I will try to take a look at the charts a little
- 2:53bit before we get going here. I wanted to go over to a clip
- 2:58about CNN and the rules because this debate is a little different. Take a
- 3:01look what they say, well Anderson. One of the biggest changes. I
- 3:06think the view wordt home will see is no audience will be a part of
- 3:09this debate. It will be the two candidates and the two moderators in the
- 3:13room. There Kristin. You heard mention that the microphones will be turned on
- 3:17for the designated speaker at the time they are designated to speak in the debate.
- 3:23His opponent's microphone will be turned off at that time. Timing lights are
- 3:28visible to the candidates throughout the debate, so they'll know when their time is
- 3:34running out. And the two candidate podiums are eight feet apart from each other.
- 3:38Obviously, that's a lot closer than these two candidates were to each other
- 3:43on the debate stage compared to four years ago when we were in the height
- 3:45of COVID. You know, CNN's format that both campaigns agreed to in order
- 3:49to participate in the debate was that there would be a big macro topic and
- 3:53Candidate A will get a question on that topic. They will have two minutes
- 3:59to answer that questiones then there will be one minute response from candidate B,
- 4:02if you will, and another one minute response from Candidate A, And then
- 4:08it flips the other way, staying within the broad topic area, but a
- 4:11different slice of a question related to that topic. Candidate B will get two
- 4:15minutes at that starter question. Canada gets a minute to respond, Candidate B
- 4:19gets a minute to respond. Of course, Jake and Dana at moderator Discretion
- 4:24can ask a one minute follow up Anderson. I would note also though these
- 4:28candidates, once they hit the debate stage, there is no staff, no
- 4:33aids. They can't communicate with their team until after the debate has concluded.
- 4:41That I think is going to be the challenge for Biden of being able to
- 4:45not get you know, an im in their monitor, you know, on
- 4:48kind of what's coming up next. But it'll be interesting because you know,
- 4:53my position is I think they will mention something about crypto or block or bitcoin
- 4:58in general. I'd love to get your face back on that. We'll show
- 5:00some polls on that. They also talked a little bit about sentiment around the
- 5:04wages and income. This is another big factor. Let me play that clip
- 5:09for you, so you know wages, real wages are still down from when
- 5:14weekly wages are still down from when Joe Biden took office. You know that,
- 5:16right. But we do know Joe is that there's more jobs created and
- 5:19continue and we just talked about you'd rather have jobs from a pandemic. You
- 5:29can't credit those as creating new jobs, but just acknowledge that real wages are
- 5:33still down since Biden took office, which means watching it. I love watching
- 5:39you tripping over yourself just a moment ago. In terms of defending then Trump
- 5:43and his spending and blowing out the federal deficit, you can't have it both
- 5:46ways. I think that the point is, though, Joe, that the
- 5:49numbers show that wage growth has not kept up with the pace of inflation.
- 5:55And so Americans, you can you can present any other you know, support
- 6:00the facts that you want about the economy, but that's what Americans feels.
- 6:04They don't feel good about where they are. So I think the question is
- 6:09how does President Biden address that. Yeah, so this gets into the perception
- 6:15versus reality of how some of the things are happening out there. And I
- 6:18think the consumer, average, everyday American, they're feeling a lot more.
- 6:23They look at this as a direct hit on not only their own financial situation,
- 6:29but I think also on the outlook for families. So that's the bigger
- 6:31part of the narrative here. And if you look at the KBC letter,
- 6:34I'll kind of zoom in on this. There's a couple of things that they
- 6:39kind of hit on here. Never worse time to buy a home in US
- 6:42an income to buy a medium value home now one hundred and fifteen k.
- 6:46Comparison, the median income previously is seventy five thousand, a whopping forty thousand
- 6:53dollars less than what we've seen. So that along with with I think just
- 6:58originally what we saw all the way back to the two thousand and eight crisis
- 7:01around the housing boom at that time. Remember back at that era, that
- 7:04was two thousand and eight, not that long ago. At that time the
- 7:08gap was only fifteen thousand. So there's some big factors here, I think
- 7:12in home affordability, and that is one of the critical components for American consumers
- 7:17and also American voters going forward. So there are some keys that are going
- 7:24to be needed to hear for victory. This clip ka kind of outlines a
- 7:27couple of those things that I think you guys will be interested and take a
- 7:30look. It doesn't even seem like a debate. How's that going to work?
- 7:33Where MIC's are cut off, no audience. It's almost like someone gets
- 7:39asked a question, they get to finish it, and then the next guy
- 7:43gets asked a question and maybe he can respond to the previous one. How
- 7:47do you see it playing out well. The mics are actually close enough and
- 7:51where they're standing that even if you cut off a microphone, you'll still be
- 7:56able to hear President Trump if he disagrees Joe Biden vice versa. You have
- 8:01to have three unassailable successes. They both are president. You compare inflation,
- 8:09that's Donald Trump's success. You compare investment in chips and technology, that's Joe
- 8:13Biden's success. Next to the three key priorities, nothing matters more than affordability.
- 8:20Which candidate is going to make your day to day life more livable?
- 8:26Healthcare, housing, food, fuel, That's number one. The second issue
- 8:31immigration, who's going to fix the border? And by the way, that's
- 8:35another clear advantage for Donald Trump over Joe Biden is the border situation. Now
- 8:39for Biden, he's going to talk about women's health, He's going to talk
- 8:43about the abortion issue. But in the end, you focus on three key
- 8:48priorities for the future. So this will be an interesting debate tonight because he
- 8:54is right the alignment and also the format itself may not necessarily pose to a
- 9:00very exciting debate. It also may highlight the strengths of Trump versus Biden in
- 9:05terms of kind of almost a focus on this because you're not going to see
- 9:09the interaction between interruptions, et cetera, and as well as the audience response
- 9:13to a lot of these kind of things. So this is a big test
- 9:16for CNN. We'll see how it goes. It's going to happen at nine
- 9:18o'clock to night Eastern times, so you guys on the West coast, you
- 9:22guys get off and be able to go and hopefully get a little happy hour
- 9:26before then Bloomberg goes in and they say, hey, listen, this is
- 9:30going to really boil down to where the money is coming from. So take
- 9:33a look at what they had to say about it months out from the election,
- 9:35and this is well within the margin of error, but it actually shows
- 9:37Biden leading Trump by two points. That's a three point improvement since the last
- 9:43time Fox did this poll last month. Soleia, how many polls will it
- 9:48take to establish a pattern? I don't know. I mean, I guess
- 9:52you could look at the polls. You could also follow the money. Sure,
- 9:54we are seeing that Trump is pulling ahead of Biden under in terms of
- 10:01campaign financing and raising money, undercutting some the key advantage that Biden has had
- 10:05up until now, which is money. Trump has been ahead in the polls,
- 10:09Biden's been ahead in raising money, but that's starting to shift. Yeah,
- 10:15And I think this thing here right now that we're dealing with in terms
- 10:18of Trump's action is as he starts to reveal a lot of his stances on
- 10:24policy, I think the acceleration is probably going to be more toward Biden or
- 10:28excuse me, more toward Trump in reference to raising money through the summer and
- 10:33into the campaigning month. So that's where Biden, I feel like, has
- 10:35a little bit of a struggle here. The other thing is is who is
- 10:39Trump going to select as his VP. Here's Bitcoin Magazine they were talking about
- 10:43Vivek being the potential rumored as the VP choice. I'd love to get you
- 10:48guys's thoughts, you know, always and by the way, drop a vote
- 10:52on the poll as well. But Vivek has been very pro bitcoin, pro
- 10:56crypto in general. But I think he's pro technology. That's really what it
- 11:00boils down to. He doesn't want the United States to fall behind, and
- 11:03that's one of the things that has been happening. So that's a big factor
- 11:07out there for sure. Another thing to consider is whether or not people think
- 11:13that crypto or bitcoin will be mentioned during this debate. I happen to think
- 11:18that it will be, even though some of our guys think that might not
- 11:22be. But and that's because you know there is and I think you know
- 11:26you guys are understand that we're in quite a bit of a bubble. This
- 11:28is a we're in a front running group, if you want to call it
- 11:31that, of what's happening in crypto because so many people have yet to join.
- 11:35But right now forty eight percent believe that it's going to happen in terms
- 11:39of crypto bitcoin being mentioned in the in the debate itself, that I think
- 11:45in itself would be very very beneficial for not only this technology, but I
- 11:50also think that this would send a notice to the rest of the world that
- 11:54maybe the United States is setting up for actually building something around a regulatory framework
- 12:01and an administration that could be friendly to this. So this will be a
- 12:05very reverber rating statement if one of the candidates does go in this direction,
- 12:11positive or negative, because I think this will be a factor. My pull
- 12:13out on X last night was pretty simple. Who was going to get it?
- 12:18Your thoughts Trump is going to be seventy eight percent right now that of
- 12:20course we'll see, but still eighteen percent still said no, Biden wasn't even
- 12:26in the race here in terms of the potential. Other things that play into
- 12:30this, I think are the sentiment of the tech elite and if you guys,
- 12:35you know, you probably watch the all in podcasts. Some of the
- 12:37times I don't think these guys necessarily get it right, but hey, they
- 12:41you know, the good thing is they get some good draws, and they
- 12:43got Trump on a podcast went through and grilled. I was surprised that he
- 12:46came and very surprised, but they did kind of reveal some things which I
- 12:52thought was interesting. And one of the biggest things is the fact that in
- 12:56twenty sixteen Trump was pretty much out of the Silicon Valley potential in terms of
- 13:03support. Now even if you look at twenty twenties, also same kind of
- 13:07scenario, but a very big pivot here into Silicon Valley, meaning that we're
- 13:13seeing a lot more Silicon Valley support, which means a lot of money coming
- 13:18in. Wigl Voss I think came on at like one point seven million.
- 13:22That I think is just beginning. We're going to see so much more support
- 13:26going forward coming in for this, and I think there's a lot of backlash
- 13:31coming in on this notable venture capitalist. This is of course, with David
- 13:33Sachs, Jamath Paliat Hapatia. They hosted a twelve millionail front razor for the
- 13:39president. He also highlighted how his policies would benefit Silicon Valley technology in general,
- 13:46including expanding access for visas on high skilled workers. This was an interesting
- 13:52statement that I thought was very key here, and that was that giving a
- 13:56residency or I should say, a citizenship to any foreign grad basically if you
- 14:03go to a college and you graduate, that would be a great attribution to
- 14:07society. And Trump's talking about making those people's citizens and that would be a
- 14:11huge pump in the right direction because there's so many I mean, we've even
- 14:15run into this with our own developers as people who have come to school here
- 14:18in the United States and then could not stay had to move back home.
- 14:22So that I think is a big factor too. That will maybe get mentioned
- 14:26tonight because that'll be very pro innovation for sure. All Right, So just
- 14:31as a note, for sure, Solana is launching, or should say van
- 14:37X launching, is launching a soul ETF this week. We've got a video
- 14:41coming out on this, so we'll be hanging around the channel. Will drop
- 14:43that today for you. This is big news for Solana, and I think
- 14:46the interesting thing that is playing out right now is how Wall Street and SEC.
- 14:52The SEC are in a bit of a chess match right now in terms
- 14:58of how these ETFs are going to start rolling out. So a lot of
- 15:01good news I think still for the future of work, blockchain technology, crypto,
- 15:07bitcoin and all of that is really going other things that we'll get to.
- 15:11I want to go to the poll real quick and then we'll try to
- 15:13answer a few questions get in. I want to kind of get guys feedback.
- 15:16So will Trump or Biden ever mentioned crypto in tonight's debate? So you
- 15:20guys were even higher at eighty two percent. Wow, you're that in on
- 15:24it. Now. You have to remember, okay, that this is a
- 15:28crypto channel, kind of a technology channel, So everybody that's watching here,
- 15:33you know, take that with a grain of salt. I don't know if
- 15:35it's that high, but that would be fantastic if we do get a mention
- 15:39from that. A couple of questions come coming in her statements crypto places,
- 15:43even if they don't ask the question. Trump may bring it up, guaranteed.
- 15:46I think he'll feather it into the economic framework and innovation. If he
- 15:54does mention it, I think he brings it in as the America is lagging
- 15:58and it's you know, it's Biden's fault that not leading, and he'll use
- 16:02hopefully if he's got enough on the ball around what's happening in the EU with
- 16:06Mika. If he even brings that up, you're gonna see a huge I
- 16:10think you'll see a lot of people starting to look at this in a different
- 16:14limeline. Fifty seven K incoming? Is that right? Are we looking at
- 16:17the charts right now? No way? Yeah? All right, So why
- 16:21are you thinking that? There? Eric, We'll see Eric Vee says Genzler
- 16:25will be remembered as being the YEP, one of those for losing the bidens
- 16:30as the election. I would agree with that. RFK juniors some boats on
- 16:33all things. Listen, RFK is he's a formidable candidate, you know.
- 16:38And it's a tough one because obviously, you know, I think the situation
- 16:42is this is a two party country. Really if you look at it,
- 16:45whether you like it or not Trump. Trump did contribute to the deficit,
- 16:49yes, of course. Actually his contribution to the deficit was greater than that
- 16:55of Biden. I think he contributed eight trillion, Biden around seven point three
- 17:00or two something like that. Granted Trump went into you know, having to
- 17:06restructure and really had to shut the economy down during is so the timing there,
- 17:11But everything that happened post didn't mean that we needed to continue that spending.
- 17:15So that's a big one as well, Murray says. Murray Eddie says,
- 17:18this is a debate for or just to screw you or screw you conversation.
- 17:22Yeah, there will be a lot of that. I hope that Trump
- 17:25doesn't go, you know into I think it's I hope he talks more policy
- 17:30because that's that really is the win. No way, no way. CN
- 17:34is not gonna ask about crypto, of course not I don't think they.
- 17:37But they'll ask about the economy and what would put the America first. Again
- 17:41unless they're specifically asking about crypto, you don't think so neither of these candidates
- 17:48have a clue about crypto. I would agree with that, but I think
- 17:51Trump has a clue about innovation, and he's you know, he's very pro
- 17:56business, so that would be the other thing. Get out her bow,
- 17:59people, I'm super proud to be here with you, but we're front running
- 18:02the population. That is a good one, Tim, I would agree with
- 18:04that one hundred percent. If you're here on this channel, you're here because
- 18:08you understand how this is about to change the world. I think it's also
- 18:12going to change the United States in terms of how mainstream media and also mainstream
- 18:18investors start to figure out that crypto is really kind of the next evolution of
- 18:22financial wealth. So there's a lot happening in the in the Yeah, well
- 18:27that's a good one. Pument. Certain candidates won't want fifty million of votes.
- 18:32Yeah, for sure, there's fifty million. That's right. You know,
- 18:34on our site, if you go over to our website, you can
- 18:37actually get into our yeah, our political tracker, and this is a tracker
- 18:44where we track the sentiment of the candidates. And I'll zoom in on this
- 18:48for you guys. Biden has actually been climbing and still climbing up in terms
- 18:53of general sentiment. Trumps slightly moving RFK down and then a little bit of
- 19:00up. But Biden has been climbing really since all the way back in June
- 19:04in terms of positive crypto sentiment. That's kind of interesting, even though he
- 19:08still well below Trump. Who else do we have? King Peasant says,
- 19:14who orange piled the Orangemith? Yeah, of course it was Vivacant. Yeah,
- 19:18I think viveacant him. At some point they finally got into a room
- 19:22and either a vake you know, faned is you know what? Or Trump
- 19:27understood Vivek's position and he may be educating him a little bit. We'll see
- 19:33what if they mention XR P never. I don't think they know what it
- 19:37is, you know, so I think it's very broad. You'll get a
- 19:41broad statement. So for sure, anyone living in Massachusetts, Yes, we
- 19:45should put that up. Vote John Deaton. Yes, he's going head to
- 19:48head with Senator Warren. This is a possibility mister Deaton could take that race.
- 19:53As we've seen, you know, in some of the races already where
- 19:56we've seen incumbents start to fall. That'll be a factor going forward. And
- 20:00I think there's a lot of support here for John Deeton and his race.
- 20:04So go out and support John Deeton out there. Six trillion for Nvidia coming
- 20:11soon. Crypto is lagging. I would say that is true if you look
- 20:14at the charts, though, even though Bitcoin has been down, we're starting
- 20:18to see some movement now here on Solana of course, on the news up
- 20:22quite a bit over the last four days. Avalanche also starting to move on.
- 20:26I think just the general news of probably the Salana ETF and if you
- 20:30look at just ethereum continuing to come off the base there at around thirty three
- 20:36thirty two hundred, So there's a lot happening. Who do you want to
- 20:40be the VP of Trump? I have a couple of choices. I don't
- 20:42think I would be I don't think i'd be upset at Vive if he was
- 20:48a Trump VP, but I would look at more maybe Telsea Gabbert, you
- 20:52know, even though I just don't know if she has the position, but
- 20:56I think you need the female vote. She's a veteran. You know,
- 20:59there's some there's some benefits there, but hey, listen, it's you know
- 21:03who knows. We could see well could also see a very unusual selection as
- 21:08well. Remember when he selected Pence very outside the realm. I don't know
- 21:14that he necessarily wants an insider, but he needs someone that's political that understands
- 21:18a little bit, even though you know he understands now, he's got it.
- 21:21I think he figured that out. But hey, listen, guys,
- 21:23you're still dealing with a president that has got a lot of challenges, you
- 21:30know, So let's just deal with that in the next presidency, whoever wins.
- 21:33So anyway, watch the debate tonight. Let me know your thoughts in
