Latest / Simply Bitcoin / Bitcoin Hashrate Makes ATH, Miners Going Broke! | EP 598
Transcript
- 0:17Yo today is October, 11th 2022. Welcome to Simply Bitcoin live.
- 0:21We are your number one source for the peaceful Bitcoin
- 0:23Revolution recover, the breaking news culture.
- 0:25Matic Warfare will show you what only Bitcoin can give you true
- 0:29Financial sovereignty. And when we say that, we
- 0:31obviously mean Freedom. Today we have a very special
- 0:34show. We're going to talk about the
- 0:35hash rate, breaking all-time high, what it means for Bitcoin,
- 0:38miners, Bitcoin miners are feeling the pain, Al huge
- 0:42difficulty adjustment, what that means.
- 0:44And also, we're going to talk about how gray scale Is putting
- 0:48their gloves in the ring as it comes to Bitcoin.
- 0:50Mining is that going to lead to more centralization?
- 0:53We're going to talk about that. Also the release of stratum to
- 0:56very exciting news. We have it all during the new
- 0:58segment, but first, I want to say a very special hello to
- 1:04Kirsten Kirsten is helping organize and throw the Pacific
- 1:08Bitcoin conference. How you doing?
- 1:09Kirsten its Kristen but I am good.
- 1:13This mess up people's names with the good, that's it.
- 1:16I correct it. So I'll tell you a very quick
- 1:19story. As I was interviewing someone on
- 1:20a podcast. Once I was Miss pronouncing her
- 1:23name, she never corrected me a. Let me mispronounce it for the
- 1:27entire interview and then was mad at me afterwards.
- 1:31I was like, well, you know, you could have just said something
- 1:34early on a super embarrassed. Do you know, do you know,
- 1:38canute's fan home? I was calling a newt for the
- 1:41longest time. He's like, hey, bro, it's not
- 1:43that, it's Knutson. Oh my, oh my god.
- 1:45Well now I know, So I know cross dead.
- 1:49Chris. Got it right.
- 1:50Got it, right? See, second time's a charm
- 1:52course. And the legendary, the always
- 1:54optimistic, Optimus Fields. How you doing, bro?
- 1:57Well, I am doing wonderful on this day and just, just to make
- 2:02a point. I think it's on-brand for us,
- 2:04not to be able to pronounce words over here.
- 2:07So, this is why people love us. Well, we have the excuse, we
- 2:13have the ultimate trump card. Where Latinos, man, English
- 2:16accent. Second language not your fault.
- 2:18It's not my fault. It's not my fault.
- 2:20Auntie. What do you have for us during
- 2:23the culture segment brother? Okay.
- 2:25Yeah. Today's culture segment, I think
- 2:26I'm going to go in a little bit. I saw this article by Financial
- 2:30Times and they are freaking out. That Bitcoin is the most stable
- 2:34asset in the world. You know, UK government bonds,
- 2:37are going haywire. And there's a good little
- 2:40article about, oh my God, Bitcoin is more stable and less
- 2:44volatile than the most stable things there are.
- 2:46So it's gonna be a fun one. I'm excited.
- 2:49Are we winning? I think the wintry smell it.
- 2:54Okay. All right, let's start the show.
- 2:56Let's do this. Number two brought to you by
- 3:00novel. At this point, you should be
- 3:02running your own Bitcoin note. If you don't use your own
- 3:05Bitcoin node, you're trusting someone else is run your own
- 3:08version of Bitcoin core. The lightning Network,
- 3:10whirlpool, and Dojo all from the comfort of your own home.
- 3:14And if your digital Nomad, you have absolutely no excuse
- 3:17because now you can run a novel through a virtual private
- 3:20server. Visit nottle, Dottie you today.
- 3:23All right, ladies and gentlemen, at the time of recording, the
- 3:26Bitcoin price is The SATs per dollar also known as Moscow and
- 3:30time for now 5000 228 block height, seven hundred fifty
- 3:34eight thousand, two hundred eighteen reachable Bitcoin
- 3:36nodes, fourteen thousand nine hundred thirty eight blocks to
- 3:39The Happening, 80 1781, having estimate April, twenty, twenty
- 3:44twenty four total lightning network capacity. 4985 capacity
- 3:48value. 95 million. U.s. dollars realized monetary
- 3:51inflation, 1.78 percent market capitalization 366 billion
- 3:57Bitcoin. Is still a tiny baby.
- 4:00Anyways, I want to take advantage of the number segment
- 4:03and the fact that Kristen is here today to talk to us about
- 4:07it. Did I say it right?
- 4:09But they're all going to laugh. Every time you say Kristin,
- 4:12here's you, did you got it? No, you're just think Chris you
- 4:17can call me Chris. That's what my family calls.
- 4:20Okay. So I want to talk about want to
- 4:21take advantage of the fact that Christians here, we talk about
- 4:23this every day. The Pacific Bitcoin conference
- 4:25is November 10th to 11th. Los Angeles, California.
- 4:28Speaker list includes Michael sailor core Eclipse Inland Alden
- 4:32Jeff Booth. You have a lot of heavy weights
- 4:33going to this conference. But you guys have heard that
- 4:35many times because we say every day we promote the conference,
- 4:38right? So Kristen was going to be
- 4:41special about this conference. Why should people care, why
- 4:43should people go? And, is it going to be live
- 4:45streamed? Online people watch it online.
- 4:47If they really want to, yeah, I'll really great questions.
- 4:51The thing I've been saying about the conference's, it's big
- 4:53enough to be super fun and small enough to really be worth it.
- 4:56If you've been to bitcoin conference, let's say quite a
- 5:00few years back. I know, I went to one in San
- 5:02Francisco, there was, maybe 1,000 people there.
- 5:05You could really feel connected to the community and that's what
- 5:09we're shooting for at Pacific Bitcoin.
- 5:11This year is something that's intimate enough that you really
- 5:14get embedded in the community that you can meet to the
- 5:16speakers and shake hands that you can feel really connected to
- 5:20the community and obviously have a blast along the way.
- 5:23It's in Santa Monica, California.
- 5:24So we're going to have great weather, we're going to have
- 5:26great fun, there's tons of parties.
- 5:28Popping up around it. So for tried-and-true
- 5:31bitcoiners, I think it's an opportunity to really connect
- 5:34deeply and get to meet people versus just being in like a
- 5:38giant circus where you're lost in a sea and then if you're
- 5:41newer to bitcoin or you're just coming into the community, it's
- 5:45a great place to come and learn. Again, I can remember to the
- 5:48first conference I ever attended as a brand new Bitcoin or and
- 5:51someone who is a self-professed normie meaning.
- 5:55I'm not going to understand the highly technical Conversations,
- 6:00I felt completely on the outside not knowing how to learn about
- 6:04how to purchase my first Bitcoin or how to get a Bitcoin 401K.
- 6:08So the really cool thing is not only you're going to hear your
- 6:11favorite speakers and be able to meet them and be in a small
- 6:14enough or environment to have that connection.
- 6:16But if you're newer you're also going to have support so you can
- 6:20come up and ask us how to get started, how to save, how to
- 6:23start a Bitcoin 401K, how to move your Bitcoin into Cold
- 6:26Storage which of course A huge supporter of that personalized
- 6:31support is also going to be there.
- 6:33So expect a great time, Community Learning parties and
- 6:37support all in one place. So you mentioned that there was
- 6:40going to be satellite events, could you talk a little bit
- 6:43about? Could you give us?
- 6:44Could you drop some hints for everybody boy?
- 6:46Okay, so for sure, I know there is an ALS fundraising run put
- 6:52being put together by crypto graffiti, it supports the
- 6:55foundation that how Benny's wife started And that's going to be
- 6:59an amazing. That's going to be happening on
- 7:01Wednesday, prior to the conference and signups, for that
- 7:04will be ready to. Oh, he's ready to open the doors
- 7:06here, pretty soon. So if you like to run on the
- 7:09beautiful, California coast and you want to support the ALS
- 7:13Foundation, that's a great opportunity.
- 7:16There is a thank God for Bitcoin event.
- 7:19I believe also happening on that Wednesday.
- 7:21So that is popping up. That's going to be super
- 7:24exciting if you're part of that Community great opportunity.
- 7:28The common connect. We have a lot of people coming
- 7:30from local, meetups toxic. Happy hour, they are hosting a
- 7:36pleb party the night before the event.
- 7:38Very, very fun. Then we have what else for VIP
- 7:43ticket holders, a VIP party, Thursday evening that is at the
- 7:48Bungalow at the Fairmont Hotel. So when you buy your VIP ticket,
- 7:53you get access to that special VIP party.
- 7:55And that's going to be attended by all the speakers you can
- 7:58Again meet Michael sailor meet Cory Clips, didn't meet all of
- 8:01our VIP main stage speakers. So A beautiful opportunity to
- 8:05hang out and party with us and then Saturday, there are two
- 8:09parties after the conference. So the conference is Thursday
- 8:12and Friday on Saturday is a beach day which is all access
- 8:17like we're going to drop a pin. Everyone can come hang out on
- 8:19the sand serve playing the waves, do whatever you want to
- 8:23take nice long walk on the beach.
- 8:24That's for kind of post-conference chill out.
- 8:27And then For VIP ticket holders. There's a swan mansion party on
- 8:32Saturday. So there's a lot happening even
- 8:35just around the conference. I think, for me, the first
- 8:39conference I ever attended in this space, it truly deepened,
- 8:43my commitment and deepened, my confidence.
- 8:46It's a great way to just be the dumbest person in the room and I
- 8:50always am in the Bitcoin Community.
- 8:53That's really exciting. I like how you guys are, you
- 8:55know, focusing and on it being a social Event because I agree
- 8:59with you, I think that's really important.
- 9:01You know, the connections that you make there, either can get
- 9:04you a job, or you're going to make friends for life opting.
- 9:06I actually met at a conference. That's how did you?
- 9:09Yeah, we met a bit block. Boom.
- 9:10Nice. Like we met in person.
- 9:12We knew each other on the interwebs but we are in person
- 9:15at B Block. Boom.
- 9:16So yeah, I really recommend this and the people over there at
- 9:21Swan and Pacific Big Corner. Kind enough to give simply an
- 9:24awesome promo code, which you guys could use.
- 9:27All caps simply and it gets you a big discount on your Pacific
- 9:31Bitcoin tickets. Chris thank you so much for
- 9:34coming on the show today. Kind of giving the lowdown to
- 9:37everybody. We really appreciate it and I'm
- 9:40really excited to actually meet you in the flesh in California.
- 9:43I can't wait. And I'll say one more quick
- 9:44thing if I may there's the main stage but there's also the swan
- 9:47Dome. And the one thing I want to say,
- 9:49because your fans are likely hardcore bitcoiners the swan
- 9:53Dome is going to be like the Bitcoin Twitter of the
- 9:55conference. So you definitely don't want to
- 9:58miss it. There's going to be trivia,
- 10:00there's going to be deeper conversations, there's going to
- 10:02be shanti's being sung. Like, you definitely want to
- 10:06make sure you check out this one Dome.
- 10:07If you're coming. I'm really looking forward to
- 10:10this conference. It's going to be awesome.
- 10:11And I remember this one Dome from Bitcoin, 20 21 years, a
- 10:15party in there. The it was like that went, you
- 10:18could find all your Bitcoins Twitter friends, specifically at
- 10:21the swan Dome, that's where everyone was kind of hanging out
- 10:24about. So I have good memories of that
- 10:26and I'm sure you guys are going to one up.
- 10:27A Pacific Bitcoin. Anyways guys, promo code simply
- 10:31Chris. Thank you so much for joining us
- 10:33on, simply that you guys soon. Thanks for having me.
- 10:35All right, guys, let's get to the news, shall we?
- 10:38We have a lot to talk about lot to talk about.
- 10:41Let's check it out. The Daily News brought to you by
- 10:47bit box to bitcoin only additional Hardware wallet by
- 10:50shift crypto crypto like cryptography.
- 10:53It's secure, it's open source and it's so easy, your mom can
- 10:57set it up. Self custody is the revolution
- 11:00in the bit box. Makes it simple, do not leave
- 11:03your Bitcoin on an exchange order a bit box today.
- 11:07Alright guys so good news for bitcoiners good, very good news
- 11:11for Bitcoin, the Bitcoin hash rate continues to go Absolutely
- 11:15parabolic. In the depths of a bear Market.
- 11:18That's right. Chinese Communist Party Bitcoin.
- 11:20Took you to freakin school? All right, you Bandit you
- 11:24thought it was gonna go away but honey badger.
- 11:25Don't give a fuck and it did not go away.
- 11:28So Bitcoin hash rate breaks all time high.
- 11:31As you can see, I'll zoom in Opti, still learning how to do
- 11:34this, I learned how to do it this morning.
- 11:37Fuck yes. Okay, so for our audio
- 11:41listeners, this thing is this thing is going.
- 11:44Early parabolic. Now I know a lot of you guys are
- 11:47thinking it's like, why is the Bitcoin hash rate going,
- 11:51parabolic? Oh and let me actually Define
- 11:54what the Bitcoin hash rate represents the Bitcoin hap hash
- 11:56rate represents it's an estimation there is no way to
- 12:00actually know what the actual hash rate is every website s.
- 12:03It's they kind of guests and they have their own algorithm
- 12:07and they come to their own conclusion, right?
- 12:09But it represents the amount of computational power actively
- 12:12mining Bitcoin, right? But as we know because of the
- 12:16difficulty adjustment, right? The more hash rate, the more
- 12:20computational mining Bitcoin, the higher, the difficulty, the
- 12:23higher, the difficulty, the less Bitcoin, you're going to mind
- 12:27with the specific minor and to add to the pain, right?
- 12:31This is making an all-time high. In the middle of a bear market
- 12:36right Bitcoin 70% down and your Bitcoin miners are mining less
- 12:42Bitcoin. Now I know you guys are thinking
- 12:45is like why are people plugging in more miners of the price of
- 12:47Bitcoin is going so high? Well that's actually a good
- 12:50question because it takes a long time to build out these
- 12:55facilities right? So if you raise a ton of money
- 12:58which a lot of companies did right over the last six months
- 13:02you know the top of the bull market all these company.
- 13:05They were they were using Bitcoin miners as collateral.
- 13:08They're raising all this money right to build out all these
- 13:11facilities. Will they build them out?
- 13:13And what are they going to do? Are just they're just not going
- 13:15to plug in the minors. Of course they're going to plug
- 13:16in it but it's becoming very painful and this article
- 13:20explains a beautifully it's by decrypt.
- 13:22Co Bitcoin. Mining difficulty jumps 14%
- 13:25hitting all-time high Monday's. Difficulty hike is the single
- 13:28largest since May when it Rose by 22% the Bitcoin Network
- 13:32difficulty is set to adjust again in approximately two
- 13:34weeks. When it's estimated to drop only
- 13:36slightly, according to bitcoin doc rbtc.org cam, right?
- 13:40So again, largest difficulty hike, meaning becomes harder to
- 13:46mine Bitcoin, by 22 percent, that's a huge jump, right?
- 13:50Miners. Have been hit especially hard by
- 13:53the bear Market with mining Revenue down 53 percent from the
- 13:57start of the Year, according to blockchain.com as the Bitcoin
- 14:00price has struggled to stay above 20,000 since did
- 14:03experience an Slide on September 13th, extremely painful to be a
- 14:09Bitcoin miner right now. But if you're a bit coiner
- 14:13technically theoretically you could say that the Bitcoin
- 14:15network has never been this secure, right?
- 14:18And nothing comes close to this, I might add right aetherium is
- 14:21out for the count right? The bsv Bitcoin cash, hash rate,
- 14:26their static and they're all the way down here, right?
- 14:29The Bitcoin hashed rate is far ahead, right?
- 14:32And I think the last metric I saw Bitcoin Mining now
- 14:35represents 94% of all proof-of-work mining, right?
- 14:40So the king is doing what Kings do, anyways, so I want to talk
- 14:45about the Bitcoin hash Price Index.
- 14:47This is a hash rate index by our friends over at Luxor and it
- 14:52represents hash price a term coined by Lux, to refers, to the
- 14:56expected value of one, tear, hash of hashing power per day,
- 15:00the metric qualifies, how much a minor can expect to earn and For
- 15:05our audio listeners. It literally looks like a shit
- 15:08coin from October 20th 2021. The USD Tara, hash per day, was
- 15:14at 41 cents, fast forward to October.
- 15:18It's all the way down to seven cents.
- 15:20So if you're a Bitcoin right minor right now you're
- 15:23absolutely feeling feeling the pain dude.
- 15:27This is a this is some some hardcore stuff man.
- 15:30I feel bad. I feel bad, I feel really bad.
- 15:34But I'll tell you guys, this is a lesson that I learned in 2018
- 15:38if you have the cojones to stick around until the next bull
- 15:43market and you eat some of those costs if you can from my
- 15:48experience you will be rewarded from what I've heard from other
- 15:52OG. Miners is that you will be
- 15:53rewarded, why? Because the pright you might be
- 15:56in the red today, right? But hey man, if the Bitcoin
- 15:59price goes up 10 x if it goes 5 x right?
- 16:02Whatever you're mining today. Multiply that by 5 Up by 10 in
- 16:05terms of Fiat value. So your goal during this bear
- 16:09Market, if you are a Bitcoin miner is just to survive, right?
- 16:13It's just about survival. It's not about oh, holy crap.
- 16:16I'm gonna make a ton of money now.
- 16:18It's just about surviving man, if you can hold on, right?
- 16:21If you can Diaw Janice, your hash rate price.
- 16:24Looks like the USDA. It's true.
- 16:26So if you could survive until 2024 2025, you're good, your
- 16:31Gucci. Are this all you got to do, you
- 16:33got to stick around anyways Opti, what are your thoughts?
- 16:35It's on this brother. Well first and foremost we say
- 16:38it all the time bitcoiners build in the bear market and hash
- 16:41rates at all-time high block Heights at all time high.
- 16:44It's never been a better time to be a Bitcoin.
- 16:46It's never been this secure on a network level but it's also if
- 16:51you think about it, like the risk-reward of the Bitcoin
- 16:55Network versus when you should get in, like if you're a noob
- 16:59right now and you're looking at this stuff, the hash rate going,
- 17:02parabolic? Yes.
- 17:03The prices down a little bit but It's never been a better time to
- 17:07buy Bitcoin if the network is getting stronger in the prices
- 17:10low. What's that telling me?
- 17:11It means the Bitcoin is going to explode eventually you know, and
- 17:15we were just at the mining conference and one thing I took
- 17:17away was my friend's saying that building in the bear Market as a
- 17:20as a mining company is is like the time when you want to be
- 17:23building because like they're terrified of the bull market
- 17:25because that's when companies blow up.
- 17:27So as Nico's saying if your home minor or you know, a small
- 17:32Bitcoin mining company and you can withstand the pain right
- 17:34now. Tell me.
- 17:35Yeah, that's what that's what some friends told me.
- 17:38They're like man we're building out right now in the bear
- 17:40Market. We're kind of afraid of the bull
- 17:42market, cuz we're going to be making more money.
- 17:44But that's also when people try to over leveraged themselves.
- 17:47And so it's about staying humble, you know, and keeping
- 17:50your head in the game. But as you said, if your home
- 17:52monitor, your small mining company and you can withstand
- 17:55the pain right now, like you will be rewarded.
- 17:57And this is when the Legends are made in, this is when you should
- 17:59be building out your mining infrastructure if you want to
- 18:02because it's never been a better time to Mining Bitcoin like yes
- 18:06there is pain out there and is Nico saying if you can if you
- 18:09can eat the price right now. If you can subsidize that prize
- 18:11via, I don't know like a Fiat job or something like that or or
- 18:15just be able to hold onto them sets.
- 18:18When number goes up, you you're going to be happy about it.
- 18:21So you know, continue to stack them.
- 18:23Them non capacity. Bitcoins Bitcoins and big cone
- 18:30hit the samba. Hold on, I need a prepared.
- 18:32I need to prepare this soundboard better for you, but I
- 18:35I need to get on the front page. There we go, I love corn.
- 18:39Corn is great. Okay, anyways, alright guys, so
- 18:42let me talk about grayscale, grayscale unveils Bitcoin,
- 18:46mining centered, investment entity and I know what y'all at.
- 18:49I know what a lot of you guys are thinking, like, this is,
- 18:52this is noise. What the hell, are we talking
- 18:53about this? Well, no grayscale.
- 18:55Remember they're the ones behind trying to push the Bitcoin.
- 18:59ETA. F, right?
- 19:01They're huge. They have out of Bitcoin and now
- 19:03they're getting it to the mining.
- 19:05Mining game. And what they want to do is they
- 19:06want to offer that as an investment.
- 19:08Now, what worries me is who they're using as a mining pool
- 19:12and we're going to get to that but there is a happy ending at
- 19:14the end so stick with us. So crypto asset manager, firm
- 19:17grayscale aims to take advantage of the slide and crypto prices
- 19:20with a new investment product focus on Bitcoin mining card
- 19:23where it was launched via the newly, founded grayscale,
- 19:26digital infrastructure opportunities a private
- 19:30co-investment opportunity in mining Hardware that powers the
- 19:32big system GDI. Oh will you Use invested Capital
- 19:36to purchase mining equipment as it becomes available for the
- 19:38sale in the, in coming months at what is likely to be discounted
- 19:42prices. There's some signal right there.
- 19:44That's telling you what smart money is, what they expect is
- 19:48going to happen. But remember at the end of the
- 19:49day, guys, what I expect to happen to the hash rate in the
- 19:54coming months, specifically if Bitcoin stays at these prices,
- 19:57is I expect it to fall. Similarly.
- 19:59Similarly to what happened after the 2017 bull market, remember
- 20:04that? 17 bull market peaked.
- 20:07It was. Here we go.
- 20:08For audio is has a really peaked in December, but the hash rate
- 20:12the Hatchery kept going for about a year and it didn't have
- 20:16a at the time. It didn't have that massive
- 20:18correction until October 18th. So it was about a year out.
- 20:23I expect this to do something similar, right?
- 20:27So anyways, getting back to the article, wow, a lot of people
- 20:32have exposure to cryptocurrencies themselves.
- 20:34It's Nificantly, more difficult for the everyday investor to
- 20:37Source store, and operate. Mining equipment to generate a
- 20:41profit mining Bitcoin Foundry which runs one of the biggest
- 20:45smiling pools founder USA will manage the day-to-day operations
- 20:49of the new entity, which is the first of its kind for grayscale.
- 20:52Now, I told you guys that this was going to be a little bit of
- 20:55signal Foundry, USA on makes up 31% of the Bitcoin mining hash
- 21:04rate that Is way too much, right?
- 21:06And they just got a bunch of money thrown at them from
- 21:09grayscale, right? Remember, the weakness that
- 21:13Bitcoin has is the 51% attack. You don't want it to get close
- 21:19to that. Number thirty, one percent is
- 21:22already too much, right? He's mining.
- 21:24Pool should increase, right pool and should be bigger, Luxor,
- 21:27should be bigger. F2, pool.
- 21:29Should be bitter and pool should be bigger, right?
- 21:31The 31 number is too big. Now, does that represent that?
- 21:35Audrey owns 31% of the miners in existence.
- 21:38No, it's just convenient for people.
- 21:40Specifically Bitcoin miners that don't want that volatility and
- 21:44reward. They want a consistent reward.
- 21:46What do they do then? It's in the, the hint is in the
- 21:48name, right? They pool their resources
- 21:51together, right? So that's why you have that 31
- 21:53percent. But still also keep in mind that
- 21:56that's Foundry USA. So, you can make that assumption
- 21:59that those are minors based in the USA.
- 22:01And remember what happened with Marathon, right?
- 22:05Released the mayor of pool the ofac compliant Bitcoin blocks,
- 22:09right? So you don't want a significant
- 22:12portion of the hash rate located or mining pool.
- 22:15You don't want that located in a specific country right?
- 22:18USA's great that you know the country has a history of
- 22:22protecting property rights but at the same time, right?
- 22:25Bitcoin is competing for all the marbles, right?
- 22:28It's what is the global Reserve currency?
- 22:30Now it's the US dollar who has the most to lose if the US
- 22:33dollar goes down. You can make the argument that
- 22:36the American government has the most to lose.
- 22:37So is it too far of a stretch to make an assumption that, you
- 22:41know, the American government is going to go after Bitcoin Miners
- 22:45and Bitcoin mining pools in the USA?
- 22:48I mean, look at the digital assets framework released by The
- 22:50Biden Administration. They were extremely hostile
- 22:53towards Bitcoin. Miners.
- 22:55It remember that report by Nick Carter, they were forcing
- 22:58Bitcoin miners to adhere to standards that were completely
- 23:01unfeasible, right? So and no other industry.
- 23:05Is made to adhere to those standards.
- 23:07Those energy, those policy standards, but the mining
- 23:09industry is made to adhere to them.
- 23:12So why is that? Well, clearly, I don't think it
- 23:15has anything to do with mining. We've made the case for you guys
- 23:17many times before. I think it all has to do it all
- 23:20boils down to power and control, right?
- 23:23Money and politics. Anyways, moving on.
- 23:27So, going back to this article. It says, as part of foundries
- 23:31Mission to empower a decentralised infrastructure
- 23:33works, it's a partner with grayscale.
- 23:35How to broaden the ability to invest in Bitcoin mining during
- 23:37this opportune time? Now, fine?
- 23:40But if you want to learn about Bitcoin mining, if you want to
- 23:44invest in Bitcoin what we recommend is buy Bitcoin, take
- 23:48that Bitcoin into self custody, don't buy an ETF.
- 23:52Don't buy a fund that gives you access to bitcoin miners if you
- 23:57really want to do it. It's a little bit more
- 23:58complicated than you think. Try mining on your own.
- 24:01If you don't have cheap, electricity of where you're
- 24:03located use a Hoster, I Ideally you want to mine at home or you
- 24:07want to have a facility to mine Bitcoin, right?
- 24:10But not everyone has that that that luxury so but again it goes
- 24:14back to this idea of not your keys.
- 24:16Now your Bitcoin. Same applies.
- 24:18Right? Why are you going to buy an ETF?
- 24:20Why are you going to buy this fun when you don't have to
- 24:23write? I would even make the argument
- 24:25and Jeff Ross made the argument when he came on the show.
- 24:27He says, look if we do this right Bitcoin will take me out
- 24:31of a job, right? And he's a hedge fund manager or
- 24:33he is a hedge fund. Sure, right.
- 24:35So again, why use these things if you don't have to and again
- 24:42not a big fan because they already make up 31% of the hash
- 24:45rate. Anyways, moving on, I told you I
- 24:48was going to end it on a good note.
- 24:50This is an article that came out with came out from CNBC today
- 24:54and I think it's historic and it's something that we've talked
- 24:57about on the show. We've actually dedicated an
- 24:59entire episode to something called stratum be to what is
- 25:02stratum be to, I'll get to it. The article says software used
- 25:06in Bitcoin mining just got its first upgrade since late 2012,
- 25:10and a coalition of companies, including payment Giants, block
- 25:13formerly square. Is trying to help push the open
- 25:16source protocol forward to become an industry standard.
- 25:19Remember, the CEO of block is Jack, Dorsey, Jack Dorsey, left,
- 25:23Twitter to go work ethic to work in Bitcoin at full-time and he
- 25:27said many times before the most important thing that's happening
- 25:29right now is Bitcoin, so pay attention because that's Signal
- 25:34right there, pay attention to who that softer was released by
- 25:39the move could help open Bitcoin mining to more participants by
- 25:42supporting low quality internet connections, as well as
- 25:46improving security miners. Get properly compensated for the
- 25:48work rather than directly assess a Bitcoin protocol.
- 25:51The vast majority of vendors today, work through an
- 25:53intermediary protocol called Shadow, which facilitates
- 25:56Communications between the Bitcoin Network Miners and the
- 25:59mining pools that combine the hashing power of thousands, of
- 26:02miners all around the world, all over the world.
- 26:04The miners you stratum to submit their work and to collect a
- 26:07reward. If they successfully complete a
- 26:09new block of transactions, it will take some time to convince
- 26:12the mining industry to adopt the new protocol.
- 26:15So spiral, a subsidy of Jack dorsey's payment payments
- 26:18company block is teaming up with Bitcoin mining company brains to
- 26:22launch a group to test and fine to the open-source software
- 26:26before they push Mass adoption. Pay attention here, currently,
- 26:30it is common for each mining rig in a large farm to directly
- 26:33connect to a pool this setup. Waste, a lot of energy.
- 26:37Lee says that stratum V2 supports a proxy that Aggregates
- 26:40all the connections and only establishes one connection with
- 26:43in the, with the pool, the upgrade is designed to improve
- 26:46security as well. Today, it is possible to steal
- 26:49hash rate from a minor which could lead to some miners losing
- 26:52money. Hash rate is a term for the
- 26:53collective computing power of the Bitcoin Network to resolve.
- 26:56This Lee says stratum be To introduces a standard security
- 27:00mechanism with authentication and encryption between Miners
- 27:03and pools. The version being released
- 27:06Tuesday is for initial testing and early.
- 27:08November a more robust. Robust version will come out
- 27:11that supports additional functionality, including job
- 27:14negotiation, a feature that represents a historical shift in
- 27:18the censorship resistant mechanisms of Bitcoin mining, by
- 27:21replacing a pools responsibility of assigning work to minors with
- 27:25the ability for the miners to select their own work.
- 27:29That right there is some signal that is huge news because the
- 27:33way that miners were the way that mining pools work today is
- 27:37that the mining pool gets to pick and choose which blocks are
- 27:43included into the Bitcoin blockchain.
- 27:46But now stratum V2, assigns that responsibility to the individual
- 27:52minor. That means that if you're a tiny
- 27:54minor and you get luck in, you happen to find block, right?
- 27:58Right. You will have the capacity to
- 28:03get to assign or get to select which blocks you want to include
- 28:07in the chain. And that, In my opinion, that
- 28:11was one of the things that I feared about the most.
- 28:13Because remember, guys is what I was telling you about the USA,
- 28:16right? Is a huge portion of the hash
- 28:18rate was located in the u.s. one of the huge mining pool 3000
- 28:24basically encompasses 31% of the hash rate already.
- 28:28Right? So you could have made the
- 28:30argument that The Foundry USA could have been tapped on the
- 28:32tread by the treasury by the, by the US.
- 28:34Treasury and say, hey only accept, UF office of foreign
- 28:38assets control blocks. Now, does that mean that they
- 28:42would have been successful? They would have been able to
- 28:43successfully sensor Bitcoin. No, of course not.
- 28:46Because all it takes is just one pool to add those blocks.
- 28:49That Foundry. USA passed on, right.
- 28:52But this decentralised has it even more.
- 28:56Right. This is huge.
- 28:58I'm going to read it again because I think it really is.
- 29:00Historic, like the article said feature that represents a
- 29:03historic shift in the censorship resistant mechanics of Bitcoin
- 29:06mining by replacing a pools responsibility of assigning work
- 29:09to minors with the ability for minors to select their own work.
- 29:13There are orders of magnitude, more minors in pools.
- 29:16So if minor select transactions, it is far more decentralized
- 29:20than just a handful of pools working for industry wide,
- 29:24adoption of the upgraded stratum.
- 29:26All is one of the most important developments and improving the
- 29:28decentralization and censorship resistance of Bitcoins
- 29:31architecture. As for timing, the pilot
- 29:33integration testing will happen this fall next year.
- 29:36The upgraded protocol will likely see greater adoption once
- 29:39Miners and pools are confident is working.
- 29:41Well, this is the quote lie. He says I'd anticipate a gradual
- 29:45increase in hash rate in 2023 reaching 10% of the hash rate by
- 29:49end of 2023 would be a great success, dude.
- 29:53That is incredibly bullish. I am very happy to hear that.
- 29:57I'm very happy to hear that this is more of the decentralization
- 30:01of Bitcoin. You're witnessing it here.
- 30:04And that was one of the things that freaked me out the most.
- 30:07Because I know that was one of the things that specifically the
- 30:10US government was going to try to co-opt, right?
- 30:13They're going to tap on those large and Industry Miners and
- 30:16say hey guys. You check off all the climate
- 30:21boxes as long as you censor these certain transactions by
- 30:24Iranians right. So yeah, this is awesome.
- 30:28I hope it's successful. I hope they roll it out and a
- 30:31little bit of signal once again is Here we go.
- 30:35Who is behind this Jack dorsey's behind this movement, right?
- 30:38Jack dorsey's company block is the one pushing this forward,
- 30:42and that makes me incredibly bullish.
- 30:43And also shout out to brains. Everyone knows brains and looks
- 30:47like, they're, they're partaking as well.
- 30:48This is freakin awesome man. And again, Bitcoin companies
- 30:52working together to push Bitcoins, ethos of
- 30:56decentralization and censorship resistance.
- 30:58Freaking awesome. Freaking incredible.
- 31:00We have a question by crypto. 80 is that Greg does this also make
- 31:06individual miners more open to targeting by government
- 31:10sanctions? That's an incredible question.
- 31:11I don't know. But how will they find out?
- 31:14How will they find out where that individual minor is or
- 31:18rather to punish individual miners for violating sanctions?
- 31:20It could be man. I look opting.
- 31:23I have been covering this on a daily basis.
- 31:24It's going to get very fucking nasty.
- 31:26It's going to get hairy, you know, that Opti calls him
- 31:29high-level parasites. I call a monetary demons, right?
- 31:32You know, that these people are To give over the keys and just
- 31:35go gently into that good night. You know, they're going to put
- 31:36up a fight and that's not only a speculating on that actually.
- 31:39We've been on top of this form or over more than a year.
- 31:42Now, that's exactly what's happening.
- 31:46I mean, the White House report was damning the report by the
- 31:50treasury. The future of money was also
- 31:52damning that entire report. They are making the case that
- 31:55the future of money is Central Bank, digital currencies.
- 31:59And they mentioned, they don't mention Bitcoin, which by the
- 32:01way is huge amount of signal right there, right?
- 32:03So you already know where the cards are falling, right?
- 32:06Not to mention the mica regulation, in Europe, that
- 32:10Christine Lagarde was looking forward to write that in the
- 32:13wording, right? We still need more confirmation
- 32:16of that, but in the wording from the report, from the article
- 32:19that we covered, it makes it basically said that they want to
- 32:22kyc. They want to force developers
- 32:24and software developers to implement kyc into the wallets,
- 32:27right? So yeah man this is going to be
- 32:30a crazy fight but I'm hopeful that we can in Be faster, right?
- 32:36Then they could try to regulate right?
- 32:37And I think that that's where this is going, man.
- 32:40They're fucking demons, man, demons, and they don't want to
- 32:43give up our and I think that this is what you're seeing right
- 32:46now. But dude, this is incredible
- 32:49news. So shout out to block.
- 32:51Shout out to Jack Dorsey. Shout out to everybody at brains
- 32:55fucking keep slang. Keep saying it because they're
- 32:57saying it anyways, Opti. What are your thoughts, bro?
- 33:00Well, first off, we started with the grayscale news and I'm going
- 33:03to Echo up, BTC, pension in the chat, don't give Barry gets over
- 33:07your money, and then to Echo, what harder coins said on
- 33:12Twitter. He responded to us in the spaces
- 33:15comments, and he says, the fact that gray scales using Foundry
- 33:18seems a bit irresponsible. But I definitely understand
- 33:20considering that foundries the biggest pool.
- 33:22So, you know, just big forces uniting, but again, That's the
- 33:28worry of centralization of us Mining and we say it all the
- 33:30time. Well, I don't know if we say it
- 33:32on a show all the time but if it's not you're a sick in hand.
- 33:35It's not your hash guys, you know.
- 33:37Yeah. But I mean so like I know, I
- 33:39know, I know Nico, I'm not is that dude, not everybody has I
- 33:43know, I don't know, I just, I gotta I got a meme.
- 33:46You anyways bro this is this is our Dynamic.
- 33:48But yes, again guys, and my next point was, you know, if you are
- 33:52going to host, make sure you have a certain level of trust
- 33:56with the person you've done your back.
- 33:57On you done your research because again, there's been a
- 34:01lot of, a lot of explosions in that in that realm.
- 34:04So it's just something to be considered about the, the game
- 34:08theory and what do we always say?
- 34:11You know, the attack vectors of Bitcoin and Bitcoin mining.
- 34:14But furthermore on the stratum newsman, I think this is awesome
- 34:18and super bullish and plus a testament to what I've been
- 34:21saying. First of all, the fact that it's
- 34:23on CNBC like a testament to what I've been saying about Bitcoin
- 34:27cross. The Rubicon into mainstream
- 34:28Consciousness, like they're talking about Bitcoin upgrading
- 34:32software, Lionel, mining software upgrades on Legacy
- 34:35Media, as bullish news. And I got this comment on
- 34:38Twitter earlier. When I, when I posted this, I
- 34:41did a I did a breaking tweet because I thought this was
- 34:43absolutely like, really good news and I thought it was a
- 34:47breaking story, and someone's like, this isn't breaking.
- 34:49I'm like, dude, this is so bullish for Bitcoin
- 34:52decentralization. When it comes to mining that I
- 34:55thought this was breaking news. And and to This is super
- 34:58important because we are minimizing the threat of
- 35:00censorship with pools. And this is what we're here to
- 35:03do. Continue to build out the
- 35:04infrastructure Bitcoin and to see bitcoiners build in the bear
- 35:08Market, you know, in particular block and Jack Dorsey.
- 35:12I think this is absolutely awesome news and and I can't
- 35:14wait till November to where we have this implemented completely
- 35:18and it's out of pilot testing and we can see Bitcoin just
- 35:22continue to chug along and continue to win and take over
- 35:25the world. So we need more.
- 35:27Renergie on bitcoin. Make sure that the strongest
- 35:30Ledger in the world, is more secure, bullish, absolutely
- 35:33bullish Nico. I love it.
- 35:35I'm hyped on this news. Yeah, dude, it's dude.
- 35:40It's absolutely incredible. It's going to be a slow rollout,
- 35:43but it does give me hope because that potential exploitation is
- 35:49going to be taken off the table, right?
- 35:51BTC pins says something really hold on.
- 35:54I think Opti pull up another, he said, saying, op these
- 35:56neglected, is that another one of off these ex-girlfriends?
- 36:01Apparently this was a PTC. Pin says, Paper mining Shares
- 36:08are even worse than hosted minor that dude that is.
- 36:11That's some signal right there by BTC pens.
- 36:13I agree. Michael Moore.
- 36:18Michael Morrison, says, kyc and wallets.
- 36:20BitTorrent is a hell of a drug. Yeah, you're absolutely right,
- 36:23dude. But the so the issue is not
- 36:25necessarily the desktop wallet. So like a while on your
- 36:27computer, the issues, a mobile wallet, we 99% of people
- 36:32download their apps through the App Store of which Google and
- 36:36iPhone completely control, right?
- 36:38And that's a very weak. That's a, that's it very easily
- 36:42exploitable, weak point for governments and I suspect they
- 36:45will go after that. In the coming years.
- 36:47So anyways guys, bullish news some some and use some bullish
- 36:52news but overall really bullish news, can't kill the honey
- 36:55badgers. Not going away.
- 36:56Anyways, to check out the culture.
- 37:00The daily culture brought to you by Swan Bitcoin.com, Swan is the
- 37:05best way to build your Bitcoin stack with automated Bitcoin
- 37:08savings plans and instant purchases serving clients of any
- 37:12size from ten dollars to ten million dollars.
- 37:15We love Swan because they incentivize self custody and
- 37:19dollar cost averaging. What do you waiting for visit
- 37:22Swan Bitcoin.com today. All right guys, I want to give a
- 37:26shout-out to the largest largest Bitcoin.
- 37:28Conference on the West Coast Pacific, Bitcoin, November 10th
- 37:32or 11th, Los Angeles, California speaker list includes Michael
- 37:35sailor. Alex Epstein Lynn, Alden core
- 37:38eclipse in Jeff Booth. Dylan Leclair, Robert Breedlove
- 37:41guy, Swan Mark Moss. Nico and Opti are going to be
- 37:44doing a live simply Bitcoin from the Pacific Bitcoin conference.
- 37:48It's going to be an awesome celebration.
- 37:50Chris was talking about it earlier on the show.
- 37:52You could take advantage of the promo code simply all caps to
- 37:55get a major discount on your Pacific.
- 37:58Owen tickets. We hope to see you all there.
- 38:01Anyways, Opti, what do you have for us today during the culture?
- 38:04My friend? Alright guys.
- 38:05So as I told you guys yesterday in spaces, I thought I was going
- 38:08to have my story for today. I'll push it on the, on my list
- 38:12of things to cover for the rest of the week.
- 38:14But this article dropped, and this tweet dropped this morning
- 38:17about an hour before, we were going to start, and I just knew
- 38:20I had to cover it. So, we got Robin, wiglesworth
- 38:23editor of Financial Times Alphaville, and he goes, He
- 38:27tweets out. On the longest maternity UK
- 38:30Government Bond. Has crashed worse than Bitcoin
- 38:33over the past year or so. And if you just add this with
- 38:36some other news headlines that I've been seeing this week, we
- 38:39got Bloomberg, the most powerful buyers and treasuries are all
- 38:42bailing at once. And furthermore, Rich
- 38:44Millennials have lost confidence in stock market.
- 38:47Bank of America, says, and just to see one quote, the lack of
- 38:50faith in equities indicates, that younger Generations
- 38:52increasingly, think a traditional portfolio of stocks
- 38:55and bonds is not going to deliver above average returns
- 38:58over. Time, I believe that Bond
- 39:01holders and treasure holders. Should be in disbelief.
- 39:04Wait, no, no, no. So, let's get into this, like
- 39:09Bitcoin over. Guilt is the title of this
- 39:13article on financial times. And it says, duration, has blown
- 39:16up worse than crypto, so Robin Wigglesworth?
- 39:19Same guy. He goes, we can't believe we're
- 39:21riding this but long-term inflation linked, gilts have now
- 39:24crashed even harder. Oh, yeah.
- 39:26Okay. Zoom in.
- 39:27Hold on. My fingers are too fat.
- 39:32It's not working. Alright, anyways, but long-term
- 39:34inflation linked gilts have now crash even harder than every
- 39:37online. Bros favorite, digital asset,
- 39:40obvious easly. This is a fight to be the least
- 39:43awful investment of the past year.
- 39:45VidCon is down about 67 percent since last November.
- 39:48Notice the bias guys and noticed, you know, the fact that
- 39:51they're trying to dunk on this even though number goes up and
- 39:54I'll show you all the charts in the numbers afterwards, but let
- 39:57me get into this article says, it's Hardly something to shout
- 39:59about through. Easiest, who claimed it would be
- 40:01a great inflation. Hedge fact that inflation-proof
- 40:04long-term you came sovereign debt has done even worse.
- 40:06Has blown our minds. Just look at the chart of the
- 40:09top of this post, this is stuff. You can see as we say all the
- 40:12time Bitcoin is the most stable currency in the world, even
- 40:15consent, or even a stable asset in the world if you want to use
- 40:19that framing. But the longest maturity, UK
- 40:21government bonds in the market has lost seventy eight point six
- 40:24percent of its value. Since being issued on November
- 40:2623 it's down over Percent from its peak in December Force.
- 40:30Absolutely. Wrecked.
- 40:31And 80% drawdown for a UK Government Bond in less than a
- 40:35year. Absolutely wrecked.
- 40:37Anyways, they say to that's the shows two things.
- 40:39Firstly, that there has been a mass liquidation among UK,
- 40:42pension plans, that dominate the long-term Linker market and
- 40:45along guilt. In general beyond what the UK's
- 40:47admittedly, woeful, economic and financial fundamentals would
- 40:50indicate but only when duration blows up it can inflict just as
- 40:54much pain as a silly cryptocurrency or shaky junk.
- 40:58Vaughn and up to their bias. This is the Fiat times bro,
- 41:03Rose. So of course, they're going to
- 41:04try to dunk on bitcoin but hold on, Dylan's tweet here and he
- 41:08goes I am here once again to reiterate, that Bond are trading
- 41:12like absolute shit coins. So he's quote tweeting the tree
- 41:15tweet by Tracy Allah when he goes.
- 41:17Looks like the volatility of some UK government bonds has
- 41:19exceeded that of Bitcoin recently.
- 41:21We've been telling you guys this consistently that Bitcoin is the
- 41:24most stable at the most stable currency in the world.
- 41:28But Let's just jump into it member, I showed you guys that
- 41:30are yesterday. You know, if you're here just
- 41:32for the games and just for the returns the Yuppie Elites and
- 41:35tried five boroughs are still in disbelief.
- 41:37I showed you this charge today, I zoomed in a little bit and you
- 41:40can see that quarter three of 2022 based on asset classes,
- 41:45Bitcoin has the highest return. And you know, what do we have
- 41:49here? Precious metals 1.3 percent?
- 41:50Cash point two percent. We got Global bonds at negative
- 41:542 gold at - to 10-year treasuries at - 5K Commodities,
- 41:59never do 7 long-term, treasuries negative 8.
- 42:02And here the bottom are eits or eat at - 12.2 9%.
- 42:07So if you're here, just simply for the games Bitcoin is still
- 42:11the most are the best returning asset in the market.
- 42:14Currently, it's almost like Bitcoin was built for this exact
- 42:17moment but if we're comparing Bitcoin as a currency on its
- 42:21inflation rate, we know that the current inflation rate for the
- 42:24u.s. dollars 8.3. We have, I think it's over here.
- 42:28Yes. Have the UK and inflation rate.
- 42:30At nine point, nine percent, we have, you know, different
- 42:34inflation rates in the world and still Bitcoin and it's realized
- 42:38inflation rate which I have over here is less than even Japan at
- 42:43one point seven four, and we show you this in the numbers
- 42:45every single day. But I think this is the point
- 42:48guys that we need to understand. And this is how, you know, what
- 42:53is really happening with inflation.
- 42:54So what is the current inflation rate and it goes based on the
- 42:57rule of 72 if it Inflation is 7.2 percent.
- 43:00It will take roughly 10 years for prices to double but with
- 43:038.2 6% inflation rate prices will double in roughly eight
- 43:07point seven years. I think based on the math we
- 43:09have right now it's like 8.4 percent and even though they try
- 43:13to dunk on us because on a year basis.
- 43:16Yes, we are down. You guys already know zoom out.
- 43:18Number goes up and they are in disbelief.
- 43:22And we all know, at least, I hope we all know that Bitcoins
- 43:25monetary policy the monetary inflation.
- 43:28We are here at six point two Pi 5 percent and in 2024, it's
- 43:33going to get cut in half. And four years later is going to
- 43:35get cut in half, which means that the realize inflation rate
- 43:38of big home will continue to go down and no other currency.
- 43:41No another asset can even compare to this, and let's just
- 43:45continue to add more signal on top of this.
- 43:48The circulation amount Bitcoin right now is 19-point 15 million
- 43:53which means we are almost at the 21 million and we will have our
- 43:57monetary policy set. In stone until 2140 and just to
- 44:01add some more signal in here. Remember when we covered this,
- 44:04the other day that investors are ditching, the Euro and pound for
- 44:07Bitcoin record numbers as their value plumage.
- 44:10And remember, when we covered this one as well, billionaire,
- 44:13investor Steven druckenmiller says, mistrust and central banks
- 44:16could lead to crypto Renaissance, Bitcoin Renaissance
- 44:21is what he really means. And I have this tweet here by
- 44:24Luke Graham, and I saw this right before the show and, you
- 44:26know, this isn't not just me. And Nico telling you, this is
- 44:30billionaire investors. This is people that are
- 44:32understanding what's going on in the macro landscape.
- 44:34And he goes earlier this year, I thought most investors and
- 44:37policy makers, clearly do not understand what BTC crashing
- 44:40means. It's coming for the financial
- 44:42system and global economy because if they did, they would
- 44:45not be laughing / enjoying their sense a shot in fraud and just
- 44:50to add some more signal, you know, that the euro is under the
- 44:53dollar, it's at 97 cents, currently in the second week of
- 44:57October. So all Currencies are in a
- 44:59frickin death spiral right now and that's bitcoiners.
- 45:02What do we always say? Sats are my stable coin and I
- 45:06only bring all those receipts and to try to elucidate the idea
- 45:10to people out there that there's nothing as stable as Bitcoin
- 45:13right now. The hard cap monetary policy of
- 45:16Bitcoin is the reason why we are winning.
- 45:18Yes, the price is down since its all-time high, but it's still
- 45:21hovering above 2017. All-time high of 19 k at least.
- 45:25It's hovering around there. And what is this telling me?
- 45:28If all of the world's markets are blowing up right now and
- 45:32Bitcoin, is this stable sats are my stable coin, I could not
- 45:36imagine holding any bonds stock market assets.
- 45:40Like you would not want to hold anything but Bitcoin right now.
- 45:44And look, again, we are libertarian at heart.
- 45:47I'm not going to tell you what to do with your money, but if
- 45:50you don't have a small portion allocated to bitcoin right now,
- 45:54you are doing yourself and your clients a disservice.
- 45:58Us as I don't know if you guys saw our Greg Faust interview, we
- 46:01did the other day, but if you merely only have one percent of
- 46:05your assets and Bitcoin and everything else drops and
- 46:08Bitcoin goes 100 x like we think it's going to go into the future
- 46:1120-year. Hold you're going to save your
- 46:13portfolio. And who knows how far the Legacy
- 46:16Media can continue to kick. This can down the road, but in
- 46:20my opinion, they have lost control of everything.
- 46:23And yes, but when you see that the decoupling incoming like,
- 46:28Guys, we are living in an absolute crazy, clown world
- 46:33times. And central banks are from all
- 46:36around the globe are fighting at each other.
- 46:38You know, we had we had the the UN telling the FED that if they
- 46:42raise rage like you're going to blow up our economy.
- 46:46I think this is all a feature, not a bug.
- 46:48So guys do yourself a favor and Save in Bitcoin.
- 46:52This is not just an investment, this is not just a play for
- 46:55morphia. This is a hedge.
- 46:58It's monetary insanity and you need to save in Bitcoin because
- 47:01who the hell knows what is going to happen going into the future.
- 47:04But we know what is going to happen with Bitcoin and
- 47:07personally, I would be losing my mind if I didn't have Bitcoin, I
- 47:11would feel the rat race. And I would feel as depressed as
- 47:13most people out there but Bitcoin and sats are my stable
- 47:18coin bit. Coin is the most stable currency
- 47:19Bitcoin is the perfect money in the world and you should be
- 47:22saving it because everything else that is supposedly
- 47:25inflation-proof, that is supposedly stable.
- 47:29Is getting rekt out there. So hold Bitcoin save Bitcoin for
- 47:34the long term. This is an inflation hedge, a
- 47:37monetary inflation hedge not just price inflation hedge.
- 47:41They have debase the currency and you need to hold something
- 47:45that is secure and and not going to lose value over time and that
- 47:49is Bitcoin. Number will go up and freedom
- 47:51will go up following that anyways.
- 47:53Nico rant over jump in and add your salt sand and flavors and
- 47:57spices. Into there.
- 48:03The Applause thing isn't working.
- 48:05That's a shame. No, dude, look the I think you,
- 48:12I think you did a great job. Look, the fact that Bloomberg is
- 48:15admitting defeat, the fact that Financial Times is admitting
- 48:18defeat that fintech article was had a lot of signal in that
- 48:23article. It said something like, if this
- 48:25was just do the price, we would have seen something you would
- 48:30have seen something very similar in May 20, 20 and May 20 2014.
- 48:34There are making the case that people are actually opting out
- 48:38of Bitcoin. Because of the failure of their
- 48:41local Fiat currencies and and add to the mix.
- 48:44What, you know, look guys. The financial times is, it's
- 48:47like Bloomberg man. It's very well respected in the
- 48:51traditional Finance world and the fact that they're coming out
- 48:53with an article that says Bitcoin more than, you know, the
- 48:58equivalent of a bond in the UK is that's absolutely massive.
- 49:04That tells you that we're winning, I would even frame that
- 49:08like that. That article is it's to me it's
- 49:11as historic as the, you know, Fiat currencies or not memes
- 49:16that also was released by the financial times.
- 49:18It's that historic that's absolutely massive and and just
- 49:23over time, right inflation compounds, right?
- 49:27So it's not even if inflation goes back down to 2%.
- 49:31It's not that next year. You know, you're the prices are
- 49:35going to roll back. It's just you're just getting
- 49:36poor slightly slower, right? This the Ever tell you that it's
- 49:40not that the prices are going to go back down, it's just they're
- 49:42not going to go higher as fast and the absolute failure of bond
- 49:47markets, man, like that dude. Bitcoin is taking everything to
- 49:51Absolute School. You will find a safe haven here
- 49:55and I think that's what it's showing and I think you're going
- 49:58to see more and more articles man.
- 49:59Look, the next bull market is when Michael sailor and nine
- 50:04buchelli, they're going to look like fucking Geniuses.
- 50:06They're going to look like studs, right?
- 50:09And that's when I'm really curious to see if other public
- 50:13companies are going to follow suit and if Other Nation States,
- 50:17specifically the ones that don't issue their own Fiat currencies
- 50:20are also going to follow El, Salvador's footsteps.
- 50:24My bet is that they will because incentives are irresistible,
- 50:28right? And, I believe that on the most
- 50:31basic level, I think Bitcoin wins eventually, because
- 50:34something that I always tell you guys incentives are stronger
- 50:38than coercion. And I think incentives are going
- 50:40to win this, right? And what do they have to offer?
- 50:43Shitty Fiat shitty bonds, right? It's like no people have had
- 50:47enough of that. Fuck the Fiat Monte like fuck
- 50:50the the money printer. Fuck these monetary demons, fuck
- 50:53these high-level parasites. It's time for Bitcoin man and I
- 50:56think Bitcoin is going to win this at the end of the day but
- 50:59holy crap is going to be a bumpy road.
- 51:00Anyways Opti is time for the movie.
- 51:02Let's Do It. The daily meme review, brought
- 51:08to you by Cipher safe, don't be that person that loses their
- 51:12Bitcoin seed. Due to fire damage water damage
- 51:15dog. Attacks back up your
- 51:17generational Bitcoin wealth on steel and there's no better
- 51:21place to do it than the cipher grid by Cipher safe and now
- 51:26check out their new Bitcoin art the Bitcoin rulebooks triangle
- 51:30only on Cipher safe dot IO. Let's go.
- 51:35Okay, you already know the mean for the meme review, tweet, are
- 51:39the bullets and memes are the artillery out there.
- 51:41We are in an information War. As you can tell, all the Legacy
- 51:44Media is is trying to dunk on bitcoin has in any way possible
- 51:48but you can't stop the signal. The signal is continuing to
- 51:51Bubble to the surface and and breaking through to mainstream
- 51:54Consciousness. So continue to dunk on them,
- 51:57continue to do the shitpost, I know, Rusty was saying that you
- 52:00shouldn't be shitposting all. I was trying to say yesterday is
- 52:03have more Call to Arms. Arms out there and let's get our
- 52:05messaging better. So that more people understand
- 52:08that we are actually fixing the world.
- 52:10Anyways, this first meme is by my boy, selly, AKA at dawn
- 52:15underscore T cell and he goes, there's like a night here for
- 52:19those in the spaces. And it's got an arrow to debt to
- 52:22another arrow. That's inflation.
- 52:23It's got another arrow that Fascism and he pulls out a
- 52:27Bitcoin orange potion, he drinks.
- 52:29The orange pole shitty goes gulp Gulp and he breaks it all off
- 52:32with his frickin big ol. Under arms, over here, Bitcoin
- 52:36stays winning. You cannot keep Bitcoin down.
- 52:39And this next one, this is a fractal in creeps, green shop,
- 52:42but I really think it's a great meme, cuz people seem to forget
- 52:46this, this messaging. So we got some person here Wendy
- 52:50Wong. She goes, if the government
- 52:51could just appoint, 10, reliable people, who could do all the
- 52:54mining on their laptops. We could say 99.99% of energy
- 52:58cost and safety in comes on and goes, congratulations, you just
- 53:02invented eat. Oh man, I love that one.
- 53:06I love that one. This next one is by at stack
- 53:09chain quaint and this one's that's this is this is one that
- 53:12hits me personally. This is when I really feel to my
- 53:15soul we got a, I forget what movie this is, but the, the meme
- 53:20of three people with the guns, the first person is people
- 53:23living paycheck to paycheck and then we got the lady with the
- 53:26gun behind her back, his back and goes businesses living month
- 53:28to month, and then a gun behind her back, and he goes Banks,
- 53:31living bail out to bail out. And then we got a Paper here and
- 53:34it goes governments living War to war.
- 53:37And then we got just like a Bitcoin cat with laser eyes with
- 53:40his gun and just goes Bitcoin, living Bitcoin is, and that's
- 53:44all that matters. And this next one again this is
- 53:47a screenshot but I think this is a great Meme and a great call to
- 53:51action in the same in the same moment and this is Allenby.
- 53:55Watson has the most important question to ask every politician
- 53:58is what's your stance on bitcoin tells you everything you need to
- 54:01know, and he got a he got one of those spam.
- 54:04I'm telemarketing text about will, you know can we count on
- 54:07your vote for whatever city council by November 8th?
- 54:10Stop to opt out and he responds? What's your stance on bitcoin?
- 54:15An immediate response is I'm opting you out of text.
- 54:18Immediately have a great day. I think we all should do that
- 54:23more if I remember and I get one of these, I'm doing the same
- 54:26thing. This next one is by our boy, mr.
- 54:28Robot aka the Bitcoin doctor. And we tell you guys all the
- 54:32time we are in the They fight you stayed where in the early
- 54:35rounds and I really love what he did here.
- 54:37He goes, we are past the, then they fight you stage, where in
- 54:40the ring, and you can see a boxing ring right here, we got
- 54:43Bitcoin as one boxer and we got, I can't even read it.
- 54:46But looks like the Federal Reserve or your governments and
- 54:48it goes, Freedom money, the fight for Freedom money.
- 54:51We are in the ring right now and if you aren't aware, they're
- 54:55coming from all sides, guys. This is why we keep telling you
- 54:57guys to prepare, get yourself mentally physically and
- 55:00spiritually fit for the battle, that is about to be on our
- 55:03front. Des, our front step.
- 55:05And this next one is by I forget what WSB is, but WSB chairman
- 55:11and he goes buying the dip. Why the president warns of
- 55:13nuclear, Armageddon rumors of banks blowing up and major
- 55:16currencies collapsing and it's a labrador on the computer of just
- 55:20buying the dip by the Bitcoin. Dip, I would not be buying any
- 55:24other quote on quote dip because you're probably just burning
- 55:28money. This next one.
- 55:29I think I I think surf Supply does a great job here and he
- 55:33goes He is key and it's just like a dictionary input of a
- 55:37Bitcoin and it goes Bitcoin, er a noun.
- 55:40Someone who owns Bitcoin. But to the most important, one a
- 55:44person working to separate money from State.
- 55:48This is what we do. This is what we continue to
- 55:50spread on here. Oh yeah.
