- 0:12Yeah, we're gonna simply by coin live, where your number one
- 0:14source for the peaceful Bitcoin Revolution car, breaking news
- 0:16culture, Matic Warfare we will be your guide through the
- 0:18separation of money and state guys we're going to change it up
- 0:21a little bit today. I know some of you are concerned
- 0:23about what's going on with one of our partners Swan Bitcoin.
- 0:26We've been getting a lot of questions over DMS and in the
- 0:29live chat we hear you and that's why we asked Corey the CEO and
- 0:33founder of swan to come on the show today to talk about it.
- 0:37So I want to welcome quarry on stage.
- 0:39I doing Corey. What's up, man?
- 0:41How are ya? Good dude.
- 0:43You know what? Bitcoin time is?
- 0:45Just it's just every week bro. It's just just moved so quickly
- 0:49and everything happened so fast. What's going on with you all
- 0:53good? Yeah, I think you know you were
- 0:54just asking me just a second ago like are you stressed out?
- 0:59And I was like, I mean, not really because this business is
- 1:03actually not the most complicated business to run and
- 1:06we have a spectacular team that you couldn't get in a normal
- 1:10industry. A business that's not that
- 1:13complicated. Like you couldn't get this kind
- 1:15of team where everybody's Way overqualified for their job and
- 1:18like on the mission and willing to work in 80 hour week when you
- 1:21need to, if you were working on like a fucking SAS company or
- 1:25adtech or something like that. Is just so my experience in
- 1:28startups there's never never seen anything like this.
- 1:31And so, you know we basically get all our shit done year-round
- 1:36until there's a social media Firestorm and or a migration you
- 1:40know back in In Partners or whatever and then it's okay
- 1:43because you basically work in Peaks and valleys.
- 1:45So I feel like we all have you know plenty in reserve and we
- 1:49celebrate it. Pacific Bitcoin and celebrated
- 1:51Miami and hang out with each other and Mexico City or El
- 1:53Salvador or whatever. And there's all this
- 1:55camaraderie, you know, built up and, you know, it's, it's it's
- 1:59very similar to like what, you know, had not a front row, seat,
- 2:03but a second row seat to what Unchained went through with all
- 2:07the liquidations on the night of, you know, March 12th 2020.
- 2:11And you know that team banded together and handled their shit.
- 2:15You know and everybody was fine and it's the it's the love and
- 2:20dedication and honor and integrity of bitcoiners working
- 2:23on bitcoin shit that makes it happen.
- 2:26So you know I Feel Pretty good overall like I'm not that
- 2:31stressed out and you know I'm glad we made the decision to
- 2:35start diversifying our back-end Partners back in Q4 and that we
- 2:38actually started doing it in January and we were sort of If
- 2:41you know, well, equipped to handle it, you know, when it,
- 2:45when it came time to pull the trigger a few weeks ago and I
- 2:48figured, you know, for you guys in the audience and everybody
- 2:51like just to address the timing of why we did it.
- 2:54So first of all, we were already planning to migrate over to
- 2:58Fortress + B. Go, mainly for Geographic
- 3:01coverage. So this was just getting back
- 3:03into all 50 states. So, Prime trust used to have 50
- 3:05states. They lost New York, a couple
- 3:08years ago, in New York decided not to honor Trust.
- 3:11From other states that was like, 30% of our business that we lost
- 3:14at the time and then unfortunately, a lot of people
- 3:18are angry. We lost Texas so Prime trust
- 3:21lost Texas that was like fifteen percent of the remaining
- 3:24business and then they were just kind of bleeding state after
- 3:27state. So they were down to 44 States
- 3:29when we finally decided to pull the trigger and the reason that
- 3:32we decided to do it all at once, instead of kind of slower over,
- 3:37you know, three months or something like that was the
- 3:39Connecticut. Regulator was A dick basically.
- 3:42They are all the previous ones that said.
- 3:45Yeah, you can, you know, keep these accounts open and keep the
- 3:48Bitcoin there, but no more purchases, was pretty much the,
- 3:52the mode. And then Connecticut said, no,
- 3:55you have to close and you have to sell the Bitcoin of all your
- 3:59users and distribute dollars to them by May 31st.
- 4:03And so when we saw that, we were like, man, like that, that's
- 4:06just not tenable. That's that creates CAT tax
- 4:08consequences, it kind of betrayed the trust of Everything
- 4:11that we kind of stand for. And so we decided to just rip
- 4:14the Band-Aid off and do the whole migration at once.
- 4:16So withdrawals were available throughout concierge for the
- 4:20first week or so. And then we got the self-serve
- 4:22withdrawals back on I think on Monday or maybe Tuesday morning.
- 4:26So it was back in the user interface by Tsar back for
- 4:29almost everybody. I think at this point and that
- 4:32was over half of the People by yesterday and should be pretty
- 4:35much everybody else today and then we should have the
- 4:38automatic recurring purchases plans turned back on for Or next
- 4:41week. So if you have a normal by plan
- 4:44for like Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, whatever that should
- 4:46work next week, and that's pretty much it.
- 4:48The last one after that will just be automatic withdrawals to
- 4:51know. A lot of people have those set
- 4:53up so we should have that functionality ported over to the
- 4:55The Fortress bit go stack. I actually don't know, maybe
- 4:59like end of next week. Something like that.
- 5:00I don't have a target for that but soon, wish I'll pause for a
- 5:05sec. I'm also in the chat by the way.
- 5:06So I'll take a look and see and maybe pick off questions from
- 5:10the chat. Yeah, and then Corey actually
- 5:13wanted to ask you about a, you know a tweet that came out
- 5:19yesterday night and I think it's really really important that
- 5:22people understand this. So I'm just going to read the
- 5:25the first you know paragraph or and just kind of ask you to
- 5:29elaborate. So you said it's important that
- 5:31qualified custodian serve Bitcoin companies so that
- 5:34brokerage can be separate from custody as is law for
- 5:37traditional markets. Why is that so important?
- 5:41Yes, So if and I set this up from the very beginning, I
- 5:45didn't want to custody user funds at swan ever because then
- 5:50if Swan goes under, you know you actually have the assets.
- 5:54You can say what you want in in the legal text or whatever and
- 5:58say like oh no, actually our customers on this, but that's
- 6:00not always the way the bankruptcy courts, see it?
- 6:02And we've seen that with a number of, you know, crypto
- 6:06collapses over the years. So I think that our users have
- 6:11always Really appreciated and this is just talking for like
- 6:14retail and high, net worth individual users, have always
- 6:16appreciated when they understand that they've appreciated.
- 6:19The fact that their account is actually an individually owned,
- 6:23legally, segregated bankruptcy remote, trust account, held with
- 6:29a qualified custodian. And that means that if the
- 6:32custodian goes bankrupt or Swan goes bankrupt, you still own
- 6:36your coins legally and they're distributed to you.
- 6:38So that I think is the right way to Set it up if you're not doing
- 6:43self custody or collaborative custody.
- 6:46Right. So I'm just to clarify.
- 6:49I think the way that Unchained approaches it with multisig in
- 6:51the way that we will approach multisig with Swan custody that
- 6:56stuff were building with Spectre after buying them last year,
- 6:59that's under the bucket in the realm of self custody.
- 7:02It's not being held by some third party, and that's why
- 7:06Bitcoin Tech is awesome anyway. So, take self custody, if you
- 7:10can. The Thing to consider, which is
- 7:13maybe different for us than, than some of the other Bitcoin
- 7:18Brokers out there, is that we actually have a lot of people
- 7:21that cannot work with a company that custody, he's the Bitcoin.
- 7:26So advisers, you know, we have a big business where we work with
- 7:30wealth managers and registered investment advisors and so they
- 7:33actually have to have the Assets in a qualified.
- 7:36Custodian. It can't like they couldn't have
- 7:39the SATs just custody with You know a Bitcoin broker basically.
- 7:47Yeah more questions. Gotcha.
- 7:49Okay. I want to be respectful of your
- 7:51time Corey and I you have to leave in about 45 minutes.
- 7:55No no I'm good. Actually I thought you wanted me
- 7:57till 940 Pacific so it's up to you.
- 8:00Okay, cool. So yeah, just people in the chat
- 8:03saying you know Corey check your team's this in my app.
- 8:05I'm gonna take a more lighthearted question, kind of
- 8:08change it. Change its own a little bit.
- 8:09It says, Corey will Seattle, get the Back if so when do you think
- 8:14I think so? Yeah I think that they're going
- 8:17to expand from 30 to 32 teams have 16 in each conference, you
- 8:20know, eight in each division makes a ton of sense like the
- 8:23NFL 32 teams, great number and Seattle.
- 8:27Seems like it's top of the list and I've heard, you know,
- 8:29probably Vegas, maybe so, I guess you'd see, probably two
- 8:33teams added to the west and one of the West teams may be moved
- 8:36East, maybe Memphis or something like that nacho.
- 8:39Okay. So back to Swan, where do you
- 8:41see See the future of small and I saw that very, very, very
- 8:44important question in the chat from yellow Know.
- 8:49Your sponsorship is good to go. So yeah, we still expect birdies
- 8:54and Muppets and stuff at Pacific Bitcoin on the main stage.
- 8:57The perfect. And I got a soundboard for that.
- 9:01Don't Stop Believing. Yellows always listening.
- 9:07Um yeah so Cory where do you see?
- 9:10You know, where do you see the future of swan?
- 9:12Six six months to a year out from now?
- 9:15Yeah. So I mean this is the craziest
- 9:18thing is, you know, Monday with the by Nan suit immediately,
- 9:24sent me unto, you know, 20 hours of conversations and strategic
- 9:28planning and thinking about what what that means.
- 9:33SEC cracking down on all the unregistered crypto Securities,
- 9:37basically, and then coinbase obviously on Tuesday.
- 9:42It just basically creates this massive open field for for fast
- 9:48running for Bitcoin financial services companies over the next
- 9:52three years. The reason I say three years is
- 9:54because I think that traditional Financial companies will go
- 10:00heavy on bitcoin at the top of the next Bowl.
- 10:03Market and then they'll get something in market like 12
- 10:05months later. So basically t plus 12, whenever
- 10:10we're sort of peeking and in whatever the next bull market
- 10:12is. So I'm just kind of loosely
- 10:14saying like three years and then the other thing that you might
- 10:17see is if we continue to grow and you know strike River
- 10:22Unchained you know one or more of them continue to do.
- 10:24Well I do think you'll see something like you know a
- 10:28hundred million dollar seed round from in Drayson for a
- 10:30Bitcoin only financial services firm you know kind of like
- 10:33Lights Park deal. Something like that, right?
- 10:35So, you know, the existing the existing for that have reached
- 10:39some scale, strike River, unchanged Swan, I think have
- 10:43like a really good three years ahead of us and it makes sense
- 10:47to go as fast as you possibly can.
- 10:49So we are, you know, dramatically increasing
- 10:52marketing dramatically increasing staff going to go.
- 10:55Raise a bunch of money this fall and you know, just goes
- 10:58absolutely as fast as we can. Like I'd like to see Swan over
- 11:01200 people by the end of the We're thinking about 115 right
- 11:04now. I just greenlit with his Friday
- 11:07on Wednesday. I greenlit a 15 X increase in
- 11:10marketing, spend for Swan and it will be higher Roi because you
- 11:16don't have, I think what you'll see is the the crypto casinos
- 11:20dramatically dropping their spend in the advertising
- 11:24auctions, so it should be really easy to get these slots at the
- 11:29top of Google search results and to get your ads to show up much
- 11:31more cheaply and much more. Effectively and to be clicked on
- 11:35much more and converted to users, you know, in Facebook,
- 11:39Display Network, things like that.
- 11:40So yeah, it's frickin go time. Yeah, we got a question in the
- 11:46chat. I think it's a really good One.
- 11:47Max Trotter says when lightning withdraws.
- 11:51Oh, I already do lightning withdrawals on Swan.
- 11:53Well, yeah, I think we're trickling it out, its kind of
- 11:57with an alpha group. It's the whole Swan team is
- 11:59using them. They're awesome.
- 12:01And we will Will obviously we've got to get through this
- 12:04migration, but I think it's already working again on the
- 12:08Fortress bit, go side. And we did have a few Alpha
- 12:12users outside the company testing them before we started
- 12:15the migration. But yeah, I mean in the next
- 12:17month or so you'll see in your dashboard with strata lightning
- 12:20address, awesome. There was a, there was a very,
- 12:23very I saw this tweet and it made me feel something.
- 12:27You said back on June 6 of a couple days ago, you said, 2002
- 12:32to 2008. Old golden age of online.
- 12:34Gambling fraud, 2009 2 2006, golden age of adtech fraud 2017
- 12:41to 2022 golden age of crypto fraud.
- 12:44And I want to reference also, you know what happened earlier
- 12:48on the week, by Nance was sued on Monday.
- 12:50And then coinbase was sued on Tuesday.
- 12:53It seems like coin basis. Putting up a little bit of a
- 12:55fight Finance. It was announced this morning
- 12:57that their halting dollar deposits into the exchange.
- 13:01So what are your thoughts on? on that, you know, as the c.e.o.
- 13:05of a Bitcoin only company My thoughts on just like, what's
- 13:12going on with finance and what will happen there?
- 13:14I mean, I mean, what did are done in the USA and they're
- 13:17going to face massive, massive Financial penalties just based
- 13:22on the SEC case and if CZ doesn't cough that up and
- 13:28basically never step foot in the u.s.a. again, then, you know,
- 13:32they'll start creating lots of problems for him outside the
- 13:35u.s.a., as well, that leaves aside that There's probably 50
- 13:41to 100 things in the SEC case that are criminal and are
- 13:45pursuable by Department of Justice.
- 13:47And so those those come with criminal charges and jail time,
- 13:50and things like that. So, we'll see what happens on
- 13:53that end, but the doj hasn't stepped on yet.
- 13:55But, you know, they've got the goods there.
- 13:57These are like actual internal documents from finance and chat
- 14:01transcripts and emails from buying its Executives to each
- 14:04other detailing, you know, multi-year Criminal.
- 14:09See ya. And so in how is the industry
- 14:13going to change, right? Because, you know, the ability
- 14:15for, you know, these these you know, I co people were crypto
- 14:19developers to, you know, get in before the get in the pre-sale
- 14:23and then get it listed on an exchange, those days are over.
- 14:25How is that going to change? The whole perspective are more
- 14:29got more more people. Do you anticipate more people to
- 14:32focus on bitcoin only? Because I know that the whole
- 14:34crypto thing was a major distraction.
- 14:36Also in the lawsuits a lot of A very, very popular cryptos were
- 14:41named as Securities just to name a few.
- 14:43There was of course the B&B token cardano, which is very
- 14:46popular Dash mattock etc. Etc.
- 14:50So what are your thoughts on that?
- 14:52Yeah, I think it's going to be way easier to get people to
- 14:54focus on Bitcoin in the United States, for sure.
- 14:57And I think that will have a carryover effect around the
- 14:59world as well, you know, just call a spade, a spade understand
- 15:02what it is. Understand.
- 15:04You're buying something that their marketing is essentially
- 15:07an unregistered security but you have no, right?
- 15:09Rights. So you're just basically playing
- 15:11a confidence game and kind of a greater fool essential Ponzi
- 15:14scheme with all these things other than Bitcoin.
- 15:17So I think that the education path becomes easier the come in
- 15:25hearing about Bitcoin get confused by shit coins and then
- 15:28realized Bitcoin matters you know the shit coin horseshoe I
- 15:31think becomes shorter and shallower on average for
- 15:34everyone around the world that gets into the space.
- 15:37So yeah just kind of wildly. Bullish for Bitcoin and Bitcoin
- 15:41adoption to clearly delineate between Bitcoin and check coin.
- 15:47Yeah absolutely. And one final question Cory just
- 15:51to roll it out and I just got this over DM and four people
- 15:55tuning in. So just to be clear user funds
- 15:59are secured and you anticipate. Everything should be completely
- 16:04back online in the next couple of weeks.
- 16:07I mean, everything's back on withdraws, never paused,
- 16:11self-serve. Withdrawals, were back on in
- 16:13your dashboards. At the beginning of the week
- 16:16buys are back on for almost everybody.
- 16:18Today majority of people yesterday the rest.
- 16:21Stragglers today is what I'm told and then, yeah, that's it.
- 16:26Really. I forget what the first part of
- 16:28the question. Was the the first part of the
- 16:32question funds? Our staff, who?
- 16:33Yeah. We moved all the assets off
- 16:35weeks ago. Yeah.
- 16:37Top of prime trust, so like, just in in the event that they
- 16:42wouldn't raise enough money and Regulators would clamp down in
- 16:45some way because their balance sheet was weak or an acquisition
- 16:48falls through or something like that.
- 16:50Like, it just didn't make any sense in my mind to leave any
- 16:55user funds at risk. So we asked everybody to come
- 16:58along with us so far 0.2 percent of users.
- 17:04Have opted out and Decided not to go along to the new back-end
- 17:10Partners foolish. Okay Opti.
- 17:12I want to I want to bring you up.
- 17:13Do you have any questions for Cory?
- 17:16Not at all. I mean just shouts out to Cory
- 17:19and Swan in the whole team. You know what's up?
- 17:21What do we always say? A Bitcoin Company by bitcoiners
- 17:24for bitcoiners. So I am sure the Bitcoin is over
- 17:27there. Solid team are doing their best
- 17:29to ensure funds are soft food. And everyone in the chat saying
- 17:32funds or soft food. Salon says funds are soft.
- 17:35Boo. Is that like a CZ thing?
- 17:38What is this option? So she's either, I don't like
- 17:41crypto memes me. Neither, you know you know when
- 17:45they when they pause the withdraw I tweeted it out.
- 17:47I said I guess funds are not stuff.
- 17:49Ew, when the SEC asked to freeze the assets, I know.
- 17:53I mean I yeah my favorite is like every time there's like a
- 17:57by Nance headline. I just retweet.
- 17:58I quote tweet it. And then you say still for
- 18:00question, mark? Yes.
- 18:03CZ. Evidently uses says that number
- 18:05for means that's just Don't worry about it or something like
- 18:08that. Anyway.
- 18:10Anyway well Cory, I know your time is precious.

- 21:24that they were going to freeze the Canadian truckers bank
- 21:27accounts due to you know the protests and all that stuff.
- 21:31So She was a lady and became absolutely finds his clip
- 21:34hilarious. So did I I'll play it for you
- 21:36guys and then we'll talk about it as check it out.
- 21:39The Bank of Canada has predicted that inflation will fall to 3%.
- 21:44This summer. We're not there yet, but we have
- 21:48made some real meaningful progress, which is being felt in
- 21:52people's lives. Getting through covid was really
- 21:58hard getting through the Deep recession caused by covid was
- 22:04really hard and today getting through the global inflation
- 22:10caused by covid and Putin's Invasion continues to be hard.
- 22:18But there is no country in the world, that is navigating these
- 22:22challenges more effectively than Canada.
- 22:26And there is no country in the world, better positioned for a
- 22:30soft Landing than Canada. We are very close to the end of
- 22:36this difficult time and to a return to low stable, inflation
- 22:42and strong steady growth You know, it all the things that
- 22:54she's like, it was, it was, it was due to everything, but a
- 22:57government, a government intervention, it was, it was not
- 23:00our fault. It was everything else.
- 23:03You know, the inflation thing that is literally cause because
- 23:06the government is printing money?
- 23:07No, no. That was due to the pandemic and
- 23:10that was due to the invasion of Ukraine.
- 23:14That's rights inflation. You're paying more at the
- 23:17grocery store. Dude.
- 23:21I mean, man. It it's so ridiculous, like the
- 23:26it's just lying, bro. Like it.
- 23:29Like, lying, like lying. Like bluntly up it up in your
- 23:34grill, with a smile on your face.
- 23:35I'll smile, I like, there we go. Thank you.
- 23:38Bjbjs in the chat, shout out to him.
- 23:41She's a finance minister with no Financial background clearly,
- 23:44but yeah, it's so ridiculous, bro.
- 23:46It's so ridiculous. But I wonder how much people
- 23:49like I I bet you a lot of people believe that like I bet you a
- 23:52lot of people believe what she's saying, you know, which is which
- 23:56is the the crazy part. And the reason that those type,
- 23:59the reason that they say those types of things, I don't think
- 24:01that, I don't think if they would have said those types of
- 24:03things, I don't think if, you know, if I don't think, if they
- 24:10would have said, I don't think she would say those types of
- 24:13things, if she didn't believe that, people would believe it,
- 24:16you know, and like, hey I think this is why Financial education
- 24:19is so important. I think this is why well
- 24:21bitcoiners are doing is so important.
- 24:23Like it's just, it's so crazy to me.
- 24:27Taking absolutely no responsibility Canada's
- 24:29handling. This, the best, you know, we're
- 24:32great. It's just nuts.
- 24:34What a crazy world. We live in.
- 24:37Thank God for Bitcoin. Opti.
- 24:38What's your take? Yeah.
- 24:40Well, my first thought was, I don't really watch South Park
- 24:43anymore but you know, that one South Park clip where he's like,
- 24:46sorry guys like we lost your money.
- 24:48Sorry guys, like I'm sorry. Rihanna it was the oil spill,
- 24:51I'm sorry, we're sorry like we're so sorry I don't know.
- 24:55For some reason that was like the first thing where my brain
- 24:58went there just you know, they're not that they're not the
- 25:02reason that the inflation is so high, like we didn't cause
- 25:05inflation. We didn't print all this
- 25:07extremely, ridiculous amount of money.
- 25:09You know, let's, let's let's pass the blame to someone else
- 25:12because we aren't responsible weird the best position for a
- 25:15steady, Landing or whatever. The hell.
- 25:17She said, guys, It's kind of what Nico said.
- 25:21First off the economic illiteracy on display is
- 25:25incredible, but it's something I've been saying for a minute.
- 25:28The only reason they're able to say this stuff on TV is because
- 25:32they know that the audience, at least the people, they're
- 25:34speaking to probably don't know what is actually going on.
- 25:38And that is the Overton window people actually believe this.
- 25:41So like the gas lighting is a real.
- 25:43And again, I've been saying this for a while on the show, I am so
- 25:47happy that I'm a bit corner. I cannot Not even imagine not
- 25:51being a bit corner at this point, but obviously like this
- 25:54is why we're early. This is why we are bitcoiners.
- 25:56This is why you actually have a real understanding of what's
- 26:00going on in the world right now. And it's not that what she say,
- 26:03you know, the war is causing inflation or whatever ridiculous
- 26:07stuffs that you know at least she kind of hinted on it.
- 26:10Yes, the the scam demek I don't know if I can say that so maybe
- 26:16just just wrecked our channel is the reason why We are having
- 26:21this inflation. They printed a ridiculous amount
- 26:24of money. Not only in the United States,
- 26:25not only in Canada, but in every first world country in the
- 26:28world, any country with the central bank right now printed
- 26:31an obscene amount of money. And this is why we're all poor
- 26:33like. This is the Crux of the
- 26:34situation. This is why we're feeling
- 26:36inflation. This is why you cannot buy as
- 26:38much stuff at the grocery store as you used to.
- 26:41This is why, you know, the FED keeps raising inflation rates.
- 26:44This is why the housing market is rack, like this is why the
- 26:47Eurozone just drop the The news that we are in a recession on
- 26:53there, you know, I thought we changed the rules of a
- 26:54recession. Anyways like this is the pain
- 26:57Stacks ads, take it in the South custody.
- 26:59This is the way a man and just to be clear like like you know,
- 27:03they're clear there obviously was a pandemic and it was
- 27:05horrible and whatever. But the pandemic didn't cause
- 27:07inflation, it was governments that cause inflation and the the
- 27:10pandemic did not cause businesses to shut down.
- 27:13That was governments that made those decisions that made those
- 27:16businesses shut down, right? So we have to Have to be aware.
- 27:21Like we have to understand, you know, we have to understand what
- 27:25is actually going on and you know, I think that I think the
- 27:30mere fact that you know the the mere fact that she could have
- 27:36those types of press conferences.
- 27:38And she felt so confident in the way that she was speaking tells
- 27:42me that we have a lot of work to do.
- 27:45We have a lot of work to do. This is not a time to just sit
- 27:48back, relax and ridicule these People, this is a time to
- 27:51educate and don't get let don't get caught in the left and right
- 27:56dichotomy BS. The divide-and-conquer thing it
- 27:59is not Red vs. Blue.
- 28:01It is not left versus right is not Democrat.
- 28:03Republican it is green versus orange.
- 28:06The party of Central Bank, digital currencies and also
- 28:09known as slavery. And the the party of orange
- 28:14which is a party of prosperity Bitcoin and freedom, right?
- 28:17So you know, be inclusive in your Aging be understanding and
- 28:22be under be like, be aware of what is actually going on.
- 28:26Like be take agency, stop complaining, you know, we got to
- 28:31get people on our side on the side of Bitcoin so that these
- 28:35politicians aren't able to have these types of press
- 28:37conferences, and just gas-lit the public and take, absolutely
- 28:41no responsibility for their actions, right?
- 28:44Anyways, everybody. No more delay.

- 29:40is some crazy. This week has been absolutely
- 29:43fucking Bonkers, you know, there's some weeks and what's
- 29:46the saying, right? There's years that nothing
- 29:48happened. There's years.
- 29:49There's decades decades, that nothing happens and then there's
- 29:53years that decades happen. Well, in Bitcoin terms, that's
- 29:57not how it works, right? And Bitcoin terms.
- 29:59It's there's week that decades happened.
- 30:03This week was one of those weeks anyway.
- 30:05So quick update on this, by Nance us the halt dollar
- 30:09deposits after sec. Track down.
- 30:11This is a Reuters article for audio listeners.
- 30:12It goes on to say, crypto exchange by Nance dot U.
- 30:15S-- said on Thursday, it is stopping US, dollar, deposits,
- 30:18and users will soon not be able to withdraw dollars from The
- 30:21Exchange after US. Financial Regulators said that
- 30:23he supported freezing by Nance assets, the purportedly
- 30:27independent us, affiliate of Finance.
- 30:28The world's largest crypto exchange said in a tweet late on
- 30:32Thursday that its banking partners are preparing to stop
- 30:35dollar withdrawal channels as early as June 13th.
- 30:38By Nance us said in the customer noticed that It would no longer
- 30:41accept dollar deposits as part of its plans to change to change
- 30:44to a crypto only exchange. It did not give details of who
- 30:48its banking partners are on Monday, the SCC sued by Nance
- 30:52its founder CZ and the operator of its US exchange.
- 30:56The lawsuit marked a dramatic escalation of a Crackdown on the
- 30:59industry by us Regulators with the SEC, suing major u.s.
- 31:03exchange coinbase a day later, the SEC alleged and 13 charges
- 31:07that the by that by Nance artificially inflated it
- 31:10straight. Volumes diverted customer funds
- 31:12failed to restrict us customers from its platform and misled
- 31:16investors about its Market surveillance controls the SEC on
- 31:19Tuesday. Asked a federal court to freeze
- 31:21by Nance us assets Finance, u.s. called the the motion
- 31:25unwarranted saying it had addressed SEC concerns over the
- 31:29safety of customer assets. So, I mean, dude, for whatever
- 31:35reason, okay, if you're watching simply Bitcoin, I highly doubt
- 31:38you use by Nan but for whatever Ever reason, if your funds are
- 31:42on by Nance regardless, you heard Corey said in the
- 31:45beginning, right? Regardless of whether it's
- 31:47Finance us or, you know, by Nance International Finance.com,
- 31:52I would suggest taking your exchange you staking your your
- 31:56Bitcoin, off the exchange and taking it to self custody.
- 31:59And fact, I wouldn't only just suggest that with by Nance.
- 32:01I would just suggest that in general.
- 32:03Just just take Bitcoin into self custody.
- 32:06Stop Outsourcing the personal responsibility of the storage of
- 32:09your wealth. We wouldn't be in this problem.
- 32:12We wouldn't be in this mess today.
- 32:14If more people started taking personal responsibility over
- 32:17everything over information, over the, you know, over the
- 32:20storage of their wealth, etc, etc.
- 32:22But don't worry guys, don't worry because they got Cristiano
- 32:27Ronaldo. How did the whole see?
- 32:31They got Cristiano. Ronaldo everybody.
- 32:32So don't worry about it. Your funds are set Foo because
- 32:37they got Renaldo. It's so ridiculous. - anyways
- 32:42now in other news and I think this is the bullish bit that I
- 32:45really wanted to focus on before we move on.
- 32:50Bitcoin Traders shrug off the u.s. is SEC action against by
- 32:55Nance and coinbase. That's right.
- 32:57Two of the largest exchanges in the world.
- 33:01Got sued by one of the most powerful though, the most
- 33:04powerful government in the world and the Bitcoin price.
- 33:11Honey badger doesn't care. I guess maybe it's too early to
- 33:14say but I think that's foolish, bro.
- 33:16I think that's foolish. What do you think?
- 33:18What are your thoughts on this Opti?
- 33:21Well first off very interesting The Saga that we've seen over
- 33:26the last week in regards to buying and first we heard you
- 33:29know by Ned said funds or saw fou like we're not trading
- 33:32unsecured, what's it unsecured or unregistered Securities?
- 33:38And then the following day, We saw them or maybe two days
- 33:41later. We saw them, delish, it coins
- 33:43and now they are stopping the deposits of dollars.
- 33:47I guess it's only a matter of time until they stop withdrawals
- 33:50as well. So we will see what is
- 33:53happening. But it's becoming very clear
- 33:56that shit coins are absolutely dead in the United States and I
- 34:00would not be wanting to be a shit corner right now.
- 34:02I know there's still a lot of shit Corners out there with the
- 34:04whole p.m. bags and their bags, full and expecting that.
- 34:09Sec to just get run over by a finance or coinbase and that
- 34:13your decentralized shit coin is is the exception, bro.
- 34:16You know, like not not my shit coin, bro.
- 34:19Like mine's different this time. Like this times different.
- 34:23I kind of agree like this time is different.
- 34:25I don't think we've ever had a government regulation, clamp
- 34:29down this hard. And again before you guys call
- 34:31me stay this, I'm going to cover this in the in the culture.
- 34:33What what the response should be, but if you do have shit coin
- 34:37bag, then you by chance. On this channel.
- 34:40I think it would be a good time to dump your shit coins.
- 34:44Just go into Bitcoin, be Bitcoin, only sleep, very good
- 34:47at night knowing that your Bitcoin is secure because you've
- 34:50taken it off and exchange any exchange at this point.
- 34:53This is something we've been saying on the show for a long,
- 34:56long time do not keep Bitcoin on an exchange unless you are
- 35:00willing to lose it. This is this is the the the
- 35:03standard heuristic of all bitcoiners.
- 35:06It is not your Bitcoin if it's on an exchange, that is an eye.
- 35:09You until you take that Bitcoin into self custody.
- 35:12It is not your Bitcoin and we have all kinds of receipts on
- 35:15the show. We have all kinds of evidence to
- 35:17continuously prove that point that if you do not take your
- 35:20Bitcoin into self custody, it is not your Bitcoin.
- 35:23So again, I don't want to be the state is Bitcoin or that is
- 35:28cheering on the SEC and clamping down on chicken wing casinos.
- 35:32But hey, as a bit Corner, we've told you this like I told you.
- 35:36So we've been saying this for a long time that this day would
- 35:38happen. And I think it is becoming very
- 35:41clear at least to me, obviously, I'm biased.
- 35:46There is Bitcoin in their shit coin and I've been saying on the
- 35:49show for a long time, whether it's on Spaces, whether it's on
- 35:52here that it's becoming priority, number one to separate
- 35:56Bitcoin from crypto because people still think that, you
- 35:59know, there's Bitcoin in there's like a new and better Bitcoin.
- 36:03And I think it's becoming very clear that there's Bitcoin and
- 36:06their shit coin and you do not want to be holding any of these.
- 36:09Bo decentralised shit coins that have a corporation or a
- 36:12foundation because those are businesses and seemingly, you
- 36:19know, I hate to use the the framing of the enemy, but
- 36:24seemingly selling unregistered Securities.
- 36:27So protect yourself. Play it safe.
- 36:30You know? Stay humble Stacks at is Matt.
- 36:32Odell always says, Bitcoin was designed for this Bitcoin is
- 36:35anti fragile and Bitcoin is the only one that will make it
- 36:38through the storm. And I think think the storm is
- 36:40just beginning. So protect your own neck first,
- 36:44don't fall into the shit coin. Hope IAM marketing hype.
- 36:48There is Bitcoin in those shit coin.
- 36:50Take your Bitcoin off the exchanges, any exchanges and
- 36:53hold it in a wallet that you control the private Keys up.
- 36:56Like this is how you protect yourself.
- 36:57This is how you call the bluff of all these Banks do the you
- 37:01know, Standard Bank Run on your shit.
- 37:03Coin casino and take your Bitcoin back now before it is
- 37:06too late, like it's very simple, I don't feel good.
- 37:08I feel good. Out with my big one in Cold
- 37:10Storage mean we're we Opti, okay.
- 37:13We've reached we've reached we've reached Bitcoins n.
- 37:18Ok. So we've reached you know we've
- 37:21reached this Bitcoins n and the reason that we reach this
- 37:24Bitcoins n as because we sleep soundly at night because we're
- 37:28taking self custody of our Bitcoin and I highly suggest
- 37:31Bitcoins n for everyone. It is a it's a very spiritual
- 37:35experience you know realizing that you know that You are the,
- 37:40you're the sole person that has access to your funds and no one
- 37:44can take that away from you. In fact it's so hardcore.
- 37:47That if you don't share your Bitcoin seed with your family
- 37:50members, before you pass away, you can literally take it with
- 37:53you. Kind of not really, but no one
- 37:56else is going to take it, which I think is badass.
- 37:58Anyways, you want to make it over the Finish Line with with
- 38:02your, with your generational wealth, right?

- 39:56Anywhere your heart desires you can hit me up and asked me about
- 40:02and ask me about the swan Ira anyways.
- 40:04Up the what's up, dude? What are we going to talk about
- 40:07today? Yeah.
- 40:09So you know I've been covering it all week.
- 40:12I think we've all been covering it all week.
- 40:14Whether you've been on Twitter whether it is us on the the this
- 40:20YouTube channel we understand as bitcoiners I think I said it.
- 40:27Yeah, it said on Wednesday we you know, we had a friend.
- 40:31Come on here. We were very sarcastic about
- 40:33everything but we also were giving you guys signal on the
- 40:36idea. Yes, I know.
- 40:38A lot of all pointers AKA chicoine.
- 40:40Turns out there are saying that, oh, you know, these big bad
- 40:44laser eyed cult Maxis are cheering on the state to
- 40:47regulate and pick winners and losers in the Bitcoin and crypto
- 40:51space and we're all in this together and all this be S&S.
- 40:55Bit quieter like, bro. Like no, we're not even telling
- 40:59you. This was going to happen for a
- 41:01long time and what's it like the blade meme, you know, like we
- 41:04told you to take your Bitcoin into South custody We told you
- 41:08to dump your shit coins for Bitcoin.
- 41:11We told you to stop scamming people.
- 41:13And now that the now that the SEC is that the gauge you want
- 41:17to come to me for help. That's kind of a troll if you
- 41:20know the blade meme. It's just a little little
- 41:23variation on it, but this is how it feels.
- 41:25And I'm using this tweet right here by Odell as a jump-off
- 41:28point, and he goes, Bitcoin is designed to be incredibly
- 41:30resistant to government pressure and was built to withstand this
- 41:33exact situation. And a lot of the things that has
- 41:37become Talk about sometimes seem only theoretical until you get
- 41:43these moments and times. When there is a practical
- 41:47example of what we were talking about and for a long time, you
- 41:51know, we've seen China Crackdown on Bitcoin.
- 41:53Now we're seeing the SEC and other u.s. regulations trying to
- 41:57crack down on, you know, right now crypto.
- 41:59And there's a lot of conflation on Twitter from all corners, and
- 42:03VC capitalists shit, coin VC hapless saying like oh bro, like
- 42:08In This Together. Remember, you know, we did good
- 42:11in the past and you Bitcoin Maxis or cult members.
- 42:14Well I really like this piece right here by Pierre.
- 42:16Richard again, I am a huge fan up here.
- 42:20Richard, I will admit freely. He is, you know, I stand here
- 42:24because he's the go and I wouldn't be here without the
- 42:26work that Pierre has put in over the years and he always has a
- 42:30way of eloquently explaining what is going on.
- 42:33He's over, he's always a sober Bitcoin.
- 42:35ER and so I really want to read this little piece that Put on
- 42:38Twitter because not only does it explain what all of us
- 42:41bitcoiners know to be true but hopefully it'll explain to you
- 42:44all Corners you should Corners out there.
- 42:45Why bitcoiners are quote unquote, toxic why we believe
- 42:49what we believe and I think it's an important message.
- 42:51Anyways here's a tweet by Pierre rochon to goes.
- 42:54It's understandable, why some might perceive Bitcoin
- 42:56maximalism as cult-like due to the community staunch conviction
- 43:00in Bitcoins potential. However, this is a misconception
- 43:03primarily based on misunderstanding the principles
- 43:05that underpin Bitcoin maximalism.
- 43:08Bitcoin maximalism at its core is an ideology based on a
- 43:11rational, assessment of Bitcoins unique features
- 43:13decentralization, robust security, widespread adoption
- 43:16and a transparent immutable. Immutable Ledger Bitcoin was the
- 43:19first successful cryptocurrency and Remains the most trusted
- 43:22tested. And secure, it's proven
- 43:24resilient to attacks Market fluctuations and Regulatory
- 43:27pressure over the past decade, gives maximalist, a reason to
- 43:30believe in its potential to become a global decentralized
- 43:34store of value, even a Global Currency and This is what we've
- 43:39been saying all the time, because one is the only one
- 43:41that's been tested. Tried it and tested by everyone
- 43:44and everything. I've said in the past, and I'm
- 43:46not the first one to say this, but Bitcoin has what half a
- 43:50billion half a trillion dollar bounty on it.
- 43:53And if it wasn't able to withstand nation-state attacks,
- 43:58even single individual hackers, then it wouldn't be running as
- 44:03well as it has for the last 14 years.
- 44:05Bitcoin is the only one that's been tested in.
- 44:06This is why as a bit Corner as a Bitcoin Maxi.
- 44:10I trust the network I trust in the in mathematics and there is
- 44:15no single point of failure when it comes to bitcoin.
- 44:17You guys all running the nodes, We Run The nodes, we are the
- 44:21ones that run the network and it is the only truly decentralized
- 44:24Network in the world. There's nothing that even comes
- 44:27close to bitcoin. And then that's not even talking
- 44:29about the hash power. Bitcoin is the strongest
- 44:31supercomputer in the world. Anyways, there's also a
- 44:33philosophical aspect of Bitcoin maximalism.
- 44:36Maximally see Bitcoin as a bulwark.
- 44:38Financial malpractices, economic inequality, and the
- 44:41capriciousness of centralized systems Bitcoins birth, in the
- 44:44wake of the 2008 financial crisis symbolizes, its role as a
- 44:47challenger to the status quo offering an alternative to
- 44:50traditional banking systems that have often failed to Common
- 44:54People. Bitcoin maximalist aren't just
- 44:55committed to a coin, the committed to a cause and I know
- 44:59all you bitcoiners out there that show up every single day.
- 45:01Know exactly what I mean while the community's enthusiasm might
- 45:05seem dogmatic to Outsiders. It's essential to English
- 45:08between fervor for a belief system and the negative
- 45:10connotations of a cult Bitcoin maximalist doesn't involve Blind
- 45:14Faith or unquestioning obedience but rather a shared
- 45:17understanding of Bitcoins potential based on experience
- 45:20research and observation. It is a movement fueled by
- 45:22conviction but also by an openness to dialogue critical
- 45:25analysis a review. So while Bitcoin Maxis may seem
- 45:29like a cult from the outside it's not one in the true sent it
- 45:32to community of Believers. Yes but also of Skeptics
- 45:35thinkers innovators and activists who share a belief You
- 45:38and the transformative potential of Bitcoin.
- 45:41If you've been on bitcoin Twitter, for yes, at the Pierre,
- 45:45if you've been on bitcoin Twitter for longer than a couple
- 45:48of months than, you know, that bitcoiners hate, you know, what
- 45:51bitcoiners hate more than shit Corners.
- 45:53They hate bitcoiners. We fight constantly.
- 45:56We are constantly looking at each other and trying to sharpen
- 46:00our swords in this battle because we realize, or at least
- 46:04most of us. Think the same thing like we
- 46:05have one choice, one opportunity.
- 46:08Petit to really change the world.
- 46:09And this is why Bitcoin is are so serious on Twitter because
- 46:12this is a very serious thing we are doing here we are, we are
- 46:16literally David versus Goliath at this point and everything is
- 46:23Up like we're up against all of the powers of the world and I
- 46:27think it's very important for us to not get lost and, you know,
- 46:30having fun and, and you know, making games and and fucking
- 46:34around. It's for you.
- 46:35No excuse my French because it is very important.
- 46:38What we're doing, we are trying to help Humanity.
- 46:40This is the most important experiment.
- 46:42The most important project in the world right now and is
- 46:44Bitcoin. And to all the shit Corners out
- 46:47there that, you know, are feeling the pain.
- 46:49They're afraid and they're like look, bro, we're all in this
- 46:51together. You know, like remember, you
- 46:54know, we were the first ones here and like, we've done so
- 46:57much for adoption and like please, bro.
- 47:00Like trust us like, we're in this together.
- 47:02How you stateís? I brought this tweet?
- 47:05Well, it's really on Noster, but Jimmy song did put this on
- 47:07Twitter and I love this example, I love how Jimmy frame this, and
- 47:13this would be my response as well, but I am not as eloquent,
- 47:16as Jimmy song. Anyways, he goes how to answer
- 47:19shit, coin, be seized and she Corners during this time and he
- 47:22goes Why aren't you back in us in our struggle against the
- 47:25harsh measures imposed by the government and bitcoiners go
- 47:28Bitcoin was designed to be immune to government
- 47:30interference. You however, presented yourself
- 47:33as decentralized and hope that the government would buy it, we
- 47:35have little sympathy for such foolishness, aren't you?
- 47:38Opposed to government authoritarianism indeed, we are
- 47:41that's the primary reason we choose Bitcoin.
- 47:44We value sell sovereignty and believe in being our own bank.
- 47:47We support individuals acting as their own Banks rather than on
- 47:50alternative Bank like shit coins and shit coin.
- 47:52Those but we're contributed significantly to bitcoin
- 47:56adoption. Shouldn't you back as for our
- 47:58efforts a decade ago, that's not how it works.
- 48:01We support you when your actions are commendable, but we seized
- 48:04our support, when your actions harm, the cause you don't get to
- 48:06rest on The Laurels of what you did a decade ago, frankly the
- 48:09harm you've inflicted over the past.
- 48:11Decade far outweighs any previous benefits.
- 48:14What do we say? Shit, corner to make us all look
- 48:16bad. You should still support his
- 48:17bro. Otherwise, they might Target you
- 48:19next, bro, that remains to be seen for one.
- 48:22Bitcoin doesn't have an obvious Target.
- 48:24There's no Central Foundation or entity that conducted the coin
- 48:27offering moreover Bitcoin was designed to withstand
- 48:30governmental assaults. Just because you're crumbling
- 48:32under such an attack doesn't mean we will.
- 48:35In fact we believe will fare much better and such an attack.
- 48:38Might finally make it clear to people that Bitcoin and crypto
- 48:42on. It's Anonymous, you're being
- 48:44incredibly toxic to you and other forms of centralized
- 48:47currency indeed. We are we are not in this
- 48:50together and as BK put here Bitcoin doesn't need you, you
- 48:55need Bitcoin. People who need Bitcoin will
- 48:57find Bitcoin, repeat internalized and make this your
- 49:00morning Mantra. And I think this is kind of
- 49:02where we are right now. What we've realized is look,
- 49:05we're not bigger than Bitcoin. We are users of the Bitcoin
- 49:08Network. And this is why Nico, and I have
- 49:11taken a much more serious voice in regards to bitcoin.
- 49:15Yes, we keep it light-hearted to entertain you, but I've
- 49:18understood one thing as well. Like, this is the most important
- 49:21thing we can be. Doing as as a, you know, a
- 49:24productive member of society is pushing Bitcoin forward, and
- 49:29instilling the best Bitcoin practices.
- 49:30The people, and, of course, it's not easy, but you need Bitcoin.
- 49:35More than Bitcoin needs you. We are all interchangeable in
- 49:38regards to the network, no, one is bigger than the network and
- 49:41that's the beauty of Bitcoin. There is Bitcoin and there's
- 49:44shit going again to double down on Adele's message.
- 49:47Bitcoin is designed to be incredibly resistant to
- 49:49government pressure and was built to withstand this exact
- 49:51situation. As alpaca SW says on Twitter.
- 49:55The party hasn't even started yet.
- 49:57This is just going after. The exchanges going after the
- 50:00coins is level 2 and a Dell says, few understand this.
- 50:04And of course I got to add a mean, epic meme at the end of
- 50:06this say it with me now there's Bitcoin and there is shit coin
- 50:11guys. If you still have shit coin bags
- 50:13highly recommend that you dumped them divest as soon as possible.
- 50:18Hold Bitcoin only take Bitcoin into self custody take it off.
- 50:22Ages. This is how you protect
- 50:24yourself. No one's going to protect you.
- 50:26You think this shit coin casinos are going to protect you.
- 50:28You think that big daddy government going to protect you
- 50:31know this is the whole thing we talked about here every single
- 50:33day take responsibility take Bitcoin into self custody do not
- 50:38trust anyone with your money. This is the whole thing that
- 50:41Satoshi design, the financial system is designed on trust and
- 50:44the middle men have extorted that trust.
- 50:49Do not trust these people with your money.
- 50:51Take your Bitcoin in the self custody.
- 50:52I don't care where you get your Bitcoin from.
- 50:54Just make sure you take your Bitcoin into self custody
- 50:56because you cannot trust these people to not exploit.
- 50:59You we've seen this happen over hundreds of years.
- 51:03It's a common human occurrence. If you give people your money,
- 51:08they hold it long enough, they're going to abuse you.
- 51:12We don't have to, we don't have to take the abuse anymore.
- 51:14Anyway, I think I ranted enough. Boom, dropping hot fire.
- 51:18Holy We have to do more culture have to do more culture
- 51:21segments, like that? That was that was that was
- 51:23inspirational Opti opt he's back, he's back with a vengeance

- 1:02:40gotta educate people, we gotta wake up people to the reality
- 1:02:43that is not left versus right, it´s, Orange versus green.

- 1:02:50eyes and be inclusive in your language, be understanding of
- 1:02:53people's. You know, differences and, you
- 1:02:56know, you know, backgrounds and religions and all that and none
