Latest / Simply Bitcoin / Trump Declares WAR on JP Morgan | The Battle Nobody Saw Coming! | Bitcoin Simply
Transcript
- 0:00Did you know JP Morgan sold off 25% of their MicroStrategy
- 0:03shares? As if they knew that MSCI said
- 0:06that Bitcoin treasury companies were unlikely to be included in
- 0:09the index. Perfect timing.
- 0:11In our last episode Friday, I talked about how JP Morgan was
- 0:14potentially manipulating the MicroStrategy stock.
- 0:16Well, an article from Marilyn Hoddle with over 1 million views
- 0:21articulates perfectly what I suspected was happening.
- 0:24Trump in the White House are battling JP Morgan in the
- 0:27establishment. There's a battle going on under
- 0:29the Trump versus the Morgans, the White House versus Wall
- 0:34Street, the Treasury versus the Fed. 1 is fighting for
- 0:38centralized control. The other is fighting for
- 0:40decentralized freedom. If I'm reading between the lines
- 0:43correctly, I think that the Trump family would love nothing
- 0:46more than to see the banks crumble.
- 0:48Donald Trump declared war on the head of the US banking system
- 0:51when it named JP Morgan and Chase Bank, amongst a number of
- 0:55other people, a number of other people involved in a case that
- 0:58will bring this country to its knees.
- 1:00And he ordered that the Epstein files be released in 30 days on
- 1:04the 250th anniversary of the United States in July.
- 1:07I believe that this administration is going to make
- 1:09a major chess move, a move to try to supplant the old
- 1:12financial system with the new one.
- 1:14Why do you think Bo Hines left the White House so abruptly to
- 1:17go work for Tether? The fight for systematic control
- 1:20from the Fed and the banks in the Wall Street is happening
- 1:23against Bitcoin stable coins in the White House.
- 1:25That's the volatility we've been seeing.
- 1:27We're in the beginning of an economic civil war and we're
- 1:30going to dive into it today. This is Dante Coco Bitcoin.
- 1:33Simply, let's go. The banks have had a monopoly on
- 1:40the financial system for years and they did everything they
- 1:43could to not embrace cryptocurrency until they
- 1:45realized that cryptocurrency had become so big that if they
- 1:48didn't embrace it, they died. They saw the growth of Coinbase,
- 1:51they saw the growth of Robin Hood, they saw the growth of,
- 1:54of, of defy. They saw the trillions going
- 1:56into to Bitcoin and in these major capital markets.
- 1:59And now all of a sudden all the banks are embracing it.
- 2:02But I got into cryptocurrency because I didn't have a damn
- 2:04choice. They debanked me for doing
- 2:06absolutely nothing wrong. These are golf courses.
- 2:09These are golf courses in upstate New York.
- 2:10These are restaurants. These are assets that have
- 2:13hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of of employees and
- 2:16members. Literally, you know, you're
- 2:18getting a letter your, your accounts are hereby cancelled
- 2:22and you can't pay your employees.
- 2:23They could can't put bread on their table because they didn't
- 2:26like your political affiliation. It wasn't even, you know, my
- 2:30father's political affiliation. He was the one.
- 2:31I'm, I'm not, I'm not a politician.
- 2:33I'm not in politics. And yet we were cancelled like
- 2:36we were dogs and honestly it was a blessing in disguise because
- 2:39it made me find cryptocurrency and I'm so happy.
- 2:42If this clip doesn't sound like the backdrop or the setup from a
- 2:45Christopher Nolan movie for a hero or a villain, then I don't
- 2:48know what does. He said that we were canceled
- 2:51like dogs. The Trump family has been very
- 2:53vocal about their distrust of the banking system, specifically
- 2:56after they were debanked for their political views, them and
- 3:00other cryptocurrencies. Listen to this clip of Eric
- 3:03Trump talking about how he would love nothing more than for the
- 3:06cryptocurrency movement to supplant the banks altogether.
- 3:10Our financial system is so dishonest.
- 3:12It is so incredibly dishonest, and I would love nothing more
- 3:15than to see blockchain replace so many of these institutions
- 3:18that have been so punitive to so many people.
- 3:21Let me give you 1 of this. The people in our financial
- 3:24system who have had always had the advantage are guys like us,
- 3:28right? Powerful companies with famous
- 3:30last names with a lot of zeros on the balance sheet.
- 3:33They have been the worst for the average retail consumer who
- 3:37doesn't stand a chance against the traditional financial
- 3:41system. They have no leverage, they have
- 3:43no negotiation power, and they get feed to death.
- 3:47Crypto solves all of that. Blockchain solves all of that.
- 3:50There is nothing that can't be done on blockchain that JP
- 3:53Morgan Chase can do that Bank of America that can't be done
- 3:56better, faster, cheaper, and more transparently.
- 4:00And I think that's a wonderful thing for humanity.
- 4:02I think that's a wonderful thing for for the people of our
- 4:04country. And I think that's a wonderful
- 4:06thing in putting real checks and balances on on the very people
- 4:09who weaponized the financial system against people that they
- 4:11didn't like for political risks. The Joker is revealing himself
- 4:15in real time and what was a private matter with Eric Trump
- 4:19and their private companies is now becoming a public matter.
- 4:22As soon as Donald Trump posted this on True Social talking
- 4:25about JP Morgan and Chase being implicated amongst a number of
- 4:28other people in the Epstein case.
- 4:30A case that would bring the United States to its knees if
- 4:33released. And now the Justice Department
- 4:35after this bill that he signed on Thursday has just 30 days to
- 4:39release the files. This is going to be the first
- 4:41hostile act performed in this economic.
- 4:44But that's the front page news. What's happening in the
- 4:46background? Well, the Treasury has been
- 4:49building new financial plumbing through stable coins.
- 4:51Tether is the main way this administration is going to usurp
- 4:55the banks. This is exactly why they sent
- 4:57Bohinds there in the 1st place. They needed a Washington
- 5:00connection and Tether is much bigger than people think.
- 5:03Look at this clip that Bohinds just posted on Twitter.
- 5:05Let's take a listen to the clip. I had dinner last night with
- 5:08Paulo Arduino, CEO, founder of Tether.
- 5:11Can't wait to meet him. Amazing, amazing guy.
- 5:14That is an incredible business. What?
- 5:17Do they got 150? Billion in treasuries.
- 5:19Now it is, it is an incredible and here's why that business is
- 5:22incredible. This is what I want you talking
- 5:24about. Tether, the stable.
- 5:25Tether, the stable coin. Yes, there are 500 million
- 5:30people using U.S. dollar backed stable coins from Tether all
- 5:34around the world, all over Africa, all over Central
- 5:37America, all over Asia #1 #2 his user base is growing by 30
- 5:42million users 1/4. It's the financial inclusion
- 5:48that then ties back to U dollar hegemony is unbelievable when?
- 5:53You dig down to the mechanics of what's happening. the United
- 5:56States needs a new buyer of its debt to sustain itself.
- 6:00We're running at a debt deficit of 5 to 6% of GDP.
- 6:04And so when institutions in foreign countries no longer buy
- 6:07our debt, well, we need a new buyer.
- 6:09And we get a new buyer of debt. Anytime anyone in the world
- 6:12wants a tethered dollar or a USD T, they buy short term
- 6:16treasuries. When people get these synthetic
- 6:18dollars, therefore the new buyer of dollars is going to be
- 6:20everyday people. They're looking to replace the
- 6:22financial system. Here's a clip from Bo Hines and
- 6:25Paolo himself. I'll.
- 6:26Start with Genius, because our intention with Genius was to get
- 6:30the best and brightest back to the US in order to innovate and
- 6:34build and be interoperable with our capital markets.
- 6:38And that's what we've done today in launching this product.
- 6:41So obviously, our goal is to revolutionize the financial
- 6:43system. It's to create more efficient
- 6:45transactions with instant settlement times that are more
- 6:48cost effective for the American consumer.
- 6:50If this isn't a shot at the banks and I don't know what is,
- 6:52but Dante, what does this have to do with Bitcoin?
- 6:55Well, let me show you, Bitcoin is actually the future
- 6:59evolution. All of these beginning acts.
- 7:01Listen to this clip from an interview that Nico did with
- 7:04Paulo just a few weeks ago. How?
- 7:06Do you feel as the PO of the most profitable company on
- 7:10planet earth? How do you feel about Bitcoin?
- 7:13Are we still early? Are you feeling bullish?
- 7:15Every time we get an interest from well we we got the
- 7:20interest. We make money on the interest on
- 7:21the US surgeries we buy Bitcoin and gold.
- 7:25We own all together with the with the tether owns more than
- 7:29110,120 thousand Bitcoin. Just last quarter we bought 8888
- 7:36Bitcoin. And I'm very bullish on Bitcoin
- 7:38simply because I I like to think about the future in, in logical
- 7:43steps and most probable outcomes.
- 7:45And I fail to understand, you know, given enough amount of
- 7:50time, it's hard to predict it's like 10 years or 50.
- 7:53But I fail to to to understand how Bitcoin will not be the most
- 7:57used currency in the world and will be the the check and
- 8:00balances of the world as a currency before.
- 8:02We go any further in the clip, it does get better.
- 8:05Let's thank our sponsors. Lenin has been the leader in
- 8:07Bitcoin back loan since 2018, issuing over $9 billion worth of
- 8:11loans to 10s of thousands of customers across the globe.
- 8:14Lenin is just one of the many Bitcoin companies that align
- 8:17around the value of never sell your Bitcoin, except they give
- 8:20you a tangible way to do that, to borrow against it without
- 8:23selling it. If you want a $1000 Fiat loan
- 8:26but don't want to sell your Bitcoin, well, post $2000 of
- 8:29Bitcoin collateral. Fiat is in your account in less
- 8:31than six hours and the application takes just two
- 8:33minutes. Go to learn dot Lennon dot AO
- 8:36slash simply to get .25% off your first loan.
- 8:39These loans start at just 12.4% and again, there's no credit
- 8:42check. Repay them at any time.
- 8:44Go to learn dot Lennon dot AO slash simply to get started.
- 8:47Oh, in the Bitcoin way, the way that you learn now to become
- 8:50sovereign is you start practicing.

- 8:55basics of how to remove your Bitcoin from an exchange after
- 8:58you purchase it. Well, you can schedule a free 30
- 9:00minute consultation with the team at the bitcoinway.com.

- 9:16the bitcoinway.com/simplybitcoin.
- 9:19Today is still, I think we are early because it's it's a
- 9:22cultural thing, right? If you put you take a person,
- 9:26you put in front of that person 2 currencies, one that is made
- 9:31by a human and now one that is made by math.
- 9:35So by you know the physics of the universe.
- 9:39Still most of the people prefer the one made by humans.
- 9:42To me it's very crazy because you should trust the universe,
- 9:45you should trust us math right? So you know, you've been totally
- 9:47in school that math is this amazing thing that is, can, can
- 9:52create proofs that can be, can never, cannot be destroyed, even
- 9:56bought by God. And, and, and on the other side,
- 9:59you have a human that change every four years and might wake
- 10:01up one day and change the monetary policy.
- 10:04But still, people still prefer and, and many people prefer like
- 10:08the, the, the, the human money. And to me means that we are very
- 10:12early, but that's one of these things that could happen in the
- 10:15future and it's it happened a few times in the past, is the
- 10:19fact that could be an event in the world that will be so
- 10:22catastrophic that will force everyone to be onto Bitcoin very
- 10:26quickly. And I'm not hoping for that, of
- 10:28course, that would be very bad. But I think that we need to
- 10:31think about the fact and what we should be doing in order to
- 10:34prepare for even an event like that.
- 10:37Hopefully there will be gradual adoption, but I think we are
- 10:40actually not ready for a surge in Bitcoin.
- 10:44So I think the price we got today is the right price for
- 10:47today. Markets are always right, but
- 10:49independent from that. All right, back to the episode.
- 10:51Did you hear that he actually loves dips like these?
- 10:55He doesn't want the price to explode fast.
- 10:57This gives his company, one of the most profitable companies in
- 11:00the world, a way to gradually and continually buy more
- 11:02Bitcoin. He's one of the most financially
- 11:04savvy and powerful men in the world right now.
- 11:06And he's putting his money where his mouth is because every time
- 11:09they earn money on the interest payments, what do they do?
- 11:13They buy Bitcoin and gold, hard sovereign assets.
- 11:17And he believes that we're still early.
- 11:18The move from a human based currency system to a math based
- 11:21currency system is just beginning.
- 11:23So right now you may see the dislocation in the markets with
- 11:26gold being the best performing asset at 55% this year and
- 11:30Bitcoin being down 9%. But you have to take a long term
- 11:34view. Look at this chart.
- 11:35Bitcoin is no stranger to being the worst performing asset in
- 11:38the world. In fact, it's been the worst
- 11:40performing asset three other times, but look at the last 11.
- 11:43It's been the best performing asset in the world 11 out of the
- 11:46last 14 years and the best overall performing asset on this
- 11:49chart by a mile. Don't be shaken out of your
- 11:52positions. You're going to continue to hear
- 11:54more and more FUD like this from the CEO of Vanek.
- 11:58There's something else going on with the Bitcoin community that
- 12:01kind of non crypto people need to know about and that is
- 12:05ultimately Vanek has been around before Bitcoin.
- 12:08We will walk away from Bitcoin if we think the thesis is
- 12:11fundamentally broken. We don't right now, but you
- 12:13always have to look at the underlying technology and the
- 12:16crypto. Sorry, the Bitcoin community has
- 12:18been asking itself about is there enough encryption in
- 12:22Bitcoin because quantum computing is coming and so and
- 12:26then secondly, is there enough privacy in Bitcoin?
- 12:29And so a lot of Bitcoin Ogs or Maxis have been looking at Z
- 12:33cash and Z what's that Z Cash has is a token.
- 12:38It's sort of related to Bitcoin with a lot more privacy because
- 12:41you know, the kind of garbage that we got about Bitcoin four
- 12:44years ago is it's like used to for all bad illicit behaviour.
- 12:47But now everyone kind of realizes when you move money
- 12:50around on the Bitcoin blockchain, you can see it, you
- 12:53can see it move from one wallet to another.
- 12:55And a lot of people are looking for more privacy.
- 12:58Point #1 If quantum computing actually comes, why would we be
- 13:02worried about Bitcoin? First, we wouldn't be worried
- 13:04about nuclear codes. We wouldn't be worried about our
- 13:07bank accounts. We wouldn't be worried about our
- 13:09passcodes to every Internet service that we have in the
- 13:12world. We would be worried about
- 13:13Bitcoin, a $2 trillion asset. Next, no maxi that I know is
- 13:18actually talking about Z cash. Understand that this is just an
- 13:22IQ test, and the people who are able to sustain themselves and
- 13:26not look to the left or to the right during this cycle are
- 13:29going to be the ones that win in the long term.
- 13:32They'll be called stupid now, but smart 20 years from now.
- 13:35The battle for economic power is happening between the old guard
- 13:38and the new guard, and Bitcoin is at the center of it.
- 13:40When dollars are minted through Tether, the new weapon for the
- 13:43new guard, they're buying Bitcoin.
- 13:46What are you doing? One of the ways that you can
- 13:47continue earning Bitcoin while you sleep so that you don't have
- 13:50to just go and hit a button or buy on an exchange when you see
- 13:53a dip, is through mining Bitcoin.
- 13:55It's another way to get sats directly into your wallet
- 13:58without using U.S. dollars. Well, you do that through buying
- 14:01a state-of-the-art mining rig through SAS Mining, and they
- 14:05have no markups, no middle men, or no contracts in between.
- 14:08It's just you and your sats and your machines working for you.
- 14:11And if you care about the environment, they do this
- 14:13through 100% carbon free energy and 100% renewable energy.
- 14:17They're aligned with your values and they only make money as a
- 14:20company when you make money. Use the QR code on the screen to
- 14:24get started to mindsets while you sleep and become a more
- 14:27sovereign individual. This is Dante Cook with Bitcoin.
- 14:30Simply happy stacking.
