America's Strategic Bitcoin Reserve GONE!! | Simply Originals · Simply Bitcoin

• 0:00
  Well, the US government just pulled a Houdini with America's
• 0:03
  strategic Bitcoin Reserve 171,000 Bitcoin God vanished off
• 0:10
  the books. No Unchained trace, no audit
• 0:13
  trail, no explanation. We now know, thanks to a Freedom
• 0:18
  of Information request, the US Marshals Service only holds
• 0:22
  28,988 BTC. That's 85% less than Arkham
• 0:27
  Intelligence and other trackers have estimated.
• 0:30
  That's 20 billion in digital gold missing.
• 0:34
  And just as Trump's laying the groundwork for a strategic
• 0:37
  Bitcoin reserve, we find out that the Bitcoin isn't there.
• 0:42
  Meanwhile, Elizabeth Warren is going postal.
• 0:45
  Congress just banned CBDC's. Vanguard's being dragged kicking
• 0:50
  and screaming into Bitcoin exposure.
• 0:52
  CNBC's talking $13 million Bitcoin.
• 0:56
  And Michael Saylor says micro strategy will be added to the S
• 0:59
  and and P500. This isn't just a bull run.
• 1:02
  This is the collapse of trust. The fall of Fiat and the rise of
• 1:07
  Bitcoin is the hardest money ever created or discovered.
• 1:10
  Welcome back. I'm Rustin and we get a lot to
• 1:13
  get to. I'm particularly pleased with
• 1:20
  President Trump's support of my strategic Bitcoin Reserve
• 1:24
  initiative, which will address our national debt while securing
• 1:29
  America's position as the global leader in financial innovation.
• 1:36
  As Bitcoin comes into more usage, its use makes the whole
• 1:41
  system more secure, more robust, and more capable of serving our
• 1:47
  needs all over the world. We should be the global leader
• 1:51
  with this fantastic new Ledger based asset that is in a digital
• 1:58
  format that is going to be transformative of everyday
• 2:02
  economy and puts the everyday American, in fact the everyday
• 2:06
  worker all over the world in control of their own money.
• 2:12
  What a wonderful blessing for hard working people all over the
• 2:16
  world to have this great new technology and to have America
• 2:21
  lead the way in implementing this wonderful, wonderful
• 2:25
  innovation. Well, it's going to be pretty
• 2:28
  hard to be the Bitcoin superpower of the world and do
• 2:31
  anything about that insurmountable debt when we
• 2:34
  don't hold or sell all of America's Bitcoin.
• 2:38
  On July 16th, independent journalist Lola Leets hit the
• 2:41
  mother lode. She FOI aid the US Marshals
• 2:44
  Service and uncovered the hard truth. the US government only
• 2:48
  holds 28,988 BTC. That's it.
• 2:52
  Not 210,000, not 190,000. Not even close.
• 2:57
  Apparently we're just as low IQ as those morons in Germany.
• 3:00
  Sorry Germans, it's your government that's stupid.
• 3:03
  US to Arkham estimated over 23 billion in BTC held by the
• 3:07
  government across agencies. While there's still a lot to be
• 3:10
  done on this, instead right now we've got $3.4 billion worth.
• 3:15
  That's it. This is a massive scandal and a
• 3:17
  possible cover up. A quiet liquidation of America's
• 3:20
  most valuable asset right as Bitcoin enters escape velocity.
• 3:25
  How dumb can you be? And Senator Lummus is furious
• 3:29
  quote. If true, this sets the US back
• 3:31
  years in the Bitcoin race. And we agree.
• 3:35
  Let me guess, they left the strategic Bitcoin Reserve on Pam
• 3:39
  Bondi's desk. Actually there was supposed to
• 3:42
  be an Epstein joke here, but as it got deleted, must have
• 3:49
  probably deleted itself, right? Probably never existed actually.
• 3:55
  Let's move on as a country and ignore that.
• 3:58
  What an absolute legend. Shane Gillis 2028 would be
• 4:01
  pretty awesome, but while America's strategic Bitcoin
• 4:04
  reserve vanished, that would be good news for this cretin.
• 4:07
  Elizabeth Warren is still out here screeching quote.
• 4:11
  Bitcoin could blow up the entire U.S. economy.
• 4:14
  Or GFY Liz, we're into that. Well, so.
• 4:17
  So why won't? Going everywhere.
• 4:20
  If it's. Ramping up in terms of its
• 4:23
  success. And let's say that that's
• 4:26
  exponential, because perhaps it might be.
• 4:28
  Why won't Bitcoin just suck the investment capital out of
• 4:32
  everything? It is and it will.
• 4:37
  That's why I'm here. Here is Liz Warren not happy.
• 4:40
  And guard rails to make sure that crypto isn't used to blow
• 4:44
  up our entire economy. So I'm very worried about that.
• 4:48
  But I want to add one more twist, and that is the clarity
• 4:52
  Bill has all those problems, but it also has a provision in it
• 4:58
  that would let any company listed on the New York Stock
• 5:02
  Exchange opt out of SEC regulation by just digitizing
• 5:08
  themselves, put themselves on the blockchain.
• 5:11
  And all of a sudden it turns out that Amazon or Meta or General
• 5:17
  Motors is no longer governed by the SEC.
• 5:22
  You do realize that literally would blow up the value of the
• 5:29
  New York Stock Exchange that that whole?
• 5:32
  Ladies and gentlemen, it may be time to harvest.
• 5:34
  She's mad because Congress just moved forward with some major
• 5:38
  bills, including a ban on CBDC's.
• 5:40
  Think about that. CBDC's were supposed to be their
• 5:44
  master plan, their surveillance coin, the programmable money,
• 5:47
  the ultimate control grid. But now Congress is slamming the
• 5:51
  brakes because Americans aren't buying their dystopia.
• 5:55
  But make no mistake, the state will have its proxies.
• 5:58
  Stable coins are private CBDC's. Next time you hear stable coin
• 6:03
  you should just hear this. Say it with me now.
• 6:05
  Central bank, digital currencies, slavery, money,
• 6:10
  they're the same thing. Go ahead, let them implement
• 6:13
  yield control and pump Bitcoin to $13 million.
• 6:16
  They're scared because Bitcoin is winning now.
• 6:19
  This is hilarious. Poor one held for the highly
• 6:22
  vanguarded vanguard. 1 of bitcoins loudest haters is being
• 6:26
  forced to hold Bitcoin anyway. Next, Vanguard's unintended
• 6:31
  exposure to Bitcoin. The firm has long held firm that
• 6:34
  Bitcoin has no inherent economic value, is an immature asset
• 6:38
  class, and is not appropriate for long term investors.
• 6:41
  Yet Vanguard is now the single biggest shareholder of strategy.
• 6:44
  As you can see here, Michael Saylor's software firm that's
• 6:47
  become a proxy for Bitcoin. Vanguard owns 20 million shares.
• 6:50
  And the reason? Index investing, Vanguard
• 6:53
  neutral funds, and ETFs that passively track indexes have no
• 6:56
  choice but to end up holding shares of strategy, even though
• 6:59
  the firm dislikes Bitcoin. Irony, clearly.
• 7:02
  And micro strategy is about to be added to the S&P 500, and
• 7:06
  that means every S&P index fund will have to hold it.
• 7:10
  A hot topic recently has been the idea of micro strategy or
• 7:14
  strategy eventually qualifying or being included in the S&P
• 7:18
  500. Do you think that you know that
• 7:22
  might happen? Do you think that it's important
• 7:24
  if that happens? Is it overhyped?
• 7:26
  How are you thinking about that? Yes, it might happen.
• 7:31
  The decisions above my pay grade, it'll be made by human
• 7:34
  beings, by a committee and they may or may not make it whenever
• 7:38
  they may or may not decide on the margin.
• 7:42
  I think the direction of travel is we will be incorporated into
• 7:46
  more and more indexes and I think eventually we will be
• 7:49
  incorporated in the S&P 500. I don't, I don't know when,
• 7:53
  right, to the extent that the S&P 500 stays relevant, right,
• 7:57
  The risk for them is if they don't incorporate the innovative
• 8:01
  tech companies, then they become irrelevant and they underperform
• 8:04
  versus QQQ or or some actively managed funds.
• 8:10
  So there's an incentive. But on the other hand, you know,
• 8:14
  organizations have a degree of of risk aversion and inertia to
• 8:19
  them. So some move faster than others.
• 8:21
  Even the ones who said Bitcoin is a bubble, a pet rock, right
• 8:25
  Jamie? Well, now they're stuck stacking
• 8:28
  indirectly through strategy. The irony, sailor.
• 8:32
  He's not backing down. He just said trillions are
• 8:35
  coming to Bitcoin. It's only a matter of time.
• 8:37
  If you have a digital currency that cannot be manipulated by or
• 8:42
  lose its value. So so Bitcoin doesn't really
• 8:45
  gain value, it's just everything else is losing value.
• 8:49
  So if you look at what the dollar is worth now, if you go
• 8:51
  back to 19, whatever, 72 pick your pick your point in time
• 8:55
  when we're on the gold standard and then you run it up, the
• 8:58
  dollar is worthless right now. So Bitcoin is just a reflection
• 9:02
  of Fiat currencies losing their value and that's going to
• 9:07
  continuously happen going forward.
• 9:10
  So that's why the top is not in and that's why this thing can go
• 9:15
  dramatically higher. And if you talk to Michael
• 9:18
  Saylor, Guy did that recently, it could go to what, 13 million?
• 9:22
  Yeah. I mean, you know, he thinks
• 9:23
  there's a chance the market cap of the gold is is $20 trillion,
• 9:27
  I think. And he doesn't see any reason
• 9:29
  why Bitcoin shouldn't be equal to his capacity.
• 9:31
  He talks about it for a while and it is.
• 9:33
  It's a play against you. A Fiat currency since 1930, the
• 9:37
  dollars are 95% of its value. I think bitcoins caught up to
• 9:41
  that. Very interesting stuff and I'm
• 9:43
  going to say. Even CNBC, and this is crazy
• 9:46
  online, there they said it. The dollar has lost 99% of its
• 9:50
  value. Bitcoin could hit 13 million a
• 9:52
  coin. These are mainstream media
• 9:54
  talking points. Now the complete destruction of
• 9:57
  the Fed's illusion of independence.
• 9:59
  And while normies are just waking up to all this, Max
• 10:01
  Kaiser is sounding the alarm. Kaiser says this is a monetary
• 10:05
  war and custody. Bitcoin is enemy property.
• 10:09
  If your coins are held by BlackRock, Coinbase, or an ETF,
• 10:13
  you don't own them. And if you think the state won't
• 10:16
  strike back, just ask gold holders in 1933.
• 10:20
  The truth is, institutions don't care about you.
• 10:23
  They'll crush your company with naked shorts.
• 10:25
  They'll sell the bottom. They'll hand over your Bitcoin
• 10:28
  the second they're told to. And This is why self custody
• 10:31
  isn't optional. It's mandatory.
• 10:34
  Cold storage equals freedom. If your Bitcoin isn't in your
• 10:38
  hands, it might as well be in Larry Thinks Man purse the US.
• 10:42
  That's just proved they'll sell the corn if no one's watching.
• 10:45
  So watch, take custody, get educated and fight back.
• 10:49
  Fight back by taking self custody and securing your
• 10:52
  Bitcoin with a cold card. Cue.
