We've Found Who's SUPPRESSING Bitcoins Price [It's Not Who You Think!] | EP 1296 · Simply Bitcoin

• 0:00
  Last week we brought you an investigation alleging that the
• 0:03
  US government only held 28,000 bitcoins, and this LED everyone
• 0:08
  to believe that the US had been dumping billions of dollars of
• 0:12
  Bitcoin and suppressing the price.
• 0:14
  But we have some new data proving they do in fact still
• 0:18
  hold all of their Bitcoin. And this comes at the same time
• 0:21
  we're seeing 10s of thousands of Bitcoin being dumped by whales
• 0:25
  and Ogs. So what's really happening?
• 0:28
  And of course, what does this, I mean for you, the question
• 0:31
  everyone's wondering right now, especially as the price is kind
• 0:34
  of retracing a little bit, there's a dip is the bull run
• 0:37
  cancelled? So let's get into this data and
• 0:40
  of course we are not alone. We have the legendary Bitcoin
• 0:43
  band with us today. So good to have you.
• 0:45
  I'm sure you guys saw last week it was a it was a great show
• 0:48
  that we had it was a fun one. All right guys.
• 0:50
  So first of all, let's start with the new findings.
• 0:54
  So remember last week the big news came out, there was a
• 0:58
  Freedom of Information Act released from the US Marshals
• 1:01
  and they basically said we're only holding 28,000 Bitcoin.
• 1:06
  And everyone on Twitter, all of us were wondering the big
• 1:09
  question, did the US government sell roughly around 170,000
• 1:15
  coins? And of course, is this what's
• 1:18
  explaining the fact that Bitcoin can't really break out of that
• 1:21
  120 hundred 15 range? Well, this week we got new data
• 1:26
  and this is coming out of Arkham Intelligence, of course, on
• 1:29
  chain metrics. And they tweeted the US
• 1:31
  government holds 24 billion Bitcoin.
• 1:34
  And I believe it was a total of like roughly around 198,000
• 1:38
  Bitcoin. And this is a culmination of all
• 1:41
  of the US different government offices wallet.
• 1:44
  So the US Marshall may only hold 20, 1000, but when you combine
• 1:48
  all of the wallets that the government holds, they do in
• 1:52
  fact hold all of the Bitcoin that they claim.
• 1:55
  Now, there was a lot of speculation here.
• 1:58
  There was a lot of speculation wondering whether they actually
• 2:02
  had sold that Bitcoin. Could this be the explanation
• 2:04
  for the price of Bitcoin? Of course, everyone's wondering,
• 2:07
  is someone out there suppressing the price of Bitcoin and where
• 2:10
  is it coming from? Was it paper Bitcoin?
• 2:12
  Is it the fact that the US government may have dumped their
• 2:15
  Bitcoin before the announcement of the US strategic Bitcoin
• 2:19
  reserve? Well, it looks like that is not
• 2:22
  the cause here. So, you know, a sigh of relief
• 2:25
  here, I guess from us Americans in regards to the strategic
• 2:27
  Bitcoin reserve. They haven't actually dumped all
• 2:30
  the Bitcoin. None of it has moved in four
• 2:32
  months. They still hold that Bitcoin.
• 2:34
  So that's the first topic and I'm I'm really going to pass it
• 2:37
  around here. Let's just let's touch on this
• 2:39
  first idea. The US actually holds all that
• 2:42
  Bitcoin and from our perspective it is a huge sigh of relief.
• 2:46
  Now that does kind of beg the question of OK, if the US
• 2:51
  government didn't dump 170,000 Bitcoin, then where is all this
• 2:55
  Bitcoin coming from? Especially with all the news
• 2:58
  we've been covering all of the Bitcoin treasury companies
• 3:01
  announcing huge amounts of capital being injected into
• 3:05
  market. At least we know it wasn't the
• 3:07
  US government dumping the coin. But I'm gonna pass the Nico cuz
• 3:11
  Nico loves this topic. So before I get into all the
• 3:14
  other data I have that I think it's gonna really pinpoint where
• 3:17
  the Bitcoin is being sold from. Nico, did you have a sigh of
• 3:21
  relief when we heard that the US government still holds all of
• 3:24
  their Bitcoin? No, not really, cuz like
• 3:27
  obviously you would want Bitcoin in the hands of individuals like
• 3:31
  it. It kind of explains, you know,
• 3:34
  again to also like something else to keep in mind, right?
• 3:38
  I don't know if they have access to all of that because
• 3:41
  essentially what Lola Elites uncovered was specifically for
• 3:46
  the US Marshall office, right? And it kind of confirmed
• 3:50
  something that we were talking about during the previous
• 3:53
  administration where they were essentially selling it before,
• 3:58
  you know, this current president came into office, right?
• 4:01
  And another thing that I actually posted this morning
• 4:03
  'cause I'm, I'm seeing this kind of like in the background is
• 4:07
  like if you're an OG from 16 years ago and you bought Bitcoin
• 4:12
  for less than a dollar, you know, and you have 10s of
• 4:15
  thousands of coins, which is going to lead us to the, you
• 4:17
  know, why, why is the price dumping?
• 4:22
  You know, if you're going to sell 5% of your stack, 10% of
• 4:26
  your stack, you're still going to have thousands of coins and
• 4:29
  you're going to be able to start businesses, upgrade your
• 4:32
  lifestyle, you know, whatever it is that you want to do.
• 4:35
  But also when I'm seeing this cycle is there's a lot of people
• 4:40
  are selling Bitcoin and they're taking some of that Bitcoin and
• 4:44
  they're investing into the treasury companies because they
• 4:48
  think that's a way to outperform Bitcoin.
• 4:51
  Now here's the thing though, you can only sell that once and
• 4:58
  they're outperforming Bitcoin until they don't, right?
• 5:02
  So, you know, Microstrategy's case and Metaplanet's case and
• 5:07
  now you're seeing, you know, so many treasury companies pop up
• 5:12
  it, it kind of reminds me of the 2017 era of kind of like the ICO
• 5:18
  boom. Now, are they as bad as Icos?
• 5:20
  No, 'cause they're not vaporware, right?
• 5:22
  They're actually backed by an asset.
• 5:24
  However, a lot of these treasury companies, they're going to have
• 5:28
  to take more and more. They're going to have to take
• 5:32
  bigger and bigger short, like they're going to have to
• 5:34
  leverage more and more in order to raise capital.
• 5:36
  And none of them are ever going to be able to catch
• 5:38
  MicroStrategy. Like MicroStrategy is the clear
• 5:41
  leader. The products that he's
• 5:43
  releasing, he's trying to tap into every single pool of
• 5:47
  capital that he can. And I had a conversation with
• 5:50
  Mark Moss the other day, and the way that he described it to me
• 5:53
  was like, Nico, you have to understand that 97% of capital
• 5:57
  is not able to get to buy Bitcoin if they wanted to.
• 6:02
  So Michael Saylor is like purposely creating all these
• 6:05
  products so that different pools of capital, whether it's people
• 6:09
  that are interested in stable income, whether it's people that
• 6:12
  are interested in just buying like a leverage Bitcoin play,
• 6:16
  which is MicroStrategy itself. The way that I see it, you know,
• 6:19
  he he has like, I think it's like 3 or 4 products that he's
• 6:22
  released so far. And this is what's happening
• 6:26
  this cycle, guys like O GS, people that have accumulated
• 6:31
  Bitcoin at a very, very, you know, low price.
• 6:35
  You know, I don't blame them, right?
• 6:38
  They're selling, you know, a portion of their stack to
• 6:41
  upgrade their lifestyle to, you know, to invest in their own
• 6:46
  companies, something we've done here at simply, but we're not O
• 6:50
  GS. And you know, some of them are,
• 6:55
  some are seeing the treasury companies as a way to multiply
• 6:58
  their Bitcoin. So they they sell, let's say one
• 7:01
  Bitcoin and they're thinking they're going to get two or
• 7:04
  three back, right, You know, and again, that's taking risk.
• 7:09
  You guys know how we feel at simply, which is, you know, take
• 7:12
  Bitcoin into self custody and put it in cold storage.
• 7:16
  That's the way you should do it. But you know, to each their own.
• 7:20
  Now the last thing I'll say too is I'm feeling bullish and the
• 7:24
  reason I'm feeling bullish is number one, we got Bitcoin Ben
• 7:27
  in the house today and Bitcoin Ben and I are going to be doing.
• 7:31
  The first ever simply Bitcoin. Rumble exclusive, which is going
• 7:37
  to be fantastic. It's going to come up the end of
• 7:40
  July. I'm so excited.
• 7:42
  Me and Ben are going to go off and that's the first thing that
• 7:46
  has me Bush. But the second thing that has me
• 7:48
  bullish is. If 70,000 Bitcoin were sold back
• 7:52
  in 2020 or 2017 the price would have dumped like 50% fifty or
• 7:58
  60% it would have crashed like you have no effing idea.
• 8:03
  So the fact that someone just spot dumped 70,000 coins and we
• 8:09
  dropped from 120, what do you want to correct me?
• 8:13
  Up to you. No, I was just saying you're
• 8:14
  getting ahead of yourself, but that's fine.
• 8:16
  That's fine. A. 100 and something 1000 coins
• 8:19
  and Bitcoin dropped from 124,000 or 122,000 and it dropped to
• 8:25
  115,000. So had like a five to seven K
• 8:28
  correction, like 5%. Like you should be feeling
• 8:34
  really bullish right now. And this is on top of the German
• 8:36
  government dumping and this is on top of parts of the US
• 8:40
  government dumping Bitcoin and Bitcoin is still consolidating
• 8:44
  keyword here, consolidating at $115,000 per coin, right?
• 8:50
  That is incredibly, incredibly bullish.
• 8:53
  Anyways, we have a friend of the show, Bitcoin Ben joining us
• 8:56
  today. Ben, what are your thoughts man?
• 8:59
  You know we really need to actually look at this right?
• 9:06
  Everyone watching this right now, if you have over .1 actual
• 9:14
  Bitcoin. You're a future whale.
• 9:17
  Accept it. Come to terms with your you are
• 9:24
  a future whale, right? Because in the future, if you,
• 9:29
  if you own one, you're you're a whale.
• 9:34
  And in the future, whatever show is on at that time, we'll go, Oh
• 9:41
  my God, did you hear? I heard that Nico is selling
• 9:45
  some of his Bitcoin. Did you hear he has 100 Bitcoin?
• 9:49
  My God, he's, he's so rich. We're all future, future whales
• 9:57
  in the larger picture. Plus we want this guys.
• 10:02
  We want the whales to sell. So us little little baby whales
• 10:10
  can accumulate more and actually become larger whales.
• 10:15
  This is an ecosystem we are evolving.
• 10:21
  You don't want those old whales just holding on to it because
• 10:29
  you have. To look at what we are doing all
• 10:33
  right, every time that our price drops, you, you should and I'm
• 10:42
  trying to be PC. All right, you should be
• 10:48
  sexually aroused every time the price drops because it is
• 10:57
  literally like you're going to Walmart and your favorite frozen
• 11:02
  pizzas on sale and you look at it and go Nope, I'm I'm not
• 11:08
  buying that till the price goes up.
• 11:10
  That makes no sense. The lower it goes, the bigger
• 11:16
  your smile should be. Because how everyone we talked
• 11:21
  to. Man, I wish I could have bought
• 11:23
  it in 90. Well you can't, but you can
• 11:30
  actually buy it at like 115 that's on sale.
• 11:35
  It ain't 90. And trust me, when I originally
• 11:39
  bought Bitcoin it was $600.00 each and.
• 11:47
  This whole way up, I've heard so many people go, God, I'm not
• 11:54
  going to buy it right now. It's at 20,000 and at 20,000 I
• 11:59
  was buying the top. I was Michael Saylor in this
• 12:02
  mother plucker, All right, Because I knew we're on our way.
• 12:08
  This is just the route we have to take because this is not.
• 12:14
  That's what makes us so special. We aren't shipping out a bunch
• 12:19
  of free money that we're printing and just saying use it
• 12:24
  here. Here's here's here is a bunch of
• 12:28
  paper. Now use it like it has value.
• 12:31
  No, no, we're involved in a system that actually has value
• 12:38
  and use case and and actually has an X in order to create one
• 12:48
  frigging Bitcoin. Right now it costs about 47 to
• 12:53
  $51,000. How much does it cost to print
• 12:58
  up 47 to $51,000 bills? It don't cost $47,000.
• 13:07
  I can tell you that right now. So the reason that we like it
• 13:13
  like this or you should like it like this is because we're for
• 13:20
  the first time in human history, we are in an asset that actually
• 13:27
  has a legitimate production price.
• 13:33
  And that production price is a floor once in a once in a while.
• 13:39
  Now, I think it will never dip under the production price again
• 13:46
  ever. We're done.
• 13:48
  That's all gone, but you look at it as a floor and then you look
• 13:55
  at every other retail out there. All right.
• 13:59
  When you own a shop, Walmart charges you 3 times their
• 14:06
  initial cost. That's normal.
• 14:09
  That is normal operating procedure, so if it actually
• 14:14
  cost $47,000 to produce every Bitcoin, you should assume the
• 14:21
  actual market value should be about 1:43-ish. 141 right around
• 14:29
  there. So you're, you're actually
• 14:32
  getting an asset that should be valued at 141, you're getting
• 14:37
  it. For 1:15.
• 14:41
  All right. You're actually getting about a
• 14:43
  26% discount. That's on sale, folks.
• 14:52
  And remember, we don't want this to jump up quickly because if it
• 14:58
  jumps up quickly, it falls quickly and you don't want those
• 15:05
  drops. Number one, if it shoots up to
• 15:09
  $200,000 tomorrow, it's never coming back down to 115 because
• 15:19
  if it shoots up and it hits 200,000, the correction will be
• 15:25
  at about 131 ish, 132, maybe 128, but that's it.
• 15:34
  You'd never see 115 again because then we have a higher
• 15:39
  high, which will set a higher low because you have to
• 15:43
  understand accumulation levels. That's where we're at right now.
• 15:49
  We're at an accumulation. People who are willing to sell
• 15:56
  right now, they see it as a decent price.
• 15:59
  People who are buying it right now, they see it as on sale.
• 16:04
  And that's where they're going to meet at, at at your by wall
• 16:08
  and at your cell wall. Well, you guys, I don't know if
• 16:12
  you know that. I don't know if you know this,
• 16:15
  but there's only 21 million of these mother pluckers that are
• 16:19
  ever going to exist. And with a having a schedule
• 16:24
  every four years, that yearly supply drops and drops and
• 16:29
  drops. And you don't think Michael
• 16:31
  Saylor is like a coke person in the 1980s?
• 16:39
  That guy's trying to snort so many Satoshi's right now.
• 16:46
  He's literally going to clean his house for years because he
• 16:52
  understands what I understand. Don't look at the price, look at
• 16:58
  the value. That's completely different.
• 17:04
  The price is irrelevant to the value because the value is you
• 17:11
  guys and me actually being future whales.
• 17:15
  If I actually told you in 10 years you will be worth $10
• 17:20
  million. If you're willing to wait for
• 17:23
  it, would you wait 10 years if you knew you were going to be?
• 17:29
  I guarantee you wouldn't jaywalk.
• 17:34
  If you knew in 10 years that you're going to be a
• 17:39
  multimillionaire, you'd quit smoking.
• 17:42
  You'd. Jog.
• 17:43
  You'd eat right? You'd be like, you know what?
• 17:45
  Hell with that, I'm really rich. That's how we need to look at
• 17:50
  this. We don't want to look at the
• 17:53
  dollar value. We want to look at how much
• 17:56
  Bitcoin we have because as we go up in price.
• 18:01
  Less and less people are going to want dollars.
• 18:04
  So you look at the value of the accumulation of the actual
• 18:10
  Bitcoin you're getting. Forget the dollars.
• 18:13
  That's why I love when I hear, oh, you know, people are taking
• 18:17
  profits. You're taking profits into what
• 18:22
  you're selling. Something that appreciates for
• 18:25
  something that hyperinflates. Yeah, good choice you dip shit.
• 18:33
  I mean, that is the equivalent of going to the bar with your
• 18:40
  hot wife and leaving with a fatty, OK?
• 18:43
  OK. OK, OK, OK.
• 18:48
  And Speaking of hot wives, Nico, how the hell did you do that?
• 18:57
  I know you guys have asked the same questions in your head
• 19:01
  because every time I see her, I'm like no, no, no.
• 19:04
  He he's either rich, which I know they got together when he
• 19:10
  wasn't rich, or he's swinging. All right, all right, let me,
• 19:18
  let me pick himself. Sorry guys all I'll.
• 19:21
  Say, too is like, you know, we love, we love everybody here at
• 19:25
  simply, you know, Oh man, we love all wives here at Simply.
• 19:29
  Hold on, hold on. Let's give him some.
• 19:31
  No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Let let me be honest, no one
• 19:34
  loves a fat wife. Oh, we.
• 19:41
  Love. Everybody.
• 19:43
  Bitcoin Bet is just he's just throwing some jokes around and
• 19:46
  it's hilarious. OK, All right, let's, let's
• 19:49
  let's pinpoint it. We promise you guys that we
• 19:51
  would pinpoint where the quote UN quote price suppression is
• 19:55
  coming from. And then we got we got a great
• 19:58
  RIP from Ben. All right.
• 19:59
  So from what we can see here guys.
• 20:02
  You know, everyone wants to make the case that it's a bunch of
• 20:05
  paper Bitcoin. It's the Larry Finks of the
• 20:07
  world. You know, the corporate
• 20:08
  treasuries, the ETF, they're suppressing the Bitcoin price.
• 20:12
  But from what we can see on chain, from all of the data
• 20:15
  coming out in the last week, it's just what we've been
• 20:19
  saying, it's a lot of people are dumping Bitcoin.
• 20:21
  We've been covering this and that's the beauty of Bitcoin.
• 20:24
  You know, it's a public Ledger. You can see where the movements
• 20:27
  are coming from. And we talked about this last
• 20:29
  week, there was 80,000 coins that hit, or rather Galaxy
• 20:34
  Digital seem to have moved 80,000 coins.
• 20:36
  And we were all wondering what are they doing?
• 20:38
  Well, they have sold about 70,000 of that Bitcoin and we're
• 20:42
  still kind of waiting to see if they're going to sell the last
• 20:44
  10,000 Bitcoin of that $80,000 tranche.
• 20:48
  And then going further, we're seeing even more old wallets
• 20:51
  wake up. We saw another whale from 2011
• 20:54
  sell 14,000 Bitcoin. Everyone's wondering what is
• 20:58
  going on. Of course, as we've been saying,
• 21:00
  if you're an OG and you're, you know, selling some coins right
• 21:02
  now, can you really complain? Can you really get mad at them?
• 21:06
  Of course they'll like Bitcoin, Ben said.
• 21:08
  You know, what are you selling it for?
• 21:09
  You're selling it for dollars. What's going on?
• 21:11
  And even further, we've seen some 15 year old coins around
• 21:15
  3962 Bitcoin move and it's just keeps going on guys.
• 21:20
  So if you're wondering where the coin is coming from, it's old
• 21:24
  wallets waking up. We saw another 2000 bitcoins
• 21:26
  from a 10 year old wallet move. We saw another 4462 Bitcoin held
• 21:32
  in Coinbase prime custody move to the Coinbase exchange.
• 21:36
  And the real, real question for me personally, and I think this
• 21:40
  is one of those ongoing debates that we've had in Bitcoin is
• 21:44
  this idea of how much lost Bitcoin quote UN quote lost
• 21:46
  Bitcoin is the really. And someone kind of posed that
• 21:50
  question. The theory that millions of
• 21:51
  coins are lost is probably going to be end up being pure BS.
• 21:55
  And Sonny goes, I've been saying it all along.
• 21:58
  As you can see, there is some OG holders that been holding
• 22:01
  Bitcoin for 10-15 years and all the, you know, million plus
• 22:07
  Bitcoin that we've kind of been wondering whether they're lost,
• 22:10
  whether people have, you know, no access to that coin.
• 22:13
  It's turning out that they're just been OG holders that are
• 22:16
  holding it forever. So the real question here, and I
• 22:19
  brought this chart up yesterday. We didn't really get a too much
• 22:22
  of a chance to really dive into it.
• 22:25
  But again, I brought this yesterday.
• 22:27
  It looks like the institutional investor out here or rather the
• 22:30
  retail through institutions are scooping up all this Bitcoin
• 22:35
  while, you know, smaller retail are selling their Bitcoin right
• 22:38
  now. Now, I don't know where Wales
• 22:40
  would kind of align in this chart here, but we are seeing
• 22:44
  old wallets, old coins start to move on chain.
• 22:47
  They're being sold into the market.
• 22:48
  And like Nico was saying, the fact that Bitcoin is holding up
• 22:52
  this strong around this time is absolutely credible.
• 22:55
  In the past, if we were selling, or rather if we were seeing 10s
• 22:59
  of thousands, literally, I think if you do the math, that's about
• 23:01
  110,000 coins being sold into the market right now.
• 23:05
  We would be getting the best discount possible here, and we'd
• 23:09
  probably be in a prolonged bear market.
• 23:12
  And right now, Bitcoin's still at all time high essentially,
• 23:15
  and it's very healthy. I think this is a very healthy
• 23:17
  dip here. I think this is, as someone in
• 23:20
  the chat said, like the bull runs not cancelled.
• 23:22
  I think it hasn't even started yet.
• 23:24
  Anyways, Nico, you kind of went in on this already, so I'm going
• 23:27
  to pass it over to Ben here real quick.
• 23:29
  We're seeing a lot of old coins move.
• 23:31
  I did get. Brit news from Twitter, though I
• 23:34
  didn't want to. What you got what you got?
• 23:36
  So Adam Back is claiming that Novogratz man and not using TWAP
• 23:43
  apparently. Personally, I woke up to this
• 23:45
  this morning. It's all Bitcoin down.
• 23:46
  Smash smash bot. Thanks for the cheap sats
• 23:49
  Novogratz. Yeah, so I I've heard.
• 23:51
  Him back is claiming that Novogratz was the person who
• 23:55
  sold Yeah. I mean, that's Galaxy Digital.
• 23:57
  Galaxy. Digital, yeah.
• 23:58
  And and T WAP, I forget what the acronym is.
• 24:00
  It's but essentially what he's saying is like Novo woke up and
• 24:04
  just market sold his Bitcoin instead of using some fancy
• 24:09
  engineering to sell little bit of Bitcoin to not move the
• 24:11
  price. He's just like smash sell again,
• 24:15
  cheap Bitcoin. This is good man.
• 24:17
  This is I, I love to see this, especially where we are right
• 24:20
  now. The the market is very healthy
• 24:22
  and strong in my opinion. Absolutely, Absolutely.
• 24:26
  All right, everybody, it's going to be an incredible show.
• 24:28
  We got Bitcoin Ben in the house today.

  Paper sucks. You want to literally stamp your

  Bitcoin for the long haul. I mean, here is the plate that
• 27:15
  they crushed, they put in water, they put a blowtorch to it.

• 28:04
  Anyways, talk about funny ass moments.
• 28:08
  Yesterday Trump went to the Federal Reserve and he had some
• 28:14
  interesting, you know, back and forth with Jerome Powell.
• 28:18
  This is like comedy. This is this is comedic gold.
• 28:22
  I felt like I was watching an episode of The Apprentice,
• 28:25
  except The Apprentice is the is the president.
• 28:28
  I guess the way he treated the like it was fantastic
• 28:32
  television. I have to show you guys the
• 28:33
  clip. The reason why I wanted to.
• 28:36
  See, it was the. Overruns of the expenses.
• 28:38
  Wanting to figure out why. So we're taking a look and it
• 28:44
  looks like it's about 3.1 billion.
• 28:46
  It went up a little bit or a lot, so the 2.7 is now 3.1.
• 28:52
  I'm not. Aware of that.
• 28:53
  Yeah, it just came out. Yeah.
• 28:55
  I know I haven't heard that from anybody at the Fed.
• 28:59
  Yeah, it just came. In our notice added about 3.1 as
• 29:05
  well. 3.1. 3.2 This came from us.
• 29:08
  Yes, I don't know who does. That you're including the Martin
• 29:14
  renovation, you just added entire capital.
• 29:17
  You just you just added in a third building is what that is.
• 29:19
  That's a third building. It's a building that's being
• 29:22
  built. I know it's been.
• 29:23
  It was built five years ago. We finished Martin five years
• 29:26
  ago. It's.
• 29:27
  Part of the overall work. So, so we're going to take a
• 29:32
  look, we're going to see what's happening and it's got a long
• 29:37
  way. Do you expect any more
• 29:38
  additional cost overruns? Don't expect them.
• 29:41
  We're we're ready for them. But we, we have a little bit of
• 29:44
  a reserve that we'll, we may use.
• 29:46
  But no, we don't expect to be finished in 2027.
• 29:50
  We're well along, as you can see.
• 29:53
  Nice to take these off every once in a while when we're not
• 29:56
  under too much danger. So any questions?
• 30:01
  Oh man, fucking hysterical. Oh man, that was comedic gold
• 30:08
  dude Holy cow. I can't I can't even that that
• 30:12
  by Trump was like that was pure gold.
• 30:15
  That was like that felt like it was like from ATV show.
• 30:19
  That did not feel like it was real.
• 30:21
  Again, like highlighting the ludicrous of it's a $3.2 billion
• 30:29
  renovation. Like what type of building it?
• 30:32
  Like, what are they building over there, man, $3.2 billion
• 30:37
  renovating the Federal Reserve. It's crazy.
• 30:39
  No, but here's the news. Here's the news the day after
• 30:43
  that press conference. Check this out.
• 30:45
  President Trump says he thinks Fed Chair Jerome Powell might be
• 30:49
  ready to lower rates. So this is the art of the deal.
• 30:52
  You know, he went in there kind of, you know, highlighted the
• 30:55
  ludicrous of all of it. And, you know, you could see
• 30:59
  Jerome Powell was super uncomfortable.
• 31:02
  And then Trump is just, he's a, he's just a showman.
• 31:05
  Like it was, it was hilarious. So I'm going to pass it on to
• 31:08
  Ben. Ben, keep in mind, we are on,
• 31:11
  on, we are on YouTube and we will, we want to be friendly to,
• 31:14
  to, we, we want to adhere to the community guidelines.
• 31:17
  What are your thoughts on Trump man, 'cause he went on.
• 31:23
  I absolutely love it because as an organization that is the most
• 31:30
  evil organization ever created, quote UN quote, for the American
• 31:36
  people. It isn't that they don't know
• 31:40
  what they're doing or they're stupid or anything like that.
• 31:44
  They have an agenda. Their agenda is Rob from the
• 31:50
  labor of the American people and transfer it into the government.
• 31:55
  That's what the Federal Reserve's job was to do.
• 32:00
  When they say, well, our job is to handle unemployment, let me
• 32:09
  say that a different way. Our job is to manage the slaves.
• 32:16
  Now, what's their second job? Price stability.
• 32:21
  That's just like saying, hey guys, we have something that's
• 32:28
  called the Patriot Act and it's basically going to take away all
• 32:33
  your freedoms. But it's got a good name.
• 32:38
  It's all junk. It's all trash.
• 32:42
  That's why Trump is actually going after the Federal Reserve,
• 32:47
  because he isn't. Trump knows this.
• 32:52
  He's a real estate guy. He he realizes that the Federal
• 32:57
  Reserve unnaturally sets the price of money, which is
• 33:03
  interest rates, and they produce the money.
• 33:10
  That's like a friggin pimp hiring one of his own hookers.
• 33:17
  That it, it's insider, insider trading and all of these Wall
• 33:26
  Street guys, everyone from Bloomberg, and they're all
• 33:30
  stupid. They're either stupid or they're
• 33:33
  in on it. Because let's think about it,
• 33:36
  right? We have an SEC.
• 33:38
  What's your job? Or make sure nobody's messing
• 33:41
  with the market. Make sure nobody's manipulating
• 33:45
  the markets or the exchanges or anything.
• 33:48
  Well, hey there, how about you look at the Federal Reserve, the
• 33:53
  ultimate manipulator of the unit of exchange that we all use.
• 33:59
  That's. About the biggest manipulator
• 34:01
  you can have. And in their charter it says
• 34:05
  they have to manipulate. So Wall Street and all of these
• 34:11
  wealthy billionaires and all of these banks, they literally rob
• 34:16
  us with a smile and then they go after the plebes.
• 34:21
  If they happen to launch a successful company that they
• 34:25
  don't like or actually compete with one of theirs, they send in
• 34:30
  the short sellers. You know what is what a short
• 34:34
  seller is it? It is a corporate assassin.
• 34:40
  That's what a short seller is. And they're all funded by the
• 34:44
  government because they're funded by the Fed and Bloomberg
• 34:49
  and all of these different major financial corporations work
• 34:53
  along along with the media, and they short sell any company that
• 34:59
  gets out of line. Why do you think Michael Saylor,
• 35:03
  why do you think that Bill Gates is short selling micro
• 35:08
  strategies? You think he's trying to
• 35:10
  accumulate a little bit more money?
• 35:13
  You think he gives a crap? No, it's an agendic.
• 35:17
  Move he political aggressive and Michael Saylor's A conservative.
• 35:25
  It's the agendic move to try and destroy the leaders of the next
• 35:31
  system because you're going through a transition of
• 35:35
  leadership. And all of the whales, my God, I
• 35:39
  hope they're all billionaires. Because if you think of the old
• 35:42
  whales, who are they? They're libertarian, freedom
• 35:47
  minded, wanting to run some software that tears down the
• 35:52
  world, IMF, the World Bank, the world monetary system that has
• 35:57
  robbed and raped our people. And I don't just mean Americans,
• 36:02
  people all across the globe who have robbed and raped us all
• 36:06
  with a smile on their face at the same time telling us that
• 36:10
  they're the ones bringing the stability, when really they just
• 36:14
  bring us war and death and frigging disease and everything
• 36:19
  else. This whole globalist system is
• 36:22
  an evil construct created to destroy the souls of all humans.
• 36:30
  Dropping bars, man. I completely agree.
• 36:32
  I mean, you're describing the cantillionary effect then.
• 36:35
  And essentially, like the way that you guys should look at it
• 36:38
  is basically every time the Federal Reserve prints money,
• 36:42
  it's a wealth redistribution mechanism from the lower middle
• 36:44
  classes that don't have the means to save in assets to the
• 36:47
  very, very wealthy. And then that makes the
• 36:52
  inequality bigger and bigger and bigger and bigger.
• 36:54
  And that empowers all these corporations that are in close
• 36:59
  proximity to the money printer. So, you know, the way that Ben
• 37:03
  is describing it, we've, we've talked about the evil of the
• 37:06
  Fed. We've talked about that the, the
• 37:08
  fact that the Fed is the number one cause of wealth inequality.
• 37:13
  We've talked about not only us, but even Naimbu Kelly has said
• 37:17
  this, like through inflation is how they control people.
• 37:21
  You know, it's, it's how it's, it's a, it's a system of
• 37:24
  control. This is why people can't get
• 37:26
  ahead. And this is what bitcoiners are.
• 37:29
  What this is what we're all trying to get the message out is
• 37:32
  that the money is fundamentally broken.
• 37:34
  If you opt out into Bitcoin, all of a sudden you're not within
• 37:37
  that system anymore. And all of a sudden all you got
• 37:40
  to do is just hold it and your life will get progressively
• 37:45
  better over time. You will get progressively
• 37:48
  wealthier. You will get progressively well,
• 37:51
  you know, you'll, you'll, you'll, you'll, it's, it's just
• 37:54
  a waiting game. It, it's not like it, it's not
• 37:57
  rocket science. Like figure out how to mine that
• 38:00
  Fiat, put it in Bitcoin, wait a couple cycles and you're gonna
• 38:05
  be in a much, much better place than where you were, you know,
• 38:10
  before you started, you know, moving on to the Bitcoin system.
• 38:14
  That is an act, that's a fact. And what what Ben was saying
• 38:18
  regarding the evils, regarding what they've done, this whole
• 38:22
  central banking system has done this to the world, right?
• 38:26
  And we are witnessing a, a pivotal shift.
• 38:30
  I would say we're entering into this, you know, new era in human
• 38:35
  history where essentially everything is decentralizing,
• 38:38
  whether it's media, whether you know, it is, you know, whatever
• 38:43
  it is like it is, it's a, it's a, it's a whole new world.
• 38:47
  Things are getting shaken up. And, yeah, and, you know, Trump
• 38:51
  was in the belly of the beast, but I think Trump was calling it
• 38:54
  out. Trump was calling the ludicrous,
• 38:56
  like, what type of building cost $3.2 billion to renovate?
• 39:01
  That is an absurd amount of money, right?
• 39:05
  Like, what are they doing with that?
• 39:06
  You know, and, and he's rightly so calling it out.
• 39:10
  And of course, he did it because, as we've been saying,
• 39:14
  we've had Caitlin Long on the show.
• 39:15
  We've had many people on the show to kind of confirm this.
• 39:20
  They are manipulating the the Fed isn't acting in a neutral
• 39:25
  fashion. They're acting politically
• 39:28
  against Trump, right? And so he's going in there and
• 39:31
  he's kind of, you know, art of art of the dealing it to try to
• 39:35
  get finally the Fed to lower rates, right.
• 39:38
  So yeah, it's it's it's an interesting situation, but this
• 39:43
  is what Bitcoin is for. This is what Bitcoin in self
• 39:45
  custodies for Opti. Real quick take before we move
• 39:49
  on to the news. Yeah, I mean, my first thought
• 39:51
  when I saw this video was like everyone else, like this has to
• 39:54
  be AI because this is just absolutely hilarious and and it
• 39:57
  is a show and it is theater and it is entertaining.
• 40:01
  But it was on the news like this, this actually happened.
• 40:06
  And it is very interesting to see what's going on between
• 40:09
  Trump and Powell, basically like the wrestling match or, you
• 40:12
  know, the fight, the tug of war we are seeing right now in
• 40:15
  regards to interest rates. And, you know, the funniest part
• 40:18
  to me was just kind of not only was Trump hilarious, but
• 40:21
  Powell's responses to what he was saying was even funnier.
• 40:24
  He's like looking at him giving weird side eyes and, you know,
• 40:27
  pulls his glasses to read it. We live in the best timeline is
• 40:30
  all I can say. This is getting just even more
• 40:33
  entertaining than we could even imagine.
• 40:35
  And I think it might only be entertaining for us because
• 40:37
  we're Bitcoiners and we can watch this all play out kind of
• 40:40
  from the sidelines and be like, what an absolute shit show this
• 40:44
  is. And you know, as Bitcoiners
• 40:46
  you're like, hey, just sounds like more money is being created
• 40:49
  and going to go into Bitcoin. So sounds good to me.
• 40:53
  Absolutely. All right, everybody.
• 40:54
  We're going to be right back. We're going to hit the news
• 40:56
  segment of the show and we're going to be talking about El
• 41:00
  Salvador versus the IMF. So it's going to be quite
• 41:04
  interesting. We'll be right back in just a
• 41:05
  second. I want to give a shout out to

  today with Kohl's card. All right everybody, we are back
• 43:37
  we're going to talk about El Salvador and the IMF.
• 43:41
  So Naibu Kelly, you know, I remember like the, IT was
• 43:46
  yesterday, the IMF basically part of the loan structure that
• 43:53
  they gave to El Salvador, one of the conditions that they had was
• 43:57
  that I the Bitcoin could no longer be legal tender in El
• 44:01
  Salvador. Now here's the thing though,
• 44:06
  it's still, you could still use it as a currency and you don't
• 44:09
  have to pay, you know, the quote UN quote capital gains.
• 44:12
  So it's still essentially functioning as tender, but the
• 44:17
  IMF was hell bent on it not being legal tender.
• 44:22
  Now I have a theory for this. My theory is what they so feared
• 44:29
  is that people would equate Bitcoin to Fiat.
• 44:34
  They would put it on the same level.
• 44:35
  And the reason that scares the living daylights out of them is
• 44:40
  because Bitcoin proves that money can exist without
• 44:44
  inflation. It proves that right.
• 44:48
  So if God forbid for them, if in El Salvador Bitcoin succeeds and
• 44:56
  it continues to just honey badger on and prove that it's
• 45:01
  not only money, but it's actually better money.
• 45:05
  It fundamentally calls into question Fiat itself because
• 45:10
  we've been sold by the quote UN quote economist that somehow,
• 45:17
  for whatever reason, money has to lose purchasing power in
• 45:21
  order to function. Bitcoin proves that that is not
• 45:24
  true. This is why they had to reverse
• 45:28
  it. This is why right now Bitcoin is
• 45:30
  seen as quote UN quote, A commodity, right?
• 45:32
  Bitcoin's a commodity. No, no, no, no, Bitcoin is
• 45:35
  money. You can use it as money.
• 45:38
  It functions as money. Yes, you can say that it has
• 45:41
  similarities to a commodity, but it's, it's money, it's
• 45:44
  peer-to-peer money, right? But again, if you're coming from
• 45:50
  the old system, right, a system of control and, and this is well
• 45:56
  documented, guys, this isn't just us, you know, talking
• 45:59
  whatever we want on, you know, on, on, on, on, on our, you
• 46:03
  know, on our channel. Like there's a, there's a whole
• 46:06
  book about this. There's, you know, confessions
• 46:08
  of the, of the economic of, of an economic hitman.
• 46:11
  And, you know, Alex Gladstein, he's just wonderful work kind of
• 46:14
  exposing, you know, how the IMF is basically using these loans
• 46:21
  to control a lot of these countries.
• 46:23
  And it was quite interesting because in 2021, after after
• 46:29
  Naimbu Kelly announced that Bitcoin was going to become
• 46:32
  legal tender, I was expecting so many countries to follow.
• 46:37
  And the next year, it's almost like it got stopped in a
• 46:40
  heartbeat. And I could never understand.
• 46:42
  I could never find out the reason as to why that was
• 46:45
  happening. The moment they went to El
• 46:49
  Salvador, they said, hey, we'll give you that loan as long as
• 46:53
  you don't buy Bitcoin. It clicked in my head in a
• 46:58
  millisecond. Like I was like, oh wow, I get
• 47:02
  it now. The reason as to why more
• 47:06
  countries haven't made Bitcoin legal tender is because 100, I
• 47:11
  think it's like 100 countries have dealings with the IMF and
• 47:15
  they specifically shot across the bow, told everybody that if
• 47:21
  you want our SP Rs, you can't make Bitcoin legal tender.
• 47:28
  The fact that the IMF is so concerned about a country that
• 47:33
  has the that has the GDP of $32 billion should tell you
• 47:37
  everything about whether we are over the target or not.
• 47:41
  Why are they so concerned? And we always get lectured
• 47:45
  about, we always get lectured about the importance of
• 47:47
  democracy. This is a democratically elected
• 47:52
  leader. This is a democratically elected
• 47:55
  House and a democratically elected Congress.
• 47:59
  And they democratically voted to make Bitcoin legal tender in
• 48:04
  their country. And this is an international
• 48:06
  organization that is dictating what a sovereign country can and
• 48:12
  cannot do with their money. That should tell you everything
• 48:16
  you need to know about who is actually controlling what.
• 48:22
  And don't take my word for it. Look, all this stuff.
• 48:25
  Look all this stuff up. What I just said, why is the IMF
• 48:30
  dictating what El Salvador is doing?
• 48:33
  Why they can say, oh, it's because they want to give him a
• 48:37
  loan. Well, initially when the IMF
• 48:42
  reacted and they used the legacy media to kind of, you know, back
• 48:46
  it up, when they made Bitcoin legal tender the first time,
• 48:50
  they said it was going to be a disaster for the country.
• 48:54
  They said it was gonna destroy the economy.
• 48:56
  They say it was gonna destabilize the country.
• 48:59
  Those are all the things that they said was gonna happen.
• 49:02
  You know what happened to the economy of El Salvador?
• 49:05
  It exploded. You know what happened to
• 49:09
  security in El Salvador? It went up.
• 49:12
  It is one of the safest countries in the Western
• 49:14
  Hemisphere. Naimbu Kelly right now is the
• 49:17
  most popular president in the Americas, like 90% approval
• 49:24
  rating. Do you think it's a coincidence
• 49:25
  that the first country that made Bitcoin legal tender has the
• 49:28
  most popular president? No, what you're witnessing is an
• 49:32
  alignment of incentives. That's what you're witnessing.
• 49:36
  And the old system, which Ben describes, is a system of
• 49:42
  control. It's a system of, you know, from
• 49:44
  a Christian perspective, right? It's a system of usury.
• 49:48
  That's what it is. It's user it, it's, it's based
• 49:51
  on theft, inflation, monetary debasement.
• 49:55
  You spend your time working, right all day long, you know, to
• 50:00
  make a salary, to make a living for your family.
• 50:03
  And every time the government prints money, that money that
• 50:06
  you earned loses purchasing power.
• 50:10
  How can you not describe that as theft?
• 50:14
  Now, Ben used some stronger words, but it it's the same
• 50:17
  thing. That's what it is.
• 50:19
  Because we did not agree to this.
• 50:22
  We we never agreed to this. We we agreed.
• 50:25
  And you mean that's a whole other discussion.
• 50:27
  But I'm going to say, well, there's a whole other
• 50:29
  discussion, but we agreed to the income tax, we agreed to
• 50:32
  property taxes. It's in law, right?
• 50:34
  It's in law. It's there, right?
• 50:36
  Whether you like it or not, we can have that discussion.
• 50:39
  Ben and I are probably gonna have that, that discussion on
• 50:42
  Rumble, right, 'cause that's another, that's a huge Rob.
• 50:44
  That's a huge rabbit hole. The, the, you know, again, the,
• 50:49
  the Federal Reserve has established 1913.
• 50:51
  The income tax was established 1913.
• 50:53
  That's not a coincidence. My friend and Ben and I are
• 50:56
  gonna talk about this on Rumble, but put that aside.
• 51:00
  It's still part of the social contract.
• 51:04
  It's still a law. No one has agreed about the
• 51:08
  money tax. No one.
• 51:10
  We have not agreed to it. In fact, if people knew the
• 51:13
  truth, I think they would get very, very upset, right?
• 51:18
  So This is why the IMF did what they did with El Salvador,
• 51:22
  because they could not allow Bitcoin to get a beachhead in a
• 51:25
  sovereign country to prove that is a superior currency to Fiat.
• 51:29
  That's what it was about. It was about control
• 51:31
  fundamentally. So El Salvador has been buying
• 51:36
  Bitcoin continuously since they did the deal with the IMF.
• 51:43
  The deal with the IMF had a stipulation that basically said,
• 51:47
  hey, you guys are not allowed to buy more Bitcoin.
• 51:52
  Naimbu Kelly said we are going to buy more Bitcoin regardless.
• 51:57
  The IMF came out yesterday. Oh, I didn't download this clip.
• 52:00
  Opti, let me let me do this real quick 'cause I don't think it's
• 52:04
  gonna play. But the IMF came out and they
• 52:09
  said yesterday on a Zoom meeting, which which we're gonna
• 52:14
  show to you guys right now, because right now no one really
• 52:17
  knows. Like people are basically
• 52:20
  speculating that, you know, the IMF, you know, that Naimbu Kelly
• 52:26
  is just moving wallets around. They're not stacking Bitcoin.
• 52:29
  Naimbu Kelly was very clear. Stacy Herbert was very clear,
• 52:33
  Max Kaiser are very clear about what they're doing right.
• 52:38
  And you know who's lying is my question.
• 52:42
  And if you look at the track record again, guys, like this
• 52:46
  isn't just a, a, a, my personal opinion.
• 52:49
  Read the book Confessions of the Economic Hitman.
• 52:53
  This is not an institution. Maybe it was created with a good
• 53:00
  intentions, right? But we all know the, the phrase
• 53:03
  the the road to hell is paved in good intentions, right?
• 53:06
  Maybe it was created with good intentions, but what it's
• 53:09
  actually doing is not very good. So here's a clip from this kind
• 53:14
  of Zoom meeting where someone asked basically like is, is El
• 53:17
  Salvador stacking and what not? And then we'll kind of open up
• 53:20
  the discussion. Let's check it out.
• 53:23
  Regarding the questions on Bitcoin, I don't have much new
• 53:29
  to say other than as we have stated in the past, the total
• 53:35
  amount of Bitcoin held across government owned wallets remains
• 53:40
  unchanged and that is consistent with El Salvador's program
• 53:44
  commitments. The accumulation of Bitcoin by
• 53:48
  the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Fund is consistent with program
• 53:52
  conditionality and the increases in the Bitcoin Reserve Fund
• 53:56
  relate to movements across various government owned
• 54:00
  wallets. So I don't know.
• 54:04
  I don't know who, because the IMF is saying one thing, I'm
• 54:07
  Bukele is saying another thing. The reserve is going up.
• 54:12
  They want to let you know that they are still in control.
• 54:17
  Naimbu Kelly said it very clear that they have every intention
• 54:19
  to continue to buy Bitcoin. And yeah, I mean, I don't know.
• 54:26
  What do you what do you think, Ben?
• 54:28
  And just keep in mind we are on YouTube and we want to adhere to
• 54:31
  the community guidelines. Well, that would be easy if
• 54:36
  they'd actually give us guidelines.
• 54:39
  But they don't. Just like the IMF, just like the
• 54:43
  SEC, we're going to let you do what you want to do until you do
• 54:48
  something we don't like, and then we're going to arrest.
• 54:51
  You see, the IMF was not created with good intentions.
• 54:58
  That's a myth. The IMF was created to
• 55:03
  reorganize the globe under and using the leverage of the US
• 55:11
  dollar that they were actually taking control of through the
• 55:19
  Federal Reserve System in America.
• 55:24
  And this is all lies. Plus, if you look at how she
• 55:28
  phrased it, oh, it's an accumulation of wallets from
• 55:31
  across the government. Yeah.
• 55:34
  Because it's legal tender. Because at the airport, you can
• 55:38
  pay your fees to enter with Bitcoin.
• 55:43
  You can pay your taxes in Bitcoin.
• 55:46
  Yeah, they're accumulating Bitcoin.
• 55:49
  See, her problem is, is she's a liar.
• 55:53
  And everyone on that call, if they're associated with her,
• 55:57
  probably a liar. Why do we keep listening to
• 56:01
  liars and then assuming they're telling the truth?
• 56:04
  When a cheater cheats and then says oh I'll never cheat on you
• 56:08
  again, guess what they're doing? They're cheating on you again.
• 56:12
  Well, surprise, surpr fucking pride.
• 56:14
  Excuse my language. This Why do we keep giving
• 56:19
  credibility to people who are. Not credible.
• 56:25
  Look at Boo Kelly. I will clean up the streets.
• 56:29
  What did he do? He cleaned up the streets.
• 56:32
  I will legalize Bitcoin. What he do?
• 56:34
  He legalize Bitcoin? I will improve the lives of my
• 56:38
  countrymen. What has he done?
• 56:40
  Improve the lives of his countrymen?
• 56:42
  When a liar lies, trust, they're lying.
• 56:45
  When someone who who has consecutively told you the truth
• 56:49
  tells you something, assume it's the truth because your judgment
• 56:53
  is actually based on the past experiences with the personal
• 56:58
  entity. The Federal Reserve was created
• 57:04
  to transfer wealth out of the free economy into the
• 57:10
  government. That's it.
• 57:14
  Through inflation and through the ability of the federal
• 57:19
  government to sell Treasuries to the Federal Reserve to create
• 57:25
  currency, they leveraged our labor, our future labor, for the
• 57:32
  realization of the monetary power into the federal
• 57:37
  government at the time. Without the Federal Reserve,
• 57:41
  World War One would have never happened.
• 57:43
  Without the Federal Reserve, World War Two would have never
• 57:46
  happened. So what have we gotten from the
• 57:49
  Federal Reserve? We've all freaking gotten poorer
• 57:53
  and millions of us have gotten killed.
• 57:58
  I'm not seeing the positive here.
• 58:00
  A. 100%, I 100% agree with you, Ben.
• 58:03
  And we've talked about this many, many times.
• 58:05
  You know when look back in the Middle Ages, the wars would end
• 58:11
  when the king would run out of gold, right?
• 58:13
  They would literally the soldiers would literally pack
• 58:15
  up. And go home, right?
• 58:17
  Like that's literally what would happen.
• 58:19
  Like, don't take my word for it again, do your own research, but
• 58:22
  you can verify this, right? Fiat enables endless wars and it
• 58:27
  in fact, it makes it, it's, it's evil.
• 58:30
  And I got Ben's 100% on the dot here.
• 58:33
  Like it, it allows it makes it profitable.
• 58:38
  It it incentivizes it, right? If you're on a sound money
• 58:41
  standard, war becomes expensive and you're actually incentivized
• 58:48
  to, you know what to transact, right?
• 58:51
  You're incentivized to actually for, for a free market to do
• 58:55
  what free markets do best, which is the best way to organize a
• 58:58
  society without, without cohesion, so without coercive
• 59:05
  measures. And that's the that's the signal
• 59:08
  there, right? You know, Ben hit the nail on
• 59:11
  the head is that Fiat fuels endless wars.
• 59:14
  And I'm going to refer to Ron Paul's quote.
• 59:18
  It's not a coincidence that the century of central banking
• 59:21
  happens to be the bloodiest century in human history, right?
• 59:25
  Like it, That's not a coincidence, guys.
• 59:27
  And when, you know, Ben went off earlier on about the evils of
• 59:31
  the Fed, like I'm telling you, like it it, it's not OK.
• 59:38
  It's not OK what they do. And the IMF, I would say is an
• 59:42
  extension of that. It's an extension of this this
• 59:44
  institutional system controlling people through money.
• 59:48
  And that's why, you know, and to kind of wrap it like loop it in,
• 59:54
  Jeff Booth makes this case that that the natural state of the
• 59:59
  free market is deflationary, right?
• 1:00:03
  And the only way that you're feeling the natural state of the
• 1:00:07
  free market is by adopting Bitcoin.
• 1:00:11
  Because when you adopt Bitcoin, every single thing, what Ben was
• 1:00:15
  saying in the beginning of the show about you getting rich,
• 1:00:17
  every single thing around you will get cheaper over time.
• 1:00:22
  So that car that you want, that real estate that you want, the
• 1:00:26
  food, the groceries, if you're saving in Bitcoin, everything is
• 1:00:31
  getting cheaper, getting progressively cheaper.
• 1:00:34
  So that house that you wanted cost you 100 Bitcoin four years
• 1:00:37
  ago today, maybe cost you 4. Was it a good idea to buy the
• 1:00:42
  house? Or was it maybe a good idea to
• 1:00:44
  rent the house? You know, here we go again,
• 1:00:47
  right? So actually.
• 1:00:50
  Actually, that's really something we should actually
• 1:00:53
  talk about is how how as we move forward, this new currency, the
• 1:00:59
  friggin Bitcoin that we all love, it is actually an
• 1:01:05
  efficiency and quality generator because you have to actually
• 1:01:10
  build a higher quality product to actually convince the people
• 1:01:17
  who own the Bitcoin to buy it with Bitcoin.
• 1:01:21
  Because if you offer a crap product, they're not going to
• 1:01:26
  lose, They're not going to send you their Bitcoin for something
• 1:01:29
  that that isn't quality. So this not only a amazing
• 1:01:35
  monetary unit, is also a cultural improvement unit.
• 1:01:44
  Yeah. Yeah, and you see.
• 1:01:46
  This with the quality of products decreasing.
• 1:01:48
  You used to be able to buy a fridge, you know, Like you see
• 1:01:52
  these videos, someone buys a fridge for the 1950s and that
• 1:01:56
  thing is still running and it's made out of steel, you know, and
• 1:02:01
  you buy a fridge today and that thing break.
• 1:02:03
  It might be a quote, UN quote smart fridge with all the tech,
• 1:02:06
  technology and all that stuff. But you know, that thing breaks,
• 1:02:10
  it breaks. You know, within two years you
• 1:02:12
  have to, you know, you have to buy another fridge that that's
• 1:02:15
  something called, it's a phenomenon called shrink
• 1:02:16
  flation. So what's essentially happening
• 1:02:19
  is that companies are forced to try to keep the prices steady,
• 1:02:25
  but because the money's losing purchasing power, they have to
• 1:02:27
  cut the quality of the products in order to maintain that stable
• 1:02:31
  prices. Now, here's the kind of evil
• 1:02:33
  doom loop, right? Because people that are not
• 1:02:35
  educated on inflation and on how the Federal Reserve works, the
• 1:02:39
  corporations get get blamed for quote UN quote, price gouging.
• 1:02:44
  They're not price gouging anything.
• 1:02:46
  That's not how a free market works.
• 1:02:47
  If you price gouge, what you're doing is you're allowing your
• 1:02:51
  competitor to make to just, OK, you're gonna charge too much,
• 1:02:56
  I'm gonna charge less. I'm gonna get your customers.
• 1:02:58
  That's not how the free market works, right?
• 1:03:01
  You can't. And then this is the crazy part.
• 1:03:03
  And then I think this is an educational component, is that
• 1:03:06
  the free market determines what the price of goods are.
• 1:03:10
  It's not a central bank, it's not the state, it's not the
• 1:03:14
  government. It's the free market that
• 1:03:16
  determines the prices of goods. And this is what people.
• 1:03:20
  Have to wrap their heads. Around and another thing that
• 1:03:22
  I'll say is the reason as to why Bitcoin shows you that the
• 1:03:29
  natural state of the free market is deflationary is, is because
• 1:03:33
  it's the only currency in the world that is sufficiently
• 1:03:38
  decentralized and secure. So therefore it cannot be
• 1:03:43
  manipulated, right? And that is why everything gets
• 1:03:47
  cheaper compared to Bitcoin is the only currency that cannot be
• 1:03:53
  manipulated. And you want to know why to
• 1:03:56
  weave it, loop it back in, And then we're going to talk about
• 1:03:59
  Bitcoin Ben's clubs that are a worldwide phenomenon and his
• 1:04:03
  resorts in El Salvador and everything he's working on.
• 1:04:05
  But to kind of weave it back in, you want to know why the IMF
• 1:04:11
  does not want Bitcoin as legal tender?
• 1:04:14
  It's exactly for the reason I just told you.
• 1:04:16
  They. Cannot control it.
• 1:04:19
  That's what it fundamentally comes down to.
• 1:04:21

• 1:06:37
  the man himself band in the house.
• 1:06:41
  Let's talk about Bitcoin band dot IO guys.
• 1:06:45
  You know I had a really good meeting with a friend of mine
• 1:06:50
  yesterday. He's pretty well known in the
• 1:06:52
  space and there's something that he said that kind of really
• 1:06:57
  resonated with me. And you know, he, he, he doesn't
• 1:07:01
  live in, in South Florida like I do.
• 1:07:03
  So he's here every once in a while.
• 1:07:05
  And he said something to me. He's like Nico, like, you know,
• 1:07:08
  we meet every once in a while when I'm here.
• 1:07:10
  But it wouldn't be the same if we did it over Zoom.
• 1:07:15
  It wouldn't be the same if we did it over Google Meet.
• 1:07:17
  There's something about the in person experience that cannot be
• 1:07:25
  replaced by Google Meets by Zoom, right?
• 1:07:29
  When Ben and I see each other in person, I think we're like, we
• 1:07:32
  give each other. We're like, yeah, what's?
• 1:07:34
  Up. Man, And we just give each other
• 1:07:36
  hugs and we're just talking. And you feel the energy, right?
• 1:07:40
  It's part of the reason that I wanted Opte to move down here to
• 1:07:43
  South Florida is because, again, there's something about
• 1:07:47
  meatspace, right, that the digital doesn't really equate
• 1:07:52
  to. And as a Bitcoiner, you kind of
• 1:07:55
  feel lonely in a way, because most of the world does not see
• 1:08:00
  the world the way that you do through the orange lens, through
• 1:08:03
  the lens of optimism, peace, hope, prosperity.
• 1:08:06
  Ben was dropping the sauce in the beginning of the show.
• 1:08:09
  He's like, look, you're going to be rich, man.
• 1:08:11
  Just wait, Just wait it out. You're going to, you're, you're
• 1:08:14
  sitting and something in 10 years, you're going to be like,
• 1:08:17
  dude, you remember when Bitcoin is 116,000, like, holy cow,
• 1:08:21
  right? I, I remember when I got into
• 1:08:23
  Bitcoin, it was 2016. It was like under 1000 bucks and
• 1:08:26
  I was like Oh my God, like I am so effing late.
• 1:08:28
  I am late. I, I, I missed the boat.
• 1:08:31
  I have friends that were buying this at $100.
• 1:08:33
  I have friends that were buying at $50.00.
• 1:08:36
  I missed the boat. I just, I, I still bought as
• 1:08:39
  much as I could, but I still felt like I was late.
• 1:08:41
  Now, if you tell me Nico $600.00 Bitcoin, dude, Oh my God.
• 1:08:47
  I would have been like holy cow. Like it was right.
• 1:08:49
  It was so obvious it was that the opportunity was right there.
• 1:08:52
  And you guys just have to do the math in your head.
• 1:08:54
  It's super, super simple. There's 21 million and there's
• 1:08:58
  an infinite amount of Fiat. The math, it's Infinity divided
• 1:09:01
  by 21 million. So where else are you going to
• 1:09:02
  find like minded individuals that think like you that you can
• 1:09:07
  actually hang out with in real life in person?
• 1:09:12
  There's poker, there's educational stuff you want to
• 1:09:15
  learn about mining, you want to learn about Bitcoin, but in
• 1:09:17
  person is is what Bitcoin Ben clubs are all about, right, So
• 1:09:22
  go to Bitcoin Ben dot IO and I want to talk about the different
• 1:09:24
  locations Opti. So if you could pull that up.
• 1:09:27
  I've only had, I've only been able to visit the one in
• 1:09:31
  Sarasota, but now I'm going to, it looks like I'm going to be
• 1:09:33
  doing a worldwide tour, Ben. But you got the Sarasota club,
• 1:09:38
  you got Nashville, you got Boston.
• 1:09:40
  Could you go down Opti a little bit?
• 1:09:41
  You got Dallas, you got Las Vegas and you got Saint Louis.
• 1:09:45
  And you were just telling me before we went on air that
• 1:09:49
  you're on the verge of launching a new club in Scottsdale, AZ.
• 1:09:55
  So, Ben, did I do it justice? Did I, did I get, did I do
• 1:10:00
  describing the magic of your clubs?
• 1:10:03
  Justice, man. The importance of meeting in
• 1:10:06
  person with other Bitcoiners to talk about Bitcoin, to talk
• 1:10:10
  about, you know, what they're thinking, their worldview, you
• 1:10:13
  know, perhaps to play a little bit of poker, to hang out, you
• 1:10:17
  know, to get educated, you know, talk about mining.
• 1:10:19
  Ben, the floor is yours. Yeah, actually, let me explain
• 1:10:26
  why I launched our clubs. And if I get emotional, you'll
• 1:10:33
  have to forgive me because we're losing our freedoms on a daily
• 1:10:42
  basis, especially the last four or six years and actually over
• 1:10:51
  the last 100 years and then some.
• 1:10:55
  And what I wanted was I wanted to change America.
• 1:11:00
  Well, how do you? Change America you actually get
• 1:11:04
  everyday Joe's ex truck drivers and average average common sense
• 1:11:12
  Americans and freedom loving people all over the world
• 1:11:18
  together and and you make them wealthy.
• 1:11:21
  You actually give them the most valuable or help them actually
• 1:11:26
  get involved in the most valuable shift of wealth ever.
• 1:11:34
  And this is such an amazing opportunity where the first time
• 1:11:38
  in history the little guys in front run the big guys because
• 1:11:45
  the big guys, they exist in the old system.
• 1:11:49
  And what these clubs are for is for the average people in the
• 1:11:55
  area to learn about this. Because guys, you and I, we're
• 1:12:02
  doing great. We're already in Bitcoin, and I
• 1:12:07
  realized, well, what about everyone else?
• 1:12:11
  Because everyone's hyped up about wealthy people buying
• 1:12:14
  Bitcoin. Hey, Michael Saylor, I love you,
• 1:12:18
  but fuck you. You already rich.
• 1:12:21
  I love you to death, and I love what you're doing.
• 1:12:24
  But brother, I don't give a flying fuck if you get richer,
• 1:12:27
  all right? What I'm worried about is, is
• 1:12:32
  actually the single mom who has three freaking jobs because
• 1:12:39
  she's because she has three kids and she's barely getting by.
• 1:12:47
  Who's who's helping her? Who's looking out for her?
• 1:12:53
  It's shrink the government and it shouldn't be.
• 1:12:56
  It should be us, people who are looking around going who needs
• 1:13:00
  help. This is what we're here for.
• 1:13:05
  And I am a proud follower of Jesus Christ and I am flawed as
• 1:13:09
  fuck. But I'll tell you one thing.
• 1:13:12
  If Jesus was here, he would tell you, help your neighbors, help
• 1:13:20
  you friends, help help someone you don't know.
• 1:13:25
  Because just like Michael Saylor, you can't take Bitcoin
• 1:13:30
  with you. But what you can is you can
• 1:13:32
  leave changed lives. You can help someone next to you
• 1:13:39
  that will remember that help for the rest of their lives.
• 1:13:44
  And like I said, I get emotional about this because I love
• 1:13:48
  people. I love everybody.
• 1:13:50
  I love every human out there. I don't care what race,
• 1:13:54
  religion. Anything.
• 1:13:55
  I don't care. You are human, you have a soul.
• 1:13:59
  God granted you the gift of life.
• 1:14:03
  And we share that life together and we have a group of evil
• 1:14:07
  people who have come together to try and hurt us.
• 1:14:13
  Well, I say we all freaking gather up together and we tell
• 1:14:17
  them to kiss our ass. That's what we tell them.
• 1:14:21
  And so I don't look at these clubs as just, hey, let's all
• 1:14:25
  hang out and talk about Bitcoin. These are knowledge armories.
• 1:14:31
  We're at war, folks, and we need locations all over the world
• 1:14:37
  where people can actually come in.
• 1:14:41
  And I also look at them as as hospitals at because a lot of
• 1:14:47
  broken people walk through our doors and go look, this
• 1:14:51
  inflation's killing me. I heard Bitcoin can help.
• 1:14:55
  We're a triage. We are a financial triage.
• 1:15:00
  Club and very few millionaires walk through my doors, but a
• 1:15:07
  whole lot of a whole lot of 100 nares do and that's who I'm
• 1:15:13
  worried about and that's why I did.
• 1:15:17
  I hope what guys, I'll be honest with you, I'm doing great.
• 1:15:22
  I I could literally retire right now and live on a friggin boat
• 1:15:28
  and have a great life. Right, But what life would it
• 1:15:33
  be? Because hey, while I'm happy out
• 1:15:36
  on this friggin boat, what about the people on the shores, right?
• 1:15:40
  We're already in the lifeboat. Why?
• 1:15:43
  Why don't we row our happy asses right back to the Titanic and
• 1:15:48
  grab some more people and put them on the boat?
• 1:15:51
  Because it's sinking and all of the rich people are getting off
• 1:15:56
  the Titanic because they found out early.
• 1:16:00
  All, all of us on the lower level, we ain't heard shit.
• 1:16:05
  We heard a bump and now there's a little bit of water coming in.
• 1:16:10
  Well, all of the rich people were told earlier, hey guys,
• 1:16:13
  we're going to need to get you guys in here.
• 1:16:15
  We're going to need to get you in the lifeboat.
• 1:16:18
  While all of the broke people who are just looking for a bed
• 1:16:22
  your life, they're all drowning. And what is rushing into the
• 1:16:29
  Titanic is the inflation of the water.
• 1:16:34
  And that's what we're doing. We are killing the people with
• 1:16:38
  inflation. And we have, for some reason, we
• 1:16:42
  still have people who give a flying shit what the Federal
• 1:16:46
  Reserve says. Are we?
• 1:16:49
  We care what the IMF says. I absolutely love the president
• 1:16:55
  of El Salvador. It's why I launched my bank
• 1:16:57
  there, because he don't give a shit about the IMF.
• 1:17:04
  He's worried about his people. I guarantee he's cried.
• 1:17:09
  He's cried for his people because.
• 1:17:11
  No one would take that job unless they were willing to die
• 1:17:15
  for their people. Yeah, Amen to that.
• 1:17:18
  Absolutely, extremely, extremely powerful.
• 1:17:22
  And you know, Ben, you, you were talking about the, the Christian
• 1:17:27
  component to it, right? And it kind of plays into this
• 1:17:32
  and I, I forget it was. I was talking to I was talking
• 1:17:37
  to a couple friends of mine and. I was talking about the the kind
• 1:17:41
  of spiritual warfare that is happening right now.
• 1:17:46
  And it is happening right. And you have essentially a
• 1:17:50
  system of usury and then you have a system of hope.
• 1:17:55
  You have a system of sound money.
• 1:17:57
  And you know, again, inflation affects the lower and middle
• 1:18:05
  classes the most, right? And this is what people have to
• 1:18:07
  understand, right? You know, most people don't have
• 1:18:12
  the privilege to be able to save, right?
• 1:18:16
  Most people don't have the privilege to be able to park a
• 1:18:19
  portion of their net worth and assets.
• 1:18:22
  I don't know what the exact figure is, but it's like 30 or
• 1:18:25
  40%. Of the country is paycheck to
• 1:18:27
  paycheck, right? And those are the people that
• 1:18:31
  get absolutely effing wrecked when the government prints money
• 1:18:37
  the way they do, right? And that's something to keep in
• 1:18:41
  mind. And at these clubs, at Bitcoin
• 1:18:45
  Ben's clubs that are all over the states, you're going to be
• 1:18:48
  able to arm yourself with the knowledge to give you hope,
• 1:18:53
  right? You're gonna be able to see that
• 1:18:57
  you do have the, you do have a future.
• 1:18:59
  You do have an ability to live a prosperous life.
• 1:19:06
  And you know what? You're not gonna, you're not
• 1:19:09
  gonna get it through. It's part of it.
• 1:19:13
  I'm not saying it's not important.
• 1:19:15
  It's definitely important. But I would say the most
• 1:19:18
  powerful vote you can make is to vote with your wallet.
• 1:19:25
  That is the most powerful vote you can make.
• 1:19:27
  I would say at this point. And at Ben's clubs, you're going
• 1:19:32
  to find like minded individuals that are going to be able to
• 1:19:35
  educate you, support you and give you hope, give you your
• 1:19:40
  hope back, give you your dignity back.
• 1:19:43
  I would say. So go check out Bitcoin Ben dot
• 1:19:47
  IO and you guys are gonna want it Stay tuned for the Ben and I
• 1:19:52
  show when we do the rumble exclusive, we're gonna be able

  to. Give him a sneak peek, yeah.
• 1:19:56
  We're gonna be, we're gonna be able to bring up all the topics
• 1:19:59
  that we talked about today. We're gonna be able to talk
• 1:20:01
  about them and, you know, in a more open fashion in a, in a way
• 1:20:07
  that's outside of the Overton window.
• 1:20:10
  And we're gonna be doing that exclusively on Rumble and.
• 1:20:16
  Yeah, it's going to be a fantastic conversation, you
• 1:20:18
  know? Yeah, let me say one more thing.
• 1:20:26
  One of the reasons I want everyone watching if you, if you
• 1:20:31
  live near one of my clubs or if you don't, especially if you do,
• 1:20:40
  please join the clubs. Guys, I'm not in it for the
• 1:20:44
  money. That's just operational costs.
• 1:20:48
  I'm in it because I want more people who are watching this.
• 1:20:52
  I want you in the club, physically in the club, because
• 1:20:57
  a lot of you have knowledge that I don't even have.
• 1:21:01
  And I'll tell you what, some of the best evenings I've ever had
• 1:21:06
  was sitting in, in my clubs actually talking about freedom
• 1:21:12
  and, and, and love and charity. And everyone who enters our
• 1:21:20
  club, when they join, all of a sudden they're like, Oh my God,
• 1:21:26
  there's, there's a place I can openly talk about love and
• 1:21:31
  freedom. And it's it's these clubs.
• 1:21:36
  And I just recently actually sent my CEOJ over to Australia.
• 1:21:42

• 1:21:46
  in the UK. I'm lost.
• 1:21:48
  I'm watching clubs in Mexico, I'm Costa Rica.
• 1:21:53
  I'm launching clubs everywhere. Because like I said, these are
• 1:21:58
  armories. These are knowledge armories
• 1:22:01
  where average J, average Joes and average Jane's can come and
• 1:22:11
  get some ammunition for the war. Because this is a war, guys.
• 1:22:16
  Metaphorical ammunition for the spiritual war that we're going
• 1:22:20
  through right now, and you got to arm yourself with knowledge.
