Transcript
- 0:07Speaker 1: Big news in the avalanche ecosystem. Some things are moving
- 0:10Speaker 1: and Warren Buffett might be involved. My name is Paul Barrew.
- 0:13Speaker 1: Welcome back into tech path. Let's dive in. I do
- 0:15Speaker 1: want to thank our sponsor, and that is Coinbase. Jump
- 0:17Speaker 1: over to coinbase dot com. You guys can earn fifty
- 0:20Speaker 1: dollars when you buy fifty dollars in crypto, so it's
- 0:22Speaker 1: a great place for you to get started. And of
- 0:24Speaker 1: course use our link down below. That's where you're going
- 0:27Speaker 1: to be able to get the special offer. All right,
- 0:29Speaker 1: So let's first start up with this. Remember, Ripple has
- 0:32Speaker 1: had a kind of a long alliance with SBI, which
- 0:37Speaker 1: is a company in Japan that has kind of created
- 0:40Speaker 1: this consortium. If you look at the list of banks
- 0:42Speaker 1: within it, one that I want to focus on today
- 0:46Speaker 1: is this one right there, Sumi Tomo Mitsui Trust Bank,
- 0:50Speaker 1: and I want to jump over to this first article. Now,
- 0:52Speaker 1: this is their CEO. This guy passed away last year
- 0:56Speaker 1: sixty five, and then we got a new CEO that
- 0:59Speaker 1: came in to the organization and this guy is looking
- 1:04Speaker 1: to re strengthening the Japan's business but also a new
- 1:08Speaker 1: strategy going forward. Take a look at this clip.
- 1:11Speaker 2: In ten years, Shahai Ruby brands Seam with innovation, innovative
- 1:18Speaker 2: city of technology and finance with the power of science
- 1:22Speaker 2: and technology.
- 1:25Speaker 1: All right, So you saw his vision there, and part
- 1:27Speaker 1: of this vision is where uh, this banking giant is
- 1:32Speaker 1: going to be moving. And one of the key things
- 1:34Speaker 1: right here is Japan's drinking banking giant, SMBC plans a
- 1:38Speaker 1: stable coin launch next year. And guess what, guys, Right there,
- 1:42Speaker 1: Sumi Tomo, parent company of Japan's second largest bank, SMBC,
- 1:47Speaker 1: now stepping into the stable coin space. The bank is
- 1:49Speaker 1: collaborating with Ava Labs. That's Avalanche for you guys that
- 1:53Speaker 1: are brand new to crypto and their blockchain infrastructure and
- 1:57Speaker 1: of course Fireblacks and this is going to be for
- 1:59Speaker 1: token management. So basically what you're talking about is an
- 2:01Speaker 1: Avalanche stable token in the largest bank organization within Japan.
- 2:06Speaker 1: All of that plays into an investment that has been
- 2:10Speaker 1: brewing and that is this right here. Because Sumi Tomo
- 2:14Speaker 1: also took a fourteen percent steak in SBI. Remember that
- 2:19Speaker 1: if they're aligned with Avalanche, then it's very possible that
- 2:22Speaker 1: maybe Avalanche could also be incorporated into SBI as well.
- 2:26Speaker 1: And remember SBI and Ripple have pretty much been lockstep.
- 2:29Speaker 1: Now you take that data and you also look at
- 2:32Speaker 1: where the trends are going, because people now see this
- 2:34Speaker 1: market as one of the biggest markets out there for growth.
- 2:38Speaker 1: And what you have to do is follow Warren Buffett.
- 2:40Speaker 1: Warren Buffett of course increases his steak in Ripple partner
- 2:44Speaker 1: Sumi Toomo Corp. So again he sees this on the
- 2:48Speaker 1: forefront of where the Japanese banking system could be a
- 2:52Speaker 1: huge boom. Take a look at this next clip.
- 2:55Speaker 3: So I started buying all five the five largest trading companies,
- 2:59Speaker 3: somewhat over of each company, and we were buying identical amounts,
- 3:04Speaker 3: and we now own seven point four percent of each
- 3:09Speaker 3: of the companies. It's worked out very well so far.
- 3:11Speaker 3: But we'll be in these stocks done twenty years. I mean,
- 3:15Speaker 3: we weren't buying with the idea they call it next week,
- 3:17Speaker 3: next month, next year. We have had revelations about each
- 3:21Speaker 3: of the companies, and we'll never run out of money.
- 3:24Speaker 3: I mean, they can call us at any time.
- 3:26Speaker 1: All right, Let's go to the news release here from
- 3:28Speaker 1: Sumitomo and Avalanche. This is them talking about the commercial
- 3:31Speaker 1: use of stable coins within the memo, they actually go
- 3:34Speaker 1: a little deeper and they're talking about other scenarios where
- 3:37Speaker 1: this can be used international reomen's as corporate payments, small value,
- 3:41Speaker 1: high frequency transactions. All of that is going to be
- 3:44Speaker 1: lower costs for potential payment methods. And the other thing
- 3:47Speaker 1: that's going to hit on is the tokenization of traditional
- 3:50Speaker 1: finances and those RWA assets, which have grown very rapidly,
- 3:54Speaker 1: so they are clearly positioning for a digital asset future.
- 3:59Speaker 1: The biggest bank or organizations within Japan, Buffett sees this.
- 4:03Speaker 1: He understands the use of this Avalanche connected. Now you
- 4:07Speaker 1: understand where Buffett and Avalanche are aligned of where this
- 4:10Speaker 1: is going off. If you look at Avalanche and their
- 4:12Speaker 1: RWA and their tokenization, almost every major bank in there
- 4:17Speaker 1: MasterCards in their city bank, You've got Fidelity in there,
- 4:21Speaker 1: a whole slew of these. Now you're going to have
- 4:23Speaker 1: this group of course residing in this as well. Let's
- 4:27Speaker 1: take further look into this because you've got to consider
- 4:29Speaker 1: on other news, Shrapnel, who is partnering with the Chinese
- 4:33Speaker 1: government to launch the first licensed web three. Now this
- 4:35Speaker 1: is all about IP and it's an official RBA chain,
- 4:39Speaker 1: So have they maybe launched an l one.
- 4:42Speaker 3: Okay.
- 4:42Speaker 1: So in terms of IP if you look at right
- 4:44Speaker 1: there what Shrapnel is doing. And if you look at
- 4:47Speaker 1: the United States, one of the biggest problems has been ticketing.
- 4:51Speaker 1: Look what happened right here. Take a look.
- 4:53Speaker 3: So this is an executive order, as you said, that
- 4:55Speaker 3: deals with the ticket reselling business.
- 4:58Speaker 1: They've tried this in some place in your and it
- 5:00Speaker 1: seems to be do anything.
- 5:01Speaker 3: That's us as artists be able to get the tickets
- 5:04Speaker 3: into the hands of the fans at the prices we set.
- 5:06Speaker 1: It bothers them, It bothers a lot of other artists too.
- 5:09Speaker 3: And what is the primary culprit who sells these signets.
- 5:13Speaker 2: It's that these bots go in and they're automated.
- 5:15Speaker 3: So you're ass as you're a company involved, you might
- 5:19Speaker 3: know no, no, well, well there's reselling markets all yeah. No,
- 5:25Speaker 3: if Ticketmaster sells a ticket, if you buy a ticket
- 5:27Speaker 3: go to a show, you're in a lot of ways
- 5:29Speaker 3: they're worst customer.
- 5:31Speaker 1: So based on that executive order, Tickspace is essentially in
- 5:34Speaker 1: the right position, because what this means is that all
- 5:37Speaker 1: of the ticket transactions are going to have to be transparent,
- 5:40Speaker 1: simply meaning it's going to be on the blockchain. Blockchain
- 5:43Speaker 1: of course in this particular case is Avalanche, but we
- 5:45Speaker 1: could see others starting to go into this industry as well,
- 5:49Speaker 1: because this will change things in a big way for sure.
- 5:52Speaker 1: Now let's not forget that there's also other things that
- 5:55Speaker 1: are happening today, and that is all around the TikTok
- 5:58Speaker 1: proposal that potentially we'll get announced maybe even in the
- 6:02Speaker 1: Rose Garden today when they talk about the tariffs. But
- 6:05Speaker 1: Trump is going to consider a final TikTok proposal on Wednesday,
- 6:09Speaker 1: And of course potential investors could include Blackstone. Now this
- 6:13Speaker 1: is where it gets interesting because Blackstone is a new
- 6:16Speaker 1: participant here. Let me go over to Blackstone, which is
- 6:18Speaker 1: lining up four hundred million from guess who Sumi Toomu
- 6:22Speaker 1: with Suey which is industrial refinancing. But at the point being,
- 6:26Speaker 1: all of this connects the dots here for what Sumi
- 6:29Speaker 1: Tomo is doing around tokenized assets. Now, if you connect
- 6:33Speaker 1: the dots there on tokenized assets Blackstone, guess what Avalanche
- 6:38Speaker 1: starts to be the potential there again, So some very
- 6:42Speaker 1: cool things going on. Last up here, Warren Buffett makes
- 6:45Speaker 1: a sharp U turn as Bircher Hathaway discloses almost eight
- 6:48Speaker 1: hundred and ninety through mill Steak in a crypto bank. Now,
- 6:52Speaker 1: you guys remember this one. This was New Bank, and
- 6:55Speaker 1: remember New Bank was on Polygon and they had their supernats.
- 7:00Speaker 1: The thing launched, it wasn't a great launch, and then
- 7:03Speaker 1: eventually New Bank came back in. This is back in
- 7:05Speaker 1: September of last year, said hey, we're announcing the end
- 7:08Speaker 1: of new coin negotiations immediately, and they were done. They
- 7:11Speaker 1: were out. The potential, though, is where do these banks
- 7:15Speaker 1: potentially go. Well, it's likely that we could see more
- 7:18Speaker 1: involvement inside, especially if Warren Buffin is involved in. If
- 7:22Speaker 1: we look at where these Japanese banks could be going,
- 7:25Speaker 1: we could actually have one of these l ones right
- 7:28Speaker 1: here when you go in and look at the growth
- 7:30Speaker 1: right here, look at that the highest ever Let me
- 7:32Speaker 1: kind of see if I can zoom in on that
- 7:34Speaker 1: for you guys, the highest ever of transactions right here
- 7:39Speaker 1: on March twenty fifth, Right there there aunt seventy four
- 7:42Speaker 1: thousand addresses created on l onees. So again, a lot
- 7:45Speaker 1: of new l ones being launched on Avalanche may be
- 7:49Speaker 1: in alignment with what is going on in the market.
- 7:51Speaker 1: We're going to continue to cover this because there could
- 7:53Speaker 1: be some big news coming very shortly that would be
- 7:57Speaker 1: really good for Avalanche. So make sure answer subscribe to
