Latest / Simply Bitcoin / The Big Print Is Coming & Bitcoin Will Still Fail You... | Bitcoin Simply
Transcript
- 0:00One of the most concerning charts you'll ever see is this
- 0:02one. A physical barrel of oil is at
- 0:05141 dollars a barrel. Today we're going to show you a
- 0:08clip of an insider who tracked the price of oil at $173 a
- 0:12barrel over the weekend. With energy prices at these
- 0:15levels, massive inflation prints are just around the corner.
- 0:18And so is the end game with the big print that we've been
- 0:21talking about for a long time. And although I have all the
- 0:24faith in the world, in Bitcoin, I know that in the end it's
- 0:28going to fail me. And no, it's not because Google
- 0:30just released a theoretical paper about quantum.
- 0:33Bitcoin will fail for one reason and one reason only.
- 0:36And I'll give my honest thoughts on that today.
- 0:38This is Dante Coco. Bitcoin.
- 0:40Simply, let's go. I won't sugarcoat what's going
- 0:47on. The war in Iran is ugly, and
- 0:49it's getting even uglier. The energy crisis that we're
- 0:52seeing now is going to trickle its way into everything.
- 0:54It just hasn't made its way fully into the prices of
- 0:57everyday goods that we normally buy just yet.
- 0:59And the real reason is this. You can't print molecules.
- 1:03Jeff Curry of Carlisle writing this.
- 1:05The cost of rebuilding and recovering from the Hormer's
- 1:08shock will be enormous and underscores the regime change
- 1:11towards physical assets. Jeff joins us now for more.
- 1:14Jeff, welcome to the programme. It's always good to catch up
- 1:16with you, Sir. Fluid environment.
- 1:18So allow me to go through the headline of the last five or 10
- 1:20minutes or so. One headline, one report coming
- 1:22from Iran that their energy assets have been struck.
- 1:25Now I have limited information beyond that.
- 1:28But Jeff, from your standpoint, in the week since we last spoke,
- 1:31has this got worse or better? Worse, I like to call it
- 1:36molecular contagion. You know, last week we were
- 1:39talking about shortages in Singapore, you know, spices of
- 1:42jet fuel spiked to $230 a barrel.
- 1:45This week, you know, it's in Rotterdam, Rotterdam's $220 a
- 1:48barrel, Thailand, Philippines, New Zealand, Australia.
- 1:52So this thing's going intercontinental.
- 1:54And then, you know, so you look at Singapore, Rotterdam, the
- 1:57spread, there's no more price spread, there's no more spare
- 2:00barrels, there's no policy fix. And it's just physics at this
- 2:03point. I think I want to emphasize
- 2:04these are physical supply chains and that the idea of around
- 2:09financialization and the ability to print money doesn't apply
- 2:12here. And I think the title of that
- 2:13piece says it all. You can't print molecules the.
- 2:16Contraction in stocks and home prices is showing us that the
- 2:19wealth destruction is just beginning.
- 2:21People are going to start to realize that the system is just
- 2:23propped up on the value of paper assets, and it's only sustained
- 2:27by the government's ability to manipulate the prices of those
- 2:30paper assets. This is fiscal dominance in a
- 2:33nutshell. We run deficits on paper that we
- 2:36can't actually meet in the real world, so we print money to
- 2:40satisfy the needs of the debt that needs to be repaid.
- 2:43And like Larry Leopard, This is why I believe with every bone in
- 2:46my body, that the only way to survive the next big print is by
- 2:50owning hard and real assets. Powell is bluffing.
- 2:54He says we're going to get inflation back to 2%.
- 2:56He says we haven't lost control even though he has and the
- 3:00market believes him because the forward swaps are at 275 for
- 3:03five year inflation. It's bullshit, but people
- 3:06believe him. When things start to break, he
- 3:09will have to change his tune well before the inflation rate
- 3:122% and everyone's going to go uh huh, that's interesting.
- 3:17He really has lost control. He cannot get inflation down.
- 3:22All those guys have been talking about inflation is inevitable.
- 3:25They are right. And then you're going to see
- 3:27just an enormous movement of capital from other things into
- 3:32our things. There's $450 trillion of Fiat
- 3:35shit in the world, cash, stocks and bonds, all of Bitcoin.
- 3:40What does it say? 350 billion, 400 billion, So 450
- 3:44trillion, you know, 400 billion of Bitcoin, let's call it 6 or 7
- 3:49trillion of sound money, Bitcoin, gold, gold, stocks.
- 3:52OK, 450 trill of unsound money, bonds, cash and stocks.
- 3:58When a quorum of the people come to the conclusion that they can
- 4:02never stop printing and that it is inevitable that they will
- 4:05have to continue to print, they are going to say please protect
- 4:09my assets in stuff that you cannot be printed.
- 4:13All it takes, it doesn't take the whole 450 coming into
- 4:15Bitcoin or gold for us to go way up in price.
- 4:19Even if only 10% of it comes in, that's $45 trillion chasing 7.
- 4:25How much does the value of our stuff have to go up?
- 4:27You know, it's, it's true that in, in 1980 when gold was very
- 4:31hot and very, you know, everyone thought inflation would go on
- 4:33forever, right at the peak of that market before Volcker tamed
- 4:36it. OK, in 1980, you know, gold
- 4:39represented 20% of all financial assets, You know, at that time,
- 4:44I mean, gold and Bitcoin today represent less than 1% of all
- 4:48financial assets. So there's plenty of upside here
- 4:50in the sound money stuff if one assumes that they can never stop
- 4:54printing. And I believe that, you know,
- 4:56with every, you know, every bone in my body, I believe that.
- 4:59And with every bone in my body, I believe that this is true.
- 5:02But in the end, I believe that Bitcoin will fail, and it's a
- 5:06reason that I don't think people with platforms like mine talk
- 5:09about very often. And no, it's not quantum.
- 5:12It's not from Neha's writing, which has almost no value in my
- 5:16opinion. It's not because Cal Berkeley
- 5:18and Caltech released an article about quantum and Google's paper
- 5:22is honestly not worth my time. Why?
- 5:24Let me just give you a simple argument.
- 5:26If we have a worldwide shortage on energy resources, minerals,
- 5:29compute chips because of war, and for AI, which is already
- 5:34received trillions in investment in CapEx, do you think that the
- 5:37need for a quantum computer will supersede these shortages?
- 5:40Do you think governments are going to stop funding their need
- 5:42to build chips and missiles and defense capabilities just so
- 5:45that they can build a quantum computer?
- 5:47What about the need to increase real productivity versus a
- 5:50growing pile of debt? If you think that those things
- 5:52are true, then you're not being realistic.
- 5:54Also, if you actually read all of these papers, the real
- 5:57constraint that comes is that these quantum computers only
- 6:00exist in a world of Minecraft, a theoretical imaginary world
- 6:03where you can do anything and anything can be made-up.
- 6:06There are no physical limits in this theoretical world that
- 6:09they're imagining. We're in a pretentious situation
- 6:11with China right now in Taiwan, because Taiwan is the only place
- 6:14in the world that has the capability to mass produce chips
- 6:17that we need for things in everyday items, not even quantum
- 6:20computers. And you know how long it took
- 6:22Taiwan and TSMC to build this capability?
- 6:2450 years. So how long do you think it will
- 6:27take to manufacture a single chip that can manufacture
- 6:30quantum States and coordinate those quantum states in open and
- 6:33windows with thousands of other chips simultaneously
- 6:36manipulating the atoms to do this compute within 10 minutes,
- 6:40which is what you need to break a Bitcoin block and encryption.
- 6:43What does that supply chain look like?
- 6:45What does the energy, materials, knowledge, and IP to build that
- 6:48sort of capability look like? But that's not the reason the
- 6:51Bitcoin will fail. I'll tell you right after we
- 6:53thank our sponsors. If you know that Bitcoin is the
- 6:55supreme asset and it's going to continue to go up forever in
- 6:58light of the value of a decreasing value of Fiat
- 7:01currency, then you shouldn't sell that asset that you borrow
- 7:04against it and and pay back your liabilities in the currency that
- 7:08is getting weaker. And that's exactly what lead and
- 7:10lets everyday people do. This is something that used to
- 7:13only be available to institutions, but now you can do
- 7:15it by signing up at learn dot lead and dot AO slash.
- 7:18Simply what you do is you post your Bitcoin as collateral onto
- 7:22their platform. You then get Fiat in your
- 7:24account in less than six hours and an interest rate of 9.9 to
- 7:2811.49%. And you can repay this at any
- 7:31time. But what it allows you to do is
- 7:33to never sell your Bitcoin. There's no capital gains.
- 7:36There's no penalty for getting this Fiat.
- 7:38That's half of what you could get for a credit card, and you
- 7:42don't actually get a credit hit. You just borrow against your
- 7:44Bitcoin privately, safely between yourself.
- 7:47Go to learn dot leadin dot AO and fill out the application,
- 7:49which takes just two minutes to get started.
- 7:51I'm a believer because I'm a user of the product.
- 7:54Whenever I need to make a big purchase, well, I don't go to
- 7:58the credit markets because I don't believe in them.
- 8:00I use my Bitcoin as collateral. The other thing that I believe
- 8:03in is being prepared before it comes time that you need to be
- 8:07prepared. It's like an umbrella.
- 8:08It's better to have it and not need it than need it and not
- 8:11have it. And that knowledge that you need
- 8:13for becoming sovereign with your Bitcoin is something that you
- 8:15need to develop now. Don't do it on your own.
- 8:18Get a coach at the bitcoinway.com.
- 8:20Members of their team will walk you through how you and your
- 8:22family can be prepared for the best and the worst scenarios in
- 8:25Bitcoin. They're going to teach you how
- 8:27to manage it privately, safely, securely, so when stuff hits the
- 8:29fan, you're ready and you're prepared.
- 8:32Go to the Bitcoin Waycom partner, Dante Cook.
- 8:35From doing this show and being in Bitcoin so long, I get people
- 8:38that come out to me all the time. 1 cool thing happened this
- 8:40weekend at an AIA breakfast. A legend of the hardwood
- 8:43breakfast for the John Wooden Award, which is given to the
- 8:47coach that exemplifies their integrity, their character and
- 8:50their Christ like following in the NCA.
- 8:52There was a breakfast that they did and there were hundreds of
- 8:55people that got to come to this breakfast, top players in the
- 8:57NCA, NBA players, NBA greats. It's a cool event but at this
- 9:02event someone came up to me and stopped me.
- 9:04Who recognize me from this show in Bitcoin.
- 9:06And what I realize is the real reason that people do follow me
- 9:10in this content is because of authenticity.
- 9:12I give you the real of what I feel.
- 9:15I'm not doing this to get clicks.
- 9:16I'm not doing this to get likes. I'm doing this because I
- 9:18genuinely believe in the value of serving other people with
- 9:21information that I already know and that I've been fortunate and
- 9:24blessed enough to learn on my own.
- 9:25And let me give you the real of what I actually believe.
- 9:28In the end, Bitcoin will fail because Bitcoin was never meant
- 9:31to save you in the 1st place. It never could.
- 9:34And instead of me waxing poetic about all of these things, the
- 9:38thing that's going on right now at the final Four in college
- 9:40basketball, the greatest time of the year with masters right
- 9:43around the corner, is these athletes get to get up and they
- 9:46get to share about who they are, why they do what they do.
- 9:49Here's a great clip from Coopete, which I think
- 9:51personifies me and my purpose for this show.
- 9:54And it's beyond just sharing information about Bitcoin
- 9:57without. Faith I'm nothing So, so, you
- 9:59know, just I've been really faithful since a young child.
- 10:01You know, my dad was a pastor, but you know, just something
- 10:06that, you know, it's really, really big for me.
- 10:08You know, I don't think, you know, basketball is really my
- 10:10purpose. I think, you know, being able
- 10:12to, you know, have this platform, you know, spread the
- 10:13gospel is really my, my purpose for sure.
- 10:17Without a doubt, this is the greatest time of year, not just
- 10:20because of the Easter holiday, but because the Masters is
- 10:23coming up. And with that, we get a day to
- 10:26just enjoy family, enjoy friends and to watch great content and
- 10:29behind the scenes of what these people actually feel and
- 10:32believe. And one of the leaders in golf
- 10:34right now, the number one player in the world, one of the
- 10:36greatest to ever do it. Scotty Schaeffler talks about
- 10:38his why and why he strives for excellence in golf.
- 10:41I think it always goes back to the why.
- 10:43So like, why there's nothing. I think that's something that
- 10:46always gets messed up with faith too, is it's like it's not a bad
- 10:49thing to pursue excellence. When I think about golf and
- 10:52like, why do I play golf? I play golf to glorify God.
- 10:55When I go out and practice, I'm glorifying God by going out and
- 10:58practicing. I want to get the most out of
- 11:01that time with my practice. It's not bad to have the desire
- 11:04to want to be really good at something.
- 11:05That's a good thing. It's just the why.
- 11:09It's like, do I want to be a really good golfer so that I can
- 11:11become famous, or do I want to become a really good golfer to
- 11:13glorify God? And so I think when you're
- 11:16looking at trying to become excellent, excellent at
- 11:18something, I think you always just got to.
- 11:20Go. When it comes down to this
- 11:21weekend, it's important for me to recognize that the root of
- 11:26all of what I believe in Christianity, and you don't have
- 11:28to believe in it, hinges on one singular moment, one particular
- 11:33event, and that is the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
- 11:35which a lot of people debate and a lot of people believe it's not
- 11:38true. And it's all made-up and it was
- 11:39all fiction and it's all a bunch of things that people wrote from
- 11:42thousands of years ago that aren't actually true.
- 11:44But I do believe it. And like Terrace Reed, my goal
- 11:48here is to serve. That is why I do this show fact
- 11:51that. This is Easter weekend.
- 11:53How significant is that to you? And the fact that it What does
- 11:55the resurrection mean to? You yeah, well, that's a good
- 11:57question. I mean the resurrection, so the
- 11:59everything that's like the the staple of Christianity.
- 12:01So like without the resurrection, there is no
- 12:03Christian, there is no Jesus. So I feel like once you can show
- 12:06a lot of significant evidence for the resurrection, I mean it
- 12:09shows it shows a lot of the truth towards Christianity.
- 12:11So I feel like I just go through where I came from throughout my
- 12:14college career, how Jesus just literally changed my mind.
- 12:16Like he changed everything about me.
- 12:18And it's crazy looking back, like I saw my old team Michigan
- 12:21the other day and spoke to a couple of those guys.
- 12:23They're like, like we just seen each other just grow so much and
- 12:26just change. So it's just been a blessing
- 12:28just to see myself just like I said, grow through Jesus.
- 12:31I mean, he just like I said, wipe my eyes clean.
- 12:33My whole mind is different. The way I talk, we'll all act,
- 12:36change the way I treat other people.
- 12:37It's like more not to get, but more to serve.
- 12:40You know? I feel like I'm here here to
- 12:41really serve and serve others. So let me give you some final
- 12:45thoughts from another relevant topic and event.
- 12:47This quote comes from Victor Glover, who's the pilot of the
- 12:50Artemis 2 rocket that just launched into space.
- 12:53We need Jesus, whether we're on Earth or whether we're circling
- 12:56the moon. But why?
- 12:57As bitcoiners, let me give you this analogy.
- 13:00We fundamentally believe that running fiscal deficits is
- 13:02wrong. But why does debt need to be
- 13:04repaid at all? Why does justice and fairness
- 13:07matter? Why does truth matter?
- 13:09If you don't believe in these things, you don't believe in
- 13:11Bitcoin at all. But the fundamental reason why I
- 13:13think that these questions are important to you are and are
- 13:16important to all humans, is because there's something,
- 13:19someone that embedded this idea at our core, at the core of our
- 13:23belief system as humans. When we see war going on in
- 13:27Iran, when we see people being killed endlessly, we have this
- 13:30idea that this is wrong. But why?
- 13:33Because life matters and life is precious.
- 13:35If there wasn't a fundamental belief underneath of all of
- 13:38that, then life would be meaningless.
- 13:39You would never ask a question about what is happening to these
- 13:42people after they die. It's embedded to who you are and
- 13:46you've never been able to shake that question no matter how much
- 13:48Bitcoin that you have. Why did 11 of 12 of Jesus
- 13:51disciples all die a horrific death by martyr for what they
- 13:55believed in at the end? If he was a fake, a phony, a
- 13:58scam, or they were rug pulled like we say in the crypto world,
- 14:03then they would have just walked away.
- 14:04They would have just completely denied them.
- 14:06But at their core, they saw the truth face to face.
- 14:09They were met with something that even at one point they
- 14:11didn't believe themselves, but in the end they couldn't deny.
- 14:15That's what conviction looks like.
- 14:17That's what diamond hands looks like.
- 14:19That's what believing at your core actually looks like.
- 14:23So in the end, you can die with all the Bitcoin in the world,
- 14:25and though your future may be secure on a blockchain here on
- 14:28Earth, what happens after that? You might want to find the
- 14:31person who has the key to allow you to hop on the next immutable
- 14:34Ledger, my friend. Leave a note in the comments.
- 14:37I'm interested to hear what you all see and what you all
- 14:39believe. You don't have to believe what I
- 14:41believe, but I'm sharing my why behind what I do in this show.
- 14:44And I'm so thankful that I get to be real and authentic with
- 14:46people out there, that I have an impact on people out there in
- 14:49the real world. And I hope this is useful.
- 14:59Jesus Christ. Before we go, this show wouldn't
- 15:04be possible without our sponsors.
- 15:06This is how the team is supported.
- 15:07This is how people edit the videos.
- 15:09This is how we do what we do. The team at SAS Mining, they
- 15:13allow you to stack Bitcoin around the clock 24/7.
- 15:16You don't need to understand what a Bitcoin miner does.
- 15:18You just need to understand that it gives you great tax benefits.
- 15:21It allows you to offset capital gains with a section 179
- 15:25depreciation schedule, and it allows you to have SAS flow
- 15:28directly to your wallet. You give them money, they help
- 15:31you find a machine, they maintain it, they keep it up,
- 15:33they keep it repaired. Use the QR code to get started
- 15:35with SAS mining today. This is Dante Cook with Bitcoin.
- 15:38Simply happy stacking and happy Easter.
