- 0:51Bitcoin breaks all time high in market cap.
- 0:53It's rallying above 66 K right now and it looks like it's in
- 0:58route to pass all time high before having queue the bull
- 1:02began its run meme. It's going up forever and it's
- 1:06man, it feels good being vindicated as a bitcoiner.
- 1:08You know it's a long bear market.
- 1:09Everyone called us an idiot and here we are and we're starting
- 1:12to get the text and the calls from our friends and family
- 1:16asking us, is it time to buy Bitcoin?
- 1:18It's always a good time to buy Bitcoin, but of course let's not
- 1:23get caught up in the hype and This is why in the numbers.
- 1:25I wanted to play this video that just got dropped of Jack
- 1:28Mahler's on on the corporate press this morning and again he
- 1:33keeps dropping the signal to remind us why we're here and why
- 1:37the Bitcoin price is pumping. And again, you know, we all get
- 1:40caught up in the price, but we will be talking about bitcoins
- 1:44market cap breaking all time high.
- 1:46We're going to compare it to other assets and where Bitcoin
- 1:50is. You know, it's closing in on
- 1:51Silver's market cap and of course we're we're seeing that
- 1:56there might be some signs and I don't want to get into the doom
- 2:00and gloom here, but there might be some signs of trouble in the
- 2:03traditional financial world. But all of us bitcoiners are
- 2:05just enjoying life because they'll become prices pumping
- 2:08and Fiat is collapsing against Bitcoin in real time.
- 2:12Man, I hope you guys have been stacking, I hope you continue to
- 2:15stack because it looks like we are entering the bull market,
- 2:20the next leg of the bull market and it's going to be a great 18
- 2:24months and we haven't even hit the halving yet.
- 2:26We haven't even seen true scarcity hit the market.
- 2:29We haven't even seen the FOMO from retail.
- 2:31We're seeing the institutional FOMO, man.
- 2:34It's gonna be a great 18 months and you're on the front lines.
- 2:37You are the smart ones that were stacking while everyone told us
- 2:41we were dumb. Feels good, man.

- 4:10We're we're doing the work out here.
- 4:11I really appreciate it, man. It always blows my mind.
- 4:15Like, we've had a few examples the last week of people coming
- 4:17on the show and they're like, dude, you guys helped us become
- 4:19big corners. And you know, we forget
- 4:21sometimes that we're actually helping people out there because
- 4:24we just like talking to our computer.
- 4:25It's just like, it's like hanging out with your boys, just
- 4:28chatting, and then you forget that there's other people
- 4:30watching. So, man, Jose, I really
- 4:32appreciate it. But without further ado guys,
- 4:35let's get into today's show. And of course first thing on the
- 4:40docket guys is shouts out to bitcoinwellbitcoinwell.com.
- 4:44Make sure you are signing up to the Bitcoin jackpot contest
- 4:48bitcoinwell.com/app. You guys can see on the screen
- 4:52there's a. There's another URL, but I think
- 4:55if you just go bitcoinwell.com/app you will get
- 4:58signed into the jackpot. The jackpot right now is
- 5:02currently at 1.5 million sets, so the more people sign up, the
- 5:06more referrals we get, the more Sats you can potentially win.
- 5:11And of course, Bitcoin. While is a publicly traded
- 5:13company under the ticker, I just learned this under the ticker BC
- 5:16and WF in the US markets. They just expanded to America
- 5:21from Canada. It's a Bitcoin only exchange
- 5:23with self custody by the by default.
- 5:25This is the way guys, you need to take your Bitcoin into
- 5:28custody and they want your feedback guys.
- 5:30So get in touch with the Bitcoin Well team, use the platform.
- 5:33Tell them how we can make the best self custody Bitcoin
- 5:37exchange possible. Go to bitcoinwell.com and Sign
- 5:41up today. This is the way guys.
- 5:43All right, let's get into the numbers.
- 5:46The Bitcoin numbers. Is your Bitcoin in cold storage
- 5:50really secure? Is your seed phrase really
- 5:53secure? Stamp seeds?
- 5:54Do it yourself. Kit has everything you need to
- 5:57hammer your seed words into commercial grade titanium plates
- 6:02instead of just writing them on paper.
- 6:04Don't store your generational wealth on paper.
- 6:08Papers prone to water damage, fire damage.
- 6:10You want to put your generational wealth on one of
- 6:12the strongest metals on planet earth, Titanium.
- 6:16Your words are actually stamped into this metal plate with this
- 6:19hammer and these letter stamps. And once your words are in, they
- 6:22aren't going anywhere. No risk of the plate breaking
- 6:25apart and pieces falling everywhere.
- 6:28Titanium stamp seeds will survive nearly triple the heat
- 6:31produced by a house fire. They're also crush proof,
- 6:33waterproof, non corrosive, and time proof.
- 6:36All things that paper is not allowing you to huddle your
- 6:39Bitcoin with Peace of Mind for the long haul.
- 6:42Stamp your seed on stamp seed. Of course guys, we made it easy
- 6:47for you. Scan the QR code.
- 6:49Wait over there. The mirror is confusing me this
- 6:51morning. Stand the QR code.
- 6:53Make sure you are not leaving your seed phrase on a piece of
- 6:55paper in your sock drawer. Put it on something
- 6:58indestructible, like titanium. All right, guys, let's get into
- 7:02the numbers because hey, man, the numbers are.
- 7:04It's getting crazy out there, man.
- 7:06It's getting crazy. And of course, yeah, yeah, like
- 7:09Bitcoin price going up, but the only number that really matters
- 7:13is the block height. TikTok next block.
- 7:15It's almost like Bitcoin works. It's almost like it works
- 7:18exactly as designed. And we are reaching.
- 7:20Yeah, almost. We're reaching a new block
- 7:23height every 10 minutes, roughly every 10 minutes.
- 7:26And we're currently at a block height of 833,131 and the
- 7:31Bitcoin price is at 67,004, $100.
- 7:38It's pumping because simply, Bitcoin is on.
- 7:40Remember that the old meme the price used to pump when we went
- 7:43live? And now, hey, we're back, we're
- 7:45so back. Anyways, the stats per dollar,
- 7:47AKA how much Bitcoin you can buy for a single dollar, AKA how
- 7:50much your dollar is worth in Bitcoin, is currently at 1484
- 7:54Sats. Wow, we're getting close to
- 7:56under 1000 Sats. That's crazy.
- 7:58All right. The total percentage, Yeah, it's
- 8:01getting depressed together. The total percentage of Bitcoin
- 8:04that will ever be issued, I repeat, that will ever be issued
- 8:07is at 93.54%. The market cap of Bitcoin in
- 8:11dollar terms is at $1.32 trillion.
- 8:14Wow. I think we just hit the silver
- 8:17market cap. So if the price goes up past
- 8:20$68,000, I think we just surpassed the silver market cap,
- 8:24but we're we're kissing it right now.
- 8:26Absolutely incredible. We'll get into that.
- 8:27In the news. The realized monetary inflation
- 8:29taking Fiat courtesies of school is at 1.74% and going down in
- 8:33April. Oh man, it's almost like Bitcoin
- 8:36is the hardest money in the world and the Bitcoin versus
- 8:38gold market cap is at 9.59%. We're almost at 10% of the gold
- 8:43market cap. Wow.
- 8:44Only half a percent until we get to 10% of the golden market
- 8:49count. Incredible.
- 8:50Incredible. I think when we first started
- 8:51covering this number, we were at like 3%.
- 8:55Now we're at 10% man, we're coming for gold.
- 8:57We're coming for the gold bugs. Let's go.
- 8:59The total lightning Bitcoin capacity, public Bitcoin
- 9:02capacity is 4400.71 BTC. And the hash rate the last 90
- 9:06days, roughly around 535.5 XA hashes it seems.
- 9:11It seems like the miners are slowing down so we can hit the
- 9:14meme date of the halving of April 20th, 2024.
- 9:18And we are 6869 blocks till the halving.
- 9:24It's coming, guys. It's coming.
- 9:27Incredible. Incredible.
- 9:28All right, of course. Got to update you guys on the
- 9:31spot Bitcoin ETF numbers. Even though we are custody
- 9:34Maxi's here, Wall Street is still scooping up an insane
- 9:38amount of Bitcoin. It's absolutely insane how much
- 9:42Bitcoin they're scooping up. If you follow along, you know
- 9:45Black Rocks been taking up thousands of Bitcoin a day.
- 9:48You can see it went up 1000 over the weekend.
- 9:51I don't even know how that's possible.
- 9:52Maybe it was by the time we ended the show to the end of the
- 9:56day close, they got another thousand Bitcoin in there.
- 9:59So BlackRock, ETFA, 164,501 Bitcoin, the Fidelity 100 and
- 10:054128 and just head and shoulders above everyone else.
- 10:08So it looks like there's some some clear winners in the ETF
- 10:13game and it's only getting crazier.
- 10:15Remember, it took Michael Saylor about, what, three to four
- 10:19years? They get close to 1% of the
- 10:21Bitcoin supply and BlackRock comes in six, 7-8 weeks and is
- 10:26already there. It goes to show you one thing,
- 10:30the clients of BlackRock, Wall Street, they are so interested
- 10:36in Bitcoin. They want your Bitcoin.
- 10:37So make sure you're taking that Bitcoin into custody and holding
- 10:41it in cold storage. All right.
- 10:42Now guys, before I get into some bullish stuff and we talk about
- 10:45the Bitcoin market cap reaching all time highs.
- 10:48We talk about it about to you know surpass silver.
- 10:52We talk about all the crazy stuff going on in the world.
- 10:56Let's play this video by Jack Mahlers.
- 10:58It is a 10 minute video. I'm not going to play the whole
- 11:00thing. I'm just going to play the first
- 11:01few minutes because I think he very simply and and that's the
- 11:05goal here is let's propagate the Bitcoin memes so that normal
- 11:09people know what's going on. We don't have to think boy this
- 11:11stuff just very simply keep it simple explaining why Bitcoin is
- 11:16going up and Jack Mahler is just he's the king of this.
- 11:19So he's on CNBC this morning and he just you know continues to
- 11:23beat the drama. Why Bitcoin is the only accident
- 11:26in the world where more demand can't find more supply and This
- 11:29is why we're seeing the price pump.
- 11:31So I'm going to play the 1st 2:00 2 1/2 minutes.
- 11:34It's. It is on 1.25 X, so you know
- 11:36Jack Mahler's talks fast. But hey, our brains work out
- 11:391.25 anyway, so let's hear this conversation and then we'll talk
- 11:42about it. Mahler's He's the CEO of Strike
- 11:44Jack, it is great to see you. Thanks so much for taking the
- 11:45time. Kay, I'm pumped.
- 11:47Thank you so much for having me. I'm sure one of the reasons you
- 11:50are pumped is because of the price of Bitcoin.
- 11:52What do you think is driving some of the price action?
- 11:54You have been a long time advocate investor.
- 11:57What's going on with the price above 60,000 this week?
- 11:59Totally. The price of Bitcoin does not
- 12:01suck. I think the price action is a
- 12:03lot simpler than people make it out to be.
- 12:06It's because Bitcoin is the only asset in the world where more
- 12:08demand can't find more supply. It's a very simply, it's a
- 12:12demand supply. Shock to the upside.
- 12:14What's important for your your viewers is contrast that against
- 12:16something like gold or something like a stock of a company.
- 12:19There's a lot more gold in the ground and the earth, but
- 12:21there's not enough demand for us to go dig it out of the ground.
- 12:24If there was enough demand for gold, we would find more gold.
- 12:27Let's take Facebook stock for example.
- 12:29If there was enough bidders for Facebook stock or meta stock,
- 12:32Zuckerberg would issue more. He'd split the stock, right?
- 12:34So more demand. Kate always finds more supply,
- 12:37except for Bitcoin. It's the only monetary asset in
- 12:39the world. Well, that's not true.
- 12:40So more demand has to find a higher price.
- 12:42More demand. The supply is coming from
- 12:44existing holders. It's not coming out of the
- 12:45ground. It's not coming from a stock
- 12:47split. Does that make sense?
- 12:48So they're going to have to get the price high enough for a
- 12:49holder like me to be willing to sell it to BlackRock.
- 12:52And they got a lot more to go to bid to the upside to find that.
- 12:54So you're just seeing price discovery in a very scarce
- 12:56asset. That's it.
- 12:57And now I think a lot of people's cost base is now that
- 12:59Bitcoin is back near an all time high.
- 13:00I think that's also an important dynamic too, that fewer people
- 13:03are holding Bitcoin at a loss, I would think, and maybe are a
- 13:05little less eager to sell and take profits.
- 13:08Is that fair to say? Yeah, but I also think what
- 13:10you're starting to listen, Bitcoin's been in a bull market
- 13:12for 15 years now. The highs have always been
- 13:15higher. The lows have always.
- 13:16Been higher but it's been in a bull market but you've seen
- 13:19these dramatic, you know jumps and falls from all time high
- 13:23that's. But.
- 13:24Yes, of course. Of course.
- 13:25I'm not trying to gaslight show, but bear with me for a second
- 13:27because the highs are always higher and the lows are always
- 13:30higher. How else would you expect a new
- 13:32form of money to really be adopted You want to be a
- 13:34straight line. I mean come on what is this
- 13:35Cartoon Network. So the reality Kate, that I
- 13:37think is that holders of Bitcoin are starting to realize that
- 13:39it's the most performant money. It's always the most performant
- 13:41thing in their portfolio. So as Bitcoin gets distributed
- 13:43and recycled through holders and holders and holders the people
- 13:46that are now holding it as this asset matures are never getting
- 13:48rid of it. Because, Kate, if as long as I
- 13:50have my house, I have my car, I paid off my college tuition, I
- 13:53paid off my credit card, exchange it and sell it for
- 13:55what? For what?
- 13:57It's the it's the hardest money, it's the scarcest asset, it's
- 13:59the most performing thing in everyone's portfolio time and
- 14:01time and time again. So I think it's going to be very
- 14:03difficult for Wall Street to pry it out of the hands of people
- 14:06like me. They're going to have to bid the
- 14:07thing way up there because there's none left.
- 14:09Well, Wall Street does seem to be getting in on.
- 14:11All right guys, go watch the whole clip.
- 14:13It's a great clip. Jack Mahler's Jack Baller's out
- 14:16there. Just, I absolutely love when he
- 14:19goes on corporate press because he just reframes the whole
- 14:21conversation instead of being reactive.
- 14:23He's just always on the offense and just like blowing their
- 14:26minds and he even kind of trolled.
- 14:28He's all like, yeah, you know, I'm not trying to gaslight you,
- 14:31but Bitcoin's been in a bull run since its inception of 15 years.
- 14:34And it's something I say here all the time on on simply
- 14:37Bitcoin and anyone that I talk to, it's like once you get on
- 14:40the Bitcoin standard, once you start saving in Bitcoin and you
- 14:43really understand what you're holding, AKA you know, 21
- 14:46million hard cap, you're holding a percentage of a digital scarce
- 14:50asset, something you can't create more of.
- 14:52What's the alternative? You're going to go back to
- 14:54infinite paper printing? Like no, there there is, there's
- 14:57a one way route here. When you are a bitcoiner and it
- 15:00is Bitcoin, you're never going to go back to the Fiat life raft
- 15:03and it's just so simple. Everything else you can make
- 15:06more of, but they can't make more Bitcoin.
- 15:08And This is why we're seeing the price go up.
- 15:10So as much as we are going to cover all of these different
- 15:13receipts and these different data points of what's actually,
- 15:16you know, making the price of Bitcoin go up, if you just keep
- 15:19it very simple guys, there is more demand for a hard capped,
- 15:24limited supply of Bitcoin and This is why the price has to go
- 15:28up. They have to incentivize you to
- 15:30sell your Bitcoin. And of course, hey, once you're
- 15:33a bitcoiner, you don't go back to the Fiat world.
- 15:35So they're gonna have to they're gonna have to pump this price up
- 15:38real high for us to sell our Bitcoin for more paper money.
- 15:43We're we're, we're in this for the long run.
- 15:45We're we're in for the huddle for, you know, as we say,
- 15:48generational wealth. We're we're doing this to
- 15:51literally change the trajectory of our ancestors in our
- 15:54bloodlines. Like we are in this for the long
- 15:57run and we want to exchange our Bitcoin for, for things
- 16:01directly. We don't want to sell this for
- 16:02Bitcoin. We want to participate in the
- 16:04circular economy and it's happening in real time.
- 16:07And guys indicated we're right. And now the whole world and all
- 16:12of the collectivist press out there is going to have to wrap
- 16:15their brains around why Bitcoin is pumping.
- 16:18It's going to be so beautiful to see their minds explode in the
- 16:21next 18 months. And man, it's such a beautiful
- 16:24time to be a Bitcoin. Anyways, TK, what's your
- 16:26thoughts on this Jack Ballers clip?
- 16:30I've actually been tuned into Jack's recent pods because he's
- 16:33actually revived his podcast again, and it's actually been
- 16:36pretty good. It's been pretty good,
- 16:37especially the ones with his dad.
- 16:38His dad's a pretty fucking base bitcoiner and they have a good
- 16:41way of putting into frame the halving coming up of how it's
- 16:47like because it's a commodity that it can actually be seen in
- 16:52a light of. Not necessarily.
- 16:53I can't remember exactly how he framed it, but just go listen to
- 16:56the episode. It's really good.
- 16:57He he he's got a way of articulating exactly what it is.
- 17:00But I mean, Jack, he's just, he's he's legit.
- 17:03I mean even his get on 0, like just live on credit cards and
- 17:07just sell your Bitcoin once a month to cover your rent and pay
- 17:11off your credit card bill and like that's like the perfect way
- 17:130 exposure to dollars. I'm like legitimately getting to
- 17:16the point now where I'm like, you know what, that sounds like
- 17:18a good idea. Maybe I should start doing that.
- 17:19Because if you think about it, you break it down, you're
- 17:22getting paid to Bitcoin fully, you're holding more Bitcoin for
- 17:25longer periods of time, therefore you're getting more
- 17:27exposure to the price appreciation of Bitcoin.
- 17:29And why would you want to be short Bitcoin holding dollars?
- 17:32Fuck that. Fiat dies.
- 17:34Yeah, you know, unironically got myself on 0 Fiat and it's the
- 17:39best decision I ever made. It's like, all right, you know,
- 17:41the bear market was kind of rough, but hey, now it feels
- 17:44pretty good. It feels pretty great.
- 17:46And then also breaking, breaking, breaking shouts out to
- 17:51hard Hoddle. Apparently Coinbase circuit
- 17:54Breakers hit again, which means the demand is bad.
- 17:58Guys, we are pumping so hard. Every time Coinbase goes down
- 18:01you know that the circuit Breakers were hit and the the
- 18:05the demand is outpacing the supply.
- 18:07Exactly what Jack Maulers was just saying.
- 18:09So guys, hopefully first you're not using Coinbase, but second
- 18:13you don't have any coins on an exchange.
- 18:16So hey, just bull market things guys.
- 18:19It's just bull market things. Anyways, Jose, what's your
- 18:21thoughts on all this? Man, I just love, I love Jack
- 18:24saying that. It's like we've been on a on a
- 18:27fucking bull run for the last 15 years and he's low key, right?
- 18:30If you look at the graph right, and then you know, there's
- 18:33there's nothing that signals to me that we're in a bull market.
- 18:36Then when my wife asks me like, hey, how much Bitcoin do we
- 18:39have, right? It's like.
- 18:41You know, it's just those two things.
- 18:43It's awesome, man. Man, yeah, the the best
- 18:46indicator is when your friends and family start asking you
- 18:49about Bitcoin and you're like, OK, we're we're in the bull
- 18:52market. But as everyone's saying in the
- 18:54chat, the best, the real bull run indicator is when Coinbase
- 18:57goes down. Guys, they're, man, they're
- 19:01they're killing it just so good out there.
- 19:02Shouts out the Coinbase. You know, they're they're really
- 19:04doing the work for us. It's like when you have these
- 19:07indicators like, oh, there's circuit Breakers hit all right.
- 19:09There's way too much demand out there.
- 19:11Love to see it. Beautiful, beautiful.
- 19:13All right, guys, let's get into the news because I I got a bunch
- 19:15of stuff for you guys. The Daily News.

- 20:17more. All right, guys, hit the QR
- 20:20code. Don't think about taking your
- 20:22Bitcoin off in exchange. I just talked about Coinbase
- 20:24taking off exchanges today. Make sure you're securing your
- 20:27Bitcoin. And man, it's it's going crazy.
- 20:30Everyone in the chat's like, yeah, are we going to break all
- 20:32time high today? I don't know, but it looks like
- 20:34we're going to at least kiss all time high this week.
- 20:37Will we have it by today? Who knows.
- 20:39But man, you need to take your Bitcoin into custody.
- 20:41Things are getting and frothy out there in Bitcoin Priceland.
- 20:44It's absolutely incredible. All right.
- 20:46So first news story I want to cover.
- 20:49I'm. I'm going to just string
- 20:50together all these new stories and and TK and Jose, you guys
- 20:53can just pick and choose what you want to hit on.
- 20:55I'm just going to run through it because there's a lot to talk
- 20:57about here. So last week we covered the fact
- 21:00that the EIA had what they say what this temporarily suspended
- 21:06their mining Bitcoin mining survey, emergency energy survey.
- 21:11And so I just brought US Energy Data Agency to temporarily
- 21:15suspend Bitcoin Miner Survey after lawsuit.
- 21:17Well, update on that over the weekend.
- 21:20Chess at the Piero, Shard over at Riot.
- 21:22Blockchain the riots. Just the forefront of this with
- 21:26the Texas Blockchain Council and they fully destroyed the survey
- 21:32breaking the Biden administration or the what?
- 21:36The Energy Information Administration is canceling the
- 21:39fake Bitcoin mining emergency declaration and destroying the
- 21:43data that it illegally collected.
- 21:45The government is going to restart the process the legal
- 21:47way, with public notice and comment.
- 21:50And the government is also paying attorney fees for Bitcoin
- 21:53miners. So let's just look into the
- 21:54screenshot. We'll just read the first
- 21:55paragraph so the parties agree as followed.
- 21:58Defendants agree that the EIA will destroy any information
- 22:01that it has already received in response to the Emergency
- 22:04Survey. The E i.e.
- 22:06IA receives additional If they receive additional information,
- 22:10they will destroy the data the EIA will sequester and keep
- 22:13confidential any information it has received or will receive in
- 22:16response to the EIA Emergency Survey.
- 22:20So just a quick update on that. We won, guys.
- 22:23We won that battle. Obviously, they're not gonna go
- 22:26away. I'm sure they're gonna rebrand
- 22:28this and they're gonna try to come back and continue to docks,
- 22:30miners and docks where you're getting your electricity
- 22:33production. But a win is a win, guys, a win
- 22:36is a win. And shouts out the Riot
- 22:38blockchain and the Texas Blockchain Council for suing
- 22:41them and getting this nuke before it does more damage than
- 22:45it does. And on that point we also saw
- 22:48this weekend that Australia's biggest bank, the Commonwealth
- 22:51Bank is limiting monthly Bitcoin purchases.
- 22:54So I'm going to go over a lot of currencies right now, a lot of
- 22:57Fiat currencies and and last week remember I brought up a a
- 23:01tweet by Balaji, I have it here again that Bitcoin hit all time
- 23:04high in 30 plus Fiat currencies. Well we're hitting all time high
- 23:08in some of the biggest currencies in the world right
- 23:11now and we're almost looking to hit all time high in Bitcoin and
- 23:14U.S. dollars today. So we have a screenshot here
- 23:17from Commonwealth Bank and it goes.
- 23:18Your recent payment to a cryptocurrency exchange has been
- 23:21declined because, quote, you have exceeded the monthly
- 23:24cryptocurrency limit. Commonwealth Bank has introduced
- 23:27these limits to help protect you from frauds and scammers.
- 23:30That's right, we're protecting you from getting your money out
- 23:33of the Fiat system, and the payment limit applies across all
- 23:36of your accounts for the calendar month and resets each
- 23:39month. So maybe if you're in Australia
- 23:41you want to open up another bank account, or maybe you just get
- 23:44completely out of the banks and you just hold Bitcoin because it
- 23:47looks like, you know, Bitcoin hitting all time high in
- 23:51Australian dollars and they're limiting you from escaping the
- 23:55sinking ship that is the Australian dollar.
- 23:58It's the Great Barrier Reef Peso Barrier Reef Peso.
- 24:03Exactly, guys. So, like, again, our job here
- 24:07that's simply Bitcoin, is to constantly hold up a mirror and
- 24:11show the hypocrisy of the traditional financial system, of
- 24:14the politicians, of the corporate press, of all of the
- 24:19influencers out there that are against Bitcoin.
- 24:21They're against freedom and look at this like their currency is
- 24:25collapsing against Bitcoin and what do the banks do?
- 24:27They're like, yeah, sorry, we're going to protect you from frauds
- 24:29and scams and you can't escape the Fiat currency of your choice
- 24:33or of your of your local nation. And you can't go into Bitcoin
- 24:36because guys, we're here to protect you when in reality
- 24:39they're just protecting themselves.
- 24:40We we know the game. And then furthermore, again,
- 24:43just showing you that Bitcoin is hitting all time highs in some
- 24:46of the the longest standing Fiat currencies in the world.
- 24:49It hit all time high in the pound.
- 24:51It hit all time high in the Canadian dollar, hit all times.
- 24:56Yeah, exactly. Moose shackles.
- 24:57It hit all time high in the New Zealand dollars.
- 24:59And of course, like we just noticed, hit all time high in
- 25:01Australian dollars. But remember last week when we
- 25:05played this? You know it hit all time high in
- 25:0730 plus currencies. It looks like Fiat currencies
- 25:11are collapsing in real time against Bitcoin.
- 25:13They are crashing against hard cap scarcity and the world is
- 25:17starting to wake up. This is why Wall Street is
- 25:20looking to Bitcoin. This is why retail is going to
- 25:22wake up to the Bitcoin funnel, because we all have the same
- 25:25problem. Fiat currencies are melting ice
- 25:29cubes. We are all losing purchasing
- 25:30power. What's Jack Mahler say?
- 25:32You know, 8 billion people all have the same problem and the
- 25:35problem is Fiat currency and look for an alternative way to
- 25:38store your value through space and time.
- 25:40This is Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the superior money
- 25:43technology and we're going to constantly not only show the
- 25:46hypocrisy of the corporate Press, of the politicians and
- 25:50the bankers, but we won't just whine about it.
- 25:53There is a solution and it is simply Bitcoin, not just
- 25:56watching simply Bitcoin. It is holding Bitcoin for the
- 25:59long term. Be Bitcoin only.
- 26:01Avoid the shit coin. Make your life easier.
- 26:03Keep it simple, stupid. And on that note, this morning
- 26:06when TK popped in we were just laughing about how many short
- 26:10sellers out there getting absolutely naked.
- 26:13This came out yes or this morning by Watcher Guru.
- 26:16Just in $69 million worth of Bitcoin shorts liquidated in the
- 26:20past 24 hours. We are entering the next leg of
- 26:23of the bull market. Do not short Bitcoin right now,
- 26:26but actually, hey, continue to short Bitcoin because that's
- 26:29just going to make the price pump.
- 26:30So now is the time long Bitcoin. But hey, you know, stupid is
- 26:34what stupid does. And on that note guys, as we're
- 26:37seeing right now in real time, and this is this is old now,
- 26:40Bitcoin market cap hits new all time high.
- 26:42We have the chart here. The last time we were at this
- 26:45high was in 2021, early 2022 and now Bitcoin as we showed this
- 26:50morning is at $1.32 trillion and that goes to my next point here
- 26:55here is Bitcoin top assets by market cap and this hasn't
- 26:59updated yet. So let me update this.
- 27:03All right, look, we're on the heels of silvers market cap
- 27:07mark, silver market cap $1.35 trillion.
- 27:10Bitcoin market cap is at $1.32 trillion.
- 27:14So look, we are literally demonetizing silver in real
- 27:18time. Silver is gonna be in our real
- 27:20view mirror probably by the end of the day, but at least by the
- 27:23end of the week. And when we break all time high,
- 27:25we have officially dethroned silver in the total asset market
- 27:30cap. And it's just goes to show guys
- 27:32all roads lead to Bitcoin and soon enough like I said earlier,
- 27:36you know we're at 10% of the gold market cap and we're coming
- 27:39for gold. But on that note gold also hit
- 27:43an all time high and what's this mean for all of us hard money
- 27:46advocates? Well you know where there's
- 27:48smoke there's fire and shots at the radar hits.
- 27:50I'm pretty sure this is Bitcoin archive as well on on another
- 27:54account And he goes something does not seem right.
- 27:56Friday the White House unprompted says the banking
- 27:59system is quote sound and resilient.
- 28:01On Monday, Bitcoin smashes 67 K and gold and all time highs over
- 28:05$2100. Both assets considered hedges
- 28:09against systemic risk. Is there another banking crisis?
- 28:12I don't know. We don't need to speculate on
- 28:14the doom and gloom of this. All we know is huddle Bitcoin,
- 28:19hold Bitcoin and you're good to go.
- 28:21So man, a lot of stuff covered there, but it feels good.
- 28:25You know Bitcoin market cap all time high or dethroning silver
- 28:30and you guys continue to huddle. We we we're just starting to see
- 28:34the beginning of institutional FOMO.
- 28:36We haven't even seen retail FOMO so it's going to be a crazy
- 28:40crazy 18 months moving forward. And again we saw someone in the
- 28:43chat on Ruston's video say oh all simply Bitcoin does is sell
- 28:47FOMO here. Yes, we are bull tarted
- 28:50bitcoiners and all the signs are pointing towards a marvelous
- 28:54Bitcoin bull run. And hey, look, tell me who
- 28:58doesn't have a bag of Bitcoin and I'll tell you who's fighting
- 29:00Bitcoin. So guys, maybe you should have
- 29:02stacked more Bitcoin and you wouldn't be mad about the FOMO,
- 29:06but again, take your Bitcoin into custody.
- 29:09You know, we we will probably be covering price movements even
- 29:12though we try not to speculate. This is news happening right
- 29:15now. Bitcoin's breaking market cap
- 29:17all time highs. We're seeing gold all time
- 29:20highs. Which means that the hard money
- 29:22gang is getting a little more excited because Fiat currencies
- 29:27are melting in real time and people are looking for an
- 29:29alternative. So it's going to be crazy.
- 29:31It's going to be a crazy crazy 18 months moving into 2025.
- 29:35But anyways, ever entered enough TK?
- 29:37What's your thoughts on this? So I want to go to the
- 29:41Australian Commonwealth nonsense, because at one point
- 29:44they're saying we're going to limit you the amount of money
- 29:47that you can actually spend on Bitcoin through cryptocurrency
- 29:51exchanges, but yet we're going to allow you to have access to
- 29:55buy the Bitcoin ETF on the other end.
- 29:57So they're like speaking out of both sides of their mouth at the
- 29:59same time. It's like, so wait, so wait,
- 30:02it's it's OK if I buy it through you and you custody it for me,
- 30:05but you won't allow me to buy it in custody.
- 30:07So it's like, that doesn't make any sense.
- 30:09And then talking about the all time highs and every other
- 30:11currency. Well, last time we hit all time
- 30:13high, the US dollar and everything else simultaneously
- 30:16hit all time high. Everybody else who's hitting all
- 30:18time highs before the US dollar, just know you got stolen from a
- 30:22whole lot more than everybody else in the US dollar terms
- 30:26faster. So I mean get out of those shit
- 30:29coins, they're worse. You got to remember everything
- 30:31goes to the dollar. Everything is reminiscent of
- 30:34what the dollar is doing. So if the dollar hasn't hit all
- 30:36time highs and you're already hit all time high like last
- 30:39week, you got stolen from that much more this last cycle.
- 30:42Yeah, hold on, hold on. Someone said hit the horns,
- 30:45we're hitting the horns. All right, we got a we got a
- 30:47question in the chat. Someone asked how close is
- 30:50Bitcoin to the gold market cap. Well, the gold market cap went
- 30:54up a little bit. It's close to, well, it's $14.2
- 30:57trillion. You can see the gold price is
- 31:002126 and Bitcoin is at $1.32 trillion.
- 31:05So like I showed earlier today, we're close to 10% of the gold
- 31:10market cap and we're coming for gold.
- 31:13You know we're, we're not happy with just going past, you know,
- 31:17Alphabet and Amazon and Saudi Aramco and NVIDIA and Apple and
- 31:21Microsoft. We're going for gold and then
- 31:23once we surpass gold, we're going for the $900 trillion of
- 31:28total addressable assets. You know if we just get a
- 31:31portion of that like we're going to be good guys, it's going to
- 31:33be great. Anyways, Jose, what's your
- 31:35thoughts on all this? Man, I just like the, like, I
- 31:39like the fact that we that Bitcoin just keeps getting
- 31:41attention because it's so hard to understand, you know what I
- 31:44mean? Like for for a lot of people,
- 31:45it's very hard to understand. So like you can buy a silver
- 31:48coin and watch it it right, Like, oh, it's this price or a
- 31:51gold coin and you're like boom. And then you see the charts.
- 31:54Like dude, Bitcoin is catching up to these, to this, to this
- 31:56physical like value, bro. Like like we we're getting
- 31:59there, man. So it's yeah, I I just love to
- 32:01see that. Yeah, 100%.
- 32:04Like, you know, we always say like, what's the old meme?
- 32:07You know, all press is good press.
- 32:09Well, again, you know, we can always reframe this.
- 32:13And and This is why I think it's really hilarious when people are
- 32:15like, oh, you guys are just bull tards and you guys are just, you
- 32:19know, selling FOMO to people. Guys, it's all good for Bitcoin.
- 32:23Reframe everything into the idea that it's all good for Bitcoin.
- 32:28Whether they're talking bad about Bitcoin, whether they're
- 32:30talking good about Bitcoin, it's all good for for Bitcoin.
- 32:34The only thing we should be worried about is people not
- 32:36talking about Bitcoin like they're talking about Bitcoin.
- 32:39Again, this is, this is the meme of the multiple touch points of
- 32:42Bitcoin where most people need a few touches to Bitcoin.
- 32:48You know, the first time you heard about Bitcoin, you dismiss
- 32:50it. And then, I don't know,
- 32:52depending on the person, maybe you need like five touch points
- 32:54of Bitcoin and then you realize, oh wait, Bitcoin didn't die.
- 32:57I thought it died at, you know, I thought it died in 2022 and
- 33:01wait, now it's breaking all time highs and now inflation's going
- 33:05up. I don't know if you guys saw,
- 33:06but the New York Times did an article this weekend about
- 33:09shrink flation and they're they're doing the same thing,
- 33:12but to reverse. They're trying to reframe shrink
- 33:14flation. That's this is a good thing for
- 33:15you. And we're just like, what is
- 33:18going on? Like your life is getting
- 33:20cheaper on the Bitcoin standard and it's getting more expensive
- 33:24on the Fiat standard. So more people are feeling the
- 33:26pain. And the more they talk about
- 33:28Bitcoin, the more we get Jack Ballards going on CNBC and just
- 33:31thoroughly destroying their narratives.
- 33:33The more we get Elizabeth Warren attacking Bitcoin, the more we
- 33:36get everyone and their mother just saying the word Bitcoin.
- 33:40The more we take over the culture and remember what we say
- 33:43here all the time. The way to win the political war
- 33:47here is by winning the cultural war.
- 33:49This is why we tell you guys to constantly make beautiful
- 33:53Bitcoin art, to have these conversations with your friends
- 33:56and family so they know that, oh wait, these bitcoins aren't
- 33:58crazy people. They're just normal people that
- 34:01are trying to project or not trying to protect their
- 34:05purchasing power. This is all we're doing Here.
- 34:07We see a problem. Instead of just complaining
- 34:10about it on the corporate press or you know, the left, the right
- 34:13paradigm, this is a whole new paradigm.
- 34:16You're a bitcoiner. You protect your money, your you
- 34:19store your value through time and space, and there's nothing
- 34:22these people can do to stop this train.
- 34:23As we see today, price is pumping.
- 34:27You know number go up is the best marketer of Bitcoin.
- 34:29Besides the negative marketing that all of these people do.
- 34:33It's all good for Bitcoin. We're winning so hard.
- 34:35It feels so good. I look, I've been telling you
- 34:37guys for a while, I'm I get bullet hearted and and I'm going
- 34:40to get even more bullet hearted as as this year progresses.
- 34:43You're a professionally paid. I'm a professionally paid
- 34:46bulletard. Let's go.
- 34:49It's just incredible. Like, we're right.
- 34:51You're right. We have the tools to literally
- 34:54change the course of humanity. And this is what it's all about.
- 34:56Guys. Like we live in a world right
- 34:58now that is lacking hope. It's very nihilistic.
- 35:01And This is why bitcoiners get so giddy.
- 35:04This is why we get so excited is because it's like, man, we're
- 35:07right. Bitcoin is hope.
- 35:09Life can get better. It can improve on the Bitcoin
- 35:13standard, and all you really need to do is just save in
- 35:16Bitcoin. Just put some cash in Bitcoin,
- 35:18park it there, hold it for the long term, make sure you're
- 35:21taking it into custody and number go up will fix all of
- 35:25this. It's so beautiful and so simple.
- 35:28All right, guys, I ranted enough.
- 35:30Enough ranting for me. Let's get into the culture so we
- 35:33can talk with Jose about what he's working on.
- 35:35But before we do that, guys, make sure you go get Bitcoin
- 35:38evangelism. It's a great book by our friend
- 35:41Brian de Mint. You can buy it on Amazon or go
- 35:44into Orange Pill App and you can buy it with Bitcoin.
- 35:47We are all Bitcoin evangelists. We need to onboard 8 billion
- 35:51people, but at least a strong, intransigent minority.
- 35:54So, you know, I've been getting texts from my friends.
- 35:57One of my friend, he's like, yo, do I need to buy more?
- 36:00Yes, my other friend texted me. He's like, yo, what about this
- 36:02shit coin? You need to have the the talking
- 36:06points to counter the BS. And that's what Bitcoin
- 36:09evangelism is it. It gives you a pragmatic
- 36:12blueprint of how to spread Bitcoin, because that's all
- 36:16we're doing here. We are all Bitcoin evangelists,
- 36:19whether you want to admit it or not.
- 36:21Anyways, let's get to the culture and talk with Jose.
- 36:26The Daily Culture. Of course, before we do that
- 36:34Kaboom Rack, Kaboom Rack, go to kaboomracks.com.

- 37:35Do you want to start with Viva Bitcoin first or do you want to
- 37:37start with Time Chain Cube? I'll, you know, I'll quickly,
- 37:42I'll quickly go over via Bitcoin, Is that all right?
- 37:43Yeah, yeah, cool. Let's start there.
- 37:45So 'cause I know Andres, Andres, he's working with us via
- 37:49Bitcoin, just helping, you know onboard Latinos, get the
- 37:53onboard, you know, the Latino community together.
- 37:55But more than anything, just focusing on education aspect of
- 37:59it. And basically like I'm on a
- 38:03team, I helped like Co founded, Tony's the founder, he brought
- 38:06me on board, I put the website together.
- 38:08So my background is in, you know web development.
- 38:11So that's that's where I'm helping there and trying to you
- 38:15know work on it as much as possible.
- 38:17But that kind of brings you to like the topic of I remember
- 38:21when we were trying discussing like how how can we onboard
- 38:24people or what's the quickest way to onboard people onto
- 38:28Bitcoin. We I kind of made a guide it's
- 38:30still on the website right now and it's we would have people
- 38:34download wallet of Satoshi which is now a problem here in the
- 38:38United States. So if you guys I still you know
- 38:42still works in other countries which is still fine like Latin
- 38:44you know Latin America and everybody and everywhere in
- 38:46South America. But if if you were starting here
- 38:48like what would you recommend Like like get this, get this
- 38:51wallet, use this wallet, which app would you recommend?
- 38:55Oh actually rhetorical question or not rhetorical question.
- 38:58Well I usually like I'm kind of like a blue wallet maxi.
- 39:02I absolutely love blue wallet. I I've been using it for a long
- 39:05time it's kind of been my daily driver but to try to like get to
- 39:11like a wallet of Satoshi type of like user interface.
- 39:16I I was recommending Phoenix though I'm dressed like yelled
- 39:19at me he's like dude what is this it it's not that easy.
- 39:21It's super easy if you send Bitcoin on chain to Phoenix but
- 39:25it's not as easy as wallet of Satoshi.
- 39:28So I I have been messing with like mutiny shouts out to the
- 39:31team over at Mutiny. I absolutely love Mutiny.
- 39:33And then people still love Breeze, though I I don't really
- 39:37use it on Moon as well. Like I I don't use those ones as
- 39:39much. I have them on my phone and then
- 39:43you know, I I kind of been playing with the Aqua wallet,
- 39:45though I'm still a little iffy about like lightning and liquid
- 39:48you know. But like it just works.
- 39:50It works really well. And I think that's where we're
- 39:53at right now where it's like look not everyone is like as an
- 39:59ardent ideological bitcoiner at us and you just want to give
- 40:02them a wallet that works and look Aqua Aqua just works.
- 40:05So again if we're trying to do like quick payments then I I say
- 40:09Phoenix or Aqua maybe or you know mutiny wallet I love them.
- 40:13But usually if I just tell people to stack I I use green
- 40:17wallet and blue wallet like blue wallet's my daily driver.
- 40:19I've been using blue wallet for years now or at least on my
- 40:22mobile phone and it it just works man.
- 40:25Too bad they took out lightning as well, because that was that
- 40:27was a cool. A cool way of using it, but I
- 40:29don't know TK. What do you recommend?
- 40:31Well, I contribute to Zeus and like.
- 40:34Oh, I love. Zeus I fucking Evan's a fucking
- 40:37beast. But I've also found Blitz not
- 40:40Blitz. Blitz.
- 40:41Blitz is actually created by a guy named Ben Kaufman and it's
- 40:44super beta. Shut up.
- 40:45Ben. Has just barely, has not even
- 40:47been around very long, like the Apple Test flight has been like
- 40:50completely filled up already with like the 100 slots that we
- 40:52have. And he just got back from I
- 40:54think he was like India or something.
- 40:56You just he's just one guy by himself just coding up a brand
- 40:58new wallet because he wanted you know to to create a new lighting
- 41:01wallet. So more I gave you know donated
- 41:03some sass to him too because like why not more lightning
- 41:05wallets better for everybody. So I'm.
- 41:07I also use Aqua because I think it's super cool.
- 41:09I like the the trade-offs that it gives you because like you
- 41:12said, it's no never a silver bullet type of thing.
- 41:14But I've also been using a lot of the E cash stuff.
- 41:16I'm in love with mini Bits. Mini Bits is fucking awesome.
- 41:20It gives you the lightning address.
- 41:21It gives you the ability to withdraw those ads to your
- 41:23actual self custody. Zeus or Breeze.
- 41:25I use both Zeus and Breeze for Lightning.
- 41:28So and then well, now I've got, you know Blitz added to the mix
- 41:30too. So it's good.
- 41:31I like it. I like having the optionality
- 41:32because like maybe you try to send a route through one LSP and
- 41:35it doesn't work so you go to your other wallet and you can
- 41:37use that one and then that would work.
- 41:39So but definitely if you're trying to just get them to like
- 41:42get that you just sent me value and it worked is just get them
- 41:46on cashew get them with the cashew mint because then it
- 41:49instantly it works right away And it's that you know that that
- 41:52aha moment of oh wow you just sent me something super quick,
- 41:54super fast and I didn't have to you know do seed phrase.
- 41:57You didn't have to do any of that nonsense really.
- 42:00Like it's super quick, fast and easy.
- 42:01So I mean, yeah, it does have a straight offs.
- 42:03Make sure you explain the trade-offs.
- 42:04But you know, as a beginner wallet, that could be something
- 42:07you could do like even the primal app itself having.
- 42:09The I was gonna say a. Primal wallet integrated in the
- 42:11app like. Primal.
- 42:12It's kind of cool. It's a so, you know it's a
- 42:15Noster client, but it's got a wallet in there and it's like it
- 42:18kind of kills two birds with one style and you're like like
- 42:20freedom of speech, but also it's got a wallet in there.
- 42:23This is cool. But yeah, I forget who it is.
- 42:25I think it might be Matthew Jay. He he keeps hitting me in the
- 42:28DMS like, bro, you need to try what's it like mini bits or E
- 42:32cash, E cashew or whatever. Yeah, E nuts and.
- 42:36Then there's the mini bit. But I I like the mini bits as
- 42:38well because mini bits I feel like is like the Zeus, like you
- 42:40know Zeus, you can have your LSP node and then you can have your
- 42:43actual node all within the same app.
- 42:45And mini bits kind of works the same way.
- 42:47So you can have multiple cache you mints within the mini bits
- 42:50itself. So you can not just have to rely
- 42:51on just one mint for each app, you can actually have multiple
- 42:55mints within mini bits. That's why I kind of like mini
- 42:57bits more. OK, sweet.
- 42:59All right, one question for you, TK by Elaine, She said.
- 43:02Blixed or Blitz? So blixed is 1 and blitz is
- 43:08another. Blitz is a new one, so I was
- 43:10like horrible mate I I told him we got to find try to figure out
- 43:12another name but he's got like such a cool logo.
- 43:14It's got like AB with like the the bottom part it's like a
- 43:16little lighting bolt. It's super cool looking, but
- 43:18yeah, Blitz Blitz with AZ. OK.
- 43:21All right. One last question, Jose.
- 43:23They won't talk about time chain Cube XX, what's up with Coinbase
- 43:26now circuit Breakers got hit. Bull run confirmed too much
- 43:29demand quote UN quote too much demand for their platform.
- 43:34You know that just it's it's just you know just just timely
- 43:38maintenance, bro. There's just timely maintenance.
- 43:40Now they just got a. Securities called in a.
- 43:42Yeah, Yeah, exactly. Now they just got to figure out
- 43:44their market making in the back end.
- 43:45It's pretty standard, guys. Your coin's still there.
- 43:48All right. Anyways, Jose, let's pivot a
- 43:49little bit. Let's talk about time
- 43:51chaincube.com. What is this?
- 43:56Timechaincube.com oh dope. It's up there.
- 43:58So basically it's just like a little Bitcoin dashboard has the
- 44:03price, the time, block height, you know, just a little project
- 44:07started working on. It's inspired by mempool, you
- 44:11know, mempool space, Biffy, live time chain, calendar, you know,
- 44:17kind of all those projects that give Bitcoin a a heartbeat.
- 44:20You know what I mean? Because you can't sometimes it's
- 44:22hard to understand when you can't see it or, you know, touch
- 44:27it, right. You can't touch it.
- 44:28So I made something that you can kind of touch, right You if you
- 44:31put this up on your phone or your computer, you can, you
- 44:34know, drag it, move it around. So I had to learn how to use
- 44:38that, you know, render that little cube in the browser.
- 44:41I thought it was wasn't going to work, but I spelled like I spent
- 44:45quite a few hours trying to get to see the to learn this thing
- 44:48and put it together because I didn't even know you could put
- 44:50text on the queue like that in the browser.
- 44:53And yeah, man, I was able to pull it off.
- 44:55Still work in progress. But yeah, hopefully if anybody
- 44:58wants to touch a Bitcoin, you can block, right?
- 45:00You can kind of, you know, move around.
- 45:03And then I did add a mem pool queue on the top right.
- 45:06If you click there, it'll give you some mem pool stats as well.
- 45:09And I'm working on something a little bit different too to to
- 45:12give another visualizer. But yeah, that's kind of where
- 45:15I'm at with the project. I like it.
- 45:17You can like spin it like. Roll the dice.
- 45:19Roll the dice. Well, I I hit you in the DMS
- 45:22when you when you mentioned this to me.
- 45:24Look guys, I absolutely love like colored neon lights in my
- 45:28house. So dude, I need a physical one
- 45:30of these that sits on my desk, you know, about 12 inches big.
- 45:35So I know you're figuring out how to program this, but yeah,
- 45:38you got to figure out how we make this into an actual
- 45:41physical thing that sits on our yes bro, that would be epic.
- 45:44I know a guy's name's torture. He does a lot of tinkering with
- 45:47this kind of stuff. Torture does cool shit, and I
- 45:49think if we could get crypto cloaks with maybe some like
- 45:53translucent filament, we could probably create the the actual
- 45:57can casing to put the hardware in to make it actually happen.
- 46:00And then make sure we have neon lights in it so it actually
- 46:02projects lights so we can set this on our desk.
- 46:07That would be so epic. Yeah, yeah, definitely,
- 46:10definitely. A physical cue would be dope.
- 46:13I know torture does a lot of this stuff, dude.
- 46:15So he's got. I got to reach out to him and
- 46:17see if he's got any ideas. And like, literally when I
- 46:20uploaded this on Twitter for the first time, a lot of people were
- 46:22sending me those physical. Oh dude, like this would be so
- 46:25cool and physical. So it's like when you mentioned
- 46:27it, I was like, dude, did you like probably the 4th, 5th
- 46:29person that has mentioned it, dude, So that it would be dope
- 46:32all. Right, like, let me let me try
- 46:34to get this on Amazon real quick.
- 46:35Let me see if I can pull it up. They have these like, light
- 46:39cubes, bro. All right, check it.
- 46:40Let's see if I can. Here we go.
- 46:42Oh. I think I know.
- 46:43And think I know, dude. Look, this is literally what we
- 46:46need. We need one of these but with
- 46:50but with the the stats. On it.
- 46:54Don't look at this other information here.
- 46:57We just want this. Like guys, let's make this
- 47:00happen where it literally sits on your desk and it lights up
- 47:04and it gives you all the stats. That would be so absolutely epic
- 47:07but I guess that's that's for the next time so we're we're
- 47:11dude Shark Tank live on simply bit card let's make this happen
- 47:14but man this is super cool. Is there anything, are you are
- 47:18you going to like expand on this or like what's the end goal with
- 47:21this? So I have The next part of it in
- 47:25mind is I want to basically create like a, a like you know
- 47:31how have a manpool queue as well.
- 47:33But like there's would be another button that'll basically
- 47:35show you like the actual like blocks like in a in a block like
- 47:39the amount of transactions, I mean being represented by blocks
- 47:43inside of a like in a box shape. So that's the next thing that
- 47:47I'm adding to it. So it's just kind of, you know,
- 47:50As for educational purposes because like I said, I think
- 47:53that's one of the most important parts and a lot of people still
- 47:55grasping, you know, trying to grasp the whole concept.
- 47:58But yeah, I mean, dude, like, there's all these things, tools
- 48:01that we can use to to help people understand and, you know,
- 48:05grasp that concept that this is really going on, like somewhere,
- 48:08right? On on people's nodes and on the
- 48:11actual blockchain, so. We need to I need this as like
- 48:15an app on my phone or something 'cause like I have like I forget
- 48:18who this one is. I don't, I don't remember this
- 48:21app, but you guys can see like let me let me show this full
- 48:25screen. I have like the block height on
- 48:29my on my home screen. If you can make.
- 48:32I don't know if you could even turn a widget around like that,
- 48:36but that'd be cool. Well, what it what I did, how I
- 48:39did program it is it is a it is a progressive web app.
- 48:43So if you pull it up on Safari, I know Apple's trying to get rid
- 48:46of this thing but like like progressive web apps.
- 48:48But if you if you try to save it as a bookmark, you could save it
- 48:53onto your home screen. So it'll be like a like a like a
- 48:56it took a natural app on your phone so you can just always go
- 48:58back to it and it'll take over the whole screen.
- 49:02But yeah, well wait, it would be dope.
- 49:04Yeah, that'd be awesome. That'd be absolutely awesome.
- 49:06Hey guys, this. Is I remember the the PWA ban
- 49:09was only for EUI think if I believe correctly it was only
- 49:12for EU that's. Correct.
- 49:13That's correct. Right now it's currently EU and
- 49:15no doubt in my mind that it's going to come over here too, so.
- 49:20Yeah and guys, it's just a website. timechaincube.com just
- 49:23a way to visualize statistics of the of the Bitcoin network, of
- 49:27the mempools. But someone says you guys would
- 49:30literally waste your money on something like this in the
- 49:32physical form. Yes, I would absolutely spend my
- 49:35money on this if it literally projected colored light into my
- 49:38room. I absolutely love colored
- 49:40lights. I, you know, I love LEDs.
- 49:42I love neon lights. If I could have this in my
- 49:45living room and it projected an orange color, an orange glow in
- 49:49in my room, I would definitely buy one that yeah I am that kind
- 49:54of person. Anyways.
- 49:55Anyways, I got to respond to the chat sometimes.
- 49:57Like man. If you're not buying Bitcoin
- 50:01trading cards, what are you doing with your life, man?
- 50:03Come on, you guys like that. The meme factory, Like the meme
- 50:06factory? Meme factory doesn't exist.
- 50:08I think put it, put it, put the cards in front of you and and
- 50:11they'll they'll show better, Yeah, there you go.
- 50:15See if we can get it close enough to see the main factory
- 50:18up there. I disappeared.
- 50:18Oh, he's gone. Yes, yes, exactly.
- 50:24Cosplay is a billion dollar industry, and it does nothing
- 50:27for me either. You know, there's there's things
- 50:29that we do just 'cause they're cool and they're fun.
- 50:32I don't know, I like neon lights in my room.
- 50:34I I like them way, way better than bright LED lights that are
- 50:38white that make me feel like I'm in a a lab rat, you know, in my
- 50:42own apartment. You know, it's all about the
- 50:43vibe anyways, Jose, anything else you want to plug before we
- 50:48roll this one out? Dude, what?
- 50:49What are you guys working on at Viva?
- 50:50Bitcoin. What's the next website?
- 50:51What's going on over here? Yeah, man.
- 50:54I mean, we're still building. I mean, I'm on the development
- 50:57side of things. So like just filling up the
- 50:59resources of anybody, hey, if anybody wants to send resources
- 51:04or, you know, has a better idea of how to orange peel Latinos,
- 51:08like send them this way, why not?
- 51:10I'm still like, you know, learning.
- 51:12I'm still learning how to code every single day.
- 51:13So that's kind of like I'm bringing those two things, those
- 51:17things together. So that's where we're at with
- 51:19this. Ty, Ty, actually, I'd, I'd like
- 51:21to ask you one question because we get this question a lot and I
- 51:26and I see this, this, this theme and this trend a lot.
- 51:30And people that watch our show and even Bitcoiners in in
- 51:32general, it's like, well, look, I'm not a developer, I'm not a
- 51:36miner. Like how can I participate in
- 51:38the Bitcoin network? And you're just like, bro, I
- 51:40don't know, just take a crash course on on doing some coding
- 51:44and the next thing you know, you're just creating cool stuff
- 51:48that you want to create. So would that be your journey or
- 51:51did you code before you got into Bitcoin, you were a coder and
- 51:53then you're like, I want to work on Bitcoin?
- 51:56So yeah, actually, I learned how to code like in 2019, and that
- 52:02was like right before the pandemic hit.
- 52:03And I mean fuck, bro, like, you know, I'm trying.
- 52:06I'm trying to build a career out of this, right?
- 52:08Fucking pandemic hits and everything goes as shit.
- 52:11But I was very unmotivated and you know, Bitcoin, the whole you
- 52:16started pumping and all this stuff.
- 52:17So I'm like, dude, what can I do with this?
- 52:19So I mean, for me that was enough motivation for me to to
- 52:23like, go and learn how to build stuff.
- 52:25I mean it's pretty once you get the hang of it, like if you
- 52:28want, if you're passionate about wanting to make something,
- 52:31because to me it's like, all right, you're creating it.
- 52:33You can make your own Bitcoin thing or like a even like if
- 52:36it's a page just show people show Bitcoin or teach people
- 52:40about Bitcoin, educate them. I mean, why not, right?
- 52:42Like, it doesn't have to be a wallet.
- 52:44I don't know how to make a wallet.
- 52:45I'm pretty sure if I spent the time and I was passing about
- 52:47making a wallet, I will get there.
- 52:49But I mean I don't even know how to make a wallet.
- 52:50So it's like it's all depends, right?
- 52:52Does that does that make sense that I answer that question?
- 52:54Yeah, yeah, definitely dude. And and something I say all the
- 52:56time, guys like, look, you have particular skills.
- 53:01You, I mean, look, if you're alive today and you have a job,
- 53:05then you have some kind of skills that I'm sure you can
- 53:09transport into Bitcoin. We don't all have to be coders.
- 53:12You don't all have to be Bitcoin miners.
- 53:14But hey, if you are called to do that, you can do that.
- 53:18Like even TK, you know, TK creates Bitcoin content as well.
- 53:22It's not like you just do what you want to do and that's the.
- 53:25Beauty of Bitcoin. That's what I do.
- 53:27I just make memes and I host spaces Monday through Friday
- 53:3010:00 Pacific Time, Monday through Friday.
- 53:34It's the orange sun, so follow the orange sun spaces on
- 53:38Twitter. Join us.
- 53:39We actually host that space as the earliest Bitcoin morning
- 53:42show because to my knowledge there isn't a show in Russia or
- 53:46Japan or anything like that. So we're the 1st morning show
- 53:49for specific European, African time zone and Australian 'cause
- 53:53that's like evening time for Australia.
- 53:55So they always tuned in from dinner time.
- 53:57And then I have my own podcast, Axioms of Liberty, that I just
- 54:01basically do like what a Bitcoin, what a guy Swan did for
- 54:05Bitcoin. I just read libertarian
- 54:06articles. Right now I'm covering
- 54:08intellectual property and why intellectual property is a scam.
- 54:11So if you think that intellectual property isn't a
- 54:13scam, please give the show a listen.
- 54:15Let the last two episodes. I've got about 53 episodes so
- 54:18far, and I read everything from Lynn Sandard Spooner to Murray
- 54:21Rothbard to Mises to Walter Block.
- 54:25Like you name it, I'm I'm. I'm reading it because I'm
- 54:28interested in the topic. And it's something that I feel
- 54:30like is very important, that we all get more educated in the
- 54:33libertarian philosophy and just the philosophy about life in
- 54:35general, 'cause I don't discover that stuff.
- 54:36There's other stuff that I find that I think is like real
- 54:39interesting. So anything I find like that
- 54:42that's like I feel like pertains.
- 54:43Like we just did an episode recently on like free will.
- 54:46So I read an article about if does free will exist.
- 54:49And so it kind of went down the rabbit holes of like the entire
- 54:51philosophy of you know, what entails free will and this and
- 54:54that and the other. So like, I I mean it's just more
- 54:56of a personal journey for myself.
- 54:57And I just hope you guys, if you guys like it, you guys find
- 55:00value in it, you know, listen. Let's go.
- 55:03Awesome. Awesome.
- 55:05All right, guys. Well, thanks for coming on.
