- 0:00One of the biggest warning signs for the next big print just
- 0:03happened while they're distracting you with emails,
- 0:05islands, aliens, and the Dow being at 50K.
- 0:08Something just happened behind the scenes that affects
- 0:10everybody in America, $900 billion were just stripped away
- 0:14from the US government. And GDP numbers just signaled
- 0:16that the economy is in real trouble.
- 0:18And you know what this means. The money printer is about to go
- 0:21burn. Bit Corners have already
- 0:23predicted what's happening now and what's happening next.
- 0:26In today's episode, we're going to break down this important
- 0:28news and why Bit corners you might look like punch right now
- 0:31are about to explode into a whole different monster when the
- 0:34US government turns on the money printer.
- 0:36Are you ready? This is Dante Cook with Bitcoin.
- 0:38Simply, let's go. $900 billion in tariffs, unless the Supreme
- 0:49Court said you can't do it, Can you believe it?
- 0:51Can you? Believe it.
- 0:53Well, yeah, yeah, we can believe it. the US Supreme Court did, in
- 0:57fact, just say that Donald Trump's tariffs were illegal.
- 1:01This has been a massive blow to the Trump administration, who's
- 1:04been reducing deficits for the first time since the Clinton
- 1:06administration, mainly thanks to tariffs. the US Supreme Court
- 1:10ruled six to three saying that Donald Trump's tariffs and the
- 1:13use of the IEEPA tariff mandate was illegal.
- 1:17When, Ashley, last year, how this would impact his campaign
- 1:20and his economic proposals? Well, he said that if the
- 1:23Supreme Court ruled this way, it would be devastating to America.
- 1:26What happens? To your economic plan at the
- 1:29Supreme. Court.
- 1:30Invalidates your tariffs. I think our country will be
- 1:33immeasurably hurt. I think our economy will go to
- 1:38hell. Look, because of tariffs, we
- 1:40have the highest stock market we've ever had.
- 1:42Because of tariffs, 401 KS at the highest level that and this
- 1:45is millions and millions of people that we've ever had, 401
- 1:48KS. I think it's the most important
- 1:52subject discussed by the Supreme Court in 100.
- 1:55Years. The most important discussion
- 1:56that the United States Supreme Court is having in 100 years is
- 1:59a big deal. Here's how big of a deal this
- 2:01is. The i.e.
- 2:02EPA tariff revenue that the United States government
- 2:05collected was over 50% of all of the revenue that they got from
- 2:08tariffs. This means that over $135
- 2:10billion will need to be returned to importer.
- 2:12And the problem isn't just the ruling.
- 2:15This is a logistical nightmare. Justices Thomas and Alito says
- 2:18this the court's decision is likely to generate serious
- 2:21practical consequences in the near term. 1 issue is the
- 2:24refunds. Refunds of billions of dollars
- 2:27would have significant consequences for the US
- 2:29Treasury. But the court today says nothing
- 2:31about whether, and if so, how, the government should go about
- 2:34returning the billions of dollars it's collected from
- 2:36importers. That process is likely to be a
- 2:39mess, as was acknowledged at oral arguments.
- 2:42And to make matters worse, GDP came in at just 1.4% when it was
- 2:47expected to come in at 3%. This is the second worst print
- 2:50in two years. This is a clear sign that the
- 2:52United States economy is struggling.
- 2:54But here's what makes this even worse.
- 2:55The PCE price index in the core PCE numbers came in higher than
- 3:00expected. So this means that the cost of
- 3:01goods and services are also going up while GDP is
- 3:04struggling. And to make matters worse, US
- 3:07hiring is at recession levels right now.
- 3:09Couple this with AI disruption and we have a cocktail for a
- 3:12disaster for the Fed to sip on. So what does this mean in a
- 3:15nutshell, the US government is going to have to print.
- 3:18Let me explain what I mean. Foreign countries are not buying
- 3:21U.S. Treasuries.
- 3:22The stable coin bill is gridlocked in Congress, meaning
- 3:25they can't use stable coins as a lever to raise an issue more
- 3:27debt. The economy is slowing,
- 3:29inflation is picking up, and the United States government just
- 3:32lost one of its highest forms and newest sources of revenue.
- 3:35So what's the option? What's the alternative that the
- 3:38Treasury and the Fed have? If they can't raise money, they
- 3:41can't collect it from other countries and taxing U.S.
- 3:44citizens is not a viable strategy.
- 3:46Well, the only option and means is to print money. the United
- 3:50States government is effectively a zombie company.
- 3:52Listen to how James Lavish explains this.
- 3:54If the United States was a company on the floor of the New
- 3:58York Stock Exchange, we would call the Zombie company.
- 4:01And the reason for that is that they have to borrow, they have
- 4:05to, they have to issue debt and they have to borrow money just
- 4:07to pay interest on the old debt. It's basically dead man walking.
- 4:11And that's the situation we're in in America.
- 4:14And so all of that gets to the whole point, which is the only
- 4:18way that they can deal with this debt is to allow for high
- 4:24perpetual structural inflation. And that will cause GDP to go
- 4:29up. Nominally that'll create more
- 4:31dollars in the economy, but those dollars would be worth
- 4:34less to consumers. However, they'll help pay down
- 4:38the old debt that is based in those old dollars.
- 4:42And so you have these new dollars that are worth less.
- 4:44There's a whole lot more of them.
- 4:46They print money. They, they, they just create
- 4:49liquidity. They expand the the balance
- 4:54sheet of the Fed by printing money with the Treasury, and
- 4:57they use those dollars to create more GDP nominally and pay down
- 5:02the debt. And we all know that the main
- 5:06driver of inflation is basically the expansion of the money
- 5:10supply. And that is how we come to
- 5:13Bitcoin and why we think it is so important in an investor's
- 5:17playbook in the future. Here's another great clip from
- 5:21Sapien who explains the same thing in different language.
- 5:24Basically nothing stops this strain, as Len Alden always
- 5:28says, and not even Tether. Tether cannot fix what a century
- 5:33of Fiat democracy ruined. There's been a century of
- 5:35inflation, a century of debt, a century of liabilities piled up.
- 5:39And you're not just going to find an enormous number of bag
- 5:43holders that are going to be able to buy this.
- 5:46Ultimately, I think another point that is often ignored here
- 5:50is that a lot of the new demand, a lot of the demand that is
- 5:53coming for Tether is displaced demand.
- 5:56A lot of it is coming from people who are giving up on
- 5:59financial instruments that would have demanded treasuries
- 6:03otherwise. In other words, when when a
- 6:06currency collapses and people in that country start using Tether,
- 6:10they're decreasing the demand for treasuries by the central
- 6:14Bank of the government whose currency has collapsed.
- 6:17So it's not entirely new demand. And even if it were entirely new
- 6:21demand, even if we assume that 80% of it as we did in the
- 6:23previous example, we still see that the impact on the debt
- 6:28situation in the US is not likely to be significant.
- 6:31It's not likely to make a significant difference because
- 6:34the amount of budget deficit is enormous and it's continuing to
- 6:38grow and the depth and the interest are continuing to grow.
- 6:41And it won't touch the entitlements, it won't touch the
- 6:44defence spending. And so therefore all of this new
- 6:47extra demand is not really going to make a big difference.
- 6:51It's ultimately no way to escape the inevitable fate of default
- 6:57devaluation or default by devaluation.
- 7:00The United States government is backed into the inevitable
- 7:03corner that bit corners have always talked about, and This is
- 7:06why we don't sell our Bitcoin. This is why we've worked with
- 7:09Lenin, the leader in Bitcoin backed loans and oh by the way,
- 7:12Lenin is the first Bitcoin backed instrument to be rated by
- 7:15the S&P, the largest global credit rating agency.
- 7:19Lenin has spent eight years perfecting their service and
- 7:22that's why our global credit rating agency will back that
- 7:25their bonds are legit. This was an institutional credit
- 7:28review that reflects the robustness of their structure in
- 7:31their platform, which is why we work with them.
- 7:33You can borrow up the 50% loan to value to your Bitcoin without
- 7:36selling your Bitcoin. Fiat comes into your account in
- 7:38less than six hours and the application takes just two
- 7:41minutes. They're bringing investment
- 7:43grade solutions and backing to the Bitcoin industry and to your
- 7:47Bitcoin stack. Don't sell your Bitcoin.

- 7:58One of the ways you can continue to be sovereign in your journey
- 8:01is by removing your Bitcoin from an exchange and becoming your
- 8:03own bank. It's hard to invest in these
- 8:05sorts of things at first because you don't really need it all the
- 8:08time until you really do. Work with a coach to understand
- 8:11exactly how to set up a node, how to have your private keys,
- 8:13how to remove it from exchanges, and how to be fully sovereign
- 8:16because there is going to come a time when you're going to need
- 8:18it and you're going to want to have the resources and
- 8:20capability to do it. Schedule a free 30 minute
- 8:22meeting with the team at the bitcoinway.com slash to get
- 8:26started. One of the biggest
- 8:27disappointments that anyone who's had in Bitcoin, especially
- 8:30since coming in at 2021 because that's when we made an all time
- 8:33high 69,420 if those people there remember.
- 8:37And since then we've been flat ups and downs hitting a new all
- 8:41time high of 126 K. But largely people have missed
- 8:44the whole lore of Bitcoin running up 10XA100X.
- 8:48And yet this might have to do somewhat right now with there
- 8:51being price suppression coming from the big ETF players.
- 8:54Listen to what the CEO, a Bitcoin IRA, had to say with a
- 8:57conversation on Natalie Brunel about this sort of thing
- 9:00happening. Do you think that there's been
- 9:02some price suppression? I can't avoid that sort of
- 9:05question online right now, especially from the Bitcoin
- 9:09community on X. They think that there's some
- 9:11sort of manipulation to the downside, which is kind of
- 9:14ironic, right? They never claim it on when
- 9:15we're when we're flying high to a new all time high.
- 9:18They're not, it's not being manipulated up, but there's this
- 9:20real sense that because the financial institutions are in,
- 9:24because there's this like new layer of sort of the suits or
- 9:27Wall Street, that it's preventing bitcoins rise due to
- 9:30all these derivatives and layers on top of it.
- 9:32Yeah, I think when you add the ability to short it, right and
- 9:35that that's simply enough the ability to short it to put in
- 9:38orders though tea whopping companionship that they're doing
- 9:41between there's there's a lot of moving parts once you get to
- 9:43that layer. And I'm not a tin hat guy, but
- 9:46let's think about it. If every institution wants to be
- 9:48the next Michael Saylor and every sovereign nation wants to
- 9:51realizes the balance sheet is important, even though they're
- 9:53they talked about it a bunch a year ago at the Bitcoin
- 9:55conference, everybody was talking about it and then all of
- 9:57a sudden they got quiet. Do you would you tell the world
- 9:59you're about to buy $100 million of Bitcoin?
- 10:01I wouldn't because you want to control the price.
- 10:03Now, is there manipulation? Are we talking JV diamond and JP
- 10:07Morgan with the silver shorts that they were doing?
- 10:09I don't know if it's at that level.
- 10:10I think that one of the things I love about Bitcoin is we have
- 10:13the blockchain to tell us the truth.
- 10:15Other than when you look at stocks, you come from the
- 10:17traditional side. That stuff can be manipulated
- 10:19left and right all day, every day.
- 10:21It's interesting. I do think that because of the
- 10:23number of entrants that are coming in that are big players,
- 10:26there may be suppression's probably the right word, not
- 10:28manipulation. There may be some suppression or
- 10:30news that hasn't come out. You know, Sailor calls us and
- 10:33goes, hey, guess what? I just bought another
- 10:35$775,000,000 worth of Bitcoin yesterday.
- 10:37Not a lot of other people are saying that yet.
- 10:39And they may be averaging their way in and see where their price
- 10:42points can be at because nobody wants to say, hey, we're going
- 10:44to buy $100 million, watch it run to 126,000 and then have to
- 10:48buy at that price. That's just common sense.
- 10:51If that is happening, you have to understand that you can't be
- 10:55shaken out and you have to have a longer term time horizon.
- 10:57For long stretches of time, Bitcoin does nothing.
- 11:00Actually, on a monthly basis, it tends to go down more than it
- 11:03goes up, but in short stretches of time, 9 days, 10 days, 23
- 11:07days, 30 days. If you look at this chart,
- 11:09Bitcoin makes explosive moves to the upside, upside moves that
- 11:12you aren't going to want to miss.
- 11:14Bitcoin is an asset without an issuer.
- 11:16Bitcoin is an asset without centralization.
- 11:19Bitcoin is an asset that makes us all truly Bitcoin is an asset
- 11:23that is going to benefit in a large way when the US Treasury
- 11:26and the US Fed realize that they are a zombie corporation backed
- 11:29into a corner with tariff revenue just being stripped from
- 11:32them from the by the Supreme Court.
- 11:33This is massive news for Bitcoin and you shouldn't underestimate
- 11:36the impact that this is going to have on your Bitcoin stack in
- 11:39your portfolio. One of the ways you can continue
- 11:41to diversify in Bitcoin is not by just buying spot Bitcoin or
- 11:45borrowing against your Bitcoin, but also stacking it through
- 11:48Bitcoin mining. But don't worry about buying
- 11:49machines where you're going to find your Bitcoin Bitcoin.
