Transcript
- 0:04Welcome back everyone. We're simply Bitcoin.
- 0:06We break down the news. The daily fail mean review.
- 0:09Software releases Hardware releases and the plebiscites
- 0:13joining us today friend of Simply Bitcoin fellow Bitcoin
- 0:18ER, and the Bitcoin propagandist at Treasure.
- 0:22I'm talking about SAS Joseph, my dude, thank you very much for
- 0:25joining us. Hey guys, nice to be here.
- 0:28Very cool, right. You know what?
- 0:30R going, we're diving into the numbers, let's do it.
- 0:32Nico not brought to you by not all they make some of the best
- 0:36Bitcoin nodes like the noddle one run your own version of
- 0:39Bitcoin core. The lightning Network, whirlpool
- 0:41and Dojo all from the comfort of your own home member.
- 0:44Guys, if you don't run your own Bitcoin node you're trusting
- 0:47someone else's. That's a big No-No for privacy.
- 0:50So get yourself a noddle Bitcoin know.
- 0:52Today at the time of this recording, the block height is
- 0:55740 2577. The Bitcoin price 20,000 I've
- 1:00chained rewrite day 783. Total public, lightning
- 1:04capacity, 3940 dot 87, Moscow, time 4825 blocks of the having
- 1:1197,000 423 and the samurai Whirlpool unspent capacity,
- 1:16Samurai Whirlpool is a coin or collaborative spend.
- 1:19It is not a mixing service and the unspent capacity for that
- 1:23pool is 4750. 9.80 9pt, see Nico, we had Some turbulence
- 1:30this morning in the numbers but they are somehow still
- 1:33completely steady. Don't know what that means.
- 1:37Yeah. Bitcoin is a new stable coin at
- 1:3920K. Whoo.
- 1:40Last time I was saying that I totally jinxes anyways, before
- 1:45we get SATs, Joseph's, his thoughts, let's check this out.
- 1:49This was a report that came out from Wells, Fargo Wells, Fargo
- 1:54in investment Institute and it's very freaking bullish.
- 2:00Let's check it out, shall we? So it gets into Bitcoin price
- 2:04history that it goes into we understand the too late to
- 2:07invest argument but we do not subscribe to it.
- 2:10That's right. Wells Fargo is telling you
- 2:12you're not early to bitcoin. I mean you're not late to
- 2:15bitcoin your early keeps on going why we believe it is early
- 2:21but not too early. So you're not too early but
- 2:24you're still early. Let's keep going down that the
- 2:28chart technology as Es curve and it, you know, it puts everything
- 2:33together, right? It has electricity back in the
- 2:36early 1900's, right? And you see that the adoption is
- 2:41parabolic specially, when it's a technology, that changes.
- 2:44Everything you have the cell phone, you have the internet,
- 2:48you have electricity electricity was actually pretty slow radio,
- 2:52right? So these technologies that
- 2:54absolutely change the world, you see most of them have gone
- 2:58parabolic specially and As you approach the more modern era,
- 3:02right? The more the parabola, you know,
- 3:05defines itself. Anyways, let's keep going down
- 3:08internet usage, history versus crypto uses users, right?
- 3:14Check this out internet users. As you can see, we haven't even
- 3:18hit the ramp up yet, right? It's making these comparisons,
- 3:22but the part, this is also really cool Market size of
- 3:26Select assets and trillions. These Bitcoin and shit coin.
- 3:31It's a to largest market cap company in the S&P 500.
- 3:36It's a three gold is 11.5. If Bitcoin just reaches the
- 3:40market cap of gold, that's a five hundred thousand dollar
- 3:42Bitcoin from here, stocks are 119 and bonds are at 123, and my
- 3:48opinion. I think Bitcoin is superior to
- 3:50bonds. But bonds are the, it's the,
- 3:53it's the, it's the, it's the pillar of the financial system
- 3:57and it's a shitty pillar. Anyways, moving on to this part
- 4:03and I want to read the summary and then I'll get you guys a
- 4:05thoughts for today's investors. Trying to figure out if we are
- 4:09early or late to cryptocurrency. Investing looking at technology
- 4:13investing in the mid to late 1990s.
- 4:15Seems reasonable. At that time, the internet hit a
- 4:18hyper adoption phase and never looked back, cryptocurrencies
- 4:22appear to be at a similar stage today.
- 4:24Cryptocurrency investment options today.
- 4:27However, are still maturing and we advise Agents.
- 4:30See that part. I disagree.
- 4:32I think they're looking at shit coins are looking at Bitcoins.
- 4:36I think Bitcoin is this mature baby.
- 4:39It's already the legal tender of three countries Central African
- 4:42Republic El, Salvador and Panama, I know Panama it's not
- 4:46legal tender but to be honest I like the Panama law better than
- 4:50it being legal tender for. Now we suggest a consideration
- 4:53of only professionally. Managed private placements.
- 4:57We do not recommend it. No it doesn't.
- 4:59To be managed, you just got to buy Bitcoin.
- 5:02And forget we do not recommend any of the other current
- 5:06investment options, such as mutual funds ETFs, grantor
- 5:10trust, and individual curto currency speculation.
- 5:14Now here's the thing, they're trying to remain relevant,
- 5:17they're trying to remain relevant, you need us to manage
- 5:21your money, right? Know if Bitcoin, it's simple,
- 5:24you buy Bitcoin, you take it into self.
- 5:26Custody you forgot about it. We are hopeful that Later
- 5:30regulatory Clarity and 2022, brings higher quality investment
- 5:34options. Now the last part is a bit of a
- 5:37sync signal because this is what Michael sailor has been echoing
- 5:42as well, right? Is that more regulatory Clarity
- 5:45will give other companies, other public companies confidence to
- 5:50use Bitcoin as an alternative to Fiat money, right?
- 5:54And sailor is absolutely spot-on and Fiat money. 2% inflation,
- 5:59the goal 2 percent inflation. Isn't that bad?
- 6:02Right? If you're holding 10,000 bucks,
- 6:05right? But if you're holding hundreds
- 6:07of millions of dollars in cash, like, for example, Apple that 2%
- 6:12he's brutal, right? So something like Bitcoin that.
- 6:15Yeah. Perhaps in the short term, the
- 6:17volatility on a yearly basis sucks.
- 6:20But we know that if you zoom out and also due to the having right
- 6:25Bitcoin is literally programmed, To go up in value, right?
- 6:29So in my opinion it's actually Superior to Fiat specially if
- 6:32you zoom out, right. But the part that I find,
- 6:35absolutely hilarious is like don't individually speculate on
- 6:39these assets. Let us the money managers do.
- 6:43And here's the thing in the traditional Financial system and
- 6:46the traditional Fiat world where everyone's trying to chase yield
- 6:49and stuff. Yeah, you could totally make an
- 6:53argument that you need a full-time person, you know,
- 6:56Investing For You. You but it Bitcoins very easy,
- 6:59you buy it, you take Bitcoin into cold storage and you forget
- 7:03and this goes to something that I forget whether he we've
- 7:07brought it up many times on the show, Parker Lewis wrote an
- 7:10article, it was actually Matt with the article, the, the
- 7:13episode that mad Odell came, right.
- 7:15Something called did D financialization, because
- 7:18essentially, the reason that the financial companies are so big,
- 7:23right? Is that because of inflation,
- 7:25right? Let's say you make a lot of
- 7:26money. Let's say you're Dentist, and
- 7:28you make a lot of money, right? You are literally forced to
- 7:32become a part-time investor just to maintain value, right?
- 7:37Whereas in Bitcoin you could buy it.
- 7:39You could forget and you could focus on being the best dentist
- 7:43that you ever could. But now you're really stuck
- 7:47between being a part-time investor or Outsourcing that
- 7:50responsibility to companies like Wells, Fargo, right?
- 7:53So wolf Bitcoin really does change anything.
- 7:56I'm going to pass it on to say That's Joseph.
- 7:58Joseph what are your thoughts on this?
- 8:00This was very bullish. I know that they had another
- 8:03intention with that which is like this is the beginning you
- 8:06need us but the way that I'm seeing it right?
- 8:09Just put the noise aside is dude I think that their analysis on
- 8:13the fact that we are still early to bitcoin is really spot on.
- 8:19Yeah, so I've seen I've been quite surprised with the quality
- 8:23of the analysis from like the big banking houses and the past.
- 8:27Three years. So this is from Wells, Fargo, I
- 8:30haven't read it, but it looks as you say, it was bullish, it
- 8:33looks great, and they definitely know like what's going on,
- 8:37what's Happening? They have some really skilled
- 8:39analysis in that in there. And I've seen similar, for
- 8:42example, from Citibank GPS and the study is called Bitcoin at
- 8:47the Tipping Point very well written study.
- 8:51Its it has like 100 pages and also Fidelity recently and that
- 8:57was called Bitcoin first and in that study, the Fidelity
- 9:02analysis. Basically describe it going as a
- 9:04monetary good and have a beautiful comparison of Bitcoin
- 9:08gold and Fiat. So they understand what's going
- 9:12on. But as this piece of art behind
- 9:14me says, do you still Trust Banks get smart saving Bitcoin?
- 9:19You don't have to press these custard hands.
- 9:22They are trying to establish themselves as they are trying to
- 9:27position. From themselves in this new
- 9:30paradigm where Bitcoin is taking over, they are talking our
- 9:35language language. They are saying it's a monetary
- 9:38good and it's it has this S curve and stuff like that, but
- 9:43you don't have to trust them and we have seen both Celsius with
- 9:46block fi what's happening. What will happen if you trust
- 9:50these huge custody ins, it doesn't matter if they are like
- 9:54Kryptonite, a flex Celsius or some old.
- 9:57Dinosaur houses because they are going to leverage your coins.
- 10:02They are going to leverage your deposit and they are right.
- 10:05They will try to chase that yield to skim something of the
- 10:09top and give you like a half a percent yield.
- 10:12So just turn to it, just be your own bank, hold your coins, in
- 10:17the treasure in your wallet, any kind of void and you'll be much
- 10:21safer muted, my turn. Okay, okay so like the the
- 10:27Thanks, right. The banks have an existing tool
- 10:30set and they need to create this narrative.
- 10:33That this tool set is not only relevant but required going
- 10:39forward. So, rather than seat because the
- 10:42not the other piece to this is that banks have never actually
- 10:44had to create any real value, right?
- 10:47Like when you go in for a loan it doesn't make a difference.
- 10:49How much Bank the money has poof they create depth for you out of
- 10:53nowhere. It makes no difference.
- 10:55Yeah, sure. Will lend you that money.
- 10:56So imagine In always being able to create a source of income out
- 11:01of nowhere and now all of a sudden in a Bitcoin space you
- 11:05can no longer do that. So it's it's kind of like this
- 11:09mental hurdle that they as a I guess as an industry that they
- 11:13can't seem to get around. So rather than using resources
- 11:16to create value in a new space, they're going to just simply try
- 11:20to shoehorn the new industry into their model.
- 11:24And there's a really even though I don't like gloating this Until
- 11:27lab. There's a great book that he
- 11:29wrote that was called the bed of procrastinate.
- 11:31He's right? And the bed of procrastinators
- 11:33is exactly this, right? When you when essentially what
- 11:37would happen is is that when progressed he's had a guest come
- 11:42over. Okay.
- 11:43What would happen is that he would, if the guest was too
- 11:47small for the bed, he would stretch the guest out to fill
- 11:49the bed, right? And if the guest was too tall
- 11:52for the bed, he would cut off the limbs till he fit in.
- 11:55So always shoehorning Yeah, but that's the thing.
- 11:59This is what's going to be interesting, right?
- 12:01The bank's because there are banks that are going to win in
- 12:05this and the banks that are going to win are the ones that
- 12:08figure out how to create services and products for the
- 12:12Bitcoin space that do offer value and that bitcoiners and
- 12:18that bitcoiners actually see as something that they need or that
- 12:22they enjoy using with, which they are willing to separate
- 12:26themselves from their site. So Wells, Fargo, good step in
- 12:31the right direction but you tried a little too hard with
- 12:36the. You need us narrative.
- 12:38I 100% agree and you hit the nail on the head feel, right?
- 12:42They have to reinvent themselves, the whole
- 12:45rent-seeking model it's done and dusted.
- 12:49Now, what you always say, I'm going to steal this from you
- 12:51feel. They're actually going to have
- 12:53to find a way to provide real value.
- 12:56But anyways, Phil, it's Time for the Daily News.

- 13:26The big news is Big story today. Now we're going to get to the
- 13:29Daily fail. Anyways, check this out, ecv,
- 13:32Chief Lagarde crypto and defy could pose real risks to
- 13:37financial stability. Remember what I always say about
- 13:39Central bankers and projection? Now, here's the thing, I want to
- 13:44make the case, why, what? They're really there.
- 13:48It's twofold, right? Obviously Their Fear for their
- 13:52jobs, right? Because Bitcoin is a threat to
- 13:55that. But what I would like to make
- 13:56the argument today Is that what they really care about is the
- 13:59care about losing control? And what that control gives them
- 14:04what ability, that gives the central Bankers in the
- 14:07politicians enable for them to control their populations,
- 14:11right? And I'm going to give you an
- 14:12example of what that is, right? So ECB Chief Lagarde Krypton,
- 14:17defy could pose real risks to financial stability.
- 14:19It's always Financial, it's just generic term.
- 14:23What is financial stability? Does it mean her financial
- 14:25stability? Does it mean the financial
- 14:27stability? The of the central bank, right?
- 14:29We believe we are in, as we are embarking on the on this work,
- 14:33concerning crypto assets, and the risk that they pose the
- 14:37crypto assets and decentralized finance really should be called
- 14:40C Phi. At this point, have the
- 14:42potential to pose real risks to financial stability.
- 14:45It's always these generic statements that they don't get
- 14:47into the details. Why why did why is that, right?
- 14:51The ECB Chief noted that she's encouraged by the progress of
- 14:54em? I see a which we have covered
- 14:56many times on the show. So however, she added that to
- 14:58her understanding, it will not be implemented until 2024, which
- 15:03she stressed is a long way. Now, here's a signal guys, fully
- 15:07cover fully covered decentralised finance and
- 15:10regulated kryptos taking and lending activity.
- 15:13She said that's what the em. I see a covers.
- 15:16Remember what I always told you guys that something that isn't
- 15:19sufficiently decentralized will be inevitably captured by a
- 15:24government. The ECB boss hears, the signal,
- 15:27That the current em. I see a bill does not cover
- 15:31Bitcoin but she hopes it will be covered and em.
- 15:35I see a to how do you cover Bitcoin?
- 15:37We know that Bitcoin can't be descent regulated because it's
- 15:41decentralized and because it's on proof of work, that's why
- 15:43they want to ban proof of work, by the way.
- 15:46So what is this? You mean regulating the on and
- 15:49off ramps? Because that's really what they
- 15:51can do. Now, check out this article by
- 15:54Forbes, it looks like the Chinese Communist Party agrees
- 15:59with Christine Lagarde. Check this out.
- 16:02Here's a headline heading to zero China issues shock bitcoin
- 16:06price warning amid. Huge trilli, two trillion dollar
- 16:10crypto crash. A Chinese Communist Party
- 16:13newspaper. Has warned investors should be
- 16:15prepared for the Bitcoin price to hit zero.
- 16:18Bitcoin is nothing more than a string of digital codes and it's
- 16:22returns mainly come from buying low and selling High, the
- 16:25economic daily. Wrote.
- 16:27It was reported by the South China.
- 16:29China Morning Post in the future once investors confidence
- 16:32collapses are when Sovereign countries declare Bitcoin
- 16:35illegal there's the signal when Sovereign countries declare
- 16:39Bitcoin illegal it will return to its original value which is
- 16:42utterly worthless. Now, this is something that
- 16:44Christine Lagarde and the Chinese Communist Party.
- 16:47Have to understand there's an army of US debt would rather go
- 16:53down with the ship 20, then go back to the Fiat slavery system,
- 17:00that's not going to happen. And we end by the day, this Army
- 17:04keeps getting bigger, remember what we covered yesterday on the
- 17:06number segment. The number of addresses with
- 17:09point zero, one point one and one Bitcoin continues to go.
- 17:13Parabolic people are stacking the dip Last year he
- 17:18comprehensive Crackdown on bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, a
- 17:20China sent the Bitcoin price into Free Fall after the CCP
- 17:24ordered all Bitcoin miners who use powerful computers to secure
- 17:27the Bitcoin Network in Valley, transactions in return for fresh
- 17:30Bitcoins to shut down. Remember what happened when that
- 17:33happened, right? The hash rate decentralized and
- 17:36the hash rate return to all-time high in six months because of
- 17:41the profit incentive alone. So it looks like their theory of
- 17:46depending on sovereign. Countries to ban this because
- 17:48that's, that's what Christine Lagarde.
- 17:50Is hoping for as well at the end of the day, she might not say it
- 17:53outright, but this is how central banks and Banks Stamp
- 17:57Out Financial Innovation, they use the heavy hand of government
- 18:01to regulate it into Oblivion. You want to know why PayPal is
- 18:05such a shitty experience? It's because they regulated it
- 18:09to Eternity. That's why, but they can't do
- 18:12that with Bitcoin anyways, in September China's, Central Bank,
- 18:16declared all Bitcoin and crypto currency.
- 18:18Transactions, illegal promising to take action against anyone,
- 18:21facilitating crypto transactions and warning off.
- 18:24Show off shore, exchanges away from China now.
- 18:28It's funny because this is such a, you know, strong statement,
- 18:31all we could ban it, we can make it go to way.
- 18:33It's estimated that 10% of the hash rate is still located in a
- 18:36China. So the profit incentive is
- 18:39greater than the coercion something that I always say on
- 18:41this show. Now why is Christine Lagarde so
- 18:44obsessed with regulating Bitcoin?
- 18:47Why is the Chinese Communist party?
- 18:49So obsessed with regulating this thing.
- 18:51Here's why. Because people on a Bitcoin
- 18:54standard cannot be controlled, that's why?
- 18:59Christine lagarde's case. You can't inflate people away
- 19:02under a Bitcoin standard. It sucks for the central
- 19:05planners. Anyways, Chinese calm Chinese
- 19:08officials. Use the pandemic health code
- 19:10system to stop a bank run. They turned all the would be
- 19:15withdrawals codes, read before they can get to the bank.
- 19:19Effectively unperson them. If you want to know why.
- 19:26They ban Bitcoin. This is why if you want to know
- 19:30why Christine Lagarde and the Chinese Communist Party are
- 19:34mirroring the same thing. We have to regulate it.
- 19:36We have to get rid of it as dangerous as dangerous to the
- 19:39financial system. This is the financial system.
- 19:41They Envision US Financial system of Central Bank, digital
- 19:45currencies. This is the future they want for
- 19:49you. And this is a central planners
- 19:50wet dream. Oh, you went to a protest that
- 19:54you don't like your QR code just turned red.
- 19:58I'm sorry about that. This is exactly what we saw in
- 20:01China. So Christine Lagarde Chinese
- 20:04Communist party, go pound sand. The honey badger doesn't care,
- 20:10our incentives are much better than yours.
- 20:13You could use coercion as much as you want, but time isn't on
- 20:18your side because number technology number, go up
- 20:20technology is on the side of Freedom sucks for you guys.
- 20:25Anyways, Joseph, what are your thoughts?
- 20:29Well, you're on fire Niko. It's hard to follow up on that
- 20:34but they say I've got the T-shirt actually, Honey, Badger
- 20:36doesn't care. You don't care about what they
- 20:40think they can regulate it can control because it's simply not
- 20:44the case between cannot be regulated.
- 20:46And I'm talking a lot recently to people from poor developing
- 20:52countries that are not part of the privilege club countries
- 20:55like Zimbabwe, South Africa, Cuba, Venezuela, Argentina, And
- 21:01Bitcoin in those countries is absolutely Unstoppable because
- 21:05there are no device exchanges, no, single points of failure,
- 21:09everything is purely peer-to-peer and these people
- 21:13actually get it from the get-go. If they are introduced to
- 21:16bitcoin, they understand it straight away straight away
- 21:20because they know their money sucks, it has sucked for a long
- 21:23time. If you've read, for example,
- 21:27Alex guts, teens article, On the CFA system in Africa, the
- 21:31colonial Frank system, South Central African Republic is
- 21:36actually one of the countries that made Bitcoin the legal
- 21:38tender and they are part of the CFA system and it's obvious for
- 21:42them. And there is no way to stop it.
- 21:45Stop it because it's all peer-to-peer.
- 21:48So, this is 11 point where we could actually learn like, we
- 21:55westerners Europeans Americans where we could actually learn.
- 21:59On the unprivileged to make Bitcoin more peer-to-peer in our
- 22:04communities, we have a duty to stack without kyc straight into
- 22:09our wallets and just Bond, like, with Farmers with local
- 22:15merchants and stuff, and don't drive them to the centralized
- 22:19exchanges. But to do stuff, like basic or
- 22:21what we are actually building in Satoshi laps is like a
- 22:25peer-to-peer Bitcoin on kyc All right, cut platform that we are
- 22:32going to roll out probably by the fall and we need to cite
- 22:37these because if people like Lagarde or people from the
- 22:41European commission, decides to ban 24 for work or Bitcoin, they
- 22:48have quite an easy job in front of them because they can ban
- 22:52people from, for example, withdrawing from the exchanges
- 22:56and most of these users will be alone.
- 22:59That's why that's a problem. So we need to build these
- 23:05parallel systems where Bitcoin is used as it should be
- 23:09absolutely. And I think you really hit the
- 23:12nail on the head with the centralizing everything and that
- 23:16means the on and off ramps, right?
- 23:19I actually have a pin to eat on my profile taking Bitcoin into
- 23:22Cold Storage as a revolutionary act.
- 23:24If enough people do it, we win, right?
- 23:26Because it creates a Bitcoin circular economy.
- 23:29All right. They could only really control
- 23:32the on and off ramps. Right.
- 23:33That's the only thing they can control.
- 23:36They can't regulate Bitcoin. That's why they want to kill
- 23:38roof proof of work. That's why you hear.
- 23:40Christine Lagarde in the Chinese Communist Party said it's going
- 23:43to 0. I promise it's to stay away from
- 23:46that. If you look at the actual facts
- 23:48and the data Bitcoins never been healthier.
- 23:50Even with this price correction Bitcoin, today has never been
- 23:53more decentralized has never been healthier than it is at
- 23:56this moment, right? So yeah, they can.
- 23:59Continue to pound sand, take self, custody because if you
- 24:02don't take self custody, you are in danger of people from
- 24:07Christine like Christine Lagarde and the Chinese Communist party,
- 24:10right? Because that's really what they
- 24:12can only capture. They could capture the
- 24:14businesses that are prone to judicial regulation but they
- 24:19can't capture the individual and individuals transacting with
- 24:23each other and platforms like bisque.
- 24:25And I'm really curious to hear more about what you guys are
- 24:29working on a Satoshi Labs, right?
- 24:31They facilitate peer-to-peer transactions and actually in in
- 24:35most countries that don't have developed Financial where ails,
- 24:39the majority of Bitcoin trading happens, peer-to-peer?
- 24:43It's telegram chats. It's WhatsApp chats, right.
- 24:47And that's how people trade they don't trade over these
- 24:51exchanges. That we have the privilege to
- 24:53use in the west, but just because it's a privilege.
- 24:56It's also a weak spot, right? Because It can be captured by
- 25:00governments and I think it's just a matter of time.
- 25:02Anyways. Phil why don't you try Min
- 25:04brother? Yeah.
- 25:05The Bitcoin going to 0 thing, I think is a really great counter
- 25:11indicator and if people remember what happened during the
- 25:15mortgage crisis, as Freddie, Mac, and Fannie Mae were going
- 25:19down the tube. The investment houses were
- 25:22giving them amazing ratings right these, These are great.
- 25:26They've got these loans are secured.
- 25:29Okay? Now, I know that's not the same
- 25:30thing as a country saying that Bitcoin is going to zero, but
- 25:34that should tell you the type of the, the type of narrative that
- 25:41they need to present in order to continue to Kick the Can down
- 25:45the road, okay? So the central Bankers they
- 25:47understand, right? Like they, they completely
- 25:49understand that their System requires everyone believing in
- 25:54having faith and being trustful. But besides that, we all need to
- 25:59be fearful fearful that if we don't follow the system, we are
- 26:03going to get in trouble, right? Bad.
- 26:06Things are gonna happen to us, we just have to do what we're
- 26:08told, and it's going to be okay, never forget people were doing
- 26:11what they were told before the mortgage crisis.
- 26:14Okay, that didn't stop that from happening.
- 26:17So this is complete nonsense. People did what they were told
- 26:20during The most recent poll endemic didn't change anything.
- 26:26It's just very, very strange. So the thing is this, right?
- 26:29What we need to remember is a scapegoat is needed, okay?
- 26:33Because keep in mind approximately every six to eight
- 26:36years, there is a bust of some type, some type of a financial
- 26:40bust. We're pretty much coming up on
- 26:41that six to eight year time frame.
- 26:44We need a scapegoat and what better scapegoat the best
- 26:47scapegoat is one that is completely transparent one that
- 26:50everyone can look at everything that's scapegoat like Bitcoin.
- 26:55So I I think that it's completely hypocritical the
- 26:57other piece to this is where is the actual data.
- 27:01Like, they always tell you that Bitcoin is going to 0?
- 27:04How, how is Bitcoin going to 0? When when is it going to 0 you
- 27:09have such intimate Financial knowledge, right?
- 27:13These amazing financial instruments, you should be able
- 27:16to tell us beyond the shadow of a doubt how it's going to 0,
- 27:19right? You should be able to dismantle
- 27:21the Bitcoin use case but they can't.
- 27:23They cannot so All they have is fun and the last piece to this
- 27:28is the hash rate. The hash rate went higher than
- 27:32its previous all-time high. We watched it you and I we
- 27:37watched it happen after they banned it.
- 27:40It got chopped by 50%, then came back to its previous all-time
- 27:44high. And then went approximately 15%
- 27:47higher than its previous all-time high.
- 27:50That's not that, that's not something, that's dying.
- 27:53That's telling you right there that the people who understand
- 27:57censorship, the people who understand what it's like to
- 28:00have the government freeze. Your bank accounts.
- 28:03Stop you from transacting. These people understand why
- 28:07Bitcoin specifically Bitcoin is very important and don't think
- 28:12for a second that people like Christine Lagarde.
- 28:14Don't understand why it's important.
- 28:16She understands very well why it's important which is all the
- 28:19more reason why The rhetoric is intensifying.
- 28:23It's getting louder. I mean think about it at this
- 28:25before it was it was just the criminals the environment.
- 28:29Now they pulled out all the stops, it's just going to 0.
- 28:32That's it. It's it's flat-out.
- 28:34It's gonna zero. There's nothing that you can do
- 28:36to stop it so that that should tell us right there, the most
- 28:40perfect counter indicator. Just let's keep our heads down.
- 28:44We're going to stack our SATs. We're going to continue to learn
- 28:46about Bitcoin. We're going to continue to learn
- 28:48about self sovereignty. E and self custody and making
- 28:52sure that we keep our Bitcoin off the exchanges.
- 28:55Because there's always another shoe that drops for some reason
- 28:59when it comes to these services and these platforms where we
- 29:03trust them with our Bitcoin. So I like sat Joseph, what you
- 29:07said, I did not know, the treasure was working on a
- 29:11platform like this. And like Nico said, I'm very
- 29:13curious as to, as to what you guys are doing.
- 29:16So I'll thank you in advance, will definitely have to bring it
- 29:20back. On the show to talk about it.
- 29:22When there's more information out, guys, pay attention to the
- 29:26signal Wells, Fargo investment arm saying, Bitcoins going to
- 29:29the Moon, Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, the Chinese
- 29:33Communist Party Christine Lagarde, Warren Buffett, the
- 29:37world economic Forum. All, hey Bitcoin, that's a
- 29:41signal right there baby. Anyways, Phil, it's time for the
- 29:44daily fail brought to you by Swan, check them out.
- 29:48So on bitcoin.com. Mom, that's right.
- 29:51Automated Bitcoin savings plans. Instant purchases they've got an
- 29:55app coming out. Swan Bitcoin is the best place
- 30:00to build your Bitcoin stack. Check them out.
- 30:02The link is down below before we dive into our shit coin fail,
- 30:06just on the heels of explaining the block fi debacle The Celsius
- 30:12debacle from last week, the Babel finance that Nico keeps
- 30:15mentioning. Here we go.
- 30:17Voyager. Digital digital provides.
- 30:20Market update. This is June 27 2022.
- 30:24And here we go Voyager digital today, announced that its
- 30:27operating subsidiary Voyager, digital LLC has issued a notice
- 30:32of default to three arrows, capital for failure, to make the
- 30:36required payments on its previously, disclosed alone, a
- 30:3915,000, 250 BTC and 350 million. USD, see Voyager intends to
- 30:48pursue recovery from three hours.
- 30:50Rose Capital and is in discussions with the company's
- 30:53advisors as to the legal remedies available.
- 30:57Now, I don't think this is the end, I think that we're going to
- 31:01see a lot more of this, but moving on, from the Grim unhappy
- 31:06stuff that is happening in these Financial Services, which really
- 31:09should not have been, okay? Because they were offering
- 31:11yield, which they couldn't do hoping that the Bitcoin price
- 31:15just goes straight up like a hockey stick.
- 31:19You know, I mean, don't get me wrong, I'd love for that to be
- 31:21true, but it just doesn't so moving on.
- 31:24We're going to go to something a little more lighthearted, but
- 31:27still total train wreck total train wreck.
- 31:31I thought I had seen it all Nico with that, that whole sex to pay
- 31:35or whatever the hell that was. But here we go guys, it's the
- 31:39step app. That's right.
- 31:41Apparently exercising and your health wasn't enough.
- 31:45What if we could put your Fitness Hour Fitness, On the
- 31:49blockchain, right? I could see SATs Joseph, he's
- 31:52already excited. He's thinking, man.
- 31:53How do I get in on this crap? Now, I'm kidding.
- 31:57Nobody wants this. Okay, let's dive into it.
- 31:59Here we go. Traditional Industries are
- 32:00currently facing an ultimatum either embrace the new
- 32:04technology or succumb to Old methods.
- 32:07So get ready. You think that I'm explaining to
- 32:09you? You know this this new pay to
- 32:13Fitness or Fitness to pay ecosystem.
- 32:17But really what's happening is is we're gonna sell you some
- 32:20Sizzle for absolutely no reason and that is exactly what this
- 32:24article intends to do, going to fill it up with a whole bunch of
- 32:27puffery to make you think this is, this is gonna happen and I
- 32:31can't miss out that you gotta love this about how they, how
- 32:34they spin articles. Anyways, here we go.
- 32:36Corporations will spend nearly 20-billion on blockchain
- 32:40Services. By 2024 blockchain has emerged
- 32:43as a revolutionary disruptive technology, creating
- 32:46opportunities across Finance real estate.
- 32:49Attainment, Healthcare and gaming.
- 32:51It's also pivotal to web three and is undoubtedly here to stay.
- 32:56Boom, we've got the buzzword Bingo.
- 32:58We've got web three in there, and the best part is they've got
- 33:01a number for you to focus on, right?
- 33:03That's that's the best part. 20 billion dollars by 2024.
- 33:07If only, we could capture a piece of that market, tell me
- 33:11how One of the industries that is undergoing significant
- 33:15changes due to blockchains impact is Fitness.
- 33:19You're probably wondering really Fitness, the sector was worth
- 33:24ninety six point seven billion globally in 2020, immense
- 33:29opportunity for projects integrating blockchain and
- 33:32fitness. Here we go.
- 33:34Enter the step app. It aims to build the first ever
- 33:39Fitness Finance metaverse, Fit, fi that's right.
- 33:44Virtually working out. Now I'm kidding.
- 33:46It's actually really working out but getting paid in shit, coin,
- 33:49because that matters fusing Fitness, finance and crypto,
- 33:53fit. Fi incentivizes individuals to
- 33:56stay fit and live healthily step app.
- 33:59For instance, has introduced move to earn or m2e.
- 34:03I always, I always loved the acronyms.
- 34:04They always make me feel like this is just a little more Tech
- 34:07and futuristic. The incentivisation model
- 34:10rewards users who achieve Various fitness goals on the
- 34:14platform. Step Up runs on Avalanche and
- 34:18features. A native token KCAL because you
- 34:22couldn't possibly work out without a native token.
- 34:27You couldn't pay somebody in Bitcoin or in traditional fiat
- 34:30currency. No, no.
- 34:32It needs Fitness needs its own money and they are here to solve
- 34:36this problem. The KCAL token is based on
- 34:40Avalanches Arc, 20 standard. Moreover it's a deflationary
- 34:45asset with a maximum supply of five billion.
- 34:49Oh wow. So the central issuer is letting
- 34:52you know, it's finite and there's only five billion.
- 34:54They're never going to make any more of this users can earn KCAL
- 34:58by running and in turn can spend them to purchase sneak and FTS.
- 35:03They can also stake these n FTS to earn more cake.
- 35:06I thought we were exercising Sounds to me like just a bunch
- 35:10of shit coining again. Anyways, the team is thus
- 35:13expressed its dedication to web three principles.
- 35:15There we go. Calling in web 3, the magical
- 35:18powers of web three that will instantly bring you into the
- 35:21future and decentralization aiming for a genuinely.
- 35:24There we go. Be centralized economy.
- 35:26This decision. Also, minimizes the risks of
- 35:29Wales dominating the Project's future.
- 35:31So look, instead of the whales, you only have to deal with the
- 35:34central, issuing authority, better so much, better step up
- 35:38implements. Their token distribution
- 35:39mechanism. Centralized, of course, that's
- 35:42how they Implement that, it'll circulate 14% of the tokens who
- 35:46will circulate 14% of those tokens in a public sale, 30%
- 35:50through Mining and the move to earn model.
- 35:53Additionally users can earn 20% of the tokens through staking
- 35:57liquidity and in-game incentives.
- 36:00So in other words a rug pull to come but it's okay.
- 36:03Have no fear of not going to rug because here we go.
- 36:06Step step apps team and the advisors are completely doxxed
- 36:12while we've never seen anyone that's completely dark.
- 36:14Strong pull before Alex Mission ski.
- 36:17Anyways, the people behind this Venture are also deeply
- 36:20experienced in Fitness. Ah, that means they know about
- 36:25money, for sure, that means they know about blockchain step,
- 36:28CEOs, kiril volgin, was formerly the CFO and Z re on a trusted
- 36:34multi chain wallet for web 3. It's ETO Dimitri Gordy.
- 36:38A Chuck is also a Pioneer in defy, so you know, that wrecked
- 36:43leaderboard that we show you all the time, with all those with
- 36:46all those drunk pulls that, that's the defy world.
- 36:48So he's well-versed. He's a Pioneer in that defy
- 36:51world that already brings me, the warm and fuzzies, and that's
- 36:54what people want when they make an investment, several raised in
- 36:58which users can earn in-game rewards.
- 37:00They can complete using staking governance tokens with a 2.5.
- 37:06Percent fee on the winning pool. There we go.
- 37:09Again, the governance tokens. What was that shit coin?
- 37:12Oh yeah, I think it was Solana where a million dollars worth of
- 37:15the government. Stoke governance tokens were
- 37:18able to manage what 270 million dollars.
- 37:22Worth of Solana was going to do, think that's what just happened,
- 37:25but have no fear about the governance tokens.
- 37:28Let's continue on with the use case, winning tournaments
- 37:31rewards players with unique Avatar, skins, and a dedicated
- 37:34leader board doesn't need to be Money to get started.
- 37:38Users must first register themselves and then they receive
- 37:42fat tokens and sneak and FTS. That's right.
- 37:45Before you start working out, you're getting fat tokens, okay?
- 37:49Players must burn the collected fat tokens, very clever and earn
- 37:53KCAL tokens to earn while walking.
- 37:57So I get a fat token and then I lose weight and get KCAL tokens.
- 38:03All right, users who successfully complete quests can
- 38:05also earn Learn unique and valuable and FTS.
- 38:09That's right. And FTS are once again an
- 38:12investment use case. So here we go.
- 38:15The project strongly intertwines its social dynamics with
- 38:17tokenized learning mechanics focusing on experience based
- 38:21consumption to guarantee the token emissions are offset by
- 38:25leisurely spending What the fuck was that?
- 38:30That, that made actually, no sense to me at all, but I, but I
- 38:33had to read it because I thought it was funny.
- 38:35It's gonna help people reimagine their fitness goals, moving
- 38:37forward working to lay the foundation for a healthier more
- 38:42active World. Alright, so here's a crazy.
- 38:44Thought this is, this is a crazy thought.
- 38:46Number one, this doesn't need to be money.
- 38:49Number two, if you want to make a fitness app and you want to
- 38:52pay people, you can do that, okay?
- 38:55You don't need to make a shit coin that's created out of thin
- 38:57air. Where you're creating the
- 38:59illusion of providing value to the people that are giving you
- 39:04their Fitness data. Because really, that's what's
- 39:06happening. They're giving you a shit coin
- 39:08that they meant for free and really what they're getting in
- 39:12return is Fitness data. So I'm going to propose that
- 39:15they are going to attempt to sell this Fitness data and the
- 39:19last piece to this is this If you're going to exercise your
- 39:24reward should be that you in turn have better health, you
- 39:30intern feel more fit. You do not need to get a shit
- 39:35coin, okay? You do not need to get rug
- 39:37pulled. You don't need to trust these
- 39:39people. This move to earn stuff is
- 39:41complete garbage. Why would somebody pay you to go
- 39:45jogging? They are not paying you to jog
- 39:48right now. There is no actual use cases.
- 39:52To pay you to do exercise. That is a personal decision that
- 39:57you make for yourself. Anyways, sot Joseph.
- 40:01I I saw you smiling throughout that.
- 40:04And I just are, what are you thinking about this?
- 40:07This pay to Fitness. I don't even know what the thigh
- 40:09fit, whatever. Yeah, I love that.
- 40:12It has everything. It's like 2017 Ico on steroids.
- 40:18There's. And if these Bears defies they
- 40:22And like they just improved the formula from 2007 PPM but it
- 40:27makes absolutely zero sense. As you say, nobody is going to
- 40:30pay us for exercising, that's just insane.
- 40:36And yeah, if they wanted to pay the users with actual money,
- 40:41they would probably integrate lightning Network as we've seen
- 40:44with stuff like CBD and projects like that that right to actually
- 40:50make something valuable. So yeah, Pope just steal clear
- 40:55away of these bullshit apps and like why would I trust these
- 41:01guys? They are just creating another
- 41:03tokens and their bio has nothing to do with exercise.
- 41:07Nothing to do with building successful, exercise apps.
- 41:12Yeah. They created some tokens before.
- 41:16Why would I cross them? So yeah.
- 41:19Just just focus on the signal. There are 20,000 Bitcoins out
- 41:22there and there is only one that matters that there, there's
- 41:26Bitcoin. Absolutely beautiful.
- 41:29I think you said it. Perfectly look, Nico.
- 41:32If it had value, they wouldn't be giving it out for free.
- 41:36Why, why do none of these apps give out Bitcoin because
- 41:40actually worth something? Are you going to fit fine Eco?
- 41:44I mean honestly, I just like anything that could become a
- 41:49shit coin. What I learned this cycle hat?
- 41:52They've managed to make it a shit coin and Phil hasn't missed
- 41:56one and it just like how I don't know if they're going to be able
- 42:00to keep this up. Like what happens next cycle?
- 42:03People aren't going to buy into this BS, right?
- 42:05We lived in that, we lived through the icy.
- 42:07Oh boom, that went away. Then the nft boom and then just
- 42:13create shit coins for absolutely no frickin reason.
- 42:17Boom. What's going to happen to an
- 42:19expo Market 2024 2025? What?
- 42:22Happens then. Well, we also had the liquidity
- 42:24pools, right? Which was essentially a very
- 42:27clever way of taking everyone else's liquidity away so that
- 42:31you can you know have way more of your Bitcoin or whatever it
- 42:35is that you were, you know, whatever it was that you were
- 42:37stacking because there are plenty of Fiat maximalist out
- 42:39there. So again, right, we've come to
- 42:42the point where there's nothing left like.
- 42:45Now, at this point, they have to trick you so hard.
- 42:48It's either it's one of the two either they have to make it so
- 42:51complicated. X.
- 42:52And so strange that they confuse you into thinking that this is
- 42:56worth it or they have to make it.
- 42:58So incredibly stupid that unfortunately, only the most
- 43:02gullible are going to get stung, right away.
- 43:05Yep. So stick to bitcoin, guys.
- 43:08Don't get rug pulled by the running up.
- 43:10Anyway, so it's time for the daily meme review brought to
- 43:14you, by Citadel 21. It's the best.

- 43:28physical copies made per volume. So get your prints of Citadel 21
- 43:31today before they run out. Check this out.
- 43:33Sometimes we review images that are memes.

- 44:45The it's just like this is the domino effect, right?
- 44:50This is what's affecting Compass.
- 44:51This is It's all connected. It's all a sea of shit coin
- 44:55during all coming down. When the bear Market hits.
- 44:58Remember guys I'm going to keep repeating this and bull markets
- 45:01to shit Corners look like Geniuses oh my God, it's
- 45:04outperforming Bitcoin. Oh man blah blah blah blah blah.
- 45:08But when the bear Market inevitably wins Bitcoin is King
- 45:12anyways, rope. And by the way, a lot of those
- 45:14shit coins will not make it to the previous all-time highs.
- 45:18So, don't get caught into this idea of.
