Why Tucker Carlson is a Bitcoiner | EP 825 · Simply Bitcoin

• 0:08
  It's all going to zero against Bitcoin.
• 0:11
  It's going up forever. You're against Bitcoin.
• 0:21
  You're against freedom. Yeah, we're going to simply
• 0:25
  Bitcoin live. We're number one source for the
• 0:27
  peaceful Bitcoin revolution car making news called traumatic
• 0:29
  warfare. We will be your guide through
• 0:30
  the separation of money and state.
• 0:32
  Before anyone makes fun of me in the chat, my motherinlaw got me
• 0:35
  these like blue light blocker glasses and I put them on last
• 0:40
  night and I felt like immediate relief.
• 0:42
  And there's like different shades for it.
• 0:44
  So, like, these are like night time when the T v's there and
• 0:48
  then these are like right before you're going to you're going to
• 0:51
  go to sleep. But apparently these are for
• 0:52
  daytime anyways. They're badass.
• 0:55
  Your eyes literally feel like they're relaxing.
• 0:59
  And Opti of course, is already trolling me and as well, I'm
• 1:02
  sure the chat is as well. So that's why I'm wearing these.
• 1:05
  Maybe maybe I'll continue where they feel good.
• 1:08
  I'm on my computer all day. You know what?
• 1:10
  I I don't care at this point. Anyways, guys, today is going to
• 1:13
  be a great, great show. We orange tinted glasses.
• 1:17
  I didn't think about that. Today's going to be a great
• 1:18
  show. We're going to, we're going to
• 1:20
  talk about the man, the myth, the legend, Tucker Carlson
• 1:22
  himself. His show last night that he
• 1:26
  released on Twitter, which I highly, highly recommend,
• 1:31
  actually has, last time I checked, 320 million views.
• 1:36
  It beat the interview that he did with Donald Trump by like
• 1:41
  100 million views. And once again, you have a
• 1:46
  politician, right? So Justin Trudeau is basically
• 1:49
  gaslighting, saying like, you know, we have to put price
• 1:52
  controls on the grocery stores for raising the prices and all
• 1:57
  that stuff. But you have a politician who is
• 2:00
  literally identifying the problem.
• 2:02
  He's literally saying the government is the problem, the
• 2:05
  money printing is the problem, the the, the government is the
• 2:09
  sole cause of these things. You have an Austrian economist
• 2:13
  who has a really good opportunity, really good shot at
• 2:18
  winning the presidency, and why I believe this video was so
• 2:25
  popular was the same reason as to why I believe that video,
• 2:30
  Richmond, north of Richmond went viral the way it did.
• 2:35
  People are feeling the pain, people are questioning the
• 2:40
  current system, and people are desperately seeking an
• 2:45
  alternative. Which is why I believe this,
• 2:48
  this hardcore libertarian Austrian economist has a really
• 2:54
  good shot at winning the presidency in Argentina.
• 2:58
  And the country is currently dealing with 100% inflation.
• 3:01
  Like, like obviously people are questioning it.
• 3:04
  And when you have a politician who's actually identifying the
• 3:07
  real cause of inflation, like why it's happening in the 1st
• 3:11
  place, you know, people put two and two together, right?
• 3:18
  Javier Meli wouldn't be popular if he didn't strike a nerve.
• 3:23
  Richmond, north of Richmond, wouldn't have gone viral, right?
• 3:27
  Without any of the marketing and any of the push by the big
• 3:30
  studios. It was just basically a very
• 3:32
  small studio. It's a guy in his backyard with
• 3:35
  his dog literally singing into a microphone that would not have
• 3:39
  gone viral if it did not resonate with people, if people
• 3:44
  weren't feeling the pain that he was feeling.
• 3:49
  Right. So this is we are living through
• 3:52
  in my opinion, the separation of money and state.
• 3:55
  All all these roads like even if Oliver Anthony and even if you
• 4:00
  know Javier Mali, you know he and we know he likes Bitcoin,
• 4:03
  but you know he wants to dollarize the the the country.
• 4:05
  All roads eventually lead to Bitcoin.
• 4:08
  Some people take the longer Rd. some people take the shorter Rd.
• 4:12
  But eventually, it all leads to the inevitable conclusion that
• 4:16
  we have to separate money from state.
• 4:18
  Because as long as the state has the privilege of being able to
• 4:22
  create money for free that everyone else has to work for,
• 4:26
  they will abuse that privilege to benefit themselves and
• 4:30
  benefit their friends at the expense of everyone else.
• 4:35
  And this is exactly what Bitcoin fixes.
• 4:37
  So this is really, really exciting times.
• 4:40
  Tucker. I don't think he would be at
• 4:42
  this point if it wasn't with the conversations that he had with
• 4:46
  Nambu. Kale Tucker would not be at this
• 4:49
  point if it wasn't the if. If he didn't have the
• 4:51
  conversations with Michael Saylor.
• 4:54
  Tucker would not be at this point if he didn't have the
• 4:56
  conversations with Max Kaiser. And even though he was the most
• 5:00
  popular broadcaster on the legacy corporate media, his
• 5:04
  words were so dangerous that they had to fire the guy.
• 5:09
  And that makes sense. Look at all the other articles
• 5:11
  that are that's coming out of the legacy corporate media,
• 5:14
  attacking naive bouquet, attacking Javier Miley, because
• 5:20
  I think they're exposing the fraud that is Fiat money and the
• 5:26
  fraud that is the current established system.
• 5:29
  Anyways, it's going to be a great show.
• 5:31
  Before we get to it, I want to bring up my legendary cohost.
• 5:34
  We're both wearing glasses now. Opti make fun and Opti was make.
• 5:40
  I was chilling you hard. It's so much fun of me in the
• 5:43
  beginning, but I'm gonna buy you a pair.
• 5:45
  You're gonna be, you're never gonna take off anymore because.
• 5:48
  I I need the colorblind one. Your eyes are literally gonna
• 5:51
  relax, bro. Like your your eyes are
• 5:53
  literally like look at my eyes are like relaxing right now.
• 5:56
  They're like they're like, ah like, I don't think you even
• 5:59
  know what that means, that your eyes feel relief.
• 6:02
  Like you don't even know what that means, bro.
• 6:04
  That's what I have no idea. I've never looked as cool as you
• 6:07
  do right now with those glasses on.
• 6:09
  So I I wouldn't know, I wouldn't know.
• 6:11
  But anything. Anyways, to the opening
• 6:14
  monologue, which was great. Very, very eloquent and and you
• 6:19
  had that that politician rhetoric going right there.
• 6:21
  I really liked it. I really enjoyed it.
• 6:24
  One of the things that's pretty crazy is the fact that Tucker
• 6:28
  got so many views on this. What?
• 6:29
  What? I don't know what it is now, but
• 6:31
  last time I checked it was like 322. 322 million.
• 6:34
  Like that's damn near the whole US population.
• 6:38
  And we all know that Fox wasn't getting to every single person
• 6:42
  in the US. Obviously it's global, but that
• 6:45
  that reach that Tucker has on Twitter or X is just.
• 6:49
  It's absolutely crazy. And this goes back to what we
• 6:53
  keep saying all the time of breaking the echo chamber and
• 6:55
  planting these ideas. And you know, of course Tucker
• 6:58
  doesn't have to go full Bitcoin. You know, Maxi like we do on our
• 7:01
  show. But the fact he's having these
• 7:03
  conversations, I think, does feel.
• 7:05
  Like a shift in the zeitgeist and people are waking up and and
• 7:09
  we've been kind of covering pinpoints and and receipts about
• 7:12
  this constantly, whether it's the song, whether it's the post
• 7:15
  that I did yesterday in the culture, whether it's the TikTok
• 7:17
  videos. Like people are feeling the pain
• 7:20
  and they're asking the questions and so you know the soil is
• 7:22
  right for people to understand Bitcoin.
• 7:25
  For everyone to get on the Bitcoin standard.
• 7:27
  So it's just wow, 335 million views now.
• 7:30
  OK dude, the Overton window is is is shifting man.
• 7:34
  People are sick and tired. People are sick and tired of the
• 7:37
  gaslighting. You had opties ex-girlfriend
• 7:39
  literally telling people that the cause of inflation is
• 7:43
  because workers are asking for more salary.
• 7:46
  Like it's absurd. Anyways, we do have a very
• 7:49
  special guest today. We have James from Stamp seed
• 7:53
  and we're gonna talk about the stamp seed before.
• 7:55
  Look, I gotta show off my stamp seed hammer.
• 7:57
  Look at this thing. Nice.
• 7:59
  There you go. We got two.
• 8:01
  We got two stamp seed hammers. So I'm very excited for the
• 8:05
  culture. We're gonna talk about the stamp
• 8:07
  seed, why you should back up your Bitcoin wallet seed Words
• 8:12
  on titanium. One of the strongest metals on
• 8:14
  planet Earth. Is that correct, James?
• 8:16
  That's correct, 100%. Yeah, man.
• 8:18
  So we're gonna dive deep into all that.
• 8:22
  And I know a lot of you guys, I know that you did, you guys did
• 8:24
  a lot of the stress testing. I think it was locked.
• 8:26
  That did some of the stress testing.
• 8:28
  Some of the comments Migo, you remind me of Bono from you too,
• 8:32
  it's true. But I don't think Bono was
• 8:34
  wearing these. I think Bono was wearing these
• 8:36
  for stylistic reasons. I'm wearing these so that my
• 8:39
  eyes could relax from the from the evil blue light that's
• 8:42
  coming out of my screen. Anyways, so yeah, you guys did a
• 8:46
  lot of stress testing on the stamp seed.
• 8:48
  That's correct, right. Yeah, we haven't had LOB stress
• 8:52
  tested yet. I think that's in the works
• 8:53
  right now. But we tested ourselves in house
• 8:56
  various different sources of heat.
• 8:58
  One of them was a blowtorch, which is similar to Elon Musk,
• 9:01
  not a flamethrower which is reaching temperatures triple the
• 9:04
  average house fire. And this is one of the plates
• 9:06
  that we had stress tested. You can see it's been burnt to a
• 9:10
  crisp. That's why there's all that
• 9:11
  discoloration. We marked it up so where you can
• 9:14
  see those hammer marks are hit, you can still see your letters.
• 9:17
  It might not come out too clear on the camera.
• 9:19
  Bent it, crushed it. You know, being that it's one
• 9:21
  solid piece and your letters are stamped deep into the metal.
• 9:24
  When you bend it, things aren't going to There you go, Yeah,
• 9:27
  things aren't going to fall apart, you know.
• 9:29
  There's no loose pieces, no loose tiles.
• 9:31
  Scrabble pieces, I like to call them.
• 9:33
  Everything's in there. Yeah, like this is like as if
• 9:37
  your house caught on fire that elephants elephants stamped on
• 9:40
  the ruins afterwards. Yeah, right.
• 9:42
  This is what this looks like. Yeah, or if you know your house,
• 9:46
  you have two floors. Maybe the first floor collapses
• 9:48
  during that fire and you have some crushing issues on top of
• 9:51
  it. But the chances are things like
• 9:53
  that hopefully aren't happening to most people.
• 9:55
  But if they do? You're secure if they do your
• 9:58
  money, Your generational wealth is protected anyways, Guys,
• 10:02
  let's jump into the numbers. I wanna talk about Tucker.
• 10:05
  I wanna talk about everything that's been happening.
• 10:08
  Let's check it out. The Bitcoin numbers.
• 10:12
  Is your Bitcoin and cold storage really secure?
• 10:15
  Is your seed phrase really secure?
• 10:18
  Stamp seeds? Do it yourself.
• 10:20
  Kit has everything you need to hammer your seed words into
• 10:23
  commercial grade titanium plates instead of just writing them on
• 10:28
  paper. Don't store your generational
• 10:30
  wealth on paper. Papers prone to water damage,
• 10:34
  fire damage. You want to put your
• 10:36
  generational wealth on one of the strongest metals on planet
• 10:39
  earth, Titanium. Your words are actually stamped
• 10:42
  into this metal plate with this hammer and these letter stamps.
• 10:45
  And once your words are in, they aren't going anywhere.
• 10:48
  No risk of the plate breaking apart and pieces falling
• 10:51
  everywhere. Titanium stamp seeds will
• 10:54
  survive nearly triple the heat produced by a house fire.
• 10:57
  They're also crush proof, waterproof, non corrosive, and
• 11:00
  time proof. All things that paper is not
• 11:02
  allowing you to huddle your Bitcoin with Peace of Mind for
• 11:05
  the long haul. Stamp your seed on stamp seed.
• 11:10
  Alright guys, I literally made it super easy for you guys.
• 11:13
  You could scan the cure code on your screen, it'll take you
• 11:15
  directly to the stamp seed website, and you can use promo
• 11:19
  code simply to get 15% off any of the stamp seed products.
• 11:24
  And I know you guys are doing custom back plates too.
• 11:28
  I saw some that were really badass.
• 11:30
  Yeah. Anyways, so do you have one by
• 11:34
  the way on hand? I do actually.
• 11:38
  Actually. No, I don't, I lied.
• 11:39
  But you can see them on our website.
• 11:40
  We have a couple of custom plates that are going to be up
• 11:43
  there forever. And then as we go to Bitcoin
• 11:45
  conferences like Bitcoin 2023, we were just at, we're going to
• 11:48
  be heading to Pacific Bitcoin. There's going to be limited
• 11:51
  edition plates for each of those conferences.
• 11:52
  So we were also in Prague. So on the website there's that
• 11:56
  Prague limited edition plate. There's probably like 5 left at
• 11:58
  this point. And then the Pacific Bitcoin
• 12:00
  ones look pretty cool. I'm really excited to unleash
• 12:02
  those and in time we're gonna have the ability for you to
• 12:06
  upload whatever you want onto a plate that is super, super,
• 12:10
  super badass Opti. Could you pull that up so we
• 12:12
  could show it during the culture segment, guys?
• 12:14
  At the time? Thank you Sir.
• 12:16
  At the time of recording, the Bitcoin price is 26,360 sats per
• 12:21
  dollar. 3794 block height 807,838 blocks to having 32,162
• 12:32
  having estimate April 21st, 2024 Total lightning network capacity
• 12:36
  4775 Bitcoin capacity value 125 million U.S. dollars.
• 12:41
  Realize monetary inflation 1.75%.
• 12:45
  The market capitalization of Bitcoin sitting pretty at $513
• 12:49
  billion of the B Bitcoin versus gold market cap 4.01%.
• 12:58
  All right, all that being said, I have a clip from Tucker
• 13:00
  Carlson. This was before the Javier Malee
• 13:04
  interview. He described the issue of Fiat
• 13:08
  money in one minute and I don't think it was.
• 13:11
  I don't think it's ever been described so accurately and so
• 13:16
  well. We have to separate money from
• 13:18
  state. This is what the peaceful
• 13:19
  Bitcoin revolution is all about. Anyways, I'm going to play you
• 13:22
  guys the tick the the the clip from Tucker on X.
• 13:27
  Politicians. Money is power.
• 13:29
  They always crave more. But because they don't actually
• 13:32
  produce anything, they've got limited ways to get it.
• 13:36
  They can hike taxes on the population and collect the cash
• 13:38
  at gunpoint. That's the most straightforward
• 13:40
  way. But it's also highly unpopular.
• 13:43
  Voters don't like paying higher taxes.
• 13:45
  They resent it. So over time, most politicians
• 13:49
  in most places decided it's a lot easier to devalue the
• 13:52
  currency. You keep the tax rate pretty
• 13:54
  much the same. You just print more money.
• 13:57
  At first, most people don't even notice that it's happening.
• 14:00
  The money seems free. This is how the US government
• 14:02
  just paid for the COVID checks. And to warn Ukraine, and pretty
• 14:06
  much everything else that Washington has done for the past
• 14:09
  couple of decades just churn out more dollars.
• 14:12
  You can see why it's a popular strategy.
• 14:15
  But what happens if you keep doing it year after year?
• 14:19
  We really ought to know. So to find out, we flew to
• 14:21
  Argentina. Let's talk about Argentina.
• 14:25
  Argentina inflation hits 124% as cost of living crisis sharpens
• 14:33
  and that of course inevitably leads to people wanting change.
• 14:38
  They see that the current system is not working for them.
• 14:42
  Argentina is a country that has defaulted many, many times and
• 14:47
  the latest, the latest bailout that was given by the I MF the
• 14:51
  Clearly that doesn't work or else they wouldn't continue.
• 14:54
  Following down this path came with the contingency that the
• 14:58
  Argentine government must not they they have to deincentivize
• 15:04
  the adoption of Bitcoin within the country.
• 15:07
  This is the same I MF that said that El Salvador making Bitcoin
• 15:11
  legal tender was going to destabilize the country.
• 15:14
  The exact thing, the exact opposite happened of what the I
• 15:19
  MF predicted in El Salvador. El Salvador was able to pay off
• 15:23
  their debt. El Salvador's GDP and country
• 15:26
  and economy is booming and the bailout that was given to
• 15:31
  Argentina didn't do dog shit. So maybe the problem is the IMF.
• 15:35
  Maybe that's the problem. And if you still don't believe
• 15:38
  me, I highly recommend a book that was written recently by
• 15:42
  Alex Gladstein called Hidden Repression.
• 15:45
  He does a deep dive into all the details, all the things that the
• 15:49
  IMF has done over the years. Maybe the IMF was started with
• 15:53
  good intentions. Maybe you could say that.
• 15:56
  But you could definitely make an argument that it's, you know,
• 15:59
  it's outlived its current need and that I think it's doing more
• 16:02
  harm than good. Maybe you can even make the case
• 16:05
  that it's a it's a system of control more than anything.
• 16:08
  All right, So what happened? 126% inflation.
• 16:12
  People are obviously asking questions.
• 16:14
  This led to an outsider, A libertarian Austrian economist
• 16:19
  who was a goalkeeper and apparently he was in a rock band
• 16:23
  to lead the presidential primary.
• 16:25
  He won by 11 points. He got 33% of the vote compared
• 16:30
  to the The person who is trailing him got 22% of the vote
• 16:35
  and he is poised to win the presidency in October.
• 16:39
  His name is Javier Miley. I highly recommend the interview
• 16:42
  that he did with Tucker last night.
• 16:45
  He did, he said, a lot of the quiet parts out loud.
• 16:48
  Now what was so crazy about this interview is the amount of
• 16:53
  traction that it got just within the last literally 10 minutes
• 17:00
  that we started this. When I pulled this up, it had
• 17:03
  332 million views. Just within a couple of minutes,
• 17:07
  it's at 336 million views. Just to give you guys A-frame of
• 17:14
  reference, Tucker Carlson's average episode on Tucker
• 17:17
  Carlson Tonight got 3.5 million. Joe Rogan, the most popular
• 17:23
  broadcaster in the world, gets an average of 11,000,000 views
• 17:28
  and listens per episode. This is sitting at 336.7 million
• 17:36
  views and I believe it went viral for the same reason that
• 17:41
  Richmond, north of Richmond went viral.
• 17:44
  People are finally understanding that something is wrong with the
• 17:48
  current system. Why they working two jobs?
• 17:51
  Why do they constantly have to work harder Now Argentina,
• 17:55
  unlike the West, when you're dealing with 126% inflation, you
• 18:01
  have a lot more you you have the necessity to find an alternative
• 18:05
  immediately. This went absolutely viral.
• 18:10
  And you know, if you compare this to the Tucker Carlson
• 18:16
  interview that he did with Donald Trump, that was happening
• 18:21
  at the same time as the presidential, the Republican
• 18:25
  presidential debate that was happening on Fox News, that
• 18:28
  interview with Donald Trump got 230 million views.
• 18:32
  This completely annihilated that I got 100 million more views.
• 18:38
  So this is definitely something that is on people's minds.
• 18:41
  People are definitely asking questions and they're asking the
• 18:44
  most important question what is money or what is going on?
• 18:48
  Here is Sailor chiming in to the clip that I played you guys in
• 18:53
  in relation to Tucker identifying the problem and
• 18:57
  Michael Saylor, the Chad Sailor says himself.
• 18:59
  Tucker travels far to discover why we need Bitcoin.
• 19:04
  And that leads me to the last point, which is all roads will
• 19:07
  inevitably lead to Bitcoin. Bitcoin is the only solution to
• 19:12
  this problem. No one should have the privilege
• 19:16
  of being able to create money for free that another human
• 19:20
  being has to work for. Here's our own Rustin, head of
• 19:24
  news that simply Bitcoin. He's dropping some fire clips as
• 19:28
  of late and I think he hits the nail on the head with this
• 19:30
  tweet. Is it a coincidence that US's
• 19:33
  favorite reporter is the most libertarian of anyone on
• 19:36
  mainstream media and loves Bitcoin and sound money
• 19:39
  principles? Also can't be a coincidence that
• 19:41
  Argentina is about to elect their Ron Paul and Javier Meli
• 19:46
  team. Bitcoin stays winning and I
• 19:48
  completely agree. I think Tucker Carlson is
• 19:52
  fundamentally A Bitcoiner, he said on Tucker Carlson Tonight.
• 19:55
  He loves Bitcoin. He's had on Michael Saylor, he's
• 19:58
  had on Mike Max Keiser, he's had on Naive Bukele.
• 20:01
  He's had on Marty Bent. The list goes on and on and on.
• 20:06
  Team Bitcoin stays winning and it stays with winning because
• 20:10
  our incentives are just better. And I think, you know, we
• 20:13
  fundamentally understand, we have the humility to understand
• 20:16
  that no human being should have the ability to create money for
• 20:21
  free. That another human being has to
• 20:23
  work for. And I think as long as that
• 20:26
  system's in place, you have a Society of misaligned
• 20:30
  incentives. If you have a Society of
• 20:32
  misaligned incentives, you have a broken society, right?
• 20:35
  That's the truth. And now what's going to happen
• 20:38
  if this guy wins the presidency and he manages to get his way
• 20:41
  and severely diminish the power of the central bank in Argentina
• 20:45
  and things start to improve? How long, how long is the
• 20:48
  corporate media going to be able to continue to sweep this under
• 20:51
  the rug and say, no, this isn't happening?
• 20:53
  No, our system is continuing to work.
• 20:56
  How long is Opti's ex-girlfriend going to be able to continue to
• 20:59
  lie and say that things are better her way?
• 21:02
  I don't know Opti, that's a question for you my friend.
• 21:06
  Hey well I tried Nico I I did my best bro.
• 21:11
  But anyways and and someone said in the chat as well rumor has it
• 21:15
  is that Tiger Carson is stacking and DC ING chunks at a time.
• 21:21
  So I I think he's doing much more than just talking about the
• 21:25
  problems he is protecting himself and and again obviously
• 21:28
  you know we can't expect him to like.
• 21:30
  Pivot his his, his show to just be like a simply Bitcoin show,
• 21:34
  like that's why we're here. But it is very interesting to
• 21:37
  see that after having conversations with like who was
• 21:41
  it like Bukale Max and Stacy and all the other Bitcoin and
• 21:46
  Michael Saylor. Like it's it kind of goes into
• 21:50
  the thesis of like you just gotta get a few touches.
• 21:52
  And you if you hear it, if you hear the signal correctly, then
• 21:56
  you're obviously going to become a a bitcoiner.
• 21:58
  And we've been saying this for a long time on the show and now
• 22:02
  what Tucker's saying, it sounds a lot like what we say here.
• 22:06
  Obviously he's a little more eloquent because he's got his
• 22:08
  teleprompter there and he's able to, you know, perfect what he's
• 22:12
  going to say on the show. But the Bitcoin signal is very
• 22:16
  obviously going mainstream and I'm I'm really wondering.
• 22:21
  Because we talked about this all week that it's not left versus
• 22:24
  right, it's orange versus green. And I'm and I'm, I'm really
• 22:27
  wondering how many people out there are going to basically
• 22:30
  discount what Tucker said. Because they think it's coming
• 22:33
  from the right when it's like this is all of our problems here
• 22:36
  is we're all getting poor and we it's just been exposed and and
• 22:39
  and I wanna I wanna interject there and say like dude like
• 22:44
  that that was one of the things I didn't like about the
• 22:46
  interview that was one of the things I didn't like bothered.
• 22:48
  It was, it was extremely divisive like you, you can't
• 22:52
  deny what what what he said. Javier Malee the the
• 22:55
  presidential candidate last night was not divisive.
• 22:58
  It was extremely divisive. Like he he made it definitely
• 23:01
  right verse left and I think that.
• 23:04
  Platform, right. Yeah, I know.
• 23:06
  But it was like, it's like it, you know, Bitcoin is inclusive.
• 23:09
  It like that's just a reality where it works for everyone
• 23:12
  equally, right? It's it's the currency of
• 23:14
  freedom and prosperity and peace and I guess if you stand on the
• 23:19
  other side of that, you're really on the side of of
• 23:22
  slavery. Like it's as simple as that.
• 23:24
  I don't think it's a right and left thing and that's the only
• 23:27
  thing that I would say about Javier Meli versus Nayembu Kale.
• 23:30
  Cuz Naymbu Kale doesn't go into the right and left stuff, he
• 23:33
  just does it. So anyways, I that's the only
• 23:37
  thing that I would say could be better but it's what you said
• 23:40
  Opti, it's his platform and sorry.
• 23:42
  Yeah, yeah, now, yeah, no worries.
• 23:43
  And I mean just to the Argentina point and and me lay, apparently
• 23:47
  that's how you say it, Nico. They're trolling us in the chat
• 23:49
  that we can't ever say his name correctly.
• 23:51
  It just goes to show that something we say all the time on
• 23:54
  the show, like people need to feel the pain.
• 23:56
  And once you feel the pain, the problem becomes very clear and
• 23:59
  very obvious. And so Argentina, and hopefully,
• 24:03
  you know, the average person out there is looking for
• 24:05
  alternatives. Yes, they're probably gonna go
• 24:07
  to the dollar first, just cuz that's inevitably what everyone
• 24:10
  does is, you know, your Fiat currency's trash, they go to a
• 24:12
  stronger one and then eventually they'll get to to Bitcoin.
• 24:15
  But it really just goes to show that independent content
• 24:18
  creators are the real voice out there and the power of
• 24:22
  independent content creators. And there's people in the chat
• 24:24
  wondering if if. Tucker really got all those
• 24:27
  views and it's not just bots besides the point.
• 24:30
  They're getting more views than corporate press right now.
• 24:33
  And so like don't discount the power you have by your social
• 24:37
  media and and it kind of goes into what I was saying
• 24:39
  yesterday, you know, like continue to propagate the
• 24:42
  positivity out there and spread the good message versus just you
• 24:45
  know being a doom scroller and and black pilled Bitcoin are out
• 24:50
  there. We are winning and everyone is
• 24:52
  waking up to the Bitcoin signal anyways.
• 24:54
  James, I see you're you're biting at the tooth to jump in.
• 24:57
  What's up? What's your thoughts?
• 24:58
  Yeah, I had a chance to see that Malay interview last night and
• 25:03
  even talkers show the night prior to touching upon
• 25:06
  Argentina's economical issues. And you know, a lot of what that
• 25:11
  guy's saying is the quiet stuff, a lot of things that people are
• 25:14
  thinking, it's just nice to see. Somebody finally saying it and
• 25:18
  the amount of views that video is getting shows that it's
• 25:20
  getting out there, right? People are seeing this.
• 25:22
  It's not getting lost in other noise when it's posted as memes
• 25:26
  on social media and what not. And as far as left, first right
• 25:33
  goes, I think left first right in a way that orange versus
• 25:37
  green fight is being fought alongside it.
• 25:39
  Maybe for some of the same reasons, Bitcoin solves a lot of
• 25:42
  the problems in Argentina. And the more left and right
• 25:46
  fight with each other, the, you know, harder is to come to a
• 25:49
  solution. And I think Bitcoin is a major
• 25:51
  solution for the problems that are going on in that country.
• 25:55
  And you just look back on, you know, I think Malay showed what
• 26:00
  the country once looked like and show an example of one of the
• 26:02
  theaters there, how beautiful it once looked when the country
• 26:05
  was. You know, in a much better
• 26:08
  economical state and you just see the degradation of
• 26:11
  everything around them over time and everything looks concrete,
• 26:15
  you know, communist sort of looking environment where
• 26:18
  there's no love or creativity poured into anything because,
• 26:21
  you know, people aren't really passionate about what they're
• 26:23
  doing there. People are poor.
• 26:26
  They they only have so much money to build these things so.
• 26:30
  You know, like I said, a lot of what Malay is saying, stuff that
• 26:33
  resonates well with me, I'm sure well with a lot of people in
• 26:37
  America. I think that's why it's, you
• 26:39
  know, doing as well as it is. There's a lot of issues.
• 26:43
  You know, we're we're on, I I think we're on a very similar
• 26:45
  path to where they're at now. They're kind of at the end of
• 26:48
  what you know. The problematic economy, they're
• 26:53
  they're, you know, seeing, you know, we're we're maybe in the
• 26:55
  middle of it. So it's very important for us to
• 26:57
  pay attention to what's being said there to see what's going
• 27:00
  on there as well. And then even more insidious is
• 27:03
  I think in prior to Malay's interview with Talker of the
• 27:06
  episode he had on the night before, he was showing how WAPA
• 27:09
  Washington Post was slamming Malay for trying to make
• 27:13
  Argentina better. And you just see that, you know
• 27:18
  legacy media is going to. Muddy the waters and, you know,
• 27:23
  make the opposing side think that what they're saying is
• 27:25
  right because they're being lied to by these major news outlets.
• 27:29
  You know, news is being slanted. And then when you have someone
• 27:31
  like Tucker, who's free from Fox right now, you can say what he
• 27:35
  wants and he's doing it on a platform where he's getting a
• 27:38
  ton of views, like 335 million views, To compare it to what Fox
• 27:41
  is doing previously, that's insane.
• 27:42
  It's amazing. And we should be able to
• 27:44
  celebrate that. That word is getting out there.
• 27:46
  It's not being censored. It's not being taken off of
• 27:48
  Facebook. It's on X.
• 27:50
  It's visible. It'll be there for a long time.
• 27:52
  And I'm sure that more episodes are going to come out shedding
• 27:56
  light on these things. And you know, when I think it
• 27:59
  was episode 23 when he called out Washington Post, like that
• 28:01
  was one of my favorite parts right there.
• 28:02
  I would say. I think we need more people
• 28:04
  doing that. There's a lot of noise out
• 28:06
  there. There's a lot of lies being
• 28:08
  spread from what, you know, people think are these major
• 28:11
  news outlets. And I think what he's doing is
• 28:13
  great, 100 percent, 100%. And and this is like the power
• 28:17
  of the Internet, like it's empowered, like Tucker, really.
• 28:21
  Like of course he has this plot, he has this huge following that
• 28:24
  he was able to build off of being on legacy media.
• 28:28
  But fundamentally he's just another Twitter account.
• 28:32
  Like anybody could build a platform these days.
• 28:35
  You know the Internet has given you that that power right to you
• 28:39
  know build your platform and be a be a voice you know and and
• 28:43
  use that power and and it's allowed you know it's allowed
• 28:47
  free thinking it's it's it's it's allowed independent
• 28:50
  thought. And I truly believe, you know
• 28:52
  some people could disagree with me but I I think people
• 28:55
  naturally are attracted to freedom and they're attracted to
• 29:00
  truth. I I I think that fundamentally
• 29:02
  that's what they want, you know, in in totalitarian regimes,
• 29:06
  whether, you know, it was West Germany and East Germany, they
• 29:10
  had to literally build a wall. You know, the people wanted
• 29:13
  freedom. People wanted truth.
• 29:14
  And and you know in the case in Miami, people literally risked
• 29:18
  their lives getting on a raft going from, you know,
• 29:21
  collectivist Cuba to to Miami for freedom.
• 29:25
  And, you know, I think naturally people do that.
• 29:29
  And now the Internet has empowered everybody not only
• 29:32
  with an ability to have a voice and to communicate with millions
• 29:36
  upon millions of people all around the world
• 29:38
  instantaneously, like we're doing right now, but also with
• 29:42
  money as well now too, with Bitcoin, right.
• 29:45
  So for all these, you know, established control systems that
• 29:48
  have been around for decades, they're kind of short circuiting
• 29:50
  a little bit. They don't know what to do,
• 29:52
  right, On the information front and on the money front.
• 29:56
  And you know, that's that's really what we're living through
• 29:59
  the book. The sovereign individual really
• 30:01
  called this, you know, this is the transition to what they call
• 30:04
  information, the information, what's it optious is like
• 30:07
  information technologies like the new era or something, Forget
• 30:11
  the actual name or how they defined it.
• 30:13
  But but yeah, this is what I call personally the
• 30:16
  disintermediation of information and the disintermediation of
• 30:19
  money. And it's kind of all happening
• 30:21
  at the same time. But you know, once we go over
• 30:24
  this hill, I truly believe we're going to be heading into like a
• 30:27
  new renaissance. And I'm really, really excited
• 30:29
  for it. Corey Clifson from Swan calls it
• 30:32
  the bright orange future. I I I really agree.
• 30:35
  And that's why I'm wearing orange glasses right now.
• 30:37
  Just kidding. They're for the blue light.
• 30:40

• 32:37
  All right guys, let's talk about this.
• 32:39
  This is some news that came out and specifically this this was
• 32:44
  this was being pushed by Tom Emmer.
• 32:46
  He is the GOP Majority Whip here in the US and this is a Fox
• 32:51
  Business article GOP takes on Federal Reserve in battle over
• 32:56
  digital dollar As many as 130 countries are exploring digital
• 33:00
  versions of their currencies. 11 countries, including China, have
• 33:04
  fully implemented A CBDC. I'm going to make the case that
• 33:08
  if Tom Emmer and the GOP is truly serious, and this isn't a
• 33:11
  partisan thing, so this should be a Democratic or Democrat
• 33:16
  initiative as well. If they're truly serious about
• 33:19
  fixing the issue of inflation, if they're truly serious about
• 33:23
  battling the Federal Reserve over the digital dollar, they
• 33:26
  would push for the adoption of Bitcoin.
• 33:29
  They would make Bitcoin legal tender.
• 33:31
  Until then, it's all bullshit. Because no matter what parties
• 33:36
  in power, they both benefit from the from the money printer.
• 33:42
  Which is why there's an infamous saying called the Unit Party,
• 33:45
  right? And when they when when Oliver
• 33:48
  Anthony made that song that went viral?
• 33:50
  Richmond north of Richmond. He wasn't talking about Democrat
• 33:54
  Democrats north of Richmond, Republicans north of Richmond.
• 33:57
  He was just talking about Richmond north of Richmond.
• 34:00
  Because I think both parties benefit tremendously from from
• 34:04
  the money printer and I think that's just a reality.
• 34:06
  But anyways, just check out This article goes on to say it has
• 34:09
  been one week since Congress returned from summer recess and
• 34:12
  Republican lawmakers are wasting no time in bringing legislation
• 34:16
  back to the House floor they bought to block a central bank
• 34:19
  digital currency. House Majority Whip Tom Emmer on
• 34:22
  Tuesday and afternoon will reintroduce the Central Bank
• 34:25
  Digital Currency Anti Surveillance Act, a Republican
• 34:28
  backed bill that aims to prevent the Federal Reserve and its
• 34:31
  member banks from issuing a digital version of the dollar
• 34:34
  and using it to implement monetary policy.
• 34:37
  Central bank digital currencies have become increasingly popular
• 34:40
  over the last three years. According to research from the
• 34:42
  think tank Atlantic Council's Geoeconomic Center, as many as
• 34:46
  130 countries, representing 98% of the global economy, are
• 34:51
  exploring digital versions of their currencies. 11 countries,
• 34:55
  including China, have fully implemented ACBDC.
• 34:58
  In China, they are using that CBDC with the Social Credit
• 35:02
  system to incentivize certain behavior.
• 35:05
  So if you're a quote, UN quote bad citizen, if you're speaking
• 35:08
  negatively over you know about the government, they will
• 35:12
  literally take money out of your account like that boom, you
• 35:16
  know. And of course that incentivizes
• 35:18
  people to be slaves essentially. So look, if the GOP, if, if, if
• 35:23
  the Democrats, if anyone is truly, you know, interested in,
• 35:27
  you know, fighting the Federal Reserve and you got to adopt
• 35:31
  Bitcoin. Like, I'm not hyper.
• 35:33
  I'm not being hyperbolic when I say Bitcoin or slavery, that's
• 35:36
  it's not a hyperbolic statement. And I asked beauty on about this
• 35:40
  at Bit Block Boom and he corrected me.
• 35:42
  He said no, Nico, it's not Bitcoin or slavery.
• 35:45
  It's Bitcoin or death, right. And I think that, you know, and
• 35:48
  again, that beauty on, beauty on isn't the one to make, you know,
• 35:52
  jokes about that kind of stuff. He was dead serious.
• 35:56
  So here is a one minute, 42 second clip from the press
• 36:00
  conference. I'm going to play it and then
• 36:01
  we'll talk about it. Thank you, Elise.
• 36:04
  Good morning. Hope you all had a successful
• 36:07
  and restful August. It's going to be back at the
• 36:09
  People's House where House Republicans are ready to
• 36:12
  continue delivering on our promises to the American people.
• 36:16
  One important aspect of our common sense agenda is actually
• 36:20
  protecting Americans financial privacy.
• 36:23
  Particularly when it pertains to this lawless administrative
• 36:26
  state. That's why I reintroduced a bill
• 36:29
  yesterday called the Central Bank Digital Currency Anti
• 36:32
  Surveillance State Act, which puts a check on unelected
• 36:36
  bureaucrats and ensures that the United States digital currency
• 36:40
  policy upholds our values of privacy, individual sovereignty
• 36:44
  and free market competitiveness. Recent actions from the Biden
• 36:48
  administration have made it clear that they are not only
• 36:51
  itching to create a digital dollar, but they're willing to
• 36:54
  trade Americans right to financial privacy for a
• 36:58
  surveillance style CBDC. This bill ensures the future of
• 37:02
  crypto is in the hands of the American people, not the
• 37:06
  administrative state, by prohibiting the Federal Reserve
• 37:09
  from creating a tool with unfettered insight into
• 37:13
  Americans financial data. If not open, permissionless and
• 37:17
  private like cash, a CBDC is nothing more than a CCP style
• 37:23
  surveillance tool that can be weaponized to oppress the
• 37:26
  American way of life. We're not going to let that
• 37:29
  happen, not on House Republicans watch.
• 37:32
  And I want to thank the Financial Services Committee for
• 37:34
  considering our bill this month. And we're going to continue
• 37:37
  working to ensure that the digital economy is designed by
• 37:40
  Americans and emulates American values.
• 37:43
  And I return it. All right.
• 37:45
  Okay. Okay.
• 37:45
  So it's a lot of lot of good talk.

  A lot of, you know, okay. But I have a question for you
• 37:51
  guys. Do you wanna depend on democracy
• 37:54
  or do you wanna depend on yourself?
• 37:57
  That's the question. And mind you, this article is
• 38:01
  100% right. This isn't just happening in the
• 38:04
  United States. This is happening worldwide.
• 38:06
  This is an article we're gonna dive into on Monday's episode,
• 38:10
  but just to give you guys like A-frame, just to set the tone,
• 38:13
  G20 announces plan to impose digital currencies and ID's
• 38:18
  worldwide. Wake the fuck up.
• 38:21
  It is literally Bitcoin or slavery.
• 38:24
  You have to decide as an individual what side of the
• 38:27
  fence you want to be on. Anyways, James, what are you?
• 38:30
  What's your take on all this? Look, it's you can't say this is
• 38:34
  a conspiracy anymore. You can't say this is crazy
• 38:36
  people talking about talking about this insanity on the
• 38:39
  Internet. The Overton window has shifted
• 38:42
  so radically. I think it's because of the
• 38:44
  Tucker stuff. What's going on, All this crazy
• 38:47
  news. You have run a governor, Ron De
• 38:49
  Santis, passing an anti CB and it passed in Florida.
• 38:52
  In Florida there can't be a central bank digital currency.
• 38:55
  So this, this is talk that, you know, bitcoiners were talking
• 38:59
  about in the shadows two years ago.
• 39:02
  Now it's being talked about in the mainstream either by
• 39:05
  politicians or by very, very popular broadcasters.
• 39:08
  They cannot hide in the shadows anymore, James, What's your
• 39:12
  take? Yeah.
• 39:14
  So as far as conspiracy theories go, conspiracy theories have a
• 39:17
  lot of receipts as of late. And this will probably just end
• 39:20
  up being another one of them, in my opinion.
• 39:22
  And you know, you said it right? You say it often, Bitcoin or
• 39:24
  slavery. And I truly think that's what it
• 39:26
  is, because Bitcoin is something that the government, the
• 39:32
  governments want for themselves. They're jealous of it.
• 39:35
  They're kicking and screaming. They're going to come out with
• 39:37
  their CBDC's and those scare the shit out of me.
• 39:41
  I don't want any part of that. But people will jump up and down
• 39:44
  and you don't want that and not realize that they're under
• 39:47
  complete surveillance. Imagine not being able to, you
• 39:50
  know, take a flight somewhere because you said something on X
• 39:53
  that you know someone didn't like and now you're, you know
• 39:56
  your CBDC is locked up and you can't do anything with it.
• 39:59
  So what I like to do is obviously what most other people
• 40:02
  listening or hopefully doing, self costing their Bitcoin.
• 40:05
  I don't even want the exchange having my Bitcoin.
• 40:07
  Forget CBDCI want Bitcoin only. I don't want it on the exchange.
• 40:11
  I want it in my own custody. I want to hold it in my wallet
• 40:14
  so I could send and receive it whenever I want to.
• 40:17
  I don't want anyone telling me what I can and can't do with my
• 40:20
  life savings, with my financial future.
• 40:24
  It's amazing. You could, you know, take 12 to
• 40:25
  24 words with you on a stamp, titanium plate, memorizing your
• 40:29
  head on waterproof paper, whatever you may want, and have
• 40:32
  true freedom. No one could shut you down.
• 40:34
  And with the dollar, you know, it's harder to get shut down,
• 40:38
  right? You could, you could take your
• 40:39
  money out of the bank, keep it under your mattress.
• 40:41
  The government can't come and take it, but it is shrinking
• 40:43
  over time. So that sucks.
• 40:44
  So Bitcoin solves those problems, but the CBDC is scary
• 40:49
  because a lot of people are on the fence of that Bitcoin.
• 40:51
  A little scared to get it might be too technical for them.
• 40:54
  Whatever the case may be, you know adoption isn't, you know,
• 40:57
  100% yet. Those people might see DCBDC's
• 41:00
  as a simple solution. Nice and easy.
• 41:02
  Their banks make it easy for them to get it.
• 41:05
  You know it's accessible, but once they're in, they're not
• 41:08
  going to be able to get out. As time goes on, if those
• 41:11
  become, you know the norm, if that becomes the main currency.
• 41:13
  So best way to fight that is to buy Bitcoin, put in self
• 41:17
  custody, hold your keys, stamp your seat into metal.
• 41:22
  Titanium preferably, and hold your own stuff, you know, don't
• 41:25
  don't worry about, you know, getting shut down and CBDC's are
• 41:29
  eventually going to control people's lives in my opinion and
• 41:32
  should scare everybody. It's not something I want.
• 41:36
  I don't know. I don't know if it helps Bitcoin
• 41:37
  adoption, I can't speak to that. But I think it's, you know, them
• 41:41
  kicking and scribbing and finding their own solution for a
• 41:44
  way to fight Bitcoin and make it their own so. 100 percent, 100%,
• 41:48
  James, I think you said it beautifully, man.
• 41:50
  Opti, what's your take on this? I know, I know This this type of
• 41:53
  stuff riles you up bro. Well I mean I don't know maybe
• 41:57
  maybe I'm just being a little cynical here because you know
• 42:00
  me, I I don't really like politicians first and foremost.
• 42:03
  So that's my caveat before I start ranting.
• 42:05
  And I just really hope that what Emmers saying is not just lip
• 42:09
  service. Because I think you hit the nail
• 42:10
  on the head, Nico, when you said like it's not Republican or
• 42:13
  Democrat because they both benefit from the money printer
• 42:15
  and it doesn't matter what I. Who you are they're still trying
• 42:19
  to print more money for whatever their interests are and so while
• 42:23
  it does sound very good and I agree with everything that Emmer
• 42:25
  said, I I just still, I don't know.
• 42:28
  It's something about it seem fickle but everyone in the chats
• 42:30
  like I think emmer is the real deal and it's it's kind of a
• 42:34
  theme that I've been saying for a while that it really does seem
• 42:37
  like there is a few politicians out there that still.
• 42:41
  Believe in the bowels that they took to uphold and be, you know
• 42:45
  servants to the public. And you know maybe, maybe I'm
• 42:49
  just so cynical and I've been in watching politicians and you
• 42:53
  know, opted out a long time ago that I'm, I'm just like, I don't
• 42:56
  know, I I just can't trust them until further proven otherwise
• 43:01
  because you know, they need that proof of work and as far as I'm
• 43:03
  concerned all politicians to even become a politician, you
• 43:07
  kind of have to get dirty in the mud.
• 43:08
  So it's kind of one of these things of like can't trust.
• 43:11
  But what he said is on point and we've been saying it all the
• 43:14
  time, you know, Cbdc's equal central bank, digital control,
• 43:16
  like never forget it. And the fact that these
• 43:18
  conversations are happening, yeah, it might be lip service.
• 43:22
  But again, the point that we are in time is that people still
• 43:26
  don't understand what's going on.
• 43:27
  They're they're being bombarded with so much signal, so much
• 43:29
  noise, rather that they don't know what's up from down and
• 43:32
  they're getting lost in the bread and circuses and so.
• 43:35
  Just the fact that they're having these conversations I
• 43:37
  think are very important. But again, it's not just about
• 43:39
  talking about it. It's about taking action like
• 43:42
  James is saying, and taking Bitcoin into self custody.
• 43:44
  Being your own bank as the meme goes, you know, being sovereign,
• 43:48
  controlling your own money and and opting out of this madness
• 43:51
  because any money that you leave in the Fiat system enables this
• 43:55
  crazy stuff to happen. And so if you don't agree with
• 43:57
  what they're doing then. Put some of your wealth in the
• 44:00
  Bitcoin, put it in on, you know a seed, a seed, a stamp seed and
• 44:06
  and just like huddle away and and protect yourself.
• 44:10
  Because again, I am very not a fan of politicians and so I have
• 44:16
  taken this upon myself and it's like.
• 44:18
  I don't want to partake in the system, so I've taken as much of
• 44:21
  my wealth out of the system as possible and I never intend to
• 44:24
  go back because these again, Nico.
• 44:26
  I know I'm the crazy one here. I'm the tinfoil hat guy.
• 44:28
  These psychopaths are literally stealing our future by any means
• 44:32
  possible, and it doesn't matter what side of the aisle they are.
• 44:34
  And again, it's orange, verse, green, and as long as they can
• 44:37
  continue to print money. They will continue to steal from
• 44:41
  the future and steal from the average person out there and and
• 44:43
  people just don't understand this and it's so simple.
• 44:45
  It really I don't know sometimes it's frustrating and but hey the
• 44:49
  proof of work well, well is it's in the pudding you know like
• 44:52
  moving forward it's either as we say Bitcoin or slavery or as
• 44:55
  beauty on said you know Bitcoin or death.
• 44:57
  So I don't it seems hyperbolic at this point but I think this
• 45:01
  is where we're going. You know, it's very obvious that
• 45:03
  we're heading towards. An authoritarian dystopian
• 45:06
  future if you don't do anything about it and do something about
• 45:09
  it today by stacking some Bitcoin and taking it into self
• 45:12
  custody like this is the way a. 100 percent, 100% All right
• 45:16
  guys, before we move on to the culture, I want to give a very,
• 45:20
  very special shout out to one of our sponsors, Bitcoin
• 45:23
  Evangelism. The Great Tatum turn up once
• 45:26
  said Bitcoin evangelism is like if the Bitcoin Standard and
• 45:29
  Bitcoin for Dummies had a baby. Have you ever struggled to
• 45:32
  answer your skeptical no Coiners objections?
• 45:34
  Or maybe you answered it perfectly, but they just didn't
• 45:37
  understand what you said. Bitcoin evangelism will equip
• 45:39
  you with an arsenal of simple illustrations to help articulate
• 45:43
  the tenants of Bitcoin to anyone.
• 45:45
  Boomer neighbor? Check on Edna, who's worried
• 45:47
  about Bitcoin being the currency of the Antichrist?
• 45:50
  Check. Annoying dude from work that
• 45:52
  rubs it in your face Anytime the price of Bitcoin is down, check
• 45:56
  What about your crypto friends? Bitcoin Evangelism is the most
• 45:58
  comprehensive Bitcoin only book for the entire altcoin casino
• 46:02
  that will reverse the effects of the crypto brown pill and help
• 46:05
  more people see a bright orange future.
• 46:08
  I literally made it super easy. You could scan the QR code on
• 46:11
  your screen right now. It will take you directly to do
• 46:14
  a Bitcoin to Amazon, where you can get yourself a copy of
• 46:17
  Bitcoin Evangelism, planting seeds for the centralized.
• 46:21
  Revolution. All right, everybody, let's get
• 46:23
  to the culture and talk about the stamp seed, the daily
• 46:29
  culture. Brought to you by Swan
• 46:32

• 46:48
  dollar cost averaging. What are you waiting for?
• 46:51
  Visit swanbitcoin.com today. Did it hit harder with the
• 47:00
  glasses? Don't don't mind me.
• 47:03
  I'm stamping my seed. Let's go all.
• 47:06
  Right. All right.
• 47:08
  That's the new meme right there. Everyone, everyone loves a good
• 47:11
  Bitcoin store and we kind of talked about this in the
• 47:13
  beginning, James, of course, you are the founder of Stamp Seed,
• 47:16
  It's one of our sponsors. We love the product.
• 47:18
  But I really like what what you told us before the show and I
• 47:21
  think it's a good example to show more people that, you know,
• 47:26
  do what you're doing in the Fiat world and you can transition it
• 47:28
  into Bitcoin. So, James.
• 47:30
  How did you get into Bitcoin and why are you running a Bitcoin
• 47:33
  company? Okay.
• 47:34
  Yes. So yeah, it's a good story,
• 47:37
  right? So I got into Bitcoin.
• 47:39
  I'm class of 2017 and I got in that because NGU technology, I
• 47:45
  was into other cryptos at the time, didn't really fully
• 47:47
  understand what Bitcoin was, but that was the time to get in.
• 47:50
  It seemed everyone was talking about it became mainstream,
• 47:53
  right? So Fast forward a few years
• 47:55
  while I'm holding Bitcoin, training it here and there, not
• 47:58
  in self custody, just you know, before it was truly orange
• 48:02
  filled. I'm working as a digital
• 48:05
  advertiser running pay per click advertisements.
• 48:08
  If you're searching something on Google, I am showing you ads
• 48:11
  based on what you're searching for.
• 48:12
  Various needs, various companies, right.
• 48:14
  So what happened was in combing through the search terms you're
• 48:18
  able to see what everyone's looking for.
• 48:19
  And one of the companies I was advertising for sold things like
• 48:22
  this, these metal stamps, this metal stamping hammer to, you
• 48:27
  know, customize jewelry, keepsakes, various things that
• 48:30
  you want to stamp letters into versus engraving.
• 48:33
  You are taverning it with a stamp and going in one by one
• 48:37
  into metal and C tray storage was the main term that kept
• 48:41
  popping up on search rooms for advertising.
• 48:44
  Didn't really know what that was, but it was converting.
• 48:46
  It was leading to sales. So anytime something is leading
• 48:49
  to sales, I followed. So researching more about what
• 48:52
  seed free storage is, I fully understood why it was a need.
• 48:57
  So essentially what happened was as I became Orange building,
• 49:02
  understanding what people are looking for on our edge, what
• 49:05
  they're doing with seed free storage, why they're doing it.
• 49:07
  I was learning it myself and take my own Bitcoin into self
• 49:10
  custody in the year 2020. That's that's when I truly
• 49:13
  became Orangeville, and that's when Sam Seed became founded.
• 49:17
  So essentially turned a Fiat job into a Bitcoin job, which has
• 49:23
  been really cool. It's been a fun, exciting ride,
• 49:26
  and I'm a lot happier for it, enjoying what I do a lot better
• 49:30
  because we're helping people. We're giving people a solution
• 49:33
  to paper that hardware wallet companies might be giving with
• 49:36
  their wallets. Storing your seed phrase on
• 49:38
  paper is a terrible thing to be doing.
• 49:40
  It's you know paper fades. It could be burnt on fire.
• 49:44
  You also the ad that Nico ran earlier in this episode it's
• 49:46
  it's bad. So titanium is all things papers
• 49:48
  not. So essentially as I was learning
• 49:51
  more about Bitcoin, what self custody is putting my Bitcoin in
• 49:54
  self custody Stamp Seed became a company.
• 49:57
  We started with like a 1.0 version of our kit that we sold
• 50:00
  on Amazon under a different brand and figured out how to
• 50:03
  make it an easier process for people because stamping titanium
• 50:06
  is a little bit challenging. But we came out with tools that
• 50:10
  are patented that ensure that it's an easy, simple, quick
• 50:12
  process and that you're not, you know, messing up while doing it.
• 50:16
  You're getting deep impressions that are going to give you a
• 50:18
  long term total scenario. So Fast forward to where we are
• 50:24
  now. Stamp sheet is your full fledge
• 50:26
  company. You can see the website right
• 50:27
  here. We have our 24 word plate, you
• 50:30
  know, commercial great titanium. You can see each letter stamped
• 50:33
  deeply within that plate. And titanium is what we chose
• 50:37
  because it doesn't rust, it's not corrosive, has a very high
• 50:41
  melt point, It's light. We chose the plate that we have.
• 50:45
  It's nice and flat. It has four holes on it, so you
• 50:47
  can mount it under a desk or in a wall.
• 50:49
  You know, it's very discreet. Wanted to make sure it was, you
• 50:53
  know, discreet, easy to hide. And then you know another thing
• 50:56
  about to make sure we're doing is you're stamping the full 8
• 50:58
  letters, up to 8 letters into the plate and they're stamped
• 51:00
  deeply in the plate. It's all one solid piece.
• 51:01
  There's no loose screws that are varying materials that might
• 51:05
  melt. While the titanium won't melt,
• 51:07
  it's all titanium, the whole unit.
• 51:10
  And so I have a question for you, James, because a lot of
• 51:12
  people like, you know, I think people's understanding of
• 51:15
  titanium is from the movies where it's like this spaceship
• 51:19
  is made of titanium. They're like, Oh my God, it must
• 51:21
  be. It must be fucking strong as
• 51:23
  shit. So how much stronger is titanium
• 51:26
  to compare? Let's say steel.
• 51:28
  That's the other popular metal that you see a lot of other
• 51:31
  companies use, Yeah. So I would say they have they're
• 51:34
  they're pretty similar in terms of strength.
• 51:36
  Obviously steel is a great metal that's used a lot in industry
• 51:39
  and a lot of things we use today, but it's a little.
• 51:42
  Bit. So it's not a shit coin.
• 51:43
  Steel is not a shit coin. No, I wouldn't say steel's
• 51:46
  steel's a shit coin. But you know, steel can rust
• 51:49
  over time. It's not always 100% not
• 51:52
  corrosive, depending on what type of steel used.
• 51:53
  Titanium is not corrosive. It's a little bit lighter than
• 51:57
  the steel. The grade of titanium that we
• 51:59
  chose after going through all the different grades that are
• 52:02
  available was the easiest one to stamp deeply in.
• 52:04
  So that matters too. Like if you're stamping on a
• 52:06
  super hard piece of steel and you're just scratching the
• 52:09
  surface, not getting a deep impression.
• 52:10
  You know, like you see here, what happens when it, you know
• 52:14
  it gets crushed and lands on concrete and gets scratched on
• 52:16
  the concrete, you know your words are going to be gone.
• 52:19
  So we wanted to make sure you're getting very deep impressions
• 52:22
  like the ones you could see here.
• 52:23
  I'll turn on the angle so you can kind of get it, but the
• 52:26
  steel isn't a bad option. I like titanium better for that
• 52:30
  non corrosive, non rust reason and it's also just a little bit
• 52:33
  easier to stamp as well. And then Speaking of like how we
• 52:37
  made things easier to stamp from the 1.0 version of the kit, the
• 52:39
  2.0 version of the kit, This is our flagship product right here
• 52:44
  on the screen. This is the stamping jig.
• 52:46
  So it has a steel base at the bottom and it has a slot right
• 52:49
  there. You just slide your plate into
• 52:51
  the jig and, you know, bring up one of the rows that you're
• 52:55
  stamping into the window. And then there's these eight
• 52:57
  lines per cell that you utilize with one of your metal stamps.
• 53:02
  Each stamp has a little line on the bottom there too.
• 53:05
  So you just line up that line with one of the lines in the jig
• 53:08
  and you get like nice even impressions that are nice and
• 53:11
  eat in a row like the ones you see here versus trying to do it
• 53:14
  freehand. Again, like I want to make it
• 53:16
  the easiest process as possible. Prevent typos, prevent anything
• 53:20
  from being stamped backwards, which is why all of our stamps
• 53:23
  have our logo on the side. This way you know to have that
• 53:26
  logo facing you. This way your M isn't being
• 53:29
  stamped as a W The biggest thing is I I want the people have a
• 53:32
  pleasant experience while doing this and not mess up because
• 53:35
  messing up on a titanium plate isn't fun.
• 53:37
  You know you have to go through the whole process all over
• 53:39
  again, buy another plate. So making it simple and easy is,
• 53:43
  is what we do when you we're innovating constantly.
• 53:46
  We have a lot of new products in the pipe.
• 53:48
  I see on the screen you're showing some of the custom laser
• 53:51
  plates that we offer. So we have the ability to, on
• 53:53
  the back of the plate put these various designs.
• 53:57
  We have some on the website for the Bitcoin Pro conference is on
• 54:01
  the website as well. We're going to be going to
• 54:03
  Pacific Bitcoin and doing a plate for that as well.
• 54:05
  So all these conferences we're going to will be doing something
• 54:08
  to commemorate that moment there.
• 54:10
  And those are going to be limited edition, like that proc
• 54:12
  plate. There's probably 5 left.
• 54:13
  I would say at this point. Once it's gone, it's gone.
• 54:15
  We're not going to make any more.
• 54:17
  And then we're going to have the ability within a few months, I'd
• 54:20
  say, hopefully around the holidays, for you to send a
• 54:23
  custom design that you can upload on a plate.
• 54:25
  Say you want to put a meme on the back of it or you want to
• 54:27
  put maybe a nice landscape of, you know, a nice scenery.
• 54:30
  And then you could kind of have this plate hiding in plain
• 54:32
  sight, maybe in a picture frame or on your wall, something to
• 54:35
  make it look a little more discrete, really.
• 54:36
  You have that whole blank canvas on the back.
• 54:39
  Maybe you want to put a QR code on it.
• 54:40
  Whatever you want. We'll be able to put there
• 54:42
  basically a picture of somebody lays stretch into it with your
• 54:46
  seed words on the other side. A simply Bitcoin logo?
• 54:49
  Yeah, simply bit. We'll get you guys one of those
• 54:52
  all. Right.
• 54:54
  So there's a question. Yeah, a couple questions.
• 54:57
  We have some questions. Yeah, we have some questions in
• 54:59
  the comments. So this is really important for
• 55:02
  Bitcoiners from Rave Elevator, he says.
• 55:04
  How do they remove you from purchasing history?
• 55:07
  Do they shred customer orders? After a few months and this
• 55:10
  question I'm assuming comes from I think Coin Kite does it and
• 55:14
  I'm pretty sure Foundation does it as well where you know they
• 55:16
  keep the bare minimum amount of information on their customers
• 55:21
  who who's ordering from, from you know, from your business.
• 55:23
  Yeah. So we have we we managed 3
• 55:25
  different websites. So we're we've been in Econ for
• 55:27
  10 plus years. So our systems roll in place for
• 55:30
  maximum privacy and we we don't take any information that we do
• 55:34
  not require and we get rid of all the information that we are
• 55:37
  not meant to hold on to. So we're not keeping anything on
• 55:40
  you guys. We have multiple websites in
• 55:42
  ecom that are very safe, have all the security protocols in
• 55:46
  place and are properly managed. And we we thought about putting
• 55:50
  verbiage about on that on the website in the footer somewhere.
• 55:53
  So it's something we could ask add to the bottom, but rest
• 55:57
  assured your your information data safe with us.
• 55:59
  You can always check out as a guest as well.
• 56:01
  We've had, we have discreet shipping too, so you know it's
• 56:04
  not gonna say stampsy when it gets shipped, just throw that
• 56:06
  out there. But you could check out as a
• 56:08
  guest, use a different name or something like that if you feel
• 56:11
  more comfortable. But there is a certain amount of
• 56:13
  information we do have to take in to process orders, but we're
• 56:16
  not holding on to that information.
• 56:18
  Absolutely. All right.
• 56:19
  So we have a question from from John.
• 56:22
  You said can't buy from Germany, is shipping coming to yes.
• 56:27
  So good news on that front, actually developing this week,
• 56:33
  Kopiarro, I'm not sure if you guys are familiar with that
• 56:35
  website, but they're in Germany. They are gonna be a reseller of
• 56:38
  our product. They should have it listed on
• 56:40
  their site by next week. So you're able to buy from
• 56:41
  Kopiarro, which is really cool. They're a really great Bitcoin
• 56:45
  company that we met in Prague. They had a booth set up and you
• 56:48
  can buy a lot of things with Bitcoin on their site and they
• 56:52
  have discrete pickup locations too.
• 56:53
  If you don't want to get shipped to your house, I think they have
• 56:55
  two or three different discrete pickup locations, kiosks and
• 56:58
  whatnot and malls. So kopiro.com will have stamp
• 57:02
  seed as soon as it gets to them and they list it.
• 57:05
  So within a couple weeks and we do ship to the EU, we we
• 57:09
  definitely do that. It's just going to cost a
• 57:12
  little, a little bit of money for you, probably, depending on,
• 57:15
  you know what, what expenses there might be to go and pick it
• 57:18
  up, customs fees and whatnot. But it ships, we ship to
• 57:21
  Australia, we get a lot of orders from Australia with
• 57:23
  people using the Simply code. So you guys must have a lot of
• 57:26
  OSC viewers on your channel. That's been a hotspot for us
• 57:29
  lately, but not much in Germany. We're hoping Kobr helps.
• 57:33
  Awesome. Well, I didn't know that.
• 57:35
  Just. Out of the Aussies out there,
• 57:36
  that's. The Aussies?
• 57:37
  Yeah, that's the Aussie. I didn't even know.
• 57:39
  I didn't even know. But that, man, it's super, super
• 57:43
  cool. I personally use it myself.
• 57:45
  It's freaking awesome. It's made of titanium.
• 57:49
  And one of the things. We have one last question.
• 57:50
  Sorry, Nico. No, no, you cut me off all the
• 57:53
  time. James Fine, did you?
• 57:55
  Choose titanium because you knew the new iPhone was going to be
• 57:58
  Titanium as well. Is this is this what you
• 58:00
  marketers do behind the scenes? You guys are scheming.
• 58:03
  Yeah, pretty much. They're they're topping our
• 58:05
  style. I'm going to stamp my T phrase
• 58:07
  on my phone now, but no, I mean, if anything, this might make
• 58:11
  things more expensive for us now.
• 58:12
  You Apple hitting on the word titanium.
• 58:14
  So we're gonna have to figure out a way to fight them off,
• 58:17
  but. All right, let's give it a shot.
• 58:19
  Here we go, Stamp SEAT integration with the new iPhones
• 58:25
  so. Go ahead, go ahead.
• 58:27
  Sorry, no, no, I was just saying full stamp seat integration with
• 58:30
  the new iPhones, maybe we can make a plate that will fit in
• 58:32
  the phone case or something like that.
• 58:34
  We got one question before Nika jumps in, Planet Earth says.
• 58:37
  Are those 3 eighth inch stamp kits?
• 58:41
  The stamp itself is 2 1/2 millimeters.
• 58:45
  Stamps typically go by the millimeter size, so you can do
• 58:47
  that conversion quick. It's a 2.5 millimeter stamp.
• 58:51
  A very common stamp size is 3 millimeters, so it's very close
• 58:54
  to that. You could, you could kind of,
• 58:55
  you know, assume it's a three almost.
• 58:58
  Sweet, sweet, sweet. All right, Nico.
• 59:00
  Platform's all yours. No, no, it's all good.
• 59:02
  I had everything. Are we gonna review some memes?
• 59:07
  We are gonna review some memes, but anyways that James Last
• 59:10
  words on the product if you want.
• 59:12
  Before we go into the memes, is there anything that you missed?
• 59:16
  No, I don't think there's anything I missed.
• 59:17
  Of course you go to the website, check out on the product
• 59:20
  listing, you can see a video of the product in use, how to do
• 59:22
  it. It's 100% DIY solution.
• 59:25
  Once you have the kit, you own the kit.
• 59:27
  If you get a new wallet, new set of seed words, you can just buy
• 59:30
  another plate, load it in your kit, stamp it.
• 59:33
  If you have friends who are bitcoiners, they could go and
• 59:35
  buy a plate, You could lend them your kit to borrow or use that
• 59:37
  need UPS. It really comes in handy.
• 59:40
  We built it that you know, so it's made that way.
• 59:42
  And then the kit. Also you'll notice on the
• 59:44
  website there's a couple different configurations to buy
• 59:46
  it. The configuration that's on that
• 59:48
  QR code at the bottom of the screen is the full mega kit that
• 59:50
  has everything you need. It has the hammer and it also
• 59:54
  has this extra steel block. And this extra steel block helps
• 59:57
  you. You put it under the jig and you
• 59:58
  get a deeper impression. You won't need this.
• 1:00:00
  If you have like a really good workbench that you're or really
• 1:00:04
  good set up a sturdy table or using a thick cutting board, you
• 1:00:07
  won't need that. But people like it because it
• 1:00:08
  makes life easier. And of course the hammer.
• 1:00:10
  You know this hammer is meant for metal stamping.
• 1:00:13
  It was designed with impress, our leader.
• 1:00:15
  Metal stamping, shorter handle so you have a more controlled
• 1:00:17
  swing top, heavy head, brass tip.
• 1:00:21
  It's all dented up brass tips, so a steel tip would bounce off
• 1:00:24
  the top. A brass just drives deeper in so
• 1:00:26
  you're getting a deeper impression, Deeper impression
• 1:00:28
  the better. So you could use your own claw
• 1:00:29
  hammer like a regular household thing.
• 1:00:31
  It's going to be a little more challenging, but you know the
• 1:00:34
  options there for you to buy it without the hammer if you know
• 1:00:36
  you want to stack more sets and not get the big mega kit.
• 1:00:39
  That's awesome man. That is that is really, really,
• 1:00:42
  it's super, super cool. What I what I like about it is
• 1:00:45
  is that that. The kit itself is forever,
• 1:00:50
  right? It's really the like, for
• 1:00:52
  whatever reason, right? Like if you wanna, you don't do
• 1:00:55
  this very often, but let's say you know, you wanna make a brand
• 1:00:59
  new seed phrase. You're just buying the plates,
• 1:01:01
  you're not necessarily buying the kit, The kit is already
• 1:01:04
  yours. So yeah, man, it's and that's
• 1:01:06
  very different. Like a lot of the other
• 1:01:07
  products, you just have to buy. You know you have to buy it
• 1:01:10
  every time. Where this you can just buy the
• 1:01:12
  the, the little what are they? The plates.
• 1:01:15
  The plates, yeah, they're they're 28 bucks a pop.
• 1:01:18
  You can buy a three pack for like 5% off at the five pack for
• 1:01:21
  10% off. Most people get those 5 packs.
• 1:01:24
  But yeah, it's it's really easy. And then once you have the metal
• 1:01:27
  stamps and the hammer, you could do a lot with that, You know,
• 1:01:29
  you could buy metal blank pieces and stamp other things.
• 1:01:32
  You could stamp other passwords on other pieces of metal or you
• 1:01:35
  know the side of our plate actually has these two sidelines
• 1:01:39
  that you can see on the left and right.
• 1:01:42
  So what you can do is you turn it sideways, put it through your
• 1:01:44
  jig and you can stamp additional information like on that
• 1:01:46
  sideline. While configuration, you could
• 1:01:49
  get a set of lower case stamps and stamp your Noster key.
• 1:01:53
  We have more and more customers who are stamping their Noster
• 1:01:55
  private keys on the back of our plates.
• 1:01:59
  We're gonna be coming out with a solution for that though to make
• 1:02:01
  it look a little more legit for you guys cuz you know stamping
• 1:02:04
  your nose key is important too. Another decentralized social
• 1:02:06
  media. You know it's you can't put your
• 1:02:09
  you don't wanna put your password on electronic device.
• 1:02:11
  We're writing on paper for the same reasons you don't wanna put
• 1:02:14
  your Bitcoin C phrase in those spaces.
• 1:02:15
  You have a very valuable Noster account that you don't want
• 1:02:17
  anyone else getting a hold of and becoming open source.
• 1:02:21
  You could stamp your seat into metal as well.
• 1:02:23
  So hell yeah, good stuff coming out.
• 1:02:25
  We'll stamp see you in the next couple of months, or if not
• 1:02:27
  2024, so be on the lookout I'm excited for.
• 1:02:29
  You super, super, super badass. All right, guys, let's review
• 1:02:33
  some memes. We got a lot of memes to review.
• 1:02:35

  I've upgraded my relaxation level.
• 1:03:09
  And now my eyes are just, you know, they're they feel really
• 1:03:13
  good. They feel really good.
• 1:03:14
  This is like, this is a level above what I was, what I was
• 1:03:19
  previously relaxing. But because it is the meme
• 1:03:22
  review, I'm going to go ultimate relax mode, all right?
• 1:03:25
  And I'm in ultimate relaxation. My eyes feel amazing right now.
• 1:03:29
  All right. I'll think of those.
• 1:03:31
  Go to the side. Hold on, go to the side.
• 1:03:33
  All right, there we go. Wow, look at you.
• 1:03:36
  But you. Understand bro.
• 1:03:37
  Like my eyes right now are just like there's a rise under there
• 1:03:42
  getting burnt. That, you know, that could be
• 1:03:44
  it. Oh my God, Too much light coming
• 1:03:48
  in this. This feels good.
• 1:03:50
  Feels good. This is the review where you
• 1:03:54
  guys send us memes. Tag us memes on Twitter, Simply
• 1:03:57
  Bitcoin TV or my personal account optimist fields.
• 1:04:00
  Or drop them in our telegram group T dot me slash simply
• 1:04:02
  Bitcoin tweet to the bullets memes of the artillery.
• 1:04:05
  As you can tell, we are in an information war and it's upon
• 1:04:08
  every single one of us to spread the signal and set the ideas of
• 1:04:12
  freedom money, plant the seeds so that more people wake up to
• 1:04:15
  Bitcoin. And on that note, this first one
• 1:04:17
  is a screenshot. And you know, I usually try to
• 1:04:19
  do pictures and stuff, but sometimes some tweets and some
• 1:04:22
  screenshots really are just memes in themselves.
• 1:04:26
  Anyways, we got this screenshot and shouts out to Bitcoin Isaiah
• 1:04:28
  for capturing this and he goes. This is honestly a great summary
• 1:04:32
  of Keynesian verse Austrian economics.
• 1:04:34
  And we have this guy, I don't know who he is.
• 1:04:37
  Nick Magdalee, aka at Dollars and Data and he goes hot.
• 1:04:41
  Take some. Inflation is a good thing.
• 1:04:43
  No currency should be able to buy the same basket of goods
• 1:04:45
  over very long time spent through hoarding.
• 1:04:48
  If you want to retain the purchasing power of your money,
• 1:04:50
  it should participate in society via investment.
• 1:04:53
  And then we got Julian Farr here.
• 1:04:55
  And he goes, here's an actual hot take.
• 1:04:57
  Average people shouldn't have to act like hedge fund managers in
• 1:05:00
  order to save their wealth. Hoarding is a Keynesian slur.
• 1:05:05
  Absolute bars, Absolute bars. This is so simplified, we say
• 1:05:10
  this all the time. You should not have to speculate
• 1:05:12
  just to save money. And on that same note, we had
• 1:05:16
  this tweet come out from Zero Hedge about.
• 1:05:20
  Elizabeth Warren calls on Janet Yellen, the shield system from
• 1:05:23
  interest rate risk, and we have the classic, you know, meme of
• 1:05:28
  the kid crying. And they put Elizabeth Warren's
• 1:05:31
  face on it goes, bro, How the fuck do economies work?
• 1:05:36
  It's really blows my mind that the politicians out here.
• 1:05:40
  Either on the one hand, or this incompetent or are still able to
• 1:05:44
  lie so blatantly. And on the same note, we got Big
• 1:05:47
  Sean Harris here and he's just doing a smirk emoji.
• 1:05:50
  And you know, we don't like to make fun of the elderly here,
• 1:05:53
  but what's this guy's name again?
• 1:05:55
  Niko. Mitch McConnell.
• 1:05:56
  Mitch McConnell. It's the it's the one where he
• 1:05:58
  just freezes or, I don't know, is having a seizure on live TV.
• 1:06:01
  Or whatever is going on. I don't know what's happening.
• 1:06:03
  Anyways, we got a Sean Harris. Here goes my girlfriend.
• 1:06:07
  Did you buy Bitcoin again? And me is just like.
• 1:06:09
  Completely frozen, doesn't know what's going on.
• 1:06:11
  Emphasize that we're not making fun of old people, right?
• 1:06:14
  Cuz we're all we are. We are all mortal.
• 1:06:17
  We're all gonna get there one day.
• 1:06:18
  But the question that I have for you guys is, should should
• 1:06:23
  people of that age be in positions of power?
• 1:06:26
  And are they the ones really calling the shots?
• 1:06:29
  That's the question I have for you guys.
• 1:06:31
  Dude, I will double down. We need to get rid of the
• 1:06:34
  geriatric class that are the politicians.
• 1:06:36
  They know what is going. On they become the geriatric
• 1:06:40
  class man. Yeah, but I won't be a
• 1:06:41
  politician in power. Remember in the past were like,
• 1:06:44
  you know, the old people would pass it on to the younger, more
• 1:06:47
  fitter, you know, mentally clear people and they would be the
• 1:06:50
  wisers that you go and advise to like that, you know, hey, I I
• 1:06:55
  love old people, but just not that.
• 1:06:56
  I'm ruling us, OK? You're.
• 1:06:58
  Taking us a deeper whole lot. I don't care.
• 1:07:00
  I I, I said my piece. Whatever.
• 1:07:03
  Anyway, this next meme is by the Bitcoin way and it goes taking
• 1:07:06
  your Bitcoin a friend for a hike be like and then eyes emojis and
• 1:07:09
  it goes, dude, check out these mountains and you see the
• 1:07:11
  mountains in the background. And then every Bitcoin is just
• 1:07:14
  charting the mountains of like, oh man, this bear market
• 1:07:16
  wrecking me. And then we start crying because
• 1:07:19
  we realize how long this long is bear market and how brutal it's
• 1:07:24
  been. And yet.
• 1:07:25
  It just means cheap Sats and we can stack more Bitcoin.
• 1:07:27
  Anyways, this next one is by the BTC therapist shouts out to you
• 1:07:31
  Brony goes become a millionaire today Hashtag BTC.
• 1:07:34
  And we got the classic Chad Girl and Chad Guy meme here.
• 1:07:38
  And we got the, I don't know, the millennial.
• 1:07:41
  Zoomer chick here and she goes, he said he's a millionaire and
• 1:07:45
  we got the trad con wife girl. He goes, wow he's so rich.
• 1:07:49
  And then we have the Bitcoin chads down here.
• 1:07:51
  I just bought .01 BTCI just bought a million sets.
• 1:07:55
  Nice job. You are a millionaire.
• 1:07:57
  What's a millionaire right now? Like $265.
• 1:07:59
  You can be a millionaire today for 265 measly Fiat dollars and
• 1:08:04
  stack a million sets. This next one is by Maxi's club
• 1:08:06
  and it goes 519. Choose and it goes.
• 1:08:09
  No, you're no, no coiner. You have the shouting no corner
• 1:08:13
  that feels threatened by Bitcoin.
• 1:08:14
  We have the sad and silent no corner that almost bought
• 1:08:17
  Bitcoin but didn't buy Bitcoin because it's a scam and it's
• 1:08:19
  dying and I'm so smart because now it's gone up 10,000% and no,
• 1:08:25
  you're violent no corner which sold their Bitcoin and they just
• 1:08:28
  have a, you know, violent streak to them and they just want to
• 1:08:32
  tear everything down. And then we have the crying no
• 1:08:33
  corner that is all in on shit coins and absolutely wrecked.
• 1:08:36
  Do not be any of these people. If you are a no corner, stack
• 1:08:39
  some Bitcoin today and protect yourselves.
• 1:08:41
  And this last one, Niko. I don't know if you've caught
• 1:08:44
  the meme going around, but shouts out the toxicat 27 shouts
• 1:08:48
  out to you, bro. He's always in our telegram
• 1:08:50
  group. We have the classic, you know,
• 1:08:52
  red button superhero meme. It's.
• 1:08:55
  I don't know if you've seen the trend going around.
• 1:08:58
  But this one, it's think about Bitcoin on the one hand and

  the show. Smash that like but and consider

  subscribing if you feel like we provided you value.
• 1:15:10
  But the number one thing you could do to push the peaceful
• 1:15:13
  Bitcoin revolution is share this content.
• 1:15:15
  In fact, share all Bitcoin content.
• 1:15:17
  Don't be exclusive. Be inclusive.
• 1:15:19
  Don't share. Share coin content.
• 1:15:21
  That's counterproductive. I'm Nico, your host is my cohost

  Don't have to explain to your grandchildren why you lost your
• 1:16:04
  Bitcoin, cuz you put it on paper passing along this instead,
