Transcript
- 0:00With Bitcoin blasting through 120 K like Cam Scatterbo running
- 0:03through somebody's skull, even Bloomberg can't deny that
- 0:06October is here and it's all gas and no brakes.
- 0:09It's. A quick check on crypto prices
- 0:12as we begin the so-called month of October, October with strong
- 0:17gains creators the batting of a rebound after one of the
- 0:20harshest sell offs in months. Cryptocurrencies shed roughly
- 0:24$300 billion last week as a wave of leverage.
- 0:27And here's the kicker. President Trump is considering
- 0:29stimulus checks or taxpayer rebates of 1000 to $2000 for
- 0:34every American household based on the tariff revenue that
- 0:37they've collected. We're not highly levered
- 0:39anymore. Now with that being said, we'll
- 0:41pay back debt, but we all we also might make a distribution
- 0:45to the people almost like a dividend to the people of
- 0:47America. How?
- 0:48Much are you thinking for? That, Sir.
- 0:50Well, we're thinking maybe 1000 to $2000.
- 0:53The last time we got STEMI checks in the mail in 2020,
- 0:56Bitcoin rose from 6K to 58K over the next year, and that $1200
- 1:02stimulus check is now worth over $21,000.
- 1:06Now imagine if October plays out the way that it always does
- 1:09based on historical prices. Statistically speaking, based on
- 1:12previous October's, Bitcoin is going to go from 120K to 138 K
- 1:16before for Halloween. That's not that crazy, $4
- 1:19trillion Asset manager JP Morgan says that Bitcoin should be
- 1:22valued AT165K relative to where gold is valued.
- 1:26October is when Bitcoin reminds the world that it's inevitable.
- 1:28Strap in stimulus checks. October means that the bull run
- 1:32might just be around the corner. This is Dante Coco Bitcoin.
- 1:35Simply, let's go. Donald Trump is proposing 1000
- 1:42to $2000 stimulus checks or taxpayer rebates for every
- 1:46American household based upon the revenue that they've
- 1:48collected from tariffs. And let's rewind the clock in
- 1:51March of 2020, when the first stimulus check started to come
- 1:54out into the economy. Well, bitcoins price was $6500 a
- 1:58coin. By December that year it was
- 2:00$23,000 a coin. By March the following year it
- 2:03was $58,000 a coin. That's not mailbox money.
- 2:06That STEMI check is generational wealth.
- 2:09And this is the part that people don't get every stimulus check
- 2:11every time that there's a bailout, every time that there's
- 2:13a Fed rate cut, every time that money is injected into the
- 2:16system. Here's an opportunity for those
- 2:18who hold real world assets to grow their asset value.
- 2:21There's more money going after scarce assets.
- 2:24And this is what the market is pricing.
- 2:26In October, Bitcoin started the month at around 111 K and
- 2:29blasted through the 100 and 10s. Like Cam Scatabo running through
- 2:33anyone in everyone's face for his squad, Donovan Wilson is
- 2:37unblocked in the hole. Just runs like Bobby Boucher
- 2:42blocking for Derek Wallace and waterboy like Jackson Dart.
- 2:54Bitcoin has no conscious in October literally looking to
- 2:57smack every red candle in the face just for looking at it the
- 3:00wrong way. Yeah, maybe that's not the
- 3:04smartest. With my throwing hand.
- 3:08You know, I didn't really like the way it was looking at.
- 3:09Me. So since 2013, Bitcoin has
- 3:13averaged 20% gains in October and every time that it's green
- 3:17in September, well, it's been up in October.
- 3:20That's not opium, that's not vibes.
- 3:22That's a statistically relevant correlation.
- 3:25So yeah, if it were to go up by 20%, we would see 138 K Bitcoin
- 3:29this month. But what happens when the real
- 3:30bid comes with Fed rate cuts, with STEMI checks, with central
- 3:34banks buying? I mean, we literally have 4
- 3:37point $3 billion of leverage against Bitcoin expiring today.
- 3:41We could see fireworks before even the end of the weekend.
- 3:44And while this is all been going on, Uncle Ray Ray has been
- 3:47yawning. Yeah, a lot of people believe in
- 3:49Bitcoin, but he still doesn't believe in it.
- 3:50He thinks the central banks won't be buying Bitcoin because
- 3:53there's no privacy and it could be hacked or manipulated.
- 3:57Is Bitcoin a legitimate currency to hold in that in that
- 4:01environment? That's a an interesting and not
- 4:06easily answered question. There's a medium of exchange and
- 4:12a store hold of wealth and most importantly this store hold of
- 4:15wealth. So Bitcoin is perceived by many
- 4:22as a money. It is limited in its supply and
- 4:28it has certain transaction benefits very easily all around
- 4:34the world. You can transact and in it.
- 4:36And so it has those elements. I doubt that any central bank
- 4:41will take it on as a reserve currency for because everybody
- 4:47can understand and watch government scan who was doing
- 4:51what transactions on it, government scan.
- 4:53So there's no privacy to it and there is a question of whether
- 4:58the code could be broken or things can be done to make it,
- 5:04let's say, less effective, including, you know, government
- 5:09controls of it. So I can't say exactly how
- 5:13effective it is as a money, but it's being perceived by many as
- 5:20an alternative money. My own approach is I in my share
- 5:25of My Portfolio. I have gold and I have some
- 5:31Bitcoin, but not much. His portfolio, a lot of gold, a
- 5:34little bit of Bitcoin. And Michael Saylor disagrees
- 5:37fundamentally with Ray Dalio saying that we've gone through
- 5:40this in the past. If things were still the same,
- 5:42then gold would still be the dominant form of currency in
- 5:45backing in the world. But it isn't, and he believes
- 5:47that Bitcoin will succeed where gold fails.
- 5:49The reason that you will be able to trust them, it's because you
- 5:54have the option to withdraw your trust, I said.
- 5:58So I look at it as as the great deterrent.
- 6:00If you know, if you think about gold and why gold failed, one
- 6:06reason gold failed is it's so incredibly difficult to custody.
- 6:12And so if you look at in the history of gold in the 20s, you
- 6:16had four great central bankers and the central banker in
- 6:19Germany was shocked and a central banker in the US with
- 6:23Ben Strong. And the world, you know, was
- 6:26substantially on a gold standard.
- 6:28And the Germans had gold and the French had gold and the British
- 6:33had gold, the Americans had gold.
- 6:35But for the most part, the gold was either in London or in New
- 6:38York. You know, the French gold was
- 6:40with the British or the Americans or the German gold was
- 6:42with the American. So there's a famous story where
- 6:45we're shocked travelled to New York City, met with the head of
- 6:49the Fed, Ben Strong. And Ben Strong wanted to show
- 6:51him the German gold took him down into the basement of the
- 6:55New York Fed and they couldn't find the gold.
- 6:59And and of course, the message of the story is this gold is so
- 7:05difficult to custody. Countries couldn't figure out
- 7:09how to, like the entire country of Germany couldn't figure out
- 7:13how to custody their own gold, much less the 100,000 companies
- 7:17in Germany or the 60 million people in Germany.
- 7:20And so the reason gold failed was it was too slow and too
- 7:23difficult to custody, and therefore your property rights
- 7:27were always going to be impaired by a central actor.
- 7:31He's been on this train since 2020, when his company Micro
- 7:34Strategy bought their first $250 million in Bitcoin.
- 7:38And lo and behold, his digital gold thesis since then has been
- 7:41pretty good considering that they now own $77 billion worth
- 7:44of Bitcoin on their balance sheet.
- 7:45And he's not just looking for billions.
- 7:47And his next goal? A trillion dollars in Bitcoin
- 7:50assets. The end game is get to a
- 7:51trillion dollars of collateral growing 30% a year, be issuing
- 7:57$100 billion of credit a year, growing 2030% a year and that
- 8:05credit is yielding 23400 basis points more then all of the real
- 8:14estate back credit, the corporate back credit, the Fiat
- 8:17back credit or any other type of credit instrument in the world.
- 8:21Back to the whole gold and Bitcoin thing.
- 8:23Gold failed, Bitcoin won't, and $4 trillion asset manager JP
- 8:27Morgan believes that Bitcoin is undervalued relative to gold,
- 8:31saying that based upon their volatility ratios and how they
- 8:34correlate together with bitcoins implied volatility to Bitcoin.
- 8:37It says that at a $2.3 trillion market cap, it should rise
- 8:41another 40, 2% to match gold's volatility in value, giving it a
- 8:45theoretical price of 165 K. Bitcoin firms like Vanguard who
- 8:49have historically been very negative on Bitcoin, well, even
- 8:53now they're considering getting in the game as they see other
- 8:55major asset managers in Wall Street firms cashing in on the
- 8:59promise of offering Bitcoin and crypto products to their
- 9:02customers. If you're a Vanguard investor
- 9:04and you want to buy Bitcoin ETF's, you don't want to go to
- 9:06another platform. And nearly every major platform
- 9:09now offers Bitcoin ETF's. So I feel like this is a sign of
- 9:12signs of times, a big shift, but still we're not sure.
- 9:15But when we talked to Vanguard, they said they're listening to
- 9:18clients, they're talking about it.
- 9:19So again, they're opening the window by a little.
- 9:22Yeah. I mean, to me what it sounds
- 9:24like is they saw demand from clients and they want to make
- 9:27sure that clients stay on their platform to do what they want.
- 9:30To ecosystem. Exactly.
- 9:31Is that is that a fair assessment?
- 9:33Eric Voltunas, again, he was the one who I talked to for this
- 9:35story. He said that, you know, if
- 9:36Bitcoin ETFs weren't as successful, we may not be seeing
- 9:39this, but it's so hard to ignore the astounding success.
- 9:42I mean, all together, the cohort has around 142 billion in
- 9:45assets, 80 billion of those is from BlackRock, 20 billion alone
- 9:49came this year. So you don't even see the demand
- 9:51abating. And we with the SEC now you
- 9:53might see more cryptocurrency ETFs to come and to close the
- 9:56door. And that money making big like
- 9:59it's just lavishing capital investors lavishing capital into
- 10:02these ETFs is a big maybe mistake according to some.
- 10:05The floodgates for Bitcoin are happening at all levels.
- 10:08Not just at the digital capital level with companies like
- 10:11MicroStrategy, or at the institutional level with asset
- 10:13managers like JP Morgan and Vanguard recommending it to
- 10:16their clients. But also at the individual
- 10:18level, at the Congress level, with companies like Coinbase
- 10:21urging them to remove capital gains on Bitcoin transactions,
- 10:24opening the doorway for Bitcoin becoming digital money.
- 10:27It's a digital money that's looking to offer freedom to the
- 10:30world. And not only freedom, but just
- 10:32better tools for for businesses and people in general.
- 10:35Mr. Zeiken, do you have anything in particular that you think
- 10:38would do harm if we would put something in legislation?
- 10:41Thank you, Senator. I, I think that my theme is that
- 10:46there's a lot of potential for over reporting.
- 10:47We spend a lot of time on that. Even in this discussion about de
- 10:50minimis and with stablecoins itself, there's an enormous
- 10:53potential. This is a democratized form of
- 10:56financial asset class where people can use things in ways
- 10:59that weren't done before. And there's a tremendous
- 11:02potential there for over reporting and burdening the
- 11:04system. That's burdening the system for
- 11:06taxpayers and it's burdening the system for the IRS.
- 11:08So let's take reporting today. And if you enhance this by over
- 11:12reporting, by not including a de minimis rule, you're going to
- 11:15billions of transactions that taxpayers are going to have to
- 11:18report, keep track of. I don't think most taxpayers are
- 11:21prepared for that result. It'll probably hinder the growth
- 11:23of the industry. But before we go any further
- 11:25into our episode, let's thank our sponsors.
- 11:27Lenin has been the leader in Bitcoin back alone since 2018,
- 11:30issuing over $9 billion worth of loans to 10s of thousands of
- 11:33customers all across the world. And the average time to get Fiat
- 11:36into your account for your Bitcoin collateral is just six
- 11:40hours. The application takes just two
- 11:42minutes. The process is fast, seamless,
- 11:44requires no credit check, and the loan started just 12.5%,
- 11:49about half of what you would get for a credit card.
- 11:51The process is so fast, seamless and simple that they have over
- 11:541005 star customer reviews and they do proof of reserve
- 11:57attestation reports showing you that they have all the Bitcoin
- 12:00that they say that they do fill out an application in just two
- 12:03minutes and get .25% off of your first loan by going to learn dot
- 12:06letting dot AO slash simply Bitcoin.
- 12:09One of the things as we move into this new future, this new
- 12:11digital future, is that you have the ability to remove your
- 12:15digital assets from the system. Bitcoin is the first and only
- 12:18asset that allows you to have full control with a fully
- 12:21digital product. For a lot of people, this isn't
- 12:23very straightforward, and this isn't very intuitive, but
- 12:26Bitcoin does offer you the opportunity to do this.
- 12:28So why not take advantage of it? Well, it's probably because you
- 12:31don't feel comfortable doing it and you don't have to do it
- 12:33alone. Hire a coach the Bitcoin way.
- 12:35They'll pair you with A1 on one mentor to help you remove your
- 12:38Bitcoin from exchanges privately, safely, securely and
- 12:41confidently so you can protect your generational wealth for
- 12:43your children. Go to thebitcoinway.com/simply
- 12:46Bitcoin to get started. While Bitcoin is starting to
- 12:48emerge as a tool for everyday people that you can spend and a
- 12:51tool for freedom around the world, there are certain places
- 12:54that aren't so friendly to this digital freedom thing, like the
- 12:57UK. Your money, your speech, your
- 12:59identity. They want to control think
- 13:01before you post is their mantra. And here's the crazy thing.
- 13:19If you're not in digital media or social media slavery, well,
- 13:22you're probably in financial slavery.
- 13:23There's been a crazy story out there about a Tesla employee who
- 13:27worked there for 12 years that just in order to afford a home
- 13:31had to sell their stock in Tesla and that didn't even pay for the
- 13:34entire home. Listen to this story.
- 13:36I was the first out of five kids to buy my own house.
- 13:40I'm living my dream. This would have not been
- 13:43possible without Tesla stock. Hi, my name is Kyoka Orange.
- 13:47I've been at Tesla for 12 years. I started in plastics
- 13:50department. I worked my way up.
- 13:53I was a production associate and then a team lead and then became
- 13:56a supervisor growing up for me. So there is five of us.
- 14:01We just didn't have it like other kids.
- 14:03We all five US kids used to live in a one of our family friends
- 14:07trailers. We just knew our parents
- 14:08couldn't afford it. So I started at Tesla.
- 14:12I grew with all the opportunities and I was able to
- 14:15start a family on my own. Now I have 4 kids.
- 14:18I bought a Model Y so now we can fit my whole family in one car.
- 14:24We bought our condo, now we bought our house.
- 14:28Tesla stock was able to help us put down a huge down payment for
- 14:33our house about 3/4. Imagine that, Having to
- 14:36liquidate your equity in one of the greatest assets of all time
- 14:40and not even be able to afford a full home just to afford the
- 14:43American dream in a 75% down payment.
- 14:46This is financial slavery. And Bitcoin fixes this.
- 14:50And there's people out there like Joy Reid who think that
- 14:53freedom is scary. Is that if you go back before
- 14:56the 20th century, there were no income taxes, there were no
- 14:59regulations on business. You could earn as much money as
- 15:02you want, leave 100% of it to your children with no taxes.
- 15:05That's the world they want back. And to get it back, they need
- 15:08society to change. They need people to be less
- 15:10modern. They need people to want fewer
- 15:12things. Yes, Joy, I would love to get to
- 15:14a place where we can offer an inheritance to our children's
- 15:17children, where there would be equal weights and measures in
- 15:20money. Right now we pay to Caesar what
- 15:22is Caesar's, but that doesn't mean that we shouldn't fight
- 15:24against the system that Caesar operates in to usher in a new
- 15:27system, better system, a system built on fairness, open
- 15:31transparency in privacy, and we can all partake in it.
- 15:35October is a signpost for that. October is a signpost that
- 15:38Bitcoin is inevitable. The clown world is ending and
- 15:40sound money is being ushered in one October at a time.
- 15:44And this month, if it does what it's done historically well, we
- 15:46could see 138 K Bitcoin. It's just math and averages 250K
- 15:50before the end of the year. It's realistic.
- 15:52And if it does what it did when we got stimulus checks the last
- 15:55time, when it rose from $6500 a coin to $58,000 a well, we're
- 15:59going to see $1 million Bitcoin. Just looking back at what
- 16:02happened in the past, it's absolutely possible that this
- 16:05can happen now. Are you ready for it?
- 16:07This is Dante Coco Bitcoin simply happy stacking.
