• 0:12
  Yo welcome to another episode of Simply Bitcoin live or your
• 0:16
  number one source for the peaceful Bitcoin revolution of
• 0:19
  the car breaking news culture, medic Warfare.
• 0:20
  We will be your guide through the separation of money and
• 0:24
  state very excited. It's it's the Monday show.
• 0:28
  Also guys keep in mind on simply Bitcoin, we bring on all
• 0:33
  bitcoiners from the biggest names that everyday Bitcoin or
• 0:35
  if you want to come on the show, shoot us a DM on Twitter and
• 0:40
  we'll book you in. So it's going to be an
• 0:42
  interesting show. The mempool is completely
• 0:45
  slammed, a lot of bitcoiners have some feelings about that.
• 0:50
  Absolutely Bonkers but I think the signal right and I think
• 0:55
  that this is going to Spur more Innovation on second layer
• 1:01
  Solutions, one of which is the lightning Network and it's not
• 1:05
  just me hypothesizing this by Nance out of all the exchanges,
• 1:11
  right? The number one, altcoin Casino,
• 1:15
  it's the first two minutes so I can't curse.
• 1:19
  They basically said look, we're going to we're freezing
• 1:22
  withdraws due to bitcoin congestion.
• 1:24
  Yeah. But, but yeah, we, you know,
• 1:30
  we're looking into adding the lightning Network, which I think
• 1:34
  is a no-brainer. So, you know, if you take if you
• 1:38
  take into account what exchanges have said, Said that there are
• 1:42
  other adding lightning. We had Brian Armstrong of
• 1:45
  coinbase. He mentioned it.
• 1:47
  We have a due to Pierre. Richard's effort, we have
• 1:49
  crackin who added lightning. We know that coin has lightning
• 1:55
  as well. So I mean, look, all roads leads
• 2:00
  in this direction, the beauty of this, is that the bigger the
• 2:03
  exchange that adds lightning capability.
• 2:07
  The market forces are basically going to push everyone else to
• 2:11
  add Capability as well. So we're going to talk a little
• 2:14
  bit about why the men pool is filled.
• 2:18
  Holy cow. Do people have opinions on
• 2:20
  ordinals? That is definitely a hot button
• 2:23
  issue in Bitcoin right now I take the more libertarian
• 2:27
  free-market approach. If you want to set your money on
• 2:31
  fire on fake art or what you would consider real art, you
• 2:35
  know, that's your opinion, you're perfectly entitled to do
• 2:37
  that, you know, let let the free market.
• 2:41
  Do what the free market does. I think it is a day?
• 2:44
  It is a dangerous road. When you kind of go down the
• 2:47
  path of basically getting to dictate what Bitcoin transaction
• 2:52
  is allowed and what Bitcoin transaction isn't allowed.
• 2:55
  So, you know, let the cards fall where they may and I think that
• 3:02
  and I was saying this, I said this on, why are we bullish on
• 3:04
  Friday with the episode that I did with btz sessions, David
• 3:08
  Bailey and Jason Meyer? Meyer, I think that's how you
• 3:12
  pronounce his last name. He's the author of the
• 3:15
  progressive case for Bitcoin. And I said this, I'm like look
• 3:18
  like If we're going to pay a hundred dollar fees if that's in
• 3:24
  in an inevitability like so be it as long as Bitcoin stays
• 3:29
  decentralized. And that's something that a lot
• 3:31
  of people don't talk about, right?
• 3:34
  If you if you make the blocks bigger, you increase the
• 3:37
  resource requirements for the average, everyday person to run
• 3:41
  Bitcoin, you know, run a node or run it on your computer.
• 3:45
  And if you increase the resource requirements, you inevitably the
• 3:49
  Unintended consequence of that is centralization because most
• 3:53
  people will they will Outsource that and they'll use a server to
• 3:57
  do that. So they'll use Amazon web
• 3:58
  services, that use Google. The use Oracle, right?
• 4:02
  You don't want that. That's, that's not to
• 4:04
  centralization that's centralization, right?
• 4:07
  So I'd be wary, I may keep the block size as is, I would even
• 4:13
  say make it smaller so that more people could run their own node.
• 4:18
  But, you know, Who Am I, who am I to say that?
• 4:21
  I'm just a simple Bitcoin Ur. Anyways, everybody before we
• 4:24
  start the show and I bring up my awesome co-host.
• 4:26
  Always optimistic how you doing Opti?
• 4:29
  How much, how much coffee have you had this morning?
• 4:32
  Honestly, no lie. Guys, I probably drank too much.
• 4:36
  I think I drink a whole cult pot of coffee to myself this morning
• 4:39
  but I've been up early. I've been up way too early today
• 4:42
  so I think I'm just about to you know, taper perfectly into the
• 4:46
  show and not have the Jitter he's on on camera.
• 4:49
  Ah, but hey, man, it's good to be here.
• 4:51
  Got a lot of rest. I think I kind of folks netted
• 4:54
  on Cinco de Mayo. I did a little golfing.
• 4:55
  As you can see, I'm getting trolled.
• 4:57
  In the chat already, I don't know how to golf but, you know,
• 4:59
  I'm trying. We're learning over here, but
• 5:02
  yeah, man, I've been watching the mental all week and it's
• 5:05
  absolutely bananas. I was blowing.
• 5:07
  I was blown away yesterday. I was, it was absolutely insane.
• 5:11
  I'm still, you know, a once at Maxi over here.
• 5:15
  And I dude, I did not want to part with sad, and I'm pretty
• 5:19
  sure Drop a few transactions caught up in the mempool that I
• 5:22
  should probably bump the fees on, but hey, I'm hoping I'm
• 5:25
  hoping that, you know, I get a reasonable reasonable fee on
• 5:29
  these transaction, but hey, I might have to bump my fees guys,
• 5:32
  but it's gonna get crazy. Got up to like, 500 SATs this
• 5:35
  weekend or even today. I think, I think I saw this
• 5:37
  morning that high as well. So absolute Madness.
• 5:40
  Hey, I don't tell their fees, just guide them on.

  The Bitcoin numbers brought to you by novel.
• 7:09
  At this point, you should be running your own Bitcoin note.

• 7:20
  comfort of your own home. And if your digital Nomad, you

  communicate through Twitter, but it's something about being in
• 8:19
  person with your friends that is you can't replace that through
• 8:23
  the internet, right? I really recommend you do the
• 8:25
  program image in terms of speakers they announced Robert F
• 8:28
  Kennedy, Junior presidential He's currently in second place.
• 8:33
  Trilling, Joe Biden. So there's a nonzero chance.
• 8:36
  We will have a pro Bitcoin president in the White House and
• 8:41
  anti Central Bank. Digital currency president in
• 8:43
  the White House in 2024, two, nonzero chance, and, that makes
• 8:47
  me incredibly bullish. We have Michael Lewis, he's the
• 8:49
  author of The Big Short. Moneyball, of course, the Chad,
• 8:52
  sailor. Arthur Hays.

  capacity value, 150 million. U.s. dollars the realized
• 9:53
  monetary inflation rate is 1.75 percent and the market
• 9:57
  capitalization currently of Bitcoin.
• 9:59
  It's at Forty billion dollars in the grand scheme of things.
• 10:04
  Bitcoin is still a baby Anika before you go on.
• 10:08
  I think we're going to have to add fees per block at this
• 10:11
  point, dude. Just just to keep not.
• 10:14
  Yeah, that everything got, you know, what?
• 10:17
  I know Odell is very strong with his predictions about the
• 10:21
  mempool not not clearing. Actually, I can because I think
• 10:25
  it's gonna clear. Look, Bitcoin has been in this
• 10:28
  position, so I'm not quite like this.
• 10:30
  Okay. I have to be fair.
• 10:32
  This one is a little crazy but you know you are also speaking
• 10:37
  to someone who's cheering on bring on the hundred dollar
• 10:40
  transactions. Right?
• 10:41
  Anyway so I just turned to me stir.
• 10:44
  I'm sure you got your bitcoiners.
• 10:46
  You guys know who this man is has done incredible work for
• 10:49
  Bitcoin and it's interesting he's talking about Xavier Emily.
• 10:54
  Who is currently the FrontRunner for the Argentinian presidential
• 11:00
  election, right? Right?
• 11:01
  So you have a country whose currently enduring 104 percent
• 11:04
  inflation, a country who got bailed out by the IMF and one of
• 11:09
  the Clauses was, hey, hey, you know, you have to will give you
• 11:15
  these SDR, it's of which you can print out a thin air.
• 11:18
  We will bail you out but you must be incentivize the adoption
• 11:21
  of Bitcoin. Obviously that doesn't work
• 11:23
  because Bitcoins incentives. Stay winning.
• 11:25
  He did this great thread. Basically you know explaining
• 11:30
  Who this guy is, and I just want to go through it.
• 11:32
  I really, really enjoyed it. When I read this over the
• 11:34
  weekend, it says a pro. Bitcoin candidate is leading the
• 11:37
  polls in. Argentina are recent Bitcoin
• 11:40
  reports speculated on exactly. This says they he says quote a
• 11:44
  similar Dynamic is playing out in Latin America.
• 11:46
  Argentina is Central Bank recently ran out of dollars in
• 11:49
  the country. Once more is veering towards
• 11:51
  hyperinflation well it's next president run on a pro Bitcoin
• 11:54
  ticket other countries in the region have noticed how
• 11:57
  Salvador's vocal Bitcoin stank has unnerved.
• 12:00
  IMF and some Elites are considering Bitcoin adoption as
• 12:03
  a way to Garner, more political Independence on the
• 12:05
  international stage for example in Guatemala, Costa Rica,
• 12:09
  Nicaragua and Colombia. So like the and and again this
• 12:14
  isn't just happening in Argentina.
• 12:16
  This is happening in the US as well as why I mentioned Robert F
• 12:20
  Kennedy jr. Rhonda Sanchez came out with
• 12:22
  another video bashing Central Bank, digital currencies of
• 12:26
  which I have the clip for you guys to check it out.
• 12:30
  Have a successful economy if every aspect of it ends up being
• 12:33
  politicized. And so we said that's not going
• 12:36
  to work for our pension system in the State of Florida.
• 12:39
  It's not going to work for credit ratings and we're not
• 12:42
  going to let them impose social credit scores on Floridians.
• 12:46
  So that their ability to obtain credit is somehow related to
• 12:50
  whether they're Towing and ideological line.
• 12:53
  Florida. Also LED and saying, you know,
• 12:55
  we do not recognize, it's not there yet, but they want to do
• 12:59
  it. Central Bank, digital currency,
• 13:01
  you want them being able to monitor every single
• 13:04
  transaction, you make as a citizen.
• 13:06
  I know, I don't want that. So I mean, we talk about the
• 13:11
  Bitcoin, Echo chamber lat, right?
• 13:14
  And, you know, they're not quite there.
• 13:16
  I mean, maybe have your Miley the presidential candidate in
• 13:19
  Argentina, he's like there's Bitcoin.
• 13:21
  Okay. And the and the central bank
• 13:23
  after that, but I always say this, right?
• 13:25
  Like all roads lead to bitcoin, right?
• 13:28
  Like you Identify Central Bank is the problem.
• 13:32
  You identify that Central Bank, digital currencies are going to
• 13:34
  lead inevitably to totalitarianism, look at China,
• 13:38
  right? And then they're like, no we
• 13:40
  won't do. I love how the, you know, opt
• 13:43
  he's ex-girlfriend frames it right?
• 13:45
  Like will allow a bit of privacy you know like if it's under a
• 13:49
  certain amount like we won't check your transaction and it's
• 13:52
  like, you know, like a guy has a gun to your head and it's like
• 13:56
  look, I will not use that gun metaphorically, of course.
• 14:00
  If you know, like, you do everything right?
• 14:03
  And it's like, but history has shown that governments time and
• 14:07
  time again. If you give them the power, they
• 14:10
  will abuse that power in order to protect their political Mo.
• 14:15
  Like they do it over and over and over and over and over
• 14:18
  again. So, like, it comes to a point
• 14:20
  where like, what is the definition of insanity trying
• 14:22
  the same thing and expecting different results?
• 14:25
  Like maybe it's true, maybe it's a crazy idea.
• 14:28
  Maybe it's time to try something different.
• 14:29
  Front. But the thing is that this this
• 14:32
  time that we're trying something different, you know, for the
• 14:35
  political class, that get a tremendous amount of power from
• 14:40
  being able, basically, to issue money for free, and then they'll
• 14:43
  say like, know, the feds independent look every single
• 14:47
  time. Congress is like, hey, you know,
• 14:51
  we're passing this bill trillion dollar deficit, doesn't matter
• 14:55
  if the FED foots the bill. Every time they just print the
• 14:57
  money, they create out of thin air.
• 14:59
  Right? So it's like, what?
• 15:01
  Like yeah. It's independent and dependent
• 15:02
  my ass anyways. So here is the current election,
• 15:09
  you know, poles? Right in this guy's actually
• 15:13
  leading the races. This is nuts, right?
• 15:16
  This is nuts. And it keep in mind like I love
• 15:19
  El Salvador. I think El Salvador is the beach
• 15:21
  at the beachhead for all this. I think 19 bouquet is doing is
• 15:26
  so freaking important, but Argentina is a massive country,
• 15:34
  right? So like if literally sky does
• 15:37
  not mess around, this is maleeh posing in front of the Gadsden
• 15:43
  flag, which are rated it originated in 1775 for audio
• 15:46
  listeners. It's the yellow flag to says,
• 15:48
  don't tread on me. The professor, says he decided
• 15:51
  to pursue your pursue a career in economics when he experienced
• 15:54
  hyperinflation at the age of 12. It's interesting too.
• 15:58
  Because honestly there, Is there is an I read about the day wrote
• 16:02
  about this incidental 21. There is a series of events that
• 16:06
  the 2008 financial crisis, really affected my family
• 16:10
  economically. And I think that really kind of
• 16:14
  unsettled me and maybe I I did not trust the system.
• 16:19
  So you know again it's like when people endure pain they start
• 16:24
  asking questions. Anyways he goes on to say here's
• 16:27
  advice reporting on my Lee's plan.
• 16:29
  Stabilize Argentina's economy, the paper struggles to place his
• 16:33
  philosophy saying, quote, he's been compared to Donald Trump,
• 16:37
  but in a version of that, unlike the u.s. president doesn't
• 16:40
  defend protectionism. And I do Dan honestly, bro, I
• 16:43
  like, if Xavier, malisse, a Libertarian, right?
• 16:47
  Which I am myself, right? Anyways, it goes on to say as
• 16:50
  inflation rages around the world.
• 16:52
  People begin to clamor for sound politically neutral money.
• 16:56
  What's Happening Here in Latin America today at goes desires
• 16:59
  from um post WWII Europe. Here's another quote from our
• 17:04
  Bitcoin report says quote, we consider it.
• 17:08
  This is a quote from Charles de Gaulle.
• 17:10
  He was a huge political figure during World War 2, when, when
• 17:17
  the Nazis invaded France and he was not part of the Vici
• 17:23
  government. He, he fled the country and when
• 17:28
  France was liberated, He became the first president.
• 17:31
  So Charles de Gaulle is a huge deal.
• 17:33
  The international airport in Paris or the old one is named
• 17:37
  after this, man. So this guy's a huge deal in
• 17:39
  France. And he goes on to say, the
• 17:41
  quote, we consider it necessary that International Trade be
• 17:44
  established, as it was the case before the great misfortunes of
• 17:47
  the world on an indisputable monetary base.
• 17:51
  And one that and one that does not bear the mark of any
• 17:54
  particular country. And I'll ask you guys like, who
• 17:58
  do you? What?
• 17:59
  What currency is best suited for that because if it's not, you
• 18:03
  know, separated from State, I think it will inevitably be
• 18:06
  co-opted, right? So, you know, Bitcoin is rules
• 18:09
  without rulers. It doesn't care where you're
• 18:11
  from, doesn't care, whether you're from North Korea, South
• 18:15
  Dakota Montana or Afghanistan, Cuba, right?
• 18:20
  If you can download a Bitcoin wallet and use a Bitcoin wallet,
• 18:25
  Bada-bing bada-boom, right? You can now earn Bitcoin.
• 18:29
  You can now transact with anyone around the world, you don't even
• 18:32
  need an. You don't even need to know
• 18:33
  their name and they you know these these people would like
• 18:36
  you to believe that if you had that type of system the world
• 18:41
  would you know catch on fire spontaneously.
• 18:43
  Right. And I would like to say I think
• 18:45
  they're wrong and I think it's time to try something different.
• 18:49
  I think their system you couldn't you can't tell to
• 18:51
  success maybe it's a success to the very wealthy.
• 18:55
  But the lower and middle classes that are the people that pay the
• 18:59
  price for inflation because they don't have the means to save an
• 19:03
  assets. Therefore they don't benefit
• 19:04
  from asset inflation. They get poor and this is the
• 19:07
  vast majority of the world like enough is enough.
• 19:10
  It's time to ties. It's time to try something
• 19:12
  different. It's time to try time to try
• 19:15
  Bitcoin and you want to know how I know we're winning.
• 19:19
  Look at how the IMF responded to El Salvador.
• 19:23
  Look at how the IMF bonded to Argentina will bail you out, but
• 19:27
  you have to stop Bitcoin. You have to stop Bitcoin.
• 19:30
  Look at how the United Nations responded to when look at look
• 19:35
  at their calls to action developing nations.
• 19:38
  Like we must stop. We just we must stop the
• 19:42
  adoption of Bitcoin and developing nations because it
• 19:47
  risks those Nations losing monetary sovereignty and then
• 19:51
  you kind of have to ask yourself.
• 19:52
  Like, what does that mean? Like what like Are there they're
• 19:56
  kind of changing the definitions.
• 19:57
  Like what does monetary sovereignty actually mean?
• 19:59
  What is financial stability actually mean because if you use
• 20:03
  your common sense, you'd be like oh it's obviously monetary
• 20:05
  sovereignty. Oh obviously Financial
• 20:08
  stability. No know what they actually mean.
• 20:11
  Is financial stability for them. What they actually mean is
• 20:16
  monetary sovereignty for them as long as they keep control.
• 20:22
  Yeah, it's monetary sovereignty, what I'm advocating.
• 20:24
  In for is what about individuals monetary sovereignty?
• 20:28
  I think that's where we should be going, because clearly there
• 20:32
  system has failed us. It has failed the millennial
• 20:37
  generation, it has failed, the Zoomer generation, we are poorer
• 20:41
  than our parents. If you're under the age of 35,
• 20:44
  you can't own anything. Their own propaganda.
• 20:47
  At this point, the concealing are conference, which I call the
• 20:50
  world economic Forum. They're literally tell you
• 20:53
  they're literally telling you you'll Nothing and be happy.
• 20:56
  And it's like, okay, but who's going to own everything?
• 20:58
  They will. That's what they want, right?
• 21:00
  So, yeah, enough is enough. It's time for a Bitcoin standard
• 21:04
  and I think politicians around the world are waking up to this
• 21:07
  reality. In the United States, at least
• 21:10
  you have the second place for the Republican Presidential
• 21:13
  candidacy. Ron, DeSantis halfway there and
• 21:17
  you have Robert F, Kennedy jr. On the Democratic side.
• 21:20
  Bipartisan, absolutely love it. He's there as well.
• 21:23
  Can't stop this. Thing Bitcoins incentives,
• 21:26
  stayed winning. Get on the train.
• 21:28
  Maybe. Maybe, maybe it's a good idea to
• 21:31
  get some just in case it catches on anyways, Opti, what are your
• 21:34
  thoughts on this? And then we'll pass it on to
• 21:35
  Alyssa. Well first, just on the last
• 21:37
  thing there is no second best. So I mean why are the the
• 21:41
  political candidates that seemingly are endorsing Bitcoin
• 21:44
  are in second place. This doesn't make any sense to
• 21:46
  me, but I think this is something we talked about girl
• 21:49
  for now, I know for now I'm in five years, so be there because
• 21:52
  I let me make my point no beep. Indoors.
• 21:56
  I mean that's that's what I was going to say.
• 21:58
  I think it's something we've been watching lately on the
• 22:01
  show. It does seem like the political
• 22:03
  tide is changing. And and in our Direction now is
• 22:06
  bitcoiners, at least freedom and CBC coined and total
• 22:11
  surveillance of your transactions are becoming a
• 22:13
  point of contention, and obviously maybe not this having
• 22:17
  but the next one we're going to definitely be the center of the
• 22:21
  conversation. So it really Makes me hopeful to
• 22:26
  know that, at least some politician still stand by their
• 22:28
  oath. They took when they got in
• 22:29
  office to uphold the Constitution and the freedoms of
• 22:32
  the people, they represent obviously as of now it is just
• 22:35
  kind of lip service and we'll see what actually happened if
• 22:38
  they do get elected and you know moving forward what will
• 22:41
  actually happen but how do you say his name Meal?
• 22:44
  A what's his name? Miguel a Malay.
• 22:48
  Did you see one of those screenshots you shitting on John
• 22:50
  Maynard Keynes? Like I kind of like this guy I
• 22:52
  think he kind of gets it so But I think I'm not, I haven't fully
• 22:58
  verified this but a lot of people have been kind of telling
• 23:00
  me that he is angling a little more towards dollarization.
• 23:04
  So he's not fully a bit Corner yet but I think he's he gets the
• 23:07
  problem and now it's just up to us bitcoiners to continue to
• 23:11
  push the solution which is guys, it is Bitcoin.
• 23:14
  Bitcoin is the way and obviously having a money that isn't
• 23:19
  controlled by a small. Cabal of people is better for
• 23:21
  most people on planet Earth. It's just part of the signal
• 23:24
  that we're Going to have to continuously beat the drum on.
• 23:27
  Yeah, 100%. Alyssa.
• 23:29
  What's your take on this? Yeah, so I think Opti said it,
• 23:32
  Bitcoin is the solution and I look at these YouTube videos of
• 23:37
  the, all these people that have went to El Salvador and they
• 23:40
  seem so happy, they're living on a Bitcoin standard.
• 23:43
  And I want that for us in America as well.
• 23:46
  I don't see why that can't happen.
• 23:48
  Obviously, the CBC is not the solution.
• 23:51
  We already have the solution, it's just getting it out to
• 23:54
  other people. People in our community, they
• 23:56
  don't know there's an alternative yet.
• 23:59
  Yeah, 100%. It's really about getting that
• 24:01
  getting that message out there and really staying away from the
• 24:06
  left and right dichotomy, the left and right, you know, which
• 24:10
  I really truly believe in my heart.
• 24:13
  It's like this divide and conquer strategy by the elites
• 24:17
  or like they distract you. It's like all your economic.
• 24:20
  Woes are caused by the Republicans.
• 24:22
  All your economic woes are caused by the rats.
• 24:25
  And it's like, it really falls down to us bitcoiners because
• 24:29
  bitcoiners of the Vanguard of this of this movement, right?
• 24:31
  It's like dude it's not left to right?
• 24:35
  It's like it's party Orange versus party green.
• 24:37
  It's the people that want to support people that want to
• 24:40
  force you to use money that steals from you versus the
• 24:44
  people that are advocating for money that not only does it not
• 24:49
  steal from you but it actually increases in purchasing power
• 24:51
  over time, right? And we just got to wake people
• 24:54
  up to this. Reality.
• 24:55
  And the thing is about when the money breaks, you know, as the
• 24:59
  case with Argentina is when people start asking those very
• 25:02
  difficult questions and they say, hey wait a second, like,
• 25:05
  I've heard this before, I've heard this a million times, you
• 25:09
  know, it's try. It's time to try something
• 25:11
  different and the, the, in the fascinating case of El Salvador
• 25:14
  is El Salvador, went through a 30 year Civil War, right?
• 25:20
  So, it got to a point where even nice bouquet Lee's political D.
• 25:24
  It's called my best idea and noisy this which is new ideas,
• 25:28
  right? So it's like we voted for the
• 25:31
  same two political parties and nothing.
• 25:33
  Nothing was fixed. Let's try something new and them
• 25:37
  trying something new. Look at the results, right?
• 25:40
  You have record you have crime at record low levels, you have
• 25:44
  record, GDP growth in my opinion.
• 25:47
  And I'm totally biased about this.
• 25:49
  I think the fact that they they made they adopted a Bitcoin
• 25:53
  standard Word is helping the country in ways of which, we
• 26:00
  can't really quite put our finger on.
• 26:03
  But like the comparison that I would make is You've been here
• 26:07
  for a while. If your new Bitcoin, right?
• 26:11
  Has Bitcoin improved your life since you've moved to a Bitcoin
• 26:14
  standard has Bitcoin improved your life.
• 26:16
  Yes, or no. Now, imagine if a whole country
• 26:19
  goes through that is it a coincidence that that country
• 26:23
  starts achieving a level of peace and prosperity?
• 26:27
  Is that a coincidence? What about on the public company
• 26:31
  front with Michael sailor, right?
• 26:33
  Is it a coincidence that Michael Sailors company?
• 26:36
  Is, you know, outperforming all the tech stocks that SNP 500
• 26:41
  that he adopted a Bitcoin standard is that a coincidence,
• 26:44
  right? These are these are, you know,
• 26:45
  you could say no Nico. That's a totally a coincidence.
• 26:47
  But I'm telling you these coincidences are going to be
• 26:50
  undeniable. When during the next having
• 26:53
  public companies and nation states are going to have no
• 26:56
  choice. But to look at what's happening
• 26:59
  in El Salvador, what's happening with microstrategy and say one
• 27:02
  thing Soto. She said it very very long time
• 27:05
  ago. Maybe it's a good idea to get
• 27:08
  some just in case this thing really does catch on right.
• 27:11
  Anyways, that's my take on that. All right, guys.
• 27:13
  No more delay. Let's jump straight into news.
• 27:15
  We got a lot to talk about this. Check it out.

• 28:22
  We're on a completely different operating system, it they're
• 28:26
  thinking and Fiat terms, right? I'm thinking in Bitcoin terms,
• 28:30
  it's crazy, right? So you start to like you know,
• 28:32
  it's not that you don't relate to them, it's you know, you

• 29:08
  Full of bitcoiners. Not only a city being in Miami,

• 29:25
  I mean, I still do, I still do? But like, yeah, I totally get
• 29:30
  what you're trying to infer when you say that, anyways, alright,
• 29:33
  let's talk about what's happening.
• 29:35
  No. But first, I have to have to
• 29:37
  give a little bit of context because, like, I don't think the
• 29:39
  article really does this Justice.
• 29:42
  This is men put on my God, look at and look at the Red, Bro.
• 29:46
  Okay, like there is for 148 thousand transactions in the
• 29:53
  mental right now. Wait, can you click the last
• 29:55
  block? Nico, which one this one.
• 29:57
  Now that one on the other side of the line this one or this
• 30:00
  one. I don't know what color is it?
• 30:01
  Purple? Or blue.
• 30:02
  Blue. Purple.
• 30:03
  Purple. Okay, click that button.
• 30:05
  Click it. And I scroll down.
• 30:09
  Medium. Get the actual blocks.
• 30:11
  Look at all the like, hover over those little tiny ones, and you
• 30:14
  can see Yeah, there's a someone guys.
• 30:18
  Someone's someone got away with a dollar.
• 30:20
  How'd they do that? Yeah, there's so so many of
• 30:24
  these BRC 20s transactions in. That's crazy.
• 30:28
  You can see on the 546, someone paid, $143 brother, holy crap,
• 30:34
  someone paid $212 someone paid 178 Niko's.
• 30:39
  Dream is coming, true? Okay, bring on its artificial,
• 30:43
  though. It's artificial though.
• 30:45
  It is somewhat You see ya? Yo, 1890, dollars someone played
• 30:54
  in Block fees. This is nuts.
• 30:59
  This is nuts. Anyways.
• 31:00
  All right. So why is this happening?
• 31:01
  I think this decrypt article does a great job at explaining
• 31:06
  it also, not to mention. This is a very contentious
• 31:09
  issue. Right now in the community, a
• 31:11
  lot of people have very strong feelings about it.
• 31:13
  Some people are saying that this is an attack.
• 31:17
  And they. And to be honest with you, like
• 31:18
  the logic behind saying that, I don't think it was very bad
• 31:23
  logic either. So we shall wait and see.
• 31:27
  Anyways, the Bitcoin quadrant of crypto Twitter was abuzz with or
• 31:32
  you could just say Bitcoin Twitter was abuzz with concern
• 31:35
  on Sunday as some users. So high transaction fees and a
• 31:38
  congested backlog of transactions as an attack on
• 31:41
  bitcoin, there are currently over, which is much higher.
• 31:44
  Now there Only over 400, I'll add the new number 488493 didn't
• 31:51
  have been confirmed in Bitcoins men pool, as of this writing
• 31:56
  before, transactions are added to Bitcoins, blockchain
• 31:58
  transactions are sent to the Network's men pool where they
• 32:01
  wait to be selected by a Bitcoin miner and insert it into
• 32:04
  Bitcoins. Next block Bitcoin transaction
• 32:06
  fees were also quite high with high priority transactions,
• 32:09
  commanding a rate of around $26, the two.
• 32:13
  So only only afford Accent own egos.
• 32:16
  Dream comes true. The two metric suggested, the
• 32:19
  Bitcoins network was. And again, I'm not being an
• 32:22
  asshole. When I say this, I just I know
• 32:24
  that if that becomes an eventuality, what that's going
• 32:27
  to do is it's going to Spur Innovation on the lightning
• 32:31
  Network. The likes of which has never
• 32:32
  seen before because it becomes an issue, it becomes a problem,
• 32:36
  right? From my understanding, the birth
• 32:39
  of the lightning network was one of the motivations behind.
• 32:43
  It was Network congestion. In 2017, right?
• 32:48
  So like you know, if you're if you stay complacent, right?
• 32:53
  You have no incentive to change. You have no incentive to
• 32:55
  innovate, right? So I'm so optimistic about
• 33:00
  lightning like a lightning is not a perfect solution, it has
• 33:02
  trade-offs, right? But this spur, this gets the
• 33:05
  brightest Minds in the space and it forces them to try to come up
• 33:10
  with the solution to a real problem, right?
• 33:13
  Because the reality is that what happens?
• 33:16
  If we go to a hundred dollar transaction fees, it kind of
• 33:18
  prices out, a lot of people, right?
• 33:20
  So anyways, so it goes on to say, quote, high transactions.
• 33:26
  Fees are chosen are the chosen pain Point by the attacker,
• 33:29
  probably to make a Bitcoin and usable for small players.
• 33:33
  You know, just something I mentioned earlier, here's
• 33:35
  Frances pouliot and I think this is like one of like the most
• 33:38
  interesting things. So like he posted a meme which I
• 33:41
  think is really worthwhile because it explains it
• 33:43
  perfectly. It's like the old men like Like
• 33:46
  the old Elite men, you have like Ronald Reagan like you know,
• 33:49
  these ex-presidents in there. You guys know the template and
• 33:54
  it says and then we told them quote, it's a free market just
• 33:58
  outbid us, you know? And then here is like the very
• 34:01
  interesting, very interesting, you know, Theory of what an
• 34:09
  attack is. Right?
• 34:10
  So it says, if I was evil, I work for the government.
• 34:12
  Give me 10 million dollars, Bitcoin unusable for months.
• 34:16
  Nobody would know. I just meant an infinite and
• 34:19
  infinite shit coins on BRC 20, call it quote, free market, use
• 34:24
  The bitcoiners Narrative of censorship, resistant, free
• 34:27
  market and permissionless anise against them.
• 34:30
  I mean, you know, and again, I'm telling you, this is good.
• 34:35
  That people are thinking this way because your Thinking from
• 34:38
  an adversarial standpoint like okay, holy crap, you know, think
• 34:42
  of it like, Bitcoins under attack because that's going to
• 34:44
  force. You gonna Force you.
• 34:46
  The inevitable. Consequence of this is it's
• 34:48
  going to force you to try to come up with solutions, to try
• 34:52
  to come up with Innovations. And then, one thing that I also
• 34:55
  mentioned, and I said this on a cafe Bitcoin spaces, Everyone
• 35:02
  was very quick to add Taproot when Taproot was necessary in
• 35:08
  order to add that to to add this new functionality, right?
• 35:12
  We should be very, very wary of asking of changing Bitcoin.
• 35:19
  There's unintended consequences if people foresaw, this would be
• 35:23
  an unintended consequence of adding Taproot.
• 35:25
  I don't think so many people would have jumped on the train
• 35:28
  so quickly, right? So we have to be very, very
• 35:31
  wary. We shouldn't move fast and break
• 35:33
  things. We should move very slowly and
• 35:36
  not break things with this is the base late.
• 35:38
  This is we want Bitcoin to be the base layer of the world,
• 35:43
  right? You want that base layer to be
• 35:45
  functioning and working very, very well.
• 35:48
  Anyways, that's my take on that. So it goes on to say one
• 35:51
  Twitter, user name, Toma 732 pointing out that clogging up
• 35:56
  Bitcoins mempool, mainly benefits miners quote, who have,
• 35:59
  who are having a blast while In the rewards associated with
• 36:03
  higher transaction fees despite what some are labeling an attack
• 36:07
  on bitcoiners. That's right.
• 36:09
  There's it's getting to the point that the current bitcoin
• 36:12
  block, subsidy the block fees are, you're making more and
• 36:17
  block fees than you are making From the Block subsidy which is
• 36:20
  absolutely Bonkers. Absolutely insane.
• 36:23
  The account claimed that it was only a matter of time before
• 36:26
  those flooding Bitcoin mempool with transactions, run out of
• 36:29
  money, making an impact on the network short-lived and I Agree
• 36:32
  with you but also from you have to think from an adversarial
• 36:35
  stand up point of view think about what Francis says.
• 36:38
  And remember that government specifically the US government
• 36:42
  has a money printer. So if it just costs them ten
• 36:45
  million dollars. They they, you know, they print
• 36:50
  Jerome Powell like, doesn't even have to press the P but he could
• 36:52
  think of it and it would just Boop pop out of thin air, right?
• 36:56
  It's not that much money for governments with the money
• 36:59
  printer anyways. So he goes on to say, still
• 37:03
  others attributed, the uptick in transaction fees and Bitcoin
• 37:06
  side, sizable backlogs to ordinals a protocol used for
• 37:09
  minting nft like assets on bitcoin called inscriptions the
• 37:12
  total number of Bitcoin based digital assets.
• 37:15
  Cruised past four point three million on Sunday.
• 37:17
  According to a dune dashboard just last week, inscriptions
• 37:21
  total 2.5 million. So, it literally almost doubled.
• 37:25
  Anyways, and I was talking about the unintended consequences, so,
• 37:28
  and I was saying I'm like, look the unintended consequences are
• 37:31
  Dang, right? Because it forces Innovation at
• 37:33
  forces people's hands Yours by Nance right?
• 37:37
  The largest shit coin casino on planet Earth right now.
• 37:41
  And they tweeted this out over the weekend or maybe on Friday
• 37:44
  or Thursday said we've temporarily closed Bitcoin
• 37:47
  withdraws to the large volume of pending transactions.
• 37:50
  Our team is currently working on a fix and will reopen Bitcoin
• 37:54
  withdrawals as soon as possible. Rest assured funds are safe.
• 37:57
  Ooh, there's a large volume of withdrawal transactions from
• 38:01
  Finance still pending as our set fees.
• 38:03
  Did not anticipate the recent surge in Bitcoin Network, gas
• 38:06
  fees. Our team is working to
• 38:07
  accelerate the confirmation of all pending transactions will
• 38:10
  provide update here goes on to say, we're replacing the pending
• 38:14
  Bitcoin withdrawal transactions with the higher fee, so that
• 38:17
  they get picked up by mining pools.
• 38:18
  We aim to reopen Bitcoin withdrawals in the next hour and
• 38:21
  they goes on to say, Bitcoin withdrawals are now resumed on
• 38:24
  finance, but I think the signal out of all, this is really the
• 38:30
  second to last Our graph, it says to prevent a similar
• 38:33
  recurrence in the future, our fees have been adjusted.
• 38:36
  We will continue to monitor on chain activity and adjust
• 38:38
  accordingly if needed. And I think here's the signal
• 38:42
  out of all this, our team has also been working on enabling
• 38:45
  Bitcoin lightning Network withdraws which will help in
• 38:49
  such situations, right? So again, you know, the fees
• 38:53
  went up and that forced by Nance to add lightning, which is
• 38:58
  interesting, right, because lightning kind of Eels, a lot of
• 39:01
  the narratives, a lot of those shit coins, right?
• 39:04
  It's Bitcoins to slow the coins too expensive.
• 39:07
  Well, you know, again, I think maybe I have an unpopular
• 39:12
  opinion. Yeah.
• 39:15
  So be it, let's bring up a hundred dollar, transaction
• 39:17
  fees. So be it fine because that is
• 39:20
  just going to Spur Innovation, to fix that problem.
• 39:24
  The likes of which have we have never seen before.
• 39:27
  You have, we have some of the brightest Minds in the world.
• 39:32
  You know, looking to solve this problem, looking to solve this
• 39:35
  issue and of course, my money's on them, right?
• 39:38
  So yeah, maybe it is an unpopular opinion.
• 39:41
  Maybe a lot of you guys are like Nico.
• 39:42
  You're an asshole hundred dollar fee.
• 39:44
  Like, what the fuck? Like goddamn elitist.
• 39:47
  What's going on with you? But I would just beg you to just
• 39:50
  look at the bigger picture. Look, look at what happened over
• 39:53
  the weekend, right? This literally got by Nance, the
• 39:57
  evil shit coin, casino to say. We're going to add lightning
• 40:00
  because it No, we're trying to fix this problem, right?
• 40:03
  So, you know and if this didn't happen, do you think they would
• 40:07
  have said something right with the lightning Network?
• 40:11
  Really be here if this wasn't a problem in the first place,
• 40:14
  right? So I want you know, it's good
• 40:18
  when these things happen and maybe that's an unpopular
• 40:20
  opinion. Maybe maybe it's an elitist
• 40:23
  opinion that I that I'm calling for hundred dollar fees and I
• 40:27
  apologize if you think that is but I would ask you to To zoom
• 40:32
  out and look at the bigger picture.
• 40:34
  And I think that all of this is just another stress test of
• 40:37
  Bitcoin. And what doesn't kill the honey
• 40:39
  badger. Makes the honey badger stronger.
• 40:42
  Anyways Opti, what's your take on this and then we'll pass it
• 40:44
  on to Alyssa? Yeah, well, you know, seeing the
• 40:48
  fees above the Box, subsidy just shows that Bitcoin will work
• 40:51
  long-term and I know maybe I kind of do feel like this is
• 40:55
  premature, and it's a little bit, artificial blow on the
• 40:59
  chain. And I know that's a Tension
• 41:01
  stake for some people but it just shows that that Bitcoin
• 41:04
  works and in the fees going up, shows that Bitcoin works as
• 41:07
  well. And while lightning isn't a
• 41:08
  Panacea scaling vertically is the only way we are actually
• 41:12
  going to get, you know, billions and billions of people on the
• 41:15
  Bitcoin Network. You know?
• 41:16
  The shit Corner - oh my seven transactions per second.
• 41:19
  Like guys, we already know this. What's the how finny quote like
• 41:23
  Bitcoin transactions will be a scarce in the future as they are
• 41:26
  today because it'll be high powered money you know
• 41:30
  personally on a Some level while this does feel like an attack.
• 41:32
  It does feel like spam bloating the blockchain.
• 41:36
  Hey like shouts out to the minors, they're getting paid.
• 41:39
  So I'm happy for them. They're making money right now.
• 41:42
  And that's why I kind of mention on the mempool space the visuals
• 41:45
  to kind of. Look at all those little 546 set
• 41:49
  transactions that are paying ridiculous fees.
• 41:52
  Again, we are all rational well rational economic actors here.
• 41:57
  So in time, I think they will get priced out and hey, If
• 42:01
  people want to burn money right now yeah it is going to
• 42:04
  eventually make Bitcoin stronger in the short term.
• 42:07
  I think it's kind of like the standard Bitcoin meme of like
• 42:09
  just zoom out lower your time preference and all that good
• 42:11
  stuff. I really do think that this is
• 42:13
  going to be a fad. It will pass in time but you
• 42:17
  know it's just one of those things.
• 42:19
  Like, are we going to see the mempool?
• 42:21
  Clear again, I think I think we will and it's only going to be a
• 42:25
  matter of time. Personally I kind of got caught
• 42:27
  with my pants down because I closed my lightning node.
• 42:29
  My lightning channel is about a They're so back.
• 42:31
  So, I'm kind of sitting here, like, man, I didn't, I didn't do
• 42:35
  any proper you txo consolidation, proper you to
• 42:38
  excel hygiene because I thought, I had more time and there's just
• 42:41
  a standard Bitcoin mean where it's like, I can do this in a
• 42:44
  couple of days and a couple of months were fine.
• 42:47
  I think everyone is kind of on the same page where it's like.
• 42:50
  Okay. I thought this was going to
• 42:51
  happen later than sooner but hey here we are.
• 42:55
  The time frame has gotten sped up and I think this is just
• 42:59
  something that we have to acknowledge and like you Well,
• 43:01
  okay, personally, I want to see Bitcoin be used for monetary
• 43:04
  transactions and, but, hey, I'm a free market Maxi.
• 43:08
  And if they want to spend money to inscribe or, you know,
• 43:12
  whatever BRC 20 stamp data into the blockchain, like, who am I?
• 43:16
  I'm just a person. I'm going to just have to
• 43:19
  out-compete them with my fees. So you know what, we see one
• 43:22
  step for use again, I really hope so, but we can stay solvent
• 43:26
  a lot longer than they can. Stay deej end.
• 43:28
  And again, I just hope people prepared for this.
• 43:31
  I saw the mat Adele me, my actually I think I put it in the
• 43:33
  meme of you like you did prepare for this, right.
• 43:36
  I think a lot of people didn't prepare for this, but connecting
• 43:39
  this with the finance news, I think lightning is
• 43:43
  non-negotiable moving forward. And I think any exchange that
• 43:46
  doesn't have lightning at this point, is going to kind of have
• 43:48
  to kick that into high gear as we start moving forward, as we
• 43:52
  get into this next Bull Run. I think everyone should have
• 43:55
  some kind of lightning connected to their exchange.
• 43:57
  So that when we do on board the newbies out there, we're Not
• 44:01
  sitting here like, oh yeah, you know, your transaction will take
• 44:03
  whatever and the fees are extremely high.
• 44:06
  But again I think this just shows that the true price of
• 44:08
  freedom is currently or was currently under priced and kind
• 44:13
  of to Niko's point you know maybe the hundred dollar fees
• 44:16
  will be in the long term the true price of transacting freely
• 44:20
  on a decentralized network and that's just something that we're
• 44:23
  all going to have to live with. And then, you know, they'll PSA
• 44:28
  do other shit, coin. D, James out there.
• 44:29
  I know a lightning. Isn't the Panacea, but hey, use
• 44:33
  Liquid. That's like literally what it
• 44:35
  was made for guys like quit spamming my blockchain.
• 44:38
  But again, you know it's not my blockchain.
• 44:40
  I'm just a user of the network. So it's just it's just something
• 44:45
  we're gonna have to move forward to.
• 44:46
  But hey can we all acknowledge that by Nance tweet of them
• 44:49
  talking about the Bitcoin gasps? He's like what is going on
• 44:53
  there? The the Twitter in turn over
• 44:55
  there at by nanotubes to get that.
• 44:59
  I hate. You know what?
• 45:00
  I hate the phrase. Framing where they're like, oh,
• 45:03
  you know, it's Bitcoins congested.
• 45:04
  Like like it kind of infers like, it broke because I
• 45:08
  remember them using, like, very similar language to like, when
• 45:10
  like Solana actually breaks, it's like, no, it's not the
• 45:14
  same, it's not the same, it's not the same.
• 45:17
  But again, I think the Silver Lining to all this is that, you
• 45:20
  know, these uncomfortable situation forces, the market
• 45:23
  forces forces, these players to come up with Solutions and - is
• 45:28
  like, look, we're gonna have to add lightning like that's just a
• 45:31
  he of it, you know, and, you know, it's as uncomfortable as
• 45:34
  it is for us bitcoiners that, you know, are Bitcoin only like
• 45:40
  You know, ask yourself would buy Nance, how could you have ever
• 45:45
  imagined by Nan saying this if they weren't forced to be put in
• 45:50
  this position in the first place, right?
• 45:52
  And I think if you have Kraken, if you have by Nance, it's just
• 45:57
  going to force all the other shit, coin casinos to follow
• 45:59
  suit. It's going to Force Gemini, it's
• 46:01
  going to force coinbase. It's going to force eventually
• 46:05
  Robin Hood. Then of course, all these
• 46:07
  networks do the same and then You know, it starts to become a
• 46:11
  point where Bitcoin is really it is really it's faster.
• 46:16
  Let the lightning is faster and cheaper than any of these shit
• 46:19
  coin Alternatives and all the narratives of like oh no
• 46:23
  everything has to be on the main chain, right?
• 46:26
  Anyways Alyssa what's your take on all this?
• 46:28
  Yeah, so two things one I think focusing on the Bitcoin.
• 46:32
  Only exchanges strikes Juan we don't need these other exchanges
• 46:38
  that are way behind don't even have a Thing in place yet.
• 46:41
  So and then the second thing, running a lightning node so
• 46:46
  Bitcoin only Sactown our meetup group.
• 46:48
  We just had a presentation done by a member on how to run your
• 46:52
  own lightning node or running a node for our group so that we
• 46:55
  can transact with each other. We sold some avocados.
• 46:59
  We had a Bitcoin Merchants sell some mugs to group members and
• 47:03
  it works. Its instant.
• 47:06
  Yeah, 100%. And that's I think that's really
• 47:08
  the signal they write, is that At Bitcoin works, right?
• 47:12
  You know, the lightning network works.
• 47:15
  Anyways, oh boy, I'm excited for the culture.
• 47:19
  But before we get into the culture, guys, I want to give a
• 47:21

• 49:17
  talking about today, brother? Well, we're going to feature
• 49:20
  Alyssa. So let's just start with the
• 49:23
  fact that you are a core organizer to your local Meetup.
• 49:26
  Where can people find your Meetup when do you guys meet up?
• 49:30
  All that good stuff? Yeah, so I'll post it in the
• 49:35
  notes, I guess in the show notes, but yeah, we're just on
• 49:37
  meet up right now. Orange pill, a WE Post our
• 49:40
  events, Twitter, Noster, all of it.
• 49:44
  And then we meet up, at least two or three times a month,
• 49:47
  right now, we're running a coffee meet up and education and
• 49:51
  just like a social, grab a beer, and talk about Bitcoin.
• 49:53
  So we're really trying to grow our community.
• 49:56
  Grassroots, trying to talk to vendors at farmer's markets and
• 50:01
  go around to local businesses, talk about Bitcoin just doing
• 50:05
  what we can. Awesome.
• 50:07
  So on Mita. What do you what do they search
• 50:10
  Sactown? Bitcoin.
• 50:11
  Is that what you call? It Bitcoin only Sactown.
• 50:13
  There's a crypto groups. We had to differentiate
• 50:15
  ourselves. Oh man.
• 50:18
  How many people have have been? At your group lately?
• 50:21
  We usually run about 20, people per event.
• 50:24
  So I know we're missing a lot because I'm like, this is a big
• 50:27
  city, so we just have to reach other people.
• 50:30
  They don't know where we are yet.
• 50:32
  I guess. Love it.
• 50:33
  Well hopefully we can get you some more people there but I
• 50:36
  think. One of the interesting points
• 50:38
  when I did try to search you this morning, I realized you're
• 50:40
  not on Twitter or anything, but I find it interesting that
• 50:43
  you're on Noster. So how do you like Noster and
• 50:45
  you're not on any social media at all myself?
• 50:49
  Yeah, I'm only on Noster. I'm not on any other social
• 50:53
  media personally, not my thing. Wow.
• 50:57
  A unicorn in this day and age. Amazing.
• 51:00
  So how do you like Noster? I like it.
• 51:03
  I'm not on there all the time, just slowly trying.
• 51:06
  To follow more people. I guess it's hard to find the
• 51:09
  public keys for other people to find them, but I think it's
• 51:14
  going to grow and it's going to get easier.
• 51:15
  So yeah, let's start, yeah. All right.
• 51:19
  Well our show I can only guess is mainly guys in the chat and
• 51:24
  there's the running meme in Bitcoin of, we need more women
• 51:27
  in Bitcoin. So, what's your thoughts on this
• 51:29
  Alyssa? Yeah, I think we do have some
• 51:32
  really cool women, Lynn Alden, Natalie Brunell and Just getting
• 51:38
  more of us out into the public eye because I think we do exist
• 51:42
  for sure but no it is very male-dominated right now but I
• 51:47
  don't see why we can't have more women.
• 51:50
  I 100% agree. So have you orange killed your
• 51:53
  friends or do they do they think you're crazy Bitcoin.
• 51:57
  ER, what's going on over there? Yeah, I'm working on it slowly
• 52:01
  but surely and I think it's the fact that letting them know that
• 52:05
  I am a Bitcoin Iran. That's what I'm doing period.
• 52:09
  So they can come to me when they get to the point.
• 52:11
  So they know I'm available. I'm a great resource.
• 52:14
  So I'm trying not to push too hard for some people, tedious.
• 52:19
  I tell everyone all the time. Sometimes, you gotta in set, the
• 52:21
  idea without actually, saying the b word because instantly
• 52:24
  pushes people off, and just like, showing people that there
• 52:27
  is a problem right now. So absolutely love it.
• 52:30
  Let's see what else do we got over here.
• 52:32
  Okay. You got you hit Nico on Noster
• 52:35
  orange pillow. What's your thoughts on building
• 52:39
  your local community and having bitcoiners in real life that you
• 52:42
  can hang out with? Yeah, I think it's great.
• 52:46
  I love meeting up with other bitcoiners in real life.
• 52:50
  I was in Yosemite over the weekend and I messaged a Bitcoin
• 52:53
  or they're on orange pill app so you're going to find them
• 52:57
  everywhere on Orangeville app which is cool.
• 53:00
  And then I think I did message Nico on Noster but yeah and then
• 53:07
  I think the nice thing about orange pill app to is just you
• 53:10
  can meet people anywhere. So I'm going to go to bit block,
• 53:13
  boom, looking forward to it. I hope I can see you guys there,
• 53:17
  and hopefully, we'll be able to message people and make some
• 53:19
  connections to meet up when I'm there as well.
• 53:23
  Yeah, we'll definitely be a bit block.
• 53:25
  Boom. You did tell us.
• 53:28
  I don't know where they got this to Nico, but you are looking for
• 53:31
  a job in Bitcoin. What are you trying to do?
• 53:34
  What else do you have? What's what's the end goal here?
• 53:37
  Yeah. So I actually a shout-out meet
• 53:40
  Mafia, I kind of their I'm interested in that and then
• 53:45
  Texas Slim, So I'm a registered dietician so I'm really
• 53:50
  interested in nutrition preventing chronic diseases so
• 53:54
  and I'd love to just be on a fool, Bitcoin standard, get paid
• 53:57
  in Bitcoin, transaction, Bitcoin, and just be done with
• 54:01
  the US dollar because it doesn't have any value for me
• 54:05
  whatsoever. Wow.
• 54:07
  Absolutely. Love it.
• 54:08
  So, to all the guys in the chat, I'm sure they're wondering.
• 54:11
  Are you a carnivore? No.
• 54:14
  So my Approach is more Whole Foods.
• 54:17
  Meat is a whole food, so it counts, but I think just overall
• 54:21
  Whole Foods, so things that are minimally processed fruits,
• 54:25
  vegetables, nuts, Dairy. Okay.
• 54:29
  Alright. So I don't know, are you taking
• 54:31
  on some customers or you? You need some you have some some
• 54:35
  like courses out there. I'm sure.
• 54:37
  We'll pay you in sad for those. Yeah, and so that's something
• 54:40
  I'm really looking into right now, I am working my Fiat job
• 54:44
  and I would love to get away from it because it is a little
• 54:48
  depressing. I basically try to help people
• 54:50
  with obesity diabetes, chronic kidney disease and hypertension
• 54:55
  daily and the onslaught is never ending and I think Bitcoins
• 55:00
  going to fix the Health Care System long-term.
• 55:02
  But right now the incentives are very broken.
• 55:06
  The industrial food. Food system has really created
• 55:10
  this environment of obesity and this is based on government
• 55:15
  regulations that have allowed this to happen.
• 55:19
  Absolutely amazing. As I think everyone is has a
• 55:22
  huge crush on you and they are asking me if you're single, but
• 55:25
  don't answer that if you don't want to.
• 55:27
  I think it's just them trolling. So man, really, really breath of
• 55:33
  fresh air to have you come on the show, but hey, what would
• 55:36
  you tell the ladies? If there's some girls out there,
• 55:38
  they're Loosely on the edge, they maybe just found the show
• 55:42
  by chance or not fully bitcoind, yet they just kind of have like,
• 55:46
  I don't know, maybe their boyfriends telling them to watch
• 55:48
  the show or whatever, what is your orange pill?
• 55:51
  You know, speech your elevator pitch.
• 55:56
  I think gosh, all right, well you guys get it and I love
• 56:01
  seeing people around my age Millennials.
• 56:03
  I do tell people I know, we're never going to own.
• 56:07
  Anything, there's no comparison to like our grandparents in the
• 56:11
  amount that they were able to own and assets.
• 56:13
  We have these student loans, we have a broken economic system
• 56:18
  that we have been given. And so Bitcoins going to fix
• 56:22
  this and the signal is very strong, it simply Bitcoin.
• 56:25
  And that's why I would even direct women this way.
• 56:28
  Just because all you are going to get is the Bitcoin signal
• 56:31
  here, absolutely love it. Yeah, one of the things that I
• 56:35
  saw in the message this morning and it's something Sell the time
• 56:38
  and Nico kind of gets mad. At me all the time is, spreading
• 56:41
  the Bitcoin propaganda. I just like that message and I'm
• 56:44
  glad that you used it as well. What's your thoughts on
• 56:47
  spreading the fighting fire with fire?
• 56:50
  And, you know, we know the corporate press is giant
• 56:53
  propaganda machine and we just do a little part to spread that
• 56:57
  signal. So I'm glad that you appreciate
• 56:59
  the propaganda. What's your ideas on the?
• 57:02
  Just the message that Bitcoin signal is propaganda yeah, and I
• 57:09
  only like Bitcoin propaganda so But I nutrition-wise, I wanted
• 57:16
  to shout out Opti you are fasting the other week and
• 57:20
  that's kind of one of the things I've been talking about to not
• 57:23
  these crazy fast but just like a nice 12 hour fast.
• 57:27
  Getting back to the basics. Yeah, I mean I normally do
• 57:31
  intermittent fast like that's what I do.
• 57:33
  I I'm pretty much on like oh mad one meal a day but one of my
• 57:36
  friends inspired me. I'm like okay, I'm going to do a
• 57:38
  36-hour fast here. We'll see if I can incorporate
• 57:41
  those more, you know. Generally in my diet, but I'm
• 57:46
  pretty much a carnivore over here.
• 57:47
  It Miss for intermittent fasting.
• 57:50
  Yeah, but they found intermittent fasting.
• 57:53
  Really does improve and prevent chronic diseases, so, it's
• 57:58
  really great that you're doing that for yourself.
• 58:00
  Well, I say it all the time, we got to be fit, mentally,
• 58:03
  physically, and spiritually. Because we are in a monetary war
• 58:06
  and they want you weak poor, not owning anything.
• 58:09
  So, Alyssa continue to spread the signal.
• 58:13
  I hope you get a A coin job. I hope maybe you become your own
• 58:15
  your own Bitcoin boss cuz you're really on the mission and like I
• 58:19
  think everyone, I'm speaking for everyone in the chat, you really
• 58:22
  are one of the unicorns out there not on social media, a
• 58:24
  Bitcoin, ER, and eating healthy kudos to you and chefs out to
• 58:28
  what's it. Bitcoin only Sactown.
• 58:30
  I hope we can get more people there for you.
• 58:32
  Yeah, sounds great. Thanks guys.
• 58:35
  Let's go Nika. Jump in.
• 58:36
  You got a question comment. Yeah, absolutely.
• 58:40
  So, you know Alyssa it's people like you.
• 58:42
  It's is And, you know, of course, we all have to push
• 58:47
  forward right as a group, you know, you know, Fighting For
• 58:51
  Fighting For Freedom fighting to push the peaceful Bitcoin
• 58:53
  Revolution forward. But it, you know, I want to
• 58:57
  highlight the importance of individuals doing this, right?
• 59:00
  And I also want to highlight the fact that you don't need to be a
• 59:04
  content creator. You don't need to be a Twitter
• 59:07
  influencer. You don't need to have a large
• 59:09
  account, I say this all the time, I said this at Bitcoin.
• 59:13
  20:22 every tweet and every meme counts.
• 59:20
  The metaphor I used is, you know, tweet, if tweets are
• 59:22
  bullets memes. Artillery in this narrative.
• 59:25
  Trench warfare that we're fighting on the Battlegrounds of
• 59:27
  the internet and this is an all-encompassing War, right?
• 59:31
  This is an all-encompassing conflict.
• 59:33
  So on every level it seems like Alyssa, you're really focusing
• 59:37
  on the nutritional aspect on the health aspect, but you know what
• 59:41
  bit you mentioned it Bitcoin fixes that?
• 59:43
  Bitcoin, you know, Bitcoin fixes, the incentive structure.
• 59:47
  And what currently is happening is the incentive structure is
• 59:49
  broken, right? So then, there's unintended
• 59:52
  consequences of that incentive structure being broken.
• 59:56
  And I'm just so glad that you not only are trying to put a
• 1:00:01
  Band-Aid over the problem, you're aware of what the cause
• 1:00:05
  of that problem is in the first place.
• 1:00:08
  And I think that if people awake awakened to this reality, you
• 1:00:13
  know, I think Marty bent said it right fix the money, fix the
• 1:00:17
  world, right? And I truly truly believe that
• 1:00:19
  in my heart way to go. Before we move on, can I ask
• 1:00:21
  Alyssa one more question? How did you get orange pill?
• 1:00:24
  So my boyfriend, orange filled me.
• 1:00:26
  He basically started in one Legend gas in the car and I had
• 1:00:30
  no choice but to listen and eventually it started making
• 1:00:33
  sense. Let's go.
• 1:00:35
  I literally, I literally did the same.
• 1:00:37
  I did the same. It's like, I just talked so much
• 1:00:39
  that, you know, it got to a point where like after a couple
• 1:00:42
  years, my girlfriend's like, you know, Okay, I like this Bitcoin
• 1:00:45
  thing, maybe you're just not a crazy insane person but it's
• 1:00:49
  all, you know, this is what it's about, you know, you're not
• 1:00:52
  crazy and it's a, I think we're a little bit crazy, bro.
• 1:00:55
  But I think, you know, all revolutionaries are crazy.
• 1:00:59
  I think at the end of the Flyers, help to, I've been
• 1:01:02
  posting Flyers at the gym hand at the grocery store, just
• 1:01:06
  hoping somebody sees it and it makes sense to them.
• 1:01:10
  Yeah, yeah, 100%. I think he's been more than we
• 1:01:13
  are now. Oh, geez, I know, I know we're
• 1:01:15
  slacking. We got to pick it up.
• 1:01:16

  Get out there like Alyssa and be gorilla to marketers for for the
• 1:04:00
  crazy Bitcoin signal and let's spread Bitcoin, only signal
• 1:04:04
  everywhere. Some more people realize that we
• 1:04:07
  have the solution to the world problem because the money's
• 1:04:09
  broken stupid and we can fix it with Bitcoin anyways.
• 1:04:13
  The first name is my price and Bitcoin and I've been seeing
• 1:04:16
  this this display on short and You know, Tick Tock videos all
• 1:04:23
  over the Internet. And we finally got some some
• 1:04:26
  Bitcoin versions of this. And I really like this one
• 1:04:28
  because I felt this way over the weekend.
• 1:04:32
  Anyways, price in Bitcoin, go our price and BTC on.
• 1:04:35
  Twitter goes Milo's, sat Bitcoin transaction waiting around in
• 1:04:38
  the mempool and here we go. What are you doing?
• 1:04:42
  What are you doing? Me.
• 1:04:52
  Let's go my very low set. Transactions are just hanging
• 1:04:58
  around in the mempool. I have I'm literally have like
• 1:05:01
  three different transactions that are Chillin right now that
• 1:05:04
  aren't going anywhere and I kind of need the money anyways.
• 1:05:06
  Anyways here we go. The next meme, this one is by
• 1:05:09
  Finn j.r. Finn EJ.
• 1:05:12
  And of course, I'm going to just continue to double down on the
• 1:05:18
  SATs and the fees and the ordinal.
• 1:05:20
  All this stuff going over the over the weekend.
• 1:05:22
  Anyways, we got a bell curve here and we got some left side
• 1:05:28
  of the bell curve. Go do ordinal.
• 1:05:30
  People will run out of Bitcoin eventually.
• 1:05:32
  And then we got the mid witsec. Oh my God, the end of TP boy,
• 1:05:35
  killing big home and jpegs at this rate.
• 1:05:37
  Financial transactions will never be able to go through
• 1:05:40
  this. This is going to kill Bitcoin.
• 1:05:42
  What the f? And then we got the right side
• 1:05:45
  of the bell curve because the order know people will run out
• 1:05:48
  of Bitcoin. This too shall pass and
• 1:05:49
  hopefully, Lee, we will get it cleared mempool soon.
• 1:05:52
  Anyways, again, we are beating this horse and we got Odell here
• 1:05:56
  and we got the classic Anakin Skywalker Meme and what's your
• 1:06:00
  name pad me and it goes man, pools are busy fees are high and
• 1:06:04
  patent because you prepared for this, right?
• 1:06:06
  And we got any kid with the smile.
• 1:06:09
  No, you prepare for this, right? I felt this one cuz I thought I
• 1:06:12
  was prepared was not prepared and you know I don't have any
• 1:06:17
  lightning channels open. Yeah, you know it is what it is.
• 1:06:20
  And then again this is what I'm going to feel like when my
• 1:06:23
  transaction finally goes through probably I don't know when I
• 1:06:27
  bumped the fees. Anyway this means my seed signer
• 1:06:30
  and we got a girl Whispering or yeah.
• 1:06:32
  Girl whispering in your ear and goes your transaction is
• 1:06:35
  confirmed and you get the Goosebumps.
• 1:06:37
  This is how I'm going to feel when my transaction finally gets
• 1:06:40
  confirmed or I have to bump my feet.
• 1:06:43
  I don't know. We'll see.
• 1:06:44
  We'll see how low my time. Preference can go out anyways.
• 1:06:47
  Its next game is by Austin Herbert and it goes Bitcoin was
• 1:06:49
  born. The left Bitcoin ization began
• 1:06:52
  on the right now. I think this one might be a
• 1:06:56
  little hopeful, but I'd like to meet unless and we got, you
• 1:06:59
  know, the Great Recession, 2008, all the bank's blowing up when
• 1:07:02
  Bitcoin was born and then we got the line in the middle 2016.
• 1:07:06
  And then today, we have all the recent bank failures, ushering
• 1:07:12
  us into hyper Bitcoin ization, absolutely love it.
• 1:07:15
  And here we go. Mining Bitcoin because Bitcoin
• 1:07:17
  is the money of the future and you can see the future.
• 1:07:20
  Bitcoin. It's going to be a wonderful
• 1:07:22
  world that we can only barely imagine today.
• 1:07:26
  What CK always say we are not smart enough to understand how
• 1:07:30
  hyperventilation will happen and this is the first step moving
• 1:07:34
  forward. So you know, keep thinking out
• 1:07:37
