Latest / Simply Bitcoin / The Biggest Market Blackout Ever Just EXPOSED Bitcoin Price Manipulation! | Bitcoin Simply
Transcript
- 0:00It's Black Friday, and in America we celebrate things
- 0:03going on sale, just like Texas who celebrated buying the dip,
- 0:06becoming the first state to create a strategic Bitcoin
- 0:09reserve. But this Black Friday also
- 0:11reminds us how dark the existing financial system is.
- 0:14We're experiencing the largest blackout in the history of
- 0:16financial markets with the $1 trillion CME exchange going out
- 0:20because of cooling power issues with their data centers.
- 0:23The blackout confirms with silver bugs that felt for a long
- 0:25time that the price of silver has been manipulated.
- 0:28Ironically, at the same time, when we have blackouts, silver
- 0:31goes up over 4%, breaking $55 an ounce for the first time ever.
- 0:35The current establishment will do whatever it takes to
- 0:38manipulate currencies that aren't theirs to control and.
- 0:41You're wasting your time. So you think when the DOJ calls
- 0:44on up and says that's an illegal currency against the laws in
- 0:46United States and if you do it again we'll put you in jail,
- 0:48it's over. No, no issue.
- 0:50There will be, this is my personal opinion.
- 0:53There will be no real non controlled currency in the
- 0:56world. Silver Bucks breathe a sigh of
- 0:58relief knowing they haven't been crazy all of these years, that
- 1:01JP Morgan was in fact manipulating the silver
- 1:03exchanges. And so while everyone's excited
- 1:05about Texas creating a strategic Bitcoin reserve with a
- 1:07$5,000,000 purchase, it's the 8th largest economy in the
- 1:10world. What's not to like?
- 1:11I'm a little bit more skeptical because they're buying it
- 1:14through ETF's in order for this whole revolution to work.
- 1:17States, corporations, people are going to have to buy the real
- 1:20thing, not some financialized product that's a Bitcoin
- 1:23derivative. Anything else will be
- 1:25manipulated. We've seen this play out.
- 1:27The CME needs to be a wake up call.
- 1:29We need to demand real Bitcoin and real Bitcoin held in cold
- 1:31storage or risk the same thing that's happening to silver
- 1:34happening to Bitcoin. Wake up.
- 1:36This is Dante Coke with Bitcoin. Simply let's go.
- 1:42OK, there's only one right song to celebrate Thanksgiving with,
- 1:45and if this wasn't it, you weren't celebrating properly.
- 1:49I am the chosen 1. Somebody had to do it.
- 1:52Beans. lamp.
- 2:04There were lots of things to be thankful for this week, starting
- 2:07with the announcement that we're likely going to get a new Fed
- 2:10chair named before Christmas. You give us a hint.
- 2:13We often talk about the two Kevins, Kevin Wash and Kevin
- 2:16Hassett being the the front runners.
- 2:18Is that still the case? Andrew, I, I'm still got one
- 2:22interview left. So I, I don't think it would be
- 2:25prudent to get give any hints. And, you know, I think that
- 2:30there's a very good chance that the, the president will make an
- 2:33announcement before Christmas. But you know, it's, it's his
- 2:36prerogative whether it's the before the Christmas holidays in
- 2:40in the New Year's. But think things are moving
- 2:43along very well. Oh, you know what else we could
- 2:46be thankful for? Potentially no income tax.
- 2:49You keep what you make for. The next couple of years, I
- 2:51think we'll substantially be cutting and maybe cutting out
- 2:54completely, but we'll be cutting income tax could be almost
- 2:59completely cutting it because the money we're taking and it's
- 3:01going to be so large. Bit corners have a lot to
- 3:04celebrate as well. What are?
- 3:05You thankful for this Thanksgiving.
- 3:07Well, I'm thankful for the fact that my Turkey.
- 3:10Was. Cheaper than last year because I
- 3:11paid in Bitcoin. Anything you're thankful for?
- 3:15I'm thankful. For Germany selling their coins
- 3:18because I immediately bought them.
- 3:22What about you? Anything you're thankful for?
- 3:24I'm thankful for not needing those dirty cookbooks we call
- 3:27money. What are you thankful for?
- 3:29I'm thankful for having bought the dip.
- 3:32What are you thankful for? I'm thankful for the fact that
- 3:35Craig Wright isn't Satoshi. What are you thankful for?
- 3:39I'm thankful for JP Morgan dumping me.
- 3:41They need me more than I need them.
- 3:48Genius Act strategic Bitcoin reserves all time highs,
- 3:52halvings and more. Speaking of strategic Bitcoin
- 3:55reserve, you can add another thing to be thankful for to the
- 3:57list as Texas became the first state to create a strategic
- 4:00Bitcoin reserve with a $5,000,000 purchase with $10
- 4:04million authorized. But here's the catch, it's not
- 4:06actually Bitcoin that they hold in cold storage or that they
- 4:09have the keys or access to. It's Bitcoin being purchased in
- 4:12the form of ibit. The big money flowing into
- 4:14Bitcoin right now isn't from retail.
- 4:16Bitcoin is actually one of the first revolutions in history
- 4:18where retail front ran Wall Street and now it seems as
- 4:21though Wall Street is caught on and are now going to put their
- 4:24paws and fingers on this asset class.
- 4:26The flows happening in Bitcoin are from the big boys now.
- 4:28In an interview that James from Checkmate did with What Bitcoin
- 4:31Did, he talks about how the massive flows of capital that
- 4:34are coming into Bitcoin are not explained by retail buyers.
- 4:38If it breaks to a new all time high, this is the only way we
- 4:41can really speculate about this stuff.
- 4:43It feels to me like it's gotta be banks and it could be
- 4:46sovereigns because it's in the spot market, which is a
- 4:49strategic position. And the size, the size of it is
- 4:53just extraordinary. And how do we know it's big?
- 4:55Because we saw the selling, the sell sign was massive, like 3
- 4:59billion, $2 billion a day. I'm not bringing that in.
- 5:02I'm talking about being happy with a 5K clip, you know what I
- 5:04mean? So like the average investor is
- 5:07not bringing 10s of billions of dollars a week.
- 5:10They're coming from the banks, the sovereigns, the derivative
- 5:12markets, the futures markets. And this is my concern.
- 5:16When you see what's happening today in the CME futures market,
- 5:19you wonder if this sort of thing could happen to Bitcoin.
- 5:21The CME infrastructure went down for 12 hours because of a
- 5:24cooling issue. This clearly smells like a cyber
- 5:27attack from me. Anyone who's built anything
- 5:29knows that these data centers don't just run on single set of
- 5:31servers. If a set of servers goes down,
- 5:34another set comes up for redundancy.
- 5:36They're called backups. One day data center isn't the
- 5:39only one online, and one data center isn't enough to take down
- 5:41the entire futures market. But something interesting
- 5:43happened when we saw the futures market go down while the price
- 5:47of silver skyrocketed and broke $55 for the first time ever.
- 5:51Ironically, gold also went up over 1%.
- 5:54And what this tells me is the likelihood that silver hasn't
- 5:57been being manipulated every single day by the algos and by
- 6:00these future markets and derivatives that aren't actually
- 6:03silver holdings is highly likely.
- 6:05Even the charts for silver and gold were out during these
- 6:08outages, meaning that there was no real price discovery.
- 6:11But what do you mean there was no real price discovery?
- 6:13I have silver and I want to sell it to you at this price and you
- 6:15have money and you want to buy the silver at this price seems
- 6:18pretty simple, but the market isn't that simple when you have
- 6:21derivatives in all of these other products that are naked
- 6:24shorting the price of silver every single day at the open
- 6:28true price discovery is not allowed to happen.
- 6:30And so although people celebrate that Bitcoin is coming into the
- 6:33financial markets in a big and mainstream way, I disagree with
- 6:37some of the proponents to say that it Bitcoin doesn't care, it
- 6:39doesn't really matter. Like in this clip from Safety,
- 6:42he says that it doesn't truly matter what the financial
- 6:44markets do with Bitcoin. Does it matter the bitcoins
- 6:47moving away from its sort of cipher punk ethos and just.
- 6:50Becoming this massively. Mainstream financial assets.
- 6:54By virtue of what it. Is no, I don't.
- 6:56I don't really see it that way. I think, I think to be honest, a
- 6:59lot of people project too much onto Bitcoin.
- 7:02Ultimately, it's just a bunch of software and anybody can use it
- 7:07in any way that they want. Then anybody can make, you know,
- 7:10it can do of it whatever they want.
- 7:12So it's a tool that people are going to be using.
- 7:15And of course, initially it's a small subset of people that uses
- 7:18it and then they start projecting their values onto it.
- 7:20And then over time they expect it to continue to abide.
- 7:24But over time, if it's a successful technology, it's
- 7:26going to be used by everybody. It's going to be used by small
- 7:29businesses, large businesses, governments, individuals.
- 7:32It's money. Everybody uses money. 8 1/2
- 7:34billion people on earth, they all use money and they're all
- 7:38going to continue to use money. Bitcoin is just the best money.
- 7:41If you have very strong feelings about how people should and
- 7:46shouldn't use Bitcoin, you're in for a rough time.
- 7:49I would say it's with it. Just accept the fact that, you
- 7:52know, people can do with their money whatever they want.
- 7:54And the way that the protocol works is that it's completely
- 7:56blind to what you're doing with your coins on the Bitcoin
- 8:01blockchain. There is no paper Bitcoin.
- 8:03There's no such thing as paper Bitcoin.
- 8:05There's only 21 million Bitcoin and every node makes sure of
- 8:08that every 10 minutes. And then if somebody who has
- 8:12some of these Bitcoin on their private key decides to sell
- 8:16obligations, financial liabilities, referring to that
- 8:20Bitcoin under any condition, that's their choice.
- 8:23And so it's outside of Bitcoin and it's it's outside of the
- 8:27realm of other Bitcoin uses being able to say this is right
- 8:31or wrong. And this is this should happen
- 8:33or shouldn't happen. People are going to do whatever
- 8:35they want with the Bitcoin, including selling access to it
- 8:37or exposure to it in all kinds of different ways.
- 8:39And if you don't like it, you don't buy it.
- 8:41You know, stack your own bitcoins.
- 8:43It's not just a bunch of software anymore.
- 8:45Sure, it allows people to settle in real time, peer-to-peer,
- 8:48without any intermediary people being in between.
- 8:51But we're not talking about a medium of exchange just yet.
- 8:53We're talking about a store of value.
- 8:55And there is a price and an element of price discovery.
- 8:57With Bitcoin, it's the main the feature that it has right now in
- 9:00markets. And so the price of Bitcoin
- 9:02actually determines the adoption of Bitcoin.
- 9:05One of the main things that people want to do with Bitcoin
- 9:07is escape the Fiat rat race to escape monetary debasement,
- 9:11which is a store value play, unless you're Nick Fuentes, and
- 9:14in that case you're an idiot who prefers the Fiat system.
- 9:18Would you make Bitcoin the US? Currency.
- 9:20No. No.
- 9:22I believe in. Fiat money generally.
- 9:24Would. You make it legal tender,
- 9:27Probably not. OK, get him off the screen.
- 9:29You get the point. And I think this is entirely
- 9:32possible if Bitcoin continues to be lauded for its ETF inflows
- 9:36and ETF purchases. We need to buy the real thing,
- 9:39real Bitcoin, that we can post in an address and run finance
- 9:42from. Which is exactly what you're
- 9:43allowed to do with letting the leader in Bitcoin back loans,
- 9:46which allows you to post Bitcoin as collateral into an address
- 9:49where you can see and verify from that actual Bitcoin.
- 9:52They will lend you up to 50% loan to value in dollars.
- 9:55So you post $2000 in Bitcoin collateral and they give you a
- 9:58$1000 Fiat loan. The process is fast and simple
- 10:02because real Bitcoin is actually fast and simple.
- 10:05Fiat money goes into your account in less than six hours
- 10:08and the application takes just two minutes.
- 10:10Either you have the Bitcoin collateral or you don't.
- 10:12It's pretty simple. None of this futures, none of
- 10:14these derivatives, none of these other products loan started just
- 10:1712.4%. You get .25% off your first loan
- 10:20by going to learn dot leaden dot AO slash.
- 10:22Simply, one of the ways that you can also verify that you have
- 10:25real Bitcoin is to not trust that your Bitcoin is there in an
- 10:28IOU or on a screen. It's to actually verify it for
- 10:31yourself. Coaches will teach you exactly
- 10:33how to do this so you can be sure that you have the Bitcoin
- 10:36that you say that you do or the exchange says that you do on
- 10:39your behalf. You remove it from exchanges and
- 10:41you take hold of your private keys.
- 10:43Have a coach walk you through this step by step at the Bitcoin
- 10:46Way, the leaders in helping you to learn how to protect your
- 10:48sovereign wealth the right way. Go to thebitcoinway.com/simply
- 10:52Bitcoin to learn how to remove your Bitcoin from exchanges.
- 10:55We're not buying Bitcoin in the open market quite yet, but my
- 11:00suspicion is that'll happen when there's enough pressure
- 11:02externally, meaning once the US government recognizes that
- 11:07others are taking action before them, that'll probably catalyze
- 11:11additional action in the future. Predicting that is sort of a
- 11:14fool's error in my opinion. It's like really hard to to get
- 11:18that correct. But what I am confident in
- 11:20saying is when Bitcoin is $1,000,000, a coin which I think
- 11:25is coming by, even though it seems unlikely right now given
- 11:27the current price action, I think it's still coming by say
- 11:302033 or so in that time frame. So within the next 10 years, I
- 11:35think by the time that happens, almost every government will
- 11:38have some direct or indirect exposure to the asset and it
- 11:42will be viewed as a common, you know, strategic reserve type of
- 11:46asset across the world, so. Can you expand on that a little
- 11:49more like what market cap do you see Bitcoin reaching and what
- 11:52role will it play within the global financial system?
- 11:54I. Mean, I think it could reach 50
- 11:56or 100 trillion and what's it at right now, 22 trillion?
- 12:00Yeah, over what time frame? Over the next 10 or 15 years.
- 12:04OK, I want us to watch this clip, a great clip from an
- 12:06interview that we saw earlier this week about the potential of
- 12:09Bitcoin running to $1,000,000. But the part of it for me that I
- 12:12have a little skepticism towards is that if the banks and
- 12:14institutions actually get their hands on it, they're not going
- 12:17to allow Bitcoin to just run to 1,000,000 by 2030 just like
- 12:20that. And I believe it's because the
- 12:23amount of Bitcoiners that have all of the Bitcoin and all of
- 12:26the power are going to be more powerful than the people and
- 12:29Wall Street who got to the game too late.
- 12:31But if we do continue to remove Bitcoin from exchanges and have
- 12:35real Bitcoin, the Bitcoin that save Dean did talk about in that
- 12:38video, then I believe that $1 million Bitcoin can happen.
- 12:41But it's a matter of whether people want real Bitcoin or the
- 12:44Ious of Bitcoin that are being maintained, held and manipulated
- 12:48by these big exchanges under natural forces.
- 12:51Bitcoin hits a million more demand, less supply.
- 12:54But if the system is able to manipulate the prices like it's
- 12:56done with silver for years, then that future may take longer than
- 13:00you think. I believe that Bitcoin can and
- 13:02hit $1 million by 20-30 with real price discovery.
- 13:05I believe that it may take much longer than that if there is
- 13:08manipulation of the price of Bitcoin and that is the
- 13:10volatility we have to go through.
- 13:12The way that I combat my skepticism of the real Bitcoin
- 13:15narrative playing out or the fake manipulated Bitcoin
- 13:18narrative playing out is that I intend to hold for a lot longer
- 13:21than they're willing to stomach. Four years is a good time. 10
- 13:24years is a great time in the right time, and then I'll
- 13:26revisit from there. You know, as I say, volatility
- 13:29is vitality. Bitcoin is a volatile asset.
- 13:33If you're going to hold the asset you need a four year time
- 13:36horizon is minimum. A 10 year time horizon is really
- 13:40the the right time frame. If your time horizon is less
- 13:45than four years, you should hold the credit instruments like
- 13:48digital credit. And if you're an equity investor
- 13:52in a digital equity like my company, you need that same 4 to
- 13:5710 year time horizon. 4 is the short term, 10 years is a long
- 14:01term. I'm an officer of a publicly
- 14:03traded company. And what are we doing?
- 14:06We are in the business of buying a high energy, highly volatile
- 14:12asset and stripping the risk and the volatility off of it in
- 14:16order to sell it to people that are much more risk adverse, that
- 14:20are much more volatility adverse, that just want that
- 14:23yield. And so if Bitcoin wasn't
- 14:25volatile, it probably wouldn't be high performance and then our
- 14:29value added wouldn't be that great, right?
- 14:31Like for example, I say to people, if you knew Bitcoin was
- 14:34going to go up 2% a month forever with no volatility,
- 14:37neither you nor I would be in business because all the
- 14:41conventional finance investors, all the conventional
- 14:44journalists, they would dominate the market.
- 14:46Warren Buffett would own all of it and there wouldn't be an
- 14:49opportunity for us. So I look at the volatility as
- 14:54it's challenge, but it's also the bug is the feature.
- 14:59And I say to people, you know, volatility is Satoshi's gift to
- 15:04the faithful. He basically gave you the
- 15:07ability to rise to the top of your profession as an analyst,
- 15:13as a journalist, as a corporate operator, as an investor.
- 15:17And if the volatility goes away, no one cares about your opinion
- 15:22on any of this. It's like, you know, you've got
- 15:25fire, and we've got the phrase burned.
- 15:28Fire burns you and electricity shocks you.
- 15:31And Henry Ford created an automobile, you know, with a
- 15:35burning engine, with a fire in the engine.
- 15:38And we created electronic transmissions.
- 15:41And so you put electricity and fire in the car, and you've got
- 15:44to kill our consumer product. And I think the key here is you
- 15:49got to look at at this market and say this is indicative of
- 15:52energy. You can harness the energy, You
- 15:55can't be scared of the energy, right?
- 15:58There are those people that run from the fires and then there's
- 16:01people that put the fire in the automobile or the jet airplane,
- 16:05and we kind of need the people to build the airplanes and build
- 16:08the automobiles if we're going to move the civilization
- 16:11forward. Volatility is Satoshi's gift to
- 16:14the faithful. Are you willing to withstand
- 16:16manipulation if it does happen like we've seen with silver?
- 16:18Or are you going to wait it out and get the real reward at the
- 16:21end? It's going to be a battle, but
- 16:23even still, we have a lot to be thankful for.
- 16:26Look at the prices of Bitcoin every Thanksgiving and think
- 16:29what will happen the next 16 years?
- 16:31Will you take part of it or are you going to get out early?
- 16:33One of the ways you can become sovereign is by mining and
- 16:36earning sats while you sleep. One of the ways you can do that
- 16:38as you can partner with a company like SAS Mining who will
- 16:41buy a state-of-the-art mining rib, operate it for you with
- 16:43carbon free and clean renewable energy, and give you sats
- 16:47directly to your wallet every single day with no contracts, no
- 16:51markups and no minimum. Just Satoshi's working for you
- 16:54around the clock. Oh, and you can depreciate the
- 16:56value of the machine in year 1 to offset other income.
- 16:59There's a lot to like there. Use the QR code to get started
- 17:03with SAS Mining and earning sats while you sleep.
- 17:05This is Dante Coco Bitcoin simply happy stacking.
