Latest / Simply Bitcoin / 96% Chance FED Cuts Rates! | What's Next for Bitcoin? | Bitcoin Simply
Transcript
- 0:00Eric Trump just went on CNBC and had this to say about Bitcoin.
- 0:03Bitcoin has become, I think the truly greatest asset of our
- 0:06time. The greatest asset of our time.
- 0:08Who would have thought that this would be the comments coming
- 0:10from the White House? Who would have thought that meme
- 0:12money, the Bitcoin virus would have infiltrated the White House
- 0:16in the halls of power? So much so that now even the
- 0:18president, his dad, has a low time preference, advocating that
- 0:22we should be taking a 50 to 100 year approach when it comes to
- 0:25our investments like China. But this is still the US
- 0:28economy. And with Uncle Rome set to take
- 0:31the podium tomorrow, Wall Street expects a 25 basis point rate
- 0:34cut to happen with 96% confidence.
- 0:36And there's some analysts out there like Gareth, who cares
- 0:39what I say? Soloway says that despite rate
- 0:42cuts, bitcoins still going to fall to 75 K.
- 0:45So I do think, you know, I can't tell you where it's going to be
- 0:48in 10-15 years from now, But after a correction that I do
- 0:52think we are close to. And I will go on record and say
- 0:54I do think Bitcoins going back to at least $75,000, while
- 0:58others like Tom Lee have very different, different
- 1:00predictions. Bitcoin and Ethereum I think
- 1:02there could make a monster move in the next three months.
- 1:05Like huge. The stage is set for toddlers
- 1:07with long term mindsets and diamond hands.
- 1:10As to what will happen in the next two days, we're not sure.
- 1:13But what will happen over the next 21 years, well, we know
- 1:16what time it is. This is Dante Cook with Bitcoin.
- 1:18Simply let's go. But you're also seeing assets
- 1:24like Bitcoin. Bitcoin has become the modern
- 1:27day gold. People all over the world are
- 1:29pouring into it. You know, companies from Fortune
- 1:325 hundreds, the company like ours, the sovereign wealth
- 1:34funds, so the richest families on earth are all hoarding
- 1:37Bitcoin. It's become such an incredible
- 1:39asset. It's immediately liquid.
- 1:40It's probably the greatest hedge to real estate.
- 1:43You know that there is, right, Because again, you have you have
- 1:45massive liquidity. It's all around the world is
- 1:47protected by kind of the, the, the greatest ecosystem of, of
- 1:51energy mining companies in the world that that safeguard it.
- 1:55Bitcoin has become, I think the truly greatest asset of our
- 1:58time. That's right.
- 1:59Bitcoin is the greatest asset of all time.
- 2:01It's a superior asset to gold. It's a hedge against real
- 2:04estate. Everyone wants it and the
- 2:06richest people on earth are hoarding it according to Eric
- 2:08Trump. And that's because Bitcoin is
- 2:10not just a monetary revolution. It's an ideological revolution
- 2:14disguised in technology, one that's causing Americans to
- 2:17rethink time preference. People like our president.
- 2:20Let's go back to our top story this morning, Matt, And it is
- 2:23President Trump saying that companies should not be forced
- 2:26to report quarterly earnings. The president took Just Truth
- 2:29Social to save firms reporting on 1/2 yearly basis would quote
- 2:32save money and allow managers to focus properly on running their
- 2:37companies. The president saying we've
- 2:38become too focused on these short term and that reporting on
- 2:41a quarterly basis should now be extended to six months and our
- 2:45fiercest rivals like China have a 50 to 100 year view on how
- 2:49they look at things. This is massive news, especially
- 2:52for Bitcoin treasury companies who believe that over the long
- 2:55term, Bitcoin leveraged properly against Fiat dollars which are
- 2:58becoming worth less, is a pretty good bet to me.
- 3:02You know, so bitcoins, a long term asset, you know you want to
- 3:05hold it for 21 years. If you're going to invest in
- 3:07Bitcoin, a short time horizon is 4 years, a mid time horizon is
- 3:1110 years. The right time horizon is
- 3:14forever. You know, Warren Buffett said,
- 3:16you know, if you wouldn't hold it for 10 years, you shouldn't
- 3:19hold it for 10 minutes. So if you look at the course of
- 3:22four years, no one's ever lost money over 4 years holding
- 3:25Bitcoin. And, and if you look at, you
- 3:28know, our experience, we started buying it at $10,000 and now
- 3:32it's up by a factor of 4. So, so given the right time
- 3:36horizon, you're fine. So it's a blessing and a curse.
- 3:40The blessing is it makes it the most exciting, interesting thing
- 3:43in the financial universe everywhere in the world.
- 3:46And and the curses, it can induce anxiety for people that
- 3:50have a short attention span or or are focused on a narrow time
- 3:54horizon. Bitcoin can induce anxiety for
- 3:57people with a narrow time horizon, and that's the entire
- 4:00market these days. Everything is so short term, so
- 4:03short sighted. Point in case, as an example, we
- 4:05want our Bitcoin treasury companies like NACA to go up
- 4:09overnight all at once. Right now, trollers out there
- 4:12like Magoo say that NACA should be changing their ticker to
- 4:15NADA, whose stock has gone down 96% since May and over 50%
- 4:18yesterday. But if you can't withstand A
- 4:20drawdown, then you deserve the mediocre returns that you get.
- 4:24Here's what the Rat Poison Square professor Charlie Munger
- 4:27has to say about drawdowns that you can argue that if you're not
- 4:31willing to react with equanimity to a market price decline of 50%
- 4:39two or three times a century, you're not fit to be a common
- 4:43shareholder and you deserve the mediocre result you're going to
- 4:46get. I don't even know what Charlie
- 4:50said. You live in what?
- 4:52Kind of home, not for real. You didn't hear me come to
- 4:57pontificate about the long term structural problems of the Fed
- 5:00fiscal dominance or the market regime that is changing right
- 5:03before our eyes. You want to know what's going to
- 5:05happen with Bitcoin in the next three months if the Fed cuts
- 5:08rates? You only want to hear what's
- 5:10going to happen if Jerome Powell cuts rates tomorrow.
- 5:12You alluded to some of the places that could see the
- 5:15biggest impact, yes, but can you take us through those if you had
- 5:18to put a top three together about where you think the most
- 5:22activity or juice could come from if the Fed were to embark
- 5:26on this path? I think of maybe home builders,
- 5:29I think of other parts of the market, maybe technology based
- 5:31on valuations, but in your mind, what are the places that are
- 5:35going to reap the most benefit from that?
- 5:37Yeah. So I'm looking at September 98
- 5:39and September 2024 as the playbook because those are both
- 5:43years where the Fed was on extended pause and they cut in
- 5:47September. The number one trade is NASDAQ
- 5:50100. So I think that's why the MAG 7
- 5:53and the AI trade gets a lot of lift off.
- 5:57The second is monetary liquidity sensitivity, global central
- 6:01banks easing. That's Bitcoin and Ethereum and
- 6:05seasonally strong. I think they could make a
- 6:07monster move in the next three months like huge.
- 6:10And the third of course is interest rate sensitives.
- 6:13That's really small caps and financials, but really the 1st 2
- 6:17might be the standout trades. All right.
- 6:20Because you mentioned the crypto side of things.
- 6:22Small caps, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Mag 7 all going to run when the
- 6:26rates get cut. We talked about this in our last
- 6:28episode. That's probably a good bet, but
- 6:30I would be doing you a disservice if I focused your
- 6:32time horizon onto a narrow sliver of time and not the long
- 6:36term picture of what's going on. Here's the long term things
- 6:39playing out that you need to keep in the back of your mind.
- 6:41One, the government is unfixable.
- 6:43The greatest builder and entrepreneur of our time, Elon
- 6:46Musk, had this to say about his time being in the bow of the
- 6:50beast in Washington, DC. Any lessons from your time in
- 6:53Washington, DC? The government is basically
- 6:59unfixable. Elon only.
- 7:07I've heard David's noble efforts in this.
- 7:11It's good to it's, it's good to have talented people in the
- 7:13administration. But at the end of the day, if
- 7:17you look at our national debt, which is insanely high, the
- 7:22interest payments exceed the Defense Department, I guess,
- 7:27sorry, War Department budget and they keep rising.
- 7:35So if AI and robots don't solve our national debt, we're toast.
- 7:40If AI can't save us, we're toast.
- 7:43But you know what? Not even AI can overthrow the
- 7:46powers given to central bankers who can just print money at free
- 7:48will. Simply flooded the system with
- 7:51money. Yes, we did.
- 7:54That's another way to think about it.
- 7:56We did. Where does it come from?
- 7:57Do you just print it? We print it digitally.
- 8:00So we, you know, we as a central bank, we have the ability to
- 8:03create money digitally and we do that by buying treasury bills
- 8:08or, or bonds or other government guaranteed securities and that
- 8:13that actually increases the money supply.
- 8:15We also print actual currency and we distribute that to the
- 8:18Federal Reserve Bank. Here's how reputable analysts
- 8:21like Lynn Alden would describe the problem that we have now,
- 8:23specifically as it relates to interest rates in our government
- 8:26debt problem. She talks about fiscal
- 8:28dominance. And the current era on at the US
- 8:32government's average annual fiscal deficit, like how much
- 8:35the difference between our our taxes and our spending, that's a
- 8:39bigger amount than net new bank loans in a given year and it's
- 8:43even bigger than the sum of net new bank loans and net new
- 8:47corporate bond issuance. So basically, yeah, public
- 8:50sector credit formation is is now bigger than the private
- 8:54sector by, by, you know, several ways of measuring it.
- 8:58And the problem is that when you have over 100% debt to GDP,
- 9:01unlike the 70s where they had 30 something percent debt to GDP,
- 9:05so now you have over 100%. When the Fed raises interest
- 9:08rates to try to slow down bank lending and try to harden the
- 9:11currency, they actually blow out the the fiscal deficit by an
- 9:14even bigger number. Then they slow down net new bank
- 9:18loans. These problems aren't going to
- 9:20play out right away. Here's the long term results of
- 9:23what happens when fiscal dominance runs too long.
- 9:25I have the phrase nothing stops his train, which I, which I, you
- 9:29know, took from Breaking Bad, which is basically that this
- 9:32kind of slower burn default slash def situation is probably
- 9:36going to last longer than people think.
- 9:39And so it doesn't blow up right away, but it also is not fixed
- 9:43anytime soon. And this is what Lynn's
- 9:44recommendation is for the Bitcoin position in your
- 9:47portfolio. For Bitcoin, I think my advice
- 9:50tends to be that there's a lot of numbers that make sense, but
- 9:53zero is probably not the right one.
- 9:55Which is to say, you know, they're people that are more
- 9:59than 100% all in, like they're levered long and there are other
- 10:03people that a three or 5% allocation could make sense.
- 10:07But I think that if you don't own any and if you've never sent
- 10:10a Bitcoin transaction, I, I do think that going forward, that's
- 10:15a, that's a good thing to have done.
- 10:17It's a good thing to have at the very least, you've educated
- 10:20yourself on the functionality of this, but it's a different way
- 10:23of, of doing money. And I do think that that going
- 10:29forward, 0 is not the right number.
- 10:30It could be an amount that's not that important to you, but at
- 10:34least you have skin in the game now and maybe would would pay
- 10:37attention to it going forward. Not zero.
- 10:40That's it. That's the position you should
- 10:42have when considering the world that we're entering into next.
- 10:44And if you have a Bitcoin position that is above zero,
- 10:47well, it should always stay above 0 and ideally it shouldn't
- 10:51decrease, which is why we work with people like Lennon, the
- 10:54leader in Bitcoin back loans, which allow you to keep your

- 11:40coming in the future is more control, more control over
- 11:43speech, more control over money, more control over what you can
- 11:46spend. And in that world, you're going
- 11:48to want to have control over something that you can account
- 11:50for. And you can do that with
- 11:52Bitcoin, but you want to do that confidently, safely, securely.

- 12:06the bitcoinway.com. To become sovereign over your
- 12:08generational assets, go to thebitcoinway.com/simply
- 12:12Bitcoin. When your mind fully begins to
- 12:14understand that it doesn't matter about what Jerome Powell
- 12:17says tomorrow or what happens in the next two weeks or even 2
- 12:21months, you'll begin to start to allocate more and more of your
- 12:25worthless Fiat dollars into this Bitcoin system.
- 12:28Because again, it's not just a monetary revolution, it's an
- 12:30ideological shift that will begin to happen in your mind.
- 12:33Listen to what Adam in Fact Bitcoin OG says about how
- 12:36Bitcoin infiltrated his pocketbooks and how it changed
- 12:38his behavior over time. I mean, then you just run out of
- 12:41money because you're like, well, you know, it started as 10% and
- 12:44now it's 50%. Maybe I should just get off the
- 12:48fence and quit Fiat forever. Yeah, so, so I'm not sure
- 12:52exactly when it happened for me, but there was definitely a point
- 12:55where, you know, I was counting, you know, what's my savings
- 12:59accounts add up to in dollars or EUR or what have you.
- 13:06And there was some point where I was like, no, no, what counts as
- 13:09how many Bitcoins you have? And I just didn't care about,
- 13:12you know, the rest of it at all. So that happens to people.
- 13:16And once you start to look at Bitcoin differently in the world
- 13:19differently, well, you begin to start to assign the opportunity
- 13:22cost to Bitcoin and not just its current price, which is about
- 13:25110 to $115,000 a coin. You recognize that that Ferrari
- 13:30is 6 Bitcoin or in the future $100 million, according to
- 13:34Michael Saylor. I think the best way to get
- 13:37superior returns 100 and X type returns if you're an individual
- 13:41would be you adopt a bit, you keep your day job and so you,
- 13:45you maximize the cash flow you generate via whatever your
- 13:50profession is, you're responsible on your, on your
- 13:55expenditures. You have to think in the year
- 13:582045, I think of bitcoins worth $13 million.
- 14:01So every Bitcoin that you don't buy is a $13 million cost.
- 14:05That Ferrari that you're going to buy is going to cost you like
- 14:096 Bitcoin. And so it's going to be $100
- 14:12million Ferrari, right, if you look out 20 years.
- 14:16So you have to keep your job. You know, unless you're insanely
- 14:22rich, don't splurge on the Ferrari.
- 14:24Buy the Buy the six Bitcoin instead.
- 14:27That's the opportunity cost when you're thinking long term, when
- 14:30you take a 50 to 100 year view or you elevate from a quarterly
- 14:34view to a six month view and not just what will happen after the
- 14:38Fed FOMC meeting on Wednesday. None of those things matters.
- 14:42What do you think about Bitcoin over the long term or are you
- 14:45just focused on what some analyst is going to say about
- 14:48what's going to happen in the next two to three months?
- 14:50One of the ways you can continue to invest in your Bitcoin
- 14:52journey is by learning about how the entire ecosystem works.
- 14:55And that means the miners, the manufacturers, the people making
- 14:58the machines and equipment that protect the Bitcoin network, the
- 15:02accountants of the Bitcoin network, the people that write
- 15:04the transactions in the blockchain and audit the chain.
- 15:07Well, those are miners. And you can learn all about them
- 15:09at the largest Bitcoin mining Expo in the world.
- 15:12The Mining Disrupt conference is happening in Dallas, TX from
- 15:14November 11th through November 13th, and you're not going to
- 15:16want to miss it. And if you are going or deciding
