X Everything App Goes Bitcoin | EP 813 · Simply Bitcoin

• 0:10
  It's all going to zero against Bitcoin.
• 0:13
  It's going up forever more. You're against Bitcoin.
• 0:23
  You're against freedom. Good morning, everybody.
• 0:28
  We are back and as you can tell Elon's doubling down on the
• 0:32
  everything app the we chat of the West.
• 0:35
  Apparently X or Twitter obtains a license to store, transfer and
• 0:40
  trade Bitcoin. And and you guys know I I can't
• 0:43
  cuss in the first few minutes so.
• 0:44
  And crypto. Now we all know it's Bitcoin
• 0:48
  only so it really makes you wonder will Elon take this
• 0:52
  seriously or will he troll and add crypto to Twitter or is he
• 0:58
  just going full Fiat? Well, we'll dive into this.
• 1:01
  Is Elon going to provide a platform that doesn't do a
• 1:05
  disservice to his user base? I don't know.
• 1:07
  Only time will tell, but we are seeing that he is doubling down
• 1:10
  on the Everything app. They are taking steps to ensure
• 1:14
  that they can finally, finally put payments on Twitter.
• 1:17
  So this is something we've been covering for a while.
• 1:20
  Of course, there has been some trends shouts out to our boy
• 1:23
  Matt Odell on the the dystopian nature of the Everything app.
• 1:27
  We've covered that in the past. We probably won't get too much
• 1:30
  into it. We might just kind of touch on
• 1:31
  it. And then next on the docket,
• 1:33
  guys, for today's news. We also have some amazing news
• 1:37
  coming out of El Salvador that apparently Google will open up
• 1:40
  an office and bring digital infrastructure to El Salvador,
• 1:44
  which further proves that if you allow for innovation in your
• 1:48
  country, you'll attract capital and the brain drain will follow.
• 1:52
  So interesting, interesting stuff happening in the world.
• 1:56
  And of course I am not alone today.
• 1:57
  I'm not doing the show by myself guys, but we do have a guest.
• 2:01
  We do have Dell in the building, so welcome to simply Bitcoin.
• 2:04
  We are your number one source for the peaceful Bitcoin
• 2:06
  revolution. We cover breaking news, culture
• 2:07
  and mematic warfare. And we bring on bitcoiners from
• 2:10
  all around the world, from the biggest names to the everyday
• 2:13
  bitcoiner. We got them all and we will be
• 2:15
  your guide through the separation of money and state.
• 2:20
  Without further ado, let's bring in our Co hosts.
• 2:22
  Dell, how are you doing today? Good to have you back twice in
• 2:25
  one week. Yeah, they're setting records
• 2:27
  here. Yeah, us in Bitcoin.
• 2:30
  So that was interesting yesterday.
• 2:31
  I'm watching. I don't remember what it was.
• 2:33
  I'm usually checking time chain calendar.
• 2:35
  That's where I go for so much information packed into a nice
• 2:39
  little shiny, easy to read, understand package and I just
• 2:43
  saw the price going clunk. Clunk just kept on going up by
• 2:47
  about 100 bucks every couple of minutes.
• 2:49
  I was like, what is going on here?
• 2:50
  What's happening? I text my brothers and I'm
• 2:52
  watching it go up and I'm it's weird to be in Bitcoin because
• 2:56
  once you have gone down the rabbit hole far enough, the
• 2:59
  price going up is a sign of of worry for a lot of bitcoiners.
• 3:04
  Like yes, you wanted to go up on the one hand, but on the other
• 3:07
  hand I was really hoping to get some more cheap SAT.
• 3:10
  So it's it's this weird emotional pull at the same time.
• 3:13
  And I. I never dabbled in stocks all
• 3:16
  that much, but I wonder if it's the same thing for people that
• 3:18
  do stock stuff or other things like, oh, I I get the impression
• 3:22
  that people in anything other than Bitcoin, with maybe some
• 3:25
  exceptions, very few of them, just want the price to go up.
• 3:27
  They're just like, I want that Fiat number to go up, I want
• 3:29
  that Fiat number to go up. Whereas Bitcoin is like, no, no,
• 3:32
  no, I want more Bitcoin because the the everything is going to
• 3:35
  be priced in Bitcoin at some point.
• 3:37
  Like, I I I can't wait to buy a steak for a hundred sets.
• 3:40
  Nice steak dinner. All right, well, without further
• 3:46
  ado, let's bring in our guests Sandy Waves from El Salvador.
• 3:49
  It just so happens that we have a news story on El Salvador
• 3:53
  today and we have a local. So this is going to be super,
• 3:56
  super exciting. How are you doing this morning,
• 3:58
  Sandy Waves? Hi, guys.
• 4:01
  I'm doing really good. Happy to be here.
• 4:03
  So thank you for inviting me. Love it, love it.
• 4:06
  Well, before we move on, let's give the people like Sandy.
• 4:09
  You're from El Salvador. And maybe, you know, tell the
• 4:13
  people what's your thoughts on Bukelle real quick?
• 4:17
  That's amazing. It's a really good talk.
• 4:20
  He's my president. I'm really happy that I vote for
• 4:24
  him and we're gonna reelect him again.
• 4:28
  Let's go. OK.
• 4:29
  Have another good time with him improving the country, improving
• 4:35
  our life, investing in the country and attracting more
• 4:38
  people to El Salvador. What's?
• 4:40
  What's the term? What's the term?
• 4:42
  Is it four years? Yeah.
• 4:44
  Four years. OK, OK, awesome.
• 4:47
  Awesome. Well, on today's docket, we have
• 4:50
  an example of a new story that is doing exactly that in El
• 4:53
  Salvador. So I'm excited to get your take
• 4:55
  as a local. And of course we are Bitcoin or
• 4:58
  so. We see good news coming out of
• 5:00
  El Salvador. We love it.
• 5:01
  We are huge fans of Bukele and what he's doing in El Salvador.
• 5:04
  And we can't wait to see El Salvador continue to improve
• 5:08
  moving forward in the digital world.
• 5:11
  But without further ado, guys, let's get into the numbers.
• 5:16
  The Bitcoin numbers. Is your Bitcoin and cold storage
• 5:20
  really secure? Is your seed phrase really
• 5:23
  secure? Stamp seeds?
• 5:24
  Do it yourself. Kit has everything you need to
• 5:27
  hammer your seed words into commercial grade titanium plates
• 5:32
  instead of just writing them on paper.
• 5:34
  Don't store your generational wealth on paper.
• 5:38
  Papers prone to water damage. Fire damage.
• 5:40
  You want to put your generational wealth on one of
• 5:42
  the strongest metals on planet earth, Titanium.
• 5:46
  Your words are actually stamped into this metal plate with this
• 5:49
  hammer and these letter stamps. And once your words are in, they
• 5:52
  aren't going anywhere. No risk of the plate breaking
• 5:55
  apart and pieces falling everywhere.
• 5:58
  Titanium stamp seeds will survive nearly triple the heat
• 6:01
  produced by a house fire. They're also crush proof,
• 6:03
  waterproof, non corrosive, and time proof.
• 6:06
  All things that paper is not. Not allowing you to huddle your
• 6:09
  Bitcoin with Peace of Mind for the long haul.
• 6:12
  Stamp your seed on stamp seed. Of course, guys.
• 6:16
  Scan the QR code. Wait, scan the QR card over
• 6:19
  there and get yourself a storage kit today.
• 6:22
  Do not leave your private seed on paper in your sock drawer.
• 6:26
  OK? Anyways, let's get into the
• 6:28
  numbers guys. As you guys know, we are over
• 6:30
  here on Clark Moody's dashboard. And of course, my favorite
• 6:32
  number, and This is why it's the first number.
• 6:35
  It's a block high and we are currently at 805,472.
• 6:39
  Tick tock next block. It's almost like Bitcoin works
• 6:42
  anyways. The next price or the next
• 6:43
  number is the price. Guys, we are at 27,145.
• 6:47
  I know there was a lot of talk yesterday whether we were going
• 6:50
  to stay in the 27 KS. What's going on with the price?
• 6:52
  It reacted pretty favorably to the grayscale ETF news and it
• 6:58
  seems to be holding on. Are we going to get one more leg
• 7:00
  down? I don't know.
• 7:01
  Only time will tell, but it doesn't really matter.
• 7:03
  Just keep stacking them sets and of course the next time the
• 7:06
  Moscow, the Moscow time, the next number sets per dollar, aka
• 7:09
  how much your Fiat dollar is worth, aka how much Bitcoin you
• 7:12
  can buy for a single dollar. It's currently at 3685 and the
• 7:17
  total percentage issued of Bitcoin is at 92.72.
• 7:20
  It's almost like it hasn't changed in a while.
• 7:22
  Well, it's going too soon guys. It's going, it's going anyways.
• 7:25
  The market cap in Fiat terms of the Bitcoin price is 528,000
• 7:30
  point $4 billion. The realized monetary inflation
• 7:33
  taking Fiat currencies to school is currently at 1.75%.
• 7:37
  There's literally no other currency in the world.
• 7:40
  Fiat currencies in the world that can even come close to
• 7:43
  bitcoins. Realized monetary inflation
• 7:45
  right now and it's going to get cut in half.
• 7:48
  Ah man, it feels so good to be a Bitcoin.
• 7:49
  It feels so good having your money hardened in real time.
• 7:53
  Anyways, the Bitcoin versus gold market cap is currently at
• 7:55
  4.09%. So much room to run in the hard
• 7:59
  money game. The total lightning capacity
• 8:01
  public lightning capacity is 6000 or 4646.
• 8:05
  The hash rate in the last 90 days.
• 8:07
  The estimated hash rate the last 90 days is 378.7 exit hashes.
• 8:12
  If you remember, it went up one exit hash since yesterday, but
• 8:15
  of course it's an estimate and the pending fees.
• 8:18
  It's currently at 3.37 BTC so the Wizards have not broken
• 8:24
  Bitcoin. Anyways, let's get into the news
• 8:27
  story today. So as you guys can see I don't
• 8:31
  have the the Bitcoin Magazine official tweet out, but
• 8:34
  yesterday you know we were all caught up on the grayscale news
• 8:37
  and the fact that their GB TC will eventually become a spot
• 8:41
  Bitcoin ETF. That this news also dropped
• 8:44
  yesterday. And maybe this is also why the
• 8:46
  Bitcoin price pump two knows. No one knows why the Bitcoin
• 8:49
  price does what it does. It just does what it does
• 8:51
  anyways. But we're over here on Bitcoin
• 8:53
  Magazine and you guys can see here that XAKA Twitter obtains a
• 8:58
  license to store, transfer, and trade Bitcoin and unfortunately
• 9:02
  shit coin. So you know, we do our best to
• 9:06
  separate any story that is Bitcoin and shitcoin, and it's
• 9:09
  not news unless it's Bitcoin. But we have been covering the
• 9:13
  Twitter, aka X Everything app for a while and so we're
• 9:18
  doubling down on this. And I know there might be some
• 9:20
  contention out there whether they are actually embracing
• 9:23
  Bitcoin, we won't know until it actually gets rolled out.
• 9:26
  But let's cover some of the sauce in here and then we'll get
• 9:28
  some of the Bitcoin takes on top of this.
• 9:30
  So in Rhode Island, they've officially approved the license
• 9:33
  request by Twitter Payments LLC, Access Payments Branch to be
• 9:36
  able to store, transfer and exchange Bitcoin and other
• 9:39
  digital assets on behalf of its users.
• 9:41
  So I'm over here and I went to the official website over here
• 9:45
  on nmlsconsumeraccess.org and you can see Twitter Payments
• 9:50
  LLC. They have gotten money
• 9:52
  transmender license in Arizona, Georgia, Maryland and Michigan.
• 9:55
  They have got a sales of checks and money transmender license in
• 9:59
  Missouri. They have a money transmitter
• 10:01
  license in New Hampshire and a currency transmitter license in
• 10:05
  Rhode Island. So let's go back over here and
• 10:08
  you can see some of the takes here from Bitcoin Mag.
• 10:10
  The currency Transmender license is required for companies who
• 10:13
  want to perform these activities related to Bitcoin and crypto on
• 10:16
  behalf of its users. This license also includes
• 10:19
  related service providers such as wallet payment processors and
• 10:22
  exchange. Elon Musk has previously stated
• 10:25
  that he wants to turn X into the everything app, sharing that the
• 10:28
  platform will add comprehensive communications and the ability
• 10:31
  to conduct your entire financial world.
• 10:34
  Well I went over here to watch our guru cuz they also reported
• 10:38
  on the news to maybe add a little more sauce on here for
• 10:41
  you guys. So again on the same idea, X
• 10:44
  Twitter can now conduct crypto activities.
• 10:47
  A currency transmitter license is the legal requirement for
• 10:50
  companies wishing to conduct any activities related to crypto
• 10:53
  currencies on behalf of their users.
• 10:55
  The license permit X to store, transfer, and exchange digital
• 10:58
  currencies. It also allows for a
• 11:00
  comprehensive range of services related to crypto assets.
• 11:05
  So as you can see here, Rhode Island's granting of this
• 11:08
  license adds X to a list of entities such as crypto
• 11:11
  currencies, exchanges, digital wallets, and payment processors,
• 11:14
  all of which are now legally allowed to maintain control of
• 11:17
  virtual currency transactions on behalf of others.
• 11:21
  So as you can see, this does look like they might be getting
• 11:25
  into the shit coin round. And we all know that Elon's been
• 11:28
  trolling all of Bitcoin and and maybe not even taking this
• 11:31
  seriously and being a doge maxi and embracing doge and adding
• 11:35
  doge to the Twitter tips for a while, even changing the Twitter
• 11:40
  logo to the doge dog. So do we know exactly what is
• 11:45
  going on here? No.
• 11:46
  But we do know that they are doubling down.
• 11:49
  They are taking more steps to turn Twitter into the Everything
• 11:52
  app. And like I mentioned, you know,
• 11:53
  Matt Odell's been on the case for a while that the the Twitter
• 11:57
  blue ky seeing of social media is a dangerous precedent moving
• 12:02
  forward. And maybe they are turning
• 12:04
  Twitter into the we chat of the West.
• 12:07
  Like Elon Musk has said himself and you know as a bitcoiner, as
• 12:11
  a paranoid, tinfoil hat person on Bitcoin, it does make you
• 12:16
  wonder how dystopian this is going to go.
• 12:19
  But I think it is becoming very clear, and especially as a
• 12:23
  Bitcoiner, as a Bitcoin only show, if Twitter does want to
• 12:27
  become the Everything app, the best form of money it should
• 12:30
  embrace is Twitter. There's less loopholes, there's
• 12:33
  less obstacles to just deploying Bitcoin on their platform, but
• 12:38
  do we know what's going to happen?
• 12:39
  Not really. And there is some contention on
• 12:42
  what exactly Elon is doing. So I did see some tweets here
• 12:47
  and it really makes you think and I think adds a little more
• 12:49
  context on to what exactly is going on.
• 12:52
  Of course we have the Watcher guru tweet here and he goes X,
• 12:55
  aka Twitter, obtains license required for crypto payments and
• 12:57
  trading and shouts out to Chris Black and he goes license
• 13:01
  required for crypto payments. Laughing emojis.
• 13:04
  And then we have LP Capital Chi and he goes classic Elon and
• 13:08
  it's a quote tweet from Elon July 13, 2021.
• 13:12
  And Elon goes any money transmitter or other licenses
• 13:15
  needing to use this in USA And what's he commenting on?
• 13:18
  He's commenting on blue wallet and implementing the lightning
• 13:22
  dev kit. So is he going to be adding
• 13:25
  lightning? I don't know.
• 13:26
  We've been talking about this for a while, but you can see
• 13:28
  blue wallets response here. No, Elon Bitcoin Blue wallet,
• 13:33
  the Lightning developer Kip is non custodial, open source, just
• 13:36
  software running on your phone and you do not need a money
• 13:39
  transmitter license. So it really makes you think
• 13:41
  what exactly is planned for Twitter aka X?
• 13:46
  And again, you know, obviously as bitcoiners we get bullish
• 13:50
  when we hear this is like, oh, it's coming, you know, Twitter's
• 13:52
  going to embrace Bitcoin and finally we're going to get some,
• 13:57
  some global reach in Bitcoin. Because truly as a Bitcoin, we
• 14:00
  know that if Twitter embrace Bitcoin and they allowed a
• 14:03
  seamless integration of Bitcoin, that would not only do wonders
• 14:07
  for Bitcoin adoption, but it would be in the most epic move
• 14:12
  for Twitter. But hey, we know Elon Musk is
• 14:14
  trolled. We know he's a doge maxi.
• 14:16
  We know he doesn't really take Bitcoin seriously.
• 14:19
  At least it's public persona. I've heard rumors that privately
• 14:22
  he understands Bitcoin, he understands money.
• 14:25
  Well, publicly it seems to be different.
• 14:27
  But here's a take from Francis that I think is worth responding
• 14:31
  to worth mentioning. We got Francis Poulier, aka the
• 14:34
  CEO and creator Bull Bitcoin in Canada and he goes, Twitter's
• 14:38
  probably developing in the internal payment system.
• 14:41
  Just a database moving Fiat numbers around.
• 14:43
  Possibly a Fiat on ramp slash off ramp for Twitter bucks.
• 14:46
  If we're lucky it will be just a Fiat balance, no shit.
• 14:49
  Coins related, almost no chance their license is for Bitcoin.
• 14:53
  You don't need a license to accept Bitcoin payments as a
• 14:56
  merchant, and they don't. Neither do they do payouts.
• 14:59
  No need for a money transmitter license for that either.
• 15:02
  So very interesting stuff going on right now.
• 15:06
  The one thing we know for sure is that Twitter has obtained the
• 15:10
  license for Money transmitter to become a money transmitter.
• 15:14
  And where is this going? Are they going to roll out
• 15:17
  Bitcoin? Are they trying to do this all
• 15:19
  legally? Are they going to roll out on
• 15:21
  shit coins on the platform? It does seem like they will.
• 15:25
  If they do embrace Bitcoin to start, it will be a Bitcoin
• 15:28
  slash shitcoin type product obviously because we know Elon
• 15:31
  is a huge Doge fan so I'm guessing there will be some shit
• 15:34
  corner that's being involved. But will it?
• 15:37
  Will this just be a full Fiat payment platform?
• 15:40
  I think only Time or town is someone that is a bitcoiner.
• 15:43
  We've covered the story for a while.
• 15:45
  We've doubled down on the idea that if Twitter really wants to
• 15:49
  innovate, then they need to embrace Bitcoin.
• 15:52
  Obviously, Bitcoin is the digital money for the digital
• 15:54
  world. Twitter is basically the town
• 15:57
  square of social media, the town square of communication, and if
• 16:01
  they want to do this correctly then they should embrace
• 16:04
  Bitcoin. But again, should have could
• 16:06
  have, would have, don't exist. And only time will tell whether
• 16:10
  this gets rolled out Bitcoin only, or whether it'll be
• 16:13
  integrated with shit coins or whether it's just going to be a
• 16:15
  complete shit coin platform aka Fe out platform.
• 16:18
  But it is very interesting that Elon is doubling down on the
• 16:22
  Everything app and it's happening in real time and
• 16:25
  you're on the front lines. Anyways, Dell, we did kind of
• 16:28
  have a low key conversation about this in the beginning.
• 16:30
  What's your thoughts? And all this?
• 16:32
  Is this significant? Is this just us bitcoiners with
• 16:34
  more opium? Is this noise?
• 16:36
  What's your thoughts? It's definitely noise.
• 16:39
  There's always some amount of signal amid all the noise, but
• 16:43
  how much there is I I have no idea.
• 16:45
  It's like I commented on on Monday when you played that clip
• 16:49
  from Christine Lizard saying how or I'm sorry, my apologies off
• 16:53
  the Chrissy Lizard when she was saying how.
• 16:57
  Was it? We've taken everything into
• 16:58
  account. Like everything.
• 16:59
  Everything entails a lot of things.
• 17:01
  So the chances that you did that is exactly 0.
• 17:04
  There's zero chance that you took everything into account.
• 17:06
  And even if you took everything, not that it's possible, but even
• 17:09
  if you did take every known thing into account, everything
• 17:11
  that happened from this moment, right now that I'm speaking and
• 17:14
  prior, you still cannot possibly account for the things coming
• 17:18
  down the line. And I'm saying this because we
• 17:20
  have no idea what Elon Musk is planning.
• 17:22
  Yes, as you said, we don't. You don't need a money
• 17:24
  transmitter license, You don't need anything to move Bitcoin
• 17:26
  around. All you have to have is some
• 17:29
  sort of wallet, some amount of Bitcoin that you can move and
• 17:32
  then somebody able to accept it. That's it, that you just need
• 17:35
  those things. You need three active or not
• 17:38
  even active 3 three pieces, two people that are willing or more
• 17:41
  to to transact with this money, and then the money to transact
• 17:45
  with. So if a store says we accept
• 17:47
  Bitcoin and you have some Bitcoin, if you want to use X at
• 17:51
  the time to do that, and you have some on there, then sure, I
• 17:55
  suppose that might be an option along with Fiat, along with the
• 17:58
  doge along with some other nonsense on there.
• 18:01
  And we all know the bitcoin's going to win at the end of the
• 18:03
  day, so who cares what they mess around with if he has it on
• 18:06
  there. But the store doesn't have to
• 18:07
  say oh, we only it doesn't make sense to say we only accept
• 18:12
  payments. In Bitcoin from X, that'd be
• 18:14
  like saying we only accept U.S. dollar from Visa and some stores
• 18:19
  might say we don't accept this or we don't accept that because
• 18:21
  of the fees are so high, but the fees are what they are.
• 18:24
  With Bitcoin there is just one fee.
• 18:25
  Like I can look over here and see if the on chain transaction
• 18:29
  fee is 15 for that, but that's on chain.
• 18:31
  Stores aren't going to be moving things around on chain.
• 18:33
  You're going to be using Lightning, you're going to be
• 18:34
  using some second layer. So it doesn't make sense.
• 18:37
  Oh, we're going to accept Lightning only from X.
• 18:40
  What is? What is the store care?
• 18:41
  You're going, you're going to say nobody else can pay, Come
• 18:44
  on. So what this means down the road
• 18:48
  remains to be seen. But it is bullish that it's
• 18:52
  being talked about. And once again, and as we're
• 18:54
  commonly saying here, the Overton window is shifting, more
• 18:57
  and more people are going, what is money, how does it work and
• 19:01
  what is going on when when people are saying this over here
• 19:04
  and how is that, how is a Elon going to change things or how
• 19:06
  what is what's going to happen over here?
• 19:08
  All that matters is people are starting to question money and
• 19:11
  why they're being stolen from and how they pay is kind of a an
• 19:16
  irrelevant point. Let's go.
• 19:18
  Everyone in the chat is doubling down on Bitcoin is peer-to-peer
• 19:21
  and it doesn't need Twitter X or Elon Musk cuz he's a shit
• 19:24
  coiner. I fully agree, but this does do
• 19:28
  something for the normie brains out there.
• 19:30
  You know, like the the Normies out there still for lack better
• 19:34
  terms and for better or we're still thinking and and looking
• 19:39
  towards authority figures for them to embrace new technology.
• 19:42
  This is just where we are right now.
• 19:44
  So we'll see, we'll see how this goes and we'll keep covering
• 19:47
  this. But anyway, Sandy Waves, what's
• 19:48
  your thoughts on all this? I think definitely he's gonna
• 19:52
  accept cheatcoins and This is why he needs permission, because
• 19:57
  who needs permission to use only Bitcoin, so definitely.
• 20:03
  He's going to accept a lot of shit going there and you know
• 20:06
  there has a lot of shit goingers and people who use Fiat.
• 20:11
  So definitely is the why he is asking for that, Yeah.
• 20:16
  Yeah, definitely love it. Sandy's so toxic.
• 20:20
  Let's go like she's she's. Not wrong.
• 20:24
  He's going to give the people what they want.
• 20:26
  And if there are in in totality more shit Coiners than
• 20:30
  Bitcoiners and they're saying, hey, we want to be able to move
• 20:32
  this stuff around, Okay. Fine, play around, play your
• 20:35
  stupid games. You're going to win a lot of
• 20:36
  stupid prizes as time goes on, but eventually come around to
• 20:39
  Bitcoin just gives us more time to stack cheap SAT, so have at
• 20:42
  it. That's the signal there more
• 20:44
  time for you to stack Sats. Anyways guys, before we get into
• 20:47
  the news for today, of course go to B dot tc slash conference and
• 20:53

  Anyways, let's get into the news cuz we got a lot to talk about
• 21:35
  the Daily News. First and foremost, before I
• 21:42
  move in, shouts out to our boy Brian de Mint, who wrote the
• 21:45
  Bitcoin Evangelism book. Have you ever struggled to
• 21:48
  answer your skeptical no corners, friends, objections?
• 21:51
  Is your Aunt Edna worried that Bitcoin is the currency of the
• 21:55
  Antichrist? Do your shit coiner friends dunk
• 21:58
  on you because they're like my shit going so much faster, you
• 22:02
  know, as a guy at work who's still a no coiner?
• 22:05
  Still trying to dunk on you because we are not at all time
• 22:07
  high? Well, get Bitcoin Evangelism on
• 22:09
  Amazon. Scan the QR code to grab a copy
• 22:12
  today. Or if you're on Orange Pell app,
• 22:14
  you can paint stats, Reach out to Brian Demitt directly and get
• 22:18
  yourself a copy. Anyways, guys, let's jump into
• 22:21
  the news. So before I give you guys the
• 22:23
  news, I want to lay some context because this is something we've
• 22:27
  been talking about. We've said it so many times on
• 22:29
  the show. That if you align incentives in
• 22:32
  your country, if you offer free market solutions, then you will
• 22:37
  attract capital. You will attract the smartest
• 22:38
  people in the world. And not only that, but your
• 22:41
  country will improve. And Bukele has constantly shown
• 22:45
  that El Salvador is improving. I think it's been what, two
• 22:48
  years? So hey, I hear my boy in the
• 22:50
  chat saying two years is not enough data points.
• 22:53
  I agree bro, but it's showing signs of improvement and you
• 22:56
  cannot deny this. So give some context here.
• 22:59
  This was March 23rd, 2023, El Salvador President aka Naive
• 23:03
  Bukele to eliminate all income, property and capital gains taxes
• 23:07
  on technology innovations. And then we covered this the
• 23:10
  other. The other day, what was this
• 23:12
  August 15th? So at the beginning of this
• 23:13
  month on Bloomberg, there's an article Bitcoin touting
• 23:17
  Bokelli's bond rally Draws JP Morgan.
• 23:20
  And again, just to rephrase and rehash this El Salvador
• 23:23
  president, naive Bokelli scared off many on Wall Street by
• 23:26
  embracing Bitcoin. But two years later the bond
• 23:28
  rally he's overseeing is proving too lucrative to resist.
• 23:32
  And then yesterday, or was this this morning?
• 23:35
  Yesterday we got this news from naive Bokelli.
• 23:39
  Google plans to establish operations in El Salvador, and I
• 23:43
  got you the official press release, but we also got Google
• 23:46
  Clouds tweet here and it goes. We're partnering with
• 23:48
  Presidentia SV, aka El Salvador, to build a technological hub in
• 23:54
  Central America. We will open an office and bring
• 23:56
  digital infrastructure to El Salvador with cloud tech at the
• 24:00
  center of the country's modernization in areas like
• 24:02
  government services, healthcare and education.
• 24:05
  And you can see Bukele and I don't know exactly who this is,
• 24:09
  but I'm. Guessing it's like the CEO of
• 24:10
  Google Cloud, they're signing the paperwork, they signed it
• 24:14
  into action and they have committed to this.
• 24:16
  So let's get into this press release so we can get over some
• 24:20
  of the details. And here we're on Google Cloud
• 24:23
  Press corner and it goes. Google plans to establish
• 24:25
  operations in El Salvador. And just getting into the meat.
• 24:30
  Google, Cloud and the government of El Salvador announced today a
• 24:32
  multiyear agreement to support the country in its journey to
• 24:35
  become a technological hub in Central America based on.
• 24:39
  Mutually agreed upon conditions. Google Cloud plans to establish
• 24:43
  a local entity in a Google Cloud office in the Republic of El
• 24:46
  Salvador, initiate a Google Distributed Cloud instance for
• 24:49
  the country which will bring infrastructure closer to well El
• 24:52
  Salvador's data is generated and set up a Cloud Center of
• 24:55
  Excellence to offer technical guidance to businesses and
• 24:59
  organizations on how to achieve the greatest benefits from cloud
• 25:02
  technology and innovations throughout this seven-year
• 25:05
  strategic partnership, pending legislative approval, Google
• 25:08
  Cloud and the. Government of El Salvador will
• 25:10
  work together to put cloud technologies at the center of
• 25:13
  countries modernization efforts in three distinct areas.
• 25:17
  And just to lay out the areas we have digital government you can
• 25:21
  see Google Cloud will be El Salvador strategic innovation
• 25:24
  partner helping a securely digitized government processes
• 25:27
  and projects including electronic invoicing, permitting
• 25:30
  and other initiatives. El Salvador will be using
• 25:33
  Google's distributed cloud as the foundation for this
• 25:35
  transformation and you can see I highlighted here Google Clouds
• 25:39
  delivery. Of GDC and El Salvador makes it
• 25:41
  the first Latin American government to benefit from this
• 25:44
  powerful cloud technology. Second, we have healthcare to
• 25:47
  support the country's efforts to deliver world class healthcare
• 25:50
  to residents. They're also doing this and then
• 25:53
  education, a commitment to implement a unified education
• 25:57
  data. Platform providing
• 25:59
  administrators, educators, parents, and public education
• 26:01
  leadership the capabilities to receive timely, efficient and
• 26:04
  consistent information. This announcement advances the
• 26:07
  country's modernization efforts that began in 2021 when El
• 26:11
  Salvador's Education Ministry and the country's Department of
• 26:14
  Innovation adopted Google Workspace as its main
• 26:17
  collaboration platform for 83 government agencies and more
• 26:20
  than 1.5 million students and teachers.
• 26:23
  And before I wrap this out, we have a few quotes here, one by
• 26:25
  Naive Bukell and it goes. El Salvador is moving forward.
• 26:29
  We believe technology and foreign investment are key for
• 26:32
  development. We are quickly becoming a hub
• 26:34
  for innovation. This groundbreaking alliance
• 26:36
  with Google Cloud opens unprecedented avenues for
• 26:39
  innovation, economic growth, and enhanced public services.
• 26:43
  Google's global expertise, combined with El Salvador's
• 26:46
  audacity, is set to redefine the technological landscape, said
• 26:50
  Nayeem Bukele, president of Republic of El Salvador.
• 26:53
  And next we have Google Cloud CEO Thomas Korean.
• 26:56
  And he goes, we look forward to working hand in hand with El
• 26:59
  Salvador to foster technological development in Central America.
• 27:03
  Access to cloud computing has dramatically expanded across
• 27:07
  industries and regions throughout the world, enabling
• 27:09
  both small companies and the public sector to utilize the
• 27:12
  very same applications and services.
• 27:14
  In more mature markets, cloud computing can truly transform
• 27:17
  Latin America and we look forward to exploring the full
• 27:20
  potential of these possibilities in El Salvador, benefiting its
• 27:23
  citizens and boosting economic development.
• 27:25
  And these efforts are aligned with Google's commitment to
• 27:27
  collaborate in the creation of a solid digital future for Latin
• 27:31
  America now. Obviously as a Bitcoin and
• 27:34
  shouts at the Steven Love cut because he he summarized it
• 27:36
  perfectly in a tweet and he goes Google establishing operations
• 27:40
  in El Salvador is entirely due to their adoption of Bitcoin and
• 27:43
  I'm not going to pretend otherwise.
• 27:45
  I think that's probably the reigning sentiment for us as
• 27:48
  well, but it's something we talk about here on the show all the
• 27:51
  time. Bitcoin's incentives are aligned
• 27:54
  and free markets will truly innovate.
• 27:58
  And if you create an environment where.
• 28:03
  Entrepreneurs where companies can innovate, they can
• 28:06
  experiment, they can have the least amount of frictions in
• 28:10
  your country. Then you will attract the
• 28:11
  capital. You will, you will attract the
• 28:14
  smartest people in the world. And look, I know you guys in the
• 28:17
  Chatham, I can't even see you guys right now.
• 28:19
  But I'm, I can only guess that you guys are being a little
• 28:21
  concerned about Google because they are you know the big one of
• 28:25
  the biggest corporations in the world.
• 28:26
  They are one of the biggest. I don't know what what you say
• 28:30
  it like KYC trackers in the world they're they're building
• 28:33
  that a I to attract everything we're doing.
• 28:35
  And yes, there is some concern about it being headed towards a
• 28:39
  dystopian authoritarian route, tyrannical route.
• 28:42
  But I think it further proves that if you create an
• 28:46
  environment where companies can come, they can innovate.
• 28:49
  And again, This is why I started with the beginning of El
• 28:52
  Salvador, eliminating income, property and capital gains taxes
• 28:56
  on technology innovations, You attract businesses.
• 28:59
  And of course, doubling down on that getting the bitcoiners
• 29:03
  takes we have John Carvalho here and he goes, this is nice for
• 29:06
  users, but you also have a chance to bootstrap a
• 29:08
  peer-to-peer economy instead of give all of your country's data
• 29:11
  to the US government. So yes, there is that concern
• 29:16
  about Google. Remember, what was Google's old
• 29:19
  model like? Don't be evil.
• 29:21
  Yeah, do no evil or do no harm. Something like that.
• 29:23
  I know, as bitcoiners. And as a privacy advocates and
• 29:29
  people that don't really like KYC, we're kind of like OK, I
• 29:35
  don't know how I feel about Google going down to El
• 29:37
  Salvador, but it still remains the same that if you provide
• 29:42
  incentive for companies to come into your country, it will
• 29:46
  further not only benefit the people around there, but it will
• 29:49
  further benefit technology. And so you know again, guys.
• 29:53
  Maybe two years isn't enough yet to prove that Bukele is really,
• 29:58
  really changing things in in Central America and El Salvador
• 30:01
  itself. But it goes to show that if you
• 30:05
  try to stop innovation, it will just get rounded around.
• 30:08
  And if you embrace innovation, then you will attract the
• 30:12
  smartest people. You will attract capital.
• 30:14
  And so this is something that Nico and I just love to see.
• 30:17
  You know, we are both Latinos. We both love seeing El Salvador
• 30:21
  improve their country. We we have multiple, multiple
• 30:25
  examples of people that are going back to El Salvador that
• 30:28
  say nothing but nice things about Bukele and the country and
• 30:32
  what they're doing. So I think this is just more
• 30:34
  signal and more signs that they are actually improving that.
• 30:38
  But Kelly really is a revolutionary that he's doing
• 30:40
  incredible things for his country.
• 30:42
  And and I'm just reminded of the conversation I had with Stacy
• 30:45
  and Max at Austin. And just there, there was a
• 30:49
  point in this press release that that literally triggered the
• 30:53
  thought of what Stacy always says of just how profound and
• 30:59
  forward-looking Bukelle is. And it's right here.
• 31:02
  It's the idea Google's global expertise combined with El
• 31:05
  Salvador's audacity. Is set to redefine the
• 31:08
  technological landscape of not only El Salvador but Central
• 31:12
  America. And I don't know that's just one
• 31:14
  of these bullish things that are happening in real time that you
• 31:18
  just makes you wonder, man, especially as an American that
• 31:21
  lives in America. It's just like, man, I I really
• 31:24
  do wish that our government would stop fighting Bitcoin
• 31:26
  would stop fighting technology because they're so afraid of the
• 31:29
  regulatory mode and embracing technology.
• 31:32
  Of course, there is the concern about.
• 31:35
  We'll, we'll call it the bureaucratic state combining
• 31:38
  with technology and the fears of a dystopian authoritarian
• 31:43
  society that again, connecting this with the WeChat and the X
• 31:48
  Twitter Everything app. You know, there's ways that you
• 31:52
  can make this be negative. There's also ways that this can
• 31:55
  be a positive thing. I think this is one of those
• 31:58
  things that it's just going to be a time.
• 31:59
  Only time will tell. Where are we headed?
• 32:02
  I don't know, but all I know is that Bitcoin entrepreneurs out
• 32:04
  there are redefining the technological landscape.
• 32:08
  And what do we always say? You better get on board because
• 32:10
  Bitcoin will out innovate bureaucracy.
• 32:13
  And here we're seeing Maine, you know, El Salvador, even though
• 32:17
  they're our government, they're they're innovating and they're
• 32:21
  doing some great, great things. But Dell, let's get your takes
• 32:24
  before we get Sandys, because I I really want to get the local
• 32:28
  perspective of this. But Dell, what's your thoughts
• 32:30
  on this? I think it's just like you said
• 32:32
  that Bitcoin and incentives are going to find a way.
• 32:36
  I mean, I've seen this in video games 1000 times.
• 32:39
  The developers try and do something and the players figure
• 32:41
  out a new way to abuse the system.
• 32:43
  Like that's that's what players are going to do.
• 32:45
  There's certain laws and that's there's laws of the universe,
• 32:49
  there's laws of gravity, there's the laws of physics, and we are
• 32:52
  constantly trying to find ways to break them.
• 32:54
  Are we supposed to have electricity?
• 32:56
  I don't know. It's not what Caveman had.
• 32:58
  They didn't have machines and all the stuff doing work for
• 33:01
  them. So we found ways to break the
• 33:03
  laws of the of physical reality and make it work in our favor.
• 33:07
  So when there's money to be made, companies like Google are
• 33:09
  going to go to where the incentives are.
• 33:12
  Love it. Love it.
• 33:13
  OK. Sandy, what's your thoughts on
• 33:15
  this? You are an El Salvadorian
• 33:17
  yourself. How's this make you feel?
• 33:21
  If like I have two opinions about these like for example
• 33:25
  yesterday when I saw the post about that, it's like Google is
• 33:29
  coming here and it's gonna have all our data from El Salvador.
• 33:33
  So it's like okay. I thought Bitcoin is
• 33:37
  decentralized and you know it's nobody knows your client and
• 33:42
  everything like that. So I was thinking like okay,
• 33:46
  innovation, technological and El somebody is attracting all these
• 33:50
  technological companies, investing in El Salvador and
• 33:54
  infrastructure. And when I saw that I was like,
• 33:58
  I don't like it, but at the same time I'm thinking like these
• 34:02
  people invested in the country. So this company is going to hire
• 34:06
  a lot of people and you know, in this country it's really
• 34:09
  difficult to go to any place from the government.
• 34:13
  And even if it's not from the government because our data is
• 34:16
  still on papers like old school. So you go to the major office
• 34:21
  and you need your certificate, birth certificate.
• 34:24
  So they had to go through a lot of papers and files.
• 34:28
  Like I don't know in your country how many years ago you
• 34:31
  didn't have that, but here you go and you take hours to get
• 34:35
  that. So if you go to have your ID,
• 34:37
  renovate your ID, because you lost it, because you break it,
• 34:40
  somebody rub it anyway, anything.
• 34:45
  So you have to be spending a lot of time there because our data
• 34:49
  is still on papers. If you go to the hospital that
• 34:53
  you still have all your medical record on papers.
• 34:56
  And if you have to go in another hospital because another reason
• 35:01
  they have to send the documentation in a motorcycle.
• 35:05
  It's not like they just can and send your dad.
• 35:07
  And no, it takes days, probably months to get appointment on the
• 35:12
  doctor. So I think there's like pros and
• 35:16
  cons about Google close coming here and having all the
• 35:19
  documentation, information, data from us.
• 35:23
  Anyway, you know, we agree about the when you download any app
• 35:30
  from Google, you agree about that.
• 35:34
  So anyway, they have our data and we're giving a little bit
• 35:37
  more data, but I think it's going to improve our system.
• 35:43
  So we're going to be a technological company already.
• 35:46
  You know, we have technological money, the best money.
• 35:49
  And now things are going to be easier.
• 35:52
  And we have a lot of foreigners, we're located to the country.
• 35:54
  So it's going to be like easier for them.
• 35:56
  Also because if you come here, you're like in an old school
• 36:01
  country, like I don't know is everything is, is when you go to
• 36:06
  Europe or United States and Euro Salvador and you're like, oh
• 36:09
  wow, this is how works here. And then you come back to your
• 36:13
  country and it's like, oh shit, oh sorry for that.
• 36:17
  So that's. You can catch.
• 36:19
  It's all right. Don't worry about it.
• 36:20
  Don't worry about it. It's it's because the feeling of
• 36:22
  being in like a really not technological country, the
• 36:28
  feeling is weird when you know how it works in another country.
• 36:33
  And anyway, like I told you, they have all their data.
• 36:38
  Yeah, yeah, I think that's obviously the main concern is
• 36:43
  like you said you know I I personally try to use cloud as
• 36:46
  as minimal as possible. I I don't have any kind of cloud
• 36:50
  set up but but I'm starting to think of like the start nine set
• 36:54
  up where like I become my own cloud server.
• 36:56
  But anyway that's a totally other tangent but it really is
• 36:59
  that's, that's the main concern here, you know.
• 37:01
  Yes, on the one hand, like you said.
• 37:06
  Revolutionizing technology, modernizing the infrastructure
• 37:10
  in El Salvador obviously is going to be beneficial for the
• 37:13
  country. But also like you said, giving
• 37:17
  Google all your all the access to all your information is
• 37:20
  obviously a very scary thing. So again, it's kind of one of
• 37:25
  these things like is this, is this bullish news, is this going
• 37:29
  to be better for the country, is this going to be detrimental to
• 37:31
  the country to to the citizens privacy?
• 37:34
  It's one of these things where it's it's hard to tell.
• 37:37
  Maybe it's because we all don't really like Google too much,
• 37:39
  where we're kind of like, it makes me feel like this is a
• 37:44
  good thing, but maybe it's a bad thing.
• 37:45
  But nonetheless, I think it still goes to show that if you
• 37:50
  create a space, an environment where technology companies and
• 37:54
  individuals can come to your country, you will attract the
• 37:58
  best and the brightest. And hey, for better or worse,
• 38:01
  Google is. You know, some of the best and
• 38:03
  the brightest out there, they have a lot of capital and they
• 38:05
  see an opportunity. So it's it'll be interesting and
• 38:08
  it's something I think it's Elaine said in the chat that you
• 38:12
  know, Bitcoin has a way of of changing people's minds so well,
• 38:17
  you know, we said in the past, well will Bitcoin change
• 38:20
  BlackRock? Only time will tell.
• 38:22
  Will Bitcoin change Google? Probably not, but only time will
• 38:26
  tell. You know, as the saying goes,
• 38:29
  there is a lot of concern about the Kelly down there and what
• 38:31
  he's actually trying to do. But it seems like he's doing and
• 38:35
  trying to achieve good things for the country.
• 38:37
  And you know, it's just awesome to see as as just the third
• 38:41
  person observer, it's like, OK, he's making moves.
• 38:43
  He's actually trying to change the country to improve the
• 38:45
  country, which I don't think many politicians can claim
• 38:49
  anyways. Doug, do you want to jump in
• 38:50
  here or do you want to jump straight into the culture?
• 38:53

  and Sandy Waves, of course. If you're not in Europe, if
• 39:36
  you're on the West Coast of the United States, come hang out
• 39:39
  with us October 5th through 6th in sunny LA at Pacific Bitcoin
• 39:43
  Festival last year. It was super awesome.
• 39:45
  I can't wait to go back to the hangar.
• 39:47
  I will be hanging out with some family over there as well.
• 39:49
  So I'm excited to get back to the West Coast right now.
• 39:52
  And of course man, get yourself a ticket.
• 39:54
  We want to hang out with you. This is a celebration of
• 39:57
  Bitcoin. All your favorite bitcoiners
• 39:58
  will be there and you can get a ticket today $600.00 General
• 40:02
  admission. If you want the Whole VIP
• 40:04
  treatment, $2900 but. The most important thing to do,
• 40:08
  guys, is to get around other bitcoiners, to continue to build
• 40:12
  these relationships in real life.
• 40:14
  Because you never know, maybe maybe you're going to meet a
• 40:16
  bitcoiner at these conferences at this festival that you can
• 40:19
  create a Bitcoin company with. Or maybe you just build some
• 40:23
  lifelong friends. Anyways, Dell, what you got on
• 40:25
  the docket for us? Well, the the biggest speaker
• 40:28
  that's going to be, well, he's not all that big.
• 40:30
  He's like 5-5. It's not that big.
• 40:32
  Oh, we're doing this. Yeah, why not?
• 40:34
  All right, do it. All right, plug.
• 40:36
  It as I know, as far as I know, it's not 100% locked in, but
• 40:39
  it's looking pretty locked in that Dell para right here.
• 40:42
  The Hoddle Sapien will be at Pacific Bitcoin as a speaker and
• 40:46
  when I say a speaker, I mean I will be there talking to people.
• 40:50
  I probably won't get up on a stage speaking.
• 40:53
  But I will be talking. I will not be mute.
• 40:55
  So technically speaking, I will be a speaker at Pacific Bitcoin.
• 41:00
  You ready for that? Yeah.
• 41:01
  So you don't want to shake my hand, give me a hug, Whatever.
• 41:03
  Pat me on the head. I'm short.
• 41:04
  I'm like a Hobbit. You can do that.
• 41:07
  Give me a hug. You're shaking my hand.
• 41:08
  You cracked me up. Alright, Doug, get to the bit.
• 41:11
  Get to the culture. OK, All right.
• 41:13
  So Sandy, I'm going to pull up your website here and leave me a
• 41:16
  second to do do do go to here Actually before you do that
• 41:23
  Dell, can we Sandy, can you just tell us your Bitcoin rabbit hole
• 41:28
  story? Cuz people really love hearing
• 41:29
  how other people found Bitcoin. Yeah, definitely.
• 41:36
  Okay it was look down before look down.
• 41:40
  I had a fashion designer company, a clothing designer.
• 41:46
  How could Thor Designer? So the president said that we
• 41:50
  going to be locked down and the kind of company that I had at
• 41:55
  the time cannot work at the time because we don't need clothes
• 41:59
  when we're going to be locked down.
• 42:02
  So I celebrity and I moved to the beach first day of
• 42:05
  quarantine. So being here, I learn English.
• 42:09
  I sign up in a English lesson online and every day I had like
• 42:14
  45 minutes. Class.
• 42:17
  And I had to practice more English.
• 42:19
  So I was just outside of my house at the time and I met a
• 42:25
  bunch of people foreign. So it's like, OK, let's practice
• 42:27
  English. And one of this guy was just
• 42:30
  talking, complaining about the government, the world, The Who,
• 42:36
  the web. And I was like, Oh my God, this
• 42:39
  man is complaining for everything, complaining about
• 42:42
  the money, the inflation. But is, you know, is.
• 42:46
  Like, OK, you are just practicing your English.
• 42:50
  And he was talking to me about Bitcoin and I was like Bitcoin
• 42:55
  OK And I asked him, well he does for living and he told me he
• 42:59
  wanted to sell a Bitcoin ATM in El Tunco.
• 43:02
  Tunco is the beach that I live in, a libertarian Salvador, and
• 43:07
  I moved to the place the first day of quarantine.
• 43:10
  So I was like, who the hell is good now by Bitcoin in El Tunco?
• 43:16
  You know who bought Bitcoin in El Tuco?
• 43:19
  It's me. But at the time I was like, this
• 43:22
  is the first time that I heard about Bitcoin and I was like
• 43:25
  very interesting. And I remember one day the
• 43:28
  president, like couple of months later, he said that he's going
• 43:32
  to accept Bitcoin as a currency. And I hate the idea about
• 43:39
  accepting Bitcoin as a currency, because in the past we have
• 43:43
  colonies. Yeah, Salvadorian colones.
• 43:46
  And I remember I was still young.
• 43:49
  Like really, really young. Not that I'm not young.
• 43:53
  I mean, I was younger than now and he and at the time I
• 44:00
  remember they change everything so fast.
• 44:03
  So there's a lot of people who like they don't read or they
• 44:09
  don't do numbers, math, so they don't go to school, so.
• 44:14
  They don't have electricity or it's like, you know, we are
• 44:17
  still a poor country improving a lot and fast.
• 44:21
  But when this happened like 2020 probably you have to learn how
• 44:28
  to convert colonists to dollars. So nobody's going to review of
• 44:33
  and it was really difficult for a lot of people.
• 44:35
  I was young, little little kid, so it was easy for me.
• 44:41
  But I was thinking, okay, now it's technological money and we
• 44:45
  have to convert dollars to technological money.
• 44:47
  And I thought he was just going to change in couple of days,
• 44:51
  weeks, months, probably. But.
• 44:55
  And I was worried about those people who doesn't have
• 44:59
  technological stuff, Internet phones and my grandma, for
• 45:04
  example. But then I learned how to do it,
• 45:08
  and he's like, it's so easy. It's so easy to pay with
• 45:11
  Bitcoin. It's so easy does a bit can,
• 45:13
  it's so easy to buy Bitcoin. So he made a new app, the new
• 45:17
  Wallet, that is an wallet only for Salvadorians, or at least
• 45:21
  for people who has a citizenship.
• 45:24
  So if you have an ID Salvadorian ID, you can download the Achebo
• 45:27
  app that is Achebo Wallet, so you can sell Bitcoin there and
• 45:32
  you can just send around the world, no matter if it's from
• 45:36
  Chibo to another wallet. So I learned how to do it and I
• 45:39
  was like, Oh my God, I love it. And something that I like it is
• 45:43
  like okay, I can accept it going as a payment and nobody's going
• 45:47
  to track the money that I'm accepting my payments and
• 45:51
  everything. So no taxes And it's like, oh, I
• 45:54
  like it because in the past my company, I had to pay taxes and
• 45:58
  even the we don't have like big amount of taxes, this is still
• 46:02
  taxes. I don't want to pay taxes.
• 46:05
  And I learned how to do it, and I like it.
• 46:10
  I fall in love to Bitcoin. So that was my first step to the
• 46:14
  rabbit hole. And then into Bitcoin.
• 46:17
  I was like, Oh my God, going down and down.
• 46:20
  So I was learning more about the money, the politicians, the
• 46:26
  world, the story, health. And I fall in love about that.
• 46:32
  It was crazy, all these. So I'm teaching about Bitcoin to
• 46:35
  people who doesn't know or are scared about Bitcoin because we
• 46:40
  also have a lot of people who doesn't know the Bitcoin because
• 46:42
  they don't know how it works. So like, Long story short, this
• 46:47
  is my story and I was like, Oh my God now.
• 46:51
  I've got a quick question. Hold on.
• 46:53
  I absolutely love it. Absolutely love it.
• 46:55
  Jump in down. Did you?
• 47:00
  Did I understand this right? You didn't know English before
• 47:03
  the lockdowns? No, I didn't know.
• 47:06
  So you're on here talking and perfectly legible English in
• 47:10
  like 2 years. Makes me feel completely stupid
• 47:13
  that I can't go and pick up Spanish or something.
• 47:16
  I guess I'd have to practice, but man, that's that's amazing
• 47:19
  that you're here talking. I mean fully.
• 47:23
  It's like there's not have been a point where like, I have no
• 47:25
  idea what you're saying you. So yeah, that's that's the most
• 47:27
  impressive part of the whole story to me.
• 47:30
  Thank you so much. Love it.
• 47:33
  OK, before, before we go on to the project that you're working
• 47:36
  on, I I kind of want to double back and circle back on the idea
• 47:41
  of I I find it very interesting that you dislike Bitcoin
• 47:44
  originally and then you just then you just found out how easy
• 47:48
  it is to use Bitcoin. And this is what I try to tell
• 47:50
  everyone. It's like, it's so simple to use
• 47:52
  Bitcoin compared to what we're used to.
• 47:55
  And so personally, I love that that happened.
• 47:58
  But is this rippling out to other people in El Salvador?
• 48:02
  Like, what do people think of Bitcoin currently?
• 48:05
  Like when you're going around talking to people?
• 48:09
  It's difficult. It's depending on who I'm
• 48:12
  talking. For example, I'm trying to
• 48:14
  install the POS to different people so they can accept
• 48:17
  Bitcoin as a payment. And you know my clients.
• 48:20
  Are exclusive bitcoiners. I don't work for anyone who is
• 48:23
  not a bitcoiner because I want to get payment on Bitcoin and I
• 48:28
  can accept dollars. It's okay but only if the wallet
• 48:32
  or Internet is not working. But I'm explaining people how
• 48:37
  easy it is. So I have two phones, I have one
• 48:39
  phone charging over there who I have the POS and I have
• 48:44
  different POS. So I'm explaining in the basic
• 48:47
  way like Bitcoin for dummies. Like I'm explaining to my mom
• 48:52
  like mommy, this is Bitcoin. And Bitcoin works exactly like a
• 48:56
  bank account. It's electronical money.
• 48:58
  It's simple like that. It's like in the past you didn't
• 49:01
  know how to download the bank online account and it's the
• 49:05
  same. Download the app and now you can
• 49:09
  buy Bitcoin or you can accept Bitcoin and it's easier than
• 49:11
  that because you know banks only work like office schedule.
• 49:17
  But Pete can is 24 hours is around the world and I don't
• 49:20
  have to have permission to anybody to make like any amount
• 49:25
  of money transaction to different countries.
• 49:28
  Like I can send $5 I can send 5000 dollars $5,000,000 like any
• 49:36
  amount. Nobody's going to ask you what
• 49:38
  do you need this money to send it.
• 49:40
  Nobody is going to have frozen your.
• 49:44
  Bank account, your money. It's like it's my money.
• 49:48
  Of course if you have in your wallet, like not in an exchange
• 49:54
  by the way. So I'm doing this a passionate
• 49:59
  You love it. Absolutely love it.
• 50:03
  All right, Go on, go on Dow. What else?
• 50:06
  You have. I'm looking at my web page, by
• 50:09
  the way. I'm gonna improve my web page in
• 50:11
  probably two more months. I'm working on that.
• 50:14
  New logo, new image and my business is growing really fast.
• 50:21
  I had to improve and make the bookings and implement payments
• 50:24
  in my webpage. Make the reservation direct to
• 50:27
  the webpage. So love it.
• 50:33
  Okay for the audio listeners that aren't watching the video.
• 50:35
  What exactly is Sandy Waves? What are you working on?
• 50:38
  And it's just so awesome to see that Bitcoin is is opening up
• 50:41
  new avenues for you. But but what are you working on,
• 50:43
  Sandy? Okay.
• 50:45
  I'm a very social person. So when I was looked down, I
• 50:51
  realized that I have social skills and I love the beach, I
• 50:56
  love to travel, I love to go to different places, click the
• 51:00
  surface where, yeah, so you can see like you can schedule of
• 51:06
  this. So I'm surfing right now.
• 51:08
  And I'm going to mountains. And I was doing this because I
• 51:11
  love it. I love my country.
• 51:13
  It's really beautiful. It's amazing.
• 51:15
  And we have a lot of spot that is like nobody close there.
• 51:21
  So you can go and enjoy the time there.
• 51:23
  You can surf in beautiful waves. You know, like we have the best
• 51:27
  ways in the world. I probably the five best waves
• 51:30
  in the world. We have the ISIS surf
• 51:33
  competition here and I can take you all those places.
• 51:36
  We can go to volcanoes. Beach.
• 51:39
  So I was doing all this because I like my country and I was
• 51:42
  helping people finding it. Taxis, cabs, transportation,
• 51:48
  helping to rent a car. Like I was working after the
• 51:54
  lockdown in a hotel. So I was discovering that we
• 51:57
  have a lot of hotels in Saint Salvar in different places.
• 51:59
  So I realized that I I didn't need to work for somebody else
• 52:04
  and I can just open my own business.
• 52:07
  And I realized that is the best way to live.
• 52:10
  I can have my own schedule. I can meet more people, good
• 52:14
  people because our only bitcoiners.
• 52:16
  So I can tell you the one like 99% of the people that I met is
• 52:22
  very nice because our bitcoiners.
• 52:25
  So I managed all these guy help me with the web page.
• 52:31
  He showed me how to make my, so I made my own web page.
• 52:35
  I don't know how to make a web page in the past.
• 52:38
  And he told me, okay, Those are the tools, This is the language.
• 52:41
  And if you want to do something, just read this and you're going
• 52:44
  to do it for yourself. And just took like a couple of
• 52:48
  months. I was just sitting in my chair,
• 52:52
  my desk, and I did it for myself.
• 52:54
  So you see, now I'm going to pay for somebody else to make my own
• 52:59
  web page and implement the payments and everything like
• 53:02
  that. But.
• 53:04
  You know, if you want to discover the country like like
• 53:08
  you're a bitcoiner and you want to discover this country and pay
• 53:10
  with Bitcoin, let's close it with Bitcoin.
• 53:12
  Just come with me. Yes, I can show you how to live
• 53:16
  with Bitcoin Standard. I'm living with Bitcoin
• 53:18
  standard. So love it.
• 53:23
  Absolutely love it. A few things that come to mind.
• 53:26
  It's just incredible. And I and I say this all the
• 53:29
  time how Bitcoin as entrepreneur money once you're able to grasp
• 53:35
  the idea of Bitcoin you really are able to look at your skills
• 53:41
  and be like okay. I don't need someone else to do
• 53:45
  what I what I can offer the world.
• 53:46
  I can provide value and they pay me directly in Bitcoin and it
• 53:51
  it's just so awesome that you're a living example of this, that
• 53:54
  you're you what you just told us you learned English two years
• 53:57
  ago maybe three years ago you found Bitcoin all at the same
• 54:00
  time and now you're your own boss and you're doing tours of
• 54:04
  the country that you love and it's all on the Bitcoin
• 54:07
  standard. And I just think that's awesome.
• 54:09
  But Dell, before I rant more, you got any more questions or
• 54:13
  well, you got some comments? Does El Salvador have sonote
• 54:16
  caves? Thank you, Naomi.
• 54:20
  Well, I'm coming to you right here, yeah.
• 54:22
  Yes, I gotcha. Gotcha.
• 54:26
  Does El Salvador have sonote caves?
• 54:29
  No, repeat the question. The sonote caves where there's
• 54:33
  water and it's like a cave. I don't know how to describe it.
• 54:36
  It's a sonote is an underground chamber where The Cave, it's
• 54:39
  like it had been a cave, but then the roof falls and so
• 54:42
  there's water and but you can see the sky up above.
• 54:45
  There are those in, I know they're in the Yucatan
• 54:47
  Peninsula. I just didn't know if there was
• 54:48
  any in El Salvador. You have waterfall waves.
• 54:54
  OK. All right.
• 54:55
  Yeah, maybe we don't have this. And this is what I don't know
• 54:58
  about that. OK, no worries.
• 55:00
  Yeah. But we have beautiful places.
• 55:03
  Okay. Who understands Bitcoin easier,
• 55:05
  Children or adults? People who has open mind, it's
• 55:12
  simple like that. It's like if you open your mind,
• 55:14
  you can understand Bitcoin. But we have a lot of kids
• 55:17
  learning about Bitcoin and it's really easy to do it.
• 55:21
  And I explained to my mom how it works.
• 55:23
  Bitcoin so. I was telling her, okay, you
• 55:27
  want me to send you money. I can send you money, but I'm
• 55:30
  not going to send you Fiat. You have to download an app, a
• 55:33
  Bitcoin, and I'm going to send you money.
• 55:35
  I'm not sending you Fiat. No, no, no.
• 55:38
  So I'm sending payments. And I'm like like like he's
• 55:43
  like, you know, you have to understand people, read them the
• 55:47
  the people, so you can understand why they show us a
• 55:50
  Bitcoin. And one of my friends and I know
• 55:52
  that he's going to watch. This video, I asked him for a
• 55:57
  juice, vape juice and I told him, can you bring me the juice?
• 56:01
  But I'm going to send you the money so you know that I'm going
• 56:04
  to pay you. And he's like, no, no, no, you
• 56:06
  can pay me when I give you the juice.
• 56:10
  And when he was here, he's like, OK, I'm going to pay you.
• 56:12
  But I don't have cash, you know, I don't have cash.
• 56:15
  So can you download a wallet? And I'm going to pay you.
• 56:19
  And he's like, he was like should they did OK.
• 56:23
  Tell me how I can do it because I really want you to pay me.
• 56:26
  So he downloaded app now he's stuck and sad and I told him
• 56:30
  don't move your sad and he was putting on a stable sad and I'm
• 56:34
  like no don't do it just keep it on Bitcoin.
• 56:37
  And one day he told me, hey, Bitcoin is going up and he's
• 56:40
  like, I tell you and I'm teaching people like in that
• 56:44
  way, like I have a friend who has a bar and I I'm taking all
• 56:48
  my friends and my customer to the bar and I'm like.
• 56:52
  Just do me a favor, I'm telling to my clients, go and ask if he
• 56:56
  is accepting Bitcoin and he's like, okay, can we play you with
• 56:59
  Bitcoin? And he's like, no.
• 57:01
  And then he's just looking at me like, so I'm taking more
• 57:05
  bitcoiners and he's like, Okay. You know what?
• 57:07
  Just help me with that. How is Bitcoin working?
• 57:10
  And I download the app and he is accepting Bitcoin through the
• 57:13
  POS now. And I'm just trying to read
• 57:17
  people's mind like okay. How I'm going to make them to us
• 57:21
  a Bitcoin. Why they need Bitcoin.
• 57:23
  It's simple like that. It's like why my mom need to
• 57:26
  download the wallet thing. Why she needs to us a Bitcoin
• 57:29
  Okay. She want me to send money okay.
• 57:31
  I'm not going to send you feel just download the app and I'm
• 57:34
  going to send you and I can teach you so easy.
• 57:38
  And my friends is like okay. I'm like we going to the bar and
• 57:42
  I'm like okay. If you want me to pay for
• 57:44
  alcohol, okay. Down in the app, I'm going to
• 57:47
  send you Bitcoin. You're going to receive Bitcoin
• 57:48
  and you pay with dollars. Simple like that.
• 57:50
  And he's like, OK, you know what?
• 57:52
  We need more money to buy more alcohol for the party.
• 57:55
  And if we're going to pay with food, it's like, OK, I'm going
• 57:58
  to pay, but let's go to a place that has said Bitcoin.
• 58:01
  So I'm going to invite you and pick a place of said Bitcoin.
• 58:04
  And they are like, oh, I love it.
• 58:05
  And they are like, you know what?
• 58:07
  Bitcoin is so easy. And one day I told a friend that
• 58:10
  I was no that story is for my sister-in-law.
• 58:15
  It's my brother's wife. So I was telling him, Okay, I'm
• 58:18
  going to invite you to a coffee. Let's go for a coffee.
• 58:21
  And she told me Okay, perfect. And I told her you're going to
• 58:24
  pay it. But you told me that you're
• 58:25
  going to pay. Yes, but I'm going to give you
• 58:27
  the money. And so why you don't pay?
• 58:29
  Because you're going to pay with beef in this place.
• 58:31
  And she told me no, no, but I cannot.
• 58:33
  I don't have beef, but I don't know how it works.
• 58:35
  Okay, let's download the app. She download the app.
• 58:37
  Okay, I'm going to send you the money.
• 58:39
  So make receive bill an invoice. And she's like, okay, Teach me
• 58:46
  how okay, you press this button, then you press this amount, and
• 58:50
  now I'm going to scan your QR code.
• 58:53
  And she received it. And he's like, so easy.
• 58:55
  Yes. Now you're going to do the same.
• 58:57
  We're going to pay for the coffee.
• 58:59
  And she said exactly like I'm going to pay with Bitcoin.
• 59:04
  And the guy said, okay, perfect. She made the QR code and she
• 59:07
  just scan. And she told me it's so easy, so
• 59:12
  it's like takes like 8 minutes, 5 minutes, something like that
• 59:16
  to teach her how to down and enough how to receive a payment
• 59:20
  and how to make a payment. And you know, we have the Chibo
• 59:26
  ATM, I know we're from the government, but you still can
• 59:29
  buy Bitcoin zero fee. So it's like, who doesn't want
• 59:34
  to buy Bitcoin? Zero fee?
• 59:37
  Amazing. Amazing.
• 59:39
  You're doing more for Bitcoin adoption than I think we are
• 59:41
  doing. And you're doing and you're
• 59:43
  doing exactly what we tell people to do, which is just
• 59:46
  basically like, get Bitcoin into people's hands and they will
• 59:50
  realize how much easier it is to use it in their everyday life.
• 59:54
  And then after that, once they understand like, oh wait, it's
• 59:57
  not as hard or as complicated as I thought it was, then you start
• 1:00:00
  to give him like, yo. And if you save it, the number
• 1:00:03
  will go up, your wealth will increase.
• 1:00:06
  Anyways, before we move on Sandy, if someone is out there

• 1:00:55
  best lawyers, the best company, and if they want to live in El

• 1:01:54
  quick, but man, such an inspiring story.
• 1:01:57
  It's so awesome. Wow, Dell, I I really feel like
• 1:02:01
  we we need to do some more. We need to do more over here
• 1:02:05
  anyways anyway. We have more world tour like

  is the kind of the the the queen of the ball right now because of
• 1:02:13
  new Bokelli and all the legal tender and all that.
• 1:02:16
  But I'm sure there's stories of other parts of the world where
• 1:02:19
  that people have adopted Bitcoin.
• 1:02:22
  They've told their grandmother grandma whatever.
• 1:02:23

• 1:03:14
  This first. Actually, today's main review
• 1:03:16
  will be a little clunkier than usual because I wanted to put
• 1:03:19
  this video here by our boy RDBDC.
• 1:03:21
  But you already know the deal, guys.
• 1:03:23
  Tweet to the bullets. Memes are the artillery.
• 1:03:25
  We are in an information war. It is upon you, the individual,
• 1:03:29
  to spread the message to get Bitcoin into people's hands, to
• 1:03:34
  plant and incept the ideas of freedom.
• 1:03:37
  Money in their mind. And this is how we orange pill
• 1:03:41
  the world. So first and foremost.
• 1:03:44
  First and foremost, we got RDBTC.
• 1:03:46
  Let's, let's play this little video right here.
• 1:03:48
  And he goes hashtag Bitcoin. It's right now.
• 1:03:50
  Punching bears. Hey, bear.
• 1:03:53
  I don't want to have to tell you again.
• 1:03:54
  Get the hell out of here. All right, Get out of here.
• 1:03:57
  Get. Son of a bitch.
• 1:03:58
  Get out of here. OK.
• 1:04:03
  All right. Sorry.
• 1:04:03
  You know. Hey, bear.
• 1:04:05
  Hunting season, I think, is over.
• 1:04:08
  And the Cates are winning out there as we stack them.
• 1:04:12
  Sat. All right.
• 1:04:14
  Getting back to these other memes, guys.
• 1:04:16
  This next meme, this was dropped in our Telegram group.
• 1:04:19
  It looks like it's Matt Odell's Gnoster account, though, But it
• 1:04:23
  is a meme, and someone screenshotted it and dropped it
• 1:04:25
  into our telegramgroup.t.meslashsimplybitcoinasyoucanseeitisodell@werunbtc.com.
• 1:04:34
  And I think this is the prevailing sentiment right now
• 1:04:37
  of everyone in the Bitcoin space.
• 1:04:41
  We have the crying pink whoa, Jack of 25 K it's so over.
• 1:04:47
  And then it pumps to 27 K and it's the smiling.
• 1:04:49
  Well, Jack, we're back. We're so back.
• 1:04:51
  And then we go to 30. We're just we're so back right
• 1:04:54
  now. And then it drops back down to
• 1:04:56
  27 K and it's over. It's absolutely over.
• 1:04:59
  And then it hits 25 K and it's really done for, guys.
• 1:05:02
  Bitcoin obituaries just continue to come in strong.
• 1:05:07
  This is, this is the Bible we're feeling right now.
• 1:05:08
  I'm sure we're all having like emotional fluctuations right now
• 1:05:12
  as the price moves up but couple $1000 and we're like we're so
• 1:05:15
  back. Anyways, again on the same thing
• 1:05:19
  we have Dylan Leclair on Twitter and he goes hashtag or money?
• 1:05:23
  Money tag BTC2023 market summary and here we go, the the this is
• 1:05:28
  like a classic chart for market psychology.
• 1:05:32
  It's not the one that you're probably most used to, but you
• 1:05:34
  can see here we have it looks like, yeah, what's the what's
• 1:05:39
  the you know where the heart beeping thing, The ESG?
• 1:05:43
  Oh yeah, the heart monitor, The heart, it looks like a heart
• 1:05:45
  monitor. Here.
• 1:05:46
  We got on the upside, we have severity of mania.
• 1:05:50
  We have euthemia, hypomania and mania.
• 1:05:54
  And on the bottom side we have severity of depression and we
• 1:05:59
  have subthreshold depression and we have major depression.
• 1:06:02
  And you can see this is just a summary of the 2023 fair market.
• 1:06:08
  And we have, you know, it drops down Bros, oh dot dot dot Bros,
• 1:06:12
  what's going on? And then it pumps a little bit
• 1:06:14
  like where's we're back. And then it dumps and it's like
• 1:06:17
  it's over, It's over. I knew Bitcoin with a scam.
• 1:06:20
  And then it pops again. You're like, we're so back.
• 1:06:22
  It was a genius. And it just continues to happen.
• 1:06:25
  It's over. It's a mixed state Bros, what's
• 1:06:28
  going on? It's so over this time.
• 1:06:30
  And as we just continue to stacks, that's moving forward.
• 1:06:34
  I know you guys are feeling the same thing.
• 1:06:35
  And this next one shouts out the Gandalf, this one cracked me up
• 1:06:39
  at BTC Gandalf because again, obviously we're trolling
• 1:06:43
  ourselves. We get so excited when the price
• 1:06:45
  starts to move green that we kind of forget that we still are
• 1:06:49
  under all time high and and we're still just like we're the
• 1:06:52
  best. Anyways, we got Neil, de Grasse,
• 1:06:55
  Tyson and he's going into hyper. What's it, what's it Hyper
• 1:06:59
  space. I forget what it is.
• 1:07:01
  Anyways, we got Gandalf all caps and goes, Oh my God, Bitcoin is
• 1:07:04
  breaking out and you can see the chart is just a bunch of red
• 1:07:07
  candles going down and then we have one little green candle at
• 1:07:11
  the bottom. It's breaking out guys.
• 1:07:13
  We're so back. Yes, yes, we do get crazy when
• 1:07:17
  the price pumps. But hey, one day soon, the price
• 1:07:21
  will continue to skyrocket. This next meme, again, this is
• 1:07:25
  the same. There's a theme through today's
• 1:07:27
  meme review and it's the fact that hey, if you made it through
• 1:07:32
  this bear market, congratulations, pat yourself on
• 1:07:34
  the back. It looks like we are finally,
• 1:07:38
  finally getting at least in the beginning stages of the next
• 1:07:40
  bull run. But shout that to my boy whining
• 1:07:42
  kids and he goes, We pump a couple thousand, Oh my effing
• 1:07:45
  God. Hyperbicolonization is right
• 1:07:47
  around the corner. We dump a couple 1000.
• 1:07:50
  The macro is bearish. Why would anyone buy Bitcoin
• 1:07:52
  during these times? And we have a picture here and
• 1:07:55
  he goes, me at my second rodeo. And they have the Leonardo
• 1:07:58
  DiCaprio face like, uh, you know, And he's, he's sitting
• 1:08:02
  there and it's a little kid. He's just chilling.
• 1:08:04
  And he goes, this isn't my first rodeo, This is all of us, all of
• 1:08:11
  us, you know, relatively newer bitcoiners in our second bear
• 1:08:14
  market. And we're just so you know,
• 1:08:17
  we're dunking all the news, hey, you know, we've been here
• 1:08:19
  before. We're oh, jeez, this isn't my
• 1:08:20
  first rodeo. Me at my second rodeo.
• 1:08:23
  Love it. Wine.
• 1:08:24
  Okay. This next meme is by the BTC
• 1:08:26
  therapist. And he goes, hashtag, Bitcoin is
• 1:08:27
  hope. And we go how it starts.
• 1:08:30
  And you can see we got MasterCard and the World
• 1:08:32
  Economic Forum and New York Times and JP Morgan and CNN and
• 1:08:36
  Visa and the FBI, and it all culminates in them saying
• 1:08:40
  Bitcoin is bad. And then it's just us.
• 1:08:42
  Bitcoin is going, wait, I got it, No, Bitcoin is good.
• 1:08:48
  And then it goes how it ends. And then we have the, you know,
• 1:08:51
  the Bitcoin over here, the Chad Bitcoin are going, yes.
• 1:08:54
  And we have all these countries, you know, El Salvador, America,
• 1:08:57
  Brazil, Venezuela, Mexico, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera,
• 1:09:01
  all of them going soon enough. Bitcoin is good and it's us
• 1:09:06
  agreeing with them. All the countries in the world
• 1:09:09
  right now with hyperinflating currencies are soon enough going
• 1:09:12
  to be looking for El Salvador's lead and get on the Bitcoin
• 1:09:15
  standard and it's it's going to be a beautiful sight to be hold.
• 1:09:18
  And on this last one chested on my boy ropeium he hit me in the
• 1:09:22
  DM's and he was like I'm amazed that you put that meme on
• 1:09:24
  yesterday. Do not cancel me guys.
• 1:09:26
  I I did not see the keyboard. Anyways, let's let's forget
• 1:09:29
  about that ropeium goes. He's got a quote here by GK
• 1:09:33
  Chesterton on Bitcoin it goes. It is not that they cannot see,
• 1:09:37
  the solution is that they cannot see the problem.
• 1:09:40
  And I, you know, rope. Hey bro, I know you're a meme.
• 1:09:44
  I know you're a shit poster, but very profound, very profound.
• 1:09:47
  And you can see here there's two people looking up into an orange
• 1:09:51
  sky and instead of the sun there is the bitcoiner.
• 1:09:55
  How's this one? I didn't see this Ding Dong
• 1:09:58
  iterating on it, see the light Bitcoin.
• 1:10:00
  But it really makes you think. And it's something that that I
• 1:10:04
  kind of felt as well is a lot of people know well.
• 1:10:09
  And this is kind of a counter to what I always say, you know, I
• 1:10:11
  always say a lot of people know what the problem is, they just
• 1:10:14
  don't know there's a solution. But hey, I think it's becoming
• 1:10:17
  very clear as well that many people just cannot see that
• 1:10:20
  there is a problem and they're just lost in the sauce.
• 1:10:23
  And we're here. This is why we're here.
• 1:10:25
  This is why people like Sandy are doing the Lord's work and
• 1:10:29
  getting people on the Bitcoin standard.
• 1:10:31
  Anyways, drop your meme review score in the chat and we will
• 1:10:35
  cover them live as we cover hours over there.
• 1:10:38
  Drop it over there and and we will, we will get it covered
• 1:10:41
  live. OK, my meme review score is, you
• 1:10:44
  guys know I just came back from Austin.
• 1:10:46
  Uh oh just came back from Austin and shouts out to my boy Billy
• 1:10:51
  Mcdoe. Cuz he gave me this Bay Area
• 1:10:54
  bitcoiners hat shouts out to you bro.
• 1:10:56
  Billy Mcdoe really put the team on his back.
• 1:10:59
  Doe OK, Dell, what is your meme review score?
• 1:11:03
  A jar of water? Wait, what?
• 1:11:07
  A jar of water jar. A jar?
• 1:11:11
  Are you fermenting something or what?
• 1:11:13
  No, it's a Mason jar of water. I don't like drinking out of
• 1:11:15
  plastic, so I drink out of glass Mason jars.
• 1:11:17
  Chad. Chad.
• 1:11:18
  All right, Sandy, are you back? It looks like the Matrix has
• 1:11:21
  you. Are you back with us?
• 1:11:23
  No, look at me. It's all right.
• 1:11:27
  It's aesthetic. You fell off?
• 1:11:29
  No. It's because the Internet is
• 1:11:33
  going and coming, because we have a lot of.
• 1:11:36
  Buildings around here, you know we're going to have a new mold
