Transcript
- 0:04Welcome to another episode of Simply Bitcoin where we cover
- 0:08the peaceful, Bitcoin Revolution, the bitcoin news,
- 0:12the culture, the memes, the fails, all of it.
- 0:16We have it all. Today we have a very, very
- 0:18special guest we have Randy Brito, Randy, how you doing,
- 0:24buddy? Fine, thank you for having me.
- 0:26We're super happy to have you. Anyways, guys, this is the Today
- 0:30episode, I hope you have a good time.
- 0:32Anyways Opti it's time for brought to you by.
- 0:36Not only make some of the best Bitcoin nodes like the not a one
- 0:40run, your own version of Bitcoin core.
- 0:41The lightning Network dirt, dojo and Whirlpool all from the
- 0:45comfort of your own home member. Guys, if you don't run your own
- 0:48Bitcoin node, you're using someone else's and for you
- 0:51digital Nomads, doesn't that doesn't matter where you are,
- 0:54you could run a noddle through a virtual private server anywhere
- 0:58around the world visit not old. You at the time of this
- 1:01recording the Bitcoin, price is 23,000 and $55 the SATs per
- 1:06dollar also known as Moscow time 4333 Bitcoin held in corporate
- 1:12treasuries 1 million six hundred and sixty thousand Bitcoin.
- 1:15I don't think that's been updated since Elon dumped all
- 1:18that Bitcoin. I might have to remove it.
- 1:20Block height, 746,000 58, reachable Bitcoin notes, 15,000
- 1:25134 percentage issued 90.9. Sent blocks to The Happening. 90
- 1:313942 having estimate April, 18th, 2024 block, subsidy value
- 1:39144,000, 250 block, subsidy 6.25 Bitcoin.
- 1:46Also, Opti brought this up yesterday, I'm going to bring it
- 1:49up again. We had a difficulty adjustment
- 1:53of five percent yesterday or yeah actually a couple days ago
- 1:57and again, the difficulty adjustment is Thing built into
- 2:01the Bitcoin Network and ensures that the block time stays at
- 2:05around 10 minutes, right? And then the lower the
- 2:09difficulty, adjustment more incentive for minors, right?
- 2:13So it's awesome. I love how Bitcoin just kind of
- 2:15figures it out. Let's check out this video and
- 2:20it's by it's actually it's a legacy mainstream media video
- 2:24and it's with the CEO of Riot. I think there's a ton of signal
- 2:28in here. Let's check.
- 2:29Check it out and then we will Riff on it.
- 2:31It's a three minute video so it's quite long.
- 2:33Let's check it out. Jason welcome.
- 2:36Thank you for having me. What?
- 2:37Okay let me ask you for like the math here with Energy prices and
- 2:42crypto where they are today, how much less are you giving up?
- 2:46Then you might be, if Bitcoin was back at 60k and energy,
- 2:50prices were also where they are today.
- 2:53So it's really a dynamic calculation, there's a bunch of
- 2:56Market factors beyond just the Bitcoin price.
- 2:58There's also the Around Bitcoin mining that impacts what your
- 3:02revenue is a Bitcoin miner on a dollar per megawatt hour basis.
- 3:06So as a minor we look at that and then we can also make a
- 3:09judgment call in the power Market on if it is worth it to
- 3:12mine, or if it's worth it to curtail our energy and sell the
- 3:16power block that we've invested in it, secured back to the
- 3:18market for notably, there are different demand response
- 3:21programs that we support in that we reduce our energy costs,
- 3:24annually and help support the Texas, graded, our communities
- 3:28that we operate in, I know, Noticed that that you have all
- 3:31you have been selling power back to the grid.
- 3:33It says that would equate to a bitcoin price at times north of
- 3:36500 thousand dollars. What do you mean by that?
- 3:39That was not a quote from me. So I'm not sure the math behind
- 3:42that, but I will tell you that the price of power in Orkut will
- 3:47tend to Peak and Spike to pretty high prices.
- 3:51When there is not enough energy in that great and that is really
- 3:54when renewable generation sources, like, wind are not
- 3:57functioning as designed functioning, because No wind
- 4:00blowing. So and we will wind blowing that
- 4:02grid has a lot less capacity than it otherwise was so you
- 4:05guys basically have energy, let's call it credits, or
- 4:09something to that effect that are so valuable right now, it
- 4:12equates to a bitcoin price of according to this Source, half
- 4:16half a million dollars. That's that's it is a good
- 4:20reminder that maybe market pricing can help here.
- 4:23Level out the power distribution on the electricity Grid at least
- 4:27that's the optimistic reading. Absolutely Let me put it this
- 4:30way. Miners a Bitcoin miners, like
- 4:32Riot, make huge financial commitments into energy.
- 4:35Grids in the energy markets, we have commitments to purchase
- 4:38energy for two years. So that's a reliable demand,
- 4:41that generators and grid organizers can look at and rely
- 4:44on because we made that commitment, we own a block of
- 4:47power that we can then make available back to the grid when
- 4:51market conditions, need when market conditions call for, and
- 4:54when you know, Powers constrain and spot, prices are spiking up
- 4:58very high. Yeah, it is Wait, so equivalent
- 5:01Bitcoin price Mind of a very much higher than where it's at
- 5:05now. Do you sell that part that power
- 5:06back at a profit? Yes, with the block of power
- 5:11that we have secured, we can shut down and we will sell that
- 5:15power back at a profit at, you know, at a margin much higher at
- 5:19a price much higher than what we're securing it for provided
- 5:22that price is higher than what we would get from.
- 5:25Otherwise, mining bitcoins. You have any idea what
- 5:28percentage of Of State output in Texas, you all consumed or or my
- 5:34Bitcoin miners as a group consume that mm or is it
- 5:39negligible or significant right now.
- 5:42I would say Bitcoin miners are probably around 1% of the total
- 5:47Peak demand and ercot. There are a lot of projects
- 5:50underway. A lot of people a lot of
- 5:51businesses have publicised plans to expand on Texas to the
- 5:58extent. They all follow through it that
- 5:59you Depends on their ability to raise capital and execute, but I
- 6:02think the more Bitcoin miners that are able to deploy in Texas
- 6:06participate, in these different types of grid response programs,
- 6:09the stronger, the ercot grid is going to be because generators
- 6:13and grid operators can rely on a consistent power source. 24/7
- 6:18that has the flexibility unlike other major loads to shut off
- 6:22when demand for power is high. That was so much signal right
- 6:28there. Wow.
- 6:29I really Really enjoyed that whole clip.
- 6:31I thought it was going to be a little bit too long, but I was
- 6:34literally like trying to soak up that that information the entire
- 6:38time. And again that's the CEO of,
- 6:41right? And that's one of the largest
- 6:43Bitcoin. Mining companies is a public
- 6:45company and they have huge facilities and Texas.
- 6:48Maybe you guys have seen some of those videos and he's exactly
- 6:52right, right? That Bitcoin.
- 6:53Miners are the the buyers of Last Resort, right?
- 6:57And an energy grid needs stability?
- 7:00And Bitcoin miners could do something that not many other
- 7:04Industries could do Bitcoin. Miners could be either turned
- 7:07off or on, depending on depending on the need for that
- 7:13power. And again, when the need for
- 7:15that power is is high, right? They get turned off.
- 7:18Now, what I didn't know, right, is that they stay actually sell
- 7:22that power back and I know a lot of know, what a lot of you guys
- 7:25are thinking, right? It's like, oh, wow.
- 7:27So they're selling that that power back.
- 7:29To the public. It's like no guys, you don't
- 7:31understand. That power was always was
- 7:34already going to waste and Riot, stepped in and said, listen,
- 7:38that wasted power. We're going to give it value
- 7:41now. We're going to buy it that power
- 7:43wouldn't even been available if it wasn't for something like
- 7:46Riot, right? Which is why we make the case as
- 7:49bitcoiners that what Bitcoin miner does is actually provide
- 7:53grid stability, right? And it's also actually, in my
- 7:57opinion, going to incentivize green energy.
- 7:59Without government subsidy. So anyways, wow that was dude,
- 8:04that was really impressive. Anyways Opti, what do you think
- 8:08a lot of signal there? I completely missed that video.
- 8:10I'm glad that you played it and it just kind of brought like a
- 8:13little meme in my head of Bitcoin miners are so Nimble,
- 8:16they're just so, like on the ball with their electricity that
- 8:21no other industry can even come close to, and then just the
- 8:26idea, like, Bitcoin mining is an asset to the power grid.
- 8:29Guys we are helping Bitcoin miners help the grid guys and
- 8:35furthermore I didn't know that mining companies like Riot and
- 8:40other large companies had such a long contract of by excess
- 8:44energy. It's just amazing.
- 8:47Guys, we say it all the time incentives, Trump coercion and
- 8:51people like money energy. Companies like money, and
- 8:54Bitcoin is the best money guys. Profits when when you are
- 9:00Looking for them in Bitcoin. Mining provides this it's just
- 9:03amazing guys. It really blows my mind.
- 9:05It's crazy. I can be in Bitcoin this long
- 9:07and just still continue to fall down the rabbit hole and be more
- 9:11bullish. Who could have thought?
- 9:13Yeah, absolutely. Randy.
- 9:14What are your thoughts, brother? Well, I think they should not
- 9:18shut down the miners because every minute they are not
- 9:21mining, they are not collecting bigger, right?
- 9:24They are not making any big grin and I know Venezuelan
- 9:28government, Iranian government, the Russians, they are not
- 9:30shutting down the the remaining devices because a town next to
- 9:35them don't have any electricity because of them so I don't know.
- 9:39We are not attacking the Bitcoins in the u.s. in Texas,
- 9:45which is, I don't know. One of the most freest places in
- 9:48the world. So it's like, okay, it's great.
- 9:52They are adding that demand to the electricity that is being
- 9:57wasted in any other way, if not used by them, but I think it's
- 10:03more like the history to Signal a little bit.
- 10:06Like, I know people need their air conditioning, so I'm going
- 10:09to switch off my mind and devices and so, I don't know.
- 10:13I continue my demands. So it's even if you do just
- 10:16stack it because you cannot sell it because your will make any
- 10:19profit or you won't be able to cover cost.
- 10:21You already bought it. They electricity and low-priced
- 10:25mind those Bitcoin. Get that on, wait, one year,
- 10:28you're probably 400 percent up. Like we currently are right.
- 10:32Randy is a Savage. Toxic razza.
- 10:36Randy's a Savage in a good way, so Randy though.
- 10:39But so what he said though during the interview right?
- 10:42Was that he was selling back the energy back to the grid.
- 10:46Read as if the price of Bitcoin was worth five hundred thousand
- 10:49dollars. So I think with that sale of
- 10:52electricity, he could actually even buy more Bitcoin than he
- 10:55could get mining it. What would you say to that or do
- 10:58you, are you still from the socket?
- 11:00Okay, he kept that far for himself.
- 11:03He didn't share anything about Bonnie.
- 11:05I thought he was been selling the electricity in a prophet to
- 11:10cover the costs because actually my in the beaker and selling
- 11:13them was not enough to cover the cost but he if he is He's
- 11:16actually making any profit out of selling the electricity and
- 11:19buying that come with it or buying Bitcoins.
- 11:22It is also a great way to start because if you don't, you are
- 11:26not able to like, invest in big mining which is the perfect way
- 11:32to do it. Absolute man, but you could opt
- 11:35a pass it on to you before we move on to the news, you can see
- 11:38how much this is going to get. This is what if you guys want to
- 11:41know where the world economic forum and all those places are
- 11:44attacking Bitcoin. Telling you, when they watch
- 11:47that video, I bet you there are melting.
- 11:49They were like, They're using the power, you know.
- 11:54So wow that that was that video in itself was toxic and opting.
- 11:59Did you notice how the anchors were like, trying to find the
- 12:02kink in the air in his armor with like some crazy questions?
- 12:07They always try to paint you in the corner of being the villain,
- 12:12but we know Bitcoin mining and Bitcoin will proliferate
- 12:15humanity and energy. This is uncontested.
- 12:19Yes, absolutely. It's gonna take Humanity to the
- 12:22next stage, right? Using energy is a good thing,
- 12:27don't let anybody excuse me. Tell tell you otherwise and yeah
- 12:32I hope Bitcoin mining uses even more energy than it does.
- 12:37A-anyways Opti is time for the Daily News brought to you by
- 12:42crypto cloaks.com they make some of the best 3D printed Bitcoin

- 13:14Justice, my friends a little bit of Justice.
- 13:17Check out this Bloomberg article from July 21st Korea,
- 13:22prosecutors raid, crypto exchanges homes in Terra probe.
- 13:28That's right, if you were a victim of the terror Luna
- 13:34debacle, first lesson that you should learn this.
- 13:37Is why you should stick to bitcoin only and this is why you
- 13:40should stick to self custody. In fact in the last four months,
- 13:46if you've had your Bitcoin and self custody, and if you didn't
- 13:50buy shit coins, the only thing that has happened to you is that
- 13:53now you have Bitcoin significantly cheaper, so that
- 13:57you could stack more, if you dabbled in shit coins, like
- 14:01Luna, or if you were chasing that yields which we so hard
- 14:05fought against and We'll give a shit for it.
- 14:09Let this be a lesson to you and what we call in the show, the
- 14:11price of tuition. Anyways, we I've had to paint it
- 14:14opt. He's had to pay, I'm sure
- 14:16Randy's had to pay it anyways. South Korea prosecutors are
- 14:19stepping up their investigation into terraform Labs, who stable
- 14:24coin, Tara USD collapsed in May setting off a route and crypto
- 14:28currency markets. A team of investigators from
- 14:30Seoul southern district, prosecutor's office began
- 14:33seizing transaction, records and other material from And local
- 14:37exchanges at 5:30 p.m. local time on Wednesday.
- 14:42Prosecutors also conducted raids on eight other places including
- 14:46the homes and offices of people who are under investigation.
- 14:50The offer office declined to provide more information on
- 14:53those raids. Citing investing, citing
- 14:56investigation, security terror Clash from its dollar Peg.
- 15:00And early May, when the complex algorithm based system involving
- 15:04the sister Luna token that was meant to safe.
- 15:07Guard. Their Peg failed to work as
- 15:08planned. The implosion rendered.
- 15:10Luna almost worthless. Some Luna investors filed.
- 15:15A complaint with South Korean prosecutors and may alleging
- 15:19terraform Labs founder, do Quan, and his company has had
- 15:23committed fraud and engage in illicit fundraising spokesman
- 15:28for up b. B hum and go packs confirm that
- 15:31raids took place Wednesday evening at their offices and
- 15:35that prosecutor sees Action records chai and coin.
- 15:38One didn't immediately respond to requests for comment.
- 15:42In June authorities. Band's current and former
- 15:45employees of Terror formlabs from leaving the country.
- 15:48KBS, TV reported that prosecutors had summoned a
- 15:52former official at a unit of terraform Labs.
- 15:55While Ian hop said, prosecutors were probing whether Quan evaded
- 15:59taxes by moving profits, from crypto currency transactions to
- 16:03Offshore accounts. So, so, how long until this
- 16:10happened to Alex machine ski, right?
- 16:12A lot of people are upset, a lot of people are pissed off that.
- 16:16They got completely rug pulled, right?
- 16:19This is what happens. During the bear markets,
- 16:22everyone is happy during the bull market, they all love
- 16:25Daquan, but when his house of cards collapses, when his shit
- 16:30coin, collapses, when the truth about algorithmic, stable coins
- 16:35gets exposed. Most people are out for blood
- 16:39and man I would hate to be any of those shit coiners.
- 16:44And those exchanges that people are like that has nothing to do
- 16:47with Luna. It does have to do with Luna
- 16:49because those exchanges decided to post a shit coin, very
- 16:56similar to what happened with coinbase.
- 16:57We're going to cover that on Sundays episode.
- 17:00I did a little bit of research about how coinbase came out and
- 17:03said, hey, we don't post Securities, we Don't we don't we
- 17:07don't list Securities. Why are they saying that?
- 17:11They're not saying that to cover that employee that got caught
- 17:14insider trading buying those shit coins before they were
- 17:17listed? They're saying that to save
- 17:19their own butts because If it's inferred that coinbase is
- 17:25listing Securities which are they in trouble.
- 17:30So this doesn't affect you. If you listen to what simply
- 17:34Bitcoin advocates for stay humble, stack Bitcoin, only take
- 17:39it into self custody, use it as a savings technology and enjoy
- 17:44the Bitcoin roller coaster that goes only up and to the right.
- 17:48Anyways. Opti, what are your thoughts
- 17:50brother? Well, My first initial thought
- 17:54is just shit Corners. Make us all look bad guys look
- 17:58at the we're all over the news like we're all in the same boat
- 18:02and now we're all criminals. Apparently in the in the
- 18:05mainstream or Legacy Media is eyes and they just make us all
- 18:09look bad. You know there's a fundamental
- 18:11difference between bitcoiners and shit corners but I'm not
- 18:14going to go full into it. I just wanted to make a point.
- 18:16I've been saying, I think I said it all week that it feels like
- 18:20we have definitely crossed the Rubicon.
- 18:22Of Bitcoin quote-unquote mainstream adoption.
- 18:26We are in the eye and everything is going to be scrutinized and
- 18:30it just reminds me from being a person that got wrecked in 2017
- 18:36as a noob. And now being on this side and
- 18:39seeing people get rekt it's going to be a lot harder for
- 18:43scammers out there to scam retail noobs in this market
- 18:47because there is real consequences.
- 18:50Now guys if you're a criminal Law will come after you and you
- 18:55can't just run around and create more scams.
- 18:58And look, I am not one that you know Advocates or is a fan of
- 19:03authority. I've always been
- 19:04anti-authoritarian but I believe in honest, hard work and if
- 19:10you're a criminal hey go fuck yourself.
- 19:12You make us all look bad. Quit scamming people, you
- 19:15shouldn't scam and now there's going to be actual consequences
- 19:18for scammers. So to all you scammers out
- 19:21there, you better watch What you're doing and it's not me
- 19:23saying this guy's, it's the powers that be so, hey do what
- 19:28you want to do. I know what I'm going to do, I'm
- 19:30going Stacks at stay humble, provide the value and do my own
- 19:34thing. Nico or Randy, what's up?
- 19:40Well it's Bitcoin user not affected you say there, it's if
- 19:45you stack your beacons, you your noncustodial wallet.
- 19:50Most of the things won't like actually do anything to you or
- 19:53your commitment to the bit coin movement, right?
- 19:57So yeah, stay humble, stagger Bitcoins, continue.
- 20:03Buying when it's cheap, I guess is Wherever thing you can put
- 20:09into bigger and not have it. You can see it losing value at
- 20:12all the other stuff. Like I know your house your car
- 20:16even if you have a can of gasoline now it's great to have
- 20:20it but imagine that when you run out of that kind of gas you will
- 20:24need to refill it and it's going to cost you more and if you're
- 20:27going to refill it with your because you are doing it wrong,
- 20:32Absolutely it Randy hit the nail on the head.
- 20:35Bitcoin is a deflationary currency life, gets cheaper in
- 20:39Bitcoin, right. So rather than Fiat with Fiat,
- 20:42incentivizes you to suspend because it's losing value
- 20:47Bitcoin. Incentivizes you to save
- 20:49because, you know, you're purchasing power increases over
- 20:53time, which is why it is the best savings technology man has
- 20:57ever seen. Mankind, has better, seen better
- 21:01set. Anyways, moving on to the next
- 21:03part of the show. I always say that it West
- 21:11because we have Financial privilege, I've always had
- 21:16trouble convincing people because they see Bitcoin as a
- 21:21speculative investment. But if you live in a country
- 21:27like Venezuela, like turkey, like Argentina that I've had
- 21:32inflation for a very long time. Bitcoin is not a speculative
- 21:37investment, Bitcoin is a necessity.
- 21:41Bitcoin is a way for people to get on a Lifeboat in a country,
- 21:46whose currency is failing. And I believe that eventually,
- 21:49this is going to come to the West.
- 21:53So I have Randy on today to speak a little bit about Bitcoin
- 21:58Venezuela and to speak a little bit about his experiences using
- 22:03Bitcoin. In Venezuela and if he's used it
- 22:07as it's designed right there's a little bit about Bitcoin
- 22:11Venezuela, a Bitcoin Minnesota, they since 2012 and it's it's
- 22:17they held it's a humanitarian humanitarian organization.
- 22:21So we're going to talk a little bit about that but Randy so How
- 22:28is it man? How is it that?
- 22:29So in my particular situation most of my family is still in
- 22:33Venezuela and one of the methods that I use to send money is I
- 22:38send it to them in Bitcoin it's super easy.
- 22:41Other options are absolutely terrible and the fees and all
- 22:44this stuff. Randy are you using?
- 22:47Because I know that stable coins are also very popular over
- 22:50there. But look at what happened to
- 22:51Luna stable coins, provide false Financial sovereignty.
- 22:57What? Been your experience with using
- 22:59Bitcoin and Venezuela are people using Bitcoin in Venezuela is
- 23:03Bitcoin popular over there. What's going on?
- 23:07Well this is not stable car. If it's stable bleep back to the
- 23:12daughter. Is it stable going down?
- 23:14It's like it's it's a steadily in a straight way route, right
- 23:20to the to help, right that's what stable coins are.
- 23:24So if people eventually use those they even they don't even
- 23:28use it. Like, you know, I don't know
- 23:30this try to take back one on one to one US DT in Bitcoin.
- 23:37Master Gardener on the coin protocol.
- 23:39Now they basically used wrong or Finance exchange, centralized
- 23:45service - pay or something like that.
- 23:47So it's there they could be using any.
- 23:50Other thing is it will be better if they were allowed to.
- 23:54That's one thing is that there are people in Venezuela are
- 23:58prohibited from using most of the services out there because
- 24:02most of the service have to comply with Multicultural
- 24:05money's money. NG country capital and the US
- 24:10sanctions and other countries sanctions in Venezuela.
- 24:12So they just don't bother to do it and they block the entire
- 24:17country because it's easier. Not because most people are ban
- 24:22like in the case of Iran or North Korea but because it's
- 24:25cheaper to ban everyone and not single, allow each one of them
- 24:30and verify them. So That's the example that
- 24:35people should be looking at. Like, they try with with Wells,
- 24:39Fargo. They try with Bank of America.
- 24:41They try to say the truth table and they end up banned from all
- 24:45of them and losing their money. And if they go to the stable
- 24:48guns, they're stable currency still losing purchasing power to
- 24:53and it's still stable guy. So we disable coins have
- 24:57compliance built into them. They can be also block and
- 25:01drivers and fans can be frozen. So it's actually known
- 25:05centralized censorship system. That's what Bitcoin is.
- 25:09Some people can accept. That is the reality.
- 25:14They can stop like, trying to gamble with those over things
- 25:18beautifully Torres. Yeah, those are Bryant's,
- 25:21obviously have a lot of marketing and they are all in
- 25:23the country and they say they have thousands of thousands of
- 25:27people and they have like ambassadors, they don't pay them
- 25:31Bachelor but they give them anything source of payment.
- 25:33It as a thank-you, this guy's a spend their money moving around
- 25:38the country, and she'll in their coins.
- 25:41And then they get nothing. And this companies and projects,
- 25:46and SF trying to save the humans of the world startups.
- 25:53Make fun of them online in their injuries.
- 25:57So, when I see that, I say we are a bit good Venezuela, we
- 26:02accept anything that you can throw I'll see if we can use the
- 26:05app to exchange to be going and continue helping people in the
- 26:08country feeding people and giving them any sense, okay?
- 26:12We are going to accept anything that you want to donate, but
- 26:15we're going to convert that to be clear.
- 26:16And that's the way we are going to use it and we have been using
- 26:19it for years now for seven years for monetary and a that we do in
- 26:25the country. And like I said, we take
- 26:28donations but we are not registered.
- 26:33We don't see like registering with government that is
- 26:39impoverishing, the country and the people there, and also
- 26:43starving them to death, and then we are going to sign up with
- 26:46them, so we can get money to help the people.
- 26:48There are keeping, it doesn't make any sense to us.
- 26:51We are a nonprofit organization with being for 10 years now,
- 26:55running only on bit car, that's amazing, and you're absolutely
- 26:59right in terms of because that's what happens with, you know,
- 27:03with Socialist countries, that's what happens with Cuba, right?
- 27:07Is that if you send money to Cuba and you do it, the right
- 27:10way with the government does is it takes the money takes the
- 27:14dollars, they keep it themselves and then they hand the Cuban,
- 27:17citizen their currency, right? To the government and riches
- 27:20themselves, they hand the the citizens, some shit coin, and
- 27:24yeah, I absolutely agree if it's the same thing.
- 27:26What is the, what is the my local government going to do the
- 27:28same shit. We're just going to take it
- 27:30themselves. So what about Bitcoin?
- 27:33Option and Bitcoin use and Venezuela.
- 27:36If you go to a store and you want to pay people, I'm assuming
- 27:39that the country is dollarized by now, right?
- 27:43Yeah. Well he's like not officially
- 27:46the rise but everything is Bay indoors.
- 27:49Now it's like gosh say say said like individuals take payments
- 27:55and anything that looks like a daughter even if it's a stable
- 27:58connection chicoine like I don't know he's preserving something
- 28:02to dollars or something like that and algorithmic or back or
- 28:07whatever they want to call it, but there is like Bitcoin
- 28:12everywhere. Because it's part of the
- 28:15marketing to is like Bitcoin miners are now like over
- 28:20mandated and then government-mandated, everyone
- 28:25who has power like power actual power, not a power, legitimate,
- 28:29actual power like Mayors and governors.
- 28:33They run their own Bitcoin facility with mining because
- 28:36facilities. So they also own the malls.
- 28:39They also own the supermarket. So they say, We have to talk
- 28:44about this and you can go and pay for your T-shirt or you can
- 28:47pay for a hamburger almost like everyone in the country and in
- 28:52Bitcoin. Yeah, you can use Bitcoin.
- 28:55That's that's one of the things they accept their.
- 28:58I think they, I think they even have like one specific cashier
- 29:02for that because that's the only person who.
- 29:04Wow, wow, that's, that's insane. Yeah, it looks like the video
- 29:13But all over the country, right? And is this is is this only this
- 29:18only look up? Is it only Caracas or is it like
- 29:20the by? Yeah it's everywhere.
- 29:26Which are bothering with Colombia.
- 29:28They usually only use use the word and Euros currency and they
- 29:34also use Bitcoin. But one of the biggest it could
- 29:38Minds, it's in the insolia so it's expected, right?
- 29:44They call it the beacon City or the crypto see, I don't know if
- 29:48they change the name already. It's Monica, which is in center
- 29:51of the country Caracas. Obviously everyone takes Bitcoin
- 29:56but that's the thing is that you are spending your Bitcoin
- 30:00because you are making that big green as your income.
- 30:03So that's cool that you are able to do it would be great if you
- 30:07can do it like for your phone using Tor and maybe in, you know
- 30:12obviously you know Self-serving wait, right?
- 30:19It's, I think most people are not there yet.
- 30:22They just have it somewhere in some centralized wallet or
- 30:27closed Source wallet. Like most of the ayahs maps for
- 30:30example, but well Beacon is used and you can use it and you can
- 30:36send money there. So you can what a necessity for
- 30:38system way? What is the name that that's so
- 30:41fascinating? I didn't know that.
- 30:42So there you, they nicknamed City in Venezuela, the Bitcoin
- 30:47City and that's because there's a huge Bitcoin mine there.
- 30:50What is the name of the city? Well Matt guy is kind of cocky.
- 30:56Yeah it's in a real estate and who owns that one of the biggest
- 31:00one who owns the armor and what one of the governor's?
- 31:05Yeah. So so the Maduro government like
- 31:09fucking those people there and too far.
- 31:12Yeah okay yeah block into the system leads from there.
- 31:15There are people who say that they mined with maybe B-52 on.
- 31:23Hundred megawatts something like that.
- 31:26Sand it down, doesn't happen to TriCity like eight hours a day
- 31:3124/7. Right.
- 31:33That's crazy. That's why, that's why you knew
- 31:35about Texas. Oh, yeah.
- 31:38It's and, and they're doing the same in Russia.
- 31:41And also, I rang, you know, they dwell government mandated and so
- 31:46the governments of Iran. The governments of Russia are
- 31:49mining Bitcoin like crazy. That's the incentives.
- 31:52And this is Is what you know the the book The sovereign
- 31:55individual was talking about about geographical Arbitrage.
- 31:58Right, think about it this way, right?
- 32:00So if the United States is like hey and we're going to ban pick
- 32:03what is Russia going to do. Okay Bitcoin miners.
- 32:05Come here you know Iran's gonna say Venezuela's going to say and
- 32:08we have a saying here in the United States, right?
- 32:11Is whenever a minor becomes unprofitable, send it to sell it
- 32:17to Venezuela. That's that's the same over
- 32:19here. That's nine is unprofitable.
- 32:21Send it to Venezuela. Yeah, there are His bike is
- 32:24there for them. Absolutely 100% what we want
- 32:27strikes as bothersome of day and night to need it from people in
- 32:29the US. And it's not profitable holding
- 32:34in the US. But this is still profitable and
- 32:36he's always being and sure. Yeah.
- 32:39The thing is that the government Crackdown individuals my name?
- 32:42Hmm. That's literally why I left?
- 32:44I left because of that. Yeah, oh yeah, you're from
- 32:48there. I'm not.
- 32:50I mean, so like I grew up in Miami but my family is from
- 32:52Venezuela. And that's where I started.
- 32:54My old mining journey is there but I remember it was 2017.
- 32:59You mean, you mean Doris? Allah, you are from Doris?
- 33:02What I do. That's so Le know.
- 33:04So I don't know. I mean, I'm not from Darrell but
- 33:07no, I'm from North know, I've been in Miami a very long time
- 33:10do that. What should we call do dance?
- 33:12Whele is that's Laura, Santiago, like people that are just coming
- 33:17from Venezuela. Go to the road, I'll know, I've
- 33:18been in Miami and I've been in Miami and I was in, I was in
- 33:22Miami. Before it became popular for
- 33:25Venezuelans, ha ha ha. You have to type of Venezuela in
- 33:29every city, you know? The one that comes and they
- 33:31deliver the food to you, and the ones that come, and you see them
- 33:36with a car, that is even better than yours.
- 33:37Anything, 10 years, she wanted to paint, right?
- 33:41You got anyways, I'm doing that's true.
- 33:43That's true after you with you thoughts.
- 33:47My friend, you need to ask if he's father, is mine events.
- 33:50What do you know? Unger asked if his father is a
- 33:55military leader or something or some with power you just ask.
- 33:59Oh that's your father - awesome. That's funny.
- 34:02That's funny. Let's go.
- 34:04First first off super interesting, I wasn't really
- 34:07aware of all that stuff Randy. So I really appreciate and
- 34:10second I just want to applaud you for the beach.
- 34:13See ven nonprofit. That's just really really cool
- 34:16stuff. And and super super inspiring
- 34:19and like I say all the time mining is not my forte but I I
- 34:23am a master of memes and the best meme here that popped in my
- 34:27mind is, you can't ban Bitcoin, you can only ban yourself from
- 34:31Bitcoin. So, shout out to all those
- 34:34people Banning themselves from Bitcoin.
- 34:36Someone else will mine Bitcoin. Someone else will take the
- 34:38Bitcoin. That is the game as the game but
- 34:42there's a lot of signal there. I really enjoyed that
- 34:44conversation. Randy.
- 34:45Many ways Opti it's time for the daily fail brought to you by
- 34:50Swan. Bitcoin.
- 34:52Swan is the Best way to build your Bitcoin stack with
- 34:55automated Bitcoin savings plan and instant purchases serving
- 34:59clients of any size from ten dollars to ten million dollars.
- 35:04What we love Swan and simply Bitcoin because it matches our
- 35:08values, right? They incentivize you to take
- 35:10self custody and they also incentivize you to DC a dollar
- 35:16cost average spread out your risk.
- 35:18While you're opting out of the old system of the Fiat Matrix
- 35:23Check out Swan Bitcoin.com. All right.
- 35:26What's up guys? I'm here to do the fail.
- 35:29As you can see, we're gonna cover, vitalik, any Theory, I'm
- 35:34on today's fail. He's been in the news all day.
- 35:38Yesterday, spreading is Fudd. So let me just get into it, we
- 35:42got this headline from fortune.com and it goes, the
- 35:46talaq, Butte Aaron says, etherium will be 55 percent
- 35:50complete post-merge amazing. How amazing that they are
- 35:55Schilling eith and it's not even 55 percent complete.
- 36:00Hmm, I wonder. Yeah, I wonder anyway, let's get
- 36:04into this article a little bit because there's so much here.
- 36:07So etherium co-founder shared some thoughts on Thursday.
- 36:12Speaking at the theorem Community Conference vitalik,
- 36:16started his conversation by comparing the network to its
- 36:20longtime rival Bitcoin stating that the Between Bitcoin and
- 36:24ethereum is that bitcoiners consider Bitcoin to be 80%
- 36:28complete but he therians consider etherium to be 40%
- 36:33complete. Interesting logic.
- 36:35You're going down there. But Alec, interesting logic.
- 36:39Anyways, we go down, he says, but he added that that 40%
- 36:43figure is poised to jump after etherium.
- 36:45Complete a long plan technology, upgrade known as the merge guys.
- 36:52Remember, Brr, Phil's epic takedown of the eith roadmap and
- 36:57the merge Splurge, Verge, whatever the urge was.
- 37:01But once they get to the merge, ethereum will be about 50%
- 37:05complete, we're getting really close.
- 37:07It's really amazing. The talaq says, and last week,
- 37:12the eith Deb's dropped a tentative timeline for the merge
- 37:16aiming for September. And as beat Aaron says, it's a
- 37:20long and complicated transition. Proof of steak, but it will make
- 37:25it more robust us and I'll make it even better.
- 37:29Anyways, following the merge eat their rooms road map.
- 37:32Includes a few more major phases, including a four-part
- 37:36upgrade that developers are calling the surge Verge Purge
- 37:40and Splurge. All of which aim to make
- 37:43aetherium, much more secure and decentralize and here's the
- 37:47kicker, this went around as a headline for a while yesterday
- 37:51and it goes at the end. Of this roadmap etherium will be
- 37:55much more scalable system and by the end, you theorem will be
- 37:59able to process a hundred thousand transactions per
- 38:03second. And vitalik looks forward to in
- 38:07etherium can settle down. At some point, the rate of
- 38:11change will slow down. There are things that can happen
- 38:15really, nigga? This is the funniest.
- 38:18This is I love how they ended this.
- 38:20There are things that could happen there are unknown
- 38:23unknowns but those unknowns should decrease over time.
- 38:28Okay, well of course I just had to bring up the eith roadmap.com
- 38:32page because Phil just so thoroughly destroyed.
- 38:35This definitely go watch. The eith roadmap is a joke
- 38:39because it gets destroyed. Anyways let's go back in.
- 38:44Memory, Lane a little bit. And remember that the etherium
- 38:49merge has already been postponed.
- 38:51It was supposed to be ready by June, but they did a headline
- 38:56and said they have no firm date yet, so the much anticipated
- 39:00murder event on the ethereum. Let's look back to the date is
- 39:03April 13. We're in July 22nd 2022, and it
- 39:09appears That they moved it back to September.
- 39:13So of course, it's super, super complicated to do the merge but
- 39:19I really, really love this comment that they put in this
- 39:23article. And as you see Tim bike, oh,
- 39:25he's a neat Deb and he goes, it won't be June but likely in a
- 39:29few months after no firm date yet.
- 39:32But we're definitely in the final chapter of pufa work on
- 39:35ethereum. And how is this beautiful tweet
- 39:38here? It wasn't early 2021 either.
- 39:41And we've been in the Final Chapter for about four years
- 39:44now. What's a few more months years
- 39:47decades between friends? Oh man, so good.
- 39:53And then we got, I just wanted to highlight.
- 39:55We got a coinbase head of engineering mentioning that it
- 39:59took technical complexity behind the merge itself that justifies
- 40:04this delay in any delivery. So, let's just keep going down,
- 40:09memory lane and we saw in July 15.
- 40:15That the marketing of the merge pump, the price enough for the
- 40:20whales to get in and start accumulating eith.
- 40:23I had of the Network's highly-anticipated merge
- 40:26upgrade. Remember the meme guys, buy the
- 40:29rumor, sell the news. Hmm, it seems like this is what
- 40:35is going on. So I did a little dive.
- 40:37Of course I need to check out what they're actually saying on
- 40:41the eith form about the merge. And yes, they are saying that
- 40:45the Eric is going to ship Q3 Q4 as they're saying roughly
- 40:50September, and this is the most significant upgrade in the
- 40:53history of ethereum, extensive testing and Bug bounties are
- 40:57undertaken to ensure a safe transition to proof of stake.
- 41:02But I really love this guy's even in their own, in their own
- 41:06press releases talking about the merge.
- 41:09They continue to talk about the fact that they're postponing
- 41:11this throughout ethereals history, developers have been
- 41:14working hard at preparing, For an eventual transition away from
- 41:17proof of work to proof of stake on December 1st 2020.
- 41:20The beacon chain was created. If you remember from E3, sorry,
- 41:26from Phil's. Eat roadmap is a joke.
- 41:29You will remember that the merge is supposed to merge with this
- 41:34Beacon change. So they've been doing it for a
- 41:37few years now and they still can't figure it out.
- 41:39So what is the goal of the merge?
- 41:42Well, once eith merges. It will become a deflationary
- 41:48currency likely to have an issuance range between negative
- 41:52point five percent to - 4.5%, it's ultrasound money after all,
- 41:57guys. All these changes don't mean
- 41:59anything. But I really, really I have to
- 42:03put a put our friends dunking on here guys cuz they can make our
- 42:06points way better in one tweet. So again, this headline went
- 42:10around, you Terian by the end of the road map Heath will process
- 42:13a hundred thousand transactions per Second.
- 42:16And then we got a tweet Here by Brian Schmidt and he goes does
- 42:19the end of the road map finally met Keith decentralised or does
- 42:23it remain the centralized caca coin scam?
- 42:27That it's always been and D Whitman's.
- 42:29Really been killing it on Twitter lately and he goes by
- 42:33the end of the road map, the world will have moved to a
- 42:35Bitcoin standard as they slowly learned that digital scarcity
- 42:39can only be achieved once and that proof of stake is no
- 42:42different than PayPal stock and you know That I love memes.
- 42:47Ha, ha ha ha. This is the end of the theory of
- 42:51roadmap. It's a dumpster fire.
- 42:54They are never going to get to the end of the transition to
- 42:58proof of stake. As Phil said, in the East
- 43:02roadmap is a joke. This is all marketing, guys.
- 43:04Shit coins are back by marketing.
- 43:06They have to kick the can down the road when you have no viable
- 43:10product, remember what they said.
- 43:13After the merge they haven't even merged.
- 43:16Ethier will be 55 percent, complete guys.
- 43:19They are pushing a shitty product, excuse my French Nico
- 43:22and they know it. Anyways, I thought this would be
- 43:25just a good little pin on it. This is a visual of the
- 43:28lightning Network. We already know that the
- 43:31lightning Network can do as many transactions as possible.
- 43:35I don't know, I don't want to put the hard numbers out, but
- 43:36I'm pretty sure he can do a hundred thousand transactions
- 43:39today. No more than that, more,
- 43:41exactly. Hence my point That we are
- 43:44already doing what the eith road map says we'll be doing in the
- 43:49future. It's already happening right
- 43:51now. It's on Lightning Network guys
- 43:54do not get LED down the the shit coin path and give these people
- 43:59your Bitcoin because Bitcoin is the Innovation here.
- 44:03Everything that's being built on.
- 44:04Bitcoin is where the future will move towards.
- 44:09Guys don't fall for the shit coin marketing, its atrocious
- 44:12and I honestly cannot believe how they are this transparent,
- 44:17and people don't see between the lines.
- 44:20Anyways, Nika, I see you shaking your head dude, amazing and
- 44:25great job doing that. And dude like let's Riff on this
- 44:29look the reality is that etherium has been trying to
- 44:32migrate to to proof of stake for the longest time.
- 44:37The deflationary thing the bit that he said, okay, so it's only
- 44:41deflationary and to the It's the necessary political pressure
- 44:44mounts up and then it will be inflationary again and then it
- 44:48will be something else again and then it will be something else
- 44:50again and there would be something else.
- 44:52Again as long as it could be manipulated by human beings
- 44:56which proof of stake is going to enable then.
- 44:59It's only deflationary until it's not versus Bitcoin, right?
- 45:04We know the having dates, we know the estimated dates.
- 45:09We know the it goes from 6.25, to half of that, to half of that
- 45:14to half of that roughly every four years for the next 100,
- 45:18something years, and that doesn't change.
- 45:21And that is a feature, not a bug as long as the monetary policy
- 45:25could be manipulated and changed by human beings.
- 45:29It will happen. If you want to separate money
- 45:32from State, it needs to be fully decentralized and the monetary
- 45:37policy cannot. Change..
- 45:42Etherium is designed in a way where it is so
- 45:45resource-intensive, right? The nodes are so
- 45:48resource-intensive that only a handful of people could run them
- 45:52which is why the majority of aetherium nodes run on servers.
- 45:57They don't run by individuals running a note.
- 46:01So, yeah, man. Like this is just noise.
- 46:04It's a marketing gimmick because it's like, oh my God, let me buy
- 46:07some etherium. It's about to be the only
- 46:09deflationary currency. It's about to move to proof of
- 46:13stake that doesn't use any power.
- 46:15Wow, Bitcoin is old. Fuck Bitcoin, let me get myself
- 46:19some etherium, it's all marketing.
- 46:22It's all word salad. It, they still say, oh, it's
- 46:26going to be done 55% of the way. It's been like three or four
- 46:30years since this guy. Been saying, we're going to
- 46:32migrate to perfect steak and it still hasn't migrated to proof
- 46:35of stake. Goddamn look.
- 46:38Proof-of-work was The Innovation.
- 46:41It was the difference. Proof of stake is like trying
- 46:46to, it's like finding a problem to give a solution too.
- 46:50Make no mistake. The etherium guys are going to
- 46:52do whatever in their power to attack Bitcoin.
- 46:58Because that is how they prop their chicoine.
- 46:59If it means killing the only decentralized cryptocurrency
- 47:04crypto currency in existence which is Bitcoin.
- 47:06They don't care. As long as they get their
- 47:08Lambos, they don't care about separating money from State,
- 47:11dude. They teamed up with the world
- 47:13economic Forum. What the the girl that's on the
- 47:16theory of foundation. She sits on the world economic
- 47:19Forum. Like come on now, they'll Ally
- 47:22with the state. Now I would government they came
- 47:24up with the paper literally and we This on the fail, couple
- 47:28months ago that literally said, why don't you build your Central
- 47:32Bank? Digital currency on aetherium,
- 47:34what the fuck? Because they don't care, they
- 47:37don't care, they just want to get rich and they don't care if
- 47:41it means killing Bitcoin in the process us bitcoiners are about
- 47:44separating money from State and the process enter ending Central
- 47:48Banking ending the tyranny of Central Banking.
- 47:51And Eve, guys are just like, that's cool as long as you don't
- 47:55shut us down because you can't shut us down because there's
- 47:57Centralized anyways, Randy. What are your thoughts?
- 48:00And then we'll move on to the software release.
- 48:03Well, see a Syrian the things that you showed a Tiny Network
- 48:08and you cannot get all the lightning.
- 48:10There were no Runners people who runs those lying.
- 48:15There were no time make transaction with each other, in
- 48:18one call and tell all that stopped trade, right?
- 48:21You cannot do that. You cannot do that with Bitcoin
- 48:24either, so that's actually the central section.
- 48:27And regarding the Syrian before the marriage you don't get it
- 48:34Nico. That was not the true etherium.
- 48:37We need to continue trying to get through a theory, right?
- 48:40So it's like this, they are never going to get it because
- 48:43they always say that thing from the bus, Ico stuff in the 2017,
- 48:49that's it was not a theory. And when they started doing the
- 48:52gaming thing, it's day. It failed miserably because they
- 48:57didn't keep it simple. The eyes so much complexity to
- 49:01their contract that anyone can go and empty their wallets.
- 49:05They see how the millions dollars worth of water.
- 49:08That's right. So they do it every week and
- 49:12they don't, keep it simple. That is say, that was not a
- 49:14theory. Is it?
- 49:16Remind me a lot about someone who says something about Tara is
- 49:20more than USD. That's why we're going to make
- 49:23it again. Because that thing of the past,
- 49:26that's not true. That's not the everyday reality.
- 49:29We want, we can do it again. Everyone me something, you left
- 49:33that country also they that's not real socialist we are going
- 49:37to wha You can see the GitHub, the preface of their white paper
- 49:59is actually a quote for an, a terrorist who was is the Uruguay
- 50:08going man. And that's the preface of the
- 50:12white paper. So that's the same which each
- 50:15and every one of the co-founders and founders of all the if
- 50:19you're even consistent project you can see what they were
- 50:24before. For on their Twitter and you
- 50:25what they currently are on the GitHub, they put it right there
- 50:29and I can quote like, basically, we trying to make communist
- 50:33where you basically that's not, that's not a lie.
- 50:36You can go to gape at check it out.
- 50:38Don't forget, don't forget, don't trust verify at this guy's
- 50:42is exactly why she should literally stick to Simply
- 50:47Bitcoin. Anyways, Opti it's time.
