Michael Saylor's Bitcoin Strategy VINDICATED | EP 872 · Simply Bitcoin

0:05
It's. All going to zero against
0:08
Bitcoin. It's going up forever.
0:18
You're against Bitcoin. You're against freedom.
0:22
Yeah. Welcome to another episode of
0:24
Simply Bitcoin Live. We're your number one source for
0:26
the peaceful Bitcoin revolution of breaking news culture of
0:28
medic warfare. We will be your guide through
0:29
the separation of money and state.
0:32
Today is going to be a very special episode.
0:34
We have three major topics we're going to cover.
0:37
First major topic is going to be the Twitter lawsuit.
0:41
So Twitter Elon Musk with now it's called XI.
0:45
Guess you could say X Elon Musk sued this company called Media
0:51
Matters and Media Matters. What they did over the last
0:53
couple days, over the last week, is that they attacked Twitter by
0:59
attacking some of their revenue sources by basically making the
1:02
claim that Twitter was putting some advertisements, some ads
1:07
next to extremist far right content.
1:11
But it's been discovered after the fact that this was
1:15
fabricated, it was artificially produced.
1:18
They had to kind of mess with the algorithm, create fake
1:21
accounts in order for that to get to get those results.
1:24
But a lot of major advertisers have pulled out.
1:28
We're talking about Amazon, NBC, Disney, they've all kind of
1:32
suspended their advertising on Twitter.
1:34
So they're obviously trying to attack freedom of speech.
1:38
And I think that's what this is all about.
1:40
Remember when Elon Musk took it over, it was also discovered
1:45
that the FBI and members of the US government we're tapping on
1:49
Twitter to censor certain types of political speech.
1:53
And what we always cover on this show is we're not only living
1:57
through the disintermediation of money, but we're also living
2:00
through the disintermediation of information.
2:02
The Internet started the fire, the fire of freedom and nation
2:07
States, government institutions that have been used to being
2:12
able to control the narrative for the longest time.
2:16
Now that the Internet is blossoming and you have
2:19
individuals that all they need is a camera and a microphone and
2:23
they could broadcast from wherever around the world
2:25
instantaneously and they can circumvent the gatekeepers of
2:29
information, it becomes very difficult for governments or for
2:33
institutions that have been operating under a controlled
2:38
narrative. And that's the that's the reason
2:41
why they want to censor. They don't want people to talk
2:45
freely amongst each other. And that leads me to my second
2:48
point. If they have an issue with you
2:52
just talking freely amongst each other, you still believe them
2:56
when they tell you they're going to respect your privacy and your
2:59
freedom to transact with CBDCS because if they have a problem
3:03
they can't help themselves, even in the US.
3:06
But to censor speech? What makes you think that
3:10
they're not going to do the exact same thing with money?
3:14
Money is even more powerful, a more powerful form of speech.
3:18
You can cause people to self censor because they don't want
3:22
their money to be shut down. If you don't believe me, if you
3:25
still think that this is only happening in China, this
3:28
happened in Canada, Remember the Canadian truckers protest and
3:31
you know the only thing that they couldn't shut down, it was
3:34
Bitcoin. That message from Nunchuck was
3:36
absolutely historic and iconic. The second thing we're going to
3:39
talk about today is Michael Saylor's strategy.
3:42
His Bitcoin strategy has been vindicated.
3:46
His average price when he bought Bitcoin is around $29,000 right
3:52
now, Bitcoin sitting pretty at 37,338.
3:57
Clearly his strategy has been proven right.
4:01
Here's a graph that we're going to go over during the show
4:03
performance. Since August 10th, 2020, when
4:06
MicroStrategy adopted its Bitcoin strategy, Bitcoin is up
4:10
214% Since then. The S&P 500 is only up 31%.
4:16
The NASDAQ is only up 26%. Gold is down 3%, silver's down
4:21
20% and bonds are down 23%. It looks like the Bitcoin
4:26
strategy is the winning strategy.
4:29
Now what is so significant about this is because this is going to
4:33
put public pressure on other public companies to take a look
4:37
at over take a look at micro strategy and maybe not go so
4:41
deep like Michael Saylor. Maybe not just put 100 more than
4:44
100% of the company's treasury into Bitcoin, but just putting 5
4:49
percent, 10% right with these gains with the well, you know
4:52
clearly he's been vindicated. Clearly the Bitcoin strategy is
4:57
the way. And for the culture segment of
4:59
the show, we have some very special guests that we brought
5:01
up today. We have the boys back from
5:03
Revolution Mining to talk about mining, to talk about hosting
5:07
with them. They make mining for you
5:08
extremely easy. We have, we have Ted and we have
5:12
Ed as well. Thank you guys so much for
5:14
joining us today. How you guys doing?
5:19
I think Ed, you're you're you're muted, you're muted.
5:22
Can you guys hear me? Hey, Ed, Yes, Sir.
5:25
How you doing? Welcome back.
5:27
Honored to be here guys. And man, I think the when was
5:31
the last time we brought you guys back?
5:33
It was. It was like a couple months ago.
5:35
Yeah, yeah, it was, man, it looks like it's, I can't believe
5:39
it's been a couple of months. It's been times have been
5:41
flying. Yeah.
5:43
Thank you guys so much for for coming.
5:44
I I had the pleasure to go out to lunch with Ed in Los Angeles
5:49
and we ate some some Iranian from some Persian food and I had
5:54
this plate called the Sultan, which is just like these two
5:58
kebabs and with a bunch of rice and it was absolutely delicious.
6:02
So I'm happy, so happy these boys are back on the show.
6:05
Anyways, Opti, what are we gonna talk about during the Culture,
6:07
brother? Yes.
6:08
So we're gonna be talking about some stuff that Ed and Tad are
6:12
doing over there at Revolution Mining.
6:14
But I will kind of ask them about what's going on with the
6:16
hash raid. It's going absolutely nuclear.
6:19
So we'll talk about some of the mining economics, what's going
6:21
on in the mining space and then what they're doing and you know,
6:26
point people towards some Bitcoin mining signal, so.
6:30
It's another good day here, bro. It's always a good day.
6:33
It's always a good day in Bitcoin.
6:35
You know, it's it is the Bitcoin roller coaster.
6:37
But there's always something going on, that's for sure.
6:40
All right, everybody, no more delay.
6:41
Let's jump straight into the show.
6:42
We have a lot to talk about today.
6:43
Let's check it out the Bitcoin numbers.
6:48
Is your Bitcoin and cold storage really secure?
6:51
Is your seed phrase really secure?
6:54
Stamp seeds? Do it yourself.
6:56
Kit has everything you need to hammer your seed words into
6:59
commercial grade titanium plates instead of just writing them on
7:03
paper. Don't store your generational
7:06
wealth on paper. Papers prone to water damage,
7:10
fire damage. You want to put your
7:12
generational wealth on one of the strongest metals on planet
7:15
earth, Titanium. Your words are actually stamped
7:17
into this metal plate with this hammer and these letter stamps.
7:21
And once your words are in, they aren't going anywhere.
7:24
No risk of the plate breaking apart and pieces falling
7:27
everywhere. Titanium stamp seeds will
7:30
survive nearly triple the heat produced by a house fire.
7:33
They're also crush proof, waterproof, non corrosive, and
7:36
time proof. All things that paper is not
7:38
allowing you to huddle your Bitcoin with Peace of Mind for
7:41
the long haul. Stamp your seed on stamps.
7:45
All right guys, I made it super easy for you guys.
7:47
You could scan the QR code on your screen right now.
7:49
It'll take you directly to the Stamp Seed website where you can
7:53
scan the QR code and you can buy yourself a titanium seed phrase
7:58
storage kit. So you don't have to explain to
8:00
your children why your grandchildren why you lost your
8:03
generational wealth because you stored it on paper and not
8:06
titanium. At the time of recording, the
8:08
Bitcoin price is 37,435 SATS per dollar 2672 block height 817,827
8:18
blocks to having 22,173 having estimate April 20th, 2024 Total
8:24

million U.S. dollars Realized Monetary inflation 1.75% The
8:36
market capitalization of Bitcoin 730 $1 billion with the B
8:41
Bitcoin versus gold market cap 5.47%.
8:45
In the grand scheme of things, Bitcoin is still a tiny little.
8:49
Baby, hey, wait. Nico, before you go on, I don't
8:50
mean to cut you off, but your toothbrush is going off in your
8:54
drawer. Yeah, dude, there's someone
8:56
drilling upstairs and it is what it is.
8:59
It's going to be one of those episodes where the toothbrush is
9:05
anyways too much, so I wanted to cover this.
9:08
I hope it's not too annoying, guys.
9:10
I'll lower my gain a little bit and I'll speak closer into the
9:12
mic. OK, so we're gonna talk about X
9:16
and we're gonna talk about this attack that happened.
9:19
Make no mistake, it was. I believe it was on purpose.
9:24
And this it all came from one of these articles and it says X is
9:27
placing ads for Amazon, NBA, Mexico, NBC Universal and others
9:32
next to content with white nationalist hashtags.
9:36
Now you'd think, OK, that's horrible.
9:38
You know why are they doing that?
9:40
You know they they mentioned pro Hitler account, Holocaust liars
9:44
leaning white, nationalist group, neo Nazis, anti-Semitic
9:47
conspiracy theories about 911. It's horrible.
9:50
You know, you hear this and you're like, this is terrible.
9:52
Like, what the hell is going on, right?
9:55
But then you have to dig a little bit deeper, right?
9:58
Here is Michael Shellenberger and he says the media says X is
10:03
placing Apple, IBM, and other ads near pro Nazi content, but
10:07
it's not. We tried various ways to
10:09
replicate Media Matters research and couldn't.
10:12
The real goal of Media Matters isn't to fight anti-Semitism,
10:15
it's to destroy X as a free speech platform.
10:20
Here is the actual lawsuit filed by Elon Musk and the X.
10:25
It goes on to say defendant. Media Matters for America's is a
10:29
self-proclaimed media watchdog that decided it would not let
10:33
the truth get in the way of a story it want to publish about
10:36
X. Looking to portray X social
10:38
social networking platform as being dominated by white
10:41
nationalist and anti-Semitic conspiracy theories.
10:44
Media Matters knowingly and maliciously manufactured side by
10:48
side images decepting advertisers posts on X social
10:52
media platform beside neo Nazi and white nationalist fringe
10:55
content and then portrayed these manufactured images as if they
10:59
were typical X user experience on the platform.
11:02
Media Matters design both these images and its resulting media
11:07
strategy to drive advertisers from the platform and destroy X.
11:13
So this is really about destroying the revenue of X
11:16
because Elon Musk has been pushing the freedom of speech
11:20
stuff. Remember what happened when X
11:23
was when Twitter was a public company?
11:25
Remember what happened, what was revealed with the Twitter files?
11:29
The Twitter Files revealed that Twitter was actively censoring
11:34
certain speech on request of the US government.
11:38
Right. So clearly X is one of those
11:41
platforms the US government does not have control, doesn't have
11:44
direct control over and it has and it has a a huge platform,
11:48
right. So you could say they could
11:50
censor on YouTube, you can say they can censor on Facebook.
11:54
That's why you have the rise of platforms like rumble shout out
11:57
to our rumble audience that are taking the stance that's saying,
12:01
no, we're not gonna censor, we're not gonna shut down
12:03
certain speech. So if you can't directly censor
12:07
anymore because now it's a private company that's owned by
12:10
Elon Musk, what do you do? You attack the revenue.
12:15
And again, this isn't just Elon making, you know, making these
12:20
claims. Now it looks like the Attorney
12:22
General of Texas has stepped in as well and says the Office of
12:26
Attorney General is opening an investigation into Media Matters
12:29
for potential fraudulent activity under the Texas
12:33
Business Organization Code and the Deceptive Trade Practices
12:36
Act. The OAG will vigorously enforce
12:39
against nonprofits who commit fraudulent acts in or affecting
12:43
the state of Texas. Goes on to say, quote.
12:46
We are examining the issue closely to ensure that the
12:49
public has not been deceived by the schemes of radical left wing
12:52
organizations who would like nothing more than to limit
12:55
freedom by reducing participation in the public
12:58
square. Now again, if you still don't
13:01
believe simply Bitcoin, I get it.
13:02
We're a Bitcoin show, you know, we support freedom.
13:05
Maybe, maybe a lot, because we're a Bitcoin show.
13:09
We were celebrating the Javier Malik victory a lot Here is you
13:13
can't say she's mainstream anymore, she has gone
13:15
independent. But here is very well respected
13:18
journalist Megyn Kelly and let's see what she has to say about
13:21
what's going on with X and the censorship.
13:23
The owner of the social media platform formerly known as
13:26
Twitter and renamed X, Elon Musk, is going to war with the
13:31
the vile, disgusting Media Matters.
13:35
They're awful. They're dishonest.
13:38
If you hear Media Matters says you all, your antenna should
13:42
perk up. I'm about to be fed some
13:44
bullshit. You may know Media Matters as a
13:46
progressive organization that uses pressure campaigns to
13:49
suppress speech, where they usually focus their hate on Fox
13:54
News and any conservative commentator.
13:56
I have been the victim of their smears many, many times over the
14:01
years, which is why I have the opinion of them that I do.
14:05
But they have started a new mission more recently, trying to
14:08
get advertisers on X to leave the platform.
14:10
They're trying to kill X. They can't stand, cannot stand
14:16
that there's one platform not controlled by their people.
14:20
It's very annoying to them that Elon Musk will not bend the knee
14:24
to them. So I mean, that's why I played
14:27
you guys the clip for Megyn Kelly, so you guys wouldn't hear
14:30
the opinions from simply Bitcoin.
14:32
But I think it's deeper than the right and left and we always
14:36
focus on, we always try to stay bipartisan and we always try to
14:40
stay neutral. What we stand for is the party
14:43
of Orange, the party of freedom, Bitcoin, opportunity and
14:47
prosperity versus the party of green, the party of nihilism,
14:51
the party of slavery, the party of central bank digital
14:53
currencies. And it the right and left really
14:56
doesn't make sense in this situation because there are
15:00
Republican senators that are on the party of green.
15:02
There are Democratic senators that are on the party of Orange,
15:06
so it doesn't really make sense to look at it from the
15:08
traditional right and left spectrum.
15:10
You have to look at it from the spectrum of who stands for
15:13
freedom, who stands for Bitcoin versus who stands for central
15:17
bank digital currencies. And the reason that I played you
15:19
that clip by Megyn Kelly at the very end is because you heard it
15:22
from her mouth. You didn't hear it from simply
15:24
Bitcoin's mouth. Clearly, Media Matters has an
15:27
agenda and that agenda is if we can't directly censor Speech on
15:32
X, what we're going to do is we're going to attack their
15:34
revenue, we're going to destroy the platform.
15:37
And if that means we have to lie, smear, manipulate the data
15:42
for a certain agenda, we are willing to do that.
15:45
Now another thing This highlights the the attack
15:51
vectors of centralized platforms.
15:54
Because Twitter is centralized, because Twitter is run by a
15:59
single individual or a company, it can't, you can, you know,
16:04
bend the arm of Twitter a little bit, but look at look at
16:08
protocols like Noster. Look at protocols like Bitcoin.
16:12
There is no Bitcoin CEO to sue. There is no Noster CEO to sue.
16:20
The speech just stays there. You just have to deal with it.
16:24
And because you have to deal with it, that is a forcing
16:27
function to open discourse, open discussion.
16:31
If you can't make the speech go away, you're going to have to
16:34
debate it on the free market of ideas, right?
16:37
But clearly what you're seeing is, and I don't think this is a
16:41
left wing thing, I think that you're seeing forces, right
16:46
institutions, governments that have been used to having a
16:49
monopoly on information for decades and decades and decades
16:54
and decades losing that monopoly because of the Internet.
16:59
And what are they doing? They're fighting back.
17:01
They're like, no, wait a second. If you know, if the president or
17:05
if if a certain government bureaucrat says something like
17:09
Biden the other day, basically saying I hate the fact that
17:12
people think that inflation comes from the government, We
17:16
can't have people on Twitter calling out that bullshit and
17:20
community noting me, you can't have that.
17:23
That makes me look bad. So therefore, what is their knee
17:26
jerk reaction we have to censor. These are the same people that
17:31
are telling you trust us with CBD CS we're not going to do the
17:35
same thing. How about no same thing.
17:41
You you won't be able to help but do the same thing.
17:45
You can't help yourself with information.
17:47
So you can't help yourself with well, you won't be able to help
17:50
yourself with money. And I'll play you guys this
17:53
clip. Right this clip that just
17:55
dropped came from the from a from a.
17:59
From a White House. From a White House.
18:03
What you call it, from the White House press secretary.
18:06
And the gaslighting is just through the roof.
18:10
This is just absolutely absurd. Remember we were making fun of
18:14
the GIF or the image that came out last year of the White House
18:18
basically laying out the prices of Turkey and stuff like that,
18:22
right? Well, they came back this year
18:25
and they're look what they're saying.
18:26
And then you guys let me know if you feel this in your pockets
18:30
just in the time, just in time for holiday travel.
18:33
Gas prices are down $1.70 from their peak, airline tickets are
18:37
down 13% over the last year and car rentals are down about 10%.
18:41
And as we start preparing our Thanksgiving meals, grocery
18:43
inflation is at its lowest level in over.
18:45
Two years, with prices for eggs, milks, bacon and fresh veggies
18:47
lower than last year. In fact, according to the
18:50
American Farm Bureau, the cost of a Thanksgiving dinner fell
18:53
this year. Prices are down for Turkey,
18:55
stuffing, peas, cranberries, pie crust and whipping cream.
18:58
We. Had a big discussion about
18:59
whipping cream in the back. Like, no whipping cream.
19:01
It's like a whipped cream, but not whipping cream anyway,
19:03
because wages are rising. This Thanksgiving dinner is the
19:06
4th cheapest ever as a percentage of average earnings.
19:09
Finally, as we look ahead like No, no, that's not true.
19:14
That's not true. That that, ladies and gentlemen,
19:16
is gaslighting. And here's the thing.
19:19
It's not that inflation brings the price.
19:22
It's like inflation slows down and brings prices back, back,
19:26
back lower. That's not what that means.
19:28
That just means that if inflation goes back down, it
19:31
means that prices aren't increasing as fast, but it
19:35
doesn't mean that they're down. Prices haven't gone down 5%
19:39
compared to last year. So what you're seeing is
19:43
gaslighting and because you have platforms like X, because you
19:48
have platforms like Noster or in Rumble that they can't pull that
19:52
down, They're using political law fair to try to attack the
19:58
revenue sources to pull it down that way.
20:01
This is the separation of money in state, ladies and gentlemen.
20:04
This is the separation of information in state.
20:07
You're living through it. You're witnessing it first hand.
20:10
And look what? Remember what Naimbu Kelly said.
20:13
Their most important weapon is their control on truth, and
20:17
they're losing it and they're desperate to maintain it
20:21
Anyways, Opti, what's your take? And then we'll move on to our
20:23
guests. Yeah, well, we've been seeing
20:25
throughout the year the constant attack on information, on free
20:30
speech. And again, you know, I know our
20:33
chat is very cynical in regards to Musk and whether Twitter's
20:37
actually moving towards a free speech platform.
20:41
At least this is what he's saying on the surface.
20:43
But we are seeing in response to that kind of, you know,
20:47
projection of free speech on Twitter, just the visceral,
20:51
violent attacks against him. And that just it it kind of
20:54
makes me feel like maybe he is actually moving towards a free
20:58
speech platform. Maybe this is controlled
21:00
opposition. But the theme remains the same,
21:03
that free speech is dangerous to the status quo.
21:07
The flow of information has to be stifled or else the truth
21:10
will be set free. And once that truth does get set
21:13
free and people wake up to what's actually going on, things
21:15
unravel very quickly. Hence why the powers that be are
21:19
so afraid of free speech happening on any platform,
21:22
whether it's us discussing this on YouTube, whether it's people
21:25
discussing this on Twitter, it it it destroys their narrative.
21:30
And once the narrative is destroyed, then trust is lost.
21:33
And we've been constantly covering on the show, either on
21:36
IR, LS, on TT OS, on the live show, that the only thing
21:40
keeping the system going right now is the fact that people
21:43
still trust in the official people coming up on television
21:46
in the suits, the experts. And we're seeing that the
21:49
numbers, the math is showing that they either are not looking
21:54
at the same numbers or they have manipulated them and they're
21:57
lying. And as we see with Twitter or
22:01
with this lawsuit right now, the pressure point is always hitting
22:04
the money. We saw this happen this year in
22:06
various different scenarios, whether it's Bitcoin related,
22:09
whether it's more celebrity culture related, if you hit the
22:13
money then as Nico, he says. And people are much more afraid
22:17
of talking about the topics that really matter.
22:20
And of course This is why we Bitcoin having a money that is
22:23
censorship resistant. That is the basement proof that
22:28
they can't steal from you, that they can't stop it from going
22:30
that once it's in the blockchain, it is what it is.
22:33
And Bitcoin takes away the power of the money printer, it takes
22:37
back truth and it takes it out of the hands of the people that
22:40
are here to quote UN quote, protect you.
22:43
And as we saw, I mean, she said that the Thanksgiving dinner is
22:48
cheaper based off the peak. And yeah, the peak was extremely
22:52
high based on the CPA numbers and they just manipulated them
22:55
to make everything like cheaper. And so you can't listen to them.
22:59
I mean, look, I haven't bought Thanksgiving dinner yet.
23:01
I I, you know, I don't buy all the fixings.
23:03
I'm going to go do a Friendsgiving.
23:05
But I can personally tell you that eggs are not 22% cheaper
23:08
than they were last year. Like it's getting absolutely
23:12
insane. And you know, they, you can lie
23:14
with numbers. What's that one book?
23:15
I think it's Bill Gates's book. Or Bill Gates is most famous for
23:18
reading it. How to lie with mathematics.
23:21
This is what's constantly going on.
23:23
And people are still falling for the fact that CPI is a
23:27
manipulated number. And so as long as these
23:29
headlines are being rolled out and shown that like, oh, things
23:33
are getting cheaper, most people don't have the time to really
23:35
look into it. And we just know that as long as
23:37
they can flow, as long as they can manipulate the flow of
23:41
information, then a lot of people out there are going to
23:44
get absolutely wrecked because they're leading them off a
23:47
Cliff. And This is why we constantly
23:49
come on the show and rebut all of the BS coming out of the
23:54
corporate press. Like you can't trust anything
23:56
coming out from the corporate media.
23:58
I'm reminded again, I I think I've referenced this so many
24:01
times on the show, the Balaji and Marty Bent interview, where
24:06
he was saying that what we're seeing right now is just the the
24:10
numbers are being manipulated so much that no one knows what's up
24:13
from down. And this is where we are.
24:15
The economy is hurting, but everyone out on the television
24:19
is telling you that we're in the best place ever.
24:21
And so if people don't know what's actually going on,
24:23
they're going to get absolutely devastated.
24:25
Hence why we keep telling you guys that you need to have some
24:28
savings in Bitcoin. You need to protect yourself
24:30
because these people do not have your best interests in mind.
24:34
Yeah, 100%. Anyways, fellas, you guys have
24:36
some takes. I'm sure you guys have been
24:38
noticing what's been going on the the toothbrush looks like
24:41
it's off now. So what are your guys's takes on
24:44
that? We'll start with with with Ed.
24:46
It's it's it's just ridiculousness that it's it's
24:51
just funny that we we've reached the point that that you know we
24:55
we need to go on TV and try to convince people that the price
24:59
of Turkey has gone down that that's just I mean.
25:03
You know, is is do you really need to convince people or can
25:07
people just feel that themselves when they go to the grocery
25:10
store, when they go to the gas station or when they want to buy
25:13
a house? Right.
25:14
It's you don't need to convince people that prices have gone
25:18
down. You know, if if you have to do
25:21
that, that means prices haven't gone down.
25:24
Yeah, exactly. No, it's it's it's total
25:27
gaslighting anyways. What's your take, man?
25:29
So I my background is economics. So you know, I can tell you that
25:34
the CPI number is not the true inflation number.
25:38
It's actually much higher right now that is manipulated.
25:43
Also I, you know, it's I I think that the US government and
25:50
either party, if it's you know the liberals or the, you know,
25:53
if we have Republicans in the House they will.
25:58
Definitely manipulate the news for their favor.
26:02
Not just that, but the monetary supply, supply, their policies.
26:08
Elections are coming next year, so they're tightening everything
26:11
up, right? Federal Reserve is increasing
26:13
rates. Let's try and slow down, cool
26:16
the economy. And then you know what?
26:18
I bet you next year when election times comes comes
26:21
around, they're going to start printing money again.
26:24
They're going to start lowering rates again.
26:26
The feds is the Fed is going to start cutting rates to boost up
26:30
the economy and that's going to start decreasing our money.
26:33
So you know, the value of the dollar again.
26:37
So these people are literally not just messing with the
26:40
economy, but these are, you know, it's people's lives and
26:46
people's assets, people's retirements.
26:49
So that's why, like the only safe haven is basically Bitcoin,
26:52
right, 100%. It can't manipulate that and
26:56
you're stuck with that. Yeah, and it it because it can't
26:58
be manipulated. It's a forcing function.
27:00
Like it just puts up a mirror and it's like it it highlights
27:04
how ridiculous their stances are.
27:06
They can no longer, just. But make people believe the lie.
27:10
And whether it's the Internet, whether it's Bitcoin, times are
27:14
changing. But you know, I think that's why
27:16
the beast is fighting back. Anyways, I do want to give a
27:18
shout out to our sponsor, Bitcoin 2024.

29:40
This is Michael Saylor. He went on Fox Business.
29:42
We never played this for you guys, and this was kind of a big
29:44
deal. And he went on Fox Business to
29:47
discuss how companies can escape the destructive cycle of the
29:51
conventional corporate finance playbook, preserve their capital
29:55
and keep up with the magnificent Magnificent 7 and create
29:59
shareholder value using a Bitcoin strategy similar to
30:03
MicroStrategy. Anyway, MicroStrategy is
30:05
executive chairman. Michael Saylor.
30:07
Michael, I've got to give you props my man.
30:09
So August 10th, 2020 Micro Strategies adopted Bitcoin
30:11
strategy. The experts called you a fool.
30:13
So far you're crushing everything.
30:14
I mean I'm looking at the list. Even Bitcoin you're crushing.
30:17
But some of these other known the SP.
30:18
You're destroying Google, Microsoft, Apple.
30:19
You're beating them all by easily Oracle.
30:21
So take us back. Take us back to when you made
30:23
this decision. You knew you would be ridiculed.
30:25
Why did you do it? Thanks Charles, for having me.
30:29
You know, most corporations are being torn apart by these twin
30:31
forces of inflation from the government and then technology
30:34
driven deflation. So if you're a Main Street
30:36
company, you're forced to fight for your survival with one hand
30:38
tied behind your back. If you're going to keep up with
30:40
the Magnificent 7, you're going to grow your revenues and cash
30:42
flows 20% a year or faster ad infinitum.
30:45
You know, so the seven companies that generate all the
30:47
shareholder returns or 7000 companies can't keep up.
30:49
What we did in August of 2020 was recognized that there's no
30:52
way we're going to outgrow Google and Microsoft and and
30:55
Apple computer as a mid size software company.
30:57
So we started looking to do an acquisition of a high growth
31:00
digital monopoly of our own and we realized that Bitcoin is like
31:04
a high tech dominant digital network growing at 40 or 50% a
31:07
year. And so we bought it.
31:08
It's kept growing 40 or 50% a year and now we're using our
31:11
balance sheet to grow the company as well as our P&L.
31:14
Let's talk about the business side of it, the the AI side of
31:16
it, it's all the range obviously.
31:17
What is micro strategies doing with respect to artificial
31:19
intelligence? Mind you, the price of Bitcoin
31:23
at that time was $35,000. So he's even more right and if
31:29
you take a look at some of the graphics, right, I think they're
31:31
even more striking. So Bitcoin is winning Bitcoin
31:35
here 214%. Compared to the SMP 531%, NASDAQ
31:42
26%, Gold -3%, Silver -20%, Bonds -23%.
31:49
So it's very obvious here for anyone who's looking, that
31:55
Michael Saylor chose the correct strategy.
31:58
He's kind of, you know, dancing on a grave right here.
32:02
I feel bad for Peter Schiff. When he saw this, probably
32:04
probably a little tear came out of his eye.
32:07
But 214% compared to -3% if you are holding on to gold, that
32:12
shiny rock even though I like physical gold, not, not not
32:15
going to lie. So I mean look it's clear as day
32:20
that Michael Saylor has been vindicated and I think it's it's
32:23
going to be also clear as day that in the next couple of of
32:27
years and what not, I think other companies are going to
32:31
follow suit I would say faster than a couple of years.
32:33
I think it's it's not going to be an option.
32:36
To hold Bitcoin on a company's portfolio, you're going to, it's
32:40
going to be a necessity to do it just to keep up with everyone
32:43
else. And Michael Saylor was
32:45
ridiculed. I never remember.
32:47
I never forget Pacific Bitcoin 2022.
32:51
Price of Bitcoin at the time was 16,700.
32:56
This man was down billions of dollars sitting front stage in
32:59
the VIP area. He was watching every, every
33:03
panel and the guy was cool as a cucumber.
33:06
He did not give a flying F and boy has he been effing
33:12
vindicated. And this is just the start.
33:16
This is 214% and Bitcoin is just coming out of a bear market in
33:23
two or three years. It's going to be obvious.
33:27
It's going to be obvious the shareholders are going to
33:31
pressure these companies to follow the strategy.
33:34
And I'm going to pass it on to you, Ted.
33:36
You have a finance background, You have experience in this.
33:39
Am I incorrect with my statement?
33:42
Yeah that's right. That's right.
33:45
I mean that this is you know it's he did really well and it's
33:52
interesting I mean he's like he's so his company is so vested
33:56
in this and he just you know he when the crash was hitting he
34:04
just. He was, he kept it very cool.
34:07
He didn't liquidate and look it's he's going to be one of the
34:13
probably maybe even like you know the most his micro strategy
34:20
is probably going to have the highest market cap at some
34:22
point. So I wouldn't be surprised if it
34:25
takes over, you know, Tesla or Amazon and he's and all these
34:32
companies are just going to be following suit.
34:36
Yeah, 100%. I I 100% agree with that
34:38
statement. It's just the very beginning.
34:39
Ladies and gentlemen. You ran Wall Street if you've
34:42
been stacking stacks, stacking sats.
34:45
Anyways, Ed, what's your take on this?
34:47
And then we'll pass it on to Opti.
34:49
And it's it's, it's it's just, you know, you see these
34:54
strategies playing out in real time and and paying off and and
34:59
and not not a very long period too, in a pretty short amount of
35:03
time. And it just sets the precedent
35:07
for other companies to to see what benefits that they can see
35:12
if they if they hold their balance sheet in in Bitcoin.
35:16
You know it's I think, I think that's kind of the bigger
35:20
picture for me is that you know you when you have one successful
35:25
company, other companies are are going to be left behind if if
35:31
they don't follow a similar strategy so.
35:34
I think that's the exciting part.
35:38
Yeah, man. It's, it's, it's, it's.
35:40
I think it's just the beginning. It's extremely exciting like you
35:43
said. And holy cow, what a good time
35:46
to be a bitcoiner. Opti, what's your take on all
35:48
this, bro? Are we gonna see the mother of
35:50
all bull markets coming very, very soon?
35:53
Because I know Opti's extremely bullish.
35:56
I've been saying that for a minute, guys, I I know everyone
35:59
still. I know everyone's still.
36:00
Bearish full screen. Yeah, I know everyone's still
36:02
bearish out there and we all have ETSD and we want we're
36:05
trying to be conservative in our price predictions.
36:07
But I don't know may maybe I'm too close to the news, but I I
36:11
just see a perfect storm setting up for this next halving.
36:15
And I think that we are all underestimating how big this
36:21
next bull run is going to be. First of all, like we are seeing
36:24
here, you know corporate treasuries are a big are.
36:27
Corporate corporations holding Bitcoin on their Treasuries is
36:31
going to be the big play moving forward.
36:33
And everyone is watching Sailor take the cake right now.
36:36
Everyone is sitting on the sidelines like damn, is Sailor
36:39
still just like a a lunatic fringe investor or is he the one
36:44
that is winning? Like is he the one over the
36:45
target? And he's not the only one guys
36:48
like we know Black Rock's Larry Fink is looking at sailors gains
36:52
right now and getting jealous. And now think about all the
36:54
other companies with trillions of dollars of melting ice cubes
36:58
on the sidelines. I think we are all
36:59
underestimating how big this next bull run is going to be.
37:02
Because look, I came in in 2017 and I remember the FOMO that I
37:07
saw in regards to retail investors getting into Bitcoin.
37:10
And now we're no longer in the minor leagues.
37:12
Guys, every institution asset manager of the world is looking
37:17
at Bitcoin as a viable solution to the problem that everyone is
37:21
facing right now. Inflation is taking their money.
37:23
You can't save in dollars. There isn't very many options
37:27
and it's looking like Bitcoin is the fastest horse in the race.
37:30
So if we continue to add on top of that all the multiplication
37:36
that it's going to take in this bull run, you know we're seeing
37:39
nation states adopting Bitcoin. We're going to see, as Nico, he
37:42
said Buchelle be vindicated. We're seeing sailor be
37:44
vindicated. We're seeing corporate press
37:46
talk about Bitcoin every single day.
37:48
It is the defining conversation. Whether they want to talk about
37:51
it or not, it is always being talked about.
37:54
They're doing their best to gaslight us.
37:55
They're doing their best to minimize bitcoins impact on the
37:59
global financial markets. And now we're seeing that every
38:05
corporation's going to want to get into Bitcoin.
38:07
And look, I know, I know, what I really like to see is
38:10
individuals adopting Bitcoin. But I'm just seeing a feedback
38:14
loop here where we're going to see more nation states add
38:18
Bitcoin to the treasuries. We're going to see the biggest
38:21
corporations in the world add Bitcoin to the treasuries.
38:23
We're going to see corporate media talk about Bitcoin
38:26
constantly as the price starts rising.
38:28
We're going to see retail FOMO into Bitcoin like never before.
38:32
And I really just think like 100K, it's what, a 3X away from
38:37
here. Like I I just think we're all
38:38
being very, very bearish and conservative in our price
38:42
speculations because we all got burnt in the past and we don't
38:44
want to be too stupidly bullish. But you know me, I stay bullet
38:48
hearted and I'm just seeing, I'm just seeing this play out and
38:51
I'm like look, we're getting more more media coverage.
38:56
We're going to see the biggest companies in the world adopt
38:59
Bitcoin. We're going to see more and more
39:01
nation states adopt Bitcoin. And the FOMO is going to be like
39:05
never before because we have all of these Bitcoin only
39:09
infrastructure built out. And you know in the US we're
39:13
seeing the institutions fighting shit coins.
39:15
So where's all that capital going to go that used to pump
39:17
shit coins? It's going to go into Bitcoin
39:20
and if you think we're only going to hit 100K, like you're
39:24
too bearish and I don't like bears, so you need to be bullish
39:28
guys like I. I'm censoring OPTI for being too
39:31
bullish on the show. I'm just censor shit.
39:35
Oh, man. Oh, man.
39:37
All right, guys. No.
39:39
Yeah, I I echo optis optimism and bullishness.
39:42
I I do. I do believe that there's
39:45
something different just because of Naimbukaya.
39:47
The nation state level and then of course the Chad Saylor on the
39:51
public company level. Also breaking news.
39:53
We will cover this tomorrow. CZ is stepping down in a deal
39:58
with that he's reached with the DOJ in return for, I guess, not
40:02
pressing charges against him. Is this the Is this the final
40:05
sacrifice for the bull run? We will.
40:07
We will be covering that tomorrow.
40:09

Classic. Simply Bitcoin censorship.
41:20
Now he flips it on me. All right guys.
41:23
So Ed, Ted, we were talking before the show.
41:27
And before we get into what you guys are working on, I'd like to
41:30
get just like a general market analysis of what's going on in
41:35
the Bitcoin mining space. And I have this chart here.
41:40
Let me pull this up for you guys so that we can get a visual for
41:44
everyone out there. But the amount of hash rate
41:48
we've seen come on the network recently is is absolutely mind
41:52
blowing. And it it's just absolutely
41:54
incredible. And we and I said it before the
41:56
show and and most people know the meme but Bitcoin miners are
41:59
the most bullish in regards to Bitcoin.
42:01
You can't just spin up infrastructure.
42:03
You can't just like get in and get out.
42:05
So what do Bitcoin miners know that everyone else on Main
42:09
Street don't know? What what are you guys seeing on
42:11
your end? And we're seeing tremendous
42:15
demand also, You know, we've been in the market for a couple
42:20
of years now. And I can tell you that when
42:25
Bitcoin prices start to rally, equipment prices start going up
42:31
too. So in my opinion, I think, I
42:34
mean ourselves as a company, we ended up buying a lot of mining
42:38
equipment machines ourselves, right?
42:42
And the idea here is you know you're you're not just acquiring
42:49
Bitcoin at a cheaper price in the long term, but also now
42:55
you're the value of your miners will start increasing as
43:02
Bitcoin's price is going up. So in my opinion, whoever that
43:07
purchased equipment, hardware in the past.
43:10
Six months, 6 to 12 months is in a very good spot right now.
43:16
Yeah. And and actually Tad, you were
43:17
telling me that there's a lot of anticipation for the new ASICS
43:22
out there. So you you want to touch on that
43:23
real quick and then we can move on?
43:25
Yeah, the new S 20s are out. You know the March, April batch
43:30
batches are already sold out. We still have some suppliers
43:33
that can probably get. Get their hands on it but bit
43:38
bit main is my understanding is bit mains officially sold out on
43:41
the US monies. Those are the new miners and we
43:46
were taking pre-orders for them as well.
43:49
But it's you know that that gives you you know the optimism
43:55
of the you know of the mining marketplace even though having
44:00
is coming up. So that's definitely good news.
44:05
Yeah, let's we'll talk about the having.
44:07
Let me pull some numbers up right here.
44:09
What what are you guys anticipating for the having as
44:12
you guys can see here I'm on on Clark Moody's dashboard 22,170
44:17
blocks to the having. We are potentially still going
44:20
to hit the meme date of April 20th, 2024.
44:23
So that would be absolutely incredible.
44:25
You know, meme is life. So what are you guys doing and
44:28
and what are you anticipating going into the having like what
44:31
are you guys hearing behind the scenes?
44:34
We we're we're building we're we're actively adding adding
44:41
capacity we're adding hash rates we're we're we're getting more
44:45
mobile data centers bringing them in and getting them
44:48
connected. So it's it's this is the time to
44:54
build out your infrastructure before the having so.
44:58
That's why you see that the hash rate continue to go up.
45:01
That's why you see miners continue to invest in
45:04
infrastructure. It's it's this is the time to do
45:08
it. So what is it?
45:10
Historically, after havings 6 to 9 months after havings, we've
45:15
had a spike in the price of Bitcoin.
45:18
And so having that historical data, it's not a surprise why
45:24
miners are continuing to expand infrastructure and add hash rate
45:28
to the network. Yeah, I love it.
45:30
Before I get into this video that you sent me, Ed, what are
45:35
your guys thoughts or maybe concerns for mining companies
45:40
going into the halving? I I know there's a lot of
45:43
rumors, and I've been talking with some friends about just let
45:45
small miners might just get absolutely devastated coming
45:48
into the halving this time around.
45:50
Yeah you need to your your energy rates have to be
45:53
competitive so, so as as we continue you know TikTok next
46:00
block right you like to say so as as that continues to happen
46:04
it gets harder and harder to mine Bitcoin and so.
46:09
You know when when events like halvings come up every couple
46:12
years, it just puts more pressure on on miners and and
46:17
the people that aren't operating efficiently with the best rates
46:22
with low cost access to low cost power, those miners are going to
46:26
get squeezed out. So it's really important that
46:29
you're able to secure access to low cost power and that's
46:33
exactly why we're in Texas on on the ERCOT grid.
46:36
Is we we have access to low cost traditional power and a mix of
46:42
clean, renewable energy like solar and wind.
46:45
Love it. Absolutely love it.
46:47
Add on to that, we we have strategically as a company,
46:51
we're probably one of the only hosting companies that Wright
46:56
currently offers 6.9 cents with MOQ 1.
47:03
The reason was we decided that we're not going to take our
47:11
power cost to 7 1/2 or $0.08 just to be fair to our clients.
47:16
We are you know working within our margins on the power and
47:20
electricity side. But we we just want to make sure
47:25
that our clients. You know the electricity for our
47:31
cost for our clients is very competitive as the halving comes
47:35
in. So as a result our clients don't
47:38
have to shut off on us and you know we we don't have to turn
47:41
around and shut off electricity on our end.
47:44
So that's 6.9 cent. You know electricity cost that
47:49
we're offering I think is important and you need to couple
47:53
that with the you know minor efficient, the minor efficiency
47:58
as well. So you need to make sure that
48:00
the hardware that you purchased like the S One 20s or the S 140
48:06
ones, I still like to think that they're very efficient.
48:11
Those are, you know, the more efficient miners that will
48:14
probably take you through the halving.
48:18
Love it. And and just if I remember
48:20
correctly aren't don't you guys own your full stack like all the
48:23
way down to the the electricity infrastructure all that stuff,
48:28
right all. Of it, all of it.
48:30
That's, yeah, it's that that's one of the things we do
48:33
different is we don't have, you know we don't have 20 different
48:40
sites. But the the the sites that we do
48:42
have and the ones that do, we do offer for hosting.
48:46
They're fully owned and fully managed by us, by our staff.
48:50
You get the entire. You know the the entire
48:54
experience is streamlined from purchasing A6 to hosting a six
49:00
and to getting those A6 serviced from beginning to end.
49:03
It's all done under one roof and that saves money for the client
49:07
too When, when, when they get to deal directly with the with the
49:13
company. So there, there's cost savings
49:16
there for the client and it's more streamlined for them.
49:19
You also, I want to stress this, we've also not over leveraged
49:24
our company. We don't have too many you know
49:28
loans outstanding like some other companies do.
49:32
The reason is I I want to run this company as lean as
49:37
possible, just in case when you know when the halving hits and
49:42
things get pretty ugly for a couple months that we can turn
49:45
the lights, keep the lights on for our clients.
49:49
Love it. Love it.
49:50
OK, Ed, you sent me this video here.
49:53
I'm going to play it. We'll play it in full, but can
49:56
you give people some context here?
49:58
What are we gonna see? You you guys are gonna see a a
50:02
typical container deployment. This is our mobile data center
50:06
unit that is custom made for us to to withstand the harsh Texas
50:12
weather. You're you're gonna see us
50:15
deploy this from from beginning to end.
50:17
This is our first MW deployment. So it was it was a very exciting
50:21
moment for us. But but yeah, this is what a
50:24
typical deployment looks like when you when you're trying to
50:28
mine Bitcoin. This is where your machines go.
50:31
This is all the work that goes behind it.
50:33
Love it. OK, let's play this.
50:35
Let's watch this. None.
51:34
Love it. Love it.
51:36
Great, great. So you're deploying these.
51:39
How many A6 go into one of these containers?
51:42
You can get about 315 to 325 in in in one of these in one of
51:48
these bad boys. Yeah.
51:50
Amazing. Amazing.
51:52
Yeah. And then we have the we have, we
51:55
have we have a 2-3 stage filtration system from there it
52:01
it goes to it goes through the Merv 8 filters that that
52:05
basically you know get all the particles out and then.
52:11
And then, yeah and and and then we we also have some other tech
52:14
that we have built in that that dissipate heats that reflect
52:17
heats and couple that with high CFM cooling.
52:22
All of that together, we we stack our cooling tech to make
52:25
sure that those machines are hashing all the time.
52:29
Love it. OK, we we actually have a good
52:31
question here. In the chat it says, what's the
52:34
what's this? What's the minimum units that
52:36
you will host? 1.
52:38
One, we don't, you know we don't believe in minimums, we don't,
52:41
we don't do that. We respect our, our customers
52:44
whether they have one machine or whether they have 100 machines.
52:47
So you know we, we, we treat you the same way.
52:51
There's, it's the same service, love to hear it, love to hear
52:54
it. OK.
52:55
Last final words. You did mention you might have
52:58
some Black Friday Deals and then you guys could just add some
53:00
last words of wisdoms and whatever you want the audience
53:03
to hear. Yeah Black Friday.
53:07
Black Friday ads are going to be dropping soon so check out the
53:12
website on on Black Friday and if you're if you're thinking
53:15
about getting into Bitcoin mining it's it's it's it's the
53:18
it's a good time to do it and Black Friday it's going to get
53:21
through the best deals and and yeah and we'd be happy to help
53:25
you out. Love it.
53:27
Actually, one more question just came in from a Lynch How much
53:30
does it cost to host? Every every machine has a
53:34
different price. It depends on how much power
53:37
that particular machine consumes.
53:40
But we have it all broken down on the website.
53:43
So you know, every single machine that you see on the
53:46
website has its own price for hosting and and it's all listed
53:50
there on the website. Awesome.
53:53
Awesome. All right.
53:53
Well, how about one last maybe words of wisdom for people out
53:58
there that are thinking about mining and maybe concerned going
54:01
into the halving and, you know, what would you guys say to
54:04
people? I would say that the
54:09
fundamentals of Bitcoin haven't changed.
54:14
You see the hash rate continuing to expand even with the halving
54:20
on the horizon. You see that people are still
54:23
bringing their machines online and the reason for that is
54:27
because the fundamentals of Bitcoin haven't changed.
54:30
It's always going to be a store of value.
54:32
It's always going to be anti inflationary and it's it's not
54:37
able to be manipulated. And so whether you're thinking
54:40
about getting into mining today or tomorrow, there's never a bad
54:44
time to get into it because at the end of the day you're
54:48
creating, you're protecting your wealth and you're you're
54:52
investing your your wealth into. Into a currency that that's
54:58
unable to be manipulated and that's unable.
55:01
It's not inflationary. Love it.
55:04
Love it. All right guys.
55:05
Well, actually for the audio listeners, where can they find
55:08
you guys? You can find us on on, on
55:13
Twitter or X and at Rebel Mining.
55:16
We're also on Instagram, Facebook and Telegram.
55:22
OK, Got to stay on Telegram. All right, guys.
55:24
Well, thank you so much for coming on.
55:26
I hope you help someone out there maybe get more bullish on
55:30
Bitcoin because they they got to know the Bitcoin miners ain't
55:33
going anywhere. And they they that's why we
55:35
opened it up with the with the hash rate, because what do the
55:38
Bitcoin miners know that Main Street doesn't know?
55:41
It's basically what you said at the end.
55:43
Bitcoin isn't going anywhere, guys.
55:45
So This is why Bitcoin miners are the most bullish anyways.
55:49
Guys, let's get to the only reason everyone is here.
55:52
The meme review. The daily meme review All right
56:04
boys and girls. Girls and boys, you already know
56:06
the deal. This is the meme review where
56:07
you tag me on Twitter at simply Bitcoin TV or or a big or.
56:12
This would be preferable. Drop them in our telegram group.
56:15
T dot me slash simply Bitcoin TV.
56:18
You guys are just stealing memes and dropping up in there which
56:20
which I love. But I want to give people their
56:22
credit. I want to give them their their
56:24
due diligence. So give me the Twitter anyways.
56:28
You already know the deal. Tweets of the bullets, memes,
56:30
the artillery. We are in an information war.
56:33
It's upon us individuals to spread that signal plant and
56:37
incept the ideas of freedom. And of course make some funny.
56:41
So our friends had stay in the game and they remember why we do
56:44
what we do. OK, 1st meme is by Luke Broyles
56:47
and he goes, what Bitcoin stage are you at?
56:50
And we have a bunch of different pictures here of Matthew
56:53
McConaughey and the first one Bitcoin goes up and it's that
56:56
Lincoln commercial. Matthew McConaughey all smiley.
56:59
And then we have a picture of Matthew McConaughey at this True
57:02
Crimes I forget and he's smoking the cigarette and he goes begin
57:05
to understand that Bitcoin is a new paradigm, price pricing in
57:09
the old paradigm and that it's reflecting global deflationary
57:12
forces of marginal cost of production going to 0 everywhere
57:16
at once. Bitcoin is not going up.
57:18
Everything else is going down forever Okay.
57:21
And then and then the last picture is Matthew McConaughey
57:24
and I'm pretty sure this is also true crimes and he looks super
57:27
depleted and crying in his car he goes, Bitcoin goes up.
57:30
What stage of Bitcoin are you at Okay.
57:33
This next one is by King Swish and it's at Swish 5 Wisher on
57:39
Twitter and there's using this beta male compiler with MPC.
57:44
But that's that's that's not the meme I wanted to touch on.
57:47
I'm touching on a classic here and it goes.
57:50
There are only two kinds of people now, those who support
57:54
the system, the Agent Smiths, the the Sheep, and those who
57:57
don't. The the Neos, the Trinities, the
58:00
Morpheuses, the B for Vendetta warriors out there, the freedom
58:05
minded people and the sheep. I think I think we're seeing in
58:08
real time that this is what's going on.
58:10
Those that follow the narrative and those that have broken free
58:13
from the programming and the next meme is by Maxi's Club.
58:16
This is a classic play on the once you step off the the the
58:22
stage, the ramp, you opt out of slavery.
58:25
You choose Bitcoin and the Fiat cantillionaires, the Fiat
58:29
politicians. They are being upheld by your
58:32
belief in the fact that they have legitimacy.
58:36
Opt out of the Fiat dollar. Join bitcoiners.
58:39
Join the revolution. Saving Bitcoin.
58:41
Download Bitcoin wallets. This is the way.
58:43
This next one is by Psychopath Maxi on Twitter.
58:46
And it goes. Just realize and we have John
58:48
Cena here and he's crying. Oh, actually it's Cooligan
58:51
Fields. Shout out to my cousin Cooligan
58:53
Fields John Cena here. Perplex and he goes, me
58:57
realizing I don't have enough Bitcoin.
59:00
I know you guys are being bearish out there but you don't
59:03
have enough Bitcoin and part of that is you are not bullish
59:06
enough on Bitcoin. And even though when I say that
59:09
maybe I'm not bullish enough on our holdings because they will
59:12
go up but we're playing hungry Hippo accumulate is the name of
59:16
the game. OK, next one is by Oh my God,
59:19
Bruce. And it was quote tweeting that
59:21
last one. And we have the classic
59:22
Squidward opening his eyes meme here and Squidward to sleep here
59:26
and it goes. Not having enough Bitcoin.
59:28
And then he opens up in panic knowing you'll never be able to
59:31
own a whole Bitcoin. Absolute devastation.
59:34
The fear, the FOMO is kicking in.
59:37
You should be stacking. You probably didn't stack as
59:39
hard as you thought you did, this bear market, so continue to
59:43
stack. OK, there's next 1.
59:45
So it's another multifaceted one.
59:47
We have a quote tweet here by our boy Iowan Robinstein on
59:51
Twitter. And the quote tweet is Fed's
59:54
unrealized losses on the balance sheet just broke 1.3 trillion
59:58
for the first time ever. Truly unprecedented.
1:00:01
The amortized cost is 20.4% more than the mark to market price of
1:00:06
the balance sheet. Recall that selling a devalued
1:00:09
security reduces the impact on the money supply and we have
1:00:12
here. Jane Jerome Powell And there's
1:00:16
like a song to it, but I'm not sure if I can get away with this
1:00:19
on Twitter. Copyrights.
1:00:20
But it's the everything is fine meme, you know, the dog in the
1:00:23
burning house and it's Jay Powell drinking some coffee.
1:00:25
Everything is fine, you know, just just trust the suits.
1:00:27
Just trust the people on the television that telling you that
1:00:30
inflation is OK, that it's it's going down.
1:00:32
You know that the economy is going well, that everything is
1:00:35
fine. Just don't look behind the veil.
1:00:37
And this last one, this Wall Street silver.
1:00:41
Technically it might not be a Bitcoin meme but considering the
1:00:45
Argentina Malay news he just has some laughing emojis here and
1:00:49
here we got Napoleon Dynamite. And it goes when you see another
1:00:51
country get a base libertarian president and Napoleon Dynamite
1:00:55
just lucky man. So lucky.
1:00:57
I I wish we had a base libertarian president here, but
1:01:00
you know, we're we're just stuck here in the old paradigms of
1:01:03
right versus left and Sleepy Joe and other kleptocratic,
1:01:09
technocratic dystopian leaders. Oh my goodness.
1:01:13
Anyways, guys, drop your meme review score in the chat as we
1:01:16
cover ours live. And actually, I'm going to give
1:01:20
you guys have been seeing this for the last couple.
1:01:22
I'm going to give it this the end. the Fed Now hat that I am
1:01:25
wearing shouts out to the Bitcoin Magazine crew for
1:01:28
dropping some heat. Anyways, Ed, what's your meme
1:01:32
score? Give those memes a thumbs up for
1:01:36
for Argentina and this simply Bitcoin merch.
1:01:40
Hey, there we go. There we go.
1:01:42
All right, Tad, what about you? A little thumbs up for Argentina
1:01:47
and simply Bitcoin too. Let's go.
1:01:49
Appreciate it. Appreciate it.
1:01:51
All right guys, drop your meme review score in the chat.
1:01:54
But of course, get yourself some merch, Ed Put put it up again.
1:01:58
Get yourself some merch. Help support the show.
1:02:02
Help us stay as independent as possible.
1:02:03
It truly means a lot to us. We are doing our best to give
1:02:08

We have the bright orange hoodie that you guys see me wear all
1:02:30
the time, But we also have some cool T-shirts, and we're going
1:02:34
to get you guys some more merch. All right, guys, let's get into
1:02:37
some of these meme review scores.
1:02:39
Before I do that, actually let me scroll up.
1:02:41
Make sure I get to the top one. All right, Here we go.
1:02:46
Wait, can I even read this one? Let me see Opti's digital ID,
1:02:50
Mr. Opti Fields. Ken Tilly and her boyfriend's
1:02:52

1:03:05
All right, all right. Trolling me at the end.
1:03:07
You got it. Elaine Lowell score.
1:03:10
We are on the brink of a Bitcoin revolution.
1:03:13
Quoted MI Toshi OK, next one, Phil.
1:03:16
CI Give these memes a showdown between Elon and Soros for the
1:03:19
future of free speech. Would love for that to actually
1:03:22
happen. We'll see if that's actually the
1:03:24
case. Next one is Bitcoin for
1:03:26
Canadians. I give those memes Napoleon
1:03:28
Dynamite doing his Bitcoin dance with Pedro and BTC pumps again.
1:03:32
Let's go. OK, Keepy boy.

president. OK, All right, awesome, guys.

Well, let's see. Let me see.

1:03:53
getting mad because I don't read them every day and they're not
1:03:58
here. So let's see.
1:04:00
Did another one pop in? No.
1:04:02
All right, we did it. We didn't run out of meme review
1:04:05
scores. It's the buzzer.
1:04:09
It's the buzzer. All right, guys.
1:04:11
Well, thank you so much for coming on, guys.

We love you. Like support, share, comment,
1:05:20
comment in the chat, You know, spread Bitcoin signal.
1:05:23
It's all about waking up people. As you can tell, the masses are
1:05:26
still asleep. Maybe the masses will never
1:05:28
become bitcoiners, who knows. But I am convinced that they are
1:05:31
going to be forced to save in Bitcoin moving forward and the
1:05:35
FOMO is going to kick in and we will have simply Bitcoin here
1:05:38
waiting for everyone that wants to learn about Bitcoin.
1:05:42
So in the meantime, get outside, get some exercise in, eat some
1:05:47
good food, hang out with your loved ones, spread Bitcoin,
1:05:50
signal all Bitcoin signal and we will be back tomorrow.
1:05:52
I think we'll cover that finance news for you guys tomorrow.
1:05:55
Anyways, peace out guys. Spend another great day.
