Transcript
- 0:002026 was supposed to be the year for the Bitcoin breakout but
- 0:03instead after hitting an all time high of 126 K, Bitcoin has
- 0:07crashed back to 63 K and everyone I know is asking 2
- 0:10questions. Is Bitcoin's price being
- 0:12manipulated and is it over? OK.
- 0:14So what's holding down the price?
- 0:17I think what holds down the price of the asset is.
- 0:20Today I'm going to walk you through why I think Bitcoin's
- 0:22price has been suppressed. We're going to connect the dots
- 0:24between what this Bitcoin billionaire is saying and AI
- 0:27disrupting markets, Wall Street manipulation, and why they are
- 0:30afraid of Bitcoin. And we're going to take you
- 0:32behind the scenes of the shadow banking industry rehypothecating
- 0:35Bitcoin, which is artificially suppressing the price.
- 0:38Stick around and I'll show you why this short term price
- 0:40suppression creates an opportunity for you to 10X20X or
- 0:4430X your money. Don't fall for the trap.
- 0:46This is the signal from the noise.
- 0:48This is Dante Coco Bitcoin. Simply, let's go.
- 0:55Yeah, it looks too good to be true.
- 0:56I don't trust it. And then you're going to have to
- 0:58explain why it's trustworthy. And then they're going to
- 1:01disagree with you, and they're going to keep scoring on you.
- 1:03And then you're going to have to keep coming back because that's
- 1:06just the way the world is. And 30 years after this podcast,
- 1:11everybody will come like, Oh, yeah, Digital money, of course.
- 1:14Of course we want that. Do you like electricity?
- 1:18Yeah. Do you like cars?
- 1:19Yeah. Do you like fire?
- 1:21Yeah. Do you like antibiotics?
- 1:22Sure you do. Right.
- 1:24Do you like television and radio?
- 1:25Yeah. How about airplanes?
- 1:27Sure. Was there a time when all of
- 1:30these things were in disrepute and created incredible fear,
- 1:34uncertainty and doubt? Every one of them.
- 1:37This is exactly my explanation to people about Bitcoin right
- 1:40now. They don't understand that every
- 1:41new innovation goes through these cycles, these values of
- 1:44pain. This is the evolution.
- 1:46Disruption always creates dislocation and this creates
- 1:49investment opportunities and people think this is just
- 1:52happening with Bitcoin in the traditional financial system
- 1:54right now. It's not.
- 1:56It's way bigger than that. There was absolute chaos, blood
- 1:59in mayhem in the streets of markets yesterday.
- 2:01Trillions of market cap were wiped out.
- 2:03From a sub stack article from a research firm called Citrini.
- 2:06Every hedge fund guy is yelling at their interns like who the
- 2:09hell is Citrini? Their author laid out a story as
- 2:12to why AI disrupts everything by 2028, and the share price of
- 2:16every company or category that was mentioned in the article
- 2:19crashed immediately. Claude created a security
- 2:21vulnerability tool yesterday, and security software stocks
- 2:25were absolutely destroyed. They also released a tool to
- 2:28help streamline cobalt coding, to which every developer who's
- 2:31ever worked in our banking firm said Hallelujah out loud.
- 2:34But IBM stock fell 10% in minutes.
- 2:38You have to understand that all of these security stocks are not
- 2:41going to go to 0. You have to discern what's what,
- 2:43which brings us back to Bitcoin. One of the things that's clear
- 2:46right now is the existing system is fighting, and there's a lot
- 2:48of fear, uncertainty and doubt around Bitcoin.
- 2:51You have to understand that Wall Street is paying firms to come
- 2:54up with legal opinions to help people come up with a
- 2:56compromise. Here's a clip from a senior
- 2:59White House official that's showing that Wall Street is
- 3:01doing everything that they can to suppress innovation in
- 3:05financial markets. My job is to get a bill to the
- 3:07president's desk. Now, that is not a bill at any
- 3:09cost, but understanding that the the democratic process works in
- 3:14a way that there's going to have to be compromises and on all
- 3:16issues, individuals are going to have to give.
- 3:19And depending on their perspective, it might not be
- 3:21perfect, but let's not let perfect be the enemy of the good
- 3:25here. There's a lot of great aspects
- 3:28to this bill totally separate and apart from from the stable
- 3:31point issue here. And you know, if we can solve
- 3:34this issue in a way that narrowly addresses the issue
- 3:37that the the banks have raised, but also permits stable points
- 3:40to be the amazing innovation that they are.
- 3:43And, and we want to encourage their growth not only
- 3:46domestically, but international and, and let's, you know, let's
- 3:50keep the, the overall picture in mind here and let's see if we
- 3:55can find something that, that both sides can live with here.
- 3:58He says that people are going to have to come to the table and
- 4:00people are going to have to compromise.
- 4:02What does he mean and who does he mean?
- 4:04Well, he means that Wall Street banks are going to have their
- 4:06profit center and their monopoly destroyed by stable coins.
- 4:10The money flows and the lack of transparency that once dominated
- 4:13financial markets in Wall Street and gave the banks an unfair
- 4:16advantage are now going to be brought to the light with stable
- 4:18coins, removing the power from corporations and giving them to
- 4:21individuals. And so that's why crypto firms
- 4:23are going to have to come to the table and find the common good
- 4:26for everybody. Reading between the lines, it's
- 4:28just Wall Street trying to keep the privileges that other firms
- 4:30and individuals don't have. Market makers like Jane St. have
- 4:34been manipulating the market for years and it's evident that
- 4:36they've been trying to destroy crypto from behind the scenes.
- 4:39New information is coming out that they actually were
- 4:41manipulating Terraform or the Luna Ponzi scheme from behind
- 4:45the scenes to illegally profit from insider trading.
- 4:48But this leads me to think that this wasn't just happening in
- 4:50Luna and that this could still be happening in Bitcoin.
- 4:53In the interview of the year between Natalie Brunel and
- 4:56Michael Saylor, which I highly encourage you to watch the full
- 4:58thing from beginning to end. Well, Michael Saylor highlights
- 5:01exactly what happened behind the scenes in these unregulated
- 5:04markets. They re hypothecate your Bitcoin
- 5:07because there aren't normal channels for people to borrow
- 5:09against their Bitcoin bags. Listen to the shocking news.
- 5:12You go to a crypto exchange or an OTC exchange and they'll
- 5:17often times give you a loan at 4% or 3% or 5% or 2%.
- 5:23I've had people offer me Bitcoin back credit at 1% or 0%.
- 5:32What's the catch, Natalie? Right, that's the question.
- 5:35There's always the catch is they want me to transfer the Bitcoin
- 5:39to them so they can re hypothecate it.
- 5:42So if you have $10 million, you either cannot get a loan from a
- 5:46legitimate bank or you can get a small loan at a 10% interest
- 5:52rate, or you can get a three or 4% loan, but then it gets re
- 5:57hypothecated. So your $10 million of Bitcoin
- 6:00gets sold once, gets sold twice, gets sold three times.
- 6:05You might have, you might actually create 30 or $40
- 6:08million worth of selling because the Bitcoin that you posted is
- 6:14that you transferred to the shadow bank or the crypto
- 6:17exchange rehypothecated it three times.
- 6:21OK, So what's holding down the price?
- 6:24I think what holds down the price of the asset is the lack
- 6:27of a fully formed non re hypothecating credit system,
- 6:34right? And there's a limit to how much
- 6:37you can re hypothecate certain other assets, right?
- 6:41When you post your home as collateral for a mortgage, the
- 6:45bank doesn't turn around and sell the house on your street 10
- 6:49times. If they did, the price of houses
- 6:52on your street would be lower, right?
- 6:55So I I think that the lack of a fully formed banking system
- 6:59holds the price back. The existence of rehypothecation
- 7:04and the crypto economy damps the Vol.
- 7:08It works to both sides right? When people want to get short,
- 7:11they might get short 50X leverage.
- 7:15When they want to get long, they make it long, 50X leverage.
- 7:20So right now we're in that that bear market where you've got the
- 7:25rehypothecation holding back the price and I think at some point
- 7:30it reverses itself. We'll just have to wait.
- 7:34After we think our sponsors, Michael Saylor goes deeper into
- 7:37the shadow banking system and why the major bag holders have
- 7:40nowhere to go to profit from their Bitcoin.
- 7:42Stick around. One of the things that we do is
- 7:43we like to bring you the best partners, the best vendors and
- 7:46the best services in the world to help you on your Bitcoin
- 7:48journey. And there's no better place than
- 7:51letting the leader in Bitcoin back loans.
- 7:53They allow you to borrow against your Bitcoin without selling
- 7:55your Bitcoin. They're bringing institutional
- 7:57grade products to the markets that Michael Saylor was just
- 8:00talking about in this previous clip so that you can have a
- 8:02reputable place where you can borrow from your Bitcoin without
- 8:05selling. You can borrow up to 50% loan to
- 8:07value from your Bitcoin with no credit checks and you can do so
- 8:11in just minutes. Fiat gets in your account in
- 8:13less than six hours and rate started just 12.4%.
- 8:16It's the fastest and most institutional grade product on
- 8:19the market. Get started by going to learn
- 8:21dot lead and dot AO slash. Simply, one of the ways you can
- 8:24avoid rehypothecation is by becoming your own bank where you
- 8:27can actually run your own node, lend your Bitcoin out on your
- 8:31own terms through a lightning channel and actually receive
- 8:33some dividends and rewards from that.
- 8:35Well, getting started on that journey just starts with you
- 8:37running your own node privately, safely, securely.
- 8:40You can do that by getting a coach from the Bitcoin way.
- 8:43They'll show you how to set up your node, how to manage
- 8:45lightning channels and swaps and do all of these sorts of things.
- 8:48But the first step is just getting your private keys into a
- 8:51place that you own that are secure.

- 8:55the bitcoinway.com/simply Bitcoin.
- 8:57So one of the big reasons as to why we are where we are is that
- 9:01the markets themselves don't allow for bag holders in the
- 9:04past to not liquidity in their Bitcoin.
- 9:07If you have large pools of Bitcoin, well, you have to go to
- 9:11unregulated or shadow banking markets, which don't give you
- 9:14the amount of access and liquidity that you actually
- 9:17want. And they do so at rates that are
- 9:18expensive. And this is creating dislocation
- 9:21in the markets. This is allowing people who
- 9:23don't want to sell their Bitcoin, who still believe in
- 9:25the long term thesis of their Bitcoin, to not access capital
- 9:28from their Bitcoin. This is what wealthy people have
- 9:30done from the beginning of time. They never sell their assets.
- 9:33They put them in trust, and they borrow against.
- 9:36Elon Musk actually doesn't have a lot of money or physical cash
- 9:39in his bank accounts. He has Tesla stock.
- 9:42He has SpaceX stock. He has stock in private
- 9:44companies and corporations that he's invested in, and he borrows
- 9:47against it. This is the way that the world
- 9:49works, whether we like it or not.
- 9:50And the same thing is happening right now in Bitcoin, except
- 9:53there's no access to liquidity from reputable sources.
- 9:55And This is why Michael Saylor talks about the shadow banking
- 9:58system. What you have at the top of the
- 10:01market is $2 trillion worth of Bitcoin, probably 1.8 trillion
- 10:06held by retail investors or offshore investors, and they
- 10:11cannot access the traditional banking system.
- 10:14They're in the shadow banking system.
- 10:16So if you had $1.8 trillion or more than a trillion dollars
- 10:21worth of capital and no one would give you a loan on it,
- 10:26then how do you monetize it? Right.
- 10:30If I posted $10 million of Apple stock with JP Morgan or Morgan
- 10:36Stanley, I could take a $5,000,000 loan at SOFR plus 50
- 10:41basis points and I could spend it.
- 10:43But but you can't even post $10 million worth of Bitcoin with JP
- 10:47Morgan and Morgan Stanley right now.
- 10:50Therefore, you can't take a loan.
- 10:52Therefore, you have to go to a shadow banking system.
- 10:56You have to go offshore. So how would you actually
- 10:59monetize it? You either have to sell it,
- 11:01right? The Safeway is to sell it, but
- 11:03that dams the upside. What else can you do?
- 11:06You can, by the way, you can get loans, a very small amount of
- 11:11loans from a few crypto exchanges where they don't re
- 11:13hypothecate your Bitcoin. But but the sum of that capital
- 11:18is a few billion dollars probably.
- 11:21So maybe there's a few billion dollars of Bitcoin credit that
- 11:24you can tap at SOFR plus 500 basis points or SOFR plus 400
- 11:30basis points. OK, this not SOFR plus 40, SOFR
- 11:35plus 400. So it's 10 times as expensive to
- 11:39actually draw down capital. And how much capital?
- 11:44One one thousandth of the amount of capital available for
- 11:48securities portfolios. So there's a, there's 1% or less
- 11:54of the capital available through the conventional banking system.
- 11:58It's expensive, OK. And right now, this disruption
- 12:02is happening in the markets. Markets are able to be
- 12:05artificially suppressed, and prices are able to be
- 12:07artificially suppressed because there aren't means to regulated
- 12:11markets where normal things like this can allow trillions of
- 12:13capital to flow into Bitcoin like they do in other capital
- 12:16markets. But this is your opportunity.
- 12:18Michael Saylor talks about what the world's going to be like for
- 12:20people like him and Natalie Brunel and people who watch this
- 12:23show in 30 years, how you're going to be able to 10X20X and
- 12:2630 extra money because every new innovation goes to the valley of
- 12:30despair. The question is, are you willing
- 12:32to stomach that? What's your time horizon?
- 12:35And so that's why this short term price oppression doesn't
- 12:37matter. We're at 63 K, sure, but that
- 12:40pales into comparison as to what we will be in 1020 and 30 years.
- 12:44Bitcoin will be synonymous with fire, electricity and of course
- 12:48digital money as we move into a digital future.
- 12:51In a digital world, the future is obvious.
- 12:54We could have seen it in hindsight.
- 12:55The question is, are your eyes open to it?
- 12:58You had enough to know that Amazon was unstoppable A decade
- 13:01before the world agreed. You had enough insight to know
- 13:04that Apple was unstoppable seven years before.
- 13:09Probably 10 years, actually. In 2911, years before the world
- 13:13agreed, you knew it was unstoppable.
- 13:16You have enough information to know that Bitcoin is unstoppable
- 13:19right now. The world's going to eventually
- 13:23come to a consensus, and it'll be the Warren Buffett's and the
- 13:28Carl icons of the world that will be what creates that
- 13:32consensus. They won't be first, they'll be
- 13:36last. They won't make a huge amount of
- 13:40money. They'll double or triple their
- 13:41money, right? And they will enter and the PD
- 13:45goes from 10 to 30. They triple their money in a in
- 13:49a 12 month time period. And if you're if you're able to
- 13:54think for yourself and if you're able to weather volatility, you
- 13:59can 10X20X30X on your investment.
- 14:03But there really is no example of a successful technology
- 14:07investment where you didn't have to weather the 45% drawdown and
- 14:12go through that valley of despair, right?
- 14:16Ours is currently taking 137 days so far.
- 14:20But, you know, it might take two years, it might take three
- 14:22years, it might take four years. If it took seven years,
- 14:25congratulations. It's just like Apple Computer,
- 14:28the biggest success story of the.
- 14:30Decade and if your eyes are open to it then you should consider
- 14:33multiple ways to continue acquiring digital Capital One
- 14:36would be buying through spot one would be working for Bitcoin and
- 14:40earning Bitcoin through services and hard work.
- 14:42The other way is going to be to give your capital to a firm like
- 14:45SAS mining. They're going to lock in the
- 14:47cheapest rates and they're going to manage all of it for you.
- 14:49But what's going to happen is SAS are going to flow directly
- 14:51to your wallet from your mining rig that they manage and they
- 14:54host simple, easy way to stack sats use the QR code to get
- 14:58started with SAS mining today and start earning your way into
- 15:01the digital money future that we're moving into So ten 20-30
- 15:04years from now you're going to be one of the people that
- 15:06Michael Saylor talked about who's not working.
- 15:09These are my thoughts on what's happening in markets right now.
- 15:11Why AI is showing us that disruption and dislocation
- 15:15happens in all markets and not just Bitcoin.
- 15:17Why non traditional financial markets are what's keeping
- 15:20Bitcoin's price suppressed. And what Wall Street is actually
- 15:22saying is that they're more afraid of Bitcoin than they're
- 15:25actually admitting behind closed doors.
- 15:27They're trying to come to settlements.
- 15:28They're afraid. This is Dante Coca Bitcoin
- 15:31Simply happy stacking.
