Transcript
- 0:07Welcome back everyone. That's right, we're back like a
- 0:10week off. We're simply Bitcoin.
- 0:12We break down the news. The daily fail mean review.
- 0:15Software releases Hardware releases and the plebiscites
- 0:20joining us today. We've got fellow Bitcoin, ER,
- 0:25Sam Callaghan. He is a Bitcoin Analyst at Swan,
- 0:29what's up? Sam.
- 0:31What's up guys? Thanks for having me on happy to
- 0:33be here. Very cool, very cool.
- 0:35Alright, we are diving into the numbers.
- 0:37That's right, Sam is joining us for the rabbit hole.
- 0:39Let's do it. Brought to you by noddle.
- 0:42They make some of the best Bitcoin notes like the famous
- 0:46not old Dojo. If you don't run your own node
- 0:49you're using someone else's note.
- 0:51Reclaim ownership of your money, run Bitcoin, or recor, run,
- 0:56lightning Network. It's easy to use its privacy
- 0:59Focus Move third parties from the equation completely.
- 1:03Get yourself, a novel node today.
- 1:05At the time of this recording, the block, itís 730, 1601, the
- 1:09Bitcoin price thirty nine thousand six hundred fifty chain
- 1:12rewrite days, 748. Total public lightning capacity.
- 1:173610 dot 36, Moscow, time, 25 17 blocks to the having 108,000 399
- 1:26and the samurai whirlpool Spent capacity, Samurai Whirlpool is a
- 1:32coin or collaborative spend. It is not a mixing service and
- 1:37the unspent capacity for that is 4470, 893.
- 1:44The numbers Niko? It's been a long time.
- 1:45My friend, it has been a long time, right?
- 1:49I keep saying that Samurai capacity because we don't know
- 1:52how long we're going to say it for.
- 1:54But anyways, the big news for today kind of bombshell You were
- 2:00listening to norming, used it should come as a surprise to
- 2:03you. If you've been listening to
- 2:04bitcoiners it should not have come as a surprise to you, why?
- 2:08Because of the record amount of money printing, let me tell you
- 2:11the signal, right? Is that they'll blame everything
- 2:15but the money printing, it's Putin's fault.
- 2:17It's the supply Chains. It's the virus that we can't
- 2:20speak of on YouTube. It's anything, but the record
- 2:25amount of money printing. Anyways, let's get to the
- 2:27article. Shall we US inflation quickens.
- 2:2928.5 percent ratcheting up pressure on the fat.
- 2:34Us consumer Prices rose in March by the most sensitive late,
- 2:371981, underscoring, the painful painfully High Cost of Living
- 2:42reinforcing pressure on the Federal Reserve to raise
- 2:44interest rates even more aggressively, the Consumer Price
- 2:47Index, increase 8.5 percent from a year earlier following, a 7.9
- 2:51percent annual game. February, Labor Department data,
- 2:54showed Tuesday, the widely followed inflation gaze, roast
- 2:581.2 percent from a month. Earlier this biggest gain since
- 3:012005. Now, let me put it to you this
- 3:03way. The CPI is rigged, okay, it's
- 3:07bullshit. We all know it's much higher
- 3:09than that, right? But it's so bad that it's still
- 3:128.5%. This is a pretty good
- 3:16visualization of where we are in this moment in time, it looks
- 3:19like we're still on the come-up, I might add last time this
- 3:23happened. Like the article said was back
- 3:25in the 19th and early 1980s. This hasn't happened didn't
- 3:29happen. In my lifetime, Phil.
- 3:31I think you were a baby Sam, looks about my age.
- 3:35So anyways, moving on. So like I said, the eighth, you
- 3:39know, the a the the fucking 8.5 CPI really doesn't account for
- 3:43food. It doesn't count for energy and
- 3:46just take a look at this screenshot of MSNBC and
- 3:50afternoon. Gasoline, 8 48 percent used
- 3:53cars, 35% 0 tells 25% airfares. 23% serial baked goods night,
- 4:004%, major appliances, 12.4% meat poultry fish eggs, 13.7
- 4:05Furniture bedding 15.8. So, again, people spend the most
- 4:11on energy and food, right? Energy or gasoline, right?
- 4:16You have to power your car to get to places, get to work, 48
- 4:18percent, almost 50% and food meat, poultry fish eggs, 13% so
- 4:25it's a lot higher than 8.5% on the majority of things that you
- 4:28spend money on and here. The thing here's the fucking gas
- 4:31lighting okay? And the thing is we were
- 4:33playing. If you've been subscribed to
- 4:35this channel for a while we've been playing you these videos
- 4:38for a long time and we would make fun of them and this person
- 4:41mahse was kind enough to do a compilation.
- 4:43I'm not going to play you. The whole thing.
- 4:45I'm going to just play you. 10 seconds of politicians.
- 4:48This is Janet Yellen the u.s. secretary of the US Treasury
- 4:51secretary. And then the you know, president
- 4:53of the United States. Joe Biden.
- 4:55Literally telling you that there was going to be no inflation,
- 4:58let's check it out. I really doubt that we're going
- 5:02to see an inflationary cycle, by the way, talk of inflation.
- 5:08The overwhelming consensus is going to pop up a little bit and
- 5:11then go back down, I don't know wrong.
- 5:15How did we know this? Because they're printing record
- 5:18amount of money, so it's clear that they're just totally
- 5:20gaslighting you, by the way, shout out to maze more for
- 5:23making this compilation. Moving on, of course, you know,
- 5:26they're blaming Putin nowadays. It was a supply chain but now
- 5:29it's Putin and Zero Hedge made a very awesome visualization of
- 5:34again, put the politics aside, that's not important to us, but
- 5:37this is Biden, taking office. Clearly the inflation has been
- 5:41on the rise way before Putin, right?
- 5:43It's just total gas lighting. And what what does this have to
- 5:47do with Bitcoin? Why is this happening?
- 5:49This is a quote by Scioscia Nakamoto, it really summarizes
- 5:53it perfectly. The root problem with
- 5:55conventional currency is all the trust that requires to make it
- 5:58work. The central Must be trusted not
- 6:01to debase the currency, but the history of Fiat currencies is
- 6:06full of breaches of that Trust Banks must be trusted to hold
- 6:09our money transferred editor electronically, but they'll end
- 6:12it and, and waves of credit bubbles with barely a fraction
- 6:15in reserve, here's the thing, he wrote that when fractional
- 6:19Reserve banking was a thing since really Donald Trump, 2019
- 6:222020 now, it's zero percent fraction, there's no Reserve
- 6:26anymore, we have to trust them with our privacy.
- 6:29See, trust them to not, let her identity.
- 6:31Identity, thieves drain our account.
- 6:33So I think that summarizes it perfectly the problem with Fiat
- 6:38money, and really how Bitcoin fixes this.
- 6:41Do you really blame these politicians to just keep
- 6:44printing money to make their voters happy to buy votes?
- 6:46Essentially, do you really blame them for, you know, funding,
- 6:50whatever type of social program is going to get them, you know,
- 6:53votes. Do you really blame them for,
- 6:55you know, wanting to increase the government budget to
- 6:58increase the To to pay for themselves.
- 7:01Do you really blame them for doing that right?
- 7:03It's a hell of an incentive Bitcoin fixes that because it
- 7:06takes the monetary policy out of the hands of human beings.
- 7:10If you want to make more Bitcoin, you have to get in line
- 7:13by a minor pay for electricity and mine it like everybody else.
- 7:18Right? It fixes the money and I think
- 7:21that this is going to keep happening, bro.
- 7:23It just the incentive is too big.
- 7:25So yeah, man, the, I think that this inflation thing is going to
- 7:28continue to grow. They, the fed the And have any
- 7:30other tricks to kind of mess with this.
- 7:32Yeah, they might raise rates but unlike the 70s, when the last
- 7:35time this happened, Volker had a lot more head room right now.
- 7:40We don't have that much, right? So I don't know how this is
- 7:43going to end if you listen to Max Keiser you know can't stop a
- 7:47Ponzi scheme, I have no idea. The reason I don't give a shit
- 7:51it's because I have Bitcoin something that can't be debased.
- 7:54Anyways Sam, what are your thoughts on this fucking clown
- 7:57World? Shit.
- 7:59I mean many summed, it up pretty well but it's the highest in
- 8:03like 40 plus years. Like you said got that to GDP
- 8:07super high so they can't raise rates and honestly the
- 8:11gaslighting it just pisses me off.
- 8:12It just pisses me off because back in the day they had no
- 8:16accountability and now the internet like that video, that
- 8:19that person made and the ease of communication, we can kind of
- 8:22call them out more easily on their bullshit.
- 8:26Like you said, they just have different excuses along the way.
- 8:29The first said it was transitory and now they just remove that
- 8:33word from their lexicon and now they just make up excuse after
- 8:37excuse after excuse except the 40% of the empty money supply
- 8:42that they print it, right? And this will continue.
- 8:46I don't really see things coming down that much.
- 8:50I've been surprised that the rate of this inflation rise and
- 8:53I think a lot of other analysts have to it's spiked even faster
- 8:56than I thought. And that's kind of worrisome
- 8:59just from Like just a societal perspective in terms of the food
- 9:04prices that are spiking across the world.
- 9:07And so I kind of hope that it reduces a little bit just to
- 9:10give a little bit of ease because I don't know how long
- 9:12this can go on before the bottom 50 percentile.
- 9:16I mean, just can't even afford basic necessities.
- 9:19I mean it's good to that point and then the CPI is just
- 9:22completely crap. Because it mean, if you look at
- 9:25even just rent, like rent is completely understated in the
- 9:28CPI, For anybody, that's not like wealthy.
- 9:32Rent makes up a big portion of their monthly expenses.
- 9:35I mean that's just that's just makes common sense, right?
- 9:38And rent.com recently said that at one bedroom was up about
- 9:42twenty four percent year over year and the CPI just said, it's
- 9:46up 5%, right? The shelter components up by
- 9:48percent. So there's just huge disconnect.
- 9:50If you use like the shadow stats, you know, methodology
- 9:55from the 80s, it's upwards of 17 percent.
- 9:59I think it's in the 20% like 20% right now and when you look at
- 10:05food prices spiking it's concerning man it's concerning
- 10:08and then you just have gaslighting so part of me feels
- 10:12like they just they're just all talk.
- 10:14They don't actually want to fix the inflation because of the
- 10:16debt to GDP is so high it's like that Playbook that's in an IMF
- 10:21paper where it's the liquidation of sovereign debt, so when you
- 10:24let the inflation Run High, you know that kind of just melts the
- 10:27debt over time and they're trying.
- 10:29NG to do that while keeping everything together and there's
- 10:32they're all talk saying that they're going to, you know,
- 10:34fight inflation this way. They're even bringing a price
- 10:36controls right now which is just it's so dumb, it's bananas and
- 10:40we it's bananas. Yeah, don't know that price
- 10:42controls don't work but it again, it goes back to the
- 10:45incentives are not incentivized to stop money printing, which is
- 10:49what is actually going to stop. Stop inflation.
- 10:52But if they stop running printing, they're really Gonna
- 10:55Hurt the economy, right? Which means less votes for them.
- 10:59So they're kind of Stuck in this pickle right?
- 11:01Where it's exactly what you said Sam.
- 11:03They're trying to keep it together with the other without
- 11:06it falling apart but it's just causing clown world to do its
- 11:10thing. And Kaiser had this amazing
- 11:12quote, he's said the excuses are suffering from inflation itself
- 11:17from themselves, right? And I think that was spot-on
- 11:20anyways, but it's not. What are your thoughts on this?
- 11:23Yeah, I think you guys both really well.
- 11:25Covered it. I think the only thing I can add
- 11:27to this is I don't understand how The people who come up with
- 11:31this formula, okay. This this disingenuous formula
- 11:35to downplay what's really happening in inflation.
- 11:37I don't understand how these people reconcile doing this and
- 11:41putting that information out. You know, I understand at the
- 11:44end of the day, these people are, you know, they're
- 11:46rent-seeking, right? We we have no choice, right?
- 11:47We are incentivized, you know, pay our bills, you know, help,
- 11:52our families, all that good stuff.
- 11:53But at the end of the day, it's like, you know, that the numbers
- 11:56you're putting together or complete bullshit, like look at
- 11:58that MSNBC. Chart.
- 12:00None of those that like, that, there was one or two numbers
- 12:02that were close to that 8.5. Where does that number come from
- 12:06and, and just think about it, right?
- 12:07There's a whole group of quote-unquote educated
- 12:10credential eyes. People little patting each other
- 12:12on the shoulders, right? Shaking hands going.
- 12:14Yeah, this is, this is correct like and they know it's
- 12:18bullshit, they know, it's not correct.
- 12:20Anyways, it just I don't get how you reconcile that you gotta be
- 12:23a piece of shit. Somehow your anyways, dude,
- 12:25look, I think it goes down to the incentives, right?
- 12:29No one. Better than their incentives
- 12:31there. They're incentivized to keep
- 12:33printing money. They're not incentivized to stop
- 12:35printing money. The you know the result of that
- 12:38is you know the lower and middle classes that can afford to save
- 12:42and real estate and equities and Bitcoin really does fucking fix
- 12:46this which is why we cover this shit because it's clearly
- 12:49inferior money. Right Bitcoin.
- 12:51Everyone wins Fiat the government and the very very
- 12:54wealthy wins. Right?
- 12:56It's clearly a better system but anyways Phil it's time for the
- 12:59Daily fail brought to you by Ember app.
- 13:03Check them out. Amber dot app, low fees, Fair
- 13:07spreads smart Automation and you can also stack the Schiff.
- 13:13Anyways, the link is down below ammo.
- 13:16Smart way. Stuck sounds guys, as you know,
- 13:20we've been gone for a while and we still get tagged in, you
- 13:23know, a whole bunch of stuff. So, some of this might be from
- 13:26last week, but keep in mind I'm going to, you know, we're going
- 13:28to get through all of these. Fails.
- 13:30And we are going to start with. We are going to start with
- 13:34Mozilla Mozilla, obviously is more current, but we're also
- 13:37going to take a look at some shit quoting from last week.
- 13:39Let's dive into Alex, glad steans tweet first, here we go,
- 13:44Mozilla has decided to stop accepting Bitcoin donations.
- 13:47They think proof-of-work is bad, but they will develop and share
- 13:50a white list of proof of stake, shit coins, and begin accepting
- 13:55those in the next few months. Not going to make it of the most
- 13:59epic. Proportions.
- 14:01Alex, you are correct. What is he doing?
- 14:03He is retweeting an awful tweet by Mozilla, okay?
- 14:07And let's take a look at that tweet before we dive into the
- 14:12nonsense. Little article that we have
- 14:14about it. Thank you all for engaging in
- 14:16this important discussion about the impact of shit coins on the
- 14:19environment and for pushing us to think critically about our
- 14:21climate commitments. Today, we're announcing an
- 14:24update to our cryptocurrency donation policy.
- 14:29Okay. So let's take a look at this
- 14:35Mozilla published its climate commitments.
- 14:37And since cryptocurrencies environmental toll has become
- 14:41more apparent. Mmm, indeed.
- 14:46Mozilla will no longer accept, proof-of-work, cryptocurrencies,
- 14:48which are more energy-intensive, that's right.
- 14:52Using more energy bad, think of all the Innovations throughout
- 14:55history, using more energy. Those were all terrible.
- 14:58Fire was terrible. Electricity was Double all of
- 15:02this is terrible. Okay.
- 15:03Right now, you're just existing in terrible lives because of all
- 15:06these horrible Innovations, because of increased energy use,
- 15:09but it doesn't matter. Anyways, Mozilla will accept
- 15:12proof of stake shit coins which are less.
- 15:15Energy-intensive Mozilla will develop and share a list of
- 15:18cryptocurrencies, we accept by the end of Q2 2022.
- 15:22So let's take a look at some of these coins here that they're
- 15:25going to be willing to accept, right?
- 15:26Because these are proof of stake shit coins.
- 15:28And this is the wrecked leaderboard, right?
- 15:30These are that's where people got rug.
- 15:32Pulled like Ronin Network, like Polly Network, like Wormhole,
- 15:35right? All of this garbage.
- 15:37This is the kind of crap that they're going to be willing to
- 15:39accept. Now, I'm not saying these
- 15:40specific coins, but I'm just trying to give you an idea of
- 15:43the, the ilk of the quality of the donations that they're
- 15:46looking for. So you kind of got a wonder, why
- 15:49would you make such a stupid decision to go for something
- 15:52that really has no value, shouldn't be money and and
- 15:55really you know, has no use an existing in the free market
- 15:59should siphon it out, you know. Why would you do this?
- 16:02So, we went to go take a look maybe at the people running
- 16:06Mozilla. And again, you know, I'm gonna
- 16:09pull some strings together, who knows?
- 16:11Maybe it means something. Maybe it doesn't, but on the
- 16:13Mozilla Foundation, got this, I look through every single person
- 16:17and we've got an arena sing. Okay, so this person is actually
- 16:22part of the That's right.
- 16:34That's right. She was so anyways, let's let's
- 16:37go take a look one of the young global leaders with the ich the
- 16:42world economic Forum. There you go guys, you know,
- 16:46there's it's just interesting, right?
- 16:48So I've heard, I've heard the argument that all well, you
- 16:51know, Elizabeth Stark, right? Had nothing to do with the world
- 16:54economic forum, and she ended up there, Elizabeth Stark wasn't a
- 16:57young Global leader with the world.
- 17:00Economic I'm like, Justin Trudeau is okay.
- 17:04So yeah, these people are everywhere.
- 17:07So if you wonder why Mozilla has an e SG narrative.
- 17:11Take a look at their board of directors in their foundation
- 17:15and you'll understand. Okay?
- 17:17So before I move on to the next one, does anybody have any any
- 17:20comments about the the Mozilla stupidity?
- 17:24Dude, this has been debunked so many goddamn times.
- 17:29Write it clearly. Let me explain it one more time,
- 17:33very quickly. I want to pass it on to Sam.
- 17:35Without proof of work. Money is corruptible, proof of
- 17:37work. Is what keeps money in a, what
- 17:39keeps Bitcoin uncorruptible? Right.
- 17:42Proof of stake, is a continuation of the old system
- 17:46with a brand new name which is exactly why the world economic
- 17:50Forum supports things like etherium.
- 17:54My dad haven't been able to get proof of stake to work even
- 17:57though it's been a couple years, right?
- 18:00And they release, you know, attack ads on their Twitter,
- 18:03right? Attacking Bitcoins, you know,
- 18:05mining and proof of work. They even came out with
- 18:08something ludicrous saying that Bitcoin was going to consume all
- 18:10the world's energy by a certain date.
- 18:12That turned out to be completely wrong.
- 18:15They aren't really concerned about the truth.
- 18:18They're concerned about selling you a false narrative with the
- 18:21hope that enough NPC These buy into it that they can get a mob
- 18:26behind it, to, in their eyes, you know, get some type of
- 18:31regulatory pressure on bitcoin. And that's exactly what Chris
- 18:35Larson of, xrp, spent five million dollars to try to do so.
- 18:40But unfortunately for him, he spent five million dollars,
- 18:44stress testing, the honey badger to make the honey.
- 18:47Badger, inevitably stronger. Anyway, Sam, what are your
- 18:50thoughts on this? Yeah, that is it's the same.
- 18:55It's the Bitcoin for CSG. It's basically permeated the
- 18:58whole conference that topic and it's disingenuous because and in
- 19:04not factual like straight up, I think it shows a
- 19:07misunderstanding a Bitcoin and enter and energy.
- 19:12And then ESG is being used to control from these organizations
- 19:16these large powerful organizations, like the world
- 19:19economic forum, who Try to influence companies and what
- 19:23they do based on these things that they just create out of
- 19:27nowhere. Like we're going to do ESG now
- 19:29and there's no defined definitions of like what that
- 19:32actually means. And, you know, for me proof of
- 19:35stake is just the same thing. Like you said that we already
- 19:38have that can be controlled which is why they like it.
- 19:41And it's an attack on bitcoin its attack on proof of work.
- 19:45And for me like proof of steak is just trying to recreate like
- 19:49the perfect fairness of With the work.
- 19:52It's basically trying to make like artificial consensus
- 19:57mechanism that tries to recreate the fairness that is the energy
- 20:01of proof of work. And so it's just inferior from
- 20:03the get-go, it's a less secure consensus mechanism.
- 20:07And so, it's just all bullshit, to be honest with you. 100%,
- 20:11totally great. Phil Slade.
- 20:14Another one metaphor Mozilla metaphorically.
- 20:17Madam, we have myself. No violence, okay, no vitamins a
- 20:21Forkel slang anyways. Phil, what's the next one?
- 20:24All right, guys, so this is the, this is the one from last week
- 20:26that we got tagged in. So we're going to go back in
- 20:28history, a little bit before we get a little more current
- 20:31tomorrow. Let's dive into this here.
- 20:33I don't know if you guys remember, we covered the orb,
- 20:35right? The the world coin, people going
- 20:37around scanning people's eyeballs and and I think we even
- 20:41said that there'd be some type of a rug puller something like
- 20:43six months later on, even think it took six months.
- 20:45But anyways, let's dive into it. Here we go.
- 20:47This startup promised people free crypto if they say, And
- 20:51their eyeballs. Now people feel they've been
- 20:55scammed. All right, so just quickly
- 20:57before we continue on the article, let's just remember it.
- 21:00It was they had a second major Capital raised in roughly six
- 21:04months for World coin, which raised 25 million at a 1 billion
- 21:07dollar valuation in October. The okay?
- 21:10That was with a 16z coinbase ventures digital currency group
- 21:14were among the investors which also included Angel Investors
- 21:18Sam. Venkman freed who is the founder
- 21:21of FTX exchange, right? All these shit coin exchanges,
- 21:24they totally loved creating liquidity out of your
- 21:26hard-earned money. Mmm!
- 21:28They love that stuff. Okay, anyways, so just a little
- 21:31background there on the amount of money that they earn that the
- 21:35amount of money that they raised.
- 21:37And more importantly, you can see the shit coin houses that
- 21:40helped them out, right? A 16z and coinbase Ventures and
- 21:45quickly before we go into the article.
- 21:47I just want to remind people of some of the stuff that a 16z
- 21:50has. Funded cellco, which is tied to
- 21:53the world economic Forum definity, which is some bullshit
- 21:56layer, on top of etherium, compound, Finance?
- 22:00Right, the failed Facebook currency, right, the EM.
- 22:03Okay, make oh, look open sea, and everyone's favorite that?
- 22:09Never seems to work Solana. Okay, anyway, so you can see,
- 22:13this is a regular shit, coin house, and they absolutely love
- 22:17to fund everything, but Bitcoin. Anyways, let's continue on to
- 22:21what the Happened at World coin. So World coin promise to
- 22:24jumpstart the global crypto Revolution with an audacious
- 22:27plan to give out digital money to all seven point.
- 22:30Nine billion people on Earth to spread its crypto gospel across
- 22:34the planet World coin recruited a corpse of orb operators whose
- 22:38job it was to scan people's irises.
- 22:41That makes sense. This isn't a data harvesting
- 22:44scheme. We're giving away free money.
- 22:47Anyways, like, I feel like we're in Batman and this is the Joker.
- 22:50Okay, here we go. You know, where he was, given
- 22:52away all that free money and then everyone died in the
- 22:54street. Yeah, the 80s.
- 22:55Okay, so the currency has not yet been launched World coin is
- 23:00already wrestling with a host of problems.
- 23:02From managing angry, orb operators to concerns that the
- 23:05company is using its cryptocurrency as a way to amass
- 23:07millions of Biometrics and perfect.
- 23:10A new kind of authentication technology for the blockchain
- 23:14era users from around the world, especially in Africa and Asia
- 23:17have sent hundreds of outraged messages to orb, operators,
- 23:20demanding the money, They were promised world going CEO, Alex
- 23:25blend, he acknowledged that people are upset but said, the
- 23:27company is learning through its field testing.
- 23:30Okay? So, so what that means is
- 23:34everyone who's getting their eyes scanned and all those
- 23:36operators, who are quote unquote, operating the orbs you
- 23:39are the product, okay? That that's that's the field
- 23:42testing like there was never like that product.
- 23:45Should have never been out the door.
- 23:46This is like pre-alpha bullshit. Okay, and this is exactly what
- 23:50you get from these. Freaking unicorn makers.
- 23:53Anyways, World coin says that once it's systems are perfected.
- 23:56It will anonymize and delete users biometric data, thereby
- 24:00guaranteeing their privacy. Okay, so what happens before
- 24:04that time, ha ha ha, like just don't trust him.
- 24:08Trust him, do good and nobody's gonna steal your data while they
- 24:13have it and they're gonna delete it.
- 24:15So we haven't heard about third parties losing people's data
- 24:19anyways. Okay.
- 24:20So blame your strongly pushed On the suggestion that world comes
- 24:22purpose was to harvest the world's eyeballs in return for
- 24:25cryptocurrency, that may turn out to be worthless that notion.
- 24:29And this is I love this. Part of the answer that notion
- 24:32is just very wrong. I don't even know where to
- 24:35start. Like this is just very wrong.
- 24:37That right there is a very detailed response.
- 24:41He couldn't even explain why this was wrong, it's just wrong.
- 24:46Anyways, it's like I don't really give a shit.
- 24:48I'm harvesting your data, but I'll tell you that this is
- 24:50wrong. Anyway, It's okay, rather.
- 24:52He said this was the only way World coin could achieve its
- 24:56dream of introducing the world, the whole world to crypto while
- 25:01ensuring, no one gets more than their fair share.
- 25:04Nico. I know that you like that
- 25:06language. I know that you appreciate this,
- 25:09this hidden shitty call me fucking language.
- 25:12Okay, what is that crap? So, so what, what is that, dude?
- 25:18I think it's you know what they're hiding behind moral.
- 25:21You broke our Goa Goa, Goa, philco up, stop.
- 25:27What you're doing. Go up, go up.
- 25:30Look at that. Look at that.
- 25:32Look at that. Poor lady that fold old lady.
- 25:35She doesn't know what the fuck. She's looking at, not happy.
- 25:40And why is it an orb? Why can't I just be a simple
- 25:42camera? And this Gyros raised how much
- 25:4625 million dollars? A 1 billion dollar valuation and
- 25:5025 billion I think. In the set 25 million in the
- 25:53second round. Jesus.
- 25:55Yeah, yeah. Okay.
- 25:58So two of the operator said the system could be gamed by signing
- 26:02people up more than once a device that ostensibly exists to
- 26:06make sure sign ups aren't duplicate.
- 26:08I want you to think about that. They create a unique hash out of
- 26:11your iris, but yet you can duplicate people sign ups, So,
- 26:17none of that data is going anywhere.
- 26:19It's all just sitting in the orb.
- 26:22This is just ridiculous. You imagine what?
- 26:24That's like, it's like if we just think about it, like how
- 26:29ridiculous and stupid is this? They tell you that they're doing
- 26:33this unique encryption of your data and then at the same token,
- 26:37you can also sign up twice, upset with the launch setbacks
- 26:41glitches with the signup process and delays with bonuses a group
- 26:44of or Bop. Raiders from around the world
- 26:46began to draft a joint letter of complaints to Worldcom.
- 26:49Oh my God, we are surprised. Look at this thing, I guess this
- 26:52is what it looks like under. That weird shiny thing.
- 26:55Looks like a death star. It kind of does it.
- 26:58Kind of does like the death of humanity right there.
- 27:02Yeah I'm know this this articles like super long so I'm scrolling
- 27:04through all this. Alright so here we go okay.
- 27:15On her face, though. The look on her face, says it
- 27:17all. What is happening here?
- 27:20Why am I here? Do you see the lengths that
- 27:22people go through to try to convince you that Bitcoin isn't
- 27:26necessary? It's insane.
- 27:28It's freaking insane. Dude.
- 27:30They're standing around with a weird ball.
- 27:32That doesn't work. Stands your eyeballs and steals
- 27:35your biometric data to convince you out of sound money.
- 27:38Yeah. Okay.
- 27:40And to convince you that their system, their their system is
- 27:43fair. Anyways.
- 27:45Okay on January 28th, negus Warren World coins, head of
- 27:50growth, shared a disappointing announcement and that's January
- 27:5328th of 2022 with the increasingly frazzled operators,
- 27:57World coins, launch had been pushed back once more to give
- 28:00the company time to deploy more orbs.
- 28:02Make some of its technology open source and stop storing users
- 28:07biometric data but they just said before that, the data was
- 28:10safe and that they were going to delete it because privacy,
- 28:13anyways, I guess that's just how it works, right?
- 28:16You say one thing in one part of the article, you say another, it
- 28:18doesn't matter. So this is one of the operators
- 28:20who started to have a guilty conscience.
- 28:22One, former operator said in an interview you're supposed to
- 28:25tell people what they want to hear, not the truth.
- 28:29And to this day, I still feel bad.
- 28:31People may never receive the money, they were promised.
- 28:33We make no warranty that we will be successful in launching
- 28:36World, coin, Network or issuing. Wld tokens says a contract.
- 28:40Distributors must sign before receiving the orb.
- 28:45So they have to tell the end users that they're going to get
- 28:48money, but these people sign a document.
- 28:51When they received the orb stating that they know that this
- 28:55may go straight to zero. I want you guys to think about
- 28:58this, okay these are the lengths that people are going to to
- 29:03convince you out of Bitcoin. We have random people walking
- 29:07around with a giant that reflective ball, scanning
- 29:11eyeballs. To give you quote unquote free
- 29:15money. This is the timeline where in
- 29:17Neko, no, and to make sure that you get your fair share of the
- 29:21free money as well. How could I forget that?
- 29:23How could dude Irish are need. Oh, I think you fucking nailed
- 29:27it. I don't have anything more to
- 29:28add to that. That was just buy Bitcoin.
- 29:31You don't have to scan your goddamn eyeball.
- 29:33Like, that's it. That's it like he's just crazy
- 29:36man. It's crazy that they raised one
- 29:39and that's some. Yeah, not shit that they raise
- 29:41that money, right, anyway. Sam what That's on this saying
- 29:44that but baffled by the valuation and like this failed.
- 29:48I mean, how many, many months did it take for this thing to
- 29:50like just blow up like three months or something?
- 29:53Like, it was just like yesterday but who in their right mind
- 29:58would think this was a good idea.
- 29:59Like please take my eyeballs and I trust you and they give me the
- 30:02free money that you just print out of nowhere like and the Sam
- 30:06Altman guy. I remember it's just an ego that
- 30:08like they, it's like I'm here too, they can't humble
- 30:11themselves. And just, you know, Bend I need
- 30:13a Bitcoin say I can't control this thing.
- 30:15They're like, ah, I'm successful entrepreneur.
- 30:18I'm a y, combinator guy. I have all the connections with
- 30:21PCS. I'm going to create a better
- 30:23Bitcoin and it's like the same shit except it's the worst
- 30:26fucking idea I've ever heard in my life.
- 30:28And it's not surprising to me that like, BuzzFeed breaks the
- 30:32news that this thing's just so like a mess like three months
- 30:35later. So, I completely agree.
- 30:37I think that's exactly what happened to you on musk and
- 30:40Doge. That's what happens.
- 30:41A molten today. Can't.
- 30:43And the fact that in Bitcoin they are like everybody else and
- 30:48you must get in line. Just like Michael sealer and buy
- 30:51Bitcoin just like everybody else and they can't stand that fact,
- 30:56right? So they try to create their own
- 30:58fucking monstrosity and it leads to fucking disaster right?
- 31:01Every single time and this is just another example of that.
- 31:05So yeah man, like we always say Bitcoin shines, a light of Truth
- 31:09on everything but anyways feel it's time for the daily meme.

- 36:04below to get 5% off. Anything off the store crypto,
- 36:06cloaks.com. All right, this was absolutely
- 36:11completely unexpected, I'm going to explain the reasons as to why
- 36:16I think this happens but this is treasury secretary, Janet
- 36:20Yellen, naming, Satoshi Nakamoto by name.
- 36:23And speaking of it, and this is a complete pivot from what she
- 36:27did a couple months ago when she was appointed to treasury.
- 36:31These are some of the comments that she did.
- 36:33And she said, during her confirmation hearing said,
- 36:36Yellen raised concerns around the use of Bitcoin and
- 36:38cryptocurrency by terrorists and money launderers.
- 36:41Yell, and say that she believes many cryptocurrencies are used
- 36:43at least in, in a sense, mainly for ACT illicit Finance.
- 36:47So she said that cryptocurrencies are mainly used
- 36:49for illicit finance and then she kind of changes And she says
- 36:54this and this was such an important moment that this was
- 36:57actually mentioned by Senator Cynthia lummis, at the Bitcoin
- 37:01conference she was speaking of this exact moment so I don't
- 37:05know what's going on there. I suspect there's reasoning
- 37:08behind it and let's get to it in comprehensive government
- 37:13approach to digital asset policy.
- 37:17Digital assets have grown explosively, reaching a market
- 37:22cap of three trillion dollars last November from 14 billion
- 37:27just five years, prior digital assets, may be relatively new
- 37:33but they're part of a larger Trend.
- 37:36The digitization of Finance that's been in the making for
- 37:40decades in 1990, there were fewer than three million
- 37:46internet users. And now there are about four and
- 37:49a half billion. We take for granted that many
- 37:53aspects of our financial lives, can be managed from small
- 37:58internet-connected devices that fit into the palms of our hands.
- 38:04This growth in Digital Services, has opened up a world of
- 38:08possibilities and risks that would have seemed Fantastical
- 38:13only a few decades ago Financial Services.
- 38:17Along with most Industries have evolved in response to
- 38:22exponential advances in computing, power and
- 38:26connectivity. Most recently new technology has
- 38:31raised the possibility of reduced.
- 38:33The lion Reliance on centralized intermediaries like Banks and
- 38:39credit card companies. In 2008, a person or group of
- 38:45people using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto proposed a
- 38:51decentralized peer-to-peer system for making and processing
- 38:56payments. A key challenge in digital
- 39:00payments is to prevent the same assets from being spent twice.
- 39:06The Bitcoin white paper proposed in novel method for validating
- 39:11transactions using cryptography, that address the so-called
- 39:17double spend problem, this and other Innovations related to
- 39:22distributed Ledger. Technology are the foundation
- 39:26for blockchain based digital assets.
- 39:30Over. Okay so absolutely goddamn
- 39:34historic. Let me kind of show you what I
- 39:37think this is caused by this is this is the you know the five
- 39:42stages of grief this is denial. This is anger.
- 39:45This is bargaining, this is depression.
- 39:48This acceptance governments are right here right now and the
- 39:51bargaining stage, right? And the kind of this this stage
- 39:55right here now, Here's the thing, right?
- 39:58So we went from, mainly used for illicit Finance.
- 40:03Why is this happening? Why is Janet Yellen changing
- 40:05tune look, I have suspicions right?
- 40:08First this is a, you know, an article from The Wall Street
- 40:11Journal Bank, deposits could drop for the first time since
- 40:14World War Two. Where else would people put
- 40:17their money right now? Let's pay attention to how many
- 40:22people own, you know, cryptocurrencies Bitcoin in the
- 40:26u.s. write numbers from the NY dig, right?
- 40:29That is the company that did the whole Coin for institutions,
- 40:34when Michael sailor, did his presentation group in 2021 found
- 40:38that about 22% of the u.s. adult population of roughly 46 million
- 40:44Americans own Bitcoin, right? So think about it.
- 40:49That's a very, very large voting Bloc and you essentially Janet
- 40:54yellen's posture was what these people were doing, was basically
- 41:00legal, right? So she's Changing tune a little
- 41:03bit, so just kind of have that in your mind, right?
- 41:08Decrease in Bank deposits even though it's too early to tell,
- 41:11right? You have a big chunk of the u.s.
- 41:15holding Bitcoin or buying Bitcoins specifically Bitcoin
- 41:18doesn't say crypto in this. And now, what is the situation
- 41:22of the u.s., right? Because they kind of have to try
- 41:25to stem the flow. Right?
- 41:27How do you, how do you stem the flow of people getting out of,
- 41:31you know, Fiat currencies. You kind of build your own type
- 41:34of cryptocurrency but it looks like they're a lot.
- 41:37Many years away, right? Crypto, like digital dollar at
- 41:40least several years away. Janet Yellen says, article goes
- 41:44on to say, I can't tell you what conclusions, we will reach but
- 41:47we must be clear that issuing, a central bank, digital currency.
- 41:50Likely present a major design engineering challenge that would
- 41:54require years of development, not months.
- 41:57If it takes years for the u.s. government to develop a CBC
- 42:01they're fucked and I think they're starting to notice that.
- 42:04So what is the move? And what is the thing that they
- 42:07can regulate? And we've always said this term,
- 42:10we said the government's are going to go after the lowest
- 42:13hanging fruit. Anything that is not
- 42:15sufficiently decentralized, right?
- 42:17The government could metaphorically, cut the head off
- 42:19of that. So what are they going to try to
- 42:21do the go after stable coins? Because the thing about stable
- 42:25coins is that they provide, they give the illusion that they are
- 42:29unsensible. They're unconscious skateable
- 42:32like Bitcoin is but in reality, even tether tether, could freeze
- 42:37your u.s. DT.
- 42:39And that's exactly why the US government is gearing up.
- 42:44To try to regulate it. And before I get to this
- 42:47article, that's exactly what Cynthia lummis said at the
- 42:50Bitcoin conference. She said specifically, the US
- 42:54government doesn't want to release a lot of people in the
- 42:57Senate aren't completely on board with Central Bank, digital
- 43:01currencies because of the Privacy implications because of
- 43:06the censorship implications, So, this article goes on to say
- 43:11Washington debates, cryptocurrency, rules with
- 43:14sights set on stable coins, as Washington attempts to get its
- 43:17arms around rapid, the rapidly growing cryptocurrency industry
- 43:21that first line should tell you everything you need to know and
- 43:25this goes back to what I was saying that they're in the
- 43:28bargaining phase. But remember what we always
- 43:31Advocate on the show we are living through the separation of
- 43:35money and state period. It's not the Raishin of money
- 43:39and state kind of it's the separation of money and state
- 43:44period. So they're in the bargaining
- 43:47phase right now and as they get pressed more, and more into a
- 43:51corner like a fucking trapped animal.
- 43:54That's when they'll become more vicious, that hasn't happened
- 43:56yet, and only Bitcoin will be able to protect you when that
- 44:01does inevitably happen. Policymakers in the B
- 44:05Administration on Capitol Hill have identified stable coins as
- 44:08an initial Target for tighter regulations.
- 44:13Anyways, I'm going to read you this, this passage, it's
- 44:16formatted L, he tweeted it today, it's a passage from a
- 44:19very, very awesome book that I recommend every Bitcoin or must
- 44:23read. It's called the sovereign
- 44:24individual and I think it perfectly summarizes.
- 44:27What exactly is happening here. Anyways, it goes on to say, with
- 44:32the speed of change out racing, the moral and economic capacity
- 44:35of many, and living generations to adapt, you could expect to
- 44:39see a fierce an Indigent resistance to the information
- 44:42revolution. Notwithstanding its great
- 44:44promise to liberate the future. The new information and
- 44:47communication Technologies are more subversive of the modern
- 44:51State than any political threat to its prominence since
- 44:55Columbus. Sailed this is important because
- 44:57those in powder Power have Selden reacted peacefully to
- 45:00developments that undermine their Authority.
- 45:03We expect it to be a time of great danger, and great reward
- 45:07and a time of much diminished Civility, and some Realms and
- 45:10unprecedented scope and others. Increasingly autonomous
- 45:15individuals and bankrupt and desperate governments will
- 45:17confront one another across a New Divide.
- 45:22So, kind of put together everything that we've covered on
- 45:25the show, right? Record-breaking inflation.
- 45:30Governments are starting to go after stable coins to try to
- 45:33stem the flow. I think this is going to
- 45:36continue to heat up and the really the only way you protect
- 45:39yourself from this. The only way that you really
- 45:42find true sovereignty, that fall sovereignty that a lot of
- 45:45cryptocurrencies provide, you, is by opting out taking self,
- 45:49custody of your Bitcoin and you should be running your own node
- 45:52as well, right? So yeah, things are heating up.
- 45:56I think that stable coins in the next five years, are not going
- 46:00to be the stable coins that you have today.
- 46:03So you're only saving, Haven is Bitcoin really.
- 46:07Anyways. Phil what are your thoughts on
- 46:09this? Man, as you're reading through
- 46:12that, I, I'm just sitting there thinking like they don't, you
- 46:15know, it's exactly what you said.
- 46:17They don't have years to develop a CB D c--.
- 46:20They are, I mean, don't get me wrong, it's not to say that the
- 46:23u.s. dollar is going to get crushed, right?
- 46:26Because it is the current basis used you know for the majority
- 46:30of the world's debt, the majority of the world's debt is
- 46:33denominated in u.s. dollars. So I don't see that happening
- 46:38but I also don't like Like the I don't think they're willing to
- 46:42lose the ground right in developing a CBC so so what can
- 46:48they possibly do? Right?
- 46:50What are their options? Their option is to only either
- 46:55continue the social attack on bitcoin, right?
- 46:59They can, they can continue the social attack on bitcoin, see
- 47:01how far they can kick. The can down the road or they
- 47:05can start to embrace it as they scramble to figure out how
- 47:10they're going. Going to build because look, the
- 47:12government is not going to go quietly into the night, right?
- 47:16They are going to desperately attempt to maintain whatever
- 47:19levers of control that they can, as long as they can, I think and
- 47:23add to your point. I think that Cynthia lummis,
- 47:25kind of said this right where she said, this during the
- 47:28Bitcoin conference where they don't want to do a central bank,
- 47:31digital currency, but if you connect the dots and what Janet
- 47:34Yellen was saying, like I don't think they have time to roll it
- 47:37out. So what is the lowest hanging
- 47:39fruit? Capture the stable coins, right?
- 47:43And then essentially you have a version of a central bank to
- 47:46it's like a private version of a central bank, digital currency,
- 47:49which is definitely better than a CB D c--, but still, it still
- 47:53allows the US government to control, right?
- 47:57And it's crazy because it's exactly how they're doing the
- 48:00censoring nowadays. They're not censoring directly.
- 48:03They're essentially telling private companies to do it for
- 48:06them. Right.
- 48:06That's exactly what happened with Edward Snowden, when Edward
- 48:09Snowden essentially release the thing that the u.s. government
- 48:12was spying on, citizens. Whatever, that's funny because
- 48:16they did a bait and switch, they just move the spine, the spine
- 48:21started happening with the private companies themselves.
- 48:23So AT&T, and Verizon, they started Ricola Ricola recording
- 48:27the calls, right? And then when the US government
- 48:29would subpoena, they would give it to them instead of the US
- 48:31government directly doing it themselves.
- 48:34I suspect the same thing is going to happen.
- 48:36Just like in the banking system. The banking system has a
- 48:40compliance system, right in Canada.
- 48:42For example, when they started censoring the protesters, it
- 48:46wasn't the government directly censoring them.
- 48:47They went to the banks and they said, hey, could you censor
- 48:51those protesters in the bouncy capital in the bouncy castles?
- 48:54Right? So I suspect that the same path
- 48:58is going to happen. Through stable coins, and all of
- 49:01this like what? You're seeing this in countries
- 49:04that are cut off from the US Financial system where they're
- 49:06using stable coins to receive money from Overseas.
- 49:10I suspect that will be cut off and the only, the only hope left
- 49:15will be Bitcoin because it's sufficiently decentralized to
- 49:18survive the onslaught anyways, Sam.
- 49:20What are your thoughts on this? Yeah, I definitely agree with
- 49:24what you said and it's just decentralisation is one of those
- 49:28things where you don't know you need it until it's like an
- 49:30adversarial environment when you're in there.
- 49:32So it's kind of like a problem. You can you know you can say
- 49:35your decentralized in name and like all these shit coins do Do.
- 49:39But when push comes to shove, you either are or you're not and
- 49:42when somebody tries to attack you, right?
- 49:44And so I totally agree with you that the feds not going to try
- 49:47to build their own because they're terrible with tech.
- 49:50And it will take a lot longer than the Euro take, like, 10
- 49:53years for them to put out like actual working product, without
- 49:55any bugs or vulnerabilities in it.
- 49:57So I think they're going to basically like by a private
- 50:01table clean issuer. And you saw Black Rock, like
- 50:05invest 400 million in circle, I think today.
- 50:08And so Crack. Seen the writing on the wall.
- 50:10Black rocks. Coming in there.
- 50:11They're like, yo, we know exactly what's going to happen.
- 50:14We're getting Arts tentacles in here in circle now because
- 50:18circles, probably the best position.
- 50:19They've been very highly regulated stable coin, issue are
- 50:24from the get-go. So, I see that as the most
- 50:27possible but plausible solution, and I think the social attacks
- 50:30on Bitcoins energy usage and its volatility is going to increase
- 50:34and maybe they'll try to like incentivize use of their their
- 50:38CDC C /, stable coin, whatever they want to call it, I don't
- 50:42know by like offering incentives like tax breaks or anything to
- 50:46anything to like try to get people to buy their shit coin
- 50:51instead of Bitcoin because you know Bitcoin wins out on its
- 50:57monetary property. So they have to basically
- 50:59incentivize some other way like hey you can eat extra meat this
- 51:03month or something. Like I don't know what they're
- 51:04going to do, but that's kind of what I can, what I see happening
- 51:08if you behave You can get a portion of meat this month but
- 51:11yeah, dude, it's just yeah, it's I do.
- 51:14Yeah, man. Yeah.
- 51:16Go ahead sir. Sorry, you got no, it's
- 51:19absolutely crazy. This is going to continue to
- 51:21heat up like we said I think it's promising that Yellen
- 51:26essentially kind of took a changed her tune but again,
- 51:31don't get too excited. There's a reason they're doing
- 51:34that. And again I think it's because
- 51:36they're not fully prepared and they don't have the political
- 51:39Litical support to perhaps roll out a CBC but it like I said,
- 51:43they're in the bargaining stage. So we're going to try to do is
- 51:46essentially make the stable coin and extension of the existing
- 51:51exclusionary Financial system that we have today.
- 51:54But anyways Phil yeah, it wasn't go ahead, Sam guys, have one
- 51:57more thing. I just think I just think like
- 52:01yeah, I don't think Jenny on she might look like a nice Grandma
- 52:04but she is definitely ulterior motives going on here, but I do
- 52:07think that's the first time. She's said, The word Bitcoin.
- 52:09That's why I was like she usually it's like digital assets
- 52:12or crypto. I think that's like the first
- 52:13time she said it and it seems like from the Biden executive
- 52:17order where he liked told everyone to basically research
- 52:21this stuff like that was like three weeks ago or something.
- 52:23But we can expect like more education to come through and
- 52:28these politicians are going to start to come a little more
- 52:30educated on the entire space. And so I think that's starting
- 52:33to like permeate and at least they're finally starting to
- 52:36actually run the numbers of little bit and Maybe they're
- 52:39going to get a little scared when they start doing that but
- 52:41absolutely man I completely agree.
- 52:44They're definitely in the bargaining stage but I do
- 52:46anyways filled it was an open source.
- 52:48Software release today, wanting to everybody about it software
