- 0:00Day by day, the economy is getting worse for the middle
- 0:02class. The divergent between the haves
- 0:05and the have nots continues to get bigger.
- 0:07Every chart indicates that the 4th turning is on the horizon
- 0:10and AI is only making matters worse for the middle class.
- 0:13Are you prepared for a future where AI is coming for your job?
- 0:16Today I'm going to show you what I'm seeing out there in the
- 0:18market as it relates to AI and disruption for the middle class.
- 0:21And if you're in the middle class, what you can do to avoid
- 0:24this disruption. This is Dante Coke with Bitcoin.
- 0:26Simply let's go. The middle class is being
- 0:32decimated and this isn't hyperbole or hyperbolic.
- 0:35Hear what McDonald's CEO had to say about what's happening in
- 0:38the economy and. Part of what we also saw was
- 0:40that particularly with middle and lower income consumers,
- 0:44they're feeling under a lot of pressure.
- 0:46But he said. I think there's a lot of, you
- 0:48know, commentary about what's the state of the economy, how's
- 0:50it doing? And, and what we see is it's
- 0:52really kind of A2 tier economy. If you're upper income earning
- 0:57over $100,000, things are good. Stock markets are near all time
- 1:01highs. You're feeling, you know, quite
- 1:04confident about things, you're seeing international travel, all
- 1:07those barometers of upper income consumers are, are doing quite
- 1:11well. What we see with middle and
- 1:13lower income consumers is actually a different story.
- 1:16It's that consumers under a lot of pressure in our industry,
- 1:18traffic for lower income consumers is down double digits.
- 1:23And it's because people are either choosing to skip a meal,
- 1:27so we're seeing breakfast, people are actually skipping
- 1:30breakfast, or they're choosing to just eat at home.
- 1:32And so for our business, which has a significant group of
- 1:37consumers which are in that middle and lower income, we
- 1:40needed to step in with something like what?
- 1:42We're doing one of the signposts that makes me very fearful for
- 1:45the middle class is all of the videos coming out about the robo
- 1:48taxis down in Austin, TX. The videos coming out are
- 1:51absolutely insane, but the data that's coming out is even more
- 1:54shocking right now. Prices for robo taxis, or about
- 1:571/5 of the amount that they are for, or Uber, Lyft or any other
- 2:00ride sharing servers. It's obvious the stunning
- 2:02effects that this is going to have on the gig economy.
- 2:04Predominantly staffed by middle and low income workers who are
- 2:07trying to make ends meet with a second and third gig job.
- 2:10Anthropic CEO says that AI is not only coming for gig workers,
- 2:13but it's going to wipe out 10 to 20% of every white collar entry
- 2:17level job. And this is already happening as
- 2:2010 1/2% of people between the ages of 16 and 24 are
- 2:24unemployed. Basically the economy relies on
- 2:26spending from baby boomers in the rich.
- 2:28The top 20% drive 50% of the spending.
- 2:31And this is just the beginning. AI is coming for more jobs, so
- 2:34the. Super intelligence is where
- 2:36things could get really nutty and we're already starting and
- 2:39that's where like the doomsday scenarios, Terminator ones kind
- 2:42of come out of that group. So what happens if you know all
- 2:48drivers go away? Well, every self driving car is
- 2:52for full time jobs and every humanoid robot in a factory has
- 2:56five jobs, maybe 6 because those jobs you can only, you can work
- 2:59for maybe 7 hours as a just physical limitation as humans
- 3:03were driving. You can work a 12 hour shift and
- 3:05those are those are going to be here folks.
- 3:07And before 20-30 you're going to see Amazon, which has massively
- 3:11invested in this, replace all factory workers and all drivers.
- 3:15The idea that when you order something from Amazon, a human
- 3:18would touch it at any point in that supply chain is insane.
- 3:22It will be 100%, you know, a robotic, which means all of
- 3:27those workers are going away. Every Amazon worker, all those
- 3:30jobs, UU PS:, gone, FedEx gone, every all of those are going to
- 3:35be gone. And those companies will be more
- 3:36profitable. And when you order something,
- 3:38it's going to come faster and cheaper and better and your Uber
- 3:42will be half as much. But somebody needs to retrain
- 3:45these people. And that's actually a very valid
- 3:47fear. That technologist will tell
- 3:49somebody like you, don't worry about it.
- 3:50They'll just be more jobs created.
- 3:53The question is what happens to those people who get caught in
- 3:56the gap, right. And when we had this happen in
- 3:57the Industrial Revolution, that happened over 40 years, 50
- 4:00years. And, you know, the agricultural
- 4:03revolution, you know, again, that was multi decades.
- 4:06This one will happen in a decade.
- 4:08And so it'll be very different. And yeah, you should be.
- 4:11Concerned. The reality of the situation is
- 4:13you have to be an owner of assets. the Fed is backed into a
- 4:16corner and the economy has nowhere to go other than to pad
- 4:19the profits of big companies. Earnings look good, but job
- 4:22growth is at a halt. They have to print money in
- 4:25order to get us out of this Great Depression that's coming.
- 4:28They can't let the system fail. They will run the economy high.
- 4:31We're just in a situation where everyone who's involved in the
- 4:34crypto world, So if you separated your audience by
- 4:37people that knew me from the macro world and people that have
- 4:39grown up with you on the crypto world, the basement is the major
- 4:42story. They have to run the economy hot
- 4:45and then rates need to be lower than where inflation is going to
- 4:49be. And that's where we're headed.
- 4:50So instead of trying to fight it, I'll use Darius Dale's
- 4:53comment that he said to you, focus on the destination.
- 4:56The feds going to be more dovish going forward.
- 4:58They're going to be running the economy hot.
- 5:00Make your investments based on that.
- 5:02Listen to this great clip from Mel Madison from the TFTC
- 5:05podcast on where he thinks things will go when the Fed, not
- 5:08if the Fed lowers rates and the President enacts their policies
- 5:12to run this economy on fire. Think the new Fed dynamic that's
- 5:16going on is actually bullish bonds, which is a little anti
- 5:20consensus right now. And I think that, you know,
- 5:23we're we've got a president and an administration that is hell
- 5:27bent on creating an economic boom come hell or high water.
- 5:32He wants housing to soar. He wants lower rates, he wants
- 5:35higher equities. And he is going to push, push,
- 5:38push. And I think a lot of people are,
- 5:42you know, raising their hands in the air saying this is all going
- 5:46to collapse. And I'm not saying that's not
- 5:48impossible, but my bet is that it's actually going to happen.
- 5:53And that, you know, a year from now, we're going to be at an S
- 5:56and P / 7000. We're going to be a Bitcoin over
- 5:59150. We're going to be a gold over
- 6:014000. We're going to have a 10 year
- 6:04with A3 handle on it. And the economy is going to be
- 6:08booming. So short term, there's going to
- 6:11be bumps in the road, but long term, I think the trends
- 6:14continue. Hey, hold on one second.

- 7:16Every 4th turning is characterized by a desire for
- 7:18more order and a lack of ability to supply it from institutions
- 7:22and people in leadership. Disruption in technology and
- 7:25right now in the form of AI is happening faster than any
- 7:28policies that can be changed from our leaders.
- 7:30No matter who you elect, you cannot fight digital disruption
- 7:34with a policy. But you have to fight it with a
- 7:36protocol, one that's designed to absorb digital chaos and create
- 7:40digital order. You have to fight digital
- 7:42abundance with digital scarcity. Here's a great clip from Stephen
- 7:45Bartlett's podcast with AI Researcher about why Bitcoin is
- 7:49the only thing that we know has a fixed supply in this new world
- 7:52of AI. Free labor.
- 7:54What's money? Is it now Bitcoin?
- 7:56Do you invest in that? Is there something else which
- 7:59becomes the only resource we cannot fake?
- 8:02So those things are very important research topics.
- 8:05So you're investing in Bitcoin, aren't?
- 8:08You, yeah. Because it's a.
- 8:12It's the only scarce resource. Nothing else has scarcity.
- 8:16Everything else, if price goes up, we'll make more.
- 8:19I can make as much gold as you want.
- 8:21Given a proper price point. You cannot make more Bitcoin.
- 8:25Some people say Bitcoin is just this thing on a computer that we
- 8:28all agreed was valuable. We are a thing on a computer,
- 8:32remember? OK, so I mean not investment
- 8:37advice, but investment advice. It's hilarious.
- 8:40So that's one of those things where they tell you it's not but
- 8:42you know it is immediately there is a your call is important to
- 8:45us. That means your call is of 0
- 8:47importance and investment is like that.
- 8:49Yeah, yeah. When they say no investment
- 8:51advice, it's definitely investment advice, but it's not
- 8:53investment advice. OK.
- 8:55So you're bullish on Bitcoin because it's it can't be messed
- 8:59with? It is the only thing which we
- 9:02know how much there is in the universe.
- 9:05It's the only thing in the universe that they can't make
- 9:07more of, and there's very few people that understand this,
- 9:10even people like Stephen Bartlett who interview some of
- 9:12the top people in minds in the world.
- 9:14This is your alpha and your opportunity.
- 9:16This is your lifeboat. If you're in the middle class
- 9:19and you're struggling, you need to own assets and you need own
- 9:21assets that are going to appreciate faster than the
- 9:24debasement that's happening in the currency.
- 9:26And the only way that you can do that is with Bitcoin.
- 9:28Take your extra discretionary earnings and income and think
- 9:30about saving it in a technology that's designed to fight AI.
- 9:34Before you go. You can learn about AI and
- 9:36digital disruption and how Bitcoin leverages machines or
- 9:40proof of work in order to combat digital abundance.
- 9:43You can learn about that by going to the largest digital
