- 0:46So get yourself a novel today, not all dot EU, at the time of
- 0:49this recording, the price of Bitcoins at twenty thousand
- 0:52seven hundred and ninety five dollars.
- 0:54SAS per dollar also known as Moscow time.

- 1:06Bitcoin block height is seven hundred forty, four thousand
- 1:09four hundred and ninety-one the amount of reachable Bitcoin
- 1:13Odes. It's down about 100 nodes from
- 1:16last time, it's about 15 thousand nine hundred and six
- 1:19and the total amount of Bitcoin issued is at ninety point nine
- 1:24percent absolutely crazy good numbers.
- 1:27Overall moving on got some interesting Topics that I picked
- 1:31because pirate was going to come on the show today.
- 1:33Let me share that real quick. Alright, so check this out,
- 1:38absolute clown, world's more crazy shit.
- 1:41According to unusual Wales.com, 58% of Americans are living
- 1:46paycheck to paycheck including 30% of those earning two hundred
- 1:51fifty thousand dollars or more. That's, that's fucking crazy.
- 1:56According to payments and Lending Club, cooperation
- 1:59collaboration, Irving 3070 customers it was found that
- 2:03Millennials are the most likely to fall into the category of
- 2:06living paycheck to paycheck. But the greatest increase in
- 2:09consumers, living paycheck to paycheck is among Baby Boomers
- 2:13and seniors with 54% of Baby Boomers and seniors.
- 2:17Living paycheck-to-paycheck, / generational, divide data.
- 2:22And here is this cool little video.
- 2:24Bye, Adamo, Denver Bitcoin. And it shows what, what?
- 2:29The What inflation? Really looks like and I think
- 2:32it's across the time fan of two years.
- 2:35I can't play the video because of copyright I mean I can't play
- 2:39the audio because of cock right but let's check out the video
- 2:41let's let's fast forward a little bit.
- 2:43Oh crap price. Holy shit.
- 2:48Okay. So for our audio listeners gas
- 2:51prices since January twenty, twenty two hundred and thirty
- 2:56three percent increase week. 111 percent increase.
- 3:00Corn, 103 percent cotton, 100% oil, 77 coffee 57 sugar, 48,
- 3:07butter, 44, cheese, 30. But the good news is that orange
- 3:12juice is at least 30 percent cheaper than it was two years
- 3:16ago. So, connect this, what what I
- 3:18was talking about here? Seventy percent of Millennials
- 3:21live paycheck to paycheck, but like, I always say guys, if you
- 3:26have been saving in Bitcoin, it might be a totally Different
- 3:30story. So pirate, this sustainable
- 3:34brother things don't look. So so good right now.
- 3:38I don't think it is sustainable and I don't think we've gotten
- 3:41to the worst of it yet because a lot of the Gas and energy
- 3:45prices. They haven't really been
- 3:48factored in and they keep on going up almost like hockey
- 3:51stick. And so when you start to add all
- 3:54this stuff in, it starts to compound because as you know,
- 3:58Gas and energy Our, what it takes to basically do anything
- 4:03to run any business. And so this is just going to
- 4:06spiral and I'm not a doom and gloom, ER, like some people but
- 4:09like, I'm a, I feel like I'm a realist.
- 4:12And I just believe that probably around the fall time, we're
- 4:17going to really see a lot. More pain will see definite.
- 4:22I don't think it'll be death and destruction, but I think we'll
- 4:25see some real significant pain in the markets and in just in
- 4:29people And people's pocketbook because they just people can't
- 4:32afford this like know who can afford six seven dollars.
- 4:35Worth of gas are $7 a gallon of gas.
- 4:37They can. And unfortunately, the people
- 4:40that are hurt the worst are the people that make the least
- 4:43amount of money. Absolutely.
- 4:46And you kind of connect that with the fact, it's really
- 4:50tragic, especially for the older generation.
- 4:52Write it, you know, according to that data, bye-bye unusual.
- 4:57Whale.com. Right?
- 5:00Of Boomers, don't are living paycheck to paycheck.
- 5:03They're the people, what you said.
- 5:04They're the people that can't afford this type of situation,
- 5:08the most, right? So anyways Opti, what are your
- 5:11thoughts on this? My friend, man, I saw that chart
- 5:15today and it's absolutely amazing how high the inflation
- 5:20is gotten. And, furthermore, guys remember
- 5:23how much they've gas-lit us about the inflation and the hard
- 5:26numbers are atrocious and then just On the point of the Baby
- 5:31Boomers and seniors citizens living paycheck-to-paycheck.
- 5:34First of all, that's absolutely like mind-blowing that the Baby
- 5:39Boomers, the richest generation are so over-leveraged trying to
- 5:43keep up with the Joneses that they don't have any money left
- 5:46and just add a personal note. My grandma passed away a few
- 5:51years ago and at the end of her life, she was one of these
- 5:55statistics where she thought she was, you know, set up by the
- 5:59government. And and her social security, and
- 6:01all our Medicare was what supposedly working out and it
- 6:05just it will. There was no money left for her
- 6:08at the end. So I can personally say, you
- 6:11know, as an anecdote, that I've seen this happening and it's
- 6:15incredibly sad, so to see it at large and it's, it's just not
- 6:20looking good. It it's it's going to be it's
- 6:23going to get really bad. Like pirate says and and all
- 6:26those people wishing for their government money at the end of
- 6:29their lives. And it's just not going to be
- 6:31there and it's incredibly sad. Yeah, and let me just go over
- 6:35some, some, some data in terms of the Bitcoin price, right?
- 6:39If we go back, two years ago or in June right now, the price of
- 6:43Bitcoin in June of 2020 was at 9000 between 9,000 and nine
- 6:52thousand US dollars, right? So again, I think that the
- 6:55highest thing the highest percent increase their and In
- 7:00those numbers was about a hundred percent.
- 7:02It was, oh, gasps. What gasps was 233, right?
- 7:05So again life we always make the argument for right, is that
- 7:10life? Just gets cheaper.
- 7:11If you if you save in Bitcoin, Bitcoin is the best savings
- 7:15technology there is. Yeah of course.
- 7:18There's some people going to that are going to say, oh wow,
- 7:21big coins down, 70% from all-time highs, perhaps the
- 7:25year-on-year volatility. It's not it's you know, it it's
- 7:30It could definitely hurt, right? But you can't deny that on a on
- 7:34two, three four year time scale. Just Bitcoin is just far better
- 7:39as a money, right? Anyways Opti, one thing I want
- 7:43to add. Go ahead, go ahead pirate.
- 7:45Yeah, one thing I want to add is the other thing that will
- 7:49compound. This is like, 401ks are have
- 7:53just taken Pension funds. All those, you know, all these
- 7:56retirement funds? They've taken an incredible
- 7:58beating probably A drawdown of 20 to 40% depending on what kind
- 8:04of stocks and bonds you're holding.
- 8:06So you add that these are, you know, the Boomers / seniors,
- 8:10senior citizens. These are the people that are
- 8:12living off fixed income. They've saved they worked their
- 8:14asses off all their life and they were just, you know, they,
- 8:18they invested in all of these, various stocks and bonds that
- 8:21were kicking off dividends and all of a sudden they're seeing
- 8:25that their nest egg has shrunk by 30 percent value.
- 8:29Compound that by rising, Rising fuel, Rising energy, Rising food
- 8:34prices, inflation, on all levels.
- 8:37And to me, like, this is really scary and like, I see it with my
- 8:41own family, just like I have a, I have a step, Grandpa step,
- 8:47father-in-law who is retiring and he's now saying hello, man.
- 8:53I'm going to have to get a job and like, here's this guy like
- 8:55last year if we talked, he was excited about retirement within
- 8:59the last couple of Months like he's stressing out going maybe I
- 9:01should stick around a little longer and like that's just not
- 9:04fair and it's really sad and this is just going to compound.
- 9:07So anyway yeah it's we're in a really interesting time and it's
- 9:11going to be kind of scary watching it play out.
- 9:15I absolutely agree. I think it's definitely scary.
- 9:18I think you could definitely had yourself a little bit though
- 9:21saving and Bitcoin. I think Bitcoin is really going
- 9:23to show its benefits its strengths, especially over the
- 9:27next coming years. But anyways, Is time for the
- 9:31Daily News. Brought to you by crypto
- 9:33cloaks.com they make some of the best 3D printed Bitcoin merch
- 9:37like the famous 3D printed Bitcoin grenade toy comes in any

- 9:48down below to get 5% off crypto quotes.com.
- 9:51All right, so, this news drop last week and I think it was, I
- 9:57wouldn't call it scary, but I would definitely, Only say that
- 10:01the days of Bitcoin flying under the radar are definitely
- 10:07definitely coming to an end. I think that Regulators because
- 10:10of you know this defiled, this shit coronary all the scams
- 10:15right? Or really starting to focus on
- 10:19bitcoin and shit coins. And there's also collusion,
- 10:23there's also they're working Regulators from different
- 10:26International organizations are working together.
- 10:29Is really rare. I don't see that often, right,
- 10:32but I think it's happening because of the fact that Bitcoin
- 10:36and shit coin, and all these things are borderless.
- 10:38So, anyways, let's check out some of these article.
- 10:41This article request. I'm going to read some of it,
- 10:43then I'm going to ask pirate what he thinks.
- 10:45I always, you know, pie it always calms me down when I'm
- 10:48like, dude, they're gonna ban it.
- 10:50You know, and he's always liked Niko, you know, this is what
- 10:51they want. Right?
- 10:52So I definitely want to evaluate his opinion when it comes to the
- 10:55stuff. So anyways, let's check out this
- 10:57article. It's on law. 360.com Name.
- 11:00The article is Global Securities, Watchdog charts out,
- 11:03crypto roadmap, a global markets, Watchdog said Thursday,
- 11:07that it will deliver policy actions by the end of next year
- 11:10to help security Regulators improve oversight over of
- 11:13digital assets. Focusing on crypto products and
- 11:16decentralised finance systems. The international organization
- 11:19of Securities Commission. Said that said the reports will
- 11:22be generated by fintech focused force.
- 11:25That was formed in March by its board of directors.
- 11:28The task force agenda will I'd iOS Co policies for the near
- 11:32future. IOS Co ambitious roadmap.
- 11:36Will deliver the global policies needed by Regulators to address
- 11:39the considerable risks arising from a rapidly developing
- 11:43complex opaque crypto asset ecosystem while preserving the
- 11:48societal benefits of innovation. Actually Adler iOS Co chair and
- 11:53the CEO of the Hong Kong Securities.
- 11:54And Futures commission. Commission said iOS CEO is
- 11:58developing its so called roadmap at a time of unprecedented
- 12:02turmoil for crypto markets, some crypto Focus lenders and hedge
- 12:06funds have filed for bankruptcy or liquidated while Flagship
- 12:10digital currency Bitcoin is down more than fifty percent
- 12:13year-to-date. So again all the shit coins, all
- 12:16the scam. So whatever.
- 12:18And what happens is that, a lot of these Regulators, a lot of
- 12:21these older people. They combine both Bitcoin and
- 12:24shit coins even though we know it's clearly different, right?
- 12:27But in the eyes of regulators, they don't see it.
- 12:29Away the project on crypto assets which will examine the
- 12:32trading platforms for digital assets and the potential for
- 12:35Market manipulation as well as safekeeping and custody concerns
- 12:38will be led by the UK's Financial conduct Authority.
- 12:42Here's the signal guys. The US Securities and Exchange
- 12:44Commission will lead work on the defy project which will examine
- 12:49stable coins, crypto lending, and borrowing platforms as well
- 12:52as the interactions between defy and more traditional financial
- 12:56markets. Now, defy we've always said defy
- 12:59isn't really Defy its centralized, right?
- 13:01So we've always said on this channel that it will inevitably
- 13:05be captured by governments same as stable coins.
- 13:08And it's not a it's a coincidence that the SEC is the
- 13:12one taking lead on the stable coins, right?
- 13:15The u.s. dollars a global Reserve currency that US
- 13:17government has a lot of power because of that it obviously
- 13:20wants to bring the stable coins under its under its visor under
- 13:24its under its power, right? So that makes sense.
- 13:27But another thing that I want you guys to pay attention to
- 13:29It's two different International bodies working together on this
- 13:34right? UK taking care of digital assets
- 13:37including Bitcoin and the UN the SEC looking into D, find stable
- 13:42coins, both projects, call for reports, with policy
- 13:45recommendations to be published by the fourth quarter of 2023
- 13:48iOS. CEO said it will consult with
- 13:51International bodies including the financial Standards Board
- 13:54which recommends which issues recommendations on financial
- 13:57regulations iOS. And here's another piece of
- 14:00signal guys. Advises Global Security
- 14:02Regulators around the globe. Through non-biting
- 14:05recommendations, its members include Regulators that oversee
- 14:09some 130 jurisdictions or 95% of the world's market.
- 14:14So it doesn't matter where you're watching this from or
- 14:17where you're hearing this from. That piece of news is most
- 14:20likely going to affect you. So pirate what are your thoughts
- 14:26on this bro? Like what's going on here is
- 14:28this is Noise is this signal? What's going on?
- 14:34There's two ways to look at this.
- 14:35Okay, so I hate regulation. And of course, you know, it's
- 14:41it's it's always kind of scary because you just it's you've got
- 14:45a bunch of students who are making policy decisions who are
- 14:50very uneducated and that's never good.
- 14:54And you have personal bias injected, you have like the
- 14:57lobbying efforts of Various people with their agendas.
- 15:01So it's a lot of uncertainty. So uncertainty is what breeds
- 15:05fear and that's what gets everybody's like, you know, that
- 15:09feeling in their, in their, in their gut of like, oh shit, this
- 15:12isn't good and it isn't good. I mean, I wish we could operate
- 15:16and a perfect world where, you know, we were untouched and free
- 15:19market could decide but in reality that's just not how it
- 15:23how it works. So here's another take on it.
- 15:26This is inevitable, we've known this has been inevitable.
- 15:30For years and we thought it was going to happen.
- 15:34We thought we would see stronger regulation a couple of years
- 15:37back. And, you know, we've just seen
- 15:39these like little bit of almost like kicking the can down the
- 15:42road, we'll see how this all plays out.
- 15:45But as we got into this last bull cycle and what we've
- 15:48watched with the implosion of, you know, what is it Celsius and
- 15:52Luna and all that crap. Like you know, there's a lot of
- 15:56people who are who are scamming straight up scamming not I mean,
- 15:59people have been scamming for years but the scams are just
- 16:01getting bigger and bigger and bigger.
- 16:03And so to me like this was an inevitable and this is like
- 16:09there's no way to not have this this critical juncture in the
- 16:15space that we're in right now. So I think actually as we move
- 16:19through it and hopefully it won't be as bad as we think it
- 16:22is and as we get through it I feel like it's going to open up
- 16:28way more opportunity for Bigger entities to get into Bitcoin and
- 16:33these other various cryptocurrencies and so to me,
- 16:37like I kind of have a an open mind about it.
- 16:42I, of course, I don't like it, but like I said, we have no
- 16:44choice in this. It's going to happen but the
- 16:47sooner that we can get through this and kind of figure out
- 16:51where, you know, the cards will fall.
- 16:54I think they'll be opportunity in it.
- 16:57So some in a way, I have to say, embrace the fear.
- 17:00It's normal for everyone to be fearful and to not like this.
- 17:04But like I said, we have no choice in this.
- 17:05They're going to do this, no matter what they're going to
- 17:07ramrod this shit through. And there's going to be shit
- 17:09that we don't like, but I also believe there's going to be some
- 17:12opportunities that stem from it. And who knows?
- 17:14This could actually have a positive influence on price.
- 17:18Now, worst case scenario, you know, I feel like if out of all
- 17:23the all the different currencies out there, I feel like Bitcoin
- 17:26is probably the safest. So, I'm more optimistic for
- 17:31Bitcoins future and less optimistic for some of these
- 17:35Shady or projects that are that are literally just leveraged
- 17:39freaking scams. So, you know, I hope, I hope
- 17:43people see the both sides of it, but like I said, we're going to
- 17:45have to embrace the fear, and we're going to have to roll with
- 17:47it. Yeah, I 100% agree and just to
- 17:51re-emphasize, right? Like they can regulate the on
- 17:54and off ramps, which is what they're going to do, but they
- 17:56can't regulate Bitcoin and I think that what you said,
- 18:01piratas as this was inevitable and as more and more regulation,
- 18:05you know, comes in, as more people decide to opt out of, you
- 18:09know, the traditional Financial system.
- 18:11Governments are going to capture anything that centralized that's
- 18:15defy that that's inevitably the stable coins, right?
- 18:19Anything that has a metaphorical head to chop off their going to
- 18:22inevitably get it's just a matter of time and I think
- 18:25that's where Bitcoins decentralization is really going
- 18:29to shine. Always up to you want to chime
- 18:30in on this. Well, I really loved Pirates,
- 18:35very level-headed. Take of this on both sides
- 18:38because it's usually not. Not that level-headed, but I
- 18:41agree man. Like Bitcoin, hit the mainstream
- 18:44and whether we like it or not they're going to regulate it.
- 18:48Let's just hope that they don't over regulate it and mess
- 18:51everything up around here. So that's the only thing I can
- 18:54add. You're muted.
- 18:59I definitely agree with that. Anyways, moving on to this next
- 19:03part. Definitely want to check it out.
- 19:06Pirate, he's writing for he's not even writing, he's literally
- 19:12the the lead of the simply Bitcoin dot news site simply
- 19:17Bitcoin sub stack. He's been writing some killer
- 19:20articles. We've been we've been promoting
- 19:22them right. The bear Market Diaries or
- 19:24pirate interviews real plebs gets Takes.
- 19:27And that will definitely help a lot of you guys in, especially
- 19:31if it's your first bear market experience.
- 19:34And, of course, he's been exposing a lot of the bad
- 19:38players in the space. And I think that's something
- 19:41that that's unique to Simply Bitcoin.
- 19:44So, I definitely want to cover this article.
- 19:46It's called stock to flow is officially canceled and I'm
- 19:51going to ask Pirates have questions about it.
- 19:53I'm obviously, I don't want to ruin it for you guys, I want you
- 19:56guys to read The entire article will be released this week but I
- 19:59am going to go through some of the, some of the titles or the,
- 20:04I don't know, what would you call it pirate?
- 20:08I don't know, the paragraph, the pair, the headers.
- 20:11Yeah, some of the headers, right?
- 20:12And then, you know, we'll Riff on that.
- 20:13We'll try to get through a lot of it, but anyways, let's get to
- 20:17it. So first header is called
- 20:19exponential growth, hope IAM. What does that mean?
- 20:22Pirate, Well, I mean in this space are in Bitcoin.
- 20:28I hate the word space, but sometimes there's no other word
- 20:30that I can really call it. You know, there's so much hope
- 20:35IAM being sold like that's what every influencer every company
- 20:40they just want you to feel like you're going to 200, you know,
- 20:43200 Grand what, and 1 million dollars, and you see all these
- 20:47people who making these like crazy bullish calls.
- 20:50And I'm sure at some point, we'll get there but I call that
- 20:53exponential opium. And stop.
- 20:55The flow was exactly that and it was a very well, orchestrated
- 20:58effort to push this. This idea of the stock to flow
- 21:06model which we in reality was a misapplication of the stock up
- 21:09stock of the stock to flow they that is been traditionally seen
- 21:13in other markets. And so, when stock the flow, you
- 21:17know, was being peddled on, you know, by all The Usual Suspects,
- 21:21I mean it was almost embarrassing.
- 21:24Being like and and for me, like, I just looked at that, and I'm
- 21:27like, man, like of course, like, I got excited at first, but but
- 21:31I was like, I want to look here here this out.
- 21:33And the more that I heard it out, it just, it really just
- 21:36didn't seem real. Like it just was like, yeah.
- 21:39Okay, that's nice. And then they would, they would
- 21:42pull up these charts or these fancy colorful th arts and be
- 21:45like, look, it's following it perfectly and granted, it was
- 21:48like, it was totally following it.
- 21:50So that just kind of perpetuated the the hype and the And the
- 21:55Hopi. Mm dream.
- 21:55So that exponential hope Ian was just people as they as the price
- 21:59was going up and there was a group of us, a lot of plebs,
- 22:03some some, you know, bigger players in the game, who looked
- 22:08at this and just saw it for what it was.
- 22:09Now there's always going to be, you know, very eloquent
- 22:13bullshitters on both sides and so but for me, I looked at this
- 22:17and I was just like you know, like this is dangerous.
- 22:20Like I've seen this play out before in other other cycles and
- 22:23here we all these people really pushing this stuff you know and
- 22:29and really they're just winging it and guessing it and when
- 22:32everybody gets into that group think mentality and and
- 22:36everybody's just like we're going to 100K we're going to
- 22:38200k because you know this person says so and their graphs
- 22:42are so good and and they're on you know 50 podcast and
- 22:46everybody's just you know that mean even down to one of the big
- 22:51influence where's was showing the dudes hacks and it's like To
- 22:54me, that's exponential opium. And that's what their Shilling.
- 22:58And and I mean of course, if it would have worked out, I would
- 23:02have literally said, okay, I was wrong, but that's my beef.
- 23:06Is it didn't work out, it broke and these people, these people
- 23:11never like backtracked and said, he'll you know what?
- 23:14I was wrong. That was really bad.
- 23:15I got carried away kind of thing and that's kind of what the
- 23:17premise of the article is. Yeah, absolutely.
- 23:19I think you, I think the next part that the next header Is,
- 23:25you know it's a perfect segue for that and actually tweeted
- 23:28this out a couple days ago, the only people that got it, right?
- 23:33Where the people telling you to dollar cost average, but even
- 23:36the people that got it wrong, they still get to keep.
- 23:39They still got to keep their their followers for all that.
- 23:43Right? And the next part is called
- 23:45unethical silence. So I think you touched upon that
- 23:48a little bit pirate, why don't you elaborate Yeah the unethical
- 23:53silence is exactly that like there was a lot of very big
- 23:56accounts that are very well respected who once the model
- 24:01broke, they just kind of like left it.
- 24:03And that silence is is what really was upsetting to me?
- 24:08Because what they don't realize is like, there's a lot of people
- 24:11who are very naive and new to this game and like when you sit
- 24:15there and just consistently shil, you know, this this Hopi.
- 24:20Mmm. Of huge price predictions.
- 24:24It gets in people's heads and people make like purchasing
- 24:28decisions based on it and everybody's an adult and this is
- 24:31the this is the learning part of it, everybody's an adult and so
- 24:34they make their own decisions but it's like it's kind of
- 24:37reminds me of last cycle where you just have like I call them
- 24:42the pied. Pipers they're just playing
- 24:43their little flute marching along and all the all the kitty
- 24:46cats are right behind them marching out of the city but in
- 24:49this case like they literally marching these people off.
- 24:51Off a cliff. Now, if you bought, you know,
- 24:54Bitcoin at a 60 Grand or 50 Grand like and you have the
- 24:58ability to hold it, you know, through this bear cycle.
- 25:02I mean you'll come out on the other side fine but let's be
- 25:05realistic. A lot of people don't have that.
- 25:07A lot of people don't have that time.
- 25:09They need that money at some point.
- 25:11This was like they were just looking to make some cash and so
- 25:15when you know you have price prediction saying 100K 200k like
- 25:20you know, You're just like, oh man, this this model is perfect
- 25:24and you have like, huge accounts like huge accounts, like
- 25:27literally saying like, oh, this is perfect.
- 25:30And these people like these people are heavy players in the
- 25:33game and you know they invest in all the Bitcoin startups.
- 25:37So they you know, people seem to think these people are credible
- 25:41and so they follow what they say and so when all this imploded, I
- 25:46saw various you know, a couple people did admit they were
- 25:51wrong. But what they did was, they also
- 25:52cherry pick the parts that were right and they tried to
- 25:55rationalize it, whereas some people just went dead silent on
- 25:58it and then you have some other ones who tried to explain it
- 26:01away and say, oh yeah, this is just a Black Swan event and this
- 26:05you know, the model would have worked out and it's like, no you
- 26:07can't you can't play it like that man.
- 26:09You were wrong like just own it like it's not it's not even a
- 26:12big deal. That I mean it is a big deal
- 26:14that you're wrong but like I would respect you more if you
- 26:17just like said hey guys I was wrong this just blew up in like
- 26:21I fucked up. You know what I mean?
- 26:23And I learned a valuable lesson from this and we can all learn
- 26:26from this and you just didn't see that.
- 26:28And to this day, I still see people Schilling that stuff and
- 26:33people still saying oh but it was such a great model and all
- 26:36that is is like indoctrination, in my opinion it's the same
- 26:40indoctrination that you see on, you know, political stuff,
- 26:44other, you know, other stuff like covid related stuff.
- 26:47It's the same indoctrination. Like to me, it's like, I see how
- 26:52groupthink is a cancer in the space and so that's what the
- 26:55whole premise of this article was, is to basically call it
- 26:59out. And the most importantly, I've
- 27:01got a group of plebs that are that are finding all the
- 27:04receipts and who are passionate about like these issues.
- 27:08And you know, I used to sit here and write a tweet and a tweet is
- 27:12so small and people just want to be like oh man you need you need
- 27:15to do you need to do more on this and so that's what this is.
- 27:18I finally just expanded on my tweets and And I have a group of
- 27:22people who are helping me find doing all the research for this.
- 27:25And and so I'm not necessarily calling anybody out in
- 27:29particular, I'm basically calling out what happened and
- 27:32then I'm providing the receipts of and you can read it for
- 27:35yourself and anybody with a logical bone in their body, can
- 27:38look through it. Be like, whoa, I never realized
- 27:41that like these people were the circle.
- 27:44Jerk was like this invested together and they had this much
- 27:48power to manipulate the masses. Absolutely.
- 27:51And you know what, I think you really hit the nail on the head
- 27:54pirate and like from the beginning, we've tried to on the
- 27:58show, stay the hell away from any type of speculation and very
- 28:03early on, we were actually blocked by the creator of this
- 28:08whole thing and because we took Cory side, right on the show and
- 28:14Cory was calling out that scam from from very early on, but
- 28:18it's funny and and Reason I'm saying that is to segue into the
- 28:22next point, is that the guy that I think he has, he has like, I
- 28:25think he has like a million followers now on Twitter.
- 28:29He actually started monetizing from all those accounts.
- 28:34Pirate, why don't you touch upon that a little bit?
- 28:37That was kind of one of The Inspirations like, Cory is like,
- 28:41I like Cory because he has actually the stones to actually
- 28:45call out this stuff. And he takes a lot of heat and
- 28:47he called it out. And he did a really good job.
- 28:49He's very sharp guy. A lot of people didn't agree
- 28:52with them and he was right. And, you know, and he he
- 28:57actually posted a tweet showing how that the guy who created
- 29:04this whole thing, you know, he's chilling.
- 29:07The exchange links now and he still like, perpetuating this
- 29:12thing. He's still pushing it.
- 29:13Like he's, he is, he's basically saying oh yeah, you know, it's
- 29:18it's broken but the Black Swan event broke it and I can't,
- 29:22like, I can't even like, I can't even take it seriously because
- 29:27like it was stock to flow. Then it was thought the flow
- 29:29acts when it started to, you know, break down and then like
- 29:33it broke down and like the dude went am IA and now he's back and
- 29:38it's like to me like this is a joke, why isn't it?
- 29:40Why aren't all these like big podcasters?
- 29:42Having him on and calling him out?
- 29:44Like because that's like what real journalism is like hey,
- 29:47what went wrong. It could, it doesn't even have
- 29:48to be nasty. It has just like, like, where is
- 29:52the accountability is what I'm trying to say.
- 29:54And that's what this article is. It's about a An ability.
- 29:56It's like how can you guys just do this and like I guess that's
- 30:00my beef with all this and like I don't like to be Affiliated.
- 30:03I like you guys and I like working with you all because you
- 30:06guys don't make these same mistakes.
- 30:08You guys are more you guys are pleb oriented and and so to me
- 30:12like I'm just a regular person who you know has been stacking
- 30:17Bitcoin for a while and I've been through some Cycles.
- 30:20I know that I know I know a little bit more than I knew last
- 30:25cycle. All I'll say, I don't know at
- 30:27all, but the one thing I do know is I know how to spot bullshit
- 30:30and to me like what I see is the biggest cancer and like the
- 30:34biggest problem in this this. And with this whole thing is the
- 30:39power of the circle jerk. And people think that's like a
- 30:42joke or like, we're just being mean and it's not, it's actually
- 30:46really, really dangerous. Like these people.
- 30:49They literally will get these other people on their podcast
- 30:54and, and then they go on. Free podcast and they push these
- 30:57same narratives and then people react to those narratives and
- 31:01they hype these people up and then they're all just hyping
- 31:04this up, hyping this up, hyping this up and then when people get
- 31:07rekt, these people like they don't do anything.
- 31:10And then when when the people who are Rector upset and start
- 31:13like getting pissed off about it and calling them out, then
- 31:17they're like oh they're mean they're toxic.
- 31:19But it's like fuck you guys. You guys literally freaking
- 31:23drove these people off a cliff and you don't Even have the
- 31:26balls to like, address it and be humble enough to say, hey, like,
- 31:31you know what, we screwed up and or not, I mean, none of them,
- 31:35like, there's maybe a couple of them you kind of did, but even
- 31:38with that, they're like, oh well, it got so many people into
- 31:40Bitcoin like, okay. So you basically are using a
- 31:43broken model that and you're saying it was okay because it
- 31:46got a lot of people into Bitcoin.
- 31:48Off of a broken model. Like how is that logical?
- 31:51Anyway, I hope I made my point, I hope that this article that
- 31:56when people read it they can see see it for what I see it as and
- 32:02and I'm sure that there's some, you know, there's some people
- 32:04who are still holding on to that model, but like I don't care
- 32:07like, if that's where your head's at and you were still
- 32:11like addicted to that opium dream.
- 32:13That's fine. But you don't need that model.
- 32:16Like everything you feel like we know Bitcoin is.
- 32:19Going to go hyperbolic at one point and at the end of the day
- 32:23I'm sorry. Parabolic and hyperbolic it's
- 32:27going to go parabolic and so like you don't need that that,
- 32:31you know, that that model to tell you this.
- 32:34So and what I'm afraid of and mark my word we can just
- 32:38actually remember this from this podcast.
- 32:41I guarantee you as soon as the market starts heating up again
- 32:44The same people are going to be like stack to stop.
- 32:47The flow is back on its back, on its going to be like the
- 32:49Undertaker, you know, how he comes.
- 32:52You resurrects himself like because this is their grift.
- 32:55This is how they get eyeballs. Like, selling hope IAM makes
- 32:59these people money. And so, to me, it's like, so
- 33:03it's very nuanced, but it's so unethical.
- 33:05And it's sad to me that that people are so sheepish and and
- 33:09got so caught up in this. But I don't blame the people who
- 33:11got caught up in it, like they were just they were They were
- 33:15feeling the vibe of freaking Hopi.
- 33:16Mm, yeah. I you know I agree.
- 33:19It's definitely a shame. I think though a lot of people a
- 33:23lot of people that got into this are not going to buy into that.
- 33:26The next time I think I think what you're doing pirate is just
- 33:32so important calling out and you know, to I blamed myself a
- 33:38little bit because a couple days ago, I was one of the part, one
- 33:41of the people that was selling like pirate, like, holy crap.
- 33:44amount of flack that we're going to get from this is is going to
- 33:48be crazy and pirate really had to fuckin slap me across the
- 33:52face over the phone and be like, yo, Do you want to take a
- 33:57principled stance? What are you really in this for?
- 34:00And and you know what, I really agree.
- 34:03I really agree. I think it's I think it's really
- 34:05important to call out this bullshit for what it is, because
- 34:10if nobody does who is right? And a lot of people are really
- 34:14into Bitcoin for the Fiat games rather than the Revolution.
- 34:19And I think that as long as, as long as there isn't principled
- 34:24people in this fight, Don't think it's a fight that we can
- 34:27win. So yeah, man.
- 34:30Good stuff. The article is going to drop
- 34:33this week guys. So definitely you're definitely
- 34:36going to want to check it out. We're going to you know we're
- 34:37obviously going to promote it from from our accounts on
- 34:40Twitter from the simply Bitcoin account.
- 34:42Opti you want to weigh in on this brother?
- 34:45Yeah man first of all I want to give pirate a shout-out for
- 34:49being one of the Godfather pleb. Oh geez.
- 34:52He's been doing this forever and guys, you definitely need to go
- 34:56read. And what he's writing and
- 34:58secondly you guys just gave me the chills man, like so much
- 35:01signal right there. I can't even recap what you guys
- 35:04are saying because it's just the vibe.
- 35:06But today I jokingly put out a tweet in the same vein of like
- 35:12the classic cliché, a a line. Like, you know, I'm an alcoholic
- 35:17and I did. Hello.
- 35:18My name is Optimus field and I fell for the stock to flow hope
- 35:21IAM. So, the joke is guys.
- 35:25Like I am a bullet are You give me some good hope IAM.
- 35:28And of course I'm not going to look into.
- 35:31I'm just like yep. Bitcoins going to the Moon, tell
- 35:33me about it. So I agree.
- 35:36We all probably got caught up in the hype, but I think pirate
- 35:40makes a like, the most poignant point you can of like, look,
- 35:45we're all human. If you mess up acknowledge it
- 35:48and just keep it moving, like, sweeping sweeping your mistakes
- 35:51under. The rug is why people call you
- 35:53out and why your reputation takes a hit.
- 35:56So That's in there guys lesson, but I want to give simply
- 35:59Bitcoin some credit because we have never speculate on this
- 36:03channel. And we have never told you any
- 36:06time where we think the price of Bitcoins going to go.
- 36:09And the reason that we decided upon that very early on is
- 36:13because absolutely no fucking that, no one knows where the
- 36:15fuck is the price of Bitcoin is going to go.
- 36:18So, so tutor, own horn, a little bit, simply Bitcoin got it,
- 36:21right? Because the only thing that we
- 36:23advocate for strongly on the show is What Odell we says stay
- 36:28humble stack SATs. That's really, that's really how
- 36:32you win here. Everything else is a gamble.
- 36:35So yeah. But anyways Opti I got one more
- 36:38thing. I wanted to add real quick.
- 36:40Go ahead, pirate. So real quick I'm nobody
- 36:45special. Like I don't I'm not here to get
- 36:48clout, I'm not here for any of it and so to me like if I upset
- 36:52some people, I just don't care. Like I really don't like I'm not
- 36:56here. To try and shit on anybody.
- 36:58But what I'm trying to do is provide a some signal that's
- 37:03like, from a, from a regular hardworking person who has been
- 37:08manipulated myself in the past, like, previous Cycles.
- 37:12So that's where this comes from number one.
- 37:15Number two, I'm not upset like, I get it like opting, like, you
- 37:22know, I love bullishness myself. Like I just what I was And it
- 37:27says I did not need, I didn't need stock to flow to make me
- 37:31bullish is what I'm trying to say and and so anybody who got
- 37:36sucked in to stop the flow like it's really not your fault but
- 37:40like if you choose not to learn from it and you do it again then
- 37:43it is your fault and you got to realize that like Bitcoin and
- 37:48when you when you start to see exponential growth in something
- 37:50like we just saw on this last you know, bull market, it plays
- 37:54with your emotions. It does it even me?
- 37:56Like it plays with everyone's emotions.
- 37:58So when you start to feel that way, you got to understand that.
- 38:02Like, okay, we are kind of in dangerous territory and so the
- 38:05people that start really just like banging a drum and like
- 38:09almost like it and putting people into a trance almost like
- 38:13and marching them off the cliff. Like I was saying like those
- 38:15people, in my opinion are dangerous.
- 38:17Now, if like I said, if they would have come back and they
- 38:21would have owned it and they would have just like, fessed up.
- 38:25I'm like cool, man. Like we all like, we all Caught
- 38:27up and I respect that so much, but that's the problem.
- 38:30None of them did that. And so when this was all going
- 38:32on when stock the flow like I don't know, there was a few of
- 38:35us like plebs and some big follower accounts who who would,
- 38:39you know, talk smack about it. But like like I I'm kind of a
- 38:43person who likes to joke. So like I just came up with a
- 38:46sack to flow and and that was like that's where I came up with
- 38:49the idea that when my balls tingle like the price goes up
- 38:53and and all I would literally do is like I would just look at I'd
- 38:56really Good news. I look at the market and I'd be
- 38:58like, hey, my balls are tingling and the price would go up and I
- 39:01was right 90% of the time and, and like the stock, the flow
- 39:05people would get so mad. But I would use that to mock
- 39:08them because I thought that was so stupid.
- 39:11Like, I just thought what I just could, I don't know, like, I
- 39:13just could feel that there was something wrong with that model,
- 39:16and then also reading a lot of the people's rebuttals, you
- 39:20know, Cory stop. There's a few others that did
- 39:22really good jobs. I quickly realized that, you
- 39:26know, this This is really just a hope IAM cocktail being sold the
- 39:29people. And so I started speaking out
- 39:31against it and I took so much heat and the other people that
- 39:36were with me, Dieter some other there's some other people that
- 39:39were that took a lot of shit and so this isn't a Victory lap for
- 39:43me. It isn't a Victory lap in any
- 39:45way. It's more about like you
- 39:47motherfuckers were wrong. You have no backbones because
- 39:50you won't admit that you are wrong and because you won't say
- 39:53it's canceled, I'm going to come out and say, you know what,
- 39:55stock the flow. Is officially canceled Opti.
- 39:58It's time for the daily fail brought to you by Swan.
- 40:02Check them out Swan. Bitcoin.com the best way to
- 40:07build your Bitcoin stack. They've got automated Bitcoin
- 40:10savings plans, instant purchases an app that's coming out.
- 40:14It is a stacking platform by fellow plebs.
- 40:18Check it out. The link is down below.
- 40:20All right, what's up guys? You already know.
- 40:22It's Opti. I'm here to take over for Phil
- 40:24today so I'm doing the Male and this weekend, we had an update
- 40:30on a failed that we covered a few weeks ago.
- 40:33So I'm going to cover the beginning of the fail and then
- 40:35I'll give you the update and we'll get into some more stuff.
- 40:38So here's a tweet that we covered last week or two
- 40:41weekends ago. Here's the CL Cohen flex.com.
- 40:44And this is, of course, the whole Roger ver, debacle with
- 40:49coin Flex, this whole thread basically saying that Roger
- 40:53Burrows coin Flex 47 million. Dollars he got liquidated on his
- 40:59trading Martin called, but we went over that a while ago so
- 41:04this weekend we got an update on what happened or at least from
- 41:07the coin flick site. But there's there's there's some
- 41:12signal in here for a complete fail, but I really like this
- 41:15very beginning. I'm sorry, I'm sorry that we're
- 41:19in the situation, it just reminded me of the South Park,
- 41:22you know. I'm sorry.
- 41:26Anyways as Say right here. One of the main reasons for
- 41:28their lack of response in the last two weeks, is that they've
- 41:31been looking for company / Partners to invest in coin flex
- 41:35and have often been under nda's with them.
- 41:38So their AIM now is to be as transparent as possible going
- 41:42forward. So, here we go.
- 41:44How did they get into the situation?
- 41:47So you can see there's been a lot of commentary on social
- 41:49media around the subject. But it's, well, we're
- 41:51summarizing our position on the matter here in this update, they
- 41:55didn't name Roger. Over.
- 41:56But everyone knows that they're talking about Roger ver and ago,
- 41:59a large individual customer had a written manual margin
- 42:03arrangement with coin Flex, unlike normal users, who are
- 42:06automatically liquidated, when their margin ratio goes below,
- 42:09our minimum requirements users on manual margin have a grace
- 42:13period, to send more collateral in support of their position.
- 42:16Prior to it being liquidated, the customers privilege came
- 42:20with the requirement that the customers personal are the
- 42:23customer, personally indemnifies us for shortfalls in His account
- 42:27following the liquidations of his position.
- 42:30It's a very important point right there.
- 42:32Unfortunately, this customer failed to honor his obligations
- 42:36pursuant to his agreements and their lawyers have taken action.
- 42:40So, as we said, the first time we covered this, they estimated
- 42:47that Roger Birds liquidated collateral was around 47 million
- 42:51dollars, and that, that's what he was showing coin flexor for
- 42:56Or /. This contract.
- 42:58Well, over the weekend, they finally fully liquidated this
- 43:03position and it turns out that this liquidation created.
- 43:08As you can see a final desperate deficit of 84 million dollars
- 43:13for this account. So the individual first asked us
- 43:16to liquidate his account but then continue to tell us for
- 43:19some considerable time afterwards that he wanted to
- 43:22send significant funds to The Exchange to take physical
- 43:25delivery of the futures. Shin it is clear to us now that
- 43:28he was wasting time in a hoping for a bounce in the market that
- 43:31never materialized, we tried to liquidate his account in a
- 43:35prudent. Man are using counterparties on
- 43:37the exchange but as the positions were so significant,
- 43:40they involve slippage as any larger series of large orders,
- 43:44would reasonably. Create, guys, remember how many
- 43:48times Nico and Phil have told you on the show about E-liquid
- 43:52shit coins, this is what happens.
- 43:54So, throughout the process we can If the individual fully
- 43:57inform, and he had cooperated with us and promised to pay yada
- 44:02yada, yada, he broke his promise.
- 44:04And so, now they're in arbitration to try to recover,
- 44:0684 million from this individual, having a legal obligation.
- 44:11And remember I said, the important part about personal
- 44:14and Dem indemnify indentification, sorry, Optimus
- 44:20can't read. But anyways, this contract.
- 44:23He has makes Roger ver personally, liable for 84
- 44:27million dollars. So, not only is this a fail for
- 44:31Roger ver, but as you can see right here, it's turning into a
- 44:36complete fail, for corn flakes, as well.
- 44:37So, how are they going to fix this?
- 44:40They're looking to raise significant amount of funds from
- 44:42their investors. It seems like you know get some
- 44:47more money from other people to pay out what you got going on
- 44:50right now. So I don't know what this
- 44:56recovery value USD is, but apparently that's what they're
- 45:01going to use to improve our liquidity guys.
- 45:07This is this is horrible. And I'm not going to go into all
- 45:09this stuff, but if you read this it's just it it's shit coin,
- 45:15things upon shit, coin things and man, Just don't put your
- 45:22money in shake like that. I get frustrated when we talk
- 45:25about this stuff because we tell you guys every single day, about
- 45:29this exact scenario and just stay humble and stacks at, but
- 45:35Just to talk about Roger ver guys.
- 45:38It's interesting to see how fall how far he has fallen the once
- 45:44touted Bitcoin, Jesus, the now Bitcoin Judas.
- 45:47And Matt now potentially, you know, even lower than that guys.
- 45:51And so we don't just tell you guys to stay humble and stacks
- 45:56at for to, you know, push the party line.
- 46:00It's the safest and best way to survive this Bitcoin Market that
- 46:04we're in. And this is Name of the game,
- 46:06guys. It's survival.
- 46:07You do not want to be in this position where you are a once
- 46:12freaking huge mega whale bit coin holder and then you just
- 46:16completely get rekt guys, Bitcoin.
- 46:18Derangement syndrome is real and Roger ver is a great example and
- 46:22Mika. You want to throw some thoughts
- 46:23in here before I move on to our next ones dude.
- 46:27Bro. At like I just I do like I don't
- 46:35is coin Flex, trying to blame it on Roger to deflect on what they
- 46:39are guilty of themselves because Roger basically says no I didn't
- 46:44do that but I wouldn't move it past him either this whole thing
- 46:51though could be avoided if you just take self custody which is
- 46:54what we advocate for so strongly on the show and you'll just
- 46:58avoid all this Mayhem. And this isn't, you know, coin
- 47:01Flex isn't the only one, right? We had, you know, a multitude of
- 47:05exchanges shit coin exchanges and shit coin services that
- 47:09rehypothecation, everyone's funds.
- 47:11They use that to speculate themselves.
- 47:13And then when the bear Market hits they realized they were in
- 47:15problems, you know? No.
- 47:19They don't have enough money to cover their liabilities, right?
- 47:21So, how do you protect yourself from this?
- 47:23Just stay humble and stacks at. So, anyways, let's move on to
- 47:27the next one. What's going on Opti?
- 47:30Okay, so Phil hit me to this article and man, it's just so
- 47:36atrocious, guys. It it's absolutely insane.
- 47:41What shh Corners are doing. So anyways, let me read this
- 47:44headline. It says, by a board eight now
- 47:47and pay later with new service, for E, theorem and FTS, tellers
- 47:52polygamist polygon, based platform will let users make a
- 47:55down payment and take a loan to buy a blue chip you, theorem and
- 47:59of TS. Oh my God.
- 48:02So the polygon Bay's eight now and pay later service support
- 48:08tank notable nft projects at lat 8.
- 48:11Now pay later. Amazing, absolutely amazing.
- 48:15So they're telling you, you know, if you want to buy a board
- 48:188 Yacht Club and its cost a hundred thousand dollars, the
- 48:21best way to do it. Is to put your nft on layaway.
- 48:26I can't even make this stuff up guys.
- 48:28So tellers new end of T buy. Now pay later feature is like
- 48:32those spearheaded by cups and adopted by Major online Realtors
- 48:36albeit with some key differences.
- 48:38Yeah, I wonder what those key differences is.
- 48:41But guys aint. Now pay later.
- 48:43Literally the fail is in is in the name itself.
- 48:45Let alone the this whole layaway or nft.
- 48:51Absolutely amazing but look at let's go.
- 48:54Let's talk about it. Let's talk about it.
- 48:55Let's talk about it. Let's not much.
- 48:58All right. Well dude.
- 49:01What the fuck was that, erisa and FTS?
- 49:07Like, yeah, if you want to know why all those platforms have
- 49:12blown up, there you go. Like it's shit coin upon shit
- 49:16coin, upon trick coin, collateral.
- 49:18Listen, collateral is only good if the collaterals worth
- 49:21something, right? If it's worth noting, that's
- 49:23literally a recipe for disaster, total freaking clown show, I
- 49:29think this is not going to Around.
- 49:31I don't think any of these are going to be around next cycle.
- 49:33I'm calling it right now. I think there are the ico's of
- 49:37the twenty twenty Twenty One bull market.
- 49:40I think I think I think you will look past this and just be like
- 49:45those were definitely the ico's not to mention the regulations
- 49:49that that I was talking about near the beginning of the show,
- 49:52right? So yeah I think this stuff will
- 49:54be gone stick to bitcoin but anyways Opti it's time for the
- 49:58daily meme review brought to you By Citadel 21, they make the
- 50:02best Bitcoin cultural Xena stories articles Comics by
- 50:05actual bitcoiners is artwork for volume. 10 is artwork for volume
- 50:0811 and this is artwork for volume to Volume 2 is almost
- 50:11sold out because there's only 1000 physical copies made per
- 50:14volume. So here your prints of Citadel
- 50:1621 today before they run out. All right guys, the first name
- 50:20here is my Lina see Chey and you guys know she's been killing it.
- 50:24All these memes that she creates by hand are absolutely awesome
- 50:28and we've been saying for a while.
- 50:30As you guys see The top bear markets are for building and
- 50:33she's got this really cool me and right here and it's based in
- 50:36Bitcoin Beach. So, here's the bull market,
- 50:40there's a, there's a chart about global adoption.
- 50:43Everyone's bullish, it's looking really sunny, it's warm, the
- 50:46price is going up, there's exchanges and lending houses,
- 50:51and everyone's looking cool in the Sun.
- 50:54And then the crash comes and Global adoption signs broken on
- 50:59the ground and a six. Are on fire in the exchanges
- 51:02buildings are broken, their signs are destroyed and then the
- 51:07bear Market comes and they're building it back up and they're
- 51:10happy and they're building for the bitcoiners built in the bear
- 51:13market and then the bull market comes and look at this, Bitcoin
- 51:17Beach is a break in future Utopia over here with Crazy
- 51:22bubble places. I don't even know what it is.
- 51:25Ha ha, ha be cool bull market. Let's go some help.
- 51:29You Here we go, guys, I forget who this guy is, but this is a
- 51:34classic mean template. And honestly it weaves in
- 51:38perfectly with what we said in the numbers and we didn't even
- 51:42organize, this is just how it works.
- 51:44So it goes sustained. Oh wait.
- 51:47Actually before I do that it was a response tool in Alden and
- 51:52like Nico. He says the power of means to
- 51:54condense information and here we are Lynn.
- 51:58Alden does like you know for tweets of Whatever like seventy
- 52:02five hundred words or some some crazy stuff and someone drops a
- 52:05mean, sustained High Energy. Prices are destabilizing the
- 52:09fabric of society and very few people seem to notice anyways.
- 52:13Have a great weekend, everyone. And then one by Rasmus course,
- 52:20we're going to add some Rothman stuff in here and it's the the
- 52:25MPC the freakin destroyed NPC and the girlfriend named and It
- 52:30Go. It's no, the end, it's the IRS,
- 52:33the girl is the IRS. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 52:36Then this guy is like okay, okay, okay, he's see.
- 52:39So yeah, the the girlfriend is Iris and goes babe it's the end
- 52:43of the year time to give me more than 40 percent of your earnings
- 52:46or I will throw you in a cage and then to demoralize MPC yes
- 52:49honey extortion is okay because you will build roads and help
- 52:53the poor. We live in a civilized society
- 52:55now I just want to preface that go back.
- 52:57That everyone pay your taxes but We still believe that man.
- 53:03What the fuck, you know like yeah you know how we have rights
- 53:06to criticize, how this how the system works.
- 53:09And it's just absolutely crazy that you know in the in the
- 53:12higher tax practice, it specifically it's 39 point point
- 53:16five percent if you live in a zero income tax like Florida,
- 53:20but if you live in New York and California, holy crap, it's even
- 53:24more. What do you get for that in
- 53:26return? Seriously, what do you get for
- 53:28that in return, right? I just wanted to point Output
- 53:31still color within the lines. I just want to emphasize that
- 53:34you get the road to Nico. Come on my road and then this
- 53:40one by at the BTC therapist, the classic take of the
- 53:45dunning-kruger effect but path to bitcoin maximalism.
- 53:49Where the y axis is confidence to x axis is competent.
- 53:53And this is just a journey of every new Bitcoin.
- 53:55ER you come in your super high and mighty and crypto land.
- 54:00And When you crash and you realize you don't know anything,
- 54:03you discover Bitcoin, you start self-educating you buy Bitcoin
- 54:06your heart and through the bear Market, your teaching Bitcoin,
- 54:10and the end of the road is always being a Bitcoin
- 54:13maximalist Guru. And then this one, hold on, let
- 54:18me, let me recap this, this one is hilarious.
- 54:21Because as we always tell you guys just DCA, it's the way.
- 54:25Why are you guys trying to trade just buy Bitcoin every single
- 54:28day? Anyways, this was His by Alan,
- 54:31do you w? And it goes trying to time tops
- 54:34and bottoms trading Bitcoin. And this is what we tell you
- 55:08guys all the time. This is this is a Bitcoin
- 55:11maximalist Journey. Nutshell and it's years of hard
- 55:15work, stacking said this guy's blue collar, worker, and then
- 55:19hours and hours of research. Like he's smoking cigarettes,
- 55:22all tired late night after work trying to learn about Bitcoin.
- 55:27And then of course, where, you know, bitcoiners we're not
- 55:30buying Lambos or driving cars that are older than Bitcoin.
- 55:34In our literal empty houses because we're minimalist because
- 55:38we need to stack more Sach and we sacrifice all this stuff for
- 55:42Or sad for the future cell and then freaking MPC bro comes
- 55:47around. And says, you got lucky, bro and
- 55:50Bitcoin starts pumping and we have Pepe one punch man, like
- 55:53yeah, shut up like, get out of here guys.
- 55:56Again, you deserve this guy's if you hot oil in the bear Market,
- 56:02through all the people hating on, you calling, you an idiot,
- 56:06all the Fudd and you continue to double down your education.
- 56:10This is the feeling that you have at the End of the journey.
- 56:13When you kind of, you know, everyone gets that like, okay, A
- 56:17little I told you so. So one punch, Pepe one punch
- 56:21Pepe, that's right, that's right.
