- 0:45the case that Finance us doesn't have any Bitcoin act.
- 0:50In fact, they send it to their international branch for that
- 0:54was really fascinating and kind of connect this with how FTX did
- 1:00their thing, right? FTX, you know, they weren't
- 1:03registered in the united states allow US citizens for one
- 1:08specific exchange. They, you know, they registered
- 1:14in the Thomas, right? So it's most likely to attempt 2
- 1:19attempt to, you know, evade us regulations.
- 1:22We also have the news that came out the same week, I might add
- 1:26that SPF was arrested that the doj was potentially
- 1:31investigating Finance, 444 skirting AML, and kyc
- 1:37regulation. So we're going to get into all
- 1:39the details of that we brought all the receipts like we usually
- 1:42do also, Very strong response by Cynthia lummis.
- 1:46And she was responding to the bill that was introduced last
- 1:50week by Senator Marshall, and Senator Elizabeth Warren, that
- 1:54would basically outright ban Bitcoin, not directly and say
- 1:58they're going to ban Bitcoin, but it would force open source
- 2:01developers to register with the government.
- 2:03And basically, ask the government for permission to
- 2:07write code, which is like the most anti-American thing that
- 2:11you can imagine. So we get, we're going to play
- 2:14that for. You guys crazy, crazy, crazy day

- 2:40culture. I think it was Darth coin that
- 2:43hip does to a mess. Image and our simply Bitcoin
- 2:46Telegram and this is the one that hits close to heart.
- 2:51So there's still a bunch of scammers out there guys.
- 2:53Be aware and will cover it completely in the culture today
- 2:57not only are the scammers running exchanges but the
- 3:00scammers are running telegram groups and, you know,
- 3:03impersonating people. So I'll tell you my little back
- 3:06story and we'll go into what happened over the weekend and
- 3:09how to protect yourself. How are ya?
- 3:11Alright everybody, let's start the show.
- 3:14We have a lot to cover. I'm really pumped.
- 3:18The Bitcoin numbers brought to you by novel.
- 3:22At this point, you should be running your own Bitcoin note.
- 3:25If you don't use your own Bitcoin know you're trusting,
- 3:27someone else's run your own version of Bitcoin core.
- 3:30The lightning Network, whirlpool, and Dojo all from the
- 3:33comfort of your own home. And if your digital Nomad, you
- 3:37have absolutely no excuse because now you can run a novel
- 3:40through a virtual private server.
- 3:42Visit not L.E you today, All right, everybody at the time of
- 3:46recording the Bitcoin price is 16,000 602.
- 3:49SATs per dollar 6023 block height, 760 8104, reachable
- 3:55Bitcoin nodes, 14850 two blocks of The Happening 70 1896 having
- 4:01estimate April 25th 2024. Total lightning network
- 4:04capacity. 5143, Bitcoin capacity value. 85 million u.s. dollars
- 4:11realized monetary inflation Bitcoin.
- 4:14Use to take government currency State currencies to Absolute
- 4:18School. Bitcoin has the best incentives,
- 4:221.7 6% in the market capitalization of Bitcoin, is
- 4:26that 319 billion dollars in the grand scheme of things.
- 4:30Bitcoin is still a baby anyways. Anyways so I want to put you
- 4:35guys this clip of Cynthia lummis.
- 4:38Basically hitting back hitting back saying listen, listen to
- 4:41FTX debacle, had nothing to do with Bitcoin.
- 4:44Guys are using that as an excuse to justify this tyrannical.
- 4:49Legislation that there that Elizabeth, Warren and Senator
- 4:52Marshall are trying to push through.
- 4:54So, I'm glad we had the Bitcoin Senator on our side, fighting
- 4:58the good fight. I want to say one last thing
- 5:00about this regulation that they introduced, this regulation
- 5:03would have not stopped and it would have not protected
- 5:09investors in the FTX debacle. They're using this as a
- 5:13justification to go after Bitcoin because Bitcoin ends the
- 5:18party. If people have an alternative to
- 5:21State money and that alternative provides better incentives.
- 5:25People are naturally going to opt out and if people naturally
- 5:29opt-out it ends the Racket. And what is the racket?
- 5:33The racket is that the government the Tate has this
- 5:37privilege of being able to create money for free that
- 5:40everybody else has to work for and people.
- 5:46Thanks for the Super Chat. I have to.
- 5:48I'm sorry guys. This is part of the rules.
- 5:51Vic says Super Chat, five dollars just found out my wife,
- 5:54slept with Nico and Opti I'm devastated, but not going to
- 5:57lie. I still watch simply because
- 6:21we were asked to enable the YouTube super chats and we said
- 6:26that every time someone gave us a Super Chat, we would stop what
- 6:29we're doing and we would read the chat and I'm starting to
- 6:33believe that might have not been a bad idea, a great idea, but
- 6:37goddamn it vague. I was on a roll bro.
- 6:40Okay. No, you ruined it, okay, time to
- 6:43play the video and then we'll talk about it.
- 6:45God damn it Vic. We're conflating topics today.
- 6:52Digital assets are not on trial fraud, and organizations are on
- 6:59trial. So, let's separate digital
- 7:04assets from corrupt organizations.
- 7:09Ft x as I've been saying for the last few weeks is good.
- 7:13Old-fashioned fraud and what they did is separate from
- 7:17digital assets. Now, we've all heard that FTX
- 7:21lent, its Executives hundreds of millions of dollars in
- 7:25commingled customer funds, for personal use and customers who
- 7:29tried to wire money to FTX where instead given Alameda is routing
- 7:35number. That is fraud, that's fraud
- 7:38whether it's conducted in u.s. dollars or Euros or digital
- 7:45assets that is fraud. Yeah.
- 7:48And the Bitcoin, Senator Cynthia lummis, and you know what, you
- 7:52know what, though she is a Bitcoin.
- 7:55She said digital assets That does not leave a good taste in
- 8:00my mouth so hey, you know, I guess Beggars.
- 8:05Can't be choosers. It's something I think she is
- 8:08fighting back. She's calling it for what it is.
- 8:12And look what FTX did is exactly what the bankers in 2008.
- 8:16Did it's exactly what Stanford did is exactly what Bernie
- 8:19Madoff did. What does it have to do with
- 8:21Bitcoin? It doesn't have to do with
- 8:23Bitcoin. Like but holy cow.
- 8:25Does it create a great excuse me?
- 8:27Remember guys, don't be distracted.
- 8:30They use the same excuse to go after the open source developer
- 8:36of tornado cash, right? Which led inevitably to because
- 8:40etherium is centralized it led to 60 to 70% of the etherium
- 8:44validators today. Are actively censoring for the
- 8:48office of foreign assets control, part of the US
- 8:50Treasury, right? And what was the justification
- 8:53that justification was that 10%? Of the tornado.
- 8:57Cash software was being used supposedly to launder money for
- 9:04the North Koreans right? So, Don't get distracted by the
- 9:10strawman governments have a tendency of doing that.
- 9:13Remember in The Help, The Help Americans act?
- 9:18I'm I don't know. The, I don't know exactly what
- 9:22the axe name was perhaps. Someone could help me in the
- 9:25chat. They use that act, right?
- 9:27Look at the wording of the ACT. They use that act to basically
- 9:32install a rule where now you have to report $600.
- 9:37Out of every transaction. If it's over $600, it has to be
- 9:41reported to the IRS and then in the Patriot Act Right?
- 9:45Literally called the Patriot Act, it took away a tremendous
- 9:49amount of privacy and freedoms from Americans of which we never
- 9:53got back and the Act was called the Patriot Act in the inflation
- 9:57reduction act, right? What did they do?
- 10:01They spent more money. More deficit spending which
- 10:03fuels inflation, right? So don't get distracted.
- 10:07It by the straw man and Elizabeth Warren is an
- 10:11opportunist opportunities and she used what happened with FTX
- 10:16to go after Bitcoin, not to protect investors.
- 10:21Not to protect the little guy. That's the excuse.
- 10:24That's the justification. It was because Bitcoin is a
- 10:28threat to their Racket. And the racket is they have the
- 10:33privilege to be able to create money for free that a Citizens
- 10:37us. Peasants have to work for right
- 10:40and Bitcoin provides a strong alternative to that, which has
- 10:44much better incentives. And they know that if it was a
- 10:48Fair competition, they know that it was a Fair competition
- 10:52Bitcoin would annihilate the competition.
- 10:56That's why they can make it fair.
- 10:58That's why they're using the government's Monopoly on
- 11:01violence. And the government's ability to
- 11:05coerce in an attempt to at least slow down the adoption.
- 11:12And that's exactly what it was. But thank God.
- 11:15We have people on our side of the aisle that are fighting the
- 11:18good fight and calling out Elizabeth Warren for the fraud
- 11:23that she is for the lies and the Miss representations.
- 11:27And that's exactly what the Bitcoin Senator did last week's
- 11:32hearings. So don't have any Heroes and
- 11:34Bitcoin completely agree to that, but shout out to Cynthia,
- 11:38lummis, she did her job there. Anyways.
- 11:40Opti, what are your thoughts? Well just to Echo, kind of what
- 11:44you said. We've said it on the show a lot
- 11:46that the FTX debacle and the similar things that we've seen
- 11:51all year are going to be used as low-hanging fruit.
- 11:53We I mean, I've joke in the past that we don't even have to read
- 11:57or even listen to most of the Fudd and the skepticism and
- 12:02criticism against Bitcoin, because they are usually using
- 12:05the same as I like to call it low hanging fruit excuses, that
- 12:08we're all criminals, that we're fostering money launderers, and
- 12:12Terrorists and the like and you know I really do enjoy lummis
- 12:17making a distinction between Bitcoin and shit coin because
- 12:20there is a difference and I like how she put it.
- 12:22You know, ft x is good old-fashioned fraud by
- 12:24commingling their funds. Like you can't get much clearer
- 12:27than this but this is something that we've touched on last week
- 12:30when you know, I know opt he's using big words but when we
- 12:34discussed the hegelian dialectic create a problem so you can
- 12:37offer the solution and it's becoming clear to me that this
- 12:41is exactly Politicians and Central bankers and you know the
- 12:45people making cover over at Legacy Media are doing they at
- 12:48one point made SBF be, the Wonder kid of something.
- 12:52Someone doing something important in the quote unquote
- 12:54crypto space And now since they got caught since it blew up in
- 12:58their face. So so eloquently, they are now
- 13:01using it as an excuse to try to regulate Bitcoin, to try to
- 13:05regulate the whole Space. Because as we continuously tell
- 13:08you guys on the show, they're afraid of Bitcoin because they
- 13:11understand exactly. Exactly what Bitcoin will do to
- 13:14them and to the Fiat standard that we live under.
- 13:17I mean, remember what Christine Lagarde said in the past and we
- 13:20continuously use that quote, if there's an exit route, people
- 13:24will use it. So these people aren't dumb, you
- 13:27know, we can say all you want about Elizabeth Warren, making
- 13:30her noise and making her rounds and other politicians making the
- 13:33round. But I'm fully convinced that
- 13:35they are not in the need of Education, they are fearful and
- 13:40this is why they try to Out and paint Bitcoin in such a way so
- 13:44that they can win the hearts and minds of the masses out there
- 13:48and confuse them again. They know that the majority of
- 13:51people don't understand Bitcoin and so if they can get him in
- 13:54front of it, with these clickbait headlines, then they
- 13:57can try to control the narrative again, they have the Monopoly on
- 14:01truth and so all they can do right now is try to paint
- 14:05Bitcoin in such a way so that they scare people away from
- 14:07Bitcoin and I'm just like Mica said, I'm glad that there's
- 14:11people out there. That understand Bitcoin as we
- 14:14understand, I mean, to what extent, you know, she did use
- 14:17the digital asset framework or the meme, but I think that in
- 14:23time we will get more people understanding Bitcoin, like we
- 14:26understand. And this is kind of something
- 14:29that Nico and I have been pushing for a while.
- 14:32You know, we are in the race to avoid the war and the more
- 14:35people that understand Bitcoin, the more people that are holding
- 14:38Bitcoin the easier it is for us to win and we will win.
- 14:42And it's just a matter of time, and it's a matter of making it
- 14:45through all these obstacles and, and land mines out there because
- 14:49they do not want us to succeed. So, someone just said you give
- 14:53them far too much credit. Yes.
- 14:55I understand some of the politicians and Central Bankers,
- 14:57do not understand Bitcoin, but I think as my favorite politician,
- 15:02Brad, Sherman would say, I think he fully understands the client
- 15:06and I think it is one of those moments of what's the mean like,
- 15:12You can't, you can't expect someone whose job it is to not
- 15:15understand something to understand it.
- 15:17And I think some of the people out there that are a part of the
- 15:20banking system fully understand Bitcoin and they're doing their
- 15:23best to, you know, explain Bitcoin in such a way, so that
- 15:29they Gaslight the masses out there, so that they do not find
- 15:32that exit door just my two cents.
- 15:35Absolutely. 100% a I see her, I see someone saying clickbait.
- 15:38Nah man, we're going to talk about it during the new segment
- 15:40we got you. This is the Numbers man, these
- 15:43the numbers the number segment, we usually react to videos if
- 15:46you're new to the channel, that's how it works, right?

- 16:37Would you be able to handle it? If somebody asks you for two
- 16:39point 1 billion dollars back. Would that be okay?
- 16:42Would you be able to still withstand things?
- 16:45We're financially okay, including, why can't he just say
- 16:51yes? Why can he say yes, what is
- 16:54going on with Finance? Of course guys, you guys know,
- 16:58we are a Bitcoin Maxi show so what we 84 is don't shit coin.
- 17:03It's bad for you. Shout out, Jacob.
- 17:05We advertise. Do we advertise now?
- 17:08We advocate for dollar cost, averaging staying humble, stack,
- 17:12and SATs, and if you've been doing that, none of this will
- 17:16have affected you. But I think it really
- 17:18highlights, you know the shit going Nuri coming from these
- 17:21shit coin exchange. I think that interview that that
- 17:24CZ did on on mainstream media where they asked him a very
- 17:28direct question. Hey, if you know, It could, you
- 17:32could you honor, the could you honor these withdrawal?
- 17:34He's straight up. Just like like, yeah, we gotta
- 17:37figure it out which I thought was very interesting anyway.
- 17:40So let's get through some of the receipts.
- 17:42Shall we buy Nancy's, the largest outflow of stable coins
- 17:46in 24 hours while by Nance has recently gone through an
- 17:49outpouring of stable coins and Ensign estimate, it still holds
- 17:53about 30 billion dollars worth of stable coin.
- 17:55So we're seeing record amount of outflows, people are spooked the
- 17:59see, the rumors also, This is the memo that the by Nancy.
- 18:04Oh, sent to the staffers. Let's check out some of his
- 18:07wording, shall? We, it's not that long, but I
- 18:10think it's important to to check out.
- 18:12So he sent this all to his staff, you may have seen some of
- 18:15the latest news regarding Finance, The Fallout from the
- 18:17FTX implosion has brought has brought with it a lot of extra
- 18:21scrutiny and tough questions. The good news is that even
- 18:24though the news stories, don't always reflect it, we can
- 18:27answer. The tough questions, throw
- 18:29thrown out our business, okay? I want you to keep that in mind.
- 18:34We want to be transparent, we want to set the golden standard
- 18:37for reliability solidness in the space, right?
- 18:40Would you be able to handle it? If somebody asks you for two
- 18:42point 1 billion dollars back. Would that be okay?
- 18:44Would you be able to still withstand things?
- 18:47We're financially? Okay.
- 18:49Yeah, that doesn't sound like a good response.
- 18:52I'll read it again. The good news is that even
- 18:54though the new stories don't always reflect it.
- 18:56We can answer the tough tough question, thrown out of
- 18:58business. Oh man, I disagree.
- 19:01For example, I mean, it's not even that disagree, you Hurt
- 19:04himself. You guys heard from the man
- 19:06himself for example. Despite today's news regarding
- 19:09withdraws, we are in a strong financial position.
- 19:12We often process more than 1 billion in deposits or
- 19:15withdrawals on a daily basis. Nothing unusual today, use your
- 19:18assets and finance are all backed 121 and finances.
- 19:21Capital structure is debt-free. We maintain hot wallet.
- 19:24Balances to ensure that we always have more than enough
- 19:27funds to fulfill withdrawal request and we top a pot wallet
- 19:30balances accordingly with regard to contemporary halt.
- 19:34Out of which draws of USD, see because we Auto convert US DC to
- 19:38be USD in order to retain large liquidity, larger liquidity
- 19:41pools, we generally regain USD, see deposits, or future
- 19:45withdrawals. In today's case, many people
- 19:47deposited be USD or USD T to withdraw us.
- 19:51DC when this happens, we need to convert our current conversion
- 19:54channels are clinically. We have to go through a bank and
- 19:57New York and USD which is slow. We won't prove this going
- 20:00forward, all that going on. We know that we are.
- 20:04Doric moment in crypto, rest assured, this organization was
- 20:07built to last as long as we continue to offer users.
- 20:10The best product user experience and frictionless, trading
- 20:12environment, Financial survive, any crypto winter, while we
- 20:16expect the never over the next six months.
- 20:18The next several months to be bumpy, we will get past this
- 20:21challenging period and will be stronger for having been through
- 20:24it. As always, I'm grateful to each
- 20:26one. Each of you for your incredible
- 20:28dedication and hard work and I'm proud of the incredible business
- 20:31we've built together. Okay, so we kind of know already
- 20:36in the beginning, kind of bullshit.
- 20:37We played you guys the clip, literally to make the case for
- 20:40that. Now, Cory Clips in, shout out,
- 20:42shout out to him CEO of swan. Bitcoin Finance, u.s. does not
- 20:47have your money. It turns out it probably exists
- 20:50but it's held by by Nance International which is of course
- 20:53an illegal run around of u.s. regulations.
- 20:56Walls closing in on cz's, on Cece's Casino boy, great
- 21:01reporting by Reuters. Now let's check out the article
- 21:03that Corey was Referring to. Felt is by Nance dot u.
- 21:07S-- a fake exchange billions and customer funds transfer digit
- 21:11directly from Finance, u.s. to Offshore Finance exchange.
- 21:15Is this just a ploy to trick Regulators in the final days of
- 21:19the FTX collapse on Lookers, wondered about the solvency of
- 21:22FTX US based exchange. FTX u.s.
- 21:25FTX us was on stairs stairs ostensibly held at arm's length
- 21:31from the parent exchange. FTX leadership insisted that
- 21:34customers. Of the FTX u.s. division would
- 21:37be safe, even if the parent company went under, however,
- 21:40when the end came for FTX u.s. met the same fate freezing
- 21:44customer withdraws and entering chapter 11 with the rest of the
- 21:48FTX Almeida Network, despite despite being u.s. regulated and
- 21:52theoretically, walled off from ft x ft x us was in really
- 21:57little more than an extension of its offshore owner.
- 22:01One might think that perhaps FTX us was really just a ploy to
- 22:04trick. Us Regulators into focusing on
- 22:07the smaller American company instead of turning attention to
- 22:10the incoming Financial hurricane in the Bahamas.
- 22:13It turns out that FTX was not the only offshore exchange to
- 22:17create a US base in the regulated entity by Nance.
- 22:20The world's largest exchange created by Nance dot u.s. in
- 22:23early 2019 in response to regulatory pressure Finance.
- 22:27Dot, U, s-- is described as a separate entity from finance
- 22:30that was merely licensing. The name and certain features
- 22:33from the main company Finance. . US based in Palo Alto is license
- 22:37as a money service business in the United States note that it
- 22:41is not difficult to obtain these licenses.
- 22:43As we have previously shown in our expose of a network of fake
- 22:46crypto exchanges based in Colorado.
- 22:49However, shortly after the creation of binary and start
- 22:52u.s. Forbes Magazine publisher report
- 22:54claiming that they had received a leaked document where referred
- 22:57to as the Tai Chi document. According to the document, the
- 23:01by Nance u.s. exchange was a ploy to trick us regulators.
- 23:05A focusing on the compliant local exchange while the parent
- 23:08exchange went free to do its own business finance responded by
- 23:12suing Forbes for defamation only to drop the lawsuit.
- 23:15A few months later in February of this year by Nance tried a
- 23:19different trick. They invested two hundred
- 23:21million dollars in Forbes parent company if you can't beat them
- 23:26by them. And remember, guys, the block
- 23:29publication was also bought and paid for which was leaked, it
- 23:33was bought and paid for By, who ft x.
- 23:36So it looks like this is a common practice, right?
- 23:39You can't sue them into shutting up, let's buy them.
- 23:43And then, you know, the the they're not incentivized to
- 23:47speaking truth and like something something really
- 23:50interesting. Right?
- 23:51Like again, I'm gonna play I'm gonna play you this clip once
- 23:56again. Want to be transparent.
- 24:01We want to set the golden standard for reliability
- 24:03solidness in the Spectrum. Would you be able to handle it?
- 24:06If somebody asks you for two point 1 billion dollars back.
- 24:09Would that be okay? Would you be able to still with
- 24:11standard things? We're financially?
- 24:13Okay, so didn't answer the question.
- 24:16He said that they want to be the golden standard, right?
- 24:19They want you know, they want to be the standard for
- 24:22transparency. But then they're also suing
- 24:25Publications that are doing reporting on them expose is on
- 24:31them, so I don't know, guys, you tell me, it sounds sounds
- 24:36interesting. However, this reporting by
- 24:39Forbes was corroborated by much. By much more detailed report by
- 24:44Reuters in October 20, 22 with more sources and documents at
- 24:48their disposal, Reuters found essentially what the Forbes
- 24:51piece 3 years earlier suggested by now.
- 24:53Ants us was designed to trick regulators and US customers.
- 24:57It shows that in 28 hours. Also also known as CZ approved a
- 25:01plan by loot, by lieutenants to insulate, by Nance from
- 25:04scrutiny, by u.s. regular authorities by setting up a new
- 25:07American Exchange. The new exchange would draw
- 25:10Regulators attention away from the main platform by serving as
- 25:13a regulatory inquiry Clearinghouse.
- 25:16According to the proposal Executives went on to set the
- 25:19plan in motion company messages show in public Zhou said, The
- 25:23new u.s. exchange called by Nance dot U.
- 25:26S-- was a fully independent entity in realities out
- 25:29controlled by Nance dot U. S-- directing its management
- 25:32from abroad according to regulatory Finance filings from
- 25:352020, a company messages and interviews with former team
- 25:39members and advisor in a message to finance.
- 25:41Executive described The u.s. Exchange as a de facto
- 25:45substitute a subsidiary. So I mean I don't know, like How
- 25:57much we have to prove to you guys how much we have to tell
- 26:01you guys, not your keys, not your Bitcoin.
- 26:07And another thing which is really interesting is that why
- 26:11is it that the shit coin exchanges?
- 26:15The, the fat not all of them, of course, but the two main ones,
- 26:19whether it's FTX, whether it's easy, it's all lies and
- 26:23misrepresentations man, CZ could not answer.
- 26:26A very basic question and he and it's all marketing like we want
- 26:30to be the most transparent exchange when they asked him.
- 26:32Like, could you honor that withdraw?
- 26:35Yeah, maybe. And then also, if you want to be
- 26:38the most transparent, you're kind of doing this stuff behind
- 26:42everybody's back so like I just It's not surprising to me, but I
- 26:52think the overall message of this is again is is the the
- 26:56gambling for the shit coins, right?
- 27:00Then it is gambling which means that, you know, sometimes you're
- 27:03going to flip a coin and you're going to get that side, right?
- 27:05But Opti and I and most bitcoiners that could tell you
- 27:09you shit coin and 99% of the time you will end up with less
- 27:14Bitcoin than you had before. So is it worth it?
- 27:18Is it Worth having that exposure and remember how they phrased it
- 27:23in that article. Finance dot us was to give the
- 27:27appearance, not only to Regulators but also American
- 27:30citizens, that hey, you're safe here, you're protected by u.s.
- 27:35regulations but what FDX showed is that even though it was
- 27:40technically a separate company and in the beginning they said
- 27:43that says SPF said that F DX dot U s-- was had Money.
- 27:49Right? It all ended up to be a lie.
- 27:52So by Nance dot us has no Bitcoin.
- 27:56As soon as it's deposited to buy Nance dot u s.
- 27:59It sent to buy Nance International where it's
- 28:02completely out of the hands or out of the touch of us
- 28:06regulators. And mind you, I'm not a fan of
- 28:09bigger government. I'm not a not, if I'm a bit
- 28:11corner, I'm not a fan of bigger government.
- 28:13I'm not a fan of bigger bureaucracy.
- 28:16I'm trying to make the case for you guys.
- 28:20To stay away from shit coins because they're bad for you.
- 28:23Stay humble Stacks at buy Bitcoin.
- 28:28Earn Bitcoin mine Bitcoin. Take that Bitcoin into self
- 28:32custody because you have no idea what they're doing behind the
- 28:37curtain. You have no idea the facade
- 28:41Finance dot. U s-- are you really you really
- 28:44putting your faith? In those in the swamp of
- 28:49Washington DC to protect you via regulations because those
- 28:54regulations didn't help. But shit in 2008 US Millennials,
- 28:58bro, we got fucked to be honest, we got fucked, they protect us
- 29:03then only one Banker went to jail and you're still wanting to
- 29:08put your trust in these people. Don't trust their fi.
- 29:15Take Bitcoin into self custody, learn how to run your own node.
- 29:19If you don't know if you don't want to build one you could buy
- 29:21one not our sponsor freaking make great nodes buy Bitcoin
- 29:27earn Bitcoin mine Bitcoin. Take that Bitcoin into self
- 29:29custody forget about it, literally right down the seed
- 29:33phrase and you could be watching while this whole thing implodes.
- 29:37Maybe by Nance implodes, I have no idea.
- 29:39Maybe it explodes. No idea.
- 29:41But as a bit corner you will be watching from the sidelines with
- 29:45your popcorn saying, huh, I can get cheaper Bitcoin now because
- 29:50of this disaster that they caused and in everybody's going
- 29:53to be freaking out like, bro, I left my left, my, my Bitcoin on
- 29:57the exchange because I was trying to trade and I was trying
- 30:00to increase my position. There is this fund by Travis
- 30:04cling super reputable, it's called akagi Completely went
- 30:09over under. Why?
- 30:11Because he kept the majority of the assets that belong to the
- 30:16fund on FTX and remember FTX had all the bells and whistles they
- 30:22had Tom Brady that had mr. Wonderful you know who by Nance
- 30:25just signed as a spokespeople Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel
- 30:30Messi Sounds very similar, doesn't it right?
- 30:34So don't trust verify Finance dot.
- 30:37U.s. does not have your Bitcoin. It's with the international
- 30:41organization because it's out of the hands of The Regulators.
- 30:45You saw it in the leaked documents yourself.
- 30:47You saw how by Nance? First tried to sue for
- 30:50defamation, when that didn't work, they try to by Forbes
- 30:55themselves so that they wouldn't say anything.
- 30:58Like the writing is on the wall and then this sack Of shit goes
- 31:02on TV and tells you this. I'm going to play it one more
- 31:05time, that's right. Want to be transparent, we want
- 31:09to set the golden standard for reliability solidness in the
- 31:13space, right? Would you be able to handle it?
- 31:15If somebody asks you for two point 1 billion dollars back,
- 31:17would that be okay? Would you be able to still
- 31:19withstand two things we're financially?
- 31:22Okay, including you have two point 1 billion dollars to give
- 31:25away if somebody came to reclaim to Cloud that back you'd still
- 31:28be fine. Whatever, lawyers handling are
- 31:31fine. We are financially strong.
- 31:33Well, let the lawyers handle it. So look I'll let you guys be the
- 31:43judge. I made my case Opti.
- 31:45What do you think? Well, excuse me.
- 31:50I think the the meme in mind. Nothing is more official than
- 31:54the official denial come to top of mine and just, you know, Just
- 32:02seeing everything that sees he's doing obviously, we don't have
- 32:09the full inside of what is actually going on with the
- 32:11company, but just by the things he's saying and seemingly doing
- 32:16it almost verbatim and identical to what happened when the FTX
- 32:21explosion happened and I've said it before on the show, it's very
- 32:24interesting that bindings knew exactly which strings to pull in
- 32:27the FTX collapse. It's almost like they have
- 32:29intimate, knowledge of the workings.
- 32:32The company because they're probably doing it themselves.
- 32:34So, funds not saw Foo. And again, guys, this is just
- 32:37this just further to the idea that we tell you guys all the
- 32:41time exchanges are not wallets. Do not keep Bitcoin on these
- 32:44exchanges, especially shit coin casinos.
- 32:46Because we understand how these companies make their money.
- 32:50It is either by trading fees or, by rehypothecation your Bitcoin.
- 32:54So if you want to take that chance yourself, you know, if
- 32:59you want to risk your Bitcoin, then by all Means you know don't
- 33:03take this PSA from Simply Bitcoin and trust that your
- 33:07funds are self. Ooh.
- 33:09But as we've seen historically in Bitcoin as more exchanges
- 33:14blowing up continuously happening every couple of years
- 33:18your best bet is just take Bitcoin into self custody you
- 33:20don't know which company is trading paper.
- 33:23Bitcoin in, which coin companies actually holding their coin one
- 33:27to one, but if you have to trust versus verifying, then you are
- 33:32Holy missing the plot. You want to take this Bitcoin
- 33:35into self custody because that's the only way, you know you
- 33:38actually own Bitcoin. So you know whether by Nance
- 33:42actually has those assets. One, the one I wouldn't take
- 33:45that risk myself and people are saying in the chat that that we
- 33:50are misrepresenting. What's easy is saying, because
- 33:52he was asked being asked, whether he would be giving back,
- 33:56FTX is money to the customers that they came to them guys, we
- 34:00fully understand this but this Still further to our point that
- 34:04you shouldn't keep any Bitcoin on these exchanges.
- 34:06I wouldn't be trusting by Nance they are one of the biggest shit
- 34:11coin casinos out there so like you know if they are doing what
- 34:16what they say they are in your taking them by your word.
- 34:18Again you're trusting someone and this is the whole point of
- 34:21Bitcoin do not trust these middlemen exchanges because you
- 34:24don't have to opt out of this madness.
- 34:26Take your Bitcoin into self custody, do it.
- 34:28Now, before there is an actual bankrupt Bank Run on by now,
- 34:32That's because you never know what is going to happen?
- 34:34What do you mean? What do you mean?
- 34:35Look, someone said double standard, double standard here
- 34:37by Nancy is a private company. No one probed ft x or Sam for
- 34:41their finances but a Chinese man comes in TV and you all want to
- 34:45create a few crucify him. What does that have to do with
- 34:47anything? What does it matter where?
- 34:49He's from dude? What matters is like literally
- 34:52we literally laid out the case for you.
- 34:56Like the reality is guys if you have your money on by Nance
- 35:01whether it's whether It's easy, whether it's SPF it is not your
- 35:05money, it's their money and you're trusting them to give it
- 35:10back back to you and what we're making the case for today,
- 35:14right? Is not your keys, not your
- 35:17Bitcoin, you don't have to trust someone else anymore, whether
- 35:21that is whether that is CZ, whether that is by Nance,
- 35:25whether that is FTX, whether that's a bank, Does it matter?
- 35:30Look at the cases? Look, you want to put the whole,
- 35:32you know, crypto shit coin industry aside.
- 35:35Look at what just happened in Lebanon. people were literally
- 35:39trying to get out their life savings, out of the bank's, they
- 35:43shut them down saying no, we can't give that to you and the
- 35:47lesson Remains the Same If it's not your keys, it's not yours.
- 35:53You're trusting somebody else. Today, we made the case that
- 35:58some very sketchy shit happened, and if you make the connections,
- 36:02SBF did the same thing when he tried to buy the block to shut
- 36:07up CZ. According to the report by very
- 36:11reputable sources, Forbes and Reuters offered two hundred
- 36:17million dollars to buy the parent company of Forbes.
- 36:21Why wouldn't you do that? But to shut them up.
- 36:24And on the video clip that we played for you guys, CZ
- 36:28literally said, we want to be the gold standard of
- 36:30transparency. Do you think that's the gold
- 36:33standard of transparency when they're trying to buy out the
- 36:37media sources to shut them up? Because the definitely the
- 36:41defamation lawsuits didn't work. You can try me on the chat but
- 36:46we're very firm in what we believe, not your keys, not your
- 36:50Bitcoin and look. And if you are, you know,
- 36:54gambling and whatever, and it's your money, you could do what
- 36:57you want with it. What we're what we're trying to
- 37:00do is we're making the case if it's not your keys, it's not
- 37:05your Bitcoin. This not only applies to crypto
- 37:08exchanges, this applies to Banks as well.
- 37:12When you have the ology to store 12, distort millions, billions
- 37:17theoretically trillions of dollars by writing down a 12
- 37:20word seed phrase. Why the fuck would you not do
- 37:23that? Why because you have short
- 37:26taught you have short-term time preference you're thinking in
- 37:30the short term think long term think about your family.
- 37:34There's 21 million Bitcoins divided by Infinity the very
- 37:39simple math problem. But of course, you know, you
- 37:43could you can chase the short-term gains and get wrecked
- 37:47in the process. But yeah, you can continue using
- 37:51the distractions in the straw man and it's like, oh, it's
- 37:53because this is because it's like no has nothing to do with
- 37:55that. But hey, look, we say this all
- 38:00the time, sometimes people just have to burn their finger on the
- 38:03stove. They have to pay their price of
- 38:05tuition. And that's the only way they
- 38:08learn. Unfortunately, some people don't
- 38:12want to do that. That's why exactly, when
- 38:15bitcoiners Quarry clips. And also he was shouting it from
- 38:18the rooftop that Celsius was a Scamp and he was getting the
- 38:21same same shit that you're telling me right now.
- 38:23Same shit. Oh no, what are you talking
- 38:26about? Whatever and then it blew up and
- 38:29then people lost their life savings.
- 38:32You're talking about mothers grandmothers people that have
- 38:35worked their entire life. I saved up.
- 38:39To chase this six percent yield and they erect in the process,
- 38:43bro. How dare you?
- 38:45I'm literally tell I'm saying, take self custody because if
- 38:49not, it's not yours. What in that isn't true?
- 38:55Please let me know. Anyways Opti, let's get to,
- 38:59let's get to the culture. Let's do it.
- 39:00Let's go. The daily culture brought to you

- 39:32Bitcoin conference is in North America bit block.
- 39:36Boom, a true Bitcoin, conference network with fellow bitcoiners
- 39:40in Austin, Texas, August 24, 25 26, 27 2023.
- 39:44This is not a shit coin and if t or blockchain event we talked
- 39:48about Bitcoin Bitcoin and more Bitcoin.

- 39:53of the promo code all caps. Simply Bitcoin to get a major
- 39:57discount to your bit block, boom tickets.
- 40:02All right guys. Is we got this message and I
- 40:05believe it was are simply Bitcoin telegram group.
- 40:08And personally, man, this one hits close to home because I
- 40:13remember experiencing this the same experience when I was green
- 40:18and I was a noob and I was out here learning and you know when
- 40:22you come into the Bitcoin space, there's one thing that you need
- 40:24to learn and I think I still yet to cover it on the show.
- 40:27Everyone is a scammer and everyone wants your Bitcoin so
- 40:31trust. No one heh heh.
- 40:32It's why we go so hard every single day.
- 40:35Do not trust anyone with your Bitcoin.
- 40:37Take back your, your personal responsibility on your money.
- 40:41Take your Bitcoin into self custody, but this is a totally
- 40:44different story. And I'm going to cover the,
- 40:46what, what I have on the screen for you guys.
- 40:48A little story time and then I'll go into my own little story
- 40:50time and just talk about how I know this problem personally,
- 40:56firsthand. So we got zombie node again.
- 40:59I believe this was in are simply Bitcoin telegram group, go check
- 41:01it out, a bunch of cool bits. Winners in there and he goes the
- 41:05problem I had was not having a Bitcoin log file and not getting
- 41:08electrum rust to sing. I asked for help with this.
- 41:11In a couple different groups, including this one.
- 41:13I took it upon myself to try to fix but did not look very hard
- 41:16for documentation. I tried changing the Bitcoin
- 41:19core 22.0 after doing this. It looked like closing.
- 41:23My lightning channels was not confirming on chain I then was
- 41:26panicking and asked the group for help again which is when the
- 41:29scammers started contacting me, the one I chose to work with had
- 41:32a Profile name of open Noms. I was told I have to send
- 41:35Bitcoin on chain to them so they can synchronize the versions of
- 41:38Bitcoin core on my Note, and actually allow my transactions
- 41:41to confirm on chain this seem to actually work as I saw my
- 41:44transaction from my node confirmed but then they came
- 41:47kept asking for more funds to finalize to sing.
- 41:49And yes, I sent more funds on chain multiple times.
- 41:52I was having a hard time finding documentation on changing
- 41:55Bitcoin core and I was worrying about my channels peers and
- 41:58causing errors on the Chain this combined with a believable
- 42:02enough. To me, impersonation of a
- 42:04respected and trusted person responding to my pleas for help
- 42:07is what did me in as open. Don's has said, it's not
- 42:10uncommon, I just happened to fall harder for it than most
- 42:13would, I guess? There were several mistakes I
- 42:16made here and find if you want to single me out, personally.
- 42:18I put this here just for anyone to see in case it might help
- 42:21someone. So what happened here guys is
- 42:25someone got scammed in a telegram group.
- 42:29So if you are unfamiliar with telegram groups, when you go and
- 42:33ask for help, sometimes you will get responses personal responses
- 42:37from people, impersonating, well respected figures in the space
- 42:41and they will send you a DM and they will act like they are
- 42:44helping you they will they will you know, do their best to walk
- 42:48you quote unquote walk you through the issues and seemingly
- 42:51help you get your Bitcoin back but usually this is a red flag
- 42:56if you are in a public telegram group and you ask for help and
- 43:02then when someone responds to you in a personal DM, consider
- 43:06this a red flag from a scammer. And what happened here is
- 43:11someone in personated a well-known Bitcoin.
- 43:13ER, someone was asking for help. They got a personal DM and on
- 43:17Telegram and the guy seemingly helped him walk through the
- 43:20problem. It seemed to work but it looks
- 43:23like he got scammed out of some Bitcoin.
- 43:25Probably more than he would like to.
- 43:27So while this is a learning moment and and thank you for
- 43:32Further comment, zombie note and Darth Cohen for pointing this
- 43:35out to us. I can personally, I feel this
- 43:38guy's pain because in my early days in my new days in 2018, I
- 43:43as well got scammed by someone fishing as someone else and when
- 43:47you're new, you know, you're not used to the idea that everyone's
- 43:51a scammer and everyone wants your Bitcoin and that they are
- 43:55doing all kinds of social engineering, acts to get you to
- 43:58send them Bitcoin, to get them to send you, your personal
- 44:01private keys. He's and so again we'd say this
- 44:05all the time, if you do not want your Bitcoin scan from you, do
- 44:08not send Bitcoin to anyone. Most bitcoiners that I know will
- 44:12always do a PSA out there saying if I asked you for Bitcoin, it
- 44:18is not me and it's a scammer and this is a very good heuristic
- 44:22that you should live your life by because everyone wants your
- 44:25Bitcoin and so people will socially engineer.
- 44:27You they will pretend like they are someone else that someone
- 44:31that you may know someone that maybe Affected and they will D
- 44:34mu and try to walk you through the troubleshooting, only to try
- 44:38to get you to send them your private Keys.
- 44:41Want our first and foremost, never put your private keys in a
- 44:45telegram group as someone. This is not a way to help you,
- 44:48but if people ask for your Bitcoin, then you can be pretty
- 44:50sure that they are trying to scam you.
- 44:52So the moral of the story here guys, and I've experienced this
- 44:56myself, I sent way more Bitcoin than I should have to someone
- 45:00pretending that they were someone that I knew.
- 45:02New and I got wrecked. And of course human psychology
- 45:04is very interesting. You know, you got to put your
- 45:08hand on the stove sometimes for you to learn lessons and while
- 45:11this is very unfortunate is going to continue to happen.
- 45:14So this is why I figured it was a good idea to bring this on.
- 45:17If you are learning about Bitcoin if you're on telegram
- 45:19groups do not. Let this terrify you away from
- 45:21being coming a bit corner but just know, everyone's a scammer.
- 45:25Everyone's trying to get your Bitcoin, they will try to
- 45:27socially engineer you so that you send them Bitcoin.
- 45:29So you send them your private keys and they Just want to take
- 45:33your Bitcoin. So this is a Learning lesson.
- 45:36Shout out to you zombie node. I feel your pain.
- 45:39I know exactly what this feels like, and it's not a good
- 45:42feeling. So my two recommendations here,
- 45:45guys is, first and foremost, do not send anyone.
- 45:48Bitcoin, if people ask for your Bitcoin, on Twitter, on
- 45:51telegram, on an email, in a text message, just write it off as
- 45:55them being a scammer. Second, I know right now is one
- 45:59of those moments where it sambi node and people like like this
- 46:02might be you know they might be feeling the pain, you probably
- 46:05given away a small small fortune to a scammer and you may be
- 46:11turned off from Bitcoin in general.
- 46:13But do not let this stop you from understanding what is going
- 46:17on in Bitcoin, understanding how to take self custody,
- 46:20understanding that there are socially or people, socially
- 46:23engineering out there that people want your Bitcoin,
- 46:26because we say it all the time. Everyone is a scammer.
- 46:29Everyone wants your Bitcoin. That's how valuable Bitcoin is.
- 46:32And we are So new to this whole experience that people don't
- 46:37understand what the game is out there, there's bottom ticket.
- 46:43Anyways guys, I feel your pain, zombie known.
- 46:48I understand this exact feeling and the only defining trait
- 46:52between me and you in the past or sorry, you and me in the past
- 46:56is that I continue to double down on my education.
- 46:58I continued to stay humble and stacks ads.
- 47:01I understood that This is an inherent flaw with Bitcoin.
- 47:04This is more a fact that people out there are trying to take
- 47:08your Bitcoin from you. So again, if you ask for help in
- 47:13a telegram group and it's a public telegram group with a lot
- 47:15of people do not respond to the personal DMZ.
- 47:19You're going to get because they are most likely going to be
- 47:21scammers. Unless you verify, the person is
- 47:24who he says he is and they will do all kinds of tricks to get
- 47:27you to think that they're the person.
- 47:29They are do not send Bitcoin to Them do not give them your
- 47:33private keys because you will get wrecked and further more
- 47:36like I said, a while ago, you know make sure you know what
- 47:39you're downloading on your computer.
- 47:41Make sure you are actually downloading what you say you are
- 47:45because people want your Bitcoin and in my opinion this is just a
- 47:49feature and Bitcoin is that valuable that people will want
- 47:53to take your Bitcoin. So everyone out there just
- 47:57remember Do not send your private keys to people.
- 48:01Most bitcoiners will not ask for Bitcoin and if they do it's an
- 48:04immediate red flag that they are scammers.
- 48:06So zombie known. I hate to hear this story but
- 48:10just understand. Continue your education continue
- 48:13to Double Down. Continue to stack SATs and
- 48:15everyone else man. If you get these DMS just be
- 48:19very aware that everyone's a scammer and they all want your
- 48:22Bitcoin. So just be on your toes guys.
- 48:25Keep your head on a swivel because Bitcoin is that Valuable
- 48:29and there is no returns. There is no rewind button
- 48:32Bitcoin. So once it's gone, it is gone.
- 48:34And these are the harsh lessons that people are going to learn
- 48:37and will continue to learn. Just like we said in the news
- 48:39you know people need to learn that.
- 48:41It's not your keys, not your Bitcoin and don't leave Bighorn
- 48:43on an exchange. Well the same lesson will be
- 48:46learned that people want your Bitcoin.
- 48:49Everyone is a scammer so just be aware out there because we are
- 48:52still in the wild west of this Bitcoin experiment, this Bitcoin
- 48:56monetary experiment and you just got Be aware guys.
- 48:59You know, be safe out. There it is the holiday season
- 49:02people aren't thinking clearly, so just take your Bitcoin into
- 49:06self custody and do not send Bitcoin to strangers on the
- 49:09internet. Unless, you know, it is someone
- 49:13that is a reputable person. A company that, you know, you
- 49:17can, you can go and talk to, you know, hopefully, we can help
- 49:21people avoid this, but this is something that will continue to
- 49:25happen. So, shout out to you, zombie
- 49:26known for making it. No, because I I know it's not
- 49:29easy to talk about this stuff because I went through the same
- 49:32exact thing in 2018, and it almost broke me.
- 49:35But the only thing that helped me through it was studying
- 49:38Bitcoin and continuing to double down in my education.
- 49:41Yeah, 100%. And, and I did, I think, I think
- 49:44you hit the nail on the head and I've been a victim of this as
- 49:47well, right? The people you have to
- 49:49understand that the, this is like a pretty, like, not This
- 49:57isn't a sophisticated like I would say this isn't a
- 50:00sophisticated attack, but if you, you will be targeted at one
- 50:05point with a sophisticated social attack where, perhaps,
- 50:10they know, they know either your, your family members name
- 50:17your name and they'll create an email with that family members
- 50:21name and then they'll reach out to you right in the be like,
- 50:23hey, you like this, in this in that.
- 50:25So be aware. Of social attacks, social
- 50:29attack. Most people think like, okay,
- 50:31someone's going to show up to my house with a wrench and then
- 50:36you'll be like, hey you know but the majority of Bitcoin that
- 50:40stolen from that's get scammed by.
- 50:42People is literally a social attack.
- 50:45It's a phishing attempt, right? It's to make you to gain
- 50:48confidence with you and to try to get a hold of of your
- 50:54Bitcoin. And, you know, we have a very
- 50:56famous saying Saying in the Bitcoin space which is
- 50:59everyone's a scammer, right? Don't trust verify, you know,
- 51:03don't don't have heroes in Bitcoin.
- 51:06They tend to die metaphorically, of course, so.
- 51:09So yeah, man, but I think Opti you, you covered that greatly
- 51:12and I think that that these types of examples are, are hard
- 51:16lessons that people should be aware of, you know, so that you
- 51:20don't find yourself in that situation one day, you know I
- 51:25really recommend multisig The multisig is great.
- 51:28It's a little bit, is a little technical, there's awesome.
- 51:31Bitcoin companies that make it easy like unchain, like cos I
- 51:34mean, you can't say casa anymore because they added fucking
- 51:38etherium. But but yeah, there is, I guess,
- 51:40one Bitcoin company that does this like Unchained, they're
- 51:44great. So, but yeah, man.
- 51:46Just just be wary out there. Remember everyone wants your
- 51:51Bitcoin do not give it to them. Hold on Nico.
- 51:53Before we go on to the meme review, we have a comment here.
- 51:56Someone said, hold on, I'm not entertain.
- 51:59I am being preached to waste of my time and I responded, guys.
- 52:05We fully understand that there's a lot of Bitcoin content out
- 52:08there. You don't have to watch our
- 52:10show, but we understand one thing.
- 52:11We are getting new people every single day into the Bitcoin
- 52:14space and we also want to reach them so we get them up to speed
- 52:18so that they can become bitcoiners get into the Nuance.
- 52:21So yes, we do kind of go over the Bitcoin fundamentals that
- 52:24time but that's because you don't see what we see.
- 52:26We're getting A lot of new people in here and they don't
- 52:29know everything that you know. And so we're doing our best to
- 52:32not only get the bitcoiners that are already bitcoiners but
- 52:35convert people from normies to bitcoiners.
- 52:37So yes, hey, if you don't like what we're doing, there's more
- 52:41content out there. But we're doing a service for
- 52:45everyone out there because we see differently on this side,
- 52:49people are getting into the Bitcoin space and they are
- 52:52learning as well. And we get these messages all
- 52:54the time and so we're doing our best to get them.

- 54:50And he goes Sam Bateman fried still customer funds.
- 54:53So we must ban Bitcoin and it's it's ahead shitting into a
- 54:59toilet head. His other half of the head.
- 55:03It's more of the comment over here.
- 55:04This is back. To the idea that we continue to
- 55:06cover on the show. This is no inherent fault of
- 55:09Bitcoin. All the FTX collapse, all the
- 55:12lending collapse. This is why we tell you every
- 55:14single day take your Bitcoin into self custody Bitcoin is
- 55:17running as it's been designed to for decade now plus and none of
- 55:23this has any effect on bitcoin and continuing on that theme,
- 55:28shouts out to at hottel. Never saw do and he goes, not
- 55:30your keys, not your Bitcoin and we got this is a Dumb and Dumber
- 55:35me. Formatting.
- 55:35It goes FTX users with a bunch of paper in their hand.
- 55:38He goes, what is this? Where's all the money?
- 55:40And we got Jim Carrey as SPF and he goes, that's as good as
- 55:44money. Sir, those are our use.
- 55:47This is what we tell you guys. Make sure you're not holding
- 55:50paper Bitcoin. Take your Bitcoin in the self
- 55:52custody because this is why banks have been able to do what
- 55:56they do forever because they are rehypothecation Ting your funds.
- 56:01Take back your power with Bitcoin.
- 56:02This next one shout out to our friend, gold leader and I didn't
- 56:05know Nico is going to replay that CZ clip all day, but
- 56:09anyways, I'm glad he did because we got gold leader and he goes
- 56:13corporate needs you to find the difference between these two
- 56:16pictures and we got Will Ferrell and Anchorman.
- 56:19He goes, I don't believe you and then we got the lady rolling her
- 56:23eyes in that cheesy clip. Someone said in the chat, we
- 56:27need we need her as like an audio or visual clip on the show
- 56:31Nika. So when there's another point of
- 56:33contention, we just play her like me.
- 56:35Mmm, doodling or I wish we were missing a lot of sound boards.
- 56:39Like I want to, I want more Michael sailor.
- 56:41I want more Cory. I want just like some sauce from
- 56:45from some of the, some of the most awesome bitcoiners bro that
- 56:48we could just fucking with you. All right, well I will upgrade
- 56:54my sound board for you guys so that I can send multiple like
- 56:58that. We got yellow, at least we got
- 57:03yellow, you know, that? So let's go.
- 57:05That's what we got. All right, this next one, shouts
- 57:08out to Ryan Zach music and he got my first Bitcoin meme popped
- 57:11into my head while driving and made me chuckle, we tell you
- 57:14guys consistently, put your hat in the ring.
- 57:17Continue to meme continue to make the Bitcoin content that
- 57:20you want to see because there's not enough out there.
- 57:23And this is just standard meme template with the super, the
- 57:27superhero pushing buttons and on the Left, it goes slavery and on
- 57:31the right. It goes, remember 12 words as
- 57:34Nico says, all the time. It is Bitcoin are slavery.
- 57:37And all you have to do is remember 12 to 24 words to opt
- 57:40out of the Fiat panopticon that they want for you opt out of the
- 57:44dystopia with your 12 and 24 word, AKA your private keys.
- 57:49This next one shows that the Mitch clearly and I'm glad we
- 57:51kind of talked about this on the numbers.
- 57:55He goes there's Bitcoin and then there are digital Securities,
- 57:58and it's just the picture of Tom Cruise laughing because there's
- 58:02Bitcoin and their digital Securities.
- 58:04And if you're not holding Bitcoin, then you're most likely
- 58:07holding a digital security AKA, there's Bitcoin.
- 58:10And this shit coins. This next one is by the Bitcoin
- 58:12conference and he goes the dominoes are falling and I
- 58:15really enjoyed this. This mean right here.

- 58:22and The Dominoes continuously get bigger until we get to the
- 58:26big daddy king. The final boss, which is Fiat.
- 58:30And the dollar, the dollar will be the last Fiat to fall, and
- 58:34this is the game that we're playing and the powers that be
- 58:36know this. This next one, shouts out to
- 58:39away slice. This is a video for those on the
- 58:42spaces because who captured this live footage of Bitcoin Twitter
- 58:47and it's a tree that is on fire on the inside.
- 58:50But the tree looks very normal and nothing's happening on the
- 58:53outside. If you've been on bitcoin
- 58:55Twitter longer than a few weeks, you probably feel the same way.
- 58:59It is just a shit show and you know on fire half the time but
- 59:05this is fine. This is all part of Bitcoin
