💎 Buy. Hold. Build. Repeat. — $UFD Stronger Than Ever! · SILVER / GOLD / $UFD: Surviving Global Economic Shifts | RONS BASEMENT

• 0:01
  Good morning, UFD family. We have a major announcement
• 0:04
  this morning. I will be attending in Paris,
• 0:07
  France, the Ledger Open conference.
• 0:10
  I'm going to tell you about more about that in a second.
• 0:12
  But big, big news, exciting news for me, for our project, for the
• 0:17
  exposure of Unicorn fart dust with a great company Ledger.
• 0:23
  But first I want to say thanks for being here.
• 0:24
  Dusters, huh? I'm a duster.
• 0:27
  You're a duster. Wouldn't you like to be a duster
• 0:29
  too? It's a big deal.
• 0:31
  When you come here, Please remember, I don't give financial
• 0:33
  advice. Sometimes I forget to say that I
• 0:35
  don't give relationship advice. I'm not a not a financial
• 0:39
  advisor anything like that. But I do own a huge amount to
• 0:43
  us, my family, a huge amount of Unicorn farta.
• 0:46
  So our horns are aligned. How are you this fine Sunday?
• 0:50
  I hope you're doing great. So I will be heading to Paris,
• 0:54
  France for the Ledger Open conference.
• 0:57
  This is a big, big deal. You know what, let me let me let
• 1:00
  me play a quick 45 second video I put out this morning
• 1:03
  announcing it and then I'll tell you some more about what to
• 1:07
  expect. Here we go.
• 1:10
  All right guys, let's get this full screen and I'll be joining
• 1:17
  crypto leaders from around the world in Paris, France for the
• 1:22
  Ledger Open 2025 event. This is the event that Ledger
• 1:27
  host at their corporate headquarters and they make major
• 1:31
  big announcements. I'm hearing this year's going to
• 1:34
  be something very special is Ledger will be laying out their
• 1:38
  vision for the future of digital asset ownership and management.
• 1:43
  Ledger already does a great job with their hardware signer
• 1:47
  devices in the Ledger Live app, but I'm hearing there's a lot
• 1:52
  more to come and it will all be accomplished in the safe and
• 1:56
  secure environment that's a trademark of Ledger.
• 1:59
  I'll keep you posted on the trip to France.
• 2:02
  I can't wait to hear what they have to share with us.
• 2:06
  All right, guys. So super excited about this on
• 2:10
  many different levels. Of course, Ledger is a sponsor
• 2:13
  of Rons Basement supports my ability to come down here and
• 2:16
  for us to do Duster Club together, that's a big, big
• 2:20
  deal. But what I'm really excited
• 2:21
  about is to hear what Ledger has coming next, because we know
• 2:26
  already where is it? Here it is, right?
• 2:29
  They are the leader. There's the Solana edition and
• 2:32
  hardware signer devices, and that's what this is, a signer
• 2:37
  device. But they've also got the Ledger
• 2:38
  Live app, which I use, which allows you to do everything,
• 2:42
  buy, sell, stake, swap, manage all your digital assets.
• 2:46
  And now they're promising even more.
• 2:48
  And that's what we want for the overall crypto environment to
• 2:52
  continue expanding, for the crypto adoption to continue to
• 2:56
  go up, is for people to have a a way to manage their crypto, but
• 3:02
  to do it in a safe and secure environment.
• 3:05
  Unfortunately, later in this live stream, I'm going to share
• 3:08
  with you a story about a guy who just got hacked for over
• 3:11
  $3,000,000 worth of XRP. It is so important.
• 3:16
  Please learn, you know, I got hacked, OK?
• 3:19
  I thought it would never happen to me.
• 3:21
  I thought, oh, you know, I'm safe.
• 3:23
  I'm I'm careful. I've never had any problems.
• 3:26
  I got hacked and at the time the Unicorn fart does tokens that
• 3:29
  the hackers took were worth over $1 million.
• 3:33
  So please learn from me, learn from this guy that we're going
• 3:37
  to hear from a little bit later who lost $3,000,000.
• 3:40
  Think about security before something happens, all right?
• 3:45
  It's working, UFD, it's working. Buy, hold, build.
• 3:51
  That is the recipe. Very simple.
• 3:53
  OK, community. OK, and community growth.
• 3:57
  It's real easy. Oh, and by the way, digital
• 4:00
  scarcity. But let's look at some data.
• 4:02
  This blew me away and should blow you away as well.
• 4:06
  We had some crazy data come out comparing us to all the other
• 4:11
  cryptos. Hold on here.
• 4:12
  Let's get this page up. OK, so you now should be seeing
• 4:18
  a post from Ralph. Hello, Ralph.
• 4:21
  Look at him. He's got his Unicorn.
• 4:23
  He's a duster. He's a whale, he says Unicorn
• 4:26
  fart dust. The higher highest, I'm sorry,
• 4:30
  holder retention percentage and the third loudest on pump fun.
• 4:35
  What I want to draw your attention to is this, which you
• 4:38
  can't read, OK, but you see that little red circle or square over
• 4:44
  there that is UFD. This is a chart and I'm going to
• 4:47
  come back and show you something because I have multimedia
• 4:51
  devices today for you on the live stream, but that's a chart
• 4:55
  comparing what as I could see all the cryptocurrency meme
• 4:59
  coins and the top 1000 wallets. Guys, take a deep breath.
• 5:05
  It's going to knock your socks off.
• 5:07
  We had the highest retention rate.
• 5:10
  Here it is right here. Hold on, that's what that's what
• 5:16
  you saw on that graph? Yeah, there you can see it.
• 5:19
  Sometimes I get a bad glare, but that's UFD now.
• 5:23
  You can't see it, I don't think. Now anyhow, we are at 53.84%.
• 5:29
  Other coins are at numbers like 36 percent, 32%, right.
• 5:33
  What the simple recipe that we have being a community driven
• 5:37
  coin, being a coin that that that was born out of FUD and
• 5:43
  born because of community, a community takeover, that we are
• 5:48
  so robust and it's working. It's just quite simply working.
• 5:52
  It is so simple. Yeah, we got a lot of big
• 5:55
  things, a lot of exciting things, right.
• 5:58
  You know, my philosophy under promise over deliver.
• 6:02
  You know, today I delivered to you that I'm going to Paris,
• 6:05
  France and that yes, of course, I'll be there to learn about
• 6:08
  this exciting news from Ledger. But people will also see me
• 6:11
  there and learn about UFD. That's what we do in this
• 6:15
  project, right? And that happens because of one
• 6:18
  thing, right? People like the bullion duster,
• 6:21
  Vincent, people like Exit who was on Friday, people like the
• 6:25
  being, people like Georgie, people like you that are making
• 6:28
  this what it is. I am not the CEO.
• 6:31
  You're the CEO, but it's not just you.
• 6:34
  It's all the other dusters who are created, connected together.
• 6:39
  And what is this evolving energy force for good within the Web 3
• 6:45
  cryptocurrency environment? It's something special.
• 6:48
  It's never happened before, it will never happen again.
• 6:52
  We have digital scarcity #1 all this is so simple, guys.
• 6:57
  Look at Bitcoin, right? Like Jack Dorsey just said the
• 7:00
  other day, Bitcoin was so successful because it was very
• 7:04
  deliberate, easy to understand. Well, it's pretty easy, right?
• 7:08
  I'm sure you can understand, right, that there's only 999
• 7:12
  million UFD beans. And every day we see post about
• 7:17
  hardcore dusters, right? Who are buying more and more
• 7:21
  beans. Look, I don't give financial
• 7:23
  advice. I'm not telling anybody what to
• 7:25
  do. This is not a real cult.
• 7:28
  We're a cult COLT. We're a group of people that
• 7:31
  believe. The reality is, the fact is we
• 7:34
  have more and more people buying more and more UFD beans.
• 7:38
  But the important thing is those are people who believe in our
• 7:42
  project. It is simple.
• 7:44
  It is deliberate, OK? It's real easy to understand,
• 7:47
  right? When there's when, when enough
• 7:49
  of us have enough of the beans in our hands, we're going to get
• 7:54
  to a point where we have a bean shortage.
• 7:56
  And then, right, if the law of supply and demand, which is held
• 8:00
  for centuries and centuries, continues to hold, which it
• 8:03
  will, we will get to a bean shortage eventually, a beanopoly
• 8:07
  and right. Look, I can't guarantee
• 8:10
  anything, but at that point, we go to a place called My kids are
• 8:17
  sleeping. I can't do it too loud.
• 8:22
  What the heck? We'll wake him up.
• 8:26
  Wake up. Susie, too.
• 8:27
  I don't know if Susie. Susie, are you on here?
• 8:29
  If you are, could you please speak through your
• 8:32
  walkie-talkie. That would be much appreciated.
• 8:36
  OK, let's get back to the data. Then.
• 8:38
  We got a heartbreaking story about a guy who lost $3,000,000
• 8:43
  in crypto. You guys know I was hacked.
• 8:46
  You know that whole story. Here we are #3 on pump fun, OK,
• 8:51
  which is awesome. The coins that are above us are
• 8:54
  worth like, I don't know, 30 * 40 times more market cap than we
• 8:58
  are, which is great. That tells us the opportunity
• 9:03
  for growth that we have within UFD and we're in our community.
• 9:08
  I don't care what anybody says. I'll say right, much respect to
• 9:12
  Fartcoin, much respect to pump fun, but this community that we
• 9:17
  have in UFD is the real deal. We are like forged steel, the
• 9:22
  real deal forged steel, Buy, hold, build BHB.
• 9:26
  OK, let's get to some more crazy data.
• 9:28
  This came from key community member Resilient Jack, who is
• 9:32
  like a lot of you guys, putting in just extraordinary effort.
• 9:36
  Jack is doing so much. The raid groups, check them out,
• 9:40
  guys, ask questions. It's real easy to understand if
• 9:44
  you want to get involved. And even if you only have 10
• 9:47
  minutes a day, right, these people in the raid groups can
• 9:50
  help you reach out to Resilient Jack at Jack Resilient.
• 9:55
  But he put this out yesterday. UFD is in the top 13 in social
• 10:00
  dominance. So let's see who's ahead of us.
• 10:01
  OK, Pep Official Trump Dogecoin pump Shiba Inu Ape coin Dog.
• 10:10
  Pudgy Penguins are friends. What does the Penguin back
• 10:13
  there? I'm oh, wait a minute.
• 10:14
  Fart coin Giga Chad bonk SPX 6900 And there is Unicorn fart
• 10:22
  dust. Oh boy.
• 10:23
  I don't have my props ready today.
• 10:25
  I hope, I hope Luke is not mad at me because you can't see the
• 10:28
  pudgy Penguin. Hold on one second.
• 10:30
  Let me fix that. There we go.
• 10:39
  Don't forget, right? I got a Penguin on my shoulder
• 10:42
  right there. All right, there's the pudgy
• 10:44
  Penguin. They are ahead of us a little
• 10:45
  bit in social dominance. But hey 13 guys, we love other
• 10:50
  great communities, right. SPX 6900 is on that list.
• 10:54
  Pudgy Penguins is on that list and some other great
• 10:56
  communities, but we're on that list.
• 10:59
  But we're not on the list of with them is our market cap,
• 11:02
  which again is a good thing. It tells us, you know, is, but
• 11:08
  I'm not telling anybody what to do.
• 11:10
  But what I'm seeing, I can talk about what I see.
• 11:13
  And what I see are Unicorn fart desk community members doing two
• 11:17
  things. Number one, stepping up and
• 11:19
  demonstrating a solid commitment to this project like no other in
• 11:23
  #2 buying more beans and then new people coming in, buying
• 11:27
  more coins. And then what does that data
• 11:30
  show us? Yeah.
• 11:32
  Oh, am I dreaming? I've been up since like 4:00 AM.
• 11:35
  Is this a dream or is this real? Because on top of everything
• 11:39
  else, yeah, we happen to have, according to holder scan the the
• 11:45
  the the best of retention rate of amongst our top 1000 wallets
• 11:52
  of any of the meme coins. I don't know, guys, you tell me.
• 11:57
  All right, let's go. Let's go.
• 11:59
  It's time for us to say hello to our good friend, fellow duster.
• 12:03
  This guy's great. This to me, he epitomizes what's
• 12:06
  going on. Nate the Great is great, We know
• 12:08
  that. And he brings us up day 258 for
• 12:11
  the shirt guy, feeling he won't make it to 300, but we will see.
• 12:16
  That's the UFD shirt guy for anybody who's new.
• 12:19
  He's been wearing his UFD shirt for since he bought UFD, which I
• 12:23
  guess now is 259 days ago. There he is getting in the in
• 12:28
  dust we trust viral. That's the other thing
• 12:32
  happening. It's hard for me to cover
• 12:36
  everything. I was telling one of the
• 12:37
  community leaders last night like I'm having a hard time
• 12:40
  keeping up with everything the community's doing.
• 12:42
  We have this viral rage going on.
• 12:45
  Rage. I don't know, viral wave,
• 12:46
  whatever with dusters putting up pictures of themselves with the
• 12:50
  sign in dust we trust. But short guy, the important
• 12:54
  thing look, look at this guy, OK?
• 12:57
  I talked to him. He was on a live stream with me,
• 12:59
  I don't know, 5 weeks ago. He's like, guys, it's so
• 13:05
  different about our project. He's like just a great.
• 13:09
  I mean, it's hard for me to put this into words.
• 13:10
  A great guy. I've met many of you in person,
• 13:13
  I've met many of you on video calls.
• 13:15
  I've exchanged messages with many of you.
• 13:18
  But we have just such a unique characteristic to our community.
• 13:23
  And I guess the best way I can sum it up is great people.
• 13:26
  Really great people. I didn't say you were perfect.
• 13:30
  I'm not perfect. Ask upstairs.
• 13:31
  Susie here. We'll ask her right now.
• 13:34
  I don't think she's on her walkie-talkie, which get her in
• 13:36
  trouble. Susie, are you there?
• 13:38
  Over. I'm here.
• 13:44
  OK. Could could you please confirm
• 13:47
  with the viewers that I'm not perfect?
• 13:51
  Yes, you are not perfect. We didn't hear the last thing
• 14:00
  you said. I pushed my button.
• 14:01
  I'm sorry it. Said that you're my.
• 14:05
  Hero I love when Susie says I'm her hero.
• 14:09
  It like gives me an extra if you want, if you, if you, if, if you
• 14:14
  want to feel good, say that to somebody, say you're my hero.
• 14:17
  Say it to your spouse, your friend, your partner, whatever
• 14:20
  it may be because it really does work.
• 14:22
  OK. Oh yeah.
• 14:23
  Great people, wonderful, great people in that in mature.
• 14:27
  OK. And look, maturity doesn't
• 14:29
  necessarily come with age. Trust me.
• 14:31
  I can tell you that from experience.
• 14:33
  But we do have just an overall level level of like real, like
• 14:39
  real people that I guess you know, mature people.
• 14:43
  This community is real and real great.
• 14:47
  It's anyway, and it's different than what we see.
• 14:50
  And there's some other great communities.
• 14:51
  I always want to say that, OK, we're friends with a lot of
• 14:54
  these communities. But I believe when you look at
• 14:58
  the Unicorn, when you look at the corral, right, we're all of
• 15:01
  us are in there with our horns. Do you feel your horn?
• 15:04
  Huh. Do you feel it?
• 15:05
  You want to rub horns? It's early Sunday morning, huh?
• 15:09
  Let's do it. Let's rub horns.
• 15:13
  Feels good to rub our Unicorn horns together now, doesn't it?
• 15:17
  OK, All right, let's go. Is go.
• 15:20
  OK. Meme coins.
• 15:21
  Meme coins. Meme coin.
• 15:23
  I was one of those people 10 1/2 months ago.
• 15:25
  What's a meme coin? I made fun of fart coin.
• 15:28
  I'm sorry, fart coin. I had to change my tune.
• 15:31
  But nonetheless, look at this. This is shocking.
• 15:34
  And this is good news, I think, for meme coins.
• 15:37
  It's kind of got me excited. So I took a picture of it and
• 15:40
  I'm going to share it with you right now from Yahoo Finance.
• 15:43
  Bill Gross. This is an article about Bill
• 15:45
  Gross, who was the founder of PIMCO.
• 15:47
  He's the bomb king. And for those of you who don't
• 15:50
  know, OK, the stock market is one thing, but the bond market
• 15:54
  is way, way, way, way, way bigger.
• 15:56
  It's commonly known that that's a mistake.
• 15:59
  A lot of people, everybody follows the stock market.
• 16:01
  The stock market, the bond market writes the rules.
• 16:04
  Bill Gross is the buzz. The bond king founded PIMCO.
• 16:08
  He hinted this is about gold, but it has to do with meme coins
• 16:12
  that gold's run now looks overextended and prices fell
• 16:16
  more than 2% on Friday after hitting a record high above
• 16:19
  4300. You guys know I love Unicorn
• 16:22
  fart dust, I love crypto, and I love silver and gold, no doubt
• 16:26
  about it. I still put out a couple of
• 16:28
  pieces of gold and silver content every single week.
• 16:31
  But this is the important thing. At the bottom second paragraph,
• 16:35
  Bill Gross said quote, gold has become a momentum meme asset.
• 16:42
  If you want to own it, wait a while.
• 16:44
  He basically called gold a meme. And then I got to thinking about
• 16:48
  it, right? Gold's like the granddaddy of
• 16:51
  all precious metals, gold. Gold, gold's got like 30
• 16:53
  trillion or almost 30 trillion market cap or hit that the other
• 16:56
  day. The biggest asset in the world.
• 16:59
  It's timeless. It's been around.
• 17:00
  But really, what's the difference between gold and a
• 17:04
  meme? Because gold really isn't used
• 17:06
  for anything. I like silver, right?
• 17:08
  Here's a piece of silver, A5 oz silver bar.
• 17:11
  I've always, I don't really own hardly any physical gold.
• 17:14
  I love silver. I keep it off site, but I love
• 17:17
  this stuff. I keep a couple pieces here just
• 17:20
  for demonstration purposes. Silver's used in electronics,
• 17:24
  solar panels, batteries, health. It's Ant it's the most anti by
• 17:29
  anti oh shoot a micro by anyway kills germs.
• 17:33
  That's why silver there's a there's a 2 interesting things
• 17:36
  you may not know about silver. Number one, it naturally kills
• 17:40
  germs. That's why that's where the term
• 17:42
  silver spoon came from, because wealthy children hundreds and
• 17:46
  thousands of years ago would eat off of out of silver spoons
• 17:50
  because it's an anti microbiotic.
• 17:53
  I don't know. I forget the word.
• 17:54
  It killed those germs. So it's still used in many
• 17:56
  medical applications. It's the most conducive of
• 17:59
  electricity. It's the one of the most
• 18:02
  thermally conductive metals in the.
• 18:04
  So it's used in everything gold to get back to our meme coin
• 18:08
  gold thing, which is way more valuable.
• 18:11
  It takes like 80 ounces of silver to get one ounce of gold.
• 18:15
  But gold, it does have some industrial applications, but
• 18:18
  it's used very sparingly in an industry on some types of
• 18:22
  Electro anyway. It's just, it's valuable because
• 18:25
  people agree that it's valuable. That's really what it is, right?
• 18:29
  Why is a meme coin, that community of people determine
• 18:33
  the gold's valuable around the world for thousands of years,
• 18:37
  Unicorn fart dust, Who determines its value?
• 18:40
  A community of people around the world for hundreds of days.
• 18:45
  There is a big difference there. Gold's been around for the But
• 18:48
  really, you know, when I, when I it, this big light bulb went off
• 18:52
  inside my big head when I realized and I heard Bill Gross
• 18:55
  say that gold's become kind of like a meme that there's really
• 18:59
  not much difference. And I've always called Unicorn
• 19:02
  fart dust. If they're going to call Bitcoin
• 19:04
  digital gold, I'm going to call Unicorn fart dust digital
• 19:08
  silver. And as a matter of fact, as bit
• 19:10
  boy J pointed out the other day, the original meme, right?
• 19:14
  And we are working on new IP and it's well just stay tuned is all
• 19:19
  I can say but stay tuned shortly.
• 19:22
  The original meme for UFD was this little foam keychain
• 19:26
  sitting on top of 2 silver coins, 2 American silver Eagles.
• 19:31
  So yeah, guys, you know, I just really believe that there's
• 19:37
  true, true value. Absolutely.
• 19:40
  And what we're doing, we raised $5000 for Live Like a Unicorn
• 19:44
  pediatric Cancer Foundation. All right, let's talk about, did
• 19:47
  you hear the heartbreaking story?
• 19:49
  This guy who got hacked for $3,000,000 worth of XRP?
• 19:54
  We're going to watch a few minutes of that.
• 19:55
  We're going to talk about that. I do want to say thank you to
• 19:58
  channel sponsor Moon Pay. OK, Moon.
• 20:01
  Pay, the fintech leader, the entry door into crypto and doing
• 20:06
  a lot, lot more. I retweeted a recent tweet that
• 20:09
  they put out or post whatever you call them now this morning,
• 20:13
  they just got so much going on. They, you know, look, crypto is
• 20:18
  the future of business of commerce and Moon Pay is there
• 20:22
  making it happen. Moon Pay is adding big value to
• 20:26
  crypto. Moon Pay is bringing new people
• 20:29
  into crypto. When I first started the
• 20:32
  sponsorship with Moon Pay, there were like 30 million customer
• 20:35
  accounts and last I heard now there's 35,000,000 customer
• 20:39
  accounts. So thank you to Moon Pay, much
• 20:41
  appreciated. They helped make the Ron's
• 20:43
  basement broadcast possible and it's a big honor to have them as
• 20:47
  a sponsor. Now guys, let's watch this.
• 20:49
  This is sad. This guy got hacked for we're
• 20:52
  not going to watch the whole thing.
• 20:53
  You can go out and watch and get it for yourself, but he got
• 20:55
  hacked for 3 million and he's my age.
• 20:59
  He's 54, three million. Am I sharing the right screen
• 21:03
  now? I am seems like a really nice
• 21:05
  guy. He he made this video like the
• 21:08
  day after it happened. He hadn't slept.
• 21:10
  But let's see if we can learn a lesson from him.
• 21:18
  Now he's ready to cry. Ah, hold on, you guys.
• 21:55
  I apologize. You can't hear that.
• 21:57
  Darn it. I don't know why this is
• 21:59
  happening. I'm going to I'm going to fix
• 22:01
  this. Hold on.
• 22:02
  So he's been in crypto since 2017.
• 22:06
  He's been accumulating XRP all along and he got hacked.
• 22:10
  I know it's driving me crazy. Thank you, Susie.
• 22:14
  Hold on, guys. I'm going to try to reconnect
• 22:16
  this. I don't know what the problem is
• 22:18
  with Stream Yard or me. You know, who knows?
• 22:21
  Maybe it's me, but I don't think it is.
• 22:24
  We're going to reconnect here. Share screen.
• 22:27
  OK, boom, share. All right, OK, here I am.
• 22:35
  There's Brandon and I'm going to hit play again.
• 22:40
  Let me go back about to about right here.
• 22:41
  He's been in crypto since 2017. Big part at 1st and I'll explain
• 22:45
  what happened. I've been in crypto since 2017.
• 22:50
  I've been accumulating XRP for the past eight years.
• 22:55
  I've accumulated over 1.2 million XRP which is worth every
• 22:59
  $3,000,000 now. I had it on a cold wallet.
• 23:05
  It's called LA Pal cold wallet, and I thought I did all the
• 23:09
  things right. I didn't write that.
• 23:11
  I wear down my suit phrase. I kept it as safe.
• 23:15
  I wouldn't give it anybody over the phone.
• 23:18
  I don't answer phone calls like that.
• 23:23
  I thought I did a pretty good job.
• 23:25
  I'm not the most computer literate, but I don't I think I
• 23:27
  was pretty above average. About a year ago, I retired.
• 23:33
  My wife and I retired. We were planning on moving out
• 23:36
  to Las Vegas and buying a house. Was actually supposed to go look
• 23:38
  at 1:00 next week. This morning I woke up.
• 23:43
  Oh, here we go. You woke up.
• 23:45
  All my XR PS been stolen, been hacked they apparently I don't
• 23:54
  check my wallet every day I. Watched the price. 24 hours a
• 24:00
  day but I don't check my wallet every day and I guess the last
• 24:05
  time I checked it was Saturday and I checked it this morning at
• 24:08
  4:30 and it looks like on Sunday morning somebody removed 10 XRP
• 24:13
  then they removed 2 minutes later from 11:15 Eastern Time
• 24:18
  they removed 10 XRP and then a couple minutes later they will
• 24:21
  make another one then 200 and 9200 and 990,000 XRP.
• 24:30
  OK so as you just heard somebody took over 1.2 million XRP from
• 24:37
  him. First off, my heart goes out to
• 24:39
  him. I know what that feels like
• 24:40
  because my UFD got hacked and it's a traumatic experience.
• 24:45
  I can only imagine how he's feeling.
• 24:47
  Hang in there buddy. Things will get better trust me.
• 24:51
  But it is a very traumatic experience of that man is going
• 24:54
  through right now. And apparently he did have a
• 24:57
  cold wallet. I'm not a Ledger.
• 25:00
  I don't I wasn't real familiar with the name of the cold wall
• 25:02
  that he had. And look, I'm not don't quote me
• 25:05
  on this, but a couple people reached out to me and said that
• 25:08
  and then he had maybe stored a passphrase or some data on his
• 25:11
  phone that he shouldn't have. So and that's how they were able
• 25:17
  to get in. I don't know.
• 25:18
  You can. There's he has another follow up
• 25:20
  video you can watch. The bottom line is this, please,
• 25:24
  everyone right? Learn from him, learn from me,
• 25:28
  think about crypto security before something happens, and
• 25:32
  always follow the directions. I follow the directions that I
• 25:36
  got from Ledger to AT right, and I feel very safe, very secure.
• 25:41
  You don't want to go through an experience like this.
• 25:44
  Everybody thinks it won't happen to them, but it does happen.
• 25:47
  I mean, he had been in crypto since 2017.
• 25:51
  Please think about security before something happens.
• 25:55
  OK, what about Mr. Beast? Let's switch here's here some
• 25:59
  big news coming out interesting news.
• 26:02
  Do you know who Mr. Beast is? Most of I'm sure most of all you
• 26:05
  do like the biggest YouTube on the face of the planet.
• 26:08
  But look at this news headline I found very interesting from
• 26:13
  decrypt YouTube star Mr. Beast files trademark for crypto
• 26:20
  exchange and payment service. So it looks like Mr. Beast might
• 26:23
  be getting into crypto. That will be very interesting.
• 26:27
  He has, I don't know, a billion dollars.
• 26:29
  I don't know like he's the biggest YouTube in the world,
• 26:32
  super famous. Everybody knows about Mr. BC has
• 26:35
  candy bars, does a lot of charity work.
• 26:37
  Really a great nice guy. I think, right, it'll be
• 26:41
  interesting to see how that plays out because it from that
• 26:44
  article says it could be like a kind of a all-encompassing app.
• 26:48
  But I think at minimum, it can bring some more new people into
• 26:53
  the crypto ecosystem. And we've talked about that.
• 26:56
  I think in the next 10 years, we're going to see continued
• 26:59
  adoption of crypto and I think that that can give us a, a
• 27:04
  strong indication as to how that will, will and could happen.
• 27:08
  All right, guys, thanks for being here.
• 27:09
  Don't forget big announcement earlier.
• 27:11
  You can go to my ex and and if you haven't seen it already,
• 27:14
  watch the video. I will be at the Ledger Open
• 27:17
  2025 event in Paris, France, right amongst a lot of the big
• 27:22
  people, the big leaders in crypto.
• 27:24
  I'm super excited about that. I'm super excited about where
• 27:28
  our project continues to head. I'm super excited about how the
• 27:33
  community continues to evolve in a super high quality manner.
• 27:39
  And that's all about you Now. You've got one assignment today.
• 27:42
  Be good to yourself that will give you a platform from which
• 27:46
  you can be good to other people. Take care and I'll see you soon.
