Transcript
- 0:01Silver, Wake up stackers. We are in a critical period in
- 0:06what is already a historic time for precious metals, silver and
- 0:12gold. We're going to talk about all
- 0:13the reasons why in this video, but let's be real.
- 0:17Here's a fact for you. You don't realize you're in a
- 0:21historic time until after you're already through the historic
- 0:26time. And all the evidence points
- 0:28towards the fact that we are at a very critical, very crazy
- 0:33period right now for precious metals in the history of the
- 0:37world. And let's not forget, gold and
- 0:40silver have always been the world reserve currency for
- 0:45thousands of years. So what's unfolding right before
- 0:50our very eyes right now really can make sense if we look at it
- 0:54through a broad lens of history. But we're going to focus on the
- 0:58right now because right now, right in front of us, and I
- 1:02mean, maybe as soon as tonight, Sunday night, Super Bowl Sunday,
- 1:06when the markets open, we could see some fireworks in the coming
- 1:10weeks in the precious metals markets and in particular with
- 1:14silver. There's nobody else that I'd
- 1:17rather enjoy these fireworks with than you.
- 1:19So I want to say thank you for joining me down here in the
- 1:22basement. Seriously, what a great group of
- 1:25people we have, basement dwellers we call ourselves.
- 1:28Please do us a favor, subscribe to the channel.
- 1:31That way you'll know when we go live, press the little bell
- 1:35notification, then you'll get notified.
- 1:37We want you to come back. We want to learn and grow
- 1:40together on this wild, wild journey that we're having right
- 1:45now in precious metals. And there's a super sharp guy
- 1:49we're going to hear from Honza right now.
- 1:53Without further ado, super sharp guy who's doing some
- 1:56unbelievable analysis and he's pointing to us nine reasons, 9
- 2:02reasons why things are crazy and not just like crazy with silver,
- 2:08right? We had a silver sizzler.
- 2:09We talked about that things are crazy right now.
- 2:12Not two years, three years from now.
- 2:14We are living in it together right now.
- 2:17Let's go out and see what Hanza has to say because I think as we
- 2:21work through what he's presenting to us, this will make
- 2:25much more sense. And Yep, we got you up.
- 2:29So Hanza, Saturday, the man himself tells you, Stackers,
- 2:34wake up. This is the moment we've been
- 2:37watching for years. The silver paper House of Cards
- 2:41is starting to crack. February 2026.
- 2:45That's right now sets the stage. March could be historic.
- 2:50The paper price is lying. OK, all right now we're going to
- 2:53walk through why he's saying this and we're going to talk
- 2:56about this very important February 2026 Deliveries are
- 3:00insane. In just the first few days,
- 3:0219,000,000 ounces of paper silver have been taken
- 3:07physically off the futures market.
- 3:09That's nearly all of last year's February delivers deliveries in
- 3:13a in under one week. Oh shoot, hold on here.
- 3:18Even more telling, even more telling, 98% of the open
- 3:22interest stood for delivery. Buyers don't want paper anymore,
- 3:27they want real metal. Now look at March our month.
- 3:31We're coming up on open interest 80,500 contracts.
- 3:35That's over 400 million oz demanded Comex registered.
- 3:39OK, deliverable silver is only 100 million oz.
- 3:44Do the math, OK, There's 400 million oz outstanding.
- 3:48There's only 100 million in the registered category at the
- 3:52COMEX. If even 25 to 30% stand for
- 3:55delivery, it's like like we're seeing now, there isn't enough
- 4:00silver. And this is not isolated.
- 4:03The drain is global. On the Shanghai Futures Exchange
- 4:07and the Shanghai Gold Exchange, less than 30 million oz left
- 4:11invisible vaults. They're absorbing metal
- 4:14aggressively. LLBMA estimates about 150
- 4:18million ounces of global free float total.
- 4:23That's not in abundance. That's tightness.
- 4:26OK, all right #5 silver lease rates have just spiked about 6%,
- 4:33highest in years. This is the Canary in the coal
- 4:36mine. Banks are paying up now to
- 4:39borrow metal to cover shorts. Lease rates equal physical.
- 4:44High lease rates equal physical scarcity.
- 4:46Stress in the system. A classic squeeze set up in this
- 4:50time. It's hold on here bigger.
- 4:53OK, number 6 stackers, let's be honest.
- 4:56While the world chased the Fiat illusion paper promises it's
- 5:01just a pet rock narratives. You stacked real money.
- 5:04You survived the deaths, the suppression, the mockery.
- 5:08Now the system itself is blinking in the next two to
- 5:12three weeks. OK, the first notice date for
- 5:15delivery is February 27th. Possible outcomes massive short
- 5:19covering violent price discovery, cash settlements or
- 5:24worse. If March follows the three to 4X
- 5:27delivery trend of recent years, 200 million plus oz could be
- 5:32demanded. That's game over for the paper
- 5:36market. To every silver stacker hearing
- 5:39this, hold strong. Add if you can look.
- 5:42We're not financial advisors. Always be responsible.
- 5:45Remember why you stacked? Not for a quick flip, but for
- 5:50generational wealth. The screen price lies until
- 5:54physical forces the truth. Finally, we are weeks away from
- 5:59potential default territory. Paper silver is being exposed.
- 6:04Physical silver is reclaiming its role.
- 6:06Stackers win, always. Who's still stacking in 2026?
- 6:11OK, thank you, Hanza and guys. But wait, there's more, right?
- 6:16He did a great job. I love what he had to say.
- 6:18But wait, there's more. OK, if you think about this, I
- 6:23don't know how you feel. But look, when I think about the
- 6:25paper markets, the COMEX in the LBMA, it's been proven that
- 6:30they've manipulated the price of silver and gold for decades and
- 6:35decades and decades. In 1971, when President Richard
- 6:38Nixon temporarily took the United States off the gold
- 6:41standard, and prior to that, they've taken silver out of our
- 6:44money. Think about it.
- 6:46It's easy to think it's, it's times that we, we, it's the most
- 6:50simple thing to understand. When they took the backing of
- 6:54gold out of the dollar and the backing of silver out of the
- 6:57dollar. At that point, silver and gold
- 7:00became like, like they divorced like it was a divorce in the US
- 7:05government wanted gold and silver to not be worthless at
- 7:09that point. I mean, it does that, does that
- 7:12make sense? I hope that makes sense.
- 7:14That is what we're living through.
- 7:16They turn the dollar and they turned the the paper silver and
- 7:20gold markets into kind of a Ponzi scheme.
- 7:23Now let's focus in on the paper silver market, right where
- 7:27there's leverage of 23400 times, right?
- 7:30There's 403 hundred paper ounces of silver for each one real oz
- 7:35right like this right here, this beautiful one ounce silver round
- 7:40from channel sponsor First met. That's a roulette wheel.
- 7:43Isn't that beautiful on the back of their Las Vegas round?
- 7:48But for each one of these, there's 3 or 400 paper oz.
- 7:53It's kind of like a Ponzi scheme, OK.
- 7:55And you know, a Ponzi scheme like Bernie Madoff ran, they can
- 7:59go for a pretty long time. Bernie Madoff was real
- 8:03successful at keeping that Ponzi scheme alive.
- 8:06But eventually they crash. Eventually truth comes out.
- 8:12Eventually the laws of supply and demand, Mother Nature wins.
- 8:16And that's likely where we are right now.
- 8:19On top of everything, OK, that our friend Hansa put pointed out
- 8:24about what's going on right now in the COMEX, in the LBMA, we've
- 8:28got this massive issue with the sky beyond the Chinese
- 8:31billionaire who it's been exposed, thanks to Bloomberg
- 8:35that he has a short position on the Shanghai Futures Exchange in
- 8:40silver. That's equal to almost
- 8:4215,000,000 oz. That is going to need to be
- 8:45covered as well. Guys, we are living in a
- 8:48absolute and we got it. We're going to talk about
- 8:50Germany. We're going to talk about the
- 8:52other big thing, probably the biggest factor when we lookout
- 8:57long term for gold and silver that are going to be massively
- 9:01impactful that nobody else is talking about.
- 9:03We're going to get to all that, OK.
- 9:05But we got to realize that right now, in these next few weeks, it
- 9:10could get crazy. Right now it could be a nothing
- 9:13burger. We've been, we've been down this
- 9:15road before. And they are going to fight with
- 9:18everything they have to maintain their sick little control over
- 9:22the paper price of silver. Maybe they'll figure, maybe
- 9:26they'll kick the can a little bit further down the road.
- 9:29But, but I think there's a big chance that in the next month
- 9:35things could get super, super interesting.
- 9:38And think about this on top of it all in the West, right?
- 9:42We've got the situation in the markets between the spot market
- 9:46and the futures market of backwardation that's occurring
- 9:49on a regular basis. I think we're like about it
- 9:53equal right now. But backwardation is when the
- 9:55physical spot price of silver is actually higher than the futures
- 10:01price, right? Usually the market should be in
- 10:03the state of contango. But what we're seeing more and
- 10:07more often is that it's in backwardation.
- 10:09I don't know, guys, what do you think?
- 10:11But when I look at this, when we look at all the facts that are
- 10:14laid out there to me, we are living through an absolute
- 10:18historic time. When we look at the evidence,
- 10:21OK, and we're looking at this just on this little short term 1
- 10:24month period, when we look at that evidence, it looks
- 10:28historic. When we look at it on a broader
- 10:30historic term like we started out talking about in this video,
- 10:35gold and silver have always been and always will be the world's
- 10:43reserve currency. They are the yardstick by which
- 10:47everything else is measured. OK, I know we're, we're
- 10:51brainwashed. I'm part of it, I fully admit,
- 10:53right? We are brainwashed into thinking
- 10:55into pricing silver and gold in U.S. dollars.
- 11:00Think about 5000 years, right? Here's the start, here's the
- 11:03finish. OK, gold and silver valuable.
- 11:07Gold and silver valuable for 5000 years.
- 11:11This little spot right here, right?
- 11:13This little sliver in that 5000 years represents the amount of
- 11:17time that the US dollar even existed.
- 11:21And on that 5000 year timeline, there's all kinds of hundreds,
- 11:25if not thousands of other paper Fiat currencies that came and
- 11:31went. I love my country, I love the
- 11:33United States. I love that the founding fathers
- 11:36of the United States actually put gold and silver in the
- 11:39United States Constitution. That doesn't mean cuz it's still
- 11:43a free country where we can speak our minds that I agree
- 11:46with what happened in 1971 when Richard Nixon temporarily took
- 11:51us off the gold standard. It's going to get interesting.
- 11:53We are living in historic times right now, guys.
- 11:57Let's move over. We got it going.
- 11:59It's what look, there is a physical scramble, a physical
- 12:06scramble. I had Dan Wilton, the CEO
- 12:09channel sponsor first mining gold on like 3 months ago and we
- 12:13talked about it. That was the first time.
- 12:15I think it's another term that we invented together down here
- 12:19in the basement. We talked about, we use the word
- 12:21scramble, right? We both agreed that it felt like
- 12:24we were at that point, the beginning phases of a scramble
- 12:28for precious metals all around the world.
- 12:31We know what's going on in Russia.
- 12:33We know what's going on in China.
- 12:35We know what's going on in India.
- 12:37Don't forget, last night we pointed out the fact that India
- 12:40imported one in four of all silver Oz that were produced by
- 12:46the mining sector last year. That's not the point, OK,
- 12:49Because we never really talk about Europe.
- 12:51What about Europe? What about Germany?
- 12:54Isn't Germany the biggest economy in Europe?
- 12:57I wonder what's going on with precious metals in Germany.
- 12:59Yeah, we're going to find out right now, and you're going to
- 13:01be shocked. Take your blood pressure
- 13:04medicine. Let's head over to our friends
- 13:06in Germany and see what they're telling us this came from.
- 13:11This guys got to be German. Hans.
- 13:14Zip, Phil. Hello, Hans.
- 13:16Welcome to the basement. We love you, SOS.
- 13:20We're going down the drain. Precious metals dealers are
- 13:24struggling with shorts with supply shortages.
- 13:27The Bayern LB, Germany's by far largest precious metals
- 13:32wholesaler. That means they supply the
- 13:35financial institutions and the dealers, says Quote.
- 13:39We often get twice as many orders a day as we can process.
- 13:45Doesn't that mean demand is greater than supply anyway?
- 13:49Quote. The minting facilities which
- 13:52stamp the raw material into tradable bars and coins are also
- 13:57working at their limit. Consequences.
- 14:00We call a minting facility and want to order 100,000 coins.
- 14:05They're trying to catch up with you and your stack, right?
- 14:08And get told back that we can only receive 10,000 coins, 10%
- 14:14of what they want to order. And that only, and that's only
- 14:18going to happen in six weeks. So think about that.
- 14:23They try to order 100,000 coins, they only can get 10% of what
- 14:28they want to order. But wait, there's more.
- 14:30They got to wait six weeks to get it.
- 14:33The shortage is real. Since New Year's, the physical
- 14:36precious metals market has been in a state of emergency.
- 14:41Excuse me. And even the crash in the
- 14:45futures market does not ease the bottleneck in yellow.
- 14:51The main interest is still on silver.
- 14:53Quote, most recently, this is from somebody else.
- 14:56The Australian Perth Mint, like the US, meant before it
- 15:00announced that it will not accept any more orders until the
- 15:03end of February. Now, this is from a guy from
- 15:06Ophirum, OK? He's the founder and CEO.
- 15:10His name's under critical critics.
- 15:12Anyway, he's from Germany. Quote, for gold, delivery dates,
- 15:16depending on the minting facility are now sometimes as
- 15:19late as the end of April. For silver, availability is even
- 15:24worse. Current delivery times here are
- 15:27even further out. OK, everything we get in now is
- 15:32already been sold out. OK, all of this in an
- 15:37environment this is a worldwide scramble for resources, guys,
- 15:43that includes gold. That includes silver.
- 15:46The world central banks are holding more gold now than they
- 15:50are U.S. Treasuries.
- 15:52That's the first time and like forever that that's been the
- 15:55case. But we know it's the case with
- 15:57silver. We know it's the case with
- 15:59minerals everywhere because this week we had this story come out
- 16:03from Washington, DC. And here's a tweet from Catoosa.
- 16:09The rise of America, critical and minerals, energy, soon base
- 16:14metals and precious metals. The White House announcing a new
- 16:18era, a new era of prosperity for America and its workers.
- 16:22On Monday, the Trump administration announced Project
- 16:25Vault, America's first domestic critical minerals stockpile.
- 16:33It's happening. It's happening in real time.
- 16:36And I'm telling you, I think these next few weeks are going
- 16:39to be crazy for the metals. It's going to be volatile.
- 16:43Be ready for big volatility in the metals markets.
- 16:47I've been following these markets closely for decades.
- 16:50I don't come on here. I don't think I've ever came on
- 16:53and said it with as much conviction is today that I feel
- 16:57like the next three to four weeks are going to be crazy.
- 17:00Be emotionally prepared for big swings up down in between the
- 17:06jiggle in the middle. Like Michael Oliver saying, by
- 17:09the way, Michael Oliver, the the silver Swami, right?
- 17:13I say that with much respect. Everybody worships the guy.
- 17:18He's still talking about 3 to $500 silver by the summer.
- 17:23Think about what's going on at the Comex.
- 17:25Think about what's going on in China.
- 17:28Think about what's going on with the Chinese billionaire.
- 17:30Think about how it all kind of fits together potentially,
- 17:34right? Please though, as your friend, I
- 17:37want to tell you, no matter what you do, be responsible.
- 17:41Don't expose yourself to too much risk.
- 17:43If you're new to silver, dollar cost average and if you're new
- 17:47to to gold, I will give that financial advice.
- 17:49That's what I believe is the smartest way to do it.
- 17:51Don't expose yourself to too much risk because things could
- 17:55get volatile to the downside as well as to the upside.
- 17:59I believe that it's going to be to the upside, but you know,
- 18:02we'll see how that all plays out.
- 18:05There's one big, big factor that I know and nobody else is
- 18:10talking about it. Look, we talked about the
- 18:12debasement trade before anybody else did, right, guys that
- 18:17they're calling it, they're they're giving us a basement
- 18:20dwellers a huge compliment. Everywhere you look now they
- 18:22talk about debasement trade. We're going to look at that in a
- 18:26in a second. But there's another something
- 18:28else that hardly anybody's talking about.
- 18:30We started talking about three months ago.
- 18:34And I'm telling you 3 years from now, it is going to be the story
- 18:38for gold and silver that everybody talks about, OK.
- 18:42And it has to do with the tokenization of silver and gold.
- 18:46Now wait a minute, wait a minute.
- 18:48And I'm going to explain to you why that's the case.
- 18:51But please, please, you don't have to like the blockchain.
- 18:54You don't have to like crypto, any of that to realize that this
- 18:58is going to be a massive source of demand in the coming months,
- 19:03quarters and years. And it's, I'm going to give you
- 19:05a, we're going to look at examples that it's already
- 19:07happening right now for gold and silver, because when they
- 19:13tokenize gold and silver, they back it 100% with real physical
- 19:18metal. That means people don't have to
- 19:20store it at their house, store it in a safety deposit box.
- 19:23They can store it in this world class vaults that the
- 19:27tokenization companies have and then they can use their phone,
- 19:31right? They don't have to go to a coin
- 19:33shop if they want to use their gold and silver.
- 19:35They can use their phone and sell even just small fractions
- 19:39like of an ounce of gold or silver and not pay these crazy
- 19:43spreads. Look again, you don't have to
- 19:45like it. You don't have to agree with it.
- 19:46That's fine. But there are a lot of people
- 19:48who are all over the world and wait until you hear this because
- 19:53the biggest company doing it, the biggest crypto company in
- 19:57the world, tether. OK, this is unbelievable.
- 20:02Let's just hit this and then we'll wrap up why this is so
- 20:05important, but this came up wrong. 1 Hold on here guys.
- 20:11Another one. From Tether.
- 20:12I'm sorry. From Catoosa.
- 20:14Mary Catoosa. Been around the precious metal
- 20:17sector forever. Again, one of the smartest guys
- 20:20out there. Here.
- 20:21This is Juan Sartori from Tether.
- 20:24Gold was asked for his gold price target.
- 20:27All right, we want to listen to him.
- 20:30I'll explain to you why. Big reason why in a second.
- 20:33The man sitting on $20 billion.20 billion in physical
- 20:39gold, buying 3 tons a week with 0 hedges, meaning they're buying
- 20:45it. They're buying physical metal, 3
- 20:47tons per week. His answer, I won't give you a
- 20:51number, although we have it again when they asked him what
- 20:54his price prediction was for gold because you're going to
- 20:58think we are crazy. So he's thinking that the gold
- 21:01price is going to go extraordinarily higher.
- 21:05Let's go to this next one from Tether and then I'll explain to
- 21:07you why this is so important. Tether, big news just late last
- 21:12week. Now they're backing gold.com
- 21:15with a $150 million deal. Tether is investing 150 million
- 21:22to acquire a 12% stake in gold.com, partnering to
- 21:26integrate If it's XAUT, that's their gold token and expand
- 21:32accessible digital and physical gold.
- 21:34The collaboration will allow users to purchase physical gold
- 21:40using USD T, which is the world's biggest U.S. dollar
- 21:45stable coin or the second biggest?
- 21:46I think it's actually the biggest, aiming to bridge crypto
- 21:50rails with traditional precious metals markets.
- 21:54Why is this a big deal? For two reasons, right?
- 21:58Tether is now the world's biggest buyer of gold outside of
- 22:03the world central banks. The world central banks are the
- 22:06massive they're the smartest people.
- 22:08Think about this, right? The world central banks, right?
- 22:12They've been buying gold hand over fist.
- 22:14And some people speculate that maybe silver's in that mix or
- 22:18soon will be in the mix anyway. Speculation.
- 22:21They're buying gold hand over fist.
- 22:22The world central banks are the world's most sophisticated
- 22:27financial institutions, OK? Right behind them, the world's
- 22:31biggest buyer of gold is Tether. OK, that's a big deal, guys.
- 22:37And as it's not just gold, because what we're going to see
- 22:42more and more of, and it's already begun, is silver being
- 22:46tokenized. And again, when these companies
- 22:50tokenize gold, tokenize silver, it is backed up 100% by real
- 22:56physical metal that's in a vault in the next five years.
- 23:01You don't have to agree with me right now, OK?
- 23:04And I know a lot of people in the silver and gold community
- 23:06are very skeptical of anything blockchain oriented.
- 23:09Whatever this is along the same lines of what happened is big
- 23:15reason why this is important with what happened when the gold
- 23:19and silver ETFs came on the scene, right?
- 23:22Or the gold and silver trust like the PSLV, the spot physical
- 23:26silver trust and they've got a physical gold trust as well.
- 23:29It created a massive wave of demand for the physical metals
- 23:35because, and we won't debate this.
- 23:37There's there's speculation that the SLV maybe possibly doesn't
- 23:41have all the silver. They said whatever, all right,
- 23:44But the fact is that as when when people buy the SOVETF right
- 23:49now, it creates big demand for silver.
- 23:51So this is where we're going, right?
- 23:54This is like when the the world is moving to the blockchain and
- 23:58real world assets, OK, Like tokens, right?
- 24:02A token, a digital token that's actually backed 100% by the real
- 24:08metal. It's not unlike when e-mail
- 24:10first came out. I remember when e-mail first
- 24:12came around, people like, I don't want to get electronic
- 24:15mail. I want to get letter in the
- 24:16mail, in the mail physical. I want to go to my mailbox and
- 24:19get it. And now most people, right, they
- 24:22trust an e-mail just as much as they trust that physical metal.
- 24:27The other thing to consider, and I'm not trying to sell you or
- 24:31anybody else on the tokenization of gold and silver, but it's,
- 24:35it's, it's kind of like a bank. Well, bad analogy.
- 24:40These companies, that's all they're doing is storing the
- 24:44metal. They are the specialist at it.
- 24:46Like, Tether has a massive vault in Switzerland.
- 24:50OK, state-of-the-art. I mean, they're going to do a
- 24:53better job of protecting those metals than most people can do.
- 24:57I'm not against. Look, I love, I love, I don't
- 25:00keep much at the house at all. But I love physical metal.
- 25:03And I understand completely if you don't hold it, you don't own
- 25:06it mentality. But there's no denying that
- 25:09there's going to be a massive wave of demand coming.
- 25:12I'm going to say it one more time from the tokenization of
- 25:16gold and silver. Oh, yeah, we got to talk about
- 25:19they did steal the, the, the basement trade.
- 25:24We talked about it for years. This is incredible, $1000 of
- 25:30gold in what, 1971? Here.
- 25:32I'll just read it to you what it would be worth today.
- 25:37Hold on here. Make sure I got the right screen
- 25:39up for you. How are you doing today, by the
- 25:41way, guys, thank you so much. Again, on behalf of Susie and
- 25:45myself, we want you to come back.
- 25:46Please subscribe to the channel because we're going to learn
- 25:53about interesting things like this.
- 25:55The great debasement, There it is right there.
- 25:58Hold on, debasement, let's make that a different color.
- 26:03We'll make that cayenne. There we go.
- 26:06The great debasement, $1000 of gold in 1970 is equal to $58,000
- 26:16worth of gold today. The dollar went down by 93%
- 26:19versus gold since Nixon severed the tie to gold.
- 26:22The printing press is just warming up and why this trend is
- 26:26far, far from over. And here's I guess the tweet or
- 26:29the meme. What would the value be today if
- 26:32you bought $1000 worth of gold at the bottom?
- 26:36What would it be worth today if you bought a thousands worth in
- 26:391970? And look at that chart.
- 26:41Almost 60. I was born in 1970, Man, just to
- 26:46think that if my parents had bought a few ounces of gold for
- 26:48me, where I'd be sitting right now, it'd be wonderful.
- 26:52But the important key takeaways in yellow.
- 26:55This is a story about the US dollar systematically and
- 27:00relentlessly depreciating. We get it so mixed up.
- 27:04It's so easy for us to do, to think all the the value of gold
- 27:08is going up, the value of silver, the price of silver is
- 27:11going up. No, right.
- 27:14The value of the US dollar is going down.
- 27:18Silver and gold are the benchmark.
- 27:20Silver and gold have been the reserve currency of all time,
- 27:26OK? It's not the value of silver and
- 27:28gold going up and down. Silver and gold are the steady
- 27:31line. They are the benchmark.
- 27:34It's the value. It's the price.
- 27:37It's the value of the US dollar or the euro or the yen or the
- 27:41Confederate dollar or the Roman, whatever the heck they called
- 27:45their currency, or the Dutch kroner.
- 27:47I don't know. But you know what I'm saying.
- 27:49Silver and gold are the benchmark, right?
- 27:53They are the are the measure by which everything else is with
- 27:57the standard by which everything else is measured.
- 28:02Let's go talk about the billionaire in in China.
- 28:06This is interesting. Vince Lancey brought up a very,
- 28:09very interesting point just to show us how the mainstream media
- 28:13in the West is not, is not giving the silver market the the
- 28:21attention that it deserves. This one came from David
- 28:23Bateman. He's the silver billionaire.
- 28:26He has like 15,000,000 ounces of silver.
- 28:28Now he says, yeah, come on, Bloomberg, what the heck?
- 28:32So Vince Lancey said this, isn't it interesting how we have a guy
- 28:36named David Bateman who's a billionaire who almost doubled
- 28:40his money in silver, right? He is a huge he's our new Hunt
- 28:43brothers for a time of not one story on it right.
- 28:49There's no been no big news stories about David Bateman, the
- 28:52silver billionaire. But as soon as the Chinese
- 28:57billionaire shorts it right, This is the 15,000,000 out short
- 29:01that the paper tiger has. Bloomberg is all over the story.
- 29:07OK, that and that that's a good thing for us.
- 29:11You know why? Excuse me?
- 29:17Allergies are getting bad here in Saint Louis Because the
- 29:20snow's melting. That's a good thing because,
- 29:26excuse me, that shows us we've got a lot of room for
- 29:29improvement, a lot of room for growth in the precious metals
- 29:32markets. All right, guys, have a great
- 29:35day. Thanks for being here.
- 29:36Don't forget, subscribe to the channel.
- 29:38Thank you for the Super chats. Let me make sure we didn't get
- 29:40any super chats today. Oh, my gosh, we did.
- 29:43Hold on a second here. Holy moly, $20, TWO, 09.
- 29:50Thank you so much for that super chat, my friend.
- 29:53Wow, that is awesome. Happy Super Bowl Sunday, we got
- 29:56one for 999 from OK Here we'll talk about this great point from
- 30:02Disco. Glad you mentioned the
- 30:04tokenization of gold. The SWIFT system will go away
- 30:07and Ripple XRP will be how transactions are done.
- 30:11I recommend stackers look into that.
- 30:13What do you think? I don't know a lot about XRP,
- 30:16but I will say that I do know that there are a lot of people
- 30:20who think that XRP will, like you said, replace the
- 30:23international banking system. Right now, the SWIFT system, I
- 30:26get international wires sent from time to time.
- 30:29It's cumbersome, it's complicated and it's expensive.
- 30:34And yes, blockchain technology and a lot of people think XRP,
- 30:38from what I understand is the answer can like make
- 30:41instantaneous transfers of money all over the world and it almost
- 30:47zero expense now it feels like there's like what, a two or
- 30:51three or 4% charge anytime I get a wire, especially an
- 30:55international wire, it is ridiculous.
- 30:58Thank you Disco for the for the Super chat.
- 31:02And I do agree with you, Kelly. Oh my gosh, you guys are super
- 31:05generous today. Silver will hit over $100 this
- 31:09week. So excited for the markets to
- 31:12open. I hope you're right, Kelly, and
- 31:14I certainly think that that could be a strong possibility
- 31:17here very, very, very, very soon.
- 31:21But please, everybody be responsible and be prepared for
- 31:25big volatility. But yes, you know, I kind of
- 31:28covered a lot of it in this live stream.
- 31:30I've never seen a set up like we're in right now, right?
- 31:35And remember, you know, we are living in historic times for the
- 31:39precious metals and we often don't realize history is
- 31:43happening until after the fact. Did in wow, you did in ducked on
- 31:48diving ducked on diving ducked on says how is silver not work
- 31:54worth more than gold when it's needed for so many things?
- 31:57That's an argument a lot of people make.
- 31:58Thank you for the Super chat. Diving ducked on.
- 32:02Yeah. Like right now you hear
- 32:04different numbers, but for each one ounce of gold that's dug up
- 32:09out of the ground, there's somewhere between 7 and 10
- 32:12ounces of silver. The ratio of mining is like 1
- 32:16gold to let's say 10 for silver. And we know that the gold to
- 32:20silver ratio from a price perspective is what, 5650,
- 32:25somewhere in the 50 to 60 range right now.
- 32:28But when you couple that with the fact that, yes, most of the
- 32:31silver now that's coming out of the ground is being consumed by
- 32:36industry or a large portion of it, it doesn't make sense,
- 32:39right? It makes no sense at all.
- 32:42We got the guy. I mean, just from a ratio
- 32:45perspective. So I agree with you, diving
- 32:50duck, Don, it makes no sense. So to think that we couldn't go
- 32:55to a 15 to 1 or even a 20 to 1 gold to silver ratio.
- 32:59If we were to 20 to 1 gold to silver ratio, meaning it only
- 33:03took 20 ounces of silver, one tube of American Silver Eagles
- 33:08to get one ounce of gold, we would have a silver price close
- 33:11to $250 per oz. OK.
- 33:15But yeah, all the gold that's ever been mined in the history
- 33:19of the world, pretty much all of it.
- 33:22Some of if it's been lost, some of it's sank in pirate
- 33:25shipwrecks, pirate shipwrecks, whatever, all the gold is still
- 33:29around. It's sitting in vaults.
- 33:31It's maybe it's at your house, I don't know.
- 33:35But a lot, most of the silver right, is now being consumed.
- 33:39And then on top of that, we know every single year for the last
- 33:45five, maybe now six years straight, the world is consuming
- 33:50more silver than the, the mining sector can produce.
- 33:55So essentially for the last five to six years, the world has been
- 33:59borrowing silver from the above ground silver rainy day fund,
- 34:05right? All during a time where since
- 34:072016, almost 10 years, the the amount of silver being produced
- 34:12by the miners has been trending downward, not falling off a
- 34:16Cliff, and I'm not going to say that, but trending downwards.
- 34:19And we know on top of that, because the silver price has
- 34:24been manipulated, some people speculate by the COMEX in the
- 34:28LBMA for decades, like that 1974 memo that talked about inducing
- 34:33volatility in the precious metals market.
- 34:35So people wouldn't want to buy precious metals, right?
- 34:38Because the price of silver has been kept artificially low.
- 34:43No one, there's been no incentive, very little
- 34:46incentive. Only the sharpest cookies were
- 34:49out there exploring for silver. OK.
- 34:52And so the pipeline of new projects is very limited.
- 34:56Tomorrow I'm going to be interviewing Galen McNamara, the
- 34:59CEO of Silver 47, right? They've got like 3 huge silver
- 35:04projects, all in the United States, one in Alaska.
- 35:07I almost said Canada. Canada is not part of the United
- 35:10States. One in Alaska, one in New
- 35:14Mexico, Mogian and one end of the Hughes project in in Nevada.
- 35:20But not many people have been exploring for silver.
- 35:23And to make things even crazier, right?
- 35:27You know this already, but I'll share it with you because that
- 35:30makes us feel warm and fuzzy. 70% of the world silver that's
- 35:35produced every year actually comes as a by product of mining
- 35:40of things like copper, lead and zinc.
- 35:43OK, So they can't just like they aren't silver explorers, they
- 35:47aren't silver producers. They can't just turn the knob
- 35:50and say, well, you know what, the silver price is up.
- 35:53We're just going to dig up silver.
- 35:54No, OK. And copper mines, which is one
- 35:57of the biggest sources, guys, it takes like, and there's a copper
- 36:02shortage too. OK, There's going to be a copper
- 36:04shortage. There is.
- 36:05It takes like decades and decades to build a new copper
- 36:10mine. They're massive, right?
- 36:11And to make even more interesting, I heard Ross Beatty
- 36:16say this years ago. The new copper mines, they don't
- 36:20have as much silver in them as the older ones.
- 36:23I think the newer ones are deeper in the ground, like all
- 36:26the easy silver. Think about this.
- 36:29All the easy silver, all the easy gold, all the easy copper.
- 36:34It's already been mined, OK? The stuff that was near the
- 36:39surface that was easy to find and easy to mine.
- 36:43Bye, bye. It's all been gone.
- 36:45Now the world is in a scramble to get its hands on silver and
- 36:50gold. You know, look, let's just say
- 36:53basement dwellers, my, my fellow gold and silver enthusiasts, we
- 36:58are on the forefront. And most people haven't even
- 37:02woke up to this yet, right? The world has grown
- 37:05exponentially. The world has become wealthier.
- 37:08The world needs more and more and more silver and copper,
- 37:13right? And at the same time, the world
- 37:15financial system is in a state of array.
- 37:18The world needs more gold because gold, right, has always
- 37:23been the world's reserve currency.
- 37:25I think we got a lot of great things to look forward to.
- 37:28I'm sorry I went on so long this morning, guys, but man, these
- 37:32next few weeks in particular for silver, have the potential to
- 37:37get very, very interesting. Buckle up.
- 37:40OK? It's going to be a wild, wild
- 37:42ride, but we'll do it together, please.
- 37:44Again, we're trying to get the 80,000 subscribers.
- 37:47Really appreciate you. Right.
- 37:49It's a big deal. Thanks for being here.
- 37:51Take care, and I will see you. Yeah, you soon.
- 37:56Thank you.
