Yo, welcome to Simply Bitcoin live.
Are your number one source for the peaceful Bitcoin Revolution.
Record-breaking use culture. Medic Warfare will be your guide
through the separation of money and state.
We are aware that we've had some audio difficulties.
The last couple days. We are aware of it, we're trying
to fix it. It's been a spend an hour or so
on with the restream support yesterday.
Let us know in the comments if we are still having issues.
But anyways, today we have a very special episode.
We say it in the Beginning, this is the separation of money
state. We are living through it.
And, you know, we've been covering operation choke point
2.0 2.0 like Nick Carter has been putting it about the
state's attempt at making it difficult for Bitcoin businesses
to bank themselves. And We've also been covering
that the fact that they used a lot of these excuses, whether it
was the FTX blow up and recently vsv be Bank blow up as
justifications in order to isolate the industry from the
Legacy Financial system and I know what a lot of bitcoiners
were say. It's like Nico, we don't need
the Legacy Financial system. You're absolutely right.
But the reality is that a lot of people do use the on and off
ramps. And when we're in this
transition, when Bitcoin is transitioning to become the
global Reserve currency, which I'd simply Bitcoin.
We wholeheartedly believe that it will do so because Bitcoin is
just frankly better money. That was one of the attack.
Vectors, it was inevitable that this was going to happen and we
have some breaking news coming out of the United Kingdom of the
UK title is not clickbait Finance, halts, deposits and
withdrawals. As for customers in the UK and
also NatWest limits customer customers crypto transfers,
citing scam concerns, right? You don't know what to do with
your money, Big. Daddy government is going to
step in and they're going to tell you what you can and cannot
buy with your money. Mind you, I don't believe those
things. I think they're excuses and we
know that the UK has a very predominant Central Bank.
Digital currency program The and the government is speaking
wonders about it and how, you know, it's the next best thing.
But we've talked about CBD sees many time, right?
If you live in a country that has dealt developed Financial
rails, like the UK, right? Why do you really need a central
bank digital currency? Well, the reason is simple.
Government's want to be able to maintain and keep the privilege
of being able to create money for free that everyone else has
to work for. And that's really what, I
believe, seat. Central Bank, digital currencies
are all about it is as much. Much as they say it's about
making payment systems more efficient that's not true.
They want to control money and the reality is when you have
something like Bitcoin It's out of the hands of the government.
The government does not control the monetary policy and they
want to be able to maintain that.
So the I believe that's what it's about.
And we were having suspicions about that yesterday when we
found more data that Justice doesn't come from Simply
Bitcoin, right? Because we understand we
understand our biases comes from members of the community as well
that are starting to see the writing on the wall.
Was it really about, you know, the Financial Security t or of
the country? Was it really about you know
trying to slow down the competition or at least slow
down the adoption of Bitcoin. So we're going to talk about all
that, please let us know. Like I said, we are having some
audio issues yesterday. If I'm still clipping, let us
down, let us let us know in the comments and we will try to fix
it. Anyways, I want to bring up my
awesome. Cohoes always optimistic, how
you doing Opti? I am doing.
Wonderful. I mean, in the face of
everything going on in the world right now, Bitcoin starts
pumping, it's just absolutely beautiful.
So let's just tell, you know, hey I know we all want cheap
SATs but I'm hoping that this price movement just continues to
go upwards and prove our point for us that you cannot trust
institutions and Bitcoin was made for this moment.
And here we are. It seems like the financial
world is blowing up quicker than ever and yet.
Now we have Bitcoin. So if we are facing what a lot
of people are talking about on Twitter, At least we have
Bitcoin and Bitcoin was meant for this moment.
So, hey, man, it's hard. Not to be optimistic on a day
like today, opt he's always the world could be burning down.
There could be a meteor and go to opt, he's house because he's
having a good time. Anyways, I also want to bring up

you a Bitcoin ER that lives near those failed?
U.s. banks with people in line waiting to rescue some money.
Please go and print some Bitcoin Flyers with just simple
explanation of what what is bitcoin and and how to get it
easily and fast in exchange for the for those fake Fiat money.
Then hand over those flyers to those poor Normie, people show
them the path to the light and freedom.
But please take notes about how many people are in total in
line. How many accept your Bitcoin
flyer? How many are willing to exchange
their Fiat money for Bitcoin. How many will call you scammer?
Will be a very interesting experiment.
I absolutely love that. And the reason I wanted to
highlight that today is because you have to take agency as an
individual, right? We all play A Part here,
specifically at simply Bitcoin, obviously, you guys know we make
content, but it falls down to you.
I'm sure a lot of you had this experience.
You're the annoying Bitcoin. Her in the family, you're
telling your parents, you're telling your uncle, you're
telling your sister and they're like, I don't want to invite him
over anymore because all he This talk about Bitcoin, but this is
important. This is what the peaceful
Revolution is all about. You have to spread the, the
Bitcoin message, you have to get people out of Fiat politics.
You have to make them understand that a lot of their woes, a lot
of the financial hardships that their enduring are not
necessarily coming from. They're not coming from these
political divisions. They these are distractions and
political parties, all around the world, they do this so.
Well, they blame the Other side from a lot of the pull up for a
lot of the economic issues, a lot of the hardships that people
are going through were us bitcoiners.
We actually know what's going on.
The reality is a lot of these difficulties are stemming from
the fact that the government is able to print money at no cost
to them in the process. They're diluting everyone else's
wealth, right? And it's a wealth redistribution
mechanism from the half knots, right?
From the lower and middle classes that don't have the
means to save an assets. Therefore benefit from asset
Relation its wealth, redistribution back to the
government and back to the very wealthy.
It's not that the rich get richer net per se, it's that
under the current system. That's how it's structured,
right? Every time they print money, the
rich do get richer and the poor do get poor, but that comes from
money printing that comes from just creating this money out of
thin air. That's when it, that's where it
comes from, it doesn't come from anywhere else and it falls down,
too. Ooh, us to educate enough
people. Now in the global South in
developing countries, I think that this what I just said is
obvious, everyone understands if you live in Argentina with 99
percent inflation or Venezuela. You understand what I just said
it's not hard to understand what I just said and you're like
yeah, that's incredibly obvious. It's really in the developed
World in countries that have Financial privilege that, you
know people. Hey you know, 6% inflation.
Shit. It's not that bad.
We all know it's not 6% inflation in the u.s., we all
know that the cost of living housing prices Energy prices.
If you include that, it's roughly about 20 percent, that's
the reality. But it's so ingenious what
they've done. They said, yo, it's the other
political side. It's people that have a
different perspective on the world.
They're causing all of your problems.
It's Donald Trump. It's Joe Biden.
No, it's the money printing. It's the money.
You fix the money, you You fix the world and it falls down to
us the individual to push that message out there.
Save as many people as you can around you save the you know,
save your family, save your mother save your father, save
your sister, save your brother, save your uncle you know save
your girlfriend, tell him about Bitcoin and that means there's a
lot of hand-holding there. That means that you know if they
don't know how to completely take self custody, be that Uncle
Jim in your family, hold their hand during the process.
If enough people wake up to the reality that Bitcoin fixes these
problems, we will win, we will win this and there's absolutely
nothing they could do about it. Anyways, Opti, what are your
thoughts on this bro? Well first off, excuse me.
First off shuts out the Darth coin, he kills it in the
telegram group and on stacking news and I really love the
questions that he was asking. You know, how many people are
going to call you a scammer? How many people aren't going to
take the Flyers? And that's just a big Lowell to
me cuz I asked myself the same question all the time when I am
out in real, you know, in real life off Twitter off YouTube, I
look around everywhere. I go whether I'm eating food,
whether I'm going to the grocery store, you know, whether I'm
hanging out with friends, trying to, you know, enjoy enjoy life a
little bit. I always have like the same
moment where I look around and I'm like, how many of the people
around me are actually bitcoiners and as being the
resident crazy Bitcoin her for, I don't know how long now, five
years or whatever. You get, you do get demoralized
and it's almost like Bitcoin was met for this very moment and yet
people are still sleepwalking. I kind of had I think I've been
mentioning it all week where I had that like big short moment
where I look around and I'm like, everyone doesn't realize
that the financial system, almost blew up that the bank's
almost blew up and they are just completely oblivious to this.
And it's kind of something we talked about all the time here
is we know what the problems are, but people still don't know
that there's a solution to this and this is why.
It is so important to continue to beat the drum about Bitcoin.
Maybe it's not so much about saying the b word up front,
maybe it's just planting these seeds asking people certain
questions whether they understand what money is,
whether the understand how Banks work, whether they understand
what inflation is really doing, whether they understand that
they are getting stolen from and they can't save in dollars.
I think these are the ways that we can continue to plant these
seeds because it's becoming more obvious to me than ever that the
world needs Bitcoin now. And more people are waking up to
this. I mean, we see it today, the
Bitcoin price has been pumping today and of course, what's the
Axiom correlation does not mean causation.
But hey, we just saw a huge Mistress of the financial system
and now, the Bitcoin price is pumping.
So it seems like at least if at the very least one person with
big Pockets out there realize is what we've been saying for a
long time that Bitcoin is the solution you need to opt out of
the system. You need.
Need to find a way to store your value.
That is completely parallel to the financial system because
you're just diversifying within the Fiat system.
And if the Fiat system goes belly-up, you're going to lose a
lot of money and now we have a solution.
It's Bitcoin. What's the, what's the height
quote? The roundabout way to fix the
money. People are waking up to it and
as I say all the time, the Bitcoin price is a real-time
metric of people's understanding of what Bitcoin is.
So hey at the very least someone out there.
Well Up to Bitcoins, true potential, Bitcoins value prop
and we are seeing it in the price.
Now will this hold up, you know, we don't like to.
We don't like to speculate too much, but someone woke up and
they're realizing they have to take their money out of the
banking system, and finding alternative.
And that alternative is Bitcoin. Absolutely.
Amen. To that Full Throttle.
What are your thoughts on this, bro?
Where's your where's your head at on this as - what awake
fellas Bitcoin? Not only surviving but thriving.
Great time to be a Bitcoin, ER be the captain of that Bitcoin
ship take on survivors, who want to be saved.
Keep sending out that signal and let's fucking go love it.
Shorts. Wash to the point, I love that
man. Anyways everybody, let's get to
the news. We have a lot to talk about
update on operation chokepoint 2.0.

get yourself a block stream, Jade today and take self custody
of your Bitcoin. All right, ladies and gentlemen,
we always reference this article and we're going to continue
referencing and because Nick Carter did a great job at
summarizing exactly what's going on and I like to read it
sometimes just to provide context specifically for a new
viewers that are just tuning in. So let's talk about operation.
Chokepoint 2.0 and yesterday's episode.
We speculated that a lot of the reasons.
That Signature Bank, which Signature Bank happens to be the
second largest bank. That facilitated a lot of the
crypto and Bitcoin transactions for a lot of these exchanges.
We made the case that it could have been political that they
did. A lot of the incentive or a lot
of the reasons were political anyways.
So Nick Carter this article mind you was in February 8th.
My holy cow, have things escalated.
Since then it goes on to say what began as a trickle is now,
The US government is using the banking sector to organize a
sophisticated, widespread Crackdown against the crypto
industry, and the administration's efforts are no
secret, their Express plainly and memos regulatory guidance
and blog posts. However, the breadth of this
plan spanning virtually every Financial regulator, as well as
it's highly coordinated nature. As even the most steely-eyed,
crypto veterans nervous that crypto businesses might end up
completely unbanked. Stable coins, may be stranded
and unable to manage Flows In and Out of crypto and exchanges
might be Cut off from banking system entirely.
Let's dig in for crypto firms. Obtaining access to the onshore
banking system has always been a challenge even today.
Crypto startups, struggle mightily to get Banks and only a
handful of boutiques serve them. This is why stable coins like
tether found popularity earlier on to facilitate Fiat settlement
where the rails of traditional banking were unavailable.
However in recent weeks, the intensity of efforts to
ring-fenced entire crypto space. In isolated from traditional
banking system as ratchet up. In these as specially, the Biden
Administration is now executing, what appears to be a coordinated
plan that spans multiple agencies to discourage Banks
from dealing with crypto firms. It applies to both traditional
Banks who would serve crypto clients and crypto first firms
aiming to get Bank Charters. It includes Administration
itself, influential members of Congress, the fed the FDIC that
OCC and the doj. Here's a recap of notable
events, concerning Banks and the policy establishment in recent
weeks Okay, that being said, mind you like I said, this
article was written February, 8th, and holy cow.
Have things changed. Since then, this is Warren
tegami, or in togami is a vice president of solutions at block
stream. He said, operation chokepoint
2.0 today. I heard this from the management
of a small Bank. This was after, right?
The SV, the Takeover of Silicon Valley Bank and this was after
the Takeover of Signature Bank by New York.
Laters goes on today. It goes on to say today.
Basically, and this is a message from his friend since today,
basically, every Bank Regulators calling every bank and asking
for the liquidity report, asking whether they plan to apply for
the new fed program and asking whether they have any exposure
to quote crypto, they're definitely trying to ensure that
smaller Banks don't touch this area, right?
So again smaller banks are the ones that are trying to, you
know, be competitive. They're trying to get business,
the bigger Banks to hand the big six in the United States
becomes. Very did, we're becomes very
easy for them to control and mind you.
We have Kaitlin long Caitlin, Long applied, for a Federal
Banking Charter and her bank was fully reserved, and they still
turned it down. Anyways, moving on to the next
one. This is Radar Radar hits
Signature Bank board member and former Congressman former
Congressman Barney. Frank says, quote Regulators
want Wanted to send a very strong, Auntie crypto message in
shutting down the bank. Quote, there was no insolvency
based on the fundamentals and this isn't only in the u.s. we
covered the u.s. news yesterday. The breaking news of today and
the title of the video by Nance halts deposits and withdrawals
for customers in the UK. What was the reasoning Finance
holding LTD? The world's largest crypto
exchange is suspending deposits in withdrawal Services via Bank
transfers and card payments for UK customers after its Local
banking partner stop providing support for transactions in
British Pounds paysafe a london-based online payments.
Company said, it would stop providing one of its products to
buy Nance customers in the UK. Citing local Regulators approach
to crypto assets paysafe, didn't say, whether it would drop
support for other crypto companies as well.
Quote, we have concluded that the UK regulatory environment in
relation to crypto is too challenging to offer this
service at this time. And so this is prudent decision
on our part taken in. Abundance of caution by Nance
halted with deposits and withdrawals and pounds for new
users on Monday and will suspend such transactions for all
customers on May 22nd a spokesman said, in an email on
Tuesday, quote, our team is working hard to find an
alternative solution. We've heard that before, right?
The suspension reflects rapidly worsening conditions for the
crypto sector in the UK. After blanks including HS HSBC
and NatWest group, put restrictions on how much money
their clients can. Move to digital asset exchanges
while UK politicians have sought to embrace crypto.
In the past year, the financial regulator has repeatedly warned
that investors in the asset asset class risk.
Losing all their money. Let's take a look at NatWest.
This is an article from Reuters NatWest limits, customers crypto
transfers, citing scam concerns from Tuesday, customer transfers
to crypto currency. Exchanges will be limited to
5,000 pounds roughly, 6,000 US dollars per 30 day period.
No more than a thousand dollars per day.
Regulators around the world have warned of the risks of scams and
fraud in the largely unregulated, word of crypto
trading. We remember how Reuters treats
El Salvador. We know how this platform feels
about the peaceful Bitcoin Revolution and it's just
interesting how they frame that Regulators around the world have
warned of the risk of scams. What about the risks of
inflation? Why don't?
Why is that never talked about? What about if you live in
Argentina and You have 99 percent inflation.
What about that risk, huh? And anyways, connect the dots
because this is what we do on simply Bitcoin.
IMF, this is a coin Des article, I'm reading the headline for
audio listeners IMF had warned G20 widespread crypto.
Use would impact Banks. Isn't that a coincidence that
this article came out May 13th? Isn't it a coincidence?
That this by Nance announcement came out, March 14th
specifically after what happened over the weekend, signature
seized by New York regulators and the SSV be blow up.
So, could it be? Could it be that they're using
this as a justification to go after the industry?
Obviously, from our perspective. It looks incredibly obvious that
that's exactly what they're doing.
But anyways, I could be wrong here.
I could be wrong here, but these are a lot of coincidences, these
are a whole lot of coincidences. Those articles are coming out,
very on very similar dates, and you know, Nick, Carter's why we
reference this article so much? And we're going to continue to
call it operation. Chokepoint 2.0.
He summer hehehe. And that article, he summarizes
all the different moves that they're doing.
They're hell-bent on pushing Central Bank, digital currencies
to the populist, even though they're not needed.
We have very efficient payment Platforms in the developed
world. We have PayPal venmo cash app.
Do we need more efficient payment systems or do we need a
money that doesn't steal from us, right?
So that's the question that I have for you guys.
It sure looks incredibly obvious to me, this is, this is a, this
is crazy stuff, but we say it in the very beginning of the show,
this is the separation of money and state bunker down, take self
custody of your Bitcoin and honestly if you're going to take
self custody, you better do it in steel and there's no better
place to do it. Then B plates.

What are your thoughts on on everything that's going on, bro?
Well, I've been saying it for a while, you know, I speak in
memes. Highly regarded.
I just said I everything just boils down to a couple
sentences, and I just keep thinking of the they're scared
meme on Twitter. We're like this is very
obviously back to what we've been saying for a while.
Remember what Christine Lagarde said, if there's an exit route,
people will use it. Well, Bitcoin is that exit
route, and they're realizing that they basically blew up
their system. I really like this comment right
here, Lou for Ingo, and let me pull it up real quick, because I
think he kind of hit the nail on the head.
He goes BTC lived. They tried to take down crypto
payment, rails, and the banks were weaker and broke first.
And here we are, you know, they just bailed out the banks or
not, bailed out the bank's, whatever, you know, kind of
doublespeak they want. But now, we're seeing a day
later that they're trying to stop capital from flowing into
and also, I guess, out of Bitcoin, and Bitcoin.
So, As we always say this is good for Bitcoin because I say
it all the time, if your government are your bank want
you to stop using Bitcoin, to me, that's a sign that you want
to hold and use Bitcoin. Remember what we say all the
time Bitcoin is that roundabout way to fix the Fiat system?
The Fiat system is fundamentally broken.
The incentives are broken. The system is broken, and it's
just on life support and it seems like the FED may have
blown it up again. And these financial crisis has
are happening at a Your pace. Then before we had 2008, we had
20/20. And now we have 20 23, so I
don't know if you know, quick Mass, they're happening a lot
faster. Anyways.
Tyrannical overreach is always some of the best advertisement
for Bitcoin. Bitcoin is truly a political
money. It's completely outside of the
Fiat system completely decentralized, which means no
one's controlling it. Which means that the people in
control, the central planners hate it and they're trying to do
their best to scramble and get control.
So, They continue to panic, they continue to Gaslight the masses
and they continue to fight the inevitable.
Bitcoin continues to win blocks, come in roughly every 10
minutes. The price is going up.
Every signal in Bitcoin is basically an all-time high hash
rate is exploding. I think the world is waking up
to the fact that you cannot have a meaningful amount of money in
these Banks, without the very real risk of losing everything.
You have losing your shirt and the world seems to Be teetering
on global recession and yet we still get the Talking Heads
telling us that we're in the best economy that the world has
ever seen. And I know you guys are feeling
the sticker shock. I know you guys are feeling the
inflation. The shrink flashin out there,
like you can't lie to us that much longer.
I think the world is waking up. I know we are very hyper focused
on this as bitcoiners as people that are watching and waiting
for things to blow up. But I think the average person
is waking up to what we've been saying.
Saying for years you know bitcoiners I've been right and
the inflation we're seeing now is further proof that we are
right. The fact that they had to bail
out the banks. Again it's further proof that we
are right and the UK has been very hostile to bitcoin.
And in my opinion the UK is just going to have fun staying poor,
we say it all the time and it's like it's just further proof
that the UK Burek bureaucracy is showing that they do not have
their citizens best interest in mind and in my opinion, as an
individual. What would that mean my?
You know my little Radars would be beaming right now.
My red flags are beaming and this would mean I should be
holding Bitcoin, you need to have at the very least one
percent of your wealth in Bitcoin because as Greg Faust
says it's insurance for the Fiat systems collapse.
You just need to hold a little bit, take Bitcoin in the self
custody opt-out provide the value to your fellow man and
saving Bitcoin. It's a very simple process and
yet people still don't understand that the problem.
Um is the inherent fragility of the Fiat system?
But hey this is why we show up every single day to try to
spread that message. I'm into that, bro.
Anyways, full Full Throttle. What are your thoughts on all
this bro? What are your thoughts on
everything that's going on? I think the banks are scared and
I think they should be scared. There's people like me and you
putting all their savings into Bitcoin.
They're rolling over their superannuation or their 401 k
into Bitcoin. They're losing control slowly
but surely in my own experience. I'm trying to convert anyone who
will listen and get him to save him Bitcoin even if it's a small
amount like $50 a day. They just to get their foot in
the door. Big coins, been awesome.
For me it's it's changed my life and that is the best
advertisement that you can have it as a guest as a company or an
entity which will be comes out of company.
But it's a entity. It's a it's a free to enter
Global monetary solution to the problems we have and it's only
getting stronger and That they there's all kinds of food and
blockages that governments and institutions, try and put in
front of bitcoiners, but Bitcoin doesn't stop.
There's always a way to get your hands on bitcoin.
It may it may change the map and the road to get there to get
your hands on sets, but there's nothing they can do to stop it.
We've all heard this before. They keep The keep lying and
fighting and all the bullshit. But as I said at the start
Bitcoin is not only surviving is thriving and it is Unstoppable.
Yeah, 100% 100%. You can't stop what's happening?
You can't stop the peaceful Revolution.
Bitcoins incentives are greater than anything, they throw at us,
and that is exactly why we'll win.
Anyways, I don't even know. We're going to talk about there
in the culture. Which makes me very excited.
Let's, let's get to the culture. Let's do this.

Anyways, Opti, it's all yours. Let's go.
All right. Well you already know culture
when I bring in guests, I like to feature them and talk about
their Bitcoin Journey, why they are bitcoiners.
Why they so adamant to spread the Bitcoin culture, or
basically the Bitcoin signal and we drop this on our sub stack.
And I'm just going to pose this question to Full Throttle
hottel. So why do you use Bitcoin?
Why are you so adamant on spreading Bitcoin?
And then also on top of it, you kind of mention.
How did Bitcoin change your life, bro?
Five years ago, the the anarchist inside of me came
across Bitcoin and it made perfect sense.
I was at a time in my life, where things weren't going too.
Well, but I had some money set aside for a rainy day and I'll
speak to my wife and put it all into Bitcoin as I guess a lot of
people, you know, have since that, the price went up, the
price went down, you know, it was a learning lessons along the
way about being a hustler I started.
Shit coining a bit about two years into being a hurdler.
And I came across simply Bitcoin.
And I had this young fellow and this guy with these big fuck-off
glasses telling me how she cleans his pure gambling and it
just resonated with me it made perfect sense.
So I decided at that point scale out of all my shit coins and go
Bitcoin only and ever since focusing on bitcoin, it has Made
me save more respect. My time, more made me a better.
Father made me a better person. It made me plan for the future
and made me want better things. And here I am today man talking
to you guys. I love it bro this is as the
meme always says you know you don't change Bitcoin Bitcoin
changes you and it really blows my mind how you know a hard
money such as Bitcoin just just changes everything about you and
you really re-evaluate everything you've ever done in
your life and every choice you've ever done and you kind of
touched it on here. And I saw you retweeted.
This is from one of our friends, Morpheus BTC.
And he says, are you stacking for your Emily.
And here's the meme that I continuously push.
Buy Bitcoin for your last name. Not your first and I love how
you just mentioned it that you know you started stacking
Bitcoin for your family and you know II don't have a family yet
but I hope one day to have a family and I hope to just create
a bunch of bitcoiners. So kudos to you, bro.
And how hard has it been to orange pill your family?
I really difficult night. I've been banging on to them
about the Bitcoin since I was like 6 K and I'll get every time
we have a family gathering. I'm logged all those spit out a
few sentences and then I always move, move the conversation to
bitcoin so far, I orange peeled My nephew.
He's a, he's a Bitcoin miner. I my sister-in-law.
She was a bit quieter, she just recently passed away, but she
was a bit coiner. Lots of friends, one of my
managers, I work with, he's become a Bitcoin miner.
So just, it's a daily struggle, trying to convert these people,
but slowly slowly. The seeing the light and through
your actions in life, people will want Become a Bitcoin.
I when they see how happy you can be, and who you are
becoming, I absolutely love it throttle.
I say that all the time, you know, be the best version of
yourself. And this is how we spread the
Bitcoin signal live, a good life and people will watch some as
that as well. And I think it's kind of at
first. I thought it was a naive take
and now I think I'm understanding like this is the
most powerful, powerful thing we can do as bitcoiners is be as
healthy physically. And mentally is possible and
continuously spread that good does Good Vibes into the world
and then a little on the dark side.
We kind of touched on this before we went recording, but I
saw some of your tweets. This was actually in February
14th, but I think a month later, it's even harder.
You said it's safe to say. The only thing that is currently
fair price is Bitcoin. And as we're seeing in the
world, it's safe to say that there's only one free market
left in the world and it is Bitcoin.
There is only one thing completely outside of the system
and it is Bitcoin. And how you feeling today in
regards to everything going on in the world.
I know. Personally, I've never felt
better being a bit corner but I love getting the same
confirmation from other bitcoiners on the other side of
the world, seeing the same exact thing as I am.
Unbelief is fuck right now. My the the the world seems to be
falling apart slowly. This week is falling apart a
little bit quicker, maybe Bitcoins holding its own.
It's it's I honestly thought that if banks started to fall
that the Bitcoin price would go down with it but he's done the
complete opposite of what I thought.
So, I'm glad I emptied out my bank account last week with the
bit of money, I had II have my DCA, but I put in extra this
this week, just because I had it and I called and I had and I had
no, no bill. So I thought how I'm just going
to go all in with everything I got and what a great decision,
you know, be coined. It can make you feel really
good. It can also break your heart at
the same time but you know it's that old saying that I've heard
over and over again it's not timing the game, it's time in
the game. Yeah, I honestly I think that is
worth repeating to everyone out there.
I even had some friends saying the same thing.
You know. Hey, should I have some cash on
the sidelines is the praise going to dump with all this
crazy stuff in the world and I'm just telling them, like, look,
you know what do I know? I don't know what's going on
with the market, but, hey, that's definitely a possibility.
But Max Payne seems to be praised pumping and to your
point. I was just like, yeah, well, I'm
not selling my Bitcoin, I'm just going to Hold my Bitcoin time in
the market beats timing, the market every single time.
And so if you have fiea on the cylons, if you're waiting for a
mythical price out there, you need to smash by that Bitcoin
right now, dump your Fiat, the best time to stack Bitcoin is
yesterday. The next time is literally right
now smashed by your Bitcoin. Okay, I got some more tweets
from you throttle. And here you go, you actually
said the same thing right here, but this was a while ago, you
know, I empty my bank account on the back of the exchange.
He's a dirty Mistresses. I used to dump and run my SATs
with the cold storage I will see her again soon but now I'm
satisfied. Absolutely love it.
And here we are. What's your thoughts on?
You know, spreading the signal of taking Bitcoin into self
custody and then actually actually, before we do that are
you a DCA or a smash by kind of guy?
Really. That's so I have not have my
weekly dco and if I get extra cash I just fucking smash it.
Like I don't hold on to it. I love it.
Yeah, I I like to call myself a weekly Fiat capitulate, ER,
whenever I have Fiat I capitulate my Fiat as soon as
possible and stacks at and then this last one and then we can go
in any other rabbit hole. And this is something that I
also believe as well as you that that I really enjoy and it's
another tweet. You said there's going to be
many different use cases that I like and dislike about Bitcoin
as we find out what Bitcoin is and kind of back to an idea of
just Bitcoin is so many different things to different
people. And yet on the fundamental
level, it is just the most stable thing to store value
going into the future. And I think everyone puts or
describes their own value to bitcoin.
And the further you get down the rabbit hole, the more mind-blown
you become about Bitcoin and I'm as a born-again Libertarian I
would say someone that doesn't like someone telling me what to
do I found that, who am I to tell people?
What their best case and best use cases of Bitcoin?
You will use Bitcoin how you want to.
And I think that's one of the most important things that we
can talk about like saving Bitcoin.
Use your Bitcoin. You know what that?
Be a degenerate Trader if you want.
I wouldn't recommend it. But hey Bitcoin is different
things to everyone. And who am I to tell you how to
use your money and I absolutely love this meme.
Or this tweet that you put out there, bro, is this the same
type of vein that you're talking about?
Exactly. These, you know it's a bit coin
us as being different things to me over the years a lot right
now it's all about saving for my family.
And my kids, I've got to the point where I've set my kids up
with what I wanted to leave them.
I'm really happy about that now. Now, the next part of my journey
is focusing on myself and my wife for our retirement, living
off Bitcoin. I absolutely love it.
Alright, okay, one last exercise for throttle huddle, if there is
someone out there that is either on the fence or shit coining,
what would be your message to them to orange?
Peel them and make them a toxic Bitcoin Maxi quote, on quote?
I would say stop fucking around sell all your shit coins,
Bitcoin, only Bitcoins the way if the current times aren't they
a signal to you? That everything else is a shit
coin you deserve what you get Oof.
All right, let's go. All right.
Well for thought of hot oil, really appreciate if there's
last any. Last little bits of wisdom by
all means, drop it and we'll move into the mean review.
You know, last little bits of wisdom, I look all I can say
fellas that if anyone out there who has superannuation or 401K
in being managed by other people.
My advice is to take control of your own money, your own future,
your own retirement funds, and roll it over into a self-managed
super fund, where you are. The master, you get to decide
where the money goes and If you like me, it's all going into
Bitcoin and in the near future I will reap the rewards of saving
in this beautiful. Beautiful monetary thing called
Bitcoin Yeah listen that's cool motherfucking bitch I absolutely
love it. Yeah man, take back your
destiny. Take back your life.
If you're not seeing what we're seeing today, eggs of all days.
If you aren't aware of what's actually going on in the world,
you really need to wake up and get on the Escape boats.
Now before it really, really does get out of control because
as far as we're concerned as bitcoiners, we've Definitely got
our paranoia hats on, but it does seem like the powers that
be have lost control and you need to be saving some Bitcoin
to protect yourself, going into the future.
So I couldn't agree more. I I say the same thing to anyone
that will listen. And then actually actually
before we go on throttle what is your what is your orange pill
strategy? Do you Do you actually go hard,
orange, killing people, or do you just kind of plant the seeds
and give them the concepts that we always talked about?
I think honestly might all go too hard at the start.
That's part of my problem. I'm more like.
And I grabbed him by the shirt. Why don't you see what I see
what's wrong with you. They like some people react to
that and they see my passion and they want in on that.
But I think I need to change my attacks so I can get more
people. Orange peels.
Perfect. Love it.
Hold on.
Okay, good comments. I'm going to cover them in the
mean review. Hold on.
