1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:04,120 Yo, an old school Wall Street trader who just predicted 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:08,440 exactly what the Bitcoin price would be on the 14th of March 3 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:13,280 from 5 months ago is now making an even more interesting 4 00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:15,920 prediction. I mean he hit the nail on the 5 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,120 head. He said exactly the date, he 6 00:00:18,120 --> 00:00:21,160 said exactly the price, and this was like 6 months ago. 7 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:25,120 It was absolutely surreal. Could this be the new Bitcoin 8 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,040 Nissan algae? We're going to talk about it. 9 00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:33,520 He is now predicting A440K Bitcoin in the not too distant 10 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:37,480 future and is making the case that we're watching a once in 11 00:00:37,480 --> 00:00:40,680 100 year event today. We're going to be breaking down 12 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:44,200 this bold prediction, whether it's true, whether it's BS where 13 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,800 the Bitcoin Twitter is just completely tired and bored and 14 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,560 they're just tired of the chip solidation have something they 15 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:52,720 need something to talk about. We're going to be talking about 16 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:54,200 all of that. We're going to be unpacking it. 17 00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,760 It's going to be a great show, but before we jump into it, 18 00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,040 smash the like button. I'm going to bring up Opti. 19 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:01,040 I'm going to bring up our guest Muzman. 20 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:04,640 I'm going to bring up our other guests, Mateo Muzman from 21 00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,280 lightning ventures. Of course, Mateo from the orange 22 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:08,920 pull up. All right, everybody, no more 23 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:10,880 delay. Let's jump straight into today's 24 00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:12,600 news. So what am I talking about? 25 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,760 I mean, this was this was pretty crazy. 26 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,680 I mean, you know, the saying comes into play, right? 27 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:20,840 A a broken clock is right twice or something, something along 28 00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:22,640 those lines. So I mean, this could be 29 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,080 absolute luck, but it could also be something deeper. 30 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:30,160 I don't know, who knows? So this was from November 5th of 31 00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,920 2024. This is Josh Mandel. 32 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,400 Josh Mandel, apparently, you know, you never know whether 33 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:40,200 something's true online or not. He's an he's an ex Wall Street 34 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:44,160 trader from Salomon Brothers. But it gets really crazy so 35 00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:45,880 check it out and it's all cryptic and stuff. 36 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:47,840 It's kind of strange. So he says. 37 00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:50,920 I hope that I have established a little credibility with a few of 38 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,160 you so that this will help. This time is different. 39 00:01:54,440 --> 00:02:02,960 The 4th turning is upon us. Thursday 1171162531425 When 84 40 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,600 becomes the base Bitcoin calls will melt their face. 41 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:12,040 This is how you get ahead by I bit calls in size instead. 12:50 42 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:15,080 You'll ride it up the stock. It soars into the skies. 43 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,160 Don't sell the call and exercise. 44 00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:20,960 See the path of Pistol Pete. Try a slug and then repeat. 45 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,120 Look every day at close and Lowe's. 46 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:27,520 When 84 is on the dot, the car will launch a real whole shot. 47 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,880 Feel the GS, hear the roar. The coin won't stop 360 more. 48 00:02:31,920 --> 00:02:35,040 A trio force times a grand. That's the top. 49 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,560 The BTC fades. This is how a cowboy trades a 50 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,160 nation state down by the sea. I think I'd call it empathy. 51 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,680 No room for hate nor jealousy. Essentials. 52 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,480 They would be on me. Working if you want, but just 53 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,320 for fun. Think in the shade, play in the 54 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:51,960 sun. I mean, like, what the what the 55 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:53,920 F right? Normally you'd be like, OK, this 56 00:02:53,920 --> 00:02:55,720 is this is cuckoo, this is crazy. 57 00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:02,240 But the Bitcoin price on March 14th, 2025 was exactly, I think 58 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:06,720 it closed that day at exactly $84,000. 59 00:03:06,920 --> 00:03:09,560 And of course, all of Bitcoin Twitter is absolutely using 60 00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:13,280 their minds. He follows up this original poem 61 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:18,640 slash post with MSTR N guys here's the path to 10X multiple 62 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:23,000 the the liquidity I bit calls will offer Sailor would be 63 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,800 amazing. All they have to do is get the 64 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,360 new SEC chair to authorize redemption in kind so that he 65 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:36,200 could use the ETF to lever himself up from 84 K to 444 K, 66 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:40,160 then take his coin. Kind of cryptic, little bit 67 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:43,040 interesting. Obviously the dude becomes an 68 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,200 overnight celebrity and he follows up with some of his 69 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:49,520 latest posts he said. So here's the way I remember the 70 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:54,080 rules working. close between 80K and 84K means the rally can 71 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,600 continue from here, probably up to 100K by month end. 72 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,960 So essentially he's saying that he expects the Bitcoin price can 73 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:02,760 be at 100K by the end of the month. 74 00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:05,920 Who knows if it closes at 84 K exactly. 75 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:09,240 We run the table, historical, historic moves. 76 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,040 Above 84 K, we slip back down and the rally fails. 77 00:04:13,280 --> 00:04:14,960 I didn't really make up these rules. 78 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,040 It's been many years, but this is what I recall. 79 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,120 Good luck. Then, he continues. 80 00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:24,240 This was back in December. I bring to the community decades 81 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:28,360 of mistakes survived, and I hope this experience will assist a 82 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,240 younger generation in their quest to achieve the American 83 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,400 dream. Please, I ask you to never 84 00:04:33,400 --> 00:04:37,360 forget those who need. I mean, he's rhyming. 85 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:42,720 He's kind of interesting. Here is Luke Broyles and he's 86 00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,120 responding. He's quote posting. 87 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,280 He says now that you are Luke, I'm going to own this. 88 00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:54,320 Why is nobody talking about 440, four, 144,402 and 75 cents? 89 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,320 I think he's referring obviously referencing to his Bitcoin price 90 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,400 prediction and the last couple of days he's just been 91 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:05,040 absolutely, you know, just going ham on Giovanni, which was 92 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,600 another Bitcoin lease on Al Gaib, right? 93 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:09,640 You know, the power law, the plan C. 94 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,880 This is just I guess this is like a Plan B some some type of 95 00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:17,560 S type of thing. But he says back to two hours 96 00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,880 ago, he said, sorry, Giovanni, I have no idea. 97 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,720 You were so unpopular as to get 501 likes in half an hour. 98 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,600 Power law was observed, not created by Giovanni. 99 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,920 Plan C, on the other hand, created the quantile model. 100 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:32,560 I live in Giovanni's head down by the river. 101 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,080 I mean, it's pretty crazy. He's he's definitely throwing 102 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,560 beef. And here's one of the latest 103 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,880 things he said. OK, so here it goes. 104 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,800 I have been somewhat vague and have attempted make these latest 105 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:48,200 predictions seem like they could be explained by some system or 106 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,120 knowledge of markets. This is not true. 107 00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:54,000 The truth is that I have a very specific prediction based on 108 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:58,200 memories of something that happened 30 years ago combined 109 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:01,160 with thoughts which seem ever present in my mind. 110 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:05,160 If Bitcoin were to close at 84 K on March 14th, it will run the 111 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,400 table. I'm not certain what that means. 112 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,520 I have a couple thoughts, but there's no point unless somehow 113 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,720 it actually closes at 84 K. The truth is that I am becoming 114 00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,800 convinced that it may well do just that and that the 115 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,960 impossible odds of such a thing occurring that I will have some 116 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,760 explaining to do. If this occurs, I will likely 117 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,840 take the rest of the month off and reach out to family members 118 00:06:26,840 --> 00:06:28,880 to let them know what I'm planning to reveal. 119 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,880 Believe me, I hope I am wrong about this because some people 120 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:36,480 are definitely going to view me as mentally ill if they are non 121 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,480 believers or Oh my God, I don't even know what to say. 122 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,520 But this is what I got to say. I'm going to end it with this. 123 00:06:41,840 --> 00:06:45,480 This the new Lisan al gaib. I don't know. 124 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:49,040 Let us know down in the comments if you guys believe Josh 125 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,680 Mandel's the new Lisan al gaib. I mean, the prediction is is 126 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:57,080 kind of crazy like I don't know what to say like it is it is 127 00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,120 pretty. It is pretty jarring that he got 128 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,640 it so accurate, but again, people can get lucky. 129 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,720 I also want to give a shout out to the live stream. 130 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,760 If you guys are enjoying the show so far, make sure to smash 131 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:12,000 that like button want to give a shout out to the rubble audience 132 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,600 and of course, the YouTube audience. 133 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,280 Opti, is rumble working? I don't think it's working my 134 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,600 friend. Let me see. 135 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:24,480 Yeah, I guess there's a glitch on Rumble right now. 136 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,520 Yeah, it's trying to send. Anyways, I do want to bring. 137 00:07:28,520 --> 00:07:31,200 I do want to bring in Muzz, man. Muzz. 138 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:32,400 What do you think about this, bro? 139 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:36,560 I mean it, it was making the rounds on X, you know, over the 140 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,360 weekend, everyone was losing their minds that this is the new 141 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:40,760 prophet. What? 142 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:41,880 What? What do you think? 143 00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:45,640 What are your thoughts? It's remarkable that it was that 144 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:50,440 close, you know, And you know, the rhyming is great. 145 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:55,480 You know it's very Q and on, but you know what was the the 146 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,560 timeline for the 444 K? Is that just sometime this year 147 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,120 or is there more detail on an exact time for that? 148 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:07,680 I think he just said top 4444. He said triple fours is the top. 149 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:11,920 So some people have been saying super cycle 2026, but I think 150 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:15,280 he's saying it's the top of this cycle 2025. 151 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,440 So I tried to find that information this morning, but as 152 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:23,400 of now we're just going to go 444K top maybe end of 2025, 153 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:28,560 beginning of 2026. So take some profits around 154 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:33,200 444,000. Yeah, apparently, apparently 155 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,840 that's the that's, that's what needs to happen. 156 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,799 But I mean, it is, it is, it is pretty crazy. 157 00:08:38,799 --> 00:08:42,120 People can get lucky. But I mean, to get lucky to that 158 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:48,480 extent, you know, obviously is, is very, very interesting to say 159 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,440 the least. Mateo, I don't know if you were 160 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:53,920 on X this weekend, but this is this is the current thing that 161 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:55,280 Bitcoiners have been talking about. 162 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,040 Do you have any thoughts? Any commentary? 163 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,960 I am an XI am on X more than Elon Musk. 164 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:04,800 So the answer is yes. But I mean, I had never heard of 165 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,120 this guy before. And then everybody is talking 166 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:09,720 about this guy. I'm like, OK, here we go. 167 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,600 You know, I guess you can get lucky. 168 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:13,760 So I start looking into this guy's tweets, right? 169 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:17,640 And, you know, he has a style of very interesting style of 170 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:21,880 tweeting. And what was remarkable for me 171 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:27,600 is that he was insisting that is not about 84 K on that day, 172 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:30,240 which is already, you know, hard to predict. 173 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:35,520 He was like, no, no, no, no, no. For the prophecy to be true, the 174 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:41,400 closing should be exactly 84 K And it was so like, now, you 175 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,200 know, you have to pay attention to the close. 176 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:47,120 And I mean, I don't believe in this stuff personally, but it 177 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:50,040 was exactly $84,000 on the close. 178 00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:54,440 And it makes me think, right, what is this guy's all about? 179 00:09:55,560 --> 00:09:59,160 I don't know if you guys saw the news about the latest news about 180 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:03,480 Josh Mandel. It was that he was arrested once 181 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:07,280 for drugs dealing, which explains a lot. 182 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:12,000 But I mean, I'll take 444 K anytime. 183 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:16,520 So if he's right, I mean, it's better for all of us, right? 184 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,520 Yeah, absolutely. I mean, so I want to, I want to 185 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,560 double back on that idea because I think a lot of people were 186 00:10:23,560 --> 00:10:26,880 expecting Bitcoin to be a lot higher by now. 187 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:29,520 I think a lot of people were like, Oh my God, you know, 188 00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:34,360 Bitcoin should be at 120 a 130K it's at it's at 80 KA. 189 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,440 Lot of people had expectations based on the previous cycles. 190 00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,640 If you compare the previous cycles performance compared to 191 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:44,360 this cycle, it's definitely a little bit underwhelming. 192 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,320 I think a lot of people were expecting that, obviously 193 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,920 because of diminishing returns. So I'm going to pass it on to 194 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,080 you. Ma is like, has Bitcoin become 195 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,480 boring? Is it just becoming like it's 196 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,440 like, is Bitcoin just becoming like watching the SNP? 197 00:10:57,320 --> 00:11:01,720 No, not at all. And you know what else happened 198 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:05,040 this cycle? You had the you had the all time 199 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,560 high before the halving. That was pretty unique. 200 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:12,160 You know, for the first time ever, we have a a pro Bitcoin 201 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:14,720 president in office. We were chatting a little bit a 202 00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:16,360 while ago. You know, anyone who says it's 203 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,040 boring right now, you know, Ross is free. 204 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,080 We have a, a, a Bitcoin president in office. 205 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:27,040 We have a a crypto czar, a very friendly administration people 206 00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:29,560 in the cabinet, you know, admittedly with, you know, 207 00:11:29,560 --> 00:11:33,320 hundreds of millions of dollars worth of Bitcoin. 208 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:38,480 I mean it's it's bright orange future, right, it's blue skies 209 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:40,680 ahead. I mean this is the most exciting 210 00:11:40,680 --> 00:11:44,520 time, the last few years being a Bitcoin start up, especially 211 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,880 here in the USI mean it was nearly impossible to operate. 212 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,640 I mean, they did everything in their power with Operation Choke 213 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,160 .2 Point O where you couldn't even in some cases have like an 214 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:58,000 operating account when you're running a perfectly legitimate 215 00:11:58,560 --> 00:12:02,600 United States domiciled Bitcoin startup. 216 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:09,000 So now it's another another tune and a lot of our companies are 217 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,920 making headway with banks and partnerships and I think we're 218 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:15,040 just going to see a flood of amazing products come out there. 219 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:19,120 We also just had fold IPO, which is super exciting as the first, 220 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:24,480 you know, Bitcoin only, I guess startup that's traded that's not 221 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:29,680 a minor and ASIC manufacturer. So I mean, there's never a dull 222 00:12:29,680 --> 00:12:32,920 moment in Bitcoin truly. So certainly not now. 223 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,840 Absolutely 100%. I do want to give a shout out to 224 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:38,840 the stream. Almost 500 people watching live 225 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,720 on YouTube smash that like button. 226 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,240 If you guys are enjoying the show so far, I want to pass it 227 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,080 on to Mateo. Mateo, you've been in the 228 00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:48,440 industry for a quite a long time now you have a successful 229 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,520 Bitcoin start up. What are your thoughts man? 230 00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:54,360 Has Bitcoin become boring? Has has are Bitcoin's best days 231 00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,920 behind them. I don't think Bitcoin will ever 232 00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,640 be boring. Honestly, I don't think there's 233 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,080 going to be a time where Bitcoin will be boring and definitely 234 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:05,960 not now. I think maybe back in, so I got 235 00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:09,440 in like 20/17/2018. It was more of a Wild West. 236 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,200 Like things were like crazier than now. 237 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:16,200 Now again, as must say, we have a president, they're literally 238 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,000 having meet ups at the White House, right? 239 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,720 And so that's a different, we're definitely in a different 240 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,440 environment now than even like two years ago. 241 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:30,160 I think this is like when you look at the the conditions on 242 00:13:30,160 --> 00:13:33,600 the ground, I don't think you could ask for anything better 243 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:35,160 than now. Literally like you know, you 244 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,480 have the ETF, you have Michael Silver buying like, you know, 245 00:13:38,480 --> 00:13:42,920 like it's 1999, You have, you know, the president, you have 246 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:47,160 the Bitcoin strategic reserve. I think maybe now we're like 247 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:50,960 people are a little bit disappointed with the price 248 00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:55,880 because because you know, we had higher expectations, right? 249 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:59,080 You had the you have the future and then the future is a little 250 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:01,960 bit less than what you thought and then you get disappointed. 251 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:06,760 But I think if you go back, so if you go back one year ago and 252 00:14:06,760 --> 00:14:08,880 I would tell you, hey man, in one year we're going to have a 253 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:13,800 pro become president, a peak on strategic reserve ETF. 254 00:14:13,800 --> 00:14:15,680 Michael Saylor buying like crazy. 255 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,160 You say, no, wait, it's impossible. 256 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:19,840 It's like a dream. You're crazy, right? 257 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:24,320 And but here we are. So yeah, I don't think it's 258 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:25,800 boring. I think just, you know, it's a 259 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:29,760 moment where, you know, we're reassessing the expectations 260 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:32,640 maybe. But I think fireworks are 261 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:35,640 probably around the corners. Yeah, absolutely. 262 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,240 Let's talk about that too, by the way. 263 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,280 And again, shout out to the live stream. 264 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,960 Also almost 1000 live viewers across all platforms. 265 00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:44,760 If you guys are enjoying the show, smash that like button. 266 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,160 Well we broke 100 likes on YouTube already Help us break 267 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,600 200 likes within the 1st 30 minutes of the show. 268 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:52,760 Almost 500 of you guys watching live. 269 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,200 Anyways, I'm going to pass it on to muz. 270 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,520 We got this a huge announcement from the White House. 271 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,400 The White House is posting from their ex account. the United 272 00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,160 States is going to be the Bitcoin capital of the world. 273 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:07,640 You know, you had a historic moment where Trump at the White 274 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,000 House is basically saying like, you know, they say don't sell 275 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,640 your bitcoins. And what did the price do? 276 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,760 The price dumped on that news, right? 277 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:16,480 You'd be thinking, and you're like, Oh my God, the most 278 00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:19,360 powerful country, the wealthiest and most powerful country on the 279 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,880 face of the planet just told the entire world they're bullish on 280 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,280 Bitcoin. They plan to buy Bitcoin. 281 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:28,960 There was news that leaked out of the White House on Friday 282 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:31,680 that essentially the White House is signaling that they have 283 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:34,280 every intention to acquire more Bitcoin. 284 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:35,880 They have to say in a budget neutral way. 285 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,280 But I mean, you would think, you know, that would send the price 286 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,240 to the moon. Why has the price dumped? 287 00:15:41,840 --> 00:15:44,320 Did the market the market already priced this in? 288 00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,960 What's your take, Moz? Well, it's frustrating, right? 289 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:50,560 There's so much positive news and when you don't see it 290 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,880 immediately reflected in the price, you know, all of a sudden 291 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:58,400 in manipulation, you know, as if you know they really care about 292 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,600 you know, the three grand in in your E*Trade account that 293 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:06,160 they're manipulating on you. But buy the rumor, sell the 294 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:10,200 news. You know, that old maybe, maybe 295 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,320 that's a part of it. Maybe there are some games being 296 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,120 played, you know, with the options. 297 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,920 Is it Wall Street's little tool now? 298 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:22,280 There's probably a lot of people who really don't mind lower 299 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:26,560 Bitcoin prices when they're in a huge, you know, accumulation 300 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,440 phase. So maybe it's just the last 301 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:31,720 shake out. You know, maybe it's one more 302 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,240 sort of flush. Maybe that's what this move was 303 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:38,360 down to 77 or 78. Maybe it's one more flush and 304 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:43,840 then we start seeing the price really melt everyone's faces 305 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:45,560 off. I mean, that's really what I'm 306 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,240 expecting. But it's also you got to look at 307 00:16:48,240 --> 00:16:50,680 like the global breadth of the indexes. 308 00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:54,640 You know, I think the NASDAQ shed, I don't know, 3 1/2 to 5% 309 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,800 in a day. I mean, that's a massive move. 310 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:01,800 I mean, they're just seeing trillions, you know, erased from 311 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:05,839 equities and other markets. So, you know, Bitcoin still a 312 00:17:05,839 --> 00:17:09,000 risk on asset, even though for us the risk is Fiat, right? 313 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,000 The risk is not having any Bitcoin. 314 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:15,079 But for a lot of people that are out there, it's another story. 315 00:17:15,079 --> 00:17:19,480 And you have a lot of people who got into Bitcoin through ETFs 316 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:23,200 and, you know, they're not exactly a seasoned toddler. 317 00:17:24,319 --> 00:17:26,960 So maybe there's a little bit of that. 318 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:34,000 But you know, it's just another good time to really stack and 319 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:37,320 accumulate and build your position, get to that number 320 00:17:37,320 --> 00:17:39,000 that you've always had as a bitcoiner. 321 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:44,040 Everyone wants a number and now is the time to get there before 322 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:48,520 we get to 444,000. Yeah, man, I think it'll be out 323 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,640 of grass, out of grass for most, most people just to acquire 1 324 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:52,800 full coin. I feel like it's out of the 325 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:56,320 grass for most people right now, $80,000 is, is a tremendous 326 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:58,520 amount of money. Anyways, I'm going to pass it on 327 00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:00,440 to Mateo. Mateo, what's your take on this? 328 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,520 Are you overwhelmed? Are you underwhelmed with this 329 00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,560 current bull market, especially with the white, the, the news 330 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:07,480 coming out of the White House? I mean, the talk of the 331 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:11,000 strategic Bitcoin reserve, you as a Bitcoin entrepreneur, the 332 00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:13,480 end of Operation Choke point 2.0. 333 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,720 I mean, I thought we all, we all thought we were going to go to 334 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,040 jail last year. We were all going to get sent to 335 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:21,040 the gulag. But you know it, it seems like 336 00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:23,240 the political landscape definitely cleared up. 337 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:27,760 What's your take, Mateo? I can tell you for a fact that 338 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:32,120 personal and so in our case, Orange fly, we have so we just 339 00:18:32,120 --> 00:18:37,520 launched a wallet, right? And I people have told me, oh, 340 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,440 this app should have a wallet. This app since we launched, 341 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:45,040 which is back in 2022. And I was almost I almost built 342 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,520 it at some point. And then I was about to launch 343 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:51,480 it last summertime. And that's when the like the FBI 344 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:55,800 notice came out, you know, surf custody, you know, it's illegal, 345 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:57,880 blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And I'm like, OK, we're not 346 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,200 launching the wallet because I don't want to hire more lawyers 347 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:04,240 and developers. And the moment that Trump won 348 00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:06,720 the election, I told my developers, OK, the first thing 349 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,400 we do now, as soon as he gets in office, we're launching the 350 00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,880 wallet. So without a doubt, I've been 351 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:17,280 the administration being even if it's not super pro Bitcoin, 352 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,840 which I think it is, but if they just leave us alone, you know, 353 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,600 really all Bitcoiners want is to be left alone. 354 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:28,880 And you know, and so that we can build the infrastructure, we can 355 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,160 build the, you know, all the service that are going to take 356 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,520 us to Bitcoin being more adopted. 357 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:39,240 And so yeah, I mean, having a pro Bitcoin president, pro crypt 358 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:42,040 or whatever you want to call it, it's it's it's especially if 359 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:45,280 you're AUS company with US investors, you know, you live in 360 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:47,800 the US, it's definitely a game changer. 361 00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:51,120 And you know, we're going to build so many stuff that 362 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:55,240 honestly, if Kamal had won, we, we wouldn't have built. 363 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:59,000 So when people say, you know, it's, it's always funny to say, 364 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,400 well, elections don't matter. Bitcoin doesn't care. 365 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,800 I mean, maybe Bitcoin doesn't care, but the people that use 366 00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:09,040 Bitcoin that might be arrested, you know, they probably care 367 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,920 about not getting arrested. And you know the beauty to build 368 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,680 all this stuff, you know, like it's better. 369 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,680 You know, it's like, do you want to build an Internet company in 370 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,200 the US or in like North Korea or Iran, right? 371 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,160 Like obviously you want to do in the US because it's more pro 372 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:29,240 Internet, pro online companies. And I think the same is going to 373 00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:32,720 be like in 20 years from now or 10 years from now, we're going 374 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:36,320 to look back and say, Hey, you built AUS company, a Bitcoin 375 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,360 U.S. company, which was better than building 1, let's say in 376 00:20:39,360 --> 00:20:41,920 France or Europe, you know, where all these crazy rules. 377 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:46,760 And maybe now we don't see yet because it's just playing out. 378 00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:49,040 But I think in 5-10 years we're going to look back and say, Oh 379 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:51,920 yeah, that was a game changer for the for the Bitcoin 380 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:55,120 industry. So yeah, I'm very the price is 381 00:20:55,120 --> 00:20:57,200 the price, you know, the price is the price. 382 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,800 You know, if you've been in Bitcoin for years like we all 383 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,960 have, you're used to like the price not doing what you want it 384 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,200 to do. Like back in 2021, right? 385 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:12,040 We also 100 KA 100 K never happened. 386 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:14,760 We used to say, wow, you're never gonna go below the 387 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:16,640 previous old time high. I don't know if you guys 388 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:21,800 remembered that, which was like 20,000 and sure enough, 16 K. 389 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:26,520 And so I will say like don't worry too much about the price. 390 00:21:26,520 --> 00:21:30,880 Bitcoin is gonna go off forever and you know, just hold for the 391 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:33,520 long run. You know, don't don't be swayed 392 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:36,760 by the like the two minutes candle of the one day candle. 393 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:40,920 Absolutely noise. 100% focus on the signal. 394 00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:42,960 Anyways, I do want to give a shout out to the live stream. 395 00:21:42,960 --> 00:21:46,000 Almost 1000 people between YouTube Rumble and X. 396 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,360 If you guys are enjoying the show so far, make sure to smash 397 00:21:48,360 --> 00:21:52,040 that like button. 552 of you guys watching live on YouTube 398 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,600 alone, we're already almost at 150 likes. 399 00:21:54,600 --> 00:21:58,520 Help us break 200 likes within the 1st 30 minutes of the show. 400 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,000 Anyways, I'm going to pass it on to Opti. 401 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:03,040 Opti, you've been building this out from building this out with 402 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,080 me over the last couple of years my friend. 403 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:09,640 How is the price right now under your expectations, above your 404 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:11,920 expectations? I mean, is Bitcoin becoming 405 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:13,680 boring? Are we going to have to rebrand 406 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,840 to simply Fiat for things to get more exciting? 407 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,920 Opti, what's your take? Well, I was telling you this 408 00:22:19,920 --> 00:22:22,680 morning and I've been saying it for a couple of I'm, I'm on the 409 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:25,400 fence here. I'm, I am, I think what we're 410 00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:28,720 seeing right now might be kind of like the the last bear trap, 411 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:31,600 the last shake out before it does run kind of still following 412 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:36,560 the old cycles of, you know, 2013 20/17/2021. 413 00:22:36,840 --> 00:22:40,120 There's always kind of one last bear trap before it starts 414 00:22:40,120 --> 00:22:42,240 pumping. And it does seem to be following 415 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,200 exactly that, like Wall Street psychology chart that, you know, 416 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:46,760 everyone flips around on Twitter. 417 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:49,160 That does seem to be playing out. 418 00:22:49,160 --> 00:22:52,320 Obviously 2020's hindsight. So we'll know towards the end of 419 00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:56,160 the year if that's playing out. Though my gut feeling, and since 420 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:59,720 we are kind of in a new paradigm is, is what I was telling you 421 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:03,480 earlier, maybe the new structure is, you know, like slight pump, 422 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,680 then go sideways, consolidate, and then it does the stepwise 423 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,880 function where it just pumps a little bit and it doesn't do 424 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,040 these crazy run up like we've seen in the past. 425 00:23:11,240 --> 00:23:12,800 Obviously, that's still a theory. 426 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:16,880 We won't know until hindsight. But going to this Josh Mandel 427 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:20,640 tweet here and all the craze around Twitter, it is absolutely 428 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,560 incredible that he picked the exact day and we really don't 429 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,960 know how he got these rules. He's like it's some vague. 430 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:30,280 He's literally like vibe trading and this isn't TA charting here. 431 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:33,160 He's just like, this is the vibes here, some vague memory of 432 00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,080 what the price should be doing and it hit perfectly and 433 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:39,760 everyone freaks out on Twitter. Obviously, we love to see some 434 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:43,080 predictions play out. It's just like it's human. 435 00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:44,400 I think it's human nature at this point. 436 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,720 We just love to see someone call something five months out and 437 00:23:47,720 --> 00:23:52,120 get it literally perfect. And now the next prediction is 438 00:23:52,120 --> 00:23:55,360 Hey, we're going to see 444 K and he's like, how did you get 439 00:23:55,360 --> 00:23:57,400 that number? He's like, I'm just, it's a vibe 440 00:23:57,480 --> 00:23:59,920 thing, bro. It's like, trust me, based off 441 00:23:59,920 --> 00:24:02,280 my vibes, bro. And we're like, yes, send it 442 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,480 though. I do like, and I was trolling 443 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,960 over the weekend as well. If he hit that 84K, which we 444 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:11,680 did, or really it was like you if you heard it, it wasn't 84 445 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,280 exactly. It's if it's between 80 and 84 K 446 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:17,000 close, then it's going to go much higher. 447 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,360 And if it went over 84 K, then it was going to dump. 448 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:22,400 Well, we literally he nailed it in in regards to those 449 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:25,320 parameters. So the next move is we'll see by 450 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,320 the end of the month. Are we going to get 100K by the 451 00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:29,560 end of March? Would love to see that. 452 00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:34,040 That would continue to add some more fire to this idea of him 453 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,800 being the least on Algaeim. He is my quaint here. 454 00:24:36,800 --> 00:24:38,320 And how does your quaint get these numbers? 455 00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:41,760 He's like, it's just vibes bro. Like I, I have some idea of how 456 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,760 this is going to work and, and I'm just going to keep nailing 457 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,720 it. So 100K by end of this month and 458 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:53,320 then we'll see 444 K by 2025. Or I heard some people saying 459 00:24:53,600 --> 00:24:57,280 that it was going to be 444 K by 2026. 460 00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:01,480 Now, if that does play out, then we can pretty much very clearly 461 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:05,200 say that the cycle theory is going to break because a lot of 462 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:07,480 us are thinking 2026 is going to be a bear market. 463 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:12,320 If we get this perpetual pump through 2025 into 2026, then 464 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,400 maybe this this is, you know, this time is different. 465 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,200 And I think the biggest part about his tweet is this whole 466 00:25:18,200 --> 00:25:20,560 idea of the fourth turning here. He's like, this time is 467 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,680 different. This is a once in a lifetime 468 00:25:22,680 --> 00:25:24,880 opportunity. You're never going to get this 469 00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,680 back. So obviously cherish this moment 470 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:29,920 moment because things are fundamentally changing. 471 00:25:30,120 --> 00:25:32,720 And I think that's the message that we have to kind of continue 472 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,360 to spread to people. It's like this is a 473 00:25:35,360 --> 00:25:38,360 fundamentally paradigm shifting moment in history. 474 00:25:38,360 --> 00:25:41,280 We obviously know now that the Trump administration and nation 475 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:42,720 states are fumbling into Bitcoin. 476 00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:45,040 We know all the biggest institutions are starting to 477 00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,960 FOMO into Bitcoin so I wouldn't be surprised if cycle theory 478 00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,360 does break. We already kind of seen that 479 00:25:51,360 --> 00:25:55,160 happen last year. Like Muzz was saying the the 480 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:58,120 meme of we will never see an all time high before the halving. 481 00:25:58,360 --> 00:26:01,240 We broke that and now everyone is just kind of trying to wrap 482 00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,240 their head around and and get their own mental model of what 483 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,360 is this price doing because we have literally no clue. 484 00:26:06,360 --> 00:26:10,080 Like we are in uncharted territory right now and hey, I'd 485 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:14,120 love A444K Bitcoin by this year or going into next year. 486 00:26:14,120 --> 00:26:16,800 That sounds great to me. So hey, a little hope you a 487 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:18,840 Monday. But we we love to see some 488 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,080 predictions play out, so here we are. 489 00:26:21,360 --> 00:26:25,120 I'm going to go around the horn by the way, but broke 600 live 490 00:26:25,120 --> 00:26:29,160 viewers on YouTube or on The Verge 1000 live viewers across 491 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:31,960 YouTube and X and almost 100 live viewers on Rumbles. 492 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,520 If you guys are enjoying simply Bitcoin live, make sure to smash 493 00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,240 that like button.

Let's check out some of those 640 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:05,760 clips. Kevin, let me ask you this. 641 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,280 You say start small, but is it safe? 642 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:11,800 A lot of people aren't sure. When I send my money, if I if I 643 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:15,320 use my money and I put it in crypto, where does it go and is 644 00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:18,200 it safe? That's a great question. 645 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:23,160 And if you try and do this on your own in a decentralized 646 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:26,320 wallet, as they're called, someone will hack you most 647 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:27,680 likely because you don't know what you're doing. 648 00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:31,640 To make it safe, go to an accredited exchange like 649 00:35:31,640 --> 00:35:36,320 Coinbase, something that is is, you know, regulated, but also 650 00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:39,800 that you can see every day on your phone that has million. 651 00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:46,200 I mean, before I move, I'm before I keep it going. 652 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:50,040 I mean, Mr. Wonderful at Public Key, but you know, terrible, 653 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:52,840 terrible take for Mr. Wonderful. I know Muzz is a big fan. 654 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,560 Muzz, do you, do you have any opinions, thoughts, feelings? 655 00:35:56,800 --> 00:36:02,600 I think you're muted, brother. Perhaps Mr. Wonderful needs to 656 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:08,000 take a trip down the old What's happened with exchanges in the 657 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:11,320 past 12 years? Perhaps old Mr. Wonderful needs 658 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:18,400 to revisit, you know, Mount Gox, Kripsy, my God, you know, he was 659 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:21,000 probably out there. I mean, he was an FTX spokesman, 660 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,760 I think. I think he actually showed FTX 661 00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,280 and got paid for it. So, you know, anyone who 662 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:32,240 listened to Mr. Wonderful then is not feeling so wonderful now. 663 00:36:33,040 --> 00:36:34,520 I mean, you get what he's saying, right? 664 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:38,360 I mean, it's, it's still that's the challenge with with Bitcoin 665 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,880 is onboarding. You know, I remember I just got 666 00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:44,400 my mom set up with a hardware wallet and she texts me 667 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:48,080 sometimes and says I have a question about the words, right? 668 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:51,280 It's funny listening to your parents go ahead and think about 669 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,560 mnemonic seed phrases. I have a question about my 670 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,920 words. And you know, it's still tough, 671 00:36:57,920 --> 00:36:59,800 right? Because there is no 1800 672 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:02,600 Bitcoin. You know, that's the trade off. 673 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:05,720 You know, you make a mistake and you're going to lose Bitcoin 674 00:37:05,720 --> 00:37:08,800 forever. So, you know, I mean, I kind of 675 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:12,200 get what he's saying here and it is a process, right? 676 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:16,200 Maybe you start with a little bit of Bitcoin and then once it 677 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,600 turns into kind of a lot of Bitcoin, then you really got to 678 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:22,920 think about, you know, taking the personal responsibility and 679 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,960 and taking that next step. But you know, exchanges aren't 680 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,280 safe in any way. I mean, we all know that. 681 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:31,640 I mean, you guys are out there every day screaming get your 682 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:35,840 Bitcoin off exchanges and and I don't know, I mean he got rugged 683 00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:38,080 with FTX. Maybe he needs one or two more 684 00:37:38,080 --> 00:37:42,360 ruggings in him before you know, he's fucking hardcore out there 685 00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,240 with the hoodie just being like self custody. 686 00:37:45,240 --> 00:37:47,880 KYC is the real enemy. Fuck these people. 687 00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:51,640 But you know, he's not quite there in his Bitcoin journey. 688 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:54,960 Absolutely, I mean bro, self custody. 689 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:56,360 Self custody is not your Bitcoin. 690 00:37:56,360 --> 00:38:00,880 I got the hoodie on everything. Mateo, do you have some thoughts 691 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:02,960 on this? Yeah, hold on, Hold on a second. 692 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:06,240 Yeah. Mateo is a shadowy super coder. 693 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:08,640 There we go. Boom. 694 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,640 So, yeah, I mean, Surf Castle is the way to go. 695 00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:17,120 I know it's a little tricky, but you got to learn. 696 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:21,320 Because if you if you keep it on exchange, it's not your money. 697 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:24,960 So eventually they might get hacked, they might get seized by 698 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:27,560 the government. You know what's funny? 699 00:38:27,560 --> 00:38:34,400 I always wanted to talk to Sailor about his idea that the 700 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:38,000 US government should own like 20% of the coins, like a lot of 701 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,560 coins. And, and he doesn't own, you 702 00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:43,960 know, he doesn't hold his own coins, his own coins, his 703 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:47,640 Microsoft coins are on Coinbase, which is really the US 704 00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:49,560 government and so on and so forth. 705 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:55,600 And I always said a fear that people are so worried about 706 00:38:55,600 --> 00:39:00,000 minors centralization, which to me is like the least of the of 707 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:03,280 the issue. But in reality the real issue 708 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:07,560 the way I see Bitcoin is the custodian central custodian 709 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:13,240 centralization like so imagine if so I did the math one time I 710 00:39:13,240 --> 00:39:18,240 think in 2023 in fees they were paid 23,000 bitcoins, right? 711 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:23,920 Not from the rewards like fees. Now what happens is if I have 712 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:28,720 1,000,000 bitcoins, I can pretty much spam the chain for one 713 00:39:28,720 --> 00:39:29,400 year. Why? 714 00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:34,040 Cuz nobody's gonna be able to upbeat me and I can clog the 715 00:39:34,040 --> 00:39:37,600 chain and I can basically, you know, like shut down the Bitcoin 716 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:43,160 on chain network. And maybe I'm just being 717 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,680 paranoid, but I always thought that's the number one threat to 718 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,120 Bitcoin, the custodians and not the miners. 719 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,400 And so, yeah, if you the more comments you keep on the 720 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:54,880 custodians, the more this thread, this problem becomes 721 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,240 bigger. But at the end of the day, 722 00:39:57,280 --> 00:39:59,000 everybody start with the custodians. 723 00:39:59,040 --> 00:40:02,000 So if you're new to Bitcoin, you start with the custodians. 724 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:06,000 Then you look, you watch some YouTube like busy session is 725 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:07,720 great to learn about self custody. 726 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:13,360 And then eventually you hold your own keys, your own coins. 727 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,760 So whatever happens, it doesn't bother you. 728 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:18,280 It doesn't matter to you. I think that's kind of the path 729 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:21,480 of most big corners. And so if you're new, just keep 730 00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:23,160 learning. If you've been around for a 731 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:25,160 while, just. You get a hardware wallet, 732 00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:29,040 transfer some coins, do some testing, and then you'll flip 733 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:30,120 coin. It's not that difficult. 734 00:40:30,240 --> 00:40:32,560 It's not that difficult, You just have to do it and get 735 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,120 confident. Absolutely, 100%, yeah. 736 00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:36,120 I mean, I think that's the name of the game, right? 737 00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:41,440 You get comfortable with self custody and it just, you can 738 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:44,760 never imagine yourself in a, in a situation where you, you're 739 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:46,680 not taking custody of your keys, right? 740 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,280 100%. But I mean, it is difficult, 741 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:51,160 right? For older generations like my 742 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:54,040 parents or grandparents, right? The idea of self custody is just 743 00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:58,160 like, it's so, it's so completely just, it's out of 744 00:40:58,160 --> 00:40:59,520 their comfort zone to say the least. 745 00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:00,920 Anyways, Opti, what's your take on? 746 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:03,880 I know that you're a big fan of Mr. Wonderful. 747 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,760 I know that you and Muz will love watching Shark Tank 748 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:11,440 together and you'll you guys will have like Shark Tank recap 749 00:41:11,720 --> 00:41:13,520 calls and stuff. So Opti. 750 00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:16,880 Yeah, I mean, obviously this is really bad advice. 751 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:22,000 Like it's simple, but like Muzz was saying, I think this is kind 752 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:25,280 of a sign of the time, especially someone that is the 753 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:28,560 age of Mr. Wonderful. They're so used to just having a 754 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:32,760 middleman custody their assets. And so he's, you know, I think 755 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,400 on the one hand, if we're being nice, he's, you know, and, and 756 00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:38,800 less cynical, this is maybe him trying to have some form of like 757 00:41:38,800 --> 00:41:41,160 fiduciary responsibility of being like, hey, go to the 758 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:43,960 accredited people and that's the safest way to get your Bitcoin. 759 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:46,800 But if you talk to a normal person or not a normal person, 760 00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,840 but like an average person that isn't a bitcoiner, that's 761 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:52,400 probably going to be their go to move is just be like, Hey, where 762 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:55,160 can I just buy some Bitcoin? And it's going to be safe 763 00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:58,040 because not many people are used to self custodying their assets. 764 00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:00,680 And This is why we always say that self custody is the 765 00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:02,720 revolution. Like this is the game changer 766 00:42:02,720 --> 00:42:06,560 about Bitcoin is that you can take hold of your own money here 767 00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:08,040 and you don't have to trust the middleman. 768 00:42:08,240 --> 00:42:10,120 Remember, go read the white paper. 769 00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:13,080 It's literally the first sentence of the first, you know, 770 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:15,080 the abstract and the first paragraph. 771 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:20,120 Like there is too much trust on the Internet and it is based on 772 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,360 all of these middle men. And this is what Bitcoin is 773 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:24,120 eliminating. It's eliminating the middleman 774 00:42:24,400 --> 00:42:27,000 and therefore you want to take custody of your Bitcoin. 775 00:42:27,000 --> 00:42:30,760 So I see where he's coming from. Obviously, when you kind of go 776 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:34,160 down the rabbit hole, I would suggest for a lot of people that 777 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:35,400 that's probably where they start. 778 00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:38,520 It's like, hey, but where can I buy Bitcoin and do it safely? 779 00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:41,320 And then once they get over that first step of buying their 780 00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,360 Bitcoin, you're like, hey bro, maybe you want to take these 781 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:45,720 coins off in exchange, considering that we've seen so 782 00:42:45,720 --> 00:42:48,960 many exchanges blow up. So I get where he's coming from. 783 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:52,120 Obviously, I think this is a bad advice to just be like, hey, buy 784 00:42:52,120 --> 00:42:53,600 it on Coinbase and leave it there. 785 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,600 You're going to be good, bro. And it's like, I don't know if 786 00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:59,840 that's true, Mr. Wonderful. So I would highly suggest people 787 00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:03,360 take their Bitcoin into custody. But I mean, I understand kind of 788 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:05,840 where he's coming from. You know, Boomer, boomer logic 789 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,680 here. It's not as hardcore Bitcoin 790 00:43:08,680 --> 00:43:11,680 logic, but it is pretty interesting that that is the 791 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,280 clip that they put out on Fox News at Pub key. 792 00:43:14,280 --> 00:43:16,480 But, you know, I guess it's just a sign of where we are right 793 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:17,600 now. People still need to learn 794 00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:19,160 what's actually going on with Bitcoin. 795 00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:23,200 You know, you know what one thing, So we give these old 796 00:43:23,200 --> 00:43:25,800 people a little bit of a of a pass, right? 797 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:27,760 Oh, they're old. You know, how are they going to 798 00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:31,880 be you at birth? You are expected to keep a 799 00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:37,240 physical Social Security card, this little piece of paper for 800 00:43:37,240 --> 00:43:41,120 your entire life. OK, So if somebody had, you 801 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:45,640 know, if, if my grandfather has this Social Security card from, 802 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:51,440 you know, 19, you know, 30, then you know, you should be able to 803 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:54,680 keep, you know, 12 words safe somewhere. 804 00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:57,200 It's, you know, so we can't be too easy on them, right? 805 00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:59,640 It is complicated. You do need someone to show you, 806 00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:03,120 but I mean, come on. Yeah, 100%. 807 00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:07,520 I mean, it's again too, you know, this is This is why you 808 00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:09,600 guys should watch Simply Bitcoin instead of legacy media. 809 00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:13,360 Tomorrow's Bitcoin News today. Anyways, any final thoughts 810 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:14,720 before I move on to the next segment? 811 00:44:14,720 --> 00:44:16,600 We're going to be talking, we're going to be talking about the 812 00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:20,360 news and specifically an article coming out of Bitcoin Magazine 813 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:23,720 for the audio listeners titled South Korea dismisses 814 00:44:23,720 --> 00:44:25,720 Establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. 815 00:44:25,720 --> 00:44:27,160 But that's not the signal out of this article. 816 00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:30,640 The signal out of this article is the reasons as to why they're 817 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:36,280 not doing is quote, failure to meet IMF standards for reserves. 818 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:39,920 I mean, we told you guys this. It was a shot across the bow 819 00:44:40,120 --> 00:44:43,600 when El Salvador was essentially, I mean, it seems 820 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:46,880 like Buchele didn't go along with it, but the IMF was born 821 00:44:46,880 --> 00:44:49,360 was warning El Salvador saying, hey, listen, we're not going to 822 00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:53,440 give you guys that loan if you don't, if you if you continue to 823 00:44:53,440 --> 00:44:56,920 acquire Bitcoin. Seems like El Salvador had they 824 00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:59,520 were at a fork in the road. They had to decide, decide which 825 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:02,200 way they were going to go. And they said, you know what, 826 00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:05,520 we're going to, we're going to continue to acquire Bitcoin. 827 00:45:05,720 --> 00:45:08,240 But it seems like other countries are, are put in this, 828 00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:11,320 in this position, especially if they have loans with the IMF 829 00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:13,120 where they don't have a choice, right? 830 00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:16,520 Especially other countries that perhaps haven't even started 831 00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:18,360 acquiring Bitcoin, aren't even looking at Bitcoin. 832 00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:22,560 I remember back in 2021, Bukele and El Salvador had so much 833 00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:25,280 momentum. It was announced El Salvador 834 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:27,360 made Bitcoin legal tender in 2021. 835 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:30,280 The conference in Miami at the time was absolutely bonkers. 836 00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:34,400 Everyone lost their minds. And then the next year, everyone 837 00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:36,920 was anticipating that another country was going to fall in the 838 00:45:36,920 --> 00:45:40,200 footsteps of of El Salvador, but no country followed in the 839 00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:42,760 footsteps of El Salvador. And I was always like, why? 840 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:44,600 That's so weird? Like that's so strange. 841 00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:47,200 Why did that happen? Now we have a pretty good idea 842 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:50,840 as to why it seems like the IMF was never a big fan. 843 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:53,280 I mean, they indicated that since the beginning, but it 844 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:55,680 seems like they could have been the ones pulling the streams, 845 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:58,120 the strings in the background. But I mean, it is quite 846 00:45:58,120 --> 00:46:01,640 interesting now that the United States is the the, the US 847 00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:03,480 government is basically saying, hey, we're going to acquire 848 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,240 Bitcoin. So the whole dynamics of this is 849 00:46:05,240 --> 00:46:08,160 really interesting and to see how it's going to unfold is 850 00:46:08,160 --> 00:46:10,720 going to be, you know, let's see what happens. 851 00:46:10,720 --> 00:46:13,160 This is it's going to be it's going to be interesting to say 852 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:14,720 the least. I've said that a couple times, 853 00:46:14,720 --> 00:46:18,040 but this is very interesting times and Muzz man is a very 854 00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,480 interesting man. So we have to say interesting 855 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:22,160 multiple times. Anyways, I do want to give a 856 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:25,200 shout out to the live stream.

We're going to be right back. 865 00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:51,520 I want to give a shout out to our sponsor Casa. 866 00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:54,680 Bitcoin security matters, but managing private keys can 867 00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:57,040 sometimes be complicated, especially multi sig. 868 00:46:57,120 --> 00:47:00,320 What if you can secure your Bitcoin without worrying about 869 00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:02,840 losing a seed phrase or giving up custody? 870 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:06,920 With Casa, you can completely control your Bitcoin with multi 871 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:09,640 key security.

Everybody we are. 908 00:49:21,440 --> 00:49:24,800 Back so I tweeted this out a couple or posted it's not 909 00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:27,440 Twitter anymore. I posted this on March 4th. 910 00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:30,360 I said 94 countries have loans with the IMF. 911 00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:33,760 All those countries were just sent a message they can't buy 912 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:38,000 Bitcoin. This is why after 2021, no other 913 00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:41,360 countries followed El Salvador. Something stopped the momentum. 914 00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:44,280 We now have a pretty good idea of who was behind that. 915 00:49:44,280 --> 00:49:48,960 And this was my response to essentially almost got got half 916 00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:52,040 a million views. But this is my response to the 917 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:56,400 news that was coming out where essentially the IMF was putting 918 00:49:56,400 --> 00:50:00,320 pressure on El Salvador to stop acquiring Bitcoin, which is 919 00:50:00,360 --> 00:50:02,240 absolutely absurd if you think about it. 920 00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:06,160 This is a sovereign country with the democratically elected 921 00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:09,800 leader that's representing the El Salvadorian people. 922 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:13,160 And there you have an an international institution 923 00:50:13,160 --> 00:50:17,200 basically trying to dictate to El Salvador what they can and 924 00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:20,360 cannot do with their money, which is absolutely ludicrous. 925 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:23,760 And then they hide behind the fact that Bitcoin is volatile. 926 00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:25,800 Bitcoin has no value. It's, it's just bullshit. 927 00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:31,240 So anyhow, and I said that, you know, a couple weeks ago and 928 00:50:31,240 --> 00:50:35,120 then Fast forward right, March 17th, this is the headline. 929 00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:38,560 South Korea dismisses establishing strategic Bitcoin 930 00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:40,360 reserve. Here's the headline. 931 00:50:40,360 --> 00:50:43,280 The Bank of Korea has dismissed the possibility of establishing 932 00:50:43,280 --> 00:50:46,240 a strategic Bitcoin reserve, citing concerns over price 933 00:50:46,240 --> 00:50:48,400 volatility and risks. I mean, we've heard those 934 00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:51,520 excuses before. This comes despite ongoing 935 00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:55,400 global discussions about using Bitcoin as part of foreign 936 00:50:55,560 --> 00:50:59,000 exchange reserves following the United States plans to create a 937 00:50:59,000 --> 00:51:02,040 reserve. In response to an inquiry from a 938 00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:05,000 member of the National Assembly's Strategy Finance 939 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:08,480 Committee, the central bank rejected adding Bitcoin to its 940 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:11,920 reserve. OK officials emphasize bitcoins 941 00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:15,200 wild price swings as a key deterrent, stating the 942 00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:19,760 transaction cost to conserve bit convert Bitcoin to cash could 943 00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:23,400 rise drastically if the market experiences instability. 944 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:30,360 As of March 17th, Bitcoin trades around 83,500, having fallen 23% 945 00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:33,080 from its peak of 108,000 in January. 946 00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:37,080 The B OK warned that this extreme volatility poses 947 00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:39,160 significant risks to its reserves. 948 00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:44,360 The the bank also indicated that Bitcoin fails to meet the IMF's 949 00:51:44,440 --> 00:51:49,080 criteria for reserve assets. The IMF calls for prudent 950 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:52,800 management of liquidity, market and credit risk for reserves, 951 00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:57,840 standards Bitcoin does not currently satisfy in the eyes of 952 00:51:57,840 --> 00:51:59,400 the be OK, I'm going to leave it there. 953 00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:04,600 Out of this entire article, this single paragraph is the signal 954 00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:07,600 must man must man. I mean bro what what what's 955 00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:11,520 happening here bro? Like this is here as day, the 956 00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:16,480 IMF is just, you know, trying to ruin bitcoins reputation in the 957 00:52:16,480 --> 00:52:20,120 eyes of the world. Do you think that the central 958 00:52:20,120 --> 00:52:22,760 Bank of Korea is just using that as an excuse? 959 00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:26,880 I mean it's all bullshit bro. Like at this point, 16 years 960 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:30,760 later, bitcoins the best performing asset of all time. 961 00:52:30,960 --> 00:52:33,560 Like who's buying this anymore? Muzz? 962 00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:41,440 You're muted bro. It's kind of disappointing what 963 00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:44,120 happened with El Salvador. I mean, I've been to El Salvador 964 00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:48,080 four times. And, you know, to see them sort 965 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:53,640 of roll back some of that and then not really have kind of the 966 00:52:53,640 --> 00:52:58,560 clear guidance on, you know, he's saying one thing And 967 00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:01,040 whether he ends up using that money or continues to buy 968 00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:04,280 Bitcoin or not. You know, those companies like 969 00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:07,920 Walmart, KFC, everything, they had to comply. 970 00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:11,200 They had to enable Bitcoin payments to do business in El 971 00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:13,760 Salvador. And they no longer really have 972 00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:17,040 to do that. So I, I think it's just a Matt, 973 00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:20,480 it's a temporary sort of game that they're playing. 974 00:53:20,480 --> 00:53:23,240 I, I don't think they can hold it back forever, especially 975 00:53:23,240 --> 00:53:27,280 with, with Trump and, you know, a lot of other nations coming on 976 00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:30,240 board. You know, I mean, they can't 977 00:53:30,240 --> 00:53:34,040 hold it back forever, but they certainly, the amount of control 978 00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:38,640 that they have over these countries is, is crazy that they 979 00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:41,720 actually have that much power. You know, I had thought that, 980 00:53:41,720 --> 00:53:44,840 you know, what they had said was, is El Salvador was going to 981 00:53:44,840 --> 00:53:49,560 be able to pay off the IMF with the Bitcoin price. 982 00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:55,120 And it was just a little, you know, disappointing to see. 100 983 00:53:55,120 --> 00:53:59,400 percent, 100%, yeah man, it was. It's crazy how much power this 984 00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:01,400 institution has. Anyways, I do want to give a 985 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:05,920 shout out to the live stream 781 of you guys watching live on X 986 00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:09,400 657 of you guys watching live on YouTube. 987 00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:11,440 And of course, shout out to the Rumble audience. 988 00:54:11,440 --> 00:54:14,440 I believe just broke a hundred 102 live viewers. 989 00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:17,440 If you guys are enjoying the show so far, help us break 300 990 00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:18,680 likes.

I'm gonna up the target 350 992 00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:24,640 likes by the end of the live stream. 993 00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:28,120 Smash that like button. Someone Thomas Martinez in the 994 00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:31,320 chat says who controls the IMF? I mean, that's a really good 995 00:54:31,320 --> 00:54:33,800 question, Matteo, what are your thoughts on this man? 996 00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:37,600 This institution, this international institution has so 997 00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:39,680 much power. They're not elected. 998 00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:42,400 Like what's going on here? Why are they dictating? 999 00:54:42,400 --> 00:54:45,880 Why are they telling all these so-called sovereign countries 1000 00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:48,360 what they can and cannot do with their money? 1001 00:54:48,360 --> 00:54:50,680 That doesn't sound like democracy to me Mateo. 1002 00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:56,120 What are your thoughts? You know, the crazy part is that 1003 00:54:56,120 --> 00:54:59,200 North Korea has more become the South Korea. 1004 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:05,280 Like maybe, you know, maybe the path forward is to be a 1005 00:55:05,320 --> 00:55:08,520 dictatorship. I don't know, I thought that's 1006 00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:12,040 the real Bitcoin strategic reserve now, Jokina said. 1007 00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:15,160 I mean, yeah, I mean, it's, it's, it's crazy like how much 1008 00:55:15,160 --> 00:55:19,280 power these, you know, these, these institutions have. 1009 00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:22,120 But I mean, it's not surprising anything for us Bitcoiners. 1010 00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:25,880 We always knew, you know, the, the system has too much power, 1011 00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:28,280 which, you know, in at the end of the day, that's why we are 1012 00:55:28,280 --> 00:55:31,720 into Bitcoin, right? Because with Bitcoin, we don't 1013 00:55:31,720 --> 00:55:34,920 have to fight that power. We can just completely like step 1014 00:55:35,040 --> 00:55:38,280 out of that system and don't have to worry about them. 1015 00:55:38,760 --> 00:55:41,760 But you know, for most people in the world, they still haven't 1016 00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:43,880 figured this out. And so they still listen to the 1017 00:55:43,880 --> 00:55:48,240 IMF and the World Bank and, you know, the, you know, NATO and UN 1018 00:55:48,240 --> 00:55:54,640 and, you know, the all this kind of unelected bureaucracy that 1019 00:55:55,440 --> 00:55:59,400 yeah, they're all empowerment. I think everybody gets become 1020 00:55:59,440 --> 00:56:03,360 the price that we serve and that includes nation states, right 1021 00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:08,440 and some people get it sooner, like the US finally got it like 1022 00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:11,520 after 15 years, 16 years, some of them got it like five years 1023 00:56:11,520 --> 00:56:14,520 ago. My home country of Italy 1024 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:19,720 probably never gonna get it. So you know it's what's 1025 00:56:19,720 --> 00:56:20,960 interesting. You know what's interesting. 1026 00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:24,920 I was thinking that a day like, so Bitcoin is a tool for 1027 00:56:24,920 --> 00:56:29,240 freedom, right? And and so you should expect 1028 00:56:29,240 --> 00:56:35,360 that the countries that to have more freedom principles, like 1029 00:56:35,360 --> 00:56:38,360 freedom, the best are going to be the first to adopt it. 1030 00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:43,080 And so the US being like one of the, I mean, the biggest country 1031 00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:46,320 in the world and the first big countries without the Bitcoin, 1032 00:56:46,320 --> 00:56:49,120 it actually makes perfect sense because it's very pro freedom. 1033 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:52,560 And if you're pro freedom, you're going to adopt freedom 1034 00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:55,560 technology faster than if you're anti freedom. 1035 00:56:55,560 --> 00:56:57,360 Now, I don't know anything about South Korea. 1036 00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:00,880 I probably know more about North Korea than South Korea, so I 1037 00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:04,360 don't know how how much they like freedom, but you know, it's 1038 00:57:04,680 --> 00:57:07,120 they're going to get 100. Percent. 1039 00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:11,040 Also, two guys. Mateo, I heard a rumor that the 1040 00:57:11,040 --> 00:57:15,080 orange palap is where Opti and Augustin Carson's met. 1041 00:57:15,080 --> 00:57:19,680 Is that true? It's it's not. 1042 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:25,440 A dating at me because so stop. Well, somebody got married, 1043 00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:27,000 someone got. Married. 1044 00:57:27,080 --> 00:57:29,120 Oh my God. Wait, can you tell us a little 1045 00:57:29,120 --> 00:57:35,880 bit about that? So I mean, yeah, somebody got 1046 00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:38,000 married and he wasn't a man with a man. 1047 00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:43,680 We have no problem with with with any type of of of of 1048 00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:45,160 flavor. But yeah. 1049 00:57:46,600 --> 00:57:50,040 Yeah, I know it was. It wasn't like a traditional 1050 00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:53,480 marriage, men and women.

I 1109 01:01:18,720 --> 01:01:22,520 responded to everyone. So it took a while, but I 1110 01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:25,600 responded to you guys.

I'll do my best, but I responded 1113 01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:34,960 to everyone. Nicole, we should make a new 1114 01:01:34,960 --> 01:01:35,960 deal. Let's do it. 1115 01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:40,880 We should make a new deal. The less up to replies, the 1116 01:01:40,880 --> 01:01:45,360 lower. Simply bitcoins going to go 1117 01:01:45,360 --> 01:01:51,840 broke up to you I'm. Replying I replied OK, I'm 1118 01:01:51,840 --> 01:01:55,200 replying I'm replying. So I I've been I've been logging 1119 01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:56,680 in. I responded to everyone. 1120 01:01:56,680 --> 01:02:00,040 It was like 100 plus messages. Again, I apologies for the 1121 01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:03,720 delay, but I'm I'm responding to the messages. 1122 01:02:04,720 --> 01:02:07,360 Absolutely. IMF, IMF. 1123 01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:10,160 El Salvador, what's your take? OK, all right, well, first of 1124 01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:12,240 all, Matteo stole my joke because I was going to say the 1125 01:02:12,240 --> 01:02:13,880 same thing. It looks like their neighbors in 1126 01:02:13,880 --> 01:02:16,040 the north are the real Bitcoin Maxis here. 1127 01:02:16,240 --> 01:02:19,280 They're they have a strategic Bitcoin reserve and they seem to 1128 01:02:19,280 --> 01:02:23,200 have good OPSEC. So, you know, South Korea is is 1129 01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:24,960 absolutely wrecked and devastated. 1130 01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:27,720 And we've been talking about this on the show for a long 1131 01:02:27,720 --> 01:02:31,840 time, that it is very interesting why no one followed 1132 01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:35,480 the El Salvador playbook. But obviously, in hindsight, we 1133 01:02:35,480 --> 01:02:38,240 know why the IMF has been pressuring everyone and they 1134 01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:41,960 don't like Bitcoin. And it's not, it's not or it's 1135 01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:43,800 super obvious why they don't like Bitcoin. 1136 01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:45,120 We talk about it every single day. 1137 01:02:45,120 --> 01:02:47,560 So, you know, it is disappointing to see South Korea 1138 01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:50,520 do this, but you know, they're going to have fun staying poor. 1139 01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:53,280 And maybe maybe their neighbors to the north are going to be the 1140 01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:56,680 real rich ones because they have a strategic Bitcoin reserve. 1141 01:02:56,680 --> 01:03:01,480 Many people don't know, but Kim is definitely a Bitcoin maxi if 1142 01:03:01,560 --> 01:03:04,400 you understand. He he actually runs a very 1143 01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:10,480 successful meet up. Oh my, I want to go to that one. 1144 01:03:10,800 --> 01:03:15,360 Anyways, the breaking news of today's news segment is that 1145 01:03:15,360 --> 01:03:18,920 Opti will reply to you on Orange Palab. 1146 01:03:18,920 --> 01:03:22,560 That is the breaking news.

It's, it's, it's basically, you 1217 01:07:46,000 --> 01:07:48,400 know, the, the reason. So I can tell you the short 1218 01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:53,160 story why I built this up. I went to Miami in 2021 and I 1219 01:07:53,160 --> 01:07:55,080 didn't know anybody. Literally I didn't know anybody. 1220 01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:58,240 It was my first conference. And before that I was like a 1221 01:07:58,240 --> 01:08:00,600 Bitcoin, you know, rabbit hole, like listening to all the 1222 01:08:00,600 --> 01:08:02,760 podcasts, all the books. And then I was like, yeah, let's 1223 01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:05,560 go find some Bitcoiners. So I went to Miami, which is 1224 01:08:05,560 --> 01:08:10,800 where, you know, Buchelli announced or the, the Bitcoin in 1225 01:08:10,800 --> 01:08:12,800 El Salvador. Anyway, so I met Vikons for the 1226 01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:15,760 first time and it was a great experience. 1227 01:08:16,479 --> 01:08:19,479 Then I came back to LA, which is where I live, and I said let's 1228 01:08:19,479 --> 01:08:22,399 go to a meet up, let's find big corners where I live, right? 1229 01:08:23,439 --> 01:08:27,960 And I went to this meet up. It was like October 2021 and I 1230 01:08:27,960 --> 01:08:32,240 kid you not, like half of the people were like Ethereum NFT. 1231 01:08:32,880 --> 01:08:37,600 So on my way back home, as I was young, I was like, how do I find 1232 01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:40,760 big corners in my, you know, in my local area? 1233 01:08:40,760 --> 01:08:42,560 Like there's kind of, I literally did the math in my 1234 01:08:42,560 --> 01:08:45,920 head, you know, like if there's 0.1% of big corners in the 1235 01:08:45,920 --> 01:08:50,960 United States, I should be able to find 10 or 20 or at least 1236 01:08:50,960 --> 01:08:53,600 three and there. But there wasn't a way, right? 1237 01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:56,000 Cuz on Twitter you can't, you know, you don't see where you 1238 01:08:56,000 --> 01:08:58,880 are. And so eventually I realized, 1239 01:08:58,880 --> 01:09:01,520 OK, I should build a solution to this. 1240 01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:05,880 Hopefully it's not just me with this problem of like, you know, 1241 01:09:05,880 --> 01:09:09,000 like at the Bitcoin is kind of like a hero journey, like your 1242 01:09:09,000 --> 01:09:12,439 normal life, everything is like, you know, normal. 1243 01:09:12,439 --> 01:09:16,000 And then you find out about Bitcoin and then you kind of 1244 01:09:16,000 --> 01:09:19,399 like go down to the like, to the like a dark side where 1245 01:09:19,399 --> 01:09:21,640 everything is like, it's like, you know, everything is like a 1246 01:09:21,640 --> 01:09:24,240 conspiracy theory and like everything is wrong with the 1247 01:09:24,240 --> 01:09:25,800 world. You know, the, you learn about 1248 01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:28,399 money printing and the Fed and all that kind of stuff. 1249 01:09:28,960 --> 01:09:31,840 And then your friends don't want to talk to you about Bitcoin 1250 01:09:31,840 --> 01:09:35,200 because they're still in normal. And in fact, then it's not that 1251 01:09:35,200 --> 01:09:38,120 they don't want to talk to you. They think you're crazy or 1252 01:09:38,120 --> 01:09:40,240 you're in a cold or, you know, you're kind of like losing your 1253 01:09:40,240 --> 01:09:43,200 mind. And so if you know, it's so then 1254 01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:46,359 then you become a little lonely. You know, it's it's which I 1255 01:09:46,359 --> 01:09:49,560 think is why we spend so much time on Twitter and all store 1256 01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:51,720 and all the podcast because, you know, we get lonely. 1257 01:09:52,240 --> 01:09:55,640 And so orange flap is the solution to that problem of like 1258 01:09:55,840 --> 01:09:58,360 being a big corner. It's a lonely journey. 1259 01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:01,880 But then, you know, so then I launched the app. 1260 01:10:02,680 --> 01:10:05,320 Actually, I launched you out literally like FTXI, remember, 1261 01:10:05,320 --> 01:10:09,240 blew up on a Friday. We launch on a Wednesday after 1262 01:10:10,520 --> 01:10:13,000 literally at the bottom of the mark, which was a great time to 1263 01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:15,680 launch this app actually. But yeah, so we launch this app, 1264 01:10:16,120 --> 01:10:19,760 you know, it's a location based social network, so you'll find 1265 01:10:20,360 --> 01:10:23,760 big corners nearby. Of course, we don't deliver 1266 01:10:23,760 --> 01:10:27,720 pizza, so we don't use precise location. 1267 01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:30,480 We use approximate location, which is 10 miles. 1268 01:10:31,080 --> 01:10:36,080 And more importantly, we don't do KYC, so you can be anonymous 1269 01:10:36,080 --> 01:10:38,720 as you like. We don't do ads, so we don't 1270 01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:40,680 really care about you or your data. 1271 01:10:40,680 --> 01:10:42,880 So we don't sell your data. We don't track your data. 1272 01:10:42,920 --> 01:10:45,880 And so it's very private. And yeah, the goal is to find 1273 01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:48,360 local big corners, meet them, have fun. 1274 01:10:48,360 --> 01:10:51,320 You know, like I go to meet ups that are actually free of big 1275 01:10:51,320 --> 01:10:53,560 corners, not like the fake one that I went. 1276 01:10:54,000 --> 01:10:58,320 And and now because of the election and Trump, we finally 1277 01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:03,240 launched a wallet, which is lighting only it's super fast. 1278 01:11:03,240 --> 01:11:05,640 You can ZAP users. Yeah, there you go. 1279 01:11:05,640 --> 01:11:09,120 So it's you can ZAP user username. 1280 01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:14,200 We just launched mass zapping. And the other day, guys, I kid 1281 01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:19,280 you not, we did half of all lighting network transactions. 1282 01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:23,760 That's crazy. Which I was shocked we did 1283 01:11:23,760 --> 01:11:29,000 100,000 transaction in one day. And so we launch this thing 1284 01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:31,400 called Math ZAP. And so there are group chats in 1285 01:11:31,400 --> 01:11:34,320 our orange lab. And now you can just click on 1286 01:11:34,640 --> 01:11:39,200 the bolt icon and you can ZAP everybody in the group chat and 1287 01:11:39,200 --> 01:11:43,120 you can add a little message. So it's it's kind of a way to 1288 01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:45,520 get attention of other people. It's actually the, you know, one 1289 01:11:45,520 --> 01:11:48,360 of the best way. And yeah, so now we have this 1290 01:11:48,360 --> 01:11:49,840 wallet. We're going to launch something 1291 01:11:49,840 --> 01:11:53,080 special. I guess we can announce here 1292 01:11:53,720 --> 01:11:57,920 we're going to launch Geo Zapping, which is you're going 1293 01:11:57,920 --> 01:12:02,480 to be able to tap a city, let's say Miami, and then ZAP 1294 01:12:02,560 --> 01:12:07,400 everybody that is in that city. And so actually somebody just 1295 01:12:07,400 --> 01:12:11,640 told me that a great use case. So you guys remember the 1296 01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:17,840 Canadian truck process right? Now imagine if Geo zapping 1297 01:12:17,840 --> 01:12:21,240 existed back then. You could just type the cities 1298 01:12:21,240 --> 01:12:26,040 where all the truckers are and ZAP them, although like from all 1299 01:12:26,040 --> 01:12:29,360 over the world, you can just ZAP people in all anonymous by the 1300 01:12:29,360 --> 01:12:32,200 way, because we don't do KYC, so there's no trace of that. 1301 01:12:33,200 --> 01:12:36,880 So we're launching Joe's app in this week and maybe tomorrow. 1302 01:12:37,400 --> 01:12:40,760 And yeah, so it's, you know, it's so we have a wallet, it's 1303 01:12:40,760 --> 01:12:43,880 a, it's a social network. And then later this year, we're 1304 01:12:43,880 --> 01:12:46,600 launching a ticketing platform for the events. 1305 01:12:47,160 --> 01:12:48,680 Very, very cool. Yeah, big fan. 1306 01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:51,280 Big fan of it. By the way, the Simply Bitcoin 1307 01:12:51,520 --> 01:12:53,200 group chat is popping off right now. 1308 01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:55,280 I'm going to read the last couple of message. 1309 01:12:55,880 --> 01:13:00,880 James says say hey Opti. Satoshi says hey Opti. 1310 01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:05,240 Chef Tommy says just checking in to make sure Opti holds his end 1311 01:13:05,240 --> 01:13:09,280 of the bargain. James says watching the show No 1312 01:13:09,280 --> 01:13:14,200 Alaska Mama says hey Opti. Chef Tommy says Opti and Niko 1313 01:13:14,200 --> 01:13:16,440 let's do a meet up and I'll cook hella steak. 1314 01:13:16,680 --> 01:13:20,680 So Opti is going to take a moment and join the simply 1315 01:13:20,680 --> 01:13:26,120 Bitcoin group chat and respond to all his friends and and and 1316 01:13:26,120 --> 01:13:28,920 fans. Anyways, yeah, this is a really 1317 01:13:28,920 --> 01:13:31,200 cool app. I've been using it for years 1318 01:13:31,440 --> 01:13:34,560 just watching Matteo develop. This has been absolutely 1319 01:13:34,560 --> 01:13:37,200 awesome. Opti is on the Orange Bull app 1320 01:13:37,200 --> 01:13:39,720 right now. Send him a, send him a question. 1321 01:13:39,720 --> 01:13:44,880 He will answer it live on air. And yeah, it's been a great it's 1322 01:13:44,880 --> 01:13:48,240 it's been a great experience I've had just using the app. 1323 01:13:48,240 --> 01:13:50,600 And one of the things, one of the highlights that I remember 1324 01:13:50,600 --> 01:13:53,320 again, was I didn't even know Mateo at the time. 1325 01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:58,040 And he was in Miami and he needed a place to stay. 1326 01:13:58,520 --> 01:14:00,560 And I was like, dude, I have a couch. 1327 01:14:00,800 --> 01:14:04,920 And, you know, he, I, he came at midnight and my wife was a 1328 01:14:04,920 --> 01:14:09,120 little bit scared and I couldn't see him in the hallway because 1329 01:14:09,120 --> 01:14:11,920 the light was off. So I just saw a very tall 1330 01:14:12,520 --> 01:14:15,680 Italian man. And he said, hi, I'm Mateo. 1331 01:14:15,680 --> 01:14:19,480 And I'm like, hey, I'm Nico. And I gave him, you know, a like 1332 01:14:19,480 --> 01:14:21,720 a blanket. And I showed him the couch. 1333 01:14:22,080 --> 01:14:23,880 And in the morning, I woke up and I was like, I'm going to 1334 01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:26,920 have breakfast with Mateo, but he wasn't there. 1335 01:14:26,920 --> 01:14:28,800 He was just gone. He was mysteriously gone. 1336 01:14:29,160 --> 01:14:31,760 And I figured out that Brian De Mint picked him up. 1337 01:14:32,880 --> 01:14:36,040 And it wasn't until like, at least a couple months that I 1338 01:14:36,040 --> 01:14:38,880 actually saw Mateo's face. I didn't know what he looked 1339 01:14:38,880 --> 01:14:41,760 like the longest time, but I knew his name. 1340 01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:47,080 But those are the only type of like special type of, you know, 1341 01:14:47,720 --> 01:14:51,320 a special type of events that you'll find in the orange pull 1342 01:14:51,320 --> 01:14:54,760 up. You won't find any altcoiners on 1343 01:14:54,760 --> 01:14:56,440 there. It's it's a, it's a Bitcoin 1344 01:14:56,440 --> 01:14:58,000 community. It's very lively. 1345 01:14:58,000 --> 01:15:00,840 It's very awesome. And you'll run into those types 1346 01:15:00,840 --> 01:15:03,360 of things, whether you know, it's just connecting with 1347 01:15:03,360 --> 01:15:05,880 people, right? You know, this is a movement. 1348 01:15:06,200 --> 01:15:08,240 The Bitcoin community is very special. 1349 01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:10,560 What Mateo was saying is, is very true. 1350 01:15:10,560 --> 01:15:12,280 Sometimes it's lonely to be a Bitcoiner. 1351 01:15:12,280 --> 01:15:17,480 It's hard to connect with people that share your your worldview. 1352 01:15:18,120 --> 01:15:20,560 There's there's not that many bitcoiners worldwide. 1353 01:15:20,560 --> 01:15:24,560 So the orange pull app makes it easy to find those Bitcoin 1354 01:15:24,560 --> 01:15:27,160 communities in those cities all over the world. 1355 01:15:27,160 --> 01:15:29,200 So it's a really, really cool resource. 1356 01:15:29,400 --> 01:15:32,640 Been recommending it for years. It's absolutely awesome. 1357 01:15:32,640 --> 01:15:35,040 Go to orangepullapp.com to get started. 1358 01:15:35,680 --> 01:15:39,520 Whine of kisses in the chat. Chat shadowy couch sleeper. 1359 01:15:40,360 --> 01:15:42,600 Something that Winekus does very, very well. 1360 01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:45,960 But yeah, I'm going to, I'm going to pass it on to Opti. 1361 01:15:45,960 --> 01:15:48,520 Opti. I mean, you got to, you got to 1362 01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:50,360 get on the orange palapa. I don't know what's happening 1363 01:15:50,360 --> 01:15:52,520 here. Well, first of all, I'm on it 1364 01:15:52,520 --> 01:15:55,800 and I'm responding, so, you know, get off my back here. 1365 01:15:55,800 --> 01:15:58,080 I just responded to the last three messages. 1366 01:15:58,080 --> 01:16:00,840 All right, so like, let's change the subject here because we're 1367 01:16:00,840 --> 01:16:04,560 here to talk about Mateo. Let's plug the lightning torch 1368 01:16:04,680 --> 01:16:07,080 before we go into why Muzz is here. 1369 01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:13,040 Yeah, so too. So when the Lighting Network 1370 01:16:13,040 --> 01:16:16,920 started back in 2017, there was this thing called the lighting 1371 01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:20,880 torch where people would just pass the torch to each other 1372 01:16:20,880 --> 01:16:24,240 like Jack Dorsey and Amanda Dell and other people like other 1373 01:16:24,240 --> 01:16:28,440 influencing the Bitcoin and then to raise funds for Bitcoin or 1374 01:16:28,760 --> 01:16:31,800 core developers. And so we thought, why don't we 1375 01:16:31,800 --> 01:16:33,160 do the same thing in Orange Velocity. 1376 01:16:33,160 --> 01:16:35,920 So we launched the wallet literally a month ago, actually, 1377 01:16:36,440 --> 01:16:41,240 and we've been passing this torch around to Orange members. 1378 01:16:41,560 --> 01:16:43,960 I think now we're like half a million SAT's, so we're almost 1379 01:16:43,960 --> 01:16:45,840 there. So once we get to a million 1380 01:16:45,840 --> 01:16:49,200 SAT's, we'll give it to open SAT's account. 1381 01:16:49,640 --> 01:16:53,400 And yeah, so if you want the torch, DM me or actually, sorry, 1382 01:16:53,400 --> 01:17:01,120 DM Opti, you press Secretary A. 100% Opti is going to be on the 1383 01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:06,160 app today all day, answering every question, every message 1384 01:17:06,400 --> 01:17:11,520 that you might get. So message Opti directly and if 1385 01:17:11,560 --> 01:17:16,000 if you don't just tag me on the simply Bitcoin group and I will 1386 01:17:16,000 --> 01:17:19,120 make sure to call Opti and get him on the app anyways. 1387 01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:23,320 We also have the one, the only must man in the house. 1388 01:17:23,880 --> 01:17:28,080 Muzz is the CEO and and founder of Lightning Ventures and 1389 01:17:28,080 --> 01:17:33,200 Thunder Funder and the Orange blab is now crowdfunding on 1390 01:17:33,200 --> 01:17:36,120 Thunder Funder. I'm going to pass the baton to 1391 01:17:36,120 --> 01:17:38,480 Muzzman Muzman. What does that mean? 1392 01:17:39,640 --> 01:17:43,840 What does that mean? And that's interim CEO of 1393 01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:45,680 Thunder Funder.
