It's all. Going to zero against Bitcoin.
It's going up forever. You're against Bitcoin.
You're against freedom, yo. Welcome to another episode of
Simply Bitcoin Live. You're number one source for the
peaceful Bitcoin revolution, breaking news culture of
magnetic warfare. We will be your guide through
the separation of money and state.
Michael Saylor literally saying the quiet part out loud.
He's saying basically that Bitcoin will 10X from here.
Now, there's a couple of things that he said needed to happen in
order for for that to be achieved.
But the important part here is that he didn't just say this on
a Twitter Spaces, right, with a bunch of anons like listening
that listening in. No, no, no.
He said this on the legacy corporate media and he said, you
know, Bitcoin will 10X from here.
If these three things happen, or a couple of these things happen
10X from 35K, where we're where we are currently sitting is
$350,000 Bitcoin. That's a really big statement.
But at the same time, I think he has the ability to say that
because obviously his strategy, using Bitcoin as an alternative
to holding dollars on his balance sheet clearly has
worked. But what are those three things
that he said needed to happen, Happen There needed to be a
change in the accounting rules, the FASBE accounting rules,
Check that off the list. That happened.
That was a big deal when that news broke.
The other thing he said needed to happen was that large banks
needed to have the ability to custody Bitcoin for their
institutional clients. Check that off the list.
Multiple banks in the United States and Europe are applying
for licenses in order to do that.
And then the third thing he said needed to happen, which was the
the approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF.
So most three things have happened on Twitter spaces,
which he didn't say this on the legacy corporate media.
He said if those three things happened, we'd be going to $5
million per coin. He wasn't as bullish on the
legacy corporate media, but he still said 10X, which is a huge,
huge jump from where we are now. So anyways, I thought that was
super noteworthy and I think that guys, we are in the
beginning of the next bull cycle.
We are in the first, you know, first innings of it.
I think we all feel it. We had a little bit of a tease
when the price of Bitcoin went from 27 K to 35.
I think it touched 26 and now it's been kind of hovering
around this area. That was a massive candle,
right? What was that like?
5-6 thousand dollars, $7000 in a day or two?
All of Bitcoin? Twitter was losing their minds.
If you've never experienced a full bull market cycle, that was
a tease of what is to come, strap in, hold on, don't trade.
Stay humble, Stack SAT. Stay solvent.
Because we still have about, you know, a year and a half.
Two years of this bull cycle left, and my intuition is
telling me it's going to be a little bit crazy this year.
There has never been a time in Bitcoin's history where the
amount of Bitcoin on exchanges, it continues to go lower.
And that wasn't the case last cycle.
It it would it was trending up for a while.
Now it's trending down, right? The hash rate continues to make
all time highs. The hash rate represents the
estimated amount of computational power actively
mining the Bitcoin network, theoretically making it more
secure, making it more difficult to attack, right?
So theoretically, the higher the higher the value proposition in
my opinion. So anyways, it looks like all
the stars and planets are aligning, but I want to bring up
Opti to talk to him about this because I think a lot of us are,
you know, specifically the class of 20/17/2018.
I think a lot of us have PTSD from the last cycle just because
it was a bit of a tease bro. It was a bit of a tease.
A lot of people had this expectation that Bitcoin was
going to hit 100K and it fell way short of that.
And I think American Huddle had this great thread over the the
weekend. I was just about to mention it.
Yeah, so he says. Bias is a mother effer.
Last bull. We had two blind.
We had two major blind spots. One.
A hundred. A 100K guarantee, Two higher
lows. In my opinion, the big blind
spot this bull is quote diminishing returns.
Many will sell far too much, far too soon.
Imagine selling 100K only to watch it explode to 500 K
shortly after. Pain right?
And one thing. Wait, Literally attacking Nico.
Love to see it. Shots on American auto.
It's good, it's good, it's good because that was like the
mainstream consensus. The mainstream consensus was
100K guaranteed. And I think a lot of people were
let down because of that. And now I think a lot of people
have PTSDA, lot of people got like, you know, disillusioned so
to speak. And I think people are
expecting, you know, diminishing returns.
That's what I've said. And I think that there is going
to be some type of diminishing returns.
But I also think that if the mainstream consensus is, you
know, we're only going to reach 100 KA, 120KA130K Bitcoin, you
know, Bitcoin tends to do the thing that everyone least
expects, you know. So I would be pleasantly
surprised. All I know is that I'm didn't
read, never selling, don't care, just gonna just gonna keep
stacking. So, you know, my feelings might
feel a certain way, I might might might feel a certain way,
but my actions are just huddle stack sats.
You know, needs to keep building up that stack.
That's it. Yeah, 100%.
Obviously that is what we talk about here all the time on the
show. And I also concur with American
Huddle I I'm definitely seeing that same thing.
And as much as we might believe in the wisdom of crowds.
We know that Bitcoin does most pain.
It's always Max Payne in Bitcoin and if everyone thinks
diminishing returns and we're probably not going to see
diminishing returns this cycle, I don't know.
I I keep saying that we are maybe, but not really entering a
super cycle type scenario. God, we're bringing back the
Super. I gots too.
But no, I I really don't think
it's super cycle. I just.
I see a perfect storm headed
towards us and it's really about institutional adoption as
Bitcoin does break that six figure number.
The amount of FOMO we're going to see from retail, the amount
of attention we're going to see from the corporate press, it's
just like look what we did in 2017 when we got into it.
And it wasn't nearly as big or as mature as it is now.
So I don't know, I I'm just feeling that maybe we are wrong
and we're all being conservative just because we all do have PTSD
from calling ridiculous prices last cycle.
And on the flip side, I feel like I'm taking crazy pills here
because I remember like a 10% shift in one day wasn't God
candles. And here we're calling it God
candles just because we've had two years of getting absolutely
kicked in the teeth. So I think it's going to be a
great, great 2024 going to 2025. It's all I'm saying.
I think we have a little bit.
I think, I think I, you know, I think we, we do have a little
bit of PTSDI think that is undeniable.
I think a lot of people had higher expectations for, you
know, for the next cycle, but clearly that wasn't the case.
But it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter.
Stay humble.
Stay solvent. Oh, Ruston's in the chaff.
There was a setup for a super cycle.
This is it. Oh.
Ruston gets it. Ruston's ultra bullish by the
way. Shout out to Ruston dropping Hot
fire over the weekend. Wait oh wait wait, shouts out to
everyone. We made it the 21 K on YouTube

instead of just writing them on paper.
Don't store your generational wealth on paper.
Papers prone to water damage, fire damage.

the strongest metals on planet earth, Titanium.
Your words are actually stamped into this metal plate with this
hammer and these letter stamps. And once your words are in, they
aren't going anywhere. No risk of the plate breaking
apart and pieces falling everywhere.
Titanium stamp seeds will survive nearly triple the heat
produced by a house fire. They're also crush proof,
waterproof, non corrosive, and time proof.
All things that paper is not allowing you to huddle your
Bitcoin with Peace of Mind for the long haul.

All right, ladies and gentlemen, this is the Chad Sailor on
legacy corporate me on Squawk on it's Squawk box.
I think it's the name of the show on CNNBC and he had some
things to say which I find interesting.
Let's check it out. For the industry to move to the
next, we need to migrate to adult supervision.
We're going to need big banks to become the crypto custodians.
We're going to need Wall Street to take a role and we need to
rationalize away from the 100,000 crypto tokens, you know
yo-yo coins that people are manipulating to Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is a is an asset without an issuer.
It is the one universally recognized protocol that's a
commodity in the space. So when banks on Wall Street and
responsible custodians are managing Bitcoin and the
industry takes its eyes away from all of the shiny little
tokens that have distracted and and demolished shareholder
value, I think the industry moves to the next level and we
10X from here for the industry. I mean, that's a huge statement.
It's obviously a lot more reserved than what he was saying
on Twitter Spaces. But there is a couple of things
that he said needed to happen. And we're gonna go through all
of those things because when he said that on Twitter spaces,
when he's saying this on on, you know, on TV.
And I'm sure that this is a very unpopular opinion with a lot of
bitcoiners, right, Because he's saying, look, the grown-ups need
to get in the room, You know, Wall Street needs to get
involved. The big banks need to get
involved. And here's the thing, guys.
I come from the opinion as a hardcore bitcoiner myself that
yeah, like, you know, Bitcoin is the money event of enemies.
Wall Street is going to be attracted to Bitcoin's
incentives. Big banks are going to be
attracted to Bitcoin's incentives.
BlackRock is going to be attracted to Bitcoin's
incentives. But there's a very famous saying
that Max Keiser is known for, right?
Which is you don't change Bitcoin, Bitcoin changes you,
right? And I think that that, I think
that applies to everything and everyone, right?
I, I, I just don't think that only applies to individuals.
But I think Sailor is right. If you do have that much
interest from these massive players you know that are worth
trillions of trillions, trillions of dollars, it
perfectly makes sense why Bitcoin with 10X from there,
right? Makes perfect sense.
Anyways, so where are, what are the what are the The couple of
things that Sailor said needed to happen.
First was the change in the FASB accounting roles.
And that was a big deal because essentially a company could only
report if it had gains to the upside.
But it couldn't report that it had gains to the downside.
And that was a huge that made it a big headache for anyone
holding Bitcoin, especially if you're a public company.
That changed. That was September 6th.
That was a huge deal when that happened, and we reported it
when it happened. The other thing that he
mentioned, which was big banks needed to have the ability to
custody Bitcoin for their clients.
This has happened as well. You could check that off.
The list here is just the latest example.
This article dropped five hours ago, third largest German bank
to start crypto custody for institutional investors, right.
So it's banks all over the world, in Europe and the United
States. We've covered many, many press
releases and many pieces of news that, you know, have reported
just that. And then the other big thing
that I think everyone is waiting for is the Black Rock Bitcoin
ETF. You can make the case that
that's the reason that Bitcoin pumped from 28K to 35K under the
expectation that that was going to get approved very, very soon
and very, very quickly, right. So those are the three major
things. And look, talk is cheap.
You could say that what sailors saying is just, you know, it's
it's just a bunch of nonsense. But he is covering his talk with
his actions. Here is November 2nd, so about
3-4 days ago. MicroStrategy buys an additional
155 more Bitcoin in October. So he's putting his money where
his mouth is. Like he's not just talking the
talk, he's walking the walk. And you know, I'm, I'm extremely
bullish for the next cycle because unlike 2018, unlike 2019
where that was the big narrative, the institutions are
coming. That was how we coped with the
price falling from 20K to 35 to 3.5 K Clearly the institutions
are here and I think they're here to stay.
And I think you see that with BlackRock, you see that with
Fidelity, you see that with Franklin Templeton, you see that
with these large institutional banks saying, hey, we want to
custody Bitcoin, like all the signs are there, all the signs
are there. It's it's incredibly obvious.
BlackRock is one of the largest shareholders of all these
publicly traded Bitcoin mining companies, right.
You see it, it's, it's, it's written on the wall.
Not to mention on the nation state level you have Naimbu Kele
Yeah I am. I completely agree with Sailor.
I think that it's an easy 10X from here.
I'm I'm going on the record saying that Opti cuz yeah man,
it's it's just it's it's incredibly obvious dude to be
honest. Well, what's what's the saying?
You can either predict. How high the price goes or or
when the price goes up? I I forget what the what the
meme is, but so I say that to say Nico, at what time frame is
this 10X for you? I don't know.
I can't say that.
See. Literally the meme in real time.
I'll. I'll tell you it's going up.
I just can't tell you what. I know it's going up.
I just don't know. I just don't know.
Look I I like I said that I that's why I read you that
American huddle tweet in the very beginning.
I'm a bit jaded from the last bull market.
I don't know. You know, if it does, like you
know, American huddle said it best.
People are expecting 130 K Bitcoin and then this bad boy
rips the 500 K Bitcoin like no one fucking knows.
I mean what 10X from 35 K? What's that like 350K?
Yeah. OK, you know, I don't know what
sailor's time frame is either, but if he's saying 10X in this
bull run, let's go, OK? Giga.
Chad Saylor. I don't know.
I don't know what his time frame is.
I don't think anyone could be. Wait, wait.
Hold on. Hold on.
Opti's wisdom for the crowd. My super cycle.
Let's fucking go. Go.
So in the space of 5 minutes, Nico went from No Super Cycle 2.
It's a super cycle. Hold on, Hold on, hold on, hold
on is a 10 XA super cycle. I wouldn't consider it.
A super cycle, I don't think. I think super cycle is the idea
that it's never going to come down.
There won't ever be dips again. Yeah, like I I don't think a 10X
is a super cycle. People forget like 2017.
That was like a that was more than A20I.
Think that was a 20X? Yeah, from 1K to 20, you know
that was in 2017. But from the bottom to the top,
like it was like a 40X. It was nuts, right?
Fact Check us No, no, no dude. It went from like it went from
like 3, four, $500 to 20 K That's way more than.
Oh, yeah. OK, OK.
I see what you're saying. Yeah, it's way more than 20X.
And then the last cycle, I think it was like a like.
It went from literally nothing to $1000.
Yeah, yeah. And then the last cycle, I think
the last cycle was a bit of a let down 'cause I think a lot of
people were expecting more, but there's a couple of things that
played into that. The first thing was the China
ban that happened, which a lot of people don't talk about and
it's OK to be directionally correct.
That's funny. Thanks, Bart, But no, no, no.
So there's a couple things that happened.
So first it was the China ban, in my opinion, played a huge
role and why we then hit 100K, it like took the momentum out of
it. And then the other thing that
happened was, I can't stay serious if you're just laughing.
And then there's a great comment here.
What is this? Simply bears?
OK, And then the other thing that happened was it was the
China ban. And then it was all like the FTX
selling paper Bitcoin. And all, yeah, I think that's
the biggest thing. People forget just how much
paper Bitcoin there really was in the market and we didn't
realize it until what like four years later or something like
that. So maybe the 2017 pump was was
kind of lifted with paper Bitcoin, but it it took the bear
market to. To clear it out Anyways,
anyways, let me let me get back into this this this video here
real quick before Nico Nico rants about something else about
him being bearish on a super cycle.
Nico's bearish. Nico's bearish hashtag.
Nico's bearish. I I hope to be proven wrong.
I'm taking the Vikingo stance where he's like, bro, this isn't
going anywhere. Like we're just gonna we're
gonna hit 100K and that's it. I wanna be proven wrong.
Either ways, it doesn't matter to me because I don't trade.
I just stay humble, stack sats, perfect.
But I have. I have low expectations.
I'm not gonna lie, I have low expectations.
Love it. OK, all right.
You know, I think I'm going to say what every bitcoiner is
probably thinking when they hear this clip by Sailor.
I don't know exactly how I feel about that opening statement of
we need the adults, you know, the banks in the space to
custody, Bitcoin. Maybe this is just my knee jerk.
I know, I know. Maybe this is just my knee jerk
reaction. But you know, from my vantage
point, it's the banks are the reason why we're in this
position in the 1st place. So the big short quote kind of
comes into mind at the very end of that movie.
I'm sure everyone's watched a big short multiple Times Now.
By now you know the the the what's the what's the saying
like the the Roosters come home to crow or roost or whatever.
You know at the very end when the when the final shoe drops.
Adam Carell, I think his name is like the main guy in the head of
the fun. He's on the phone with his buddy
and he's like I think it's now, now the time to sell like this
is we got we got a fiduciary responsibility and he basically
said at the very end of the movie and this of course is a
2008 financial collapse and he's like there are no adults in the
room like the the this is what we've seen in the last, you
know, since the financial collapse.
Like there is no adults in the room, there is no sober
fiduciary responsibility. They are gambling with their
money and but I do agree with the sentiment of separating the
yo-yo coins from Bitcoin and that will squeeze the price up.
You know, incredible. And once people understand the
difference between Bitcoin and shit coins like that, Bitcoin is
a different beast. That bull run, that when that
cycle and that understanding finally does kick in like that
bull run is going to be absolutely insane.
But I think this does really give credence to what we've been
saying on the show and what I've been saying recently ever since
we've we've, you know, all of our cynical friends out there,
like, uh, we're embracing BlackRock now.
It's like guys, this is Bitcoin maturing in real time.
I'm gonna stick to what I I'm gonna stick to what I said, bro.
I think. That you don't change Bitcoin.
Bitcoin changes you. Yeah, 100%.
I I'm going to, and that's what I was going to say.
And I was going to double down on that.
I was going to double down on that because like if Bitcoin
can't withstand the institutional adoption, then
like, what are we doing here? Because we we knew that this
moment was inevitable. And it really reminds me of how
Finney shouts out to the GOAT, how Finney, he did that one
post. I think it was like 20, like
right when Bitcoin got released. It's on Bitcoin talk forum.
You guys could Fact Check me on the date, but he basically said
that some banks will be fully reserved and others won't and
the market will learn The less the necessary lessons you know
in real time they'll understand what it means to, you know,
fully hold Bitcoin or rather letting someone else hold your
Bitcoin. So the market will learn these
lessons and eventually it will all go back to people fully
holding and custodying their own Bitcoin.
Hence why we tell you guys upfront from the very beginning,
from the very get go custodying Bitcoin is the most important
thing to be doing. And you know I believe that a
fractional reserve money and banks are the reason why we're
in this place in the first 1st place.
So hence why I embrace every single one of you guys custom
your Bitcoin. Make sure you are holding the
private keys, not your keys, not your Bitcoin.
Stay humble, stacks at stay solvent.
Who knows where the price is going.
All we know it's going up forever, Laura.
Let us know. Let us know in the comment.
Actually, Opti, let's release a poll.
Let's release a poll. Let's make this interactive.
Let's the poll is do you believe that Bitcoin will reach 350K?
We're speculating 2025 Bull cycle.
Yeah, fuck it. I'm not saying anything.
You're not saying anything. I just, I wanna ask the crowd.
You guys know that I'm a bit bull a bearish here, but I like
American, Huddle pointed out. Right.
That's the blind spot. But let's ask the audience.
Let's ask the audience to see what that's live.
Okay, we're dropping the pole. We'll touch on it.
We'll touch it during the meme review.
They're in the meme review or they're in the culture.
We'll see what the culture might be a little.
But yeah, I mean, I don't know. I don't know.
I honestly don't know. I have 0 expectations for this.
I had a lot of expectations for 100K, Bitcoin 2020, Two.
We're such jaded bitcoiners now. We're like the old guys in the
room. Now I'm.
Slowly been around for so long but it's hey, we know this,
this. It's going up forever Laura.
This is true. This is true.

So the big news is we're going to talk about the Better flag
theory. What is the Better Flag Theory?
The Better Flag Theory is a theory.
That essentially and also it was talked a little bit about during
the book the sovereign individual.
But it's basically the general gist of it is this idea that
people and businesses are going to flock to where they're
treated best. And that over time what that was
going to do, it was going to create competition between
jurisdictions and when competition is created between
jurisdictions you? The sovereign individual wins
because you're gonna get to pick and choose where you want to
live and where you want to set up, right?
Because it makes sense. Like Opti and I have talked
about this many, many times. We say it jokingly, but at the
same time we're very seriously, we're very serious and we say
look, if all else fails. We're probably going to move to
El Salvador and set up shop in El Salvador.
It's very, very attractive, right, especially with the, you
know, the, the laws that they passed basically exempting, you
know, tech businesses from income tax, right.
It's, you know, and and this is you're going to see more of this
and you see a little bit of this happening in the US.
Because of the sovereignty of the individual states, right?
So when California and New York were very, very hard on
businesses during the pandemic, you saw a massive exodus of
people fleeing from New York and California going to Texas and
Florida, right? When other states are hostile to
Bitcoin mining, like New York State, Texas is becoming
incredibly friendly towards Bitcoin mining, right?
And that creates competition, right?
And then competition. Is a good thing for you as an
individual. You want jurisdictions to
compete for your business, right?
That's how you that's how you win personally.
So anyways, I thought this was really interesting.
Here is Steven Loca. He is the head of Swan private
at Swan Bitcoin and he said China may pursue a spot Bitcoin
ETF to compete with BlackRock. Here's Arthur Hayes.
Arthur Hayes is the founder the Co founder of Bit Mex and he
says competition is amazing. If the US has its proxy asset
manager BlackRock launching an ETF, China needs its proxy asset
manager to launch one too. the US versus China economic war is
great for Bitcoin. And remember, we've covered this
many times with the complete 180 that happened when right China
banned Bitcoin mining. And then a couple months later
you started to see this news coming out of Hong Kong.
How Hong Kong was planning to become this so-called crypto hub
and remember it? Apparently it's, you know, one
country, two systems. But Hong Kong is completely
controlled by the CCP, right? Which is the ruling party of the
of mainland China. So anything that happens in Hong
Kong needs a stamp of approval from the CCP.
But what's really interesting is that because it's Hong Kong is
isolated from the rest of the rest of the mainland, it's like
they're using it like this, like this bridge to the West, this
bridge to the rest of the world, right.
They can keep their populace under control in the mainland,
and they could use Hong Kong as this experimentation ground,
right? Which I I find very, very
interesting. And I think Arthur Hayes hit the
nail on the head, right, If the US has its proxy asset manager,
BlackRock, right, it's a very strong statement.
But I agree with it. China needs its proxy asset
manager to launch one too, right?
And I kept saying this, guys, when this is happening,
everybody wins. In this case, when this happens,
everybody wins. Anyways, moving on to the actual
news. Here it is by Bloomberg Hong
Kong mulls allowing spot crypto ETFs in pursuit of Asia hub.
It goes on to say Hong Kong is assessing whether to allow
Exchange Traded funds that invest directly in crypto as
officials set up steps to create an Asia Pacific Digital Asset
Hub. While tackling the fallout of
the JPX scandal. The city is weighing retail
investor access to such spot ETFs, providing regulatory
concern. Concerns are met.
It goes on to say, quote we welcome proposals using
innovative technology that boosts efficiency and customer
experience. It goes on to say we're happy to
give it a try as long as new risks are addressed.
Our approach is consistent regardless of the asset.
The crypto sector sees ETFs as a way of making digital assets
more mainstream since the funds are readily available to a
variety of investors. Bitcoin has surged 110% this
year, partly on expectations at the likes of Black Rock.
Will soon win permission to start the first US spot ETS for
the token ETF Outlook. Both Hong Kong and the US are
currently allowing future based crypto ETFs, but the take up has
been modest compared to the overall size of the fund
industry. The Asian city currently lists
the Samsung Bitcoin Futures Active, the CSOP Bitcoin Futures
and the CSOP Ethers Futures. They have a combined they have
combined assets of about $65 million.
Just how pop spot funds will be is an open question following
the digital following, the 2022 digital asset route and the
conviction of SPF for the multibillion dollar FTX fraud
which damages Crypto's reputation.
I agree with that statement. I think it definitely damages
Crypto's reputation, but I don't think it damages Bitcoin's
reputation. Bitcoin is not crypto.
It goes on to say Hong Kong rolled out a dedicated virtual
asset regulatory framework in June, part of an effort to
restore its luster as a cutting edge financial center.
The rules seek to woo companies but also focus on investor
protection, a need underlined by the alleged Hong Kong $1.6
billion fraud. That recently erupted in the
city at an unlicensed JPX crypto exchange quote.
The incident underscores A requirement for robust,
comprehensive regulatory framework.
The SFC has enhanced transparency over applications
for Virtual Asset Exchange license.
So anyways, I think the point is made.
This is awesome. You're seeing the bag theory
play out in real time, and you know when jurisdictions compete.
Or your business, they compete for you to come and set up shop
where they are so that they can benefit from the tax revenue you
win as an individual. Now this was all predicted back
in the 90s in the book that I highly recommend and I talk
about every single show in the book, the sovereign individual,
this is what they were talking about.
When jurisdictions compete for your business, you win.
So more of this. This is a good thing.
And I love the way that Arthur Hayes framed it because I think
it was the most effective way. I think it was the best way,
right When different jurisdictions, when if the US
has its proxy manager, BlackRock, China needs one as
well, right? He's just, you know, he's he's
taking out the veneer. He's taking out the bullshit.
He's he's speaking it as it, you know, like it is.
So yeah, man, this is this is pretty crazy.
Now, a couple things right, 'cause we are a Bitcoin show
after all. I think a lot of Bitcoiners are
very skeptical of of of, you know, of these ETFs.
Rightly, rightly so. But I'm gonna keep doubling down
on that Max quote because I think it is the most, it is the
most, is the most appropriate here.
I think a lot of Bitcoiners think that BlackRock is gonna
change Bitcoin. I think it's going to be Bitcoin
that changes BlackRock and I think that a lot of the, you
know, so-called evil actions that you see about you see from
these giant institutions, whether you know it's BlackRock,
the World Economic Forum, the World Bank, the IMF.
It's not necessarily that these people are inherently evil.
I think that they're paying their mortgages off as well too.
I think you know inflation infects effects them as well.
I just genuinely think that they think they're doing what's best
for everybody else. And I think that the incentive
structure is misaligned. And as long as the incentive
structure is misaligned, they're just acting out of their own,
out of their own self-interest. But their own self-interest is
to really just hurt everybody else so that they could benefit
themselves. Under Bitcoin Standard, you
acting out of your own self-interest actually makes the
Bitcoin network stronger, and in the process, it makes Bitcoin
more valuable. And everybody wins, right.
And I think it's very, very difficult to imagine from within
the Fiat matrix how a world can exist where every, every facet
of society is just acting out of their own self-interest and it's
helping everybody else. I think it's very, very, it's
very difficult to imagine from our perspective, but we do have
a case study. We do have a case study.
It's no longer theoretical, which is El Salvador, right?
You have a country that fixed the base layer of society.
And I don't think it's a coincidence that they have the
most popular president in the Americas.
You have President Naimbu Kelly over a 90% approval rating.
I don't think it's a coincidence that the country that made
Bitcoin legal tender, the president of that country has
that level of approval rating. I don't think that's a
coincidence. I think that.
We El Salvador is an example of a society who's fixed their
incentive structure and a society who's slowly
transitioning completely to a sound money standard.
And of course you're going to get the beneficial effects of
that. Just like it's affected my life,
just like just like it's affected Opti's life.
Just like it's benefiting Chad Saylor who's you know, basically
saying bitcoins going to 10X on on mainstream media.
So yeah, man, that's my take on this, Opti.
Where's your mind at? Yeah.
So one second. Not only are we seeing the
Better Flag Theory play out like you're mentioning, we're seeing
kind of that meme that safety and always talks about that you
cannot isolate yourself from the consequences of holding bad
money. Or rather, in the flip side, the
hard money game is a global phenomenon.
And I had this thought this morning, or rather I think it
was last night when I saw that this news kind of popped off on
Twitter. I know simply Bitcoin, you know,
Nico and I, we we are kind of America first because we are
Americans. So we kind of always view this
through an American lens. But Bitcoin is global and.
It's very easy for us to forget that.
But this hard money game, the Bitcoin game, the Bitcoin
monetary experiment is a global phenomenon.
And as much as we do cover what's going around the world,
we we try to be as global as possible and we cover things
that are happening in Bitcoin everywhere around the world.
It is kind of easy for us to always view this through an
American centric lens. And so, you know, in that
context, it's awesome to see that we are seeing the
competitions of hard money being played out.
You know, the game theory of Bitcoin being played out on a
geopolitical level, on on the nation state level and you know
the US as much as they're trying and and let's connect this with
what we've been seeing the last couple of weeks coming out of
the bureaucrats and the central bankers and the Fed.
You know, as much as the US is trying to fight Bitcoin, you
know, we got Elizabeth Warren out there painting us all as
criminals and doing whatever she can to basically gaslight the
individuals out there from not embracing Bitcoin.
And and rather, you know, scaring legislation and and
regulation, you know, The Dirty words away from treating Bitcoin
properly. the US can't isolate themselves from the consequences
of fighting hard money. And we're seeing this happen in
real time and you just love to see it.
And, you know, finally I can embrace the meme of the US
should follow China's lead. You know, for for forever on
this show, I've been kind of trolling all our politicians to
say, oh, we need to follow China and make a digital CBDC system.
It's like, what the hell is going on?
Now? They're kind of, you know, stuck
between what's that Hard Rock in a hard place where it's like,
OK, what the hell is Gary Gensley doing over there?
We know he taught a class on MIT.
We know that every there's institutional and retail
interest in a Bitcoin ETF product.
He even said it. We we we caught him in 14.
Exactly. They gave you a video of him.
Exactly. I don't know why the spot
Bitcoin ETF hasn't been approved.
Like it's so clearly political. But, like, the beauty of this is
like the incentives of Bitcoin are so irresistible that even
like it's just like even the CCP, one of the most
totalitarian governments on the face of the planet.
Like they ban it and then they're just like, no, no, no,
no, no, wait a second. We still want to benefit from
this, right? So I think it's just a testament
to bitcoins incentives and I think that's why we're going to
win this. At the end of the day, Bitcoins
incentives are superior to any offerings from the government,
whether that's bonds, whether that's Fiat money, it it's just
superior. And I think over time more and
more people are just gonna to to to use Larry Fink's own words.
I think there's gonna be a flight to quality and like
Bitcoin clearly is that mother effing quality.
Like, it's very very clear and I think as time goes by.
It will become more and more and more apparent.
Anyways, Opti yeah, yeah, just one of the last thing is, is
just remember that Bitcoin is basically like a Mexican
standoff. Like the the consensus of
Bitcoin is a Mexican standoff between the miners, the users,
the businesses. And then literally on a global
macro level, people will need to hold Bitcoin just to protect
themselves. Because if you don't hold the
hardest money in the room, it is your wealth that is getting
funneled. So everyone needs to do it to
protect themselves. Again, using safety and meme
like people will adopt Bitcoin out of necessity like gunpowder.
Even though Bitcoin is protection, it is a shield from
theft. It is a shield from inflation.
It is a shield from getting debased and holding something
that can hold value long term. If you don't do it and your
neighbor does or your enemy does, they are going to get
wealthier. And we're seeing this game
theory play out in real time and you just love to see it.
We just, we're front running everyone guys, you're so far
ahead of the game. It's so beautiful.
I know we, I know we always like, I don't know, try to try
to attack each other because we disagree on like point O 1% of
you know with the information. But like holding Bitcoin is the
winning move. The winning move is holding
Bitcoin. 100 percent, 100%, by the way, guys.
Yeah dude, this is your opportunity to front run Wall
Street 100% guys. If you're joining the show, make

definitely do that for you guys as well, though I will.
Kind of $120.00 worth of value. I might yeah, and and maybe
we'll throw in some extra little goodies in there, but you're
definitely going to get a stamp seed kit.
That's for you guys in the chat though, we I do kind of have to
give the caveat that we are trying to do this.
It's easiest for us to do it to our US audience, but if you
happen to be the winner and you're outside of the US, I'm
sure we can figure out something how to get this to you guys.
So we're doing this live and then to everyone else.

He kind of yelled at me apparently I I didn't do the I
didn't do the giveaway as best as I could have.
So I am going to continue to do the other prizes for you guys
that are replay viewers on YouTube on in our telegram and
on Twitter. I I'm going to extend it for one
more week. I will do a tweet about it and
stuff and and do a little more kind of little things that you
got to do so that we can we can push this a little bit.
But anyways I'll I'll get that for you guys.
So the other giveaways I'm going to postpone until next Monday.
We have no guests next Monday so I'll do another giveaway for you

year long. Whether it's you guys just kind
of chilling with us one day or not one day, a couple of days.
You know, just people that I'd known that you've been with us
all year long. I the the names that I'm
familiar with. I added you guys to a list.
I'm doing, I'm doing yeah, I'm lit.
I just was doing kind of a few extra ones in here just so that
I know that I see you guys and and I know you're in here as
well. That's kind of why I was delayed
a little bit. And so guys, you know, forgive
me. This is the first time I'm using
it. I've never used this before, so
I don't want anyone to like actually me like, bro, it's not
fully random. Like, This is why I'm doing it

So look, I added, let's see how many people, 38 of you guys in
here that I that I know for sure.
You've been hanging out with us every single basically every
single day on simply Bitcoin in the live chat.
If you guys, if I didn't get your name on there, like forgive

We'll going to do this live on air, but again, I will be doing
a giveaway for you guys from our Telegram group and our Twitter
audience and the YouTube playback.

every one of our supporters is getting at least has a chance to
get something. So I don't want to feel.
I don't want you guys to yell at me like, oh, they're doing
favoritism to the people that can show up live.

That's what it is. We're giving, we're giving a
little, a little, a little back anyways, Opti, how about that,
how about I'll say it now to 42 K we'll we'll do another one.
Oh, OK. All right.
So I do want to end this poll so that we know the results.
There was 200 of you voting, dude, the chats undefeated.
No, we can't. We can't talk about this, guys.
Remember the Overton window? We're on YouTube, guys.
We're on YouTube. Shift it.
OK, so we did run. A poll says do you believe
Bitcoin will reach 350K? In twenty 2565% of you said yes,
34% of you said no. So the chat and two, there was
200 votes. So the chat is ultra effing
bullish right now. They're super, super super
bullish. 65% feel like Bitcoin is going to break 350K or hit.
Well can't wait can't wait till our our poll chat in the YouTube
is statistically relevant with 2000 of you guys live in there
doing the the poll results so we we so we can be like a official
like corporate press site over here anyways oh man what a day
what a day. All right, this is the meme
review guys, where you send us memes on Twitter, tag the at
simply Bitcoin TV account or drop them in our telegram group.
T dot me slash simply Bitcoin TVI.
Look in there. Every morning I I add your
guys's tags to our show notes. I may not be able to get to them
all, but tweets are the bullets. Memes are the artillery Tag your
favorite memers memes or even tag yourself.
I am not above nepotism when it comes to the meme review, but as
you can tell, we are in an information war.
Spreading the signal is the utmost priority.
Making sure people are taking Bitcoin into custody.
This is the way. This is how we win all right.
Anyways, 1st meme is by Marcus Connor, NH.
He's actually the artist that does the like Bitcoin, the
little Bitcoin coin guys, and this is a play on the Drake
hotline bling. As we covered a little bit on
last week's show, apparently Bitcoin Magazine is getting sued
for copyright infringement on this Fed Now logo.
Explain that better, bro. The Federal Reserve, I got it
here. I got it right here.
Central Bank and. Read it.
Read it live.
Is threatening to sue. They sent a cease and desist
letter to Bitcoin Magazine for misrepresenting the Fed Now
brand like it's alleging apparel that parodies its Fed Now
system. Is not protected speech, but
copyright infringement. Or like bro bro.
The best part is that there's like a Fed stooge over there
that's like watching Bitcoin Magazine content and like, hey
Jay Powell, I think, I think we got to do something about this.
Actually the most disgusting part about this is that they
were saying that they were trying to associate themselves
with the Fed Now it's like, no, it was literally the opposite.
It's it's ridiculing the Fed now.
Anyways, we got the little Bitcoin logo doing the hotline
bling. No.
And it goes Fed now 24/7 instant payments.
No, that's not what it's about. But it's the yes and the Fed now
because it's been Big Brother dystopian technology, central
bank, digital control mechanism. Convince me otherwise.
Okay next one is by Don Bay. He hung out with us on Thursday,
AKA at Baywatch One on Twitter and he goes in the mind of Joe
Carlos. Sorry.
This is how the exchange between Jay Powell and David Bailey is
going right now regarding the Fed trying to stop Bitcoin
Magazine for making Fed Now parody shirts.
And you see Jay Powell here looking at his cell phone and
he's running an old old iPhone too.
What is this like iPhone three or something like that Anyways
he's texting Big Mac Bitcoin mag and goes guys just take it down
please. And Bitcoin magazine response.
Fed now, you done effed up should've stuck to rates Then he
goes, Jay Powell goes see This is why no one takes you guys
over Bitcoin seriously And then Bitcoin mag response.
We seriously going to own the Fed and Jay Powell response?
See you guys. Point proven.
More like point dropped. You won't.
OK, I'm done here. That's exactly how it went down.
OK, next one. This one is family friendly.
Ish shouts at the Cluckies. Shouts at the Copernicus for
tagging me. We have a guys.
Always Copernicus, bro. Yeah, this is actually a good
meme. This is actually funny.
We got a man soliciting a street Walker and he goes $50, whatever
you want, baby. And he goes, Can you help me fix
my node? Really be like that.
I don't care about anything else, just my node is acting up.
How do you fix this? I will pay you.
In your Bitcoin node? As in a Bitcoin as in a Bitcoin
node? Exactly.
Dude, get your thoughts out of the gutter.
Nika geez okay. Next one is my Rd. under score
BTC. It's always Copernicus and it
goes performance enhancing books, hashtag Bitcoin hashtag
education. And we got a guy with a syringe
needle going straight into his brain and it is the Bitcoin
standard the Fiat standard and Principles of economics and I
think we can add Broken Money by Lynn Alden they are come all
coming out of Safa Dean Productions.
I I need to get me that one but I've I've been hearing really
good things. I need to refresh.
All right. Next one is rope and shouts out
the rope because he's very much one of those cynical bit corners
I was talking about in the beginning, saying that we're big
corners but we're embracing BlackRock.
Anyways, we got the classic girl yelling at the cat meme and
she's yelling at it's like what, Housewives or Bachelorette or
something, I don't know. And he goes, I thought you
wanted to build black markets And the cat with the laser eyes
says no. I said I want BlackRock to pump
the market. And he's got, he's got the
Kermit the Frog tea. Coming here, but hey dude, this
is soup. That's not tea or coffee.
That's that's a soup with the frog.
So you need to up your meme game rope.
OK, next one is by our boy Nick Camp mine, and we got a picture
here of Elizabeth Warren plastered on top of the officer
from Inglorious Basterds and goes.
