1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,640 Michael Saylor just did what nobody thought was possible, 2 00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:05,880 break the barrier and get Wall Street's blessing for Bitcoin. 3 00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:09,840 For the first time ever, a major credit rating agency just rated 4 00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:12,000 a Bitcoin treasury company in strategy. 5 00:00:12,120 --> 00:00:15,720 In doing so, it unlocks a monsoon of capital from pension 6 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:18,440 sovereigns, countries who can now buy Bitcoin through 7 00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:20,480 traditional means and capital flows. 8 00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,640 And on the same day we see Larry Fink talking about Bitcoin in 9 00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:26,560 roundtables with the wealthiest people in the world, important 10 00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:29,680 political figures like Eric Trump are also backing it. 11 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:32,840 And this came from the efforts of one man telling people to 12 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,440 sell their livers and kidneys to buy Bitcoin. 13 00:00:35,440 --> 00:00:36,880 We were staying. At the patio in Mar a Lago, 14 00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:39,480 Michael and I and we were kind of geeking outgoing down this 15 00:00:39,480 --> 00:00:41,520 this rabbit hole. And he goes, Eric, you know, you 16 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,960 need to take this property and Mar a Lago has no debt on it. 17 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:45,960 You need to take this property, you need to mortgage it right 18 00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:47,480 now and you need to go out and buy Bitcoin. 19 00:00:47,640 --> 00:00:48,760 By the way, he was dead serious, right? 20 00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:50,960 He's the guy that goes out and says, you know, you know, sell 21 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:52,840 your liver and kidney and buy Bitcoin. 22 00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:54,080 And by the way, he's probably also. 23 00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,640 Because of the work of people like Michael Saylor, Bitcoin is 24 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:01,080 no longer in outsider asset. It's an asset for the insiders. 25 00:01:01,080 --> 00:01:03,080 It's becoming the foundation of global credit. 26 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:05,319 This is the beginning of the financial flipping. 27 00:01:05,519 --> 00:01:08,760 In 20 years, we won't recognize the system that we are living in 28 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:10,760 today. Bitcoin is going to become the 29 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:15,400 monetary standard of the world over the next two decades, and 30 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,400 my grandkids will transact in SAT's, not dollars. 31 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:22,200 The dollar will be gone. Bitcoin is the Somali pirate of 32 00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:25,520 the financial system. Look at me. 33 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:27,560 Sure. Look at me, sure. 34 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:33,800 I'm the captain now. Bitcoin is the captain now, and 35 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,120 Wall Street is finally realizing what's going on. 36 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:39,000 It is becoming the collateral for the next monetary system. 37 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:42,240 We've got a lot to cover today. This is Dante Cook with Bitcoin. 38 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:49,960 Simply, let's go SP Global assigned MicroStrategy. 39 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,960 My bad strategy AB minus credit rating marking the first time in 40 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:57,120 history that a Bitcoin treasury company is rated by a Wall 41 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,880 Street agency. Sounds boring, but it's not. 42 00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:02,520 It's the equivalent of discovering financial fire. 43 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:06,200 This now makes Bitcoin a mainstream asset in the eyes of 44 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,520 not just people like BlackRock and institutions, but creditors 45 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,000 all across the globe. The most interesting remarks 46 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,120 from the credit analysts when reading the report of the credit 47 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,440 rating, the B minus credit rating that they gave to 48 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,080 strategy, is that when they're actually looking at its credit 49 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,600 rating, they're deducting the value of their Bitcoin assets. 50 00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:28,160 They're saying the company has negative total adjusted capital, 51 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:31,480 which makes no sense considering they have over $70 billion worth 52 00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:34,400 of Bitcoin on their balance sheet with over a 50% profit. 53 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:36,880 Nonetheless, this is a massive milestone. 54 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,440 And why is this such a big deal? Well, we can hear about it from 55 00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:42,920 MicroStrategy CEO Fong Lee himself in a conversation that 56 00:02:42,920 --> 00:02:45,080 he had with Natalie Brunel a few months ago. 57 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,440 Are these instruments going to get rated by the credit rating 58 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:51,200 agencies and is that important? It is important because there 59 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:55,000 are, there are large pools of institutional capital, insurance 60 00:02:55,000 --> 00:03:01,920 funds, pension funds, etcetera, who are required to invest in 61 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:07,160 their, their bigger pools of capital into rated securities, 62 00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:09,000 right? And so they, they, they can take 63 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,400 a small pool capital like 5% and put it into underrated security 64 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,640 and accounts against them in some ways their balance sheet, 65 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,960 but they're big pool is capital required rating. 66 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,240 They for the most part, would love to have the types of 67 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:28,080 returns that are fixed income securities provide, but to do 68 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,200 so, they need to investment rated security, some cases 69 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:35,080 investment grade, some cases junk, some cases in between, 70 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,320 right. And so we're working through a 71 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,800 process with with a big agencies to get rated. 72 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:42,560 I think the agencies are interested in it. 73 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,840 You know, they move a little slow, they move a little slow 74 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,600 and they don't know what to compare it to, but they're doing 75 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:51,080 their work. They're smart folks at these 76 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,520 agencies who are going through the process and doing the work. 77 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:58,880 And and I think you know, step one is to get a rating and Step 78 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:03,320 2 at some future point in time is to improve that rating by 79 00:04:03,320 --> 00:04:09,960 proving one, how Bitcoin can be very good collateral and two, 80 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:14,160 showing our instruments over time performing and paying out 81 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:16,680 right. And so we're like what we did in 82 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:21,000 2020 would Bitcoin on a balance sheet of a public company. 83 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:25,560 We're doing that now really this year, a Bitcoin and preferred 84 00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,280 instruments and getting them rated. 85 00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,840 Step one, check they got a credit rating. 86 00:04:29,840 --> 00:04:33,920 Step 2, prove that Bitcoin is pristine collateral and Step 3, 87 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,600 now MicroStrategy has to step up and perform. 88 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,320 They have to make do and pay out on their preferred credit 89 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,480 instruments that they put on into the market over the past 90 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:43,520 several months. They're paving the way for a 91 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,800 whole new path for institutions to adopt Bitcoin just like they 92 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:49,360 did in 2020. And because of that, ripple 93 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:50,640 effects have gone across the globe. 94 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,800 So much so that people like Larry Fink are now talking about 95 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,840 Bitcoin in the roundtables of the wealthiest people in the 96 00:04:56,840 --> 00:05:00,120 world here. If you, if you believe that 97 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:04,920 countries are going to continue to debase their currency, If you 98 00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,920 believe that there's going to be global rise of insecurity, 99 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:16,040 owning crypto assets or gold are assets of fear. 100 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,800 You own these assets because you're frightened of the 101 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:23,720 debasement of your, your assets. You're, you're worried about 102 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:26,720 your financial security, you're worried about your physical 103 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:30,680 security. And, and, and between crypto 104 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:34,560 assets and gold they're put in, they believe, you know, there's 105 00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:38,280 a strong belief that is a good hedge against optimism. 106 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,120 The same man who called Bitcoin a scam is not pitching it to 107 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,560 heads of state. When Fink blesses Bitcoin and 108 00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:47,920 crypto at large, it's regulation ready. 109 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,880 And just like Larry Fink, Wall Street went from mocking Bitcoin 110 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:53,680 to monetizing it. First they laugh at you, then 111 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,520 they copy you. But here's the interesting thing 112 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:57,560 that he said. If you believe that countries 113 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,960 will continue to debase their currency, then gold and crypto 114 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,560 are a good investment. They're a hedge against 115 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,680 optimism. We're clearly central banks 116 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,600 across the globe are betting that countries will continue to 117 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:13,280 debase their dollar, so much so that gold holdings from central 118 00:06:13,280 --> 00:06:16,400 bankers are about to cross their dollar reserve holdings. 119 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:20,400 SP Global said that Bitcoin is a material weakness on strategies 120 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,280 balance sheet, but that's actually dollars. 121 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,200 Dollars are the weakness and the wealthiest people in the world 122 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,360 understand this. And Eric Trump gives us a 123 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,280 preview into exactly what they're thinking and how the 124 00:06:30,280 --> 00:06:33,520 tide is shifted from Bitcoin being a risk asset to an asset 125 00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:37,040 that the insiders just buy. Insiders like sovereign wealth 126 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,120 funds and nations. Why should government be buying 127 00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:41,760 Bitcoin? Because it's the single greatest 128 00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:45,200 performing asset over the last decade, increasing in value 70% 129 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,960 a year, year over year, every year, like Germany a couple 130 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:50,000 years ago. There's a great article, you'd 131 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:51,920 probably, you might know the exact numbers, but Germany had 132 00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,320 like 30,000 Bitcoin or something along those lines. 133 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:55,480 And they, they sold it right away. 134 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,440 They monetized it into, you know, their currency and, and it 135 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:01,000 was like the worst investment ever made by a government. 136 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,880 And, and by the way, that's a pretty damn low bar, as you 137 00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:05,680 know, right? The government should definitely 138 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,920 have have certain crypto assets on their, on their balance 139 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,320 sheet, mainly, mainly Bitcoin and actually the United States 140 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,520 government does, right. You have a lot of forfeitures 141 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:17,320 and, and, and they've taken a, a great stance saying that we're 142 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:19,520 not selling any of it. You have a lot of countries 143 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,280 around the world that are actively buying. 144 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,880 If you go to, you know, the UAE, if you, if you go to a lot of 145 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,520 countries, they are actively putting that in their 146 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:28,200 treasuries. And you look at the Fortune 500 147 00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:29,920 companies, they are actively hoarding Bitcoin. 148 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:32,880 The biggest families, the biggest companies, you know, 149 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:36,000 countries, sovereign wealth funds and individuals are all 150 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:38,000 hoarding Bitcoin, right? It's, it's why it's been as 151 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,400 explosive as it is. And it's funny, people are like, 152 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:41,800 oh, well, Bitcoins down by 3% now. 153 00:07:41,800 --> 00:07:45,520 It's like this time last year Bitcoin was at like 55,000 or 154 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:49,560 60,000 roughly. It's had unbelievable explosive 155 00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,280 growth. Germany selling Bitcoin was a 156 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,080 single worst decision that a country's probably ever made. 157 00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:57,560 Their position of 50,000 Bitcoin that they sold around 60K per 158 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,600 Bitcoin, well, it's cost them about 3 1/2 billion dollars. 159 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:04,120 And like the German government, people that continue to play old 160 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,160 games, well, they get old prizes. 161 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,360 The strategies of the world are going to be the new leaders. 162 00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,840 Listen to Andrew Hahn speak about the fact that the SP 500 163 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:16,040 is going to look completely different in 20-30 years than it 164 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,400 does today, and it's going to to be led by the companies that 165 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,360 adopted Bitcoin strategy now. I think that we're going to see 166 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:28,800 a big rotation in terms of the the, the household names of 167 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:33,000 corporate finance over the course of the next probably 15 168 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:38,280 to 30 years. And the only companies in the 169 00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:46,080 S&P 500 that will stay in the S&P 530 years from now are going 170 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:50,360 to be those companies which over the course of the next 5 to 10 171 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:54,200 years add Bitcoin to their balance sheet and embrace 172 00:08:54,200 --> 00:08:57,280 digital capital. The ones that fail to make this 173 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,840 transition are going to fall out of the echelon where they've 174 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,640 become very accustomed. The ones that do make the 175 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:08,760 transition will be able to take advantage of all of their market 176 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,560 position, their manufacturing facilities, their product 177 00:09:11,560 --> 00:09:13,720 offerings, their research and development and grow them 178 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,240 stronger. And many new companies will 179 00:09:17,240 --> 00:09:22,000 enter into those ranks, and they'll become tomorrow's 180 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:25,280 household names. More capital, more companies, 181 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,680 more countries are flowing into Bitcoin, which is de risking the 182 00:09:28,680 --> 00:09:30,880 asset at large. And it's also assigning a 183 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,160 premium to the companies in countries and people that have 184 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,680 gotten in first and have started to accumulate major positions. 185 00:09:37,680 --> 00:09:40,680 And that's going to make it pristine collateral, an asset 186 00:09:40,680 --> 00:09:43,240 that's held by more and more people when the volatility 187 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,120 decreases and it's not sold as often. 188 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:47,800 Russell Okung has a great perspective on this. 189 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,320 He tweeted the other day there's never been a better time to be a 190 00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:53,840 banker because when they write loans against Bitcoin or against 191 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:57,000 Bitcoin as the collateral, you can write longer loans and watch 192 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,360 the risk shrink. You don't need a central bank to 193 00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:03,120 set the rates of what you will apply to the loan itself. 194 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,480 And it's because the asset itself, Bitcoin, ensures the 195 00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:08,600 credit. Bitcoin is restoring honest 196 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:11,840 banking and it's restoring a free market capitalistic system 197 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,120 that isn't based upon trust me bro. 198 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,560 And that's exactly why we have backed Lenin, who's been the 199 00:10:17,560 --> 00:10:20,040 leaders in this revolution in terms of Bitcoin. 200 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,520 Since 2018. They've issued over $9 billion 201 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,640 worth of loans to 10s of thousands of customers all 202 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,160 across the globe. And they just published their 203 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:29,680 proof of reserves. It's their 10th and it just 204 00:10:29,680 --> 00:10:32,280 dropped the longest running for any digital lender. 205 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,200 They have over $836 million worth of loans with an you get a 206 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:41,600 42.68 loan to value and it's 100% collateralized, meaning 207 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,520 that your Bitcoin is where they say it is and it's actually 208 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:48,160 healthier than the 50% loan to value, which means if you want a 209 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,520 $1000 Fiat loan, which gets into your account in less than six 210 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:54,360 hours, well, you post $2000 of Bitcoin collateral. 211 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,640 There's no credit checks and the process takes just a few minutes 212 00:10:57,680 --> 00:11:01,000 go to learn dot letting dot AO slash simply to get started with 213 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,120 the most pristine collateral that even Wall Street is 214 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:04,880 adopting.

Schedule a 330 minute 225 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,160 consultation at the bitcoinway.com/simply Bitcoin. 226 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,400 Sometimes we don't give people their flowers until they're 227 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,480 gone. And although I don't own any 228 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:43,040 Bitcoin, treasury company stocks or shares, I have to give credit 229 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,520 for Michael Saylor for single handedly educating and blazing a 230 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,040 trail where no one else would go. 231 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,440 What he's done has been nothing short of extraordinary. 232 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,200 I do believe that he will go down as one of the greats in 233 00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:57,040 corporate history. I mean, Michael Saylor has been 234 00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:01,600 an incredible force over the course of the last five years. 235 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:08,680 And I think that his work at MicroStrategy now strategy will 236 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:14,720 be right up there with the the greats of corporate history, you 237 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:18,640 know, John Rockefeller and Du Pont and Steve Jobs. 238 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:20,160 I mean, he's going to be right up there. 239 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,760 When I listen to this clip from Jack, I think about the ripple 240 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:25,240 effects that the impact that people like him and Michael 241 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,360 Saylor are having on the world. What a single person can do to 242 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,000 spread the message of hope to people through their media 243 00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:33,640 channels, through their influence, and help people to 244 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,160 understand that there is a better way for us to store our 245 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,280 time in our energy and a better reason and purpose for why we 246 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,120 should do that. Do you understand the concept of 247 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:48,200 time and energy and contributions to society Then a 248 00:12:48,560 --> 00:12:54,320 fancy car isn't ever worth the Bitcoin that I've worked to 249 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:58,520 acquire. And so I only trade in exchange 250 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:03,000 my Bitcoin for experiences for people I love, to be honest. 251 00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,360 I mean, how? How beautiful is it? 252 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,800 How beautiful of an idea, I guess is it that, you know, we 253 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:11,800 can make the world a better place for the people that we 254 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,600 care about the most? And so Bitcoin taught me that. 255 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,880 It really lowered my time preference and taught me the 256 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,400 value of things. I think it's it's really 257 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,320 impossible to value things if there's an infinite amount of 258 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,920 dollars. I like to draw this similarity 259 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,840 to the promise of death. This is going to get potentially 260 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,480 a little weird or dark, but you know, it's the promise of we 261 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:33,960 invite. That I invite that. 262 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,360 It's, it's the promise of death that allows us to value our 263 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:40,000 life. If I was never going to die and 264 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:44,680 I knew that then I'd go to the gym in 1000 years, I'd think to 265 00:13:44,680 --> 00:13:48,000 get married in 10,000 years. I would never care to value 266 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,200 today. And that's very similar to the 267 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,400 dollar. If there's infinite amounts of 268 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,200 dollars and we're going to roll this debt over forever, then how 269 00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:58,560 do I value my paycheck right now? 270 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:03,480 And so I think what death means to life, Bitcoin means to money 271 00:14:03,480 --> 00:14:06,400 and to value. So Bitcoin gave me that finite 272 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:09,720 promise that allows me to value the time and energy that I spent 273 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,680 right now. And it's not worth expending A 274 00:14:12,680 --> 00:14:15,560 tremendous amount of my time and energy on a yellow car that goes 275 00:14:15,560 --> 00:14:18,560 really fast. In the same way that knowing 276 00:14:18,560 --> 00:14:22,560 that I'm going to die, it's, it's not, it's not worth ever 277 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:27,440 wasting a day, a week, a year. We have to understand that the 278 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:29,640 reason that we want to preserve our energy is that we're all 279 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:33,000 humans, we're fragile and we could die any day at any moment. 280 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,400 And it's 100% guarantee that we will die. 281 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,240 It's a mathematical certainty like bitcoins code. 282 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,360 And so the message is like Michael Saylor, get up and do 283 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:43,000 something. Be productive with your life. 284 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:45,240 Go build something. Go be part of something in the 285 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:47,440 future. Make your days count. 286 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,360 Let's live our lives in light of a bigger mission and a bigger 287 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:52,080 purpose. And that's what I want to call 288 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,880 you to do today in light of this monumental announcement from 289 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:57,680 Michael Saylor and strategy becoming the first credit rated 290 00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,000 Bitcoin treasury company. It's a testament to the impact 291 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,840 that a single person can have on an entire industry in the world. 292 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:08,000 Go make your mark on the world. Leave in a better place than you 293 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:09,880 found it because you will die one day. 294 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,160 What are you storing your time and your energy and your wealth 295 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,080 into?
