1
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,680
It's all going to zero against 
Bitcoin. 

2
00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:17,200
It's going up forever. 
You're against Bitcoin. 

3
00:00:17,240 --> 00:00:25,520
You're against freedom. 
Good morning everybody. 

4
00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:29,920
Welcome to Simply Bitcoin, the 
number one daily live Bitcoin 

5
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:31,960
show on YouTube, Twitter and 
Rumble. 

6
00:00:32,119 --> 00:00:34,280
We cover breaking news, culture 
and mimetic warfare. 

7
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:36,480
We bring on bitcoins from all 
around the world, from the 

8
00:00:36,480 --> 00:00:40,480
biggest names to the everyday 
bitcoiner, and we will be your 

9
00:00:40,480 --> 00:00:42,920
guide through the separation of 
money and state. 

10
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:45,720
What a crazy crazy day we had 
yesterday. 

11
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:48,520
I I am personally, in my 
opinion, I think we had some 

12
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:50,920
pivotal moments in the 
separation of money and state 

13
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:53,360
that happened yesterday. 
First of all, as you guys can 

14
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,120
tell from the title, Naive 
Bukele went to CPAC, the 

15
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:01,000
Conservative Political Action 
Conference and warned the world 

16
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:05,080
and of course conservatives and 
Americans about fighting for 

17
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,280
freedom naming names I I highly 
recommend you guys watch the 

18
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,840
whole video. 
But especially important for us 

19
00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:14,560
the disastrous problems of money
printing and its effects on the 

20
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:16,600
world at large. 
But of course you guys as 

21
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:20,680
Americans and all of us freedom 
minded people, a conversation 

22
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,960
we've been having here on simply
Bitcoin, like literally every 

23
00:01:22,960 --> 00:01:25,480
single day. 
That money printing is what's 

24
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,440
destroying the world and it's 
very obvious to everyone. 

25
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:30,960
I say it all the time, most 
people know the problem, but 

26
00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:33,480
very few people know the 
solutions. 

27
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,600
The solutions are not talked 
about enough. 

28
00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,320
And of course we think it starts
with simply Bitcoin. 

29
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:43,400
And then on the flip side, I 
guess guys, this this might be a

30
00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:46,360
little politically change show 
today. 

31
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,480
There is a theme here. 
But Trump was asked at a town 

32
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,600
hall meeting what his thoughts 
were on Bitcoin, and though he 

33
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:55,840
didn't embrace Bitcoin, he 
didn't necessarily say anything 

34
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,680
bad about Bitcoin. 
And and before you guys would be

35
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,520
like simply Bitcoin, a bunch of 
Trumpers, we're just 

36
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,360
acknowledging what's going on in
the world. 

37
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,720
Again, this is another theme 
we've been talking about 

38
00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:10,400
constantly on simply Bitcoin. 
And it is Bitcoin saturating 

39
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:14,640
popular culture and becoming a 
defining conversation in all 

40
00:02:14,640 --> 00:02:18,280
political It's not left versus 
right, it is orange versus 

41
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:23,200
green. 
And man, you know Trump is a 

42
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,800
huge dollar maxi. 
But I think there is some wiggle

43
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:31,800
room here where where he could 
potentially embrace Bitcoin. 

44
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,400
And before again, you guys all 
lose your mind and go full Trump

45
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,640
Derangement Syndrome on me, 
guys, you know, love him or hate

46
00:02:38,640 --> 00:02:41,480
him. 
The guy's hilarious and he has 

47
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:43,520
power. 
People listen to him. 

48
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:47,840
He's influential. 
And man, if he does embrace 

49
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,720
Bitcoin, on the one hand, we 
will see people follow him, you 

50
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,940
know, follow him to anywhere, 
the promised land, quote, UN 

51
00:02:54,940 --> 00:02:57,560
quote, as people say, and then 
we'll see the Trump Derangement 

52
00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:02,040
Syndrome on the other side and 
that will go directly to the 

53
00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,760
Bitcoin Derangement Syndrome. 
So man, we're in some 

54
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,720
interesting times here as 
Bitcoiners. 

55
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,360
It's only what the second month 
we're about to be. 

56
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,200
In the third month of the year, 
I think things are going to 

57
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:15,640
start heating up for us in in 
Bitcoin land, but rather in the 

58
00:03:15,640 --> 00:03:18,280
world at large. 
And of course, as we say all the

59
00:03:18,280 --> 00:03:20,720
time, actually, I can just pull 
it up on the sound board. 

60
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:25,760
Everyone will have to have a 
Bitcoin point of view. 

61
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,920
It's only a matter of time until
that conversation is happening 

62
00:03:28,920 --> 00:03:31,120
everywhere. 
Anyways, I'm not alone. 

63
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,880
I'm here with Chris Alamo, 
What's it? 

64
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:37,960
Programming director at Swan 
because hey guys, send some love

65
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:40,800
and thoughts and prayers. 
And Nico, a new bitcoiner was 

66
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,680
just born. 
A new member of the Simply 

67
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,880
Bitcoin family was just born. 
So I got the news this morning. 

68
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,960
Nico and Sophie have delivered a
beautiful baby girl. 

69
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,360
So send them your love guys. 
But in the meantime, the show 

70
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,560
goes on and we got Chris Alamo. 
How you doing today, bro? 

71
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:58,280
Good to have you back. 
Doing well. 

72
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,560
Sending my love to Sophie, Nico 
and the new baby girl. 

73
00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:04,160
New bitcoiner is born. 
You know, a big number of 

74
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,800
bitcoiners go up one way or the 
other through procreation or 

75
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,360
conversion. 
Dude, propagate the memes. 

76
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,080
You got to propagate the memes. 
And the best way to do it is by 

77
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:14,840
creating more bitcoiners. 
So you know, I still got a long 

78
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,000
ways ahead before I do that one,
but shouts out the Nico and 

79
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:18,920
Sophie. 
Anyways, we're not alone here 

80
00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,760
guys. 
We have, I would consider a good

81
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:23,920
friend. 
We have Ben Jessman, AKA the 

82
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,760
Bitcoin wine guy, AKA a Bitcoin 
entrepreneur. 

83
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:31,200
He creates the wine Peony lane. 
Good to have you bro. 

84
00:04:31,280 --> 00:04:35,480
Actually also a very strong 
memer in his own right, creating

85
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,320
some very good memes. 
So how you doing bro? 

86
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,040
I'm excited for this 
conversation. 

87
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,320
It'll be a little less wine 
focused and a little more 

88
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:48,200
entrepreneurial focus. 
So yeah, man, how you doing? 

89
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:51,840
OK, Someone's telling me my my 
mic's messed up, but here we go,

90
00:04:51,840 --> 00:04:54,400
here we go. 
What a morning. 

91
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:55,520
What a morning. 
How you doing, Ben? 

92
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:58,000
I'm so good. 
Thank you for having me here. 

93
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,120
It feels great to be welcomed 
with arms wide open and. 

94
00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:02,880
And look at this back. 
Look at that. 

95
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:04,200
Beautiful day today with you 
guys. 

96
00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:05,760
Yeah. 
The best background. 

97
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,040
Filling in the wine cave. 
Let's go. 

98
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:09,560
All real. 
All right. 

99
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:10,840
Well, we got a lot to talk 
about. 

100
00:05:10,840 --> 00:05:14,120
Let's just get right into it. 
Got a big day coming. 

101
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,880
The Bitcoin numbers. 
Is your Bitcoin in cold storage 

102
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,880
really secure? 
Is your seed phrase really 

103
00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:24,440
secure? 
Stamp seeds? 

104
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,120
Do it yourself. 
Kit has everything you need to 

105
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:31,520
hammer your seed words into 
commercial grade titanium plates

106
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,720
instead of just writing them on 
paper. 

107
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,200
Don't store your generational 
wealth on paper. 

108
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,160
Papers prone to water damage, 
fire damage. 

109
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,560
You want to put your 
generational wealth on one of 

110
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,680
the strongest metals on planet 
earth, Titanium. 

111
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,880
Your words are actually stamped 
into this metal plate with this 

112
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:52,280
hammer and these letter stamps. 
And once your words are in, they

113
00:05:52,280 --> 00:05:55,200
aren't going anywhere. 
No risk of the plate breaking 

114
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,600
apart and pieces falling 
everywhere. 

115
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,040
Titanium stamp seeds will 
survive nearly triple the heat 

116
00:06:01,040 --> 00:06:03,520
produced by a house fire. 
They're also crush proof, 

117
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:06,200
waterproof, non corrosive, and 
time proof. 

118
00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,880
All things that paper is not 
allowing you to huddle your 

119
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,880
Bitcoin with Peace of Mind for 
the long haul. 

120
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:17,200
Stamp your seed on stamp seed. 
All right guys, before we go on,

121
00:06:17,880 --> 00:06:21,560
make sure you go check out 
bitcoinwell.com, a self custody 

122
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,960
by default Bitcoin platform on a
mission to enable independence, 

123
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,440
they just finally released their
platform to the US. 

124
00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:34,640
And of course guys, they want 
your guys's feedback, so go use 

125
00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:39,120
the the platform. 
Adam's an OG, he's a savage. 

126
00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:43,320
He wants the savage feedback and
he said be as rude as possible. 

127
00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,680
And of course there is the 
Bitcoin jackpot contest 

128
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,040
happening right now, so go sign 
up. 

129
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:53,160
If you sign up by next week you 
will be in the running to get a 

130
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,120
foundation or passport by 
foundation and of course some 

131
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:57,400
other goodies. 
Anyways, let's get into the 

132
00:06:57,400 --> 00:06:59,200
numbers guys. 
We're over here on Clark Moody's

133
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,680
dashboard and of course the 
block height. 

134
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,600
The number that matters the most
in my opinion is TikTok Next 

135
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:06,320
block. 
Bitcoin is working exactly as 

136
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:10,920
designed and we're at block 
height of 831,712. 

137
00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:15,800
The Bitcoin price is currently 
at 51,000 and $40, which means 

138
00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:20,800
the stats per dollar is 1960. 
The total percentage of Bitcoin 

139
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,480
that will ever be issued is 
93.5. 

140
00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,840
Wait 93.50%? 
The market cap of Bitcoin is 

141
00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,560
teetering at $1 trillion. 
The realized monetary inflation 

142
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,840
taking Fiat currencies to 
schools at 1.74% and the Bitcoin

143
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,800
versus gold market cap, we're 
inching towards that 10% of the 

144
00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,360
gold market cap. 
We're at 7.26%. 

145
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,600
The total lightning capacity is 
currently at 4000. 

146
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:50,360
Wait, public lightning capacity 
4707.78 BTC and the hash rate 

147
00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,520
the last 90 days it's absolutely
going. 

148
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:56,400
Nuclear numbers going up on hash
rate we are currently at well 

149
00:07:56,400 --> 00:08:01,360
roughly at estimated that 527.1 
XA hashes depending fees in the 

150
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,960
mempools right now. 
Or at least the one Clark 

151
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:11,720
Moody's hooked up to a 7.07 BTC 
and the blocks to having is 8288

152
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:16,080
with an estimated date of April 
19th 2024. 

153
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:19,080
So hopefully we can slow that 
down and get get the meme 

154
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,280
number. 
Anyways, of course we do have a 

155
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,760
Bitcoin ETF update, and I I 
don't. 

156
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:28,000
I'm not going to use the Bitcoin
treasuries.net site today 

157
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:32,120
because our team dropped a solid
meme and it it really just goes 

158
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:36,640
to show how much Bitcoin these 
ETFs are scooping up. 

159
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:39,120
And there's what, 12 of them? 
And I'm only going to touch on 

160
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,520
2, The biggest one. 
So BlackRock and Fidelity now 

161
00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:49,840
own a combined 218,594 Bitcoin 
worth $11.1 billion for the 

162
00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:52,160
Bitcoin ETS. 
Guys, if you've been following 

163
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,400
along in the last few weeks when
we've been covering this, you 

164
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:57,280
know the ET FS only a month old.
They're scooping up like 

165
00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:01,480
thousands of Bitcoin a day. 
So you know what we think here, 

166
00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,520
it's only a matter of time until
number goes up. 

167
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:06,040
All right. 
Anyways, let's get into the 

168
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:09,120
numbers for today. 
And of course, this is the Trump

169
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:10,640
video that went around 
yesterday. 

170
00:09:10,960 --> 00:09:14,640
And again, guys, before you guys
all say we're Trumpies or Trump 

171
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,360
bites or whatever the meme is 
for Trump, before you say we're 

172
00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,600
MAGA country or whatever, we 
like to separate the 

173
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:22,640
conversation. 
It's not left versus right, it 

174
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:26,440
is Bitcoin versus Fiat money. 
It is orange versus green. 

175
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,920
But it's becoming very obvious 
to us, Bitcoin, especially since

176
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,280
we're in the front line, that 
Bitcoin is becoming a defining 

177
00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,680
conversation. 
And as you can see here from 

178
00:09:36,680 --> 00:09:39,360
this Bitcoin mag tweet shouts 
out to our boy Nick Camp mine 

179
00:09:39,360 --> 00:09:42,000
over there at Bitcoin Mag and 
the whole Bitcoin mag news team 

180
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:46,240
Donald Trump says, quote, many 
people are embracing Bitcoin and

181
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,280
he's seeing more and more people
wanting to pay in Bitcoin. 

182
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:53,440
So before we get into this 
video, Trump is a Fiat maxi. 

183
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,120
I think we can all agree that 
Trump's a Fiat maxi. 

184
00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,480
It is what it is. 
But I want you guys to notice 

185
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:03,240
what he's saying. 
When he's talking about dollars,

186
00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,600
he's saying I like one powerful 
thing. 

187
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,680
It is dollars. 
We all know that dollars rule 

188
00:10:08,680 --> 00:10:10,840
the world right now. 
You know, we get trolled in the 

189
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:14,080
chat all the time, every single 
day saying like, oh, you don't 

190
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,560
care about the price, but you 
price Bitcoin in dollars. 

191
00:10:16,560 --> 00:10:20,000
Like, yeah guys, dollars is the 
world reserve currency right 

192
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:21,360
now. 
It's a unit of account for 

193
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:25,320
basically the whole world, but 
we know as Bitcoiners that 

194
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,240
Bitcoin is much more powerful 
than the dollar. 

195
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:33,040
Bitcoin is way better in terms 
of tech, money, technology than 

196
00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:35,000
the dollar. 
So I think it's only a matter of

197
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:38,840
time until everyone embraces 
Bitcoin whether you like them or

198
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:40,960
not. 
And we all know that Vivek has 

199
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:44,080
been in Trump's ears and that's 
probably why he's coming out as 

200
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,880
anti CBDC's. 
Well, I think it's only a matter

201
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:50,200
of time until he embraces 
Bitcoin and literally breaks the

202
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,080
Internet when he does. 
Anyways, let's listen to this 

203
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,800
clip that made the rounds on 
Twitter and then we'll talk 

204
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:58,160
about it. 
China obviously has its own push

205
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:02,520
in the Chinese digital currency.
But isn't the next logical step 

206
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:05,480
for you to embrace Bitcoin? 
Because Bitcoin obviously is 

207
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,920
decentralized, the government 
can't get its hands on it. 

208
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,520
What about Bitcoin? 
All the young people, including 

209
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,720
African Americans, who are, are 
very interested. 

210
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,080
Well, a lot of people are doing 
it. 

211
00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:16,960
I always liked one currency. 
I I call it a currency. 

212
00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,600
I like the dollar, but a lot of 
people are doing it. 

213
00:11:19,640 --> 00:11:23,080
And frankly, it's it's taken a 
life of its own. 

214
00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,600
You probably have to do some 
regulation, as you know, but 

215
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,200
many people are embracing it. 
And more and more I'm seeing 

216
00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,400
people wanting to pay Bitcoin 
and you're seeing something 

217
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,160
that's interesting. 
So I can live with it one way or

218
00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,080
the other. 
I've always liked one really 

219
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,000
powerful thing, and that's 
called the dollar. 

220
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,640
I think that I think there's 
some points there, there's some,

221
00:11:44,680 --> 00:11:47,360
there's some few points in there
that that Trump's talking about.

222
00:11:47,680 --> 00:11:50,760
Of course he loves the dollar. 
He's a dollar Maxi. 

223
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:52,960
He loves the one powerful thing,
the dollar. 

224
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,080
But let's just kind of break it 
down a little bit, you know, 

225
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,880
First off, he acknowledged that 
Bitcoin is saturated in popular 

226
00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:02,240
culture, that people are using 
it, that it's becoming a 

227
00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,480
defining conversation that 
people are asking to pay in 

228
00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,120
Bitcoin for. 
Probably his merch. 

229
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:09,040
I know you just dropped like a 
sneaker or something. 

230
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,320
So I think this is kind of part 
of the things that we all talk 

231
00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:16,480
about as Bitcoin is is like ask 
the merchants to accept Bitcoin.

232
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:20,240
And we're seeing constantly and 
I think we are highly 

233
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,800
underestimating the impact of 
Bitcoin saturating popular 

234
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:25,720
culture in this year moving 
forward. 

235
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,120
But Trump said himself, I like 
one powerful thing and it's a 

236
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:30,680
dollar. 
Of course he's a Fiat maxi. 

237
00:12:30,680 --> 00:12:33,640
He's, I mean I think at one time
was a billionaire. 

238
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,400
Now he just likes dollars 
because of what dollars can buy.

239
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:38,760
The purchasing power of the 
dollar. 

240
00:12:38,760 --> 00:12:41,480
Still technically the best out 
of all the other paper 

241
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,880
currencies, but it's melting ice
cubes guys. 

242
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,200
And of course the dollar is a 
world reserve currency. 

243
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:48,720
It's a unit of account of the 
world. 

244
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,240
So it's, you know, the Petro 
dollar. 

245
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:54,440
It basically controls the world 
right now, but it's a leaky 

246
00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:59,160
bucket and it loses value at a 
very least of 2% of its 

247
00:12:59,160 --> 00:13:02,240
purchasing power a year. 
And as we've been seeing and 

248
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:05,400
covering on the show, inflation 
is running rampant. the Fed is 

249
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,160
seemingly not able to control 
the dollar. 

250
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:12,640
It seems like the dollar is 
losing its position in the 

251
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:17,400
world's losing that power and we
think that Bitcoin is the thing 

252
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,400
to replace it. 
And let's just ask. 

253
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,720
Let's just ask a little little 
simple question, a little 

254
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:23,960
thought experience. 
What sounds like the stronger 

255
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,840
currency, something that is 
censorship resistant, that is 

256
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,880
hard capped, that is globally 
accepted with no middleman, 

257
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,240
quick as lightning stores your 
wealth through time and space or

258
00:13:33,240 --> 00:13:36,640
the opposite, It loses 2% at 
minimum per year. 

259
00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:41,320
It is sensible, it's literally 
infinite, and it's not accepted 

260
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:44,360
everywhere unless you know 
you're forced by some, some, 

261
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,000
some violence. 
And it can't be set lightning 

262
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:50,000
fast. 
It's physical, you know, it's 

263
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:53,080
paper, it's literally 
destructible and it doesn't 

264
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:54,240
store your wealth through time 
and space. 

265
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:56,720
Like, to me, it's a very simple 
question. 

266
00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:59,320
Of course I know my bias, it is 
Bitcoin. 

267
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:04,520
But to say the least, love Trump
or hate him, I think it's only a

268
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:06,920
matter of time until Trump 
embraces Bitcoin and he 

269
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,120
literally blows people's minds 
up. 

270
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:13,400
Because once Trump embraces 
something, he's so devices that 

271
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,920
people are going to have to talk
about it. 

272
00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:20,280
And even though Trump is 
noticing that something 

273
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:23,200
interesting is happening with 
Bitcoin and it's saturating 

274
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,880
popular culture, people are 
asking about Bitcoin, He's still

275
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,800
kind of like, yeah, you know, I 
can leave it or take it. 

276
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,920
I really don't care. 
So once he actually embraces 

277
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:35,440
Bitcoin, I think it's going to 
be very interesting and it's 

278
00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,960
really going to break the game 
theory of Bitcoin whether he 

279
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,000
gets there or not. 
You know you guys can debate it 

280
00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,760
in the chat, but I find it 
hilarious that the Trump 

281
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,720
Derangement Syndrome AKA the 
Bitcoin Derangement Syndrome 

282
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,760
that will follow. 
Oh man, it's going to be so 

283
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:53,680
beautiful to see all the Fiat 
Maxis, the anti Trumpers go out 

284
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:56,360
there and literally shoot 
themselves in the foot And as 

285
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,640
bitcoins like to say have fun 
staying poor. 

286
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,920
So hey, this is where we are in 
the story. 

287
00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:05,720
We have the biggest political 
figures being asked about 

288
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,880
Bitcoin, talking about Bitcoin 
and noticing that Bitcoin is 

289
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:10,760
slowly but surely taking over 
the world. 

290
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,800
And we're only in the second 
month of 2024. 

291
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,120
We haven't even got the last leg
of the bull run. 

292
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:18,040
Man, this year is going to get 
absolutely crazy. 

293
00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,000
It's oh, it's so awesome to be 
on the front lines and be a 

294
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:23,080
bitcoiner and just document all 
this stuff. 

295
00:15:23,320 --> 00:15:26,240
It it's coming becoming easier 
and easier every day to show up 

296
00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,560
and do a Daily News show because
it's like everyone's talking 

297
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:31,840
about Bitcoin and we're just 
getting more and more people to 

298
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,480
talk about Bitcoin. 
And on the flip side, it's 

299
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:37,320
becoming more and more obvious 
to average everyday people why 

300
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,680
they need Bitcoin. 
I I know you guys have seen the 

301
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:42,360
the clips on social media. 
You know all the Gen. 

302
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,880
ZS and millennials are all 
complaining about inflation. 

303
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,400
They're complaining about like, 
man, I can't even survive. 

304
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:50,720
I wasn't born to work two jobs. 
I don't have a social life. 

305
00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,680
Like, what is going on guys? 
It's the money. 

306
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,920
The money is breaking in real 
time and we have a solution. 

307
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,560
It is simply Bitcoin. 
Anyways, Chris, you're usually a

308
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,600
little more level headed, you 
know, a little more right side 

309
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,200
of the bell curve than I am. 
So what's your thoughts on this?

310
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,400
Well, I I think I'd say the 
dollar is the best crack house 

311
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,800
on the street. 
That's the famous line that Greg

312
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:13,720
Foss always says and I love 
using that line. 

313
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:16,640
So while Trump is advocating for
the dollar, it makes sense he's 

314
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,200
a former president, obviously 
advocating to be the president. 

315
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,160
Nowadays strong dollar, you 
know, technically means a strong

316
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,440
U.S. economy. 
We can don't have to get in the 

317
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,440
whole dynamics of you know the 
the issues that come with the 

318
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,840
strong dollar globally and 
issues for importing stuff. 

319
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,360
But that's another thing. 
This morning on Cafe Bitcoin Joe

320
00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:35,520
Carlos sorry brought up a 
Republican survey. 

321
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,560
So it was a survey. 
I know we don't always trust 

322
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:39,120
surveys fan but hear me for a 
second. 

323
00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,120
The survey was sent out to 
Republican voters talking about 

324
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:45,440
their thoughts on strengthening 
the dollar and 92% of the 

325
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,000
Republicans in that survey said 
they opted for that. 

326
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:49,920
Then they asked the next 
question about gold. 

327
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,800
Would they want the US dollar to
be backed by some type of gold 

328
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:56,720
or other precious metal. 60% of 
the people in that survey said 

329
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,440
that they would like gold to 
back the US dollar. 

330
00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,240
The obviously the mechanics of 
that's a little bit more 

331
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:01,560
difficult, but they opted for 
that. 

332
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,760
The most bullish part of the 
survey though was Republicans 

333
00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,400
that received the survey. 
They said what are their 

334
00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,359
thoughts on Bitcoin? 
Or is that something that should

335
00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:12,119
be on the Fed's balance sheet or
something like the US dollar 

336
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:15,720
being backed by Bitcoin, 40 
percent, 40%. 

337
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,520
We are very early and 40% of 
Republicans are positive or 

338
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,160
neutral to positive about 
Bitcoin being on the balance 

339
00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,480
sheet of the US government. 
So the masses are coming, people

340
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,640
are waking up and people are 
learning more and more about 

341
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:29,880
Bitcoin. 
Hopefully not. 

342
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:31,480
They're avoiding the 
cryptocurrencies at all. 

343
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,920
But it was very cool and bullish
thing on that survey. 

344
00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,720
Obviously, with 92% saying 
they'd love a stronger dollar, 

345
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,080
Trump is obviously, you know, 
kind of using that survey to his

346
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,120
advantage and saying like, Yep, 
we should have a stronger 

347
00:17:42,120 --> 00:17:43,480
dollar. 
You know, it's a good talking 

348
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,080
point. 
A lot of Republicans surveyed 

349
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:46,160
and said that they would like 
that. 

350
00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,640
With that being said, you know, 
I don't want this to become a 

351
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,960
partisan issue, obviously. 
Remember in 2022 we had Kirsten 

352
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,960
Gillibrand and Cynthia Lummus. 
They were trying to pass a 

353
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:58,200
crypto and Bitcoin bill, 
basically allowing for like 

354
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:01,400
$600.00 of spending. 
If you're below that limit, that

355
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,880
it's not taxed or they're trying
to include a lot of different 

356
00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:05,120
things. 
Ultimately it was kind of shut 

357
00:18:05,120 --> 00:18:06,800
down. 
I hope a version of that bill 

358
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:10,120
comes back to making it more tax
friendly for using Bitcoin. 

359
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:12,120
But you never want to spend your
Sats. 

360
00:18:12,120 --> 00:18:15,960
Everyone but I know Ben can 
probably talk to, he loves 

361
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:19,000
taking your Sats for his wine. 
That is something about my Sats 

362
00:18:19,120 --> 00:18:21,520
for 'cause I do like his wine. 
It's very great products. 

363
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:24,960
But I think that the point is we
need more people on both sides 

364
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:27,120
of the aisle. 
Kirsten Gillibrand is a great 

365
00:18:27,120 --> 00:18:28,600
example. 
She's a Democrat from New York, 

366
00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:31,880
where Cynthia Lummus is a 
senator from Wyoming. 

367
00:18:32,360 --> 00:18:35,680
And we want more, you know, 
across the aisle. 

368
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,280
Cooperation like this is this 
doesn't have to be political 

369
00:18:38,280 --> 00:18:39,080
issue. 
It's not. 

370
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,080
The political issue is people 
weaponizing the dollar against 

371
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:44,960
their constituents and abroad, 
and people are losing their 

372
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,360
purchasing power. 
They are hurting. 

373
00:18:47,360 --> 00:18:50,280
You know, obviously inflation 
has not been 2% as their target.

374
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,280
It's been much, much higher over
the last four years, even 

375
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,160
probably longer than that. 
But they're able to hide it 

376
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,800
through various things like 
hedonic adjustments and such. 

377
00:18:58,480 --> 00:19:00,200
With that said, don't trust 
politicians. 

378
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:03,640
Don't trust, verify, obviously, 
you know, trust. 

379
00:19:04,120 --> 00:19:05,840
Believe what they do, not what 
they say. 

380
00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,240
I think that's the best way to 
look at it. 

381
00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,360
And if these politicians did a 
little bit of research, even 

382
00:19:10,360 --> 00:19:12,480
just a tiny bit of research and 
checked out like priced in 

383
00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:14,800
Bitcoin, I know Trump is an avid
real estate guy. 

384
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,400
If you've looked at real estate 
prices priced in Bitcoin, 

385
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,920
they've collapsed. 
Meaning that the value of homes,

386
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:22,200
I've gotten cheaper and cheaper 
if you're living on a Bitcoin 

387
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:24,000
standard. 
So I'll leave you guys at that. 

388
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:27,440
You know, Stack sats. 
Stay humble, Stack sats. 

389
00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:31,720
And I'll just leave you that. 
Chris, love it, Nigel. 

390
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,000
And the chat goes, Chris 
bringing too much grown up 

391
00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,680
analysis, what's going on today.
Chris, dropping this out. 

392
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:42,360
I completely missed that survey 
in that poll and that. 

393
00:19:42,360 --> 00:19:46,280
I think that's a microcosm of 
what's going on in the site. 

394
00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:47,960
Guys. 
And again, guys, you know 

395
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,840
Bitcoin is for anyone and what I
don't care what side of the 

396
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,400
aisle you are on. 
You know, the the progressives 

397
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:57,200
usually care about like social 
problems. 

398
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,760
And personally I think Bitcoin 
can help those people. 

399
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,200
Like Bitcoin helps people get 
out of poverty. 

400
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,560
It helps people bootstrap 
themselves. 

401
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,120
It is a beneficial force for 
humanity. 

402
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,960
And on the right, you know, they
care about taxation and property

403
00:20:10,960 --> 00:20:15,000
rights and it's like Bitcoin is 
property in cyberspace encrypted

404
00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,880
by the cyber Hornets or 
whatever, Sailor says. 

405
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:20,360
It's like. 
Bitcoin and the dollar, which we

406
00:20:20,360 --> 00:20:23,720
will see with the Buchelli clip 
following it, has been 

407
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,760
weaponized. 
And Bitcoin basically breaks 

408
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:28,320
that control. 
And all you have to do is just 

409
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:31,240
saving Bitcoin, live your life, 
provide value to your fellow 

410
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,840
man, literally be a good human 
and saving Bitcoin and everyone 

411
00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:37,080
wins here. 
So you know, let's try not to 

412
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:39,560
get too divisive here. 
I know, I know, Trump's such a 

413
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,440
polarizing figure. 
But our job here is to cover 

414
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:46,040
everyone talking about Bitcoin, 
whether it's good or whether 

415
00:20:46,040 --> 00:20:48,480
it's bad, Whether we like them 
or yeah, that we don't. 

416
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,120
Everyone will be talking about 
Bitcoin anyways. 

417
00:20:51,120 --> 00:20:53,720
Ben, what's your thoughts on all
this stuff going on today? 

418
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:59,040
I was so much more interested in
the question that was asked and 

419
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:03,080
how it was phrased than Trump's 
answer, because as, excuse me, 

420
00:21:03,080 --> 00:21:05,960
the president of the United 
States, it's pretty hard to be 

421
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:07,920
like we want to go to a Bitcoin 
standard. 

422
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:09,240
That's huge upheaval in the 
world. 

423
00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:13,240
And ultimately, the better 
strategy is to just stay quiet, 

424
00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:18,280
stack stacks on the side, not 
tell anyone, and then let the 

425
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,160
global financial system meltdown
whatever, you're all set up. 

426
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,840
The way the question was asked 
was, isn't the next logical step

427
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:29,520
to go to Bitcoin and not crypto,
just specifically Bitcoin? 

428
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:33,840
It was like the way she phrased 
that just got me so fired up 

429
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:37,640
because it was so on point. 
And then she finishes the 

430
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:41,320
question with just like how 
African Americans in the United 

431
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:47,080
States really love Bitcoin and 
that kind of gets past the like 

432
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,560
just this Trump. 
Because if you go to the left 

433
00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,000
side, I mean they love identity 
politics. 

434
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:58,560
They love race based stuff and 
and helping like perceived 

435
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:05,520
victims and if their perceived 
victims are all jumping onto 

436
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,040
Bitcoin it's a little bit harder
to like shut it down as this 

437
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,400
hard right wing conspiracy. 
I mean, I think that they 

438
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:14,040
obviously they will try to do 
that because it takes power away

439
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,200
from the state, which is more 
the leftist side of the side of 

440
00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:19,960
the spectrum. 
But like, I don't really expect 

441
00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:23,040
Trump to be a super pro Bitcoin 
figure. 

442
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,160
Even the VAC in the hindsight 
backside. 

443
00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,320
Like if if he chooses for the 
VAC as a running mate, the VAC's

444
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:35,160
very pro strengthening the 
dollar and everything and it's 

445
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,680
more just don't be anti. 
And I feel like his stance since

446
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:42,280
the last time I heard him talk 
about it was has changed from 

447
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:46,800
like anti to neutral slash, not 
really still knowing anything 

448
00:22:46,800 --> 00:22:50,200
about it. 
So we'll see what happens. 

449
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:52,560
But it was pretty cool to see 
him talking about that. 

450
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:55,760
And then they zoom in on the 
crowd and it's just a bunch of 

451
00:22:55,760 --> 00:23:00,120
like old Republican caucus 
goers. 

452
00:23:00,120 --> 00:23:05,800
Like it was just is a really 
cool frame to have that specific

453
00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:10,080
Bitcoin question said in that 
stage with all that context 

454
00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:14,160
specifically about Bitcoin. 
No crypto conversation at all in

455
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,640
that clip. 
Love it, love it. 

456
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,360
Couldn't agree more. 
And let's not forget, I don't 

457
00:23:19,360 --> 00:23:22,400
even know how to say your name, 
but Melania Trump tweeted about 

458
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:25,000
the Genesis Block. 
Wasn't it like a few years ago? 

459
00:23:25,360 --> 00:23:28,920
So I think we can. 
And then this year, this year, 

460
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:30,600
yeah. 
And they they just dropped, 

461
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,880
like, didn't they do like a 
Trump ordinal or NFT or 

462
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:37,800
something like that? 
So at least they kind of know 

463
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,560
what their audience is doing. 
And I think it just goes to show

464
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,280
that Bitcoin is highly 
saturating the culture. 

465
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:47,360
And then someone said it in the 
chat, you know, that we should, 

466
00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,720
you know, like man up and and 
embrace Trump or whatever. 

467
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,840
It's like, guys, I literally 
don't like any politician at 

468
00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,120
all. 
I am so anti politics. 

469
00:23:57,120 --> 00:24:01,200
It's absolutely hilarious. 
But Bitcoin is highly political 

470
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,400
because it is a political and 
the main political tool going on

471
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:07,440
in the world is the dollar. 
So hey, if they're embracing 

472
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:10,080
Bitcoin, I'm not one of these 
like 1 issue voter guys. 

473
00:24:10,360 --> 00:24:12,640
I fundamentally like. 
I like people talking about 

474
00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:15,880
Bitcoin, but also like I voted 
once and I don't know if I'm 

475
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:18,520
going to vote again. 
Full disclosure, I feel like I 

476
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:21,280
got scammed. 
But anyways, this just goes to 

477
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,320
show that politicians are having
these conversations. 

478
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,400
Everyone's going to be having 
these conversations and now 

479
00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:30,600
everyone's going to have to have
an opinion on Bitcoin and it's 

480
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,760
just beautiful to see. 
We are moving the Overton 

481
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:35,080
window. 
It's Friday guys, so you guys 

482
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:36,560
can drink on your bingo card 
today. 

483
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,840
The Overton window is shifting 
and everyone is talking about 

484
00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,560
Bitcoin. 
So man, what a crazy, crazy 

485
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,400
world we are moving into. 
Anyways, let's get into the news

486
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:50,400
because Bukele absolutely 
destroys the dollar and the Fed 

487
00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:54,920
and really, really, I think 
shares a strong warning for the 

488
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:55,320
world. 
The. 

489
00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,760

I want to give a shout out to

00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:07,120

00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,000
All right, guys, scan the QR 
code. 

508
00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,960
Get yourself a Nokia phone. 
I'm kidding. 

509
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,200
It's a Passport by foundation. 
They're so sexy. 

510
00:26:04,360 --> 00:26:06,440
All right anyways let's get into
this clip here guys. 

511
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:12,720
Because man I I truly think this
was a historic historic speech 

512
00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:13,800
here. 
You know Bukele has been 

513
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,960
absolutely killing it in the PR 
recently. 

514
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:20,680
I don't know if you guys caught 
his acceptance speech when he 

515
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:26,040
got re elected at last week like
I I was getting the chills and 

516
00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:27,200
we don't have the whole clip 
here. 

517
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:31,440
But I highly suggest you guys go
watch the whole Bukele CPAC 

518
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:36,680
speech because he absolutely 
decimates everything he he named

519
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:38,200
names. 
He's talking talking about 

520
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:40,360
fighting for freedom. 
That is not too late. 

521
00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:44,160
But for us here at simply 
Bitcoin we always pinpoint when 

522
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,840
it comes to finances, when it 
comes to the dollar and when 

523
00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,520
people talk about the real 
problem AKA the dollar, the 

524
00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:53,120
money printing going absolutely 
nuclear. 

525
00:26:53,360 --> 00:26:56,320
You know money printer going 
Burr, we have to highlight it. 

526
00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,680
So here we go shout out to the 
Simply Bitcoin team. 

527
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,800
They go new El Salvador 
President Naive Bukele speaks at

528
00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:06,240
the 2024 C pack in the US and 
they got a quote here. 

529
00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:09,640
The real problem is that you pay
high taxes only to uphold the 

530
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,320
illusion that you are funding 
the government, which you are 

531
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,000
not. 
All right, guys, So let's watch 

532
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,040
this whole video. 
It there is there's a part after

533
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,320
this video which is basically, I
wish we added this to. 

534
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:22,600
It was basically like, there's 
still hope for you guys. 

535
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,760
And he didn't really say 
Bitcoin, but you know, he was 

536
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:27,520
going there. 
Actually, someone did yell 

537
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:28,800
Bitcoin when he's talking about 
this. 

538
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,320
And you'll hear all this, but 
there's still time for us guys. 

539
00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:33,800
And of course we say saving in 
Bitcoin. 

540
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,680
But let's get into this clip. 
For instance, the financial 

541
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:40,680
situation of the United States. 
When I talk to my conservative 

542
00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,120
friends right here, they always 
tell me that the problem is high

543
00:27:44,120 --> 00:27:49,000
taxes, that they're wrong. 
Of course, high taxes are 

544
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,360
extremely high here in the 
United States. 

545
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,560
I I give you that. 
You're right in that. 

546
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:57,320
But that's not the real problem.
The real problem is not the high

547
00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,880
taxes themselves, but the fact 
that they are not even really 

548
00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:06,160
funding the government. 
Not even those high taxes higher

549
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:07,440
than a lot of places in the 
world. 

550
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:09,960
Not even those taxes are really 
funding the government. 

551
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:12,240
So who's financing the 
government? 

552
00:28:14,360 --> 00:28:17,040
Government is financed by 
Treasury bonds. 

553
00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,560
They. 
And who buys the Treasury bonds?

554
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:26,560
Mostly the Fed. 
And how does the Fed buy them? 

555
00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:31,120
By printing money. 
But what backing does the Fed 

556
00:28:31,120 --> 00:28:33,320
have for that money being 
printed? 

557
00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:38,640
The Treasury bonds themselves. 
So basically you finance the 

558
00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:40,440
government by printing money out
of thin air. 

559
00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,800
Someone could ask. 
Someone could ask. 

560
00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:46,880
Well, so if the government can 
print the limited amounts of 

561
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:50,760
money out of thin air, why did 
they collect taxes? 

562
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:00,040
I mean, the theory will make 
sense, right? 

563
00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,600
If they can print unlimited 
amounts of money, why would they

564
00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:05,800
need taxes? 
The answer is simple, but it's 

565
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:09,720
very shocking. 
The real problem is that you pay

566
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:13,680
high taxes only to uphold the 
illusion that you're funding the

567
00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:19,920
government, which you are not. 
It's shocking that it's true. 

568
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:25,400
The government is funded by 
money printing paper backed with

569
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:30,120
paper, a bubble that will 
inevitably burst. 

570
00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,360
The situation is even worse than
it seems, because if most 

571
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,720
Americans and the rest of the 
world were to become aware of 

572
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:40,080
this virus, confidence in your 
currency will be lost. 

573
00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:43,920
The dollar will fall, and the 
Western civilization with it. 

574
00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,360
If the next President of the 
United States doesn't make the 

575
00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:53,840
necessary policies and 
structural changes, sooner or 

576
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,800
later that bubble will burst. 
Sheesh. 

577
00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,280
Absolute mic drops. 
Absolute mic drops. 

578
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:03,160
I love the guy yelling Bitcoin 
from the audience. 

579
00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:03,800
That's. 
Great. 

580
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:08,240
Yeah, exactly, exactly. 
And man, there's so much to 

581
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,880
unpack here. 
But before I do that, I really 

582
00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,840
want to highlight the article 
from Bitcoin Magazine. 

583
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,680
If you watch the show, you know,
we reference this all the time. 

584
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,880
It's called Stop Drinking, the 
Elite's kool-aid. 

585
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,360
And there's a very powerful 
quote in here. 

586
00:30:21,360 --> 00:30:25,400
And again, we, we reference this
quote almost, I don't know, 

587
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:28,200
probably once a week anyways, he
goes. 

588
00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:31,360
The interesting part is that the
first and second group exists 

589
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,000
mostly because of the 3rd, and 
he's talking about people that 

590
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:37,240
either support or are detractors
of not only Bitcoin, but of 

591
00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:39,000
freedom. 
And he says, why? 

592
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:41,400
Because the most vocal 
detractors are the ones who are 

593
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:44,640
afraid and pressuring us to 
reverse our decisions are the 

594
00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,800
world's powerful elites and the 
people who work for or benefit 

595
00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:49,400
from them. 
They used to own everything, and

596
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,840
in a way they still do. 
The media, the banks, the NGOs, 

597
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:54,280
the international organizations,
and almost all all the 

598
00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,000
governments and corporations in 
the world. 

599
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,840
And with that, of course, they 
own the armies, the loans, the 

600
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:00,680
money supply, the credit 
ratings, the narratives, the 

601
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:02,520
propaganda, the factories, the 
food supply. 

602
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,360
They control international trade
and international law. 

603
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,400
But their most powerful weapon 
is the control of, quote, truth.

604
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,160
And they're willing to fight, 
lie, smear, destroy, censor, 

605
00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:14,600
confiscate, print and do 
whatever it takes to maintain 

606
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,480
and increase their control over 
that truth and everything and 

607
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,960
everyone. 
And here he is at CPAC basically

608
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:26,480
saying what we say here on 
simply Bitcoin all the time is 

609
00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:31,080
that they have hold on I they 
have to keep printing money to 

610
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:35,160
continue the charade that the 
real Fiat, the real Ponzi is 

611
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,680
Fiat money. 
It's literally a Ponzi backed by

612
00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:40,560
papers. 
It's paper backed by paper. 

613
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:45,560
And the more they print, the 
more they debase your savings. 

614
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:48,920
The more they steal your labor, 
the more your purchasing power 

615
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,920
decreases. 
And I think the the hardest 

616
00:31:51,920 --> 00:31:56,080
hitting part about that speech 
of Bukele, he's like if the 

617
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,800
world doesn't wake up to this, 
rather if Americans don't wake 

618
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:03,360
up to this, the bubble's going 
to burst and we are seeing that 

619
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,760
bubble decline. 
We're seeing the power of the 

620
00:32:06,760 --> 00:32:09,840
dollar dwindle, whether it's 
from the BRICS nations, whether 

621
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:13,240
it's people not wanting to buy 
government treasuries Like we're

622
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:17,040
seeing in real time that the 
dollar is losing its foothold 

623
00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,120
and we think Bitcoin will be the
thing to replace it. 

624
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,720
And we constantly show you the 
debt clock. 

625
00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,440
And this is just a visual 
example of what Buchelli is 

626
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:29,240
talking about. 
Again, I'm over here at U.S. 

627
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:30,760
debt clock. 
We we bring this up all the 

628
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:32,360
time. 
Everyone knows that U.S. 

629
00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,320
National debt, it's just past 
$34 trillion. 

630
00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:40,280
And what Buchelli was saying, 
the idea that your taxes don't 

631
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:43,680
won't ever pay that debt, It's 
just the illusion of you 

632
00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,280
financing the government, but 
it's really being financed by 

633
00:32:46,280 --> 00:32:48,600
money printing. 
Well, again, just compare this. 

634
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:50,480
You know, U.S. 
National debt, $34 trillion. 

635
00:32:50,800 --> 00:32:53,600
U.S. 
Federal tax revenue is $4.6 

636
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:55,880
trillion. 
And that doesn't even account 

637
00:32:55,880 --> 00:33:00,640
for the unfunded liabilities of 
$213 trillion. 

638
00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:04,880
Like, need I say more? 
Your dollars and the taxes that 

639
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:10,120
you guys pay will never, I 
repeat will never pay off the 

640
00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:18,800
debt that the US has incurred. 
And This is why we always say 

641
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,840
fix the money, fix the world. 
It starts with the money. 

642
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:25,360
We've been covering it on this 
show very hard the last two 

643
00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:29,480
weeks that the dollar is the 
main control mechanism and now 

644
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:31,920
everyone is waking up to it. 
Now everyone is taught well not 

645
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:35,480
everyone, but a lot of people 
are talking about the dollar as 

646
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:39,760
a control mechanism and I find 
it very interesting that 

647
00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:43,280
Buchelli went to CPAC. 
It's the conservative I I forget

648
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:46,800
what it what it stands for. 
I have it over here in my notes 

649
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:51,000
for you guys, Conservative 
Political Action Conference. 

650
00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:52,920
And he's pinpointing the 
problem. 

651
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,760
It's the money guys. 
If you really care about taxes, 

652
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:59,200
if you really care about private
property, then you need to have 

653
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:01,960
a money that cannot be censored,
that cannot be stolen, that 

654
00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:05,160
cannot be debased. 
And of course that is Bitcoin. 

655
00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:08,199
So we're seeing in real time 
that the big Bitcoin signal is 

656
00:34:08,199 --> 00:34:10,080
going worldwide, it's going 
global. 

657
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:11,679
Everyone and their mother's 
going to be talking about 

658
00:34:11,679 --> 00:34:14,120
Bitcoin. 
But this is what we say here all

659
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:17,560
the time. 
If you're in the know, you know 

660
00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:20,239
the problem. 
But few people are talking about

661
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:23,520
the solution, and the solution 
is getting on the Bitcoin 

662
00:34:23,520 --> 00:34:26,600
standard on an individual level.
Whether that and then of course 

663
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:29,440
the corporate level, the nation 
state level, everyone will adopt

664
00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:34,480
Bitcoin for their own survival. 
Stop looking for someone else to

665
00:34:34,480 --> 00:34:36,120
help you. 
No one is gonna come here. 

666
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:39,159
No ones gonna be your savior. 
You need to save yourself and 

667
00:34:39,159 --> 00:34:42,480
save in Bitcoin, man. 
I'm sure we can unpack Bucheles 

668
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,040
speech 3 minutes for like an 
hour. 

669
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,320
I think he absolutely destroyed 
the dollar. 

670
00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:52,719
He destroyed the fraud that is 
the central banks and the real 

671
00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:55,040
Ponzi is the Fiat Ponzi, not 
Bitcoin. 

672
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,720
And and we're moving into the 
cycle where everyone's going to 

673
00:34:57,720 --> 00:34:59,400
be talking about Bitcoin and 
they're going to be like, oh, 

674
00:34:59,400 --> 00:35:00,960
bitcoins, A Ponzi or what was 
it? 

675
00:35:00,960 --> 00:35:03,600
Bitcoins, Tulips. 
And it's like, man, the real 

676
00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:07,000
Ponzi is Fiat money. 
It is backed by money printing. 

677
00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:10,040
It is paper backed by paper 
backed by, you know, what's 

678
00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:12,240
what's it say on the dollars? 
I haven't held a dollar in a 

679
00:35:12,240 --> 00:35:13,920
while. 
So I forget what it says. 

680
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:17,640
But backed by the full faith and
credit of the federal 

681
00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:22,760
government, what's looking like?
They are losing that legitimacy.

682
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:26,600
And This is why Bitcoin. 
This is why I I for a long time 

683
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,320
opted out of politics. 
And now I realize the power of 

684
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,360
politics. 
And so I I realized that like, 

685
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,640
hey, people talking about 
Bitcoin's a good thing. 

686
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,080
The more we spread this message,
the more people wake up, the 

687
00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:38,640
more they're able to save and 
protect themselves. 

688
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,800
We're moving into AII hate using
the phrase, but a brave new 

689
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:48,080
world, a brighter new world. 
You know, Orange World, It's so 

690
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,840
beautiful being a big corner and
just showing up and watching 

691
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:52,560
everyone else catch on to 
Bitcoin. 

692
00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,920
Anyways, let's go to Chris so he
can, you know, tone it down and 

693
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:57,680
get a little more right side of 
the bell curve here. 

694
00:35:57,680 --> 00:35:58,800
What's your thoughts on this, 
Chris? 

695
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:00,680
No, I think it was a really good
talk. 

696
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:02,440
I think Bouquet is obviously not
dumb. 

697
00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:05,240
He understands financial 
literacy. 

698
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:07,600
He understands how the whole 
system is backed. 

699
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,400
Obviously, that's why he made 
the decision that he made for El

700
00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:13,200
Salvador in 2021. 
You know, buying Bitcoin and 

701
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,400
putting it on the balance sheet 
of El Salvador and obviously 

702
00:36:16,400 --> 00:36:20,120
trying to attract entrepreneurs 
and people to El Salvador with, 

703
00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:24,080
you know, tax, tax incentives 
and and things of that nature. 

704
00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:26,840
I think one of the things that 
it was kind of missed, I mean 

705
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:30,280
he's right, but is even more 
nefarious about the high taxes 

706
00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:33,800
that we mentioned is when you 
have high taxes, it actually 

707
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:37,560
acts as a way to reduce prices. 
So it's the way that the federal

708
00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:40,840
government and the Federal 
Reserve use high taxes in order 

709
00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:43,400
to reduce inflation. 
And the way that they're doing 

710
00:36:43,400 --> 00:36:45,560
that if you're they're taking 
more of your money, that's less 

711
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,200
money that can go out into the 
economy and drive up prices 

712
00:36:48,200 --> 00:36:50,280
further. 
Imagine if all of the tax money 

713
00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:53,280
that you had, you were taxed at 
0% and you had a much larger 

714
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:55,120
salary because of the reduction 
in taxes. 

715
00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:56,800
It's a way that they can 
prevent. 

716
00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:00,360
They can prevent prices from 
running away because if they tax

717
00:37:00,720 --> 00:37:03,400
the middle and lower class, more
and more money and they creep up

718
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:06,920
and they tax the, you know, the 
Uber rich as well, you know, 

719
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:10,520
it's a way to prevent prices 
from running away. 

720
00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:12,640
So you can always keep 
increasing taxes so people have 

721
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:14,880
less money, so they can put less
money into the economy and 

722
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,000
spend. 
And that's something that is is 

723
00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:19,240
kind of even more nefarious that
if they were to just drop it to 

724
00:37:19,240 --> 00:37:21,880
zero and then just fund the 
government with money printing, 

725
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:25,360
I mean obviously we'd see even 
more runaway inflation and such.

726
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:28,320
But yeah, I I think that's even 
part of the more nefarious fact 

727
00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:30,280
of it. 
But I'd say overall great clip 

728
00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:33,080
from Bouquet, like I think the 
whole interview was like 30 

729
00:37:33,080 --> 00:37:34,120
minutes. 
Is that right it? 

730
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,640
Was like 25, I think. 
Yeah, like 24. 

731
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:38,600
Yeah, definitely something I 
need to watch the whole thing 

732
00:37:38,600 --> 00:37:39,520
of. 
But I mean, that was a great 

733
00:37:39,520 --> 00:37:41,160
three clips, that three minute 
clip there. 

734
00:37:41,720 --> 00:37:44,840
Yeah, that was, of course, as a 
Bitcoin channel, that that was 

735
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:47,160
the most defining, important 
part of that clip. 

736
00:37:47,520 --> 00:37:51,240
But the, I think the theme of 
the whole show was essentially 

737
00:37:51,240 --> 00:37:54,480
like we are all frogs boiling in
water. 

738
00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:58,280
And at a certain point, you're 
going to have to stand up and 

739
00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:00,120
fight for freedom, fight for 
what is good. 

740
00:38:00,600 --> 00:38:03,960
And you still have time to 
change the course of America 

741
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:07,280
like there's still time for us. 
But if we keep going down this 

742
00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:11,640
path, if we still, if we 
continue to believe in the 

743
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,560
corrupt politicians that they 
have your best, you know, you're

744
00:38:14,560 --> 00:38:18,160
you're, they have your best 
interest in mind, you're going 

745
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,200
to wake up in a world, what's a,
what's AI? 

746
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:25,280
Forget the founding father meme.
That's like if you are not 

747
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:28,920
vigilant, one day you will wake 
up in the world that is 

748
00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,680
completely owned by the banks 
and you will have lost the 

749
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:33,920
country that your forefathers 
have built. 

750
00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:37,120
And you know, as a first 
generation American like I, I 

751
00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,840
believe in the meme of home, of 
the brave land of the free. 

752
00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:43,800
And I I think America is still 
the best country in the world. 

753
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:48,160
And I do not want to see America
crumble because that means even 

754
00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,600
worse situations for the rest of
the world. 

755
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:52,200
Like we are the last bastion of 
freedom. 

756
00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:55,680
I'm wholly convinced of this. 
So I hope that more people wake 

757
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:57,360
up and we can actually course 
correct. 

758
00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,720
And of course, I think, you 
know, humbly and maybe naively, 

759
00:39:00,800 --> 00:39:04,080
it starts with the money you 
need to opt into Bitcoin and 

760
00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,320
protect yourself. 
Freedom, money for a freedom 

761
00:39:06,320 --> 00:39:08,000
country. 
This is the way. 

762
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:13,960
Anyways, Ben. 
It's Friday. 

763
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:17,560
People came for the memes, and 
we know that that's like the 

764
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:20,000
most effective warfare that we 
really have. 

765
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,520
And you snuck a little one in 
there that Kayleigh did with the

766
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:28,720
If they can just print unlimited
money, why are we paying taxes? 

767
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:31,920
That hits so many people. 
He paused there. 

768
00:39:31,920 --> 00:39:34,640
He took the time. 
He got everyone to like, look at

769
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,560
that. 
See the the wildness of that 

770
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:40,320
juxtaposition? 
And then he landed the plane, 

771
00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:44,080
and he tells us why those taxes 
are high, why they're there, why

772
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,840
we're getting scammed with that.
That's what gave me chills. 

773
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:50,080
Listening to that clip was how 
eloquent he was, he 

774
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:52,160
acknowledged. 
You could see he saw the guy who

775
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:54,040
yelled Bitcoin, but he kept 
going. 

776
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:57,080
He landed the plane and he hit 
it with like people with some 

777
00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,720
real knowledge after a meme that
got their mind open. 

778
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:04,200
Let's go, let's go. 
All right, everyone saying give 

779
00:40:04,200 --> 00:40:07,000
them what they want. 
Let's wait till the meme review 

780
00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:08,760
and I'll go. 
Heavy on the horn, guys. 

781
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:09,880
Okay. 
All right. 

782
00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:13,400
Anyways, guys, before we get 
into the culture and we talk to 

783
00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:16,760
our boy Ben about wine, well, 
really, being an entrepreneur, 

784
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:21,440
get yourself Bitcoin evangelism.
We need to onboard 10 million 

785
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,880
more bitcoins. 
We need to onboard the world and

786
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,360
all of us are evangelists. 
We all love Bitcoin. 

787
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:28,880
Well, give it your normie 
friends this book. 

788
00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:32,160
Give your shit coining friends 
this book and maybe they will 

789
00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:33,920
wake up to the importance of 
Bitcoin. 

790
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:37,440
As we've been covering in the 
last two segments, everyone 

791
00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:40,000
needs to understand why Bitcoin 
is so important. 

792
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:41,800
We are all evangelists in 
Bitcoin. 

793
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,840
We all love Bitcoin. 
We can't stop talking about 

794
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:46,120
Bitcoin. 
Well, here's a framework for you

795
00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,880
guys to talk to your normie 
friends, to talk to your family 

796
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,320
so that you're not just so 
unbearable. 

797
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:55,000
Go to Amazon, scan the QR code, 
get yourself Bitcoin Evangelism 

798
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:59,280
by our boy Brian de Mint today, 
and let's orange pill the world.

799
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,400
Anyways, let's get into the 
culture. 

800
00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:12,360
The Daily Culture. 
All right guys. 

801
00:41:12,360 --> 00:41:16,280
Before we do that though, shout 
out to Kaboom Racks. 

802
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:19,400
Kaboom Rack, go to 
kaboomracks.com. 

803
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:22,640
Jump in their telegram group. 
This is the best place to buy, 

804
00:41:22,640 --> 00:41:27,720
sell and host your miners. 
Also shout out to the whole team

805
00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:31,440
because in my opinion that the 
goats they will literally hand 

806
00:41:31,440 --> 00:41:32,880
hold you through the whole 
process. 

807
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,600
My boy Alex over there. 
He will literally tell you not 

808
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:38,560
to buy minors, even though it's 
his job to sell you minors. 

809
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:42,880
They they have a great great 
white glove service over there. 

810
00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:45,280
If you have questions about 
mining, if you've been thinking 

811
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:48,720
about mining, go to 
kaboomracks.com, get in touch 

812
00:41:48,720 --> 00:41:51,880
with their team, or drop in 
their telegram group and ask 

813
00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:54,960
them the questions you want to 
know about mining, whether you 

814
00:41:54,960 --> 00:41:57,640
should, whether you shouldn't, 
whether this is a good time to 

815
00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:00,840
buy a six, whether you should 
wait to buy a six, or whether S 

816
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:02,560
nines are going to be profitable
forever. 

817
00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:04,440
I think they might be 
profitable. 

818
00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:05,920
At least that's what my boy Alex
was saying. 

819
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,400
He's like, dude, S 9's going to 
be profitable forever anyways. 

820
00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:13,920
Gonna kaboom kaboomracks.com and
get yourself some a six or at 

821
00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:16,240
least start the conversation if 
you've been thinking about it. 

822
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:21,160
Anyways, before we get to just 
plugging Penny Lane. 

823
00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:25,640
Ben, how you doing bro? 
I'm, I'm super excited about 

824
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:27,680
this one actually. 
I'm going to, I'm going to dox 

825
00:42:27,680 --> 00:42:29,520
you a little bit. 
I'm going to put you on the hot 

826
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:31,400
spot. 
When I saw you in Vegas, you're 

827
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:34,960
like, dude, I'm like, yo, can we
come on simply Bitcoin. 

828
00:42:35,240 --> 00:42:36,880
Let's talk about what you're 
doing. 

829
00:42:37,080 --> 00:42:39,840
And he's like, Nah, man, like I 
got to talk about wine. 

830
00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:42,080
Like I don't want to talk about 
the wine process. 

831
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:44,000
I want to talk about being a 
bitcoiner. 

832
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:48,400
So even though you are known as 
a Bitcoin wine guy, when I we'll

833
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:51,480
talk about wine a little bit, I 
kind of want to start with the 

834
00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:55,120
ideas of being a Bitcoin 
entrepreneur and how this is 

835
00:42:55,360 --> 00:43:01,080
maybe helped you maybe how it's 
expand your your business model.

836
00:43:01,320 --> 00:43:04,800
Like wait, maybe we start back, 
how did you connect the two? 

837
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:06,720
Because this is something I talk
about with people all the time, 

838
00:43:06,720 --> 00:43:09,560
like you don't have to be a 
programmer, you don't have to be

839
00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:11,600
a developer, you don't have to 
be a miner to get involved with 

840
00:43:11,600 --> 00:43:13,880
Bitcoin. 
All you have to do is take your 

841
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:15,800
skills and add Bitcoin on top of
it. 

842
00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:18,320
And I think you're a perfect 
example of this is like, what's 

843
00:43:18,320 --> 00:43:20,640
wine got to do with Bitcoin? 
Besides the fact that all of us 

844
00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:24,120
bitcoiners like some good wine, 
But how did you connect the two 

845
00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,840
and and how did you, you know, 
wrap your head around this idea 

846
00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:31,240
of being a Bitcoin entrepreneur?
Realistically, I think it's just

847
00:43:31,360 --> 00:43:35,240
the same as everyone where you 
are doing what you're doing with

848
00:43:35,240 --> 00:43:36,840
life and then Bitcoin comes your
way. 

849
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:39,160
You you start to understand it 
and Bitcoin just seeps into 

850
00:43:39,160 --> 00:43:42,520
every part of your life. 
I didn't like I started my 

851
00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:45,520
winery a year before I started 
learning about Bitcoin and then 

852
00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:48,560
it was maybe two years of 
learning about Bitcoin before I 

853
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:54,760
realized how useful Bitcoin 
could be for taking payments, 

854
00:43:54,760 --> 00:43:58,800
for stacking, for saving, for 
kind of changing the the time 

855
00:43:58,800 --> 00:44:00,880
preference of what I have my 
value in. 

856
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:04,480
And honestly it wasn't even 
quite my idea. 

857
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:08,640
It's just like people started, I
got on Twitter to learn about 

858
00:44:08,640 --> 00:44:11,120
Bitcoin and then people started 
asking to buy my wine in Bitcoin

859
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,720
and it just became a a no 
brainer kind of self self 

860
00:44:13,720 --> 00:44:19,040
fulfilling prophecy. 
And really it's like it's been 

861
00:44:19,040 --> 00:44:21,760
such a perfect marriage because 
bitcoiners have this low time 

862
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:23,200
preference. 
They kind of understand the 

863
00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:26,640
value prop of nice wine of 
holding it, of buying wine that 

864
00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,280
doesn't make you feel bad 
afterwards because they have 

865
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:33,760
this bit of a impetus a little 
push towards like long term 

866
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:35,480
health. 
So you want to drink wine 

867
00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:41,200
without any additives. 
And additionally I have this 

868
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:45,640
army of cyber Hornets that want 
to help me win where sailor 

869
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:50,120
talks about that with as far as 
defense of the Bitcoin network 

870
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:55,520
and and changes and everything. 
But there's this such a strong 

871
00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:58,960
group of that's the wrong link 
by the way. 

872
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,760
It's Penny Lane wine.com. 
There's such a strong. 

873
00:45:02,080 --> 00:45:07,120
Hit of there's such a strong 
like push for bitcoiners to see 

874
00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:10,880
other bitcoiners succeed that 
that can propel. 

875
00:45:11,320 --> 00:45:14,520
I mean a realist any business 
into a little bit more 

876
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:19,440
stratosphere of success. 
Because we want to buy from our 

877
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:22,680
communities where like I want to
buy local 1st and then if I 

878
00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:24,400
can't buy local I live in a 
small town. 

879
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:27,640
I don't have all the options. 
I buy from a bitcoiner because I

880
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:30,840
want to support people that are 
working towards creating a 

881
00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:34,520
better world. 
And just like I am, and if you 

882
00:45:34,520 --> 00:45:36,600
create a good product, 
bitcoiners value it. 

883
00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:40,160
And there's nothing like 
receiving the value of getting 

884
00:45:40,160 --> 00:45:44,480
paid in Bitcoin like the first 
time that happened and every 

885
00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:46,880
time since then it feels 
amazing. 

886
00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:49,880
It's so much better than getting
paid in dollars because you 

887
00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:55,160
really feel like that person 
extra values your product and 

888
00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:58,240
there's tools now where with 
strike you can send dollars. 

889
00:45:58,240 --> 00:46:00,920
And I received Bitcoin and I 
think that's kind of the the 

890
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,600
future where this is all going, 
especially because I see a bit 

891
00:46:04,600 --> 00:46:08,160
more tax burden coming on that 
and maybe some more regulatory 

892
00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:10,760
pressure. 
But I want to hold Bitcoin, I 

893
00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:13,440
want to get paid in Bitcoin. 
So I better make a good product 

894
00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:17,120
that Bitcoiners want to purchase
with Bitcoin. 

895
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:21,120
Otherwise, what am I doing here?
No, I I absolutely love it. 

896
00:46:21,120 --> 00:46:24,760
And that last part, I think is 
the key here. 

897
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:30,880
And I think as a modern society,
and I'm sure we all have heard 

898
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:34,240
the meme, there's no production 
in America. 

899
00:46:34,240 --> 00:46:37,720
Everything is going to China. 
We're all used to this plastic 

900
00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:40,400
consumerism where everything's 
cheap. 

901
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:42,320
It's it's designed to throw 
away. 

902
00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:44,920
And once you get on the Bitcoin 
standard and you're an 

903
00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:48,000
entrepreneur with Bitcoin, you 
you realize it's like, oh man, 

904
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:51,440
if I want to incentivize people 
to give me Bitcoin, I have to 

905
00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:54,800
give them a high quality product
or else they're never going to 

906
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,600
give me Bitcoin. 
And I'm I'm reminded of my buddy

907
00:46:57,600 --> 00:46:59,400
by Kingo and I'm not. 
This might seem like I'm 

908
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:03,240
shitting on my boy by Kingo, but
he's like, man, how do you guys 

909
00:47:03,240 --> 00:47:05,600
get paid in Bitcoin? 
No one ever wants to pay me in 

910
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:07,400
Bitcoin. 
But I guess it's just the 

911
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:10,080
perfect market fit for you where
it's just like I don't know, 

912
00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:14,320
like people just ask me to pay 
in Bitcoin for my wine And you 

913
00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:16,480
know like you said the cyber 
Hornets helped you out. 

914
00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:19,560
I, I, I you corrected me before 
the show. 

915
00:47:19,720 --> 00:47:20,880
I'm like dude, I saw your 
numbers. 

916
00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:25,240
I saw that bitcoiners have like 
tripled your your business 

917
00:47:25,240 --> 00:47:27,360
profits and he's like you didn't
see the numbers you saw the 

918
00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:29,360
chart. 
So let's talk about this man. 

919
00:47:29,360 --> 00:47:32,120
Like how long have you been 
doing Penny Lane? 

920
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:36,560
And then how has your business 
improved since Bitcoiners have 

921
00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:40,040
just started to love your 
product and shield your product 

922
00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:42,840
and just be like, man, just the 
love you receive. 

923
00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:44,760
I see. 
Like you're you're a memer in 

924
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:47,760
your own right, but also you're 
an entrepreneur in your own 

925
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:49,560
right and people love what 
you're doing and it's just 

926
00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:50,440
beautiful to. 
Watch. 

927
00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:57,440
I started in 2019, so all of, 
most of 2019 I was getting my 

928
00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:00,360
liquor licenses and then I made 
my first wine that fall. 

929
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:01,720
And then I had to wait two 
years. 

930
00:48:01,720 --> 00:48:05,320
So I made wine, moved home, 
built my house, and then made 

931
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:07,360
wine again before I ever sold 
any wine. 

932
00:48:07,720 --> 00:48:12,400
So two years of waiting and then
a year of like, oh OK, is my 

933
00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:14,000
wine good? 
Is this going to even work at 

934
00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:16,120
all after investing that much 
time? 

935
00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,960
And then the third year was 
confirmation of, or maybe the 

936
00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:22,400
4th. 
The second year of sales was 

937
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:24,920
confirmation that I had 
something here. 

938
00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:27,360
I had a good product and people 
were liking it. 

939
00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:31,520
That time I was not selling to 
bitcoiners at all, and my idea 

940
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:35,760
was really like I had an 
Internet side hustle before 

941
00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:37,920
selling stickers, selling some 
T-shirts and stuff. 

942
00:48:38,240 --> 00:48:39,960
I didn't really want to work on 
the computer. 

943
00:48:39,960 --> 00:48:42,600
I like working with wine, I like
working with my hands a little 

944
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:45,000
bit more. 
And so I never really had the 

945
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:49,280
intention to sell wine online 
and living in a town of 2000 

946
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:52,160
people, I lived within two hours
of some ski towns. 

947
00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:55,640
So I was doing farmers markets 
and and going to ski towns to 

948
00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:58,320
sell my wine to a little bit 
more affluent people that can 

949
00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,320
afford to value what I have 
properly. 

950
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:08,080
And then Bitcoiners started 
asking to buy wine and all of a 

951
00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:11,160
sudden I had a business that 
shipped wine all over the 

952
00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:15,400
country and that's growing. 
I think it's a little hard to 

953
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:18,280
ask people to buy your product 
with Bitcoin at the bottom of 

954
00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:20,080
the bear market. 
I definitely got a lot of full 

955
00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:24,040
How can I justify buying this 
nice bottle of wine with 

956
00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:26,760
bitcoins at 16 K? 
And I get it, 'cause like I was 

957
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:30,840
all in on Bitcoin at 16 K trying
to get as much as possible sold,

958
00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:36,000
a few bottles at that price that
are potentially the most will 

959
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:37,800
become the most expensive 
bottles ever. 

960
00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:41,040
We'll see. 
I there's probably wine that's 

961
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:45,200
been bought with Bitcoin before 
that, but it's it's worked out 

962
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:47,880
well, it's it's turned. 
It's given me the ability to 

963
00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:50,120
scale my business in a way that 
wouldn't have really been 

964
00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:54,240
possible without huge capital 
infusion, to build a tasting 

965
00:49:55,000 --> 00:50:01,320
room space, to to be like a 
really in person business before

966
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:04,400
I'm ready to do that. 
That's the ultimate goal is I 

967
00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:06,600
want to have a business in my 
town to make my town a little 

968
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:10,360
bit more the way that I want it,
just by bringing in the right 

969
00:50:10,360 --> 00:50:12,520
music, the right wine, bringing 
the right people together. 

970
00:50:12,840 --> 00:50:17,880
But right now, it's way better 
for me to scale up ship wine and

971
00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:24,240
allow people outside of Colorado
to get exposed to Colorado wine.

972
00:50:24,240 --> 00:50:28,680
That's a lot of wine makers in 
around me are stuck in this 

973
00:50:29,160 --> 00:50:33,520
world where people don't know 
Colorado wine and then and thus 

974
00:50:33,520 --> 00:50:36,640
don't really seek it out or 
don't know it exists at all. 

975
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:41,200
And I've hit this point where 
it's like, it's not about 

976
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,400
Colorado wine necessarily my 
wine. 

977
00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:46,760
I have natural wine, no 
additives, and it's in the 

978
00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:48,840
highest elevation wine region in
North America. 

979
00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:53,800
So it's a different sales pitch 
where bitcoiners seem open to 

980
00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:56,120
the quality, open to trying 
something new and open to 

981
00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:59,640
supporting their own. 
And it's opening people's eyes a

982
00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:03,600
little bit more to Colorado 
wine, which I hope will benefit 

983
00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:06,880
everyone in Colorado just being 
exposed to it. 

984
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:14,280
OK, so I'm laughing at the view 
going the VCs, watching, or 

985
00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:17,320
salivating at the thought of 
investing in Bitcoin wine. 

986
00:51:17,800 --> 00:51:19,280
Oh my. 
God, a no brainer. 

987
00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:21,320
Like of course I want to hold 
Bitcoin. 

988
00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:24,360
It's the best asset. 
Like why would I want to take 

989
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:27,360
profits in in anything else? 
I mean, that is taking my 

990
00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:29,360
profits is literally selling 
wine for Bitcoin. 

991
00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:32,680
Otherwise I just all the dollars
I get go back into the business,

992
00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:36,720
go back into creating more wine 
and I got to have that, I got to

993
00:51:36,720 --> 00:51:39,760
do that. 
But ultimately it's I'm in a 

994
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:43,720
pretty cool spot where the whole
time the previous four years I 

995
00:51:43,720 --> 00:51:47,000
either didn't have any wine or 
didn't have enough wine. 

996
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:52,000
And now, just by the magic of 
waiting, I have a ton of wine 

997
00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:54,840
and can finally scale up the 
business, scale up the sales and

998
00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:58,520
do things right. 
And it just happens to time with

999
00:51:58,960 --> 00:52:02,120
a bull run. 
So I guess you could say my 

1000
00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:04,120
customers are getting richer 
along with me. 

1001
00:52:05,800 --> 00:52:07,720
Let's get. 
That's probably the yeah. 

1002
00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:10,280
What's it? 
Build, build it and they will 

1003
00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:10,920
come. 
Man. 

1004
00:52:10,920 --> 00:52:14,040
It's a perfect time. 
Anyways, I I do kind of want to 

1005
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:17,480
want to touch on like what? 
What's been the process of you 

1006
00:52:17,480 --> 00:52:19,920
actually accepting Bitcoin? 
I saw you were saying like 

1007
00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:23,960
people just DM ING you like, so 
like, what's going on there? 

1008
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:27,200
It's magic. 
Speaking from a customer 

1009
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:31,280
experience, I just DM Ben. 
He sends me an address, I send 

1010
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:32,800
Bitcoin to it, and he sends me 
one. 

1011
00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:34,200
It's magical. 
Wow. 

1012
00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:40,200
So the with liquor being a 
alcohol being a regulated 

1013
00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:43,920
product, I have to kind of go 
through these specific 

1014
00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:48,960
compliance companies compliance 
use things because I have to 

1015
00:52:48,960 --> 00:52:50,760
have compliance in every single 
state. 

1016
00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:53,840
I'm a one man show. 
I don't have the ability or 

1017
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:55,920
realistically the sales to 
justify that. 

1018
00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:59,200
So I use a company that takes 
10% of everything. 

1019
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:03,280
I I put through them and I have 
been messaging them for three 

1020
00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:07,680
years about Bitcoin, allowing me
to accept Bitcoin and they 

1021
00:53:07,680 --> 00:53:11,560
don't. 
So previously I was using the 

1022
00:53:11,560 --> 00:53:15,800
Oshi app, which is a great 
marketplace for Bitcoin products

1023
00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:18,160
that it's kind of curated some 
really high quality stuff in 

1024
00:53:18,160 --> 00:53:19,840
there and you can buy everything
with Bitcoin. 

1025
00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:21,520
Don't think you can use dollars 
at all. 

1026
00:53:22,040 --> 00:53:25,280
And that was great. 
But ultimately I I need to get 

1027
00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:27,120
something on my site. 
So I'm working on the back end 

1028
00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:29,840
to get something up on the 
website that you can just buy 

1029
00:53:29,840 --> 00:53:32,640
Bitcoin directly. 
But yeah, you can't. 

1030
00:53:33,360 --> 00:53:34,840
I can't. 
My hands are tied. 

1031
00:53:34,840 --> 00:53:37,760
Like I want to accept Bitcoin 
just like that. 

1032
00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:40,520
Because when I shop with and use
Bitcoin to pay, it's so easy, 

1033
00:53:40,520 --> 00:53:42,520
but it's not for me and it's 
really frustrating. 

1034
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:45,440
So working on that in the back 
end right now, yeah, it is 

1035
00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:49,480
literally DMSI personally write 
your order. 

1036
00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:53,040
It's like very clunky on my end.
Like I try to make it as easy as

1037
00:53:53,040 --> 00:53:57,120
possible for you guys, but it's 
not it's not sustainable, but at

1038
00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:00,160
the at the same time like I'm 
stacking stats and so that's 

1039
00:54:00,160 --> 00:54:02,400
that's all that matters. 
I have to go through the extra 

1040
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:04,120
effort. 
I was going to say like I didn't

1041
00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:06,000
mean to dox you there, Ben. 
Like hopefully I'm not getting 

1042
00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:07,480
you in trouble with your 
compliance department or 

1043
00:54:07,480 --> 00:54:11,520
anything or, but you know you 
need to hire a a Bitcoin order 

1044
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:13,720
taker guy. 
It sounds like the one role that

1045
00:54:13,720 --> 00:54:15,640
you need to hire as you scale 
up. 

1046
00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:18,640
Yeah, no, Everything goes 
through like I accept the 

1047
00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:20,320
Bitcoin and then I just put it 
as a cash sale. 

1048
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:23,760
So everything goes through the 
compliance and gets the proper 

1049
00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:27,520
taxes and everything, and I 
think I'm covered there. 

1050
00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:31,560
Probably well wish this video 
was destroyed in four years. 

1051
00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:38,560
But oh man, that's too good. 
OK, Ben, let's. 

1052
00:54:38,600 --> 00:54:40,560
All right. 
I know we said we're we weren't 

1053
00:54:40,560 --> 00:54:43,160
going to talk about wine but 
let's let's talk about wine. 

1054
00:54:43,160 --> 00:54:47,680
So I'm over here on your website
pennylanewine.com you have a few

1055
00:54:47,680 --> 00:54:51,360
different I don't even know 
flavors what how do you 

1056
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:54,400
different wines. 
I you know I don't know much 

1057
00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:55,360
about wine. 
I. 

1058
00:54:56,000 --> 00:54:58,920
He he just just drinks wine. 
He doesn't do it. 

1059
00:54:59,120 --> 00:55:01,480
Talk about wine as much with you
'cause you don't know your shit.

1060
00:55:01,480 --> 00:55:03,520
Yeah, I don't. 
I don't do. 

1061
00:55:03,960 --> 00:55:07,200
Literally, I I only know that I 
like red wine. 

1062
00:55:07,680 --> 00:55:09,880
My mom likes we've had this 
conversation. 

1063
00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:13,400
She likes Malbec and tempernios,
and I don't know any wine other 

1064
00:55:13,400 --> 00:55:16,120
than those two, so I don't know.
Maybe those are awesome though. 

1065
00:55:16,320 --> 00:55:17,360
OK, awesome. 
Those are awesome. 

1066
00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:19,440
And. 
I've got a great tempernio 

1067
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:23,280
coming, but right now I have 
4/20/20 ones released. 

1068
00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:25,120
So that's the current vintage 
I'm selling. 

1069
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:28,960
And then I have very limited 
supply of all the twenty 20s. 

1070
00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:35,160
So there's the Merlot, Oak Shard
and Cab Franc which were huge 

1071
00:55:35,160 --> 00:55:38,680
hits for the 2020 vintage and 
I've kind of held those back 

1072
00:55:38,680 --> 00:55:41,120
wanting it to be if you know, 
you know, if you know these, 

1073
00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:42,920
these are that great, you can 
grab them. 

1074
00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:47,200
And then soon I'll launch my 
wine club and those will go to 

1075
00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:49,760
wine club members only whatever 
is left being kind of an 

1076
00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:55,480
exclusive access to those wines.
So and the 2020 ones are 

1077
00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:57,720
drinking amazing. 
I mean as I'm doing this longer 

1078
00:55:57,720 --> 00:55:59,200
I'm becoming a much better wine 
maker. 

1079
00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:04,440
So it's it's cool to open up the
new vintages and try the new 

1080
00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:07,360
ones and see like how much 
better of a steward I got of 

1081
00:56:07,360 --> 00:56:09,960
this wine. 
Because ultimately it's it's my 

1082
00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:15,320
droll is just to kind of let the
wine do its thing and be as have

1083
00:56:15,400 --> 00:56:18,120
my hands on it as little as 
possible but just put it in the 

1084
00:56:18,120 --> 00:56:21,280
right places to succeed. 
Because I think I have amazing 

1085
00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:24,000
grapes out here that produce 
great, great wine. 

1086
00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:27,800
And I mean the proof is in the 
pudding it it drinks great. 

1087
00:56:28,120 --> 00:56:32,560
But what I'm really excited for 
coming up, I've got Satoshi's 

1088
00:56:32,560 --> 00:56:36,200
Reserve bottle, which is my 
limited edition 210 bottle 

1089
00:56:36,200 --> 00:56:39,920
release of the best barrel of my
2021 wine. 

1090
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:43,440
So I literally just went in 
bridal, agnostic, just tasted 

1091
00:56:43,440 --> 00:56:45,440
every barrel, decided this was 
my best. 

1092
00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:50,320
And so since there is no second 
best, I have to put as much 

1093
00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:53,040
Bitcoin on this as possible. 
So I'm planning on selling that 

1094
00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:58,760
only for Bitcoin and release 
date is not set but before the 

1095
00:56:58,760 --> 00:57:01,280
halving. 
And then people have been asking

1096
00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:04,560
me about my Pinot Noir and 
that's my state wine. 

1097
00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:05,720
That's the thing I'm most proud 
of. 

1098
00:57:05,720 --> 00:57:09,080
But in 2021 there was no grapes.
We got frozen out. 

1099
00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:12,000
So I don't have a 2021 vintage 
to release right now. 

1100
00:57:12,720 --> 00:57:15,920
But it got me curious. 
I started tasting my 2022 Pinot 

1101
00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:21,440
Noir early and it's ridiculously
good already, which I thought it

1102
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:24,160
would need more time. 
But it's it's still, it's insane

1103
00:57:24,160 --> 00:57:25,960
right now. 
So that'll probably release 

1104
00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:29,280
before June and I've got a few 
other wines coming that are 

1105
00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:31,600
going to be really exciting. 
Love it, bro. 

1106
00:57:31,680 --> 00:57:33,920
Love it. 
Let's let's go one quick. 

1107
00:57:33,920 --> 00:57:37,000
Question on that on the on the 
Satoshi reserve or the reserve 

1108
00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:39,440
bottles, are you going to put 
like the block height as you're 

1109
00:57:39,440 --> 00:57:41,600
bottling them and stuff? 
That would be kind of cool. 

1110
00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:44,000
I'm just saying. 
Not as I'm bottling because the 

1111
00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:47,840
that's kind of they've been 
bottled for a year and a half 

1112
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:51,080
already but. 
Chris. 

1113
00:57:51,160 --> 00:57:52,120
Nuggets on there. 
But. 

1114
00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:55,120
I think the I'm back dating it 
for sure. 

1115
00:57:55,120 --> 00:57:59,000
The more important block height 
to me is the harvest height 

1116
00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:02,440
because that's really when the 
genesis of the wine began was 

1117
00:58:02,440 --> 00:58:04,800
when the grapes were picked. 
I mean because you can't really 

1118
00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:07,520
do like when the grapes started 
growing that year that's that's 

1119
00:58:07,520 --> 00:58:10,320
impossible. 
So harvest height, block height 

1120
00:58:10,320 --> 00:58:12,600
there, that that is definitely 
going to be on the label. 

1121
00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:19,680
I promise this was nostril. 
Oh, let's go. 

1122
00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:24,000
Wait, wait, wait. 
Show me a little more show. 

1123
00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:26,200
Show me one second longer. 
One second longer. 

1124
00:58:27,840 --> 00:58:30,400
A paper label. 
So it's it's just a prototype. 

1125
00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:33,160
It'll be nice and shiny for you,
something you can either put on 

1126
00:58:33,160 --> 00:58:35,680
your, you know, put on your 
shelf behind your podcast, 

1127
00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:40,800
recording studio, or drink. 
In the wink wink wink. 

1128
00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:45,320
Don't just verify o'dell. 
It's on YouTube now, baby. 

1129
00:58:47,480 --> 00:58:49,280
All right. 
There is some questions here 

1130
00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:54,560
that I think it would be great 
to respond to Ben before I touch

1131
00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:58,720
on your meming. 
So MG Smith says oof pricey 

1132
00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:00,920
$2.00 Chuck at Trader Joe's for 
the win. 

1133
00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:05,680
So let's look at this. 
You know, I see it on your chart

1134
00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:07,840
here. 
There's a method to the madness.

1135
00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:11,640
Look, if you want that cheap 
wine, by all means buy it. 

1136
00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:14,360
But you're buying good wine. 
What would be your response to 

1137
00:59:14,360 --> 00:59:19,520
this, Ben? 
It's it's kind of health related

1138
00:59:19,560 --> 00:59:24,320
and taste preference related 
where if you're drinking $2.00 

1139
00:59:24,320 --> 00:59:25,840
Chuck, go for it. 
Save the money. 

1140
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:28,960
But ultimately, like you're 
adding a ton of chemicals to 

1141
00:59:28,960 --> 00:59:31,560
your body. 
There's no ingredients list on a

1142
00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:35,280
wine bottle and anything that 
that's priced that cheap is 

1143
00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:38,680
ridiculous. 
I spend more than that bottle 

1144
00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:42,960
costs on grapes per bottle, and 
what they're doing is taking 

1145
00:59:42,960 --> 00:59:44,960
like all the leftover, all the 
worst grapes. 

1146
00:59:44,960 --> 00:59:47,360
And then they're adding a ton of
chemicals to it to change the 

1147
00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:50,560
taste, profile, aroma, texture, 
color. 

1148
00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:57,080
It's the wine industry is as 
shady as the crypto industry. 

1149
00:59:57,920 --> 00:59:59,640
And shot. 
Fired. 

1150
01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:02,360
Yeah. 
I mean, and it's old. 

1151
01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:04,560
It's it's scared. 
It's sketchy, man. 

1152
01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:07,960
Like I I kind of cringe about 
the wine industry because there 

1153
01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:11,640
is so much hidden. 
There's so much hidden behind 

1154
01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:13,840
this veneer of just not 
understanding it. 

1155
01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:17,600
And there's no clarity because 
there's no, there's no 

1156
01:00:17,600 --> 01:00:19,800
ingredients list on the label. 
I'm not asking for more 

1157
01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:22,360
bureaucracy, but just so you 
know, like you're drinking a ton

1158
01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:25,880
of super high sulfite wine. 
And I mean, a lot of those 

1159
01:00:25,920 --> 01:00:28,520
really crappy wines have an 
ingredient called Mega Purple to

1160
01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:31,280
change the color. 
So you just feel worse after 

1161
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:33,640
drinking it. 
And if your goal is just to get 

1162
01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:36,360
drunk, go for it, man. 
Like, you're going to get 

1163
01:00:36,800 --> 01:00:38,000
hungover, whatever you're 
drinking. 

1164
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:42,280
But if you're drinking something
that's meant for like a nice 

1165
01:00:42,280 --> 01:00:45,280
dinner with family friends, 
celebrating something, you're 

1166
01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:48,440
going to drink a nicer bottle. 
So this what I make is not 

1167
01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:50,800
unless you're like, super 
loaded. 

1168
01:00:50,800 --> 01:00:54,760
It's it's realistically, it's 
just not for just hammering down

1169
01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:57,000
and getting drunk. 
It's for enjoying, savoring, 

1170
01:00:57,000 --> 01:01:00,320
having great conversations with.
And the idea is really you're 

1171
01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:02,880
just going to feel a hell of a 
lot better the next day than you

1172
01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:06,040
would expect to with wine. 
Because people talk about wine 

1173
01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:07,880
hangovers. 
Like, man, I'll never get drunk 

1174
01:01:07,880 --> 01:01:10,080
on wine again. 
I felt so crappy the next day. 

1175
01:01:10,240 --> 01:01:13,520
It's not the wine, it's 
literally everything else that's

1176
01:01:13,520 --> 01:01:15,200
in the wine. 
So if you drink wine, that's 

1177
01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:18,080
literally just the grapes, you 
just feel so much better 

1178
01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:20,240
afterwards that it's very 
worthwhile. 

1179
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:24,200
It's also like I my wine tastes 
better, so there's it's more 

1180
01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:25,720
than just help. 
Soft flex. 

1181
01:01:25,720 --> 01:01:28,240
Soft flex. 
OK, let's go to a few. 

1182
01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:28,840
Yeah. 
Hard flex. 

1183
01:01:28,840 --> 01:01:32,480
Let's go to a few more. 
So Nigel goes, does Ben grow all

1184
01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:34,760
these grapes in the same climate
slash place? 

1185
01:01:36,280 --> 01:01:40,320
I grow Pinot Noir where I am in 
Peonia and that's the highest 

1186
01:01:40,320 --> 01:01:41,880
elevation Pinot in North 
America. 

1187
01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:46,640
So it's a pretty special wine 
and that's like my flagship, my 

1188
01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:48,320
state wine. 
That's why I want to release the

1189
01:01:48,320 --> 01:01:50,520
2022 a little earlier, to have 
it there. 

1190
01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:53,000
So that's the one that I'm like 
full on. 

1191
01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:56,120
This is the best, cleanest wine 
you can get because I can vouch 

1192
01:01:56,120 --> 01:01:59,600
for every part of the process. 
Then the rest, Most of the rest 

1193
01:01:59,600 --> 01:02:03,760
of my grapes I get from about an
hour away from me in a slightly 

1194
01:02:04,080 --> 01:02:07,400
about 1500 feet lower. 
So it's 4500 foot elevation, 

1195
01:02:08,520 --> 01:02:11,360
still very high elevation for 
grape growing and it's still in 

1196
01:02:11,360 --> 01:02:13,760
Colorado. 
So I know the producers, I I 

1197
01:02:13,760 --> 01:02:16,640
trust them pretty well with with
their practices and and know 

1198
01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:19,760
what they're doing and they grow
great quality grapes and also 

1199
01:02:19,760 --> 01:02:24,240
different varieties than I can 
grow where I am because the high

1200
01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:26,520
elevation really restricts what 
I can grow. 

1201
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:32,320
So I need a little bit of help 
growing. 

1202
01:02:32,320 --> 01:02:34,920
I need the different varieties 
and everything, but what I'm 

1203
01:02:34,920 --> 01:02:38,480
really resting my my hat on is 
the Pinot, and then everything 

1204
01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:40,840
else is made in the same process
once it gets to me. 

1205
01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:44,720
So it's no additives, super 
minimal sulfites in there, 

1206
01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:48,120
really just the natural ones. 
And then you're getting a really

1207
01:02:48,120 --> 01:02:51,960
high quality product as well, 
even though I'm not growing 

1208
01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:54,760
every one of these grapes. 
Love it, love it. 

1209
01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:56,680
OK, we got one more question 
here. 

1210
01:02:56,840 --> 01:03:00,600
Sail Dog 18 goes. 
Which one is an earthy dry red? 

1211
01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:05,200
I'm really liking the 2021 
temper Neo right now it's it's 

1212
01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:08,840
relatively earthy as in terms of
it's kind of got like these like

1213
01:03:08,840 --> 01:03:13,320
smoky tobacco notes to it. 
And then the number one thing 

1214
01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:15,560
that I've had probably the best 
wine that I'm selling right now 

1215
01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:19,000
is the 2020 Cab Franc. 
That's a deeper, like deeper 

1216
01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:20,760
fruit, more earthy. 
It's got a little bit of 

1217
01:03:21,080 --> 01:03:23,280
vegetable notes in it that 
people really like with the Cab 

1218
01:03:23,280 --> 01:03:28,040
Franc, and what I find is people
that ask for that style of wine,

1219
01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:31,000
that Cab Franc, the 2020 is a 
hit for them. 

1220
01:03:32,040 --> 01:03:34,640
Love it. 
OK, on a personal note, can we 

1221
01:03:34,640 --> 01:03:36,600
buy cases? 
Is there a discount if we buy 

1222
01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:39,680
more than one bottle? 
Or what's going on here? 

1223
01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:43,040
So currently 3 bottle minimum. 
It doesn't make sense to ship 

1224
01:03:43,040 --> 01:03:45,440
one bottle of wine SO3 bottle 
minimum. 

1225
01:03:45,440 --> 01:03:48,160
And then if you order six I ship
it to you free so you don't have

1226
01:03:48,160 --> 01:03:51,520
to worry about those costs. 
And then if you buy 12, you get 

1227
01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:56,880
10% off and then if you slide 
into my TMS, I give you 10% off 

1228
01:03:56,880 --> 01:04:00,240
for paying in Bitcoin. 
So lots of discounts there 20. 

1229
01:04:00,640 --> 01:04:04,000
Percent off, let's go, let's 11 
more question. 

1230
01:04:04,360 --> 01:04:06,000
Jay Thoreau goes one more 
question. 

1231
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:09,240
What advice does Ben have for 
bitcoiners getting started in 

1232
01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:15,600
their own entrepreneur journeys?
I think it's figure out what you

1233
01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:17,200
actually want to be doing long 
term. 

1234
01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:20,720
The part of how what got me on 
this was I was looking for 

1235
01:04:20,720 --> 01:04:24,560
something to really commit to 
and just not have a side hustle,

1236
01:04:24,560 --> 01:04:26,920
not give up, just. 
I have two years of, wow, I just

1237
01:04:26,920 --> 01:04:28,360
made wine. 
I better see this through. 

1238
01:04:29,080 --> 01:04:33,360
And in that time I was able to 
really center, like, what do I 

1239
01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:35,360
want in my life? 
How do I want to build this 

1240
01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:37,280
business to get me what I want 
in my life? 

1241
01:04:37,680 --> 01:04:40,600
And I was given that time after 
I started the business, I just 

1242
01:04:40,600 --> 01:04:43,760
jumped on to start making wine 
and went for it and then figured

1243
01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:45,520
it out later. 
But if you're figuring out 

1244
01:04:45,520 --> 01:04:48,040
something that's a little bit 
sooner, you kind of, I think you

1245
01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:51,560
want to get to know what you're 
good at, what you want in life. 

1246
01:04:51,960 --> 01:04:54,160
And then, yeah, you can build a 
team to surround yourself, to 

1247
01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:56,880
fill your, to fill your 
weaknesses. 

1248
01:04:56,880 --> 01:05:01,240
But ultimately, like, if you're 
an entrepreneur, you're going to

1249
01:05:01,240 --> 01:05:03,360
do it. 
And so build a, build a business

1250
01:05:03,360 --> 01:05:06,840
that you're excited to get up 
and do every day because that's 

1251
01:05:06,840 --> 01:05:09,320
your life, that's your baby, 
that's what you're doing all the

1252
01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:12,800
time. 
So wine starting out was not 

1253
01:05:12,800 --> 01:05:17,040
that for me and it's become that
because it's become a vehicle to

1254
01:05:17,040 --> 01:05:20,360
so many other things of 
enjoyment. 

1255
01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:23,640
Like I get to drink great wine 
with people, I get invited to 

1256
01:05:23,640 --> 01:05:29,040
dinners, I have something to do 
with my hands all the time and a

1257
01:05:29,040 --> 01:05:30,320
great product to share with 
people. 

1258
01:05:30,320 --> 01:05:34,960
I mean it's it's pretty awesome.
I would just stand behind what 

1259
01:05:34,960 --> 01:05:37,840
you're doing 100% and and I 
think you'll find your way. 

1260
01:05:38,720 --> 01:05:41,800
Love it. 
OK, we are going into the meme 

1261
01:05:41,800 --> 01:05:45,920
review, But before we do that, 
we have a few memes that people 

1262
01:05:45,920 --> 01:05:47,760
want to respond to the Bitcoin 
bugle. 

1263
01:05:47,880 --> 01:05:51,520
What songs does Ben sing to his 
grapes as they grow? 

1264
01:05:52,240 --> 01:05:55,160
So for a long time I was singing
Rage Against the Machine, but 

1265
01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:59,720
these days I've been singing Can
You Take Me Higher? 

1266
01:06:03,920 --> 01:06:05,640
OK, that's so funny. 
All right. 

1267
01:06:05,640 --> 01:06:07,800
And then the last thing that 
says going into the meme review,

1268
01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:10,400
people are saying it's opti's 
Friday Meme Review extravaganza.

1269
01:06:10,640 --> 01:06:14,200
You are known for a very popular
meme. 

1270
01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:20,000
What meme is that, then? 
You talking about the meat in my

1271
01:06:20,000 --> 01:06:22,000
pocket? 
The meat in your pocket. 

1272
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:24,440
The pocket steak? 
Do you have a pocket steak 

1273
01:06:24,440 --> 01:06:27,520
currently in your pocket? 
I ate it before the show. 

1274
01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:29,360
I figured it was better. 
Than not, you know, the camera. 

1275
01:06:30,080 --> 01:06:32,200
Nice, nice. 
So what? 

1276
01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:35,560
Like the pocket meme or the 
pocket steak meme? 

1277
01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:39,200
It seems like it's taken on a 
life of its own, and I I 

1278
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:40,960
legitimately didn't know that 
you started it. 

1279
01:06:40,960 --> 01:06:42,920
I'm like he Ben didn't start 
this. 

1280
01:06:42,920 --> 01:06:46,480
And like, apparently you're the 
genesis of the pocket steak 

1281
01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:48,360
meme. 
And now it's only. 

1282
01:06:48,360 --> 01:06:50,480
Everywhere. 
Just have notifications on for 

1283
01:06:50,480 --> 01:06:52,440
Ben's tweets and you'll you'll 
never know that. 

1284
01:06:52,480 --> 01:06:53,880
You'll never forget he didn't 
start a meeting. 

1285
01:06:53,880 --> 01:06:56,080
Yeah, that's. 
True, That's true. 

1286
01:06:56,080 --> 01:06:59,680
So, OK, getting a little 
serious, what's the what's the 

1287
01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:02,600
technicals of the pocket steak? 
You cook it and you just put it 

1288
01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:06,000
in a zip log in your pocket and 
you have snacks all day. 

1289
01:07:07,240 --> 01:07:13,120
I do recommend using protection,
but I know there's people who 

1290
01:07:13,120 --> 01:07:17,480
raw dog their pocket meet. 
And I mean it's ultimately, it's

1291
01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:20,000
just like the best I started. 
I was just doing it when I'm 

1292
01:07:20,000 --> 01:07:21,920
skiing, like during the summer, 
I kind of get it. 

1293
01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:23,840
You don't really want a sweaty 
steak in your pocket. 

1294
01:07:23,840 --> 01:07:27,160
But when you're skiing, yeah, 
it's cold, it's refrigerated, 

1295
01:07:27,160 --> 01:07:29,960
whatever, It's on an outside 
pocket and it's perfect. 

1296
01:07:29,960 --> 01:07:33,400
Like you rip it out, you grip it
and rip it on the lift and 

1297
01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:34,640
you're full. 
You're ready to go. 

1298
01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:36,840
Like it's full. 
You just take a few bites and 

1299
01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:38,480
you're ready to go for the rest 
of the day. 

1300
01:07:38,920 --> 01:07:44,800
And also added benefit, the 
reactions of people on the ski 

1301
01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:47,600
lift when you break out a pocket
stake is amazing. 

1302
01:07:47,880 --> 01:07:52,160
I get everything from total like
disgust, repulsiveness. 

1303
01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:56,520
People like not understanding 
what I'm doing to people calling

1304
01:07:56,520 --> 01:07:59,400
me their hero and that's that's 
why I get up every day. 

1305
01:08:01,600 --> 01:08:03,240
Love it. 
Love it. 

1306
01:08:03,240 --> 01:08:05,680
All right, Ben. 
Well, thanks for coming on, bro.

1307
01:08:05,680 --> 01:08:07,240
That was great. 
Great conversation. 

1308
01:08:07,240 --> 01:08:10,440
All right, guys, it's time. 
You already know it's Friday. 

1309
01:08:10,960 --> 01:08:12,640
Everyone thinks we don't like 
the memes. 

1310
01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:15,560
No, we just do it on Friday. 
Here we go. 

1311
01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:27,960
Opti's Friday meme review. 
Oh, yeah, you guys like my 

1312
01:08:27,960 --> 01:08:29,680
transition. 
Honestly, I need to cut it down.

1313
01:08:29,680 --> 01:08:32,120
That was a little too long. 
But hey, you know, we had to 

1314
01:08:32,120 --> 01:08:33,960
ship it. 
We had to ship it and grip it. 

1315
01:08:33,960 --> 01:08:35,080
All right, guys, go to another 
deal. 

1316
01:08:35,080 --> 01:08:38,200
This is Friday where we review 
Bitcoin memes. 

1317
01:08:38,760 --> 01:08:41,439
Send me the memes on Twitter. 
Simply Bitcoin TV. 

1318
01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:43,640
You can tag my personal one, add
Optimus fields. 

1319
01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:46,000
But I prefer the simply Bitcoin 
one because don't blow my 

1320
01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:49,200
notifications up or drop them in
our Telegram group. 

1321
01:08:49,200 --> 01:08:53,080
I look in there as well. 
But you are another deal tweets 

1322
01:08:53,080 --> 01:08:54,560
of the bullets, memes of the 
artillery. 

1323
01:08:54,560 --> 01:08:57,479
As you can tell from today's 
show, Bitcoin is saturating. 

1324
01:08:57,479 --> 01:09:01,680
Popular culture is getting 
propagated in every corner of 

1325
01:09:01,680 --> 01:09:04,720
the globe, and the way we do 
this is by spreading the memes. 

1326
01:09:04,720 --> 01:09:07,279
So continue to ridicule the 
corporate press. 

1327
01:09:07,439 --> 01:09:10,240
Continue to get the calls of 
actions out there in Bitcoin. 

1328
01:09:10,240 --> 01:09:12,600
Continue to educate your friends
and family and of course 

1329
01:09:13,279 --> 01:09:15,880
continue to make the funnies so 
your friends head stay in the 

1330
01:09:15,880 --> 01:09:16,840
game. 
All right. 

1331
01:09:16,840 --> 01:09:19,560
The first one is, you know kind 
of surprising. 

1332
01:09:19,560 --> 01:09:21,359
Elon Musk have been going super 
hard on Twitter. 

1333
01:09:21,359 --> 01:09:23,120
Love him or hate him it's 
besides the point. 

1334
01:09:23,279 --> 01:09:26,319
But he's dropping some fire 
memes like constantly dropping 

1335
01:09:26,319 --> 01:09:28,840
fire memes. 
You know, billionaire meming 

1336
01:09:28,840 --> 01:09:30,800
with us. 
Not only sailor, we got Elon 

1337
01:09:30,800 --> 01:09:33,840
Musk. 
You know Musk Musk allegedly for

1338
01:09:33,840 --> 01:09:37,240
for all you flat earthers in the
chat over there allegedly you 

1339
01:09:37,240 --> 01:09:41,960
know lands land something on the
moon yesterday and still has 

1340
01:09:41,960 --> 01:09:45,000
time to drop memes. 
It's absolutely incredible and 

1341
01:09:45,080 --> 01:09:47,279
of course this isn't his meme 
but I think it's fitting for 

1342
01:09:47,279 --> 01:09:49,800
today's show and it goes. 
I'm sure you guys have heard the

1343
01:09:50,080 --> 01:09:52,840
the basics of this meme here 
it's the two wolves one he goes 

1344
01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:56,320
inside you there are two wolves 
the black wolf goes I hate the 

1345
01:09:56,320 --> 01:09:59,760
Federal Reserve and then the 
white wolf goes lol same oh you 

1346
01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:03,160
can see at liberty list is the 
the meme creator. 

1347
01:10:03,360 --> 01:10:06,160
But I think we can all agree you
know the central banks are the 

1348
01:10:06,160 --> 01:10:10,520
real reason why we are all 
broker than we should be. 

1349
01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:15,000
OK, next one is by our boy Rd. 
under score BTC, who just made a

1350
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:17,000
hot appearance in the Bugle this
morning. 

1351
01:10:17,560 --> 01:10:20,440
And it goes, thanks for your 
concern hashtag Bitcoin. 

1352
01:10:20,640 --> 01:10:23,520
And you know we got an MPC 
Wojack here and he goes, I do 

1353
01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:26,520
worry about you and your 
bitcoins and the Chad Bitcoin it

1354
01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:29,040
goes, thanks. 
But And then as laser eyes come 

1355
01:10:29,040 --> 01:10:31,000
on, it goes. 
I worry about your reliance on 

1356
01:10:31,000 --> 01:10:34,560
third parties, your spiraling 
cost of living, and your woeful 

1357
01:10:34,560 --> 01:10:40,040
understanding of money. 
And the NPC just goes, oh man, I

1358
01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:42,040
shouldn't have opened that can 
of worms. 

1359
01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:47,120
And yesterday we saw the Andrew 
Sorkin video with Joe Kern and 

1360
01:10:47,120 --> 01:10:51,200
Tom Lee and he's going out there
and you know, trying to debunk 

1361
01:10:51,200 --> 01:10:53,840
Bitcoin. 
And I don't know if you guys 

1362
01:10:53,840 --> 01:10:58,800
caught the moment, but after he 
said the ridiculous line that he

1363
01:10:58,800 --> 01:11:02,280
said he did this like face and 
so it's a screenshot of his face

1364
01:11:02,280 --> 01:11:05,520
and it goes a store of value 
would stay the same price and he

1365
01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:10,200
does it like eyes, you know, so 
shouts out to TC. 

1366
01:11:10,800 --> 01:11:13,360
Shouts out to Joe Kern, too 
Biggest Bitcoin Podcaster? 

1367
01:11:13,360 --> 01:11:15,920
In the biggest Bitcoin podcaster
in the world, you know we're 

1368
01:11:15,960 --> 01:11:17,640
we're, we're getting put to 
shame, Chris. 

1369
01:11:17,640 --> 01:11:20,880
We're getting put to shame. 
Anyways, the next one is by Jim 

1370
01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:24,240
Crater, TX Jim Crater, Texas. 
He was just on the show this 

1371
01:11:24,240 --> 01:11:29,320
week and like I said, he's part 
of 58K gang meme gang, 58K meme 

1372
01:11:29,320 --> 01:11:33,240
gangs, and it's a classic Anakin
and Padme meme. 

1373
01:11:33,240 --> 01:11:36,400
And we got Anakin and goes, 
we're going to 58 K and she 

1374
01:11:36,400 --> 01:11:38,280
smiles. 
She goes then higher right? 

1375
01:11:38,440 --> 01:11:41,640
And then Anakin smirks. 
Wait, then higher right. 

1376
01:11:41,640 --> 01:11:45,040
It's not 58 K forever, is it? 
Oh man, we're going higher than 

1377
01:11:45,040 --> 01:11:46,640
58K, right? 
Right. 

1378
01:11:46,880 --> 01:11:48,720
I I hope so. 
I hope so. 

1379
01:11:48,880 --> 01:11:52,520
All right, this next one. 
You know Chrissy Lagarde's been 

1380
01:11:52,520 --> 01:11:55,280
making rounds. 
Your girlfriend not only in my 

1381
01:11:55,280 --> 01:12:00,160
DMS but on the timeline. 
And we got Glocky, AKA at 

1382
01:12:00,160 --> 01:12:02,640
Clucky's under score on Twitter.
And he goes just hashtag Bitcoin

1383
01:12:03,320 --> 01:12:08,080
And here's like an AIAI version 
of Christine Lagarde with a pig 

1384
01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:10,280
face on her. 
And he goes, this greedy pig 

1385
01:12:10,280 --> 01:12:11,960
wants to inflate your savings 
away. 

1386
01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:14,320
What do you do? 
Hashtag Bitcoin? 

1387
01:12:14,320 --> 01:12:15,560
Saving Bitcoin? 
This is the way. 

1388
01:12:15,720 --> 01:12:17,120
This is the way. 
OK. 

1389
01:12:17,120 --> 01:12:19,400
This next one is by our boy 
Greg. 

1390
01:12:19,400 --> 01:12:21,800
Zoj one. 
And it goes, good morning. 

1391
01:12:21,800 --> 01:12:26,080
And I guess you know, everyone's
changing their name to Japanese 

1392
01:12:26,080 --> 01:12:28,480
figures. 
Anyways, let's look at this 

1393
01:12:28,480 --> 01:12:30,400
meme. 
It's a little longer, but I 

1394
01:12:30,400 --> 01:12:32,520
figured, why not? 
It's a meme Review Friday. 

1395
01:12:32,520 --> 01:12:36,000
So he goes 5 minutes after 
invention of wheel and you got 

1396
01:12:36,000 --> 01:12:37,800
you know, the Dharma Buddhist 
Dharma wheel here. 

1397
01:12:37,800 --> 01:12:39,480
And it goes bro. 
Literally though, bro. 

1398
01:12:39,480 --> 01:12:42,200
The whole world is a wheel 
turning round and round, an 

1399
01:12:42,200 --> 01:12:44,720
endless cycle of seasons and 
lives and realms. 

1400
01:12:44,720 --> 01:12:48,320
It all keeps turning and it all 
keeps coming back around. 

1401
01:12:48,520 --> 01:12:51,320
And then 5 minutes after 
invention of books, bro. 

1402
01:12:51,320 --> 01:12:53,480
Literally though, bro. 
The whole world in the book God 

1403
01:12:53,480 --> 01:12:56,280
is the author of being and he 
writes our names in the book of 

1404
01:12:56,280 --> 01:12:58,000
life. 
In the beginning was the word 

1405
01:12:58,000 --> 01:12:59,120
bro. 
You see bro. 

1406
01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:02,840
And then 5 minutes after 
invention of complex gears bro. 

1407
01:13:02,920 --> 01:13:05,440
Literally though bro. 
The whole world is mechanical. 

1408
01:13:05,560 --> 01:13:09,280
God is divine watchmaker and the
planet spin along predetermined 

1409
01:13:09,280 --> 01:13:11,920
path according to the turning of
cosmic gears. 

1410
01:13:12,040 --> 01:13:16,120
It's all just predictable 
mechanical path from creation to

1411
01:13:16,120 --> 01:13:17,960
here. 
And then 5 minutes after 

1412
01:13:17,960 --> 01:13:20,440
invention of Bitcoin Pro, I 
think I just figured something 

1413
01:13:20,440 --> 01:13:23,960
out. 
Oh man, oh man. 

1414
01:13:23,960 --> 01:13:25,680
So good. 
You know what we figured out 

1415
01:13:25,680 --> 01:13:28,480

We figured this out right here. 

1416
01:13:28,680 --> 01:13:31,080

01:13:52,520 --> 01:13:55,640
low key on the show, but but I I
haven't actually plugged it. 

1424
01:13:56,320 --> 01:14:01,520
It's this fresh squeezed orange 
juice because you know, 

1425
01:14:01,520 --> 01:14:04,240
everything we do is orange 
green.

It's delicious. 
Highly suggested. 

1427
01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:07,960
It's a little pricey. 
I'm not going to lie, I'm 

1428
01:14:07,960 --> 01:14:11,760
getting robbed over here by this
cold pressed orange juice.

01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:33,840
I think we're going to get them 
on the show soon, but it's. 

1456
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:36,680
I don't know what's going on. 
Blame wine, but there's 

1457
01:15:36,800 --> 01:15:40,520
something that we're waiting on.
But new batch of simply Bitcoin 

1458

I think we have.

01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:46,560
I think it's like 5 shirts and 
hoodies left. 

1460
01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:50,360
So if you want to get you know, 
if you need to go hunting and 

1461
01:15:50,360 --> 01:15:53,720
you want an orange sweater, make
sure you get yourself an orange 

1462
01:15:53,720 --> 01:15:56,560

There's still a few shirts which

1463
01:15:56,560 --> 01:16:00,440
are just the simply Bitcoin 
branded ones, but the new batch 

1464
01:16:00,440 --> 01:16:02,440
is dropping soon. 
I don't know what the delay is, 

1465
01:16:02,440 --> 01:16:04,400
but there's something's going 
on. 

1466
01:16:04,400 --> 01:16:09,600

01:19:22,200 --> 01:19:26,000
I I really like this show. 
Obviously light hearted, but I 

1534
01:19:26,000 --> 01:19:27,520
think the message is very 
important. 

1535
01:19:27,920 --> 01:19:31,040
I think people get too caught up
in this idea that we all have to

1536
01:19:31,040 --> 01:19:34,560
be miners or you know, coders 
and Bitcoin devs. 

1537
01:19:34,560 --> 01:19:39,360
And it's like, no bro, just do 
what you do best and hopefully 

1538
01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:41,920
you can incentivize people to 
give you Bitcoin for it. 

1539
01:19:41,920 --> 01:19:44,160
And I think you're a great 
example of this and of course a 

1540
01:19:44,160 --> 01:19:46,480
great member of the community 
memeing out there with everyone.

1541
01:19:46,480 --> 01:19:49,280
So, Ben, last time, what can we 
plug? 

1542
01:19:49,600 --> 01:19:53,640
Where can people find you and 
have people hit you up in the DM

1543
01:19:53,640 --> 01:19:56,840
so they can buy some wine? 
DMS are going to be wrecked at 

1544
01:19:56,880 --> 01:19:58,680
P&E Lane Wine. 
Maybe. 

1545
01:19:58,720 --> 01:19:59,600
Spell it. 
Spell it out. 

1546
01:19:59,600 --> 01:20:07,400
Spell it out for. 
People in audio PEONYLANEWINE. 

1547
01:20:07,520 --> 01:20:08,640
Hope that was slow enough for 
you. 

1548
01:20:09,480 --> 01:20:12,320
Type in Justin on Twitter, find 
me on Noster as well. 

1549
01:20:12,760 --> 01:20:15,280
And yeah, shipping wine all over
the United States. 

1550
01:20:15,280 --> 01:20:18,200
I hope you get a chance to try 
some or get a bottle before the 

1551
01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:20,680
halving or 100K. 
Whatever you choose to 

1552
01:20:20,760 --> 01:20:25,160
celebrate, it'd be awesome to 
just hear about that afterwards,

1553
01:20:25,160 --> 01:20:26,280
hear how great of a time you 
had. 

1554
01:20:26,280 --> 01:20:29,320
So let me know if you have any 
questions about the wines. 

1555
01:20:29,680 --> 01:20:33,560
My DMS are open and I'll get 
back to you as soon as I can. 

1556
01:20:34,520 --> 01:20:35,560
Let's go. 
All right. 

1557
01:20:35,560 --> 01:20:37,880
Thanks for coming on, Ben. 
We'll have to bring you back on 

1558
01:20:37,880 --> 01:20:40,720
soon. 
Maybe when the limited release 

1559
01:20:40,720 --> 01:20:43,920
comes out, when the wine club 
comes out, we'll bring you back 

1560
01:20:43,920 --> 01:20:46,200
on. 
But I hope to see you soon, bro.

1561
01:20:46,200 --> 01:20:48,640
So thanks for coming on. 
All right, guys, you already 

1562
01:20:48,640 --> 01:20:51,320
know the deal. 
It's the Friday show, so have a 

1563
01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:54,280
good weekend. 
Get outside, touch some grass, 

1564
01:20:54,280 --> 01:20:58,200
get some exercise, eat some good
food, hang out with your friends

1565
01:20:58,200 --> 01:21:00,760
and loved ones. 
But of course, like, share, 

1566
01:21:00,840 --> 01:21:04,480
subscribe and not just simply 
Bitcoin, all Bitcoin content, 

1567
01:21:04,480 --> 01:21:07,720
it's upon us to spread the 
Bitcoin signal. 

1568
01:21:08,960 --> 01:21:11,720
No one knows what's going on in 
the world, but bitcoiners do. 

1569
01:21:11,720 --> 01:21:14,400
So make sure people get on the 
Bitcoin standard. 

1570
01:21:14,400 --> 01:21:16,320
But of course, stacks at stay 
humble. 

1571
01:21:16,320 --> 01:21:19,520
This is the way. 
On that note guys, peace out and

1572
01:21:19,520 --> 01:21:23,880
we will see you on Monday.
