1
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,560
It's all going to zero against 
Bitcoin. 

2
00:00:06,560 --> 00:00:16,320
It's going up forever. 
You're against Bitcoin. 

3
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:25,560
You're against freedom. 
Incitement to racial hatred 

4
00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:30,360
involves publishing or 
distributing material which is 

5
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:36,360
insulting or abusive, which is 
intended to or likely to start 

6
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,320
racial hatred. 
So if you retweet that, then 

7
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,320
you're republishing that and 
then potentially you're 

8
00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,480
committing that offence. 
And we do have dedicated police 

9
00:00:44,480 --> 00:00:47,040
officers who are scouring social
media. 

10
00:00:47,480 --> 00:00:52,040
Their job is to look for this 
material and then follow up with

11
00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,200
identification arrests and so 
forth. 

12
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:59,040
So it's a really, really serious
people might I think they're not

13
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,640
doing anything harmful. 
They are and the consequences 

14
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:09,360
will be visited upon them. 
Thompson now to talk through 

15
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,560
this. 
So Matthew, the last point there

16
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,960
is crucial, isn't it? 
Some people might be sharing 

17
00:01:13,960 --> 00:01:17,480
simply to warn their friends, 
but it could be considered an 

18
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:19,200
offence because they're 
amplifying. 

19
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,800
This absolutely. 
And that's the key message is 

20
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:24,560
that however you, you know, 
think you're acting innocently 

21
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,280
on social media, whatever 
platform it is, you're just 

22
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,480
sharing something for whatever 
reason that could potentially be

23
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:32,720
a criminal offence. 
And and look it, it's not an 

24
00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:36,040
idle threat either because the 
Crime Prosecution Service were 

25
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,760
keen to point out that they've 
made a number of charges in 

26
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:42,080
relation to stirring up of 
racial hatred online, one of 

27
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:46,000
which this morning was for 
distributing a recording that 

28
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,720
could in intending to stir up 
racial hatred. 

29
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,120
And so they are actually already
bringing charges in relation to 

30
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:54,240
this sort of thing. 
So it's a very, very clear 

31
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:57,800
message based in the harsh 
reality, if you like that, if 

32
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,160
you do this kind of thing, you 
are potentially committing a 

33
00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:01,480
criminal offence. 
There, he said it. 

34
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,560
They've got teams of people 
scouring the Internet looking 

35
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,000
for this sort of thing, and if 
you are in the business of 

36
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,080
sharing or retweeting whatever 
platform it might be, 

37
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,960
potentially criminal material, 
well then you could find 

38
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,560
yourself prosecuted. 
Yeah, we're going to submit 

39
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,720
Bitcoin live, the most watched 
daily Bitcoin live show on 

40
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,160
YouTube, Rumble X starting out 
with a cold opening hot. 

41
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:23,480
That's right, ladies and 
gentlemen, in UK, they're 

42
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:27,480
literally locking people up for 
retweeting certain types of 

43
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,160
content. 
Now, of course, I don't think 

44
00:02:29,160 --> 00:02:33,760
anyone likes racism, but history
has shown, I think over the last

45
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:39,520
five years is they'll use noble 
causes in order to obfuscate. 

46
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,320
Like, you know, one of the 
things that we always hear is 

47
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,320
like this and this and that is a
danger to democracy. 

48
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,200
Like, and it starts to sound 
like everything that is against 

49
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,520
the official party line is a 
danger to democracy, right? 

50
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:57,680
So when you say, look, you know,
we we locked him up because his 

51
00:02:57,680 --> 00:03:01,680
tweet was racist versus we 
locked him up because his tweet 

52
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,560
was politically incorrect and it
made the government look bad. 

53
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,080
Like, you know, you're going to 
you're going to approach that 

54
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,280
very differently. 
And this is something also to 

55
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:13,160
that we've been talking about 
many, many times on the show for

56
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,680
the last couple of months. 
Like I've been saying, this is 

57
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,960
the great disintermediation. 
The Internet has allowed mass 

58
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,560
scale peer-to-peer 
communications via social media.

59
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:26,520
And it's taken a lot of the 
power away from the legacy media

60
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,800
outlets. 
And those are the outlets that 

61
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,520
the government used to be able 
to control. 

62
00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,320
Naimbu Kelly wrote this amazing 
piece for Bitcoin magazine. 

63
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:36,440
We quote it all the time. 
It's called don't drink the 

64
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,480
elites Kool-aid. 
And in that piece, he said their

65
00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:42,400
most important weapon is their 
control on truth. 

66
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:46,680
I mean, we we've been saying it 
guys like Opti, we don't really 

67
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,360
do the mean we we do the meme 
review, but not as much not as 

68
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:52,160
often anymore. 
But one of the things that Opti 

69
00:03:52,160 --> 00:03:56,880
says there is, you know, if 
tweets are bullets, memes are 

70
00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:00,080
artillery in this information 
warfare on the battlegrounds of 

71
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,320
the Internet. 
And there you go, like, people 

72
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,600
are literally, you know, getting
locked up for retweeting things 

73
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:10,400
that aren't politically 
acceptable by, you know, the 

74
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:14,440
current regime in the UK, which 
is just, it's so crazy to say 

75
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,760
that. 
And it also makes me really 

76
00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,320
thankful because here in the US,
of course, you're protected by 

77
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:22,960
the 1st Amendment. 
So unless you're like, directly 

78
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,520
calling out for violence, you 
know, your speech is much more 

79
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:28,920
protected than it is in the 
United Kingdom. 

80
00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:34,920
So, yeah, I mean, pretty, pretty
crazy if if they're not OK with 

81
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:38,400
you speaking freely, what makes 
you think they're going to be OK

82
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,680
with you transacting freely? 
Like these are also the same 

83
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:43,760
people that want you to trust 
them with the central bank 

84
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:45,640
digital currency. 
They can't even help themselves 

85
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,600
with information. 
Could you imagine the power 

86
00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:51,760
they're going to have with 
something like money and, you 

87
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,040
know, being able to influence 
certain types of behavior? 

88
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,680
So pretty crazy. 
We're going to talk about that 

89
00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:59,880
today. 
But also the breaking news that 

90
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:03,080
I want to focus on is it's 
almost as if maybe the 

91
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:06,120
Democratic Party was watching 
simply Bitcoin because we did go

92
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,480
hard in the paint yesterday. 
I'm going to bring up Opti. 

93
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,080
We go hard in the paint and I, I
don't want to say it's a 

94
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:15,160
coincidence, but it sure does 
feel like a coincidence that, 

95
00:05:15,200 --> 00:05:19,080
you know, after yesterday, Opti 
and I went pretty hard. 

96
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:24,200
You know, literally the morning 
of the IT came out on Fox 

97
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:25,720
Business or maybe late last 
night. 

98
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,360
No, it was this morning. 
They basically made an 

99
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:32,520
announcement that you know, the,
the Biden, sorry, the the Harris

100
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:38,000
campaign is reaching out to the 
so-called crypto industry in 

101
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,440
order to talk with the industry.
Now the we've heard this 

102
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,120
multiple times over the last 
month or two. 

103
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,440
A we've been we're sticking to 
our message, which is like talk 

104
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,600
is cheap, action is expensive. 
The Biden administration 

105
00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:53,520
currently has the executive 
power to free Ross. 

106
00:05:53,840 --> 00:05:57,040
So go show a gesture of 
goodwill. 

107
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,160
Like you can do it right now, 
right? 

108
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,240
You don't have to wait for an 
election. 

109
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,560
You can do it right now. 
You have the power to do so. 

110
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,720
And again, if you pay attention 
to their actions, and this is 

111
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,760
actual just breaking news. 
It broke about 30 minutes ago. 

112
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,080
It seems like the federal 
government or branches of the 

113
00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:18,400
federal government are still 
going after banks that are 

114
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,800
dealing with Bitcoin and crypto 
in the United States. 

115
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,800
So it seems like Operation Choke
point O is still happening and 

116
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,200
they want the best of both 
worlds. 

117
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:30,080
They want the votes, but they 
don't want to put up or shut up.

118
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,080
So, you know, I'm sticking to 
what I said yesterday. 

119
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,840
It's just, you know, there's 
what what's the saying, Opti? 

120
00:06:35,840 --> 00:06:38,440
There's no conspiracies, but 
there's also no coincidences. 

121
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,160
I'm not saying they're watching 
simply, but that was a big 

122
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:43,960
coincidence bro. 
Opti, what's your talk? 

123
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:47,000
I don't think it's, yeah, you're
giving us a little too much 

124
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:48,640
credit here. 
I don't think it's them watching

125
00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:51,440
simply Bitcoin. 
I think it's just a clear 

126
00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:55,560
response to the fact that the 
Republican Party is going full 

127
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,000
in. 
Are you saying that there is 

128
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,040
one? 
Democratic staffer that 

129
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,480
potentially watches our show. 
At this point, I wouldn't be 

130
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,560
surprised. 
In their lives yo, like they're 

131
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:08,760
the bitcoiners are upset man. 
Wouldn't be surprised if they 

132
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:12,360
were. 
But on that note, This is why I 

133
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,240
am so happy to be an American 
because I am pretty sure that 

134
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,240
all of my Twitter or social 
media accounts would have fully 

135
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,520
gotten nuke by now and I 
wouldn't be on the show. 

136
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:24,000
So as I tweeted this morning, 
you know, let's continue to make

137
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:28,040
America not UK again. 
So let's double down on on this 

138
00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:31,680
ideals that This is why we left 
the UK in the 1st place is so 

139
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,720
that we can have free speech 
and, and we can talk about 

140
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,160
things. 
And you know, my view on free 

141
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:41,560
speech is like, let's, let's 
have all the conversations 

142
00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,280
happening so that we can 
actually see who the dumb people

143
00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:45,960
are. 
Like, you don't know what's 

144
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,960
actually going on if you have to
censor information. 

145
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,360
And I think it's very powerful 
to let people have these 

146
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:56,200
conversations and let let ideas 
be exposed, because then you can

147
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:59,360
clearly see where people stand. 
And, and if you hide the hide 

148
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:03,640
the conversations, then it's 
literally like Big Brother 1984.

149
00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,520
Stuff like this is where we are 
right now, full totalitarian 

150
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:11,080
dystopian future that was a 
warning of where not to go. 

151
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,040
And yet, but here we are right 
now, it's just it's absolutely 

152
00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:15,560
incredible that this is where we
are. 

153
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,400
And I mean, I, I said it this 
week, Nico, I said it once. 

154
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:20,400
You know what was the meme? 
I always butcher the meme. 

155
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:24,160
But like born too early to see 
the moon landing, but born just 

156
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:27,320
in time to be, you know, a a 
digital freedom fighter on the 

157
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:28,920
Internet. 
So here we are. 

158
00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:30,440
Can't. 
Be a tick tocker but could be a 

159
00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:32,840
YouTube. 
Yeah, exactly, exactly. 

160
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,840
Can't be a tick tocker, but can 
be a freedom money advocate. 

161
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:39,760
So incredible, incredible stuff.
Very interesting in, in the 

162
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,919
worst way possible of what's 
going on in the UK. 

163
00:08:42,919 --> 00:08:46,600
It's just, man, it's, it's 
terrifying that obviously the UK

164
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:50,320
usually leads in response to, 
you know, where the progressives

165
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:53,040
are going and man, it's, it's 
not looking good for the UK. 

166
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,720
Absolutely 100% agree with you 
anyways, we got our boy Tony 

167
00:08:56,720 --> 00:09:00,480
from the Bitcoin way Bitcoin way
is a sponsor of simply Bitcoin 

168
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:04,280
original shout out Rustin and we
always enjoy having Tony on the 

169
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:05,120
show. 
How you doing man? 

170
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:06,800
I'm. 
Great man, how are you? 

171
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,040
Thank you for having me again. 
Good. 

172
00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:13,120
I'm I'm excited, I'm excited. 
You guys just dropped a new 

173
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:16,240
commercial earlier on today. 
We're gonna play it for you 

174
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:17,760
guys. 
It's very well done. 

175
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,720
You guys did an incredible job 
with the production and we're 

176
00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,200
gonna talk about Bitcoin way cuz
it's one of the things that we 

177
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,160
get in the comments from you 
guys all the time. 

178
00:09:25,160 --> 00:09:28,120
It's like you guys either have 
questions about hardware wallets

179
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:31,920
or how to take self custody or 
how these how to do these things

180
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:35,680
which seem difficult at first 
because you've been used to 

181
00:09:35,680 --> 00:09:37,960
outsourcing the personal 
responsibility of the storage of

182
00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,080
your wealth to a third party 
like a bank. 

183
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,800
So self custody could seem a 
little bit radical, but I 

184
00:09:42,800 --> 00:09:45,600
promise you once you learn it, 
you'd be like, how did I do? 

185
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:47,920
How did I even trust the bank in
the 1st place? 

186
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,960
Like that is crazy. 
So that's what the guys over a 

187
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:54,480
Bitcoin way are for. 
They're your personal Bitcoin IT

188
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,800
team and they'll walk you 
through any type of your 

189
00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,000
personal Bitcoin setup and 
they'll hold your hand through 

190
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:02,880
the process. 
So anyways, it's going to be a 

191
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:05,600
great show guys, lots to unpack.
Stay tuned. 

192
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:08,880
Before we get to the numbers, I 
do give a shout out to our lead 

193
00:10:08,880 --> 00:10:10,840

206
00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:53,000
There we go let's try that one 
more time and flick a coin into 

207
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:57,560

212
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,320

213
00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:18,560
If you use promo code simply BTC
when signing up, you get 3 

214
00:11:18,560 --> 00:11:21,240
tosses into the Bitcoin wishing 
well. 

215
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:22,960
All right everybody, let's hit 
the numbers. 

216
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:29,480
The Bitcoin numbers. 
So you want to maintain the 

217
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,840
relationship that you have with 
your grandchildren, right? 

218
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,680
You want to maintain that you 
don't want, you don't want to 

219
00:11:34,680 --> 00:11:37,160
lose that relationship. 
The way that you keep that 

220
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,280
relationship is by properly 
securing your generational 

221
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:43,920
wealth and not writing down your
seed phrase on paper. 

222
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,600
You got to stamp it into 
titanium. 

223
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,400
You got a proof of work, your 
seed frayed storage. 

224
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,160
And this is exactly what the 
stamp seed kit is for. 

225
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:57,520
It's a professional metal 
stamping tool kit where they 

226
00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:00,200
bring you a hammer. 
They have these little stamps 

227
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:04,680
and you stamp the seed into a 
plate of titanium. 

228
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:08,840
That's right titanium it's like 
waterproof, it's fireproof. 

229
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,360
It's all these things proof it's
one of the most strongest metals

230
00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,600
on planet earth. 
You only have to buy the kit 

231
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,880
once and then you can buy as 
many kits as many plates as you 

232
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,360
need. 
They have holes on the side the 

233
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,840
the the stamp seeds, so you can 
mount it into a wall or under a 

234
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,280
desk covering plates are coming 
soon. 

235
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,960
No loose pieces more pieces 
equals more points of failure. 

236
00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:33,560
It's just one solid strong piece
of titanium and you can use

00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,000
In the grand scheme of things, 
we are just getting started 

247
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,560
Anyways. 
Not only Burnell continues to do

248
00:13:28,560 --> 00:13:32,600
the rounds on legacy media and 
she's been doing an incredible 

249
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,240
job. 
Here she is again on Fox 

250
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:36,720
Business. 
Fox Business, I got to, I got to

251
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,520
give them credit that that 
Channel has been very positive. 

252
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:44,040
Just the, the, the coverage that
they've, they've done on us or 

253
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,960
our industry better said it's, 
it's been quite positive. 

254
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:51,000
And of course, Natalie's a great
voice and a great representation

255
00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,520
of our movement. 
And of course, she has that 

256
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,200
legacy media training as well. 
So she's able to say a lot of 

257
00:13:57,200 --> 00:13:59,200
information in a very condensed 
fashion. 

258
00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,760
Anyways, already, everybody, 
let's play the clips about two 

259
00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,880
minutes. 
So the, the comeback in, in, in 

260
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:08,240
Bitcoin and and a theory and 
some of these others is 

261
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:11,120
indicative of of maybe something
that might have more staying 

262
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:12,160
power. 
But it's only a day. 

263
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,160
Let's go to Natalie. 
Natalie Brunell. 

264
00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:16,760
If she is the coin. 
Store's podcast host Natalie 

265
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,800
should I believe today. 
Or yesterday when it comes to 

266
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:25,040
some of these crypto plays. 
Hi, Neil, Great to see you. 

267
00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:28,160
Well, you know, Bitcoin, it's a 
great day to buy every day. 

268
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:30,600
And there's a saying I think of 
during times of panic, and that 

269
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,320
is a genius is the man who can 
do the average thing when 

270
00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,800
everyone else around him is 
losing his mind. 

271
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,280
And the genius thing is just a 
dollar cost average into 

272
00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,000
Bitcoin. 
Ignore the noise. 

273
00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:44,760
Bitcoin was $25,000 last August.
So we're zoom out and remember 

274
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,720
that markets go up, but they can
also come back down. 

275
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:51,840
And the corrections are really 
great buying options now given 

276
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:55,200
the market volatility, I thought
I would have seen, you know, the

277
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,400
Bitcoin and some of these other 
plays hold their own as an 

278
00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:00,960
alternative. 
Gold typically has been the 

279
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:02,640
hedge of late. 
It's down a little bit today, 

280
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,960
but it's in and out of these all
time highs of close to $2500 the

281
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,400
ounce. 
Is it a battle between gold and 

282
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:09,800
Bitcoin and some of these 
others? 

283
00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:14,240
I think Bitcoin improves upon 
the properties of gold, and 

284
00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:15,760
Bitcoin is really digital 
capital. 

285
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:19,720
You can trade it at the speed of
light globally, 24/7, without 

286
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,320
permission from any 
intermediary. 

287
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,520
So when people want to express 
sentiment on market shifts or 

288
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:28,160
geopolitical risks overnight or 
on a weekend, there are very few

289
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:30,000
things that they can sell 
instantly. 

290
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,120
And so think about what that 
says about our 21st century 

291
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:34,960
system. 
Neil and I credit Michael Saylor

292
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,720
for pointing this out too. 
We are interconnected through 

293
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:42,440
digital technology and yet we're
crawling on 20th century rails 

294
00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,520
and schedules when it comes to 
moving capital. 

295
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:49,360
Securities trade Monday through 
Friday, 9:30 to 4:00, so 135 

296
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:51,880
hours of the week. 
You can't move capital. 

297
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,280
Everything is slow and expensive
and you have to get permission 

298
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,200
from your bank, which has to get
permission from the central bank

299
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,960
and what's ultimately an over 
leveraged over financialized, 

300
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:05,200
undercapitalized system. 
And so while many people don't 

301
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,400
understand this yet, Bitcoin is 
digital capital and its 

302
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,760
volatility in times of panic is 
actually a feature, not a bug. 

303
00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:13,720
It shows how liquid and reliable
it is. 

304
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:15,800
Well, you're quite right about 
that. 

305
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:18,880
You can trade a 24/7 now. 
Well, and Natalie does an 

306
00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:21,200
incredible job and also one 
thing that I want to mention as 

307
00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:26,440
well is they kept mentioning 
they kept like lumping in 

308
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:30,480
Bitcoin with the other 
alternative cryptocurrencies and

309
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:32,360
it's not a good comparison, 
right? 

310
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,200
Like Ethereum or Solana or 
whatever. 

311
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:39,160
Like it hurts me saying them, 
but you know, all these 

312
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:43,200
alternatives, like they might be
up dollar terms, but if you 

313
00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:46,440
compare which should be the only
a pair that you should actually 

314
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:49,800
care about, if you compare any 
of these alternatives to their 

315
00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:54,160
Bitcoin pairs, they're still 
down from like 2021, like they 

316
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,480
haven't recovered, right? 
So always pay attention to the 

317
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,960
Bitcoin pairs, not the dollar 
pairs because you should be 

318
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,440
measuring your net worth in 
Bitcoin. 

319
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,280
You should be measuring your net
worth in dollars. 

320
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:09,520
So anyways, all that being said,
the reason I'm bringing that up 

321
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,280
is because I think it's a little
bit of a disservice. 

322
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,880
Like if your legacy media, 
you're essentially equating 

323
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:19,240
Bitcoin with all these others. 
And, and then not to mention the

324
00:17:19,240 --> 00:17:21,599
graphics that they're pulling 
up, you know, they're pulling up

325
00:17:21,599 --> 00:17:23,040
like Ethereum and they're 
pulling whatever. 

326
00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,400
Like one doesn't equal the 
other, right? 

327
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,600
Bitcoin is unique. 
Bitcoin is completely different 

328
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:32,600
than all these other cryptos, 
Bitcoins, the only one that is 

329
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:35,120
truly decentralized. 
You can't manipulate the rules 

330
00:17:35,120 --> 00:17:38,800
to benefit yourself, but you 
can't do that in any of the 

331
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:40,840
other. 
The other cryptos don't offer 

332
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:42,800
that. 
So a lot of people are 

333
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:45,080
attracted, attracted to the 
other ones because of the short 

334
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:49,440
term volatility. 
In my experience just, and I've 

335
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:54,120
been maybe doing this for a 
little bit, you tend to end up 

336
00:17:54,120 --> 00:17:56,720
with more Bitcoin if you just 
stay humble, stack stats and 

337
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,280
stay solvent. 
Then if you try to play the the 

338
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:04,160
trading game, not to say that 
you can't succeed, but just a 

339
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:08,920
general trend is I've seen more 
people wreck themselves then, 

340
00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,680
you know, actually pull off 
successful trades and stuff. 

341
00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:15,360
So anyways, so yeah, I mean, 
definitely heading the right 

342
00:18:15,360 --> 00:18:17,400
direction. 
Also, another comment that I 

343
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:21,160
saw, which I think is I think it
was David Bailey that said this 

344
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,960
because I think a lot of people 
were exactly lightning goats 

345
00:18:24,960 --> 00:18:26,680
pointed it out. 
That was exactly what was about 

346
00:18:26,680 --> 00:18:30,600
to say. 
Do you remember the 1st day or 

347
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:35,080
the first week or the first six 
months that you got into 

348
00:18:35,120 --> 00:18:37,840
Bitcoin? 
You were probably in the depths 

349
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:41,360
of hell of the the most shitty 
of the shit coins that you can 

350
00:18:41,360 --> 00:18:45,560
ever imagined. 
And only through calling through

351
00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:49,640
those piles of shit coinery do 
you actually realize that 

352
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:53,480
Bitcoin is different. 
Like expecting someone to just 

353
00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:56,800
get it on the first day is 
incredibly naive. 

354
00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,600
And that applies to legacy media
and that applies to Trump. 

355
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:03,120
And that applies to Trump's 
family. 

356
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:07,960
Like, it, it just like thinking 
that you don't like maybe in 

357
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:11,480
five years, if they're still, 
you know, like trying to do 

358
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:14,480
that, then maybe let's have a 
different discussion about it. 

359
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,160
But they just got like, they 
just got into the game. 

360
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,400
So did legacy media. 
Like, they don't know any 

361
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:21,480
better. 
Like for them, like Bitcoin and 

362
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,800
Ethereum are exactly the same. 
It's just different branding, 

363
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:25,920
right? 
Anyways, I want to pass it on to

364
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:27,560
Opti. 
What do you think? 

365
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:33,920
Yeah, so First off, I do want to
talk about the the anchor. 

366
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,760
I I don't know his name, didn't 
catch his name, but it's funny 

367
00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:39,880
how he kind of framed it. 
It's like, OK, you know, Bitcoin

368
00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:45,400
dumped and it it rebounded. 
And this just, you know, goes to

369
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,760
show and he's questioning the 
staying power of Bitcoin. 

370
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,640
Whereas all of us in Bitcoin 
that have been here for, you 

371
00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:54,360
know, longer than a year or so 
and have delved into Bitcoin, 

372
00:19:54,360 --> 00:19:57,400
understand that like Bitcoin is 
the new stability in the 

373
00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,760
financial world. 
And you can count all of the 

374
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:03,360
what, like 200 obituaries about 
Bitcoin dying and then it always

375
00:20:03,360 --> 00:20:06,720
comes back from the grave or in 
in mean terms, you know, there's

376
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:10,320
that like classic Undertaker 
Bitcoin meme where he like comes

377
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,160
out of the coffin and it rises 
again. 

378
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,720
It's like, this is what happens 
with Bitcoin. 

379
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,120
It always seems like it's dead 
to the person that doesn't 

380
00:20:17,120 --> 00:20:20,040
understand Bitcoin. 
And then if for some reason, you

381
00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,200
know, Bitcoin is always able to 
come back from the dead and. 

382
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,240
It reaches new all time highs 
and this is just how you can 

383
00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:29,640
tell, like to the point that you
and lightning goats made that 

384
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:33,440
legacy media or even the new 
figures or new people coming 

385
00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,080
into Bitcoin don't fully 
understand Bitcoin yet. 

386
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,360
And this might be one of those 
things that you kind of only 

387
00:20:38,360 --> 00:20:41,640
learn through experience as when
you come in new to Bitcoin. 

388
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,360
I remember when I got into 
Bitcoin 2017 and we had that 

389
00:20:45,360 --> 00:20:47,920
2017 blow off top. 
I was still learning what 

390
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:52,000
Bitcoin was when it when it 
basically blew up in 2018, or 

391
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,400
rather the end of 2017, early 
2018. 

392
00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:58,280
And that's when I was doubling 
down and my understanding of 

393
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,800
what Bitcoin is. 
And so you kind of have to learn

394
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,760
these lessons through experience
or you know, you can be wise and

395
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:07,440
listen to other Bitcoiners that 
have been around, hence hence 

396
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,480
simply Bitcoin. 
But as Natalie Burnell was 

397
00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:14,280
saying, and as the classic trope
goes, you want to buy assets 

398
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:15,560
when there's blood on the 
streets. 

399
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:19,280
And it still blows my mind. 
And I don't understand people 

400
00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:21,920
that sell their Bitcoin in the 
face of financial uncertainty 

401
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,560
when Bitcoin is like the most 
certain thing period. 

402
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:27,360
Like full stop. 
Bitcoin monetary policy is the 

403
00:21:27,360 --> 00:21:29,880
the only stable monetary policy 
in the world. 

404
00:21:30,120 --> 00:21:34,280
Bitcoin runs 24/7 365. 
It's the most liquid market 

405
00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,240
period. 
It's the only free market left 

406
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,400
in the world. 
And it's just, it's really, 

407
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,360
yeah, I think it really 
highlights the fact that most 

408
00:21:42,360 --> 00:21:45,640
people still don't fundamentally
understand what they hold when 

409
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,920
they hold Bitcoin is because 
they're, you know, as much as we

410
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:52,720
get bad raps, for all of us 
Bitcoiners being speculators, we

411
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,280
would all argue that we're just 
saving in something that cannot 

412
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:56,800
be debased. 
You know, we just want to store 

413
00:21:56,800 --> 00:22:00,360
our value and transact freely. 
But when new entrants come into 

414
00:22:00,360 --> 00:22:02,720
Bitcoin, you can tell that 
they're basically here just to 

415
00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:05,400
speculate on the price. 
Or as the other Bitcoin meme 

416
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:07,440
goes, you know, you come for the
money and you stay to fix the 

417
00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:09,600
money or you come for the money,
you come for the gains. 

418
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,920
But you stay for the revolution 
and you're starting to see that 

419
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,640
people are learning about 
Bitcoin slowly but surely. 

420
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:19,280
But again, most people don't 
have the time or rather don't 

421
00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,120
have the pain point that most of
us Bitcoiners have found in our 

422
00:22:22,120 --> 00:22:26,040
own lives that they they want 
to, you know, do hours of 

423
00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:27,880
research into understanding 
Bitcoin. 

424
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,680
They're just like, OK, I'm going
to throw some money at it and 

425
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:32,760
hopefully it goes up and I'm 
going to forget about it and 

426
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,280
I'll be good in the future. 
Whereas like, you know, we have 

427
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:36,720
Tony on today from Bitcoin. 
Wait. 

428
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:40,080
It's like there is a learning 
curve to understanding the 

429
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,400
Bitcoin market, the best Bitcoin
practices. 

430
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,400
And it's kind of just like how 
it was when we all got the 

431
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:47,760
Internet in the first time. 
Like there is a learning curve 

432
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,400
to understanding how to use new 
technology. 

433
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,520
And you're seeing that people 
are, you know, slowly but surely

434
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,880
waking up to this fact that, 
hey, it's not as easy as just, 

435
00:22:56,880 --> 00:22:59,480
you know, throwing your money at
Bitcoin and leaving it on 

436
00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,720
Charles Schwab accounts or 
whatever the equivalents are and

437
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,040
you're going to be good. 
It's like, no, there is a 

438
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:07,520
certain learning curve. 
There is a certain amount of 

439
00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:12,680
experience and behavioral change
that will become a part of your 

440
00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:15,120
Bitcoin journey. 
And all of us Bitcoiners that 

441
00:23:15,120 --> 00:23:17,640
have been here for a long time, 
you know, looking backwards, 

442
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:20,200
it's very easy for us to be 
like, oh, these people are 

443
00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:21,880
idiots. 
They don't understand Bitcoin. 

444
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,200
Like we understand, you know, 
get on our high horse and stuff.

445
00:23:24,560 --> 00:23:27,800
But hey, I'm pretty sure most of
us went through our own shit 

446
00:23:27,800 --> 00:23:31,280
coin phase and then we realized 
that, hey, this isn't the get 

447
00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:32,720
rich quick scheme. 
I thought it was. 

448
00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:35,360
Maybe I need to figure out what 
Bitcoin is because I'm getting 

449
00:23:35,360 --> 00:23:37,920
poorer and that's what everyone 
else is feeling. 

450
00:23:37,920 --> 00:23:39,800
You know, the ultimate shit coin
is the dollar. 

451
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,560
And yet people just still think 
that there's stability in the 

452
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,360
Fiat currencies because $1.00 
equals $1.00. 

453
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,360
Little do they understand that 
like This is why life is getting

454
00:23:49,360 --> 00:23:51,680
harder is because your dollar is
losing its purchasing power. 

455
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:55,160
So there is a learning curve and
a certain understanding that you

456
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:59,080
have to get through to finally 
become, you know, Bitcoin maxi. 

457
00:23:59,360 --> 00:24:00,920
But it does come with 
experience. 

458
00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,440
So I think in time we're going 
to get to a point where they 

459
00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,920
they're, you know, kudos to like
Joe Kernan and what's his name, 

460
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:10,120
Charles Payne, who are like 
already full blown Bitcoin Maxis

461
00:24:10,120 --> 00:24:11,600
on Fox News. 
But we're going to get to a 

462
00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,840
point where everyone else 
realizing what the real game is,

463
00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:17,320
which is holding Bitcoin for as 
long as possible. 

464
00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,040
Absolutely, Tony. 
What do you think, man? 

465
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,960
Yeah, man, you, you guys summed 
it up pretty, pretty nicely. 

466
00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:27,320
People that come, you know, from
places of privilege, actually, 

467
00:24:27,320 --> 00:24:30,000
you know, it's, it plays against
them, you know, when they get 

468
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,080
into something like Bitcoin 
because you know, they're 

469
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,960
coming, you know, they're coming
with the idea that this is just 

470
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:38,520
another speculative asset, 
another stock, another 

471
00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,280
investment, you know, that I'm 
going to get into and hopefully 

472
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,480
become, you know, very rich, you
know, dollar rich or euro rich. 

473
00:24:44,840 --> 00:24:48,760
And ultimately, you know, they 
don't understand money to begin 

474
00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,640
with, which is, you know, the, 
the biggest differentiator 

475
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,760
between a, a real bitcoiner and 
someone just coming in for the 

476
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,640
ride. 
And so when things were the 

477
00:24:56,640 --> 00:24:58,760
number goes up, you know, they 
get all horny, everybody's 

478
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:00,240
happy. 
And then when it comes crashing 

479
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:04,440
down, everybody calls it a scam.
And, you know, all sorts of all 

480
00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,160
sorts of rubber starts spewing 
out. 

481
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:11,920
So I, I think this is like a big
catalyst for those, you know, in

482
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,960
North America, in the, in the EU
that come from places of 

483
00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:16,840
comfort. 
Still they haven't felt the pain

484
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:21,280
versus those that are coming 
from places of destruction. 

485
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,840
You know, like how I where, 
where I came from and what led 

486
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:27,240
me to Bitcoin. 
And when you come, you know, 

487
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,560
there's a very different 
narrative that's that forms in 

488
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,400
your head when you're coming 
from darkness, then when you're 

489
00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:35,760
coming just to have to, to have 
a good time. 

490
00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:40,520
So you need to fundamentally 
understand, you know, that the 

491
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:44,160
world that you live in is 99% of
fabrication. 

492
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,400
It's a lie that you've been fed 
since the day you were born. 

493
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:51,760
And until you accept that, it's 
going to be very difficult to 

494
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:56,360
focus on something like Bitcoin 
beyond the number go up 

495
00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,600
phenomenon. 
And but it's only a matter of 

496
00:25:59,600 --> 00:26:02,720
time because we've, we've come 
to a point, you know, in the, in

497
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:05,800
this world where the, the 
corruption and the 

498
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:09,880
inefficiencies and the bad 
decisions have gone so extreme 

499
00:26:10,200 --> 00:26:11,680
that everything is falling 
apart. 

500
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,480
You know, I mean, you see the 
hatred, the division, the 

501
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,760
situation in the UK, the 
dystopian nightmare that, you 

502
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:22,000
know, that has manifested into 
the wars and all that. 

503
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:25,760
All of these are intended 
distractions, you know, to to 

504
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:29,640
shift your attention away from 
what's truly going on is that 

505
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:34,280
the system is falling apart. 
And so the powers that be, they 

506
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:39,080
need this in order to continue 
playing on the ignorance and the

507
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:43,880
fear of the masses in order to 
hopefully maintain their, you 

508
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:47,640
know, their reign of power to 
guide them where they want them 

509
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:49,960
to go next. 
You know, which is somewhere you

510
00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:53,600
definitely don't want to be 
because it is 100% not in your 

511
00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:56,680
best interest. 
So Bitcoin for the first time 

512
00:26:56,680 --> 00:27:01,600
in, you know, in humanity is the
option that we have to exit the 

513
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:05,120
system to tell the powers that 
be, we don't want you anymore. 

514
00:27:05,120 --> 00:27:07,840
We don't need you anymore. 
We want nothing to do with you. 

515
00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:11,800
And now we have the means to 
stand up on our own, live our 

516
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:15,880
lives without ever having to 
look back and even acknowledge 

517
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:19,280
your presence. 
So in about 50 years, you know, 

518
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:23,320
people born at that time, in my 
opinion, we'll not even know 

519
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:25,520
what a bank is, thankfully lucky
for them. 

520
00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,400
And those that study history, 
you know, and they, they see 

521
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:32,200
what we went through. 
They might call us crazy. 

522
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,720
You know, what kind of what kind
of fools, you know, who believe 

523
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:39,640
that, you know, worthless toilet
paper controlled and created by 

524
00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:41,920
a bunch of thieves actually has 
value. 

525
00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,000
You know, like, I mean, there's 
a lot of that. 

526
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,640
Absolutely. 
I I, I 100% agree with you. 

527
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:52,480
I think I think it we're going 
to look back on these moments in

528
00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,200
history and we're just going to 
be like, can't believe we used 

529
00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,000
paper as money. 
I even look at Fiat currency 

530
00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,840
today and I'm like, this is so 
insane that, you know, society 

531
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:03,680
just look at it like This is 
Money. 

532
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:09,160
It's just like a piece of paper.
Yeah, yeah, I'm, I'm very, very 

533
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,200
optimistic on the future. 
I think it's going to be a much 

534
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:14,680
that the world's going to be a 
much better place on a on a 

535
00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,880
Bitcoin standard. 
Anyways, I do apologize for Opti

536
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,160
blocking people in the chat. 
Hey, hey, hey, hey. 

537
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:21,960
Let's not. 
You didn't mean to do that. 

538
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,160
That was my accident. 
I unblocked it already. 

539
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,600

00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,760

562
00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:42,160
Check out the Passport link link
in the show notes below to learn

563
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:43,640
more. 
Hi everybody. 

564
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:51,880
I do, I just want people to I 
want people to to keep their eye

565
00:29:51,880 --> 00:29:56,200
on the prize and the eye on the 
prize is the separation of money

566
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:58,480
and state. 
Like that's essentially what we 

567
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,720
want at the end. 
We really believe the world's 

568
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:02,960
going to be a much better place 
for it. 

569
00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:08,400
And like I think David Bailey, 
David Bailey's the CEO of 

570
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:12,600
Bitcoin magazine, BTC Inc and 
the Bitcoin conference and is 

571
00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,800
being anti Bitcoin is like being
anti Internet. 

572
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,960
It's not a viable position. 
This is why you should have No 

573
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,240
Fear that Bitcoin will become 
nonpartisan. 

574
00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:23,880
We just need to defeat the 
Luddites first and the message 

575
00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,240
will be heard. 
I think it's a lot easier said 

576
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:29,400
than done. 
I think there's elements of the 

577
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:31,360
administrative state. 
Some people call it the deep 

578
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:32,640
state. 
Essentially, it's not 

579
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:34,960
conspiracy, it's just the 
unelected bureaucrats that 

580
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:38,720
remain in in and they keep their
jobs regardless of what 

581
00:30:38,720 --> 00:30:40,560
political candidate is in 
office. 

582
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:43,160
Therefore, there's really no 
lot, there's not a lot of 

583
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:47,280
accountability there, right? 
So anyways, they get a 

584
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:51,120
tremendous amount of power from 
money printing, right? 

585
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,840
It's why I believe all these 
governments all around the world

586
00:30:53,840 --> 00:30:56,120
are so huge. 
It's because they have this 

587
00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,400
unique ability of creating money
for free that everyone else has 

588
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,120
to work for. 
And I think that system, and 

589
00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:05,920
again, not conspiracy, not 
conspiracy theory or anything, 

590
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,360
that system is going to at least
fight to protect itself. 

591
00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,160
It's not naive to say, it's not 
naive to think that like, and do

592
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:16,120
you blame them? 
Like, you know, that it's like, 

593
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:17,360
you know, they probably see 
Bitcoin. 

594
00:31:17,360 --> 00:31:19,280
They're like, this is going to 
replace us. 

595
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,680
What are you talking about? 
The people need central banking.

596
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,960
So anyways, so that's what I 
want to talk about today, 

597
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:31,160
because what's really 
interesting is that because of 

598
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:35,640
the political environment in the
US and because it's an election 

599
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:41,040
year and and honestly because 
actions of Elizabeth Warren 

600
00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,840
really a turn off alarm and the 
what's playing that's an ad 

601
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:51,280
because of the the options of 
Elizabeth Warren and elements of

602
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:55,360
the Democratic Party, they 
essentially created a political 

603
00:31:55,360 --> 00:31:59,760
opportunity for their opposing 
candidates because like I was 

604
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:01,280
saying it, this is an election 
year. 

605
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:06,080
So the, you know, Bitcoin and 
crypto community is basically 

606
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:10,520
saying like they're going after 
us, the Republican Party and RFK

607
00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:13,760
is like, oh, OK, you know, 
we'll, we'll stand up and we'll 

608
00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:18,040
protect Bitcoin and crypto. 
So that's what happened during 

609
00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:20,360
the Nashville conference. 
I think it was monumental. 

610
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:23,640
It was a historic milestone for 
our industry, for our movement 

611
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:25,440
here in the in the United States
at least. 

612
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:28,080
And I think it was very positive
overall. 

613
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,040
But that creates a situation. 
What is that situation? 

614
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:35,160
That situation is that Bitcoin 
is not a left and right thing. 

615
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:37,840
Bitcoin is not a Democrat, 
Republican thing. 

616
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,640
Bitcoin is for everyone. 
Bitcoin is anti tyranny. 

617
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:45,720
So if you're a tyrant, Bitcoin 
exposes you first and it 

618
00:32:45,720 --> 00:32:48,480
protects individuals from your 
shenanigans. 

619
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:51,920
So if you're a tyrant, you want 
to control people, you're not 

620
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:53,320
really going to like Bitcoin 
very much. 

621
00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:55,240
That's really the way that I see
it. 

622
00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:58,360
However, if you do live in a 
quote, UN quote democratic 

623
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:03,240
society, your voter base or 
percentage of your voter base, a

624
00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,280
notable percentage is going to 
dislike that. 

625
00:33:06,760 --> 00:33:09,680
And I'll even add to that now, 
not only is it a notable 

626
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:14,480
percentage of your voter base, 
now the industry is becoming a 

627
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:18,760
notable donor base as well. 
And it's actual donors that get 

628
00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:21,480
politicians elected in the US. 
You know, as much as they say 

629
00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:24,000
it's the people, yes, it's the 
people, but it's really the 

630
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:25,880
money behind the the the 
campaigns. 

631
00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:29,960
So and all of a sudden the 
Democrats don't want to lose out

632
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:33,320
on that those donors and they 
don't want to lose out on that 

633
00:33:33,320 --> 00:33:36,360
industry. 
The thing is, we don't believe 

634
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,640
you anymore. 
Talk is cheap and we keep seeing

635
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:43,040
this every three weeks or so, 
you see a little heartbeat. 

636
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:47,920
So the latest heartbeat and it 
was is Democrats launched quote 

637
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:52,440
crypto for Harris campaign to 
counter Trump's industry appeal.

638
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:56,400
It goes on to say the Democratic
arm of the cryptocurrency 

639
00:33:56,400 --> 00:34:00,440
industry is determined not to 
let former President Trump run 

640
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:02,920
away with the crypto vote this 
fall. 

641
00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:07,080
Fox Business has learned that a 
new pro Kamala Harris advocacy 

642
00:34:07,080 --> 00:34:11,040
group called Crypto for Harris 
plans to host a virtual town 

643
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:15,040
hall meeting next week with a 
working speaker lineup that 

644
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,239
includes left-leaning 
billionaire entrepreneur and 

645
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:20,760
crypto advocate Mark Cuban, 
Skybridge Capital founder and 

646
00:34:20,760 --> 00:34:24,440
Trump critic Anthony Scaramucci,
and a handful of Democratic 

647
00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:26,080
members of the House of 
Representatives. 

648
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:29,880
Top Democratic Senate leaders 
have also been invited to speak 

649
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:33,080
at next week's virtual town hall
meeting, which is open to the 

650
00:34:33,080 --> 00:34:34,800
public. 
And we'll discuss ways to 

651
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:38,639
support the Harris campaign and 
promote fundraising initiatives.

652
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,360
Crypto for Harris currently 
touts around 50 members, with 

653
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:45,760
its main organizers consisting 
of industry participants and 

654
00:34:45,760 --> 00:34:48,600
policy experts. 
Quote, the United States must 

655
00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,199
continue to be a leader in 
blockchain and crypto, and 

656
00:34:51,199 --> 00:34:53,960
groups like Crypto for Harris 
are working hard to ensure the 

657
00:34:53,960 --> 00:34:57,320
right policies and conversations
take place to ensure that 

658
00:34:57,320 --> 00:35:00,000
outcome. 
The move comes as the race for 

659
00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,680
the White House narrows between 
Trump and Harris, the respective

660
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:06,080
Republican and and Democratic 
nominees. 

661
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:09,840
Trump has a huge head start in 
attracting crypto luminaries to 

662
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:13,360
his campaign amid the regulatory
assault unleashed by the Biden 

663
00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,760
administration, for which Harris
has served as vice president. 

664
00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:19,960
After Biden's withdrawal from 
the race, she is now its 

665
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:22,400
standard bearer in the November 
election. 

666
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:26,680
So this, this article came out 
either today or yesterday and 

667
00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,040
you'd be like, Oh my God, 
they're changing tune. 

668
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:32,160
Like, you know, they're, they're
showing us that they care. 

669
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,480
This is awesome. 
But again, I'm gonna keep 

670
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,480
reiterating what I've been 
telling you guys every single 

671
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:42,640
time we get a little heartbeat, 
which is don't pay attention to 

672
00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,520
what they say, pay attention to 
what they do. 

673
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:50,760
So here's the latest news 
Customers Bank had hit with Fed 

674
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:55,600
enforcement action for digital 
assets, dollar dollar token 

675
00:35:55,600 --> 00:36:02,360
activities, order flags, gaps in
MLKYC and OFAC compliance. 

676
00:36:02,720 --> 00:36:06,320
So this continues Nick Carter 
comments customers with one of 

677
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:12,000
the biggest pro crypto banks out
there fed and FDIC are 

678
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:17,120
systematically dismantling all 
crypto friendly banks one after 

679
00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:20,520
another. 
Here is Caitlin long and Caitlin

680
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:24,600
long is the founder of the 
custodia bank and she was 

681
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:29,840
targeted by the the so-called 
operation choke .2 point O 

682
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:33,360
Caitlin long comments Well, well
isn't it interesting in timing 

683
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,520
that the Fed drops this 
enforcement action on the same 

684
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:41,160
day as Ro Khanna's crypto reset?
It's almost as if they're trying

685
00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:45,600
to send a message, right, that 
like maybe there's an internal 

686
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:48,560
struggle within Democratic 
Party, but hey, I don't got time

687
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,440
for that. 
Like, OK, you guys might be 

688
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:54,120
struggling and stuff. 
But if there's one political 

689
00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:57,200
party that's basically saying 
we'll be pro Bitcoin and then 

690
00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:00,480
there's other one that like it, 
like, you know, they're saying, 

691
00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:03,720
oh, we're pro give us money. 
But at the same time, you know, 

692
00:37:03,720 --> 00:37:05,880
they're metaphorically hitting 
you with a 2 by 4. 

693
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,440
Like, I'm sorry, man, like I 
don't I don't have time for 

694
00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:10,440
that. 
Like you guys have to deal with 

695
00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:14,600
that internally. 
So anyways, it goes on to say 

696
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:17,560
the Fed has a history of timing 
its actions. 

697
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:21,040
Anyone who thinks the timing of 
the Fed dropping the enforcement

698
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:24,520
action during the quote UN quote
crypto reset meeting is purely 

699
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,880
coincidence, I've got a bridge 
to sell you. 

700
00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:31,480
Operation Choke .2 point O is 
still alive and well in DC, 

701
00:37:31,720 --> 00:37:34,440
unfortunately, and the Fed just 
proved that. 

702
00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:39,720
So yeah, this is cheap. 
This right here, this is cheap. 

703
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:42,680
This is cheap talk. 
This this is doesn't count. 

704
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,360
You got to pay attention to 
their actions, right? 

705
00:37:45,360 --> 00:37:49,240
And their actions are they're 
still going after the industry. 

706
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:53,600
If you look behind the door. 
Here's Tyler Winklevoss Tyler 

707
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,360
and Tyler and Cameron were 
actually one of the biggest 

708
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,560
donors to Trump when he went to 
Nashville. 

709
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,960
They threw an again together 
with David Bailey of Bitcoin 

710
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:05,320
magazine. 
So Tyler says Operation choke .2

711
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:08,760
point O is alive and well. 
The Biden Harris administration 

712
00:38:08,760 --> 00:38:12,360
reign of terror continues. 
If this goes unabated for four 

713
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,800
more years, the crypto industry 
in America will be dead. 

714
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,200
Like that is a very strong 
statement. 

715
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,640
I also believe that Gemini uses 
that bank, customers bank. 

716
00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:24,840
I don't know that for sure, but 
I believe that's the case. 

717
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:28,840
Here's Balaji. 
Balaji says the dem scam in VC, 

718
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,080
it's not real until money is 
wired, right? 

719
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,480
That's what I've been saying, 
like don't pay attention to what

720
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:35,120
they say, pay attention to what 
they do. 

721
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,240
And in DC, it's not real until 
Gensler is fired. 

722
00:38:38,240 --> 00:38:40,320
That's why crypto for Harris is 
a scam. 

723
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:44,000
They want crypto votes without 
spending any political capital. 

724
00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:47,960
If the policy shift was real, 
they would immediately fire Gary

725
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,120
Gensler. 
Free roaming storm. 

726
00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:53,560
And in this in an innocent 
developer, repudiate the 

727
00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:57,920
unrealized capital gains tax. 
And number four, stop the SEC 

728
00:38:57,920 --> 00:39:00,240
show trials. 
And that's just the start. 

729
00:39:00,600 --> 00:39:02,560
Obviously, the party can do this
instantly. 

730
00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,720
After all, they just got a 
sitting president to stand down 

731
00:39:05,720 --> 00:39:08,520
by threatening the 25th 
Amendment, pulling his donor 

732
00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:12,280
support and smashing him in the 
press relentlessly. 

733
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:15,320
So Gensler would fall through a 
trapdoor in a second if the 

734
00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:17,000
right people push the right 
buttons. 

735
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:21,440
That's such a great, like, some 
like, summary of essentially 

736
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:25,120
what we've been saying, right? 
Like it's so talk is cheap, 

737
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:29,040
actions are expensive. 
And I just I don't believe them.

738
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,960
I just don't believe them. 
Like you guys want, you want 

739
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:35,040
your cake, you want everything, 
but you don't want to pay for 

740
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:38,240
it. 
So yeah, like I'm still bullish 

741
00:39:38,240 --> 00:39:43,360
on Trump and RFK, not so much 
from like a this Bitcoin need 

742
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,680
these politicians to succeed. 
Not at all. 

743
00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:49,280
But if you are a Bitcoin 
entrepreneur and a Bitcoin owner

744
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,520
in the United States, you 
definitely want these guys to 

745
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:56,040
succeed because just 
unfortunately, like if you want 

746
00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:59,920
to do business, you kind of have
to, there's some things that you

747
00:39:59,920 --> 00:40:03,120
got to have to do. 
And yeah, I think that they can 

748
00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,920
definitely make your life a 
living hell in the US, 

749
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:09,240
especially, especially if they 
win this election again, that 

750
00:40:09,240 --> 00:40:13,160
that'd be that'd be pretty bad 
for the industry in the US. 

751
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:15,960
Now, does that mean that Bitcoin
isn't going to pump or is it 

752
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,520
going to succeed? 
No Bitcoin survived. 

753
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:22,560
Throughout numerous hostile 
legislation. 

754
00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:25,240
So it's not that Bitcoin needs 
politicians to succeed. 

755
00:40:25,240 --> 00:40:27,400
I would say that politicians 
need bitcoins to succeed. 

756
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:29,960
Bitcoins going to win 
regardless. 

757
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:33,320
But like I said, if you're a 
Bitcoin business owner in the 

758
00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:36,520
US, they can make your life 
difficult, which is why I bring 

759
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:38,520
that up. 
Anyways, Opti, what's your take 

760
00:40:38,520 --> 00:40:40,760
on this bro? 
I mean, dude, like such 

761
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:43,840
scammers, man, say this is a 
scam. 

762
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:47,560
They they're so good at the 
media thing like we do. 

763
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:50,200
How many remember the first time
we got really excited in the 

764
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:53,360
segment, like, OK, And the third
time, like, you know, you're 

765
00:40:53,360 --> 00:40:55,640
just like, all right, dude, you 
guys are playing me a fool. 

766
00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:58,600
But they get the press every 
time they get the headline. 

767
00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:01,280
I think that's all they care 
about in my opinion. 

768
00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,360
Like getting that headline. 
They're just like, look guys, 

769
00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:07,160
we're pro crypto too, you know, 
like the what's that meme of 

770
00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:08,640
that old dude with the 
skateboard? 

771
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,120
Hello fellow children. 
Yeah, exactly. 

772
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:14,120
It's like that. 
It's like, hey guys, I'm, I'm a 

773
00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:17,440
bitcoiner also, you know? 
Anyways, what's your take bro? 

774
00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,440
Yeah, well, First off, I do want
to give a hat tip to Balaji. 

775
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:25,000
I think he's a really good 
Twitter account for you guys to 

776
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,360
follow. 
If you're like a toxic Bitcoin 

777
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:30,600
maximus, you know, you, you may 
have some beef with him for, for

778
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:33,040
the stuff you've done in the 
past, but I think he's been very

779
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:36,440
cogent and very on point with a 
lot of the stuff that he's been 

780
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:38,480
tweeting lately. 
So I would highly recommend you 

781
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,200
follow his Twitter account. 
He he does incredible threads 

782
00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:43,760
that are, you know, from a 
vantage point of someone that 

783
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:47,800
knows what's going on from both 
sides of the aisle on that 

784
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,880
point, though, I'm not surprised
that we're seeing this happen. 

785
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:54,000
The the well, actually, before I
go into that, if you do read 

786
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:56,440
that article, though, and you 
look at some of the people that 

787
00:41:56,440 --> 00:41:59,600
they picked to be a part of this
was it crypto for Harris 

788
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:03,440
campaign? 
It is a lot of shit coiners like

789
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:07,840
I one of them is from one of the
there's two advisors that they 

790
00:42:08,000 --> 00:42:10,240
specifically mentioned, one of 
them from Binance and the other 

791
00:42:10,240 --> 00:42:14,560
one's from Ripple. 
So like, am I, am I holding my 

792
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:17,040
breath that something good is 
going to come out of this? 

793
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:22,560
No, all I'm saying is it does 
seem like they are just kind of 

794
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:26,960
trying a little too little too 
late to claw back the, you know,

795
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:31,080
quote UN quote crypto vote and 
persuade the Bitcoin or rather 

796
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:34,160
the crypto industry to embrace 
the Democrat Party. 

797
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:37,280
But like we're saying, you know,
Kamala Harris is basically or 

798
00:42:37,280 --> 00:42:41,000
sorry, someone yelled at me 
yesterday, Kamala Harris for the

799
00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:44,000
guys in the chat, is it already 
in power? 

800
00:42:44,240 --> 00:42:49,160
And if she really wanted to 
change her tune on the Bitcoin 

801
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:51,640
industry, then there's stuff 
that they could do right now. 

802
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:54,000
But they've given us help for 
the last three years. 

803
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:58,840
And now just because we get some
headline or a campaign to trying

804
00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:03,960
to persuade our industry to vote
for them, it does seem like it's

805
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:06,760
just hot air that nothing's 
actually going to change. 

806
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:08,840
They could literally change 
things today. 

807
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:11,560
So am I surprised that this is 
happening? 

808
00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:15,960
No, not at all as we know as 
Bitcoiners, or rather, you know,

809
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:18,200
I was watching Max Keiser on 
Alex Jones this morning. 

810
00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:21,560
He did a he did a great 
interview and just quoting Max 

811
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:24,840
Keiser again, you know, this is 
the global hash war playing out 

812
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,360
in real time. 
The Bitcoin game theory is 

813
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,560
playing out in real time where 
the first movers into the 

814
00:43:30,560 --> 00:43:32,600
Bitcoin industry are going to be
the real winners. 

815
00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:36,160
And as we saw with Trump when he
embraced Bitcoin and you guys 

816
00:43:36,160 --> 00:43:38,520
could say whether he likes 
Bitcoin or not, or whether he's 

817
00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:41,720
a shit coiner or whatever, The 
fact that he actually put 

818
00:43:41,720 --> 00:43:45,800
Bitcoin into to the presidential
conversation just goes to show 

819
00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:50,160
that if you are going to have an
anti Bitcoin stance, you are 

820
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:53,200
going to lose. 
Like this is the movement here. 

821
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:56,400
I know Bitcoiners don't like to 
get political, but as a voting 

822
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:59,760
bloc, Bitcoin holders or even at
large, the crypto holders, you 

823
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:03,280
know, the shit coin holders, 
like we are a huge voting bloc. 

824
00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:06,240
And if you're going to fight 
Bitcoin, then you're not going 

825
00:44:06,240 --> 00:44:08,240
to win. 
It's it's becoming very clear 

826
00:44:08,240 --> 00:44:12,680
now that you can't fight Bitcoin
because Bitcoiners, not only we 

827
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:16,280
have the money, but we have the 
numbers here and it's only going

828
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:18,440
to grow. 
So am I surprised by this 

829
00:44:18,440 --> 00:44:19,440
headline? 
No, not at all. 

830
00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:21,880
Do I think that she's actually 
going to change her tune on it? 

831
00:44:21,880 --> 00:44:24,440
No, not at all. 
Remember yesterday I absolutely 

832
00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:28,040
went super hard on the 
administration and where I think

833
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:29,480
their perspective is coming 
from. 

834
00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:33,680
But do we need the politicians? 
No, not necessarily. 

835
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,560
The politicians need Bitcoin. 
As you're seeing, they're trying

836
00:44:36,560 --> 00:44:39,760
to get the Bitcoin vote right 
now and you know, garner our 

837
00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:42,520
favor by saying like, oh, we're 
pro Bitcoin now or whatever. 

838
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:45,400
So shit coins now. 
And it's like you, you got it. 

839
00:44:45,400 --> 00:44:47,760
You know, like put up or shut up
at this point because you've 

840
00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:50,000
been giving us help for the last
three years and you think 1 

841
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:51,560
little campaigns going to change
anything? 

842
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:53,640
It's like, no, not at all. 
Exactly. 

843
00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:56,440
Yeah, I mean, look, like talk is
cheap. 

844
00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:59,040
Actions are expensive. 
You're trying to get something 

845
00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:03,120
for free without paying for it. 
And, you know, like I don't, 

846
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:05,760
that's not going to fly. 
And if you buy into that, like 

847
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,560
you're, you're like, you're not 
paying attention anyways. 

848
00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:10,680
Tony, what's your thoughts on 
this man? 

849
00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:12,720
I mean, I don't believe any of 
them. 

850
00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:15,320
I'm not. 
I hate all, I hate all 

851
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,720
politicians, you know, no matter
where they come from, they're 

852
00:45:17,720 --> 00:45:20,560
all liars. 
And it's very clear that this 

853
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:23,480
current administration thinks 
that the American population are

854
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:25,560
a bunch of morons. 
You know, obviously This is why 

855
00:45:25,560 --> 00:45:26,960
they're putting out these 
headlines. 

856
00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:30,720
They're mocking you, you know, 
because these people are clearly

857
00:45:30,720 --> 00:45:32,920
evil. 
They have no intentions of 

858
00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:36,080
serving the American people or 
benefiting the country in any 

859
00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,320
way, shape or form. 
And this is as a as a non 

860
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:41,160
American, it's like crystal 
clear to me from the outside, 

861
00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:44,520
what's what's happening? 
Their actions, you know, are are

862
00:45:44,600 --> 00:45:47,880
going to the complete opposite 
direction of this rubbish. 

863
00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:51,720
They don't even understand what 
Bitcoin is other than it's 

864
00:45:51,720 --> 00:45:56,040
something that they need to gain
votes or maybe even they hope. 

865
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:58,640
Well, at least I hope they 
understand that this thing is a 

866
00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:01,120
threat to them and that's why 
they have to do whatever it is 

867
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:03,360
that they can to sort of keep it
at Bay. 

868
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:06,160
But it's clear that they're 
losing because you cannot stop 

869
00:46:06,440 --> 00:46:09,880
peer-to-peer technology. 
These headlines is like somebody

870
00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:13,120
just told them here, throw out a
bunch of buzzwords to the crowd 

871
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,720
and hopefully they'll shut up 
and you know, clap for us. 

872
00:46:15,960 --> 00:46:17,640
This is what I see from the 
outside. 

873
00:46:17,640 --> 00:46:21,400
So categorically you have to 
ignore this 100%. 

874
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:24,360
You pay zero attention to this. 
Bitcoin doesn't need any of 

875
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:26,240
them. 
Yes, it's true that if some 

876
00:46:26,240 --> 00:46:30,360
politicians embrace it, they 
might make life easier in the US

877
00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:33,000
specifically in this case. 
You know, the actions of the US,

878
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:36,760
while they may influence other 
countries, you know, they're not

879
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:40,120
the end all and be all of what's
what other places are going to 

880
00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,520
adopt. 
And it's very clear because of 

881
00:46:42,520 --> 00:46:46,240
the actions of countries like El
Salvador, which I think are 

882
00:46:46,240 --> 00:46:49,040
going to be the ones cloned 
going forward. 

883
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:53,840
You know, nations that resort to
tyrannical measures will 

884
00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:56,480
ultimately fail. 
Unfortunately, you know that 

885
00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:59,520
people are going to have to 
suffer through that journey and 

886
00:46:59,920 --> 00:47:04,600
I'm hoping that's not the case. 
So, you know, whether you're 

887
00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:08,880
Trump pro, whoever, whoever it 
is, at the end of the day, it 

888
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:11,920
doesn't matter because it's 
going to come a moment in time 

889
00:47:12,280 --> 00:47:17,640
where they're going to realize 
that their power over money is 

890
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:20,240
over. 
And that's ultimately the end 

891
00:47:20,240 --> 00:47:22,200
game here. 
The separation of money and 

892
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:26,520
state is the ultimate end goal 
on everyone that cares about 

893
00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:28,440
their lives and their futures 
and their freedoms. 

894
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:32,000
And all of this must be doing 
everything possible under the 

895
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:35,640
sun to ensure that that twin is 
guaranteed. 

896
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:39,080
Amen. 
Yeah, no, ours beautifully put, 

897
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:43,760
100% agree. 
And we just got to just got to 

898
00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:47,240
stay focused and on mission. 
All right everybody, lots to 

899
00:47:47,240 --> 00:47:48,920
talk about. 
We're going to talk about the 

900
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:51,320
Bitcoin way on the culture. 
So stay tuned. 

901
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:52,720
We still got a lot of content 
for you guys. 

902
00:47:55,240 --> 00:48:03,240
The daily culture all. 
Right. 

903
00:48:03,240 --> 00:48:05,000
I do want to give a shout out to
our sponsor. 

904
00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:06,440
Of course, I'm talking about the
orange Palop. 

905
00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:09,800
The orange Palop is the Bitcoin 
social layer Stack friends who 

906
00:48:09,800 --> 00:48:13,560
Stacks that's doing the 11,500 
Bitcoiners that are currently on

907
00:48:13,560 --> 00:48:16,520
the app. 
If you're going to a new city or

908
00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:19,440
you're going you're on the move 
with the Bitcoin with you're 

909
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:22,360
going to a Bitcoin conference or
perhaps you're in your city that

910
00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:23,840
you've lived on for a very long 
time. 

911
00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:25,440
You just don't know any 
bitcoiners around you. 

912
00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:27,800
You pull up the orange pull app.
It has a really cool 

913
00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:30,280
geographical feature. 
We'll literally show you the 

914
00:48:30,280 --> 00:48:33,320
bitcoiners that are near you and
it gives you the ability to send

915
00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:37,600
them a message directly over DM.
Also, it's the number one 

916
00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:39,320
resource for Bitcoin only 
events. 

917
00:48:39,320 --> 00:48:41,200
Again, if you're traveling, 
you're going to a Bitcoin 

918
00:48:41,200 --> 00:48:42,400
conference. 
You just don't know what's 

919
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:44,480
happening that night. 
Pull up the orange pull up. 

920
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:46,640
It will show you. 
It's one of the best ways to 

921
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:48,520
reach me directly. 
I don't really answer Twitter 

922
00:48:48,520 --> 00:48:51,520
DMS or emails these days, but if
you send me a message on the 

923
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:55,280
orange pull up, I take the time 
every week or so to get back to 

924
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:58,040
every single one of you guys. 
So download the orange pull up 

925
00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:02,840
today, scan the QR code on your 
screen or check the link in the 

926
00:49:02,840 --> 00:49:04,680
video description. 
All right, man, I'm really 

927
00:49:04,680 --> 00:49:07,400
excited about this. 
We got our boys, V for Vendetta,

928
00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:11,680
Tony in the house and he's going
to talk about the Bitcoin wait. 

929
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:13,320
Nico, Nico, start. 
Let's start. 

930
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:15,160
Let's play the Let's play the 
video real quick. 

931
00:49:15,520 --> 00:49:17,640
Awesome. 
So, yeah, so they just, they 

932
00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:21,480
just released a new commercial 
this morning and I'll play it 

933
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:23,320
for you guys about about two or 
three minutes. 

934
00:49:35,600 --> 00:49:38,080
Everything seemed normal. 
Successful businesses were 

935
00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:40,440
functioning as they usually 
should, money was being placed 

936
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:43,640
in the Bank of savings. 
Life was good, nobody notices 

937
00:49:43,640 --> 00:49:47,080
anything funny. 
By 2008 hits and all hell breaks

938
00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:49,720
loose. 
Everything we thought about 

939
00:49:49,720 --> 00:49:52,840
money in the banking was a 
complete lie, a complete sham, a

940
00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:55,640
sponzi, a scam. 
The whole world fell apart and a

941
00:49:55,640 --> 00:50:02,560
lot of people got hurt 
financially as a result of this.

942
00:50:02,840 --> 00:50:04,560
The Bitcoin white paper was 
born. 

943
00:50:15,060 --> 00:50:18,220
But yet the same mistakes keep 
happening over and over again. 

944
00:50:18,300 --> 00:50:20,780
People are leaving money on 
their institutions up until the 

945
00:50:20,780 --> 00:50:24,500
last straw, FDX when billions of
dollars were lost, families were

946
00:50:24,500 --> 00:50:27,420
decimated, life savings were 
completely wiped, and people 

947
00:50:27,420 --> 00:50:29,700
were wondering what on earth 
just happened. 

948
00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:40,720
We have an option to take full 
custody of our funds, and that's

949
00:50:40,720 --> 00:50:43,200
Bitcoin. 
We just have to learn the 

950
00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:45,440
process. 
It's not hard, it's just 

951
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:47,240
something we've never had to do 
before. 

952
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:50,480
Otherwise, the same mistakes are
going to keep repeating 

953
00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:53,520
themselves and people are going 
to continue to get hurt over and

954
00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:57,840
over and over until they learn 
you need to exit the system in 

955
00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:00,120
order to protect yourself and 
your loved ones. 

956
00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:09,680
Man, loved it. 
Great, great, great video that 

957
00:51:09,680 --> 00:51:12,760
you guys put together, the 
music, the production, the 

958
00:51:12,760 --> 00:51:16,160
editing, it was great stuff. 
And I, I, I want to focus on the

959
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:19,800
last part before I pass it on to
Opti, which is this idea that 

960
00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:23,440
we've never really, we've never 
had this capability before and 

961
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:26,520
we've never really had the 
capability of being able to 

962
00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:32,160
custody vast sums of wealth or 
just your whole, your entire net

963
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:36,360
worth. 
And in an easy way too, right? 

964
00:51:36,680 --> 00:51:40,960
Because I would say the only 
really equivalent would be doing

965
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:43,680
that with gold. 
And, and maybe it's unpopular 

966
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:46,320
Bitcoiners like I, I physical 
gold, like is dope. 

967
00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:48,720
Like I have a little gold bar 
like, and I'm never going to 

968
00:51:48,720 --> 00:51:51,040
sell it just because it's like, 
you know, it's the thing, right?

969
00:51:51,400 --> 00:51:55,680
But I, I just, it's very 
limiting. 

970
00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:59,960
Like like try doing that with 
with a, a good deal of money. 

971
00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:03,160
It's going to be heavy, right? 
And then good luck travelling 

972
00:52:03,160 --> 00:52:05,160
with it, Like good luck going to
the airport. 

973
00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:08,400
What's the limits? 
I think it's like $10,000 on the

974
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:11,240
plane. 
Like, yeah, I mean, there's, 

975
00:52:11,240 --> 00:52:14,880
there's a huge risk there if you
take self custody, your Bitcoin 

976
00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:21,560
12 words, like good luck, you 
know, and I think that really 

977
00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:25,240
radically changes the game. 
The relationship between the 

978
00:52:25,240 --> 00:52:27,680
individual and the state is 
completely changed. 

979
00:52:28,280 --> 00:52:32,240
It really changes. 
Society as a whole is this very 

980
00:52:32,240 --> 00:52:34,720
simple thing. 
And usually the the most simple 

981
00:52:34,720 --> 00:52:36,640
things are the things are the 
most consequential. 

982
00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:42,760
But it's just like the ability 
for one individual to custody 

983
00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:46,560
vast sums of wealth and also 
have the ability to send that 

984
00:52:46,560 --> 00:52:50,400
anywhere globally, worldwide for
very cheap. 

985
00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:55,080
That is absolutely 
revolutionary, those two things.

986
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:57,560
So anyways, Tony, I don't know 
if you want to add to that, but.

987
00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:01,720
Yeah, man, Bitcoin, Bitcoin is 
the 9th 1/8, ninth wonder of the

988
00:53:01,720 --> 00:53:03,400
world. 
It's the first time, you know, 

989
00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:06,600
in the history of humanity you 
don't need anybody's permission 

990
00:53:06,640 --> 00:53:09,440
to use your own money. 
You know, you don't owe anyone 

991
00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:12,120
anything anymore. 
This is your own time and energy

992
00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:16,920
that you are preserving 100%. 
I mean, don't you realize that 

993
00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:19,920
you're being ripped off on a 
daily basis working in the 

994
00:53:19,920 --> 00:53:22,520
legacy system? 
It's it's abundantly clear now. 

995
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:24,320
I mean, give you a simple 
example. 

996
00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:27,680
If you're making $1000 a month, 
it's being debased through 

997
00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:31,320
inflation at at least 15%, if 
not more, depending where you're

998
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:33,880
living. 
So chop that off of the $1000. 

999
00:53:33,880 --> 00:53:36,520
Then you're paying whatever 
amount you're paying in taxes up

1000
00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:40,400
to 50%, you know, So add that 
all together, what's left from 

1001
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:43,680
that $1000 in purchasing power? 
What, 200 bucks? 

1002
00:53:44,240 --> 00:53:48,560
So that means essentially you're
working 75% of the year for 

1003
00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:51,120
free, you know, if you, if 
you're actually doing basic 

1004
00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:54,360
math. 
So why would you keep yourself 

1005
00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:57,920
in this predicament? 
And to make things worse, if you

1006
00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:01,840
need your money, you need to, 
you know, get the blessing of 

1007
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:05,560
your bank manager. 
You know, if he's woken up on 

1008
00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:08,480
the wrong side of the bed one 
day, or he decided you said 

1009
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:11,560
something he didn't agree with, 
well then you have no money. 

1010
00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:14,320
He will just refuse you and send
you packing home. 

1011
00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:16,520
Like, why would you want to do 
that? 

1012
00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:19,960
Who gave them the right to own 
so much power? 

1013
00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:23,200
But again, this was the lie that
we were fed from the day we were

1014
00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:25,080
born. 
But it turns out, you know, that

1015
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:27,160
the money in the bank is not 
yours. 

1016
00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:29,840
You know, until this day, 
there's too many people that 

1017
00:54:29,840 --> 00:54:32,720
still can't comprehend this. 
And this is where, you know, we 

1018
00:54:32,720 --> 00:54:36,240
must keep pushing the education 
and the knowledge to make them 

1019
00:54:36,240 --> 00:54:39,840
realize that if you don't do 
anything, if you don't exit the 

1020
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:43,120
system, you're going to fall, 
that you're going to sink with 

1021
00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:47,200
the ship spectacularly like 
everybody else who has gone 

1022
00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:49,840
through this dark journey, 
unfortunately. 

1023
00:54:50,280 --> 00:54:52,760
So again, you know, we have this
option now. 

1024
00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:55,080
It's like somebody handing you a
lottery ticket. 

1025
00:54:55,320 --> 00:54:59,320
You'd have to be insane not to 
sit down and consider taking it.

1026
00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:04,960
100% it's it is, it is like a 
lottery ticket. 

1027
00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:08,240
And as time goes by, that 
lottery ticket becomes more 

1028
00:55:08,240 --> 00:55:12,240
expensive and I, I do want to 
focus on, and I'm going to pass 

1029
00:55:12,240 --> 00:55:14,280
it on to Opti because Opti has 
some questions prepared. 

1030
00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:18,480
This is where you guys come in. 
This is what the Bitcoin way 

1031
00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:23,960
focuses on, which is you guys 
arm individuals with the tools 

1032
00:55:24,520 --> 00:55:31,160
and the skill set to really 
fully utilize the power that 

1033
00:55:31,720 --> 00:55:36,040
Bitcoin gives or the power that 
the the tools that Bitcoin gives

1034
00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:37,480
you, it gives you. 
It gives you power. 

1035
00:55:37,480 --> 00:55:39,120
Really, I don't know. 
I don't know how else to phrase 

1036
00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:42,680
it. 
Yeah, absolutely. 

1037
00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:46,080
Bitcoin makes you untouchable. 
It makes you unconfiscatable, 

1038
00:55:46,440 --> 00:55:49,480
you know, And when you're in 
that position, you know, those 

1039
00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:52,600
that who hate you, well, you 
know, they can't control you. 

1040
00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:56,200
This is why, you know, Bitcoin 
is such a threat to the status 

1041
00:55:56,200 --> 00:56:00,160
quo is because it removes power 
completely. 

1042
00:56:01,080 --> 00:56:03,880
You know, the Fiat Fiat system 
was created for three things and

1043
00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:06,120
three things alone. 
You know, it's the steel sensor 

1044
00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:07,960
and control. 
There's nothing else behind it. 

1045
00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:11,200
Otherwise, you know, you 
wouldn't you wouldn't see the 

1046
00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:14,400
pain and destruction being 
caused by it at this day and 

1047
00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:16,680
age. 
But it's technology, OK? 

1048
00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:19,040
And this is where a lot of 
people have a hard time with it 

1049
00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:22,280
because most people don't come 
from a tech background, so 

1050
00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:24,080
they're not sure how to approach
it. 

1051
00:56:24,080 --> 00:56:25,280
Am I going to do something 
wrong? 

1052
00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:28,280
Am I going to lose my funds? 
Because that is a valid concern 

1053
00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:31,040
if you make a mistake in this 
game, you know, and that the 

1054
00:56:31,040 --> 00:56:32,760
money's gone, there's no refund 
center. 

1055
00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:37,400
And so where we come in is that 
we remove all of that anxiety by

1056
00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:41,760
streamlining the entire process 
by simplifying it into four easy

1057
00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:45,880
steps, taking you from point A 
to point, you know, fully 

1058
00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:50,080
airtight lockdown, bulletproof 
setup in a way that a 10 year 

1059
00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:53,320
old will understand. 
And since we started doing this,

1060
00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:56,520
we realized that, you know, the 
needs of individuals getting 

1061
00:56:56,520 --> 00:57:00,200
into Bitcoin, you know, once the
money is secure, you know, 

1062
00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:04,160
there's a lot more that you can 
do with it to sort of cement 

1063
00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:06,840
your sovereign lifestyle. 
So when you start off with the 

1064
00:57:06,840 --> 00:57:09,760
money, once that's accounted 
for, you can move up to 

1065
00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:13,000
securing, you know, the devices,
for example, that you use to 

1066
00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:15,520
manage that money. 
This is where our cybersecurity 

1067
00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:19,240
experience and value comes in. 
And then we've taken it even a 

1068
00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:22,920
stage, even one step further. 
If you don't like where you're 

1069
00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:25,400
living or you don't agree with 
the direction that your 

1070
00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:28,440
government is is, is going in or
you don't like what they're 

1071
00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:31,280
doing and how they're making 
their your life miserable, 

1072
00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:34,200
believe you know, there are 
options out there. 

1073
00:57:34,520 --> 00:57:38,040
And we have a citizenship 
program now that will help you 

1074
00:57:38,040 --> 00:57:41,640
go from wherever you are to a 
place that one, is Bitcoin 

1075
00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:45,360
friendly and two, respects you 
as an individual, respects your 

1076
00:57:45,360 --> 00:57:48,920
freedoms and doesn't give you a 
headache on a daily basis 

1077
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:51,000
because of, you know, what 
you're thinking, what you're 

1078
00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:52,560
saying, what you're doing 
online. 

1079
00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:58,280
Like none of this rubbish exists
in every country, you know, So 

1080
00:57:59,040 --> 00:58:03,000
pick how you want to live. 
Do you want to put up with, you 

1081
00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:05,520
know, with, with headaches all 
day long or do you want to 

1082
00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:08,640
improve your life? 
If you have kids, it's almost a 

1083
00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:13,640
must, like a necessary decision 
that you have to account for if 

1084
00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:16,360
you don't want them to grow up 
and live in the future that's 

1085
00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:19,200
dictated by a bunch of 
psychopaths that think they're 

1086
00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:21,720
going to, you know, decide 
what's what's best for them and 

1087
00:58:21,800 --> 00:58:23,480
tell them how to live their 
lives. 

1088
00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:27,080
Absolutely man. 
Absolutely bullish man. 

1089
00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:29,920
You guys embody the Bitcoin 
ethos, Opti. 

1090
00:58:30,480 --> 00:58:32,920
Yeah, yeah. 
So actually you you covered some

1091
00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:35,240
of the stuff, but there is a 
good question here and it'll 

1092
00:58:35,240 --> 00:58:36,680
kind of pivot to the next 
question. 

1093
00:58:36,680 --> 00:58:39,760
So homeschool Bitcoin on Twitter
goes, can Bitcoin Way assist 

1094
00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:42,600
with setting up a full node on 
old 2010 Mac mini? 

1095
00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:46,040
So for everyone out there, what 
are the services that Bitcoin 

1096
00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:49,800
Way will provide for people? 
And like, you know what? 

1097
00:58:49,920 --> 00:58:52,320
Who is the ideal customer for 
Bitcoin Way? 

1098
00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:57,080
Everyone who wants to maintain 
their freedom and full control 

1099
00:58:57,080 --> 00:59:00,360
over their money. 
So we cover all aspects of the 

1100
00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:03,560
technology we know we deal with 
encrypted vaults, we deal with 

1101
00:59:03,560 --> 00:59:05,960
air gapped wallets, we deal with
Bitcoin nodes. 

1102
00:59:06,280 --> 00:59:10,000
We make the best and strictest 
recommendations for the hardware

1103
00:59:10,000 --> 00:59:12,120
and software. 
We are unforgiving on that 

1104
00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:14,200
front. 
So we, we have a list of 

1105
00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:17,560
criteria that we abide by. 
We test many products that are 

1106
00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:20,640
out there to, you know, to 
filter out the good from the 

1107
00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:22,760
bad. 
And based on those that pass 

1108
00:59:22,760 --> 00:59:25,280
these tests, we put them on a 
list and we send them out to 

1109
00:59:25,280 --> 00:59:28,200
folks and they pick and choose 
whatever they want based on 

1110
00:59:28,200 --> 00:59:30,600
personal preference. 
And we help them set it up. 

1111
00:59:30,920 --> 00:59:34,520
We troubleshoot, we offer remote
support all year round for 

1112
00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:36,920
whether it's for training, 
whether it's to assist with 

1113
00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:39,760
software updates for more 
upgrades, all of that stuff. 

1114
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:43,560
So think of us as a, you know, 
like as your personalized IT 

1115
00:59:43,600 --> 00:59:47,280
team, cybersecurity team in the 
background available to you all 

1116
00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:50,280
day long, no matter what it is 
that you're going to encounter. 

1117
00:59:50,680 --> 00:59:54,640
And the primary goal here is to 
have an infrastructure in place 

1118
00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:57,520
that secures your funds so that 
you're sleeping well at night 

1119
00:59:57,720 --> 00:59:59,960
knowing that nothing's going to 
happen. 

1120
01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:04,080
And we train you, like really 
religiously train you, so that 

1121
01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:07,520
the chances of you screwing 
something up along the way are 

1122
01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:10,760
very close to 0. 
And so far, every single 

1123
01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:14,560
individual that we've consulted 
with, and by the way, we consult

1124
01:00:14,560 --> 01:00:18,320
with folks from all age groups, 
most of them are mid to late 50s

1125
01:00:18,320 --> 01:00:20,200
and not. 
So it's not necessarily, you 

1126
01:00:20,200 --> 01:00:22,560
know, the young crowd that are 
coming into this space. 

1127
01:00:22,560 --> 01:00:26,400
It's mostly the older crowd. 
And for them, this is very new. 

1128
01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:30,240
And we're very cognizant of 
this, which is why, you know, 

1129
01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:33,240
we've, we've streamlined the 
process and we're exceptionally 

1130
01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:36,480
good teachers because this can 
be very daunting to someone 

1131
01:00:36,480 --> 01:00:39,120
who's never seen it before, 
especially if they don't come 

1132
01:00:39,600 --> 01:00:41,760
with the world where they're 
comfortable with computers and 

1133
01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:44,840
tech in general. 
So that's the, that's, that's 

1134
01:00:44,840 --> 01:00:48,720
really what we eliminate and we 
hand hold everybody through the,

1135
01:00:49,000 --> 01:00:51,280
every single one of our 
processes, whether it's the 

1136
01:00:51,280 --> 01:00:54,040
money, whether it's the devices,
whether it's their citizenship 

1137
01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:56,960
and residency programs. 
We meet you in person, It's a 

1138
01:00:56,960 --> 01:01:00,520
face to face experience and we 
hand hold you through all of it.

1139
01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:05,640
That's awesome, man. 
The incredibly incredible it's I

1140
01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:08,480
love Bitcoiners, man, love the 
Bitcoin way Opti. 

1141
01:01:09,160 --> 01:01:11,480
Yeah, moving forward, moving 
forward. 

1142
01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:17,120
So Tony, what is actually, 
actually I'm going to go back. 

1143
01:01:17,280 --> 01:01:21,160
How's it been the last year 
starting Bitcoin Way? 

1144
01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:23,640
How's that process been? 
And what's the most rewarding 

1145
01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:25,720
aspect of your job at Bitcoin 
Way? 

1146
01:01:27,440 --> 01:01:30,480
I got into Bitcoin after my life
was destroyed, my life savings 

1147
01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:33,640
completely stolen. 
And so I was desperate into 

1148
01:01:33,640 --> 01:01:36,880
finding a solution to this, to 
ensure that this can never 

1149
01:01:36,880 --> 01:01:39,560
happen to me again or to anyone 
else. 

1150
01:01:39,560 --> 01:01:42,840
And This is why we put the 
Bitcoin weight together and with

1151
01:01:42,840 --> 01:01:46,880
the mission to take the pain 
that I've went through and 

1152
01:01:46,880 --> 01:01:51,200
weaponize it into a tool of 
education to empower everyone 

1153
01:01:51,200 --> 01:01:54,840
out there who also doesn't want 
to, you know, find themselves in

1154
01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:58,560
that same predicament to, to, to
know what they need to do in 

1155
01:01:58,560 --> 01:02:03,200
order to ensure that their lives
remain as free and sovereign as 

1156
01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:05,360
possible. 
Since we started the Bitcoin 

1157
01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:09,120
way, we've met hundreds of folks
and it's been incredibly 

1158
01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:12,760
humbling and rewarding from a 
human perspective. 

1159
01:02:13,480 --> 01:02:16,480
I've spoken to people that have 
come from, you know, all parts 

1160
01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:18,840
of life from they all have their
stories. 

1161
01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:25,240
Most of the ones that are that 
impact me the most are the ones 

1162
01:02:25,240 --> 01:02:28,920
that come from pain because, you
know, you understand that these 

1163
01:02:28,920 --> 01:02:31,960
people are not coming into 
Bitcoin for fun. 

1164
01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:33,760
They're not coming in here to 
speculate. 

1165
01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:35,960
They're coming in here to 
survive. 

1166
01:02:36,240 --> 01:02:39,280
And so they're not playing 
games, they're not taking 

1167
01:02:39,280 --> 01:02:42,160
shortcuts. 
They want to do their part into 

1168
01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:46,200
into ensuring that as many 
people as possible understand 

1169
01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:50,440
this, understand the right 
message behind Bitcoin and so 

1170
01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:54,520
that it spreads globally. 
The ripple effect of this 

1171
01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:57,880
knowledge and this positivity 
and this encouragement, you 

1172
01:02:57,880 --> 01:03:01,120
know, must be the message that's
put out there. 

1173
01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:05,480
And, and, you know, so as as 
much as many people as possible 

1174
01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:09,560
embrace it the proper way. 
You don't want people to come in

1175
01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:12,080
here thinking they want to make 
dollar profits. 

1176
01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:14,200
That is absolutely the wrong 
mindset. 

1177
01:03:14,200 --> 01:03:17,320
And most of the time they're 
going to get completely 

1178
01:03:17,320 --> 01:03:21,120
destroyed because we are 
transitioning from a broken 

1179
01:03:21,120 --> 01:03:25,320
system into a new one. 
And as we very clearly see the 

1180
01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:29,080
powers, you know, that be that 
control, that corrupt system are

1181
01:03:29,080 --> 01:03:30,920
not going to give it up without 
a fight. 

1182
01:03:31,200 --> 01:03:34,920
And so this volatility is 
something, you know, it's, it's 

1183
01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:36,480
like a headache we just have to 
deal with. 

1184
01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:39,920
But if you zoom out and you, 
you, you know, you're patient 

1185
01:03:39,920 --> 01:03:45,000
enough, 99% of the time, you 
come out solidly on top. 

1186
01:03:45,520 --> 01:03:48,440
So this is where, you know, the 
message of the Bitcoin wave 

1187
01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:52,240
comes in. 
And, you know, we were there to 

1188
01:03:52,240 --> 01:03:55,320
talk to people, OK? 
I mean, we have a direct link to

1189
01:03:55,320 --> 01:03:57,520
everyone. 
They can reach out to us almost 

1190
01:03:57,520 --> 01:04:00,320
24/7 all year round. 
You know, somebody wakes up in 

1191
01:04:00,320 --> 01:04:02,640
the middle of the night with a 
panic attack and a question. 

1192
01:04:02,880 --> 01:04:04,440
He can reach out. 
She can reach out. 

1193
01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:05,840
There's somebody there to 
respond. 

1194
01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:11,520
So we ensure that, you know, 
being on this journey is not 

1195
01:04:11,520 --> 01:04:14,480
something that you have to go on
by yourself. 

1196
01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:17,400
You're not alone. 
There's a whole bunch of people 

1197
01:04:17,680 --> 01:04:21,560
that you know that are on the 
same side as you were here. 

1198
01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:25,480
We make sure, you know, we keep 
the community as cohesive and 

1199
01:04:25,480 --> 01:04:27,800
cohesive and, and connected as 
possible. 

1200
01:04:28,280 --> 01:04:32,440
And wherever we can contribute, 
you can bet your your ass we're 

1201
01:04:32,440 --> 01:04:35,320
going to be doing it. 
Love it. 

1202
01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:37,520
One of my, one of my favorite 
memes, Tony, that, that I've 

1203
01:04:37,520 --> 01:04:41,680
heard you say before is how 
Apple has like the Apple support

1204
01:04:41,680 --> 01:04:43,760
team. 
Bitcoin way is basically like 

1205
01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:47,480
the Bitcoin IT team. 
And I think we, we all in our 

1206
01:04:47,680 --> 01:04:50,560
small part, do that with our 
friends and family, like the 

1207
01:04:50,560 --> 01:04:52,920
Uncle Jim model, where like 
we're the ones helping our 

1208
01:04:52,920 --> 01:04:55,960
friends and family understand 
why Bitcoin, how to do it 

1209
01:04:55,960 --> 01:04:58,160
correctly. 
But that's the goal of Bitcoin 

1210
01:04:58,160 --> 01:05:00,440
ways. 
Like if you don't have someone 

1211
01:05:00,440 --> 01:05:03,560
in your life that is a bitcoiner
and you're the sole bitcoiner, 

1212
01:05:03,560 --> 01:05:06,640
then you get in touch with the 
Bitcoin Way team and they will 

1213
01:05:06,640 --> 01:05:08,280
make sure that you are 
protected. 

1214
01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:11,640
Absolutely, man. 
I mean, our services go way 

1215
01:05:11,640 --> 01:05:14,600
beyond, you know, following a 
manual for a specific product. 

1216
01:05:14,600 --> 01:05:16,800
This is not what we're about. 
You know, many people can do 

1217
01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:20,080
this. 
We bring in our years of 

1218
01:05:20,080 --> 01:05:24,920
experience and you know, to a 
large part my personal story 

1219
01:05:25,160 --> 01:05:29,520
that brought me into the space. 
I was retired at the age of 41. 

1220
01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:31,880
You know, I ran through 
successful businesses my life, 

1221
01:05:31,880 --> 01:05:33,760
you know, as far as I'm 
concerned, you know, that's it. 

1222
01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:38,880
I can kick back, enjoy life, 
everything is cool, and then I 

1223
01:05:38,880 --> 01:05:41,160
wake up one day and it's gone to
0, all of it. 

1224
01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:46,800
So I'm not an idiot, OK? 
But I was fed that same line to 

1225
01:05:46,800 --> 01:05:48,960
thinking, you know, that you, 
you work hard, you put money in 

1226
01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:51,520
the bank, that's how life is and
everything will be fine. 

1227
01:05:51,680 --> 01:05:54,640
It's not. 
And so if it can happen to me, 

1228
01:05:54,880 --> 01:05:57,320
you know it's going to happen to
a lot more people, especially 

1229
01:05:57,320 --> 01:06:00,960
those that don't take the time 
to listen to these stories 

1230
01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:03,360
because these are the ones that 
truly matter. 

1231
01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:07,000
Somebody who's sharing their 
experience from you has no bad 

1232
01:06:07,000 --> 01:06:10,440
intentions. 
They are sending out a warning, 

1233
01:06:10,600 --> 01:06:15,760
you know, trying to capture your
attention so that you destroy 

1234
01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:19,760
that illusion that just because 
things are OK for you today that

1235
01:06:19,760 --> 01:06:21,960
they're going to remain like 
this forever. 

1236
01:06:22,400 --> 01:06:25,080
The Fiat system is broken. 
It doesn't matter whether you're

1237
01:06:25,080 --> 01:06:28,720
living in New York and Beverly 
Hills or in some third world 

1238
01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:33,440
country, if that's all you're 
using, your end result for, all 

1239
01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:37,600
of you is a big fat 0. 
So if you don't want to reach 

1240
01:06:37,880 --> 01:06:40,960
that nightmare, you have to opt 
out. 

1241
01:06:41,600 --> 01:06:44,160
OK. 
And again, for the first time in

1242
01:06:44,160 --> 01:06:48,680
the species of the human race, 
we have that option called 

1243
01:06:48,720 --> 01:06:51,360
Bitcoin. 
Thankfully we do, because if we 

1244
01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:55,720
didn't have it, who knows how 
bad things will get. 

1245
01:06:55,720 --> 01:06:59,640
And ultimately, when things get 
dire enough, your only solution 

1246
01:06:59,840 --> 01:07:04,080
is violence, OK? 
And I'm not one who wants to see

1247
01:07:04,080 --> 01:07:05,360
that. 
I've lived through it. 

1248
01:07:05,440 --> 01:07:08,600
I know that horror movie. 
It is something that I promise 

1249
01:07:08,600 --> 01:07:11,600
you, you do not want to see. 
It's something that no one has 

1250
01:07:11,600 --> 01:07:14,840
seen before. 
When good people are desperate 

1251
01:07:14,840 --> 01:07:16,920
enough and pushed to do bad 
things. 

1252
01:07:17,600 --> 01:07:20,120
It is not a sight that you will 
ever forget. 

1253
01:07:20,560 --> 01:07:24,160
And so I don't want to see that 
happen. 

1254
01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:27,840
And in order to prevent this, 
you know, we need a large enough

1255
01:07:27,840 --> 01:07:32,320
number of people to cut to 
create that social bottoms up 

1256
01:07:32,320 --> 01:07:35,680
pressure to do this peacefully. 
We have an option. 

1257
01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:39,320
You can either defund the 
corruption that's destroying our

1258
01:07:39,320 --> 01:07:41,440
lives, or you can go to war with
it. 

1259
01:07:41,680 --> 01:07:43,680
Most people don't want to go to 
war with anyone. 

1260
01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:45,360
I don't want to go to war with 
anyone. 

1261
01:07:45,720 --> 01:07:49,560
So we have the option to defund 
it, but we have to apply 

1262
01:07:49,560 --> 01:07:52,120
ourselves to it. 
We don't, we don't want to 

1263
01:07:52,120 --> 01:07:54,840
speculate. 
Bitcoin is not the risky asset. 

1264
01:07:55,000 --> 01:07:58,560
Fiat is the risky asset because 
that one is guaranteed to go to 

1265
01:07:58,560 --> 01:08:00,840
0. 
Bitcoin may be volatile in the 

1266
01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:03,600
meantime as we transition into 
that Bitcoin standard, which 

1267
01:08:03,600 --> 01:08:06,600
ultimately I'm 100% convinced 
we're going to get there 

1268
01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:09,960
because, you know, people, you 
know, at some point are just 

1269
01:08:09,960 --> 01:08:12,760
going to snap out of whatever 
nonsense they have and realize 

1270
01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:16,680
that their lives are going to 
hell if they don't react in the 

1271
01:08:16,800 --> 01:08:19,720
in the right way. 
And hopefully we can be a beacon

1272
01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:23,880
of education, of hope, of 
strength, of empowerment in 

1273
01:08:23,880 --> 01:08:26,000
order to fast track that 
process. 

1274
01:08:26,160 --> 01:08:30,479
So our services really embody 
the Bitcoin lifestyle. 

1275
01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:34,120
OK, yes, we handle all of the 
technology because that's, you 

1276
01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:36,359
know, the the fundamentals of it
all. 

1277
01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:41,520
But we assist with the entire 
Bitcoin lifestyle ecosystem, 

1278
01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:44,960
from taking you from where you 
are all the way to moving you to

1279
01:08:45,240 --> 01:08:48,880
a jurisdiction where you can 
continue living as a happy 

1280
01:08:48,880 --> 01:08:51,479
individual with you, your kids, 
your family, and whatever else 

1281
01:08:51,720 --> 01:08:54,000
you want to, you know, embark 
with on this journey. 

1282
01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:59,160
Love it, love it, Tony. 
So wrapping up here, what is the

1283
01:08:59,160 --> 01:09:01,760
future of Bitcoin Way and what 
do you hope to accomplish in the

1284
01:09:01,760 --> 01:09:05,960
next year, 23510 years, whatever
the end goal is here with 

1285
01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:07,840
Bitcoin Way, what what's the 
mission? 

1286
01:09:08,520 --> 01:09:11,359
We are constantly innovating our
services to really to focus on 

1287
01:09:11,359 --> 01:09:14,240
these three priorities, the 
money, the devices and the 

1288
01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:15,880
freedom, you know, the 
jurisdictions. 

1289
01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:19,080
And based on that, we're going 
to keep maturing these services 

1290
01:09:19,080 --> 01:09:21,160
based on what's happening in the
globe. 

1291
01:09:21,160 --> 01:09:22,520
You know, we're on top of the 
news. 

1292
01:09:22,520 --> 01:09:25,880
We see what's going on. 
We talked to many folks, you 

1293
01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:27,960
know, on a daily basis. 
We hear their stories. 

1294
01:09:28,240 --> 01:09:32,319
We customize our services based 
on, on, you know, the, the 

1295
01:09:32,319 --> 01:09:35,319
stories of other people to see 
how we can fine tune how we can 

1296
01:09:35,319 --> 01:09:39,040
reach even more individuals in, 
you know, in parts of the world 

1297
01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:45,160
maybe that we haven't considered
to see how we can sort of find 

1298
01:09:45,160 --> 01:09:47,960
resources to assist those that 
that need it. 

1299
01:09:48,319 --> 01:09:51,880
That's really what we're about. 
We're we're, we want to push 

1300
01:09:52,120 --> 01:09:56,400
people into a Bitcoin standard 
as quickly as possible so that 

1301
01:09:56,400 --> 01:10:00,080
everybody's life improves. 
You know, like, I mean, if you 

1302
01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:02,840
meet someone who's been living 
on a Bitcoin standard, have you 

1303
01:10:02,840 --> 01:10:05,960
ever heard them complain? 
I haven't, you know, I've never 

1304
01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:09,960
met an unhappy bitcoiner because
they're already living in the 

1305
01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:13,160
future, right? 
Like their cost of living goes 

1306
01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:15,600
down when you're on a Bitcoin 
standard. 

1307
01:10:15,600 --> 01:10:19,760
Whereas if you're not doing this
and you're still, you know, that

1308
01:10:19,760 --> 01:10:24,200
hamster on the wheel trying to 
make ends meet, well, things are

1309
01:10:24,200 --> 01:10:27,880
only going to get more dire, 
more expensive, and, and at some

1310
01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:31,240
point, you're just not going to 
know what to do. 

1311
01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:34,320
And that's the scenario that I 
want to avoid, because that's 

1312
01:10:34,320 --> 01:10:39,400
when all sorts of craziness 
manifests. 100%, Tony. 

1313
01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:42,680
OK, what's the last message? 
What's the final two sets you 

1314
01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:45,000
want to give to the audience 
before we wrap up today's show? 

1315
01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:47,680
Consider Bitcoin. 
Study Bitcoin. 

1316
01:10:47,680 --> 01:10:50,080
It's in your best interest. 
It's in the best interest of 

1317
01:10:50,080 --> 01:10:52,800
your family. 
You owe it to them to ensure 

1318
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:55,840
that their futures are not 
dictated by a bunch of criminals

1319
01:10:55,840 --> 01:10:58,960
and psychopaths that are not 
here to serve you. 

1320
01:10:59,440 --> 01:11:03,480
So opt out and it's not that 
hard. 

1321
01:11:03,560 --> 01:11:07,360
And if you need help, we are 
absolutely here day and night in

1322
01:11:07,360 --> 01:11:11,520
order to do whatever we can to 
to make the the the journey as 

1323
01:11:11,520 --> 01:11:14,000
seamless and as comfortable and 
as easy as possible. 

1324
01:11:15,040 --> 01:11:17,800
Beautiful, beautiful. 
So guys to get started, go to 

1325
01:11:17,960 --> 01:11:22,400
thebitcoinway.com. 
Again, these guys will be your 

1326
01:11:22,400 --> 01:11:26,000
personal, your personal Bitcoin 
IT team. 

1327
01:11:26,720 --> 01:11:29,560
Also, I just kind of want to 
address someone in the comments.

1328
01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:34,720
Kind of been going back and 
forth and like, like guys, you 

1329
01:11:34,720 --> 01:11:38,800
have to understand and we've 
been very neutral on this show 

1330
01:11:38,800 --> 01:11:45,360
for many, many months now. 
And we didn't speak up until the

1331
01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:50,640
Biden administration locked the 
samurai got the which is part 

1332
01:11:50,640 --> 01:11:53,400
of, you know, DOJ. 
You can say it's all connected. 

1333
01:11:54,120 --> 01:11:58,320
They locked the samurai Bitcoin 
developers in a box. 

1334
01:11:59,120 --> 01:12:01,880
Before that, they went after 
Tornado Cash to set the 

1335
01:12:01,880 --> 01:12:04,640
precedent. 
Not to mention all the other 

1336
01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:08,320
times that we've had people like
Caitlin Long that are really 

1337
01:12:08,320 --> 01:12:13,560
like entrepreneurs really trying
to roll out Bitcoin, you know, 

1338
01:12:13,560 --> 01:12:15,440
Bitcoin businesses in the United
States. 

1339
01:12:15,880 --> 01:12:18,480
And you have someone like 
Cameron Winklevoss and Tyler 

1340
01:12:18,480 --> 01:12:21,240
Winklevoss and you have someone 
like Nick Carter, like they got 

1341
01:12:21,240 --> 01:12:25,160
skin in the game. 
And if they're telling you, you 

1342
01:12:25,160 --> 01:12:28,000
know, that this current 
administration is against the 

1343
01:12:28,080 --> 01:12:32,000
industry, you know, they're 
probably telling you something. 

1344
01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:34,880
This is something also that me 
and Opti saw with our own 

1345
01:12:34,880 --> 01:12:36,720
research because we are a Daily 
News show. 

1346
01:12:36,720 --> 01:12:38,360
So we have to stay on top of the
news. 

1347
01:12:39,240 --> 01:12:42,880
And, you know, for the longest 
time, and I even got upset at 

1348
01:12:42,880 --> 01:12:47,360
Opti the first time he brought 
it up, I, I was like, dude, 

1349
01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:50,640
like, don't get divisive in the 
political discussion. 

1350
01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:55,320
But here's the thing, the moment
you locked one of us in a box 

1351
01:12:56,000 --> 01:12:59,840
and the moment you start to 
threaten and insinuate that 

1352
01:12:59,840 --> 01:13:03,840
you're going after self custody 
is the moment that you cross a 

1353
01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:05,960
red line and we have to say 
something. 

1354
01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:09,640
And not to mention it created a 
situation where their political 

1355
01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:12,080
opponents that weren't pro 
Bitcoin, they didn't have a 

1356
01:13:12,080 --> 01:13:14,600
stance. 
It created an opportunity for 

1357
01:13:14,600 --> 01:13:17,600
them to capitalize on the drop 
ball that this current 

1358
01:13:17,600 --> 01:13:24,000
administration, you know, did. 
So it's like if you can't see 

1359
01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:28,320
past the political rhetoric of 
like orange man bad, RFK bad, 

1360
01:13:28,520 --> 01:13:31,960
Biden good, then you're not 
really serious about the 

1361
01:13:31,960 --> 01:13:35,200
separation of money and state. 
Because at the end of the day, I

1362
01:13:35,200 --> 01:13:38,960
don't want like this whole 
political thing. 

1363
01:13:38,960 --> 01:13:41,520
And I know Tony feel very 
strongly about the statement. 

1364
01:13:41,840 --> 01:13:46,160
This whole political garbage is 
insane. 

1365
01:13:46,160 --> 01:13:50,560
Like the fact that we have to 
vote some guy into office like a

1366
01:13:50,560 --> 01:13:56,520
popularity test and that guy is 
somehow responsible for, you 

1367
01:13:56,520 --> 01:13:58,560
know, the economy and and 
society. 

1368
01:13:58,560 --> 01:14:02,360
Like that idea is batshit crazy.
It's insane. 

1369
01:14:02,760 --> 01:14:05,280
I really believe in the theory 
of the sovereign individual that

1370
01:14:05,280 --> 01:14:08,480
overtime Bitcoin will make 
politics irrelevant. 

1371
01:14:08,480 --> 01:14:10,800
The separation of money and 
state will make politics 

1372
01:14:10,800 --> 01:14:14,120
irrelevant, where governments 
can no longer counterfeit money 

1373
01:14:14,360 --> 01:14:18,240
and their only way of raising 
revenue is via direct taxation. 

1374
01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:20,040
And you're going to have 
different jurisdictions 

1375
01:14:20,320 --> 01:14:23,040
competing for your business, 
right? 

1376
01:14:23,360 --> 01:14:26,760
So yeah, like that's where I'm 
heading. 

1377
01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:30,840
And what I see Trump or where I 
see RFK is I see them as a means

1378
01:14:30,840 --> 01:14:34,840
to an end to that, you know, to 
that world that we want to get 

1379
01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:37,520
to. 
I see the current administration

1380
01:14:37,720 --> 01:14:40,800
via their actions, not their 
political rhetoric or not 

1381
01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:44,840
articles online or none of that 
bullshit, just their actions. 

1382
01:14:44,840 --> 01:14:47,840
And we're a Bitcoin show, so we 
don't focus on all the other BS.

1383
01:14:49,200 --> 01:14:53,400
It's incredibly obvious that if 
you're a Bitcoin entrepreneur in

1384
01:14:53,400 --> 01:14:57,680
the United States, two 
candidates are awesome and take 

1385
01:14:57,680 --> 01:15:00,760
a look at their speeches at the 
Bitcoin conference and the 

1386
01:15:00,760 --> 01:15:02,600
current administration that's in
power. 

1387
01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:07,600
She, Biden and Harris could free
Ross right now if they wanted 

1388
01:15:07,600 --> 01:15:09,680
to. 
They can do it right now, right?

1389
01:15:10,040 --> 01:15:12,680
They've been anti Bitcoin. 
If you don't have the 

1390
01:15:12,680 --> 01:15:15,760
self-awareness and you can't see
past the political rhetoric, 

1391
01:15:15,840 --> 01:15:18,680
dude, you got bigger problems. 
That's what I got to say about 

1392
01:15:18,680 --> 01:15:21,120
that. 
So anyways, I hope I explained 

1393
01:15:21,120 --> 01:15:22,880
it. 
I hope I got into it and I kind 

1394
01:15:22,880 --> 01:15:25,480
of kind of ruined the show a 
little bit because we were, we 

1395
01:15:25,480 --> 01:15:28,560
were going along with Tony. 
He was dropping hot fire. 

1396
01:15:28,560 --> 01:15:30,720
But yeah, I have to. 
I agree with Tony. 

1397
01:15:30,720 --> 01:15:32,880
I agree with Tony. 
All politicians live. 

1398
01:15:32,880 --> 01:15:35,480
But hey, four years of good 
cover for Bitcoin would be 

1399
01:15:35,480 --> 01:15:36,800
great. 
Yeah. 

1400
01:15:36,880 --> 01:15:40,000
So yeah, it would be great for 
the industry. 

1401
01:15:41,440 --> 01:15:44,520
Bitcoin doesn't need the the 
price doesn't need a politician 

1402
01:15:44,520 --> 01:15:45,960
to go up. 
It would defeat the entire 

1403
01:15:45,960 --> 01:15:49,160
purpose of it, right?
