I think this is setting a road 15 00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,160 map for other companies. They're putting 10% of their 16 00:00:51,160 --> 00:00:55,200 profits into Bitcoin at the. I think it's at the end of every 17 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:58,000 quarter. And of course every company that 18 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:01,560 adopts a Bitcoin strategy or adopts some type of a Bitcoin 19 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,560 standard has a major competitive advantage. 20 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,120 They have a cheat code against other companies. 21 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:11,000 That's why it was a huge deal when the second largest bank in 22 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:15,360 Europe announced yesterday they they made a very small purchase. 23 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:19,680 It was like $40,000. They bought $40,000 worth of the 24 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:25,560 BlackRock iShares ET Bitcoin ETF, but still number go up, 25 00:01:25,560 --> 00:01:28,280 it's going to do its thing and then market incentives, you 26 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:29,480 know, will take care of the rest. 27 00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,400 So definitely making progress in that sense. 28 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:34,360 And the other thing that I wanted to talk about today as 29 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:38,440 well and really break it down is this gentleman called Jared 30 00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,360 Bernstein. There's a video of him that's 31 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,720 going absolutely viral on on Bitcoin Twitter. 32 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:48,200 I believe it's a, it's a clip from a, a, a, a, a, a movie of 33 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,880 some sort. But anyways, he is the chief 34 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:56,000 economist and economic visor to He was the chief economist and 35 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:59,280 economic visor to Vice President Joe Biden in the Obama 36 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:02,000 administration. And now he's currently the chair 37 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:06,080 of the United States Council of Economic Affairs economic 38 00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:09,199 Advisors. Anyways, in this clip, he kind 39 00:02:09,199 --> 00:02:11,240 of fumbles. And he he he's like, I don't 40 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:14,800 know, like we just print money and he can't explain it. 41 00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:17,440 He can't justify it. And a lot of bitcoiners are 42 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,600 saying, like, look like these people have no idea what they're 43 00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:21,120 doing. I'm gonna make the case that 44 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,120 they know exactly why they're doing. 45 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:27,320 Why am I saying that? Because he is part of the 46 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:31,320 Council of Economic Advisors, and they're the ones that are 47 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:35,520 responsible for writing the annual Presidential Economic 48 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,600 Report. We've covered that report. 49 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:44,200 That report in 2023 dedicated 20 pages, making the case as to why 50 00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:47,600 central bank digital currencies are necessary and making the 51 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:51,440 case against Bitcoin. So you know, it's it's a lot 52 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:55,160 easier to play dumb. Like we have it, we even have a 53 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,960 saying in Spanish for it, which is like ACT El Pendejo, which 54 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,600 basically means like act dumb, be stupid. 55 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,720 And you can get away with a lot of things when you act dumb and 56 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,760 you pretend like you don't know what you're talking about. 57 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,800 So we're going to break it down and just kind of make the case 58 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:15,600 for you guys. Also, Coinbase finally launched 59 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:21,600 their Lightning integration and as much as you guys dislike 60 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:26,080 Coinbase and they are an altcoin casino, totally agree with that 61 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,160 you should be using Bitcoin on RAMPS. 62 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,720 You know the fact is that they have a massive user base, right? 63 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:36,200 So the fact that they're integrating Lightning I think is 64 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,480 a big win for the Bitcoin Lightning Network. 65 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,840 It's a big win for more people using Lightning Network, for 66 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,760 more people using Bitcoin. And I understand a lot of you 67 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:48,480 guys feel a certain way about Coinbase and it's totally 68 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,600 understandable, but that's the reality, like Coinbase is user 69 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:55,320 base is absolutely massive. So anyways, it's going to be a 70 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:59,040 great show everybody, so buckle up and enjoy the ride. 71 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:02,000 Anyways, I do want to bring a legendary Co host who's always 72 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,640 optimistic.

So you know, that's that's 111 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,880 absolutely awesome. So, you know, if you guys could 112 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,400 give like a quick elevator pitch, what is Bitcoin veterans, 113 00:05:57,120 --> 00:06:01,240 you know what it's about?

Next thing you know, within like 119 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:17,560 48 hours we hit the limits on it in terms of how many people we 120 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,200 could have. And we're like, oh crap, we need 121 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:23,440 a bigger boat maybe. And then let's let's start this 122 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,240 thing up on Signal. Started adding channels where 123 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:30,040 people could come and talk and it's really blown up since then, 124 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,080 I think we've doing it, been doing it not quite a year, 125 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,520 something like 8 months or something like that, but we're 126 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:39,800 already approaching close to 500 people in our different chat 127 00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:41,360 groups. It's exploding. 128 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,680 We had no idea there were this many veterans in Bitcoin, but 129 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,240 really apparently all it took was somebody planting a flag, 130 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:50,320 going boom, we're here, let's get together, let's talk. 131 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,600 And it's an amazing thing.

Like you said, they print the 360 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:08,000 dollar, so why? Why does the government even 361 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:09,840 borrow? Well, the so. 362 00:18:12,120 --> 00:18:20,280 The I mean, again, some of this stuff gets some of the language 363 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,560 that the MMM, some of the language and concepts are just 364 00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:24,640 confusing. I mean the government definitely 365 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:28,120 prints money and it definitely lends that money, which is why 366 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,640 the government definitely prints money and then it lends that 367 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:35,560 money by by selling bonds. Is that what they do? 368 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:37,480 They. They. 369 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:41,440 They, yeah. They, they, they. 370 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,880 Before I continue, guys, this is the chair of the Council of 371 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,640 Economic Advisers to President Joe Biden. 372 00:18:48,360 --> 00:18:50,680 Sell bonds. Yeah, they sell bonds, right? 373 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:53,040 Since they sell bonds and people buy the bonds and lend them the 374 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:53,720 money. Yeah. 375 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:58,000 So a lot of times. A lot of times, at least in my 376 00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,560 ear with MMT, the the language and the concepts can be kind of 377 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:04,200 unnecessarily confusing. But there is no question that 378 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:08,040 the government prints money and then it uses that money to. 379 00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:16,960 So yeah, I I guess I'm just, I don't I can't really talk. 380 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:18,880 I don't, I don't get it. I don't know what they're 381 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:23,960 talking about like because it's like the government clearly 382 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,440 prints money, does it all the time and it clearly borrows 383 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,440 otherwise we wouldn't be having this debt and deficit 384 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,720 conversation. So I don't think there's 385 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:36,320 anything confusing there. I mean like again if this. 386 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:37,960 I love the background music. Sorry, Nikos. 387 00:19:38,120 --> 00:19:39,640 Background music was great. No. 388 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:43,840 And and and for dramatic effect. If if this was just some person 389 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:46,040 off the street and they would say that response, you would 390 00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:51,840 say, OK, you know, that's fine. But this was the chief economist 391 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,000 and an economic advisor to Vice President Joe Biden, the Obama 392 00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,960 administration, and now currently he's the chair of the 393 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:00,080 United States Council of Economic Advisors. 394 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,640 He also said something during that video that was really 395 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,920 interesting. He said, yeah, you know, 396 00:20:05,120 --> 00:20:07,400 Treasury issues bonds and people buy them. 397 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,680 Listen, there is no sovereign wealth fund or country on earth 398 00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:15,400 that has the money to buy the amount of bonds the Treasury's 399 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,200 issuing. You know who's buying them? 400 00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,400 The Federal Reserve themselves. Right. 401 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:21,720 So, like, again, it it's like it. 402 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:27,840 But most people don't know this. And honestly, I don't like, you 403 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:31,720 can't say this person's dumb. He went to Columbia University, 404 00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,320 right. He had a he's a doctorate, 405 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,120 right. You can't say he's dumb. 406 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,600 You you don't become the chief economist and economic advisor 407 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,960 device. I mean, depends on who you're 408 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:43,480 asking. But you can't. 409 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,160 You can't say he's he's not intelligent. 410 00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,040 You can't say he's not a capable person. 411 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:51,160 I will make the case that I believe it's a little bit more 412 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:54,720 sinister than this. And the reason for that is 413 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,440 specifically, and when I saw that, when I discovered that 414 00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,000 this morning when I was doing research for the show, my jaw 415 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,440 dropped. So what is the Council of 416 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,480 Economic Advisors? So the Council of Economic 417 00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:11,480 Advisors writes the says, is is a United States agency within 418 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,520 the Executive Office of the President, which advises the 419 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,800 President of the United States on economic policy. 420 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,840 The CEA provides much of the empirical research for the White 421 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:25,000 House and prepares the publicly available annual Economic report 422 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,920 of the President. Now we covered one of these 423 00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:32,880 economic reports when they came out last year because in one of 424 00:21:32,880 --> 00:21:36,120 those economic reports you know what they did, they attacked 425 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,760 Bitcoin and you know what they promoted, they promoted central 426 00:21:39,760 --> 00:21:44,120 bank digital currencies. And this report was very, very 427 00:21:44,160 --> 00:21:48,480 well written. So again like I, I, I I'm sorry 428 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,520 if I don't like his answers or just like non answers like I 429 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:54,040 like I don't know what they do, like they borrow the money. 430 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,120 Like it it it's it's almost feels a little bit like a 431 00:21:56,120 --> 00:21:59,400 deflection. And in this report they 432 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:04,840 dedicated 20 entire pages, basically making the case for 433 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:11,680 central banks, making the case for Fiat money, making the case 434 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,920 for central bank digital currencies and criticizing 435 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:17,240 Bitcoin, saying Bitcoin can't be money. 436 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:20,240 Well it's apparently money when it's convenient to the law 437 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,000 enforcement, right? But anyways, I kind of want to 438 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:26,440 read you a little bit of the beginning of this report that 439 00:22:26,440 --> 00:22:29,520 came out was released last year. And by the way it came out of 440 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,520 this guy's office who just did that video that that that 441 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,880 interview came out of his office, right? 442 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,200 So anyways, it goes on to say the name of the chapter is 443 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,320 Digital Assets Relearning Economic Principles. 444 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,720 Multiple financial crisis crisis have have struck the United 445 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,320 States during the last two centuries. 446 00:22:45,640 --> 00:22:49,000 Most of these crisis have been caused by institutions that 447 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,760 function like banks but are not registered or regulated as 448 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:56,120 banks, so-called shadow banks. For example, the 1907 crisis, 449 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,880 then called the panic, was mainly caused by trust 450 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,640 companies, which were state charted entities that competed 451 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,480 with banks for deposits. Because these trusts were not 452 00:23:04,480 --> 00:23:07,720 part of the central payment system and thus processed only a 453 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,760 small amount of payments, they did not hold a large amount of 454 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:14,360 cash relative to deposits. To earn profits, they made as 455 00:23:14,360 --> 00:23:17,320 many loans as possible. After a series of events in 456 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:22,120 October 1907 set off a rush for withdrawal, several trust funds 457 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,760 faced a run and were forced to suspend credit and liquidate 458 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:30,240 assets, acting as a catalyst for a larger fire sale in financial 459 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,640 markets. To save the financial system, JP 460 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:36,720 Morgan, owner of the eponymous bank, and a small number of 461 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,520 other financial leaders individually chose which banks 462 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:41,840 to bail out. This helped government policy 463 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:45,280 makers realize that when faced with the crisis, the financial 464 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,800 system as then constituted would rely on a privileged group of 465 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:52,120 individuals seeking to maximize their own profits, rather than 466 00:23:52,120 --> 00:23:54,360 institutions that had an obligation to protect the 467 00:23:54,360 --> 00:23:56,520 public's interest. OK, that sounds nice. 468 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,960 You're like, wow, you know what? That's that's so true. 469 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:03,600 Like this 1907 crisis. All right, I'm going to curse 470 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:06,320 and I apologize, guys. You know what the biggest 471 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,240 motherfucking crisis in U.S. history was? 472 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,720 The 1933 Depression. You know what? 473 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:13,560 The second biggest, 2008. You know what happened? 474 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:15,960 The central Bank was there. It was there. 475 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:18,000 It existed. It was established. 476 00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,440 What the fuck happened? They're completely ignoring 477 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:23,480 that, Completely ignoring that. Completely ignoring the fact 478 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:28,600 that we still have not completely gone over 2008. 479 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:32,040 The wealth redistribution, the fact that it's taking the 480 00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,520 opportunities from the lower and middle classes, which 481 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,400 disproportionately are the zoomers and the millennials, 482 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:41,600 doesn't allow them to buy a house like, like, yes, there's 483 00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:44,560 consequences to this. And that all happened. 484 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:48,120 That all happened when the government had control. 485 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,840 That all happened when they had the central bank that they're 486 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,000 touting. So the fact that they're picking 487 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,320 and choosing dates, Nineteen O 7, what about 1933? 488 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:59,000 That's not a convenient date. So they can't say that, right. 489 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:00,840 What about 2008? They can't say that. 490 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:02,480 That's not a convenient date. Right. 491 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:08,640 So again, forgive me if I don't believe his shtick and saying 492 00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:11,000 yeah, the government prints money and like it kind of 493 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:15,000 borrows months. And like if you say that, then 494 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,240 you don't have to answer. You don't have to. 495 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:19,880 You don't have to actually answer to what is happening. 496 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,240 You don't have to answer to the unintended consequences or maybe 497 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:27,000 they are intended who knows, right, of what a central banking 498 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:30,440 system has done to this country. And I and and I can't help to 499 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,760 think of Ron Paul's and you know we have the Bitcoin veterans 500 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:36,680 here. But you know, I don't think it's 501 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,080 a coincidence that the bloodiest century in human history was 502 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:42,560 also the century of of of central banking. 503 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,720 That's on my quote, that's Ron Paul's quote. 504 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,760 But I mean like is that what you're, is that what you guys 505 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,440 are standing up for? Like is that what you know that 506 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,560 is, is that what it's about? I think it's a bunch of BS in my 507 00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:57,440 opinion. And and if you continue down the 508 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:02,800 court like for example look, look at this guys, look at this 509 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:07,440 a a a taxonomy of digital assets and central bank money. 510 00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:10,680 Look, look what's in the middle. Everybody, right? 511 00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:13,440 But no, remember, they're not working on the CBDCS. 512 00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:15,480 That's impossible, right? It's coming out of the White 513 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,200 House, right? Central bank, money, cash. 514 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,440 You know, cryptocurrency stable coins, NFTS, crypto assets, 515 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,720 digital assets and CBDCS are perfect. 516 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,280 They're right in the middle. They have all the benefits of 517 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,480 the two. So again, don't. 518 00:26:29,800 --> 00:26:32,040 Don't pay attention to what they say. 519 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:36,240 Pay attention to what they do. And remember, just like the 520 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:39,840 Bible says, it's basically an intergalactic invasion into this 521 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:42,280 space through people. I'm telling you, it's what all 522 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,240 the ancients said. It's what they warned of. 523 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,240 It's what we're dealing with. They're demons. 524 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:50,720 So, yeah, man, I, I, I, I just, I don't know what to say. 525 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:54,800 Like a bunch of BS, you know, like, that's my take on all 526 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:57,360 this. Anyways, Opti, I'm gonna start 527 00:26:57,360 --> 00:26:59,200 with you and then we'll pass it on to the OH. 528 00:26:59,480 --> 00:27:01,640 My God, I'm in tears. I'm in tears. 529 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,160 That was hilarious. That was a good segue. 530 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,280 That was a good segue, Nico. Good stuff, Good stuff. 531 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:06,560 That's good entertainment, I'll tell you. 532 00:27:06,560 --> 00:27:09,320 All right. First and foremost I really love 533 00:27:09,320 --> 00:27:13,480 the the take you're you're saying on today's show but 534 00:27:13,480 --> 00:27:15,440 taking the more like norm you take here. 535 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:19,240 You know like the MMM tears the Modern Monetary Theory guys 536 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:23,160 people, women and men out there. Like they're a complete joke. 537 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,720 Like I seriously don't believe that they even believe the 538 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:28,720 nonsense that they say publicly but they still come out and say 539 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:31,120 this stuff. And and the worst part in my 540 00:27:31,120 --> 00:27:34,840 opinion is that people eat this up, that people actually believe 541 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:38,200 this is how economics works and this is the best for the economy 542 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:39,400 or this is the best for the world. 543 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,360 And it's like you guys are so detached from reality. 544 00:27:42,360 --> 00:27:44,360 It it goes back to what we always say about the 545 00:27:44,360 --> 00:27:46,960 brainwashing and and the psyoping out there and the 546 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:50,000 gaslighting and that this is the only way to have a functional 547 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:53,240 modern economy and all this nonsense when all of us, you 548 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:57,360 know, left Bell IQ bit corners that are Austrian bit corners, 549 00:27:57,360 --> 00:27:59,800 they're like look humans act purposefully like you. 550 00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:03,000 You don't need to influence people to spend their money. 551 00:28:03,000 --> 00:28:06,080 They will do that anyway. And This is why we always say on 552 00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,960 the show constantly, we're probably a broken record at this 553 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:10,120 point. It's like, just simplify your 554 00:28:10,120 --> 00:28:11,640 life. Guys like seek the simple 555 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,000 answers. It's simply Bitcoin saving 556 00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,600 Bitcoin. This is how you protect 557 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,000 yourself. Because even these guys and I, I 558 00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,600 love how Nico framed this because they couldn't even 559 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:24,800 answer the the questions like simply they're they're even lost 560 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,280 in their own lives at this. Point I I just don't. 561 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,360 I I don't think that I totally agree. 562 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,560 I totally agree. Much easier to just play dumb. 563 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,880 It's so much, 'cause then then it's like, oh, they just don't 564 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:38,840 know any better. But they're they're trying like, 565 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:42,240 they're trying to like, it's so much easier to do that than 566 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,640 being like the malicious twirling your mustache. 567 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:47,160 It's like, yeah, the government prints money like, like, it 568 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:50,920 reminds me of that politician the in California, right, where 569 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:53,480 he literally said the quiet part out loud, right. 570 00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,440 He's like. Brad Sherman, my favorite 571 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,120 politician. He's like, yeah, the US 572 00:28:57,120 --> 00:29:00,160 government prints money, but we're the US government. 573 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,080 Like, I don't think that would be a very popular stance with 574 00:29:04,080 --> 00:29:05,720 the portion of the population. Right. 575 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:08,840 So I think it's a lot easier to just be like, oh, well yeah, 576 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:10,040 yeah. I mean they. 577 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:13,440 I'm actually not qualified to answer this question, bro. 578 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:15,560 Economic adviser of the president. 579 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,400 Who the fuck is? Well, Nico, going further, going 580 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,720 further, they can't outright say, yes, we are trying to steal 581 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,800 from you as much as we can because most people would freak 582 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:30,240 out. And I think that's why MMT or 583 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:33,160 modern economics, quote UN quote, is so complicated on 584 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,840 purpose. It's all engineered to confuse 585 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:37,480 you so you get lost in the rabbit hole. 586 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,720 So you really don't understand what's happening and that's why 587 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:42,720 they come out here and and act stupid. 588 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:44,840 So they're like, oh man, I don't know, it's super complicated. 589 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:46,840 You you wouldn't get it. It's like, yeah, we're trying to 590 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:49,120 steal from you and we make it complicated on purpose. 591 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:51,600 Anyways, let's go to Alex. Alex, jump in. 592 00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,120 I I think that's all. I think that's all correct. 593 00:29:54,120 --> 00:29:58,040 I agree that this guy probably actually knows he has to pretend 594 00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,480 he doesn't know like and there's a couple of parts that you 595 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:03,080 mentioned here. Number one, do these people 596 00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:07,400 actually believe this nonsense that they're spouting or I I 597 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,080 don't think that they necessarily do. 598 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:12,040 I think there's an agenda and then they will create a certain 599 00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:13,560 narrative. They'll create a certain amount 600 00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,320 of propaganda. And and there are a lot of 601 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,160 people who aren't that smart who will believe this nonsense. 602 00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:23,000 But I do believe these guys know what they're doing. 603 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,120 I do believe that. Nico, you mentioned that it 604 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,040 looked like a deflection possibly. 605 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,440 I agree with that 100%. I think he was absolutely 606 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:34,720 deflecting. I think that all of this stuff 607 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:38,360 is made intentionally obscure and complex and difficult to 608 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:39,440 understand. Why? 609 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:42,640 Because it stops people from digging too far into the con. 610 00:30:43,800 --> 00:30:48,600 The other thing about it is really what she's saying is 611 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,640 she's getting at the root of the of the issue, which is, well, if 612 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,960 they're just going to print all this money and they can print 613 00:30:53,960 --> 00:30:55,880 all this money, what's the point of borrowing it? 614 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,920 It's the same question that gets asked by people like, well, if 615 00:30:59,920 --> 00:31:02,160 they're going to print a trillion dollars every hundred 616 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:05,760 days, why do we pay taxes? And the answer is essentially 617 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:09,160 the same. See, if they pretend that 618 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:13,280 they're borrowing it right, that gives it an air of of moral a 619 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,400 cover. That sort of implies that it's 620 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:19,200 going to get pay back later. So it's not really just outright 621 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,920 printing the money. And the same is true for the for 622 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:25,160 the tax thing. Like if they just stopped doing 623 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,680 that, we're borrowing it and going to pay it back. 624 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:30,840 And if they just stopped doing the we need your taxes and 625 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,960 instead just printed whatever freaking they amount they wanted 626 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:39,840 that would would take the mask off the well, I I guess you 627 00:31:39,840 --> 00:31:42,480 would just see it for what it is like this is clown world. 628 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:44,840 Like nobody would take it seriously anymore. 629 00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:48,280 Confidence in the United States. Dollar would implode and the 630 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:50,720 whole world would be like, holy shit, this whole thing's a con. 631 00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,600 And it's obvious. Yeah, yeah. 632 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:55,880 Well, remember Stephanie's very famous. 633 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:57,360 I'm. I'm pretty sure it's stuff to 634 00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,920 Stephanie Count and who who came out and said, you know and every 635 00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:01,280 other economist out there, debts. 636 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:02,440 What's it? Debts. 637 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,440 Money we owe ourselves, Alex. So why are you so selfish? 638 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:09,000 It's. Utterly ridiculous, man. 639 00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,280 I'll jump in, Shane. Yeah, let's. 640 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,200 Let's understand first and foremost we are in economic 641 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,240 warfare and I think this is maybe something that we kind of 642 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:20,800 bring to the table that we maybe a lot of people don't see is 643 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:25,400 when we go in or we do any sort of revolutionary, you know, 644 00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,400 operations in another country, whether it's you know, military 645 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,640 or you know three letter agencies. 646 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,240 One of the first things that we do is we start hitting them 647 00:32:34,240 --> 00:32:37,840 economically years before, whether it's sanctions, whether 648 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,760 it's, you know, cutting off ports or whatever we have to do 649 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,800 in terms of blockades. And that's where America 650 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:45,440 started. I think we really ramped it up 651 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:49,240 into high gear in 2020 when you started to see the the 652 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,440 government come out. And if you didn't do certain 653 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:54,880 things with certain medical, you know, vaccines that were coming 654 00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,800 out at that time, they started forcing thinking people out of 655 00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,840 positions in, you know, in in the economy. 656 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:03,800 And when you do that, what you're left with is a bunch of 657 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:07,320 yes men probably that aren't as good at their job. 658 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:10,920 And you you're starting to see the 2nd and 3rd order effects of 659 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:14,640 that in in America now from 20, 2021-2022. 660 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:19,080 As as those companies are now starting to really kind of go 661 00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:23,000 through the the death rows this, this economic warfare plan that 662 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,400 they have is is coming, you know full circle the idea that this 663 00:33:26,400 --> 00:33:30,360 guy is, is smart, yeah, maybe he is obviously Columbia 664 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,400 University. But there's also this side of 665 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:34,840 what happens in these revolutions with three letter 666 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:38,280 agencies out there where they will literally install these 667 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:40,440 guys who are that are fart sniffers, right? 668 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,560 Like these guys will sit there and sniff their own farts long 669 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:46,160 enough and believe everything, you know, all the accolades and 670 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,240 everything else that's been heaved on them by academia and 671 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,760 this Fiat system. And then they get put into these 672 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,120 positions and a lot of times these guys are recommended or 673 00:33:55,120 --> 00:33:57,640 pushed to the top by the three letter agencies. 674 00:33:57,880 --> 00:34:00,520 So if you start to, if we really understand and hey, maybe this 675 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:03,960 guy, maybe he is really, really bright, but maybe he's also a 676 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:06,240 useful idiot at the same time. Both through. 677 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,639 Right. And so if you're if we were 678 00:34:08,639 --> 00:34:10,800 watching this guy and saying yeah you know maybe he does 679 00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,320 maybe he doesn't or maybe he's so far down the line because 680 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:17,000 what they what they know they need is an economic collapse of 681 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:20,320 the United States of America to to push this thing full circle. 682 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:24,080 So if if if we all if we understand this in a in a bigger 683 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:28,719 context and there are obviously MMT is is coming or on the way 684 00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:31,920 and CBD CS are right behind it. You know the idea that you know 685 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:36,400 we're we're we're talking about you know Powell or any of these 686 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,760 others out there that you know we'll we'll get up in front of 687 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,040 microphones and and talk like they're experts that really 688 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:45,480 don't have any plan what way or another because they you can't 689 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,960 raise interest rates you can't lower interest rates And if if 690 00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:52,480 we were looking at it and going well obviously you know they 691 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:56,560 launched Fed now in the summer of 2023 that's a full on 692 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:58,480 admission that the dollars in deep shit. 693 00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:02,600 And if the dollars in deep in deep shit they know it, then 694 00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:04,800 they're going to have some sort of contingency plan because at 695 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:08,600 the end of the day, you know you have what, $220 trillion in 696 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:12,080 unfunded liabilities? Things begin to happen when you 697 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:16,720 begin to rob an entire populace of its savings and retirement. 698 00:35:16,720 --> 00:35:19,560 You told him that was going to be there without any sort of 699 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:22,200 backstop plan or a way out of that. 700 00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:24,920 So I don't know. Could be an extremely bright 701 00:35:24,920 --> 00:35:27,480 guy, but also a useful idiot for the state at the same time 702 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:30,520 because that way they can point at him and go, well that was the 703 00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:34,240 guy and now he's the guy instead of the the three letter agency 704 00:35:34,240 --> 00:35:35,680 taking the the hit. Yeah. 705 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:36,920 That's a really good point right. 706 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:38,800 The the level of statecraft, right. 707 00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:42,240 It is. I think it's it's lost upon a 708 00:35:42,240 --> 00:35:45,680 lot of people because you know these three, these three letter 709 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:49,200 agencies are are they've mastered regime change. 710 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:52,000 They've mastered controlling the populace. 711 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:56,040 They've mastered statecraft.

It goes on to say payments firm 780 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:41,200 Block has begun a dollar cost averaging program to add to its 781 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:45,160 already sizable Bitcoin stack. Led by CEO Jack Dorsey, the 782 00:39:45,160 --> 00:39:49,240 company in April began using 10% of its monthly Bitcoin related 783 00:39:49,240 --> 00:39:52,960 gross profit to buy additional Bitcoin, with plans to do this 784 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:55,240 each month for the remainder of 2024. 785 00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:59,760 For perspective, Block had $80 million in Bitcoin gross profit. 786 00:40:00,080 --> 00:40:02,880 In the first quarter, according to its earning results, where 787 00:40:02,880 --> 00:40:05,960 that level of profit to continue through the rest of the year, 788 00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:09,920 the company under the program would add another 24,000,000 789 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:11,680 worth of Bitcoin to its balance sheet. 790 00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:14,400 Block already had substantial Bitcoin holdings, having 791 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:20,600 purchased 4709 bitcoins in October 2020, another 3318 792 00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:24,560 tokens in early 2021. At today's price of a of about 793 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:29,040 59,000, that Bitcoin is now worth roughly 4.7 billion. 794 00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:32,800 Alongside that news, the company also released its Bitcoin 795 00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:36,320 Blueprint for Corporate for corporate balance Sheets, in 796 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:39,440 which it describes the process through which it is able to 797 00:40:39,440 --> 00:40:43,200 acquire large amounts of the crypto without unduly moving the 798 00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:46,800 market and how it custodies, ensures and accounts for the 799 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:48,800 holdings. Look, I I can't. 800 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:52,320 And I and I believe, if my memory serves me correctly, I 801 00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,920 believe Michael Saylor did something very similar. 802 00:40:55,240 --> 00:41:01,400 But this is incredibly important and the reason for that is this 803 00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,840 is the this is what's going to happen this epoch, right? 804 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:06,880 Michael Sailor has been vindicated. 805 00:41:07,160 --> 00:41:10,720 Clearly, the MicroStrategy Bitcoin strategy is working. 806 00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:14,040 MicroStrategy has outperformed everything else. 807 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:17,560 And here you have another very notable company. 808 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:22,240 You have a notable figure, Jack Dorsey, basically saying like, 809 00:41:22,240 --> 00:41:24,640 look, we're adopting a Bitcoin strategy. 810 00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:28,200 We're going to put 10% of our profits each quarter into 811 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,440 Bitcoin. And here's the thing, as number 812 00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:34,160 go up does its thing, market forces start to do what market 813 00:41:34,160 --> 00:41:36,600 forces do best. And then other companies that 814 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,560 are competitors of block, other companies that are competitors 815 00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:43,800 of MicroStrategy start to be at a start to be at a major 816 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:47,600 disadvantage for them not adopting a Bitcoin strategy as 817 00:41:47,600 --> 00:41:49,840 well. So I think Jack Dorsey is 818 00:41:49,840 --> 00:41:53,120 definitely accelerating massive adoption at least on the 819 00:41:53,120 --> 00:41:56,680 corporate level with this move. This is very, very positive 820 00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:59,080 news. And remember, guys like, look, 821 00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:01,760 there's not enough Bitcoin to go around, right? 822 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:05,600 So like the the, the daily supply that already got cut in 823 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:07,720 half, it's just getting gobbled up. 824 00:42:07,720 --> 00:42:09,320 What do you think's gonna happen, right? 825 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:13,280 It's it's just common sense. And then just kind of, and if 826 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:15,480 you connect this with what we were talking about yesterday, 827 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:18,840 the second largest European bank is they're not buying Bitcoin 828 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,120 directly. I don't know if they can, but 829 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:23,640 they announced that they're buying exposure to Bitcoin 830 00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:28,080 through Blackrock's Bitcoin ETF. Now the second bank in in the 831 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:31,320 second largest bank in Europe, BNP Paribas. 832 00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:32,640 I think I pronounced that correctly. 833 00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:36,040 Now they have the cheat code. Now they have a competitive 834 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:40,280 advantage to every other bank that is not adopting a Bitcoin 835 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:42,040 strategy. So I think game theory is going 836 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,160 to take a foot very, very quickly. 837 00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:47,880 As you know this cycle continues to ramp up as number go up does 838 00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:50,560 its thing and block is going to have an advantage. 839 00:42:50,560 --> 00:42:52,200 This bank is going to have an advantage. 840 00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:53,840 Micro strategy is going to have an advantage. 841 00:42:54,240 --> 00:42:57,480 And I think the likes of Facebook, Google, you know, all 842 00:42:57,480 --> 00:42:59,920 the Tesla, all the Tesla already has, I think, I believe. 843 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:03,440 But these companies, they're gonna get left behind if they 844 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:06,200 don't start putting Bitcoin on their balance sheet. 845 00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:08,760 And look, a lot of these companies have a tremendous 846 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:11,800 amount of cash, right? And it's like sitting on a 847 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:15,760 melting ice cube, right? They can compensate for losing 848 00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,640 that purchasing power on a yearly basis, which they're OK 849 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:20,280 with because they're so profitable. 850 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:23,920 They can compensate for that if they just put 1%, two percent, 851 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:27,200 3% of their cash reserves into Bitcoin. 852 00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:30,040 And I think it's just a matter of time and you're starting to 853 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:34,000 see the the damn break with these types of moves. 854 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,480 So once again, I think Jack Dorsey leading the charge and I 855 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:39,040 think it's a good thing. Anyways, I want to get your 856 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:41,240 guys's takes. Start off with Alex. 857 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:42,680 I feel like this is up your alley. 858 00:43:42,800 --> 00:43:44,560 What's up, man? Yeah. 859 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:49,200 So it this is not surprising to me at all actually we've been 860 00:43:49,200 --> 00:43:51,680 saying this for a long time. But even back in the you know 861 00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,800 when I was the host of Cafe Bitcoin doing that talking about 862 00:43:55,800 --> 00:44:00,360 how like the sailor sort of playbook of of using your 863 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:03,800 balance sheet using the profits from your company to put more 864 00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:07,400 Bitcoin on your balance sheet as a as a as a part of your 865 00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:10,520 treasury. Like is it becomes a no brainer 866 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,320 overtime. And I think you know one thing 867 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:15,120 we've been saying is you're going to see lots of companies 868 00:44:15,240 --> 00:44:17,240 copy this playbook doubt by the thousands. 869 00:44:17,240 --> 00:44:19,560 I think in time you'll see thousands of companies doing 870 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:23,480 this and eventually if it's not already happening you're going 871 00:44:23,480 --> 00:44:25,880 to see central banks doing it. Now when central banks do it, 872 00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:26,840 they're not going to announce it. 873 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:29,680 That'll be done, done completely in secret. 874 00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,880 You'll find out much much later that they've done this. 875 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:37,880 But I think all of these things are inevitable. 100% I think 876 00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:40,080 it's inevitable. The game theory is the game 877 00:44:40,080 --> 00:44:41,360 theory. Anyways guys. 878 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:45,520 There's 900 of you guys watching live between YouTube Rumble and 879 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:46,840 X. If you guys are enjoying the 880 00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:49,840 show right now, make sure to smash that like button. 881 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:52,960 It tells the algos to push the orange signal forward. 882 00:44:53,200 --> 00:44:54,800 Shane, what's your take on this brother? 883 00:44:55,080 --> 00:44:58,280 I think it's really interesting to see European banks going in 884 00:44:58,280 --> 00:45:01,080 through the BlackRock ETF. When you when you understand you 885 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:04,000 know who BlackRock is, is basically the Fed's trading arm 886 00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:06,480 and that they're storing these things in Coinbase. 887 00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:09,240 You know this this might be anecdotal but the idea that 888 00:45:09,240 --> 00:45:13,440 you're going to move your your reserves from Europe over to the 889 00:45:13,720 --> 00:45:17,400 US into Coinbase and God knows if they if they ever fork the 890 00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:20,360 code through BlackRock and then you have to take the tokens that 891 00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:23,800 they fork to and that money is just sitting there for the the 892 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:27,600 Federal Reserve raises a lot of questions in what's going on for 893 00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:29,440 me. And I I can't think that they've 894 00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:32,640 done their due diligence and and understanding any of this in 895 00:45:32,640 --> 00:45:35,200 terms of Bitcoin. But yeah it it definitely looks 896 00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:40,520 like it's it's I don't know it looks like this is going to 897 00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:43,120 continue. The side that I see, you know on 898 00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:46,880 a daily basis over at Swan is you know the we have more and 899 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:50,760 more businesses coming in with with lots and lots and lots of 900 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:53,280 money and we're in a crab market right now. 901 00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:56,480 So if we're in a crab market and we're seeing people getting out 902 00:45:56,480 --> 00:45:59,320 of the blocks and maybe this is the slow part, you know, later 903 00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:02,640 on the summer this fall as we head into, you know, the 904 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:05,840 election season and everything else that's going on, I I 905 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:09,720 totally expect this to accelerate. 100% and I actually 906 00:46:09,720 --> 00:46:11,200 agree. I it's just game theory. 907 00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:15,120 Like it's just like it's just like it's a common sense, right 908 00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,360 where where this is going, Opti, what's your take, brother? 909 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,880 Yeah, well, first and foremost, I absolutely love seeing Jack 910 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:25,240 Dorsey turn Block into a de facto Bitcoin company. 911 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:26,760 You know, they're making the bit key. 912 00:46:26,760 --> 00:46:29,160 They got TBD where they're doing development. 913 00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:32,520 We have cash app that you can not only buy Bitcoin, but you 914 00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:37,080 can turn your your corporate payments into Bitcoin. 915 00:46:37,080 --> 00:46:41,080 It's just like Jack Dorsey in my opinion is killing it right now. 916 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:43,280 And I know the Chad's going to say, well, he was part of 917 00:46:43,280 --> 00:46:46,520 Twitter and all that stuff, but what he's doing now I think 918 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:49,280 makes up for a lot of the stuff that you might hate him for. 919 00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:52,040 And I absolutely love seeing this move right here. 920 00:46:52,240 --> 00:46:55,240 You know, just doing a consistent monthly buy pressure 921 00:46:55,240 --> 00:46:56,920 for Bitcoin heading into a bull run. 922 00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:59,200 It's going to be absolutely marvelous to watch. 923 00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:01,440 And like we're saying more companies are going to follow 924 00:47:01,440 --> 00:47:04,920 this lead and everyone out there, I highly suggest you read 925 00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:08,000 the press release. It's because it's a great read 926 00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:11,480 and he absolutely open sourced. His whole strategy wants people 927 00:47:11,480 --> 00:47:13,800 to come talk to him and follow lead. 928 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:17,320 And I think like Shane just said, when we see other 929 00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:20,480 corporations follow this, it's really when things are going to 930 00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:23,200 kick into OverDrive. I saw Luke Brodes do a great 931 00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:27,320 thread this morning about the Apple stock buybacks. 932 00:47:27,320 --> 00:47:30,800 They did 110 billion stock buyback this morning. 933 00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:32,400 I think it's the largest one ever. 934 00:47:32,720 --> 00:47:36,160 And imagine if they did that and then did the sailor move and 935 00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:39,000 bought Bitcoin. It's like I don't think people 936 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:41,840 really understand what the game's being played right now 937 00:47:41,840 --> 00:47:44,880 and of course you know we're more freedom go up Maxie's but 938 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:48,840 everyone loves number go up. So it's once this playbook 939 00:47:48,840 --> 00:47:51,560 starts to really kick into OverDrive it's going to be 940 00:47:51,560 --> 00:47:53,840 absolute fireworks. So it's just men. 941 00:47:54,240 --> 00:47:56,800 We're still in the early endings and shouts at the Jack Dorsey 942 00:47:56,800 --> 00:48:00,360 for for again putting his money where his mouth is and and just 943 00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:03,240 being like yeah we're going to consistently DCA into Bitcoin. 944 00:48:03,640 --> 00:48:07,240 And yeah it's not a sailor move where they're buying hundreds of 945 00:48:07,240 --> 00:48:11,720 millions or 100,000 coins but every month a consistent what 946 00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:15,040 what they say they're going to buy 2524 million in the this 947 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:17,640 year. So that's going to be you know a 948 00:48:17,640 --> 00:48:21,480 consistent couple of million buy pressure every month. 949 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:23,920 That's going to be great. That's going to be setting the 950 00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:27,320 floor And then once other people follow this, I think you guys 951 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:29,640 are ready for what's coming. You guys are too bearish in the 952 00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:31,000 chat. I can see you guys. 953 00:48:31,200 --> 00:48:31,880 It's bro. It's. 954 00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:34,880 Going wait, actually Mikos too. Bearish in the chat. 955 00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:37,040 It's going, it's going up, it's going up forever. 956 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,560 It's going up forever. Anyways, the next topic that I 957 00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:41,960 wanted to talk about is optis exes. 958 00:48:41,960 --> 00:48:45,200 So first we're gonna start with, of course, you guys know 959 00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:49,240 Christine Lagarde, you guys know Augustine Carson. 960 00:48:49,560 --> 00:48:53,360 But breaking news, you guys didn't know this Brian Armstrong 961 00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:55,960 as well. So why don't, why don't want to 962 00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:58,000 talk about Brian Armstrong, Brian Armstrong? 963 00:49:01,160 --> 00:49:04,400 Looks like the guy from Dune. I had to figure out a Segway 964 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:08,520 somehow. Oh man. 965 00:49:08,720 --> 00:49:12,120 I think he's got a much bigger Dome, like the guy from Dune, 966 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:15,880 just with a bigger egghead. Bro Opti Opti gets plugged in. 967 00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:19,040 Man Opti Opti shoots high. Hold on, hold on. 968 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:22,080 I'm on the full screen myself. I'm trying to get the bag. 969 00:49:22,080 --> 00:49:23,280 All right. Can you blame me? 970 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:25,560 I need to stack more sets. Oh man. 971 00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:27,960 OK, so why am I talking about Brian Armstrong? 972 00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:31,360 Look, I think all of us here, right? 973 00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:33,600 Not a fan of Coinbase, obviously. 974 00:49:33,600 --> 00:49:36,360 Shit, the largest shit coin casino in the United States. 975 00:49:36,720 --> 00:49:41,520 However, they finally integrated Bitcoin's lightning network and 976 00:49:41,520 --> 00:49:46,800 the reality is that they have a a ridiculous amount of of users. 977 00:49:46,800 --> 00:49:50,480 So I think this is a very positive for the Lightning 978 00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:52,920 Network. You know I I know that there is 979 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:57,320 a tremendous amount of pressure on Opti's X from Bitcoin Twitter 980 00:49:57,960 --> 00:50:01,640 and it seems like he you know he came through in in this sense. 981 00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:05,840 So I think this is great for for Bitcoin adoption for the 982 00:50:05,840 --> 00:50:08,840 lightning network and it kind of defeats the purpose for a lot of 983 00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:11,920 those shit coins that you know are being peddled on Coinbase 984 00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:14,440 right. You know cause a lot of the, a 985 00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:17,160 lot of the a lot of the narratives from people were that 986 00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:21,200 like look like you know this is faster than Bitcoin. 987 00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:23,800 Bitcoin can't scale. Now all of a sudden you know if 988 00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:27,600 they're offering lightning for withdraws like I mean it's kind 989 00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:30,560 of counter intuitive I would say but you know who would have 990 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:34,600 thought out of all people you know in this world you know 991 00:50:34,600 --> 00:50:39,280 Brian Armstrong, you know played such a a would say a a big role 992 00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:41,560 in in potentially lightning adoption. 993 00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:45,920 So anyways, I know that is not exactly the the the most 994 00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:50,720 bitcoiner thing to say, but you know Coinbase has a massive user 995 00:50:50,720 --> 00:50:51,320 base. That's right. 996 00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,320 I think the last time there was like 100 million users or 997 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:55,240 something. Anyways, Opti, what's your take 998 00:50:55,240 --> 00:50:56,880 on this? And then we'll move on to Shane 999 00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:59,440 and Alex. Yeah, well, you know, I'm not a 1000 00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:02,800 big fan of Coinbase, even though Coinbase is like the first 1001 00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:04,520 platform that I bought Bitcoin with. 1002 00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:08,040 And you know, they're still the biggest platform out there and 1003 00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:11,360 people are people still don't understand that, like Coinbase 1004 00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:14,360 is like, it's not just an exchange. 1005 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:15,880 But hey, that's all beside the point. 1006 00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:18,960 I'll give them their props, I'll give them their flowers when 1007 00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:21,160 when they do something good. And this is one of those good 1008 00:51:21,160 --> 00:51:23,160 things. It's like now their whole shit 1009 00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:25,720 coin narrative in my opinion, is absolutely dead. 1010 00:51:25,720 --> 00:51:29,880 I haven't used this, but I love to see when more exchanges start 1011 00:51:29,880 --> 00:51:31,880 using Lightning it. I think that's an important 1012 00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:33,600 thing to see. And shots at the Lightning 1013 00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:35,560 Goats, he says he tried it and it's absolute trash. 1014 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:37,680 So hey, you know, I haven't used it. 1015 00:51:37,840 --> 00:51:40,720 I haven't used it, but at least they are making moves. 1016 00:51:40,720 --> 00:51:43,960 You know Brian Armstrong, I think it what was it like last 1017 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:47,680 year? Nico the Walker America was like 1018 00:51:47,680 --> 00:51:50,560 tweeting at him about using lightning and he didn't even 1019 00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:53,240 know that he could use it. Or like, no, his lightning 1020 00:51:53,240 --> 00:51:55,880 addresses and now at least you know. 1021 00:51:56,240 --> 00:51:57,320 Yeah, I thought it was. An e-mail. 1022 00:51:57,320 --> 00:51:59,840 And at least now they're making some moves. 1023 00:51:59,880 --> 00:52:03,120 It might be what, like 2 years? Two years late? 1024 00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:05,320 But at least they're making moves to do it. 1025 00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:08,320 So hey, it's a good thing to see. 1026 00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:11,480 I can't wait to see it. Basically every Bitcoin exchange 1027 00:52:11,480 --> 00:52:15,480 and even shit coin casinos use lightning because in my opinion 1028 00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:18,240 it's it disproves the whole narrative for shit coins. 1029 00:52:18,240 --> 00:52:20,520 Like that's the whole reason for most shit coins existence. 1030 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:22,440 It's like oh bitcoin's slow and clunky. 1031 00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:24,400 It only has seven transactions per second bro. 1032 00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:26,880 Like it's like now it just use lightning. 1033 00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:29,240 This is, this is this is a good thing to see. 1034 00:52:29,240 --> 00:52:39,120 But hey, hopefully, dude, Oh my. God oh man, that's hilarious. 1035 00:52:39,560 --> 00:52:42,440 Anyways, Shane, Alex, what's your guys takes on this? 1036 00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:45,280 I mean. Brian Armstrong is that guy 1037 00:52:45,280 --> 00:52:48,480 that's just notoriously slipped through the figures of the US 1038 00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:52,640 government and securities fraud. But I don't know, I I've got 1039 00:52:52,640 --> 00:52:55,640 clients that come to me every day that are trying to run away 1040 00:52:55,640 --> 00:52:59,000 from Coinbase as fast as possible, and if they're 1041 00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:01,760 introducing Lightning to help them run away, that's great. 1042 00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:04,240 The problem is if they're Lightning runs like they're on 1043 00:53:04,240 --> 00:53:07,480 chain withdraws, but it's still, you know, zero, right? 1044 00:53:07,520 --> 00:53:10,360 You know, guy after guy after guy that's trying to get away 1045 00:53:10,360 --> 00:53:12,840 from these kinds of like, hey, they're not allowing me to take 1046 00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:16,480 my Bitcoin off their exchange. I don't know, maybe it works, 1047 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:18,760 maybe it doesn't. If it's trash and we're already 1048 00:53:18,760 --> 00:53:21,560 hearing that it's trash, I wouldn't be the least bit 1049 00:53:21,560 --> 00:53:24,160 surprised. You know, when markets move and 1050 00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:27,600 they want to, you know, clamp down and have a an issue with 1051 00:53:27,600 --> 00:53:30,640 their software or firmware or user interface or whatever, 1052 00:53:30,640 --> 00:53:32,000 they're going to blame it on that day. 1053 00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:34,560 I I think that's still going to happen over there at Coinbase, 1054 00:53:34,720 --> 00:53:37,240 so. Yeah, to change point, how are 1055 00:53:37,240 --> 00:53:40,880 they going to shut down now? You know for operations when 1056 00:53:41,040 --> 00:53:42,280 they're using the Lightning, right? 1057 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:43,480 Yeah, when the circuit breaker was. 1058 00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:45,680 Lightning, Alex, what's your take on this? 1059 00:53:46,640 --> 00:53:52,400 I think you got to remember that Coinbase is that they generate a 1060 00:53:52,400 --> 00:53:55,000 majority of their revenue by churning shit coins. 1061 00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:58,120 I think it's something like 80% of their revenue is generated by 1062 00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:00,880 by churning shit coins. And they're they're in a 1063 00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:05,360 situation right now where the SEC is still coming after him 1064 00:54:05,360 --> 00:54:08,840 for this. Like there's a fair chance that 1065 00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:11,400 the SEC will prevail in this situation. 1066 00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:16,440 And if that is the case, then the reality is, is that Coinbase 1067 00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:18,960 has been making a market in unregistered securities for a 1068 00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:23,320 really long time. And if they're forced to stop 1069 00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:26,240 doing that, that's a huge part of their revenue base. 1070 00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:31,680 So it's possible that they might just be looking at it from a 1071 00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:35,480 strategic perspective, going man, we may have to repair 1072 00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:38,520 relationships with the bitcoiners, because if we have 1073 00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:40,800 to stop selling shit coins, we're kind of fucked as a 1074 00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:43,080 business.

We're veterans. 1130 00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:42,560 We're trying to put people back on the mission. 1131 00:57:42,720 --> 00:57:46,280 Guys that have maybe found some nihilism in their lives don't 1132 00:57:46,280 --> 00:57:50,720 have a lot of hope and still deep down want that freedom, 1133 00:57:50,720 --> 00:57:54,080 that American idea, self sovereignty, the little white 1134 00:57:54,080 --> 00:57:55,720 picket fence family and all that fun stuff. 1135 00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:58,600 We're trying to help guys actually realize that by 1136 00:57:58,600 --> 00:58:02,400 introducing them to Bitcoin, get them reintroduced to society, so 1137 00:58:02,400 --> 00:58:06,240 to speak, and give them a mission that is going to, you 1138 00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:09,760 know, empower them and and take charge of that passion that I 1139 00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:12,120 think they signed up for, for the military, you know, in good 1140 00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:15,080 faith and turn it into, you know, this this bright orange 1141 00:58:15,080 --> 00:58:16,360 future that we're all looking at. 1142 00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:20,560 So that's that's kind of a very high level idea of why and and 1143 00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:23,360 how we form Bitcoin veterans. Yeah. 1144 00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:26,080 Alex, want to jump in? Yeah, sure. 1145 00:58:26,080 --> 00:58:29,920 So my perspective on it is, is that like, I think a lot of guys 1146 00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:33,480 who join the military, not all and gals do so because they are 1147 00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:36,320 what I call sheepdogs. They have an instinct inside of 1148 00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:38,040 them to protect other human beings. 1149 00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:40,440 And then they, they signed up for the military thinking that 1150 00:58:40,440 --> 00:58:41,520 that's what they were going to get to do. 1151 00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:42,800 They were going to protect their people. 1152 00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:47,200 And as it turns out, I think a lot of guys who go in figure out 1153 00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:51,000 after a while that it's not what they thought it was like they'll 1154 00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:53,880 get out and they'll realize, man, this is a gigantic machine 1155 00:58:54,400 --> 00:58:57,800 feeding a military industrial complex of non-stop forever 1156 00:58:57,800 --> 00:58:59,600 wars. And it's the forever wars stuff 1157 00:58:59,600 --> 00:59:01,320 that I think grates on a lot of veterans. 1158 00:59:01,320 --> 00:59:04,440 They get out and they're like, man, I dedicated my life to this 1159 00:59:04,440 --> 00:59:06,520 for X number of years. I signed the dotted line. 1160 00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:09,080 I agreed to go over and get shot at and possibly blown up and 1161 00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:12,480 dismembered for what? Like what are we doing here? 1162 00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:15,760 You know you think you're spreading freedom and protecting 1163 00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:18,520 in America when in reality what you're really doing is you're 1164 00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:21,760 just feeding this non-stop monster that is never satiated 1165 00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:24,280 and that monster is the military industrial complex. 1166 00:59:25,160 --> 00:59:27,640 They print the money. They pay those guys for the 1167 00:59:27,640 --> 00:59:30,400 bombs and the missiles and The Jets and all the things. 1168 00:59:30,960 --> 00:59:34,320 And some of those guys get really freaking rich and our 1169 00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:36,560 military. The guys who go out there and 1170 00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:41,520 and stand in the gap, go to foreign lands and and do the the 1171 00:59:41,520 --> 00:59:46,600 work of these people. You know they got to carry a lot 1172 00:59:46,600 --> 00:59:49,280 of bullshit with them for the rest of their freaking life 1173 00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:52,520 because of that.

You actually see the results. 1305 01:06:22,360 --> 01:06:25,600 And so yeah, these guys have done an amazing job and I, I 1306 01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:26,560 mean you know, I don't want to dox. 1307 01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:29,640 Anyway, I'll tell you, this is happening all around the US 1308 01:06:29,640 --> 01:06:32,240 right now and we're gonna talk about it a lot in Nashville. 1309 01:06:32,240 --> 01:06:35,760 So back in the Citadel room, if you're going to be in Nashville 1310 01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:38,640 and maybe you're a Bitcoin veteran or Bitcoin adjacent, you 1311 01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:41,800 can get in contact with us. We'll get you in there for a big 1312 01:06:41,800 --> 01:06:44,720 discount. But yeah, this this move to 1313 01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:48,720 create orange communities out there through Bitcoin veterans, 1314 01:06:48,720 --> 01:06:52,480 it's it's happening now and it is absolutely amazing to watch 1315 01:06:52,720 --> 01:06:56,800 these these communities start to gravitate around these guys who 1316 01:06:56,840 --> 01:06:59,240 have seen a thing or two and know if this thing or two 1317 01:06:59,240 --> 01:07:00,720 because of what they've done overseas. 1318 01:07:01,720 --> 01:07:03,480 Amazing. Dude, I mean it. 1319 01:07:03,480 --> 01:07:09,080 It's it's it's it's it's very important to have these 1320 01:07:09,080 --> 01:07:12,800 communities that you guys have built, like the these this 1321 01:07:12,800 --> 01:07:17,200 network of people that you can reach out to and they can rely 1322 01:07:17,200 --> 01:07:20,680 on you, you can rely on them. It's incredibly important. 1323 01:07:20,680 --> 01:07:24,480 And you know, of course I'm not a veteran, never went to war, 1324 01:07:24,680 --> 01:07:29,760 but you know, I think I've, I love reading about history, 1325 01:07:29,760 --> 01:07:31,080 right. And one of the things that I've 1326 01:07:31,080 --> 01:07:34,400 noticed is that when you go through conflict with with with 1327 01:07:34,520 --> 01:07:37,160 with your brothers, you you start to build a very, very 1328 01:07:37,160 --> 01:07:40,520 special bond that I I don't think that you can you can build 1329 01:07:40,520 --> 01:07:42,480 in any other type of scenario, right. 1330 01:07:43,480 --> 01:07:46,560 So you know the fact that you guys have been able to do this I 1331 01:07:46,560 --> 01:07:51,240 think is, is very important and not to say anything too direct, 1332 01:07:51,240 --> 01:07:55,080 but I think you know over the next couple of years you know 1333 01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:58,520 this, you know as as the separation of money and state 1334 01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:01,760 accelerates, you know I think these types of communities are, 1335 01:08:01,760 --> 01:08:06,320 are, are are vital for, for our cause anyways. 1336 01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:11,200 Can I can I say one thing to that really quickly is that, 1337 01:08:11,200 --> 01:08:13,520 yeah, I think you're right. Like when you get guys in 1338 01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:16,040 difficult circumstances, they build really strong bonds. 1339 01:08:16,040 --> 01:08:18,560 So that is true about dudes who've been in combat together. 1340 01:08:18,840 --> 01:08:21,319 And then all these veterans, regardless of service, have that 1341 01:08:21,319 --> 01:08:23,359 kind of thing going on. But I also want to say that, 1342 01:08:23,359 --> 01:08:26,160 like part of what I see for Bitcoin veterans going forward 1343 01:08:26,160 --> 01:08:29,920 in the future is, is that taking guys who weren't military and 1344 01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:33,120 doing things where where you face adversity together and you 1345 01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:35,520 you can build those bonds with dudes who've been through all 1346 01:08:35,520 --> 01:08:38,640 that kind of stuff too with guys who aren't, haven't been through 1347 01:08:38,640 --> 01:08:40,800 that kind of stuff because we just need to. 1348 01:08:40,800 --> 01:08:43,200 I think I think that's a big thing that's missing in in 1349 01:08:43,200 --> 01:08:46,560 Western culture is the ability to get around dudes who are 1350 01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:50,160 basically warrior archetypes. When you're not a warrior 1351 01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:53,319 archetype and sort of just hang out and learn things right, get 1352 01:08:53,319 --> 01:08:56,080 to get it. It's a it's an opportunity to 1353 01:08:56,080 --> 01:08:59,920 maybe if you're interested in doing that learn some stuff 1354 01:09:00,160 --> 01:09:02,600 whether that's survival skills where there's weren't going out 1355 01:09:02,600 --> 01:09:05,279 on the range learn how to shoot. Whether it's just like how do 1356 01:09:05,279 --> 01:09:07,479 these dudes approach life? Like a what how does this dude 1357 01:09:07,479 --> 01:09:09,520 approach his his citadel, what's he doing? 1358 01:09:09,520 --> 01:09:11,520 Like how is he raising his family, all these different 1359 01:09:11,520 --> 01:09:13,680 kinds of things. Like if you have an interest in 1360 01:09:13,680 --> 01:09:17,439 that, I I I think it's really important that BV continues to 1361 01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:20,040 not just grow with wet veterans, but everybody else. 1362 01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:21,760 We want to interact with everybody. 1363 01:09:22,479 --> 01:09:23,520 Absolutely.
