1
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:12,920
It's all going to zero against 
Bitcoin. 

2
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:23,720
It's going up for everyone. 
You're against Bitcoin. 

3
00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:28,920
You're against freedom. 
Yo, welcome to another episode 

4
00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:32,040
of Simply Bitcoin Live. 
We are your number one source 

5
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:34,160
for the peaceful Bitcoin 
revolution and curve breaking 

6
00:00:34,160 --> 00:00:35,360
news, culture and medical 
warfare. 

7
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,880
We will be your guide through 
the separation of money and 

8
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,160
state. 
We are back in our studios. 

9
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:46,080
It was a crazy week in Los 
Angeles, CA at the Pacific 

10
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,880
Bitcoin Festival. 
Opti was holding it down 

11
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,240
backstage, doing a bunch of 
interviews you should be 

12
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,220
dropping. 
Some of those very, very soon. 

13
00:00:54,220 --> 00:00:55,900
We got some pretty, pretty big 
names. 

14
00:00:55,900 --> 00:00:59,700
I think the one with Preston was
dropped over the weekend, but 

15
00:00:59,700 --> 00:01:02,740
yeah, it was a whole lot of fun.
I can't recommend Bitcoin 

16
00:01:03,140 --> 00:01:07,180
festivals and conferences the mo
more because that's really where

17
00:01:07,180 --> 00:01:10,300
you're going to find those, like
in real life connections, right?

18
00:01:10,300 --> 00:01:13,260
There's you can't replace that. 
You know as much as you know. 

19
00:01:13,260 --> 00:01:16,380
You interact on Bitcoin Twitter,
you go on YouTube, and you watch

20
00:01:16,380 --> 00:01:19,550
your favorite bitcoiners. 
When you meet in real life, 

21
00:01:19,630 --> 00:01:20,750
there's something special about 
it. 

22
00:01:20,750 --> 00:01:23,190
We're going to go to one more 
conference this year, the 

23
00:01:23,190 --> 00:01:29,030
unconfiscable conference thrown 
by Tone Base and Co in December 

24
00:01:29,030 --> 00:01:31,190
of this year. 
Hope to see you guys there. 

25
00:01:31,190 --> 00:01:33,870
Opti and I are going to be, 
we're going to be holding it 

26
00:01:33,870 --> 00:01:35,350
down. 
We'll probably have a news desk 

27
00:01:35,350 --> 00:01:37,270
and and such. 
So it's going to be a whole lot 

28
00:01:37,270 --> 00:01:39,870
of fun. 
Anyways, today we're going to 

29
00:01:39,870 --> 00:01:43,680
talk about. 
The one, the only, the most 

30
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:48,200
popular broadcaster on planet 
Earth, 11,000,000 views and 

31
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,920
listens per episode. 
We're going to talk about the 

32
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:53,680
man, the myth, the legend 
himself, Joe Rogan. 

33
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,120
And Joe Rogan is something that 
we've covered tremendously on 

34
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:02,080
this show because he is someone 
that is outside of the Bitcoin 

35
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,920
echo chamber, right? 
So it's like when Lex Friedman 

36
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,560
had Michael Saylor on his show 
when. 

37
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,080
Tucker back when he was on 
legacy media, when he had Diane 

38
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:16,440
Bokele, Max Kaiser, Matt Odell, 
Sorry, Marty Bent. 

39
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,280
Michael Saylor on on, you know 
on his show Tucker Carlson 

40
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,320
tonight to Tucker Carlson today.
Those are the things that 

41
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,360
really, really shift the Overton
window. 

42
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:30,200
Those are the things that really
break the over break the Bitcoin

43
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,320
echo chamber. 
And for anyone who doesn't know 

44
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:33,840
what the Bitcoin echo chamber 
is. 

45
00:02:34,110 --> 00:02:36,910
Is a lot of people don't 
understand is Bitcoin content 

46
00:02:36,910 --> 00:02:40,510
creators are making content for 
other bitcoiners, but that's not

47
00:02:40,510 --> 00:02:42,990
going to move the envelope. 
How do you get to that 

48
00:02:43,030 --> 00:02:46,230
intransigent minority of 
bitcoiners in the US? 

49
00:02:46,590 --> 00:02:49,710
How do you get to that point 
where you break the Bitcoin echo

50
00:02:49,710 --> 00:02:54,750
chamber? 
You get non bitcoiners to talk 

51
00:02:54,750 --> 00:02:58,590
about Bitcoin, to embrace the 
Bitcoin ethos, and to ask one 

52
00:02:58,590 --> 00:03:01,830
very simple question. 
Which is, why am I being forced 

53
00:03:01,830 --> 00:03:03,630
to use the money that steals 
from me? 

54
00:03:03,630 --> 00:03:07,790
Why am I used being forced 
through legal tender laws to use

55
00:03:07,790 --> 00:03:10,590
the money that loses purchasing 
power over time? 

56
00:03:11,390 --> 00:03:15,830
The more people ask that 
question, the harder it is it's 

57
00:03:15,830 --> 00:03:18,510
going to be for them. 
They don't have a good response 

58
00:03:18,510 --> 00:03:20,270
to that question. 
They ostrich it. 

59
00:03:20,270 --> 00:03:21,550
They just put their head in the 
ground. 

60
00:03:21,750 --> 00:03:23,550
They're like, look, it's a fact 
of life. 

61
00:03:23,550 --> 00:03:26,790
This is Mother Nature. 
Money has to have inflation. 

62
00:03:27,150 --> 00:03:31,420
But the thing about Bitcoin? 
That is a problem for them is 

63
00:03:31,620 --> 00:03:35,340
that Bitcoin does not go away. 
They can't make it go away. 

64
00:03:35,540 --> 00:03:37,540
So because they're they can't 
make it go away there. 

65
00:03:37,620 --> 00:03:41,380
They have to compete with it. 
And on A and and on a 

66
00:03:41,380 --> 00:03:45,340
competition level, when you, 
when you, when people have a 

67
00:03:45,340 --> 00:03:50,220
choice between a money that is 
deflationary, increases in 

68
00:03:50,220 --> 00:03:52,580
purchasing power over time, 
money that is censorship 

69
00:03:52,580 --> 00:03:56,460
resistant versus money that is 
censored at the whim of a 

70
00:03:56,460 --> 00:04:00,000
bureaucrat. 
And money that is inflationary, 

71
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,080
meaning it loses purchasing 
power over time. 

72
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:06,960
Over time, people are going to 
choose the better money. 

73
00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,880
And that's just a fact. 
So the only thing they really 

74
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:15,120
have left is narrative, 
propaganda, spin and 

75
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:18,200
misrepresentations. 
That's why you're seeing the 

76
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,839
high production value videos 
coming out of the I MF. 

77
00:04:22,330 --> 00:04:26,090
Explaining to you what inflation
is without with with 

78
00:04:26,090 --> 00:04:30,170
conveniently leaving the fact 
that inflation is literally 

79
00:04:30,170 --> 00:04:35,890
caused because governments print
money that they don't have and 

80
00:04:35,890 --> 00:04:37,610
of course they have to leave 
that part out. 

81
00:04:37,770 --> 00:04:41,570
Or when Christine Lagarde is 
blaming inflation on, on, or 

82
00:04:41,730 --> 00:04:43,890
better said, the European 
Central Bank is blaming 

83
00:04:43,890 --> 00:04:48,250
inflation on workers asking for 
more money for more 

84
00:04:48,250 --> 00:04:49,970
compensation. 
Right. 

85
00:04:50,170 --> 00:04:52,530
So. 
That is literally examples of 

86
00:04:52,530 --> 00:04:55,170
them gaslighting you. 
That is literally examples of 

87
00:04:55,170 --> 00:04:58,530
them trying to throw you off and
saying, hey, we're not 

88
00:04:58,530 --> 00:05:01,970
responsible for this, it's 
everything and anything but 

89
00:05:01,970 --> 00:05:04,890
ourselves. 
We did not cause this and that 

90
00:05:04,890 --> 00:05:09,650
is why people like Joe Rogan are
so important when they start 

91
00:05:09,690 --> 00:05:12,570
asking questions about Bitcoin. 
This is why people like Tim 

92
00:05:12,570 --> 00:05:16,050
Poole when he says his comments 
about Bitcoin are so important. 

93
00:05:16,390 --> 00:05:17,870
Because these are non 
bitcoiners. 

94
00:05:17,870 --> 00:05:22,310
These are, these are these are 
broadcasters and podcasters that

95
00:05:22,310 --> 00:05:27,670
have garnered massive audiences 
that are non bitcoiners. 

96
00:05:27,670 --> 00:05:31,910
And when you're exposing them to
the solution to a lot of the 

97
00:05:31,910 --> 00:05:37,270
political mishaps, a lot of the 
political discourse, a lot of 

98
00:05:37,270 --> 00:05:40,590
the a lot of the political 
division, because that's what 

99
00:05:40,590 --> 00:05:42,670
Bitcoin is. 
It's a solution to these 

100
00:05:42,670 --> 00:05:44,550
problems. 
It's a solution that is not a 

101
00:05:44,550 --> 00:05:49,180
voting solution. 
It's a big deal and I think Joe 

102
00:05:49,180 --> 00:05:52,340
Rogan is almost there and we 
have a clip for you guys to 

103
00:05:52,340 --> 00:05:54,940
prove just that. 
Anyways, I want to bring up my 

104
00:05:54,940 --> 00:05:57,100
legendary cohost. 
He's traveling at the moment. 

105
00:05:57,500 --> 00:06:00,060
He's he's still in Cali, Opti's 
in Cali. 

106
00:06:00,060 --> 00:06:01,860
How you doing Opti? 
Yeah, what's up guys? 

107
00:06:01,860 --> 00:06:05,780
I Nico rug pulled you guys. 
I'm not back at the home studio.

108
00:06:05,860 --> 00:06:08,860
I'm actually at my parents house
so I'm I'm in my dad's office 

109
00:06:08,860 --> 00:06:10,700
right now. 
But hey, the show goes on. 

110
00:06:10,900 --> 00:06:14,250
We will still get you guys all 
the signal but on that note 

111
00:06:14,250 --> 00:06:16,290
guys, I was telling everyone 
this. 

112
00:06:16,290 --> 00:06:18,090
I just told everyone in spaces 
as well. 

113
00:06:18,530 --> 00:06:20,770
We are live on on Twitter spaces
this week. 

114
00:06:21,330 --> 00:06:23,970
It's so it was so good to see 
all you guys because Nico and I 

115
00:06:23,970 --> 00:06:28,130
just ran into a computer and you
know we're just friends that ran

116
00:06:28,130 --> 00:06:30,170
to do the computer and we forget
that there's people out there 

117
00:06:30,170 --> 00:06:32,970
that enjoy what we're doing and 
the amount of just kind things 

118
00:06:32,970 --> 00:06:36,530
people were telling us all week.
It was it is just really kind 

119
00:06:36,530 --> 00:06:40,130
man and and it really kind of 
just makes us want to work 

120
00:06:40,130 --> 00:06:44,170
harder and and keep giving you 
guys a show that you enjoy and 

121
00:06:44,170 --> 00:06:47,650
give you guys content that you 
guys want to watch want to 

122
00:06:47,650 --> 00:06:50,050
continue to come on and hang out
with us. 

123
00:06:50,050 --> 00:06:52,930
And it's just man, like I I see 
people showing love in the chat 

124
00:06:52,930 --> 00:06:55,050
and it's just it was good to see
you guys. 

125
00:06:55,130 --> 00:06:58,490
We'll see you guys again. 
But yeah on that note not the 

126
00:06:58,490 --> 00:07:02,250
same studio there might be dogs 
barking my my my family dogs go 

127
00:07:02,250 --> 00:07:05,690
crazy sometimes so I'll do my 
best to minimize all the 

128
00:07:05,810 --> 00:07:09,170
auxiliary noise and all that 
stuff but hey show goes on. 

129
00:07:09,170 --> 00:07:12,140
I think we're going to have a 
good show today and I'm pretty 

130
00:07:12,140 --> 00:07:14,580
excited about today and just 
getting back to work and you go,

131
00:07:14,820 --> 00:07:17,340
especially when you're throwing 
me curveballs all weekend, bro. 

132
00:07:18,180 --> 00:07:20,980
It's so much more simple when 
you just come on the show, 

133
00:07:20,980 --> 00:07:22,700
simply Bitcoin and do what we 
normally do. 

134
00:07:22,700 --> 00:07:24,820
It's almost like we're 
professionals over here, bro. 

135
00:07:25,980 --> 00:07:27,540
Yeah, almost. 
Almost. 

136
00:07:27,540 --> 00:07:28,580
Maybe. 
Maybe so. 

137
00:07:28,620 --> 00:07:30,900
Anyways, no more delay. 
I wanna bring up our very 

138
00:07:30,900 --> 00:07:34,920
special guest. 
Vendetta E is the founder of the

139
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,960
Bitcoin way. 
And they essentially they're, 

140
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,360
they're your on ramp. 
They help you, you know, if you 

141
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,600
want to set up your cold 
storage, you know basically it's

142
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:46,880
customer service. 
If if you are, you know, if you 

143
00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:50,720
haven't been exposed to Bitcoin 
yet, the Bitcoin way guys will 

144
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,760
definitely, you know, hand hold 
you through the process. 

145
00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:57,720
So Vendetta, thank you so much 
for for for joining us today. 

146
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,000
Appreciate you bro. 
It's my pleasure, man. 

147
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:03,180
Thank you for having me. 
And if anyone who doesn't know, 

148
00:08:03,180 --> 00:08:08,140
his actual name isn't Vendetta, 
but he does have a rose next to 

149
00:08:08,140 --> 00:08:10,540
his handle and stuff. 
And I know that his favorite 

150
00:08:10,540 --> 00:08:13,860
movie is V for Vendetta, so it 
is in my nature to give 

151
00:08:13,860 --> 00:08:18,580
nicknames when I see fit. 
And yeah, man, why is V for 

152
00:08:18,580 --> 00:08:21,420
Vendetta your favorite movie? 
I feel like that's another 

153
00:08:21,420 --> 00:08:24,140
Bitcoin movie just as The 
Matrix. 

154
00:08:24,780 --> 00:08:26,580
V for Vendetta? 
Absolutely, man. 

155
00:08:26,580 --> 00:08:29,780
It it's a direct reflection of 
what's been going on for the 

156
00:08:29,780 --> 00:08:33,610
past three to five years. 
The totalitarian nightmare that 

157
00:08:33,610 --> 00:08:36,169
we've been living through has 
been put into the movie. 

158
00:08:36,169 --> 00:08:38,970
One of the best sellers and I've
watched this movie like 

159
00:08:38,970 --> 00:08:41,210
countless times, never gets 
boring. 

160
00:08:43,250 --> 00:08:46,570
You watch that movie and you 
sort of see your life in real 

161
00:08:46,570 --> 00:08:49,330
time how it plays out and 
hopefully it ends the same way. 

162
00:08:50,490 --> 00:08:54,850
100 percent, 100%. 
It is a very, very reminiscent 

163
00:08:54,850 --> 00:08:58,850
of the times and also, you know,
I think it's also a shot. 

164
00:08:58,850 --> 00:09:01,730
It's like a it's a 
foreshadowing, it's a warning, 

165
00:09:01,730 --> 00:09:04,250
you know of of how things can 
get. 

166
00:09:04,890 --> 00:09:07,210
People get scared. 
Governments use that. 

167
00:09:07,210 --> 00:09:10,770
People get people getting scared
to justify taking away the 

168
00:09:10,770 --> 00:09:13,730
freedoms of of everybody.

All right everybody, let's get 

176
00:09:35,530 --> 00:09:37,130
on to the numbers. 
We got a lot to talk about 

177
00:09:37,130 --> 00:09:38,130
today. 
Let's check it out. 

178
00:09:42,930 --> 00:09:46,650
The Bitcoin numbers. 
Is your Bitcoin and cold storage

179
00:09:46,650 --> 00:09:49,650
really secure? 
Is your seed phrase really 

180
00:09:49,650 --> 00:09:51,210
secure? 
Stamp seeds? 

181
00:09:51,210 --> 00:09:53,930
Do it yourself. 
Kit has everything you need to 

182
00:09:53,930 --> 00:09:58,290
hammer your seed words into 
commercial grade titanium plates

183
00:09:58,490 --> 00:10:00,490
instead of just writing them on 
paper. 

184
00:10:00,770 --> 00:10:04,010
Don't store your generational 
wealth on paper. 

185
00:10:04,380 --> 00:10:06,940
Papers prone to water damage. 
Fire damage. 

186
00:10:07,140 --> 00:10:09,340
You want to put your 
generational wealth on one of 

187
00:10:09,340 --> 00:10:12,460
the strongest metals on planet 
earth, Titanium. 

188
00:10:12,460 --> 00:10:15,620
Your words are actually stamped 
into this metal plate with this 

189
00:10:15,620 --> 00:10:19,060
hammer and these letter stamps. 
And once your words are in, they

190
00:10:19,060 --> 00:10:21,980
aren't going anywhere. 
No risk of the plate breaking 

191
00:10:21,980 --> 00:10:24,380
apart and pieces falling 
everywhere. 

192
00:10:24,580 --> 00:10:27,820
Titanium stamp seeds will 
survive nearly triple the heat 

193
00:10:27,820 --> 00:10:30,300
produced by a house fire. 
They're also crush proof, 

194
00:10:30,300 --> 00:10:32,940
waterproof, non corrosive, and 
time proof. 

195
00:10:32,980 --> 00:10:35,660
All things that paper is. 
Not allowing you to huddle your 

196
00:10:35,660 --> 00:10:38,660
Bitcoin with Peace of Mind for 
the long haul. 

197
00:10:38,780 --> 00:10:42,860
Stamp your seed on stamp seed.

203
00:11:01,710 --> 00:11:07,910
At the time of recording, the 
Bitcoin price is 27,450 sats per

204
00:11:07,910 --> 00:11:18,190
dollar, 3644 block height 
811,396 blocks to having 28,604

206
00:11:23,590 --> 00:11:29,630

209
00:11:41,270 --> 00:11:46,990
gold market cap 4.27% In the 
grand scheme of things, Bitcoin 

210
00:11:46,990 --> 00:11:49,350
is still a baby. 
My favorite statistic out of all

211
00:11:49,350 --> 00:11:53,670
this is a 1.74% because it 
continues to embarrass Fiat 

212
00:11:53,670 --> 00:11:56,400
currencies. 
And you know, as the havings 

213
00:11:56,400 --> 00:12:00,280
come and this just this number 
just keeps on going down, it's 

214
00:12:00,280 --> 00:12:02,440
just going to continue 
highlighting the fact that 

215
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,280
Bitcoin is just better money. 
More importantly, before I play 

216
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:09,720
you guys to Joe Rogan clip that 
money can exist and work just 

217
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,640
fine without inflation and that 
is good. 

218
00:12:12,680 --> 00:12:15,360
That is something that 
governments don't want you to 

219
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:20,280
know because as soon as that 
gets out of the bag. 

220
00:12:21,220 --> 00:12:23,900
Governments are going to have a 
really hard time explaining 

221
00:12:23,900 --> 00:12:25,980
that. 
Because remember, governments 

222
00:12:25,980 --> 00:12:31,100
use the money printer to pay for
things they cannot afford to pay

223
00:12:31,100 --> 00:12:35,220
for without the money printer, 
without creating money for free 

224
00:12:35,220 --> 00:12:39,380
that everyone else has to work 
for their only way of raising 

225
00:12:39,380 --> 00:12:42,950
funds. 
Is through direct taxation. 

226
00:12:43,150 --> 00:12:45,950
And if it's through direct 
taxation, all of a sudden the 

227
00:12:45,950 --> 00:12:49,830
incentives align with 
politicians because all all of a

228
00:12:49,830 --> 00:12:52,630
sudden they're they're 
incentivized not to get as close

229
00:12:52,630 --> 00:12:54,790
as humanly possible to the money
spigot. 

230
00:12:55,110 --> 00:12:59,510
They're incentivized to actually
do good by their constituents so

231
00:12:59,510 --> 00:13:02,830
that they can remain in power 
and also so that they can, you 

232
00:13:02,830 --> 00:13:06,790
know, potentially raise funds to
pay for whatever idea they, you 

233
00:13:06,790 --> 00:13:10,690
know, they see fit. 
So anyways, here is the clip 

234
00:13:10,730 --> 00:13:14,530
from Joe Rogan from The Joe 
Rogan Experience. 

235
00:13:14,770 --> 00:13:17,930
Here's the Bitcoin mindset 
saying Joe Rogan is almost there

236
00:13:18,210 --> 00:13:20,170
time for Sailor to be on the 
podcast. 

237
00:13:20,370 --> 00:13:24,370
Jimmy Song did an episode and he
was questioning like, hey like 

238
00:13:24,370 --> 00:13:27,130
why isn't Sailor? 
You know why hasn't Sailor been 

239
00:13:27,130 --> 00:13:29,130
invited? 
Why hasn't a prominent bitcoiner

240
00:13:29,130 --> 00:13:31,730
been invited, especially after 
everything that's been going on,

241
00:13:31,890 --> 00:13:35,130
whether that's Nine Boo Kelly 
and El Salvador Michael Sailor 

242
00:13:35,210 --> 00:13:38,210
choosing Bitcoin as an 
alternative to cash? 

243
00:13:38,650 --> 00:13:42,770
To holding Bitcoin on on his 
balance sheet you know and and 

244
00:13:42,770 --> 00:13:45,730
Bitcoin mindset ask a very basic
question very simple question 

245
00:13:45,730 --> 00:13:48,330
which is like you know like 
what's going on here like why 

246
00:13:48,330 --> 00:13:51,730
isn't you know like you know 
like you know why. 

247
00:13:51,810 --> 00:13:54,730
Why is Why is Sailor? 
Why hasn't Sailor been invited? 

248
00:13:54,730 --> 00:13:58,530
On the Joe Rogan Podcast? 
Jimmy Song did a great post and 

249
00:13:58,530 --> 00:14:01,250
he went into a lot of the the 
multitudes of reasons, right? 

250
00:14:01,490 --> 00:14:03,850
Whether that is, you know, the 
fact that he'll get peer 

251
00:14:03,850 --> 00:14:06,570
pressure not only to bring a 
bitcoiner on the podcast, but 

252
00:14:06,570 --> 00:14:10,210
also a shit coiner. 
To kind of placate both sides, 

253
00:14:10,530 --> 00:14:13,890
maybe the heat that comes from 
it, remember when Elon Musk 

254
00:14:14,730 --> 00:14:19,330
allowed Tesla to be to accept 
Bitcoin as payment? 

255
00:14:19,570 --> 00:14:21,730
He kind of reversed that 
decision real quick. 

256
00:14:21,730 --> 00:14:24,610
And he said we're not going to, 
we're not going to change course

257
00:14:24,930 --> 00:14:29,330
until it's proven that 50% of 
Bitcoin mining is, you know, 

258
00:14:29,330 --> 00:14:31,970
powered by renewable energies. 
Well, we're currently sitting, 

259
00:14:31,970 --> 00:14:33,770
according to the latest 
Cambridge report, we're 

260
00:14:33,770 --> 00:14:37,800
currently sitting at 56%. 
Of Bitcoin mining is currently 

261
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,840
powered by renewable energies. 
Looks like Elon hasn't changed 

262
00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:42,600
of course. 
So I think that there's a lot of

263
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,960
pressure on Elon a lot of 
pressure on Joe Rogan because 

264
00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:47,800
they're so influential because 
they're big. 

265
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:49,640
They're out of the Bitcoin echo 
chamber. 

266
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,320
I think that their whole, their,
with their words hold a lot of 

267
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,200
weight. 
And if you don't believe me, 

268
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:59,120
look at what happened with 
Russell Brand right as soon as 

269
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:03,640
he, you know, started touting. 
Things that were, you know, not 

270
00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,960
necessarily the friendliest 
towards governments in the UK. 

271
00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:10,720
The UK government, literally the
parliament of the UK, literally 

272
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,960
asked Rumble to demonetize 
Russell Brand. 

273
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:18,640
So these independent content 
creators that governments are 

274
00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,920
having a hard time coopting 
because they are independent. 

275
00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:27,400
Yeah man, as soon as they start 
asking that question, hey, why 

276
00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:29,640
are we being forced to use the 
money that steals from us? 

277
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,920
Once that is out, once most 
people are asking that question,

278
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,560
it's game over. 
It's game, set and match. 

279
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,200
Anyways. 
Let's play the clip by Joe 

280
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,160
Rogan. 
I mean the the real fascinating 

281
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:45,800
crypto is Bitcoin to me. 
I mean that's the one that I 

282
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:50,440
think has the most likely 
possibility of becoming. 

283
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:55,160
A universal viable currency, And
it's. 

284
00:15:55,780 --> 00:15:58,780
You know, it's limited in the 
amount that there can be. 

285
00:15:58,780 --> 00:16:01,940
It's, you know, you people mind 
it with their own. 

286
00:16:02,100 --> 00:16:05,740
It's like that to me is very 
fascinating and I love the fact 

287
00:16:05,740 --> 00:16:09,100
that it's been implemented and 
that at least something like 

288
00:16:09,100 --> 00:16:13,300
I've had Andreas Antonopoulos on
the podcast and he's when he 

289
00:16:13,300 --> 00:16:19,420
talks about it, he's living it. 
He's spending all of his. 

290
00:16:19,740 --> 00:16:21,780
Everything he has paid is in 
Bitcoin. 

291
00:16:21,780 --> 00:16:24,260
He pays his rent in Bitcoin. 
Everything he does is in 

292
00:16:24,260 --> 00:16:28,690
Bitcoin. 
So again, he's getting so close.

293
00:16:28,690 --> 00:16:32,490
He's so close. 
Tim Pool by the way, very, very 

294
00:16:32,490 --> 00:16:35,410
similar wording. 
They're so close. 

295
00:16:35,730 --> 00:16:38,850
And again, the reason that we 
focus on these like you know, 

296
00:16:38,850 --> 00:16:43,130
large non Bitcoin related 
figures is because they're large

297
00:16:43,130 --> 00:16:46,730
non Bitcoin related figures. 
They're outside of the Bitcoin 

298
00:16:46,730 --> 00:16:49,930
echo chamber. 
It's people like Joe Rogan that 

299
00:16:49,930 --> 00:16:52,970
have the ability to move the 
Overton window. 

300
00:16:53,890 --> 00:16:57,610
Outside the grasp of Captured 
media, I would say government 

301
00:16:57,610 --> 00:17:01,690
media, Parker Lewis, when we did
an simply Bitcoin IRL, you know,

302
00:17:01,690 --> 00:17:04,089
I said hey, like why is the 
corporate media doing this? 

303
00:17:04,089 --> 00:17:06,650
And he he stopped me and he said
no, Nico is not the corporate 

304
00:17:06,650 --> 00:17:11,250
media, this is government media.
So yeah, it's outside the grass.

305
00:17:11,250 --> 00:17:14,730
We had an article that was 
released by the BBC last week 

306
00:17:15,050 --> 00:17:16,770
that literally said that, you 
know. 

307
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,880
Inflation is not a tax, You 
know, so clearly, you know, they

308
00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:25,000
they they're used to controlling
the information flows. 

309
00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:27,960
And the Internet is just kind of
throwing a wrench in that. 

310
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:31,120
And now it's giving the ability 
for anyone to just spin up a 

311
00:17:31,120 --> 00:17:32,720
podcast. 
You know, create a Twitter 

312
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:37,280
account, communicate directly 
with their audience, right? 

313
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,000
Without the without the need of 
an intermediary. 

314
00:17:40,390 --> 00:17:43,030
Anyways, now this is my take to 
it. 

315
00:17:43,550 --> 00:17:46,430
I tweeted this out I think it 
was yesterday and it connected 

316
00:17:46,430 --> 00:17:48,790
with a lot of people and I think
it really connects with what Joe

317
00:17:48,790 --> 00:17:51,990
Rogan has to say. 
I said go on offense, force 

318
00:17:51,990 --> 00:17:54,070
them. 
To answer a simple question, why

319
00:17:54,070 --> 00:17:56,470
are we being forced to use the 
money that steals from us? 

320
00:17:56,670 --> 00:18:00,910
If enough of the populace is 
aware of this, we will win 100% 

321
00:18:00,910 --> 00:18:05,070
agree. 
Not only not only is if is if 

322
00:18:05,110 --> 00:18:06,750
enough of the populace is aware 
of this. 

323
00:18:07,090 --> 00:18:10,450
It's also if enough of the 
populace is aware of it, and 

324
00:18:10,450 --> 00:18:13,250
also buying Bitcoin and also 
taking that Bitcoin into self 

325
00:18:13,250 --> 00:18:15,250
custody. 
That is how things change. 

326
00:18:15,250 --> 00:18:19,330
This is not a voting thing. 
Voting is like you're voting 

327
00:18:19,610 --> 00:18:21,810
either political party, you vote
into power. 

328
00:18:22,450 --> 00:18:24,930
The issue remains the same. 
There's a bureaucratic elite 

329
00:18:24,930 --> 00:18:27,570
that gets create money for free 
that everyone else has to work 

330
00:18:27,570 --> 00:18:32,090
for, and that completely 
misaligns the incentives of the 

331
00:18:32,090 --> 00:18:35,050
ruling class and the rest the 
you know, the rest of us. 

332
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,800
Right. 
So you really do have to fix the

333
00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:39,960
money. 
If you fix the root problem, if 

334
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,200
you fix the base layer of 
society, I suspect a lot of 

335
00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:47,080
these issues, whether there's 
social issues, cultural issues, 

336
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,240
I think they will literally just
go away. 

337
00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:52,360
Anyways, Opti, what's your take 
on this? 

338
00:18:52,360 --> 00:18:53,680
And then we'll move on to 
Vendetta. 

339
00:18:55,120 --> 00:18:58,080
Yeah. 
So first and foremost, of 

340
00:18:58,080 --> 00:18:59,680
course, it's Bitcoin. 
Not crypto. 

341
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,120
We we we say that all the time. 
Like there's Bitcoin in the shit

342
00:19:02,120 --> 00:19:05,250
coins. 
And I I I'm just, I'm loving the

343
00:19:05,250 --> 00:19:07,770
fact that Joe Rogan's having 
this conversation with Sam 

344
00:19:07,770 --> 00:19:11,970
Altman the world coin scam guy 
and chat GB T guy and he's just 

345
00:19:11,970 --> 00:19:14,890
like, yeah, Nah, like there's 
Bitcoin and then the shit coin. 

346
00:19:15,210 --> 00:19:17,650
And of course I'm sure people 
out there and I didn't really 

347
00:19:17,650 --> 00:19:19,770
see people's response to this 
since we were busy over the 

348
00:19:19,770 --> 00:19:21,810
weekend. 
But I'm sure people out there 

349
00:19:21,890 --> 00:19:23,130
kind of still saying the same 
thing. 

350
00:19:23,130 --> 00:19:25,650
They always say it's like oh why
isn't Joe Rogan talking about 

351
00:19:25,650 --> 00:19:28,570
Bitcoin more And it's like guys,
that's not really his job. 

352
00:19:28,570 --> 00:19:30,410
Like that's our job to talk 
about Bitcoin. 

353
00:19:30,610 --> 00:19:32,370
But he's saying what we say all 
the time. 

354
00:19:32,370 --> 00:19:36,090
You know, like there's only one 
viable quote UN quote crypto and

355
00:19:36,090 --> 00:19:38,330
that is Bitcoin and it's because
it's hard cap. 

356
00:19:38,570 --> 00:19:43,170
It is censorship resistant and 
I'm really glad that he did 

357
00:19:43,510 --> 00:19:46,590
mention Andreas on Tonopolis 
because like Nico and I both 

358
00:19:46,590 --> 00:19:48,670
have a, you know, a soft spot 
for Andreas. 

359
00:19:48,670 --> 00:19:51,270
He's the reason why we became 
bitcoiners in the 1st place. 

360
00:19:51,470 --> 00:19:54,990
I'm pretty sure we both saw 
Andreas videos and like that's 

361
00:19:54,990 --> 00:19:57,150
like when we first got into 
Bitcoin and then we're like, Oh 

362
00:19:57,150 --> 00:20:01,030
my God, this is incredible. 
And what Andreas was on Joe 

363
00:20:01,030 --> 00:20:03,750
Rogan like, I don't know, five 
years ago, six years ago or 

364
00:20:03,750 --> 00:20:05,390
something and hasn't been on 
since. 

365
00:20:05,750 --> 00:20:10,550
And I think going forward in 
this bull run, we will see a lot

366
00:20:10,550 --> 00:20:12,110
more Bitcoiners coming on the 
show. 

367
00:20:12,660 --> 00:20:16,020
And I think it's just going to 
be like part of the zeitgeist 

368
00:20:16,020 --> 00:20:17,420
that Joe Rogan will bring them 
on. 

369
00:20:17,420 --> 00:20:20,660
I'm I'm pretty sure Joe Rogan is
still confirmed to be holding 

370
00:20:20,660 --> 00:20:24,100
some coin. 
He is definitely, in my opinion,

371
00:20:24,100 --> 00:20:26,700
already a Bitcoiner. 
There's a lot of overlapping 

372
00:20:27,340 --> 00:20:29,940
ideologies and hobbies that he 
likes with bitcoiners. 

373
00:20:30,140 --> 00:20:32,780
But again, I just don't think 
it's his job to necessarily just

374
00:20:32,780 --> 00:20:36,660
only show Bitcoin like he's he's
it's just like a world podcast. 

375
00:20:36,660 --> 00:20:38,820
He talks about all interesting 
stuffs around the world and 

376
00:20:38,820 --> 00:20:43,380
that's why we do our show. 
But he is going to be doing a 

377
00:20:43,380 --> 00:20:46,180
disservice to his audience if he
doesn't bring bitcoiners on. 

378
00:20:46,180 --> 00:20:50,300
Because when it gets frothy 
again in the bull run, there's 

379
00:20:50,300 --> 00:20:52,860
going to be so many people that 
get just like, you know, 

380
00:20:53,060 --> 00:20:55,300
bamboozled going into the shit 
coin runs. 

381
00:20:55,300 --> 00:20:57,420
I'm sure we're going to see 
another shit coin season coming 

382
00:20:57,420 --> 00:21:01,850
up, and so I'd much prefer to 
see bitcoiners go on the show 

383
00:21:01,850 --> 00:21:04,930
and give that pure signal, 
whether it's sailor or Safe Dean

384
00:21:05,330 --> 00:21:09,530
or, you know, like I'd love to 
see Eric Cason and Joe Rogan. 

385
00:21:09,530 --> 00:21:13,340
Like you know just just or 
breathe love even like having 

386
00:21:13,340 --> 00:21:18,260
these bitcoins go on the show I 
think would do a mega service to

387
00:21:18,260 --> 00:21:20,780
his audience. 
But I mean Joe Rogan said what 

388
00:21:20,780 --> 00:21:23,020
they're gonna say anyways like 
he already said it you know 

389
00:21:23,020 --> 00:21:25,060
Bitcoin can't be stopped. 
It is hard cap. 

390
00:21:25,220 --> 00:21:29,260
It's the only viable crypto in 
the space and so in my opinion 

391
00:21:29,260 --> 00:21:31,700
he gets it. 
It's just like it's not really 

392
00:21:31,700 --> 00:21:35,300
his job to just go around and 
and just be like, you know, I 

393
00:21:35,300 --> 00:21:38,780
know we all want the like Joe 
Rogan DMT moment where he's just

394
00:21:38,780 --> 00:21:42,580
sitting there like mind blown, 
like Oh my God, really like this

395
00:21:42,580 --> 00:21:44,940
is incredible. 
I think we will get that moving 

396
00:21:44,940 --> 00:21:48,700
forward. 
And I I just think it's about 

397
00:21:48,700 --> 00:21:53,620
bitcoiners. 
Not necessarily working on our 

398
00:21:53,620 --> 00:21:58,320
narrative per se, but just maybe
being a little patient and then 

399
00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:01,640
kind of understanding where Joe 
Rogan is and what his audience 

400
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,920
wants and then angling the 
Bitcoin message in there. 

401
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,680
And we talk about this all the 
time like This is why we do our 

402
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:09,160
show. 
This is why we are simply 

403
00:22:09,160 --> 00:22:13,150
Bitcoin is so that we can 
constantly cover Daily News on 

404
00:22:13,150 --> 00:22:16,590
Bitcoin. 
And you know not saying that we 

405
00:22:16,590 --> 00:22:20,310
will be Joe Rogan in the future,
but like This is why we designed

406
00:22:20,350 --> 00:22:24,270
our show a certain way so that 
we can potentially start to give

407
00:22:24,270 --> 00:22:26,750
good media for for the average 
person out there. 

408
00:22:26,750 --> 00:22:29,030
And so I think it's only a 
matter of time until we get 

409
00:22:29,030 --> 00:22:31,310
really good bitcoiners on the 
show again. 

410
00:22:31,310 --> 00:22:33,470
Where are the depths of a bear 
market right now guys? 

411
00:22:33,470 --> 00:22:37,030
So like no one but us cares 
about Bitcoin at this point and 

412
00:22:37,030 --> 00:22:40,270
so it's just a blessing and and 
I guess low key occurs so like 

413
00:22:40,270 --> 00:22:43,590
we build stuff out Joe you can 
say in the quiet part out loud. 

414
00:22:43,590 --> 00:22:46,750
I keep saying that I think 
Bitcoin has crossed the Rubicon 

415
00:22:46,750 --> 00:22:50,430
into mainstream consciousness. 
I'm I'm like I know it's not 

416
00:22:50,430 --> 00:22:54,990
actual facts but I'm I'm almost 
convinced that pretty much 

417
00:22:54,990 --> 00:22:56,790
everyone in the world has heard 
about Bitcoin. 

418
00:22:56,790 --> 00:22:59,550
They've got their first couple 
touches and it's only a matter 

419
00:22:59,550 --> 00:23:02,910
of time until they get the next 
touches and they start getting 

420
00:23:02,910 --> 00:23:05,350
involved in Bitcoin. 
Especially when number starts to

421
00:23:05,350 --> 00:23:08,450
go up again, everyone's gonna 
catch the FOMO and it's just 

422
00:23:08,450 --> 00:23:10,850
gonna get crazy. 
So shouts at the Joe Rogan, I'm 

423
00:23:10,850 --> 00:23:14,090
pretty sure that he's seeing 
what we're seeing, especially 

424
00:23:14,090 --> 00:23:17,810
he's been covering Cbdc's 
digital ID systems like he's 

425
00:23:17,810 --> 00:23:22,330
knows what's going on as well. 
And he, you know, has been a 

426
00:23:22,330 --> 00:23:24,770
quote, UN quote conspiracy 
theorist for a long time. 

427
00:23:24,770 --> 00:23:28,900
So I am almost positive he is 
looking for solutions. 

428
00:23:28,940 --> 00:23:32,620
It's just a matter of time until
he's fully on board and just 

429
00:23:32,620 --> 00:23:34,820
like shilling Bitcoin wallets 
and stuff. 

430
00:23:34,820 --> 00:23:36,900
So I think there's help moving 
forward. 

431
00:23:36,900 --> 00:23:41,460
But again, I I just don't think 
it is Joe Rogan's job to be just

432
00:23:41,460 --> 00:23:43,260
a constant Bitcoin show like we 
are. 

433
00:23:43,580 --> 00:23:44,980
It. 
It's just the the way of the 

434
00:23:44,980 --> 00:23:46,820
beast. 
And so I think slowly but surely

435
00:23:46,820 --> 00:23:50,300
he will have more of these 
conversations because again, we 

436
00:23:50,300 --> 00:23:52,980
say it all the time and and I 
really do believe this, like 

437
00:23:53,700 --> 00:23:56,420
most people know what the 
problem is or most people like 

438
00:23:56,420 --> 00:23:59,500
in Joe Rogan's position 
understand what the problem is. 

439
00:23:59,540 --> 00:24:02,260
It's just they don't fully know 
that the solution is to fix the 

440
00:24:02,260 --> 00:24:04,900
money. 
And so as we fix the money, as 

441
00:24:04,900 --> 00:24:08,220
we separate money from state, as
we take away the money printer 

442
00:24:08,220 --> 00:24:11,180
from these war mongers out there
like the world will slowly but 

443
00:24:11,180 --> 00:24:13,860
surely start to fix itself. 
And Joe Rogan will have that 

444
00:24:13,860 --> 00:24:17,060
mind blown moment and we can 
meme it and I'm sure we will 

445
00:24:17,060 --> 00:24:19,740
parade around it. 
But again, Bitcoin is bigger 

446
00:24:19,740 --> 00:24:22,340
than any one person. 
But I do like to see these 

447
00:24:22,340 --> 00:24:25,660
efforts of content creators, of 
popular content creators 

448
00:24:25,660 --> 00:24:28,180
breaking the echo chamber. 
Because that's all we're doing 

449
00:24:28,180 --> 00:24:31,740
here guys, is trying to get 
Bitcoin outside of the small 

450
00:24:31,740 --> 00:24:34,820
community that we are on Twitter
or even off of Twitter. 

451
00:24:34,820 --> 00:24:38,940
Like Bitcoin global adoption 
numbers are just minuscule and 

452
00:24:38,940 --> 00:24:41,300
and I'm just convinced Bitcoin 
is the best money and it just 

453
00:24:41,300 --> 00:24:43,620
blows my mind that more people 
aren't bitcoiners. 

454
00:24:43,620 --> 00:24:46,140
So shouts out to people like Joe
Rogan that are having these 

455
00:24:46,140 --> 00:24:48,460
conversations and it's only 
going to get stronger as we move

456
00:24:48,460 --> 00:24:50,980
forward. 
So just just awesome to see. 

457
00:24:50,980 --> 00:24:53,100
100% What's your take? 
Vendetta. 

458
00:24:55,900 --> 00:24:58,140
Oh, sorry, I had you made it 
jump again. 

459
00:24:59,350 --> 00:25:00,910
Absolutely agree with everything
you say. 

460
00:25:00,910 --> 00:25:05,190
Bitcoin is the future 100%. 
I'm totally convinced of this. 

461
00:25:05,190 --> 00:25:08,470
And the more I see things get 
progressively worse around the 

462
00:25:08,470 --> 00:25:13,110
globe, the more it solidifies 
the the belief that sooner or 

463
00:25:13,110 --> 00:25:15,830
later, even the most resistant 
human being is going to 

464
00:25:15,870 --> 00:25:19,830
understand that they cannot 
continue living in a world where

465
00:25:19,830 --> 00:25:23,630
their money is controlled by 
someone else who has this 

466
00:25:23,630 --> 00:25:27,430
delusion, this grandeur of 
wanting to play God to control 

467
00:25:27,430 --> 00:25:30,370
what you do with it. 
That's not what money should be,

468
00:25:30,370 --> 00:25:32,490
and no one should be subjected 
to any of it. 

469
00:25:33,210 --> 00:25:36,890
You work for your money, You do.
You decide what you do with it. 

470
00:25:36,930 --> 00:25:39,770
It's not up to anyone else to 
tell you what's right and what's

471
00:25:39,770 --> 00:25:41,890
wrong. 
That must stop. 

472
00:25:42,410 --> 00:25:45,130
And Bitcoin was created 
specifically to put an end to 

473
00:25:45,130 --> 00:25:49,010
this nonsense. 
You know, preservation of 

474
00:25:49,010 --> 00:25:53,920
wealth. 100% Wait, wait, Nico, 
how's this comment right here? 

475
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,240
Skip on down the road. 
Jamie, bring up that video of 

476
00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,880
the bear fighting the Bitcoin. 
I can't wait till we have Joe 

477
00:25:59,880 --> 00:26:01,960
Rogan bringing up memes on his 
show with Jamie. 

478
00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:03,600
Ready. 
Bring up that Bitcoin. 

479
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:06,880
Oh man, dude, that, that that is
going to be hilarious. 

480
00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:10,400
We got to manifest that. 
Just manifest that into reality.

481
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:14,200
What Bitcoin meme are is going 
to be featured on the Joe Rogan 

482
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:19,500
experience first, first? 
Oh man, that's gonna be that's 

483
00:26:19,500 --> 00:26:21,140
gonna be great. 
It's gonna be glorious. 

484
00:26:21,780 --> 00:26:25,700
But yeah, no listen guys, in all
seriousness, people like Joe 

485
00:26:25,700 --> 00:26:28,740
Rogan, people like Lex Friedman.
I know a lot of people dislike 

486
00:26:28,740 --> 00:26:32,220
Lex Friedman, cuz he brought 
metallic on people like. 

487
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,040
People like Tim Poole, right? 
They're so important. 

488
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:40,800
Russell Brand, they're so 
important in this movement 

489
00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:44,400
because they're out of the 
corporate media or how Parker 

490
00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,600
Lewis said. 
The government media sphere of 

491
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:50,040
influence. 
So they're not bought and paid 

492
00:26:50,040 --> 00:26:53,400
for so to speak. 
And when they talk about a lot 

493
00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,360
of, when they talk about 
Bitcoin, it holds a lot more 

494
00:26:56,360 --> 00:26:58,640
weight than when we talk about 
Bitcoin. 

495
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:00,240
We are. 
If you think about it, they're 

496
00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,080
at the tippity top of that 
funnel. 

497
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,160
We're like. 
We're pretty close to the top of

498
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,080
the funnel because we're not a 
technical podcast, we're an 

499
00:27:06,120 --> 00:27:10,120
entertainment focus podcast, but
or show better said. 

500
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,760
But yeah, that those guys are 
like, you know, I bet you Tim 

501
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,880
Poole minted a crap ton of 
bitcoiners the moment he said. 

502
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,880
You see all this stuff that's 
going on with banks F that I'm 

503
00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,520
going to Bitcoin, right? 
So we need more of that. 

504
00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:27,080
That's how we win the race to 
avoid the war. 

505
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:31,040
That's how we win this. 
You know, that's how we awaken 

506
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:34,520
people to the reality and the 
dangers of central bank digital 

507
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,120
currencies because people are 
not aware of that. 

508
00:27:37,120 --> 00:27:40,360
They're they're asleep, right. 
It's not that they don't like 

509
00:27:40,360 --> 00:27:42,000
it. 
It's not that that most people 

510
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:44,960
are, are you know, are just 
inherently like. 

511
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,380
Yeah, like. 
So, you know, totalitarianism, 

512
00:27:47,380 --> 00:27:50,100
this is great. 
They're just low information. 

513
00:27:50,100 --> 00:27:53,260
Like they are not informed. 
And the information that they do

514
00:27:53,260 --> 00:27:57,140
get, they get it from captured 
corporate media, right. 

515
00:27:57,860 --> 00:28:00,660
So it really falls down to you, 
the individual, you know, of 

516
00:28:00,660 --> 00:28:03,780
course we're doing our bit, but 
it falls down to you to really 

517
00:28:03,780 --> 00:28:08,140
spread the orange gospel and 
really tell them, hey guys, it's

518
00:28:08,140 --> 00:28:12,300
not left first right, it's. 
It's not left first right, it's.

519
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,040
It's you know, it's not left 
first, right? 

520
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,400
It's orange verse green. 
All right, everybody, let's get 

521
00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:28,750
to the culture. 
Let's do this the daily culture.

528
00:28:53,930 --> 00:28:56,970
All right guys, we're going to 
jump right into the culture. 

529
00:28:57,290 --> 00:29:02,190
We got Vendetta, Twitter is V 
for BTC. 

530
00:29:02,870 --> 00:29:05,910
Go follow him. 
He works with Bitcoin way they 

531
00:29:05,910 --> 00:29:08,270
sponsored the Clips channel. 
If you guys are watching the 

532
00:29:08,270 --> 00:29:10,910
clips with Dow and Ruston, then 
you guys have heard them 

533
00:29:10,910 --> 00:29:15,470
already. 
And Vendetta, I asked Dow and 

534
00:29:15,470 --> 00:29:18,430
Ruston if they had some 
questions for you guys. 

535
00:29:18,790 --> 00:29:21,830
And I think first and foremost, 
let's just start with what is 

536
00:29:21,830 --> 00:29:25,030
the Bitcoin way and what is your
goal and then we'll get into 

537
00:29:25,030 --> 00:29:27,870
some of their questions that the
they thought would be very 

538
00:29:27,870 --> 00:29:29,910
fitting for you to answer. 
Sure thing, man. 

539
00:29:29,910 --> 00:29:33,110
Well, the Bitcoin, what you 
think of us is like the IT team 

540
00:29:33,110 --> 00:29:36,590
in the Bitcoin space. 
I mean, we come from over 25 

541
00:29:36,590 --> 00:29:39,750
years of cybersecurity, 
encryption and privacy and bring

542
00:29:39,750 --> 00:29:42,270
a lot of that knowledge, you 
know, into the Bitcoin space of 

543
00:29:42,270 --> 00:29:44,470
which I've been in for a little 
over five years. 

544
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,960
So our mission, our objective is
to fast track the onboarding of 

545
00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:53,360
anyone into Bitcoin self custody
properly and securely and we 

546
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:55,040
hand hold them through the 
entire process. 

547
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:59,680
So whether it's cold wallets, 
nodes, how to buy, no KYC, 

548
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:03,560
Bitcoin inheritance planning, 
integrating Bitcoin payments 

549
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:08,400
into your business, you name it,
we cover it all and we make it a

550
00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:12,360
BC easy for anyone to to learn 
during the process. 

551
00:30:12,860 --> 00:30:15,060
But we we take care of the 
technical stuff for them. 

552
00:30:15,100 --> 00:30:18,220
So those that are, you know, 
that are nervous approaching 

553
00:30:18,220 --> 00:30:21,620
this because of the tech. 
Well, we do our best to remove 

554
00:30:21,620 --> 00:30:24,300
that anxiety that usually 
becomes associated with it. 

555
00:30:26,900 --> 00:30:27,540
Love it. 
Yeah. 

556
00:30:27,540 --> 00:30:30,900
I think when we first talked, I 
had this epiphany and I might 

557
00:30:30,900 --> 00:30:32,020
have brought it on the show 1 
day. 

558
00:30:32,500 --> 00:30:35,580
I went to the Apple store with 
one of my friends and I was 

559
00:30:35,580 --> 00:30:38,220
looking at the Apple care team 
like the I, I T team and I'm 

560
00:30:38,220 --> 00:30:41,690
like wow, like Bitcoin really 
does need some kind of like 

561
00:30:41,690 --> 00:30:44,570
Apple Care IT team. 
And I was like, oh wait like we 

562
00:30:44,570 --> 00:30:48,570
are that Apple Care like we are 
the IT team and OK, all right. 

563
00:30:48,570 --> 00:30:51,370
Anyways, that that's just me 
blowing my own mind. 

564
00:30:51,530 --> 00:30:57,010
Anyways, Dow asked me to ask you
if someone called you vendetta 

565
00:30:57,570 --> 00:31:00,530
and they were like, look, I 
don't know anything about 

566
00:31:00,530 --> 00:31:03,490
Bitcoin, Can you help me? 
Where would you start? 

567
00:31:03,610 --> 00:31:07,260
What would you tell them? 
Well, the 1st 30 minutes are 

568
00:31:07,260 --> 00:31:09,340
free in any call when when 
anybody calls us. 

569
00:31:09,340 --> 00:31:11,860
So we usually start just by 
getting to know one another, you

570
00:31:11,860 --> 00:31:14,340
know, to understand you know 
what it is that every individual

571
00:31:14,340 --> 00:31:17,660
knows where they stand, you 
know, on the Bitcoin journey and

572
00:31:17,860 --> 00:31:20,100
we just have a casual 
conversation, you know, to see 

573
00:31:20,100 --> 00:31:23,140
what how much FUD are they 
coming with or whether they 

574
00:31:23,180 --> 00:31:26,220
actually know anything to to 
begin with. 

575
00:31:26,220 --> 00:31:29,010
Then we. 
We explain to them the process 

576
00:31:29,010 --> 00:31:32,290
of why Bitcoin is important so 
that they get into it, you know,

577
00:31:32,330 --> 00:31:34,850
for the right reasons. 
We absolutely do not want 

578
00:31:34,850 --> 00:31:38,050
someone to go into Bitcoin, you 
know, with the purpose of 

579
00:31:38,050 --> 00:31:39,730
selling it. 
When the price goes up to sell 

580
00:31:39,730 --> 00:31:42,690
it back out into toilet paper, 
you know, that's not what this 

581
00:31:42,690 --> 00:31:44,530
is about. 
So we ensure that they have 

582
00:31:44,530 --> 00:31:48,250
fundamental understanding of 
where the value of Bitcoin is 

583
00:31:48,250 --> 00:31:50,770
and what it really represents, 
and then we guide them through 

584
00:31:50,770 --> 00:31:54,560
the steps necessary. 
I mean, we do things by phases 

585
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:58,320
just to break down the process 
because we don't want to hit 

586
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:00,960
individuals with a tsunami of 
information at once. 

587
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:04,400
So we usually start with the 
explanation around the cold 

588
00:32:04,400 --> 00:32:07,960
wallet, which is absolutely 
necessary step one for any 

589
00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,400
Bitcoin. 
And once that's done and set up 

590
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:14,840
properly, the default for us is 
an air gap set up so the device 

591
00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,760
itself never goes online. 
Once that's handled, you know, 

592
00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,760
we move on to the Bitcoin node. 
And that's a big one because 

593
00:32:20,760 --> 00:32:23,440
most Bitcoin most bitcoiners 
don't even realize that they 

594
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:26,120
need one. 
And we push that very strongly 

595
00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:30,000
because you are neither 100% 
private or sovereign if you 

596
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:31,960
don't have a node. 
It's almost like having a house 

597
00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:36,120
with no roof. 
The node is a must because 

598
00:32:36,960 --> 00:32:39,400
obviously it adds to the 
decentralization and strength of

599
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,160
the overall, you know, Bitcoin 
network, but more specifically. 

600
00:32:42,780 --> 00:32:45,540
It makes every individual 
private, whereas you're not 

601
00:32:45,540 --> 00:32:48,820
leaving fingerprints of your 
Bitcoin activities all over the 

602
00:32:48,820 --> 00:32:51,620
place. 
You may not be thinking about 

603
00:32:51,620 --> 00:32:54,620
this as a big deal now you know,
as bitcoins 27,000. 

604
00:32:54,620 --> 00:32:57,140
But I can assure you, once 
Bitcoin goes parabolic and 

605
00:32:57,180 --> 00:32:59,220
becomes worth millions of 
dollars, you're going to wish 

606
00:32:59,220 --> 00:33:02,860
you had a node and had not left,
you know, your trail of 

607
00:33:03,380 --> 00:33:06,380
activities all over the place. 
So privacy is a very big deal 

608
00:33:06,740 --> 00:33:09,980
and we make sure you know that 
people understand this. 

609
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,520
And once that's done, like we 
move on to explain what are the 

610
00:33:13,520 --> 00:33:16,960
benefits between for learning 
how to buy no KYC Bitcoin. 

611
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:19,400
We help people through the 
process, we set them up with the

612
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:23,360
proper wallets in case they have
own Bitcoin already, which is 

613
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:26,720
most of the time is KYC. 
So we create no separate wallets

614
00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:28,040
for that, Keep the funds 
separate. 

615
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,280
Explain to them why they should 
never mix them. 

616
00:33:31,100 --> 00:33:34,780
Get them involved in coin joins.
You know if if privacy is a big 

617
00:33:34,780 --> 00:33:39,060
concern for them, we really go 
deep but bit by bit that's 

618
00:33:39,140 --> 00:33:42,380
that's the key for us. 
You know we we don't bombard 

619
00:33:42,380 --> 00:33:45,660
them all at once. 
It's it's really a hand holding 

620
00:33:45,660 --> 00:33:49,700
process, individualized and 
personalized and customized for 

621
00:33:49,700 --> 00:33:53,300
everyone so that everyone's 
always at ease throughout the 

622
00:33:53,300 --> 00:33:56,100
entire journey. 
Love it, OK? 

623
00:33:56,140 --> 00:33:58,700
On that note, you you have been 
kind of talking about privacy 

624
00:33:58,700 --> 00:34:02,390
and stuff, I think maybe out 
there. 

625
00:34:02,390 --> 00:34:04,350
There's usually a few cynics in 
the chat. 

626
00:34:04,510 --> 00:34:08,510
What would you respond to them 
saying that there is some kind 

627
00:34:08,510 --> 00:34:10,949
of moral hazard while you're 
guiding people setting up their 

628
00:34:10,949 --> 00:34:13,830
wallets and all that stuff? 
Like what is your incentive not 

629
00:34:13,870 --> 00:34:17,270
to necessarily rug pull some of 
your individuals out there? 

630
00:34:18,550 --> 00:34:21,710
We can't rug pull anyone. 
It's technically impossible 

631
00:34:21,710 --> 00:34:25,949
because we control nothing. 
In fact, we just announced a new

632
00:34:25,949 --> 00:34:28,350
service today. 
I'll he'll be the first to hear 

633
00:34:28,350 --> 00:34:31,750
about it is that we're now 
offering collaborative custody. 

634
00:34:31,870 --> 00:34:35,790
We in order to maintain the 
standard of Bitcoin custody and 

635
00:34:35,790 --> 00:34:38,949
we've strategically, you know 
partnered up with Nunchuck which

636
00:34:38,949 --> 00:34:42,110
is you know very popular Bitcoin
wallet on that front. 

637
00:34:42,469 --> 00:34:46,350
And now, due to heavy demand on 
this, we are doing collaborative

638
00:34:46,350 --> 00:34:49,710
custody, but in a way that keeps
the individual 100% in the 

639
00:34:49,710 --> 00:34:52,110
driver's seat. 
We cannot do anything as a 

640
00:34:52,110 --> 00:34:53,830
company. 
All we are is think of us as 

641
00:34:53,830 --> 00:34:57,270
sort of like a backup to one of 
your keys in case whatever 

642
00:34:57,270 --> 00:34:59,870
happens to it, you lose it, you 
know, and so forth. 

643
00:35:00,270 --> 00:35:04,310
So that's we've been getting a 
lot of, you know, people asking 

644
00:35:04,310 --> 00:35:06,750
for these things. 
I'm a very big proponent of self

645
00:35:06,750 --> 00:35:09,710
custody. 
I don't believe anyone's too 

646
00:35:09,710 --> 00:35:12,030
stupid to learn it. 
It's just a lot of it makes a 

647
00:35:12,030 --> 00:35:15,310
lot of people nervous because of
the tech and you know, we we 

648
00:35:15,310 --> 00:35:19,990
guide them through the process 
to make the tech easy to grasp. 

649
00:35:20,630 --> 00:35:23,190
That being said, there's still a
heavy demand for those, you 

650
00:35:23,190 --> 00:35:26,310
know, that sort of want the 
Peace of Mind knowing that just 

651
00:35:26,310 --> 00:35:28,630
in case, you know, they make a 
mistake along the way that 

652
00:35:28,630 --> 00:35:32,110
someone can help. 
And for that reason, you know, 

653
00:35:32,110 --> 00:35:34,870
we we we put out the 
collaborative custody package 

654
00:35:34,870 --> 00:35:38,830
now where we can definitely hold
a backup key for anyone. 

655
00:35:39,910 --> 00:35:43,350
It's a multi sig setup, so that 
automatically upgrades your 

656
00:35:43,350 --> 00:35:47,950
single sig configuration to 
something technically much more 

657
00:35:47,950 --> 00:35:52,260
secure. 
But without reducing your level 

658
00:35:52,260 --> 00:35:55,900
of control over your keys, the 
Bitcoin weight cannot send or 

659
00:35:55,900 --> 00:35:59,740
withdraw anything from anyone. 
The individual always maintains 

660
00:35:59,820 --> 00:36:03,180
both keys, so without them 
nothing happens. 

661
00:36:03,660 --> 00:36:06,940
And that's something that, you 
know, we emphasize very heavily 

662
00:36:07,020 --> 00:36:10,980
so that everyone knows that when
you're in self custody, you're 

663
00:36:10,980 --> 00:36:14,420
the boss, but at the same time, 
the onus of responsibility is on

664
00:36:14,420 --> 00:36:17,310
you. 
This is why education and 

665
00:36:17,310 --> 00:36:19,590
understanding this process is 
critical. 

666
00:36:20,590 --> 00:36:24,110
You know, guarding your yourself
custody set up is something you 

667
00:36:24,110 --> 00:36:26,670
should, you know you should be 
guarding it with your life 

668
00:36:26,670 --> 00:36:30,070
because at some point it's going
to become so valuable. 

669
00:36:30,550 --> 00:36:33,870
And if you want to pass it on to
some loved ones, well you know 

670
00:36:33,870 --> 00:36:36,630
you need to have a fundamental 
understanding of this and so do 

671
00:36:36,630 --> 00:36:39,350
they. 
And so we were very active in 

672
00:36:39,350 --> 00:36:42,510
that process as well to ensure 
that everyone coming to us from 

673
00:36:43,190 --> 00:36:46,100
anywhere. 
At any at any stage, whether 

674
00:36:46,100 --> 00:36:48,300
you're a technical person or 
not, it doesn't matter. 

675
00:36:48,700 --> 00:36:50,900
We will guide you. 
We will fine tune your setup. 

676
00:36:52,060 --> 00:36:56,940
Cybersecurity best tips and 
practices are like a de facto 

677
00:36:57,740 --> 00:37:01,020
thing that we that we, you know,
integrate for everyone. 

678
00:37:01,420 --> 00:37:04,020
I mean, essentially we help you 
become a ghost. 

679
00:37:04,260 --> 00:37:07,820
So ghost, you know, we have no 
point of attack. 

680
00:37:07,820 --> 00:37:11,060
Well, then you're safer than you
were when you started. 

681
00:37:11,690 --> 00:37:13,610
And like all of these things, 
they happen through 

682
00:37:13,610 --> 00:37:16,690
conversations to understand, you
know, each one's needs, You know

683
00:37:16,690 --> 00:37:18,890
what they know, what they don't 
know, what they're comfortable 

684
00:37:18,890 --> 00:37:20,250
with, what they're not 
comfortable with. 

685
00:37:20,930 --> 00:37:24,490
And by the end of that 
conversation, we're usually able

686
00:37:24,490 --> 00:37:27,570
to strike a balance between 
security and usability. 

687
00:37:28,090 --> 00:37:30,930
And most individuals that we've 
worked with so far have been 

688
00:37:30,930 --> 00:37:33,810
extremely happy with, with the 
result. 

689
00:37:33,850 --> 00:37:37,130
They've come from knowing 
nothing to, you know, feeling as

690
00:37:37,130 --> 00:37:39,570
comfortable as using a credit 
card when it comes to Bitcoin. 

691
00:37:40,180 --> 00:37:43,620
And that's a win in our book. 
Love. 

692
00:37:43,620 --> 00:37:46,660
It yeah, 100%. 
I say it all the time, you know 

693
00:37:47,220 --> 00:37:52,580
at first before you take self 
custody it it seems so daunting.

694
00:37:52,580 --> 00:37:55,700
It's it's so terrifying. 
And then now after years it's 

695
00:37:55,700 --> 00:37:57,660
like it's like sending an 
e-mail. 

696
00:37:57,660 --> 00:38:03,340
So on that note, Vendetta maybe 
for someone that is new watching

697
00:38:03,340 --> 00:38:06,780
this show still has the coins on
the exchange. 

698
00:38:06,780 --> 00:38:08,940
Why is self custody the 
revolution? 

699
00:38:08,940 --> 00:38:13,940
Why do they need to take self 
custody and maybe persuade them 

700
00:38:13,940 --> 00:38:17,980
that it's not as terrifying as 
they might be thinking self 

701
00:38:17,980 --> 00:38:20,260
custody is? 
Absolutely not terrifying. 

702
00:38:20,260 --> 00:38:22,340
I mean, it's just new. 
That's all it is. 

703
00:38:22,340 --> 00:38:25,340
And you know, like anything, I 
mean driving a car, you have to 

704
00:38:25,340 --> 00:38:27,020
learn it. 
No one was born a driver. 

705
00:38:27,020 --> 00:38:29,060
So it's just another skill that 
you have to learn. 

706
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,840
Leaving your money on exchange 
is no different than leaving 

707
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:33,680
your money on a bank. 
It does not belong to you. 

708
00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:35,720
It can be taken away from you on
a win. 

709
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,040
And if that's not abundantly 
clear in the last three or five 

710
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:42,840
years, well then I wouldn't 
recommend that you wait around 

711
00:38:43,400 --> 00:38:45,640
until your turn comes because it
is coming. 

712
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,520
I genuinely believe that Fiat 
currencies are all going to 

713
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,600
zero. 
It's just a question of when it 

714
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:52,560
reaches certain cities in 
certain countries. 

715
00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,840
It's no longer a question of if 
as far as I'm concerned. 

716
00:38:56,410 --> 00:39:00,450
So if you want any form of 
control over your your wealth, 

717
00:39:00,450 --> 00:39:04,290
preservation of your wealth, you
need to have full control over 

718
00:39:04,290 --> 00:39:06,090
it. 
Leaving it in something that's 

719
00:39:06,370 --> 00:39:09,890
not in your hands, that's where 
somebody else decides what you 

720
00:39:09,890 --> 00:39:12,610
can and kind of do with it is is
insane. 

721
00:39:13,170 --> 00:39:16,650
I mean, I don't know what kind 
of life you know you want to 

722
00:39:16,650 --> 00:39:19,890
live, but if anyone that wants 
to live with any form of. 

723
00:39:20,580 --> 00:39:24,140
Dignity, integrity and self 
value will absolutely not allow 

724
00:39:24,140 --> 00:39:27,780
themselves live under the 
dictatorship of somebody else. 

725
00:39:28,220 --> 00:39:30,380
And if you don't control your 
money, you have nothing. 

726
00:39:30,380 --> 00:39:34,340
You are a slave to the system 
and so in order not to fall into

727
00:39:34,340 --> 00:39:37,740
that trap, you need to opt out. 
Fortunately we have Bitcoin. 

728
00:39:37,780 --> 00:39:40,100
It is the only exit available 
out there. 

729
00:39:40,100 --> 00:39:44,140
There is nothing else, even 
traditional things where people 

730
00:39:44,140 --> 00:39:46,340
used to preserve well, like 
golden real estate, those are 

731
00:39:46,340 --> 00:39:49,940
not safe anymore or or are not 
as safe as many people think. 

732
00:39:50,530 --> 00:39:54,730
That is a fact I've I've seen. 
I've seen these things stolen 

733
00:39:54,730 --> 00:39:59,610
from folks, legitimate folks you
know too many times to to even 

734
00:39:59,610 --> 00:40:01,690
want to listen to that 
conversation anymore. 

735
00:40:01,850 --> 00:40:05,170
Those shilling it are not, are 
doing it from a financially 

736
00:40:05,170 --> 00:40:07,410
privileged position. 
They don't know what really 

737
00:40:07,450 --> 00:40:10,490
happens when things get really 
bad and when they do. 

738
00:40:10,490 --> 00:40:14,330
Let me tell you, anything 
physical is not safe unless you 

739
00:40:14,330 --> 00:40:17,330
have an army behind you to 
protect it, which 99% of the 

740
00:40:17,330 --> 00:40:21,700
world does not. 100% and and 
that's what you guys do. 

741
00:40:21,700 --> 00:40:23,220
That's what you guys do at the 
Bitcoin way. 

742
00:40:23,220 --> 00:40:28,460
You you you literally hand hold,
hand hold, hand held or hand 

743
00:40:28,460 --> 00:40:30,660
hold. 
I can't think of the correct 

744
00:40:30,660 --> 00:40:34,380
terminology. 
Hand hold people to and and 

745
00:40:34,380 --> 00:40:36,780
these are essentially people 
that have are not familiar with 

746
00:40:36,780 --> 00:40:39,220
self custody. 
Perhaps they see self custody as

747
00:40:39,220 --> 00:40:42,300
this daunting thing, which it 
really isn't once you get the 

748
00:40:42,300 --> 00:40:43,820
hang of it. 
I think it's a lot easier than 

749
00:40:43,820 --> 00:40:46,250
opening a bank account in my 
opinion, right? 

750
00:40:46,490 --> 00:40:49,490
But I could see why. 
If you spend the majority of 

751
00:40:49,490 --> 00:40:52,650
your life in the Fiat matrix and
then you come to Bitcoin, you 

752
00:40:52,650 --> 00:40:55,650
look at that, you're like, holy 
cow, hell no. 

753
00:40:55,650 --> 00:40:58,530
This stuff is absolutely 
terrifying. 

754
00:40:58,890 --> 00:41:02,210
So guys, before we move on to 
the news and thank you so much 

755
00:41:02,210 --> 00:41:05,650
Vendetta for giving that that 
presentation on the Bitcoin way,

756
00:41:05,650 --> 00:41:09,170
I want to give a shout out to 
our sponsor, the Bitcoin 

757
00:41:09,170 --> 00:41:12,090
conference Bitcoin 2024. 
It's going to be in Nashville, 

758
00:41:12,090 --> 00:41:16,490
TN July 25th through the 27th 
2024. 

759
00:41:16,490 --> 00:41:19,730
The year of the having, you 
don't want to miss it. 

760
00:41:20,010 --> 00:41:25,210
For a GA ticket, it's 349. 
For an industry pass, it's 849. 

761
00:41:25,210 --> 00:41:28,370
If you're trying to get a job in
the industry or if you're trying

762
00:41:28,370 --> 00:41:30,810
to come to the conference a day 
where it's a little bit more 

763
00:41:30,810 --> 00:41:32,490
chill. 
For example, the day that 

764
00:41:32,490 --> 00:41:36,330
Michael Sealer walks around the 
conference is the industry day. 

765
00:41:36,530 --> 00:41:38,770
You definitely want to get the 
industry pass. 

766
00:41:38,770 --> 00:41:41,010
It's 849. 
That will give you 3 days at the

767
00:41:41,010 --> 00:41:43,920
Bitcoin conference. 
And for the ultimate experience,

768
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:50,160
if you're a whale, get yourself 
a whale pass for $4749. 

769
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:54,000
By the way, you can use promo 
code simply to get a 10%

Take your Bitcoin into self 
custody and the way that you do 

795
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,240
that is by buying yourself a 
hardware wallet. 

796
00:43:30,240 --> 00:43:33,720
We recommend the passport. 
It's the sleekest, the UI as 

797
00:43:33,720 --> 00:43:36,720
awesome, and it's very, very 
nicely designed. 

798
00:43:36,720 --> 00:43:38,640
Not to mention that it's open 
source. 

799
00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:42,480
Anyways, check out this article 
by Bitcoin Magazine or friends 

800
00:43:42,480 --> 00:43:45,920
over at Bitcoin Magazine. 
U.S. government frames Bitcoin 

801
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:51,100
privacy as Criminal New document
New court document reveal that 

802
00:43:51,100 --> 00:43:54,660
the US government frames the use
of of blockchain analysis 

803
00:43:54,660 --> 00:43:58,900
countermeasures as criminal 
right and this is a continuation

804
00:43:58,980 --> 00:44:02,380
of the trend. 
What trend right The remember 

805
00:44:02,380 --> 00:44:07,100
the proposed bill by Elizabeth 
Warren, she she's using wording 

806
00:44:07,100 --> 00:44:11,500
in there that would basically 
criminalize unhosted wallet. 

807
00:44:11,500 --> 00:44:14,900
What is an unhosted wallet? 
An unhosted wallet is anything 

808
00:44:14,900 --> 00:44:17,920
If you take self custody of your
Bitcoin and it's not an 

809
00:44:17,920 --> 00:44:21,520
exchange, it's not on a 
brokerage, that is an unhosted 

810
00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:24,640
wallet, right? 
And why are they so hell bent on

811
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:28,640
attacking privacy? 
Why are they so hell bent on, 

812
00:44:29,400 --> 00:44:32,000
you know, attacking the right to
self custody? 

813
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:35,720
Well, it's obvious because it's 
out of their control. 

814
00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:38,280
And this reminds me of Before I 
get into the article, this 

815
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:42,720
reminds me of this, this passage
from The Sovereign Individual, a

816
00:44:42,720 --> 00:44:44,680
book that we highly recommend 
that you read. 

817
00:44:45,750 --> 00:44:49,070
And it goes something like this.
New technologies will allow 

818
00:44:49,070 --> 00:44:52,030
holders of wealth to bypass the 
national monopolies that have 

819
00:44:52,030 --> 00:44:54,350
issued and regulated money in 
the modern period. 

820
00:44:54,710 --> 00:44:57,150
Their importance for controlling
the world's wealth will be 

821
00:44:57,150 --> 00:45:00,190
transcended by mathematical 
algorithms that have no physical

822
00:45:00,190 --> 00:45:02,750
existence. 
In the new Millennium, cyber 

823
00:45:02,750 --> 00:45:06,070
money controlled by private 
markets will supersede Fiat 

824
00:45:06,070 --> 00:45:09,600
money issued by governments 
lacking their custom scope to 

825
00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:11,840
tax and inflate. 
Governments, even in 

826
00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:14,880
traditionally civil civil 
countries, will turn nasty. 

827
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:18,440
Businesses that offer services 
that facilitate the realization 

828
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,920
of autonomy by individuals will 
be subject to infiltration, 

829
00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:25,480
sabotage, and disruption. 
Arbitrary forfeiture of part of 

830
00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:28,280
property, already commonplace in
the United States, where it 

831
00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:31,880
occurs 5000 times a week, will 
become even more pervasive. 

832
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:35,790
Governments will violate human 
rights, censor the free flow of 

833
00:45:35,790 --> 00:45:40,030
information, sabotage useful 
technologies, and worse. 

834
00:45:40,790 --> 00:45:42,390
Right? 
As governments continue to lose 

835
00:45:42,390 --> 00:45:45,270
their monopoly on the creation 
of money, their monopoly on 

836
00:45:45,270 --> 00:45:50,550
information, You know, these 
things start to seem crazy 

837
00:45:50,710 --> 00:45:54,550
because remember the there's 
there's literally in the US 

838
00:45:54,550 --> 00:45:56,870
Constitution, specifically the 
4th Amendment. 

839
00:45:56,870 --> 00:45:59,910
It literally says no 
unreasonable searches and 

840
00:45:59,910 --> 00:46:03,110
seizures. 
This sounds fucking totally 

841
00:46:03,110 --> 00:46:07,400
unreasonable to me, doesn't it? 
Because that fundamentally what 

842
00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:11,720
is happening is they've never 
had competition. 

843
00:46:11,720 --> 00:46:15,080
More importantly, the 
competition that they've had in 

844
00:46:15,080 --> 00:46:19,760
the past, they've been able to 
use their monopoly on violence 

845
00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:22,280
to shut it down very, very 
quickly. 

846
00:46:22,720 --> 00:46:26,000
Remember what happened when 
Libra announced that they were 

847
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:29,680
launching their own, their own 
currency? 

848
00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:35,560
This is why I believe that x.com
Twitter, if it's not going to go

849
00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:40,320
the way of PayPal, is eventually
going to use Bitcoin because the

850
00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:45,200
only currency is the only 
network that governments cannot 

851
00:46:45,200 --> 00:46:48,240
censor, that governments cannot 
stop, And because they can't 

852
00:46:48,240 --> 00:46:51,560
stop it, because they can't 
censor it, they're forced to 

853
00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:54,960
compete with it on equal footing
anyways. 

854
00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:58,120
It goes on to say U.S. 
government frames Bitcoin 

855
00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:02,720
privacy as criminal and another 
unfortunate term, unfortunate 

856
00:47:02,720 --> 00:47:06,460
term of events for anyone hoping
the right to privacy to be 

857
00:47:06,460 --> 00:47:09,940
protected as guaranteed by the 
US Constitution, the United 

858
00:47:09,940 --> 00:47:13,340
Nations Declaration of Human 
Rights, or applicable state and 

859
00:47:13,340 --> 00:47:15,860
federal law. 
The US government has argued 

860
00:47:15,860 --> 00:47:18,460
that the disclosure of 
proprietary chain analysis 

861
00:47:18,460 --> 00:47:23,340
heuristics information in the 
case US verse Sterling Sterling,

862
00:47:23,500 --> 00:47:27,340
Sterling of would quote, 
jeopardize numerous law 

863
00:47:27,340 --> 00:47:30,860
enforcement investigations and 
impact the effectiveness of law 

864
00:47:30,860 --> 00:47:34,590
and face law enforcement tracing
tools by enabling the 

865
00:47:34,590 --> 00:47:38,750
development of quote criminal 
countermeasures of blockchain of

866
00:47:38,750 --> 00:47:43,150
blockchain analysis. 
Remember we saw very similar 

867
00:47:43,150 --> 00:47:49,230
wording when the US used North 
Korea as a justification to 

868
00:47:49,230 --> 00:47:53,030
sanction open source software 
that has never been done in U.S.

869
00:47:53,030 --> 00:47:56,030
history. 
Sanctions are meant for 

870
00:47:56,030 --> 00:47:58,070
government. 
Sanctions are meant for 

871
00:47:58,070 --> 00:48:00,870
individual businesses or 
individuals. 

872
00:48:01,420 --> 00:48:03,540
They were never met for 
software. 

873
00:48:03,540 --> 00:48:06,380
Software is a tool, right? 
It's a tool. 

874
00:48:06,620 --> 00:48:11,780
Anyone could use it. 
And if you set that precedent of

875
00:48:11,780 --> 00:48:16,060
being able to sanction certain 
open source software, you know 

876
00:48:16,060 --> 00:48:18,540
what else is open source 
software? 

877
00:48:19,060 --> 00:48:22,460
Bitcoin. 
How long until they say we can't

878
00:48:22,460 --> 00:48:27,780
have Bitcoin because it's a 
threat to US sanction policy? 

879
00:48:27,940 --> 00:48:32,460
How long are they going to say 
we can't have Bitcoin because it

880
00:48:32,460 --> 00:48:37,580
becomes incredibly hard for us 
to surveil things because this 

881
00:48:37,580 --> 00:48:39,340
is the direction that it's 
going. 

882
00:48:39,340 --> 00:48:43,820
This is the inevitable clash 
that Corey Clifton, CEO Swan, is

883
00:48:43,820 --> 00:48:46,460
talking about in the race to 
avoid the war. 

884
00:48:46,620 --> 00:48:51,300
This is why it's so important 
that you take it upon yourself 

885
00:48:51,460 --> 00:48:54,480
to orange pill. 
As many people around you as 

886
00:48:54,480 --> 00:48:57,400
fast as possible. 
Don't get distracted with the 

887
00:48:57,400 --> 00:48:59,840
left and right. 
Don't get distracted with the 

888
00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:03,640
Republican versus Democrat or in
your country, the conservative 

889
00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:06,480
versus liberal right. 
It is not. 

890
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:09,080
That's not the fight. 
That's the divide and conquer 

891
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:12,800
strategy. 
Get in tune with what's really 

892
00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:14,680
going on. 
It's really the party of 

893
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:18,240
freedom, peace, Bitcoin, 
prosperity versus the party of 

894
00:49:18,240 --> 00:49:20,320
green. 
The party of nihilism, war, 

895
00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:24,150
poverty, destruction. 
That's really what's at stake 

896
00:49:24,150 --> 00:49:26,390
here. 
When I mean Bitcoin or slavery, 

897
00:49:26,390 --> 00:49:29,830
I'm not exaggerating. 
And beauty on at bit block Boom 

898
00:49:29,830 --> 00:49:32,430
said it even better. 
No, Nico, it's not Bitcoin or 

899
00:49:32,430 --> 00:49:35,550
slavery. 
It is Bitcoin or death, right? 

900
00:49:35,710 --> 00:49:38,590
It's very strong words, but I 
agree with him anyways. 

901
00:49:38,590 --> 00:49:41,790
It goes on to say the oath each 
and every U.S. government 

902
00:49:41,790 --> 00:49:44,790
employee pledges when first 
taking office reads. 

903
00:49:45,090 --> 00:49:47,850
I do solemnly swear that I will 
support and defend the 

904
00:49:47,850 --> 00:49:50,530
Constitution of the United 
States against all enemies, 

905
00:49:50,530 --> 00:49:53,810
foreign and domestic, that I 
will be that I will bear true 

906
00:49:53,810 --> 00:49:56,530
faith and allegiance to the 
same, that I take this 

907
00:49:56,530 --> 00:50:00,210
obligation freely, without any 
mental reservation or purpose of

908
00:50:00,210 --> 00:50:03,290
evasion, and that I will well 
and faithfully the start 

909
00:50:03,290 --> 00:50:06,330
discharge the duties of the 
office on which I am about to 

910
00:50:06,330 --> 00:50:07,970
enter. 
So help me God. 

911
00:50:08,210 --> 00:50:11,050
Apparently, this oath is only 
applicable so long. 

912
00:50:11,530 --> 00:50:13,970
So long it serves the US 
government's agenda. 

913
00:50:14,130 --> 00:50:17,490
While attempting to retain a 
protective order to seal the 

914
00:50:17,490 --> 00:50:21,170
disclosure of chain analysis 
heuristic information, the US 

915
00:50:21,170 --> 00:50:24,290
government has in essence, 
argued that the right to privacy

916
00:50:24,290 --> 00:50:27,010
does not exist when transacting 
on the blockchain. 

917
00:50:27,250 --> 00:50:30,170
In the newly released court 
documents, the US government 

918
00:50:30,170 --> 00:50:33,330
defined software developed to 
protect individuals financial 

919
00:50:33,330 --> 00:50:37,570
privacy on the blockchain, such 
as coin joins as adversarial, 

920
00:50:38,030 --> 00:50:40,790
contending that the disclosure 
of chain analysis, training 

921
00:50:40,790 --> 00:50:44,350
methods and techniques bears the
response a reasonable 

922
00:50:44,350 --> 00:50:48,230
expectation to enable 
circumvention of the law. 

923
00:50:49,030 --> 00:50:52,950
That's right, your privacy, 
because you're seeking privacy. 

924
00:50:53,110 --> 00:50:56,070
They're literally telling you 
because you're seeking privacy, 

925
00:50:56,070 --> 00:50:57,950
even though you're not 
committing a crime, you're 

926
00:50:57,950 --> 00:51:01,710
circumventing the law. 
This is crazy, crazy rhetoric. 

927
00:51:01,710 --> 00:51:04,910
This is crazy. 
They're telling you how they 

928
00:51:04,910 --> 00:51:08,950
feel about this and connect us 
with the wording coming out of 

929
00:51:08,950 --> 00:51:12,230
the Elizabeth Warren bill. 
Connect us with the wording that

930
00:51:12,230 --> 00:51:15,790
came out of the Presidential 
economic report that was a hit 

931
00:51:15,790 --> 00:51:19,310
piece towards Bitcoin, towards 
non government money. 

932
00:51:19,590 --> 00:51:23,750
And it was, it was advocating 
for, you know, what central bank

933
00:51:23,750 --> 00:51:26,150
digital currencies, you know 
what central bank digital 

934
00:51:26,150 --> 00:51:27,430
currencies is not going to 
allow. 

935
00:51:27,430 --> 00:51:30,910
It's not going to allow privacy.
It's going to allow total 

936
00:51:30,910 --> 00:51:34,630
totalitarian control of your 
money by governments. 

937
00:51:35,500 --> 00:51:38,420
So they're setting the frame, 
They're using the rhetoric, 

938
00:51:38,420 --> 00:51:42,700
they're using very aggressive 
rhetoric to try to villainize 

939
00:51:43,140 --> 00:51:46,540
Bitcoin in the eyes of the 
uninformed. 

940
00:51:46,540 --> 00:51:49,140
Which is why we were talking 
about Joe Rogan in the very 

941
00:51:49,140 --> 00:51:53,100
beginning of the show, because 
people like Joe Rogan, they have

942
00:51:53,100 --> 00:51:56,460
such a large platform, they 
could talk about this stuff. 

943
00:51:56,460 --> 00:51:59,260
In fact, he has talked about 
Cbdc's. 

944
00:52:01,620 --> 00:52:05,990
Unfortunately, the people that 
benefit from the Fiat money 

945
00:52:05,990 --> 00:52:10,590
printer, in fact their jobs 
depend on it, are obviously not 

946
00:52:10,590 --> 00:52:14,550
going to be fans of Bitcoin 
because that means it's the end 

947
00:52:14,710 --> 00:52:18,710
of the racket. 
It is the end of this wealth 

948
00:52:18,710 --> 00:52:22,190
redistribution mechanism that 
affects the lower and middle 

949
00:52:22,190 --> 00:52:24,910
classes the most because they 
don't have the means to save an 

950
00:52:24,910 --> 00:52:28,830
assets back to the back to the 
government and back to the very 

951
00:52:28,830 --> 00:52:31,030
wealthy. 
It's the end of the party. 

952
00:52:31,030 --> 00:52:34,010
So they're going to attack, 
they're going to attack Bitcoin 

953
00:52:34,010 --> 00:52:37,090
with everything they have. 
And This is why we have to 

954
00:52:37,130 --> 00:52:41,690
garner enough popular support, 
enough people need to be holding

955
00:52:41,690 --> 00:52:44,890
Bitcoin in those said countries 
because we do become an 

956
00:52:44,930 --> 00:52:46,930
intransigent minority. 
At that point. 

957
00:52:47,450 --> 00:52:50,330
It's like, you know, all you 
need is like 5 to 10% of the 

958
00:52:50,330 --> 00:52:54,570
population that does not move on
the issue and it becomes 

959
00:52:54,570 --> 00:52:58,610
incredibly difficult to pass 
anti Bitcoin legislation. 

960
00:52:58,850 --> 00:53:01,730
The gun lobby in the US is a 
great example of that. 

961
00:53:02,220 --> 00:53:06,260
Try passing a gun law in the US.
It is incredibly difficult, if 

962
00:53:06,260 --> 00:53:08,100
not impossible. 
Why? 

963
00:53:08,340 --> 00:53:12,100
Because a large portion of the 
population loves guns. 

964
00:53:12,740 --> 00:53:18,540
So I hope we can get there fast 
enough before they roll out the 

965
00:53:18,540 --> 00:53:20,980
CBD C's. 
Because I suspect once they roll

966
00:53:20,980 --> 00:53:23,470
out the CBD C's I don't think 
they're going to want 

967
00:53:23,470 --> 00:53:24,910
competition to be honest with 
you. 

968
00:53:25,110 --> 00:53:28,190
Anyways, it goes on to say 
unfortunately it is unclear 

969
00:53:28,190 --> 00:53:30,470
which laws the US government is 
referring to. 

970
00:53:30,630 --> 00:53:33,310
The arguments that the 
disclosure would enable, quote 

971
00:53:33,510 --> 00:53:36,350
criminals, drug trafficking 
organizations, and terrorists to

972
00:53:36,350 --> 00:53:39,590
circumvent law enforcement 
cannot be made in good faith as 

973
00:53:39,590 --> 00:53:44,110
chain analysis is Own 2023 
Crypto Crime Report has found 

974
00:53:44,110 --> 00:53:47,350
the overall transaction volume 
of illicit activity to lay at a 

975
00:53:47,350 --> 00:53:51,870
merely .24%. 
Not to mention that the fact the

976
00:53:51,950 --> 00:53:55,350
the the the vast majority of 
criminal activity, drug 

977
00:53:55,350 --> 00:54:00,550
trafficking and terrorism, what 
they use is U.S. dollars. 

978
00:54:00,550 --> 00:54:06,430
OK, they use Fiat currencies. 
So why are they so focused on 

979
00:54:06,430 --> 00:54:11,830
this tiny percentage? 
I mean, it's obvious they don't 

980
00:54:11,830 --> 00:54:14,670
like competition. 
Just as the early Internet was 

981
00:54:14,670 --> 00:54:18,470
allegedly only used for crime, 
the share of daytoday commerce 

982
00:54:18,470 --> 00:54:21,310
on the blockchain increases. 
That Bitcoin adoption grows 

983
00:54:21,900 --> 00:54:24,740
therefore, cannot be argued that
the development of privacy 

984
00:54:24,740 --> 00:54:28,420
protection protecting software 
is adversarial in any sense of 

985
00:54:28,420 --> 00:54:31,460
the world, except to chain 
analysis, business model, and 

986
00:54:31,460 --> 00:54:34,740
the surveillance agenda of the 
US intelligence complex who 

987
00:54:34,740 --> 00:54:39,100
invested 1.6 million in chain 
analysis in 2020 and another 

988
00:54:39,100 --> 00:54:46,820
1.64 million in 2021 via the 
CIA's venture capital fund in Q 

989
00:54:46,820 --> 00:54:49,590
Tel. 
As long as the development and 

990
00:54:49,590 --> 00:54:54,390
use of privacy protecting 
software such as PGP, E to EE or

991
00:54:54,390 --> 00:54:57,510
VPN's cannot be deemed as 
criminal under the 1st and 4th 

992
00:54:57,510 --> 00:55:00,590
Amendment, neither can the 
development or use of software 

993
00:55:00,590 --> 00:55:03,310
aim to protect one's financial 
privacy in Bitcoin. 

994
00:55:03,510 --> 00:55:06,270
However, it appears that 
constitutional frameworks do not

995
00:55:06,270 --> 00:55:09,670
stop the US government from 
putting forward statements which

996
00:55:09,670 --> 00:55:13,110
directly undermine the people's 
right to protect from unwanted 

997
00:55:13,110 --> 00:55:15,710
surveillance. 
Verifying blockchain 

998
00:55:15,710 --> 00:55:18,870
surveillance countermeasures 
such as criminal is Jews is just

999
00:55:18,870 --> 00:55:21,870
another step the US government 
has been taking towards total 

1000
00:55:21,870 --> 00:55:25,390
surveillance of U.S. citizens 
communications in recent years. 

1001
00:55:25,710 --> 00:55:29,790
In 2015, Congress voted for the 
prolonging of the Patriot Act 

1002
00:55:29,790 --> 00:55:33,270
via via the US Freedom Act, 
which continues to allow the 

1003
00:55:33,270 --> 00:55:35,790
bulk collection of 
telecommunication data via 

1004
00:55:36,190 --> 00:55:40,070
telecommunication providers and 
the proposed Earn It Act, which 

1005
00:55:40,070 --> 00:55:43,270
would in essence would outlaw 
end to end encryption. 

1006
00:55:43,720 --> 00:55:46,920
So far, the only attempt to 
circumvent the the law in the US

1007
00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:50,600
government's response to minute 
order is to be found in its own 

1008
00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:55,240
argument argumentation. 
So again, like the the Earn It 

1009
00:55:55,240 --> 00:56:00,760
Act, the the the Act proposed by
Elizabeth Warren, that would be 

1010
00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:04,080
a de facto ban on Bitcoin in the
United States. 

1011
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:07,000
Like whose side are these people
really on? 

1012
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:09,720
Like, that's the question that I
have for you guys, like this is 

1013
00:56:09,720 --> 00:56:12,970
absolutely bonkers. 
Even in the US where the 

1014
00:56:12,970 --> 00:56:15,890
Constitution, the Constitution, 
even though no one's following 

1015
00:56:15,890 --> 00:56:20,250
that nowadays, the constitution 
specifically says you cannot do 

1016
00:56:20,250 --> 00:56:22,650
these things. 
It looks like they don't give a 

1017
00:56:22,650 --> 00:56:25,130
flying fuck. 
And why don't they give a flying

1018
00:56:25,130 --> 00:56:29,050
fuck? 
Well, it's obvious they do not 

1019
00:56:29,130 --> 00:56:34,050
like competition and they see 
Bitcoin as a clear and present 

1020
00:56:34,170 --> 00:56:39,210
danger when there's competition.
You know, all of a sudden, yeah,

1021
00:56:39,210 --> 00:56:43,010
Bitcoins for terrorism, Bitcoin 
is for extremists, Bitcoin is 

1022
00:56:43,010 --> 00:56:46,050
for drug dealers. 
Bitcoin is what about dollars? 

1023
00:56:47,090 --> 00:56:48,570
They just put their head in the 
sand. 

1024
00:56:48,570 --> 00:56:50,810
They completely ignore the 
dollars aspect of that. 

1025
00:56:50,810 --> 00:56:53,210
They completely ignore the fact 
that, you know, the Mexican 

1026
00:56:53,210 --> 00:56:54,850
cartels, you know, you know what
they like? 

1027
00:56:54,850 --> 00:56:58,770
They like hard, hard, cold cash.
They they ignore that aspect. 

1028
00:56:58,770 --> 00:57:01,770
No, it Bitcoin is the boogeyman,
right. 

1029
00:57:02,010 --> 00:57:07,660
So look, their hope is that 
enough people read this that are

1030
00:57:07,660 --> 00:57:10,180
uninformed. 
That's their hope. 

1031
00:57:10,420 --> 00:57:13,900
Because as soon as people are 
informed with the truth, as soon

1032
00:57:13,900 --> 00:57:18,140
as people are informed with the 
facts, and they're able to make 

1033
00:57:18,220 --> 00:57:23,140
good decisions based on reality 
and truth, they have no choice. 

1034
00:57:23,140 --> 00:57:26,540
They have no hope in trying to 
convince the American public of 

1035
00:57:26,540 --> 00:57:30,780
what's going on. 
So it falls down to you to share

1036
00:57:30,780 --> 00:57:33,950
this type of content, to be 
informed with the facts so that 

1037
00:57:33,950 --> 00:57:37,390
when you go to your Thanksgiving
dinner, you know, and and Uncle 

1038
00:57:37,390 --> 00:57:41,550
Jim is like Bitcoin is for 
terrorism, you're gonna say no, 

1039
00:57:41,550 --> 00:57:44,390
I got the facts. 
The US dollar has been the one 

1040
00:57:44,390 --> 00:57:48,410
used for terrorism, right. 
So, yeah, that's my take on 

1041
00:57:48,410 --> 00:57:50,170
that, Opti. 
I'm curious what you think. 

1042
00:57:50,170 --> 00:57:51,370
And then we'll move on to 
vendetta. 

1043
00:57:51,770 --> 00:57:52,770
Yeah, I mean, I've said it on 
the. 

1044
00:57:52,770 --> 00:57:56,370
Show plenty of times. 
We all know that the dollar 

1045
00:57:56,370 --> 00:57:59,410
paper money is is the real money
of criminals. 

1046
00:57:59,410 --> 00:58:03,410
But I find it absolutely 
incredible that they will use 

1047
00:58:03,450 --> 00:58:06,170
this narrative that Bitcoin is 
for money launderers, Bitcoin is

1048
00:58:06,170 --> 00:58:08,890
for financial criminals, and and
they're going to constantly use 

1049
00:58:08,890 --> 00:58:13,010
this until it is no longer worth
its salt. 

1050
00:58:13,710 --> 00:58:15,230
Because the field world is 
terrified. 

1051
00:58:15,590 --> 00:58:18,470
And of course they understand 
what we understand. 

1052
00:58:18,470 --> 00:58:21,150
Bitcoin can't be stopped. 
It is hard capped. 

1053
00:58:21,150 --> 00:58:24,070
It is censorship resistant. 
It is decentralized, so outside 

1054
00:58:24,070 --> 00:58:26,790
of the control of these people. 
It is synonymous. 

1055
00:58:26,790 --> 00:58:29,790
So you don't know whose money is
who and it is fully transparent.

1056
00:58:30,030 --> 00:58:33,190
So of course all these features 
combined are why they're 

1057
00:58:33,190 --> 00:58:36,070
absolutely terrified, because 
they want a money that they can 

1058
00:58:36,070 --> 00:58:38,230
fully control, they won't fully 
survey. 

1059
00:58:38,750 --> 00:58:42,390
And here we are as bitcoiners, 
and it's only 14 years old and 

1060
00:58:42,390 --> 00:58:43,630
it's already out of their 
control. 

1061
00:58:43,710 --> 00:58:45,430
It's already a little too 
little, too late. 

1062
00:58:46,110 --> 00:58:48,790
And so of course the Fiat 
parasites want to stop Bitcoin, 

1063
00:58:48,790 --> 00:58:50,630
or rather attempt to stop 
Bitcoin. 

1064
00:58:51,110 --> 00:58:54,630
And This is why they try to 
paint us all as criminals. 

1065
00:58:54,630 --> 00:58:58,070
And This is why they're fighting
privacy technology and shouts 

1066
00:58:58,110 --> 00:59:00,470
out to Lola leads for 
continuously covering this 

1067
00:59:00,550 --> 00:59:02,750
theme. 
She's been doing a very, very 

1068
00:59:02,750 --> 00:59:04,950
great job. 
And another piece Lola covered 

1069
00:59:04,950 --> 00:59:08,910
that the Chain Analysis CEO. 
Admitted that their black box 

1070
00:59:08,910 --> 00:59:12,870
software isn't a set in stone as
chain Anal would like you to 

1071
00:59:12,870 --> 00:59:15,070
believe. 
Like it basically is guessing 

1072
00:59:15,070 --> 00:59:18,510
and putting people in jail and 
they admit this stuff. 

1073
00:59:18,790 --> 00:59:22,870
And now we have a further proof 
that the US government is doing 

1074
00:59:22,870 --> 00:59:26,070
PR for chain analysis and so 
that they can continue to put 

1075
00:59:26,070 --> 00:59:28,430
people in jail. 
Continue to put innocent people 

1076
00:59:28,430 --> 00:59:31,630
in jail, by the way. 
And this is like where we are 

1077
00:59:31,630 --> 00:59:33,310
right now, that they're like, 
yeah, you know. 

1078
00:59:35,540 --> 00:59:38,020
It would. 
It would you know it wouldn't 

1079
00:59:38,020 --> 00:59:41,220
protect people if we told you 
guys what the software is that 

1080
00:59:41,220 --> 00:59:43,060
chain analysis is running like 
it. 

1081
00:59:43,100 --> 00:59:45,460
It's going to help criminals. 
It's like, yo, you are literally

1082
00:59:45,460 --> 00:59:48,740
hurting citizens right now and 
it almost seems like chain 

1083
00:59:48,740 --> 00:59:52,260
analysis is the real criminals. 
But of course you know criminals

1084
00:59:52,260 --> 00:59:55,300
covering for other criminals. 
It's all part of the game. 

1085
00:59:55,300 --> 01:00:00,180
But we know and history has 
shown this that the real 

1086
01:00:00,180 --> 01:00:03,940
criminals use dollar. 
Real criminals want dollars and.

1087
01:00:04,560 --> 01:00:09,240
Just because Bitcoin is, you 
know, a fringe technology, it's 

1088
01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:11,520
on the edge. 
It's cutting edge technology. 

1089
01:00:12,040 --> 01:00:15,960
We see this happen all the time.
The illiterate luddites that are

1090
01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:19,920
known as politicians constantly 
do the same thing. 

1091
01:00:19,920 --> 01:00:22,800
They're even doing this to AI or
they did it to e-mail and the 

1092
01:00:22,800 --> 01:00:26,160
Internet. 
Like they constantly are just in

1093
01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:29,880
perpetual fear of new technology
because they know that they 

1094
01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:32,280
can't control this technology 
and they're trying to protect 

1095
01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:35,040
their jobs. 
Like we see this happen in every

1096
01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:39,160
space, let alone when you find a
new technology or rather build a

1097
01:00:39,160 --> 01:00:42,120
new technology that is the best 
money in the world. 

1098
01:00:42,400 --> 01:00:45,800
And the only way they are able 
to do what they do is because of

1099
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:47,760
the money, because of the 
control of the money. 

1100
01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:51,160
It's just very obvious why they 
constantly fight Bitcoin. 

1101
01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:53,600
It's obvious why they always 
paint bitcoiners, it's 

1102
01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:56,200
criminals. 
It's obvious why they use the 

1103
01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:59,280
low hanging fruit of bitcoiners 
or money launderers is because 

1104
01:00:59,650 --> 01:01:02,770
they have rules that they can 
attack you with these with this 

1105
01:01:02,890 --> 01:01:05,370
very simple pretense. 
And here we are. 

1106
01:01:05,370 --> 01:01:08,250
They're just trying to fit, you 
know, the round peg in a square 

1107
01:01:08,250 --> 01:01:11,850
hole or square peg in a round 
hole so that they can try to 

1108
01:01:11,850 --> 01:01:13,810
gaslight and stop the adoption 
of Bitcoin. 

1109
01:01:13,810 --> 01:01:15,730
But I would say it's a little 
too little, too late. 

1110
01:01:16,090 --> 01:01:19,850
But I mean it just it's it's 
absolutely disgusting that the 

1111
01:01:19,850 --> 01:01:25,370
US government is playing PR for 
chain analysis when when they're

1112
01:01:25,370 --> 01:01:29,410
admitting that their software is
basically broken and here we are

1113
01:01:29,410 --> 01:01:32,250
like it's peak. 
I want to say peak clown wall, 

1114
01:01:32,250 --> 01:01:33,890
but it's not it's probably going
to get crazier. 

1115
01:01:34,210 --> 01:01:37,530
But hey man, This is why we tell
you guys to run nodes to take 

1116
01:01:37,530 --> 01:01:41,050
Bitcoin into self custody, to 
coin join like you know download

1117
01:01:41,050 --> 01:01:43,010
Sparrow wallet. 
People are asking, they haven't,

1118
01:01:43,090 --> 01:01:47,020
they haven't downloaded a node. 
They've not running nodes. 

1119
01:01:47,020 --> 01:01:49,620
Guys, it's very simple. 
Like the hardest part for a note

1120
01:01:49,620 --> 01:01:55,580
is probably verifying the the, 
the, you know, the the file that

1121
01:01:55,580 --> 01:01:59,060
you downloaded is actually what 
you think it is and it's not 

1122
01:01:59,060 --> 01:02:01,980
some kind of spyware. 
So like it's it's literally 

1123
01:02:01,980 --> 01:02:05,180
pressing buttons guys. 
So like you need to do this if 

1124
01:02:05,180 --> 01:02:08,660
you are taking this Bitcoin 
thing seriously because you 

1125
01:02:08,660 --> 01:02:10,500
cannot trust anyone with your 
money. 

1126
01:02:10,500 --> 01:02:13,700
And here we are like it. 
It keeps playing out over and 

1127
01:02:13,700 --> 01:02:16,620
over and over until everyone 
wakes up to the idea that like, 

1128
01:02:16,660 --> 01:02:20,660
oh, I either need an Uncle Jim 
or I need to become Uncle Jim 

1129
01:02:20,660 --> 01:02:23,500
for my friends and family. 
So here we are guys. 

1130
01:02:23,620 --> 01:02:27,500
It is the bear market. 
Now is the time to run nodes, to

1131
01:02:27,500 --> 01:02:31,940
take Bitcoin off exchanges, to 
consolidate UTXO's because it's 

1132
01:02:31,940 --> 01:02:34,940
going to get crazy and you do 
not want to get caught up in the

1133
01:02:34,940 --> 01:02:36,740
FOMO. 
Anyways. 

1134
01:02:37,020 --> 01:02:38,380
Vendetta. 
What's your thoughts on this? 

1135
01:02:38,980 --> 01:02:40,060
Absolutely. 
Man, I couldn't have. 

1136
01:02:40,060 --> 01:02:43,940
Said it any better, we are 
living in a world of legalized 

1137
01:02:43,940 --> 01:02:47,260
lawlessness, as far as I see it,
and this must come to an end. 

1138
01:02:47,740 --> 01:02:51,980
I mean, this is clearly a 
criminal organization at work. 

1139
01:02:51,980 --> 01:02:55,180
There is absolutely no 
accountability for anyone. 

1140
01:02:55,180 --> 01:02:58,260
And that's that's not right. 
I mean, there's the law is there

1141
01:02:58,260 --> 01:03:00,820
for a reason, but no one seems 
to be following it and no one 

1142
01:03:00,820 --> 01:03:03,500
seems to be doing anything about
it. 

1143
01:03:04,820 --> 01:03:08,060
Governments, you know, were put 
in place, you know, by the 

1144
01:03:08,060 --> 01:03:10,640
people. 
And you know, on the other side,

1145
01:03:10,640 --> 01:03:12,600
we, the people have the power to
take them out. 

1146
01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:15,640
And so we should, because if 
they're not doing their job 

1147
01:03:15,760 --> 01:03:17,440
well, then they're not supposed 
to be there. 

1148
01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:21,040
And Bitcoin is the peaceful way 
of going on about this. 

1149
01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:24,360
I mean, historically, tyranny 
has only been removed in one 

1150
01:03:24,360 --> 01:03:26,800
way, and that's violence. 
Bitcoin gives us, you know, for 

1151
01:03:26,800 --> 01:03:28,560
the first time, the peaceful way
of doing this. 

1152
01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:32,320
Everybody needs to understand 
that they do have a choice, a 

1153
01:03:32,320 --> 01:03:36,640
choice to exit the system that's
designed to keep them enslaved. 

1154
01:03:37,210 --> 01:03:39,730
You work day and night. 
Your money is losing value and 

1155
01:03:39,730 --> 01:03:41,890
your tax on top of it. 
So what's really left? 

1156
01:03:42,330 --> 01:03:45,370
If if you have a family, it is 
your job, It's your 

1157
01:03:45,370 --> 01:03:51,170
responsibility to at least study
Bitcoin enough and get off 0 to,

1158
01:03:51,410 --> 01:03:54,530
you know, preserve something for
the next generation. 

1159
01:03:55,010 --> 01:03:59,130
We tell everyone get off 0. 
Get as close as you possibly can

1160
01:03:59,130 --> 01:04:01,330
to one Bitcoin as fast as you 
can. 

1161
01:04:01,980 --> 01:04:04,740
And if, don't worry about the 
technical stuff, if you need 

1162
01:04:04,740 --> 01:04:07,020
help, there's plenty of help. 
We're here to help you. 

1163
01:04:07,020 --> 01:04:08,940
We're here to hand hold you to 
the entire process. 

1164
01:04:09,500 --> 01:04:12,900
But you cannot continue living 
your life, you know, under 

1165
01:04:12,900 --> 01:04:17,340
somebody else's dictatorship. 
It's just not the way to do it. 

1166
01:04:19,340 --> 01:04:22,660
100 percent, 100%. 
And I agree, man, that there's 

1167
01:04:22,660 --> 01:04:26,420
no excuse, there's no excuse at 
this point, you know, not to opt

1168
01:04:26,420 --> 01:04:28,900
out. 
There's no excuse not to take 

1169
01:04:28,900 --> 01:04:31,500
self custody. 
I think we're more than that 

1170
01:04:31,500 --> 01:04:33,140
point. 
Opti was mentioning nodes 

1171
01:04:33,140 --> 01:04:35,700
before. 
Definitely check out Start Nine.

1172
01:04:35,700 --> 01:04:38,260
It's the one I personally use. 
It's freaking awesome. 

1173
01:04:38,860 --> 01:04:41,460
Or you could just download 
Bitcoin Core on an old laptop. 

1174
01:04:41,620 --> 01:04:46,820
There's absolutely no excuse to 
literally stop trusting someone 

1175
01:04:46,820 --> 01:04:48,500
else's copy of the Bitcoin 
blockchain. 

1176
01:04:48,620 --> 01:04:50,900
Use your own copy of the Bitcoin
blockchain, right? 

1177
01:04:51,400 --> 01:04:53,080
You know, take self custody of 
your Bitcoin. 

1178
01:04:53,080 --> 01:04:55,200
There's so many great hardware 
wallets. 

1179
01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:58,040
There's so many great ones to 
choose from. 

1180
01:04:58,240 --> 01:05:02,280
Like it's just like it's so 
obvious right at this point with

1181
01:05:02,280 --> 01:05:05,280
clown world breaking down. 
You know Bitcoin provides this, 

1182
01:05:05,280 --> 01:05:09,480
like you know this orange life 
raft where you can find, you can

1183
01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:13,480
find peace there, you know. 
So anyways, before we move on 

1184
01:05:13,480 --> 01:05:17,810
to, before we move on to. 
The memes I'm gonna give a shout

Anyways, everybody, let's get to

1202
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:20,040
the meme review. 
The daily meme review. 

1203
01:06:26,120 --> 01:06:29,520
Alright guys, here we are. 
This is the meme review where 

1204
01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:34,440
you send us memes on Twitter. 
Tag me at Simply Bitcoin TV or 

1205
01:06:34,440 --> 01:06:37,960
at Optimist Fields. 
Don't just tag your favorite 

1206
01:06:37,960 --> 01:06:40,160
memes, tag your own memes. 
I'm OK with a little bit of 

1207
01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:42,840
nepotism on the meme reviews. 
I just need memes. 

1208
01:06:42,840 --> 01:06:44,680
Guys. 
I was talking to TK. 

1209
01:06:44,680 --> 01:06:49,340
He's in our Telegram group. 
T dot me simply Bitcoin And I 

1210
01:06:49,340 --> 01:06:53,420
was telling him, guys, we need 
more memes, so drop the tweets 

1211
01:06:53,420 --> 01:06:56,500
in our telegram group. 
I look at them every single 

1212
01:06:56,500 --> 01:06:58,500
morning. 
It's a lively conversation, but 

1213
01:06:58,500 --> 01:07:02,020
it's lacking in tweets. 
Guys, give me the tweet so I can

1214
01:07:02,020 --> 01:07:05,020
get them on the show. 
Anyways, you already know tweets

1215
01:07:05,020 --> 01:07:06,540
of the bullets, memes of the 
artillery. 

1216
01:07:06,540 --> 01:07:11,260
We are in an information war and
it's upon us as bitcoiners to 

1217
01:07:11,260 --> 01:07:14,460
spread the Bitcoin signal. 
There is no Bitcoin marketing 

1218
01:07:14,460 --> 01:07:16,020
team. 
You are the marketing team. 

1219
01:07:16,020 --> 01:07:19,740
So make the memes, get the cause
of actions out there, ridicule 

1220
01:07:19,740 --> 01:07:22,620
the corporate press, make some 
funny so your friends head stay 

1221
01:07:22,620 --> 01:07:25,420
in the game. 
This is all part of the journey.

1222
01:07:25,620 --> 01:07:28,580
Get the cause of actions out 
there so that more bitcoiners 

1223
01:07:28,700 --> 01:07:33,290
are born every single block. 
Anyways, 1st meme is by run the 

1224
01:07:33,290 --> 01:07:35,570
banks AKA at empty under score 
banks. 

1225
01:07:35,570 --> 01:07:38,010
He goes every time they drop 
another sign up. 

1226
01:07:38,330 --> 01:07:41,970
I like stacking more Bitcoin and
we got a I think there's like a 

1227
01:07:41,970 --> 01:07:43,810
Greek or a Roman statue here and
it goes. 

1228
01:07:43,810 --> 01:07:47,080
Do not concede revolt and it's a
peaceful revolution. 

1229
01:07:47,080 --> 01:07:49,000
All you got to do is just stack 
some stats guys. 

1230
01:07:49,240 --> 01:07:53,880
Opt out of the madness, opt out 
of the Fiat game and build a 

1231
01:07:53,920 --> 01:07:56,680
better life on Bitcoin. 
All right, this next one, this 

1232
01:07:56,680 --> 01:07:59,360
one's, this one might get a 
little clunky, but I absolutely 

1233
01:07:59,360 --> 01:08:02,320
love this one. 
Shout out the Greg's eyes Greg's

1234
01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:06,040
eyes one on Twitter and he goes 
loving this remix feature on Mid

1235
01:08:06,040 --> 01:08:09,420
Journey for Fake Toshi. 
And I'm a little colorblind so 

1236
01:08:09,420 --> 01:08:11,300
this one's a little hard for me 
to see. 

1237
01:08:11,340 --> 01:08:13,940
I I I can't make out the 
patterns on this one but they 

1238
01:08:13,940 --> 01:08:17,220
get clear as we go on guys. 
So here's the first one it's 

1239
01:08:17,420 --> 01:08:20,100
it's almost like there's. 
Someone there behind this 

1240
01:08:20,100 --> 01:08:23,460
flaming building? 
Oh wait, is this fake Toshi in 

1241
01:08:23,460 --> 01:08:25,779
his red shirt? 
Oh my goodness. 

1242
01:08:25,779 --> 01:08:27,779
Wait, what is going on? 
Burning buildings. 

1243
01:08:27,779 --> 01:08:30,700
But it looks like fake Toshi. 
Absolutely amazing. 

1244
01:08:30,700 --> 01:08:32,979
Good stuff, Greg. 
ZAJ, this is what we mean by 

1245
01:08:32,979 --> 01:08:34,740
mimetic warfare. 
OK, next one. 

1246
01:08:35,540 --> 01:08:40,040
Not that Elon at Eggplant under 
score Elon and he goes me. 

1247
01:08:40,120 --> 01:08:43,560
Why am I so broke all the time? 
Everyone stop buying Bitcoin all

1248
01:08:43,560 --> 01:08:46,120
the time, then me. 
No, not that. 

1249
01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:47,960
Something else. 
There's another reason why I'm 

1250
01:08:47,960 --> 01:08:50,200
broke and it's not because I 
constantly buy Bitcoin. 

1251
01:08:50,200 --> 01:08:51,760
What's the reason that we're 
broke? 

1252
01:08:51,760 --> 01:08:57,180
HM what is wrong with the money?
Maybe it's the money stupid. 

1253
01:08:57,180 --> 01:08:59,220
Maybe they're printing obscenes 
amount of money. 

1254
01:08:59,220 --> 01:09:01,260
But I do buy a lot of Bitcoin 
and this is probably why I'm 

1255
01:09:01,260 --> 01:09:03,819
broke. 
Anyways, this next meme is by at

1256
01:09:03,819 --> 01:09:06,180
low Jack Bitcoin and goes 
Bitcoin is inevitable. 

1257
01:09:06,180 --> 01:09:10,260
Flames, flames, and we got a 
shadowy super coder that's not a

1258
01:09:10,260 --> 01:09:11,819
Bitcoin. 
And he goes, every 

1259
01:09:11,819 --> 01:09:14,420
cryptocurrency that was created 
before Bitcoin failed, and 

1260
01:09:14,420 --> 01:09:17,100
Bitcoin will fail as well. 
And we got the Chad Bitcoin that

1261
01:09:17,100 --> 01:09:20,260
goes E cash, B money. 
Bitcoin and hash cash failed 

1262
01:09:20,260 --> 01:09:21,859
because they were not 
decentralized. 

1263
01:09:21,859 --> 01:09:24,740
Bitcoin is inevitable. 
Bitcoin is literally 

1264
01:09:24,740 --> 01:09:26,700
decentralized money in the 
world. 

1265
01:09:27,220 --> 01:09:29,100
No one controls it. 
That's why we're telling you to 

1266
01:09:29,100 --> 01:09:33,790
run nodes, so that you can help 
decentralize the network. 

1267
01:09:33,790 --> 01:09:35,550
But just running a node doesn't 
mean anything. 

1268
01:09:35,550 --> 01:09:38,830
You need to run a node and then 
verify your transactions with 

1269
01:09:38,830 --> 01:09:40,830
that node. 
It needs to have economic weight

1270
01:09:40,830 --> 01:09:43,830
behind it. 
Just running a node means 

1271
01:09:43,830 --> 01:09:46,510
nothing. 
Don't just spin up a node 

1272
01:09:46,830 --> 01:09:49,350
because it's cool. 
You need to spin up a node and 

1273
01:09:49,550 --> 01:09:52,910
then connect it to your wallets 
and verify your transactions. 

1274
01:09:52,950 --> 01:09:55,950
Anyways, this next meme is by 
the BTC therapist and he goes, 

1275
01:09:55,950 --> 01:09:59,230
sometimes the truth hurts and we
got that picture of the like 

1276
01:09:59,230 --> 01:10:03,470
sailor girl and she's holding up
a sign and it goes, the banks 

1277
01:10:03,470 --> 01:10:05,030
don't have your money and it's 
got a Bitcoin. 

1278
01:10:05,030 --> 01:10:08,910
Lego guys, it's it's so simple. 
The banks literally don't have 

1279
01:10:08,910 --> 01:10:11,510
your money. 
Fractional reserve banking and 

1280
01:10:11,510 --> 01:10:15,150
they dropped the limit in 2020. 
Like it used to be 10%. 

1281
01:10:15,150 --> 01:10:16,430
They only hold 10% of your 
money. 

1282
01:10:16,430 --> 01:10:18,950
Now it's literally zero. 
They don't have your money. 

1283
01:10:18,950 --> 01:10:20,910
Like there's literally no money 
in banks. 

1284
01:10:20,950 --> 01:10:24,270
They lend it all out and you 
expect your money to be there. 

1285
01:10:24,390 --> 01:10:26,350
When shit hits the fan guys 
become your own. 

1286
01:10:26,350 --> 01:10:30,930
Banks opt out of this stuff. 
Hold Bitcoin, hold hard asses. 

1287
01:10:30,930 --> 01:10:32,170
Hold the best money in the 
world. 

1288
01:10:32,170 --> 01:10:34,050
It is Bitcoin. 
We're in a digital world. 

1289
01:10:34,690 --> 01:10:37,210
You want some digital money for 
the digital age. 

1290
01:10:37,210 --> 01:10:42,530
Anyways, next meme is my at 21 
JCLP and he's been killing it. 

1291
01:10:43,490 --> 01:10:46,890
And I saw this first from Sailor
and it was just fine Bitcoin. 

1292
01:10:46,890 --> 01:10:52,170
And then I noticed that our boy 
21 JCLP is the one that made it.

1293
01:10:52,170 --> 01:10:57,540
So it's like a crazy a I picture
and it's an eye, but it's got 

1294
01:10:57,540 --> 01:11:00,220
the Bitcoin logo in the eye and 
I don't know, it's got all kinds

1295
01:11:00,220 --> 01:11:03,260
of crazy stuff out here. 
Maybe like cipher punk stuff, 

1296
01:11:03,260 --> 01:11:05,540
samurai warrior coats. 
I don't even know what it is, 

1297
01:11:05,540 --> 01:11:07,980
but super tight. 
Great job. 

1298
01:11:08,780 --> 01:11:11,140
All right, this next one is, I 
don't even think this guy's 

1299
01:11:11,140 --> 01:11:14,020
necessarily a Bitcoiner. 
Now he's a Bitcoiner. 

1300
01:11:14,020 --> 01:11:18,260
Cool small account. 
Paolo Bagu at the real Paolo 

1301
01:11:18,260 --> 01:11:23,090
Bagu and he is dropped a meme on
Max Kaiser's tweet and Max 

1302
01:11:23,090 --> 01:11:25,770
Kaiser goes let's not forget who
finances the primary cause of 

1303
01:11:25,810 --> 01:11:28,090
all the misery. 
Central banks, including the 

1304
01:11:28,090 --> 01:11:30,490
IMS. Bitcoin fixes this, but 
that's not what I wanted to put 

1305
01:11:30,490 --> 01:11:32,770
on. 
It's just a classic Ron Paul and

1306
01:11:32,770 --> 01:11:34,770
we got a picture of Ron Paul 
here with a quote. 

1307
01:11:35,290 --> 01:11:39,650
And I think it is very fitting 
that we end the meme review on 

1308
01:11:39,650 --> 01:11:42,170
today's show, considering all 
the crazy stuff happening in the

1309
01:11:42,170 --> 01:11:44,180
world. 
It's a Ron Paul quote that says 

1310
01:11:44,180 --> 01:11:47,660
it is no coincidence that the 
century of Total War coincided 

1311
01:11:47,660 --> 01:11:49,540
with the century of central 
bacon. 

1312
01:11:51,260 --> 01:11:53,820
Guys, there is no coincidence. 
What do you always say, Nico? 

1313
01:11:53,820 --> 01:11:55,900
There's no coincidence. 
There's no accidents or 

1314
01:11:55,940 --> 01:11:57,900
coincidence. 
There's no conspiracies. 

1315
01:11:57,900 --> 01:11:59,740
But there's. 
No, Yes, exactly. 

1316
01:12:01,300 --> 01:12:04,140
We live in some crazy times. 
Opt out of this madness. 

1317
01:12:04,140 --> 01:12:05,820
Saving Bitcoin. 
Protect yourself. 

1318
01:12:06,140 --> 01:12:08,790
This is what it's about, guys. 
Don't You don't need to do 

1319
01:12:08,790 --> 01:12:11,790
Bitcoin to be altruistic. 
Like some Bitcoin is like just 

1320
01:12:11,790 --> 01:12:14,270
say Bitcoin to protect yourself.
It's OK guys. 

1321
01:12:14,430 --> 01:12:16,150
We are going through crazy 
times. 

1322
01:12:16,310 --> 01:12:19,150
You need to have some savings. 
You need to have some money 

1323
01:12:19,150 --> 01:12:21,950
outside the system. 
Because when shit hits the fan, 

1324
01:12:22,150 --> 01:12:23,870
we already know where it is 
headed. 

1325
01:12:23,990 --> 01:12:26,350
The banks don't have your money,
guys. 

1326
01:12:27,670 --> 01:12:28,910
All right. 
Anyways, drive your meme review 

1327
01:12:28,910 --> 01:12:32,190
score on the other side of Nico 
and we will cover hours live. 

1328
01:12:32,190 --> 01:12:35,270
My meme review score again. 
I'm in my dad's office right 

1329
01:12:35,270 --> 01:12:37,350
now. 
Some good score. 

1330
01:12:37,750 --> 01:12:39,510
Yeah, he's got all kinds of 
crazy stuff. 

1331
01:12:39,510 --> 01:12:44,990
He's got this. 
I think it's a a railroad spike 

1332
01:12:45,790 --> 01:12:47,830
that was used on the railroad. 
I think it's steel. 

1333
01:12:47,830 --> 01:12:49,750
It looks old. 
It's like even cracked. 

1334
01:12:49,750 --> 01:12:51,110
Like actually used. 
Damn. 

1335
01:12:52,590 --> 01:12:55,190
Railroad Spike. 
Damn, that's a. 

1336
01:12:55,230 --> 01:12:56,830
Good score anyways. 
And data. 

1337
01:12:56,830 --> 01:13:01,590
What would you give those memes 
and and eight out of 10? 

1338
01:13:02,710 --> 01:13:05,550
OK. 
OK, let's go Classic score I. 

1339
01:13:05,550 --> 01:13:06,710
Like it? 
I like it. 

1340
01:13:07,230 --> 01:13:15,110
OK, I'm going to give it this 3D
printed by the F and dip. 

1341
01:13:15,470 --> 01:13:17,190
That that's going to be my 
score. 

1342
01:13:17,710 --> 01:13:19,750
Classic score to start Monday 
off. 

1343
01:13:20,190 --> 01:13:22,790
Honestly, Nico, I thought you 
were going to pull out something

1344
01:13:22,790 --> 01:13:25,870
that something else 3D printed, 
but hey, that's neither here nor

1345
01:13:25,870 --> 01:13:27,110
there. 
That's not here nor there. 

1346
01:13:28,830 --> 01:13:30,830
So that. 
That's going to be my score. 

1347
01:13:30,830 --> 01:13:34,030
That's going to be my score. 
All right everybody, please drop

Nice to meet you in LA Homie. 
It was really, really nice to 

1376
01:15:06,600 --> 01:15:09,200
meet you Brother Chain though. 
That gold chain though? 

1377
01:15:09,240 --> 01:15:12,000
Gold chains off fleek, bro. 
Wish I had more. 

1378
01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:14,080
Time dude. 
I was running around like crazy.

1379
01:15:14,080 --> 01:15:17,280
But to everybody who I saw in 
Los Angeles, love you guys. 

1380

Thank you so much for tuning in 
and making the. 

1381
01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:22,480
You know, possible meme scored 
the new Bitcoin boy band that 

1382
01:15:22,480 --> 01:15:24,160
just came out out of Pacific 
Bitcoin. 

1383
01:15:24,160 --> 01:15:27,520
The Tri tips. 
I went Ki went KPS. 

1384
01:15:27,520 --> 01:15:29,160
They did touch the tips.
