00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:07,080
Good morning. 
Good morning, GMGM 

2
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:38,800
August 5th, 2020 Four. 
But I don't have it in me bro. 

3
00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:42,920
What's up y'all? 
How you doing Tyler?

00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,400

6
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:54,000
How you guys doing fuck. 
Trainers are born for days like 

7
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,400
today, my friend. 
I am not a traitor. 

8
00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:04,120
Well, appreciate your comedic 
relief at at least. 

9
00:01:04,519 --> 00:01:07,080
Yeah, I think we, we, we all 
need a little bit of that. 

10
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:08,840
Yeah. 
I mean, it's, it's Black Monday,

11
00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:10,040
right? 
It's kind of Black Sunday. 

12
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:12,320
Black. 
It's been black fucking every 

13
00:01:12,320 --> 00:01:16,600
day bro. 
This is selling May go away. 

14
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:22,160
It's like it's smelling in 
January, February, March, April,

15
00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:24,480
May, June, July and you sell in 
August. 

16
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,200
I swear to God, if you guys do 
sell that September on my 

17
00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:33,080
birthday month, June, I'm done. 
Jesus Christ, Black Monday, 

18
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:38,720
black Tuesday, Black Wednesday, 
black till this shit. 

19
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:42,440
Definitely what a day anyways, 
Oh my Lord. 

20
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,160
Well, we're back. 
We're we're definitely here. 

21
00:01:44,160 --> 00:01:47,600
You know what at least I get to 
I get to I, I get to feel this 

22
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,760
way in my home. 
I get to feel this way my home. 

23
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:56,000
Oh look I open the timeline says
wizard is calling for recession 

24
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,760
being cancelled so I guess 
wizard is going to save us 

25
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,520
anyways. 
It's just another drop in the 

26
00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:03,160
water y'all. 
We've seen this before. 

27
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,360
We went through 11 weekly red 
candles on the morning show 

28
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,560
before. 
We've been through this shit 

29
00:02:08,759 --> 00:02:11,520
come on baby this year. 
What Mando said when we started,

30
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,920
she said traders were born for 
days like this with Guess what? 

31
00:02:14,920 --> 00:02:18,840
For all you non traders out 
there like me, you know Mama 

32
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,680
ain't raised no bitch. 
All right, so we got this, OK? 

33
00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,280
It's just another drop in the 
water. 

34
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:26,080
They're going to cut the rates. 
And in the In the words of the 

35
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:31,000
wise Keith Grossman just texting
me, he said grow a sack. 

36
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:34,280
Swear to God. 
Yeah, he said when going through

37
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:36,200
hell, keep going. 
I remember last time he told me 

38
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:39,520
that we went on to build one of 
the most fire media brands in 

39
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,520
space. 
So it is what the fuck it is 

40
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,160
today on the show today, today 
daily market report. 

41
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,640
Mando, please, we will need you 
today to give us the best market

42
00:02:47,640 --> 00:02:51,280
report you've given in your 
entire career as a Twitter 

43
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:55,840
Space's host. 
I mean, dude, we've hosted like 

44
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,360
fucking 900 of these at this 
stage. 

45
00:02:57,480 --> 00:02:59,600
This is already from our episode
172, bro. 

46
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,800
So, so we, we've hosted at least
like a hundred of these with 

47
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:05,800
Tyler alone. 
So we, we're deep, we're deep. 

48
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:10,000
And then Tyler's top 100. 
I mean, if we even get there, I 

49
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,360
mean Tyler's top 100. 
I don't even want to know. 

50
00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:16,400
I don't even want to hear it. 
I don't want to hear it today, 

51
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,240
bro. 
I, I have all charts closed on 

52
00:03:18,240 --> 00:03:20,400
my computer. 
I have not a single meme coin, 

53
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:24,440
not a single major. 
I don't have AI have one tab 

54
00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,800
open on my screen right now. 
It's X and and the stream yard. 

55
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,520
I guess I'll find out right now 
what my meme coins are at 

56
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:36,840
Tyler's at Tyler's bottom 100, 
Tyler's book on Tyler's bottom 

57
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:42,240
100 today, and then a new weekly
sponsored segment on Mondays. 

58
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,200
We'll be talking about Arbitrum,
Arbitrum's weekly update. 

59
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,440
So I don't know what we'll call 
it yet. 

60
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,560
We'll figure it out. 
You know, ours weekly update. 

61
00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,200
What a day to start. 
Sorry y'all. 

62
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,600
What a day to start a weekly 
update on the Arbitrum 

63
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,960
ecosystem. 
Oh my God, dude. 

64
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:02,000
I, I, I think I'm laughing out 
of hysteria at this day. 

65
00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:04,680
I had a great sleep. 
I woke up to this. 

66
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,640
My my urine gave me 92% score on
my sleeve. 

67
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:09,720
It was the best score I've had 
since I bought the fucking 

68
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,400
right. 
Well, I thought it was wonderful

69
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:16,320
as well King, until it wasn't. 
But anyways, Mando, you know I'm

70
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,640
giving enough to you. 
I already I already need a 

71
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:24,400
break. 
Who is the man? 

72
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,120
Michael? 
Daddy of the land. 

73
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:31,720
Can you dig it? 
Yeah. 

74
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:35,520
GM, everyone. 
So pretty horrific, I would say 

75
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:40,520
all around when we went, when we
closed up on Friday, Friday had 

76
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,840
been not the best week for 
crypto, but it certainly wasn't 

77
00:04:43,840 --> 00:04:45,280
like this. 
Bitcoin was hanging out around 

78
00:04:45,280 --> 00:04:48,440
62 K. 
Those are the days Solana was 

79
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:54,280
trading at about 1:55, I think 
150 to 160 and ETH was was above

80
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:59,120
3000 like 3100 area. 
I think it it had been a little 

81
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:03,800
bit surprising that week just 
how badly I think crypto have 

82
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,400
been trading. 
We'd had a bit of a sell off in 

83
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:09,320
the in the NASDAQ, but it 
definitely felt like there are a

84
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:14,160
few things coming together over 
the weekend things just got even

85
00:05:14,160 --> 00:05:18,920
worse and particularly this 
morning now there's a few things

86
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:20,680
going on and I'll just rattle 
through them because it's 

87
00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:22,160
difficult to work out which is 
the worst. 

88
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,240
The first one has been this yen 
carry trade, which has just been

89
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,520
the move in dollar yen. 
So dollar yen is basically 

90
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:36,680
reversed all of its 2024 losses 
in the space of about a week or 

91
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:39,680
less. 
And basically what that trade 

92
00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:44,040
is, just to really simplify it 
is it's very cheap to borrow 

93
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,200
assets or it was very cheap to 
borrow assets in yen. 

94
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,400
It was actually 0% interest 
rates over there. 

95
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,800
So a lot of people did globally,
they would borrow yen, they 

96
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,520
would borrow in yen and then 
they buy risky assets. 

97
00:05:56,520 --> 00:06:00,320
So they buy tech stocks, they 
might buy Bitcoin, they might 

98
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:05,560
buy, they might buy U.S. 
Treasuries, which are even 5%. 

99
00:06:06,840 --> 00:06:10,680
And your only risk there is the 
movement in dollar yen, right? 

100
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,280
Because you, there's no, you're 
paying 0% interest often on, on 

101
00:06:14,280 --> 00:06:17,160
the, on the loan. 
So as long as dollar yen doesn't

102
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:22,080
move more than let's say 5% for 
for Treasuries or let's say tech

103
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:27,720
stocks are up 15% this year or 
Bitcoin, which is up 50% or even

104
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:31,840
more, you are going to be fine. 
Now what actually happened is it

105
00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:34,960
moved 15% in about 3-3 sessions,
4 sessions. 

106
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:41,800
And a bunch of people who were 
borrowing in yen had to hit the 

107
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,440
eject button. 
And this has been a multi year 

108
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:45,480
trade. 
This is not like something 

109
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,280
that's just been going on. 
This has been going on for a 

110
00:06:47,280 --> 00:06:49,240
long time. 
Sometimes it's hedged, but even 

111
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,000
the cost of those hedges blew 
out as well. 

112
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,160
So you had a big unwinding and 
that happened a little bit on 

113
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,680
Friday. 
The VIX hit 30 on Friday, which 

114
00:06:57,680 --> 00:07:00,720
everyone was like, wow, that's, 
that's a big move having been 

115
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:05,520
low for a long time. 
And then as soon as Japanese 

116
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:13,000
stocks opened on on on Monday, 
they went down 12%. 

117
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:18,960
So the biggest single move in 
many different Asian markets for

118
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:21,000
decades. 
I think for since Taiwan, it was

119
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:26,160
like 57 years, biggest two day 
move in Japanese stocks since 

120
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:31,680
1980s very, very big move. 
And people freaked out in crypto

121
00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:33,560
as well. 
They have been freaking out for 

122
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:37,760
a little bit, but that really 
caused us to go from 60K to 50K 

123
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:39,440
pretty quickly. 
I was actually asleep. 

124
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:43,120
I, I woke up to that. 
But that is the idea that people

125
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:48,240
suddenly realizing they have to 
pay back these, these yen and 

126
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:52,880
also the yen moved as well. 
So payback the yen assets and 

127
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,360
freaking out having to exit 
them. 

128
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:58,320
So you had like a global risk 
off in all markets because this 

129
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,840
affected this wasn't just in 
crypto, this affected all risk 

130
00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,920
assets. 
The NASDAQ opened futures opened

131
00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,400
down 6%. 
It just felt like it was a 

132
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:10,840
really ugly day and and that 
kind of continued. 

133
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,240
Now, on top of that, there are a
few other things going on. 

134
00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:17,560
On the weekend. 
You had Trump going behind 

135
00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,760
Kamala. 
Now Kamala was ahead in some of 

136
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:24,200
the some more of the polls, 
notably Nate Silver, which made 

137
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:28,680
people feel very, very worried. 
You had reports that Iran was 

138
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,720
going to attack Israel in the 
next 24 hours. 

139
00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:32,840
They've been thought that it 
happened. 

140
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:34,960
It could happen on the weekend, 
but now it's going to happen 

141
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:38,600
before Wednesday seemingly. 
So people very, very uncertain 

142
00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:45,040
about that. 
You had you had different firms 

143
00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,440
in crypto liquidating. 
So the most notable one would be

144
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,000
Jump. 
Jump has been liquidating for a 

145
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:51,920
while now. 
This has not been something that

146
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,440
it just really hit headlines 
because they start to liquidate 

147
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,880
big, big clips of ETH over the 
weekend. 

148
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:02,240
So they liquidated around 500 
million plus of ETH in just a 

149
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:03,760
few days. 
And this is happening on a 

150
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,720
Sunday while all of this is 
happening as well. 

151
00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:08,360
So you get these like really 
horrific moves. 

152
00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,880
This is one of the things about 
crypto is that as it becomes 

153
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:16,400
more of a macro thing, it is the
one thing to trade on a weekend.

154
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:20,000
And this was a real culmination 
of a bunch of different people 

155
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,840
freaking out on the weekend. 
So a bunch of people getting 

156
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:26,840
liquidated, people getting 
worried about, you know, macro 

157
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:30,160
politics. 
Then you had specifically to 

158
00:09:30,160 --> 00:09:35,320
crypto some people liquidating. 
And I've heard anecdotally there

159
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:36,280
were there were a couple of 
others. 

160
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:39,960
So yeah, it just, it just seemed
to all come together at a pretty

161
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:43,800
horrific time this morning. 
We were selling off before the 

162
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,720
NASDAQ opened and then we've 
seemingly bounced pretty 

163
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:49,320
aggressively on that open. 
So Bitcoin's back to 53 K. 

164
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:53,360
Let's go back theorem. 
Theorem is back to 2400. 

165
00:09:53,520 --> 00:09:58,240
Solana is back to 127. 
So about 10% rise across the 

166
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,000
board in risk assets since over 
the last half an hour. 

167
00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,560
Really, it had been looking 
pretty dark before that. 

168
00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:07,320
Yeah. 
I I don't really know what to 

169
00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:08,240
say. 
That was one of the biggest 

170
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:12,200
liquidation days I've seen one 
of the like, even I look back at

171
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:16,520
that, that, you know, that nine 
week candle and ETH, this was 

172
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:20,200
this was way worse than that. 
As in not in total move, but 

173
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,320
like, this was none of the 
candles even came close to what 

174
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:27,200
we saw over the last week. 
ETH erased all of its 2024 

175
00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:31,800
gains, all of its 2024 gains. 
ETH erased. 

176
00:10:33,680 --> 00:10:37,880
Yeah, proper movie we. 
Went to 19. 

177
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:40,160
I must have been. 
It was like early your morning 

178
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,480
then I was. 
I'm up at 7:00 AM and that's 

179
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,560
when it was all her hitting, so 
I think Solana. 

180
00:10:46,560 --> 00:10:51,280
Had texted me at 2:30 in the 
morning saying I the 1st I I the

181
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:55,080
first thing I see this morning 
is Mando a text from Mando. 

182
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:59,760
Hold on let me read it to you 
guys at two at 2:46 AM. 

183
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,240
How hope you guys are all OK. 
This is a crazy move. 

184
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:09,400
I wake up to this shit at 6:55 
AM because I'm jet lagged and I 

185
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,720
and you know what I do? 
I pray not a religious man and I

186
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,800
open quick market cap and then I
was stuck in bed for an hour. 

187
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:22,200
I was just like. 
I got, I got up and out me and, 

188
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,880
you know, we had an emergency 
meeting about what we should do,

189
00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:27,600
which we made some good calls 
on. 

190
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:32,400
And yeah, look, I think it's, it
was just a crazy, yeah. 

191
00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:34,440
When you see a move out in the 
VIX, the VIX is a really 

192
00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,240
important thing to to pay 
attention to because the VIX 

193
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,600
doesn't really. 
Because everyone talks about VIX

194
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,640
this, VIX that, but I think 
99.9% of us don't know what it 

195
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:45,160
is, including myself like. 
Just completely simplify it. 

196
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:51,240
VIX equals volatility. 
So the idea that the VIX blowing

197
00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:53,920
out to 30 and it's, it's also 
implied volatility. 

198
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,320
So it basically indicates that 
everyone thinks the market's 

199
00:11:57,320 --> 00:12:01,560
going to go a lot lower. 
Normally it doesn't hit sixty 

200
00:12:01,560 --> 00:12:06,480
that often. 
It hit 63 or 65. 

201
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:07,960
Yeah, pre market. 
I've. 

202
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:12,920
I only remember Vicks hitting 
that level in the weeks around 

203
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:15,200
COVID. 
Like it would hit that on 

204
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:17,720
multiple days. 
I remember, I remember sitting 

205
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:22,400
in an airport hangar near this 
is how all the banks were set 

206
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:24,000
up. 
So you'd like you'd sit during 

207
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,360
that period. 
Like they put you to like 

208
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,200
disaster recovery during COVID. 
So I was like in an airport 

209
00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:31,080
hanging near Heathrow Airport 
and just seeing the VIX hit that

210
00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:32,840
level. 
It opened like that. 

211
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,560
This just didn't feel that bad 
compared to this. 

212
00:12:35,560 --> 00:12:38,040
This felt as though a lot of 
people offside rather than 

213
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:39,840
anything specific. 
COVID, right? 

214
00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:42,240
COVID was COVID, people thought 
the world was going to end. 

215
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:47,600
If you track back to what caused
this job, the jobs missed BY60K 

216
00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:52,600
jobs, there's an expectation 
OF115K jobs and it hit 175 S. 

217
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:55,600
It was the expectation of 175. 
It hit 115 K. 

218
00:12:55,960 --> 00:13:02,680
So we missed jobs by 60K on NFPS
and they didn't cut rates by 1/4

219
00:13:02,680 --> 00:13:07,320
point and Vicks hits 65. 
That is not COVID. 

220
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,960
So for me this was nothing like 
that in terms of how horrific it

221
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:13,040
was. 
It just tells you how big people

222
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:17,400
in this trade and that the 
unwind. 

223
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,400
What's interestingly is that 
crypto. 

224
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,880
I wouldn't have all the asset 
classes in the world. 

225
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,320
Again, I would not have picked 
crypto. 

226
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,840
I don't think many people are 
borrowing in the end to buy 

227
00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,760
Bitcoin. 
It's been very, very popular to 

228
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:34,760
borrow in yen to buy real estate
assets to buy anything with 

229
00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:37,400
risk, but not really crypto. 
It's not like a big you can't 

230
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,760
even have like Japanese banks 
aren't really lending to a lot 

231
00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:41,680
of crypto people. 
Anywhere. 

232
00:13:41,680 --> 00:13:43,160
That's why I don't understand 
what's going on now. 

233
00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,000
Like I see all this stuff about 
Japan and as someone who's not 

234
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,520
in finance nor I have a 
background in finance, I'm just 

235
00:13:48,520 --> 00:13:51,240
an enjoyer of the space. 
Why the fuck does Japan have so 

236
00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:52,840
much to do with my bags? 
Like what's the? 

237
00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,200
What's the? 
Yeah, I've read conspiracies 

238
00:13:56,200 --> 00:13:59,840
that like some someone attached 
to Jump was perhaps a was 

239
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:02,800
affiliated to this as well. 
But to be honest, all this tells

240
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:06,200
me is that crypto, just because 
it's the only thing that's open 

241
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,000
on a weekend, people just hammer
it. 

242
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:12,400
Like when they know they're 
about to get hammered on tech 

243
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,200
stocks or they know they're 
going about to get hammered on 

244
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:18,520
their other risk asset, which 
they borrowed in yen, which is a

245
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,960
very popular trade. 
Like in broader, broader trad 

246
00:14:21,960 --> 00:14:25,080
FI, they just go in and they 
just hammer crypto. 

247
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:29,240
So it's something that makes me 
a bit scared about with crypto 

248
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,360
is that whenever anything 
happens over a weekend period, 

249
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:35,280
it's like, oh, we're going to 
drop 30%, we're going to drop 

250
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,840
20%. 
Like the last time Iran 

251
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:41,000
threatened Israel and then sent 
those send those drones, we 

252
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:44,280
dropped 20%. 
It was like what is going on 

253
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,480
here? 
So I think people use the 

254
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:52,960
weekend hedge is just is crypto 
now and you've seen these 

255
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:57,160
horrific, horrific move, but it 
doesn't feel crypto specific. 

256
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:03,160
It just reveals the hand that 
crypto is a is the whipping boy 

257
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:05,160
of global macro when it wants to
be. 

258
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,160
They will just hammer it if they
need to hedge. 

259
00:15:08,760 --> 00:15:11,880
I also think that this sort of a
sell off is the sort of sell off

260
00:15:11,880 --> 00:15:14,960
that isn't V shaped in terms of 
recovery. 

261
00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:19,120
The crypto like if I'm sitting 
there and and ether's just a 

262
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,400
raised all of it's yearly again,
I know it has a bit of a balance

263
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,000
just now, like people will 
leave. 

264
00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:27,200
I think this is this is like 
this is a proper and even the 

265
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,120
memes, right? 
People were were safe in memes 

266
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,480
for a while. 
Like memes are down 50%. 

267
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:35,880
Memes are down 50% in like 2 
weeks. 

268
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:40,080
Mog was trading at 2.3. 
Right now it's at 1:00. 

269
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,560
That's enough. 
Pepe was trading at 1.2 now it's

270
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:49,520
at nought .6 like with with was 
at 2.5 now I was at 11.3. 

271
00:15:49,520 --> 00:15:55,520
Sorry, like these are these are.
Bro last Monday last Monday 

272
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:59,680
Solano was at 192. 
Yeah, I feel like Solano is the 

273
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:00,880
first thing that people will buy
back. 

274
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,640
I feel as though this is going 
to lead to a drop off in wallets

275
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:06,880
throughout the board. 
Like why, if I'm sitting there 

276
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:10,080
and I've been told, you know, 
ether is a great asset, I'm not 

277
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:13,280
not against ether like that. 
You can just buy and hold majors

278
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,920
and you can have exposure crypto
and then you see stuff like 

279
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,160
this. 
You're just like, what is going 

280
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:18,880
on? 
Why do we even? 

281
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,080
Own this I just. 
Own Tesla. 

282
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:24,040
Why don't I just don't, you 
know, like I think a lot of 

283
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:28,680
tourist style people will just 
be like, what's the point? 

284
00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,160
You're right. 
I I have a question. 

285
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:37,480
I have a question, but yeah, 
yeah, you're right. 

286
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,120
I have a follow up question up, 
a follow up question on that. 

287
00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:41,760
But Tyler, how you feeling this 
morning? 

288
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:42,960
What? 
What's the rate here? 

289
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:48,840
I'm hanging in there. 
I, I remember, you know, the, 

290
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,560
the COVID crash in 2021, 
watching families network drop 

291
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:56,120
by what, like 5075% in a, in a 
matter of days and just being 

292
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,800
like, well, guess we're going to
keep going to work every day. 

293
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:03,040
And I guess that that's kind of 
I am like like right now, like 

294
00:17:03,640 --> 00:17:06,599
it's not going to retire next 
month like that, that type of 

295
00:17:06,599 --> 00:17:08,240
thing. 
You know, Mando's brought up 

296
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,839
some sobering points. 
And like I had this idea of AV 

297
00:17:11,839 --> 00:17:15,079
shape recovery perhaps more on 
the the stock side just because 

298
00:17:15,079 --> 00:17:16,240
of like this. 
This feels like such like a 

299
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:20,240
technical sell off versus like a
true like fundamental like we 

300
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:22,119
talked about this on Friday. 
Like it doesn't feel like the 

301
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:26,760
economy is like in this terrible
state right now and like this 

302
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:28,880
combination of all these 
different things that happened 

303
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,640
at at the at the same time, it 
is driving everything down. 

304
00:17:33,360 --> 00:17:36,640
But on the crypto side, and I 
have to give Darren, Darren LX 

305
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,040
credit. 
I mean, he kind of called this 

306
00:17:38,360 --> 00:17:40,160
like a month or so, maybe two 
months back. 

307
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,280
He's basically said everyone 
who's been buying has already 

308
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,200
bought. 
So so who is I? 

309
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:48,120
And it feels like a lot of like 
a lot of the CT, like myself 

310
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:51,240
included, like we've been kind 
of all in like this cycle. 

311
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,760
We've been. 
And so now it raises the 

312
00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,080
question of like who is going to
buy everything back up? 

313
00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:01,800
So I, I want to say it's going 
to be V shaped, but I, I don't 

314
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:04,760
like, I don't have the, the, the
backing for how that's going to 

315
00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,160
work. 
I think there's some macro 

316
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:08,800
bullish things to come from 
majors. 

317
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:12,440
You know, the, the I'll give 
some hope in them out there that

318
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,880
this morning, as I like to do. 
So we saw like the Morgan 

319
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,000
Stanley thing on Friday that 
Morgan Stanley finally got the 

320
00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:18,960
green light to start pitching 
the Bitcoin ETS. 

321
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:25,600
I think for folks who, who 
aren't in CT, who don't show up 

322
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:29,040
to this space every day and see 
the panic on the timeline and 

323
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:31,160
who've been wanting to get 
exposure to Bitcoin, they're, 

324
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:32,880
they're probably excited for 
this dip. 

325
00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,600
I I think right like they they 
have a cheaper entry than they 

326
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:39,000
did. 
Yeah, what's up? 

327
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,440
My point in this is just that I 
remember the last time we've had

328
00:18:42,440 --> 00:18:48,560
these sort of huge moves like 
off the FTXFTX when FTX hit ETH 

329
00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:52,280
went from 1800 to 1000. 
Is that right? 

330
00:18:54,600 --> 00:18:56,560
Something like that. 
What is it went down? 

331
00:18:56,600 --> 00:19:00,360
About 40%, I think that's not 
dissimilar to this move. 

332
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:04,840
Like this is Ethan just went 
down 40%. 

333
00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:09,080
And what you tend to see is like
big, awesomely thick 

334
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:10,520
liquidations. 
Takes a little bit of time. 

335
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:13,440
Takes a little bit of time. 
You know, it's like, it's like 

336
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,880
jaws, Are you ready to get back 
in the water? 

337
00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:20,800
I think majors are the ones that
probably recover the best, but I

338
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:25,400
think if I'm honest, the idea of
us going back to like 70K or 60 

339
00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:30,040
Ki think we have to put in my 
eyes is probably now a post 

340
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,320
election. 
And that's fine. 

341
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:33,920
I'm just saying I think this 
isn't. 

342
00:19:34,360 --> 00:19:36,360
That's a. 
That is a proper Wick. 

343
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:39,520
Like it was 20% dip on Bitcoin 
on the ETF. 

344
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:46,720
Yeah, well, Bitcoin was at 70K 
on Monday, right? 

345
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,840
It went down 30. 
It went down 30% from Monday, 

346
00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:55,240
Monday to Monday. 
Salon was at 193 that went down 

347
00:19:55,760 --> 00:20:05,120
45% roughly and ETH was at 3400 
and now it's it hit 2200. 

348
00:20:05,120 --> 00:20:07,400
So again around the same. 
So 45%. 

349
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:12,600
So huge moves. 
And I think the other thing is 

350
00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,600
that it it the final, the thing 
that everyone was kind of in as 

351
00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:21,240
their beta play, which was memes
has just been eviscerated, 

352
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:23,560
right? 
Like not like they could bounce 

353
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:27,360
here. 
But this morning, what's the 

354
00:20:27,360 --> 00:20:32,960
first thing you want to buy? 
For me it was Solana and and and

355
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:34,400
bit. 
Maybe just even bitcoins, 

356
00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:36,480
Bitcoin. 
Probably Bitcoin, right? 

357
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,240
I, I think it's going to take a 
little bit of time for people 

358
00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:43,040
to, to, to get back into like, I
don't want to see a shield 

359
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:44,240
thread on the timeline right 
now. 

360
00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:44,640
You know what? 
I. 

361
00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:47,280
Mean people shilling like low 
cap meme coins. 

362
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:49,960
I saw. 
I saw a low cap meme coin shield

363
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,680
this morning. 
I was like, come on, give it a 

364
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:55,680
day. 
Yeah, this is a question for you

365
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,280
and then I have a follow up for 
you man, though, boys, where, 

366
00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,160
where, where? 
Where are we? 

367
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:06,360
Where are we? 
Where are we on here? 

368
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:08,160
Depression. 
Disbelief. 

369
00:21:10,120 --> 00:21:12,680
So I, I, I pulled this up 
yesterday actually to, to try to

370
00:21:12,680 --> 00:21:17,560
answer this question. 
I mean, still, if you're in the 

371
00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,560
Kobe mindset, like the cycle 
hasn't started, Disbelief. 

372
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:22,440
I was going to be my follow up. 
Question. 

373
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,040
Actually, the big dip in 
disbelief. 

374
00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:27,760
Is this this one? 
Is this it this this one here? 

375
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:29,160
Amanda, what do you think? 
What do you think? 

376
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,120
Where where we're at and what do
you think of the Kobe's point 

377
00:21:31,120 --> 00:21:33,040
that's saying that this is very 
similar to 2019? 

378
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:37,240
I think Quince Bernsky had a 
early tweet last year on the 

379
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:41,280
last year saying that 2024 is 
going to look like 20-19 with a 

380
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,960
sharp move up on Bitcoin going 
up 3-4 X and the cycle will 

381
00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:46,360
start after that. 
What do you think? 

382
00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,080
Look, if this is if this is a 
crypto cycle, it's been one of 

383
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:53,560
the worst of all, but it's been 
the worst one by far. 

384
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:57,480
If this is this is your cycle, 
like look at year to date on 

385
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:01,520
coins, but every single coin is 
either at cycle lows or at year 

386
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:05,480
as at all time lows, right? 
There's there's a very few 

387
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:10,080
number of coins which are not 
are not don't fit that bill 

388
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:19,240
apart from Tom Solana ETH. 
Well, Ethan cycle lows Bitcoin 

389
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:21,560
and and a few of the memes, 
right? 

390
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:26,120
It's it's been horrific in the 
top 100. 

391
00:22:26,120 --> 00:22:28,120
That is not what a normal cycle 
looks like. 

392
00:22:28,120 --> 00:22:33,560
So I don't know if this means 
you can pick a very rosy picture

393
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:38,520
for 2025, right. 
Trump gets in, we Bitcoin I 

394
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:40,240
think then can go really quite 
high. 

395
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:43,440
And I think Solana and Ethan go 
can go really high as well, 

396
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,560
particularly Solana if he can 
get an ETF trade on the back of 

397
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,320
it as well. 
So I just think he's delayed it 

398
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,560
slightly. 
So yeah, your hopeium is that 

399
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,840
you, you, you hope for a 2025 
trade here. 

400
00:22:56,040 --> 00:23:00,320
I think if I'm sitting there 
right now, I'm down a lot. 

401
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,280
I think have a game plan. 
Think about right now who is 

402
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:05,720
coming in to buy your bags? 
Like do you own coins that 

403
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:08,080
people are desperate to buy or 
do you own coins? 

404
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:12,280
If they were not 30%, the 
holders would all sell because I

405
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,320
think there's a lot of coins 
like that as well right now. 

406
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:21,280
And extend your time horizon. 
Like I'm not saying, I'm not 

407
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:25,200
saying don't be have parabolic 
ideas where where things can go,

408
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,000
but I think we have a slightly 
longer time horizon. 

409
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,840
This, this will be a few weeks 
of fallout, in my opinion, of, 

410
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:37,320
of a move like that at least. 
And my, my view is also 

411
00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,880
simplify. 
So yeah, just just try and try 

412
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,360
and be in, in things that you 
really, really like. 

413
00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:48,640
And I think the worst thing to 
do here would be to to to get 

414
00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:53,920
caught up trying to make it back
and trying to like buy gambles, 

415
00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:55,800
because I think that's what some
people will do. 

416
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,640
And the people, if you're buying
somebody else's gamble, that 

417
00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,560
person will sell it on a 30 to 
40% rise. 

418
00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:06,320
Like if a coin is up right now 
with up in a few days, people 

419
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:11,040
pretty large orders like fuck 
this, particularly in stuff that

420
00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:15,920
might not be like multi cycle. 
So I, I be really aware of that 

421
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:17,640
as well. 
It might even feel good today. 

422
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:21,280
It's like, oh, I'm going to. 
FOMO and I'm going to make it. 

423
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:24,400
All back and then in like 3 days
it will be down 40%. 

424
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,440
And I, I reckon Solana and 
Bitcoin and E probably will just

425
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,200
kind of be unchanged or like 
they might even be higher. 

426
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,600
So I, I think it's not that even
those memes will never come back

427
00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:36,920
or those small coins will never 
come back or those gambles never

428
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:38,960
come back. 
It's just that these are the 

429
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,680
periods where people go like, 
fuck, remember, there's that 

430
00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,200
classic thing of like how much 
liquidity there in there is 

431
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,280
across all of meme coins, right?
Versus the actual market gap of 

432
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,400
meme coins. 
Just think about that like 

433
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,200
people, people will be like, OK,
I need to get out. 

434
00:24:56,280 --> 00:25:00,640
Yeah, I mean, hey, I'm in it for
the tech, so. 

435
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:04,280
JLP, baby, you got to be in it 
for JLP. 

436
00:25:04,400 --> 00:25:13,880
They're only down 3% today. 
I told you, I told you to be. 

437
00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:15,240
In there everyone got 
liquidated, so you. 

438
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:20,120
Can plan to tell me you told me?
Son of a bitch you could. 

439
00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:28,440
I had the short one and then and
then I closed it a week earlier.

440
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:30,480
Jose, you're in short. 
Hold on. 

441
00:25:31,120 --> 00:25:36,480
You're in short. 
Bro I let the I let the bulls 

442
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,800
shake me out of my Easter like 3
days. 

443
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:40,960
He closed it due to the abuse on
the show. 

444
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:44,920
No, I'm so sorry. 
I think a lot of people when 

445
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:48,920
Bitcoin hits, I mean, fucking 
hell, a week ago, not last 

446
00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,520
weekend, the weekend before 
Trump announced a Bitcoin 

447
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,400
strategic reserve. 
Essentially, he would not sell 

448
00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:55,040
bitcoins. 
And the Kamala thing happened. 

449
00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:58,920
Everyone, Kamala's going to win.
Everybody got spooked out. 

450
00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,440
Like the whole world is falling.
Like there's also like, it's not

451
00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:04,120
like there's also like civil 
unrest. 

452
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,680
A lot of place in the world, 
Europe, what's going on in the 

453
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,360
UK is absolutely fucking 
terrible. 

454
00:26:09,360 --> 00:26:11,400
There's a lot of unrest in your 
America right now with the 

455
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:14,160
politics. 
Kamala also for the first time 

456
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,200
going in front of Trump in terms
of the of the of the polls, 

457
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:20,960
which scares probably the market
Trump to stabilize a Kamala 

458
00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:22,760
crash. 
But of course, that's I guess 

459
00:26:22,760 --> 00:26:24,240
that's it. 
That's a great time to try to 

460
00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,600
have those tag lines, right? 
Japan, which obviously clearly 

461
00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:30,440
spooked a lot of people in the 
market like Mando, you know, so 

462
00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:33,800
eloquently explained this to us,
Vicks and all those big numbers 

463
00:26:33,800 --> 00:26:37,840
that you guys are talking about.
So I, I, I'm not surprised that 

464
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,400
even even in Bangladesh, there's
a coup happening. 

465
00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:44,760
Bangladesh, we we should have 
had expert Bangladeshi Ovi on 

466
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:46,880
the show today to talk to us. 
I've been telling him about 

467
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,800
this. 
This fucking unrest. 

468
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:50,960
For weeks he had barely any idea
what was going on. 

469
00:26:52,120 --> 00:26:53,680
I've been putting on man and 
ministry, like, you know, 

470
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:54,800
there's some shit going on man 
there. 

471
00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,520
She's like, oh, never really 
know about it. 

472
00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:58,680
You're trying to like kick her 
out or something. 

473
00:26:58,680 --> 00:26:59,880
It's like a coup. 
Happened actually. 

474
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:02,720
She's she's bad, she's bad. 
The bunk people been killed. 

475
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,800
Yeah, I don't know, I'm not a 
Bangladeshi like political 

476
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:11,120
expert, but I I just, I just saw
that it's like every time I open

477
00:27:11,120 --> 00:27:14,600
my, my ex, I mean, you know, ex 
is pretty good at also showing 

478
00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:16,840
you like all sorts of like 
horrible. 

479
00:27:16,840 --> 00:27:20,400
Like X has become like the 
number one fear mongering app in

480
00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,200
my opinion. 
Like it's pretty fucking bad. 

481
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,280
I'm sorry. 
Like I'm not a woo woo like I 

482
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:28,120
open X right now. 
It's I'll just say it, 

483
00:27:28,640 --> 00:27:35,840
anti-Semitic as fuck, anti like 
Islamic as fuck, anti anything 

484
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:40,720
remotely happy AF. 
Like it's just become just like 

485
00:27:40,720 --> 00:27:44,960
a cesspool of like racism and 
race bait and rage bait. 

486
00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:46,320
It is. 
It's. 

487
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:49,160
The clicks, man, We spoke about 
it on Friday, but you there were

488
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,880
you there on Friday's Show it. 
Was the show that was me and you

489
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:52,880
man though I think when we were 
talking. 

490
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,640
To meet you. 
Yeah, yeah, exactly on Friday, 

491
00:27:55,640 --> 00:27:59,080
like this exact topic. 
I mean, I I've watched people, 

492
00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:02,080
I've watched maybe 10 people get
shot this weekend on video. 

493
00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,040
I was not even trying to watch. 
I it's not like I searched like 

494
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,160
person getting shot in the 
fucking face. 

495
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:12,680
I was just, I saw some dudes 
stab people in Brazil on my 

496
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:13,920
feet. 
What the fuck do I care? 

497
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,320
I love Brazil and football. 
What the fuck do I care about 

498
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:18,760
what's going on in Brazil? 
You know what I mean? 

499
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:22,360
It's still being shown to me. 
I'm just friends who they're 

500
00:28:22,360 --> 00:28:24,480
just not using X anymore. 
It's. 

501
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,480
It's, it's insane, it's insane, 
it's insane. 

502
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,800
It's, it's crazy. 
Like I, I try to avoid it. 

503
00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,280
It's like they're like, oh, 
create your followers. 

504
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:34,920
Fuck you. 
I create my followers. 

505
00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:38,040
It's just, you know, I'm not 
saying anything as Brazilians. 

506
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,600
I like you, Mr. Olivus Blaster 
in the chat. 

507
00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:44,520
I'm just saying I don't care to 
see a Brazilian dad stab 

508
00:28:44,520 --> 00:28:47,440
somebody else on my timeline 
like. 

509
00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:52,840
I saw that exact same video and 
what I only follow NFT and 

510
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:58,040
crypto. 
Like I tweet about crypto all 

511
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,800
day long and I'm being fed like,
like, you know, being fed like 

512
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:03,720
something from another place in 
the world. 

513
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:06,720
Like, you know, yeah, OK, sure. 
You can show me some content 

514
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,720
about the Iran Israel stuff 
because I I've talked about it. 

515
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,320
I follow it pretty closely 
because I care, you know, but 

516
00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:16,720
like, I don't know, it's a, it's
a if you're like, I feel like we

517
00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,880
are like becoming like a like we
are like creating, like 

518
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,720
radicalizing people on both 
sides right now on social media 

519
00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:25,040
in the worst way possible left 
and right. 

520
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,720
Like I actually saw that. 
I actually went deep in the 

521
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:31,760
whole like UK rabbit hole last 
night, like 2-3 hours and on 

522
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,560
both sides, like the 
radicalization happening from, 

523
00:29:34,560 --> 00:29:37,120
from, from the social. 
I invite everybody to just like 

524
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:40,000
try to spend as little time as 
possible on, on social media 

525
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:43,280
right now, 'cause it's a, it's 
a, it's, it's actually really 

526
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,920
crazy right now. 
It's a, it's, there's enough 

527
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:49,280
content to make you hate Muslim 
people, hate Jewish people and 

528
00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:51,560
hate white people. 
Like, you know what I mean? 

529
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:54,080
Like there's enough content to 
make you hate all sorts of 

530
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:58,040
people on timeline right now. 
But anyway, Tyler, let's talk 

531
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:00,680
about your bottom ones. 
Thank you for that. 

532
00:30:12,840 --> 00:30:15,520
Yeah, certainly a more sober 
rundown here this morning 

533
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:19,640
headline we saw crypto majors 
crash 15 to 20% biggest single 

534
00:30:19,640 --> 00:30:23,640
day dip since 2021 jump Crypto. 
Seemingly unwinding huge 

535
00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:26,560
portions of their book and 
lighter news brought up earlier,

536
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:28,800
Morgan Stanley has given the 
green light to its advisors to 

537
00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:31,520
offer the Bitcoin ETS to their 
clients, starting with ibet and 

538
00:30:31,520 --> 00:30:34,720
FBTC Jupiter. 
They announced their latest 

539
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:36,800
proposal to slash the token 
supply by 30%. 

540
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:40,240
That has passed, so look for 
that token reduction here to 

541
00:30:40,240 --> 00:30:42,960
come. 
Blast stablecoin USDB. 

542
00:30:42,960 --> 00:30:45,680
It briefly depict during all the
chaos yesterday it hit like 

543
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:49,920
$0.94, but it is back to a 
dollar here this morning. 

544
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,240
Memes and NFTS, folks, it was a 
bloodbath. 

545
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,720
I won't go into a lot of detail 
here. 

546
00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:58,840
When I woke up this morning, the
top 75 meme coins on Solana were

547
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:02,600
all red by market cap. 
Top 75 are red over on ETH, just

548
00:31:02,600 --> 00:31:06,600
one one of the top 96 meme coins
were green. 

549
00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:08,360
I have to give a quick shout out
to Nero. 

550
00:31:08,360 --> 00:31:11,400
Nero coins up 50% on the day to 
160 million. 

551
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,600
So it is clearly the top 
performer right now. 

552
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:17,200
Another meme coin is we saw Pack
Moon tease a big move off of 

553
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,320
Blast. 
So the timing now isn't great. 

554
00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:23,280
They have narrowed their choices
down to either ETH or Solana. 

555
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:26,800
That token was at 4 million here
this morning over an NFT land. 

556
00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:30,160
Not great. 
Most leaders down 7 to 15% on 

557
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,200
ETH. 
Bitcoin NFT leaders down 10 to 

558
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:36,920
20%, down 10 to 15%. 
A lighter headline here before 

559
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:40,120
we wrap things up, travel swap. 
They shared their yearly revenue

560
00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:44,880
numbers on Friday. 
They jumped from $2400 in 2023 

561
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:49,760
to 234,000 in 2024. 
So I'd love to see a success 

562
00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,880
story on a on a more red day. 
Yeah, yeah. 

563
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:54,760
Big fan, big we, we work with 
them a lot. 

564
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:59,040
They do like all our we, we. 
I had a call with the founder 

565
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:02,120
Eric a couple weeks ago to two 
weeks ago. 

566
00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,720
And so they help us a lot with 
all the bookings, like all the 

567
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,720
hotel stuff, even flights and 
stuff like that. 

568
00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:10,400
It's it's really good. 
I think they're they're 

569
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:12,120
launching flights soon. 
That's not a secret. 

570
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,880
Like it's he's been talking 
about it, but but it's really 

571
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:16,160
cool. 
Like they help actually a lot of

572
00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,320
businesses as well, like B to B 
do a lot of this stuff. 

573
00:32:19,360 --> 00:32:21,400
Sometimes now you have to move 
team members and stuff like 

574
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:22,880
that. 
So complicated. 

575
00:32:22,880 --> 00:32:24,320
So it's actually a great 
company. 

576
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:28,440
I actually was talking, I was in
Germany and a bunch of family 

577
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:30,520
members like work in the travel 
industry for some reason. 

578
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:33,400
And they were like, oh, we 
haven't seen any applications of

579
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,120
crypto in travel. 
And actually was talking to them

580
00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:37,600
about travel swap because I 
thought I thought it was really 

581
00:32:37,600 --> 00:32:38,400
cool. 
And we were like, yeah, but 

582
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:39,640
there's no way to really make 
money. 

583
00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,120
I I should show them the revenue
stuff. 

584
00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:45,280
But because there definitely is 
ways to make money. 

585
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:46,840
It's funny, I think I was 
talking to Eric because like 

586
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:50,040
when meme coins pop like that 
the the amount of people that 

587
00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,600
use meme coins to to book 
travel. 

588
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:54,960
OK, being a trip, yeah. 
He was saying something like 

589
00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:59,960
Pepe is the number one coin you 
use for for, for for travels 

590
00:32:59,960 --> 00:33:02,440
because that's the one where a 
ton of people make a ton of cash

591
00:33:02,440 --> 00:33:04,880
early on, You know what I mean? 
Well, I mean, if you think about

592
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:07,560
like the concept of going bank 
less, which like on days like 

593
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,600
this, I think a lot of people 
like this, the last thing on 

594
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:11,720
their mind. 
But like in a in a future where 

595
00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:15,080
that is, you know, a real 
possibility, you need apps like 

596
00:33:15,080 --> 00:33:17,200
this, right? 
You you need apps where you can 

597
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,440
spend crypto to do things in the
real world that you want to be 

598
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,200
able to do. 
Yeah, I feel like there hasn't 

599
00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:24,840
been a ton. 
So I I think we got we have to 

600
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,960
root the root, root these apps 
on root root through success. 

601
00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:31,840
100% by the 100% I told him I 
said, Yo, he's like I want I 

602
00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:35,000
need Ryan Reynolds to be the 
travels face travels like yo, 

603
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:40,360
let me be here Ryan Reynolds, 
you know, but but I think I 

604
00:33:40,360 --> 00:33:43,120
agree with you. 
When I, when I had money, I 

605
00:33:43,120 --> 00:33:46,600
booked myself that first week in
Solana with some Zach profits 

606
00:33:47,480 --> 00:33:49,240
and, and it was really cool and 
seamless and 

607
00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:52,600
betterthanhotels.com because 
connect your wallet is way 

608
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:54,920
better than opted via e-mail. 
And that's just a fact. 

609
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,520
Yeah, like 5 miles. 
So, so that's, that's, that's I 

610
00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:01,360
like that shout out. 
I really, really like that shout

611
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:02,560
out. 
Wait, we're in your headlines. 

612
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:04,280
Look at that. 
We're up 42%. 

613
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,960
Roggenesis baby Roggenesis, one 
of the top movers. 

614
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,159
Are we? 
That's crazy. 

615
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:13,560
I just, I, I, I stopped looking 
at everything across the board. 

616
00:34:13,560 --> 00:34:15,920
I I complete disconnected myself
from anything. 

617
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:20,800
In my newsletter, every every 
day I, I, I do the top five meme

618
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:23,880
coins usually just across 
Ethan's salon and I had to, I 

619
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:31,040
had to put in a this morning. 
My 10 million is my cut off. 

620
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,719
I don't generally report on 
tokens under 10 million and and 

621
00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:36,960
there wasn't a single token in 
green above 10 million. 

622
00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:39,040
No, there's nothing right now, 
bro. 

623
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:40,560
There's absolutely nothing. 
You know what now? 

624
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:43,520
There's Nero. 
Nero is handling up man like 

625
00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:48,520
this is wild on a day like this.
It really is. 

626
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:51,040
That's you know, how about the 
wrong cobalt coin? 

627
00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:55,159
Shit, that's that was the one, 
the Solano, the Ethereum 1 

628
00:34:55,159 --> 00:34:58,200
right? 
Yeah, the Ethereum I'm trying to

629
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:01,640
search here so Pepe. 
It was on the back of Vitalik 

630
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,320
dumping his allocations. 
You see that. 

631
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:09,560
So Vitalik was like up holder 
and then I think dumped what, 44

632
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:12,720
eighth of it also does. 
Does Vitalik know how to read a 

633
00:35:12,720 --> 00:35:15,880
room? 
Like, have you seen his tweet 

634
00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:17,240
this morning? 
Yeah. 

635
00:35:17,880 --> 00:35:21,120
I, I love Vitalik. 
I, I don't get me wrong, mine's 

636
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,280
a genius. 
But like, do you think the first

637
00:35:24,280 --> 00:35:26,480
thing someone wants to read when
they wake up in the morning like

638
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:29,320
this is, I think people will be 
surprised by how quickly cross 

639
00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,600
out to into our operability 
problems, stopping problems and 

640
00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:34,440
we get a smooth, I copy pasted 
it this morning. 

641
00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:35,520
I don't think many people got 
it. 

642
00:35:37,160 --> 00:35:41,280
Yeah, it's being memed a lot. 
Maybe that that was his, you 

643
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,640
know, in his genius mastermind. 
He knew the timing was bad. 

644
00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,200
He knew it would get memed and 
then it would get his message 

645
00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:50,120
out amplified. 
You're right even further. 

646
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:52,520
Terrible timing. 
But that message is important, 

647
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:53,840
right? 
Isn't that that's like the main 

648
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,240
reason we've been kind of a lot 
of people have been nagging eat 

649
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:59,760
is like the difficulty of L2's 
and fragmentation. 

650
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:05,280
I totally agree with you. 
The other thing is I know you 

651
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,560
report on that. 
I have not seen this prices 

652
00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:13,480
since I got into crypto. 
That's when I go into space. 

653
00:36:13,640 --> 00:36:17,920
That's exactly what the floor 
was Feb 29th, 2021. 

654
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:21,720
I think the lowest pump was 15 
to 19 eighth. 

655
00:36:21,720 --> 00:36:24,960
And then when I really, really 
got into the punks that my first

656
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,680
pump was exactly at this price. 
It's 198050 K. 

657
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:32,000
So ETH was slightly higher, but 
was that was exactly where I 

658
00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,280
bought my first pump. 
How long do you think it's gone?

659
00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:42,280
I think 50K was like the the 
magic number for a lot of folks.

660
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:46,280
Clearly we're not seeing like a,
a massive buy spree here. 

661
00:36:47,360 --> 00:36:50,040
So I still feel like we're 
we're, we're probably going to 

662
00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:53,800
see teens and eat prices and 
then like a lot depends on how 

663
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:59,160
low does eat go here. 
Like I think we can see 40 like 

664
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,520
if I'm being honest, like where 
I'm going to pull the trigger, 

665
00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:04,200
like really move things around 
to buy a punk, it would, it 

666
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,480
would be below 40. 
Like I'm not going to like, you 

667
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:10,080
know, go out of my way right now
to to try to catch the punk 

668
00:37:10,080 --> 00:37:11,440
falling knife at 40K. 
I'm. 

669
00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:18,520
The same like this will get punk
like this 24 eighth on the floor

670
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:20,120
that just really no buyers. 
Yeah. 

671
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:23,800
I mean, yeah. 
I mean, and Andy was saying, 

672
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:26,480
right, you got to think about 
like who who's going to, who's 

673
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:28,480
buying your bags, who's 
potentially sellers Now, I don't

674
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:33,000
think like if punks run up 30%, 
everyone's going to be racing to

675
00:37:33,000 --> 00:37:34,840
sell their punks, right? 
Because we know that it's the 

676
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:40,040
older base, but no one's racing 
to buy in right now. 

677
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,040
You know what, like show that's 
a bored Ape. 

678
00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:48,200
Bored Ape's held up stronger 
than just about any other major 

679
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:49,440
NFT. 
They're out. 

680
00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:53,560
They're green on the week. 
I think Gordon was tweeting all 

681
00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:57,400
night, right? 
I may have missed those if he 

682
00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:59,880
was, but like, you know, there's
been this like infamous, like 

683
00:37:59,920 --> 00:38:04,320
I'm the lady's going to flip 
board apes in 2024. 

684
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:08,720
And you know, I mean, apes have 
been the, the dunking, the, the,

685
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,680
the dunking board basically, but
they're at 9.3 and they're 

686
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:15,960
green. 
Still tennis and eight, it's not

687
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:18,040
bad. 
You know, about 1/2 a punk. 

688
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:19,640
Little, little, little lower 
than that. 

689
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:24,200
ETH, ETH in ETH the nomination, 
the prices are holding pretty 

690
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:27,760
well on the NFT side, but you 
know obviously that the dollar 

691
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:32,600
value is not is not the same. 
What else do we got? 

692
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:34,560
Let me see, let me go through 
this. 

693
00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:37,240
I mean the pack one stuff I 
thought was interesting. 

694
00:38:37,240 --> 00:38:39,280
What, what, what? 
What do you think they're moving

695
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:41,280
to? 
I mean, it's a sign of times, 

696
00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:43,680
right? 
I I hate to say this, I'm not 

697
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:45,680
trying to flood blast and 
there's a lot of good people 

698
00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:48,360
building over there, but there's
there's there's nothing 

699
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,520
happening right? 
There's fancy top. 

700
00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:52,160
There's nothing happening, 
brother. 

701
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:54,680
There's only fantasy top right. 
We talked about this Friday. 

702
00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:56,720
Like I asked you guys, what is 
going on? 

703
00:38:56,720 --> 00:38:58,160
Like is there any? 
I didn't mean to FUD. 

704
00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:00,920
I'm like, is there anything 
going on on the chain? 

705
00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,640
I don't even see the Blast 
influencers really talking about

706
00:39:04,640 --> 00:39:07,960
anything right now. 
There's anything to talk about? 

707
00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:10,560
But what are you going to like? 
What? 

708
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:13,000
Even though you said USD, BD 
packed for a moment. 

709
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,760
Yes, it did. 
I think last night it got down 

710
00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:19,880
to like $0.94. 
I, I don't know that I don't 

711
00:39:19,880 --> 00:39:21,520
think anything necessarily bad 
happened. 

712
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:23,640
Like I, I don't, I didn't see 
like any big like liquidation 

713
00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:26,160
cascades or anything, but it D 
pays. 

714
00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:28,000
I mean, the Pacman chart does 
not look great. 

715
00:39:28,720 --> 00:39:31,600
We've known they've got a team, 
you know, who's been working and

716
00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:35,200
driving this thing forward. 
It's an interesting choice. 

717
00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:37,560
I actually don't have a strong 
read if they go either Solana, 

718
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,280
you know, we've seen there's 
there's historical success like 

719
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:45,600
the pups token bridge to Solana 
and that is arguably what drove 

720
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:49,440
their massive leg up before it 
it fully round trips. 

721
00:39:50,120 --> 00:39:54,480
But the ETH meme coin landscape 
is much more open, right? 

722
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:56,560
I think that's one of the 
benefits of ETH right now from a

723
00:39:56,560 --> 00:40:01,640
meme coins make it right. 
There's less competition versus 

724
00:40:01,640 --> 00:40:05,280
Seoul where we've got pump 
launching 10,000 coins a day and

725
00:40:05,400 --> 00:40:08,560
people hold on to a coin for 
three to five days the longest 

726
00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:11,080
seems like. 
Yeah. 

727
00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:14,680
So I I'd get ETH right now if I 
had to bet, Where'd they go? 

728
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:16,800
But I think it's pretty much a 
coin flip. 

729
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:19,640
I'll bet so I'll take the other 
side of that for the only reason

730
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:21,560
that blast is technically on 
Ethereum. 

731
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,520
Technically. 
Technically, you know, but 

732
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:33,840
obviously much easier to, to 
access than than than actual 

733
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:36,640
blast because you have to do the
whole Brit shit rich back and 

734
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:39,000
all that stuff. 
But I, I wouldn't be surprised 

735
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,120
if they moved to Solana because 
it seems like for what they're 

736
00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:46,240
trying to achieve, like the 
whole social validator stuff, 

737
00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:48,360
you know, all this kind of 
stuff. 

738
00:40:48,360 --> 00:40:51,080
I feel like I know it was really
axed. 

739
00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:52,800
I played with that, but I don't 
know, we'll see. 

740
00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:55,640
Anyways, nice bouncing Solana 
now, I don't know if anyone's 

741
00:40:55,640 --> 00:40:59,840
watching the markets, but back 
around $130.00 mark, I don't 

742
00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:01,000
know. 
It would make sense for this 

743
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:03,960
cycle, but I don't know. 
I don't know the whole tweet 

744
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:05,800
also like them asking Frank 
which one to pick. 

745
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:09,200
I don't know. 
I just I wasn't picking Solana. 

746
00:41:09,200 --> 00:41:14,040
I saw them, I saw them, I saw 
them do that while Pups is 20 

747
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:18,000
mil, that is absolutely. 
Max Max Payne that folks don't 

748
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:21,680
remember that hit 900 million. 
Shut up dude, are you serious? 

749
00:41:22,240 --> 00:41:25,400
Hit 900 million and then I was 
just doing the classic like 

750
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,800
what's my bag going to be worth 
if it just double S for me? 

751
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,000
Yeah, we can say now because 
we're all commiserating. 

752
00:41:34,040 --> 00:41:36,480
I had about half a million in 
pups at the top and it is worth 

753
00:41:36,720 --> 00:41:39,960
much less than. 
That yeah, like 1/2 something 

754
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:44,840
like that along those lines 
happens to the best of us, 

755
00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:47,800
happens to the best of us. 
And then but that's why. 

756
00:41:47,840 --> 00:41:49,600
But let's see how are we doing 
on the inflows? 

757
00:41:49,600 --> 00:41:54,560
I mean, I listen the I just I 
just retweeted something from 

758
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:57,080
arkamentalogens just for some 
from for people to say like we, 

759
00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:58,920
you know, we can do the whole 
like acting down bad this and 

760
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:00,840
that. 
Obviously it sucks to wake up to

761
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,360
see like your net worth 
decimated over the last couple 

762
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:05,600
weeks. 
But arkamental just tweeted you 

763
00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:07,800
guys stole all your coins, but 
BlackRock, MicroStrategy, 

764
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,480
grayscale fidelity did it and 
they haven't touched a coin. 

765
00:42:10,720 --> 00:42:13,160
And you also have Hunter Horsley
steal Bitwise talking about Hey,

766
00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:16,800
how like the like not a single 
one of their I like this one 

767
00:42:17,320 --> 00:42:19,680
this morning here, but I steal 
bitwise. 

768
00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:24,080
He said, I'm going to show you 
guys right now. 

769
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:28,960
Where's the zero? 
He goes 0 phone calls from 

770
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:30,720
clients so far. 
Know your game. 

771
00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:33,360
If you're trader trade if you're
buy and hold buy and hold. 

772
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,000
Nothing changed about thesis for
Bitcoin and crypto today. 

773
00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:39,520
In fact, one can imagine the 
moves ahead now that will even 

774
00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:41,400
be better for the asset. 
So, you know, I mean like, it's 

775
00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:44,320
like buyers are buying, you know
what I mean? 

776
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:47,920
And I think that we all get like
sucked into the trader mentality

777
00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:50,360
even though if we don't trade, 
because on Twitter, most of the 

778
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:52,400
big CT dudes are like big 
traders, right? 

779
00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:55,440
Like most of the prominent 
voices and influencer are all 

780
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:59,400
like actual traders, some very 
successful, some not so 

781
00:42:59,400 --> 00:43:01,080
successful, but still have a 
large audience. 

782
00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:04,080
So I think that everybody gets 
pulled into that mentality of 

783
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:06,400
like, I'm a trader. 
But like truth is you just buy 

784
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:07,960
and hold. 
If you're most of people listen 

785
00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:09,840
to the show, you guys just buy 
and hold. 

786
00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,560
So, you know, I think that's 
probably. 

787
00:43:12,560 --> 00:43:14,840
I was thinking about this right 
when I had my corporate job, I 

788
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,560
think I checked stock and crypto
prices like once a week. 

789
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:19,560
Like it didn't impact my life 
like I was going to. 

790
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,400
I had to go to work every day, 
right? 

791
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:24,880
And if the board was green, if 
it was red, like my day-to-day 

792
00:43:24,880 --> 00:43:27,440
didn't change. 
I think so many of us on CT just

793
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:29,600
get sucked into this like 
trading vortex and like the 

794
00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:33,400
Sky's just go outside, right? 
The sky is involved. 

795
00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:38,160
Everyone's going about their 
lives like normal and hey, it 

796
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:40,080
looks like we might be getting a
little bit of a bounce. 

797
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:43,320
And like, we asked who the 
buyers are, ETFs are buying like

798
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:44,200
that. 
That's who's buying. 

799
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:46,880
Right. 
Oh my God, imagine Larry Fink 

800
00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:49,080
woke up this morning was $1900 
ETH. 

801
00:43:49,440 --> 00:43:52,000
Motherfucker was like yo. 
It's 2420. 

802
00:43:52,120 --> 00:43:54,000
They've been buying since this 
market open, guys. 

803
00:43:55,240 --> 00:43:57,320
Are gobbling up. 
I cannot wait to see the 

804
00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,240
statistics on the ETFs tonight. 
It's going. 

805
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:03,360
To be a big day, I, I, yeah, I 
think, I think that I think we 

806
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:06,760
may see the biggest inflows in a
while for, for 10. 

807
00:44:06,760 --> 00:44:09,840
Percent since market. 
It was 2190 I think. 

808
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:13,720
I think today's going to be the 
biggest day for inflows across 

809
00:44:13,720 --> 00:44:15,680
the board. 
Bitcoin and Ethereum. 

810
00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:18,000
I wouldn't be surprised. 
I honestly wouldn't be 

811
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:20,360
surprised. 
Like the biggest inflows for for

812
00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:26,240
ETH was 106 M in one day and for
Bitcoin it was like we near the 

813
00:44:26,440 --> 00:44:28,920
what is it half a billion 
dollars in one day or something 

814
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:29,440
like that? 
I don't know. 

815
00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:30,680
I don't have I'm looking at D 
jams. 

816
00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,160
I don't think I can Scroll down 
lower than what I'm at now, but 

817
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,400
I'll I'll call it here. 
Like I think, at least for them,

818
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:38,720
we'll have the biggest Ethereum 
infill day forever. 

819
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:42,320
Like this is like this is great.
I mean, you have jump out, you 

820
00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:44,760
have you know what was, who was 
signed there. 

821
00:44:45,720 --> 00:44:47,560
As I saw it, maybe they sold 
more overnight. 

822
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,760
I thought they sold like 50,000 
so I need to get updated 

823
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:52,120
numbers. 
Don't take those to the bank. 

824
00:44:52,560 --> 00:44:54,000
We'll talk about it tomorrow. 
Yeah. 

825
00:44:54,520 --> 00:44:56,920
We can talk about it tomorrow, 
but anyway, so let's get over to

826
00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:00,440
our to our to our last segment. 
Every Monday from here forward, 

827
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:03,360
we'll be giving you guys a 
little update on the arbitrary 

828
00:45:03,360 --> 00:45:05,560
ecosystem. 
As you all may know, if you've 

829
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,800
paid attention to to rock radio 
this time decrypt our 

830
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:10,600
announcements, You know, we're 
going to be building an 

831
00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:13,600
arbitrary that we are building 
an arbitrary what you guys are 

832
00:45:13,600 --> 00:45:16,000
going to see roll out, you know,
soon. 

833
00:45:16,880 --> 00:45:18,760
And so they've got a lot of cool
stuff going on. 

834
00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:20,560
You know, we're talking about 
chains and stuff going on 

835
00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:24,160
between, across the board, you 
know, between the orbit chain 

836
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:26,960
news, between Sacco, between 
Zai, between Pirate nation. 

837
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:29,880
I mean, Tyler, what, what, what 
have you been seeing on there 

838
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,880
lately? 
Yes, Layer threes have been 

839
00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:37,440
growing in popularity and 
Arbitrum has had a lot to do 

840
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:39,640
with that success. 
And I think sometimes like 

841
00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:41,360
they've heard the term, they may
not really know like 

842
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:43,560
conceptually what layer threes 
are. 

843
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:45,680
So just to start with the, the 
basics. 

844
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:49,160
The goal of layer threes 
ultimately is to be DAP specific

845
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:52,320
so that a single DAP can perform
optimally in a more controlled 

846
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:57,040
environment because you have if 
you own the entire chain. 

847
00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:59,640
So the intended function of a 
layer three network is to 

848
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,640
improve scalability and 
efficiency of the Daps 

849
00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:04,880
decentralized applications built
on top of it. 

850
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:08,800
In in theory, I think the end 
goal you only want to hold house

851
00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:12,040
1 DAP potentially and enabling 
it to perform at the highest 

852
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:14,920
speeds without the congestion 
you're going to see on layer one

853
00:46:14,920 --> 00:46:18,000
and two networks. 
Where layer twos focus more on 

854
00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:20,640
improving scalability and 
efficiency of the chain they're 

855
00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:24,280
on top of, layer threes are more
intended to address issues like 

856
00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:26,800
user friendliness, efficiency, 
and functionality. 

857
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:31,520
So Arbitrum Orbit has had a lot 
of success here. 

858
00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:35,160
They have been used to help 
build D gin chain. 

859
00:46:35,240 --> 00:46:38,880
So D gin chain was built using 
the Orbit layer 3 architecture. 

860
00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:42,600
Over on base. 
We've seen Zai designed for 

861
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:45,160
gaming apps that's offering 
reduced fees and account 

862
00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:47,120
abstraction not available on 
other L twos. 

863
00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:50,720
I think a big one that's jumped 
out to me is pirate nation. 

864
00:46:51,360 --> 00:46:55,400
So if folks have been following 
the NFT market at all like those

865
00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:58,920
Pirate Nation NFT has been one 
of the the steady out performers

866
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,160
that pirate token has performed 
very well. 

867
00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:02,560
I think it went over 100 
million. 

868
00:47:02,560 --> 00:47:05,160
I haven't been checking it this 
morning in the crash. 

869
00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:07,400
And there there's CEO, there's 
actually a really nice Decrypt 

870
00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:10,840
article about Pirate Nation that
I would point folks to who who 

871
00:47:10,840 --> 00:47:14,400
wanted a deeper dive. 
He basically says that every 

872
00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:17,880
major game is going to have its 
own chain, its own L3. 

873
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:20,560
This comes from his experience 
building games like FarmVille, 

874
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:24,000
and he said during FarmVille, 
they're operating 64 different 

875
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:26,800
databases to keep the game from 
crashing. 

876
00:47:26,800 --> 00:47:29,760
They had 30 million daily active
users at peak. 

877
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:33,000
So when you think about Web 3 
gaming and the infrastructure 

878
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:36,040
that is needed to have that 
level of success, blockchains 

879
00:47:36,040 --> 00:47:38,120
are going to need that level of 
scale. 

880
00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:42,120
And that is why builders think 
layer threes are needed. 

881
00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:44,880
And Pirate Nation. 
They moved to Arbitrum Nova from

882
00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:49,040
Polygon due to rising gas fees 
and then they actually saw 

883
00:47:49,240 --> 00:47:52,400
issues being on a shared chain 
on Arbitron Nova, which led them

884
00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:55,400
to build their own L3 called 
Apex. 

885
00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:59,240
And I'll read a quote here. 
This is from the Pioneer CEO. 

886
00:47:59,240 --> 00:48:01,200
As soon as you're in application
with any level of scale, you 

887
00:48:01,200 --> 00:48:03,680
need to be able to predictably 
control your gas cost. 

888
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:06,240
My prediction is there's going 
to be thousands and thousands of

889
00:48:06,240 --> 00:48:10,160
chains as people split off from 
the shared L twos to application

890
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:13,920
specific chains. 
So I thought that was some 

891
00:48:13,920 --> 00:48:15,800
pretty interesting insight to 
me. 

892
00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:19,200
And I I've heard about L threes,
but I didn't, I guess I didn't 

893
00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:21,520
totally understand the, the, the
use case. 

894
00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,920
And when I hear it from him, you
know, a proven vet who who's 

895
00:48:24,920 --> 00:48:28,640
had, you know, a lot of success.
I think it makes the picture a 

896
00:48:28,640 --> 00:48:31,240
little bit more clear. 
I didn't realize he was, he was 

897
00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:34,840
on the FarmVille stuff early on.
I, I, I, I actually tried Pirate

898
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:38,040
Nation at GDC because I went to 
the arbitrary booth and, and 

899
00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:39,560
they were there. 
So I was just talking to them 

900
00:48:40,240 --> 00:48:42,600
going over I thought it was 
really smooth and seamless and I

901
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:45,080
know Danny's a big fan of it and
I've seen a lot of good chatter 

902
00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:48,600
like the the gaming side of web 
three of of Twitter. 

903
00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:51,400
Sorry, talking about piration in
good light like the NFTS were 

904
00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:53,680
really performing very well. 
Look, today's prices don't count

905
00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:55,000
right? 
Like everything's down because 

906
00:48:55,000 --> 00:48:57,680
I'm sure if I show I'm going to 
pull up a chart right now like 

907
00:48:57,720 --> 00:49:00,120
of pirate me like, oh, look at 
today, but like they've actually

908
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:02,760
done really well pirate on that 
front on that front. 

909
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:05,520
And then Xia, of course, like 
obviously everybody knows we're 

910
00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:08,440
close to Sobey, but in general, 
like he was really the one that 

911
00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:12,000
like made me realize what Alfies
are are and stuff and like why 

912
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:13,320
you would need one. 
And I thought it was really 

913
00:49:13,320 --> 00:49:17,080
impressive the amount of BD he's
done to be able to bring games 

914
00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:18,560
over. 
Like similar to pirate nation. 

915
00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:22,800
He brought crypto unicorns over 
from from from Polygon as well. 

916
00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:25,440
And it's like every other week 
there's a there's a new game 

917
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:26,960
being built on there. 
I know a lot of people want to 

918
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:30,720
like discount web through gaming
because of token prices, because

919
00:49:30,720 --> 00:49:33,880
also of a lot of tokens that 
were not necessarily useful or 

920
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:36,800
or necessary at the ecosystem, 
but there's still a lot of stuff

921
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:39,280
going on in that front and it's 
still probably going to be a 

922
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:42,400
leader in the other quick thing 
that I perceive. 

923
00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:45,640
I've mentioned that a lot. 
That was that was way before we 

924
00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:48,920
started doing the the whole like
Arbitrum update on this show. 

925
00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:50,520
That's the first one. 
But you guys have heard me talk 

926
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:52,840
about Songko TVA lot like this 
something like being in media. 

927
00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:54,920
I personally think it's fucking 
sick. 

928
00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:58,520
It's what ticker design DMT, 
which I always thought was funny

929
00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:01,400
that DMT was a ticker. 
Again, I'm not going to pull up 

930
00:50:01,400 --> 00:50:04,960
tickers today because it doesn't
do it justice, but it's actually

931
00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:09,720
like it's actually it's actually
something I followed closely 

932
00:50:09,720 --> 00:50:11,040
before. 
I'm pretty sure that team was 

933
00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:14,320
trying to build frames on the 
arbitrary at some point if not 

934
00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:17,040
had built it. 
I remember once I was talking 

935
00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:21,040
about how I wish I could stream 
the show live on forecaster when

936
00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:23,000
shit was hot and they were they 
were working on it. 

937
00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:25,840
So it's pretty much like a 
decentralized like twitch in a 

938
00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:27,680
way. 
And they've got a lot of cool 

939
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:30,360
stuff going on, a lot of 
activity and I I presumably like

940
00:50:30,360 --> 00:50:32,840
the whole vibe of it and 
feeling, but check it out song 

941
00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:36,720
called TVI always thought it was
really cool and A and a great 

942
00:50:36,720 --> 00:50:38,600
platform being built for some 
pretty smart founder. 

943
00:50:38,600 --> 00:50:40,640
Actually, it's the type of 
person I would have on the show 

944
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:44,600
to come to come to come talk 
about this because. 

945
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:47,200
There's a lot going on in Seiko 
TV and it's an ecosystem like 

946
00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:49,680
I've been trying to get more 
access to and I just, I haven't 

947
00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:52,240
buckled down and, and spent the 
time, but there's a lot of apps 

948
00:50:52,240 --> 00:50:53,920
and like that. 
I mean, of course the tokens are

949
00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:56,800
down today, but DMT was, was one
of the top performing alts. 

950
00:50:57,360 --> 00:51:00,640
Like it, it's hard. 
I think it hit like $150 million

951
00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:03,560
market cap. 
So like they've had some some 

952
00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:05,600
strong success. 
Yep, they were. 

953
00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:09,920
They were it was a it was a 
pretty love coins for for 

954
00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:12,120
altcoin for for a very long 
time. 

955
00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:15,440
And I know for a fact that there
that those founders are doing 

956
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:17,040
some cool stuff. 
But anyways, look, every Monday 

957
00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:19,440
we'll present you some some cool
stuff being built on Arbitrum, 

958
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:22,240
including what we're what what 
we're up to. 

959
00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:24,640
I really like that team and 
obviously, like it's always a 

960
00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:27,080
pleasure to to partner with, 
with builders in this industry 

961
00:51:27,080 --> 00:51:29,760
that that are pushing, pushing 
boundaries and pushing the space

962
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,600
forward, especially the etherium
ecosystem, which we love, right.

963
00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:35,440
So it's awesome. 
Anyways, Tyler, Tyler, Tyler, 

964
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:37,360
we're on time. 
This was great. 

965
00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:40,200
We survived the show. 
I woke up not sure how we do it,

966
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:45,760
but we did it because remember, 
remember in the words of the why

967
00:51:45,760 --> 00:51:49,000
CZ who's watching this from 
prison, wishing he could buy 

968
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:52,480
this dip. 
He says if you can't hold you 

969
00:51:52,480 --> 00:51:55,080
won't be rich. 
So with that with that with that

970
00:51:55,160 --> 00:51:57,080
we'll see y'all tomorrow 
morning, 10:00 AM Eastern 

971
00:51:57,080 --> 00:51:59,480
Standard Time for another 
episode of formal hour on rock 

972
00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:00,800
radio. 
Let's.
