00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:08,119
Good morning, good morning, 
everyone, GM, GM and welcome to 

2
00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,440
another episode of Homo Hour 
today. 

3
00:00:13,040 --> 00:00:19,400
Today is Tuesday, June 10 point 
.5 folks, the all time high 

4
00:00:19,400 --> 00:00:22,120
waiting rooms are open. 
We're in there. 

5
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,240
A few tokens have already gotten
there late last night or this 

6
00:00:25,240 --> 00:00:27,000
morning. 
It looks like Bitcoin. 

7
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:29,560
It's close. 
It's it's edging a little bit, 

8
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,200
dipping a bit here this morning.
The question on everyone's 

9
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:34,720
minds, are we going to get it 
today or not? 

10
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:37,080
We're going to break it down on 
today's show. 

11
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:39,320
No faroke. 
He is traveling, but we've got 

12
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:41,320
Mando on. 
We've got Logan on with us. 

13
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:44,920
Mando, Jim, how you doing? 
I'm doing great. 

14
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:46,880
How are you, man? 
I'm good. 

15
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:50,320
I woke up to a very green board.
It was it was electric Grant. 

16
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:54,320
So a very nice, nice start to 
the day. 

17
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,280
And it feels like we're moving. 
It feels like there's something 

18
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,800
in the air to me. 
At least that's how I'm that's 

19
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:02,360
how I'm feeling right now. 
Yeah. 

20
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,280
I mean, I said what I said to 
you yesterday, like I think I 

21
00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:09,000
think the thing I've been even 
picking up on is the staking 

22
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:13,520
ETFs that I think is going to be
the most probably approved this 

23
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:18,320
month with BlackRock have been 
in asking for this for a while. 

24
00:01:18,320 --> 00:01:21,520
And then we have a number of 
different firms actually close 

25
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:25,240
to that. 
And I think if that was to 

26
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:26,640
happen, I think you got you have
a little bit. 

27
00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:28,760
And then there was some comments
yesterday from the SEC chair 

28
00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:32,200
basically being like Defy, don't
worry about it. 

29
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:35,240
We're we're we're not going to 
come after you guys anymore. 

30
00:01:36,120 --> 00:01:39,800
And so you had all the big Defy 
coins rally quite a lot. 

31
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:43,600
And I think that's yeah, just a 
really good sign. 

32
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:52,040
So I've, I think now, you know, 
I've been bullish on earth for a

33
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:56,480
little bit now. 
I think now it's got the 

34
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,080
narrative that you need it to 
right before it was just like, 

35
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,040
oh, it's rallying and like 
what's going on now It's got 

36
00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:04,400
like some semi reason for why 
you can't be bullish. 

37
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:06,360
Oh my God sake, ETF. 
I don't even know how big that's

38
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,880
going to be, but like there's 
just a thing that people can say

39
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:13,920
it's that. 
And so if that gets delivered, 

40
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:16,760
then you can see a rally. 
Do you know what I mean? 

41
00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:20,320
Or I think the other thing is 
just D5 stuff. 

42
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,560
So it's like, oh, D5 is 
something about to explode. 

43
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,680
Like I think I'm now just like 
waiting for the point where like

44
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,640
the narrative starts to make 
sense and that it's, it's 

45
00:02:29,640 --> 00:02:36,200
suddenly did pretty recently. 
So I'm, yeah, I'm, I'm, I'm 

46
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,840
relatively bullish now on, on 
where things are going to go. 

47
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,880
He he was narrative less. 
Basically the only narrative was

48
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:45,880
it's a catch up trade. 
It's oversold. 

49
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,320
Yeah, but now there's some more 
substantial ones. 

50
00:02:49,640 --> 00:02:52,520
So we'll get into it some 
definitely some big pieces of 

51
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,680
news there. 
Plus we've also got Logan back 

52
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:57,920
for the first time in what feels
like weeks, several weeks. 

53
00:02:57,920 --> 00:02:59,720
Logan, GM, how you doing? 
Hey. 

54
00:02:59,920 --> 00:03:01,840
Good morning. 
Yeah, it has been a a couple 

55
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:03,520
weeks, but a couple of good 
weeks. 

56
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,480
I think last time I was on 
Bitcoin might have been around 

57
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:09,640
9596, something like that. 
Wow. 

58
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,560
So yeah, it feels much better, 
of course, waking up today, the 

59
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:18,840
green on the board and you know 
what, maybe those easy Rd., you 

60
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,120
know those mile markers for the 
easy Rd., they might be 

61
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,080
approaching and who knows, 
hopefully. 

62
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:24,960
Are we going? 
Are we going to be on the Easy 

63
00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:26,680
Rd. 
Perhaps even as soon as this 

64
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,120
week? 
That's what the M2 chart tells 

65
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,080
us, but not everyone is buying 
it. 

66
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:32,520
We'll get into it on today's 
show, folks. 

67
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,040
What are we talking about? 
We're going to start with the 

68
00:03:34,040 --> 00:03:36,720
market report. 
As always, we got more Bitcoin 

69
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,360
treasuries spinning up. 
These ETS are on a 16 day streak

70
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,400
now. 
We've got, as Mando mentioned, 

71
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:47,080
that some bullish D5 commentary 
out of the SEC Chair Paul Atkins

72
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,840
hype. 
It's a new all time high. 

73
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,400
The launch coin ecosystem 
rebounding quite a bit. 

74
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:56,400
Folks are already running out 
their annualized revenue 

75
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,920
graphics. 
You love to see that pump fun. 

76
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:02,320
Was it saved by this verse token
yesterday, which came out of 

77
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:06,280
nowhere and ran to a billion? 
We've got other meme leaders on 

78
00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,480
the move. 
Virtual's moving to ETH this O 

79
00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:13,240
cap games race thruster, winding
down OPS and more a lot to get 

80
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:16,480

All right, Mando, if you're 

93
00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:05,440
ready, let's get into it. 
Who is the man Macro daddy of 

94
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:10,920
the land? 
Can you dig it? 

95
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,280
GM everyone. 
So yeah, it's it's been a decent

96
00:05:13,280 --> 00:05:15,960
day. 
I think bit mix for Bitcoin, but

97
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,720
for all coins we've had a a 
decent run up. 

98
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:22,480
As I said yesterday, it feels 
like the crux of this is to do 

99
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:26,560
with the comments by the SC CS 
chair yesterday basically being 

100
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,760
like we're OK on D5 now. 
You saw a bunch of D5 coins 

101
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:34,880
rally pretty aggressively on the
back of that, which was mainly 

102
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:38,280
Ave. was the big one. 
And then you've had hype hitting

103
00:05:38,280 --> 00:05:39,840
you all time high off the back 
of that too. 

104
00:05:39,840 --> 00:05:44,920
I think hype was mentioned in 
Washington yesterday and I think

105
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,960
the other one's uni uni swap had
a decent move. 

106
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:51,840
So this whole ETH ecosystem ETF 
I think suddenly kind of got a 

107
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:56,000
narrative behind it and you've 
seen a big rally I think in in 

108
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,920
ETH and then kind of ETH related
coins. 

109
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,000
Some of the ETH betas did well 
to be fair, some of some of some

110
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,200
of the generic betas did well. 
Like we've seen a big move in 

111
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,560
things like far coin. 
Obviously they've got Coinbase 

112
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,920
and they I think Coinbase just 
had a perps as well for them. 

113
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,760
So dominating in terms of 
volume. 

114
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:16,120
So it feels like coins that you 
want to own are doing well. 

115
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,960
I don't think we're seeing like 
I don't think we're seeing a 

116
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:22,920
broad based altcoin season. 
And I treat that out just before

117
00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:24,600
we went live. 
Like I don't think we're going 

118
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,160
to see a broad based altcoin 
season just because it doesn't 

119
00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,120
feel like there's enough new 
people that have come in to buy 

120
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:32,320
altcoins. 
I think just buy the coins, 

121
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:33,880
which is strong. 
Do you know what I mean? 

122
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,120
It will happen from the hype is 
a good coin to buy right now 

123
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,240
because it's struck the the 
market is strong that'll rally 

124
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,480
far coins market. 
It's a coin that most people 

125
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,120
will have on their list of 
potential buy it rallied. 

126
00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,960
I think Ave. maybe is it's own 
like select thing because has 

127
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,400
this relationship with ETH at 
the moment has a fee switch. 

128
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:56,000
But after the and after the 
circle IPO, there's some look at

129
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,840
like D5 coins having a decent 
move. 

130
00:06:57,840 --> 00:07:01,480
But Ave. is another one which 
which feels very much ETH beta, 

131
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,720
But but other than that, I'm I'm
not wary of like FOMO. 

132
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,840
And I think you kind of seen 
that like the other L ones, Sui 

133
00:07:08,840 --> 00:07:11,400
Solana, like they're they're 
doing OK, but like they don't 

134
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:15,240
feel like they don't feel like 
you're sitting there some 

135
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,360
raging. 
Like that's a 158, like it's 

136
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,840
kind of art, but it's also 
unchanged in the week. 

137
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,840
So I'd be very wary just like 
we're about to see everything go

138
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,680
to all time high again. 
I think. 

139
00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,720
I think we're going to see as 
always with all coins, he's now 

140
00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:35,960
pockets of stuff which 
outperforms and I would probably

141
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,080
go with the trend on on stuff 
that you think is going to 

142
00:07:39,080 --> 00:07:42,160
outperform. 
So hype has been such an obvious

143
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,080
one for a while, but there's 
been there's obviously a few 

144
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,800
more in that sort of world. 
That was it because of like the 

145
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:50,920
the the main top down crypto 
news. 

146
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,080
There's obviously more companies
coming saying that they're going

147
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,240
to buy Bitcoin. 
That's happens every single day.

148
00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:00,560
But I think Ethan ecosystem is 
kind of taking the taking the 

149
00:08:00,640 --> 00:08:05,000
majority of the focus right now.
And then you, as I said to 

150
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,120
Tyler, I think we will hear 
about staking ETFs soon. 

151
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:11,400
I just get the feeling that that
is going to be the headline and 

152
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,440
it may be for Ethan Solana or it
may just be for ETH. 

153
00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,640
But it feels as though we're 
going to hear about, I think 

154
00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,560
we're going to hear about that 
in the next month or so. 

155
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:24,640
State ETF, state ETH hit an all 
time high actually overnight, 

156
00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:26,840
which I think is an interesting 
move. 

157
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:31,240
But and I'm not the the biggest 
EEF bull of all time. 

158
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,520
I think you can tell I've been 
pretty, pretty against it, But I

159
00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,080
do think it's got a it's got 
this like narrative now where it

160
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:41,159
can it can push on. 
Yesterday macro was pretty 

161
00:08:41,159 --> 00:08:42,039
quiet. 
Actually. 

162
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,240
Tesla is taking a lot of the 
focus just because of what Trump

163
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,760
and and Elon were doing. 
But this period has been a 

164
00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,360
period of rising bond yields, 
stocks actually heading towards 

165
00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:54,840
roughly all time highs, but 
really big moves in a lot of 

166
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,920
commodities. 
So gold has kind of stuck in 

167
00:08:57,920 --> 00:08:59,800
around all time high, but you 
have silver hitting all time 

168
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,920
close to all time high. 
I think it's platinum. 

169
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,200
Platinum is hitting is going 
parabolic right now. 

170
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:10,160
So a lot of these like hard 
assets are, are trading very 

171
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,560
well. 
And these assets which don't 

172
00:09:12,560 --> 00:09:16,360
really move like that, like 
they, they traditionally are 

173
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:19,000
quite quiet. 
So it's just interesting to see 

174
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,520
this is probably not a bullish 
sign, but it's a, it's a sign 

175
00:09:22,520 --> 00:09:25,720
that people are are kind of 
wanting to move away from bonds 

176
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,160
and stocks and into stuff that 
they perceive to be a bit more 

177
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:31,000
of like a hedge against, against
that sort of stuff. 

178
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,040
This week we still have CPI and 
PPI. 

179
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:42,160
CPI actually come out. 
It's tomorrow, it's tomorrow, 

180
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,040
sorry. 
So it's tomorrow. 

181
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,800
And I think that'll be the main,
the main thing that that will 

182
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:53,240
move the market. 
Normally what happens is PPI 

183
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:56,600
comes out, CPI comes out, market
moves and then market kind of 

184
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,760
reverses what it was doing. 
When PPI comes out, I think 

185
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,960
we'll probably come in slightly 
below expectations again, as we 

186
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:06,280
have seen. 
But I don't think these CPI are 

187
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,800
that important because the Fed 
has already said that we don't 

188
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,920
really care. 
We think there's going to be 

189
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:12,440
some short term impact of 
tariffs. 

190
00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:16,400
And so, like, if it comes above,
people will just say, oh, don't 

191
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:21,160
worry about it, which I think is
kind of an interesting position 

192
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:24,680
to be in. 
Yeah, I think there's more 

193
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:28,200
upside than downside risk to 
your point, like if it's, if 

194
00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:32,640
it's a little high to go, we 
knew about this, it's tariffs. 

195
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:39,680
But I, I think the, the Milk Rd.
crew has been tracking the 

196
00:10:39,680 --> 00:10:43,400
trueflation to CPI data and it 
looks like it's been reporting 

197
00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:47,680
on some kind of like a 45 day 
lag CPI compared to trueflation.

198
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:52,960
So the true inflation index is 
going up since May, but it was 

199
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:58,360
very, very low in April and May.
So if we get the May CPI data 

200
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,240
and if it, if it's tracking into
this range, like it could be a 

201
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:05,640
very low number. 
And if it comes in low, I wonder

202
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:09,560
if folks will, will run with 
that temporarily, rightfully or 

203
00:11:09,560 --> 00:11:13,120
wrongfully. 
I was looking at the rate cut 

204
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,680
odds. 
So I, I think there's starting 

205
00:11:16,680 --> 00:11:19,560
to be I'm seeing this narrative,
I heard it on the, the nifty 

206
00:11:19,560 --> 00:11:22,160
show this morning that folks 
think there there won't be any 

207
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:26,520
rate cuts this year. 
Like that's, that's still that 

208
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:30,080
would be very there's low 
chances of no cuts, 7%. 

209
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:35,320
So we're looking at 30% odds of 
1 cut on the CME futures, 40% 

210
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:43,160
chance of 220% for three. 
So we'll see if this changes 

211
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:48,560
coming out of the, the CPI. 
But I'm, how much does this even

212
00:11:48,560 --> 00:11:50,720
matter right now? 
Like we, we were talking about 

213
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,800
some of the catalysts, right? 
Yesterday I said on the show, I 

214
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:55,640
think it was after you left 
Mando and then you, you 

215
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:59,160
responded to me on, on X that 
crypto kind of broadly feels 

216
00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,480
like a, a powder keg. 
And there's a handful of 

217
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,400
announcements that could really 
light the match. 

218
00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:08,480
And I was pointing to like the 
potentially the no capital gains

219
00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:10,720
if the US is finding a way to 
acquire. 

220
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:12,520
And if they make any 
announcements, there's to like 

221
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:15,520
blockbuster ones. 
Certainly there are others. 

222
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:19,240
I think the resolution to the 
the US China trade deal would be

223
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:22,960
1, perhaps on a smaller scale, 
but at least for a near term 

224
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,720
boost. 
The sticky ETFs are a very 

225
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:31,880
interesting one. 
Yeah, I think, I think the fact 

226
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,400
that BlackRock have been pushing
for it, I mean, you've seen a 

227
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,520
lot about this. 
So the reason why this has 

228
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:41,280
happened is on the 31st, it was 
basically said that if you 

229
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:43,960
stake, it's not considered to be
a security and that's quite a 

230
00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,880
big thing. 
And then yesterday similarly the

231
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,680
SEC chair came out and said 
basically like staking's fine. 

232
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,480
So you've seen this like very 
quick movement towards this and 

233
00:12:53,480 --> 00:12:56,160
there's a, a number of BTS 
coming up, which would apply for

234
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,800
that sort of staking. 
So it now seems highly likely 

235
00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:01,840
that we're going to see 
something around that relatively

236
00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:03,720
soon. 
And I think if that comes out, 

237
00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:07,040
this whole narrative of like all
this, either state supply shop, 

238
00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:10,080
all that sort of stuff, 
alongside what we saw with 

239
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:14,120
Pectra and kind of be can kind 
of be the new narrative. 

240
00:13:15,160 --> 00:13:16,680
I'm just, I'm just looking 
ahead. 

241
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,520
I I don't even fully believe 
this star. 

242
00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:24,240
Is it like I'm I'm actually of 
the belief that Solana looks 

243
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,000
really undervalued, but I don't 
think it's going to be the thing

244
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,680
that outperforms it. 
I think. 

245
00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,120
I think Heath is just got. 
It got itself in a really nice 

246
00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:34,960
spot. 
I'm with you. 

247
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,120
I, I feel like it's one of those
things that will have been 

248
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,000
obvious in hindsight. 
And there's some folks like 

249
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,880
Pintoshi's been kind of pounding
the table on the stick and ETFs 

250
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,920
are around the corner for what 
feels like three to six months 

251
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:47,440
now. 
So he's been he's been at it for

252
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:53,800
a while, but like this candle 
from 1800 to 2500 and three days

253
00:13:55,280 --> 00:14:00,960
in early May, a move like that 
feels like it's in the realm of 

254
00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,800
of possible scenarios. 
It's it's probably the top 10% 

255
00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,920
bullish outcome coming out of 
the back of us taking ETF. 

256
00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:13,080
But if Ethereb from 2700 to 3300
I don't I wouldn't be that 

257
00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:16,600
surprised it it would still be 
negative on the year. 

258
00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:21,880
Yeah, I think, I think it's 
that's what I think it's like 

259
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:27,600
it's it's still not liked enough
like as just or I think the 

260
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,000
other issue is that everyone 
bought the beaters, right. 

261
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:34,040
No one wants no one, which is 
like the other bit of the trade 

262
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,280
here. 
We're like the beaters are not 

263
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:39,200
trading apart from Ave. like the
beaters. 

264
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:42,400
My my ETH bag that I bought has 
done way better than the bag I 

265
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,800
bought Mog or Pepe. 
They've kind of gone sideways 

266
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:47,480
over this period. 
Rect has done really well 

267
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:50,080
obviously, but I think Rect is 
like people consider rect on ETH

268
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:51,920
beta I think is like maybe 
looking at it wrong. 

269
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:53,720
It's got it's own like. 
Ice, it's like. 

270
00:14:54,160 --> 00:14:57,480
Capital markets thing, but I 
think the ones that you would 

271
00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:00,960
traditionally think of ETH beta 
SPXI guess is 1, but I feel like

272
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:02,920
that was kind of under earned. 
Do you know what I mean? 

273
00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:05,840
Like it was, it is like when 
people say what do you want to 

274
00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:09,280
own for ETH beta, then you 
probably say Pepe and Pepe's 

275
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:13,400
done OK, but ET just only ETH 
itself has actually beaten Pepe.

276
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:19,320
Interesting, I hadn't really 
looked at them both side by 

277
00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:22,720
side. 
It really reminds me of when we 

278
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:26,320
all thought Solana was about to 
go to 200 or like 250 and 

279
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:28,840
everyone bought all the beaters.
And then you end up just like 

280
00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:32,200
fighting it out on these beaters
because there's not enough new 

281
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,200
people coming in to buy those. 
Whereas ETH is the institutional

282
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,960
1. 
You know, like this is a bad, 

283
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,600
maybe a bad analogy, but it's 
like it's sometimes it's like 

284
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,840
owning runes because you think 
Bitcoin is, is the trade, you 

285
00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,680
know, like sometimes just own a 
bit of Bitcoin. 

286
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,600
You know, we're so obsessed with
getting the 10X that we might 

287
00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,240
just miss the 2X and much bigger
size that you can probably put 

288
00:15:55,240 --> 00:16:00,320
on. 
And that's kind of my thought a 

289
00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,880
little bit here. 
It makes sense. 

290
00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:05,560
I feel like one difference 
between like the Solana run up 

291
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:08,960
last year. 
I think people held Seoul and 

292
00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:12,520
certainly people went out the 
reserve and traded soul memes 

293
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,600
and got sold beta. 
But I'd say a lot of my friends 

294
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,160
in in my train circles were 
holding Solana bags. 

295
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:25,080
I don't I don't have those 
friends holding ETH bags right 

296
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,280
now other than you. 
You've been kind of pounding the

297
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:31,600
table on here for a little 
while, but not many others. 

298
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:33,960
Maybe stats. 
I think stats has been holding 

299
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:39,320
his ETH for for for quite some. 
The difference is think is is 

300
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:41,880
your buddy holding ETH and and 
others. 

301
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:47,280
That's the difference here. 
I'm not even that, but I don't, 

302
00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:51,600
I don't really use ETH like as a
thing, right? 

303
00:16:55,160 --> 00:17:01,600
I much prefer using Solana and 
part of that is to stay a, a 

304
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,960
phantom thing, right? 
But it's I'll just prefer it as 

305
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,680
a chain whenever I'm doing any 
payments or like just everything

306
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,640
about it, I prefer. 
But I do think ETH has just got 

307
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,359
the narrative right now. 
And if you're going to talk, if 

308
00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,160
you think about what everyone's 
bullish on right now, it's 

309
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,400
institutions, institutions 
coming in. 

310
00:17:17,400 --> 00:17:21,599
ETH feels very like it's built 
for these sort of like 

311
00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,560
institutions. 
You're going to come in and put 

312
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,720
on like 500 million of 
treasuries or like they're going

313
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:29,360
to. 
It just feels like it's built 

314
00:17:29,360 --> 00:17:34,400
for that. 
Well, there's two factors. 

315
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,840
One, there's the yield 
component, which is just an 

316
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:42,240
obvious, the other is the Joe 
Lubin, we're building the world 

317
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:45,880
computer, the alternative to 
traditional finance. 

318
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:51,320
And that narrative was what that
was loud in 2021, like when I 

319
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,920
was kind of really first 
entering the space and, and 

320
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,640
learning about these majors and 
what the difference. 

321
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,680
And it was like digital oil and 
none of us really understood 

322
00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:07,960
what digital oil meant. 
But I think the setup and the 

323
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,320
price action starts going back 
positive. 

324
00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,360
The narrative for the world 
computer becomes stronger as 

325
00:18:13,360 --> 00:18:15,760
well. 
That coupled with the foundation

326
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,600
starting to to pivot a bit their
focus as well. 

327
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,920
Logan, I think you're you're not
in your head for your thoughts 

328
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:25,320
on all this. 
Yeah, I think it's difficult, at

329
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,520
least from my perspective and 
I'm not like actively acquiring 

330
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,440
or trading ETH at this point in 
time. 

331
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:36,080
But from the just my objective 
observations of headlines and 

332
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,200
such from the last few weeks, 
it's difficult not to have some 

333
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:42,160
level of optimism around ETH at 
present time. 

334
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:43,880
You mentioned the Joe Lubin 
interview alone. 

335
00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,280
I got to write an article about 
that and listen into your 

336
00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:49,560
interview in depth. 
That's that's a tough one to 

337
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:51,800
walk away and not feel super 
bullish on. 

338
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,920
You know, and, and no one or 
very few people right would have

339
00:18:55,920 --> 00:19:00,160
better insight into the future 
of Ethereum both near term and 

340
00:19:00,160 --> 00:19:02,280
long term than Lubin would of 
course, right. 

341
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,720
Couple that with as you've noted
here Mando, the institutional 

342
00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,960
interest, you know, analysts 
from Bernstein and etcetera are 

343
00:19:11,000 --> 00:19:14,040
you know are talking about that 
as well as just pointing to the 

344
00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:17,840
fact that some of the some of 
that interest is people looking 

345
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:22,520
to actual activity on these 
networks and seeing their 

346
00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:25,440
underlying token. 
When we talk about playing betas

347
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,480
versus not playing betas, seeing
the underlying token as things 

348
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:32,040
that are perhaps undervalued. 
That was something that was 

349
00:19:32,040 --> 00:19:34,640
highlighted in the Bernstein 
note from you know, mid-May or 

350
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,880
something like that. 
That just kind of stuck with me.

351
00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,880
You know, stablecoin interest, 
defy interest, whatever the case

352
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,240
may be. 
Etherium has the rails and is, 

353
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:47,840
you know, world computer 
electricity, Lubin said like 3 

354
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:49,800
or 4 different things, right? 
Like it, it's kind of like all 

355
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:52,760
of those things, or at least has
the opportunity to be all those 

356
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:56,200
things. 
And if you want just an easy way

357
00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:59,480
to gain access to it, you buy 
ETH, right? 

358
00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:02,000
You buy Ether, the token versus 
all those different betas. 

359
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,560
And so, yeah, I mean, I said, I 
think I'm kicking myself a 

360
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:08,440
little bit in the last few weeks
by not even just starting a 

361
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:12,680
small DCA into it. 
It still feels kind of like 

362
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:15,200
that, not to be super cliche, 
but that like beach ball 

363
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:18,160
underwater thing. 
I think everybody else got their

364
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,320
time to shine, right. 
Solana had its, Bitcoin has had 

365
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:25,080
its, but like Ethereum still 
feels like it's, it's probably 

366
00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:29,240
due a not financial advice, but 
it's it's probably due like a 

367
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:32,080
little bit of a, you know, time 
in the spotlight. 

368
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,000
I don't think it's really gotten
that just yet. 

369
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:39,600
It's hard to believe in some 
capacity that December 8th, 8th 

370
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,720
was 4000. 
I don't remember what that what.

371
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:44,280
That Yeah. 
Crazy, right? 

372
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:47,680
And would it be crazy? 
You can. 

373
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:52,200
Run a long way and and and not 
be overbought, you know? 

374
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,160
Yeah. 
Like it wouldn't, yeah, if, if 

375
00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,760
we're doing the show in two 
months and it's the 4K, like it 

376
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,640
wouldn't, it wouldn't shock me, 
right, If you told me that's a 

377
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,000
scenario that's on the table 
here. 

378
00:21:02,360 --> 00:21:05,280
Yeah, but that still feels, I 
mean, it feels a little silly 

379
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:08,680
that like only four K, you know 
what I mean? 

380
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,880
Like that's what the way that 
I'm internalizing that when you 

381
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,280
say ETH is 4K just because it's 
it's been there, done that 

382
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:17,080
before, you know what I mean? 
But we're still like 4800, the 

383
00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:20,840
all time high. 
Some of the analysts are 

384
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:23,440
projecting, you know, anywhere 
between 4:00 to 5K here. 

385
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:26,320
Arthur Hayes has something 
similar as well, 4 to 5K by the 

386
00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,200
end of the year. 
Like it's not shocking, but at 

387
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,560
the same time it's not even it 
doesn't even give you that like 

388
00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,280
the the shine just because it's 
it's already happened. 

389
00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:39,400
It's kind of boring for it to be
a 4K, even if that is like, you 

390
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:43,000
know, a huge move from here. 
It's like a 50% move up. 

391
00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:45,120
It's a 50% move up. 
That's a really good way to put 

392
00:21:45,120 --> 00:21:47,480
it. 
I think like Bitcoin moving 50% 

393
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:54,920
right now takes it to 100 and or
100 and 60 KA 150. 

394
00:21:55,240 --> 00:22:01,480
Yeah, like that's, that feels 
more more difficult to me than 

395
00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:05,240
it's going to 4K, right? 
When's Bitcoin going to 165 K? 

396
00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,600
This year. 
If it does, I think it could go 

397
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:14,640
a lot higher like I think it 
could go to to 4K in the next in

398
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,680
by the end of this this summer. 
Basically it could, it could do 

399
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:21,880
it by yeah, I think over the 
next couple of months basically 

400
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,120
I've. 
Been thinking about that a lot 

401
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:31,120
is if if Bitcoin does do the run
to 150 a 160 where does ETH go? 

402
00:22:31,120 --> 00:22:36,120
I mean 4000 feels like the the 
base or maybe even the bear case

403
00:22:36,120 --> 00:22:39,040
there I I don't know. 
That would be bearish for ETH. 

404
00:22:39,120 --> 00:22:41,600
It doesn't get hit 4K at that 
level right? 

405
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:44,120
Particularly now that it has 
narrative. 

406
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:47,880
Well, it would be bearish, but 
it would be basically holding 

407
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,440
the current ETH Bitcoin ratio, 
right? 

408
00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:56,000
Yeah, 4 to the one. 
So you you would need that would

409
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,520
be a them tracking in line just 
quickly. 

410
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:04,280
I want to go deeper down and we 
have CPI tomorrow. 

411
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:08,440
I think Wiz Wizzo Soho, one of 
the the louder bears on on the 

412
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:10,120
time. 
He's telling everyone to de risk

413
00:23:10,120 --> 00:23:14,320
in the CPI. 
You think we'll see wider DE 

414
00:23:14,360 --> 00:23:20,680
risking? 
Can Wiz de risking more or can 

415
00:23:20,680 --> 00:23:22,920
he? 
Do you want to have any risk or?

416
00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:27,080
I don't think you should be with
the right points. 

417
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,120
I don't think you should be 
different in CPI. 

418
00:23:29,120 --> 00:23:31,400
If you've been buying things, 
waiting for an old coin season, 

419
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,960
I think you have to really 
evaluate what you earn. 

420
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:37,000
I think runners will run. 
I don't think this is going to 

421
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:42,640
be the chance for you to get out
or, or like there has to be a 

422
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,680
good narrative here for it to 
continue. 

423
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:49,080
I don't think it's going to be 
like it was in December or or 

424
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,160
November. 
I really don't this time. 

425
00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:55,560
I think it's going to be bit 
more of a selective rally if, if

426
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,600
this market felt like thousands 
of people coming in and asking 

427
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:01,760
me like, which coin should we 
owe like hitting the news, but 

428
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:04,200
it doesn't, it feels like we're 
hitting all time highs because 

429
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:09,120
of institutional adoption of 
Bitcoin and and potentially 

430
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,720
that's shifting a little bit 
more towards ETA as well. 

431
00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,440
That's not a world where like 
your friends are asking you 

432
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:18,160
which altcoin is going to 10X 
and you've got to play that, 

433
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:21,400
that hand. 
You know, remember when when 

434
00:24:21,480 --> 00:24:24,360
Bitcoin rallied because of all 
the ECF flows and we were like, 

435
00:24:24,360 --> 00:24:25,760
what the Hell's happening to our
altcoins? 

436
00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:29,080
It's because there's no buyers 
of those and we were all sitting

437
00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:32,400
here waiting for altcoins season
as Bitcoin rose and actually 

438
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:33,760
there's just no one coming in to
buy them. 

439
00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,560
We just put PvP ING it between 
ourselves and others went down 

440
00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:38,880
during that period, continued to
go down. 

441
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:42,320
I feel like it's a very similar 
sort of period here where, you 

442
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,040
know, I can see it for a man in 
minutes, like there's not 

443
00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:47,680
hundreds of new subscribers 
coming in each day and wanting 

444
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,320
to read the news better, right? 
It's it's pretty flat lined for 

445
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:52,800
the for the last couple of 
months. 

446
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:57,560
And that that tells me that that
this isn't a rally to like, go 

447
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:02,120
all in on some altcoin hype. 
Yeah, I think that's the right 

448
00:25:02,120 --> 00:25:05,080
read. 
Well, before we leave this topic

449
00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:08,560
entirely, Logan Curse, did you 
have a chance to dig into Paul 

450
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:11,880
Hackman's comments yesterday and
kind of why everyone's going to 

451
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,160
get up above that? 
The quick TLDR on this. 

452
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:18,440
Yeah, so I read the the remarks 
from Paul and there were some 

453
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,360
others from Commissioner 
Crenshaw as well that I think 

454
00:25:21,360 --> 00:25:24,640
you can read through on sec.gov 
if if you're looking to see the 

455
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:26,800
full remarks. 
You know, to be quite honest, I 

456
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,920
didn't think anything that he 
said was super, you know, 

457
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,720
enlightening He. 
But as Mando noted before, he 

458
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,680
kind of gives you just the sense
that like the previous regime 

459
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:41,360
was very hands on here and we're
going to sort of let, you know, 

460
00:25:41,360 --> 00:25:44,640
just let it be, you know, not, 
not in those words, of course, 

461
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:50,200
but it just, it makes it feel 
like the, you know, the 

462
00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:54,400
regulatory stuff that previously
hindered innovation, that 

463
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,560
previously scared people from 
trying new things or from 

464
00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,440
whatever the case may be. 
Like those, those shackles are 

465
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,480
kind of off. 
I, I think at the very end, one 

466
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:05,040
of the things that stuck out to 
me is that there there's mention

467
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:07,640
of like an innovation exemption 
and things like that. 

468
00:26:07,800 --> 00:26:12,240
That's just, that's exciting to 
me because you, you feel like 

469
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:14,160
these opportunities, 
particularly in the United 

470
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,120
States for a really long time 
have just been like, you know 

471
00:26:17,120 --> 00:26:18,520
what? 
We can't really push the 

472
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:21,200
envelope too much because we 
don't want to bring on any 

473
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:25,200
scrutiny from anyone else. 
And with this administration and

474
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,720
the, you know, the crypto task 
force and all, you know, Gensler

475
00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:32,800
being gone, it's just been like,
hey, go out and see what happens

476
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,400
and we'll evaluate when it 
happens, you know what I mean? 

477
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:37,200
And that that's sort of what I 
got from it. 

478
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,320
I know that of that innovation 
exemption right there at the 

479
00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,120
top. 
I don't know what else to say. 

480
00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,720
I encourage people to read it 
for themselves if they want to 

481
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:48,080
pull out specifics. 
To me, it just felt more of like

482
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,920
kind of like a reassurance that 
like, you know, we are going to 

483
00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:54,320
stay true to this path that's 
been we've been going down for 

484
00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,920
the last few months, which is 
that, you know, you are OK to 

485
00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,200
innovate, you are OK to try 
things, you are OK whatever, you

486
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,560
know, doesn't mean crime season 
or anything like that hopefully.

487
00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,960
But it, you know, just means 
like people that want to 

488
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:09,440
actually build and create in 
this new financial ecosystem can

489
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:13,080
do so without fear. 
Yeah. 

490
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:18,000
Tyler, can I ask you this 
because maybe I know what, what 

491
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,440
do you think happens next 
administration? 

492
00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:25,040
Let's say the Democrats won. 
Let's say we get AOC coming in. 

493
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,440
President AOC, do you think all 
of this gets brought back? 

494
00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,680
That's what kind of slightly 
worries me about this. 

495
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:37,280
Is it like I'm just although I'm
super bullish about this whole 

496
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:40,400
Trump like that, that, you know,
we're getting a lot going and go

497
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,240
quite far. 
Do you think that like this 

498
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:44,680
could all backfire when it comes
to like the next presidency that

499
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,000
like they actually come down 
very heavy-handed because of 

500
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:51,960
like maybe some of the perceived
grifting that's gone on and I'm 

501
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:54,680
this whole like reassuring of 
crypto in the US. 

502
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,720
Is it just, is this just going 
to change in 2020, whatever it 

503
00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:02,440
is, 20/20/29? 
Is it next election or next 

504
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:05,520
president? 
I'd say it's been one of my 

505
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:10,160
bigger concerns, especially with
the the Trump family going 

506
00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:14,280
deeper and deeper. 
But what I will say is that if I

507
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:20,560
had to put odds on, I'd put 
Democrat chances below 30%. 

508
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:22,200
Wow. 
OK, maybe. 

509
00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:27,080
Maybe low below 25% so I I'm 
less concerned about it right 

510
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,920
now just because I don't see 
their path to victory. 

511
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,360
Yeah. 
There's a couple wild cards with

512
00:28:33,360 --> 00:28:35,960
if Elon spins up his own party, 
is that going to split the 

513
00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:37,960
Republican base? 
Like, yeah, it's like that's 

514
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,200
something. 
But Democratic leaders pretty 

515
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:42,960
terrible right now. 
They they haven't really, they 

516
00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:47,120
don't have much of A platform. 
You know, what they're doing 

517
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:50,840
with with the the migrant riots,
I think is, is not even being 

518
00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:55,280
very well received. 
I'm not concerned about. 

519
00:28:55,280 --> 00:28:58,000
But in this scenario where they 
do win, I think it's a very real

520
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:02,320
risk. 
Always supposed than you think 

521
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:07,360
these elections right so. 
Yeah, One thing I like to think 

522
00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:10,000
about, Tyler, not to cut you off
if you're forming a thought, 

523
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:15,240
there is like how much money was
spent by, you know, Coinbase and

524
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:19,880
others right in lobbying. 
And that was across political 

525
00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:23,320
lines, you know, not just not 
just red, but blue as well. 

526
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,760
So, you know, hopefully four 
years, the Trump stuff is the 

527
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:30,600
scariest part of the Trump 
personal enrichment is the 

528
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,600
scariest part for me. 
But perhaps in four years with 

529
00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:37,840
like actual regulatory 
frameworks that seem fair and 

530
00:29:37,840 --> 00:29:41,960
reasonable and maybe not so much
additional grifting if we can do

531
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,040
that, because it's only been, it
hasn't even been a year. 

532
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:48,240
It's been a lot, you know, my 
hope is that perhaps both 

533
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:52,840
parties are a little more, you 
know, level headed about crypto 

534
00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:56,920
and it's just, yeah, it's better
adopted and I don't know. 

535
00:29:56,960 --> 00:30:02,400
And then it becomes harder and 
less, I don't know, less desired

536
00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,800
to to get rid of. 
That's my hope. 

537
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,160
That's some hopeium. 
Another aspect is it, it feels 

538
00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:13,600
like maybe up until 24, going 
after the crypto folks felt like

539
00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,160
a niche, like OK, we're going to
be hard line stance against 

540
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:21,880
crypto still goes much more 
mainstream in the next 4 years. 

541
00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,200
Now, if you're walking back the 
regulation, if you're going on 

542
00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:30,360
attack, you're attacking a much 
wider group of people in the US 

543
00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:32,240
and maybe that's much less 
appetizing. 

544
00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:36,320
So I think it's a real risk. 
I think it's something that if 

545
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,640
we make big progress in the next
4 years, perhaps it we can take 

546
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,520
some of the risk off the table 
so. 

547
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:46,320
So you're just going to have to 
get so far in the next 4 years 

548
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:51,720
that it just doesn't reverse. 
Yeah, I just think that maybe 

549
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:55,040
even even in crypto, we should 
be kind of aware of this. 

550
00:30:55,240 --> 00:31:00,160
Like the point I make is really 
just that we're sowing the seeds

551
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:02,560
of the next bear market ahead of
the election. 

552
00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:07,640
If it's like, oh crap, we're 
going to get something like, I 

553
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:13,880
don't know if it's crime season 
and we get tokenization, which 

554
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,920
is, which is really just like 
securities and all this sort of 

555
00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:18,080
stuff. 
Like, do you think it's going to

556
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:23,400
in some ways it can really turn?
Yeah, political shift and then 

557
00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,600
all the corporate treasuries 
become. 

558
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:29,240
At the same time. 
Right, if that's the obvious 

559
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:34,200
their market pullback scenario 
that positions itself right now 

560
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:42,200
next to like the quantum 
computing FUD or concerns there.

561
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:46,360
So very valid, definitely worth 
keeping in mind. 

562
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,160
I, I want to go now down the 
risk curve a little bit. 

563
00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,160
Shouldn't won't be a huge 
surprise to, to a lot of our, 

564
00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,080
our listeners there. 
So we've been talking about the 

565
00:31:57,080 --> 00:32:03,360
bull case for ETH. 
If like what else is performing?

566
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:07,080
I think Mando mentioned this 
unit swap up 25% huge move. 

567
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:11,560
Are they at 19%? 
So those are two leading movers 

568
00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:15,680
in D5. 
We got to talk about SBX for a 

569
00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:18,880
bit. 
I think it's become, I mean, 

570
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:20,960
Pepe is the number one meme on 
ETH. 

571
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:28,000
It's at what 5 1/2 billion? 
But SPX is, I mean, it's all 

572
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,960
time high waiting room is open 
and electric right now. 

573
00:32:32,040 --> 00:32:34,320
It it's less than 10% off all 
time highs. 

574
00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:36,960
I believe we're right in that 
range. 

575
00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,120
And I mean, it's it's going 
parabolic. 

576
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,560
It doesn't look like it's going 
to slow down. 

577
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:44,920
It's got half the holders of 
fartcoin. 

578
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:51,520
Well, actually I take that back 
holder scan has it that 78,000, 

579
00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:55,560
but I didn't that actually might
be I'm not sure if that's across

580
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:58,080
chains, so I'll have to to look 
into that. 

581
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:02,040
But I guess where I was going is
it doesn't feel like nearly as 

582
00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:06,680
crowded of a trade or as public 
of a trade as far coin does 

583
00:33:06,960 --> 00:33:10,120
right now. 
I agree this is a pain trade. 

584
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:15,120
I actually genuinely believe 
that like this going higher, 

585
00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:19,200
people will be like crap, like I
bought the wrong one. 

586
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:22,640
Like no one's no one really. 
Like it's a it's very much still

587
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:27,280
a clique FBX, right? 
It's not like, Oh, we all love 

588
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:31,040
this is the funnest thing ever. 
Like it's just Murad and then 

589
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:35,040
some counts where I just kind of
like who are literally insane 

590
00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,000
about it. 
Like they will talk bull post 

591
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,200
everything, but they're not like
mainstream accounts. 

592
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,200
It's very much like just a 
community that loves SBX. 

593
00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:47,800
This is a prime like that was a 
good trait like this going high 

594
00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:49,360
is a pain trade. 
And the same way that ETH going 

595
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,040
high is a pain trade versus 
Saul, I think this is a pain 

596
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:57,760
trade versus Morgan Pepe. 
Right, I like these coins. 

597
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:03,280
I don't own any, but I, I, I 
really do like the sort of like 

598
00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,640
the movement coins, the sort of 
get behind the house coin, 

599
00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:08,080
flipping the housing market and 
stuff. 

600
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,600
I mean, it's just really 
difficult to create the like the

601
00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:15,000
type of community that's lasting
enough to get behind the thing, 

602
00:34:15,199 --> 00:34:17,920
you know, for more than like a 
week or two, right? 

603
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:20,600
Just cause the metas are so 
fast, like flipping the housing 

604
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,920
market. 
That's fun, but like you can't 

605
00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:26,760
just keep that up. 
They've kept it up, even if it 

606
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,639
is just Maraud and like two 
other people or whatever, like 

607
00:34:29,639 --> 00:34:32,080
they they've certainly kept up 
this, hey, we're going to flip 

608
00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:34,719
the stock market thing and I 
think people can get behind 

609
00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:36,719
that. 
And this is, you know, the price

610
00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:38,880
movement here recently is 
definitely evidence of that in 

611
00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:42,400
some way or another. 
So I'm I'm rooting for it. 

612
00:34:42,400 --> 00:34:45,880
I don't own any. 
I sort of like the Maraud is 

613
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,440
right stuff that's, you know, 
percolating on my feet a little 

614
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:50,920
bit. 
There's now a Maraud. 

615
00:34:51,159 --> 00:34:55,120
You know you were building out 
your list by hand, Tyler before 

616
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,400
on Deck Screener. 
There's now a Marauds Picks 

617
00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,760
category on Coin Gecko. 
Oh yeah. 

618
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,520
Yeah, you can see them all in 
one spot on Coin Gecko. 

619
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:07,280
So good for good for holders. 
It's still something that's kind

620
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:09,200
of like I'm interested in 
potentially owning it. 

621
00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:12,440
I don't know anything at this 
point in time, but I can totally

622
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:15,320
get behind the coins that sort 
of feel like they have some 

623
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:18,320
level of purpose. 
I think that might be easier to 

624
00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:22,120
drag new people in than just 
pure meme the the purpose coins 

625
00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:25,720
if you want to call them that. 
Yeah, I think that makes some 

626
00:35:25,720 --> 00:35:28,680
sense. 
There is now a pretty wide gap 

627
00:35:28,680 --> 00:35:32,000
between SPX and the other movers
on that Maraud list. 

628
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:34,520
I think the last time when SPX 
was at all time high previously 

629
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:38,320
MOG was also over a billion. 
So Mog's hanging out in 2nd at 

630
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:45,480
4:30, pop Cats at 380, Gigas at 
2:40, and the rest of the list 

631
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:48,720
has been pretty underperforming.
Has he abandoned these other 

632
00:35:48,720 --> 00:35:51,000
ones? 
I don't see many of his tweets, 

633
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:53,720
but the ones I do see are only 
about SPX. 

634
00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:59,440
That's a good question. 
I see much less chatter about 

635
00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:03,560
the overall Mirage list than 
just SPX. 

636
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:07,480
So it does feel like perhaps 
he's a little bit less on those 

637
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:08,920
and it feels like some of these 
other ones. 

638
00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:15,160
I don't really see the Retardio 
buzzword was everywhere last 

639
00:36:15,160 --> 00:36:17,080
year, right? 
Like I feel like I don't see it 

640
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:19,400
lock in. 
It's kind of not not really said

641
00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:23,480
nearly as much as it was. 
I still feel like giga is a 

642
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,760
strong one on this list, but 
these middle range ones like 

643
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:33,000
ticker Bitcoin, it's hard to get
behind like a 3X on that a poo. 

644
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:36,800
So the the rest of this list 
feeling a little bit weaker. 

645
00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:40,120
I think mog is still going to be
mog still got K money behind it.

646
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:44,280
If it starts to move, everyone's
going to start to rally behind 

647
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:47,800
that definitely, but I I don't 
know if it's going to be the 

648
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,880
whole Murad list moving this 
time around like it it was a 

649
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:52,360
lot. 
I mean we're already seeing that

650
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:54,520
with SBX basically at all time 
highs. 

651
00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:56,800
Some of the other movers. 
We talked about this a little 

652
00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:00,080
bit at the open, but man, hype 
has been incredibly strong. 

653
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:04,000
There was a pretty large cell 
wall at 40 and it smashed right 

654
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:06,480
through it. 
It was at 4150 earlier today. 

655
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:11,840
It's pulling back a bit now and 
I'm seeing louder and louder 

656
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:18,640
cries for like the move to 100 
or the move to 400 which would 

657
00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:22,800
put this thing at like Ethereum 
market cap if if the. 

658
00:37:22,800 --> 00:37:25,720
Move to 400. 
Did you say the move to 400? 

659
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:32,400
Yeah, 4/4 to 40 was the IT was 
the early move. 40 to 400 is the

660
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:35,040
next move. 
So that would put it at a $400 

661
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:40,360
billion FTV, which is bigger 
than Ethereum right now. 

662
00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:42,560
Logan, have you been falling the
hype trade? 

663
00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:46,160
Did you play in this much? 
Yeah, I mean, I'm still holding 

664
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:50,760
not the entire bag. 
I offloaded a little bit, some 

665
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:53,400
for tax loss harvesting or 
whatever. 

666
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:57,880
I don't even remember not 
holding as much as I wish I 

667
00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:00,560
would. 
I'm not like playing around in 

668
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,600
hyper EDM or stuff. 
I feel like that's something 

669
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:06,040
that maybe I'll kick myself. 
It's just difficult with like 

670
00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:10,200
summer being around and other 
things going on to dedicate 

671
00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:11,640
myself. 
Otherwise, I'm just kind of 

672
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,240
enjoying price go up alongside 
others. 

673
00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:18,360
It does feel, Mendo said it 
earlier. 

674
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:21,520
I mean it like it felt like this
was one of those coins. 

675
00:38:21,520 --> 00:38:24,600
If things are going to go up, 
this kind of felt like one of 

676
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:26,680
them. 
Same thing with Far Coin. 

677
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:30,000
And there's a handful of others 
that you can sort of, I don't 

678
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,880
know, just feels like there's 
some level of safety here built 

679
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,960
in. 
So yeah, I don't have too much 

680
00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,560
to say other than I mean, it 
just feels, it feels like a 

681
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:41,760
winner. 
Often times previous versions of

682
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:45,320
myself would just kind of like, 
you know, either I missed it or 

683
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:46,680
whatever. 
Like not pay too close 

684
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:48,640
attention. 
I'm trying to be better about 

685
00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:52,160
letting winners win, you know, 
and the same thing goes for like

686
00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:54,360
the Defy coins or anything like 
that. 

687
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:58,080
I think you just, you know, you 
just kind of focus on on the 

688
00:38:58,080 --> 00:38:59,880
winners that have established 
themselves thus far. 

689
00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:01,720
And you don't need to. 
You don't need to get too cute. 

690
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:06,040
It's definitely a FOMO. 
I think Max paying higher trade 

691
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:13,920
a bit as well, at least for me, 
just because you see so many 

692
00:39:13,920 --> 00:39:16,280
folks talking about. 
So every time it it pumps 5 

693
00:39:16,280 --> 00:39:20,000
percent 10% you've got the whole
timeline celebrating the new 

694
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:23,400
hype all time high. 
It feels somewhat safish, or at 

695
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:24,880
least it has. 
I mean, even these last two 

696
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:27,080
dips, right they're. 
More crowded. 

697
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:29,800
That's the one right about it. 
It's it's definitely more 

698
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:32,200
crowded at this stage. 
But I do think that the buybacks

699
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,240
are good versus the current 
market cap. 

700
00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:40,520
Yeah, they're good. 
I wanted to share the tweet that

701
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:42,480
I did earlier because I I 
actually put that before we went

702
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:45,400
live. 
I shared my screen. 

703
00:39:45,400 --> 00:39:53,760
I see can we do that? 
There we go. 

704
00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:57,640
So I just put how about 
etherizing isn't all concerned. 

705
00:39:57,960 --> 00:40:03,240
We have don't say that again. 
It ain't a parasite salon If he 

706
00:40:03,240 --> 00:40:05,320
runs all like everyone just 
hates this. 

707
00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:13,840
Isn't that just hilarious? 
Yeah, for what it's worth that 

708
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,440
again, think what you will of 
Arthur Hayes, but that is 

709
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:18,640
basically that was sort of his 
rationale. 

710
00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,480
He spoke to one of the members 
of our team at the crypt at 

711
00:40:21,480 --> 00:40:25,400
Bitcoin Las Vegas or whatever 
and said that it's the most 

712
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:27,720
hated L1. 
And when you know, you see a a 

713
00:40:27,920 --> 00:40:31,760
cycle turn a little, you want to
be in the most hated asset. 

714
00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,240
That would be ether. 
I I, I tend to agree. 

715
00:40:34,240 --> 00:40:36,840
I mean, it is. 
I can't think of anything else 

716
00:40:36,840 --> 00:40:39,120
people hate more at this point 
in time than ETH. 

717
00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:43,760
But those replies are hilarious 
to me like that. 

718
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:46,000
That tells you that there can be
a lot of pain here. 

719
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:52,240
I agree. 
I also just think like every 

720
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:55,560
like people are like 
misinterpreting all season a 

721
00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,520
bit. 
Like I don't think there's a 

722
00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:01,720
world where just ETH runs and 
like literally nothing else 

723
00:41:01,720 --> 00:41:03,680
runs, right? 
I think kind of like what you've

724
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:06,160
been pointing out is that there 
will be pockets about 

725
00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:09,760
performance, but don't expect 
like all the L ones to go up 

726
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:16,000
just because I still think that 
there's going to be like right 

727
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:23,160
1010 big movers on the board in 
that scenario. 

728
00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:26,200
I don't know, maybe maybe that's
my hoping I'm showing through. 

729
00:41:29,960 --> 00:41:32,760
It's hard for me to see just 
like a pure ether rally where 

730
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:36,000
where nothing else does, but 
we'll see maybe I'll I'll throw 

731
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:41,040
my comments in there and add to 
the to to all the responses on 

732
00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:41,480
this. 
It's. 

733
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:43,920
Funny, me and Obie have been 
going like a little bit, not 

734
00:41:43,920 --> 00:41:45,840
back and forth, but like we've 
been debating this a lot in the 

735
00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:49,360
in the in the back. 
And then I realized that 3030 

736
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:52,520
minutes before he'd put out a 
tweet being like, I believe in 

737
00:41:52,520 --> 00:41:54,160
all point season. 
So it looks like he just called 

738
00:41:54,160 --> 00:41:56,440
him out on the timeline, which 
is pretty funny. 

739
00:41:57,080 --> 00:42:01,920
That's perfect. 
Well, a quick shout out to to 

740
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:05,640
Obie and the the wrecked crew 
got to touch on this at least 

741
00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:07,000
briefly today. 
How about that? 

742
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:12,640
Rather, there's no top. 
There is no top this week. 

743
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:17,000
Discovery. 
This week there's always stuff 

744
00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:18,480
for these guys. 
They've crushing it. 

745
00:42:20,240 --> 00:42:22,640
I'm going to kind of group chat 
with tabs and no SF. 

746
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:24,600
And each week that is like, Oh 
my God, we got this. 

747
00:42:24,600 --> 00:42:28,600
We got this. 
Definitely. 

748
00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:30,440
Definitely a good time to be a 
rectal though. 

749
00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:33,160
Tyler, have you had the blue one
too? 

750
00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,400
Shipwrecked. 
And my my case is on the way. 

751
00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:38,520
I just got the. 
E-mail lucky, I know. 

752
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:41,440
Hopefully today or tomorrow. 
Cool. 

753
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:43,680
I'm excited to try that one, 
I've heard it's the best. 

754
00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:47,240
I know I missed the IT sold out.
I don't know what was happening 

755
00:42:47,240 --> 00:42:51,400
but I both I just like somehow 
missed the the apple in this 

756
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,720
last one work. 
Dumb. 

757
00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:58,360
I'm I'm going to call you out on
that briefly because I was 

758
00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:03,000
hosting a show when that the 
shipwreck launch went live and I

759
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:04,600
still was able to move. 
Where was I? 

760
00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:06,640
I I must have been doing 
something. 

761
00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:07,440
I don't know. 
Yeah. 

762
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:09,080
It's not an excuse. 
Not a good excuse. 

763
00:43:09,120 --> 00:43:11,800
Quickly I think it sold out in 
like, I don't know if man knows 

764
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:14,160
the exacts but yeah. 
It was 17 minutes. 

765
00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:15,400
You had to know it was 
happening. 

766
00:43:15,960 --> 00:43:19,840
Yeah, not, not a not a good 
excuse from my end, but I'm 

767
00:43:19,840 --> 00:43:23,120
eager to try the other flavors 
because I enjoyed the liquidated

768
00:43:23,120 --> 00:43:26,720
lime and I've been reckless for 
a while now, so. 

769
00:43:27,360 --> 00:43:30,160
Well, I'll, I'll save you some 
for your Chicagoland trip. 

770
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:32,600
Yeah. 
And hopefully in about a month 

771
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:34,920
I'll be out there, yeah. 
You're going to Chicago. 

772
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:39,760
Yeah, it's been a while since 
I've been I, I, I like a good 

773
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,240
Chicago summer day, so. 
Nice. 

774
00:43:42,600 --> 00:43:44,360
So you're doing a Are you going 
to meet Tyler? 

775
00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:48,480
Are you going out for drinks? 
Hopefully, hopefully he can 

776
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:50,560
spare some time away from the 
charts for me. 

777
00:43:50,560 --> 00:43:52,600
We'll see what's happening at 
that point. 

778
00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:54,760
No one. 
No one works harder than Tyler. 

779
00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:58,000
No one. 
We'll, we'll see how busy alt 

780
00:43:58,000 --> 00:43:59,920
season. 
If Mano's right and it's just 

781
00:43:59,920 --> 00:44:02,080
eats pumping, I'm just going to 
be I'll have a lot of free time 

782
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:05,280
on my hands. 
I don't think it's just eats to 

783
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:07,400
be clear, but I just think they 
don't think it's going to be a 

784
00:44:07,400 --> 00:44:09,680
broad based all coin season. 
I just think Bitcoin dominance 

785
00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:13,200
can come down and the big winner
is like eats plus high plus 

786
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:15,400
maybe. 
Are they a couple of others? 

787
00:44:15,400 --> 00:44:19,560
But like, I don't think this is 
Axrp Sui soul. 

788
00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:22,240
Everything just fucking goes. 
I don't think it's like that 

789
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:23,480
this time. 
I really don't. 

790
00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,600
Yeah, And I, for the record, I 
do agree with you there. 

791
00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:30,400
I think there's going to be 
another likely winner this 

792
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:33,920
summer. 
And that is our our beloved fart

793
00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:37,320
coin, which I woke up and it was
over $1.30 this morning, which 

794
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:41,080
was quite lovely to see. 
It was a pretty, I mean in 

795
00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:42,960
hindsight this was a big 
pullback. 

796
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:47,880
I get like $1.60 dollar 65 went 
all the way down to like the end

797
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:51,920
of the 80s. 
So basically a full 50% after 

798
00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:55,600
just a a massive run shook out a
lot of folks. 

799
00:44:56,800 --> 00:45:00,560
Now back to $1.25 chart looks 
great again. 

800
00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:03,440
We got Coinbase perps coming 
Thursday. 

801
00:45:03,680 --> 00:45:06,880
We think spot probably coming 
along with that, but we don't 

802
00:45:06,880 --> 00:45:11,560
know and still Robin Hood and 
Finance spot listings on the 

803
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:13,000
table. 
So it's a nice set up. 

804
00:45:13,720 --> 00:45:18,080
I think this one is going to 
continue to be a a strong horse 

805
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:22,800
this summer, especially if a 
Bitcoin follows that beloved M2 

806
00:45:22,800 --> 00:45:25,200
chart. 
Another interesting token to to 

807
00:45:25,200 --> 00:45:30,480
watch this summer launch coin. 
I think we we got to talk about 

808
00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:32,640
this a little bit talked about 
it yesterday. 

809
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:38,240
It's it's back to 200 million. 
The ecosystem has cooled off a 

810
00:45:38,240 --> 00:45:40,040
bit. 
The ecosystem was incredibly hot

811
00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:42,760
over the weekend. 
I think most of the ecosystem 

812
00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:46,160
tokens are read about down 10 to
30% on the day. 

813
00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:49,640
So certainly a pullback across 
the board except for launch. 

814
00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:54,440
But what was interesting the 
most to me on this one are 

815
00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:57,480
saying the folks starting to 
extrapolate the revenue numbers 

816
00:45:57,560 --> 00:46:00,520
again. 
And I think this is always one 

817
00:46:00,520 --> 00:46:03,280
of those things that's like 
tongue in cheek and and you 

818
00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:06,120
can't get too excited about a 
handful of weeks of revenue. 

819
00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:11,160
But the reason I bring this up 
is so lost coin has a fast 

820
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:16,320
start, crazy revenue numbers. 
It was a bubble, OK, you, you 

821
00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:18,720
can't extrapolate out a week of 
revenue numbers. 

822
00:46:18,720 --> 00:46:21,400
But now we're like a three to 
four weeks in. 

823
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:24,760
And the reality is more 
products, more tokens are 

824
00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:31,240
continuing to launch ongoing in 
this ecosystem and folks are 

825
00:46:31,240 --> 00:46:34,400
trading them. 
And the new meme sector on 

826
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:38,240
Solana is, is pretty dead like 
the, the appetite for new meme 

827
00:46:38,240 --> 00:46:40,320
trading talked about it 
yesterday. 

828
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:42,920
It's all PvP, There's really no 
appetite for it. 

829
00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:45,120
And but folks still want to 
trade. 

830
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:49,840
And I think it it is to the 
benefit of this launch coin 

831
00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:53,200
ecosystem. 
And I guess the point is, even 

832
00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:57,400
if you don't believe in it, even
if you think ICM is all just a 

833
00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:02,240
total vaporware, if, if there's 
trading action continued for 

834
00:47:02,240 --> 00:47:05,600
another weeks and months, like 
the, the revenue extrapolation 

835
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:09,160
becomes a much stronger pitch. 
And we've got the arena, the 

836
00:47:09,160 --> 00:47:13,560
star Arena protocol turning at 
250 million FTV yesterday. 

837
00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:17,960
And launch coin is certainly 
seeing a lot more action and 

838
00:47:17,960 --> 00:47:23,320
tension than that. 
So it was an interesting one to 

839
00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:25,640
me. 
And I think it's one that can't 

840
00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:29,240
be written off just yet. 
I think that's my that's my take

841
00:47:29,240 --> 00:47:31,400
away. 
I think it's really important 

842
00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:35,600
that the not to knock any 
products or founders or 

843
00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:38,440
protocols launching, but it's 
really important that not 

844
00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:40,600
everyone goes straight up 
immediately. 

845
00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:45,080
In my opinion. 
I like it just it, it was 

846
00:47:45,160 --> 00:47:47,920
obnoxious to start, right? 
It was just like all the manias 

847
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:50,760
and frenzies that transpire here
whenever there's a new meta. 

848
00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:54,120
It just, it does feel like, at 
least from my perspective, and 

849
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:57,920
I'm not actively really 
participating here, but it does 

850
00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:02,320
feel, I don't know, more stable,
more real, like more authentic 

851
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,920
than it did before. 
That's not to suggest the 

852
00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:09,040
products or protocols launching 
are legit or not at this point 

853
00:48:09,040 --> 00:48:11,520
in time. 
But at at least, you know, 

854
00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:15,720
perhaps a bit more due diligence
being given to, you know, not 

855
00:48:15,720 --> 00:48:19,120
just throwing shit at every 
single thing that launches you. 

856
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:21,920
You need that, you know, you 
need some losers, unfortunately,

857
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,920
for for this ecosystem to be 
like a real ecosystem. 

858
00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:28,160
So yeah, I think, I think it's 
good. 

859
00:48:28,240 --> 00:48:29,440
I think it's good. 
It's healthy. 

860
00:48:29,720 --> 00:48:31,440
You know, maybe that's the best 
way to characterize it, 

861
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:34,960
healthier than it was before. 
The bubble blew up incredibly 

862
00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:41,000
fast and it basically burst. 
But and now that they're 

863
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:43,960
starting to to rebuild, I mean, 
look at this like this price 

864
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:47,440
action like this was untradable.
Like this three day stretch 

865
00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:51,320
launch coin went from 10 million
to 350 million. 

866
00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:53,120
It's like that's just a FOMO 
trade. 

867
00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:56,760
You're just buying in just to 
catch the price action. 

868
00:48:57,880 --> 00:49:02,120
And then over the next two weeks
it, it went down 60%, but but 

869
00:49:02,120 --> 00:49:05,920
now it's going up a little bit 
more slowly at a more reasonable

870
00:49:05,920 --> 00:49:08,120
pace. 
And now it it's giving like an 

871
00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:10,200
entry where if you want to build
a position, you can actually do 

872
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:14,360
it and you can actually VCA in 
and, and buy dips and whatnot. 

873
00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:17,840
So I'm curious how this will 
continue to trend, but I think 

874
00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:23,240
it is the lost coin ecosystem is
much to the benefit of this meme

875
00:49:23,240 --> 00:49:26,560
meta slowing down the the new 
meme meta, so to speak. 

876
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:29,880
But of course, the caveat maybe 
the exception that proves the 

877
00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:34,960
rule verse coin it it's off my 
it's off my window here. 

878
00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:37,880
So this token launched on pump 
fun yesterday verse world. 

879
00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:41,880
It went to 1.1 billion in two 
hours. 

880
00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:46,160
What is it? 
It's like a metaverse game. 

881
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:54,440
And metaverse, it is a a 
metaverse play open to the 

882
00:49:54,440 --> 00:49:55,120
father. 
What is it? 

883
00:49:56,200 --> 00:49:57,320
How do they describe it 
themselves? 

884
00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:00,440
Consumer celebrities are seeking
new and innovative ways, 

885
00:50:00,600 --> 00:50:02,400
innovative ways to engage with 
each other. 

886
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:05,880
First of us kind of offer 
multiple real world use cases 

887
00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:08,240
and cover the full metaverse 
spectrum. 

888
00:50:09,680 --> 00:50:13,360
So they're they're pointing to 
their tech most performant 3D 

889
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:17,000
scanning studio, fastest growing
metaverse company in the Middle 

890
00:50:17,000 --> 00:50:27,600
East expertise and clients. 
That's the pitch. 

891
00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:32,760
I just I I'm not owe any of this
as I was once again instead of 

892
00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:36,120
tweeting about. 
Fastest growing metaverse 

893
00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:39,080
company in the Middle East? 
I think, I think we, I think we 

894
00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:43,320
found the reason. 
I I wrote about this at 700 

895
00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:45,440
million and then 15 minutes 
later than a million. 

896
00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:50,560
Of course it's lower. 
Now what's interesting, So one 

897
00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:52,760
like the reason this happened, 
this is massively bundled. 

898
00:50:53,800 --> 00:50:56,960
So if you look at I was looking 
at this yesterday, basically 

899
00:50:56,960 --> 00:51:01,520
it's like 9595% supply control 
95 to 96%. 

900
00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:05,240
So the market cap is more Oh 
yeah. 

901
00:51:05,240 --> 00:51:06,960
So I guess the market they're 
they're saying the market cap 

902
00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:09,600
here is 50 million. 
So it would have been 100 

903
00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:13,120
million at peak. 
I think that's even a little 

904
00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:17,000
high for, for for some of the, 
the way I see this horror 

905
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:20,040
distribution. 
So that's what is, that's what 

906
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:23,440
enabled it to go like this high 
because I mean, we haven't seen 

907
00:51:23,440 --> 00:51:27,280
tokens run the 30 million in a 
day lately, let alone a. 

908
00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:31,920
Billion, have you seen this 
other coin, this coin that Oh my

909
00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:33,280
God, I've been following it a 
little bit. 

910
00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:36,600
I forget the name of it, but 
like B check got me on it about 

911
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:40,160
this coin that just keeps on 
rallying and like no, and was 

912
00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:42,040
like this is. 
Kita KTI. 

913
00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:47,360
Yeah, this this thing which is 
like 100% feels like a scam. 

914
00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:53,760
It's like 1.7 billion and like 
no one really knows what it 

915
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:56,120
does. 
Apparently main net is coming 

916
00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:58,680
and like apparently the test net
came out the other day and 

917
00:51:58,680 --> 00:52:00,680
everyone was like this is just a
scam. 

918
00:52:02,240 --> 00:52:05,000
Yeah, it had this long 
consolidation period when it was

919
00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:08,800
in stealth mode and then it came
out of stealth mode, went from 

920
00:52:08,800 --> 00:52:14,880
100 million to 800 million in 10
days, chopped today. 

921
00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:17,200
What is this thing? 
Can we ever look? 

922
00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:20,080
Can we ever look? 
I'm, I'm not familiar with what 

923
00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:21,760
this I, I, so I've been 
following this. 

924
00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:24,760
It's been on my radar, most 
scalable blockchain in the 

925
00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:28,040
world. 
So it's going to be a fast. 10 

926
00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:35,320
million TTS. 
Built in, there's a lot of duty 

927
00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:39,120
on chain FX. 
Flexible rules engine first 

928
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:41,840
blockchain truly capable of 
supporting regulated. 

929
00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:43,760
Don't go on to their Facebook. 
Don't go on to their Facebook. 

930
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:46,520
Let's type in Keita. 
Let's see what people have been 

931
00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:52,160
saying. 
Money Lord, he's tweeting about 

932
00:52:52,160 --> 00:52:57,240
it. 
A lot of talk about price 

933
00:52:57,240 --> 00:53:00,680
action. 
MRGMRG I'm likely the first 

934
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:02,680
person ever to go on Keith to 
test net. 

935
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:06,480
TLDR is completely fake. 
The explorer is the versatile 

936
00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:10,400
vibe coded page for some posting
fake trending transaction data. 

937
00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:12,360
Let me just put it so you can 
find it. 

938
00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:20,000
Yeah, I saw that one. 
This is always interesting to 

939
00:53:20,000 --> 00:53:22,960
look at the ticker chats on on 
Twitter. 

940
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:25,800
Like how many people are 
actually talking about these 

941
00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:28,440
random ass tokens. 
It's it's pretty wild. 

942
00:53:29,720 --> 00:53:34,120
Rather, I, I, I kind of have 
this as a barbell strategy where

943
00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:39,360
I like, I like to, to to short 
trash this one at the same time 

944
00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:42,960
is like is dangerous. 
You can feel this one. 

945
00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:47,000
Something's going on here. 
Yeah, I'm with you. 

946
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:53,520
These are the tricky ones to to 
know how to short. 

947
00:53:53,520 --> 00:53:58,840
So Mixie was similar, right. 
So Mixie was the one that ran 

948
00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:02,240
super high. 
It was just grinding up every 

949
00:54:02,240 --> 00:54:06,920
day and like the founder, like 
it previously had multiple 9 

950
00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:13,080
figure companies. 
So like some of the like Lexapro

951
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:14,800
got behind it. 
It ran all the way to 100 

952
00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:17,200
million basically up only. 
And then they they had this 

953
00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:20,760
announcement yesterday that some
publicly traded company had been

954
00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:22,760
buying it. 
And like that was the 

955
00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:26,360
announcement it sold off 50%. 
And I think that was like a very

956
00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:29,880
sell the news of that. 
I think a lot of these tokens 

957
00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:34,280
have that kind of a play back on
like part of the Tibber. 

958
00:54:35,280 --> 00:54:39,040
OK, since it's it's it feels 
like it's some of the same 

959
00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:43,080
players of that key to trade. 
Tibber is another one where 

960
00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:45,720
folks, it's a lot of speculation
what this actually is. 

961
00:54:45,720 --> 00:54:48,080
No one really knows what it 
actually is. 

962
00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:53,360
There's a lot of curious just. 
Just pass them. 

963
00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:55,680
Yeah, just don't ask questions. 
All right? 

964
00:54:56,320 --> 00:54:59,000
This is this is the fastest 
growing blockchain in the Middle

965
00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:01,760
East. 
Don't ask questions. 

966
00:55:02,440 --> 00:55:07,000
So this thing is since April 
7th, it's gone from one and a 

967
00:55:07,000 --> 00:55:10,760
half million to 100 million 
basically in a straight line up 

968
00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:13,840
and it's still in stealth mode. 
So we'll see what happens when 

969
00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:18,480
it exits stealth mode run out of
time. 

970
00:55:18,480 --> 00:55:20,840
I'll quickly go around the horn 
on see. 

971
00:55:20,840 --> 00:55:22,760
Was there anything else we 
wanted to hit? 

972
00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:26,360
And those are the big ones. 
We had O Cap games, they 

973
00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:30,040
announced their three and a half
million dollar raise from 11 KX 

974
00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:32,040
and then Yuga Labs. 
That was an interesting twist. 

975
00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:34,600
So Spencer requires Moonbirds 
from Yuga. 

976
00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:41,360
Yuga invests in O Cap games, but
I think that was an exciting one

977
00:55:41,360 --> 00:55:44,640
that didn't he man. 
Tyler rushed. 

978
00:55:44,640 --> 00:55:47,320
Sorry. 
I'm sorry if you already spoke 

979
00:55:47,320 --> 00:55:51,640
about this because the news of 
the IP sale was last week, I 

980
00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:54,360
believe. 
Are you interested in a moon 

981
00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:58,080
bird at all? 
It's sort of got the, the pudgy 

982
00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:03,760
arc here in play, sort of, you 
know, disdain for the founding 

983
00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:08,320
team taken over by somebody 
who's, you know, beloved by the 

984
00:56:08,320 --> 00:56:10,840
community. 
I don't know. 

985
00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:17,200
I think that that they will be a
good longer term hold. 

986
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:21,200
They're 0.76 right now. 
I I think some of the reasons. 

987
00:56:21,520 --> 00:56:24,560
0.76. 
Yeah, I mean, some of the 

988
00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:28,080
reasons. 
Wow, I think they got a little 

989
00:56:28,080 --> 00:56:30,400
over. 
What he's doing right and he has

990
00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:34,000
a business. 
Sorry you got Tom. 

991
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:36,320
No. 
No, I, I, I totally agree. 

992
00:56:36,840 --> 00:56:40,080
Like he's a competent founder. 
He, he knows the space well. 

993
00:56:41,680 --> 00:56:44,520
I liked his message when we 
talked to him on last week's 

994
00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:46,080
show. 
But but also what I heard 

995
00:56:46,800 --> 00:56:52,960
between the Lions was don't rush
in, don't FOMO by this like 

996
00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:56,120
we're in for the long haul. 
We're going to spend time 

997
00:56:56,120 --> 00:56:59,840
building this out. 
So I didn't leave that interview

998
00:56:59,840 --> 00:57:03,760
saying I need to buy a Moonbird 
today, but I need to have them 

999
00:57:03,760 --> 00:57:07,560
on my shopping list. 
Yeah, yeah, it's interesting, 

1000
00:57:07,720 --> 00:57:11,480
you know, I haven't dug too deep
and I'm actually, you know, 

1001
00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:15,360
hoping to be able to reach out 
and and chat a little more with 

1002
00:57:15,360 --> 00:57:17,960
Tim or the team about what what 
are the plans? 

1003
00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:20,840
I have to listen to your you 
chat with him as well. 

1004
00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:25,880
But as I was thinking about it 
yesterday when I saw that news, 

1005
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:27,920
you know, and you guys 
willingness to participate 

1006
00:57:27,920 --> 00:57:32,120
alongside as well just gave me 
it gave me pudgy vibes. 

1007
00:57:32,320 --> 00:57:34,960
You know, not not just because 
of the connection, right, 

1008
00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:37,440
because obviously there's a 
connection between Spencer and 

1009
00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:41,400
and the pudgy Penguins 
ecosystem, but just the the arc 

1010
00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:45,640
of of of playing out. 
You know, the community really, 

1011
00:57:45,640 --> 00:57:49,720
really has that, you know, deep.
I don't want to use the word 

1012
00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:52,840
hatred, but you know, it almost 
gets there for for moon birds 

1013
00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:57,560
and proof. 
And now you narratively flip 

1014
00:57:57,560 --> 00:58:01,040
that on its head in terms of 
sentiment, in my opinion, you 

1015
00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:04,320
know, you you've put it in the 
hands of somebody who is revered

1016
00:58:04,320 --> 00:58:09,560
and, you know, well respected. 
You know, I didn't I didn't know

1017
00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:11,320
much about Luca when he took 
over pudgies. 

1018
00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:16,560
But like, you know, Spencer, I 
think community sentiment around

1019
00:58:16,560 --> 00:58:19,480
somebody that would be even 
bigger than like Luca taking 

1020
00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:20,880
over, right? 
You know what I mean? 

1021
00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:23,600
Maybe not, but that's just the 
way that I'm thinking of it. 

1022
00:58:23,600 --> 00:58:27,160
Perhaps just because I know 
others can, could comment if 

1023
00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:30,040
they were more, you know, aware 
of Luca when he took over but. 

1024
00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:33,480
Yeah, I think perhaps more well 
known, more more well liked, 

1025
00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:36,000
perhaps just on the gun. 
Not saying that Luca wasn't 

1026
00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:37,040
liked. 
I think he just perhaps was a 

1027
00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:39,760
little bit more of an unknown. 
Yeah, that's yeah, that's what I

1028
00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:42,640
mean. 
I think Bull K Spencer knows 

1029
00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:45,520
like these trading card games 
well, he's deep and managed 

1030
00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:46,960
together. 
He's already had success with O 

1031
00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:49,160
cap games. 
I think it's easy to project 

1032
00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:50,680
he'll continue to have that 
success. 

1033
00:58:51,240 --> 00:58:53,880
Remember told us if they held 
this long, I'm not selling now. 

1034
00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:57,960
They they helped through all of 
that, but they held on a 90 

1035
00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:02,480
percent, 99% drawdown. 
And now I got so I traded these.

1036
00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:05,560
It was the most fun trading 
weekend arguably of my life. 

1037
00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:09,120
I took three hours out. 
It was my birthday that Saturday

1038
00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:14,160
these launched and I just traded
them and I love these things. 

1039
00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:16,560
And then they're a historic part
of NFTS. 

1040
00:59:16,560 --> 00:59:20,280
They they, they've got that, you
know, built in lore as well. 

1041
00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:22,320
So I think there's stuff to be 
excited about. 

1042
00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:25,040
I just think it's a longer term 
play then like we need to go 

1043
00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:29,840
sweep the floor today. 
So that's my read. 

1044
00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:34,120
Other than that, I mean, 
Thruster announced their winding

1045
00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:35,920
down operations. 
I think we got glimpses of that 

1046
00:59:36,120 --> 00:59:39,600
perhaps a week or two ago, but 
just kind of another sign of the

1047
00:59:39,600 --> 00:59:45,360
times for the blast ecosystem. 
They're the primary protocol on 

1048
00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:49,680
blast. 
You don't think that like he's 

1049
00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:51,560
kind of throwing the towel a 
little bit quickly here. 

1050
00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:53,600
Like, do you not think like he's
a smart dude? 

1051
00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:56,440
Like he had, he had so many 
interesting things he could do. 

1052
00:59:57,080 --> 00:59:59,920
I feel as though, yeah, the 
points maybe he's dead, but can 

1053
00:59:59,920 --> 01:00:02,520
he not think of something else? 
Like get it going again? 

1054
01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:05,360
I guess Blow kind of died at the
same time, didn't it? 

1055
01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:12,160
This was I've been, I'm like 
hesitant to like flood blast 

1056
01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:14,440
just because I, I, I do have 
respect for Pac-Man. 

1057
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:17,120
I think he's a really smart guy.
Right, me too. 

1058
01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:19,880
But it's like what? 
Like what is going on? 

1059
01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:25,120
Like they brought in Zen to be 
on that, like communication or 

1060
01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:27,560
like leadership council. 
I think she's done with that. 

1061
01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:29,040
So like, what was the point of 
that? 

1062
01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:34,480
They're just hesitant focused on
the mobile app, but like there's

1063
01:00:34,480 --> 01:00:38,080
nothing else to do in the 
ecosystem. 

1064
01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:40,200
So like what what's the even Why
do you need a mobile app? 

1065
01:00:40,280 --> 01:00:43,000
I guess you can earn good yield 
on your blast stables. 

1066
01:00:45,320 --> 01:00:47,400
Yeah, it's it's been a bit of 
this point, but it's some some 

1067
01:00:47,400 --> 01:00:50,320
sort of blur. 
I mean blur had the lead like 

1068
01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:53,840
blur was the the the NFT 
marketplace. 

1069
01:00:53,840 --> 01:00:56,840
I was starting all my days 
looking at blur and now I'm back

1070
01:00:56,840 --> 01:01:03,640
to open C it's like. 
I think he's a smart guy. 

1071
01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:10,240
It'd be shame if he didn't come 
back and think of people have a 

1072
01:01:10,240 --> 01:01:11,880
flywheel and I think he can 
build 1. 

1073
01:01:12,360 --> 01:01:14,520
Like he just sort of person that
can build like a hyperlithic 

1074
01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:18,040
investor, you know what I mean? 
Like he knows what he's doing. 

1075
01:01:20,160 --> 01:01:24,320
Admittedly, I feel as though the
L2 was probably a misstep 

1076
01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:29,960
because he probably decided to 
do the L2 kind of at like just 

1077
01:01:30,400 --> 01:01:33,200
beyond the peak of L2. 
Let's all live in L2. 

1078
01:01:33,200 --> 01:01:36,080
And then it all kind of felt 
like that wasn't going to be the

1079
01:01:36,080 --> 01:01:40,640
trade anymore. 
The hyper liquid's come out and 

1080
01:01:40,640 --> 01:01:45,320
been like a one at like they 
could have made blur the I guess

1081
01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:47,040
they can't really do it with 
blur right, because they have 

1082
01:01:47,040 --> 01:01:49,600
the whole bridge. 
But you, you do think that 

1083
01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:51,800
there's a lot of things you 
could do with an L2, like if he 

1084
01:01:51,800 --> 01:01:54,800
made it a more centralized L2, 
same way that hyper liquid is 

1085
01:01:54,800 --> 01:01:59,720
basically just a centralized L2 
or L3 even, or is it L1 now? 

1086
01:01:59,720 --> 01:02:02,520
I'm always kind of confused 
because you get there, but like 

1087
01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:06,840
people get an L1 and then like 
can someone explain that to me? 

1088
01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:09,320
Actually, like I'd love in the 
comments someone explains to me 

1089
01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:10,960
what is going on with Hyper 
Liquid Liquid. 

1090
01:02:10,960 --> 01:02:13,320
Whatever I look at it, I'm like,
I guess I have to bridge the 

1091
01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:15,400
arbitrary, which you put money 
on Hyper Liquid. 

1092
01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:21,400
People think it's an L1 and yet 
people say it's also like an 

1093
01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:23,440
arbitrary chain. 
It's like where? 

1094
01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:28,120
Where are we on that? 
Anyone wanna know where we are 

1095
01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:30,040
in that one? 
Yeah, I don't have the answer. 

1096
01:02:30,040 --> 01:02:32,400
I'll be looking to the comments 
myself it. 

1097
01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:34,440
Sounds way cooler if it's an L1 
right? 

1098
01:02:35,040 --> 01:02:38,440
But is it? 
From evaluation I think L1 is 

1099
01:02:38,440 --> 01:02:43,800
stronger pitch than L3, but I 
agree with. 

1100
01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:48,160
L. 3 rooting Pac-Man on it. 
I hope he figures something out.

1101
01:02:48,360 --> 01:02:52,360
I think he's a brilliant guy. 
This space be better with him. 

1102
01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:56,080
Billy, maybe he's done with it 
and maybe being a crypto founder

1103
01:02:56,080 --> 01:02:58,720
isn't that fun. 
I can understand it's tough. 

1104
01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:03,800
I can understand maybe there is 
not taken so well. 

1105
01:03:04,200 --> 01:03:08,160
I'm actually surprised that like
yeah, I just I just feel like he

1106
01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:09,640
could come back. 
I feel like he could have an 

1107
01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:13,560
Andre Kanye, like researchers, 
you know, like, oh, he's back 

1108
01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:17,120
and he's built this and. 
If if he did, I think people 

1109
01:03:17,120 --> 01:03:19,480
would flock to him. 
Of course they would. 

1110
01:03:19,760 --> 01:03:20,360
Yeah. 
Is he? 

1111
01:03:20,520 --> 01:03:22,920
Like, they know he can build. 
They know he's a smart guy. 

1112
01:03:22,920 --> 01:03:25,560
It's just like he he just made 
some missteps it seems. 

1113
01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:28,320
Yeah, I think the the difficult 
part is he's got to like be able

1114
01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:32,360
to thread a needle now where 
he's not just creating like a 

1115
01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:35,800
Ponzi thing, right? 
Because there's some, some 

1116
01:03:35,800 --> 01:03:38,680
skepticism around the, the 
products now that he's built 

1117
01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:42,400
thus far, not perhaps around him
and his ability to build them, 

1118
01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:46,520
but just some like, you know, at
least from my perspective, like 

1119
01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:49,840
there's a little bit of 
skepticism about what would 

1120
01:03:49,840 --> 01:03:52,520
come. 
And, and I think you have to, to

1121
01:03:52,520 --> 01:03:55,760
keep that reputation high, you 
have to avoid like a super clear

1122
01:03:55,760 --> 01:03:59,080
Ponzi type thing, which of 
course the space lends itself 

1123
01:03:59,080 --> 01:04:01,520
to. 
I agree, I agree, but I think 

1124
01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:05,120
you you can create, you know the
new word for for Ponzi, it's 

1125
01:04:05,120 --> 01:04:06,680
flywheel Logan, if you have a 
nice. 

1126
01:04:08,120 --> 01:04:09,920
Flywheel. 
OK, you should definitely 

1127
01:04:10,120 --> 01:04:12,880
flywheel. 
Did you see those generated 

1128
01:04:13,040 --> 01:04:15,040
girls talking about what should 
Passion Act do? 

1129
01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:16,960
Probably some of my favorite 
video content. 

1130
01:04:18,320 --> 01:04:24,960
Yeah. 
Of 2025 feels like I agree. 

1131
01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:28,760
Move on from the from the from 
the Ponzi to the flywheel and 

1132
01:04:28,760 --> 01:04:30,480
that's work out. 
You wanted what you want to do 

1133
01:04:30,480 --> 01:04:32,600
here? 
Yeah, OK. 

1134
01:04:33,360 --> 01:04:36,480
If you're listening flywheel. 
Flywheel. 

1135
01:04:37,600 --> 01:04:39,400
Give us the flywheel. 
All right folks, that is a good 

1136
01:04:39,400 --> 01:04:42,280
way to end today's show. 
We went about 10 minutes over, 

1137
01:04:42,280 --> 01:04:45,200
but it was a fun conversation. 
Want to thank all of our 

1138
01:04:45,200 --> 01:04:46,720
listeners for joining us. 
Want to thank our partners? 

1139
01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:49,760
Want to thank my Co host. 
We'll be back tomorrow at 10:00 

1140
01:04:49,760 --> 01:04:52,040
AM Eastern. 
I believe Stats the Man, the 

1141
01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:54,400
Legend will be joining us for 
that show as well. 

1142
01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:56,560
Until then, go make it a 
beautiful day. 

1143
01:04:56,840 --> 01:04:57,120
Goodbye.
