1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:06,440
We saw Bitcoin hit a high of 
nearly 72 K and then wicked all 

2
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:11,200
the way back down to 68 1/2. 
It looks like bit of a Darth 

3
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,080
Maul candle right there and 
we're now hanging out around 

4
00:00:14,080 --> 00:00:15,720
70K, which is what we saw at the
day. 

5
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:19,480
Few headlines to get through 
just being our staff. 

6
00:00:19,480 --> 00:00:22,880
So it'll probably be a bit more 
quick for us today just by the 

7
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:27,040
nature of these conversations. 
But we're going to have a guest 

8
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:29,960
later of which OSF is right in 
the hoodie of right now when you

9
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:32,119
can you stand up and and we can 
see that. 

10
00:00:32,119 --> 00:00:33,800
Do you? 
Want to do it now or do you want

11
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:36,000
to save it for like the? 
Oh, maybe we'll have a big 

12
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:40,080
reveal later. 
Today's show partner is merch or

13
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:43,400
Mama merch. 
I'm thought, thought, unsure how

14
00:00:43,400 --> 00:00:45,360
to say that I think we're going 
to be corrected when they come 

15
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,760
on the show. 
But yeah, my my hoodie got lost 

16
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:52,320
in Portuguese customs. 
OSF appears to have have got 

17
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:54,560
his. 
Anyway, let's get straight into 

18
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:57,480
stuff. 
Bit of a volatile day. 

19
00:00:57,520 --> 00:01:01,560
The the headline that came out 
just before we went live was 

20
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:08,480
that the ongoing court case 
between Coinbase and the SEC is 

21
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:10,840
not going to be thrown out. 
Remember this is a court case 

22
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:16,640
which basically started I think 
summer of last year and then 

23
00:01:17,240 --> 00:01:19,920
they I think they had some 
hearings with the judges back in

24
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:26,320
January and there was some there
was some idea that this may get 

25
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:33,320
may get thrown out it's it's now
been partially thrown out So it 

26
00:01:33,320 --> 00:01:35,840
looks like let me just bring it 
up. 

27
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,600
It looks like part of the case 
which was there was a case 

28
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,240
against Coinbase wallet and 
there was a case against 

29
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,040
Coinbase. 
It seems like the case against 

30
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:47,560
Coinbase Coinbase wallet has 
been thrown out, but the one 

31
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,920
against Coinbase and and staking
is going to continue. 

32
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:56,680
Your and my favorite, Fred or 
Adam Cochran came in hot with 

33
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,800
his take, which I thought was 
actually one of the better ones,

34
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:03,920
which is court serves SEC on 
motion to dismiss. 

35
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,560
This means the court case will 
proceed to the court case. 

36
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,440
While I'm a bit surprised at the
findings, this is not an 

37
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,840
indicator of how the actual 
court case will proceed that is 

38
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:12,600
true. 
To be clear, this has been 

39
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:17,040
expected that it wouldn't. 
It wouldn't be, or at least it 

40
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,480
was more likely that it wouldn't
get thrown out. 

41
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:22,920
At least the whole case wouldn't
get thrown out. 

42
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:24,800
So this isn't. 
This isn't particularly 

43
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:28,520
unexpected and doesn't mean that
they've they've been found 

44
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,400
guilty or anything like that 
just means that the court case 

45
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,080
can go forward. 
He does follow up by saying, 

46
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,880
although more importantly it did
side with Coinbase on the wallet

47
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,600
issue, deciding Coinbase wallet 
was not a broker, which I think 

48
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:42,200
is important here which is good 
and good for D5. 

49
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,400
The only, the only staking 
program stuff is proceeding, so 

50
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:50,760
staking within the CES, within 
Coinbase, that's the thing 

51
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,600
they're going to get taken to 
court from, he said. 

52
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:55,400
And I think this win is 
important. 

53
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:57,720
Can sex offer staking? 
Maybe not. 

54
00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:02,240
Can sex offer a embedded on 
chain wallet wrapping defy and 

55
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:03,960
doing staking on chain? 
Yes. 

56
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:08,840
So I actually think this is not 
so bad, but the market I think 

57
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:10,240
just panicked about it a little 
bit. 

58
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,960
But for me, I read this and go 
like right, well, you can 

59
00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:17,480
actually have staking by your 
own custodial wallet that's kind

60
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:18,520
of bullish for D5. 
What? 

61
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,160
What? 
What do you think here? 

62
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,720
Yeah, I think it's, it is 
bullish for D5. 

63
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,840
I think it is. 
I think I saw a few takes on 

64
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,960
Twitter talking about that. 
I think the important thing 

65
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,400
about this one is people I think
didn't really understand the 

66
00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,200
headline. 
Like Coinbase filed for a motion

67
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,160
to to dismiss the headline. 
It doesn't mean Coinbase lost to

68
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:42,400
the SEC to dismiss the case. 
It doesn't mean Coinbase have 

69
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,680
lost this case. 
It just means the case is still 

70
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,160
going to go ahead and still 
going to go to trial. 

71
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:50,280
So you know, it's yeah, like I 
guess if you're really hoping 

72
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,640
and pricing in that this case 
would be dismissed. 

73
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:54,600
It would to be honest with you, 
it would have been really, 

74
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,320
really bullish if that happened 
because it's just like fact the 

75
00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,400
SEC just have no legs to stand 
on right now. 

76
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,320
But this case will still go to 
trial. 

77
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,440
We just don't know who's going 
to win. 

78
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,360
But, you know, maybe this is an 
indication by the court that you

79
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,120
know, this will be a legitimate 
trial. 

80
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:11,880
Yeah I think it's it just says 
that they're going to go to 

81
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:14,120
trial. 
I I I still think that the 

82
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:15,520
Coinbase has got a good chance 
of winning. 

83
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:20,279
I remember I was reading things 
back in January by various 

84
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:25,520
different I guess lawyers you 
would say or or people who are 

85
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,040
familiar with the case. 
You said they didn't think it 

86
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,000
would get dismissed, but that it
would go to trial and and the 

87
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:32,880
SEC would probably lose because 
it's similar to other cases that

88
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:38,360
they brought and lost. 
So particularly particularly 

89
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,000
ones against exchanges in the 
past. 

90
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,960
So I don't know, but this when I
read about this Adam Cochrane 

91
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:47,920
thing that this could now 
basically clear the way for for 

92
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:51,760
D5I do think, I do think we will
rally on the back of that. 

93
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:53,520
I don't know. 
It's definitely not all 

94
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,680
negative. 
It was a very bad first headline

95
00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,040
which I think hit, which is 
basically that they had lost and

96
00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:02,000
then when you get into the 
nuances of it, it doesn't seem 

97
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:05,760
like a complete loss. 
In fact, it feels like 5050 here

98
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:09,840
and it's definitely not a 
finality that they've lost on 

99
00:05:09,840 --> 00:05:13,760
the on the actual case itself. 
So that's what caused us to go 

100
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:18,120
lower just then. 
We had had a pretty strong day 

101
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,760
before that. 
Like I said, just as the US went

102
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:27,360
live, we hit just just shy of 72
K there, which is a decent, a 

103
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:32,440
decent figure. 
Oh God, Let me just bring up the

104
00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:37,000
the right thing here and that 
was mainly on the back of the 

105
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,600
ETF headline. 
So we had a very decent day 

106
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:43,160
yesterday in the ETF, the most 
strong day I think we've had in 

107
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:48,240
a long, long, long time, right. 
Let me just bring up ETS 418 

108
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:52,880
million of inflows into DTS. 
So yesterday, interestingly the 

109
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:57,160
GBTC outflow really has begun to
slow down. 

110
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:02,200
But you also saw big big, big 
big inflows into the I bit into 

111
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:08,760
the Fidelity and Fidelity ETF. 
It kind of feels like this GBTC 

112
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:10,160
thing, they haven't got much 
left right. 

113
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:13,080
So we can start to look through 
that quite comfortably towards 

114
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:17,080
the end of the end of the week. 
Even this, even this headline 

115
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,240
for against Coinbase, is that 
really that negative for 

116
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:21,600
Bitcoin? 
It kind of feels like this. 

117
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,360
It's just still a decent 
environment where Bitcoin feels 

118
00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,840
like it could it could push 
towards all time high. 

119
00:06:26,840 --> 00:06:29,520
What do you think? 
Yeah, I agree. 

120
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,640
I think it's good to see a 
slowdown in the GBT. 

121
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,200
Yeah, the GBTC outflows, it's 
still large numbers. 

122
00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:37,960
You know, it's still 212 million
yesterday. 

123
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:39,320
That's not the lowest number 
this week. 

124
00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:42,520
So those numbers have been 
pretty consistent. 

125
00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:46,240
And the good thing about 
yesterday is we had some, some 

126
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:49,320
of the other ETS, but in some 
big numbers. 

127
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,840
So Fidelity for some big numbers
in the last couple of days. 

128
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:55,000
Arc had a decent number 
yesterday, so it's good like 

129
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:57,960
418,000,000 is a really big 
inflow number again and that 

130
00:06:57,960 --> 00:07:01,080
comes after a small number 
yesterday and then five days of 

131
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:02,960
consecutive outflows the the 
week before. 

132
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,280
So it's good and it's something 
definitely to get pulled up 

133
00:07:05,280 --> 00:07:09,400
about and we'll just have to see
how that progresses. 

134
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,440
I think like I think as you said
markets kind of misread the 

135
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:13,640
headline a little bit and sold 
off. 

136
00:07:13,640 --> 00:07:15,240
We've now bounced back pretty 
aggressively. 

137
00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:19,000
I think we've we're back lower 
again a little bit today so 

138
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:24,000
things will just continue to be 
to be can't fucking speak today 

139
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:29,360
will continue to be volatile and
I need, I need, I need Tom. 

140
00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:31,200
I know, man. 
I know. 

141
00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,840
I'm just tweeting out the FORL 
link for everyone here. 

142
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,120
You can just kind of see along. 
It's difficult when you have to 

143
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:38,480
speak so much, right? 
And it's just me and you. 

144
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,400
Yeah, Another thing worth noting
by the way is also Fidelity. 

145
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,440
We've also filed an S1 for or. 
They just found an S1 for the 

146
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:46,720
ETF application. 
So. 

147
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:49,960
Yeah. 
So that that is the first time 

148
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,520
they've we've seen any sort of 
movement from any of the major 

149
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:57,160
providers they, they they filed,
let me just bring it up. 

150
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,600
Yeah, and S. 
One father they father nineteen 

151
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,760
4B today and then they just 
filed the SS1. 

152
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,280
Oh, it seems to have been 
deleted, but yeah that that does

153
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,360
show some movement in the in the
ETF which is decent. 

154
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,880
We did have a slightly negative 
and a positive headline 

155
00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:14,720
yesterday which is the DOJ was 
coming after Q coin which is 

156
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:16,960
which is I would say a second 
tier exchange. 

157
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:19,680
They were based I think out of 
the Seychelles, right for a long

158
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:24,960
time and the DOJ came after them
for money laundering in 

159
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,440
alongside this TFTC. 
The interesting thing about this

160
00:08:28,840 --> 00:08:32,679
was the CFTC named ETH and 
Litecoin as commodities in that 

161
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,360
case. 
So a little bit of a land grab 

162
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,880
again by the CFTC. 
Obviously there's been a lot of 

163
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,520
wrestling here about whether ETH
is a security or not. 

164
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,680
I quite like the sack of tweet 
yesterday about, you know, this 

165
00:08:46,680 --> 00:08:50,360
isn't great because I think Q 
Coin saw, you know, 800 million 

166
00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,080
of outflows since that headline 
came out. 

167
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,640
But a few sex is getting sued in
exchange to the CFCC hammering 

168
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,480
down on it's these tokens are 
communities, not securities. 

169
00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:01,000
Get your shit together. 
Gary's stance. 

170
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,040
It's a fair trade. 
I kind of agree with that. 

171
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:06,280
If you if you have my own cue 
coin, maybe you're annoyed at 

172
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,200
the same time. 
This headline I think was 

173
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:13,440
broadly positive but it it still
felt as though it has not 

174
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,760
really. 
It's it's it's kind of in line. 

175
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:18,880
It's not. 
I haven't really seen any major 

176
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:22,960
outperformance by any of these 
over the last over the last 24 

177
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:27,080
hours. 
Looks like over the last 24 

178
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,000
hours is down slightly. 
So long is down kind of I guess 

179
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,960
B2 adjusted that's probably down
the most but bitcoins been the 

180
00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:34,800
one that's still been 
outperforming at least over the 

181
00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:41,160
last 24 hours. 
I I don't know like ETF it still

182
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:44,280
feels as though the base cases 
this isn't happening but we are 

183
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,320
starting to see more evidence 
that that you could have tail 

184
00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,360
events at this this could still 
go through the strongest one 

185
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,120
actually over the last 24 hours 
has been Doge mean coins again 

186
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,840
just having a very very strong 
period Doge going up towards its

187
00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,280
local high again. 
There's been a lot of positive 

188
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:04,360
sentiment about that. 
You obviously had had like with 

189
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,920
and some of the other Solana 
coins were hitting highs 

190
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:10,720
recently and Doge has kind of 
been quiet. 

191
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:14,000
But then it's taken over the 
last 24 hours I saw you, you 

192
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:19,120
hardly did a positive post by by
trade main right? 

193
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:24,440
Like, what do you think here? 
Yeah, I just think he's, he says

194
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,960
it's one of those. 
It's one of those things where 

195
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,720
like you, there's a few 
different trades out there where

196
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,240
people like this should happen 
this cycle. 

197
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:36,440
If if the cycle is what we think
it is, and one of them is Doge 

198
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,600
going to one another, 1-1, maybe
Bitcoin to 100K, another one 

199
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:42,960
might be like ETH to 5K, 
whatever it is, Salon to 300, 

200
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:45,760
whatever it is. 
Yeah, I thought that was an 

201
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,240
interesting one because he's 
talks about Doge going to 1 

202
00:10:48,560 --> 00:10:51,440
potentially this cycle, which is
a possibility. 

203
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:54,480
And then he brings up the 
question of like you know what 

204
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:59,360
happens with WIF because it's 
now one of the biggest and 

205
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:00,280
premier memes. 
He calls about it. 

206
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,800
It's definitely one of the 
biggest memes by market cap and 

207
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:04,480
it's the new meme. 
It's the one that's been only 

208
00:11:04,480 --> 00:11:07,080
been around for four months now 
or whatever it is. 

209
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:11,000
So it's an interesting point. 
It's like, you know, if Doge 

210
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:14,040
goes to like let's say it goes 
to 80 billion again or $100 

211
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,320
billion market cap, where does 
that put something like whiff 

212
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:19,120
and where does it put something 
like Pepe and all this other 

213
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,400
stuff they're? 
Getting very close, aren't they?

214
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:24,360
I thought handsome tweeting 
about it. 

215
00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,000
Obviously for over the last 70 
days. 

216
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:28,640
WIP is up another 50%. 
Pepe is up 10. 

217
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:31,080
Percent. 
They're now within. 

218
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:32,680
They're basically at the same 
level here. 

219
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:35,720
Yeah, they've been tracking the 
same level. 

220
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:38,080
Yeah. 
I guess that yesterday was a was

221
00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:39,680
a big move. 
Well, the last seven days 

222
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,560
there's been a big move. 
I think Whiff did flip Pepe like

223
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,280
momentarily a week, two weeks 
ago or so. 

224
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,960
But yeah, they're getting very 
close and if you flip Pepe, 

225
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:49,440
you're now the number three 
coin. 

226
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:52,920
Even without flipping Pepe, 
you're you're in the top 4 

227
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:55,600
coins. 
So, but it's the new coin as 

228
00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:56,880
well. 
So it's definitely we're on 

229
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,480
Solana. 
So which which has its own 

230
00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,920
narrative, like that's the 
thing, Doja is a certain change.

231
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,360
Shib is in the RC20, Pepe's in 
the RC20. 

232
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:08,400
I don't even know what Floki is.
I'm guessing it's an ERC 20, but

233
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:10,880
WIF is the one that's on Solana.
And I think Solana still has a 

234
00:12:10,880 --> 00:12:13,920
very strong narrative this year.
And you know, if Solana 

235
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:18,640
continues to outperform ETH this
cycle, does that mean soul memes

236
00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:22,520
outperform ETH memes the cycle? 
I don't think the answer is like

237
00:12:24,040 --> 00:12:26,960
that transitive or or that 
obvious or clear, but because 

238
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:31,600
it's definitely a strong, it's 
definitely a strong narrative, I

239
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,560
think. 
They're definitely taking up 

240
00:12:33,560 --> 00:12:35,920
most of. 
The Yeah, yours sincerely from a

241
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,200
from a whiff. 
Holder Yeah, exactly. 

242
00:12:38,680 --> 00:12:42,440
But you know they're still 
dominating all the top trades, 

243
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,360
at least on Chain at the moment.
We'll get into kind of what 

244
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:49,560
happened yesterday because I 
think some of the other 

245
00:12:49,560 --> 00:12:51,960
narratives which have been 
pushed recently are are Blast 

246
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:55,040
and and and BASE. 
BASE had had a strong meme coin 

247
00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,320
launch yesterday with the Roost 
it looks like Bruce went all the

248
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:00,080
way up to like $150 million 
month. 

249
00:13:00,560 --> 00:13:03,560
Well I could get that was a pre 
sale which did like a 10X or 

250
00:13:03,560 --> 00:13:07,560
something like that and then 
blast blast blast blast this is 

251
00:13:07,560 --> 00:13:09,520
quite a story over the last 24 
hours. 

252
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:16,440
So it looks as though Munchables
which was a which is kind of is 

253
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:22,240
like a defy gaming sort of play 
on on blast. 

254
00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,320
It's not something that I ever 
ever was involved in but they 

255
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,240
they got hacked. 
They got hacked actually by 

256
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,080
their their own dev. 
It looks like this looks like 

257
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,760
the dev actually was basically 
four different devs at the same 

258
00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:36,320
time which I thought was pretty 
funny based out of North Korea 

259
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:41,840
who took sixty. 
I think he upgraded the the the 

260
00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,600
the code and and took 63 million
of the treasury. 

261
00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,800
There was pandemonium yesterday 
when that happened. 

262
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:53,200
A lot of talk about we need to 
roll back the chain fork, 

263
00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:57,960
basically blast since before 
this export happened to try and 

264
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,440
protect everyone's funds, 
everyone was up in arms. 

265
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,800
And then in the end he just kind
of gave it back. 

266
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,760
I didn't really, I didn't really
follow. 

267
00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:08,240
That's not, that's not normally 
what happens with North Korean 

268
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:12,920
hacks here. 
So it did feel as though, yeah I

269
00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:17,040
was surprised but yeah yesterday
we saw Pac-Man come out and say 

270
00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:20,800
look 97,000,000 has been secured
in the multi stick by the blast 

271
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:22,400
Corps. 
Contributors took an incredible 

272
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:25,120
lift in the background by 
grateful the ex Munchables Dev 

273
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,960
opted to return all funds in the
end without any ransom required.

274
00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,440
He gave it all back because also
the money that I think Duke 

275
00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:35,360
Finance which is the lending 
protocol had a pool related to 

276
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:39,480
Munchables which which also was 
basically taken and it's it's 

277
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:43,800
all been given back. 
What's your view here on on, on 

278
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:47,360
on this did you firstly did you 
think he should have rolled it 

279
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:48,600
back? 
There was a lot of questions 

280
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,680
about whether this was 
decentralized or not, and I 

281
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:54,360
don't know my my answer was just
that I didn't really think 

282
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,080
anyone thought BLAST is 
decentralized. 

283
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:56,880
But what? 
What did? 

284
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:58,760
What did you think? 
Yeah, I think they should have 

285
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,480
rolled it back. 
I mean, don't forget ETH has a 

286
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,800
theorem is forked because there 
was this thing called the the 

287
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,000
Dow hack, I think back in 2016 
or where it was and that was to 

288
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,840
the tune of similar amount, I 
think 60 or 70 million. 

289
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,760
So you actually have Ethereum 
Classic and which is the 

290
00:15:15,760 --> 00:15:17,280
original Ethereum. 
And then you have ETH, which is 

291
00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:20,520
what it is now before before 
that happened. 

292
00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,120
So I do definitely think rolling
it back would have been the 

293
00:15:23,120 --> 00:15:24,280
right option. 
I think they found an even 

294
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,200
better solution, which was to 
get the guy to give back the 

295
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:29,080
money. 
But yeah, what a story. 

296
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,440
I mean that was just fucking 
mental, wasn't it, Zach? 

297
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,800
I mean Zach XPT really pulled 
through on this one. 

298
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:37,440
Like, he's like identified who 
the person is, said it's the 

299
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,120
same person showed where the 
funds are going. 

300
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,720
And the guy has to like, the 
thing about blast hacks, right? 

301
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,400
The guy you have to fucking 
bridge your blast, bridge your 

302
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:48,160
ETH back, which takes 14 days. 
So the guy must have been like, 

303
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:51,080
fuck, like I done this massive 
exploit, but now I have to 

304
00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:53,240
bridge back. 
It's going to take you 14 days 

305
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:57,200
and yeah. 
He's this is really worth. 

306
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:58,360
Is it? 
Am I really going to be able to 

307
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:03,560
pull this off? 
This reply Come in hot Zac XPT. 

308
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:07,120
I was like, whoa. 
Yeah, I've never seen him like 

309
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,080
that before. 
Came and clap back at the North 

310
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,480
Korean devs who basically stole 
the money. 

311
00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,400
Definitely came in hot. 
That's the hottest I've ever 

312
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,920
seen Zack get get. 
He normally gets. 

313
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:19,240
I mean, he gets kind of annoyed 
when people take advantage of 

314
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,760
him, but he definitely, 
definitely, crazily got that 

315
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:23,880
money back. 
A lot of people. 

316
00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:27,120
I think he even tipped him send 
him money because this was huge.

317
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:29,720
62,000,000 would be a massive 
hack. 

318
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,800
A massive hack. 
Huge hack. 

319
00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,840
Yeah, Blast we have this. 
We, I mean we had a conversation

320
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,120
in the background and we had 
this even this conversation on 

321
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,840
the show. 
My honest view is this, this is 

322
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:43,520
just the beginning for hacks on 
on on Blast and there's nothing 

323
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:47,080
against Blast. 
It's more that I think a lot of 

324
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:51,240
these protocols and new 
protocols, they were all fairly 

325
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,960
hurriedly pushed out at the same
time in order to get all the 

326
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:56,160
points and the gold and all this
sort of stuff. 

327
00:16:56,160 --> 00:17:02,360
So they all had to launch at the
same time and it's and often 

328
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,960
they haven't been on other 
chains, so like there was they 

329
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:06,800
obviously got nerve to their 
pronoun the chains. 

330
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:08,839
They haven't been really tested 
before. 

331
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:14,280
And to me it just means like if 
I was a hacker I'd be all over 

332
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,359
this ecosystem. 
Like it just feels like this is 

333
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,119
the place to be. 
Your point, which I completely 

334
00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,240
agree with too, is that you 
don't actually really need to. 

335
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:24,200
I mean you can do all the gold 
stuff and interact with all the 

336
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:26,640
protocols, but you can just kind
of chill and and still get 

337
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:29,640
points and and you obviously 
you're getting native yield. 

338
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,880
But yeah, what's your view on 
this about the BLAST ecosystem? 

339
00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:37,480
Because I think it is in some 
ways picking up pennies in front

340
00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:39,280
of a steamroller when you see 
this sort of stuff. 

341
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,080
Yeah, I just think people, you 
know, there's there's always 

342
00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:48,000
risks to this kind of stuff and 
something to remember, you know,

343
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,920
we always talk about not your 
keys, not your crypto, right. 

344
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,760
So as soon as you put your money
into a smart contract, which is 

345
00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,040
like whatever you know this 
Munchables thing was, it is a 

346
00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:58,080
smart contract where you you 
when you once you put it in 

347
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,720
there, you're no longer self 
custed custodying your crypto. 

348
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:05,120
Like if you put in your money 
into a smart contract to yield 

349
00:18:05,120 --> 00:18:08,480
farm or whatever it is, you will
no longer, you know, in control 

350
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,360
of it and you're at risk if that
gets exploited. 

351
00:18:10,360 --> 00:18:15,360
So you have to remember that it 
is a risk when you do that and 

352
00:18:15,360 --> 00:18:17,240
you have to factor those risks 
into what you're doing. 

353
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,760
And I think people just forget 
that sometimes because they just

354
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,120
feel like, oh, because it's 
still my decentralized wallet 

355
00:18:22,120 --> 00:18:23,520
that's interacting with it. 
I still own it. 

356
00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,640
But you don't actually own it. 
The smart contract owns it until

357
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,120
you retrieve your funds. 
So it's always going to be a 

358
00:18:28,120 --> 00:18:29,320
risk. 
And then you have to you know 

359
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:32,320
question like is it really worth
doing all the all these things 

360
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:36,800
to make money when you could 
just own spot like, you know 

361
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,280
fucking spot Bitcoin now right. 
Which is still going to give you

362
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:43,280
like massive you know, still 
giving you a great return or so 

363
00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:45,960
the other coins like, I just 
think there's so much better 

364
00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:50,480
risk upside downside in holding 
spot of good coins, even fucking

365
00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,080
meme coins because you know 
you're not going to get 

366
00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:54,480
compromised or exploited or 
anything like that. 

367
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,200
And the worst thing is like 
doing one of these like things 

368
00:18:57,200 --> 00:19:00,040
where you're trying to pick up 
yield here and there but you're 

369
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:02,520
not actually cost of doing your 
own crypto and then it gets 

370
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,760
exploited and then you're just 
like fuck, I I wasn't even doing

371
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:06,840
something with like a huge 
amount of return. 

372
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,600
But I just perceived it was safe
because I'm not like taking 

373
00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:13,840
price risk, but I took massive 
operational risk and yeah, and 

374
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,400
just got screwed basically. 
So I think that's just for me 

375
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:20,760
that's something that people are
not very good at assessing risk 

376
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:23,680
wise I think. 
Yeah, I think B Check put out a 

377
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:28,600
good tweet earlier, which is he 
thought I lost 12 Ethan 

378
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,160
Munchables. 
I've never been to an expensive 

379
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:33,400
Business School but I just 
thought I'd paid my tuition law.

380
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:35,440
Now it looks like funds are 
safe. 

381
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,440
Here are my reflections. 
Don't follow big accounts 

382
00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,360
necessarily. 
Size appropriately to risk 

383
00:19:39,360 --> 00:19:42,040
managed cornering individual and
blocking path out is not AW for 

384
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:45,520
decentralisation. 
He basically said this whole 

385
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:47,800
thing. 
I think everyone is is doing a 

386
00:19:47,800 --> 00:19:52,600
lot of experimental things on 
blast and I think unlike maybe 

387
00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:57,920
even other chains this is this 
is a more risky chain by nature 

388
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:00,320
you know like it is a lot of new
stuff. 

389
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,400
So just be aware of that. 
I'm not saying don't do it. 

390
00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:07,200
But this isn't, this is I think 
we're going to see a lot more of

391
00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:09,240
this. 
I I really, really, really do. 

392
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,800
But this is not going to be the 
the, the, the only time you see 

393
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:18,640
an exploit like this on BLAST 
and the the the concept of 

394
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,200
rolling back the chain. 
I think this was enough funds 

395
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:25,360
that they probably would, but if
you see an exploit for like I 

396
00:20:25,360 --> 00:20:28,680
would say less than 10 million, 
I don't think he'll be rolling 

397
00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,520
back anything. 
So don't assume that you know 

398
00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,440
there's a fail safe here for 
anything that isn't like a 

399
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:41,040
catastrophically big hack. 
Essentially, yeah, that's the 

400
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:42,280
thing. 
It's like, you know, once you do

401
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:45,160
it once, you kind of set a 
precedent for the future and you

402
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:48,400
can't just keep rolling it back.
So it's really good. 

403
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:52,200
It didn't have to go down that 
route and they were able to 

404
00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:56,160
solve this issue, but yeah. 
Yeah yeah so that was that was 

405
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,240
probably the biggest headline in
terms of even NFT stuff because 

406
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,480
it feels like a lot of NFT 
people are involved in blast 

407
00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,480
because obviously they're 
involved in blur and it's kind 

408
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,520
of moved on moved on to that. 
But it does it does still feel 

409
00:21:06,520 --> 00:21:12,440
like NF TS are are are a little 
bit quiet the the main the main 

410
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,080
activity has definitely been in 
mean coins. 

411
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:17,880
I saw most of the Solana mean 
coins are still appear to be 

412
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:20,360
doing well I think when hitting 
all time high that we said with 

413
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:24,000
is about to flip. 
Pepe I saw you saw the headline 

414
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:27,160
that the UK now is now going to 
come down hard on on me one of 

415
00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:33,440
the first jurisdictions to to 
really crack down on this and I 

416
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:35,520
don't know this kind of feels 
like we could see this from a 

417
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,320
bunch of different bunch of 
different countries. 

418
00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:42,120
The headline is the UK is 
regulating memes about crypto 

419
00:21:42,120 --> 00:21:46,720
and other investments to curb 
scams from influencers and I saw

420
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:48,640
you put a tweet about that that 
earlier. 

421
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:52,280
Do you want to make just give a 
like ATLDR what this is? 

422
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,880
Yeah, it's, it's sort of 
guidelines on promotions. 

423
00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:59,080
And in the UK you have something
called financial promotions. 

424
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,440
So if you're promoting a 
financial product, you have to 

425
00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:06,080
abide by certain things to get 
that promotional material out, 

426
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:09,480
which is usually things like 
mentioning the risks, you know, 

427
00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:13,080
not inducing FOMO and maybe not 
talking about future prices 

428
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:16,720
without having shown historical 
price action, all this kind of 

429
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:18,520
stuff. 
Basically if anyone has ever 

430
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,600
done the CFA or studied finance 
financial ethics, you'll be 

431
00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,560
familiar with a lot of these 
concepts. 

432
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:28,480
So what they're saying is, you 
know, that's historically 

433
00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,040
applied to it should really 
apply to anyone to be honest 

434
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:32,760
with you. 
But the focus has really been on

435
00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,800
companies and companies have to 
often seek regulator approval 

436
00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:37,920
before getting this 
communication out. 

437
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:40,920
I think what they've realised 
now in in recent times is 

438
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:44,400
obviously a lot of influencers 
are out there pumping and 

439
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,600
dumping crypto and saying crazy 
stuff. 

440
00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,400
And they're basically saying 
crypto could potentially be a 

441
00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:51,840
complicated financial product 
for which you would need to 

442
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:56,480
abide by the FCA rule book in 
terms of the communication that 

443
00:22:56,480 --> 00:22:59,400
you put out there. 
And which I think is fair. 

444
00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:01,280
Like it's it's it's good in a 
way, it's a good thing. 

445
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:06,120
It should protect people from 
you know buying rugs or pump and

446
00:23:06,120 --> 00:23:12,080
dumps and it creates a a higher 
standard for communication that 

447
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,280
people put out there, 
influencers put out there rather

448
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:17,360
than just like the shit that KSI
would tweet or whatever and then

449
00:23:17,360 --> 00:23:19,360
people go and buy it and then 
and the whole thing is down 

450
00:23:19,360 --> 00:23:21,960
100%. 
The the big question here is 

451
00:23:21,960 --> 00:23:24,960
like you know some of the 
articles and and the documents 

452
00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:29,040
allude to even influencers 
requiring FCA permission before 

453
00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,360
getting the communication out 
and if they're not authorized 

454
00:23:32,360 --> 00:23:35,520
people and that's the bit which 
is I I think to me a step too 

455
00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,560
far. 
Like you can't just stop all 

456
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:41,000
communication on crypto and just
have everyone, every single 

457
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:45,320
thing needs to be approved. 
But rather I think you should 

458
00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,440
make clear what's allowed and 
what's not allowed. 

459
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:50,480
And when someone breaks the 
rules, just like, you know, go 

460
00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:53,200
after them and and and give them
a fine or or a punishment. 

461
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:55,360
And I think that would do a much
better job at policing it, but 

462
00:23:55,360 --> 00:23:58,200
allowing for, you know, a little
bit of the freedom of speech 

463
00:23:58,200 --> 00:24:00,680
that we should have in crypto. 
Yeah, it's definitely 

464
00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:03,760
heavy-handed and they've been a 
bit heavy-handed recently. 

465
00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:07,800
A lot of crypto fans obviously 
left the UK a few months back 

466
00:24:07,800 --> 00:24:09,600
when they changed from their 
advertising laws and then this 

467
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,600
is the next thing which is about
meme coins. 

468
00:24:11,760 --> 00:24:15,280
I would be unsurprised if you 
start to see other other. 

469
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:18,800
I think largely meme coins have 
kind of escaped the concept of 

470
00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,520
regulation, right? 
Like even people that are just 

471
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:24,360
like, well, they're memes, you 
know, like they should have 

472
00:24:24,360 --> 00:24:28,760
their own value, but they have. 
This is the first sign I've seen

473
00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,960
since this meme coin mania that 
kind of start to see governments

474
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,000
start to move in. 
I I would be unsurprised if you 

475
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,400
saw stuff like this in the EU or
or other jurisdictions 

476
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:39,280
relatively soon. 
But they are. 

477
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:41,800
That wasn't that wasn't a a 
great headline. 

478
00:24:41,800 --> 00:24:46,240
I thought over the last over the
last 24 hours it doesn't feel 

479
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,240
like we are bouncing back here. 
I do, I do. 

480
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:53,040
I would be so unsurprised if we 
if we start to see Bitcoin go 

481
00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:56,080
back to 72 K There was a 
headline yesterday that that 

482
00:24:56,080 --> 00:25:00,480
hedge funds have been shorting 
crypto stocks the most kind of 

483
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:04,880
amongst the most ever. 
I think it's 11 billion of 

484
00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:09,800
crypto shorts on stocks like 
Micro Strategy, Coinbase and 

485
00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:12,560
some of the miners. 
So I it feels as though there's 

486
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:16,080
a short base back in in crypto 
right now where I think we 

487
00:25:16,080 --> 00:25:19,920
could, I think we could bounce 
even on on headlines, headlines 

488
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,680
like this. 
And then finally we saw that the

489
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,320
that the Hong Kong again has 
come a little bit closer in its 

490
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:32,160
step towards getting ETFs. 
So I think, I think yeah we're 

491
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:35,520
in a decent step. 
The the, the final point for 

492
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:38,040
NFTS which came out just before 
we went live was to do with the 

493
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,480
Zuki. 
Izuki had been rallying for, has

494
00:25:40,480 --> 00:25:44,760
been rallying for the last 
couple of that was done the 

495
00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:47,400
wrong way around. 
Anyway, the Izuki has been 

496
00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:49,000
rallying for the last couple of 
days. 

497
00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:54,680
We ended up with a situation 
where they announced today that 

498
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:58,320
there's going to be a chain, 
which I think was a rumour had 

499
00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:00,160
been coming coming for a long 
time. 

500
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:04,960
It is a chain called Anime Chain
and it's going to be on 

501
00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:07,720
Arbitron. 
We're excited to bring the anime

502
00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:10,800
industry on chain with Anime 
Coin and Arbitron with our anime

503
00:26:10,800 --> 00:26:13,520
productions, games and physical 
products who will showcase the 

504
00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:17,080
power of decentralized model for
growing IP on Anime chain. 

505
00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:22,400
That was all that was sent. 
I don't know if they oh they 

506
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,800
have a little bit here. 
So it looks like they're 

507
00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:26,360
basically going to be using it 
to build IP. 

508
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:31,520
I don't really know why it needs
to be its own chain, but what do

509
00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:34,240
you think here, this is this. 
I think this is basically been 

510
00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,480
leaked leaked for a while, but 
and what's happened to Ozuki 

511
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,440
since that headline came up? 
It's it's that it's, you know, 

512
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,080
it's so funny. 
It was like uploads the last two

513
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,240
or three days and then today 
it's just like down as people 

514
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,640
like dump their Ozukas into the 
the price section. 

515
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,360
It's just crazy how this 
information just gets out. 

516
00:26:52,360 --> 00:26:54,240
Yeah, are you Bullet on anime 
chain? 

517
00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:57,560
I like the idea of anime chain. 
You know, like I when someone 

518
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,360
told me Ozuki, you were doing a 
token and I went to go on there.

519
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,720
I just expected there to be like
some sort of random token as 

520
00:27:05,720 --> 00:27:06,840
part of like a game or 
something. 

521
00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,640
But then it's this whole thing 
called Anime Coin, which I 

522
00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,680
thought was interesting. 
Like, it's a cool idea. 

523
00:27:12,680 --> 00:27:16,280
I think I'm interested to see 
how it integrates into what 

524
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,280
they're doing. 
But it's something that was 

525
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,560
better than I would have 
expected Having you know, if the

526
00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:23,440
only information you gave me was
there's there's going to be an 

527
00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,760
Azuki coin. 
Yeah, I mean it it been rallying

528
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:28,920
like you said the last week. 
It is interesting that as soon 

529
00:27:28,920 --> 00:27:31,480
as that headline here everything
just got dumped. 

530
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,200
So clearly this was private 
trading, private private 

531
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,680
information beforehand and and 
then it's been leaked. 

532
00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:38,480
I mean I've even heard that this
might be happening. 

533
00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:43,600
So I'm sure people closer to 
Ozuki and I own 0 Ozuki. 

534
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:47,040
So I think people closer to that
situation would have would have 

535
00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:50,280
heard for sure. 
It's interesting to see it on 

536
00:27:50,280 --> 00:27:53,840
Arbitram actually. 
You know you had you had a, you 

537
00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:56,000
had Zion Arbitrary, which which 
obviously has done has done 

538
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:59,840
pretty well and now you have 
Azuki, which is you know whether

539
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:03,400
you like it or dislike it or are
looking at the price action it. 

540
00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:07,000
It has really been one of the 
largest NRT projects out there 

541
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,360
in the last two or three years 
and it's done a ton of volume. 

542
00:28:09,360 --> 00:28:12,600
So it's a really big project to 
go over onto Arbitrary. 

543
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,280
I think it's pretty, it's pretty
noteworthy of that. 

544
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:20,960
Well, Pete side chair came out 
and said the node sale met was 

545
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,080
only possible in arbitrary 
because of the bridge eats 

546
00:28:23,120 --> 00:28:24,960
totals. 
This is very important. 

547
00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,720
So the amount of eats on options
obviously very, very high. 

548
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:31,120
I think you saw Ether. 
I think it's cool. 

549
00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:35,840
They did a node sale. 
I think this is an Arbitron too.

550
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:40,280
And they sold like another 
hundreds of millions of of nodes

551
00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:45,440
essentially very recently. 
Obviously Zysoft sold all of its

552
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:48,840
nodes. 
I would be very unsurprised if 

553
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:52,440
this Suzuki plan involves them 
selling nodes, which is 

554
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:55,840
basically like token bags which 
are going to be, which are going

555
00:28:55,840 --> 00:29:00,840
to dilute over time and that's 
basically how they're going to 

556
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:04,360
do the anime chain. 
So it's just because Arbitrage 

557
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,920
has so much heat on it. 
Like not many of these other 

558
00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:10,800
chains can really actually 
support the idea they're going 

559
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:14,440
to do a massive heat sale. 
So I think that's where this is 

560
00:29:14,440 --> 00:29:16,040
headed. 
I think we're going to see a big

561
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:22,200
big EE node sale from from the 
from the anime chain is. 

562
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:27,240
It going to be a node sale thing
as well. 

563
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:29,960
Well, they didn't say that. 
They didn't say that. 

564
00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:32,800
But like this is very talent. 
This is put out, you know, just 

565
00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:35,360
after the announcement. 
Do you think, do you think Pete 

566
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:36,640
came up? 
Do you think Size Chat came up 

567
00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,000
with this himself? 
She's a genius. 

568
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:44,200
He's a complete genius. 
I mean, no cells have been so 

569
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:47,760
popular recently, right? 
Like, it's it's ever since I did

570
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:51,400
them and they were popular last 
cycle with gala and then zai did

571
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,800
them and obviously raised a few 
100 million. 

572
00:29:54,280 --> 00:29:56,800
Ether has now done them, raised 
a few 100 million. 

573
00:29:56,800 --> 00:30:00,920
If I'm sitting there as a zuki 
and you can make a pitch that 

574
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:05,080
they can sell a few 100 million 
of nodes, that's pretty 

575
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,360
appealing, right? 
If you're running the Azuki 

576
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:11,880
Azuki chain or you're part of 
the Azuki team. 

577
00:30:11,880 --> 00:30:14,280
So I think it's kind of a slam 
dunk what they're what they're 

578
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:17,320
going to plan to do here. 
Interesting like that was the 

579
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:19,800
only real NFC that saw decent 
body. 

580
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,840
Everything's a little bit lower.
There was, there was some 

581
00:30:22,840 --> 00:30:26,040
movement in sense, which is this
Bitcoin thing, which I'm only 

582
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:30,760
really just reading about now. 
And there was the, what's it 

583
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:35,800
called the there's a gladiator 
thing which is related to that, 

584
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,600
that that meant yesterday the 
gaming gladiators, which rallied

585
00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:41,720
on the back of that. 
But yeah, it's been relatively 

586
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:46,560
quiet again in new NFNFT stuff. 
There's still some interesting 

587
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:50,080
stories here, particularly ones 
I think around around airdrops, 

588
00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:53,400
which that's where you're seeing
the majority of like the, I 

589
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,280
know, positive momentum, 
positive volume, but even even 

590
00:30:56,280 --> 00:31:00,840
bitcoins, Bitcoin all took a 
little bit of a a a dip over the

591
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,600
last 24 hours. 
So still feels like the focus 

592
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,240
for now is on is on meme coins.
