1
00:00:00,620 --> 00:00:02,530
Well, good morning ladies and 
gentlemen. 

2
00:00:02,540 --> 00:00:05,620
Welcome to GM Web 3. 
This is going to be another 

3
00:00:05,630 --> 00:00:09,950
Mando takeover for Rock is on a 
on a private jet apparently on 

4
00:00:09,960 --> 00:00:13,830
its way to Marbella right now. 
So we have OSF who decides? 

5
00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:17,050
We have bananas tunes, The show 
began and we have Cows. 

6
00:00:17,060 --> 00:00:20,130
This is the full Canary Labs 
lineup right now. 

7
00:00:20,140 --> 00:00:22,510
This is basically like our 
morning meeting. 

8
00:00:23,250 --> 00:00:25,170
We're going to go through the 
top five things is kind of what 

9
00:00:25,180 --> 00:00:29,800
we were doing before. 
That was a CCI, don't know what 

10
00:00:29,810 --> 00:00:32,479
do you think it was indicate 
indication of girth. 

11
00:00:32,870 --> 00:00:37,280
Anyway, we are sponsored by 
Kraken NFT today. 

12
00:00:37,850 --> 00:00:39,520
They're obviously pushing show 
for a while. 

13
00:00:39,530 --> 00:00:42,400
Go check them out, 
cracking.com/radio. 

14
00:00:42,490 --> 00:00:44,370
They are doing their own NFT 
marketplace. 

15
00:00:44,380 --> 00:00:46,940
There are some news actually 
yesterday that they are also 

16
00:00:46,950 --> 00:00:48,200
going to move into stock 
trading. 

17
00:00:48,210 --> 00:00:52,590
So they are going to become the 
Robin Hood of crypto, which I 

18
00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:56,180
think is pretty cool. 
So stock trading, crypto trading

19
00:00:56,250 --> 00:00:58,760
and NFT trading you can do, you 
can do everything over a crack 

20
00:00:58,770 --> 00:01:01,680
and go check it out. 
We use them at Canary a lot, 

21
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:04,610
right? 
Should we get into things? 

22
00:01:06,100 --> 00:01:07,700
Obviously it's been a bit of a 
better day. 

23
00:01:07,710 --> 00:01:11,220
Today it looks, it looks like 
we've got some big green 

24
00:01:11,270 --> 00:01:17,720
candles, which is looking good. 
Bitcoin is sitting at just over 

25
00:01:17,730 --> 00:01:24,280
2600 right now, E at 1630. 
Everything's having a little bit

26
00:01:24,290 --> 00:01:28,300
of a little bit of a mini pump. 
Some of the some of the meme 

27
00:01:28,310 --> 00:01:30,380
coins, alt coins are having a 
bit of a move. 

28
00:01:30,420 --> 00:01:31,730
It didn't feel like that 
yesterday. 

29
00:01:32,660 --> 00:01:35,800
I think we had a bit of a pump 
in the morning. 

30
00:01:35,810 --> 00:01:37,770
They were doing the show. 
Everything sold off. 

31
00:01:38,100 --> 00:01:40,280
Just when Gensler was talking. 
We'll get straight into that. 

32
00:01:40,290 --> 00:01:41,940
So what? 
He actually said. 

33
00:01:42,660 --> 00:01:44,520
Honest. 
I think he looked kind of like 

34
00:01:44,530 --> 00:01:47,670
an idiot. 
Again, he went in front of. 

35
00:01:49,340 --> 00:01:50,610
He definitely got grilled this 
time. 

36
00:01:50,620 --> 00:01:55,070
So there was a bunch of 
senators, I believe, and 

37
00:01:55,110 --> 00:01:57,950
congressmen who basically 
grilled him for what he was 

38
00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:02,120
doing, saying he needs to come 
up with some more legislation. 

39
00:02:02,980 --> 00:02:05,470
He was grilled about, firstly, 
about whether Bitcoin was a 

40
00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:10,130
security. 
Um, he he kind of trying to 

41
00:02:10,139 --> 00:02:12,770
squirm out of it, but eventually
did say that Bitcoin is not a 

42
00:02:12,780 --> 00:02:15,450
security, but he wouldn't class 
it as a commodity. 

43
00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:20,730
He then went on to kind of say 
that tokenization of an asset 

44
00:02:20,780 --> 00:02:22,390
equals securitization of an 
asset. 

45
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:26,820
So he was asked is our Pokémon 
cards security? 

46
00:02:27,070 --> 00:02:29,840
Which he said no. 
And then he said our tokenized 

47
00:02:29,850 --> 00:02:33,180
Pokémon causes security. 
He basically indicated that they

48
00:02:33,190 --> 00:02:35,420
might be. 
So his view is basically that 

49
00:02:35,430 --> 00:02:38,460
tokenization equals 
securitization of any asset, 

50
00:02:38,530 --> 00:02:43,550
which seems kind of wild and. 
All over the place. 

51
00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:46,640
This logic is all over the place
here. 

52
00:02:46,850 --> 00:02:49,500
Have you have you seen this? 
Gary Gensler has an identical 

53
00:02:49,510 --> 00:02:54,750
twin brother, Robert Gensler. 
I thought it was like, I thought

54
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:56,580
it was a shit post. 
At first I thought this was like

55
00:02:56,590 --> 00:02:58,040
a deep fake. 
But it's true. 

56
00:02:58,090 --> 00:03:01,140
All of this is true. 
He has identical from brother 

57
00:03:01,150 --> 00:03:04,830
called Robert Gensler. 
This reminds me of, you know, 

58
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,990
like draw. 
He had his son working on the 

59
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:11,700
Bond desk in in Europe. 
Like he's really involved in the

60
00:03:11,710 --> 00:03:13,770
industry. 
I think it's pretty funny, but 

61
00:03:13,780 --> 00:03:16,950
yeah, Gensler. 
I think a recent photo. 

62
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:20,950
Is that how badly Garry's aged? 
Like that must that must be a. 

63
00:03:21,860 --> 00:03:24,900
Striking guess is not looking 
good. 

64
00:03:24,910 --> 00:03:27,100
Let's be honest, I don't think 
he's had a good few. 

65
00:03:27,150 --> 00:03:31,160
Give a few weeks. 
Good few months probably, given 

66
00:03:31,170 --> 00:03:34,390
how all his recent court cases 
have gone. 

67
00:03:35,260 --> 00:03:37,750
But yeah, what did you think? 
Firstly, let's get into the 

68
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:39,270
let's get into the most 
ridiculous thing. 

69
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,670
Is tokenization equal 
securitization? 

70
00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:46,550
Like if I owned any asset, let's
say I'm sitting in a room with a

71
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,590
TV and a lamp shade. 
If I tokenize the ownership of 

72
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:52,590
either of those things in a 
physical world, is that 

73
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,510
securitization? 
Do you think the asset itself 

74
00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:59,410
has to have some sort of 
intrinsic quality for it to, for

75
00:03:59,420 --> 00:04:02,010
it to be classed as a security 
in that world? 

76
00:04:02,300 --> 00:04:04,390
Or yeah, what do you think of 
this? 

77
00:04:05,590 --> 00:04:09,220
The the spirit of A. 
Security is to protect people 

78
00:04:09,710 --> 00:04:13,740
from protect people when they're
making investments. 

79
00:04:14,090 --> 00:04:16,600
So it's this idea of like a 
promise of a return or profit 

80
00:04:16,610 --> 00:04:18,200
share like et cetera, et cetera,
so. 

81
00:04:18,970 --> 00:04:22,390
Just like tokenizing any asset 
doesn't necessarily. 

82
00:04:23,100 --> 00:04:26,690
Deem that asset to necessarily 
be an investment, but then also 

83
00:04:26,700 --> 00:04:28,870
there's a question of like why 
would you buy it if you didn't 

84
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,910
think the price was gonna go up.
So it's a it's a bit of a grey 

85
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:37,200
area, like I think, like the act
of tokenization itself. 

86
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,520
Shouldn't make something a 
security, but then it probably 

87
00:04:41,530 --> 00:04:45,410
creates characteristics of that 
underlying asset that make it 

88
00:04:45,420 --> 00:04:48,350
very similar to security and 
make it open to. 

89
00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:52,940
A lot of the abuse that you see 
of things that aren't security, 

90
00:04:52,950 --> 00:04:56,600
that should be security, so I 
don't know as much. 

91
00:04:56,610 --> 00:04:59,870
Couldn't couldn't you argue that
any man made asset, any man made

92
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:03,930
asset essentially has some level
of work being done to it. 

93
00:05:04,620 --> 00:05:06,750
Buy a company. 
Let's say any asset made by a 

94
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,770
company of any sort and its 
value could go up like that. 

95
00:05:10,780 --> 00:05:15,100
Does makes any product made by a
company potentially a security? 

96
00:05:16,130 --> 00:05:19,060
I think his his his whole 
definition of it was around like

97
00:05:19,110 --> 00:05:24,020
expectation of return on the on 
the like effort of others which 

98
00:05:24,030 --> 00:05:27,440
he thought tokenization kind of 
encapsulated that effort. 

99
00:05:27,450 --> 00:05:30,900
But like people the company has 
gone to effort to make the 

100
00:05:30,910 --> 00:05:33,740
Pokémon cards in the 1st place. 
I think his like definition of 

101
00:05:33,750 --> 00:05:38,280
effort and where that's 
allocated is like very non 

102
00:05:38,290 --> 00:05:40,960
logical like this would 
definitely not hold up in a 

103
00:05:40,970 --> 00:05:42,320
court of law. 
There's no way. 

104
00:05:42,330 --> 00:05:46,500
In my mind he's just like anti 
tokenization and sees that as 

105
00:05:46,510 --> 00:05:50,080
kind of like. 
Creating hyper financialized 

106
00:05:50,090 --> 00:05:52,460
assets regardless of the 
underlying, I think and that's 

107
00:05:52,470 --> 00:05:55,580
why he's anti it. 
But the logic would not stand up

108
00:05:55,590 --> 00:05:58,340
in my mind. 
So maybe let's take it a step 

109
00:05:58,350 --> 00:06:01,040
further because yeah, I think 
you guys are really smart. 

110
00:06:01,130 --> 00:06:04,900
What would you say is because I 
agree with what you're saying 

111
00:06:04,910 --> 00:06:08,760
Cali, which is that you can't 
just tokenize everything man 

112
00:06:08,770 --> 00:06:11,600
made like crypto allows you to 
tokenize any asset like we 

113
00:06:11,610 --> 00:06:12,960
could. 
Technically if I want to have 

114
00:06:12,970 --> 00:06:17,200
exposure to TVs or I won't have 
exposed to any the value of any 

115
00:06:17,210 --> 00:06:20,460
of these things, I could 
essentially tokenize them and 

116
00:06:20,530 --> 00:06:23,960
that could be seen as like me 
owning that file like almost a 

117
00:06:23,970 --> 00:06:28,120
derivative ownership. 
Would you say is like? 

118
00:06:28,130 --> 00:06:33,050
Where do you draw the line on? 
This should be a security if 

119
00:06:33,060 --> 00:06:36,420
it's been tokenized. 
Because I agree with my work, 

120
00:06:36,430 --> 00:06:39,790
the idea of a company doing. 
Work equals not security. 

121
00:06:39,900 --> 00:06:42,710
It's not fit for purpose. 
I think it's the idea that the 

122
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,780
company is guaranteeing your 
cash flow or a share of profits 

123
00:06:45,790 --> 00:06:47,690
or something like that. 
That's what it has to be. 

124
00:06:47,730 --> 00:06:49,590
And that's what it was intended 
to be originally. 

125
00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:52,730
Yeah, because like the profiting
from the work of others is where

126
00:06:52,740 --> 00:06:56,290
you like, you know, you invest 
in a company and other people 

127
00:06:56,300 --> 00:06:59,560
work to grow that company and 
then it becomes worth more and 

128
00:06:59,570 --> 00:07:02,090
then you sell the shares. 
That's where the idea of that 

129
00:07:02,100 --> 00:07:05,150
comes from. 
Is from, like very early 

130
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,120
definitions. 
Around the structure like 

131
00:07:08,130 --> 00:07:12,020
corporate structure essentially.
And the corporate entity is not 

132
00:07:12,030 --> 00:07:14,640
fit for purpose on a 
tokenization of a single asset 

133
00:07:14,650 --> 00:07:16,900
and it's totally the wrong way 
about thinking about it. 

134
00:07:16,950 --> 00:07:19,940
I think it's all about cash 
flows personally, whether that's

135
00:07:19,950 --> 00:07:23,440
ongoing over the life of the 
asset or it's at the end of the 

136
00:07:23,450 --> 00:07:26,640
asset if somebody is saying we 
will guarantee it or we will. 

137
00:07:29,530 --> 00:07:32,260
Yeah. 
We're going to engage in some 

138
00:07:32,270 --> 00:07:36,280
enterprise to make the cash 
flows increase and you're going 

139
00:07:36,290 --> 00:07:38,290
to get money from it. 
And to me, that's what was a 

140
00:07:38,300 --> 00:07:40,810
good is. 
I agree. 

141
00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,930
I think, I think that's it. 
The Securitization Act, I don't 

142
00:07:43,940 --> 00:07:46,900
know when it was originally 
written, but it was like 1920 or

143
00:07:46,910 --> 00:07:49,030
whatever it is, it's completely 
outdated. 

144
00:07:49,180 --> 00:07:52,410
And now we're testing it because
we can now suddenly basically 

145
00:07:52,460 --> 00:07:55,960
allow for many different things 
to or the ownership of many 

146
00:07:55,970 --> 00:07:58,750
different things to trade more 
seamlessly with things like 

147
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:02,100
crypto. 
And I think it has to be some 

148
00:08:02,110 --> 00:08:04,390
sort of cash flow. 
Like if you're Pokémon cards 

149
00:08:05,010 --> 00:08:10,680
gave you access to revenue from 
the Pokémon Company, then that 

150
00:08:10,690 --> 00:08:14,930
would make it a security in my 
eyes like in some way. 

151
00:08:14,940 --> 00:08:19,370
But if it's just like just an 
item that is being created by a 

152
00:08:19,380 --> 00:08:23,270
company and that item might go 
up if the brand value of that 

153
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,630
company goes up, that's not a 
security in my eyes. 

154
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:29,410
And I think that's where he's 
he's just, he's just massively 

155
00:08:29,420 --> 00:08:32,000
overreaching and he just looks 
like an idiot like for doing it 

156
00:08:32,010 --> 00:08:33,230
like. 
So the idea that everything in 

157
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,120
the world should be a security 
and should be under the remit of

158
00:08:35,130 --> 00:08:38,900
the SEC is just wild. 
I think that was the main thing.

159
00:08:38,909 --> 00:08:40,850
I came away from me. 
He's just, you always say it 

160
00:08:40,860 --> 00:08:43,909
Cally, he's just power hungry. 
He's just, he's just lost his 

161
00:08:43,919 --> 00:08:46,990
head with where he thinks he 
should be able to have power. 

162
00:08:48,290 --> 00:08:50,700
How hungry. 
Bureaucrats overstepping their 

163
00:08:50,710 --> 00:08:54,080
remit is not anything new and 
probably gonna be around for a 

164
00:08:54,090 --> 00:08:57,200
while too. 
But so they'll be another one. 

165
00:08:57,210 --> 00:08:59,400
And they might be more friendly 
or less friendly and he'll go to

166
00:08:59,410 --> 00:09:01,850
some other stupid bureaucratic 
job, but. 

167
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,070
Yeah, we're doing a little mini 
pump here during the show, boys.

168
00:09:06,680 --> 00:09:10,820
Bitcoin looks like it's about to
head to 27 K If looks like it's 

169
00:09:10,830 --> 00:09:13,330
about to head to the 1645 and 
put on some levered trades 

170
00:09:13,340 --> 00:09:15,840
yesterday. 
Just thinking of beauty. 

171
00:09:15,850 --> 00:09:21,500
So things are looking good for 
crypto today. 

172
00:09:21,540 --> 00:09:24,900
There is a bit of happening 
across the board what you have 

173
00:09:24,910 --> 00:09:27,000
seen and we'll move on to the 
second point here which is 

174
00:09:27,010 --> 00:09:32,380
what's going on in the ETFs. 
So give it a bit of a broader 

175
00:09:32,390 --> 00:09:34,400
time. 
Yesterday there was a delay 

176
00:09:34,410 --> 00:09:36,180
again in some more of the 
Bitcoin spot ETF. 

177
00:09:36,190 --> 00:09:41,380
It now looks increasingly likely
that the ETH futures ETF, the 

178
00:09:41,390 --> 00:09:45,880
futures ETF will be trading next
week and kind of with the half 

179
00:09:45,890 --> 00:09:49,580
blessing of the SEC. 
They seem to be OK when it's a 

180
00:09:49,590 --> 00:09:53,160
derivative of something to be 
able to class, it's an ETF. 

181
00:09:53,170 --> 00:09:58,610
So if BTC is in, the ratio is 
actually reversed it looks like 

182
00:09:58,750 --> 00:10:00,860
over the short short term over 
the next week. 

183
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:05,130
So you're gonna get positive 
news here for for ETH if that 

184
00:10:05,140 --> 00:10:08,510
futures ETF trades. 
Remember a few TCF won't meet 

185
00:10:08,580 --> 00:10:11,370
won't mean buying up the spot, 
it won't mean you go out. 

186
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:15,330
There's gonna be massive buying 
of the spot contract because 

187
00:10:15,340 --> 00:10:17,390
obviously the features that 
stuff is levered. 

188
00:10:18,060 --> 00:10:22,510
So it probably is not going to 
be as people have said for the 

189
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:25,010
Bitcoin ETF, you're gonna see 
$20 billion move into this 

190
00:10:25,020 --> 00:10:29,110
industry with the futures ETF. 
But it does seem to show a bit 

191
00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:33,120
of a softening in the stance of 
the SEC, or at least their 

192
00:10:33,130 --> 00:10:35,680
ability to block this sort of 
stuff is becoming increasingly 

193
00:10:35,690 --> 00:10:39,450
incredulous. 
But yeah, that's a positive 

194
00:10:39,460 --> 00:10:41,530
thing and we seem to be bouncing
off it. 

195
00:10:41,540 --> 00:10:44,640
We've been outperforming for a 
while, like even in that set off

196
00:10:44,650 --> 00:10:48,020
yesterday we've been 
outperforming yesterday. 

197
00:10:48,030 --> 00:10:50,080
It really looked to look pretty 
bad. 

198
00:10:50,090 --> 00:10:57,710
I think bond yields hit 4.6% on 
10 year, oil is at 96 or Brent 

199
00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:02,240
was at 96 at least and then you 
had the dollar, I think it's 

200
00:11:02,250 --> 00:11:04,070
been up for 11 weeks straight. 
So we're having a bit of a 

201
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,910
reverse today and there's 
already been some positive news 

202
00:11:06,980 --> 00:11:09,550
about Bitcoin and ETH. 
So yeah, what do you think? 

203
00:11:09,560 --> 00:11:12,520
Do you think for the next, for 
the next month, is this going to

204
00:11:12,530 --> 00:11:15,030
be October? 
Is it is is October gonna be 

205
00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:20,150
happening next next month? 
It's, it's October. 

206
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:25,230
Yeah, it's. 
Most of 30%, isn't it? 

207
00:11:25,680 --> 00:11:27,570
Are we really trying to still 
pump those bags? 

208
00:11:29,100 --> 00:11:32,320
Just a slip of the tongue. 
There slip the slip of the 

209
00:11:32,330 --> 00:11:34,350
tongue. 
Ohh it was having. 

210
00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:35,640
A good day? 
No? 

211
00:11:35,650 --> 00:11:39,210
It was nice. 
Let him have it right. 

212
00:11:39,220 --> 00:11:42,280
Just let him have it. 
So definitely. 

213
00:11:42,290 --> 00:11:44,960
It's a. 
Matter that's down 300% the last

214
00:11:44,970 --> 00:11:48,240
few days. 
It's not. 60% today, alright 

215
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:51,540
man. 
Lots of these coins having to 

216
00:11:51,550 --> 00:11:53,970
move some of the some of the 
ones that were talked about for 

217
00:11:53,980 --> 00:12:00,940
a while local in ruin make. 
A welcoming this seems like the 

218
00:12:00,950 --> 00:12:04,960
most obvious short to me. 
Does that make myself like but 

219
00:12:04,970 --> 00:12:07,330
it's but it's been a bit of a 
short squeeze and they seem to 

220
00:12:07,340 --> 00:12:09,880
be signing up half of South 
America at the moment. 

221
00:12:09,890 --> 00:12:14,650
So crazy amount of adoption in 
certain geographies. 

222
00:12:14,660 --> 00:12:17,560
So I'm sure all those people are
gonna hold it forever and use it

223
00:12:17,570 --> 00:12:20,940
for useful things, not just dump
it for dollars. 

224
00:12:21,230 --> 00:12:29,620
But well, we can get into point 
#3, which is AI, and Sam Altman 

225
00:12:29,630 --> 00:12:32,390
obviously is the. 
Hallie loves the. 

226
00:12:36,380 --> 00:12:37,950
The most valuable nonprofit 
ever? 

227
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:41,290
Isn't it the most valuable 
nonprofit ever? 

228
00:12:41,340 --> 00:12:46,760
Elon Musk got destroyed anyway, 
Quite a lot of changes. 

229
00:12:46,770 --> 00:12:49,730
Well, quite a lot of news 
happening in the AI yesterday. 

230
00:12:51,390 --> 00:12:53,800
While a lot of the the major 
tech stocks were lower, 

231
00:12:53,810 --> 00:12:56,810
particularly Apple was lower, 
there was a rumour which seems 

232
00:12:56,820 --> 00:13:00,160
to be more than a rumour at Open
AI is looking to raise a billion

233
00:13:00,170 --> 00:13:07,070
dollars with SoftBank which is 
the go hard or go home tech VC 

234
00:13:07,240 --> 00:13:09,040
collapsing track records for 
those. 

235
00:13:10,560 --> 00:13:12,800
Of banking at the top. 
It's so classic. 

236
00:13:12,990 --> 00:13:16,840
Then they go, they're going in 
at I think the last valuation 

237
00:13:16,850 --> 00:13:21,660
for Open AI was 20 billion when 
Microsoft put in their money 20 

238
00:13:21,670 --> 00:13:23,940
or 30. 
SoftBank have going in at cool 

239
00:13:23,950 --> 00:13:26,090
90 billion. 
So they've decided they want to 

240
00:13:26,100 --> 00:13:31,580
lift one about 4X from the last 
valuation 3 months ago, even 

241
00:13:31,590 --> 00:13:35,830
though ChatGPT use itself is 
down, as Kelly says, and they 

242
00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:38,490
want to start to develop a 
phone, it looks like. 

243
00:13:38,500 --> 00:13:43,270
So they want to develop the AI 
phone to challenge the iPhone. 

244
00:13:43,340 --> 00:13:47,300
That was the big headline. 
This is obviously developing 

245
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,280
SoftBank. 
As we've said before, like 

246
00:13:50,290 --> 00:13:52,280
whenever SoftBank get involved 
in something they're involved 

247
00:13:52,290 --> 00:13:55,670
in, we work, they were involved 
in the recent ARM IPO, they've 

248
00:13:55,680 --> 00:13:59,260
been involved in. 
I mean the guy who runs it 

249
00:14:00,290 --> 00:14:05,380
obviously Sam, he basically did 
his nuts in 2001 tech bubble, 

250
00:14:05,390 --> 00:14:09,780
but then managed to own a few 
companies which did incredibly 

251
00:14:09,790 --> 00:14:11,700
well. 
I think Alibaba was the main one

252
00:14:11,810 --> 00:14:13,630
and he's basically. 
The main player here. 

253
00:14:14,680 --> 00:14:15,800
Yeah, And he's gonna do it 
again. 

254
00:14:15,810 --> 00:14:17,700
He's gonna lose all his money 
and go for it again. 

255
00:14:18,270 --> 00:14:21,140
But he's he's been on the coast 
trying to be on the cusp of tech

256
00:14:21,150 --> 00:14:24,160
for, for a while anyway. 
He's gonna try and get involved.

257
00:14:24,490 --> 00:14:26,620
90 billion for Open AI. 
What do you think? 

258
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:32,180
Feels toppy, doesn't it? 
Well, you get it. 

259
00:14:32,190 --> 00:14:34,300
What are you gonna do 10X on 
that hundred X? 

260
00:14:34,310 --> 00:14:35,710
Like? 
Yeah, sure. 

261
00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,900
They'll just be the most like 
valuable company ever. 

262
00:14:37,910 --> 00:14:40,290
Like. 
Although one thing I would say 

263
00:14:40,300 --> 00:14:44,690
well apples worth 2.5 trillion. 
So yeah, for about 2 trillion. 

264
00:14:46,020 --> 00:14:48,750
The 20X. 
Is the big issue? 

265
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,950
Is the video be? 
Worth more than Open AI and Open

266
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:55,870
AI caused the NVIDIA Rally. 
We're going to look back on six 

267
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:59,950
months and just realise that all
of this is like so toppy. 

268
00:15:01,590 --> 00:15:05,460
I think I do one one I think AI 
is. 

269
00:15:05,650 --> 00:15:08,500
I think it's not toppy. 
I think it's like, you know what

270
00:15:08,510 --> 00:15:12,310
it's like the Internet and like.
I don't know like. 

271
00:15:12,610 --> 00:15:14,980
The Internet was still toppy in 
2002, right? 

272
00:15:14,990 --> 00:15:17,880
All of those were like how 
whatever percentage of those 

273
00:15:17,890 --> 00:15:22,100
companies went from a a big 
valuation to 0. 

274
00:15:22,710 --> 00:15:25,400
So do we still have the Internet
and it could be the same here? 

275
00:15:26,410 --> 00:15:29,180
One thing I would say is that I 
actually think I think more and 

276
00:15:29,190 --> 00:15:33,680
more that apples spot. 
As like the go to hardware and 

277
00:15:33,690 --> 00:15:37,750
then go to. 
Kind of desktop OS or whatever 

278
00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,870
for like people who are not 
corporates who use Microsoft, I 

279
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,980
think that's up for a challenge.
There's no innovation or there's

280
00:15:44,990 --> 00:15:48,270
very limited innovation 
happening at that company in 

281
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:51,630
between product cycles. 
It's so mature. 

282
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:55,610
I think it's probably bloated. 
Every corporate, every massive 

283
00:15:55,620 --> 00:15:58,530
corporate goes through this 
phase of like the initial and 

284
00:15:58,540 --> 00:16:02,010
have found a phase and then that
energy would dies in Waynes and 

285
00:16:02,060 --> 00:16:04,750
I think Apple is going through 
that right now and I think. 

286
00:16:05,660 --> 00:16:10,270
Is probably as ripe for being 
challenged as it has ever been 

287
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,110
currently. 
I think that's bad for NASDAQ. 

288
00:16:14,340 --> 00:16:19,850
Generally. 
So yeah, that that, that one 

289
00:16:19,860 --> 00:16:21,360
piece of this I actually believe
in. 

290
00:16:22,570 --> 00:16:25,940
I think that's very fair. 
I think Apple has a dominant, I 

291
00:16:25,950 --> 00:16:28,110
mean, it has like entrenched 
dominance things like the App 

292
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:32,140
Store and hardware, But a lot of
people have tried phones and it 

293
00:16:32,150 --> 00:16:34,710
hasn't really worked. 
Are you really gonna buy a phone

294
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:36,620
from Sam Altman? 
He kind of scares the crap out 

295
00:16:36,630 --> 00:16:39,680
of me. 
No, exactly right. 

296
00:16:39,730 --> 00:16:42,670
Exactly. 
He's now Steve Jobs, right? 

297
00:16:42,750 --> 00:16:47,740
Anyway, the other piece of news 
was that that there are other 

298
00:16:47,790 --> 00:16:56,560
tech billionaire Zuckerberg. 
He came out with new ray ban 

299
00:16:56,570 --> 00:16:57,900
glasses. 
Have you seen these? 

300
00:16:58,860 --> 00:17:02,960
These are these new glasses that
their version basically of the 

301
00:17:03,810 --> 00:17:08,200
of the wearable tech market. 
He did a let me see if I can get

302
00:17:08,210 --> 00:17:11,060
it up. 
Or maybe over you can. 

303
00:17:11,550 --> 00:17:14,940
You guys both in the same hotel 
room right now, just like you're

304
00:17:14,950 --> 00:17:17,270
in the bedroom? 
Yeah, I was in the bathroom. 

305
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,500
That's, that's correct. 
Bathroom on the balcony, Yeah, I

306
00:17:22,510 --> 00:17:24,950
mean you can see the reflection,
but kind of a weird bathroom 

307
00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:32,300
pieces sitting. 
Sitting it's on the toilet doing

308
00:17:32,310 --> 00:17:36,500
the show. 
Yeah, no, yeah, that's not 

309
00:17:36,510 --> 00:17:40,830
what's happening. 
But the yeah, that was with the 

310
00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:42,290
show. 
Now I just actually can see 

311
00:17:42,300 --> 00:17:44,630
Carly, like how that might look 
like. 

312
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,930
It looks like it's like a window
out. 

313
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:52,310
Anyway, yeah, he and he's and 
you're gonna get AI tools now. 

314
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:55,990
Coming to Facebook, Instagram, 
WhatsApp. 

315
00:17:56,300 --> 00:18:01,160
So all of these texts Bros, big 
move into AI. 

316
00:18:01,470 --> 00:18:03,430
No mention of the Metaverse 
anywhere. 

317
00:18:04,190 --> 00:18:06,460
Um, what do you guys think? 
Is this? 

318
00:18:06,510 --> 00:18:12,210
Is this everyone chasing the 
latest trend or is this is this 

319
00:18:12,220 --> 00:18:17,310
bigger than the Internet, Carly?
The only AI tool we need back is

320
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:21,830
Clippy. 
What do you mean the guy from 

321
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:26,970
Microsoft Word? 
Yeah, Clippy, yeah. 

322
00:18:28,710 --> 00:18:30,400
Yeah, OK, I see you're writing a
letter. 

323
00:18:30,410 --> 00:18:33,120
Do you need help? 
There was there was talk about 

324
00:18:33,130 --> 00:18:35,450
him coming back because now that
they could give him a I, he 

325
00:18:35,460 --> 00:18:37,660
would actually be smart and make
good suggestions. 

326
00:18:37,670 --> 00:18:41,130
But. 
Yeah, look, I think it AI is not

327
00:18:41,190 --> 00:18:44,880
a fad. 
It's just an increase in kind 

328
00:18:44,890 --> 00:18:47,230
of. 
Competing power, I guess, And 

329
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:50,340
what what's possible with stuff?
I don't know if it's this like. 

330
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:56,630
Kind of. 
I don't know if it's going to 

331
00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,530
have this transformational 
impact that a lot of people 

332
00:18:58,540 --> 00:19:02,500
think it will, but it's 
definitely an increase in what 

333
00:19:02,510 --> 00:19:05,980
people can do with computing. 
And so all kind of software 

334
00:19:05,990 --> 00:19:08,510
manufacturers and hardware 
manufacturers and everybody if 

335
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:11,540
they're not. 
Exploring it and playing with it

336
00:19:11,600 --> 00:19:14,180
and. 
Integrating it into their 

337
00:19:14,190 --> 00:19:16,170
products, then they're gonna 
fall behind. 

338
00:19:16,350 --> 00:19:18,900
So you kind of have to chase it,
but I don't know if it's a fad 

339
00:19:18,910 --> 00:19:20,680
or if it's just like one of 
those. 

340
00:19:20,690 --> 00:19:24,460
It's like upgrading from. 
Like previous iterations of 

341
00:19:24,470 --> 00:19:26,460
chips and new iterations of 
chips, it's just something you 

342
00:19:26,470 --> 00:19:27,650
gotta do while you're gonna fall
behind. 

343
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,870
Have you seen the terminology 
that they've started to use? 

344
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,990
So Sam Altman's been called out 
on this quite a few times 

345
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,790
because he keeps on referring to
taking a I to be the median 

346
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,960
human, keeps on referring to 
people as like a median human, 

347
00:19:42,020 --> 00:19:45,340
as an on your spectrum of 
intelligence. 

348
00:19:45,460 --> 00:19:48,320
And everyone's like, this is 
like a really creepy way of 

349
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,150
describing people. 
Like the concept that we are 

350
00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,590
just like, oh, you're a medium, 
or you're a suboptimal or you're

351
00:19:54,700 --> 00:20:00,060
above optimal human. 
He gives me the creeps big time.

352
00:20:01,110 --> 00:20:03,180
He's not a real. 
Test you see, he's he's 

353
00:20:03,190 --> 00:20:04,840
something. 
Something yourself. 

354
00:20:05,290 --> 00:20:07,100
Would you class yourself as a 
median human? 

355
00:20:10,380 --> 00:20:11,150
What about? 
Yourself. 

356
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:15,100
I don't even know. 
Yeah, you're amazing. 

357
00:20:15,710 --> 00:20:17,890
Yeah, that's all. 
Hope he says. 

358
00:20:17,900 --> 00:20:21,650
He basically wants to help 
replace the median human in the 

359
00:20:21,690 --> 00:20:24,060
in the workplace. 
Can you imagine if your boss 

360
00:20:24,070 --> 00:20:27,280
came to you and said, yeah, 
we're gonna replace you because 

361
00:20:27,290 --> 00:20:29,540
you are not. 
You don't quite make the median 

362
00:20:29,550 --> 00:20:32,940
human. 
So we're bringing in AI bot to 

363
00:20:35,530 --> 00:20:39,060
just it's just above, above 
median humans and just bots. 

364
00:20:41,780 --> 00:20:43,590
Yeah, I thought I saw a thing 
the other day. 

365
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,860
They're doing that on the in the
police force as well, bringing 

366
00:20:45,870 --> 00:20:48,450
like these these AI bots to like
replace policemen. 

367
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:55,550
That way on the streets, yeah. 
So they they they already had 

368
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:57,820
like the, the dock. 
They already had like the dogs, 

369
00:20:58,010 --> 00:21:02,080
you know, like the, the. 
Dog Ohh yeah yeah, the robot run

370
00:21:02,090 --> 00:21:04,480
into buildings. 
The run into buildings and save 

371
00:21:04,490 --> 00:21:06,340
people and actually like, who 
the fuck knows what they're 

372
00:21:06,350 --> 00:21:08,200
doing with them? 
They're bringing in these other 

373
00:21:08,210 --> 00:21:10,340
ones which are meant to, like, 
replace people in, like, the 

374
00:21:10,350 --> 00:21:15,770
subway system. 
And I mean, if you're a 

375
00:21:15,780 --> 00:21:17,730
policeman, like, why not? 
Right? 

376
00:21:17,740 --> 00:21:20,570
Like, imagine being a policeman 
right now in America. 

377
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,130
Must be pretty tough. 
So the. 

378
00:21:22,140 --> 00:21:23,740
Idea of yeah, they need all the 
help they can get. 

379
00:21:24,740 --> 00:21:29,470
Bringing in a a I bot kind of 
feels like, why not? 

380
00:21:29,620 --> 00:21:32,130
It's probably gonna be easier 
for your life anyway. 

381
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:34,550
Bots are going to start 
replacing median humans across 

382
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,350
the workplace. 
Yeah, just bow down to them. 

383
00:21:37,410 --> 00:21:40,010
Let's hope we are all above 
median. 

384
00:21:41,990 --> 00:21:45,000
What else did I put as my main 
points today? 

385
00:21:46,390 --> 00:21:50,970
You guys got up to last night. 
We went from, we went for a 

386
00:21:50,980 --> 00:21:53,250
romantic dinner. 
Like every single time, me and 

387
00:21:53,260 --> 00:21:54,770
calling out for dinner, they 
always ask. 

388
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:56,790
It was like, oh, it's so 
romantic. 

389
00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:58,070
Here. 
Carly makes a really awkward 

390
00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:00,330
joke, like we're not together. 
He's always like, yeah, it's a 

391
00:22:00,340 --> 00:22:01,780
really romantic spot, but we're 
not together. 

392
00:22:01,790 --> 00:22:04,730
And they didn't even ask. 
Like 2 guys can just go for 

393
00:22:04,740 --> 00:22:08,820
dinner and it not be a day. 
I didn't say that, but whatever.

394
00:22:10,270 --> 00:22:12,870
Content of the show. 
We're we're not together, but we

395
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:14,190
are sleeping in the same double 
bed. 

396
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:18,570
But we're definitely anyway. 
The next points I have for the 

397
00:22:18,580 --> 00:22:22,450
show were Xbox and GTA for to 
have crypto. 

398
00:22:23,420 --> 00:22:25,110
There are two rumours at this 
stage. 

399
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:31,420
So the first rumour is that Box 
has been exploring A crypto 

400
00:22:31,430 --> 00:22:35,020
wallet for or sorry, Microsoft 
has been exploring an crypto 

401
00:22:35,030 --> 00:22:38,420
wallet for Xbox, which in my 
eyes would be huge. 

402
00:22:38,570 --> 00:22:43,740
I think they have hundreds of 
millions of users, Xbox as in 

403
00:22:44,030 --> 00:22:48,580
users even of their monthly 
subscription platform and the 

404
00:22:48,590 --> 00:22:52,380
idea is that they might be 
integrating web 3 wallets. 

405
00:22:52,450 --> 00:22:56,220
We already saw things like Meta 
Mask of Gone to try and 

406
00:22:56,230 --> 00:22:58,320
integrate themselves in the 
gaming infrastructure with 

407
00:22:58,330 --> 00:23:03,730
things like Unity, but they they
also might be making their own. 

408
00:23:03,970 --> 00:23:08,310
And then the second one was 
that, was that what we're gonna 

409
00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,800
see a token potentially in the 
new GTA6 games. 

410
00:23:11,810 --> 00:23:16,050
So GTA6 has been out for in 
development for nearly ten years

411
00:23:16,060 --> 00:23:17,500
now. 
I think that's when the last 

412
00:23:17,510 --> 00:23:20,300
GTA5 game was out. 
Everyone's been like, when the 

413
00:23:20,310 --> 00:23:23,750
hell is this thing coming out? 
People have said maybe 

414
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:29,870
2024252025 is the most likely, 
but yeah, they could bring in a 

415
00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:33,320
token for GTA. 
Some like talk about digital 

416
00:23:33,330 --> 00:23:35,660
collectibles, but what do you 
think? 

417
00:23:35,670 --> 00:23:40,180
Is that where we get the aha 
moment and we bring on just 

418
00:23:40,490 --> 00:23:42,660
hundreds of millions of users? 
We have the coin. 

419
00:23:43,010 --> 00:23:45,800
Well, the base guy yesterday 
saying what's going on, a 

420
00:23:45,810 --> 00:23:49,060
billion different people. 
I mean, GTA, how many people 

421
00:23:49,070 --> 00:23:50,700
play GTA? 
It must be hundreds. 

422
00:23:50,710 --> 00:23:53,940
Of millions played online. 
Did you guys play GTA Online? 

423
00:23:53,950 --> 00:23:56,360
I never played it. 
I was like, online. 

424
00:23:56,370 --> 00:23:59,180
I love the game. 
I never played it online. 

425
00:23:59,190 --> 00:24:02,450
I think it was. 
Maybe a different segment of the

426
00:24:02,460 --> 00:24:05,750
market to the Call of Duty guys.
First person versus third 

427
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:10,090
person, I guess, but. 
But yeah, I I didn't actually 

428
00:24:10,100 --> 00:24:12,930
know it had an online game. 
But everybody loves GTA. 

429
00:24:12,940 --> 00:24:16,400
Everybody Loves is kind of like 
a second life where you can do 

430
00:24:16,410 --> 00:24:21,100
whatever you want. 
I don't and like it's it's so 

431
00:24:21,110 --> 00:24:24,660
much. 
Change going that people, yeah. 

432
00:24:26,950 --> 00:24:34,230
Well, yeah. 
That's what people used to do. 

433
00:24:35,230 --> 00:24:37,710
It's just so matter of fact. 
Well, yeah, yeah, that's what I 

434
00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:42,730
do like doing, yeah, I think. 
But like it seems like a game 

435
00:24:42,740 --> 00:24:45,490
which would suit a. 
Currency because there's money 

436
00:24:45,500 --> 00:24:47,330
involved people. 
Exactly right. 

437
00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:50,410
It is proper. 
If we talk about what is a 

438
00:24:50,420 --> 00:24:53,240
metaverse or what people, I 
think most people would think of

439
00:24:53,250 --> 00:24:56,050
things like GTA. 
You have basically a second life

440
00:24:56,060 --> 00:24:59,170
where you either choose to 
change or people you don't and 

441
00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,830
you would want to have money. 
That's that. 

442
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:05,350
Yeah, yeah. 
Well, like there's, I don't 

443
00:25:05,360 --> 00:25:07,470
know, there's just a lot of 
freedom in that game. 

444
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:10,050
So there's freedom to like set 
up your own missions, pay people

445
00:25:10,060 --> 00:25:13,130
to do stuff for you, do your own
thing, earn money and prizes, 

446
00:25:13,140 --> 00:25:17,690
earn kind of like go and explore
and find the fighter jet and 

447
00:25:17,700 --> 00:25:19,470
then sell the fighter jet to 
somebody. 

448
00:25:19,530 --> 00:25:22,750
The scope for economic 
transactions in a game where you

449
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,470
can do whatever you want is 
obviously bigger. 

450
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:28,430
So and and it's probably the 
game and everybody loves it for 

451
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,040
that reason. 
So it feels like. 

452
00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,290
If they have a token, it would 
be super interesting. 

453
00:25:33,300 --> 00:25:36,560
I don't know how that and I 
guess maybe that this couples 

454
00:25:36,570 --> 00:25:39,710
with the Xbox news, because if 
you know it's pretty hard for 

455
00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:45,150
GTA, have a game. 
That runs on other kind of 

456
00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:49,030
hardware and or software and 
then plug their crypto well into

457
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:50,310
it. 
So maybe that's where the Xbox 

458
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,690
wallet kind of story is also 
coming from. 

459
00:25:53,900 --> 00:25:59,070
Yeah, look, I think we had, we 
spoke about gaming a lot 

460
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:03,720
yesterday on Rec Radio and I 
just feel as though increasing 

461
00:26:03,730 --> 00:26:05,930
them just like we should just 
build the infrastructure for 

462
00:26:05,940 --> 00:26:08,120
existing games rather than 
having to build our own games. 

463
00:26:08,170 --> 00:26:11,180
Like we don't need to bet on 
some web three-game being 

464
00:26:11,190 --> 00:26:15,490
popular, we can just integrate 
with crypto rails onto something

465
00:26:15,500 --> 00:26:20,670
like GTA or CS GO or any Xbox 
game. 

466
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:24,850
So if they just these sort of 
integrations I think are the 

467
00:26:24,860 --> 00:26:28,210
ones where gamers might not hate
it. 

468
00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:30,230
What they hate is that you try 
and force this. 

469
00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:34,270
Like we've got a blockchain game
with NFTS and a coin like you've

470
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,850
gotta get involved because you 
can get earned $10 a day if you 

471
00:26:37,860 --> 00:26:40,270
say you just play the games that
you play right now. 

472
00:26:40,310 --> 00:26:43,330
But we're just gonna make it 
slightly easier for you to on 

473
00:26:43,380 --> 00:26:46,830
board and off ramp cache and 
trade stuff slightly easier. 

474
00:26:47,140 --> 00:26:50,180
I think that's how they start to
accept it rather than having to 

475
00:26:50,190 --> 00:26:53,280
force them to be like oh, you're
going to like this game because 

476
00:26:53,290 --> 00:26:55,280
it's a three-game where you want
$10 a day. 

477
00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,870
So I think this is super 
bullish. 

478
00:26:57,970 --> 00:27:00,500
This is how you get hundreds of 
millions of users coming into 

479
00:27:00,550 --> 00:27:05,520
into the space. 
I would say the GTA rumours have

480
00:27:05,530 --> 00:27:08,510
been around for a long time. 
They were very, very prevalent 

481
00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:13,050
when NFTS were going massive 
about 18 months ago. 

482
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:18,910
I would still put less than 50% 
probability that Rockstar takes 

483
00:27:18,920 --> 00:27:23,190
this risk on the game because I 
think it's still like it's still

484
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:26,660
be a big risk for a game which 
is just like a surefire bet like

485
00:27:26,700 --> 00:27:28,690
this is like 10 years in 
development. 

486
00:27:28,700 --> 00:27:31,290
They really want to fuck it up. 
But I could very much see 

487
00:27:32,100 --> 00:27:35,150
potentially with time they bring
out token or they see how it 

488
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:38,960
goes and then look to do it as 
the game develops. 

489
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:44,000
So I think it would still be a 
risk to do it at launch, but 

490
00:27:44,010 --> 00:27:48,860
that would be when I start to 
get really bullish on adoption. 

491
00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,950
If you can get integrated like 
we've already seen, Telegram now

492
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:53,310
start to try and integrate 
crypto. 

493
00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,390
This is a huge app, 800 billion 
users. 

494
00:27:56,120 --> 00:27:58,770
If Xbox does it. 
Sony's been a bit more vocal 

495
00:27:58,780 --> 00:28:02,290
about it, doing it like 
Microsoft have been, if you've 

496
00:28:02,300 --> 00:28:05,320
been hearing the comments, the 
Xbox team, the Microsoft team, 

497
00:28:05,330 --> 00:28:07,740
they've been, they've been kind 
of pouring cold water on NFTS 

498
00:28:07,750 --> 00:28:11,340
and crypto, but it's only been a
bit more positive if Microsoft 

499
00:28:11,350 --> 00:28:12,850
do it as well, like it would be 
very big. 

500
00:28:13,870 --> 00:28:18,400
I think Microsoft has been 
sailing closer, other playing it

501
00:28:18,410 --> 00:28:20,320
safer, shall we say, because 
they were trying to get the 

502
00:28:20,330 --> 00:28:23,760
activation thing through various
government entities, right? 

503
00:28:23,770 --> 00:28:26,920
So it feels like, you know, 
they've got other things cooking

504
00:28:26,930 --> 00:28:29,890
and then so they can't maybe 
speak their mind or? 

505
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,170
Push the boundaries as much as 
maybe they want to. 

506
00:28:33,180 --> 00:28:35,110
I think one thing I would add 
just on top of that, I agree 

507
00:28:35,120 --> 00:28:39,110
with everything you said. 
Rocks that I've got like this. 

508
00:28:40,810 --> 00:28:45,640
Kind of brand image slash 
reputation for like doing quite 

509
00:28:45,650 --> 00:28:48,960
controversial things and I think
this could be one of the. 

510
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,140
By coming crypto and like 
everyone hates it and they're 

511
00:28:52,150 --> 00:28:54,100
like, yeah, we're gonna do it 
and you're gonna love it and 

512
00:28:54,110 --> 00:29:02,700
then that's how it works. 
You're muted. 

513
00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:12,120
And me weird. 
Speaking of gaming, the other 

514
00:29:12,130 --> 00:29:15,020
side, Legend of the Mara was 
released yesterday. 

515
00:29:15,090 --> 00:29:18,460
I don't know if you saw this. 
I actually kind of, like replied

516
00:29:18,470 --> 00:29:20,460
back to a tweet. 
I don't know if you saw from UK 

517
00:29:20,470 --> 00:29:23,700
Labs, but I'm not really 
following what's going on and 

518
00:29:23,710 --> 00:29:26,980
when I read some of the tweets 
I'm just like I realise how far 

519
00:29:26,990 --> 00:29:34,880
behind I am in what's going on. 
In Legend of Tamara it's It said

520
00:29:34,950 --> 00:29:37,760
we encountered an unexpected 
response from the volume of 

521
00:29:37,770 --> 00:29:41,820
folks playing Shattered Defence.
We have stabilised the camp game

522
00:29:41,870 --> 00:29:43,440
but needs some time to 
investigate. 

523
00:29:43,450 --> 00:29:46,270
Shattered Mode Hunters will 
still make progress against 

524
00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:50,040
their foes during this outage. 
Hatching cannot be done via 

525
00:29:50,050 --> 00:29:52,620
delegated wallet and must be 
prompted from a wallet holding 

526
00:29:52,630 --> 00:29:55,460
the vessel. 
And I was like, what? 

527
00:29:55,610 --> 00:29:59,920
I don't understand any of this 
stuff, not even one term that I 

528
00:29:59,930 --> 00:30:01,220
understand from what we said 
there. 

529
00:30:01,230 --> 00:30:05,070
But I'm behind clearly. 
I think that's that's partly 

530
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,270
just like me not paying 
attention to the Mara game, but 

531
00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:08,810
it seems to have been well 
received. 

532
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:13,030
But it's clearly this whole new 
thing like Legend of the Mara is

533
00:30:13,040 --> 00:30:15,650
going to essentially be like a 
staking mechanism it looks like 

534
00:30:15,660 --> 00:30:20,770
for the for the land until 
obviously the whole thing is 

535
00:30:20,780 --> 00:30:23,840
built and a gamified version of 
that. 

536
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:28,820
But that was released yesterday.
Go play it, go check it out. 

537
00:30:29,020 --> 00:30:30,950
I think there was. 
Obviously there were some 

538
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:34,630
difficulties in the initial 
launch, but of what I've seen, 

539
00:30:34,810 --> 00:30:37,320
people seem to like it, but 
there's not that many people 

540
00:30:37,330 --> 00:30:40,560
playing it, it seems. 
But that can always change. 

541
00:30:41,490 --> 00:30:46,250
Many people playing many web 
three games, but the the other 

542
00:30:46,260 --> 00:30:51,630
thing is that they move to block
OpenCV and Blur and this is the 

543
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:54,990
first time there's been a new 
Uglass collection and it blocked

544
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:59,210
open C as well as Blur. 
They said remember a couple of 

545
00:30:59,220 --> 00:31:01,860
months ago they were 
disappointed with what? 

546
00:31:01,870 --> 00:31:06,430
Open C Dublin trading fees, new 
collabs I think accounts for 

547
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:11,500
something like 8070 to 80% of 
all the trading fees over the 

548
00:31:11,510 --> 00:31:13,930
last 24 months for for these 
guys. 

549
00:31:15,310 --> 00:31:18,140
So it's very high, maybe don't 
send me 80 but it's like it's 

550
00:31:18,150 --> 00:31:22,540
above 50%. 
What do you think? 

551
00:31:22,580 --> 00:31:31,380
Like if you are running Blur or 
for Open C and you're already 

552
00:31:31,390 --> 00:31:36,600
seeing NFT volumes dip a lot and
I think that's very, very, very 

553
00:31:36,660 --> 00:31:39,540
highly correlated to trading 
fees and greater royalties. 

554
00:31:39,630 --> 00:31:44,800
And now you see one of the top 
or the top creator of NFTS 

555
00:31:44,950 --> 00:31:47,710
coming in and basically blocking
your platform for that, for that

556
00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,320
strategy. 
Do you think that if I'm sitting

557
00:31:50,330 --> 00:31:54,160
there opening blur I might 
decide to change change tactic 

558
00:31:54,170 --> 00:31:57,550
or are they just going to put a 
big FU to them? 

559
00:31:59,130 --> 00:32:02,540
Thank you if they. 
Do similar volumes again. 

560
00:32:03,420 --> 00:32:08,610
Then perhaps yes, the problem is
now because the volumes across 

561
00:32:08,940 --> 00:32:12,970
the IT market is so low. 
Overall, it probably doesn't 

562
00:32:12,980 --> 00:32:17,030
have much of an impact, but you 
know before you go do your turn 

563
00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:19,060
volumes when you have the new 
releases, it'd be super active 

564
00:32:19,070 --> 00:32:22,230
and stuff and it was generally 
profitable for marketplaces that

565
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:27,680
charge marketplace fee, so. 
For now, I don't think it makes 

566
00:32:27,690 --> 00:32:30,220
the move, but you know, let's 
say there's a brand new 

567
00:32:30,230 --> 00:32:32,620
collection that someone is doing
and it's going to be trading a 

568
00:32:32,630 --> 00:32:34,920
lot. 
You would think it would make 

569
00:32:34,930 --> 00:32:37,280
sense for one of the 
marketplaces to actually honour 

570
00:32:37,290 --> 00:32:39,560
royalties to use them. 
And it's funny because like, 

571
00:32:39,770 --> 00:32:41,550
remember the first two platforms
that. 

572
00:32:42,150 --> 00:32:46,080
Didn't honour royalties were 
like pseudo swap and then X2Y2 

573
00:32:46,650 --> 00:32:49,940
and now pseudo swap version 2 on
his royalties next to what? 

574
00:32:49,950 --> 00:32:53,440
He does also honour royalties 
and it's almost like there's 

575
00:32:53,450 --> 00:32:55,790
like not having royalties gained
you more market share, but now 

576
00:32:55,800 --> 00:32:58,460
everything's no royalties. 
Does having royalties getting 

577
00:32:58,470 --> 00:33:02,890
you back market share? 
And I think if you had Someone 

578
00:33:02,900 --> 00:33:05,080
Like You go, if you had a big 
collection that you knew would 

579
00:33:05,090 --> 00:33:08,680
do a lot of volume on the break,
you could sign exclusivity with 

580
00:33:08,690 --> 00:33:10,160
them. 
But we will unlock royalties for

581
00:33:10,170 --> 00:33:13,010
your projects for this whatever 
you come do it with us and no 

582
00:33:13,020 --> 00:33:14,780
one else. 
And maybe that's what's. 

583
00:33:15,890 --> 00:33:17,720
Maybe that's a potential outcome
here. 

584
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:21,300
I think that's I think that's a 
highlight. 

585
00:33:21,310 --> 00:33:24,430
Yeah. 
I think now as some of the older

586
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:27,810
projects become less, less in 
trading fees that they they 

587
00:33:27,820 --> 00:33:31,390
start to slow down but the 
production houses start to put 

588
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:33,570
out new entities. 
I think that it will start to 

589
00:33:33,580 --> 00:33:37,820
swing back to these production 
houses and it's going to be a 

590
00:33:37,830 --> 00:33:40,230
competitive advantage for people
to align themselves with trading

591
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:42,530
fees again. 
So I think we'll probably we'll 

592
00:33:42,540 --> 00:33:47,890
probably get closer to some form
of an equilibrium where where 

593
00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:51,510
trading fees start to return to 
the market and I'm really 

594
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:53,800
bullish about that. 
I think this whole space is 

595
00:33:53,810 --> 00:33:56,770
driven by incentives and I think
you'll see more innovation, 

596
00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:58,270
you'll see more people come 
back. 

597
00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:01,600
Obviously you'll see some of the
hyper narratives that you saw 

598
00:34:01,610 --> 00:34:04,660
during the bull market, but I 
think you need that also to have

599
00:34:04,670 --> 00:34:05,950
the good stuff that's come from 
it. 

600
00:34:06,510 --> 00:34:09,690
So yeah, I think, I think we 
will, I think that's really 

601
00:34:09,699 --> 00:34:13,639
positive for the market. 
Anyway we will end it there. 

602
00:34:13,690 --> 00:34:18,780
It's been 40 minutes look like 
cryptos have kept going higher 

603
00:34:18,790 --> 00:34:22,480
during the chat, looks like 
bitcoin's about to hit 27 KE for

604
00:34:22,489 --> 00:34:25,580
might be hitting 1650. 
So good day. 

605
00:34:26,030 --> 00:34:30,030
One of the better days we think 
we've seen recently and yeah, we

606
00:34:30,040 --> 00:34:33,770
will see you again tomorrow.
