1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:10,400
Good morning, good morning GMGM.
Everyone walked up fuck for 

2
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:13,800
another episode of Homo power. 
I know episode it is. 

3
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:16,200
I've lost track. 
We've done so so many. 

4
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:20,760
We got to get our tracker back 
on top of the street of today is

5
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:27,040
Thursday, October 17th. 
It is another cooler Sunday 

6
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,800
morning here in Chicago. 
Today folks, we are in the 30s 

7
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,480
again, but back in the 60s and 
70s later this week. 

8
00:00:34,480 --> 00:00:38,960
Heating up by the weekend. 
Are memes heating up into the 

9
00:00:38,960 --> 00:00:41,640
weekend? 
Starting to see signs that a 

10
00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,600
weekend run might be starting 
here today, folks. 

11
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,840
We're going to break that down. 
Plus, all the news on today's 

12
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:50,760
show. 
Farouk is busy out interviewing 

13
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:52,640
folks and galvanting around 
Paris. 

14
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:55,400
Mando is traveling today. 
He's not going to be able to 

15
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:58,280
join us, but we've got Logan 
Hitchcock on our editor in chief

16
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,880
over at Lucky Trader, holding 
down the Fort. 

17
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,680
Logan, Jim, how you doing? 
Hey, good morning, Tyler. 

18
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:07,160
I'm doing well. 
Yeah, excited to chat all things

19
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:09,160
market. 
Glad to have you on board. 

20
00:01:09,160 --> 00:01:13,840
Another busy day in Web 3 folks.
We are going to keep today's 

21
00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:19,120
show a bit tighter. 3540 minutes
show a very concise update on 

22
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:20,720
everything happening in the 
market. 

23
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,720
So what are we talking about? 
Topics on today's list? 

24
00:01:23,960 --> 00:01:26,760
We're going to talk Bitcoin 
falling a bit despite massive 

25
00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:30,920
ETF inflows A16Z. 
They published their state of 

26
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,240
crypto calling 2024 the biggest 
year yet. 

27
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:37,440
We'll go through their report. 
Vitalik continued his blog 

28
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,120
outline the future of Etherium. 
We've got some breaking news out

29
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,640
of Jupiter. 
They launched ape Jupiter this 

30
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,600
morning as they lean deeper into
meme coins. 

31
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:49,680
We've got this GOAT token Logan 
euphoric last night as as it 

32
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:54,000
goes on a mini orc run a few 
other old meme coins running it 

33
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:55,720
back. 
We've got big action on the 

34
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,800
Runes board, a huge day of 
digital drops. 

35
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:02,080
I think four or five marquee 
artists doing drops yesterday 

36
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:06,240
and then we'll end the show with
our weekly Arbitrum update here 

37
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:10,639
as well. 
Before we dive in, shout out to 

38
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:14,160

centralized control. 
Shout out to Galaxis as always, 

43

we love having them as our 
partner. 

44
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,880
With that Logie, Are you ready 
for us to to start getting into 

45
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:35,640
some market? 
Check. 

46
00:02:35,640 --> 00:02:38,040
Yeah, let's do it. 
I'm going to pull up the screen 

47
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:42,080
share here one second. 
I'll I'll do my best Mando 

48
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:46,840
impression and try to go around 
the horn here for a quick macro 

49
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,000
update. 
So at Bitcoin, crypto majors 

50
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:56,360
down about 1 to 2%. 
We got Bitcoin here at 66,800 

51
00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:01,360
ETH down one percent 2590 Solana
down 2% at 151. 

52
00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:07,640
Solana continues to lag Bitcoin 
in this recent week of action, 

53
00:03:07,640 --> 00:03:10,880
though if you look at the week, 
it's up about it, it's up in 

54
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:14,720
line pretty much in in step with
Bitcoin. 

55
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,720
As for top movers on the day, 
it's pretty quiet, really not a 

56
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,040
whole lot of big movers in the 
top 100 crypto tokens. 

57
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:25,800
FTT, the FTX token actually was 
the number one alt mover and 

58
00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:29,040
then Popcat starting to make a 
little bit of a run, but we'll 

59
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,800
come back to that later. 
I think that might be a sign of 

60
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,280
what's going to happen here this
weekend. 

61
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:38,680
I, I thought it was a little 
strange that Bitcoin was down 

62
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,040
given these ETF inflows. 
Folks, I don't know if you've 

63
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:44,120
been following these ETF 
inflows, they are massive. 

64
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:49,800
This week we are talking about 
$1.6 billion in ETF inflows in 

65
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:54,400
the past four business days. 
Also pending how today goes, we 

66
00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,160
might be looking at a $2 billion
week. 

67
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:03,280
I bet leading the way pretty 
much as always here with with 

68
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,280
with the ETF flows. 
Perhaps a reason why why we're 

69
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:11,120
seeing Bitcoin dip like the 
dollar appears to to grind up. 

70
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,720
So some dollar strength here 
showing the DXY index. 

71
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:18,279
It's basically been up only 
since October started. 

72
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:21,440
So that that could perhaps be 
leading to some of the cell 

73
00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,240
pressure. 
I think stocks read this morning

74
00:04:24,280 --> 00:04:29,040
as well As for macro news, not a
whole lot on the board. 

75
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:35,520
I saw the the ECB cut interest 
rates by 1/4 percent, 25 bits. 

76
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:41,160
So perhaps a sign of what is to 
come for the for the upcoming 

77
00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,960
the next FOMC meeting happening 
in November. 

78
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:47,400
So that's something somewhat 
notable. 

79
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,720
As for the meme leaderboard and 
we'll do a deeper meme update 

80
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,120
perhaps later in the show. 
It was pretty much read across 

81
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:56,560
the board. 
I was actually looking through 

82
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:59,880
that the meme leaders across 
Solana ETH base, they're pretty 

83
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:03,160
much universally read here this 
morning. 

84
00:05:03,840 --> 00:05:08,240
Doge giving back some gains 
after yesterday with down Pepe 

85
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,840
down 4%. 
Popcap again the the primary out

86
00:05:11,840 --> 00:05:16,640
performer along with MOG. 
So perhaps some signs of life 

87
00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:23,240
there in the broad list. 
You know, Logie, we typically 

88
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,240
talk more Web 3 headlines with 
you, perhaps a little bit more 

89
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:30,920
NFTS, Web 3 gaming type 
headlines, but you know, without

90
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,600
Mando here, it's just us running
the show. 

91
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,240
It kind of I'm curious, what's 
your take? 

92
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:36,840
We haven't really had a chance 
to hear from you. 

93
00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,440
Mando has shared his outlook 
basically feels like Bitcoin 

94
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:44,520
probably grinds up to close to 
previous all time highs into the

95
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:49,320
election 70K range and then 
perhaps you know, springboards 

96
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:53,880
from there into Q4. 
Curious for your macro read? 

97
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,280
Like what? 
How are you thinking about 

98
00:05:56,280 --> 00:06:00,800
Bitcoin here in Q 4/20/24? 
Yeah, I, I mean, a boring 

99
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,760
response. 
I don't have any crazy opinions 

100
00:06:03,760 --> 00:06:07,120
about what happens with Bitcoin.
But, you know, I, I still do 

101
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:11,000
feel like I'm in line in terms 
of thinking in line with a lot 

102
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,920
of what the market is feeling 
and thinking. 

103
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,240
You know, still some 
uncertainty, though. 

104
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,720
Of course, the market's starting
to perhaps price in more of a 

105
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:22,840
likelihood or a probability of a
Trump election win, but still, 

106
00:06:22,880 --> 00:06:24,400
you know, some uncertainty 
leading into that. 

107
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:27,040
And then perhaps some of the 
euphoria that comes out at the 

108
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:28,400
other end. 
I was actually just looking at 

109
00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:33,160
some of the Poly market boards 
as well, still like a 69% chance

110
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:37,320
or I'm sorry, 69% probability 
according to the market that is 

111
00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,720
that Bitcoin sees a new all time
high in 2024. 

112
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:45,120
So I, I, I think I'm right there
along alongside that. 

113
00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:49,280
I think that feels like a pretty
good number with what just over 

114
00:06:49,280 --> 00:06:52,200
two months left in the year. 
I'm ready for all time high. 

115
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,680
Do you have a Bitcoin price 
target for this cycle? 

116
00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:00,000
Let's say, let's assume that a a
bull cycle plays out along the 

117
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,880
lines of the four year kind of 
historical pattern we've seen. 

118
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:08,400
Do you have a number in mind? 
I mean, 100,000 just feels so 

119
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,760
psychologically important, 
right? 

120
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:15,280
It's yeah, it's just like that. 
That's the number that's been 

121
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,760
said for what such a long time. 
And of course there's so many 

122
00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,240
other targets, the 250 
thousands, the, you know, 

123
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,040
astronomical targets set by 
Sailor and others. 

124
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:28,640
But I feel like 100,000 get me 
there and let's let's see what 

125
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:33,320
happens and see if we can broach
that psychologically and and 

126
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,040
then, you know, maybe off to the
races. 

127
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,720
A little conservative. 
So I'm I'm a little out past you

128
00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:41,480
there. 
So I think 100K generally is 

129
00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:43,400
still my target for for the end 
of this year. 

130
00:07:43,400 --> 00:07:47,080
I think it's doable kind of 
probably does depend a bit on 

131
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,680
the results of the election 
there. 

132
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,680
I think 150K is my target for 
Bitcoin. 

133
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,920
So I'm I'm still on where this 
goes. 

134
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,160
That's the power law number from
from the Kruger school thought 

135
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:03,120
is 150K. 
There's a, there's $1,000,000 in

136
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:04,640
volume on a market at probably 
market. 

137
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:11,640
Will Bitcoin hit 250K in 2024? 
A $1,000,000 in volume, 3%, yes.

138
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:17,040
So for those who want to extend 
out a bit further, you want to 

139
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,080
take a lottery ticket, There's 
there's things like that 

140
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,200
available. 
In 2025 or 2024? 

141
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:26,480
2024 so 2 and a half 2 1/2 
months to like 4X yeah, that 

142
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,720
feels feels a little wild, but 
yeah. 

143
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:34,840
So maybe some free money on the 
know besides Bitcoin. 

144
00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:40,000
I still I'm still a Solana bull.
Solana kind of secretly quietly 

145
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,000
is trading it at market cap all 
time highs. 

146
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:45,160
OV always reminds us that in the
group chat because of all the 

147
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,480
unlocks and there's a lot of 
unlocks coming in Q1. 

148
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:54,480
But it really does feel like 
Solana is the the L1 of the 

149
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,480
cycle. 
I think Suey probably is next 

150
00:08:56,480 --> 00:09:00,280
man up there and then Tao is 
really interesting in the AI 

151
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,360
space and we'll talk about some 
of those transaction that that's

152
00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:09,480
a good seg to this A16Z state of
crypto report. 

153
00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,160
If folks do care about this 
industry, I, I do encourage you 

154
00:09:13,160 --> 00:09:15,480
all just to go through and and 
read this. 

155
00:09:16,680 --> 00:09:18,160
It's a a pretty interesting 
read. 

156
00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,320
There's their summary of 2024, 
which they're calling the 

157
00:09:22,320 --> 00:09:27,080
biggest year in crypto yet, and 
they've outlined their seven key

158
00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:29,560
takeaways, which are all 
data-driven and they've got some

159
00:09:29,560 --> 00:09:35,720
nice visuals and graphics here 
backing up all of these here. 

160
00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:37,760
Let me see, I'll I'll try to go 
through them. 

161
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:42,320
So at a high level, the number 
one is that activity is at all 

162
00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:45,600
time high and that they point to
walled addresses. 

163
00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:47,920
I actually think this is a 
little bit murky just with all 

164
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:50,840
the bots and AI agents entering 
crypto. 

165
00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,200
So I think we need to take that 
with a grain of salt. 

166
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,320
But hard to deny the growth 
here. 

167
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,560
And they're comparing it to the 
growth of the Internet and and 

168
00:09:58,560 --> 00:10:02,320
showing how it's actually in 
line, if not slightly ahead. 

169
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,080
So that's their their starter 
take away. 

170
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:08,600
They go on to talk about 
politics and how crypto has 

171
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:13,400
become a key political issue 
ahead of the US election and how

172
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,240
much it's grown in some swing 
states. 

173
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,080
I don't think that's a surprise 
to anyone. 

174
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:20,800
But, you know, taking a look 
back on this year from the 

175
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:24,000
outside, that certainly is a 
really important theme and 

176
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,440
perhaps one that we didn't see 
coming. 

177
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:31,240
The increased politicalization 
of crypto stablecoins. 

178
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:34,440
I mean, stablecoins is a boring 
topic, but it really does feel 

179
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:38,760
like perhaps the biggest take 
away of the year is the 

180
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:42,560
increasing globalization, the 
increasing rise in usage, 

181
00:10:42,560 --> 00:10:46,560
adoption everywhere. 
More and more big players are 

182
00:10:46,560 --> 00:10:50,160
getting into this game and it 
feels like stablecoins have 

183
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:54,240
certainly found a massive 
product market fit here in 

184
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:56,520
crypto. 
A few others kind of going 

185
00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,400
through the rest of the list 
infrastructure improvements. 

186
00:10:59,680 --> 00:11:02,400
I think that's kind of par for 
the course with with as much 

187
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:05,840
focus on infrastructure as as we
have, you know, I think it'd be 

188
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,720
more surprising if we're not 
having, you know, yearly growth 

189
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,720
there. 
Defy remaining popular. 

190
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:16,800
I think for folks who are in the
the crypto streets, you know, 

191
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,640
being able to do things with it 
earned yield. 

192
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,920
Linda guess it that that's never
going to go away. 

193
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:26,560
So I think defy a core pillar of
crypto at this point. 

194
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,040
AI is an interesting new one on 
their list. 

195
00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,920
Crypto could solve some of a is 
most pressing challenges. 

196
00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:37,560
They're talking a bit about the 
intersection here and perhaps 

197
00:11:37,560 --> 00:11:41,760
we'll we'll get into that and 
then more scalable infra as they

198
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,480
look to create more on chain 
applications. 

199
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,120
This gets a little bit more into
that consumer crypto buzzword 

200
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,320
that so many of us have been 
talking about. 

201
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:51,680
So that that's a quick rundown 
of this. 

202
00:11:52,680 --> 00:11:54,960
We'll go into more detail about 
Logan, Curious for any reactions

203
00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:56,800
you have. 
Or perhaps you know, Part 2 of 

204
00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,760
that question. 
What should you which of these 7

205
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,800
takeaways do you feel like is 
the the most important? 

206
00:12:02,560 --> 00:12:06,040
Yeah, a few high level from my 
perspective, the activity and 

207
00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,280
usage at all time highs, you 
know, of course the number one 

208
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:12,360
take away here, just seeing that
alongside the Internet growth, 

209
00:12:12,360 --> 00:12:16,760
you know, which I wasn't, you 
know, paying attention. 

210
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,000
Of course, I was a very small 
child, wasn't paying attention 

211
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,120
to the growth of the Internet 
and wasn't around to understand 

212
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,320
that. 
So it's difficult for me to 

213
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:27,200
fathom that this industry that 
we're participating in every 

214
00:12:27,200 --> 00:12:30,280
single day is actually growing 
as fast as it is. 

215
00:12:30,640 --> 00:12:34,360
And then secondly, you know, you
mentioned the some murkiness 

216
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,680
right in the numbers and A16Z 
does a great job of explaining 

217
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:41,040
exactly that there. 
You know, there is some, some 

218
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:44,680
conflict and how they come and, 
and arrive to this number, but 

219
00:12:44,680 --> 00:12:46,680
they do break it down. 
There's actually a a separate 

220
00:12:46,680 --> 00:12:49,280
article that breaks down the, 
the address growth and stuff, 

221
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,840
but 220 million, even when you 
get down to the 30 to 60 

222
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,960
million, which they believe are 
real people making those monthly

223
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,760
transactions. 
That just seems wild to me, 

224
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,600
right? 
Like I, that seemed high and you

225
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,240
know, I hope it's as accurate as
it could possibly be, right, 

226
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,920
with all those caveats in there.
But that gives me some cautious 

227
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,720
optimism, you know, about how 
many people are actually 

228
00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:15,520
interacting here, how big this 
market actually is, even though 

229
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:19,920
from time to time or maybe every
day, right, it feels so small, 

230
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:24,000
like this is a much bigger deal 
than we actually think it is. 

231
00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,440
So I think those are some of the
takeaways for me that just kind 

232
00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:30,680
of, you know, reaffirm why we're
here, why we're making the bets 

233
00:13:30,680 --> 00:13:32,600
that we're making. 
Make you feel a little bit 

234
00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:34,160
better. 
Some confirmation bias, if you 

235
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:37,000
will. 
I'm reminded a lot of how small 

236
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,800
our crypto Twitter bubble is 
compared to all of crypto. 

237
00:13:40,800 --> 00:13:43,040
I think conferences are always a
good reminder of that. 

238
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:47,760
Like Bitcoin Nashville boots on 
the ground there, I'd say just, 

239
00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:50,840
you know, finger in the air swag
estimate less than 5% of those 

240
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:54,240
folks are are probably like 
showing up and and interacting 

241
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,920
in what we consider crypto 
Twitter on a daily basis, let 

242
00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,960
alone all the folks who are 
employed in this industry. 

243
00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:01,640
So I I would agree with you 
there. 

244
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:06,560
I guess Logan any like any 
worrisome takeaways or or any 

245
00:14:06,560 --> 00:14:09,440
perhaps you know negative takes 
on any of these 7? 

246
00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:13,080
Yeah, interesting. 
I, I read this with such a, a, a

247
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:17,560
hopium that I, I probably didn't
have any immediate worrisome 

248
00:14:17,560 --> 00:14:19,480
stuff. 
I guess one of the things 

249
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:22,840
particularly for us is if you 
Scroll down into, yeah, of 

250
00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,360
course the, the political stuff.
But if you Scroll down into like

251
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,720
the builder activity and, and 
the types of categories people 

252
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:32,600
are building in saw a decline in
some of the NFT infrastructure. 

253
00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:36,120
I mean, that's where I grew up 
in this, in this ecosystem, 

254
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:37,600
right? 
I kind of came through the NFT 

255
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,160
stuff. 
Yeah. 

256
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:42,400
And that that 4.4% actually I 
think is a decrease year over 

257
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,280
year. 
So some of those things, you 

258
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:46,760
know, like I don't want 
necessarily want to say 

259
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,080
worrisome in the sense that like
I, I'm concerned about the 

260
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:52,600
future of NFTS. 
You see 8 1/2 percent of builder

261
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,760
activity last year, 4.4% this 
year. 

262
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,600
But that that is something that,
you know, a technology and an 

263
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:01,520
interest for myself. 
And I'm perhaps many of those 

264
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,960
watching this show that seeing a
a little bit less builder 

265
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,040
activity and interest and 
innovation in. 

266
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,440
So that's something that's a a 
little worrisome, not 

267
00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,520
necessarily for the full state 
of crypto, but just for, you 

268
00:15:12,520 --> 00:15:15,240
know, my particular interests 
and perhaps the interests of the

269
00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,480
demographic that's consuming 
this type of content. 

270
00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:21,400
But otherwise, Tyler, yeah, I 
read this with a a lot of opium.

271
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:24,440
The, the political stuff is 
always there as a, as a 

272
00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:27,560
worrisome thing just because 
the, the more that it is in 

273
00:15:27,560 --> 00:15:31,520
focus, you know, I think we're 
expecting and hoping for more 

274
00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,880
clarity and, and, you know, just
more regulatory frameworks so 

275
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,840
that it can continue to exist 
and thrive and grow. 

276
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:40,000
But of course, there's always 
that like in the back of your 

277
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,800
head, you know, that that 
regulatory stuff could also 

278
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,760
hinder growth. 
And there's some some 

279
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,960
demographic data in here as well
that showcases that the United 

280
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:51,960
States is such a massive player 
here that, you know, you need 

281
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:56,920
that regulatory stuff to be at 
least neutral, you know, for, 

282
00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:00,080
for growth. 
I I'm with you there and thank 

283
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:01,480
you. 
You point out this, this builder

284
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:02,680
desperate. 
I actually had missed this. 

285
00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,080
So folks, I definitely encourage
you to check this out. 

286
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:08,160
There's some really cool visuals
here in this builder 

287
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:14,840
energy.a16crypto.com As for the 
the yeah, the political take 

288
00:16:14,840 --> 00:16:18,120
away was my more worrisome, but 
I've shared my thoughts on that.

289
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,920
We don't need to repeat it. 
I want to talk about a few 

290
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,440
takeaways from this dashboard, 
because this thing is. 

291
00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:25,240
Is awesome. 
Sweet. 

292
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:28,920
So starting with builder 
interest by blockchain, I think 

293
00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:32,400
what jumps out to me here is 
just the Ethereum dominance. 

294
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:40,080
So it's ETH and then ETH al twos
are what 8080% of the of what's 

295
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:45,880
of what builders are focused on 
right now with Solana at 11 and 

296
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,800
Bitcoin at four. 
One thing that doesn't talk 

297
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:52,920
about about Solana, if you talk 
of the years, Solana was just 5%

298
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:56,480
last year. 
So it has more than doubled in 

299
00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:59,440
builder interest on the year, 
which is notable and I wouldn't 

300
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:03,720
be surprised to see that circle 
grow into next year. 

301
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:07,760
I will say what people are 
building was perhaps a little 

302
00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:11,400
disappointing, I guess not a 
surprise though, right. 

303
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:17,520
So D5 a quarter, 25% infra and 
19%, but actually infra picks 

304
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:22,280
and shovels, wallets gets you 
closer to 40%. 

305
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:29,160
NFTS are down Depend at 6%, what
was depend last year, that's got

306
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,920
to be up quite a bit more. 
So let's talk about 6%. 

307
00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,240
Any takeaways from you on the 
category? 

308
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,760
I know you kind of went into 
this all year within a. 

309
00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:41,880
Yeah, category stuff. 
I had the same sort of take 

310
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,600
away, Tyler, you know, as 
somebody who's using some more 

311
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:48,840
of the, the consumer focused 
stuff, the NFT type stuff that 

312
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:53,120
is a little not, not concerning,
but it's just, you know, you 

313
00:17:53,120 --> 00:17:55,960
know, I wish, I want to see more
builder activity in some of 

314
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,520
those more socially focused 
consumer focused things. 

315
00:17:58,520 --> 00:18:00,000
And perhaps that's next year's 
right. 

316
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,480
You have things like abstract 
and many others that are really,

317
00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,840
really trying to focus on 
consumers and actual use cases 

318
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:08,640
beyond the the hyper 
financialized stuff. 

319
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,360
So that was one thing. 
The the above though, the 

320
00:18:11,360 --> 00:18:14,120
blockchain stuff, the builder 
energy, of course, this is being

321
00:18:14,120 --> 00:18:17,320
built. 
This data is A16Z indicates this

322
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:20,200
is proprietary data, right? 
They're using their connections 

323
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:23,720
to the space, their investment 
in the space to drive this 

324
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,800
information. 
And of course, you know, we know

325
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:27,480
they're leading all the biggest 
phrases. 

326
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,400
Who better to show us where the 
future is going to be at least 

327
00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,400
built in the near term? 
And so this, this was awesome to

328
00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:36,800
me to see Salon as growth. 
Of course, that corresponds to 

329
00:18:36,800 --> 00:18:39,320
our activity every single day on
the chain, right? 

330
00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:42,200
Like that is where things are 
happening most, or at least 

331
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:43,720
that's where it feels things are
happening most. 

332
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:47,400
So no, no shock to see it there.
But I think this might be, you 

333
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,000
know, if you're someone out 
there who's looking to 

334
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:51,480
participate in different ways, 
you know, you think there's a 

335
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,560
massive bowl that's going to 
extend beyond chains into a 

336
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:59,080
really robust, you know, just 
macro crypto bull run. 

337
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,960
Take a look at some of these 
that are getting in that 456 

338
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,600
percent. 
They may be your 1012% next 

339
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,200
year. 
Yeah, AVAX was one that was off 

340
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,400
the top of my head. 
It was like, OK, you know, we've

341
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:13,560
talked about them arbitrum, of 
course base, like those types of

342
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,680
things that have grown year over
year. 

343
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:18,840
You know, they may be the 
winners next year and you could,

344
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,680
you know, maybe not have the 
same multiple of of hey, if you 

345
00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:27,080
were at the $8 Solana into the 
150 sixty whatever dollar 

346
00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:28,880
Solana. 
But you know, maybe you're in 

347
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:32,600
the ground floor of an ecosystem
that's about to double or triple

348
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:34,400
over the next year. 
And there's some there's some 

349
00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:35,960
probably real opportunity in 
those. 

350
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:37,960
So that was really exciting to 
me to see this. 

351
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,200
This is really really cool data 
and information to be able to 

352
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,800
just play with. 
I'm with you I, I was surprised 

353
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,880
not to see Sui on this map. 
So we're curious if Sui will be 

354
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:47,600
on there as like the next man 
up. 

355
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:52,120
My last take away, they have a 
nice geographical map here. 

356
00:19:52,120 --> 00:19:55,160
So 40% of builders are in the 
US. 

357
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:58,960
So there's a lot of rhetoric out
there, you know, saying how hard

358
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:02,680
it is for builders in the US and
clearly it's still a substantial

359
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,400
component. 
So good data go check this out 

360
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,840
if you haven't already. 
That's going to sum up our. 

361
00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:11,560
Macro update let's go down the 
the risk curve a little bit 

362
00:20:11,560 --> 00:20:14,440
let's start talking memes so I 
think the breaking news here 

363
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:19,520
this morning is Jupiter has 
officially introduced AP Jupiter

364
00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:24,400
as its meme coin terminal. 
I think it's AP dot Pro is the 

365
00:20:24,400 --> 00:20:28,760
address real time streaming of 
new tokens, advanced data and 

366
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:31,240
charts, optimized Med 
protection. 

367
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:35,600
It it looks like I mean, Jupiter
is is kind of going to be the 

368
00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,480
whole universe one stop shop, 
right? 

369
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:41,440
You're not going to even need to
use that many of the other apps.

370
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:43,320
You're going to be able to do 
everything in Jupiter. 

371
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,560
They have the new mobile app. 
We we showed the integration 

372
00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:49,400
where you can just kind of click
their their logo now on 

373
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:53,120
different sites and and start to
trade right in there. 

374
00:20:53,120 --> 00:20:55,320
So clearly they're they're 
leaning in. 

375
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:59,080
So so shout out to to Jupiter. 
I'm excited to try to test this 

376
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:00,240
out. 
Didn't have really a chance 

377
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,680
before the show. 
As for that the meme coin board,

378
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:09,040
I guess we can start with go it 
it it is the the biggest story 

379
00:21:09,360 --> 00:21:11,800
in memes. 
Last night before I was getting 

380
00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:13,960
ready for bed this thing hit 360
million. 

381
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:18,080
I'm seeing what 375,000,000 at 
peak did. 

382
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:20,840
Did you chip any off there low 
gear or are you holding from the

383
00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:22,640
room? 
I should have probably chipped 

384
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,640
some off. 
I did not. 

385
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:28,160
No, I was watching some playoff 
baseball last night. 

386
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,440
The WNBA game was excellent as 
well last night. 

387
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,880
But yeah, you know, I'm feeling 
I mentioned on the show 

388
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:38,920
yesterday I sold about half my 
bag at around 125 million, which

389
00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:42,360
of course looks very silly now. 
And this, this last bit, you 

390
00:21:42,360 --> 00:21:44,800
know, I'm kind of bought into 
this narrative, so I'm OK 

391
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,840
withholding. 
I said, you know, a billion 

392
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,680
Billy goat, right? 
That type of thing feels. 

393
00:21:50,720 --> 00:21:53,280
And I don't want to say program 
nothing is financial advice 

394
00:21:53,280 --> 00:21:56,320
here, of course, but that's the 
kind of the target that I've got

395
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:57,440
in the back of my head right 
now. 

396
00:21:57,440 --> 00:21:59,480
So I did not chip any off last 
night. 

397
00:22:00,040 --> 00:22:02,960
Yeah, and, and rightfully so. 
I mean, all the dips on this 

398
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,640
thing are just getting eaten so.
Fast. 

399
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:09,680
It's, it's wild, yeah. 
I mean it, it got down to 200 at

400
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,240
some point yesterday, maybe a 
little bit below and then, you 

401
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:16,960
know, in 1520 minutes you look 
back up and it's 275-280-5300 

402
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:18,160
these. 
Candles are absurd. 

403
00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:21,440
And then Arkham Intel picked it 
up yesterday even though they 

404
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:22,880
didn't really have their facts 
straight. 

405
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:25,160
People have been flooding. 
It doesn't really seem to 

406
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,440
matter. 
I think that this this thing is,

407
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,280
is bigger than the FUD at this 
point. 

408
00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,720
You know, we'll see now it's in 
the it's basically gotten to 

409
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,320
where Mudang got at peak. 
We'll see if it's able to to get

410
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:38,480
past 400. 
I think that's going to be a key

411
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:41,640
level. 
We we saw some other runners. 

412
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:46,840
So Wyack out of nowhere, 
arguably that the biggest winner

413
00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:50,640
of the day at 270%. 
I haven't personally dug into 

414
00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:51,600
this. 
I have a buddy who's been 

415
00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:53,760
tracking this closely. 
It looks like a couple wallets, 

416
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:57,640
perhaps even the same person, 
shoved 1.5 million into this 

417
00:22:57,640 --> 00:22:59,000
thing. 
So. 

418
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:03,320
So they are a big driver of this
absurd candle that you see here 

419
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,240
on the day. 
So I'm happy to learn a little 

420
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:10,120
bit more about their intentions.
This this should be at all time 

421
00:23:10,120 --> 00:23:11,680
high. 
I think you're supposed to this.

422
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:12,280
Yeah. 
Yeah. 

423
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:18,480
Back when we had when we had the
woman on the show, that was back

424
00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:22,120
in, yeah, summertime, early 
summer, right around when it 

425
00:23:22,120 --> 00:23:23,480
peaked. 
And then, of course, you know, 

426
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,040
several memes had the same 
chart. 

427
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:29,160
It started to rally up back to 
510 and I had some friends get 

428
00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:30,600
back in. 
I never got back in on this, 

429
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:34,080
much to my chagrin. 
So this thing is wow, this 

430
00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,560
thing, How high did it Wick? 
Oh my goodness, I didn't even 

431
00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,280
see. 
The Wick I never owned. 

432
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:43,240
This one Wick to 60. 
Wow, So so quite the Wick to 

433
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:47,120
fill there for Wyack. 
Shout out to those who who held 

434
00:23:47,120 --> 00:23:51,320
through the the downturn. 
Going across the rest of the 

435
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,080
board. 
We'll take a look at the Maraud 

436
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:54,640
board. 
It looks like it's starting to 

437
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:58,920
flip green here. 
So we, we, we love to see that 

438
00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:03,040
almost universally green. 
My one of my core thesis is that

439
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:05,560
the moron list might, might 
trade like the old art blocks 

440
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:09,680
curated where we see the pull 
backs Monday to Wednesday run 

441
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:11,200
into the weekend Thursday to 
Sunday. 

442
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:14,600
Perhaps we are starting to see 
that it's going to depend on 

443
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:16,760
Popcat and I think it's largely 
going to depend on some of the 

444
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,520
mean majors as well. 
Like I think we need with to run

445
00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:22,440
for Popcat to really move up to 
1.5. 

446
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:26,440
If Popcat goes to 1.5, I think 
we see some big movements across

447
00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,440
the board. 
Did you, did you catch the 

448
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:33,520
Rasmer investigation research 
thing yesterday? 

449
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,920
Did you catch that? 
The the boots on the ground 

450
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:39,840
pulling everyone with the. 
Yeah, 293 people or something. 

451
00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:43,280
I didn't watch the entire video.
I saw that MU Dang was like the,

452
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:47,120
I think the winner, but I saw 
some of the takeaways that he 

453
00:24:47,120 --> 00:24:49,560
had shared afterwards. 
And Full disclosure, I did not 

454
00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:51,920
watch the video, so I can't be 
certain he wasn't trolling or 

455
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,840
something. 
But I saw some mention of USA 

456
00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:58,920
Coin being, yeah, like being 
highlighted a couple times by 

457
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,240
that's one that I can totally 
understand. 

458
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,680
You know, it falls right into 
that like Zen level category for

459
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:08,200
me where like, I understand the 
potential, you know, the word 

460
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,080
cult's being used a lot here 
recently. 

461
00:25:10,560 --> 00:25:12,880
I understand the potential 
cultishness behind. 

462
00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:16,320
That's probably not a word 
behind like AUSA coin. 

463
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:17,400
That one makes a lot of sense to
me. 

464
00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:22,080
Again, never owned it. 
I do own some Zen, but I I get 

465
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,120
that one, some of these other 
ones on the list. 

466
00:25:24,120 --> 00:25:26,920
I mean, it's just I'm not 
fighting Maraud at all. 

467
00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,440
I loved his performance on the 
show last week. 

468
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,720
He seems like a crazy evil 
genius. 

469
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:33,720
Not evil, but, you know, crazy 
genius. 

470
00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:37,640
Hopefully not evil. 
Yeah, hopefully not evil, but 

471
00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:41,600
yeah, that's the one of this 
list which I actually don't own 

472
00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:45,000
any of at this point in time, 
which feels very silly, right, 

473
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:49,600
To not own. 
It yes, the American one rotate.

474
00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,800
Some of the. 
Log get some. 

475
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:56,680
It's something on the list. 
I've loved Mog for a long time. 

476
00:25:56,680 --> 00:26:00,200
You know, we talked about it 
around 250 million maybe even 

477
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,720
before and I mentioned that that
would be the one that I would 

478
00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:06,280
buy and I just never bought it. 
I did have AI had a Popcap bag 

479
00:26:06,280 --> 00:26:09,200
that I eventually sold off. 
Same. 

480
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,920
For a nice mini such. 
Tails, thank you. 

481
00:26:13,120 --> 00:26:14,960
Thank you for for calling out 
USA. 

482
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:19,400
It is one of my larger bags. 
I have to disclose that my 

483
00:26:19,400 --> 00:26:24,480
thesis is that all the the 
Polyphi, all the single 

484
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:26,040
political coins are going to go 
away. 

485
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:33,920
But USA people still love USA 
and it's on the Maraud list. 

486
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,360
It was the lowest. 
I think my house is because it's

487
00:26:36,360 --> 00:26:38,720
not going to, it's not going to 
remain the the lowest. 

488
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:44,000
A Trump, a Trump victory, which 
it seems increasingly likely 

489
00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:48,240
feels like such a great catalyst
for AUSA coin, right? 

490
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,120
And of course, there's the MAGA 
stuff. 

491
00:26:50,120 --> 00:26:55,280
But like, everybody, you know, 
MAGA has like, people don't like

492
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:56,440
that. 
Some people don't like that, you

493
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:58,440
know, like half the country 
doesn't really like that. 

494
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:01,600
The country likes USA. 
It can get behind USA. 

495
00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,320
You imagine if we have a, a New 
York, NY World Series. 

496
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:06,480
I mean, there's so many things 
coming up USA. 

497
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,440
But there really are great, 
great reference there. 

498
00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:12,560
A couple other things. 
USA is still far off all time 

499
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:16,480
highs from the big polyfi rage 
and then unit bias. 

500
00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,880
A lot of the hot coins are now 
close to like $0.10 or at a 

501
00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:23,720
dollar like Popcat. 
This is one where you can pick 

502
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:27,320
up, you know, a billion tokens 
and then just what if it goes to

503
00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,680
a dollar type thing, which you 
can't a whole lot of other coins

504
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,720
on the list. 
So enough of my bag pumping 

505
00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,600
here. 
Circle was another one kind of 

506
00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,120
came out of nowhere. 
I thought circle was dead. 

507
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:41,560
I think you picked this up at at
a million. 

508
00:27:41,560 --> 00:27:44,680
It went back to 15 or so. 
So it's still a lot. 

509
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,560
Any reason why this thing is 
pumping? 

510
00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:50,440
I couldn't tell you why it's 
pumping. 

511
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:55,000
I had been seeing it on my 
timeline for I don't know why, 

512
00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,360
but it just like kept showing up
and then I probably like 

513
00:27:57,360 --> 00:27:59,560
interacted with a post or 
something and then I just kept 

514
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,400
getting fed more circle stuff. 
I think what upon the people 

515
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,720
every day that ran to like 13 or
14,000,000 maybe overnight. 

516
00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:10,520
And when I refreshed and looked 
at it for the first time, I 

517
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:12,560
didn't purchase on the initial 
run up, it was at like 

518
00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:16,080
1,000,000. 
It retraced nearly all the way. 

519
00:28:17,360 --> 00:28:19,680
Yeah. 
And you know, I don't know why, 

520
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,120
Tyler. 
I just kept seeing it and I was 

521
00:28:21,120 --> 00:28:23,320
like 1,000,000. 
I'm going to take a small bet 

522
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:26,920
here. 
Perhaps the the influx of art on

523
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,440
on shape and we'll we'll we'll 
come back to that here in a 

524
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,360
second, but shape has still had 
a flurry of activity. 

525
00:28:33,360 --> 00:28:36,960
So shout out to circle holders. 
Nice little comeback for you. 

526
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,360
Some actually on the rooms board
as well. 

527
00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:43,800
I got quickly hit this so 
billion dollar cat was a top 

528
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,000
story yesterday. 
It hit 100 million in a new all 

529
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,280
time high. 
It's hanging out at 92 right 

530
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:50,760
now. 
Red cat Romeo was a big mover. 

531
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,520
Apparently that is the cat of a 
magic Eden founder. 

532
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,640
So any pet tied to any founder 
is going to have some kind of a 

533
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,080
pump. 
So that was moving last night 10

534
00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:03,320
Bitcoin volume, nothing to 
sneeze at and then puka was the 

535
00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:07,920
the big mover last night. 
This thing was had 600 pending 

536
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,240
transactions at 1.25 Bitcoin 
volume. 

537
00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:14,920
So clearly the number one mover.
It's up to the $3,000,000 market

538
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:16,320
cap. 
I've seen mixed stories. 

539
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:21,400
So I think this is tied to OMB. 
Perhaps ZK's dog, another weird 

540
00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:25,000
pet tie in. 
I think it was a gas war to mint

541
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:26,080
this. 
So as I understand, people who 

542
00:29:26,080 --> 00:29:29,640
are minting this runes were 
minting it at close to a 2 or 

543
00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:32,720
$3,000,000 market cap. 
At least some of them were. 

544
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,720
So this is going to be perhaps a
new one to watch. 

545
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,480
Gizmo at 16,000,000. 
I think the the wild card for 

546
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,320
Gizmo is that ornals met later 
today. 

547
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:44,680
So we will see how that 
potentially impacts the runes 

548
00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:49,200
interestingly. 
So RSIRSIC growing up a bit dog 

549
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:52,080
hanging out at 550 million. 
So it's really up there. 

550
00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:56,080
Pups has had a rough week here, 
down 10% at 1:30. 

551
00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:00,560
So we will see if and when that 
starts to turn around. 

552
00:30:00,720 --> 00:30:03,960
Well, we we talked about what 
might be pumping circle and it 

553
00:30:03,960 --> 00:30:06,360
was a big day in art across the 
board. 

554
00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:11,520
So switching over to NFTS and 
digital art, 45 major artists 

555
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,440
had dropped yesterday. 
So Gremplin did this ticker 

556
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:20,080
treat drop on base, did 50,000 
mints on on this thing. 

557
00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,520
So, so quite a lot of demand 
though it was it was pretty much

558
00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:29,400
free .000666 E. 
We also saw OX death beat. 

559
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:33,280
He had to shut down his movable 
type net. 

560
00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,840
Over 100,000 of these were 
minted on on shape. 

561
00:30:36,840 --> 00:30:39,920
So perhaps this was what what 
drove some of the action over on

562
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:42,280
shape. 
We had our blocks curated back 

563
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:47,480
with their first new fidgetal 
drop from MP cause Boca where 

564
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:52,160
you you can get these lamps, 
sculptures, lighting, digital 

565
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,840
works and they come along with 
the digital NFT as well. 

566
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,920
This was just the 1st 20. 
There will be a a 300 piece sale

567
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,800
on the 21st. 
I think that is Monday. 

568
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,480
And then rounding this out, we 
saw die with the most likes sell

569
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:10,720
his noble pep base card at point
O69 ETH in a gas war and that 

570
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:15,360
immediately ran to .469 Logan. 
Curious to any reactions on your

571
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:17,800
side on the art drops. 
What perhaps what was your 

572
00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:19,520
favorite or or surprise of the 
day? 

573
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,640
Oh, favorite. 
I love deaf beef, the work that 

574
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:26,640
he does, the innovation. 
So that that's a really cool 1. 

575
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:30,680
I actually did not participate. 
I don't really know why I didn't

576
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,520
participate, but I I think that 
was a really cool one. 

577
00:31:32,960 --> 00:31:36,640
Lots of innovation in the in the
work that he does, but gremlin, 

578
00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:39,600
it's tough not to love gremlin 
in the style that Gremlin does. 

579
00:31:40,560 --> 00:31:44,760
Those are really, really great. 
Shout out toads a relic at this 

580
00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:49,120
point. 
So, so cool to see Gremlin back 

581
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:50,880
in in the streets. 
It was, it was just a good 

582
00:31:50,880 --> 00:31:56,000
positive day of art, you know, 
So that's, that's awesome to 

583
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:57,440
see. 
Quickly, do you? 

584
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:01,320
There's been a lot of talk about
meme meme and a tease and cults.

585
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:04,640
Do you feel like Kryptodes are 
still a cult meme memes? 

586
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:07,320
Do you feel like they are 
perhaps going to catch some love

587
00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:11,840
in this rally? 
I don't know sleeping potential 

588
00:32:11,840 --> 00:32:14,320
giant. 
I think the, you know, this is 

589
00:32:14,320 --> 00:32:17,360
the you would you always show 
that the little roller coaster 

590
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:18,640
bigger loop, smaller, loop 
smaller. 

591
00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:22,080
I think the loop potential is 
smaller for toads than it once 

592
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:24,800
was, but there there's still 
something in there. 

593
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:26,360
Yeah, there's still something in
there. 

594
00:32:26,720 --> 00:32:30,840
Sad. 
Well, shout out to to Gremplin. 

595
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,960
Perhaps he will kick start a 
toads run later today just to 

596
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:36,880
prove Logan wrong. 
That's going to be a a quick 

597
00:32:36,880 --> 00:32:39,480
round up of the market. 
We kept it tight today like I 

598
00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:41,440
promised, but we need to get 
into Arbitrum though. 

599
00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:45,960
Arbitrum folks once again has 
been cooking just to start at a 

600
00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:50,000
high level. 
AJ Warner here shared their new 

601
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:55,520
partnerships from 2024. 
Robin Hood, Paxos, Franklin 

602
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:59,560
Templeton, then in games, 
Ubisoft, Apecoin, Uzuki, Senko. 

603
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:02,080
And this is about as big as it 
gets, right? 

604
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:04,600
I mean, there's some major, 
major names. 

605
00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:07,760
They've launched nearly 100 
orbit chains. 

606
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:13,720
We also saw the the orbit 
Arbitrum orbit road map here, 

607
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:18,400
everything that they are focused
on from custom ability, 

608
00:33:18,600 --> 00:33:22,640
decentralization, Dev X interop 
and and performance. 

609
00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:26,480
So clearly orbit laying the 
groundwork for so many chains, 

610
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:30,160
so many builders and they 
continue to iterate on their 

611
00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:33,960
product. 
And then they've they've got 

612
00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:37,280
some action on the D Gen. side. 
So their their meme coin 

613
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:42,640
platform Gu trade that's getting
close 95% of the way there. 

614
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:49,280
And then noteworthy this week is
Apefest is coming and Ape Chain 

615
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,040
is powered by Arbitrum Orbit. 
I know they're going to have a 

616
00:33:52,040 --> 00:33:56,720
MIT with the their BMWM driver's
licenses. 

617
00:33:56,720 --> 00:34:01,200
Plus, I'm sure there's a lot of 
surprises in store for Ape Fest 

618
00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:03,640
this weekend. 
Logie, I know you, you dug into 

619
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:05,200
this a bit, kind of what jumped 
out to you. 

620
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:08,880
What were some of your takeaways
from what Arbitrum's got going 

621
00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:10,960
here this week? 
Yeah, so the Ape Fest stuff is 

622
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:12,880
awesome. 
I think Ape Chain is a sleeping 

623
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,000
giant. 
You have the banana bill like 

624
00:34:15,000 --> 00:34:16,320
there. 
There's a lot I'm excited to 

625
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,920
see. 
What types of apps and just 

626
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,760
consumer opportunities exist? 
So really excited for this. 

627
00:34:22,679 --> 00:34:26,560
Also too, though, the the orbit 
chains to Segway back to the 

628
00:34:26,560 --> 00:34:28,800
state of crypto. 
You may have noticed that if you

629
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:32,760
dig a little bit deeper, there's
mention of proof of play and 

630
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:35,560
just the the growth and 
infrastructure scaling of 

631
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,480
Arbitrum orbit. 
Proof of play, I think is like 

632
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:42,360
the top three of four in terms 
of what's listed on that state 

633
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:46,719
of crypto from A16Z. 
So just an incredible growth, 

634
00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:50,000
incredible new innovation and 
scaling for some of these 

635
00:34:50,000 --> 00:34:53,840
massive, massive games. 
So shout out proof of play and 

636
00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:55,440
and Arbitrum leading the way 
there. 

637
00:34:55,719 --> 00:35:00,400
It'll be really cool to see what
other things come as a result of

638
00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,960
that innovation now that you can
actually get so many people 

639
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:05,800
playing these games without the 
scaling issues that have 

640
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:08,040
previously existed. 
Yeah. 

641
00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:13,120
No, it's they continue to power 
so much of the ecosystem. 

642
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,400
And if we take a look back at 
arbitrage, I mean, it's yeah, 

643
00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:21,760
it's 6% of the builders and that
doesn't even factor in all the 

644
00:35:21,760 --> 00:35:24,960
orbit chains. 
So so clearly a significant part

645
00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:27,080
4. 
Four of the top five, I just 

646
00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:28,240
pulled it up on second screen 
here. 

647
00:35:28,240 --> 00:35:32,240
Four of the top five are 
arbitrage settlements for those 

648
00:35:32,240 --> 00:35:35,360
the gaming and the TPS, the M 
gas per second. 

649
00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:40,320
So leading the way in terms of 
scaling and and opportunity for 

650
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:43,720
for growth there. 
In Robin Hood, this Robin Hood 

651
00:35:43,720 --> 00:35:45,840
app is going to be 1 to watch. 
I think a headline that we saw 

652
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:51,280
yesterday was future trading on 
Bitcoin, Bitcoin futures, so 

653
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:53,360
similar to like your options 
type trading. 

654
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,400
I think that's going to be an 
interesting one. 

655
00:35:56,680 --> 00:36:00,000
We saw Paxos and their stable 
coin and then Franklin 

656
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:04,040
Templeton, of course, doing so 
much and then Ubisoft launching 

657
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,920
several web three games. 
It seems like they've got in the

658
00:36:06,960 --> 00:36:09,280
the cooker. 
So a lot more to come. 

659
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:12,840
It's already been a a big year, 
but a lot to look forward to 

660
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:17,600
certainly with them. 
All right folks, I think that is

661
00:36:17,640 --> 00:36:21,040
going to be it. 
We promise you 35 to 40 minutes 

662
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:23,160
a a tight show. 
We delivered it. 

663
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:26,320
Once again, I want to shout out 
to our listeners for tuning in 

664
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:28,600
to today's FOMO hour. 
That will be it. 

665
00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,440
We will be back tomorrow 
breaking down all of today's 

666
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:34,160
action. 
Maybe a special guest tomorrow. 

667
00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,200
We'll see. 
We're working on it +2 robot 

668
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:41,040
spins for our Friday show. 
As for today, go have a great 

669
00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:42,600
Thursday. 
Go make it a beautiful day. 

670
00:36:42,800 --> 00:36:43,000
Goodbye.
