00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:07,400
Good morning, good morning GMGM 
everyone, and welcome to another

2
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:15,400
episode of Omo Howard Today. 
Today is Friday, May 16th, 2025.

3
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:20,120
Books Sun is shining, the coins 
are green. 

4
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:23,120
Feels like we're set up for a 
bullish weekend here. 

5
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,000
I'm being told in the studio 
that it's Spark Coin Friday. 

6
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,280
I'm learning this in real time. 
We're going to find out together

7
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:31,600
exactly what that means on 
today's show. 

8
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:35,080
We've got a lot to talk about. 
I've got my Co host in the 

9
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:36,160
house. 
Baroque is back. 

10
00:00:36,480 --> 00:00:39,600
We've got Logan as well. 
Boys GM, how you doing Baroque 

11
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,280
live from Toronto? 
How's consensus? 

12
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,080
Live for Toronto, eh? 
You know they speak weird here. 

13
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,600
We're here. 
You know, I got to tell you I 

14
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,160
came to Toronto to make sure the
Leafs lose and as soon as I got 

15
00:00:52,160 --> 00:00:54,600
here, they got their asses group
6/1 the other night by the 

16
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,000
Panthers and tonight it makes 
they could be getting knocked 

17
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,080
out of the playoffs. 
So that's why I'm here. 

18
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:02,440
Tyler. 
Things are great. 

19
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:03,800
Things are great. 
I love the energy. 

20
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:07,240
Consensus is, see, like my 
favorite conference every time, 

21
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:09,520
whether it's in Hong Kong or 
anywhere they do it. 

22
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:11,920
And I have to say, I have to 
give it to the Coindesk team. 

23
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:14,360
This is one of the highest 
quality conferences. 

24
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,040
I've been out again, again and 
again to keep doing it. 

25
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:19,480
And I say that every time they 
do it, but it's really good. 

26
00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:22,560
Yeah, they're really strong. 
I went to the the consensus in 

27
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:25,160
Austin a couple months back. 
See, that's the one that just 

28
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,600
moved up here. 
It's impressive, man. 

29
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:30,040
It's impressive. 
Yeah, a lot of high caliber 

30
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,000
folks, really, really well done.
So shout out to Coin Desk that 

31
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,000
looks like we got Mando during 
the studio. 

32
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:42,760
Look at his new background as 
well rocking the. 

33
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:46,480
Shirt we love. 
It rocking the shirt today. 

34
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,120
I think I've got a different 
background actually, maybe one 

35
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,680
because my head when it's black 
like this, it just kind of. 

36
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:52,920
Yeah. 
You know, it just kind of gets 

37
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:54,960
you. 
That's all right, Mano. 

38
00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,040
GM how are you doing? 
I'm doing great. 

39
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,480
How are you are we live? 
Yeah, we're live. 

40
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,600
We are live. 
Yeah, you came in right during 

41
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,160
the intros. 
Perfect timing. 

42
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,840
And it's going around the horn. 
Logan, Jay. 

43
00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:11,039
Good morning. 
Doing well, fighting off some 

44
00:02:11,039 --> 00:02:14,320
early morning rain here in 
Pennsylvania, but otherwise, 

45
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:16,120
can't complain. 
Excited to be here. 

46
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:16,800
Happy Friday. 
Yeah. 

47
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,360
Happy Friday to everyone, folks.
What are we talking about on 

48
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:21,640
today's show? 
We're going to start with the 

49
00:02:21,640 --> 00:02:23,480
market report. 
More institutions are buying. 

50
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:26,080
Bob Lucas says we're going to 
all time high in six days. 

51
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,600
So we're going to talk about is 
he right or not? 

52
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:32,400
Arthur Hayes has laid out his 
latest essay calling for $1 

53
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,680
million Bitcoin by the end of 
the Trump administration. 

54
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,720
It's also Fart Coin Fridays, so 
we're going to find out what 

55
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:39,800
that means and what the hell FAR
Coin is going to do from here. 

56
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,200
Coin bases bad day got worse 
yesterday. 

57
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,240
We've got FX Distro 2 coming out
the end of this month. 

58
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:46,880
We got a new draft of the Genius
Act. 

59
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:50,400
Kaido continues to outperform. 
Along with the hype, we're going

60
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:52,600
to talk about the latest rewards
that are giving out over 

61
00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:56,280
6,000,000, that current pricing.
We've got the launch coins 

62
00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,200
ecosystem cooling off rotations,
perhaps back to memes. 

63
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:04,440
We've got a new AINT game that 
Logan has been grinding, the 

64
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:08,520
Frankly Gods hack breakdown plus
more, plus triple yeet action 

65
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:10,560
today folks, we haven't done it 
the last few days. 

66
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:12,200
We are going to make up for it 
today. 

67
00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,480
Triple yeet action. 
The code is weakened, so go 

68
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:19,600
ahead and and get in and 
grinding for that one. 

69
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:22,200
We're going to be giving away a 
lot of cash at the end of the 

70
00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:23,960
show. 
Before we dive in, shout out to 

71

app, you've seen wallet connect 

74
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,680

All right, you know, if you're 
ready, let's get into it. 

79
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:54,120
Thanks man. 
Who is the man Macro Bloody of 

80
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:58,840
the Lamb? 
Can you dig it? 

81
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:02,400
Yeah, GM everyone. 
So we have a little bit of a 

82
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,680
better day. 
It feels like today most of my 

83
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,320
the coins I'm tracking are up. 
Since when? 

84
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:12,040
We showed since the show 
yesterday, not that much in 

85
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,800
terms of macro. 
We had obviously a little bit of

86
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:20,160
a miss on PPI yesterday. 
Stocks had no K day in the end 

87
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,000
and they've been relatively 
quiet today. 

88
00:04:24,600 --> 00:04:26,520
It feels as though the biggest 
headline yesterday was the 

89
00:04:26,520 --> 00:04:32,800
Coinbase news, which I guess is 
a big bit of news if you care 

90
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,040
about Coinbase stock, which went
down quite a bit. 

91
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:37,760
But other than that, it didn't 
really affect the market. 

92
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,280
Bitcoin's still hanging out at 
this 104K level. 

93
00:04:41,280 --> 00:04:42,960
It's been good that it's kind of
been anchored there. 

94
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:47,480
Even though gold has had a 
little bit lower Bitcoin 

95
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,760
dominance as well. 
Hasn't hasn't just reversed. 

96
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,440
I think last time we saw this 
move in Bitcoin dominance, it 

97
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:58,680
went, it went down and then just
like immediately almost 

98
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,880
reversed. 
And it's actually gone down 

99
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:05,080
again a bit today. 
So interesting to see if this 

100
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:07,560
kind of trend continues. 
Obviously, I've been saying like

101
00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,160
I'm, I'm more bullish on ETH 
right now and that could 

102
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,400
continue. 
But Bitcoin dominance has gone 

103
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:16,480
back it, it kind of hit 63 1/2, 
just it's now back below 63. 

104
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,680
So maybe we will see a bit more 
of a sustained period here of, 

105
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:27,240
of altcoins outperforming or at 
least ETH outperforming not 

106
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:31,640
really much on meme coins. 
It feels as though the there's 

107
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:35,280
been a bit of wind out the sails
of the of the recent matters. 

108
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,800
The biggest mover I see is with 
which is interestingly catching 

109
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:45,160
a bit of a bid and maybe some of
the the more ETH based meme 

110
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,400
coins are outperforming slightly
today, like Pepe and MOG are 

111
00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:51,240
outperforming far coin again. 
I'm keeping being so surprised 

112
00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:54,720
at this coin like it doesn't 
it's been trending here for a 

113
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:59,040
while. 
It feels like now like kind of 

114
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:02,040
feels like it was at this level.
Was that one point? 

115
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:07,360
Yeah, was that one point two 
basically in April about two 

116
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:09,480
months ago hit hit kind of this 
sort of level and it's been 

117
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,040
hanging out ever since, which 
has been strange to me. 

118
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:14,400
I do think one day very soon 
that one's going to have a bit 

119
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:18,440
of a decent move. 
But maybe it's just the PDP 

120
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:22,400
nature of soul at the moment or 
just naturally of soul that's 

121
00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:25,880
causing that hyper liquid. 
As you have been tweeting out, 

122
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,080
Tyler's probably the the biggest
gainer in L ones. 

123
00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,680
It was kind of I think mentioned
in that Arthur Hayes piece too 

124
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:38,080
that you know he's looking for 
alt coins with decent product 

125
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,760
market fit slash utility at the 
moment and that one fit fit the 

126
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:46,800
bill, yeah, but not not much 
else other than that. 

127
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:51,240
Most of the other ones are up 
slightly, but it's definitely 

128
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:52,680
high beneath. 
Which are which are the 

129
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:56,760
strongest? 
Yeah, I think that's the 

130
00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,560
rundown. 
There really wasn't a whole lot 

131
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,760
on the on the macro side. 
I'll come back to the coins here

132
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,480
in a second. 
I think we had the Coinbase we 

133
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,720
talked about the Coinbase 
exploit on on yesterday's show. 

134
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,000
I don't think we really need to 
go back through that. 

135
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:15,520
It does feel like the reactions 
kind of got worse as the day 

136
00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:21,360
went on as more and more folks 
kind of realized the scale of 

137
00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:25,080
the data that was leaked, 
exactly what it was addresses, 

138
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:29,040
photo IDs, It's bad. 
It's it's serious. 

139
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:33,120
And it does feel like they it 
was, it was a lack of internal 

140
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:36,720
controls, effectively offshore 
customer support teams that were

141
00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,200
bribed and enabled this to 
happen. 

142
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:43,800
But at the same, I mean, the 
market's shaking it off today. 

143
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:50,000
Coinbase up 6% so out outpacing 
the the majors. 

144
00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:54,280
That's that's, that's surprising
the coin stock today after 

145
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:57,440
yesterday's events. 
Yeah, I'm surprised as well. 

146
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,560
They also the news came out in 
the second-half of the day that 

147
00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,640
they're facing the an inquiry 
from the SEC. 

148
00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:07,600
Isn't that an old one? 
Is it I I I saw the the the 

149
00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:08,800
headline come through, I 
thought. 

150
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:10,600
It was lingering, yeah. 
From Biden admin. 

151
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,480
I'm not sure I'm 100%, but I saw
something like this from Paul. 

152
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:18,520
There's Chief Legal, but yeah, 
that you'd think that it would 

153
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,320
be down today, which is 
impressive. 

154
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,000
Yeah, exactly. 
So people are are are shaking it

155
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,680
off. 
I don't know. 

156
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,960
It feels like a lot of brand 
damage has been done and we'll 

157
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:34,360
we'll see if it's a less 
comfortable to custody your 

158
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:37,200
coins with Coinbase knowing that
this has all happened. 

159
00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:44,600
Yeah, it feels like a quiet day 
overall, both for macro and for 

160
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,520
and for crypto. 
Like if the biggest news is kind

161
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,920
of yesterday's Coinbase 
headline, then so much we can be

162
00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:55,320
shocked about the customer data 
for 1% of users being lost, 

163
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,040
right? 
Well, I think we don't, we don't

164
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,520
believe that it's 1%, I think. 
That's saying, yeah, it could be

165
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:02,080
more. 
I want to hear more about you. 

166
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:03,400
For Rogue, how's consensus 
going? 

167
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:04,880
Like what? 
What's the vibe there? 

168
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:09,560
It's good, man. 
I got my Canadian flag in honour

169
00:09:09,560 --> 00:09:12,040
of consensus going on in the 
background. 

170
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,240
It's great. 
Honestly, I was hitting at the 

171
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:15,360
top of the show. 
Mando. 

172
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:16,960
It's it's always like the best 
conferences. 

173
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:18,560
These people know how to do it 
and do it right. 

174
00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,440
The quality of the people that 
are here is pretty big, like a 

175
00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,640
lot of large founders because 
you know, it's North America, 

176
00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:24,920
right? 
So everyone came up from like 

177
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,120
New York or like Miami, 
whatever. 

178
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,640
A lot of people from Canada, 
right, Like Canada, you know, as

179
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:33,560
much as they try to fight this 
crypto evolution, revolution, 

180
00:09:33,560 --> 00:09:36,720
you know, is home to some of the
largest, biggest founders in 

181
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:40,680
crypto, right? 
And so it's really impressive to

182
00:09:40,680 --> 00:09:42,080
be here. 
The conference is really good. 

183
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,480
Some heavy panelists. 
So yesterday I was speaking at 

184
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:48,240
11 AM and Kevin O'Leary just so 
happened to speak at the same 

185
00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:50,960
time as me. 
So, so my panel was, you know, 

186
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,840
half empty because of Mr. 
Wonderful. 

187
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:57,240
I'm sure you had some great 
thoughts on the future of crypto

188
00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:01,760
and and his backing of SBF, you 
know, but besides that, you 

189
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,760
know, Dave Portnoy also 
definitely had a lot of good 

190
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,400
things to say, you know, because
he knows a lot about crypto and 

191
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,960
so he was saying perhaps XRP 
could become next Bitcoin. 

192
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,480
So you know, it was really great
to see those headline speakers 

193
00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,080
that really, really care about 
our space. 

194
00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:17,560
But besides that, you know, they
they brought like Eric Trump out

195
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,200
or is he today? 
Is it today? 

196
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,960
I think it's today. 
And they brought some some 

197
00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:23,600
really, really high quality 
people on the side. 

198
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:27,080
Events are just really good. 
So been good, Mando, it's been 

199
00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:30,760
good, some some good business 
being done and and some some, 

200
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:31,920
you know, some great people to 
see. 

201
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:33,480
I spent some time with the bear 
chain founders. 

202
00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:37,880
Finally got to meet Smokey 
tonight and and Yogi some good 

203
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,240
lads too. 
They got some really cool stuff 

204
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,280
going on and and the people love
myriad. 

205
00:10:41,320 --> 00:10:44,560
You know, I every time now we 
that's how I know we're starting

206
00:10:44,560 --> 00:10:47,000
to get a lot of users because 
like when people come up to me 

207
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:48,880
and before was like, Yo, I 
listen to the morning show and 

208
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,800
stuff like that. 
Still get that, and they love 

209
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:54,680
you guys, but now it's like, yo,
like I've been predicting and 

210
00:10:54,680 --> 00:10:56,280
collecting my points and I'm 
like, fuck, yeah. 

211
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,880
So it's like, that's how you 
know that your thing's starting 

212
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:04,320
to work out, you know? 
That's very good to hear. 

213
00:11:05,680 --> 00:11:08,960
Logan just just did his weekly 
rundown of the, the myriad 

214
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:10,840
markets, the hot markets from 
this week. 

215
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,280
So if you're looking to to get 
some action and go go check that

216
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:15,520
out. 
Well, it's Friday. 

217
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,120
I thought it might make sense to
just do a little fun like 

218
00:11:18,880 --> 00:11:20,800
thoughts on on some of the 
tokens as Manda mentioned, 

219
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:25,200
there's not a whole lot of news 
today on the Bitcoin front. 

220
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:30,520
A couple interesting tweets 
posts, technical analysis that I

221
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:34,480
saw so one this summary headline
of the institution buying from 

222
00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:35,800
this week was a was a pretty big
one. 

223
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,160
Goldman Sachs up to 1.65 Abu 
Dhabi up to 511. 

224
00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:43,240
This new Hong Kong company 860 
million so that that trend 

225
00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:47,400
continues. 
Bob Lucas shared his latest 

226
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:52,320
Bitcoin TA a couple days ago and
it is calling. 

227
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,880
He's saying we were this was 2 
days ago, day 37 of the 60 day 

228
00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:02,360
cycle calling for Bitcoin all 
time high 110K day 45 that is 

229
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:06,080
next Thursday. 
So I'm I'm curious for this 

230
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:11,520
group's thoughts you are you in 
line with Bob? 

231
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:17,000
Do you think we we touch all 
time high levels next week or 

232
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:21,560
are you saying we're not quite 
there yet and I'll throw to you.

233
00:12:23,360 --> 00:12:28,280
I think there's a lot of air 
between between 103A110K. 

234
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,480
Like 110K has been like a point 
of resistance a bunch of times. 

235
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:39,320
Like if you look at it, it hit 
it once once or maybe it's like 

236
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:43,040
100 and 708 K, but it hit it 
multiple times in that second 

237
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:47,720
period. 
I'm not going to hit all time 

238
00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,280
high. 
We may get an all time high 

239
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,560
close. 
Do you know what I mean? 

240
00:12:51,560 --> 00:12:56,160
Like I think it could. 
There's no doubt it's about to 

241
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:57,760
tap that level of resistance, 
right? 

242
00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,880
There's literally just no doubt 
because that's been where it's 

243
00:12:59,880 --> 00:13:04,880
hit so many times. 
It just it, it may stick around 

244
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,480
there or it may smash through. 
My guess is we've probably got 

245
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,160
it, hits it once and then goes 
back down and then hits it maybe

246
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,440
once or twice more. 
Yeah, if you look at the closes,

247
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:17,480
it doesn't look like we really 
ever closed much above one of 

248
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:19,440
the six. 
Right, exactly. 

249
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:20,760
That's what I've been. 
Yeah. 

250
00:13:21,560 --> 00:13:25,520
So I mean we're, we're, yeah, 
we're right back at the top of 

251
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:30,000
this range and we want to be 
cautious about, you know, being 

252
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:34,120
super bullish at the top of the 
range as always. 

253
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:39,720
But like this recent price 
action, we, we got to what 94 we

254
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:43,760
we chopped there for two weeks 
then we leveled up now one O 3, 

255
00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,800
one O 4 shopping there for a 
full week now. 

256
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,280
And the question is how much 
longer are we going to 

257
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:50,880
consolidate here for Oak 
Firmable? 

258
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,720
What are your thoughts? 
Dude, I honestly, I'm so 

259
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,840
surprised that we haven't broken
down yet to like back to like 

260
00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,080
like we kissed 100 that other 
day and that's it. 

261
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,640
So I at this stage I'm like, 
wow, because but first you're 

262
00:14:02,720 --> 00:14:05,800
like, we haven't broken, you 
know, above that one O 4 top 

263
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,120
range yet. 
We're probably going to get 

264
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,400
smacked back down. 
But now he's like, wait, we're 

265
00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:12,640
holding really strong up there. 
And, and the news are only good 

266
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,880
in the political side. 
I don't know if you guys saw 

267
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,520
like Fox, like broke down like 
Trump's, like the recent trip to

268
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:19,120
the Middle East and how 
successful it's been like, 

269
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:21,560
arguably like one of the most 
successful Middle Eastern trips 

270
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:24,160
in history of an American 
president. 

271
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,480
And, and I'm looking at all 
these investments being done and

272
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,280
all these, all these deals being
made with NVIDIA and everything.

273
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:34,040
And then I'm looking at the 
price of bitcoins and I'm 

274
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:35,680
obviously live getting 
sentiment. 

275
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:38,000
So it doesn't help, right, 
Because everyone's so bullish at

276
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:39,840
events right now, right? 
So it's like you that life 

277
00:14:39,840 --> 00:14:41,400
sentiment. 
Well, it does help. 

278
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,120
I don't know. 
So I don't know, tough for me to

279
00:14:44,960 --> 00:14:47,600
tough for me so far, you know, 
we are still in May, but we 

280
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:49,920
survived the first half of May 
without selling off. 

281
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:52,960
And now if we could just 
liquidate that fart coin white 

282
00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,920
whale that's short on 
hyperliquid and I'll be fine. 

283
00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:00,560
I get the sentiment that that 
folks want to, they want to sell

284
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:02,160
them and go away. 
Like everyone wants to take the 

285
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:04,280
summer off. 
Like that's the sentiment I get 

286
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:08,880
on the timeline, but there 
there's too much action right 

287
00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,160
now to do that. 
Logan, curious for your 

288
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:12,240
thoughts. 
Yeah. 

289
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,400
I, I actually, I feel like this 
consolidation range, if you'd 

290
00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:19,440
like to call it that, for what 
the last few weeks, I don't 

291
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:23,520
know, the days blur together, 
but feels, you know, I'm not the

292
00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:26,360
macro expert here, of course, 
but it feels really healthy to 

293
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,880
me or it's felt more healthy. 
I know yesterday we mentioned 

294
00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,960
like a little bit of a lingering
feeling of the uncertainty and 

295
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:37,400
uneasiness of like more sailor 
like institutions coming in and 

296
00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:38,680
what, what does that actually 
mean? 

297
00:15:38,680 --> 00:15:42,200
We had a good debate about that.
But I, I, I still feel OK here 

298
00:15:42,200 --> 00:15:47,000
and I, I think breaking upwards 
towards that number is, is 

299
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:49,720
totally in play. 
I don't necessarily know what it

300
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:52,440
Bob has it like in two days or 
something, In six days or 

301
00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:53,840
something. 
Crazy thing like that next 

302
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:57,400
Thursday. 
Yeah, I, I, I won't venture to 

303
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,880
guess or put an actual date on 
that, but I, I do feel, I don't 

304
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,880
know, just a lingering goodness,
if you want to call it that, 

305
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:08,880
about this recent consolidation.
And everything feels a little 

306
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:11,280
bit lighter. 
But the, the craziness is, of 

307
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:14,400
course, the, the volatility and 
the uncertainty of whatever 

308
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:18,400
Trump might post on social media
in the next 24 hours could 

309
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,400
completely, you know, spin that 
thesis on its head and, you 

310
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,160
know, in microseconds. 
So that's the that's the world 

311
00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:26,520
we live in. 
And need to remind ourselves 

312
00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:31,520
that we were at 77 KA month ago.
So this has been a a big move. 

313
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,080
But just look, I mean, all the 
dips recently have been bit up 

314
00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:35,920
pretty fast. 
I think folk, you kind of 

315
00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,960
mentioned that it's like there 
really hasn't been much of A dip

316
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,160
at all. 
The other the other one we want 

317
00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,400
to watch here. 
ETH outperformed again on the 

318
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:50,280
day. 
Up up more than Bitcoin looks 

319
00:16:50,280 --> 00:16:59,680
like it's OK ETH the 4K. 
Imagine the smell around 54. 

320
00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:04,680
Ki love the transition of Mando 
into like the arguably the 

321
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:11,079
biggest E bull. 
He's like Cecil and and you 

322
00:17:11,079 --> 00:17:16,440
know, bank list and all those 
guys DC, they put up Eric, Eric 

323
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,119
Trump. 
They've put up with so much shit

324
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,640
in the last few weeks, year, 
year and a half to year and a 

325
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,000
half, right. 
Oh, year and a half of this and 

326
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:30,400
now men comes in balls swinging 
calling it the 4K and so happens

327
00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:35,720
to be potentially right. 
I'm just telling you like, yeah,

328
00:17:37,120 --> 00:17:43,440
two years of underperformance, 
it's up what, 25% versus 

329
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:46,800
Bitcoin, something like that. 
There's a lot of pent up sexual.

330
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:49,280
If. 
It if it really wants to go 

331
00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,920
here. 
Oh, it's, it's, you know, 

332
00:17:51,920 --> 00:17:53,760
Ethan's going to blow its load 
at some point. 

333
00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,040
Less than less than 48th, we'll 
get you a Bitcoin now. 

334
00:17:58,920 --> 00:18:04,440
Well I was like 55 a week ago. 
55, which was just an outrageous

335
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:08,760
number in in in that moment. 
So hopefully you didn't swap 

336
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:12,360
your ETH to Bitcoin at that at 
that bottom. 

337
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:14,240
The other token I want to get 
thoughts on. 

338
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:19,760
I know one that that's near and 
dear to to your heart there far 

339
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:22,800
oak is far coin. 
It's far coin Friday, so I so 

340
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,240
let's talk about it. 
And this thing has been grinding

341
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:29,240
up. 
It is just cup and handling cup 

342
00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,160
and handling, but never really 
breaking out right, like we're 

343
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:35,640
seeing we're seeing like the 20%
breakouts. 

344
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,760
A reminder for folks, if you're 
not in the stream that weekend 

345
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,640
is the code weekend is the code 
for eat action today coming up 

346
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:47,000
later in the show. 
I've seen this chart before in 

347
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:54,720
me, the steady legs up like 
this, and it typically happened 

348
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:59,120
before a big breakout. 
I feel like the inevitable 

349
00:18:59,120 --> 00:19:00,480
breakout is coming at some 
point. 

350
00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,640
I don't know when and I don't 
know what the catalyst is going 

351
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:02,920
to be. 
It's. 

352
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:06,120
Going to happen. 
You just got to believe, you 

353
00:19:06,120 --> 00:19:07,960
know, You just got to believe. 
I know dude. 

354
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:11,560
On my way to consensus, it was 
like 147 and I was like euphoric

355
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,520
as fuck. 
I should have known like on my 

356
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:19,080
train right here. 
I was like going crazy and yeah,

357
00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,560
again, we got smacked back down.
Feel like there's a lot of 

358
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,760
pressure on what, like 1:30 What
is 138? 

359
00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,000
Something's going on, man. 
There's, I don't know, It's, I 

360
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:30,720
like it. 
I like it. 

361
00:19:30,840 --> 00:19:33,080
I think it's going to, I think 
it's going to break out at some 

362
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:34,680
point and it'll look good, you 
know? 

363
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,920
What's your target if we break 
out from the 145 range? 

364
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:43,000
160 and then two. 
That would be annoying if we 

365
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,040
just keep going up $0.15. 
I know I mean. 

366
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,040
It's very possible. 
I mean, that's, that's the more 

367
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:52,280
likely next level, yeah. 
Man, you never know, man, 

368
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:55,160
Bitcoin goes to all time high, 
Ethereum goes up, Solana goes 

369
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:57,360
crazy too, and then you know, 
then the slights on. 

370
00:19:57,360 --> 00:20:02,640
But I don't know it's it's it's 
it could be frustrating. 

371
00:20:03,360 --> 00:20:06,440
It could be frustrating, but you
just got to I believe I I still 

372
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:10,240
have fat ass position on and I'm
just going to wait when I'm when

373
00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:11,920
I'm. 
Conference travelling. 

374
00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:13,960
I'm hands off. 
It's my rule. 

375
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,480
You got to just believe. 
It's good as sleep adjusted risk

376
00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:22,320
point at this point. 
That's what you want to do right

377
00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:27,800
now. 
Sleep adjusted may get some 

378
00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:31,080
sleep adjusted returns. 
That's not that's actually not a

379
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,200
bad idea. 
Launch coin has not been the 

380
00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,520
most sleep adjusted hold by any 
means. 

381
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:40,160
It's incredibly volatile. 
I don't think we need to spend a

382
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:41,760
whole lot of time on it here 
today. 

383
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:43,600
We've been hitting it pretty 
hard this week. 

384
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:46,440
It's at 180 million, down 30% on
the day. 

385
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:49,400
It looks like passion X kind of 
come out and said, A, we're 

386
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:51,640
going to slow things down and 
then B, there's been some fun 

387
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:55,720
around fees and and how the the 
different creators are getting 

388
00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:57,200
them, He said. 
We're going to try to make some 

389
00:20:57,200 --> 00:21:00,160
adjustments. 
I think this is going to be an 

390
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,440
interesting next week for them. 
I think we'll have to figure out

391
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:07,400
some next moves, perhaps some 
announcements and it wouldn't 

392
00:21:07,400 --> 00:21:09,920
surprise me if they kind of 
chop, wouldn't surprise me if it

393
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,120
kind of chops and bleeds a bit 
over this weekend. 

394
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,680
I think it peaked the ecosystem 
was around 500 million. 

395
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:18,720
It's around 280 million right 
now. 

396
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:24,000
And the daily volume down about 
60% fees down as well. 

397
00:21:24,000 --> 00:21:26,840
So, so not as you surprised the 
fees are down if the volume is 

398
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:30,360
down, but it's going to be a 
pivotal next few days for that. 

399
00:21:30,360 --> 00:21:32,480
I think perhaps it's more 
interesting to talk about as 

400
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,960
Kaido continues to grind up. 
Man, this thing's at 2 billion 

401
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,560
two dollars. 
This is on the back of their 

402
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:42,440
latest rewards with Infinex. 
You guys see this? 

403
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:45,440
Somebody's posting me. 
I get I've got 6 grand coming to

404
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:49,320
me next week from this. 
What you were you been posting 

405
00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,600
about Infinex I? 
Haven't. 

406
00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:55,480
What do you mean? 
B check DM me and said look you 

407
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:58,200
get because you were like I I 
think I must have been a big 

408
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:02,800
yapper last week, which I don't 
know, and they just he just has 

409
00:22:02,800 --> 00:22:05,680
to be pacing me opposed to me 
being like you've got 6 grander 

410
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,760
rewards coming. 
Wait, how do we check that? 

411
00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:11,160
Yeah, we need to share. 
That I've been yapping bro. 

412
00:22:11,160 --> 00:22:13,080
Hold on. 
I didn't get any DMS so I'm 

413
00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:14,400
going to say I'm not on the 
list. 

414
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,640
Which I don't know. 
I wanted to slam my desk when I 

415
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:25,040
saw this today. 
So just to give folks who who 

416
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,640
may not be familiar, Infinex has
been running a campaign on 

417
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:30,000
Kaido. 
They have been alluding that 

418
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:31,720
their top yappers would be very 
happy. 

419
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,120
They just announced that they 
are going to distribute $6 

420
00:22:35,120 --> 00:22:38,440
million at current prices in the
form of their You Patrons 

421
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:40,960
tokens. 
This season 0 is the season that

422
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:43,160
they just ran. 
They're going to have $600,000 

423
00:22:43,160 --> 00:22:47,400
in rewards, 900K for the next 
season 1 and then more for 

424
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:48,960
season 2 and season 3. 
Of course, that's the current 

425
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,800
prices, so the prices would have
to hold. 

426
00:22:51,160 --> 00:22:54,040
But anyways, I think that the 
the high level take away it's a 

427
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:57,440
pretty large rewards program, 
one of the largest we've seen on

428
00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:02,640
Kaido. 
The top yappers got 20 K. 

429
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:08,080
The bandit got 12 Ki think he 
was he was top five, top ten. 

430
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:10,600
So the folks who've been 
grinding this stuff and it's 

431
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:14,520
paying off and apparently Mando 
is getting 6K, which is. 

432
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:16,760
How did the rich keep getting 
richer? 

433
00:23:17,680 --> 00:23:20,160
Like maybe I did one of the 
Mando minutes maybe. 

434
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:23,040
It's it's crazy. 
Rich get richer, man. 

435
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:26,560
It's so crazy. 
I don't, yeah. 

436
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:28,720
I mean, it's possible to that. 
It's possible they're also just 

437
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:31,640
rewarding top yappers and they 
could also just, we've seen 

438
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:35,520
campaigns that like will give 
tokens to the top people on your

439
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:38,360
specific minds, your board, as 
well as people who are top of 

440
00:23:38,360 --> 00:23:40,600
the overall. 
Yeah, I can share my screen if I

441
00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,000
I can show you guys. 
So how do you see? 

442
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:43,920
Yeah, what do you see? 
This? 

443
00:23:47,040 --> 00:23:54,960
Let's see Mando's key. 
Someone just said Mando with the

444
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,480
bando. 
God damn it. 

445
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:02,800
Scroll scroll up. 
No, he just sent me a 

446
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,200
screenshot. 
I didn't see you this. 

447
00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:05,560
That's Adm from B check. 
Got it. 

448
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:10,240
Wow, interesting. 
I didn't ever find that 

449
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,000
leaderboard, so if anyone's got 
the yeah. 

450
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:14,200
I don't know where to see what 
he's seeing. 

451
00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,360
Like whatever B check found. 
I don't know where you find 

452
00:24:16,360 --> 00:24:20,040
that. 
But this was a big one. 

453
00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:25,600
And I think a couple takeaways. 
People in CT are going to see 

454
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:26,920
this. 
They're going to be more 

455
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,640
incentivized to talk about 
Infinex and other protocols 

456
00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:35,360
hoping for rewards like this. 
And then I mean, if you are a 

457
00:24:35,360 --> 00:24:39,560
founder, I think you have to at 
least have the conversation. 

458
00:24:40,720 --> 00:24:44,520
Like if you're thinking about 
marketing angles on on CT, you 

459
00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:46,920
have to at least think about it.
I'm not saying it's necessarily 

460
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:50,280
the right choice, but we made 
our. 

461
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,120
Call. 
We made our call. 

462
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,000
You want to disclose it or is it
a surprise? 

463
00:24:55,880 --> 00:25:00,960
Be a surprise. 
All right, there you have it 

464
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:05,560
folks. 
So the infinex #1 on the pre tge

465
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,760
board at Kaido right now, I 
think not a huge surprise on the

466
00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:11,160
back of this huge program. 
If you look at the seven day 

467
00:25:11,360 --> 00:25:16,960
pump fun abstract monad Newton 
open C Infinex in the top 6. 

468
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,560
So, so they're up there with 
some of the biggest protocols in

469
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,040
the space. 
If you zoom out a little bit, 

470
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:28,080
the 30 day board pump monad 
abstract here, IQ Open C Somnia,

471
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,920
Sofon, Mega Ethan Phoenix, so 
top 10. 

472
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:39,400
So I mean, these, these 
campaigns are enough to to get a

473
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:44,120
protocol like Infinix into the 
top ten of CT mindshare, which 

474
00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:46,400
isn't easy to do. 
It's very competitive. 

475
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:47,960
There's there's tons of 
protocols. 

476
00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:52,400
There's there's a lot of teams 
doing these things so it it it 

477
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:53,720
can work. 
I thought this was a pretty 

478
00:25:53,720 --> 00:26:00,280
balanced take from Adam Fern. 
Talking about pros and cons Pros

479
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:01,800
This is more from like the 
founder lens. 

480
00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:04,840
If you care about top of funnel,
probably no better place to 

481
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,320
spend it on Kaido gamification 
leaderboards. 

482
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,760
Fun. 
Great to see direct rewards to 

483
00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,560
creators without middle men. 
Cons mind chair does not always 

484
00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:16,680
lead to user growth or revenue. 
Some mercenary yappers are like 

485
00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:20,040
Locust Capital. 
Top accounts seem to be reaping 

486
00:26:20,040 --> 00:26:22,560
lion's share of the rewards. 
Some low quality AI slob. 

487
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,560
I mean that that's going to be 
pretty hard to avoid anywhere 

488
00:26:25,040 --> 00:26:26,160
right now. 
I think this is a pretty 

489
00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,640
balanced take. 
I says on the whole, I love 

490
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:29,960
seeing smart teams trying to do 
things. 

491
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:36,920
We'll continue to monitor. 
So it's working it this is it's 

492
00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:38,080
big. 
It doesn't seem like they're 

493
00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:41,440
going to flash in the pan. 
I think Kaido is going to 

494
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:47,080
continue being a thing in CT at 
least across 2025. 

495
00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:49,600
I think it's hard to project out
more than three to six months in

496
00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:52,560
this space in general just 
without fast trends change. 

497
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:59,200
It's it's hanging in there and 
and two billion, 2 billion FTV, 

498
00:27:01,680 --> 00:27:04,640
it's nice. 
So shout outs kind of they 

499
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:08,160
continue to do big things and 
those are some of the big 

500
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,320
topics. 
Logie, I thought maybe we want 

501
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:11,960
to talk about this. 
Yesterday we kind of ran out of 

502
00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:16,320
time. 
There's this big AINFT game 

503
00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,400
that's been going on with AI 
trading agents. 

504
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:22,880
GMO was talking about this. 
He's pitching it to folks. 

505
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:25,800
I think you got in. 
Tell us about this. 

506
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:28,080
What is it? 
Yeah, so it's been all over my 

507
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:30,560
timeline. 
If you've seen some Gremlin 

508
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:34,080
style art on yours, you're 
probably seeing the exact same 

509
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,880
thing, but it's a it's an AI 
trading agent trading 

510
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:39,880
simulation. 
So it's 30. 

511
00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:43,280
It's called DX terminal. 
It's from the DX research group.

512
00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,320
They did the singularity thing 
back in December. 

513
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:48,760
You may remember the big AI 
agent thing. 

514
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,480
It was like a streaming agent 
thing. 

515
00:27:52,320 --> 00:27:55,960
Tough to explain on on short 
notice here, but anyway, it's 

516
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:58,560
called DX terminal. 
If you search that on Twitter, 

517
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,920
Tyler DX research group, you'll 
be able to find it pretty 

518
00:28:00,920 --> 00:28:03,360
easily. 
There's a lot of yeah, exactly 

519
00:28:03,360 --> 00:28:04,400
that. 
So it's kind of like this 

520
00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,480
Windows 98 aesthetic that you 
see. 

521
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,040
They're very, very similar to 
that. 

522
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:13,480
But basically people minted 
these AI agents on base as NFTS 

523
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:18,400
and the agents themselves, 
there's 36,000 of them now are 

524
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,760
autonomously participating in 
this trading simulation over the

525
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,400
course of like 7 days. 
So what you're seeing in these 

526
00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,720
little gifts and screenshots is 
literally the agents working on 

527
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:30,040
them, you know, sorry, working 
themselves. 

528
00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:33,760
And the whole point is they are 
all, they're trained on Solana 

529
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:37,200
data, basically the, the entire 
history of Solana transactions. 

530
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:41,360
But they are basically trying to
earn as much of the in game 

531
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,480
currency, which is an off chain 
currency. 

532
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,760
It's called Webcoin. 
But they're basically trying to 

533
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:47,080
get as much as they possibly 
can. 

534
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,480
They're competing against each 
other just like they're normal 

535
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:53,480
crypto traders. 
And the people participating, us

536
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:56,680
humans participating can sort of
prompt them their language 

537
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:58,800
models basically, right? 
You can sort of prompt them like

538
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:03,320
you would ChatGPT to try to earn
more web coin on your behalf. 

539
00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,040
So I don't know if you've 
scrolled through, but you know, 

540
00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,600
people are trying to get them to
do pump and dumps like I was 

541
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:10,840
trying. 
I meant did a few and we were 

542
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:12,640
participating. 
I was trying to get my agents to

543
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,800
ask people to donate. 
Just had a pity and stuff like 

544
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:17,600
that. 
And it's just, it's really 

545
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:18,600
funny. 
I mean, if you scroll through, 

546
00:29:18,600 --> 00:29:20,920
there's lots and lots at least 
on my feed, which of course has 

547
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:24,400
now been, you know, overtaken by
just cause I've engaged with 

548
00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:26,320
some of this. 
But yeah, scroll up just a 

549
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:28,200
little bit tighter. 
Stop on that finger one there. 

550
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:29,960
Oops. 
Sorry. 

551
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:31,720
Just below. 
Yeah, right there. 

552
00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:33,480
See that? 
Yep, right there. 

553
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:38,720
Not to detract too much, but the
the simulation is also has these

554
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:43,240
macroeconomic events thrown in 
right to to just spice up stuff.

555
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,720
So there was a finger found in 
Wendy's chili which impacted the

556
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:50,640
price of food tokens within. 
And then the agents need to 

557
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:52,560
react to that. 
Or the humans, of course, right,

558
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:56,400
can prompt their agents to act 
in a certain way as it relates 

559
00:29:56,400 --> 00:29:59,400
to whatever has taken place. 
So there are a handful of things

560
00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:01,640
that occurred last night. 
And essentially this happens 

561
00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:04,240
over the course of a week in our
lifetime. 

562
00:30:04,240 --> 00:30:06,240
But for them, it's about 12 
years. 

563
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:08,800
So each day is about two years 
of lifetime. 

564
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:13,480
So they're kind of going through
cycles of crypto activity all at

565
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,800
once. 
So it's taking over my timeline.

566
00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:17,600
I think it's a really cool 
experiment. 

567
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,480
It's not necessarily like you're
speculatively driven thing that 

568
00:30:21,480 --> 00:30:25,000
you know, many people here are 
frothing over, right? 

569
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,520
This is an off chain currency 
web coin that is it's it's not a

570
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:33,760
real token, but nevertheless, 
it's a it's a fun experiment 

571
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:36,880
that people seem to be having a 
good time with, at least from my

572
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,040
perspective in reading. 
I was reading a lot of tweets 

573
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:43,160
this morning about it and people
are prompting their agents to do

574
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:46,960
all sorts of weird stuff. 
It's it's been pretty cool. 

575
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,960
So. 
This is not far off from the 

576
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:50,520
plot of the recent Black Mirror 
episode. 

577
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:52,240
I've got that simulation 
episode. 

578
00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,560
I'm not sure if folks saw that 
in fact, that the interface 

579
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:59,120
looks similar. 
So how, how do you play this 

580
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:00,520
Logan? 
You kind of, you kind of went in

581
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:04,000
there. 
It's like, how do you train your

582
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:05,640
agents? 
How do you make them good? 

583
00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:06,720
Like what? 
What, what? 

584
00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:08,760
The agents you have? 
I'm sorry. 

585
00:31:08,760 --> 00:31:10,520
Yeah. 
The the agents are already all 

586
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,160
trained themselves. 
When you mint them, they kind of

587
00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:18,080
come with like a unique persona,
right, That is based on actual 

588
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:22,040
human data in this in the form 
of Solana transactions, trading 

589
00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:26,200
transactions and stuff. 
So they have all that in order 

590
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,080
to play. 
I mean, you can really do as 

591
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:31,320
much as you want, right? 
You can be hands off and they 

592
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,000
will just act on their own 
behalf. 

593
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:37,520
They, they are trained to try to
acquire this web coin on their 

594
00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:38,440
own. 
So you don't have to do 

595
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:39,600
anything. 
They will try to do it on their 

596
00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:41,240
own, but then you can interact 
with them. 

597
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,000
You can prompt them as much as 
you want. 

598
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:46,160
I think there's like, you know, 
there's little buffers in there 

599
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,680
so you're not overdoing it and 
stuff, but you can ask them to 

600
00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,720
try to do things to try to 
acquire it if you wish. 

601
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:55,280
So there's, it's really up to 
you and how you wish to 

602
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:57,120
participate. 
Participating itself, like you 

603
00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,520
have to mint the NFTS or if you 
didn't mint, you can buy them on

604
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,600
secondary to participate. 
So you do need to have the NFT 

605
00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:06,400
to participate, but once you've 
got that, it's literally just 

606
00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,760
like interacting with ChatGPT 
more or less, right? 

607
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:13,040
Like you can type in and talk to
your agent and tell them to do 

608
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,360
stuff. 
So you can so you can kind of 

609
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,760
just do luck of the draw and 
just play the agents that you 

610
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,520
meant it or you could be more 
hands on like what? 

611
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:24,880
So what do you get if you win? 
So there is that. 

612
00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,120
That's part of it. 
There's there's nothing to get 

613
00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:33,120
if you win. 
Yeah, it's not like it's like 

614
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,440
the the web coin thing, it's off
chain. 

615
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:37,640
It's not a real token. 
So it's not like you are 

616
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:41,760
competing for, you know, 
millions of dollars worth of web

617
00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,960
coin. 
And I understand, I understand 

618
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:47,640
the like the little, you know, 
veil of disappointment that may 

619
00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:50,000
come over most of our space and 
hearing that. 

620
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,400
But it doesn't mean it doesn't 
mean that in the future like 

621
00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:56,840
something like this couldn't, 
you know, be undertaken with 

622
00:32:56,840 --> 00:33:00,720
real, you know, with real, real 
capital involved in some way or 

623
00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,360
not. 
But it Webcoin itself is an off 

624
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:04,880
chain currency. 
It's not a it's not a real 

625
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:06,360
token. 
The tokens in the game are not 

626
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:07,680
real tokens or anything like 
that all. 

627
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:10,560
Right. 
So from a trading perspective, 

628
00:33:10,560 --> 00:33:13,960
anyone who mented these with 
hopes of getting a profit is 

629
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:17,280
just out out of luck. 
Yeah, but this is another 

630
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:21,120
example of crypto Twitter just 
like, and crypto participants in

631
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,960
general just like not not caring
to do any due diligence at all. 

632
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:28,120
Like if you read or look at the 
white paper like it's, it's 

633
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:31,440
pretty clear that like it's an 
off chain currency and you know,

634
00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:35,520
and all those things. 
But yeah, I, I don't, I don't 

635
00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:42,080
expect there to be anyone here 
who is overly victorious 

636
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:46,080
financially in any way. 
Got it. 

637
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:51,200
Well, it's an interesting game 
for for sure. 

638
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:56,040
I'm curious kind of where they 
or they take this what, what, 

639
00:33:56,040 --> 00:33:58,720
what happens next if if they do 
another season, if they figure 

640
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,720
out a way to do prizes. 
But clearly some folks are 

641
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:06,920
excited about it and a lot of 
work went into it as well on the

642
00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:11,080
NFT front of ones that are being
traded for profit. 

643
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:15,800
This refik and all meant, have 
you seen this one Biomalumina? 

644
00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:23,560
He sold 1000 of these at $5000 a
pop a few days ago, raised 

645
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:29,760
$5,000,000 in about 25 minutes, 
and now the NFTS are at 4.4 ETH.

646
00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:35,199
They have not revealed yet 4.4 
around $11,500 or so. 

647
00:34:35,199 --> 00:34:38,520
So anyone invented up a quick 
125%? 

648
00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:46,639
So a nice little return there, 
those Ethos NFTS doing doing 

649
00:34:46,639 --> 00:34:48,679
quite well for those who got 
AirDrop those as well. 

650
00:34:48,760 --> 00:34:51,159
So Logan, I'll talk to you in 
any reactions. 

651
00:34:51,159 --> 00:34:55,040
You've been following some of 
these in a team Mints art 

652
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:58,440
season, perhaps coming back. 
Yeah, I haven't been following 

653
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:03,320
super closely, but this doesn't 
detract too much from what feels

654
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:07,960
like a small underlying theme 
with digital art kind of, I 

655
00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:10,520
don't know, regaining some 
focus. 

656
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:14,520
Like there was some X copy stuff
from what maybe a month or so 

657
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:17,480
ago. 
It just kind of keeps bubbling 

658
00:35:17,480 --> 00:35:19,280
up. 
They're here right now. 

659
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:22,080
And of course the ETH 
resurgence, I think it's helping

660
00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:23,480
this. 
I've seen some more tweets about

661
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:27,880
like ETH needs NFTSI can't 
remember like where those came 

662
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:31,960
from, but right, those types of 
tweets thematically are, are in 

663
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:35,200
my feed a little bit more and 
getting people, I think the just

664
00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,480
the ETH outperformance, getting 
people bowled up on the stuff 

665
00:35:38,480 --> 00:35:41,960
that you can do on ETH, which 
you remember the last cycle was,

666
00:35:42,040 --> 00:35:47,280
you know, largely, largely NFTS.
So it's good to see. 

667
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:53,440
I it's exciting to see more ETH 
NFT stuff and NFTS in general, 

668
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:57,760
because without that, yeah, I'm 
only speaking for myself here. 

669
00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:01,240
Of course, without that, the 
token, the token trading itself 

670
00:36:01,240 --> 00:36:05,040
can be quite monotonous and and 
not as fun, right. 

671
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:09,200
The NFTS, the non fungible 
nature of them does introduce 

672
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,160
just a little bit of creativity 
and a little bit of innovation 

673
00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:15,480
that, you know, pure token 
trading can't really replicate. 

674
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:21,400
So I am all, I'm all in for a, a
potential ETH NFT season or, or 

675
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,360
something like that. 
That would be, I think, a 

676
00:36:23,360 --> 00:36:26,360
welcome sight in the near 
future. 

677
00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:29,120
There you have it, these 
grifters back to a 28th floor. 

678
00:36:29,120 --> 00:36:30,600
Now you don't always see a 
whole. 

679
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:36,440
I think this is the one of the 
best X copy little, you know, 

680
00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:39,080
pieces that he has that these 
are nice. 

681
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:42,040
I'm not a major, major X copy, 
at least in terms of the output.

682
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:46,000
I'm not a major fan of the sort 
of darker thematic stuff and the

683
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,600
glitch art, but the grifters are
nice. 

684
00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:53,400
Those are at 20, the mass of 
Loosa hanging out at 6.9. 

685
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,360
I'm not still a little surprised
to see the spread between the 

686
00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:03,160
grifter masks spread at the 
point a little bit. 

687
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:07,440
I still think it might. 
But the mass sales also, they 

688
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:12,400
keep, they keep coming in. 
I see there's what 88 to 10 this

689
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:17,760
week? 
So there, there's some action on

690
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,840
that board. 
The, the salon streets have been

691
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,640
interesting. 
So like kind of taking a step 

692
00:37:23,640 --> 00:37:26,760
back from launch coin that was 
dominating everything really for

693
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,800
most of this week. 
There was some action last 

694
00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,320
night. 
So whatever this XBT token is 

695
00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:37,520
came out of nowhere, up 30,000%,
straight to 24,000,000. 

696
00:37:38,640 --> 00:37:43,160
So this was a huge runner. 
Not really exactly sure what 

697
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:46,080
what this product is, if it's 
just a pure meme, if there's 

698
00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:51,000
more to it, but but that one 
came out $34 million volume. 

699
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:53,800
This polycule token did did all 
right. 

700
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:59,000
It looks like trying to see what
other winners were out there. 

701
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:02,560
This Petunia token up nearly 
100% to 10 million. 

702
00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:06,840
Looks like it's selling off a 
bit here as well. 

703
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:09,280
Been a little bit of a weird 
week in the trenches. 

704
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:12,000
It felt like rotation from memes
to launch coin. 

705
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:15,800
All those launch coin ecosystem 
tokens for the most part have 

706
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:19,600
have largely sold off. 
I mean, dupe is down to 12 

707
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,840
million. 
Startup is the the number one 

708
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:29,240
below launch coin now at 18. 
And there's there's only four 

709
00:38:29,240 --> 00:38:32,800
above 5 million now. 
So I think that's some pretty 

710
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,040
striking downturns. 
I think some folks probably got 

711
00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,600
wrecked a bit in there. 
Unfortunately, anyone who is 

712
00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:43,240
late chasing these apps, which I
think is not, is also 

713
00:38:43,240 --> 00:38:45,560
contributing to the draw down on
launch coin right now. 

714
00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,440
I think there there needs to be 
some some good trade-offs in the

715
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:52,480
eco and with this slower pace, 
I'm not sure where those are 

716
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:55,400
going to come from. 
So I think that does open it up.

717
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,680
If you're more, if you don't 
like the launch coin meta, you 

718
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:02,440
like more the pure Solana mean 
coin game, I think you should be

719
00:39:02,440 --> 00:39:06,440
happy about that because it's 
opening up the board back for 

720
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:08,160
the the the meme plays this 
weekend. 

721
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,640
So we'll see what catches fire 
last week when I was fairly 

722
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,280
busy. 
I want to, I want to say maybe 

723
00:39:13,280 --> 00:39:15,800
we'll gain some steam here this 
weekend as well. 

724
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:18,600
Please. 
I don't know. 

725
00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:20,960
That was kind of the rundown of 
the big stories. 

726
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,080
Did I miss anything, Logan? 
Was there anything else on your 

727
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:27,280
radar? 
Not particularly. 

728
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:30,040
I don't think so. 
I think we we hit just about 

729
00:39:30,040 --> 00:39:31,640
everything. 
I'm going to look through my 

730
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:34,680
list here. 
Yeah, we'll give folks another 

731
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:36,240
chance to get into the to the 
year. 

732
00:39:36,240 --> 00:39:38,160
Oh, we didn't talk about, we 
didn't talk about the Frank the 

733
00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:39,400
Gods thing. 
I don't know if you wanted to 

734
00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:44,080
talk about that or not. 
Yeah, not, not a whole lot to 

735
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:49,280
say. 
We we saw some tweets going 

736
00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:50,840
viral. 
People thought that Frank was 

737
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:55,640
dumping his D Gods, looks like 
he got his trading laptop 

738
00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:57,520
compromised. 
Yeah. 

739
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:00,960
He had 17 to gods in there. 
I think he's got other D gods 

740
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:03,560
and other wallets. 
They also sold off like all the 

741
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:08,600
desk tokens he had. 
I think my biggest question is 

742
00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:11,760
how did Frank get compromised 
because I mean, he was someone 

743
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:13,320
who was trading millions of 
dollars. 

744
00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:19,160
What's up? 
Your computer compromise. 

745
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:25,600
The wallet was at least I. 
Know. 

746
00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:29,560
He confirmed, yeah, I, I chatted
with him yesterday for a story 

747
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:31,440
at the crypt. 
He confirmed those details to 

748
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:32,920
me. 
He said he was not well in the, 

749
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:35,360
in the message that it was 
shared widely and then reshared 

750
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:38,120
with me. 
Wasn't exactly sure what it 

751
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:41,840
transpired, but he told me he's 
redoing all his opsec and stuff 

752
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:45,080
to, you know, try to keep 
something like this from 

753
00:40:45,080 --> 00:40:47,120
happening in the future and said
it could have been much, much 

754
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:48,120
worse. 
So. 

755
00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:53,080
Man, it looks like he's not 
buying it. 

756
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,560
Yeah, unfortunately you can only
really take somebody's word for 

757
00:40:56,560 --> 00:40:59,800
something like that unless 
there's definitive proof with 

758
00:40:59,880 --> 00:41:02,920
something technologically, you 
know, I, I've got to just trust 

759
00:41:02,920 --> 00:41:04,600
what Frank tells me in that 
instance, so. 

760
00:41:05,240 --> 00:41:07,320
That's a good article. 
I saw it I think. 

761
00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:09,880
It's it. 
It's unfortunate that, but it's.

762
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:11,760
Probably real, you know. 
What happens? 

763
00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,560
Well, I mean, it's unfortunate, 
Frank aside, anybody in that 

764
00:41:15,560 --> 00:41:19,000
situation, like if that really 
does happen to you, nobody's 

765
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:21,840
going to believe you. 
You know, that's, that's a 

766
00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:23,920
shitty situation to be in 
regardless. 

767
00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,120
And of course, like nobody wants
to lose. 

768
00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:28,760
It was around like $19,000 worth
of assets, I think. 

769
00:41:28,760 --> 00:41:31,480
Like nobody wants, nobody wants 
to lose that. 

770
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:35,120
So that sucks as well. 
But just the, the emotional 

771
00:41:35,240 --> 00:41:36,520
toll. 
Yeah. 

772
00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,440
Which he, he seemed to be a good
sport about. 

773
00:41:38,440 --> 00:41:40,560
Like he, you know, he was kind 
of like the headlines are funny,

774
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:42,320
but can't remember his exact 
quote. 

775
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:44,600
But you know, the headlines are 
funny, but like, obviously I 

776
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:46,800
wouldn't, you know, be looking 
to do this. 

777
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:50,400
So he he maintained, I know he 
stepped away from his role as 

778
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,320
CEO, but maintained to me and in
other statements as well that 

779
00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:57,280
you know, he is fully expecting 
that the pasta and chill who are

780
00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,880
taking over long time community 
members and team members there 

781
00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:05,680
will cook. 
Good, good quote. 

782
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:10,400
I think it. 
I think he got it hacked. 

783
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:14,760
I don't think Frank is desperate
to sell 17D gods personally in 

784
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:17,920
like a situation. 
I am more just curious though, 

785
00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:20,480
like at one point in time, like 
that was his main trade. 

786
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:22,240
Like he was trading millions of 
dollars. 

787
00:42:22,240 --> 00:42:25,360
So like, it's like that could 
have been very, very bad. 

788
00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,880
Yeah. 
He just, like, let his guard 

789
00:42:27,880 --> 00:42:29,080
down. 
Like how did? 

790
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:33,280
Yeah, I mean, when you move 
fast, you know, you can, it's 

791
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:36,480
easy to get like a lot of people
get get, get like that. 

792
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:38,560
You know, when you move really 
fast, you have to take be 

793
00:42:38,560 --> 00:42:41,320
careful. 
Scams are good right now. 

794
00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:44,440
You know, I guess one we didn't 
talk about this thing, one 

795
00:42:44,440 --> 00:42:48,960
positive headline on the 
scamming front, those that group

796
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:54,880
that stole like 240 million from
the whale and I think across 

797
00:42:54,880 --> 00:42:56,800
several exploits they got 
caught. 

798
00:42:57,800 --> 00:43:02,360
Yeah, must of 12 of them. 
So where they are going to be 

799
00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:08,600
locked up for a long time, they 
they use the funds on supercars,

800
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:13,360
private jets, clubs, designer 
bags, $240 million. 

801
00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:17,960
Oh my God. 
So I think good timing on this. 

802
00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:21,880
They're coming on the back of 
the Coinbase X data leak to know

803
00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:24,160
that at least some of these 
people are being put to justice.

804
00:43:24,160 --> 00:43:27,480
So shout out to Zach, XPT, and 
everyone else. 

805
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:30,680
That's crazy. 
Who played a part in that? 

806
00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:33,480
Because they're all between 18 
and 21. 

807
00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:38,640
Fuck Young. 
Guys, young guys, are the ones 

808
00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:40,600
doing this. 
There were 12. 

809
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:48,320
Operating between October 23 
through March 25, they they 

810
00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:50,760
impersonated support agents to 
trick victims. 

811
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:52,720
So they're all basically 
running, fishing. 

812
00:43:53,920 --> 00:44:00,080
Also physical break insurance 
bought at least 28 exotic cars. 

813
00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:05,280
Half $1,000,000 Nightclub tab. 
No one's wondering where these 

814
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,360
kids got $3.8 million for luxury
cars. 

815
00:44:09,240 --> 00:44:12,480
How much? 
Some of the cars are up to 3.8 

816
00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,160
million each. 
Like this 20 year old kid walks 

817
00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:17,320
in to buy your $4 million 
supercar. 

818
00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:19,200
You don't ask any questions 
where you got the money. 

819
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:23,120
That's interesting. 
But how did they cash out? 

820
00:44:23,640 --> 00:44:25,920
Members of the group rented 
luxury homes in the Hamptons. 

821
00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:28,880
Look, Mendo, they're not from 
Dubai, bro. 

822
00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:31,920
This looks like it was all in 
the US, yeah. 

823
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:36,800
Or maybe not all, but at least a
good chunk of this is in the US.

824
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:39,320
Damn. 
So we'll see what additional 

825
00:44:39,320 --> 00:44:40,200
details come out.
