And with us today in the virtual studio is number 83, Aladdin. 18 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:27,480 Yeah. 19 00:01:28,100 --> 00:01:30,160 Back. The man's back. 20 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,840 He's back. From season one to season three, this man is here. 21 00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:43,320 He took 47,823 Satoshis. He actually gave them to my boy Lion in exchange for getting a fatter 22 00:01:43,320 --> 00:01:48,540 glob of hummus on his woven wheat. You guys remember that? Because my boy was just dipping. 23 00:01:48,540 --> 00:01:58,080 Now, I was going to ask you how you feel about the fact that those Satoshis are now worth $32.73. 24 00:01:58,740 --> 00:02:02,200 But I guess technically, allegedly, they're lying Satoshis. 25 00:02:02,340 --> 00:02:05,580 But, you know, you've been around for a little while, Aladdin. 26 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:15,340 What advice can you give to our audience about what to do during this time and how to feel during this time? 27 00:02:15,340 --> 00:02:22,040 It's a simple one to me, but I've noticed that it comes off a lot more difficult to other people. 28 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,000 Let's put it in the framework of something outside of Bitcoin. 29 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:29,380 So there's a car that you've always wanted. 30 00:02:29,380 --> 00:02:42,220 The car is $45,000, and that same exact car due to whatever circumstance, Chevy, Ford, whatever your desire, 31 00:02:42,220 --> 00:02:49,760 it just dropped with a giant sale and now that $45,000 car is 32 grand out the door. 32 00:02:50,460 --> 00:02:56,300 So do you look at that and say, eh, I'm not really interested in that car anymore. If it dropped in 33 00:02:56,300 --> 00:03:01,540 value, even though it's brand new, I just don't want it. I'll wait until it goes back up maybe 34 00:03:01,540 --> 00:03:08,660 or I just won't buy the car because it doesn't look as good on sale. To me, that's crazy. That's 35 00:03:08,660 --> 00:03:12,580 kind of like the real estate market. If you're trying to buy a house, then you want the real 36 00:03:12,580 --> 00:03:18,580 estate market to go down. You want to get the best bang for your buck. So another way that I like to 37 00:03:18,580 --> 00:03:25,600 frame it up is unless you have all the Bitcoin that you've ever wanted to have and your wallet 38 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:33,260 is as full as you're willing to ever take it, discounts are good. So I hope that people can 39 00:03:33,260 --> 00:03:38,300 start kind of building around that because I've seen it many times. My mom was one of them. I get 40 00:03:38,300 --> 00:03:43,740 her to DCA about $50 every single month. And then I hadn't seen her for about a month and a half and 41 00:03:43,740 --> 00:03:47,640 came into her work and I'm like, mom, you're still DCA. And she's like, well, no, I stopped. 42 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:54,020 Why? She's like, well, the value is dropping really hard right now. Well, yeah. So your $50 43 00:03:54,020 --> 00:03:58,520 is buying you a heck of a lot more Bitcoin. Are you like, you full, you got as much Bitcoin as 44 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:03,460 you want. Oh no, no. I want a lot more Bitcoin. Well then yeah, you should be continuing that $50 45 00:04:03,460 --> 00:04:10,200 a month, if not increasing it to like 55 or 60. So hopefully we can train people around this. But 46 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:15,940 I think that comes down to the public school systems really doing a disservice to most people. 47 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:22,560 Oh, wow. A lot there. That was a lot. Yeah. I think the first thing is like, dang, mom, 48 00:04:23,460 --> 00:04:28,800 don't, don't, don't pause your DCA, mom. Keep your DCA going. 49 00:04:29,140 --> 00:04:32,780 Definitely. Right. I added a DCA in the dip. 50 00:04:32,780 --> 00:04:33,540 What? 51 00:04:34,380 --> 00:04:35,460 So you have... 52 00:04:35,460 --> 00:04:36,580 I added another one. 53 00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:40,440 You've got your Friday at 3 a.m. weekly. 54 00:04:40,740 --> 00:04:41,780 That's the one that I added. 55 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:42,560 Oh, okay. 56 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:43,560 I was doing... 57 00:04:44,220 --> 00:04:47,780 The first one was $50 every two weeks. 58 00:04:47,940 --> 00:04:49,320 $50 every two weeks. 59 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,040 Yeah, and then I added $60 every week. 60 00:04:52,500 --> 00:04:52,660 What? 61 00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:53,560 Yeah! 62 00:04:54,300 --> 00:04:56,340 I mean, the thing that I love 63 00:04:56,340 --> 00:04:58,380 because I am playing around with Strike 64 00:04:58,380 --> 00:05:00,800 is that I can have multiple. 65 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:02,360 Okay. 66 00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:07,000 Okay.

But 132 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:54,060 my conviction on Bitcoin is it's freedom money. And if it's not successful, well, we have a lot 133 00:08:54,060 --> 00:08:59,360 bigger things to worry about. So that's where I just stay the course, no matter what happens. 134 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:05,540 And obviously, we'll always have the monkey brain fighting us to a certain degree. But I think I do 135 00:09:05,540 --> 00:09:11,760 pretty well at staying the course just on the fact that in my mind, I'm a very freedom focused 136 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:18,380 person. And if Bitcoin fails and it goes to zero, my freedom is probably going to zero as well. And 137 00:09:18,380 --> 00:09:22,900 if that's the case, again, I've got a lot bigger things to worry about. So I'm just going to 138 00:09:22,900 --> 00:09:29,120 continue to stay the course. So Anna Bevin, freedom going to zero, how does that make you feel 139 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:30,420 as a brand new Bitcoiner? 140 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:35,860 Well, as like a person who believes in free markets 141 00:09:35,860 --> 00:09:36,940 and free enterprise, 142 00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:38,960 that also does not make me feel good. 143 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:39,860 Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. 144 00:09:40,340 --> 00:09:42,920 As a conservatarian brand new Bitcoiner, 145 00:09:43,100 --> 00:09:44,040 freedom goes to zero. 146 00:09:44,620 --> 00:09:45,460 Talk to me. 147 00:09:46,380 --> 00:09:51,900 I feel concerned, afraid, and angry. 148 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:53,240 Mm-hmm, mm-hmm. 149 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:55,100 Probably in that order. 150 00:09:55,540 --> 00:09:58,700 Nobody wants to live in a world where like, 151 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:05,140 every move you make is tracked and you have like a social media score over the top of your head 152 00:10:05,140 --> 00:10:10,020 like that one black mirror episode with opie's daughter in it you know what i mean it's like we 153 00:10:10,020 --> 00:10:13,940 don't we we don't want that we don't want that exactly the episode i was going to reference yeah 154 00:10:13,940 --> 00:10:20,280 have you not seen that episode no oh my god anna bevan that is like that episode makes you be like 155 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:27,260 oh yeah like your social media is like your your your your social score your social standing is 156 00:10:27,260 --> 00:10:28,120 like visible to everyone. 157 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:29,660 Well, there used to be a clout score. 158 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:30,740 Is that still a thing? 159 00:10:30,900 --> 00:10:31,640 I don't know. 160 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:32,260 But like basically like that. 161 00:10:32,260 --> 00:10:33,740 Because there used to be a clout score 162 00:10:33,740 --> 00:10:35,160 where everyone would have a clout. 163 00:10:35,220 --> 00:10:35,720 This was like, 164 00:10:36,060 --> 00:10:36,700 this was like, 165 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:37,240 I don't know, 166 00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:43,520 2012 to 15 era 167 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:46,880 where like social media managers 168 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:47,840 were like jobs. 169 00:10:48,700 --> 00:10:49,100 Like you would, 170 00:10:49,220 --> 00:10:50,300 and it was always like, 171 00:10:50,380 --> 00:10:51,400 oh, you're a young person. 172 00:10:52,260 --> 00:10:53,940 You go do the social media. 173 00:10:53,940 --> 00:10:59,080 And yeah, I remember there being a clout score 174 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,020 I was checking my clout score constantly 175 00:11:02,020 --> 00:11:02,500 Dang 176 00:11:02,500 --> 00:11:05,380 I had a pretty good clout score 177 00:11:05,380 --> 00:11:09,400 So how do we boost our conviction score, right? 178 00:11:09,500 --> 00:11:13,040 Because Anna Bevan is class of 2025 179 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,400 I'm class of 2024 180 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,120 For everybody that watched your episode 181 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,120 They know that you came in earlier than that 182 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,220 And that your dad taught you like some basic stuff 183 00:11:23,220 --> 00:11:28,400 back on the farm that kind of parlayed into Bitcoin where you had some, you had some like 184 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:33,540 pre-made conviction in place for like the principles, you know what I mean? Anyways, 185 00:11:33,820 --> 00:11:38,560 what can we do to increase our conviction even in that moment where we're like, 186 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,280 you know, am I catching a falling knife? 187 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:50,260 I mean, that's a hard one because I would say each individual's conviction is going to be 188 00:11:50,260 --> 00:12:00,660 specific. So it comes down to what is most important to you, your time, your freedom. 189 00:12:01,180 --> 00:12:05,180 There's so many different angles that go at it. I really, when I talk to people about Bitcoin that 190 00:12:05,180 --> 00:12:10,440 are not into Bitcoin yet, I really like to get to know them as much as possible so that I can 191 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:17,340 try and help them find what conviction is going to work best for them. Because again, everyone's 192 00:12:17,340 --> 00:12:23,940 different. I can only tee it up to myself around the freedom aspect. And then that can kind of go 193 00:12:23,940 --> 00:12:30,200 in many directions for many people. I mean, you just said it, it goes to zero. We have CBDC. 194 00:12:30,940 --> 00:12:39,800 If we have CBDC, I mean, your currency's dead at that point. Everything's digital. And it's 195 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:45,440 going to be really, really difficult for everybody at that point, because you can't send your grandma 196 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:49,840 money without having to go through checks and balances with the government or the banks 197 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:51,720 or the parties that be. 198 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:56,940 That to me, it's very dystopian. 199 00:12:57,560 --> 00:13:00,220 So again, my conviction is just it's Bitcoin. 200 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:03,420 And this is the best chance we have today. 201 00:13:03,420 --> 00:13:10,320 Well, something may become tomorrow or next year, not necessarily a better Bitcoin, but 202 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:17,520 something else that gives us another opportunity towards locking in our freedom, then I would 203 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:18,860 support that the same way. 204 00:13:19,340 --> 00:13:24,200 But right now, as far as I can tell in my research, Bitcoin is the best opportunity we 205 00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:28,600 have right now as humans to lock in our freedom. 206 00:13:29,340 --> 00:13:34,020 So the idea is Bitcoin works because math works. 207 00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:34,380 Yeah. 208 00:13:34,620 --> 00:13:39,940 Slash Bitcoin is a protocol and nobody is out here saying these other protocols are scams. 209 00:13:39,940 --> 00:13:43,020 They're just, they're like, it's technology. 210 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:44,600 Yeah, yeah. 211 00:13:45,180 --> 00:13:55,860 My really good friend in high school used to say whenever there was like a lull in the conversation, she was like, so I hear this internet thing is here to stay. 212 00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:04,460 And I sort of feel like that's where, like, it feels dumb for her to say that because you're like, yeah, our whole lives are run on the internet. 213 00:14:04,460 --> 00:14:06,700 but I feel like 214 00:14:06,700 --> 00:14:08,440 Bitcoin's going to be 215 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,620 like people are going to start saying that about Bitcoin 216 00:14:10,620 --> 00:14:12,420 I don't know 217 00:14:12,420 --> 00:14:14,660 now, five years from now, ten years from now 218 00:14:14,660 --> 00:14:16,300 so I hear this Bitcoin thing's here to stay 219 00:14:16,300 --> 00:14:18,240 and it would just 220 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:19,940 everyone would die laughing 221 00:14:19,940 --> 00:14:22,320 and sometimes I do crack myself up 222 00:14:22,320 --> 00:14:24,160 by myself and I'll say 223 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,480 so this internet thing's here to stay 224 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:28,880 and no one gets it 225 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:41,372 but I think it funny you say that out loud to yourself while you alone If I talking and no one hears me I have a tendency to say as I wondered quietly to myself like I narrating my life 226 00:14:41,532 --> 00:14:45,512 or as I noted quietly to myself, or I'll say, 227 00:14:46,432 --> 00:14:48,272 so I can hear this internet thing's here to stay. 228 00:14:48,512 --> 00:14:51,092 My dad would always say, never mind, I'll tell you later. 229 00:14:52,792 --> 00:14:55,732 Now, what do you think about that, Aladdin? 230 00:14:57,052 --> 00:14:59,992 You know, I honestly have a rebuttal for that. 231 00:15:00,292 --> 00:15:07,292 yeah I so the internet doesn't have competition the internet is the internet 232 00:15:07,292 --> 00:15:14,752 bluetooth doesn't have competition bluetooth is bluetooth bitcoin doesn't have competition 233 00:15:14,752 --> 00:15:23,072 let's make that clear because everything else couldn't hold anything to bitcoin but there are 234 00:15:23,072 --> 00:15:30,712 millions of other blockchain crap that's out there. Let's just tee it up for what it is. 235 00:15:31,432 --> 00:15:37,432 And for the general public to look at it, they're not looking at it like this is Bitcoin and Bitcoin 236 00:15:37,432 --> 00:15:46,812 is the only option. There's all these other blockchains, Ethereum, XRP. I don't want to 237 00:15:46,812 --> 00:15:52,392 talk too much crap we'll keep it as polite as possible that protocols that 238 00:15:52,392 --> 00:15:57,132 I don't believe in that I think are dangerous in a lot of ways but there a 239 00:15:57,132 --> 00:16:00,372 lot of them will be around that's a whole nother topic whether we like it or 240 00:16:00,372 --> 00:16:06,952 not but at the end of the day these blockchains have massive massive amounts 241 00:16:06,952 --> 00:16:13,772 of money fiat their their own printed money that they make to go out there and 242 00:16:13,772 --> 00:16:19,192 market the crap out of what they're building. So you do have a lot of people outside of Bitcoin 243 00:16:19,192 --> 00:16:24,532 going, yeah, but there's this and yeah, but there's that. So that is the bummer that we have right now 244 00:16:24,532 --> 00:16:32,212 with Bitcoin. One, we are all the marketing arm for Bitcoin. There is no Bitcoin printing its own 245 00:16:32,212 --> 00:16:38,652 money for the founders of Bitcoin to go out there and market it to everybody on Super Bowl Sunday. 246 00:16:38,652 --> 00:16:44,112 it comes down to the people. And this is what I love about Bitcoin. It's one of my favorite things 247 00:16:44,112 --> 00:16:49,832 about Bitcoin, but it's also one of the things that makes it incredibly difficult for what we're 248 00:16:49,832 --> 00:16:54,952 doing because it does come down to the passion and conviction of Bitcoiners to get the word out 249 00:16:54,952 --> 00:17:00,452 about Bitcoin, which is beautiful. But we are competing against people that can print their 250 00:17:00,452 --> 00:17:06,232 own money like XRP and Ethereum and go out there and market like crazy people. So I do think that's 251 00:17:06,232 --> 00:17:12,192 the dilemma we're in right now. If you compare it to the internet or Bluetooth or something like 252 00:17:12,192 --> 00:17:17,972 that, that is the only protocol. There are unfortunately a bunch of other protocols out 253 00:17:17,972 --> 00:17:25,512 there that people outside of Bitcoin that don't know that are uneducated, that's what they compare 254 00:17:25,512 --> 00:17:29,572 it to. I mean, the majority of people I talk to outside of Bitcoin, they go, oh yeah, that 255 00:17:29,572 --> 00:17:35,332 cryptocurrency thing like Ethereum, like they're literally putting it in the same basket. 256 00:17:36,172 --> 00:17:41,732 So we've got a lot more education to put out and a lot bigger fight than just being an internet 257 00:17:41,732 --> 00:17:49,452 protocol, unfortunately. Yeah. I mean, you talk about how we are the marketing arm for Bitcoin 258 00:17:49,452 --> 00:17:56,452 and you're so right. Like that's, it's the people who have Bitcoin. It's the people who 259 00:17:56,452 --> 00:18:05,852 are brand new. It's the long timers. And so where do you feel like Bitcoin culture is right now? 260 00:18:05,852 --> 00:18:09,432 Because I feel like that might be a button that we should press with you. 261 00:18:10,172 --> 00:18:16,872 Yeah. Unfortunately, I think we're in one of the biggest culture crises that I've ever seen. 262 00:18:17,072 --> 00:18:23,832 I've been in Bitcoin since 2016 was when I really started learning. I found Tone Vase, 263 00:18:23,832 --> 00:18:31,072 Adam Meister, Samson Mao, some really good Bitcoiners. I was blessed to stay on the focused 264 00:18:31,072 --> 00:18:37,052 Bitcoin rabbit hole very early on. And I learned about everything. When the first NFTs were popping 265 00:18:37,052 --> 00:18:42,152 up, I was paying attention. I wasn't even buying around that time. I didn't even start DCAing until 266 00:18:42,152 --> 00:18:50,452 2017. And it was little, little bits at a time. And the block size wars, we had a culture crisis. 267 00:18:50,452 --> 00:18:57,852 I studied the Silk Road quite a bit, and that was a major culture crisis. 268 00:18:58,452 --> 00:19:01,252 I think today is the anniversary of Mt. Gox. 269 00:19:02,272 --> 00:19:04,012 Massive culture crisis right there. 270 00:19:04,112 --> 00:19:05,292 It's all these PR crises. 271 00:19:05,932 --> 00:19:15,872 And again, there's no marketing arm, excuse me, getting paid to go out there and be the PR team or be the marketing team for Bitcoin. 272 00:19:16,172 --> 00:19:17,052 It's all the people. 273 00:19:17,052 --> 00:19:23,592 So it is up to the culture, the community to to make it work or not make it work. 274 00:19:23,592 --> 00:19:38,592 And today with knots versus core with the Epstein files, I mean, there's so many different things that two people outside of Bitcoin, they're looking in going, OK, there's Bitcoiners claiming that they got Trump elected. 275 00:19:39,432 --> 00:19:44,032 It's not good, regardless of what side you're on. 276 00:19:44,092 --> 00:19:45,152 To me, it doesn't matter. 277 00:19:45,152 --> 00:19:48,512 It's that Bitcoin is not political. 278 00:19:48,772 --> 00:19:51,992 It shouldn't ever be pulled into a left or a right. 279 00:19:52,392 --> 00:19:58,672 Bitcoin is inclusive for every person on earth, regardless of race, creed, or sex. 280 00:19:59,232 --> 00:20:02,932 So that's a very dangerous framework that we have right now. 281 00:20:03,812 --> 00:20:08,372 Knots versus core, the battling, civil war inside of Bitcoin. 282 00:20:08,532 --> 00:20:13,192 It's literally our own left versus right paradigm we're battling in right now in Bitcoin. 283 00:20:13,192 --> 00:20:19,432 the toxicity against anything that isn't Bitcoin. I get it entirely, but I'm a father 284 00:20:19,432 --> 00:20:24,552 and I've got teenagers and you can only be so toxic to someone you're trying to educate or 285 00:20:24,552 --> 00:20:29,132 right over their head. And they go to the opposite of what you're asking them to do or what you're 286 00:20:29,132 --> 00:20:35,492 trying to educate them on. Again, Epstein files says nothing to do with Bitcoin itself, but because 287 00:20:35,492 --> 00:20:43,232 the people that were early adopters to Bitcoin are noted in these files. I mean, it's just bad 288 00:20:43,232 --> 00:20:49,652 right now. And at the end of the day, we have to come together as a community, as a culture, 289 00:20:50,252 --> 00:20:56,572 wake up, quit acting like children. And I will say it, I'm based trading cards. So I have to be 290 00:20:56,572 --> 00:21:03,032 very based in my opinions. We do need to come together as a community and stop fighting and 291 00:21:03,032 --> 00:21:10,172 really put the world first, put Bitcoin first, put inclusion for everyone first. 292 00:21:11,432 --> 00:21:18,672 And I just keep saying we are all the marketing arm for Bitcoin. And the PR comes down to every 293 00:21:18,672 --> 00:21:25,632 one of us that is out there talking about Bitcoin. And you have to represent it with respect and 294 00:21:25,632 --> 00:21:31,452 dignity. And if you don't, then you're making Bitcoin look bad, which is highly unfortunate. 295 00:21:31,452 --> 00:21:55,852 And it is the game theory, I think, of what Bitcoin is and why the success of Bitcoin is going to be the most powerful culture movement for all of humanity when it happens, because it's not a success built around a multi-billion dollar PR team that is coming in and making sure everything's perfect. 296 00:21:55,852 --> 00:22:01,712 this is humanity right now it's the test of humanity in a way that has never been done before 297 00:22:01,712 --> 00:22:09,352 it's really beautiful in a lot of ways but it's it's it's a battle unlike any other battle in 298 00:22:09,352 --> 00:22:15,952 order for us to succeed but i have faith and as a father again i have to have faith in humanity so 299 00:22:15,952 --> 00:22:20,892 that i have faith that my kids are going to grow up in a beautiful world otherwise um it's really 300 00:22:20,892 --> 00:22:27,732 hard to get up each day. So I do put my faith in people the best I can. And we all need to just 301 00:22:27,732 --> 00:22:36,012 work our butts off and find values in each other. And it's the last thing I'll say on it with my 302 00:22:36,012 --> 00:22:45,432 rant, it's contagious. Happiness, goodness, kindness is contagious. And you may not feel 303 00:22:45,432 --> 00:22:51,372 like it today, you may be down in the dumps, but go out there and do something good. Open a door for 304 00:22:51,372 --> 00:22:55,372 somebody, put a smile on your face, whether you want to or not. And at the end of the day, 305 00:22:55,472 --> 00:22:59,232 you're going to feel really, really good. And you're going to pass that on to more and more 306 00:22:59,232 --> 00:23:06,852 people. And that's how we're going to start moving forward. All right. So let's take a second here. 307 00:23:06,852 --> 00:23:08,572 We heard 308 00:23:08,572 --> 00:23:11,512 Bitcoin Civil War 309 00:23:11,512 --> 00:23:13,792 Currently going on 310 00:23:13,792 --> 00:23:14,132 Yeah 311 00:23:14,132 --> 00:23:15,052 Sorry, big rant 312 00:23:15,052 --> 00:23:16,552 No, no, no 313 00:23:16,552 --> 00:23:17,912 It's great 314 00:23:17,912 --> 00:23:18,732 It's good, it's good 315 00:23:18,732 --> 00:23:20,152 So the, you know 316 00:23:20,152 --> 00:23:22,032 Bitcoin Civil War today 317 00:23:22,032 --> 00:23:22,632 Yeah 318 00:23:22,632 --> 00:23:24,832 Not the block size wars 319 00:23:24,832 --> 00:23:25,792 That we covered with 320 00:23:25,792 --> 00:23:27,832 Jeremy the Bitcoin Cash guy 321 00:23:27,832 --> 00:23:30,632 Which Lion was also on that episode 322 00:23:30,632 --> 00:23:31,372 By the way 323 00:23:31,372 --> 00:23:32,412 Aladdin 324 00:23:32,412 --> 00:23:34,772 And the dude offered him 325 00:23:34,772 --> 00:23:36,552 $100 worth of Bitcoin Cash 326 00:23:36,552 --> 00:23:44,472 during the anyways we heard we heard new civil war we heard knots versus core we heard epstein 327 00:23:44,472 --> 00:23:53,532 files we heard you know eventual success of bitcoin being a culture moment there like as a as 328 00:23:53,532 --> 00:24:01,592 the brandest new bitcoiner among us as the most brand new yeah what questions do you have for 329 00:24:01,592 --> 00:24:04,032 Aladdin on any of those items? 330 00:24:04,992 --> 00:24:07,312 I have no idea what Knott's versus Core is. 331 00:24:07,492 --> 00:24:08,572 Don't know what that is. 332 00:24:11,252 --> 00:24:15,952 I'm still surprised that, and I feel like, I don't know if this is insensitive to say 333 00:24:15,952 --> 00:24:17,172 or I'm just tired of hearing about it. 334 00:24:18,172 --> 00:24:18,572 I don't know. 335 00:24:18,692 --> 00:24:24,512 How much is the Epstein files controversy really impacting Bitcoin? 336 00:24:24,892 --> 00:24:30,652 Like, how much does that matter to me or to like new Bitcoiners who are coming into the 337 00:24:30,652 --> 00:24:31,132 space? 338 00:24:31,132 --> 00:24:35,612 Like, I don't, are they paying attention that much to it? 339 00:24:35,652 --> 00:24:38,512 Or does that fall within that, like, a civil war? 340 00:24:40,632 --> 00:24:41,752 I don't know. 341 00:24:42,092 --> 00:24:50,332 Do bad actors have an impact on Bitcoin itself working or being valuable? 342 00:24:50,732 --> 00:24:53,812 Right, which I think would, I think it's probably my question. 343 00:24:53,992 --> 00:24:56,712 Because if we believe math, if we go back to your thing, 344 00:24:56,712 --> 00:24:58,012 because like we, 345 00:24:58,212 --> 00:25:01,232 we actually don't really talk a lot about anybody else 346 00:25:01,232 --> 00:25:03,712 other than Satoshi on the show. 347 00:25:03,852 --> 00:25:07,232 We talk about Bitcoin and like how the math, 348 00:25:07,332 --> 00:25:10,212 maths and it's a protocol. 349 00:25:10,212 --> 00:25:11,092 And if it works, 350 00:25:11,152 --> 00:25:11,732 it works. 351 00:25:11,732 --> 00:25:17,412 And there are 26,000 other computers that are verifying 352 00:25:17,412 --> 00:25:18,332 everything that's happening. 353 00:25:18,692 --> 00:25:19,912 Like those are, 354 00:25:20,152 --> 00:25:21,312 that's divorced from, 355 00:25:21,652 --> 00:25:23,552 from the people in this space. 356 00:25:23,552 --> 00:25:23,832 Like, 357 00:25:24,192 --> 00:25:24,392 I mean, 358 00:25:24,392 --> 00:25:25,832 you'll mention Jack Maulers. 359 00:25:26,152 --> 00:25:26,532 Yep. 360 00:25:26,712 --> 00:25:33,752 I mean, we've had Jeff Booth, James Lavish, Jameson Lopp. 361 00:25:34,112 --> 00:25:39,392 But like outside of that, I probably couldn't really tell you any of the other major Bitcoin people. 362 00:25:40,472 --> 00:25:42,312 For good or bad. 363 00:25:43,432 --> 00:25:52,412 So what's your take on that, Alada, in terms of like, you know, do the Epstein files have an impact on Bitcoin itself? 364 00:25:53,032 --> 00:25:55,392 So no, not whatsoever. 365 00:25:55,392 --> 00:25:56,392 Bitcoin is going to do. 366 00:25:56,512 --> 00:25:57,392 Bitcoin is a honey badger. 367 00:25:58,272 --> 00:25:59,192 And that's what I love about Bitcoin. 368 00:25:59,912 --> 00:26:00,392 Yes. 369 00:26:00,572 --> 00:26:04,412 So at the end of the day, no, it will not affect Bitcoin itself whatsoever. 370 00:26:05,072 --> 00:26:08,812 Sadly, what it will affect is new people getting into Bitcoin. 371 00:26:09,392 --> 00:26:11,032 The algorithm loves drama. 372 00:26:11,932 --> 00:26:12,852 Yes, that's true. 373 00:26:12,872 --> 00:26:14,592 One of the things I hate about social media. 374 00:26:15,032 --> 00:26:24,632 And it's been proven with Meta that they literally will focus on drama, focus on fighting, and they will push that up in the algorithm. 375 00:26:24,632 --> 00:26:30,972 So with anything bad they can say about Bitcoin, it'll obviously be pushed up in the algorithm. 376 00:26:31,152 --> 00:26:39,192 And if you can throw out any battling between Bitcoiners that have conviction that say this has nothing to do with Bitcoin, which they're 100 percent right. 377 00:26:39,392 --> 00:26:41,872 But then you have the people that just love to stir up drama. 378 00:26:42,592 --> 00:26:44,452 This will work really well in the algorithm. 379 00:26:44,452 --> 00:26:51,132 It's going to work a lot better than goodness and kindness because anger and animosity always moves up in the algorithm. 380 00:26:51,132 --> 00:26:58,512 So new people that don't know anything about Bitcoin, what they're going to see on the social media more than anything is the drama. 381 00:26:59,432 --> 00:27:02,852 And this is a bad drama for people that know nothing about Bitcoin. 382 00:27:03,812 --> 00:27:16,192 Just in the last year since the election, I've had more people outside of Bitcoin literally ask me if Trump is Satoshi, is Bitcoin, was it made by Trump? 383 00:27:16,272 --> 00:27:17,612 Was it made by the Republicans? 384 00:27:17,612 --> 00:27:25,312 these are really bad toxic things for Bitcoin culture right now and for people that want to 385 00:27:25,312 --> 00:27:30,332 come into Bitcoin because it seems very exclusive to a lot of people when you frame it that way. 386 00:27:31,132 --> 00:27:36,172 So even though all the Epstein stuff is a load of crap in a lot of ways, 387 00:27:36,612 --> 00:27:39,872 because at the end of the day, it's like, oh, so someone that bought Bitcoin or someone that 388 00:27:39,872 --> 00:27:46,912 might have worked on the Bitcoin protocol at some point had a conversation or an email with Epstein. 389 00:27:46,912 --> 00:27:54,552 What does that have to do with Bitcoin itself? Nothing. But to the everyday person, it has a lot to do with it because they're not going to dive deep. 390 00:27:54,692 --> 00:27:57,852 They're just going to see what's on that outer edge and they're going to write it off. 391 00:27:58,412 --> 00:28:12,732 And myself being someone that wants more than anything, more than number go up, I want Bitcoin freedom money to be accessible and utilized by as many everyday people as possible. 392 00:28:12,732 --> 00:28:29,872 So to me, it's a big problem because we have a lot of everyday people that would potentially consider jumping in and learning more about Bitcoin that might just be pushed away immediately because they saw top of the algorithm Bitcoin having something to do with Epstein. 393 00:28:30,072 --> 00:28:33,532 And then they're like, write it off. I want nothing to do with that whatsoever. 394 00:28:34,212 --> 00:28:37,912 So it's a big deterrent right now. It's very, very unfortunate. 395 00:28:37,912 --> 00:28:46,152 so what about the content as well you you know before we started taping you talked about some 396 00:28:46,152 --> 00:28:55,212 type of content proliferation or content inflation content inflation man and anna bevan she coined it 397 00:28:55,212 --> 00:29:02,652 here on the show you know some people think an inflationary environment is superior some people 398 00:29:02,652 --> 00:29:15,944 think a deflationary environment is superior anna bevan asked another guy the other day why can we just have to I just want flation Just flation you know Why can we just have flation It the Goldilocks porridge 399 00:29:16,124 --> 00:29:17,564 Yeah, flation. 400 00:29:18,364 --> 00:29:23,764 But we're having content in flation right now. Talk to me about that, because does that tie into 401 00:29:23,764 --> 00:29:32,204 your, your, because I've seen it too, like all we do here all day is just have positive vibrations, 402 00:29:32,204 --> 00:29:39,884 we chat about sats we try to stay away from all caps bitcoin content yeah we're not in here 403 00:29:39,884 --> 00:29:47,824 shouting about jamie diamond um we try to be as welcoming as humanly possible and i think the 404 00:29:47,824 --> 00:29:54,804 the algorithms of the internet are like who wants to see the bob ross of bitcoin paint a happy little 405 00:29:54,804 --> 00:30:00,244 tree over here on by the it's like i'm like that's what we actually need though like we actually like 406 00:30:00,244 --> 00:30:08,624 You almost have to try as hard as you possibly can to curate a positive stream of information for yourself out of the internet. 407 00:30:08,844 --> 00:30:16,444 Because if you just let the internet do what it's going to do, you're only going to get hit with like nasty, nasty, nasty, nasty business. 408 00:30:16,744 --> 00:30:20,644 So does that all tie in there to that content inflation piece? 409 00:30:21,804 --> 00:30:24,384 Yeah, I mean, I think it goes much larger than that. 410 00:30:24,564 --> 00:30:26,864 We have it in the Bitcoin space for sure. 411 00:30:26,864 --> 00:30:35,184 I've been talking to a lot of the Bitcoin conference organizers and a lot of them are 412 00:30:35,184 --> 00:30:41,444 picking up what I think the change that needs to happen. So we have content inflation in Bitcoin 413 00:30:41,444 --> 00:30:48,744 all over the place from the social media channels to podcasts galore all day long. And it's interview 414 00:30:48,744 --> 00:30:54,904 after interview. How many times can you listen to the same person tee up what their personal 415 00:30:54,904 --> 00:31:03,264 opinion is on Bitcoin or the charts or where we're moving right now in price day after day after day, 416 00:31:03,384 --> 00:31:08,664 interview after interview. So once you've seen that, and I won't name names, but there's a lot 417 00:31:08,664 --> 00:31:15,564 of them that you see over and over and over again, and they go on these tours. And I guess it works 418 00:31:15,564 --> 00:31:20,264 because they're still doing it. But then you have the conferences and these same people come up on 419 00:31:20,264 --> 00:31:24,664 stage and you're like, well, they were just on a podcast for an hour and a half or three hours. 420 00:31:24,904 --> 00:31:29,464 couple days ago and now they're on stage what new could they be talking about that i didn't hear in 421 00:31:29,464 --> 00:31:34,504 this three-hour podcast a couple days ago so do i really want to go sit and listen to this same 422 00:31:34,504 --> 00:31:39,864 person talk i get to see them in person that's cool but it's a conversation around economics 423 00:31:39,864 --> 00:31:47,944 which after studying economics non-stop and seeing literally thousands of videos since 2016 424 00:31:47,944 --> 00:31:54,184 thousands of videos thousands and thousands of hours yeah unless it's something new i'm kind of 425 00:31:54,184 --> 00:31:59,324 good. So I see a lot of the conferences starting to see that. Hopefully they start bringing in 426 00:31:59,324 --> 00:32:06,124 bands, music. Let's bring in some fun and excitement because it is the culture that is 427 00:32:06,124 --> 00:32:12,104 going to make people go, oh, wow, Bitcoin looks fun and not, oh, wow, Bitcoin is a bunch of 428 00:32:12,104 --> 00:32:19,624 podcasts that are so boring. I want to literally tear my ears out. And I'm sorry. I know it's a 429 00:32:19,624 --> 00:32:25,724 based opinion, but it's economics. And this is why most people have no clue what money is or how 430 00:32:25,724 --> 00:32:31,384 money works because they're like, this is the most boring topic. It's news talk radio around 431 00:32:31,384 --> 00:32:36,904 economics. And these are the things that as kids, we were like, oh my God, my dad listening to this 432 00:32:36,904 --> 00:32:41,964 stuff, I can't handle it. And now I am that dad and my kids have put up with it for many, many 433 00:32:41,964 --> 00:32:50,944 years now. So taking that to the next level, that content inflation, I like to form it in a way 434 00:32:50,944 --> 00:32:57,724 that people that are old like me might be able to understand and really tee it back to scarcity 435 00:32:57,724 --> 00:33:04,804 and why that is so important. So when I was a kid, you were very, very blessed to have 436 00:33:04,804 --> 00:33:11,604 cable TV. Normally, I think the majority of people had the bunny ears and you were trying 437 00:33:11,604 --> 00:33:17,204 to capture those like five channels if you were lucky so we really didn't get cartoons unless you 438 00:33:17,204 --> 00:33:20,984 were one of those kids that woke up at like five o'clock in the morning i think a couple of the 439 00:33:20,984 --> 00:33:28,344 channels had like smurfs on at like 5 a.m and then there was one more cartoon at 5 30 a.m and at 6 a.m 440 00:33:28,344 --> 00:33:34,024 boom it was news or it was whatever else stuff that was there but saturday morning we waited all 441 00:33:34,024 --> 00:33:40,684 week because that was the morning that we had cartoons all morning long and we all got them 442 00:33:40,684 --> 00:33:49,124 Saturday morning. So all week, it was this scarcity that was built around these cartoons. 443 00:33:49,124 --> 00:33:55,444 And as a kid, only getting it once a week. I mean, we were like saving our cereal. You got a little 444 00:33:55,444 --> 00:33:59,744 bit in that bag left and that's for Saturday morning. And you hit it from your brother so 445 00:33:59,744 --> 00:34:04,424 that he didn't eat it all before Saturday morning. And you hated waking up early, but Saturday, 446 00:34:04,524 --> 00:34:09,504 you were going to bed as early as you could Friday night, or you were just waking up so tired. You 447 00:34:09,504 --> 00:34:14,624 didn't even care, 5, 6 a.m. so that you could capture as many hours of cartoons as you could 448 00:34:14,624 --> 00:34:21,164 before mom and dad woke up and told you, get out of the house. It's a sunny day. That was amazing. 449 00:34:22,044 --> 00:34:29,804 That is the complete opposite of what we have today and why I think time is moving faster than 450 00:34:29,804 --> 00:34:35,284 it ever has before because everything has been inflated.

519 00:38:30,164 --> 00:38:36,804 And to your point, the same podcasts with the same guests are saying the same things 520 00:38:36,804 --> 00:38:40,744 because they aren't bringing in people from all over the world to help them stack their first stats. 521 00:38:40,824 --> 00:38:42,224 And almost every single episode is different. 522 00:38:42,224 --> 00:38:48,064 shout out to ourselves okay plus the same person can't show up except for once every nine months so 523 00:38:48,064 --> 00:38:52,664 you're guaranteed to not see repeats learning experience holler we set this show up right the 524 00:38:52,664 --> 00:39:00,864 first time um you know it's pretty simple once you learn that it works you just stack sats and 525 00:39:00,864 --> 00:39:06,264 you keep rolling you know what i mean like big there actually isn't a whole lot to bitcoin once 526 00:39:06,264 --> 00:39:11,864 you finally understand it you just buy some regularly and go out there and live your life 527 00:39:11,864 --> 00:39:25,524 So what kind of advice do you have to the brand new Bitcoiner who might be feeling this kind of sense of malaise and wants to know how to put themselves back on the right track? 528 00:39:26,984 --> 00:39:36,984 So the easiest way that I've told many, many people, and, you know, it's crazy that only a few of them have actually been able to implement it. 529 00:39:36,984 --> 00:39:44,024 It's again, it's conviction that you have to find, even if it's just your decision, it's not even Bitcoin. 530 00:39:44,024 --> 00:39:57,864 So take Bitcoin out of it altogether and just find conviction, period, and say, what amount of money can I afford weekly that would not hurt me whatsoever? 531 00:39:57,864 --> 00:40:11,324 That if I were to put it into Bitcoin, it would literally be like buying a candy bar or buying one meal out a day or whatever it might be that I don't even need. 532 00:40:11,324 --> 00:40:17,204 So sum it up. Let's say you're a person that five dollars a day. 533 00:40:17,584 --> 00:40:33,184 If you were to literally hand five dollars a day to a charity that is out for something that you believe in with all your heart and you tell yourself, I can afford right now five dollars a day. 534 00:40:33,184 --> 00:40:37,264 no problem. It wouldn't hurt me. So I'm going to take that $5. I'm going to put it into Bitcoin 535 00:40:37,264 --> 00:40:42,644 and I'm going to DCA every single day, $5, because I don't need that to pay my rent. I don't need 536 00:40:42,644 --> 00:40:48,624 that for a car payment. I honestly could just throw $5 in the trash every day. And it's not 537 00:40:48,624 --> 00:40:53,304 going to harm my bottom line at the end of the month, whether it's $5, a dollar, whatever that 538 00:40:53,304 --> 00:41:01,284 50 cents, whatever it is, find that number and DCA it into Bitcoin every day, every once a week, 539 00:41:01,284 --> 00:41:08,244 whatever it is, and remind yourself that you shouldn't even be looking at what it's worth. 540 00:41:08,504 --> 00:41:14,264 You shouldn't even be checking your bank unless you got a pay cut or something financially, 541 00:41:14,264 --> 00:41:19,944 you can't afford that $1 or $5, whatever it is a day. Other than that, you say, I have the 542 00:41:19,944 --> 00:41:26,524 conviction. It doesn't matter what Bitcoin ends up doing. This is my bet or this is my donation 543 00:41:26,524 --> 00:41:29,124 towards something positive for humanity. 544 00:41:29,264 --> 00:41:30,844 Because again, if Bitcoin is successful, 545 00:41:31,264 --> 00:41:33,684 it will be success for all of humanity. 546 00:41:34,444 --> 00:41:35,864 That's how I got my dad to jump in. 547 00:41:36,144 --> 00:41:38,244 I said, it's a charity you're donating to, 548 00:41:38,544 --> 00:41:39,684 to strengthen the protocol. 549 00:41:40,144 --> 00:41:42,624 And at the end of the day, if this charity is successful, 550 00:41:43,124 --> 00:41:47,064 you actually get a massive bonus 551 00:41:47,064 --> 00:41:49,644 on all of the money that you ever gave to the charity. 552 00:41:50,024 --> 00:41:53,844 It could 5X, 10X, 100X, 1,000X, who knows? 553 00:41:53,944 --> 00:41:55,164 There's no end to where it could go. 554 00:41:55,164 --> 00:41:57,664 So it's the only charity that you can actually get paid back on. 555 00:41:58,104 --> 00:41:59,284 So figure it out in your mind. 556 00:41:59,984 --> 00:42:01,024 Find that conviction. 557 00:42:01,284 --> 00:42:04,324 Find that amount, 50 cents, 25 cents, $5. 558 00:42:04,844 --> 00:42:06,044 Doesn't matter what it is. 559 00:42:06,244 --> 00:42:10,124 And make sure it's an amount of money that you don't need each month. 560 00:42:10,564 --> 00:42:11,744 And just put it in there. 561 00:42:12,304 --> 00:42:14,624 And don't look at it. 562 00:42:14,724 --> 00:42:17,264 And let it just continue to go and go and go. 563 00:42:17,604 --> 00:42:24,364 And one day, there will come a time that you open it up and you go, this was the best decision that I ever made. 564 00:42:24,364 --> 00:42:34,584 And there's really no way of saying that it isn't because that was money that you were going to throw away on a candy bar or a bottled water or to a charity or whatever it might be anyway. 565 00:42:35,104 --> 00:42:36,344 I think that's the biggest one. 566 00:42:36,484 --> 00:42:42,224 Don't invest more money in the beginning, especially until you have 100 percent conviction. 567 00:42:42,424 --> 00:42:47,444 Do not invest more money than you can afford to lose because you will continue to look at it. 568 00:42:47,504 --> 00:42:50,824 You will continue to open up your app or whatever it's on and constantly go. 569 00:42:50,884 --> 00:42:51,984 Did I make the right choice? 570 00:42:52,424 --> 00:42:53,464 It's dropping in value. 571 00:42:53,464 --> 00:43:00,624 Should I stop my DCA? Should I increase my DC? If you just put an amount in there that you can 572 00:43:00,624 --> 00:43:07,124 afford to lose every single day, you shouldn't worry about it. Just let it do its thing. And 573 00:43:07,124 --> 00:43:12,424 I've seen that be the most successful strategy out of any of the people that have actually 574 00:43:12,424 --> 00:43:16,904 implemented it. I mean, it's incredible. You could go all the way back to when I got in 575 00:43:16,904 --> 00:43:23,424 um, 20, 21,000 peak kind of ish and back down. 576 00:43:23,424 --> 00:43:27,264 And I didn't have much money then. And my kids, very similar to lion, 577 00:43:27,384 --> 00:43:31,864 they were putting in $5 here, $10 there, $1 here and there. 578 00:43:32,304 --> 00:43:34,684 It was the best decision that they ever made, 579 00:43:34,804 --> 00:43:57,756 especially dating back as far and Bitcoin it encapsulating all the money on earth So how high could Bitcoin go Uh well I gonna buy Ethereum or I wanna buy this other crap coin because unit bias I can get a hundred of these a thousand of these I never own a whole Bitcoin Yeah Find a way to get the unit bias out of your mind because at the end 580 00:43:57,756 --> 00:44:04,396 of the day, I love your show, Sats Chats. Make your goal in Satoshis. I want to be a Satoshi 581 00:44:04,396 --> 00:44:09,836 millionaire. What would it take to be a Satoshi millionaire today? I can't see your pricing, 582 00:44:09,836 --> 00:44:19,276 but I think we're like 68, nine. So let's say $700 and you are a Satoshi millionaire. So start 583 00:44:19,276 --> 00:44:25,096 putting that in your mind and going, okay, if I start putting in a dollar a day, that's like 30 584 00:44:25,096 --> 00:44:31,396 bucks a month on average. So within a year or two from now at a dollar a day, 30 bucks a month, 585 00:44:31,436 --> 00:44:36,776 which in America is nothing. I could be a Satoshi millionaire potentially within a year, 586 00:44:36,776 --> 00:44:41,996 a year and a half of them now. That's huge. And if it drops in value during that time, not value, 587 00:44:41,996 --> 00:44:47,656 drops in fiat price during that time, you could be a Satoshi millionaire in six months potentially. 588 00:44:48,876 --> 00:44:54,596 So just find it in your mind. I think for most people that are listening that are not fully all 589 00:44:54,596 --> 00:45:01,736 into Bitcoin, you will be so freaking successful if you just invest what you can afford to lose 590 00:45:01,736 --> 00:45:03,576 every week or every month. 591 00:45:03,736 --> 00:45:05,456 And do not put more than that 592 00:45:05,456 --> 00:45:07,696 because you will not question your investment 593 00:45:07,696 --> 00:45:09,836 because it's money you were going to throw away. 594 00:45:11,496 --> 00:45:13,356 So before, first of all, 595 00:45:13,656 --> 00:45:15,196 not that based, right? 596 00:45:15,596 --> 00:45:16,916 Just like the trading cards. 597 00:45:17,036 --> 00:45:18,716 Just before we jump into the hummus, 598 00:45:18,796 --> 00:45:21,816 give us three minutes on your fourth series of cards, 599 00:45:21,816 --> 00:45:26,536 which are literally getting gobbled up by the time. 600 00:45:26,836 --> 00:45:29,876 I'm like, the notifications from your Telegram community 601 00:45:29,876 --> 00:45:30,916 are hitting my phone. 602 00:45:30,916 --> 00:45:38,236 and dudes are like, I bought a box, I bought a bundle, I bought three bundles, says that I can't 603 00:45:38,236 --> 00:45:45,556 even get any more on the website.

I might want to know how many packs my favorite trading company prints. So to your point of our 644 00:48:33,196 --> 00:48:35,196 community going nuts and 645 00:48:35,196 --> 00:48:41,336 Big values around the secondary market of these cards. It's because of transparency. It's because of scarcity 646 00:48:41,576 --> 00:48:45,976 It's because of finite supply that does not exist in the hobby today 647 00:48:45,976 --> 00:48:54,376 day. So we are the Bitcoin to the trading card industry. And that is what I think gets people 648 00:48:54,376 --> 00:49:01,076 really fired up around our cards is that you have a company you can trust that puts out verifiable 649 00:49:01,076 --> 00:49:06,076 numbers. And this is something that other companies don't do. And again, I'm not trying to put shade 650 00:49:06,076 --> 00:49:10,996 on these other companies. They are what inspired me to do what I'm doing. I love the trading card 651 00:49:10,996 --> 00:49:19,936 industry. I just want the same way you would say an educated investor is a successful investor. 652 00:49:20,716 --> 00:49:27,396 An educated trading card collector or collector in general is a successful collector. I want to 653 00:49:27,396 --> 00:49:32,196 bring that same thing into trading cards. I want to teach as many people about Bitcoin, money, 654 00:49:32,196 --> 00:49:40,576 freedom, ethics, just good values that we need back in this world. I think the best and simplest 655 00:49:40,576 --> 00:49:45,996 way to do that is meet people where they're at. And the trading card industry is a generational 656 00:49:45,996 --> 00:49:51,556 industry. You got grandfather that collected, he passed down to his granddaughter or to his 657 00:49:51,556 --> 00:49:59,916 daughter or son. She passed those down to her child. I love that about the culture in collectibles. 658 00:50:00,476 --> 00:50:07,776 Same with classic cards. You have generational families together in the garage together, 659 00:50:07,776 --> 00:50:13,296 working on these cars and passing them down. This is the beauty. This is the getting back to the good 660 00:50:13,296 --> 00:50:18,756 old days that I want to try to promote as much as I can with my product. And I think this is where 661 00:50:18,756 --> 00:50:23,576 the success of base trading cards is really starting to explode. And we just got our first 662 00:50:23,576 --> 00:50:30,196 major retail partner with Dave and Adams, largest online trading card store in the entire world. 663 00:50:30,196 --> 00:50:35,856 And they are our first online retailer. This is massive. And this is where we're starting to 664 00:50:35,856 --> 00:50:42,896 really get that uptick and move into the traditional trading card market in a way we never had. 665 00:50:43,136 --> 00:50:47,616 And we've got a lot of incredible things coming this year. This is our big launch year. It's been 666 00:50:47,616 --> 00:50:54,516 four years building up to this year and we're going as hard and as based as ever before. 667 00:50:55,516 --> 00:51:00,496 Hopefully more and more people will be hearing the word based and relating that to trading cards. 668 00:51:01,076 --> 00:51:01,876 Let's go. 669 00:51:02,096 --> 00:51:03,436 That's awesome.
