1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,760
A French judge is being punished.

2
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:06,420
He says that Visa and MasterCard have blocked his cards and he can't make any purchases.

3
00:00:06,620 --> 00:00:07,740
So this is crazy stuff.

4
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:09,220
What are you talking about, Sophie?

5
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,880
You sound like some crazy conspiracy theorist, man.

6
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:13,540
The money in the bank, it's ours.

7
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:14,720
Since when?

8
00:00:14,720 --> 00:00:17,340
The mining difficulty is down.

9
00:00:17,900 --> 00:00:20,860
What better time to actually start mining?

10
00:00:21,220 --> 00:00:25,920
There's been a lot of stories of miners waking up to that blinking light.

11
00:00:26,240 --> 00:00:27,020
He may not like this.

12
00:00:27,020 --> 00:00:30,940
He understands who's funding the war and who's benefiting from the war.

13
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:37,580
So not only do you not own your money, soon there will be no one to complain to about you not owning your money.

14
00:00:43,060 --> 00:00:46,720
War is always used as a means of governments expanding control.

15
00:00:46,900 --> 00:00:54,620
In the First World War, speech was censored in the U.S. and citizens arrested for criticizing the government or speaking out against war bonds and military conscription.

16
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:59,380
World War II introduced Japanese internment camps, Vietnam included false flags to sway

17
00:00:59,380 --> 00:01:03,140
public opinion, and the war on terror gave us the infamous Patriot Act.

18
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:07,360
And now those saying the wrong things about the war in Iran are being punished.

19
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:08,160
Hey, everyone.

20
00:01:08,300 --> 00:01:10,300
Welcome to another episode of Bitcoin Banter.

21
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,560
I have Tony and our good friend Sophie here with me.

22
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,580
Guys, let's talk about this first story.

23
00:01:15,780 --> 00:01:21,460
So a French judge is being punished for calling for the arrest of Netanyahu at the International

24
00:01:21,460 --> 00:01:22,560
Criminal Court.

25
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:27,720
He says that Visa and MasterCard have blocked his cards and he can't make any purchases.

26
00:01:27,940 --> 00:01:29,500
So this is crazy stuff.

27
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,420
Sophie, I'll let you weigh in first.

28
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,220
What are your thoughts on this story?

29
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:38,520
I mean, I kind of like it when things like this happen because it proves the use case

30
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:39,680
for Bitcoin.

31
00:01:40,060 --> 00:01:47,360
It proves why no matter who you are, you can be attacked by the central banking system.

32
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:53,360
And if you have a way out, then, you know, there's nothing that they can do to you.

33
00:01:53,480 --> 00:02:02,640
You really don't have freedom of speech if they can take away your right to transact and to move and to, you know, and they want to make this worse.

34
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:12,940
They want to make this even more conscriptive by creating 15 minute cities, by creating AI that monitors every single move that you make.

35
00:02:12,940 --> 00:02:14,860
And so, you know, this is just the beginning.

36
00:02:14,860 --> 00:02:30,600
The transacting aspect of it is bleak, but we are heading into some dark times with the advancement of technology and the way that people are using it to control the narrative out there.

37
00:02:30,900 --> 00:02:36,960
What are you talking about, Sophie? You sound like some crazy conspiracy theorist, man. The money in the bank, it's ours.

38
00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:43,760
since you know you know it's never it's never been ours it's never been ours it's always just

39
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,620
been numbers on a screen we live in a psyop oh man i'm sorry we live in a simulation

40
00:02:47,620 --> 00:02:54,320
that's just talking nonsense this is god being becoming a mom has radicalized me

41
00:02:54,320 --> 00:03:01,880
becoming a mom point like 2.0 has radicalized me this my friends my friends actually sent me this

42
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:11,880
website where you can like it's it's a tracker for these cameras that use AI to track where your

43
00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:20,040
car is going. And so, you know, this is this really is getting dark and transacting like the whole,

44
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:26,020
you know, exchanging of money situation here. That's just the beginning. We are we are going

45
00:03:26,020 --> 00:03:33,640
to inevitably end up in a place where they start to control where we go, who we talk to,

46
00:03:34,180 --> 00:03:40,340
how we interact with one another. And so it starts with the fundamental layer of society,

47
00:03:40,340 --> 00:03:46,880
which is money. And if you can opt out now, there is a chance that they won't be able to

48
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:54,780
stop you from exercising your freedoms later. Yeah, absolutely, man. For this sick, sick plan

49
00:03:54,780 --> 00:04:01,860
of theirs to work, they need 100% participation around the globe. And I just don't see that

50
00:04:01,860 --> 00:04:07,120
happening. And I'm really happy these events take place. I mean, it sucks for this poor judge,

51
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:11,220
but I hope it serves as a wake-up call to everyone sitting on the sidelines,

52
00:04:11,660 --> 00:04:16,120
still delusional about the fact that they own their money, that worthless paper sitting in the

53
00:04:16,120 --> 00:04:21,340
bank. Not only is it worthless, but it's not even yours, and it will be removed from you at any

54
00:04:21,340 --> 00:04:27,640
given moment for any given reason if a judge is being treated like some you know high-rated criminal

55
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:37,120
for doing his job oh you the regular pleb like you are jesus christ you'll be gone you know with a

56
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:43,920
sneeze so uh please pay attention and start looking at alternatives there are you know viable

57
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:49,140
alternatives real alternatives not funny money man all this bitcoin talk all these crazy people

58
00:04:49,140 --> 00:04:50,660
that talk about Bitcoin all day,

59
00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:54,320
they do it for the good of humanity

60
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,940
because either they've come from a horrible event

61
00:04:57,940 --> 00:04:59,860
like myself where I woke up literally,

62
00:05:00,260 --> 00:05:01,700
I'm worse off than this judge.

63
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,860
Then they just restricted access for him for now.

64
00:05:05,140 --> 00:05:07,480
In my case, they stole absolutely everything

65
00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,220
along with every citizen in the country.

66
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:14,620
So if you think this is just like an isolated event,

67
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,120
I've got very bad news for you.

68
00:05:16,220 --> 00:05:18,680
Like Sophie said, man, this is just the tip of the iceberg.

69
00:05:19,140 --> 00:05:20,300
It will get worse.

70
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:29,980
We are dealing with like the worst form of psychopathic lunatics out there that genuinely believe they have the right to play God and own the people on this planet.

71
00:05:30,280 --> 00:05:36,220
And it's up to every individual to stand up, you know, put your feet firm on the ground and draw the line.

72
00:05:36,700 --> 00:05:38,340
Tell them, no, you don't own me.

73
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:43,720
And the way you're going to do this is by refusing to use their product, their money.

74
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,120
Use the alternative that they can't control.

75
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,520
And there's only one for simplicity.

76
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:55,220
Bitcoin in self-custody. Absolutely. Well said. And Tony, actually, you guys both had on an

77
00:05:55,220 --> 00:05:58,480
important point that I wanted to bring up here because this guy posted, he said,

78
00:05:58,540 --> 00:06:02,980
ownership in brokerage accounts is not real ownership. I have $101 in a Robinhood account

79
00:06:02,980 --> 00:06:06,280
that I didn't log into for three years and now the state wants to take it.

80
00:06:06,820 --> 00:06:10,980
So Tony, I think I mentioned this on our live stream last week that I watched this documentary.

81
00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:15,480
It's like an hour and 15 minutes long, very short, called The Great Taking. And it's this

82
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:22,020
former Wall Street guy who basically went in and dug deep on the case law around who owns like your

83
00:06:22,020 --> 00:06:26,500
stock portfolio, for example, and you don't own like an individual stock certificate. Of course,

84
00:06:26,540 --> 00:06:32,380
it could be confiscated anyway. But even beyond that, it all rolls up to one institution who is

85
00:06:32,380 --> 00:06:37,660
who effectively is owned by names you would be very familiar with if you're a Bitcoiner or paying

86
00:06:37,660 --> 00:06:42,320
attention to what's going on in the world. And I think this is another great example. This is not

87
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:47,100
necessarily war related. But this is these are the sorts of capital controls, the sorts of

88
00:06:47,100 --> 00:06:50,340
circumstances I think we're going to see increasingly people being locked out of their

89
00:06:50,340 --> 00:06:57,360
money. What's your why? It's why we go to war, right? Ultimately, it all connects back because

90
00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:04,920
the only reason people go to war is it isn't the reason that they tell you on CNN or Fox.

91
00:07:05,220 --> 00:07:11,380
It's it's it's because of this. It's the money. They want more money. They want to enrich

92
00:07:11,380 --> 00:07:16,620
themselves they think that by making us all fight each other they can hoard all the wealth for

93
00:07:16,620 --> 00:07:24,000
themselves and this is just one of the other ways to do it you don't think that all of these uh war

94
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:30,580
stocks are you know pumping right now i i'm not sure because i don't own stocks and i don't check

95
00:07:30,580 --> 00:07:36,640
them but i would i would guess that they are you know and the people that the people manufacturing

96
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:41,660
the bombs, the people manufacturing the tanks and the airplanes and the drones and the the

97
00:07:41,660 --> 00:07:43,740
AI that powers all of this.

98
00:07:43,860 --> 00:07:50,560
I mean, Anthropic is basically or sorry, Palantir, I think, is at the center of all of this when

99
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:51,560
it comes to intelligence.

100
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,580
These are all the people who are making money.

101
00:07:54,580 --> 00:08:02,520
And so it doesn't surprise me to see that the the real owners of the stocks are, you

102
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:05,100
know, they should be connected to this in some way.

103
00:08:05,100 --> 00:08:08,820
And if we think that they're not, you know, we're just not digging deep enough.

104
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:14,220
Of course, man, this entire ecosystem was rigged since the day it was created, right?

105
00:08:14,300 --> 00:08:16,400
It's created to steal, censor and control.

106
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:21,420
And this is just power hungry lunatics doing, you know, what they were meant to do.

107
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:25,760
And so, but they're doing it at the expense of, you know, a population.

108
00:08:26,060 --> 00:08:32,780
So you need to stop using and opting into anything that they throw at you just because you believe you don't have a choice.

109
00:08:32,780 --> 00:08:34,620
Every living soul here has a choice.

110
00:08:35,100 --> 00:08:40,200
There's no such thing as, you know, I have to wait for my next door neighbor to do what I want to do for me to do it.

111
00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:41,900
You lead by example.

112
00:08:41,900 --> 00:08:48,380
And eventually, you know, the people will follow the strong and the intelligent, just like they did five years ago with this pandemic.

113
00:08:48,380 --> 00:08:49,580
They will do with it anything.

114
00:08:49,580 --> 00:08:55,320
But as long as folks keep blindly complying to bullshit, they're always going to end up screwed and no one's going to care.

115
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:56,540
Yeah.

116
00:08:56,620 --> 00:08:58,060
The thing is, it's so convenient.

117
00:08:58,340 --> 00:09:02,820
It's so convenient to fall into all of these things that they throw at you.

118
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:04,620
It's convenient to follow the narrative.

119
00:09:04,620 --> 00:09:26,846
It convenient to use fiat money It convenient to be using AI right now Everything that we see in our feeds is AI slop You know nothing is is original anymore And that what they want They want to take away any individuality of thought so that they can control the masses Like that ultimately where

120
00:09:26,846 --> 00:09:34,126
this leads. And it starts with money and it ends with your ability to speak and express yourself

121
00:09:34,126 --> 00:09:39,586
in your own unique way. Yeah, absolutely. Luckily, it's not affecting everybody. You know,

122
00:09:39,586 --> 00:09:46,926
All we need is enough people to opt out and prove that a better alternative exists.

123
00:09:47,106 --> 00:09:50,406
And I'm genuinely very, very bullish on this happening.

124
00:09:50,686 --> 00:09:56,106
And then we'll start seeing a massive shift from the bad side towards the good one.

125
00:09:56,466 --> 00:09:58,286
Tony, I got to be honest with you, though.

126
00:09:58,546 --> 00:10:04,406
I'm increasingly less bullish on more people waking up because I think I had the impression

127
00:10:04,406 --> 00:10:08,886
when I came into Bitcoin after COVID, I was under the impression,

128
00:10:08,886 --> 00:10:14,286
oh, the world is waking up, but I'm more concerned that maybe I'm just in an echo chamber that is

129
00:10:14,286 --> 00:10:19,126
paying attention to the stuff and does recognize it. Like in my personal life, I really don't see

130
00:10:19,126 --> 00:10:23,706
a whole lot of progress, like looking around at friends, family, other people who I have close

131
00:10:23,706 --> 00:10:28,666
relationships with outside of Bitcoin and Twitter. On a global scale, you are in an echo chamber.

132
00:10:28,826 --> 00:10:34,426
What I can tell you is that echo chamber is growing. And if you just move places where there's

133
00:10:34,426 --> 00:10:38,686
a lot of other like-minded individuals, like for example, where we were hanging out just a few

134
00:10:38,686 --> 00:10:43,306
weeks ago, you'll very quickly assume that the whole world is like you.

135
00:10:44,166 --> 00:10:50,206
But again, good things, like the word of mouth spreads very fast.

136
00:10:50,526 --> 00:10:55,446
In the same way that bad news spreads fast, good news also spreads fast.

137
00:10:55,446 --> 00:11:00,406
And people will go to where their lives are upgraded, to where their incentives are better,

138
00:11:00,526 --> 00:11:05,006
to where they're welcome, to where they feel safe, where they feel united with like-minded

139
00:11:05,006 --> 00:11:05,626
individuals.

140
00:11:05,626 --> 00:11:09,346
I see this, which is why I remain very bullish.

141
00:11:09,706 --> 00:11:13,326
And compared to a few years ago, the numbers are significantly higher.

142
00:11:14,046 --> 00:11:17,706
So the more bad news we see around the world, I mean, yes, it's terrible.

143
00:11:18,206 --> 00:11:26,786
But at the same time, the silver lining is that it's the best form of advertising to get people to get off their ass and do something useful.

144
00:11:27,866 --> 00:11:28,406
Yeah, that's fair.

145
00:11:28,486 --> 00:11:31,446
So basically, I need to upgrade my friends and my home location.

146
00:11:31,646 --> 00:11:31,866
Yeah.

147
00:11:31,866 --> 00:11:35,926
Yeah, you wouldn't be the first or the last to do this.

148
00:11:36,646 --> 00:11:44,126
Yeah. So, hey, on this war in Iran, I wanted to touch on this. This is a very interesting tweet from Iran's parliament speaker.

149
00:11:44,366 --> 00:11:51,346
He said, in addition to military bases, those financial institutions that fund the U.S. military budget are considered legitimate targets.

150
00:11:51,586 --> 00:11:53,966
U.S. Treasury bonds are tainted with the blood of Iranians.

151
00:11:53,966 --> 00:11:59,026
If you proceed to purchase them, you are, in fact, attacking your own assets and primary headquarters.

152
00:11:59,346 --> 00:12:00,966
We are monitoring your investment portfolios.

153
00:12:01,866 --> 00:12:04,186
So this guy, I mean, you may not like this.

154
00:12:04,186 --> 00:12:08,426
He understands who's funding the war and who's benefiting from the war.

155
00:12:08,426 --> 00:12:09,426
Of course.

156
00:12:09,426 --> 00:12:14,466
So not only do you not own your money, soon it will be no one to complain to

157
00:12:14,466 --> 00:12:16,626
about you not owning your money.

158
00:12:16,626 --> 00:12:18,266
Oh, my God.

159
00:12:18,266 --> 00:12:18,946
This is a lot.

160
00:12:18,946 --> 00:12:24,066
Here's the interesting thing for me when I read this is I've seen a lot of tweets,

161
00:12:24,066 --> 00:12:29,466
responses to this from Bitcoiners who are like this is financial terrorism,

162
00:12:29,466 --> 00:12:30,626
you know, et cetera, et cetera.

163
00:12:30,626 --> 00:12:36,786
like the things you might expect. But to me, that takes a very myopic US centric worldview,

164
00:12:36,906 --> 00:12:42,666
which I understand. That's our bias here in the US. However, if we were to attack Iranian

165
00:12:42,666 --> 00:12:48,166
financial centers because they were funding Iran's war effort, everyone would be cheering it on.

166
00:12:48,606 --> 00:12:53,466
You have to you have to understand that many Americans just believe Iran is this great evil

167
00:12:53,466 --> 00:12:58,766
empire. But like step back and put yourself in their shoes. They want to attack the people funding

168
00:12:58,766 --> 00:13:04,886
our war just the way that we would want to attack the people funding their war. And it's hard for me

169
00:13:04,886 --> 00:13:12,386
to find fault in that, even if I don't like civilian casualties, right? That's the path

170
00:13:12,386 --> 00:13:19,686
we've chosen with this war, best I can tell. Well, who started it all? Iran. They were building

171
00:13:19,686 --> 00:13:25,826
a nuclear weapon for the last 30 years, Tony, right? In the same way Iraq was, right? In the

172
00:13:25,826 --> 00:13:31,666
same way Libya was before, right? Well, this just goes back. I mean, it's not really a question of

173
00:13:31,666 --> 00:13:37,046
who started it. I think that that's, you know, who what came first, the chicken or the egg

174
00:13:37,046 --> 00:13:45,066
kind of argument, because right now we we can see who started it clearly. But if you go back

175
00:13:45,066 --> 00:13:52,126
and you go further back and you go further back, it's not actually the people that we think it is.

176
00:13:52,126 --> 00:13:57,326
and this is part of the PSYOP, I really think that they are pitting people against each other

177
00:13:57,326 --> 00:14:04,126
because they know that regular people are very tribal. But in reality, if you understand history,

178
00:14:04,126 --> 00:14:10,946
you see that the people who are funding these wars are the same people who have existed for,

179
00:14:11,186 --> 00:14:17,566
you know, over 100 years, who have had control of modern society through what? Through fiat.

180
00:14:17,566 --> 00:14:38,106
And so it all boils down to that. It's not really a, you know, where are you from, you know, or where you go or how, you know, what you believe in so much as it is. What are your incentives? And when you follow the incentives, you follow and you find who it is that is actually behind these wars.

181
00:14:38,106 --> 00:14:45,106
You you figure out who it is that stands to benefit from all of us fighting each other and all of us saying, oh, it's you.

182
00:14:45,226 --> 00:14:48,406
No, it's you. Like it's like the Spider-Man costume meme, right?

183
00:14:48,866 --> 00:14:51,406
It's it's three Spider-Man's. We're all pointing at each other.

184
00:14:51,406 --> 00:14:57,366
But in reality, it's like the guy who's taking the picture of all the Spider-Man saying, ha ha, we're making you fight.

185
00:14:57,466 --> 00:15:04,946
And those are the people who are in control of the banks are in control of central central currency fiat.

186
00:15:04,946 --> 00:15:07,666
that they're the ones who are making us fight.

187
00:15:07,926 --> 00:15:12,646
And the only way to really stop fighting each other

188
00:15:12,646 --> 00:15:15,686
is to just opt out and just tell them,

189
00:15:15,826 --> 00:15:17,366
we're not going to deal with this anymore.

190
00:15:17,486 --> 00:15:18,926
We're not going to be in your system.

191
00:15:19,706 --> 00:15:20,926
Yeah, completely agreed, man.

192
00:15:20,986 --> 00:15:23,226
And for all we know, this could all be theater too.

193
00:15:23,406 --> 00:15:24,766
I mean, depending who you listen to,

194
00:15:25,246 --> 00:15:28,186
there are some theories that they're all on the same side

195
00:15:28,186 --> 00:15:32,726
and this is just a whole show for the world to see.

196
00:15:32,726 --> 00:15:39,766
think that there's a good side and a bad side. Yeah, I think Simon Dixon makes a pretty compelling

197
00:15:39,766 --> 00:15:43,346
case along those lines. One of the tweets he shared recently, I remember him saying

198
00:15:43,346 --> 00:15:48,326
that the financial industrial complex is going to pay for the destruction and the rebuild.

199
00:15:48,926 --> 00:15:52,786
And that's what we're going to... I am 100% sure that we're going to see that. And Sophie,

200
00:15:52,786 --> 00:15:57,326
to your point, yes, ultimately, it comes back to the central banks. And by the way,

201
00:15:57,446 --> 00:16:01,786
privately held, right? These are privately controlled quasi-government agencies, not

202
00:16:01,786 --> 00:16:06,806
government institutions. So, yeah, I think this is all all stands to reason. Unfortunately,

203
00:16:06,806 --> 00:16:10,986
one of the consequences of this now is that the Department of State is advising Americans

204
00:16:10,986 --> 00:16:16,586
worldwide to exercise increased caution, to which I would say, no shit. That's probably what's going

205
00:16:16,586 --> 00:16:22,506
to happen when you start, you know, when you start bombing. What was it, a school like in the

206
00:16:22,506 --> 00:16:26,946
first couple of days? And oops, we missed the military target we were going for. That's horrific.

207
00:16:26,946 --> 00:16:29,566
I can't believe that we're not talking about that more.

208
00:16:29,866 --> 00:16:31,966
That's like so inconceivable.

209
00:16:32,746 --> 00:16:33,226
Yeah, of course.

210
00:16:33,646 --> 00:16:33,906
Of course.

211
00:16:34,026 --> 00:16:36,606
Can you imagine the upper back to my previous point, though?

212
00:16:36,606 --> 00:16:39,846
Can you imagine the uproar if Iran bombed a school in the United States?

213
00:16:40,546 --> 00:16:43,246
Like that's someone's kid didn't come home.

214
00:16:43,966 --> 00:16:44,926
And like that.

215
00:16:45,106 --> 00:16:48,146
And we just move on because it's a 24 hour news cycle.

216
00:16:48,166 --> 00:16:49,326
And we just continue with our day.

217
00:16:49,386 --> 00:16:52,946
I mean, like all three of us are parents like can't even imagine that.

218
00:16:53,006 --> 00:16:54,146
But that's someone's reality.

219
00:16:54,146 --> 00:16:55,646
And they didn't ask for any of this.

220
00:16:55,646 --> 00:16:57,406
They didn't ask for this from their government.

221
00:16:57,546 --> 00:17:00,046
They didn't ask for this from the United States or any of our allies.

222
00:17:00,726 --> 00:17:02,466
I mean, it's absolute insanity.

223
00:17:03,006 --> 00:17:06,286
Well, I mean, you can't keep going around bullying people forever.

224
00:17:06,526 --> 00:17:07,746
Eventually, it comes home.

225
00:17:07,946 --> 00:17:10,166
And I think this is what we're starting to see now.

226
00:17:10,526 --> 00:17:15,326
And I think a lot of Americans are waking up to the reality that, you know, these aren't

227
00:17:15,326 --> 00:17:16,486
foreign problems anymore.

228
00:17:17,206 --> 00:17:20,066
They might have been once upon a time.

229
00:17:20,066 --> 00:17:24,326
But now, you know, this whole nightmare is coming home really fast.

230
00:17:25,646 --> 00:17:32,286
And it's not even the people's fault. Like it's, uh, advisors, Americans exercise caution. Why

231
00:17:32,286 --> 00:17:39,306
should you exercise caution? Did you go ahead and invade some other fucking country? Was it your,

232
00:17:39,366 --> 00:17:44,366
was it your decision? Of course not. No. And most people, most people don't want it anyway.

233
00:17:44,366 --> 00:17:49,506
Right. I mean, you, you got like the, the, the Fox news watching MAGA people who are going to

234
00:17:49,506 --> 00:17:54,046
be behind Trump no matter what he does. But I think even the average sort of conservative

235
00:17:54,046 --> 00:18:01,486
American is looking at this and saying, why? It feels like it's Groundhog Day, right? This is

236
00:18:01,486 --> 00:18:10,246
weapons of mass destruction, 9-11 world all over again. What did we accomplish in all of that?

237
00:18:10,246 --> 00:18:15,066
So yeah, I think this is all to be expected though. The money printer is going to go burr.

238
00:18:15,146 --> 00:18:19,966
There's going to be more control. Sophie, to your point earlier, Palantir is going to be behind mass

239
00:18:19,966 --> 00:18:25,006
surveillance and enough people are going to be on board with it that it's going to happen.

240
00:18:25,006 --> 00:18:28,766
And you have to decide what you do with it. I would argue you should probably get some Bitcoin,

241
00:18:28,766 --> 00:18:46,391
take self and try to live a more peaceful self life And go move to better jurisdictions Yes And of course Tony move to better jurisdictions We got one that you might want to consider So last sort of Iran discussion here I want to have So this is why I think this

242
00:18:46,391 --> 00:18:51,812
could be all pre-planned. So one of the things that happened is that Donald Trump, according to

243
00:18:51,812 --> 00:18:56,471
this post by Jason Smith, is achieving the Petro-Yuan system. So nations are paying for oil

244
00:18:56,471 --> 00:19:01,411
Inuan to be granted safe passage through the Strait of Hormuz. India just did this.

245
00:19:02,411 --> 00:19:08,571
To me, I almost wonder if this is some sort of a transition period into a world where,

246
00:19:08,772 --> 00:19:13,391
a multipolar world where you've got the US and the West, which I mean, the whole Greenland,

247
00:19:13,512 --> 00:19:18,631
Venezuela, Cuba thing sort of unfolding. Any of that I think is a good indication of this.

248
00:19:19,391 --> 00:19:24,111
Obviously, oil prices are going to be impacted and maybe it's going to lead us back toward

249
00:19:24,111 --> 00:19:28,671
Western sources of oil like Venezuela, like our own drilling capacity in the US.

250
00:19:29,552 --> 00:19:33,552
I don't know. What do you guys think when we emerge from this, whether it's a couple of weeks

251
00:19:33,552 --> 00:19:39,231
from now, a couple of years from now, is this like the tipping point where we go from US global power

252
00:19:39,231 --> 00:19:44,191
to, okay, now there's kind of this sort of the BRICS coalition and there's sort of the NATO

253
00:19:44,191 --> 00:19:48,351
West coalition, or do you think the world looks somewhat similar?

254
00:19:48,351 --> 00:19:51,871
I don't know, man. I think we're moving towards a world where we have

255
00:19:51,871 --> 00:19:58,351
have many currencies at play here and no longer one dominant global reserve, so to speak.

256
00:19:58,851 --> 00:20:04,931
I think eventually, given a long enough time frame, everything comes back to Bitcoin because

257
00:20:04,931 --> 00:20:11,032
it's the only neutral currency that can ultimately become the new global reserve.

258
00:20:11,752 --> 00:20:14,611
But in the meantime, the best we can do is speculate.

259
00:20:14,931 --> 00:20:19,371
I mean, the petro yuan, that's a big deal, man, because that means if you're very gung

260
00:20:19,371 --> 00:20:25,371
who on the dollar that just you know gave it the middle finger so whether it's planned whether it's

261
00:20:25,371 --> 00:20:31,812
uh part of the theater like i don't even want to guess it happened can't deny that i mean whether

262
00:20:31,812 --> 00:20:37,411
you know people were okay with it whether people made sure it happened just uh you know god knows

263
00:20:37,411 --> 00:20:42,552
i mean it's all speculation at that point at least in my opinion yeah that's that's true sophie do

264
00:20:42,552 --> 00:20:48,711
you have an opinion on this i don't really see this as a stepping stone um to be honest with you

265
00:20:48,711 --> 00:20:56,971
what I see just from my experience as a Venezuelan is tether being kind of a stepping stone or

266
00:20:56,971 --> 00:21:02,772
something that is pegged to the dollar. I think that what's going on here with the yuan is kind

267
00:21:02,772 --> 00:21:09,831
of more of like a one time thing. And like because we are in crisis mode with Iran and the war and

268
00:21:09,831 --> 00:21:16,532
whatever. But I just don't see the world adopting the yuan. Maybe that's just because I was born

269
00:21:16,532 --> 00:21:23,331
into a world that has the dollar dominance and you know it's been that way for many many years

270
00:21:23,331 --> 00:21:31,911
but i just don't see us like continuing more of the same or in my opinion going backwards which

271
00:21:31,911 --> 00:21:38,772
which is what we would be doing if we adopted a yuan standard globally i think that the future

272
00:21:38,772 --> 00:21:47,711
is digital currencies and the the like the one that is closest to um the dollar which is tether

273
00:21:47,711 --> 00:21:54,931
has already been proven in venezuela and so i think that i think that is kind of like the next

274
00:21:54,931 --> 00:21:59,012
stepping stone i don't think that that it's going to be the yuan i really think this is just like

275
00:21:59,012 --> 00:22:07,272
an emergency situation and then eventually people will realize hey like transacting in usd like

276
00:22:07,272 --> 00:22:13,331
tether it's kind of like the same thing as fiat so why don't i just hop on over to bitcoin i think

277
00:22:13,331 --> 00:22:19,711
that's more like the natural transition i think if we ended up you know adopting the yuan we're

278
00:22:19,711 --> 00:22:26,072
just gonna like run this cycle again for hundreds of years and it would be just like a lot better

279
00:22:26,072 --> 00:22:34,171
if we just all went the the digital route so that we can get one step closer to bitcoin adoption

280
00:22:35,111 --> 00:22:39,631
So I think you're probably right about that. I wouldn't be surprised though, if the way that it

281
00:22:39,631 --> 00:22:46,611
is rolled out is sort of regional, I guess. So where Tether becomes like the, and honestly,

282
00:22:46,752 --> 00:22:51,792
I mean, Tony, we talk about this a lot, like the CBDC of the West, and then the rest of the world

283
00:22:51,792 --> 00:22:55,431
becomes less reliant on the dollar because they just reject it. They don't want it. They don't

284
00:22:55,431 --> 00:23:01,552
want to deal with us. And then the Chinese CBDC becomes ubiquitous in sort of the Eastern

285
00:23:01,552 --> 00:23:06,731
hemisphere or something like that. Either way, I think all paths lead to certainly digital currency.

286
00:23:07,671 --> 00:23:12,552
And Tony, I hate to take your talking point here, but the Elysium that you talk about where

287
00:23:12,552 --> 00:23:17,691
most people are trapped in the Tether CBDC world. And then some of us who figured out Bitcoin before

288
00:23:17,691 --> 00:23:23,572
the on ramps were closed, we're operating on a Bitcoin standard and have a way of life that

289
00:23:23,572 --> 00:23:27,532
most people couldn't possibly dream of. Yeah. Couldn't agree more, man. I think the stable

290
00:23:27,532 --> 00:23:32,171
coins, it's going to be a very violent wake up call to a lot of folks. I mean, like I said,

291
00:23:32,211 --> 00:23:36,451
initially, they'll let it do what it wants, you know, free flow, people will be happy. Look at

292
00:23:36,451 --> 00:23:39,711
this. I don't need my bank. I don't need my headache. I don't need this. I have money directly

293
00:23:39,711 --> 00:23:45,931
in my phone. And then, you know, when enough stooges are in the same circle, there goes that

294
00:23:45,931 --> 00:23:53,371
switch. And welcome to your new digital gulag. Yeah, absolutely. All righty, guys, let's jump

295
00:23:53,371 --> 00:23:59,371
to some Bitcoin talk. So the Bitcoin mining difficulty dropped by 7.7% in a sharp adjustment,

296
00:23:59,812 --> 00:24:03,591
marking the steepest decline since February and reflecting shifts in network hash rate and

297
00:24:03,591 --> 00:24:10,111
minor participation. So the price has just been, I mean, it doesn't bother me, but from a lot of

298
00:24:10,111 --> 00:24:14,231
people's perspective, it's struggling. We're not breaking out. We're not having the all-time highs

299
00:24:14,231 --> 00:24:19,931
everyone expected. We're not at a million dollars, no omega candle. To me, I think this looks like a

300
00:24:19,931 --> 00:24:24,451
huge opportunity. First of all, to solo mine. When hash rate drops, you actually have a chance

301
00:24:24,451 --> 00:24:28,252
of maybe finding a block. I think we're going to see a lot of bid access flying off the shelf for

302
00:24:28,252 --> 00:24:33,391
anyone who's paying attention. But also, obviously, an opportunity to stack some cheap sats.

303
00:24:34,691 --> 00:24:39,231
Sophie, what's your take on this? By the way, are you like solo mining? Do you have a home

304
00:24:39,231 --> 00:24:47,371
miner or anything? Not anymore. Oh, no. Tony's going to get all over you on this.

305
00:24:47,371 --> 00:24:53,752
Well, maybe, maybe, maybe Nico does. I don't know. Like, to be honest, maybe he does. And I just don't know about it.

306
00:24:54,631 --> 00:24:55,391
That's funny.

307
00:24:56,552 --> 00:24:57,351
To be honest.

308
00:24:57,591 --> 00:25:02,331
We're going to have to give you a few of Nico's non-QIC stack.

309
00:25:03,552 --> 00:25:08,572
I don't know. Yeah, he probably does. Like, to be honest, because Nico got his start in mining.

310
00:25:09,792 --> 00:25:16,151
And I like, I remember that whole situation. And man, it's an adventure.

311
00:25:16,151 --> 00:25:27,471
If you're not into Bitcoin, but you're into hardware and technology and you want to go down a really fun adventure, start mining at your house.

312
00:25:28,951 --> 00:25:34,731
And, you know, that'll definitely orange pill you in ways that you never even imagined.

313
00:25:34,731 --> 00:25:55,292
And especially now, if it's if the hash rate, if the mining difficulty is is down, you know, what better time to actually start mining, even if it is at your house, even if it like you could do like a fun project with your kids and set it up and, you know, teach them about Bitcoin.

314
00:25:55,292 --> 00:26:02,231
And hey, what better lesson if, you know, they actually end up mining some Bitcoin?

315
00:26:02,451 --> 00:26:10,292
That would be like, could you imagine like them telling all their friends at school or, you know, I guess their brothers and sisters if they're homeschooled?

316
00:26:10,292 --> 00:26:12,431
It's not zero, man. There's been a lot of stories.

317
00:26:12,431 --> 00:26:13,471
It's not zero.

318
00:26:14,151 --> 00:26:16,812
Miners, you know, waking up to that blinking light.

319
00:26:17,492 --> 00:26:20,931
They're becoming a lot cheaper too, right? And a lot more plug and play.

320
00:26:21,012 --> 00:26:23,151
It's not as complicated as perhaps it used to be.

321
00:26:23,151 --> 00:26:28,831
But this long term, this news is very good for Bitcoin because it forces out all the inefficient miners.

322
00:26:29,072 --> 00:26:34,032
It forces, you know, upgrades and enhancements to the whole mining ecosystem.

323
00:26:34,671 --> 00:26:45,591
And of course, you know, at least, you know, for a short period of time, it improves the odds of everybody's solo mining to potentially wake up to, you know, Christmas present.

324
00:26:46,532 --> 00:26:52,312
But part of Satoshi's genius, man, you know, sometimes it goes up, sometimes it goes down.

325
00:26:52,312 --> 00:27:03,111
But usually when these things happen, those followings and number go up adventure will be very happy because usually there's like a price movement to the upside, you know, after such news.

326
00:27:04,072 --> 00:27:04,191
Yeah.

327
00:27:04,451 --> 00:27:06,272
Tony doesn't do cocaine.

328
00:27:06,391 --> 00:27:07,711
He buys miners every week.

329
00:27:07,792 --> 00:27:09,151
That's his addiction of choice.

330
00:27:09,471 --> 00:27:10,631
He just like keeps on.

331
00:27:10,772 --> 00:27:12,252
He tests every product.

332
00:27:12,252 --> 00:27:19,752
Dude, you probably have enough hash rate at this point just sitting in your home to be like a publicly traded miner or something.

333
00:27:19,752 --> 00:27:25,651
showers that are powered by bitcoin swimming pools powered by bitcoin you've got massage

334
00:27:25,651 --> 00:27:31,411
chairs powered by bitcoin everything you know i think i think what would really sell at least for

335
00:27:31,411 --> 00:27:42,671
me is a sauna powered by bitcoin or an infrared sauna need it need it somebody's probably done it

336
00:27:42,671 --> 00:27:48,391
somewhere yeah absolutely all right guys get yourself a bit axe find yourself a solo miner

337
00:27:48,391 --> 00:28:00,737
and get going Up next to the economy we talk about this a little bit every episode So Google searches for help with mortgage have soared to the highest level in history surpassing even the peak of the global financial crisis

338
00:28:00,897 --> 00:28:05,597
And yet, if you ask the powers that be, how the economy is doing, it's pretty good.

339
00:28:05,797 --> 00:28:09,157
Nothing to be, we're not in crisis mode, nothing to be too concerned about.

340
00:28:09,617 --> 00:28:14,577
Sounds to me like Main Street is telling a very different story simply by virtue of what

341
00:28:14,577 --> 00:28:15,697
they are searching.

342
00:28:16,817 --> 00:28:19,017
Either of you, any comments on this?

343
00:28:19,017 --> 00:28:32,637
Well, if you hear the news, they'll tell you everything is fine because you can go live in a tent, man. What's the problem? Why are you complaining? There's some very nice quality tents, you know, with like insulation and all that stuff. What do you need a house for? You know, like just figure it out.

344
00:28:32,637 --> 00:28:43,017
no it's you know here here in miami uh a lot of tech bros are moving over and we consistently have

345
00:28:43,017 --> 00:28:50,537
been getting knocks on the door not even calls not mail knocks on the door from real estate brokers

346
00:28:50,537 --> 00:28:58,937
saying hey do you want to sell your house crazy and what i'm thinking is going on is you know

347
00:28:58,937 --> 00:29:04,737
people are getting bought out people are gonna end up getting bought out by these monsters like

348
00:29:04,737 --> 00:29:11,437
the same people who are in charge of the money the same people who are you know coming here from

349
00:29:11,437 --> 00:29:18,837
palantir they're trying to buy out people from their homes and you know before like this

350
00:29:18,837 --> 00:29:25,977
gentrification thing used to happen in you know uh lower income areas but now it seems like it's

351
00:29:25,977 --> 00:29:34,057
happening everywhere. And so you like, I think that's why people might be asking like, you know,

352
00:29:34,057 --> 00:29:38,897
help with mortgage. Cause if you default on one of your payments or if you miss one or whatever,

353
00:29:38,897 --> 00:29:44,757
like, you know, you might be in trouble. You might, you might get bought out even easier

354
00:29:44,757 --> 00:29:49,617
than before. The thing is, if you sell your house, where are you going to go? Well, the next house

355
00:29:49,617 --> 00:29:54,017
you buy is going to probably be more expensive. It's not like that's the problem. That's the

356
00:29:54,017 --> 00:30:01,657
And if you're renting and the owner decides to sell, where are you going to go?

357
00:30:02,057 --> 00:30:02,237
Yeah.

358
00:30:03,257 --> 00:30:03,477
Yeah.

359
00:30:04,677 --> 00:30:09,917
I think the next year, couple of years are going to be an absolute mess in real estate.

360
00:30:10,417 --> 00:30:13,857
Sophie, the one thing I would encourage you to do next time you have a knock at the door,

361
00:30:13,957 --> 00:30:18,817
ask them if they're representing BlackRock or one of the big tech bros who are moving to town.

362
00:30:18,817 --> 00:30:20,557
Yeah, have a surprise survey.

363
00:30:20,557 --> 00:30:28,497
Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if they know the printers come in and we're going to see just massive inflation and house prices.

364
00:30:28,637 --> 00:30:30,917
And it's all funny, but really not funny.

365
00:30:31,037 --> 00:30:31,817
It's really horrific.

366
00:30:32,597 --> 00:30:33,477
No, it's horrible.

367
00:30:33,837 --> 00:30:43,937
And people's lives will get destroyed from this because moving and being displaced and going through all of that is not a fun thing to go through.

368
00:30:43,937 --> 00:30:56,897
Well, the thing is, historically, when you pile on a lot of this bad news, like the mortgages, and then people can't afford food, and then people can't afford to pay for medical bills and what have you, this turns very ugly very quickly, man.

369
00:30:57,637 --> 00:30:59,697
This is something I've been talking about forever.

370
00:30:59,877 --> 00:31:03,037
I mean, don't think there's like an easy way out of this.

371
00:31:03,177 --> 00:31:04,897
This usually ends up very violent.

372
00:31:05,437 --> 00:31:10,977
There's no other way history has shown of something like this ending in any other way.

373
00:31:10,977 --> 00:31:22,157
So the best thing you can do is, at least if you're in a position to protect yourself now, just get out of the way. Get off that chessboard and solve saving in something that is not going down in flames.

374
00:31:23,377 --> 00:31:30,437
Yeah, absolutely. All righty, guys, we got to end with a bit of good news because we talked a lot about war and now real estate prices.

375
00:31:30,437 --> 00:31:37,837
So OSHA Rewards shared this. We analyzed 50,000 shoppers and 100,000 plus orders across our

376
00:31:37,837 --> 00:31:43,317
merchants network. Bitcoin customers are nearly three times more valuable than the average

377
00:31:43,317 --> 00:31:47,497
customer, not because they pay with Bitcoin, but because of who they are. And then it's a cool

378
00:31:47,497 --> 00:31:54,377
thread. They go through 38% more on their first purchase. The lifetime gap, value gap is massive.

379
00:31:54,377 --> 00:32:00,277
Bitcoin customers are about almost $500 average lifetime value. Other customers only $164.

380
00:32:00,437 --> 00:32:05,677
So this is to me, the cool thing about this is this is the cheat code that people are talking about.

381
00:32:05,777 --> 00:32:11,837
If you choose to adopt Bitcoin early as a business, I think you are going to disproportionately benefit.

382
00:32:12,037 --> 00:32:13,157
We see this with Steak and Shake.

383
00:32:13,557 --> 00:32:25,237
There are guys like Ben Justman selling his wine from Peony Lane on X who seem to be having incredible success because Bitcoiners are loyal to people who will accept their money.

384
00:32:25,837 --> 00:32:28,457
I'll let either of you weigh in on this.

385
00:32:28,457 --> 00:32:29,437
Soph, what do you think?

386
00:32:29,437 --> 00:32:49,057
Well, as a professional consumer, I can tell you that Bitcoiners are extremely picky people. And because we are very picky, because we don't want to spend our Bitcoin, we're very careful who we give our Bitcoin to.

387
00:32:49,057 --> 00:33:08,497
And when we earn in Bitcoin, likewise, we are looking for the highest quality and we're looking to do our best. And that is one of the things that Bitcoin incentivizes is just like you need to like do your best because you are competing for other people's, you know, Bitcoin.

388
00:33:08,497 --> 00:33:22,657
And so this doesn't surprise me at all whatsoever. Of course, they're going to be loyal because the products are good. Of course, they're going to be loyal because they'd rather spend in Bitcoin and not have to deal with fiat.

389
00:33:22,657 --> 00:33:36,457
Of course, they're going to have better products because they're not going to contribute to the same cheap system that, you know, offers convenience, but then will kill you at the end of the day.

390
00:33:37,017 --> 00:33:39,657
So this doesn't surprise me at all.

391
00:33:39,657 --> 00:33:49,857
I think that, you know, this should be shouted from the rooftops to all entrepreneurs and consumers alike so that they check this out.

392
00:33:49,857 --> 00:33:56,637
You know, you don't have to live in the cheap, short term fiat mentality as a consumer.

393
00:33:56,797 --> 00:34:03,057
You can actually buy things that will last you a lifetime, A, and won't kill you, B.

394
00:34:03,637 --> 00:34:07,717
So, you know, this is great that they did this research.

395
00:34:07,917 --> 00:34:14,517
And I hope that other companies see it and adopt it for themselves.

396
00:34:15,177 --> 00:34:16,237
Yeah, you're spot on, man.

397
00:34:16,237 --> 00:34:32,857
And Bitcoiners are extremely picky and they're well-researched and well-educated and they've got their eyes wide open, which is why, you know, businesses that adopt Bitcoin as payments, I mean, they unlock a market they would have never had access to had they not done this.

398
00:34:33,037 --> 00:34:38,037
And so the time to, you know, get your foot in the door early is still here.

399
00:34:38,457 --> 00:34:43,697
But I think that door is going to shut down like very quickly once more people clue into this.

400
00:34:43,697 --> 00:34:47,897
I work with Bitcoiners all day long, every single day.

401
00:34:48,037 --> 00:34:51,317
I know the caliber of human beings that we're talking about.

402
00:34:51,457 --> 00:34:56,737
These are the best of the best of individuals that are out there in almost every regards.

403
00:34:57,417 --> 00:35:03,317
And so it's not surprising to me that these statistics are reporting what they write here.

404
00:35:03,817 --> 00:35:05,557
Bitcoiners are a different breed, man.

405
00:35:05,557 --> 00:35:07,537
This is the new elite going forward.

406
00:35:08,597 --> 00:35:09,297
I agree.

407
00:35:09,577 --> 00:35:11,577
Guys, I think that's a good place to wrap up.

408
00:35:11,657 --> 00:35:12,597
Make sure that you're out there.

409
00:35:12,597 --> 00:35:19,597
If you're a Bitcoin or listening to this, which I assume most of you are, make sure you're supporting your businesses by paying in Bitcoin whenever you possibly can.

410
00:35:19,677 --> 00:35:21,257
We need it to be a medium of exchange.

411
00:35:21,977 --> 00:35:24,457
Tony and Sophie, thank you guys for taking some time.

412
00:35:24,537 --> 00:35:26,077
For everyone who tuned in, we appreciate it.

413
00:35:26,117 --> 00:35:27,357
You can stick around for another minute.

414
00:35:27,497 --> 00:35:32,737
Learn about how the Bitcoin way can help you take self-custody, do a lot of the other self-sovereign things that you should be doing.

415
00:35:33,297 --> 00:35:35,117
And again, we appreciate you being here.

416
00:35:35,357 --> 00:35:37,097
Tony, Sophie, you guys take care.

417
00:35:37,157 --> 00:35:37,937
We'll talk again soon.

418
00:35:38,097 --> 00:35:38,597
Thanks, guys.

419
00:35:38,717 --> 00:35:39,377
See you next time.

420
00:35:39,417 --> 00:35:40,017
Thank you.

While you're at it, ask about our solo mining service, something we think everybody should

428
00:36:14,317 --> 00:36:15,317
be doing.

432
00:36:28,237 --> 00:36:29,557
you use every day.

433
00:36:29,557 --> 00:36:33,357

Being untethered from a single location is one of the best ways to ensure your self-sovereignty

437
00:36:43,577 --> 00:36:44,417
into the future.

438
00:36:44,877 --> 00:36:49,637
