1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,720
Power shifts dynamically, but the most powerful node on the Proof of Weapons Network currently today is BlackRock.

2
00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:12,120
They tried to eliminate the word Bitcoin and replace it with blockchain.

3
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:20,580
Under the Biden administration, I think the US decided that they wanted to co-opt the network, and this time isn't to take it down.

4
00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:29,120
It is to try and get your Bitcoin and hold it through Wall Street.

5
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,000
rather than you owning it direct in self-custody.

6
00:00:34,420 --> 00:00:35,460
I've been in Bitcoin.

7
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,360
I spoke at the first Bitcoin conference in 2011.

8
00:00:39,020 --> 00:00:42,740
I want to focus in on BlackRock specifically because I think

9
00:00:42,740 --> 00:00:47,480
when a company becomes as big a strategy and has 650,000 Bitcoin,

10
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:51,920
it eventually reaches a market cap where it's included in the S&P 500.

11
00:00:54,300 --> 00:00:56,840
Once it's included in the S&P 500,

12
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,760
it has access to all the index funds managed by BlackRock.

13
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:05,680
And so BlackRock will accumulate the largest shareholding eventually in strategy.

14
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,480
The only way to combat the Fed is to own your Bitcoin.

15
00:01:11,700 --> 00:01:15,700
The only way to combat BlackRock is to own it in self-custody rather than an ETF.

16
00:01:16,160 --> 00:01:19,720
The only way to combat the banks is to not borrow against your Bitcoin.

17
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:26,140
I want as many people to understand that there is a huge benefit in self-custody.

18
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,080
And if any of these institutions want to steal your Bitcoin,

19
00:01:30,660 --> 00:01:34,660
they will use leverage and they want you to level them up

20
00:01:34,660 --> 00:01:36,960
so that you subsidize the cheap debt

21
00:01:36,960 --> 00:01:40,600
and they can create paper Bitcoin obligations and IOUs.

22
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,780
so you get notified every time I drop a video.

23
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:02,720
All right, now let's get back into this great interview.

24
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:05,220
Bing bong.

25
00:02:05,340 --> 00:02:08,900
I am back with another edition of the State of Bitcoin podcast

26
00:02:08,900 --> 00:02:12,520
where I've got the man, the myth, the legend, Simon Dixon in the house

27
00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,320
who's been making waves here lately.

28
00:02:14,900 --> 00:02:16,900
And we're going to get into a lot of things today,

29
00:02:17,060 --> 00:02:20,880
especially the banking industry doing a little bit of a flip into Bitcoin,

30
00:02:21,300 --> 00:02:22,720
the proof of weapons networks.

31
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:39,420
But Simon, I really want to start with your theory of BlackRock potentially taking over the Bitcoin space and how they're basically flipping on its head and getting the full financial industry into Bitcoin and trying to quote unquote financialize Bitcoin.

32
00:02:39,980 --> 00:02:49,040
So I'm curious, explain your theory on BlackRock and how they could be potentially trying to take over this whole Bitcoin space.

33
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:56,300
yeah sure um so look i i've been i've been in bitcoin i spoke at the first bitcoin conference

34
00:02:56,300 --> 00:03:03,740
in 2011 um and in 2011 it was us versus the banks and we were creating money you can own

35
00:03:03,740 --> 00:03:08,880
money that you can spend and money that has a fixed supply that would allow everyone to be

36
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:15,180
inflation um and escape the network boycott the network as it were so it was a it was a bottom-up

37
00:03:15,180 --> 00:03:23,880
movement. It was cypherpunks focused on, you know, privacy and activists that were focused on

38
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:32,060
how to process transactions without the banks. You know, now, because Bitcoin has a fixed supply,

39
00:03:32,660 --> 00:03:37,640
it obviously became the highest performing asset in history during those 14 years. And,

40
00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:42,700
you know, when I was when I first got involved, the price of Bitcoin crashed from $30 to $3.

41
00:03:42,700 --> 00:03:46,240
and we had like a 90% correction there.

42
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,800
And really we went through this whole journey of adoption,

43
00:03:50,020 --> 00:03:53,480
which is the, you know, first they just kind of laughed at it.

44
00:03:54,140 --> 00:03:55,700
They didn't take it seriously.

45
00:03:55,700 --> 00:03:59,040
Then it started being used on some of the illicit markets.

46
00:03:59,620 --> 00:04:02,640
So then they started to try and tarnish its reputation.

47
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:07,680
And then over time they tried to create alternative versions.

48
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:11,320
They tried to eliminate the word Bitcoin and replace it with blockchain.

49
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:18,900
and then eventually they executed what I consider to be a covert operation called,

50
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:23,000
you know, others, Nick Carter famously called it Operation Chokepoint 2.0.

51
00:04:23,620 --> 00:04:29,820
But under the Biden administration, I think the US decided that they wanted to co-opt the network

52
00:04:29,820 --> 00:04:33,760
and try and get as much Bitcoin as possible.

53
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,100
And they did a multi-layer attack.

54
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,340
Now, let me be crystal clear.

55
00:04:40,340 --> 00:04:45,600
in my entire time in Bitcoin, we have been fighting attacks throughout the whole time.

56
00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,480
And we always win. It's an anti-fragile network.

57
00:04:48,840 --> 00:04:53,620
But we have to bring attention to things as they become clear.

58
00:04:54,340 --> 00:04:57,680
And so we've always, you know, we're at a stage right now where,

59
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:02,900
you know, Bitcoin doesn't really need like the positive PR, as it were,

60
00:05:03,380 --> 00:05:05,800
because Bitcoin has taken its own trajectory.

61
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:12,860
However, there is definitely what I consider to be financial weapons of mass destruction

62
00:05:12,860 --> 00:05:14,060
fired at Bitcoin.

63
00:05:14,740 --> 00:05:16,640
And this time isn't to take it down.

64
00:05:17,020 --> 00:05:22,780
It is to try and get your Bitcoin and hold it through Wall Street rather than you owning

65
00:05:22,780 --> 00:05:24,380
it direct in self-custody.

66
00:05:25,660 --> 00:05:28,500
And that is happening on multi fronts.

67
00:05:29,220 --> 00:05:33,480
And so we can dig deeper into some of the financial weapons of mass destruction.

68
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:44,520
But in my overarching theory, you know, because Bitcoin created proof of work, which gave you the ability to own your own Bitcoin and hold it in self-custody.

69
00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:45,780
Excuse me.

70
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:52,560
Because before I got involved in Bitcoin, I was involved in banking and monetary reform.

71
00:05:52,560 --> 00:06:03,340
I call it a proof of weapons network and it uses multiple weapons in order to try and get as much Bitcoin under its control as possible.

72
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,980
so that it can empower itself, the network.

73
00:06:07,780 --> 00:06:09,800
So where would you like me to start?

74
00:06:10,500 --> 00:06:13,140
Yeah, I mean, there's a lot to definitely chew off there,

75
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,500
but I want to get into the Wall Street's attack, right?

76
00:06:16,660 --> 00:06:20,640
The, you know, you described it as the weapons of mass destruction

77
00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,020
essentially coming at Bitcoin here.

78
00:06:23,020 --> 00:06:26,780
And I want to focus in on BlackRock specifically

79
00:06:26,780 --> 00:06:30,200
because I think, you know, there's something I want to come back to

80
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,060
about your two-tiered approach here in a minute.

81
00:06:32,060 --> 00:06:36,460
But I think BlackRock plays a major entity in all of this.

82
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:46,160
And what I think is very interesting is that, you know, since these ETFs have come on, I think a lot of Bitcoiners, you know, I've seen the massive amounts of buying.

83
00:06:46,420 --> 00:06:48,380
Of course, you know, Bitcoin is going to win in the end.

84
00:06:48,660 --> 00:06:55,080
But ETFs overall have one and a half million Bitcoin under their custody as it stands right now.

85
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:58,560
And BlackRock's ETF has nearly a million coins itself.

86
00:06:58,560 --> 00:07:10,980
So I'm curious your role in theory of just BlackRock specifically, and then if you could expand out on the true financial markets of the other weapons of mass destruction that you see.

87
00:07:10,980 --> 00:07:18,160
yeah sure so um the right way to think about this is um every empire particularly in the west in the

88
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:26,040
western empires um they've always had like a private interest which represents the majority

89
00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:33,560
of control over resources and financialization and so under the the if we look at the last two

90
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:38,660
empires you had the dutch empire you know which kind of created central banking and capitalism as

91
00:07:38,660 --> 00:07:44,980
we know it today and created the Dutch East India Company to take advantage of its shipmaking in

92
00:07:44,980 --> 00:07:51,140
order to use mercantilism and gain access to commodities, gold and various other commodities.

93
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:57,580
Then they outsourced the shipmaking to the cheap labor, which was the Brits. And then the Brits

94
00:07:57,580 --> 00:08:01,740
copied much of the infrastructure, Bank of England, capitalism, as we know it today,

95
00:08:02,340 --> 00:08:08,640
and created the British East India Company and used the British East India Company in shipmaking

96
00:08:08,660 --> 00:08:17,400
in order to do colonial expeditions to steal as much gold and silver and real commodities as possible to back its currency.

97
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:23,040
Now, with the American empire, we have a neo version of that.

98
00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:28,080
It is not one organization. It is a network, as I said, a proof of weapons network.

99
00:08:28,700 --> 00:08:30,600
But power shifts dynamically.

100
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:35,480
But the most powerful node on the proof of weapons network currently today is BlackRock.

101
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:40,900
It is measured by both technology and how many assets it's managing.

102
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:46,320
And so BlackRock is currently managing about $12 trillion of assets.

103
00:08:46,620 --> 00:08:55,100
And by owning those shares and access to passive pension money, insurance premiums, endowment

104
00:08:55,100 --> 00:09:02,440
investments, and all the access to capital flows, it gets regular income in order to

105
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:08,760
purchase assets on behalf of its investors. But with those assets, it gets voting rights and board

106
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:14,680
seats in those companies. And so essentially, you have this network, this one organization

107
00:09:14,680 --> 00:09:21,940
that has $12 trillion of assets under management. And it also has technology that pulls together

108
00:09:21,940 --> 00:09:27,840
all the vast data that only BlackRock has access to. And so you have Aladdin AI technology,

109
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:36,380
which all of the money managers in the world use, as well as treasury when managing fiscal budgets,

110
00:09:36,540 --> 00:09:40,060
as well as the Federal Reserve when managing its bailouts.

111
00:09:40,060 --> 00:09:45,820
And so you've got this one organization that has influence over all the vast other money managers,

112
00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:52,260
its own money management, treasury budgets, and monetary policy as well.

113
00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,460
So it has consolidated significant power.

114
00:09:55,460 --> 00:10:01,240
It has shares in over 20,000 companies, and it installs its own boards and voting rights.

115
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,1000
And so BlackRock is kind of the CEO of this network.

116
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:12,940
There are other nodes like State Street, Vanguard, and then JP Morgan for financialization and securitization, various other things.

117
00:10:13,620 --> 00:10:18,600
Now, what it does is it manages its portfolio to prepare for any eventuality.

118
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:27,260
I personally believe that it is managing a transition to weaken the dollar and transition to a multipolar world.

119
00:10:27,260 --> 00:10:52,020
And as part of that, many of the central banks are accumulating gold, pushing it to record highs. And also it exerted a mission in order to take over aspects of the Bitcoin ecosystem, build a centralized Bitcoin industrial complex, like it has a financial industrial complex, and gain as much control over as many of the aspects of Bitcoin.

120
00:10:52,020 --> 00:11:06,660
It doesn't really care about crypto. It will do some Ethereum staking. That one's really easy because proof of stake means by owning the token is like a share of voting right. You get control in the governance. But Bitcoin is a lot harder because it's proof of work.

121
00:11:06,660 --> 00:11:21,840
And so they are engineering, I believe, a strategy to centralize as much Bitcoin and control shares in as many of the companies that can centralize Bitcoin and many of the miners in America.

122
00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:28,980
So the multi-financial weapons of mass destruction that it's constructing is Bitcoin treasury companies.

123
00:11:28,980 --> 00:11:39,540
So when a company becomes as big a strategy and has 650,000 Bitcoin, it eventually reaches a market cap where it's included in the S&P 500.

124
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:46,440
Once it's included in the S&P 500, it has access to all the index funds managed by BlackRock.

125
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:52,720
And so BlackRock will accumulate the largest shareholding eventually in strategy.

126
00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:57,200
and then it will be able to put in its board

127
00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:00,220
and it will be able to exert influence

128
00:12:00,220 --> 00:12:04,620
to potentially get all of the different debt products,

129
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,800
which are other companies in the network,

130
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:11,060
to lend a strategy, lever it up,

131
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:12,900
and then turn it into a bank

132
00:12:12,900 --> 00:12:14,900
so that people can borrow against their Bitcoin.

133
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:18,220
So other nodes in the network are like Cantor Fitzgerald.

134
00:12:18,700 --> 00:12:20,740
Cantor Fitzgerald is a primary dealer.

135
00:12:20,740 --> 00:12:25,240
It has access to the Federal Reserve quantitative easing budgets.

136
00:12:25,980 --> 00:12:30,640
It is also a buyer of last resort for bonds.

137
00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:37,660
It has now become the primary custodian for stablecoins and tethers treasuries.

138
00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:45,860
And so through this mechanism, tethers holds its, you know, buys treasuries every time it issues a stablecoin.

139
00:12:45,860 --> 00:12:48,480
and then the yield buys Bitcoin.

140
00:12:48,740 --> 00:12:51,880
And then it also invests in the Bitcoin mining industry.

141
00:12:52,220 --> 00:12:56,440
It also has the companies that, you know,

142
00:12:56,500 --> 00:12:59,200
US persuaded to mine in Texas.

143
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,720
So we used to have a China centralization problem,

144
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,720
but then we moved to an America centralization problem.

145
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:08,860
And so when China decided to crack down on Bitcoin,

146
00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,560
they had approximately 60% of the hash power in China.

147
00:13:12,560 --> 00:13:16,920
and then that moved over to 20% in China, 40% in America.

148
00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:22,340
And much of that ended up with these companies that are now going public.

149
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:26,040
And so we've now got multiple public companies

150
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:31,560
that are essentially mining Bitcoin and putting it on their balance sheet

151
00:13:31,560 --> 00:13:37,360
and also borrowing from Wall Street and borrowing against their stock price.

152
00:13:38,100 --> 00:13:40,340
So when you have all these public companies

153
00:13:40,340 --> 00:13:44,220
and they have to borrow against their stock price,

154
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:47,900
you create the ability for the Fed and all the different networks

155
00:13:47,900 --> 00:13:52,080
at some point to try and get people to lever their Bitcoin as well.

156
00:13:52,680 --> 00:13:56,100
And so JP Morgan, another node in the network, comes along and says,

157
00:13:56,640 --> 00:13:59,480
hey, why don't you borrow against your Bitcoin ETF?

158
00:14:00,260 --> 00:14:05,760
Give me your Bitcoin or rather than buy Bitcoin, buy our ETF

159
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,840
and then you can borrow against it and we'll mine some dollars

160
00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:14,340
through the banking system in order to give you some dollar access.

161
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:16,960
Now you are a debt slave.

162
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:20,780
When you start taking leverage tied to equity and collateral,

163
00:14:21,480 --> 00:14:24,300
this is the perfect type of game that the Federal Reserve,

164
00:14:24,460 --> 00:14:27,640
the Proof of Weapons Network, the banks, the financial institutions,

165
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,320
let's call it the financial industrial complex,

166
00:14:30,460 --> 00:14:34,660
uses in order to create prompt and dump schemes through their hedge funds.

167
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:51,221
And then they use their own mutual funds in order to gain exposure So what they are doing right now is because they can control the long term price of Bitcoin because it a digital scarce asset they going to be pushing out derivatives as well

168
00:14:51,661 --> 00:14:55,081
So then they have other nodes in the network that say, let's create options.

169
00:14:55,441 --> 00:14:56,401
Let's create futures.

170
00:14:56,761 --> 00:14:58,181
Let's create perpetual futures.

171
00:14:58,321 --> 00:14:59,881
Let's create 100x leverage.

172
00:14:59,881 --> 00:15:20,161
And so when you combine all of these forces together, as well as the Trump administration, regulatory capture, an environment of deregulation, which we're seeing right now, you basically have all the tools to try and get as many margin calls, centralize as much Bitcoin as possible, get board seats on many of the mining companies.

173
00:15:20,161 --> 00:15:24,281
And we as Bitcoiners need to resist against it.

174
00:15:25,021 --> 00:15:28,681
And as I said, it's an attack vector that we will win,

175
00:15:29,321 --> 00:15:32,241
but we win through what Bitcoin was designed for,

176
00:15:32,621 --> 00:15:36,121
not falling for the strategies, not levering up our Bitcoin,

177
00:15:36,721 --> 00:15:40,421
not buying a Bitcoin ETF instead of buying Bitcoin directly,

178
00:15:40,941 --> 00:15:43,081
not borrowing against our Bitcoin.

179
00:15:43,301 --> 00:15:47,741
Leverage is the tool and Bitcoin is the boycott.

180
00:15:47,741 --> 00:16:16,921
So we combat the proof of weapons network through proof of work. And far too many in America are falling for it because the financial industrial complex is being built in America. And so we need to be aware of this attack vector. And we need to understand that as this gift of Bitcoin was given to us to boycott the system, have our own money, spend our own money, and beat all of the Wall Street mutual funds, all of the products that they create, Bitcoin has outperformed them all.

181
00:16:16,921 --> 00:16:23,541
That allows us to escape the network, build wealth, and then use that wealth in order to boycott the network.

182
00:16:24,201 --> 00:16:28,861
And we need to do our part by owning it in self-custody, by running nodes.

183
00:16:29,461 --> 00:16:32,221
Last bull run, we had exchanges blow up.

184
00:16:32,421 --> 00:16:36,141
You saw FTX, Celsius, BlockFi, you name it.

185
00:16:36,301 --> 00:16:40,461
But the true power of Bitcoin is getting it off an exchange into cold storage.

186
00:16:40,681 --> 00:16:42,701
This bull run, I'm trusting Trezor.

187
00:16:42,701 --> 00:16:53,461
The company that's been around for over a decade and they just had a brand new release of the best hardware wallet in the game, the Trezor Safe 7.

188
00:16:53,801 --> 00:16:56,641
It's got the first audible secure element.

189
00:16:57,161 --> 00:16:58,961
No other hardware wallet has this.

190
00:16:59,461 --> 00:17:07,821
On top of it, I travel a lot, so I need an easy way to connect my Bitcoin hardware wallet to my laptop, phone, what have you.

191
00:17:07,821 --> 00:17:13,461
Therefore, it is the easiest way and has the best connectivity to access your Bitcoin.

192
00:17:13,761 --> 00:17:15,921
This is truly how you become your own bank.

193
00:17:16,401 --> 00:17:19,081

get yourself a treasure save seven and get your bitcoin off exchanges in the easiest way possible

199
00:17:40,721 --> 00:17:47,501
all right enough from me let's get back to the show boycott the network and we need to do our

200
00:17:47,501 --> 00:17:55,201
part by owning it in self-custody by running nodes and if all of us don't if you know you know there

201
00:17:55,201 --> 00:18:01,241
is in in economics we have a concept called tragedy of the commons it simply means that you

202
00:18:01,241 --> 00:18:05,561
know if uh if everyone wants to use a road but there's no way of making money out of a road

203
00:18:05,561 --> 00:18:10,681
no one creates the road and so you have to rely upon someone to create the road and in this case

204
00:18:11,241 --> 00:18:18,521
we have to as bitcoiners make sure that we've got 71 of all bitcoin right now in self-custody

205
00:18:18,521 --> 00:18:23,801
and we need to be aware of that matrix and as that close as that matrix gets closer and closer

206
00:18:23,801 --> 00:18:29,561
to blackrock's goal we need to understand the attack vector and uh we need to prop up the

207
00:18:29,561 --> 00:18:35,561
network so i want as many people to understand that there is a huge benefit in self-custody

208
00:18:35,561 --> 00:18:41,161
that is the freedom that comes with it and if any of these institutions want to steal your bitcoin

209
00:18:41,161 --> 00:18:46,601
they will use leverage um and they want you to level them up so that they can control them they

210
00:18:46,601 --> 00:18:52,681
can use them and they can create paper bitcoin obligations and ious we've seen this before

211
00:18:52,681 --> 00:18:58,841
throughout the entire history you know the mount gox exchange never took down bitcoin but it took

212
00:18:58,841 --> 00:19:03,641
a lot of people's Bitcoin. Bitfinex hack never took down Bitcoin, but it took a lot of people's

213
00:19:03,641 --> 00:19:10,441
Bitcoin. The Quadrica CX hack or disappearance of the founders never took down Bitcoin, but it took

214
00:19:10,441 --> 00:19:16,921
a lot of people's Bitcoin. And so these centralized honeypots, we need to be aware of. And that's what

215
00:19:16,921 --> 00:19:22,681
the Proof of Weapons Network is building. Now, do you think that they're already, I guess,

216
00:19:22,681 --> 00:19:27,801
to a point where they can essentially control these different areas of Bitcoin? I mean, you mentioned

217
00:19:27,801 --> 00:19:32,521
a couple of the you know bitcoin miners right i mean there's a couple big publicly traded

218
00:19:32,521 --> 00:19:38,281
bitcoin mining companies already in the s p five are already uh publicly traded and then you know

219
00:19:38,281 --> 00:19:44,761
blackrock with their etf already having you know uh over a million coins and then on top of it they

220
00:19:44,761 --> 00:19:50,441
increased their stake in strategy you know earlier this year to i believe over five percent where

221
00:19:50,441 --> 00:19:55,801
they had to you know do a full filing for it and then you know once strategy gets in that s p 500

222
00:19:55,801 --> 00:20:02,161
here most likely in a month or maybe, you know, sometime early next year. It seems like that's

223
00:20:02,161 --> 00:20:08,741
inevitable. So I guess which areas or if is it all areas that BlackRock is essentially going to

224
00:20:08,741 --> 00:20:15,301
be able to control, whether it's the treasury companies or the mining or both? Yeah, I believe

225
00:20:15,301 --> 00:20:20,741
that they will attempt to get as much power as they possibly can. Now, control is a loaded word.

226
00:20:20,741 --> 00:20:23,821
Bitcoin is virtually impossible to control.

227
00:20:24,461 --> 00:20:26,701
We've seen every type of attack vector.

228
00:20:26,841 --> 00:20:27,881
We saw the block war.

229
00:20:28,481 --> 00:20:32,541
When the miners and the VCs and the companies colluded with the developers

230
00:20:32,541 --> 00:20:35,941
and they were in an internal struggle around what they wanted,

231
00:20:36,321 --> 00:20:39,561
the users had to fight back with the user-activated soft fork.

232
00:20:39,561 --> 00:20:42,541
So we needed to run nodes and then we needed to signal

233
00:20:42,541 --> 00:20:47,401
that we would be able to combat whatever the miners wanted.

234
00:20:47,401 --> 00:21:12,441
So this is a spectrum and there's never complete control because what is Bitcoin? It's open source code. So you have an attack vector there with the developers. Can you blackmail, co-opt, collude the developers? And that's why it's important to have these competing implementations. That kind of goes into some of the controversy that we've been experiencing as a community between NOTS and CORE.

235
00:21:12,441 --> 00:21:18,781
It's important to have these battles. These are all features, not bugs. The mining network,

236
00:21:18,921 --> 00:21:23,841
we have to combat with private mining, sovereign mining. It's important for countries that hate

237
00:21:23,841 --> 00:21:29,121
each other to mine. Right now, you've got Iran mining, Russia mining, China mining.

238
00:21:29,601 --> 00:21:35,361
America has the largest amount of hash power located in its country. But again, anything that

239
00:21:35,361 --> 00:21:41,561
goes public is Wall Street controlled. If you ever want to crash someone's share price, they have the

240
00:21:41,561 --> 00:21:48,381
ability to do it. And so they can push companies into chapter 11 if they choose. And they can,

241
00:21:48,461 --> 00:21:53,381
you know, they can co-opt all the founders by pushing them through their share price.

242
00:21:53,921 --> 00:21:59,661
And if they don't take on debt, which is their mechanism for control, then they push another

243
00:21:59,661 --> 00:22:04,621
company instead. So they have the ability to knock these public companies up and down.

244
00:22:05,621 --> 00:22:10,461
And, you know, Iron, for example, right now is working with Microsoft. They're changing some of

245
00:22:10,461 --> 00:22:16,441
their hash power to artificial intelligence. And so Microsoft and IREN are being good players to

246
00:22:16,441 --> 00:22:21,601
the proof of weapons network. So they get a 6x increase in their share price. Because remember,

247
00:22:22,061 --> 00:22:27,521
share has no reflection. There is no such concept of earnings per share anymore. It is just a

248
00:22:27,521 --> 00:22:32,541
function of the Federal Reserve. And who's the Federal Reserve shareholder? The banks.

249
00:22:33,081 --> 00:22:38,701
And so now all companies are priced not on their earnings, not on anything else,

250
00:22:38,701 --> 00:22:43,481
other than their geopolitical usefulness to the proof of weapons network.

251
00:22:43,781 --> 00:22:46,821
That's why you get Nvidia as a $5 trillion company.

252
00:22:47,441 --> 00:22:50,801
You know, you have these crazy, I mean, Palantir, like,

253
00:22:51,041 --> 00:22:56,761
valuations that have no concept of reality based upon government contracts

254
00:22:56,761 --> 00:23:00,361
that is trading at like 600 times earnings per share.

255
00:23:00,621 --> 00:23:03,381
None of the traditional mechanisms work anymore

256
00:23:03,381 --> 00:23:06,521
because the only way to have your share price pumped

257
00:23:06,521 --> 00:23:10,941
and to stay in the network is to bow down to the network.

258
00:23:11,061 --> 00:23:13,121
So it's geopolitical usefulness.

259
00:23:13,801 --> 00:23:15,581
And so I believe right now,

260
00:23:15,721 --> 00:23:20,121
because BlackRock wants to move to a multipolar world,

261
00:23:20,901 --> 00:23:23,821
Bitcoin is a negotiation and leverage tool

262
00:23:23,821 --> 00:23:26,041
against other jurisdictions they don't control,

263
00:23:26,621 --> 00:23:27,721
like China, Russia,

264
00:23:27,901 --> 00:23:29,621
some of the Middle Eastern countries as well.

265
00:23:30,061 --> 00:23:32,461
So it is becoming a currency war

266
00:23:32,461 --> 00:23:35,841
and a political tool at the geopolitical level.

267
00:23:35,841 --> 00:23:46,501
So the most important thing in this, and this is the exciting of the world we're using to, we're moving from the dollar being the global hegemon to multipolarity.

268
00:23:46,981 --> 00:23:51,001
And that is where Bitcoin was made for, you know, at the sovereign level as well.

269
00:23:51,281 --> 00:23:53,941
So does BlackRock have enough control right now?

270
00:23:54,341 --> 00:23:56,281
They are moving in the right direction.

271
00:23:56,561 --> 00:23:58,641
We need to be aware of the attack vector.

272
00:23:58,981 --> 00:24:02,401
But right now, they would need to co-opt all of the developers.

273
00:24:03,101 --> 00:24:05,281
They would need to fool all of the users.

274
00:24:05,841 --> 00:24:11,961
They would need to accumulate all of the Bitcoin within ETFs and they would need to own all the mining companies.

275
00:24:12,081 --> 00:24:17,001
They are miles away from that, but they are gaining more and more leverage.

276
00:24:17,221 --> 00:24:24,121
What does that give them? It gives them the ability to manipulate and influence in the direction they want to go.

277
00:24:24,701 --> 00:24:31,261
And then we need to be aware of the attack vectors so that we can plan our counterattack and we will win.

278
00:24:31,261 --> 00:24:33,441
they're not going to co-op Bitcoin

279
00:24:33,441 --> 00:24:35,821
but people just need to be aware

280
00:24:35,821 --> 00:24:37,101
of the attack vector

281
00:24:37,101 --> 00:24:39,781
and recognize that Bitcoin

282
00:24:39,781 --> 00:24:41,321
as the most decentralized

283
00:24:41,321 --> 00:24:42,861
supercomputer in the world

284
00:24:42,861 --> 00:24:45,161
we have to do our part

285
00:24:45,161 --> 00:24:46,441
for that but no

286
00:24:46,441 --> 00:24:48,581
they're nowhere near enough

287
00:24:48,581 --> 00:24:51,261
being able to control the network

288
00:24:51,261 --> 00:24:52,801
fork off the network

289
00:24:52,801 --> 00:24:55,661
destroy the network in any way shape or form

290
00:24:55,661 --> 00:24:57,501
but I bet you they're going to try

291
00:24:57,501 --> 00:24:59,541
do you think that they're

292
00:24:59,541 --> 00:25:04,601
I guess, far enough along in order to manipulate the Bitcoin price as it stands. Because I mean,

293
00:25:04,621 --> 00:25:09,381
if you look at the buying that's coming out, and you look at the amount of Bitcoin that is

294
00:25:09,381 --> 00:25:13,961
mined every single day, it seems like, you know, with these treasury companies and these people

295
00:25:13,961 --> 00:25:19,581
buying that Bitcoin should be taking off. And it normally does in October, November,

296
00:25:19,581 --> 00:25:24,561
this is the time, right? If you look at past cycles, but it seems like because Wall Street

297
00:25:24,561 --> 00:25:26,161
and BlackRock has been in.

298
00:25:27,121 --> 00:25:29,081
It's a little different this cycle.

299
00:25:29,241 --> 00:25:31,321
I know every cycle we say that as Bitcoiners,

300
00:25:31,481 --> 00:25:34,081
but are they manipulating the price in your opinion?

301
00:25:35,781 --> 00:25:39,141
So they won't directly be manipulating the price

302
00:25:39,141 --> 00:25:40,361
in the way that people think

303
00:25:40,361 --> 00:25:43,181
because BlackRock and those 800,000 Bitcoin

304
00:25:43,181 --> 00:25:46,701
are predominantly just ETFs held in custody at Coinbase.

305
00:25:47,361 --> 00:25:49,361
And Coinbase is another public company.

306
00:25:49,361 --> 00:25:53,201
So understanding that Coinbase doesn't do proof of reserve.

307
00:25:53,201 --> 00:26:19,621
But they do have public company disclosure. Is the regulatory environment sufficient enough right now to know whether they're utilizing those Bitcoin? Well, it's not just proof of reserves. It also is legal contracts that they can make on top. And so the problem with saying blockchain is the solution is it's not because you can have blockchain and then legal shenanigans off chain on top through legal agreements.

308
00:26:20,281 --> 00:26:22,101
And so while it helps, it certainly helps.

309
00:26:22,181 --> 00:26:23,661
You can see whether the Bitcoin are moving.

310
00:26:24,261 --> 00:26:29,581
You don't know whether they're actually engaging in a lending agreement like MF Global did.

311
00:26:29,681 --> 00:26:34,581
Everyone thought they had their commodities, but then they were engaging in creating additional

312
00:26:34,581 --> 00:26:35,881
commodities that didn't exist.

313
00:26:36,541 --> 00:26:41,761
And then farmers were wrecked in the agriculture industry because they were relying upon those

314
00:26:41,761 --> 00:26:42,181
hedges.

315
00:26:42,801 --> 00:26:46,501
So do I believe that BlackRock is manipulating the price?

316
00:26:46,501 --> 00:26:53,141
I believe that the financial industrial complex is trying to accumulate as much Bitcoin as possible.

317
00:26:53,681 --> 00:26:55,041
And they would like your Bitcoin.

318
00:26:55,401 --> 00:27:05,681
And by levering up, I believe that influential hedge fund managers and various other covert currency wars are certainly being waged on Bitcoin.

319
00:27:05,861 --> 00:27:07,221
You won't know who the players are.

320
00:27:07,761 --> 00:27:11,121
You know that there's a little bit of plausible deniability there.

321
00:27:11,161 --> 00:27:12,861
And that's how they normally do these things.

322
00:27:12,861 --> 00:27:17,001
You know, they'll take a hedge fund and they'll do it via that.

323
00:27:17,241 --> 00:27:21,201
I mean, I think Cantor Fitzgerald is an important player in the network.

324
00:27:21,861 --> 00:27:31,021
I think, you know, and the problem is, is that many of these Bitcoin treasury companies are going into bed with SoftBank, Cantor Fitzgerald.

325
00:27:31,021 --> 00:27:46,681
Even Cypherpunk developers, Adam Back mentioned in the white paper, he's creating like these financial weapons of mass destruction, converting 30,000 Bitcoin into one of these vehicles, which means that he's going to end up working for Wall Street too.

326
00:27:47,141 --> 00:27:49,201
So we just need to be aware of these things.

327
00:27:49,301 --> 00:27:51,421
But is the price being manipulated?

328
00:27:52,141 --> 00:27:56,261
I believe short term, the price has always been manipulated.

329
00:27:56,821 --> 00:27:59,361
It used to be done by exchanges and market makers.

330
00:27:59,361 --> 00:28:02,281
Now it's being done by more sophisticated players.

331
00:28:03,001 --> 00:28:05,521
And that has never stopped and will never stop.

332
00:28:06,061 --> 00:28:14,121
Market short term will be manipulated in order to, and the insiders, you know, I used to be a market maker on the London Stock Exchange.

333
00:28:14,121 --> 00:28:15,661
I left in about 2006.

334
00:28:16,361 --> 00:28:22,261
But our job was to manipulate markets to go the opposite of what the majority of people are doing.

335
00:28:22,261 --> 00:28:25,041
and it's the 5% or 1% of insiders

336
00:28:25,041 --> 00:28:28,141
that make all the money at the expense of the 95%

337
00:28:28,141 --> 00:28:31,661
that think they're going to be looking at candlestick charts

338
00:28:31,661 --> 00:28:33,461
and figure out how to beat the market.

339
00:28:34,361 --> 00:28:35,721
That's not how trading works.

340
00:28:35,881 --> 00:28:37,501
It is the insiders always win

341
00:28:37,501 --> 00:28:39,761
and they always accumulate more and more.

342
00:28:39,841 --> 00:28:40,581
They did it with gold.

343
00:28:40,901 --> 00:28:41,921
They'll do it with Bitcoin.

344
00:28:42,601 --> 00:28:45,861
And so they will always be able to manipulate short-term price.

345
00:28:45,861 --> 00:28:49,701
So your job is to hack it by being a long-term investor.

346
00:28:50,021 --> 00:28:52,021
If you try and short-term trade,

347
00:28:52,261 --> 00:28:57,661
you'll lose. They'll take your Bitcoin. If you're a long-term investor, allow them to manipulate,

348
00:28:57,901 --> 00:29:03,421
buy cheaper when they do, and you're fine. You'll be good. Yeah, exactly. Right. I mean,

349
00:29:03,421 --> 00:29:08,401
that's always the winning strategy. But you said a lot of interesting things there. I want to get

350
00:29:08,401 --> 00:29:12,141
into Cantor Fitzgerald and the potential connection with Tether in a little bit,

351
00:29:12,141 --> 00:29:17,461
because I think that's very interesting. But I want to dive into more of banks, because I think

352
00:29:17,461 --> 00:29:32,803
that you know seeing with JP Morgan that you mentioned earlier seeing Jamie Dimon essentially flip and be like ah I was wrong about Bitcoin like less than a month ago now is is really interesting to see his turn and then the the lending on bitcoin that now jp morgan

353
00:29:32,803 --> 00:29:38,002
offers but i think that another little wrinkle here that not a lot of people talk about is that

354
00:29:38,002 --> 00:29:43,283
coinbase and circle one of the biggest uh you know stablecoin issuers in the united states just had

355
00:29:43,283 --> 00:29:50,642
to file for banking charters so it seems like now even the uh coin casinos you know that that are

356
00:29:50,642 --> 00:29:56,222
were once, oh, anti-bank, are now basically becoming banks in the United States.

357
00:29:56,382 --> 00:30:02,543
So what do you take of essentially this banking industry now starting to try to embrace Bitcoin

358
00:30:02,543 --> 00:30:06,982
and honestly start to try to push us more towards that stablecoin route?

359
00:30:08,063 --> 00:30:10,082
Yeah, I should give a little bit of disclosure.

360
00:30:10,402 --> 00:30:15,043
So in the early days of Bitcoin, I invested in about 100 different companies in the industry.

361
00:30:15,602 --> 00:30:17,043
One of those was Coinbase.

362
00:30:17,043 --> 00:30:23,203
another one was Circle which launched the USD Sablecoin another was Bitfinex that ended up

363
00:30:23,203 --> 00:30:28,862
the sister company to Tether so all and Robinhood as well so all of those companies you just

364
00:30:28,862 --> 00:30:35,783
mentioned I will disclose I am a shareholder and you know as they go public I've been selling

365
00:30:35,783 --> 00:30:41,362
my shares because I don't want to be a part of companies that are now being consolidated

366
00:30:41,362 --> 00:30:43,502
into the Proof of Weapons network.

367
00:30:43,703 --> 00:30:47,182
I was there for them when we were on the Bitcoin mission.

368
00:30:47,662 --> 00:30:49,203
But as these companies go public,

369
00:30:49,523 --> 00:30:51,842
these become banks, essentially.

370
00:30:52,602 --> 00:30:54,662
Once you do a public listing,

371
00:30:54,803 --> 00:30:58,922
you are either owned by the banks or you become a bank.

372
00:30:58,982 --> 00:31:00,582
And there's no exception to the rule.

373
00:31:01,102 --> 00:31:02,763
Or you get targeted by the bank

374
00:31:02,763 --> 00:31:04,842
and knocked off the network in a chapter 11,

375
00:31:04,842 --> 00:31:07,063
in which case the private equity industry

376
00:31:07,063 --> 00:31:08,222
buys you in distress.

377
00:31:08,222 --> 00:31:15,082
you know so uh or the the network always wins and once you've gone to silicon valley and to wall

378
00:31:15,082 --> 00:31:22,322
street um you know there's no reversing that um and so yeah what the interesting thing is

379
00:31:22,322 --> 00:31:30,203
is that banks um are gonna now be allowed if you get so let's look at a few things um the genius

380
00:31:30,203 --> 00:31:36,443
act so we had the biden administration which was incredibly hostile crashed the market we had a

381
00:31:36,443 --> 00:31:42,943
bunch of fraudsters. We had a deliberate coordinated operation to take out the crypto friendly banks

382
00:31:42,943 --> 00:31:52,543
like Signature, Silvergate, Silicon Valley Bank, and some others. And then you had the BlackRock,

383
00:31:52,982 --> 00:31:58,222
the change of administration, the approval of the ETF. Then you had Trump administration.

384
00:31:59,002 --> 00:32:03,682
And Trump administration said, we're going to do Bitcoin strategic reserves. And so far,

385
00:32:03,682 --> 00:32:09,162
he's only confiscated Bitcoins. And so he just did another, I don't mean he,

386
00:32:09,622 --> 00:32:14,722
this is a bit that people get wrong. People think that CEOs are in charge of companies.

387
00:32:15,462 --> 00:32:19,943
CEOs work for their board and boards work for their shareholders. Shareholders are in charge.

388
00:32:20,283 --> 00:32:24,402
And I don't mean the retail shareholder. I mean, the shareholders of the proof of weapons network.

389
00:32:24,822 --> 00:32:29,043
They think the presidents are in charge of countries. Presidents work for their lobbies

390
00:32:29,043 --> 00:32:32,242
and their job is to take the money that they receive from lobby

391
00:32:32,242 --> 00:32:37,322
and put a narrative on top of it to make it look like the people's vote matters.

392
00:32:38,422 --> 00:32:43,122
So lobbies control politicians, executives work for the network,

393
00:32:43,722 --> 00:32:47,322
and they even create the dollar because they own the Federal Reserve.

394
00:32:47,682 --> 00:32:50,043
What if I told you you never had to sell your Bitcoin?

395
00:32:50,362 --> 00:32:53,382
Instead, you can borrow against it with salt lending.

396
00:32:53,882 --> 00:32:58,322
Why give up your hard-earned Bitcoin when you can unlock its value without letting it go?

397
00:32:58,322 --> 00:33:05,722
With Salt, you get secure Bitcoin collateralized loans with no credit checks, no prepayment fees,

398
00:33:06,082 --> 00:33:13,002
and best of all, no rehypothecation. Salt has had zero customer collateral losses since it launched.

399
00:33:13,502 --> 00:33:19,002
Salt was the first platform to offer Bitcoin collateralized loans starting way back in 2016.

400
00:33:19,662 --> 00:33:23,662
Today, they offer tailored options for both individuals and businesses.

401
00:33:23,662 --> 00:33:28,722
And now introducing Salt Shield, the no liquidation solution.

402
00:33:29,122 --> 00:33:33,563
No forced liquidations during the lifetime of your loan when you're enrolled with Salt Shield.

403
00:33:34,023 --> 00:33:40,502
This just launched at the Bitcoin conference in Las Vegas, and it is next level peace of mind.

404
00:33:40,962 --> 00:33:50,822
For green candle listeners only, head to saltlending.com slash green dash candle for this exclusive offer for your Bitcoin collateralized loan.

405
00:33:50,822 --> 00:33:53,862
You can get cash for your Bitcoin today.

406
00:33:54,502 --> 00:33:57,203
Salt Lending, secure, trusted, proven.

407
00:33:57,602 --> 00:34:00,902
And they even create the dollar because they own the Federal Reserve.

408
00:34:01,523 --> 00:34:06,222
And so the board members of the Federal Reserve are just simply the shareholders of the banks.

409
00:34:06,842 --> 00:34:11,922
And so this whole network is centralized into financial control.

410
00:34:12,902 --> 00:34:20,422
And so, you know, but with the illusion of a democracy and some kind of capitalism, which is just not at all.

411
00:34:20,823 --> 00:34:43,722
Where was I going? I was talking about something before I went on that tangent. I said, okay, Trump implemented crypto friendly regulations, seized Bitcoin. That's all that's happened so far. But what was in Genius Act? Genius Act just focused on crypto. Crypto is a Silicon Valley psyop in order to pre-mine fiat currencies to end up with people's Bitcoin.

412
00:34:44,363 --> 00:34:47,802
They have nodes on the network that create all these different things,

413
00:34:48,102 --> 00:34:50,262
put a decentralization wrapper on it,

414
00:34:50,623 --> 00:34:54,902
create something like Terra Luna and say it's a decentralized stablecoin.

415
00:34:55,543 --> 00:34:58,543
And then they're involved in manipulative operations,

416
00:34:58,543 --> 00:35:01,942
whether it be Sam Bankman-Fried, whether it be Alex Majinski,

417
00:35:02,563 --> 00:35:05,462
whether it be any of these different people in the network.

418
00:35:05,982 --> 00:35:08,982
They go get some Silicon Valley money, they pre-mine a coin,

419
00:35:09,063 --> 00:35:10,002
and they go scam people.

420
00:35:10,823 --> 00:35:12,222
That's the crypto industry.

421
00:35:12,802 --> 00:35:15,543
Bitcoin is different because it was created in a different way.

422
00:35:16,442 --> 00:35:18,802
And so the crypto regulations, what has it done?

423
00:35:18,922 --> 00:35:24,082
Well, firstly, it took, because there is an operation, so we got the merging of two operations.

424
00:35:24,282 --> 00:35:33,343
One is to turn the dollar into a technocratic 1984 Orwellian nightmare, a privatized central

425
00:35:33,343 --> 00:35:37,702
bank digital currency with competing interests that can issue those stable points.

426
00:35:37,702 --> 00:36:00,843
So Elon Musk, that's essentially building our social credit score, he gets a stablecoin, Trump through World Liberty Financial. He's managing the outflow of investments over to the Middle East from America. And so he issues his stablecoin every time he's doing a deal with the Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund to manage these capital outflows.

427
00:36:00,843 --> 00:36:05,722
You have all of these different types of transactions that are happening.

428
00:36:06,182 --> 00:36:13,123
But the idea was to have, we're the crypto capital while they build this surveillance state.

429
00:36:14,222 --> 00:36:18,663
And so stablecoins turning the dollar into programmable has a couple of agendas it serves.

430
00:36:19,043 --> 00:36:22,343
Firstly, it allows the government to dump.

431
00:36:22,422 --> 00:36:24,942
If you look at who's buying all the government debt right now,

432
00:36:25,563 --> 00:36:29,843
1.8 trillion of the auctions that are rolling over is owned by Cayman Island.

433
00:36:29,843 --> 00:36:30,643
Who's Cayman Island?

434
00:36:30,843 --> 00:36:37,282
black rock all the financial industrial complex managing your pension so all the foreign countries

435
00:36:37,282 --> 00:36:44,043
are selling u.s government debt and cayman islands is buying it um and so you've got nodes and

436
00:36:44,043 --> 00:36:50,762
countries on the network but they're running out of buyers um and so stable coins via canter

437
00:36:50,762 --> 00:36:57,402
fitzgerald who's a primary dealer that is the buyer of last resort of treasuries can dump a

438
00:36:57,402 --> 00:37:02,602
lot of these treasuries onto stable coins. Stable coins are going to be the American people.

439
00:37:03,123 --> 00:37:10,202
So what are they doing? They're taking the Federal Reserve is having a fight between Trump and Jerome

440
00:37:10,202 --> 00:37:16,722
Powell in order to manipulate the interest rates down to like a quarter of a percent. They want to

441
00:37:16,722 --> 00:37:22,582
do a three, Trump wants to do a 300 basis point decrease. That's never happened in the history of

442
00:37:22,582 --> 00:37:29,323
the Federal Reserve. If he gets it, he's been installing Patsy, you know, Patsy's into the Fed.

443
00:37:30,102 --> 00:37:35,222
But who are the Patsy's he's installing? Well, Trump works for the bank. So everything goes back

444
00:37:35,222 --> 00:37:39,843
to the same network at the end of the day. But you have this illusion. Once you get interest

445
00:37:39,843 --> 00:37:46,282
rates down to a quarter of a percent, you can dump all of these treasuries and debt onto pensions

446
00:37:46,282 --> 00:37:52,863
and stable coins, and they pay the artificially low interest rates. The long term interest rate

447
00:37:52,863 --> 00:37:59,802
is going high. That's what determines mortgages, auto loans, credit cards. So the average person

448
00:37:59,802 --> 00:38:05,102
is struggling. They're moving to a 50 year mortgage in order to roll out their debt.

449
00:38:05,102 --> 00:38:11,722
They're asking, they're begging for $2,000 in order to create more inflation. While Trump is

450
00:38:11,722 --> 00:38:16,902
pushing down the interest rates with the Federal Reserve so that you subsidize the cheap debt.

451
00:38:17,143 --> 00:38:23,742
And stable coins is one vehicle for providing more liquidity to roll over the debt in this

452
00:38:23,742 --> 00:38:29,422
managed decline of the dollar. That money gets pumped into the stock market. So again,

453
00:38:29,702 --> 00:38:35,262
wealth inequality is coming from that and a bunch of it goes into Bitcoin. And then if people lever

454
00:38:35,262 --> 00:38:40,183
against it, they can take more and more of your Bitcoin. So the financial industrial complex is

455
00:38:40,183 --> 00:38:45,902
doing this elaborate thing. Now, what was in the Genius Act? The Genius Act and the Clarity Act,

456
00:38:46,023 --> 00:38:54,282
which is to come, it said that banks are able to use their reserves at the Federal Reserve

457
00:38:54,282 --> 00:39:01,102
as collateral for a stablecoin. So that's $3.2 trillion over to anyone that has a banking

458
00:39:01,102 --> 00:39:07,482
license. It also said, if you are a bank, you get to offer yield on your stablecoin.

459
00:39:07,482 --> 00:39:13,442
so they can borrow from the Fed at the quantitative easing, artificially low rate,

460
00:39:13,802 --> 00:39:21,902
and then pay yield out to the investors to share that in order to take more of the market from the stablecoin issuers that aren't banks.

461
00:39:22,902 --> 00:39:29,802
So what you're doing is you're encouraging everyone to become a bank, and that leads to mergers and acquisitions.

462
00:39:30,262 --> 00:39:33,422
So the banks are just going to acquire as many stablecoin issuers.

463
00:39:33,422 --> 00:39:39,082
they're going to have the advantage and they're going to use this to centralize programmable money,

464
00:39:39,563 --> 00:39:43,843
integrate it with the technical industrial complex, your social credit score.

465
00:39:44,523 --> 00:39:50,702
Also have your Palantir in there as well and usher in in the name of MAGA.

466
00:39:51,143 --> 00:39:53,742
We're winning. We're going to be doing it.

467
00:39:54,202 --> 00:39:57,962
They're giving as much Bitcoin to the financial industrial complex.

468
00:39:57,962 --> 00:40:00,183
And by the way, they're not America first.

469
00:40:00,183 --> 00:40:05,143
they're hosted on the america stock market but these are global financial institutions

470
00:40:05,143 --> 00:40:09,462
if they need to crash america they'll crash america if they need to asset strip america

471
00:40:09,462 --> 00:40:13,962
they'll do it just look what they're doing in the uk don't give a shit about the uk people

472
00:40:13,962 --> 00:40:20,523
they're destroying the country closed borders open borders asset stripping you know um creating

473
00:40:20,523 --> 00:40:26,942
religious and uh religious tensions creating racial tensions and they're buying up all those

474
00:40:26,942 --> 00:40:32,543
assets on the cheap. They're buying the UK's water supply. They're turning it into data centers.

475
00:40:33,023 --> 00:40:39,502
They're manipulating its energy prices. These people are collectively scalping and asset

476
00:40:39,502 --> 00:40:44,982
stripping the West for everything they can while they engineer this move. And stablecoins are an

477
00:40:44,982 --> 00:40:52,462
essential part of it. So this is why Bitcoin in self-custody is the resistance. And no, America

478
00:40:52,462 --> 00:40:57,563
won't have Bitcoin strategic reserve. It will create the legislation to seize your Bitcoin

479
00:40:57,563 --> 00:41:03,202
if it wants. And that seizures, what happened to all the gold that they seized from the Americans

480
00:41:03,202 --> 00:41:08,402
in the 30s? America ain't got it. It's on the Federal Reserve balance sheet. The Federal Reserve

481
00:41:08,402 --> 00:41:13,482
created financial weapons of mass destruction by collateralizing the gold that was meant to be owned

482
00:41:13,482 --> 00:41:19,482
by Treasury. And that's why Trump's not doing an audit at the Fed. Because the only time you do an

483
00:41:19,482 --> 00:41:24,422
audit is when you're ready to crash the dollar and show that that gold's not there it's actually

484
00:41:24,422 --> 00:41:30,683
owned by the fed who is owned by the banks and so you know this is the the the type of sophisticated

485
00:41:30,683 --> 00:41:38,002
operations that america is doing to say we're the center of crypto yeah and i think justin

486
00:41:38,002 --> 00:41:44,282
from a timing perspective it would take them like years probably to to fully audit the gold in fort

487
00:41:44,282 --> 00:41:49,102
Knox if they were actually going to do that. But I mean, there's a few questions I have off of that.

488
00:41:49,102 --> 00:41:56,742
One is, you know, with the connection between Cantor Fitzgerald and Tether and the government,

489
00:41:57,422 --> 00:42:02,683
what role does Howard Lubnick and now Bo Hines going from basically creating the Genius Act to

490
00:42:02,683 --> 00:42:10,462
now being like CEO of USAT, the new USA stable coin of Tether, as well as, you know, Howard Lubnick

491
00:42:10,462 --> 00:42:15,202
moving from Cantor Fitzgerald over, was this all a part of the plan, essentially,

492
00:42:15,643 --> 00:42:20,302
was getting these privatized industries basically under US government control?

493
00:42:21,422 --> 00:42:26,422
Yeah, I'm not sure if, I think saying things are a part of the plan is a step too far,

494
00:42:26,482 --> 00:42:31,262
because most people think of a conspiracy theory and an organized cabal. It's actually way more

495
00:42:31,262 --> 00:42:36,702
decentralized and way more chaotic and disorganized than that. What actually happens is there are

496
00:42:36,702 --> 00:42:41,343
financial weapons of mass destruction, the banks know how to use them. And they hedge and they get

497
00:42:41,343 --> 00:42:45,782
things wrong all the time. They don't win all the time. You know, they get their operations wrong,

498
00:42:45,863 --> 00:42:51,482
but they know how to hedge for every eventuality. And their goal is to control as many of the

499
00:42:51,482 --> 00:42:58,023
levers of power as possible. And so by taking companies public, you know, using financialization,

500
00:42:58,202 --> 00:43:04,843
securitization, and now tokenization, they'll use every weapon that they can in order to extract

501
00:43:04,843 --> 00:43:12,163
more assets from the people. And so Howard Lutnick is just one of those people in the network. You

502
00:43:12,163 --> 00:43:17,502
look at everyone around the Trump administration, you've got Steve Witkoff, which is envoy to the

503
00:43:17,502 --> 00:43:22,363
Middle East. What's he doing? He's a shareholder in World Liberty Financial, which is issuing

504
00:43:22,363 --> 00:43:28,363
stable coins every time they do a deal with the Middle East, setting up funds, $2 billion funds

505
00:43:28,363 --> 00:43:34,663
funded by Saudi in order to actually geopolitically influence the situation, selling off American

506
00:43:34,663 --> 00:43:40,402
assets of AI, building data centers across the Middle East, and then saying that he's helping

507
00:43:40,402 --> 00:43:47,742
America. And who is his son? His son's part of World Liberty Financial. You got Steve Witkoff,

508
00:43:47,823 --> 00:43:54,843
you got Howard Lutnick. Howard Lutnick's son owns Cantor Fitzgerald now. And so Cantor Fitzgerald

509
00:43:54,843 --> 00:44:00,402
is doing the leverage part of it. They're custodying the stable coins. They're engaging

510
00:44:00,402 --> 00:44:02,402
in investment banking activities to make,

511
00:44:02,523 --> 00:44:16,383
to take as many Bitcoin treasury companies public And they creating the loans to mine fiat currency by getting you to collateralize your bitcoin so they essential in that network um you also got bo hines as

512
00:44:16,383 --> 00:44:24,424
you said he's left gone to tether tether ripple labs uh coin uh coinbase what do they do in there

513
00:44:24,424 --> 00:44:30,084
they use they're part of the crypto lobby this is a new emerging lobby they paid for a percentage

514
00:44:30,084 --> 00:44:33,744
with the technical industrial complex of the White House ballroom.

515
00:44:34,204 --> 00:44:37,924
So by paying for the ballroom, they're leveraging their way in.

516
00:44:37,924 --> 00:44:42,383
And then suddenly Tether announced that, hey, the White House person, you're on our board.

517
00:44:42,704 --> 00:44:44,823
We're going to create a U.S. version of Tether.

518
00:44:45,404 --> 00:44:52,604
And essentially, these are the backhanded deals in order to allow Tether to exist outside the U.S.

519
00:44:52,724 --> 00:44:57,784
It's very important to have separation, a U.S. compliant version, which is the front company.

520
00:44:57,784 --> 00:45:00,964
and then you have the ability to exist outside the US,

521
00:45:01,303 --> 00:45:04,704
but you have to sign up to some Wall Street influence.

522
00:45:04,924 --> 00:45:06,204
They want some levers over to you.

523
00:45:06,504 --> 00:45:10,124
So you must custody your treasuries with Cantor Fitzgerald

524
00:45:10,124 --> 00:45:11,644
and in Cantor Fitzgerald,

525
00:45:11,684 --> 00:45:13,484
if they want to wipe Tether off the network,

526
00:45:13,863 --> 00:45:14,584
they have leverage.

527
00:45:14,684 --> 00:45:16,084
They've signed up and joined the mafia.

528
00:45:16,604 --> 00:45:18,504
Same with people like Nakamoto,

529
00:45:19,104 --> 00:45:20,484
the Bitcoin treasury company.

530
00:45:20,484 --> 00:45:21,944
Same with Jack Dorsey.

531
00:45:22,124 --> 00:45:25,724
He's now in bed with the Japan Proof of Weapons Network

532
00:45:25,724 --> 00:45:27,104
via SoftBank.

533
00:45:27,104 --> 00:45:31,303
the American Proof of Weapons Network with the Fed and Howard Lutnick,

534
00:45:31,744 --> 00:45:33,323
and they're doing deals together.

535
00:45:33,823 --> 00:45:36,764
And so what you're seeing is there's a decentralized network

536
00:45:36,764 --> 00:45:39,044
where nobody has the full power.

537
00:45:39,544 --> 00:45:44,264
One of my absolute favorite things about Bitcoin is meeting all of you in person.

538
00:45:44,464 --> 00:45:46,904
So mark your calendars for February 28th

539
00:45:46,904 --> 00:45:50,303
and come down to where I've called home for the past eight years,

540
00:45:50,704 --> 00:45:51,564
Tampa, Florida.

541
00:45:52,164 --> 00:45:55,564
The Bitcoin Bay Foundation is putting on the Sound Money Soiree.

542
00:45:55,564 --> 00:45:56,924
It's the third annual.

543
00:45:57,104 --> 00:46:01,604
It's a night of Bitcoin, poker, an open bar, and a silent auction.

544
00:46:02,204 --> 00:46:08,044
All support will go to Bitcoin Bay, a nonprofit that is creating a circular economy down in Tampa Bay, Florida.

545
00:46:08,484 --> 00:46:15,044
They're doing absolutely great things, and it's the Bitcoin community that I've called home for such a long time,

546
00:46:15,044 --> 00:46:17,444
and these guys are absolutely crushing it.

547
00:46:17,524 --> 00:46:19,704
So please do anything you can to support.

548
00:46:20,124 --> 00:46:20,944
Buy your tickets today.

549
00:46:21,064 --> 00:46:25,944
You can use promo code GREENCANDLE to get 10% off your Sound Money Soiree tickets.

550
00:46:25,944 --> 00:46:27,784
So do you know anything about Bitcoin?

551
00:46:28,104 --> 00:46:28,404
No.

552
00:46:28,624 --> 00:46:30,924
You guys can come down and see this ugly mug.

553
00:46:31,304 --> 00:46:33,004
Come boogie on the dance floor, shake it.

554
00:46:33,084 --> 00:46:36,363
And now that Bitcoin's over 100k, you can do it all with your girlfriends.

555
00:46:37,304 --> 00:46:39,304
All right, enough for me. Let's get back to the show.

556
00:46:44,264 --> 00:46:48,464
But no, but the, you know, there is no, you can't get out of the network.

557
00:46:48,464 --> 00:46:50,323
Once you join the mafia, you're in the mafia.

558
00:46:50,984 --> 00:46:53,144
So Tether is part of that network.

559
00:46:53,564 --> 00:46:54,704
And then they hedge.

560
00:46:54,704 --> 00:47:01,224
And when they want to take Tether off the network, they try and manipulate, you know, legislation, lobby money.

561
00:47:02,084 --> 00:47:08,204
And at the worst, you know, this network also has control of the quote unquote deep state.

562
00:47:08,764 --> 00:47:12,604
You know, they own the military industrial complex that gets Pentagon budgets.

563
00:47:13,044 --> 00:47:15,624
The Pentagon budgets means they have access to the CIA.

564
00:47:15,984 --> 00:47:24,684
If the CIA wants to knock someone off the network, you can be blackmailed, you can be assassinated, you can be tarnished, you can be called all sorts of reputation.

565
00:47:24,704 --> 00:47:32,524
things. And this is the network has these types of levers. So as soon as a company goes public,

566
00:47:32,524 --> 00:47:40,264
goes Silicon Valley, joins crypto VCs, does stable coins under the legislation,

567
00:47:40,843 --> 00:47:46,684
creates a bank, gets that license, they're in the network and they are no longer on our side.

568
00:47:47,064 --> 00:47:52,424
Whether they're good people, this is not a judgment character. This is how the network gets you. And it

569
00:47:52,424 --> 00:47:53,624
is us versus them.

570
00:47:54,024 --> 00:47:55,704
That is what Bitcoin was designed for.

571
00:47:55,784 --> 00:47:57,744
It was us versus them.

572
00:47:57,984 --> 00:47:59,484
They are all a part of that network.

573
00:47:59,604 --> 00:48:02,323
And your job is to win Bitcoin in self-custody,

574
00:48:02,764 --> 00:48:05,684
eventually run a node and get ready for the battle ahead

575
00:48:05,684 --> 00:48:06,904
because we're going to win.

576
00:48:07,863 --> 00:48:08,863
Amen to that.

577
00:48:08,964 --> 00:48:10,883
Yeah, I definitely think we are going to win.

578
00:48:10,883 --> 00:48:14,883
But obviously there's going to be some temptation, I guess,

579
00:48:15,024 --> 00:48:18,343
here in the short term because of all these players coming in.

580
00:48:18,343 --> 00:48:29,304
Now, what do you take of Jamie Dimon and JP Morgan's role in all of this, especially as they've essentially done this flip that I mentioned a little bit earlier?

581
00:48:29,424 --> 00:48:31,343
Because I think it's really unique.

582
00:48:31,524 --> 00:48:36,704
We're seeing the banking industry now trying to get into the stablecoin aspect of it.

583
00:48:36,704 --> 00:48:48,184
So, you mentioned a little bit earlier about the new banking issuance where they can essentially use the Federal Reserve in order to issue these stablecoins.

584
00:48:48,343 --> 00:48:53,184
Do you think that that's going to be the case where every bank now has their own stablecoin

585
00:48:53,184 --> 00:48:55,604
or are they going to try to keep it in privatized companies?

586
00:48:55,984 --> 00:48:58,764
How do you see this overall, I guess, working?

587
00:48:58,764 --> 00:49:01,524
And you mentioned the UK here earlier.

588
00:49:02,304 --> 00:49:06,863
I don't think a lot of people are talking about the US and the UK recently making this

589
00:49:06,863 --> 00:49:13,044
partnership to collaborate on overlooking and, you know, essentially just monitoring

590
00:49:13,044 --> 00:49:15,604
the crypto industry is what they're calling it.

591
00:49:15,604 --> 00:49:25,104
And obviously the craziness going on in the UK, if you want a free and open state in America, it would be the exact opposite what's going on in the UK.

592
00:49:25,424 --> 00:49:34,964
So working together would just be a complete lunacy and would just be a complete opposite of what the United States allegedly stands for with all this.

593
00:49:35,064 --> 00:49:40,863
So what do you take of that partnership on top of how the banks are starting to play with these stablecoins?

594
00:49:41,304 --> 00:49:43,584
Okay, let me take that as two separate questions.

595
00:49:43,584 --> 00:49:47,304
If I forget the second, I get a bit excited sometimes and forget my trailer thought.

596
00:49:47,644 --> 00:49:49,964
So I'll come back to UK if I forget to do it.

597
00:49:50,084 --> 00:49:51,383
Let's start with JP Morgan.

598
00:49:52,044 --> 00:49:55,564
So JP Morgan's places a very special role.

599
00:49:55,684 --> 00:50:00,624
You know, the creature from Jekyll Island, the Jeffrey Epstein's banker.

600
00:50:00,904 --> 00:50:08,764
You know, this is a deep state actor, financialization, securitization, deep relationship with the military industrial complex, deep state.

601
00:50:08,764 --> 00:50:14,484
you know this is top of the power structure when it comes to financialization and securitization

602
00:50:14,484 --> 00:50:19,984
but it is a public company although it has a lot of off balance sheet black op operations

603
00:50:19,984 --> 00:50:25,764
the ones that make it to the balance sheet that has the share price and its share price its number

604
00:50:25,764 --> 00:50:31,804
one shareholders of BlackRock State Street and Vanguard so while it has significant power it is

605
00:50:31,804 --> 00:50:37,464
also really subordinate to the main asset management power structure and so Jamie Diamond

606
00:50:37,464 --> 00:50:44,204
is just an executive. Executives, an important executive, but he works for a power structure,

607
00:50:44,383 --> 00:50:49,843
which is his board and shareholders. And so when Jamie Dimon says something, if he's saying the

608
00:50:49,843 --> 00:50:55,604
wrong thing, he'll get the memo coming down from the agenda of the higher powers that be.

609
00:50:56,064 --> 00:51:00,184
The top of the network, BlackRock, wants Bitcoin and securitization tokenization.

610
00:51:01,004 --> 00:51:06,304
And so BlackRock, Larry Fink, can push down to JP Morgan, while JP Morgan and Larry Fink are in

611
00:51:06,304 --> 00:51:11,244
a bit of a power struggle, they have the same shareholders. And so the shareholders can dictate.

612
00:51:11,584 --> 00:51:17,704
So if Jamie Dimon's job is to go out there and say crypto is a scam, Bitcoin is a scam,

613
00:51:18,164 --> 00:51:23,044
he was doing that throughout the takedown phase. He was also doing it during the distressed

614
00:51:23,044 --> 00:51:30,064
acquisition phase when Celsius was blowing up and FTX was blowing up. And it was doing it during the

615
00:51:30,064 --> 00:51:37,484
the ETF phase that gave BlackRock the maximum volume so that JP Morgan didn't become the number

616
00:51:37,484 --> 00:51:44,164
one ETF issuer or anything like that. So there is a hierarchy in terms of who gets the assets first.

617
00:51:44,804 --> 00:51:50,964
BlackRock was meant to be the number one liquidity provider. Remember BlackRock in the 2008 financial

618
00:51:50,964 --> 00:51:57,664
crisis was the contractor to the Federal Reserve when determining which companies go bust and which

619
00:51:57,664 --> 00:52:04,064
companies survive. JP Morgan was borrowing right up from the Federal Reserve using Aladdin and

620
00:52:04,064 --> 00:52:11,224
BlackRock's consultations. And they took out the ETF department of Barclays. That's that UK

621
00:52:11,224 --> 00:52:17,744
relationship going on. And they ended up with all the ETFs that Barclays iShares had, which gave

622
00:52:17,744 --> 00:52:23,304
them all of this ETF power that they're now using in order to get all of these board seats and

623
00:52:23,304 --> 00:52:30,184
various other things and get to the $12 trillion of assets. So JP Morgan and BlackRock are two of

624
00:52:30,184 --> 00:52:38,544
the most important nodes on the structure. I do believe that JP Morgan is the chosen one

625
00:52:38,544 --> 00:52:44,484
to do the covert central bank digital currency. So they'll be building out the rails to make

626
00:52:44,484 --> 00:52:51,324
Americans think, oh, those Europeans, they're all communists. They're all like crazy. They're all

627
00:52:51,324 --> 00:52:59,224
lefty radicals, transgenders and LGBTQs and rainbow fairies and, you know, warriors for,

628
00:52:59,224 --> 00:53:06,404
you know, climate change, and they're destroying their economy, when the reality is they're owned

629
00:53:06,404 --> 00:53:13,064
by the same network. So what the network does is it creates competing ideologies. Europe,

630
00:53:13,304 --> 00:53:18,863
which is European Union and ECB are a part of, it was a creation of the Bank for International

631
00:53:18,863 --> 00:53:24,444
settlements. The Bank for International Settlements is where all the central banks are shareholders

632
00:53:24,444 --> 00:53:30,124
and the Federal Reserve is the most important node with the proxy vote. So Bank for International

633
00:53:30,124 --> 00:53:36,264
Settlements can say, ECB, you're going to be a central bank digital currency. You're going to be

634
00:53:36,264 --> 00:53:43,444
the socialism narrative. And America, you're going to be privatized, same model, but through stable

635
00:53:43,444 --> 00:53:51,383
coins why because the federal reserve is the only central bank owned by the banks all of the other

636
00:53:51,383 --> 00:53:57,304
central banks are shareholders in the bank for international settlements but they're owned by

637
00:53:57,304 --> 00:54:02,863
the government infrastructure so the central bank in all the other central banks is a mechanism for

638
00:54:02,863 --> 00:54:09,584
controlling the government and their job is to print as much money and bankrupt governments

639
00:54:09,584 --> 00:54:15,664
and send that money back up via NATO into the US stock market.

640
00:54:16,564 --> 00:54:19,863
And so you have to push out narratives to strategically weaken.

641
00:54:20,184 --> 00:54:25,444
And then you force your policy because you own all the companies and the stocks

642
00:54:25,444 --> 00:54:29,304
and you make Europe look like they're some crazy communist country

643
00:54:29,304 --> 00:54:34,863
when really it's just the network controlling both sides of the narrative.

644
00:54:35,324 --> 00:54:37,824
They've done this historically time and time again.

645
00:54:37,824 --> 00:54:56,964
You know, Wall Street funded both. They created the Federal Reserve, the creature from Jekyll Island. J.P. Morgan was a part of that power structure. You know, they also funded the Bolshevik Revolution that led to the overthrow of the Russian Tsar into Soviet Union and communism.

646
00:54:56,964 --> 00:55:03,804
they also funded nazi fascist germany and the hitler regime um through the bank for international

647
00:55:03,804 --> 00:55:09,023
settlements when the rice bank who was the governor of the rice bank uh the walberg brothers who was

648
00:55:09,023 --> 00:55:13,824
also governor of the federal reserve so what they've got a history of doing is they create

649
00:55:13,824 --> 00:55:19,044
fake capitalism which has bankrupt the u.s government with 38 trillion dollars of debt over

650
00:55:19,044 --> 00:55:26,944
the last 80, 80, 100 years, and take the other sides of the ideology. So they benefited from

651
00:55:26,944 --> 00:55:32,444
communism, they benefited from fascism, and they created fake capitalism in America, which was a

652
00:55:32,444 --> 00:55:38,363
debt-based Ponzi scheme, which is the US dollar to bankrupt the US government and turn it into

653
00:55:38,363 --> 00:55:45,964
fascism again, which is where America's headed to. Europe is headed for more closer to communism,

654
00:55:45,964 --> 00:55:48,104
but controlled by private interests.

655
00:55:48,564 --> 00:55:53,064
America's going to an Orwellian technocracy surveillance state with fascism.

656
00:55:53,383 --> 00:55:57,144
And then they're partnering with the other countries they don't control,

657
00:55:57,144 --> 00:56:02,144
which is the Gulf countries, BRICS, China, Russia, various other countries.

658
00:56:03,004 --> 00:56:05,244
And so that is where the network is.

659
00:56:05,383 --> 00:56:11,204
And JP Morgan is an essential part of transitioning to that multipolar world.

660
00:56:11,444 --> 00:56:13,164
We covered the UK side.

661
00:56:13,684 --> 00:56:17,724
The UK is just a patsy to the proof of weapons network, as is the US.

662
00:56:18,224 --> 00:56:19,744
But the US has a different thing.

663
00:56:19,883 --> 00:56:24,924
It hosts the most liquid capital markets, and the banks are allowed to create the dollar.

664
00:56:25,544 --> 00:56:30,244
So they're going to weaponize liquid capital markets and the dollar for as long as they can.

665
00:56:30,244 --> 00:56:32,523
But they're acquiring the UK.

666
00:56:32,724 --> 00:56:34,383
They're acquiring Australia.

667
00:56:34,604 --> 00:56:36,144
They're acquiring Canada.

668
00:56:36,644 --> 00:56:39,363
They're acquiring the European Union.

669
00:56:39,363 --> 00:56:45,124
These are constructs for having full command and control to the proof of weapons network.

670
00:56:46,264 --> 00:56:47,904
And so that's what these operations are.

671
00:56:48,004 --> 00:56:54,744
So when you see the European Union is going to be a central bank digital currency, America

672
00:56:54,744 --> 00:57:01,804
will be stable coins issued by the proof of weapons network, and UK gets to keep the

673
00:57:01,804 --> 00:57:07,124
probably either do a digital pound or they're going to do some kind of, you know, I think

674
00:57:07,124 --> 00:57:11,944
they'll probably go to digital pounds and CBDC model, but they're all serving the same network

675
00:57:11,944 --> 00:57:18,184
and the same agenda. Now, I think that this is really interesting. What do you make of like

676
00:57:18,184 --> 00:57:23,564
these limits that they're putting on already? I mean, why would you ever hold generational wealth

677
00:57:23,564 --> 00:57:29,784
on a piece of paper? It doesn't make sense. You need a foolproof solution and I've got it for you.

678
00:57:29,944 --> 00:57:35,644
You could get this as low as $25. And if you use promo code green candle, you could get 10% off

679
00:57:35,644 --> 00:57:41,684
Being around for 12 years, they've engineered the perfect and most easy to use solution.

680
00:57:42,124 --> 00:57:45,504
I've partnered with CryptoSteel to offer for you guys just that.

682
00:57:49,944 --> 00:57:55,824
I don't know about you guys, but I don't have too many things where I think one ton is going to fall on this,

683
00:57:55,924 --> 00:57:58,324
but it could survive all of that and more.

684
00:57:58,944 --> 00:58:01,544
So go to CryptoSteel.com.

685
00:58:01,624 --> 00:58:03,444

688
00:58:13,924 --> 00:58:15,244
All right, enough from me.

689
00:58:15,343 --> 00:58:16,204
Back to the show.

690
00:58:18,284 --> 00:58:20,304
Now, I think that this is really interesting.

691
00:58:20,464 --> 00:58:23,724
What do you make of like these limits that they're putting on already?

692
00:58:23,964 --> 00:58:28,044
I mean, they're essentially just not even trying to hide it anymore.

693
00:58:28,044 --> 00:58:34,924
i believe the bank of england just said that uh they're going to put these limits on uh their cbdc

694
00:58:34,924 --> 00:58:40,124
that they're going to issue or the digital pound that they're going to issue to just 20 000

695
00:58:40,124 --> 00:58:45,484
um i was going to say twenty thousand dollars but twenty thousand pounds obviously and it seems like

696
00:58:45,484 --> 00:58:52,523
you know there's all these limits that they're issuing up with these cbdcs already so they're

697
00:58:52,565 --> 00:58:57,625
the quiet parts out loud and it doesn't seem like anybody's rebelling except for when it comes to

698
00:58:57,625 --> 00:59:04,305
the digital ids in the uk they're putting limits at like 20 000 pounds and um you know they're

699
00:59:04,305 --> 00:59:09,565
already talking about these social credit scores i mean christine lagarde even compared their cbdc

700
00:59:09,565 --> 00:59:15,385
rollout to the digital euro rollout to what they're seeing in china so they're essentially

701
00:59:15,385 --> 00:59:21,085
saying the the quiet parts out loud at this point and it doesn't even seem like they're trying to

702
00:59:21,085 --> 00:59:30,845
hide it anymore yeah so the model is um normally is you have an unelected european union whose job

703
00:59:30,845 --> 00:59:37,045
is to create a narrative for the european central bank to print money and then that money goes back

704
00:59:37,045 --> 00:59:42,825
into u.s contractors to prop up the u.s stock market and pop up the and prop up the euro dollar

705
00:59:42,825 --> 00:59:47,425
and the same in the middle east you have the same with the petrodollar which is interestingly

706
00:59:47,425 --> 00:59:53,665
working in reverse right now. But that's the Euro, that's the Anglo-American and European Union.

707
00:59:53,665 --> 00:59:58,705
It all goes through together. What they typically do is the narrative around central bank digital

708
00:59:58,705 --> 01:00:05,265
currencies in the West started with the Bank of England. And then they had the Enbridge project,

709
01:00:05,265 --> 01:00:11,585
which was to go integrate into the bank for international settlements. And then you have

710
01:00:11,585 --> 01:00:16,865
the regulations that come from the Financial Action Task Force. The Financial Action Task

711
01:00:16,865 --> 01:00:22,865
is kind of a subset of the International Monetary Fund and the Bank for International Settlements.

712
01:00:23,105 --> 01:00:25,765
Both of those are US controlled by proxy.

713
01:00:26,545 --> 01:00:32,105
And so the US gets to determine what happens to Europe and UK via these proxy networks.

714
01:00:32,565 --> 01:00:39,325
And so what they do is they beta test the UK, scale it on Europe, and then implement it in US,

715
01:00:39,325 --> 01:00:45,805
but the privatized version because the america is all about stealing assets from the americans

716
01:00:45,805 --> 01:00:51,285
and consolidating them over to the proof of weapons network so they always do the privatized

717
01:00:51,285 --> 01:00:58,485
version in america and then the experiment with the the you know the the digital id the central

718
01:00:58,485 --> 01:01:04,345
bank digital currencies uh the narratives the immigration crisis all the divide and conquer

719
01:01:04,345 --> 01:01:10,285
operations, civil unrest, all the things they do in UK, then they scale it in Europe and then they

720
01:01:10,285 --> 01:01:16,185
bring it to America, but where it all goes up to the privatized interest in the US stock market.

721
01:01:19,285 --> 01:01:25,205
Now, it seems like there's a lot of potential manipulation points for all of this. Now,

722
01:01:25,205 --> 01:01:30,645
I want to revert back to something that you brought up earlier, when it comes to a lot of

723
01:01:30,645 --> 01:01:35,045
the financialization of Bitcoin. You know, we've seen a lot of these derivative products,

724
01:01:35,485 --> 01:01:40,465
options, all of these different things start to come to Bitcoin to try to treat it like an asset.

725
01:01:41,065 --> 01:01:45,625
Now, that obviously brings a lot of centralization. Is that just kind of the ruse

726
01:01:45,625 --> 01:01:50,845
of this whole thing is just to create these financialized products in order to,

727
01:01:50,845 --> 01:01:55,845
you know, allow you to put more Bitcoin into their custody so they can take it?

728
01:01:56,245 --> 01:02:00,505
Or is there just, you know, am I maybe reading too much into this?

729
01:02:00,645 --> 01:02:22,625
Now, Wall Street only cares about one thing, profits. They want to financialize and securitize and now tokenize absolutely everything. They want it to be trading 24-7 and they want hedge funds to manipulate prices, private equity to acquire in distress, investment banks to create the product, asset managers to buy the products, and then the private banks to create the fiat currency.

730
01:02:22,625 --> 01:02:31,545
Now they want the central bank, sorry, the stable coins and the CBDCs so that they can have the integration with the technical industrial complex.

731
01:02:31,745 --> 01:02:35,965
The technical industrial complex needs digital IDs, social credit scores.

732
01:02:36,545 --> 01:02:43,945
And then you have financial institutions on both sides, the banking side and the alternative side.

733
01:02:44,125 --> 01:02:46,665
All of these are part of the same network hedging.

734
01:02:47,085 --> 01:02:49,965
And then you get to manipulate the price via the hedge funds.

735
01:02:49,965 --> 01:02:55,105
You also get to create the derivative products, which are the financial weapons of mass destruction.

736
01:02:55,245 --> 01:03:19,445
The goal is to make you trade as much as possible, pay as much interest as possible for leverage, put as much as your Bitcoin in their custody, charge custody fees, create products, financialize, securitize, roll it over, turn it into a credit default swap, create a collateralized debt obligation, create a collateralized Bitcoin obligation, slice it up, tokenize it, wrap it,

737
01:03:19,445 --> 01:03:25,185
put it into a mortgage product, anything to make you exchange your Bitcoin in self-custody

738
01:03:25,185 --> 01:03:32,065
for fiat currency loan and debt enslavement. And they want your Bitcoin in custody so that when

739
01:03:32,065 --> 01:03:37,505
they want to change the levers of power, boom, they can manipulate prices, margin call you,

740
01:03:37,725 --> 01:03:43,145
and get as much Bitcoin in their custody for as much fees as they can. And that's their game.

741
01:03:43,145 --> 01:03:49,265
Their game is simply one thing. They have a quarterly annual rapport and they need to produce

742
01:03:49,265 --> 01:03:55,265
profits. They have the off balance sheet illegal operations and they have the on balance sheet

743
01:03:55,265 --> 01:04:00,965
legal operations. They need to siphon as much money through the illegal ops onto the legal ops.

744
01:04:01,525 --> 01:04:06,665
And then every quarter, people will say to them, are you making us more money or less money?

745
01:04:06,925 --> 01:04:12,365
Are you accumulating more assets or less assets? And their job is to create financial weapons of

746
01:04:12,365 --> 01:04:17,365
mass destruction to meet that goal so that shareholders still buy their shares. And that's

747
01:04:17,365 --> 01:04:21,625
they only care about profits. They don't care about you. They don't care about their customers.

748
01:04:21,945 --> 01:04:25,925
They don't care if they kill people. They don't care about wars. They don't care about anything.

749
01:04:26,005 --> 01:04:30,245
There is no ethics. There is no morality. There is no humanity. There is no sustainability.

750
01:04:30,725 --> 01:04:35,165
If your country is no longer useful for them, they'll wipe your country out, acquire it,

751
01:04:35,185 --> 01:04:39,705
and move on to the next country. If you're not having children and your birth rates are down,

752
01:04:40,025 --> 01:04:45,085
they'll just go over to Africa that's still having children and decide to create peace there

753
01:04:45,085 --> 01:04:48,025
as long as they can own as much of the infrastructure

754
01:04:48,025 --> 01:04:49,665
and the resources as possible.

755
01:04:50,145 --> 01:04:52,465
You know, if you are no longer useful as humans,

756
01:04:52,825 --> 01:04:54,745
they'll make sure they got artificial intelligence

757
01:04:54,745 --> 01:04:57,005
and robotics so that they can manage it.

758
01:04:57,065 --> 01:04:59,305
And when you can no longer do anything,

759
01:04:59,425 --> 01:05:00,825
they want to manage your benefits,

760
01:05:01,065 --> 01:05:02,885
put you on a universal basic income,

761
01:05:02,885 --> 01:05:05,685
and they will do whatever is required

762
01:05:05,685 --> 01:05:07,345
to meet the bottom line

763
01:05:07,345 --> 01:05:08,905
because their God and their worship

764
01:05:08,905 --> 01:05:10,825
is money and money alone.

765
01:05:13,205 --> 01:05:14,805
Now, I love that rant.

766
01:05:14,805 --> 01:05:16,885
And I agree with you 100%.

767
01:05:16,885 --> 01:05:21,005
But it leads me to that question, not only Wall Street, but where does the government

768
01:05:21,005 --> 01:05:21,885
come into this?

769
01:05:21,985 --> 01:05:25,545
Because they've just been essentially seizing Bitcoin.

770
01:05:25,925 --> 01:05:29,525
And the last seizure I thought was really interesting because it was like, you know,

771
01:05:29,565 --> 01:05:33,625
a Chinese citizen, I believe, who got arrested in the UK.

772
01:05:33,625 --> 01:05:37,945
And then now all of a sudden, somehow, some way, the United States was able to get this

773
01:05:37,945 --> 01:05:40,225
Bitcoin and add it to its strategic reserve.

774
01:05:40,565 --> 01:05:44,385
So it seemed like it went through a little leaps and bounds in order to get into the

775
01:05:44,385 --> 01:05:48,725
United States custody. But it leads to the question, I mean, we've seen the United States

776
01:05:48,725 --> 01:05:54,845
seize gold previously. Is there a thought that they could essentially either seize from the

777
01:05:54,845 --> 01:06:01,045
citizens Bitcoin or they could even purchase part of a company? I mean, we've seen them already

778
01:06:01,045 --> 01:06:06,745
try to buy some of Intel. Would they buy 10, 20% of MicroStrategy, then all of a sudden,

779
01:06:07,105 --> 01:06:19,393
that Bitcoin that MSTR has been buying is now under for the Bitcoin strategic reserve Yeah so people have to rethink what governments are People think their vote matters and that they

780
01:06:19,393 --> 01:06:24,973
work for the American people for an America first agenda. That's not correct. They are money laundering

781
01:06:24,973 --> 01:06:31,973
organizations to justify to the people why they should keep voting left and right and be distracted

782
01:06:31,973 --> 01:06:38,613
thinking that a vote matters when there is one uni-party agenda, which is that of its lobbies.

783
01:06:39,013 --> 01:06:43,893
And the lobbies is the financial industrial complex and a proof of weapons network. And so

784
01:06:43,893 --> 01:06:50,993
governments are just tools to seize assets, create laws that help the network, rage wars and create

785
01:06:50,993 --> 01:06:56,513
narratives. That's all governments are. Their job is to do one thing and one thing only, take on debt

786
01:06:56,513 --> 01:07:02,153
and allow the banks to print more money and keep rolling over the Ponzi scheme. That's all their

787
01:07:02,153 --> 01:07:08,213
job is. That's the only thing Trump is there to do. That he is there to roll over the debt

788
01:07:08,213 --> 01:07:14,753
and figure out how to get someone to buy those bonds. That is Scott Bessent's job. He's a debt

789
01:07:14,753 --> 01:07:19,813
dealer. That is all his job is. It's not to help the Americans. If you want to push them out to 50

790
01:07:19,813 --> 01:07:26,173
year mortgages and then whatever it may be. And so, you know, that's what governments are for.

791
01:07:26,173 --> 01:07:49,973
So they don't want the government to have the Bitcoin. They want the Bitcoin. And so if the government can seize Bitcoins, then they want to keep it on that balance sheet and get it maybe in a, the only Bitcoin strategic reserve you'll get is not buying them. It will be confiscating them. And so it's slightly different from the gold story. Let's go back to the gold story and then compare it to the Bitcoin story.

792
01:07:49,973 --> 01:08:06,653
So you had an over leveraging, you had the Federal Reserve, 1913, the roaring 20s, everybody was buying stocks, you had a dot com boom and bust, but the equivalent Industrial Revolution version, you know, in the 20s after the World War leading into World War Two.

793
01:08:06,653 --> 01:08:10,613
and they were pumping up levered stocks like crazy.

794
01:08:10,773 --> 01:08:13,353
It was like the AI bubble that we're experiencing right now.

795
01:08:13,753 --> 01:08:16,073
Everyone was saying, this technology is going to change the world.

796
01:08:16,153 --> 01:08:16,813
I want my shares.

797
01:08:17,013 --> 01:08:18,353
I want to borrow against my house.

798
01:08:18,373 --> 01:08:19,193
I want to do everything.

799
01:08:19,193 --> 01:08:22,313
They were creating levered up financial weapons of mass destruction

800
01:08:22,313 --> 01:08:24,873
and then they crashed the market.

801
01:08:25,313 --> 01:08:27,653
Then we had massive cascading liquidations

802
01:08:27,653 --> 01:08:32,673
and they consolidated power and acquired many of the cheap assets.

803
01:08:33,473 --> 01:08:35,973
Now, the government started going deeper into debt.

804
01:08:35,973 --> 01:08:39,293
We then go into, you know, we then go into a Great Depression.

805
01:08:40,013 --> 01:08:45,533
They will outweigh, they will out, you know, they have the ability to last longer than you do.

806
01:08:45,933 --> 01:08:47,733
You know, they can handle these Great Depression.

807
01:08:47,953 --> 01:08:48,533
They don't care.

808
01:08:49,293 --> 01:08:53,313
And so then Roosevelt comes along and says, let's make gold ownership illegal.

809
01:08:54,173 --> 01:08:59,713
Because of all the wars and the debt, people were exchanging at that time their dollars for gold.

810
01:09:00,333 --> 01:09:04,693
And so they decided we need to, we got all of the British colonial gold.

811
01:09:04,693 --> 01:09:07,633
We got the Russian Soviet Union SAR gold.

812
01:09:07,873 --> 01:09:10,633
We got the German Nazi Germany gold.

813
01:09:11,073 --> 01:09:14,253
We got 75% of all the gold in Fort Knox.

814
01:09:14,653 --> 01:09:19,093
And we got our manufacturing base and our military industrial complex.

815
01:09:19,453 --> 01:09:22,393
We need to build our economy on war and manufacturing.

816
01:09:23,073 --> 01:09:25,753
And so this was the construct of that.

817
01:09:25,833 --> 01:09:26,853
So what did they need to do?

818
01:09:26,993 --> 01:09:30,453
They needed to confiscate all of the gold from the American people

819
01:09:30,453 --> 01:09:35,193
in order to replenish those supplies and build the military industrial complex

820
01:09:35,193 --> 01:09:38,193
and build the post-World War II Bretton Woods system.

821
01:09:39,413 --> 01:09:42,033
And that was getting the world addicted to dollar debt

822
01:09:42,033 --> 01:09:45,413
and persuade everyone to stop converting their currencies to gold

823
01:09:45,413 --> 01:09:47,573
and just convert their currencies to dollars.

824
01:09:48,093 --> 01:09:49,393
And then they would do that.

825
01:09:49,533 --> 01:09:54,413
So they confiscated the gold from the American people by executive order.

826
01:09:55,033 --> 01:09:57,093
And then that all ended up in Fort Knox.

827
01:09:57,093 --> 01:10:03,053
but it was to replenish the gold reserves leading into World War II

828
01:10:03,053 --> 01:10:07,393
to build the military industrial complex, the IMF, the World Bank,

829
01:10:07,473 --> 01:10:10,373
and the post-World War II Bretton Woods dollar standard.

830
01:10:11,093 --> 01:10:15,453
Obviously, they defaulted in 71 after the Vietnamese war,

831
01:10:15,853 --> 01:10:18,553
and then we entered into the fiat standard that we have today

832
01:10:18,553 --> 01:10:20,893
where there's no convertibility into gold.

833
01:10:21,073 --> 01:10:22,953
It's just a question of who will buy the bonds.

834
01:10:22,953 --> 01:10:31,793
um now that was needed as a tool to replenish gold reserves um you know to to keep the gold

835
01:10:31,793 --> 01:10:37,193
window open and to manipulate the price at the time now let's bring it back to where you know

836
01:10:37,193 --> 01:10:42,773
where we are now bitcoin is not there's no convertibility of the dollar into bitcoin there

837
01:10:42,773 --> 01:10:48,193
is no bitcoin backing so it's it's a slightly different thing it's not like the government

838
01:10:48,193 --> 01:10:54,233
needs it. Also, remember, the military industrial complex and the government were aligned previously.

839
01:10:54,553 --> 01:11:00,233
Now we've got an a national proof of weapons network power structure that has no affiliation

840
01:11:00,233 --> 01:11:05,153
with America. You know, China could become the next empire and they're just as good as if America

841
01:11:05,153 --> 01:11:09,693
continues to dominate. It doesn't matter to them. They're hedged in every version. In fact, they,

842
01:11:09,953 --> 01:11:14,513
you know, if there's less profits in America, then they'll reset the world order and move

843
01:11:14,513 --> 01:11:20,973
to multipolarity. And so do they want the government to own Bitcoin? No, they're not

844
01:11:20,973 --> 01:11:27,073
saving the dollar. They don't want to strengthen the dollar. Backing the dollar by Bitcoin or by

845
01:11:27,073 --> 01:11:33,493
building Bitcoin strategic reserves could increase their balance sheet. They would much rather just

846
01:11:33,493 --> 01:11:40,853
use the government to confiscate and then use their own market manipulations to end up with

847
01:11:40,853 --> 01:11:46,813
gold direct. So they want you to own your Bitcoin, but then they want you to put it in one of their

848
01:11:46,813 --> 01:11:51,593
financial weapons of mass destruction rather than protect the government and protect the dollar.

849
01:11:52,073 --> 01:11:57,793
They have no interest in doing that at this stage. They're engineering a strategic weakening

850
01:11:57,793 --> 01:12:02,433
of the dollar right now to push those capital outflows and to break the petrodollar.

851
01:12:02,433 --> 01:12:11,253
now what role does uh the brics nations then and the petrodollar kind of play

852
01:12:11,253 --> 01:12:15,293
in in this because it seems like it's a bunch of countries that kind of hate each other but all

853
01:12:15,293 --> 01:12:20,993
want to keep the control at a certain point so you know what role does the potential of

854
01:12:20,993 --> 01:12:26,093
you know this brics currency that they've been using for international trade allegedly russia

855
01:12:26,093 --> 01:12:32,273
was using bitcoin to get around sanctions uh like how much weight do you take into into that uh

856
01:12:32,273 --> 01:12:38,193
when it comes to the proof of weapons network yeah so bricks aligned around one mission

857
01:12:38,193 --> 01:12:46,273
de-dollarization there was a covert operation to try and fool bricks into creating a unified

858
01:12:46,273 --> 01:12:52,353
currency but they dropped that project because that was a mechanism to turn bricks into the

859
01:12:52,353 --> 01:12:58,033
european union a single unified currency is how you attack the economies and end up controlling

860
01:12:58,033 --> 01:13:03,493
the network through currency wars. And so they didn't launch their single unified currency. They

861
01:13:03,493 --> 01:13:08,593
were going to back it by gold. They looked at distributed ledger technology. They realized that

862
01:13:08,593 --> 01:13:15,813
everyone could mine some tokens every time they contributed some gold and did a resource trade.

863
01:13:15,813 --> 01:13:20,093
But then they realized, how are you going to create decentralized storage of gold?

864
01:13:20,553 --> 01:13:26,013
They said everyone will be incentivized to default. So that project, it was called Units at the time.

865
01:13:26,013 --> 01:13:43,381
They never launched and I think it was the right thing to do But what they did do is political and economic unification around de And so what they essentially did is China because it had the manufacturing base

866
01:13:44,101 --> 01:13:49,781
because it had the rare earth minerals by building up Africa when the IMF was destroying Africa,

867
01:13:50,301 --> 01:13:54,741
by building up the global south when the IMF was destroying the global south.

868
01:13:54,741 --> 01:14:00,601
and because Saudi and the Gulf countries all built their sovereign wealth based upon the

869
01:14:00,601 --> 01:14:10,221
petrodollar, they realized that China was the rising power. America became oil independent.

870
01:14:10,901 --> 01:14:15,401
What does that mean? Oh, the petrodollar is dead because America started competing with

871
01:14:15,401 --> 01:14:24,061
the Gulf countries to export oil and gas. And so they pushed the Ukraine war in order to destroy

872
01:14:24,061 --> 01:14:31,141
Europe, make sure that Russia could no longer import its gas and force Europe onto expensive

873
01:14:31,141 --> 01:14:35,961
oil and expensive gas provided by America and started competing with the Gulf countries.

874
01:14:36,301 --> 01:14:39,761
So the Gulf country where it said, well, where's all my money going to come from?

875
01:14:39,821 --> 01:14:40,641
Oh, it's China.

876
01:14:41,181 --> 01:14:42,441
Who's buying our oil?

877
01:14:42,681 --> 01:14:44,901
Well, Iran is selling its oil and gas to China.

878
01:14:45,441 --> 01:14:47,341
Russia is selling its oil and gas to China.

879
01:14:47,801 --> 01:14:49,561
Saudi is selling its oil and gas to China.

880
01:14:49,901 --> 01:14:51,741
Qatar is selling its oil and gas to China.

881
01:14:51,741 --> 01:14:53,581
And then what are they doing with that money?

882
01:14:53,581 --> 01:15:00,341
They're buying the US. So Trump's going around saying, oh, we've got $17 trillion of investments

883
01:15:00,341 --> 01:15:07,061
coming in. They're buying open AI. They're buying X. They're buying all of the stocks. They're buying

884
01:15:07,061 --> 01:15:13,721
all of the equity-based assets and selling the debt-based assets. They're no longer buying

885
01:15:13,721 --> 01:15:21,041
treasuries. Instead, they're buying equity. So the money's coming from China and the Gulf countries

886
01:15:21,041 --> 01:15:26,341
are buying America and buying Europe. They're putting Europe into distress to acquire them on

887
01:15:26,341 --> 01:15:32,801
the cheap. And then America is selling the pristine assets to the Gulf countries. And so now NVIDIA is

888
01:15:32,801 --> 01:15:37,101
building in the Middle East. NVIDIA is building, you know, the data centers are going into the

889
01:15:37,101 --> 01:15:43,541
Middle East. Why? They got access to the energy and resources. And so what China said is let's

890
01:15:43,541 --> 01:15:49,341
create an allegiance. You know, they want to weaken Europe. We'll let the CIA do their covert

891
01:15:49,341 --> 01:15:56,701
operations and uh you sell your your gas and oil to us we'll buy it we'll keep up um the operation

892
01:15:56,701 --> 01:16:02,061
and we'll prove that sanctions no longer work we'll also de-dollarize and create a network

893
01:16:02,061 --> 01:16:07,341
of transactions that all exist outside the system but we won't do a single unified currency

894
01:16:07,901 --> 01:16:12,781
um and so you know that that that's what they that's what they did and now they're acquiring

895
01:16:12,781 --> 01:16:18,461
the us via the gulf countries the gulf countries are sitting in the middle and what did bricks do

896
01:16:18,461 --> 01:16:25,601
BRICS said, led by China, China said, you know what? Let's end the forever war in the Middle East.

897
01:16:26,321 --> 01:16:30,601
You know, Iran and Israel, you're a puppet for the military industrial complex.

898
01:16:31,061 --> 01:16:36,461
You pretending that you're about to create nuclear and scaring the American people.

899
01:16:36,921 --> 01:16:43,181
You know, we made $10 trillion from the American people over to the American companies as a result

900
01:16:43,181 --> 01:16:46,161
of those fake forever wars and the fake war on terror.

901
01:16:46,741 --> 01:16:49,441
And you were funding all of the groups, ISIS and Al-Qaeda

902
01:16:49,441 --> 01:16:51,001
and all these different groups.

903
01:16:51,001 --> 01:16:54,261
And everyone knows that they were CIA operations now.

904
01:16:54,821 --> 01:16:56,741
The jig is up, you know.

905
01:16:57,301 --> 01:16:59,721
And so now let's end the forever war

906
01:16:59,721 --> 01:17:03,421
and negotiate with the banks on regional stability,

907
01:17:03,941 --> 01:17:06,081
artificial intelligence, data centers,

908
01:17:06,541 --> 01:17:07,801
access to cheap energy.

909
01:17:08,381 --> 01:17:11,661
And so they said, Iran, Saudi Arabia, stop being enemies.

910
01:17:11,661 --> 01:17:17,081
if you want me to buy your oil, then you're going to get on. And so Iran and Saudi Arabia

911
01:17:17,081 --> 01:17:21,221
normalized. It was brokered by China. They announced it and that killed the petrodollar.

912
01:17:21,601 --> 01:17:26,321
And now essentially Israel is being dumped because they were the country for the military

913
01:17:26,321 --> 01:17:31,161
industrial complex to create forever wars, agitate the region, ensure that they would

914
01:17:31,161 --> 01:17:37,021
never unify around their oil resources and eliminate all the competition. So now the GCC

915
01:17:37,021 --> 01:17:43,461
is saying, right, let's turn Israel into a toxic asset. The military escalated and allowed the

916
01:17:43,461 --> 01:17:48,741
events to happen that we've seen over the last two years. And now essentially you've got a

917
01:17:48,741 --> 01:17:58,101
unification between regional blocks, BRICS, GCC, SCO, ASEAN, and they all unified around making sure

918
01:17:58,101 --> 01:18:03,701
they could de-dollarize. Who did they need in order to execute that vision? Remember, this had

919
01:18:03,701 --> 01:18:08,021
already been determined during the Biden administration and prior to that. This has

920
01:18:08,021 --> 01:18:14,201
been a 10-year operation, knowing where America was going and its degeneracy in terms of its excess

921
01:18:14,201 --> 01:18:20,841
valuations, in terms of its drug addictions, homelessness, civil unrest, everything that was

922
01:18:20,841 --> 01:18:28,361
happening across the West. And so they basically said, let's put Trump in, tariff policy. Let's

923
01:18:28,361 --> 01:18:34,061
reset the world order. Let's acquire all of the small businesses in America because they're going

924
01:18:34,061 --> 01:18:39,741
to pay the tariff income. Let's acquire all of the export dependent countries that will go distress

925
01:18:39,741 --> 01:18:45,081
as a result of this and their companies. And let's push the whole world closer to China.

926
01:18:45,301 --> 01:18:50,081
And then Trump can say, we're making America great again and building our manufacturing base.

927
01:18:50,081 --> 01:18:55,161
What is he actually doing? He's building AI in an Orwellian, you know, central bank digital,

928
01:18:55,161 --> 01:19:00,861
or sorry, stablecoin social credit score, while the Americans think that this is about making

929
01:19:00,861 --> 01:19:07,441
America great again. And so, and again, this isn't Trump derangement syndrome. This is Biden

930
01:19:07,441 --> 01:19:13,781
derangement syndrome, Obama derangement syndrome, Clinton derangement syndrome, and Trump derangement

931
01:19:13,781 --> 01:19:19,861
syndrome. This is a well orchestrated uniparty operation. And now we're moving the world to

932
01:19:19,861 --> 01:19:26,181
multipolarity. We should be happy with that. There will be less death, less destruction, less wars.

933
01:19:27,241 --> 01:19:32,761
But the West will be declined and the global South will be able to use their resources

934
01:19:32,761 --> 01:19:38,681
and China will be the manufacturing base. And then there will be a global surveillance state.

935
01:19:38,861 --> 01:19:44,541
You escape it by boycotting the system, owning Bitcoin in self-custody and becoming sovereign

936
01:19:44,541 --> 01:19:49,841
in yourself and stop pretending that politicians give a shit about you because they are rug

937
01:19:49,841 --> 01:19:54,141
pulling you and giving you narratives and lying to you about what they're doing.

938
01:19:56,561 --> 01:19:57,081
Yeah.

939
01:19:57,181 --> 01:20:02,161
So it seems like no matter which party wins at this point, it's all, I mean, not a part

940
01:20:02,161 --> 01:20:07,001
of the plan, but essentially it's, you know, this proof of weapons network, it's going

941
01:20:07,001 --> 01:20:12,801
to reign, I guess, victorious over this government and centralized entity.

942
01:20:12,801 --> 01:20:37,221
It already is victorious. The government's working for the people. That ended decades ago. They financialize, securitize, tokenize, and control the Democrats, the Republicans, the Labor, the conservatives, every party, the opposition, Mandani, anyone. They're part of that. They control all of these different nodes. They're all prostitutes for narratives.

943
01:20:37,221 --> 01:21:01,809
So then why sell us the narrative that Trump is going to do you think like the American people have essentially maybe part of this Bitcoin revolution Why sell us on hey Trump is going to be this anti type of figure to come in and Trump is going to be this anti type of figure to come in And Trump is going to be this guy that is essentially just defeating all of these

944
01:21:01,809 --> 01:21:07,909
narratives when it comes to the overall government. And those narratives being, hey, you know, the

945
01:21:07,909 --> 01:21:12,909
government isn't really working for you. He's going to be a man of the people and all of this.

946
01:21:12,909 --> 01:21:21,129
So why sell us on this that Trump is anti-government in order to kind of continue this facade along?

947
01:21:22,189 --> 01:21:31,129
Because the goal of the network is to continue the facade that you are invested in believing that democracy exists and your vote matters.

948
01:21:32,089 --> 01:21:34,449
Your vote doesn't matter. Your money matters.

949
01:21:35,069 --> 01:21:40,229
The only way to control the network is to impact their share price and to activate and boycott the network.

950
01:21:41,029 --> 01:21:43,829
The only way to combat the Fed is to own your Bitcoin.

951
01:21:44,049 --> 01:21:48,049
The only way to combat BlackRock is to own it in self-custody rather than an ETF.

952
01:21:48,429 --> 01:21:52,029
The only way to combat the banks is to not borrow against your Bitcoin.

953
01:21:52,029 --> 01:22:00,389
The only way to combat the global multinational institutions is to spend local and boycott the large organizations wherever you can.

954
01:22:01,029 --> 01:22:02,389
But what do they need you?

955
01:22:02,469 --> 01:22:06,229
They need you invested in the belief that you're winning.

956
01:22:06,229 --> 01:22:12,929
but every time the same thing happens and you're like oh we got trump we saved the world from

957
01:22:12,929 --> 01:22:18,909
communism and you end up with what we've got and then mandani comes along and the left and the

958
01:22:18,909 --> 01:22:25,689
democrats get to say yes we took on the system and then the the republicans get to say everybody

959
01:22:25,689 --> 01:22:30,949
need leave new york they know that new york was going to be destroyed but now they get to say it's

960
01:22:30,949 --> 01:22:36,129
because it was mandani and it was a muslim takeover and it was the communists and the democrats and the

961
01:22:36,129 --> 01:22:42,709
lefty radicals. And so they execute the vision and they give you a narrative. As soon as you cheer on,

962
01:22:43,209 --> 01:22:49,549
yes, we got Trump. You've bought into another two years of believing that something will change.

963
01:22:49,709 --> 01:22:53,289
And then you go to the midterm elections. When you get to the midterm elections,

964
01:22:53,289 --> 01:22:58,569
the Democrats say, hey, we're gaining power. We're gaining something. And then they start to think

965
01:22:58,569 --> 01:23:04,369
they've got victorious. We got Mundani and he's going to look after us. And now they bought in

966
01:23:04,369 --> 01:23:10,349
And then you've bought into fighting against the Democrats. And that carries on as a merry-go-round

967
01:23:10,349 --> 01:23:16,409
of distraction to make you think that the middle management, the only reason my life is fucked

968
01:23:16,409 --> 01:23:20,989
right now is because of you, Trump. Or the only reason I had to leave New York is because of you,

969
01:23:21,089 --> 01:23:25,629
Mundani. These are customer service. They're customer service, they're middle management

970
01:23:25,629 --> 01:23:32,089
for a greater power structure. And they want you to believe that it's communism and capitalism and

971
01:23:32,089 --> 01:23:36,689
the Republicans are the capitalists and the Democrats are the communists and the socialists.

972
01:23:37,509 --> 01:23:45,049
And meanwhile, this is controlled by banks. It's a financial oligarchy and it is consolidating

973
01:23:45,049 --> 01:23:50,989
power. And the longer you buy into the system, the longer you will be a debt slave to the system.

974
01:23:50,989 --> 01:23:57,149
You have to opt out. You have to beat BlackRock. You have to own assets and you have to sell the

975
01:23:57,149 --> 01:24:03,649
ideology that they're feeding you. Because as long as you believe the lie, you won't take the

976
01:24:03,649 --> 01:24:08,489
actions that you need to take in order to protect yourself. It's all a lie. I'm sorry to give you

977
01:24:08,489 --> 01:24:13,749
the red pill. But the red pill, the antidote to the red pill is the orange pill. When you

978
01:24:13,749 --> 01:24:18,689
understand how the world really works, and you're no longer a useful idiot for all the wars, death

979
01:24:18,689 --> 01:24:23,429
and destruction that the military industrial complex and the financial industrial complex

980
01:24:23,429 --> 01:24:29,429
are creating in order to pop up your dollar, which is create this K-shaped economy, which is

981
01:24:29,429 --> 01:24:36,269
extracting more and more resources from the average American and sending them into this nightmare

982
01:24:36,269 --> 01:24:41,229
and believing that their system is better than everyone else and saying, hey, it's the Europeans.

983
01:24:41,449 --> 01:24:48,289
They control everything. It's the banks of the Europeans. It's the Chinese communists. It's all

984
01:24:48,289 --> 01:24:54,749
narrative lies in order to justify and hide from you how the proof of weapons network really works

985
01:24:54,749 --> 01:25:03,029
wow this is an incredible situation our incredible conversation and it seems like the only solution

986
01:25:03,029 --> 01:25:08,409
to all of this is just bitcoin and self-custody so that's our that's our revolution right there

987
01:25:08,409 --> 01:25:12,709
so i absolutely love you breaking this down all with you simon i'm gonna have to have you on in

988
01:25:12,709 --> 01:25:19,569
a few months again to keep on this conversation. But I'm going to leave some off, some more to chew

989
01:25:19,569 --> 01:25:24,369
for the next conversation. But Simon, why don't you tell people where they can find out more about

990
01:25:24,369 --> 01:25:29,089
you and see more of your work? Because I'm subscribed to this newsletter now, man, and it's

991
01:25:29,089 --> 01:25:35,089
outstanding. So why don't you tell people about that? Yeah, sure. You know, Bitcoin has blessed me.

992
01:25:35,089 --> 01:25:39,869
Um, you know, I, I, I live in the Bitcoin and self custody world.

993
01:25:39,869 --> 01:25:46,909
Um, and, uh, I, I want people to have a simple solution because complexity is, is the, is

994
01:25:46,909 --> 01:25:50,849
the enemy, you know, and, uh, I want people to have a simple solution.

995
01:25:50,849 --> 01:25:54,929
And I've been saying this, this same thing for 14 years, ever since Bitcoin was $3.

996
01:25:55,209 --> 01:25:59,749
And I documented the whole journey on my YouTube channel from speaking at the first Bitcoin

997
01:25:59,749 --> 01:26:00,809
conference to today.

998
01:26:00,809 --> 01:26:14,809
And every single week I go live for this week in Bitcoin, this week in macro, this week in geopolitics. And all I do is follow the money every single week and show you how what they're saying is completely opposite to where their money is going.

999
01:26:15,549 --> 01:26:23,369
And so when you follow the money, you start to notice these patterns. It's a journey. It takes time. So I publish that on my YouTube channel, Simon Dixon.

1000
01:26:23,369 --> 01:26:32,229
I back that up on my blog simondixon.com and I give live on X regularly so you can follow me on

1001
01:26:32,229 --> 01:26:42,889
at simondixon twit. So I'm easy to find but the antidote is absolutely Bitcoin in self-custody.

1002
01:26:43,389 --> 01:26:48,629
Own more Bitcoin this month than last month. Do that for a minimum of four years. Avoid shit

1003
01:26:48,629 --> 01:26:54,549
coinery, avoid leverage wherever you can. And after four years, come back to me and say,

1004
01:26:54,689 --> 01:26:59,169
do I really, would I have done better if I had bought shit coins? Would I have done better if

1005
01:26:59,169 --> 01:27:03,869
I was trading and using leverage? Would I have done better if I bought Nvidia? Would I have done

1006
01:27:03,869 --> 01:27:09,129
better if I did any of those things? Every single person that I've put this challenge to, they come

1007
01:27:09,129 --> 01:27:14,649
back to me in four years and they ignored price and they beat the proof of weapons network.

1008
01:27:14,649 --> 01:27:17,089
and some of those are billionaires, millionaires,

1009
01:27:17,149 --> 01:27:18,709
and they've changed their life completely.

1010
01:27:19,189 --> 01:27:20,529
And anybody can do that.

1011
01:27:20,669 --> 01:27:21,729
Spend less than you earn,

1012
01:27:22,269 --> 01:27:23,709
save the difference in Bitcoin,

1013
01:27:24,149 --> 01:27:26,469
own more Bitcoin this month than the previous month,

1014
01:27:26,849 --> 01:27:28,449
learn how to self-custody it

1015
01:27:28,449 --> 01:27:30,549
and do that every month for four years

1016
01:27:30,549 --> 01:27:31,949
and then come back to me on X

1017
01:27:31,949 --> 01:27:33,909
and tell me whether I was an idiot

1018
01:27:33,909 --> 01:27:35,309
for asking you to do it.

1019
01:27:37,289 --> 01:27:39,049
Yeah, I don't think you will be.

1020
01:27:39,229 --> 01:27:40,769
So I'll put all that in the show notes.

1021
01:27:40,769 --> 01:27:43,369
Simon, thank you so much for your time.

1022
01:27:43,449 --> 01:27:44,329
You've been very generous.

1023
01:27:44,649 --> 01:27:47,109
And this was an absolute firecracker of a conversation.

1024
01:27:47,109 --> 01:27:48,309
So I can't wait to put it out.

1025
01:27:48,409 --> 01:27:49,629
So Simon, thanks so much.

1026
01:27:49,709 --> 01:27:50,349
Thanks for having me.

1027
01:27:51,609 --> 01:27:56,149
