WEBVTT 00:06.410 --> 00:13.070 The Minerotopia Weekly News segment is sponsored by Wizardswap.io, a non-Custodial cryptocurrency 00:13.490 --> 00:13.890 exchange. 00:15.550 --> 00:15.950 Tony. 00:16.570 --> 00:17.090 Hey guys. 00:18.050 --> 00:18.310 Happy new year. 00:18.310 --> 00:18.470 Happy new year. 00:18.590 --> 00:18.610 What's up? 00:19.350 --> 00:19.990 Hey, good. 00:20.150 -->

bicep veins are popping. 00:28.350 --> 00:28.710 Oh, yeah. 00:28.790 --> 00:29.170 All right. 00:29.270 --> 00:29.790 That's a good sign. 00:31.030 --> 00:32.870 I was listening and I was like, oh, shit. 00:34.510 --> 00:34.910 Yeah. 00:35.130 --> 00:36.210 I don't even do bicep, man. 00:36.430 --> 00:37.690 I don't even do bicep. 00:37.870 --> 00:38.530 Well, I do pull-ups. 00:38.830 --> 00:39.430 I do pull-ups. 00:39.910 --> 00:40.110 Yep. 00:42.290 --> 00:45.210 Yeah, I'm basically a pull-ups and push-ups guy at this point. 00:45.470 --> 00:48.710 I don't really have too much time to hang out in the gym. 00:49.650 --> 00:53.330 I try to do a little short sprints every once in a while. 00:55.330 --> 00:55.910 But yeah, man. 00:56.130 --> 00:57.230 You're pretty fit, dude. 00:57.230 --> 01:00.230 How's your health these days? 01:01.470 --> 01:02.610 Oh, it's good. 01:02.910 --> 01:03.450 You working out? 01:04.030 --> 01:04.650 Yeah, yeah. 01:04.750 --> 01:08.190 I'm still like, this was the first week because I had some long, long injuries that I've been 01:08.190 --> 01:08.570 dealing with. 01:08.770 --> 01:12.930 So this was the first week, which I've been able to actually do push-ups and pull-ups. 01:13.770 --> 01:14.930 What kind of injuries you got? 01:15.750 --> 01:16.650 Oh, like long time. 01:16.970 --> 01:17.330 Deadlifting. 01:18.030 --> 01:18.790 It's just borrowlifting. 01:18.790 --> 01:19.530 Oh, okay. 01:20.050 --> 01:20.230 Yeah. 01:20.630 --> 01:21.190 Like really bad. 01:21.790 --> 01:25.370 And I've been doing ice baths, which helped a lot. 01:25.370 --> 01:27.690 So I go in like five minutes. 01:28.690 --> 01:35.810 And if you just feel good, like zero soreness and mentally, like your dopamine goes up to 01:35.810 --> 01:38.890 100%, four to six hours after you do them. 01:38.890 --> 01:40.350 There's so, so many benefits. 01:40.690 --> 01:42.450 So I highly recommend ice baths to people. 01:42.790 --> 01:45.350 And that'll make you mentally resilient like whenever. 01:45.710 --> 01:46.830 Where are you doing that? 01:46.910 --> 01:50.350 You're doing that at your own place or you're like going to a place to do the ice baths? 01:50.530 --> 01:52.710 I used to buy the ice and do it in my ice bath. 01:52.710 --> 01:53.930 In my top. 01:55.690 --> 01:56.110 Oh my God. 01:56.490 --> 01:57.850 Which becomes a nice stuff. 01:58.250 --> 01:59.410 Which becomes a nice stuff. 02:00.130 --> 02:07.850 But so in Romania, it's cold, but not, they can't stream water so cold because the pipes 02:07.850 --> 02:08.450 are going to freeze. 02:08.990 --> 02:10.010 And in Florida, it's too warm. 02:10.370 --> 02:15.930 So I go to my gym here and it's pretty much like 40 Fahrenheit, almost to the freezing 02:15.930 --> 02:16.330 point. 02:16.590 --> 02:18.550 So it's really, really cold. 02:19.610 --> 02:19.750 Yeah. 02:20.270 --> 02:25.930 I do the cold, I do the cold shower thing or I always end my shower with like as cold 02:25.930 --> 02:26.590 as it can get. 02:26.810 --> 02:29.210 Oh, it's cold in New York. 02:29.210 --> 02:29.770 So yeah. 02:30.450 --> 02:30.870 Yeah. 02:32.150 --> 02:33.810 I would do the ice baths. 02:33.830 --> 02:35.150 I don't know, but they, I don't know. 02:35.230 --> 02:37.350 I think I do feel great. 02:37.570 --> 02:40.850 Like I love, I love jumping into just like the cold sea in the winter. 02:41.210 --> 02:41.510 I'll do that. 02:41.870 --> 02:47.490 Not on a regular basis, but like once or twice during the season. 02:48.190 --> 02:51.630 I'll try to jump into a frigid, frigid waters. 02:52.330 --> 02:53.370 There's nothing better. 02:53.530 --> 02:54.050 Oh my God. 02:54.510 --> 02:55.010 Exactly. 02:56.130 --> 02:56.310 Right. 02:57.170 --> 02:59.950 But it's different than an ice than going in a shower. 03:00.170 --> 03:01.030 It's totally different. 03:01.650 --> 03:02.830 I guess it's really, really cold. 03:02.930 --> 03:07.370 But if you get into an ice bath, which is almost at a point of freezing, 03:08.190 --> 03:15.030 just mentally and, but it has so many benefits like just mentally and 03:15.030 --> 03:15.530 physically. 03:15.530 --> 03:17.370 And again, like you can work out really hard. 03:17.650 --> 03:18.850 Like this, the world's strongest man. 03:19.370 --> 03:22.130 And then I'll end on my, my little rent on ice baths, 03:22.130 --> 03:23.270 but the world's strongest man. 03:23.490 --> 03:25.650 He does ice baths after every single training. 03:26.690 --> 03:27.130 Bjornsson. 03:27.370 --> 03:30.530 If you know him and then he has zero soreness and Larry wheels 03:30.530 --> 03:31.610 and all these guys. 03:32.330 --> 03:32.770 Yeah. 03:33.210 --> 03:35.790 I can really start doing that, but I've also heard like, 03:35.830 --> 03:37.630 like being things though too, right? 03:37.710 --> 03:40.130 Because it just like, I don't know. 03:40.370 --> 03:42.450 It boosts your adrenaline. 03:42.690 --> 03:43.530 Like it feels great. 03:43.530 --> 03:47.450 Like the feeling is like really from kind of an adrenaline rush, 03:48.190 --> 03:52.770 but is it good to like give yourself those adrenaline rushes on a 03:52.770 --> 03:53.470 daily basis? 03:54.270 --> 03:54.570 I don't know. 03:54.930 --> 03:57.670 I could totally, I could totally get into the whole ice bath. 03:58.530 --> 03:59.310 I know. 03:59.570 --> 04:01.930 I'm always, I'm always down for the adrenaline rush. 04:02.750 --> 04:03.910 But yeah, I don't know. 04:04.290 --> 04:04.570 I guess. 04:05.470 --> 04:10.170 It's like they compared like cocaine and stuff like that. 04:10.170 --> 04:16.270 But it's more like, it's not like a surge and then a huge drop, 04:16.430 --> 04:17.330 like a spike in the drop. 04:17.510 --> 04:18.650 It's more like a sustained. 04:20.190 --> 04:20.270 Yeah. 04:21.350 --> 04:24.230 Andrew Huberman did like two hours just on this alone and 04:25.710 --> 04:29.430 yeah, if you can, I think, I think you'd love it for sure. 04:29.570 --> 04:33.150 And just, you just get out and you just feel so clear 04:33.150 --> 04:35.790 mentally and you feel like unstoppable. 04:36.350 --> 04:36.990 It's crazy. 04:37.650 --> 04:41.130 And the sauna too, obviously is a fantastic thing to try to 04:41.130 --> 04:44.470 incorporate in your life for, you know, especially cleansing 04:44.470 --> 04:45.230 yourself, right? 04:45.330 --> 04:46.670 Of like the heavy metals and stuff. 04:47.550 --> 04:49.370 That's kind of one of the ways you can do it. 04:49.590 --> 04:51.630 But, you know, sweat, sweating it out. 04:52.690 --> 04:53.770 I don't do it. 04:54.930 --> 04:55.330 Yeah. 04:55.530 --> 04:58.070 And especially if you're in this fight with Monero and 04:58.070 --> 04:59.710 for freedom, you've got to be strong physically. 05:00.550 --> 05:01.790 Hey, you do, man. 05:02.230 --> 05:02.570 You do. 05:03.370 --> 05:05.830 You got the, you need the, I go around here. 05:05.830 --> 05:09.910 It's the battle of the frickin' century, man. 05:10.630 --> 05:11.050 For sure. 05:11.490 --> 05:16.710 We are up against some, some very strong, powerful, dark 05:17.650 --> 05:20.790 forces that do not want Monero to succeed. 05:21.090 --> 05:24.870 I mean, I am pretty, I'm pretty convinced of that. 05:26.870 --> 05:29.870 But they also, I don't know, some of them maybe do want 05:29.870 --> 05:32.590 it kind of to succeed because they need something they 05:32.590 --> 05:34.810 can use too, to do their, their sketchy stuff. 05:36.110 --> 05:37.490 We got another tip here. 05:38.310 --> 05:39.750 BRJ tipped 50 cents. 05:39.890 --> 05:42.530 Heidi and Tobias crypto tips are constantly giving 05:42.530 --> 05:46.270 shadows to XMR with 224,000 followers. 05:46.450 --> 05:47.090 They might be good people. 05:47.210 --> 05:47.950 Yeah, for sure. 05:48.210 --> 05:50.810 I like messaged with them on Twitter recently. 05:50.810 --> 05:52.010 I said, come on the show. 05:52.210 --> 05:53.690 They were, when they were talking about Monero, 05:53.790 --> 05:55.770 they're like, yeah, but then I don't know, 05:55.790 --> 05:56.190 never happened. 05:58.010 --> 06:00.090 But yeah, it would be better if I went on their 06:00.090 --> 06:00.690 show, right? 06:00.690 --> 06:03.890 Like them coming on my show won't really help Monero. 06:04.050 --> 06:05.910 If I go on their show or, you know, 06:06.050 --> 06:08.070 one of us goes on to their show, 06:08.630 --> 06:10.990 that would be a big help because now we're talking 06:10.990 --> 06:13.010 to their 224,000 followers. 06:14.670 --> 06:17.210 So, yeah, try to, try to make that happen. 06:17.330 --> 06:17.670 Good points. 06:17.970 --> 06:18.770 That's a huge following. 06:20.310 --> 06:23.630 But yeah, let's, let's get into the, the new section. 06:24.050 --> 06:27.810 So let me share my, my screen. 06:30.230 --> 06:30.630 Okay. 06:30.930 --> 06:32.870 And talks are done. 06:33.010 --> 06:33.450 Okay, perfect. 06:34.350 --> 06:34.750 Okay. 06:34.870 --> 06:36.970 And before we start guys, like and share, 06:37.090 --> 06:38.130 this helps a lot obviously. 06:38.330 --> 06:39.930 And then I'm watching the YouTube comments as well. 06:41.530 --> 06:43.610 So if you have any questions, if you want to add 06:43.610 --> 06:46.050 even a link that you guys want us to go through 06:46.050 --> 06:47.930 right now, or if you have any questions about 06:47.930 --> 06:49.290 what we're going through right now, then you 06:49.290 --> 06:52.290 can go ahead and write that in the YouTube chat. 06:52.510 --> 06:54.930 I'm watching that one specifically now. 06:56.770 --> 06:57.770 Overquick conference. 06:58.310 --> 06:59.470 Have you ever bought your tickets? 06:59.970 --> 07:00.550 Use a code. 07:01.710 --> 07:02.210 2024. 07:04.050 --> 07:05.050 Tux 24. 07:05.710 --> 07:06.570 I tried body. 07:06.690 --> 07:07.630 I forgot body's code. 07:09.450 --> 07:11.110 I don't think it's body 24 body. 07:11.450 --> 07:12.550 No, it should be. 07:13.230 --> 07:13.990 It's not body 21. 07:14.770 --> 07:15.290 I tried. 07:17.130 --> 07:17.430 Hmm. 07:17.970 --> 07:18.430 Body. 07:20.050 --> 07:20.550 Yeah. 07:21.050 --> 07:22.170 But body has a code. 07:22.330 --> 07:23.950 So body if you can write it down for people. 07:23.950 --> 07:25.530 There's lab 24. 07:25.950 --> 07:27.390 One dash 800. 07:27.690 --> 07:29.150 I think. 07:30.050 --> 07:31.050 There's a lot of codes. 07:31.470 --> 07:33.330 So use all of them. 07:33.770 --> 07:37.010 Just use 20, Tony, Tony, Tony for the hour. 07:37.170 --> 07:37.910 Just use that one. 07:38.510 --> 07:38.770 Yeah. 07:39.910 --> 07:40.510 Okay. 07:40.650 --> 07:43.270 So let's talk about the first thing for this week. 07:43.570 --> 07:46.470 Japanese authorities arrested a gang of 18 scammers by 07:46.470 --> 07:47.850 analyzing our transactions. 07:49.430 --> 07:51.070 Now let's actually go into. 07:51.830 --> 07:54.170 The article itself from coin telegraph. 07:54.530 --> 07:57.790 So the group of scammers have been under investigations since 07:57.790 --> 07:59.890 August by Japan's new cyber crime. 08:00.410 --> 08:00.750 Unit. 08:01.070 --> 08:03.810 And essentially what we're going to discover by going through 08:03.810 --> 08:05.190 this is that. 08:06.270 --> 08:08.690 Actually, they didn't mention it, but usually what happens is 08:08.690 --> 08:11.370 that it's not that they cracked Monero and they discovered 08:11.370 --> 08:13.890 the malicious things that they've done with it. 08:13.950 --> 08:15.410 It's usually pure. 08:16.670 --> 08:19.210 Like just the people probably. 08:19.970 --> 08:23.490 Using Monero putting it back on some centralized exchange, 08:23.710 --> 08:26.130 which is tied to their credit card or their card. 08:26.390 --> 08:27.030 And there we go. 08:27.110 --> 08:28.590 And the money goes into their account, 08:28.730 --> 08:31.190 which is identified to them or probably some, 08:31.190 --> 08:34.010 some stupid way like this in which they messed up. 08:34.130 --> 08:35.750 But here's a graph. 08:36.050 --> 08:38.610 And if you're watching on YouTube, you can, you can see it, 08:38.650 --> 08:43.830 but just shows quarter free statistics and graphs on 08:44.370 --> 08:46.010 security incidents by chain. 08:46.010 --> 08:51.710 You see Ethereum, Bitcoin, BSC, Cosmos, 08:51.990 --> 08:52.470 or it's Monero. 08:52.770 --> 08:53.590 I don't see Monero. 08:53.770 --> 08:55.130 That's, that's quite odd. 08:55.270 --> 08:57.490 Well, yeah, that's because you can't, you can track it. 08:57.570 --> 09:00.210 So it's a really short article on this, 09:01.470 --> 09:06.010 but what I can also mention is that the transaction 09:06.570 --> 09:10.910 total about 100 million yen, which is $670,000. 09:11.530 --> 09:15.390 So they actually empty people on the subreddit on the 09:15.390 --> 09:16.330 post mentioned this too. 09:17.550 --> 09:20.370 Whenever some criminals are apprehended and they use Monero 09:20.370 --> 09:23.330 this way or another, the news must always be phrased in a way 09:23.330 --> 09:26.370 that it makes Monero seem easily traceable by authorities. 09:26.570 --> 09:28.950 Well, the truth is always that it's not Monero, 09:29.110 --> 09:32.650 which failed, but the back upset practiced by these criminals. 09:33.270 --> 09:34.790 So if you ever hear stuff like this, 09:35.410 --> 09:37.790 it doesn't mean that the correct Monero just means that 09:38.270 --> 09:43.670 the criminal is just, just did some bad upset because of, 09:43.670 --> 09:47.090 I don't know, they're not, they're just not, 09:49.010 --> 09:50.090 they just didn't care. 09:50.290 --> 09:51.770 I don't know. 09:53.430 --> 09:54.950 Now let's move on. 09:55.270 --> 09:58.910 Let's talk about Sailor. 09:59.090 --> 10:01.810 So pretty much if you're paranoid, 10:01.950 --> 10:03.490 you're paranoid crypto anarchist, 10:03.550 --> 10:05.550 if you hold your own keys and don't trust the government. 10:06.230 --> 10:08.330 That's what he said in this interview. 10:08.490 --> 10:12.450 So let's, let's watch it, but according to Sailor, 10:12.450 --> 10:13.630 just trust your government. 10:14.210 --> 10:15.570 You don't need to call your own keys. 10:15.870 --> 10:20.450 Just use some central exchange or use some bank to hold your Bitcoin 10:20.450 --> 10:23.090 and you're going to be fine. 10:23.210 --> 10:28.230 And she made some good points about what happened to gold in the 20th century. 10:30.670 --> 10:34.070 So let's just watch this video and then we'll comment a bit more. 10:35.810 --> 10:38.130 If there is more Bitcoin, 10:38.130 --> 10:40.990 Bitcoin's held with these third party custodians. 10:41.290 --> 10:49.250 What risk does that pose having greater supply held by fewer large institutions? 10:49.890 --> 10:53.970 Does that increase the risk of seizure and confiscation like we've seen with gold? 10:54.290 --> 10:57.010 And is that not exactly what Bitcoiners don't want to happen? 10:57.550 --> 10:58.690 No, I think it's the opposite. 10:59.030 --> 11:04.490 I think that when the Bitcoin is held by a bunch of crypto anarchists 11:05.050 --> 11:09.310 who aren't regulated entities, who don't acknowledge government 11:09.310 --> 11:13.250 or don't acknowledge taxes or don't acknowledge reporting requirements, 11:13.930 --> 11:15.610 that increases the risk of seizure. 11:16.250 --> 11:19.070 You have an OG crypto community that's very hardcore about it, 11:19.290 --> 11:21.730 but if you look at where all the money is, 11:21.890 --> 11:26.830 99.9% of the money is actually in the traditional economy. 11:27.050 --> 11:28.230 If you consider the Great Depression, 11:28.430 --> 11:29.970 I mean people thought that their gold was safe 11:29.970 --> 11:32.110 and banks until the executive order of 1933. 11:32.810 --> 11:34.230 We're not entirely safe. 11:34.390 --> 11:36.950 I mean, I know that's kind of a wild thing to suggest may happen again, 11:36.970 --> 11:40.770 but history does repeat itself, so Bitcoin wouldn't be entirely safe. 11:40.950 --> 11:46.270 People say that, but mostly it's paranoid crypto anarchists that say that. 11:48.050 --> 11:51.910 Because it's a myth and a trope that goes on over and over again. 11:52.410 --> 11:54.810 But first of all, he didn't really seize the gold. 11:54.970 --> 11:56.610 People voluntarily turned in the gold. 11:56.890 --> 11:58.630 They didn't go and kick in everybody's door, 11:58.790 --> 12:00.430 arrest them, shoot them and take their gold. 12:00.430 --> 12:01.270 That never happened. 12:02.250 --> 12:04.290 Is the United States on the Bitcoin standard? 12:05.070 --> 12:05.890 Maybe we will be safe. 12:06.190 --> 12:07.830 But the point really is we're not. 12:08.530 --> 12:11.710 It's totally not a reasonable comparison. 12:12.390 --> 12:18.750 People have these inflammatory tropes or inflammatory memes that they use. 12:19.130 --> 12:21.550 And it's like I say that because I want you to give me your money. 12:24.230 --> 12:29.430 If you don't trust the bank, then you'll buy my hardware wallet. 12:29.430 --> 12:33.450 If you don't trust this government, you'll move to my country 12:33.450 --> 12:35.050 and you'll buy a passport from me. 12:35.330 --> 12:40.610 That's the kind of fear mongering to get you to give me your money, right? 12:40.970 --> 12:44.890 And I use it to sell you a gun, to sell you a hardware wallet, 12:45.050 --> 12:47.870 to sell you an account, to sell you a financial advisor, 12:48.170 --> 12:49.110 to sell you an insurance. 12:49.590 --> 12:51.710 Or to sell you Bitcoin because what? 12:52.950 --> 12:55.050 God, what is doing with all this? 12:55.050 --> 12:56.670 You guys suck the Charlottes and holy shit. 12:56.670 --> 13:01.130 You guys like a status operative. 13:01.630 --> 13:06.310 Yeah, the most like, oh my God, I know people's blood boil when they hear this. 13:06.690 --> 13:12.830 Like the most annoying part about this is that he's, like Tuck said, 13:13.010 --> 13:14.650 he is clearly the charlatan. 13:14.750 --> 13:18.790 And here he is essentially trying to call the crypto anarchists the charlatans. 13:20.110 --> 13:23.510 He's saying like, oh, they're just spreading these memes out. 13:23.510 --> 13:27.310 They're fear mongering because they want you to use their hardware wallet. 13:27.450 --> 13:29.150 They want you to store your key. 13:29.230 --> 13:30.450 Like that's the scam. 13:30.770 --> 13:34.330 The scammers are the people that are trying to get you to use crypto 13:34.330 --> 13:37.450 correctly and hold your own keys that are trying to scare you 13:37.450 --> 13:39.990 into using crypto peer-to-peer. 13:40.150 --> 13:43.710 Those are the scammers, not Michael Saylor, the billionaire 13:44.470 --> 13:51.130 who has just like, just like, he's basically a snake soil salesman. 13:51.130 --> 13:52.750 He's been from day one. 13:53.050 --> 13:56.150 Yeah, there's like no reason to believe he's not like a Fed op 13:56.150 --> 13:58.250 or just like a big banks bird, you know. 13:59.310 --> 14:03.810 But now he's not like, now he's sitting here and like attacking the crypto. 14:03.810 --> 14:07.830 The tights turn so much like over the course of the sale, 14:08.110 --> 14:09.470 the sailorism of Bitcoin. 14:09.930 --> 14:12.730 At first it started out as like, he was kind of like, yeah, 14:12.970 --> 14:15.470 Bitcoin's going to become, and you stand up, you're going to use it. 14:15.510 --> 14:18.550 And then it turned into, oh, Bitcoin just has to store value. 14:18.550 --> 14:21.750 And now it's like, well, Bitcoin, do you really need to hold your own Bitcoin? 14:22.210 --> 14:24.330 You know, you're paranoid if you're going to hold your own Bitcoin. 14:24.770 --> 14:25.550 It's like crazy. 14:27.710 --> 14:28.110 Insane. 14:28.390 --> 14:29.570 I'll sell you something. 14:29.870 --> 14:30.290 Cake wallet. 14:30.530 --> 14:30.910 It's free. 14:32.870 --> 14:33.670 Yeah, exactly. 14:34.750 --> 14:36.070 Your keys are coins, baby. 14:36.750 --> 14:37.890 He would call you a scammer. 14:38.630 --> 14:41.350 You're trying to scare people out of using the traditional banks. 14:41.350 --> 14:43.330 I'm trying to scam people by using something for free. 14:43.590 --> 14:44.090 Yeah, that's right. 14:44.710 --> 14:46.170 But who's the bigger scammer actually? 14:46.170 --> 14:50.470 Because so he's okay, like say people are actually money on the wallets and stuff like that, 14:50.510 --> 14:54.470 but he's making a lot more money by having billions of dollars invested in Bitcoin 14:54.470 --> 14:58.090 and getting the large institutions to hold a large amount of it, 14:58.090 --> 15:00.970 which drives the price up, which drives his own Bitcoin price up. 15:01.350 --> 15:04.550 So, and she made some very good points. 15:04.890 --> 15:11.510 So yeah, it's, it's, yeah, it's this sailorism like Tuck said, it's crazy. 15:12.330 --> 15:13.210 YouTube comments. 15:14.450 --> 15:15.890 Mr. 1024 waits. 15:15.930 --> 15:17.410 The sailor is anti second amendment. 15:18.070 --> 15:20.550 He's anti freedom. 15:21.430 --> 15:22.810 Paper vigilante, big joke. 15:22.970 --> 15:25.070 That's all of it puts on MSTR. 15:27.190 --> 15:27.630 Yeah. 15:28.470 --> 15:29.430 Yeah, that's insane. 15:30.050 --> 15:33.710 Yeah, I'm sure, I'm sure body would, would like to say a comment or two. 15:33.810 --> 15:35.530 Maybe when he comes up and does this price report, 15:35.650 --> 15:38.130 if you want to do that comment on all this. 15:39.810 --> 15:42.010 If this doesn't tell you that Bitcoin is hijacked, 15:42.130 --> 15:45.930 I don't know what was the fact that this guy is like the, the big, 15:45.970 --> 15:47.790 the big Bitcoin person that everyone knows about. 15:48.690 --> 15:52.490 It's amazing though, like there's all these people that are trapped in, 15:52.490 --> 15:53.470 in it though, right? 15:53.610 --> 15:56.310 And they are, they'll just continue to go along with it. 15:56.350 --> 15:59.250 Cause the, you know, this has been the prediction from day one 15:59.250 --> 16:03.870 when we started to see this narrative that the number go up narrative. 16:04.470 --> 16:06.490 And so even if people are sitting there and they're like, 16:06.490 --> 16:10.170 uh, you know, he's, he's, he's kind of wrong. 16:10.430 --> 16:11.690 You know, I should be holding my own. 16:11.810 --> 16:14.730 We'll just go along with it because they want to see the price of Bitcoin go up. 16:15.470 --> 16:17.270 So they're like, yeah, go sail her. 16:18.050 --> 16:18.610 Destroy Bitcoin. 16:19.150 --> 16:19.670 Yep. 16:20.110 --> 16:20.910 They want to maintain followers. 16:21.290 --> 16:23.630 Bitcoin goes up in fiat value where I'm winning. 16:24.390 --> 16:24.490 Yep. 16:25.670 --> 16:30.650 Massive protest outside of the Bitcoin 2025 Las Vegas convention. 16:31.270 --> 16:33.190 Anti sailor protest. 16:33.990 --> 16:35.150 What is this? 16:36.570 --> 16:37.890 This is the Bitcoin conference. 16:38.150 --> 16:39.870 It's in, it's in May next year. 16:40.290 --> 16:40.730 Okay. 16:41.150 --> 16:44.510 Las Vegas is saying to go protest like outside anti sailor. 16:44.670 --> 16:47.350 Maybe we'll have to do the Monerotopia down the block. 16:47.550 --> 16:48.130 Like we did in Miami. 16:49.010 --> 16:49.890 Oh yeah. 16:51.130 --> 16:51.730 Yeah. 16:52.670 --> 16:52.950 Yeah. 16:54.970 --> 16:55.930 Moving on. 16:56.310 --> 16:57.870 So movie featuring, that's cool. 16:58.190 --> 17:02.330 Movie featuring Monero playing in the San Francisco Bay area this Sunday. 17:02.330 --> 17:06.190 So if you close go, 17:06.430 --> 17:10.790 but also if you come down to Mexico city on November 14th through conference, 17:10.910 --> 17:12.990 they're going to have their Mexican premiere. 17:14.030 --> 17:14.470 Yeah. 17:14.550 --> 17:17.470 We'll be playing it in a theater across the street from the venue. 17:17.590 --> 17:18.110 Super cool. 17:18.330 --> 17:19.090 Thursday evening. 17:19.810 --> 17:20.430 That's badass. 17:20.830 --> 17:21.250 That's awesome. 17:24.410 --> 17:27.790 Now, when I saw this, I, I thought it was a high generated. 17:27.970 --> 17:28.770 I thought it was fake. 17:28.990 --> 17:31.110 I saw it just when I woke up and 17:31.110 --> 17:31.770 I thought it was fake. 17:32.570 --> 17:34.830 But Joe Rogan actually got an interview, 17:35.190 --> 17:37.090 a podcast with Donald Trump. 17:37.430 --> 17:38.230 It's almost three hours. 17:39.430 --> 17:41.890 So I was excited when Elon Musk came, came on. 17:42.010 --> 17:44.350 I think he was only on for an hour, an hour and a half, 17:44.450 --> 17:45.110 maybe more, whatever. 17:45.290 --> 17:46.110 But this one is long. 17:46.610 --> 17:47.950 And without Donald Trump, 17:48.050 --> 17:51.510 I've only listened to about 30 minutes of it so far. 17:51.610 --> 17:53.510 But I'm sure it's packed of stuff. 17:53.810 --> 17:54.150 Yeah. 17:54.950 --> 17:58.270 If you could go to like the 41 minute mark. 17:59.850 --> 18:02.690 Um, you know, this is kind of kind of a little slightly relevant 18:02.690 --> 18:06.070 where he talks about Rogan asked him about like eliminating 18:07.330 --> 18:08.090 income tax. 18:08.350 --> 18:10.090 So I think this is, this is going. 18:10.490 --> 18:10.910 Oh yeah. 18:11.190 --> 18:11.270 Yeah. 18:11.630 --> 18:12.710 Go ahead and play that. 18:12.750 --> 18:13.850 Is that 41 minute? 18:14.870 --> 18:15.690 I'm not sure. 18:15.810 --> 18:17.210 I've seen that minute clip. 18:17.650 --> 18:17.730 Yeah. 18:17.730 --> 18:19.710 It's like around the 41 minute mark, I think. 18:20.490 --> 18:20.890 Word. 18:21.030 --> 18:23.930 I've said this from the last couple of weeks in the dictionary 18:23.930 --> 18:27.690 today and any is the word tariff. 18:27.910 --> 18:29.610 It's more beautiful than love. 18:29.890 --> 18:31.170 It's more beautiful than it is. 18:31.410 --> 18:32.750 It's the most beautiful word. 18:33.390 --> 18:37.090 This country can become rich with the use, 18:37.290 --> 18:39.130 the proper use of tariffs. 18:39.450 --> 18:43.070 It'll keep just float out the idea of getting rid of income 18:43.070 --> 18:45.030 taxes and replacing it with tariffs. 18:45.470 --> 18:45.970 Well, okay. 18:46.050 --> 18:46.870 We serious about that? 18:46.870 --> 18:47.570 Yeah, sure. 18:47.770 --> 18:48.210 Why not? 18:48.410 --> 18:49.390 Because we ready. 18:49.730 --> 18:53.790 Our country was the richest in the eight relatively in the 18:53.790 --> 18:56.170 1880s and 1890s. 18:56.510 --> 18:59.070 A president who was assassinated named McKinley. 19:00.050 --> 19:01.090 He was the tariff king. 19:01.330 --> 19:02.810 He spoke beautifully of terraces. 19:03.310 --> 19:05.550 His language was really beautiful. 19:06.410 --> 19:11.170 We will not allow the enemy to come in and take our jobs and 19:11.170 --> 19:14.230 take our factories and take our workers and take our 19:14.230 --> 19:18.110 families unless they pay a big price and the big prices 19:18.110 --> 19:18.570 tariffs. 19:19.230 --> 19:21.930 And he'd speak like that, but he was right. 19:21.930 --> 19:24.150 And then around in the early 1900s, 19:24.690 --> 19:27.290 they switched over stupidly to frankly an income tax. 19:27.890 --> 19:28.910 And you know why? 19:29.250 --> 19:31.290 Because countries were putting a lot of pressure on America. 19:31.430 --> 19:32.290 We don't want to pay tariffs. 19:32.450 --> 19:32.890 Please don't. 19:33.010 --> 19:35.950 You know, they believe me, they control our politicians. 19:36.530 --> 19:40.070 If you look at the kind of numbers that these guys make 19:40.070 --> 19:46.030 then and now, but we had a commission meeting in the 19:46.790 --> 19:48.810 eight, I think it was 1887. 19:49.130 --> 19:50.070 Think of this problem. 19:50.570 --> 19:51.850 We were so rich. 19:52.070 --> 19:54.130 We had so much money. 19:54.270 --> 19:55.510 We didn't know what to do. 19:55.550 --> 19:58.710 So they set up a blue ribbon commission on tariffs. 19:59.510 --> 20:03.290 And the sole purpose is what to do with all the money we had. 20:03.690 --> 20:07.530 We were so rich because we were taxing other people for 20:07.530 --> 20:11.610 coming in and taking our jobs and China does it. 20:11.650 --> 20:12.450 That's what China did. 20:12.590 --> 20:15.370 If you want to open a factory and sell cars, 20:15.510 --> 20:17.530 if you build a factory here or have a factory, 20:17.710 --> 20:18.550 they don't take our cars. 20:18.550 --> 20:19.830 They wouldn't take our cars. 20:20.150 --> 20:24.630 But if you build a plant in China, you can do that. 20:24.770 --> 20:25.430 Elon did that. 20:25.530 --> 20:26.510 By the way, Elon is great. 20:26.910 --> 20:28.790 That guy is such a great guy. 20:28.870 --> 20:30.330 I think you're a fan of Elon. 20:31.830 --> 20:36.950 He just goes on and on. 20:37.670 --> 20:39.230 Pretty cool though, right? 20:39.390 --> 20:40.670 That he's doing Joe Rogan. 20:41.790 --> 20:43.790 We'll see if we get Kamala on there. 20:44.290 --> 20:45.470 No way. 20:45.470 --> 20:48.190 She can sustain that. 20:48.490 --> 20:49.590 I think she already declined. 20:50.930 --> 20:52.050 She already declined. 20:52.690 --> 20:56.750 But we got Trump talking about eliminating income tax. 20:57.330 --> 20:58.290 Fucking awesome. 20:58.970 --> 20:59.550 That's crazy. 21:01.670 --> 21:03.090 Flirting, slightly flirting. 21:03.230 --> 21:04.890 Not official rhetoric, slightly flirting. 21:05.310 --> 21:06.090 Yeah, of course. 21:06.390 --> 21:07.850 It's nice to think about. 21:08.010 --> 21:10.290 I don't know if it'll actually end up ever happening, 21:10.290 --> 21:12.110 but it's nice to think about. 21:12.110 --> 21:15.610 And the thing is that people still don't like tariffs, right? 21:15.950 --> 21:17.610 But from a crypto anarchist standpoint, 21:17.790 --> 21:19.070 tariffs is not free market. 21:19.490 --> 21:25.330 But tariffs over income tax gives you way more control 21:25.330 --> 21:26.070 of your money. 21:26.490 --> 21:27.470 Way more control of your money. 21:27.570 --> 21:29.710 Because you can just choose not to buy certain products. 21:29.830 --> 21:31.090 You can choose not to spend your money. 21:31.630 --> 21:34.030 Income tax, it's forcibly taken out of your paycheck 21:34.030 --> 21:34.690 every month. 21:35.190 --> 21:35.550 Exactly. 21:35.930 --> 21:36.770 So there you go. 21:37.390 --> 21:38.950 Tucks for president, 100%. 21:39.790 --> 21:40.430 No. 21:41.010 --> 21:42.830 And meanwhile, you know, 21:42.870 --> 21:45.610 Trump is flirting with eliminating income tax 21:45.610 --> 21:48.350 and Kamala is flirting with implementing 21:48.830 --> 21:49.790 unrealized capital gains. 21:50.210 --> 21:50.630 Sounds like. 21:51.190 --> 21:51.430 Yeah. 21:51.970 --> 21:54.650 Is either one going to happen? 21:54.850 --> 21:55.390 Probably not. 21:56.230 --> 21:59.850 Kamala, I doubt they might start. 22:00.190 --> 22:01.630 They might start with something small 22:01.630 --> 22:02.990 with the unrealized capital gains. 22:03.610 -->

property tax. 22:10.310 --> 22:11.130 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 22:11.210 --> 22:11.510 There you go. 22:11.990 --> 22:13.590 I like that argument. 22:14.510 --> 22:15.110 So, yeah. 22:17.170 --> 22:18.990 I was listening to the Trump thing, 22:19.310 --> 22:22.430 like the first like 20 minutes or 30 minutes, 22:22.590 --> 22:25.490 I felt like Rogan was just like, bro, come on, man.
