01:35.920 --> 01:37.320 Not like body can. 01:40.600 --> 01:44.620 Minero's chilling at, well, about where it was a week ago. 01:44.760 --> 01:45.260 It's a little higher. 01:45.660 --> 01:45.980 Is that one? 01:46.000 --> 01:47.640 No, it looks like it's been climbing, bro. 01:48.080 --> 01:48.900 It's a little higher. 01:49.920 --> 01:57.080 Oh, wait, this is, hold on, this chart is way too, let's get one hour 01:57.080 --> 01:57.240 chart. 01:57.400 --> 01:58.020 Here we go. 01:58.240 --> 01:58.340 Yep. 01:58.740 --> 01:59.060 All right. 01:59.220 --> 02:06.080 So about a week ago, it has gone up from 150 to 161 after that dip because of the crack 02:06.080 --> 02:07.840 in European listing. 02:08.860 --> 02:11.560 So it is gaining some ground once again. 02:13.120 --> 02:16.500 Wow, I still can't believe it dipped to 135, I'm thinking of October. 02:16.880 --> 02:19.060 It wasn't as bad as the Binance listing for sure. 02:19.680 --> 02:22.760 It took a little hit, but it came back up pretty quickly and it's back up to 160, 02:22.760 --> 02:26.080 which is that sweet spot that it's usually sitting at. 02:27.880 --> 02:28.260 Yeah. 02:28.840 --> 02:32.620 So maybe it can get closer to 170, 180, form an aerotopia. 02:32.720 --> 02:33.180 That would be nice. 02:33.460 --> 02:33.820 That would be nice. 02:34.120 --> 02:34.440 We'll see. 02:34.860 --> 02:37.880 I think my guess was 202 was my... 02:38.580 --> 02:38.960 202? 02:39.080 --> 02:39.220 Yeah. 02:39.300 --> 02:41.520 I think mine was around 180, 185. 02:41.800 --> 02:43.460 Oh, you might be sitting pretty. 02:44.340 --> 02:44.800 I might be. 02:44.880 --> 02:45.540 I might be close. 02:46.980 --> 02:49.100 I have no idea which charts of these are actually. 02:49.100 --> 02:51.800 But if it hits 185, it might just rally from there, man. 02:51.800 --> 02:54.000 It might rally right from there. 02:54.440 --> 03:00.540 I mean, if it hits like, I think maybe 190, I mean 200 for sure. 03:00.920 --> 03:05.760 If it can stay above there, that's going to be a new floor, a new price floor, 03:05.880 --> 03:08.560 I think, because it's been a price ceiling for quite a while now. 03:08.740 --> 03:11.360 It's 200, 190, 200 around there. 03:12.680 --> 03:14.160 So yeah, that'd be cool though. 03:14.240 --> 03:15.100 That'd be interesting to see. 03:15.880 --> 03:16.840 Bitcoin's back up. 03:17.520 --> 03:18.300 It's back up. 03:18.360 --> 03:19.180 It's trying again. 03:19.180 --> 03:20.160 It's trying again. 03:20.280 --> 03:23.400 It's at 68.3 right now. 03:23.960 --> 03:24.140 K. 03:25.100 --> 03:27.680 So it's trying again for that 70K, I guess. 03:28.800 --> 03:30.160 And then gold also. 03:30.860 --> 03:34.060 There's been a lot of negative news surrounding banks and their debt. 03:34.260 --> 03:37.180 So gold has been also... 03:37.960 --> 03:39.020 I don't want to get gold. 03:39.200 --> 03:40.000 This one's gold USD. 03:41.700 --> 03:42.560 Gold USD. 03:42.640 --> 03:46.780 Yeah, it's like people know something, right? 03:48.960 --> 03:50.000 There's people... 03:50.000 --> 03:53.460 Some big institutions I feel like are, you know, 03:53.600 --> 03:55.800 moving more into gold right now. 03:56.580 --> 03:59.800 I guess no matter what happens after the election, 04:00.520 --> 04:02.160 there's going to be some instability, 04:02.400 --> 04:04.660 whether or not Trump wins or Kamala wins. 04:04.820 --> 04:08.720 If Trump wins, there'll be riots who are potentially right. 04:08.800 --> 04:10.000 Who knows what the hell is going to happen. 04:11.760 --> 04:14.780 If Kamala wins, people are just going to be terrified of 04:14.780 --> 04:16.360 unrealized capital gains tax. 04:16.640 --> 04:20.660 Either way, you know, gold and crypto is probably... 04:20.660 --> 04:23.200 Gold just hit another all-time high by far. 04:24.420 --> 04:27.460 February was around 2K. 04:28.580 --> 04:30.600 And then slowly it just continued to go up. 04:30.720 --> 04:36.640 And now it's up to 2,735, which is an all-time high once again. 04:37.360 --> 04:39.280 So people are putting money in gold right now. 04:40.160 --> 04:43.400 Whenever UK just said, if you get plus or minus within $5, 04:43.400 --> 04:44.960 I'll pay one XMR. 04:45.260 --> 04:48.560 So what's the rule for that? 04:49.020 --> 04:50.380 So the day Monerotopia starts, 04:51.540 --> 04:54.920 my price estimate has to be plus or minus within $5. 04:57.080 --> 04:58.440 I guess that's what he's saying. 04:58.600 --> 04:59.440 Well, you already have your... 04:59.440 --> 05:01.060 You can't change your estimate now. 05:01.060 --> 05:01.540 No, no. 05:02.300 --> 05:04.380 I'd have to check with Bonnie to confirm what it was. 05:04.540 --> 05:06.240 I think it was $5 because he has the chart. 05:07.580 --> 05:09.020 I'm pretty sure I'm $202. 05:09.720 --> 05:12.400 That would be wild if we got up that high 05:12.400 --> 05:13.460 by Monerotopia. 05:13.680 --> 05:16.060 I mean, that means Monero's flying high, 05:16.260 --> 05:17.860 bouncing back from being delisted. 05:18.940 --> 05:21.320 It could only be delisted so many more times. 05:21.580 --> 05:23.740 And every time it seems to get delisted, 05:24.040 --> 05:25.680 the effect seems to be less, 05:26.080 --> 05:28.960 and the bounce back seems to be stronger. 05:30.240 --> 05:34.360 So I think things are sitting pretty pretty pretty right now. 05:34.520 --> 05:37.660 I mean, obviously Monero has lost a lot of ground. 05:37.860 --> 05:38.320 It was doing... 05:38.320 --> 05:40.740 It had the same momentum that Bitcoin had, 05:40.740 --> 05:43.240 it was climbing with Bitcoin and then bam, 05:43.900 --> 05:45.840 it got delisted yet again. 05:46.240 --> 05:48.160 So lost some momentum there, 05:48.360 --> 05:51.640 but it seems to be rallying back. 05:53.240 --> 05:59.700 Monero UK said it was guessing the price on Christmas Day. 06:00.840 --> 06:01.480 What? 06:02.040 --> 06:03.940 Guessing the Monero price on Christmas Day 06:03.940 --> 06:04.980 if you're supposed to... 06:04.980 --> 06:05.140 Okay. 06:05.400 --> 06:06.320 ...or minus within $5. 06:06.360 --> 06:07.500 I'll pay one XMR. 06:08.300 --> 06:08.900 Wow. 06:09.740 --> 06:11.560 Very, very generous of him. 06:11.820 --> 06:12.480 So what's your guess? 06:12.780 --> 06:13.300 It's Christmas Day. 06:13.880 --> 06:14.660 Oh boy. 06:15.220 --> 06:16.020 Let's see what it was. 06:16.580 --> 06:18.160 Let's look at the year... 06:18.800 --> 06:20.060 It's like in the 12th month here. 06:20.840 --> 06:21.000 Yeah. 06:22.600 --> 06:25.020 December Christmas Day was... 06:25.020 --> 06:27.060 It was around one, it was like one, 06:27.380 --> 06:28.900 just about 180, 178. 06:30.980 --> 06:31.580 Okay. 06:32.560 --> 06:36.000 This year, it really just depends what happens. 06:36.000 --> 06:39.240 Do we have a major economic event 06:40.000 --> 06:42.360 that kind of pulls everything back even more? 06:42.860 --> 06:45.360 Yeah, we got the presidential election. 06:45.600 --> 06:48.000 It's going to be a bit of a different world after that. 06:50.160 --> 06:51.360 Trump is... 06:51.360 --> 06:53.960 Good chance Trump will be the guy in office. 06:54.860 --> 06:58.180 What does that then mean for the broader market? 06:58.940 --> 07:00.200 Crypto, Monero? 07:01.400 --> 07:01.720 Obviously. 07:01.840 --> 07:02.660 I'll have to think about this one. 07:03.260 --> 07:03.600 Yeah. 07:03.600 --> 07:05.120 I don't know. Hard to say. 07:06.520 --> 07:10.040 I think crypto will continue to rally. 07:10.340 --> 07:11.020 Trump will get in. 07:11.760 --> 07:13.220 Crypto will rally. 07:13.740 --> 07:15.640 It would definitely be good for crypto if Trump got in, 07:15.780 --> 07:16.120 that's for sure. 07:16.960 --> 07:17.240 Yeah. 07:17.940 --> 07:19.140 I mean Monero... 07:19.860 --> 07:22.280 Monero always seems to be its own thing, right? 07:23.400 --> 07:24.260 And I don't know. 07:24.560 --> 07:27.140 No politician seems to be good for Monero. 07:27.900 --> 07:30.780 I don't think Trump has proven that he would be 07:32.020 --> 07:33.320 good for Monero. 07:33.540 --> 07:34.280 He'll be good for crypto. 07:34.660 --> 07:36.700 He'll be good for his own crypto that he launched. 07:38.960 --> 07:39.760 The DJT. 07:39.920 --> 07:42.420 What's it like an ETH token or something? 07:43.220 --> 07:44.760 Dude, what is... 07:46.000 --> 07:46.740 It's like, come on, man. 07:47.300 --> 07:49.040 It's like I want to vote for you. 07:49.280 --> 07:51.540 I'm voting for Trump, no matter what. 07:51.720 --> 07:53.500 But you're not making it easy, man. 07:53.760 --> 07:54.600 You're not making it easy. 07:55.300 --> 07:58.680 You got to grift us and scam us as you do it. 07:58.680 --> 08:02.180 Just freaking focus on the election, 08:02.560 --> 08:03.460 get in the office, 08:03.940 --> 08:07.620 and do some of the pro-liberty things 08:07.620 --> 08:08.780 that you claim you'll be doing. 08:08.980 --> 08:09.400 Free Ross. 08:09.800 --> 08:10.520 Free Ross. 08:12.260 --> 08:15.180 We don't need you grifting your crypto. 08:16.120 --> 08:17.920 How does he get to that point? 08:18.720 --> 08:21.980 To me, that's just like... 08:21.980 --> 08:25.880 It just shows major flaws, right? 08:26.840 --> 08:28.400 What's your reaction to that, Tux? 08:29.800 --> 08:32.200 It shows his true colors, 08:32.280 --> 08:33.360 which we've always known, 08:33.560 --> 08:34.680 but then people... 08:34.680 --> 08:35.700 I never forget it, 08:35.780 --> 08:37.140 but some people forget, right? 08:37.220 --> 08:38.560 They get mesmerized, 08:38.660 --> 08:39.500 and they get excited by, 08:39.660 --> 08:41.080 oh man, he's the second coming, right? 08:41.180 --> 08:41.940 The guy's our savior. 08:42.120 --> 08:43.980 He really is for the people. 08:44.840 --> 08:45.160 But you forget, 08:45.320 --> 08:46.260 at the end of the day, 08:46.280 --> 08:47.120 he's Trump. 08:47.260 --> 08:48.300 He's Trump Enterprises. 08:50.780 --> 08:52.620 He's a grifter by nature, man. 08:53.280 --> 08:56.780 His grift happens to align with Liberty right now, 08:56.800 --> 08:57.320 which is good. 08:57.320 --> 08:58.460 So go ahead, 08:58.680 --> 08:59.700 grift away, 09:00.600 --> 09:02.260 do pro-liberty things, 09:02.560 --> 09:03.780 interest the line there. 09:04.260 --> 09:05.100 But let's not forget, 09:05.400 --> 09:06.840 let's not forget who he is. 09:07.300 --> 09:08.440 If you're in the U.S., 09:08.440 --> 09:09.200 go vote for Trump. 09:09.360 --> 09:10.940 Let's get him in office 100%. 09:11.500 --> 09:12.840 But goddamn it, man. 09:12.980 --> 09:14.380 What is he doing with 09:15.380 --> 09:16.480 trying to pump, 09:16.700 --> 09:18.800 you know, a scam project 09:18.800 --> 09:21.800 a month out from his presidential election? 09:22.420 --> 09:23.320 And it's like... 09:23.320 --> 09:24.980 Oh yes, I took a look at it myself, 09:24.980 --> 09:27.540 and it's even funnier in order to... 09:27.540 --> 09:31.700 It's like the most anti-crypto thing. 09:31.940 --> 09:34.240 It's like in order to even get some of this token, 09:34.720 --> 09:36.120 you have to KYC yourself. 09:36.200 --> 09:37.220 You have to use Wallet Connect, 09:37.480 --> 09:38.300 because it's the theory of things. 09:38.640 --> 09:41.040 Then you have to give them a picture of your driver's license 09:41.040 --> 09:43.080 to make sure you're a citizen, all this stuff, 09:43.220 --> 09:44.940 to get your DJT token. 09:45.520 --> 09:46.980 You have to be a qualified investor, 09:47.120 --> 09:48.640 because they didn't want to, you know, 09:49.000 --> 09:50.960 go to jail for SEC, you know, 09:51.280 --> 09:52.320 securities violations. 09:52.780 --> 09:54.080 So you have to either be, you know, 09:54.540 --> 09:55.560 a qualified investor 09:56.320 --> 09:57.220 or a foreigner. 09:57.800 --> 10:00.540 So it's like not even open up to the general U.S. public, 10:00.620 --> 10:01.480 which I guess is a good thing. 10:01.740 --> 10:03.660 Oh really?

10:21.880 --> 10:23.460 Yeah, yep. 10:23.960 --> 10:26.400 So, or you could be a foreign investor 10:26.400 --> 10:28.120 outside of the U.S. where, you know, 10:28.200 --> 10:29.740 the SEC doesn't... 10:29.740 --> 10:31.180 Somehow that's a better thing. 10:32.180 --> 10:34.440 Yeah, so it's like, so even, you know, 10:34.520 --> 10:36.440 and it's funny because it's like him announcing it 10:36.440 --> 10:37.560 with the American flags in the background, 10:37.800 --> 10:40.120 like the typical American can't even legally 10:40.120 --> 10:42.080 invest in his, 10:43.060 --> 10:44.440 in his IPO here, 10:44.580 --> 10:45.040 his ICO. 10:45.460 --> 10:45.940 It's hilarious. 10:48.180 --> 10:49.820 Dude, he's got his sons, 10:49.820 --> 10:51.580 I guess they're the ones that roped him into this. 10:51.740 --> 10:53.040 I see they're all over the project. 10:53.680 --> 10:54.920 I don't know if you want to bring it up. 10:54.920 --> 10:56.200 Maybe we could talk about that later. 10:56.360 --> 10:57.920 I think it will come up in the news, I don't know. 11:00.780 --> 11:01.740 Yeah, price report. 11:02.080 --> 11:03.420 I think we're looking pretty here. 11:03.860 --> 11:04.200 160. 11:04.920 --> 11:06.560 I'm sticking with my... 11:06.560 --> 11:07.700 Well, I have to stick with it anyway, 11:07.700 --> 11:10.480 but I'm actually, I think we could get to 202, guys. 11:10.740 --> 11:11.540 Magic could happen. 11:11.660 --> 11:12.400 We got a month out. 11:13.800 --> 11:14.520 Three weeks. 11:15.160 --> 11:15.800 Three weeks. 11:16.020 --> 11:18.220 Yeah, who knows? 11:18.540 --> 11:18.760 Who knows? 11:19.160 --> 11:21.540 180 is probably more realistic, but you never know. 11:22.040 --> 11:22.460 You never know. 11:23.160 --> 11:24.980 It would have been a lot more realistic 11:24.980 --> 11:27.140 if that crack and event didn't happen. 11:28.160 --> 11:28.680 Oh, yeah. 11:28.780 --> 11:30.280 It had to take a little bit of time to recover, 11:30.500 --> 11:31.500 but we'll see. 11:32.220 --> 11:34.620 But I do feel like at some point, 11:34.840 --> 11:37.240 once, you know, it's being delisted so much 11:37.240 --> 11:39.900 and every time it keeps creeping back up, 11:40.040 --> 11:42.400 at some point it's going to like creep back up, 11:42.400 --> 11:44.400 but then just kind of keep on going 11:44.400 --> 11:47.840 and there'll be nothing left to push it back down, you know? 11:48.240 --> 11:49.520 I mean, that's the hope. 11:50.220 --> 11:52.360 It just depends on how much demand 11:52.360 --> 11:54.080 there ends up being compared to 11:54.760 --> 11:56.520 the amount of liquidity available, 11:57.100 --> 11:59.200 because if, like, there's high demand 12:00.660 --> 12:01.720 and there's, like, 12:02.320 --> 12:04.000 such a low liquidity, 12:04.220 --> 12:06.300 like there's not enough liquid Monero, 12:06.420 --> 12:08.120 then it will still, that could still 12:08.120 --> 12:09.980 potentially cause price to 12:11.400 --> 12:12.960 not take off like you want it to. 12:13.400 --> 12:14.760 There has to be, like, a 12:15.280 --> 12:17.420 kind of an even play between them. 12:17.840 --> 12:18.580 Like, obviously, scarcity 12:19.740 --> 12:21.880 can bring Monero's price to be 12:21.880 --> 12:23.320 super valuable, but there has to also be 12:23.320 --> 12:24.520 liquidity there so people can trade 12:24.520 --> 12:25.460 to make the price go up. 12:25.780 --> 12:27.080 Right, they need to be able to access. 12:27.720 --> 12:29.880 Right, it might be super scarce 12:29.880 --> 12:31.620 and everybody wants it, but then if it's like, 12:31.680 --> 12:33.120 there's no bridges to get it. 12:33.420 --> 12:34.840 But the bridges exist, right?
