00:37.500 --> 00:38.840
Hey, buddy, what's going on man?

00:40.520 --> 00:43.620
I'll just um doing good man doing good. I

00:43.620 --> 00:45.160
Gotta say I guess I have to start out

00:45.840 --> 00:51.220
Bro, I did warn you. I said I said that these guys have tricks up their sleeve

00:51.220 --> 00:55.280
I you know, I noted that they they still have firepower to delist

00:55.900 --> 01:01.680
You know, I said hey, this is kind of like this is the top of our trend for the past like three years

01:02.620 --> 01:08.320
There's a possibility that you know that something could happen like expect that they've still got tricks up their sleeve, so

01:09.200 --> 01:13.980
But no, I mean, maybe I could have been I wasn't quite Nostradamus enough

01:14.820 --> 01:19.920
For for myself for my fans. I guess I have to issue an a formal apology

01:20.540 --> 01:25.720
For for not knowing that it was cracking that was gonna do list across the EU. I

01:25.720 --> 01:27.720
Apologize. I'm sorry. I'll try to do better

01:28.480 --> 01:35.400
Yeah, you weren't surveilling the Monero blockchain to see to see see the Monero moving to crack in and being sold and whatnot

01:35.400 --> 01:37.480
You weren't you're not capable of that

01:38.060 --> 01:40.160
Maybe that's what those transaction counts

01:40.760 --> 01:47.000
Extra transaction counts were like somebody new right? I wonder who's selling right who who are the assholes who are selling?

01:47.200 --> 01:49.620
Like how many how many inside how many people you think new

01:50.720 --> 01:52.860
Right. Yeah, it's the word really

01:53.600 --> 01:56.460
Yeah, somebody like somebody new some insiders now

01:56.460 --> 01:59.500
I think I actually I wonder

02:00.500 --> 02:05.400
these guys the best way for them to cap the prices for them to get as much Monero as possible and

02:05.400 --> 02:09.120
Probably at this point the best way for them to get as much Monero as possible

02:09.120 --> 02:16.720
In addition to maybe trying to mine some of it, you know, maybe there's some like deal with bit main or nice hash or whoever

02:17.640 --> 02:23.440
But then you know, like they could probably use these events and these things that they know about ahead of time

02:23.440 --> 02:29.000
Yeah, so they can sell high and then they know that people are gonna swing trade and then buy low

02:29.540 --> 02:35.020
And they can see all the inflows right like in terms of you know as far as crack in and other

02:35.020 --> 02:39.080
Exchanges and these you know the insta swap exchanges they can

02:39.720 --> 02:47.500
Assuming that they they are in partnership or that maybe chain analysis as at least buying the information from these exchanges

02:47.500 --> 02:50.800
They can see in flows. They know when when the uptick begins

02:50.800 --> 02:58.680
They know when the volume starts to increase when when the bottom is near. So, I mean, they've got the tools to time this thing

02:58.680 --> 03:04.920
So in other words, like they probably know that their ability to limit a Monero's price is coming to an end

03:04.920 --> 03:08.000
And so they need to accumulate as much as possible until that time

03:09.540 --> 03:13.020
And you know, they'll do the same thing like it's it's the same thing with gold, right?

03:13.120 --> 03:17.860
Like they have a there's a limited ability that they have to suppress the gold price

03:17.860 --> 03:24.060
And so, you know, they've got backup plan B plan C for when it's time for the breakout to happen

03:25.440 --> 03:30.140
Yeah, I mean how many more hammers can drop right? What do we have left? Well, we have crack in us

03:30.140 --> 03:36.740
That would be like that would be like the final the final leg, right after that anything else would be insignificant. Oh, yeah

03:36.740 --> 03:37.080
Yeah

03:38.320 --> 03:40.000
Right. Well, that's for sure

03:40.720 --> 03:43.620
Yeah, that's um that would surprise me a little bit

03:43.620 --> 03:50.160
I feel I would like to think that Kraken would push back at the same time Jay Powell Jesse Powell not

03:51.140 --> 03:52.800
Not Jerome Powell

03:53.340 --> 03:58.700
Jay Powell of Kraken. He stepped down as the CEO in 2022 like September 2022

03:59.380 --> 04:06.060
So, um, he's still on the he's still the chairman of the board. So, you know, there's still like maybe a positive influence there

04:06.660 --> 04:12.460
But the FBI also rated his home in in 2023 and they said it was unrelated to crypto

04:12.460 --> 04:18.360
They said that he hacked some I don't know some art people or something like he he hacked some art

04:18.360 --> 04:23.440
People and tried to do something allegedly so they raided his home. It's like get the fuck out of here

04:23.440 --> 04:24.920
That's that is no, no

04:24.920 --> 04:30.840
You just wanted an excuse to go raid his home and see if you could find any possible little thing that you could

04:31.300 --> 04:35.360
To the I didn't even know when did this happen? When does his home get rated? This is

04:36.020 --> 04:40.400
2023, you know, the New York Times reported it that I think it was like July 2023

04:41.040 --> 04:44.420
Jesus, they were accusing him of being involved in

04:45.440 --> 04:51.300
Some what was it some something like a hack against art people or something to do with art?

04:51.440 --> 04:57.520
I don't know man my details the details are fuzzy for me, but it was allegedly completely unrelated to crypto

04:57.520 --> 04:59.700
But yeah, yeah, just like they found

04:59.700 --> 05:05.900
Just like they found child porn on on Cody Wilson's computer. It's like, okay. Yeah

05:05.900 --> 05:13.220
Yeah, showing people how to how to do these guns or whatever the 3d printed guns and how convenient

05:13.220 --> 05:20.440
It's like it's just there. I know it's it's it's terrifying right there. They just do that to frickin anyone. I mean it's

05:22.120 --> 05:25.880
Jesus Christ guys, that's what we just need. We need a lot more of us, right?

05:26.060 --> 05:30.300
It's it's hard for them to do it to a lot of people they could take out one or two

05:31.200 --> 05:35.740
But as we build momentum, it's gonna be it's gonna be very difficult for them to stop

05:35.900 --> 05:41.720
All of us they can't stop us all the area 51 meme was just like totally wasted on aliens

05:41.720 --> 05:45.080
There's like so many there's a dozen other things we could use this for

05:46.840 --> 05:52.020
But yeah, that was a week what what other hammers can drop crack in us. What else we got I

05:53.980 --> 05:57.060
Guess they could maybe start banning it

05:57.860 --> 06:04.520
For corporate usage in general, you know, like I think it's it's illegal to use in is it

06:06.520 --> 06:12.420
Dubai it's it's a pan and Dubai. Maybe yeah, Japan too. I think I don't think it's illegal for like

06:12.420 --> 06:13.980
Individuals to use it still

06:14.540 --> 06:18.300
Dubai it might be illegal for individuals to use it. I'm not totally sure on that one

06:18.300 --> 06:22.780
But like corporations in Dubai are not allowed to use Monero from my understanding at this point

06:25.840 --> 06:29.980
Yeah, so just just making it illegal would be the next the next route

06:31.260 --> 06:37.440
Yeah, well, it's gonna be harder in the states, but you know, we've kind of seen the breakdown of the rule of law here as well

06:39.160 --> 06:48.820
Yeah, I mean the good thing is this is all happening at a time when we're transitioning towards not needing centralized exchanges at all

06:48.820 --> 06:49.580
We have

06:50.460 --> 06:57.840
Havino, which is starting to grow and gain gain some traction. We have Sarai decks. That's right around right around the corner

06:58.880 --> 07:06.320
And there, you know that that promises to really be a fluid way to go in and out of Monero and other cryptos without KYC

07:06.320 --> 07:09.700
AML and without having to go through like an exchange process

07:11.540 --> 07:16.740
So that's that's gonna be quite promising and it couldn't come at a better time

07:16.740 --> 07:20.400
We have basic swap you had them on the show not as not a

07:20.400 --> 07:27.400
Not completely there yet in terms of being super super easy to use but making a lot of headway and growing

07:27.400 --> 07:31.140
And purely peer-to-peer based on atomic swaps

07:31.900 --> 07:35.280
Completely unstoppable. It's people just running their own software

07:36.220 --> 07:38.360
so we have these solutions and

07:39.220 --> 07:41.540
They all are growing in

07:41.540 --> 07:49.300
Momentum they're growing in their their usability and they're growing in the amount of users that are using them. So

07:50.580 --> 07:53.060
Monero appears to be as unstoppable as ever

07:54.240 --> 07:57.120
You know, I was um, I was looking at

07:58.480 --> 07:58.960
Trocador

07:59.800 --> 08:05.240
The other day and it was like all of the options for tour have gone away

08:05.240 --> 08:09.500
There's literally one option now that you can do a Monero swap via tour

08:09.500 --> 08:12.280
Yeah, I thought that was really weird like like everyone

08:12.920 --> 08:17.100
Including Exile X you can't yeah, they won't they won't do a swap over tour now

08:17.840 --> 08:19.160
Really? Yeah

08:19.740 --> 08:24.300
Yeah, so I guess you have to make sure you have to go you have to exit tour to a VPN

08:24.960 --> 08:31.380
To mask your tour usage if you want to use these so the only the only tour up the only instant swap off

08:31.380 --> 08:34.120
Still offering tour access is what?

08:35.060 --> 08:40.900
Oh, I don't remember. Let me go to Chocador. Well Chocador itself. You could access by a tour, right?

08:41.240 --> 08:44.360
Yeah, you can get you can access Chocador by tour, but you can't

08:45.280 --> 08:49.060
But like once you try to make the swap and you see the listing

08:50.420 --> 08:54.300
You you can't you can't actually like none of that none of the offering

08:55.880 --> 08:59.220
So what you get downgraded to the clear net address

09:01.020 --> 09:04.940
Yeah, well, it's not that you get downgraded. It's just like they're grayed out

09:04.940 --> 09:10.160
It's like hey, you could use this but you're on tour right now. So you can use this this this or this option

09:10.160 --> 09:13.060
specifically excluded Chocador from

09:13.780 --> 09:14.220
allowing

09:15.080 --> 09:19.440
Anyone to make a trade through their tour their onion even though it's going through them

09:21.220 --> 09:24.040
Yeah, yeah, exactly. I see they've like opted out essentially

09:24.740 --> 09:28.440
Let me see. Let me just put in like a trade. Maybe I can show you guys

09:29.520 --> 09:31.300
Oh wait, I've got to get to the tour

09:33.200 --> 09:36.500
Yeah, I didn't plan on showing that so let's

09:37.360 --> 09:38.560
Bear if you need me to

09:40.740 --> 09:41.220
I

09:41.220 --> 09:43.340
Surprise they don't have their there don't have their onion

09:46.460 --> 09:51.440
Header because of their onion address doesn't show up if I just go to Chocador app doesn't request

09:52.700 --> 09:55.000
Sam but Bent is referring to

09:55.000 --> 10:01.680
Banning Monero making it illegal will increase the value just like drugs or anything else. Yeah, that's that sounds nice

10:01.680 --> 10:06.480
But that's I don't I don't I actually don't agree with that. I mean, maybe maybe a little bit

10:08.100 --> 10:13.500
It's just that like the problem is that people are addicted to drugs people fucking love drugs

10:14.080 --> 10:20.120
Like who doesn't like drugs like very few people don't at least like some drug even if it's just coffee, bro

10:20.640 --> 10:25.440
So the problem is that like drugs market themselves, right? People have like this demand for drugs

10:25.440 --> 10:33.020
And so you make them illegal and you know people still but but they use Monero as a tool to obtain them

10:33.020 --> 10:34.620
in many ways, so

10:35.680 --> 10:43.380
If you know that the desire to use Monero will still exist right the utility even if it's like that

10:44.220 --> 10:49.400
Yeah, I mean that's there's no truth. No, there's really no other way to run a dark market without Monero right now

10:49.400 --> 10:49.800
I mean

10:50.680 --> 10:52.620
Unless you want to really take a high risk

10:53.460 --> 10:57.420
so not you know, I'm not saying yes, that's right or wrong but

10:57.920 --> 11:01.260
Monero is the best tool for it and there's definitely a need and people are gonna

11:02.360 --> 11:05.740
People are gonna use it for that purpose that that would be my take on that

11:05.740 --> 11:10.200
What what what is the price need to be for it to sustain that market? I?

11:10.260 --> 11:11.480
Guess you can do the math on that

11:12.100 --> 11:17.180
Onboard users tip 25 cents tucks. I helped an Uber driver set up a Monero comma wall in an iOS

11:17.180 --> 11:21.880
I wasn't able to scan his QR code. I think because his phone was set to dark background

11:21.880 --> 11:28.520
I've had these issues before don't know a wallet version, but what have been current iOS version as of

11:28.520 --> 11:31.080
Port the bogus just use your feedback

11:33.060 --> 11:35.380
Yeah, I'm not sure why

11:36.340 --> 11:39.960
Dark mode would have prevented to the cure cook me scannable

11:40.540 --> 11:43.680
On iOS because we don't really do anything based on the OS

11:44.940 --> 11:47.240
Theme at all. So that's something

11:48.500 --> 11:51.100
I'll see if there's a ticket open that internally already

11:51.100 --> 11:52.400
It's interesting

11:56.020 --> 11:56.620
I

11:56.620 --> 12:03.980
23 hold on body making Monero legal just push everyone to use it by tour instead of clear net it can't be stopped

12:03.980 --> 12:09.600
Anyway, yeah, I agree. So here's a body was talking about as you can see we've got three options here

12:09.600 --> 12:11.260
Exilex we like Exilex

12:11.820 --> 12:14.760
Alpha cash and wizard swap wizard swap is very based

12:15.280 --> 12:18.300
Three options everything else. They do not allow

12:18.300 --> 12:22.300
Tor I to P trades to happen. So out of these one

12:22.300 --> 12:28.040
Bump your bump your amount bump it to like something past 10,000 and see if that changes things

12:28.880 --> 12:34.880
It's like point to VTC. Yeah. Oh, so let me change right here. It's edit. There we go

12:34.880 --> 12:43.070
Are you supposed to screencast with tour?

12:44.370 --> 12:45.450
I'm just playing

12:47.950 --> 12:50.370
Bro, it's ruined. Oh

12:50.370 --> 12:52.510
No, they can see the size of my browser window

12:53.190 --> 12:53.630
Yeah

12:54.450 --> 13:00.730
As we speak the feds watching this show or like aha look at the look at the resolution on it

13:00.730 --> 13:05.130
I probably do you have a slightly custom fingerprint though? Because as you can see I have you block a bit more than oh

13:06.850 --> 13:08.010
Snap yeah, actually

13:09.550 --> 13:16.150
You know, I I'm not gonna lie sometimes I change the resolution of the browser like I'll I'll make the screen bigger smaller

13:16.150 --> 13:16.650
It's like

13:17.370 --> 13:21.690
Come on. Yeah, are you gonna find me that way? I don't probably not still got three options

13:21.690 --> 13:25.730
Still okay, okay, and this is maybe it just happened to be

13:28.050 --> 13:30.010
Yeah, okay, so I am seeing Xlix on here

13:30.750 --> 13:35.010
The other day I was looking at it and it was I don't remember which one was available

13:35.010 --> 13:39.290
But there was only one and I was like wait Xlix is is is not on there

13:39.910 --> 13:40.350
like

13:42.030 --> 13:44.550
Not many options, but there are a few still

13:45.030 --> 13:50.210
Yeah, there's definitely fewer you access you're accessing it by a tour right now talks or sign

13:50.210 --> 13:54.750
This is correct. You can see the onion link at the top of his other webpage

13:58.290 --> 14:00.110
Very cool very cool very cool

14:00.690 --> 14:06.870
All right, so body just spread in false fake news man body's trying to drive down the price of an era

14:06.870 --> 14:09.090
I was spreading my truth, bro

14:09.870 --> 14:11.530
Truth is I see it

14:11.530 --> 14:12.170
Or at least

14:13.950 --> 14:17.090
And now he's trying to crash an era I

14:18.170 --> 14:21.570
Was the Fed boy that that was selling down price at the top

14:23.590 --> 14:27.570
I will give us you I mean, well, I don't even know what's that has it since bounce back up

14:27.570 --> 14:34.090
I haven't really been following it closely. I would let it are we anywhere near my 202 number for Minerotopia in one month

14:34.090 --> 14:36.450
I mean define it back

14:38.370 --> 14:40.970
Where we're you know, we're coming back we've had a bounce back

14:41.530 --> 14:47.870
You can see here. We have the so all of this all of this junk right here one two three four five looks like five or six days

14:48.530 --> 14:50.890
Almost a week there that things were just crashing

14:54.510 --> 14:58.830
When is the actual delisting date? Oh

14:58.830 --> 15:02.010
One of it. Yeah. Yeah, so October 31st

15:02.010 --> 15:06.070
They're gonna halt all trading and deposits for people registered in the EU

15:06.710 --> 15:13.510
And they're gonna close any open orders and then December 31st is the withdrawal like deadline

15:13.510 --> 15:22.170
So get your get your Minerot off of Kraken before New Year's apparently if you're in the any European Economic Region

15:23.090 --> 15:25.190
Yeah, yeah only for EU people I

15:26.150 --> 15:28.950
Mean like you said they're running out of firepower like Kraken is

15:29.510 --> 15:32.830
Kraken is the last major exchange after anyone else D list

15:32.830 --> 15:35.730
I it's hard to see that it's gonna matter hardly at all

15:36.070 --> 15:39.230
I mean I can at least appreciate Kraken because they've been

15:39.790 --> 15:47.570
They it seems like they have been somewhat dedicated at least compared to the others to trying to keep Minerot as long as possible

15:47.570 --> 15:48.590
Yeah

15:49.630 --> 15:54.770
Yeah, although, you know, you could say that's you could say that that's some you know

15:54.770 --> 15:56.310
That was just part of their long game, right?

15:56.390 --> 16:03.270
Like they saved Kraken for their for their back-end firepower after they exhausted finance and their other options

16:03.270 --> 16:03.970
You know now

16:03.970 --> 16:07.330
But at what point does the you know the

16:08.810 --> 16:11.850
Feds right the the states around the world

16:12.410 --> 16:18.550
That are essentially the ones behind these these listings that are putting the pressure on exchanges to delist

16:19.310 --> 16:21.210
At what point do they realize

16:21.890 --> 16:29.810
That the only way they can gain some insight into huge using Minerot and what they're using it for and gain any insight at all

16:29.810 --> 16:36.510
Is to have people come through centralized exchanges to obtain the Minerot like it's like why would you be taking this approach?

16:36.830 --> 16:38.010
they're literally

16:38.890 --> 16:41.950
pushing it off into the fringes and

16:41.950 --> 16:48.350
Putting fuel to the fire and allowing it to grow stronger and stronger as opposed to you know

16:48.350 --> 16:53.450
Trying to work with it which we've seen them do with Bitcoin in a very effective way

16:53.450 --> 16:59.410
Right to the point where we we say here that it's been co-opted, right? It's like fully integrated into

16:59.810 --> 17:03.530
The current the current fiat system. They're surveilling it

17:03.530 --> 17:06.590
No, they know everybody that's obtaining their Bitcoin. They can see it moving

17:06.590 --> 17:11.030
I mean if they want to gain any insight into how people are using Minerot

17:11.030 --> 17:15.730
They need to at least the only thing they could try to do is have them come through an exchange

17:16.310 --> 17:20.670
You know and they could try to figure out at least who the who the players are at least know who's using it

17:21.890 --> 17:23.370
Why would they give that away?

17:24.170 --> 17:26.450
It is a good point. I would say that

17:27.950 --> 17:31.990
I would say that that they might still have some reasonably good methods

17:31.990 --> 17:35.510
Maybe they have some reasonably good methods of determining who's using Minerot

17:35.510 --> 17:38.690
So for example, if you're running a node and you're not going over tour

17:39.910 --> 17:42.110
You know, maybe maybe they can figure that out

17:42.110 --> 17:47.450
But it seems like most people are gonna be using a VPN at least probably maybe most VPNs are honeypots

17:47.450 --> 17:53.470
So they're like confident that even if you're using a VPN, they can still see your Minerot usage your Minerot node

17:54.930 --> 17:59.330
Maybe they have other methods. I don't know. I mean even if it's not a honeypot

18:00.110 --> 18:00.590
It's

18:00.590 --> 18:06.710
Still like most people are going to probably be using VPN paths that exist only within their own country

18:06.710 --> 18:10.830
Right because it's faster and you know, like if you're using a VPN in the United States

18:11.570 --> 18:17.530
The the BPS companies and the data centers there. They're walking regardless of whether the VPN company is or not

18:18.610 --> 18:23.150
Yeah, that's true. Yeah, that's that is a good point. The ISPs are like a huge weakness

18:23.470 --> 18:27.370
Especially with traffic analysis and that kind of thing and timing attacks

18:27.370 --> 18:33.670
Like who's to say that they haven't just like made very sophisticated timing analysis attacks and signatures

18:34.890 --> 18:39.650
Especially with growing bandwidth, like that could be like a negative aspect of growing bandwidth is that they have the overhead

18:39.650 --> 18:41.470
Like I'm just thinking out loud here

18:41.470 --> 18:44.830
So but it seems to me that with with large bandwidth

18:44.830 --> 18:49.130
You would have the overhead to introduce slight timing attacks so that you can you can still

18:49.750 --> 18:53.170
Correlate people's activity from one side of the VPN to the other

18:53.990 --> 18:58.030
Yeah, I do like what MoVet is doing with their day. I

18:58.030 --> 19:04.290
Think it's like D. A. I. T. As you know AI whatever they're they're basically padding packets

19:04.290 --> 19:07.870
So they all look the same and they're adding noise to

19:09.170 --> 19:12.550
Your your VPN connection to try and

19:13.710 --> 19:14.270
obscure

19:15.910 --> 19:20.990
The real data that you're you're actually using the real connections you're making to try and

19:22.030 --> 19:25.070
Help prevent timing attacks, but that's a hard thing to do

19:25.070 --> 19:30.170
Do you know if my VPN is doing the same thing? I'm not sure

19:33.130 --> 19:37.070
Let's see we have a we have XMR XMR chat from nihilist

19:37.750 --> 19:41.150
He tipped point zero zero eight manero he says that

19:41.150 --> 19:47.250
Making manero illegal will just push everyone to use it via tour instead of clear net. It can't be stopped anyways

19:49.370 --> 19:51.270
Yeah, I definitely hundred percent

19:52.710 --> 19:59.130
Or I to pee is anyone out there any chads out there using I to pee to run a manero no not I

20:02.530 --> 20:05.190
We have it integrated into no, no

20:07.650 --> 20:08.390
I never

20:09.530 --> 20:12.510
Like in in all my social media forays

20:12.510 --> 20:16.570
I've I don't think I've seen even maybe maybe one maybe two people

20:16.570 --> 20:19.930
That is that have talked about using manero over I to pee

20:20.650 --> 20:26.830
It's got to be somebody just for fun. I

20:26.830 --> 20:27.970
Guess not all right

20:29.410 --> 20:34.130
Yeah, so I guess we can just hop into the price here. So okay

20:34.130 --> 20:37.290
Yeah, we had the we had the cocking D listing we dropped there for a week

20:37.830 --> 20:43.670
Again, this is another reason why I like wave magic so much. She's smashed right into the lower standard deviation area

20:44.530 --> 20:49.650
It's also like, you know, it's also the same spot that we bottomed to the last times that we had the various

20:50.310 --> 20:53.690
Negative price events and then yeah, just came right back to the upside

20:55.070 --> 20:58.790
As of the past like a couple hours, we've had a little bit of a cool off here

20:58.790 --> 21:01.570
But but nothing nothing major so

21:02.590 --> 21:09.210
I would I would imagine that as long as there's no major downside forces for the broad crypto

21:10.310 --> 21:16.370
Markets that we should continue to make it to towards the upside. We're basically at 150, which is the stable coin price of Manero

21:17.290 --> 21:21.210
Occasionally we foray into 170 or maybe even 180 occasionally

21:22.110 --> 21:24.690
Yeah, I mean, obviously, I'd like to see this thing get up to the top side

21:24.690 --> 21:30.230
I honestly I don't care it can go down it can go back down and I can just buy more go up and I can spend more

21:30.710 --> 21:34.210
You know, whatever whatever Manero wants to do here is fine by me

21:34.850 --> 21:37.070
So, um, other than that

21:38.050 --> 21:41.510
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm wondering I'm trying thinking to myself

21:41.510 --> 21:46.970
What's the next thing that they can do to really try and smash Manero's price to the downside apart from, you know

21:46.970 --> 21:48.090
A broader market crash

21:48.710 --> 21:53.070
I'm not seeing much guys like what are they gonna do they're gonna do list in the United States

21:54.490 --> 22:00.470
Maybe maybe maybe what they'll do is they'll find isolated states to then like trying to, you know

22:01.290 --> 22:04.710
Poke it crack in be like, okay. It's not in New York

22:04.710 --> 22:11.690
Let's delist it from California now, right? Like that would be my next guess like if you if I had to make my most educated

22:12.330 --> 22:18.550
Scientific wild ass guess I would say they they might start going after crack into delist in particular states

22:18.550 --> 22:22.590
Where they've got the political will to make that happen. So um

22:23.130 --> 22:27.770
You know, and then of course the first that the first one will be the most impactful because they'll be like, oh my god

22:27.770 --> 22:29.190
Now they're coming for the US

22:29.990 --> 22:33.030
So just keep that in the back of your mind and that could happen

22:34.790 --> 22:38.610
Let's see we have bounced back obviously bounced back a little bit here with

22:39.030 --> 22:44.510
Respect to Bitcoin in terms of the Manero versus Bitcoin price again, you know the same thing with wave magic here

22:44.510 --> 22:48.490
You've got this you form these these bands you form these lower standard deviations

22:48.490 --> 22:52.070
We didn't quite make it all the way down there. You probably can't see that

22:52.070 --> 22:56.730
So I'll draw this. This is the the moving average cluster and these are short-term moving averages, right?

22:56.850 --> 23:00.270
That the longer term ones are on the bigger chart up here, right?

23:00.390 --> 23:03.850
I think you guys can actually see that maybe let me zoom in a little bit here

23:04.810 --> 23:06.190
That might be easier to see

23:06.870 --> 23:12.630
And also, you know, if you're on YouTube you go to the 1080p charts and you'll be able to see the lines much more clearly

23:13.330 --> 23:19.430
Yeah, so that's again why I like the standard deviations why I like this wave magic so much because it really

23:19.430 --> 23:20.950
It really does help you

23:21.490 --> 23:27.910
To visualize where some key levels are it's not perfect and it's despite it's it's nomenclature

23:27.910 --> 23:29.310
It's not exactly magic

23:29.830 --> 23:34.590
But you know, it's the closest thing we got so basically Manero found support here at the moving average cluster

23:35.550 --> 23:38.210
Relative to Bitcoin and we're making a bit of a bounce here

23:38.750 --> 23:44.730
In terms of wave magic, I would probably be targeting this area for like if you're a trader, you know, if you're flipping

23:45.530 --> 23:49.970
Like let's suppose you're you're flipping between Manero and Bitcoin on a regular basis

23:51.370 --> 23:55.050
On on simple swap or some of these other decentralized exchanges

23:55.610 --> 23:57.830
Is this one simple swapping it's a simple swap

23:58.470 --> 24:02.170
Anyways, yeah, I would be looking to hit the standard deviation clusters in blue

24:02.170 --> 24:04.350
And you know, then you might flip back into Bitcoin

24:04.350 --> 24:07.010
I would never ever recommend flipping back into Bitcoin

24:07.010 --> 24:10.830
But if you are so inclined that might be that you would try and do it

24:11.930 --> 24:13.830
Through the delisting

24:13.830 --> 24:19.450
Nonsense basically what's interesting is that nothing changed with the divergences relative tracking

24:19.450 --> 24:21.730
Everyone basically kept their price

24:22.550 --> 24:26.750
Relatively close to cracking polo is still as usual schizophrenic, you know

24:26.750 --> 24:29.770
Just oscillating up and down to the tune of 1%

24:30.550 --> 24:37.170
Around the cracking price, but they probably don't have any Manero anyways, and if they do it's probably it's probably just like bought trading and nonsense

24:37.170 --> 24:39.770
So yeah, they don't really matter that much

24:40.750 --> 24:46.670
Maybe Q coin actually kind of matters. Yeah, actually, you know, let me let me walk a step back here

24:47.160 --> 24:49.050
Q coin and Mexi

24:49.650 --> 24:52.650
Hypothetically if they were gonna try and delist Manero from further exchanges

24:52.650 --> 24:58.990
Those might be somewhat impactful ones because I think that those guys actually do some Manero trading like people actually

24:58.990 --> 25:02.570
I think do trade a little bit on those exchanges. They do have some volume

25:03.210 --> 25:07.410
Especially when Binance shut down, I think Q coin took over a lot of that a lot of that volume

25:08.370 --> 25:11.110
So yeah, I mean that could be a case. I think Q coin is being

25:11.650 --> 25:14.670
Currently attacked by the Fed bullies. I don't know what the latest is on that

25:14.670 --> 25:17.590
That was like maybe almost a year ago that that was happening. So

25:19.690 --> 25:26.390
Manero versus gold continues to be sort of in the on the downside of this trend hanging out largely in between the

25:26.390 --> 25:31.370
Long-term standard deviation lower standard deviation and then the shorter term standard deviation

25:31.370 --> 25:35.710
So that's where it seems to be hanging out gold this week has been largely flat

25:35.710 --> 25:41.390
In fact for the most part markets were relatively flat this week. We'll talk about the macro in a bit

25:42.730 --> 25:44.130
Effectively kind of just neutral

25:45.170 --> 25:48.690
Markets showing a little bit of strength like hey, we're not quite ready to crash yet

25:50.110 --> 25:51.850
Let's see check in the comments

25:52.990 --> 25:56.110
Jack needs to bring jack said need to bring back local Manero

25:56.110 --> 25:58.790
Yeah, it would be nice if local Manero came back

25:58.790 --> 26:04.170
But hey, maybe maybe it's good that they left because when local Manero was that easy for us

26:04.170 --> 26:06.950
We didn't actually do the more properly decentralized

26:08.130 --> 26:09.450
methods of trading right

26:10.270 --> 26:10.690
So

26:11.490 --> 26:15.590
Yeah, I don't know. It's too bad. There was a lot of trust there too with that platform in particular

26:16.510 --> 26:18.950
So, yeah, that's that's basically what the mineral price looks like

26:18.950 --> 26:20.950
Let's take a look at the dominance

26:20.950 --> 26:26.650
Manero dominance looks very similar to Manero versus Bitcoin for obvious reasons Bitcoin dominance has been doing pretty good

26:27.790 --> 26:34.550
Yeah, nothing to see here privacy coins in general. We'll start with Zano. They are still consolidating

26:35.390 --> 26:37.430
After their big run to the upside

26:38.090 --> 26:43.970
There's not a huge impetus at the moment. I think push things too much higher in a general sense

26:44.730 --> 26:46.170
for for the privacy coins

26:47.010 --> 26:49.510
You know, maybe the crack and be listing perhaps

26:49.510 --> 26:54.970
Right, perhaps that that could the reverse reaction from that on a medium term basis

26:54.970 --> 26:57.710
Perhaps that could be the impetus necessary for Zano to go to the upside

26:57.710 --> 27:00.910
but at the moment, you know, this is still consolidation and

27:01.830 --> 27:04.790
I don't know. Let's draw some dubious lines here. Just just because

27:07.870 --> 27:10.050
Though maybe it could look something like that

27:10.050 --> 27:16.870
I mean hypothetically you could see this kind of consolidation pattern happening for the rest of the year on the basis of what we've now seen

27:17.630 --> 27:20.390
For I guess you would say for about a month here. So

27:21.170 --> 27:25.410
Yeah, it would be hard to say I wouldn't be able to tell you that Zano is going to break out sooner or later

27:27.110 --> 27:30.610
But it is kind of a pendant formation that's that's starting to develop here

27:30.910 --> 27:34.930
So yeah patients if you're a Zano holder, I guess I would I would probably still have some patients

27:34.930 --> 27:39.990
This is the kind of like if you bought Zano if you smartly bought down here and you have gains

27:40.650 --> 27:43.090
One it's never wrong to take profit. This is true

27:43.090 --> 27:48.770
But two if you smartly didn't put a significant amount of your net worth in Zano

27:48.770 --> 27:53.210
Like if you if you fucking yoloed onto Zano, then you might take some profits right here

27:53.210 --> 27:56.710
You're up 3x, but if you just put a little bit of cash onto there said, hey, you know

27:56.710 --> 27:58.470
This is an outside player. Maybe it'll hit

27:59.070 --> 28:00.170
If I'm you

28:01.750 --> 28:04.110
I'm me. I'm leaving that in Zano

28:04.110 --> 28:10.170
You're just gonna let that sit for two years guys until one year two year whenever the top of the next blowoff is

28:10.170 --> 28:14.990
You're gonna let that shit sit there because you don't know if this thing can do another 10x, right?

28:15.090 --> 28:18.790
It could hypothetically do another 10x Zano is very low market cap

28:19.290 --> 28:22.850
So this thing could you know, I mean, I'm not saying I'm not predicting 10x, right?

28:22.850 --> 28:29.250
Like please I'm not predicting 100x, but it could stuff that happens, right and in Zano is an interesting project, right?

28:29.410 --> 28:33.470
So it's it's me and run by a guy that was one of the early guys in Monero

28:34.090 --> 28:36.370
He seems like a good dude. He seems like an honest dude

28:36.370 --> 28:42.150
He doesn't give any, you know red flags or Spidey Spidey since tinglies that he's you know in a farious whatever

28:42.650 --> 28:46.590
So the point is anyways guys if you want to make big life-changing gains

28:46.590 --> 28:49.250
You have to give yourself the opportunity to make those gains

28:49.250 --> 28:53.390
And that's why I say like put a small amount of your net worth onto a play like this because

28:53.870 --> 28:58.470
If this thing does do a 5x or 10x from here and you bought some small, you know

28:58.470 --> 29:02.090
You bought some down here. You really could be looking at significant cash for yourself

29:02.490 --> 29:06.350
And because you put a small amount of your net worth. It's like hey if I lose everything

29:06.350 --> 29:10.450
I'm still okay with it, right? That's powerful because it gives you the mindset that says hey

29:10.450 --> 29:12.350
I don't need to touch this. I'm just gonna let it ride whatever

29:13.030 --> 29:16.750
The biggest gains you're gonna make in a lot of cases are gonna be the stuff that you bought

29:16.750 --> 29:20.170
And then you just let it sit and then you woke up one day. You're like, oh wow, that's crazy

29:20.170 --> 29:20.970
I didn't expect that

29:21.470 --> 29:23.490
at least, you know, that's

29:23.490 --> 29:27.570
You know, it's kind of how it's happened for me from time to time. So

29:28.170 --> 29:36.490
Okay, Firo is still doing this probably bottoming pattern. I think we called this a double W bottoming pattern last week

29:37.330 --> 29:40.650
So I don't know if that will play out or not again. I just made that up

29:40.650 --> 29:45.270
I don't think that's in the textbook, but yeah Firo still kind of bottoming

29:46.250 --> 29:48.070
You can kind of look at the wave magic you say, okay

29:48.070 --> 29:53.570
Here's our upper standard deviations on the long term. Here's where they have kind of started to settle out on the short term

29:53.570 --> 29:59.310
So perhaps some kind of consolidation in there. I would say to watch for wherever this thing breaks

29:59.310 --> 30:03.570
I would say that it's probably one break to one side of the other will happen

30:05.010 --> 30:10.470
But hypothetically if Zano ends up in this zone, right break that resistance break that resistance

30:10.470 --> 30:15.590
Break that resistance and then kind of like sits here for a second and consolidates

30:15.590 --> 30:17.850
That's when you know the things about to go up, right?

30:17.910 --> 30:20.250
So that's that's what you'd be looking for to really take along here

30:20.250 --> 30:24.290
If you wanted to you could take a little bit of a long down there just to again small amounts

30:24.290 --> 30:30.050
Not not big amounts and then just let it sit if there's a big crash coming in a general sense

30:30.050 --> 30:35.650
Right, it's possible the bottom on this thing could fall out for a moment here in November December before coming to the upside

30:36.170 --> 30:38.970
That'll be the case for like basically everything that we look at so

30:40.110 --> 30:40.550
Yeah

30:41.630 --> 30:46.150
Pirate chain, I think we talked about last week that's um this thing has this like this crazy

30:46.150 --> 30:52.290
Oscillation going on here to the tune of about 20% I don't know what their liquidity looks like actually, you know

30:52.290 --> 30:55.130
I'm gonna write I'm gonna write this down look at liquidity

30:56.190 --> 30:56.990
for pirate

30:57.970 --> 31:02.190
Because if it's very low liquidity, you wouldn't be able to really leverage this to any significant gains

31:02.190 --> 31:06.950
But because this oscillations because it has these crazy wick oscillations

31:06.950 --> 31:09.110
You could do like some simple math

31:09.110 --> 31:11.410
It doesn't even have to be like the perfectly correct math

31:11.410 --> 31:15.650
It could just be like pleb math and you could say okay, what's the average off oscillation?

31:15.890 --> 31:16.850
What's the standard deviation?

31:17.150 --> 31:23.670
Whatever like what's the the quartile or the 10% oscillation level and then buy and sell on these oscillations

31:23.670 --> 31:28.570
Obviously you need a platform that can support whatever amount of money that you're using to do that with

31:29.430 --> 31:35.830
But if you wanted to you could take advantage of pirate and and these oscillations here and make money on that because that's

31:35.830 --> 31:39.530
That's a very very rapid oscillation that these are these are daily oscillations here

31:39.530 --> 31:44.670
I mean daily wicks you could just like set an alert if you wanted to probably I would just set orders

31:45.290 --> 31:45.670
maybe

31:45.670 --> 31:52.250
And I always forget what it's called. What's that? What's that exchange that we use a lot that not we use not we but

31:52.970 --> 31:58.210
Like the anarchist in Mexico. We're using it for a while to trade mineral. I always forget the name of it

31:58.210 --> 32:03.130
Well, anyways, obviously, I don't really use it that much trade over remember trade over. Thank you. Thank you, sir

32:03.130 --> 32:05.950
Love trade ogre. Oh really? Okay. Yeah

32:05.950 --> 32:11.410
So I need to get on like trade ogre and and check the pirate volume there because there is money to be made on this chart

32:11.410 --> 32:15.410
If someone wanted to do it someone I don't use it, but I love it just for

32:18.250 --> 32:22.310
Okay, fair enough. Yeah, I kind of feel the same way like I don't really use it

32:22.310 --> 32:26.430
I think I tried once and I was like wait my order is not filling. Oh, there's shit liquidity. Oh, okay

32:26.430 --> 32:29.910
I get it. Maybe the liquidity is better now. I don't know

32:30.970 --> 32:36.550
Let's see. I think we've got a if you want to put the the latest XMR chat we have green tree

32:37.170 --> 32:42.110
Green tree who tipped point zero six five six seven one eight three eight oh two three XMR

32:42.610 --> 32:47.510
He says thank you body last week. You mentioned privacy coins will get lots of attention after the next liquidity expansion

32:47.510 --> 32:54.450
What was the reason you got cut from the stream early? Oh, yeah, man Mexican internet sometimes it just doesn't want to work

32:55.750 --> 32:57.190
Yeah, so the the reason

32:57.850 --> 33:01.150
That privacy coins I think are gonna get a lot more attention is simply because

33:01.650 --> 33:06.230
After all the attacks that we've seen over the past year or so in terms of privacy

33:06.230 --> 33:10.010
I mean they they hit tornado cash and then they hit the samurai guys and

33:10.590 --> 33:13.710
All of the maximalists are kind of saying like oh wait like hmm

33:13.710 --> 33:18.710
Maybe we were I shouldn't say all but a lot of the maximum was and I'm seeing this anecdotally in my own like

33:18.710 --> 33:26.450
Acquaintances my own friends and on the social medias all but the most hard-headed degenerate scumbag moonboy cultist

33:26.450 --> 33:33.150
Maximalists are now kind of like yeah, okay, Minero is Minero does seem kind of reasonable at this point and I

33:34.350 --> 33:42.190
Know anecdotally what I saw in 2021 was very hardened against Minero. Everyone was like. Oh, they're just gonna de-list it

33:42.190 --> 33:44.210
They're just gonna they didn't even say de-list they say ban

33:44.210 --> 33:50.810
They're just gonna ban it and and and and it's gonna be illegal for you to use and it's never gonna go up in price

33:50.810 --> 33:53.410
And so don't use it and and it's only for criminals

33:53.410 --> 33:57.670
I saw all of that shit across like ubiquitously across most of social media

33:57.670 --> 34:03.790
I don't see that anymore what I see is people that are actually like yeah, Minero's an honest and honest project Minero

34:03.790 --> 34:09.770
Minero is a good project like I see positive vibes towards Minero. It's it's giving positive vibes

34:10.590 --> 34:15.570
For Minero, so I know that's anecdotally, but you have to realize that

34:16.610 --> 34:21.610
Anecdotal fallacy is kind of like it's a fallacy of a fallacy in a way like anecdotal

34:22.910 --> 34:28.690
Experience using that to make decisions is not a fallacy as long as you understand the kind of statistical power that it has

34:28.690 --> 34:31.830
And you can at least like kind of estimate

34:31.830 --> 34:32.470
Estimate

34:33.210 --> 34:39.090
How well you have a finger on the pulse of the thing that you're looking at like in a social particularly in this case in a

34:39.090 --> 34:39.650
social sense

34:41.730 --> 34:45.370
All right, I gotta I gotta tell this one because this one's pretty funny

34:46.090 --> 34:51.310
I think maybe I've said this before but let me explain why anecdotal experience how powerful it can actually be

34:51.310 --> 34:56.490
I have a friend a Russian friend and I was like yo like how many people

34:57.070 --> 35:01.610
Like how many black people are there in Russia and she was like none like I said, okay

35:01.610 --> 35:01.810
well

35:02.690 --> 35:03.970
Through your entire life

35:03.970 --> 35:08.830
How many black people in Russia have you ever seen and she was like I don't know like three and so

35:09.090 --> 35:14.210
We did this. Okay. Well the population of Russia is a hundred thousand then I said, okay for a girl this age

35:14.210 --> 35:16.790
How many people is she probably seen in her entire life?

35:17.310 --> 35:20.430
You know in Russia and we did some basic quick math. I said, okay

35:20.430 --> 35:24.490
Maybe there's about 50,000 black people in Russia and then it was like the answer was 40,000

35:24.490 --> 35:29.910
I was like, holy shit like that's that's insanely close on the basis of one person's anecdotal experience

35:29.910 --> 35:31.070
but when you understand

35:32.110 --> 35:37.690
When you understand like the statistical limitation of the power like the statistical power that you have

35:37.690 --> 35:40.650
Then you can actually use your anecdotal experience to make inferences

35:40.650 --> 35:44.150
So that's a nice like little side thing right there on anecdotal fallacies

35:44.150 --> 35:50.170
There's a side rant that has nothing to do with price today, but it's an interesting kind of like anecdote if you will

35:51.470 --> 35:55.370
About about how to use that kind of thing. So to finish up with this answer

35:55.930 --> 36:01.630
We just see broad positivity in in the cryptosphere for Monero that didn't exist in the last bull market

36:02.410 --> 36:09.590
And and people are starting to realize how big the attack that the government has launched against us really is and they want to defend themselves

36:09.590 --> 36:17.150
So it just it just spells like a much higher probability and chance of Monero pumping that and also the fractional reserve game that they played last year

36:17.150 --> 36:21.910
Or last last cycle is really gonna be difficult for them to continue

36:22.410 --> 36:25.030
They can probably probably still have some firepower like I said

36:25.030 --> 36:28.570
It's still there depending on how compromised cracking might be that you know

36:28.570 --> 36:31.310
They might still be able to do things but yeah, I mean just the totality of it

36:31.630 --> 36:38.270
There's a good chance that we do we do very well with this next bull market. Okay continuing nice report Darrow Darrow price

36:38.950 --> 36:44.430
Yeah, has taken a pullback for the last week. Maybe we'll go to the daily. You see Kevin's XMR chat

36:46.630 --> 36:47.590
Kevin's oh

36:47.590 --> 36:49.270
No, I did not thank you. Sorry

36:50.230 --> 36:51.270
Okay, so Kevin

36:52.290 --> 36:52.770
tipped

36:52.770 --> 37:00.650
16 cents point zero zero one Monero does future trading futures trading of XMR on these exchanges still affect Monero prices

37:01.250 --> 37:02.810
After delisting XMR

37:03.630 --> 37:05.250
Let me think about this for a second

37:07.690 --> 37:13.110
Is there going to be futures trading of XMR and these changes because Binance still allows some

37:13.790 --> 37:21.190
Futures trading on XMR doesn't it? Okay? So clearly I don't know. I haven't checked. Let me let me make a note here to

37:22.070 --> 37:30.130
Futures trading on delisted. I mean usually futures trading would imply the ability to settle in the asset itself

37:30.650 --> 37:33.370
If you can't do that then it's really just a derivative contract

37:34.050 --> 37:38.850
But futures trading on delisted exchanges. I'm gonna check that out because maybe that's there

37:39.530 --> 37:42.270
But if they're doing futures trading, I would say

37:42.970 --> 37:43.670
probably not

37:45.210 --> 37:51.610
It seems like the only thing that they could be doing is derivatives trading which is settled completely outside of

37:52.470 --> 37:56.770
You know of Monero itself, right? Like there's no there's no Monero deposited

37:56.770 --> 38:03.850
You might deposit Bitcoin to make a bet on what the Monero price is going to do and use your Bitcoin or your tether as collateral

38:04.390 --> 38:05.570
for the contract

38:06.250 --> 38:10.590
But but the but you don't actually you'd never be able to settle in XMR

38:10.590 --> 38:15.450
You'd never be able to put up XMR as the collateral for that trade and as such

38:15.450 --> 38:21.770
It might do something like take away from the volume like people that want to swing trade Monero might go to those

38:21.770 --> 38:26.990
Platforms to swing trade the derivatives contract, but because there's no real Monero involved there

38:26.990 --> 38:28.210
I would think that it should have

38:28.210 --> 38:34.670
The only impact that it would have is sort of secondary in the sense that those people aren't trading real Monero anymore

38:35.210 --> 38:38.210
Whereas they might have comprised some kind of volume

38:39.010 --> 38:40.930
Towards like a larger order book

38:41.990 --> 38:46.490
So perhaps in one way you would say it might help volatility

38:47.030 --> 38:54.330
To be lower because the swing traders the D gens have gone elsewhere to pure derivatives contracts at the same time though

38:54.330 --> 38:56.030
That's less liquidity on the order book

38:56.590 --> 38:59.290
And less liquidity implies more volatility. So

38:59.830 --> 39:04.770
Probably there's some complex equation analysis that well, I just haven't done probably not going to do it

39:05.290 --> 39:08.110
I couldn't even say that I'm smart enough to do it in the first place

39:08.110 --> 39:10.690
Or that I would even have the proper information

39:11.170 --> 39:15.430
To try and hazard such an analysis, but yeah, there's your answer there

39:16.490 --> 39:19.930
Let's see Darrow. I don't know. I don't have anything to say about Darrow. Let's just not even cover it right now

39:19.930 --> 39:26.650
Zcash. Hey Zcash made a little little come back here after it tagged these lower standard deviations has come back

39:26.650 --> 39:29.970
15% wait wait the Zcash dip

39:32.650 --> 39:36.950
Maybe this is just happenstance, but it looks like Zcash dipped with Monero when

39:37.530 --> 39:40.410
When Kraken announced the delisting of Monero in the EU

39:40.410 --> 39:44.330
But there was no announcement of delisting of Zcash in the EU

39:44.330 --> 39:48.670
So, I don't know what's going on there, but okay Zcash. Yeah, I guess

39:49.790 --> 39:56.350
Whatever, okay, so let's go to let's go to daddy. Let's go to daddy coin, which is not Tate coin, but Bitcoin obviously

39:57.310 --> 40:02.770
Just joking. Okay, so we're still in this like boring broad broadening structure range, right?

40:02.830 --> 40:04.970
We were still in this sort of like capping descending line

40:06.830 --> 40:09.690
and I don't see any reason to think that this should be broken in

40:10.370 --> 40:14.910
The immediate future here. I think that it makes sense for this to continue trading in this fashion

40:15.810 --> 40:22.350
This is kind of resembling to what we saw in 2020 at the end of 2020 Bitcoin hadn't quite broken out yet

40:23.590 --> 40:24.030
and

40:24.030 --> 40:27.010
And Bitcoin was really just kind of capped for a period of time

40:27.630 --> 40:29.930
In a narrow range until it finally broke out

40:30.550 --> 40:31.430
so yeah, we're

40:32.230 --> 40:38.970
It might be the case that Bitcoin is just not going to break this range until the next liquidity expansion event is upon us and again

40:39.690 --> 40:43.470
I really am targeting November December for this thing to happen

40:44.830 --> 40:46.110
You know, obviously

40:46.110 --> 40:49.350
That's that's my best guess and it's a difficult thing

40:49.350 --> 40:56.050
It's a it's a very very low probability thing to call a market crash like that's unless it's like incipients and happening

40:56.050 --> 41:01.190
In the present moment or just you know, just getting started. It's pretty hard to predict a market crash

41:01.750 --> 41:02.270
in

41:03.310 --> 41:06.970
In the macro markets in the stock markets your probability of doing it's very low

41:06.970 --> 41:09.050
nevertheless, I still think that

41:09.690 --> 41:14.110
All of the indicators are there. It's a question of if not when at this point and so in my mind

41:14.110 --> 41:21.390
I'm saying well the win should be here in the next couple months. I think that makes the most sense, but again guys, you know, I'm

41:21.870 --> 41:22.490
I'm not

41:24.510 --> 41:28.910
I'm not no strudamus. Okay. I'm not like like I don't know everything. Okay, so anyways

41:28.910 --> 41:32.310
Yeah, Bitcoin is just consolidating here. Probably will continue to consolidate

41:32.310 --> 41:35.550
It does look like it's like slightly on the positive end of the server

41:35.550 --> 41:41.130
It almost looks like maybe maybe it wants to get up here if you see it doing that kind of that kind of

41:41.530 --> 41:44.630
Trading and then it does that. Okay, then maybe it can come to the upside

41:46.350 --> 41:51.870
But yeah, I don't have any opinions exactly how to trade Bitcoin right now and my personal opinion

41:51.870 --> 41:57.410
That would be kind of no man's land like in terms of the way that I like to think about markets and trade and get into positions

41:57.850 --> 42:02.050
That's a no man's land position for me. I would just say as that's a no trade

42:02.050 --> 42:05.790
I would look for something else something that has great a clarity. What the hell?

42:06.550 --> 42:10.370
Okay, maybe has there been I maybe haven't been following closely enough, but

42:11.650 --> 42:16.750
FTT just pumped like insanely that that is a lot. That's a seven standard deviation pump

42:17.610 --> 42:18.430
for FTT

42:20.370 --> 42:25.870
Maybe there's some resolution to the trial or like the speculation of a resolution people are gonna get paid back man

42:25.870 --> 42:29.870
I don't know that's crazy. Oh crap. Let's go look at it. Let's go look at it actually

42:32.130 --> 42:33.710
Which one do I want to destroy?

42:36.090 --> 42:36.970
FTT USDT

42:38.450 --> 42:44.070
How much did they gain? Ah, it's only a 2x. Okay, they've been really flat for the past like year

42:44.070 --> 42:50.750
So I guess that would kind of explain it. Um, all right. Well, there's your shit coin for the boys and girls

42:50.750 --> 42:55.530
FTT apparently is the coin to have bought into a shorting FTT boys

42:56.950 --> 43:00.890
Yeah, maybe you could short it now. I'm not sure if shorting would be I wouldn't know

43:01.710 --> 43:02.370
It's too late

43:02.990 --> 43:09.050
Oh, it's it's not like hypothetically. Oh, yeah, I mean in terms of like the long term. Let's go back to if we're gonna buy

43:09.050 --> 43:10.950
Yeah, no, I

43:10.950 --> 43:15.890
Mean, yeah, if you if you were to take a short right there. What was that? Oh, that was 2022. Oh shit

43:15.890 --> 43:17.950
You know what? I was short FTT there

43:17.950 --> 43:21.510
That was that was one of the tokens I was short and I was playing with cross-margin

43:21.510 --> 43:26.330
I got wiped out because dog did a 2x when Musk bought Twitter. I was so sad. I was like fuck

43:27.250 --> 43:30.410
I was like that was kind of one of the last times I was playing with leverage

43:30.990 --> 43:35.830
But I was I was like experimenting with cross-margin. I was short a whole bunch of stuff including dog

43:36.330 --> 43:40.550
But then when dog pump 2x, it just wiped me out. It wiped out all of my short positions

43:40.550 --> 43:46.010
So I was pretty sad at that moment because it wasn't a huge amount, but it wasn't an inconsequential amount

43:46.010 --> 43:48.950
I would have made a pretty penny if I hadn't gotten wiped out and liquidated

43:49.610 --> 43:51.650
on that one confession times

43:51.650 --> 43:56.030
Confessions of body on the price report. Okay, you know what? Let's go to the Bitcoin

43:56.830 --> 44:00.710
Bitcoin versus gold. So someone last week had asked me to do

44:01.390 --> 44:06.430
The regression analysis not on the Bitcoin usd chart, but in the Bitcoin versus gold chart

44:06.430 --> 44:10.630
And I got to tell you there's only two lines here. We've got the bottom and the top line, right?

44:10.690 --> 44:11.610
We've only got the boundaries

44:12.610 --> 44:16.150
This regression is not nearly as clean as the regression

44:17.510 --> 44:22.790
Bitcoin versus the US dollar which is kind of surprising because you think that gold might introduce some kind of stability there

44:22.790 --> 44:27.930
I don't know why that that it hasn't but at any rate. This is kind of what it looks like

44:29.490 --> 44:36.910
You know, I trust this chart less than I trust the the US dollar regression analysis simply again because

44:37.470 --> 44:42.230
It's this chart is not as clean. I had to do some more arbitrary stuff and like

44:42.930 --> 44:44.410
I won't get into all of it

44:44.410 --> 44:48.950
But like there were some things I had to do that you would consider to be somewhat dubious in a mathematical sense

44:49.670 --> 44:56.770
So it's like you sort of border on on the edge of applying the tool incorrectly and in doing so in statistics

44:56.770 --> 45:00.410
You might completely invalidate whatever thing you think that you have

45:01.030 --> 45:03.730
That you have arrived at whatever conclusions you might have arrived at

45:04.350 --> 45:09.910
Nevertheless with my disclaimer out of the way so that the financial bros don't sue me

45:11.250 --> 45:16.790
For all my financial advice. Yeah, we are actually looking like we're approaching the the lower boundary here

45:16.790 --> 45:22.930
So in a sense, it almost looks like it's about time to flip your gold into Bitcoin

45:22.930 --> 45:30.810
But when it's time to flip your gold in the Bitcoin it that really means it's time to flip your gold into probably some other higher beta higher volatility

45:31.350 --> 45:33.470
Higher risk higher reward cryptocurrency

45:35.530 --> 45:38.170
In in a very slight way this kind of makes me think that

45:39.270 --> 45:40.170
We again

45:40.170 --> 45:47.330
This is like the slightest of point in favor of the crash of some kind of like liquidity intervention could be coming sooner rather than later

45:47.890 --> 45:52.790
Because when the liquidity intervention kicks off Bitcoin is going to outperform gold gold has been outperforming Bitcoin here

45:52.790 --> 45:54.550
For a while now for like most of the year

45:56.050 --> 45:58.810
Gold will continue going up after the liquidity event intervention

45:58.810 --> 46:04.490
But so will Bitcoin but the thing that gold does gold likes to start going up before the crisis happens

46:04.490 --> 46:11.850
We've seen this classically now since 2008 gold will go up and then and then the rest of the markets will tend to follow

46:11.850 --> 46:15.730
There will be a crash it will be limited for gold gold will continue going up

46:15.730 --> 46:17.530
But then the rest of the markets will start catching up

46:17.530 --> 46:21.990
So if we get a crash here this this chart is telling you that that yeah

46:21.990 --> 46:25.930
It's it's about time to flip your gold into into crypto or into Bitcoin

46:25.930 --> 46:34.310
So I think that's an interesting thing that's against not totally not as totally airtight of a statistical case that I would like it to be

46:34.310 --> 46:40.790
But but perhaps a signal perhaps useful. So yeah, that's Bitcoin versus gold on their aggression analysis

46:41.730 --> 46:43.450
With that, let's go ahead and take a look at the macro

46:43.450 --> 46:46.350
I think we're starting to get long in the tooth here on this report

46:46.350 --> 46:49.350
So we'll try and power speed through the macro stuff

46:49.950 --> 46:54.550
Gold as we talked about has now touching that that resistance line

46:54.550 --> 46:58.830
This is completely expected for it to have a little bit of resistance here

46:58.830 --> 47:05.710
Given that given the how long this chart pattern is again going back to 1980 with the first gold blowoff

47:05.710 --> 47:09.270
After Nixon protected us against the speculators

47:09.270 --> 47:15.350
Which is what he told us he was doing where they allowed gold to float where they depict gold from the US dollar completely

47:15.930 --> 47:17.090
Still this chart

47:17.610 --> 47:20.390
We're gonna go we are in a bullish gold scenario here

47:20.990 --> 47:25.010
Technically speaking it could take until the end of the decade for this chart pattern to break

47:25.010 --> 47:30.570
It probably won't take that long given that that the next liquidity expansion is probably upon us

47:30.570 --> 47:32.310
This thing is gonna eventually break probably

47:32.810 --> 47:37.390
Find some resistance find some support and then maybe go to the upside or maybe it just doesn't even care

47:37.390 --> 47:38.730
Maybe just breaks it who knows whatever

47:39.930 --> 47:43.150
Yeah, so the theme with the macro for this week is that

47:43.150 --> 47:50.430
Hold on to your crash thesis. It's not quite yet, right? That's that's kind of the idea of what I saw this week

47:51.130 --> 47:58.810
So we had the reverse repos going towards the upside. That's people leaving risk going into the safety of putting their money with the Federal Reserve

47:58.810 --> 48:02.770
Yes, yes, I know ha ha the safety of bonds

48:04.250 --> 48:05.450
Please please a kid

48:05.450 --> 48:13.130
But in the traditional perspective and in very real perspective being in a yielding in a bond that yields five percent

48:14.650 --> 48:18.810
Is better than being in a crash and a crash scenario in the stock market, right?

48:19.130 --> 48:21.950
And the government's good for it. They're just gonna print the money to pay the bond anyways

48:21.950 --> 48:23.770
So it's like in a way it is kind of safe

48:24.330 --> 48:25.310
It's a safety play

48:25.310 --> 48:30.190
But so people had done the safety play like the big money had done the safety play for a period of time

48:30.190 --> 48:33.150
And this was actually a strong movement, but that came back down this week

48:33.150 --> 48:37.330
So it's like, okay, that is that is probably money that left safety and went to risk, right?

48:37.410 --> 48:38.890
So went to the stock market effectively

48:39.590 --> 48:44.770
Obviously not crypto descriptive didn't really pump I would also hazard to say that

48:44.770 --> 48:52.710
There is a broadening structure now happening on the reverse repos and that implies uncertainty and ever

48:53.610 --> 48:59.470
Increasing oscillation of volatility. I don't know which way this is gonna go in a crash scenario

48:59.470 --> 49:04.810
Probably this thing goes to the direction to the upside because people seek the safety of Federal Reserve

49:04.810 --> 49:07.490
You get the overnight rate federal funds rate for doing that

49:08.450 --> 49:12.330
Yeah, so that's basically a broadening structure. I'm not really convinced how much

49:13.530 --> 49:15.690
Technical analysis is

49:15.690 --> 49:20.230
Valid on this particular chart, but I think there's probably some validity to it

49:20.230 --> 49:28.170
So yeah, this might increase this broadening megaphone pattern here might indicate some kind of uncertainty in the market in general

49:29.310 --> 49:33.750
Let's see here Dixie so the dollar index interestingly enough the dollar index came back

49:34.450 --> 49:37.030
Just ticked up a little bit, but nothing crazy

49:37.770 --> 49:42.310
Which is the fact that gold actually held a stable price, right gold held

49:43.610 --> 49:47.590
Basically kept it was flat throughout the week. It didn't really go down. It didn't go up much

49:48.470 --> 49:51.510
Even though the dollar index pumped and usually these are anti correlated

49:51.510 --> 49:54.630
So that's actually strength that gold is showing here the fact the dollar index went up

49:55.250 --> 50:01.330
But gold held its own that that that kind of implies a kind of strength that the gold performed with there

50:01.850 --> 50:04.690
And then bonds. So the other thing too is that is that bonds?

50:06.510 --> 50:13.630
The rate bond rates actually yields went up a little bit which indicates people leaving bonds slightly and going into risk assets, right?

50:14.370 --> 50:17.930
Because rates 10 bond rates tend to go up as people sell the bonds

50:17.930 --> 50:24.210
So yeah, the rates going up means that people were probably leaving a little bit bonds to go into risk in terms of the inversion

50:24.210 --> 50:25.330
We still are

50:26.110 --> 50:29.970
That one of our measurements here went down a little bit one of our measurements went up

50:29.970 --> 50:33.710
So overall that was flat and then we had also talked about oil

50:34.330 --> 50:39.770
Previously we said hey it fell out of its trend. It actually got back into its trend as of this past week

50:39.770 --> 50:43.730
That was a big bump on the oil price. So again, it's kind of like the macro saying yeah

50:43.730 --> 50:49.150
Not quite yet like okay the signs are there, but but maybe we're not quite ready to crash just yet

50:49.150 --> 50:52.510
But that's you know, that's just one week of of new data

50:52.510 --> 50:57.350
So we got to see how things unfold who knows what kind of shenanigans might be going into the election

50:57.940 --> 51:03.930
And what kinds of things like they might get kind of bullshit that might try to get pulled or whatever right like who knows

51:04.710 --> 51:08.450
Stock markets the S&P put on I wouldn't say a new all-time high

51:08.450 --> 51:11.710
But I mean closing close the week at its all-time highs effectively

51:12.710 --> 51:15.850
NASDAQ still up but still kind of underperforming the S&P overall

51:18.950 --> 51:20.810
So you know one thing also again

51:21.730 --> 51:25.890
The the unemployment we remember we talked about the unemployment that once it's passed a certain point

51:25.890 --> 51:30.970
It it tends to spike up and that is like and that's it right like that's the recession. That's the that's the crash

51:31.610 --> 51:34.370
Right now. We've actually had one two months

51:34.370 --> 51:41.070
So we've had the past two months where the unemployment actually came down. So unemployment is not ticking up anymore and perhaps

51:42.110 --> 51:47.370
You know, perhaps the market isn't totally sure yet. Hey, this thing's gonna crash. Oh, and also by the way remember guys

51:47.990 --> 51:48.870
remember that

51:50.810 --> 51:52.590
That we don't we don't necessarily

51:53.170 --> 51:57.510
We don't necessarily know exactly like when this is gonna happen, right? Again, I'm speculating

51:58.490 --> 52:04.710
Okay, so another thing that slightly bothers me about the unemployment chart is that in almost all cases when it was time for the crash to happen

52:04.710 --> 52:09.970
So counter counter thesis time when it was time for the crash to happen. We didn't see really any major pullback

52:11.050 --> 52:17.050
We didn't see a big pullback of the unemployment. It just continued spiking may be like right here just a little bit

52:17.050 --> 52:23.090
But that was one two months wait hang on one two three months where it pulled back for a period of time

52:23.090 --> 52:29.770
So if the next unemployment numbers continue to drop or stay flat, you know, that's maybe you know

52:29.770 --> 52:34.850
I'll have to I'll have to note that as a counterpoint to my thesis here of crash sooner than later

52:35.930 --> 52:42.850
Okay, with that, I don't think we have much else to talk about here mineral transactions still 25,000 looks like our little bump up here

52:43.410 --> 52:49.490
Above 30 that was just a temporary for a and now we're back down to our stable transaction levels

52:49.490 --> 52:51.030
Which appears to be 25,000

52:52.430 --> 52:55.030
And I'll check the chats make sure I haven't missed anybody

52:57.390 --> 53:00.050
No, okay crash to the upside oh

53:00.990 --> 53:05.650
Yeah, okay, so fairly fairly reasonable investor on YouTube says crash to the upside question mark

53:06.210 --> 53:07.310
Yeah, I mean

53:08.030 --> 53:16.070
Don't forget that in the last in 2019 the markets did massively pump before the the medical intervention happened

53:16.070 --> 53:18.090
In 2020 March of 2020

53:19.110 --> 53:21.450
Markets did just smash to the upside, right?

53:21.650 --> 53:27.030
So you have to keep that in mind because it is possible that you could be sitting on the sidelines waiting for a crash

53:27.030 --> 53:30.530
Even as the market pumps and then if and if the dip doesn't happen, right?

53:30.590 --> 53:34.130
If you're waiting for the dip and the dip never comes then like you've just you just lost out

53:34.130 --> 53:39.370
Which is why I'm like, okay have something in the markets, but also have some cash on hand have a strategy be prepared

53:41.010 --> 53:44.130
And yeah with that guys, I'm gonna hand it back to do everything right

53:45.050 --> 53:47.870
Yeah, just make no mistakes and you'll you'll win

53:50.010 --> 53:54.230
There's actually a lot of truth to that though like in and almost any sport and anything you do

53:54.830 --> 53:59.430
Like if you're new at something the first thing to do is to stop making mistakes or make fewer mistakes

53:59.430 --> 54:04.970
Like in the winter hitting, you know smashing the the best shot throwing the perfect punch

54:05.930 --> 54:09.350
Yeah, I mean definitely you should be aiming for that

54:09.350 --> 54:15.830
But the first thing is fix your mistakes and that will that will yield you far better gains in any endeavor that you do

54:16.670 --> 54:19.970
Before necessarily trying to you know to hit all the winners

54:22.850 --> 54:26.650
Life advice with Baudi and I just don't make mistakes

54:28.370 --> 54:32.790
All right, man amazing as always, thank you. Thank you

54:33.530 --> 54:36.330
Thank you for that that being that beacon of

54:37.050 --> 54:40.690
Guidance during these tumultuous times as always body

54:41.270 --> 54:45.630
For steering us through these these hard times in the narrow land

54:47.130 --> 54:52.310
Yeah, anybody that's that's concerned about these things. Yeah, you didn't know what you signed up for guys

54:52.310 --> 54:57.150
I mean when narrow is is not welcomed on centralized exchanges and

54:58.010 --> 55:01.270
There are arguments for why it is better off that way. So

55:02.170 --> 55:07.610
It's awesome about how naive I was when I got into Monero and started like participating in the community

55:08.190 --> 55:11.050
I don't know. This is back in 2018. I guess 2019

55:11.990 --> 55:16.110
Yeah, I mean I even back then I didn't even have my bearings that well on on markets

55:16.110 --> 55:20.090
Like I mean I had like the fuzzy idea of the beginnings, you know

55:20.090 --> 55:23.570
What would sort of become the broad headline structure of how I see markets?

55:23.690 --> 55:28.270
But I didn't I had no idea that we were in in store for this kind of battle for all the stuff

55:28.270 --> 55:31.650
That was that was gonna happen with Monero with all these two listings and you know

55:31.650 --> 55:35.050
The fractional reserve and I had no idea that the cryptocurrency space was

55:35.910 --> 55:41.070
So that there were so many nefarious players behind the scenes screwing with with price and screwing with everything

55:41.570 --> 55:42.450
But you live you learn

55:43.570 --> 55:45.290
So naive you were so naive

55:46.610 --> 55:49.170
Yeah, I think I think it's been a shock for all of us

55:49.770 --> 55:55.250
But you know from the get-go, right? This this thing was always meant to be adversarial versus the state. So

55:57.170 --> 56:00.410
For for a crypto to function, we knew that there had to be a

56:01.150 --> 56:03.830
Major battle but that would that would be taking place at some point

56:04.530 --> 56:08.350
It's funny Monero was so good that in a way it kind of forced us all to walk the walk

56:08.850 --> 56:10.910
We didn't like we like we talked about it

56:10.910 --> 56:15.550
But I don't think we expected that like that was that this was gonna be the path and then Monero was like

56:15.550 --> 56:17.690
It was so good that we said well

56:17.690 --> 56:22.970
It sort of forced us to to bring our actions and our thinking into alignment with

56:23.390 --> 56:24.330
Know with what it was

56:25.350 --> 56:30.030
But don't take that to mean I'm saying Monero's a deity guys, please no maximalism. We're not evangelists

56:32.090 --> 56:32.490
Although

56:35.330 --> 56:38.950
You say you're like hey spread the word and like yeah, we're not evangelists

56:38.950 --> 56:42.910
That's kind of the problem, right like we saw the maximalist stuff and now we're like no

56:42.910 --> 56:45.310
No, I'm not an evangelist, but maybe we got a

56:45.550 --> 56:47.310
Little bit more on the marketing side

56:49.070 --> 56:52.830
Yeah, I don't think there's anything wrong with that, you know, you obviously it depends how you're marketing

56:52.830 --> 56:59.530
We just want people to know this utility exists the option exists Monero's digital cash. I

56:59.530 --> 57:01.330
Just want they can pump my bags

57:03.410 --> 57:07.010
Yeah, we're being brutally honest about it. Yeah come pump our bags
