Massive shout out to everyone today in the live chat. Please let me know where you're tuning in from. And at the end of the show, I'm going to be reading everyone's comments out loud. Let's kick off today's show with our market watch as we do each and every day, the entire crypto market back in the green with Bitcoin back above $27 ,100 and checking out coinmarketcap .com, the current crypto market cap on the climb at $1 .08 trillion with roughly $27 billion in volume for the past 24 hours, Bitcoin dominance at 49 .2 % and the Ether dominance at 18 .4%.

And checking out the crypto greed and fear index, we're currently rated at 46 in fear, same as 37 in fear. So there you have it. How many of you are pretty stoked for this most recent pump? And how many of you agree with Stacey Herbert that this pump is due to Bukele's speech scheduled for this evening? Let me know, fam. And now let's dive into today's Bitcoin technical analysis. Check out the charts and what's popping with the king crypto. Bitcoin could see fresh upside volatility as the price action and the strength revisits a key level according to a classic metric. In a new post, John Bollinger, creator of the Bollinger Bands volatility indicator, says Bitcoin was positioned for a breakout decision. That's right. After hitting new September highs the day prior, Bitcoin has been challenging resistance levels out of reach since mid -August, according to data from Cointelegraph and TradingView. Now for Bollinger, the signs for Bitcoin are encouraging. Bollinger Bands use a standard deviation around the simple moving average to determine both the likely price ranges and volatility. And as Michael Saylor once said, volatility equals life force. Now, currently Bitcoin is putting in daily candles that touch the upper band. And when this happens, it can signal an imminent reversal back to the center band, or conversely, an inbound fit of upside volatility. Now narrow Bollinger Bands seen on Bitcoin recently lend weight to hopes that the latter scenario will now play out, quitting him here. And then there is the first tag of the upper Bollinger Band. After the new set of controlling bars were established at the lower band, he commented alongside this chart, the question is now, can we walk up to the upper band or is it too early to answer? What are your thoughts, chat? Let me know in the comments below. Now Bollinger characterizes the current mood among seasoned Bitcoin traders and analysts on the short -term timeframes. Despite the strength seen this week, caution abounds as various trend lines previously acting as support remain above the spot price. Now discussing the situation, we had on -chain monitoring resource, material indicators share the following. We have heavy technical resistance overhead at the key moving averages and support at the lower low. It is quite possible that we round trip the range. And with any luck, we'll see a legit test of the RS levels that will give us some clarity on where Bitcoin goes from here before the end of the week. And they also shared here in update number two, as noted earlier, it appears the Bitcoin bulls are gaining some momentum, but things are not always as they seem and goes on to share that sometime after last night's candle and close open, we've seen a new trend precognition signal develop on the daily chart and it seems to be bullish. I mean, we are breaking out. We are above 27 ,000. So let's freaking go. And also more strong foundation on the technicals. You can see Bitcoin hits yet another all -time high, which virtually means the network has never been this strong and this secure. Now I'm pretty stoked to tune into President Bukele's speech to the UN this evening. What do you think he has to share besides? I told you so. Let me know, fam. And again, welcome to everyone just joining us for the live show. Lots to continue to cover. So let's continue breaking it down. Next, let's discuss this adoption fund, which is a pretty big deal coming out of Japan. Let's go check this out. Japan's largest investment bank, Numura's digital asset subsidiary, Laser Digital Asset Management, launched the Bitcoin adoption fund specifically for the institutional investors. Bring it. The official announcement noted the Bitcoin -based fund will be the first in a range of digital adoption investment solutions that the firm plans to introduce. Now Numura is a Japanese financial giant with over $500 billion worth of assets, which basically that's half a trillion, baby, offers brokerage services to leading institutional investors. The Bitcoin fund launched by its digital asset arm will now offer investors direct exposure to BTC. The Laser Digital Bitcoin Adoption Fund offers long key exposure to Bitcoin. The financial giant has chosen Kamanu as its regulated custody partner. The Bitcoin fund is a portion of Laser Digital Fund's segregated portfolio company that has been registered as a mutual fund in accordance with the Cayman Islands regulatory authority. Now, Laser Digital Asset Management head Sebastian said the Bitcoin is one of the enablers of this long -lasting transformational change and long -term exposure to Bitcoin offers a solution for the investors to capture this macro trend. Now, the Bitcoin adoption fund might be the first of its kind launched by Numura and the digital asset arm, but the Japanese investment banking giant has been investing in the digital asset ecosystem for quite some time already. In fact, September of last year, the firm launched its digital asset venture capital arm to stay at the forefront of digital innovation. And also won Dubai's virtual asset regulatory authority license to operate in the country. The long -only Bitcoin adoption fund for investors in Japan comes amid a growing discussion around Bitcoin -based investment products from regulated and mainstream financial giants. The United States SEC approved two Bitcoin ETFs, even though there is a delayed decision specifically on the spot. Bitcoin ETFs. What's up with that, Mr. Gensler? Just saying. And apart from the US, Canada and focused investment products over the past couple of years. So there you have it, mass adoption, let's freaking go, especially on the institutional level. How many of you are in Japan? I know we have some in our audience out there. Let me know. And have you ever heard of this company before? Any plans in investing through them? Let me know how you guys feel. And now let's break down the latest. It gets more surprising and shocking every day with what all is going on with Bankman -Fried and FTX. Now his parents are involved. His parents are being sued by FTX. And it's just a nightmare of a mess, to say the least. So let's break down this latest story regarding SBF. Now, Joseph Bankman, the father of the former FTX CEO, Sam Bankman -Fried, complained to his son about the salary he was receiving during his employment at FTX US, turning the issue into a family matter. In a September 18 filing with the US Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware, FTX debtors filed a complaint against Bankman and Barbara Fried, alleging that SBF's parents misappropriated millions of dollars through their involvement in the exchange's business. And according to the court documents, Bankman's contract with FTX US should have provided a $200 ,000 annual salary following a leave of absence from the Stanford Law School in December 2021. However, Bankman seemed to express ignorance about the terms of the contract, claiming to both FTX US and his son that he was expecting a $1 million annual salary. What about all that property in the Bahamas, fam? What about all that? Hundreds of millions worth of properties? Just wanted to throw that out there. The complaint states that Bankman was putting Barbara on this, suggesting that SBF's mother may have been able to persuade her son to follow through with the salary change. Things get even more interesting. So according to the complaint, Bankman's influence paid off, with SBF later providing his parents $10 million from Alameda Research. Can you talk about commingling? A 16 .4 million property in the Bahamas, funded by FTX Trading, the ability to expense roughly $90 ,000 to FTX Trading on the island nation in the Bahamas, and options to purchase company stock. Now, when reached out to the legal team representing Bankman and Fried, but did not receive a response at the time, unfortunately, the legal action brought by the debtors was the latest in the bankruptcy case involving FTX and many of its subsidiaries filed in November of last year. Bankman Fried also faces 12 criminal charges to be spread across two trials, starting in October of 2023, which is right around the corner, fam, and March of 2024, right before the halving, scheduled for April of next year. And since the federal judge revoked his bail in August, Bankman Fried has been largely confined to the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn. Where's Brooklyn at? Before the start of his October trial, then on September 19th, a three -judge panel heard an appeal from SPF's legal team requesting the former FTX CEO to be released from jail in order to prepare for the trial, citing the lack of internet access and first amendment issues. All I got to say is this, I mean, how many people realistically have access to the internet in jail? Why should he? Million dollar question right there. But what are your thoughts, fam? How do you think this is likely to play out? And do you think that Bankman Fried's parents are just as guilty as SPF himself with the commingling and the fraud of going up north of $30 billion, making it the biggest scam in history that we're aware of? Hence why we call him Mini Madoff, because he made off with billions of dollars worth of investors' money, and Gary Gensler and the SEC was protecting him behind closed doors. So it's going to be very interesting to see how all this is likely to play out. Now let's discuss post halving. We all know there is a halving scheduled roughly six months out. We all know post halving, the price action is most likely going to reach a new all -time high and enter price discovery mode. Well, this analyst shares a very intriguing target. So let's break this down, shall we? And welcome to y 'all just joining us. Say hello in that live chat. Let me know where you're tuning in from. I stream live here seven days a week from Puerto Rico. Synonymous analyst Rhett Capital tells his followers on X that Bitcoin can rally above $80 per ,000 coin in the months following next month's event. For the halving, send it. Let's go. The Bitcoin halving cuts the Bitcoin miners' rewards in half, as we all know, expected to take place in April of next year. And while Rhett Capital is a long -term bull on Bitcoin, he notes that it is possible for Bitcoin to continue its downtrend before the halving, putting him here. Hang in there and make the most of any deeper downside in this pre halving period. You won't see the post halving parabola in the outlines here in this chart. It shows you in the yellow, the pre halving period, then in the pink, the post halving resistance, and then in the green, you can see the post halving parabola when we hit those new all -time highs. Now, Rhett notes that Bitcoin may repeat its 2019 bear market cycle when it traded within a triangle pattern before breaking out and starting off the bull market, as he shares here, if Bitcoin continues to form lower highs, could Bitcoin fill the CME, which is the Chicago Mercantile Exchange gap, at $20 ,000 later this year or in early 2024? So it makes a good point. There is currently a gap sitting at that $20 ,000 psychological level. And he continues, if so, the possible path could be consolidation to the apex of the black triangle before finally breaking out to close the halving. And you can see that triangle right here in this chart. Now, looking at the chart, he seemed to suggest that Bitcoin will confirm the triangle breakout in April of 2024, followed by a rally towards his long -term target. Now, let me know your thoughts, chat. How many of you agree that Bitcoin is likely to break out to a new all -time high, entering price discovery mode in 2024, the year of the halving? Let me know. And what are some of your targets? I'd also like to point out that the Stock the Flow model and Plan B, creator of that model, he suggests a $100 to $1 million range price for the King Crypto post halving. We also have some very other bullish predictions, which I cover on a daily basis here on the channel. But I'd love to know your personal prediction. I think we reached the cycle peak personally sometime in 2025, but I think 2024, we enter that price discovery mode. But I'd love to know your thoughts and your opinions in the comments right down below. And now let's break down our next story of the day and discuss the latest from the macro guru, Raoul Pal, who is suggesting that the Bitcoin market cap and crypto market cap as a whole does something between 5 and 10x for this upcoming bull cycle. Now, you do the math. We have a crypto market cap right now. I'm going to ballpark it at a trillion. We have a Bitcoin market cap. I'm going to ballpark it at a half a trillion, which is 500 billion. So hypothetically, if we were to 10x Bitcoin in and of itself, we're talking about a 5 trillion dollar Bitcoin market cap, which would be half the current market cap of gold. Now, with the entire crypto market cap, we can potentially hit 10 trillion. Now, also note, back in November of 2021, when we hit that all time high of 69 ,000 in November of last year, the total crypto market cap was just north of that 3 trillion dollar market cap. So he's so let's break this down and shout out to Raoul Pal. Here we go. Former Goldman Sachs executive Raoul Pal says the next bull cycle can bring an explosion in the market cap of all of the digital assets. That's right. In a new interview with Altcoin Daily, the macro expert says he expects a huge increase in the adoption of digital assets, and that can cause the total market cap of crypto to skyrocket as much as 900 % from its current value during the next bull market. Quoting the analysts here, obviously, I think we'll go well through new all time highs. I think the whole ecosystem of crypto will go from 425 million users where we're at today. And I think at the end of this cycle, there'll be a billion users by that kind of use cases in which we have talked about. And let's not forget, we have got central bank digital currencies that are known as CBDCs and stable coins. There is a lot going on still. So if this entire space is going to grow 2 .5 X in the number of users, well, the market cap of the entire space is five or 10 X. Send it. Let's go. Pal also says he is closely watching development of layer two Altcoin projects for new use cases, which could boost the value of their individual market cap, quitting him again. And then let's see how people value layer twos in this. We don't really know how layer twos accrue much value. Do we have to have a massive amount of transactions in which case then you need stuff like Ticketmaster with millions and millions and millions of transactions to drive value to those chains because they batched them and batched them down to Ethereum. So there you have it. And to watch this interview, he did Raul Pal, the macro guru with Altcoin Daily entitled best cryptocurrency investing strategy into 2024. Check the show notes, blow the video in the description and let me know your thoughts on his personal prediction. Do you feel post having that the market cap for the entire crypto market can likely 10 X from the current valuation along with Bitcoin surging 10 X to roughly a five trillion market cap? And hypothetically, if the macro guru is correct, where do you think that would likely take the Bitcoin price? Well, let's run some hypothetical math. Bitcoin was the 10 X from the current price action of 27 ,000. Well, that's $270 ,000 per coin. Take that. And as we all know, Bitcoin rises like that, the entire crypto market cap would go along for the ride, including the altcoin. So please let me know in the chat, fam, which altcoins, if any, are you most bullish on in the crypto market? And what are your thoughts surrounding Raul Pal being so bullish on Solana? A few months back, I read in an interview he shared that 80 % or more of his portfolio was specifically in an altcoin called Solana. So I'd love to know your thoughts. Obviously, he has a high risk tolerance as I look at that particular cryptocurrency to be very risky, especially with all that went in with the venture capitalists and SPF and FTX exchange pumping that particular all. So I'd love to know how you feel regarding all of that. And with that being shared, fam, now let's discuss Peter Thiel and his $4 million price prediction, as well as rumor has it, and I'll be covering this as well, that he dumps most of his Bitcoin position at the top of the market practically 30 days before the crash. So let's break this down because Peter Thiel was actually one of the keynote speakers at the Miami Conference for Bitcoin. And here's what he had to share as I transcribed his speech, and then we'll discuss him reportedly making $1 .8 billion cashing out on his eight -year bet around the time he was touting these all -time high predictions. So here we go. He says, the enemy's list is a list of people who I think are stopping Bitcoin. He says there is a lot of them. They tend to have nameless, faceless bureaucratic perspectives, which of course is one of the ways they hide. He goes on to share, we are going to try to expose them and realize that this is sort of what we have to fight for Bitcoin to go up, 10x or 100x from here. Now, just FYI, to give you some perspective, at the time he made this prediction on stage at the Bitcoin Miami Conference, Bitcoin was trading at roughly $43 ,000 per coin. So you run the math. 43 ,000 times 100x is over $4 million per Bitcoin. So you know that? Let's continue with what he had to share. The central banks are going bankrupt. We are at the end of the fiat money regime. How many of you agree with that statement? I agree there 100%. The first person on the list is Berkshire Hathaway CEO, Warren Buffett. Thiel put up a picture of Buffett with two of his most famous quotes about Bitcoin. One was rat poison and the other, I don't own any and I never will. I also like to point out now since then, Warren Buffett has much indirect exposure to Bitcoin through Bitcoin mining stock companies and etc. So go figure. If you can't beat them, join them, right? And he goes on. He opined, I think the direct in it. Yeah, and I say also Charlie Munger goes along with him. Now, feel further noted that Buffett has a bias and makes him long on fiat money system and money managers who follow the Berkshire Hathaway executives advice will pretend it's complicated to invest into Bitcoin. I think we call that FUD. Fear, uncertainty and doubt. Now expect nothing less from one of the wealthiest people in the fiat money matrix Ponzi scheme. You know what I mean? So just saying. The next person on the list of Bitcoin's enemies is the one and only JP Morgan Chase CEO, Jamie Dimon, or as Max Kaiser calls him, Jamie the tapeworm. They'll put diamonds picture up with the following quote. I don't call them crypto currencies. I call them crypto tokens because currencies have rules of law behind them, central banks and tax with authorities. Now you guys already know how I feel personally about JP Morgan Chase CEO, Jamie Dimon. So I won't go any deeper there. But anyways, we know he's an enemy of Bitcoin and always has been. The next picture he put up was of the BlackRock CEO, Larry Fink, with the following quote. I see huge opportunities in a digitized crypto blockchain related currency, and that's where I think it is going to go. Now just FYI, Larry Fink is the CEO of the largest asset management firm in the entire world, which owns a large share in virtually all the companies in the S &P 500, and that is BlackRock. They currently have over $10 trillion in assets under management. And for a long time, he was spreading FUD regarding Bitcoin. But guess what? Like I mentioned earlier, if you can't beat them, join them because they just most recently, a few months ago, they submitted their application for a spot Bitcoin ETF, which ultimately means they're going to be introducing this to the institutions which have trillions upon trillions of dollars as there's currently north of $700 trillion in total addressable market, and they want their piece of the Bitcoin pie. So he goes on to share, the PayPal co -founder added that Fink's quote is somewhat representative of the whole genre of Bitcoin attacks that need further context, stating that pro -blockchain is an anti -Bitcoin term, very typically. Feel then brought up the environmental, social, and governance, ESG standards, elaborating the following, the label they have come up with, and perhaps the real enemy is ESG. I think that ESG is just a hate factory. Also like to throw out there, Elon Musk, he stopped taking Bitcoin payments for Tesla, and he says it's because of the FUD regarding this ESG, and we all know it's not more than FUD, and it's already been proven that Bitcoin is more than 50 % clean energy. So the million dollar question, when will the world's supposedly wealthiest man, Elon Musk, when will he start accepting Bitcoin payments again for Tesla? Isn't that a great question, and wouldn't you love to know the answer to that? Maybe you should ask Elon and tag him on X and see what he says. Anyways, feel stressed. You can always ask the question, what's the difference between ESG and the CCP, the Chinese Communist Party? Well, when you think ESG, you should be thinking of CCP per H. Now, he also goes on to share, it is the finance gentocracy that runs the country through whatever silly virtue signaling or hate factory to them, just like ESG, the billionaire concluded. This is what I would call and what you have to think of as a revolutionary youth movement, and we have to just go out from this conference and take over the world. So there you have it, fam. What are your thoughts surrounding Peter Thiel's prediction that we are likely to 100X, and along with his enemies list, as it seems, a lot of the enemies have come around and now have direct exposure to BTC, but it doesn't stop there because around that time he was making this $4 million Bitcoin price prediction. He allegedly dumped most of his position cashing out and with over a billion dollars in profits for his fund. So let's also break this down as this is also very relevant. How many of you were able to watch the speech he gave at that Bitcoin conference? It was epic, to say the least. I recall it now. So here we go. Check it out. Peter Thiel's venture capital firm reportedly made $1 .8 billion closing out its crypto positions around the time when he was an early Bitcoin bull, still predicting the token's price to surge by 100X. And again, from 43 ,000 price action, 100X means over 4 million. Founders Fund had cashed out almost all of its bets on digital assets by March of 2022, according to the Financial Times report that cited people familiar with the matter. But Thiel was still backing Bitcoin, obviously, when he spoke at the crypto conference in Miami the following month. He went on to share where at the end of the fiat money regime, he said, adding that the token's price could increase 100 fold from its level at the time, which was reported at $44 ,000 per coin. That prediction was proven false and as rising interest rates and failures, the high profile firms like Celsius Network, Three Arrows Capital, FTX, Terra Luna dragged the crypto sector into the prolonged bearish winter. Now Bitcoin plummeted by over 60 % in 2022 and was trading at under 17 ,000 by the end of the year. And I believe the bottom currently for the cycle is 15 ,700. How many of you feel that that bottom is in? Let me know, chat. Founders Fund first started pouring money into crypto all the way back in 2014, when Bitcoin was only trading at roughly $750 per coin. So by the time Bitcoin reached its all time high in November of 2021, it had surged 8 ,500 % from that particular level. Not too shabby for a seven year run, wouldn't you say? Now Thiel has a long track record as one of Silicon Valley's most prominent tech investors. He took early stakes in startups, which include Facebook, Elon Musk's SpaceX, and ride hailing app Lyft, and even co -founded PayPal back in 1998. Thiel is also a high profile supporter of the Republican Party and continued to voice his support for Donald Trump since the former president left office in January of 2021. The fund held around two thirds of his portfolio in Bitcoin at one time, but now not has significant exposure to crypto according to FT's sources. So there you have it. Fam, what are your thoughts surrounding his prediction and him cashing out at around that time he was making those all time high predictions of 100X? Let me know, fam.

A highlight from Guided Into Truth
"Well, as you heard announced this morning, today is a special day for our church. The air is getting a little bit cooler, a little more crisp. The rain is starting to come and fall kickoff is happening. This means many of our ministries and programs are getting kicked off, ending their summer hiatus and getting rolling for the coming year. Now in conversations I was having with the guys on our pastoral staff earlier in the summer about the different ideas for fall kickoff, themes to go with, emphases to put out there. We had a bunch of different ideas and I won't share with you the ideas that ended up on the cutting room floor, but I will restate our theme for fall kickoff this year is guided into truth, which I think is a theme that really encapsulates what we are to be all about as followers of Jesus Christ, right? I mean, when you think about it, for those of us who are followers of Jesus Christ in the room this morning, we have been guided into truth in the ultimate sense in that someone somewhere at some point in time shared the gospel with us. They shared the good news message of Jesus Christ dying and Jesus Christ rising and Jesus Christ saving sinners like you and me so that our sins could be forgiven and our hope of eternal life secured. And then we responded to that gospel with repentance and faith turning from the sin that once had its claws in us to put our trust now in Christ finished work on the cross. So we we have been guided into truth in that sense. Now. We're also called to guide others into truth. And if we're faithful to Christ and obedient to his Great Commission for his followers, we guide others into truth. That's what we do. That's what we're marked by we do so around our dinner tables as we teach our children about Christ and we do so at our family gatherings as we openly recognize that all that we have the roofs over our heads the air in our lungs the food in our tables the experiences that we get to share together. They are all because of Christ we do so at church whether we hold a formal teaching post or not. We give instruction and encouragement and exhortation from God's Word pointing other people people around us to Christ and then for a select few we guide others into truth by sharing the gospel message with the lost for some that means doing so through door -to -door evangelism for some that means at the Holmes Lake prayer tower for others. This happens more organically and the day -to -day evangelism that you've heard spoken of more recently where people are more adept at moving their conversations from more of mundane topics, you know, the weather and Husker football and the like to the gospel and getting to the hope that's found in Jesus Christ. Well today's message is going to have one aim and the bull's eye that I've been praying that this message would hit is to press in on this notion that evangelism is the territory or the realm of only that select few in the church. I'm going to throw the flag on the thought process that goes John Kerry is the deacon of evangelism and therefore John Kerry and his team. Those are the evangelists of the church. I'm going to challenge those of you who whether through fear or or laziness let's just get real here a lack of concern and love for those who are truly lost or abandoning your responsibility to do what Christ has commanded you and I both to do which is to share the gospel with the lost. I'm going to exhort you this morning to stop warming the bench and to get in the game. So last week we looked at prayer you might recall from Colossians this morning. We're looking at evangelism. I figured I could complete the trio of all topics that people like to hear about giving maybe next Sunday. No, but I'm going to say what needs to be said about being more evangelistically minded individually and as members of this body of believers to be more faithful in sharing the gospel not from a place of personal preference or desire because that really doesn't matter here. I'm going to speak to you through a text of scripture one that is very familiar to many of us and a text that is so rich in terms of the description it provides and the picture it paints of what it means to be guided into truth and what it looks like to guide another into truth turn with me if you would in your Bibles to Acts chapter 8 Acts chapter 8 Matthew Mark Luke John Acts book number five of the New Testament. We're going to hit pause on our series and Colossians this week so that we as a church body in keeping with our fall kickoff theme this week can zero in on this text where we encounter someone who was guided into truth and also see someone who is guiding another into truth. We're going to look at Acts 8 25 through 40 this morning. I'm going to try to take the whole bite. We'll see how I do this morning sermon has five points. They're all alliterated. We're going to see the context first in verse 25 in leading up to verse 25. We're going to see the command in verse 26. We'll see the contact in verses 27 through 30 the conversion in verses 31 through 35 and then the consequences in verses 36 through 40 now since today's passage or today's sermon is one of these one -off sermons before we just drop ourselves into this passage. It would be important and good if we establish some of the context. So as we look at the context here first point number one, let's look at some of the background here. The Book of Acts was humanly speaking written by Luke the same Luke who gave us the Gospel of Luke and what both the Gospel of Luke and the Book of Acts revealed to us very clearly is that Luke was a very detailed and meticulous historian. We see that over in the Gospel of Luke the very beginning verses of Luke Luke 1 3 where he says this to Theophilus who is the immediate recipient of the gospel. He says it seemed fitting for me as well having investigated everything carefully from the beginning to write it out for you in consecutive order. So we see how meticulous already Luke was and then here in the Book of Acts, which is really part 2 of Luke's writing the sequel as it were to the Gospel of Luke. He continues on and giving this very precise and detailed historical account of the early church. In fact, let's go ahead and take a few moments to do a real high -level flyover of the first seven chapters of Acts leading up to our text for today. In fact, go with me over to Acts 1 and you can do the flyover with me. In Acts 1 we see that the resurrected Christ appeared to his apostles and according to Acts 1 3 he did this over a period of 40 days and spoke of the things concerning the kingdom of God and then over the course of those 40 days and at the conclusion of those 40 days the Lord said to his apostles over in Acts 1 8 that they will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you and you shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem and in all of Judea and Samaria and even to the remotest part of the earth file that statement away in your minds, by the way, we're going to come back to it a couple of times this morning then in Acts 1 9 we see Luke recording the Ascension of our Lord to the right hand of the Father where he is seated today says after he had said these things he was lifted up while they were looking on and a cloud received him out of their sight then in Acts 2 Luke gives an account of the day of Pentecost one of the traditional Jewish feast days what was Pentecost and this is the day on which the Holy Spirit as Christ had earlier promised would happen descended and fell on that assembly there in Jerusalem. This is the day on which the Apostle Peter gave one of the most powerful sermons ever preached and according to Acts 241 about 3 ,000 souls came to Christ were converted through that preaching of Peter Acts 3 were told more about the ministry now of both Peter and John still in Jerusalem. We see that Peter heals a lame beggar in this chapter and then Peter also delivers a second sermon from the portico of Solomon and in this sermon the second sermon Peter gives in Acts 3 15 he calls out the Jews of the day as it says here in verse 3 15 for having put to death the Prince of life the one whom God raised from the dead a fact to which we are witnesses that in Acts 4 we see the arrest of Peter and John recorded and then we see their interactions with Annas and Caiaphas and other Jewish high priests and it's in front of those high priests that Peter filled with the Holy Spirit Acts 4 12 says this and there is salvation and no one else for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved then over in Acts 5 Luke gives the account of the second arrest of Peter and John and the other apostles we see that they were flawed and eventually released and after they were flawed and after they were released Acts 5 41 says they went on their way from the presence of the council rejoicing that they had been considered worthy to suffer shame for his name in the very next verse Acts 5 42 says while they were still there in Jerusalem every day in the temple they go from house to house and they kept right on teaching and preaching Jesus as the Christ in Acts 6 Luke tells us verse 7 that the Word of God kept on spreading in the number of disciples continue to increase greatly in Jerusalem and then the very next verse Acts 6 8 we are introduced to Stephen who full of grace and power was performing great wonders and signs among the people and then the remainder of Acts 6 we see that Stephen was then brought up for trial essentially before the Jewish leaders on charges of blasphemy then in Acts 7 Luke gives us this very detailed account of the the bold testimony and defense that Stephen gave which included him turning the tables and indicting the very people who were trying to indict him for having murdered their Messiah the Lord Jesus Christ and that doesn't go very well for Stephen because we see in Acts 7 54 says when they had heard this meaning Stevens testimony and indictment of them they were cut to the quick and they began gnashing their teeth at him and then the rest of Acts 7 records Stevens ultimate death by stoning Acts 8 now begins with these words in verse 1 Saul the one who would later become known as Paul was in hardy agreements with putting him meaning Stephen to death and then look at the very next words and on that day a great persecution began against the church in Jerusalem and they were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria and what does that remind you of what we saw back in Acts 1 8 where Christ himself said to his followers that you shall be my witnesses from Jerusalem to Judea to Samaria and then to the remotest part of the earth now take a look at Acts 8 4 we're going to work our way closer and closer to our text because Acts 8 4 here really sets up the immediate context where we'll be today says therefore those who had been scattered out of Jerusalem it means went about preaching the word Philip went down to the city of Samaria and began proclaiming Christ to them the crowds with one Accord were giving attention to what was said by Philip as they heard and saw the signs which he was performing from the case of many who had unclean spirits they were coming out of them shouting with a loud voice and many who had been paralyzed and lame were healed.

A highlight from 667:DOJ vs FTX, Celsiuss FTC Woes, Grayscales SEC Triumph
"Rockstar Energy punched, bringing a bold and unapologetic flavor packed with energy through a blend of B vitamins, guarana extract, and 240 milligrams of caffeine to fuel what's next. Rockstar Energy drink. Good evening and welcome to the Crypto Overnight. I'm Nickademus and I will be your host as we take a look at the latest cryptocurrency news and analysis. So sit back, relax, and let's get started. And remember, none of this is financial advice. And it's 10 p .m. Pacific on Tuesday, September 12th, 2023. Welcome back to the Crypto Overnight, where we have no sponsors, no hidden agendas, and no BS. But we do have the news, so let's talk about that. Tonight we're diving deep into the legal labyrinth engulfing FTS and its founder Sam Bankman -Fried. We'll also explore why the FTC is going after Celsius CEO Alex Mashinsky. If that's not enough legal drama for you, we have updates on the SEC's standoff with Grayscale Investments. On the regulatory side, find out how the FCA is shaking up crypto investments in the U .K., starting with LUNO. And for a change of pace, we'll delve into the chilling tale of how Ethereum co -founder Vitalik Buterin got SIM -swapped. Finally, PayPal is making its own waves in the crypto ocean. Stick around, you won't want to miss this. FTX is embroiled in a complex legal battle with the U .S. Department of Justice. The DOJ has been accused of overreaching by attempting to block all seven of Bankman -Fried's proposed expert third -party witnesses from testifying. The defense argues that this move undermines Bankman -Fried's right to a fair trial. In preparation for the trial set to begin in October, both the defense and the DOJ have proposed questions for prospective jurors. These questions aim to identify any potential biases among the jurors, especially those related to cryptocurrency or the case itself. Bankman -Fried's bail was revoked last month and he's currently in jail. FTX's assets are valued at approximately $7 billion, including the $1 .2 billion in sole tokens and 38 properties in the Bahamas appraised at $199 million. The company also holds $560 million in Bitcoin and $192 million in Ether. FTX filed for bankruptcy last year, and since then, nearly $2 .6 billion in cash has been secured. The company is facing claims worth $65 billion, including a $43 .5 billion claim from the United States Internal Revenue Service. Over 36 ,000 customer claims worth $16 billion have been filed against FTX. The company is also exploring the possibility of resuming business and has contacted 75 potential bidders for this purpose. The DOJ's aggressive stance against FTX and its founder raises questions about the fairness of the legal process. This is especially concerning for the crypto community, which already harbors distrust towards governmental institutions. The attempt to block expert witnesses could be seen as an effort to control the narrative, potentially skewing the trial in favor of the prosecution. The asset portfolio of FTX is another point of interest. With billions in various cryptocurrencies and real estate, the company's financial dealings are under scrutiny. The fact that FTX is considering resuming business adds another layer of complexity to this already intricate case. The sheer volume of claims against FTX is staggering. The .5 $43 billion claims from the IRS alone could have far -reaching implications for the crypto industry. If the IRS's claim is validated, it could set a precedent for how crypto assets are treated by tax authorities. Now if you thought the FTX situation was a labyrinth, wait till you hear about Celsius CEO Alex Mashinsky. The regulatory sharks are circling, folks, which seems to be coming up a lot. Is this the new normal? Keep listening to find out. And hey, if you're liking what you're hearing, don't forget to follow and enable notifications.

The Breakdown
A highlight from Ripple's Fortress Acquisition Shows the Brittleness of Crypto Infrastructure
"Welcome back to The Breakdown with me, NLW. It's a daily podcast on macro, Bitcoin, and the big picture power shifts remaking our world. What's going on, guys? It is Tuesday, September 12th, and today we are talking about all of this dust up with fortress and the Ripple acquisition and what it means and who you should be mad at. Before we get into that, however, if you are enjoying The Breakdown, please go subscribe to it, give it a rating, give it a review, or if you want to dive deeper into the conversation, come join us on the Breakers Discord. You can find a link in the show notes or go to bit .ly slash breakdown pod. All right, friends. Well, today we are talking about one of the biggest discussion points for the last week or so on Twitter, which has been the issues surrounding fortress trust. Let's begin our particular slice of the story on Friday when Ripple announced that they had acquired fortress trust. Now, the deal was pitched as an expansion of Ripple's regulated crypto offering as they built out a vertically integrated blockchain services product suite. And Monica Long, the president of Ripple, said in a statement, licenses are a powerful enabler to build and deliver best in class customer experiences for enterprises using Ripple's crypto infrastructure across our payments and liquidity solutions, which she was referring to as the fact that fortress trust holds a Nevada state trust license, which allows it to custody crypto and act as a financial intermediary with the traditional financial system. This would add then to Ripple's existing strategy of accumulating licenses. Between Ripple and its subsidiaries, the corporate group now holds 30 state money transmitter licenses, a New York state bit license and a major payment institution license from the Monetary Authority of Singapore. So commentary over the weekend on this fell into two camps. On the one hand, this could have simply been Ripple buying a company to add a custody service to its one stop shop approach to crypto. On the other hand, many viewed this as a quiet bailout of fortress. And indeed, the Friday acquisition announcement was slightly strange in tone. Executives asserted that fortress could add a key piece to Ripple's vertically integrated crypto offering. However, the deal announcement was a little bit out of sync with previous announcements from Ripple. Specifically, the acquisition valuation was not mentioned, which was out of character for Ripple who had brashly announced a 250 million dollar deal to acquire crypto custodian Medeco in May. And of course, we have to put it in the context into which it happened. Fortress itself was already viewed with skepticism. The licensed crypto custodian had been founded by former prime trust CEO Scott Purcell in December of 2021. Purcell had left prime trust in January of that year. That was around the same time that prime trust mishandled wallet storing customer funds, leading to an 83 million dollar shortfall. Several key executives left prime trust to follow Purcell into his new venture. The firm was also aggressive in hiring former banking regulators to their team. The rift between companies was so acrimonious that there were even allegations of IP theft in taking software systems built at prime trust across to fortress. In June of this year, the shortfall in customer funds at prime trust came to light. Around this, the company was first placed into receivership by the Nevada regulator and later declared bankruptcy. Now prior to prime trust acknowledging their insolvency, numerous high profile customers fled for other custodians. It was already widely suspected that prime trust was insolvent at the time. The most impactful departure from prime trust was swan bitcoin. In June, swan announced that they would be transferring all customer funds held in custody to fortress. The transfer took over a week and involved a shutdown of automated transactions with swan. To many, it felt like an emergency operation more than a normal business decision, although throughout the process, swan executives assured customers that funds were safe. So this is where we were over the weekend. Lots of speculation, lots of questions around fortress, lots of questions around ripple. And on Monday, new information came to light around the circumstances surrounding the fortress acquisition. The day before the acquisition, my birthday, September 7th, fortress had posted a disclosure about a security incident which they tried to make seem relatively innocuous. On that day, they tweeted, Thankfully, there is no breach within fortress technology or systems, impacted accounts were fully restored. And most importantly, of course, there is no loss of funds. We immediately terminated the vendor integration and out of an abundance of caution paused all accounts to assess and ensure system wide security. We are taking all necessary measures to make sure the vendor is held accountable. Although this has been resolved, transparency and security are of the utmost important to us and our customers. We also have some big company news we are excited to share later this week. Now, Ryan Weeks, a reporter at the block received a tip that the incident had been far more impactful than it was made out to be. Indeed, he was told that 450 Bitcoin worth around 11 .3 million had been stolen from fortress trust, although that specific amount has been unable to be verified. What has been verified is that the ripple deal was much more of a bailout of fortress than it initially seemed. A ripple spokesperson said, Conversations accelerated last week following the security incident via a third party analytics vendor, but this opportunity makes sense for Ripple in the long term. Luckily, Ripple was in a position to act quickly to step in and make customers whole, and there have been no breaches to fortress technology or systems. Fortress notified customers immediately of the incident when it happened, as they mentioned in their tweets. Now, for those of you eagle eyed observers out there, or I guess eagle eared as the case may be, owl eared, whatever, you'll notice that fortress's Thursday statement said, This technically is consistent with Ripple swooping in to make customers whole, but also somewhat misleading if in fact Ripple had had to bail fortress out to make those customers whole, but also somewhat misleading if ripple indeed had to come in to make sure that those customers didn't actually lose their funds. Now what was also made clear on Monday is that the ripple deal is still pending regulatory and due diligence approvals. Given that we already saw the Bitco acquisition of prime trust fall apart during the due diligence process earlier this year, there is certainly no guarantee that it actually goes through. Now, of course, as you've already heard, there are numerous other companies tangled up in this mess. Swan Bitcoin is, of course, one of fortress's most well known customers. They have been in an absolute narrative battle and have claimed throughout that they were completely unaffected by the issue and the client funds remain safe. The other companies impacted are the custodian services subcontracted by fortress. Their role in the industry is mainly as the holder of a relevant trust license rather than as a tech provider. We know, for example, that hot wallet services are provided by fire blocks, while cold storage is provided by Bitco. And indeed, with the behind the scenes detail now made public, Bitco CEO Mike Belshi wrote a Twitter thread outlining his disappointment with how the entire debacle was handled. On Monday, Mike wrote, they are still at risk and whether Bitco was somehow involved. Spoiler alert, we were not. When fortress lost funds, they chose to omit facts about what happened, downplay the event and conclude, quote, most importantly, no funds were lost. Obviously, we now know this was not true. I guess what they meant to say is we believe we fixed the problem and we have taken steps to make sure clients are made whole. But those two statements are not even close to being the same. Ripple has done the right thing and disclosed that a breach did occur. But fortress still has not made a real statement about what actually happened. So, summarizing what is publicly known, along with what we know from Bitco, one, fortress suffered a breach through some third party integration, not Bitco, two, via fortress's platform and some third party integration, the attacker was able to drain funds from fortress's hot wallet system, three, fortress used fire blocks for its hot wallet system, four, fortress noticed the failure and says they have fixed the problem with the third party, five, although fortress did use Bitco to custody some of its Bitcoin and digital assets, Bitco was not affected. None of the fortress assets held at Bitco were at risk from this third party integration or taken. After the breach, fortress reached out to Bitco. Bitco strongly advised fortress to disclose what happened immediately. Fortress did not do that. Eventually fortress decided to sell to Ripple. This is a great outcome because Ripple was able to make all clients whole and will hopefully help fortress with resources to correct the security weaknesses which led to this event. Ripple is a good actor here and should be applauded. The real victims here are fortress's clients who deserve enough respect to get the whole truth. They are not to be blamed. The whole situation is exactly why we need decentralization. We can't continue to be dependent on the honesty of custodians, bankers or trusted third parties acting with integrity when bad things happen. Bad things will happen and most humans don't have enough courage to be honest through it. So there are a lot of things that people are upset about here. One of the biggest strands of conversation has been around Swan. On September 11th, the company tweeted, Swan client coins are in insured cold wallets at Bitco and did not move during the reported incident at fortress. The coins are protected by video calls and physical access and are not subject to any incidents at fortress. Swan set up this agreement with fortress to use Bitco as a cold storage sub -custodian precisely to prevent such a scenario. Swan has direct on -chain visibility to funds at Bitco. When someone asked what kind of insurance Swan was referring to, Corey Clifton the CEO said, It's $250 million per wallet, with no wallet holding more than $250 million, provided by Lloyd's of London. It's the best setup we've seen. As always, take self -custody if you're willing and able. Now, responding to the critique in general of Swan being associated with these companies, which now have a less -than -stellar record handling customer assets and are now owned by a company that is anathema to many Bitcoiners, Corey wrote, Separation of brokerage and custody is the model for traditional assets for good reason, and there's a good probability it becomes law for digital assets in the U .S. I am not a fan of the trust -me -bro model of brokerage and custody under the same roof, like Mt. Gox and FTX. The goal is to have no single company able to unilaterally move user funds. We very intentionally set up Fortress and BitGo with that model. Now, I understand the narrative frustration here, but at the end of the day, the reason that Swan had to work with these companies is that there just wasn't anyone else. This is why as much as some Bitcoiners are worried about the entrance of traditional financial actors into the space, many others view it as necessary to just have more market options for crypto -native brokerage companies like Swan to actually work with. Anyways, the whole thing is a mess, reflective of how bad the infrastructure is for crypto and Bitcoin right now in the U .S., and a reminder of just how challenging digital assets are, even for companies that have big history in the space. The one other big story from yesterday that I want to cover was the FTX creditor update. The FTX bankruptcy team reports that they have marshaled around $7 billion in assets. Using updated valuations from the end of August, the estate holds $3 .4 billion in major crypto tokens. This includes $560 million in Bitcoin, $192 million in ETH, and $1 .1 billion in Solana. Now, of that, it appears that only $137 million worth of Solana is listed as vesting, meaning a much larger portion of the tokens may be eligible for sale than previously thought. The non -crypto assets include 38 properties in the Bahamas worth around $200 million, as well as $529 million worth of securities primarily made up of grayscale Bitcoin trust shares, $2 .6 billion in cash, and $4 .5 billion in venture investments, although no current valuation of those investments was provided. The firm's liabilities show $65 billion in non -customer claims. That figure is massively inflated by a $43 .5 billion claim from the IRS, which is presumed to be subordinated to customer claims. The IRS generally submits the largest possible tax claim during bankruptcy proceedings, but often negotiates down significantly or differs entirely to a creditor distribution. Of the remaining liabilities, a $9 .2 billion claim from FTX Digital Markets is assumed to be invalid or redundant, which leaves $4 .1 billion claim by Genesis and $2 billion claim by Celsius as the major non -customer claims to deal with. So far, a little over 36 ,000 customers have filed claims totaling $16 billion. Of the claims that have been scheduled so far, around 10 % of customers have agreed to their scheduled claims, while 18 % have disputed their claims and 72 % have yet to respond with either an agreement or a dispute. Now, easily the most discussed part of the news dealt with the firm's clawback strategy. Transactions done within a 90 -day window of the bankruptcy filing can be eligible for a clawback, but in practice, not all claims are pursued. The estate has successfully pursued $588 million in claims so far, and they identify an additional $16 .6 billion in clawbacks that could be pursued. The estate is currently considering how to deal with customer clawbacks where users withdrew from the exchange close to the bankruptcy being filed. Several options being looked at included the full 90 -day window for clawbacks as well as a shorter 15 -day window which captures the major public news surrounding the FTX collapse. Travis Kling tweeted about this saying, This brings up a big question of executability. How feasible is it for the estate to go sue people in every corner of earth? This is a really surprising turn in this deal. Everyone was thinking this outcome was quite unlikely the entire time. If the estate ends up doing what it looks like they want to, it will change the nature of this bankruptcy process. We'll learn more at the 9 -13 hearing. Indeed, the estate is due in court tomorrow Wednesday for an omnibus hearing which will cover numerous aspects of the case including the potential liquidation of crypto holdings as well. You might remember that three weeks ago FTX asked for permission to appoint Galaxy Digital as a selling agent. Selling would initially have a limit of $100 million per week which could increase to $200 million if creditors agree. The market has obviously begun to price in significant fear of this FTX liquidation. Sunday for example saw a liquidity breakdown in Solana as rumors of imminent dumping spread. And yet many think that the market is overreacting. Jeff Dorman, the CIO at ARCA said, The way crypto market makers and traders are front -running the FTX supply shows a complete misunderstanding of how a syndicated sale process works. This isn't an every -man -for -himself VC unlock. This is a court -ordered process that Galaxy will sell very slowly and opportunistically. Lastly, the potential reboot of the exchange remains a possibility. According to the report, 75 bidders have been contacted. The report stated that Proposals are being evaluated. Transaction timing will depend on nature of transactions, readiness of bidder, and other considerations. So, friends, if there are currently two archetypes of breakdown episodes, with one being legal battles that are increasingly poking towards a positive direction for this industry, and the other being cleanup from the excesses of years past, this unfortunately was one of the latter. But, as they say, the only way out is through, and so until next time, be safe and take care of each other. Peace.

Thanks and God bless. Part 3, Chapter 36 of the Introduction to the Devout Life by Saint Francis de Sales. This is a Discerning Hearts recording read by Corey Webb. Chapter 36 of A Well -Balanced, Reasonable Mind. Reason is the special characteristic of man, and yet it is a rare thing to find really reasonable men all the more that self -love hinders reason and beguiles us insensibly into all manner of trifling. But yet dangerous acts of injustice and untruth, which, like the little foxes in the canticles, spoil our vines while, just because they are trifling, people pay no attention to them, and because they are numerous they do infinite harm. Let me give some instances of what I mean. We find fault with our neighbor very readily for a small matter, while we pass over great things in ourselves. We strive to sell dear and buy cheap, we are eager to deal our strict justice to others but to obtain indulgence for ourselves. We expect a good construction to be put on all we say, but we are sensitive and critical as to our neighbor's words. We expect him to let us have whatever we want for money, when it would more reasonable to let him keep that which is his, if he desires to do so, and leave us to keep our gold. We are vexed with him because he will not accommodate us, while perhaps he has better reason to be vexed with us for wanting to disturb him. If we have a liking for any one particular thing, we despise all else, and reject whatever does not precisely suit our taste. If some inferior is unacceptable to us, or we have once caught him in error, he is sure to be wrong in eyes, whatever he may do, and we are forever thwarting or looking coldly on him, while, on the other hand, someone who happens to please us is sure to be right. Sometimes even parents show unfair preference for a child endowed with personal gifts over one afflicted with some physical imperfection. We put the rich before the poor, although they may have less claim and be less worthy. We even give preference to well -dressed people. We are strict in exacting our own rights, but expect others to be yielding as to theirs. We complain freely of our neighbors, but we do not like them to make any complaints of us. Whatever we do for them appears very great in our sight, but what they do for us counts as nothing. In a word, we are like the Paphlagonian partridge, which has two hearts, for we have a very tender, pitiful, easy heart towards ourselves, and one which is hard, harsh, and strict towards our neighbor. We have two scales, one wherein to our own goods, to the best advantage, and the other to weigh our neighbors to the worst. Holy Scripture tells us that lying lips are an abomination unto the Lord, and the double heart with one measure whereby to receive, and another to give, is also abominable in his sight. Be just and fair in all you do, always put yourself in your neighbor's place, and put him into yours, then you will judge fairly. Sell as you would buy, and buy as you would sell, and your buying and selling will alike be honest. These little dishonesties seem unimportant, because we are not obliged to make restriction, and we have, after all, only taken that which we might demand according to the strict letter of the law. But nevertheless they are sins against right and charity, and are mere trickery, greatly needing correction. Nor does any one ever lose by being generous, noble -hearted, and courteous. Be sure then often to examine your dealings with your towards you were things reversed. This is the true test of reason.

A highlight from 1247. FTX Bankruptcy Hearing Could Determine Fate of Crypto Lender and Market
"Let's talk about something today I think you guys are gonna like, and that is, is there a crash incoming? And if there is, what could be the catalyst that causes that? A lot of people are looking at some of the data coming in from FTX, but there's a few other things that could also be playing into the markets and the prep that maybe the markets are getting ready for. So today we'll break down all that good stuff for you guys today. My name is Paul Bearer. Welcome back in The Tech Path. A couple of things before we get started, I want to thank our sponsor, and that is iTrust Capital. If you're looking at long -term holding and you want to go with a strategy to go into an IRA, one way you can do that is through iTrust Capital with their crypto IRA. A couple of things they do over there is you can actually invest in all sorts of digital assets, but you can also jump into things like gold and silver. So it's very easy to do, and it's free in terms of your monthly. All you have to do is sign up so you can start your project there, get into it, maybe transfer an IRA, or if you're brand new and you want to start one over there. And all you guys are paying for is the trades that you make within your own account. So it's a great way to get started. Make sure and use the link down below. It's going to help you get a $100 funding reward, and it also helps the channel out, so thanks for that. All right, let's get into a couple of topics today, and a few of them I want to jump onto a couple of tweets, and then we'll kind of flow into some news. But I've got a clip here of some things at the end that you guys don't want to miss. Kobe Easy comes in, global liquidity down, massive $1 trillion over the last 10 weeks. That's a pretty big deal for that much liquidity. It's interesting, too, because about four to five months ago, we had a series of interviews that we had with Lynn Alden. If you guys have not seen some of our Lynn Alden videos, just go back, search our channel. And she was kind of forecasting out what might happen, and this appears to be some of the things that she has been anticipating around what liquidity might look like. But we're now back to down to pre -pandemic liquidity levels. Now you have to think about that. The amount of liquidity that flowed into the space during the pandemic versus what we have right now is pretty significant. If you look at the chart right here, we'll show you some other stuff, but this is the dip right here. If you kind of just draw that line, this is, of course, talking about 19, 20, and 21 pre -pandemic. This, of course, is all of the injection into the economy and then essentially almost a full recourse back down. Now, granted, this still has a lot of room for more liquidity loss on the global scale, and that will have effect on digital assets, going to have effect on securities and other things, too. So be on the lookout for this one. I think this is one that we need to continue to chart and watch going forward, because this could be an indicator where Bitcoin does start to see, because remember, when liquidity starts to hedge downward, usually, and we'll show a little bit about the Dixie on another show coming up, but usually the Dixie will be on the rise, which it is currently. And if you look at the Dixie over the last, say, 30, well, let's go after the last 36 months, but look at the last year on the Dixie, the dollar index, and you can start to see how this gets affected around just traditional markets versus what's happening in the digital asset market. So very interesting something to watch for sure. Some key events that we'll be hitting this week is the Apple iPhone release. I'm curious if this is going to have a big splash because of the pressure that we're seeing on inflation, which means that will people have the money to be able to go out and purchase a new iPhone? And I think that's going to be a big indicator when we start to see the sales coming in for the holidays and whether or not Apple is doing well. So be on the caution and be on the lookout for that. Additionally, we'll see the CPI inflation data most likely going to be down. That comes in on Wednesday. PPI also comes in this week on Thursday. Retail sales data on Thursday will be softer anticipated. Consumer sentiment data on Friday. Consumer sentiment is right now looking to see maybe one of its biggest dips all year. This is a problem because it will have, I believe, some impact on how the Fed responds with whether or not they're going to be able to hold a flat position in terms of interest rates and the Fed fund rate coming up in November. So we'll see how that goes out. Also, the New York Fed manufacturing data comes in on Friday. So this is a big one. So it's the huge last week before the September Fed meeting. And when you look at what's going to happen over the next, say, 30 to 60 days, I think a lot is really dependent on these numbers this week and how that might play out for you guys in your markets. If you just look at the charts, there's a couple of things. Everybody's saying, why is crypto down so much today? And you can kind of see right here, listen, everything is in the red right now. Quantified crypto shows all top 50 projects with negative performance on the day as a total cryptocurrency. Market cap lost $10 billion in today's daily candle. So that's a big hit. 2 % in the last 24 hours. Fairly significant. Many people are looking at this potential of the FTX dump on the horizon. There's things that, yes, of course, FTX is still a burr in the saddle of the crypto markets. But I don't think it is as big of a problem as maybe a lot of people are indicating. I'll show you some data on this. But if FTX gets the approval for the sell -off, that's the big if, the details will settle on the size and the frequency of liquidations in order to minimize possible negative effects on the market. Now, they hold a lot of assets. We do know that. And remember, the market has already had a tremendous push down. So we're not seeing a $2 .5 trillion market here. We're barely seeing a trillion dollar market. So these kinds of things could implement very easily and cause a little problem within the market. But I don't know, the question mark will be how much can go into the markets and whether or not that's going to have an impact on Bitcoin. I'd love to get you guys' feedback. Do you feel like FTX is going to have any kind of scenario? Are we going to continue to see just a slight downward trend as we've been tracking over the last 10 to 14 days? Or do you think we'll start to see a real hit on the markets? Love to get your comments. Drop those down below. A couple of things to be aware of, and I think everybody's kind of fudding a little bit, is on the amount of Solana. If you look at respective amounts going from $29 million in XRP to $685 million in Solana, there's the line list of some of the tokens that could be at risk to a certain extent. But in reality, these aren't too bad in terms of if they get the go to actually release some of these tokens to be able to compensate the creditors that are in line. So a couple of tweets here. I'm going to kind of just go up here to this one right here. Will they sell off this week, cause a Solana soul crash? This was the tweet that hit on it. Mainly what they're talking about is the potential of this $200 million a week of assets that would be the limit that could kind of roll into this. And I've got a couple of charts here from Woo Blockchain. Let me kind of go up here. So this is as of August 31st. And the total of $3 .4 billion in crypto assets, including $1 .16 billion in Sol, $560 million in Bitcoin. And then you can kind of see the line list there. But these are the asset holdings overall, Solana taking the largest, and then Bitcoin coming in right behind it. And of course, everybody's also looked at Solana and the fact that they've been able to hold on. Remember that Solana was one of the blockchains that took the hardest hit from the FTX crash that happened last December. We saw Solana go down to basically about $8 .50 and then has corrected since then. And that's been an opportunity for some people because many people went in on Solana at its low around $8 to $9, and they're sitting obviously in a great position right now. Filing shows also that there's 438 investment portfolios with approximately $4 .5 billion in invested assets. These are the companies that are all, of course, being hurt. You can kind of see the token layer right there, limited partnerships involved, the equity investments involved. Obviously, we know Genesis and their connection, Yuga Labs playing a role in this, among many others. So this is not just crypto related. We'll potentially see a little bit of a market wave being hit here as we see more and more people taking losses on their books. As of August 24th, about 36 ,000 customer claims have been filed for a total of $16 billion. These are all everything from creditors, etc. You see the $4 .1 billion in litigation for Genesis. Even Celsius is sitting in there right now. And then the IRS, of course, has the largest position right now at $43 .5 billion for claims against this and what's happening with FTX. So all is not well yet. And I think this is, again, one of those things that could be one of those last little pushes into the markets as we continue to see the macro pressure pull the markets down. I just don't think it will be a sharp loss now and decrease in the market overall, especially on digital assets. Now, there could be a handful of tokens. Yes, Solana could take a fairly significant drop down to around $15. It's trading at around $17 right now. So that would be the one to watch for sure. Here's Lark Davis kind of hitting on it. He points out a couple of good notes here. First, coins will not be on the market to be sold, mostly will go over counter. And Solana is mostly locked up, and most of their tokens are locked up for around four years. So that in itself would slow this down. When this is sold over the counter, it'll be someone buying FTX's vesting contract. So that is a factor that plays in it. FTT, I don't think anybody's going to be playing in too worried about that one. Because remember, this was what I feel like set everything in motion was when CZ actually sold and started to move a large amount of FTT, which started the domino effect to occur and caused obviously, I won't say caused, but it definitely had a big implement or potential impact on what happened over at FTX. Bitcoin and ETH, they've got a good amount, but not billions. I still don't think we're going to see any real impact on both Bitcoin and Ethereum. I think we're going to see more market and macro pressure on Bitcoin and Ethereum. And I think we're seeing it right now. Obviously, we've seen a little bit of a downtrend on both of those. Aptos, this is the only one that maybe you have to worry about because of its size. And then everything else, no amounts big enough to concern. So I think this is, again, still just a bit of FUD. But the real question is, how and what will be pushing this down? And you have to remember, and this is just some Solana stuff, I think people thinking that there's a big deal with Solana. Two years of aggressive selling, I would agree. And the number of black swaths we've seen in this market, I'm still very impressed. And I just had a big, one of our executive coaching sessions this weekend. And that was one of the things that many of the people brought. These are business owners, millionaires in many cases, very successful. And even they brought to the point is that Bitcoin doesn't seem to have as much of an impact on it as it has in the past years as they've analyzed. And I would agree, I think the resiliency now is quite a bit different. Here was TOLI coming in. If everyone else is throwing shade, then we're just going to build and code in the shade. So of course, that's the current leader of Solana and Solana has been building and doing a lot in the way of doing partnerships. Obviously, we saw the deal with Visa and many other things happening out there in the market, for sure. Leaders are now monitoring risk in crypto asset ecosystem. The fact that it's even being discussed at a G20, you can take it two ways. You can take it as they're talking about it. That means at least it's getting into a legitimate layer or they're talking about it and it means they might be doing something negative. I think that we're in the more legitimacy layer from the G20. There's a few things there that we can hit on, but I want to also give you guys a heads up. We'll be doing a video later about this because there is a lot happening within the G20 that I think have bigger impact on the planet, especially around investing, what some of the countries will be doing, because there's a lot of positioning around stablecoins right now. And I think even here in the U .S., we're going to see that as well. But the FASB thing was endorsed dramatically. So we endorsed the financial stability board, high level recommendations for the new regulation and supervision of crypto asset activity. So that's a big scenario we talked about last week. Also following the declaration, the finance ministers at the central bank governors of the G20 nations committed to discussing and taking forward a roadmap during the next meeting in October of 2023. That's just around the corner. So they are looking at other potential impacts of maybe how digital assets play a role in a lot of these G20 nations. They also demanded that responsibility bodies ensure implementation method is consistent across global to avoid regulatory arbitrage. More things that I think will also play into how these countries are going to be dealing with digital assets. We've already seen MICA move pretty heavily in this way and position I think the EU into a very strong position of being able to do some interesting things in blockchain over the next few years. One other thing here, crypto analysts is predicting a fake pump before Bitcoin before we see a big dump. Again, we still have a lot of people pushing into the point that we could see a $15K Bitcoin or under. That is the real question mark because right now Bitcoin has been holding fairly decently. A couple of points they hit on right here is Bitcoin could be ready for a short squeeze. And this is in reference to around the $27 ,000 price zone in the following days. This is going to be a very critical time right now. Remember, we've got a lot of things hitting this week that will show the course of the United States when it comes to not only inflation but a potential recovery. And I think that's the more important thing. The other thing that they focus on was Bitcoin market makers are getting ready for a fake pump around $26 ,900 before further dump into liquidate long positions around $24 ,000 price zone. That's one that I think will be interesting because this right here is the potential forecast of where we could see Bitcoin going. If you look at our sentiment data on the CPI, which is our own crypto power index, I can't really downtrend a pressure on both amplification sentiment and top line sentiment on both Bitcoin and Ethereum. So does it mean that we would see a sub $20K? I don't know yet. But what I am seeing is a very consistent downtrend on overall sentiment in the market. And I think when you add in the other macro pressures, those are the things you have to watch for. I don't think it's as much as the FTX issue as it is the macro pressure. Fun fact, less than 5 % of global population now is invested in crypto. So that just shows you again how early you are. Maybe you're watching this for the first time and you're just now getting into crypto or maybe you're just now getting into Bitcoin and Ethereum, you're starting to do your research. What I would ask for you guys to do is just subscribe to the channel. It is one of the easiest ways that you're going to get additional content. You can drop that, you know, hit that little bell and it will give you notifications when we do things like that our live streams. Last up here that I think is interesting is a clip that I want to play for you. And this comes from David Marcus and David Marcus runs a company called Lightspeed, Lightspark, excuse me, not Lightspeed Ventures, but Lightspark. And Lightspark is trying to do some unique things in Lightning. But I want to play this clip for you. He starts off about halfway through. This is coming from Squawkbox. Let's listen in. We've watched the valuation of Bitcoin sort of sit around $25 ,000, $26 ,000. We've all been questioning, so where does this go? And does Bitcoin ever really become a currency, which is what you talk about it becoming? Do you think the value of Bitcoin needs to or can move up if it's actually a currency? Meaning I've always made the argument the currency problem is if Bitcoin is, if you think Bitcoin is going $30 ,000 or $50 ,000 or $60 ,000, there's no way I'm going to spend it on, you know, a pizza or on anything, frankly. If I think it's going to go down, by the way, I might spend it immediately. So our view is actually that Bitcoin is not the currency that people will use to buy things. But a fragment of a Bitcoin on top of Lightning is like a small packet, data packet on the Internet only for value. And so you can exchange at the edges of the network and send dollars to someone that will receive Japanese yen on the other side or send dollars to someone who will receive euros on the other side. All right. So a couple of things that David hit on there that I think are interesting. One is he did admit that Bitcoin would not be used for as a currency. And this is something that I've argued, you know, over time is that it is a challenge because of what's happening with Lightning right now. Now, this is not necessarily a bad thing. It's just a way that Bitcoin will be utilized. And, you know, to what Squawk Box's interviewer there, Sorkis, was trying to get to is that why would a currency ever be a speculated asset? This is where I think the the draw is if Bitcoin is still a speculated asset and it reacts like one. It has volatility. It has, you know, the issues with everything that we've talked about in today's show in terms of liquidity. And it also has pressures from macro. That's just like any other speculated asset, whether you're investing in securities, real estate, anything that you would speculate on. So I think that Marcus, what he's trying to do with LightSpark is they're trying to get to that point where they can get a settlement layer into it. And that's where I think the real question mark is. So whether you haven't, maybe this is the first time you've heard of the Lightning Network. I would suggest that you guys go out, do a little research, really understand it and try to get your head around what its purpose is and how it could be used in the future. At the same time, be looking at the Ethereum network. Also take a look at Solana. You want to look at these payment architectures that are being built on blockchain because these are the ones that are going to most likely be the ones that go forward. So love to get your feedback on whether or not you guys think FTX, these potentials here are even going to have a remote chance of causing any movement down, or do you feel like it's going to be more of the macro?

A highlight from Session 21 Evangelism
"Back to John chapter 8, there can be no real discipleship if there is not knowledge of the Word of God. And I quote 2 Peter 3 .18, the verse that is the key to this book, growing in grace, but grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be glory both now and forever. Amen. The knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ comes from a knowledge of the Word of God. And the Bible is the truth written revealing Him, the living truth. Jesus said in John 8 .31, if you continue in My Word, then are you My disciples indeed. The secret to the whole matter of discipleship is knowing His Word. His Word produces faith, Romans 10 .17, therefore we must continue in His Word. The importance of the Word of God cannot be overemphasized. Bible study and Bible knowledge are a must for a believer to become a real disciple of the Lord. I remember just before we had the break, I was going to give you an illustration of memorization. Navigators, I learned from them, and I believe it's true, that if you just run something through your brain 49 times, it's yours for life. I did that. I've done review, of course, some. But those verses have stayed with me. That first section of verses navigators used was 106. There were six spokes in a wheel, and six verses per spoke, and three times. That was 36 times three, 108 verses. I learned that the year I was a freshman, and I want to tell you those verses I still draw on constantly. And they've stuck with me, and I did it exactly the way navigators said, review every day for seven days. The way I memorize now, I do memorize passages while I'm shaving or something. I try to memorize while I'm driving the car. Sometimes that becomes a little dangerous. Because you can't remember the verse, and then you have to get the card out and look it up, and there could be a wreck. I haven't had one yet. I don't know when it's going to happen. But I go walking. I go walking in the morning, and take my memory verses with me, walking, and memorize while I'm walking. That is difficult. My wife likes to walk too, but I walk ahead of her so I can memorize, and she walks too slow. And I walk ahead of her, and then walk back past her, and walk back ahead of her and back past her. She's also. memorizing She carries a testament and memorizes out of the testament, and we don't talk to each other while we're walking. That isn't very romantic, I know, but we are memorizing scripture and hiding it in our hearts. So you can memorize scripture, and you can do two things at once. I need to walk. It wouldn't work jogging. That doesn't work, but you can memorize while you're walking, and so I do. Now, the illustration I was going to give you was, I was 13 years old when I got a bicycle. That's kind of late for kids now. They get them when they're 4 or 5. I can't believe what kids are getting now. They've got to have... I see around campus these kids in camp with their cellular phones. It just blows my mind. How many kids have cellular phones nowadays, and I've heard of parents buying them 700 minutes a month. For heaven's sake, what's going on? I think we're stupid around here. I got a bike when I was 13, and it was a bicycle. Those were the old timers. Those were when you needed to stop, you pushed the pedal backward. Some of you say, Young, you don't know what I'm talking about. You think I'm talking in tongues, but it literally happened. You step backward on it, and it stops the bike. And the coaster brake, thank you. And I got used to that, rode that, and I rode that probably until I was 18, and I guess I quit riding bikes and didn't ride. And I didn't ride a bike again until I was 64. And I decided, now 64 minus 13 is 51 years. I hadn't ridden a bike for... minus 18 is what? 46 years. I hadn't ridden a bike for 46 years. And I said, Honey, I think we ought to get us each a bike and do some bike riding. And so we went down and bought each a Raleigh bike, and the knuckleheads had changed bicycles in the meantime. They no longer had coaster brakes, they had hand brakes up here, where you'd stop them up here. And I tell you, I like to kill myself. Now I hadn't ridden a bike in 46 years. And all of a sudden, here I am, riding a bike, and I come to stop and I step back and the crazy thing won't stop. And before I would do this, I wrecked the bike, hit a telephone pole or something. Now, it had gone through my brain, Zig, you see, they say a thought goes through your brain, and it makes a track. You've got electronic switches in your brain, it makes a track through them. And the next time you think the same thought, it makes the same track. And the next time, the same track. And finally, it makes a rut up there. And if you'll run it through it often, brainwashing, that's what it is. Memorization is brainwashing. I wish I'd have done memorizing scripture instead of telling dirty jokes when I was a teenager. You know, some of those dirty jokes still come back to me. I'm 76 years old and I was a teenager, that'd be 60 -some years ago. And I don't tell them, but every once in a while, one of them will flashback in. A lot of the good things I thought never come back, but some of the bad things, because I ran them through there and got a rut. Well, what a blessing it is to run through there and get ruts all through your brain with scripture that cleans your mind up. And so the secret is to review, review, review, run it through your brain, be brainwashed with the Word of God. And I believe we need to develop our people. Everybody in our adult Sunday school class memorizes a verse a week for the class. However, we don't have a system of review for that. We have a memory verse every week and every week. And I hope some of them work at retaining them, but we ought to work at scripture memory. There's nothing more valuable than that. And so the person knows the truth, capital letter B, he realizes victory over sin. If the Son, therefore, shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed, John 8 .36. Though the Jews were in bondage to Rome, they tried to deny the fact to the Lord Jesus. He did not argue with them about their political bondage. Instead, he stated clearly that all men are in bondage to sin. And Jesus said that to commit sin is to become a bond slave to sin. A disciple must realize victory over sin. No one can become sinless in this life, but the believer who really wants victory can know deliverance from the bondage of sin. And so a disciple is one who seriously takes the Word of God and applies it to his life so that he'll see victory in his life. Cases as examples of discipleship. II Timothy 2 .2. This was the early church's method, Paul's method. And it's exactly what we should do today. The things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men who will be able to teach others also. Now that ought to be a motto of our ministry. That ought to be a goal, the motive of our ministry. Scripture says the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men. So what did Paul say to Timothy here? Timothy, you've learned from me. Timothy, you're my son in the faith.

A highlight from Session 16 Evangelism
"It has a blank there for the lecture number, and you can write in 11, I think it's written in, and the importance of the local church. Now you're getting the whole lecture, the balance of these today, we don't have questions, except for one, we do have the slides to show you. The importance of the local church. Now I don't think I need to spend much time on that. The local church is the important organism in the world today, not organization, but an organism, and it is the important ministry today. I personally believe the local church is the very basis for everything we do. We ought to do it in and through the local church, and we ought to honor the local church. Now a lot of people say, well, don't you believe in the church, the body of Christ? Yes. I believe there's a sense, the general assembly of the first born, the church in prospect, I believe there's a sense in which we can read about the body of Christ in the New Testament. Not too many references, the ones I mentioned in Hebrews, some in Ephesians. Of the 114 times, now the figure varies, but I'll stick with this, 114 times we find the New Testament, of the 114 times translated into the word church, at least 90, and I think we could say probably 95 times of those times, it refers specifically to a local church. The overwhelming burden about the church in the New Testament, to the church at Corinth, to the churches of Galatia, to the church at Philippi, to the seven churches in Revelation, the overwhelming number of references translating ekklesia refer to a local church. Now the word ekklesia you know means a called out assembly, and the church of the first born, the body of Christ, has never assembled. Well, Schofield I think probably mistakenly called it the invisible church, certainly it's never assembled, it's a called out group, but it's never had the privilege of an assembly. Well not until we get into the presence of the Lord, and so the assembled church is that with which God deals in the New Testament, and that's our local churches, and there's work in the world than the ministry of a local church, and we ought to thank God for the privilege of it, and we ought not despair because maybe our church seems a bit small, in God's sight He honors the local church regardless of the numerical size, it's the honored work of God. And so we need to recognize that, and I've got down here capital letter B, the local church important in the economy of God, and we come back to the Great Commission. The Great Commission was given to the eleven disciples, and those disciples or apostles became the very foundation of the local church, of the church the Bible says the church is built, Ephesians 2 .20, on the foundation of the apostles and prophets. By the way, there are no apostles today, no apostles on the scene at all, they were the foundation of the local church, or of the church in Ephesians, according to Ephesians chapter 2. And so the commission was given to the eleven disciples, that means as those apostles it was given to the church, and in each case you'll note in Matthew 28 verse 16 says eleven disciples, Mark 16 verse 14 he appeared unto the eleven, Luke 24 verse 33 talks about it was the eleven that he appeared in verse 36, and John 20 and 21 it was to the disciples Jesus appeared and stood in their midst, and Acts chapter 1 verse 2 he came unto the apostles, and it was they with whom he was assembled in verse 4, therefore it was to those that he gave the commission in verse 8. So the commission was given to those eleven and therefore automatically transferred to the local church, to the church, and we are the recipients of that. Yes sir? I personally believe it was at Pentecost.

A highlight from 1396: Bitcoin Will Hit $5,000,000 By This Date - Michael Saylor
"Lots to cover today. In today's show, Bitcoin's energy value metric puts the Bitcoin fair value at $47 ,000 per coin. And quoting Max Keiser, don't underestimate Bitcoin, it's destroying all the central banks and the nation states. Max also says that properly secured Bitcoin is the first truly unconfiscatable property that humans have ever known, preach. Also in today's show, approximately 182 individuals globally now own cryptocurrency worth at least $100 million. I'll be breaking down this latest new study, as well as Congressman Tom Emmer sponsors the amendment to limit the SEC's crypto oversight. We'll also be discussing $73 trillion wealth transfer is incoming, according to legendary billionaire Ray Dalio. Also in today's show, the Bitcoin revolution will not be televised. It's here, fam. El Salvador tunnels into volcanoes to power cryptocurrency, mining hubs. We'll also be discussing Michael Saylor, who recently shared three catalysts which will take the Bitcoin price to $5 million per coin within the next 36 months. We'll also be taking a look at the overall crypto market, all this plus so much more in today's show. Yo, what's good crypto fam? This is first and foremost, a video show. So if you want the full premium experience with video, visit my YouTube channel at cryptonewsalerts .net. Again, that's cryptonewsalerts .net. Welcome to everyone just tuning in. Welcome to another Sat Stackin' Saturday, a beautiful weekend here. Today is September 9th, 2023. I'm your host JV, and this is pod episode number 1396. So let's get it. Let's kick it off with today's market watch. As you can see here, Bitcoin barely in the red, maintaining $25 ,800. We have Ether barely holding on to $1 ,600. And checking out coinmarketcap .com, we barely have the crypto market cap holding on to that trillion dollar milestone. We're roughly $14 billion in volume in the past 24 hours. That means the volume is down roughly 50%. Like, whoa. With the Bitcoin dominance, which has been pretty stagnant at 48 .3%, and the Ether dominance at 18 .8%. And checking out the top 100 crypto gainers at the past 24 hours, we have Mina leading the pack, up almost 4%, trading just above $0 .39. Followed by Stellar Lumens, up almost 4%, trading above $0 .13. Followed by KuCoin token, up 3 .5%, trading at $4 .19. And checking out the top 100 crypto gainers for the past week, it's a pretty mixed bag. We do have gainers, we do have losers. And surprisingly, FTT, the scam token created by FTX and Sam Bankman -Fried is up 12%, leading the pack. And checking out the crypto greed and fear index, we're currently rated at $41 in fear. Yesterday at $46, last week at $39, and last month at $53, which is neutral. So there you have it. Welcome, everyone, in that live chat. I appreciate all the support. Let me know where you're tuning in from, and if you have any comments, questions, or concerns, drop them in the chat. At the end of the show, we'll be reading all of those comments out loud. Now let's dive into the fair value of Bitcoin right now. According to analysts, it's currently $47 ,000, which is what? Virtually almost double the current price action. That's right, the Bitcoin price is trading in a frustratingly tight range between $25 ,500 and $26 ,500, leaving traders unsure of the next direction that the asset can take. Now we have Charles Edwards, founder of Capriole Investments. He believes Bitcoin's current price represents a low -risk term, long -term buying opportunity. Edwards' view is based on Bitcoin's production costs as well as energy value. Now Capriole Investments' energy value theory gives a fair value price of $47 ,200. And Edwards reiterated his bullish stance by saying the Bitcoin's production cost gives a floor price estimation of around $23 ,000 with a 100 % hit ratio. The trade has a risk -reward ratio of 1 to 5 with the potential for even higher price targets. But Edwards added it is based on the assumption that the rally price would stop at the fair value, which it has never done. Quoting Charles Edwards here, my favorite Bitcoin chart right now, the relative distance between the Bitcoin price, the historical price floor, and fair value. That's a 5 to 1 risk -reward, assuming no hype, and the price would stop at the fair value, which it never has. Now Edwards proposed Bitcoin's energy value theory back in December of 2019. According to the theory, the fair value of Bitcoin can be estimated by the amount of energy it takes to produce a Bitcoin. The model assumes that the more work that has been put into something, the more valuable it is.
Real Estate Coaching Radio
A highlight from New Real Estate Agent 15 Step 90 Day Success Plan
"Welcome to Real Estate Coaching Radio, starring award -winning real estate coaches and number one international bestselling authors, Tim and Julie Harris. This is the number one daily radio show for realtors looking for a no BS, authentic, real time coaching experience. What's really working in today's market, how to generate more leads, make more money and have more time for what you love in your life. And now your hosts, Tim and Julie Harris. Three, two, one, and we're back. And this is the new real estate agent, 15 step, 90 day success plan. And of course you can use this plan whether you are a new real estate agent or not. Before we get to point number one, Julie and I were just talking about something that she read online. That's the first sign that basically, yeah, exactly. Now we're going to just address this head on and we're not going to sugar coat it. So get ready. I'm just going to shoot you guys between the eyes and Julie's going to back it up with facts as we always do on this podcast. There is not going to be a real estate crash. There's not going to be a precipitous drop in home values. There's not going to be anything that's going to resemble anything that even remotely resembles what happened back in 2007, 2008. Stop listening to anybody that tells you that there's going to be any kind of crash or correction. 99 % of the time they didn't sell real estate back then. They don't know the facts and or most likely they're trying to sell you something in preparation for this zombie apocalypse housing crash that's never going to happen. So I want you guys to be very clear that this time of year is really any time of year but really, you know, I have not seen so much misinformation or straight up, I'm going to just use the word that came to my mind, lying that's happened in our industry since probably it's been at least 10 years. Because of the fact that so many agents don't know what to do in this real estate market, weren't selling real estate back then and they're so, they're such easily manipulated into believing there's going to be a housing crash because, you know, after all, all these other people are saying there's going to be a housing crash. How can the masses be wrong? Well they are. So here's some facts straight from Julie Harris. Yes, that's right. So you might think that foreclosures are going up. Why do you guys think that sometimes? Well because in the previous thing that you've heard about, probably not lived through, prices went up, prices went up, it seemed like a big boom and then there was a big bust and that is the beginning and end of the thought process. Just because prices have been going up for a long time does not equal a housing crash. That is not a fact based on anything. Just because it happened back then does not mean it's happening back now. Why? And we've done very long form podcasts with many, many points but the underlying facts are not even close to the same. Well matter of fact, there's the fewest number of industrial estate actual homes that there's been how many long? 20 years? No, not 20, but like 15. Since they've recorded it. Okay. And not only that, as a percent. As a percent of total mortgages, right? It's less than 3%, right? Yes. Okay, so here's a couple of facts since we're facting them off the top here. Only about 50 % of people who own a home even have a mortgage. And I believe the number and Julie and I didn't prepare for this, like I said, this was just a conversation we're kind of looping you guys in on. I believe the number was a little bit less than 50%, like 43%, but it's something like that. Now when we say that on this podcast, somebody always puts in the comments, I have a hard time believing that that few people have mortgages. How? Why is it that you have a hard time believing that? A lot of people basically by the time they're like 45 or 50 have their home paid off. And it's also tracked. Yeah, exactly. Google it. Altos Research has fantastic facts. You can join them for your own local zip code and get your personal facts. That's the nice thing about, you know, we call it GTS, Google that shit. So if you come across, if you're wanting to know something, you know, GTS that and you're going to discover what the truth is. And what we just told you, again, I'm not sure if our numbers are right, but the essence of the point we're trying to make between 40 and 50 % there you go now that that means the other 50 % of the people that have, um, uh, you know, mortgages, they have mortgages that are 3%, 3 .2 % or less. So a vast majority of the people with mortgages have essentially mortgages where their money's free. Now, what do I mean by that? Because the homes, and this is the last point and this is the big one and I'll leave it up to Julie to make this point, the amount of appreciation rate or inflation. But with the inflation rate on real estate being somewhere between six, seven or 8 % year over year, and that's going to continue, that trend is going to continue for a long period of time for all kinds of reasons, but it really comes down to demand, right? But what we're looking at is you're looking at homes that are going to increase in value at a greater, uh, at a greater amount and actual real dollars than the cost of owning that home. So if someone bought a $400 ,000 house and they put down, I don't know, 50 grand and they have a $350 ,000 mortgage and the mortgage is based on a 3 % finance rate there, I can't even do the math in my head. It's like 13 or 1400 bucks depending on property taxes per month. Well that same home is going to appreciate this year. So you're looking at probably they're all in expense being less than 20 grand. If that home inflated or appreciated by 6 % in the last 12 months, that same $400 ,000 home now six times for guys get it. So someone's actually make living in their house for free because the house is actually inflating faster than what they're spending on that. That is not normal unless you're in a house a super duper, duper long time, like decades. Then that kind of thing will play out because of the inflation. But with interest rates and so many people locked into lower interest rates, a lot of people have won the real estate lottery. Now that's not to mean that they're going to stay in those homes forever because a lot of those people are going to have to put those homes for sale for natural, normal reasons that sellers have always historically put their homes for sale. Too big, too small, can't afford it, moving, relocating and here's the real bugaboo. Here's the thing that nobody, all these real estate doomsdayers don't want you to really take into consideration. We talked about the amount of equity, we talked about the average mortgage interest rate, but the amount of inflation or appreciation in homes in the last 24 to 36 months has been? Up to 40 % in some markets like Boise, but on average right about 28 % since 2020. So if you bought a house back in 2020, you can just add 28 % and you have at least that much equity. The average equity for people who still owe something on their homes, people with mortgages is over $100 ,000. That's the average. Now, are there cases where perhaps maybe you bought in the last half of last year and you were in a bidding war and you had to go over list price and you didn't have a really big down payment and maybe you got relocated and you have not very much equity? Yes, that's true, but it's still highly unlikely that you would get to the point where you're actually upside down. What you're saying is if you bought when the interest rates were higher and you haven't stayed in the house long enough and you put money down, if you had to be forced to sell the property now, you might actually have to lose some of the equity. But here's the solution for that. Stay in the house another year or 18 months or rent the house for another year or 18 months. And then the inflation rate is going to basically make you more than right on your mortgage and more than right on your equity situation. Well, so are there random sort, I call them one off foreclosures and short sales very, very occasionally like one to two percent. I don't know why anybody would go after one to two percent of the market. What you're seeing randomly and I mean very randomly. And this example that I was reading online was in Las Vegas. But even the distressed real estate is still selling for retail, basically. It is still selling for retail. So that that is and I'm glad you brought that up, because that is a huge difference between this time versus last time, because last time it was the phrase catch a falling knife. Prices were falling virtually by the hour and it was disappearing. And Julie and I were buying houses that we were buying houses. I remember going on auction dot com and putting in bids on properties that we ended up buying a lot of them in Las Vegas and still own them. And I remember the auction gal called back and was like, what the hell? You want to buy real estate? I mean, do you remember that? Yeah. It's like, are you sure? Are you sure? Like, do you know this is the process? And I'm like, yeah, OK. And then when you're buying through like auction dot com, you have to pay their commission, basically. And she goes, well, you know, this is going to cost you an additional whatever. And I'm like, OK, that's fine. Let's do it. It's fine. And those properties now are worth three x what we paid for them. That's right. Totally different scenario. Prices will continue to go up now. They go up, you know, 20 percent a year. That was extremely unusual. I know some of you think that that was normal because for you that has been normal, but it's not actually normal. On average, it's five or six percent over the past probably 10 to 15 years. And beyond that, it gets down to about three to five percent, depending on where you live and how far back in time you're going. But it's still increasing. OK, so here's the thing. And we'll get off this topic in a second and onto our 15 step 90 day success plan.
The Crypto Overnighter
A highlight from 660:BRICS Challenge to Dollar Dominance and EUs Digital Euro Gamble
"Good evening and welcome to The Crypto Overnight. I'm Nickademus and I will be your host as we take a look at the latest cryptocurrency news and analysis. So sit back, relax and let's get started. And remember, none of this is financial advice. And it's 10pm Pacific on Tuesday, September 5th, 2023. Welcome back to The Crypto Overnight, where we have no sponsors, no hidden agendas and no BS. But we do have the news, so let's talk about that. Tonight we're diving into a whirlwind of stories that are shaking the very foundations of the financial world. Can bricks outmuscle the G7 nations? What's the European Union's grand plan for a digital euro? And in the crime sector, a $40 million exploit rocks the crypto betting platform. Ma firms are raking in big bucks in the wake of crypto firm collapses. Meanwhile, Singapore's new president casts a skeptical eye on crypto and Japan is making some intriguing moves in the crypto tax landscape. Stick around, you're not going to want to miss this. So are they going to have to change the name bricks? Here's why I ask. India is a founding member of the Bricks Alliance. Well, they're planning to change their name to Bharat. This decision will be discussed in this special parliament session on September 18th. The Bricks Alliance itself has been growing, recently adding six new countries, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Argentina, Egypt, Iran and Ethiopia. I suppose Iran could be the new eye in bricks. The US dollar is losing its stronghold in the global oil sector. Bricks aims to use local currencies for oil trade, challenging the dollar's dominance. Reports from JP Morgan indicate that the dollar's influence in the oil sector has been waning even before Bricks initiated the de -dollarization process. Bricks' GDP and purchasing power parity now accounts for 37 .3 % of the global economy, surpassing the G7 nations. The alliance controls 42 % of the global oil markets and has a combined GDP of 31 .75 trillion. The bloc covers 36 % of the Earth's surface and consists of 45 % of the global population. So this isn't just a small -time gathering. The Bricks Alliance is not just expanding in terms of member countries, it's also challenging the very foundations of global economic power. The planned name change of India to Bharat is more than symbolic. It's a statement against colonial legacies and a move toward asserting a new identity on the world stage. The decline of the US dollar in the oil sector is a seismic shift. The dollar has been the global reserve currency, especially in oil trades. Bricks is not just aiming to dethrone the dollar, it's aiming to rewrite the rules of global trade. This is a calculated push by Bricks to take control of a sector that's been long dominated by the West. The GDP numbers are staggering. Bricks now controls more than one third of the global economy. This isn't just a challenge to the G7, it's a challenge to the entire Western economic system. The Alliance's control over such a significant portion of the world's population and natural resources gives it an unprecedented leverage. Before we move on, if you're riveted by these geopolitical shifts, hit that follow button. And speaking of power shifts, let's fly from the East to the European Union. The EU has its own grand plan to shuffle the deck with a digital euro.
The Bitboy Crypto Podcast
A highlight from Who Is Worse? Blackrock Or The Catholic Church (Biggest Money Cartel In History)
"Are you ready to wage a war without end against you? Are you ready to wage that war armed with nothing but bottomless poverty? I didn't think so. In that case, stop talking bullshit. And get yourself some shoes, because the air in here is unbreathable. Money corrupts, and that's not news. Today, it's Black Rock, Vanguard, and State Street. But not too long ago, there's an entity that held even more power than those multinational conglomerates. We're going to take a step back in time to the Catholic Church of the Renaissance and learn how it basically controlled everything it touched and how the game has stayed pretty much the same through the 21st century. We may just find similarities to how banks, hedge funds, and the uber wealthy elite wield political power today. Let's get it. Now, before you get your commenting fingers twitching about how I'm being mean to Catholics, know that I'm just talking about a political institution 500 years ago. I'm not talking about Catholicism as a religious practice or the church today. You do you when it comes to religion. This is America. Okay, now let's get back to the Renaissance. One big similarity the old school church has with our tradfi overlords is the emphasis on secrecy. Both institutions are shrouded in mystery. No one really knows their entire net worth or their intentions. Well, other than maintaining the status quo so they can rake in as much money as possible, both the Catholic Church and the banks have covered up scandal and corruption time after time so they can continue business as usual. Back in Da Vinci's time, there are all sorts of rumors of popes and other church officials not exactly keeping up with the Christian morals they were preaching. There is abuses of all kinds, incest, orgies, mistresses, bribery. We're not even talking about the polycule. You name the sin, the Renaissance popes were probably doing it. There is even a pope who supposedly drank children's blood. And that same corruption seems to be rampant within the banks and hedge funds in modern times. JP Morgan was found to be handling the payments between Epstein and the people he was trafficking with. In fact, the number of billionaires with connections to Epstein are startling. What were you doing on the island? And we'd probably hear more about similar corruption and scandals within Black Rock, Vanguard and State Street if they didn't own basically every news organization in the US. But we'll get to that a bit later. For now, the big boys just pay a lot of fines for doing bad things. And that brings us to the first tool you need if you want to control everything. Here's a hint. It's all about the money. Have you ever heard the phrase, money is power? Well, I'm pretty sure the Renaissance Church invented that concept. Most economists reckon the wealth of the modern day Catholic Church is actually immeasurable due to all the priceless artwork, artifacts and the money laundering going on. And the reported $30 billion net worth is still high despite countries going through a Protestant Reformation during the Renaissance and subsequently reclaiming church lands. So just imagine how much land and property the church owned back when Catholicism was the only thing on the Christian menu. Although it's really hard to know for sure just how much cash the pope was raking in during the Renaissance, economists estimate it would be a little over $40 million annually in today's terms. And remember, this income doesn't include the land or artwork they're receiving as gifts or claiming by force. This gave the pope the kind of capital countries are usually playing with. And thus, the church had the same power as monarchs. Some would argue even more. And folks, we may have ditched the funny tights and corsets or maybe you have, but we have the same kind of issue today. Vanguard, Black Creek and State Street manage almost $20 trillion, which is almost more than the U .S.'s GDP. And not only do they control more wealth than most countries in the world, those hedge funds are also managing wealth for countries, which creates a vicious, incestual cycle of corruption. Back in 2016, Forbes reported that the wealth gap is worse today than it was in the Middle Ages. And that's not very hard to believe when we know the top 1 % holds 15 times more wealth than the bottom 50 % of America. And during the COVID lockdown, the 10 richest billionaires doubled their fortunes, while 160 million people fell into poverty. So how did both the uber wealthy of the modern day and the ancient Catholic Church amass this kind of wealth? Well, the church had millions of people tithing 10 % of their income. Doesn't this sound a bit like the interest we pay banks on loans and banking fees? And 10 % is nothing in comparison to the types of interest we pay just to exist in the modern world. The highest credit card is over 30%, and most of us are paying somewhere in the 20s. And because the Fed is raising rates, other borrowing is getting more expensive, too. Student loan rates have increased, and taking out a loan to buy a home is nearly impossible these days because rates have almost tripled. mortgage rates haven't been above 6 % since the housing crisis in 2008. And yet, somehow, it's only us plebs who are paying these kinds of rates to borrow money. The corporations like BlackRock and JP Morgan take out loans with nearly 0 % interest. In fact, the wealthier you are, the less banks deem you as a risk. So you get the best rates. But in reality, this turns into a vicious cycle where the hyper wealthy hoard more money and the poor can't afford to borrow. Right now, the average interest for a personal loan is between 6 % and 36%, where the average interest for businesses is 2 % to 13%. Interest is leveraged against the average American the same way the Catholic Church used to leverage Ursary Usury is the practice of charging interest, and it used to be the biggest sin you could commit. But the church got creative with how it weaponized usury. It didn't go after wealthy banking families like the Medicis, who supplied the church with gifts and managed church money for free. The church conveniently cracked down on the practice so that the lower classes wouldn't have access to the extra capital that would give them the opportunity for upward mobility. It's wild how the past is so similar to our present. Why do you think day traders and TradFi have to keep at least $25 ,000 in their accounts? Supposedly, it's to protect the poor from the volatility of the market. But the way I see it, it's just another method of keeping smart people from changing their economic circumstances. And who do you think pressured the SEC to create that law in the first place? I'm willing to bet it was a giant money manager like State Street, Vanguard and BlackRock. They would like to have a monopoly on trading and hand all of us regular Joes a measly little 0 .01 % or whatever the bank interest is these days. I say no. And I want more than a toaster. And speaking of monopolies, the Catholic Church had a monopoly on salvation during the Renaissance, so people couldn't exactly go around negotiating that 10 % tithing rule or what exactly counted as a sin. It's really similar to how we can't really negotiate modern prices in this supposedly free market. The monopoly aspect is something the church and our wealthiest modern day corporations have in common. Look at the bank failures recently. Despite Jamie Dimon claiming the smaller banks are good for our financial ecosystem, Chase was very quick to gobble up the banks that went under. If we weren't there already, we're scarily close to a bank monopoly. Another way the Catholic Church made money was selling indulgences to rid the nobility of their sins. The Renaissance nobility were up to some shady things too and needed to be seen as moral so they could stay in power. The most corrupt nobles could buy a spot in heaven by donating land or commissioning artwork. Doesn't this feel a lot like government subsidies and contracts for major corporations? Hey, you want to look like you support green energy? Give Elon Musk millions to play with. Oh sure, Blackstone, we'll subsidize your billion dollar debt with taxpayer money because it makes us look like we're stimulating the economy. No problem. Another modern means of absolution is corporations using carbon credits to pay off their climate sins. This is how companies like Exxon have a higher ESG score than Tesla. They know who's palm to grease. Another great way to amass incomparable wealth is to be able to claim yourself as tax -free. If you can pull that off, it's an amazing feat. Just ask the NFL. Throughout history, the Catholic Church found ways to skirt taxation by the state and that practice is alive and well today. Do you think Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos are paying income taxes? I hate taxes. You hate taxes. We all hate taxes. But in our current society, we pay them. And it's a little more than unfair that the wealthiest among us are acting like they're tax exempt. Both the mega wealthy and the Catholic Church of the Renaissance controlled education and access to information. So kind of like mind control. The church kept their religious texts in Latin to keep the masses from being able to access it themselves. We already talked about how they also chose a lot of their sins to maintain the status quo in social hierarchy. It's a sin if you don't hit the like button. Similarly, corporate lobbyists have forced the government to slash education funding. That combined with other factors have made tuition exorbitantly high. We already talked about the student loan issue. Most people can't even afford college anymore. And if you take your education into your own hands by trying to stay up to date on news and media, you'll quickly realize almost every media company is owned by major corporations who have BlackRock and Vanguard as their primary investors. So you can't always trust what they're telling you because they have an agenda to stay in power. That's why it's hard to find information on the full extent of the corruption of the likes of BlackRock and Vanguard. I'm sure many reporters have pitched stories that have been shut down by the shady higher -ups. But here at BitBoy Crypto, we're proud to bring you the content that can't be bought by dark Wall Street money. Finally, that brings us to the third way the church and finance sectors control the world. It's not what you know, but who you know. And you know me. And I know you know that I know you. Political wheeling and dealing. And if that doesn't work, position your family members in places of power. Every royal court and government had pupil ambassadors that would ride back and forth through the Vatican and other church lands negotiating with church officials. That sounds a lot like a very early version of a lobbyist to me. And because as the head of the church, the pope had immense power, he was able to recommend marriages, which usually involved installing a member of his family at a high position. Pope Alexander VI married his daughter, Lucretia Borgia, off three different times. He simply annulled her first marriage when her husband was no longer politically advantageous and the Borgias may or may not have been responsible for murdering Lucretia's second husband. Pope Clement VII married one of his family members, Catherine de Medici, to the future king of France, which was a helpful political alliance during a time fraught with Protestant uprisings. This should all sound very familiar because the majority of our politicians, no matter the political party, have familial or social ties to banks, hedge funds, and the uber wealthy elite. There are so many examples of this, we can't list them all, but here are a few to sink your teeth into. George W. Bush had an uncle who provided discreet banking services for people in Washington, DC, and his brother Jeb also worked in banking before politics. Then you have the Clintons, whose son -in -law is an investor at a Texas private equity firm. Trump is friends with all sorts of sketchy billionaires across the globe. And look at Jared Kushner. And then you have Biden, whose son Hunter has been a hedge fund principal, venture capitalist, private equity fund investor, and painter. And now we have even more of Jamie Dimon's shenanigans. He doesn't have enough power running the largest bank of America. He's thinking of going into politics? And remember, guys, political corruption is like an iceberg. The evidence we have is just the tip due to how good they are at covering their tracks. And the Renaissance pope's habit of just making princes is exactly what our financial overlords do today. Pope Leo III crowned Charlemagne the Holy Roman Emperor out of nowhere, and Pope Alexander VI made one of the sons he had with his official mistress, a prince who supposedly inspired Machiavelli's The Prince. I don't think he inspired the artist, though. BlackRock and the likes are making princes, too. This is where we get into the modern day campaign financing, where it costs millions to be democratically elected prince. In 2016, only 158 families controlled 50 % of campaign financing. Our biggest banks spend millions on campaign financing for Republicans and Democrats every year, and that's just the money they actually report. There's a bigger, more illicit pool of dark money that controls politics. And if you think they're spending billions on these politicians just to be nice, think again. Nobody spends something for nothing. Billionaire Bernard Schwartz is quoted as saying, I don't ask politicians to do what I say. I want them to hear me when I have a problem. And according to Vanity Fair, BlackRock's CEO Larry Fink loved to go around saying that he told Washington what to do. Doesn't all this sound a bit like the Catholic Church saying, Well, you technically can do what you want, but if you don't do what I say, your soul will spend eternity in a very hot, not -so -nice place. You don't want to know where that poker goes. And now we get to number four on our list. It is better to be feared than to be loved. Also known as scare tactics. If the immense wealth, information control, and political corruption wasn't enough to scare the living daylights out of you, the Renaissance Catholic Church took it to a whole other level. The way the church portrayed hell through artwork and story was absolutely terrifying. Of course you're going to do whatever the Pope says to save yourself from eternal damnation. And the banks and hedge funds do this too. Make sure you have an IRA because if you aren't getting our measly 5 % every year, how will you possibly be able to retire? Don't worry, that number barely covers inflation on a good year. And if you don't buy things with credit cards or open a car loan and pay his interest, you won't have credit to buy a house later. And finally, this one's my favorite, guys. If you don't bail us out, the entire world will explode. We're too big to fail. And now we get to the final element you will need to succeed at controlling everything. Drum roll, please. Military power. Plato said, All wars are fought for the sake of getting money. And folks, he was probably right. The Pope would also deem certain wars holy and approve military actions. When Henry VIII left the church, the Pope excommunicated him and told his people that rising up against him was holy because he'd gone against God. Pope Alexander VI issued the Enter Saterra, which authorized Spain and Portugal to colonize, convert and enslave the Americas. And sometimes the Pope would even command armies himself. Did you know the Pope raised and commanded the army that was responsible for the Crusades? So I guess that we can be thankful that the hedge funds and banks haven't started raising their own armies. But then again, why would they when they have the entire government under their thumb and they could spend the free time bathing in gold? Today, massive corporate institutions lobby in favor of warfare because it benefits them financially. Corporations have made billions from the war in Ukraine and the Iraq war was conceived to financially benefit oil companies and their investors. Just look how much BlackRock has invested in military weapons. $56 .74 billion. And you can't tell me they don't have a financial interest in the military industrial complex. That was a lot of info, guys. And I'm impressed you stuck with us for this trip down History Lane. I don't want to leave you on a gloom and doom note, however. Here's the bright side, folks. The Protestant Reformation did come as a reaction to the Catholic Church's corruption and power. And hundreds of years later, the church is still powerful. Nowhere near as powerful as they were during the Renaissance. We have the same opportunity to throw off the yoke of the banks and hedge funds that control our current financial system and government. That's where crypto comes in. No matter how much they try to manipulate the market, they can't control our gains, especially when we think long term. Do your research. Find out who the biggest investors are in the companies you buy from and patronize smaller businesses. Take your business or credit unions instead of feeding the pockets of the giant banks. Really question what politicians are telling you and push for campaign finance reform. This is a potential future where we all are free. That's all I have for you guys. DZ out.
The Eric Metaxas Show
A highlight from Dick Morris (Encore)
"Welcome to the Eric Metaxas Show. Do you like your gravy thick and rich and loaded with creamy mushrooms? If no one was looking, would you chug the whole gravy boat? Chug, chug, chug, chug. Stay tuned, here comes Mr. Chug -A -Lug himself, Eric Metaxas. Hey there, folks. Welcome to the show. I planned to have as my guest today our friend Dick Morris, but I did not plan to have Dick Morris here following what happened yesterday. I'm very glad that after this fourth indictment of President Trump, I have someone that I trust to ask about it. Dick Morris, welcome, and help us make sense of what in the world is happening in the United States of America at this time. Well, we're really in danger of becoming a judocracy as opposed to a democracy, a government run by judges. And I would say the justice system, but it's not, it's individual judges working for the administration. Biden has decided he can't defeat Trump in the election, so he's gonna defeat him in the courts. But first of all, do you even think that Biden is running? My theory would be that we have people behind the scenes in the Democratic Party who know that Trump is their worst nightmare, and they will do and are doing anything to stop him - But make no mistake, this is run by Joe Biden. He's not addled, he's not - I am surprised, honestly, to hear you say that. I would think that behind the scenes it's Obama, it's anybody but Biden. We need to change our image of Biden. He's mean, he's nasty, he's surly, and he's dictatorial. And he knows, and he desperately needs this job, not for the prestige, but for the money. Biden's net worth when he entered the presidency, no, I'm sorry, the year after he left the vice presidency, his net worth was $27 ,000. He never made any money. He served for 36 years in the Senate, was the poorest senator. Then when he became vice president, he made a little more. And then in 2017, when he left the vice presidency, he made a total killing. He made $15 million in one year. And God knows how much more that he didn't declare. And most of it was bribery. And he needs to continue that. He needs two things. He needs a continuous flow of bribes. And he also needs to do what the Chinese want, so they will cover it up for him and not turn him in. And I think that that's what you're looking at here. It's no surprise, really. The issue is what'll happen. I think the other point that's worth making here is that this indictment breaks entirely new grounds because what happened was that in 2018, Stacey Abrams ran for governor, Democrat. And she came very close to winning against Kemp. But there were a lot of votes that she claims were suppressed, blacks who couldn't vote. So she sued. And the litigation went on for two years. And finally, the state settled and they came up with a consent decree. And the key thing in the consent decree was that they would not scrutinize signatures very thoroughly of people who were absentee or voting by mail. The statute required for two verifications and they cut it back to one and they sharply limited the grounds for where signature could be tossed out. And under those new rules, they conducted the election of 2020. And when Trump lost the state, he realized there was a fraud involved. And he sent investigators down to check it out, Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, and a bunch of others. And now they are all being indicted because they dared to question the results and to audit the results, really.

Nashville Bitcoin 2024 is coming to Nashville in Tennessee, a city that is known as a music and freedom city. Bitcoin 2024 in Nashville, from July 25th to 27th. And more news out of China. What's going on, Nolan? Big news week. The dog days are over, it looks like. Summer coming to an end. Looks like people are back at work. So much happened this week. Crazy. Yeah, like you said, you've been waiting for the BRICS summit, so we have a bunch of news out of the BRICS summit. That kind of marks the end of the dog days, as well as Jackson Hole going on. But we have no news out of Jackson Hole until tomorrow, so we're going to have to cover that on next week's show. But those are kind of the capstones, I think, to the dog days of summer, wouldn't you say? Indeed. We've got our Labor Day weekend coming up, which I think marks the real sort of back to business. I know that our own event, Bitcoin Amsterdam, October 12th to 13th, really trying to harness that sort of back to school spirit, and you're going to see our agenda is going to be published that second week back. We're going to be publishing a public agenda. Still be a draft version, of course, always a possibility of changing things, but everyone out there can look forward to that mid -September, and we're going to be talking about energy policy in Europe. We're going to see if Greta, what she thinks about our agenda, and if it's in line with her goals for Europe. I don't know if she's going to be happy with what we have to say, but we hope she's invited. We're inviting Greta this year. Open invitation. Open invitation, yeah. All right, cool, guys. Well, if those topics sound good to you, make sure you like, comment, subscribe. We do have our Rumble versus YouTube battle to see which platform we can get the most views on. And another plug for me up front, Bitcoinandmarkets .com. That's my website where I do another podcast, my Bitcoin and Markets show. And check out the Telegram, where we go back and forth all day about macro, all sorts of macro topics, not just Bitcoin, but the last couple of days, we've been talking demographics over there. So check out t .me forward slash Bitcoin and Markets. All right, let's dive into Bitcoin, Nolan. So the Bitcoin price, we had the big dip. I think during the show last week, we were just starting this dip down. We sure were, yeah. And I think it happened the first time I checked after the show, it just kept sinking. Yeah, but the volatility only lasted for about 36 hours. And then now we're right back down straight to flat, no volatility left. People are waiting for a BART to form, an inverted BART, I guess you could call it. But we haven't seen that yet. So what are your thoughts on price? You can see on this chart, I have the red line for the September 1st ETF deadline that we'll be getting into here in a second. But yeah, what are your thoughts on price? Yeah, this last week really did surprise me. I was not mentally even charting this. I thought it was going to be bounce along in a tighter band than this. But I thought, again, it was prescient to what you were saying last week. So I've got to stop ever even doubting your predictions because you said if it broke and it broke, it tumbles and it tumbled. Whereas I said, no, it'll go back up and stay in the tight band. And no, indeed, we fell off the bike here, it looks like. Well, I have been very surprised with the thud that it created at the bottom. There was no bounce at all. It just like splat. And now it has been flat again down here just above 25 ,000. We'll see if that holds. What else did I want to say about this? Well, let's go to the next slide because a lot of... I think it still feels the same way. As a Bitcoiner, I have that feeling of just don't have the capacity right now to even manage the bounces, which is typical of this time in the cycle. We've all sort of survived a few years of downward trend. So the whole industry feels seized in this same tight band. Yeah, I mean, the behavior of the price is very interesting and a lot of people are speculating that it's because Binance is selling systematically off their Bitcoin to protect the BNB coin. And if we go to the next slide, that is the BNB. And you can see, you might have to take our heads out of there, Chris. The BNB, it was trying to hold about 220. It has touched, I think, all the way down to like 203 or something now. But it is the only coin in the top 20, say, on CoinMarketCap that is green. Everything else is red for today and it's very interesting. I think this does look like a defense of BNB. People are comparing this to an FTX, the FTT token, their FTT token that collapsed. What are your thoughts on this? Do you think Binance is about... No, no. So from my perspective, so I'll just give you a bit of market sizing here and why this could make sense and even something I don't think I've ever mentioned to Dylan, but it's something that I saw famously Dylan, of course, with Bitcoin Magazine published last November. His predictions on BNB in line with what we saw with FTT. I get it, right? We're dealing with two big exchanges here. Now, at my time at Kraken, when I worked in the strategy division of Kraken, one of the things we did indeed was look up the market sizes, the market characteristics. always So I had questions about what was going on over at FTX because there was no business there. There was some other business that they were doing, but it wasn't like get a bunch of people in the door and get them trading and slinging shitcoins. Now, with Binance, that's really what is happening. They have a huge user base, like unbelievable user base. And if you think about the Binance coin for a second, look, it doesn't really matter up or down. It should make money when it sinks because it's just about transaction. It's like loyalty points for transactions, right? You pay fees with the coin and it's got its own internal market within Binance. They also force companies that want to list on Binance to hold a certain amount. So there's sort of a business backing to this coin. It isn't just like, oh, look, I'm wicked rich and Tom Brady works for us and you borrow my coin and I borrow your coin and we all just be OTC trading together. The difference always is in the character of the people, you know, CZ, look, I get why a lot of people would say shitcoiner, right? I get all of that. And that's true. And you don't need to defend him on that. But about what SPF did, like going out of his way to rob people. No, we're not dealing with a thief here, right? Like whatever I have to imagine for what's going on inside of Binance, it's in probably the best faith possible. I just don't imagine. Now, I could be wrong. I have zero proof, right? Other than what I've seen in the market, other than what I've seen the company do, other one that I've seen from CZ himself. I've been lucky enough, you know, over the years before Binance, during Binance, early days of Binance, I've interacted with him a bunch. Look, he's not a criminal. He's not a criminal, right? Now, that doesn't mean he's innocent. It doesn't mean anything. It's not the same scenario. There is a credible reason why the coin would go up. It's just basic economics. It's for trades. People getting out of their positions and shitcoins into Bitcoin makes him money. It does. And it makes the Binance coin money or whatever, right? Like a market stampede also makes that coin, you know, it's transactions. So it's relevant. So more transactions equals the coin does stuff. Now, again, all I'm saying is there is a credible scenario. I have not checked it. I have not analyzed any of this stuff. On -chain, off -chain, forensically, nothing, right? It's really just, is CZ a criminal? Because the criminality was a big part of what went wrong in FTX, right? The criminality, the political influence, that's all a big part of the story here. That's why we weren't dealing with an exchange that had millions upon millions of retail users around the world. Binance really does have that. This is not smoke and mirrors. They're not trying to, you know, oh, you know, some people are on exchange. The web page of binance .com is one of the top visited web pages on planet Earth. On the planet. So, you know, it's credible that the coin would buck the trend only because it's like readership at a media company in a way. It can go up during a market crash, right? Well, it could also be, like you were saying, the coins listed on Binance, they need to hold a certain amount of reserves of BNB. Well, those coins themselves could be in trouble. So, it wouldn't necessarily have to be Binance as an institution or CZ as an individual. It could be any of the other institutions that have coins. You got it. Because these are all centralized and all that stuff. Also, I remember when FTX went down, I said that I thought Binance had a much more legitimate business. And they serve a big function in the space being connected with East Asia, right? Being connected with China. And so, this is, I don't see it as an FTX, but it's possible. We have to keep watching and see what happens. Yeah, any other thoughts? Yeah, even to reiterate the point of view on the character of CZ. Now, again, anything is possible here. But I think he deserves as much good faith assumptions as someone like Brian Armstrong gets, right? Who people just imagine. But I mean that in a complementary way. No one out there is saying Brian Armstrong is a lying, scamming. Oh, I do. Okay, well, I'm wrong. Sorry, then. Well, then I miss the perception. What I mean to say is I just wouldn't put him in that category. Well, most people out there, Brian Armstrong is a legitimate businessman. And I don't think that he is, like even in the court case or in the lawsuits against Coinbase, it's not being alleged that they were like openly trading with customer funds or anything like that. Coinbase was just partaking in this staking scheme. So, yeah, I don't see Brian Armstrong as nearly in the same school as SBS, for sure. Yeah, that's all I want to say is that we can get clouded as Bitcoiners when we look at industries and the principles of scam coins and all that. I'm totally down with that. I get it, right? A lot of these things are scams. Bitcoin is a different situation and I get why people want to reiterate all the time. But even within the world of scam coins and the people who do business over there, there are legitimate people who want a better world and whose worldview are aligned with the most maxi Bitcoiners out there. And so I just mean to say he's one of those guys, right? That's my perception. CZ is here for the overall Bitcoin standard implementation in the world. And I don't think he's trying to make a buck off of Binance coin. I think it's good that it worked and it was good for business and probably wants it as marketing.
The Bitboy Crypto Podcast
A highlight from BREAKING Grayscale Wins SEC Lawsuit! (MASSIVE Crypto Pump!)
"Welcome to BitBoy Crypto! Home of the BitSquad, the largest and greatest crypto community in all of the Interwebs. My name is Deezy. We're here at 11 .33am. Shout out to Sam Price. We started on the time on purpose. Shout out to Larry Bird. It's Tuesday, August 29th. We got Drew and AJ. How are we all doing today? I'm bullish. Anytime we start the morning with the pump, especially some good news, I mean, come on, we can't hate on that. Let's go. Yeah, we're going to talk about that. We're going to tell you why the markets are pumping. It has something to do with an ETF, folks. Also, we have some XRP news. We got some X news. Is Elon bringing back Doge? Is it happening soon? Did he just get a license? What was that license? We got an NFT being targeted. ETH interests all time low. We're going to talk about Cardano. We're going to talk about Charles Hoskinson and aliens. And then maybe at the end, if we got time, me and AJ might talk about rare EVO. Fantastic time out there. I had a really, really good time. So, grayscale ruling is just a bunch of hopium FUD ammo for more Bitcoin movement. So, we're going to talk about that. But first, AJ said the markets are pumping. Let's look at the markets. What is going on with the markets? We're going to refresh, make sure we got that fresh data. The market cap of crypto industry is up 3 .6%. We're coming in at $1 .13 trillion, everybody. 24 -hour volume. Only coming in about $42 billion. I'm surprised it's this muted. It, you know, averages around 50 when things get a little bit excited. Can touch 100 on an exciting day. So, surprise is so low. We have Bitcoin dominance coming in at $46 .9K. Gas is up, though. It is up to 90. So, it looks like people are using that EVM, getting in and out of those altcoins. Now, AJ, do you think they're getting into ETH or out of ETH? That's a really good question. I know volume has been down lately. I'm personally looking at the Bitcoin chart right now on my screen as we speak. And it's really good to see, if you see this right yellow line here, this yellow line, Bitcoin put in a higher low if it's turning around here. And if it stays in that range, I mean, there's nothing wrong with that. Obviously, losing the year -long trend line, this white line here, bad news bears. But the fact we put in a higher low right there, I mean, that's a good look, at least a good start. All right. The trend is your friend, so it isn't great seeing that trend break there. But let's look at individual crypto prices here. We have everything pumping over the last hour or two. We have Bitcoin up almost 5 % on the day, essentially making up the entire week's gains here, up 4 .9%. ETH is up 4 .1%. BNB up almost 5%. XRP, only up 3 .3%. Cardano as well, only up 3 .3%. But Dogecoin, maybe off the Elon news, it is pumping a little bit harder. It's coming in at 6 .3%. And TonCoin, this morning, one of the few coins in the green, but with the bullish news with Grayscale, it is now pushing 10 % everybody and as well as Bitcoin Cash pushing 10%. If we look at the top gainers here, what are we going to see? Are we going to see your portfolio? If we see your portfolio, make sure you hit that like button where you have stacks. What is up with stacks always leading the way, whether it's gainers or losers, AJ, it's always stacks. Is it? I just see stacks in the top five of movers a lot. That's a fair point. I actually like, that's one of those coins that like, I just never really follow. Like, you know what I mean? I know what it is. I've seen it, but I'm just like, Stacks is up there with radix. You see radix doing that a lot. You see stacks doing a lot. There's a couple other coins. You always see injective. You often see that. Yeah, that INJ is definitely one that I've had my eye on at least for this year. It's really hard to ignore the price action on INJ. And hey, look at VeChain, you know, not doing bad. And over the VeChain shirts, I had to give them a shout out. I, you know, after the price prediction video I did with VeChain, I met the VeChain people at Rare Evo. Super cool. Super cool. Maybe it might hit up a UFC fight with them at one of these points in time. It's hard to not be bullish on that project, not going to lie. Cool. We have a Bitcoin cash up 8 .8%. Roll Bitcoin 8 .2. Still having a good week. 36 .9. I held on to most of my bag. I took some profits when we hit that local low or local high there. We have Dogecoin up, Optimism up as well. Avalanche ETH classic, a coin I haven't even thought about in a long time. It is up five and a half percent, but who's losing there. We got everything pumping. Is someone dumping? All right. We have Caspa. This might look, I keep saying, Oh, I'm gonna buy Caspa. I'm gonna buy Caspa. I haven't bought Caspa. What is going on? Why haven't I bought Caspa? Mostly because KuCoin shut out American users. I got to find another exchange. Probably looking at Bitget. Tim's around. Tim's around. Let's see. So we have Caspa down 3%. SWE down 2 .4%. Apecoin erasing the gains from yesterday, at least half of them is down 2 .3%. And then after that, nothing really has fallen too hard. Kronos is down, but still slightly up for the week there. But are you ready to talk about some grayscale? Dude, such, such good news. Such good. I mean, to be fair, there is a difference between, you know, the news this morning and a spot BTF approval. There is an ocean between those two things, but it's really good to see bullish sentiment, especially right now. And you know, like I said, putting in the higher low. Yeah, let's get into the story. All right. All right. Let's see. Again, make sure you follow us. We're at a 1 .45 million followers here. Let's see. All right. So we have court grant. This is a breaking story just happened. I mean, you see with the crypto pumps, there's not a whole lot of articles on this. We're going to go over this one here. Court grants grayscales petition for review in Bitcoin ETF case against the SEC. So the state court of appeals or the state's court of appeals granted their petition for review this morning is a three judge panel for the DC circuit court of appeals. And they sided with grayscale in the battle against Gary Gensler and the sec. This came after they sued the sec a long time ago, folks, at least in crypto land, June of last year, when they blocked them from converting its Bitcoin trust to an ETF. We remember, you know, this was a bullish narrative about two years ago, but it's not all the way where we want to be, which is a spot ETF. They argue that the approval of ETFs investing in Bitcoin futures, but not proposed con products would hold a Bitcoin directly is arbitrary and capricious. The judge granted the petition for review in order that the commission's order be vacated. So it means the sec has to review the application, which it had previously rejected. So before they got, you know, they got the resume and they just threw it out the window and say, Hey, look, we don't need to look at it. Grayscale saying, Hey, that's not fair. You actually need to, you know, how about put some eyeballs on it? How about you assess us fairly? And how about you give us a real accurate ruling? Don't just have this arbitrary and capricious ruling. And that's what they're saying here. So the CEO of Grayscale said on Tuesday that the company's legal team is actively reviewing the court's decision. This is a monumental step forward for American investors, the Bitcoin ecosystem, and all those who have been advocating for Bitcoin exposure through added protections of the ETF wrapper. This is huge, but I don't know if Grayscale is going to be able to beat BlackRock, AJ or Drew, you know, I just don't see that BlackRock is going to come in with the bronze medal. Does BlackRock get bronze medals or do they get gold medals? I think they get gold medals. Now, maybe it's a tie. Maybe a lot of people are approved at the same time, but I don't see Grayscale getting the gold and BlackRock is just happy with the silver. That's my take.
Evangelism on SermonAudio
A highlight from Serving Where God Directs
"Amen, thank you, team, and if you have your Bibles, please open them up to Acts chapter 15. Acts chapter 15, verses 36 to 41. Now, before you get excited that this is a smaller passage of scripture, there is a lot to unpack in this. But don't worry, we will still take our normal time. So Acts chapter 15, verse 36 to 41, the title of this sermon that is prevalent throughout this that is underlining theme in here is serving where God directs, as we see something in this passage that we haven't necessarily seen that, to me, gives encouragement to know that the first century church wasn't this perfect, no -problem church, that there were issues that this church went through that, for us today, can give us some principles on what we as believers today can ascertain from this text. So Acts 15, verse 36 to 41, I'll be reading, this verse will also be up on the screen. Starting verse 36. Now, after some days, Paul said to Barnabas, let us return and visit the brothers in every city in which we proclaimed the word of the Lord and see how they are. And Barnabas wanted to take John called Mark along with them also. But Paul kept insisting that they should not take him along who had deserted them in Pamphylia and had not gone with them to the work. And there was such a sharp disagreement that they separated from one another. And Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed away to Cyprus. But Paul chose Silas and left, being committed by the brothers to the grace of the Lord. And as he was traveling through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the churches. Let's pray. Father, we thank you for this opportunity. We have to hear your word this morning. God, I pray that you will open all of our hearts, minds, and ears, God, to hear what it is that your word is being brought today to say. God, help remove any distractions. Father, just be with us this morning as we study your word. We ask all these things in your precious and holy name. Amen. So as we look through this text, we see three main individuals that we've already been introduced to. John, excuse me, John called Mark, Paul, and Barnabas. Now, the question that we are going to be looking at today and a question that each of us also need to ask, but we see playing out through these individuals is, are they the right individuals for the job? Are they in the right job? Are they in the right location? Are they doing the right thing and using the right methods and means to accomplish the task that they have been set out to accomplish? Now, to understand this passage more clearly, and honestly, throughout the whole book of Acts, to understand the relationship specifically between Paul and Barnabas, but then also between Paul, Barnabas, and John Mark, John called Mark, we need to understand kind of a chronological timeline in the book of Acts. Because as you read through chapter and chapter and verse and verse and section and section, our normal, I guess you could say, default position is to assume that we're just days or months into the birth of the first century church. But that's actually not the case. And what we need to be careful of is that when we read these things, they're not always necessarily happening within days or weeks. They're sometimes in some of these passages, a gap of years.
Timothy Keller Sermons Podcast by Gospel in Life
A highlight from Loving Your Enemies
"Welcome to Gospel in Life. Jesus was a great teacher, but He had a lot of things to say that were challenging or difficult to understand. In the Bible, we see a number of places where His disciples say, Jesus, this is a hard saying. Today Tim Keller is preaching through one of the hard sayings of Jesus and how we can rest in the fact that while Jesus' teachings aren't always comfortable, He is always good. I'm going to read from Luke chapter 6, and I'm reading verses 20 through 36. Our series has continued to be looking at the ministry of Jesus, at His teaching. And what we've done is we've picked out over the last few weeks the hardest sayings, the most difficult, the most difficult to understand, so that we can really look at them and open them up. They take reflection, they take pondering. But as we open them up, we find their wisdom. Today in many ways, we have maybe the most famous of Jesus' hard sayings. It's a hard saying because it's very hard to understand, and people have gone around and around for years trying to figure out what it means. But it's also a very famous hard saying, love your enemies. When someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. Turn the other cheek. Let me read from verse 20. Looking at His disciples, He said, Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are you who hunger now, for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh. Blessed are you when men hate you, when they exclude you and insult you and reject your name as evil because of the Son of Man. Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, because great is your reward in heaven, for that is how their fathers treated the prophets. But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your comfort. Woe to you who are well fed now, for you will go hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you will mourn and weep. Woe to you when all men speak well of you, for that is how their fathers treated the false prophets. But I tell you who hear me, love your enemies. Do good to those who hate you. Bless those who curse you. Pray for those who mistreat you. If someone strikes you on one cheek, turn to him the other also. If someone takes your cloak, do not stop him from taking your tunic. Give to everyone who asks you, and if anyone takes what belongs to you, do not demand it back. Do to others as you would have them do to you. If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them. And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that. And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners expecting to be repaid in full. But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back.
The Bitboy Crypto Podcast
A highlight from CRITICAL Cardano Update! (Shopify Altcoin Partner)
"We are going to have some fun today. The Nictatorship is here in the land of BitBoy Crypto. Welcome to BitBoy Crypto. My name is Nick. Over there is Tim. On the board is Drew. We've got a studio audience today. We've got a lit show. My shirt is on fire. Yes, literally. I appreciate everyone here in the chat. Everyone in the chat is probably gobsmacked that the dictator is here on BitBoy Crypto. But you know what? Ben is traveling. It's at a rare evo event. Hobnombing was a bunch of Cardano people. And Deezy is there too. So hang on. Coffee. So it's my turn to run the ship. And as we all know, we can't have Tim immediately take over the BitBoy Crypto channel. They're just kind of easing him in, right? So yeah, like I'm the bench host, right? And then eventually Tim's gonna earn his spot. And this will be TimBoy Crypto. Who knows? So, oh no, not Nick, says Pedro Lavador. Sorry, bro. It is me. No, not Nick. The Nictators in the house from Paul. Flip a Frank. Nick's shirt looks like a 70s living room set. That's exactly the vibe I'm going for. That is exactly the vibe I'm going for. Appreciate all of y 'all. We've got some incredible, incredible news popping today. Tim, how are you feeling, bro? I'm feeling good. And here's the thing, guys. You need to know whether it's Ben or Deezy or the Nictator, my role on the show is to keep the nonsense to less than 2 .6 percent until the end of the show. And at the end of the show, the nonsense gets turned up to a thousand. So yeah, that will continue today. Yeah, I can tell you what. Ben has a difficult job because seeing myself in like six different spots plus the chat, it's a little overwhelming. But I think we're gonna push through. Or we could just end the show. I could just say steak and then we run the mid -roll and then we're in. We're done. Plus one in the chat, if you want me to end the show right now. Actually, there's a lot of Nictator love going on in the chat. No, we don't ask chat for that kind of power anymore. Sometimes they tell us what we don't want to hear. Well, no, I wouldn't give them the illusion of being able to vote. Just like the elections in the United States. Let's move on. Looking at BitBoy Crypto, we've got 1 .45 million subscribers. We've got videos on Matic. This one's really great. Everything you need to know about Matic. We've got Ben coin to one penny. Big update. XRP domination. This video is probably one of the best ones we've done in a long time. 52 ,000 views. Go ahead and check out our content. We make good content, folks. We do. Okay, we've got a negative one from Nate Wick. Appreciate the vote of confidence. You can simp for me on Twitter at Nick DeMundi. I've got there are flames coming out of my mouth at all times. So just be prepared. I'd say it's 30 % crypto content, another 40 % trolling, and 10 % just sus. Look at that outfit. Yeah, this is my Tyler Durden outfit. So, okay, you want to know the story of this jacket? I think I've told this before on ATB. You have 20 seconds. Do you know where I am? Where? Okay, I am at a Christmas wrap party for Stranger Things season 3. This is actually one of the costumers just seconds that they had spare from the costumes for Stranger Things and I wore it and I was about seven Miller Highlifes in. That's my eighth Miller Highlife in my hand right there. And I'm having a good time. Yes, I worked on Stranger Things. My wife and I worked on Stranger Things several seasons. Great times. Love those people. Cool story. Yeah. Let's get into the market watch. Let's get into the market watch. Tim, I like it. It's passive -aggressive. It's a little snide. I like it because it pisses me off. Let's get into it. It fuels you. Coin market cap, Bitcoin 26 ,059 doll hairs. Hang on. Get this crap off. No one cares about the fear and greed index. Hey, everyone's afraid so guess what you should do? When the fear and greed index is red, you should probably consider buying. Remember, everything I say is financial advice. Is it good or bad? That's up for you to decide. Let's see. 662 exchanges. Volume is in the toilet. Okay, like this is, we've had rancid Taco Bell bowel movements level of volume. It's so low and so heavy it cannot get possibly any lower. Ethereum gas is 36 quay. I don't do the math like Ben does because I'm not good at math. I was a communications manager. Okay, like I need a calculator to do anything other than addition and subtraction on fingers. So yeah, fear and greed at 35 out of a hundred. That's great. Buy the red. Sell the green. Ethereum is at 1 ,645. Let's see. XRP scam coin at 51 cents. I'm just kidding. I hold XRP. It's going to pump. It's gonna make people money. Everyone calm down. Cardano at 26 cents. That's quite a steal and we're gonna talk a lot about Cardano coming up. Okay, what's your, you had, you have some history with XRP at 51 cents, don't you, Tim? I mean, to be fair, my history was actually at 55 cents. It was a little bullish, but I do want to say we're gonna continue on with the show. Negative five points for the dictator for using the forbidden coin market cap. Oh, is that another thing? That's forbidden on this show. So we're gonna have to keep moving on. Should we use lunar crush? But yeah, no, XRP for sure. 55 cents got turned into resistance rather than use of force. We're fixing it on the fly here. There we go. There we go. Alright, you can have your five points back. Is it? So much worse. Listen, this is the new show. Chat. CoinGecko. Chat, tell us what to use. Tell us what to use. Tron is at seven cents. Guaranteed short. If you want to absolutely be guaranteed to find successful shorts, Tron and EOS are your coins. Just look and see what the market's doing and Tron and EOS will probably do the opposite. Dai, hey guys, stablecoins are still at a dollar, which is unfortunately an important headline that we must keep track of. Mm -hmm. Litecoin coming in as a $65 stablecoin. Let's see, Avalanche for under $12 is an amazing scoop. I know Ben doesn't like Avalanche, but look, it's the corporate coin. It is what it is. Stellar at 12 cents. Love Stellar. Chainlink at $6 .17. I think Deezy is actually gonna buy McDonald's Happy Meals worth of Chainlink today. Let's see. What are their movers? Oh, we got to do the 24 hour, right? Can we do that on Lunar Crush? Oh my gosh. This doesn't seem very germane to the conversation. Shout out to all the fantasy gold holders with a 90 ,000 % pump over the last 24 hours. My God. Do you know anyone who holds fantasy gold? No. It has a $157 million market cap. Hey, that's pretty big for them. 24 hour volume is $12. Okay. Or 12 million. Alright, let's, we have to go back to CoinMarketCap. That's the only way I can do this. Oh my goodness. We need the 24 hour price. These, I'm giving the squad what they want. BoneSwap, no jokes, up 16%. Didix, up 5%. Basically nothing. Render under $2. Great, great pick. Maker, Aave, Solana. Let's see. Go down. Let's see who's a loser. Thorchain, Monero. Perennial Loser, Curve. Chainlink. Deezy's Apecoin is still down. Deezy's Apecoin. Oh my gosh. Look at this chart. It's been a rough, good, googly moogly, rough couple months for Deezy. Wow. I would say the fundamentals are not bullish on Apecoin at this point. Hang on. Let me sip this. This coffee brought to you by Trezor. Oh, camera's struggling. Lavazza coffee is what I'm drinking today. Top tier coffee. All the nutrients you need to trade on the fly. It's kind of a new show today. We're going to get into continued market watch, but in the other side of the market that we rarely ever cover on this channel. Mining. Look at this. We're going to cover some mining today. They can't stop me. What are they going to do? Turn the stream off? Let's see. Mining. All of crypto, all of your gains brought to you by mining, because if there was no mining of Bitcoin, there would be no crypto. Let's see. Bitcoin is up 79 % today. BitNet money is up 26 % today. China is up 15 % today. We covered this a little bit on Blockchain Basement last night. Verus coin, very interesting coin, up 6 .3%. This is mineable on a cell phone, on a GPU, on a CPU. It is actually throttled, so there cannot be ASICs that mine Verus coin. It's positioned itself as like a currency coin that is very, very spread out, much like Cardano, as far as decentralization goes, but it's like Cardano proof of stake, but proof of work, and you do it on a phone. It's actually optimized for ARM processors and GPU processors, so very interesting coin. You can mine it on any phone, any tablet, any GPU, any CPU, and actually make quite a bit. Let's see. The gainers for today. Rethereum. This is an interesting project because it's Ethereum as it is now with all of its upgrades, but still proof of work. Okay. They relaunched the Ethereum chain. It's not Ethereum Classic. It's not ETH POW. It's Ethereum with all the upgrades minus proof of stake. Interesting project. I'm looking into it. It's the reward gainers. That means the hash rate has gone down, but the profit of the revenue that you're getting has gone up, so you're able to get 49 % more Rethereum than you were just a couple of days ago. Octaspace. This is actually... I don't know if I should... If you're subscribed to Crucial Crypto, you're gonna know about Octaspace. That's all I can say about that. Kadena. Don't sleep on Kadena. Do you know why no one should sleep on Kadena? Why shouldn't they sleep on it? Because it was made by JP Morgan. Oh, okay. Do not sleep on anything that the banks have a hand in. Kadena is one of those things. Casper. Rewards have gone up 5%, which is probably because a bunch of people sold. All right, what's next? We do merch? Oh yeah. Hey. We haven't done merch in a minute. We sell merch. There's Mirel. This is very intimidating. The rings. There's TJ. Let's go back. If this is a D &D class, what would it be? If Mirel was a D &D class, what would he be? Chat, give us your input on who you think Mirel's D &D class is, given this getup. Let me know. I've been neglecting Chat. Are there any good questions for Chat right now? I don't think yet. No, I mean, a lot of people saying how much they love the dictator and loved him. No, you're lying. No, they, I mean, there were, I mean, there was a mixed bag, but they definitely said they loved it. All right, all right. I believe you now. Hot on the block. We do have some really cool merch. Read the positives. Read the positives. Yeah. Okay, there's your merch. Should we move on? Should we do Ada versus the SEC? Okay, this is a really cool story. So, US SEC not coming after Cardano, Charles Hoskinson whips it out online, explaining the SEC's continuous crackdown on crypto entities is political and has nothing to do with securities laws. Chuckie Ho -Ho, founder of Cardano, believes the United States Securities Exchange Commission will not come after the project's native token, Ada. Interesting. He didn't say not him, but not Ada. Okay, that's fine. During a recent YouTube interview on Corey Costa's crypto coins, shout out Corey Costa, friend of ATB. Hosky pointed out that there has been no enforcement action against Ada so far. Hasn't there been a couple things where people have delisted Cardano? Yeah, a lot of exchanges have delisted in anticipation that something happens, but nothing, like, there's like misinformation out there. I've actually talked to people who think that right now Cardano's in a lawsuit with the SEC and that is not true. Same, same. Before we continue with the story, hit that like button. Drew, where are we at for likes, bro? Pull that mic down. Let the people hear your smooth dulcet tones. We got 288 likes. Need to pump those numbers up. These are, how do I say this nicely?

Leave a comment. Get active in chat. Bro, Drew, give me a poll. Who won the debate last night? Poll the audience. Let's get it going. CritKratz, dictator hosting, very bullish for crypto. Heck yeah, baby. Let's keep on going. SEC is not coming after Ada in two recent lawsuits against the world's leading crypto exchanges, Coinbase and Binance. The SEC classified roughly 12 tokens, including Cardano and a bunch of other ones. PhilCon. PhilCon. That's how you say it. Insisting they ought to be registered. Insisting. More like stamping foot. Should be registered before being listed on exchanges. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong and Harry's Razor's number one customer once disclosed that the agency had asked the exchange to delist all tokens except Bitcoin as they qualified as securities. Isn't it weird that like last week the CFTC said Bitcoin and Ethereum were both commodities? Yeah. I mean, what's what's the Gary wants control, Nick, but this it's over, right? Like no one can serious. No one can take the SEC seriously if another agency says the thing that the SEC says is security is a commodity. I mean, I don't know if anyone has been taking the SEC seriously for a minute now, but we know Gary tries to fight with every weapon he has. And unfortunately, he still has a lot of weapons that don't work very well, but he still uses them. Yeah. And it's the delay tactic. He wants to delay everything he can. Yeah. Yeah. Hmm. Someone said watching Nick is painful. Well, look, pain and suffering makes you a better human being. Okay. Reject comfort. Watch this stream while I host. All right. Who won the debate last night? Vivek Pence, DeSantis, Trump. I would have put Nikki in there instead of Pence because Pence was just like a buffoon. Anyways, SEC's move is political. Yeah. We know this.

"That was I still listen to this song. I like the song, even though that's a bad thing to say, I do like this. But I think if that was a different person seeing that, it would be completely different. Yeah. Okay. Next question is truth like. Do the political views of a celebrity remember whether you are not. Me, I don't do politics. So politics, but you might, you might listen to the views of the two. Like, whether a celebrity supports Trump or not, does that affect? I mean, I'm not really a political person. But like wait. Celebrities political views. Affect how you see them. In my personal opinion yeah. Yes. But that's only because, well, it depends because I'm a very judgmental person and if you agree with what I agree with, I'd like to. And that goes like we've been. So when it comes to politic reasons, if you, let's say, I really don't like Trump. Because he's orange and I have people who look like oranges you belong enough fruit born, but by police to comment. But like, okay, anyways, like if you support him, ew. Sorry. Yeah. Like for the views, do you have the impact on the person? Yeah, it'll probably change them. Because say if they support Trump in rumble and you believe that Trump has to be and they support that they're basically implementing ideas then I think that they're basically for everything they want to like. It really says a lot about the people who support because it portrays it. Yeah. Okay. So, next question. So if I sign off. Next question is, has there been times when you were hesitant to speak or to write such a piece of something? Wait, someone just called me so I heard nothing you just said. By the way. Had there ever been times where you were hesitant to say something, like write a post something in case of being canceled or something. No, if I have something to say, I will say it. Yeah. I'm a very old person. I speak my mind. Like if I generally have a problem with it, I would say it. Okay. Has anyone ever tried to come to me for it? No. If I was someone trying to console me. Like my opinions in my opinions. Okay. So how do you define console culture? So as soon as you can. I define it. Yeah. So someone asked you what is cancel culture. I'm not good at it. You like English, so. Okay, no, no, no. I like English literature. This is a difference. Okay. But this is related to explanations and stuff like that. It could be as an English. So how would you define a pencil culture to someone who asked what it is? I don't know how to explain it. I don't know. Is it like? It's like when you like, let's say it was a celebrity, like you stop giving support to that person and you take all rights off them for their actions that they have done. I think I don't know how it's been because there's different ways you can explain it. And that seems a very limited way for it because it's not just celebrities, but that's the only way I can try and describe it. Well, I would personally like if someone asked me to define that first year coach is like. A way of society's way of a way of society declining them or rejecting them. Off of their own personality. See, this is why you're inset one. I don't know. I'm guessing you're insert one. I don't really have to. But if I did have set, I'd probably be like, set one set to English. Because me personally, I think I'm like you would step three. You see like a set free person. Well, in my class, my teacher says I'm one of the top students. They're lying to you. They just say that. Anyways. Google's definition of cancel culture or call out culture is a phrase contemporary to the late 2010s and early 2020s. Used to refer to a form of ostracism, ostracism, in which someone is given us social or professional circles, whether it be online on social media or in person. Those subjects to this ostracism are said to have been canceled. That's the nerdy Google document. That sounds like what I said, so. It's basically a way of rejecting someone from the society. Based on their own opinion. Personally, I think I said if I needed. It took you 20 years to get one word out. Thank you. Because I was thinking I was protesting. Process well. Next question. Is. No. What impact has it had on you? For me. Does that make sense? Okay, so what do you see as the difference between counseling someone and holding that person accountable? The difference. Yeah, do you think there's a difference? Because. I think I'll call you on this one as well. I'm trying to process so a difference between confidence someone and holding them accountable. Cancer in someone, you. There is a difference. But I just can't leave my finger under different, but basically cancel for basically holding them accountable. You're giving them an opportunity, basically. You will further hold someone accountable for something. No matter what it is, you have to hold them accountable. But you're literally just canceling them. You're giving them no opportunity to redeem themselves. You're literally saying, okay, that's that person by move on. While holding them accountable is a way that someone you can let them change, but it's liquid. It's just something that stays with you. So there is a difference in a way. You know, I can always redeem myself but from the question, like, wow. After a few years. So, to hold someone accountable, it's basically like to justify someone's actions. So I know what's holding accountable means. Yeah. But if I was to answer the question you just asked in a smoother way. No, I'm not asking Google. I'm just saying

"Episode 6 of mrsa podcasts. Okay, so today I'm with Lauren, so learn how you go. Andy and great. Okay, so basically we're going to be talking about consequences, like everything just cancel culture. Every single thing from head to toe in whatever you want to see, you're going to see today, all right? So the first question is, do you think it's fair to search through a person's or tweet to try and find something offensive they might have said in the past? Okay, so before I answer this, I'm going to give you a question reflected on this. And you are opinion, okay? So we have people who are imprisoned and stuff like that, like serial killers, rapists, whatever. And some of them, like half of them get sent to like psych was, to try and be changed. They're trying to change a serial killer's ways. How to change a rapist wades and therefore. Yeah. And you come to a person who has done something like 6 years ago, they've made a comment or they've done whatever they've done. So you're trying to change a person who's killed someone. But I think a person who has said something can not be changed. Even though that person may not be the same as they are now. But how does that work? True because I feel like a lot of the time. Maybe with now knowing that you're maybe famous. Of course, people try to keep more of their opinions to themselves, knowing they might be more chatting. But for some famous people, cancel culture does not exist to them. That that famous, that that privilege to appoint a simply just not exist. And they have the most wildest opinions ever. Public opinions as well. Okay. So do you think it is for? It all depends on the person I think. If that person is a bad person to the state. And they still act a way something like that. Yes, you can go through that as well. You can bring on more evidence or proof to a situation that is going on now. Now back up, use it as evidence. Like ideas history guys take history. But yeah. But let's say there are completely different person. They've done nothing wrong, but let's say a few years ago, they've said something. You're bringing that up out of nowhere. Yes, this was said it actually have consequences for everything they do. We have to hold someone accountable for something. If you're still holding them accountable. Yeah. I agree with the part where you said like, of course, it's something that they've said a long time ago and they're still a bad person like that will still have that same mindset. Of course it makes sense because nothing's changed. If you go for it, nothing's changed. But if there's someone who's now a new developed person, then there's literally no point because everyone has, well, most people have character and development one point in their lives. The fact that they still said it. Yeah. What's been said to me, said okay, so do you know any celebrities who are currently counseled? This is the most obvious person right now Kanye West, so we should talk about him because, you know, yeah. Yeah. Check this out. See, I didn't have any said, do you know any celebrities who yeah, so right now, we have the most famous person. Like Kanye West, he's obviously being canceled. So we should personally talk about him. So why do you think Carnegie skin consoles? Is it not obvious? Everything he does and says, but a massive foot to this. What's the muscle? Well, there's not there's a lot of aspects towards him as a person. Like I think his trauma has developed him for who he is today. I'm not saying that's just before reason. Because you can clearly tell his office mets. I'm sorry, but you know. You he doesn't seem perfectly normal. He seems like something's going up with him. Something like that. Something's going on with. He's had trauma, he's literally, you can just tell. He's just not okay in the head. But you can't obtain that to his mental health. And I know some people are doing that. They're literally saying you can't cancel him. He made graduation. He made this. You have to separate the office from the music. Does the first point you're seeing? Oh yeah, he's not a bad person. He's suit. He's to a certain extent. He's right. Yeah. You know what? We like to go. But basically, in order, recent interview with Kanye West and peers Morgan. So I'm going to stop you with have you watched it. No. Is it like piss marking this in like the interview dude? Like who else is on like kind of show when asked questions to celebrities? Yeah, but yeah. Basically he was interviewing him right. And they were having an argument and he was somewhat a point to me. I'm leaving going to lie. They were just a fake. He did have a point on the U.S.. He did have a point to some of the things. And he's talking about the fact that he's trying to escape the matron. And I think he has been developed by social media himself, like some people in this day and age. Mainly your year not even your year. Well, your yeah. So I'm gonna say my year as well. I was generation of people. That is developed over social media and I think it's like really big this idea of spirituality and the fact the side where people are trying to escape the matrix. And I'm not saying that's wrong because some people have that belief that we're stuck in a matrix, obviously. But I think that the idea and mental health are actually mixing together to make this new person within him and it's just like, it's just so much, but yeah. Okay. I'm good. Okay, so what do you think are the mental effects of cancer culture? Like, within them, like the effects of a person. Yeah, a person who's affected being canceled or threatened to be consult or a person who just is consult or something like that. Whoever is canceled, depending on the reason which is most likely a justification reason. But sometimes it's for the most pettiest things ever. But I think they deserve. The effects that they get. They should be expecting it. Because you say something, you should know that's going to come with something. Like, you may think, oh yeah, I have my opinion or something. I can say whatever you want. But it's opinion correct. Yes, you're allowed to have a clean but is it correct though? You should note that this is going to be something towards that coming with that. So whatever affects they get with it, that's their own fault because they should know it should be coming with them. Yeah. And I feel like people always forget about the fact that there's a digital footprint where you

"Hello future listener and welcome to the best house. The future going the make it. If you're listening to this. I have to believe a main and you wonder how did well but because the comments journey the ups and downs and all the hard lessons learnt so without further. Ado let me present you the star of the podcast drum. Roll please or week me. My name is dan dance. And this is the story of how i became a millionaire or at least i hope so hello everybody and welcome to another episode of sweet bust. I know i haven't posted a lot this week but there are some crazy things happening. Can actually it got me thinking. And that's why. I'm actually recording these podcasts. The question that they wanted to address today is are you the business. Are you a one man show and can actually the business function without you. And don't get me wrong as a freelancer. I always want to work as much as possible and late hours and excitement to build new stuff and everything. But the hokey question here. That bugs me is what what happens when you don't work. Is the business still operating question and the second question is is the business growing so the first thing is whether it can continue operating without you maintain level or it could even continue growing just at a slower rate and risen. One telling me this is that this week actually had to go to the er to the hospital. Because i had a kidney stone attack and while man it hurt it hurts like people usually say the board but i have no idea how to reference for benchmark that but it really hurt a lot so on sunday morning i woke up and with a strong strong pain so obviously i had to go to the hospital. I got admitted. I put a lot of drugs a lots of heavy painkillers to survive it but it knocked me down by a few days. I mean whole week. I haven't went to work with the strong medications with painkillers with everything and just reflecting the whole week because now it's friday and just looking at bisbee and what everything happened over the course of this week. So first wither bisbee continue operating on its own. Yeah i mean it really did. It's just like i went on holiday without phone without email without anything. And i mean i'm so blessed to have a fantastic team because i do have a great marketing team that create content. That attracts leads to us. I have fantastic sales team that actually managed to bring even more meetings and people that actually delivered the meetings and even better execution team and project managers which were able were operationally continue with their activities. So guess what. The company continues working operationally and maintain itself without me intervening. But but here comes the more interesting part. It continued growing some marketing. Keep on creating new content. That start continue attracting new deals new prospects which were actually moved to the cells and this one week while i was away just realized that we had three or four new clients. And that's a lot. Even when i am in the office. I mean have a jockey today. That maybe i should take more free days because when i'm off people i'm not bothering anybody. And they have more time to actually do their job and even grow the business further so it's not like the company can work without meat. It could even continue growing. And i'm actually recalling when when i was a digital number before when i started be i know that me and my wife. We were traveling around europe. And you know you work in the morning to do some sightseeing continue working at night and then you move to the next city and the main reason why we decided to open bisbee is that well i got sick and when i got sick everything was on halt so nothing serious but it knocked me now for like five days with high fever and temperature. I felt like the train hit me. And that's when. I realized this problem. Because while i was unable to work my wife was also unable to work. She had to tend to me. I mean ducey's fluids everything actually and in that week we didn't earn any money. And when you're a digital but it's not like you're a millionaire walking around and think whatever you want you have to keep working so one week being seek meant. It had a huge impact on our lives because we need to then work extra heart in order to recover from and now that was six and a half seven years ago. which is. That's why we said you know what if we want to continue growing these business it has to be beyond me and my wife and that's how we've started six six and a half years ago and yeah. It made me wonder because now. I got sick again. Nothing serious painful. But nothing serious. And i can see how roughly thirty people are in bisbee. At the moment they all continued working marketing. His green find celsius doing perfect operations and executions are doing great invoices are being sent clients or paying. We've even managed to further grow while i will seek so three to four new clients just this week and it really got new bordering. I mean am i the business or now the business can operate without me and for me. Now it's really obvious that the biz biz really self-sustainable company that even if i disappear for six months and i come back. I know that not only the company will still be there and bill. We'll still operate but it will be bigger and better and that's really something that an proud of i mean. I'm so happy to see that that is happening. And i just wanted to share with you guys and ask you the same question. Are you the business. i mean. what will happen if you get sick for a week or two.
