Markets Daily Crypto Roundup
A highlight from Crypto Update | Bitcoin Still Stuck in Limbo
"This episode of Markets Daily is sponsored by Kraken. It's Wednesday, September 6th, 2023, and this is Markets Daily from CoinDesk. I'm Michelle Musso here with your crypto markets roundup. On today's show, we're talking Bitcoin, a death cross, SPF's laptop and more. And just a reminder, CoinDesk is a news source and does not provide investment advice. Bitcoin has remained almost entirely locked below the $26 ,000 mark since September 1st, showing little to no signs of life. BTC is basically unchanged over 24 hours, down 0 .1 % at around $25 ,700. The CoinDesk market index, CMI, is down by a slim 0 .04%. Investors appear to be exercising caution and refraining from significant actions awaiting further developments in both the cryptocurrency market and the broader economy. A crypto market analyst at Japanese exchange BitBank noted, It appears that the majority of speculative funds have already exited the crypto space, and market participants are now anticipating the next move by the Federal Reserve. In September and October, Ether is poised to exhibit superior performance compared to Bitcoin, as per the insights provided by cryptocurrency analytics firm K33. Notably, with a considerable likelihood of the inaugural Ether Exchange Traded Fund ETF in the United States gaining regulatory approval around mid -October, astute investors have an opportunity to leverage the impending momentum that will propel ETH's value. This strategic perspective is articulated by the senior analyst, Vetli Lund. September has consistently posed a historical challenge for BTC, with negative returns observed in this particular month every year since 2016. Consequently, the prevailing odds appear to favor Ethereum, as asserted by Lund, who alludes to Bitcoin's notable 60 % surge during the three weeks leading up to the approval of its inaugural US futures -based ETF in 2021. While regulatory uncertainties persist, it is noteworthy that Binance continues to maintain its supremacy within the cryptocurrency market. As per data compiled by FRNT Financial, Binance's BTC -USDT trading pair has commanded a staggering 86 % share of the worldwide BTC spot market trading volume this year. This data underscores the rationale behind the prevailing perception that Binance is frequently regarded as being of such considerable scale that is deemed, quote, too big to fail, unquote. As the dollar index tantalizes with the prospect of a golden crossover, Bitcoin appears poised to establish a death cross. A death cross typically signals the potential emergence of a long -term bearish momentum, whereas a golden cross conversely implies a contrasting outlook. Bitcoin is on the brink of the death cross in the imminent days ahead, signifying a situation where short -term price momentum lags behind the long term, carrying the potential to transition into a bearish trajectory. Concurrently, Ether, the second largest cryptocurrency in terms of market value, is also poised to approach a similar death cross formation. Throughout its history, the cryptocurrency has encountered nine instances of death cross formations, and intriguingly, a mere two of these occurrences resulted in adverse returns when analyzed across three-, six-, and twelve -month intervals. Notably, on five of the nine occasions, Bitcoin was trading at a lower value one year following the emergence of the death cross. Past data does show that the death cross is not reliable as a standalone indicator. Today's markets updates come from CoinDesk's Jamie Crawley and Amkar Gabole. Stay tuned for after the break to find out what Sam Bacon Fried's attorneys are arguing about now.

"I want some of that why don't you think that's gonna happen negotiation at the end of the year is always pretty tricky and one of the biggest questions we've heard from employers is how do you negotiate salary and then inflationary environment right because you can't have a sense of next year's gonna look like when inflation is all over the place and now we've seen that trajectory go down the balance of power has shifted back again to the employer so what's on the table in terms of negotiation its remote work its benefits its wages it's this whole package of things and yes there are some pockets and some occupations kit that can win the wage negotiation argument a lot of other people are just going to see smaller businesses this year let's underscore this especially because we do get the United Auto Workers vote at 11 a .m. Eastern today and that potentially could have material impact on Detroit and all the auto manufacturers there are you saying that when we say the power shifted to labor that's overstating the fact that's not the reality it's just a small pocket here and there and the rest of them it's the employer saying get back to work and you're not going to get that big of a pay rise it's a fallacy of the labor market as it's discussed as it's talked about like a monolith but it's really just an aggregation of microcosms and some are strong and some are weak and so when you have a union negotiation negotiating a wage. Too cold for four syllable words. And it's early. No four syllable words. There's not enough coffee in this world for that. Have some Tang. Would you like some Tang? Are you on a late night with Jay Powell? Carry on. When have you a supply constraint market a collective organization bargaining structure and the need to increase pay that's like a perfect storm right but that's not the whole market and so you're going to see different opportunities for wage growth in different microcosms of this market can't and we talk about it as one broad stroke. I was making a joke earlier but it's not funny the people here really listen to you in market economics and payroll economics. I want you to speak to four central banks right now. Are we beyond where we can any aggregate nation any central bank any America into one set of economic analysis or are we out front of John Edwards where it's two Americas three Americas or the 28 because ADP looks at it? Why I love this question. Are you okay? I love why I love this question and why I love the theme of this year's conference structural constraints or structural shifts in the global economy is that it's a recognition that the inflation story has been mutated by the pandemic and the trajectory we were on globally in terms of inflation has been permanently shifted and that means that we just can't be cyclical we have to be structural on the drivers of inflation over the long term and the sense that once we get through this episode we start cutting rates and things go back to normal I think that's a little optimistic that misses the whole point that inflation could rise again next year or two years from now or three that it's not going back to a 40 year slumber and that's the important point some people are talking about the long and variable lags we laugh often how long how variable what are you talking about within the labor market how much have rate hikes actually diminished some of the power that you've seen in hiring and the ability to get jobs you know it's been shifting so we're still at record lows in unemployment and what that we've is when had one door closes like large firms in tech hiring another door opens like small firms in fact over the summer sixty percent of the new jobs added were from small firms with under fifty employees these were the Tigers of the labor market very different this this year than last year. We also saw the hiring be very different in the motivation so before last it year was a lot of replacement hiring now you're seeing firms actually add to headcount so yeah the numbers are going to be smaller but they're going to be more real and more persistent and more sustainable it's just not replacement. Let's not do forecast let's do best guesses. Oh I love best guesses. Which is another We're being kind. Best guesses. Twelve months ago. It's forecast you don't back test later. Exactly. We're being kind about this. Twelve months ago unemployment around three and a half percent. Twelve months later unemployment around three and a half percent. When we do this again together next year. Where do you imagine best guess unemployment is going to be? I think it's going to be around four percent. Which is pretty marginal. It's pretty marginal. Is that consistent with getting inflation back towards two percent in your mind? This is what I'm talking about of the mutation in the inflation trajectory. Because those labor shortages are persistent. They're not going away. If you look at the demographic trends of the United States and in advanced economies in Europe you see an aging population. A population that is non -working growing faster than the population that is working. That means there are fewer people producing the stuff that the population needs and that is inflationary. You did this at Maryland with their great public policy program. The bottom line is the middle of America is being carved out. ADP sees this in micro data to four decimal points as well. What's the public policy prescription for the next president of the United States and frankly the next chairman of the Fed to help the middle of America that's being carved out. You're giving me 30 seconds for this answer? I'm going have to a couple of minutes for this one. I think it starts with skills and job growth because one thing I haven't heard yet though I expect to hear today is this innovation boom that is at the precipice of changing how all of us work. And the question for middle America is can they evolve with the change in technology? Right now it's a choice. That technology could make middle America more productive which is when wages grow for reasons the right and no one argues with wage growth based on productivity. That's higher profitability, that's higher standard of living and it's disinflationary. What people do argue with is when it's displacing labor and right now the verdict is still out. I think the hope and the energy is around making workers more productive and that could be helpful. You sat next to Jay Powell last night at the dinner. So what did he tell you he was going to do? What's he thinking? I think it some was guitar playing in his future, maybe some golfing, hopefully some visits with his family. Oh nice. Didn't talk about September 20th big He's retiring. Is that what you're saying? Yeah, I think that those long -term plans, remember talking we're about the long -term, not the short -term immediate future. No, the long and variable lag for Jerome Powell's A Distance to the Next Dead concert. He loves that, doesn't he? Yeah, he's like Massive, yeah. Yeah. Neeba, this was fun. We've got to do this again. We'll do it again soon. We won't wait until backdrops like this. It's just beautiful. It's just beautiful. It's stunning. Yes, definitely. What a great location, CK. It is. I've been looking for bar this morning and in Elk and it's a little, we haven't really showed up yet. You've been looking for a bar or an elk? I wasn't sure. They say They don't say bear. Oh. They call bear what? Bar. What are you talking about? Stop it. Stop. I think you had a few too many and someone started winding you up last night. That would be my best guess. Neeba, you. thank Neeba Richardson of ADP. Mike McKee coming up next. Thank you. Thank you. I'm here in my living room, peering through my mini blinds at a man who's sawing off something under my neighbor's car.

"One If you take the rolling twelve months to now, they're up eight percent. So they're really running out of steam and they're running out of steam simply because of what I've just described Claims inflation is killing them and if you look at their ability to raise prices It seems pretty limited calendar year 2022 as an industry as a group. They managed to get premiums up in aggregate on average three point eight percent. But if you compare that with their those costs were up three and a half percent. So the margins So is it the same thing as just a liability mismatch like we see in the banks when interest rates rise? Is it something like that or is there a fundamental issue? I think there's a fundamental issue in that right now we've got too much property casualty capacity in the market. So prices for consumers are still relatively low and we think they're too low in main areas Homeowners and as a consequence of the competitive nature of the market insurers aren't able to charge the sort of prices they should be charging when you've got claims Inflation running at between 10 and 12 percent. We heard from the Bank of England governor that you inflation know is still a big big challenge within the UK and therefore they're gonna you know kind of keep their rates higher And maybe even higher for longer. What's that mean for the insurance business? In some senses quite good news because one insurers have suffered from for that for the last decade a bit is zero percent interest rates. Most P &C insurers have to invest at the short end in cash or very short dated government bonds. So when you've got zero percent interest rates, you're not making any investment income. So you're very much reliant on just underwriting profit for your whole profit. So we're beginning to see a little bit of good news on the investment side of business the for these property and casualty insurers and that will help them. So which companies stand the best to sort of recover here if they're all kind of up against fundamental problems? I think the ones that are going to fare the best in this sort of market are the largest and the most diverse. So names like Allianz in Germany, AXA in Europe, Zürich. These companies are pretty much, they're certainly right across Europe. They've got businesses elsewhere outside Europe and they've got a good spread. So they're going to fare much better than say a Direct Line or an Admiral which really just focus on UK auto insurance. So that the smaller, more focused guys are going to get really squeezed in our view. All right Kevin, we really appreciate it. Thanks so much Kevin Ryan, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Analyst.

Yo by that used to have to go to the bank every week. Get cash Yet this year that's long gone as many generations of technology that that have come along but is the bank managing you every single one of the customers by nice again Over time your so. We go through numerous now to the point where we'll right now and it what's happened in the code will in many parts of the world was young pool with you know seeing some of our big banking clients on a regular devices and people thought that pre cover that they had pretty high penetration rights of iran on smartphones. But guess what they went through the roof last year could banks because all of a sudden the banking completely Spliced retail bank The the the that that evolving competitive sh- paradigm shift between the banks and the digital banks and the traditional banks. We saw we actually is to become a stop become one So net will you. People have stopped yemen. This was something. I your head really thought about to be honest but i still into co own australian bank couple of weeks ago and Cash handling has plummeted one of the big reasons to have a retail retail branch which is cash handling a type of people. Don't wanna handle keishi anymore aside. We've move money as become eletronic Yeah and look. I obviously haven't traveled use the last twelve months. I mean in the in the us.

I think of the rise of e-trade is an interesting example. Here before e-trade came up no one would think about buying stocks without a broker with. They had a personal relationship with charles. Schwab was popular. But you would call somebody place the order for you and what we see now is stock trading. There is no human behind it made if we look. Robin hood is sorta z. A perfect example of the next phase of that but you know obviously two generations past banking since then obviously with the kick in the pants from ed even accelerated that process which has been underway for twenty years.

Fed Considers Tapering Bond Purchases as Economy Grows
"So much talk about so little time and that is not. I promise you just me trying to get to the good stuff. It actually has been a busy week. Genus malik is at the new york. Times neil richardson is at adp. Hey you too. I kinda hake so neil and let me start with you I want to discuss a little bit. chair powell and his press conference this week in which he said In literally so many words that the fed has made that substantial further progress Or is very close to it to start to reduce its bond buying program the taper He said we've more than gotten there and inflation as we've talked about many times on this program not quite yet on jobs and i guess my question is we've been told it's going to take on another twelve months or a year or year and a half for the for the job market to recover. Why do you think the fed is gonna taper now. Well they are going to reduce their bond buying for one reason and one reason only they wanna get bang for the buck. They're spending a hundred twenty billion dollars a month on bonds. They wanna see some effect in early on. When everything was in chaos in the financial markets and bonds that were considered safe started acting very risky ways. That were unpredictable. That bond buying helped stabilize everything. It was a success story but bang has faded into a whimper. It's not really having a lot of effet particularly in the jobs. Market that has bottlenecks. That are more amenable to fiscal policy in action than monetary policy. Junior you're on that You're on that video. Call with chair. Powell you're probably paying closer attention than i was. But i don't think anywhere. He said the word transitory about inflation. Did that strike you at all. You know. I think it is interesting. I think there's been a real short of decision. Among monetary policymakers to start being a bit more cautious in the way that they talk about inflation either they still say that there are these temporary forces pushing inflation up. There's no reason to believe that they're going to last forever. But i think we've all become a lot more modest about how long we think temporary is going be you know because it's earlier in the year. They thought these these temporary dislocations we're gonna fade within a few months now. It's like pretty obvious that they're not gonna fade until we're well into next year and i think they're real questions about you. Know how how quickly supply chains in particular are going to get back to any kind of normal

Wholesale Prices Hit Record 8.3% In August
"It's been kind of a hodgepodge week to be honest for those of us. Whose specialty is this economy here to help. Sort out are k. davidson. She's at the wall street journal. Also brian chung-hee's at yahoo finance hayatou. So kate i'm going to start with you and with his observation of the news of the day. The producer price index came out this morning. That is of course Prices at the wholesale level up eight point three percent in a year. Do you suppose anybody at the fed or more accurately at the white house walked over to j pals office and said hey. Jay highlight transitory. Now pal well. I don't know about the the white house. Because they they're sticking to the transitory story They they put out some new forecasts. I think it was lat late last month. Essentially showing that they they still think prices are coming down this year by a lot So they they more than doubled. Their forecast for inflation. This year back in february they thought it would be just a little above two percent now. They're at four point eight for the year. That's fourth quarter over compared to the fourth quarter of last year But you know even to get to that point as you pointed out. Prices are so high in consumer prices last month or in july rather consumer prices were five point four percent over the previous twelve months. And that's the highest. They'd been On an annual basis since two thousand eight so their high and to get to the white house forecast they'd have to come down a lot. So i think that they are feeling the political heat over rising prices right. Republicans are really hammering them on this. But i think that they economists there and even at the fed will find out on a couple of weeks. The fed might mark up their forecasts but so far they continue to think that these price pressures will fade

Affirm is teaming up with young ecommerce site called amazon dot com affirms going to be a checkout option for certain amazon customers in the united states. Starting on friday. This is four purchases of fifty dollars or more and then those customers can if they want split. Those purchases up into smaller monthly installments shares of affirm. As of this moment are up forty four percent. Today i guess my first question is is that how good this news is forty four percent or is at least some of what we're seeing i. I'm sure there are a bunch of things that go into a stock spiked like this. But ultimately that's where i start with this like. How good is this for a firm. Well i mean it is really. It's very important news. I mean this isn't something that results in immediate tangible financial impact right. I mean there is still okay. Show me that this actually is gonna work. Show me the money so to speak. But for a business in a firm which generated around seven hundred fifty million dollars essentially in revenue over the last twelve months. It's a big deal in part of the part of the concern with firming. There'd been a couple of things with a firm that if you know they've been worth worth discussing a little bit right.

Different Methods for Structuring Teams in an Agency
"I think dan if i was agency today i would hire a bunch of specialized people. I don't think i'd hire jack-of-all-trades you know. One of the common positions that people come to us and asked us to help them hire is an operations manager because it's kind of last holdout. Most founders are like the operations manager. They are the person that holds it all together. They're kind of the hub in the middle of this wheel and then they have all these spokes so the most sincerely hey. I'm kind kinda pulling the team together. Like i have all these contractors. But like i really need to go out and do something. Higher value generally as business development or sales so. I need somebody to come in here and do this operations role. One of the things. I think is interesting. Is this concept that was brought up in the forum and spin written a lot about on the web is are you going to have a hierarchical structure or a pod structure and of course there's like overlap between what the two things are but typically a hierarchical structure would have that founder. Ceo and then the operations manager. And then say you'd have an seo group with like the top seo person and then you know seo assistant number one number two and there'd be these sort of this hierarchical management of all the seo in the company goes through this like seo lead and then there's this alternative concept of pods where you have like an seo person designer. A sales lead all in one pod and then that pod manages a certain number of clients and at least for us as like bootstrapping a relatively new service business. We've only been sewing recruiting services for twelve months. The pod concept really resonated with us both from strategy perspective. You look at what you're able to charge for your service and then you say okay. Well you know ballpark. I'm trying to get my labor cost to less than thirty percent of what i'm delivering the service for so that you know. Have a margin leftover after all your expenses of executing the service and so then you figure out like what that fraction analyzed pod is going to be and you try to get your costs there and this is the way you can sort of brainstorm new businesses. So i think it's kind of interesting if you look at like a traditional agency you'd say like a recruiting agency say all right. Well i sold this to a client. Now i'm going to have a recruiter. Do all the work and like day cost this and so your rates are going to be a lot higher than if you had this cross functional pod that can essentially split up the work and do it for multiple different clients.

Midlife Weight Gain: Don't Blame Your Metabolism
"Most of us reach our final adult height at around age. Eighteen or twenty. Unfortunately that doesn't mean that we stop growing on. Average americans continue to gain a pound or two a year every year from the time they reach adulthood until age sixty or so when this trend starts to reverse of course by then a lot of damage has been done although gaining a single pound or two over. The course of a year isn't going to make a big difference in your health gaining thirty or forty pounds over the course of your adult lifespan can have a significant negative impact. On your risk of diabetes heart disease cancer and other conditions related to obesity such as knee pain and sleep apnea so what drives this weight gain in middle age. There's long been an assumption that this seemingly universal trend is due at least in part to a slowing of the metabolism in midlife. We've all been told that our bodies engines simply reva little faster when we're younger and that there's not that much that can be done. If we want to avoid gaining weight through midlife we're going to have to spend more time exercising or adjust our food intake to compensate for this inevitable slowing of the metabolism. Now if you refuse to go gently into this good night you can find all kinds of special diets workouts and supplements promising to goose up your middle aged metabolism to the extent that any of these actually succeed in boosting your resting metabolic rate. The effect is likely to be quite small as i've said before trying to lose weight by boosting. Your metabolism is like trying to row a boat with a butter knife. You're going to be rowing for an awfully long time. Without moving very far but a new study is during all of these assumptions about midlife metabolism into the blender researchers used a sophisticated technique called the doubly labeled water method to measure energy expenditure in a diverse population of over six thousand people and these subjects ranged in age from newborn to ninety five years old and they also came from a wide variety of ethnic backgrounds and cultures and the results were almost exactly the opposite of what our observations might have led us to believe not surprisingly are metabolic rate is highest when we're babies it peaks at about twelve months of age and then declined steadily until we reach early adulthood but then our metabolic rate is remarkably stable from age twenty to age sixty. There is virtually no slowing in

Bitcoin Mining With Mike Colyer
"Let's start with Just remind everyone what is foundry and kind of the founding story of this in terms of what you guys are building. Yeah so Foundries a wholly owned subsidiary of the digital currency group and we're focused on supporting decentralised infrastructure. So both on the proof of work side and proof of stake side and We got started about will almost two years ago and We've been building out both sides of that business. We've scaled now to Approaching i think fifty employees which we've got an amazing team here at foundry and we provide so we might ourselves. We provide advisory services.

"Lot of different people in the software world that has done things around databases or things like that but it seems to me that like around discovery and surfacing information within within the enterprise. This is an area that you spent a good deal of time in your curb even before i'll go you. Yes that's right. If you in fact if you look at the competitive set in the market in which i'll go competes. They're really sort of two bookends to that competitive set one end of it. You have purpose built sass. Apps typically for one specific use case quite often ecommerce site surge and then at the other end of the spectrum. you've got the open source. Players like elastic solar and they can solve many different types of such Problems indeed as we as al goalie can win neither one of those. But i have experience of both both of those bookends. If you like of competitive set But the way to think about us is sort of in between both of those ads because we have. We give all the flexibility that you get with the open source but yet we are an api. I model which we can get into what that means really means a lotta people bandied that about. I'm actually hosted so fully the sas business model if you like. And that's one of the reasons why i came to. I'll go earlier in. May of last year. Because i truly believed in the positioning of the company having had experience in the such market before we are hearing a lot more about api first businesses. These days it would be useful for you to talk about what what that means in. Why that's a model that we're seeing a lot more of your absolutely. I mean it festival if you think about you know the the old ways of Satisfying problems you either went out. And you bought a big monolith or you built your you built the application from. Scratch yourself on what we're finding. Is that both of those paradigm 's are cracking a little bit right now under the strain the strain created by the need to constantly. Hr eight because the market is moving so fast. I mean take a look at the last twelve months. Kobe didn't start any new trends. It simply spend the ones that were there up if you think about it and so what we're finding is that people are wanting to find a abed away to build and use some building blocks so api's have been described as the picks and shovels of the information age because you can compose your applications using multiple api's but the difference between an api company and a platform that has some api You can interface with it is an api fest. Company really means three things at least while going. I think too many of the other folks out that in the api first economy as well one. It means at flexibility as in you're able to handle a broad set of use cases so in our case that's not just ecommerce such it's Internal search behind the firewall using us as the The search service when you're composing your own internal applications and many other different cases in between so being able to handle a broad set of use cases. That flexibility is one of the tenants of api. I approach the second Is speed so we build speed into our api so that our customers don't have to do that. Performance tuning As they would have to if they were building from scratch. Let's say using open source. And the third which i personally think is probably the most important is the backward compatibility developers want to solve big meaty business problems for the companies. They work for and they wanna move onto the next one. They want to minimize the amount of maintenance that they have to keep up with and so we take that burden on. And we guarantee the backward compatibility of our

How to Use Milestones to Map Your Customer Journey
"Now the first thing that we do is we break our stages of the work that we do into the common areas that we have for a business so obviously a websites. One content is another. Seo is another big a chunk for us social media. Email marketing paid search. We then throw in sales enablement just the very basic things you get done to to have a sale system in place customer experience when somebody becomes a customer a crm and an analytics and some of those you could make a case for being combined in a lot of businesses but we like to break it into those areas we call them channels because then it allows us to to further drill down and so the process almost works like an assessment. There are certain things in the foundation the very early on stages of building a website. There's certain things that we know need to be done before. That website becomes this lead generation or lead conversion machine for somebody there's certain foundational things in need to get done so we will go through and build a list of those things that we need to get done and then for each of those milestones as we call them. We will sat tasks for those so that if somebody were making taking this assessment and this is a if you look at this as a four-page list and by the way if you get a copy of the ultimate marketing engine you'll get these. You'll have access to these list for marketing. But essentially what we'll do. Is it almost run. Somebody through this like an assessment will tick off all the boxes they can answer yes to and then the ones that they answered no to. That's what we'll go to work on. And that's really one of the beauties of milestone thinking is that there really are only two two answers yes or no so we're not gonna have a question or a milestone. Does the website serve marketing or something goofy. Like where where. There's no real answer to that. I don't know if it serves or not but we would have an a question like is the website built on a content management tool like wordpress. We believe everywhere. Website should be built on a tool like that doesn't have to be wordpress but a tool like that. That's a yes or no. Has the site been significantly updated in the last twelve months.

And what shift do you believe. As a result of this changing dynamic would you expect to see in the leaders of the future coming out of the endemic. What's really interesting. I think i think what we saw. In digital in particular pre pandemic was that most organizations would have a functional leadership team. They'd have all the different functions. You'd you'd expect but they would also then have a digital team and that digital team was off to the side and of course now digital is at the heart of every business and so if that's going to be the case then really digital organizationally has to be put at the heart of the business and in fact i think a good analogy for what organizations of the future is going to look like is really to look at the companies that are digital natives and those tend to be you know software businesses internet businesses. And if you look at them in that digital team is a cross functional representation of every major function in the company so you have digital marketing you have developers you have the experts. You have a digital merchandisers in the case of Product managers and they are all organized around the digital experience often with the chief digital officer or a cto or an s. vp of ecommerce at the lead and so instead of thinking of digital as the tech team we start to think of digital as of as a business team that encompasses multiple cross functional functions all of whom are chartered to go win and digital and treat digital like the product that it is and in doing that they think about digital through the entire life cycle of the journey of the company so athlete iraj.

That's so important and should definitely not be but do you think in six months time twelve months time? This will be less of a fowl t with a bronze and it's something that's very much in the now or are you hopeful that actually this is here to stay because if it is here to stay there my question for many of these glands that I am seen some appetizers world is why are they so many positions on fixed-term contract basis, surely. This should be an ongoing thing. That should be a permanent requirement if you are truly looking to make changes. I'll just be interested in your thoughts. It's just something I've observed. I don't know the answer to it. I certainly hope and pray that you know dni is something that all.

I i would suspect with with all of the all of the possibilities that you bring to the table with your background in toys or my completely off base there not you are you are and i think you know my kids when i started working for langone go. I brought them all kinds of sets. They got more than probably their fair For for kids and so they got a little bit spoiled. But you're absolutely right when you work for company number one. You don't tend to take yourself a series slate as you. Otherwise might you have just so much stimulus to work with and for me a toy as a gateway into your mind and your creativity and the more kind of you know stimulants in promptings you can provide a kid the the better you can foster that creativity within them absolutely that always something that you're that you're into as a kid like toys a big part of your life that direction you wanted to get into with with your profession..
