I don't want to alarm you.
I don't want you to get too excited,
but Bitcoin is officially breaking out here live
on our stream with Tillman and Andrew.
It's happening.
I'll show you the chart.
This is real.
This is not, not a false alarm.
It might actually be time.
We're gonna discuss this and everything else happening
in the markets.
Let us go.
What is up everybody? I'm Scott Melker also known as the wolf of all streets. Before we get started, please subscribe to the
channel and hit that like button. I literally just sent a
tweet while doing that intro. I am a master multitasker. I
wanted to show the world the beautiful breakout that we have
right now on Bitcoin. I'm going to bring on Andrew and Tillman
we can look at it. But here you okay you had descending resistance yesterday you had a breakthrough that on increasing
volume that's good from a technical perspective but more importantly bounced off the 50 ma now
above the 200 ma and if the day can close like this this is the first higher high in a series
of lower highs and lower lows since the all time high.
This is the kind of thing that makes technical analysts as excited as Kanye West is when
he sees his cousin.
$89,193 Bitcoin right now.
But I think more impressively, can I show you guys another chart? This is
interesting. This for all of the correlated homers who think that Bitcoin just trades
like Big Tech. This is Bitcoin versus the NASDAQ. Does that look correlated to you?
No. Because last I checked, Bitcoin's making an all time high again as we speak against
the NASDAQ. This is Bitcoin versus Big Tech.
If those look like assets that are trading together,
then I have a luxury condo to sell you on the moon.
Those things are not the same.
Yeah, Bitcoin has a way of surprising to the upside
at times where nobody expects it to surprise to the upside.
It's got a decade of history of doing things that we don't expect it to do.
At times we don't expect it to do it.
The truth is, is that we're in a moment right now where at least as it relates to commentary,
all the commentary is negative. But here's
the thing, Bitcoin doesn't have ears, right? It's not interested in commentary.
It's simply interested in capital. And capital is taking flight
into Bitcoin in a meaningful way, then that's why it's going higher. You know,
oftentimes we get bogged down in price movement associated with this narrative
or that narrative or this or that.
The fact of the matter is, is that when Bitcoin's price go up, there are more buyers than sellers,
period, end of story.
Funny how that works.
Yeah.
And so there are more buyers than sellers right now for whatever reason.
And it's interesting that as market dynamics collide,
you know, across global markets associated
with all sorts of narratives,
the Fed, Powell versus Trump,
tariffs, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,
Bitcoin has kind of been allowed to get back to its ethos,
which is, you know, an uncorrelated asset.
It's about- I thought you were gonna say up only.
I thought you were gonna say up only.
The original ethos of Bitcoin being up only.
Yeah, up only was a terrible podcast.
Anyways, so moving to an uncorrelated asset.
It's an uncorrelated asset associated,
disassociated from narratives.
And we've been seeing that over the past couple of weeks.
And it's great to see, frankly, it's really great to see.
Yeah, Bitcoin to me is proving in this cycle that utility matters.
That's the big thing for me is like, remember in the last cycle, everybody was talking about the utility of coins and NFT utility and Bitcoin has been deemed to be an anti inflationary instrument.
The correlation that Bitcoin does have is inflation.
It's the best indicator of inflation that we've ever invented on the planet Earth,
because it covers the global inflation rate, not just the domestic inflation rate. It cannot be
manipulated. Just like if you look at the last 20, 30 years of the price of gold and silver,
gold's breaking out right now, but it's been highly manipulated. There's been lots of lawsuits
about it being manipulated.
So why would you manipulate an asset like gold or silver?
Well, because you need to correlate it to inflation and the appropriate at the appropriate
rate to sell the story.
The Bitcoin is breaking all of that.
You cannot manipulate the price for a long period of time.
And we're seeing that right now. I do think that
knee-jerk reactions in the global market when liquidity is tight,
everything sells off, right? But then everybody starts to sit around and go, okay, well, we've sitting on a bunch of cash now.
What are we gonna do with the cash
during this next phase? And if you look at what could and what should happen,
there's gonna be a lot of money printed over the next phase.
That is something I think everybody can agree upon.
And if you can agree upon that and you know that-
What? Not everyone.
Mike McGlone says, we learned the lessons of the past.
We never learned the lessons of the past, Mike. We never learned the lessons of the past. I never learned the lessons of the past, Mike.
We never learned the lessons of the past.
I'm not trying to be critical.
I'm saying that-
What if the lessons of the past were to continue inflation?
Cause that's what we've been doing.
I can't believe it.
Listen, our economy is built on that.
The question is, is can you innovate?
How long can someone or a country innovate
to keep up with its inflationary rate?
And I would argue we're on the precipice of the largest change in human
behavior through quantum, through AI, through all of the decentralization
of computing power. Like that's gonna change the world in ways we can't even
predict or comprehend and it's gonna make it a lot more efficient. It's going to make it a lot more profitable.
It's going to expand technology to all the corners of the globe, which create new markets
where more money can be floated into the market because it needs it for liquidity purposes.
Like all these things, I think, are pointing to a new age of technology, an age that really, I mean, if you just look at
what's happening in the AI space, my kids were telling me something yesterday and they were like,
that's not, there's no way that'll happen in our lifetime. And it's, they don't understand how
quickly AI is doubling its intelligence and tripling its orders of magnitude beyond even our comprehension
its scalability at rates that we've never seen before.
I asked Paulo Ardoino, the CEO of Tether on podcast recently and every conversation by
the way with any builder in crypto now goes immediately to AI and exactly what you said
the exponential rate of growth because I always ask people, yeah, you know, like what do you
what's your vision five, 10 years what What does crypto look like? And two or three years
ago, it was a very different answer than post AI. Now his
answer was literally, okay, well, obviously, we're gonna
have a billion robots, humanoid robots in 10 years, obviously
powered by AI, and they're going to be transacting in tether.
And you're not gonna have any part of it, right? They might be
doing it on your behalf on their own behalf, but that is what's coming.
Now I can't say that it will be actually tether,
but now you can't be like, oh, in 10 years, you know,
maybe we'll have a meaningful level of adoption.
Nope, the robots are gonna be like dominating us with AI.
No question.
Well, it makes sense that if crypto brings
instant settlement, but the risk to instant settlement is errors, right?
Then having an AI agent sitting on top
of the transactional power of a human being
and or a corporation makes all the perfect sense
because there will be less errors.
It will cost you less to deploy.
And quite frankly, the accounting's done
as the transactions are reading on like it's all
integrated the efficiencies of scale there are enormous it kills multiple industries in one fell
swoop yeah here's something interesting speaking of instant settlement because you gave me a nice
segue the cfdc seeks input on 24 trading perpetual futures. Okay, for those who don't know
what that means, that means that we're considering going full BitMEX on United States futures
exchanges. This is actually something that's being considered, but we already know that I think 23.5
has been approved for the NASDAQ, right? 23 hours a day, five days a week.
That's because of crypto.
The pressure of crypto trading 24, 7, 365
is making a definitive change
in the way that markets will trade,
but they're also looking at perpetual futures.
A type of contract popular outside the US
and gaining traction, digital asset trading.
Yeah, every single exchange, it's making billions of dollars. That's the
contract that they're doing it on could be coming to the
United States. And all of that has to do with their sentiment
that you're talking about.
Who are the CFTCs and the SECs constituents, right? It's the
Charles Schwab's, it's the Robin Hood's, it's these
organizations, right? It's these organizations that, you know,
manage wealth for folks.
And so for all intents and purposes, those individualized entities are beholden to what
their clients want.
And so if they're seeing meaningful movement away from their platforms to places where
they can get 24-7 liquidity and 24-7 optionality, then at some point,
they have to go back to their regulators and say,
hey, we're losing clients, we're losing assets,
we're losing traction with a more than comfortable
percentage of customers and we don't like it.
So we need to make some changes.
So let's have a conversation about what those changes are.
Charles Schwab just announced that they're going to add crypto trading to their platform.
That's mind blowing. Charles Schwab has been around since the freaking 1800s.
So if Charles Schwab is going to add crypto trading to their platform, then by extension they have to be open all the time.
Well, they have to be.
And if you look at like Coinbase and you look at Kraken, you look at Binance,
ViBit, these monster exchanges are not only changing the paradigm from TradFi exchange, how they operate in terms of
24 7, 365, but look at the amount of money that we as crypto people are willing to pay in fees
in the crypto space versus the traditional space. In the traditional space, it's a race to the
bottom. It's like, let me give you a little bit of incentive
to come to our exchange,
because we can reduce your fees from 25 cents a trade
to 23 cents a trade.
Does that sound good?
I mean, it's like nothing.
You're arguing over like table salt type of incentives.
Whereas on the crypto side,
how have they gotten new members?
It hadn't been by reducing their rates.
It's been by putting new coins on there that people want to buy.
That is why people go to new exchanges.
When someone launched an ICO, why did you open up a new exchange?
Well, because that ICO launched on that exchange and that was the only place you could get
it.
And so one industry, crypto, is focusing on innovation
to drive growth, which allows you to charge the customers
a lot more money, a lot more profitable business
with a lot fewer employees, a lot more scalable,
all of the above.
So you're seeing a major shift, not just in timing,
but in profitability in every aspect of being an exchange.
And that's why Solana meme coins are flying and the rest of the market is languishing
because in the past cycle, when you wanted to trade Doge, you had to sign up to an exchange,
wait three months because there was such a long backup and then you could get access
to trading Doge.
Now you just get a wallet and you go into the metaverse or wherever the fuck these degens are doing whatever the fuck they're doing because I have no idea still how you buy a goddamn mean coin because I'm a boomer.
You don't do it.
They go into the files are in the computer, they go into the computer, and they don't need to sign up for anything. And they can just throw that money. It's like a slot machine that'll take your full $100,000
instead of taking it $1 at a time.
Like you just throw it all in there and done.
Well, that's why.
That's the point is that traditional legacy wealth
management organizations are not stupid.
And what they realize is that at some point,
there's going to be a wealth transfer from boomers
down to those other generations, the Gen Z millennial type
folks who know how to do what you just talked about.
I don't know how to do it either.
I don't want to learn.
But there's a reason why decentralized exchanges have
enormous amounts of flow on a daily basis.
That still exists. So if you're a Charles Schwab, if you're
a Robin Hood and you're trying to keep up with those type of entities, which by the way,
a significant portion of those entities, Kraken, Gemini, Coinbase is already public,
there's going to be others. It wouldn't surprise me if a decentralized exchange goes public here in the next 24 to 36 months.
A Uniswap, right? Completely unfettered at this point.
So those types of entities, again, are really pushing the envelope associated with the idea
and how you walk through the process of quote
unquote wealth management. What does that what does access look like? And so again,
the CFTC talking about perpetuals, talking about 23.5, which will turn into 24-7. Again, if you're 24-7 and you're Black Rock and
Citadel wanting to do that, tokenizing trading for all intents and purposes and
open up an entirely new exchange, 24-7 is way better than whatever it is 8 and 5,
right? Because 8 and 5, you're limited as to the amount of flow that can
happen, which means you're limited to the amount of capital that you can consume. 24-7
blows that particular top off of that. So the ability to make more money just increases
by a figure of about three X.
Well, and if you love economics, like free markets are supposed to be unencumbered. So somebody's saying,
oh, you can't trade because I'm asleep. That's not unencumbered. Like, you should, we should be
trying to develop markets that have as little friction as humanly possible based upon the,
where we are on the technology curve. And this is a massive leap forward. And I don't think I will tell you this I was very upset about what happened
with the whole XRP lawsuit and that whole debacle over the last four or five years.
I'm very pleasantly surprised with the purchase of this exchange. I didn't understand the stable coin
when they launched that but they have a plan and they seem to be
on the same wavelength as the rest of the big boys,
which is we need exchanges propped up
that are fully integrated across TradFi and crypto.
Because if you do that, you by definition are 24 seven
and which side of the house is going to win.
So it even pushes the market further
in having to compete with one another
because they're literally side by side.
And it gives you a ton of arbitrage opportunities
that you can't otherwise harvest
and can't take advantage of.
So I think they're onto something over there.
It's going to be interesting to see.
Cause again, back to like this cycle being about utility,
that would be a great utility case for XRP it's depth of liquidity they could
provide high interest loans and all sorts of lending functionality within
the exchange based upon how much XRP though they'll it's instantly settled
or as close to instant as you'd ever want like there could be some real again
I still say that a lot of these
altcoins are going to be gobbled up by private industries and they're going to be put to,
you know, put to the test as it relates to the use case and to the efficiencies they
can provide. And I think a lot of them are going to be implemented across major global
corporations as efficiency deltas, as efficiency improvement.
There is a utility associated with crypto that has been literally staring us in the
face that we don't want to look at.
And that staring in the face is again what we've just been talking about for the last
15 minutes is the adjustment in significant changes to traditional markets and how they function like that in itself is utility that in it is of itself is the reason why crypto is compelling and has made meaningful change across finance.
you know high-minded folks that have been you know vc type folks in the world of crypto and the reason why they're at this point i'm not going to name names but i've seen several posts over the
last few months you know associated with you know being being being this uh well if i were to melt
some cheese i'll just leave it at that. So, just disappointed in the overall,
the overall value associated with crypto, right?
Like, oh, crypto's boring now,
crypto's not what I wanted it to be,
crypto hasn't given me.
All that is, is just crying over spilled milk,
slash crying over my bags aren't worth
what I hoped they would be worth. Like, that's what they're crying over spilled milk slash crying over my bags aren't worth what I hoped they would be worth.
Like that's what they're crying over. So it's not about utility associated with some weird dick butt app
that you thought was cool and you had a party at one point and that was interesting.
But it was all dudes.
Yeah, yeah, of course it was all dudes.
All dudes. Yeah, of course it was all due to. But again, we're talking about utility
that's making massive and considerable change
to financial markets.
That's utility, that's utility at scale.
So if you wanna talk about what has crypto done
over a 10, five and 10 year period,
Bitcoin, need I say more, stable coins
are taking over transactional value as we
speak and will continue to and then massive changes to how financial
markets work and function and are structured. I don't know that's that's
pretty serious stuff man. Well and you have you have RWA's knocking on the door
like they're next right you're You're going to start seeing big, big real estate developments being this.
One of the I was trying to do this six years ago because it's a fantastic use case.
But you know, all these institutional development funds that you have to have $10 million cash to contribute in order to get in and it's invite only and it's only because the developments cost and you know some crazy about $300 million a billion dollars and they don't want to have to do mountains of paperwork to collect a hundred grand or fifty grand. They want to just do a little bit of paperwork and collect $10 million chunks
or above. And so that what does that do? That precludes a lot of people from participating.
A lot of people. Well, blockchain can change that. Blockchain can absolutely democratize
the access to those types of opportunities, because all of that paperwork is done on chain
and you don't have to do it on the paper anymore.
It's done automatically.
So there's these things that are gonna be coming out,
I think in the very near future
that to Andrew's point are changing markets, right?
Changing access points to markets.
And that includes in my estimation,
commercial real estate
and institutional type
investment opportunities.
I don't mean to interrupt,
but I know I was laughing on the side and there's a reason.
I think that we just had the best accidental comment
in the history of comments in the chat.
Okay.
Athena will blow people.
Wait, wait, next comment, we'll blow people.
Next comment. Next comment.
Mind.
I'm sorry. Sorry. I'm sure I was listening to you guys.
The institutional adoption of dick butts and Athena will blow people. You know, we
of dick butts and Athena will blow people. You know, we've just had a new standard.
Thibaut says dick butt app?
Yeah. Is that what I heard?
Yes, the crypto dick butts were very popular
at NFT collection and community.
Melton Demir is a very passionate crypto dick butt.
I know that.
Yeah, it's a real thing.
Oh man.
Yeah, well, here, therein lies literally
the last four sentences that were uttered on this show there in lies the the different levels of real world actual changes associated crypto and stupidity right I mean that those are the those are the differences right and so you can do some stupidity stuff and build a community around
stupidity and make some money around stupidity. I mean, there was a world back in the 70s
where Pet Rocks sold like hotcakes. But we're in a time period now where you're having Charles
Schwab make, you know, put out press releases associated with crypto trading.
You have the CFTC and the SEC making adjustments
to the way that markets work, the NASDAQ doing the same.
These are all happening at the same time.
You have the president launching mean coins.
I mean, that says it all.
I mean, that tells us that everything
that we could have thought would happen has happened
because that's kind of the
final straw. Well you also have again with with these structural changes
associated with markets, it's my belief that you know two to three years from
now when we're still doing this podcast the conversation will be will be very
very different than where we are now and it will probably be more
Serious, right because we're gonna have Bitcoin mortgages. We're gonna have bitcoins
we're gonna have options that turn into a huge huge market a
reminder to everybody listening to this that the reason that Larry Fink
A reminder to everybody listening to this, that the reason that Larry Fink connects Bitcoin's total market value and cap in the future to the mortgage market and cap that happened over a period of time, somebody like that doesn't say that unless they believe it. Remember that everything that Larry Fink, you think that people in crypto Twitter take what you and I Scott say and they hold us you know accountable for it to some degree.
Imagine what Larry Fink says and who holds him accountable. It's a whole
another level right. So for him to say something like that, that lives forever.
It lives forever. So we're headed into a space. Well, I mean, I don't just look at it from what he's saying.
I look at it as why, why is it, why would he say that?
Why would he say that Bitcoin is the same
as the mortgage opportunity?
Well, I think it's because he understands one thing.
You can't like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac,
why would anybody including
the government buy and back mortgages endlessly with very little on-the-ground
due diligence against the asset? Like why would that be a good business model for
anything, any corporation or any government to embark upon? Well, because
they know one thing, that they're going to continue to inflate the dollar and
there's only one corner at 101 East West Street, right?
Land is scarce.
By definition, it only has one spot.
You can only be standing on one lot once.
So there's this natural rise in price that they can guarantee is going to happen.
So if you're buying mortgages for a 30-year period, you're really safe because 30 years from now,
everything is going to be more expensive than it is today. Period. The end. And so,
like land and Bitcoin do have this one characteristic that allows you to build
infinite liquidity on it, in my opinion. And it is, and you can bank it from every corner
in every local regional bank, and you can have all that debt flow up to a central entity that
buys it and holds it for a long period of time. Like that's, in my opinion, why he sees the beauty
of where Bitcoin can go, because it's, in my opinion, why he sees the beauty of where Bitcoin can go,
because it's, those characteristics allow it to go there.
I've had a couple meetings, which I rarely do,
with projects of late, things that are being built,
things that are being launched,
and the most compelling ones right now
are all Bitcoin-based.
I mean, Andrew, to your point about Bitcoin bonds
and Bitcoin-backed real estate,
I mean, these haven't even launched, maybe bonds and Bitcoin-backed real estate, these
haven't even launched.
Maybe I'm not supposed to even talk about them yet, but People's Reserve is one.
They believe that Bitcoin is effectively the most pristine form of collateral.
So the things they're going to do are crazy with bonds, mortgages, self-repay mortgage.
I mean, it's really crazy.
I hope that at some point when they're launching, I'll have them on.
Meanwhile, I don't know if you've seen this company,
it's been on a bunch of podcasts,
but doing basically Bitcoin denominated life insurance.
So it's the same as any whole life insurance policy,
but instead of being denominated in dollars,
it's denominated in Bitcoin.
I mean, these things are so obvious.
Both of them require the belief that Bitcoin is in itself money
and a viable denominator.
But the point is we're going to end up getting every single product that we have to nominated
in dollars eventually denominated in Bitcoin.
If Larry keeps going, we're going to get that.
That's correct.
And by the way, it's my belief that Larry thinks that his particular stack of Bitcoin and his customers particular stack of Bitcoin is going to be the base layer for again, what you just described and what you just showed us.
There's not just going to be two companies doing this two years from now. There's going to be 200 companies doing it two years from now, because it's going to happen really fast. So again, we're in a
spot where two years from now we're going to be talking about the Bitcoin economy and alpha
opportunities associated with arbitrage, with bit bonds, bit mortgages and bit options, you know,
all at the same time, right? And so the scale of liquidity associated with it is going to explode, absolutely explode.
I want to, this is interesting because we obviously have had months of outflows from
ETF products, from investment products surrounding crypto in general.
For a little while there, it was like, hey, 10 million inflow, hooray.
Yesterday ahead of what's happening right now to some degree, 381 million inflows.
So obviously, yesterday was a huge volume day on a big candle spread breakout.
So not entirely surprising, but it feels like in this case, it was almost front running the big news,
that we got a hint from ETFs of what was likely to come for Bitcoin price, which is not usually
necessarily what we see, but 381 million inflows right now after a long trend of outflows and no
discernible reason when stocks are down and there's fear in the market
What do you make of this huge spike? Who is that that's buying?
I mean usually it's a bunch of retail buying ETFs, but I don't think everybody got together yesterday
It was like this is this is my time. So there's something else happening here. I think the tariff situation was
It was shocking to me because number one, if you really think about it,
if tariffs escalated and we had a very high tariff environment globally, you can't tariff
Bitcoin.
It's tariff proof.
So that asset would, I think, eventually thrive even more so. But the knee-jerk reaction of everyone when they don't understand what's next is to go
to cash.
And so you saw this massive sell-off, this huge transfer of position.
And I personally think that that's the sign that the institutions, you have to create
volatility inside of this type of an adoption curve in order for them
to accumulate their position.
And so bad news, when retail freaks out about bad news, they take advantage of it.
They don't have to, they're not looking at a one year, two year timeline.
And it's like the people who are bored with Bitcoin at 83,000 or 85,000, they're looking at it and going,
what else can I put my money into?
And or the economy is hurting a lot of people
and they may need the liquidity.
Those types of circumstances though are
what fuels the next leg of the race
because the institutions aren't gonna,
they're gonna do everything in their power
to keep it volatile and keep it as
low as possible until they have their bags.
I think I read that right now. It's going to be previous to the
last two days, but Bitcoin is actually historically low
volatility from four billion. And I know that it's been far
less volatile than the S&P. So this whole three times volatility of the stock market,
that shit's invalid now.
Well, I would say it's invalid if you,
it depends on what timeframe you're measuring on.
Yeah, yeah, cause if you look at some of the wicks
that Bitcoin has incurred over like just a, you know,
one hour timeframe, for example,
it's, I mean, it's still there
that you can play those pretty nicely.
But we also did see on a fake tweet
about a 90 day tariff pause,
the S&P go up about 10% in 10 minutes.
12%, NQ was up 12%.
It ended the day 12%, which by the way,
like not a sign of a healthy market.
No, it's not.
Well, it's thin liquidity, thin, thin trading.
Yeah, it's, we're in a position where and I know Jeff Park has talked about this a lot where
volatility is dead. We didn't understand it. Yeah volatility is the name of the game.
By the way he commented on our are there two or three Jeff Parks and we just don't know it.
And by the way, he commented on are there two or three Jeff Parks and we just don't know it.
He's like, where did this conversation come from?
I was probably at another place doing my other thing
that nobody knows about.
Yeah, he was on the Netiverse.
Right.
And he was talking to Michael Salem.
But his point about grabbing volatility and squeezing alpha
out of it, he's spot on. There's going to continue to be volatility.
What's it going to look like? Where is it going to show up? I mean, that's the game of Wall Street
and you're creating outsized returns on a go-forward basis. So is it going to be in
Bitcoin? Is it going to be in other tokens? Is it going to be in traditional markets? Is it going to be in options? Is it going to be in the old markets and
product that hasn't been created yet? Like again a reminder, last year the most
traded ETF on the planet was 2X long Nvidia, right? What does that
presuppose? That presupposes that two or three years from now? Will it be a surprise?
If the most traded ETF is 2x long or 2x short Bitcoin
Yeah, it absolutely does or
Shocking could it be 2x long or 2x short a Solana ETF or an XRP?
Because those are coming Paul Atkins just got you know
or an XRP ETF because those are coming Paul Atkins just got you know finally stamped in and he's now the guy at the SEC like all these ETFs are coming and
they're kind of gonna come quick I think it's gonna be a little bit of that I
think it's gonna be a lot of companies announcing that they've gone to the
Bitcoin standard I think there's so much potential volatility that's pinned up in an
announcement like that, that it's almost like it's it's the highest form of gambling
that exists, which tells me it's going to present itself in the markets, which,
what I mean by that is like if GameStop,
if GameStop gets a little momentum in nibbling into the Bitcoin
standard like they are, and then they decide to go full tilt. Like we're buying $3 billion in
Bitcoin and they announce it overnight. Why would a company like that do that? Well,
they have a multiplier effect in their share price. They have incentive beyond the Bitcoin.
So it doesn't matter that they have to buy the Bitcoin at a higher price
That's what Michael Saylor has been talking about that a lot of people kind of get lost in is he says I buy all the tops
Why does he buy all the tops he buys all the tops because that's when he gets the most
Leverage against his share price when bitcoins at its highest price because his share price is a multiplier of that share
price because his share price is a multiplier of that share of Bitcoin's price he gets leverage that doesn't exist when it's on the dips so he gets
to buy more Bitcoin which is a self-fulfilling prophecy in the in the
direction of where his stock goes and where the price of Bitcoin goes and it's
that kind of infinite money loop so if you see corporations I think that you
know Twitter's been buzzing for
a couple weeks now. There's a huge corporation that's about to be announced that nobody knows
who it is and it's bigger than GameStop. Well, I think that's going to be really, really prevalent
and important. And even Jeff Park and Bitwise, they put together that ETF. What is the ETF? It's companies that have
Yeah, yeah exactly well not just adopted it but adopted it to a certain standard to the Bitcoin standard that they've set which is a huge
But high high bar
It means that you're basically going into the Michael Saylor camp and leveraging everything that you've got in your company towards that effort.
It's not like, hey, we're going to add 3, 5%.
It's like, hey, you're going to have a billion dollars worth of Bitcoin on your balance sheet.
And you're going to have X number of percent of your cash availability put into Bitcoin.
So that type of thing, I think, is going to provide a massive delta opportunity
in terms of trading over the next year, two, five years, because companies are going to
continue to come out and announce it because they need to raise capital. And it's the easiest
way to raise capital right now. If you have a public company and you're sitting on a lot
of cash and your industry is dying because it's a legacy industry, this is like no brainer territory.
Well, just look at GameStop,
and again, another bad take by high-minded VCs,
there was a take out there that,
well, just look at GameStop
and adding Bitcoin to your thing is now,
it's a little bit played out,
it hasn't had the response that they thought that it would have.
GameStop was less than ten dollars a year ago, and now it's at twenty seven.
I don't know.
That seems like a reasonable increase in share price associated with being adjacent
to Bitcoin, adjacent to Sailor, adjacent to the conversation and then now making a
move to do it.
So a borderline 3X, you know,
to your share price seems like a meaningful outcome.
So volatility is here to stay.
And you know, we're gonna put ourselves in position
to benefit from that volatility.
Ergo, Scott, if you don't mind.
I've got the Bitcoin one.
There you go, there you go.
That one right there.
I don't have to tell me stuff anymore.
Yeah, you don't have to tell me stuff anymore.
So here's the thing, right?
So volatility is going to continue
and it's very, very difficult to stay up for 24 hours
and try and be the best trader on the planet and grab
top ticks of green candles, bottom ticks of red candles, build a position that way and
create cash yield. That's what we do at ArchPublic and we do it in a way that nobody else does
it. So, you know, a picture absolutely says a thousand words
and there's the picture.
Look at the purple arrows
at the tops of those green candles.
That is tight, man.
You sold, it sold before we're going to 400,000
by tomorrow, I'm sorry.
Yeah, but it only sold a tiny little amount
because it's a long bias strategy, right?
It's a 2.25x long bias strategy.
So all the times that it purchased down at the bottom of those red candles,
it's 78, 79 and 80,
you still hold huge amounts of that position while again,
creating cash yield.
Here's the other thing about the Bitcoin ecosystem and all the talk
so far this year and most of last year was,
well, how do I get yield on my Bitcoin stack? I've got a bunch of Bitcoin. It's tripled in price.
How do I get yield? Where do I get yield from without giving up access to my Bitcoin,
like leveraging or lending? Here's your answer. Here is absolutely your answer.
Doing it and giving you yield in the middle of the night that top tick candle on the green candle right there was at 2 a.m
Even if you're Scott Melker the greatest TA guy in the history of crypto you can't hold that off
Ever I used to do but I could I used to be able to pull that off because I'm not kidding like in the very end
Of like when I would go back and do a couple random DJ gigs here I
would sometimes have a chart open.
Well, okay. Well, there you go. You've got to be everybody's
leaving. Yeah, you gotta be let's go.
Gotta be a DJ DJ that's up at 230.
A.M. It's also trading Bitcoin.
90,000 American dollars for one. Yeah, it doesn't matter. Bitcoin
is one Bitcoin
Well, here's the thing. It's like that's our PDA. Look, there's exactly. Yeah, we'll talk about that in a minute
Go ahead tell me well, I do volatility is an asset. We keep hearing Michael Saylor say that he's like it's it's a feature
not a
You know discount the feature of volatility allows you to set traps both ways. If Bitcoin goes up
by 2.5% on a four-hour candle, sell this many dollars worth. If Bitcoin goes down in this
timeframe by this percentage, buy this many. So what it does is it allows you to, if you've
ever been catfish fishing, you set the lines out or tuna fishing, you set the
lines out and you go inside and you troll and you wait for the fish. And
that's a way that keeps you unemotional. It keeps you from having to sit in the
chair and trade. There's a lot of advantages but it also allows you to
execute quicker and with
more precision than you could otherwise, because otherwise you're left to your own devices,
you start convincing yourself, and quite frankly, you can't move your finger fast enough. So
there's all sorts of benefits of using automated trading, and that's why we've made it free.
We want people to see behind this curtain. We want people to know the power
that exists. This type of technology has been being used for decades, literally decades by all
the firms. And so now this is for you. This you can download it. You can have it on your computer.
You can absolutely run it for free. You can use across multiple symbols, XRP, Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin.
You can use it to accumulate,
you can use it to unaccumulate or to sell out of a position.
You can use it for the chop and trying to create cash yield
based upon your own custom percentages and your thresholds.
It is absolutely a institutional grade tool
that is now available to you.
And here's an interesting concept.
So the term ALGOs has some sort of a negative connotation
in crypto.
But in traditional finance, that is how business is done.
Like the New York Stock Exchange 40 years ago
had 7,000 people on the floor screaming at each other
with paper.
Nobody exists on that
floor anymore. Why? Because algos exist. 80 plus percent of all transactions in
traditional markets are affected by algorithms. Period. End of story. You
don't have access to it because it's only used by institutions and the
highest of high net worth people that have access to it.
We've brought it to anybody that wants to use
our free product with $200, $70, $500.
You can use our product and our technology for free.
So we're democratizing,
we're literally democratizing finance.
We're bringing you technology that you don't have
access to unless you're 50 million long at Goldman Sachs.
That's what we're doing.
Seeing is believing. That's why we've made it free. Come check
it out and we'll help you learn the feature sets. We'll help you
navigate learning the software until you can literally play with it for endless time
periods.
We have about four different base strategies
across four different symbols.
And you can change the parameters
to make an infinite number of strategies.
So this is literally not a one size fits all.
This is a fully customizable software suite is the point.
And we'd love to show it to you. We're very passionate about it. Volatility can
be an asset is the bottom line, but you need to be ready for it. And if
you're not sitting in front of your computer waiting with your finger on the
mouse and you haven't done all the math, then you're not ready for it.
This allows you to do all that, set it forget it And when those things happen in the real world, then you get to take advantage of it
So what's going on here with the XRP algo?
So yeah, it's good to highlight it
You pull up that that tweet just our the free version of our XRP algo in the last month has generated
$1,800 in cash yield. Just the free version using
$10,000, $1,800 in cash yield. And you end up with more XRP. And you end up with more XRP and $1,800
more dollars just on 10 grand. Okay. If you're in our Tier 1 concierge program and you're using a hundred grand in that algo you're generating $18,000 in cash yield and you end up with more XRP.
That's the point is that the diversity of outcomes associated with what we do.
If you want more cash yield than that you work with one of our staffers and they make
some adjustments on your behalf and say,
okay, yep, here's what it looks like on TradingView over the last year. Is that something you want to do?
Okay, yep, we'll set it for you like that. Now you're getting more cash yield and a little less XRP.
You want more XRP and a little less cash yield? Let's plug that into TradingView as well.
This is what it looked like in the last year. You're comfortable with that. Okay, click, now you're done.
You just check your phone every once in a while
and see what's happening.
That's it.
So good.
Yeah.
I understand why there's haters.
Yeah, I'll bet there's haters.
Man, I'm gonna try it.
It's a-
Try it for free, man.
Try it for free.
Try it for free.
Throw 50 bucks in there and try it.
Yeah.
I turn you into an XRP Maxi.
Yeah.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Get Sailor in there, just flipping ripples.
ArchPublic is taking over the whale experience
at the Bitcoin conference.
So, you know, maybe slow down on the XRP commentary.
Launching our fresh meme coin and XRP algorithms
at the Bitcoin conference on industry day.
You heard it here first.
Going right to the perfect target audience.
Yeah, it's, no, the whale experience this year,
it's in Vegas, it's crazy.
I just spent some time on the whale experience
at the Bitcoin conference website yesterday.
I hadn't looked at it in a while.
Man, it's gonna be something.
It's gonna be-
Just going around like this?
Yeah, it's gonna be-
And I'll know, but it's a whale experience,
but instead of plankton or whatever,
they're just tequila.
Yeah, that's right.
Yeah, I'm gonna be interested to see
how many people from Washington show up because it
is officially mainstream now.
You know, Trump broke that seal last year.
And so I would anticipate David Sacks, I think he's speaking there.
And I think you see Peter Schiff is speaking.
Yeah, I don't get me started on that.
I know I want to be in favor of that, but I'm not.
Even though we're gonna get to boo him on stage
and throw things at him, it's still not gonna be,
listen, he's just the largest troll of all time.
I guess it's fitting to have him at the conference
and have him dance in a jester suit for us
or something like that, but you know, I don't get it.
Gold's putting it on top here, by the way.
Yeah, I mean, that's the reason why he's showing up.
That's it.
This is gold right here, this is the day of the candle.
If we print a candle like that,
that money's going into Bitcoin.
And the other reason that he's showing up is he runs
a fund that's frankly terrible, that's a bond fund,
and he hopes that he can convince some people
at the Bitcoin conference to put a little money in there.
That's it.
Can't have a fund without fun, Andrew.
Yeah, that's right.
Well, the point being is, by the way, we're not gonna-
Peter is fun, though, actually.
I've gone drinking with Peter Schiff.
He is not who you think he is on TV.
Well, he-
That's a good sign.
He's down in Puerto Rico, right?
He is dominating down in Puerto Rico now.
Yeah, he's down in Puerto Rico.
What happens in Dorado stays in Dorado.
I can tell you that, but- I believe old David Bailey's down there in Dorado too, right? Isn't David Bailey down there in Dorado stays in Dorado. I can tell you that, but. I believe David Bailey's down there in Dorado too, right?
Isn't David Bailey down there in Dorado?
David Bailey's in Guaynabo, which is where people with kids
that don't want to pay a premium to play golf live.
But Dorado is a lot of...
Yeah.
Listen, Chef has.
You know what, like Peter, I don't want to put anything on a quote that, you know, lot of yeah chef has
like Peter I don't want to put anything on a quote that you know
but they're having a good time down there
one other thing about the Bitcoin conference
it's not something that we're going to
shout on social media about
something that we can mention
as a point of
interest
we're going to be doing a giveaway associated
with our presence at the whale
and the deep and all that stuff. That's just for whales only and just for the audience
in that room. That giveaway is going to be extraordinary. So if you're going to be attending
the whale experience at the Bitcoin conference, keep your your eyes for what we're doing. Yeah, it's it's it's gonna be really something it. I
don't think there's ever been a better giveaway than this at the
Bitcoin conference. I can't imagine that there ever has
been can't imagine it. So it's gonna be a fun time.
I $500 next RP
public
roadmap to 587.
Dude, it's going there. If you don't believe that one XRP is gonna trade at $587,
I don't even know why you watch this show.
Listen, I'm already, you know what I'm saying,
selling it on the OTC,
that's what I've heard in some countries,
it's already trading at 587 OTC.
So we'll find out if that's true.
Obviously, I heard it on the internet.
So guys, Archpublic.com.
Archpublic.com, you can see it right there.
It's not that hard.
See it?
That's how you spell it.
If you're hard of spelling.
The bridge shows up.
Blow people mind.
I gotta go back and find that comment again.
Yeah.
How's that?
Oh God.
Sorry.
You guys can talk about that.
I'm going to talk about Athena.
Good.
Um, yeah, again, it's free.
Use it for free.
Try it, you know, try it, try it for free and give us feedback.
We love feedback.
We absolutely love feedback.
It's interesting that we're in a position where Arch Public,
if you go take a look, is getting extraordinary,
let's just call it publicity for our customer service.
Our staff is exceptional at getting back with people,
helping people, assisting people very, very quickly.
And I did see a lot of compliments
on the customer service, by the way.
Yeah, you'll find that feedback.
So for us, you know, under promise and over deliver
both on product and performance,
but more importantly on communication and service.
And so, you know, that's one of the opposite
of marriage where you over promise.
All right. What are you talking about? And so, you know, that's one of the things that the opposite of marriage where you over promise. And I'm much better looking now than I was when I got married.
Obviously, exactly.
I'm exactly as advertised.
Listen, the truth of the matter is, is that Bitcoin in the past has been
it's been had a high barrier to entry in my opinion. It's been
difficult. So accumulating it, trading it, using it in exchanges, all of those
things are becoming easier and easier. And one of the things that was really
frustrating for me early in my crypto journey was that I couldn't call anybody.
I couldn't talk to anybody about problems I was having. No one would help
me set up technology. I'd be trying to you about problems I was having. No one would help me set up technology.
I'd be trying to do cold storage wallets
or anything that was kind of innovative in the space.
And it was like there was no customer service department
at all to lean on.
We are really passionate about serving our customers
and we want to help you.
So if you have questions, whether it's things that we have the answer to or not,
we're on your side.
We want to help you find out the answers to those questions.
And so far, so good.
We're pretty good at helping people find those answers.
So come talk to us.
We'd love to help.
Got the logos up there somewhere.
We got the scrolly thing down at the bottom.
Andrew didn't have to yell at me, but I was late on it. To be honest, we've got the website up here. Arch public. You can follow
them on X. You can do all the things, but guys, seriously, man, it's free. Like just, you know,
either try the amount of like insanity around John Deaton talking about this, by the way, on X was,
The amount of like insanity around John Deaton talking about this, by the way, at X was...
Yeah, it was awesome.
Like he's hacked.
Yeah.
It was like, no, he's literally on the show
like talking about it right now.
John has the same thesis that we do
is like everybody should own some
and we should make it as easy to own it as possible
and we should make it as productive owning it as possible.
And that's what we're trying to do.
That's our mission.
Well, now we got to, we just did 56 minutes of this.
And only one Kanye joke.
Right before the show,
I was trying to tell Andrew and Tillman
about the South Park episode with Kanye.
You guys have seen it, right?
I would tell you, we've done this.
I'm gonna tell you, it's the funniest joke of all time
according to South Park.
Do you like fish sticks?
Yes.
Do you like fish sticks in your mouth?
Of course.
So you're a gay fish.
That's the joke that is the premise,
but Kanye doesn't understand it
and spends like 25 minutes of the show doing flow charts.
Like I'm a genius, greatest of all time,
gay fish sticks. And he doesn't get it, but then at the end, great at the ball time, gay fish,
and he doesn't get it. But then at the end, he accepts that he's a gay fish and does a whole music video underwater,
making out with incredible.
I have a saying. Next time next next Tuesday, I'm just playing
the entire episode while we watch. And then we'll tell you
about some algorithms. So good. All right, guys, that's
obviously all we got.
Check out ArchPublic, Tillman, Andrew, thank you so much.
Appreciate you as always,
and we will see all of you people very soon.
Goodbye. Let's go.
