 Whether you believe in the four-year cycle or not, you can't deny that there's a pretty nice narrative coming about, and that is BlackRock, not only with a spot Bitcoin ETF, but also with them coming in and being the number two holder of the top four Bitcoin mining stocks. So we're gonna talk about that. We're also talking about L2 for Ethereum and the ones that are dominating. We'll also take a look at Cardano's World Mobile Token and we're gonna get into a little bit of AI to help me do all that. I brought in a friend, because some days it gets a little bit boring. So I'm gonna bring on a guy you guys may know, Jerry V. Hall. Not to be confused with Mick Jagger's girlfriend, Jerry Hall. Jerry V. Hall has been on quite a bit of times and he's had some pretty great interviews. Of course, myself, jungle, jungle A of Liam Conner, Tom Billew, and also I think he had Raul Paul on a couple of times on his show. So without further ado, Jerry, welcome back to the show. How you doing, buddy? Hey Rob, good to see you. I'm doing really well. I'm really happy to be here with you today. Yeah, man. It's gonna be a good time because there's a lot of stuff to go over. So let's just jump into it and not beat around the bush, which is this piece here. So I know some people like on my show, I have been very critical of the spot ETF, but I said it didn't matter if it gets approved or not because it's the narrative. The narrative is gonna push us forward. Alls we have to do is wait for Jerome Powell to stop raising rates. Maybe at some point he pivots after the economy tanks and then maybe turn on that money printer. But regardless, here's what we got. It looks like BlackRock. Now I am under the impression, I know BlackRock has been a pretty big investor in the say micro strategy for years. So that's nothing new. But for this one, I don't know exactly when they got into these mining operations, but I find it very fascinating that they're really going in so heavy. We had Larry Fink on MSNBC not too long ago saying that the tokenization of assets is the next great frontier and talking about how Bitcoin is great. Now, if you don't know BlackRock, Jerry is at nine or 10 trillion assets in our management, I always forget. I believe they're probably up to around 11. See, there you go. Yeah, they're a beast. And I think the trend that the most important thing to take from this is the age old adage of investing in infrastructure is still very much in play in Wall Street, right? They're investing in what they believe is going to be the foundational elements of these networks going forward. And so owning a piece of how these networks are administered and validated and operated makes a lot of sense when you're talking about a commodity like a digital asset like Bitcoin that has a limited supply. That's a good point. I forgot about that because if we control the underlying mode of operation, I think we can dominate everything around it. Ah, see, Jerry, this is why I bring you on. Well, I mean, think of it like this. OK, so whether it's a proof of state network that requires the tokens itself to secure it or something like Bitcoin proof of work where it requires machines and electricity to operate it with the software, the issuance of the underlying asset, you're at the spigot. You're literally at the spigot. So that's an advantageous place to be. That is. And you know what? Maybe it's a little too advantageous. Take this out. This is from Doreen. 51% mining and BlackRock owns Bitcoin decisions. Forks Bitcoin tries, perhaps, successfully to destroy Bitcoin. This has been an ongoing topic. Some people have debunked it, but it still kind of goes around. Do you think this could actually happen, Jerry? Because in their prospectus, they did talk about the chain of Bitcoin moving forward. And of course, some people are worried that they'll fork and do whatever. I think that would be a huge mistake if they try to say, well, we're going to make it unlimited supply. That's the whole big thing. But if you see any kind of value. All right. There's two issues, right, the forking. Forking can happen. Yes, it can. However, it's two of them. Exactly. OK, so go ahead, fork. We also have to remember that the mining companies are heavily invested in by BlackRock, but not owned by it. Not owned by it. And unless they do become owned by a centralized entity, I'm not that concerned. Because there is enough, quote, unquote, decentralization that we should survive it. Yeah, I think I have to agree. Because I remember, because we've been around long enough, remember in 2017 or so when Bitcoin Cash came around, everybody hated Roger Vier, hated his guts. I mean, now we don't really talk too much about it. And of course, Bitcoin Cash, I mean, it's still in the top 50. Then of course, Craig Wright came out, Bitcoin SV. I don't know what's going on with that. I'm sure there's somebody in the comment section will tell me, I can guarantee that. But if you fork it and try to go that way, will you have global domination of something? I think it'd be very difficult, especially with how decentralized the aspect is and what people believe it actually to be and the value that actually derives from it. So maybe I'm wrong here, but I think it's still a pretty good play. And lastly, before we move on, I still think that the narrative's going to push us forward. It doesn't matter if this gets approved or not approved. If you got the biggest asset manager in the world saying we give our stamp of approval with this and also so does Fidelity and also so does ARK Investments and also so does the White House who has been talking about him, I hate it. It gives it legitimacy because at least you're talking about it and you put it in the spotlight. Where am I wrong, Jerry? Well, you're not wrong, but I don't think it's a fully formed picture, right? So credibility is important. It really is. It's really important. It helps create confidence, right? And confidence whenever we're dealing with speculation is important, right? I mean, it helps. The real value of an ETF, especially by BlackRock is an automatic empty bucket that needs to be filled and it needs to be filled with actual Bitcoin and that actual Bitcoin can only be acquired from two sources, A, the spigot that we just talked about from the mining industry and the existing circulating supply that we, we, you and I, you know, are holding. And so that I don't think should ever be underestimated. The sheer volume of Bitcoin necessary to fill a BlackRock ETF because the demand is there. The demand is there. That's been proven. That is true. Even though like, yeah, the demand is there because I don't think they would go through with this if they didn't see a demand. I don't think they're in the game to lose. They don't have a born to lose tattoo on Larry Fink's forehead. So I'm just guessing. Yeah, all right. So that makes sense. I can see that. So that's the piece right there. Again, I think things are in the moving in the right direction. There's a couple of good questions that we'll get to at the end, which talks about what do you think's gonna happen at the end of this month, moving into September. And, you know, maybe we'll do a little price predictions at the Jerry, who knows? But before we do that, let's go on to the second largest crypto by market cap Ethereum and the L2s that are surrounding it. I just find this fascinating that's L2s are coming out and how much value is being locked up. So this was an article a couple of days ago which talks about base. So just real quick, base was introduced on Ethereum mainnet about two weeks ago. Base, if you don't aren't familiar with it, that is the layer, the L2 layer that was put out by Coinbase. And before anybody asks, no, you cannot buy it. So there is no token. This is being used by Coinbase as a purely revenue plan. It's actually working out pretty well. On the day of its launch, the network reported over 150 million in total value bridged over. And that's gone from 150 to 261 million. And actually, if we take a look at, this is a great website, I linked it in the comments or the comments in the description section. And you can see just how much is actually locked up. So we went from 140 to 250, now we're at 200. But still it's number five, 242 million is actually locked up on base. This website is called L2beat. And just real quick, I have no affiliation with them. I just use their free data. So, created by transparent variable insights. What's the difference between L2beat and DeFi Pulse? DeFi, Lama and all that stuff. They focus primarily on tracking TVL. L2 will track only L2 projects. And then this is the big one. And when you're looking at Anche data, just be aware that data can be kind of manipulated by what you're gonna talk about. L2beat and DeFi Lama use different methodologies. L2beat accounts for all assets locked in Ethereum contracts, including L2 native governance tokens like arbitra and optimism. And DeFi Lama just focuses on assets engaged in DAPs on specific networks. So it's not an ADAP, it's not really gonna be recorded. So just so everybody knows, that's the difference here. Anyhow, to finish up. Oh, more than a hundred DAPs were integrated with base at launch. So I'm sure DeFi Lama is gonna show that in an attempt to take advantage of the early hype. And this is what I find fascinating because as you build a new L2, there's other layers that are gonna be able to use that. And of course, if you own those layers, like Jerry was just talking about, picks and shovels, you can see some pretty good price appreciation. Chainlink was brought in as a partner to provide price feeds for the new layer two. And Dezenwald's been integrated. Coinbase wallet, rainbow, trust wallet and so on and so forth. And the other ones that have been coming in is one inch, friend.tech, Arkham intelligence. So Jerry, just the overall view, what do you think about base? Do you think they'll ever come out with a token? And do you think this is, well, you think this is good for crypto? Well, I think the last two years, right? And I think it really the conversation in this silo where this path needs to start with polygon, right? Right. Yeah, keep going. So my point is, we've had two years where it's iteration of iteration of iteration, building on something that is obviously flawed. There would not be two years of massive building and innovation for layer twos if the layer one was good. True. Ethereum is broken. I love Ethereum. I love what it brought the world, right? It brought the world smart contracts. Yeah. That is a wonderful thing. We can do so many things with smart contracts. However, Ethereum is just not working. And it seems like, this is my prediction. It seems like we're gonna get to a piece of technology that circumvents having to put band-aids on Ethereum because it just works right from the beginning. I think so. I mean, I think in the long term, we'll probably get something better. It's just like when we had internet service in the very beginning. Remember internet service? Like you'd get like, and you'd have to do like, well, let me get that CD from AOL. Get that CD from AOL. And they try to jumble things around and make band-aids. It just didn't work out. And all of a sudden when broadband and other companies came in and service providers and it worked out much better. So I think with Ethereum, it could work with these L2s, CK roll-ups, optimistic roll-ups, all those things. But the question is, is someone gonna come out with something better? And there's always talk about the, an ETH killer. Solana's an ETH killer, Polkadot's an ETH killer, all those things, right? So we'll see if it works out. And then just to get to your point about polygon, I like to talk about polygon because I own a boatload of it and I'm super biased on this channel. But over on L2B, it asks, why is polygon not included in your stats? And they say we define L2 as a chain that fully or partially derives its security from L1 Ethereum. So I usually don't have to rely on the honesty of L2 validators. This is aligned with the current view of Ethereum in layer two. And they say, but isn't polygon a plasma, a roll-up, and a side chain all in one? They said, no. And its current implementation is a proof of stake side chain with validators solely responsible for validating polygon transactions. We are only interested in what implemented and can be independently verified when their architecture changes will be more than happy to include them. So it was a little bit of cracks in what people believe as far as polygon. I will tell you this, there's another website, I'll bring it up right now. Well, they're saying it's ether scan or nothing, baby. Yeah, yeah, exactly. There's another website everybody can check out called CryptoSlam. I've talked about this a couple of times. And it's, you can take a look at blockchains by NFT sales volume. I just found it fascinating that you had this wash percentage, wash trading, just going back and forth and back and forth, right? And you can see that, let's, you know, you can't sort it, but Ethereum, sales for NFTs, and this I think is over seven days. You got 5.9, wash trading is 2.5. Here's the total, here's the wash percentage. The next one is Solana. The wash is nothing, it's less than a percentage point. Mythos and polygon, 39.18%. And not that wash trading is awful for NFT sales. I'm just letting everybody know that, hey, even though you got this great stat that there's so many, you know, on-chain users and all these things that are going on, just remember that there's data in the background. Again, on-chain data can be a little bit funny sometimes. Anyhow, Jerry, what do you think? You know, again, I'm back to the, I don't get too excited about building on crummy foundations. Yeah. You know what I mean? And this is what would change my mind because you should always be open with new information to change your opinion. True. And that is if an application that I find valuable reaches a billion people and I'm able to use it and it's built on one of those things, I'm gonna be glad I have some of that stuff that I was an investor in some of those things. Right. Well, you've all been investors there. Well, moving on from crypto to, I wish I still had this, I used to have this great app, it was called, it was a clown filter and I could have a clown. I remember that. Yeah, I just, of course, Snapchat took it away. So sorry about that, everybody. But let's not pile on, but here's a pretty good story. I think this is a story that's gonna protect everybody. I think we shall be doing this. The DEA, I'm not gonna pile on a DEA. They made a mistake. We all make mistakes, right? But they mistakenly sent 55,000 to crypto scammer and airdrop blunder. And the reason I bring this up is I'm gonna show you how they did this and how easy it is to get around it. And I told Jerry, I'm like, Jerry, we should start doing this. Just start spoofing people and just ripping people off left and right. But he didn't wanna do it. Here's the take. DEA fell victim to a sophisticated airdrop scam. It's not sophisticated. It's super simple. And this is interesting. So they sent 55,000 stable coins to the scammers. Then they reached out to Tether and said, hey, freeze those funds. But the scammers already moved it from their wallet to another wallet to another wallet. And they put the Tether into something else, apparently. So just so you know, all stable coins, unless I'm wrong, most, if not all, they can all be halted. They can all be frozen and they can all be reversed. So just so everybody knows, if you think like, oh, it's decentralized and it's awesome. Not really. So here's what happened. The DEA sees more than a half a million dollars worth of stable coins in May, connected to two Binance accounts who were, they were being used for illegal narcotics transactions. The funds were stored in a DEA controlled Trasor hardware wallet that is secured for sale. That's interesting that they, that the DEA trusts Trasor. Maybe we should take, maybe I should do a deep dive in the Trasor, I guess. However, a scammer, observing the DEA's blockchain activities mimicked a test transaction the DEA had made to the US Marshall service. That's the beauty about on-chain analysis. You can, it's all there for everything. Which would go to my next point, which is this, if you are a terrorist or you are a drug organization for the cartels, don't use crypto. I mean, it's just everything's on chain. And it's a ridiculous idea. Anyhow, by creating a crypto address, the scammers that closely resemble the Marshall's accounts, matching the first five and the last four characters, the scammer tricked the DEA into transferring a significant sum of the wrong address. Here's what they did it. The scammer used a method known as air dropping. They sent a small amount of tether to the DEA's wallet so it matched the test transaction amount. The fraudster hoped the DEA would simply copy the fraudulent address, mistaking it for the Marshall's address and they did. So this is how it goes. You have a tether address, whatever it starts with, 7532, right? And then we always do this. We always look at the first couple, two or three or four and then the last two or three or four and like, yeah, that's about good. So these guys sent them a small test transaction of like 0.002 tether. And they looked at that and go, oh, that's the Marshall's address. And they hit me at the button and they send them $50,000 and now it's gone. So everybody, I have the same problem. I do the same thing. Even on my videos, I'm like, okay, the first two and last three looks about good. But scammers can do those that, where they send you a test transaction. You look at a test transaction and go, oh, that's, I trust that one. And then of course you send it on. Jerry, what do you think, man? I think you need to have your head on a swivel, right? You definitely need to have your head on a swivel. And one of the things that I love about your channel is always right there on the screen all the time. Everybody's trying to scram you. Don't trust exchanges. Don't use leverage and take profits. Yes. Well, I learned this the hard way. I, we all, everybody learned this the hard way. And this is the reason why I like talking to everybody now because this is before all the tourists come, right? When the tourists come, which is your family, your friends and family, those are the tourists. We have to be there to be the shepherds, to make sure that the sheep don't fall to the wrong things. And we get to teach them all these things. And they're going to look at you like you are the dumbest person in the world. When you tell them, you can't leave on exchange. You've got to take it off. Everything to scam and tell them otherwise. You really need to take profits. You think it's going to go up forever? It's not going to go up forever. You're going to tell them, they're not going to listen to you because they want to learn the hard way and you just got to let them. But it's up to us to really do the heavy lifting like this is what you got to do because we've already screwed up. So I think it's great advice. And so that's where I'm at with that. You know, we just need to be careful. Be careful. And we learn new things like I didn't know they could do that. Now we do. So I think, Jerry, here's another question. Do you ever get like random NFTs in your wallets? Oh, geez, you know, it's gotten so crazy that like for instance on any platform, it doesn't matter if it's Facebook or Twitter or what have you in my email. If it doesn't have the check that my system verified you because you and I have exchanged that or the other thing, I just, I don't want any part of it. Yeah, and you know what? Sometimes there are airdrops. They really are legit airdrops, but- Absolutely, I'm not playing though. I'm done with that. Yeah, it's not how much you make. It's how much you keep, right? Yeah, so this will leave me to the next story. This is from Dave. Personally, I'll be DCing Cardano between 16 and 6 cents with heavier deposits, lower goes. This could help you out to determine why you'd want to do that. There's this project. I talked about it quite a bit. I think it's one of the few with utility, World Mobile. And as of, I want to say three days ago, could be four, correct me in the comments, but they just launched their app, which is on, it's only on the Android Play Store. It's coming to Apple iOS. And what it's going to allow people to do, it's not banking the unbanked, it's connecting the unconnected. And I'll get into the whole thing with that. So I just want to say like, first of all, I own World Mobile. I think everybody should know I don't talk about things I don't own for the most part. And I'm also a note operator, an earth note operator. I think it's just cool because it has the wallet out there. You're able to pay for connection service. And that's, that could be cell phone service. And that could also be telecommunications and internet service. And they got a lot of ad credits was the other thing. Oh, see like this right here, scanning. You can scan different parts to notify them when there's like a lag and you can earn points. They've got things that are already deposited in the app itself. So if you want to buy stuff, this is the same thing. And this is all built on Cardano. So there is a video, I think I'll link in the comment section, but you can see here, once you download the app and you pay for service, and of course everything comes to you in rewards as far as Cardano. This will be in your network also. Here's the features of the app itself. The wallet itself, single address non-custodial, light wallet dedicated to tokens, built in the Cardano blockchain. Managed digital assets such as NFTs and then Cardano native tokens, like World Mobile Token. Is it gonna be a Fiat on-ramp? Transition from traditional currencies to cryptos. So wherever you're at, at some point you'll be able to say, okay, here's my Euro. I'll be able to pay for whatever I want to and just swap out. If you want to do crypto and then do trading, I believe in the app itself. You can scan for points thing I just told you about. Identify connectivity weak spots across the globe and rewards for doing so. Network, you get data bundles and not like 3G, like 4G LTE, like actually fast stuff. Not the stuff that you don't really want to use. Mobile money, facilitate the transactions in a marketplace. I just showed you a range of products you can buy Netflix and Binance vouchers. So that's the piece right there. There's something that you may notice here. In Tanzania, USA, UK, Canada, Australia, the Cardano wallets available. Fiat on-ramps available. Network service is only available in Tanzania. What happened to USA, UK, and Canada, and Australia? It's not out yet. However, that just happened. Now this one is, what's the date today, Jerry? 25th? 27th. 27th, this was two days ago. World Mobile is launching in the USA. So you'll be able to use that. Now that's not, it's not, it's launching in the USA. They have a date, it's in 2024. But they are saying that this is when we're actually launching. And just so you know, World Mobile token, the token itself, it topped out 16th of February 2022, which was when everything was kind of going down the tubes anyhow, after November 2021. And it topped out a 93 cents a pop. Now it's all the way down to 10 cents. So maybe this might something to look into. And then also, I think this is the bigger thing. They just had a partnership announcement with AI service or company Singularity.net. And what's that gonna do? Well, two things, customer support. They're gonna streamline customer service interactions and elevate the user experience. I don't know if you guys have ever done that yet with AI and their customer service. Like AI can make a bot and AI bot and talk to you like it's a real person. And it's not steady and perfect yet, but I've done that with my, I forgot which company it was, but it sounded pretty good, but there's still some glitches. So they're gonna do that to, it's kind of like honestly, it's kind of offloading some of their load as far as employees. And then also, they're gonna do blockchain based loans and AI powered credit ratings lending solutions. So think about all the people that are, I don't know where I put it. It goes like this. The World Bank says that there are roughly 3.7 billion people in the world that are unconnected, even though we have cellular service telecommunications all throughout the world. Even in America, there's places that you cannot get the service. So this is what they're trying to say, okay, well, we can do this because even in third world countries, the majority of people still have or do have a smartphone. So we have something like this. Think about the places in Tanzania. Think of places like in Africa. Think of the places like in the Middle East in certain places, not like Abu Dhabi, they're fine. But wouldn't it be great to do something like this with AI powered? The collaboration introduces AI powered credit ratings because you're not gonna get that if you don't have a bank, right? So it's a pivotal element of lending concept that adapts the user's payment history and reputation. So the more that you pay off your loans, the more it builds up, powered by AI and singularity. The first phase targets world mobile's existing user base offering credit for contract extensions once the prepay term concludes. Second phase extends credit offerings to establish customer with positive payment. A program scope expands to include individual worldwide who have been unserved by traditional financial institutions. Ah, here's where I was wrong. According to World Bank, there are approximately 1.4 billion adults globally do not have access to banking service. Two thirds of those unbanked population on a mobile phone, which can enable them to access financial services. And again, also in America, that's why they're launching here because it's places that you would not get service. So they're partnering up with singularity. Singularity, this is where we get into the AI play, also launched Hypercycle. Hypercycle, I'm gonna link this in the description and you can check it out. But Jerry, you're involved with Hypercycle. How does this all work? Because with AI it gets kind of tricky. I know that's a big narrative, but if we're gonna overlap AI with blockchain technology, how does this all work together? Okay, here we go. Let's kind of start with kind of a generalization. So for the last 25 years, human beings have been developing and using software to do things better, stronger, faster, right? 25, 30 years ago, a lot of accountants used a tremendous amount of pens, paper, and calculators. And then some cool developer created some software where that accountant could do five times more with a spreadsheet. Okay, yeah. Software created productivity, right? And innovation. All right. Well, we're getting to the place now where software is starting to be able to create other software. AI is creating software, which is advancement. So one of the things that SingularityNet has been really good about, I think it's really important to when we think about these entities, think about the teams, and also how would we frame it? So think of like AWS and Microsoft and Google as huge corporations where their stuff is siloed and the only people that are gonna truly profit from their technology and their innovation are gonna be the executives and the shareholders of that company. Right? Not you and me necessarily. Not you and me. However, just like we talked about with the miners, picks and shovels and being a part of the infrastructure of new systems, whether they be completely decentralized or just distributed or what have you, has a much lower barrier to entries. Guys like you and me can in an afternoon get an investment in one of these elements. Okay, so that I needed to kind of put that out there. SingularityNet is run by Dr. Ben Gortzel. Dr. Ben Gortzel is the guy that most famously is behind Sophia the robot. Sophia the robot's been on television. I mean, she's really kind of cool. That was a joint venture, a project between Hanson Robotics out of Korea and Ben Gortzel's team SingularityNet. Okay. They have spun off a lot of other companies, right? You'll see Chu AGI there. You see, you just went to Sophia Dow. There's a Singularity Dow, which is actually using artificial intelligence to use the same type of trading method, ology that they use on Wall Street for guys like you and me. So you and I can go to this site and buy into a invest in a 30, a three month cycle and allow the AI to do the training trading for us. Right now they're only offering Bitcoin and Ethereum. So that's one element of the AI. Then you've got, and you've got AGIX, the token for SingularityNet not only is the mother company for a lot of these things, but it's also going to be producing the quote unquote open source marketplace that when digital asset news, the YouTube channel wants to contract an AI avatar of Rob to scan the internet for the best, biased information that Rob likes and the AI avatar presents the biased information that Rob likes on Rob's YouTube channel. You'll be able to get that AI from SingularityNet marketplace, right? What's Hypercycle? Hypercycle is an actual machine to machine network where I can be the human being, I can buy tokens, which are the identity and currency I can buy a license, which gives me the proprietary right and I can secure the hardware to have AI modules put into my nodes and my nodes can contract work. So maybe I have the Dan YouTube AI searching and scouring the internet for the coolest, you know, the coolest stuff that I want to present on my YouTube channel and it's taking into account the time of day that you like to do it and all your biases and all that stuff. That's one element. The other element is maybe, maybe you're a medical researcher, right? You're a medical researcher and you need just a ton of computation, right? A ton of computation, right? A ton of computation. Well, what are your options? Your options are AWS, Google, Microsoft Azure, et cetera. These are big expensive companies that have used data centers. Well, what if software is now available where Jerry can turn his Mac into a node in crunch numbers or I can buy a dedicated machine or I can do little jobs for somebody on my phone and I can do everything in between. So I can have a huge data center with billions of dollars of equipment on this network or down to one guy with one phone. How much value does a global network, right, bring relative to a siloed corporation? That's really the play with hypercycle. So that's like, so you can use the computational power of my computer and you're gonna pay me and then the payment for you to use my sweet, sweet, sweet Mac masterful computer is there's some kind of like, is it a token or? There, it's multi, it could be anything because, okay. Again, back to kind of frame of references. You and I grew up in a blockchain world where let's face it, if it's not on chain, it's not a transaction that happened yet. Yeah. All right. And that sparked this entire, we got to do transaction per seconds and Bitcoin slow at six and Solano super fast at thousands. Okay, all, okay, great. All that's wonderful. This total IP and what we're working with in hypercycle is really not a layer one, it's a layer zero. We're below the base layer. We're at a transactional layer where we can do ungodly amounts of transactions. Before we ever need to record on a ledger. Oh, I see. So it's like, like we, like just like we're talking about like, like the L2s we do a roll up. So they do all these transactions, hundreds, thousands of transactions and then they put it on the blockchain in a big grouping and that's the one transaction. Damn. It's, it's, you can generalize it like that. Although it's not like that. See, okay. There's a premise that we built this business is being built on and that is we believe by 2026 that 90% of all internet transactions will be machine to machine. Now, right now, currently, how do machines pay other machines? Don't we have to execute that? That's the point. You don't need to, you don't need to when you're deep, when your node has the smart contract in it, the smart contract is not on a layer one. And that's the big distinction, right? And we don't need to get into the weeks with the technology. I think it's super important to understand is that what we're starting to see with projects like World Mobile Token, which is on the Cardano network, projects like a Cosh, which is on, which is a, it's own standalone layer one blockchain, but it's in the Cosmos ecosystem. You're starting to see a Jackal is in the Cosmos ecosystem. Hypercycle is its own thing, but it's actually ledgered on a side chain of Cardano. And underneath this singularity, that kind of umbrella of incredible AI companies. What we're seeing is the ability for guys like you and me to start our own businesses, and we can scale it to however we want, right? Let's say I, my barrier to entry is my money, but I do have the phone, right? Well, I get a one token license and I run it on my phone. And it contracts and does work because remember it's machine to machine. You and I are not involved. We might've been involved once when the original algorithm to crunch the 25,000 different ways that we should ingest vitamin C for the purpose of being antiviral. You know, how many, it's just data crunching, right? That is the next big thing. I believe computation is the commodity that is going to drive innovation and productivity and value for the next 100 years. And what is computation? It's electricity, married with hardware and running software. So electricity, running hardware that is running software producing value. Well, hypercycle ticks all those boxes. Yes. And that's to bring it all home. It goes like this. So we talked about a lot, right? We talked about Cardano's World Mobile token. World Mobile, World Mobile and Singularity Net have a partnership. Singularity created hypercycle, have a partnership with them. Hypercycle, I linked that in the description so you could figure it out and do your own research and check what's going on. And also as a reminder, it's all comes to the circle. Cardano is, I believe they have some type of partnership. CardanolinkSingularity.net or AGIX is up 7%. This is on July 13th. So it's kind of like a big circle. World Mobile's on Cardano. Well, you know what? I don't know if it's really a circle. You know what's interesting? The smartest guys. The smartest guys tend to coalesce, right? Like our CEO, Toofy. Toofy has been interacting and collaborating with Ben Gortzel for years. Toofy is our CEO, Toofy Saliba. He authored the paper, the total protocol with another gentleman named Dan, right? And this is revolutionary because it's that whole transactions happening and valid and verifiable and authenticatable without a ledger. Yeah. Which is that whole Blair's zero stuff, right? Then you got Ben Gortzel. 30 plus years PhD, world-class open source AI scientist. Charles Hoskins, a brilliant guy. You may not like Charles. Heck of a marketer. I'll tell you that. You cannot deny his intellect, right? Yes, Mark. People are working together to create value added stuff. And you and I, and every one of your listeners are able to, well, participate. Where you and I cannot participate with Google, Amazon or Microsoft unless we own their stock. But even when we own their stock, we're not getting a lion's share of the profit. We're not. No. And you know what? That would lead me to like our last point and then we'll do a little Q&A, which is yesterday we did a video. And the reason that the video came out is I asked a question. I said, if you can invest and ripple the company before it went public, would you? And this is like for every company actually, for Encrypto. I said, let me be clear. I'm talking about the company even though I own XRP. And we had 600 or so votes and the majority of people said yes. I would as an investor. I would. Let me update this. Okay, sorry. We had 2,400 votes and 45% said yes. And then 40% tell me more. So we actually did a video yesterday. It was about link two. And I talked about how link two is you're able to to get into these companies pre IPO. And there's AI stuff. Cerebros, H2AI, all this stuff, SnapLogic. These guys, and of course there's digital assets which would be ripple, polysine, circle, upholds, high trust, copper. But one of the things that people complained about rightfully so, and we talked about this, is that it's only for accredited investors here in the US. Now outside of the US is different. We don't have those crazy accredited investors. I mean, not other places do. And there's different criteria. I understand it's a big problem. But just like what Jerry said is like, we can invest in this stuff and really get back. But I've been talking to these other guys out of Switzerland called Arcton. And one of the founders is a securities lawyer. And over there in Switzerland, you're able to buy into companies pre IPO and invest in that way. But it's all digitalized. And it's like what Larry Fink was talking about, putting things on a blockchain secured or for the securities to be digitized put on a blockchain. Yeah. Now, this is of course, if you're in America, you're still screwed. Sorry, this is how it goes. But for everybody else out there, I will do a video on these guys, but I think it's for everybody. And I'm not, and here's how to say this before we get in the Q and A. I am not gonna tell you, you should never use a VPN to get into something like that. You should never ever do that. Other places, they can get into those things and get into things before as a private investor. But I will cover that later. I understand people's frustrations with the credit investor. And then remember, that's the good old government doing that. But that's it for today.
