 Well, Mr. Lassett News, my name is Rob, and today just like the thumbnail and title suggests, we have to take a real hard look as to what is performing and what is vastly unperforming in the crypto market. What I'm talking about today is I took a look at just how things were going in the top 20 for different cryptos. And I wanted just to take a look at because I do a lot of value investing. I tend to focus a lot on the top 20. I tend to see which ones are doing pretty well. The question I had this morning was, well, which ones are performing the best in the top 20? And since we hear all the time about Bitcoin, a lot of us, I mean, if you're not checking the charts every day and taking a look at the different price action, you probably just think that Bitcoin's doing the best. Well, it's not. And I just took a look at these top ones and this is what I found out. So with Bitcoin, today, again, it is February 11th, wow, 2023. And we've had a little bit of a tumble, especially with a friend of the show, Gary Gensler. I know you watch this. I know you watch Gary. And he came out and talked about staking and shutting things down and spooked a lot of people, which I thought was ridiculous, but whatever, here we are. So Bitcoin took a little tumble at 21.7. And I just wanted to take a look at what I'm really going to focus on is this, this part right here, the all-time highs. The all-time high from what Bitcoin was at was roughly $69,000 on November 10th. And it dropped negative 68%. Now, when we go forward, I'm not saying that Bitcoin will be the big loser or nothing will overtake. I'm just saying, at this point, we're taking a snapshot. I'm not looking at 30 days or 60 days or 90 days. I'm just taking a look at the all-time highs to how things have fallen and which one has done better. And it ain't Bitcoin. And actually, Ethereum is doing pretty good. I mean, it's at 68%. 68.8%, which is roughly the same as Bitcoin. So 68.5, negative 68.8%. So really, not too bad. Now, we take a look at Binance Coin. I don't have, well, I have, no, that's not true. I have very little of BNB. I don't dollar-cost average it. I don't invest into it. And I was taking a look at it. And what Binance is doing is all they had to do is just show up and not fail, essentially. That's what everybody else, all the exchanges are doing. And because of that, their token is actually down negative 54.9. So what does say 55% from its all-time high, which is in May 10th, which is pretty darn good compared to Bitcoin and Ethereum. But how does it stack up against everything else? Well, XRP, which I think will rise up magnificently as soon as it beats the SEC, is down almost negative 89%. That's quite a drop. Cardano, another big one of the losers that are going that I presently dollar-cost average. Negative 88.3%, not too great. Dogecoin, how bad is that? Negative 88.7%. Polygon, now this one's interesting. And it's interesting because surprise, I own it. And I'm going to get more biased towards this one. So unfortunately, or fortunately for me, this is only down negative 57.3%. So not as good as Binance at 55%. But I mean, look, that's pretty darn good as far as how things are going. Now remember, I have always said, pay attention to the cryptos that are doing well in the bear because they will crush it in the bull. And there are a lot of high-profile connections that Polygon is doing. I mean, they just got picked up by Disney. They just got picked up by Nike. They're working with Starbucks for their NFT platform. And then they power a lot of the blockchain games out there. Gensokishi being one of them and a couple different ones that we've talked about before. And the reason is, is because the fees are low and they just upgraded to lower those fees even more. Now it's not super duper cheap. But I got to tell you, for what it is, I think it hits kind of a sweet spot. Now, of course, there are other cryptos that are much cheaper than Polygon. But it's like Polygon and Ethereum because Polygon is a side chain of Ethereum. It seems to kind of be a nice synergistic effect. And I'm glad that I'm dollar-cost after this one. So really if you take a look at it, these are the top two Binance coin and Polygon. But let's see how the other ones are faring as far as all-time high. Solana is the worst on this list as far as in the top 20. They're down negative 92%. If it wasn't for that rally, they were down like 97% for the year. Shiba Inu, I know some people love it. But hey, they're better than my Cardano. Negative 85%. Polkadot, negative 88%, almost 89%. Another big tumble. Litecoin, doing pretty good. But it's having coming up, negative 77%. Tron, something that I don't talk about too much, which maybe I should talk about. Only negative 72%. Avalanche, negative 87%, almost 88%. And Uniswap to round it all out at negative 85%. Those are some pretty big numbers. So again, I'm not saying that Bitcoin is going to always be down so much. It's got some pretty good utility. There's some things going on. But again, I'm just showing you the things that are outperforming all the others in the top 20. We can cherry pick and go down that list, negative 30, 40, 50, but not really too much is doing that great. Let me let you think about that in the comments section. But again, I would take a look at those and maybe do a little more research on them. So that is that. And then there are some things that concern me. In the next little segue, it's about Tether. And look, the thing with Tether is I never really trusted it. I never did. I know some people love it and they use it all the time. I just never trusted Tether. And if this is true and there's some things that came out, we're in for a world of hurt. So Tether's attempt to block CoinDesk requests for stable Coin Reserve records is dismissed by a New York court. This is all it is. There's nothing going on right now. But it is interesting. In June 2021, CoinDesk filed a FOIL, a freedom of information law. It's a request for some of the documents from the inquiry from the New York Attorney General, specifically asking for documents about Tether's reserves. That's all it's asking. Like, look, just show us your reserves. We just want to see what it is. And Tether's like, no, we're not going to do it. And they fought him in court since June 2021. Well, that just got lifted. And this is from the judge and this is the Supreme Court. Judge from New York says that Tether did not prove it would suffer a substantive competitive injury that would meet the FOIL rules parameters. We review materials submitted by the crypto companies and found absolutely no items that could be described as unpredictable or proprietary. Again, this is CoinDesk. You know what else CoinDesk did as they revealed different things? They also revealed FTX and their problem with proof of reserves. And the insolvency rumors and all the things that happened on November 7th, 2022. Now, I'm not saying that this is going to come down and Tether is going to be proven. I'm just saying it's quite interesting the timing and the things that are going on, just how hard Tether's been fighting to not show any proof of reserves, even though, yes, they did have an audit from a Bahaman company. But we know how good those are. Anyhow, let me just think about that in the comment section. To finish this up, we'll talk a little good news, which is Ethereum is coming out with their Shanghai hard fork and it looks like they're moving forward. I thought they were going to delay it, but no. So this is going to happen on February 28th. This is the test net. And of course, with a Shanghai protocol update will do, it will allow people who have staked their Ethereum to un-stake it and collect those sweet rewards. So a lot of people are saying this is going to be the apocalypse and people are going to sell a lot of Ethereum. Some people say, no, they're already in this one and they staked it without knowing when they could un-stake it. So they're pretty much big believers. I personally couldn't care less. If everything falls down to the ground, that's fantastic because I have my Delacost average that goes on every day. I Delacost average three different cryptos every single day. And that's Bitcoin, Ethereum and Polygon. And then the other ones that I Delacost average are, I mean, we talked about this before, Polygon and Neer and Cardano and much different layer of ones and well, Polkadot and Chainlink. And some other ones that I won't disclose right now, but look, I think that's positive and we're in the right direction. So that's a little bit of good news for the day. And then lastly, I just want to give a shout out to EpicArt. They were part of our sweat coin January challenge. We had a lot of people, 30 winners. And three of those winners got their pieces of EpicArt, which is just crypto art that's going to be shipped to them. So there's one of the pieces that was chosen. It's very nice. I like that one. I like this one, a little Bitcoin in the background. And just so you know, there's going to be a link in the description. If you use Dan, I think you get 20% off. And they've got a bunch of different crypto specific artwork you can hang on the wall. And what's cool about that, well, first of all, here's the one I'm going to buy, Voyager. I'm going to tell you why in a second. So if you go there, I mean, all of them have different sizes. You got 12 by 12, 24 by 24, 36 by 36. But wouldn't that look sweet above your sofa or wherever you're at? So yeah, I'm probably going to buy this one. I'm going to tell you why I'm going to buy this one. It's because it's a constant reminder to me. Hopefully they have a Celsius one too. It'll be a constant reminder to me that all the things that we think we know and we're so sure of that sometimes we just don't get it right. We need to be a lot more careful and do a little more due diligence. That'll be my constant reminder. And that is it. And then lastly, to bring this up, if you are in Puerto Rico area, I will be doing a shelter dog walk at 8 o'clock tomorrow, Sunday morning at Amigos de los Animales. So we walk the dogs from 8 o'clock in the morning to about 9. They get out there. All shelter dogs are all cooped up. And of course, we get to walk down the boardwalk. It's very beautiful, very nice. Go on the beach. It's great. Dogs really appreciate it. I really appreciate it. And then I treat everybody. I take everybody out to breakfast afterwards. So if you can make that, let me know. There's a link in the description. You can find that information. And that is it for today. So look, that's all we have for Saturday. Hopefully you enjoyed the weekend. If you liked today's video, give it a thumbs up. Also consider subscribing. A lot of things we talk about are time sensitive, especially like that tether story. That's it for today. So thanks so much for stopping by. I appreciate it. And I'll see you on the next one.
