 If you wanna stick around, we're gonna go over the Q&A. We'll answer all your burning questions, the best of my abilities, and we will go from there. If not, Adios, thank you so much. I do appreciate it. Let's get to it. Q&A, ah, that's my favorite part of the day. All right, all right, all right, all right, all right. Beardy. Who wants a wrench? Who wants to be a moderator? Play king of the shill. No, I can't do it. You know, we had this discussion about what a shill essentially is. And if you think about it, right, there's two ways to look at who's a shill, which is, do people get paid and they'd have no interest in the company or whatever else, and they dump on their community? That would be a shill to me. Or is a shill somebody who believes in a project, has financial interest into it, wants it to do well, and talks about it a lot. If that's the case, I'm a total shill because I talk about Bitcoin every single video, do I not? Because I own it and I want it to do well. I talk about Ethereum, because I want it to do well. Talk about Cardonax, I want it to do well. Solana, and Mir, and Polkadot, and all those things. I own all those things and I want to do well. I am super biased, you have to understand. I don't talk about stuff I don't own. And that's it. So really if you think about it, that's just how I see it. And some people can say there's a difference between a shill and a basseter, but yeah, semantics, I guess. Shaolin, hey, hello from Kyrgyzstan. Nailed it. Can't catch every live show and we'll do the time difference and I'm happy to catch a day show. Well, thanks for showing, man, I appreciate it. That's awesome. My sharp ratio is... Thank you, Ricky. I don't know, games play. So I don't know, we took a look and it seems like these numbers are... The last one was unemployment numbers. We thought that for sure unemployment would go up and it went down. And I think, and if you just take a look at it, so the unemployment numbers, they want them to, they want more people, the Fed wants more people to be unemployed. I know it sounds weird, but they want more people to be unemployed so they can drop the demand, which I don't really think is the right way to do it or whatever. So as the unemployment rate goes up, that's good for us, but it actually went down, meaning more people have jobs, more people have income. And of course that would lead to demand. So there's that part. And then we take a look at core inflation, that's going the wrong way too. I mean, as far as expectations and there's another one that just came out. I forgot the name of it, COE. And that actually went up. So inflation's, so these rate hikes aren't working as much as they thought it was. The question that I have is, if the guests on CPI, I can't give you a guess, but if they're looking at, there's a difference between CPI or core CPI. They're looking at core CPI, of course that's energy, that's taking out energy and food and going from there. And I think that's what they were gonna look at a little bit more, more so than just basic CPI. But those numbers come out hot. Expect, we all know 75 basis points are coming. And we've talked about that before. The big question is, will it be 75 or a full hundred? That's what it is. If a full hundred comes out, it's Armageddon short-term in the markets. And that's it. Always baby, two in every day, that's awesome. Hotski, thank you. There's a BitBoy shill and there's King of the shill. Hey, good news for BitBoy though. I don't know if you've seen him on Twitter. He's lost a ton of weight. Good for him. I tip my hat to him. It's easy to stay in shape. It's hard as hell to get in shape. Jason Johnson. What do you think of the recent news Google accepts in crypto? So the news, and I was gonna cover this, but I thought it was boring. Everybody's gonna talk about this today. So I don't wanna steal their thunder, but Google partnered up with Coinbase and they're gonna offer payments. And that's pretty much what it comes down to. So I think Google and cloud services and things like that. My question to everybody here is, is anybody here using their crypto for payments right now? I'm just, just sound off in the comment section. So to me, I'm like, is this a big thing? Like, are people really? I mean, it's a good way to move things in the right direction. I think it shows utility for Gary Gensler. Gary, if you're here, give me a thumbs up. And I think that, I mean, if we can show more utility in that side and say it's like more of a currency, if anyone want to figure it out as a security so much. So yeah. I just don't see it's like a big thing as far as like utility-wise. I'm not using my crypto for payments. I'm just not, not here. Oh no, Jarky's here. Thank you for the super sticker. I appreciate it. And Jarky, if you don't know, is real life Santa. He has been giving out memberships, expensive memberships, $1.99 memberships to digital asset news. Thank you. Queen of the bills. My ex-wife, that was a good dad joke right there. Yeah, see, Gary's got a shield, an onlooker who gets a cut of the cash register for the hollering praise in the audience. Could be. Everybody's got their own definition. Jarky, are you from Iceland? That's a good question. Jarky from the house. Jarky, should I have his own show? Should I have your own show? I'm really from, I'm from planet Earth. Trump was right, JP can't put. We'll see. That's a good one, Gary. I can't say that though. Oh, this is interesting. Thoughts on tech companies working on tokenized assets. There's an article that goes into detail. My question is this. The companies that are working on tokenized assets, are they tokenizing it in a centralized way or a decentralized way? And they're doing it in a decentralized way. Me personally, if I'm a big company, it may be not cost effective to create my own decentralized platform. I would probably just build it on somebody, on somebody else's, like an atom. That's like a layer zero. I would polka dot, cardano, ethereum, if you really want to get people to pay higher fees. I'm just saying. So like, I'd have to take a look at it, but to me, it only makes sense. It would make sense if it's centralized and we've got, there's other centralized businesses out there and they do their thing. It's fine. It's not what we're gonna go for. That's a single point of failure. And that's exactly what happens with the credit reporting agencies and where all your data gets leaked. Just so you know. So they do that, good luck to them. Hopefully they do it. They build it on a layer of one or zero. Yoga definitions. All right. Card dealer. Not like I've had it. Ha ha ha. Strangely, being poor makes people fatter in the West. I'm gonna tell you why. It's because you have an option. You can either go junk food, which is super cheap or health food, which is super expensive. And then of course, that's just how it is. Now, if you wanna go into the meal prep type of thing, you can lose a lot of weight. It just depends on what you wanna do. Me personally, pushing 50, I try to stay as active as I possibly can so I can have time with my grandson and not, we get out of breath. So I just try to, mostly the big thing is just walking, which is why I love sweat coin. Bam! Another show. All right. Let's see. Great question. So Chad says, when Bitcoin hits 100K, you're gonna take any profits or hold some black, so black rock can't get later on. Look, here's the thing. I know people think that institutions are gonna come in and they're gonna buy and hold forever, but not. The job of large institutions, except for MicroStrategy, they're on their own path, is to make profits and sell when necessary. And that's really what it comes down to. I don't think if black rock gets in, I could be wrong. Black rock could get in, but like, you know what? First of all, black rock could buy every Bitcoin out there. I think there's only so much in the exchanges right now, they could snap them all up like that. And it's at a pretty good price, you know? So I think what's gonna happen is, they're gonna, institutions, once we get regulation, they're gonna start to get in, they're gonna start to buy. And what do they do? Well, they wanna get profits for their customers or for their shareholders. They're gonna sell at some point. Don't think of these guys, don't let them fool you. They're not gonna diamond hand. The only diamond hand people that are out here are people who have been around since 2010, 11, 12. And of course, some of the new people, which is fine. Hold as long as you want to, not your dad, not a financial advisor, do whatever you wanna do. So the question that is, am I gonna sell? Yes, when am I gonna sell? I'll tell you exactly when I'm gonna sell. There's this website. Man, I'm really, really on the show today. It's called DanTeachersCrypto.com. It's 100% free. I made it free for everybody because not everybody can afford it, especially in different countries. Anyhow, you can click on the start learning and sign up. I'm gonna log in in the members area. There's a video under module three, investing. I talk about my golden rules, the things you see above or below usually. It's all gone. I'm just gonna scan all that stuff. Risk, wide dollar cost, average. There's two videos to watch. The bull run exit strategy for 2024 or 2025. I think that's what's gonna happen. And I can't, I'm not married to that idea of that year. I'm not holding out for that year. That's not a good strategy. What I'm looking at is these. Picyclotop and UPL, time and risk. These are all the things you can find. Well, except for time and risk. That's on Ben's website. Right into the crypto verse. Link in the description. Bam, another one. Cycle bottom callers. MBRBZ, two year MA, Pwell and reserve risk. I'm using these factors to see when I can sell Bitcoin. And then I'm using some other factors on this video of when to sell alts because Bitcoin usually runs up, then alts. People sell alts, get back down, get back into Bitcoin, the whole thing starts again. So this is me coming from 2017, 18, 19, 22, 23, five plus years, I'll be in eight years when this happens, I think. So that's my plan, Chad. And you can adopt some of that, all of that or none of that. Just take a look and go from there. Hey, Belize, can you ring current buys in the ledger? Not sure, let's take that out. That's a be a good video. Bring back, bring back George DC. Do you know how busy George is? Over at Cryptos RS? That guy does three streams a day. Plus he has a reactions channel. And I think he still does the card channel. That guy's got no time. And he's got young kids. I don't know, he does it. So now I'm gonna say, Protechos accept crypto donations, Ralph, thank you for your support. You're welcome. These are, Protechos is a nonprofit organization in Puerto Rico, which goes out for lower income communities and builds new roofs, which is in dire need, especially right now. They've been doing that for years and years and years. So I've donated a good amount to them. When we get back in town, we're gonna talk about solar panels and how we can make that cost effective. So we'll go from there. But yes, I don't know what happened to Delling Menu. I was at McDonald's a couple of days ago. Ordered two hamburgers, five bucks. Those are regular hamburgers. Hey, every so often you gotta have a cheat meal. And I love McDonald's, what can you do? McDonald's and beer. If I could give those two things up, I'd have an A pack. Who knows? Uphold accepts Apple Play. Great. Google and Coinbase. Yeah. Again, is anybody using crypto for payments? I'm just asking. Ah, why, as cases of wisely, institutions' purpose is to make money, not hold philosophical ideas. Most institutions, some are there, some are, but it's very true. Okay, so Dan says, load Coinbase debit card to PayPal for those purchases when a debit isn't accepted. PayPal's having big problems after that Fubar they did. But we'll see. Gary says, join us diamond-handed fools from the class of 2021. Look, I feel the same way. It's like, if you miss the, for me, if I miss the bull market, that's pretty much it. So I'm just holding. You can offload. Remember, remember the rules? You know, there's gonna be bare market rallies, guys. There is. And at that point, if you need to take profits, take profits. I mean, what's the problem? If you gotta pay for bills, you're like, hey, I gotta put food on the table or I gotta, I'd like to pay off this credit card with this crazy 19.99% APR. You know, maybe you wanna take some profits along the way. Do that. Turkey says, I don't pay taxes. Rich Dad, poor Dad, love it. Everybody read that book. Saved your life. Sounds good. Institutions love them. Hate them. Lexi says, hello. Oh, better mortgages here. All right. I think I'm saying that right. Yeah. Where I live, healthy food and unhealthy food are similar in price. UK is all expensive. Should I go to Puerto Rico? That place is super pricey. Yeah. It's tough to stay in shape, man. Yeah. Ruas first, solar panels next. It's a great question. It's a great question. Tim, if you die tomorrow, you know the code to your wallet and what is your plan to give it to your family? So I've already talked to my wife and she knows where all the secret codes are kept. And mostly they're just the momic phrase. And most of the things that I have, it's on a ledger's plural. We, I think we all learned a lesson about exchanges. Have we not? And that could be back in 2014, the Mt. Gox folks. That could be moving forward into today and the Celsius and Voyager folks. And actually you've seen multiple hacks almost in every exchange. You know, Binance was hacked at one point. So, and then other ones, Bitfinex being another big one. So I don't keep a lot. I don't trust anybody anymore. So I try to put things to my ledger. So when I talk about the staking, I'm not talking about staking through exchanges. I think I don't trust exchanges. I just don't. I don't even know if they're really staking it. And I don't even know if they're, I mean, they say they're staking it. But what if they're loaning it out or doing something else? And it's all in the terms of conditions. But it seems like they still lie to you anyhow. So the only one you can trust is you. So that's why, like the videos I'm gonna do, it's not about staking through exchanges. I think that's a recipe for disaster. It's just staking, especially if you can hold your own private keys. That's the best way to do it. Yeah. I could trust as, I guess as diamond hands, I don't have a choice. Yeah. I don't have a choice at all. That corn syrup you get in the USA they found, but it's delicious. Rob, which is a better daughter, Kusama. I always, I had never really, was a big fan of Kusama, but that is the proving ground. So I don't own Kusama, so I can't really speak to it. Polka Dot I do.
