 Stick around, we'll do a little Q&A, I'll answer all your questions, the best of my abilities, we'll go from there. But you gotta take off, take off. But now let's go into a little question and answer and I'll go from there. Aristotle or Plato, it's very cold. I'm sorry, man, wherever you're at. Beautiful day here in Puerto Rico, I'm telling you. If you guys have an opportunity to vacation here or just live here, this place is great. It is great and get here before the next bull run. Because when I got here in 2020, 2021, it was a lot of people coming in, but great news in the bear market, everybody leaves. So if you got a chance, I would do that. So it says, Rob, thank you. I got my, oh, we got your 70 bucks worth. Cool, let's see if it goes up. Meme coins are weird, man. They can go up exponentially or it could not be a big thing. Who knows, I'll probably sell mine because I don't really think it's, maybe it's got some, maybe it goes to the moon, I have no idea. If you have, here's the thing about taking profits. I can't tell you what to do, I mentioned dad, not a financial advisor. But if you did get this one token and you got 70 bucks, might not be a bad idea to take like half, maybe 60, 75% and just take that out into just cash and do whatever you want with it, as opposed to watching it go to zero. Just a pro tip. I've done that many times and I always feel stupid for doing it. Anyhow, give it a shot. Foopie says, what was the video called or Rob wore the shirt? I will show you what that is. That is this one. Let's see, see, see, see, see. This was the shirt with me and Simon Dixon. It's, if you just do a Google search or on YouTube search for a T-shirt, should be the first one that comes up. And that was the video. Fun times. I was wrong. It was funny because I was, the whole bet was I didn't think that we're gonna ever get a Bitcoin ETF and it did. And I said I was happy enough to be wrong and rich, then right and poor. Unfortunately, as soon as that ETF came on, I was wrong and poor because it kept going down. I'm just kidding. Everybody thought it would go up. I was like, I don't really think it's gonna go up that fast, but here we are. Yeah. Exhortion says I'm bored now. Sounded like the same C everyone else says. So look, that's the thing about crypto, digital assets. And it's actually a funny thing because like, if you look at some, here I'm gonna show you something. This is actually a pretty good tweet or a pretty good piece of information. Just think about this. What does a meme coin do? Does it do anything? Does it help you out, pay for your groceries? I mean, I guess if you can sell it, but I think that's kind of like the greater fool type of theory. So like, what's the point? I mean, what is it like as far as like utility than that it does? Of course, if you're gonna say, well, Rob, it's community-based and da-da-da. And I don't really think that's really what it is. So take a look at this one. Let me pull this up so you can see it. Talking about utility, where all the people are at price action. This was a post by XeroX Master Crypto. It's a pretty good name actually, Master Crypto. Hey, and he says, look at this. BNB has 1.3 million users daily. So they have a 96 billion market cap. Makes sense, right? All right. Solana, 750,000 users daily. They have 40 billion market cap. And of course, we can verify this if we go over to Artemis.xyz, right? Matic, Matic, has 658,000 users daily. They have a $7.2 billion market cap. Ronin, which is essentially the main gaming, not the main gaming chain, but a gaming chain, Ronin, has 675,000 users daily in line with all this. And where is their market cap? 717 million. If you don't know, there's a game called Pixels. Hey, he's always talking about this. Every time I see on a cat, he's like, hey, we got, and their daily active users are like in the hundreds of thousands, right? But yet price action doesn't really go up too much. It's kind of, actually, let's see what it is. Ronin, I'm sure it's in the top 200 by now, 93. Yeah, look at that, 16%. But just looking at that, you think to yourself, why is it, it's kind of lagging. Let's see, what's it going over? Seven days, 20%, 14 days, 45%, 30 days, 36%. And one year, 245%. Hell, Bonk did like 1,000% but yet here we are. So I know like when people say, ah, this is boring, this is what it is. Sometimes the utility and the price just does not equal. And this is, we're all in price discovery. So even though like there's some kind of great product that actually does something, sometimes it doesn't matter. People who are gamblers. Case in point, I want to show you one more thing too. There was a project that I really like, Aluvium. Aluvium, if we take a look at the max out, see this in 2021? It was $1,844, almost 2,000 per token. What is it now? It needs two bucks. Let me show you something. And what they had as far as a game back in 2021, they had renders and screenshots and nothing. And now you can go there and actually play these games. I wish I could get an actual video of it. Let's go, yeah. Like this is actual, is this gonna go or not? No, this is like actual live gameplay footage. And you're telling me that it's not worth the $1,800. It's all speculation and price appreciation. That's all it is. That's all it is at this point. So I know like people say, ah, bored, it's not really going up. Hey, that's how it goes. Ah, shoo, pool, man. That's a good question. Why doesn't my balance and coinbase update itself automatically, anybody? I don't know if there's, that might be an issue. I haven't had that issue per se right now. The only time I have an issue with balances is MetaMask. I don't know if you guys have that issue too. I hate using MetaMask. It looks like I will open it up and like, hey, where'd all my crypto go? I don't really keep that much because I know it's this hot wallet. So I'm gonna get screwed over. It's gonna be in those types of wallets. But I'm like, hey, where's my 25 bucks? You know, 25 bucks, 25 bucks. And then I have to go through a couple steps and update and that's a pain. But for you, pool, man, I'm not for sure it should do that unless they're having a slowdown. It was a lot of activity. I think we're due for a coinbase shutdown just like the old days. And pool, man says, I hit the like button. Thanks, man. It's nice to you. He said, 7.22 says, I got wind air drop and bought more, good deal. Benny's here. Do you think Trump is cute? Trust wallet does the same thing. Yeah, trust wallet, the same thing. Trump is cute? It's not for me to say. Let's see, crypto space is booming. Beardy's here. Report is a basement to a troubleshoot. Kagar says, did you claim the winner? I did, it was very simple. My friend, Steven, showed me how to do it. Like that was one of the easiest ones you could possibly do. If you've ever used any kind of wallet, your slant of wallet, and integrated in with the Jupiter exchange, which is essentially what they want you to do, just use the stuff and they'll give you free tokens. And yeah, the problem is, is when you go through a lot of different air drops and you connect your wallet, and then all of a sudden, all the work that you do for air drops or trading, it's all gone because it's a trainer. Which leaves me another point. If you guys would follow me on X, you don't have to. But, there was a really good post here. I'll show you about wallet draining and how to protect yourself. Where did, this one right here. It's from Pix, Pix sorcerer. He clicked on 100 scam NFC ads and here's what happened. And I'll just have you, I'm not gonna go through the whole thing, but essentially it was 98% of them that drained his wallet. And he just did that to show you just how easy it is. So, if you're gonna interact with anything in a hot wallet, make sure there's not much in there because you're gonna get taken for a ride. And that's how it is. Jeff, good to ask a good question. How can YouTube allow scammed Bitcoin ads from Michael Saylor? I have a lot to report a dozen and still give them every 50 minutes. Look, I have my theory. I don't wanna go get sued, but you can kind of assume where I'm going. I will say this though. I'm glad you brought this up. Because in the description of all of my videos, there's three videos I'd like everybody to watch. One is why and when I'm selling 80% of my crypto in 2025. The second one is don't make these crypto mistakes which kind of gets you out of trouble. It's on how much you make it's how much you keep. And the third one is don't fall off this AI scam. It's six minutes. It's not monetized. You don't have to worry about having an AI generated Michael Saylor or Brad Garling House or anybody pop up. And it just shows you what to do and how to combat that. Now, it looks like Jeff already knows or has done this, but this is something that I think we should all be aware of, especially the people that are new to the situation and go, hey, I know that guy. He's the Michael strategy guy. He's gonna give me two Bitcoin. All he had to do was send him one. What a sweet deal. And if you think that's laughable, just wait. Just wait till all the tourists come and they're gonna do the same thing. It's gonna be awful. I shouldn't have laughed, but you gotta learn somehow. Dad, Jeff, Jeff, Jeff, Jeff, Jeff. Ah, John Louise always sending me great stuff. John Louise sent me two great pieces. One was, it was Brian Brooks. He was the former head of the OCC Comptroller. And Brian Brooks talked about why JP Morgan and the banks were so upset with Bitcoin. And he said it goes, because he said it's a misnomer. It's not cryptocurrency. He said, in reality, it's not really to be used for currency, but it can replace the banks. And he gave a great example of it. And that was one of the videos that John sent me. Another one was, if you could explain Bitcoin in another nine seconds. And I forgot the guy's name. He wrote the cost of tomorrow, the price of tomorrow. And he said, in nine seconds, he said, it goes like this. If you don't get into Bitcoin, everything that you buy is going to go up. So if you keep yourself in cash, everything will appreciate and you'll be left in the dust. That was essentially it. I knew he was totally right. Going to John Louise's question. Hi, Rob Popley, I don't interviewed Fred Teal, CEO of Marathon, his personal facets. The new Bitcoin all-time high, late Q3, early 2024, then a sell-off in the mid-40s, low 50s, a new all-time high, end of 2025, we did the 120K range. I could see that. I saw a piece of that, what he was talking about as far as ordinals and how much they got paid as miners. He said it was actually pretty good. So they got paid more than a couple of blocks for ordinals, transcriptions, than actual mining Bitcoin. Interesting. Yeah, you know, it could be. We'll see what happens. I personally think that we're all in the right place at the right time, especially right now. A little bit on, I heard a rapper saying, stacking Bitcoin. That was probably beardy. Press one if you've been a victim of scam. That's everybody. Nas is here. Adam says YouTube makes money from these schemas. That's very true, actually. Underpaid YouTube workers with his tip chart. That could be true. Ben's haircut is here. Good evening, everybody. Yeah, the whole, the trifecta of Benjamin Cohen is here. That's right. Yeah. And it tells us, hey, everything he said and he was trying to do, I see peace in me doing already. This is the thing. Nobody knows which one's gonna be the big winner, right? So maybe diversify instead of going, you know what? I remember when I got in in 2017, it was Bitcoin or nothing, essentially. And then I was like, well, maybe Bitcoin or Ethereum. Then it was like, maybe Bitcoin or Ethereum, XRP. And XRP was like the greatest thing of all time. And if you've ever sold it, of course you were a moron and paper hands and weak and you never not gonna make it. Now here we are. So it's time gone on. I realized that it best to diversify because no one knows squats sometimes. There you go. I read it online. Good afternoon, Rob. How's your Satoshi VM bag doing? So there's a funny thing. Women covering this on X, people don't like me covering on X though. They don't like me covering it at all. Like why would you talk about a scam coin? It's fascinating. So Satoshi VM, if you don't know, this has been, first of all, to answer your question. Satoshi VM, I bought a little bit because it's a gamble. All this stuff's a gamble, right? But then when we did a video not too long ago and said, hey, and especially on X, we're like, hey, this Satoshi VM, which is supposed to be a layer two solution, EVM compatible so it can do everything that it does on Ethereum and help to scale Bitcoin, sounds pretty good. So this whole thing was great. Sounded good, but it was just white paper and hope, which is essentially what a lot of things are. So I bought a little bit, but then I heard of rumblings from Ape Terminal and a couple of influencers that got caught for essentially pumping and dumping. So as soon as I heard that, I'm like, I'm out of here. And I did a, I posted on X and I did a quick video, said something about it and it's one of them. And that was it. And now it seems like these Ape Terminal and the influencers are all saying, no, no, no, it was a misunderstanding and it was this outside development team. I don't know, follow me on Twitter, but really what it comes down to is this, that was a bad situation from the get go. And that's what you get when you gamble. That's all. And it's all gambling. So yeah, Rob, do you believe in the Goldilocks zone? Like as far as galaxies? No, I'm just kidding. So I don't know what you're talking about. So talking about it's this. We talked about this a couple of times, but lately, the Goldilocks zone is the time right before having and right after having. And if we took a look at this, going backwards in the 2020 timeframe, I think the last having was May 11th, somewhere around there, 2020. Correct me in the comments. But you had a lot of big projects that popped up, Matic, April, Axie, Solana, which quintidentally Axie is now on Ronin, or that's their main chain, Ronin. Solana, April 2020, San, Shiba Inu, Gala, Avax, but you also had Luna and you had a whole host of other trash that came forward. So I believe that this is the time if you're a smart project, you don't wanna probably launch in November 2022. Maybe you wanna launch when everything's going up, just the thought. So I believe in it, but you gotta understand that for every 10 things that launch, only one actually works out, rest are just trash. And that's why we gamble. That's essentially what it is. Or you can just say like this, I'm just gonna invest in Bitcoin and sleep easier at night. Have you ever noticed how like stress-free Ben is on NFA? He seems like pretty relaxed, right? That's all he's like, I'm just gonna get into Bitcoin, that's it. You know, and then sometimes, you know, we take a look at guy and he looks a little bit tired. Look at me, I'm 23 years old. I look awful. So yeah, that's what it is. Farqana, so Farqana, another web three game, G2 behind that for the Esports platform and then the rewards were in Bitcoin. Let's see, I don't know how it's doing. Cause I have a lockup period for like six months. Holy smokes, doing pretty good. Well, that's awesome. If I didn't have a lockup period, that's the problem. Like when I get into these projects, I have to lock myself up. Well, that's just how it works. You know, if you're in a good project, they're not gonna let you dump on everybody. So like with sweat coin, I have a lockup of like, I get, the lockup was a year and then I still have, I piecemeal it over the next two years. Go figure, right? And I actually paid them to talk about it. I like the project. Farqana, six month lockup and then it's seated over, I think like another year. So if you're in a Farqana, congratulations. Got any idea? It's a pretty good product. I like it. It looks like a pretty good game. You'll seem to love that stuff. Alt later, I have not, I'm sorry. Rob, you a muscle car guy, I picture you driving in the back roads of pure vintage Corvette. No, because if you ever drive in the back roads, you know how tiny those are in Puerto Rico, you probably scrape up that beautiful car. No, I have a 2019 Hyundai Venue, which I roll around in because it's first of all, it's cheap and I can buy more Bitcoin and stuff. And second of all, because I can park it anywhere. If you live in Puerto Rico, you know what I'm talking about. Yeah, cracking is risky. Saludos, saludos. You're not, that was a joke. I'm a half a century. So yeah, I don't know about 60, it's kind of harsh. So you're buying a Louisville, I am buying a Louisville actually. I had Kieran and his brother on. They seem to really love games and want to make this thing work. I like, I can appreciate that. John says he need a Jeep Wrangler there. My friend John's got a Jeep Wrangler, likes it. But again, it's hard to get around and park and stuff like that. Good hold tells in Puerto Rico, some of the best. Some of the best. Yeah, here's another thing. I'm glad I got in a sweat coin, you first put the video, I walked out over 8K and sweat coin for free, yeah. There's another one with utility, just seems to be a stable coin. BM says, what amount of, this is a great question, we'll stop here. What amount of Bitcoin do you tell your friends to get to? None. You know why? Because I'm sick of telling them. At this point, I'm like a lazy outfielder, you know. If it's a pop fly and it's coming in my direction, I'll put my glove up, right? But I'm not running that ball down and doing a dive and catch. If you want the information, you got to come to me. I don't care about it, people anymore. The only thing I care about is the people that come here to watch because you've made the effort. But I'm not here to convince anybody to like really get into it and do those things. I'm like, hey man, if you want to learn about it, I got a website. I'll tell you a little bit, but it's up to you to do it. Do your own research. And that's it. I think people appreciate that more than you trying to ram it down their throat. They'll figure it out. And if they don't, hey, I did my minimal excellence. That's it. Anyhow, everybody, thanks so much for stopping by. I do appreciate it on a Saturday night. It's great. If you liked today's video, give it a thumbs up. Consider subscribing. Everything we talk about is time sensitive. But that's it for today. Guys, again, thanks so much. And then tomorrow I'm going to have Tony from Thinking Crypto is going to be on the show. I love having guests. It's always fun to get a different perspective of what's going on. So Tony will be here. We'll do it probably around this time tomorrow. So see everybody at that point. Thanks everybody. Adios.
