 Hello everybody, welcome to Friday live stream. So we have a lot of things to go over. So let's just jump right in first things first we are going to be doing the tangent giveaway and We talked about this yesterday, especially with what was going on everything with ledger looks like they fixed it But again, just wait 24 hours since the time of the fix and also do me a favor and clear all the cookies of your browser The parent that might be an issue But regardless the tangent giveaway will be at the end of the video and if you don't know what that is We just said hey There was a tweet that I put out and I said if you want to win five Tangent wallets, I'll be giving away five to Five lucky people just follow me follow tangent repost the post and then we're gonna pick it Live and that will be today. So if you don't know tangent is my personal favorite as far as like wallets go I have a ledger a ledger a tangent man an ellipal But this right here is super easy very easy to use hasn't had any issues and a lot of the inner turmoil I think that ledger has but I still have a ledger. I still use it. So whatever But again, if you want to get into that, I put a link in the description So if you want to go over Twitter real quick and redo that then go right ahead But you got probably about 10 minutes. So we have that but this is the story bonk and I Just want to tell you from the get-go that I sold and It's not because I don't like believe in bonk if I think bonks gonna be fantastic Maybe it'll change the world. Maybe we knew reserve currency. No idea But things a little bit heated I'm gonna tell you why I did it and how much roughly and we're gonna go from there. So now I'm not a Person to you know jump on early and like I just got a couple days ago This was actually a tweet that I put out and this was on November 28th Not too long though. Honestly. I said hey bonk will be a top 100 coin. You can fight it or just accept it Disclaimer, I bought bonk previously beginning November It sits perfectly next to my doge bag just kind of funny and You know, there's a lot of people like hey, that's great But some people like that's ridiculous because doge is stupid. I mean I was giving views bonk is stupid And you know, why are you why trying to dump me Rob? All right, whatever so Taking a look at the charts not a big chartologist, but it was pretty flat for quite some time You know 5th 4th 3rd November and it's kind of one parabolic Does that mean because I knew something I knew was gonna go up. No, nobody does I mean we think we do but no one knows for sure just hey that's just how it actually happened and If I always just kind of looked at bonk is like I feel like bonk is a doge coin of this cycle quite honestly it's just built on Solana and When I was when I was taking a look at Solana and while I got back into that earlier in the year I thought to myself well Solana is doing really fantastic Maybe the ecosystem will do pretty good and then of course might take a look at you know, one of my Favorites dex is here Orca if you want to kind of look at that and see like you know, what is Going on the crown ecosystem. I mean, there's some pretty good stuff like helium network and Well, Orca of course Mobile helium mobile if you look those up They're like 35 60% for the week or something like that roll bit which is one of guys plays over at coin bureau and that's a gamble fi star atlas, which is Essentially one of those triple a rated web three games and the list goes on and on not not all these are winners But I might take when I took a look at bonk. I'm like, well that makes sense because it's just a meme coin So we could do pretty well so with that one there was some unintended not consequences, but outcomes and this is a tree a tweet from cadence and he says bonk helped save Solana December 2022 bonk helped save Solana mobile December 2023 and it hit me because I I had heard this story from Actually, my friend Steven right here Went to the meetup. He said hey, you know the story behind Bonk was it came out around December 2022 Which right was when you know Solana took a big huge dump especially with FTX and of course everybody label on that as the as the Sam Bankman freed coin and So everybody kind of deserted it now It actually Solana actually went down to nine bucks But around this time is when bonk launch and it really did save I don't know if it's saved But it really helped to buoy Solana and I'll remind you at this point like you're like that 13 bucks not so bad It's only at $76 today, but as a quick reminder if we max out at the peak The Solana was like 250 that was quite a heck of a dump, but it is what it is So there's that piece then of course there's this part about the phone the saga phone and This was actually ridiculed by a lot of people they said that was kind of ridiculous Why would you put a phone out and they did it and they actually delivered which a lot of people thought they would not I remember watching a video from Charles Hoskinson as a matter of fact and he was like why would you do that? you have to compete against Apple and Android that makes no sense now they did it and It actually had a quite a turbulent launch, but thanks to bonk Actually did pretty well it's a lot of mobile sales Soaring in 10x in the last 40 hours as bonk available to claim with the phone are now worth more than the phone itself And again, this is why like I preach diversify Because you never know what's gonna happen in crypto. This is insane if you really think about it This is why you put things around because you never know like You know, that's I mean a hundred bucks and bonk six months ago You're practically a millionaire now do the math for me in the comment section, but I mean, it's pretty crazy So if you want to buy the phone right now, I don't think you really can somebody says, you know 20,000 can claim the 30 million bonk and it looks like that may have already been maxed out This is from Salana mobile and they said wow what a day. This was at This is this morning two in the morning. They said we've officially sold out of saga phones in the US Huge thanks everyone who's been part of this journey to our friends in Europe We've still got a few left for you So I don't know if this is actually happening and if you can still get bonk, but there was 20,000 I think it may be too late, but correct me in the comment section I kind of lost interest when it said no phones in the US. Sorry Sorry, I'm kind of a Homer and there's that piece so The whole thing was well, what's the big deal the big deal was That there was announcement in June. They were gonna airdrop 30 million bonk Exclusively those who download the bonk app to the saga phone store I guess the value of the airdrop was peanuts before because bonk wasn't worth anything now It's worth nine hundred twenty six dollars exceeding the phone selling price of five hundred nine nine dollars and then there's this I wish I would have Linked this there's a great video of this gentleman who he didn't know if he was gonna actually be able to have This airdrop so he unboxed it. He went through the whole thing and he got like six hundred dollars worth of worth of bonk or five hundred seventy five I think it was actually and He was really excited and good for me good for this guy great like he got a phone for free That's awesome, and he's like now. I don't want to lie to my wife, which is pretty funny But at the very end of the video he says something Not concerning but just kind of like the normal mentality, which is this he's like this is awesome But am I gonna sell nope? I'm holding this until it goes whatever he said 10x or 20x. I always forget But he was very adamant and I got a perspective for that We'll see so there is that piece and Before we get to why so and of course, you know what it all means Just remember that I have these five rules for a reason I don't this so I can wait might waste my breath This is because of all the different trials and tribulations that we've all gone through one It's all gone. Don't invest more. You can afford to lose to 100% scams everything to scam until a pre-mother wise this would have saved your ass with ledger 0% exchanges don't use exchanges Don't leave anything on exchanges take them off and put in a cold storage devices again Also diversify like we talked about I use an ellipel a ledger a tangent Don't use leverage if you want to get wrecked you can use two to three I guess I mean I'm not a big deal when we go to 50 hundred actually just asking for trouble The last one is take profit. This is paramount I don't have to explain it to you guys because you guys are pros But I'm gonna have a real hard time when we get a bunch of the Tourists in which are gonna they're coming. They're coming fast And they're gonna ridicule us They're gonna make fun of us for selling because they think they know more than us because everything's gonna go to the moon and we'll see if that plays out for them, but Before I move on I'll just say like well, let me move on I got my soapbox. This is ridiculous So I said that I feel like Bonk is the dogecoin of this cycle and before anybody starts to laugh Which I can understand truly I can because dogecoin when I got in was a joke in 2017 But I just want to remind you I want to think about your token think about your coin right now Whatever it is. How long has it been around? What's its utility? Guy from coin bureaus did a great uh short clip video and he talked about the top five coins 10 years ago And none of them you're gonna know except for bitcoin and litecoin and they all had the same type of narrative Oh, this one's gonna be better than bitcoin. This one has faster transactions This one is really cheap. This one was a great team and the same thing those don't exist anymore So just be aware of that but dogecoin just want to take you down memory lane is Actually a fork of lucky coin All right, excuse me. Excuse me. I'll go on the right order Dogecoin is a fork of lucky coin lucky coin a fork of litecoin litecoin is a fork of bitcoin Hope we can all understand that so it has its roots in there, right? It was created in 2013 and actually like last week. It was the 10 year anniversary of dogecoin How did dogecoin do over 10 years? Not too bad Because just three or four months or two or three months after it was created in january 2014 It was a credit in 2013 in december, I believe It was number 16 Next year 2015 it was number nine 2016 january it was number six 2017 in january and it moved up and down. That's true Never it got to 14 January 2018 when everything was collapsing it hit 29 January 2019 it hit 24 January 2020 Not a good time either Not too bad 31 january 2021 hit 26 But then as we get into the when we got into the bull run It was uh within the top 15 and then in january 2022 It was number 12 And first of january 2023 is number eight and right now it's still in the top 10. So think about that About your coin. How long has it been around and has it been in the top 40 for a decade just asking And now let's do a little quick comparisons Actually, let's do this. This isn't going to make any sense unless I talk about this You say but rob How can that be be a case because there was a lot less money flowing in as far as market caps As opposed to right now. So let's just take four years back 15 december 2019 You had a market cap of bitcoin as 129 billion. That was it 129 billion 421 million 424,000 621 billion you know what the market cap today for bitcoin is 822 billion that's roughly six six and a half x Correct me in the comment section of my math So let's just say six x right roughly six x from here to here Now let's go down to dogecoin dogecoin had a market cap back then of 263 million 792,000 that was dogecoin and then today Not a dogecoin 13 billion Roughly a six seven x somewhere around there 6.5 So it's the same type of thing. So when I take a look at this I look like I say dogecoin is 13 billion And we come down here To bonk and it's at at 1.7 probably dropped a little bit Could it not go up like dogecoin's done before yeah, maybe potentially, but here's the real thing Take a look at this If you dollar cost average from to this isn't right Let's go back to 2019 december 15 2019 If you put in 10 bucks a day And you put into bitcoin and ethereum xrp cardinal avalanche dogecoin polka dot Tron Chainlink I shouldn't laugh at tron. I mean tron's gonna do just fine But if you did that Whenever it was laughing at you because dogecoin's a joke, right? Look at what it did over here January let's just go right here You would invest at $4,000 in a doge And you would add $101,000 you would be cardinal ethereum link And you would beat the pants off bitcoin avalanche tron xrp and dot if you would have kept doing 10 bucks So it's already 10 bucks a day to the next big rally in april You had half a million dollars and if you would have stopped out at the very very tippy top You're looking at All about a million bucks and you would have spent five grand So Just think about these things that means you're gonna make a million. No does that mean that it could happen? Yeah, why not? It's crypto, right? It digital assets anything can happen And because of that I sold I sold Why did I sell? What are my rules? And again, these rules are for me these rules aren't for you. You can incorporate those or not But I have those rules because for a specific reason to not allow me to do the things I did before Which is ride things up ride things down. I did pretty poorly in 2017 I did a lot better in 2021, but I could have done way better And this one I will not allow this to happen I have rules in place and I will follow those rules until the very end Unless something radically changes, right? US government comes out and goes, hey, bitcoin's gonna be the federal reserve It's gonna be the reserve currency of the world. I'll probably hold on to bitcoin So how much did I sell? Not all of it. I'm not crazy. Come on now But remember when I got in? somewhere over here It's like a six seven eight x or something like that if you're not taking some funds out. I don't know Actually, I can't tell you what to do. I'm not your dad. I'm not a financial advisor But I said like this take profits take pros take profits. This was on today. December 15th at six in the morning six in the morning Or roughly it was around five o'clock actually so ah Three o'clock 430 every writing right right here not bad Not awful pretty good Does that mean I can't shut up? Yeah, I might shut up. I don't know But again So I took out my initial investment and I doubled my money I took out some a little bit more as well as that so everything that I have in there is not my money It's house money. So I took the initial investment I took a big chunk of profits and let it ride. I don't know what's gonna happen But what I just told you about everything about it can be the nice doge coin It can really do well and all these things. I still believe in it. I still believe it could What does it do? It's a mean coin If it doesn't do too much great community Don't don't don't say it's not But I'm not gonna sit here and ride it all the way up and all the way down Could I have made a lot more money by running all the way up to When doge when bonk goes to a penny? Sure But who knows I am trying to mitigate my risk as things go up And it's up to you to decide if that's for you or if you want a yolo and let it all ride This is my this is my strategy doesn't have to be yours And that's it So look, I hope that made a lot of sense of how much I did why I did it and everything else I mean, look all the major exchange is already listed. It's on everything It was Binance this morning. It was Coinbase days ago. It was everything else I mean, it could probably still rip up, but I've got a good amount in there. Have my profits. I'm happy Hey, let me tell me what you think about that in the comment section And lastly Let's give away a tangent, right? I gotta tell you I've been using tangent Now for months and months and months and uh, I really do like it It's it's like this like it's so simple, right if you can you can have your phone and just do this That's all you need to do to transfer the thing. It's not like using your ledger and Punching these buttons and confirming and moving back back and forth and going man open and hope I didn't uh connect to a dap Just kidding. I don't think you I really honestly don't think that we should use our cold storage devices to connect the daps and dapses And you can do it, but I still I'm not gonna do it.
