 Oh, man, these are good. First up, Gatsby Fees, Nancy Pelosi, went to Taiwan to check up on her NVIDIA investment today. God, that's funny. So yeah, we'll see how it goes. I know somebody else in the comments section said that we're on the brink of war with China. Who knows, maybe. Just Google fourth turning. And you'll see how it probably might be. Who knows? And then Mr. Blue says, I'll return in mid to late 2023, if things possibly changed by in whole in breadth. That's probably the best investment strategy I've ever heard, quite honestly. Just letting go is going, I'll be here later. And that's pretty much it. Just set it and forget it as far as, like, if you want to dollar-cost average, don't do anything. Right now, it's just one of those times when we're going to be in a lull. I think we're going to be in a lull sideways chop for quite some time. Matthew says, hey, Rob, would you say that everybody affected by Celsius should fill in that form? Will it do anything? Will we not be getting anything if we don't? It couldn't hurt. I'll just tell you that. It'll cost you about five minutes. That's how long it took me to fill it out. And again, these are for New York residents as well. So I believe you have to be a New York resident, but it couldn't hurt. That's all I can tell you. So yeah, I felt that form telling that, hey, there was some shenanigans going on with what I was told as opposed to the terms and conditions, which were clearly not aligned. No never says, but it was a great opportunity to use the you had one job line. I should have done that. Jason says, I think they got tired of me. Oh, speaking of which, I trust. Just got a text right now. I'll read it to you. I can't tell you who it's from. But they said, hey, FYI, we're expecting trading to be live within one and 1 and 1 and 1 and 1 half hours. This is at 1.30. Right now, it's 2.20. So expect it to be up in 45 minutes. Phones will be back on for customer service. Email communication is going out, social communication as well. I've already talked to them about their abysmal effort for communication. And I was like, don't tweet. People, that's not a very good look for you guys. Excuse me. Talking too fast. It's not a good look to tweet out your responses. To be a little bit more professional, maybe use email. Just saying. And constant emails. You can curse. That's nice. We need less scammers. Bobby Shouts, photographer extraordinaire. Rob, where did you move? So you're in El Paso a lot. We still live in Puerto Rico. This we're doing a prolonged vacation here in El Paso, Texas. Who vacations in El Paso? This guy. Hey, Rob, what about ETH? Merger's coming up. Sounds like it's going to do pretty well. Buy the rumor, sell the news situation potentially. It's up to you. Someone says this real. Capo says it's a green screen. I'm in my mom's basement right now. Trying to be quiet to not wake her up. This is all green screen. That's right. Tommy. Bonjour. Michael, throw a pool in the chair. If I throw a pool, we'll just knock down the green screen. It doesn't work like that. Nick says, what about Pelosi? What about? I gotta tell you, pretty ballsy play. China comes out and says, don't you do it? OK. And she goes right to Taiwan. That's a good one. Great another bridge to get hacked. Laura's coming. I hear there, Rob, UGP. Hello? Dettaguana. Rob doesn't have a good track record when it comes to the people in interviews and shills. Look at Voyager. LOL. That's a good one. But it is a good point. Dettaguana does a good point. I talked about Voyager and Celsius for a lot. And unfortunately, with centralized exchanges, like what me and Cameron talked about, you'll never know the dealings that they do behind the scenes. Like, I had no idea that they were doing uncollateralized loans. I had to collateralize my loans. I'm just a small guy. You would think that making loans over half a billion dollars, you'd want some collateral. But I guess not. So you'll never know about those things. And that's why Ken had that great point. He goes, he talks about this is why I think DeFi is going to win. Because there's so many people looking at it. There's so many people that can take a look at the on-chain analysis. There's so many people that can call anybody out. And actually, after we talked, he was talking about how they had somebody bought five diamond hands NFTs on the meld platform. And he was notified within like an hour of somebody who was looking at on-chain analysis going, is this legit? And he's like, look, that will never happen in centralized exchanges because you can't see what the inner happenings are going on. But with DeFi, you can. So it's one of those things. Slow and steady wins the race. That's right. Ron says, Dan, you've become my favorite. More knowledgeable YouTuber. Thanks. Moving my Ada to DNews. Thank you for the first time in effort you put into your videos. Look, if you don't know what to do with your Cardano or Ada, there's a great film. Pretty good. Pool, stake pool with DNews. There's a link in the description that calls Stake with DNews or Cardano Staking with DNews. Takes you to a video. It's about 25 minutes or so. Shows you everything you need to know about how to stake it and all those things. And also, you know what's great about Cardano on staking? It never leaves your wallet ever. Like you have control of your private keys. So when people talk about our Cardano is like it doesn't really work that well and everything else can't build on it. First of all, a lot of different things in the ecosystem moving. And second of all, they crushed. They crushed the ease of use and how to actually stake Cardano. They did. Tell me who's easier. YSK. I was just looking at a bankless podcast and I was talking about DeFi and the problem with tokenomics and DAO and how it was really not set up like should and part of it like right. They're probably right. Look, here's the thing with DeFi. We just saw it. There's very few protocols to get it right now. This is where all the problems in the hassles come in and where all the testing comes in and where most people get screwed over. I gotta admit, that's why I'm kind of staying, I'm not kind of, I am, I'm staying on the sideline just seeing who gets wrecked, who screws up and who actually does the right thing at the right time with the right people and moves forward and doesn't get destroyed. That's all I really care about. If you can make it through this, this bear running the next ones, you'll be good to go. So I just look at the ones that keep getting hacked. That's it. And this is a point I should have made a long time ago and Fia's right. Humans are corrupt by nature and until they don't evolve, they're not to be trusted. Everybody is a liar except me. Just kidding. I lied too, let's be honest. No one is perfect. We're all liars, we're all cheats and we all have dark sides to us, right? Humans are corrupt by nature which is why, like I talked about, these centralized players, it's just human nature to screw up like that. It's human nature to do these wrong things. And of course people say, well, I would never do those things. Of course you wouldn't, but you're not like everybody. Everybody's different. That's why I think I put a lot of trust in these crypto projects, the ones that actually are making it because you can eliminate those emotions, those wrong doings, those underlying tones of human nature and just move to the crux of what it's supposed to be. It's just supposed to be to help you and me move forward in life as far as with finances. And that's what DeFi's supposed to do. Centralized exchanges just took that and they perverted it in a crazy way. And now here we are. And I think that's most centralized exchanges, even the ones that haven't gotten wrecked yet. Ah, I'm planning to learning these decks more. Me too. I should probably be doing a lot more of that. Ah, John Wallace says, it is the best vaporware out there. And then Purple Vincent says, a vaporware you can build on. And just so you know, there's this, let me bring this up. So I know people like to talk about Cardano, it's vaporware and I get it because that's what a lot of people have said. You know what people also used to say all the time? Diamond hands, never sell. Keep holding on forever. That's dumb. I mean, it's not the greatest advice you could ever give to somebody. You gotta take some profits along the way unless you're just gonna like hold for 20, 30 years. You can do that. I just don't think that's the right strategy for me. I can't tell you what to do, obviously. But for vaporware, Cardano, there's a link in the description. It's called Cardano vaporware or Ghost Chain. That's what it was. This was the ecosystem in 2020. This is the one in 2021. This is November 2021. This is also April 2022. That's the ecosystem. Here it is for the 6th of June 2022. All the projects being built on Cardano while it's stablecoins, oracles, NFT marketplaces, community, data, dev team, developer tool, identity solution, incubator, so on and so forth. And then of course, if you wanna really dig it down, here is how much is being staked. I don't know if you can see it, but it's 72% of the entire circulating supplies being staked right now, 72%. And I don't know if you've ever staked Cardano, but there's no lockup periods. You can stake it, un-stake it that same day. So if we take a look here, the staking ratio, okay, 71.43, I'll round up, 72%. Market cap is 15 billion. The staking market cap, 11 billion. That's not too bad. And it's ranked number three. So, and then of course people will say, what about DeFi, Rob? What about DeFi? Well, the total amount of DeFi, if you take out DeFi Lama is 72.53 billion. Ethereum is by far the biggest winner, or the biggest one that as far as locked up, 45 billion. Not gonna take that away. They're crushing it. However, Bitcoin on DeFi is only 118.55 million, and Cardano just beats Bitcoin in this one, 118.56. So I understand that people say, ah, it's vaporware, but is it, is it, is it really? Just asking the question. All right, so let's see. What else do we have? My opinion, I'll go around. Very smart people behind it. Let's see if they can scale. I'm waiting for that, and I'll go from there. I don't know. I own some. Let me rephrase that. I left some on Voyager. Part of my portfolio is still stuck over there, so we'll see. Maybe Voyager's owns it. Puerto Rico soon, yeah, September, October, we go back, which is great. Exactly, this is not an air-conditioned room. I think it's like 97 today. So maybe it's like 102 in here. I'm okay with me. Let's see. Hey, Rob, would you consider building and organizing up your playlist section? I would consider it, but I'm not gonna do it because I got a ton of other things to do. I should probably just get my assistant to do it, so yeah, I probably should do that. But I'm doing some big upgrades for the website. DanTeachersCrypto.com, 100% free website. Also, I'm getting together my 2024-2025 Bull Run strategy, which should be out this week. And I'm gonna do some radically different things for me. What's this say? Digital Cable says, Rob, would you be interested in posting the show as a daily audio podcast and a fountain app? Bitcoin Lightning-based podcast, yeah, sure, I guess. Mr. McPickle says, old people like the heat. That's true, we do. Let's see. How is your computer not exploding? So I have a chill pad right here. I've learned that if I keep it out here and I don't have a chill pad, it starts getting glitchy, so I have a chill pad. It's like a little, it's like a freezer. The pad that you stick in the freezer and take it out when you want it. Uh, let's see, great info. Don't get it on. Okay, so that's it, everybody. Is that it? That is it. So look, that's it for today. 45 minutes, it's pretty good. We got through a pretty long news session. And again, Ken from Mel, don't want to say thanks so much for going on. The stuff that he tells me behind the scenes, dynamite. Can't tell you though, unfortunately, but I was kidding, he doesn't like to say much. But it was a good one. So Ken, thanks again for stopping by and everybody here who's here hanging out with me on a Tuesday, thanks for stopping. I appreciate you guys, I do. If you do me a favor, hit the like button and subscribe, or one of those too, it'd be great. But if not, I'll see you tomorrow. So look, thanks so much for stopping by. I do appreciate it. And I will see you guys in the next one, which will be mañana. So adios, have a good rest of your day. Bye.
