 And then now if you want to stick around, I'll do a little Q and A. And I'll answer your questions to the best of my abilities and we will go from there. And there was a couple of ones I saw in the very beginning. I wanted to answer. Darren Wilkes, I got to find a way to stay the course of DCAing these higher prices. So, here's the thing. The thing about DCAing is I can't tell you what to do. If you think yourself like everything's just gonna keep going up and you're like set, like you've accumulated enough, then maybe it's time for you just to stop and just wait for it to go up, right? Because maybe you, because the problem that I think a lot of people, even myself will sometimes do is you'll see how people will say, okay, well, it's gonna go down and it's gonna go down. And even me, like I tell you, like I've told you before, I thought that Bitcoin can go to 12K. I thought that a recession can come on Q1. I thought there was more downside, but I'm like, I'm not 100% sure. And because I'm not 100% sure, I will continue to dollar cost average. Have I never, have I not said that ad nauseam? Because as smart as we all are and we think we are, there's things just, there's a wrenches that just get thrown into the mix before you know you're like, shoot, maybe I should do this. So I can't tell you what to do, but I can tell you that I think as time goes on, you'll probably be rewarded if you pick the right projects moving forward. I know like, here's a prime example. In 2018, after my first bull run, when I was buying Ethereum at like 400, 500 bucks or something like that, and then I was buying in 2018 Ethereum, like 86, 92, 98 dollars, 124. Once it got to that point of like, where I was used to it, where I went to like 500, 600 bucks, I'm like, man, this sucks. Now I gotta buy this super expensive Ethereum. I'm getting Bitcoin here at like $9,000. This is way overpriced. Sweet Mary Joseph, I'm buying Cardano like 52 cents. At some point I'm like, this is ridiculous. Which right now actually is, but the point is that as time goes on, time in the market is more important than timing the market. I think that's the big case. I will say one thing though about time in the market. Time in the market is great for accumulation, but timing the market when you're taking profits, I think it's absolutely valuable. And that's why we're gonna focus on that moving forward. All right. Anyone else feel FOMO? Yes, you're gonna feel FOMO especially on today. And of course as the price goes up, isn't that amazing? Price goes up and you're like, I gotta keep buying stuff. Yet when the price was going down, what'd you think to yourself? I'm not gonna buy this trash. It's just the opposite thing. And you have to kind of reverse your inklings or the way that you do things. And that's why like when I was talking about dynamic DCA over here, this I gotta tell you it goes, it flies against everything that you will feel and think that is right. As the price starts to decrease, you start to put my money in. And at some point you're gonna start to save yourself. Man, it feels like I am throwing sand in the ocean. Especially when, you know, if you're used to buying Bitcoin at the 0.7 to 0.8 level, whatever that is, right? That could be 30,000. Then it goes to like 19,000 or no, 30,000 to like 27,000 to 24,000 and 20 and 18. You're like, why are we doing this for? Why are we doing this for? Because at some point bear markets will last forever and neither do bull markets. That's why you do it. But again, you have to understand that I just talked about Bitcoin. That's the most probably the best bet in the most unforgiving market that we possibly have. And if you're investing into a lot of altcoins, especially in low market cap gems, just know that you have a good chance you could lose everything. So even if you, you can dollar-cost average forever and you'll never get it back. There's a couple of examples that I talk about, but not today. All right, yes, that's right. Happy birthday, Beardy. Beardy got his 1,000th subscriber today or follower. So happy birthday, Beardy. Good to hear that you're still around. Jason says, didn't Ben say once Bitcoin diamonds were just 60 then bull market is only beneficially here. It's either that or he talks about that's around the time that he's starting going to get into altcoins. I can't remember. And then we go round and round and I say, I'm gonna get into altcoins. He said, that's not a good idea. And I must admit, so far in 2023, he's been right. There's been a couple of deads and that's just true. And like I posted an image of like from September of 2023 to today and most of my DCA is up. But if you go back to when I started, which was 2022, I'm still underwater and I'm okay with that. Ben's shelf is a hack, it's all me. Beardy's birthday, bearish on shares, the bulls are here. Yeah, the bulls come out. I like these days because everybody's in a good mood, everybody's upbeat. You could say something about a project and you say like, this isn't really a great project. People are like, that's okay, I believe in it. That's the power of a bull market. When you get in a bear market, everybody wants to fight. That's okay, it's just normal. G-Soul is way overpriced, don't buy it. All right, for our talk about ontology. Bluntly, I don't own it, man. So you know what that means, I don't talk about it. I don't talk about it because one, I don't know about it and one, I didn't invest into it. Everything that I talk about is I've invested into and I'm super biased in this channel. Rob, did you see Apex? I'm afraid to even ask, but hopefully it went up because I invest into Avalanche. It's up 12% for the week. Let's see, 12% where'd it go? Avalanche, 12.4 for the week. But it's down 0.3 for the hour. 1% for, what is this? Oh, 1% for seven for 24 hours and 13% for seven days. Not too bad. Heck, I'll take it. There's other ones that are much bigger though, but that's how it is. Look at Aftos. Aftos went down for like five hours, didn't make a block, up 23% for the week. Some people like undervalues, undervalued and good for them. Good for them. That's right. Everybody likes the dopamine shot. That's why we are looking at our, that's why you scroll on Twitter. That's why you look at your portfolio. That's why you look at responses. It's all about that. Nothing wrong with that. I'm just trying to get addicted. Miss the notifications? That's just YouTube. That's the normal. Not much you can do about that. Yes, score book. Glad I packed my bags. And, you know, we talk about this. And again, it's tough to do because it goes against what, you know, people think you should do. And you start to just keep accumulating and accumulating. But this, to me, that's what these years are for, accumulation, quite honestly. And if you, you know, if you dynamic DCA, it works out. Now, what would be awesome is if you could time it perfectly and just say, okay, this is the bottom. And I'm going to put a lump sum of everything into it for Bitcoin, here's the bottom. Ethereum, here's the bottom. Avalanche, here's the bottom. Pepe, coin, here's the bottom. Whatever. I just can't do that. I don't know very many people that actually can. I will tell you this. Since I dollar cost average every single day and I have these, and somebody asked me this, they go, how do you do that? Dollar cost average every single day. I have it run automatically through Coinbase because I'm American, I'm stuck with Coinbase, but it's not that bad. Actually, it's much better. And I pay for Coinbase One, which is, I pay for it for the year. It's $19 per the year. And it's, there's no fees of the $10,000. So for me, it works out pretty well. And yeah, so I'm not saying that's what you should do. And I don't have a link for you. I don't have an affiliate link with Coinbase. So you just go to coinbase.com. That's what it should be. So, yeah, I feel positive. Everybody feels positive. They're very positive on a green day. Auction, love the show. Thank you. Benny. Hopefully we can find that Jarky imposter. So true, I'm still watching charts each day after being unemployed for almost a year. I got the same situation now. Oh man, I've been unemployed before. It sucks. Hopefully things work out and we get to the next bull run and we can all just decide on the job we really wanna be at. Mine is glitching worse than Puerto Rico, I doubt that. Oxygen silver says, Rob, did you get wrecked during your first run? Yes. And I panic sold a little bit and I was pretty pissed off because all the influencers lied to me. They told me that everything was going to the moon and I was gonna get this thing called a Lambo. And I was gonna be millions of dollars and institutions right around the way. Also an ETF was about to be approved because the CBOE was gonna bring in their futures Bitcoin ETFs, so any day now. And then of course in 2018 and January and February 2018 everything kind of collapsed. Except for a theorem, I actually had a pretty good pump in January. And I sold a little bit because I was pissed and I was mad, angry. And I realized that the person I'm angry at is myself because I didn't do the things I was supposed to do. I didn't read up on the things, I didn't do the research I was supposed to do. Mentally I was weak and I needed to make sure that that didn't happen again. So that was the big thing. And then my wife, lover, she gave me this great book called The Intelligent Investor. And I said, I read that. I think this was in February or March. She got it to me because she knew I was angry. And after that I went up to her and I go, here's what we're gonna do, babe. We're going to not sell anything because that's selling to a loss. And even though this market is in the toilet, we're gonna continue to do this thing called dollar cost to average and keep buying. And we're gonna keep doing that until the next bull run because bear runs don't last forever. And she goes, well, I know you're stubborn so we'll go right ahead. That was it. So that was the lesson learned and that was how it all works out. You always get the price of Bitcoin and altcoins that you deserve. That's just the truth. Nothing wrong with taking profits. All about your time. Midlife crisis, what should I buy? I had that a long time ago. What should I buy? Beardy, what you should do is just keep loading up on that EOS because between me and you, we probably have 50% of the circulating supply right now. We could be the only EOS whales out there which also be like, I'm also a tomato coin whale so it's like both are worthless. Yeah, look at that, almost 1,000 viewers a day. See, when the bull run, that's it. And you know what's funny is that like when I started my channel, it was the end of November 2019 and I didn't see any traction, any traction for the channel until right before the Bitcoin halving which was in May of 2020. So it took, yeah, there's nothing really going on because people were like, well, this market sucks. And that again, that was November 2019. We're just getting into November of 2023. So I think that, I mean, you think, like I said, like you think now was a good day? You think this was fun? Just wait. They get crazy. And the thing you need to start worrying about right now is what am I gonna sell? And of course, you don't have to sell. You can diamond hands forever. You can pull a Michael sailor and just, I'm diamond hands. That's great. Go ahead and do that. Some people wanna take some profits. Some people wanna sell everything. Some people wanna sell 10%. Some people wanna pay off their loans. Some people wanna get a house. Some people wanna get a car, whatever they wanna do. Some people wanna pay for their kid's tuition. I don't know. So if you're looking to take profits, that's what you need to start focusing on. Cause I guarantee most of you already figured out how to buy dips and dollar cost average and maybe even lump sum and of course, dynamic DCA. Maybe you're scalpers and traders. It's important to take the profits and it's one of the rules and why I put it up there. Jenelle says, your wife is the power behind the film. That's usually how it always is. Robert Stubborn. Robert Stubborn dumb. And that's my superpower. Hello, EOS whale. The clown filter has been deprecated. We can't use that anymore on the streaming software because they took it down. So that's the only reason I don't use this. It was a great filter. I can't use it anymore. Dino says, do we have a clue about how much capital will flow with the new possible ETFs getting in? What will we do to Bitcoin and all coins? Somebody did a composite of between all the different institutions that are supposed to be applying for this spot ETF. I think it's like $17 trillion or something like that. Now, of course, $17 trillion is not flowing into the altcoin market. That's ridiculous. But they took a look and it was like North $150, $200 billion easily in the very beginning. But I don't think it's just not, it's not just that. I think it's that and the optics of how you have traditional finance really going in heavy and people looking at that going, you know what, I didn't really get it. But again, I think a lot of people are lemmings and they look at that like, well, those guys did it and they invest into X, Y and Z, so I'm gonna do it. And before you know it, people just jump on the bandwagon. Matanya Holmes says, when should we take profits? That is a fantastic question. And for you, there is a link in the description of all my videos. First of all, this was the video I was talking about to take a look at for the recession Bitcoin having. But if you scroll down, there's, it says why and when I'm selling 80% of my crypto in 2025 and there's the link. Click on that, watch that video. Those are the indicators I'm personally using to take profits. Hopefully that should help. I love free rugs. When Ferrari, man, who wants a Ferrari? You got two bad knees. You think I wanna bend down to get in a Ferrari? I want a big truck. I already have a Dodge Ram, so I probably won't get anything new. FD White, there is the man right there. I made 300K by mistake last run. Of course it's on 80% because I was dying to have a new VC, there you go. That's why, again, watch that video from FD White, link in the description. He pretty much just goes like, this is what you have, you should think about doing as far as putting things out there so you can actually do the things you're supposed to do in the next bull run. It was a great video. And again, how many times have you heard the same thing? I diamond hands up, I diamond hands down. I mean, and people say, well, it works for Michael Saylor. That's true, but you're not Michael Saylor. I'm pretty sure you're not a billionaire. Maybe somebody is out there, I don't know. Maybe all of your houses are paid off. Maybe your Lambos are, you know, Scott Free. And you pay them, maybe all the lands in the real estate. Maybe your multi-billion dollar company is doing quite well and you don't need to sell Bitcoin. However, if you're one of those people who's like, you know what, I got credit card bills. You know what, I got these kids to put through school. You know what, I'd like to put food on the table. You know what, I got some debt. You know what, I'd like to invest maybe into some other hard assets like real estate, maybe land, maybe some business. And again, if you look at the white paper that I've talked about as ad nauseam, it's nine pages, it's for peer-to-peer transactions. So if you wanna take your Bitcoin and say, I would like a house, I would like a land. I would like to buy that business. Like, okay, we don't take Bitcoin, fine. What magic internet or paper money do you accept? Cash, dollars, great. I'll just exchange that for dollars. That's my transaction, there you go. So like to me, I just see it as that's how it goes. Now people will say, but it's a great store of value. But remember, it is a great store of value. But remember this, what was it? Just like we talked about with the bull markets, as everything goes up, let me just max this out. That doesn't look good. Let's do logarithmic. All right, that's better. We can see that, yes, everything continuously does go up for Bitcoin. And of course, a lot of it has to do with M2 money supply, that's a whole new video. But remember the time frames, as we coil, or as we, let's just take 2017, as we come up here, there's always a pullback. There's a pullback because we got way too overheated, right? And then it's like we coil and we coil and we coil up and we coil up. And then the more that we drop, the more that it explodes upward. But it always is a coil and a compression and an uncompression. And then we come down here and we coil and we coil and then we get down to 5,000 and we're so coiled up because the price is so undervalued and then we rock it up again. And it happens again and again and again. So I'm not saying that like when I get out and I sell 50 to 80% of my Bitcoin, it's not like I'm not gonna buy again. And I'm not trying to time the market, but I know how these things usually work. Unless somebody comes out, yeah, I could, unless somebody comes out and says, you know what, good news, all the central banks are buying Bitcoin and now the reserve world currency, then I probably wouldn't sell it. But past that, the technology has to catch up with Bitcoin and the narrative does. Even with this ETF coming in, I still think people are not gonna understand and not gonna get it. I think maybe moving on like 2030, then everybody understands. And then, of course, will be maybe a great time to hang on. I think this next bull market is gonna be ginormous. And it'll probably be the last one that will have that unregulated because that monster regulation is coming. So hold on. I could, but it gets sticky. I don't wanna do it. Rob, can you pick the next old killer? No, I have no idea which ones they are. There you go. Joe B. says I'm taking profit swing. Do that. Pretty simple. Darth Mike says FTY to be similar with a much smaller amount. I wrote it up and back down again in terms of actually let's sell this run. It happens, it happens the best of us. And see, that's what's great. Like for everybody here, the people that are coming when they hear the narrative of the having come in, when they come in, they're gonna be a lot different. And everybody that's here understands what's coming. They're not gonna have the emotional constraint to understand that at some point that maybe they actually should sell. And it's gonna be wild. And we're gonna try to help them, but they're not gonna listen because you get Bitcoin and altcoins the price you deserve. And that's it. Yeah, that wasn't there. Only diamond hands Bitcoin take profit sales for. Yeah, that's fine. See, there's different ways to do things. Some people say I'm gonna hold on to Bitcoin forever and just sell my alts. That's the way to do it. Linking with Nas. Ben Cowan and his partner were saying that 12K was still in the cards this year, yesterday morning. Hey, you know what? As much as we, first of all, who would have thought that this week was the week that we were gonna shoot up all the way to, I think we had 35,000 at some point. Never now. So can we say that 12K is out of the run? Who knows? Who knows? Something, you never know what could happen. That's just it. So Nas, here's the thing with me. And tell me if you guys aren't feeling the same way. When you woke up and you sell that portfolio up and you took a look at the prices, were you excited initially? But what was the next thought you probably thought to yourself? I should have probably bought more. How many here said that to themselves? If you did, and this does happen, down to 12K, can you imagine how the depreciation of the altcoin market would be? And how much you could actually load up? Now the question is, would you do it? That would you actually pull the trigger and be like, eh, probably go lower, so I'll wait? That's just it. So to me, like, I hope, it was him and Gareth. I saw that on their show. I always watch the shows, entertaining. And I was like, yeah, maybe. I never discount anything because I've been around long enough to realize that anything can happen. And that's it. Joby says, probably can we get a little pre-orderly network to succeed setting? When I had, I had the lead CTO on and the things that he talked about was pretty cool. One of the reasons why I thought it was pretty cool, too, is, okay, I'm gonna say it. Sweatcoin, yeah, collect have grown across everybody. So they implemented with Sweatcoin and in the app of the Sweatcoin wallet, you now are going to have a DEX that's integrated with Sweatcoin. And you're going to be able to use the coins that you earn by walking, which is 100% free. You're going to be able to use those for gas and or to swap any token that you want. And that could be USDC, that could be near, that could be anything that's in their decentralized exchange. So imagine that, if you're like, this piece of trash token, Sweatcoin, I like it. Well, then swap it for Ethereum or swap it for USDC or swap it for near or arbitrage or whatever you want. To me, I was like, now we're talking. That's great stuff. You want to make some money? Go walk around the block. Ah, cheers. Hey, does Tesla finance? Everybody's here. That's good. According to the amount of holder on the dumper, check out my video, The Art of Dumping. I think people understood it. And let's see. I think that's it. That's it. I think I answered everybody's question. Yes. All right, everybody. So this is the last stream for maybe this week. I'm traveling tomorrow and we have NFA Live with Ben. I'm in the Cryptoverse and Guy from Coin Bureau and that is on Thursday. That'll be on Ben's channel. And I know I will not have a video on Friday and maybe Saturday with a whole new green screen. So we'll go from there. Anyhow, everybody, thanks so much for stopping by. I appreciate you. Like this video, give it a thumbs up. Consider subscribing. Everything we talk about is time sensitive. But that's it for today. Thanks so much, everybody. And I'll see you guys on the next one, whenever that is. Good luck.
