 Welcome to Jalassette News. Take a top stories and crypto currency in Jalassette's and break them down into bite size pieces today. It's going to be a concerning questionnaire or question that I got from one of my subscribers. And really what it comes down to is everybody who has been getting scammed or has gotten scammed recently or is going to be scammed in the future. I need to answer this question and really this comes down to is what would you do if you got scammed out of everything? Well, I can't tell you what you should do but I can just tell you what I would do in these situations. So let me break into this real quick. This was a message came to me from a subscriber via email. He says, Hey Dan, thanks for your videos. Very interesting. I'm Simon and I'm telling you what I dare not tell my wife. First of all, this is already starting bad. I'll just tell you that. He goes on to say, I'm in UK and I've sent out asking people and they all ignore me. I just had the feeling you might waste one minute of your time answering yes or no, as it may affect my family's future. I had, and this is the keyword here, I had 1.5 bitcoin, which I bought in 2017 for $1,500. I was told best to hold till 2021 when they started crashing late 2018, which was fantastic. And this is the thing that I've always talked about. It's not about how much you make is how much you keep. So Simon here did the exact right thing, right? Got in 2017, he held on to it the whole way, all the way to right now. So good for you, Simon. But there was a travesty afoot and this is what happened. Anyways, after listening to a video you had a couple of weeks ago where you mentioned Voyager, I looked in my old tracer and found 1,400 of them. It's pretty good. But for some reason I couldn't get them from the MyEther wallet on my tracer to an exchange. I went on Telegram. First mistake right there. I'm just going to tell everybody about Telegram. It is the biggest cesspool I've ever seen. It is worse than YouTube. I know people like, oh, you know, it's awesome. You go, is it? No, it's not. So it's just, there's just so many things out there that are just a huge amount of scams. I think people are used to the YouTube scams, thanks in part to this channel, other people who have actually pitched in. But Telegram is a whole different animal. And it's why it's one of the reasons why I don't use Telegram. I don't have myself on Telegram. I just will not use it because I think it's a cesspool. So, and again, in the comments, you can say whatever you want to and you say, no, it's great and people, sure. All right. So I went on Telegram and asked for help and advice. A chap came on. Nice from the UK. They're saying he was the real Max Kaiser. Real Max Kaiser. And he could help me. Anyways, I'm sure you know the rest. I really don't understand things. He sent me to a website and I put in my 24 words and voila, my family's savings disappeared. On my tracer, it shows exactly the address and where they went. Is there anything I can do? Please spare me the time to say no, then I'll put it all behind me. But you'll be the first to answer me. I'm not looking for financial offerings. Just fine. Just finality with hope that you say yes, I may be able to get them back. I'm devastated and hate lying to my wife. Thank you. So here's what I'm going to, I actually wrote him back. You know, said Simon, no, that's it. That was a thing. No, you can't get it back. When you give somebody else your past phrases, your private keys and everything else, that's gone. It's gone. He will never see it again. And I don't care to what authorities you reported to. I mean, they'll make a note of it. That's great. But who cares? You lost all your money. So I'm just going to tell you like this. That's what I say on this channel time and time again. It doesn't matter how smart you are. It doesn't matter how well versed you think you can always get scammed. So treat everything like the scam and your life will be a hell of a lot easier and hell of a lot better. And I will just also say this, I get emails weekly where people who've gotten scammed, they said, Rob, I even listened to your show and I hear you in the back of my head saying, don't do this, but I still do this. There is some kind of reptilian part in your brain where it's like, you know what, I got to make a bunch of money. And that's not the case. You just got to be an investor. And I'm going to show you, this is, well, I told someone, I go, look, this is what's going on. You know, you're screwed. You screwed out your money. But this is, I told them, I'm going to answer your question in detail tomorrow about how I would get it all back if I had to start from scratch right now. So this is what I got. First of all, let's do a quick review. We've all seen this on the channel. If you're new, welcome. This might be new to you. So we should just talk about this in under two minutes. First of all, everything goes in four year cycles with cryptocurrencies assets. It is not the traditional stock market. Traditional stock market is a lot different. Everything goes in four year cycle because of the halving, which is Bitcoin. Every four years, everything gets cut in half as far as the supply of what the miners can actually push out or get in mind. So every time that there is a halving, the first one happened in 2012 because Bitcoin was created around 2009. 2012, we added halving. And this is what the price was. The next year, you'll have an all-time high, which is in 2013, the first one. Then you'll have a massive dip, which is in 2014. Then you'll have a reset. Same thing happened in 2016, halving, 2017, big all-time high. Then you had a massive dip as in 2018, and you had a reset in 2019. Now we're going to go into 2020. We just had a halving in May 2020. We're getting to an all-time high. And you see what this looks like. This is what the graph looks like right now as we look at it because it's, this says 29,000 because I made this around January 7th, January 6th, somewhere around. But in reality, this is how we should look at it. This is what's going on because it's just like every other halving here. This 2021, this is our all-time high. And this is where we're going to see massive gains. So the best time to invest, oh, excuse me, the best time to invest, put this in a different place, the best time to invest is during the halving or right after the dip and a reset when everything's boring and it's moving sideways. Here's the thing though. This is the second best time. The second best time is during a halving. So what am I talking about? Or right after halving in the all-time high. So this is what we got. With this, I put out a price prediction. And this price prediction was all my different holdings that I had and what I believe it to be. And we took, and there's one in particular Voyager, we took a look at Metcast Law. We really broke it down. We took a look at fractals for Bitcoin, Ethereum. It doesn't matter. This is just what I personally believe. Your Pini may vary. That's okay. These are the most conservative numbers that I can possibly get. Some people will say that Bitcoin is going to go to a million. Some people say 400,000. Some people say Ethereum is going to go to, I don't know anymore. Tyler Winklevoss said it's going to go to 75,000. Sure. Maybe. I don't know. I'm not a genius. So I certainly am not Notre Dame. But these were my predictions on January 7th. This is what the prices were. You can go and watch that video right now. Here is my prediction plus the supply. So I started with Chainlink. I said with Chainlink, you got about, it's going to be $35 by the end of 2021, somewhere around there. And it's got a billion circulating or max supply. Cardano, it says me $3, state at $10, and the supply and blah, blah, blah. Okay. Then I gave the probability. And this was all based on the information that we have as far as who's buying it up, what kind of supply they have, what kind of issues they're having, what kind of team they've built, and everything else. So I give you a probability where on a scale of zero, where it's not a chance in hell it's going to happen, all the way to 10, which means I definitely would say it is definitely going to happen. So with Bitcoin, $150,000, sure. I think that's pretty conservative. Ethereum, I gave it an eight. I talked about the problems that they're having right now with moving from ETH 1.0 to 2.0 and staking and all the fees, which are absolutely ridiculous right now. Chainlink I talked about, because it's one of the few oracles out there and everybody's, a lot of people are using it, everybody's using it, but I mean, you're looking at 90% of the people are using it. And on down the line. And then what I added in today was a thing called gain. This is how much it would increase from the price point from roughly on my prediction at that point to what it can go to. So if you take 40 times 4, it's about 160K. So it's about a 4x gain, right? 38K, around 40K, 150K, sure. Ethereum could be about a 10x, because I think it's going to go to 10K. I think it could go between 5 and 10K. I do have some reservations about Ethereum these days. I don't know if it can really do it. Look, to go to ETH 2.0, it's going to take at least a year to get everything going. And right now, there's a lot of problems with it. And if you're using, I just did a poll and I asked people, how much have the fees affected you from using decentralized exchanges, like one inch, like Uniswap, and all those different places. And the vast majority, 75% plus, are saying, I don't use that anymore, because the fees are too much. Some people are like, I don't really care, because the fees don't make so much money. I'm like, sure, but you're getting crushing fees. And if you are a big complainer of Coinbase, how can you complain about Coinbase and their fees, but not complain about this other thing? It doesn't make any sense to me. So these are just gains. And we just take a look at what it is. Now, the big one for me is Voyager. And we took a real deep dive. You can take a look at that link at the end. Again, we took a look at the network effects, Metcalfe's law, different press releases that have been going on. Talk to the CEO. This is, I think, the big play. And if you're looking for a utility token of what it can actually do, look no farther than Binance, and what happened with that, it wasn't much when it came out. And all of a sudden, it's around $45 right now. So the Voyager token, when I made this price prediction, was at $0.29. Right now it's at $1.17, about 10 days later. So we're on our way. That's all I can tell you. And that's what I'm looking at. So Simon, let's break it down with Simon. So Simon, he lost, because he spent $1,500 in Bitcoin. And that was one and a half Bitcoin in 2017. So he must have got it very early. And he got $1.5. So good job, Simon. And then for somehow, he got Voyager at $1,400. Or he had $1,400 of Voyager. And I don't know when he bought him. I have no idea. But he said it's old. So it might not have been $1,400. Because right now it's about $1 for one Voyager. So I just say, yeah, okay, for $1. So $1,500 plus $1,400, it's about $3,000. All right, $2,900, whatever. I like round numbers. Math is hard. So that's what it was. Now, that's what it was that he actually spent. But in reality, his today's value is $60,000. So I'm going to talk about risk versus reward. And really what it comes down to is this. If I want the biggest bang for my buck, I want to minimize risk as much as possible. You can go out there and find those small cap gems. And you can put whatever you want to those types of things. But they might do nothing. They might go up a thousandfold. I have no idea. I am not that guy. If you want to look for somebody who's going to give you a bunch of small vocab gems, there is a plethora of YouTubers out there and go on Telegram. They got a ton of different projects you can listen to and, you know, sure. So that's not me. I'm just going to give you what I think. So if I had to look at everything, I would just look and say, you know what, I think I'm going to take a look at the probabilities. And I'm just going to go for the 10s and the 9s. And I'm just going to tell you right now, there is Bitcoin is going to be enormous. I was just talking to somebody who deals with institutional players. And he has been getting requests for information from small businesses, not big businesses like MicroStrategy, not big businesses like Galaxy Digital and all these different publicly traded companies, small businesses. We're talking about and I'm not even going to tell you what they do. I can just tell you that they make a modest amount. They have around, you know, 100K to 500K to sling around, not a ton of dough, but they are the ones that are saying, hey, we got your information. We would like to invest into Bitcoin. We would need assistance. We are only looking for Bitcoin. That is all we want to do. We are not going to trade. We need to put our capital into something that will appreciate and we're looking at Bitcoin. And he has gotten two requests from very small businesses. So unlike if this is just one instance that I know of, how much is really going on out there? So as far as probability, you can't go along with Bitcoin. The problem with Bitcoin is it's not going to go up a ton. You're only looking at a 4X conservative. So okay. So I would look at the probability for Bitcoin. And the only other 10 that I have is Theta. And the reason why I said, where is it? Yeah. The reason why I said Theta, if you're not familiar with Theta, first of all, shout out to Digital Dave at Crazy for Cryptos for turning me on to it. You have to understand that Theta is not competing with YouTube. What it is doing is it is allowing unused bandwidth to be used for streaming services. And that has only accelerated thanks in part due to coronavirus. So how many of you are now working from home? How many of you are doing Zoom meetings? How many times have you seen it when sports wasn't even available? And what did you see on ESPN? You saw esports. You saw people playing games. And that is a massive industry. So when I think about what has real world use potential right now, I see Theta and I'm like, this is so undervalued. This is so undervalued. So I gave it a 10. As time moves on, and even Facebook has come out and said, look, people are, you don't have to come back. You can go anywhere you want to and work. And we'll still pay you. So guess what people are doing with even California? Because they can work from anywhere. And guess what they're going to need when they have to work anywhere they need bandwidth. And that's where I think Theta might come in. Anyhow, just a theory. So I got two 10s. And what else have we got here? And I got two nines. And the nines that I have are Chainlink and Voyager. We talked about why that is. So right here it says 100x, but now it's like $1. So it's really only 30x. So sorry if I didn't get into that. So for Simon, to make him back his $3,000, again, I can't give you financial advice. But what I would do if I needed to make $3,000 by the end of this year, that's pretty simple. I will just say, before I give you this, people give up too fast in the world. They have a failure and it sets them back and they just say, well, it didn't work out for me and they go. And something's right with me or wrong with me, whatever you want to say it. But I've always told my wife the same thing. I'm not in the business of losing money. And I'm not here to lose anything. I'm here to keep fighting and keep going until I figure it out or I make it. So right here, if it was me, I wouldn't have stopped. First of all, I told Simon, definitely tell your wife, don't lie to your wife, tell her right now what happened because it's only going to get worse. So what I would have said is, I would have said, hey, I just lost $3,000, but don't worry, I'm going to get it back because we're going to do X, Y and Z. And that's it. And then she was like, well, that's what you do. So right now, if you're looking at this, Simon, if you're watching, again, I can't give you financial advice, but it's all about perseverance and not really giving up. So this is the time like I just talked about. If you want to give up, that's fine. You know, you can go away. I could go away, stop it. But I'm telling you, as time goes on in life, you will only regret the things you did not do. And you will not regret the things that you did. Usually, that's how it goes. As far as like, if you listen to any of those different stories from the elderly, they have always said the same thing. I only have regrets on the things that I didn't do, not the things that I did. So I would not, I just couldn't let it over my head. So I would just, I would invest in Bitcoin and Theta, Chainlink and Voyager. And the question would be, well, how much would you do? Well, if you, I just dollar cost average and you got two, you got, you got three options. But if you, if I just got burned like that, I don't want to take a big lump because maybe all my, all my money's gone, all my money's gone. Okay, well, we're going to start again. Dollar cost average, I'm going to put $25. I'm going to do that. Even I just did this per week. So $25 per week, that's $100 per month. And 11 months, we're looking at $1,100, right? So just, just that alone. So if I do $1,100, and I put it in between Bitcoin, Theta, Chainlink and Voyager, Voyager's got a 30X, you got a 10X here, 10X here, 4X here. So $1,100, let's just do like a conservative type of thing. You're looking at around, let's just say like an 8X. You're looking at $10,000, $10,000 of $1,100, not too bad. You can tell your wife, hey, look, I lost three, but we gained 11. And I think things are only going to go up and you just exit strategy out. That's one option, right? A little bit more difficult is this. Let's say I need to get that $60K back. Well, again, what I would do, and actually, I will just say this, these 8s right here, if I was really cautious, I wouldn't even do anything with the 8s. I would just stick with Bitcoin, Theta, Chainlink and Voyager, because that's what I feel has the most probability. Again, risk-first reward. Now, if I want to get a little bit dangerous, I would just do this. I'd be like, look, I need to put more money in because I lost so much. I learned my lesson, but I know where this market is going. I see the four-year cycles. I see the probabilities. I see the gains that could be had. What I would do, honestly, I would, this is just me, because I am who I am, I could still dollar-cost average every day and just find those dips. But I like this new strategy that me and Diddy talked about. There's a video over there on DanTeachersCrypta.com. It's right there. It's his video. It's his website. It's 100% free. And he said, just take your lump sum of whatever you have, if you still have any money, and just dump it in and just do it one every two weeks. So let's say that, again, if I had 12,000 bucks, somehow I find it, right? I sell my kidney. What I would do is I put $2,000 down two day, and I would spread it around, around all these different tokens, however you want to do it. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, almost. So I'd probably put like 100 bucks in each. And then in two more weeks, 100 bucks in each. Two more weeks, 100 bucks in each. Until I get the six weeks, and I had $12,000 in. If I had $12,000 in, and let's just say that they 10X, conservatively, conservatively, right? I had $12,000 in, that's $120,000. Then I go to my wife and go, see, I'm not in the business of losing money. We lost 60, but we went to 120. And that would be it. The thing is this, don't dump it all in in one whole shot because we're going to see peaks and valleys and dips and everything else. And that's just how it is. If you take a look at charts, you'll see in 2017, you'd have like a 20% drop. It's like a stair step. Goes up 20%, up 20%, 100%. And then, so just be careful with that. But I think this is definitely be able to do. Now, my next question is this, Simon lives in the UK. If I live in the UK, I'm in the exact same position that Simon is. Well, I can get Bitcoin. Theta, Voyager and Chainlink, where the heck do I get that? Well, first of all, this is going to answer some questions for a lot of people because I keep getting this. If I'm in the UK, I can use Binance. If I can use Binance, I can get Voyager. What does Voyager call it there? It's not VGX, it's VQX. And that is the ticker VQX for Bitcoin, $1.18. And then somewhere around here, it should say Voyager. But that is what it is, trust me. That's what we got. So whatever reason, VQX is Voyager. Great. Now, here's the next thing. What about Theta? Where can I get Theta? Well, again, I can also get that on Voynance, Binance. So not too bad. But here's another thing. Let's say I am who I am and I am still in the States. So I'm stuck and I can't use Binance. What do I do? Well, if I want to find Voyager, I go to Uniswap. Again, the fees suck. Hopefully, they go down. But that is your only option if you are in the United States and you're trying to get Voyager. So excuse me. If you want to get Voyager and you're in New York, outside of New York, you just download the Voyager app and buy Voyager through the Voyager app. Super simple. If you're stuck in crappy New York, then you got to use Uniswap because you can't get Binance and you can't get Voyager and they just screw you over. So how do I do that? Well, I did this already, but let me do it again. So if I do Ethereum 2, let me select a token. If I look at Voyager, Voyager is not there. That's VGX, right? So what I want to do is I want to go to Manage. I want to go to CoinGecko list. I want to turn that on. And let me go back. And let me look for Voyager again, VGX. And here is Voyager right there. So now I can use it. So if I'm using Uniswap, I can find Voyager. And here's the next part. What about Theta? Well, Theta is a little bit more different. So if you want to look to find out how Theta, you can actually buy Theta, go to DanTeachesCrypt.com, 100% free website. And then when you get logged in, all you got to do is go down to How Do I? I'm going to click on How Do I. And there is a video which tells you exactly how to buy Theta by using a certain exchange called SimpleSwap. And I got all the links right there for you. So that is it. That is it for today. So hopefully it answers the question about what you would do or what I would do. Again, not financial advice, but this is what I would do as far as like if someone screwed me out all the money. Next, I have to do a video about SIM swaps and how to avoid all that stuff using Proton Gmail. And I want to do a video of what we just talked about quickly, which was all these different small businesses doing requests for information for Bitcoin, which I found fascinating because if you all only listen to the channel, I've always talked about businesses are coming, especially if you do not just Treasuries, but if you do allocating Bitcoin for retirement funds and just putting like one to two percent and those types of things. And if you do that globally, I mean, where would Bitcoin be? Well, we're looking at trillions and trillions of market cap. All right. So that's it for today. Thanks so much. If you like these types of videos, I'm going to pop up on your left and right. And that is all for today. So I will see you on the next one whenever that is. Bye.
