 Welcome to Jalassette News, the top stories in crypto and a big amount of bite-sized pieces. Today just the thumbnail suggests there's some good news on the horizon and we really are in the right place at the right time. The problem is sometimes we just have to take a step back, not take ourselves too seriously and take a look what's going on around us as far as the big picture. So to do that we're going to first we're going to do a little update as far as like what happened with yesterday's video, a little bit of error on my part. We're going to take a look at who's actually getting into or on the block. We're going to take a look at how Brian Brooks, yeah that Brian Brooks from the OCC is now in the realm of Voyager as far as the brokerage Voyager, cryptos and digital assets and lastly we'll take a look at some pop culture and how Gwyneth Paltrow getting into crypto. So before we do all that first let's take a look at what is going on into the market. So today, another sideways days, I mean it's 0.35% up and all the different tokens are either sideways or a little bit up. I think Luna had a pretty big day so congratulations all you Luna holders. Not really too much going on for there but I really want to do is just get into today's or one of the top stories and one of the things that I need to really talk about is yesterday's video which we had it was all about the big mistake and I and I talk about how you know there's just one thing you really shouldn't do and what I did was I there was an old video featuring Nick Murray. Nick Murray if you don't know he's been in Wall Street for decades. He's been the investments game for like 50 plus years. He is the advisor to the advisors and what's crazy about it is that he's seen everything and been everywhere you know as far as like investments and he's still so optimistic and what makes him optimistic was really three parts and we talked about the other video actually there was supposed to be three parts where he talked about just look at the history just look at whatever going look at the trend line and the last part was the big mistake and for some reason I had cut it out so the big mistake in all honesty was on me so I want you to listen it's only one minute and it is and I've actually posted this on Twitter twice because it was so good this is the best investment advice I have ever gotten and when you listen to this think to yourself how many people try to make things so complex when it doesn't have to be that complex listen to a gentleman who has 50 plus years of experience just break it down in the simplest way you possibly can get it let's take a listen. The stock market in the United States in our lifetimes I mean since World War II has gone down an average of 30% an average of every five years kind of whether it needed to or not and what was the difference in all that time between investment success and investment failure I will argue that it it was the single mistake of mistaking the temporary declines for a permanent loss panicking out thereby creating the the permanent loss that you were that you said you were fleeing from right whereas if you had just sat there never mind adding to your positions which most people should be doing over most of their accumulating lifetimes if not all of their accumulating lifetimes but but put that aside put just if you just sat there the temporary decline will go away and it will and it will be then followed inevitably by a period of above average returns that's the cycle doesn't that make sense and this and like yesterday you'll see me had cut it out I want to say the same thing which is this it doesn't matter like it just it's the same thing he's talking about in that minute is the same thing we've been talking about here on the channel forever dollar cost average when in doubt zoom out don't spend more than you can actually afford to lose and just look at the big picture what's going on we know right now the market is not the greatest but just like nick had talked about things going to be okay because in the long run works out so let me know each thing about that in the comment section let's move on to our next piece we talk about look who's on the block and I think this is just one of those pieces where you have to take a look and step back and go okay well this is some of the good news that we've been waiting for that's already out there that I think we forget about because we're so focused in on what's happening in the market which is hey we didn't had 100,000 bitcoin hey we didn't hit a ethereum 10k so I know it's disheartening but again I still think we're in the right place at the right time just gonna take a little bit more more time so the first thing this was a tweet sent out by blackworks if you don't follow them they're at blackworks on twitter and just talked about hey these are the businesses and industries that are getting into crypto and to prove it here's the different postings that they've had for all their jobs the first one is reddit reddit is hiring a senior engineer to help them build an nft platform for millions of people to trade nfts this they state that nfts will play a key role so that's one that's pretty good I think uh a lot of us have heard about reddit so that's very nice also facebook meta looks to integrate crypto and payments and of course yes they try to do uh their their libra that failed and then dm I don't know where that's going but it looks like they're probably getting the hint that they can't control everything so hopefully they're getting more crypto the manager will be responsible for redesigning amputation of process that that support payments and cryptocurrency so even you don't if you think well they're just going to use their own thing sure but look at this visa is all in on crypto they have a partnership with usdc they have they have a posting for the director will be responsible for creating new revenue streams via new crypto products maybe visas coming out with their own thing also be responsible for seeking interesting investment opportunities also walmart walmart is hiring a crypto expert lead to lead its crypto strategy and a product creation job also hints that walmart will seek to invest in crypto related companies and there's the ad right there digital currency crypto currency product lead blockworks i mean sorry amazon amazon aims to help increase crypto adoption job indicates that the expert will work with financial institutions and help them drive change in crypto job role hints of the firm will also help companies custody their digital assets which is no surprise because amazon likes to do everything that they get their hands into fidelity trillion dollar asset manager they've been around for quite some time and they've been in crypto now they're actually looking to hire more people apple looks to hire an expert to lead an alternative payments partnership candidate should be experienced and working with digital wallets what does that mean to you the firm ceo recently disclosed that he owned crypto so why wouldn't apple be getting in on it and then also jp morgan i'm just gonna skip that nobody cares nikey is hiring for the metaverse and they've already actually gone to a company to scan and put their a representation of their products of shoes into the metaverse i forgot the name recreate i forgot but they've actually already done it but and they're gonna actually get more into it virtual material designer too or as it states more for the metaverse plays and that's it for what we see right here but just remember this it's not just those companies think about all the banks all the hedge fund managers all the different people that have got into it that just three years ago we're laughing at us laughing at us and now here they are trying to join us and you know what i'm happy i'm glad they're here and i'm ecstatic of what this is so again i know that we sometimes we we see a little bit too narrow if we just kind of zoom out and see how things are going i think things are looking pretty good let me just think about that in the comment section let's move on to our second to last piece i think this is pretty big bitfury ceo brian brooks joins board of voyager digital if you don't know this guy uh he is the former occ officer of the com troll of the currency for the united states and if anybody can help you guide and navigate through regulations and really is a smart individual to really get crypto where it should go this is the guy and guess who snagged him well voyager did for some reason he was with at binance us for a little bit and that did not last long i would love to figure out exactly why didn't work it was a vague response but you know sometimes you just go to where quality goes so this is where they stayed former acting comptroller of the currency helps to build firm out or voyager its platform globally and navigate the regulatory environment here's what's going on brooks joins the board as an independent non executive director and his appointment is effective immediately not next year right now and he states as one of only two publicly traded crypto first trading platforms with exponential funded account growth of 23 times this year voyager has already proven in the marketplace so says brooks i didn't say x x occ did the next challenge for the company and when i look forward to being part of is building out the platform for global scale and navigate the regulatory environment in the us and beyond brooks became the ceo of bit fury i just another company mining application a6 operating of money data setters in october and now he's joining over to voyager i think he's actually having dual dual rules and he stepped down from the as a ceo let me know in the comments this is how i read it uh he added on his profile page that and this is pretty interesting about again where brian brooks is because it's not just like he just sat in a position and do anything here's what he did he led federal efforts to modernize the national bank charter expand the scope of market place lending partnerships reform and modernize the community reinvestment act and define the scope of permissible crypto activities while in the position he also launched project reach partnership of large bank ceo's fintech founders minority deposit institutions and civil rights organizations to correcting barriers to financial inclusion for underserved americans brian brooks is extremely well versed in crypto banking and legal and regulatory aspects of crypto voyager chairman philip etan said and finally he states he can assist voyager in the next phase of our growth around the globe especially as we expand into nfts defy and the metaverse so look i know some people have been have had problems with voyage in the past we talk about growing pains i do my best to reach out to voyager and get those things rectified but um you know in all honesty things have actually been going pretty well for them for quite some time even though there's a little bit gaps but nobody's perfect however what i do like about voyager and you have to pay attention to this is look at the different projects that not only have a good team but continue to grow and actually expand what they're trying to do in the best way possible so not only do you have a solid team in the beginning but you're like okay we're going to do this we're actually bringing these people here we're going to actually grow into the eu we're actually going to have this this different program that we have as far as like the token performance program and just take a look at where things are going and how they actually build on improve so let me know what you think about that in the comment section and lastly this is just for funsies gwyneth paltrow is in is now into crypto but just like um you had uh megan v stallion and a couple of other celebrities they're working with cashf and it states uh here this is from gwyneth's uh youths or twitter account buying crypto often has often felt exclusionary in order to democratize who can participate at cash app is now making easy to get bitcoin i'm giving out half a million dollars with a bitcoin for the holidays check that out follow that cash app plus drop your cash tag below with cash app gifting to enter and that's what's going on so look i know right now this is not how we wanted to end 2021 but in all honesty i think we're still in the right place at the right time and just like nick in the very beginning talked about don't mistake these short-term dips for long-term depletion of funds really in essence is what he's saying look at the big picture and look what we're going and look how things are building anyhow that's it for today so look i know it was quick a lot of things going on but if you like today's video give it a thumbs up also consider subscribing i think we talk about our time sensitive and that's it for today so thanks so much for watching i appreciate it and i'll see you on the next one
