 Welcome to the last set news to get top stories in crypto. That big amount of bite-sized pieces today. Just like the thumbnail suggests, there's a lot of things going on behind the scenes, which people need to be aware of about how great the crypto market is actually doing, as opposed to what is being said. So first up, bullish cryptocurrency exchange prepares to launch and go public on the New York Stock Exchange. And this is going to be spearheaded by one of the former presidents of the New York Stock Exchange. And you have to make mention of this, is that this exchange is not just a general rule of exchange like a coin base or like a Kraken or something like that. They're going to be combining the best aspects of DeFi, as far as like gaining yield, the exchanges, the liquidity, and bring it all together so big money players can actually get into it. And this is just one story where you really need to pay attention to. Because if not, you're going to get fooled. And we talked about this yesterday about how these different institutions and entities out there, they want to make it seem we're on shaky footing when in actuality, we're on the precipice of really going mainstream and being big as far as the crypto market. And this is one of the stories that we talk about. So we'll take a look at that. And then also on the fact that I know that the market is very boring right now, but this is when all the money is made. I'll explain that as part of the last parts. And this is when we really should be front running all these different big people like Scott Menard from Guggenheim and JP Morgan, all the ones that are spreading fud and whatnot. And lastly, I just want to talk real quick about Graham Steven and his channel being deleted and what's going on and how he can prevent that, which is the same thing that I did to prevent my channel from being deleted. And we'll talk about that last, but first, take a look what's going on into the market. So today it is the 10th, 11th, geez, 9 a.m. I'll pass the Texas time. Look, usually every Sunday there's a big dump, but ever since the Bitcoin miners have gone out of China and all the different Asian markets have been shackled with what's going on and not being able to trade, we don't see too much of a dump on a Sunday. Sometimes it comes on a Monday or Tuesday and it's just like a little bit of a pullback, but Sundays are actually pretty decent and everything's just kind of going a little bit sideways. So market cap is 1.41 trillion. So we may have, you know, got a hundred billion here and there, but who cares? That's not what we're here for. We're here for the 10 trillion market cap. Let's just be honest. And the difference, I'll take a look if there's anything up today. Right now Bitcoin price is almost $34,000. Let me blow this up so you can see it. 24 hour change. We've got Bitcoin 0.53, 1.66 for Ethereum. Anything big? I don't really care about the small stuff. Tether, nobody cares. 2%, 1%. No, not really. So enjoy a Sunday as a trade sideways. Ooh, tear a Luna up. So what are you going to do? 7% for Cosmos interoperability. Gains favor. All right. So that's what's going on the market. Again, not a big deal. I know it's boring and this is when nobody really cares, but this is when you really need to pay attention. And which leads me to my first point, the bullish exchange on the New York stock exchange. So real quick, I'm not going to go through the whole article. It's pretty self-explanatory, but just some main points. This bullish exchange announced its plan to go public on the NYSE Friday through a merger with Far Peak Acquisition Corporation. Far Peak is a SPAC or a Special Purpose Acquisition Company. You're going to hear that word a lot. So just get used to it. Special Purpose Acquisition Company, and they do a lot of great things to acquire and get things as far as publicly traded stuff. And this was a quote, bullish plans to launch a revolutionary, regulated crypto exchange that offers deep predictable liquidity for investors to generate yield from their digital assets. What does that mean? Get that in a second. Far Peak CEO, Thomas Farley, a former New York stock exchange president, will become the CEO of bullish and block one CEO, Brendan Blumer. Blumer, I don't know. Will be appointed as chairman. And just real quick, remember this old adage, it's not what you know, it's who you know. And Thomas here probably knows a lot of people with a lot of deep pockets. So I think this is a match made in heaven. We'll see how it all works out. But the thing that interests me is just about what he said in this interview. And we're going to go over two sound clips, ones a minute, ones like 45 seconds. I just want you to listen to what he says and how different it is. And also take a listen as to where he thinks crypto and digital assets are going. This was the most telling for me as to where we are going. Remember, former president of the New York Stock Exchange is talking. Let's take a listen to what this guy actually says, because I guarantee you a lot of people are listening to what he's saying. I mean, for your viewers, this is an opportunity to invest early in a digital asset market structure business. I believe it had a lot of rewards. I'm going in as CEO of this business full time. Certainly any business with significant potential worth also has significant risks. And I encourage your viewers to study those as well. But I think this is a big idea Look, digital assets are here to stay. The smartest people in the space are saying they're here to stay and we're going to grow and build as different problems are solved. That's essentially what he's saying. So when all these different other people are like, ah, it's going to go to nothing, it's going to go to zero, it's going to be a crash. To me, if you're looking at the small swings day to day, yes, this is very stressful. Yes, there's a big difference between one day 20 to 40%. That's not why why you should be here. And I can't give you investment advice. I'm just this investment opinion. So I should really have said, this is why I'm here. I'm just here to invest and hold on for the long term because I think this is like, you know, just like how we had the internet back in the day, just like how blockbuster fell the wayside and we had Netflix come up. And here we are with a huge disruptor in the industry. As far as everything we can probably think of crypto and digital assets. So I will not interrupt. Let me let this guy speak some more. The hearing talent is going into digital assets. Digital assets are solving very important problems. Anybody that tells you they know exactly how it's going to turn out is lying or delusional. But in general, you're going to see more and more interesting use cases, more and more dollars going into the space and being able to provide predictable liquidity with a $9 billion balance sheet and teaming up with the, you know, this visionary entrepreneur who I refer to feels like feels like a really great opportunity to me. Brandon Hash and viewers view bullish in relation to the companies they may be more familiar with, like a Coinbase or Binance, etc. Yeah. So bullish is really focused on passing a lot of the beneficial interest to those that actually provide the underlying liquidity that creates the network effects of exchanges. As Tom mentioned, we're combining kind of the market architecture of DeFi-based concepts and bringing that to the high performance central limit order book. So we're kind of kind of bringing together the third party bids and asks you would normally find on traditional centralized exchange, but then augmenting it with that deep liquidity that acts as a portfolio rebalancing function for those that are depositing into them. So right there, can you imagine if you were traditional money and you're trying to get into cryptocurrency, like, I don't really know about this stuff, these exchanges and there's hacks and there's different things and I don't really get it. They're like, well, more present New York Stock exchange is in here and I'm not talking about yield and getting that and providing liquidity. Well, I do that as far as a market maker, maybe I should get into this. It's just that simple. I mean, really if you think about it, now there's a long ways to go, but I think this is definitely a step in the right direction. I'm excited this is actually happening. So yeah, providing liquidity, it's not like Coinbase or Binance is, well, Binance does it a little bit. And then of course Coinbase says Coinbase earn or whatever they call it. But yeah, if you're looking to gain liquidity and you have a massive amount of money, I would just go into crypto because it seems like everybody's getting into it anyhow. So this might be the next big pull for FOMO and investors. And then lastly, I want to talk about, this is the last piece that's going to fast forward to 250 and right around here. And what this is is about, we talked about this in the channel. I know people don't like it, but it's true. We need regulatory clarity and this is why. Just take a listen. It's a non-blockchain company such that can't simply just list an ERC-20 Ethereum compliant governance tokens, get the whole pain of going public. Was that ever thought in your mind, Brendan, that there is a way of raising money without using the traditional financial markets? Absolutely. And it's a great question. As you mentioned, the crypto thesis is all about allowing people to have economic exposure to the projects that they're associated with. And so that was really important to us. And that's why we're going public, simultaneous with our launch. But it comes to why did we choose to actually do this on the NYSE as opposed to just issue a token? There's a lot of regulatory uncertainty around the status of some of these tokens, which creates some jurisdictional hurdles and exclusions of certain types of parties, and a lot of just regulatory uncertainty for the company, but also the investors. So we thought that this was a tried and true avenue that would unlock new types of capital for the business, but give retail investors the most protection and access to holding a piece for our company. Yeah. So I mean, that really just all comes out of that. Like, if there was regulatory clarity, I bet a lot more businesses would really get into it and go, oh, we can do this and this and this because we know exactly where we stand. We have equal footing. Nobody wants to start a new business. Then all of a sudden you get sued. It's like going, okay, I'm going to start a fast food restaurant and we'll call it McDowell's. And then like McDonald's is like, no, you can't do that. Well, we have the golden arcs, not the golden arches. You're like, no, there's regulatory clarity here. I mean, as far as like like trademarks and franchises, you can't do that. And of course that would protect a lot of people. It's just, it's a, it's not a great example. But you know what I mean? Like if there is more regulatory clarity about what is a commodity, CFTC, what is the security, the SEC, and what is a currency office of the Comptroller of currency, then maybe you can actually figure it out as far as businesses and get things going, get things started. That is just my two cents, which leads me to my next point. I think that this is a step in the right direction. And when we take a look at what's going on, it's a good thing that these are happening. But again, we take a look at what's going on around us. We talked about this yesterday about how these entities try to fool you because they're trying to bring this price back, I believe, and this is just a guesstimate, about what they could actually get or dip their toes into. Look, I mean, would you want to buy Bitcoin at 64,000? Wouldn't it be great if you just buy it at 10,000? That'd be pretty cool, right? Well, it's hard for me and you to do that. But it's not too hard for like a Scott Menard over there at Guggenheim to say, hey, there's no reason to own Bitcoin. It's kind of, it's kind of ridiculous. Also, it's a, it's a tulip bubble that he just talked about recently, which is very odd because we talked about this yesterday is that he also said five months ago that he believes cryptocurrency could go as high as 600,000. He's talking about Bitcoin. And he told Bloomberg that it could be right now it's worth 400,000. This was months ago. And then, of course, now this is recently. I don't, I believe one of the reasons is because they want to pull that price back and they're not dumb. They're pretty smart money. They've been in this game for a while. They can manipulate things. That's just how it goes. They manipulate markets as far as like precious metals. Speaking of which, JP Morgan comes out and says, hey, this grayscale Bitcoin unlock, which is going to happen July 19th to the 28th, actually a little bit before then. But they're like, it's going to drop dramatically. It's going to just really just mess with the market. $10,000 incoming. And I try to do this on the channel every time is that you have to understand with grayscale, they're selling their shares. They're unlocking the shares of the Bitcoin trust. It's kind of like an ETF, but not really, and they're not selling any Bitcoin. So don't fall for that. Don't fall for the fud of what Scott Menard talks about. Don't fall for that stupid China fud where all the miners are getting out of there. Thank God they're getting out of there. Come to Texas. We got a great state. And you take a look at the other things. That's why I think things are going pretty well. And then this leads me to my next point. The market's boring. So we just saw that everything's kind of choppy and moving sideways. That's what, look the institutions, that's what they want. They want just to move sideways and not go parabolic so everybody can get in and raise the price. They don't want that. They want it to go down. They either want it to go sideways or preferably down. And this, my friends, is really where all the money is made. And I've said this before, and it falls on deaf ears because as the market slows down, so does my channel and so do people listening to crypto people like myself. They're like, this sucks. This is so boring. And I'm trying to shake people like this is when it's made. You don't make a bunch of money when, you know, in the height of the bull run, when it's all maxed out, you're all time high. That's where you get screwed and you actually buy at the top and you fomo in and just all goes down the hill. So really in all honesty, we got a front run. We have to front run these guys. All these institutions, this is when the money is made, moving sideways. This was in 2016, 2017, 2019 and 20. I didn't get to invest in 2016 because I wasn't, I didn't really realize what was going on, but I invested towards the top like everybody knows in this channel. But as things move sideways, I made a ton of money, a ton of money, just dollar cost averaging when everything dropped down at the ground. I wasn't a great investor, but I learned one thing and that is never buy at the top. And usually the ones that make the most of my money are the ones that just dollar cost average, value cost average, or just get into the middle. And if you don't know what I'm talking about, just go this website. Dan, the thing that spends them on my head all the time, Dan teaches crypto. It's 100% free. I made it 100% free. I made it so anybody can get into it and understand exactly what crypto and digital assets are and how to be a little bit more smarter of an investor. This is only investment opinion, not investment advice. And I hope people will actually listen to me this time. And that's when money is made. So it's either when it's choppy or it's kind of going up a little bit, but that's the best time. So let me just think about it in the comment section. Hopefully you're here and dollar cost averaging like I am, but that's up to you. And then lastly, I just want to just really quickly and I don't really, I don't really watch this guy, but apparently like millions of people do. So good for him. So there was this video by Andrei, I can't say his last name, but he's got a lot of subscribers too. Anyhow, and he just talked about how Graham here is going to lose his channel because of all the different, let me see if I can find it. And you probably have seen these comments, all the different spam comments. Not like this. That looked like this or something like this. And you'll see it in the, in the comment section like, Hey, you want to talk and whatever else. So if you noticed in my channel, we don't see that. You don't see that. I mean, you'll see it like for like maybe 30 seconds and it gets wiped away. And a lot of people don't get it. Even on my old videos, you don't see it too much. And this was a huge problem for me three months ago or so. And I had actually asked people to what their resolution was. Nobody had an idea, but then I was reached out by a company, actually a couple of guys, and they said, Hey, we can, we can fix this for you because that's what we do. That's what we're, we're going to start it up and see if we can do it. And it eliminated all the, all the comments or most of the comments. And it's called YouTube guard, ytguard.com is linked in the description. Obviously, this isn't for you, but what it does make sense is this. So I reached out to all the YouTubers that I knew as far as like crypto influencers and ones that I didn't know. And I reached out to them. I go, look, here is this program. I've used it for a month now. And in the beginning, it wiped out 70% of spam comments. And then in the end, it wiped out like 90 plus percent, 95 plus percent. And it's good to spare your, your subscribers from getting screwed over and scammed and everything else, because beforehand, people would actually DM me and go, Hey, I thought it was you and I sent them some Ethereum and it didn't really work out. Those are scammers. And I can say this every single time on the video, but it gets repetitive and boring. And then people like, well, I didn't see that last part because I didn't say the end. And then of course I got screwed over and it's just a big long thing. So look, when you're, when you're looking at your different YouTubers, the ones that didn't do this, they either didn't know about the program or just don't give a crap about you getting screwed over. That's really what it comes down to. Yes, this Y2 guard is expensive. Yes, it's a little cumbersome to get going. But these guys help set it up. And that's a bummer, but it is what it is. So I'm going to do a video over on Dan clips about this, this whole thing. But if you know of any YouTubers, send them to YTGuard.com. And I don't give any money from, from these guys. I'm not being a paid spokesman. They give me a discount for my monthly rate if somebody mentions Dan, but they don't give me any money. But I use them all the time. And that's why the comment section is a lot cleaner than, than a lot of other places out there. So look, that's it. That's all I want to talk about. And if you liked the video, first of all, thanks for, for going all the way through my rants. I appreciate it. If you liked the video, give it a thumbs up and a like. Also consider subscribing. A lot of things we talk about are very time sensitive on this channel. Over on Dan clips is more of the advancements in crypto and projects and different crazy stuff like this and more live streams. So we'll do, that's over there. But that is it for today. Thanks so much for watching. I appreciate it. See you on the next one.
