Central Banks to MASSIVELY Buy Bitcoin | Binance Collapse.
FULL TRANSCRIPT
oh potential game changer for
cryptocurrencies as Harvard comes out
and suggests that central banks should
hold cryptocurrency in particular
Bitcoin will talk about why in just a
moment we'll also talk about what's
going on with CZ and binance why can we
not unwrap our wrapped a Bitcoin and
what's going on with the dpeg we had a
little bit of pain over on the cardano
network and I can't believe this but
next Wednesday the New York Times is
actually doing a deal book a summit
there will be attendees like Mark
Zuckerberg president zielinski from
Ukraine and Janet Yellen from the
treasury Department all alongside Sam
bankman fraud I mean freed yeah for some
reason the New York Times the same
organization that put together a
wonderful puff piece on Sam bankman
freed not at all or remotely calling him
criminally negligent for the failure to
ensure the safe keeping of their
customers ask sets but instead promoting
that he just made a mistake me it all
seems pretty disgusting but let's hit
some of the updates first it is Black
Friday that means the biggest coupon
code is expiring today for the programs
I'm building your wealth remember when
you join you guarantee the best price
and lifetime access to the programs on
building your wealth all new lectures
lifetime access to anytime I add a
lecture you lock that in and of course
you get access to the Daily course
member live streams linked Down Below in
the course member Elite Hustlers course
for increasing your income drops all of
its lectures today and probably later
this afternoon so with that said let's
get into the updates the biggest issue
of concern today has to do with Bitcoin
and wrapped Bitcoin which is basically
Bitcoin on the ethereum network Bitcoin
right now is sitting at a 16 491 but
wrapped Bitcoin is sitting about 200
below that that is a side of a d Peg and
a lot of folks on multiple different
platforms have been complaining about
having issues moving their wrapped
Bitcoin to bitcoin this is a dangerous
depeg that could be the sign of issues
with underlying wrapped Bitcoin to
bitcoin liquidity what that means is if
all of a sudden some institutions like
maybe let's just say coin list don't
have enough Bitcoin to give you and you
ask them hey I want to trade my wrapped
Bitcoin for Bitcoin but they don't have
enough and they can't facilitate this
transaction we start wondering if these
companies have liquidity concerns which
causes a little bit more of a panic in
the markets and when markets start
panicking they start dumping the value
or they start trying to dump their asset
even if it means dumping it for a
discount that's potentially what you're
seeing with rap Bitcoin when you see a
deep Peg it means some individual are
saying I will sell my wbtc for less than
it's actually supposed to be worth which
it's supposed to be worth one to one to
bitcoin I'll sell it for less just to
get the liquidity to get my money out
the larger that Gap goes the more Panic
you tend to see but what we have today
is quotes from coin list a lot of fud
going around that we would like to
address head on coin list is not
insolvent a liquid or near bankruptcy
we're just experiencing technical issues
that are affecting deposit and
withdrawals this has to smell like the
largest I've ever read in my
life it's almost as bad as FTX saying
we're fine no problems with withdrawals
and then a few days later we're freezing
with rituals and then a few days later
we're going bankrupt it's the same thing
blockfy said literally in one day
blockify went from everything's fine to
we have to freeze all withdrawals it's
not fine
you can't trust this you've got to get
off exchange it's so important of course
coinless says they're working on
updating their internal Ledger systems
and that this is just purely a technical
issue don't worry it's by no means a
liquidity crunch of course it's stuff
like this that is leading to companies
like binance suggesting you know what we
will do whatever we need to do to make
sure we have a Recovery Fund for
startups basically being like the
Central Bank the Jerome Powell so that
way if companies go bust we'll bail them
out of course the problem with not being
a central bank is you could also run out
of money see the old Jerome Powell of
crypto was Sam bankman freed who's now
Sam bankman broke
now the new one in town seems to be
binance and this kind of shady guy seesy
now some people say hey man that's
offensive to an OG let me put it this
way if you're hiding in Dubai you refuse
to come to the United States because
you're getting investigated in the
United States the UK Singapore and
pretty much anywhere else around the
world and when reporters show up to your
offices you tell them oh nobody's here
because of covid in 2022 and then you do
a virtual tour and you tell people well
I mean it's all sparse around here
because people are working from home
let's just say there's reason to be a
little sussed out about your business
operations over at binance but I
understand the desire to be a Central
Bank in fact central banks bail out
Banks so that way customers don't lose
their assets when the banks go bust
because they do stupid risky the
same thing is true in crypto ex that is
companies do stupid and risky stuff the
difference is you could end up having a
binance come in be like oh yeah don't
worry ah we'll bail out FTX let's look
at those books oh God this is way worse
than expected never mind
and then the company goes bankrupt and
people lose their money this is terrible
you can't trust the crypto exchange it's
not your keys not your crypto get off
exchanges we've been saying that for
years on the channel that doesn't mean
you can't use an exchange to transact
and buy but in general get off as soon
as possible now CZ is offering a two
billion dollar now bailout fund but when
you actually look at some of the details
of this bailout fund it starts looking a
little bit more shady again when you
actually look at the details you see
that CZ actually success quote quote
suggests quote we're going with a loose
approach where different industry
players will contribute as they wish and
then when it comes to mentioning
different industry players we get
companies like jump crypto polygon
Ventures Aptos labos uh Anna mocha
Brands GSR Cronus and Booker all of them
together are making a very very large
pledge of
50 million dollars
Which is less than two and a half
percent of the two billion dollars CZ is
hoping to raise
czs indicated they're willing to
contribute one billion dollars
themselves maybe they can raise up to
two billion dollars but in my opinion
this whole Industry Recovery initiative
is a farce I don't believe it first of
all it's disgusting enough that most of
the money in the seifu fund over at
binance is the binance token which the
problem with that is if Finance has
Financial issues the binance token will
go to zero very very quickly just like
we saw the ftt token collapse and then
the value of the safu fund is basically
worthless and if the Industry Recovery
initiative is also funded with binance
token
if even
then there is no Industry Recovery
initiative if the binance token goes
down
scary I would not hang my hat and
certainly put my money which certainly
would not put my money on a situation
like this especially when Genesis is
looking for emergency funding given
their 2.8 billion dollars in debt
reportedly trying to raise at least a
billion dollars just to survive now as
we talked about in my last video I don't
expect that the grayscale Bitcoin trust
will be going bankrupt I actually think
there's potentially an opportunity to
buy the Bitcoin uh grayscale Bitcoin
trust unless of course you think Bitcoin
is going to drop even more the discount
for net asset value is pretty nice
looking at about a 40 to 45 percent
discount uh from net asset value because
of liquidity constraints now on the flip
side though it could also be a warning
sign that what if crypto prices are
going to Trend down even more because
there ends up being a larger bankruptcy
if Genesis goes what if they end up
taking down another brokerage what if 10
other brokerages go down and they end up
taking down Finance the binance token
goes down well then Bitcoin might not be
at 16 000 anymore it might be at eight
or four or two thousand and so that's
potentially what the binance token is
starting to warn us of is that if we see
a 45 decline in Bitcoin prices we might
be under 10k now the good news though is
it's not all bad news in fact Belgium
just announced that they believe that
Bitcoin and ethereum are not Securities
which is actually very huge see they
argue that any issued cryptocurrency
backed or created solely by computer
code are not Securities this is a big
deal because there's been a lot of rumor
around what the SEC is going to declare
a security or not right now it's the
opinion of Gary Gensler the chairperson
of the SEC not an official opinion that
BTC is not a security but that ethereum
could be a security because staking
could be deemed like a Lending Service
and and potentially you're worried about
the common Enterprise concern of Lido
for example holding over 30 percent
control over ethereum because so many
people have staked ethereum 1.0 before
the merge with Lido
however this news from uh from Belgium
is a really interesting argument that
basically something is a security if
it's issued by an individual or an
entity like maybe the FDT token or the
BNB token but not BTC or ethereum
according to Belgium because they are
not issued by an individual or an entity
that potentially suggests these coins
would be more of part of the public
domain which is actually good we don't
want them to be considered Securities
now look at this though hedging
sanctions risk cryptocurrency and
Central Bank Reserves a paper put
together by Matthew F over at the
department of
Economics at Harvard University
published just a few days ago central
banks may consider holding more assets
in cryptocurrency specifically Bitcoin
as a way to hedge the risk of U.S
sanctions consider for example when
Russia was sanctioned when Russia was
sanctioned which is the 11th largest
economy in the world and these sanctions
have never ever been seen before on this
sort of scale Russia had potentially
lost about half of their International
reserves due to sanctions being freezing
their assets had they had some
Diversified risk into let's say Bitcoin
maybe you could actually call Bitcoin a
safe haven asset which you might say
that fiat currency and U.S treasuries
are no longer a safe haven asset
especially if you're a country like
North Korea Russia or Iran countries
that might be interested in actually
holding Bitcoin along with gold to
diversify away from the risk of being
able to control be controlled by the
United States they also talk about how
there is obviously some risk in holding
Bitcoin due to price volatility but that
could potentially be Diversified away
and in addition to this as long as Fiat
does not or send central banks don't
actually control the blockchain there
are a lot of opportunities to transact
both on-chain and off chain in fact
there's a page a piece here by luckner
Reinhardt and rogoff I thought this one
was very very interesting they talk
about how there are peer-to-peer
transfer networks like
localbitcoins.com that allows you to
essentially conduct transactions off
chain that end up getting bundled
together
uh and in on chain transactions but are
actually off-chain transactions and
through these methods you're able to uh
transact and kind of conceal some of the
activity uh that you're performing uh
potentially off chain which could be
kind of useful maybe uh for entities
like central banks who aren't interested
in seeing all of their transactions uh
monitored uh which is kind of
interesting because you'd think central
banks should be transparent but then
they could also as this paper argues
receive a lot of scrutiny for where
they're parking their reserves or what
they're doing with them they also make
the argument that you have to be careful
of other coins like for example axi
Infinity because axi for example and the
uh 600 million dollars worth of ether
that were stolen from the axi Infinity
Hack ended up having the US Treasury
Department sanctioned the digital wallet
used in the hack which shows you that if
the treasure department has that kind of
control it's not as decentralized as it
should be again leading to the potential
that Bitcoin might be the most hack
resistant secure and decentralized Tool
even above the proof of stake system
that ethereum now uses and even though
it'd be very expensive and difficult to
take control of that ethereum Network or
to have any kind of controlling uh uh
essentially uh power within the ethereum
network you'd have to spend a whole
substantial sum of money as they say
here half of ethereum's market cap is
about 92 billion dollars but in theory a
country could take control of a half and
then Institute a hard fork and have a
lot more control over ethereum although
it would be expensive than they would
have control over the very decentralized
Bitcoin Network kind of an interesting
piece here by Harvard honestly and they
wrap up by saying hey you know what this
is a real consideration in the face of
sanctions That central banks Diversified
not only amongst gold but also crypto
and while gold is great and universally
accepted it's really difficult to buy
and store in in its physical capacity
it's heavy to ship around and deal with
and it's easy to lose and it's a lot
less liquid than cryptocurrency which
can obviously be transferred over the
blockchain pretty dang quickly and
inexpensively another risk though to
this idea of using cryptocurrency as a
reserve is the potential rise of the
Renminbi the Chinese currency as a
currency Reserve asset reason for this
is the Redmond B is pegged to the US
dollar so some countries might actually
use the Renminbi as a proxy to the
dollar even though there can be
fluctuations in that Peg but the
countries like Russia might suggest or
or feel safer investing in the Chinese
currency than they potentially might
investing in dollar backed assets like
treasuries fascinating what's also
interesting is cardano's stablecoin
attempt ardana which was going to be
labeled d u s t is apparently shutting
down not enough money to keep the
project going some complaining that the
cardano network is just too complicated
to code on although Charles hoskinson
obviously is uh vigorously defending the
cardano network suggesting he lost about
500 000 on the ardana project and uh is
uh is is still helpful for stable coins
to come to uh cardano and that covers it
