0:00

oh potential game changer for

0:02

cryptocurrencies as Harvard comes out

0:04

and suggests that central banks should

0:07

hold cryptocurrency in particular

0:09

Bitcoin will talk about why in just a

0:12

moment we'll also talk about what's

0:14

going on with CZ and binance why can we

0:17

not unwrap our wrapped a Bitcoin and

0:20

what's going on with the dpeg we had a

0:22

little bit of pain over on the cardano

0:24

network and I can't believe this but

0:27

next Wednesday the New York Times is

0:30

actually doing a deal book a summit

0:32

there will be attendees like Mark

0:34

Zuckerberg president zielinski from

0:37

Ukraine and Janet Yellen from the

0:39

treasury Department all alongside Sam

0:43

bankman fraud I mean freed yeah for some

0:46

reason the New York Times the same

0:47

organization that put together a

0:49

wonderful puff piece on Sam bankman

0:51

freed not at all or remotely calling him

0:54

criminally negligent for the failure to

0:57

ensure the safe keeping of their

0:59

customers ask sets but instead promoting

1:02

that he just made a mistake me it all

1:05

seems pretty disgusting but let's hit

1:07

some of the updates first it is Black

1:09

Friday that means the biggest coupon

1:11

code is expiring today for the programs

1:14

I'm building your wealth remember when

1:16

you join you guarantee the best price

1:18

and lifetime access to the programs on

1:21

building your wealth all new lectures

1:23

lifetime access to anytime I add a

1:27

lecture you lock that in and of course

1:29

you get access to the Daily course

1:31

member live streams linked Down Below in

1:33

the course member Elite Hustlers course

1:36

for increasing your income drops all of

1:38

its lectures today and probably later

1:41

this afternoon so with that said let's

1:43

get into the updates the biggest issue

1:45

of concern today has to do with Bitcoin

1:48

and wrapped Bitcoin which is basically

1:50

Bitcoin on the ethereum network Bitcoin

1:53

right now is sitting at a 16 491 but

1:57

wrapped Bitcoin is sitting about 200

1:59

below that that is a side of a d Peg and

2:03

a lot of folks on multiple different

2:05

platforms have been complaining about

2:06

having issues moving their wrapped

2:09

Bitcoin to bitcoin this is a dangerous

2:12

depeg that could be the sign of issues

2:16

with underlying wrapped Bitcoin to

2:20

bitcoin liquidity what that means is if

2:23

all of a sudden some institutions like

2:25

maybe let's just say coin list don't

2:28

have enough Bitcoin to give you and you

2:31

ask them hey I want to trade my wrapped

2:33

Bitcoin for Bitcoin but they don't have

2:35

enough and they can't facilitate this

2:38

transaction we start wondering if these

2:41

companies have liquidity concerns which

2:44

causes a little bit more of a panic in

2:45

the markets and when markets start

2:47

panicking they start dumping the value

2:50

or they start trying to dump their asset

2:52

even if it means dumping it for a

2:54

discount that's potentially what you're

2:56

seeing with rap Bitcoin when you see a

2:58

deep Peg it means some individual are

3:00

saying I will sell my wbtc for less than

3:04

it's actually supposed to be worth which

3:06

it's supposed to be worth one to one to

3:07

bitcoin I'll sell it for less just to

3:10

get the liquidity to get my money out

3:12

the larger that Gap goes the more Panic

3:15

you tend to see but what we have today

3:17

is quotes from coin list a lot of fud

3:21

going around that we would like to

3:22

address head on coin list is not

3:25

insolvent a liquid or near bankruptcy

3:27

we're just experiencing technical issues

3:29

that are affecting deposit and

3:31

withdrawals this has to smell like the

3:33

largest I've ever read in my

3:35

life it's almost as bad as FTX saying

3:39

we're fine no problems with withdrawals

3:42

and then a few days later we're freezing

3:44

with rituals and then a few days later

3:46

we're going bankrupt it's the same thing

3:48

blockfy said literally in one day

3:51

blockify went from everything's fine to

3:54

we have to freeze all withdrawals it's

3:56

not fine

3:57

you can't trust this you've got to get

4:00

off exchange it's so important of course

4:03

coinless says they're working on

4:04

updating their internal Ledger systems

4:06

and that this is just purely a technical

4:09

issue don't worry it's by no means a

4:13

liquidity crunch of course it's stuff

4:15

like this that is leading to companies

4:17

like binance suggesting you know what we

4:20

will do whatever we need to do to make

4:22

sure we have a Recovery Fund for

4:24

startups basically being like the

4:27

Central Bank the Jerome Powell so that

4:29

way if companies go bust we'll bail them

4:32

out of course the problem with not being

4:34

a central bank is you could also run out

4:37

of money see the old Jerome Powell of

4:40

crypto was Sam bankman freed who's now

4:42

Sam bankman broke

4:43

now the new one in town seems to be

4:46

binance and this kind of shady guy seesy

4:49

now some people say hey man that's

4:50

offensive to an OG let me put it this

4:52

way if you're hiding in Dubai you refuse

4:55

to come to the United States because

4:56

you're getting investigated in the

4:57

United States the UK Singapore and

4:59

pretty much anywhere else around the

5:01

world and when reporters show up to your

5:03

offices you tell them oh nobody's here

5:04

because of covid in 2022 and then you do

5:08

a virtual tour and you tell people well

5:10

I mean it's all sparse around here

5:11

because people are working from home

5:12

let's just say there's reason to be a

5:15

little sussed out about your business

5:16

operations over at binance but I

5:19

understand the desire to be a Central

5:21

Bank in fact central banks bail out

5:23

Banks so that way customers don't lose

5:26

their assets when the banks go bust

5:28

because they do stupid risky the

5:30

same thing is true in crypto ex that is

5:32

companies do stupid and risky stuff the

5:34

difference is you could end up having a

5:37

binance come in be like oh yeah don't

5:39

worry ah we'll bail out FTX let's look

5:42

at those books oh God this is way worse

5:45

than expected never mind

5:46

and then the company goes bankrupt and

5:48

people lose their money this is terrible

5:50

you can't trust the crypto exchange it's

5:52

not your keys not your crypto get off

5:54

exchanges we've been saying that for

5:56

years on the channel that doesn't mean

5:58

you can't use an exchange to transact

5:59

and buy but in general get off as soon

6:02

as possible now CZ is offering a two

6:05

billion dollar now bailout fund but when

6:08

you actually look at some of the details

6:09

of this bailout fund it starts looking a

6:12

little bit more shady again when you

6:14

actually look at the details you see

6:16

that CZ actually success quote quote

6:20

suggests quote we're going with a loose

6:22

approach where different industry

6:24

players will contribute as they wish and

6:27

then when it comes to mentioning

6:29

different industry players we get

6:31

companies like jump crypto polygon

6:33

Ventures Aptos labos uh Anna mocha

6:37

Brands GSR Cronus and Booker all of them

6:41

together are making a very very large

6:43

pledge of

6:44

50 million dollars

6:46

Which is less than two and a half

6:47

percent of the two billion dollars CZ is

6:51

hoping to raise

6:52

czs indicated they're willing to

6:54

contribute one billion dollars

6:55

themselves maybe they can raise up to

6:56

two billion dollars but in my opinion

6:58

this whole Industry Recovery initiative

7:03

is a farce I don't believe it first of

7:06

all it's disgusting enough that most of

7:08

the money in the seifu fund over at

7:11

binance is the binance token which the

7:14

problem with that is if Finance has

7:16

Financial issues the binance token will

7:18

go to zero very very quickly just like

7:21

we saw the ftt token collapse and then

7:24

the value of the safu fund is basically

7:26

worthless and if the Industry Recovery

7:29

initiative is also funded with binance

7:31

token

7:32

if even

7:34

then there is no Industry Recovery

7:36

initiative if the binance token goes

7:38

down

7:39

scary I would not hang my hat and

7:42

certainly put my money which certainly

7:44

would not put my money on a situation

7:46

like this especially when Genesis is

7:48

looking for emergency funding given

7:50

their 2.8 billion dollars in debt

7:52

reportedly trying to raise at least a

7:54

billion dollars just to survive now as

7:57

we talked about in my last video I don't

7:59

expect that the grayscale Bitcoin trust

8:00

will be going bankrupt I actually think

8:02

there's potentially an opportunity to

8:04

buy the Bitcoin uh grayscale Bitcoin

8:06

trust unless of course you think Bitcoin

8:07

is going to drop even more the discount

8:09

for net asset value is pretty nice

8:11

looking at about a 40 to 45 percent

8:13

discount uh from net asset value because

8:15

of liquidity constraints now on the flip

8:18

side though it could also be a warning

8:19

sign that what if crypto prices are

8:22

going to Trend down even more because

8:24

there ends up being a larger bankruptcy

8:26

if Genesis goes what if they end up

8:28

taking down another brokerage what if 10

8:30

other brokerages go down and they end up

8:31

taking down Finance the binance token

8:33

goes down well then Bitcoin might not be

8:35

at 16 000 anymore it might be at eight

8:37

or four or two thousand and so that's

8:39

potentially what the binance token is

8:40

starting to warn us of is that if we see

8:42

a 45 decline in Bitcoin prices we might

8:45

be under 10k now the good news though is

8:47

it's not all bad news in fact Belgium

8:50

just announced that they believe that

8:52

Bitcoin and ethereum are not Securities

8:54

which is actually very huge see they

8:56

argue that any issued cryptocurrency

8:59

backed or created solely by computer

9:01

code are not Securities this is a big

9:04

deal because there's been a lot of rumor

9:06

around what the SEC is going to declare

9:08

a security or not right now it's the

9:10

opinion of Gary Gensler the chairperson

9:12

of the SEC not an official opinion that

9:14

BTC is not a security but that ethereum

9:17

could be a security because staking

9:19

could be deemed like a Lending Service

9:21

and and potentially you're worried about

9:23

the common Enterprise concern of Lido

9:25

for example holding over 30 percent

9:27

control over ethereum because so many

9:29

people have staked ethereum 1.0 before

9:31

the merge with Lido

9:33

however this news from uh from Belgium

9:37

is a really interesting argument that

9:38

basically something is a security if

9:40

it's issued by an individual or an

9:42

entity like maybe the FDT token or the

9:44

BNB token but not BTC or ethereum

9:47

according to Belgium because they are

9:49

not issued by an individual or an entity

9:51

that potentially suggests these coins

9:53

would be more of part of the public

9:54

domain which is actually good we don't

9:56

want them to be considered Securities

9:57

now look at this though hedging

9:59

sanctions risk cryptocurrency and

10:02

Central Bank Reserves a paper put

10:05

together by Matthew F over at the

10:07

department of

10:09

Economics at Harvard University

10:11

published just a few days ago central

10:13

banks may consider holding more assets

10:17

in cryptocurrency specifically Bitcoin

10:21

as a way to hedge the risk of U.S

10:23

sanctions consider for example when

10:26

Russia was sanctioned when Russia was

10:28

sanctioned which is the 11th largest

10:31

economy in the world and these sanctions

10:33

have never ever been seen before on this

10:35

sort of scale Russia had potentially

10:37

lost about half of their International

10:41

reserves due to sanctions being freezing

10:43

their assets had they had some

10:46

Diversified risk into let's say Bitcoin

10:48

maybe you could actually call Bitcoin a

10:51

safe haven asset which you might say

10:54

that fiat currency and U.S treasuries

10:58

are no longer a safe haven asset

11:00

especially if you're a country like

11:01

North Korea Russia or Iran countries

11:04

that might be interested in actually

11:06

holding Bitcoin along with gold to

11:10

diversify away from the risk of being

11:13

able to control be controlled by the

11:15

United States they also talk about how

11:18

there is obviously some risk in holding

11:21

Bitcoin due to price volatility but that

11:25

could potentially be Diversified away

11:27

and in addition to this as long as Fiat

11:32

does not or send central banks don't

11:34

actually control the blockchain there

11:37

are a lot of opportunities to transact

11:40

both on-chain and off chain in fact

11:43

there's a page a piece here by luckner

11:46

Reinhardt and rogoff I thought this one

11:48

was very very interesting they talk

11:50

about how there are peer-to-peer

11:52

transfer networks like

11:55

localbitcoins.com that allows you to

11:58

essentially conduct transactions off

12:01

chain that end up getting bundled

12:03

together

12:05

uh and in on chain transactions but are

12:09

actually off-chain transactions and

12:12

through these methods you're able to uh

12:14

transact and kind of conceal some of the

12:17

activity uh that you're performing uh

12:19

potentially off chain which could be

12:22

kind of useful maybe uh for entities

12:25

like central banks who aren't interested

12:27

in seeing all of their transactions uh

12:30

monitored uh which is kind of

12:33

interesting because you'd think central

12:34

banks should be transparent but then

12:36

they could also as this paper argues

12:38

receive a lot of scrutiny for where

12:40

they're parking their reserves or what

12:41

they're doing with them they also make

12:43

the argument that you have to be careful

12:45

of other coins like for example axi

12:47

Infinity because axi for example and the

12:51

uh 600 million dollars worth of ether

12:54

that were stolen from the axi Infinity

12:56

Hack ended up having the US Treasury

12:59

Department sanctioned the digital wallet

13:01

used in the hack which shows you that if

13:03

the treasure department has that kind of

13:04

control it's not as decentralized as it

13:07

should be again leading to the potential

13:09

that Bitcoin might be the most hack

13:12

resistant secure and decentralized Tool

13:15

even above the proof of stake system

13:18

that ethereum now uses and even though

13:21

it'd be very expensive and difficult to

13:23

take control of that ethereum Network or

13:25

to have any kind of controlling uh uh

13:28

essentially uh power within the ethereum

13:31

network you'd have to spend a whole

13:32

substantial sum of money as they say

13:34

here half of ethereum's market cap is

13:37

about 92 billion dollars but in theory a

13:40

country could take control of a half and

13:42

then Institute a hard fork and have a

13:44

lot more control over ethereum although

13:46

it would be expensive than they would

13:48

have control over the very decentralized

13:51

Bitcoin Network kind of an interesting

13:54

piece here by Harvard honestly and they

13:56

wrap up by saying hey you know what this

13:59

is a real consideration in the face of

14:01

sanctions That central banks Diversified

14:04

not only amongst gold but also crypto

14:06

and while gold is great and universally

14:09

accepted it's really difficult to buy

14:12

and store in in its physical capacity

14:15

it's heavy to ship around and deal with

14:17

and it's easy to lose and it's a lot

14:20

less liquid than cryptocurrency which

14:23

can obviously be transferred over the

14:26

blockchain pretty dang quickly and

14:27

inexpensively another risk though to

14:30

this idea of using cryptocurrency as a

14:32

reserve is the potential rise of the

14:35

Renminbi the Chinese currency as a

14:37

currency Reserve asset reason for this

14:39

is the Redmond B is pegged to the US

14:42

dollar so some countries might actually

14:44

use the Renminbi as a proxy to the

14:46

dollar even though there can be

14:47

fluctuations in that Peg but the

14:50

countries like Russia might suggest or

14:53

or feel safer investing in the Chinese

14:55

currency than they potentially might

14:57

investing in dollar backed assets like

15:00

treasuries fascinating what's also

15:03

interesting is cardano's stablecoin

15:06

attempt ardana which was going to be

15:09

labeled d u s t is apparently shutting

15:13

down not enough money to keep the

15:14

project going some complaining that the

15:16

cardano network is just too complicated

15:19

to code on although Charles hoskinson

15:21

obviously is uh vigorously defending the

15:24

cardano network suggesting he lost about

15:27

500 000 on the ardana project and uh is

15:31

uh is is still helpful for stable coins

15:34

to come to uh cardano and that covers it

15:40

that's our news for today check out
