Hanally, 9 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,280 Speaker 1: I'm just wondering, after you got through the sixties six 10 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:38,159 Speaker 1: page home, did it give us any hints as to 11 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,639 Speaker 1: what to expect from the earnings report coming on Wednesday. 12 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:43,559 Speaker 1: Listen the fact that he thinks that things are going 13 00:00:43,600 --> 00:00:47,720 Speaker 1: to be good, Til says a lot, right, because you 14 00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 1: have volatility now down a little bit, which you know, 15 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 1: on the face of it is fine, it's nice, it's boring. 16 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: But banks make money when things get volatile. Banks don't 17 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:01,920 Speaker 1: make money when things get too rough for people to 18 00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 1: really engage in markets, right, Sonali, what's what our expectations 19 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 1: here as would come in for these banks? Here this 20 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,440 Speaker 1: earnings because We're gonna have a lot of the big 21 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:13,839 Speaker 1: ones on Wednesday. Yeah, I've got to say I've moved 22 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: on from Jamie Diamond, Daniel Letter all the way to 23 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 1: the Satoshi Nakamoto white paper again because on Wednesday we 24 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:26,480 Speaker 1: have both JP Morgan reporting and coin bases direct listing. 25 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 1: So you have Old Wall Street New Wall Street. You 26 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 1: have a confluence of events that I think are very 27 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: exciting actually, and coin base is going to be using 28 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 1: the direct listing model, which you know, we've wondered for 29 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,559 Speaker 1: a long time how much that type of a model 30 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:44,000 Speaker 1: is going to eat into the traditional I p O 31 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 1: s that make the banks owe so much money. As 32 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 1: we know, the banks make less money and do we 33 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,919 Speaker 1: know how much less they do make on a direct 34 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 1: listing versus a traditional IPO. Well, here's what's interesting. They 35 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:58,080 Speaker 1: don't make less money per bank, they're just a lot 36 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 1: less banks working on them. So where you can have 37 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: a dozen or so underwriters on a direct listing, there's 38 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,240 Speaker 1: really only a few that work on sorry, and on 39 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: I p O there's only a few that work on 40 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,800 Speaker 1: a direct listing. So Goldman and Morgan Stanley are they've 41 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 1: really gotten ahead of this. They've been able to make 42 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:18,119 Speaker 1: a business for this of themselves. Cited Al Securities, which 43 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 1: is usually the market maker for these direct listings, they've 44 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: made a big business for themselves. But on NASDAC, you 45 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 1: don't need a market maker like sited Al Securities. NASDAC 46 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:30,680 Speaker 1: kind of does the process for you. UM. And so 47 00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 1: it's a big day for the exchange, and it's a 48 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 1: big day for UM the you know, I like how 49 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Intelligence puts it. You can expect coin baseed to 50 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:44,839 Speaker 1: eventually become a bank for crypto. It's also a big 51 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,519 Speaker 1: day for UM, the bitcoin community or the crypto community, 52 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 1: because this is a much more democratic way of giving 53 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: investors access to your shares. Right, if you do an 54 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 1: I P O, you need to be a buyer in that. 55 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,239 Speaker 1: As a retail investor UM, you need to get syndicate. 56 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 1: That means you have to have developed a long relationship 57 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 1: with your broker. You have to be a big play. 58 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,600 Speaker 1: You know. It almost seems unfair for you know, a 59 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 1: mom and pop investor because there's no hope in heck 60 00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: that they can ever get any syndicate. They have to 61 00:03:17,880 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: buy it after it starts trading, and typically after a pop. Right, Yeah, 62 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: that's really the hope here that the direct listings can 63 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: make this much more democratic. Uh, let's see how it 64 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 1: works out at the end of the day, right, Let's 65 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:32,920 Speaker 1: see how many people actually start to buy into coin 66 00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: base and then you know, Matt it also it's become 67 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:40,040 Speaker 1: more than really a hundred billion dollar company in private markets. 68 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: Do they keep that evaluation as they become a retail play. 69 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 1: You can make the argument both ways, right, if bitcoin 70 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: continues at its current pace, if they add more products, 71 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 1: if you get more retail interests, and you see coin 72 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: based going much higher, and it is good. But on 73 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,520 Speaker 1: other areas you can say maybe some of these companies 74 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: have waited very late, um, and you know, do they 75 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 1: face potential down rounds when they get into public marks. 76 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 1: Will also be interesting to see if the price in 77 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: bitcoin fades a little into this, because that's a hundred 78 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: billion dollars that's essentially going to come out of crypto 79 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 1: market cap, isn't it. Yeah, it's it's pretty incredible here. 80 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: The coin based play is really looking beyond bitcoin, right 81 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:28,159 Speaker 1: and looking at them getting into other assets like areas 82 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 1: like custody. Right, making bitcoin more easily held and tradeable 83 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:39,440 Speaker 1: for large institutional firms, because firms like JP Morgan right 84 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 1: have been so slow to get into this kind of 85 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 1: new new era of finance. Yeah, that's kind of where 86 00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: I went to go. What are the the big banks 87 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 1: saying about crypto because it feels like the late to 88 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: the game. It feels like they don't or they have 89 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:59,400 Speaker 1: not made a big commitment. How are how are investors 90 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: thinking about this? Well, one thing that's pretty incredible, as 91 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 1: we've in recent we've got news that Goldman and Morgan 92 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: Stanley are taking steps to make it more available for 93 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 1: their private wealth clients. There's a couple ramifications for that. One. 94 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 1: Crypto was supposed to be this great equalizer, Yet at 95 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 1: the banks it's being made available to the wealthiest clients first, 96 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,440 Speaker 1: So that is kind of against um the whole heart 97 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: of what crypto is supposed to stand for. The other 98 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: thing about it is again it's years later, right, it's 99 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,760 Speaker 1: a crypto, it's bitcoin above fifty dollars is when they're 100 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: starting to sell it. Does that big give a big 101 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,559 Speaker 1: boost to the price or are they getting in late? 102 00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 1: Only time will tell that story. You know, the folks 103 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: that have gotten in much earlier through other means outside 104 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: of the banks are probably much happier today. Um, but 105 00:05:50,839 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 1: you do see the banks trying to embrace it. Just 106 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 1: got twenty two here. But you speak to the wealthiest 107 00:05:56,440 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 1: investors on Wall Street, are you noticing an uptick in 108 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: the number who are interested in bitcoin? Oh? Yeah, even 109 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: traditional hedge fund managers. You know, watching Dan Loebe tweet 110 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 1: about it over the weekend is is you know a 111 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: fun change to watch. Yeah, that's interesting and I think 112 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: the we are seeing that institutional uptake guys, and again 113 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: even on the corporate side, with Tesla obviously putting it 114 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 1: on its balance sheet. Shnei Bassk text so much for 115 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 1: joining us, giving that preview of earnings and preview of 116 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:29,120 Speaker 1: coin base on Wednesday, Shanellie Basket, Wall Street reporter for 117 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 1: a Bloomberg News where was appreciate getting the update on 118 00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: all things Wall Street. Now let's get straight to Duncan Aldred. 119 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: He joins us from General Motors, where he's a vice 120 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 1: president Global Buick and UH and gmc duncan. Great to 121 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 1: have you on the program. I gotta say, ever since 122 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 1: I was a kid, Arno Schwarzenegger started driving his mill 123 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 1: speck h one hummer around l A I have wanted 124 00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:00,559 Speaker 1: one and I still want one, preferably with a big 125 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 1: six point seven Leader turbo diesel. But you're bringing back 126 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,800 Speaker 1: the Hummer in a much more eco friendly way. What 127 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:14,000 Speaker 1: kind of um demand are you seeing? Yeah, good morning, 128 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: Great to be with you. Well, we're seeing it. Huge dayman. 129 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: We revealed the pickup truck version of the GMC Hummer 130 00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 1: EV in October, and we've just revealed the suv version 131 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,360 Speaker 1: of it. About a week or so ago. We started 132 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: taking reservations. It's first to say that the the reservation 133 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: count is huge. We did a limited edition first edition 134 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: which sold out in a matter of minutes, both for 135 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: the truck originally and then more recently for the suv. 136 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 1: And this is very different to that that vehicle that 137 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 1: you just mentioned there as you say, this is a 138 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:51,240 Speaker 1: true zero emission all electric vehicle. But believe me, the 139 00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: performance and capability that this generates really does put that 140 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 1: original Hummer into the shade. Zero to sixty in three seconds, 141 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,640 Speaker 1: to the truck up a little bit longer for the suv, 142 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: the ability to go in the most difficult off road terrains. 143 00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 1: This is a super truck. And we coined the phrase 144 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,760 Speaker 1: on this because this really is the world's first super truck, 145 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 1: whether it be in pickup truck or suv. Guys, all right, 146 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 1: what are these super trucks gonna set me back? So 147 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: they started eight dollars um and they go all the 148 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:27,920 Speaker 1: way up to a hundred thousand dollars. But before that 149 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: you get in an amazing amount of capability. I mentioned 150 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:36,839 Speaker 1: there the zero to sixty type figures, but you've also 151 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: got four wheel steering. So these are big vehicles, but 152 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 1: they've got a turning circle thanks to all four wheels 153 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 1: turning that is the same as a small car like 154 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: a Chevrolet Sonic for example. That four wheel steer function 155 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,839 Speaker 1: also allows you to go into what we call crab walk, 156 00:08:53,240 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 1: which means the vehicle can drive in a diagonal fashion, 157 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: which you might think, why do I need that, But 158 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: certainly when you get into extra him off road environments 159 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 1: to help navigate around, it's an amazing feature. But to 160 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:07,840 Speaker 1: be honest, it just makes you smile when you do 161 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: it because you see the horrid the horizon going in 162 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 1: the wrong direction when you're driving, So that's an amazing feature. 163 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: We have what's called an infinity roof, so the six 164 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 1: panels which all come off the store in the front 165 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 1: of the vehicle where an engine would be in a 166 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 1: traditional vehicle. You can store the infinity panel roof and 167 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,720 Speaker 1: the rear drop glass actually falls down, so you basically 168 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 1: make this vehicle are convertible. We think it's probably the 169 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: first all electric convertible in the world, and of course 170 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: you're getting that amazing open air experience with a near 171 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:46,559 Speaker 1: silence from the propulsion system because it's electric. Um. It's 172 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 1: also got super Cruise, the latest generation of super cruise, 173 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: and this is what a lot of people refer to 174 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 1: as autonomous driving. We call it a driver as this feature, 175 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: but it allows you to drive along the highway, take 176 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,760 Speaker 1: your hands off the wheel completely, and it will even 177 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: do overtaking maneuvers as well. So this is a vehicle 178 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: that's truly revolutionary, truly a super truck. And whilst the 179 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 1: upper price bounds, we think it's incredible value of money. 180 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 1: It will be amazing. I mean, I'm looking forward to 181 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 1: the SUV version which comes out. I think what late 182 00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:21,600 Speaker 1: three and I think it's gorgeous. I gotta ask, though, 183 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: Duncan Um, what's your answer to the current uh, the 184 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 1: current crop of gas powered super trucks you've got the 185 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,480 Speaker 1: doddre M t r X, so I think blew everybody away, 186 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 1: and Ford plans to answer could they kind of flubbed 187 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: it And now they're gonna answer next year with the 188 00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: Raptor are But these are you know, more than six 189 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:45,319 Speaker 1: leaders v a supercharged or turbo charged with seven hundred horsepower. 190 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: Does GM have an answer to that? Yeah, we do, 191 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: And again you know we were still we're still selling 192 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 1: traditional based vehicles as well, and I love them. But 193 00:10:56,160 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 1: if his performance that you're looking for, then quite honestly 194 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 1: nothing and come close to um to the hummary V 195 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 1: whether it be in truck, pickup truck or SUV. Guys, 196 00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: we're talking about eleven and a half thousand pounds of talk. 197 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:12,240 Speaker 1: We're talking about a thousand horsepower on the truck and 198 00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:15,640 Speaker 1: about eight thirty on the SUV. And as I say there, 199 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:20,679 Speaker 1: you're talking about instant acceleration zero to sixty three seconds 200 00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 1: on the truck and about three and a half on 201 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:26,560 Speaker 1: the SUV. So this is this gives truly kind of 202 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: unprecedented levels of performance. And he doesn't just do it 203 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 1: in a in a way that he's a pure brute force. 204 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 1: I mean, for example, when you choose to go for 205 00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,760 Speaker 1: this great zero to sixty time. Obviously, in the safe 206 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,640 Speaker 1: conditions you engage what's called what's the freedom mode, and 207 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,079 Speaker 1: what that does. It lowers the vehicle to its lowest 208 00:11:46,160 --> 00:11:49,960 Speaker 1: level because the suspension goes up and down, the seat 209 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 1: starts vibrating. You get almost like an amusement park theater 210 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: within the vehicles. All the screens begin to display things 211 00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 1: and you count down them. Boom, you you express the 212 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:09,719 Speaker 1: the gas story, you press the accelerate, the pedals pedal, Yeah, 213 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 1: no gas pedal. Now all right, that was good car talk, guys. 214 00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: I'm glad we have you. Guys got the chat your 215 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: little auto stuff. Duncan all Dread, vice president Global Buick 216 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: and GMC talking about electric vehicles coming to the truck market. 217 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,600 Speaker 1: And I know one Matt Miller is a psyched, so 218 00:12:25,679 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 1: that's good for him. This week, we're going to see 219 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: a big, big I p O and it's in the 220 00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 1: crypto space coin based coming public this week via a 221 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 1: direct listing at a staggering valuation, staggering to me at 222 00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: least of proximately one hundred billion dollars. Let's get the 223 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: latest on this. We can do that with John Woo. 224 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:50,800 Speaker 1: He's a president of Ava Labs based in Miami. So, first, John, 225 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: thanks so much for joining us here. I love for 226 00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: you just to simply describe what coin base is and 227 00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 1: why it is so critical to the crypto world. Okay, Paul, 228 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: nice to be here. So, a coin base is a 229 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 1: crypto exchange. They are very important to the cryptal world 230 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:11,600 Speaker 1: because they are one of the few properly regulated exchanges 231 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 1: allows FIAT onto the cryptal world, so they provide that 232 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: service in a compliant way, and that's why it's so important. 233 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 1: You know, Before I go to bed every night, I 234 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 1: always like to dream about, Uh, had I bought like 235 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,840 Speaker 1: three thousand bit coin when it was at seventy five 236 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:33,520 Speaker 1: dollars apiece, then I would have liked to sell it 237 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,599 Speaker 1: out around seventeen eighteen thousand at the peak and u 238 00:13:37,840 --> 00:13:39,600 Speaker 1: and then and then buy back in when it dropped 239 00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 1: again and then sell it out again at like sixty tho. 240 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,680 Speaker 1: So I would be like a billionaire right now. Would 241 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: I be able to do that on on coin based 242 00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 1: that would that be the best place for me to 243 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: do it? Yes, that you are allowed to do that, 244 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:56,199 Speaker 1: That's one of the places you can do it. But um, 245 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,680 Speaker 1: you know I can test the fact from having been 246 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 1: on the bi side before. It's easier to just buy 247 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 1: and hold the concept of trying to capture a move 248 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 1: and being able to navigate the daily trading. These are dreams, John, 249 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,000 Speaker 1: This is my This is my dream every night. It's 250 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:12,959 Speaker 1: nothing that I could actually have done. I think it 251 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:16,080 Speaker 1: would be ethically wrong for me. But um, is coin 252 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 1: based then the best place to do big bitcoin trades 253 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: securely for a US investor who wants an experience that's 254 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: similar to what they do at the brokerage houses. The 255 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: answer is yes, all right? So John, is this a 256 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,520 Speaker 1: way for investors if I wanted to buy into this 257 00:14:37,680 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 1: coin based IK? What I be my major play here 258 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:47,080 Speaker 1: is Hey, this gives me exposure to the crypto world. Yes? Absolutely. 259 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 1: I think the one thing that you would have to 260 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 1: consider it though, is how correlated is this to just gitcoin? 261 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:58,320 Speaker 1: I think of the assets custody by these guys is 262 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: just bitcoin. So if you want to get exposure to 263 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: anything below the top five coins, this is okay way, 264 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: but it's not probably possibly the best way to do it. 265 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: So uh where else should investors look? Then? Right now? 266 00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 1: And does this crypto boom still have room to run. 267 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,720 Speaker 1: So in terms of I answer backwards in terms of 268 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 1: the boom, I think you'll absolutely have room. Because the 269 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 1: market cap in crypto has gone from about one trillion 270 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:38,840 Speaker 1: at the end of January to about two trillions. Part 271 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 1: of that is just you know, the price of BPC 272 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: going up, but if you look at what's beneed that 273 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: and the faster growing parts of it, even at coin 274 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 1: basis custody, it is etherium and some of the other alternatives. 275 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 1: Bitcoin has proven to the world the first generation of 276 00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: crypto was good for a digital currency. Ethereum is now 277 00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 1: showing people that hey, there could be utility. There's this 278 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 1: whole defined network popping up. There's these n f t 279 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 1: s that you and I have talked about in the past. 280 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: So there's starting to begin use case and what I 281 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 1: call second generation of crypto, which is the ethereum and 282 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 1: some of the other alternatives. Is ethereum help me out here. 283 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 1: Is ethereum a competitor to bitcoin or is it just 284 00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: a use case at bitcoin? How do we think about 285 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 1: it in the context of bitcoin, Because we are hearing 286 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: more and more about ethereum as a stock price or 287 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: as the price of the currency continues to rise. Sure, 288 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: the easiest way to think of Ethereum is that it 289 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 1: is showing the utility. It's kind of like iOS on Apple. 290 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,440 Speaker 1: It is the platform that allows applications, whether in the 291 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 1: traditional world Facebook or clubhouse or TikTok, to build on 292 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 1: top of that iOS because it has a platform to 293 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: allow developers to come in and be creative and create 294 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: use cases on top of it Um. That's the best 295 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:02,280 Speaker 1: way to think about Ethereum. Whereas Bitcoin, the best use 296 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 1: case actually frankly is still digital goal storage of value, 297 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,720 Speaker 1: and that is because the call it think of it 298 00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:13,959 Speaker 1: as the operating system. The mechanism on Bitcoin has certain advantages, 299 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 1: but it doesn't have speed, it doesn't have transaction capability, 300 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,399 Speaker 1: doesn't have smart contracts on top of it. That's what 301 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 1: ethereum has provided. Now there's a whole new group while 302 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:28,840 Speaker 1: called crypto free point. Oh, and that's the guys below 303 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 1: the full and those guys are now making those transaction 304 00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:37,639 Speaker 1: happen at a very very fast paced no latency and 305 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,880 Speaker 1: making it cheap. So you know, we've talked, we talked 306 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 1: about n fps in the past. There are people right 307 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 1: now who go to Etherium. They purchase a n F 308 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,560 Speaker 1: key somewhere, but they had to pay thirty to forty 309 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:53,120 Speaker 1: in gas prices, which is effectively transaction costs. So that's 310 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:56,200 Speaker 1: going to be prohibitive of creating a proper digital economy. 311 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 1: So you have a whole new generation now of call 312 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 1: it platforms that are allowing better technology, better way of 313 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:07,439 Speaker 1: setting things up, allowing people to actually transact, allowing a 314 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: digital economy to really thrive. That medium exchange should not 315 00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 1: be prohibit to becoming a nice economy. So tell us 316 00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:20,120 Speaker 1: quickly again what you're doing at Ava Labs, because you 317 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,880 Speaker 1: you know, come from a full Ivy League pedigree, NBA Harvard, 318 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: you worked at Tiger Management. What what do you do 319 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 1: and what is your platform capable of? Great so on, 320 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,719 Speaker 1: President of Ava Labs. Ava Labs is the team behind 321 00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 1: the protocol Avalanche. Avalanche is the next generation blockchain that 322 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:43,439 Speaker 1: is compatible with Etherium. So exactly what I said before, 323 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:47,080 Speaker 1: where I think the first generation crypto Bitcoin was digital money, 324 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 1: second generation was applications, utility and an ecosystem. Third generation 325 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:57,920 Speaker 1: are going to be Avalanche like platforms that allow people 326 00:18:57,960 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 1: to transact and exchange things cheaply. It's almost like my Friendster, 327 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:05,879 Speaker 1: my Space, and now we're in the world of Facebook 328 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:09,199 Speaker 1: where we're gonna about to really take off. All right, well, 329 00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 1: it's great to get your insight on all things crypto. John, 330 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 1: thanks again for joining us. Hope to have you back 331 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 1: again soon. John Woo, they're the president of Able Labs 332 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 1: talking to us about the coin base. I p o 333 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: this could Paul be a hundred billion dollar company. It 334 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:28,240 Speaker 1: certainly is value that way privately. And the question is, um, 335 00:19:28,280 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 1: how will investors who have bit up crypto assets so quickly? Uh, 336 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:37,879 Speaker 1: you know, um embrace coin coin coin base absolutely, and 337 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:39,600 Speaker 1: it's gonna beet direct listing mat so it's gonna be 338 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 1: really interesting to see how this thing trades when it 339 00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 1: does come out. Yeah, I think the direct listing aspect 340 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:46,440 Speaker 1: of it is really cool, so you could get a 341 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:52,920 Speaker 1: lot more retail. This is Bloomberg. Now we're to bring 342 00:19:52,920 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 1: in anag Rana. He is Bloomberg Intelligence senior industry analyst. 343 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,119 Speaker 1: And of course the chips time it is on today. 344 00:20:01,160 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 1: We'll get to that. But first off, this morning we 345 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 1: saw Microsoft headlines cross they're gonna buy Nuance in a 346 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:11,080 Speaker 1: sixteen billion dollar deal that is their second largest in 347 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: history and I read your b I piece and you 348 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:19,439 Speaker 1: have a really cool chart about the reach, the product 349 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: penetration of Nuance. Ten tho organizations use it, but I 350 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:28,880 Speaker 1: thought it was amazing of hospitals in America use nuanced solutions. 351 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: What does this company do? So in the simplest way, 352 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: if I'm a doctor and I come back after visiting 353 00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 1: a patients, I need to transcribe that soft to that 354 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: particular you know, dictation of the of the chart. Um. 355 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 1: The software allows me to transcribe it as as as 356 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: you and I are talking. The software transcribes and conversation 357 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 1: in the background, and that really has been their full 358 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: tape for many years. And that's really where the crux 359 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 1: of the product is. And this is what we think 360 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 1: Microsoft is going to scale it much bigger, all right, 361 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:06,359 Speaker 1: So I mean nineteen point seven billion dollars, that's a 362 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:08,360 Speaker 1: that's a big number to the Matt Miller's and Paul 363 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:11,719 Speaker 1: Squeeneys of the world. Um, but the Microsoft that's not 364 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,719 Speaker 1: so much here. So I guess they're thinking about the 365 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 1: total addressable market. Let's just give us a sense of 366 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,959 Speaker 1: the strategy behind Microsoft. But what they think they can 367 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,440 Speaker 1: do with this asset. So think about it. It Currently 368 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:28,199 Speaker 1: healthcare accounts for close to eighteen percent of uss GDP 369 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 1: in terms of total expenses. It's an area which is 370 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 1: probably the biggest problem area for any corporation that's out there, 371 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 1: is a problem for all politicians. But and we have 372 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,960 Speaker 1: always said for years, I everybody said it for years 373 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 1: that only technology can solve this problem of you know, 374 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,720 Speaker 1: waste stage. Now the pandemic is a catalyst for people 375 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 1: to say, can we do a lot more work digitally? 376 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 1: And this is one of the the you could say, 377 00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 1: nuggets of where as we go more digital, you want 378 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,879 Speaker 1: to get more things that can transcribe using you know, voice, 379 00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 1: using AI. Yeah. I mean when you when you talk 380 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: about what doctors use it for um, I'm thinking like 381 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 1: my mechanic could use this from my bike. I got 382 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:14,159 Speaker 1: carb flow, I clutch slippage, you know, um, if you 383 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 1: have an old bike, those things are a problem. But 384 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: you could use it in so many different ways. For example, finance, 385 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: the financial industry could use it in um looking at 386 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: a client's portfolio. Are they gonna stick with just health 387 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:28,840 Speaker 1: care here? I don't think so. In fact, one of 388 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 1: the things being pointed out in our written research is 389 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 1: conversation is increasingly becoming the most important way people interact 390 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 1: with any application. So you know, from the consumer point 391 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 1: whether that's Alexa or City, but from you know, other 392 00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 1: areas as well, whether it's your HR software down the road, 393 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 1: you know, whether it's any other productivity application that helps 394 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:53,479 Speaker 1: you become more um, you know productive. You will be 395 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,800 Speaker 1: using voice as the first way of command to you know, 396 00:22:56,920 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 1: to interact with the person on the other side, and 397 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,760 Speaker 1: that's this software. You know, the guts of this software 398 00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: is so important because you can use it to create 399 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:09,680 Speaker 1: customer service chart pots. For example, you've covered Microsoft for 400 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:13,560 Speaker 1: a long time. They typically, uh, don't acquire a lot 401 00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:15,399 Speaker 1: of stuff. They're not very active in the M and 402 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:17,360 Speaker 1: A market. They did by LinkedIn and now this deal 403 00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 1: on a couple of others. Is that going to stay 404 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:21,399 Speaker 1: the same or do you expect them to try to 405 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,840 Speaker 1: step up and go stick growth rate with with some acquisitions. 406 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 1: So I think one of the biggest thing I would 407 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 1: say is they would want to use the growth rates 408 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 1: not by actually acquiring something for the take of revenue, 409 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 1: but it's going to be technologies that have very large, 410 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 1: you know, implications. So for example, this particular applications, as 411 00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,679 Speaker 1: both of you mentioned, will have applications not just in 412 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 1: the healthcare vertical, but almost everything that Microsoft does, So 413 00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,240 Speaker 1: you know, it's it's it's a question of acquiring the 414 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:54,119 Speaker 1: software and where the end markets is incredibly large. And 415 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: I think that's really what we will be looking at, 416 00:23:56,480 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: is whether they keep on investing in areas where, um, 417 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,160 Speaker 1: you know, the the end markets are not tiny but 418 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,280 Speaker 1: have a very large addressable market. So I just want 419 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,479 Speaker 1: to quickly get you to touch on the chip summit 420 00:24:08,520 --> 00:24:12,040 Speaker 1: that's happening today. We've seen the problems spread across a 421 00:24:12,119 --> 00:24:15,360 Speaker 1: number of industries. Just thirty seconds here and act what 422 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: what do you expect to be accomplished? See, I don't 423 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: think that SUBMIT is going to accomplish anything concrete in 424 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: a sense that that's a problem that just cannot be 425 00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:27,359 Speaker 1: solved so quickly. But we are I'm happy that they 426 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 1: are discussing this problem just because as an agent, we 427 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,320 Speaker 1: really need to get a lot more semiconductor work done 428 00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 1: in the US rather than you know, being a hostage 429 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 1: to the the the a the ation mevendors. Realistically, un 430 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:46,600 Speaker 1: will we bring chip manufacturing to the States. It's very 431 00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 1: difficult to say whether we physically bring it not, but 432 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:51,880 Speaker 1: we really need to have a way to make sure that, 433 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,280 Speaker 1: you know, similar to the way we are getting drugs 434 00:24:54,359 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 1: or we're getting the vaccine and you know, without a 435 00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 1: problem from anywhere in the world, we need to make 436 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,560 Speaker 1: sure we get the most access to it before anybody 437 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 1: else does. All right, don Rock, thank you so much 438 00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:05,840 Speaker 1: for joining us.

Nineteen point 441 00:25:12,720 --> 00:25:17,239 Speaker 1: seven billion dollars total consideration, big premium um, but as 442 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: Annoragua was mentioning, UH, it increases Microsoft's UH positioning and 443 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: enhances its positioning in healthcare as healthcare moves into the 444 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 1: twenty first century.
