1 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:11,440 Speaker 1: It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. The 2 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,080 Speaker 1: Michael Arry Show is on the air. 3 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 2: It's Charlie from BlackBerry Smoke. I can feel a good 4 00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 2: one coming on. It's the Michael Berry Show. Must Carry. 5 00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:29,080 Speaker 3: I didn't expect to talk bitcoin this. 6 00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:30,880 Speaker 2: Much, didn't. 7 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,040 Speaker 4: But think about that too. 8 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:37,320 Speaker 3: So you understand. If you are a bitcoin insider and 9 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,880 Speaker 3: you're screaming and hollering, going, Michael, you got that wrong. 10 00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:44,560 Speaker 3: Yet you're not who this show is for. A sweet 11 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 3: lady named Bertha called up early in the show and asked, 12 00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 3: what is bitcoin back by? If currency is backed by gold. 13 00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:58,279 Speaker 2: What is it back by? 14 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 3: And I made the point we're off the goal stander. 15 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:03,240 Speaker 3: We've been off the goal center a long time. Our 16 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:06,200 Speaker 3: currency is backed by nothing. We're just printing out paper 17 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 3: and the more we print, the more there is. And 18 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 3: it's backed by nothing. But I do the show on 19 00:01:14,600 --> 00:01:17,040 Speaker 3: almost every subject just so you know going forward, if 20 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:18,840 Speaker 3: you think to yourself, he should know more about that 21 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 3: than that. 22 00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 2: Many times I do. 23 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 3: I do the show for people who would not get 24 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 3: an answer to a question, but for on this show. 25 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:30,760 Speaker 3: This is not a bitcoin convention. We're not going to 26 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 3: use acronyms and all those I get emails quite frequently 27 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 3: on certain matters, one of them being bitcoin, and so. 28 00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 2: It hit me. 29 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 3: Let me call my guy that I've called and asked 30 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 3: for advice a lot of times, and let's take it 31 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:50,320 Speaker 3: down to a level that's understandable. You know that I 32 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 3: had a listener who, unbeknownst to me, spent seven hundred 33 00:01:55,240 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 3: thousand dollars investing in bitcoin and went through my show sponsor, 34 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 3: the Archpublic dot com, who's my guest right now, and 35 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 3: I didn't even know about it. This is a sophisticated 36 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,840 Speaker 3: guy financially, he just wanted to you know, he's got gold, 37 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 3: he's got stocks, he's got this, he's got this, and 38 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 3: he wanted to go through bitcoin. So when I say 39 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,480 Speaker 3: I want to have a conversation to a base level conversation, 40 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 3: that doesn't mean that the people who are paying attention 41 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 3: or idiots. It means that people might have a relatively 42 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 3: sophisticated understanding of equities and bonds and treasuries and even 43 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 3: gold and silver and commodities or memorabilia for that matter, 44 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 3: or real estate, but they just don't understand bitcoin. Now, 45 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 3: my question was Wall Street Journal today had two different stories. 46 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,919 Speaker 3: One was Trump says that monetary policy through the FED, 47 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 3: and I hope he fires your own power. 48 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:45,240 Speaker 2: I want to see that. 49 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 3: I want to see him. I want to see the 50 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:50,600 Speaker 3: quote unquote constitutional crisis because if he appoints him, that 51 00:02:50,720 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 3: he can fire him. And I feel confident of that, 52 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 3: and I've always felt that long before this little tip. 53 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 3: But secondly, he says he wants to make the United 54 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 3: States a bitcoin superpower. So Tillmanholloway of the Archpublic dot 55 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 3: com is our guest. Tillan, you got four minutes left 56 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:08,120 Speaker 3: in this segment. I'm turning off my mic. Could you 57 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 3: speak to those two issues. 58 00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. 59 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 5: The reason why he's wanting to do this is because 60 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 5: the money printing has become a political weapon, and we 61 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 5: all see it. 62 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:24,840 Speaker 6: It's bills that are passed. 63 00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 5: With tremendous fat ninety percent fat to ten percent substance. 64 00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 5: We've seen the corruption of pretty much every government agency 65 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 5: now being put to the test and being held accountable 66 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:39,360 Speaker 5: through DOGE. 67 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 6: So there's this incredible. 68 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 5: Waste that has been going on for so long because 69 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 5: the printing press is used, it's used for political purposes, 70 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 5: and bitcoin has no agenda. Bitcoin cannot be paid with 71 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 5: fake dollars in order to have loyalty to any one 72 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 5: party or any one person. It's a money and a 73 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 5: network that was built for the. 74 00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 6: People by the people. 75 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 5: And there's a saying in the bitcoin community that is, 76 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 5: you get the price that you deserve. If you are 77 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:20,400 Speaker 5: a bleeding edge technologist and love economics and you got 78 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 5: in in twenty thirteen, you deserved a very very low price, 79 00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:28,080 Speaker 5: and you got that. And the price of bitcoin has 80 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 5: no cap. The price of real estate is become one 81 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 5: hundred and seventy trillion plus dollar market cap globally because 82 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 5: it's lendable, it's borrowed. You can borrow against real estate 83 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 5: very easily. You mentioned earlier that Trump is going to 84 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 5: make America a banking superpower on the back of bitcoin. 85 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 5: That means that he. 86 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:54,200 Speaker 2: Has opened up and he's already told the. 87 00:04:55,960 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 5: Rules that used to prohibit banks from holding bitcoin on 88 00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 5: a bounce sheet, he's rescinded those rules, so now bitcoin 89 00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 5: can be held by banks. Banks can use it as 90 00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:10,520 Speaker 5: a base collateral denominator, which means they're going to start 91 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 5: to offer loans against bitcoin, and that's going to be 92 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 5: something that will drive the market of bitcoin into the 93 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 5: same type of stratosphere that the real estate market is. 94 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,239 Speaker 6: And so we're right now at about a one. 95 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:27,600 Speaker 2: Point seven trillion. 96 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:30,040 Speaker 6: Dollar market CAB and so if we go to real estate, we're. 97 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 5: Talking about over one hundred acts. From where we sit 98 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:38,480 Speaker 5: right now. That sounds ridiculous, but if you understand economic principles, 99 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 5: then they continued to dig deeper and deeper into why 100 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 5: bitcoin has been successful for sixteen plus years in spite 101 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:49,919 Speaker 5: of every government on the planet trying to take it 102 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 5: out at some point. It's been successful because it's pure economics, 103 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 5: it's pure math. And so this is a network that's 104 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,359 Speaker 5: built on the conviction of people who understand the network 105 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 5: and want to contribute to it with computing power. And 106 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 5: now that network has become so powerful that everyone has 107 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 5: to recognize it, including traditional finance. 108 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 6: And that's why you're. 109 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 5: Seeing products that are Wall Street products being built on 110 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 5: the back of something that is not a Wall Street product, 111 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 5: which is Bitcoin. It's it's completely off their network. Bitcoin 112 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 5: is not controllable on any one website or anyone exchange 113 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 5: or anyone country. It is available to anyone that wants 114 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 5: to participate in at any time they want to participate, 115 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:38,320 Speaker 5: no rules, So you asked earlier, like past in the. 116 00:06:38,279 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 6: Old days, how is wealth? 117 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,400 Speaker 5: How is it fair that if you're not invited to 118 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 5: the Facebook IPO that you don't get to participate in 119 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 5: that launch. 120 00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 2: Well, bitcoin changes. 121 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 5: That you can participate straight away anybody, no matter how. 122 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 3: All right there, because I think people want to understand that. 123 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 2: I hope you were as interested in it as I am. 124 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 2: But hold on just sitting here listening therry. I want 125 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 2: to get right to this. 126 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 3: Why I'm trying to answer a lot of bitcoin questions 127 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,400 Speaker 3: I get from listeners. And I'm not suggesting you run 128 00:07:17,400 --> 00:07:19,559 Speaker 3: out and invest in bitcoin. That's not what I'm saying 129 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 3: to do. That's not a sales picture or anything. I 130 00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 3: like to know a lot of things about a lot 131 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 3: of things. I've had my gold guy on, Kenny Duncan 132 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 3: at us Coins in Houston to talk about gold and 133 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 3: commodities and why the price we hit an all time 134 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 3: high as it last week went up to about thirty 135 00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 3: two hundred. I believe it was. I don't follow the 136 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 3: commodity prices closely, but I like to have a general idea. Heck, 137 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 3: I like to know what we sell them for at 138 00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 3: a bushell. I do try to keep up with the 139 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 3: price of oil because I live in Houston, and for 140 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 3: our Houston and Tulsa and the like, listeners is a 141 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 3: big part of our lives. So I try to know 142 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 3: a little bit about everything. But many people in today's 143 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 3: world of volatility of the stock market, which is not 144 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 3: necessarily a bad thing by the way, that they're interested 145 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 3: in looking at at alternate, you know, diversifying. If you 146 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,600 Speaker 3: put all your eggs in one basket, then that's a 147 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 3: dangerous thing. And if that's the stock market, then you 148 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 3: end up getting mad at Trump overdoing things that are 149 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 3: good for the overall country but might cost the stock 150 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:24,120 Speaker 3: market for a minute, and then you're skewing your view 151 00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 3: of his actions not based on whether they're good for 152 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 3: our country, but whether they're good for your stock portfolio today. 153 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:34,439 Speaker 3: And that's a bad way to review our nation's policies 154 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 3: and wars and the like. So Tilman Holloway the Archpublic 155 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,280 Speaker 3: dot Com, I don't think you were finished with your answer, 156 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 3: and I think it's an important question. So if you 157 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 3: could re ask it in a way that you deal 158 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 3: with this more than I do explaining this to people, 159 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:54,400 Speaker 3: and I appreciate you taking the tone of not talking 160 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 3: over our head. I know that's hard for you to 161 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 3: do because you're an expert in it, but that's what 162 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 3: I want and that's what our listeners want. 163 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 6: Well. 164 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 5: The value proposition of bitcoin is that it's for the people. 165 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:09,719 Speaker 5: So if the value proposition can't be conveyed simply, then 166 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 5: it's failed its mission. And back to access financial systems. 167 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 5: When you have a central party that's in charge, you 168 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:24,800 Speaker 5: have financial offerings with limited access based upon your net worth. 169 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 5: Here's the prime example. A certain segment of the US 170 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,760 Speaker 5: population is relegated to be bankless. They have to go 171 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:35,960 Speaker 5: to payday loans and cash their checks for their work. 172 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 5: Then you have the bankable folks. Then you have people 173 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 5: who can get loans with their signature. There's this wide 174 00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 5: range of financial literacy and capabilities, and based upon where 175 00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 5: you fall in that range, will you're limited to what 176 00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 5: those offers those central parties are offering you? 177 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:56,440 Speaker 6: Is it pertains? 178 00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 5: The access bit coin is completely different they bitcoin. If 179 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,160 Speaker 5: you want to contribute to the network, if you don't 180 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 5: have money to buy bitcoin, get into mining. You can 181 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 5: literally take a computer and you can start contributing to 182 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 5: the network and it will pay you in bitcoin. Because 183 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:16,920 Speaker 5: it values you. Your contribution means something. And if you have capital, 184 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:21,040 Speaker 5: ask yourself the question, how many of my investments are 185 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 5: denominated outside of the US dollar? And is that a 186 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:27,679 Speaker 5: good practice If I'm going to be diversified against weakness 187 00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 5: in the US dollar? 188 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:29,480 Speaker 2: If if there's if. 189 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 5: We're going to be printing five trillion dollars of capital 190 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:36,960 Speaker 5: over the next few years, which we are, that's going 191 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:39,880 Speaker 5: to drive the value of each dollar down. And so 192 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 5: where do you invest when the dollar is going down 193 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:44,800 Speaker 5: in value? 194 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 6: And ask yourself, is there something that I. 195 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:51,240 Speaker 5: Have exposure to that provides me the same benefits that 196 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:54,560 Speaker 5: bitcoin provides me, that I have control over it. That 197 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 5: it does not move with the stock market. It's even 198 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 5: though the stock market's been getting crushed, it's up pointy 199 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 5: five percent over the last month. So it's inversely correlated. 200 00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 5: It's not it's not like anything else. 201 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 2: That you hold. 202 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 5: And diversification, to your point earlier, is a good practice 203 00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:12,040 Speaker 5: for anyone. 204 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,719 Speaker 2: So if you don't own any you. 205 00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 6: Know, start as small. 206 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 2: As you want to. Don't don't like I. 207 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 5: Tell people who are just starting out, and I would 208 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 5: tell this to a lot of youth. 209 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 6: If you don't have the discretionary. 210 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 5: Income to invest in it on a monthly basis, or 211 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 5: buy some bitcoin then go do some odd jobs. You 212 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 5: use the sweat of your brow to just dabble in 213 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 5: it so that you can see if it's for you, 214 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 5: see the value proposition that it provides you. And once 215 00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 5: you've used it, if it doesn't change your mind, then 216 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 5: you know you're that much smarter and you can speak 217 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 5: to it that much more intelligently. And it may not 218 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 5: be for you, but it's for a lot of people, 219 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 5: and Wall Street has said it's for them. And so 220 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 5: if you're seeing corporations adding it in much much larger 221 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 5: quantities and we've ever seen in history before, then one 222 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 5: would assume that the price would have to go up 223 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 5: with that demand. And that's why I think, you know, 224 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 5: it provides a risk reward ratio or a potential reward 225 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:13,959 Speaker 5: that way outweighs the resk. 226 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 3: President Trump is a master negotiator. You see that in 227 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 3: the Art of the Deal, and you see that in 228 00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:24,600 Speaker 3: everything he's ever done. You saw it politically, the deals 229 00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 3: he would cut to win votes, the deals he would 230 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 3: cut to get support, the deals he cuts to get 231 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 3: Ukraine in Russia to the table, and he will get 232 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 3: a deal done, and I think he'll get a deal 233 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 3: done with Iran. And it's amazing how he does that, 234 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 3: and you see it, but it shouldn't be that amazing. 235 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:46,000 Speaker 3: It's simple basic human instinct. I say that Trump operates 236 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 3: on a scale like if you're at the dog park 237 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 3: and you're watching dogs and how they interact. He understands 238 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 3: the atavistic nature of human beings at their very core. 239 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,240 Speaker 3: Whether he has to bully you or seduce you, he 240 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:01,080 Speaker 3: will do whatever it takes to get what he needs 241 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 3: out of you at that moment. But there is something 242 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:09,040 Speaker 3: fascinating going on with President Trump, and at the very 243 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 3: time that he's criticizing the FED, and that's monetary policy, folks. 244 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 3: That's the people who churn out all this cash that 245 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 3: creates inflation over a period of time, and now in 246 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 3: order to deal with inflation, they've withheld the cash in 247 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 3: order to drive inflation down. But that means that you 248 00:13:28,679 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 3: can't borrow money to buy a house, a car, a furniture, 249 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 3: or any number of other things. And what he's doing, 250 00:13:34,760 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 3: this is Trump one oh one, This is Trump masterclass. 251 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 3: Is he says the FED is the reason for the problems, 252 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 3: not the tariff. The tariffs are not our problems. It's 253 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:47,080 Speaker 3: the Fed and these interest rates. And in that sense 254 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 3: he's right, But he also says, and I'm going to 255 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:58,600 Speaker 3: make us a crypto superpower, a bitcoin superpower. That's sort 256 00:13:58,640 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 3: of like, how many of you out there ever had 257 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 3: a situation, girls, ladies, I'm many of you out there 258 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 3: ever said you know, Tommy's not paying enough attention to me, 259 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 3: and I don't like that. So you know what I'm 260 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,079 Speaker 3: gonna do. I'm gonna tell Tommy, hey, let's cool this 261 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:15,960 Speaker 3: thing for a little bit. 262 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 2: And you go. 263 00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 3: To his favorite hangout with his buddies, and you go 264 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 3: there with Billy, and he sees you with Billy. Now, 265 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 3: he might kill Billy, he might hate you forever and 266 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 3: never have anything to do with you, or he might 267 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:33,320 Speaker 3: just say, you know what, I better put a ring 268 00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 3: on it. I'm gonna end up losing her. You make 269 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 3: him a little jealous and show him you have an 270 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 3: alternative if you're if you're selling your house and you're 271 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 3: asking five point fifty for it and somebody comes in 272 00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 3: at four eighty five and you go, not only will 273 00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 3: I not accept that, but just so you know, we've 274 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,480 Speaker 3: got another guy, and he's coming in to see it 275 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:56,680 Speaker 3: tomorrow and it's his third showing and he's saying it's 276 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 3: going to be a full price offer. Okay, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 277 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 3: we'll do that too, take. 278 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 2: It off the market. 279 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 3: Right now, Trump is using bitcoin as an alternative to cash, 280 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 3: to green money, and that's going to have an effect 281 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 3: that's going to drive up bitcoin. I don't make, I 282 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 3: don't make anyway, let's continue our conversational Moon can you 283 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 3: ask Tooman if you can hang. 284 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 2: On here, But Michael Berry show what I didn't expect 285 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 2: to spend the whole show on bitcoin. 286 00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 3: But let's be honest, what Nancy Pelosi or Jasmine Crockett 287 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 3: said today or yesterday is not really meaningful in the 288 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 3: long term sense. 289 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 2: It's really not. It's it's the inside. 290 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 3: Baseball of of who said Nana Nana boo boo. And 291 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 3: this is important. We're talking about financial systems and payment 292 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,800 Speaker 3: systems and transactions and government involvement in it all. And 293 00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 3: I don't want to be boring, and I don't want 294 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 3: to only talk about the things that we ought to 295 00:15:55,600 --> 00:15:58,080 Speaker 3: be talking about because they're the most important. But I 296 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,040 Speaker 3: do think we ought to ever saw often try to 297 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 3: work them in and learn a little something. 298 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 6: No. 299 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:08,800 Speaker 3: Tillman Holloway is our guest.

And he's explained the system to me 315 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,400 Speaker 3: to the level apt Finally, after years of not caring, 316 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 3: paid attention to it, and now it's one of the 317 00:17:06,760 --> 00:17:07,200 Speaker 3: things that. 318 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:08,360 Speaker 2: I read about every day. 319 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 3: Find it very very interesting, and hopefully some of you 320 00:17:11,359 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 3: do as well. Tom and I can't remember where we 321 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 3: left the last segment. I'm hoping you do because you're 322 00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:22,959 Speaker 3: younger than I am. 323 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,919 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, I can tell you the volatility that you 324 00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 5: spoke to earlier is an asset of this market and 325 00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:32,399 Speaker 5: we've seen the traditional markets have that same volatility, and 326 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,960 Speaker 5: so what we've tried to do at by the way, 327 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 5: we've got you can go to the archpublic dot com 328 00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 5: or archpublic dot com.

We've created the software to help 343 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 5: people own bitcoin and to help people get into something 344 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,119 Speaker 5: that over the last sixteen years. 345 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 6: Has been somewhat difficult and. 346 00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 5: Had a steep learning curve to get in. We try 347 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 5: to make it very, very simple. We will help set 348 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 5: up We have a concierge division that can help set 349 00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 5: up instances and set up the software for you. But 350 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 5: once you set it up, it's a set it and 351 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 5: forget it and you look back over, you know, periods 352 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,199 Speaker 5: of time and you're very happy with the fact that 353 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,200 Speaker 5: you had something working on your palf.

It does it for you, and 363 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 5: we can show you how to use it. 364 00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 3: Let me hold you there for a moment. So one 365 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,640 Speaker 3: of my very dear friends is a guy named Ike Claypool, 366 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,880 Speaker 3: and we played pickleball a lot together and our kids 367 00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 3: are the same age, and he has a son at 368 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 3: ut and he has another son at Georgia. It's a 369 00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:33,400 Speaker 3: little older than our kids. And beautiful wife. They've been 370 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 3: married forever. He started at Arthur Anderson or Anderson Consulting. 371 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:43,679 Speaker 3: He's an accounting guy, as a fundamentals guy, and he 372 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,640 Speaker 3: became a day trader, I don't know, twenty five years ago. 373 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 3: He's a little bit younger than me, and that's what 374 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 3: he does. And he's a day trader of futures and 375 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 3: the like. 376 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 2: And he is glued to. 377 00:19:56,080 --> 00:20:00,080 Speaker 3: His computer when the stock market is open because he 378 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 3: has to execute trades. And we talk a lot about 379 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 3: executing trades in. 380 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 7: Time. 381 00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 3: They put in a big pipeline from Chicago to New 382 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 3: York because the difference between being able to execute your 383 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:22,920 Speaker 3: trade in one eighth of a second or point one 384 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 3: of a second is could mean billions of dollars, right, 385 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 3: it's the speed, and we're talking about nano second differences. Well, 386 00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,360 Speaker 3: that's because when those trades are happening, because he wants 387 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 3: to hit this. He wants to sell at this price 388 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 3: or buy at this price, buy the dipton and sell later. 389 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 3: That is so important that it happened at that specific moment. 390 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:47,280 Speaker 3: Can you speak to I've got a minute and a 391 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,960 Speaker 3: half left. Can you speak to how what you do 392 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 3: is important because unlike the stock market, the bitcoin market 393 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 3: is open twenty four hours a day. So you set 394 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,120 Speaker 3: that price and go to bed, and if it hits 395 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:59,679 Speaker 3: that you buy or sell whatever you've instructed it to do. 396 00:20:59,720 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 2: I thought that was fascinating. 397 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right, And so we can work off of percentages. 398 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 5: So let's say you go to sleep at night and 399 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 5: you have a percentage in there of if the market 400 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 5: drops on a six hour candle of more than five percent, 401 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,240 Speaker 5: I want to buy X number of dollars a bitcoin. Well, 402 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:21,920 Speaker 5: you're asleep and you have that parameter set, and if 403 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,159 Speaker 5: that event occurs, you wake up the next morning and 404 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 5: you're very happy because you bought the dip that you 405 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 5: could not otherwise have purchased. And so the market doesn't 406 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 5: care about when you want to be awake and when 407 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:34,719 Speaker 5: you want to be at your computer. The market presents 408 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:39,440 Speaker 5: opportunities to buy and accumulate all the time and when 409 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 5: you kind of least expect it. And so you having 410 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:45,600 Speaker 5: automation sit there and wait for those events to take place, 411 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 5: is going to give you not only the opportunity to 412 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,679 Speaker 5: actually enter those positions, but when you enter those positions, 413 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 5: to your point, automation interspositions faster than any human can 414 00:21:58,119 --> 00:22:01,840 Speaker 5: click the mouse and put in the prim So you're 415 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 5: getting the best price fills at those varying rates or 416 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:07,600 Speaker 5: at those varying time points. 417 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 2: So that really matter. 418 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 5: And so over time those changes accumulate and they make 419 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 5: a big, big difference. And so we've got customers, like 420 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,399 Speaker 5: I said, that are using our free product and doing 421 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 5: very very small incremental investing in bitcoin with our product, 422 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 5: and we help them do that. And then we also 423 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 5: have institutional clients and companies and people who have companies 424 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,879 Speaker 5: that want to add bitcoin at a significant rate to 425 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,439 Speaker 5: their balance sheet. Well, if you're behind the curve and 426 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 5: you don't own any bitcoin and you want to accumulate 427 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 5: a lot, there's risk in how many times you buy in. 428 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 5: So if you chose to put a million dollars in 429 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:50,280 Speaker 5: the market today, well you're tied to the eighty. 430 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:51,440 Speaker 2: Five thousand dollars price tag. 431 00:22:51,960 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 5: If the price goes down to sixty five, you're down 432 00:22:54,640 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 5: a considerable percentage. Whereas if you had a schedule and 433 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 5: an automated schedule that took advantage of dips that got 434 00:23:01,000 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 5: that million dollars placed over a period of two months, 435 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,360 Speaker 5: based upon when the opportunity has presented themselves. Then you're 436 00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 5: gonna have a blended rate of entry versus a fixed 437 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,400 Speaker 5: point of entry, and that's going to reduce your risk. 438 00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 5: That's just a much more prudent way. It's called dollar 439 00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 5: cost averaging. But this is an intelligent way to dollar 440 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 5: cost average and to do it without you having to 441 00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 5: sit there and mail. 442 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 3: I'm up against a break, my man. I find what 443 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,960 Speaker 3: you say fascinating. I hope others do as well. You 444 00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 3: can find him at archpublic dot com or you can 445 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:34,119 Speaker 3: always email me and I'll connect you to those folks.

It's the use of a song or 450 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 3: a sound at a certain time to create a mood. 451 00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 3: There's something called a late motif in Broadway or West 452 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:02,120 Speaker 3: End musicals, they would use that. If you've seen cats, 453 00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,880 Speaker 3: you know that there is the song for the jellical cats, 454 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 3: or there's there's memory that creates a certain mood, or 455 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:17,679 Speaker 3: if you've seen what's the one with the half a 456 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,120 Speaker 3: mask Phantom. 457 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 2: Of the Opera. 458 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 3: You know that when you're in the underground layer, there 459 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:30,879 Speaker 3: is a certain sort of tense, unsettling undertone to the 460 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:34,159 Speaker 3: music that is consistent that puts you back into that 461 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 3: environment in your mindset back into that environment or avida. 462 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:42,199 Speaker 3: All of those Sir Timothy Rice and Sir Anthony not 463 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 3: Sir Anthony Hocketts, Andrew Lloyd Webber, they are brilliant at 464 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:51,159 Speaker 3: the use of what's called the late mortif. But sonic 465 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:56,200 Speaker 3: branding means that this song should cue you to the 466 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 3: end of our show for the week. Now, we do 467 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 3: do a Saturday pod cast, So if you're cleaning out 468 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:03,639 Speaker 3: the garage one of my favorite things to do on 469 00:25:03,640 --> 00:25:06,679 Speaker 3: a Saturday. I know it's boring, lame, it's true, or 470 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:08,880 Speaker 3: gardening or riding your bike or whatever else you're doing, 471 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 3: you could put your headsets in and go to our 472 00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 3: podcast and listen to Saturday podcast, which we make fresh. 473 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,200 Speaker 3: It's not a rebroadcast of the show, but I thought 474 00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 3: we'd use this last segment. I was thinking to my 475 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:26,640 Speaker 3: mom earlier, and my mom was not a big girl necessarily, 476 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:27,720 Speaker 3: but you'll understand why. 477 00:25:27,760 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 2: In a moment. 478 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 3: A star of he Haw, which I grew up loving, 479 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 3: named Bertha Louise Habel has died, and she went by 480 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,199 Speaker 3: Lulu on the show. She's a big girl, and she 481 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 3: called herself the fat girl because that's how people remembered 482 00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:46,560 Speaker 3: her on the show. And I got to thinking, you know, 483 00:25:46,960 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 3: she went from Bertha to Lulu. If you're going to 484 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:53,520 Speaker 3: pick a stage name, you went from one fat girl 485 00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 3: name to another big girl name. Bertha Louise Habel was 486 00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 3: born on May sixth, nineteen four forty six. She was 487 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:07,439 Speaker 3: raised in an orphanage. Nineteen sixty four, she made a 488 00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 3: living as Lulu Roman, the world's biggest Go Go dancer. 489 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,520 Speaker 3: You know, you got to kind of half admire that 490 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 3: she was Lizo before Lizo was Lizo before there was 491 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:18,640 Speaker 3: a whole body positive. 492 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 2: You're fat, and that's wonderful thing. 493 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,320 Speaker 3: And buck Owens in all his genius and boy, he 494 00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:26,159 Speaker 3: was one hell of a businessman. He Conway twenty, some 495 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 3: of these guys were Charlie Pride, were really good businessmen. 496 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 3: Buck Owens discovered her and put her on he Haw, 497 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,879 Speaker 3: and in nineteen seventy one, she was arrested on a 498 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 3: drug possession charge and sentenced to four years in jail, 499 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:44,439 Speaker 3: and two years later she converted to Christ and was 500 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:47,439 Speaker 3: able to win back her job on he Haw and 501 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 3: her singing career took off. That became her ministry. She 502 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 3: allowed herself to be used for good and she had 503 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,919 Speaker 3: a very successful career in gospel music. It's a wonderful 504 00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 3: story of redemption.
