00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 2: podcasts about work are boring, and sure they definitely can be,

24
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 2: but understanding of professional's routine shows us how they achieve

25
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:25,280
Speaker 2: their success little by little, day after day. It's like

26
00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 2: banking with P and C Bank. It might seem boring

27
00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,000

00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:33,920

Speaker 2: P and C Bank National Association Member FDIC.

33
00:01:51,680 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 3: So speaking of a big care, what about like micro

34
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:58,840
Speaker 3: Strategy who Yeah, they said, have been making five hundred

35
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:02,559
Speaker 3: million dollars a day on Bigcoin. So like companies like that,

36
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,760
Speaker 3: would those be good to because those publicly traded companies stop?

37
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 3: Would those be good to invest in? And if so

38
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 3: at what?

39
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 1: At what price?

40
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 4: I think it's a good.

41
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 5: Way to invest in bitcoin in a non direct fashion.

42
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,400
Speaker 5: It's been really interesting to see the bitcoin minus not

43
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:26,720
Speaker 5: rally as much as bigcoin has. But yeah, I think

44
00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 5: I keep saying that Michael Saylers and New Kathy was

45
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,080
Speaker 5: so at some point, if y'all cared about Kathy because

46
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 5: she originated this bigcoin institutional strategy, y'all should go send

47
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:37,120
Speaker 5: her a note and tell her thank you.

48
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:38,919
Speaker 4: Mike.

49
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 5: But Michael strategy is a good way to get some

50
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:48,160
Speaker 5: exposure to it. I know I've gotten killed about my

51
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 5: Square take, but if you look at some of the

52
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 5: things Square is doing, yeah, may want to keep your

53
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,720
Speaker 5: eyes on what Jack and them are doing. I don't

54
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 5: know if he went and kissed the rain and yet

55
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 5: and if he's in there in a circle, uh, and

56
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:02,680
Speaker 5: if him and Elin had made up, But if so,

57
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 5: Square shit bounced. But they they've been doing pretty well.

58
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 5: But isn't And I love Michael Taylor, but isn't five

59
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:16,080
Speaker 5: hundred million a day like one hundred and forty billion

60
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 5: dollars or something like that.

61
00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 1: In a quarter? You're talking like Amazon numbers.

62
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 4: Did he say five hundred million today?

63
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 1: That's a lot.

64
00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,239
Speaker 4: That's Apple's doing ninety four billion a year.

65
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:33,080
Speaker 1: That's a lot.

66
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,000
Speaker 5: So maybe it was five hundred a month. I don't know. Well,

67
00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 5: we'll see when a report comes out. But micro strategy

68
00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 5: is a good way to get exposure to bitcoin. If

69
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,880
Speaker 5: you can't afford it at ninety thousand per coin for sure.

70
00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, we talked about some ETFs to if you're not

71
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 2: in bitcoin, obviously with black Rock over the past year,

72
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 2: and they've done an ethereum one as well.

73
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: But yeah, when I started.

74
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 2: Looking at the economy that goes around bitcoin, obviously you've

75
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,480
Speaker 2: seen what coin has done. Coin Base, which is publicly

76
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 2: traded micros strategy has just been incredible. But Square, like

77
00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 2: I said, man and we had this conversation a little earlier,

78
00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:14,000
Speaker 2: but if you watch what it's doing right, this is

79
00:04:14,040 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 2: still a fintech company. But their commitment that they made

80
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 2: in twenty twenty, which at the time even Jack Dorsey

81
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 2: apologized for. He said, like, we're not going to continue

82
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,560
Speaker 2: doing this. They're commitment into bitcoin is now starting to

83
00:04:25,560 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 2: pay off. And it's not because they're selling pit coin

84
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,240
Speaker 2: to they're trading it. It's actually because they actually sell

85
00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 2: the equipment for firms that mine it. So this is

86
00:04:33,440 --> 00:04:37,280
Speaker 2: another business that's being built around the economy of cryptocurrency

87
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 2: and bitcoin specifically, which is interesting because it plays a

88
00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 2: part in the AI development too, which is absolutely we

89
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 2: don't even look at it right At the time, we

90
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,680
Speaker 2: were trying to figure out when we're mining bitcoin, how

91
00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,720
Speaker 2: can we do it faster? What are the semiconductors that

92
00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:53,680
Speaker 2: can help us do it? Those semiconductors now turn into

93
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 2: what we're going to be used, and now they are

94
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 2: used for artificial intelligence. Right, so we're talking about the

95
00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 2: nanometer chip, we're talking about five, we're talking about three.

96
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 2: So Square has actually created the three nanometer mining chip

97
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,839
Speaker 2: four bitcoin, and I think everybody needs to pay attention

98
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,719
Speaker 2: to that because that's what's going to be used very shortly.

99
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 2: I think they start they created in April of last year,

100
00:05:15,560 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 2: but it's starting to be de deployed now and the

101
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 2: largest bitcoin minor, which is corz Core Scientific, they're using

102
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 2: it exclusively. And so when we're watching Square, this is

103
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:29,480
Speaker 2: not just a fintech company now, right they've changed their

104
00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,159
Speaker 2: name to block because of the blockchain, but we're starting

105
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 2: to see the impact that bitcoin and cryptocurrency specifically is

106
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:39,280
Speaker 2: having inside of his business. They're not just relying on Hey,

107
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 2: we were a fintech company. Now cryptocurrency has his fingerprints

108
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,560
Speaker 2: all over this company. And if you look at this chart.

109
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:49,359
Speaker 2: I said this the other night, there's something interesting happened

110
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 2: over there. We're we're going to watch this and start

111
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:53,760
Speaker 2: this even more closely over the next couple of months.

112
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 5: It's crazy to change your name to block and get

113
00:05:56,560 --> 00:06:00,200
Speaker 5: blocked out the cryptocurrency industry because Elon Maddo.

114
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 4: You, yeah, the browards are really interesting.

115
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 1: Heat down. He actually came out and apologized.

116
00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 2: So now to see a year later, Hey, we're going

117
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,359
Speaker 2: to cut back on I think they were trying to

118
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 2: do Web five. They were like trying to be so

119
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,080
Speaker 2: far ahead and like, all right, let's just focus on

120
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 2: this because this is promising and we have something here.

121
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 1: Yeah.

122
00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,320
Speaker 5: I do like the one thing I do love about

123
00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,440
Speaker 5: Michael Sadler's strategy, though at least he's putting his money

124
00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 5: where his mouth is and investing heavily into it. I

125
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 5: know Citron had the report that came out. It was

126
00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 5: interesting to see his reply. I can't wait till the

127
00:06:35,440 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 5: reporting because I know they had some profit margin issues

128
00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 5: prior to but I'm looking to see when this report

129
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 5: comes out what the profit margin looks like as well.

130
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:49,839
Speaker 5: But everyone's just really redoing the Vanguard's strategy like this

131
00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 5: Bitcoin by bitcoin strategy on the institutional side reminds me

132
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 5: of bogos etf and Indexcellent strategy just at a different sector,

133
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 5: which has worked incredibly.

134
00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 4: Well for Vanguard and black Rock on State Street.

135
00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:11,320
Speaker 5: So we are in a currency and capital war from

136
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 5: the titans of business right now.

137
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,240
Speaker 4: Everybody on art is your competition.

138
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 6: An illegal alien from Guatemala charged with raping a child

139
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,800
Speaker 6: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from Al Salvador

140
00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:28,200
Speaker 6: accused of murdering a Texas man of Venezuelan charged with

141
00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 6: filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just

142
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 6: some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President

143
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 6: Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy Noman, the United States

144
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:44,440
Speaker 6: Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border

145
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:48,040
Speaker 6: crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and over

146
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 6: one hundred thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If you

147
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 6: are here illegally, your next you will be fine nearly

148
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:59,320
Speaker 6: one thousand dollars a day, imprisoned and deported. You will

149
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 6: never return. But if you register using our CBP home

150
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 6: app and leave now, you could be allowed to return legally.

151
00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:11,520
Speaker 6: Do what's right. Leave now. Under President Trump, America's laws,

152
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 6: border and families will be protected.

153
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 4: Sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security,
