1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,200 Speaker 1: Bitcoin is winning, institutions are in we've got ETFs going live, 2 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 1: governments are reacting. But there's a risk to bitcoin that 3 00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:10,000 Speaker 1: almost no one is talking about and has got nothing 4 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:11,559 Speaker 1: to do with the price. He's got nothing to do 5 00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,160 Speaker 1: with regulations, not even a market crash. And so today 6 00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: we're going to break down the biggest Bitcoin risk that 7 00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:20,959 Speaker 1: most people are completely unprepared for, why it's getting worse 8 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: as adoption grows, and how it quietly wiped out people 9 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:26,800 Speaker 1: who think they're safe, and of course what you actually 10 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 1: need to do now in order to avoid it. And 11 00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:30,760 Speaker 1: to do that, I'm going to sit down today with 12 00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 1: Ben from Bitcoin Sessions. He's one of the people who's 13 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 1: helped more bitcoiners actually secure their bitcoin than almost anyone 14 00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:39,360 Speaker 1: else that I know. So let's go ahead, just jump 15 00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:41,520 Speaker 1: right into it. First of all, Ben, thanks for joining 16 00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:43,240 Speaker 1: me today. It's a pleasure. We've never actually got to 17 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:44,880 Speaker 1: sit down and do this, so I'm excited looking forward 18 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:47,320 Speaker 1: to this. You've been a wealth of knowledge and really 19 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:51,000 Speaker 1: helping push people down the Bitcoin I don't even want 20 00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,160 Speaker 1: to say the rabbit hole, but maybe the sovereign stack. 21 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: We'll call it that. But let's say, as of right now, today, Ben, 22 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 1: Bitcoin's pretty much winning on a mapcro level. I mean, 23 00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,480 Speaker 1: institutions are here, ETFs here, Larry Fink from Black Rocks 24 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: saying five percent adoption. But from where you sit, working 25 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: directly with every day bitcoinners like you've been doing, what 26 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 1: do you think the biggest mistake that you're seeing people 27 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: make right now as adoption is accelerating. 28 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:20,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, So you know there's a lot of people that 29 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 2: have come in recently through you know, the kind of 30 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,480 Speaker 2: the TRADFI corridors, right they see, oh, I can get 31 00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 2: bitcoin through an ETF, As you said Larry Finks on it, 32 00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:33,880 Speaker 2: it's it's being normalized. You know, there's ETFs, there's treasury companies, 33 00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 2: and so people they'll look and they'll say, Okay, I 34 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 2: can get it in my traditional stock portfolio, and then 35 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:46,119 Speaker 2: that's it, and then I'm good. And I think it's 36 00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 2: a mistake to just stomp there entirely. You know, It's 37 00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 2: it's nice if this is your first little bread crumb 38 00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 2: leading you down the path. That's a great piece of 39 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 2: learning to begin with. But I think it's important that 40 00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: people want kind of realize why bitcoin is important. And 41 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 2: you talk about this a lot on your show, but two, 42 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:12,399 Speaker 2: how do you actually take advantage of this incredible technology, 43 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 2: which you know, in my opinion, is one of the 44 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 2: biggest leaps in technology that we've seen in our lifetimes. 45 00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 2: How do you actually participate in that and be using 46 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 2: it in a self sovereign way, Because let's not forget 47 00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 2: part of the reason that bitcoin is even needed in 48 00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 2: the first place is the control that the powers that 49 00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 2: we have and their ability to debase the currency. And 50 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 2: you know, bitcoin wouldn't be needed if everything was about board. Yeah, 51 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 2: but you know, so, how do you actually use bitcoin 52 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 2: in a way where you can be self sovereign and 53 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:54,920 Speaker 2: you can be secure, and you can actually make it 54 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 2: so whether it be an individual or whether it be 55 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 2: an institution or government, So it puts walls between them 56 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 2: and your self sovereign money in a way where even 57 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 2: if somebody were to try to extract coins from you, 58 00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 2: you're you're You've got a strong enough setup that you 59 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 2: you in some instances, can't even comply if you wanted to. 60 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 2: So I think it's very important that people just learn 61 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 2: there's there's the traditional financial tools that you can use, 62 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 2: but there's the truly self sovereign, unshakable own your wealth 63 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 2: aspect of bitcoin, and it's not nearly as difficult as 64 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 2: people think. 65 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 3: It's just new. 66 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's great. It's a great place to start. 67 00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: I think about when when you kind of sort of 68 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: break down value creation, what businesses do value creation? You 69 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 1: think about problem problem solving, and so then you think 70 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,280 Speaker 1: about the bigger the problem I solve for the more people, 71 00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: the more value that's created. So if I'm a brain 72 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:00,800 Speaker 1: surgeon or a heart surgeon, I've created a mense value 73 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: but for one person. But if I make personal computers, 74 00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 1: then I've created immense value for the whole world. And 75 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,560 Speaker 1: if you take like maybe the oldest problem in the world, 76 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,640 Speaker 1: which is how do I keep my property from being stolen? 77 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: So we have villages, and we have cities, and we 78 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: have kingdoms and we have countries to protect private property. 79 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 1: But now bitcoin gives us a way to protect our 80 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 1: private property without having to have all that. So it 81 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: seems like we should probably do that then, right, that's 82 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 1: kind of what you're saying. 83 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's it takes protecting one's wealth and it 84 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 2: gives you the tools to have superpowers in doing so. 85 00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 2: In the digital realm. Up till this point, pretty much 86 00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 2: if you have something of value, it's I need to 87 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 2: trust somebody else to deal with it. And Bitcoin changes 88 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 2: that script, flips that script entirely and gives you access 89 00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 2: to insanely secure tools, the likes of which puts you 90 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 2: on par or even better than some of the biggest 91 00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 2: institutions on the planet. You know, you have access to 92 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 2: the same degree of security for your bitcoin that Blackrock does, 93 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 2: and you can do it yourself for very cheap And 94 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 2: people don't realize this, but you can have that level 95 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 2: of security. 96 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: Now, speaking of Blackrock, a lot of people think that 97 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,840 Speaker 1: seeing Blackrock, the Evil Empire, the largest asset manager in 98 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: the world, coming into bitcoin, seeing institutions coming into bitcoin, 99 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 1: this mass adoption, if you will, is Wall Street's adoption 100 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:45,479 Speaker 1: is sort of co opting it. And so there's a 101 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: big battle and debate about that. I've even seen people 102 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 1: on x saying like I'm out, like now it's co opted, 103 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 1: it's over, which I think is insane. But where do 104 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: you see that kind of how would you reframe maybe 105 00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 1: this long long term inevitability, what's happening and sort of 106 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:02,880 Speaker 1: where we're at with that. 107 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, one of the most difficult things that people continually 108 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 2: have to grapple with in bitcoin, is that people you 109 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 2: don't like, even your enemies, are going to use bitcoin 110 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 2: if they're not already, and them using it and being 111 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 2: able to use it and not being excluded from that 112 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 2: system just means that it's stronger. 113 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 3: And more resilient for yourself. 114 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:31,440 Speaker 1: Right. 115 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,359 Speaker 2: That's a really hard thing for some people to grapple with. 116 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 2: And we've seen people rage quit over that time and 117 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 2: again i've seen people with the election of Trump. Well 118 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 2: it's public, so I'm just gonna I'll chat about it quickly. 119 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 2: But Mike Brock, Okay, he was at block under Jack 120 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 2: Dorsey was working there and everything, and he was a 121 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:56,920 Speaker 2: proponent of bitcoin. He came to some Human Rights Foundation 122 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 2: stuff and everything, and he just the other day Bitcoin over. 123 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 2: It's done, it's failed. It's garbage. But when you really 124 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 2: get down to the crux of what he wrote, it was, 125 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 2: you know, paraphrasing very simply, but people I don't like 126 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,800 Speaker 2: are using bitcoin. He's not a fan of Trump. Trump 127 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 2: kind of endorsed bitcoin and went to the crypto route 128 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:19,480 Speaker 2: and all that whatever. But again, like we see that, 129 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 2: but as you said, we're also seeing kind of hardened 130 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 2: self sovereign bitcoiner say it's been co opted on that 131 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:32,000 Speaker 2: Why because Wall Street, Blackrock, these institutions, these treasury companies, 132 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 2: so on and so forth. But the fact of the matter is, 133 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 2: no matter who else uses bitcoin, it doesn't preclude you 134 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 2: as an individual from being self sovereign and holding the 135 00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 2: fruits of your labor in a money nobody can print. 136 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 2: So yeah, I don't think people rage quitting over others 137 00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 2: using bitcoin is stopping, and I think we'll probably see 138 00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: more of it in the future. But at the end 139 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 2: of the day, every single person on this planet, if 140 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 2: they want to, can can go out and use bitcoin 141 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 2: and secure it if they choose to. You're gonna have 142 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 2: to reconcile the fact that people you don't like can 143 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 2: do that too. 144 00:08:12,280 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 1: The part that you opened with, I think was the 145 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: most powerful. It's not just that you have you ended 146 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,400 Speaker 1: with that you have to be okay with people you 147 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 1: don't like using it, But what you said at the 148 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 1: beginning was what you also have to recognize is that 149 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,880 Speaker 1: people you don't like using it actually makes it better, 150 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:29,920 Speaker 1: which is like, wow, okay, So it's not just I 151 00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:31,840 Speaker 1: have to be okay with it. It actually is good 152 00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 1: for me that they're using it, So I think that's 153 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: important to understand. And you know, like all things, they 154 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 1: start small and niche and cool and core, and then 155 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 1: eventually they get gentrified. You know, this area of town 156 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: gets blown out, This cool restaurant bar gets blown out. 157 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 1: You know, I'm from southern California, so action sports, you know, 158 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: skateboarding or surfing is core. And then it gets blown out. 159 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: And so you know, Bitcoin started with the cipher punk roots, 160 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 1: and now it's it's getting blown out. Right Now you 161 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 1: got black Rock in there, but it doesn't it doesn't 162 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,000 Speaker 1: change that Bitcoin is still there for the cipherpunks. I 163 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:10,520 Speaker 1: was in Prague and I was on a panel and 164 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 1: we were talking about this, and it's like when bitcoin started, 165 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:16,559 Speaker 1: it was just the cipher punks and it was an 166 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:21,079 Speaker 1: email newsletter and there was a dozen people. Today there's 167 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 1: ten thousand or more cipher punks working on it. And 168 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,199 Speaker 1: sure black rocks there too, but there's way more cipherpunks 169 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: today than there were in the beginning. And so yeah, 170 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,520 Speaker 1: how do you balance I guess both of those. 171 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, we're seeing both ends be built out. We're 172 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:43,599 Speaker 2: seeing ETFs and financial products being created. En mass you 173 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 2: can go and you can shop from a shelf full 174 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:51,320 Speaker 2: of those options. But at the same time, at the 175 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,680 Speaker 2: other end of the spectrum, we've never had more people 176 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:59,560 Speaker 2: working on open source projects that grant people the ability 177 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 2: to here their bitcoin in different ways, additional layers to 178 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,640 Speaker 2: be able to use it day to day in a 179 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 2: private way. We have an insane amount of projects. I 180 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:15,440 Speaker 2: just returned from the African Bitcoin Conference, and the use 181 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 2: case for people through the continent of Africa when it 182 00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 2: comes to bitcoin is very markedly different from what you 183 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,240 Speaker 2: would see at a Western conference. I went there not 184 00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,199 Speaker 2: a single mention of treasury companies and ETFs right obviously 185 00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 2: the entire weekend. But what was mentioned is our money's broken. 186 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:41,679 Speaker 2: I don't have a bank account. Transacting between countries is 187 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 2: nonexistent with our existing rails. If I have my local 188 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:51,120 Speaker 2: currency and I step outside of my border, it's literally worthless. 189 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 2: I cannot even exchange it. You know, my country has hyperinflation. 190 00:10:57,400 --> 00:11:00,520 Speaker 2: They're trying to impose CBDCs on me. All of these 191 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 2: are the real issues that are happening there. And these 192 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 2: people are not concerned that black Rock is also using bitcoin. 193 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 2: They're concerned that bitcoin is working for them and how 194 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:16,199 Speaker 2: do we inform the masses where we're from that this 195 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 2: can help them. And so it's important to know that 196 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 2: what's happening in the West isn't the same as maybe 197 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 2: what's happening in the global South. And just because one 198 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:30,839 Speaker 2: thing is in one use case, is being pushed to 199 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 2: the forefront at Western conferences doesn't mean that people that 200 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:40,559 Speaker 2: are using bitcoin for we'll say more cypherpunk ideals are 201 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 2: stopped from doing so. In fact, it's absolutely flourishing right now. 202 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:47,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's such a great point. I was on someone's 203 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 1: podcast last week and they're like a twenty eight year 204 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 1: old guy. He owns a gold company and he's definitely 205 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 1: a big time goldbug, and you know, he was just like, 206 00:11:56,360 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: you know, I just don't understand you know, bitcoin, because 207 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 1: the gold this and that. And he's like, I'll just 208 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,360 Speaker 1: buy my gold and I'll just stay here in America, 209 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: Like I'll just do that. And I'm like, listen, man, 210 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 1: Like America is four percent of the world's population, four percent, 211 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 1: Like so like you have to think bigger, and so 212 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,239 Speaker 1: we have something like bitcoin that's like this global monetary 213 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: regime change, and so it's like the US four percent, 214 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:26,920 Speaker 1: the West is even still a small percentage of the world, 215 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,840 Speaker 1: and like you're saying in Africa, in Afghanistan women can't 216 00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 1: even have bank accounts, or in North Korea no one 217 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 1: can have bank accounts, right, and so like thinking about 218 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: it in those bigger pictures. But I've heard you say before. 219 00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 1: I think you said that if bitcoin could go on 220 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 1: to go from wherever we're at close to one hundred 221 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 1: thousand today up to a million dollars, but maybe still 222 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: fail its mission. So like, what how could it fail 223 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 1: the mission? And what does winning actually look like? Then 224 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,320 Speaker 1: you've heard me talking about investing in layers and things 225 00:13:01,400 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: like the reason you have to work so hard is 226 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 1: because your money doesn't well. I want to invite you 227 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 1: to a special event.

Check out the 249 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 1: link down below. 250 00:14:03,040 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 2: Well, you know, I would say if bitcoin simply becomes 251 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 2: a store of value for people to invest in that 252 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 2: is entirely through regulated, custodied solutions, it's not it's not 253 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 2: a complete failure, but it's it's more of a failure 254 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 2: than I would like. You know, it's still a great 255 00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 2: way to you know, step outside of the rampant money 256 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 2: printing and the debasement and the extraction of the fruits 257 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 2: of one's labor. But you know that this is it's 258 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 2: just another thing being monetized for that purpose. It's a 259 00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,360 Speaker 2: new real estate, it's a new whatever. And and sure, 260 00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 2: maybe a generation gets the benefit of you know, similar 261 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:05,280 Speaker 2: type of situation where you know, the boomers with real 262 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 2: estate and that was an amazing bet an amazing thing 263 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 2: to be a part of. 264 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 3: Uh. 265 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 2: And maybe that's what it becomes. But for me, that's 266 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 2: not compelling. What's compelling is is dismantling this exploitative system 267 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 2: that we have where where you have the powers that 268 00:15:30,480 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 2: be that are able to dictate and siphon off wealth 269 00:15:34,520 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 2: and redirect it wherever they want and have an entire 270 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,600 Speaker 2: populace that is kind of a slip at the wheel 271 00:15:41,680 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 2: as to what's truly happening, and mistakenly pointing their fingers 272 00:15:45,680 --> 00:15:49,560 Speaker 2: at the vendor whose prices have gone up. I bought 273 00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 2: this from you. It's more expensive. You're the person to 274 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 2: blame when really like everything is going up because the 275 00:15:56,360 --> 00:16:01,560 Speaker 2: reality is the money is becoming less valuable. And so 276 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 2: to contrast that, I think success looks like bitcoin becoming 277 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 2: the money. But we have a huge hurdle to get 278 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 2: over to get to that point. I see a bit 279 00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 2: of that happening in places where the money is so 280 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 2: bad that people just decide, Okay, well I'm going to 281 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,720 Speaker 2: use this instead, like what do I have to lose? 282 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 2: But less in the West, And I worry that the 283 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:37,400 Speaker 2: West is in this kind of mid tier level where 284 00:16:37,440 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 2: it's inflation is bad and quality standard of living is dropping, 285 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 2: but not bad enough to make people act like there's 286 00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 2: being is the frog and the boiling pot of water 287 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:56,880 Speaker 2: kind of situation. So yeah, failing to me, or at 288 00:16:56,960 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 2: least failing more than I would like, looks like bitcoin 289 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:02,640 Speaker 2: just being another stock. 290 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,640 Speaker 3: Success to me looks like. 291 00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:12,199 Speaker 2: You eventually are living on a bitcoin standard and you 292 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 2: have privacy tools that you can use. And not only that, 293 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 2: but your average person has far greater privacy assurances than 294 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:25,440 Speaker 2: they do now. And the people whose job it is 295 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 2: to hold and protect capital for many many people. So 296 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 2: whether it be companies, institutions, governments, I think they should 297 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 2: have the maximum amount of scrutiny so on chain bitcoin 298 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 2: addresses that can be audited by everyone and see exactly 299 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 2: where the money is and where it's moving and all 300 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:49,720 Speaker 2: of that. Whereas your day to day person will be 301 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,719 Speaker 2: using you know, Layer two solutions that have you know, 302 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:58,640 Speaker 2: much better privacy e cash and stuff like that, where 303 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:02,320 Speaker 2: it's you can't release what's going on. That's the opposite 304 00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,680 Speaker 2: of what we're getting right now. It's like the government 305 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 2: is opaque as hell and your average person has to 306 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 2: report there's six hundred dollars Venomo transaction. 307 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:15,360 Speaker 1: I can't speak for Canada, but in the United States, 308 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: it's supposed to be a government of the people, by 309 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 1: the people for the people, and the government are public officials. 310 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:24,959 Speaker 1: So to the point that you're making all of that 311 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,719 Speaker 1: is supposed to be public. We are supposed to be 312 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 1: private citizens, so they are supposed to be public, and 313 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:33,919 Speaker 1: everything they do is supposed to be known and seen 314 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: and shown and have transparency. We as private citizens and 315 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: individuals should have all that privacy. But to your point, 316 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 1: it's reversed and they want to see my six hundred 317 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:47,640 Speaker 1: dollars venmote transaction, and we can't see how the billions 318 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 1: of dollars are being siphoned off in medicaid or whatever. 319 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 1: We're seeing right now going on. 320 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 2: The amount of corruption at the top again, and the 321 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 2: incentives are there right the incentives are there for people 322 00:18:59,720 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 2: to appropriate funds to steal from the masses and then 323 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 2: favor their friends and their businesses. 324 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:09,440 Speaker 3: And all that kind of stuff. There's just so much 325 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:09,679 Speaker 3: of it. 326 00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:14,160 Speaker 2: And then and then anybody who who may have been 327 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:17,560 Speaker 2: able to escape inflation and hold on to the money 328 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 2: nobody can print, it's like, oh, we're going to need. 329 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 3: To tax you on that as well. 330 00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 2: I've even saw there's a recent story where was it 331 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 2: was out of in October out of South Korea. The 332 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 2: tax office there actually said that they're now going to 333 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:41,119 Speaker 2: be targeting individuals where they say, if we think you 334 00:19:41,240 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 2: owe us money in regards to to bitcoin or whatever, 335 00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,639 Speaker 2: and we think that you have it in self custody 336 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 2: with hardware, we have no problem entering your home and 337 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 2: and looking for your hardware and seizing it and compelling 338 00:19:57,359 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 2: you to give up your your seat phrase or give 339 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,679 Speaker 2: up your pin to your device and everything. So I 340 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 2: did a whole video and like, if you know, I'm 341 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 2: not telling people to break the law or anything, but 342 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 2: like laws can suddenly be changed on you too, and 343 00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:18,639 Speaker 2: so like if you want a situation where something like 344 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 2: that happens and you don't think it's lawful, and you 345 00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 2: want them to have to actually prove their case and 346 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 2: point in court before they get a hold of your assets. 347 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 2: Because we see all the time civil asset forfeiture. It's 348 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 2: like we're going to steal your search first and then 349 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:44,639 Speaker 2: it's on you to then pay to prove the innocence 350 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 2: of the asset. It's not even yourself, like you don't 351 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 2: even have to be charged with a crime. It's like 352 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:52,639 Speaker 2: the asset is charged as being implicated in a crime 353 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 2: and you have to then prove. So I made a 354 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 2: whole video and like, how do you have a setup 355 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:02,520 Speaker 2: that is resilient enough that even if somebody kicks open 356 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,919 Speaker 2: your door and says, we know you have bitcoin, we 357 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 2: know you have a device here that is part of 358 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 2: a setup to secure it, how do you make it 359 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:16,399 Speaker 2: so that they cannot get their hands on it still, 360 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 2: So there's again as we were talking earlier, there are 361 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 2: tools out there that can at least put that wall 362 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:27,720 Speaker 2: in between where they don't get to steal and then 363 00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 2: have you argue to get it back. 364 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 3: They have to prove why they should. 365 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 1: Have Well, I want to have you walk us through 366 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: that because you are certainly the expert to do that. 367 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,040 Speaker 1: But just kind of going back to this main key 368 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 1: point here, so failure. So when you look through thousands 369 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 1: of years of monetary history, you see that it's typically 370 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: like an evolutionary process. So you find a cool rocker, 371 00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,440 Speaker 1: feather or ceashell, and you collect it, and then enough 372 00:21:52,440 --> 00:21:54,679 Speaker 1: people collected, so then you start storing value, and and 373 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 1: then enough people use that has money attributes it to 374 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 1: move to a medium exchange, and then if enough people 375 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:00,399 Speaker 1: use that, it can be a unit of count. So 376 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,679 Speaker 1: you sort of have this evolutionary process. And so I 377 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 1: think what you're saying is if bitcoin goes from the 378 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 1: collectible to the store of value and then it kind 379 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 1: of stops there, and maybe even worse, the store of 380 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:14,720 Speaker 1: value is stuck in institutional rails, then it's sort of 381 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 1: a failure if it doesn't actually continue the evolutionary process 382 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:23,920 Speaker 1: to becoming a medium exchange, I guess. So, so if if, if, 383 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,359 Speaker 1: if that's what you're saying, and then and then what 384 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 1: would cause it to stall out and stop there? 385 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 2: I think it's it's in the hands of of the individuals. 386 00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 2: It's in the hands of the bitcoiners. You know, at 387 00:22:42,600 --> 00:22:46,560 Speaker 2: some point somebody had to be a pioneer and say 388 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,639 Speaker 2: I'm going to treat bitcoin as a collectible. I'm willing 389 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 2: to uh pay a price for it, and and so 390 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 2: you know, a price was attached and people began to 391 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:03,919 Speaker 2: speculate on it. At some point somebody had to say, no, 392 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,400 Speaker 2: this is value, this is sound money, and I'm going 393 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 2: to treat. 394 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 3: It as a store of value. 395 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 2: At some point, somebody had to pioneer the way and 396 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 2: say I'm going to use this as my treasury. And 397 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:19,879 Speaker 2: in the same way, I think, at some point, and 398 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 2: it's already happening, some people have to even though we 399 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:31,080 Speaker 2: know that it's going to be incredibly valuable to hold 400 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 2: on to bitcoin in the long term, some people have 401 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 2: to forge the way and say I'm going to push 402 00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 2: it to the next step, which is using it as 403 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:47,320 Speaker 2: money as a medium of exchange. And so I think 404 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 2: that's incredibly important. We see these kind of local circular 405 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 2: economies popping up in different places. In fact, after this interview, 406 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:02,560 Speaker 2: I'm going to the local circular market that I created 407 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 2: in my sof so really that we've been running for 408 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 2: two years. And so I think it's it's just it's 409 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 2: so important because how do you become more than a 410 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,000 Speaker 2: store of value? How do you become not only more 411 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 2: than a store of value, but truly unshakeable in no 412 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,879 Speaker 2: longer having to rely on third parties to do things. 413 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:29,679 Speaker 2: And in my opinion, that is building communities where like 414 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 2: minded people understand this is better money and also are 415 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,639 Speaker 2: willing to trade their goods and services for that. And 416 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 2: that's kind of what we built here. And we see 417 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 2: this echoed in other places like Bitcoin Beach, and there's 418 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,159 Speaker 2: a whole map that you can look at of different 419 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 2: bitcoin circular economies popping up. 420 00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 3: So that's where I think we will. 421 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 1: It's a combination of things coming together. One is just time, 422 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: so allowing that evolutionary process. But you need the sale ability, 423 00:24:57,160 --> 00:24:59,399 Speaker 1: so you need enough people that will accept it to 424 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 1: make it liquid. You have, you know, in a lot 425 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: of countries in the United States, you have tax implications 426 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:09,200 Speaker 1: and so there's constantly being proposals to sort of get 427 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 1: over that hurdle. But then you also have the volatility issue. 428 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 1: I mean, big ones a fifty of all asset, which 429 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 1: is great. I wanted to go up fifty percent a year. 430 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:18,680 Speaker 1: I don't like it. I want to goes down fifty percent 431 00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:20,200 Speaker 1: a year as much. But that's what a fifty of 432 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 1: all asset is and so then you sort of also 433 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 1: have to sort of kind of keep those things in mind. 434 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,840 Speaker 1: But over time more people will accept it becomes more saleable. 435 00:25:27,840 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 1: Over time that asset value will get bigger and the 436 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,680 Speaker 1: ball will go down, which is bad in a sense 437 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: where it doesn't go up as much, but it can 438 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:37,639 Speaker 1: be used as medium exchange better. And then I am 439 00:25:37,680 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: hopeful that we'll see some of these tax implications change, 440 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 1: and if not, they might just be forced to change 441 00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 1: from the people using them. 442 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 2: And I'll I'll make a case really quick here for 443 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 2: while navigating that sounds tricky, here's here's my case for 444 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,240 Speaker 2: why I'm a crazy person and actually have been living 445 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,920 Speaker 2: on bitcoin. Ninety five percent of my income has been 446 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:08,639 Speaker 2: bitcoin since twenty twenty and I live on it based 447 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:13,880 Speaker 2: pretty much exclusively. My case is this number one tax 448 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 2: implications up and down? Oh jeez, what if there's a 449 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 2: capital gain event triggered? And okay, well, if you incur 450 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:29,120 Speaker 2: a taxable event and there's a capital gain to be paid, 451 00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 2: that means your money, your your day to day money 452 00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 2: has increased in purchasing power and you then have to 453 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 2: give back a portion of that increase to the government, 454 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 2: you're still up. And what that means in practice is 455 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 2: when's the last time that happened to your dollars? 456 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:52,880 Speaker 3: Obviously, like they don't. 457 00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:54,879 Speaker 1: Charge you're looking at what you get, not what you lost. 458 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. 459 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:58,360 Speaker 2: And so it's like saying I don't want to win 460 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:00,920 Speaker 2: the lottery because there'll be taxes on. It's like you're 461 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 2: still you're still doing better than you were. And on 462 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 2: the flip side of that, if there's a loss at 463 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:08,840 Speaker 2: the time when you when you spend your bitcoin, you 464 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,840 Speaker 2: can claim loss a capital loss on that as well, 465 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 2: which also not possible on the on the dollar, which 466 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,200 Speaker 2: does that perpetually forever. 467 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 1: Good point. So there's those. 468 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 2: Two things, uh and and then on top of that, 469 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 2: like it's it's not going to be as easy. It's 470 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,919 Speaker 2: ideological if you're going to make that that leap, but 471 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 2: it's not as difficult as one would think. And uh yeah, 472 00:27:36,000 --> 00:27:40,640 Speaker 2: you know I the in terms of volatility, I stand 473 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 2: out invoices. I get paid at the beginning of the month, 474 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 2: and the way that I avoid volatility in the short 475 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 2: term is as soon as the invoices come in, I 476 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,480 Speaker 2: know exactly what my expenses are for the month. I 477 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 2: just pay those right away and then the rest is 478 00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 2: long term savings, and it does an extra thing for 479 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 2: me down the line, is this bitcoin that I have, 480 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,680 Speaker 2: either you know, in my personal savings or as the 481 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 2: company treasury. If there's an expense that we're deciding on, 482 00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 2: it becomes do I actually want and really need this 483 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 2: thing or would it be better to save? And sometimes 484 00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 2: the answer is yes, it's important we should get this. 485 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:25,399 Speaker 2: Other times it makes me more conscientious about my expenses 486 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:26,080 Speaker 2: after the fact. 487 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean, and that's kind of the thing 488 00:28:28,000 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 1: with FIAT is that maybe some of the government officials 489 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,879 Speaker 1: wanted to continue to lose value, so they incentivize us 490 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: to spend, as if humans needed, as if humans need 491 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 1: incentive to spend. But the flip side of that is, 492 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 1: if your money can buy you more in the future, 493 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 1: could I just wait a little bit longer to where 494 00:28:44,480 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: it's cheaper for me? And so that's kind of the unlock. 495 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 1: And I'm just going to tell the audience real quick, 496 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,959 Speaker 1: that's great. Great for Ben. He gets paid in bitcoin. 497 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:53,840 Speaker 1: You don't, But you could do the same thing. You 498 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 1: just flip it. So he gets paid in bitcoin, he 499 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: converts what he needs to pay his bills into dollars, 500 00:28:58,280 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 1: saves in bitcoin, you get paid in dollars, you pay 501 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 1: with you million dollars con for the rest of bitcoin. 502 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 1: So you can do the same thing. You just it 503 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 1: just invert that exactly. Let's let's go back to the 504 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:11,320 Speaker 1: South Korea, kick your door down, what are you gonna do? 505 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: And and let's not even go to South Korea. But 506 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:16,480 Speaker 1: I've been seeing more and more and more headlines of 507 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:19,720 Speaker 1: people being targeted, you know, known crypto people being targeted, 508 00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:24,080 Speaker 1: home invasions, ranch attacks, as we will things like that. 509 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: So how do you and you work with them and 510 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 1: you have a you have a service where you help 511 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 1: people sort of kind of start using this self custody. 512 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,040 Speaker 1: So where does somebody start and then how do you 513 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,000 Speaker 1: think through like walking them into the process, and how 514 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:39,680 Speaker 1: should they evolve into that? Every day we see headlines 515 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 1: about inflation and dead and diminishing control over our own money. 516 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 1: That's why I always come back to bitcoin because it's 517 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,719 Speaker 1: built for generations, it's built for legacy. But protecting your 518 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: bitcoin legacy the right way is not always simple. It 519 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 1: demands discipline, focus, and the right partner. Now that's why 520 00:29:56,360 --> 00:30:00,120 Speaker 1: I personally use unchained Signature.

One where am 539 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 2: I going to obtain my bitcoin. And depending on the locale, 540 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 2: it's going to be different for everyone, but there's plenty 541 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 2: of options depending on your country and city and so 542 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 2: and so forth. Then it's the basics, like just dipping 543 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 2: your toe in. How do I get something as simple 544 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,440 Speaker 2: as a wallet on my phone or computer? And just 545 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 2: familiarizing yourself with I can, oh, I can download an app? 546 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 2: What are good apps to download? And if I break 547 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,080 Speaker 2: my phone or delete the app or something, how do 548 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 2: I actually practically recover access to my fond So just 549 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 2: getting your mind around that. Those are kind of your 550 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:42,880 Speaker 2: initial two steps. 551 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 1: Understanding what a key is and then understanding how to 552 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 1: back up the. 553 00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 2: Key exactly exactly. And so there's a common misconception, and 554 00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:55,520 Speaker 2: it makes sense with the name that we call a 555 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 2: bitcoin wallet, people think, oh, my bitcoin's in the wallet. 556 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,280 Speaker 2: That's not exactly how it works. Obviously, bitcoin is just 557 00:32:03,320 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 2: a global ledger of who owns one, So what the 558 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 2: hell's in the wallet? The wallet is a key to 559 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 2: your money, and so that key you can unlock your 560 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 2: money and send it wherever you like. And much like 561 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 2: a key, you can make copies of that key. So 562 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 2: when you set up a wallet, it'll say write down 563 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 2: these twelve words and keep them safe. That's literally a 564 00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 2: spare key, and so you can always if you delete 565 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 2: the app or break the phone, you can go back 566 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 2: and get those twelve words and access the money again. 567 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 2: But it's important since your key is information, then nobody 568 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 2: gets a copy of that information because then they can 569 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,160 Speaker 2: unlock what it unlocks, which is your money. So you know, 570 00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:46,800 Speaker 2: in terms of keys, we're talking about wallets on your 571 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 2: phone or computer. That would be known as a hot wallet. 572 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 2: So the keys are on something on a device that 573 00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:59,959 Speaker 2: is directly accessing the internet, which is okay for you know, 574 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 2: day to day spending small amounts stuff like that. Think 575 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 2: cash in your pocket, that's fine, but you. 576 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 1: Wouldn't walk around with your life saving in your pocket. 577 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 3: Exactly. 578 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:13,000 Speaker 2: You're not gonna you're not going to be stacking tens 579 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 2: of thousands of dollars into in cash in your pockets. 580 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:19,520 Speaker 1: And unless you've seen that guy walking around the ten 581 00:33:20,200 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 1: sacks together pocket. 582 00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, So so so then what's the next step from there, 583 00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 2: and that would be something called cold storage, and that 584 00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 2: simply means that the keys to your money are on 585 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:38,760 Speaker 2: a device that never directly connects to the internet, something 586 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,520 Speaker 2: like a cold card or a treasure or a jade 587 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:45,800 Speaker 2: basically just little devices. I'll hold up one as an example, 588 00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 2: but little devices that and they have many different form 589 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 2: factors where it literally just holds the keys to your 590 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,480 Speaker 2: money and keeps them safe, and when you need to 591 00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 2: access them, you plug it into a computer or scan 592 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 2: QR codes to communicate whatever it may be, or tap NMC. 593 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:05,080 Speaker 2: It just allows you to approve transactions. So those are 594 00:34:05,120 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 2: kind of your main three things where am I getting bitcoin? 595 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 2: Learn some basics about hot wallets on your phone, and 596 00:34:12,040 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 2: then decide on a piece of hardware to keep yourself secure. 597 00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:18,480 Speaker 2: There's there's more beyond that, yeah, for the you know, 598 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 2: somebody kicking in your door, but those are your starting points. 599 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, those are good. The other thing I'd say 600 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 1: is that it too much today. I see that people 601 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 1: lack any nuance in their thinking. So it doesn't have 602 00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:31,680 Speaker 1: to be one or the other, black or white, Like 603 00:34:32,080 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 1: you can have some of it on an exchange, and 604 00:34:35,480 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 1: then you could try to pull a little bit off 605 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 1: and do that and like you already said, like maybe 606 00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 1: some little bits amounts in your hot walt and something's 607 00:34:41,080 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 1: in cold water, and so you can start to spread 608 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 1: this around a little bit. It's like, it doesn't have 609 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:48,000 Speaker 1: to be all or nothing, you know, start with just 610 00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:50,120 Speaker 1: getting to bitcoin, Like, how about just start with that, 611 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,160 Speaker 1: and then like you said, how about a little bit 612 00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 1: into like hot stories. Okay, okay, now how about a 613 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:57,359 Speaker 1: little bit in the cold stories. And you're sort of like, 614 00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,239 Speaker 1: as you said, dip in your toe in the water, 615 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:01,640 Speaker 1: and you're sort of learning. And there's trade offs to 616 00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 1: all of these, right, So there's trade offs. So it's 617 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 1: not one is better than the other, they're better in 618 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 1: different circumstances. And so understanding that and realizing that whatever 619 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:13,759 Speaker 1: your stack looks like, it could be split up, you know, 620 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:17,080 Speaker 1: like I have it in multi sig, I have it 621 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 1: in a couple different single zigs. I have some on 622 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 1: a hot wallet, I got some on Venmo, I got 623 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:24,840 Speaker 1: some on river right like, and it's like kind of 624 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 1: look spread around, right, and it's all different use cases there. 625 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, of course, and again, as you said, like you 626 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:34,560 Speaker 2: don't have to go all or nothing right out the gate. 627 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:39,160 Speaker 2: Everybody learns step by step. And so when I see 628 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:44,800 Speaker 2: people that are criticizing other people for not being fully 629 00:35:44,880 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 2: self sovereign in the second they get into bitcoin, it's 630 00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 2: it's like, guys, this is not how people learn, and 631 00:35:50,120 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 2: we need to realize that if somebody's first foray into bitcoin, 632 00:35:55,239 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 2: you're like, all right, step one, you're gonna set up 633 00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,439 Speaker 2: a bitcoin node, and then you're gonna it's like they're 634 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:00,080 Speaker 2: already two. 635 00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 3: Around and out the door. 636 00:36:01,320 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, And so you don't want to make fun of 637 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 2: somebody who's just starting their learning journey. It's like it's 638 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:10,040 Speaker 2: like making fun of a child learning the alphabet because 639 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,920 Speaker 2: they haven't read human action yet, Like, come on, guys, 640 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 2: what do we do? 641 00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 1: Yeah? And I think it's important to like not go 642 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 1: past your technical limitations. And I made the mistake back 643 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:23,000 Speaker 1: you know, twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen, Bitcoin was cheap and 644 00:36:23,040 --> 00:36:24,560 Speaker 1: I was kind of thrown around like chick lits and 645 00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:26,880 Speaker 1: I was paying friends and bitcoin and I'd say, hey, 646 00:36:26,920 --> 00:36:28,279 Speaker 1: download this app. Let me send it to you. But 647 00:36:28,320 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 1: I never really gave them the education past that point. 648 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 1: And years later I check in it like, man, that's 649 00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:34,879 Speaker 1: probably worth a hundred thousand dollars, now do you still 650 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,319 Speaker 1: have that? And they're like I don't even know where 651 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 1: that phone is anymore or whatever, right, And so it's 652 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:43,480 Speaker 1: like now today it's like, well, how much time do 653 00:36:43,480 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 1: we have to spend with you? How technical do I 654 00:36:45,520 --> 00:36:48,200 Speaker 1: think you are? And I might just tell you just 655 00:36:48,239 --> 00:36:49,839 Speaker 1: to like open up account of river and just buy 656 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 1: it real quick, you know, or something, and then like 657 00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:53,160 Speaker 1: we can get to the next point later. So I 658 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 1: think it's important to understand that. But let's just talk 659 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 1: about the self custody, because that's important and it's scary. 660 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 1: So most of us are used to keeping money in banks. 661 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 1: We're used to having somebody else protect that money for us. 662 00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:06,799 Speaker 1: Of course, bitcoin gives us the ability to do that, 663 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 1: and I think we should. But what would be because 664 00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:11,839 Speaker 1: it is scary, and I'm sure that's why people hire 665 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 1: you because they're scared, what would you say the biggest 666 00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:17,719 Speaker 1: things that they should be scared of and they should 667 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:18,600 Speaker 1: just pay attention to. 668 00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:24,880 Speaker 2: Right, So, when it comes to when it comes to 669 00:37:24,920 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 2: an individual kind of messing up and losing bitcoin, what 670 00:37:29,719 --> 00:37:32,839 Speaker 2: are the common things that happen? So one of them 671 00:37:32,840 --> 00:37:36,279 Speaker 2: would be just not being aware of what you've done 672 00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 2: and unlocking yourself out of your bitcoin, screwing up, losing things, 673 00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 2: over complicating things in some instances. 674 00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 3: And so what I. 675 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:54,520 Speaker 2: Typically say to people is, as we alluded to dabble first, 676 00:37:54,719 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 2: become familiar is practice. Try a couple things, send some transactions, 677 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:07,040 Speaker 2: and revisit your setup either maybe every six months, but 678 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:11,279 Speaker 2: once a year is probably good, and just do a 679 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:16,080 Speaker 2: quick little audit of Okay, I've got this device, I've 680 00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:19,879 Speaker 2: got my back up, and this is where they are. 681 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:26,799 Speaker 2: And this person, family member, trusted person is aware of 682 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,280 Speaker 2: where I've kept this stuff too, so if something happens 683 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:31,880 Speaker 2: to me, my family knows where to find it and 684 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:35,719 Speaker 2: what to do. I do this little audit with my 685 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:38,320 Speaker 2: wife once a year. We go through and say, okay, 686 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:40,920 Speaker 2: very important. We want to make sure if anything happens 687 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:44,080 Speaker 2: to me or both of us, that the kids get 688 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:47,560 Speaker 2: what they need and all of that. So we just 689 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,480 Speaker 2: go through and we say, okay, this is here, this 690 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:52,360 Speaker 2: is here, this is how to access it, and we 691 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 2: left a note with family and how to get a 692 00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:56,320 Speaker 2: hold of everything. 693 00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,359 Speaker 1: That's a great tip, by the way, and that's not 694 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,560 Speaker 1: what I would have expected to hear from you. And 695 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,120 Speaker 1: I just want to pause there because that is super important. 696 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:07,880 Speaker 1: And myself, I've been guilty of just leaving things too long, 697 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:11,800 Speaker 1: and I like the fact of refreshing yourself to sharing 698 00:39:11,840 --> 00:39:14,640 Speaker 1: it with your friend's family loved ones. I would add 699 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 1: a third piece on there. And this is just something 700 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,759 Speaker 1: I've been thinking about lately before we start recording. I 701 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:20,080 Speaker 1: told you I've gotten to the point my kids have 702 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:21,719 Speaker 1: gotten a litle bit older where I'm not taking my 703 00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 1: wife and we were just coming back from a trip, 704 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:25,479 Speaker 1: and I was like, what if both of us died? 705 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:29,759 Speaker 1: And like sure, like my daughter, okay, calls our attorney 706 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:31,719 Speaker 1: and like, okay, they'll figure out how to get the 707 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 1: life insurance, and okay, they can figure out how to 708 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:37,360 Speaker 1: get some of the bitcoin, but what is she gonna 709 00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:40,719 Speaker 1: do with it? Like what is she going to do 710 00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:43,759 Speaker 1: with the money? And even like like what happens in 711 00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,160 Speaker 1: the what's the first step, what's the first thirty days? 712 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:48,319 Speaker 1: What's like so sort of like this set of instructions, 713 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:50,880 Speaker 1: and then even okay, so now you've got all this money, 714 00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 1: like now what do you do with it? So I've 715 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,239 Speaker 1: started to even think a longer term about creating those 716 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 1: instructions for them. So peace to add, but anyway, go 717 00:39:57,880 --> 00:39:58,560 Speaker 1: ahead and keep going. 718 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, So I mean, and again, what I'm talking 719 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 2: about here is just some of the basics, like if 720 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:07,160 Speaker 2: you have if you just have like a device in 721 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:09,400 Speaker 2: a backup then then you would kind of do that 722 00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:13,880 Speaker 2: self audit once in a while. You know, we've gone 723 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:17,839 Speaker 2: kind of beyond that. You mentioned multi sig, and we 724 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:22,280 Speaker 2: do indeed use multi sig, And if anybody is listening 725 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 2: that's unfamiliar with that, think of a regular bitcoin wallet, 726 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:28,799 Speaker 2: as you have a digital vault and you have one 727 00:40:28,880 --> 00:40:31,760 Speaker 2: key that opens it, maybe have backup keys just in case. 728 00:40:32,400 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 2: Multi sig would be like a digital vault that has 729 00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:38,840 Speaker 2: multiple key holes with different keys for each and you 730 00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:43,280 Speaker 2: need a certain number of those keys simultaneously to unlock 731 00:40:43,320 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 2: your money. So maybe you have three keys and you 732 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:49,040 Speaker 2: need at least two of those in order to access 733 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,319 Speaker 2: the funds. That means you can lose some stuff and 734 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:53,720 Speaker 2: still have access. 735 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:55,399 Speaker 1: And so it's like a war movie when they want 736 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 1: to like launch the nukes, they need two keys and 737 00:40:57,239 --> 00:40:58,680 Speaker 1: they have to like turn at the same time. 738 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:03,440 Speaker 2: Or something exactly exactly, And so it gives you, it 739 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,879 Speaker 2: gives you a couple things. So back to the South 740 00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:11,000 Speaker 2: Korea Tax office kicking indoors or whoever kicking indoors. When 741 00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 2: you have a multi sig with multiple keys and you 742 00:41:14,760 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 2: disperse those two different locations somebody getting access to one 743 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:22,400 Speaker 2: key does not give them access to all of your bitcoin. 744 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:24,800 Speaker 2: In fact, there's ways you can set it up where 745 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 2: getting access to one key they don't even know that 746 00:41:28,040 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 2: it's part of a multi sig. You could have like 747 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:32,400 Speaker 2: a decoy amount on that. So there's lots of different 748 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:36,680 Speaker 2: cool things you could do. But nonetheless, we've got set 749 00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:41,160 Speaker 2: up a multi sig with kind of an automated inheritance 750 00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:45,959 Speaker 2: part to it that triggers something, and I basically set 751 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:49,839 Speaker 2: it a year in advance, right, and I get a 752 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,359 Speaker 2: warning about two months beforehand, and. 753 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 3: This is all. 754 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:58,239 Speaker 2: This is all like I have unilateral control. There's just 755 00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:02,319 Speaker 2: an external company that has one key, and so they 756 00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,719 Speaker 2: can't run off with funds or anything like that. They 757 00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:08,360 Speaker 2: can only help sign a transaction. But it's all automated. 758 00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:10,879 Speaker 2: So if something happens to me and I'm not able 759 00:42:10,960 --> 00:42:15,720 Speaker 2: to bump that one year threshold forward each year, then 760 00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:18,399 Speaker 2: my loved ones will get an email that says your 761 00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:22,440 Speaker 2: inheritance is ready to claim download this application. And then 762 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:26,880 Speaker 2: I provided them with some very basic information. It's like 763 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:32,680 Speaker 2: three English words and a password, and just by having 764 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 2: that information they will be able to gain access to 765 00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:37,879 Speaker 2: the inheritance that was secured by that. 766 00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:40,360 Speaker 1: Multiple and the company will send them that email with 767 00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:42,400 Speaker 1: those three words you're saying. 768 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you can have multiple No, the company doesn't 769 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:46,959 Speaker 2: have the three words yeah. 770 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,120 Speaker 1: So this is you have to leave some other instructions 771 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 1: for them to get that from you, and then when 772 00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:52,640 Speaker 1: they get the email from the company, then they'll be 773 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:53,400 Speaker 1: able to complete that. 774 00:42:54,120 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 3: Exactly. 775 00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:58,279 Speaker 2: I give them the three words and the password, and 776 00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:00,839 Speaker 2: I can have multiple copies of this, you know, keep 777 00:43:00,840 --> 00:43:04,560 Speaker 2: this safe, keep a secondary copy here, whatever, but multiple 778 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 2: copies of it. Anybody getting a hold of that information 779 00:43:07,200 --> 00:43:09,719 Speaker 2: right now they can do nothing with. 780 00:43:09,800 --> 00:43:11,360 Speaker 1: Well, company, is that with helping that you do with? 781 00:43:11,680 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 2: So this is this is nunchunk. These are actually the 782 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:17,040 Speaker 2: guys that this is the same wallet we use during 783 00:43:17,080 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 2: the Canadian truck or protests. And they're the same guys 784 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:22,799 Speaker 2: that told the Canadian government to go shove it when 785 00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:24,800 Speaker 2: they requested a user information. 786 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:28,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so they're really Okay, So it's like a 787 00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:32,120 Speaker 1: multi sig. They keep a key. Every year, they send 788 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,319 Speaker 1: you an email. If you don't reply, then they'll send 789 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:37,239 Speaker 1: email to your loved ones. They have the second key, 790 00:43:37,280 --> 00:43:38,800 Speaker 1: and then they can get access to the funds. 791 00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:42,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly exactly. And so it's it's from from the 792 00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:48,560 Speaker 2: from the person receiving the inheritance is standpoint. It's very simple. 793 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 2: They get an email it says that they're ready to 794 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:54,520 Speaker 2: receive their inheritance. They type in three words a password, 795 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:56,239 Speaker 2: they now have access. 796 00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 1: I love it. A lot of services have this these days, 797 00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,440 Speaker 1: so if you're listening, you know, just go check with 798 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:03,480 Speaker 1: a lot of services. I just was talking with River 799 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:05,239 Speaker 1: that's who I use here in the US, and they 800 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 1: have something sort of built in. I know, Unchained has 801 00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:10,600 Speaker 1: like an inheritance. So there's a lot of a lot 802 00:44:10,600 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 1: of options out there, but it's definitely something I mean, 803 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:17,200 Speaker 1: you know, it's hard to wrap your head around, but 804 00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 1: I mean Michael Sailor talks about bitcoin as like a 805 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 1: thousand year asset, but we could at least think of 806 00:44:22,000 --> 00:44:23,799 Speaker 1: it as like one hundred year asset. Like this is 807 00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:25,239 Speaker 1: going to go a long time, and so you want 808 00:44:25,239 --> 00:44:27,360 Speaker 1: to really be prepared for that. And and because you 809 00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:29,160 Speaker 1: are taking custody of that, you need to make sure 810 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,399 Speaker 1: that you know you're able to pass that down. I mean, 811 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 1: you know, even if you had a bunch of stocks 812 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 1: and a bunch of accounts, you'd still want that listed 813 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:37,680 Speaker 1: for your errors, but because of the self custody point, 814 00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:42,359 Speaker 1: it becomes much more a much bigger deal, just real quick, 815 00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 1: for the for the for the advanced users. How do 816 00:44:45,560 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 1: we handle the kick down my door wrench attack, I'm 817 00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:52,040 Speaker 1: being interrogated, someone wants to steal my private keys of 818 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:52,560 Speaker 1: the government. 819 00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:56,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, absolutely So there's a number of things. So, 820 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:59,880 Speaker 2: I mean, the most resilient thing is a multi suc setup, 821 00:45:00,080 --> 00:45:04,440 Speaker 2: multiple keys, geographically distribute it because in that case, somebody 822 00:45:04,520 --> 00:45:07,800 Speaker 2: kick us open your door, you know, they get a 823 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 2: hold of a key, even if they know for sure 824 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:12,360 Speaker 2: it's part of a multi sig. It's like, yo, you're 825 00:45:12,800 --> 00:45:16,560 Speaker 2: you're buying a plane ticket. Yeah, there's no way for 826 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:19,359 Speaker 2: me to comply with you right now. Now beyond that, 827 00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 2: if you if you don't, if you maybe don't have 828 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 2: the technical expertise for a multi sig yet, or it's 829 00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:30,000 Speaker 2: you just don't have it's set up that way yet. 830 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:33,480 Speaker 2: But you want to make yourself resilient to physical coercion. 831 00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:36,720 Speaker 2: You know, I held up this thing earlier. This cold 832 00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:41,120 Speaker 2: card just an example of a hardware device. But some 833 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:44,279 Speaker 2: of these hardware devices have the ability to implement a 834 00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:48,520 Speaker 2: trick pin, so you have a regular pin to log in, 835 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,720 Speaker 2: but then you have like a trick pin that does 836 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:56,279 Speaker 2: something different if you enter it. And what you can 837 00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:59,040 Speaker 2: do with those trick pins is on the device I 838 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 2: held up here some of them. If you type it in, 839 00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:05,320 Speaker 2: it will look as if the device is blank and 840 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:09,040 Speaker 2: has never been initiated, or it will take you to 841 00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 2: a decoy wallet with you know, maybe a few thousand 842 00:46:12,239 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 2: bucks so they feel like they got something. Or you 843 00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:18,319 Speaker 2: can program it to the point where it literally the 844 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,840 Speaker 2: bricks the device and deletes all information on it, so 845 00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:24,480 Speaker 2: you can have different things. So okay, I'll just put 846 00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 2: in my pin and then it does the thing that 847 00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:27,680 Speaker 2: you programmed it to do. 848 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:28,880 Speaker 1: Do most devices have that. 849 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:33,239 Speaker 2: There's a bunch so I know that like cold Card, 850 00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:39,239 Speaker 2: you can really customize it and set different parameters. I 851 00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:45,320 Speaker 2: believe that Treasure and a couple others have different options. 852 00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:48,239 Speaker 2: I know the Ledger has like a different pin will 853 00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:51,240 Speaker 2: take you to different accounts. So yeah, there's there's different 854 00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:52,080 Speaker 2: ways of doing it. 855 00:46:52,760 --> 00:46:55,360 Speaker 1: But yeah, I think of it like I spent a 856 00:46:55,400 --> 00:46:57,240 Speaker 1: lot of time in Mexico and from the Mexico border. 857 00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 1: We have a house down there, so I'm done in 858 00:46:59,080 --> 00:47:01,680 Speaker 1: the Mexico a lot. You know. The good and bad 859 00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 1: is that you know, you can typically buy your way 860 00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:07,960 Speaker 1: out of trouble. The bad is they sometimes get you 861 00:47:07,960 --> 00:47:10,160 Speaker 1: into troubles saying this is your money, but you know, 862 00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:11,839 Speaker 1: you get it pulled over for speeding and you give 863 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:15,360 Speaker 1: the guys some money. But what people have done for decades, 864 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:18,239 Speaker 1: probably even longer, is I'm going to keep a little 865 00:47:18,239 --> 00:47:19,880 Speaker 1: bit of money here and then the rest of my 866 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 1: money stays hidden over here. So then when you get stopped, 867 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:23,840 Speaker 1: it's like you pull it out, like this is all 868 00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 1: the money I have. If they search you, it's like 869 00:47:25,200 --> 00:47:26,680 Speaker 1: it's all the money I have, but they get something 870 00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:28,399 Speaker 1: and they feel it's all the money, but they don't 871 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 1: find the rest of the money. And so that's sort 872 00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:32,799 Speaker 1: of the same concept. And so you know, if you 873 00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:36,600 Speaker 1: were being held captive by some you know, attackers or 874 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:38,560 Speaker 1: something like that, you can give up a little bit. 875 00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 1: They don't know how much you have. Hopefully they don't 876 00:47:40,640 --> 00:47:42,880 Speaker 1: know how much you have, and so you're like, okay, 877 00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:44,839 Speaker 1: well let me open the safe. Okay, like here's my thing, 878 00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:47,319 Speaker 1: and here let's open it up, and okay, it's got 879 00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 1: whatever it's got in there, and you know, and at 880 00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:52,520 Speaker 1: least they get something, they'll probably leave you alone more 881 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:54,200 Speaker 1: than if you bricked it, and then they're probably really 882 00:47:54,200 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 1: mad or whatever. They know you got to backup, you know. 883 00:47:56,960 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 2: Now, Now there's an interesting thing here that you mentioned. 884 00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:04,759 Speaker 2: You said, hopefully they don't know how much you have, 885 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:09,960 Speaker 2: and it does point to you know, another important piece 886 00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:13,520 Speaker 2: of the puzzle is is privacy. And so a lot 887 00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:18,960 Speaker 2: of people don't realize functionally how bitcoin works in the 888 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:23,520 Speaker 2: back end, and and just by using regular bitcoin transactions, 889 00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:28,680 Speaker 2: you can begin to paint a picture for others of 890 00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:31,839 Speaker 2: what you own if you're not careful on how you 891 00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 2: how you do that. So you know, there are tools 892 00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 2: that can help you be more private, things like coin join. 893 00:48:39,719 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 2: You you know, I was just talking to the samurai 894 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:48,759 Speaker 2: guys that unfortunately are going away here, but but the 895 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:49,600 Speaker 2: tools live on. 896 00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:54,640 Speaker 1: And so besides the mixing services like you're talking about 897 00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:56,520 Speaker 1: coin join, which you know they're getting in trouble for 898 00:48:56,840 --> 00:49:00,680 Speaker 1: what are some basic best practices that somebody could do 899 00:49:01,200 --> 00:49:04,360 Speaker 1: to maintain that privacy. Governments will never stop printing money, 900 00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:07,680 Speaker 1: so inflation, it's not going away now. If your money's 901 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 1: not earning at least ten percent a year. You're losing 902 00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,120 Speaker 1: purchasing power. Now, that's why I talk about bitcoin. It's 903 00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:16,040 Speaker 1: the number one way to beat inflation and secure your future. 904 00:49:16,400 --> 00:49:19,239 Speaker 1: And the question I get asked almost every day is 905 00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 1: where do you buy your bitcoin? Now? For years, I've 906 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 1: personally used River dot Com and I only take on 907 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:27,800 Speaker 1: sponsors that I use and I trust, and I trust 908 00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 1: them because River's bitcoin only. They have one hundred percent reserve, 909 00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 1: and they keep your bitcoin safe in cold storage with 910 00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:38,000 Speaker 1: no middlemen, and you can actually talk to a real person, 911 00:49:38,080 --> 00:49:42,239 Speaker 1: a US based support, dedicated manager. Now, try getting that 912 00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:45,640 Speaker 1: peace of mind from coinbase. Of course you can't. Now 913 00:49:45,920 --> 00:49:48,719 Speaker 1: the perks. If you set up auto buys, you can 914 00:49:48,719 --> 00:49:51,720 Speaker 1: pay zero fees plus instead of you're bank paying you, 915 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,520 Speaker 1: you know, zero point four percent on cash. River pays 916 00:49:54,560 --> 00:49:58,920 Speaker 1: you three point seventy five percent on cash paid in bitcoin. So, 917 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:01,759 Speaker 1: if you're ready to build your bitcoin position with confidence, 918 00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,160 Speaker 1: go to River dot com, slash Mark Moss and get 919 00:50:05,239 --> 00:50:07,799 Speaker 1: up to one hundred dollars in bitcoin when you sign up. 920 00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:11,040 Speaker 1: Because freedom starts when you own your money, and your 921 00:50:11,080 --> 00:50:12,320 Speaker 1: money starts with bitcoin. 922 00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:17,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, so if you're using regular bitcoin transaction. So 923 00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:20,680 Speaker 2: there's on chain bitcoin, and then there's like layer two, 924 00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:23,680 Speaker 2: like lightning trends actually things like that, So regular on 925 00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:30,160 Speaker 2: chain bitcoin transactions there is. There's a concept known as 926 00:50:31,200 --> 00:50:36,560 Speaker 2: coin control or UTXO management, but the general concept is 927 00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:39,480 Speaker 2: whenever you receive bitcoin, it's kind of like you're receiving 928 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:43,480 Speaker 2: a physical bill. And when you look into your bitcoin wallet, 929 00:50:43,640 --> 00:50:47,200 Speaker 2: it's not just a singular balance like a bank account. 930 00:50:47,280 --> 00:50:49,400 Speaker 2: It's more like cash, and you can look in you 931 00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:51,920 Speaker 2: can see all of the different bills there, and so 932 00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:54,440 Speaker 2: when you go to pay somebody, you can think of 933 00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:55,799 Speaker 2: it like pulling out a bill. So if you're at 934 00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:58,719 Speaker 2: a corner store and you're buying a candy bar, pulling 935 00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:01,839 Speaker 2: out of five dollar bills a big deal. But if 936 00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:03,840 Speaker 2: you were to pull out and I know it doesn't exist, 937 00:51:03,840 --> 00:51:07,400 Speaker 2: but you pull out a million dollar bill, the clerk 938 00:51:07,480 --> 00:51:10,520 Speaker 2: working at the store sees not only what you're paying 939 00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:12,880 Speaker 2: for the candy, but but they see the change, and 940 00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:16,799 Speaker 2: there's a real problem there because that person knows that 941 00:51:16,840 --> 00:51:18,719 Speaker 2: you have a million dollars and. 942 00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:21,719 Speaker 1: If if I send bitcoin five dollars a bitcoin out 943 00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:23,239 Speaker 1: of my account, they're going to see that there's a 944 00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:24,960 Speaker 1: million dollars in that account. 945 00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:28,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's not always like that, like it's it's 946 00:51:28,960 --> 00:51:34,040 Speaker 2: kind of again your digital wallet. There's individual pieces of 947 00:51:34,040 --> 00:51:37,120 Speaker 2: bitcoin in there, and so if you have a wallet 948 00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:39,319 Speaker 2: where you can actually see those pieces, you can be 949 00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:42,799 Speaker 2: more conscientious in how you're spending your bitcoin. But you know, 950 00:51:42,880 --> 00:51:45,680 Speaker 2: if you think, like you go buy a T shirt 951 00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:50,000 Speaker 2: online and you're using a chunk of bitcoin that's sizeable 952 00:51:50,360 --> 00:51:53,319 Speaker 2: to buy a twenty or thirty dollars T shirt, and 953 00:51:53,920 --> 00:51:58,080 Speaker 2: this person now knows you have a million dollars and 954 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:01,320 Speaker 2: they have your address which they are shipping the T shirts, 955 00:52:02,040 --> 00:52:04,320 Speaker 2: and that may be a compelling reason for them to 956 00:52:04,360 --> 00:52:06,600 Speaker 2: buy a plane ticket and pay you a visit. So 957 00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:11,359 Speaker 2: UTXO control or coin control is something that you can 958 00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:14,279 Speaker 2: do very easily just by looking into any wallet that 959 00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:16,680 Speaker 2: shows you that stuff, because it's all there. 960 00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:19,120 Speaker 1: It's just the ones you mentioned before, the cold car, 961 00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:20,719 Speaker 1: the treasure they have those. 962 00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:23,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so you can see that in those you 963 00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:26,600 Speaker 2: can see it. So when I use a hardware device 964 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:30,520 Speaker 2: like a cold card or a treasure, I actually don't 965 00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:31,680 Speaker 2: use the treasure app. 966 00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:32,160 Speaker 3: I use. 967 00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:36,000 Speaker 2: I use something called Sparrow wallet on my computer and 968 00:52:36,040 --> 00:52:39,560 Speaker 2: it gives me more insight into that the nun Chuck 969 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:42,960 Speaker 2: wallet on mobile will show you that stuff in the background, 970 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:46,240 Speaker 2: along with a bunch of other ones. So yeah, having 971 00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:49,120 Speaker 2: that is helpful, but i'd see more than that. If 972 00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:53,520 Speaker 2: you're spending, jump over to a wallet that gives you 973 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:56,680 Speaker 2: additional privacy just day to day, and these would be 974 00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:59,200 Speaker 2: the Layer two kind of Lightning wallets. 975 00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:00,480 Speaker 3: So something like. 976 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:05,040 Speaker 2: Aqua wallet or the bull Bitcoin wallet, or really like 977 00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:09,719 Speaker 2: any any lightning wallet as a sender is going to 978 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:13,960 Speaker 2: give you additional privacy benefits because people can't really trace 979 00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:16,640 Speaker 2: back and see where it came from and what the 980 00:53:16,640 --> 00:53:17,319 Speaker 2: balance was. 981 00:53:17,400 --> 00:53:19,960 Speaker 1: So if you can spend on bit on Lightning on 982 00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:22,600 Speaker 1: layer two, then that solves pretty much all of those issues. 983 00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:25,960 Speaker 1: If you're spending off of your primary, you know, layer 984 00:53:26,040 --> 00:53:29,319 Speaker 1: one address, then you want to make sure you're not 985 00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:32,280 Speaker 1: sending from the wrong address. What about receiving and always 986 00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:34,240 Speaker 1: receiving to a new address. 987 00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:38,640 Speaker 2: Right, Yes, so this is luckily most bitcoin wallets now 988 00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:41,719 Speaker 2: do this by default. But you don't want to just 989 00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:44,960 Speaker 2: have a single bitcoin address that you're always sending. 990 00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:47,400 Speaker 1: What about your business though, I mean, you can't change 991 00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:50,359 Speaker 1: your bitcoin wallet for your business every day, every every 992 00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:52,839 Speaker 1: single payment you receive you can. 993 00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:53,480 Speaker 3: You can. 994 00:53:53,560 --> 00:53:55,000 Speaker 1: Indeed, that's not very practical. 995 00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:58,520 Speaker 2: No, it's it's automated. You don't you don't need to 996 00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:02,839 Speaker 2: deal with it. So there's a few different tools out there. 997 00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:06,480 Speaker 2: But let's say you're a company and you accept bitcoin, 998 00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:09,440 Speaker 2: and you do invoices or you have payment pages or whatever. 999 00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:14,000 Speaker 2: One of the best kind of OG solutions in the 1000 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:17,200 Speaker 2: space that's fully open sources called BTC pay Server, So 1001 00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:19,640 Speaker 2: you can set up something like that, and what it 1002 00:54:19,680 --> 00:54:22,200 Speaker 2: does is anytime a client goes to pay, it's just 1003 00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:24,480 Speaker 2: like a plug in on your website and it will 1004 00:54:24,480 --> 00:54:27,920 Speaker 2: generate a brand new Bitcoin address for every single transaction 1005 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:30,880 Speaker 2: and every single client that you have, whether it's an 1006 00:54:30,920 --> 00:54:33,719 Speaker 2: invoice or it's like a shop that you have, it 1007 00:54:33,760 --> 00:54:37,759 Speaker 2: will do that for you. I myself a way that 1008 00:54:37,840 --> 00:54:41,200 Speaker 2: I operate I really enjoy. There's a service called zapp right, 1009 00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:45,279 Speaker 2: and zapp right Parker Lewis is behind it and a 1010 00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:49,440 Speaker 2: few other guys, and you can basically they've got this 1011 00:54:49,560 --> 00:54:53,760 Speaker 2: nice setup where you can create invoices or payment pages 1012 00:54:53,920 --> 00:54:57,879 Speaker 2: or whatever it may be, and they say, okay, well, 1013 00:54:58,120 --> 00:55:01,160 Speaker 2: when you receive a payment that's on, where's it going 1014 00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:04,000 Speaker 2: to go? And you just copy and paste some information 1015 00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:06,360 Speaker 2: and it's your own bitcoin wallet, so they don't. It 1016 00:55:06,400 --> 00:55:09,040 Speaker 2: doesn't zap aright doesn't hold it. It just goes directly 1017 00:55:09,080 --> 00:55:11,279 Speaker 2: into your own bitcoin wallet, and it automates a new 1018 00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:12,799 Speaker 2: address every single. 1019 00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:14,680 Speaker 1: For the end user to see a new address every 1020 00:55:14,719 --> 00:55:18,480 Speaker 1: time exactly. But then zapright sends it to your same address. 1021 00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:20,520 Speaker 1: So let's just say hypothetically, so you have your. 1022 00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:22,600 Speaker 2: No, they don't, they don't send it to your same address. 1023 00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:27,600 Speaker 2: You've provided something called an x pub that that basically 1024 00:55:27,640 --> 00:55:30,799 Speaker 2: sits there, and an x pub is the ability to 1025 00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:34,520 Speaker 2: generate a new address at will without giving up the 1026 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:35,640 Speaker 2: credentials to spend. 1027 00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:39,000 Speaker 1: Okay, so then you have your main account that you're 1028 00:55:39,000 --> 00:55:40,600 Speaker 1: going to receive into because you said you have to 1029 00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:42,680 Speaker 1: pay your bills and then you keep whatever's left. So 1030 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:44,720 Speaker 1: you're going to have your main account that it's received into, 1031 00:55:45,040 --> 00:55:47,160 Speaker 1: but the customer sees a fresh address, and then when 1032 00:55:47,160 --> 00:55:49,640 Speaker 1: it goes through zapp right, that's going to generate it 1033 00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:52,839 Speaker 1: a fresh address, and then nobody will ever see your 1034 00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:54,000 Speaker 1: main address that goes into. 1035 00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:58,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, and while my main address and the zapp right, 1036 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:01,799 Speaker 2: there's no like sing main address. There's a you can 1037 00:56:01,840 --> 00:56:05,840 Speaker 2: think of it like it's almost like the in the 1038 00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:09,560 Speaker 2: in the analogy or the metaphor of like the digital vault. 1039 00:56:10,000 --> 00:56:13,239 Speaker 2: It's like there's infinite number of slots that people can 1040 00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:15,640 Speaker 2: slide cash into and they don't realize it's all for 1041 00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:18,839 Speaker 2: the same vault. And so that's what I'm giving zap 1042 00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:22,040 Speaker 2: right on the website there where I send out my invoices, 1043 00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:26,360 Speaker 2: Zapright basically just has the ability to say, hey, this 1044 00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:30,360 Speaker 2: is use this slot to slide in some cash into 1045 00:56:30,400 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 2: this person's digital vault, and the person doesn't see that 1046 00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:37,200 Speaker 2: it's it's all just mine. They know what they're paying me, 1047 00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:41,120 Speaker 2: but they don't know the other addresses that I've used. 1048 00:56:41,560 --> 00:56:44,560 Speaker 2: I've actually automated mind so that the second I receive 1049 00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:49,239 Speaker 2: a payment through zap right, uh, it's automated. So as 1050 00:56:49,280 --> 00:56:53,200 Speaker 2: soon as it lands, it gets coin joined and automatically flows. 1051 00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:53,800 Speaker 3: Into my cold card. 1052 00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:55,319 Speaker 1: Wow yees. 1053 00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:58,680 Speaker 2: So it's like I get paid, it's already pretty good 1054 00:56:58,719 --> 00:57:01,120 Speaker 2: because it's a new address for a person, but then 1055 00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:04,200 Speaker 2: it gets coin joined and then it goes into cold storage, 1056 00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:05,480 Speaker 2: so I don't even have to touch it. 1057 00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:07,800 Speaker 3: I send an invoice and all of that just happens. 1058 00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:11,680 Speaker 1: Got it. Well, that's a wealth of knowledge, and I 1059 00:57:11,680 --> 00:57:15,360 Speaker 1: think that's something for everybody. Number One, you have the 1060 00:57:15,360 --> 00:57:17,960 Speaker 1: ability to take custody, you should. Number two you can 1061 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:22,640 Speaker 1: ease into it. Number three so much more advanced tools. 1062 00:57:23,600 --> 00:57:25,080 Speaker 1: Let me ask you one more question. You got time? 1063 00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:27,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, of course. Yeah. 1064 00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:32,240 Speaker 1: So you know, there's another thesis that I'm sure you're 1065 00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:34,040 Speaker 1: well down the rabbit hole in, and that is that 1066 00:57:34,080 --> 00:57:38,360 Speaker 1: Sotoshi actually created two digital scarcities at once. Number one 1067 00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:40,360 Speaker 1: which is the twenty one million coins, but number two 1068 00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:44,280 Speaker 1: is the block space, and that means that there's only 1069 00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:47,760 Speaker 1: about as of today, and I'm sure technology changes, but 1070 00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:50,600 Speaker 1: I think there's about four hundred thousand transactions per day 1071 00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:55,600 Speaker 1: that can fit into the ten minute block. Now probably 1072 00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:58,680 Speaker 1: with some UTXO management and some AI software, maybe we 1073 00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:01,320 Speaker 1: double triple quadruple that, but we're still limited, and so 1074 00:58:01,560 --> 00:58:04,000 Speaker 1: eight billion people aren't going to be able to use that. 1075 00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:08,120 Speaker 1: And so it seems like most people, as we get 1076 00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:11,480 Speaker 1: further along, actually will probably never be on the main 1077 00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:14,520 Speaker 1: layer one and will never actually self custody and will 1078 00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:17,160 Speaker 1: never do this, And so I'm just curious, Number one, 1079 00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:18,920 Speaker 1: do you believe that to be true? And then if so, 1080 00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:23,840 Speaker 1: then number two, why push everybody into self custody, knowing 1081 00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:27,560 Speaker 1: that in the hopefully not too far off future, that 1082 00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:28,760 Speaker 1: might all just go away. 1083 00:58:29,080 --> 00:58:29,400 Speaker 3: Yeah. 1084 00:58:29,440 --> 00:58:33,040 Speaker 2: No, this is a good question. And what I believe 1085 00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:37,880 Speaker 2: is one, I think you're right. Obviously not every single 1086 00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:41,880 Speaker 2: person is going to be accessing on chain bitcoin and 1087 00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:48,360 Speaker 2: holding utxo's themselves. And two also true, most people their 1088 00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:53,400 Speaker 2: interactions with bitcoin are going to be in terms of 1089 00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:58,680 Speaker 2: being self sovereign, will be layer two solutions. 1090 00:58:59,080 --> 00:59:01,720 Speaker 3: So two implications there. 1091 00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:07,320 Speaker 2: One is these on chain kind of privacy metrics we're 1092 00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:10,920 Speaker 2: talking about, that goes away because the layer two stuff 1093 00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:15,240 Speaker 2: already gives the end user much better privacy, So that's 1094 00:59:15,280 --> 00:59:17,280 Speaker 2: a win. But then how do we deal with the 1095 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:21,320 Speaker 2: idea of self custody? And so I think a couple 1096 00:59:21,440 --> 00:59:23,919 Speaker 2: things are going to come to fruition. One is going 1097 00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:32,120 Speaker 2: to be the idea of non ruggable small community solutions, 1098 00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:35,720 Speaker 2: kind of like federations. We see a good example of 1099 00:59:35,760 --> 00:59:38,800 Speaker 2: something like this right now would be the Liquid network, 1100 00:59:39,000 --> 00:59:42,840 Speaker 2: and it's quite large obviously comparatively in terms of amount 1101 00:59:42,880 --> 00:59:47,000 Speaker 2: of funds, but the idea being that you have very 1102 00:59:47,200 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 2: identifiable keyholders that are you know, throughout the community or 1103 00:59:54,440 --> 00:59:59,120 Speaker 2: geographically dispersed or whatever, but you need a large threshold 1104 00:59:59,160 --> 01:00:03,520 Speaker 2: of those people to collude and work together to rug 1105 01:00:03,600 --> 01:00:11,720 Speaker 2: pull the community, which vastly reduces Like would I would 1106 01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:15,120 Speaker 2: I trust an individual or a single company with my bitcoin? 1107 01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:15,400 Speaker 1: No? 1108 01:00:16,160 --> 01:00:24,320 Speaker 2: Would I trust a combination of twenty different entities that 1109 01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:27,959 Speaker 2: seventeen of them won't collude together in order to rug 1110 01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:28,280 Speaker 2: pull me? 1111 01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:29,280 Speaker 3: Maybe? 1112 01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:32,760 Speaker 2: And so I think things like that are going to 1113 01:00:32,800 --> 01:00:37,760 Speaker 2: come up, whether it be you know, feediment is an 1114 01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:40,400 Speaker 2: example of that. But there is also going to be 1115 01:00:41,160 --> 01:00:45,880 Speaker 2: the ability, and there currently is with some layer two solutions, 1116 01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:50,920 Speaker 2: the ability of having part ownership of a single UTX 1117 01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:53,360 Speaker 2: or a single piece of bitcoin like the bills I 1118 01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:58,480 Speaker 2: was talking about in your wallet, where you aren't incurring 1119 01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:05,040 Speaker 2: on chain transactions and fees by transacting, but if you 1120 01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 2: ever wanted to, you could unilaterally exit and take your 1121 01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:14,600 Speaker 2: bitcoin with you on chain. It may be an expensive 1122 01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:18,480 Speaker 2: endeavor to do so, and you probably avoid that typically, 1123 01:01:18,760 --> 01:01:21,920 Speaker 2: but it cuts down on the amount of transactions day 1124 01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:24,160 Speaker 2: to day that are happening, and those are mainly reserved 1125 01:01:24,160 --> 01:01:28,400 Speaker 2: for large movements of capital, and you can transact in 1126 01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:32,080 Speaker 2: a layer two way that's more private, doesn't incur fees 1127 01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:35,200 Speaker 2: or incurs very very low fees, but it still gives 1128 01:01:35,280 --> 01:01:38,880 Speaker 2: you the ability at any point to unilaterally exit to 1129 01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:39,560 Speaker 2: on chain. 1130 01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:41,400 Speaker 3: So these are the kinds of things that we're looking 1131 01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:41,960 Speaker 3: at dem On Loot. 1132 01:01:42,000 --> 01:01:44,440 Speaker 1: So then the answer is that there will be solutions 1133 01:01:44,760 --> 01:01:47,360 Speaker 1: at some point when there needs to be solutions for that. 1134 01:01:47,600 --> 01:01:51,200 Speaker 1: Until then, custody your own bitcoin, manage it, and then 1135 01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:54,520 Speaker 1: when the problem arises where the block space is too valuable, 1136 01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:56,880 Speaker 1: too expensive, then you can move into a different solution. 1137 01:01:57,960 --> 01:02:03,720 Speaker 2: We are witnessing creation of an entirely new monetary system, 1138 01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:09,800 Speaker 2: and we have the growing pains of seeing the ground level, 1139 01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:14,080 Speaker 2: the foundation of that being built using the equivalent of 1140 01:02:14,200 --> 01:02:18,880 Speaker 2: worldwide physical gold settlement for day to day transactions right now, 1141 01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:22,320 Speaker 2: and then seeing each layer being built and then having 1142 01:02:22,360 --> 01:02:24,439 Speaker 2: to hop to the next layer and learn the next 1143 01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:27,400 Speaker 2: new thing. Whereas in the future people will just come in. 1144 01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:31,240 Speaker 2: It will be an easily fully established thing and they 1145 01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:34,280 Speaker 2: won't have to learn, oh, this is how the base layer, 1146 01:02:34,360 --> 01:02:36,800 Speaker 2: and then the second layer and the third layer, they'll 1147 01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:37,560 Speaker 2: just use it. 1148 01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:40,240 Speaker 1: Well, that's a good spot to end.
