It's like banking with P and C Bank. 6 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,360 Speaker 1: It might seem boring to save, plan and make calculated 7 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,479 Speaker 1: decisions with your bank, but keeping your money boring is 8 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 1: what helps you live a more happily fulfilled life. P 9 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 1: and C Bank Brilliantly Boring since eighteen sixty five. Brilliantly 10 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:35,479 Speaker 1: Boring since eighteen sixty five is a service mark of 11 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,760 Speaker 1: the PNC Financial Service Group, Inc.

Let's show this clip. 14 00:00:46,760 --> 00:00:54,800 Speaker 3: Actually, you know, I'm still bullish on bitcoin. In the 15 00:00:54,840 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 3: fourth quarter seasonally bitcoin strong, but now we have the 16 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 3: Fed flipping dubvish after being essentially hawkish all year. That's 17 00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 3: a tailwind for bitcoin. So I think bitcoin gets to 18 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:08,800 Speaker 3: two hundred to two hundred fifty thousand by the end 19 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 3: of the year, and that aligns with Mark Newton's technical targets. 20 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,959 Speaker 2: Okay, Tom Lee's out to tumbley if you're not familiar 21 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 2: who Tom Lee is bitcoin bull somebody that's been He's 22 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,600 Speaker 2: always bullish on bitcoin, but a very intelligent person. He 23 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,040 Speaker 2: says that he sees Bigcoin getting to two hundred and 24 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:35,360 Speaker 2: fifty thousand dollars by year in so there's only two 25 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:39,160 Speaker 2: months in the year. Bitcoin is currently at one hundred 26 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:40,880 Speaker 2: and ten thousand dollars, so that would be over one 27 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 2: hundred percent increase in seventy five days. He also said 28 00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 2: in an unrelated well and later on in that conversation 29 00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:58,920 Speaker 2: that he sees ethereum not now now getting to sixty 30 00:01:58,960 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 2: thousand dollars. 31 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 4: Wow. 32 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:02,960 Speaker 2: But he's always been a bull, Like I said, Tom 33 00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 2: Lee's always been. He's been a big Coin ball for years. 34 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,679 Speaker 2: So two hundred and fifty thousand dollars in the next 35 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 2: seventy five days is that something that. 36 00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:20,040 Speaker 4: Troy Troy, you know what? Yeah say, I'll say this 37 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 4: that is very lofty. 38 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: So I'll use the historical data, right, based on bitcoins 39 00:02:27,200 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: having cycles, the first year after having cycle is usually 40 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 1: the best year. 41 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:33,239 Speaker 4: Right, So. 42 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 1: Twenty twelve first having cycle, twenty thirteen being the next 43 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 1: year Bitcoin was up seven thousand percent, right, seven thousand 44 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: percent twenty sixteen, So this is every four years, right, 45 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 1: So we're twenty twelve to twenty sixteen, and twenty seventeen. 46 00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:54,679 Speaker 1: Bitcoin was up two hundred and ninety one percent. Twenty twenty, right, 47 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,399 Speaker 1: that's the next cycle. Twenty twenty one, the year after 48 00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 1: bitcoin was up to five hundred and forty one percent, right, 49 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 1: So these are huge jumps. Twenty twenty four we had 50 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:08,799 Speaker 1: having last April. So this year we are now up 51 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: forty four percent this year. Now, if we paid the 52 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:17,800 Speaker 1: law of averages, if we get up to maybe ninety 53 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,519 Speaker 1: to one hundred percent, that would take us to about 54 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: one hundred and forty seven thousand, two hundred and fifty 55 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 1: thousand for biitcoin, if the law of averages play out 56 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: at about one hundred percent return. So when we looked 57 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,480 Speaker 1: at our price points and this we kind of been 58 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 1: given this predictive number of one hundred and forty. I 59 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:39,920 Speaker 1: know you had one hundred and fifty, were in the 60 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: same rangerede hundred and forty. I can see it there. 61 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,000 Speaker 1: I can see it there based on how it's performed historically. 62 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 1: After the year of having we've seen a great gain. 63 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: I see it in that landscape two hundred and fifty. 64 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: I'm just not sure how we calculate that now. I 65 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: know he said that the Fed was hawkish, right, there 66 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:03,760 Speaker 1: was supposed to be maybe no rate changes. We got 67 00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: one already, and now they're saying there's two more. I mean, 68 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: there's only three months left in the year, right, well, 69 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: two months left in the year. We got one in September. 70 00:04:11,960 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: We'll see what happens here in October. So now November 71 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: December only two months left. 72 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 4: I just I don't know how we get to that level. 73 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:21,839 Speaker 4: I just don't. I can't see it. 74 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: But Tom Tom leys Is he's been right, not just 75 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,719 Speaker 1: in Bitcoin. He's been right about the S and P, 76 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:28,640 Speaker 1: he's been right about the DOW, he's been right about 77 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 1: the NASTAG. 78 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:33,000 Speaker 4: He is super bullish in the market. I don't see it. Yeah, 79 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 4: I like Tim Lee a lot. 80 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 5: Great lesson is in assets that are determined to go 81 00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 5: up as better to be bullish anything bearish. 82 00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 4: With that being said, I don't see two fifty one 83 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:50,839 Speaker 4: four four ninety. 84 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 5: I can see, but you don't have to take my 85 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 5: word for I want you to go on to LLM 86 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 5: GPT or Claude or Perplexity act as the World CLI 87 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 5: Investor tell me the ten scenarios in which bitcoin will 88 00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 5: go from where it is now at one ten to 89 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 5: two point fifty, and what geopolitical events would have to 90 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 5: happen in order for the market to run that high. 91 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 5: That's the thought exercise I want you guys to do tonight. 92 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 4: Also too, it's November.
