1
00:00:00,150 --> 00:00:03,660
It's really a brilliant technology,
but for the common, simple
2
00:00:03,660 --> 00:00:07,320
person, the key thing there is
that you have a money system
3
00:00:07,620 --> 00:00:10,050
without a bank, without the banks.
4
00:00:10,050 --> 00:00:14,550
It's a money system running on computers
without human beings, which is a new
5
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,360
opportunity for a financial system.
6
00:00:18,470 --> 00:00:18,950
So what do
7
00:00:18,950 --> 00:00:19,610
we do, Steve?
8
00:00:19,640 --> 00:00:21,500
Do we need to buy crypto
9
00:00:22,580 --> 00:00:23,150
everybody?
10
00:00:23,150 --> 00:00:24,650
Who's young should be doing it.
11
00:00:24,740 --> 00:00:25,370
How much?
12
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,870
I think the technology, the digital
13
00:00:45,260 --> 00:00:46,190
Hello, sir.
14
00:00:47,480 --> 00:00:49,700
Steve, is it, where are you from Steve?
15
00:00:50,330 --> 00:00:50,720
I'm
16
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,840
a Canadian Canadian where we're from,
17
00:00:53,990 --> 00:00:55,730
uh, let me guess, Alberta.
18
00:00:56,310 --> 00:00:56,760
When trout.
19
00:00:56,790 --> 00:00:57,030
Yeah.
20
00:00:57,060 --> 00:00:57,600
Alberta.
21
00:00:57,810 --> 00:00:58,200
Yeah.
22
00:00:58,230 --> 00:00:58,980
Rocky mountains,
23
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,140
Rocky mountains, I think
24
00:01:01,140 --> 00:01:04,440
Calgary outside of Calgary
towards the mountains.
25
00:01:04,980 --> 00:01:05,100
And
26
00:01:05,100 --> 00:01:07,970
what brings you to Cyprus woman?
27
00:01:08,060 --> 00:01:08,540
A woman.
28
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:09,290
A woman.
29
00:01:09,320 --> 00:01:09,560
Yeah.
30
00:01:10,130 --> 00:01:11,060
A separate woman.
31
00:01:11,600 --> 00:01:14,180
Maria, 50,
32
00:01:14,180 --> 00:01:14,630
50.
33
00:01:15,350 --> 00:01:15,980
Well, what do you mean?
34
00:01:17,420 --> 00:01:17,780
Yeah.
35
00:01:18,530 --> 00:01:21,020
And you're permanently
living in separate now.
36
00:01:21,110 --> 00:01:23,420
Yeah, man.
37
00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:29,090
It was in a, I met her in Washington
DC cause um, I went to school in,
38
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:33,710
uh, in Maryland and Washington.
39
00:01:34,010 --> 00:01:37,010
It's right at the it's uh,
the Washington he sees in the
40
00:01:37,010 --> 00:01:38,480
center of, yeah, I know my
41
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:41,060
sister graduated from
the American university.
42
00:01:41,270 --> 00:01:41,570
Is it?
43
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:42,720
Yeah.
44
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:43,460
It's hard DC.
45
00:01:43,460 --> 00:01:47,960
So yeah, so I went to school
and law school in DC and then,
46
00:01:47,990 --> 00:01:51,890
um, I worked there for 10 years
and then I escaped to Cyprus.
47
00:01:53,145 --> 00:01:55,904
Escaped from the heart of
the beast, Washington, DC.
48
00:01:56,294 --> 00:01:57,554
How did you meet
49
00:01:57,554 --> 00:01:57,945
her?
50
00:01:58,815 --> 00:02:00,945
Um, she was working at
the Cypress samosas.
51
00:02:01,645 --> 00:02:02,945
Have you made concerning to you
52
00:02:03,725 --> 00:02:03,905
make
53
00:02:03,914 --> 00:02:04,414
in front of you?
54
00:02:05,095 --> 00:02:10,365
Yeah, she was, uh, she was working
at the Cypress embassy and I had a
55
00:02:10,384 --> 00:02:16,115
law firm downtown and, uh, I met her
at an event and she brought me on
56
00:02:16,115 --> 00:02:19,234
vacation to see Cyprus in, uh, 1999.
57
00:02:19,924 --> 00:02:22,234
And I, I pretty much
fell in love with Cyprus.
58
00:02:22,565 --> 00:02:23,075
Yeah.
59
00:02:23,165 --> 00:02:24,334
You know, it's so nice here.
60
00:02:24,515 --> 00:02:27,065
It's warm, peaceful, it's relaxed.
61
00:02:27,225 --> 00:02:28,355
It was more relaxed.
62
00:02:28,355 --> 00:02:30,575
Then you remember when
you were here back
63
00:02:30,575 --> 00:02:32,795
in 1980s, nineties.
64
00:02:33,450 --> 00:02:34,140
99.
65
00:02:34,710 --> 00:02:38,400
I was wandering to Russia
and I came in 1986.
66
00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:38,490
Yeah.
67
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:38,840
Okay.
68
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,600
So, you know, you know how it
is, but it was a, those were the
69
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,060
golden days around the year 2000.
70
00:02:44,060 --> 00:02:47,690
It was so nice and Cyprus, everything.
71
00:02:47,690 --> 00:02:48,380
It was middle.
72
00:02:48,380 --> 00:02:49,400
It wasn't so rich.
73
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:51,079
It was pretty well off.
74
00:02:51,590 --> 00:02:52,430
Total freedom.
75
00:02:52,430 --> 00:02:53,780
Everybody was outside.
76
00:02:53,780 --> 00:02:57,050
All the restaurants, it was
partying, positive energy.
77
00:02:58,100 --> 00:03:00,170
People would take, yeah, there was
a lot of money that people would
78
00:03:00,170 --> 00:03:01,519
take the whole of August off.
79
00:03:01,519 --> 00:03:05,029
You know, now we work like you're like
Americans all through the whole year,
80
00:03:05,570 --> 00:03:07,070
which is really terrible, you know?
81
00:03:07,790 --> 00:03:08,720
I mean, I love it.
82
00:03:08,809 --> 00:03:09,440
I loved that.
83
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:10,670
It shut down in August.
84
00:03:10,670 --> 00:03:11,420
Cause you couldn't work.
85
00:03:11,450 --> 00:03:14,299
Even if you tried, everybody was off.
86
00:03:14,799 --> 00:03:17,410
What if you are doing what you love to?
87
00:03:18,310 --> 00:03:20,019
I mean, it's not work
at the end of the day.
88
00:03:21,670 --> 00:03:22,029
Yeah.
89
00:03:22,029 --> 00:03:24,040
But that's, uh, that's
what, that's what I do.
90
00:03:24,519 --> 00:03:26,079
What do you do for a living play?
91
00:03:26,529 --> 00:03:26,980
Play what?
92
00:03:27,910 --> 00:03:30,100
Play with technology and projects.
93
00:03:30,549 --> 00:03:31,029
Hey, with
94
00:03:31,029 --> 00:03:33,369
technology, giving me some insights.
95
00:03:33,369 --> 00:03:35,500
I mean, Andrew has told me that
96
00:03:35,799 --> 00:03:39,279
you're into, it's a, you know,
creating just like, um, part of
97
00:03:39,279 --> 00:03:44,200
my background was as a musician
and uh, creating albums a guitar.
98
00:03:44,410 --> 00:03:44,739
Yeah.
99
00:03:45,495 --> 00:03:45,945
How about you
100
00:03:46,575 --> 00:03:46,995
piano.
101
00:03:47,205 --> 00:03:47,655
All right.
102
00:03:47,805 --> 00:03:49,095
And a little bit of Sachs.
103
00:03:49,185 --> 00:03:49,725
All right.
104
00:03:49,785 --> 00:03:49,965
And a
105
00:03:49,965 --> 00:03:50,955
little bit of guitar.
106
00:03:51,135 --> 00:03:51,735
That's cool.
107
00:03:51,825 --> 00:03:52,035
Yeah.
108
00:03:52,335 --> 00:03:52,665
Yeah.
109
00:03:52,665 --> 00:03:55,395
So, you know, just creating
music is good, but, uh, the
110
00:03:55,395 --> 00:03:59,955
closest I can get to that in
work is creating a software apps.
111
00:04:00,705 --> 00:04:02,685
Cause you know, you're,
you're creating, uh,
112
00:04:02,745 --> 00:04:03,795
from clients or
113
00:04:03,805 --> 00:04:04,755
for your own band.
114
00:04:04,795 --> 00:04:05,055
Yeah.
115
00:04:05,055 --> 00:04:06,345
No, just creating our own.
116
00:04:06,345 --> 00:04:11,595
So the, the latest one we did is,
um, the football app, social network,
117
00:04:11,595 --> 00:04:14,445
like, uh, it's like Twitter or better.
118
00:04:14,475 --> 00:04:17,625
It's better than Twitter, but
it's, uh, it's kind of themed
119
00:04:17,625 --> 00:04:20,225
around football, the ponder thing.
120
00:04:20,495 --> 00:04:20,795
Yeah.
121
00:04:21,065 --> 00:04:22,625
I've seen some boot boards.
122
00:04:22,895 --> 00:04:24,695
Was it two years ago?
123
00:04:24,725 --> 00:04:26,405
Four or five years ago on the highway?
124
00:04:26,615 --> 00:04:26,945
Yeah.
125
00:04:26,945 --> 00:04:27,605
There's still up.
126
00:04:27,605 --> 00:04:30,005
I think there's some billboards
still up on the soup.
127
00:04:31,265 --> 00:04:31,745
You got it.
128
00:04:31,775 --> 00:04:32,525
Good memory.
129
00:04:32,585 --> 00:04:32,855
Yeah.
130
00:04:32,855 --> 00:04:33,545
So, um,
131
00:04:33,995 --> 00:04:35,345
I was trying to reach you guys.
132
00:04:35,495 --> 00:04:40,745
I was working for the competition and
one day, while I was driving down the
133
00:04:40,745 --> 00:04:43,565
model way, I saw a Panda and a football.
134
00:04:44,415 --> 00:04:46,155
And I was like, what is that?
135
00:04:46,155 --> 00:04:51,465
And I was trying to find like, you know,
axis some contact details and kudos.
136
00:04:51,495 --> 00:04:52,785
And I said, nevermind.
137
00:04:53,135 --> 00:04:53,525
Yeah.
138
00:04:54,785 --> 00:04:55,115
Yeah.
139
00:04:55,115 --> 00:04:57,305
So, um, yeah, it started here.
140
00:04:57,365 --> 00:05:01,535
So this is shaping up to be a big
social network, you know, with, um,
141
00:05:02,435 --> 00:05:06,665
with any kind of electronic, uh, market
where the it's worldwide potential.
142
00:05:06,995 --> 00:05:08,735
You're looking only at a few indicators.
143
00:05:08,735 --> 00:05:10,445
It's like same in the music industry.
144
00:05:10,445 --> 00:05:14,105
Now, if you have a hit song in one
country, unless it's really niche,
145
00:05:14,165 --> 00:05:18,035
it's likely to go on all the radios
all around the world, you put up a
146
00:05:18,035 --> 00:05:19,835
YouTube video and you have 200 viral.
147
00:05:19,835 --> 00:05:20,525
It's the word
148
00:05:20,525 --> 00:05:21,215
you're looking for.
149
00:05:21,305 --> 00:05:21,755
Yeah.
150
00:05:22,085 --> 00:05:25,445
But ours is already viral
and growing around the world.
151
00:05:25,925 --> 00:05:29,765
And once you get those dynamics
and, um, something like a social
152
00:05:29,765 --> 00:05:31,655
network, it doesn't really stop.
153
00:05:32,075 --> 00:05:37,025
It just keeps going until it hits its,
um, momentum limit, whatever that is.
154
00:05:37,805 --> 00:05:41,015
It's like a closing, a circle of growth.
155
00:05:41,940 --> 00:05:42,390
Yeah, yeah.
156
00:05:42,510 --> 00:05:43,590
For a circle of growth.
157
00:05:44,070 --> 00:05:44,400
Yeah.
158
00:05:44,460 --> 00:05:49,380
And, um, as you can imagine, people
are kind of tired of Facebook.
159
00:05:49,620 --> 00:05:51,360
It's a 20 year old idea.
160
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:51,690
Right.
161
00:05:52,700 --> 00:05:54,140
I kind of disagree with you.
162
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,969
I mean, I get what you're
saying, but Facebook nowadays
163
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:00,409
it's like the mainstream thing.
164
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:03,150
It used to be something new.
165
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:05,280
Now it's something mainstream.
166
00:06:05,630 --> 00:06:06,200
That's right.
167
00:06:06,229 --> 00:06:10,039
It's 20, you know, it was a
college cool thing 20 years ago,
168
00:06:10,610 --> 00:06:15,289
and now it is mainstream, but
once something becomes mainstream,
169
00:06:15,289 --> 00:06:16,669
everybody looks for something else.
170
00:06:16,669 --> 00:06:19,880
So the young kids jumped off into
Reddit and now a lot of people
171
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,310
are playing around with tic talk
and different kind of things.
172
00:06:22,310 --> 00:06:26,150
But, um, they're a little
bit like toys, you know?
173
00:06:26,210 --> 00:06:30,349
Uh, I think people are also looking for
something more consolidated, you know?
174
00:06:30,349 --> 00:06:33,440
So it happened in electronics
industry and it will happen in
175
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,990
social, um, application industry.
176
00:06:36,469 --> 00:06:40,880
So, uh, you remember there was the iPod
and all these little gadgets, right?
177
00:06:40,940 --> 00:06:43,730
And now we have them all in
one, it eventually happens.
178
00:06:43,730 --> 00:06:46,789
If someone pulls them together,
it puts all the popular things
179
00:06:46,789 --> 00:06:48,409
in one framework, pseudo
180
00:06:48,409 --> 00:06:51,320
Facebook though, Instagram
as the establishment.
181
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,050
I don't know if they're going to be.
182
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,030
Evolving into something different.
183
00:06:57,810 --> 00:07:00,510
And at the same time, I don't
know if they're going to be
184
00:07:00,510 --> 00:07:04,290
like come to end of days.
185
00:07:05,130 --> 00:07:05,550
Yeah.
186
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,780
I, I doubt they'll come to the
end of the days because they
187
00:07:08,780 --> 00:07:12,740
have, um, momentum, momentum.
188
00:07:12,740 --> 00:07:17,450
They have 30,000 employees,
psychologists market strategists,
189
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:18,950
they had half billion, hundreds
190
00:07:18,950 --> 00:07:19,070
of
191
00:07:19,940 --> 00:07:22,040
hundreds of billions
of dollars promotions.
192
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,470
They can buy new companies
and integrate them in.
193
00:07:24,860 --> 00:07:27,710
So they'll, they'll probably live long.
194
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:33,530
Um, but there are no longer, um,
it's an old, it's an old idea.
195
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,210
It's a good, it's not
that it's bad idea.
196
00:07:35,210 --> 00:07:36,560
It's just an old idea.
197
00:07:37,130 --> 00:07:44,460
And, um, it's, it's well entrenched,
but, um, Even they're talking about
198
00:07:44,700 --> 00:07:46,350
wishing they were something different.
199
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,140
And what they're wishing is to be
something in the genre that we're
200
00:07:49,140 --> 00:07:53,460
doing, which, uh, there was a
leaked Mark Zuckerberg tape that,
201
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:57,780
uh, was put up on the internet,
uh, four or five months ago now.
202
00:07:58,215 --> 00:08:00,255
Uh, no, it's still there
that you can find it.
203
00:08:00,255 --> 00:08:04,485
It was, uh, say like leaked Mark
Zuckerberg, private employees meeting.
204
00:08:04,485 --> 00:08:04,655
Yeah.
205
00:08:04,655 --> 00:08:05,625
I'm sure you could find it.
206
00:08:06,105 --> 00:08:07,695
It wasn't anything really damaging.
207
00:08:07,695 --> 00:08:09,255
So I don't think he really cared.
208
00:08:09,795 --> 00:08:14,325
Um, but, um, they, they were
talking about, um, employees
209
00:08:14,325 --> 00:08:18,885
were saying, uh, our brand is
not good or they said it's toxic.
210
00:08:19,725 --> 00:08:20,475
And he disagreed.
211
00:08:20,475 --> 00:08:22,995
He said, no, in certain parts
of the world, we're still hot.
212
00:08:23,415 --> 00:08:24,855
And U S it's toxic.
213
00:08:24,975 --> 00:08:25,845
He's actually right.
214
00:08:26,145 --> 00:08:26,655
He is right.
215
00:08:26,655 --> 00:08:26,835
Yeah.
216
00:08:26,865 --> 00:08:27,345
It's big.
217
00:08:27,375 --> 00:08:29,295
It's becoming it's
big in certain places.
218
00:08:29,295 --> 00:08:31,545
Uh, um, it it's huge.
219
00:08:32,255 --> 00:08:32,675
They haven't,
220
00:08:32,945 --> 00:08:35,465
they haven't even reached out Africa.
221
00:08:35,859 --> 00:08:38,109
I mean, it's a thing from Mark.
222
00:08:38,260 --> 00:08:38,589
Yeah.
223
00:08:39,039 --> 00:08:41,890
China, you know, with
the political stuff.
224
00:08:41,969 --> 00:08:42,270
Yeah.
225
00:08:42,270 --> 00:08:42,419
They're
226
00:08:42,419 --> 00:08:44,609
not going to get anywhere
there, but you're right.
227
00:08:44,609 --> 00:08:48,239
It's a certainly Indonesia,
Instagram, the whole Instagram
228
00:08:48,239 --> 00:08:49,890
game is still not fully played out.
229
00:08:50,459 --> 00:08:55,589
Uh, so, but he was talking that they
wish they could become, uh, community
230
00:08:55,589 --> 00:09:02,130
based, uh, interest groups, you know,
like pages, but bigger centered.
231
00:09:02,189 --> 00:09:05,369
The whole ecosystem is right now
centered around friends and family.
232
00:09:05,369 --> 00:09:07,500
And, uh, that's your feed, right?
233
00:09:07,589 --> 00:09:07,800
Yeah.
234
00:09:08,339 --> 00:09:14,819
Uh, he wants to be centered around
topics and, um, uh, we are a topic
235
00:09:14,819 --> 00:09:19,199
centered social network around
football and that's the biggest.
236
00:09:19,515 --> 00:09:23,204
Community in the world, as
you know, so it's a 3 billion
237
00:09:23,204 --> 00:09:24,675
people watch the world cup.
238
00:09:25,185 --> 00:09:27,015
It's bigger than any religion.
239
00:09:27,074 --> 00:09:28,305
It's bigger than any country.
240
00:09:28,334 --> 00:09:30,185
The group of football
fans, she's a behavior
241
00:09:30,185 --> 00:09:30,785
like that.
242
00:09:30,965 --> 00:09:34,865
I mean, you, you create a username
password, you look in, you
243
00:09:34,865 --> 00:09:36,275
create a profile and then yeah.
244
00:09:36,334 --> 00:09:37,055
And then you do what,
245
00:09:37,715 --> 00:09:40,265
uh, everything that you do in
a social network, you know,
246
00:09:40,265 --> 00:09:42,395
um, share videos, poss yeah.
247
00:09:42,485 --> 00:09:42,905
Everything.
248
00:09:43,415 --> 00:09:43,625
Yeah.
249
00:09:43,805 --> 00:09:45,095
It's very, very powerful.
250
00:09:45,095 --> 00:09:50,074
It's like if you combine Twitter and
Instagram and Reddit and telegram
251
00:09:50,165 --> 00:09:57,964
and Apple pay and Uber eats and
cryptocurrency wallet, uh, and
252
00:09:57,964 --> 00:10:00,035
games and you mix them all together.
253
00:10:00,064 --> 00:10:01,444
That's the football app.
254
00:10:01,745 --> 00:10:06,620
How many users do you, uh, Well from
when we launched in a Cypress in
255
00:10:06,620 --> 00:10:14,360
2019, uh, we've got, uh, let's say,
I don't know, quarter million users.
256
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:19,880
Um, but the, the numbers isn't really,
when you're, when you're in a early
257
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:25,870
stage social network, you're actually
looking at, um, how much, um, um,
258
00:10:26,210 --> 00:10:27,980
how, how much retention do you have?
259
00:10:28,010 --> 00:10:30,320
Do they come and go or do they stay?
260
00:10:30,860 --> 00:10:34,460
And our users are staying and
they're staying for 24 minutes per
261
00:10:34,460 --> 00:10:36,290
day, which is a very, very high,
262
00:10:37,450 --> 00:10:40,180
I mean, 24 internet minutes.
263
00:10:40,210 --> 00:10:40,480
It's
264
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:44,800
a lot, it's like a hit show
of no Netflix per day of time.
265
00:10:44,830 --> 00:10:45,130
Yeah.
266
00:10:45,670 --> 00:10:48,580
And, um, also it grows at.
267
00:10:48,910 --> 00:10:49,660
By itself.
268
00:10:49,930 --> 00:10:53,680
So every month there's 8% more users
than there were the month before.
269
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:59,229
From where natural users inviting other
users, we don't with no marketing.
270
00:10:59,229 --> 00:11:00,010
It's just growing.
271
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:00,250
Yep.
272
00:11:00,689 --> 00:11:01,560
Where do you pitch the
273
00:11:01,560 --> 00:11:01,979
most?
274
00:11:02,459 --> 00:11:10,079
Um, well, you know, uh, uh, the it's
the way it's gone now is it's spread
275
00:11:10,079 --> 00:11:14,010
out a Cypress and it started spreading
in 30, 40 other countries by itself.
276
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,560
We don't know how we don't know
why it just started catching
277
00:11:16,560 --> 00:11:17,910
on just that organically.
278
00:11:17,939 --> 00:11:18,449
Yeah.
279
00:11:18,510 --> 00:11:22,230
And then where we see big units
coming up or whether, so we're going
280
00:11:22,230 --> 00:11:27,030
to actually do some real promotions
in UK because it's hard to football.
281
00:11:27,060 --> 00:11:31,680
And also it's an early adopting,
uh, social media network.
282
00:11:32,370 --> 00:11:37,380
Uh, also in Southern California, Los
Angeles and Las Vegas, uh, where we have
283
00:11:37,380 --> 00:11:40,980
strong connections and there's a lot
of college students and there's a lot
284
00:11:40,980 --> 00:11:43,200
of, uh, Latinos who are football mad.
285
00:11:43,560 --> 00:11:46,140
The Americans are also football
crazy, but they're not so up
286
00:11:46,140 --> 00:11:47,460
to speed on the premier league.
287
00:11:47,460 --> 00:11:52,260
Or they're more just see it as one of
20 sports, but the Latinos see it the
288
00:11:52,260 --> 00:11:54,170
way the Cypriots in the Europeans.
289
00:11:54,170 --> 00:11:55,620
See it it's like the sport.
290
00:11:55,650 --> 00:12:00,090
It's like, yeah, they're their,
they're their mental over football.
291
00:12:00,090 --> 00:12:01,680
And they're crazy over cryptocurrency.
292
00:12:01,690 --> 00:12:06,030
So there's 800,000 college
students in Southern California and
293
00:12:06,030 --> 00:12:07,380
they're all cryptocurrency savvy.
294
00:12:07,380 --> 00:12:10,440
So we're combining cryptocurrency
and social networking
295
00:12:10,980 --> 00:12:13,140
and, um, that's unique.
296
00:12:13,410 --> 00:12:17,520
And that means like, uh, right
now, when you stare at the screen
297
00:12:17,670 --> 00:12:21,930
for Facebook or Instagram, Mark
Zuckerberg just keeps getting richer
298
00:12:21,930 --> 00:12:23,790
and richer and richer, like a monster.
299
00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:25,800
You just get bigger
and bigger and crazier.
300
00:12:26,370 --> 00:12:30,810
Um, when you stare at the screen in
the football app and enjoy yourself,
301
00:12:31,740 --> 00:12:34,830
You're getting a share of the
revenue of the network through the
302
00:12:34,830 --> 00:12:38,180
token, through the cryptocurrency,
you earn the token, like a, what do
303
00:12:38,180 --> 00:12:38,630
you mean?
304
00:12:38,660 --> 00:12:44,090
You get like paid
whales theme on the app?
305
00:12:44,510 --> 00:12:44,810
Yeah.
306
00:12:44,840 --> 00:12:46,400
And your content and the app counts
307
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:46,940
minutes.
308
00:12:47,090 --> 00:12:51,050
No, but you earn points by
playing games, by inviting
309
00:12:51,050 --> 00:12:53,570
users, by winning contests.
310
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:58,130
If you're active in the app, you win
a lot of points and the points convert
311
00:12:58,130 --> 00:13:02,960
into a cryptocurrency, and then you
can send them no currency calls.
312
00:13:03,290 --> 00:13:05,420
It's TFC, TFC.
313
00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:10,370
the football, corn, the football con.
314
00:13:10,430 --> 00:13:10,760
Yeah.
315
00:13:11,180 --> 00:13:16,070
So that coin is, um, a real
cryptocurrency it's listed on
316
00:13:16,070 --> 00:13:17,660
one of the top tier exchanges.
317
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:23,150
And, um, it's, uh, it's
starting to get worldwide.
318
00:13:24,255 --> 00:13:29,805
Uh, notoriety now because not
many people it's very easy
319
00:13:29,805 --> 00:13:31,725
to create a cryptocurrency.
320
00:13:31,965 --> 00:13:33,935
You could do it computer.
321
00:13:34,395 --> 00:13:34,655
Yeah.
322
00:13:34,865 --> 00:13:35,165
Any
323
00:13:35,795 --> 00:13:38,405
mind for a month for
a coin, for example,
324
00:13:38,645 --> 00:13:42,545
but even create one, you could create
one, you know, make your own crypto.
325
00:13:42,905 --> 00:13:47,555
The hard part is to get other people to
use it because why would they use yours?
326
00:13:47,645 --> 00:13:49,745
Anybody can create
actually the creep too.
327
00:13:49,755 --> 00:13:54,575
It's like giving value to something that
you create and then create a community
328
00:13:54,575 --> 00:13:57,785
around it and then establish a.
329
00:13:58,455 --> 00:14:03,665
An ecosystem where you can change that
something to get something else from
330
00:14:03,935 --> 00:14:04,565
well said.
331
00:14:04,595 --> 00:14:06,605
Yeah, that's really the heart of it.
332
00:14:06,635 --> 00:14:07,445
You nailed it.
333
00:14:07,775 --> 00:14:09,155
That is what it's about.
334
00:14:09,185 --> 00:14:13,115
It's creating a community of people
who use it and they give it the
335
00:14:13,115 --> 00:14:17,825
value and there has to be mechanisms
and enabling technology so they can
336
00:14:17,855 --> 00:14:19,835
exchange it so they can spend with it.
337
00:14:20,525 --> 00:14:24,455
And there has to be some superpower why
this one is better than another one.
338
00:14:24,515 --> 00:14:24,695
Right.
339
00:14:25,205 --> 00:14:29,285
Steve, let me ask you something for
the non crypto currency savvy people.
340
00:14:30,195 --> 00:14:33,975
Fundamentally what a
cryptocurrency asides, the
341
00:14:33,975 --> 00:14:35,565
few that I just placed on the
342
00:14:35,565 --> 00:14:36,015
table.
343
00:14:36,875 --> 00:14:37,145
Yeah.
344
00:14:37,145 --> 00:14:44,765
So, uh, uh, cryptocurrency is
really a token or just a unit.
345
00:14:45,060 --> 00:14:51,060
That is created on the internet,
a virtual unit that exists on the
346
00:14:51,060 --> 00:14:55,140
internet, but that what's unique
about it is that a network of
347
00:14:55,140 --> 00:14:58,710
computers manages the supply of that.
348
00:14:59,340 --> 00:15:01,130
And then transfer of that.
349
00:15:01,130 --> 00:15:01,340
Who's
350
00:15:01,340 --> 00:15:03,950
behind the computers, people,
351
00:15:04,010 --> 00:15:06,770
algorithms about algorithms.
352
00:15:06,860 --> 00:15:12,050
And this is why people trust it
because it's, um, if you create,
353
00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,230
um, like Bitcoin, for example, yeah.
354
00:15:15,260 --> 00:15:18,440
Which everybody's heard of, and
a lot of people have participated
355
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,690
in this is a network of computers.
356
00:15:20,690 --> 00:15:24,590
You could think it's almost like a
AI supercomputer that does a very
357
00:15:24,590 --> 00:15:28,580
simple task, which is managed the
supply of how many of these tokens
358
00:15:28,580 --> 00:15:33,770
can exist because there's only 21
million tokens in the computer.
359
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:38,000
The computer code isn't built in
an instructed that there's only
360
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,630
this many tokens that can be
created in the, in the market.
361
00:15:41,630 --> 00:15:43,820
So it has a M a, a scarcity.
362
00:15:44,205 --> 00:15:46,665
Inside of it enforced by the computers.
363
00:15:46,665 --> 00:15:49,575
You don't have to trust a person
that there's some seedy guy
364
00:15:49,575 --> 00:15:52,995
behind the scenes that will screw
everybody over and create another
365
00:15:53,055 --> 00:15:54,555
hundred million tokens at the
366
00:15:54,555 --> 00:15:54,705
wrong.
367
00:15:55,775 --> 00:16:00,875
You do not trust the central bank for
issuing more paper and paper and paper.
368
00:16:00,875 --> 00:16:03,425
It's just an algorithm that produces.
369
00:16:03,635 --> 00:16:03,725
Yeah.
370
00:16:03,755 --> 00:16:03,965
Yeah.
371
00:16:03,995 --> 00:16:10,715
You trust a computer program, which is
enforced by computers who are agnostic.
372
00:16:10,745 --> 00:16:11,405
They don't care.
373
00:16:11,765 --> 00:16:12,965
They are non-emotional.
374
00:16:13,115 --> 00:16:16,925
So the computers enforced
the program and the program.
375
00:16:16,985 --> 00:16:19,145
Everybody can see what it says.
376
00:16:19,295 --> 00:16:23,015
You know, they can see what the,
what the rules of the game are and
377
00:16:23,015 --> 00:16:24,815
the game rules can't be changed.
378
00:16:25,415 --> 00:16:29,105
And this is why people trust
the cryptocurrency and why
379
00:16:29,105 --> 00:16:30,425
they don't trust the banks.
380
00:16:30,455 --> 00:16:32,645
The banks make money out of thin air.
381
00:16:32,675 --> 00:16:36,935
They abuse the privilege print,
they print money and as they print
382
00:16:36,935 --> 00:16:41,699
money, Whatever tokens that you
hold of the Euro or the us dollar.
383
00:16:41,939 --> 00:16:45,569
When they print more of them, the
ones you hold become worth less.
384
00:16:46,050 --> 00:16:47,550
They print too many of them.
385
00:16:47,609 --> 00:16:49,699
They become truly worthless.
386
00:16:50,030 --> 00:16:52,400
My question is, is China, Russia.
387
00:16:52,400 --> 00:16:57,589
And the States of let the cryptocurrency
ecosystem evolve to something new.
388
00:16:58,280 --> 00:16:59,420
They don't have a choice.
389
00:16:59,839 --> 00:17:03,319
Uh, they can't stop
the computer network.
390
00:17:03,530 --> 00:17:06,530
If it was a group of people,
they could just arrest them.
391
00:17:07,550 --> 00:17:10,970
But how do you stop a computer
program, which is running on the
392
00:17:10,970 --> 00:17:12,440
intranet all around the world?
393
00:17:13,159 --> 00:17:16,069
Uh, what if they pooed like
regulations on the internet?
394
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:19,940
Well, they stopped prostitution
and drugs that way, right?
395
00:17:21,329 --> 00:17:23,189
You can't stop certain behaviors.
396
00:17:23,429 --> 00:17:26,280
If people want things enough,
you'll never stop them.
397
00:17:26,310 --> 00:17:28,079
You can make it more
uncomfortable for them.
398
00:17:28,439 --> 00:17:33,990
You can slow it down a little bit,
but, um, certain fundamental human
399
00:17:33,990 --> 00:17:38,220
behaviors, people will pursue, uh,
health and happiness and pleasure,
400
00:17:38,220 --> 00:17:42,450
and you won't be able to stop all the
behaviors, laws don't stop behaviors.
401
00:17:42,929 --> 00:17:46,590
So the governments do not have the
power to actually stop this, uh,
402
00:17:46,620 --> 00:17:50,010
because they can't stop that computer
network, which is why this is.
403
00:17:50,330 --> 00:17:51,379
Really a revolution.
404
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:57,230
Uh, and, uh, it's started
at the, um, the 2008.
405
00:17:57,260 --> 00:18:00,830
You know, a lot of the, a lot of, uh,
kids are too young to remember it.
406
00:18:00,889 --> 00:18:04,850
What happened in 2008 when they
crashed the whole world economy.
407
00:18:04,940 --> 00:18:09,320
And a lot of people lost huge
amount of money and just, um, then
408
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,990
the banks, of course, they gave
money to the banks to help them.
409
00:18:11,990 --> 00:18:13,879
And they didn't give
money to the people.
410
00:18:13,909 --> 00:18:16,730
The people had to give
money to the, to the banks.
411
00:18:16,790 --> 00:18:20,929
And this is when Bitcoin was
born out of that kind of time.
412
00:18:21,110 --> 00:18:23,330
When everybody just
got tired of it, it, it
413
00:18:23,399 --> 00:18:24,770
started from Japan.
414
00:18:25,550 --> 00:18:26,720
Uh, nobody knows.
415
00:18:26,975 --> 00:18:27,485
Nobody knows.
416
00:18:27,665 --> 00:18:33,575
Maybe I know, but if I knew I wouldn't
be a lot numb, I wouldn't, nobody
417
00:18:33,585 --> 00:18:34,895
would know you have to kill it.
418
00:18:35,135 --> 00:18:36,245
Yeah, exactly.
419
00:18:36,245 --> 00:18:39,395
It's a James Bond, but now I do,
I do think I actually have some
420
00:18:39,395 --> 00:18:43,655
insights into it, but let's just
say that it's the Bitcoin was
421
00:18:43,655 --> 00:18:48,335
supposedly created by Satoshi
Nakamoto, which is a Japanese name,
422
00:18:48,335 --> 00:18:51,185
but it's not, there's no 0% chance.
423
00:18:51,185 --> 00:18:52,765
There was a yes.
424
00:18:52,915 --> 00:18:55,345
I saw a video on YouTube the other days.
425
00:18:56,035 --> 00:18:57,385
There's a guy, a new guy.
426
00:18:57,415 --> 00:18:58,855
I'll show him later to you.
427
00:18:58,855 --> 00:19:01,105
He said, I know who is behind Bitcoin.
428
00:19:01,255 --> 00:19:04,075
And one, that's always a name.
429
00:19:04,075 --> 00:19:05,185
You will be freaked out.
430
00:19:05,635 --> 00:19:08,455
And I was like, who the hell is banning
431
00:19:08,455 --> 00:19:08,965
beats Connie?
432
00:19:09,330 --> 00:19:11,040
There's no one person behind it.
433
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,950
And, uh, anybody who thinks
they can say who the one
434
00:19:13,950 --> 00:19:15,660
person behind it is, is wrong.
435
00:19:15,660 --> 00:19:21,020
It's um, it's, uh, large groups,
not large groups, but it's, it's
436
00:19:21,030 --> 00:19:23,580
groups of people, pioneer people.
437
00:19:23,580 --> 00:19:26,640
And, uh, there was a whole
community of people who are involved
438
00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:31,890
in this cryptography and this
whole idea of, um, these trusted
439
00:19:31,890 --> 00:19:37,980
networks for, uh, money and, uh,
even, uh, governments of course.
440
00:19:37,980 --> 00:19:44,370
I mean, uh, the, uh, I would think,
um, I would think that there certainly
441
00:19:44,370 --> 00:19:47,790
were, uh, governments involved
in creating of the blockchain.
442
00:19:48,015 --> 00:19:50,235
Because they have the
most money to do research.
443
00:19:50,265 --> 00:19:53,865
They hire all those
genius PhDs from Caltech.
444
00:19:54,375 --> 00:19:59,085
And so a lot of, um, research that
would have been funded by the government
445
00:19:59,085 --> 00:20:03,135
would have actually been used to
create things like Bitcoin, but it
446
00:20:03,135 --> 00:20:07,575
really doesn't matter actually, who
is behind it because it's transparent,
447
00:20:07,725 --> 00:20:09,585
you know, what is the computer code?
448
00:20:09,765 --> 00:20:10,905
It doesn't matter who made it.
449
00:20:10,905 --> 00:20:15,915
If it's, if we know what's in the
computer code and, um, we can see
450
00:20:15,915 --> 00:20:19,485
that we can trust it and it's running
on computers and the government
451
00:20:19,485 --> 00:20:20,985
can't stop it at that point.
452
00:20:21,555 --> 00:20:24,945
Uh, it's really irrelevant,
uh, who created it?
453
00:20:25,355 --> 00:20:25,865
Papers
454
00:20:25,865 --> 00:20:27,455
attach with gold.
455
00:20:27,785 --> 00:20:29,315
Bitcoin is a touch to what
456
00:20:30,305 --> 00:20:34,985
paper is not attached to
gold papers, attached to oil.
457
00:20:35,550 --> 00:20:40,110
Yeah, so, but it used to be attached
to gold, but your ideas, right.
458
00:20:40,110 --> 00:20:45,540
You know, um, the us dollar, they
call it the petrodollar and the
459
00:20:45,540 --> 00:20:49,590
reason they call it a petrodollar
is the U S forced everybody, all the
460
00:20:49,590 --> 00:20:54,629
countries, uh, uh, if they're going
to buy oil from the OPEC nations,
461
00:20:54,990 --> 00:20:57,000
they have to pay with us dollars.
462
00:20:57,450 --> 00:21:01,139
So imagine the U S dollar is
a token it's it is a token.
463
00:21:01,169 --> 00:21:04,860
Let's just say it's the same as
a coin, but it's a token that
464
00:21:04,860 --> 00:21:09,240
is exclusively used to purchase
oil and every country needs oil.
465
00:21:09,810 --> 00:21:18,690
So that made the dollar very, very
powerful, um, Bitcoin, um, He used
466
00:21:18,690 --> 00:21:22,470
to be backed with gold, the dollar,
the dollar, as you said, and gold was
467
00:21:22,500 --> 00:21:26,310
a desired, um, uh, Kings wanted it.
468
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,470
Uh, people wanted it for jewelry.
469
00:21:28,470 --> 00:21:29,940
It was very highly desired.
470
00:21:30,830 --> 00:21:31,250
Basically.
471
00:21:31,250 --> 00:21:35,420
It was attached to
Salton coffee and yeah.
472
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:40,080
How do you call the, uh, carnations?
473
00:21:40,649 --> 00:21:40,889
Yeah.
474
00:21:40,950 --> 00:21:44,780
So, so what happens is whatever, if,
if we were a tribal, let's say there
475
00:21:44,780 --> 00:21:48,770
was only 500 of us in the world and
we all lived in Cyprus, whatever we
476
00:21:48,770 --> 00:21:53,389
valued the most, we would tend to
trade that as the base economic unit.
477
00:21:53,389 --> 00:21:55,760
So it could have been salt,
whatever we desired the most.
478
00:21:56,784 --> 00:21:57,175
It did.
479
00:21:57,175 --> 00:22:01,074
It was, that's why in Australia,
you know, the town of Salzburg was
480
00:22:01,074 --> 00:22:05,304
a great salt, mine, a lot of wealth
because in the Roman empire salt,
481
00:22:05,365 --> 00:22:06,445
that's what they got the name.
482
00:22:06,594 --> 00:22:06,925
Yeah.
483
00:22:07,735 --> 00:22:11,754
But salt was limited in its supply
because they didn't have an easy
484
00:22:11,754 --> 00:22:13,254
technology to get out of the water.
485
00:22:13,254 --> 00:22:17,034
They had to get it out of the,
uh, the mountain, uh, reserves.
486
00:22:18,024 --> 00:22:20,905
So it was limited in supply
was needed for everything.
487
00:22:20,905 --> 00:22:22,824
They needed it for food, uh, storage.
488
00:22:22,824 --> 00:22:26,665
And, and that was a key, uh,
it's flavoring and food storage.
489
00:22:27,385 --> 00:22:30,084
And you could carry it
around in a divisible.
490
00:22:30,115 --> 00:22:31,735
You could carry it around with you.
491
00:22:32,274 --> 00:22:38,004
So once you start using salt to
measure the economic transactions,
492
00:22:38,250 --> 00:22:39,870
It gains the superpower, right?
493
00:22:39,870 --> 00:22:43,379
So salt might've been worth one
egg, but once we start using salt
494
00:22:43,379 --> 00:22:46,620
to measure all the things we trade,
maybe salt gains, a super power.
495
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:51,810
So later, uh, gold got that
power in, in ancient Greece.
496
00:22:51,810 --> 00:22:52,590
It was silver.
497
00:22:52,709 --> 00:22:54,990
Silver was mostly used for money.
498
00:22:55,530 --> 00:22:56,490
Cause again, it was.
499
00:22:56,895 --> 00:22:58,125
There was only so much of it.
500
00:22:58,245 --> 00:22:59,775
It had a limited supply.
501
00:23:00,255 --> 00:23:01,425
You couldn't make more of it.
502
00:23:02,115 --> 00:23:03,465
You could mine a little bit of it.
503
00:23:04,095 --> 00:23:06,735
Every single year, you
could melt it down.
504
00:23:06,855 --> 00:23:08,565
It was very useful and desired.
505
00:23:08,835 --> 00:23:11,025
So it was very good form of money.
506
00:23:11,235 --> 00:23:14,685
It was very good to be
used as money and Bitcoin.
507
00:23:15,375 --> 00:23:20,265
The reason people like Bitcoin is
because it has a truly limited supply.
508
00:23:20,565 --> 00:23:21,495
21 million.
509
00:23:21,495 --> 00:23:22,155
Exactly.
510
00:23:22,155 --> 00:23:25,215
In everybody can know, you can't know
how much gold or silver is in the world.
511
00:23:25,245 --> 00:23:28,995
No one knows, but you can know exactly
how much Bitcoin is in the world.
512
00:23:29,185 --> 00:23:31,735
21 million, you can read
it in the computer code.
513
00:23:31,885 --> 00:23:32,905
It can't be changed.
514
00:23:33,955 --> 00:23:39,385
So, because that has a limited supply,
because it's really easy to transfer in
515
00:23:39,385 --> 00:23:44,245
the old days, it was very hard to port
your gold around, um, the early Knights
516
00:23:44,245 --> 00:23:48,205
Templar who had their headquarters here
in lemme Saul, you know, uh, the reason
517
00:23:48,205 --> 00:23:49,825
they became the bankers of Europe.
518
00:23:50,125 --> 00:23:54,295
And there was this sacred trails
that you would go through of, uh,
519
00:23:54,325 --> 00:23:59,035
all Europe on this sort of Ascension
pilgrimage, all the Holy sites and
520
00:23:59,035 --> 00:24:03,175
France, all the way up to Scotland
and down here, and you would turn your
521
00:24:03,175 --> 00:24:08,365
golden to them and they would give
you an, uh, uh, uh, an encrypted code.
522
00:24:08,925 --> 00:24:13,605
Or written encrypted code and you would
then carry that down to Italy or Cyprus,
523
00:24:13,605 --> 00:24:17,054
and you would turn the encrypted code
in and they would give you gold here.
524
00:24:17,375 --> 00:24:17,735
Was it a
525
00:24:17,735 --> 00:24:18,335
plate?
526
00:24:18,995 --> 00:24:20,014
Something like a plate,
527
00:24:20,534 --> 00:24:21,725
a code.
528
00:24:22,395 --> 00:24:26,975
It was paper, but it, it, it evolved
in different forms, but you see,
529
00:24:26,975 --> 00:24:30,514
the early banking system was built
like the blockchain, you know, it
530
00:24:30,514 --> 00:24:35,375
was ciphers and it was based on,
uh, some, uh, transferability.
531
00:24:35,915 --> 00:24:38,405
Bitcoin is the ultimate transferability.
532
00:24:38,405 --> 00:24:40,774
Cause we all know how easy it
is to transfer on the internet.
533
00:24:40,774 --> 00:24:43,625
You click a button, you send a
picture, you send an email, wham.
534
00:24:43,774 --> 00:24:45,905
Nobody can, no border can stop it.
535
00:24:45,905 --> 00:24:46,895
No border control.
536
00:24:47,645 --> 00:24:52,294
So Bitcoin has a limited supply
and it can be transferred anywhere.
537
00:24:53,495 --> 00:24:53,794
There's
538
00:24:53,794 --> 00:24:54,455
not a middle
539
00:24:54,455 --> 00:24:54,875
man.
540
00:24:55,325 --> 00:24:58,415
That's the big point that you don't
have to trust the Knights Templar and
541
00:24:58,415 --> 00:25:00,965
they charge you commission Bitcoin.
542
00:25:01,300 --> 00:25:03,820
You, the computers handle everything.
543
00:25:03,820 --> 00:25:07,540
No human beings are involved in
the middle, which is incredible.
544
00:25:07,810 --> 00:25:11,889
So the power of the blockchain
Bitcoin is a blockchain and
545
00:25:11,889 --> 00:25:13,030
there's other blockchains.
546
00:25:13,540 --> 00:25:17,950
The power is that you don't
have to trust that someone will
547
00:25:17,950 --> 00:25:21,399
change the rules of the game
and that create more Bitcoins.
548
00:25:21,740 --> 00:25:25,450
You don't have to trust that someone
will stop or block your transfer.
549
00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,360
You don't have to trust the
computers will get messed up.
550
00:25:28,450 --> 00:25:32,649
And one computer will have a different,
uh, ledger of how many things were
551
00:25:32,649 --> 00:25:36,940
transferred in a different, it's really
a brilliant technology, but for the
552
00:25:36,940 --> 00:25:41,440
common, simple person, the key thing
there is that you have a money system
553
00:25:41,710 --> 00:25:44,110
without a bank, without the banks.
554
00:25:44,110 --> 00:25:48,670
It's a money system running on computers
without human beings, which is a new
555
00:25:49,570 --> 00:25:52,389
opportunity for a financial system.
556
00:25:52,530 --> 00:25:52,740
So
557
00:25:52,740 --> 00:25:53,730
what do we do, Steve?
558
00:25:53,730 --> 00:25:55,620
Do we need to buy crypto?
559
00:25:56,655 --> 00:25:58,754
Everybody who's young
should be doing it.
560
00:25:58,814 --> 00:25:59,475
How much?
561
00:25:59,955 --> 00:26:05,085
Well, everybody has a certain,
uh, um, right now it, well,
562
00:26:05,085 --> 00:26:05,965
let's put it this way.
563
00:26:05,965 --> 00:26:07,605
Uh, I'll just tell you
the evolution of it.
564
00:26:07,635 --> 00:26:11,085
Um, like 10 years ago it was
everybody thought it was a toy.
565
00:26:11,385 --> 00:26:11,715
Yeah.
566
00:26:12,524 --> 00:26:14,985
I was buying Bitcoin in 2013.
567
00:26:16,955 --> 00:26:19,264
It should have been $50.
568
00:26:19,355 --> 00:26:19,745
Yeah.
569
00:26:19,774 --> 00:26:24,274
I was buying at $70 Canadian, which
was about $50 us in that year.
570
00:26:24,845 --> 00:26:29,254
And it was the early part of, you
know, it was still not clear if it
571
00:26:29,254 --> 00:26:32,375
was going to make it, or if it was
going to go mainstream, it was not
572
00:26:32,375 --> 00:26:33,935
clear that it was going to be big.
573
00:26:34,445 --> 00:26:37,925
Um, but I thought it would be
big as an idea as I was buying
574
00:26:37,925 --> 00:26:41,524
it at 70 Canadian and us 50 us.
575
00:26:41,524 --> 00:26:45,395
And today it's $63,000 per Bitcoin.
576
00:26:46,205 --> 00:26:50,855
And, um, all the experts in that
industry, uh, believe that it'll
577
00:26:50,855 --> 00:26:52,715
go five, six, seven times higher.
578
00:26:53,405 --> 00:26:53,915
And.
579
00:26:55,210 --> 00:26:58,900
A went up to a 15,000 peak prize.
580
00:26:58,900 --> 00:26:59,530
I remember.
581
00:26:59,660 --> 00:27:01,270
And I was like, damn,
582
00:27:01,530 --> 00:27:07,220
the whole world freaked out about
that in 2017, November Thanksgiving,
583
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,270
it's up to $5,000.
584
00:27:09,270 --> 00:27:13,830
And then a week it went up to 15.
585
00:27:14,190 --> 00:27:17,730
Then, then he, then he got a
little bit up to 21 and then
586
00:27:17,730 --> 00:27:20,220
it dropped again, $8,000.
587
00:27:20,220 --> 00:27:22,620
And I was like, I told you, yeah,
588
00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:25,230
well, you know, scam,
you know what happened?
589
00:27:25,230 --> 00:27:27,810
It was, um, the word had been
spreading, you know, I was
590
00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:33,450
early in 2013 and more and more
people, 2014, 2015, 2016 by 2017.
591
00:27:33,780 --> 00:27:35,670
All the college kids were into crypto.
592
00:27:35,780 --> 00:27:36,180
Right.
593
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:39,030
All of them, not all of
them, but it was the thing.
594
00:27:40,260 --> 00:27:42,480
And they all went home
to Thanksgiving in us.
595
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:44,189
Which is in November.
596
00:27:44,730 --> 00:27:47,850
And that's the big holiday where
everybody goes home and talks
597
00:27:47,850 --> 00:27:49,470
to the family for four days.
598
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,610
So all these college kids came
home and they told uncle Larry
599
00:27:53,610 --> 00:27:55,950
and aunt Sally about Bitcoin.
600
00:27:56,370 --> 00:28:00,210
And they all went out and bought
and Sally and the market pumped
601
00:28:00,210 --> 00:28:01,320
and nobody knew what it was.
602
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:02,909
So everybody freaked out and sold it.
603
00:28:03,210 --> 00:28:08,760
But ultimately, um, the price of
Bitcoin is much higher now than
604
00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:10,710
it was in the highest point then.
605
00:28:11,189 --> 00:28:15,450
And the reason why very simple, the
more people who adopt and use this,
606
00:28:15,480 --> 00:28:18,570
the more value it has, that's it.
607
00:28:19,110 --> 00:28:23,070
So there was about a million
people using Bitcoin in 2017.
608
00:28:23,100 --> 00:28:23,429
Today.
609
00:28:23,429 --> 00:28:27,270
There's about 10 million people
using Bitcoin in two years.
610
00:28:27,270 --> 00:28:30,960
There'll be about a hundred million
people using Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.
611
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:33,720
And actually we are the money aren't we?
612
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:39,060
I mean, if we decide to do work
together and we trade something here,
613
00:28:39,660 --> 00:28:42,420
Those that becomes valuable, right?
614
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,510
Because we're doing the
things that are paper.
615
00:28:45,570 --> 00:28:50,130
So if we agree that we're going to
use something to be the money system
616
00:28:50,130 --> 00:28:52,950
for us, it gets the value from us.
617
00:28:53,610 --> 00:28:57,570
And so actually the more people who
are using these things, the more
618
00:28:57,570 --> 00:28:59,730
value they're getting from the people.
619
00:29:00,240 --> 00:29:04,620
So this is almost what I call
the democratization of money.
620
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:08,670
This is what in ancient Greece
with democracy power to the people.
621
00:29:09,330 --> 00:29:15,149
It is, this is the ultimate power
to the people, because if you, you
622
00:29:15,149 --> 00:29:20,220
know, in Greece 2,500 years ago, uh,
they, they had the big idea to have
623
00:29:20,220 --> 00:29:24,120
democracy, which was a very odd idea
in that in the ancient cultures, right.
624
00:29:24,149 --> 00:29:28,649
They believed that the pharaohs
had to be appointed by God and
625
00:29:28,710 --> 00:29:30,389
that if that's how it happened.
626
00:29:30,389 --> 00:29:33,570
And nowadays we think
money is like a God.
627
00:29:33,570 --> 00:29:37,379
You know, we think that the banks
have to create the money it's comes
628
00:29:37,379 --> 00:29:43,110
from a God, but no, actually we
can, as people make our own tokens
629
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:44,790
and use them and give them value.
630
00:29:45,330 --> 00:29:49,770
And that was prohibited for
thousands of years because, uh, they
631
00:29:49,770 --> 00:29:53,700
controlled how the, the, the top
people in the societies controlled
632
00:29:53,700 --> 00:29:57,690
that process because creating money
is the most power you can have.
633
00:29:57,990 --> 00:30:02,550
Yeah, political power is way
behind money, power with money,
634
00:30:02,550 --> 00:30:04,380
you can buy political power, right?
635
00:30:04,710 --> 00:30:07,560
And with political power and
money, you can control armies.
636
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:12,930
So the ultimate power is, I would say
at the highest level is human power,
637
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:20,070
but enabled through, uh, being able to
express ourselves and have, um, freedom
638
00:30:20,460 --> 00:30:24,900
of being able to have the value of what
we create for each other, you know,
639
00:30:24,900 --> 00:30:29,310
come to our benefit and not be pulled
off siphoned off the top by somebody,
640
00:30:29,310 --> 00:30:36,020
uh, like a, um, like a parasite on top
of us taking our value away from us,
641
00:30:36,260 --> 00:30:39,230
pinpoint in the future
where you see that.
642
00:30:40,305 --> 00:30:42,525
That everything's going
to change to crypto.
643
00:30:42,825 --> 00:30:43,215
Yeah.
644
00:30:43,515 --> 00:30:47,075
Is it going to be over
a night or, I mean,
645
00:30:47,105 --> 00:30:49,415
almost, almost how,
646
00:30:49,745 --> 00:30:50,285
how do you
647
00:30:50,285 --> 00:30:51,005
picture that?
648
00:30:51,665 --> 00:30:55,115
Um, so I have successfully
predicted it for years.
649
00:30:55,115 --> 00:30:56,495
How it's playing out the first.
650
00:30:56,495 --> 00:30:58,565
Uh, that's why you have the Panda.
651
00:30:58,745 --> 00:30:59,165
Yeah.
652
00:30:59,195 --> 00:30:59,405
Yeah.
653
00:30:59,405 --> 00:31:01,865
I've been, I've been correct
on my guesses is about it.
654
00:31:02,255 --> 00:31:06,245
And, um, the first thing is to
understand how big is the market size.
655
00:31:07,115 --> 00:31:13,475
So, um, for example, um, the
turnover on the crypto, the amount
656
00:31:13,475 --> 00:31:16,925
of money that was spent on crypto,
uh, traded in cryptocurrency today.
657
00:31:17,460 --> 00:31:25,050
In 24 hours is equal to the GDP of
Greece, the gross domestic product
658
00:31:25,050 --> 00:31:28,740
of Greece, the amount of amount of
output that the country of Greece,
659
00:31:29,280 --> 00:31:31,680
5 billion, 200 billion, 200 billion.
660
00:31:32,220 --> 00:31:34,590
The GDP of Greece is $200 billion.
661
00:31:34,590 --> 00:31:37,890
And that's how much crypto
is traded in 24 hours.
662
00:31:38,370 --> 00:31:38,790
So.
663
00:31:39,300 --> 00:31:41,909
You see the market size
is still in the beginning.
664
00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:48,090
Um, the crypto was worth all the cryptos
together today are worth $2.1 trillion.
665
00:31:49,470 --> 00:31:52,679
I predicted that once it hit 1
trillion, which was maybe two
666
00:31:52,679 --> 00:31:56,159
months ago, that it hit 1 trillion,
that it will quickly go up.
667
00:31:56,159 --> 00:32:02,070
The five quickly means maybe nine
to 18 months timeframe within nine.
668
00:32:02,100 --> 00:32:05,909
Within, within 18 months, we
will probably see the crypto
669
00:32:05,909 --> 00:32:10,080
market cap at 5 trillion, more
than double what it is today.
670
00:32:10,110 --> 00:32:11,639
It could happen even faster.
671
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:16,370
Can I please a payment method
for my company in crypto?
672
00:32:16,820 --> 00:32:16,909
Okay.
673
00:32:16,940 --> 00:32:17,389
Of course.
674
00:32:17,810 --> 00:32:23,210
Um, I have a software company and
I pay my lawyer, my accountants, my
675
00:32:23,240 --> 00:32:29,179
contractors with cryptocurrency all
around the world, almost exclusively
676
00:32:29,750 --> 00:32:35,419
it's among 30 year old technology
oriented, digital oriented people.
677
00:32:35,774 --> 00:32:37,635
All of them are
accepting cryptocurrency.
678
00:32:37,635 --> 00:32:38,415
They prefer it.
679
00:32:38,445 --> 00:32:40,064
They don't want to deal with banks.
680
00:32:40,185 --> 00:32:44,324
Banks are a pain, too much
trouble, too much waste of time.
681
00:32:44,324 --> 00:32:45,705
They're closed on the weekends.
682
00:32:46,725 --> 00:32:48,645
Um, nothing but trouble.
683
00:32:48,975 --> 00:32:54,094
So, uh, people are really, um, are,
are using, uh, the crypto, but the,
684
00:32:54,094 --> 00:32:58,725
the market's size is, is over a hundred
trillion dollars of this market.
685
00:32:58,725 --> 00:33:01,904
So what happens is
we're at 2.1 trillion.
686
00:33:01,905 --> 00:33:06,885
Now, when you hear that crypto
hits 5 trillion, you're going
687
00:33:06,885 --> 00:33:09,645
to see gold rush coming.
688
00:33:09,675 --> 00:33:12,405
It's already starting, and I'm sure
you're already hearing about it and
689
00:33:12,405 --> 00:33:13,875
participating in it or something.
690
00:33:14,294 --> 00:33:17,745
But once it's 5 trillion, everybody's
going to be talking about crypto.
691
00:33:18,630 --> 00:33:18,790
Yeah,
692
00:33:18,790 --> 00:33:21,570
but I'm not taking action because
I'm trying to understand it.
693
00:33:21,570 --> 00:33:25,650
I mean, I understand it by
I'm trying to put myself in a
694
00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:29,490
place where I can actually do
695
00:33:29,490 --> 00:33:29,820
something.
696
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:30,710
Yeah.
697
00:33:30,770 --> 00:33:34,820
And it takes, it takes, um, it's
important to not do it because
698
00:33:34,820 --> 00:33:38,060
someone else told you it's important
to get the understanding about it.
699
00:33:38,450 --> 00:33:42,470
And that's why I try to educate about
it as well, because you know, you
700
00:33:42,470 --> 00:33:45,290
don't just like, you could just do
it because someone tells you to do
701
00:33:45,290 --> 00:33:49,070
it, but it's better to understand
what that is and make a decision
702
00:33:49,070 --> 00:33:51,770
that you know, what you're getting
into and you know what it is.
703
00:33:51,770 --> 00:33:56,930
So, uh, so if crypto hits 5 trillion,
it's going to go to 20 pretty quickly.
704
00:33:57,320 --> 00:34:01,820
And once it's at 20, um, it
breaks the banks actually, and
705
00:34:01,820 --> 00:34:03,320
they'll all switch over to crypto.
706
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:04,250
It's already happening.
707
00:34:04,370 --> 00:34:07,190
You know, it's really already
happening and governments are
708
00:34:07,190 --> 00:34:10,429
getting ready to issue their own
tokens and get into this market.
709
00:34:11,090 --> 00:34:11,960
This is nothing new.
710
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:15,800
This happened with
Christianity, this happened.
711
00:34:15,810 --> 00:34:17,449
And then the state took
it over in the end.
712
00:34:17,449 --> 00:34:17,750
Didn't they.
713
00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:22,489
From, uh, Cyprus was the first
adoption of state Christianity, right?
714
00:34:22,489 --> 00:34:25,009
So they, um, same with rock and roll.
715
00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,020
They first, they banded in UK, right?
716
00:34:27,139 --> 00:34:29,690
You weren't allowed to
listen to rock and roll.
717
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:31,159
They pirate radio.
718
00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:32,960
So you had to go off the shore.
719
00:34:33,170 --> 00:34:36,770
And the people would 20 million people
in UK who would be listening, uh,
720
00:34:36,799 --> 00:34:38,870
by their bed for the pirate radio.
721
00:34:38,870 --> 00:34:39,320
And they were the.
722
00:34:40,005 --> 00:34:44,535
Army was the Navy was Royal Navy
was chasing the pirate ships, but
723
00:34:44,535 --> 00:34:47,805
now all the big companies are,
uh, promoting music industry.
724
00:34:48,165 --> 00:34:50,865
They took it over and
they dominated in the end.
725
00:34:51,315 --> 00:34:54,795
Um, but not completely, but largely
726
00:34:56,315 --> 00:34:56,455
the
727
00:34:56,595 --> 00:34:59,565
same, the same will happen
with cryptocurrency.
728
00:34:59,565 --> 00:35:03,675
It will become the mainstream pretty
quickly and many people will have
729
00:35:03,675 --> 00:35:05,025
missed it to tell you the truth.
730
00:35:05,025 --> 00:35:10,125
And I think that's a shame because,
um, you know, this is the biggest
731
00:35:10,575 --> 00:35:13,605
opportunity in the world for
young people to make money because
732
00:35:13,605 --> 00:35:14,835
it's very hard to make money.
733
00:35:15,165 --> 00:35:17,505
There's not many opportunities
if you're not from a wealthy
734
00:35:17,505 --> 00:35:19,185
family or is handed real estate.
735
00:35:19,575 --> 00:35:22,425
Um, how are you gonna make
a lot of money nowadays?
736
00:35:22,425 --> 00:35:25,005
Like, uh, um, buying real estate.
737
00:35:25,270 --> 00:35:28,720
The banks don't lend, it's hard
to get enough cash to do that.
738
00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:31,930
The stock market, nobody
trusts the stock market.
739
00:35:31,990 --> 00:35:36,190
You know, if you put 20,000 euros,
so with 20,000 euros, which is
740
00:35:36,190 --> 00:35:39,790
what the average, uh, person
in Europe, young person might
741
00:35:39,850 --> 00:35:41,410
be able to get their hands on.
742
00:35:41,740 --> 00:35:42,670
How can they make money?
743
00:35:42,670 --> 00:35:43,360
They cannot.
744
00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:48,040
So actually crypto is probably one
of the only ways that they can have
745
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:51,580
a good chance to make money, but they
have to understand it and research
746
00:35:51,580 --> 00:35:53,170
it and they have to go do the work.
747
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:57,100
They can't just go listen to one person,
say it and do it or not do it and blame
748
00:35:57,100 --> 00:36:01,840
somebody if it works out or they have
to go learn and ask friends about it.
749
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:06,670
But I would say that it's a once,
not even once in a lifetime it's
750
00:36:06,670 --> 00:36:11,170
once in 2000 years that a culture
shifts so quickly on a level.
751
00:36:11,865 --> 00:36:12,674
Of money.
752
00:36:12,944 --> 00:36:17,325
The, you know, the, this, what we call
the money is going from old to young.
753
00:36:17,505 --> 00:36:18,045
Okay.
754
00:36:18,795 --> 00:36:22,095
And that's unbelievably good for
the world because imagine if the
755
00:36:22,095 --> 00:36:25,455
money's coming from the old guys
to the young guys and think the
756
00:36:25,455 --> 00:36:28,424
old people, they were trained by
their grandfather in the year, the
757
00:36:28,424 --> 00:36:31,935
grandfather grew up in the year 1800,
a guy who's seven years old today.
758
00:36:32,670 --> 00:36:37,320
He got advice from his grandfather,
who his grandfather was from 1800.
759
00:36:37,740 --> 00:36:39,390
And how different is the world today?
760
00:36:39,450 --> 00:36:43,080
From 1800, we need to get the money
into the hands of the young people
761
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:44,730
because it's moving too fast.
762
00:36:44,850 --> 00:36:46,140
Technology is too fast.
763
00:36:46,140 --> 00:36:50,610
The young people need to guide the way
into the future, not the old people,
764
00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,680
because things are in a state of change.
765
00:36:53,220 --> 00:36:57,840
So actually any young person who doesn't
get into cryptocurrency is really,
766
00:36:58,350 --> 00:37:02,520
uh, ripping themselves off by not
learning about it and trying to see,
767
00:37:02,580 --> 00:37:05,279
um, how they can, uh, benefit from it.
768
00:37:05,790 --> 00:37:08,970
And they shouldn't be getting in from
like what I call like the trading day
769
00:37:08,970 --> 00:37:13,290
trading, you know, try to make a catch
a pump and this gambling don't do that.
770
00:37:13,860 --> 00:37:18,509
Pick a few tokens that you think that
you understand and that you really like.
771
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:21,509
Well, I like, um, the big ones.
772
00:37:22,575 --> 00:37:26,555
Um, uh, because they have huge,
infrastructure's huge communities,
773
00:37:26,615 --> 00:37:29,075
trust, huge brands, huge trust
774
00:37:29,075 --> 00:37:29,765
and momentum.
775
00:37:30,245 --> 00:37:33,305
It stands over the cryptocurrency thing.
776
00:37:33,305 --> 00:37:34,865
Now it's something else.
777
00:37:34,865 --> 00:37:35,405
It's a brand.
778
00:37:35,705 --> 00:37:36,005
Yeah.
779
00:37:36,035 --> 00:37:38,435
I think you have to default to Bitcoin.
780
00:37:38,675 --> 00:37:39,125
Okay.
781
00:37:39,665 --> 00:37:42,275
Uh, I think you, I don't think
you can now you're not going to
782
00:37:42,275 --> 00:37:44,795
make these huge gains anymore.
783
00:37:44,825 --> 00:37:48,905
Like I know friends, I have
friends that made literally
784
00:37:48,905 --> 00:37:51,185
billions of dollars from Bitcoin.
785
00:37:51,365 --> 00:37:52,565
Uh, literally
786
00:37:53,225 --> 00:37:54,545
when it was $20.
787
00:37:55,145 --> 00:37:55,505
Yeah.
788
00:37:55,535 --> 00:38:00,095
Like one, one, one, one person
bought at, um, well he made a
789
00:38:00,095 --> 00:38:03,845
million dollars of Bitcoin in the
year, 2014 and he sold it and he
790
00:38:03,845 --> 00:38:05,465
bought a theory him at 20 cents.
791
00:38:05,525 --> 00:38:09,425
So he had a million dollars of
Bitcoin and he bought a theorem at
792
00:38:09,425 --> 00:38:11,525
20 cents with a million dollars.
793
00:38:11,555 --> 00:38:15,425
How much the theory of, uh, $2,200.
794
00:38:16,115 --> 00:38:17,285
So I don't know what it is.
795
00:38:17,285 --> 00:38:18,245
He made a
796
00:38:20,135 --> 00:38:21,065
crypto currency.
797
00:38:22,050 --> 00:38:22,770
Going around.
798
00:38:23,430 --> 00:38:23,730
Yeah.
799
00:38:24,070 --> 00:38:24,740
Yeah, yeah.
800
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:28,310
You're, you're gonna, it's gonna
be, um, you know, the kids who
801
00:38:28,310 --> 00:38:33,400
are 10 years old today and they'll
grow up using cryptocurrency.
802
00:38:33,410 --> 00:38:33,500
Okay.
803
00:38:33,580 --> 00:38:34,040
Was just like
804
00:38:34,460 --> 00:38:36,980
you wrote dollar yen,
805
00:38:37,340 --> 00:38:39,110
Bitcoin, Ethereum.
806
00:38:39,770 --> 00:38:40,250
Excellent.
807
00:38:40,970 --> 00:38:43,910
If there Bitcoin PFS
808
00:38:44,420 --> 00:38:45,520
TFC, TFC.
809
00:38:45,710 --> 00:38:46,070
Yeah.
810
00:38:46,100 --> 00:38:50,990
We think we're going to make it up
there because, um, uh, because we
811
00:38:50,990 --> 00:38:54,920
have the ability to get a hundred
million people into our ecosystem,
812
00:38:54,980 --> 00:38:59,480
you know, um, because every
person who gets the football app.
813
00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:02,760
Gets the football coin
wallet inside of it.
814
00:39:03,570 --> 00:39:09,390
So we're their first exposure to
cryptocurrency is often through us.
815
00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:16,200
They many people, 99% of the people we
have in our social network, you know,
816
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:19,710
which again, a quarter million people,
isn't a lot in a social network right
817
00:39:19,710 --> 00:39:24,780
now, but it's an impressive start cause
it's growing like a ramp, but we have
818
00:39:24,780 --> 00:39:28,140
160,000 people who hold the TFC token.
819
00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:31,590
And actually that's in
the top 30 in the world.
820
00:39:31,650 --> 00:39:34,980
So we're in the 30th, we're in the
30 largest crypto communities on
821
00:39:34,980 --> 00:39:37,320
the planet earth with that number.
822
00:39:37,460 --> 00:39:38,420
How come the Zacks
823
00:39:38,420 --> 00:39:40,340
didn't see that opportunity.
824
00:39:40,460 --> 00:39:44,360
I mean, I've been reading for
ages that they were trying to.
825
00:39:44,700 --> 00:39:50,190
Find a way integrating the
blockchain community with Facebook,
826
00:39:50,220 --> 00:39:51,899
but haven't seen anything.
827
00:39:52,310 --> 00:39:56,569
Well, they tried to do it and they
were stopped from doing it by whom?
828
00:39:56,810 --> 00:39:58,040
By France and Germany.
829
00:39:58,370 --> 00:39:58,850
Okay.
830
00:39:59,210 --> 00:40:01,100
Yeah, because it was
a threat to the Euro.
831
00:40:01,580 --> 00:40:06,770
The Facebook would have ended
the, the Euro and, uh, and, um,
832
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:12,589
so imagine, um, that, uh, this
is a good example to talk about.
833
00:40:12,589 --> 00:40:14,390
So Facebook did everything wrong.
834
00:40:14,419 --> 00:40:18,560
I don't think they understand how
to do this game and they still, and
835
00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:21,890
they were too much of a threat, you
know, to, to be allowed to play it
836
00:40:22,040 --> 00:40:24,440
because they are a specific company.
837
00:40:24,620 --> 00:40:28,040
They have a headquarters
and they have a lot to lose.
838
00:40:28,100 --> 00:40:29,870
They're worth 700 billion.
839
00:40:29,870 --> 00:40:31,069
If they take a risk.
840
00:40:31,395 --> 00:40:32,775
And they lose that money.
841
00:40:33,225 --> 00:40:35,325
There are shareholders
will scream, right?
842
00:40:35,625 --> 00:40:38,415
So they aren't willing to take
the risk to play this game.
843
00:40:39,075 --> 00:40:41,655
Uh, but imagine the Facebook token.
844
00:40:41,925 --> 00:40:46,665
So imagine a 14 year old kid has a
Facebook, uh, inside Facebook, they
845
00:40:46,665 --> 00:40:51,165
have the Facebook coin and the Facebook
coin is what all their friends spend.
846
00:40:51,165 --> 00:40:54,765
And every business accepts the
Facebook coin who is on Facebook.
847
00:40:54,765 --> 00:40:59,025
And, uh, it becomes within 10
years, if you were to ask a kid,
848
00:40:59,025 --> 00:41:02,355
have you the, have you heard of the
Euro, the dollar, maybe they still
849
00:41:02,355 --> 00:41:06,885
exist underneath the kid would say,
what's the dollar, what's a Euro.
850
00:41:06,885 --> 00:41:08,955
Is that something like Unix or Linux?
851
00:41:09,005 --> 00:41:10,895
We were trading in euros.
852
00:41:11,595 --> 00:41:14,105
We would trade with Fortnite coins in
853
00:41:15,305 --> 00:41:16,385
.
And so that's it.
854
00:41:16,505 --> 00:41:16,895
Yeah,
855
00:41:17,495 --> 00:41:23,315
where's the e-gaming industry
fit into all this because I'm
856
00:41:23,315 --> 00:41:28,715
watching my son play video
games and he's way into buying.
857
00:41:29,535 --> 00:41:31,665
Game tokens.
858
00:41:32,265 --> 00:41:33,674
He doesn't care about the Euro.
859
00:41:33,825 --> 00:41:37,185
Just give me, I mean,
she probably values.
860
00:41:37,875 --> 00:41:42,075
Five, the tape B-roll star
coins more than five years.
861
00:41:42,455 --> 00:41:42,725
Yeah.
862
00:41:42,755 --> 00:41:46,115
And in the future, those will
be, uh, whatever tokens are hot
863
00:41:46,115 --> 00:41:50,795
with the kids will be accepted at
McDonald's at KFC, at movie theaters
864
00:41:51,214 --> 00:41:53,225
as money traded on exchanges.
865
00:41:53,645 --> 00:41:59,035
That's what I'm saying is that if the
kids, um, uh, all value it and hold it.
866
00:41:59,430 --> 00:42:02,340
Uh, the businesses will want it
and it'll trade on exchanges.
867
00:42:02,340 --> 00:42:05,430
And so that's why I'm saying
community-based money wherever
868
00:42:05,430 --> 00:42:09,990
you find a mass group of people
who gets into a particular token.
869
00:42:09,990 --> 00:42:14,610
So that's why I said that the football
coin could be big because we can get
870
00:42:14,610 --> 00:42:16,230
a massive group of people together.
871
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:19,080
Of course, Facebook would be
the biggest money in the world,
872
00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:22,290
but they are too big and they're
not going to be allowed to play.
873
00:42:22,950 --> 00:42:26,010
And they made a strategic
mistakes as well.
874
00:42:26,100 --> 00:42:29,550
And as well as telegram, telegram
wanted to create their own token.
875
00:42:30,240 --> 00:42:33,480
And, um, they made a number of
mistakes and also they were too
876
00:42:33,480 --> 00:42:35,250
big to play and they got shot down.
877
00:42:35,250 --> 00:42:39,480
So something like us who is no threat
to the system, we're a tiny, uh, social
878
00:42:39,480 --> 00:42:44,130
community and we're growing organically
and we're going to be allowed to play
879
00:42:44,130 --> 00:42:47,010
because we made a few good decisions.
880
00:42:47,070 --> 00:42:49,230
You know, we learned from
their mistakes actually.
881
00:42:49,860 --> 00:42:51,420
And we're not a threat to the system.
882
00:42:51,450 --> 00:42:57,150
We're just a, uh, a small community
that has a token that's used for
883
00:42:57,150 --> 00:43:01,259
certain specific, uh, reasons in the
app and it can grow and grow and grow.
884
00:43:01,860 --> 00:43:04,170
And the other reason that
we're going to succeed.
885
00:43:04,799 --> 00:43:09,419
Is because, um, you know, the goal of
our social network isn't to make me
886
00:43:09,419 --> 00:43:13,319
into Mark Zuckerberg, where I'm the big
guy and I make all the big decisions,
887
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:18,120
it's a really a community and the money
gets distributed through the community.
888
00:43:18,390 --> 00:43:23,669
And, uh, it's, um, kind of, uh,
sharing a pirate style, wealth
889
00:43:23,669 --> 00:43:28,319
sharing, you know, or everybody who
participates takes from the tokens.
890
00:43:28,319 --> 00:43:29,700
And it's more fair.
891
00:43:30,149 --> 00:43:34,830
And it's also more exciting because,
you know, you can benefit, uh, as
892
00:43:34,830 --> 00:43:38,700
a user, uh, by sharing in the value
of what you're creating, you know,
893
00:43:38,700 --> 00:43:40,529
why should they create the value?
894
00:43:40,529 --> 00:43:45,080
And I take all the value, they should
be getting value of what they create for
895
00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:45,770
the ones who've done.
896
00:43:45,770 --> 00:43:48,140
No pirates used to do.
897
00:43:48,230 --> 00:43:49,730
It used to be a pirate law.
898
00:43:50,355 --> 00:43:57,555
They were sharing the treasures from
this Spaniards and the English, and
899
00:43:57,555 --> 00:44:03,195
they were voting for the actions
that would have been taken in any
900
00:44:03,195 --> 00:44:03,915
case.
901
00:44:04,185 --> 00:44:06,155
Yeah, they were, and
same with the Viking.
902
00:44:06,165 --> 00:44:10,055
So, you know, the, in our culture
and, and, and, and, and who
903
00:44:10,055 --> 00:44:13,895
labeled these people Vikings and,
uh, pirates the British, right.
904
00:44:14,435 --> 00:44:18,155
And they're the real pirates, and
they're not the British people.
905
00:44:18,155 --> 00:44:20,745
I love the British people,
but the control system that
906
00:44:20,855 --> 00:44:23,105
was in the UK, um, there were
907
00:44:23,105 --> 00:44:25,205
ex commanders commanders,
908
00:44:25,705 --> 00:44:28,805
and there, there nothing,
all bad about that, but even
909
00:44:28,805 --> 00:44:31,085
the Vikings also, um, shared.
910
00:44:31,295 --> 00:44:37,745
And if the Vikings were so bad, how
come Scandinavia, uh, Denmark and Sweden
911
00:44:37,745 --> 00:44:39,995
are such egalitarian societies, right?
912
00:44:40,025 --> 00:44:41,435
They have the Viking culture.
913
00:44:41,735 --> 00:44:44,135
It's actually very fair society.
914
00:44:44,259 --> 00:44:45,310
That they've implemented.
915
00:44:45,310 --> 00:44:49,299
They share the revenues of,
uh, they are very egalitarian.
916
00:44:49,299 --> 00:44:53,649
And so I think we have to,
um, kind of go back from the
917
00:44:53,649 --> 00:44:55,180
central control structure.
918
00:44:55,930 --> 00:44:58,899
We have to allow new ideas
to come into the world.
919
00:44:58,899 --> 00:45:03,640
We need young people to, uh, have money
and we need them to be able to make the
920
00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:06,339
future because it's moving very fast.
921
00:45:06,370 --> 00:45:09,669
The technology, like you said,
e-gaming the kids understand digital.
922
00:45:09,700 --> 00:45:10,779
They grew up with digital
923
00:45:11,460 --> 00:45:13,140
they're exchanging cards, Steve.
924
00:45:13,830 --> 00:45:14,160
Yeah.
925
00:45:14,339 --> 00:45:17,370
They're exchanging how,
how, how do they call them?
926
00:45:18,089 --> 00:45:19,680
Uh, not screenshots.
927
00:45:19,710 --> 00:45:21,870
Um, the NFTs.
928
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:22,950
The NFTs.
929
00:45:22,950 --> 00:45:23,549
Yeah.
930
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:23,970
Yeah.
931
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:25,620
There's another name for NFTs.
932
00:45:26,310 --> 00:45:29,279
Um, it's it's not a theme.
933
00:45:29,279 --> 00:45:31,470
It's a come on.
934
00:45:31,500 --> 00:45:34,799
Ellen rabbit skins.
935
00:45:34,890 --> 00:45:35,399
Oh yeah.
936
00:45:36,225 --> 00:45:36,585
Yeah.
937
00:45:37,575 --> 00:45:37,845
Yeah.
938
00:45:37,875 --> 00:45:40,305
And do you know what else these
kids have, which is different
939
00:45:40,305 --> 00:45:44,025
than, let's say my generation
technology savvy, they're tech
940
00:45:44,025 --> 00:45:45,765
savvy, but they have one other thing.
941
00:45:46,095 --> 00:45:50,355
They, they work as a group when I was
young, we were fighting each other
942
00:45:50,715 --> 00:45:52,755
and we didn't cooperate that much.
943
00:45:52,815 --> 00:45:53,955
They support their community.
944
00:45:53,955 --> 00:45:56,595
They work together and, you know,
they, as they also don't have
945
00:45:56,595 --> 00:46:01,125
this sort of, um, nationality, uh,
prejudice that we were growing up with.
946
00:46:02,265 --> 00:46:02,515
Yeah.
947
00:46:02,595 --> 00:46:05,565
They grew up and they play with
kids all around the world and
948
00:46:05,565 --> 00:46:09,345
they all have a common theme and
they work together and they share.
949
00:46:09,735 --> 00:46:14,235
So actually we really do need to empower
that because that is the way of the
950
00:46:14,235 --> 00:46:18,165
future and all these guys who, again,
controlled the, created the, the,
951
00:46:18,165 --> 00:46:20,085
the, the political and money system.
952
00:46:20,625 --> 00:46:22,245
And I don't want to be too mean to them.
953
00:46:22,275 --> 00:46:27,675
Let's say, thank you to them because
maybe 150 years ago, they helped
954
00:46:27,675 --> 00:46:29,385
advance things for the memories.
955
00:46:29,730 --> 00:46:31,470
Yeah, but that's what
it is at this point.
956
00:46:31,470 --> 00:46:34,350
We have to say goodbye at some
point to say, look, thank you for
957
00:46:34,350 --> 00:46:36,210
helping whatever you you've done.
958
00:46:36,690 --> 00:46:40,680
Uh, we're going to take it from here
as a community altogether, right?
959
00:46:40,680 --> 00:46:41,970
With all these new tokens,
960
00:46:41,970 --> 00:46:42,690
the system's going
961
00:46:42,690 --> 00:46:43,200
to react.
962
00:46:43,230 --> 00:46:45,450
They're going to react, but they
can't do that much about it.
963
00:46:45,450 --> 00:46:47,160
Just like they couldn't
stop rock and roll.
964
00:46:47,399 --> 00:46:48,899
They couldn't stop big ideas
965
00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:51,830
back in the thirties, in the U S
966
00:46:52,730 --> 00:46:54,259
they couldn't stop for a long time.
967
00:46:54,259 --> 00:46:55,490
They couldn't stop democracy.
968
00:46:55,490 --> 00:46:59,060
Do you think the Persian empire
tried to come and wipe Greece
969
00:46:59,060 --> 00:47:00,319
off the face of the earth?
970
00:47:00,350 --> 00:47:04,490
They sent 2 million people and
at the time, living in Greece was
971
00:47:04,490 --> 00:47:06,680
about 70,000 people in Athens.
972
00:47:07,250 --> 00:47:11,120
So can you imagine hearing that
there's 2 million people sailing to
973
00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:15,259
wipe you off the face of the earth and
there's 70,000 of people in a city.
974
00:47:15,810 --> 00:47:20,460
And actually, but you know, what happens
is when we find a good idea, we're
975
00:47:20,460 --> 00:47:22,080
willing to fight for it, you know?
976
00:47:22,110 --> 00:47:24,740
Cause we don't, we don't want
to be slaves in some way.
977
00:47:24,800 --> 00:47:25,040
And at the
978
00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:30,140
same time, when a good idea comes
and like drives us to changing
979
00:47:30,140 --> 00:47:33,980
the world, we know there's going
to be resistance from the old
980
00:47:33,980 --> 00:47:34,280
world.
981
00:47:34,550 --> 00:47:36,140
Of course there is.
982
00:47:36,140 --> 00:47:40,160
But I think that already the
resistance has turned and
983
00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:41,750
this is what another dynamic
984
00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:47,840
look at the example with the,
what stock, what was the name
985
00:47:47,840 --> 00:47:49,250
of the stock a month ago?
986
00:47:49,460 --> 00:47:51,380
Where they went on
987
00:47:51,590 --> 00:47:54,320
Reddit, GME game stop.
988
00:47:54,350 --> 00:47:54,920
Yeah.
989
00:47:56,220 --> 00:47:57,069
That was hilarious.
990
00:47:57,089 --> 00:47:57,930
Their hack, their
991
00:47:57,930 --> 00:47:58,709
system.
992
00:47:59,009 --> 00:47:59,310
Yeah.
993
00:47:59,859 --> 00:48:00,240
Red.
994
00:48:00,240 --> 00:48:01,500
It was it, was it
995
00:48:01,980 --> 00:48:02,310
Reddit?
996
00:48:02,339 --> 00:48:02,490
Was it?
997
00:48:02,779 --> 00:48:03,049
Yeah.
998
00:48:03,049 --> 00:48:04,009
Well, that's right.
999
00:48:04,009 --> 00:48:07,490
So it was a Reddit group
called, uh, wall street bets
1000
00:48:07,879 --> 00:48:09,080
that had 2 million members.
1001
00:48:09,080 --> 00:48:13,609
Now there's 10 million members
and they went after, um, wall
1002
00:48:13,609 --> 00:48:14,959
street had bet against the stock.
1003
00:48:14,959 --> 00:48:16,129
So the stock was it.
1004
00:48:18,049 --> 00:48:19,129
They bought a stock.
1005
00:48:19,529 --> 00:48:21,149
They bought two different ones.
1006
00:48:21,180 --> 00:48:23,160
Uh, they bought three,
they bought three.
1007
00:48:23,580 --> 00:48:25,470
Um, they bought the movie theater stock.
1008
00:48:25,500 --> 00:48:27,359
Uh, I can't remember which
one it was, but they bought
1009
00:48:27,359 --> 00:48:29,120
the game was the most famous.
1010
00:48:29,580 --> 00:48:32,540
That's the one that I drove it
up, but you know what it is.
1011
00:48:32,540 --> 00:48:37,730
It's an exercise of collective people,
power empowered through social networks
1012
00:48:37,730 --> 00:48:39,049
and message from the future, I
1013
00:48:39,049 --> 00:48:39,620
would say.
1014
00:48:39,710 --> 00:48:40,250
Yeah, it is.
1015
00:48:40,310 --> 00:48:42,680
And now they're going to
start to do this in crypto.
1016
00:48:42,980 --> 00:48:46,910
You see the problem is they pumped
up game stop, but game stop.
1017
00:48:46,939 --> 00:48:51,109
The more P isn't isn't worth that
much money as it's they pumped it up.
1018
00:48:51,140 --> 00:48:54,080
But if you put your money behind,
if you get behind a token,
1019
00:48:54,470 --> 00:48:57,980
because token doesn't need
cashflow, it just needs adoption.
1020
00:48:58,279 --> 00:49:03,859
So if they pump up a crypto token like
doge coin or TFC, or, uh, Ethereum,
1021
00:49:04,490 --> 00:49:09,259
the more people who buy and hold
Ethereum, the more valuable it becomes,
1022
00:49:09,529 --> 00:49:11,210
the more people will hold a stock.
1023
00:49:11,250 --> 00:49:12,649
Doesn't make it more valuable.
1024
00:49:12,680 --> 00:49:13,100
Do you see it?
1025
00:49:13,100 --> 00:49:16,759
I mean, it doesn't make the company
have profits, so actually those people
1026
00:49:16,759 --> 00:49:18,379
are going to be coming into crypto.
1027
00:49:18,585 --> 00:49:22,424
And a Binance, the big exchange
just announced that they're
1028
00:49:22,424 --> 00:49:23,985
have stocks now on Binance.
1029
00:49:23,985 --> 00:49:26,145
So you can buy not only
cryptocurrencies, but
1030
00:49:26,145 --> 00:49:27,195
you can buy stocks.
1031
00:49:27,615 --> 00:49:30,945
So those 10 million people are
going to be coming into crypto.
1032
00:49:31,424 --> 00:49:33,045
And so you can see the energies.
1033
00:49:33,045 --> 00:49:37,935
Um, the transformation is is happening
and it's the biggest money-making
1034
00:49:37,935 --> 00:49:43,545
opportunity in human history, bigger
than a gold rush, bigger than anything.
1035
00:49:43,805 --> 00:49:44,255
Do we have
1036
00:49:44,255 --> 00:49:46,475
Steve, five years?
1037
00:49:47,165 --> 00:49:50,225
You don't have five years, two
years, two and a half years.
1038
00:49:50,404 --> 00:49:50,975
Damn.
1039
00:49:51,395 --> 00:49:52,775
I don't got money here.
1040
00:49:53,404 --> 00:49:56,945
I've invested my money in
the company in my house.
1041
00:49:56,945 --> 00:49:57,845
So what should I do?
1042
00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:01,230
Well, you know, everybody has
to make their own decisions.
1043
00:50:01,230 --> 00:50:05,879
But what I would tell you the following
is, um, you've got to follow your
1044
00:50:05,879 --> 00:50:07,200
instincts and do your research.
1045
00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:12,779
But if you, um, if you don't need
something, if there's a second car that
1046
00:50:12,779 --> 00:50:16,500
you have, that you don't need to live
with, sell it and buy Bitcoin with it.
1047
00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:20,580
But remember, Bitcoin can only go five
or six times up and it could go down.
1048
00:50:20,609 --> 00:50:24,810
Of course it could go down, but
let's say that it doesn't bother you.
1049
00:50:25,020 --> 00:50:25,319
It does.
1050
00:50:25,350 --> 00:50:25,680
No.
1051
00:50:25,710 --> 00:50:28,500
The point is that you should bend
things you really believe in.
1052
00:50:28,620 --> 00:50:29,279
Do you know what I mean?
1053
00:50:29,279 --> 00:50:33,390
So that if you're willing to stick
with it, but there are certain
1054
00:50:33,390 --> 00:50:36,600
tokens that can go up a thousand
times, there are certain tokens
1055
00:50:36,600 --> 00:50:37,980
that can go up a hundred times.
1056
00:50:38,370 --> 00:50:40,799
There are certain tokens
that can go up 10 times.
1057
00:50:41,220 --> 00:50:42,089
Bitcoin is in the.
1058
00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:44,350
Already gone up 10000%.
1059
00:50:44,350 --> 00:50:44,980
So it can go up.
1060
00:50:45,100 --> 00:50:47,350
Maybe it can go up
another five or six times.
1061
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:50,710
I'm not saying it will, there's no
one knows the future, but it's my
1062
00:50:50,770 --> 00:50:56,580
and other people's, uh, guests, but
there are tokens that you could find
1063
00:50:56,910 --> 00:51:00,899
that with a small amount of money,
you could actually get into them.
1064
00:51:01,230 --> 00:51:05,850
And if they go up a hundred times or a
thousand times, you do incredibly well
1065
00:51:05,850 --> 00:51:07,500
in the stock market, there were almost.
1066
00:51:07,980 --> 00:51:10,529
Rare that you would have a stock
that could go a thousand times.
1067
00:51:10,710 --> 00:51:13,920
They did Amazon did,
but it took 25 years.
1068
00:51:14,220 --> 00:51:16,799
But you see in crypto can
happen in two and a half years.
1069
00:51:16,830 --> 00:51:22,410
And that's also why people like the
market and why people like the things
1070
00:51:22,410 --> 00:51:26,640
like TFC that we've created is we've
created opportunities that those
1071
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:32,430
things are possible in that industry
and that people, um, can, and it can
1072
00:51:32,430 --> 00:51:38,310
happen or not happen relatively quickly
a few years instead of 2020 years.
1073
00:51:38,730 --> 00:51:42,870
And that's very unusual because in
stocks and you know, these are, these
1074
00:51:42,870 --> 00:51:46,920
are because you have a sh anytime
you have a huge shift, you have a
1075
00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:48,480
lot of money making opportunities.
1076
00:51:48,480 --> 00:51:53,759
And so I think the key thing is to just
start getting educated about it and,
1077
00:51:53,810 --> 00:51:56,400
and, and start doing some small step.
1078
00:51:56,430 --> 00:51:57,240
Do you see what I mean?
1079
00:51:57,540 --> 00:51:58,170
Because.
1080
00:51:58,350 --> 00:51:59,640
I feel the same way there.
1081
00:51:59,730 --> 00:52:01,680
I could have put more into cryptos.
1082
00:52:01,680 --> 00:52:05,190
And I think back in, I should have done
more of this day in that day, but at
1083
00:52:05,190 --> 00:52:07,200
least I got it in late a little bit.
1084
00:52:07,260 --> 00:52:09,780
And now I gained from
that a lot, you know?
1085
00:52:09,780 --> 00:52:14,100
So actually it's good to just take
some efforts and do what you can
1086
00:52:14,100 --> 00:52:18,330
do, even if it's $30 and you sit
it there, you've done something.
1087
00:52:18,330 --> 00:52:19,980
And then you sneak another 50 in there.
1088
00:52:19,990 --> 00:52:22,890
Then you sneak another
90, then you get familiar.
1089
00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:24,120
You just do what you can do.
1090
00:52:24,470 --> 00:52:24,690
Yeah.
1091
00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:25,550
The, you know,
1092
00:52:25,760 --> 00:52:29,120
the thing is instead of saving
money, you can invest your money to
1093
00:52:29,390 --> 00:52:29,930
crypto.
1094
00:52:30,470 --> 00:52:34,340
I think this is good because
what's the point of saving money.
1095
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:38,120
When the banks are printing it and
they're blocking your accounts,
1096
00:52:38,150 --> 00:52:39,710
that you can't even transfer it.
1097
00:52:40,130 --> 00:52:41,870
And they're in complete chaos.
1098
00:52:41,900 --> 00:52:44,690
We don't even know if the
Euro will exist in five years.
1099
00:52:44,780 --> 00:52:47,060
They don't even know if it
will exist in five years.
1100
00:52:47,140 --> 00:52:47,290
The
1101
00:52:47,290 --> 00:52:51,340
thing is the banks ask you
to save your money so that
1102
00:52:51,340 --> 00:52:54,010
they can give them elsewhere.
1103
00:52:54,760 --> 00:52:55,000
Yeah,
1104
00:52:55,030 --> 00:52:57,880
actually they lend it
to your competitor.
1105
00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:00,550
If you're a small restaurant,
you're putting your money in
1106
00:53:00,550 --> 00:53:03,490
the bank, they're printing
European, isn't printing as much.
1107
00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:04,960
The Euro is more stable.
1108
00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:08,980
They print less than the us dollar,
but not because they're bad people
1109
00:53:08,980 --> 00:53:13,030
because the way the system, the
algorithm is designed, they want to lend
1110
00:53:13,030 --> 00:53:14,680
money to the biggest safest company.
1111
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:19,120
So they give money to your competitor
to build, and they give him the
1112
00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:21,250
money to build a big shopping mall.
1113
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:24,400
And then they won't lend you
money to help your small business.
1114
00:53:24,460 --> 00:53:26,020
And the whole system is just.
1115
00:53:27,075 --> 00:53:28,634
I think it isn't about money.
1116
00:53:28,694 --> 00:53:31,964
I think that people should be actually
investing from their heart thinking.
1117
00:53:32,384 --> 00:53:34,395
We need to change this whole way.
1118
00:53:34,395 --> 00:53:37,484
The world is for the sake
of our kids and we need to
1119
00:53:37,484 --> 00:53:39,044
take some risks to do that.
1120
00:53:39,345 --> 00:53:42,315
We might make money, we
might lose money, but we're
1121
00:53:42,315 --> 00:53:44,055
going to affect some changes.
1122
00:53:44,300 --> 00:53:47,630
In the society, because we're
going to, uh, the Greeks had
1123
00:53:47,630 --> 00:53:49,430
to fight to risk their death.
1124
00:53:49,490 --> 00:53:53,120
We're only talking about losing a little
bit of money if, if somebody does a
1125
00:53:53,120 --> 00:53:58,550
small bit of working in the crypto, but
we also are risking something fantastic,
1126
00:53:58,610 --> 00:54:02,480
which is to make a lot of money and
actually to maybe change the game.
1127
00:54:02,720 --> 00:54:04,700
So the world we leave for our children.
1128
00:54:04,970 --> 00:54:08,510
Isn't so cutthroat as the world
that we're in right now, there's
1129
00:54:08,510 --> 00:54:09,890
benefits to it, you know?
1130
00:54:09,890 --> 00:54:13,470
And again, there's always some
good to the existing systems.
1131
00:54:13,470 --> 00:54:16,670
It's not all bad, but to
me, it's a tired game.
1132
00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:21,200
It's an old cutthroat game and we
need to take some risks to change.
1133
00:54:21,880 --> 00:54:22,870
I mean, Ellen did.
1134
00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:24,550
Yeah.
1135
00:54:24,550 --> 00:54:26,770
When you see that happening,
it has to be a signal.
1136
00:54:27,220 --> 00:54:31,090
It was a signal for me when I woke
up and or read the news on Bloomberg.
1137
00:54:31,090 --> 00:54:34,540
Was it, do you remember
DEMA Elon's tweet?
1138
00:54:34,900 --> 00:54:37,120
Did it tweet it or did he
bought, and then tweeted,
1139
00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:38,620
he bought an, that tweeted
1140
00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:40,900
and I was like, damn.
1141
00:54:41,265 --> 00:54:43,125
This thing is getting serious now.
1142
00:54:43,545 --> 00:54:47,475
And I was into studying and
listening to podcasts, mainly us
1143
00:54:47,475 --> 00:54:52,335
podcasts because I was liking,
ignoring the existence of it.
1144
00:54:52,335 --> 00:54:53,265
And I was like, okay.
1145
00:54:53,265 --> 00:54:54,945
And when the time comes,
I'll deal with it.
1146
00:54:54,945 --> 00:54:59,625
But when Eland Twitter, that Tesla boat
1147
00:55:00,205 --> 00:55:05,165
much, 1.5, 1.5, 1.3 billion
1148
00:55:05,555 --> 00:55:06,725
of beef coin.
1149
00:55:07,325 --> 00:55:10,265
I was like, okay, now the
game is getting serious
1150
00:55:10,265 --> 00:55:12,245
because, um, I worshiped bill.
1151
00:55:12,815 --> 00:55:15,575
I've got his book, um,
following his career.
1152
00:55:15,995 --> 00:55:19,475
He's one of the few that's going to
take the world to the next level.
1153
00:55:19,865 --> 00:55:25,325
And when he tweeted about
blockchain, Bitcoin was okay.
1154
00:55:25,325 --> 00:55:33,125
Now it's the time to, and then a week
ago, a week after, under, as the DME,
1155
00:55:34,115 --> 00:55:37,295
my partner came in, he was, he meet.
1156
00:55:38,549 --> 00:55:42,509
I had a friend, I have a friend
he's into blockchain love
1157
00:55:42,870 --> 00:55:44,279
and she gave me a Tita bar.
1158
00:55:44,609 --> 00:55:49,379
He gave me a tip about a currency,
a Bitcoin currency, not a
1159
00:55:49,379 --> 00:55:50,759
Bitcoin currency cryptocurrency.
1160
00:55:51,509 --> 00:55:56,939
And he asked me, and he asked me to, do
you want to invest 500 euros on that?
1161
00:55:57,450 --> 00:56:00,209
And I told him, yes, do it.
1162
00:56:00,720 --> 00:56:01,410
I trust you.
1163
00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:02,009
I don't care.
1164
00:56:02,009 --> 00:56:02,640
We will lose it.
1165
00:56:02,700 --> 00:56:03,569
It's 500.
1166
00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:11,459
I mean, we could as well pull them
down the balcony and then Andreas DME.
1167
00:56:11,459 --> 00:56:13,109
And I was like, it's karma.
1168
00:56:14,040 --> 00:56:14,330
Yeah.
1169
00:56:14,899 --> 00:56:19,009
At this point you have to wonder,
is it more risky to keep your
1170
00:56:19,009 --> 00:56:23,270
money in the old system than to
start taking some risks, to get
1171
00:56:24,089 --> 00:56:25,370
money in the old system?
1172
00:56:25,370 --> 00:56:25,910
The banks.
1173
00:56:26,714 --> 00:56:30,404
Lended to others, the, the
sprit, our money, you only
1174
00:56:30,404 --> 00:56:33,855
keep homage a percent, 3%, 10%.
1175
00:56:33,855 --> 00:56:34,395
How much?
1176
00:56:34,654 --> 00:56:36,005
Oh, it's worse than you can imagine.
1177
00:56:36,065 --> 00:56:41,045
It's it's um, if we do an analogy of how
the existing system works, if you can
1178
00:56:41,045 --> 00:56:47,525
understand how I see it and how I see
it, the way that the, the generation of
1179
00:56:47,585 --> 00:56:51,154
I represent kind of that generation of
people who created Bitcoin, it's my age
1180
00:56:51,185 --> 00:56:53,285
group and my peer group in some ways.
1181
00:56:54,305 --> 00:56:59,285
And the way that we saw it was
the banks had, um, not even the
1182
00:56:59,285 --> 00:57:02,944
banks, the central banks and the
families that own the central banks.
1183
00:57:02,944 --> 00:57:05,375
Can you imagine two to do an analogy?
1184
00:57:05,375 --> 00:57:08,495
Let's talk about, let's say
today we were given the license
1185
00:57:08,495 --> 00:57:10,265
to create the new Cyprus pound.
1186
00:57:10,475 --> 00:57:13,115
Let's say they left the Euro and
they give us a document and say,
1187
00:57:13,115 --> 00:57:17,765
you're allowed to create the new
Cyprus pound printed in the same.
1188
00:57:17,765 --> 00:57:19,265
Let's say the same doesn't even matter.
1189
00:57:20,165 --> 00:57:21,995
And the government said,
we'll give you the license.
1190
00:57:21,995 --> 00:57:26,225
And all we want is half the,
uh, Half the money you create.
1191
00:57:27,455 --> 00:57:32,095
So we get our computer open and
we write down how much money we're
1192
00:57:32,095 --> 00:57:33,745
creating and that's what they do.
1193
00:57:33,935 --> 00:57:35,755
People think it's some magical process.
1194
00:57:35,755 --> 00:57:39,115
It's not, you know, they, they
say in English, the phrase
1195
00:57:39,415 --> 00:57:41,035
money doesn't grow on trees.
1196
00:57:41,695 --> 00:57:43,645
Of course it, it does grow on trees.
1197
00:57:44,035 --> 00:57:46,195
It grows actually now in the computer.
1198
00:57:46,255 --> 00:57:46,705
Okay.
1199
00:57:46,945 --> 00:57:48,505
So you type it in the computer.
1200
00:57:49,465 --> 00:57:50,634
How much do we want to create?
1201
00:57:50,634 --> 00:57:54,745
Let's say 200 billion, 20
times the GED of Cyprus Cyprus
1202
00:57:55,345 --> 00:57:57,175
GDP is $10 billion per year.
1203
00:57:57,655 --> 00:57:59,005
So good.
1204
00:57:59,035 --> 00:58:00,475
Uh, economic, uh, flow.
1205
00:58:00,475 --> 00:58:04,675
We would say we need to create
about $200 billion to, to support
1206
00:58:04,675 --> 00:58:07,225
this $10 billion a year output.
1207
00:58:07,255 --> 00:58:07,705
Okay.
1208
00:58:08,665 --> 00:58:14,065
So, um, we, we write it in the
computer ledger 200 billion has
1209
00:58:14,065 --> 00:58:18,384
been created and we send a hundred
billion over to the government.
1210
00:58:18,655 --> 00:58:20,995
So they have a hundred
billion dollars of the money.
1211
00:58:21,625 --> 00:58:22,825
Do they need to tax us.
1212
00:58:23,730 --> 00:58:24,150
Okay.
1213
00:58:24,540 --> 00:58:25,500
The hundred billion.
1214
00:58:26,190 --> 00:58:27,630
Do we give it to the people?
1215
00:58:28,290 --> 00:58:33,060
Uh, because we, you know, we could give
90 billion of that money to the people
1216
00:58:33,330 --> 00:58:35,640
not lend it to them through the banks.
1217
00:58:35,700 --> 00:58:38,580
We could literally just say
you wake up and every Cypriot
1218
00:58:38,580 --> 00:58:41,730
has a share of the $90 billion.
1219
00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:41,970
Yeah.
1220
00:58:42,000 --> 00:58:42,750
Good luck with it.
1221
00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:46,290
And we have, we made $10 billion.
1222
00:58:46,620 --> 00:58:49,110
The government made a hundred
billion dollars and the
1223
00:58:49,110 --> 00:58:50,820
people have money and no debt.
1224
00:58:51,000 --> 00:58:53,130
What do you think would
happen in the Cypress economy?
1225
00:58:53,700 --> 00:58:54,990
It would, boom, wouldn't it?
1226
00:58:55,050 --> 00:58:57,660
Wouldn't it be like the
biggest economic boom ever.
1227
00:58:58,110 --> 00:59:05,550
There wouldn't be any debt so that, and
then imagine that we could print more.
1228
00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:09,840
So next year we put another 200
billion, but we keep it all.
1229
00:59:09,990 --> 00:59:13,800
Or we lend it to our friends
or we give it to our friends,
1230
00:59:14,130 --> 00:59:17,820
but the worst possible thing
is you create the 200 billion.
1231
00:59:19,005 --> 00:59:23,745
And you lend it to them and they have
to give it back to you plus interest.
1232
00:59:24,555 --> 00:59:29,295
If we've created 200 billion and we
lent it out, how are we going to, and
1233
00:59:29,295 --> 00:59:33,495
we're supposed to get back to 120,
where does the extra 20 come from?
1234
00:59:34,395 --> 00:59:35,385
It doesn't exist.
1235
00:59:36,135 --> 00:59:37,335
It's a slave system.
1236
00:59:37,605 --> 00:59:38,805
It's a control trap.
1237
00:59:39,555 --> 00:59:40,995
It was designed as such.
1238
00:59:41,445 --> 00:59:43,455
It's a societal control mechanism.
1239
00:59:43,845 --> 00:59:44,895
It's not a money system.
1240
00:59:45,045 --> 00:59:48,525
It's a, it's a economic slave system.
1241
00:59:49,635 --> 00:59:53,115
So that game is tired and old and
we don't need that game anymore.
1242
00:59:53,565 --> 00:59:57,585
And when you're holding dollars in
euros, you're supporting that system.
1243
00:59:57,975 --> 00:59:58,845
Do you see what I mean?
1244
00:59:59,085 --> 01:00:02,745
So actually I think people should
think about, if what I'm saying
1245
01:00:02,745 --> 01:00:06,315
is accurate, how are we sub why
are we supporting that system?
1246
01:00:06,345 --> 01:00:09,405
Why are we handing that forward into
our children, into this perpetual
1247
01:00:09,405 --> 01:00:11,415
debt trap that can never be bought
1248
01:00:12,345 --> 01:00:13,355
support the system?
1249
01:00:13,355 --> 01:00:18,725
It's the way we grew up the way
some information was embedded
1250
01:00:18,725 --> 01:00:23,435
into our heads on how money and
all that financial system works.
1251
01:00:23,885 --> 01:00:27,455
But now there are no excuses because
you have all the information.
1252
01:00:27,755 --> 01:00:31,715
And the only thing
you're left is action.
1253
01:00:32,135 --> 01:00:32,525
That's it?
1254
01:00:32,885 --> 01:00:37,445
Because if we just don't do anything,
we're supporting that existing system.
1255
01:00:37,895 --> 01:00:40,475
And if we take actions, we
might make some mistakes.
1256
01:00:40,535 --> 01:00:42,125
We might have some losses.
1257
01:00:42,875 --> 01:00:46,415
We might make some big gains
everything's possible, but
1258
01:00:46,415 --> 01:00:50,045
at least we're supporting the
creation of a different model.
1259
01:00:50,924 --> 01:00:51,765
For the world.
1260
01:00:51,915 --> 01:00:55,725
And I think we have to look if we
I've decided that I'm putting my
1261
01:00:55,725 --> 01:01:00,285
time into that model, our entire
community of TFC, isn't trying to
1262
01:01:00,285 --> 01:01:01,845
compete with the Euro or the dollar.
1263
01:01:01,845 --> 01:01:06,705
It's not a money it's a token used in
a certain context, but the idea of it
1264
01:01:06,915 --> 01:01:11,384
having a limited supply, distributing
it to the people, you know, um,
1265
01:01:11,654 --> 01:01:16,665
letting it to become used more and
more to, um, uh, for different things
1266
01:01:16,665 --> 01:01:21,225
inside the, the app and sharing that
money with people is showing people
1267
01:01:21,254 --> 01:01:25,765
the idea that the way, the way how
to do it, I will still make money.
1268
01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:28,890
Yeah.
1269
01:01:29,310 --> 01:01:30,360
With your own coin.
1270
01:01:30,780 --> 01:01:31,260
Yes.
1271
01:01:31,470 --> 01:01:32,370
And she accepts it.
1272
01:01:32,950 --> 01:01:33,510
Yes.
1273
01:01:34,190 --> 01:01:40,040
Not only that, um, people, uh,
some people will own some people
1274
01:01:40,040 --> 01:01:43,400
that are working with me, certain
consultants and people will only
1275
01:01:43,430 --> 01:01:45,950
allow, they only want me to pay in TFC.
1276
01:01:45,950 --> 01:01:48,140
They don't want to
receive different thing.
1277
01:01:48,140 --> 01:01:52,790
Cause they, they, uh, they think
it's going to be, um, their, their
1278
01:01:52,790 --> 01:01:56,300
personal opinion is they want it
because they think it has a lot
1279
01:01:56,300 --> 01:01:59,060
of potential to grow and yeah.
1280
01:01:59,320 --> 01:02:00,230
And you can balance your
1281
01:02:00,230 --> 01:02:00,920
transactions.
1282
01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:02,000
I mean, you don't have to.
1283
01:02:02,070 --> 01:02:08,540
The thing is a lot of people think
of it as gambling and I don't
1284
01:02:08,540 --> 01:02:10,130
know, correct me if I'm wrong.
1285
01:02:10,160 --> 01:02:12,380
I would have said I
wouldn't suggest go and.
1286
01:02:12,915 --> 01:02:17,505
Bet your money on crypto,
but just instead of saving in
1287
01:02:17,505 --> 01:02:19,635
the bank, putting on crypto.
1288
01:02:20,075 --> 01:02:20,495
Yeah.
1289
01:02:20,765 --> 01:02:24,545
And this is true because then, you
know, uh, you're less likely to
1290
01:02:24,545 --> 01:02:28,295
lose money in Bitcoin, according
to some people's thinking than
1291
01:02:28,295 --> 01:02:29,495
you are to leave it in a bank.
1292
01:02:29,915 --> 01:02:33,485
Uh, even if you're not making money
from Bitcoin to going up, it might be
1293
01:02:33,485 --> 01:02:38,405
a better place because what if, what
if you have to, um, God forbid you're
1294
01:02:38,405 --> 01:02:41,975
in a country where you have to leave
the country because it has a problem
1295
01:02:41,975 --> 01:02:46,175
or financial crisis or a war, and you
have to leave the country with your
1296
01:02:46,175 --> 01:02:47,615
family, moved to another country.
1297
01:02:48,035 --> 01:02:50,765
And the banking system has
collapsed or they've put capital
1298
01:02:50,765 --> 01:02:54,575
controls and you can't get your
money out or you lose your money.
1299
01:02:54,785 --> 01:02:55,265
Do you see?
1300
01:02:55,385 --> 01:02:55,565
Yeah.
1301
01:02:55,595 --> 01:02:57,965
But with Bitcoin, your money
goes with you every year
1302
01:02:58,295 --> 01:03:00,245
it's happened in 2013, Steve,
1303
01:03:00,575 --> 01:03:01,055
it did.
1304
01:03:01,625 --> 01:03:06,125
People woke up in, they didn't
have any money in the bank because.
1305
01:03:06,525 --> 01:03:08,835
The system decided that your money will
1306
01:03:08,835 --> 01:03:09,405
banish.
1307
01:03:09,495 --> 01:03:10,425
They took the money.
1308
01:03:10,425 --> 01:03:14,175
And that was, that should have
shocked everybody into crypto.
1309
01:03:14,655 --> 01:03:19,335
And, you know, even back then, if
on the day, let's say somebody had
1310
01:03:19,335 --> 01:03:21,765
their life savings and there were
some people that lost their life
1311
01:03:21,765 --> 01:03:26,265
savings at that year in Cyprus, say
it, a million euros saved in the bank.
1312
01:03:26,835 --> 01:03:32,805
If you had taken I think, 6,000 euros
and put it in Bitcoin the day before
1313
01:03:32,805 --> 01:03:36,135
they stole the money, you had all
your money back plus gain already.
1314
01:03:36,765 --> 01:03:42,225
So actually what's happening is the
system is changing in some ways.
1315
01:03:42,225 --> 01:03:43,515
I don't even think we could stop it.
1316
01:03:43,515 --> 01:03:47,405
If we tried this change is happening,
you know, it seems to be like,
1317
01:03:47,435 --> 01:03:49,595
have its own inertia, this change.
1318
01:03:50,135 --> 01:03:53,975
And so we just have to be aware of
it, see if we can benefit from it
1319
01:03:54,005 --> 01:03:55,505
and see if we should support it.
1320
01:03:55,835 --> 01:03:59,495
You know, there are resisted some
people maybe they're correct or
1321
01:03:59,495 --> 01:04:05,075
resisted, but I support it and I take
a lot of risk on it because I think.
1322
01:04:05,549 --> 01:04:10,290
The reward is high and I
don't want, I refuse to leave
1323
01:04:10,290 --> 01:04:11,790
my kids in the same system.
1324
01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:17,640
So I'm betting on new systems because
I, I simply refuse that this same
1325
01:04:17,670 --> 01:04:22,650
old tired system governs the way my
children have to conduct their lives.
1326
01:04:23,370 --> 01:04:23,430
Yeah.
1327
01:04:23,690 --> 01:04:28,520
Andrea, I don't know if that was
a podcast or a consulting session
1328
01:04:28,520 --> 01:04:31,370
for Bitcoin by Steve either way.
1329
01:04:31,370 --> 01:04:34,040
Steve, thanks a lot for
joining us on net cost.
1330
01:04:34,220 --> 01:04:34,520
Sure.
1331
01:04:34,610 --> 01:04:38,960
I'm going to make sure that these
talks will be promoted a lot.
1332
01:04:39,230 --> 01:04:39,470
Thanks
1333
01:04:39,470 --> 01:04:39,950
