The cryptocurrency market is currently sitting in a very unique position in the economy. On one side we have an asset class that appears incredibly undervalued as governments and central banks openly tell us that they're accumulating it... and on the other side, we have these same people telling us that they're expecting Bitcoin to go to a million dollars plus per coin. Can anyone figure out why even crypto investors arent paying attention? --------------------------------------------------------------------------- My Complete Real Estate investing Guide: https://mybook.to/realestatetmi ------------------------------------------ Protect Your Crypto And Money With A Ledger Nano: https://shop.ledger.com/?r=8af3ed38d3b7 ------------------------------------------- My Travel Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@alwaysonvacationnow/videos -------------- ## Транскрипт ### Segment 1 (00:00 - 05:00) [] Hello everybody. Welcome back to the channel. Welcome back for another investment video. I don't know. I always forget what I'm supposed to be saying most of the time. Uh hope you're all doing well and that you're all having an absolutely incredible day. For those of you looking to become real estate investors, I wrote a book on real estate investing, there's a link to it, to the book in the description below the video. Uh, at the moment, things are looking pretty okay within the cryptocurrency market. We have had expectations for a while now as a community, if you will, uh that prices are expected to begin to go uh much higher from where they currently are right now. The last few days have kind of been a wave of news in that direction. a number of companies are beginning to uh buy more cryptocurrencies and we're also beginning to hear about it as well. Uh there's also the new price predictions that are coming out if you've missed any of them. The the long and short of it is millionoll Bitcoin in under five years. That's kind of like the general summary for a lot of it. So, in extremely popular news today, which I also don't believe, and I'm going to explain why, and that's my prerogative. Uh, in gigantic news today, Coinbase has announced that they have purchased more Bitcoin over the course of the last several years. There are very large entities within the space who have not been mentioned for whatever reason. They just haven't been in the news lately. Coinbase, Binance, I think Kraken as well, I want to say Kraken, Tether, and oh gosh, there's like two other Anyway, two other major companies within the space uh quarterly, they tend to accumulate Bitcoin. Coinbase made it into the news years ago uh very oddly because people were asking Coinbase, "How much Bitcoin do you have? " For those of you who are unaware, I think Coinbase launched in 2011 or 2012. Bitcoin was like $14. 5 real number. Uh and I think Coinbase announced that they only had what was it like? They said like, "Yeah, we only have a thousand Bitcoin or we only have like $2 million worth of Bitcoin. " And I was like, "What? You got into this space years ago when Bitcoin was worth pennies and you and for those of you who don't know as well, Coinbase was an a Bitcoin only exchange? Bitcoin only. You expect me to believe that you launched this hundred million dollar company and you only had like three Bitcoin? I refuse to that's a personal thing. I I I refuse to believe that. It says for Coinbase, a Bitcoin treasury position carries particular strategic logic as it already serves as custodian for a significant portion of institutional Bitcoin holdings within the United States, including acting as custodian for several spot Bitcoin exchange traded funds approved in January 2024. Yeah, that also made headline news when we found out that of all the companies on the planet, Coinbase became the holder of Bitcoin for Black Rockck and people were like, "Oh, you guys are fancy fancy. " Coinbase went public on the NASDAQ in April 2021 through a direct listing, making it one of the first major crypto native companies to list on a US exchange. The share price has historically moved in closer correlation with Bitcoin's price, meaning a corporate Bitcoin treasury further amplifies their relationship both on the upside and the downside. There's like a revenue sharing agreement. Sure, why not? It says we saw continued strength in native unit inflows. The growth was offset by prices and rates. Stable coin revenue was $35 million US. Average Circle Coin held in ### Segment 2 (05:00 - 10:00) [5:00] Coinbase product reached a new all-time high of $19 billion. A quick reminder here, our Circle Coin contract auto renews every 3 years in perpetuity. It cannot be terminated cuz Coinbase created Circle Coin, so why would it be? I also want to flag a report change we made in the first corner. We reclassified $18 million of corporate stable coin revenue to other revenue. That change reflects our treatment of cash and USDC as completely fungeable within our corporate operations. And this is consistent with our decision earlier this year to report payment stable coins as cash and cash equivalents on our balance sheet. We've recast historical periods for comparability. Blockchain rewards were 101 million US down on price and protocol reward rates. Fantastic. So, the actual number I had to look around. I don't know why it was so difficult to actually find. Apparently, Coinbase purchased 16,492 Bitcoin for $88 million US in quarter 1 of this year. Uh, okay. Wow. Awesome. Amazing. So, apparently, oh, no, no, never mind. Never mind. Never mind. So, Coinbase has 88 million Bitcoin for themselves. And then I looked over here and saw how much they have like in treasury holdings, but I assume that that's the act I assumption that that's the number that they're actually holding for other corporations and people within the space. So, uh, who knows exactly how much Bitcoin Coinbase has? I've assumed for a while that they have around 200, 300, 400,000 Bitcoin. There's no way on this earth that you got into Bitcoin in 2011, 2012 and you didn't instantaneously buy a listen that you didn't buy a million dollar worth of Bitcoin back then, which would have given you 200,000 Bitcoin. We even had news years ago, and I assume the number is also a lot higher, uh, from the Winkls twins. Don't ever forget this. The Winklevoss twins said years ago, I mean like 2013, 2014, that they held 200,000 Bitcoin, which tells me they probably have around half a million. But I think for uh what's the word? I don't know. I have a feeling these companies are trying to like play koi and act like they don't have a huge percentage of the market. You don't have Black Rockck and Fidelity get into the space and you go, "Let's buy one more Bitcoin. " No, I assume they have huge gargantuan positions within this market, which would make sense because of how low the price was when they all got in. So, that's the popular Coinbase news. I don't remember if we also went over this one either. uh news about Tether. So, we used to this was since we're more corporate now. This used to be like the big news a while ago. Whenever a company, Kraken, Binance, Tether, Coinbase announced a purchase of Bitcoin that made major news, but it tends to pale in comparison uh to the what's the name? What do you call it? It tends to pale in comparison to the news of a company buying $1. 1 billion worth of Bitcoin. It doesn't have the same shine. So, for some reason, this coin kind of just gets swept to the side. And I don't really know why. Uh Tether apparently purchased more Bitcoin and they added roughly $70 million worth of Bitcoin to their reserve wallet on Wednesday. Blockchain data from Arkham Intelligence recorded that 951 Bitcoin moved from Bitconnect bit Bitfinex. There we go. To a wallet labeled the wallet is labeled Tether BTC Reserve right on the nose. That address was previously confirmed by the CEO Pao Ardono as the destination for the company's Bitcoin purchases. Tether is now currently holding 97,141 Bitcoin. At current prices, that ### Segment 3 (10:00 - 15:00) [10:00] positions at around 7 something billion dollars. This is according to the website Bitcoin Treasuries. Tether would rank as the second largest corporate Bitcoin holder globally if they were listed publicly, sitting right behind Micro Strategy. Tether began buying Bitcoin automatically. This is years ago. They said, "We are going to make sure that we buy Bitcoin every single quarter from the amount of money that the company has been making. " Uh that year, the company introduced a policy to allocate up to 15% of their realized operating profits into Bitcoin. The purchases are funded through earnings from their stable coin business, not through external capital raises. Because if you don't know, Tether's wealthy, Tether is not rich. Tether owns tons of gold, tons of US Treasury bills, I assume, a gargantuan amount of US bonds, and we've never heard it. But when you're worth billions and billions and billions and billions, you also have a very large uh what's the word? Real estate portfolio. So I assume Tether does as well. Yeah, we I mean I guess it's not as frequent as Micro Strategy or Metanet or uh Bitmine, what have you, but no, they're always buying as well. This is what I'm saying. If we had all the numbers combined and we could actually see what they were because there's also hundreds of companies who are doing these same amounts of purchases. Tons of companies are also purchasing on any given month 18 million 25 million $35 million worth of Bitcoin. So, I think if we had the true numbers of how insane this was actually getting, I think more retail investors would be in the space trying to buy whatever they possibly could out of fear uh that there wouldn't be anything left for them to buy. That's the Tether and Coinbase news. We also do not get news about the Gemini twins buying or their company Gemini uh purchasing either. So, makes the mind wonder exactly how little Bitcoin there is left up for grabs. Okie dokie. Let's move on. Also, when Well, yeah, I guess that of course. Well, yeah. I mean, we could have kind of all guessed that the numbers are rolling in as to you've seen it as to how well the cryptocurrency space is going to be doing in the next couple of years. This year, we are expecting the Clarity Act to go through and I as far as we understand that is meant to be like the mega gigantic cherry on top of everything. I believe that the Clarity Act is meant to be the last thing that they're trying to pass for clarity wink within the cryptocurrency space. So on top of this comes the news of realworld assets tokenization and stable coins on top of all of the chains that we know and love. Standard Chartered has projected that realworld assets represented onchain could reach around two trillion US dollars by 2028. The bank is expecting tokenized real world assets to scale fast over the coming years. Tokenization could lower barriers to entry for retail investors. I know it might not be what you might say the most exciting news. This kind of news I think I wish more crypto channels gave news like this as opposed to just like price go up, price go down, you should be scared, you should be blah blah like that kind of thing cuz this is what we actually need. Crypto would survive. However, it would do exceptionally better if we have trillions of dollars roaming through this market. With a market cap already in the trillions for the combined market, the next step, according to the wealthiest people, has to do with the idea of money flowing into our market and kind of remaining there. If you have a company and you tell other companies, I will hold your ### Segment 4 (15:00 - 20:00) [15:00] assets for you, you become quite wealthy. Black Rockck, we are holding 14 trillion in assets under management. If we start seeing these chains like this is what also makes um Ethereum more attractive to investors. If you haven't been here over the last few years, it's the idea of stable coins being on top of it. $22 billion worth of US dollar stable coin value is sitting on that chain. That shows trust. That shows strength. That shows like that money is okay with being there. If you start announcing there are now 55 other chains on top of Ethereum and the total money in those chains is also billions of dollars that gets the thumbs up from these very large companies and corporations. We're already seeing tokenization beginning to take shape. If you haven't seen Black Rockck has a an enormous it's a um it's a token is a called I think Black Rockck tokenized fund. I forgot what the exact name of it is. JP Morgan's launching them. We've been getting news since around February. This company's launching their tokenized fund on Ethereum. This company's using Polygon. That company's using Salana. This what I've been saying like we're getting names now and it's really good. The idea of there being trillions of dollars, of assets, of cars, of homes, of bonds, real estate, everything onchain that changes the idea of what our market even is. It becomes far more robust. The normal number that we have heard is by 2030 they're expecting 5 to10 trillion dollar in digitized tokenized assets being on these chains. That's how you get to a 304 $50,000 ether for those who didn't know. Standard chartered. The bank is expecting tokenized realworld assets to scale fast over the coming years. This is driven by institutional adoption, better infrastructure, and stronger demand for more efficient capital markets. A recent analysis by Binance argues that tokenized tokenization marks a transition point for the crypto industry. Yes, the exchange says tokenized assets improve capital efficiency by allowing them to be used as collateral access trading, lending, and decentralized finance platforms at some point in the very near future. This isn't decades away. You are going to be able to buy fractionalized real estate on chain. If at any point while you're holding this money and that real estate starts going up quickly in value, you're going to be able to literally use those tokens, that tokenized real estate, you're going to be able to lock it into DeFi products that will also then use that money as collateral and will begin to pay you passive income from it. We are entering a brand new saga of wealth and finance. When you hear me say like even people in crypto don't get it and I know some of you do. We've been here for a while. I said that before. I know a good three out of 10 of you. You got it. But to other people who aren't realizing what's happening. It's a literal what's the word? It's an asset that benefits itself that benefits other assets that benefits other assets. Ethereum, you'll be able to stake XRP. Bitcoin. You'll be able to stake that that other coin you get, the other staked the Flare coin, the Ether you get, you'll be able to automatically push that into tokenized assets, which will increase the amount of assets that you have in your portfolio automatically. You'll be able to set up smart contracts or Coinbase will have a button that you click. The money that you got passively, you'll be able to push into tokenized assets. The tokenized real estate and other bonds and things that you're buying will then start to produce income daily. Not monthly, not quarterly, daily. Because that's that that's the promise of blockchain. You'll be able to do it every 24 hours. Every 24 hours, you'll be able to make a decision. Do I want to use this money to go on vacation with because I have a whole bunch of extra money or do I want to use that money to buy up more assets? You're going to continuously perpetually ### Segment 5 (20:00 - 25:00) [20:00] be able to create new assets from thin air that you will be able to automatically purchase. And do you know how you do this? By having assets already. People who sit on the sidelines always end up waiting. You know, there's so many investors who, and I mean just by logic's sake, we're logically expecting Apple to go up over the course of the next 10. Apple stock, it's Apple, we're expecting Microsoft to do well, Johnson and Johnson will probably do well. I dare even throw in Nvidia. The world's demand for chips right now and microprocessing units is staggering. And it's as long as we live in a digitized world, it's probably not going to end anytime soon. The dividends from these stocks and these companies, people are buying them in hordes to be able to get large amounts of dividends that they then roll over into that same exact stock. At some point, you own millions of that stock, and you go, "Cool, I'm going to use the dividends from that to start buying up this other company. " and it keeps rolling in this direction. I I sometimes hesitate to say the cryptocurrency market, the coins that we know are being used and loved and accumulated by these companies and these governments who are telling us that they're buying them. They seem incredibly undervalued. There are tons of in three out of 10 of you who are going to buy these assets and the prices are going to go up over the next five to 10 years. You're going to stake these coins and make passive income and you're going to be able to live your best life. The other seven out of 10 will sit there annoyed and you're going to have questions for yourself. Why didn't I buy? Why wasn't I paying attention? Why am I not invested? How did I not get into this? It happens every single cycle by itself every single time. If we're talking about, if you missed the last couple of videos, if we're talking about in the next three and a half, four years, Bitcoin doing a 12 to 13x in price, Ethereum doing a 25x in price, like it's just I wonder sometimes what people think, what they what's going through their heads. I follow these other um anyway, it doesn't matter. Tokenization, it said, could lower barriers to entry for retail investors. This is possible by enabling fractional ownership of assets such as private credit funds, government securities, and real estate linked instruments. However, access will depend heavily on regulatory frameworks and platform development, which remain uneven across jurisdictions. I think this is why, if you hear me out here, I think the US knows there's a lot of money to be made and this is why you see this like political frenzy that's currently going on. If you haven't seen discussions about the Clarity Act and all these other things, they know what's going on. They know how much money there is to be made for the retail side and also for the companies and the organizations and the people in Congress who are all getting richer every single day as well. The promise of tokenization usually rests on the shoulders of that everyday normal people will be able to invest easier. Everyday normal people can already invest quite easy. You can buy $5 worth of Bitcoin on Coinbase. You can buy fractionalized stocks already on Robin Hood and many other places, but for whatever reason, hundreds of millions of billions of people do not invest. Tokenization is going to lower the barriers for people who already have assets and who have money. If your assets are producing other assets, you'll be able to move that into the tokenization world. You'll be able to buy all these things directly on chain through an app, through a website. They're going to pay you daily. You'll be able to tell the smart contract, "Anything I make daily, swap that into this other contract continuously making me money. " You don't understand what it means to be able to have an asset pay you daily that you can. It accelerates your investing potential 300fold by being able to take that. You no ### Segment 6 (25:00 - 29:00) [25:00] longer have to wait until spring, summer, or winter to get your dividend payouts. You can roll that money immediately into something else. Anyway, uh there has been a lot of tokenization news. I haven't brought it here just because I think everyone kind of understands the point and you understand how intense I am when it comes to tokenization, accumulating assets. The assets you have now will pay you off in the future. They will make you money. The stuff in the crypto space is going to make you passive income that is paying you out on a daily basis. Like there are tons of coins now I if you have um like a self-custody wallet that like will stake like stake the coins for you. You can do daily payouts like you can hit the button like pay me out now. That's like part of the cryptocurrency space already. So, I still hope and wish every 24 hours that um I'll wake up and I'll hear uh that Bitcoin is at 218,000. Why? Uh because around 700 million people figured out what was going on. they decided to buy some Satoshi's for themselves so that when Bitcoin goes up to $13 million a coin that these people also have uh some type of wealth and money that they can also lean on and spend and and stake. Um as my dreams do not become realities, uh I can only hope that I'm reaching some of you out there who are managing to understand what's going on. Uh because if Bitcoin does go to a million dollars per coin, you are going to wish that you had some Bitcoin. If Ethereum becomes the number one most used chain for tokenization and it goes to $65,000, you are going to wish that you had some Ether to stake so that you could make passive income. And let's be completely honest here. You know, a lot of times I', you've heard me say it. I've mentioned before when it comes to like staking these coins, I have a very grandiose idea of being able to like stake and make passive income to be like, "Yeah, you know, today I made enough money that I can go on vacation. Let's back it up. " If you staked your coins and you made enough every month, not even daily, if by the end of the month the cumulative total of your passive income made you $900, made you $1,400. You know how much that would help you? Do I I always see people taking extremely expensive uh vacations and I don't understand why. You know what $1,400 does? If you find a cheap flight, a cheap train, a bus somewhere, how many days that gets you in like a good hotel? You got a good five, six, seven days right there. Imagine being able to do that every single month because you want to because of the assets that you bought three, four, five years before just paying your way through life. That's literally how rich people currently live and that's why they're buying all the crypto right now. Well, everyone, I think that's going to do it for this video. Hope you're all doing well. Hope you're all remembering to invest. Investing is a the cornerstone of what I I love to do. I I seriously can't get enough of it. The idea of being able to put a dollar into something and in the future that dollar becomes $15. I will use the word intoxicating. It truly truly is. Thank you all, every single one of you once again for watching, listening, liking, commenting on the video, and supporting the channel. And I will most certainly be talking to you all soon. See
