Behind the Mic
Initial Thoughts and Atmosphere
Take a walk with the full moon go button and zip top. It's all kicking off soon. Best thing with a quick rough. I don't know about your goons down there. Everything lift up. Whether it's draw, win or lose, none of my friends never give up. Let's do it.
Excitement and Social Engagement
Oh, my God. It feels so good to be back with a beautiful Italian man and how many people? 41 other people in this room. Can we get some retweets in this face real quick? Nagato is already posting his Leo underbite. Look in the comments. Gifs. Can we get some gifts in the comments? I think we should do that every time, Nagato, right? Like, just get the sense of how people are feeling with, like, a bunch of gift spam guys. Go in the comments after you retweet the space and just fire off some gifts.
Personal Connections and Humor
How you doing, king? My g, I always post the same one. I love it. Yeah. Cause you're always fucking ramped up, dude. Yeah, absolutely. How can I not be? Ram thought, brother. A little relax and lil baby. How you not gonna get fired up on that shit? Yeah, I love it. The intro is really nice. How did you spot that song, brother? Like, actually, like, I've never heard about it before. How did you spot it?
Music Discovery and Streaming Preferences
I think it was on Skrillex's album, bro. Okay, I don't listen to Skrillex. Sorry. But it was the one from last year, quest for fire. No, it wasn't on that album. I don't know how. It probably just popped up on my Spotify, bro. Spotify algorithm is elite. Are you an apple music or Spotify person? Oh, no. Spotify. I love it. Bro, those playlists are crazy.
Algorithm and Personal Experiences in Music
The algorithmic playlist, they just. They know what you like. Yeah, yeah. So it probably just popped up one of them shits. See a lot of familiar faces in the crowd today. Nick B. Bull Shark. Frankie. I see Swift. Tiago. See a lot of y'all. Let's fucking go. Yeah, we got a nice crew here today, Azul. See you down there, brother.
Current Location and Experiences
Okay. So where we at, dude? Where the fuck are we? Bitcoin. No. First of all, where are you, brother? I'm in the desert. I should probably post that. That little video right in the comments? Yeah, suppose the video, brother. I'm gonna show you guys where I'm at. You can. If you can find me, then I'll. I'll buy you a bitcoin.
Incentives and Location Challenges
If you can come find me. If you show up at my door during this space, I'll buy you a bitcoin. It's like, aurora location. Like auto movie location. Yeah, I don't. I'm not getting that, but I'll go with it. I'm gonna post it in the comments. You guys will tell me. The video is uploading right now. It might take a second because, like, 30 seconds long, but.
Wi-Fi and Reliability
How's the Wi-Fi there? It's excellent. Let's fucking. You let me know if I'm cutting in at all. But I held out of space yesterday for an hour from here, and it was totally fine. No, for now, it's fine. Yeah. So I'm in the desert in Arizona, y'all, and I got this little, like, hilltop kind of. I guess it's like a cabin, but it's, like, you know, a nice size cabin.
Descriptive Features of the Cabin
It's all, like, wood on the inside. It's got, like, a little kind of built in attic area where there's another bed, a second bedroom, and it has incredible views of just, like, all these red rocks out here. And, yeah, I just booked it for the weekend just to get away and kind of do a bunch of work and meditate and go for some hikes and. Yeah, it's pretty lit, dude.
Current Lifestyle and Travel Updates
You're not home either. You're traveling. You're living that Wi-Fi money lifestyle. Yeah. You're still in Dubai? Oh, yeah. Not traveling, but, yeah. I mean, Dubai at the moment. I will go back to Italy on Monday. So, guys, I will take a plane on Monday.
Speculative Market Behaviors
So if you want to short the market, that's probably, like, a smart thing to do, because every time I jump on a plane, the market basically collapses. So if you want a shirt. Yeah, do it tight. Stop loss. Yeah, let's fucking go. But, yeah, we'll go back to Italy and spend, like, probably one month there. Let's see if it's a failed society or maybe it's a bit better than when I left.
Market Sentiment and Personal Experiences
I have no idea. I would find it out. Dude, we only got two gifts in the comments. That's fucking crazy. Shout out bull shark and Dre. But how many retweets? Five, including yours. No. Buenos. We got to figure this out, bro. We got to incentive. Maybe we have to incentivize these people because they all just take us for granted, I think.
Potential Actions and Cultural Contributions
What if we just stopped doing Wi-Fi money? You know what I mean? What if we just stopped? We do this for free, dude. We do it for the culture. Not even a retweet's worth. I mean, that's insane. Yeah. Not even a. Like, a retweet a little gift in the, like, gif in the comment.
Community Engagement and Support
Like a gif in the comments, dude. I get. Okay, maybe you don't want to retweet. You feel a little greedy now on a sad someone. Want to keep the feet clean so they won't. Don't want to retweet. I get it. But a gif in the comments, bro. Gif in the comments, bro. That stingy shit.
Emotional Dynamics and Community Support
That's honestly stingy as fuck. Nagato is out here every day, dude. You guys don't even understand. He calls me almost every day, like, in tears, essentially. Like, he has. He has everything he owns in the crypto market and he does not know how to handle volatility.
Crisis Management and Supportive Actions
So anytime we go up, like, dollar 500 or down dollar 500 in bitcoin, I get a call from Nagato, like, freaking out. And then he has to, like, go to chat GPT and figure out how to create a post to be like, get all Zen again and, like, try to say, it's okay, it's going to plan, but this guy's out of control. So, like, all he's asking, dude, is, you know, is for you to just post a gif in the comments about how you feel right now.
Duality in Lives and Community Understanding
Because this man is like, he's living a dual. A duality. He's living two lives. There's the one that you guys see here and on the feed, and then there's the one that I have to deal with. So just put some gifts in there so that he can, like, know that he's not alone. No, actually, I live three lives at night. I'm also Batman.
Transition to Serious Discussion
That's all you get. You got a little thing. Because I wasn't. Yeah, it's fine. It's fine. So what do you want to talk about now, brother? I want to talk about cryptocurrency. It's a new industry, otherwise known as web three or digital assets. Bytecoin, I think. One of the big ones. Have you heard of it?
Price Tracking and Market Observations
Bitcoin. Bitcoin, yeah. Oh, bitcoin. Yeah. It's currently 60,666.88 USD us dollars. Oh. The currency that's used to buy drugs on the deep web. Also for child trafficking and for crime. Yeah, that's all it's good for. So, okay, let's start, like, let's start talking about something serious.
Current Market Climate and Feelings
Okay. How do you feel after the big crash and the big bomb? Hold on. Thumbs up for something serious. Thumbs. Thumbs down. Actually, thumbs up for something fun. Thumbs down for something serious. Thumbs up for something fun. Thumbs down for something serious. Oh, we got Ponky in the fucking building.
Community Involvement and Thumbs Feedback
Oh, yeah, we got punky. Let's fucking go. Shout out honky elements on y'all. You guys need to follow the Ponky main account. It's okay. We got thumbs down. We got thumbs, yeah. Okay. People want something serious, I guess. God. Okay, let's fucking go, then.
Segmentation of Current Events
Okay, pocky, well, I'm gonna. I'm gonna invite you on stage. Ponky, you don't have to talk if you don't want, because we like to keep things anonymous around here, but feel free to come up and chill. We're going to be talking about Ponky a little bit later in this space, but, yeah, Nagato. We're at 60,700.
Reflections on Market Movements
So this has been a crazy week, brother. The candle is insane. If you look on the weekly, we had a week. We opened the week at 58, and we pulled down to 49. And now the week is actually green. We are plus almost four and a half percent this week right now. How are you feeling, dude? How are you feeling?
Personal Reactions to Recent Instability
I'm really scared. I don't know what to do. I'm lost. And I almost panic sold everything. No jokes aside. Yeah, I feel the same. I was feeling last week. Basically, we are back at the same levels. There has been this big shakeout to the downside, we can talk about what caused it, but basically it was just general fear in the market because basically the bank of Japan, they decided to start raising rates.
Market Dynamics and External Influences
That decision collapsed the Japanese stock market. And then there was a domino effect, basically, like, everywhere in the world. And, of course, like, the crypto market is, like, a risk on market, of course. And when there is, like, fear everywhere else, a small market like the crypto market is also influenced, influenced by volatility and everything.
Observations on General Market Downturns
So the Japanese market went down. The US equities were fucking, like, got fucking annihilated that day. So, of course, like, crypto went down, and there was, like, basically panic selling all over the market. Like, every single coin went down, like, crazy amounts. Even like, bitcoin, which is the biggest one, and usually the less volatile one, went down.
Recovery and Future Outlooks
Like, this week went down, like, more than 20%. And then we bounced back. So, I mean, there is nothing to say, honestly. Like, of course, I didn't expect this kind of dump to happen, but probably nobody in the crypto space expected this kind of huge volatility in just that short period of time. But sometimes shit happens on a global scale and there are events that you cannot really predict.
Navigating through Crises
But yeah, it is what it is. Like, we just. We are still here. We survived the crash. It was actually a great opportunity to increase your bags. And we are back at the same levels that were in which were last week. So, I mean, not much to say. Despite, like, what happened, we are still again at the same levels and as bullish as ever, you know?
Exploring Further Conversations
What do you want to say, Greg? You have something else to add about this? What makes you think I have something to add to that? I don't know. I mean. Okay, well, I'll try. I'll make something up. I agree with everything you said, dude. I'm actually scrolling the chart now.
Analyzing Bitcoin's Historical Performance
I'm trying to find the last time bitcoin had as good of a day as it did on Thursday as part of the recovery. So the crack, the. You know, the big crash was on Monday. That was when the wick happened. And then on Thursday is when we had the big move back up. Back over sixty k.
Examining Price Fluctuations
And we had a 12% increase in one day in bitcoin. And I'm scrolling back right now, day by day. I'm in the beginning of 2013, bro. Sorry. 2023. I'm already back, like, over a year and a half, and we. This is still the best day. I have not found a day.
Deadlines in Tracing Historical Data
I'm going to keep scrolling. That one's close, but damn, I'm in. I'm in early 2022. Now. This is the best day since February 28. 2022 was on Thursday in that recovery. That's pretty cool. So, yeah, I mean, like you said, it's this type of market where if you just didn't log on for a week, you'd have no idea what fucking happened.
The Challenge of Market Awareness
But in that same time, if you were here and you're like us and you're, you know, watching the charts and you're on Twitter all day or whatever it is, it was a massive roller coaster. So again, we talk about this every fucking week, guys, but this is a game of emotional management and you and self-awareness.
Personal Investment Strategies
And you have to understand what's the best way for you personally to navigate these markets. It's the difference between people who day trade and do it. You know, weekly trades, monthly, like these longer-term swing trades, or they just buy and hold. Like, that's a cousin of what I'm saying is, like, understanding the way that, you know, how much time do you want to spend looking at this?
Balancing Investment Approaches
How much emotion do you want to dedicate to this? Is it worth it? Like, for me and Nagato and for many of you, we're trying to build brands in crypto, so it's important that we stay up to date. It's important that we're creating content and talking to other people in the space and reading articles, et cetera.
Personal Strategies for Managing Stress and Investments
Some of you, that may not be necessary, right? You may just want to come on Saturdays and check in and wi-fi money, but you don't need to be, like, watching the price like a hawk, you know? Like my mom, for example, she holds a decent amount of crypto. Cause I've just been, like, hounding her over the years, and she checks it, like, every day.
Observations on Market Monitoring
And I don't know why she does. Now, granted, she's good about it. She doesn't, like, hit me up, like, freaking out or anything, but, like, because she knows how to manage. She knows how she works. She knows how she ticks. She doesn't. She's not trying to build a brand in crypto, but she also says, you know, I can handle it.
Stress Management and Market Awareness
I'm going to watch what's going on. I'm. I'm a number. She's a really big numbers person and likes to, you know, get the feel of kind of where things are moving, and that works for her. So, like, if you're feeling like your stress is up, like, dude, that's literally taking days off your life, right.
Long-term Well-being and Investment Mindset
It's. It's literally creating blockages for you in other areas of your life that you may be trying to accelerate and succeed. And you have to understand that, like, you could have just not been online this week and have no idea that the world almost melted, quote unquote, right. Especially in crypto here.
Recent Market Dynamics and Recovery
When we. We went down to fucking 49, we haven't been in the forties since, let's see, since February 14, since Valentine's day, we had not been in the forties. And if you just didn't look, we're back at 60 already. So, that's the way things go. And. And it works in our favor a lot of the times, too.
Market Speculation and Strategies
and it'll. That's why it's hard to catch the top, too. Right. And that's why we need to be, like, scaling out on the way up the same way that we DCA on the way in. Because when we get close to the top, this shit's going to fly, and then it's going to retrace just as quickly.
Market Dynamics and Risk Management
The same way that we just dropped a. The bottom dropped out. Right, Nagato. And then we just bounced back. So we have to have a plan both ways. Yeah, absolutely. And I want to add something like, you see, like how the market basically melted in a few fucking candles.
Navigating Market Trends
So guys, like, make sure to take profit when it's time because the same thing will happen after we reach the top and everything. Like, you already have, like, a lot of time to decide what to do. Like, you already have to have a plan in place because those same things will happen of the same magnitude and everything.
Future Market Predictions and Preparation
And I think this recent pen selloff, which means like a sell off across all markets, was just basically anticipation of what's going to happen in the future. Because I don't think that the markets are going to keep going higher forever. At some point, we'll have big fucking sell off.
Addressing Potential Market Downturns
Recession, call it however you want to call it. And by that time, you want to make sure to be out of the markets because otherwise you will see your network fucking plummet. Like in really, I don't want to say in seconds, but, you know, in just a few days, you can have, like, your network getting halved, you know, and you don't really want to be in that position.
Community Reactions to Market Instability
But regarding what happened, I see, like, many newcomers that are just, like, too hard on themselves because they didn't anticipate this fucking recent sell off. But guys, like, it was basically impossible to anticipate this sell off. Like, 99% of the people that claim to have, like, yeah, I was waiting for it.
Realities of Market Speculation
I knew that. Blah, blah. It's like a bit of bullshit. Because without the Japan news and the fucking fear across all the markets, I don't think we would have seen, like, BTC to, like, 49, especially in that short time frame, you know? So, I mean, don't be too hard on yourself.
Perspective and Emotional Resilience
Sometimes you cannot predict events that are also, like, outside the crypto market and everything. Just make sure to, like, zoom out and look at the bigger picture. If you look at the BTC chart at the moment, we're still back into the same range that we have been in since February.
Consistency in Market Trends
So it's more than six months. Nothing has changed. The weekly candle is, of course, we still have one day until the closure. But it's really bullish in my opinion. And I think it's just a matter of time before we actually start to move higher, you know?
Future Projections and Momentum
And actually, we have been saying this for many months. At this point, usually there is like a lag between the alving and actual, the actual breakout and the next impulse higher. So I think we are getting there. I think the next few months will be extremely bullish for crypto.
Individual Financial Health and Long-term Strategy
So don't be too hard on yourself if your portfolio didn't really, like, made insane gains in the past few months, or you actually lose, like, 20%, 30% of it, because it's part of the game. Volatility in crypto is normal. You have to embrace it.
Day Trading vs. Long-term Strategizing
If you are a day trader, of course, you can keep switching. Like, you can enter a trade, then you can stay in stable, then you enter another trade, then you're back in stable. But if you're an investor, and especially if you invest in, like, let's say, mid cap, small cap coins, and you, like, your goal should be, like, accumulate as many, as much crypto as you can and wait for the market to go.
Strategies and Market Cycles
Parabolic is the easiest way to play this market. You don't really have to be an expert. You don't have to change your bias every fucking day. We know what's coming. I think euphoria, just a matter of time.
Future Market Sentiments and Growth
I don't see the Buran ending without euphoria. So, again, don't be too hard on yourself if in the past few months, you didn't really make any money, because when the time comes, you will make, like, a shit ton of money in just probably, like, a couple months.
Market Maturity and Investor Mindset
That's what, like, that's what Al season is. That's what euphoria is like as a crypto investor. You can go, like, especially if you invest for the long term, if you invest, like, to ride the whole market cycle, you can go for months and months without seeing any gains.
Moments of Transformation
And then in a span of two months, you can see, like, you see everything you have ever dreamed of, you know? So again, like, just chill, relax, and everything is falling into place, in my opinion. This is why Nagato is the goat, because he keeps us all level-headed.
Reflections of Market Sentiments
So he wrote a post kind of summarizing what he just said. So I would recommend going up in the top in the jumbotron here and just bookmarking that and making sure that, you know, whenever you're feeling, like, down about, oh, you know, one of the key points that I took away, bro, is kind of like, don't feel bad if you're not, like, up 20 x, like every other fucking guy on the timeline that's flaunting his, you know, delta portfolio screenshots.
Community Engagement and Individual Focus
Just hold on. We're. You're in the right place. You're well allocated. you know, because this is the industry that has that upside, and the volatility to the downside is a signal of that. Like, we like volatility.
Volatility as a Market Asset
We embrace volatility because it works in our favor. And you just want to make sure that you're prepared and you're not over trading and you're not too hard on yourself. As long as you're here, you're. You're doing the right thing.
Legal Developments and Market Reactions
brother, I, I wanted touch just really quickly, because I think it's interesting news about the ripple case. We don't have to go super deep, and obviously me and you are not lawyers, but just to like to cover it, I think it's important because it is big news.
Ripple's Legal Outcomes
Ripple, they basically wrapped up their lawsuit with the SEC this week. They were ordered to pay a $125 million fine. The thing is that it is way less than what some people were expecting or what the SEC was seeking, which was $2 billion.
Legal Precedents and Market Sentiment
And this has been a multi-year suit. And the judge said that they broke like almost 1300 securities laws or transactions broke securities laws. So 1300 different transactions, like, broke securities laws. But again, overall it was a win, as seen by XRP jumping up 18% on the day that this was announced.
Judicial Considerations and Market Outlook
And so just a quote from the judge said, there's no question that the recurrent, highly lucrative violation of SEC rules is a serious offense. However, this case does not involve allegations of fraud, misappropriation, or other more culpable conduct. The SEC has not established that Ripple's failure to register the institutional sales caused substantial losses or risk thereof to investors.
Corporate Reflections on Legal Proceedings
And CEO of Ripple, Brad Garlinghouse, said that the outcome was a victory for Ripple, the industry, and the rule of law the SEC headwinds against the whole of the XRP community are gone. So the reason I bring it up, bro, is this has been kind of like a flagship legal case for this industry and even normies.
Cultural Influence and Historical Context
Like, if you're going to ask, I mean, I guess the meme gain and the dogecoins of the world popped up. But if you ask anyone that, like, has heard about crypto and they don't really know that much, they've probably heard of, like, bitcoin, ethereum, maybe dogecoin, and then probably XRP, right?
Public Perception and Historical Significance
These are like the regular, it's one of the regular things that people will hear if they're just adjacent to the industry or they have a friend in it or someone was trying to pitch them on XRP in 2017, like, type shit. And it's good to get this out of the way, right? It's just like a black cloud that was hanging over the space and it's no longer there.
Market Dynamics and Positive Responses
And it was a positive response from a price action standpoint. And so the market received this well, and I think it's just one more kind of piece of proof that this industry, I mean, definitely bitcoin, but overall, this industry, I believe, is very anti-fragile.
Persistent Challenges and Market Resilience
And it's like, no matter how things kind of shake out, what headwinds are put in the way of trying to let this thing propagate and kind of build itself up, it's always going to find a way around it, because it's a living organism, in my opinion.
The Concept of Memes in Culture and Finance
It's an energy, it's an idea. It is a meme. And maybe we want to go into some of the meme stuff, but memes are just an idea that moves from brain to brain. That's all it is. Some people are familiar with memes as an image that you have some text on and a funny picture, but that's just an Internet meme.
Memes as Ideas and Influence
Right. But, like, a meme itself is actually like an idea that's easily transferable across brains. And the idea of crypto and bitcoin itself is a meme. Right. It's like something that is able to move around. So the more things that get removed in kind of letting that meme circulate with a positive reinforcement, the better.
Reflections on Ripple Developments
So I don't know where you want to take that, bro, but I just thought it was worth mentioning kind of everything that went down with ripple this weekend, I. No, of course. It was extremely important for the market was, it's a great victory that can set, like a positive, you know, a positive, like, I don't know the word, but positive press precedent, something like that.
Positive Impacts and Market Attributions
Is it okay, brother. That's okay, brother. Okay. Positive precedent for the market. So, yeah, I mean, also XRP responded finally, like, with some sort of, like, positive price action, even if it's still at fucking low levels. The all-time high of XRP that made it like, was made in like 2017 and it's like $3 something, and now it's like $0.60.
Historical Context and Recent Performance
But yeah, if you remember, like, even like during the last bull market, XRP didn't even, like, go close to the all-time high. So maybe now without the SEC case open, now that they won, quote, unquote, maybe they would be able to also start running again and maybe reach the ultima.
Community Hopes and Price Expectations
It would be really nice for the XRP community because, you know, like, those guys have been holding XRP for years and years. Today on Oli basically saw sideways price action. They never actually experienced, like, crazy gains. So I'm happy for them. And I hope that XRP will actually start rocketing soon.
Sentiments on Market Futures
It deserves to be higher. I mean, people, some people love it, some people hate it. Actually, I was like XRP fanboy when I started investing in crypto, but then I. I don't know, I don't even remember why, but I decided to sell my bags, chase some other shit coins, and it was the right decision, so.
Personal Investment Experiences and Reflections
But, yeah, but I still hope that XRP, we can, like, we'll be able to probably catch up and maybe break its previous ultimate mind in the future. Let's see. Talking about memes, I've seen, like, many fucking people, like, during this deep, they were basically trash talking.
Community Dynamics and Market Perception
All the people who decided to, you know, buy the depot memes, you know, and I think it's fucking stupid, you know, like, if you paid attention to the crypto market, you probably realized that memes were basically the, like, number one narrative of this bull run.
Critiques of Community Commentaries
So, like, trash talking people that were actually taking advantage of this deep to double down on memes. I think it's fucking stupid, you know, and I think that what happened with memes in the past few months was just like anticipation of what's coming.
Trends and Anticipation in Crypto Markets
Because in my opinion, when all the NPC's, the newcomers in the market will join the market, what do you think they will buy first? Like memes, which are funny, easy to understand. You don't have to do like crazy deep research and everything, or they will go and buy boring utility coins.
Entry into Cryptocurrency Trends
I think that the first wave of retailers will jump straight into memes. So actually bashing someone that's buying high-quality memes, I really think it's fucking stupid. And I saw many quote unquote influencers doing that, and I didn't really like it.
Personal Opinions and Market Trends
Names. Say names. No, I don't really want to say names, but I think it's fucking stupid. Of course, like, you know, when investing memes, probably like 95% plus of memes you see out there, they are fucking shit. But if you actually do your own research and invest in the other 5% of memes, I think you have like, one, like some of the easiest fucking five x, ten x's you can, you can get in the market.
Investment Strategies and Personal Preferences
And of course, like, I don't really want to shield Ponky, but I will shield ponky because my favorite, meanwhile, you will shield donkey and you will like it, dude. Yeah, always shield donkey, like basically every day. So, yeah, I mean, honkies donkeys in the chat.
Community Dynamics and Investments
Let's see some hearts up. Yeah, but to prove that. To prove the point, like, the only coin that I bought during this deep was funky. Like, no joke. And I. Yeah, bought it maybe a bit too soon. But, you know, like, if you see the price action, it went, like, to, like, what?
Price Assessments and Market Trends
Twenty one cents?
The Return of Meme Coins
And now he's back at, like, 38. So crazy strength. And, I mean, of course you don't want to be dumb, as I said, like, with memes, because most of them are fucking shit coins. But if you find the good one, the right ones, like, easiest fucking five x, ten x in the Buran, in my opinion. So all the people will say like, oh, don't invest in me. You're stupid. I. Blah, blah. I think they are fucking sorry, but retarded. Because if you. If you are. If you're investing in crypto at the moment and you don't have a portion of. Yeah, bro. Like, if you invest in crypto right now and you don't have a portion of your portfolio in memes, you basically ate money. That's it. I agree. I agree.
The Importance of Attention
Oh, hey, what's up, Ponky? Hey, yo, what's going on? What's going on, guys? I wanted to make a comment on what you said about the memes. Bitcoin is actually the biggest meme in history. Facts. Well, this is the voice of Ponky. I'm one of the team members. Are you a mu. Are you a monkey? I'm not a monkey, no. Oh, so you're not the monkey. Okay, so the monkey itself, where does he ever get online? No, the monkey is in is every one of us. So he's always online. Let's fucking go. Good answer. Good answer. Yeah, I think that if you look. So I just pinned a tweet that I put up this week kind of outlining pretty much what Nagato just said, actually. In fact, I'm pretty sure Nagato gets all his ideas from my tweets. This is a perfect example where if you are looking at, you know, if you believe in the overall thesis of crypto, or at least if you believe that we're in a bull market right now, you think that we're going much higher.
Cycles and Market Behavior
And meme coins traditionally have been introduced into these different cycles during euphoria. Right. I did a post, actually, a different post about this a few weeks back where I kind of outlined, like, pretty much all of them, the only one that had ever been launched. That is like, a successful one that wasn't during euphoria prior to this cycle was Shiba Inu. But like, dogecoin and then all the BNB coins last cycle and all that stuff, it was all during euphoria, dogecoin euphoria in 2013, but still. And this cycle we saw something interesting where like, all these coins were starting to launch and like 2020, basically the full year of 2023. Like, throughout the year of 2023, as you know, were still in a bear market, technically. You started to see meme coins pop up because there has been like, a lot more experience now in community building online.
Building Community and Engagement
Even if you look at like the NFT stuff that happened last cycle, if nothing else, whether or not they come back, I don't know. But it was an excellent exercise in community building in web three, right, where. And people got used to this idea of like, rallying around different characters and different communities that are backed by tokens. And perhaps the non fungibility of these tokens was overstated as far as, like, importance goes. And so now we've kind of like, gone into just the fungible aspect of these meme coins where it's just about price and it's about community and it's about content and it's nothing necessarily about like, oh, I have a unique ponky token. It's like, who really gives a fuck? Are you like part of this movement or not? Right? And now if you believe we're in a bull cycle and meme coins have kind of established themselves as, I mean, it's hard to argue anything other than meme coins have been the alpha narrative so far in this cycle, right?
Navigating Risks and Opportunities
I mean, you really can't make an argument otherwise. and if you think we're in the bull cycle and we're getting massive dips, like huge dips, like 70% off all time high type dips, but you're watching bitcoin and it's only down, you know, 15, 20%, whatever it is, 25%, like that standard kind of correction that we get in bull markets. Well, what do you think's going to happen when bitcoin corrects to the upside of the meme coins are going to go double, triple, quadruple as fast? So again, we're not saying you should have 100% of your portfolio in meme coins, but if you don't have any, you're kind of leaving the highest beta play on the table. It definitely has more risk to the downside. But we're all playing in a speculative market here. You could maybe argue that bitcoin has some utility in terms of store of value, from just an overall zeitgeist perspective, you're starting to see from the traditional institutions and Wall street accepting it and saying, okay, this is digital gold in some respect.
The Utility of Bitcoin
Now, whether it's acting like that from a price perspective yet, you know, not completely. It's still kind of correlated to markets, but there is like, somewhat of a buy in psychologically and literally from traditional players into bitcoin as a hedge of some kind. So, fine that you could maybe argue has some utility at this point. Everything else is speculation. So why wouldn't, if everything's speculation and subject to the overall market, why wouldn't you have a piece of. Of your portfolio, even if it's single digit percentages in the ones that are going to go the fastest when speculation runs rampant and if we haven't entered that thrill in euphoria yet, and then you look at, okay, what projects? How do I determine whether there's a project meme coin that deserves my attention?
Evaluating Meme Coins
For me, I mean, the thing that turned me on about Ponky was their content strategy and just the volume and the quality and the fact that it's video content as opposed to just images. Like, that's a huge differentiator. When you look across all of the different meme coins and the things that they're trying to create online, it's. They have their characters, they have their little, like, you know, joke or whatever, and. But they don't. They don't. It's hard to capture emotion without, like, seeing movement and without seeing, like, put, I'm gonna write. I'm writing up another tweet about this, but it's like, it's not that there's character development per se. There may be in the future, there's option for that, which is also kind of exciting.
Connecting with Characters
But, like, you're getting to see this particular character, the ponky monkey in this case, live out different human scenarios that enable you to relate to it on an emotional level, whether you like it or not. And you can agree or disagree with how he's reacting to certain movements in the market or whatever positions they put him in these little fun animated videos, but they're pumping them out at fucking scale, dude, across platforms to the tune of almost 700,000 followers across TikTok, Instagram, and Twitter in just eight months. Like, that's absurd. And it's all organic, okay? So to me, as a marketer, as a content guy my whole career, I look at that and I say, you know, all that matters in crypto when price starts to move is attention.
The Power of Attention in Crypto
Where are people going to come into the market and put their attention? Are they going to try and figure out, like, how the consensus mechanism works for, like, a new layer two? Or are they going to, like, buy a fucking, you know, fun, excited community coin that has, like, a character that's relatable, that price is moving faster? Like, it just. It's a no brainer to me to have a portion in meme coins. And for me, like, Ponky makes a lot of sense because the volume and differentiation of their content, and particularly across platform, you really don't see a lot of meme coins doing the damn thing on Instagram. So Nagato showed me Ponky, and it's been a great ride so far. Yeah, I mean, if you look at, like you said, the tweet that you put up on the bounce, 57% up from compare from yesterday's crash compared to that of it, to bitcoin, 14%.
The Landscape of Meme Coins
You know, memes tend to run hotter than majors. So there's definitely, I would say, this cycle, you know, you spoke about nfts, you spoke about, you know, utility, defi, and all that stuff. Like, that stuff is kind of boring this cycle. And people, it's kind of like the curtains have kind of opened up, and everyone's realized that we're all here, for one thing. And it's a generational wealth. And, you know, everyone comes to the. Comes in the crypto room to make money for their families or the, everyone around them and change lives and everything. And there's something to say about where crypto is going and what needs to happen to take it to where it's going.
Visions for Bitcoin's Future
Right? Like, we get, we all say bitcoin's going a million dollars, right? What does it take for bitcoin to get it go to a million dollars? It takes multiple cycles of convicted people that understand that digital digitizing currency is the future, and ponky in itself is just a small piece of that big picture. You know, the ponky army that we built is just a very small fraction of. Of what's to come, you know, and, yeah, we will see bitcoin at a million dollars one day. It's not going to. A lot of people come into crypto. They think it's going to happen overnight. You know, they have to realize it takes time for this to happen, you know, a lot of time.
Hybrid Portfolio Strategy
Crypto legato. Oh, yeah. I want to, I want to add something regarding this topic. So basically, we are not saying fucking sell all utility coins and just go all in memes. No, the key word here is hybrid. You want to build a hybrid portfolio. And what's an hybrid portfolio? A portfolio which is composed on different coins and so you can write different narratives at the same time. Yeah. You want to have some AI coins. You want to have some DP in coins, you want to have some meme coins. You want to have, like, you want to be exposed to many different narrative. At least you want to go, and you definitely want to go into Negato's profile and click on the link and go to his telegram channel because it's fucking lit in there. It's free, and you can ask questions.
Community Engagement and Knowledge Sharing
There's people talking in there all day about all these types of strategies. People are sharing solid ta. All that stuff. So I just wanted to share that. Cause, like, part of managing your portfolio is, like, being around this community. So it's good you come to wifi money every week. And you should be following me in Nagato, but also make sure you're in his telegram channel. Let me tell you something. So if you go on my link tree in my bio, and you click on the telegram link, it's actually, I think, expired because I changed the link and I didn't update my link three because I'm lazy. Two weeks ago, you said the same thing. You still haven't updated that shit.
Technical Glitches and Follow-up
What's. Yeah, what's the. Yesterday, I shield my telegram channel on x. Yeah, the tweet was live for like, 1 hour, and then I deleted, and I got, like, 500 people. Okay, I'll get a link. I'll put it in the. In the jumbotron. Hold tight, guys. Hold tight. Keep going. I think. I think if you just, like, search for, like, wi fi stoic, you. You can. You get the channel. So it's a public channel. You can find it easily. Gone. What do you mean gone? I interrupted your brilliant speech about how you need a hybrid portfolio. And by the way, guys, you can look up in the jumbotron now, and you should at least in a few seconds.
The Jumbotron Explanation
Sometimes it takes like, 10 seconds to load, but there's a link right there. Jumbo drone. You know exactly what I'm fucking talking about, dude. Yeah. Don't be an asshole. All right, but why the name is jumbotron? What a fuck. How do you find, like, where do you find it? It's a. It's an english word. It's like, when you go to, like, a stadium. you. I don't know if you have those in Italy, we do have electricity, though, at those. Oh, yeah, we do. That's. Oh, that's awesome. I mean, it's like, I haven't been in Italy, like, in a long time, so I don't know if they still have electricity.
Explaining the Concept
Stairs. I don't know. I would go there. When you go to a stadium and then, like, in the middle, like, hanging down is like. Yeah, yeah, a big screen. It's like the jumbo trip. Or just like, a big screen up on, like, in a movie theater. Thank you, thank you, thank you. You didn't know. And I'm explaining it now. Okay. And I'm gonna explain it until I'm done explaining. okay. Okay. And then what. What I want to see from you guys, I want to see a rush right now. I want to see everyone rush into the telegram. I want to see it just like, join, join, join.
Encouraging Participation
Okay, go. I'm gonna. I'm gonna go watch that while you tell us about meme coins, Nagato. I don't have to say. I don't have anything to say about meme coins. Okay, fine. Then I'll just do everything. So, guys. Bro, I don't know anything about meme coins. Like, the only meme coin I actually know about this spunky. Like, yeah, I've seen, like, other meme coins that went viral and shit, but, you know, like, nothing resonates with me as much as spunky. So at the moment, that is the only meme coin in my portfolio. I'm not really a fan of, like, over diversification.
Portfolio Diversification
Like, I don't want to hold, like, 3 million coins. So I already have, like, I guess, like, eleven coins in my portfolio, maybe twelve. And I don't really want to over diversify into memes as well. Like, my exposure to the meme niche is funky because, as I said many times, it's the perfect risk to reward ratio for me. Like, it's a meme coin that's already established because it has, like, 200 million market cap, something like that. And it already has a community, a lot of followings, a lot of I behind it, but it's nothing a giant yet. So the potential for, like, a big Roi, which is like five x, ten x, or whatever, is still here.
Evaluating Current Investments
But it's not like a crazy low cap meme coin shit coin that can rug pull tomorrow, you know? So for me, it's the perfect choice. And at the moment, I'm basically. It's my only meme exposure. And I think, same for you, Greg. I guess. Or you have something else? I don't remember. I have one other. but I'm not going to show it today. Oh, it's a small. No, it's. It's actually bigger. Okay. But, yeah, so, Oh, by the way, I just realized, the channel that I put up there, that's the channel.
Community Dynamics
I can't. As a. As a non admin. This guy hasn't even added me as an admin. Incredible. I can't. You. I can't get a link to the group. So if you guys just join that channel, that's. Maybe you want to post in the channel right now Nagato. Just a link to the. No, basically, guys, if you join my channel at the moment, just scroll a bit up and you will find the link to the chat. It's like three, four messages above. So just scroll it a bit higher. There you go. Yeah.
Telegram Channel Guidelines
So one. So if you guys aren't totally familiar with telegram, the channels are one way communication, so negato, like, drops a bunch of, you know, just posts in there so that you know what's up. And then there's. If you scroll up just a little bit in there's a link to the chat, and that's where, like, few thousand of us are just talking all day long. Okay, so, bro. Yo, hold on. Before you go. Before you go. Before you go, I just want to say, we're going to open up the stage. So if you guys want to hop on stage here on the bottom left, anything that we talked about, that is interesting to you, if you have a comment or a question, please hit the microphone on the bottom left.
Engagement on Stage
Come on up. If you've never spoken on a space before, now's your time. This is the signal. This is the sign you've been waiting for to finally speak on a space and stop being a little pussy. Negato. Never spoke on his face before. I made him, and now look at him. He's a fucking pro. So get on here. Share your. Share your thoughts. The only thing I would say is, we have to throw this disclaimer out because we've just had some experiences. Is like, we're not interested in your life story.
Guidelines for Participation
Respectfully, we're not interested in everything you have to say about everything. Just have a point. You got a minute or so? Make your point or ask a question. We'll keep it conversational. Instead of monologues. Only me and Nagato get to monologue. That's the only rule of Wi Fi money. All right, go ahead, bro. What do you think is going to happen on Monday? Precise. More precisely, Monday night? What is that, the Trump elon talk? Yeah.
Upcoming Market Influences
Then we actually go live on x, I guess. And, you know, like, during this week, Donald Trump Junior, it. We did something. It was like, we are about to shake the world with something huge. Dude. There's so much drama with that. There's so much drama with that. That's, like, worth getting into with, like, the DJT coin and, like, all. No, no, I don't want to talk about it. But what do you think? Like, it would be bullish or bearish for the market, because usually, like, those kind of events, they end up to be like, I sell the news or something like that.
Market Speculations
So maybe we can. And if you combine that to the fact that I will jump on a plane, I guess we have, like, a nice, short opportunity. Yeah. I think that actually will have more impact on the market. I think there's two different things, right? There's. One is, like, the Don Junior and Eric Trump coin, and then one is, like, the Trump Donald Trump and Elon conversation. I don't think those are tied together in any way, and I also think neither of them will impact the market.
Speculations on Trump and Elon
I. Me and you talked about this yesterday. I don't even think Trump and Elon are going to talk about crypto. Maybe it'll come up. But I would put it at, like, 5% chance. That's my opinion. I know. I think you think otherwise. And then the Donald Trump junior and Eric Trump coin, I think, would be a terrible idea for them to do because they're literally just cash grabbing, and it's so obvious, and it's just a bad look for your fucking dad's name at this time. You know, that's just the last thing he needs. But, yeah, so I don't think either of those are, like, really good or bad for the market.
Concerns about Potential Impacts
You think that Elon and Trump are going to start talking about crypto, and I just think there's so much bigger things to talk about. Oh, of course. That we talk about bigger things first, but at some points, that we. At some point, that we also talk about crypto, like, under percent. Like. Good morning, gentlemen. How are you all? We're good. We're good. Good morning, g. Yeah, hi. I mean, good night for me. Sorry, you guys.
Personal Greetings and Adjustments
I've never spoken on space. I'm a little nervous. No worries. Okay, take a deep breath. You can dare me. Somebody dare me to come up here. I'm from the crash community, so I just want to tell you guys, hello, we're big supporters of Ponky. We're the ETf of all of crashes calls with a legacy token. And you know, we're, went to all time high of 40 million market cap. We're currently sitting around 5 million crashes.
Introducing Community Support
Clay, why don't we do, hold on, yo, why don't we not do the shill thing and let's do like maybe give your take on like the meme coin space so that we can bring. We're not really doing everyone come up and talk about their token. That's like one of the things I didn't say that. So you didn't know. But yeah. Let's keep it a little more general on your thoughts on the market. Yeah, I think the market's very early right now.
Market Timing and Strategy
So if you have your conviction plays, you should be getting into them. And the majority of the volume is going to come in toward the tail end of the crypto cycle, which is why you need to get out and build your brand. Spread the word regarding your tokens, your conviction plays, and crash ponkydenness, Bobo, Brett, all those are big conviction plays for us.
Identifying Community Players
So who is us exactly? Oh, the crash token, bro. We're the ETF of crashes calls. You know who crashes Clay is, right? Oh, you made it. Please tell me you do. Yes, I am aware. Yeah, he rolls. Interesting character. Is he, is he really young? Is that right? Yeah, he's actually like nine years old. Most people think he's 13, but he's like a fucking savant, bro.
Curiosity about Identity
No, like, how old is he really though? Like 16 or something? Or 18 or is he just lying and he's like 25, bro. It's a troll, bro. He's, he's like in his twenties or thirties. All right. But yeah, I was like, damn, that guy's a good writer for a fucking teenager. But yeah, no, he's, I always find it interesting with brands like that just to, I don't know a lot about them, but I just, you know, like when you're like that brash, you know what I mean?
Discussion on Brand Development
Like, it's interesting to see how those play out over longer term, so. Okay, so you guys have a little ETF going and you have ponky in the mix and you have some of the other ones. I mean, you see how, you see all how his calls are playing out, right? Everything he's called so far? Yeah, I don't really track it that well. I know he's in the. You should probably do that if you like money, if you're not allergic to money, you should probably track it.
Monitoring Market Trends
All right, well, we'll get him in here. We'll talk about it, you know, come to our spaces. He's always in our spaces, bro. Yeah. All right, well, he can come to our space because. Yeah, well, actually, I don't want to be a dick. I just. I'm just a dick. Do you know what I mean? And sometimes I have to be like, no, Greg, listen to Nagato and go listen to more Joe Dispenza and take a deep breath.
Engaging with Perspectives
Yeah, you should probably listen to more crash, bro. Dude. Okay, why are you simping so hard for another guy? That's so I'm being a dick like you, all right? I'm not. I was resisting being a dick, bro. Relax. Now you're kind of being a dick. I love it. I love it when somebody comes into the space and gets passive aggressive with the host over their meme coin that nobody knows about. It's not a meme coin, dude.
Clarifying Misunderstandings
It's an ETF of another man's ideas that I now branding myself around. You don't understand. It's bigger than. It's a legacy. Token. Frankie. Frankie, I know who you are, so it's lower on the tier. Got it. Oh, you know who I am? That's. Yeah, you're the gay guy that just spoke. Oh, hold on a sec. That was good one. I like that.
Lighthearted Exchanges
I'm sorry, bro. I just felt like you had some low t issues, so I wanted to try and get him up. Okay, so, Frankie. What? I got nothing but love for you, Frankie. Even if Frankie's kind of a gay name. It's all good here, bro. Okay. Frankie, what's cracking, man? Welcome back.
Personal Interactions
What? oh. Nagato, are you uncomfortable? Are you uncomfortable? No, I wasn't actually following you guys. Like, I don't know anything about what you talk about. The little kid. What the fuck? What the fuck, bro? I'm just laughing. Let me laugh. Let me cheat. No. Nobody knows about it. Why he's mad.
Reflections on the Conversation
It's like. Just imagine, Nagato, that somebody made, like, an ETF of all the things that you ever talk about and then goes and, like, brands himself around you and then goes into spaces and then says, like, if you don't follow Nogato, you're a fucking loser. That's kind of what just happened. Someone should say that. That would be dope. I just said, if you're allergic to money, you probably shouldn't follow us.
Concluding Remarks
Frankie, how's it going, man. How you been? What's on your mind, my g, hey, pretty good. Just chilling, you know, trying not to look at my portfolio, try not to look at coin market cap too much. Trying to just have conviction, which really isn't too hard. I have a question, but I'll take my minute and I'll, and I'll just bull, post a little bit. And, you know, I just have so much conviction right now.
Market Opportunities and Predictions
Ponka, I'm sure you got your finger on the pulse. What, you know, what narratives are you, were you, how you hyped about, and, you know, if you want to go so far as to even talk about a project or two within those narratives. That's all you. Nagato. I mean, we've been talking about meme coins, I think is like, kind of, and then I think there's, like, the easy rundown of, like, AI Rwa Dpin. I don't know. Nagato. I think you've put more thought into this than I have. No. Yeah, I was about to say the same things. AI rwa deep in memes. Those are my top four for this one. Nothing else to say.
Emerging Trends and Market Dynamics
And there's always, like a. There's always one. I feel like that comes out of nowhere, though. Like, I would say there's like a TBD. So I would be curious to see if anyone has any, like, predictions or guesses on, like, which one could emerge. Like, last cycle, it was like, metaverse. No one was. I mean, yeah, people had. People owned some metaverse coins, but no one knew, like, Zuckerberg was going to rename Facebook meta, and then all of those tokens were going to go ham. Like, something could easily happen like that. I wonder if anyone's got any other narratives or any other kind of sectors that have potential. I'm sorry, Nagato, could you repeat those that you said? I didn't hear them. I said, like, AI deep in RWA and memes.
Insights on AI and RWA Trends
I think what we saw since now, basically, like, what we saw earlier this year, around January and February, I guess, was just anticipation of what's coming. So all the strong coins that we saw back then will be the ones that will go up the most, in my opinion. Maybe there would be another narrative that will pop, like, pop out in the next few weeks or something. But, I mean, my bets are on RWA deep in memes and AI. And specifically regarding AI, I think it will have another run for sure. Hello, guys. Hello, Greg. Hello. Negato. What's up, man? Eric, hold tight, brother. We're just going to grab a couple other people who have been waiting, and then I want to hear from you as well, for sure. Frankie, did that answer your question? Yeah, definitely. Appreciate that.
The Future of Markets and Investment Strategies
Awesome. Let me add you something. Let me add something here. Like, I think that, of course, like, the market will move in waves, and I guess, like, those narratives will just outperform most of the other coins in the market. But when we have like Alcazone, I guess like basically every other narrative will also go up. Maybe not as parabolic as those one, but they will also go up. So, I mean, if you want to make, I think that if you want to make as much gain as you can, I think those four are the places you want to be more invested in. But of course, like, I guess like when the market is going to go higher, every coin is going to go higher. I think you have a good point about AI. That one is so deep into people's minds as something that's next, even outside of crypto. It just has everyone that's paying attention to life is just like, oh, AI.
Challenges and Opportunities in RWA
That could take a much smaller catalyst, I feel, to set off some of these tokens. RWA, I think long term in crypto actually is one of the most bullish possible sectors because everything's going to be tokenized. It also feels like at this stage, it's very difficult to wrap your head around. How is that going to manifest in terms of choosing certain tokens? There's even some gray area around which tokens are RWA because there's so many elements to that. RWA is super broad and I don't really even understand deepin, like, how that is. So I think with AI, that seems really primed, where all it takes is one company. If chat GPT says we may involve crypto in the future, if Sam Altman mentions it in passing in an interview one time, all those tokens could go like 30%, do you know what I mean? Like, I just feel like there's like a pent up AI energy that is waiting to explode.
Future Implications of the Crypto Market
Absolutely. Like AI would be massive, even outside crypto. Like, there are many companies that are like building, using AI at the moment. And I feel like the next wave is coming soon. And yeah, that's why I think it's still the biggest narrative for this cycle alongside memes, because also memes are extremely powerful. Those will be my top two bets if I have to bet on something. But yeah, AI would be. Can I say something that's completely unrelated? Dude, I just cracked open this ghost energy drink and I rarely drink energy drinks, but when I'm out of my house and I have long drives and stuff, sometimes I'll just go for it. First of all, guys, one little thing. You're probably not going to understand it until you write it down or maybe you've seen this thing, but almost every single one of these energy drinks has b twelve in it.
Health Insights and Energy Drinks
And you can have a couple different types of b twelve. One is cyanocobalamin. You don't want that. You don't want that because what that is. Yeah, there's a little bit of cyanide in it, but like very low traces. Like it's not going to impact you. The reason you don't want that is because they get it for free from sewage plants because they scrape off the bubbles off the top of the shit and then they make it into powder and then they send it to the energy drink people and it gives you b twelve. Cyanocobalamin, synthetic b twelve. But some of these have methyl cobalamin. That's natural b twelve. So there's a couple that have that. So like bang. And these ghost drinks have that. Anyway, that's a side note. That's just a little life thing. Unless you like drinking shit.
Market Trends and Personal Experiences in Crypto
Thanks, bro, but I just drank some of this. I've never had this before. Ghost sour patch. Like sour patch kids flavor. Like the red one. It fucking tastes exactly like a sour patch kid. My mind's kind of blown. Sorry for the tangent. No, it's good to know, bro. Most, most of those energy drinks have high correlation between cancer and heart issues. Oh, they're terrible for you. They're terrible for you. But I live pretty disciplined, healthy life, so I just have one every couple of months or whatever it is. But yeah, just watch out for that cyanocobalam. And it's also in, so it's in celsius, it's in monster Red Bull, and it's also in like Vitamin water, a bunch of the flavors. Not all of them, but most of them like prime. All that shit all has cyanocobalamin.
Continued Discussions and Perspectives
So, yeah, anyway, okay, let's go over to, let's go to paid XPo who's been waiting patiently with his hand up. What's up, my friend? Yeah, what's going on, guys? Thanks for hosting space. Thanks for having me up. I actually came in here because I saw Ponky and I was like, oh, fuck Ponky. I'm one of the co hosts of the crypto breakfast club. I wanted the co host of the crypto breakfast club of Zack Humphries Monday to Friday. Not a show, but he always talks about punky all the time and all his videos and say, oh, fuck this punky on stage. I never seen him on stage somewhere. I was like, I wonder what the fuck's going on here. But now I'm like, you know what, let me get in the conversation a little bit. You know, I ain't showing no project, not showing no shit, but I do like the RWA sector.
Discussions on Real Estate and Market Strategies
And I know a lot of real estate investment firms are looking pretty hard at it, especially in, you know, cities, and I would say states like Massachusetts and cities specifically Boston, who have, like, some of the highest rents in the country. It's a place I was living for almost a decade, and I finally decided to move because the rent was too fucking high. But I know RWas is going to be the big play. My question to you guys would be, what would your plays be for real estate, specifically, rwas coming up in this bull run? That's so. That's, like, the most impossible question. I don't know if anyone has the insights on that. I don't know if Nagato does, if anyone else on stage has a, like, an actual. Some alpha on that, but, dude, I think real estate, maybe I'm wrong.
Evaluating RWA in the Real Estate Market
I feel like that type shit is so far away from being, like, tokenized in a meaningful way. And I've seen so many, like, real estate on the blockchain, like. Like, kind of companies. I don't know if this is the bull run for that. What do you think, Nagato? No, let's. Let's be honest, guys. Like, all the RWA projects in this bull run, we just basically sell, like, we just basically used this bull run to get capital to get going over the next two, three, four years and actually realize what they want to realize. Like, this Buran won't be based on their utility, their success. You know, it's just, like, mostly hype. They will sell you a dream that will sell you, like, a dream scenario that will make a lot of money, and they will use the money during the next bull market to keep working, to keep developing, and hopefully they will reach their goal.
Predictions and Market Insights
Okay. Nothing is happening during this bull run. Nothing is happening in the next six months. Regarding tokenization, in my opinion, at least there will be a few exceptions, maybe in some industries that are nothing as regulated as, you know, real estate. But, yeah, most, like, FWA projects at the moment, they just sell you a vision, you know, bro, the only RWA stuff that has legs in the short to medium term is, like, tokenized securities and bonds. They're moving all, like, the stock market and equities and all that shit onto the blockchain or onto, like, DLT platforms. That is real and that is coming in the next few years. And we've seen a lot of announcements around that we've actually seen some of this stuff go live in, like, Switzerland and in Asia. And that's coming. So that's where I'd be looking at personally with RWA, not to like, real estate and like, putting auto, like, cars and like, anything that, you know, people say, like, put blank, blank on the blockchain.
Navigating Challenges in RWA Implementation
That feels just like super hype, non deliverable type shit. No, as you say that it's gonna happen, but it's gonna take a while because regulations there are so fucking difficult not to overcome, like, or just to regulate. So, yeah, it's not gonna come in the next six months, that's for sure. Kind of say one quick thing. As far as real estate, you know, the only two that I've ever heard of are props and proppy those, if you wanna look into those. If you're interested in real estate. Rwas, it seems like to me, you know, RWa really kicked off and Larry Fink came on and started getting all bullish. I feel like Rwas at this point are just a proxy for, like, any. Any token that's.
Market Insights and Blackrock Connections
RWA is just a proxy for any connection to Blackrock, I think. Like, that's like, pretty much the sum of what, tokenized securities, right? So, yeah, basically it's just like, anyone who can flaunt a connection to Blackrock. Like, that's the RWA play. Yep, I think that's. That's a good point. And we saw h bar kind of go heavy, remember, even though that. That news, I think, was like half true. If you guys remember that, h bar had a move a couple of months ago because Blackrock listed something with someone who used h bar, blah, blah. So, like, there is something there, but yeah, it has to be tied, it feels like, to a black rock or a vanguard or like something like that. Wherever it becomes very clear.
Balancing Hype and Real-World Applications
But if it's just an industry play, it probably should be something with a little more hype already around it, like AI or something like that. RWA is too broad in my opinion. Okay, let's go to Martin, and then we're going to go to Eric. What's up, Martin? Hi, guys. Thanks for having me on. First time speaking on space too. So excited. I just had a pretty, let's say, broad question. Just. Just because it's my first cycle, and it's probably the first cycle we have memes on too. And I know we all want to make Gen wealth money. And I think punk is being by far the best at building a community that can behind the project. But how do you see sustainability after, let's say, everyone gets in and people start selling the positions, how does that translate into the future?
Exploring Sustainability in Meme Coins
Let's say maybe you talked about it. I popped in and out. So apologies if I am asking something that you already talked about. Well, I think your question is based on if we're ever gonna stop, we're never gonna stop. We're gonna keep on boarding forever. This ponky is a. Is an icon of this cycle that was birthed, this cycle, but he will continue to go on cycles and cycles beyond. So I guess that answers your question. Can you share, I mean, I'm not sure exactly who's behind the mic here and what. How deeply you're involved in everything, but, like, is there anything you can share about kind of the vision of the project and just, like, some of the future stuff you're excited about?
Future Developments and Visions
Yeah. So we've been building a lot of tech in the background, we've. There's been a pivot from wherever we started with Memetrend, which was going to be sort of like this Dex screener, Dex tools app. And now we've pivoted to onboarding. So we're creating a platform that makes onboarding much easier for people that don't know about crypto. Like, we. We took a step back, and we realized that everyone in crypto right now already knows about crypto. Like, they know how to use phantom, they know how to use all these different tools. But you think about the people that don't know anything about crypto, you know, which is 95% of the world, and there's so much liquidity that can be captured by teaching these people.
Barriers to Entry and Education
So Pocky's right now, like, the devs are working on the pivot, has gone towards working on a platform that allows people to learn. I don't know how to. I'm not. I'm not a dev, but I'm trying to, like, put it into words, how it makes sense. It makes sense. And I. Yeah, there's a. There's. The biggest issue in crypto is that people don't know how to use it. You know, people, you think about money as a paper pay. Money is paper. You're able to use cash everywhere, right? Crypto, there's so many minds and brains and people in the world that haven't used digital assets. You know, like, you think about apple pay, how quick that.
Shifting Perspectives in Financial Transactions
That took a toll. And, you know, like, I. Me personally, I use apple pay every day. Every transaction I do is with Apple Pay. So it's like digital. You know, the future is digital. And when money becomes digital, everything, it's like crypto just becomes like were here all along. You know, it's like the. Yeah, cool. Thank you. Thank you for answering that. Yeah, I get. Maybe you were also. Oh, go ahead. And I got on. You take it. Maybe, brother. You were also talking about, like, what's gonna happen in terms of price, right? Not just in terms of the tech.
Market Cycles and Investment Strategies
Yeah, that's. That. Yeah. That's obviously a consequence of. In terms of the price. What? Like, the market moves in cycles, so market moves and cycles, and market goes down. Like, Ponca will keep building, like Frankie said, right? Like, the printers are going on. This is that there's two worlds, right? There's the world we live in, which is the. Where we've woken up to the realization that crypto, we can send money, we can become custodians of our own money, rather than giving them to the banks. And we've.
Realizations in Crypto Investments
I think he's rugging a little bit. Nagato, you want to jump back in? No, I just want to say that, like, in terms of price, market will go up. Market will go down. Like, do not hold forever any coin. Like, when we have euphoria, take profits. Otherwise, you will just round trip again, and you will, like, go, like, -90% and you will cry. So make sure to take profit when we have euphoria independently of the coin you hold. That's just my opinion. Absolutely. I think. I think I completely agree with you, Nagato, and it makes sense. I mean, I said my first bull cycle, but I've seen what's happened in past cycles, so.
Reflections on Market Behavior and Strategies
Absolutely. It was just to understand what the long term vision for a project like Ponki, which is a meme, and first. Yeah. Cycle in a meme or in a bull cycle, and what they were working on for the future. That was it. That was my question, so. And I think that's been answered 100%, Martin. I'm gonna. Thank you guys. Something up here that I wrote, or two weeks ago, maybe. and it's this idea of, like, that basically, you know, the way that you start a business now is so much different.
Shifting Dynamics in Business and Cryptocurrency
Like, meme coins and crypto, well, are basically offering this avenue to, like, raise a huge amount of liquidity and get a, like, Like an organic, user generated marketing engine behind you that's, like, financially incentivized to continually promote your project and your. So what it does is it builds, like, brand IP overnight. Right. And so the harder you push with the content, the more people invest, the more people market for you. And it becomes this positive flywheel, especially when you're inside of a bull market where liquidity is high and people are looking for different types of fun and interesting investments.
Building Brands in a New Marketplace
And then I. What's exciting is, like, they're not going to be able to share with us probably, like, exactly what they envision for the brand. But all we should, in my opinion, be looking at is like, are they onboarding more users? Are they continually marketing themselves and building attention? And is their ip something that's relatable and can be translated into alternative mediums? So you can take this monkey and you can do things with him in terms of, like, animated series or, like, being in movies, or like, just having some sort of character arc across social media. Like, there's things you can do when VR starts to become more of a thing in AR.
Future Opportunities in Digital Media
And I think they're already working on some. Some interesting things, like, you know, having big partnerships and just getting their name out there so that they can, at the flip of a switch, you can kind of take this IP that you're. It used to take years to build IP for, like, a web two company. Only in a very small amount of cases would something go hyper viral as a traditional Internet company and brand. Now you're seeing it kind of by the dozen in crypto because of that flywheel effect that I laid out. So to me, it's like, okay, this is a new paradigm in a sense of brand building and awareness increase around certain IP that can then be translated into different mediums to monetize and to grow into the future.
Eric's Perspectives on Social Engagement
So that's kind of what I'm looking for. Appreciate it. Thanks for, thanks for that. All right, Eric, what's up, man? Thanks for waiting. What you got? Yo, what's up, Greg? Thanks for having me. I just want to say that you guys were talking about onboarding people, and when I think about normal people, they don't have time to understand protocols or AI or stuff like that, so what are they going to gravitate towards? And I feel like they're going to gravitate towards something that is like a meme because memes have taken over social media.
Cultural Relevance of Memes in Crypto
If you see Instagram, you see a bunch of memes, and I see all these normal people, my friends, they're, like, posting these memes, and I'm just like, over here making money off these memes. I feel like a lot of people are gonna wake up and they're gonna start seeing the top meme coins and they're gonna love it, and they're gonna be like, oh, I remember that meme coin from four chan. Oh, I remember this meme coin from this series. And I really feel like crypto is an attention economy, so we're gonna see a bunch of money flow into meme coins. And last cycle was the initiation of the meme coins, I believe, where shit really pops off to, like, billions in market. Captain, we're going to see so many meme coins above billion dollar market caps that you guys should really consider looking at memes.
Market Evolution and Financial Opportunities
And I'm not talking about the fresh ones. I'm talking about ones that have stood the test of time. And you guys can make a lot of money off meme coins. And I truly feel that 2024. 2025 is the meme coin bubble. This is where you guys are going to make a shit load of money off meme points. But you guys have to know how to sell. But, yeah, that's all I have to say. No, that's it, bro. That's definitely the take you summed up. I think a lot of what we've been saying quite nicely. That's it. Like, and by the way, selling also doesn't mean that you can't re enter. But we do know that euphoria over evaluates everything.
Importance of Selling in Market Fluctuations
So that's what we talk about, y'all. You know, many of you are in Wifi money every Saturday. By the way, if you're just joining us, thank you. We appreciate you. And we do these spaces every Saturday. We talk about the market. Me and Nagato, we're really focused on emotional management and market psychology, and we understand that this is a turbulent space and that having a community and people to talk to and having you guys up on stage sharing ideas in kind of a measured way. We're not, like, overly Shiller type guys. Yeah, we have our favorite tokens, and we share our opinions, but we try to focus on the fundamentals around investing.
Building Community and Support
You can join Nagato's telegram, where we all hang out and chat, which is up in the jumbotron, if you swipe a couple times. Or you could follow us both, which I'd highly recommend, and anybody else on stage that you're resonating with, and make sure you're joining Wi Fi money every week to talk about this. So, yeah, Eric kind of summed up a lot of what we've been talking about today and in the last couple episodes around meme coins and this attention, economy and euphoria is coming, and you have to know how to sell. If this is your first cycle, it's going to be very difficult.
Navigating Experiences in the Bull Market
It always feels like it's going to go higher, especially when everything is euphoric. Right. It's kind of like this. It's got this like inverse correlation where. Or I guess direct correlation with, like, the higher the price goes, the harder it becomes to sell. Exactly. Grant have to make a real concerted psychological effort to fight that and to say, look, I'm up ten x, I'm up five x, whatever it is. Let me take a piece off. You don't have to sell 100%. In fact, you shouldn't sell 100%, especially when you're getting started. But you have to know what it feels like to scrape 10%, to take 20%, to take your initial bag off the table and ride the profits.
The Emotional Side of Selling
Like, there's a certain feeling that you build up and you start to trust yourself and you say, okay, it could triple from here. Okay, fine, but I'm going to. It's not like I'm not going to reallocate it somewhere else. It's not like I didn't make money. Like, you can't lose money taking profits. And we're going to continue to preach that now when price action is quote unquote boring. Because when shit gets crazy. Nagato, you know this better than anybody, bro. Like, it's gonna be very counterculture to say, I'm selling some here, because everyone's gonna be a fucking genius, bro. That's how it goes.
Reflection on Past Experiences
This is my third cycle. I've seen it twice already. Some of you have been here even longer. Like, that's how it goes, man. And you have to fight it within yourself. But it's even really hard when you're on the timeline and everybody's killing it. And you've probably even made a few reckless moves that have worked out in your favor, and you don't realize it. And you're gonna have to be like, fuck, I wanna take, like, do you? Actually, at some point, you're gonna have to pull the trigger on a heavy bag, too. It's not just gonna be, oh, 10%, okay? I know what it feels like.
Strategizing for Long-Term Gains
If you really wanna do something, you're gonna have to sell 50, 60, 80% of your bag at some point if you really wanna crush. And that's really difficult when stuff has just been going up for six weeks straight. What do you think, Nagato? I'm a genius. Warren Buffett? Who? No, it's just a bull market, brother. Take fucking profits, or you or the market will humble you what a Wi Fi stoic dude. You hear that? I'm getting all riled up. I'm trying to, like, amp him up and he's just. It's a bull market, brother. Just take profits.
Personal Reflections and Lessons
Yeah, take profits. Because I round trip last cycle, I was big on shib. I was like around eight hundred k, and I round tripped it to 120k. Do not be like me, guys, let's fucking go. We all been there, bro. You literally have. You almost have to go through that as like, an initiation. But here's the thing. We didn't have spaces. I mean, we kind of had spaces last cycle. Spaces were literally introduced into Twitter in 2021. So it was like, kind of at the top. Space is launched. So I think it was just pure euphoria.
Impact of Community in Investment Decisions
And it wasn't like there was clubhouse rooms. I was in a bunch of those, but there were just mostly complete noobs and first timers on there. Crypto. Twitter did not have these organized rooms. Where, again, is why I'm encouraging you guys to follow us and come to these wi fi money rooms on Saturdays. Because we're going to be here throughout the entire market, through the full bull market, back into the bear, and on again. Because these community conversations, nagato and I are going to come in here when you guys feel like you're fucking kings and your friends are making money because you told them to do something, and you made a trade in here and there, and you even started staking on some liquid defi, blah, blah, and you're up, whatever, and you're going to think you're a God.
Building Confidence and Overcoming Challenges
And we're going to come in here and be like, oh, I just sold 80% of my bag yesterday. You're going to be like, look at these fucking idiots. I promise you, half of you are going to think, Greg, are you fucking stupid? Yeah. Are you stupid? Dude. Dude, did you just see the news? Fucking XRP just. They said it on CNBC. They said it's gonna double. Look at the. They're doing ta on mainstream media, bro. It's real. This time is different, actually. We just come on Wi Fi money and say, buy more is gonna go higher.
Marketing Strategies in Crypto
In the meantime, I have my PC open and I'm just fucking marketing. Yeah, that's the negato trademark move right there. Just dump on followers, dude. Every day. Crazy. The least transparent influencer on CT. Yeah, I've been dumping since day one. We're literally selling dirt on everybody. Yeah, basically, I sold like half my ponky during this space. Jesus. Come on, man. All right. We got a bunch of hands to get to. I do want to let everybody speak.
Community Engagement and Participant Involvement
We got a bunch of people here. Yeah. This is a great space. This is going really well. I want to also thank ponky for coming through and. And bringing, you know, all the crowd that he does and everyone that's here hanging around. Okay. I'm gonna do my best here. I think stranger, I guess stranger kiss. And then cryptol, and then Mar and then Bobby. Oh, no. When we got wes, I think Weston was here, actually, before Bobby. Fuck. We're gonna have to. We're gonna have to flip some coins, but I think stranger.
Open Forum for Discussions
You go first, Buddha. Stranger cats. Hello, guys. Thank you for having me up. You're so fucking welcome. What can we do for you? Hey, my g. Appreciate it. Appreciate it. I mean, I'm just so happy to be even on the spaces with the kind of stuff that when I tuned in and I heard you guys speaking, heard what Ponki had to say, you know, it just resonates with strangers so much. You know, the whole idea and the vision behind it and what we're thinking and what we're doing.
Aligning Visions and Community Goals
First things first, I want to say that what Eric was saying was completely right. Meme coins are actually going to be the ones that usher in the new crowd or the new people into this whole space. The people that are already here. We already know about crypto. I myself, this is my third bull run, so I've been involved since 2016. Yes. I've also round tripped generational wealth, all the rest of it. I've had the initiations, but I think in this current time, in this space, I've seen what's going on, and I've just thought to myself, you know what? I'm really and truly the focus that the money is shifting towards memes.
The Future of Meme Coins
But at the same time, you got to take it seriously. You know, it's not just about fun and games or just joking around or, don't get me wrong, the idea is about fun. But if you see the kind of money that's actually gone into these memes, you know, tokens are reaching 1 billion market cap. People are literally becoming millionaires overnight or forget that within 12 hours from buying a coin that maybe was a shield to them and things like that, and this is all happening off of memes. So, what, you know, the idea that I thought was, you need to make.
Responding to Market Trends
It needs to be able to resonate with the people. You know, the how, farther reaching could be this whole entire space if we were able to get the wider audience in, then we'd be able to have conversations that could push everything forward. People on Instagram are massive content engages, and that translates brightly into crypto. If we could mimic that thought process into what we do here in terms of onboarding and getting more influences that are willing to talk about crypto in the mainstream, it's going to be a powerful force.
Intro to Stranger Cats and Community Building
So, you know, stranger Cats is based on the series stranger things, and, you know, as everybody knows, stranger things is for the nerds. And this token is also for the nerds. You know, it's a community wherever I. We're building it. We're still in our building stage. We actually haven't even launched yet. You know, we're still just doing our marketing. We're building. We've got so much things, you know, that we're still building. We've got a game that we need to build. We've got a portal for trivia quizzes. If, you know, stranger things, then, you know, got a little. I'll call it a mini series. We don't want to do, like, nothing massive. You know, hopefully, maybe we end up on Netflix with it. But so far, it's just a little idea. We're creating little comic strips from, you know, from scenes from stranger things and recreating it.
Discussion and Clarity
I mean, brother, sorry to cut you off, but we didn't allow the other guy to shield his project. So I guess. Okay, sorry. So, not really a show. So what came to say? So, yeah. Definition of a shill. It's okay. No, we didn't. We. You probably weren't here. We're not doing that. That's the british version. No problem. I'm not too sure the project so much, but what I wanted to say, or what I came to say, really was exactly something Marcus Aurelius said. And he said that if you find something very difficult to achieve yourself, don't imagine it. Impossible for anything possible and proper for another person can be achieved as easily by you.
Concerns About Crypto and Community Engagement
Now, a lot of people will be looking at this crypto thing. They'll be scared to get in. They'll be thinking to themselves, well, you know, like, the money's already made. Like, these guys have already done it, like, over the years, and this, that. Well, how can I get in now? And like I was saying, for me, I believe that memes are what's going to usher these other people in, those people that are scared. Like, they need to know that you can do it, too. You know? So it's like, they get in, think, just having a bit of fun, and then they make the money. Then it becomes real. But, like, what you guys were saying, guys, it's very important that you do sell or at least take profits, because you don't want to round trip, like some of us guys.
Experiences with Portfolio Management
You don't want to be the guy that's saying, yeah, you know what? I remember looking at my portfolio at one point, it was XYZ millions, and then woke up one morning or after a week, it was sub one m. Do you know what I mean? That's not the greatest story to tell. And a lot of guys that can say that story, believe you me, they regret every single day that they watch their wallet just go down and down. I remember, so what, my story, or my round trip, was actually with Neil. So did you can. We got to. We got to move along because we got a lot of hands. So maybe land your plane here, or maybe you have a question? And then instead of, like, going into a whole new story, just because we're on a timeline. Sorry.
Supportive Environment for New Ideas
Yeah, no problem at all. I think I just kind of wanted to support what you guys were saying and just say that, yeah, you guys have got the right idea, and this is the right advice that you're giving to the people. That's pretty much what I came to say. Yeah, you were spot on, dude. Sorry to cut you off. I just want to make sure we get to all the hands before Nagato and I got to log off. Sure thing. Because this is a great space, and we just got so many people in here, so. Thanks for coming up, King. And there's another Marcus Aurelius quote that I love, which is crypto negato is a loser.
Questioning the Future of Tokens
Mar, let's go. Oh, no. We go cryptol first and then. Marden. Hi. Thank you for letting me speak. Sorry if I sound nervous. I am, like, really new to this. It's. I know. I was looking on pump fun yesterday, and I come across a ticker, which is cunt for cunt mala, and I just thought I'd share it with you. I'm not shilling. It's just a really low market cap, and I think it has potential with the politifi tokens that are going up and. Yeah, it's. Yeah. How would you define a show, exactly?
The Risks of Micro Caps
It's not a shilling. Do you think. Do you think a show would be something, like, if we could broadly define it, would it be, like, coming on a stage and then, like, talking about the potential of a particular token or something like that? Bro, if we see, like, if we see the name of the fucking ticker and we go together on pump fun now and buy it, we can send it to, like, 10 million market cap in, like, five minutes. So just maybe avoid, like, talking about, like, micro caps here. Right? Okay. Thank you for letting me up. That's all. That's all I'd say. Like, I say, I don't really do this. It's my first time buying from pump fun, and I just thought I'd share it because I think the ticker cunt is, like, hilarious, that's all.
Engagement with the Community
I'm a veteran with that word because my last name. So I was hearing that word, and my dad's british, too. so I've been hearing that word since I was a wee little thing. And, but how about this crypto? Just because I really do appreciate you coming up on stage, especially because, you know, it sounds, you know, you said you're a little nervous and maybe it's one of your first times doing this, and I think it's great that you're doing it honestly. Cause, you'll do it again and you'll realize it's really not that bad and every. It's all love up here. So I'm curious, what, outside of this particular token, like, what do you think of pump fun, like, in general?
Skepticism towards Pump Fun
Because I think it's a very interesting trash. Pump fun is trash. All right. Thank you. This is my first time buying from there, so I just come across it. I thought, oh, I'll buy that because the name stood out to me. But I have seen other memes going off on there recently on x, so I thought, I'll try it. And, yes. So I don't really have any experience with it to comment how, if it's good or if it's nothing. So, basically, let me predict your future. You will get rug pull, like, 99%, but it's okay. But it's okay. Usually that's what happens, like, if you invest, like, in, like, meme coin on pump dot fan.
The Reality of Investing in Meme Coins
But, yeah, one in a million will give you, like, crazy roi. Yeah. Well, good. Yeah. What happens most time is people make a little money on memes and they go play in pump fun and get rubbed terribly. So, yeah, it actually gives crypto a bad name a majority of the pump fund. Yeah. Well, good luck with your. Your micro token. And then I hope you come back next week and you just say, you guys didn't let me shill last week, and now I'm up 100 x, you fucking idiots. So I hope that happens. Micro token. More like micro penis. Well, thanks for having me up, you cuntsen. Well played. Well played.
Wrapping Up the Session
Okay, we're gonna. We're gonna get the. We're gonna start speeding this up a little bit, and we're gonna go to Mar and then weston. Greg Nagaro. Thank you for having me up. I hope everyone is doing great. Oh, man. I'm trying not to laugh. No, the one thing. I do want to comment about it. I think it was a punky that he said about. I don't know, I felt a little bit of the frustration, you know, with how easy apple pay is being used and not crypto. You know, I bashed a little bit of web three like an idiot two years ago, even a year ago, how we're not, like, fully developed.
Reflecting on Crypto Usage
Why isn't it easier for the regular user to come into crypto? Until finally I was educated and. And I've seen it from my own eyes and. And I learned, you know, and I read, you know, and I finally saw what was going on and realized things. And it's built. It's out there already. It's already done. As easy as apple pay to go and buy your favorite meme coin. But, like, everything, you know, it's all money. It's all about the money, and it's what's stopping it. It's regulations. It's pretty regulation. It's built. I seen the dots, I've seen the applications, they've shown it to me, but they just can't get it out there because of regulations.
The Influence of Big Investors
And now that this market, there's money to be made in this market, especially now, you know, Blackrock, the ETF, now is when the big boys are getting in and they're the ones, they're going to push it for, like, an example, like people now, they want a cut, you know, forgot the word now. I'm sorry for that. But anyways, for interest rates, how interest rates gonna get cut now? When the big boys like the Elon musk, the rich people are like, hey, you gotta cut. And why do they have to listen to them? Because they're the ones that put the money for their campaign for either you're a Democrat, Republican, and these guys are powerful.
Regulations and Future Market Moves
They got power, and they're realizing that crypto is big now, when it was, I don't know, $10 billion market cap a few years ago, now that they see this potential to make money, these people are going to push the regulations. And once they're, it's out there and they could break through the laws and all the lobbyists are fighting for us. You know, these dapps that are built already, they're already done. It's going to be easier for them to be, you know, your phone on the, wherever it is, one of the toughest things really quick. And I'll land the plane with, this is decentralized and centralized.
Future Optimism and Regulatory Changes
That's where the war. And hopefully we'll go all not them, all of us together, we could get this shirt, right? Thank you. Right? Thanks, Mark. Always appreciate your insights, bro, on coming through and supporting Wi Fi money. And always unique, interesting takes on the broader market because me and Nagato are just a couple of djen Shillers and you actually bring some good insight. So, yeah, it was amazing, brother. You know what? Like, the girl that came here to shield the pump fun, token, she already left.
Final Thoughts and Closing Remarks
Yeah, well, God bless her soul, man. Let's go to Weston. What's up, brother? Yo, what's happening, boys? Happy Saturday, man. Hope you guys are having a good weekend. Just want to shout out to both of you guys, I appreciate all the knowledge and wisdom and the spaces you guys do. I'm just a rookie here in the space. Been in crypto for a couple years. So I just want to say thank you for. For giving back to the crypto community and just making it easier and softer for the cats behind you guys like myself, man. But, I appreciate both of you.
Humorous Anecdotes
But, yeah, real quick side note, I'm actually fucking on a long drive drinking that exact b twelve supplement. You said not to drink, so fucking thanks for sharing that, dude. I'm sitting here drinking the fucking sewage drinker. Oh, my God. Yeah, yeah, I do. Yeah, stay, dude, stay away from Alani. I'm sitting here looking on the freeway like an a Lonnie, man. You know the worst part? When I found out, I saw it on, like this on a Twitter post that was going around and I, like, the. I had spent the last three weeks, three winks, three weeks, like, chugging celsius and vitamin waters.
Interactive Community Experience
Yeah, dude, I did not know that. So thanks for sharing that, man. But, yeah, you kind of already touched on it. You kind of answered my question. My question was, you know, with, you know, your guys's spaces, you're going to be your guests, will know per se when you guys are taking profits. And for me, being a rookie, like, my hardest thing I'm struggling with to prepare for that euphoria or honeymoon phase of the bull market, q four and q one is my mindset of, like, things will get interesting around that time frame.
Profiting Strategies and Personal Experiences
But, for example, I know in your spaces, you both don't like doing, you know, target price points or price predictions. I'm not going to put you in that position. But, for example, like, you know, render quant. Like, how can guys like me that are new to crypto, like, generate, like a. A price taking, you know, like, target, for example, like, render, like, what do you guys do, like, obviously looking at previous all time highs, but like, how can a guy like myself that's new to crypto really have a plan of, like, for quant or for render? Like, no, going into q four and q one.
Learning From Experience
Like, this is kind of when you should start shaving off profits because I've already fumble fucked a couple meme coins these last couple months, you know, round tripped them. I've made some, you know, I'm just a fireman full time and there's been already a couple that I made my year salary as a fireman in four days. And I'm like, oh, it's going higher. And so I've already recognized, like, Wes, stop fucking around. Get a plan. You two are two that I look up to. So what do you recommend in that regard for price taking and whatnot?
Expert Advice on Taking Profits
Help the man. Nagato, what are you looking at me? Okay, so basically, brother, like, there is not exact science regarding when to take profit targets and everything. You can use ta, you can use some indicators, but you can also use market sentiment. You can use all the normies as an indicator, but the best strategy is always this one. When the market is starting to go higher and you see BTC making a new all time high, Ethereum making a new all time high. Total, two total, three others making a new all time high, you simply slowly start scaling out.
Practical Strategies for Profit Taking
That's the best strategy. Like the same thing you basically do in a bear market, you do in a bull market, but basically the opposite. Like in a bear market, you'd like DCA in the market, and in a bull market, you do the opposite. You DCA out from the market. I think that's the best strategy because like, all the people that they are saying like, yeah, we sell the top, blah, blah, it's fucking retarded. Like, the chances of you selling the precise top are so fucking, like, close to fucking zero, okay? Either you are like, extremely lucky or they are close to fucking zero.
Planning Ahead for Profit Taking
Okay? So in my opinion, just make a plan. Look at the signs, look at the herd, look at ta. Put all those things together, but in the same, at the same time, slowly DCA out from the market. Like, for example, render, okay, now it's like $5. In my opinion, it will go like ten x higher from here. Like, my target has always been like $50, okay? But I don't really want to wait for like $50. So maybe like, you know, now it's at five. If we go back to, like, all time high, we just wait a little bit.
Executing Your Plan Effectively
We go to 20, I will take a little bit of profit. 25, little bit of profits. 30, 35, 40, 50. Then I will keep a moon bag. So if it's gonna. It will end up going higher than 50. I will still have, like some render to sell and then I will take like, the majority of my profits when I see euphoria. But you don't want to just wait until you reach, like, let's say, I don't know, your target for render is dollar 100, okay? I don't say that target cannot happen in this bull run.
Avoiding Regret in Profit Taking
But for you to wait to render, to get to $100 to start taking profit is fucking retarded, okay? Because then you will wait, it will go to $90 and you say, oh, just a little bit more. And then you don't fucking take any profits. And the day after it's like $60. And you say, huh? It's just a little correction. It will bounce back. The day after is like $50. And you say, oh, I'm a bit retarded, but I'm just wait a little bit more. And then it goes to 40, 30, 20, and you round trip again.
Final Thoughts on Profit Strategies
So you have to wait like other, like five years to make your, like, money back or something like that. So just take profit slowly. No matter the coin, no matter if it's BTC, ethereum, a meme coin, a shit coin, whatever. As soon as the coins start pumping and going parabolic, or like, you spot, like some other, like, correlations, like you see BTC breaking Ultima, ethereum breaking Ultima, total two, total three others, blah, blah, you start scaling out. That's the best strategy. Simple strategy.
Preparing for Market Volatility
At the end of the bull run, maybe you want like maximize your profit. Like you won't get the same profit that just selling the top, okay, you will get less profit. But the chances of you to selling the profit the top are slim as fuck. So just DCA out and just relax, bro. That's my view. That was amazing. I was cracking up, dude. I want to be in Nagato's head when he's just like, out in normal life and he does something that he doesn't like he's on a diet and he goes and he like, buys a doughnut and he's like, oh, I'm just a little bit retarded.
Humorous Reflections on Life Choices
But whatever. It's just, it's just a pullback. It's just a slight pullback in my discipline. I'm a little retarded. You buy the doughnut then you put it back, then you end up buying two donuts. Before you know it, you have twelve donuts and you eat all of them. And then you are fat again. Absolutely. Round three, starting with don't. Round three. My g. Don't fucking round three. Just k loud. Fuck. Hell yeah, dude.
Community Appreciation
You guys are both legends, man. Thank you for leading by example in and out of the crypto space. I admire both of you and it's going to be a great couple months ahead. I'm fucking stoked for this coming year. Appreciate you both, man. Have a fabulous. Thanks for your service, bro. And also great question. Brought a lot of value to the space and appreciate you and thanks for coming through all the time.
Transitioning to Bobby
Let's pass it over to Bobby here. What's up, Bobby? Can you guys hear me good? Oh, boy. Yes, sir. Hear me good. Yeah, brother. I can even. I can even see your smile from here. Yeah, that's funny. I want to be the dark cloud in the room. Talk about what people never talk about. What are you guys going to do when you cash out and it's time to pay taxes specifically for the people here in the US there?
Tax Considerations for Crypto Investors
Say that again. We're gonna pay our taxes. No. Well, I won't. New, newer people in the space are not aware of the reckoning that will come down if they don't have that already planned out. Because if you cash out big and you don't plan accordingly, when that day comes, it's gonna take the wind out of your sales. Guaranteed. That's some brother. The government takes the wind out of my cells every day.
Understanding Tax Obligations
Never talk. That's nothing new, my guy. So basically, guys like, I never talk about taxes because I don't have to pay taxes because I'm based in Dubai. So I already took care of that. So it's not really a topic I'm an expert about because, like, when I took care about my own situation, like, I don't. I don't know, like, how taxes are in like any other fucking country in the world. So that's why I don't. USA is 30% short term gains.
Insights on Capital Gains Tax
That means if you hold it for less than a year and you sell, you pay 30% on the profits that you made. So if you had $50, it went to $110. Nope, nope, nope. Absolutely not. Long long term capital gains, your max out at 20% short term capital gains goes back to your ordinary income like you were working a job. So in my opinion, like what? You just have to hire someone that specialize in that seek the help of expert.
Clarifying Tax Classifications
And are you saying that. Are you saying that crypto gains are counted as regular income in the United States and in capital gains tax now they're short term and long term. Once you get to short term, that goes to your normal tax rate. You can say. You can simply google that and. Okay, so how about this? Let's not talk about taxes because obviously I don't know what I'm talking about. I just have an idea.
The Importance of Planning Ahead
You guys always talk about a plan. You know, the. God, no, you're good. No, no, I meant like, that was more of like a pointing at myself thing. I always thought it was 30% short term and 15% long term. But I guess you're saying it's up to 30% short term, depending on your tax bracket, 20% max for short. For long term. Short term, it reverts back to whatever your tax at your normal tax rate.
Engaging in Responsible Financial Planning
That's so interesting. I never heard that. Okay, well, can I add something here? Some people, a lot of people should get informed now. So, yeah, start taking profits. You got a game plan already set up? Absolutely. So, guys, in my opinion, I'm not like, us expert. In my opinion, like, you have two options, okay? You cannot move to, like, another country because, like, if you are a us citizen, you still have to pay your fucking taxes in the US.
Options for Tax Planning
So. Yeah, yeah, those still follow. Yeah, you have two fucking options. Option number one, you seek the help of an expert and you take care of your tax situation. Or you move to Puerto Rico. Because in Puerto Rico you have 0% capital gains and it's the only place where actually us people can pay 0% taxes. And there's a shit ton of hoops that you have to jump through to get to that point.
Navigating the Challenges
Also, there's a lot of bullshit to go to that process that people don't talk about. Yeah. So just. They're not going to make it easy. I basically just set aside, like about 30% in my mind and then I just handle it when my accountant tells me what to do. Yeah, good idea. But, yeah, a lot of people don't talk about it. Everything is all, you know, blue skies until tax.
Sharing Valuable Resources
Can I add. Can I add one thing? Just. I remember. I'll make it brief. I shared a link in the chat thinking crypto podcast. Tony Edward. He's. I'm sure some of you guys know of him. He interviews a lot of different people in the space. He did a interview, 40 minutes interview with a former IR's official, and they talk about crypto tax secrets. They go over, you know, cashing out to stables.
Informative Sessions on Tax Issues
Capital gains taxes. How. Airdrops are classified. I shared that in the chat there. It's just. It doesn't have, like. It doesn't, like, show, like, the preview image. But it's the YouTube link. I put it up in the. In the what? Negato. What are we calling it? Do you remember I taught you a new vocabulary word today? The jumbotron. Yeah, I was gonna let your english lesson.
Engaging with New Terminology
Yeah. What? Megatron? No, that's not right. That's not right. Megatron is a cartoon character, okay? That's a transformer. We have real life ones here in the US. Specifically decepticons. Yeah, exactly. Well played. Okay? So, yeah, if you guys want to learn a little bit more about taxes, listen to Bobby and not me, and listen to that YouTube video up there. Go bookmark that.
Closing Remarks and Future Topics
I think that's all we got for today. Nagato, did you have anything else? I'm not going to cut you off. And I'm also. Yo, this is the last time I'm going to tell you. I'm not going to cut you off. And we're going back to 50 shot after this of whether or not I'm going to end the space during your final speech. But I will tell you today, I'm not going to cut you off.
Reflections on the Session
And I've never broken my word to you, except for that one time. That about something else? That has nothing to do with this. When I told you that I loved you. But what is your recap of today's space? This is a good one. Appreciate all the people that came through. For sure. And what are you going to leave the people with, King?
Final Thoughts and Goodbyes
I think this one was my favorite space so far. Honestly, the vibes were much different. I think also for the fact that Ponky joined it brought a lot of new people. Was really funny. Thanks, everybody, for joining it. See you next week. Gregory. You can go meditating now for the whole fucking day. Yeah, that's what I'm gonna do. Let's fucking go.
Looking Ahead with Optimism
And you better be ready tomorrow, bro, for you know what. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. Let's fucking go. Yeah. Okay. All right, guys. Love you. Follow me in. Nagato and anybody else on stage that you resonated with. We do wifi money every Saturday. Keep each other accountable, keep our head on straight. Don't sell the dips yet.
Encouragement for the Community
Too early for that. So hang on tight. Enjoy the volatility. Go do something outside today, touch some fucking grass.
