Welcome to digital asset news to get top stories and crypto currency digital assets and break them down a bite-sized pieces So today, I'm gonna do a little bit something different. We're gonna use a new type of software and see how this all works out So as so everybody knows First of all, let's make sure the audio is good. That's I think is the most important Sounds pretty good. Looks pretty good. I think we're there Welcome everybody got a lot of people for this one, which is amazing to me now. Remember these are all predictions and this is all financial opinion not financial advice and So some of these things that we talk about you're not gonna agree with and that's okay And some of the things that we're gonna chat about like let's see my man Now Lucas Bradley says the audio is great. Thanks Lucas Edras says sounds good, right like that and then I like this one Nicollet down to it start it started and then let's see. Where is this Chris says Darn, whatever it is. I'm glad I'm buying it at 230 as he's talking about the boys room So just so everybody knows today. It is June 30th. So we know exactly where this is moving forward now We did a price prediction video gosh January 7th and It's had a lot of traction. I think we had about gosh Was Yeah, it was about it was over a hundred thousand views. I know that so, you know quite a bit of things going on and The big thing that people were saying to me was like, hey man Here's the thing. Oh Based on your recommendations. I bought x y and z and I'm like why did you buy x y and z? Did you do your own research? Did you make sure that all the things that you were doing were correct? Did you? make sure that These prices were within your budget and you could do a little bit more Buying and of course it was all no no no. So I just want to make sure that everybody understands How important it is to do your own research do the right things and Don't get you know Overbought I mean, it's it's all about what you can afford and go from there I'm not telling you to pull a ditty and sell everything and then you know You know just live off crypto it doesn't work like that it takes a long time and Yeah, we'll see how it goes Linda says I like this Linda Ball says new dye job. No, I'm still gray right here I'm still I'm still black up top. I'm getting older though. So what are you gonna do? All right, so let's just break into it. So first of all, I Want to share this with you real quick And This is a couple of news stories about where we're going or at least I think where we're going as far as time It was on so this was a article that came up and it talks about how 6 billion ncr opens Bitcoin purchase purchases to 650 banks let me say that again 650 banks there's a lot of banks to get into it. What's going on? So 600 of the US banks will be able to offer Bitcoin purchases to an estimated 24 million total customers And this was I'll just paraphrase this was an end the NY dig deal NCR is a company that works with small and medium-sized banks across the United States I don't know if it's global maybe global and They are there for payment services technology Vendors and everything in between so what they're gonna do is They just said hey, you know, we're gonna help you guys do these things but We're gonna have to help you purchase Bitcoin to offer to your customers and the financial institutions that opt to make the services available will will rely on NY digs custody services So they're not gonna custody themselves. They're like NY dig and my day is gonna be rich good for them And this is really just sums it up the latest buy Atlanta based ncr to capitalize on demand It's seeing from banks and credit unions tired of seeing crypto purchases Made from their accounts to outside exchanges and that's the big thing outside exchanges so Look When we're talking about all these things that are that are happening right now I know it's hard to see because we look at the price every day and we look at the portfolio And everybody's like man This is this is not going up like it should but you have to take a look behind the scenes about what is going on Who whatever would have thought that we would have had banks getting into this so heavily and They would be like hey We want to buy cryptocurrency to offer to our customers because guess what we keep seeing these outflows to Voyager to Coinbase to crack and to Gemini and that's just money out of our pocket where we could be offering those services To them because man We are losing a lot of foot traffic and that's why we're closing closing down our brick and mortar stores So that is just one piece of the puzzle. So just remember that is how it is And then oh, I love this one. Let me answer your question captain Kurt So how much do you get paid to preach these companies? So I don't get paid a dime. No, I don't I take that back I have been paid before From crypto trader tax. I have been paid before from I trust and Also, one stop all domains now everything else. I'm glad you brought this up actually now Everybody else are just affiliate affiliate commissions. So speaking of which, let me pull this up. So So people can know Stop screen Let me share my screen. Oops. I should be using this thing. Aha. Here we are so Kurt answer your question you guys can go here the exchange and wall fees and All the different exchanges and waltz have ever used and you can see from Voyager to Celsius to crack everything else It has a it I just give my recommendation. No, not recommendation. I just break it down about what they offer the interest rates the fees and everything else and it's a plethora of ones that I've Masked over gosh, you know since 2017 and some I recommend some I don't and Some there's affiliate links and some there's not now. You don't have to use the affiliate links But if you do you get twenty five dollars between ten and twenty five dollars Four in Bitcoin when you sign up. So I hope that answers everybody's question great. All right So that's the problem Bobby shouts is here Yes, I agree. So There's a couple more things before we get into the into The actual price predictions and it's gonna make a little bit of sense. I want to make sure that everybody's understanding about where we are right now In this time frame, so if we take a look here and We talk about not the biggest thing that's that's really moves the price these days first of all is whales Little manipulation here and there but also news.  China's been banning Bitcoin since I got into crypto in 2017 every single year.  Well, finally They did their job and they really kicked out all the miners and that's a bummer for the Bitcoin miners It's a real bummer for the Chinese people, but it had to happen and now we can move on So next year in 2022 when they ban it again in 2023 just remember this this nice little meme So you understand and then on top of that? It's also good to note That when we're looking at all the different aspects of Where are we Internet fad When we look about all the different aspects of cryptocurrency You have to take a look back in time to see where we're at And this was an article that's been shared around enough, but just so you know I'm old enough to remember these things where The internet was just a passing fad back the 90s. No one would use it makes no sense Why would we have to why would we send an email? Or why when we can just write a letter Why would we do anything online as far as like registration and document collection? Well, we just go out of the DMV and do all the things. Well, shoot. We still have to do that stuff But yeah, why will we buy anything online when we just go down to? JC pennies We can go out of Woolworth's which are going out of business That doesn't make any sense, but it's the truth and that's just the way that things develop and now here We are so there is this and Then let me stop my screen and welcome in to the show real quick now I'm using a different streaming software So let's see if this if there's an echo and we'll go from there Paul, what's up? Hey man, how's it going? Great? I'm pretty good. That's a nice office Yeah, now you're seeing the the back the backside of Reverend networks Very nice So I was just getting into it with everybody and we're already live just so you know so no cussing like you always do Paul so but no seriously so I Was going with this. I don't know if there's gonna be echo because I'm not using my headphones But I brought him along just in case this is a brand new software. So I'm just making sure so everybody Who's in the chat? Is there an echo that would be important to know? Let's see and then let's let's put some so when his ship she've making me rich. I put all my money into it.  I would take this vice for free. Ah, yeah Satoshi Nakamoto Celebrity in the house says I just staked on meld. Well, great I don't know if we did this this video yesterday, Paul. You're probably busy cranking out your 10th video You probably didn't see it, but but it was we did this it was about meld meld Com and the meld token which is built on Cardano. Basically, they're They're paying off your loans for you by staking it and fees In the Cardano network, it's a it's an ambitious project and we'll see how it works out. That's gonna be interesting. Oh, yeah We'll see how that goes. Okay. So look no one's complaining about the echo So I think we're good and they're not let me be sure. Ah, yeah Okay, I like the new template though. It looks good. Yeah, right check up. I want to show you something check this out Let me This is what I should have done actually There's a new template. Ah, there you go. Ah, see don't forget Dan teaches crypto.com. That's right. 100% free. I can't beat that I'm the king of the shield Paul. I can't I can't stop it. That's what I I gotta go there now I'm beginning to think I need to take a course So so everybody if you don't know this is Paul Baron I'm gonna pull up his YouTube channel. I've actually done before and Paul is he's He's a new up-and-comer. I will say Paul. Why don't you start your channel? We were an overnight success. We started in 2001 No, no, no, but but when he started on my crypto currency How about we started we started talking about tech and crypto in March? Yeah, there we go now tech was on the channel pre but it was geared towards some other categories and then we flipped over to crypto some financial we cover a lot of EV and kind of you know next-generation Innovation as well Yeah, and he is in my list of the top to your tubers always do all the time it's not just because of You know the crypto it's good, which is great stuff But like he talks about EV electronic vehicles or electric vehicles We're also look at tech and there was there was one that was really interesting about those those 3d printed houses Delivery bots and it's like it takes care of the whole spectrum Drones. Yeah, Peter. Peter McCormick was on not too long ago. We had Peter Mack on yesterday Geez, I bet I bet he talked non-stop about Cardano and Ethereum. I'm just kidding. Well Well, let's say probably not that case Peter was good interview though. He had he had a lot to say after Bukheli's interview when he went down to El Salvador Nice. Yeah. Oh, yeah, he did he went down there and met with the president was the president Yeah, with boot with Bukheli himself had a one-on-one Interview it was in his last. I think it was last maybe two podcasts ago. So it was last week and If you had a chance to listen to a lot of interesting things were discussed in that Special on kind of the direction of where El Salvador is going and if you think about all their You know, there are different scenarios there. It's it's gonna be interesting. Oh, yeah, man Yeah, we can go all day about that one. But so just to just think just a quick catch up We talked about let me share my screen the FUD. That's pretty prevalent Yeah, it's all people to remind themselves even when the car salesman tweets.  Yeah, and they're gonna offer up to 600 banks. I think yeah Yeah, six billion open Bitcoin purchases and this is just a start So I just told people just remember where you're at and in history and then on top of that I mean also take a look at the fact that I mean, we're just the very beginning. So I mean All's I can say let me try something real quick That's for sure It is the beginning Yeah, and I think Like this this one kind of sums it up Internet's just a passing fat and I remember I remember when it when it when Internet came about in the 90s I think Paul you do too. It's like this is the same type of thing. It's the cryptos. It's gonna get passed over It's no big deal. It's crashing how many times is Bitcoin died and now here we are Yeah Yeah, that's for sure. I worked for a company that thought the internet was a was a fad company called Microsoft And now here we are. Hey, didn't didn't Microsoft at one point Takeover and was accepting crypto. I can't remember well The their their problem was is that we did not build the The browser because Netscape was essentially beating us to the marketplace and we had not created Internet Explorer yet at the time. We were still on Windows 2.0 in developing that and And Bill Gates, you know, he's on record to say basically he just didn't think the internet was gonna be a thing So listen even the smartest minds. That's why I always say some of these Really smart people who are looking at crypto and are saying hey, it's never gonna be a thing They can be wrong and it's it's been proven time in time out. Yeah, my my favorite example is Warren Buffett going I don't get Google. I don't know why we need it. There's no intrinsic value. We're gonna pass. Yep So that's it and then also I know we've had a pretty junkie Couple of months everybody, but just remember the same thing happened in 2017 Yeah, 26 and 2017 we had some major dips.  So it hasn't been as big as 2017 But it seems like sometimes the bigger the fall or the bigger the The pullbacks the bigger the the upswing so we'll see so much money was made in the stock market last year Who yeah, who is the guy that did the did a did a bunch of shorts made a ton of money Squeezed out everybody. I forgot his name Hmm. Oh Doesn't matter the last thing last thing I'm gonna say is this before we get into the all-important price predictions Which I've already shared with Paul so he's raring to go to say that's it. That's that's impossible is This part Right Here so on this channel just so you know I'm not a big person to to do much in trading or swapping it out and do things I'm just I got other stuff to do and I can't time the market. I'm just not good at it I don't know if you are and I know there's a lot of other channels that are sensationalism And they'd like to talk about this one's gonna explode in a couple weeks This one's gonna you know be right monstrous in tomorrow, but you gotta remember it's really about the to me It's all about the long play and that's why you know I buy land I buy properties Paul's the same way And we're just trying to just kind of set us ourselves up for the future And this was something I shared a couple days ago on Twitter, and it makes a lot of sense, right? I mean if you invest a thousand 37 million But yeah, 237 million in Bitcoin Tesla still would have been a pretty good deal nine thousand Yeah, not Netflix Facebook and remember I think Facebook Google Amazon They're all trillion-dollar companies now. Yep So I mean it's that's that's still not to not too shabby, but remember what we're into There's a huge amount of volatility. However, there's a huge amount of upside, and that's the big thing All right, Paul. So would you do you think we should I don't know Maybe do some price predictions Sounds good to me. Yeah, a lot of things happening. That's for sure. That's definitely gonna leverage of the sin I think over the next few months Check this out. So These are my price predictions. Oh boy For and I'm gonna we're gonna go over all the ones I made in January 7th And how they panned out and also what's gonna happen. I think towards the end of the year again investment opinion on investment advice Here we are. So here we are So here it is and all its beautiful glory Crazy, right? So one seven in the year. Okay Yeah, so here's the thing As we take a look here on the left-hand side I've got Bitcoin on January 7th the price of Bitcoin was 38,000 all those are glorious times, right? 38,000 the whole world was ahead of us. We had no problems and we're like man. This is awesome So I in that point and all these different price predictions are based on a couple different models I use a lot of fractals if they were around back in, you know For as long the longer they were around the more I could overlay and extrapolate some percentages to see where they would actually go Especially with all the different growth that is happening. So I thought well Bitcoin I mean I looked all the way back to the very beginning and I think there's still these things called for your cycles I think it all goes through You know having then an all-time high then a big Reset and then just a little flat and then we just do it again and again again now We're on our third four-year cycle and from what I can see what I can extrapolate with Bitcoin. I think it's I thought I was gonna go to 150 K But with all the volatility and the things going on I can still say okay, maybe that 150 K won't make it and maybe I'll hit 130 K So today's price right now is 34,000 which is even below January 7th price, but that's where I see it Paul, what do you think? way off Little up there, or I could be I'm a little bit more conservative I'm you know, my my predictions have been kind of based on some models that we've been running Here within our own group is is hitting the hundred K mark by end of year But there are some factors again as everybody knows the volatility is based on You know the rumor and then the news that hits so if you've got You know scenarios like Kathy would going up with an ETF and and the number of ETFs that are filed right now Plus also the success we've seen in Canada. We've success. We've seen over. Oh, yeah, Switzerland with their ETF I think that's going to bring in a lot of not only institution Institutional capital but also just a lot of people that have not had a chance To really make it in as a retail investor, you know, because it's hard It's hard for the average person at least in this day and age. It's still hard for the average person to actually go set up a Coinbase Pro account or get on crack anywhere of these exchanges and Start trading and I think that's going to be the big thing that really helps it move along But if this ETF locks in There's no telling where Bitcoin is going to kind of model and of course these little, you know these little steps in the in the domino chain of China moving Our mining scenario, which is kind of solved in a way has kind of solved our problems Which I anticipated to be a bigger problem than it will be now And then you look at where the banks are going because the banks are eventually going to have to move into this And then you have the I mean who was thinking El Salvador in January. Nobody. Yeah, so I don't know. I still am very strong on six figures. I'll take it. You know what? I'll take six figures I'll take a hundred thousand. I have no problems with that. I have no problems with a hundred K now That's this is what I like about Paul Paul is because when I did this this last price prediction Man, I got tore up for 150.  It's gonna go to 300 K. I saw 450 K I'm like maybe I don't know again Investment opinion not investment advice and nobody really knows Paul has me and Paul don't have a crystal ball And if we do have a crystal ball, it doesn't do anything and sure sure as heck doesn't show us any kind of future Plans, let's see. So that's the first one Ethereum On January 7th. It was 1,200 I thousand 110 K. I thought there was so many things with DeFi I thought a lot of I didn't think that The avalanches and the Cardinals and the tasos and all the different Different competitors we're gonna catch up. Yeah, I thought they would just crush it But now we see a lot of different delays We know that e2.0 is gonna be delayed However, EIP 15 59 looks pretty promising and that happens in the middle of July depending on You know the blocks that are produced. So I just I kind of punted on this one and said 8 to 10 K Paul What do you got? I'm actually feeling really good on this one Rob, I think the ETH is one of those things that I have just a love affair for for DeFi in general Yeah, and just where those projects are going and just we've had a chance to talk to a lot of these These founders we've been on with Algorand. We were on with John Woo, which was a fascinating discussion around avalanche And kind of what their mission was But and then you know the guy you turned us on to a world mobile token. That was a very interesting conversation So you see a lot of these layer 2 projects that are really starting to move and really if you think about it ETH being the granddaddy of them all and the other issue is remember these ETFs in Europe If you look at what you know 21 is doing In Switzerland ETH is one of their biggest ETFs as is the Canadians, you know in terms of what their ETF successes have been and I think if Kathy and others whether it's Valkyrie or some of the other players that are really trying to you know Get this ETF launched Ethereum's gonna be a big part of it. And you know who else said something about Ethereum for the first time was was Michael Saylor Yeah, it's crazy. So for a maximalist to even mention that word is Gives me a little bit a little bit more confidence in that particular project and I think a lot of people So I think you're you're in good stuff. You're in good space. I think yeah, so amazing sailor said it You know what I what kind of puts me on the opposite end is Jim Kramer said it. Hey, I like Ethereum Right, I'm like course sometimes with Kramer though. I feel like maybe we should go the opposite way Because we've we have I won't say his name Well, we have an analyst that comes on our network a lot and it's funny because our studio team is and he's great He's a good analyst and he does a lot of great picks, but some of the picks that we've had with him It's it's literally you could just go the other way and you would have won He should be on my channel. Exactly. I can say do the opposite of this guy and then just go that way So I don't know Kramer is I still think Kramer and a lot of the mainstream media are a bit under informed Yeah, and because of that, I don't necessarily watch them as much. I'm always looking for these You know it listen journalism is dead in mainstream media So you don't have anybody really tracing down these projects and trying to understand them and also looking into the credibility of the founders Looking at the project itself and basically just getting your head around this and I think none of what we're seeing in mainstream media is doing the work so In that kind of scenario, you know, I mean he's probably just going with what the flavor of the week is right now Now yeah, of course, but you know what? I mean that but that's that's what moves Marcus, isn't it? It is I mean Kramer still an important character in In markets, especially again, don't want to beat the horse But the ETF business will be on fire probably because of mad money, you know because he's gonna get up and all over this Even though he and Kathy would have a little bit of a rub right now Going and well, you know what? I mean who who watches mad money? Older generations baby boomers. Where's all the money? Where's all them? Well, I mean there's I mean there's there's there's millennials who want to get stock picks, right? No, I think the boomers are all all on mad money. I think the millennials have moved on to crypto YouTube You know shows like yours and many others that are out there that are you know, they're dropping, you know Some great content if anything they're getting people thinking in the right direction So I think aetherium is definitely a good call from 8 to 10. I feel very very bullish on aetherium Yeah, I like that and then now this is from L. He says silo prediction. So This is my original predictions at the very end. I'm gonna show you all the other cryptos that I bought which If you know my story, I promised myself I wouldn't do it but dang it There was just so many deals to be had in these dips So I've got on this one. I got one two three four five six seven eight ten eleven twelve thirteen forty-three sixteen I have another sixteen cryptos and one of those is silo And we're not gonna get into it. I'm just gonna show you what they are, but we'll do the price predictions later on now So, okay, aetherium and then chain like Look chain like blew me out of the water. It was 17 bucks in January 7 I thought it was me with 35 bucks at the end of the year It's it's and when I when I put right here these these little imprendices 1 billion Cardano 45 billion. These are the Max supply that they have so chain like at 1 billion. I thought that's a lot, but I mean Look the all-time high was $52 in April So I'm like why you know, thankfully I really undersold this one. So right now it's $18 Okay, so that's down heavily Than what it was before so I said, okay If it can do that and it is one of those oracles that has to pull on the data And of course we need these for like D5 products actually pulling these these these prices Charles Hoskins and talks about it all the things I mean even like pulling and things for like weather and loans and things like that So our chain link is still the granddaddy. I think it's gonna be used everywhere So I said 75 to 100 and that's just me Putting it out there because I was wrong about the first part Paul. What do you got? You know chain link has been one of those that we've we've Really got behind and I just think they're In the first part of the year first six months I think it was a bit of a sleeper and it's really kind of started to We're gonna get some free open field which is very interesting because they they've got a great project Which I think in general is what's driving this but the bigger thing is they have a lot of very similar Scenarios to the XRP army and what I mean by that is because we study so the way our Technical analysis goes is we look at you know We use trade the chain for sentiment on Twitter and then we use a tool that we've been building for about eight years that helps us Scan about where we're up to ten different platforms right now where we're scanning basically much like speech IQ type stuff Yeah, so it's if you look at that and you do crossover audience analysis meaning Who's buying doge and who's buying chain link or who's buying XRP? Who's buying chain link? Or who's talking about buying it? It should be the case. Yeah, and what you see is crossover with a few What I think are a few very interesting coins and and projects one is XRP chain link and v-chain all have very similar Makeups in terms of their investors which are very rabid so It doesn't surprise me that them, you know that that that project is doing so well Yeah, I remember when who was it? It was Zeus capital or Herbert was that was trying to put all that flood on Twitter And I and I I don't see the ads anymore But man they really went hard on them and it did the exact opposite all the different people who are in the chain link What chin in the link marines?  That's fine. Let's keep buying and we'll short squeeze you out of here Yeah, if that's what they actually did so it like it was amazing and when we see this time and time again With these communities look at XRP super strong. Yeah, so yeah, that's it I would say by far still the strongest community out there XRP. Oh, I mean, there's there's numerous channels that only talk XRP and that's it So, okay, so we got that let's take a look here oops Theta so someone just said that t-fuel is gonna go live for staking in a couple hours I mean look at t-fuel. That's one of my holds. We're gonna talk about the next one later But Theta, I mean it was two bucks on January 7th Yeah, I thought I was gonna go $10 and I curse I was wrong because I was too conservative But here's the thing about being conservative. I love about being conservative is this People never get ticked off of me for being for being low But they get sure get ticked off when I don't hit those numbers and we'll talk about Voyager in a bit So but Theta I said we'll shoot. I mean Went to $14 at 650 today I can see it going to $30 especially with all the different partnerships that they have going on the people behind it And then there's one I want to I want to say CAA for the NFT market Yeah, because they have all the different Hollywood players in place and all those people They're gonna go for the NFTs and actually I'm gonna be part of that NFT market for Theta it'll be rolling out I want to say this week or next week and People who pick up that NFT first of all when you purchase it, it'll be going 100% the charity and second of all you'll be getting a either a couple different things a One-on-one with me What do we do like a portfolio evaluation another one will be just a group of people getting together like in a zoom private zoom meeting So that's cool. Take a look at that for Theta when that comes out. I just wait for them to tell me what what's going on Okay, yeah, what do you think about this Theta? So 50% down from it's all-time high I'm a little weaker on this one, but it's four different reasons and that is so we I travel in a group that We call the diamond circle and it's we get a lot of inside on Especially all coins. Yeah, and people that are playing and there's some big, you know There I wouldn't call them whales, but there's some big money moving in but what what I like about it is You know, this is a group of about 50 people that have really good Pulse actions. They they're really watching the markets very closely they have a lot to in terms of connections within their own network and Theta has been one that people have kind of stepped back from here recently over the past 30 days So I think that in itself is probably going to contribute to a little bit slower upswing I don't necessarily see that it might not get back to its all-time high But even it's all-time high would be great. Does it make it to 30? Again, I'm gonna I would go a little softer on that versus going up to 30 for theta Okay, so we don't now you get on T full that fuel and that's a different that's a different bird Yeah, I think and see that you know like because There's a theta mainnet launch of 3.0 coming on June today, right? Yeah today So I thought that T fuel would hit a dollar. It only hits. I mean, I think it's 47 cents I'm around there down. Yeah, but it was at 65 at some point. So we'll see how it goes I think it's got legs me and Paul don't agree, which is good So hopefully hopefully one of us is gonna be right. That's the one of us Yeah, or you know, it's funny neither will be right. Maybe I'll go to zero or maybe go to a thousand. Who knows? All right, so Celsius. Um, I Have my misgivings on on Celsius, but again very strong community So it was $6 a January 7th. I thought I was gonna go to 20 My probability was like I'm pretty sure it's gonna happen. Yeah, and then the all-time high I went to eight Yep, or 792. So I was right. I mean just for the half of the year Now it's at 605 again. So yeah, what's interesting by this one? It's the same price almost from January 7th, right? So I can't there's too many things going on and there's a couple of fud stories going around Yeah, which James over at invest answers is gonna have Alex machine see on and he's answered these on Yahoo finance I'm not gonna get him to there because I've realized in my 72 years in this earth or I'm just kidding But I know that it's just not a good idea to before we have all the facts in to talk about it and Machines he's already talked pretty solidly. So I'm gonna say 20 to 30 and just go with that I'm kind of punting on this one. Yeah, I think with with Celsius I'm still looking at just the cross-competitive's especially on these, you know, these Platform tokens like this it to me. There's just so much movement in the space And I just I don't know I think people are getting lured in in different ways now They could do some things to help stimulate that that would help Especially toward the latter part of the year But again the way they peg that and the way they're utilizing Their network to drive it I'm actually very bearish on on Celsius. So and some of it is the fud But but also I just look at it's the competition the competition is strong And it's getting stronger in this space and some people that I think who are not there right now, but We'll be there in six months to a year. They're gonna cause some disruption in Celsius business model Yeah, and it's that's the whole thing and I forgot it's about that Competition because I mean Celsius is it's great for getting that yield, you know Alex So I'm like I'm banking yourself But there's new players coming in can they keep that edge? Yeah only time will tell but man It's it's like Peter Thiel says, you know, I don't want to have a bunch of competition I want to go into place where there's not much at all or none and just dominate and I can totally appreciate that All right, so we got that there Let's go back to Stellar stellar. I'm gonna kind of glance over this one It was a 33 cents. I've only owned two bucks. I Didn't have much faith in it, but it did hit 77 cents for an all-time high now. It's back down to 26 cents So again $2 and the one one of the things I like about Stellar is that like you have us DC That is on it. That is on the actual Stellar's blockchain they all work with IBM still so they got a lot of different. I Think not competitive advantages, but advantage is just in that space. So who knows Paul? What do you got? This is an interesting one to me because I get a lot of back channel on this one You know just within the community people Especially on Twitter the DMs that I get on different projects and we got turned on to the XRP team From just some of the videos that we were doing the same thing is happening with Stellar I'm getting a lot of people who are involved in the project that are back channeling to us So it's kind of like those inside sources. They kind of say now. Can you trust them? Okay? I mean their creds are real. They're the real people that are doing the project So they have some things in the works right now that could be interesting if this becomes reality and You know just from you know just again back from the sources that we're getting and there's a few projects that are like this Where you get these back channel scenarios where people are, you know, a lot more loose lips I should say and and Stellar is one of them. So yeah, I feel like it's a little stronger than where you have it But isn't this always the way Paul the things that happen behind the scenes is what moves everything. Oh, there's no doubt There's no doubt what's all right now at Cardano Don't get me going on that one Then you've got polygon the projects that are happening there Solana. Oh, she's you know Yeah, that is moving in some of these projects is phenomenal. Here's the thing man. There's so much great stuff happening I just wonder sometimes I feel like this just the vacuum gets sucked out of the room Yeah, because they're there's just so much action in the market It reminds me of the dot-bomb era when when in Silicon Valley was I was there at that time and we were oh my gosh I mean the number of startups you think startups have been going crazy in Silicon Valley over the last five years That was nothing. That was a Walmart fire compared to what we saw In the dot-bomb era, it was yeah, it was insane Reminds me a lot of about that you got to watch out for the scams.  Well, come on down and let me show you the way like oh Whatever and then Steven Campbell. I need to answer this. It's not pre-recorded. This one's not pre-recorded right now But of course when you're watching when people are watching this later, it's pre-recorded. So but right now We are live just doing this my friend Paul Paul Barone from the Paul Barone network Good person that actually says my name correctly I mean Baron is the is the way I pronounce the English pronunciation But yeah, you know like Baron's magazine and the newspaper and the Financial Times, but But Barone is the is the way to say it. Yeah, but you live in El Paso. So you're down there. Yes exactly, that's the main reason and then Omar the Lopez Said it correctly. Hey guys, you skip the Cardano and I did. I'm sorry about that. I was just going too fast So Cardano, this is a good one. Thank you. Omar Cardano, I've got it at a nice it was 32 cents on January 7th. Remember those days? Those are sweet days Those are good days man. And then I said well Three bucks by end of year and my probability was about eight because I knew there's a lot of things going on the pipe I had heard rumblings of these smart contracts coming into play. We didn't really know when now. We know it's August and You know, we went up to an all-time high of What do we have $2.32 so almost hit my goals now? We're down to $1.30 and I'm big on Ethereum and I'm big on Cardano.  Some will be bigger slices. Some will be smaller So the Cardano, I think Conservatively five if I want to push it seven and that's what we got Paul. What do you think our amplification numbers on Cardano are? I would say in our top five in terms of how Projects are performing and the way that we look at amp, you know amplifications. No pun or Versus amp the project but amplification we use an algorithm that looks at Trying to predetermine how Traction starts on social. So when people are talking about something you get a certain level of scores kind of like what trade the chain Does on sentiment analysis? We do this on a thing called amplification and it looks at basically a project projects a cone for Either you're gonna see a lot of action or at least a lot of people moving in that direction and Cardano has a lot of amplification right now So I don't know if this is something just kind of this pent up expectation of the projects coming, you know like Alonso and some of those projects coming to fruit, but right and It's close. I mean I and Charles is kind of moving the the goalpost a little bit But I think with what the community is expecting This could actually take off Especially around Q3. Oh, that's the one that I'm really interested in watching. This is one that I think has a real potential to fly yeah, I agree and Just so everybody knows if you're looking for to Stake your Cardano just go to Dan teaches crypto calm in the very upper right-hand corner It says Ada staking and there's a video that explains The risks how it works how we do it and how we compare against other Stake pools, so go ahead and check it out. What do you think about staking overall when you're teaching your your course? Do you find a lot of people that are trying to get more information on how that's working or are people kind of backing off from it and Looking at just pure play So I think in the beginning people were scared about staking and I was too especially when each 2.0 rolled around And I'm like so let me get it straight So I got to block this up for We don't know how long and we don't really know the rewards. You know, it's probably gonna be pretty good But we're not for sure and there's this thing called slashing. I'm like, I'm gonna piece out of this one I'm not gonna do this and I just didn't want to do it and then I was like, well, what about with with polka dot? Well, if you want to do it on your own, there's that but there's also I'm like, well, I can kind of stake it over there on Kraken, okay, and then from when people would ask me about it Like well, how does how does this all work? I'd you know, give them a basic I even did a couple of videos over there on theta how to stake theta pretty easy but even when I stake theta and There was problems with the different interface and it just sometimes wouldn't work So I was kind of giving up on things until Cardano came around and it was just so Simple and that's that's the big thing about it. And then the other big thing is that there's no slashing Penalties and on top of that it never leaves your wallet. So it's like right there.  I'm out of here. That's fine. And then they they move it over to Hashoshis Stakeable and and it's much better or you know, they move where they want to and that's and that's exactly how it should work It's a click of a button that you can use three types deadless your Roy or it a light Makes a lot of sense. I think when I look at my My data for my website that is like the third most popular page on top of the basics and Then investing module in the members area. That's gonna pull. Well, there you go Then people are really intrigued and interested in that. So that's good. Yeah. I mean, I think so and then like if you think about it like Talking about cashing out because that's that's what everybody wants to do want to cash out at some point if you if you cash out those are unfortunately a tax event and capital gains and all that stuff so You know, if you can do a little a little of this and then maybe do some loans on milled Why not I'm wrapping in too many things Paul wrapping too many things. Okay, so let's see here Where are we polka dot? So polka dot ten dollars on January 7th? I thought I was going to 50 if when Tom was 50 47. I think in April or May now, it's not a 15 bucks I think polka dots gonna be huge. There's so many things going on with it There's so many people so many projects building on polka dot and again It's Dr. Gavin Wood who came from aetherium mafia. He's just one of those eight nine ten people that came out So I upped my auntie and said 75 to 100 Okay, well, you definitely go okay, so I'm softer on it, but I like the team at polka dot definitely I would say this is a top five project team in in all of crypto Yeah, so just that in itself makes that a great value just because of the innovation I think that they're gonna and and the other thing with polka dot is The partnerships and the deals they're putting together are getting very intriguing and the potential for them to kind of move into The next layer of what their strategy is if you look at their white paper and kind of what they're trying to do on a long term play Definitely a strong one. I would still I'd probably be on the on the lower end of that at 75 Yeah, or you know because I'm feeling you know, and I own most these coins I mean I've polka dot is one of my bigger investments right now Yeah, I thought like like for this one. I'm like, you know if it just does what it's supposed to do and gets those Those different products to build in and gain momentum it can do this Yeah, but the but it's it's all a big thing of like can they actually Execute yeah, and that's what all businesses come down to it. Can you do it? So we'll see no big challenge is gonna be Solana Yes, and that's one of my on the next one, which we'll do in another video That's one of the ones I picked up because you can't ignore Solana. Okay Scooter says I think a lot of us need this video I think so too because we've gotten kicked in the teeth way too long and it hurts So let's let's dare to dream right? We're coming out of this man. We're coming out So then Tezos is one of the ones where again smart contract platform, I don't know if it's gonna win I said 265 on January 7th. I thought I was gonna 20. I went to 758 which wasn't too bad Yeah, now it's back down to 277 roughly the same thing I don't see a lot of action and I I thought $20 at the end of the year now. I'm saying 10 I have very little faith and Tezos. I'm sorry I don't really get many articles about what's going on how the foundation is doing Maybe some people will of course in the comment section tell me how wrong I am, but I'm gonna downgrade them to 10 Yeah, I would I would agree on that one. I look at this as a project That's a co-tail project meaning it rides along with and pegs against other projects If other projects do well, it may get a little bit of a co-tail ride You know to 10 bucks, but I would be very soft on this one right now Yeah, and B chain is one. I'm kind of softish on to it was a three cents. I was gonna go to quarter So much potential so much potential I mean look, I mean if we're talking about tracking things like when I was in the medical industry It was sure been great if we could attract a lot of these different medications that I came through all these different manufacturers Yep, and then we could have recalled them quicker instead of having patients die So just on that part. I mean and then other people will talk about well, you know about fourth or you know counterfeit something like that Sure, you know, whatever right so I thought I was going to do a quarter I went to a quarter in the middle now it's at eight cents I'm just gonna punt and go 40 cents because it's they're doing a lot of things with the Chinese government as I understand it And I just don't I just want to step away from that You know Rob because they haven't revealed this their company that is in China. They've approached us on Talking more about what they're doing which essentially is and we've we've kind of been back and forth with them about this but the the point is is they have 24 24 projects that they're going to approve and and some of these projects. They're actually quite labeling Meaning they don't want the Chinese people to know which project it is That doesn't even invest in it to it. Well, I'm it's I think it's either one that they don't want the rest of the world knowing They're utilizing that blockchain Attack or that particular project for something, you know, whether it's logistics medical you name it shipping transportation But they're they've approved or are approving 24 projects that will implement Into China and that's the interesting thing when you look at what China is doing And I have an inkling that that this project may be one of them And there's some reasons they're just if you look at their ties to China and kind of look at their developer team And just some of the people within the organization. They're sharp Yeah, they are and if that is the case then I don't know that it will ever come out and because the Chinese, you know the PRC is gonna be They're gonna be tight-lipped on what projects are gonna be revealed as to what they're doing mainly for For them, it's they don't want the spies, you know, try to come in and circumvent their programs Well, that's what they do here. So what are you gonna do? You didn't hear that you didn't hear this on you didn't hear that on this channel. Don't don't ban me. All right So here we are I gotta agree so man if I'm low on this that's great because I got a lot of I've held the chain forever Yeah, so if this goes up great, I'll be glad to be wrong Glad next one Eos I Said it was a 3040 cents. I thought I was going to 30. I didn't have much faith in that It did go to 1328 and I downgraded this one as well to only 15. I don't see it really doing much a Lot of people will say how wrong I am and I could be but I don't really have much faith Yeah, I'm downgraded on on Eos as well Have never owned the project so It's one of those I keep trying I always go back to it. I mean, it's always on the list for just let's go check it out See what's happening anything recent has there been any major changes on it and that's the thing some of these projects get a little stale and Once you get that then nobody's trying to partner up and those partner programs are what expands these projects and these Projects need those things. They're basically the lifeblood of how they're going to move next We're gonna say I mean if you can imagine whoever is going to win the key elements in Africa in Yes, you know the countries of Africa are going to be huge that that in itself Cardinals got the You know, they're kind of in the pole position right now to do some things over there So but yeah, this one Eos is just not Not our action. Yeah, yeah, and maybe we're wrong, but I don't see it. Okay, so let's see what else we got Each of you's uniswap. This is the one eyes. I thought it was gonna go to 20 bucks it was six dollars and I thought on January 7th, it'll go to 20 bucks the end of the year and what it do $44. Yeah, $44. So how wrong I I was so wrong now it's 1731 so again, I've got a I got to upgrade it to 60 and the one of the reasons why Because I was like well, there's so much competition with Dexes. There's so many things coming out. However Everybody seems to go to uniswap. I mean even like like ones that have come out like like zero exchange So exchange is pretty good. You can use a lot of difference And you use a Binance marching avalanche some other different ones, right? It's cheap, but people still use uniswap, and I think it's just what you get comfortable with because it's easy Very cool here. Here will be the difference with uniswap if If we see there's two things that could happen here One is structure. Capital starts moving in which is going to give us more retail investors and more traders Yeah, which is which means we're gonna need more traffic on platforms like Unis So it can go one of two ways that you could end up with these new people the noobs coming on and going with some of the new projects that are doing essentially the same thing or They jump into uniswap and that in itself will start to move the needle in terms of just volume So that's that's kind of way I look at it right now is we're getting ready to see a new harvest of retail investors once these ETFs go and play and also I think next year 22 is gonna be a big year for You know mainstream adoption and with that happening then they could be in the right place at the right time It's kind of like the AmEx, you know, the credit card industry and then and then so everybody think of it this way Like if you're in America Like me and Paul some other different countries You can't get a lot of tokens and your only option is uniswap now if EIP 1559 comes in and does what it's supposed to do and those fees go down to let's say it goes from $10 to 20 cents, would you be more inclined to use uniswap? Oh, yeah So that's where I think uniswap wins out and it's all based on that and even shoot even if not I mean people are still using it. So what do you know, right? Let's go to everybody's favorite when they like to beat me over the head Which I don't care Voyager 29 cents and I had made a prediction is going to 30 bucks and people thought I was crazy And I am a little crazy and I thought it's gonna go this it's for probably a nine Well, I went up to seven bucks, which is pretty good 20 cents to seven but then it tumbled vastly and there was a lot of different reasons one They didn't have the infrastructure in place They didn't have the customer support in place their loyalty program got pushed back and just a lot of delays just like business happens and I stopped promoting Voyager or even talking about him even my my exchange of wall fees But I showed them beginning right I took them off as far as recommended because I told Steve the CEO I go man You guys aren't ready And that was it he goes give me 90 days and he did it and they said they went from 70,000 people to 1.6 million the earnings report said how much they have they're on track for 2 million The token swap is supposed to happen today as everybody remembers Which means you get 30 days until the loyalty program goes into effect Then on top of that hopefully Canada comes in and hopefully the EU comes in because they bought the out. What was it? LGO exchange over there France, so I Still have hope that's gonna do well, but it's all hinges on a couple of things like we just talked about That's all that's got to happen 30 days loyalty programs got to go into effect That's real world utility debit card has to come out fees have to go down because of the loyalty program They have to move into Europe and if they do all those things. Yeah 30 bucks is low Paul What do you got? I'm kind of with you on this one I'm curious though has Steve mentioned to you any indication of a desktop app. Yes, I've seen it Desktop version I should say, you know, and it's smooth. It's real smooth. So what is that? When is that coming out? I don't know, but I know if they've got it It's in beta and they're from what he says because we want to release it as soon as possible We got to do our checks and balances. Yeah, because you get a lot of people who I mean don't get me wrong There's a lot of people that still like to trade on mobile And it's you know, if you get the Robin Hood crew, that's you know, that's the only way they roll So that I understand true, but you get a lot of these older millennials to Gen X Which is a big a population not only that they have a lot of cash to invest They love this website of things are not as keen on these app products that Versus the millennials and obviously eventually will be Gen Z So I think if they can get that out because Coinbase if you think about just Coinbase by itself That is a seamless though. It's expensive as heck and that's where Voyager wins They're gonna win huge in going head-to-head on just the regular Coinbase, you know website Approach, it's a good point ease ease of use winds out over everything Because I mean look everybody who's watching this video. You're early, you know You can go to the unit swaps you can use the ledgers You can you can even do yield farming not a big deal, but for like my brother He's a moron and he can't get it My my sweet mom just can't understand and like like some people I've talked to that it's like well, that's tough They need something simple or simple and that's when we win. So yeah, that's that's I grew it Paul in this one Yeah, all right So Lastly, let's talk about Ave Bitcoin cash and XRP So I've a you know defied Yanni and and his crew looked like it was gonna do pretty well There's a 122 I thought I was gonna 2000 because it because first of all, you know them the Smack supplies only 16 million. So I thought just there's gonna make it do pretty well It went to 652 which is you know a nice nice return now just when it then went back to 221 So it's above the January 7th It's about a third of what it used to be So I'm gonna downgrade them to go to 1500 because there's so many So much competition out there. I don't know if they can make it if they can keep going But I mean Yanni himself is pretty good. He's got a great crew, but Paul what he got with this one anything I'm feeling pretty pretty good about Ave. It's one of those coin projects that I do think has a lot of upside to it I'm a little softer on my if I were going this direction for end of year I'm more in the range of a thousand So it not as much of a growth and I know a lot of people are probably gonna hate me on that one But it's one of those projects that is just you know I have to get really invested in these and and when I go in and do deep dives on these projects Which is like my past time Right now on these and then run them by you know a group of people that I find one Developers and then also other investors that are doing some big moves and they look at it If they've never been in it and they look at it and say, hmm, you know They kind of shake their head or maybe they give you a couple of pushbacks on it And here's why kind of thing I get that a little bit more with projects like Ave. So yeah Yeah, I can see it and then there's only so much. I mean there's a lot of room But there's only so much room exactly. Yeah, but we'll see how it goes. I could I hope I'm wrong I hope I'm wrong. All right, and then to finish up this little fiasco bitcoin cash Bitcoin cash I got into bitcoin cash because of one person one person Ashley too my friend George and mostly digital Dave over at crazy for cryptos And I could see I could see why because he talks to and even like kim dot com talks about this He's like look everybody wants low fees. They want it super fast They want it simple just like we talked about so bitcoin cash could win over that However, we just saw with El Salvador. I mean there was a nice little piece on vice Where they go to El Salvador They go to bitcoin beach They buy some things and it's super fast and super cheap because of strike Jack mowley's company. So with this one. I thought okay, 41. I thought I was going to go to 8,000 Didn't even hit close to that was 1500 On this one today. It's 500 bucks. I'm going to say it could might be low 10x to a 5k But that's really pushing it Paul. What do you got? I'm say I'm in the same position right there. I'm kind of right on your number at 5k. I think this is one of one of those that just Has the potential we'll see I don't own any but I have so many of At least both friends and also people that I know that are in this and sometimes I get a little fomo on this one You know for not going in on on this one as much as I should be You know, I mean I've got a little bit but I don't have a lot So we'll see how it goes and then uh bc in the matrix says you're better off with litecoin and a couple people Why no litecoin? I don't I don't get litecoin now Landon castle who is the uh driver for voyager nascar He is big.  Thanks so much for sticking with me xrp xrp I didn't even give a price because I had no idea because the sec lawsuit It did even with the lawsuit paul. It went to a buck 77. Yeah, that should tell you something right there I mean this this army is real With with xrp if this thing gets even a draw or gets loose From this sec situation Ripple is gonna just on it's gonna unhook and only because of the arm I think that's the the thing holding this back is just the Uncertainty, you know with what the sec is going in but I think this is One of those things and a lot of people still still think you know that this is one of those cases that the sec Is stringing out because they don't have a good position to really slam dunk this Which if you look at the the sec wins Over the past decade don't don't just assume they these are slam dunks They have lost many projects and cases like this. So it's not something that is Hey, this is just going to go away So I don't know. I feel very uh optimistic as as mccormick told me was it um skeptically optimistic or No, something like that. Hopefully I am hopefully optimistic pessimistically Mystic if you want to go down that route, right? So sure Yeah, so and then so like I think I mean xrp can go anywhere. What happens in like a month xrp ripple comes on and says we settled We're going to pay an undisclosed amount and we're going to move on and it's going to be labeled as a Not a security as a utility token. Yeah, then they're going to move they're going to move right over to The next layer of sec and that is we're getting ready to file for ipo Damn right. That's exactly what's going to happen. So that's what we got off.  We're going to do this later. I'll probably do this with alex because we're gonna I'm what's going to happen is I'm going to have uh, we've got some other people coming into the fray As far as uh, to go over these price predictions. Uh, hashoshi being one of them. We've got uh, Guy's gonna do a little something from coin bureau We've got uh, alex and some other and uh, mike the investors coming on But I'll go over this later. But these are the other ones that I own I already show this to paul and he's like what? Yeah, you own all this stuff. I'm like, yeah, I own all this stuff I own basic tension token storm x t fuel avalanche silo Sentokin, that's a big one. Yeah, so ganna huge polygon swiss board iota bt t and that's only because I'm like the investor Filecoin mana bijibite meld and wmt. I don't have these yet, but I want to talk about them how big they can be Yeah, is that when they'll is that the proposed Period in which they're going to go up tge that the the token generation event's going to happen at that point So paul real quick and I'm going to pull up.  Oh Well, uh, solana is a big one. I still I'm still big into believing what avalanche is doing Um, I like silo silo is very intriguing to me Um, obviously polygon. That's a slam dunk to me that I mean I hold that one I like this whole concept when we had The people on from world mobile token man the project is very interesting to me So that's going to be interesting an interesting one to watch when it comes comes real Can you imagine what that happens? Well, you know, I told him when we interviewed him.  That's what it comes down something that just is not making a lot of people happy That's it. So paul. I want to say thanks for sticking with us for the full hour That's a long thing, but I thought it was just like some people said I think it was pretty much needed and just so you guys, uh, as you hopefully you can take a look at paul barone's YouTube channel, I have the link in the description.  Just so everybody knows It's real deep dives technicals And then of course, I have a I have a theory paul What's my theory? My theory is this I think you've got a lot of insider information Oh, is that where you're going with this? That's that's what I think it is and we already talked I already talked to alex I'm like me you would paul got to sit down and tell all the stories because you've got some connections That's what we would have to we would have to do that in a sealed room in undisclosed location I Exactly it would be fun. That's for sure All right Well, everybody, thanks for stopping by if you like the video give it a like Subscribe also check out paul's uh channel you can search paul barone network I think I have in the description This was a new program I use so I don't know if the data carried over but that's it paul any last words of wisdom for these guys? No, no, I think we are in for the rest of the bull market. It's uh, it's approaching soon I feel I feel it the ground is rumbling the ground is rumbling Awesome. All right, buddy. So thanks a lot and we'll see you in the next one. Take care
