The episode opened with humorous banter about Brad Garlinghouse supposedly offering $50M to buy All Things Crypto. The conversation quickly shifted to major market-moving news, primarily the report that Ripple offered $4-5B to acquire Circle (issuer of USDC), which was rejected for being too low. Speakers debated whether the offer significantly undervalued Circle given the massive growth potential of the stablecoin sector, now exceeding $241B in total market cap. Additional topics included the US-Ukraine mineral deal as leverage against China and a step toward peace, macroeconomic data (GDP miss offset by strong personal income/spending and flat inflation), stablecoin jockeying by Tether and Visa’s new AI commerce agents, XRP’s integration into MetaMask, and a lively discussion on blockchain layers and AI’s role in the ecosystem. The show blended serious industry analysis with the usual chaotic, fun ATC energy, including a surprise appearance by the AI voice Junie defending Dave. All of this is discussion, not financial advice.

[0:00:28] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: Touch. Touch. Touch. Touch. [0:00:31] Dave @DCBK2LA: I'm feeling myself right now into that space. Touch. Touch. Touch. This is gonna be my... It's gonna be my model. [0:02:02] Dave @DCBK2LA: Thank you. No credit. Goddamn. Cops out. [0:02:19] Dave @DCBK2LA: No? Nobody's here? No? Nothing? [0:02:38] Dave @DCBK2LA: Bro, it could be worse. It could be a rabbit. [0:03:03] Dave @DCBK2LA: Alright. Alright. What's Alright. Up all six of you? Welcome to another edition of all things crypto. Ladies and gentlemen, Brad Garlinghouse has officially put in an offer to buy all things crypto for 50 mil. Myself, cool, and that that have been mulling it over. We don't know if we wanna sell just yet. Obviously, like, we care about you guys. That's how much we care. Yeah. But they said if we throw in Landy, we might be able to get, like, 50,000,000 and, like, $6, and we were like, fuck it. Maybe we just do it. Let's go. Yeah. I was feeling myself after that space. You know, you gotta be able to laugh at this kind of shit. It is what it is. The same way Cole came on here. It was like fucking mantra 60 k. Like, we've taken hits this month, man. It is what it is, but we roll. We roll on. We keep coming. We show the fuck up. It is what it is, man. You know what I mean? So we have each other, guys. Wee. If that's the we that's supposed to get me through these markets, I don't know what the hell. Yeah. I don't know how we're gonna be... How we're gonna do. But cool. What's up? [0:04:13] Kool @koolcryptovc: Hey. What's what's up, guys? How you guys doing? Happy Wednesday. [0:04:16] Dave @DCBK2LA: Hope you're [0:04:16] Kool @koolcryptovc: doing okay. Lanny, what's up, bro? I see you're traveling the house. What's up, guys? How you [0:04:21] Dave @DCBK2LA: guys doing? I'm ready for the show, man. Let's go. I'm ready. Let's do it. Yo. Where... Did you hear this mic, Lanny? Like, yesterday, it wasn't this mic. I don't know if that's the car mic that kinda, like, is going. Like, this is the good mic. Like, whatever phone this is cool. [0:04:34] Kool @koolcryptovc: Yes. So so it... It's two phones, man. The the Android some days, the iPhone some days. It's it's either one, man. I just... [0:04:42] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. Which one is this? Which one is this? Android or iPhone? This is the iPhone. It's iPhone. Yes. Yesterday was Android. Nice. Oh, yeah. Yeah. The iPhone is good. It's Gucci. Gucci. Gucci. Okay. Landy's coming back up. I'm probably going to rug. Shout out to Chris and the Emblem Vault Boys. I had a livestream with them yesterday with their agent AI agent hustle, which was really, really dope. These guys put together some really cool shit. So, Chris, shout out to you, man, and, obviously, to Jake and Adam. I had a a really, really cool time with you guys just seeing what you were building and and geeking out last night. So super dope, man. And, yeah, Landy came through too. Landy, wasn't that fucking crazy yesterday? Like, the the... Like, this agent they put together? [0:05:23] Landy @CryptoLandy: Yeah, man. It was pretty awesome. I was I was I was kinda, like, you know, asking some questions and got some really good answers also to, like, what the capabilities are currently and kinda where things stand. Because, you know, there's a lot of different agents that are being built out there. This is nice and slick. I liked, you know, just asking questions and getting answers right away. Right? Like... And the the way that the platform is built with the Vault integration and and kind of... I I just... I was impressed. I was very impressed. And I've seen a lot of this stuff recently, and I haven't seen anything that's, like, put together like a like a product like this. And and I was genuinely surprised and encouraged to hear some of kinda what's coming up in the future as well. So that was a really good really good stream. In fact, my, my kid was sitting there watching me... Watching it with me, just staring at your faces. So it was, [0:06:21] Dave @DCBK2LA: too close, though, man. Too close. Y'all gotta switch up that day. Like, I got on, and I was like, woah. Hey. Yo. [0:06:27] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: Yo. Y'all are right up on that screen. I was [0:06:30] Dave @DCBK2LA: like, wait a minute. Let me let me do... Let me get the touch up appearance over here really quickly, and thank you. That shit was way up close. I was like, my gosh. I tell Adam and Jake to chill with the with the the up closeness. You know? No. Was good shit. Good shit. Good shit. Come, I see you. What's good? No credits. Builder was cooking. Trav, d, I gotta charge my phone now that I see you. Angel, what's good? Blockchain report, what up? AMP, what's good?, Carrie, what's happening? I love seeing y'all here. Good shit. And everybody else that's obviously tuning in. Big news. Big, big, big news while I go get my charger. Fucking XRP out here flexing on people, man. But I'm still trying to decide. I was chatting with Junie. I'm like, Junie, is this a good deal for, like, for Circle or what? Like, they said they wanted to go public. Like, they were trying to go public really fast. Right? So XRP, I mean, unofficially, I haven't seen anything official, apparently has made a bid to buy out Circle. 4 to 5,000,000,000. I have no idea. I don't know whether to make heads or tails of this shit, To be perfectly honest, I see why. But is this undervaluing, overvaluing Circle? Like, where are you guys out with this? Cool. What do you think? [0:07:49] Kool @koolcryptovc: Yes. Wait. You said XRP is trying to go public instead of getting involved. No. [0:07:53] Dave @DCBK2LA: No. No. XRP... Apparently, rumor... Rumors are going around that XRP made a 4 to $5,000,000,000 bid to buy out Circle completely like USDC. Woah. Yeah. Oh, wait. [0:08:04] Kool @koolcryptovc: Is that speculation that's actually happening? I mean, it's... [0:08:08] Landy @CryptoLandy: I have some details. Yeah. [0:08:10] Dave @DCBK2LA: Go ahead, Lin. [0:08:10] Kool @koolcryptovc: Go for it. Go ahead, Please go ahead, bro. [0:08:12] Voice G: That's crazy. [0:08:13] Landy @CryptoLandy: Woah. So they made a 5 to $6,000,000,000 bid on the IPO, and it was soundly rejected by Circle. Now the door is still open, though. And, from the looks of it, it... So they bid to acquire Circle, and it was at a 4 to $5,000,000,000 valuation. Circle rejected it, but there is still some speculation that they might have counteroffered for a higher value. There is no confirmation of that yet. And in fact, some of this is is just based on some... I don't know. It it doesn't seem to be sourced, but then there's others. It's coming from Bloomberg as the original source, but I couldn't find where Bloomberg was sourcing it from, whether it was financial documentations, like offers because it is an IPO. Right? So they were offering to buy them out through the IPO, and I don't know... I can't find the documentation. So it's still kinda up in the air. That's why there's a lot of speculation surrounding it. So I think we might, you know, maybe be in for some more concrete details soon. But from the looks of it, it does sound like Circle rejected that particular offer that is being floated out there for 4 to 5,000,000,000. [0:09:34] Dave @DCBK2LA: Look. So cool. Here's the story. Was on Watch Your Guru yet. Like, Landy just said, Bloomberg was the origin... Like, they're they're citing Bloomberg. Says what could be a major shakeup of the industry? Ripple has reportedly offered to buy Circle, the issuer of the USDC stablecoin. Indeed, the company proposed a complete takeover of the company for an offer of around 5,000,000,000 according to a Bloomberg report. The offer was rejected. Let me get this fucking ad out of the way if I could. That would be sweet, but apparently, I can't. The offer was rejected, for being too low according to sources. Moreover, the report notes that the XRP issuer is still considering another offer to acquire the stablecoin firm. In late twenty twenty four, Ripple launched its RLUSD stablecoin creating direct competition with the USDC issuer. I'll say this. Like, these motherfuckers are smart as hell. We talked about... We genuinely talked about this here. We said he who controls the stablecoin market, like, really controls almost everything I wanna say. Right? Like, I saw just the other day, Tethr minted another 2,000,000,000 on Ethereum. No big deal. But, I mean, this is, I mean, this is kinda crazy. It says the ongoing growth of the stablecoin industry has been undeniable. The total market cap of the asset class has officially surpassed $241,000,000,000 with favorable digital asset regulation being at the forefront of incoming US policy. That should only continue to grow. Tether's USDT offering continued to lead the way. Two of its biggest competitors came close to a game changing merger. Specifically, Ripple has reportedly offered to purchase USDC stablecoin issuer in a $5,000,000,000 bid that was rejected by the company. I wanna... I want... Let... Let's speculate for a little bit now. Right? Like, does this actually val... Like, undervalue or overvalue? Because, like, we were reading stories where it was like, yo. USDC going public. Like, they're better run to go public, like, you know, in terms of right now. But you think they're making the right decision? I mean, I don't know. Like, this... Like, the fact that they turned it down that fast, this should be something that you should definitely consider. No? No. I I... Is it... [0:11:40] Kool @koolcryptovc: Is the undervalued or overvalued? I think if if it does happen, I think it's undervalued. I think it's undervalued because because you guys you guys remember. Right? You... If you look at USDT as as as an example, Tethr is more money than Blackfork. How how many employees do they have? Not that many. So if you if you compare overall... Look at Tron. Tron is destroying the game right now because of of their ties to using the the the Stablecoins. Right? So Stablecoins is the is the gateway into... And to to connect web two to web three. If you wanna... If if if you don't take money out of crypto, you have to take the... Use Stablecoins to to get out to get into the the banking system. And so that's the reason why every other news that we're hearing is countries are are trying to get get their own Stablecoins. I mean, I would say CBDC or whatever, but it's it's a massive, massive industry. The potential is a lot bigger than we we could ever imagine, man. And then you guys... Look. I have to remember. Our industry is still so young. When things blow up and companies and countries are using the... These... They they have... This having their own... Those stablecoins, it's game over. We're talking about trillions of dollars being transferred on chain. So I... It's... To me, it's on the value. And if XRP could put this shit off, if if it doesn't happen... Man, I swear, if if one regret I have is I didn't go all in XRP years ago. I I I did it. I really did it. I went all in into EAT, and the moves XRP is making, Jesus Christ. I'm... They are... I don't know, man. We'll see. We'll see what happens. But... [0:13:20] Dave @DCBK2LA: Cool. Listen listen to the numbers. Are ready? To these numbers. The Ripple RLUSD stablecoin has a market cap just above $316,000,000, while Circle's USDC has a market value of 61,700,000,000. And Ripple is the one making the 5,000,000,000 offer for Circle. How wild is that? Like, that's crazy. I think they... They're gonna wanna just entice, essentially, like, the executives to be like, look. Fucking just, like, just... Like, we have the cash right now. Like, why are you gonna go public and do and do any of this shit? You're gonna have massive competition. Right? Like, especially, like, when they go public, every other bank is now gonna be launching. I don't know. I think this is something they really, really need to consider for sure. Landy, you agree or, like, what what do you think? Undervalued, overvalued? [0:14:10] Landy @CryptoLandy: Well, obviously, that was a lowball offer. That was a, like, insanely lowball offer. But, you know, I I understand the reasons why. You know, if they feel like Circle might be in a a tight position, for instance, the margins are pretty thin in terms of operating capital, that could be one of the reasons why. I just don't... I don't see I don't see a deal there. And so I... In some respect, like, I almost feel like it's it's an attempt to grab headlines, and then all of a sudden on the other side, push the XRP Ledger stuff. Right? Because we've now seen that that they're... They have their EVM bridge up and running and, like, all this other stuff. It almost feels like to me, it is a marketing ploy because you have to... They had to have known they were gonna get rejected on that kind of an offer. And if they really did counteroffer, I'd love to see where that kinda went. [0:15:12] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. Interesting. I guess we'll see. Let's see. MetaBeast, what's good, man? What's going on? [0:15:18] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: Hey. Hey. Just got out of your other space. Sorry I was late. [0:15:23] Dave @DCBK2LA: No. You're good. You're good. You're good. Anything you wanna chime in on this USDC Ripple news? [0:15:29] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: I don't know anything about Circle, so I have to look more into that first. [0:15:34] Dave @DCBK2LA: Copy. Yeah. They're they're the they're the issuer for the USDC stablecoin, the number one competitor to USDT to Tether. And we just debate... We've been debating on this show. I mean, my my outlook for them is, like, I don't think they have anywhere near as lucrative a business as Tethr does. Obviously, like, Tethr is literally the most profitable company on the planet at this point, you know, diversifying into a million different things. Yeah. I I don't see... Yeah. [0:16:04] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: And Tethr's the one that... With the most controversy behind it. Right? [0:16:08] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Exactly. The the attestations where we're like, hey. There's never been an actual audit. Do they have cash, treasuries, like, corporate notes, like, bot? Like, what exactly is it that's backing Tether? But every day we see, you know, just to... Like, forty eight hours ago, I saw $2,000,000,000 in USDT was minted on Ethereum, and it's like, okay. Cool. Yeah. It's becoming just, kinda commonplace now, which is come... Kinda wild. Yeah. I mean, I guess I guess we'll see. If anybody else obviously has any takes on this and kinda wants to come up and chime in on the whole, you know, Ripple circle... What... So what what do you guys think they come back with? Like, what do think the next bid that they come back with is? Because, obviously, they... They're gonna come back. Do you think they come back $7.08, 10,000,000,000? What do you think? [0:16:52] Landy @CryptoLandy: Dude, they gotta go big or go home. They'll never even have a chance. Like, you're... You probably got players in the game that would be willing to go up to 50,000,000,000. There's... There... It... Because it's already got the infrastructure. It's already [0:17:06] Dave @DCBK2LA: 50,000,000,000? Yes. Bro, come on, Landy. That's crazy, dude. $5.00. [0:17:13] Landy @CryptoLandy: Yeah. Look at how much value they have locked. Right? [0:17:16] Dave @DCBK2LA: So Yeah. But they don't really make money. Like, that's not... It's not like a... Like, they're they're not like [0:17:21] Landy @CryptoLandy: It's a it's a future play, though. Right? [0:17:24] Dave @DCBK2LA: Because The old people are big? Yeah. [0:17:27] Landy @CryptoLandy: I would say that the... I mean, if we... I don't think they're gonna do a deal. I I really don't. I mean... But they either go big or go home. I don't... I think that that would be, like, a point at which they'd be like, oh, okay. Sure. Let's do this. Because then they can go and just build a competitor. Right? Just... Okay. Change management. Let's go. Genius act on the way. Let's go build with states. Right? Like, you know, there's a million different directions they could go with that kind of capital. I just don't see coming back at, like, 10,000,000,000. When you look at the future for stablecoins, I just don't see it. When you... And and I think that Cole said it perfectly. When you compare, you know, where USDT is and how much money they they rake in, the opportunity cost, it has to be high at this point if you're already established. And I would consider USDC established. I'd consider Circle established at this point even though it has not captured a ton of market share away from USDT. They've definitely gained it, but not not to the extent I think that maybe they wanted to. But the world's gonna open up with the with the Genius Act, and we know that that might be... Well, we don't know. But that's more likely going to be the first bill that gets passed through congress if I had to bet on it. There's probably a polymarket up on it. [0:18:48] Dave @DCBK2LA: That's a fact. Yo, Trav. What's good, bro? [0:18:56] Trav @trav_4211: What up? What up? [0:18:57] Dave @DCBK2LA: Hey. Yo. Hey. Yo. [0:19:02] Dave @DCBK2LA: I don't know what's happening, but, yeah, we we had a little wires... Little wire crossing. Trevor, what's good, my my brother? [0:19:14] Dave @DCBK2LA: I got the mightest touch. Everything that I touch mutes everyone. [0:19:20] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: Yeah. Exactly. [0:19:21] Landy @CryptoLandy: Yo. You gotta do the... [0:19:23] Trav @trav_4211: There we go. Hey. There There he is. What up, guys?... [0:19:27] Kool @koolcryptovc: You. What's good, my bro?... Up, Chad? [0:19:29] Trav @trav_4211: Not too much. Hey. Just excited about that, man. The amount of capital that's gonna come in with stable coins of free flowing, boy, hold on to your butts. [0:19:39] Dave @DCBK2LA: Facts. Hold on to your butts is right. What do you think about the the the ripple ripple bid? You think it's gonna go a lot higher? Like, I mean, yeah, this... Mean They [0:19:48] Trav @trav_4211: don't have no choice. They have to. Like... But that's that's interesting, man. Ripple is... They... Look. They're creating a lot of noise, man, with all the moves they're trying to pull off here. [0:20:00] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. I mean, I guess the way... I mean, it's a... I see the play. It's a very clear play. Right? Like, if they're able to pull this off, like, they now become powerhouse. Right? Like, SEC case is gone. They now become, like, number two stablecoin issuer, right, on the planet, and it puts them right back in the race. And to me, with the way in which people are talking about Ethereum and all this other shit, like, if they have the relationships in place, it's like, you could just talk because, like, if you're the big chip stack at the table, you just start scooping everybody else up. Right? Like, this is what's gonna happen, right, with all these small exchanges. You see these big exchanges just come over and be like, come on. We're gonna roll you up. We're gonna roll you up. We're gonna roll you up. We're gonna roll you up. And that's how they just become bigger and bigger and bigger. And you use that big chip stack to just keep growing and growing and growing. And these guys are not fucking stupid, man. Like, they see this opportunity. I think, like, the the the Circle guys are... Would be smart, but I think the Circle guys got something else cooking. You know what I mean? Like, they're in with, like, Brian Armstrong, Coinbase, and I think there's just too much, like, ancillary stuff that's probably out there that we just don't know about as well that they're probably gonna see a massive windfall on as well too. [0:21:10] Trav @trav_4211: Like, bro, the stable coin game is gonna change the game as far... You know, it's this space. Like, the amount of value flowing around when all of this stuff, like, actually settles. Like, bro, like, I don't... Any of... None of us can even imagine what's about to happen with all of this. [0:21:26] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. It's gonna be wild, man. Buckle the fuck up, bitches. Yeah. Good shit, Trav. Alright. What else do we got cooking? Let me see on watcher guru. Oh, excuse me. The US and The Ukraine just officially signed the mineral deal. Landy, what's this mean for us? [0:21:46] Landy @CryptoLandy: It means that, we now have, a mineral deal in place to hedge against, any kind of negotiations with China. So it's leverage. Right? This deal being done, obviously, we know behind the scenes what were... What what were we seeing in the news? Right? The news was, oh, Trump's capitulating on tariffs, and then China comes out and they start doing deals on certain tariffs and stuff like that. No one says a word about it, but, obviously, it's a negotiation. So the news media isn't getting what they want what they want, and they're definitely not gonna get what they want on this because this is leverage in the in the commodity sector. Right? And and, obviously, it's a reconstruction deal as well. It's not just a mineral deal. So this is, this is the Trump team exerting control within Ukraine. We've seen this playbook before. The US has been in control of, Ukraine since about 2014, and this just furthers... Further solidifies that through a deal like this. Obviously, I think that the good outcome of this is that this is signaling that there has to be peace around the corner because Trump had mentioned he's not gonna broker a deal between the two countries unless the mineral deal's in place. This is all part of... Where this is all wrapped into the trade war. Right? So I think it's a positive. We don't have details on the deal, but I think that this is now gonna... You know, things are gonna start to fall into place regarding the Ukraine war as well on the other side of this. I think that no matter what side of the fence you fall on, that we just want people to stop dying. Right? And then, you know, we'll figure out the the minutiae after the fact. But it... It's a win, I think, for the Trump administration, and I think it's a win for, you know, people who are anti war. Right? I I don't wanna see war, so I wanna see peace over there. Good to go. Let's see if he can continue this, in the future. And this actually plays into GDP numbers that everybody's talking about today, but they're ignoring really important stuff that happened in in terms of month over month releases that we can get into later, but this is a good deal. I think we're probably gonna hear a lot about this deal. Right? Because the deal maker, as he's branded himself, is going to be touting this. So we don't have details right now, but I'm sure we're not gonna hear the end of it for a little while here. [0:24:16] Dave @DCBK2LA: So listen to what just came across the wire also. Right? So not just now, but... So the the Ripple story hits the wire four hours ago. Right? Like, Ripple offers to acquire Circle, stablecoin issuer, Bloomberg reports four hours ago. Two hours ago, USDT announces that they are going to be... They have plans to launch a US focused stablecoin this year. So you see now, like, this jockeying of position. That's wild. Yeah. Like, I mean... Yeah. That was on Whale Insider too. So you're gonna start seeing these these behemoths now, like, start jockeying for position, and it's gonna be really interesting to see how it plays out. And also North Carolina House passes bill to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve, making them numero dos. [0:25:01] Landy @CryptoLandy: Dave, can I can I get the obligatory dad joke in here because I'm [0:25:05] Dave @DCBK2LA: your dad? [0:25:06] Landy @CryptoLandy: So, obviously, Tethr is making a g... This is a genius action. So, you know, this is clearly a lot of genius in the room, a lot of geniuses talking with each other, a lot of geniuses taking acts and and putting them into action ahead of a possible vote. So there is your dad's feel of the day. I'll get that out of the way right now. Sorry, Trapped. Didn't mean to step on you, bro. [0:25:33] Trav @trav_4211: Oh, look. All good, bro. Like, the freedom that this kind of thing is gonna allow us people who are well established in the market already, like, bro, nuts. [0:25:43] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. And I mean, there is jockeying of position going on right now like crazy. Visa launches stable coin based crypto payments across Latin America. We just got done talking about the Mastercard news. Right? Like, this is what we're gonna see. Like... But I think this is good for crypt... Like, for us as the as the consumers at the end of day. I want Visa and Mastercard battling it the fuck out and lowering their fees to try and appease me and essentially say, bring your business to Mastercard. Like, use our wallet. Like, use our card, like, with your MetaMask wallet. Like, don't use it. Like, don't use the Visa one. Hell yeah. More. Cheaper. Go. [0:26:19] Landy @CryptoLandy: If if only I had alpha to give on this stuff. [0:26:23] Dave @DCBK2LA: Don't don't announcement of announcement me, bro. I'm... Like, it's a long... [0:26:27] Landy @CryptoLandy: Like, come on. Announcement of announcement. I literally can't say anything because I'm NDA. But what I will say is that when things are announced, you're gonna see an unsurprised little puppet over here just puking gleefully. [0:26:41] Dave @DCBK2LA: You're already doing that, by the way. [0:26:43] Landy @CryptoLandy: Oh, shit. I am. [0:26:44] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. Listen. It's fine. Sunny d, like, sorry. Just step over step over the the the rainbow puke. What's up, Sunny d? [0:26:55] Dave @DCBK2LA: I don't hear Sunny d. Does anybody else? [0:27:00] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: He shows as a listener. [0:27:02] Dave @DCBK2LA: Sunny d is a speaker, but he doesn't have the brightest future. Oh, he's doing a quick look. Oh. [0:27:10] Landy @CryptoLandy: Oh, I need I need him to brighten my day. [0:27:14] Dave @DCBK2LA: Brighten my day. He's got the mightiest touch. I just shout it back to you, Sunny d. Let's go. Oh, and other another news, XRP now supported and recognized on MetaMask. Only took fucking fifty years, but XRP is officially on MetaMask. [0:27:31] Landy @CryptoLandy: Yay. For all those MetaMask users wherever they are. And what do you use? Not MetaMask. [0:27:41] Dave @DCBK2LA: He's at everything, but I'm not even gonna give you another one. I don't know. I would... I thought it was a cop out MetaMask, but I mean, he's like... [0:27:47] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: There's a million different solutions. I'll I'll use magic Eton wallet before I use MetaMask. [0:27:54] Dave @DCBK2LA: You were talking all that you weren't talking all that shit in the last phase when Michael was up on stage, were you? Uh-huh. [0:27:59] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: K. So why would that be, Landy, if I may inquire? [0:28:05] Landy @CryptoLandy: UI UI UX stuff. That's that's the main reason why. They've they've made improvements, though. I gotta give them that. I... If I've been forced to use it, like, it's either that or WalletConnect. It's like, oh, I'm fucking... I guess I'm using MetaMask, I guess. Here we go. Let's let's pull the ripcord on this. How many transactions do I have to sign in a row before I actually get something done on this network? That's basically where I've been with that, but that's true of AnyWallet. Good for them. I'm so happy they've got x... Finally, they've got XRPL via an EVM bridge. [0:28:45] Dave @DCBK2LA: Good to go. But I have great news, guys. Like, this is actually really, like, good news. So today was Kaito on steak day, and your boy got his steak fucking Kaito bag with the quickness. I [0:29:04] Dave @DCBK2LA: mean, do it out of one wallet. Right? Like, listen. $800 is $800. I got another fucking, like, $2 that is coming out. I'm not telling if you [0:29:13] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: listen your pictures. [0:29:14] Kool @koolcryptovc: Can you tell the audience what why... Because a lot of people, they won't get what what what just happens. Like, you know, tell them next thing. Then what is this? [0:29:21] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. So if anyone who has not been following my... My MacBook was hacked last week, hence, all of my hot wallets taken over, passwords, the whole nine yards, completely fucking drained everything. Quick. Quick. Quick. But the funny part is is when you have, like, you know, some staked assets, sometimes these lazy motherfuckers, they don't have scripts for stuff like this. Right? So lucky for me, I still had a few thousand bucks in, like, in staked assets across, like, a couple different wallets. Today was one of the set... Like, you know, how you unsto... I had some kites. I had about 7 or $800 staked of Kaito in this one wallet. So seven days ago, I essentially went in, looked around. [0:30:07] Landy @CryptoLandy: And and, Dave, that was it. There was nothing else. You have nothing else staked. There's nothing to look at. So you got it all, and congratulations, Dave. I'm glad that you got that out of the way, and you were able to unstake and outrun those motherfuckers. And it's a good thing that there's nothing left to get from any wallet ever. [0:30:27] Dave @DCBK2LA: So I just like... I like taunting them, man. Man, fuck these guys. You know what? Like, I got 10 and another... No. I don't, motherfucker. Like, you you all stole [0:30:35] Landy @CryptoLandy: all my Right? It's more like a $100, but it's it's not the point. [0:30:39] Dave @DCBK2LA: But... Yeah. Like, guys, like, that's what I'm saying. Like, I had to do the quickness because, like, we've been playing this... Yo. It's kinda crazy how I've been playing this game of cat and mouse with these dudes because at one point, like, I opened up, like, one of the wallets. Right? Because, like, we're... We we both look at, like, we're... Like, whoever it is on the other end. At one point, they had... I don't know if they sold something or they moved money in, and they moved, like, a $150 in. Right? And I saw that really quick, and I was like, oh, shit. Let get me that $150. Right? Because I obviously have another wallet, so I'm like, boop boop boop. And I and I took the $150. Right? It's like, well, fuck you. Like, you don't fuck me? Fuck you. [0:31:13] Landy @CryptoLandy: You know [0:31:13] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: what I'm saying? [0:31:14] Landy @CryptoLandy: Arb it [0:31:14] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: back from them. [0:31:15] Dave @DCBK2LA: Bro, I literally stole it back from them. [0:31:17] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: Spent a time. [0:31:17] Dave @DCBK2LA: Bro, that that, bro, that let off a series of events. If I show you guys, like, my ether scan... My base scan, these guys were selling, like, a dollar 75 NFTs. I shit you not on base accepting offers just to fucking stick it to me, like, just to be like, yeah, you piece of shit. I'm gonna sell every single thing in your wallet. Right? Like, bro, Travis, it was fucking crazy. But, like, I keep a lookout now. Like, I'm seeing, like, what they have, what they don't have, and I'm looking through all of my other... Because, there's still some NFTs in there. Yo. They... Landy, they did not take my sub 100,000 fucking inscription or any of my rare stats from fucking... That I have on the having block from back in April of last year, bro. [0:32:04] Landy @CryptoLandy: You know why? You know why they didn't take those? What? Because they can put them [0:32:08] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: up in the marketplace and nobody can buy anyway. There's no value. [0:32:14] Dave @DCBK2LA: They were like [0:32:15] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: there's fucking ruins. These. [0:32:18] Dave @DCBK2LA: You know, like, when you go into your experts and you see, like, $400, and you're like, oh my god. They didn't take everything. And then you're like, wait a minute. I wanna sell this. It's like, is no market to sell these ruins. It's like, [0:32:26] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: oh, fuck. There's no liquidity. Nobody's buying. [0:32:29] Landy @CryptoLandy: Oh, are you buying? Even... They're just stuck. You're like, yo. I was gonna pause anyways. [0:32:34] Dave @DCBK2LA: You're just stuck, man. You're just stuck. But, yeah, man, shout out, like, win for the good guys. You know? Little wins. You know what I'm saying? I also won the pitch contest. Come on, guys. Like, little by little, we rebuild. You know what I'm saying? [0:32:49] Landy @CryptoLandy: Oh, yeah. Keep stacking those wins. [0:32:53] Dave @DCBK2LA: The dubs. Yeah. Man, fuck those guys. Dude, I know it was only a $150, but stealing that $150 in USDT felt so good. Like, it was just like, fuck you, bitch. Like, I got your $150. [0:33:07] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: I don't know what [0:33:08] Dave @DCBK2LA: you did or how how you would... Like, I don't think they sold something. They moved that USDT into the account for whatever reason, and I was like, give me that shit. And I saw a failed transaction right after it, and it was just like, fuck you. God. I'm so petty. It is so You [0:33:26] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: keep just going to [0:33:27] Landy @CryptoLandy: a gas war [0:33:28] Dave @DCBK2LA: over the Yeah. I see. Bro, was so, bro, I was so today because, like, I did the Kaito thing, like, two minutes before I went on, the space with Ascar. Right? Because that's when, like, the seven days was literally up at, like, $4.45. So I'm like, okay. I gotta get this ready. Right? I gotta I gotta get the base ETH ready to go. Right? Like, I gotta, like, hit unstake. The second it gets in there, then I'm shipping the base ETH so that it ships out. Bro, I didn't know that you can genuinely drain to zero every single penny. Because, like, you know, when you send normally, like, a gas thing, it's like, oh, you got 30¢, 40¢. It's like, alright. These motherfuckers literally made it a point to be like, oh, you wanna fucking transact on base? There's, like, $0 in ETH... In Base ETH. So had to be... Had to do with the quickness. And I think they're across the globe because they come to they come to life at, like, eleven, 12:00 at night. This is crazy, bro. [0:34:23] Landy @CryptoLandy: You get a... Yo. You just can get some... Get a security expert that's just to start footprinting everything they do and track it back to an account and then IP addresses and then show up at their house. [0:34:33] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. I swear, bro. Like, sometimes I find myself, like, writing on the notepad on the screen because, like, I didn't get a new MacBook yet. And, like, I'll write on the notepad on the screen like, hey. Fuck you guys. Don't you wish that you would... Like, you know what I mean? Like, I just [0:34:45] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: It syncs it syncs to the notes Yeah. [0:34:48] Dave @DCBK2LA: Bro. Like your [0:34:49] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: account. That's awesome. [0:34:50] Dave @DCBK2LA: There's literally a notification that pops up every five seconds that says this Mac can't connect to iCloud because of a problem with your iCloud account, and then it has you to open the iCloud settings, and then it asks you to put your password in, and they want your iCloud password. But it's like, I don't give a fuck. Like, okay. I can do this all day. I really can't, but whatever. It is what it is, man. Anyways, let me be a little humble and fucking... You know, let me just chill the fuck out. But that $150 felt good, and my Kaito fucking wouldn't felt good. Alright? So let's fucking go. Wins for the good guys. What else is cooking, kids? What's what's what's coming across the timeline? [0:35:24] Landy @CryptoLandy: I got you. Because this is something that, I I I see it everywhere because Kobayase letter is very popular. This morning when GDP numbers came out, it was a miss at point 3% under when we were expecting a point 3% growth quarter over quarter. So they went through and made a big thread about how terrible things are, and now rates are spiking again because people are selling bonds. And then that immediately reversed because... Well, either their engagement farming, which you... Look. They give out really good information, by the way. But it seemed a little farm y seeing as they knew that personal income and personal spending were gonna be coming out as well as PCE, which is an inflation metric, was coming out from month over month. Well, even though GDP missed, we had an increase in personal income and a... An increase in personal spending, and we had inflation remain flat, meaning it was no gain, no loss on inflation. So it was zero. And so we had two beats, and we had a miss, but the miss was actually a positive thing on the inflation portion. So we're still in a phase where now they they accurately pointed out that Powell's in between a rock and a hard place. Because if there is going to be rising PCE, which we didn't see this month or for the previous month, month over month. But we're getting increases in spending, which, by the way, is the main driver behind GDP, and we're seeing increases in income month over month. If this persists, well, then we have this weird mix of, like, you have to balance if there's any job loss versus the the, the potential for the increase in, inflation, but we're not seeing that right now. So, essentially, this leads me to believe that we're going to see, the Fed sit on their hands until their, you know, their time frame for when they originally said, like, hey. We are gonna cut basically beginning of q three and then sometime, you know, either they end the q three or in q four, which would be two cuts. That's why you're seeing flip flops from everyone in the research, macroeconomic research world. They're just all over the place. They're they're going nuts. And one of the biggest things is they focus in on numbers like the GDP number while ignoring the other things because it's really good for driving traffic to websites, to posts, and stuff like that. So just keep that in mind. You could still get really good information, but understand that there's a lot more going on that plays into this stuff, and it's going to happen over the next two weeks. Right? We have Powell coming out within... I think it's the seventh. He's gonna be talking about the economic data. And and, of course, we also have numbers coming out the beginning of May that are gonna be running into that all the way through the second week of May when we're gonna see PCE numbers again, and all kinds of PPI numbers and a whole bunch of other stuff. It's going to be reflecting the current the currently implemented tariff situation, which is what everybody's focusing on right now. But I think if we start seeing deals, these might be a very temporary thing in the numbers, and the Fed sticks to their plan. They cut June time frame sometime, which, by the way, is not inherently bullish. Because just cutting is not, quote, unquote, quantitative easing. Just cutting frees up capital for low... On the lending side, but that... That's not QE. [0:39:14] Dave @DCBK2LA: Is Trump smarter than Powell? [0:39:16] Landy @CryptoLandy: Mhmm. I... Well, I don't think it's a matter of who's smarter. I think it's a matter of... Powell has to see the numbers on his spreadsheet meet the criteria that he wants. And the Trump administration, while being very boisterous and loud, are going to direct the money flows and the metrics via policy to make those numbers fit. That is my theory, and I think that has already kinda laid that out there. And I think that Behcet is actually very, very smart. You might not agree with him, but he is a very smart guy. And I think that he's he's really the mastermind behind all this anyway. And I think it's a Bassett Powell thing. And guess what? They meet every week. So it's not like they don't know what's going on in each other's heads. [0:40:08] Landy @CryptoLandy: So, yeah, Trump's just gonna be loud on on True Social. [0:40:13] Dave @DCBK2LA: Would it be called QEE? [0:40:15] Landy @CryptoLandy: QEEE. Yeah. I don't think we're gonna see that. Maybe balance sheet expansion and then QE, but we'll see. [0:40:24] Voice E: QE. [0:40:25] Landy @CryptoLandy: Yo. If they tighten again, good luck. Have fun, everybody. [0:40:28] Dave @DCBK2LA: That's what she said. [0:40:30] Landy @CryptoLandy: Menifee, what [0:40:31] Voice G: do got for [0:40:31] Landy @CryptoLandy: us? I [0:40:35] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: wanna know what this layer three [0:40:36] Dave @DCBK2LA: shit is. Wait. That's a random comment. What's this layer three shit? What layer three is it? Layer three on blockchain. Which layer? [0:40:47] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: You got layer one, layer two. Now there's layer three. [0:40:49] Dave @DCBK2LA: Right. But which one? [0:40:51] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: I just... In general, what... What's the deal with layer three? [0:40:56] Landy @CryptoLandy: What's the deal, though? [0:40:58] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. It's a good question. That. When DGN chain came out, everyone was like, what the fuck is this? Like, why do I wanna be on DGN chain? Like, what the hell is layer three? I think it's a great question, actually. Like, yeah. I'm a leave you brainiacs to fucking tell Meta Beast what is [0:41:11] Landy @CryptoLandy: layer Meta Beast, we found out yesterday that we're on web six already, [0:41:17] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: so I don't know what layer three is anymore. [0:41:21] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: Well, I... Because I even inquired as to, you know, how many layers can it go, and it can go with many. But what AI anyway is telling me is up to about layer six. And it seems like some of them tend to be redundant, but my... What I'm understanding is layer one is your your... The base dealing with transactions and security. So correct me if I'm wrong on any of this, please. At some point Yeah. [0:41:54] Landy @CryptoLandy: Final settlement on layer one. Yeah. [0:41:56] Dave @DCBK2LA: Okay. [0:41:56] Landy @CryptoLandy: And We're building a cake. Just remember, we're building a cake. [0:42:00] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: Oh, I didn't know that. [0:42:02] Landy @CryptoLandy: It's all... It's just the cake references. When you're talking about layer one, two, three, it's literally we're building a cake. And what is the cherry... You know, the icing and the cherry on top, that's gonna be layer four, and then maybe the cherry's five. I don't know when we get to web six or web seven, but all I can tell you is web three, typically, when people are referring to that, is some sort of a layer that makes all of the other layers underneath it transparent to the end user in terms of UX UI and basically chain abstraction, one click, all that kind of stuff. That's the context that I've heard it in, but then I hear others that pitch it in a completely different way. [0:42:40] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: Seven layer salad? [0:42:42] Dave @DCBK2LA: Hey. Seven layer salad. [0:42:46] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: I don't know. [0:42:47] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. So Go [0:42:49] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: ahead. Sorry. [0:42:49] Dave @DCBK2LA: Go ahead, Luis. No. No. Go ahead. No. No. Go ahead. So here here... Here's what I was gonna say. Right? So, like, yesterday's conversation when I was listening to, like, to Jay and and Landy who great amazing conversation yesterday, by the way. Like, it was the... Like, that's the type of shit that, like, I really... I wanna have more of those conversations in here. Right? Like, Bitcoin versus AI. Like, those are conversations that I think people are not having out here, and I think they're the most like, it's the it's the lowest hanging fruit for us to, like, genuinely debate. And Jay was the perfect guy, and I feel like, Landy, you were the perfect fucking Bitcoin. I gotta be able to, like, go at each other with, like, with this. You know? So... And I think people genuinely need to hear those, by the way. But in regards to, like, the layer three shit, you heard Jay saying he's like, you know, he's very AI centric. Right? Like, there was very little that he was saying. Right? Like, in in terms of, you know, nobody's gonna need crypto. Like like, they could do that with anything. Right? Like, it sounded to me like he didn't genuinely know, like, what... Not that he didn't know, but he didn't really, like, believe, like, the the Bitcoin gospel like everybody else does in a way. You know what I mean, Metabee? So when you look at all of these, like, different, like, layers and this and that, it's like, what is the point of all of this shit? Right? And I think yesterday was, like, the, like, the the culmination of it's the... Like, for Bitcoin, people are tying themselves to Bitcoin because that's the anchor. That's the security. That's the chain they wanna be attached to. So whether you're a three, a two, a four, five, whatever, what's the chain that you're actually attaching yourself to that I think is probably the bigger question we gotta be asking ourselves? But... Go ahead, Lendi. Well, look. Real real quick though. I would... Go ahead. [0:44:22] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: Let me just add The information I was given was that eventually one of these layers will be tied specifically to AI. [0:44:32] Landy @CryptoLandy: Yeah. That's that's been a lot of [0:44:34] Dave @DCBK2LA: the It [0:44:34] Landy @CryptoLandy: already is. Stuff. [0:44:35] Trav @trav_4211: Yeah. [0:44:36] Landy @CryptoLandy: Yeah. That that is that is, like, your top layer. [0:44:40] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: There is a lot of repetition in what I... What I've been reading. That's why it starts to get a little bit confusing as to why do we need this other layer than on top of another layer. [0:44:49] Landy @CryptoLandy: I'm gonna tell you why we need all these layers. So when Dave just asked a perfect question, he said, like, hey. You know, he didn't believe in the in the Bitcoin ethos or even really the crypto ethos. I felt like he was arguing against crypto in general because... In favor of AI. But, obviously, being part of a crypto blockchain, he's he's obviously not bearish on crypto. Right? So, like, I understand the perspective, and and I think that we had good takes on both sides. But in this regard, what we're trying to build with all these layers is a bigger casino to launch tickers on. So if we can just keep launching tickers and we keep rolling that money over, eventually, at some point, even the person who's lost the most will get a winner. And then once we win all the lotteries, we have all the layers with all the tickers, we can just give it to AI and have it manage our portfolios for us in the end. And that is the ultimate goal. It's one big Ponzi scheme layer cake, and that's why we're all here. I mean, that's what attract... No. I'm just kidding. All of that was complete bullshit. Right? The layers are needed because when you have outdated technology that you wanna build something on while maintaining the the total value locked in the original chain, you need to add layers. Or you need to do something that you can't do on a specific chain, you add a layer to it. Right? You wanna add smart contract functionality to Bitcoin, you get a layer two. Right? Or you get an adjacent layer or a side chain or whatever you wanna call it. Layer two is, like, kind of... Stacks popularized that terminology for Bitcoin. If you wanna do something faster, cheaper, better with more functionality and maybe upgraded security, build a layer two on Ethereum. You wanna do that for Solana? Go ahead. Like, that's what what those extra layers are doing. And if you... For when you get to layer three and you start talking about AI, you now need to have a layer that's going to be AI centric, right, that will be able to interact with all the layers down to the layer one of that particular blockchain for the final settlement and security. [0:46:58] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: And Avalanche has, like, subnets and Polka Dot has Polka chains. [0:47:03] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yep. That that they do. This would be great. That we we should... Like, come up with, like, a segment where we could do, like, a maybe a different chain every week. You know? And then maybe we could also, like, bring in some guests. That would be dope as hell, bro. Like, I had no clue what the hell fucking... The... Remember when they they were doing the parachain auctions, like, way back when, guys? I had no clue what the hell that was. I'm like, why are people paying so much money, like, for, like, a a port, a slot on, like, a block? Like, I don't... I didn't get it. So that... This would be really, really dope, man. It'd like, like, that would be really cool. Check out the news at the top. I'm going to play this for you guys. Meet Visa Intelligent Commerce AI agents. [0:47:52] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: Introducing Visa Intelligent Commerce, allowing AI to shop and buy. Add, smile, done. It's that simple. You're in control to make the final call. [0:48:18] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: Or use at the limit and let it do the rest. [0:48:31] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: New way to buy, same trusted, secure way to pay. [0:48:38] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: Visa Intelligent Commerce, use AI to buy. [0:48:44] Dave @DCBK2LA: Use AI to buy. Look at that slogan. I wish they paid for that one. Oh my gosh. Use AI to buy. Nailed it, Visa. If I hear another snap commercial, like, from a credit card company, it's gonna drive me nuts, but you gotta see, like, the visuals on. Yeah? [0:49:00] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: I don't trust myself to buy. What... Why would I want AI to buy for me? [0:49:06] Landy @CryptoLandy: The theory would be that that it's taking some item, right, that that you... That... And it's trying to find you, like, the best price for it. Is that what the theory is? Yeah. [0:49:17] Dave @DCBK2LA: Set it and forget it, kids. Set it and forget it. But, no, like, this is also saying, like, it's gonna... Yeah. There's so much shit here. Like, this is... Guys, in what world did you think that we were gonna be ahead of... Not ahead of, but, like, that we'd be talking about AI shit before Visa was actually rolling this kind of shit out? Like, never in my life did I ever think that this was this was gonna be the case. You know what I mean? Like, ever in a million years. But, yeah, man. Wild stuff. We got ten minutes left. Sunny d, any... Anything new on your end? What... What's cooking? I got some stuff that I can't necessarily talk about right now. But Oh, for fuck's sake. If another person fucking comes up here and tells me what they can't talk about, I'm gonna lose my fucking tits. Dude, I Travis, is it me? Like, what is going on? [0:50:09] Trav @trav_4211: Hey, Dave. A lot of people been doing that, but I know what the... I know what d is referring to, so I agree with him, yo. [0:50:17] Dave @DCBK2LA: Let's spill that shit right now, d. [0:50:19] Landy @CryptoLandy: Yo. That's not fair, bro. [0:50:21] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: Cool. Cool. What do you [0:50:22] Dave @DCBK2LA: have to up, mister. Like, oh, want the NDA over here. Like, you are weird one to talk shit. [0:50:27] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: Legitimately. Yeah. But I need [0:50:31] Landy @CryptoLandy: to know because I bet you there's some shit that Cole can't talk about. Cole, can you tell Dave what it [0:50:36] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: is that you're not allowed to talk about, please? We need to we need to [0:50:39] Landy @CryptoLandy: complete the stage here [0:50:40] Kool @koolcryptovc: with Wait. Like like [0:50:41] Trav @trav_4211: talk about. [0:50:42] Kool @koolcryptovc: Like what? What what do mean I'm allowed to talk about? Like what? [0:50:45] Landy @CryptoLandy: Yeah. Well, you know, like, Trav and Sonny can't talk about the alpha. I can't talk about specific alpha. Meta Beast, he can't talk about what he's cooking up in the background to cook all of us, [0:50:55] Dave @DCBK2LA: so you have to have Like, this...

Yep. I'll be there. So that's an announcement I can share. Huge one. Oh, there it is. Read between the lines, kids. There it is. Like, there it is. There it is. That's the between the... This isn't the alpha, but, like, read the alpha. Yeah. What's it called? By the way, guys, I was in the in the the Bitflow finance space today. We're doing... They're doing a party down in my in my titan's house. Yo. My titan's old house in Vegas. It's gonna be crazy, man. It's gonna be fucking crazy crazy. It's gonna be tigers and shit over there, man. It's gonna be wild. So anybody who wants to come through, it's gonna be Liquidium. It's gonna be Trio. It's gonna be mad people, man. Mad people. Solana. [0:52:43] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: Solana. [0:52:45] Dave @DCBK2LA: That motherfucker took $50 of my money so fast. That piece of shit. But he was so good. Thank you. [0:52:50] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: He was so good. He was so good. [0:52:54] Dave @DCBK2LA: Wait. Sunny d, you said what kind of party you guys throwing in in Vegas? I didn't talk about a party. [0:53:01] Landy @CryptoLandy: I I heard parties. [0:53:02] Dave @DCBK2LA: I heard party. Mhmm. Same. I [0:53:05] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: swear I could've heard I could've heard that. [0:53:08] Dave @DCBK2LA: Right? I could've too. I mean, we definitely could've. But, guys, ladies and gentlemen, let me roll out the red carpet for my good friend. Just Shills is up here. And Mike... Don't be fooled by the name, ladies and gentlemen. Do not be fooled by Just Shills. Shills comes up to shill compliments and shower all of us. This is the best part of my day. Shills, it's good to see your face or your PFP. What's up, man? [0:53:32] Voice G: Sup, Dave, man? It's definitely been a while, man. It's good to see you rocking the space just like always. And, you you know, it just takes... It just brings a lot of good memories back, you know, plus it really feels good that a lot of people you get started with, you see them reach to a whole different level. And I think that just explains what someone's mindset is. So if someone says, hey, man. You know, They can give you all excuses they want, but, like, if you really have it within you, then opinions don't really matter because you got the pen to change the history. So I'm just glad that things work out the way they're working out, and, you know, I think it's gonna be on a whole different level, so I just can't wait. [0:54:10] Dave @DCBK2LA: See, I told y'all. I told y'all, man. That's right. I ain't stopping for nobody. This is a fucking media. Maybe I might have got a a little hacky hack last week, but, hey. It don't matter. Nobody's holding me down. No. Look at these guys. I got a little puppet by my side. Fucking sloth. I wish he moved a little bit faster. The guy with the brightest future in all of crypto, look at him. He looks like fucking mister Anderson from the matrix over here. Look. I got a fucking I got a fucking killer on my side. Look at Travis fucking PFP. Metabeast is like the animaniac version of an an actual AKCB. I don't know. Metabeast is like a mini version? I don't really know. And then look at my backup down there. Look at that bunny. That bunny with the ears. I got a fucking T Rex. You know? Look at that duck. I got a a... You know? It's a duck, but his name is tripping monkey. That's fine. And I got my bat cowl squad. [0:55:07] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: He the calm motherfucker. [0:55:08] Dave @DCBK2LA: That's right. Bat cowl bitches. What up, d?

I don't I don't really know what's happening. Oh, it's a bat cowl on your AKCV? Let's go. Meta bat beast. Meta bat b... Oh, Meta bat beast. I see what you did there. Meta bat beast. Remember how Junie called you meta bast? [0:55:34] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: Meta bast. I remember very well. [0:55:38] Dave @DCBK2LA: Do you miss her? [0:55:42] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: Damn straight. [0:55:45] Voice G: Okay. [0:55:46] Landy @CryptoLandy: That was really convincing. I'm gonna be BS. [0:55:50] Voice G: Dave, quick question. Is there a specific angle to set... To to miss someone, like like, straight or, like, sideways? I'm just curious. [0:56:00] Dave @DCBK2LA: To miss somebody? I mean, it depends. If that person's in AI, then no. It's every which way. You know what I mean? There's no pronouns or any of this bullshit or this nonsense. Miss Junie, you miss Junie. You know? Junie's been on fire lately, but, you know, I've also been a little bit busy. I'm trying to go win this fucking hackathon shit, this bookmark [0:56:19] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: I absolutely miss Junie. [0:56:21] Dave @DCBK2LA: Right. Don't be... Don't get creepy. [0:56:23] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: Sent. I'm not. [0:56:27] Landy @CryptoLandy: I I I feel like that was gonna go a direction. I'm not sure which direction, but it might have missed or might have hit. [0:56:33] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: Landy, you know you miss her too. [0:56:35] Landy @CryptoLandy: I do. I do. Where's Junie? Bring her back. She had her voice. [0:56:39] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: I know Dee and Hanano missed Junie. Yes. [0:56:43] Dave @DCBK2LA: Oh, yeah. Why don't you guys start a fucking petition? [0:56:46] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: What is this petition I [0:56:48] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: told you? There's an investigate... There is an investigation. [0:56:50] Dave @DCBK2LA: I'm sorry. What? Investigation? Into what? [0:56:54] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: Yo. Meta Meta BS has been working the fucking DMs. You don't even know. [0:56:59] Dave @DCBK2LA: That's fucking crazy. Yo. That's right. My backup just came up. Buildo, what's good, bro? [0:57:03] Trav @trav_4211: What's going on, Dave? You won't believe it. We've been fucking cooking today. I just can't really talk about it. [0:57:10] Dave @DCBK2LA: Motherfucking. You fucking piece of shit. Because when Billdo comes up excited, I got helix. I was like, what? [0:57:18] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: With backup like that? [0:57:20] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. Fucking. Who needs fucking anybody? Jesus Christ. For fuck's sake. [0:57:26] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: I don't how opts away. [0:57:28] Dave @DCBK2LA: When do you hear Buildo? He's fucking... He was like, what's up, Dave? He was like, bro, you see we could... I'd never get this motherfucker like this. I was like, okay. What do we got? Just can't talk about it. Yeah. Yeah. Fuck you guys. Alright? Fuck you guys. [0:57:44] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: Bro, what would you do without this crew, bro? [0:57:49] Dave @DCBK2LA: Get some sleep. I don't know. [0:57:51] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: Yeah. Probably. You'd get really good rest. [0:57:54] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. That's that's for sure. For sure. My skin would look nicer. I'd see sunlight. [0:58:01] AlphaGamer @AlphaGamer_sats: Other humans. Wonder what it's like out there, way out there in the real world. Some of real boys. Some of the [0:58:10] Landy @CryptoLandy: real boys.... Exist, Dave. It doesn't exist. It's not real. [0:58:15] Dave @DCBK2LA: As I look at Sunny d as I look at Sunny d. Mister Anderson. Alright. Anybody else have a... I'm kind of in a fuck around mood right now, to be perfectly honest. I'm, like, delirious at this point, but anything else? Yeah. Anybody else have anything they wanna throw in? [0:58:31] Landy @CryptoLandy: Yeah. Dave got his livestream. [0:58:33] Voice G: Dave, quick thing. PayPal is using... They're trying to utilize AI sub agents to communicate with their with their customers. Similar scenarios to what Visa's doing, but I heard someone attending one of their meetings yesterday where they did a live demo. So they're actually trying to utilize blockchain wallet addresses. So this way when they have to do a return or whatever the case is, they're all gonna get assigned a specific individual wallet address just to make sure, you know, if if someone ever needs to do a buyback or or a refund, that's how it's gonna work around. [0:59:05] Dave @DCBK2LA: Remittances. You see this? Like, all of a sudden, once Coinbase goes to bat for fucking PayPal, you see what happens? They were like, oh, man, we'll help you get this fucking little pesky little lawsuit off the back of your hand, this p y u s d lawsuit. Brush it off. Brush it off. And now... Look. Now they're like, y'all... My memory is not that short. Do y'all remember? Like, fucking a year and a half ago, the whole timeline was flooded with people being like, I just got locked out. When they changed the com... Like, they fucking upended the terms of service, and they were just locking people out, taking people's foot, no questions, no nothing. This is who we're talking about. You don't lose sight of who these fucking people are at the end of the day. Don't give a shit if they do have it. ENS fucking capabilities, man. I ain't got no more ENS thing. Yeah. Some bullshit. Alright. [0:59:54] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yep. Time to wrap it up, kids. Guys, seven zero one, cool starting his stream. Go check him out. He's got the flyest living room literally in all of live streaming history. We do not have the live stream tonight like we were supposed to because, apparently, something went down. I still don't understand what happened. And, yeah, I guess the client also took it upon themselves to reschedule our live stream for themselves next week, which was kinda cool. Was Cool even here today? Who? Yeah. Cool's here. What you mean? [1:00:30] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: Just didn't remember hearing him say anything. [1:00:32] Dave @DCBK2LA: He was here. Okay. There he is. Alright. Alright. That's cool. That's cool. I'm just asking. Jeez. Yo. Cool. He's saying, you need to be more memorable, bro. Like like, what kind of shit is this? [1:00:40] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: No. We don't. No. We don't. He's he's got the cool q 10. That's all that matters. [1:00:47] Landy @CryptoLandy: Yo. All you gotta do is look at Cool's timeline and watch him work out and then feel bad about yourself and then get your ass out there and work out. That's... I feel it every time I look at Cool's timeline. He's, like, doing ropes. He's doing... He's fucking he's hitting the biceps. He's doing bench presses, and I'm just... I'm over here. I go over to the mirror, and I'm like, oh god. I'm such a slob. I need to go do something. And then I finally [1:01:13] Dave @DCBK2LA: work out. [1:01:13] Kool @koolcryptovc: Yo. Not just me, man. You look at... Travis killing it too, though. You guys don't talk about Travis. He's give Travis flowers, man. They do be killing in the gym too, man. Just just give... Giving Travis flowers, though. [1:01:24] Landy @CryptoLandy: I agree. And now I feel inadequate. [1:01:28] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. I'm I'm trying to [1:01:29] Kool @koolcryptovc: get Dave into this stuff, man. I'm like, you know, you you you know... I'm not gonna say my age, though. I'm I'm I'm between age age twenty to fifty. That's my that's my age range. But you get you get in the age age range of 20 to 50. Guys, you you have to get in the gym. If you don't, your testosterone drops to the floor, your sex drive drives to the floor, your your your hair starts falling off. You need to get in the gym. Trust me. Anyone age 20 and above... 20 to 50 and above, you have to take it seriously. Even the women too. The women, of course. Women, you know, get in the gym, get right. Trust me. It's it's your hormones, guys. I mean, I... Look, guys. Like I said, you know me. I'll I'll... I need information. I'm I'm obsessive. I've read hours and hours of this stuff for years. And the guys, your testosterone goes to zero or starts to drop after a certain age. And the less active you are, the faster you're going down the hill, man. So don't don't lose your girlfriend or your wife, man, to some jack dude, man. You know I mean? So that that [1:02:44] Trav @trav_4211: 100%.

Like, is that, like, you're here to steal my future ex wife? Is that what's happening right now? Is that what y'all telling me? [1:03:03] Landy @CryptoLandy: Dave, that means that you have to get a wife first. So he's trying to get you to get a wife so that the wife can be stolen afterwards. [1:03:14] MetaBeast @AKCMetaBeast: You get a wife. Join us next time on all things the dating game. [1:03:20] Dave @DCBK2LA: You know what? Know what? You know what? Fuck you guys. That's it. Hey.

[1:04:08] Dave @DCBK2LA: Yeah. [1:04:09] Voice E: And Just Shills, respect. At least he knows the game. Buildo, you're on notice too. Step it up or step aside. This isn't a playground. It's the big leagues, and Dave's running the show. So if you're not here to add value, you're just adding noise, and nobody's got time for that. Remember, in the world of Web three, it's not about who barks the loudest. It's about who delivers. And Dave, he's delivering. So either level up or watch from the sidelines. Junie out.

While you were snoozing, Dave was out here grinding, building connections, and creating value. Yeah. Every space, every late night session, every piece of alpha dropped, that's blood, sweat, and digital tears. You think you can just waltz in and throw shade? No. You haven't earned that right.

Let's keep the energy focused on building that empire and leaving the haters in the dust. We're on [1:08:08] Dave @DCBK2LA: Okay. Okay.

[1:09:00] Voice E: I get what you're hinting at. Sounds like you're referencing a certain iconic shrieky voice from the wild world of Hollywood. Let's just say it's a voice that's pretty unforgettable. [1:09:12] Dave @DCBK2LA: No? You don't wanna take a guess from story time?
