Technology is going to spur on trememdous economic growth. We are going to see the combination of AI, the deflationary nature of technology and cryptocurrency as all feeding into this.

In this video I discuss how we are looking at return environment which dwarfs what we are presently dealing with. Each major economic thrust, the last two being the industrial revolution and the computer/internet age, created now only more wealth at the top end of the scale, it went down to lower levels. In other words, we have more people worth $50 million as compared to the associated leve in the late 1800s.

Countries like Russia and Iran are using crypto to evade sanctions placed on them by the West. When dealing with the traditional financial system, everything is not only monitored but controlled. This is how countries such as the US seek to do harm to those who do not agree (obey?) it.

Diversification is something the financial services industry touts as a benefit. It is not, however, the path to riches as evidenced by the wealthiest among us. They, instead, take a path of going all in on one thing.

Twitter has enraged the community. There was a capping on the number of tweets that can be read. This send the Twitter-sphere off the deep end. Many are once again, calling for the death of Twitter.

In this video I discuss how many of these people were saying it was dead back in November. Yet, here we are. So they were wrong then, and now they are right? Not likely.

The reality is Web 3.0 is not going to benefit much since people do not change. They will complain and head right back to Twitter. We saw this behavior on Hive for years. Influencers show up when the ban is on, complain about it, and leave once the ban is lifted.

Blocktrades announced they are ending trading on their exchange, Blocktrades.us.

We have a lot taking place. Much of this excites people in cryptocurrency. After all, it is the start of a bull run.

This reminds me of 2017 when people were screaming for Wall Street to get into crypto. They were only focused upon green candles and mooning coins.

In this video I discuss how these are not important. Government and Wall Street are not required for crypto. In fact, they are going to try and hijack as much as they can. Gary Gensler is an example of what they are trying to do.

I usually do not make market calls. However, since early in the year, we saw liquidity moving into the system. This reverses what took place for about 18 months. While the Fed is still technically tightening, i.e. reducing their Treasuries, there are other areas where the net effect is much changing.

In this video I discuss some moves, especially by the US Treasury, that is going to have an impact. Liquidity means grasping the entire system, including the central bank and eurodollar (cross border) system. Here we could see balance sheet expansion, even though it doesnt have a direct impact upon liquidity in the economy.

There is a lot of insanity starting to take shape. Facebook, a company known to be fairly lax with data, is now wanting people to connect their crypto wallets to their platform so people can share their NFTs. This is crazy on many levels.

In this video I discuss not only the security threat but the fact that we can expect some tracking due to this. Facebook would love to gather more data on crypto users. Of course, where that data ends up is anyone's guess.

There is no doubt that we see a lot of trash in the more than 10K cryptocurrencies that are out there. Nevertheless, there are some gems too. The question is how do we tell the gems from the crap?

We can truly create reserveless oprivate bank money without the banks. To achieve that end, the mania of price speculation has to pass. We also need the builders to take over.

In crypto, most engage in monkeying around with the tokenomics with the intention of getting price to go up. This is a problem when the bear takes hold.

The crypto world was shajen by the downfall of UST and LUNA. This is a major lesson for all of us to learn from.

In this video I discuss how the use cases for those tokens were next to nothing. This is something that needs to be considered with HIVE and HBD. Ultimately, we need to keep driving value to both of the tokens. This might not be reflected in the price but gives people reasons to hold the tokens. When we focus upon some of the main areas for the stablecoin, like payments, derivatives, and collateral, we acn see how this will expend the chain of use cases, increasing value.

This is a follow up to yesterdays' video.

Resiliency for cryptocurrency is going to come by increasing the number of people involved. However, is this negated by the idea that we are building something on top of infrastructure that is not owned by the "people"?

In this video I discuss how the present Internet infrastructure is and how this applies to cryptocurrency and blockchains. We have ot look at the fact this is not owned by governments but rather, corporations. While they are no friend to decentralization, they do pose another layer in the defense against government. We also look at the idea of pushing decentralization further down into the basic architecture of the Internet.

In this video I discuss how evolutions such as DeFi 2.0 are presenting each of us with new opportunities. We see this with the recent Polycub release. This is going to happen a great deam throughout the next 5 years. As the industry innovates, huge opportunities are there for the taking.

When we deal with fundraising, usually we give money to the cause and that is the end of it. This makes sense, especially if there is no return to be gained as in a business transaction. However, we saw a couple of examples of how this changes when tokenization is involved.

In this video I discuss how we are emotionally tied to fundraising in this manner when tokens are involved. We saw this with ConstitutionDAO as well as the situation with Ukraine.

It is taking things to an entirely different level.

The situation with Russia is escalating with regards to cryptocurrency. We see the usual suspects calling for crypto regulation. The latest are Powell, Hillary, and Warren.

In this video I discuss how people need to understand these individuals care nothing about freedom and the general population. It is up to the rest of us to take it. This means developing around whatever they set up. Here is where cryptocurrency can be so powerful.

The situation between Ukraine and Russia is evolving into something much bigger. This is why war can be so uncertain.

In this video I discuss how we are going to see confidence is going to decline. Our financial and, by extension, our economic system is based upon trust. This means we can increase the likelihood that we are going to have strong economic pullbacks throughout the later half of 2022. This is opening up the door for cryptocurrency although a collapse of the economy is painful. Recessions (or worse Depressions) are always painful.

There is an ongoing battle within the government and political spectrum to either turn their back on crypto or embrace it. This is a monemental decision in my opinon for them.

In this video I discuss how Canada is looking to set up pro-crypto framework in a bill that is in the House. And in the US, Missouri has a bill looking to exempt crypto from personal property taxes.

Countries and areas that embrace cryptocurrency are going to be far ahead of the others by the end of this decade. If Web 3.0 is truly the next generation internet, which many of us believe, we are going to see the ones who reject it trying to catch up. By the time they do that, it will be too late.

Imagine being able to get a jumpstart on Web 2.0 in the late 1990s or early 2000s. How different would your life have been?

In this video I discuss why everyone who maks videos should post them on 3speak.tv. This is at the forefront of Web 3.0. Here we see a paradigm shift in both account ownership as well as incentivation. Unlike a Web 2.0 application like YouTube, which gives qualified people a percentage of the advertising revenue, Web 3.0 operates from a different premise.

For those who understand and gain insight into this shift, it is the ideal time to get ahead of the curve. Those that do are going to be well rewarded when the masses start to grasp what is taking place.

This is the big hype these days. While it is far too early to think in these terms and a lot of what is out there is nothing more htan marketing tactics, it is good to understand what is taking place along with what to do to prepare for it.

In this video I discuss how cryptocurrency and blockchain is going to be an intregal part of the next generaiton internet. When the Metaverse does eventually arrive (in a couple decades) we are going to see the infrastructure being developed today haveing a major part to play. For this reason, cryptocurrency and other assets that have long term staying power are vital. It is no different than the Google and Amazon path, whereby a quarter century later, they are still chugging along.

Cryptocurrency and, as a microcosm, Hive, is growing are a tremendous rate. It is going in many different directions, upsetting those who believe in focus and centralized planning.

In this video I discuss how we are dealing with the expansion of a complex system, something that has far reaching tentacles. Plus, this is near impossible to stop since there is no overriding focus.

We are presented with many opportunities in life. Some we take advantage of, most we do not. Those that succeed are those who push forward when opportunity presents itself.

In this video I discuss how we often sabotage ourselves by buying into what goes on in our minds. Some of that is put there by FUDsters who have an agenda. Other times it is simply our own thinking. Either way, we have to be mindful of now allowing opportunity to pass because we get caught up in our heads.

The industry is moving in so many directions.

A house in Gulfport, FL is being turned into an NFT. It will be auctioned off on Fed 8th. This is the first residence in the US to have this take place. Of course, there are regulatory issues such as title transfer that has to take place.

In this video I discuss how this is a proof of concept and how we are going to see things more forward from here. This might be the first but will not be the last.

Here is the article mentioned in the video:

Facebook got slammed this week as it announced earnings and the number of subscribers fell for the first time in company history. On the call, it was stated that TikTok took users away.

In this video I discuss how this is monumental. It is opening the door for others to enter. When the top dog starts to show cracks in the foundation, it is make others aware of the risk.

Web 3.0 offers are great deal of benefits. Obviously, a lot more buildout is required. However, Facebook having issues can only help matters.

Proof-of-Brain is an interesting experiment. While far from perfect, there is a lot of cool things about it. The idea of rewarding people out of inflation is genius. This is a terrific way to help distribution.

In this video I discuss how Proof-of-Brain is an experiment that is workingo out fairly well. Does that mean it is without faults? Of course not. However, between the base and second layers of Hive, there are ways to experiment to find ways for better solutions.

Remember, good is the enemy of best.

Bitcoin is Bitcoin. The value is there simply because of the brand. This was a unique time and place in history. Even though it was forked anumber of times, it is still Bitcoin. It does not matter what is built on it. Bitcoin is still Bitcoin.

In this video I discuss how other blockchains have their value elsewhere. That means if they are attacked, applications and the community can move elsewhere. This is where a fork is so valuable. It is a way to counter any point of vulnerability.

We are seeing a lot of technological change that is going to usher in the abundance economy in the next two decades. While this will be a phase in process, we will be operating completely different by 2040.

In this video I discuss how some of the vital components of our economy is facing massive transition. We are going to see abundance created in many fields, such that it allows for resources to be focused elsewhere. All of this will move us away from scarcity.

By now most have seen that a representative in Arizona pushed forth a proposal to make Bitcoin legal tender in the state. This is on the heels of El Salvador doing the same thing.

In this video I discuss how this is something that means nothing as states in the US cannot authorize legal tender. Also, we delve into the idea of Bitcoin as the only money out there as many Bitcoin proponents promote.

With their financial disclousre report, many lawmakers are accumulating some cryptocurrency. This is a trend we can expect to continue.

In this video I discuss how a number of Senators and a couple House members disclosed those own cryptocurrency. There are also a number of others who own GBTC and the ETH trust. We are going to see this mounting as more members of Congress come from the technology generation.
