| 0:00.0 | All right, everyone, welcome back to the Crypto 101 rundown, presented by Gemini, your bridge to the future of money. |
| 0:17.6 | And man, we are so glad that all of you are here with us today. |
| 0:20.1 | This is going to be a very special end of year episode. We have a full house over here. We got Bryce, we got Teva, we got myself. We're going to be talking about not only everything that happened this year, but what 2026 looks like as we move into this whole new year, this whole new era of the crypto market. So there's a lot to discuss. And as per usual, |
| 0:38.2 | we want to go everything from the fundamentals in the news to the technicals on the charts, |
| 0:42.8 | to the different regulatory stuff that we've seen this year, to the on chain data. We're going |
| 0:47.4 | to be breaking down everything that you need to know about this year that is yet to come. Because |
| 0:52.5 | guess what? If you thought this year was spicy we think |
| 0:55.4 | next year is going to be just as action-packed in fact maybe even more so we think that there's |

| 1:38.1 | I mean, we started the year where basically we had, you know, I mean, we'll go through |
| 1:43.6 | month by month, everything that happened, |
| 1:45.0 | but we just started the year with a new president, a new administration that said one of their |
| 1:49.4 | main objectives was to completely, you know, re-architect the guidelines for this industry, |
| 1:55.9 | which had been completely stymied by the prior administration. So they were laying the groundwork. We've got |
| 2:02.0 | incredible momentum on the policy front. We even had the very first law enshrined for crypto through |
