| 0:00.0 | You've had a dynamic where money has become freer than free. |
| 0:10.0 | If you talk about a Fed just gone nuts, all the central banks going nuts. |
| 0:16.0 | So it's all acting like safe haven. |
| 0:18.0 | I believe that in a world where central bankers are tripping over themselves to devalue their |
| 0:23.5 | currency, Bitcoin wins. In the world of fiat currencies, Bitcoin is the victor. |
| 0:29.2 | I mean, that's part of the bold case for Bitcoin. |
| 0:31.8 | If you're not paying attention, you probably should be. |
| 0:36.3 | I got the most blowback I've gotten on Twitter X in years for quote tweeting one of the |

It's like, well, obviously not explicitly. They need to declare war against these people aren't, these people aren't flying, |
| 1:46.3 | they're not flying flags. If they were flying Venezuelan flags, this would be an act of war. |
| 1:51.5 | And then Venezuela can just declare war against us. And then we can see who wins the American |
