| 0:00.0 | All right, everybody, welcome back to the Crypto 101 podcast presented by Gemini, your bridge to the future of money. |
| 0:15.9 | And what an episode we have for you. |
| 0:18.1 | We have not one, Brendan. |
| 0:19.5 | We have two breaking news. The new Fed decided. |
| 0:23.4 | They said it was going to be February wrong. It happened this morning. Polymarket odds did not |
| 0:28.5 | sniff this one out. We're going to break that down real quick. And Brendan, I hope you are safe from |
| 0:32.4 | the silver bear market. There is blood in the streets and the color of it is not red. It is silver, silver bleeding |
| 0:39.4 | out. Gold bleeding out. The easy, easy trade of the year. And everybody said, gold, silver, |
| 0:45.6 | copper, safe haven, safe, no more. Absolutely bleeding to the floor. Almost 20, 25, 30 percent. |
| 0:53.4 | We're going to get up the charts with Brendan. |
| 0:55.1 | We're going to look at the technical analysis. This is the crypto trade alert and the Friday |
| 0:59.6 | episode that is live for you all. If you are joining us on YouTube, we really appreciate it. |
| 1:04.6 | Brendan, welcome to the show and happy Friday. Dude, what a time to be alive. What a time to be in the |
| 1:10.1 | crypto market. Welcome back, everyone. It's good to have you here and happy freaking Friday. Sorry if you can hear a little bit of noise in the background. A little bit of, I don't know, it looks like yard work going on out there, but we're going to make it through it. Tevo, you're right. What a move over the last 24, 48 hours. Everything. I mean, everything spilling to the downside, gold, silver, crypto, even the stock market, you're seeing a big old turnover. And there's just a handful, like so many different news catalysts that we got to bring up and talk about and everything else. |
| 1:49.4 | Two of the big ones, I mean, the silver market, the metals market, which has been like the go-to kind of meme coin-like rise that it's seen here recently, come and crashing down today. |
| 1:56.1 | We've been covering the medals and what that has meant for the crypto market. |
| 1:59.5 | We're going to talk a lot more about it in today's episode, but, you know, I think the real kind of primary catalyst, the big talk of the |
| 2:06.5 | town, which is what we're going to kick off today's episode with, is the new Federal Reserve |
| 2:11.9 | pick, because Jerome Powell, aka J. Pow, as we like to call him over here, he's on his way out this year, and he's |
| 2:19.1 | going to be replaced by what, well, actually, you know what, I won't spoil it, Tivo. I won't spoil it. |
| 2:24.9 | Maybe I give that to you. But, man, he's going to be getting replaced. And it looks like |
| 2:31.3 | his replacement will be, number one, very pro-Bitcoin, and number two, much more focused on cutting rates. |
