| 0:00.0 | All right, everybody, welcome back to the Crypto 101 podcast presented by Gemini, your bridge to the future of money. |
| 0:15.7 | And it is an imprompt to Fed Day with TiVo and Brian. Brian was nice enough to clear his schedule for the afternoon. |
| 0:23.6 | We have a Fed rate decision. It was unchanged as expected. So nothing crazy there. Although |
| 0:30.4 | coming off the wire right now, Brian, I saw that there's, you know, the Fed in their kind of their |
| 0:35.8 | minutes that they released to the press. I just saw a headline. There's no clear decision on when cuts may resume. Obviously, that is going |
| 0:43.1 | to tickle the White House administration the wrong way. We have a new Fed president who will be |
| 0:49.9 | decided by Donald Trump, the president. Again, politics aside, that's just the way it goes. |
| 0:55.1 | This does affect the markets top to bottom from the stock market to crypto. So that's why we're |
| 0:59.3 | covering it. But we try to do it in a fun, unique way. So if this is your first time listening |
| 1:03.9 | to the Fed Decision Day, basically it goes like this. Brian and I, we got 10 minutes here. |
| 1:09.8 | We're going to go back and forth on a little bit of Fed news. We're going to have some fun in the prediction markets. |
| 1:16.2 | We're going to talk about that. And we're going to place some wagers. Again, nothing that we say |
| 1:20.8 | are due here is financial advice. We are just a couple guys having some fun in the prediction |
| 1:25.2 | markets. And then in 10 minutes, Fed chair, pal will come to the |
| 1:28.6 | podium. Will he say good afternoon? Will he not? It's at 96% right now. And we're going to |
| 1:35.4 | see what happens during the press conference. Before he goes on, we'll give you some of our wagers |
| 1:39.6 | and you can follow along for fun. I will keep, if you're on the audio version, I'll keep the press conference in there because, again, the press conference is important. The most important part is probably the Q&A. Markets move to that a lot of the time. So we're just here to have fun and break it down. And we appreciate you joining us. A couple of people are piling in here on the chat.'ve got j c jc in the air arc block army stand |
| 2:05.2 | up there he is all right j c what's going on brother um brian welcome welcome to fed day once again |
| 2:10.3 | not a super exciting one as we said at least leading up to the jump but uh i i don't know there could be |
| 2:15.0 | some fireworks this afternoon yeah it could get it could get. I mean, we probably overall want more of a boring meeting out there, but who knows? |
| 2:24.7 | Who knows what could happen on Fed Day? It could definitely move the markets. Paul, he has a few more left. |
| 2:32.1 | Like, this is his third to last until he's gone, uh, essentially. So we'll find out what happens. But good afternoon's that smash 99% right now. So that's, uh, that's obviously Powell's crutch to get the get the press call. I got in. I got in it. So I did take the good afternoon. I got in at 97%. |
