All right, bankless nation, it's roll up time. This is the third week of April. David, how

0:18.2

you doing? Absolutely fantastic. Third week of April and one of the most monumental

0:23.0

weeks in crypto history, at least in my opinion, price action is absolutely flying. And

0:28.5

meanwhile, we have crypto's ever big, our biggest company is now a public company on

0:33.8

the NASDAQ. So many things to get excited about. And we are going to go through all of

0:37.8

them on this bankless weekly roll up. Guys, if this is your first roll up, this comes

0:42.4

at you every Friday, every Friday, AM, enjoy it with your coffee. This is the fastest

0:46.7

a raffle. If you have a bankless badge, you can go sign up for the raffle. Starting on

Monday, we're giving out one every single day for the whole week, trying to get these
