0:00.0	Bankless Nation, it is the fourth week of July, the final week of July, is time for the bankless
0:08.4	weekly rollups. David, we got all-time high on the total crypto market cap. Do you know that? I just
0:13.8	saw this while I was preparing the agenda. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 4.001 trillion dollars. Yeah. That's great.
0:22.1	Yeah, for $4 trillion, it's incredible.
0:24.9	Also, the genius bill was signed last Friday.
0:27.3	The question is, what's next?
0:29.2	I think this is a big, big, big deal.
0:32.8	And what do you do if you're the White House, if you're Donald Trump?
0:34.9	Well, first, you got to throw a party with all the stable coin bros. And he did that. We have some clips from, from those shenanigans. Also,
0:42.6	the big question, what's going to happen next after the genius bill? What next issuers are we going
0:48.3	to see? Yeah. What does this actually do? What does this unlock? How are the Tradfly players going to make their moves after
0:55.5	all this is unlocked? Speaking of making moves, Polymarket is making moves into the United States.
1:00.9	They buy an onshore exchange that makes them U.S. compliant. We're going to talk about that.
1:05.7	Shane Completon on at CNBC talking all about it. And then the ETH, the big story of the week.
1:10.0	If you were on C.T., this was the news of the week, was the ETH-Eth-E-TF inflows God-Candals. The ETH Treasury companies are soaking up ETH, but so are the ETHs. The ETH-E-T-F, ETH, A, the Black Rock E-E-T-F, is not the third fastest ever ETF to hit $1 billion. We're going to go look at a chart. And spoiler, it's just a vertical line. So we're going to talk about that. More ETH treasury companies got announced this week. We're talking about that. And lastly, an update. Roman Storm's lawyers are asking for a mistrial after, will you believe this? The government put up a witness who stolen funds probably didn't
1:44.6	even use tornado cash, David. What are they doing over there? Witnesses that didn't use tornado
1:49.8	cash? What's the point? What's the point of that? All of this would be almost like hilarious if a man's
1:54.7	life wasn't at stake. So there's some big stakes here in the Roman storm trial. We'll update you on all of
1:59.3	that and more. I got to let you know,
2:01.3	though, David is, he would be even higher energy given ETH price point on the week, but my man's got a cold. I'm a little sick. I'm a little sick. So if you're saying that in the voice, I'm here. You're here and you're bullish, right? I'm still, I'm here and I'm bullish, that is Well, in your most bullish way, can you give us the Bitcoin price in the week?
2:00.7	Bitcoin price on the week?
2:19.0	Bitcoin price on the week, up half a percent on the week. We are currently clocking in it $119,000 Bitcoin. No, no no all-time highs on the seven days, unfortunately.
