We're talking all time highs right now. This has been all time high week. How are you doing? You got a big smile on your face. You must be happy. You're in your spongebob sweat sweater.

So it's going right. High fatties. It's awesome. Yeah. There's so much so many awesome things happened this week. Like you said, all time highs for Bitcoin. We got the Bitcoin ETF as well. Lots to unpack there. Also a Dow takes the mysterious unreleased famous Wu Tang album from the cold hands of a hedge fund villain and is now making it accessible for the rest of the world. TBD on that as well. And also

draft Kings and Polygon a 40 billion dollar public company now on polygon. Whoa. That's pretty cool. So much to talk about. Yeah, we got some details on the coin based NFT platform as well. We're going to cover so much going on, David. Hard to fit it in. But you know, we manage somehow sometimes it's a it's an hour and a half. Sometimes it's two hours. We jam pack this episode with everything that you need to know in crypto this week. So we'll time to do that once again. You think we're going to be successful.

We're going to try and go real real fast. So let's go ahead and get right into it. Ryan. But first we got some announcements. Want to take us through them.

The first is pool together has just rolled out their V4. They wanted bankless audience to know about it. And this is like my number one. When somebody asked me, what's the first thing I should use in DeFi? I always refer to them to pool together. It's either Uniswap or pool together. But I do this because this is a no lost lottery. Right. So they can't get angry at me.

If they lose anything because they won't lose something by depositing their funds into pool together. You put USDC in. It's fun. Easy to use. Use your interface. Just connect Metamask and boom. You're in a lot of where you can only win. There's there's no loss in the principle.

They generate the earnings based on prizes that are pushed out to the platform and based on the yield. The assets are earning. So it's like a it's like another way to save.

It's like a high interest, a lot of savings account actually. And their V4 has even more prizes. Also, it's a whale proof. It's really friendly for the the smaller minutes only depositing smaller amounts of money.

There's near zero transaction fees too because the hack is you can now deposit into pool together using polygon and not have to pay a gas fees. And they're launching with a million dollars in prizes.

So really cool to see this. I've won the lotto before. I don't know if you've ever won the lotto in pooled together. But it's like a magic feeling. You go and you check and you're like, oh my god, I won this week. Isn't that awesome?

Yeah. If you ever wanted to check the box of winning the lottery pool together, it might be the best way that you can add that to your Instagram bio or maybe your Tinder dinner bio. Just let let the people know that you want the lottery.

You should not tell anyone you win the lottery. If you win the lottery, that's like, yeah, it's a recipe for, you know, too many acquaintances calling you up and and wanting things. Anyway, guys, check that out. That's a bankless dot cc slash pool together and jump in the pool with us. David.

All right, all time high week. You ready to get to markets? That's absolutely do it. It is all time high week for Bitcoin. We crossed the previous all time high of $63,500, setting a new all time high of $67,100, taking a little bit of a tumble back down to $63 or $63,200. But still broke the all time highs.

That's big, man. That's big. So the last previous all time high, if I recall correctly, was some time in April, April 13th, 1191 days ago.

So Bitcoin holders, like through this whole bull run, they bet they've had to be very patient because they've watched all of these other assets pump since April in particular, like we have this alt layer to

the alt layer one summer, we had sort of a defy 2.0 kind of resurgence as well. And Bitcoin holders, if you are a Bitcoin holder, you've been waiting patiently for this time to come.

The big news was going to be the ETF, right? And here it is. It happened this week. And that's why we're seeing the Bitcoin pump. Does that explain all of this, David?

I think that a broader question that I want to ask is like, we went through all time high where we are now, 191 days ago, 27 weeks ago.

Then we went through like this period where Bitcoin just got slammered with FUD after FUD after slammered, huh, China FUD, energy FUD, ESG FUD, like regulation FUD.

And it took a beating. It went all the way like how low did it get like 29,026, 7,000 or something before returning back to back to all time highs.

And so like pretty crazy, right? And like, what is it, 27 weeks, half of a year. Like, there's always the conversation about Bitcoin goes in cycles. Like, was that a mini cycle? Was that a full cycle? Does, does it even matter as a cycle to talk about? Did we just go through like a full like seasonality cycle? I don't really know.

Important story is we are back at all time highs.
