    "If it's deflationary, why is it down 88%?"
    "Is that not deflationary enough?"
    Can't stop laughing. Comedy gold!

    I just want to say Thank You Both again.. I totally understand that 99.9% of your listeners are very smart young ppl but I am nether young or smart( I am 64 and worked with behavior problem kiddos for 24 years) However even this old lady has learned SO much! I still have to google terms but I am learning.. at this point Not to put $$ in crypto until I learn a lot more!!!

      Stay away from crypto in general. It's one big scam.

    If/when we ever find out the inner workings of Binance, I expect it to be every bit as messed up as FTX.
    But both of those pale in comparison to what we'll find if Tether is ever held accountable...

    One of the bits that gets me with the OF (or many cannabis shops) banking issues is that it produces a grey area. Everyone knows they can't pass KYC but everyone knows it is BS and so is morally cleared to pass them through. And it is a lot easier for someone who is a massive problem, drug deals, terrorists, etc to mask as a grey area unbankable group and get waved pass KYC than something on the up and up. Crypto in general is much the similar and so it makes groups that aim to go for that market (oh hi Moonstone Bank what are you doing here) fertile group for even more problematic groups.
    Also the effects on consolidation and a radical change in basic view of anti-trust between the S&L crisis and Arthur Andersons demise (which is what, I think, set the tone for the GFC response) is what made so many cogs to big to fail and why we see so few prosecutions in white collar crimes (along with laws redefining corruption with tank sized loopholes, and taking most of the white collar division of the FBI and sending them to the anti-terrorist branch etc)
    Also wonderful signoff....

    It seems that the biggest risk in crypto isn't the cryptocurrencies or tokens themselves, but the crypto platforms.

    4:08 "...surprise (?), he went to Stanford..."
    You need to clip this so you can drop in the edit every time it happens.
    I humbly beg CCC once again for a very special episode on this den of heck + inequity called "Stanford".
    Oh please please please.

    Cas Coin is engineered personal financial fiefdom for every smart giver-over-to-money-manage-for-us-er.
    [Ok so I was going for "freedom" but it felt apt to leave it at "fiefdom"; Freudian typo.]
    Please never stop Cas-Coin-play. Maybe a line won't go up, but it invariably raises my spirits. Cas Coin mints laughter.

    as you release more videos it is like Cas is slowly turning the temp up on Bennet on these cas-coin updates. Like when Bennet guarantees that the people invovled in cas-coin have not been convicted of fraud and Cas is Like what!!!?

    Are you ok? Is someone sick?

    CASCoyn ys workyng tyrelessly to replace every syngle letter "i" (apart from that one) yn theyr publyc statements.
    Why? (Pun yntended), because replacyng "i" (also not thys one) wyth "y" ys the modern equyvalent of replacyng "s" wyth "z"

    8:55 Please don't say "fiat", you sound like a crypto bro. Call it "actual money" or "USD" or whatever please.

      I enjoy the extra spice off them code-switching between Bro talk + real talk.
