Allen does such a good job in clarifying certain terms prior to answering the question at hand. These kind of details are so important and certainly help listeners understand his point. Another great pod Preston!
Yes! Refreshing! Qualifying and defining and precision is so lacking especially in today's world.
I Hit 110k today. Thank you for all the knowledge and nuggets you had thrown my way over the last months. Started last month. Financial education is indeed required for more than 70% of the society in the country as very few are literate on the subject. thanks to Wendy Stewart for helping me achieve this
she's mostly on Instagrams, using the user name
@Fxstewart12 ..that's it .
Please tell her that I reffed you 👍
She’ll guide you💯
I know nothing about trading/ Investing and I'm keen on getting started . What are some strategies to get started with ?
As a beginner, it's essential for you to have a mentor to keep you accountable.
I'm guided by a widely known crypto consultant
Mrs Joanna Walker
This is correct, Joanna Walker strategy has normalized winning trades for me also and it's a huge milestone for me looking back to how it all started.
Joanna is considered a key Crypto Strategist with one of the best copy Trading portfolio and also very active in the cryptocurrency space.
Isn't that the same Joanna Walker that my neighbours are talking about, she has to be a perfect expert for people to talk about her so well
Fantastic! Keep these coming Preston! Thank you!
I’m excited to see what innovations come next in the crypto space.
Really enjoyed this! The points about Bitcoin's collateral potential got me thinking about long-term strategies. I've started using My Digital Money to diversify my retirement with crypto, and it feels like the right move. Anyone else here seeing stablecoins as a gateway to investing in Bitcoin?
Great interview Preston.
Do you have someone edit out all the pauses and breathing in? Or do you do it using some AI type processing?
The idea that smaller non-public companies doing the MSTR model is true, but they can't do the entire model. They can take profits and buy BTC for their balance sheet but Saylor is doing so much more. He's engineering financial products geared to providing access to BTC for investors and funds that cannot otherwise do so. He's inventing a new business model!
“But where does the yield come from?”
Wurmp is taking center stage with that Times Square ad! The future is looking bright!
Thx
It undermines both your credibility when you comment on a discussion that you haven't listened to. I've listened to the Saylor/ Saif debate...I'll come back when you have too.
Preston smiling at the trading part, knowing he sold the top of 2017 :))
Saif’s no lending against Bitcoin is derived from Islam (no usary).
Thanks for the advice! Got XAI60X, feeling bullish! 🚀
If this is the pristine property, then surely it should be something you can borrow against
Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) was bailed out to save Circle (USDC) from going bust. Stablecoins are still fiat just in a digital form.
Saylor is never going to take the original cyberpunk tack on bitcoins future. He got roughed up by the SEC 23 years ago and he doesn’t want the eye of Sauron back on him. Lepard is on record stating that Saylor has asked him to tone it down on the toxic maxi talking points. I suspect his caution is warranted, we’ve not yet the “sly, round about way” yet.
Blackrock, MicroStrategy, Square and many BTC affiliated companies have been named in a $1 Trillion UK legal claim...
"A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution."
BTC no longer adheres to The Bitcoin White Paper. Segwit and Taproot changed BTC/Bitcoin
As per the $1 Trillion legal claim that BTC is passing off as Bitcoin
The excitement around Wurmp’s potential listings is infectious! Let’s see those 1000x gains!
Thanks for the analysis! I have a quick question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?
Did anyone catch Wurmp’s ad in Times Square? The excitement is unreal!
Allen has already written 'Where does yield come from?'.
DELL is next, methinks.
In a world where trust is not necessary, borrowing against your Bitcoin will be as easy as doing anything in a trustless society. We show our Bitcoin holding, and we pay back what we borrow with interest to our lenders without worry of being trusted to repay our loans. We do not need to hand over private keys to be trusted. We just have to pay back our loans.
Bad take. If it were somehow guaranteed that you pay back your loan with interest, you wouldn't need collateral at all.
Wurmp’s Times Square ad proves it’s more than just a meme coin - it’s a movement!
Interesting future outlook. I am not an expert on TA, but looking at 1 year chat, man the way BTC is slowly coiling up whilst building a strong support. On the other side also these institutions buying, it's almost face melting 🫠 to think about it
Allen has it absolutely correct - if there is no lender of last resort for bitcoin then you cannot run a fractional reserve bank on bitcoin because it will eventually fail and all those with bitcoin in it are getting a haircut at best! It’s not hard to figure out.
All business will eventually cease or fail. That doesn't mean a business can't be run successfully for generations, and wind down gracefully at its closure.
The future looks bright for Wurmp! Keep your eyes on this one!
XAI60X is still extremely undervalued
Wurmp Inu is the one meme coin that I believe in. Lets go parabolic after the launch!!
the guest doesn't bread or is he just in a big hurry?
Wurmp Inu will make millionaires, meme coin of the year.
Ape in Wrump Inu presale if you can, this meme will explode very soon.
