    03:49 Reminder: Unfunded Liabilities
    04:12 I am 65% Solana (28 years old) and am scared of a worse scenario and it crashes. Would you recommend to swap some (ex 20%) for Bitcoin by selling at a 10% loss now, or is it not that risky?

    04:53 BTC ETH and SOL Mapped

    22:48 Summary
    23:19 My mother-in-law is concerned about the state/social care draining away savings that would of been inheritance destined for her disabled son. Since the fiat system is set to get worse and therefore her potential savings might be drained away before it gets to her son, how can we use crypto to circumnavigate the steely hands of the state?

    30:22 Bullish China vs Bearish China
    32:31 Per Warren Buffett
    33:46 Govt spending is the main driver for money debasement. Although govts are voted for by the people, too many are depended on a generous govt (govt employees, people on various benefits: health, unemployment, retirement, etc.) Do you feel the structure in Switzerland, where more power remains with its citizens, is the best way to avoid this trap?
    34:19 Entitlements Are The Issue

      James,
      You don’t talk about XMR much. It’s the best privacy crypto by far, better than cash even. My question is this: As we begin a world of CBDC’s, and cash becomes obsolete, wouldn’t XMR(Monero) or the like take the place of the $$Billions of cash commerce around the world monthly??

      Not sure why you never refer to Mashinsky as the con man when it comes up. He had the nerve to come on your channel weeks before everything blew up and assured all your listeners everything is OK. Name and shame!

      James, what would you say to a commodities dex, which the gov token yielded PAXG (gold) returns to holders, not stakers?

      It exists, and <$40m FDV at 100% CS

    14. Jacob Merchlewitz on

      Would love to see James do a video breaking down the 90% of day traders lose money statistic. Is it really that high? What are the main reasons for it? Swing trading have the same fail rate? etc etc.

      …Curious about the return on BTC not being as big as SOL, ETH, etc…. I see this to be true in the shorter term but in the long term if BTC becomes the everything currency and goes to $500k or $1 mil or $10 mil that doesn't necessarily signal that ETH and SOL will do the same. At that point, it seems to me, they will have different functions and thus dyssynchronous valuations.

      Please take the time to watch the SBF debate with Erik Voorhees that just happened. He utterly showed his hand about his beliefs on decentralization. I won't tell you what to think, I am sure you will see for yourself.

      Something’s up with housing. Non of the fintubers are discussing the change from FICO only to FICO and Vantage score.

      Fees like the fear is few people will be able to purchase homes..so the law was pushed through.

      Also I foresee 40 year mortgages upcoming.

      James, you are a better philanthropist than Jack Dorsey. I'm a beneficiary of the insane knowledge you donate to this community every day. You are changing lives. Thank you.

      James, I thoroughly enjoyed the interview that you did with Greg Foss some months back and I know that he does many talks with Jeff Booth, who I find to be absolutely amazing. What are your views on what Jeff Booth has to say about deflation? His view is that deflation is a wonderful thing and will be brought about by technology in large part, but by bitcoin too. To me, inflation is purely and simply, theft by the governments of the world, as explained by Rick Rule very eloquently.

      1. Given that the last three build years of Tesla have shown it to no longer a reliable build in its costly problematic front end components, battery weight and high pricing why would anyone put 80 percent of their investments here when both EVs and hybrids of Hyundai, Kia, Honda and Toyoto / Geely are better affordable cars?
      2. Why would one chose BTC that actually devalues itself compared to ETH which is the same store of value. Seems that you are missing out on Cosmos ATOM and DOT in your portfolio as their sets ups are more secure at this time than SOL.

      Relating to your paid off mortgage segment – it’s worth mentioning that the value of your home will go up whether or not it’s paid off! You could buy a dividend paying ETF with low volatility and beat your interest rate. Paid off house is an awful investment and illiquid – much easier to sell a stock than a house in case of an emergency.

      Ok I’ll unsubscribe now since you think Sam from FTX is a good guy. He’s in bed with Blackrock and wants to centralise and monopolise the crypto space. A typical Democrat. You obviously haven’t seen the legislation he’s proposing for cryptos
