00:03 Bitcoin is a peaceful revolution, which means 00:05 the stupidity and insanity of what's 00:08 going on out there in the world does not 00:11 have to mess up your money. Here's what 00:13 I mean. So, Bitcoin is insulated from 00:16 the stupidity and insanity of Washington 00:18 DC, for example. Over the last few 00:20 months, we have learned that the 00:23 Washington DC has zero interest in 00:25 cutting spending at all. Not even one 00:27 iota. 00:29 Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, 00:31 did his best to try to convince the 00:34 politicians in Washington to cut 00:36 basically even a penny. The answer is 00:39 no. We're not going to cut anything. The 00:40 Republicans don't want to cut spending. 00:42 The Democrats don't want to cut 00:43 spending. Nobody wants to cut spending. 00:45 It's absolutely insane. To pay for their 00:48 just absolutely insatiable appetite to 00:51 spend other people's money, they're 00:53 going to have to print a ton of money. 00:55 Now, without Bitcoin, I'd be sitting 00:57 there and I'd be upset, right? because 00:59 they're going to print a ton of money 01:00 and it's going to make life harder for 01:02 me and my kids and my grandkids and you 01:04 know all of that. But guess what? We're 01:06 insulated from that because we are not 01:08 on a US dollar standard. We are on a 01:10 Bitcoin standard. Bitcoin is a peaceful 01:13 revolution. Bitcoin is a means of opting 01:16 out and deciding that the stupid and 01:19 insane actions of others don't have to 01:22 directly impact you. At least if those 01:24 actions are happening in Washington DC, 01:26 for example, as it relates to the 01:28 finances of the United States, um you 01:31 can just opt out of that. So, um they 01:33 may print a ton of money. They will, you 01:36 know, they will. They have to. There's 01:37 no other way. But it doesn't have to 01:40 destroy the purchasing power of my money 01:41 because my money is Bitcoin. And the 01:43 more of their money they print, the more 01:45 valuable my money becomes. And every one 01:48 of my kids has a Bit key. And they have 01:51 Bitcoin safely stored away on Bit Key in 01:54 cold storage out of the greedy and 01:56 grubby hands of everybody that wants to 01:59 make stupid and idiotic decisions in 02:01 Washington DC. When I was out uh 02:03 campaigning across two different 02:05 election cycles, uh I knocked on 8,500 02:09 doors. 8500 02:11 myself. 8,500 02:14 doors myself. And a lot of people were 02:16 worried. A lot of people were worried 02:18 about things that were happening in the 02:19 country, things that were happening in 02:21 Washington. What are we going to do 02:22 about our national debt? You know, the 02:24 country is drowning in debt every which 02:26 way. What are we going to do about it? 02:28 And Bitcoin is a peaceful revolution. 02:30 It's an opportunity to say, even if the 02:32 insanity never stops, opting out. I am 02:37 exercising the peaceful revolution of 02:40 just saying no. saying, "I'm not going 02:42 to hold my money in something that 02:44 someone else can print out of thin air 02:46 and destroy the value." You know, the 02:49 United States may end up in a bunch of 02:50 stupid wars that we shouldn't be 02:52 involved in. And we will spend trillions 02:55 of dollars fighting stupid wars that 02:57 nobody can win that kill a bunch of 02:59 people, which is awful. And I'm going to 03:01 do my best to try to avoid the United 03:03 States ending up in that place. But if 03:06 the United States ends up in that place, 03:09 even in spite of my best efforts, guess 03:12 what? It's not going to affect my money 03:14 because my money is not in the US 03:16 dollar. So the stupid and irrational and 03:19 insane decisions of numerous people can 03:23 have numerous stupid, insane, and 03:25 idiotic impacts on you. Coin lets you 03:29 opt out of a large percentage of those 03:32 negative effects. the government 03:34 spending, the irrational stupidity, uh 03:37 the debasing of the currency, all of 03:39 that, you can just walk away and say, 03:41 "Hey, that's okay. You know, I'm in 03:44 Bitcoin." And so, I've dedicated a big 03:47 part of my life to not only uh, you 03:49 know, living on a Bitcoin standard, but 03:51 also encouraging as many other people to 03:54 live on a Bitcoin standard as well. And 03:56 eventually the more of us that decide to 03:59 exercise our right to a peaceful re 04:02 revolution by opting out and opting into 04:05 the Bitcoin system rather than the US 04:08 dollar system, the higher percentage of 04:10 us that make a decision to do that, the 04:12 fewer and fewer people that there are 04:14 left fighting over the US dollar, 04:17 eventually they will destroy the US 04:19 dollar. They will. The people who 04:20 control the US dollar will eventually 04:22 destroy it. But again, your kids, your 04:26 grandkids, and you yourself, you don't 04:28 have to be part of that. You can opt out 04:30 of that system. And that's my goal. My 04:32 goal is for myself, my kids, my 04:34 grandkids, and the people I know and 04:36 love, for as many of those people to opt 04:38 out of the US dollar system as possible 04:40 to opt into the Bitcoin system and 04:43 therefore insulate themselves from the 04:46 stupidity and insanity of the world 04:48 around them. Now, obviously, all of us 04:50 should continue to do our absolute best 04:53 to positively impact the world. I still 04:55 spend tons of money um positively trying 04:58 to impact the world, to try to keep us 05:00 out of wars, to try to control 05:02 government spending, to try to 05:04 discourage idiotic government behavior. 05:07 But I also know that I am not always 05:10 going to be successful and will often 05:12 you know the stupidity and idiotic 05:14 behaviors of others is going to have 05:16 negative affection uh effects on our 05:18 country. And the best way you can do uh 05:20 the best thing you can do even you know 05:23 while while fighting to make the world a 05:25 better place which we should all do 05:27 simultaneously while fighting to make 05:29 the world a better place for the benefit 05:31 of as many people as we can benefit. We 05:33 can also opt out of the monetary system 05:36 that is in the that is going to 05:38 self-destruct and Bitcoin is the only 05:41 way of doing that. It's a beautiful and 05:43 elegant and just incredible peaceful 05:46 revolution and I'd encourage you to be 05:48 part of that. I certainly am. And I I'm 05:51 a lot more peaceful as a result. Instead 05:54 of everything that happens in Washington 05:56 DC automatically getting under my skin, 05:58 a lot of it I'm like, look, I did 06:00 everything I could to make things 06:02 better. They did stupid stuff anyway. At 06:04 least it doesn't affect my money. You 06:07 can sleep at night knowing that no 06:08 matter how stupid things are in 06:10 Washington DC, at least it doesn't 06:13 affect your Bitcoin. At least the the 06:15 dumber it gets in the long term, the 06:17 higher your Bitcoin goes because the 06:19 more people opt out of the system and 06:21 join the peaceful revolution. So if you 06:23 haven't already, I would encourage you 06:25 join the peaceful revolution of Bitcoin 06:28 and higher percentage of your assets 06:30 that are in Bitcoin, the greater degree 06:32 to which you have joined that peaceful 06:34 revolution. Have a great day everyone. 06:36 Thanks.
