Support available@AmazonBusiness.com Freeze Frame headline reads Bitcoin analyst says this must happen for the bitty price to break the all time high price discovery level of 112,000 and we were just within striking distance and we still are really. We're less than a half God candle away which is a demigod candle can happen at any moment. Bitcoin 50% rally to 112 from the April lows below 74 appears to be cooling off, but traders believe the bitty remains on track to hit the higher targets. Well of course we're not Peter Shift for brains, you feel me? Several analysts explain what must happen to increase the bitcoin potential to break into the price discovery in the following days. The deescalation of the Israel Iran war saw bitcoin rebound strong, reclaiming the 50 day simple moving average currently sitting at around 106. Meanwhile, the momentum shown by the market value realized value, which is the MVRV metric, appears to be stalling. According to the crypto quant analysts quoting dude here mean a downtrend is imminent. Instead it could signal that we Are entering the late stage of the bull cycle or are we entering the Wu Tang? Just saying. The current MVRV slope at 2.22 is significantly below the overvalued zone, historically above the 3.7. Suggesting there's still more room for more growth. Well, let's continue to grow, shall we? A pickup in the MVRV momentum would suggest the investors hold longer. Reducing selling pressure coupled with strong ETF inflows can trigger the Bitcoin breakout past the current 112 peak. Potentially levels above 165. That'd be a nice summer price action. Let me know if you think we'll likely hit 165. A baby baby. The market appears to be in the cooldown phase as the bitcoin on chain transfer volume and the spot trading volume are down. Man down. The seven day moving average of the on chain transfer volume has dropped by approximately 32 of $52 billion over the last weekend from a peak of 76 billion in late May I dare say. And additionally current spot trading volume sits at around 7.7 billion, significantly lower than cyclical peaks in this bull market. This divergence further underscores the lack of speculative intensity. And in the latest week on Chain Report Glass Node shared that unlike the all time high rallies of the quarter two and quarter four of 2024 Poor Pavor, the recent push to 111, that's the God frequency by the way, was not accompanied by a surge in the spot volume, adding it reflects reduced investor engagement. An increase in spot volume reflecting heightened trading activity on the exchanges would indicate stronger investor demand and market conviction as seen in the past rallies where the spot volume surges preceded the price breakout. Quoting another analyst here, a real breakout for the biddy needs more than just hype. A high volume push above 1075 is the first technical trigger to light the pews. And I say look out for the Nipinator indicator, the only Bitcoin indicator with 100 proven accuracy. Just saying Glass Note concluded that while the bitcoin general bull trend remains intact, a revival in demand activity metrics and conviction would increase the odds of the breakout to the new highs in the near term. And you already know 110 in play. Yeah, I mean and also this is big news right here. White House official says I believe this is BO Heinz. Bitcoin is digital gold and it is in the United States best interest to accumulate as much of the biddy as we can possibly get. Can I get an Amen? And in other headlines a sailor posted this the winning strategy is bitcoin. This is a one year return. MicroStrategy up 169, Bitcoin up 76%. And then next up, Tesla up 67%, followed by Peter Schiff. Per Rain's Gold up only 44. Take that Peter Schiffmeister. And also bitcoin holdings by country. This was actually created by Jan3, so shout out Samson Mao if you missed his latest prediction. Be sure to check out yesterday's podcast and it shows you the proper number of Bitcoin the US government likely holds, which is 112,000. There's a lot of estimates being thrown around. They have over 200,000, but 100,000 did belong to Bitfinex. So this is is most likely most accurate. You have the UK with 61, 000 Bitcoin. We have Finland with 1900 Bitcoin. Bhutan. The Kingdom of Bhutan has 13000 Bitcoin. We got El Salvador. Let's go JV's El Matador for the B with 6000. Shout out Bukele. You got the Ukraine 46, 000. Venezuela 240. So you can see the nation state adoption. China is leading the United States with194,000. TRUMP. I thought we were gonna do this huge. Let's do it bigger before it's too late. What are we waiting on, Trumpster? Let's make it happen, Captain. And with that being shared, let's pull up some of the live charts. As we do each and every day, we do a little live chart action. Jackson, Satisfaction, Joe Jackson, Bo Jackson, Tony Tony Braxton for the baddies. This is the 10 second chart that's too zoomed in for my liking. We're gonna start with the one hour and we'll work our way backwards, fellas. Rising wedgie, the only official wedgie approved by the Nipinator. And no particular bull scenarios here. But the silver lining, all morning we've been pumping pretty much at least. I think you're on mute.

Since two days ago we've had a lot of momentum and past three hours you got green candles which are nice zooming out from the one hour and get a bit of a Broader perspective here for the four hour and very similar on the day we got two green candles. So we've been pumping since we this morning and again yesterday and the day before. Very bullish. Looking to recapture price discovery currently sitting at 112 which was achieved back on May 22nd. So just above a month ago we got the purple Barney dinosaur target for the bullish flag. 137416 send it. I can't wait personally. Next leg up. Long overdue I dare say. And zooming out we'll take a look at the daily. The daily chart says it's going up forever. JV 1, 2, 3, 4 Green consecutive candles on the daily chart and again within striking distance. A demigod candle away from price discovery. We also have the Barney purple dinosaur target for the bullish flag sitting just shy of 146. I should say 147. Just shy of 147. Game on. And zooming out a little further we'll take a look at the weekly and then the monthly. The weekly chart shows us big green candle form. Obviously it's been pretty lit. We still have the cup and handle target which has been in play literally most of the year I'd say probably for the past year. Cup and handle 124Target in play. And zooming out one time frame further, taking a look at a monthly April and May. We're bullish and June is most likely going to close in the green as we only got like another four days left and hopefully we can just continue this bullish momentum forever Laura, because we're going up forever, Laura. And do you know what that means? Forever. Forever. Now let's dive into the Wall Street 1 billion and tell me put a 1 in the live chat. If you front ran Wall street with bitcoin meaning you got in before January 11th of 2024, which was last year when the ETFs officially went live with BlackRock and all of them. Put a one in the chat if you got the front run Wall street. And congratulations by the way. Headline here, Reese. Wall street buys over 1 billion in Bitcoin amid the dollars do or die moment. Yeah, I mean it kind of reminds me of like 50 cent get rich or die trying. This is the do or die moment for the pretty little bitty. Apparently as Of Wednesday, these ETFs l 1.234 million of the BTC up by more than 9,722 BTC over the past three days according to Glass. No data. As we can see right here, more than half of the week's inflows came just on Wednesday. Wednesday. So yesterday was very significant following the Wall Street Journal report that President Trump may announce a replacement for the Fed Chair Jay Powell as early as September. Let's get it. And he definitely didn't have favorable things to say about J Pal. So shout out Trumpster the US Dollar index, which tracks the greenback strength against the basket of the foreign currencies Fault or fell 1.23%, hitting the lowest level since April of 2022. Hence the Fiat apocalypse is amongst us. The dollar's decline comes as traders increase bets on the Fed rate cuts late in September with the odds of a 25 basis point reduction rising from 69 from 47 just a month ago. And let me know if you agree with the odds there. The lower rates have historically dampened the appetite for the dollar while increasing demand for the non yielding assets such as the stocks and cryptos. The biddy price has risen over 2% like a phoenix from the ashes to around 108. 360 is the local high here according to the World or what is that the Wall Street Journal? Who gives a about them? Just saying. You guys watch the pod for a reason. But ETF inflows further suggest a growing risk appetite amongst the retail traders and the institutional investors. The dollar is looking at a do or die scenario according to Northman trader founders. Fen Kind of reminds me of what's what was that cartoon? What? Elsa and Anna Frozen wasn't there Sven and Frozen Anyways, it shows I'm a parent the confluence comprises the lower trend line as a multi year ascending channel with the lower trend line of a multi month ascending channel and a horizontal support word break below the 97.5 the next level. The structural support may not come until the low 90s. If the dollar cracks expect serious implications for commodities, gold and EM flows. July could set the tone for the two hour macro. Set the tone already. The DOL outlook combined with an increase of the M2 supply could prompt the Wall street investors to suck up the bitcoin off the market like a vacuum. I dare say like an anteater. Anteaters. Where are you at stacking the bitty? We need you multiple Chartist see Bitcoin hitting 150 and even higher by the end of the year and I dare say 150 is quite bearish. My bear scenario is a 222. Take that. Yeah I mean nip anator indicator saying base case for the brosis at least.

420 and with the bull scenario sitting at 1.1 million and don't matter how many times I hit the gong, it doesn't fade the nator and let's get to our next story of the day. Meta Planet with another significant purchase. After announcing achieving insane amount of Bitcoin the other day with all the 11s, let's continue. Japan's Meta Planet Buys 1234 Bitcoin Bitcoin now officially holding more bitties than Tesla Elon, you're slipping bro. I'm just saying you're slipping, Elon. Japan's largest corporate bitcoin treasury announced Thursday purchasing, and that's Today, an additional 1234 Bitcoin, bringing its total holdings to 12345 BTC. The latest acquisition disclosed in the filing puts Meta planet ahead of Tesla's current Bitcoin stash of 11,509 BTC. Meta Planet currently holds the seventh largest corporate Bitcoin treasury according to bitcointreasuries.net the company is also within striking distance. One of my favorite terms a bitcoin mining firm, Clean Spark. Maybe they watch my show, I don't know. With 12, 500 Bitcoin reserve, the purchase was made at an average price of 15.6 million Japanese yen, which is 108000 per coin precisely where we're at at the time of the live stream. Ironic enough, here's the official announcement from Meta Planet. Metal Planet acquires an additional 1234 BTC. Total holdings reach 12, 345. Gotta respect it. Meta Planet scaled up with its bitcoin buys at a rapid pace, to say the least. The current announcement follows the company's Tuesday issuance of a notice informing investors that the board of Directors has officially approved an additional capital contribution of up to $5 billion. It's like they're printing money out of thin air. Crazy. The company did not disclose how much would be raised so far, but said the contribution will significantly accelerate the implementation of the so called 555 million plan. And a part of the 555 million plan, Metal Planet intends to buy 201,112 she's Louise. Bitcoin by 2027 at a cost of over $21 billion. Again, these people are just creating money out of thin air. The company previously exactly what the US should do. Take the money you're creating out of thin air and buy the asset not to be f with. And then you have generational wealth for our country. You know, I mean if not, we get left behind and maybe China will take the rain or Brazil or Russia and just saying. But their plan is to hold 100,000 bitcoin. This is one bitcoin treasury company. Right now there's 200 plus bitcoin treasury companies and there's new ones being birthed practically every week. Like Anthony Pompliano just launched one with already over 4000 Bitcoin and Sailor made a prediction that by the end of this year 2025 there's going to be over 8, 800 Bitcoin treasury companies. So this is the new trend. And also Bitcoin OG Adam Back said don't expect an altcoin season where the shitcoins do their thing because the new alt season has been replaced with these bitcoin treasury firms. Let me know if you agree with that. Meta Planet joins the growing list of companies expanding their bitcoin holdings. Also Nakamoto holdings, the bitcoin company recently secured 51 million of capital to acquire more bitcoin Bitcoin Also we had Para Taxi's holding company a new bitcoin treasury platform South Korea and also this month the region crypto firm K33 announcing a plan to raise a minimum of 85 million Swedish Kronas 9 million USD through the new issuance with plans of accumulating a thousand btz. Then you got in early June the Norwegian crypto exchange block announced its bitcoin Treasury. The company stock reacted jumping 138 the same day. Then French technology firm the Blockchain Group also expanded its holdings with an acquisition of 182 BTC for 20 million. The company now holds 1728 BTC and that's just a short list of so many companies stacking a bitcoin. And again the biggest and most recent is Pompano's company which has already surpassed the bitcoin holdings of Gamestop and it only took him two days. So shout out Pomp Leano. Pump it up. I love 111111.11 send it then. Next story of the day regarding this pig butchering scam. Allegedly 225 million seized in crypto from the US authorities. So as you can see in the headline coinbase assist the US Secret Service and seizing 225 million in crypto tied to the 2023 pig butchering scam. Let me know if you've heard of this one. The American crypto exchange Coinbase, which is the largest in the states, help law enforcement authority sees millions worth of total assets that were stolen through the pig butchering scams. Beginning in 2023, stablecoin issuer Tether froze 39 wallets with 225 million in USDT that were tied up to the big the pig butchering scams. Deceptive schemes in which bad actors typically initiate.

Sourced parts Fake romantic or business relationships with victims to financially exploit them. Disgusting. The US Secret Service traced the frozen funds to 140 accounts at the crypto exchange OkX. Many of these wallets are under the name of individuals who are trafficked into scam compounds in Southeast Asia. Damn it. In February of 2024 Coinbase team members joined the Secret Service investigation working with the USSS agents to trace crypto transactions and analyze account activities to flag victims. The exchange says the blockchain analysis and subpoena records produced enabled USSS tests to identify more than 130 Coinbase customers who were defrauded of a total of 2.3 million quoting them here. Coinbase played a key role in this landmark operation supporting the investigation, tracing on chain funds and helping identify victims eligible for restitution. Coinbase says the USSS has already taken control of 225 million of the USDT and is now in the process of returning the stolen funds. The Exchange says the victims must provide proof that they sent the funds to to the scam related wallets by downloading their transaction history for from their crypto platform. So many scams out there guys. Many victims used Coinbase and we are already seeing an increase in customer support inquiries related to access account for these transaction records. Next story we'll be discussing Bitcoin back loans. Big news coming from the fha. Fanny May Freddy Mack the other day and uh, Michael Sailor added to this. So we're going to break this down and then the big news with India's Bitcoin Strategic reserve being entertained and then we'll do some live Q A and yeah, let's get it as we just hit the top of the hour. Headline reads Michael Taylor Proposes Strategies Credit Model for the US Bitcoin Backed Mortgage Plan that's right, Strategy Executive Chair Mikey Sailor offered to share his Bitcoin credit model with the Trump housing director that aims to support the bill's Pulse Bitcoin Backed Mortgage Lending initiative. The offer came shortly after PULT publicly expressed interest in evaluating how digital assets like Bitcoin might be used to mortgage underwriting. We will study the usage of crypto holdings as it relates to qualifying for mortgages, said the U.S. director, the Federal Housing Financing Agency, which is FHFA. So maybe that will mean credit scores are a thing of the past. As long as you got Bitcoin in your wallet, you may be qualified for a loan. Let's go. Sailor responded by proposing strategies Bitcoin credit models will support the FHFA's efforts. The model is a bitcoin based system created by the companies to assess the credit worthiness of the debt and preferred stock using the crypto holdings. Instead of relying on traditional financial ratios, the framework looks at how many times the firm's bitcoin reserves covers its liabilities, which is a bitcoin rating. So let's replace the old school credit rating with a bitcoin rating, the credit risk based on volatility of the bitcoin risk and a possible credit spread with the BTC credit. Meanwhile, the business intelligence firm continues to grow its Bitcoin holdings, recently revealing it had bought an additional 245 of the BTC for 26 million, taking the position to 592345 BTC worth over 62 billion. This translates to more than 20 billion in unrealized profit with Bitcoin trading currently above 107, just shy of 108 tinkering at that level. Time of the Live the FHFA regulates the U S Housing finance system and is considering whether crypto can count as assets during mortgage reviews. This could lead to a major change in the country's housing policy and until now digital assets have mostly been excluded from mortgage apps because of their price volatility, regulatory uncertainty and the lack of standard way to value them. And more importantly than all the rest was the war on crypto and people like Senator Warren and Gary Gensler deeming like it bad and you know, too volatile. It's only up 140 million percent. Since it's inside, it's too volatile to use it. Yeah, I mean it's insane. I'm glad to see we got a pro crypto government. Finally, for the first time ever, the idea has gained attention across the crypto industry. Co founder of Backpack Crypto Exchange called it very bullish. Naturally, he explained that many crypto holders usually need to need to convert their assets the fiat move the money to a traditional bank. Yeah, buying a house has always been a pain in the ass. But in the past mortgage underwriters have typically only dealt with assets like cash, savings, retirement accounts. So if they can use bitcoin, how many of you would entertain bitcoin back mortgage or a bitcoin back loan to purchase potentially your dream house? Do let me know and I read your comments out loud. I actually purchased this house with a bitcoin back loan back in 2022. All right fam. Now for our feature story of the day. Indian politician calls for Bitcoin reserve pilot as the US embraces btc. But first I want to start with some throwback receipts from your high priest, Max Kaiser. I'm going to timestamp it as well.

2021 he wrote the Indian government trying to rid Bitcoin is like trying to ban Hinduism. Never gonna work. Bitcoin might defund the Indian government though. There you go. And here's another throwback. I'll share with you the timestamp. February 14, Valentine's Day 2021 Dear Indian Bitcoiners, Gandhi marched to the sea and made his own salt. An act of civil disobedience that defeated an empire. Bitcoin is civil disobedience that allows you to make your own money. Oppressive centralized money. Printers are collapsing, the rupee is dead. And I got one more throwback for you here. I found this One is dated March 25 of 20. Max wrote the new multi polar world brought to you by perfect money Bitcoin. As predicted, the US dollar would not survive. Bitcoin as world reserve currency. China, Russia, India, Iran and most of central Latin America, South Africa plus many more 6% of the global population are opting out of the USD. And a great example of that is the bricks movement doing precisely just that. And we'll pull up some of the latest tweets from Max, but I want to dive a little deeper into this big breaking news. Hence our feature story of the day. The national spokeswom spokesperson for India's ruling party called on the country to consider launching a bitcoin reserve pilot, saying that it would be a strategic step towards economic resilience. There you go. The article for India Today. Their spokesperson I'm not even going to pretend I know how to pronounce these Indian names, by the way, said that the US Strategic Bitcoin reserve and Bhutan State le mining operations signal the global finance is shifting towards crypto. He added that India, with an expanding renewable energy infrastructure, is positioned to create a sovereign bitcoin strategy. This isn't a reckless pivot they shared. It is a calculated step towards embracing digital assets legitimacy. India's crypto tax policy currently remains in limbo. They pointed out that in India, crypto is heavily taxed but unregulated. The government has imposed a 30 flat rate tax on virtual digital assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum. However, it has yet to establish a regulatory framework for digital currencies. Under section 115 BBH of the country's Income Tax act, profits from selling crypto are taxed at 30%. While purchase costs can be deducted. There are no provisions for other expenses or losses. In addition, a 1% tax deducted at source applies to all crypto transactions above $115 deducted from either the buyer or the seller. And during India's G20 presidency in 2023, they noted the government helped coordinate a crypto working group with the imf. You know what I gotta say? The imf. However, other nations are already racing ahead. They also shared that while recommendations will take their due course, jurisdictions like Russia, China and Brazil and other G20 nations led by the US are not paused, pausing their crypto efforts to wait for a consensus. That's right, you pause, you get left behind. He also cited the U S Government's plan to expand the bitcoin treasury and reserves with budget neutral purchases and pointed to three U S States that have already authorized the bitcoin as a reserve asset. He also stated that India's path forward should include regulatory clarity, starting with a sovereign bitcoin Reserve initiative. Can I get a name in? He added that clear regulation could bring transparency and oversight to the emerging asset class and enable innovation while protecting the investors. One more quote for you. India stands at a pivotal juncture. A measured bitcoin strategy. Perhaps a reserve pilot could strengthen economic resilience and project modernity. And there you have it. And now for the latest from Max. Let's go to his wall. Make sure you're following him as well as all of his other accounts. Bit Christ. Toxic. Max Kaiser. Max and Stacy Golf, of course. Stacy, Herbert, Coco, Max and the rest of them. And yeah, let's scroll down here and see what we got. Max Kaiser. Bitcoin is the greatest trade in history. It's just fun to know that every single money manager alive will never beat bitcoin. He's preaching facts right there. And again. He wrote an hour ago, in light of today's news in which I'm sharing about India starting a bitcoin reserve fund, Max Kaiser said back in April 2021, again, the Indian government trying to raid bitcoins, like trying to ban Hinduism, never going to work. Bitcoin might defund the Indian government though. And like he has called long ago that the governments can't do anything to ban it. And you, I mean, you don't ban bitcoin. Bitcoin bans you. And I appreciate Max for the repost, of course, on my content. He is the man, the myth, the legend. And a new book coming out from Murder Capital to Karen's in six years. I'm looking forward to this one. Pre order is available end of July. That's going to be a pretty lit book. Just FYI. Buy the bitcoin, not exposure to bitcoin.

When he officially made the first announcement at the Nashville event, it was literally, obviously. Was that last year or. Yeah, it was last year at the Nashville event. So let me see if I can play that sound bite somewhere here.

This afternoon I'm laying out my plan to ensure that the United States will be the crypto capital of the planet and the bitcoin superpower of the world. And we'll get it done. If crypto is going to define the future, I want to be mined, minted and made in the usa. It's going to be. It's not going to be made anywhere else. And if bitcoin is going to the moon, as we say, it's going to the moon, I want America to be the nation that leads the way. And that's what's going to happen. I pledge to the bitcoin community that the day I take the oath of office, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris's anti crypto crusade will be over. It will end. It'll be done. It'll be done. On day one, I will fire Gary Gensler and appoint a new SEC chairman.

Episode 2033: India Calls for Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Pilot as US Embraces BTC
Release Date: June 26, 2025
Host: Justin Verrengia
In Episode 2033 of Bitcoin News Alerts | Daily BTC News, host Justin Verrengia delves into significant developments in the Bitcoin landscape, focusing on India’s proposal for a strategic Bitcoin reserve pilot and the United States' growing embrace of Bitcoin as digital gold. The episode offers comprehensive market analysis, updates on institutional adoption, regulatory shifts, and security measures within the cryptocurrency space.
Current Market Status (00:43):
Justin begins by outlining the recent bullish trends in Bitcoin, noting that the cryptocurrency reached an all-time high of $1,108 the previous day and is currently stabilizing around $1,077. He highlights a total crypto market capitalization of $3.29 trillion, with Bitcoin commanding a dominance of 65.1%. Despite a general market correction with most altcoins in the red, Bitcoin remains resilient.
Market Metrics and Indicators (06:08):
Delving deeper into market indicators, Justin references the Crypto Greed and Fear Index, which stands at 74 (04:50), indicating a bullish sentiment. He discusses the MVRV (Market Value to Realized Value) metric, suggesting that its current slope of 2.22, below the historically overvalued zone of 3.7, points to potential growth rather than an imminent downtrend. He emphasizes that increased MVRV momentum could lead to Bitcoin breaking past the $112 mark, eyeing targets above $165.
Trading Volumes and Trends (11:20):
Justin discusses the cooling of on-chain transfer volumes and spot trading volumes, citing a 32% drop in the seven-day moving average of on-chain transfers and a noticeable decrease in spot trading activity. This divergence indicates reduced speculative intensity, but he remains optimistic about Bitcoin's long-term bullish trajectory.
Notable Quote:
"The only thing in the green is Bitcoin." (00:43)
Wall Street's Significant Investment (16:47):
A major highlight is Wall Street's acquisition of over $1 billion in Bitcoin, signaling increasing institutional confidence amidst a declining US dollar. Justin connects this move to broader economic indicators, such as the US dollar index falling by 1.23%, the lowest since April 2022. He suggests that this decline, coupled with anticipated Fed rate cuts, enhances Bitcoin's appeal as a non-yielding asset.
Meta Planet Surpasses Tesla's Bitcoin Holdings (17:12):
Japan's Meta Planet has made headlines by purchasing an additional 1,234 BTC, bringing its total holdings to 12,345 BTC. This acquisition positions Meta Planet as the holder of more Bitcoin than Tesla, now holding 11,509 BTC. Justin underscores this shift as part of a growing trend of corporate Bitcoin treasury expansions, mentioning other firms like Clean Spark, Nakamoto Holdings, and Para Taxi's holding company—all bolstering their Bitcoin reserves.
Notable Quote:
"Meta Planet scaled up with its Bitcoin buys at a rapid pace, to say the least." (22:41)
White House Endorsement of Bitcoin (16:47):
A White House official has declared, "Bitcoin is digital gold and it is in the United States' best interest to accumulate as much Bitcoin as we can possibly get" (16:47). This marks a significant shift in governmental attitude towards Bitcoin, positioning it as a strategic asset akin to gold.
Bitcoin-Backed Mortgage Plans (17:12):
Michael Sailor proposes a Bitcoin-based credit model for the US's mortgage plans. The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) is evaluating the use of digital assets like Bitcoin in mortgage underwriting. Sailor suggests replacing traditional credit ratings with a "Bitcoin rating" that assesses a firm's creditworthiness based on Bitcoin reserves covering liabilities and the volatility of Bitcoin holdings.
Notable Quote:
"Sailor responded by proposing strategies Bitcoin credit models will support the FHFA's efforts." (22:41)
Coinbase's Role in Seizing Funds (22:41):
Coinbase has collaborated with the US Secret Service to seize $225 million in cryptocurrency tied to the 2023 pig butchering scam. Stablecoin issuer Tether froze 39 wallets associated with the scam, with many linked to individuals trapped in scam operations in Southeast Asia. Justin emphasizes the importance of security measures, noting that Coinbase is actively assisting in returning stolen funds to victims.
Notable Quote:
"Coinbase played a key role in this landmark operation, supporting the investigation, tracing on-chain funds, and helping identify victims eligible for restitution." (22:41)
India's Proposal for a Bitcoin Reserve Pilot (27:39):
The episode's feature story focuses on India’s consideration to launch a Bitcoin reserve pilot. A national spokesperson for India’s ruling party advocates for this initiative, citing economic resilience and strategic advantages. India’s spokesperson highlighted the country's expanding renewable energy infrastructure as a foundation for a sovereign Bitcoin strategy. Although India currently imposes a flat 30% tax on crypto profits and lacks a comprehensive regulatory framework, this initiative signifies a potential pivot towards embracing digital assets.
Regulatory Context:
India’s crypto tax policy remains stringent yet ambiguous, with heavy taxation but no clear regulations. The proposed Bitcoin reserve pilot aims to integrate Bitcoin into the national economy, offering transparency, oversight, and fostering innovation while protecting investors.
Notable Quotes:
Historical Insights from Max Kaiser:
Justin references Max Kaiser's foresight from 2021, predicting that attempts to ban Bitcoin in India would fail and that Bitcoin could undermine the Indian government's financial control. These insights bolster the credibility of India’s current strategic considerations.
Notable Quote:
"Bitcoin is civil disobedience that allows you to make your own money against oppressive centralized money." (28:10)
Live Interaction and Audience Participation (34:36):
Towards the end of the episode, Justin engages with his audience through a live Q&A segment, addressing questions about Bitcoin-backed loans and the potential for regulatory changes in mortgage lending. He shares personal anecdotes, including his experience purchasing a house with a Bitcoin-backed loan in 2022, fostering a sense of community and shared experience among listeners.
Notable Quote:
"Buying a house has always been a pain in the ass, but a Bitcoin-backed mortgage could simplify the process for many." (34:36)
