Today is POT episode 2058. I'm your host JV, it's July 21st, 2025. It's a Monday fun day. Happy 420 in advance. The market did pull back some, but barely. Small Correction Less than 1%. Pulling up coin 360. As you can see here, Bitcoin's still above 117 at the time of the live stream. We have ether and a lot of the alts actually making a big ether was 38 yesterday. Today it's still 37. 5 or 3750 I should say. XRP next leg up as well. It's currently $3.54. Salana is the big top gainer and the top cryptos up 8% on the day. And checking out coinmarketcap.com the crypto market cap is coming in at 3.9 trillion. The all time high is around 4 trillion. So on the cusp of that right now bitcoin market cap today is 2.3 trillion. We got 212 billion worth of volume for the past 24. The Bitcoin dominance is coming in today 59.7%. It's been a hot minute since we've been under 60% dominance. We climbed up to like 65% and then it corrected some and as you can see with the ether dominance it's actually been on the the climb. As you can see today, 11.6% for eth dominance which suggests the alts are making a run which is precisely what we're witnessing right now. Checking out top 100 crypto gainers past 24 hours. You can see the pudgy penguins leading the pack up 14% followed by CASP up 12% followed by Conflux up 12% which als if any. Are you bullish, huh? For the bull holla. And checking out the crypto Vs get a visual perspective on the day with the nip lick indicator of course. And as you can see the bulk of the market actually in the red but there are some respective gainers across the board. Zooming out for the weekly. Virtually everything in the green minus Monero believe it or not and a coin called Pump. I wonder if that's pump fun. That know shitcoin platform. Probably more than likely but anyways zooming out a little further, checking out the monthly. The monthly very similar scenario. Virtually everything back in a green and zooming out for a 12 month broader perspective. It's a mixed bag but I say 6040 red over green and checking out the crypto greed and fear index and holy, they hit me with an ad. How dare they. Let's See if that disappears. Good. So we're currently at 71 in greed. Yesterday at 72, last week at 74 and last month at 49 neutral, giving us some room to run up. Typically the higher this gets an extreme greed, the more likely of a correction. And I think we have some room to run. And checking out the infamous time chain calendar. We're on block height 906,552. We got 143, 448 blocks until the having in 2028. And as of today, July 21, 2025, you can exchange one fiat monopoly dollar for 855 cents. You heard correct. Proskis 855 sats per dollar. You know what to do. You pick up the stats, put down the gats, pick up some bitcoin caps from a man, sergio over@bitcoin caps.net. today instead of reading other people's TA, I'm going to make up my own because after all it's astrology for the broskis and that's what I love to do. So let's look at some of the live charts starting on the hourly and this is via Coinbase because Coinbase is the largest exchange in the states. Using Trading View. This is live chart action Jackson Satisfaction Jackson. Tony Braxton for the baddies. We're currently hovering above 117,001 hundo making another run after this recent dip. And we do have a bull scenario in play on the one hour. A bull pennant sitting at 134. The current all time high is 1232. So 11,000 higher will take us to that bullish pennant breakout. And also there's a red bull scenario sitting at 124 just shy of current price discovery. And then there Papa Smurf target which we don't even entertain. And it's above a hundred thousand. So take that haters. But zooming out a little further we'll get some different perspective on the charts. Looking at the four hour, one of my favorite charts, Bull pennant formation, which is very bullish. A couple of targets in play. The purple Barney, the dinosaur target is a bull flag sitting at 137. And shout out Barney, how you doing Barney? And checking out the the green target sitting just shy of 135 thou. Bull pennant all time highs in play as per the four hour chart of today. And zooming out a step further, taking a look at the daily. The daily chart shows you a rising wedgie. The only wedgie officially approved by the new Fed chairman Nipster the Nipinator and checking out Purple Target Bull flag again on the daily chart for the bitty live and in the flesh 1464 bull flag on the one day chart and we've had a lot of bullish momentum. Last week we had seven green consecutive candles on the daily which is a great sign. Then we've been correcting since hitting the top roughly six days ago. And there's also a bear scenario in which we don't dare entertain because we don't entertain the Peter Schiffer brains or the Garrett Soloways or the Jim Cramers. And who am I missing? Ms. Yellen Ban zooming out for the weekly rising Wedgie Bull scenario 124. We already came within 7800 striking distance a few days back when we hit the recent top of 123. 2 But that's the cup and handle Target has been in play on the weekly chart for a very long time. Also we just got the strongest meaning highest weekly close of all time consecutively over the past three weeks. Bullish momentum likely to continue in my opinion. But you guys let me know your thoughts. On the other side of that coin there there is Acme Gap so there is a possibility of revisiting like 111 or 112 range but there's no guarantee. Just because there was a gap open from last weekend there's no guarantee we retrace back and close it. But if we were to do so it wouldn't be unhealthy, it would actually be a healthy thing. So either way you slice it, I want you to tell me, do you think we likely continue to rise retesting all time highs or do you think we'll correct back down to those CME futures gaps? Maybe another 6,000, 5,000 from here. Let me know your thoughts and read those comments out loud. And taken one step further back, they say when in doubt, just zoom the fuck out.

JV that's right. Zooming out on the Monthly this is a better perspective because you can see 1, 2, 3, 4 green consecutive months in the biz. Obviously the fourth one you see we're currently in. It's July 21st. We got another 10 days until Tammy's birth and guess what? We got some birthday music provided by Sweet Bitty so you already know. I'm looking forward to playing those jams by the way. But you can see the bullish chart on on the Monthly and the more you zoom out, the more bullish it is. And I dare say Bitcoin's been on a 17 year consecutive bull run since the inception of the Genesis block. I don't think you can con convince me otherwise, but there you have it. Yo. As we continue above 117, let me know where you feel the pretty little bitty likely, but let's dive into the latest with the Gigachad. The one and only Mikey Sailor strategy adds 740 million a bitcoin as the price surge past 122 he was living up to his word. He said he'll be buying the Bitcoin top forever and precisely what he's doing. Sailor Strategy, the world's largest public hodler of the bitcoin, continued stacking bitcoin last week, making the announcement today, which we knew because yesterday he posted the Sailor tracker which we pointed out the day after. He always makes the announcement, so it's always a precursor of a big announcement. So strategy acquired 6,220 Bitcoin for 739.8 million during the week ending Sunday. According to the USSCC Strategies, new Bitcoin purchases were made at an average price of just short of 119per coin, with Bitcoin starting the week at historic levels122 as you know, we just hit the123.2 top before dropping to the intra week low of 116 and we're currently floating just above that. The acquisition increase Strategies bitcoin holdings to now 67.7.7 BTC purchased for about 43 billion at an average buy price of 71,700 per pretty little Bitty with the new purchase strategies year to date, bitcoin yield added another 6% increasing from last week's 20.2% to a current 20.8% according to Sailor. That's pretty lit for a year to date Bitcoin yield. I'd say he's winning and following the latest adjustment strategy Strategies year to day Bitcoin yield is now just 4.2% away from the 25 target which he set, which was initially set when it was 15. Here's the official announcement from the Giga chat here on x strategy acquired 6,220 BTC for 739 million at $180 $18,940 per BTC and achieved a Bitcoin yield of 20.8 year to date and as of 7th 202025 we now huddle 607770 BTC acquired for 43 billion at 71, 700 per coin. Can you say winning? Holy. Introduced in August of 2024 strategies Bitcoin yield metric represents the percentage change in the ratio between the Bitcoin holdings and the company's assumed diluted shares outstanding back in 2024 strategies Bitcoin yield was as high as 74%. Prior to announcing the latest Bitcoin acquisition, Strategy submitted a filing to the SEC on proposed sales of securities for July 14 and according to the filing, Sailor Senior Executive Vice President Wei Ming Xiao. Sounds like someone from Shaolin Wei Mining. Xiao sold another 10,900 strategy shares worth 4.9 million. Now by the way, my old rap name was Shaolin so a lot of my friends my nickname was Xiao. So I actually like seeing that Wei Ming Xiao. Maybe we're brothers. The Latest sale extended 25.7 million MSTR sales by the same executive the previous week. The Bitcoin purchases follow strategies half a million and or half a billion. My apologies in Bitcoin last week with the company Bitcoin holdings surpassing the 600,000 milestone and so far in July strategy has bought 10,455 BTC compared to 17,000 Bitcoin purchased back in June, 26,000 Bitcoin in May and 25 freaking thousand in April. Well here's the deal. As the price goes up you get less and less for the dollar equivalent as the bitcoin Obviously purchasing power is skyrocketing while the purchasing power of the dollar is plummeting in real time. But yeah, next story of the day. Now we got Sailor out of the way. Next up. Regarding the ETPS Exchange traded products 4.4 billion worth of inflows Record breaking gains in the market Crypto investment products posted record breaking inflows last week recording gains for the 14th consecutive week. That's 4812C. Almost four months straight. ETPs recorded 4.4 billion of inflows trading week ending Friday. The inflows came amid Bitcoin surging past a new all time high, hit123.2 on Coinbase before dropping to an intra week low of 116 and we're currently flirting at around 117 at the time of the live with the fresh gains. The year to date inflows of the crypto ETPs climbed to a new high of 27 billion while the total assets under management for the first time broke 220 billion. Ether ETPs also set multiple records last week, hence why it's been back on the climb. While weekly inflows hit double the previous record of 2 billion and the latest inflows came as ETH surged past 75. It's currently flirting at around 38 at the time of the live. We ain't seen price action like this on ETH in years. The highs follow several months of downwards pressure that push eth below 1500. Keep that in mind back in April of this year it wasn't even, it was, you know, 15. It wasn't even 1500. It's insane considering it was 4500 in 2021. Right now the past 13 weeks of inflows now represent 23% of the Ethereum assets under management. Bitcoin ETP inflows remain resilient as Bitcoin reached new highs contrasting with the slowdown seen in early June, a dip attributed to growing caution as Bitcoin neared record levels. According to the latest update and the Nipinator indicator, bitcoin funds posted 2.2 billion of the inflows last week, accounting for 50% of the total crypto ETP inflow. So again, Ether finally making a big move and you know, got a lot of catching up to do yet to Recover from the 4500 all time high. Said back in I believe it was November of 2021. Also despite crypto ETPC and record breaking inflows last week some issuers recorded minor outflows, but that's nothing new. Ark Invest, Kathy Woods Co. And I would throw in there as always with the outflows, which is gbtc, the grayscale Bitcoin Trust. But that's that. We're gonna dive into our next story of the day next up, regarding Bitbo, a headline here reads Bibbo files for the US IPO as crypto custody business surpasses $100 billion. That's right. Bitbo has filed paperwork to pursue an initial public offering, an IPO for the US Highlighting the crypto industry's continued push towards mainstream financial markets. On Monday, Bitgo announced it had confidentially submitted a draft registration statement on Form S1 for the SAC for a proposed IPO, the Class A common stock. At the time of the filing, no determination was made on the number of shares or the price range for the stock offering, and as a publication, the registration statement had not yet appeared on the SEC's EDGAR database, whatever that stands for. To me it's a mystery. You let me know. Bitbo is one of the crypto industry's largest custodians, with assets under custody surpassing 100 billion. Good Lord, that's a tenth of a trillion in the first half of 2025, up from 60 billion at the start of the year, according to the Bloomberg. The IPO comes as the Bitgo seeks to expand its presence overseas, with the company recently securing regulatory approval for the European Union under the Market and Crypto Assets Framework, better known as Micah. As reported, the approval extends Bitco's digital asset services across the eu Shout out to the EU fam Holding it down in addition to securing licensing in the European Union, Bitco is reportedly looking to expand the presence in traditional not all meals are created equal. For instance, breakfast has the spicy egg McMuffin for a limited time and lunch doesn't McDonald's breakfast.

In May, the company was said to be amongst a small group of major crypto firms pursuing a U S Bank charter pending key regulatory developments. Also check this Bitgo is looking to join expanding ranks of publicly traded digital asset firms. According to coingecko, there's currently 46 noteworthy public traded blockchain companies defined as non penny stocks. Of these, 24 are currently listed on the NASDAQ 18 trade over the counter, two are on the New York Stock Exchan and one is listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange. Shout out all my Canadians, eh. And also several digital asset companies are pursuing public listings. Just last week, crypto exchange Bullish filed for an IPO with a C SEC aiming for a listing on the New York Stock Exchange. The company recorded a net income of 80 million for fiscal year last year. Meanwhile, crypto asset management giant Grayscale is also seeking a US stock market debut. Interesting. Having submitted its its filing to the SEC earlier this month. And there you have it. Yeah. But let's continue with a bitty news. Still a lot to share. We did the bitbo. We only got two more stories left. So here's the breakdown of Fashion Tech CEO allegedly defrauded 300 million from investors through fabricated documents and false claims. According to the doj, which I single handedly renamed to the doc. So from the Department of Justice to the Department of Corruption. And I only say that because Epstein's clients are still running this show, if you know what I'm saying. But yeah, the DOJ is charging a fashion tech CEO for allegedly defrauding investors for 300 million by lying about the profits. And a new press release to dog J says it's charging 48 year old Christine Hunsicker. What a name. Christine Hunsicker of Jersey, the CEO and founder of the clothing tech firm. That's an interesting combination. A clothing tech firm firm. How does that even work with numerous crimes after she allegedly forged documents make it appear as if the firm was financially healthy. Fraud, I tell you. Authorities say that the Huck Hunsicker, that's an interesting name. Knew that Castle was in financial distress with limited cash significant expenses. However, to raise more funds to operate the company, she allegedly fabricated income statements, bank records and other documents as a means of tricking investors and to thinking the firm was probably profitable and had cash on hand. Sounds like deja vu with scam. Bankman freed and FTX. Correct me if I'm wrong. And according to the DOJ, Hunsicker raked in a staggering 275 million for Castle. Some of her alleged fraudulent activity include providing an investor with a fake bank account showing the company had 200 million in cash, when in reality it had 1,000x less. What a scammer. She also allegedly falsified the signature to the board of director to make it appear that the firm's board had authorized the grant of stock options allowing her to raise another 20 million. Authorities also alleged the Hunsicker defrauded investors of a new business venture. P180 getting them to invest 30 million using fake information. Sounds like a shit show. All in all, Hunsicker allegedly raised more than 300 from fraudulent practices. And that's not dollars, it's millions. And as stated by U.S. attorney Jay Clayton, which was the ironic the former CEO of the SEC prior to Gensler taken his place. He's the one who actually launched the the still ongoing lawsuit against Ripple Labs before the day he was leaving office when Gary took place. But here's what he says. As alleged Christine Hunicker defrauded investors of hundreds of millions of dollars through document forgery, fabricated audits, material misrepresentation. You know what I say, I don't even care about this story personally. I think the DOJ should go back and focus on, on Epstein's clients as well as the banking trail from the banking cartel who was Epstein's bank, which was JP Morgan Chase. There's a huge trail of, you know, billions of billions of dollars. Follow the money, you'll find the list. However, the doc, the Department of Corruption will probably cover up because unfortunately it seems that Epstein's clients are still running the show. Correct me if I'm wrong, but what are your thoughts? Let me know now for our feature story of the day. Breaking news, Trump's media company reports $2 billion in Bitcoin after the crypto bills pass the US House. And so he collectively his company has 3 billion worth of crypto exposure. And 2/3 of that, which is 2 billion, is specifically in bitcoin. And I also wanted to share with you here on the news. Breaking Trump media buys 2 billion worth of bitcoin for the Treasury. It's official, he made the announcement and Max chimed in with a response. The great bifurcation before buying any for the reserve fund for the United States, Trump is front running Americans and buying bitcoin for himself. A pretty genius move. So again, he's running the United States of America. He made sure to make that 2 billion dollar Bitcoin purchase before he starts to add bitcoin to the, you know, stockpile or whatever, you know, strategic reserve that they signed for the United States of America. So Trump is officially front running the rest of America, which is pretty interesting. And I had to look up this word because it's not a, a common word. I see bifurcation ultimately means to divide into branches. So like to separate and divide. So he's ultimately getting to front run the rest of America before they start stockpiling and adding massive amounts of bitcoin. Whether it's a million or 5 million. It's all speculative right now. You know, Cynthia Lummis's bill was proposing to buy 1 million sailor when he was at the White House, he was trying to convince them they need to buy 5 million. But any, any way you slice it, Trump is Getting a piece of the pie before the United States. Let me know your thoughts on that. And another headline here. Trump Media just revealed 2 billion of the 3 billion liquid assets are now specifically in bitcoin, meaning two thirds of their treasury is btc. Let that sink in. And also one more bonus tweet from Max. Someone asked what happens when treasury companies and other institutions own 22 million bitcoin? Max says it's coming. Only self custody bitcoin is actual bitcoin as designed. And they make a great point. Just like using derivatives, there's a lot more gold being traded than actually exists. And guess what? Mount Gox was never audited, so who knows. And the same concept with Bitcoin ETF or Bitcoin from Treasuries or Bitcoin in a wrapper that's not self custodied there can be 42 million bitcoin via derivatives. But there can only ever be really the underlying asset. There can only ever be 21 million. So you got to keep that in mind. So there's a great point there. Self custody bitcoin is not the same as any type of exposure via a wrapper through let's say Wall street or something like that. But let's dive a little deeper into this big news here. Trump Media and Technology Group. It's the company that owns President Trump's truth social platform just revealed it held roughly 2 billion worth of the biddy and bitcoin related securities just a few days after significant crypto bills pushed by Trump advanced in Congress. I believe there were three bills which were just signed including the Genius act which is the stablecoin infrastructure framework bill which is getting a lot of mixed vibes. I mean a lot of OGs are blowing the whistle saying this is just a precursor to set up the CBDCs central bank. Digital currencies disguise as stable coins which ultimately the same thing.

Cmnobile.com we covered this numerous times already on the pod. But back to the Monday notice Trump, which is Today Trump Media said it had acquired Bitcoin as part of the investment strategy announced back in May in which it allocated one and a half billion from stock sales plus one billion from convertible senior secured bonds to purchase the crypto. The media company said it would continue to acquire Bitcoin and Bitcoin related assets depending upon the market conditions. The notice came four days after the U S House of Representatives passed the three bills during what Republicans and Trump's branded Crypto week. The price of Bitcoin briefly surged more than 120 as the week began. In fact it topped out at the current all time high123.2 according to Coinbase and then since dropped 116 and here we are back above 117 and fluctuating in between. But you already know Trump signed the Genius stablecoin bill into law Friday as I referenced. But the other two bills related to the crypto market structure and central bank digital currencies will need approval in the Senate before going to the President's desk. The signing of the Genius bill may benefit Trump's family back crypto business. Naturally, World Liberty Financial, which has its own Stable Coin which I believe is USD 1. The price of the company's governance token WLFI has more than doubled in the last seven days as holders voted to make it tradable. Also meanwhile, according to data from Nansen, the price of the President's Meme coin the official Trump increased 10% to 11.55 from 10.45 cents the same week and I I think the all time high was like 65 in that ballpark. So it has collapsed significantly since the launch. Of course one of the companies tied to Trump and his family had a 20 stake in World Liberty as of June and the President effectively controls 80% of the meme Coin supply through to specific companies. But is the White House still looking into options for the national Bitcoin reserve? I hope so. It Seems Trump just wanted to front run the United States. In March, Trump signed the executive order to establish the strategic Bitcoin reserve and the digital asset stockpile. Also, alarmingly, we discovered that we assume the US is holding on to roughly 200,000 BTC, but only 29,000specifically was accounted for through whatever treasury or firm in the United States government that has that. And right now there's a lot of speculation on whether the US has it all or if the Biden may have offloaded some. The Biden administration that launched the war on crypto, I mean, but we'll soon find out, I guess. And at this time, most experts suggest that the stockpile would consist of crypto seeds by the US But Trump's advisors later said they're looking into alternatives, which is interesting lingo there, including revaluing the government's gold certificates. I don't know if that's a hint that they may trade some, you know, gold for Bitcoin. And also keep in mind that the, according to the executive bill in which Trump signed for the bitcoin, my understanding is as long as it's a net neutral way to acquire it for the United States and doesn't cost the tax payers any money, they have the right to do it. So theoretically, Sailor even propose it, the Trump could potentially convert some of the gold over at Mount Gox or in their supply or in, in their control and then convert it into bitcoin. It wouldn't cost the taxpayers any money and that would give them a bitcoin supply for the United States if they decide to go that route. Another way is maybe just print more money or take some of the printed money which is being wasted and then funnel that into some bitcoin purchases some way somehow. I mean, there's a lot of ways. In fact, I believe it was Sailor who came up with a whole documentation to Trump when he was at the White House on all the different ways he'd be able to accumulate 5 million or so, which was the goal Saylor proposed to Trump when he walked in the White House. So either way you slice it, it seems the United States will be stockpiling bitcoin, whether obviously they continue to seize more from the criminals or somehow use some net neutral ways of acquisition. But there's, I mean, there's no telling how much Bitcoin they could acquire. So that becomes the question, how much Bitcoin will Trump acquire for the United States during his presidency?
