Happy Sat stacking Saturday. Welcome everyone to no. 1 Daily Bitcoin Pod. We flipped the market back in the green. Pretty little bitty pumping. We'll also be discussing China pouring in over a billion into gold in one month as the US Government slaps tariffs on bullion imports. I'll be sharing this latest report. Also, World Liberty financial pitches 1 1/2 billion crypto treasury company. I'll be breaking down this report all. Also big news today. Harvard Endowment invests 116 million into the Black Rock Bitcoin ETF. Also, massive news coming out of El Salvador with bitcoin investment banks coming very soon to bitcoin country. Also, billionaire Shamath P predicts bitcoin can still hit 1.14 million this cycle. I'll be breaking it all down for you. We'll also be taking a look at the overall crypto market. All this plus so much more in today's show. All right, fam. Welcome everyone to the live stream. Happy sat stacking Saturday. The market is back in the green, which is a beautiful thing. Lots of volume and the entire crypto markets on the cusp of regaining all time high above $4 trillion. I'm your host, JV alongside Fed chairman and Nip Anator. Lots going on in the market. Lots of bullish news to share with you. So let's kick it off. And if I forgot to tell you, it's Pod 2073. It's just crazy how fast times are flying. And bitcoin is the ultimate time capsule for generational wealth. All you have to do is hodle Hoddle be thy name. But let's kick this mofo off. Pulling up coin360. As you can see on your screen right here, ether is the big gainer on the day, up another five and a half percent. Now trading just shy of 4300. Almost on the cusp of regaining Its all time high achieved back in 2021 which was around 44, $4,500. Even Eric Trump was flexing bragging about eth wrecking the shorts yesterday which was a big story. Also bitcoin just got back in the green currently above 116. Five at a time of the live and the bulk of the market is pumping which is a beautiful thing. Checking out coin market cap.com the current crypto market champ is coming in at 3.93 trillion. As I mentioned earlier the all 4 trillion so we're just shy. We have 150 billion worth of volume for the past 24 hours. The Bitcoin dominance is on the climb as well. Or actually I'm sorry it's on the decline. It's currently 59%. The ether dominance is clearly on the climb at 13.1%. What I meant to say before was the market cap of bitcoin was also on the climb in which it is. And checking out top 100 crypto gainers past 24 hours we got PI leading the pack up 16% followed by Athena up 15% followed by arrow of 14%. Which alts if any are you bullish on for the bull? Do let me know in the chat. Checking out the crypto bubbles get a visual perspective on a day and and virtually everything. Maybe 95% of the market pumping pretty substantially. Checking out the weekly even more impressive some of These alts up 20, 30, 40, 50% is this alt season. We haven't used the term in a long time and checking out the monthly very similar scenario. Analyzing the 12 month perspective I'd say 8020 green over red. Checking out the crypto greed and fear index today it's a 67 in greed. Yesterday was a 74, last week of 55 and last month of 71. Checking out the infamous time chain calendar today is we're on block height 909 285. We have 140715 blocks into the having a 2028 and you can exchange one fiat monopol dollar for 857 sats. Again one dollar will get you 857 sats so you should know exactly what to do. You pick up the SATs, put down the gats and pick up some bitcoin caps. We're just going to dive right into our ta AKA Astrology for the brosis and I'll pull up the live charts as we always do. Here's three catalysts that will help Bitcoin break 122. Just keep in Mind the current all time high is123.2, so we're roughly $1,200 above the 122 mark. So yeah, Bitcoin at 120 back on July 23rd. Prompting traders to question whether a new all time high still possible this year. I think we all know if you're watching the stream right now we will be at a new all time high before you know, it could be in a matter of a week. It could be, you know, obviously before the month of August. So to think it's not going to happen before the end of the year and it's the most bullish time of the four year cycle in my opinion is crazy. But here's three near to medium term drivers which can step big on on a path well above the 2.3 trillion market cap. And you can see the market cap surpassed silver quite a bit ago. Actually Silver is only at 2.1 trillion, bitcoins at 2.32 trillion and gold is at 23 trillion. So there's only a few assets bigger than Bitcoin at this point. Amazon, Alphabet, Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia and Gold. And we come in for that number one spot. Some analysts expect book owners to pass goals. 23 trillion valuation I think is a matter of time. That may take a little bit of time, but we all know it's happening. Even Peter Schiffer brains, if you put them on a lie detector, I bet he'd probably tell you the truth. Nvidia's valuation surge to 4.4 trillion, which I believe is the highest that any company has ever achieved. And this was from 2.3 trillion in March. You can see how fast it's accelerating. Despite its latest quarterly net income being flat compared to six months earlier. Traders may be betting on much higher future earnings or valuation metrics, maybe losing relevance as governments are expected to accelerate their money expansion. Which ultimately means pretty low money printer Go Burr which is going to make Bitcoin that much more valuable. The M2 global money supply across the 21 largest central banks reached a record 55.5 trillion in July, while the US federal budget deficit total 1.3 trillion in just nine months. Such conditions support the case for the Bitcoin bulls. Even if Bitcoin's relative strong correlation with tech stock continues, however, retail inflows are still largely absent. Despite Bitcoin's 116 gains over the past year. The gap compared to the S P 500 is 22%. Annual return acts as a magnet for the new capital, particularly as the crypto gains traction in mainstream media like companies like Strategy Meta Planet, etc and now there's so many treasury plays as well. Currently crypto apps such as Coinbase and Robin Hood show little sign of retail investor excitement, with both remaining outside the top 10. And while Catalyst for renewed retail interest is uncertain, significant room remains for the retail driven rally in 2025. So people are saying we haven't seen it. Another theory is that we did get a retail rally but it's through the institution such as the Black Rock ETFs etc as those are just ordinary customers. But anyways we also have Trump signed the executive order on Thursday which was a featured story we talked about yesterday and the day before permitting crypto and other alternative assets and the a 401k retirement accounts which my understanding it's a 12 and a half trillion dollar market just in the US which green lights all that money to flow into the BTC. Also, Michael Henerich, co founder of OG Labs, said the 401k rule could unlock trillions in retirement capital for Bitcoin. Thanks Captain Obvious. That's what I just said Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan said the change could be transformative for the industry obviously. Right? It's a lot of money, especially considering right Now Bitcoin market cap 2.3 trillion and we can unlock another 12 trillion. Yes please. Currently US Bob Bitcoin ETFs hold 150 billion in assets.

O D O O.com compared with 198 billion for gold instruments as of July this year. Once the spot Bitcoin E tests are the gold equivalent holdings, the event could help cement the perception as a reserve asset rather than a risk on trade. And the OG's already know where my diamond hands at. Over time, more institutional investors are likely to add Bitcoin positions as it gains relevance. And that's fine by me if it takes people until Bitcoin's priced at 2 million per coin to adopt it. Hey, we all pay for bitcoin at the price we deserve, so so be it. It was written you. I mean, but with that being shared, let me know your thoughts on some of that and let's pull up some of the live charts and we'll do some live chart action. J Satisfaction, Bo Jackson, Tony Braxton. Dedicated to the baddies on a SAS stack on Saturday. One hour chart rising. Wedgie. The only wedgie officially approved by the Fed Chair Dog Nipinator. And you also have the blue Target Papa Blue Smurf120, I dare say 119, 800-5-22 to be precise, but dare say 120 in play. Let's break through to the other side and zooming out. We'll take some different looks, different perspectives of some different time frames here for you guys. Here's the four hour. No particular target in play, but we do have a green candle currently where we're at and we're regaining momentum. About to retest 117 here any moment now. Only 200 away. Going deeper, zooming out. We'll check out the daily. You can see yesterday was a little itty bitty cracked of red. Today we're forming in the green and then the two days prior to yesterday we're actually bullish with a pretty significant green candle when we bounce back from the local low of the 111, 112 bottom and we recovered and again we're currently on the cusp of 117. We also have a rising wedge formation on this daily chart and also a Barney the purple dinosaur bullish flag sitting at146.4 which obviously would be pretty nice considering that's like 23000 above the current top which we achieve price discovery 1232 and checking out the weekly in which we'll get a weekly close tomorrow on a Sunday you can see here thus far we're in the green on the week which is nice. Yeah last week was a corrective red and we did. We still have the 124 cup and handle target and you'll notice as of a few months ago we started getting a lot of green candle closes. I believe you'll notice seven of them consecutively before even having a pullback which is more bullish indicators and zooming out one step further we'll take a look now at the monthly we're nine days deep, you know 1/3 of the way through August and thus far it's a green. It's an itty bitty green but it's green nonetheless. And the four prior months all green candle closes and pretty significant and for the month prior month I believe was June. We just had the highest monthly close in Bitcoin history above 115 000. I think that trend is going to likely con to continue throughout the rest of the year especially considering what part of the year it is in the grand scheme of the four year cycle. But you guys got to let me know your thoughts as far as when do you feel we'll likely retest 120 and break the current all time high a123 and hit some of these bullish targets next leg up 140ish. Do let me know your thoughts and I'll read some of those comments out loud. But anyways yo let's get into this next story here regarding China purchasing mass amounts of gold. The headline here reads China pours over a billion into gold in one month as U. S Government slaps tariffs on bullion imports. According to the latest report, China is reportedly ramping up gold purchases as the U. S Government slaps tariffs on billions of dollars in gold bullion imports. According to the report by Reuters, China's central bank splurge 1.06 billion on gold just in July, extending its streak of gold purchases to nine months. So why do you think they're accumulating? Data from China Central bank reveals that the nation's gold reserves grew to 243 billion, practically 244 billion at the end of July, up from 242 billion at the end of June. The Financial Times reports shared that the Federal Government slapped 39% import tariffs on goods from Switzerland on Thursday, including gold bullion carrying certain weight. The ruling letter obtained by the Financial Times from the U. S Customs and Border protection states that 1 kilo and 100 ounce gold bars will now be classified in a way that makes them subject to taxes. Sucks to be a gold bug, doesn't it? Data from the FT Financial Times finds that from June 2024 to June 2025 the U. S imported 61 and a half billion worth of gold from Switzerland. That same amount, which trumps New Terrace would result in 24 billion worth of import taxes. Whoa. Gold is currently trading at $3,453 per ounce, a marginal decrease on the day the precious metals up nearly 30% year to date. But there you have it there. Personally whenever I see nations or central banks stacking massive amounts of gold, it's because they know that their fiat currency or bonds are becoming worthless and they're hedging against it. Now there's also a lot of rumor speculation that nations like China are quietly accumulating bitcoin. That would not surprise me the least. You know, some are speculating China holds 200000 Bitcoin. As a lot of people speculate, the United States has roughly 200000 Bitcoin. But then there's rumors and theories that the US doesn't really have that much. They maybe have offloaded it during the Biden administration. They never shared proof of work, but who really knows? At the end of the day it's all up for speculation. But one thing is for certain. Smart nations and smart people are definitely hoarding and accumulating bitcoin and as you can see as well as gold especially at a nation state level like an empire like China. But anyways, next story of the day. Let's continue. We got a lot still yet to share. Next headline World Liberty Financial Pitches 1 1/2 Billion Crypto Treasury Company here's the report. World Liberty, the Trump family Link crypto project is reportedly engaging major investors to form a public company to hold the WLFI tokens. The proposal aims to place WLFI as a corporate balance sheet and contribute to the rising trend of digital asset treasury companies here in the United States. World Liberty was unveiled in 2024 as a D5 protocol and crypto company by President Trump Trump to be managed by his sons Eric and Trump Jr. The crypto initiative recorded the successful launch of the WLFI token October 2024, raising almost 3 million in primary sales within the first month. In 2025, World Liberty also introduced a dollar peg stable coin known as USD1. However, anonymous sources have informed Bloomberg that World Liberty Financial is now exploring the idea of of a more traditional capital markets vehicle that would consolidate WLFI on public firms balance sheets. The crypto company is reportedly approaching large tech and crypto investors about fundraising rounds expecting to target one and a half billion. And although talks remain, private discussions are said to be progressing as all parties work out the structure of a potential deal. Notably World Liberty Financials reported recently recent move points to the bullish trends in the emergence of digital asset treasury companies and according to analytics firm Galaxy, these companies now hold the combined 100 billion in crypto assets. Unsurprisingly, Bitcoin treasury companies, an example strategy led by sailor, account for 93% of these holdings, with the remainder considering alt focused companies such as Sharplink Gaming. Lets map out this week's amazing destinations and travel tips.

The Bloomberg report, these crypto treasury firms still intend to raise an additional 79 billion doll dollars targeted solely just on Bitcoin purchases to increase their current Bitcoin holdings of 3.98% of the market cap. Interestingly, this optimism by these companies have been inspired by pro crypto policies implemented by Trump. The Republicans remain committed to making America the central stage of the crypto industry as indicated by initiatives such as the National Bitcoin Reserve, approval of the Genius act and legal de escalations by regulators and all the recent executive orders being able now to put the 401k into the biddy. And also the crypto market cap now is fast approaching the all time high of 4 trillion. As we pointed out earlier, Bitcoin dominance took a step back as the ether dominance just started breaking out and the price action just reached a high we haven't seen since 2021. And if you don't know now, you know homies. Let's move on to our next story. Big news coming out of Harvard. The Ivy League. That's right. Headline reads Harvard Endowment invest 116 million into BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF. Another one bites dust. But first I actually want to share with you some interesting insights in 2018. As you can see here on X, Harvard says Bitcoin is more likely to hit a hundred dollars than a hundred thousand. And I got the proof of work now they just bought 116 million worth of the BlackRock Bitcoin ETF. Everyone gets Bitcoin at the price they deserve and I got the receipts. Here's an article. Let's look at the the date, the timestamp March 5, 2018 CNBC headline. A decade from now, Bitcoin is more likely to be a hundred dollars than a hundred thousand according to Harvard economists. So I would speculate in 2018 Bitcoin was probably like 6,7000 and this dumbass said yeah, it's more likely to crash to a hundo than hit a hundred thousand. Who's laughing now? You, you idiot. And also as a document and sailor points out, Harvard University holds more bitcoin ETF than gold for the first time ever. So Harvard knows what's up. Yeah, they're late to the party. But again, we all pay for bitcoin at the price we deserve. Tis what it is. So let's dive a little deeper into this. In a Friday Filing with the SEC, Harvard disclosed holding 1.9 million shares of the iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF, which is ibit June 30. The Bitcoin exposure was valid at more than 116 million, making it the fund's fifth largest investment for the period after Microsoft, Amazon travel, tech company booking holdings and meta. Harvard reported its endowment fund was 52.2 billion as of June 30th of last year, making it the largest amongst U. S universities, ahead of Yale, down with skull and bones, Stanford and Princeton. Just saying. The endowment and its asset allocation is set up to anticipate. You're going to have some volatile periods. According to Robert Kaplan Martin Marshall professor of management practice and business admin, in a 2017 video explaining the endowment. I mean, very interesting. And though the endowment appeared to be primarily focused on tech company investments this year, Harvard reportedly considered buying shares of the crypto fund as early as 2018. Emory University became one of the first significant u. S endowments to report exposure to digital asset ETFs last year, buying 2.7 million shares of the grayscale bitcoin mini trust, worth more than 15 million at that time. And also the SEC approved the listing and trading of the BlackRock Bitcoin ETF and 10 other funds. As we all know, they officially went live. That was on January 11th of 2024. It's been a year and a half and now they have an insane amount of assets under management. Here it shows 86 billion in net assets as of Thursday. And that's just one of those companies, which is BlackRock. And on Tuesday, the SEC said it would increase the numbers of allowed option contracts to 250,000 from 25,000, all for the e test with options, which would include iShares Bitcoin ETF. Some expect the move to increase demand for the crypto investment vehicle. All right, yo, next story. Here's the latest out of El Salvador. This was just published right before I went live, so I'm glad I get to share it with you guys. Bitcoin Investment banks are coming to El Salvador according to their government regulator. We've been touching upon this actually all week because Max Kaiser let the cat out of the bag. Shout out to the high priest. Of course. Regulated Bitcoin investment banks are coming to bitcoin country. Following Thursday's approval of El Salvador's investment banking law Dundilio which classifies investment banks under different regulations than the commercial banks, investment banks will now be allowed to hold Bitcoin and other digital assets on their balance sheets and offer crypto services to sophisticated investors, the equivalent of accredited investors in the United states. According to J.C. reyes, my own homie there. Shout out J.C. man, President of El Salvador's Commission of Digital Assets. He's the one who took me out for papusas in San Salvador. Looking forward to Lincoln with you again when I'm there. The government's crypto regulatory agency shared that the new investment banking law allows private investment banks to operate in legal tender and foreign currencies for the sophisticated investors and to engage in digital assets like Bitcoin with a digital asset Service provider license. And with this license a bank could choose to operate entirely as a bitcoin bank. And is that not Michael Sailor's ultimate goal to create the world's largest bitcoin bank, ultimately transforming strategy B into that that bitcoin bank. The law encourages foreign investment in El Salvador and positions it as an emerging hub for finance. Proponents of the newly adopted law say. And of course shout out Bitcoin president Buell. The first ever, our first bitcoin president, current president of El Salvador. There's going to be a new election in 2027 and he's going to be allowed to run a third term. And I'm sure you guys caught the updates when we shared that in the pod. I think it was earlier in the week. And also Samson Mount was his birthday yesterday. The founder of Jan3, he's been helping with nation state adoption for a very long time. Orange pilling nations which is a beautiful thing. So massive. Shout out Happy belated birthday to Samson now institutional investors have been a major driver of El Salvador's crypto adoption as the Central American country attracts crypto companies and financial firms with its pro crypto regulatory climate. Critics say bitcoin adoption in the country and the regulatory policies are not helping the average person and mainly benefits the government and large business businesses. But from my first hand experience of being in the trenches in El Salvador earlier in the year, no, definitely helping individuals. I believe that is nothing more than fud. However, it's up to the individual. Some people can care less about bitcoin, some business owners can care less about accepting bitcoin. But others do. You have the free will to choose and you were never forced to only use bitcoin. Just FYI. That's also fud which was spread now. President of El Salvador Bukele met with Balan Balal, Pakistan State Minister. Another topic of conversation we covered as a feature story here in the pod for them to follow Bukele's blueprint adopting bitcoin for the blockchain to share strategies for nation state level adoption and energy policy to foster crypto mining. And of course Max and Stacy were in the room in that meeting at, you know, with Bukele, uh, and the uh, Pakistan head Prime minister quoting them here. The cooperation is essentially based on how emergent economies that are both under the IMF program can leverage tech and other financial instruments for financial growth. Precisely. And there's my homie JC Reyes right there on the right now. On July 30, Bolivia Central bank signed a memorandum of understanding with CNAD to promote the use of crypto as an alternative to fiat currencies. The agreement came amid a currency crisis in Bolivia where the US dollars are scarce. That's funny. And difficult to acquire, making international trade difficult. Wow. So there's scarcity of the dollar in Bolivia. Good to note, this has led to the growing use of the US dollar denominated stable coins as a medium of exchange according to the tether CEO Paolo. Well, there you have it. And I'm shout out to the tether CEO. They're also building a ultimately a tether empire building in El Salvador, which I'm looking forward to. And if you don't know, now you know. All right, fam. Now for our feature story of the day. Billionaire Shamath P predicts bitcoin will hit 1.14 million still this cycle. So 1 million still in play. I dare say. 1.1 million. Come on now. But let's break this baby down. As you can see here in the headline, Shamath P has gone as far as to forecast the price of up to 1.1 million. 1,140,000 to be precise, of bitcoin. And this. Let's map out this week's amazing destinations and travel tips.

T Mobile Cycles that leads me to believe he believes in the extended cycle theory. To support the argument, he refers to the having which was April of last year and which we had one in 2012, one in 2016, one in 2020 and the fourth one was April of last year. Block rewards and supply get cut down due to the having cycles, making it that much more scarce. History tells us the bitcoin price will tend to go up steeply following such events. That's right, there's always a time frame window and I believe we have like another four or five months of pure bullishness based upon previous cycles. If history is to rhyme. But to illustrate, the bitcoin climbed more than 87 fold after the 2012 hearing. That's lit. And in the year 2016 and increased by over 45x. Having in 2020 also resulted in significant price increase in 18 months. And Shamath P thinks that a similar scenario could happen once again. So let's just entertain the scenario of bitcoin doing a mere 10x this cycle from the current price. Easy peasy, we're well over a million dollars per coin. This forecast is made on the basis that declining demand will be covered by increasing demand having cycles. Long term trend the long term trend of the having cycles can see powerful upward price flows, typically what we see. So in case it is repeated, it is possible Bitcoin faces another bull run. He stresses on patience. Major price changes are observed with intervals of 6 to 18 months after the having. And again, run the math, we had the having in April of last year, so we're still within that window of pure bullishness. Next massive leg up. Yeah, I mean a lot of the bears are saying, you know, very mod targets. 150, 180. Maybe we see 2, 220, but the bulls are saying we can go 500000 to a mill including Plan B creator of the Bitcoin stock to flow model including Jan3. Samson Mao happy belated birthday. Yesterday was his birthday. Just FYI. Max Kaiser's looking at 2.2 million. Obviously not this year still, but he's calling 220000 for 2025. You have Arthur Hayes just Blaze calling for 250,000 this year. You have fun Strats. Tom lee calling for 250,000 this year. Their long term trajectory of course million plus. We all know it's inevitable. You have Kathy woods bullish price trajectory and the list goes on and on. Michael Sailor Etc. Shamath Associates the future of Bitcoin with the movement of the world beyond the US dollar, Bitcoin can emerge as a world reserve asset as countries look to alternatives.
