We'll also be taking a look at the overall crypto market. All this plus so much more in today's show. Baby baby. But anyways fam, without further ado, if you're new to the Rumble, important to smash the likes then give us a follow and hit the repost over on x. Today is pot episode 2096. I'm your host JV is 9-3-2025 markets are pumping. We did reclaim $112,000 which is always nice and so we're going to kick it off with our market watch as we do each and every day pulling up coin360. You should be able to see here on your screen. We got the entire market in the green today which is a nice sight for our eyes. Not something we've been seeing a lot recently. Ether is back up 4% trading just shy of 4.800bitcoins at 112.2at the time of the live up 1% and virt thing in the green, baby baby. Bitcoin's market cap is 2.233 trillion. Checking out the crypto bubbles, you can see the bulk of the entire market in the green. Barely anything in the red on the daily. Checking out the weekly. The weekly chart. Definitely the bulk of the market in the red. Unfortunately I'd say 85% of the market in the red. Zooming out on the monthly we can see it's a good divide, maybe 50 50. And checking out for the yearly, definitely the bulk of the market in the green, which is nice. And checking out the crypto greed and fear index today were 55 greed, yesterday neutral last week of 51. And last month a 64 in greed. And there you have it, yo. Obviously we just entered September. All right fam. Now for our TA AKA astrology for the baddies and the broskis. Are the bitcoin bulls still in control? Well of course we are. As bitcoin surpass 112 like it ain't no thing but a chicky wing Bitcoin tap 1125 after the Wednesday wall street open as traders slowly flip bullish on the bitty price action here you're looking at a one hour chart. You can't short your dork Peter shift can't afford that. Data from trading view show bitcoin attempting to win back the key support level. These include 112 itself which form the bottom of a large patch of ass liquidity on the exchange order books coin glass showed the price taken out a chunk of the liquidity on the day with the remainder extending to 114 here. Looking at the bitcoin liquidation heat map brought to you by bance Commenting crypto nuevo highlighted with the following. This looks like an attempt to reclaim support number one which would lead to a move back inside the range. He also noted there would just two weeks left until a potential bullish risk asset catalyst entered an interest rate cut by the U. S Fed Reserve September 17th. Literally two weeks from today. Family, we get that. The post described this week's local lows of 107 as a false move while fellow trader Bitbull flagged it as a classic Bounce bounce. Come on, bounce. Bring facts. Got a half an ounce or 90 of them. One of the two. But we shall soon see. The chart also reflects bitcoin perfectly. Bounced back from the bull market support band. This is a sign the bulls are still in control. That's right. Reminds me of the movie the raging bull. The story about Jake lamotta. If you guys haven't seen that? I'm not a De Niro fan. He's, he's woken, you know, piece of ish right now. But long story short, it's a great classic with a young Joe Pesci. Pesci and De Niro are both in that film. It was one of my favorite films growing up and it documents, you know, the story, you know, when he fought, you know, what's Sugar, Sugar Ray Robinson all just a great film. Anyways, you know, Martin Sarkaze produces classics. I mean, anyways, regarding Macro Volatility trading company QCP Capital saw the odds of bitcoin's favor going forward. Two cuts this year look reasonable. But keep an eye on the break evens as new tariffs can push expectations higher. With policy uncertainty lingering, softer US dollar is more likely so long as the global growth holds up. Golden bitcoin remain straightforward. Hedges are in the backdrop. Exactly. Meanwhile, gold made a fresh new all time high. On Wednesday, Peter Schiff is in the living room doing backflips and it hit 30. A whopping 3, $500 per ounce. But look at that. I think that's because the dollar is just really the thing being depleted and everything against the dollar. Bitcoin gold is doing quite well. But there you have it. Yeah. Next up, let's pull up some of the live charts. And remember, you can't short your dork. We can't afford that. Pulling up the live charts so we can do some live chart action. Jackson Satisfaction, Bo Jackson, Tony Braxton for the baddies here. And should I. I'm going to make my, my video smaller. Not necessary to be that large. And I may even remove the video if the video is causing the lag. But nonetheless, here we're looking at a one hour chart. There's a rising wedge, there's a red Target sitting at 122, just shy of 122 on the one hour. And the all time high is currently 124. 5. So that's like 2500 away from the firmament. And checking out the four hour. See there's a falling wedge followed by a red target sitting at 123. And you can see we've been climbing a lot. A lot of candles here in the four hour in the green which is a good sign. And checking out the daily daily chart. 1, 2, 3. This is our third consecutive green candle already. There's a bull flag, rising wedge and a barney. The purple bull flag. Target sitting at 1-464- Again, 146 4in play on the daily chart for the Bull Flag. Let's zoom it out for the Weekly. I'm gonna guess we have a nice target here. Well, there is a rising wedge. No particular bull target on the Weekly, but the silver lining is we just had three consecutive weekly red candles and we're finally forming a new green, though we're only not even halfway through the week. We'll keep an eye on that. Taking a quick look at the monthly the Monthly chart again. We did get four consecutive green candles, which is very nice. Then we had the corrective red for August and here we are September thus far in the green. But where do you feel the pretty little bitty likely take us next? No Diddy Next Headline Fam Spot Bitcoin ETF Surge Ether Funds Bleed as Investors Flee for Safety that's right, spot recorded 332 million and that inflows on a Tuesday, outpacing the ethereum counterparts, which saw 135 million worth of the net outflows. According to the so so value. Fidelity's FBTC led the surge, attracting 132 of the millions, followed by the black rock eye bit with 72 million. Additional inflows were reported from major issuers including Grayscale ARC, Bitwise, VanEck and Invesco. E3 test posted the outflows. Fidelity's F ETH accounted for the bulk of the bleed, losing 99.2 million, while Bitwise's ETHW shed 24 million. Now Ether ETFs also saw 164 million of outflows Friday. The reversal came after a strong August for the Ethereum funds, which saw almost 4 billion of inflows compared to Bitcoin's ETFs at only 751 million. So yeah, prior weeks, Ether has been outpacing Bitcoin with ETFs. But all that changed this week. Big Dog the renewed Surge of the spot Bitcoin ETFs come as Bitcoin's digital gold narrative makes a comeback. Don't call it a comeback. Bitcoin's been here for years, peer to peer, leaving suckers in fear. Just saying Bitcoin is once again attracting institutional flows as the digital goal narrative regains traction. Action Jackson Satisfaction with gold all time highs Appetite for the hard assets clearly strengthening in this environment of the macro uncertainty, Bitcoin is standing out against the eth, which appears to be entering a period of profit taking. Lou said this trend could continue as long as the global markets remain shaky. That's right, with investors favoring bitcoin for its perceived stability and safe haven appeal. There is no second best and as reported, crypto investment products rebounded last week, pulling in 2 1/2 billion of net inflows after the previous week's 1.4 billion of the outflows. August wrapped with 4.3 billion of inflows. Year to date inflows stand at 35 billion, up 58 compared to the same timeline last year. Total assets under management dropped 7% week over week to $219 billion. And if you don't know, look it up in the AI. The AI has all the answers Next Story of the day CIMG Inc. Raises 55 million for Bitcoin as Crypto firms ramp up crypto stockpiles that's right, digital health and sales development Firm CIMG raised 55 million in share sales to expand their crypto treasury, adding to the list of firms terms raising money for crypto thus far this week, they said Tuesday it issued 220 million common shares in exchange for 500 bitcoin to expand its reserve holdings as part of a financial management strategy. It comes after another major bitcoin purchase by Sailor Strategy which we announced on yesterday's show and Japan's Meta Planet signaling further acquisitions. I was like another three plus billion from its amending capital structure also see and they also just reached 20000 bitcoin meta planet. That was a few days back. CIMG said it sold off shares at 25 cents each to buy the bitcoin which is now worth approximately 55 and a half million. The company's board said they're committed to a long term bitcoin holding strategy to establish a solid value foundation for the investors, with Chairman and CEO Wang Wang Jungchong adding that the company wouldn't limit exposure to the biddy. The company intends to continue to increase its digital asset reserves and and pursue collaborations across AI and crypto ecosystems. Now CIMG finished Tuesday's trading session on the NASDAQ at a quarter per share, a decline of three and a half percent on the day, as you can see here. Now it comes as other major public bitcoin holders have been making moves to bolster their holdings strategy. Just announced the 4,000 bitcoin for just under a half a billion which we covered on yesterday's POD Strategy's latest bitcoin purchase was made at an average price just shy of 111. They're already in the green Strategy's latest purchase was made using proceeds from four of its ATM equity offerings and of course, Meta Planet secured shareholder approval to overhaul its capital structure. We also covered that on yesterday's pod, clearing the path for billions in potential fundraising earmark for the Bitcoin accumulation strategy and as of right now strategy holds 636,505 Bitcoin and Meta Planet hit their goal of 20,000 Bitcoin, making them the first and sixth public Bitcoin treasuries respectively, according to the data from the Bitcoin Treasuries Net Next Headline Next Big story of the Day Winkle Voss Nakamoto back Treasury launches with 1000 of the BTC that's right bro. Check it Euro denominated Bitcoin treasury company raised initial funding of 126 million euros which is 147 million USD through a private round led by the Wingle Boss Capital and Nakamoto holdings and according to the Wednesday announcement shared the company used the funds to buy more than a th000 Bitcoin to jump start their Bitcoin Treasury. Treasury said it aims to be the first bitcoin treasury company listed on the primary European exchange. Now treasury plans to make its way onto the euro next Amsterdam Stock Exchange to a reverse listing by merging with lender MKB Nedsense. A reverse listing enables private companies to acquire stock exchange listings without meeting the requirements by merging the already listed companies. Treasury founder and CEO King Oe said that the company plans to leverage future equity issuance convertible debt to issue as Bitcoin holdings. Sounds very familiar. The announcement notes it plans to use both equity and debt to accumulate Bitcoin as the primary reserve asset. With the initial allocation of a thousand of the bitties treasury was catapulted amongst Europe's most notable corporate bitcoin holders, according to the data from Bitcoin Treasuries. Europe's top corporate Bitcoin treasury is the German firm Bitcoin group, currently with 3,600bitcoin worth around 400 million. It is followed by French company Sequins Communications with 3,205 Bitcoin worth 356 million and UK based the Smarter Web Company with 2,440 BTC valid at 270 million. The number of the European bitcoin Treasury firms is getting increasingly crowded. The Dutch crypto service provider Amdax recently announced that it's preparing to launch a bitcoin treasury company and guess where you heard it first? Right here on the podcast Brosis. Now. While the Bitcoin treasury model is gaining popularity, you can say that again. It's also drawing its fair share criticism. A recent hater report by venture capital firm Breed suggests only a few of these companies will stand the test of time to avoid the death sentence spiral. Hey, in all sincerity, they're probably right. That may impact bitcoin holding companies that trade too close to the net asset value. And there you have it, yo. Another one adopts the btc and it's only going to continue. And yeah, literally every week we're making new announcements of another one and another one. That one's significant because it's the Winklevoss twins backed by the likes of Nakamoto Holdings. And Nakamoto holdings is the new treasury company created by Trump's Bitcoin advisor David Bailey. So they're all connected. Baby, baby. All right, fam. Now for our feature story of the day PayPal just enabled Bitcoin and crypto for 650 million users here's what it means for us in the space Consumers can now pay in crypto while merchants receive either US dollars or PayPal USD, which is virtually their version of a stable coin. The automatic crypto to Fiat conversion on PayPal ensures no exposure to the price volatility, thereby offering a familiar settlement process akin to a traditional payout. This PayPal crypto settlement tool is also designed to be wallet agnostic. Shoppers can use Coinbase, Metamask, Bance, Kraken, Phantom, Exodus and others without requiring pre transfer funds into the PayPal. Overall, the process is streamlined. Connect your external wallet at checkout and pay directly. The company has remove legacy barriers by embedding crypto payments directly into the PayPal wallet. US merchants can now accept cross border payments with instant settlement and stable value payouts. This approach also helps expand PayPal's global reach overall, it's a major step and PayPal enabling crypto for merchants at scale. Now there's currently over 650 million users on PayPal that will get access to this crypto. That's right, the launch of the pay with crypto is unlocking access to $3 trillion crypto economy and a potential audience of 650 million crypto users, a massive leap from the existing 426 million account holders. This is even more this way. PayPal is expanding its footprint from fiat native users to crypto native spenders by overlaying stablecoin enabled transactions onto the existing infrastructure. This includes seamless support for PayPal stablecoin integration and deeper use of the PayPal's blockchain infrastructure to close the gap between the digital assets and the real world commerce. PayPal enables crypto for merchants here's why it matters. First and foremost, lower transaction fees. The current promotional rate is less than a percent 99 for PayPal crypto transactions valid through mid-2026. Then they're jacking it up to 1 1/2 to 3 1/2% card processing fees. But even with a later increase to let's say one and a half percent, it remains competitive, especially for the cross border sellers using crypto with PayPal also near instant settlement now with Bitcoin, when you use it solely, the transaction is the settlement they're claiming. With PayPal near instant settlement funds are settled in Fiat or PyUSD almost immediately. No need to wait one to three business days. The the PayPal blockchain settlement feature removes volatility for seller set sellers while improving the cash flow. Also stablecoin rewards you can earn cash back apparently 4% APY. Also global reach for SMEs for small businesses, particularly those operating internationally, the combination of the fast settlement and lower fees means easier access to global demand. PayPal's crypto merchant tools are tailor made for small and medium sized enterprises priced out across traditional cross border finance. Now at checkout, users can select pay with crypto alongside their regular options. After connecting for example a wallet, MetaMask, Binance, Coinbase Wallet or Phantom, they can pay with crypto coins such as Bitcoin, Ether or the stable coins. Also PayPal's broader vision for crypto PayPal's laying the foundation for enabling infrastructure on a global scale. The upcoming PayPal World Digital Wallet alliance, set to launch in fall this year, will connect the wallets across major payment ecosystems. UPI in India, 10 Pay Global in China, Mercado Pego in Latin America and Venmo in the US the goal is to roll out seamless cross border crypto payments via the PayPal for nearly 2 billion users. To support this, PayPal is expanding its partnership. Yada yada yada. Now the risks of the PayPal stablecoin integration you got to discuss the risks. Py USD is still pending approval from the New York State Department of Financial Services, meaning New York residents cannot use PayPal crypto payments. Involving the stablecoin. There is also user side risk. Despite PayPal supporting 100 cryptos, neither the PyUSD, which is the stable coin at PayPal or any crypto held in wallets is insured by the FDIC. Well, no crypto is secured by the FDIC, so that's not new. Additionally, with the current PayPal crypto transaction fee sets an attractive less than 1%. This promotional rate ends mid-2026 and then jumps up virtually a half a percent to 1.5. But they did say up to like 3.5. So I guess it's going to vary, but there you have it, yo. Now I also got to say, stress caution against forces of evil. Companies like PayPal, I don't trust them at all. I stopped using PayPal like a decade ago because they're not trustworthy and they would freeze my account for no viable reason. And then you get locked out for six months and you can't access your funds. Once that happened more than one time, I was like PayPal. And obviously they know if they don't adopt bitcoin, they're going to get left behind, so they don't have no choice to keep it one hun. But with all that being said, I have no desire to ever use PayPal. I probably will never use PayPal ever again for the rest of my life. And just because they offer crypto services doesn't mean it's in your best interest to participate in it. It's clearly in their best interest. You can just use bitcoin in a cold wallet and bypass PayPal altogether. Why do you need a middleman? You don't. You got bitcoin. It cuts out the middleman. And with that being shared. Welcome everyone, to the Q A segment of the live stream. The silver lining, the bigger picture here with the story is the global users. More, hundreds of millions more people are going to have access to crypto. Yeah, I mean, and that's a big deal. And that's why we shared that story here today with you guys. You can transfer your crypto off PayPal really easy to your wallet, which I lost on a bone accident. Bummer. New York residents cannot use it. You wouldn't want to use it anyways. Probably, bro. So. But yeah, New York is behind on everything when it comes to financial stuff, being it's the financial capital. It's like they have their own financial laws. I will not use the PayPal. Yes, the Jiza said back in the 90s, Tommy ain't my boy. Was dissing Tommy boy records. I say pay ain't my pal. Same concept, only now it's 2025 and we got Bitcoin. Still not a PayPal guy and never will be. Jack Dorsey, Elon and Peter Thiel, the originals at the PayPal. Criminals, drug traffickers, anti money laundering. Look at the size of their wallets compared to mine. That's why you can't short your dork. Me too. Like, for real. Still in the packaging. Wait, I got the real. Bada boom, bada dummy.

Prepare for flight, soldiers. Be steady, get ready.
- [22:19]
C
Bitcoin. Going, going.
- [22:34]
B
When you've been grounded long enough, you start to forget what flight feels like. You wonder if your wings still work, if they'll hold your way when you leave. That's why, before you take off, you need a plan. Not just the will to rise, but the wisdom to sustain the climb. Isaiah, chapter 40, verse 31.
- [23:10]
C
But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall mount up with wings like eagles. They shall run and not be weary. They shall walk and not faint.
- [23:19]
B
And that's when the squirrel analogy came alive for me. A squirrel doesn't wait for the frost to start before it gathers food. It spends the long, bright months preparing for the season. It knows we'll come. It doesn't know exactly when the first snow will fall. And it doesn't need to. It just keeps collecting, keeps storing, keeps securing its future.
- [23:48]
C
That's what hollers do. We don't need to know the exact date of the next bull Run. We don't obsess over time in the market perfectly. We just keep stacking stats season after season because we know winter will come and so will spring.
- [24:02]
B
I've met people who live like squirrels without even knowing it. The single mom who quietly stacks a little bitcoin every week, even when her friends tell her it's pointless. The retired mechanic who puts his spare cash into BTC instead of letting it rot in a savings account. They're preparing now for the of sake seasons ahead, so they won't be at the mercy of the gatekeepers later.
- [24:23]
C
The squirrel's way is the Hodler's way. Prepare steadily, hold tightly, and trust the work you've done when the winds shift. Moral of the story A flight plan.
- [24:42]
B
Isn'T just about the journey. It's about storing enough strength enough to finish and fly like a pilot. Prepare like a squirrel, and you'll always be ready for the next season.

The Story of the Paper bird, the Real wings, and the winter Cash In.
- [24:57]
B
A small coastal town, children loved to fold paper birds and toss them into the wind. They laughed as the birds glided for a few seconds before drifting back to the ground. One boy, Luke, dreamed of more. While others played, he began building real wings from driftwood, cloth, and rope. It took him weeks and and the other kids teased him, saying he was wasting his time.
- [25:23]
C
During those weeks, he also noticed a squirrel darting from tree to tree, collecting acorns and tucking them into hidden caches. It worked tirelessly, ignoring the laughter of the children, just as Luke ignored their teasing. When the first frost came, the paper birds were longs forgotten and the game stopped. Food grew scarce. That's when the spirit thrived, drawing from the acorns that had stored away. And on a crisp, clear morning, Luke, strapped on his wings, ran to the cliff and soared. Above the village, the children stared in awe, hungry and grounded, while the squirrel and the boy both enjoyed the fruits of their preparation. Galatians, chapter 6, verse 9 Let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap if we do not give up. Luke didn't give up. The squirrel didn't give up. Neither should we. Huddlers know the long game is where the reward is found. Not in the paper birds of quick distraction, but in the steady storing that keeps us flying when others are falling.
- [26:22]
B
That's the lesson. Wings get you where you want to go, but the discipline of the squirrel ensues. You can stay there. Bitcoin is both the means to fly in the star that carries you through every win.
