Bitcoin family to the number one daily Bitcoin pod. In today's show we'll be discussing Bitcoin price tap in 116 as analysis weighs the odds of the CME gap fill. Also Trump's truth social moves into prediction markets with crypto.com we'll also be discussing Lendon tops 1 billion in Bitcoin back loan originations as crypto lending surges. Also Bitcoin and ether treasuries have ghosted since the recent crypto crypto crash. Also open AI restructures as Public Benefit Corporation with Microsoft securing 27% stake. Also big news today breaking just in France considers a bill to accumulate 2% of the Bitcoin total supply and to establish a Bitcoin strategic reserve. The bill proposes the acquisition of 420,000 Bitcoin over 78 years as well as using nuclear and hydropower to mine the prelo bitty. Also more big news US Congressman proposes back in the US dollar with bitcoin and also the latest from the high priest. Predicting 2.2 million in play. He says easing tightness mass equals a massive flood of the naked short sales by the cartel. This works because gold is relatively centralized and because bitcoin is genuinely decentralized. A coordinated takedown by the cartel can't stop bitcoin from going to 2.02 million per coin. And that's as per the High Priest himself, Max Kaiser. We'll also be taking a look at the overall crypto market. All this plus so much more right here on Taco Tuesday. In today's show. Stacking stats cause tax is crazy I'm stacking stats cause the IMF hates me Stacking stats cause the haters don't faze me no Diddy, no Jay Z Stacking the biddy like it's Nipsey and JV Stacking the biddy like it's paper and shandy Stacking BTC like caffeine in my canteen Life is a game of chess that makes bitties the damn queen Stacking BTC today cancel me and I can't stream like Biggie it was all a dream now the biddy has set me free but here we go. Yo, if you guys are new to the Rumble, very important smash likes give us a follow and hit the repost. It's free to do so. This is how we orange peel the masses and hack the algorithm. But anyways, today is October 28, 2025. Bitcoin did tap 116 and then pull back a bit and we're currently just above112.8 at the time of the live stream. Happy Taco Tuesday. I'm your host JV alongside the Fed chair Nipinator. Keeping them nip and ating. But we're going to kick it off with our market watch as we do each and every day. So starting it off here with coin 36 60. As you can see here in your screen, bitcoin took a bit of a pullback. Not just bitcoin though. The entire market. And checking out coinmarketcap.com crypto market cap in total today, 3.89 trillion 153 billion worth of volume for the past 24 hours. Bitcoin dominance 59.2%. Ether dominance took a step back from 13 to 12.8% on the day. Checking out top 100 crypto gainers past 24 hours. We got Hedera HBAR up 8% followed by MEM Core up 7 followed by TA up 5%. Let me know which Al Ifany you're bullish on for the bull. Holla and check it out. The crypto bubbles you see JV and the bitcoin bubble. That's how it's supposed to be. I'm in the orange. Angels in the orange. It's all in the orange. And as you can see, wrecked Shitcoin city Trump coin down. Virtually every altcoin down except a handful such as hbar and a few others. Checking out the weekly pretty divided still. The bulk of the market in the red unfortunately has been corrective. Checking out the monthly looking ugly as a mother. Yeah, I mean not looking so pretty. You got virtually three or four altcoins in the green and everything else wrecked from 20 to 50 on average. And checking out the one year perspective Z cash I mean doing its thing up 700% this year. XRP another big gainer up 400%. But I do must remind you XRP still hasn't recovered from its 2017 alltime high. I mean is what it is. But checking out the crypto green infer index today we're dead in the middle of Little Italy. Little did we know that we riddle some middleman who didn't do diddly. And I only say those bars from Big Pun rest in peace whenever we're a 50 in the middle and yesterday was a 51, last week a 34 and last month a 37 in fear. Now that we surpassed 420 let's continue and kick it with our charts and we'll do a little live chart action. Jackson satisfaction, Bo Jackson for the Brosis. And as you can see via trading V via Coinbase, we do have a bullish pennant but unfortunately you see big ass red candles of the past couple of hours. Yeah we were looking good up until then and then we have a blue bull scenario sitting at 133. What's the the scenario 133 send it. I mean why not? And zooming it out, we'll take a look at a four hour. The four hour chart says it's going up forever. Jv. There's also a blue target here. Shout out Papa Smurf rep in the blue and Leonardo one of the Ninja Turtles, you know, I mean but anyways, 134 three in play on the four hour and you also notice two big ass. Yeah, I mean red candles. Unfortunately that just occurred here more recently. And checking out the daily and now silver lining. I believe the Fed rate cut is Wednesday, which is tomorrow. I think that's going to be very bullish but we shall See, there's a bull target on the daily sitting at 146. It's a bull flag 146 in play again on the daily chart. Taking a quick peek into the future. I'm just playing. Taking a peek into the weekly chart. You do see it's a nice green candle which is cool. We close in a green candle after two red candles. But already for the new week, due to today's correction, we're back in the red. Unfortunately, no particular bull targets on the weekly and checking out the monthly. And the other silver lining is November's historically the most bullish month of the entire year. Historically, October's the second most bullish month and believe it or not, we are in the red. Unfortunately due to the massive correction in France flash crash we have witnessed and we have yet to recover. Yesterday we were back in the green for the month, but guess what? It's not over yet. There's still three days left to go. And like I referenced earlier, we can get some bullishness in the market with the Fed rate cut anticipated like with 98 odds to take place tomorrow. And then also it is the bitcoin white paper anniversary, 17 years on Halloween Day, which is also three days out, which I dare say is bullish. But now let's entertain a little more analysis paralysis. Checking out what some of the analysts have to say. FOMC meeting injects Bitcoin price volatility. That's right, and a move that traders found increasingly surprising. Bitcoin buck the trend. I say buck the Fed. Let's buck it up. Dropping prior to the major US inflation events, in this case the Federal Reserve interest rate decision, which I have referenced several times already, expected to cut the rates by 25 basis points points, which is virtually a quarter of a percentage point. So far so good of the bitty. Nicely holding up here. Doing a slight retest after the crypto trader Mal Van A Pop reacted on X alongside this chart. I would assume we're bottoming here today and we'll start the uptrend in the remainder of the week. But little did he anticipate.

A separate post, he argued the inverse correlation between bitcoin and gold was helping fuel the uptick. The former drop to 3,800 anounce after hitting a new all time high close to 4,400 anounce and a new market cap all time high of 30 trillion before dropping and shedding two and a half trillion in a single day. Which is pretty wild. Gold coming down and consolidating heavily bullish for the RISON assets including the Alts Meanwhile Trader Killa meanwhile had 117,000 in mind as part of a pre focal loco top before the price returned lower to fill the latest gap of the CME Group's Bitcoin futures market near 11,000. Meanwhile, he wrote, you're welcome my LTF plan playing out perfectly bullish narrative into the fomc. Meanwhile the CME gap as you can see is not far away from where we're at. It's revisiting 11112 and that's literally just above a thousand dollars from the current price action. So that leads me to ask you the question, do you think we fill the CME gap roughly a thousand below the current price action? Do let me know. Next Headline Trump's True Social Moves into prediction markets with crypto.com I guess another partnership. It seems there's a new partnership with the Trump family virtually every day in crypto. I mean, just saying. Trump Media and Technology Group, the tech and media company co founded by the Trumpster, plans to enable production prediction markets on its own social media platform, Truth Social. And speaking of True Social, besides the Oracle and jv, who else has a True Social account? Let me know. You can find bitcoin news alerts over there. Just FYI, Trump's True Social has partnered with crypto.com a major US crypto exchange. I'm sure you've heard of them. It's one of the larger ones out there, according to the official announcement they announced shared here today, quoting them here. For too long the global elites have closely controlled these markets with truth predictions. We are democratizing info and empowering everyday Americans to harness the wisdom of the crowd, turning free speech into actionable foresight. True Socials Move into Prediction Markets Come amid the booming global prediction market industry, with two major industry players, Kalshi and Polymarket, leading the trend. Those are the two biggest now since the launch of 2022. True Social amassed 6.3 million users as of January 2025, which is really a drop in the bucket in comparison to a platform like AX trailing far behind platforms like AX, which have 650 million users in early 2025. But according to the statement by TMTG, True Social's prediction market integration will begin beta testing live on their social media platform in the near future. Following the beta launch, True Social expects to proceed with a full launch of Truth Predict in the US And I'm actually curious how many of you have actually made a bet on Cali or Poly Market. Do let me know now. With the upcoming Truth Predict launch targets, the U.S. market explicitly establish market players like Cali and Polymarket facing challenges and offering their prediction markets in the U.S. on Monday, CI filed a lawsuit against the New York State Gaming Commission accusing the regulator of overstepping its jurisdiction by issuing a season assist order for allegedly illegally offering sports betting in the state. Also, Polymark is currently in the process of resuming operations of the US after the platform had to exit back in 2022 following a settlement with the CFTC for operating an unregistered derivatives trading platform. The CFTC and the U.S. department of some would refer Justice I refer to as the Department of Corruption, but since have since dropped investigations against polymarket, underscoring the softening approach to crypto as a whole under the Trump Admin. Meanwhile, Donald Trump Jr. Eldest son of the President and the Executive Vice President of the Trump Organization, joined Poly Markets Advisory Board in August and there you go yo. I mean Trump. He's involved with everything regarding crypto at this point, but our next story London tops 1 billion in Bitcoin back Loan Originations as Crypto Lending Surges that's right, digital asset lender London has reported a record quarter for his Bitcoin back credit products as more investors choose to borrow against their holdings amid the ongoing crypto bull. The company originated 392 million of Bitcoin back loans during the third quarter, pushing year to date originations past 1 billion. Since the inception, London issued more than 2.8 billion in total loans across 100 countries. London reported generating 100 million in annual reoccurring revenue. The company provides fully collateralized loans. Let me know if you've ever heard of them or ever entertain the idea of a Bitcoin back loan with Bitcoin collateral held in custody throughout the lending protocol. Lendon's reserves are verified through independent third party proof of reserve attestations. Also, Lendon discontinued ether lending. That's a smart move too volatile earlier in the year to focus exclusively on its bitcoin custody and lending business. And as of April, a report by Galaxy Research identified Lendon as one of the three largest centralized finance lenders alongside Tether and Galaxy. Together, the holy trinity of these companies accounted for nearly 89% of the CI lending market and 27% of the overall digital asset lending market. At the same time. Meanwhile, Bitcoin surge above 100 GS created a new wealth effect amongst the long term hudders, prompting many to borrow against their bitcoin rather than sell and incur capital gains taxes. And according to the recent estimate from Hoskin and Harcourt llp, a Canadian law firm specializing in financial regulation and digital assets, the bitcoin backed lending market can grow to 45 billion by 2030, up by roughly eight and a half billion from today. Also, institutional interest is accelerating. Earlier this year, Cantor Fitzgerald completed its first bitcoin back lending deal in partnership with Maple Finance and Falcon X, underscoring Wall street growing participation in the credit crypto credit market. Meanwhile, Canter announced its entry into the bitcoin back lending market back in 2024, backed by an initial 2 billion in capital. And as you know, there's actually quite a lot of bitcoin back loan companies nowadays. You also got Strike, Jack Muller's company, we just referenced Canterbury, there's Galaxy, London and quite a few others. Let me know if you guys have ever entertained the idea. And I know I'm, I've shared this a million times so I'm not going to get into it, but that's how I purchased my home back in 2022, back in March. It was a bitcoin back loan and you know what I mean, there's pros and cons, naturally. And I always could give personal opinions based on my experience, not advice whatsoever. The only one qualified to provide financial advice is by the name of Jimbo Kramer, the mad money guy. He's crazy. But, but anyways, yeah, just be careful. If you ever borrow, make sure you're in a position to pay it back. Number one, common sense, right? And number two, if you're anticipating a potential market crash, you could get what's called a margin call. And if you don't add more collateral, you can get liquidated. And that's a worst case scenario where they take all of your collateral because you didn't have enough collateral to back it up when the market crash. So it's very risky and oftentimes people pushing the bitcoin lending products, they don't make it clear what can potentially happen. So I want you to know if you borrow against your bitcoin, there's always the possibility that your collateral gets taken because the market crashes. Unless you have a tremendous amount of backup Bitcoin to add as collateral. And you're willing to risk it all for the Biscuit. Risk it for the Biscuit.

Visit t mobile.com no biscuit, no risk it simple and plain. But anyways okay Bitcoin are for the stacking not for the loaning. Now don't get me wrong, I'm sure the loan company is crushing it doing well. But again high risk. I must say it's not low risk. Borrowing against bitcoin is a high risk play. So if you're not a high risk player, don't waste your time. That's. I'll leave it at that if you're willing to take the high risk. You know, blessings, you know, wish you luck. You want to play the game craps. You roll the dice. Either crap out or you get 711 and you win. Go either way. In my case, the market crashed and fell out from underneath two weeks after my loan and I was forced to pay it off or lose all my collateral. And I was fortunate to be in a position to pay it off and receive my collateral. But it would have been one of my biggest losses of all time. If, you know, I, I didn't do it. Smart, smarter. I should say so. I can only imagine how many people just got liquidated with bitcoin back loans when we just had the flash crash. 103 it the the market can collapse and pull the rug so fast you don't have time to add the collateral. You just automatically get liquidated. Like hypothetical. Say you have a loan at this price. Oh, it can only go up. You know, we bottomed out looking at 500,000. End of the year you get the loan and then we crash. $30,000 like a. Where'd that come from? You know, bloodbath. You know, I mean, didn't expect it. And then you lose wipeout. You keep that in mind. Happens when you least expect it. Right. Like I didn't anticipate the market to collapse right after I took out the loan. I wouldn't have never took out the loan. Next story of the day. Bitcoin either. Treasuries have ghosted since the crypto crash. That's right. Digital Asset treasury companies Dats buy Bitcoin have largely ghosted the post October 10 drawdown and are yet to re engage. Interesting. Over the last two weeks bitcoin buying by dats fell to the near year to date lows and have not meaningfully recovered even on the green days. Speaking of green day, remember the album Dookie classic. The crypto buying slowdown signals the sector is cautious as the values of the many crypto treasury companies have been sliding towards the value of their asset holdings while their stock prices have cooled off from their massive rallies. Sometimes I give myself the creeps, sometimes my mind plays tricks on me. Meanwhile, I'm speaking a little green day for you. Bitcoin fell 9% in the 10-10-11th period dropping from 121.5 to Lowe's of 110. 55 fallen lows below 105. The flash crash. We did touch 103, then recovered today 116. And now we're back, you know, I mean and potentially going to revisit the CME gap of 111. The do do said the Bitcoin l from bitcoin buying companies is significant as they're usually the heavy hitters with the deeper pockets. But there are pullbacks since October 10th signals and limited confidence on their part. Shout out to the doing doing do the Buying Slowdown highlights some caution Often the large players post leverage washout even as the current support levels the do do do said the Ether Treasure company Bit Mine Immersion Tech has been the only consistent buyer since the market dropped, with data showing it spent close to 2 billion since October 10th purchasing up 483,000 ether. Ether fell alongside Bitcoin earlier in the month, dropping over 15% to a low of 3,600, but has since slightly recovered. We're currently right above 4,000 bit mines buying alongside smaller contributions from the other funds has bullied buoyed the total 7 day purchases by ETH treasury companies into the positive. However, he added that if the company slows or pauses, we worry that the apparent corporate bid could fade. We think this warrants more cautious positioning for the short term. According to deoing doing, the market appears more fragile when the Bitcoin biggest discretionary balance sheets are sidelined. And there you have it. Yo, there's the latest. What's happening there? Next story open AI restructures Public Benefit Corporation Microsoft secures 27 state big mistake, Microsoft. You should have adopted Bitcoin. But hey, Open AI developer behind the chat GBT converted its organizational structure into a public benefit corporation, a shift designed to give the company greater flexibilities to raise capital and scale its AI ambitions of a rider. Rest in peace, Pac. If he's really not here with us, no more. Not just chillaxing in Cuba, I'm just saying. And according to the Wall Street Journal, the resurrecting grants Microsoft 27% stake of the new entity, valid at roughly 135 billion. The agreement extends Microsoft's Access Open AI's core tech for the next seven years. And as part of the deal, Open AI committed to spending 250 billion she's Louise on Microsoft's Azor cloud services over the lifetime of the partnership, further solidifying the company's strategic financial interdependence. Public Benefit Corporation remains for profit entity, allowing it to raise capital, issue equity and generate returns for the investors. In other words, the restructuring doesn't defuse Elon's criticism of OpenAI. The billionaire has argued that the company betrayed its founding mission by shifting away from the nonprofit roots to pursue commercial partnerships and profits. Sounds like low key. Elon's jealous. Personally, I think rock sucks donkey dick, but that's just me. ChatGPT remains the world's most widely used large language model, with an estimated 800 million weekly active users. That's insane. According to this data right here. So it's like practically one out of ten human beings are already hu on the planet are using it. The model's capabilities extend far beyond conversation as it's increasingly being integrated into AI power trading bots for both crypto and traditional stock markets. So, yeah, good luck trading against these AI bots that are 10 billion times more intelligent. These bots leverage chat GBT to analyze the market, learn from trading patterns and refine their strategies of real time. Recently, researchers compared the performance of several large language models trained by crypto trading or for crypto trading. The study found gro developed by ax Deep se. That's the Chinese model and outperformed chat GBT and Google's Gemini is simulated crypto trading. The experiment began with each bot trading an initial $200 in capital, later scaling to 10,000 per model with all transactions executed on hyper liquid, a decentralized exchange. And if you don't know, now you know, bro. And next up is our feature story of the day, the moment we've been waiting for. France considering a bill to accumulate 2% of the bitcoin supply. Come on, Trump. Mr. Shangping almost said CZ's name. My bad President, she I should have said. And Mr. Putin and the rest of you guys out there, you oligarchs, what are we going to do about it? Are you going to let France win the global hash? I think not. So game theory in full effect. Now for our feature story of the day. This is a big story. France considers a bill to accumulate 2% of Bitcoin's total supply, establishing a bitcoin strategic reserve. The bill proposes the acquisition of 4, 420, 000 Bitcoin over seven to eight years, as well as using nuclear and hydro power to mine the pretty little bitty. Going up forever, Laura. And it was actually also published here on cointelegraph. But first, I want to give you some other news stories that caught my interest. U S Congressman proposing backing the US Dollar with bitcoin. And a couple of tweets from the high priest Max wrote. As predicted, the holy dial tone is here. The bitcoin singularity is now telepathically.

Your sats are my sats. My sats are your sats. Stack size means nothing, but it was important to think so to kill fiat and central banking. And that was off the back of this news Posted by Autism Capital New United states announces for 490 billion investment in Japan, including the Human Instrumentality Project, Japan's AI program to force the evolution of humanity by dissolving individual entities and merging all human souls into a single unified consciousness. It's almost like an episode of the Twilight Zone. And Max also wrote here a little earlier off the back of this news breaking the metal mirage is over. The global precious metals bubble has popped. Trigger the imf, the World bank two meetings ago reset the Mac, blah blah blah. Max responded. Check it. Easing tightness equals massive flood of naked short sales by the cartel must be referring to the fiat cartel. This works because gold is relatively centralized because Bitcoin is genuinely decentralized. A coordinated takedown by the cartel can't stop bitcoin going to 2.2 million per bitcoin. Let me know if you agree Disagree with the High Priest and now diving deeper into the French government set to review a motion to embrace Bitcoin and crypto let's break her down, shall we? Lawmakers in France are set to review the proposal, which could have significant implications for the country's adoption of digital currencies from stable coins to the king crypto, better known as Bitcoin, and a motion from the resolution introduced Wednesday. Eric Katti of the Union of the Right for the Republic led a proposal for France's national assembly to ban the digital euro. Now we're talking potentially being pioneered by the European Central bank and instead to promote the dissemination of euro stable coins and investments in crypto assets. The motion cited the US Efforts to ban central bank digital currencies, better known as CBDCs, and promote stable coins, which unfortunately are just another name for CBDCs, through the genius act signed into law in July. This proposed European resolution therefore calls on the government to advocate for the future European prudential framework specific to the crypto asset exposures to deviate specifically from the 2022 basil standard to facilitate the pledging of crypto assets while maintaining the objective of a substantial overhaul of these rules within the BASIL Committee. According to the motion, I mean, the proposal did not explicitly mention establishing a national Bitcoin reserve, but reports suggest that SEAT intended to have the French government hold 2% of the total supply in Bitcoin, worth about 48 billion at the current prices. Such a move would also follow the US Government's efforts to establish a strategic bitcoin and crypto reserve and part of the using the tokens of seized through criminals, drug traffickers, anti money laundering, tax avoidance. The motion, which as of Tuesday did not appear to have been considered by the French lawmakers, was the latest in the country's national assembly potentially affecting policy on crypto and bitcoin. And back in August, the political party Resemblement national reportedly pushed for the French government to mine bitcoin and surplus energy from the country's nuclear power plants so you can use the nuclear energy to mine the b in addition to the US Government's efforts under President Trump to develop bitcoin and crypto stockpiles, which could potentially be bolstered by 14 billion seizure from the Cambodian pig butchering romance scam. And that's right, that was reported and actually published by the Department of Justice. We covered that on the podcast. So they just acquired another 120000 plus Bitcoin through that scam. Also Kagistan or Kristan's she I don't know pronounce these countries Lawmakers reportedly began exploring the creation of a digital asset reserve following discussions with the former Binance CEO Shangping Zhao, better known as cz, who just got pardoned by the Trumpsters, who works as an advisor to the government crypto committee. Meanwhile, one of the economic hubs in the Kingdom of Bhutan said in January it planned to set up a strategic crypto reserve using Bitcoin and other tokens. And there you have it. What are your thoughts on this bill From France surrounding purchasing 2% of the Bitcoin supply, roughly 420000 of the bitties? Do you think this will take place as the global hash war and game theory continues to play out all around the world? How would this affect the United States with Cynthia Lummis's initial proposal to buy a million bitcoin, or I should say acquire through net neutral strategies, which is the way they should do it according to their executive order. And the proposal was virtually 200000 Bitcoin over the course of 45 years until they had a stockpile of a million. Let me know. And also your thoughts with the Bitcoin singularity and what I shared out of Japan. That was pretty, pretty freaky, freaky. And then regarding Max Kaiser's 2.2 million bitcoin price prediction, let me know and I'll read your comments out loud. Welcome everyone to the Q and A segment of the live stream. It's very hard to accumulate more bitcoin than is actually available number one. And number two, I mean if you got the money, money talks, walks. If they have the reserves to make it happen, I mean who's the same? No, like for example if the government has reserve with let's say I don't know the numbers right now, but hypothetically say $10 billion. And if they genuinely wanted to, they can do whatever the they want. But the question sometimes is is that really what they want to do or is that just speculation? Is that just bullshit? Is it to mislead us? You know, anything a suit says you take with a grain of salt like Jimbo Kramer. The biggest reason is this. As soon as they begin to pass any bill to do so, everybody else will buy up the supply. Good. I can't wait for that to happen. Pushing the price astronaut. So we only need one country to act.

It's coming. And don't forget to check out bitcoin newsalerts.net for the full premium experience with video and to participate in the live stream along with the Q A.
