supply model just snapped. And most people won't understand it until they're priced out. Because once institutional capital starts colliding with a fixed supply, the market stops behaving rationally and reprices violently. Listen to this. CZ turned 900,000 into 121 million with Bitcoin. Let that sink in. 900,000 to 121 mil. That's a 134X move. And somehow most people still think bitcoin is too expensive. And meanwhile 12 trillion dollar Charles Schwab just opened Bitcoin trading today to 40 million customers. And Michael Saylor strategy raised enough capital this week to acquire 5,525 bitcoin. That's 12 times more than the miners created this week. This is no longer a speculative trade. Think about it. This is a global acquisition event. Because here's what happens next. One buyer proves the model the then capital starts copying it. Saudi government link capital just increased exposure. Norway's largest pension fund increased exposure as well. Meta planets already proving bitcoin treasury strategy can become a business model. They have over 40,000 bitcoin by the way. This is how supply shocks spread. Not all at once, then suddenly all at once. Because once capital realizes bitcoin is scarce, waiting becomes dangerous. They all see the same thing. Scarcity. Because bitcoin isn't a stock. It doesn't just issue more shares and it doesn't dilute supply. It doesn't create inventory because demand just increased. Fixed means fixed. 21 million and even that number is fiction. Millions are gone forever lost wallets burned keys. Satoshi, 1.1 million untouched coins. Long term holders who haven't sold in years. Which means the actual liquid bitcoin is a tiny fraction. Now introduce Schwab. 40 million new clients. Even if a microscopic percentage decides to allocate, where does the supply come from? That's the math people keep ignoring. Because everyone imagines they'll just buy bitcoin later at 150 or 300,000 later after confirmation. But confirmation is exactly what causes repricing. That's how scarce assets work. People wait for certainty. Certainty creates demand. Demand collides with the thin supply. Price gaps upward violently. And Sailor understands this better than anyone. He's not buying Bitcoin because he thinks it might go up. He's buying because he believes the market structure itself forces repricing. That's why it talks about $10 million bitcoin not as hype, but as arithmetic. Now zoom out even further. What happens if Schwab clients allocate Saudi capital scales? Pensions increase exposure, Meta planet clones multiply. Treasury companies replicate strategy. Nations join for the global adopt of the global hash war. And retail FOMO returns against what supply? That's the real question. Because once enough capital chases a fixed asset, price stops behaving normally. That's why CZ's story matters most. People see the past and think, wow, CZ got lucky. Wrong. The market always makes Bitcoin look expensive right before making it look cheap. In hindsight, that happened at a thousand, at ten thousand, fifty thousand, even at a hundred thousand. Same psychology, same mistake, different price. And if institutional adoption is only now entering the real acceleration phase, then the move people think they missed may have barely started. So the real question is, what happens when 40 million new buyers get access while Bitcoin is already being bought faster than it can be created? What I just described, that's the clean version. The real numbers are even nastier because once you see who's buying, you understand what why this market feels broken. Take a look at this strategy Stretch. STRC has now raised enough money to buy 5525 Bitcoin this week. 12 times more than what is mined this week. So they're outpacing the miners by a factor of 12. Also breaking news, $12 trillion. Charles Swab officially rolling out spot bitcoin trading to retail clients. This is official as of today. The first group of clients can now officially trade Bitcoin. And they're recommending up to 7% allocations. Check out this clip.

B
An aggressive investor say they typically put 96% of their portfolio in stocks might be comfortable with 20% of the portfolio's risk in bitcoin. That would translate to an allocation of just under 7%.

A
Bitcoin 101. You can't short your dorks. You can't afford that. Also, this is a breaking new interview. CZ reveals selling his house for 900,000, turning it into 121 million. What got you to the point of saying I have to, I have to be able to get into bitcoin?
- [05:49]
C
I started learning about Bitcoin in 2013, right? And at the time I was like, what? 36, 37? And then I was like, okay, this is the future technology. This is bigger than the Internet. I don't know what I'm going to do yet, but I'm going to buy bitcoins first. So I sold my house, sold my apartment and bought bitcoin. So that was like pretty clear to me. That was a very long term conviction.
- [06:09]
A
What did you. Is this a $900,000 apartment?
- [06:11]
C
Yes, this is a $900,000 apartment.
- [06:13]
A
And when you bought it at the time, what was the average price of bitcoin?
- [06:16]
C
Average price I got in was about 600. I bought it. I got payments in installments, right? So I bought it at 800, 600, 400.
- [06:22]
A
So average 12, we do 900,000 divided by 681,000. You're looking at $121 million. But yeah, you're looking at the richest man in crypto. I just did a quick little search on Google and the AI says his net worth is somewhere between 40 billion and 110 billion. I'm leaning more towards the latter. Obviously there's different reports between Bloomberg and Forbes, etc, but he is probably most likely the richest man in all cryp crypto. If you're not familiar with cz, you're probably living under a rock. But he is the founder of the largest exchange in the world, which is according to Janet Yellen Finance and let me know if you ever use the Binance Exchange. They also have a United States arm for US residents as well. But CZ the richest man to ever go to jail. He served several months in jail when there was that big lawsuit I think filed by the DOJ or whatever. And he had to pay like multiple billion dollar extortion and still go to jail and then step down from his company as the CEO.

I'm your host JV alongside Fed Chair Nip Anator doing what he does best keeping them nipinating. Today is May 13, 2026 breaking $2 trillion. Wells Fargo just bought $42 million of more MSTR. The largest financial giants are buying Bitcoin and a lot of them love mstr. Have you noticed the trend? Every day we're sharing more and more banks and institutions investing into mstr. Also the Saudi government owned Golf International bank in the UK increased its position in Bitcoin treasury company strategy MSTR as well by 53% bringing its total holdings to 20,200. Shares were just shy of $4 million. But wait, there's more Bitcoin treasury company Meta planet reported almost 20 million in revenue for the first quarter this year forecasting 101 million for 2026, 80% higher than 2025. Here's an interesting perspective. One year ago Meta planet just started adopting bitcoin following the sailor put copying strategies play and they only had 4000 bitcoin. One year later they now have in excess of 40000 bitcoin meaning they 10x their holdings in 12 months which is pretty impressive. Also Norway's largest pension fund KLP increase its position ATR to 104000 shares. They now have $20 million worth. And every day we're just reading more and more pension funds, you know, retirement funds, countries, sovereigns, all adopting bitcoin one way or another. Also, this is the breaking news. Today the United States officially elected pro bitcoin Federal reserve chair Kevin Warsh.

The eyes are 54, the nays are 45. The nomination is confirmed under the previous order. The motion to reconsider is considered, made

and laid upon the table.

B
The president will be immediately notified of the Senate's action.
- [11:21]
A
So we did it fam. We got a pro bitcoin fed chair besides Nip Anator and that's kind of a big deal. Nip Anator has given us the signal though early and this is the only signal that matters in all of bitcoin. So shout out to the original OG pro bitcoin fed chair Nipinator. Also David Sachs says tomorrow's markup of the digital asset market clarity act is a monumental step in making the U. S the crypto capital of the world. And Nipinator wants to say hello to you beautiful people out there. Nip just gave the signal and he's making it official. He's got his John Hancock AKA his paw, signed the executive order, Mahlers dropped the end game, planning on buying over $60 billion worth of the biddy. He says we want to be the largest holder of of bitcoin.
- [12:08]
B
Now we have what it takes to build massive cash generating businesses within the industry. Strike is one of the most profitable per employee bitcoin companies in the world. Tether is probably the most profitable per employee company period in the history of mankind. And then conversely, we're already the third largest corporate holder of bitcoin. We will be able to add to that position substantially once we're approved. And we want to be the largest holder of bitcoin and we think we can take the best of what strategy is which is a large bitcoin holder and ability to accumulate whether it's through monetizing volatility, cheap costs of capital, access to the capital markets and the best of someone like Coinbase, which is a first mover and a leader within the industries they focus, which Tether and I have been in our careers.
- [12:47]

Well, there you have it. Watch out, Michael Saylor. Jack Mers is coming and he has the backing of Canter Fitzgerald as well as Tether. Saylor just made a tweet here. He wrote 2 cents of volatility, 508 million of liquidity closed at par. Just raising capital like a madman. And all the capital that he raises through these vehicles such as STRC flows into the pre little bitty going up forever. Laura Tate says, I've been telling you to get rich for years. But more importantly, is this strategic reserve. How can you benefit from the fact that the United States of America is very likely to adopt bitcoin into a strategic reserve? How can you benefit from that if you don't have any money? This is a thought experiment. Now you should have money because you should have been preparing for this. And I've been talking about it for years. He has been preaching from the rooftops about bitcoin for a very long time as so have I. Literally eight years straight, doing a podcast every day and dedicating myself to orange pilling the masses, you know, and I'm not slowing down. I'm still here each and every day. So hopefully you guys are taking heed. $30 billion Circle CEO just told Fox the big banks will fail to block the bitcoin and crypto market structure. It's a top agenda item for President Trump. The Clarity act will be law. So there you go. N FYI, the big Clarity act markup meeting is tomorrow to be discussed. And breaking news just in strategy today via STRC already raised enough capital to purchase 4851 Bitcoin. That means they have stacked over 10,000 Bitcoin this week and it's only hump day. Unprecedented stacking, pretty impressive. So right now, Saylor's strategy probably holds more Bitcoin than BlackRock. And it'll be official on Monday when he makes the announcement. But there you go, yo. Also, keep in mind he just referenced the genius act. There's a thin line between genius and. Some would call the genius act the act. But you tell me in the comments, Saylor said they Plan to buy 70 billion worth of Bitcoin, driving the price to $10 million per coin. Take it away, Mikey. What I've said is, is if we get to 5% of the network, bitcoin is going to be a million a coin. If I get to seven and a half percent of the network. It'll be 10 million a coin. Yeah. So obviously his ambition Is to collect 8% of the entire bitcoin network there will ever be. He's already closing in on 4% with a million bitcoin. And he did raise a half a billion dollars today, effortlessly through strc. I mean, who else is doing it like Michael Saylor? The answer, nobody. What's the second best? There is no second best.

- [16:05]
D
I'm comfortable. Say out loud, I'm buying bitcoin left and right the last 48 hours because I'm cost averaging out. It was a buck and a quarter. It's 68,000. It can go down to 30,000. If I said here right now, y', all, you have to buy bitcoin and you guys aired this tomorrow, I'm sure you have a process, but if you did and it goes from 68 to 42, people are going to be mad at me. But I'm saying 68 by now for 13 years from now.

Shout out to Gary Vee for promoting bitcoin here. But let's not forget he was pushing NFTs harder than anyone else that I know and giving advice on influencers to launch their own NFT scams, including the Nelk boys. And those didn't fare so well. So. So be careful. You know, anything someone shares with you take with a grain of salt, including myself. Just because I have my own podcast doesn't mean anything I say is gospel, even though I do preach the holy gospel of Satoshi seven days a week, 365 days out of the year. And this is pot episode 23, 37 and all. But even a broken clock is right two times a day. You know, Jimbo Kramer comes to mind as well. Peter Schiffmeister. Here's the Dilio. You starting to see the massive accumulation. They're swarming right now for the bitcoin. So much money is being raised, so much untapped capital. Tapping in to bitcoin in the form of digital credit via Michael Saylor what he has engineered. We have the institutions via BlackRock. They're both racing to that 1 million mark. There's other companies such as 21 and Meta Planet. Now we have the nation state adoption. The United States has over 320000 Bitcoin. We have a bitcoin strategic reserve that is meant for stockpiling. What if we were to do a major play and actually follow what Sailor was telling Trump to do which is to sell our gold reserves, right? Rugging the bricks and then watch bitcoin soar and then gold get devalued in real time. What happened to the diamond market recently? Anyone pay attention to the diamond market? They discovered lab grown diamonds which can be produced for 1/5 the price and the diamond market has plummeted. I believe they'll be able to do the same thing with gold whether they're just discovering more and investing more to mine it from the earth or whether they're using alchemy to turn worthless metals such as tungsten and transform it into gold or silver. In fact I've already read mainstream studies that they're capable of doing that. So how can we have a store of value that we can just add more? Do you know every year they add more to the goal supply? Every single year without fail the total supply increases. Bitcoin is the only asset with a true finite limited supply and nobody can change that. And let's add the icing on the cake to many is going to be the fact that's unconfiscatable. All other forms of money can be taken away from you the same way the government's trying to take your soul. Just saying. Stack the bitcoins now because it's the ultimate hedge against uncertainty, chaos, inflation, Palm Beach, Pete Epstein and all those clowns running this show, if you know what I'm saying. If bitcoin is too risky for you, you should invest in our company that gives you some paper bitcoin promises instead and that's way less risky. Pretty much, brother. I still have a million this year. My bear scenario is 500,000. Send it. 100x gains are over because the money printers are in. I disagree. I think we'll see another 100x. It's just not going to be in one cycle. Point 1 Bitcoin will make you a millionaire. One Bitcoin will make you a billionaire sooner than you think. All I gotta say to that. Send it. So what happens to the bitcoin price when 40 million new buyers gain access, but the supply is already being drained.
