Welcome to on the Chain. This is Jeff here with co host Chip. What is going on, Chip? What's going on everybody out there in the on the Chain world? Tonight we're going to deep dive into Ripple, XRP and the R L USD stablecoin. Why it's not just another crypto asset, but infrastructure built for, you know, it, the global economy. It's not the fanboy, the YouTube fanboy global economy. It's the real economy. We're talking about real infrastructure, not fomo, not hype. We'll also cover the growing push for crypto laws in D.C. the bipartisan support, well, almost bipartisan building behind it and what it means for real adoption. Now, on the geopolitical side, President Trump went overseas over the pond to the UK unlike anything we've seen before. And over here in the U.S. cash Patel running that FBI, getting ready to shut down the Washington insiders while Jimmy Kimmel gets kicked off the air, which is about kind of, kind of almost.
Chip
Looking murkier.
Jeff
Murky, murky, murky. At best, it's crypto, politics, culture and geopolitics all colliding into one. That's why we do it right here on the chain, no place else. So if you're ready to dive in head first into the shallow end for maximum impact, let's go.
Announcer
Welcome to on the Chain.
Chip
Welcome everybody to on the Chain. Where is everybody? Jeff, where is everybody? I see Chad is in here. I see Steadfast is in how many XRP for each person in the world? Let's go. A number, boys. Actually, I saw a interesting stat which I should have clipped now that you present this clip here, but who is the one that put that? I'm going to look real quick and see if I can find it. Let's see who put that out.
Jeff
I also want to let everybody know that we have not one but two auctions rolling tonight. Two big auctions. One for a song that we played last time, the very first on the Chain. Badass Yeti nft song. And that's available at auction. I'm going to share. That's the first auction that's rolling out. Then there's a second one and that one. Man, this guy is so badass. I love this guy, man. His name is Fimble thought and he's a shiver spine. We got two songs, not just one for tonight. I'm gonna throw in the auction for the first one. Why? Because it ends at 8:30. So this auction is ending at 8:30. Go ahead, click that link. Get your zombin Wall ready and bid on that one. That's on support of here on the chain. Fuller, the One Eyed Templar. This is his song. This is the song from the last show. 19 minutes left, man. Let's kick ass.
Chip
Let's do it.
Jeff
We're gonna play that song here in a little bit.
Chip
Let's wait for more people to file in first. Let's wait some more other people to come in.
Jeff
Yeah, I can't roll it out yet.
Chip
You need a bigger tongue punch line. Like. Yeah, tongue punch.
Jeff
19 minutes. 19 minutes.
Chip
Get people different numbers about wallet addresses. Too many scammers and crap. It's true. But let's look at this. So Dr. Artur Kjakov, he put this out. He said 538, 586. Wallets at XRPL have exactly 20 XRP. 20 XRP was the minimum reserve from 2013 to 2021. That's 10.7 million XRP just sitting in these wallets.
Jeff
So getting ready to be burned. Those are empty wallets. That's crazy.
Chip
People opened them for whatever reason and forgot about them. Forgot about them.
Jeff
Just like that. Boom, done.
Chip
They opened them and then they. They forgot them. Yeah. You think of 20, 21, then they reduced it. Then I think it was. They reduced it to 10 or something like that. Or 5. I don't remember what it was.
Jeff
Remember it started at 10, then it went to 20, then it went back. It's all over the map.
Chip
A lot of different numbers out there. So. So let's go through some stories here and see where. Did anybody get an alert tonight?
Jeff
Because that's why.
Chip
But I'm still waiting for my alert. I don't. I never get them.
Jeff
I didn't go. I didn't actually put it up until like 7.
Chip
58.
Jeff
58.
Chip
There you go.
Jeff
But I got mine. My notification came out already.
Chip
Mine doesn't. I never get a notification.
Jeff
It was a nice one, too. I get another nice one. Yeah. Yep.
Chip
I haven't got a notification in ages. I just get. I get no notifications. Oh, hang on a second. I'm lying. Look at this.
Jeff
Whoa.
Chip
I got. I did get one notification. How about that? All right. Watch live now. There it is. That's a rarity. I didn't see it popping my screen, but there it is.
Jeff
There it is.
Chip
You don't see. You think you see it, but bam, there it is, people. It's right there. Right before your very eyes. So that's all good.
Narrator
Yes.
Chip
Jump into this here. Jumping a ripple.
Jeff
They get them up in Canada.
Chip
That's what makes a stable COIN truly useful Infrastructure adoption no infrastructure is Jack McDonald who run basically runs that department inside of Ripple highlights interoperability transparency scale all underpin this usability as infrastructure and the RL USD is was built on these principles as enterprise grade fully backed solution designed to serve the go the global economy Kelly says paid 2222 for mine. 22. I don't remember 22. Do you remember that?
Jeff
I do not but I'm sure it existed at some point. Nope. Force, force PW Bob just stumbled on.
Chip
That's okay. You can stumble. It's great. Here's what we do here stumbled in. We do xrp, we do some crypto, cryptos and then we jump into geopolitics. That's pretty much it. That's what we do.
Jeff
That's fine.
Chip
As real as you possibly can.
Jeff
Keeping it real.
Chip
No false notifications in Canada. We rock, we roll Canada, man. Still waiting for Canada to win the cup. It's been. It's been a drought since 93. Come on, boys, you got to win it.
Jeff
What?
Chip
You gotta win it this year. Who's gonna win it this year?
Jeff
Come on, who do you think?
Chip
I'm getting tired of Florida winning every year, Jeff.
Jeff
Florida's gonna win.
Chip
Not really. Not really.
Jeff
It's been in Florida now for six years. Six years in a row.
Chip
Who knows if it goes to plan. It's hard to say. I mean, you know, I was thinking conservatively like maybe 525. That's a number I've been kind of throwing around there because if we do get some of these ETFs kind of popping one's going, I think tomorrow, this week. Yeah, I do think that that will be. If you look at what really fueled the price for bitcoin, a lot of it had to do with the ETL. Almost like 70% of what was being purchased was on ETFs. So that was creating a lot of the volume, a lot of that. So I. I anticipate a lot of that will happen. And who knows? I mean, I've seen all kinds of crazy numbers. I see an official list is like 12 ETFs, but I see another list that gets circulated more like 18 to 21. Now they're on all spots, but it'll be interesting to see how that really plays the Blue Jays. The Blue Jays are in first place. The Yankees are coming on the heels. Yankees may indeed. But I was talking about. You think the Blue Jays are going to win this year or do you think it's gonna who's gonna go first? Baseball. What up? What up says John Page.
Jeff
What is up John Page?
Chip
John Page.
Jeff
It's the goat.
Chip
It's so funny they write these blog posts this is another one by Jack McDonald talking about are they all created equal? What really matters comes down the infrastructure talks about the genius act. So funny. The stable coins firmly entered the mainstream financial conversation and it's not no longer just about disrupting traditional finance they're also becoming strategic tools for orgs looking to reduce costs, increase user engagement, establish payment rails of their own and then the sudden influx of interest comes with risk misunderstanding what stable coins actually are. Too often we see stable coins design with limited scope tied to loyalty strategies in app economies, ecosystems. I don't know about that so true anymore. I think that might that's the old days I don't think I don't know if that's 100 true. Where there's need there's opportunity in contrast the present opportunities.
Jeff
Stablecoin for the real economy I agree, I agree with that. For the real economy you can't use crypto if you want to put it into a treasury it's kind of like putting you know stock securities into a treasury might go up, might go down, might you know, who knows what's going to happen. But stable coins for the real economy, for the spendable economy, for the liquidity in the economy, for global trade, for cross border payment supporting infrastructure, long term relevance, mainstream adoption, all of those things require a stable coin.
Chip
Yeah this is it right here. It has to have scalability, reliability and that's going to be the key thing. That's why I think the Ripple USD will emerge as and because it's so well backed, it's so well scripted behind the scenes as far as financially sound they've got a lot of money transmitter license they're very well set up there. It talks about here they built it around the principles in mind Compliance first compliance is key enterprise grade built for cross border payments like you said Jeff fully backed the one one Reserves the New York Department of Financial Services NYDFS built on that regulatory framework so it is really a sound when it comes to it. I kind of wonder about some of the other ones out there when I hear about audits and you don't really know the audit and they say they audited it but they're gonna audit it. It's like yeah I don't know questions. Seems like an inside a lot of inside jobs going on. There's substance over hype and but I mean it's it's here to stay. And you know, Ripple maybe entered the market a little bit later than they probably wanted to. But it makes sense, Jeff. It makes sense.
Jeff
Yeah.
Chip
100 they would have joined.
Jeff
It's all good. Hey, so. So we have some. A unique, you know, opportunity for you guys tonight. Supporting on the chain through two auctions and we're going to keep running these. This is the first time we've done two things. One, first time we've ever run an auction with an NFT and we're doing two of them. Threw one up. Then we put a second one up. So we're going to test it out twice today, see how it runs. Then we'll give more time for the auction so we can hype them up for multiple shows. Maybe do run like a one week, pick a special nft. But that's the first thing. First time ever doing an auction live. I don't think anyone's done an auction on an NFT live like this on their show that I've seen. And an XRPL based auction. You're muted. You're muted. Muted.
Chip
Did you mute me? How did I get muted?
Jeff
No, I didn't even touch it. I don't know.
Chip
I didn't mute myself. That's. I must have hit. You know what, I think I hit a key by mistake. If you hit the M key.
Jeff
Yeah, possibly. No.
Chip
What's.
Jeff
I don't know. My keyboards are way over there. The second one time that we've never done before, we minted the song from the last show. This is the thar. The oneey Templar. This was his song. So this is an NFT of a song. Chance to have that nft. You got the nice image there with the song. So this is it right here. And you know we can play that song but we've got a unique song that we're going to throw up tonight. And so got 10 minutes left in this auction, you know, so that's gonna be exciting. But I just want to show you guys how cool this is. Only because if you want real utility, like real world access to see the direction NFTs are going in, it's images, it's video, it's song. There's so much that we can do with it. These we're just, just playing around at this point. But it's exciting to see where this can go. But check this out.
Narrator
Forged in frost bound by steel.
Jeff
So that's kind of exciting. But now let's play the song for the auction. You can see you got 10 minutes left. I put the link up there. I'm gonna put the link up one more time. So here we go. There goes the link again. Go ahead. Check it out. Log into that brings you right to the x right to that auction connect your zaman wallet allows you to bid on it. So the starting bid was like one xrp. It's nothing. You can own a piece of history. So while we play this song, think about log into that. This is a one minute song too. I've never done a one minute song before. That's another first. That's.
Chip
Well, I don't think we've ever done a one hour show in a while either. So that's another.
Jeff
That's another first.
Chip
Sometimes we end with like 59 minutes and a few seconds. You know, it's like hard to get it exact.
Jeff
Yeah. But. Okay, here we go. I'm gonna throw this up there. Come support on the chain. Get. Get one of these guys. They'll be really cool. This is the song. Own the first of history.
Chip
Only have one xrp, man. Come on now.
Jeff
I don't know how this tracks the auction thing. I don't even know how to follow it yet. We've never done it before. I don't know if any Go back.
Chip
What is that? Moving seconds. Oh, look, it's. Yeah, nine minutes. And there it is. Yeah, you have to refresh the page if there's any. Do we even see the results on this, Jeff? How do we know if there's any?
Jeff
I don't know. We've never done it before. This will be a first. So we'll find out what happens. You guys get to experience.
Chip
Somebody has to at least put a bid on there. I don't even think we. We would see.
Jeff
Maybe someone did and maybe we don't see buy offers.
Chip
I don't know.
Jeff
I don't know. I don't know if it comes up, but I'm sure someone out there. Can you take one XP and test this out? This real world utility right here.
Chip
World utility. Real world xrpl baby, we're not messing around. Xrp Fast cafe. Let's go, baby.
Jeff
While we're. While we're doing that, let's play the song real quick. Here we go.
Chip
All right. Ice Wayne connection.
Narrator
To the temple of the blue tribe. Forged in frost in frost bound in bound steel One eye sees, one eye on shadow One arm one of the line of the line of honor. No storm breaks him, no darkness takes him.
Chip
Echoing I got echo on this.
Narrator
Templar his fate, his fate, his history.
Chip
Weird.
Narrator
Will be Claiming claims. Tonight, his auction. His auction at 8:30. Claim him. Claim him or be forgotten. Forgotten. Badass. Badass. Yetis. Yetis on the chain. On the chain. Is on the. Is on the chain.
Chip
Does anybody else hear echo? It's just echoes on my side.
Jeff
No echo.
Chip
It's like it's playing twice. I'm gonna ask everybody. I don't know.
Jeff
You might have two things open then. No, you're hearing it twice.
Chip
Somehow I don't believe I do. I only hear you once. You say an echo.
Jeff
Oh, really? That's weird.
Chip
Yeah, it was like. It was like just.
Jeff
Oh, really?
Chip
It was like two of them were playing like two seconds behind each other and I just couldn't focus on it.
Jeff
Oh, there was an echo. How bizarre is that? I didn't hear an echo. No, that's.
Chip
I'm telling you, there's an echo, dude, you gotta listen. Gotta pay attention, man. I don't know what it is.
Jeff
All right, come on.
Chip
Did you.
Jeff
Does anybody been on this yet? Come on. Somebody bid on it. Let's go. Rejected. What up? Your bid.
Chip
Hey, come on. It's one xrp. How many is rejected?
Jeff
Well, well, they forced. There's. There's a 1.5 XRP. Oh, because they forced you to do a result.
Chip
Yeah. So it's got to be a minimum of 1.5.
Jeff
It's got to be a minimum. Sorry. Of 1.5. I should have said that. I don't like reserves. I think reserves are ridiculous. We should be able. If I want to put it out at a half an xrp, we should be able to roll it at half an xrp. It's all about.
Chip
Well, they got to collect the auction.
Jeff
The reserve is just giving us a minimum. So I guess, you know.
Chip
Oh, but I think that. I think that's because they get paid.
Jeff
Oh, he did 10. Chad bid 10 and got rejected. Oh, maybe somebody bit higher than. I don't. But we don't even know what. What people have bid.
Chip
How do you know what the auction is? Is somebody better than that?
Jeff
We should know what was going on here. We should be able to see, you know, something. But there's. There's no way to see that. I've checked everything. All I can see here is I can cancel the auction. We should see that. So. And so is bidding. They still need to work on their. But we'll see what happens at the end of the auction. So let's. Let's move on. You guys can keep checking it out, keep trying, keep posting. Maybe somebody already threw 10xrp on it and then you were rejected.
Chip
Click on the NFTs listing to open the individual page. Provides detailed information including the current high bid and history of bids that have been placed on the item.
Jeff
Where do you see that though? How come we can't see it?
Chip
Are you connected to it?
Jeff
I'm in it. But I'm in it from our side. That's why you can see cancel the auction and that's it.
Chip
Right? You should see. I'm just reading what it says here. It says.
Jeff
Yeah, it's on XRP Cafe. So here's the link. This should bring you right to the auction.
Chip
It says it provides information including the current high bidder and history of all bids that have been placed on the item.
Jeff
Nothing. I don't see anything.
Chip
Yes, it's very strange.
Jeff
Huh?
Chip
How weird is that?
Jeff
I created one and I burned it. I burned the NFT that says.
Chip
I.
Jeff
Don'T want to refresh.
Chip
What's the auction called?
Jeff
Fuller. The One Eyed Templars. The auction is on XRP Cafe. Submission failed. The transaction requires logic that is currently disabled. What does that even mean? How bizarre is this? Requires logic says there's three offers. Where do you see that though?
Chip
On the homepage.
Jeff
Homepage.
Chip
On the auction homepage is what it says.
Jeff
Oh really? Yeah, there's an auction homepage.
Chip
Yeah, I'll show it to you.
Jeff
I'll go to auctions.
Chip
Share the screen. There it is right there. There it is. It says three auctions.
Jeff
Oh, there it is. Oh, look at that.
Chip
It says three offers.
Jeff
Three offers. Oh yeah, I see it over here too. Endings.
Chip
But how do you know what it is?
Jeff
The reserve. Reserve is 2 XRP. That's weird at first it even tells you what the reserve is.
Chip
Okay, but it doesn't tell you. Let me look at one of these other ones. Four offers. Let's see. These don't tell you either. Oh, it does tell you. Below I see.
Jeff
I log in and nothing.
Chip
Yeah, I see it. 3XRP is the offer. Look down. It's right down there. Click here. Show you my page here.
Jeff
Not on this page.
Chip
Sure. Three xrp.
Jeff
Oh, that's interesting. But if I'm connected I can't see it. I can't see my own buy offers. Let me. Let me refresh it. Let's see. Nope, look at that. Still nothing. I did a refresh of the page and I can't see it on my end.
Chip
Says three offers right here. But it only shows the one which is weird. Buy offers only 1 3. But that doesn't make sense is Chad bid 10, right? How does that make sense? Something's goofy here, man.
Jeff
Come on. XRP Cafe. Guys, get. Get with the program. It's about to end.
Chip
Did you connect your wallet?
Jeff
Oh, I'm on the. I'm on the other. I'm on the wrong guy here. Hang on a second. Oh, I'm on both the wrong guys. How did I. Oh. Because I refreshed it onto that guy.
Chip
There you go. It's this one right here, Right?
Jeff
Yeah. There we go. I think I was on the wrong one this whole time. I switched over to the wrong one. That's 17 minutes. This guy's got two minutes left. And there we go. Now that I reset it. Yeah. 3XRP. I reset it. Refresh.
Chip
There's the wallet right there.
Jeff
Two minutes left and two minutes. Two minutes. That's it. Let's go.
Chip
There's the wallet.
Jeff
Who's excited about bidding? All right.
Chip
A bunch of other. To have eight of them. Eight of these guys and seven of the tribe.
Jeff
Damn.
Chip
That's a big holding in there. Some AI.
Jeff
And that dog on the right, was that a bear?
Chip
Not that good with animals.
Jeff
Mo Meta Media offered successfully. Joe, buddy. Rigged. It's a rigged auction.
Chip
No, it's not true. They're just gonna. They're gonna have a stiff talking too.
Jeff
It doesn't have a song in a video.
Chip
No, it doesn't.
Jeff
He did have a song. We just never NFT it.
Chip
Correct. We didn't make an nft. We're happy to do it. We can go back into the archives and do that.
Jeff
I'm sure we have the.
Chip
If you wanted to. So.
Jeff
That's right.
Chip
So this thing is done. It's done in force. One minute.
Jeff
Okay? One minute. Sitting here watching an auction live.
Chip
While you're doing that.
Jeff
Attention while we're doing that.
Chip
Who talked about blockchain being a financial revolution but far from reach its potential assimilating into existing infrastructure mostly held back by legal uncertainty, of course, and the largest economy in the world. But the good news, it's rapidly changing. First the genius act, then clarity. Now the Responsible Financial Innovation act has taken shape in the Senate. Incredible to see the outreach from lawmakers and to our industry to listen to their practical applications with a commitment to write good laws that will protect consumers, foster innovation and flex with time. Thank you for your leadership on the rfia. Tim Scott and Senator Loomis Lummis. Rhymes with hummus. During Today's roundtable in D.C. we look forward to seeing crypto market structure written in the law with Bipartisan support, mostly Republican, but a few Democrats sprinkled in a couple for good measure. They're coming around, Jeff. I like to see that they're coming around as they're starting to. They need it, you know, so that's very good. How are we doing on our auction, Jeff?
Jeff
Auction's over. Auction ended.
Chip
All right.
Jeff
Somebody won three xrp. Look at that. You got that bad boy for three xrp. Kick ass. I think I'm like this auctions are fun. We'll run them a little bit longer. We'll do one auction in the week. We'll hype it up over a couple shows, get people fired up about it. It'll be fun. Yeah, a lot of fun with the auction.
Chip
Got the notice that it that on my phone.
Jeff
That it that it ended three. That's it done.
Chip
You gotta love it.
Jeff
That's it. It's closed. Now there's. Now there's one more now this guy's live. This guy's got now 14 minutes and we'll have a song for him. We'll play that here. Coming up in a little bit. So we got some time for him yet.
Chip
Indeed.
Jeff
But there's the link to him. All right, all right, let's move on, let's move on.
Chip
So Sonia, cool. Now she's. She runs the CEO at Idaco, official co founder of bitcoin events, blockchain and crypto events. Been doing it a while. She said it's a pleasure to have Ripple and the team involved in Bitcoin Events Co. 7th Crypto Fest in Cape Town, South Africa on 14th of November. Reese Merrick, managing director of Middle East Africa at Ripple, will participate as a speaker on this important topic. How banks are approaching their digital asset strategies. Huh? South Africa's top banks will be represented in this panel. And I'm curious about this topic as many are. Don't miss it. Program speakers and tickets. So there it is.
Jeff
That can be live or is that an online thing?
Chip
I think it's a. It's in person event. But look at this. My goodness. Holy cow. How long is this going to take to go through?
Jeff
It's not open.
Chip
Going to South Africa, Jeff. That's what's taking so long.
Jeff
There we go. I know it's far away.
Chip
Crypto fest. Here we go. Look at that.
Jeff
Oh, it's in Cape Town.
Chip
Yeah, I love that.
Jeff
I think we get invited to mc.
Chip
It's almost like a badass yeti over there.
Jeff
Almost. Oh, man, they're still badass yetis. I wonder where that one went. We lost it. There we go.
Chip
A little dude right there. I love this graphic, man. It's crazy.
Jeff
Is it all clickable?
Chip
No, no, it's just a cool graphic. That's.
Jeff
Yeah, it is very cool.
Chip
Floating in the background. Big old bitcoin.
Jeff
Look at the guy with his backpack.
Chip
Yeah, he's getting ready to.
Jeff
Getting ready to attend.
Chip
Just check it out.
Jeff
Yeah.
Chip
190 speakers.
Jeff
5,000 attendees. 5,000.
Chip
Why you should attend.
Jeff
I can't read it, so I don't.
Chip
Know if I can be there. Sandeep Null. Justin Sun. Wow.
Jeff
About Justin Sun.
Chip
Tone Vase. I actually ran into Tone Vase. I actually had a conversation with Tone Vase at bitcoin conference.
Jeff
That's right.
Chip
He's not like that. He's not. He's actually a really nice guy in person. You know, I was really shocked, Jeff. I think you were with me.
Jeff
I was there.
Chip
Yeah, he was just a really cool dude. I'm like, hey, Tone. He like turned around. I was like, hey, I want to get a picture. And he's very cool about it. Had a little chat with him. But he. Sometimes he comes off as crazy, but he just seemed like very, very, very well mannered in person. Who else do I recognize here? Leslie Lamb. She's over at Coin Flex. She got. Let's see, let's see the full list here of people. Just put their names under. Why do I have to do this, Michael?
Jeff
That's kind of annoying. I don't like Jordan. And then it covers up their face too. Yeah, I don't like that idea.
Chip
It's just put their name underneath it. I just want to scan the names. I don't sit there and like look over this. Honestly, I don't recognize a lot of this guy. Tether. I recognize him.
Jeff
Yeah, there's other people.
Chip
I don't even know who they are. Jeff.
Jeff
I don't know Speakers.
Chip
Am I out of that?
Jeff
Oh, that professor. Is that the professor? She was the professor that spoke at the Australian. Yeah, yeah. She came in via feed or video maybe. I think that was her.
Chip
It looks like her. I don't name looks different, but it kind of looks like her.
Jeff
It might have. She might add a different name.
Chip
But these are the people you could have seen. But they're not going to be there. These are the people. Oh, look at all these awesome people. I'm sorry. They were there last time. Oh, no. Why'd you put previous speakers? I guess until you get your first.
Jeff
It gets you hyped up from 23. Man, I wish I was there in 20, 23.
Chip
Gosh.
Jeff
I was there two years ago.
Chip
Of course, Reese is stoked. He's like, yeah, this could be a great event, man. Totally a great event.
Jeff
That's right.
Chip
Yeah. He's be a speaker. I mean, we'll probably have. Hopefully we'll get some videos or something from that 5XRP.
Jeff
Come on, guys. 10 minutes left. Look at this badass Yeti. Look at this shiver spine. You got to get him just for his name, right? Fimblethal.
Chip
Say that three times fast. I can't even say it once.
Jeff
He's of the shiver spine. These guys are terrifying. Look at that guy. Isn't that guy terrifying?
Chip
He's a little scared.
Jeff
The artwork is amazing.
Chip
It's all frightening.
Jeff
But this guy ends in 10 minutes, so get ready. Come on, guys. What's that?
Chip
Put the link, dude.
Jeff
It's right there. I just put it.
Chip
Okay, gotcha.
Jeff
Put it again. Let's put it again.

Charles Hoskinson. So he was at that big shindig they had today and he said, great meeting today. XRP Nation. The ripple folks did really well, as did A16Z Andreessen Horowitz. Lots of work to do, but great progress is being made on bipartisan legislation being passed this year. Okay, well, Charles being past this year is maybe assumptive. I don't know. It's like it's being passed this year. Okay, are you. Are you. Are you betting on that?
Jeff
I mean, what's being passed this year? Well, he's saying, no, it's not going to be passed this year.
Chip
Bipartisan legislation being passed this year. It's very assumptive. When's it going to be very exciting yet?
Jeff
Maybe. Except there's. There's no drawing tonight. We're doing auctions. We're doing. The show is the first. So xrp. Boracay. Is that Boracay?
Chip
What?
Jeff
Borrow Boraku Army.
Chip
What am I looking at? I don't know.
Jeff
Oh, we got eight minutes. Let me roll this song because we got eight minutes left. You guys got to get fired up on the first. The first of the first. This is the second of the second because this is the second auction ever run on the history of the show. There's been other auctions on the cafe done one already. This is number two. And this is the second song. I love the timing too. 111 can't get a better number than that.
Chip
So, dude, let's go.
Jeff
Here we go.
Narrator
Endless night deadly in battle silence as terror he strikes. Where mountains break, he walks where fear takes. Hold your spine Shivers your heart falters. Thimblethul the shadow of the storm the chill of the blade his destiny claimed. When the Auction ends at 8:45. Claim him or be forgotten.
Eric Swalwell
On the chain is on the chain.
Chip
Claim or be forgotten. You do not want to be forgotten.
Jeff
No, you definitely don't want to be.
Chip
That would be very bad.
Jeff
Forgotten.
Chip
Can we pass it by November? Yeah, I'd like to say October. Gosh, if it's possible. That'll be nice.
Jeff
X.R.P. there you go. Six minutes. All right.
Chip
Okay. So what else we got going on here, Jeff? So this is interesting. Check this out, Jeff. I thought this was wild. You know we're not. We're coming up on midterms next year this time coming up November like 12, 13 months. But look at this. Elliott said looks like there's a new pro crypto Pro America super PAC bursting onto the scene ahead of the midterm. Separate from Fair Shake which we know Fair Shake was a partisan piece of garbage with over a hundred million. They have 100 million in the bank already brand new 100 million now figure out who's behind it. The Fellowship Pack introducing Fellowship Pack launching with a hundred million plus committed to back pro innovation pro crypto candidates keep America number one in digital assets. Holy cow, that's a lot, Jeff. Independent expenditure felt it represents the next step in industry evolution building unprecedented moments but it's who's behind this. Under Trump's leadership, a regulatory frameworks being established puts America on the path to become the global crypto capital. The Fellowship Pack will exist to carry that momentum forward reinforcing America's composition competitive edge in digital asset innovation and guaranteeing that founders and domestic crypto companies have freedom, clarity and regulatory support. So they're going to do the basic stuff. They're going to support candidates that are committed to transparent predictable rules for digital assets. They're going to protect America's global competitive advantage in technology and entrepreneurship. So it's also going to prevent the continued exodus of talent and entrepreneurs offshore by keeping us the best place to innovate but doesn't give much information. It's like about the Fellowship Pack. The Fellowship Pack is registered as an independent expenditure only committee. Super PAC does not coordinate with candidates and other parties like very hush hush on who's behind this. Okay Mike, we'll give you a pass. We just had our first auction, Mike. You missed it. We auctioned off the song. It went for how many? XRP3XRP3XRP. Now you can follow the next one Mike, you get Next to the next one link is right there.
Jeff
It's right there. Got four minutes left and it's like five xrp. There it is right there. Check it out.
Chip
XRP baby.
Jeff
Look at that. Mo Meta has been safely received.
Chip
Yes.
Jeff
How do you like that? The first auction, the very first song NFT that we put up so you get momentum.
Chip
Scotty with the first. Really appreciate that and thank you.
Jeff
Sweet.
Chip
Thank you for stepping up. That is awesome.
Jeff
Talking about fair shake. So right here, Broward county we have a congresswoman. Her name is Debbie Wasserman Schultz. She corrupted the dnc. I don't know how you can corrupt anymore, but corrupt she was the first corrupted. So Michael Carbonera is taking on Debbie Wasserman Schultz.
Chip
Why does that name sound so familiar? Jeff?
Jeff
So Michael Carbonera has been in the industry. He In 2011 he founded fintech firm Ibanera. In 2020 he founded a genetic Mac mapping firm called Gattaca Genomics. He's a huge supporter of crypto, big backer and you know of Donald Trump loves the idea of the genius act. And here he is talking with technology, especially blockchain. The world economy is changing at rapid levels. Cross border payment is really changing the world because now the economies are so intermingled. There's defi and blockchain which if you look at what the genius bill is doing allows the exporting of the US dollar to consumers around the world at near instant speed. So what's happening is people of the world have access to a stable fiat currency through a stable coin. And there you go. So he's excited about, you know, he's one thing that Congress, I think there's some people there that know what they're doing. There obviously is an architect in the genius bill. What we're going to see is a massive exportation of the US dollar around the world for the next few years. And he's going to take on Debbie Wasserman Schultz. First time probably in history that, that we have someone that might be able to take her on that's coming with a huge sum of money. Has a massive pack behind him already. The packs lots of money up and it, the pack is based down here. He's based down here obviously because well.
Chip
He'S gonna get, he's gonna get that fellowship pack money behind him too.
Jeff
So hopefully gets the.
Chip
I can't find this story but I just read some BS that that's going on with Broward county where they were taking the voter. We know when they pause voter stuff they're not like Active, they're non active. A hundred thousand have been added.
Jeff
120 something.
Chip
120,000. Like this is dangerous because this is what Broward county is known for, activating them and then using what they need to get over. So. And that's where Tallahassee is. Like, well, why are you guys only county that's doing this? Well, because we know it's Broward county that's major fraud. It's Democrat run. A lot of Florida is red, but Miami's, I would say it's purplish. It's starting to become even more red. But Broward county and Palm beach county are just blue.
Jeff
Unfortunately, Supervi, the supervisor of elections here in Broward county has definitely already been corrupted. You know, and so the whole thing is they put them in, you fight, they'll take them out after the election. They never come out before the election. So you have all these people that shouldn't be there. And it was the same thing with the previous supervisor of election. She was so corrupted, you know, and, and the office was, it was a disaster. It was so disorganized over there and, and they did. It's by design. They want it to be disorganized, they want it to be chaotic, you know, and all this stuff. They're huge fans and huge proponents of, guess what? Vote by mail. And so this is, this is what it's all look at. Security, transparency, excellence. And you're going to tell me that this whole thing with the vote by mail and all this nonsense, this is, you know, you even look at the website, the website's kind of a disaster, right? Doesn't it seem like just too much, like everything is just kind of thrown at it like, like the Internet threw up into the website. Here's all the information. This is.
Chip
They want you to never really run again. That's what they want.
Jeff
Exactly. They don't want you to find anything.
Chip
That's what, that's what they're hoping for.
Jeff
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2. And that's it. Second auction in the history.
Chip
In the books, people in the books.
Jeff
That's it. Auction has ended. And whoever put that bit in there, let's see. It's done. That's it.
Chip
Yep. Notification on my phone.
Jeff
History. Look at that.
Chip
Who got that? Who's the one that was responsible for that one? Beautiful.
Jeff
Look at that.
Chip
When a winner. Chicken dinner.
Jeff
Four of these white guys here, three of these blue tribes. Let's see what kind of blue tribes they got over there. See if I can open it. No, it won't let me open. Oh, there we go. Look at that. There you go. Boom.
Chip
Look at that collection. Broward county is Cook County South. Absolutely. 100. That would be me. So you. You grabbed it, man. Beautiful. Nice. Congratulations, Chad. Dang, I missed you guys. You finally showed it. Back on my feet. Thank you, Dodge Charger.
Jeff
Thank you, George Charger.
Chip
We were just saying we don't always get the feed the. The. The notice. It's always weird. So Cash Patel. This guy's. Don't mess with Cash Patel, man. So the Democrats try to mess with him. He just. I thought he was coming out of the chair at one point. Jeff. I thought he's just gonna get out of this chair and jump and hit somebody's neck. But here's him with Eric Swalwell. We'll start with Swalwell first and we'll kind of work our way up. But here he is with Eric Swalwell, who is just not a match.
Cash Patel
Anyone that has been terminated. The FBI has been done.
Eric Swalwell
Another question again to meet the mustard constitutional.
Jeff
I will work on the audio visual capabilities.
Eric Swalwell
I'm gonna borrow your terminology and call on your entire career in Congress. Disgrace to the American people. You can reclaim your time all you want.
Chip
You're going to allow a witness. Mr. Chairman, would you recuse yourself?
Jeff
The gentleman has no time. Mr. Chairman, would you admonish the witness not to insult members? Gentlemen has no time. Mr. Chairman. Committee will remember.
Chip
Point of order.
Dick Blumenthal
Could the gentleman be extended an additional 20 seconds to complete his thoughts?
Cash Patel
Why don't you try serving your constituency.
Eric Swalwell
By focusing on reducing violent crime in this country and the number of pedophiles that are legally harbored in your sanctuary cities in California. I'll work with you on that.
Jeff
Belongs to gentlemen from California.
Chip
Damn. That was crazy. Jeff.
Jeff
Am. This is. This is.
Chip
So here he is. Here's Dick Blumenthal. Here he is with Dick Blumenthal.
Dick Blumenthal
Ask you, has anyone from the White House contacted you about personnel decisions?
Cash Patel
I completely disagree with your entire premise that I have lied or misleading the FBI if I were the results that I announced today by the men and women of the FBI and the historic records we are doing to keep this country safe would not be possible. The men and women of the FBI are responding to our leadership and this administration's priorities. The only way people get terminated at the FBI is if they. They failed to meet the muster of the job and their duties. And that is where I will leave it. And you accusing me of lying is something I don't take lightly. But I'm not going to get into a tit for tat with you.
Dick Blumenthal
Well, let me just ask you to answer my question. Has anyone from the White House contacted you about personnel decisions?
Cash Patel
Generally speaking, we always discuss with the White House OMB during the budget process how many personnel we need, who we need, where Answer is yes for budgetary purposes.
Dick Blumenthal
And realigned fire people, agents because they participated in investigations of the president.
Cash Patel
I don't receive directions to do that.
Dick Blumenthal
Has any.
Cash Patel
I make decisions.
Dick Blumenthal
Has anyone asked you to do it? The best information is yes. You've taken suggestions and direction from the White House in firing qualified agents.
Cash Patel
Any termination at the FBI was a decision that I made based on the evidence that I have as a director of the FBI. And it's my job, and I'm not going to shy away from it. And as you stated, those are allegations. And that is an ongoing litigation. So they'll have their day in court. So will we.
Dick Blumenthal
The allegations are not just in that lawsuit, Director Patel. And I think your testimony confirms that. In fact, you've taken direction from the White House.
Cash Patel
I don't.
Dick Blumenthal
In those firings, it literally does. You've acknowledged that. In fact, they have been in contact with you about personnel decisions.
Cash Patel
The White House has been. Do not put words in my mouth. We're on the record. The White House, like any administration, contacts its agencies on the budgeting process and where these personnel and where the mission priorities are. That always happens. If they didn't do that, they would be abdicating the responsibility to law enforcement. I will always work with my partners in the chain of command at the Department of Justice and the White House to ensure that this FBI is delivering the results we are delivering. To include the lowest murder rate in modern US History. To include the most fentanyl seizures in modern US History. To include the most lives saved and the most children found in modern US History. That is a working FBI. That is not a failing FBI.
Dick Blumenthal
Let's move on to.
Chip
There's. This is real rich coming from a guy who lied about his Vietnam service. Said he forgot. I think you know, if you're in Vietnam or not. I mean, this is. And then finally, here we have Shifty shift this. I saved the best for last, Jeff.
Jeff
Shifty shift.
Chip
This one is on fire. Listen to Cash Patel. Watch this man.
Eric Swalwell
People to believe that.
Jeff
Do you think they're stupid?
Cash Patel
No. I think the American people believe the truth. That I'm not in the weeds on the everyday movements of inmates.
Eric Swalwell
What I am doing is protecting this country, providing historic reform and Combating the weaponization of intelligence by the likes of you. And we have countlessly proven you to be a liar in Russiagate in January 6th. You are the biggest fraud to ever sit in the United States. Disgrace to this institution and an utter coward.
Jeff
I'm not surprised.
Eric Swalwell
I'm not surprised that you continue to lie from your perch and put on a show so you can go raise money for your charade. You are a political buffoon at best.
Jeff
Well, you can take an intro, take.
Eric Swalwell
It to the bank that the FBI is protecting this country. In the state and citizens of California, we are bringing historic reform order. But all you care about is a child sex predator that was prosecuted by a prior administration. And the Obama Justice Department and the Biden Justice Department did squat. And what did President Trump do? Bring new charges courageously. And what have we done? The most transparent FBI Director in History. 33,000 pages of information to you. I challenge you to say anything credibly to the truth. Go ahead and run to the cameras. Where you want to go now.
Chip
Be quiet.
Jeff
He.
Chip
I mean, listen, man, it's. They call him a political buffoon at best. I mean, hold no prisoners. Cash is not messing around. The funny thing is, look, even. Look at Shifty Shift's face at the end of. Oh, yeah, watch the very tale of this. He doesn't know what to do. He was humiliated. Mad. You mad, bro. He's mad, Matt. He's mad, bro. That was crazy.
Jeff
It's destroyed him.
Chip
Chess Patel, like, how is he doing? He's phenomenal, man. He's not taking anything. And then this was like. Look at this one.
Jeff
Oh, yes, Jeff.
Chip
You know what's being happened in the WNBA games? You know how they're throwing those green things out on the.
Jeff
Yeah, yeah.
Chip
On the. Onto the court. Well, look at. Look what happened during this. Look what happened during the. This year. Here's Kim and Cory Booker. Look at this.
Cash Patel
Don't bring in this country. It's my time, not yours.
Chip
My God.
Narrator
My God.
Cash Patel
It is.
Jeff
I follow you on your social media. Did that. That's.
Chip
It's too much.
Cash Patel
You want to work on bringing this country. It's my time, not yours.
Chip
My God. My God.
Cash Patel
It is.
Eric Swalwell
I follow you on your social media.
Chip
That's funny.
Jeff
Oh, my God. That's too funny.
Chip
Who does this stuff, man?
Jeff
Oh, my God.
Chip
Thank God for AI and memes. I mean, man, the memes are just stepped up since AIs jumped into the fold. Just our next level.
Jeff
That's the best.
Chip
I mean, without a doubt, just next level, man.
Jeff
It's exciting. We got something coming up on Saturday.
Chip
Yeah, we do. You want to play it? Let's go. This here. Check this out. Check out our upcoming interview, guys. Here's the promo.

How about that, Jeff? It's catchy, isn't it? So, yeah, we're going to be doing that at 8am it's going to be a great conversation, guys. Prepare some questions. We'll probably put a post up there to kind of take questions too, but you can ask live about Zodao. It's gonna be. It's one of the more exciting projects coming that's gonna basically give you a voice and saying what happens in the xrpl. There's gonna be some other things that are coming down the pike, but it's great. Should be launching pretty soon. I know there's some stress testing going on right now, but it's coming, guys. It's really good. I come on here and now I'm fired up.
Jeff
Beautiful.
Chip
Let's get him. Let's go. About time. You have them on the show. Yeah. Great, man. You got to get them on. So that's going to be a good one, too. And then so we talked a little bit about Trump visiting the UK And I was really impressed with Jeff. Somebody brought this up, but I've never seen this for a U. S. President. But look at this. Look. This is Trump in the. In the carriage. Look at that. Look at all those horses. All the horses. And the king's men couldn't put humpty dumpty back together again. Crazy. Look at this. Look at that entourage. This is crazy, dude.
Jeff
That's. That's.
Chip
If you wouldn't see the goose with the little red. It looks like it's out of some, like, midi, you know, mid evil, sort of a 500. Look at this. I mean, it's insane. There's the carriage that Trump's got made. First class, man. Wait for the battle to break Out. This is awesome.
Jeff
Man, oh, man.
Chip
Fantastic.
Jeff
That's really cool.
Chip
Pageantry, man. This is insane.
Jeff
Look at that. In the carriage.
Chip
Know what kind of ride it is? Must have got bumpy, huh? Sher Castle.
Jeff
Amazing.
Chip
I expect them somebody jump out and say winter's coming, right? Winter is coming. Look at this.
Jeff
Oh, look at that. Oh, my God.
Chip
Have you ever seen this for any US Port president, Joe?
Jeff
No, never.
Chip
I feel that thing. Look at that. It's insane. All those horses. The carriage. Carriage looks vintage too, Jeff. Doesn't look like it's anything very cool. And then something. This is something else they did, which I. I found amazing as well. I was like. It's just. It was such a. It was such pageantry. But look at this right here. Check out this flyover, Jeff. Red, white and blue smoke. What have you seen this for any U.S. president?
Jeff
Never.
Chip
I mean, this is like, you know, the king of the world showing up. This is insane. The amount of pageantry going on. I'm just kind of blown away by the whole thing is insane, man.
Jeff
More monkey business. Said Trump walked in front of the king. He's not supposed to do that. Chad reminds us. He's not our king.
Chip
He is not our king yet. Well, he was able to do it with the queen because she gave him the permission. Look, Trump's not gonna. Not since Reagan. I don't think Reagan got that.
Jeff
No, no.
Chip
But the. The Princess and Prince of Wales put this out. This is a nice collaboration they put together. But this is sort of like a. What happened this morning other they are the meeting. President first lady comes over. There's Kate and William. Prince William next in line to the throne. And there he is, the king. I'm so you step out of line, I'll smack you silly. See that? Kensington Palace. It's a nice. It was a nice little trivia this and it just had on the post. Welcome President Trump and first lady Melania.
Jeff
Nice.
Chip
Pretty nice. But then some other weird stuff happened, Jeff. Not gonna lie. Some weird stuff happened. Look at this here. This was. This was awkward. Look at this.
Jeff
There.
Chip
You see him like so there. He's pushing a baby carriage with the London mayor, City con and Kira Starmer. Like they're twins. Like, you know those twin sort of things. And then they both got a pacifier in the mouth. Pushes them right over the cliff. Watch this. Hello. See you later, suckers. Look at this.
Jeff
Whoa.
Chip
I mean, the parody is getting great. And you know what's interesting? He took a picture with cdcon. Remember I called him like he's a nasty guy. Horrible, horrible mayor. Look at this, Jeff. This was kind of a nice gesture. Well, kind of a nice gesture. Look at, see, look at how nice. Look at how fun they look together. Look at this. See that? There's Big Ben in the background. Got a double decker bus. Oh, it's picturesque scene. But watch what happens. And bam. Right in the face. Punches him right in the face. I can't believe he punched him right in the face. Look at that. Oh, geez.
Jeff
Ouch, ouch.
Chip
That's gonna leave a mark.
Jeff
Gotta choke the mic off.
Chip
That's good. That's good. That's potentially gonna leave a mark of some kind. I don't know. It's a. It's very, very bizarro funny. What are you gonna do? And then finally, what else do we have?
Jeff
Finally. Finally.
Chip
Well, the whole thing with Kimmel, I guess it's not really. Yeah, it's like, you know, people, people felt like he got canceled. He didn't really get canceled. He gets thrown off the thing. It's just all a bunch of. It's a ruse. Nextar is an ABC affiliate. They are taking him off 32 channels. His comments about the death of this Kirk are offensive and sensitive at this critical time. So they're basically removing him from 32 other ABC stations until Disney answers for his despicable attack. So it's not really.
Jeff
They should just take. Just take them down altogether.
Chip
So. And then like, you know, this is gonna. They're gonna try to wait till it blows over. ABC pulls Jimmy Kimmel live off air indefinitely. Over. Charlie Kirk comments. It says it's pulling it off the air indefinitely, which means could be back next week. Controversial comments. Kirk was killed last week at a shooting while speaking at Utah University. The FCC chair Brendan Carr suggested ABC's broadcast license was at risk from Kimmel. Statements about Tyler Robinson, the accused killer of Kirk and the next Star Media Group was seeking FC see approval for $6.2 billion merger with Tegna. Earlier said that the company owned and partnered television stations affiliated with ABC will preempt Jimmy Kimmel live for the foreseeable future. Beginning of tonight's show F around find out. That's what I have to say about that. But you know what I mean. It is free speech. You can say whatever you want, but if you know from your employer. And then Catherine said this. Do you remember Obama's favorite line was like, you better learn to code. Yeah, how to learn how to code. To learn how to code. So Catherine said, learn to code you and insufferable liar. I like that a lot. And let's see, what else.
Jeff
Oh, so you know, else is in there.
Chip
The guy who perfected the on campus tour was none other than Milo Yiannopoulos. Remember in the 2010s, he was, you know, right before 2008, 2009, he did the college campuses. He was the first one to do it. Before Shapiro, before Kirk. He was one of the first. He said because Charlie Kirk got killed, he is unretiring. He retired now, he's going back. If you guys don't know who Milo is, this guy is a little bit crazy. I don't always agree with the stuff he says, but here he is right here.
Jeff
It's good to see him come back out.
Milo Yiannopoulos
Anyway, like any set of ideas, Islam, Islam is like a religion. As any set of ideas, it deserves to be scrutinized. Well, I have scrutinized it and I have found it wanting. I found it lacking. Everywhere there is Islam, you will find women oppressed. Everywhere there is Islam, you will find you're wearing a hijab in the United States of America.
Chip
What is wrong?
Milo Yiannopoulos
You see, they want to shout you down by saying, oh, what about me? I'm not so oppressed. Well, let's take, let's move on from women. If you don't care about female genital mutilation, don't care about forced marriages, don't care about acid thrown in the faces of your Islamic sisters. If you don't care about any of those things, fine, fine, let's talk about gays instead. In 12 Islamic countries, I could be killed for my sexuality. Is that okay? People? 100 million people live in countries where it is illegal to be homosexual. All of those countries are Islamic. This is not an ISIS thing. You know, you will see gays being thrown off the roof in ISIS controlled territories. But this has nothing to do with terrorism. This is mainstream Muslim culture. Your religion does it. Everywhere your religion exists, it is a threat, an existential threat to gay people. Everywhere in the world there is Islam. You will find women oppressed, homosexuals murdered. You will find gang rape. Now, there's a unique phenomenon that doesn't really exist outside of Islamic culture. Cultures of familial gang rape where fathers, brothers and cousins go out raping people together. It happened in Rotherham in the uk and the liberal establishment in the UK didn't investigate this because according to a government report, not a far right wing blog. According to a government report, 1400 young girls were raped in racially or religiously, as you choose to define it motivated crimes because both the police and the authorities were too scared of being called racist to intervene. And this pattern repeats itself everywhere there is mass Muslim immigration. My suggestion to you, America, is that you don't need it here. Learn your lesson from 9 11. Learn your lesson from Orlando.
Chip
Not happy with him. So the weird thing was, this is a long time ago because, you know, remember, he was gay then he became un Gay. Yeah, he's no longer gay. So he went through some kind of transformation. Started going to church. I had another clip I was gonna play. I don't know if I have it here, but anyway, I was gonna play, so. So he's such an agitator, man. It's, like, fun to watch him. If anything. He was at the time. Remember he used to run Breitbart? He was like the editor at Breitbart. But here's Milo. So he goes, here he's putting out the sponsors with his commentary. Sponsors of Jimmy Kimmel Live, Impossible Foods, Gay Credit, Karma, Jewish, Pre Smart, Pet Smart First Poor, Spinsters Chime Paranoid, digiorno Fat Zero Water, who Cares? Dairy Queen Fat and Gay, Delta Faucet Crap Taps, E Trade keeps you poor. Gillette Vial and Breadline coated. That's just the kind of like. That's just who he is. He's a little bit. He's a little bit nuts, man. He's a little bit nuts. But then he put this up. So this guy said. He. I can't even say this, Jeff. He said, you're a gay pedo.
Jeff
Oh, jeez.
Chip
Like, an effort, okay? And of course, he responded. He said, like, well, I'm no longer gay. I was never Jewish. And it's been a half a decade since I last was intimate with a Negro or indeed anyone else. I am inching closer to virtue and piety every day. Are you? And then I saw what he called some other girl in the audience. I was watching some of his videos, and he called her out because he goes, I go to church every Sunday. Do you go to church? She's like, no. He goes, okay. So I don't know. He found religion on Christianity, but he's unretiring. He's going to be on campuses. I saw these other guys. They have a YouTube channel. They were on campuses. They just. They just ratcheted it up, man. They just got. You know, there's never going to be another Charlie Kirk. And Charlie Kirk was, you know, he was very respectful. Respectful. Milo is not. He's the opposite of that. And I used to love watching his Videos because he was. He got people so angry. Jeff, remember?
Jeff
Oh, yeah.
Chip
He used to go off and I mean, well, you and I remember, but man, he's just. He was something. It was a. Something we reckon with. But. But that's all the time we have, man. That's all the time we have. 17 year old colt. There you go. There you go. Milo is not suicidal. No, he's not. But I'm going to enjoy those videos when he goes off there. That was actually, that one there was pretty mild compared to how he. How he generally was compared to so vel. Visual vendetta wants to know, if a man gets a sex change and then gets Alzheimer's and resets his mind, will he still think he's a man or we think he's a woman. Ooh, that's a good point. That's an interesting thought right there. I've never really taken it to that far, but, you know, I. It's a, it's a good, you know, I guess you revert back to what you know. Mark Smithson says liberal globalists have destroyed the world and they will be dealt with. They will. This is the best time. Like, you know, people are like, I got forward for my job, they're crying you free speech. Yeah. Listen, they don't want somebody who's going to dance in someone's grave. I'm sorry, they just, you know, that doesn't say a lot about your character. Most companies have rules and things. You sign stuff that says if you go outside these boundaries and you, you can get fired. You know, I mean, you can do for what you say, but I mean, celebrating someone's death, I mean, no, it's a little bit. It's a little bit much. I mean, people have been killed on the left not to celebrate them. It's a tragedy. Nobody should lose their life over what they think. It's ridiculous to think that, but it just thinks that. Everybody's so desensitized these days, Jeff. You know that's right.
Jeff
Oh, it's too much. Yeah.
Chip
I mean, let's learn. Let's learn math. There you go. So that's all the time we have, Jeff. I guess Rod here, right?
Jeff
I guess so. I guess that's the end.
Chip
Yes, that's it. I guess. We almost got it. We had one hour and one minute. We're so close to getting it. Close. We're so a little bit over.
Jeff
It's all good. We had two auctions. Two of the first.
Chip
Yeah. Thank you guys for participating in the auction and congratulations to the winners tonight. I know Scotty was one. I'm not sure who won the other one, but congratulations, guys.

We have our own questions. But I'm looking forward to you guys bringing your questions to too, and what you can do. Thank you and good night. We haven't played that in a while. Jeff, you have that? Thank you and good night.
Jeff

Cash Patel

Jeff

Podcast: On The Chain
Hosts: Jeff & Chip
Date: September 18, 2025
This vibrant episode of On The Chain dives deep into the evolving infrastructure of digital assets–focusing on Ripple, XRP, and the RLUSD stablecoin. The hosts also shed light on the latest developments in US crypto legislation, highlight global crypto events, and finish with a no-holds-barred look at US and UK politics–including Trump’s unprecedented UK tour and political fireworks in DC. NFT auctions, community banter, and notable guests keep the energy high and the content packed.
“Stable coins for the real economy, for the spendable economy, for liquidity, for global trade, for cross-border payment supporting infrastructure…that’s all about long-term relevance and mainstream adoption.”
— Jeff [08:21]
“Somebody won three xrp. Look at that. You got that bad boy. Kick ass. Auctions are fun!”
— Jeff [22:28]
“Do not put words in my mouth. We're on the record.”
— Cash Patel to Dick Blumenthal [41:41]
“The men and women of the FBI are responding to our leadership and this administration’s priorities…most fentanyl seizures…most children found in modern US History.”
— Cash Patel [42:12]
On RLUSD’s Purpose:
“Enterprise grade, built for cross border payments…fully backed…NYDFS built on that regulatory framework…it is really sound.”
— Chip [08:55]
On NFT Utility:
“If you want real utility, like real world access to see the direction NFTs are going in, it's images, it's video, it's song.”
— Jeff [10:54]
On Bipartisan Progress:
“It’s incredible to see the outreach from lawmakers and to our industry to listen to their practical applications…a commitment to write good laws that will protect consumers, foster innovation…”
— Chip [21:25]
On Mainstreaming Stablecoins:
“Stable coins for the real economy…liquidity, trade, cross border payments supporting infrastructure…long-term relevance, mainstream adoption.”
— Jeff [08:21]
DC Showdown – Cash Patel:
“You are the biggest fraud to ever sit in the United States. Disgrace to this institution and an utter coward.”
— Cash Patel to Adam Schiff [43:14]
The hosts maintain a conversational, sometimes tongue-in-cheek approach, blending deep technical discussion, sharp political critique, humorous banter, and spontaneous community Q&A. They pride themselves on “facts, not hype,” and keep content lively, accessible, and occasionally irreverent—especially when dissecting bureaucracy or mocking crypto “fanboys.”
This episode is a must-listen for anyone passionate about XRP, digital asset infrastructure, real-world crypto adoption, and the intersection of tech, law, and politics on both sides of the Atlantic.
