That's it. That was, that was the end of it. So there you have it. Songbird to follow is the big boys want to experiment. That's it. Got it. You need to have the canary, you got to have the test. You know, so if you have the, the test asset out there and you can put it in real world scenario, you know, it's a huge deal. Real huge deal. Zed, glad we're talking about flare. I want to talk about flair a lot more. We talk about XRP so much. Kind of got, you know, total burnout. You know, talking about the lawsuit for all the years. Now we have to move on. There's a lot of development. We talked the other day kind of about, you know, ripple, what their focal point is with institutions. The significance of institutions, the significances of cross chain. The significance of where the smart contract, the B2B play financial institution and beyond. You know, someone here was mentioning. Oh, here we go. Karma was saying flair might be the one to kick everything off. If not ondo real world asset. Tokenized stocks and ETFs. Token. I think I'm trying to think of it as Citibank or Wells Fargo or one One of the big banks was referencing tokenization as like the next massive thing move that's going to be taking place. And you know, why stablecoin was so significant to everything that was happening. So, you know, tokenization, Stablecoin and, and we kind of moved from there. So. All right, next one. Here we go. Flare. Cross chain interoperability. So let me pull this one up. One second. Pull this over here. Let me get rid of this video somehow. Why won't the video come down? Hang on a second. Okay, there we go. All right, got rid of that. Pull this one over here and let's bring this guy up. All right, here we go. Flare. Flare networks. Flare edges. Flares. Edge lies in cross chain interoperability and trustless real world data 100 spot on. You know, the, the whole point, the whole, you know, key behind what they're doing. If they didn't have cross chain interoperability, what would they be doing? What would the significance of their project be? The whole point of the project is that they're taking the silos and they're saying, look, we don't care what chain you're on, we don't care if you have a smart contract on Ethereum, we don't care if it's, if it's Bitcoin, we don't care if it's Doge, we don't care if it's xrp, we don't care if whatever, you know, comes next in, in the litany of, in the lineup of chains that they can, they could, that they can create a cross chain environment for the trustless world, you know, real world sharing of data or the trust, you know, the, the trustless interconnect, you know, between these different chains for business transaction and business, you can take it, you know, to all, all levels, you know, but that trust mechanism is so key. And, but now imagine if you're working 100% just in the Ethereum, you know, and then you're, you, you know, you're working with another group and yet they're all functioning on Flare. Now all of a sudden there's, there's a break. Now how do you get from point A to point B? Well, you have a company that's focused on cross chain interoperability functionality. That's how the world grows. You can't just have one, you have to, you have to create the cross chain. Otherwise then we're back to a swift environment. Swift, the only one communication portal or language that kind of tied all banks together. Well, we need to get away from that, we need to step away from that siloed, you know, thought process. And this is again 100%. So glad flair shared this. You know, Flare's edge lies in cross chain interoperability hands down, paired with xrpl. Tch. And that's something else that we've talked about. So the fact that Flare can tie in with the xrpl, xrpl by far probably one of the best chains because it was so packed with technology. Plus the fact that you can keep expanding on it based on a vote of the validators. And so the fact that you already had a defi, you already had fx, yet there's so much going on within the xrpl, all the technology that was already baked into it that they, they're able to tap into and use super meaningful. So paired with XRPL tech, that means real solutions with real value. Again, that's what we said right in the beginning, right? Real solutions. So you have a, there's a problem out there, you have a real solution that, solutions providing real value. The reason why it has real value is because there's a real problem. So not just talk building use cases at Harvard with XRPL Commons and Easy A app. So there's. Let's see what this one was all about. Hang on a minute, let's just follow, follow this here. So this was a news article from the other day. XRPL comments Flare and Easy A join forces at the Harvard hackathon to unlock the next generation of D5 and cross chain finance. So all right, well we got to subscribe to be able to get in and view all that good stuff so. Or can we get out of it? Oh, we can get out of it. Oh, look at that. All right, perfect. Hang on a minute. So. XRPL Comment Flare and Easy A announced today a strategic collaboration focused on accelerating the growth of defi and cross chain asset innovation on the XRP ledger, which is huge. The XRPL operating securely at scale for over a decade is recognized as one of the most efficient and liquid blockchains in the world. That's what we just said. So everybody, everybody recognize and identifies it. So what? Low cost, high speed settlement, inherent support for tokenization and rapidly growing ecosystem of defi solution. XRPL remains a foundation for real world blockchain innovation and its recent expansion with an EVM side chain opens further composability and programmability. XRP is now rapidly evolving into a broader financial infrastructure. So you take the xrpl, you pair it with flare, you pair it with all these, you know, with some other functional product and. And now here we go. By connecting XRPO strength with flares, decentralized oracles and interoperability protocols, builders at Harvard will explore such solutions. Everything that we were just talking about tokenized asset, right? And real world asset. This is, this is everything. This is the whole reason, you know, we can get excited about blockchain technology and the direction things are going because it has to eventually be applied to real world asset. We have to move just beyond the moving of money. Moving of money is fun but it's not the end all be all cross chain finance XRP liquidity backing, lending, structured product event driven contracts enhanced through flare proofs composable infrastructure designing D apps to leverage XRPL's liquidity and flares external data to bridge the gap between blockchain and the real world. Man it, I'm, I'm fired up about this. I don't know about you guys but to me, you know, it's just really, really exciting to see, you know, good news, positive news, you know we can look at the geopolitics. People say, oh my God, the world's coming to an end. We could have watched the lawsuit, you know, for the past three plus years. We could have seen the Biden administration and Gary Gensler just, you know, just trying to crush crypto assets and blockchain companies left and right. And we had Elizabeth Warren and Gary Gensler that were doing everything they could to, you know, to try to stop the development. But you know what? The people are too strong. You know, the idea and notion of the technology was already out of the bag and you know, there were some, you know, key leaders in this space, you know, and again, we can't, we can't, you know, mock or step on any of the projects, you know, because every one of them has had an integral part of the direction we've moved in. You know, whether it was dancing bears and riddlers and all of that. You know, we start with bitcoin and think about. Bitcoin had its own intrigue with, you know, who's, who is the real satoshi and the lawsuits and all the things that happen. And then we have bitcoin cash and all the bitcoin spin offs and they're all sorts of things like that. Then you have Litecoin and you have the Ethereum and just like, and obviously there's thousands. We can go so far into death and you have the fun, you know, meme coins. Then you have things like Doge and it got even more Main street attention and traction. And then we get into the Shibinu and you get all, all of this stuff has driven, you know, interest and passion from all segments of society from, you know, from younger kids all the way up through big companies and countries involved in, in, in the holding, investing in and belief that this is the new technology, you know, for the next generation. So it's just, but every aspect, every project has had one, you know, component of development and growth. Even the ones that failed, even you know, the ones that, like an FTX that, you know, stuff like that had to happen because you have to see the goods and the bats. You can see the bads within people. You could see how politicians and you know, and large administrations could, could leverage it and take advantage of it to siphon money. Then you can also go back and kind of track the flow of money. Then you have to look and say, okay, what about, you know, terrorists? What about terrorist states? What about all these what abouts, right? And then you start seeing it and that's the growth of the new the next generation of finance, you have to look at all these different aspects and if you didn't have it, you know, how are you going to live? You know, I mean, that, that's what it's all about. And so now we're looking at, you know, who are the key technologies. Think about, you know, as things progress, you, there are other, other computer, you know, programs. And then you, all of a sudden you have the PC. Think about the IBM mainframe. If you think about where IBM mainframe originally was, their concept was they wanted to put a dummy terminal in people's homes. Like everybody was going to have access to a dummy terminal. And then that went away. That whole notion went away. Then all of a sudden you had Microsoft that they came up with a concept of a personal computer. And then it was Apple, then it was the battle between Apple and Microsoft to see, you know, and then IBM just became a business machine and, you know, nobody was going to have an IBM at home. And then Microsoft said, look, we're just going to develop software. Now there's all of a sudden a business for, you know, computer builders. And all of a sudden now, you know, little by little, all these aspects of, you know, our, our past, which would then be where our future was going. Look at, look where we're at, you know, and you have to have the ups and downs to get to where we're at. And that's where we're beyond that now. You know, it's. Well, we're. There's still going to be a lot of it, but we're so far deep into it. It's amazing to me to think, you know, what we're talking about with the lawsuit and think, you know, people thought that was the end all, be all, but that was just the beginning. The lawsuit was really just establishing precedent that this is, we're on the right course and that we can get above and beyond. Who just said the bears? Bradley was saying the bears are real. We can get above and beyond those that are trying to crush the technology, that we're doing it more from a political perspective or a power hold perspective. It's all about power, power manipulation. They see the direction that we're moving in, that we can start streamlining financial infrastructure, get rid of the fat, get rid of some of the control elements. And if you can take away the manual control elements, which is the personal influence, you know, you remove that. And now all of a sudden look at the direction we're moving in. And so that's the next step. Like, you know, if it's the Fed. But you have to have full transparency and you have to have transparency and you have to have trust. And that's what they taught, like the trust line, you know. And so if you have transparency of transaction, then, you know, point A to point B is transparent. And then from transparency then you have trust. So we can establish trust without, without all the middlemen, without all the fat, without, you know, all the, the things that currently go on which is manipulative or can be manipulated. Let's say, you know, for a purse for other interests. There could be interest providers that are seeking power, right. And power and influence over whatever it might be. And so this is the direct, we're taking that it's in it take a little bit more time and they're gonna fight back. They've been fighting back. That's why there was a lawsuit for three, four years. They tried to crush Ripple because they're fighting back. They tried to destroy Trump because they were fighting back, because they know what that represents. They know the direction the world is moving in. The world loves freedom, the world doesn't like to be. And people at heart, I don't care what country you're in, country to country to country, people are end up being exactly the same. They want to take care of their family, they want to raise, you know, good kids, they want to, you know, do well in business or in their job or whatever. And they want to provide the long term. They don't want to be crushed from a political perspective. They don't want to be caught up in, in endless wars. You know, everybody wants to common. A common way to get along. Business is always the common way to get along. If you can take business, cross borders, simplify it, and get rid of the banking infrastructure that holds you back and some of the other political aspects that can hold you back from a business transaction perspective, you can establish quick trust lines and you can establish a seamless flow of money movement. It's everything, man. It's, it's going to be great, you know, then, then, then we're fired up. I have way too many business transactions in the past and just seeing how things work that just, you can see where all the problems are. And if we can get rid of all of that internal. If it's point A and point B, there's two people, right? Everything at the end of the day comes down to people. But you have to establish trust. Trust comes from the mechanism right now the two parties have to use the system and the system is, is just wrought with, with all sorts of corruptive behavior on the inside, which is why transaction is so delayed and costs so much. Then you know that that's it. So, so we're saying the world does want freedom, but too many are afraid, you're right, too afraid to unite. And then there's power brokers, there's players out there, they're, you know, trying to establish themselves as power brokers from. We see it, right, we see the, the chaos that has ensued, you know, on a global scale. So you know, we have to make sure that we see full transparency. And then if we look in our own backyards, so from our own political establishments holding them accountable, holding them to, to a, if we can imagine, you can put it into an Excel spreadsheet, right? Right. That's basically what it. I want a fully transparent Excel spreadsheet of everything that you do. I want you to, to record everything you do. Well, there you go, there's the blockchain. So voting. I want one person, one vote. I want all the different entities plugged in together. So if you go to the DMV and, or you go, you know, someone dies, it immediately gets recorded into the blockchain. They, their vote immediately, you know, gets removed from, from the voter roll. If you apply for a driver's license in a state, whatever state you came from, you're now removed from that state and now you're in the new state and it should happen instantaneously. Right now there's too many players and too many hands in the game that allow for it to be corrupted and they want. The disorganization is on their side. They want it to be disorganized. They want it to be confusing. Because when it's confusing and disorganized, they, that's where the chaos and corruption and, and cheating goes on. If everything is very transparent, clear and rational and follows a consistent flow all the time, then you can't cheat it. It's hard to cheat the system. They always want chaos. Chaos is, is their friend, you know, and so that's, that's where, that's where it's at. So crypto mountain man is saying common sense thinkers with lots of new wealth is, it is dangerous. It 100 is dangerous. You know, that's, that's where you know, over periods of time you see where, where the regular, you know, everyday person was making huge amounts of wealth. They were doing in real estate, they were doing it in stock with the dot com and too much money was moving to too many people. And then what happens when they burst the bubble, did it happen because of the business cycle that burst the bubble or was there an artificial pin prick that artificially pin prick or brick the bubble? So you think about like in 2000, it was the, the lawsuit when they went after Microsoft. And so they went after Microsoft and they sue Microsoft. That was with Al Gore and Bill Clinton. They go after Microsoft because they were putting their browser on every computer, right. It was loaded up on every. And you know, so that was a big deal. So they come after them. That was the impetus that burst the bubble. That, you know, dot com. Obviously there's a lot of other reasons as to why it eventually collapsed like that, but that was the catalyst. And then in the real estate, you know, market, what did they do? They pointed fingers at all the, at all the real estate brokers and they said was the real estate brokers that were creating these programs that put all these, you know, they were just selling, you know, all sorts of mortgages and it was, it was their fault. But it all tied back to the government. The government had to approve the banks, the banks had to approve the mortgage brokers. Somewhere the money was coming, but at the end of the day, it all came back to the government. They're the ones who had to approve it all. And you think about how, you know, under Al Gore, you know, and even before that, like through Jimmy Carter and then Clinton and Al Gore and you know, know, all the things that they were pushing through in terms of, you know, if a bank wouldn't approve risky mortgages to those who couldn't afford it, they wouldn't allow them to expand their bank branches. And that's the only way a bank grows. So there are all these little things, but you could date it back in time to previous administrations, and then the administrations in between didn't do anything to really change it either. Right. They just kind of made it worse. Either ignored it or they made it worse and then allowed it to be totally corrupted. You know, so it's just like one thing after another like that. So Yusuf is saying they like it or not, the whole world is changing. Exactly. And it's happening so fast, Yusuf, it's, it's so impressive, you know, just to see the speed. It's like at a warp speed right now that AI is developing. I mean, it's just, it's mind boggling. You know, we use AI all the time and I just can't, I just can't. Like, I don't even, I can't even comprehend at this point how, how it's Functional how it works. You know, as we pull all these things together, it just. It's just not comprehensible how it can do the things that it's doing at the speed at which it does it and then remember at the pace it's remembering. I mean, the computer banks are massive, but it's the speed at which it can respond in at any level. You know, have a conversation with chat GPT in any language, translate it, talk to it. You know, you can set it up. You can talk in one language. It'll talk. It'll repeat it back verbally in another language, and then it'll listen for the other person. I mean, it's just like. And it's instant. It's like a second delay. And that just amazing. Amazing to me. All right. Hey, I'm excited to. To roll out this new video that we had put together. So I want to get that going. Oh, you know what? Before I do that. Hang on one second. Let me get the. Whoops. I'm already on stream yard. Hang on a second. Stream yard giveaway tool. I forgot to bring this up. So let me. Let me get this real quick. There it is. Make sure you guys get your yetis in. We're lifting the requirement on the yeti so everybody has a chance to win. I want to make sure that everyone has a chance to win. I don't see many yetis in there yet. Y e T I. Make sure you put the Y E T I in there. Get your yeti in. So want to make sure that we get a whole bunch of people in for the yeti drawing. But let me throw in the video. I think you guys are gonna love this video. I like it. I like the song. Unfortunately, Charles isn't here with us tonight. I put in one segment in there just for Charles, but you guys, you'll know when you hear it. Make sure you guys get your zombie wallet ready as well. But let me. Let me throw in. That's right. I said. So everybody can say yeti. Everybody. But here we go. This is the ode to vinverger. And let me. I'll show you guys the yeti in question. This is the yeti in question. This is vinverger. He is a spirit walker of the clan. Spirit walkers from the blue. From the badass yeti's blue tribe. His name is Vinverger. And this is him here. Obviously, he got. He has a. A battle wound right there. Lost his leg in one of the biggest battles. And this ode to Vinverger is going to talk about His. He's one of the victors of the war between the badass Yeti Blue tribe and the badass Yeti White tribe. So let me bring up the song and. And here we go. We'll come back and talk more flair and all that good stuff. Here we go.
