[0]

[2]
and i think they're going to pick up
[4]
some of that back in 2022
[7]
but outside of those there's three other
[9]
ones that i'm very very bullish on that
[12]
i really believe
[14]
as tremendous
[16]
upside
[17]
uh number one is
[19]
[Music]

[42]

[44]
really respect he's been in crypto for a
[47]
long time george of kryptos rs thank you

[74]
i love it and that's actually one of the
[76]
things i really respect about your
[77]
channel rain or shine bullish or bearish
[80]
you like us you're making videos to
[82]
share in the news and perspective so
[85]
let's jump right in
[87]
what is the state in your mind of crypto
[89]
in 2022 i know you're bullish long term
[92]
this year what are your thoughts
[95]
you know this year unfortunately we're
[96]
starting out a year with some
[98]
uncertainty and i'm talking about
[101]
uh you know fed and what they're going
[104]
to do with interest rates whether or not
[106]
to go hike it
[108]
faster than expected and how many times
[111]
and and all this talk about reducing our
[113]
balance sheet tapering there's a lot of
[115]
economic stuff going on to try to battle
[118]
against inflation right because we know
[120]
inflation is real
[122]
and now the fed is you know trying to do
[125]
something about it and unfortunately
[127]
because of that
[129]
we have market volatility right now the
[132]
traders
[133]
of wall street to me they're being very
[135]
reactive right now and
[138]
and uh they're doing
[140]
things that that is
[142]
is uh is
[145]
is affecting a market in a negative way
[147]
you know the the dow the nasdaq
[150]
especially has been selling off tech has
[151]
been selling off and unfortunately
[153]
bitcoin and crypto
[155]
is now associated with that tech sector
[158]
and there is a lot of correlations
[160]
whenever nasdaq and tax sells off
[162]
bitcoin and crypto also sells off
[164]
but what i think is wrong about that
[167]
thought process is
[169]
bitcoin we know
[170]
yes it's it's a technology you know
[172]
introduced blockchain and and crypto has
[175]
introduced a lot of new innovations but
[177]
they're not like stocks and it's very
[179]
early
[180]
and if you just pay attention to
[183]
what's going on with web 3.0 it's very
[186]
similar
[187]
to web 1.0 when things
[190]
were
[191]
uh
[192]
were just as confusing then i saw
[194]
something recently about how when the
[197]
internet was introduced you know most
[198]
people just didn't get it and you try to
[200]
explain how one day there could be
[203]
billions and billions of dollars of
[204]
e-commerce running
[206]
uh within the internet and what people
[208]
could do with it what how it could
[210]
transform their lives and
[212]
and that's from all aspects from banking
[214]
to buying tickets or to ordering uber
[217]
which
[218]
of course didn't even exist back then
[220]
and of course email and everything else
[223]
people just didn't get it but people
[224]
that did get it well they've prospered
[227]
right and i feel like right now with web
[230]
3.0 that's what's happening
[232]
and
[233]
you know a lot of people just don't get
[234]
it they don't understand what's going on
[238]
but the people that do i think you know
[240]
the people that are in the game and they
[242]
really understand what's coming well
[244]
they're going to prosper just like
[245]
people did back 20 30 years ago
[249]
and just so our audience can get to know
[251]
you a little bit more what is your
[253]
general investors thesis when you take
[256]
out positions in the crypto market
[258]
bullish or bearish doesn't matter i'm
[259]
just looking at the overall thought
[261]
process you go into
[263]
my general thesis is looking at the
[265]
projects that have a lot of traction and
[269]
more importantly
[270]
uh traction within the web 3.0 realm and
[275]
and that's a broad statement i mean like
[276]
what is web 3.0 i see it as just
[279]
decentralization
[281]
of pretty much everything
[283]
that we use today
[285]
and that could be from a banking
[287]
perspective right payments perspective
[290]
um also a lot of things that we take for
[294]
granted you know like a marketplace
[297]
or um or ordering process or a report
[301]
invoice whatever it may be
[304]
right there's a lot of things that can
[306]
be decentralized
[307]
and i'm looking at projects that really
[310]
support these new age web 3.0 projects
[314]
and i'm referring to the l1s the network
[316]
protocols out there and that's my main
[319]
concentration right now my main thesis
[321]
is looking at
[323]
these projects that are really the
[325]
foundation the operating system for
[327]
these new web 3.0 dapps
[330]
and i think they're all going to be
[333]
growing massively in 2022
[335]
and it's important to understand that
[337]
you and me and as well you know were not
[340]
traders i believe were investors meaning
[342]
it's a long-term mindset you know they
[345]
call it huddle for a reason
[347]
so just let's just jump right in to a
[350]
big question that i get a lot and i'm
[353]
never going to give financial advice to
[355]
you know somebody else i just talk about
[357]
my personal uh strategy so for today's
[360]
video this is just about you what you
[361]
are personally doing
[363]
but the question i get is
[365]
you know if you were starting over with
[366]
a clean portfolio how would you invest 1
[369]
000
[370]
in cryptocurrency in 2022
[374]
that's a good question and i i thought
[377]
about it a little bit
[378]
you know before i would always advise
[380]
anyone new
[381]
to follow what i call the 50 25 25 rule
[384]
which is
[385]
50 in bitcoin because i believe bitcoin
[388]
will continue
[390]
growing and it's the hardest asset that
[392]
we have and it's a store value and a
[394]
hedge against inflation so i've always
[397]
advocated 50 of bitcoin and then 25 in
[400]
big caps which is any crypto project
[403]
above 10 billion dollars in market cap
[405]
and then 25 and anything else small cap
[408]
mid cap small cast micro caps right
[411]
but these days i've been looking at
[414]
more of the l1 network protocols
[416]
um
[417]
and you know part of the strategy for 50
[419]
20 by 25 is you're getting the growth
[423]
from the smaller mid caps and the big
[425]
caps but why you want to have such a big
[427]
amount in bitcoin is for that stability
[429]
and growth the growth may be slower but
[432]
you have that stability so when the
[434]
market is not doing so well we're
[437]
consolidating or we have dips and
[439]
corrections bitcoin usually goes down
[442]
the least versus everything else that's
[444]
a big strategy
[446]
that has worked very well over the last
[448]
four years
[449]
except
[451]
except 2021 kind of changed
[454]
because of the growing ecosystem
[456]
especially with d5 decentralized finance
[459]
and and all the people that are staking
[462]
their their coins into d5 projects a lot
[466]
of these l ones held extremely well
[469]
during 2021 even during corrections
[472]
in fact you could argue that they held
[474]
even better at least some of them than
[475]
even bitcoin and they have certainly
[478]
grown faster in 2021 too
[481]
so my 50 25 25 i feel i still think
[484]
that's a really good baseline if people
[487]
just don't really know anything and they
[489]
want to
[490]
build up their portfolio i think that's
[492]
still a good uh allocation for every
[496]
kind of sector but
[498]
these days i think it's okay to decrease
[500]
the bitcoin portion and increase
[503]
the big cap portion
[505]
and that's because of the l ones and
[507]
network protocols the operating systems
[509]
that i've talked about they are growing
[511]
by leaps and bounds they're the
[512]
foundation for web 3.0 and i think it's
[515]
okay to bump that up so it could be
[518]
something like 25 of bitcoin
[521]
50
[522]
in uh big caps and then 25 and
[525]
everything else so kind of the reversal
[527]
of bitcoin and big caps
[529]
so i think that could also serve people
[532]
well and i've been me myself i've been
[536]
trying to get more towards that
[538]
that allocation as well
[540]
and for the audience at home i think you
[542]
also have to ask yourself is what is
[544]
your risk tolerance
[546]
you know if you have a low risk
[547]
tolerance then you're going to want more
[549]
bitcoin and ethereum if you if you you
[551]
know can
[553]
uh
[553]
invest
[555]
you know if you have a high risk
[556]
tolerance then you can go more into
[557]
those mid and low caps it's all about
[558]
the individual
[560]
but george i love that perspective and
[562]
to me what i heard is
[565]
if you have a thousand dollars 250
[568]
25 in bitcoin 500 in the high cap player
[572]
ones and then the other 250 in those mid
[574]
or lower caps
[577]
yes that that is the the break up
[580]
now i didn't go into specifics in terms
[582]
of the big cap i think a lot of people
[584]
will be curious to hear about that but
[586]
the big caps
[587]
there there's plenty of great projects
[590]
you mentioned about ethereum i
[592]
definitely think that everyone should
[593]
hold some ethereum it is the big dog
[596]
when it comes to l1s and smart contracts
[598]
and and d5
[601]
others are eating away at it but
[603]
the the the difference uh between market
[606]
cap and traction is still vast
[609]
but uh in addition to ethereum there's
[611]
many other great place i like finance
[614]
coin i think they're still open to do
[616]
well cardano which many have given up on
[620]
i still think they're going to do great
[622]
things especially in 2022 as they build
[625]
up their default ecosystem
[627]
solana is a great candidate they have
[629]
done tremendously well in 2021 and i
[632]
think they're going to pick up some of
[634]
that back in 2022
[636]
but outside of those there's three other
[639]
ones that i'm very very bullish on that
[641]
i really believe
[643]
as tremendous
[645]
upside
[647]
number one is tara which
[649]
is huge in d5 they are absolutely
[652]
growing by leaps and bounds in d5
[654]
because of their stable coin the terra
[657]
ust
[658]
and it has done very very well so i'm
[661]
very bullish on them and what they have
[663]
in terms of their coin burning and how
[665]
that's associated with the terra ust but
[667]
also avalanche and polygon i'm very
[670]
bullish on both of these i think
[672]
avalanche is growing also by leaps and
[674]
bounds because of their d5 offering and
[677]
they're into nfts and polygon
[680]
because of their their efforts to scale
[683]
they made some big purchases for
[686]
projects that are involved with zk roll
[688]
ups which is a new kind of
[691]
not new but it's a kind of scaling
[693]
technology that the ethereum themselves
[696]
are very interested in and vitalik
[698]
himself has said
[699]
once ethernet 2.0 comes out the next
[702]
concentration will be scaling and
[703]
they're looking specifically at zk roll
[705]
up so i i like polygon from that
[707]
perspective
[708]
and many of the metrics about polygon
[711]
are fantastic they even
[713]
surpass ethereum themselves which is
[716]
quite amazing so
[718]
in terms of big caps there's just a lot
[720]
of good projects out there
[722]
so it's really up to the user or the
[726]
people watching in terms of
[728]
doing some research looking into some of
[730]
these big caps
[731]
and determining which ones they like the
[734]
most but i think overall if you have
[736]
your portfolio about 50
[738]
like that 500 out of 1000 into big caps
[742]
it's going to serve people well
[744]
i love it so polygon terra avalanche and
[747]
the other cardano the ones you mentioned
[750]
those would be the 500
[752]
in the high caps right you got 250 left
[755]
yeah a little bit more fun
[758]
yes uh these days
[760]
i'm a little bit more conservative with
[763]
the remaining amount because previously
[766]
um past years i would look at like the
[768]
micro caps and small caps because i feel
[771]
like they have tremendous growth
[773]
potential
[774]
and i don't think there's anything wrong
[776]
with that but i'm more conservative with
[778]
the smaller and micro caps i'm more into
[782]
a lot of the the mid caps things that
[784]
haven't broken into the 10
[786]
billion mark
[788]
and a lot of them are
[790]
l ones again network protocols because i
[792]
just see so much going on within these
[794]
network protocols
[796]
um
[797]
you know and the growing ecosystem so i
[800]
think they're
[801]
they're going through very well
[802]
so outside the big caps there's a lot of
[805]
l ones that are doing splendid for
[807]
example uh phantom phantom is up and
[810]
coming they're growing their d5
[812]
ecosystem is very vast too and then you
[814]
have guys like uh cosmos v chain
[817]
mechanics someone that i supported for a
[819]
very long time i'm finally glad to see
[821]
that they're taking d5 seriously because
[824]
they've always been a b2b company
[827]
catering to supply chain companies
[829]
because that's what they're really all
[830]
about but finally they realized that
[833]
d5
[834]
is definitely uh a thing so they came
[836]
out their own stablecoin and they're
[839]
growing their their their dexes right
[842]
now so i'm very glad to see that
[845]
um and another one is harmony harmony is
[848]
smaller than these other guys but
[850]
uh they're growing by leaps and bounds
[852]
and right now they have one very popular
[854]
game d5 kingdoms that's really carrying
[856]
them and that game is really just a
[859]
built-in dex
[860]
and uh and they built a game around it
[863]
and that game is exploding and it's go
[865]
let's go um
[867]
they go open up like a new realm on
[869]
avalanche too so i think that's going to
[871]
help not only harmony d5 kingdoms but
[874]
also go help avalanche so in terms of 25
[877]
percent i'm still concentrating a lot on
[879]
the l ones and i just named just a few
[882]
but there's many others that people are
[885]
very
[886]
enthusiastic about and i think you
[888]
really can't go wrong with them but
[890]
outside of l ones there are a lot of
[892]
other plays too like
[894]
you know meta verses people are very
[896]
excited about metaverse is like sandbox
[898]
and decentraland
[900]
right there's a lot of metaverse plays
[902]
out there and just today microsoft
[905]
announced that they're gonna buy
[906]
activision blizzard
[908]
for like 69 billion dollars
[911]
and if you read them between the lines
[913]
the reason for that is because they want
[915]
to beef up
[916]
their metaverse offering so they're
[918]
really trying to prepare for metaverse
[921]
and utilize their workshops right now to
[923]
kind of
[924]
uh broaden their horizons and get the
[926]
technology and get the right people to
[928]
kind of help them with that so
[930]
metaverses are also i think will be a
[932]
big thing for 2022.
[934]
i definitely understand your mindset and
[937]
bullishness on l ones i think kathy wood
[941]
even said and love her hater she has a
[943]
great mind in the institutional mindset
[945]
of what institutions are thinking she
[947]
made the comparison
[949]
in the internet days early internet days
[951]
you couldn't invest in the underlying
[953]
protocols the people that made money
[955]
were what was built on top of those
[956]
protocols today you can and all these
[959]
l1s right now are competing to see
[962]
what's the right amount what's the right
[963]
consensus mechanism what's the right
[966]
um
[967]
uh economics or whatever to to have the
[969]
developers come to them so i echo your
[972]
statement in the bullishness of l ones
[976]
besides
[977]
besides decentraland besides sandbox is
[980]
there a metaverse coin that you're
[982]
looking at you think has merit
[984]
you know what the the one that's come to
[986]
my attention and they're very very early
[989]
is uh pavia which is on top of cardano
[992]
there's a lot of talk about pavia right
[994]
now because they're basically
[997]
trying to become the central land of
[998]
cardano
[1000]
and
[1000]
you know they've said something before
[1002]
that's really interesting that i haven't
[1003]
heard anyone else talk about and that is
[1006]
they bought a piece of land into central
[1007]
land because they plan on building a
[1009]
portal there so that if you have an
[1011]
avatar inside the central lab you can
[1013]
walk through a portal and get your
[1014]
avatar transported into pavia i mean
[1018]
just thinking about that is crazy it's
[1019]
it's brilliant
[1021]
whether or not they could do it i don't
[1022]
know but if they can
[1024]
that would be amazing
[1025]
george such great perspective for the
[1028]
audience at home i encourage you to find
[1030]
the link down below in the video
[1031]
description check george out subscribe
[1034]
to the channel if you don't already and
[1036]
like the video if you got value
[1038]
but george
[1039]
final thoughts for the altcoin daily
[1041]
audience
[1044]
final thoughts um
[1046]
you know it's basically what i've been
[1048]
stressing recently on my channel
[1050]
right now there's volatility like i said
[1052]
i think we're starting out the new year
[1054]
with some uncertainty with the fed and
[1056]
they're they're the upcoming decision
[1058]
and a lot of people are trying to guess
[1060]
what's going on
[1062]
uh or what will be going on
[1064]
but the main thing is what i do is look
[1067]
at the fundamentals and
[1070]
the metrics and pay attention to
[1074]
why this is all happening right now it's
[1076]
because of inflation right there's too
[1078]
much there was too much printing now we
[1081]
have inflation issue and the fed is
[1083]
trying to curb it like they should
[1085]
but what is the one thing that people
[1087]
can buy that hedges against inflation
[1089]
right now
[1090]
i can't think of anything outside of
[1092]
bitcoin
[1093]
gold has not hedged against inflation
[1095]
and in fact you'd argue it's a worse
[1098]
hedge
[1099]
um for the last 10 years because it has
[1102]
not moved in 10 years or 12 years i
[1103]
should say you look at bonds
[1106]
you're getting 1.7 that that's lower
[1109]
than inflation rate so that's not a good
[1111]
hedge you buy the s p or you buy stocks
[1114]
well if everyone's selling off it's not
[1116]
going to be good i guess that hedge
[1117]
against inflation so what else is there
[1119]
right it's bitcoin so i i like to keep
[1123]
people focused on that is right now
[1125]
there's really no better buy than

bitcoin if you're looking to hedge
[1128]
against inflation and these guys are
[1131]
panicking from wall street i think
[1132]
they're going to realize that sooner or
[1133]
later that
[1135]
hey
[1136]
you know once they've sold off what can
[1138]
we buy what can we buy that's actually
[1140]
safe
[1142]
and i think they'll turn back to bitcoin
[1144]
when they realize that
[1146]
i like it great perspective
[1148]
thanks george thank you
