[0]
welcome to bitboy crypto home of the bid
[2]
squad the largest and greatest crypto
[4]
community and all the interwebs my name
[6]
is ben everyday on this channel i show
[8]
you how to make money in crypto if you
[9]
like money and crypto make sure to hit
[12]
that subscribe button coming to you from
[14]
in front of the palazzo getting ready to
[16]
leave las vegas today uh if you didn't
[18]
hear or you didn't see if you didn't
[20]
watch i did bust out of the world series
[23]
main event the world series of poker
[25]
main event last night i took down 131st
[28]
place for a 51 000 which was good but
[31]
it's definitely really brutal to go out
[33]
the way that i did uh if you watch the
[35]
hand i was all in i lost a lot of chips
[38]
because i made what some people probably
[39]
say is a bad call but
[41]
this guy he had been bluffing all night
[43]
with what you guys didn't see at the
[44]
table earlier um but i had pocket aces
[47]
and i went all in i got called by jacks
[50]
and 2 3 off suit and um
[53]
guy hit a jack on the turn i got knocked
[54]
out of the tournament it's very sad but
[56]
i was heavily favored to win the hand i
[57]
was very proud and uh like i told you
[59]
guys this week we're gonna give away an
[60]
ethereum um we're gonna appreciate all
[62]
your support especially we saw you guys
[64]
the bid squad in poker go app uh it was
[67]
a lot of fun definitely had a blast but
[69]
i am ready to get back to the studio get
[71]
back to the grind this week i will be
[73]
live streaming in studio starting
[75]
tomorrow morning unless my flight gets
[76]
canceled or something sorry guys let's
[78]
talk about bitcoin
[80]
uh bitcoin right now is struggling 63
[82]
700
[83]
now ethereum also struggling right at 4
[85]
500.
[87]
obviously ethereum is struggling because
[88]
bitcoin is struggling and ethereum and
[90]
bitcoin have had this relationship for a
[92]
long time that's like
[94]
you know when bitcoin moves ethereum is
[96]
affected when ethereum moves it rarely
[99]
will drag bitcoin along for the ride but
[101]
we have seen that happen too a small
[103]
handful of times but here's what you
[105]
need to know
[106]
this could be the most pivotal week for
[109]
bitcoin ever for two reasons number one
[113]
bitcoin has got to bounce back this week
[115]
we need this week to be a very positive
[118]
week for bitcoin we need to inch back up
[120]
closer to all-time highs we need to get
[122]
to 70 000
[124]
very quickly if we're gonna see this
[126]
thing hit 100k by the end of the year
[128]
and some people are throwing out uh you
[130]
know 200k by the end of the year you'll
[133]
check out one of pop's thumbnails
[135]
no shade no shade just saying um but you
[138]
know that's what they're saying you know
[139]
bitcoin you go that high you guys know
[140]
where i stand i believe a hundred
[141]
thousand dollars by the end of this year
[143]
um you know i think by the middle of
[145]
december but this week is pivotal
[147]
towards getting us to that goal so
[149]
that's number one just from a price
[150]
perspective we're gonna see bitcoin
[152]
really take off and go where it needs to
[154]
go
[155]
this is another one of those weeks we
[156]
need a green week this week i mean
[158]
there's really no question about it but
[159]
number two we have something that's
[160]
going to change bitcoin forever that is
[162]
happening
[163]
right now as we speak it is the tap root
[167]
upgrade now the last upgrade the bitcoin
[169]
had i believe was a 2017 maybe 2018 if i
[172]
remember correctly i think it was 2017
[174]
though
[175]
um segregated witness or segwit uh a way
[179]
of sending transactions uh so bitcoin
[182]
you have to understand one of the things
[184]
that makes it
[185]
the
[186]
the best coin i guess a good way just a
[188]
cheesy way to say it
[190]
what makes it number one it's not what
[192]
bitcoin can do
[194]
it's how bitcoin is set up okay so
[197]
there's no other network in crypto
[200]
there's no other coin in crypto
[202]
where that has a bigger and more secure
[206]
network okay that's what gives bitcoin
[208]
its power
[210]
is the size of its network and so um
[212]
when you're looking at
[214]
you know
[215]
some of the problems bitcoin has like
[217]
with speed
[218]
you know that's something's gonna have
[220]
to be addressed down the road but all
[221]
bitcoin's other issues
[224]
are going to be i don't want to say
[226]
solved but helped by this big upgrade
[228]
that's going on right now the taproot
[230]
upgrade this is going to this is going
[232]
to enhance
[233]
already the most secure crypto in the
[234]
world but it's going to enhance the
[236]
security it's going to enhance the
[238]
scalability which could affect the speed
[240]
a little bit and it was also going to um
[243]
affect the uh let's say scalability uh
[246]
security and privacy so they're
[248]
implementing order called snore
[250]
signatures now don't sleep on me here
[251]
don't go to sleep on me here um but the
[254]
shore signatures and and these are going
[255]
to be a way to make the transactions
[257]
more linear and allow where people can
[259]
send private you know transactions on
[262]
bitcoin or at least add more privacy so
[264]
these are good things that are going to
[265]
change bitcoin but one of the big
[266]
integrations here is they're gonna be
[268]
making it much easier for
[271]
people to integrate smart contracts with
[273]
bitcoin and like i was alluding to
[275]
earlier bitcoin and ethereum have this
[277]
relationship
[278]
but it's really one-sided because
[280]
ethereum does all the work uh bitcoin
[283]
just makes the price of ethereum go up
[284]
but ethereum is actually innovating
[287]
to the level that the bitcoin maxis know
[290]
they have to do something so what they
[292]
want to do is build smart contracts on
[294]
bitcoin and we know that we already have
[296]
block stacks or stacks the stacks token
[298]
that is already integrating uh some of
[301]
that and uh making it a little bit
[302]
easier to do smart contracts these are
[304]
gonna allow people to bring maybe nfts
[306]
divided bitcoin for the bitcoin maxis
[309]
one now i would tell you that ethereum
[311]
and some of these other projects are way
[313]
too far ahead for bitcoin to catch
[316]
but the fact is this is a big upgrade
[318]
and i was told that you know i didn't
[321]
believe there would really be any price
[323]
activity related to this but there could
[325]
be we could see a very positive momentum
[327]
swing for bitcoin and and you know this
[330]
could be a last-ditch effort to kind of
[333]
stave off
[334]
coins from catching bitcoin
[336]
down the road so this week absolutely
[340]
monstrous for bitcoin it's going to
[341]
change bitcoin forever we're having a
[343]
major upgrade part of the reason why
[345]
these upgrades take so long where the
[347]
last one we had was maybe it was early
[349]
2018 but long short it was about three
[351]
years ago
[353]
is that
[354]
they take a long time to implement
[355]
because the network is so large
[358]
and it is so secure
[360]
they don't want to change things at a
[361]
whim and i actually think that is one of
[362]
bitcoin's biggest strengths
[364]
that you can't just make changes to it
[366]
quickly i mean if you look at the
[367]
eip1559
[369]
uh and all the eips we've had throughout
[371]
the years for ethereum i mean we've had
[373]
many of those they come quick they come
[375]
fast they come hard and heavy
[377]
bitcoin's not like that it doesn't have
[379]
multiple updates a year it really has a
[382]
major update every few years and i think
[384]
there is some strength to that i think
[386]
that's what makes it
[387]
better version of digital gold
[390]
as opposed to a project where people
[391]
will be building smart contracts and
[392]
doing like a lot of different things
[394]
with down the road like that stuff can't
[396]
happen but a lot of these other projects
[398]
are too far ahead
[399]
when it comes to investing in something
[400]
as a hedgeable asset you want something
[403]
that is safe and secure
[405]
and nothing is more safe and secure
[408]
than bitcoin so um i think these slow
[412]
upgrades i mean this is the way i think
[413]
satoshi would have wanted it that you
[415]
don't change it on a whim uh last but
[418]
not least just want to briefly touch on
[419]
all coins for a moment like what do we
[421]
expect to see from all coins we have
[422]
somewhat coins that have been managing
[424]
to pump uh no matter what the market is
[426]
doing kadena
[428]
um uh helium
[430]
uh
[431]
not actually infinity was the other one
[433]
i'm thinking of has been having a
[434]
monstrous week loopering uh these are
[436]
some projects that are having monstrous
[438]
weeks and they're going up while
[439]
everything else is going down
[441]
uh does this bode well for them when
[443]
prices do go back up absolutely so you
[445]
guys watch kadena it is probably going
[447]
to be a top 25 project or at least close
[449]
to it in the next few months so it's got
[451]
to have several more runs coming um with
[454]
all coins right now with bitcoin and
[456]
ethereum being down
[458]
they're not going to really move other
[459]
than a few outliers like we just talked
[461]
about so you're really going to want to
[463]
watch for uh you know bitcoin movement
[465]
before we can really feel good about all
[467]
coins uh rising back many all coins are
[470]
down quite a few percentage points but
[472]
hopefully that will change in the very
[474]
near future but
[476]
let me know what you guys think how do
[477]
you want me to give away the ethereum
[479]
let me know drop those comments down
[480]
below that's all i've got be blessed
[482]
can't wait to be back in studio tomorrow
