7:19 FTX and Sam Bankman-Fried, his parents, friends and advisors left a permanent scar in this industry.
I hope SBF rots in prison. I hope that all people associated with SBF lose everything they have either now or at some point in what remains of their lives.
They inflicted unimaginable pain to hundreds of thousands of people.
Bankman-Fried and Madoff, the biggest individual frauds/criminals of our lifetime. Madoff has met ultimate justice for what he did, Sam Bankman-Fried perhaps has not.
The Crypto market is pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are a lot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look
Please someone should help here… I lost $8,400 on live trade, I thought live trade is the same as demo trade because I was winning with my demo account. Please this is quite annoying and disappointing, what should I do please?
In uncertain times, how can one outperform with the S&P 500? my money goal of $3m seems far-fetched and just saving is not an option, do I seek a license advisor to help grow my funds, or wait for a favorable economy? I have barely 5 years to retirement.
I will be forever grateful to you, you changed my entire life and I will continue to preach on your behalf for the whole world to hear you saved me from huge financial debt with just a small investment, thanks so much Elizabeth Wesley.
Just make sure you ignore the ShitCoins. Yes, ETH is a shitcoin
Bitcoin only
The definition of a recession was changed because then economists would have to tag Biden with a recession in 2022. The definition has been politicized.
Bitcoin only if you don't understand I don't have time to explain.
Dan is unfortunately insecure and needs to talk about himself. A pity cause he's got good knowledge.
DYOR this Crypto i hope i can help

I lost over $80k when everything started to tank. Not because I was in an exchange that went belly up. I was just stupid to hold and because that's what everyone said. I'm still responsible. It just taught me to be a better investor now that I understand more of what could go wrong. It took me over two years of being in the market, I'm really grateful I found one source to recover my money, at least $10k profits weekly. Thanks Michelle Stewart
Thank you for your wonderful videos. I always watch your videos, I love how open minded you are about investing, I read an article of investors that made fortune within two months, so please I'd really love more tips and clues on how to outperform the market and make such gains.
Dan has a lot of Knowledge! Thank you! Excellent show!
As an early crypto investor it's gone from amusing and HILARIOUS to absolutely depressing and CRINGE watching the news agencies scramble to turn their traditional "experts" into crypto talking heads. The fact they're just NOW talking about Bitcoin shows just how FAR BEHIND they are! You are a FOOL if you think the spot ETFs are the greatest thing in crypto. Wait until Elon unleashes DOGECOIN on the "X" Platform as an INTERNATIONAL CURRENCY! The INFLOWS from that will be MASSIVE and make those spot ETFs look like a nickel slot machine at a roadside casino. We're talking INFINITE ALPHA here folks! 20 years on the street and i've NEVER seen ANYTHING like it, and neither have YOU! I realize this INFURIATES a lot of people but did you REALLY think you're smarter than Elon Musk??? FATE LOVES IRONY!
Man, Dan says it like no other!
I don't think this guy understands what he's talking about. True you don't want to spend your Bitcoin now because it's in a aggressive growth phase. But eventually in the next 10 years or so it will greatly level off. Why would he put money into shit coins when they do nothing? Terrible terrible idea and I don't think this guy understands. This might have been an interesting conversation 5 years ago.
whats up with your plant?
How old were you when you realized DT is gross, not yet as gross as Raoul
Water your poor plant!
what a dumb take …not everything needs to be on a public blockchain with a shitcoin attached to it. it is costly, slow and pointless as nothing from the outside world cannot be enforced on a blockchain … the only valuable use case of a public blockchain is money. in order to be money we need Proof of Work which connects the energy from the outside world with real atoms to our digital realm. is really not that difficult, why you all play this dumb game?
I read that Nvidia provides tech for crypto mining services/blockchain transactions. Could the current crypto pump be attributed to Nvidia’s great earnings and should I hold some crypto as well, cos tbh I’m having FOMO with the current crypto price at 69k.
The plant, behind you is dying😔
the plant is dying
It seems everyone is still relying too heavily on the charts now. Imho, when the ETF's stepped into Crypto it changed the game. The Bitcoin Baby has been born and will grow up fast. The Crypto Market now has a rubber stamp of approval. Wall Street is in the game now and It will become the store of value we have been talking about. The rules are already changing. We would have normally had a corrective retrace by now, yet Bitcoin has been steadily rising. The name of the game is getting out with profit, but when exactly to get out this Super Cycle is going to be a tricky one. It's not about guessing the market's next move; it's about playing it smart and steady…managed to grow a nest egg of around 3.4Bitcoin to a decent 14Bitcoin in the space of a few months… I'm especially grateful to Pennie Thorne, whose deep expertise and traditional trading acumen have been invaluable in this challenging, ever-evolving financial landscape..
Shitcoiner. Block
Isn’t funny how I never learn the nuance of trading signals until after the move happens?
put some water to your flowers… let it grow like your assets
From my observation and historical market pattern, there might be a bit of turbulence in the market coming up, but here's the deal: Trying to guess what's going to happen next is less important than spreading your bets when trading and thinking long term. It's not about guessing the market's next move; it's about playing it smart and steady…managed to grow a nest egg of around 100k to a decent 732k in the space of a few months… I'm especially grateful to Christopher Alexander Walter, whose deep expertise and traditional trading acumen have been invaluable in this challenging, ever-evolving financial landscape….
17:50 Brazil launched its first crypo ETFs in 2021. We are miles ahead of the US in these regards. We've had DEFI/WEB3 ETFs for almost 3 years now. Granted, they're never gonna be as liquid as the american ETFs, but they have been a useful tool to onboard a bunch of people who are afraid of buying and holding spot crypto. Besides that, we already have a CBDC layered on top of a smart contract platform ready to launch (will be useful to seamlessly trade and transfer all kinds of properties [stocks, gov. bonds, real estate] as well as wrap them on smart contracts to ensure trustless execution between parties) and we have world's largest (maybe second largest because India's might be bigger) real time fiat money payment/transfer system between people, banks and institutions (PIX). It's such a huge success here that it is starting to get adoption abroad too. You can even use it to pay for stuff in Argentina and some places in France. Tether's CEO recently mentioned it in a Bankless interview. But yea, Blackrock's ETF was recently listed on our stock exchange too. Crypto adoption in Brazil is so crazy that there are more people who hold crypto here than people who hold stocks (10~ million crypto holders vs 5 million stock holders). That's how warped reality is in emerging markets. We had 'only' 4% inflation last year, which makes me think crypto is already beyond only store of value story.
