Speaker 1 (00:00):
Could Javan be leading an all coin season in twenty
twenty six. Today, we'll break it down for you. It's
going to be a good one. Let's just jump right in.
I do want to thank our sponsor that is Tangum.
This is where you guys can get into self custy.
If you haven't done self custody yet and your brand
new to crypto, this is one of the things you
want to put on your checklist, especially for your New
Year's resolution. Go over to tangum dot com. It is

(00:21):
a three card set. Get the three card set works
like a credit card, but it works with your phone,
whether it's an Android iPhone doesn't matter. Very easy to
set up as well, and super secure. I'm literally telling
you this does not I don't even think it takes
three minutes to set one of these things up. It
is that simple for you. So don't fear getting into
self custody. Move your tokens off of exchanges. Use our

(00:42):
link down below to help us out on the channel.
Let's go over to a couple of points I want
to hit on. Right here, here's the Prime Minister of
Japan talking about some pretty interesting moves they are going
to support overseas expansion of creators who produce powerful Japanese
contents such as manga, anime and James. Think about that, guys,
They're supporting overseas creators and all of this. This is

(01:05):
a new industry they think is going to be as
big as the semiconductor industry. One of the lifebloods of
what this will be is dedicated around where crypto is
going to be involved in all of this. I want
to go to a clip of her talking about this.
She was at a conference called the Future Investment Initiative.
This is what she had to say. Take a look.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
I have heard that Japanese manka and enemy are very
popular in Saudi Arabia. There are titles like Captain Subasa
on Peace and Demon Slayer. But today I would like
to conclude my speech by borrowing a famous sign from
Attack on Titan.

Speaker 3 (01:41):
Just chat to you a mask and invest everything in me.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
I believe you understand. What I'm asking for Japan is back,
invest in Japan.

Speaker 1 (01:52):
I like that, Just shut your mouth, invest everything in me,
which is kind of the thing that happened. And of
course we saw anime cooing about that time come off
the floor and explode. We saw a little bit of
movement there. But I want to play into this because
this goes into how maybe other things are happening in
crypto in general, and you have to bring in Larry Fink.

(02:12):
Here's a clip of him talking about bitcoin. Take a
look an index from money laundering.

Speaker 4 (02:18):
Those statements was not about crypto. Those statements were specifically
about bitcoin. So let me be clear too, is there
any chance that Warren Buffett is right it'll go to zero?
They're talking specifically about bitcoin.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
They're talking about bitcoin.

Speaker 4 (02:33):
I think we need to get back to what is
a purpose? What is a purpose a bitcoin? Then we
gave the stable coin the thirteen and a half trillion
dollars at Blackrock managed on behalf of our clients. It's
basically managing hope, that's all it is. I mean, why
would anybody invest in a thirty year outcome unless you're
hopeful than thirty years you're going to you have the
compounding effect. Bitcoin is an act of fear. There is

(02:56):
conversations this week that there may be some type of
settled in Ukraine. Bitcoin sell a little bit. If you're
buy it as a hedge against all your hope, you know,
then it has a meaningful impact on a portfolio. The bigger,
the other big problem of bitcoin is it's still heavily
influenced by leverage players.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
That's bitcoin.

Speaker 4 (03:20):
But we could see because we see where the flows
are coming from, all.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
Right, So he says something very interesting there, and that
is where the flows are coming from. If you look
at the ETF tracker, this of course is ethereum ETFs,
and you can kind of see what we're looking at
both on ETFs, all ETFs. Here's the ethereum ETF right
here starting to move. There's all ETFs, and there's the

(03:44):
flip that we're talking about. And I think this is
what Fink is starting to look at, is he's seeing
these transactions flow out there. And listen, it's not just there.
Black Rock also into digital liquidity, also understands where these
funds are coming from. There's ethereum pretty much controlling most
of this. This is the kind of thing that of
course starts to move markets in pretty significant ways, especially

(04:07):
when Larry Fink speaks. Now, remember when you think about
stable coins and all this tie to Japan. I want
to go back to something here because this was Startel group.
Remember we just talked about this the other day on
the show, this is a new Sonium based built blockchain
that has a stable coin now available. Well, you take
a look at what's happening in Japan and you think,

(04:28):
all right, well, this is a great partnership there with
M zero. Guess who comes in right behind and does
a partnership with M zero Biddle and Biddle of course
tied to Blackrock again as an eligible collateral for stable
coins built on the MO platform. This is another factor
that starts to play into this whole theory. This is

(04:48):
getting much more global and when you think about global,
We've done a couple of these videos in the past.
Here's Warren Buffett. This is where he chooses Avalanche for
the Japanese markets. There's reasons for that. I want to
play a clip for you that kind of breaks this down.
Take a look.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
So I started buying all five the five largest trading companies.
We now own seven point four percent of each of
the companies will be in these stocks. Done twenty years,
we have had revelations about each of the companies. I mean,
they can call us at any time, all right.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
So that was Warren Buffett from an old old clip
that we played on our channel, okay, and I want
to panel through some things because this is the theme
that these are the just so we can go to
this clip right here right there. All right, So these
are the Japanese trading houses that he's investing in, and
he's just said, hey, we're investing in long term. What
did Warren Buffett know about these companies? Well, let me

(05:47):
kind of go through them quickly. Right here, we were
Beanie investing in digital blockchain startups. Then you go over
to I Touch you also announcing a blockchain for traceability.
Then you get into what's happening right here, Mitsubishi also
getting in on Avalanche. Then you go over to Sumuitomo,

(06:08):
this is the financial group that he's talking about also
getting in as guess what stable coin on Avalanche. All
of these are starting to integrate into blockchain technologies. And
Buffett basically put the list out there months and months ago,
and now all of a sudden you have this movement
within Japan all happening right now, not to speak of

(06:30):
what's happening with JPYC. This of course, is where Avalanche
is starting to move and take over a little bit
of Polygon Steam in terms of number of transactions you
can kind of see the volume starting to shift a
little bit. Point being is JPYC, this is the Japanese
stable coin is starting to indicate a lot of movement.
And when you look at the strategy of what their
Japanese Prime minister is doing around the ecosystem of blockchain

(06:53):
and building it as an industry, this is a very
important analysis to look at. I want to go to
this one right now here. This of course was talking
about Globe with this Yatsu talking about this, remember President
CEO of Anamoka, and he says, let's launch a dedicated
fund to support the growth of Japanese culture industries such
as magna, anime and film. I'm telling you it's like

(07:15):
they are talking to each other. They have to be
to be able to just reprint exactly what the Prime
minister is talking about from Japan, which is exactly that
support these industries. Let me go to a clip because
this is Yatsu breaking it down. He was right again.

Speaker 5 (07:31):
When Sony actually first launched NAUM, it was actually a
largely muted release. Even within the US sort of web
three circles. They were like not really paying attention to it. It
was kind of interesting, but I think still to this
date would probably be the largest enterprise in the world
that actually has launched a blockchain, starting their own blockchain
as an EAT layer two. Yes, it's kind of wild,

(07:51):
and of course for us, the interests is working with them,
not just adding value to the blockchain, but also leveraging
the network that is sony places like Japan. For instance,
One thing I've been sent tening people ages ago that
Japan is actually one of maybe the only country in
the world that already has a token listing framework. So
the tokens that are they're listed for instance like san
or ape coin for instance, they're completely legit. It's the

(08:14):
only country in the world, at least in the past
that had that.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
All right, So tons of tokens getting ready to ignite
in Japan. This is probably going to be a situation
where they might lead out an all coin season. And
there's a reason for this, and that is everything from liquidity,
the market structure side, and the tax side. Okay, they've
got all of these things coming together at one time,

(08:37):
Versus here in the US we haven't got through taxes yet.
We just got a stable coin build through. We don't
have market structure in play, and Scott Bessen is recognizing
all of this and he had something to say. And
this is another older clip. These guys are saying this
stuff out loud. If you just pay attention, watch this one.

Speaker 3 (08:56):
In a way, the most dangerous thing is a Japanese
company with a lot of cash, because they'll do something
crazy with it.

Speaker 1 (09:02):
They're going to do something crazy.

Speaker 4 (09:04):
It's a bit more of a dipping your toes into
the web three tech.

Speaker 3 (09:07):
Yeah, because we've been hearing executives talk about a super
game coming sometime in twenty twenty six. Is that correct?
Could be? Could be?

Speaker 6 (09:18):
Yeah, yes, yes, sometimes around that area, I would say.

Speaker 1 (09:21):
And that will incorporate all of your ips from your catalog.

Speaker 6 (09:25):
Well, we are not you know, we are not qualifying,
but we are not you know, denying the potential.

Speaker 1 (09:32):
We're not verifying, but we're not denying.

Speaker 6 (09:35):
So so I guess is the one to always challenge
the knock. We're trying to be wild. It's higher risk
by potentially higher return, you know. And I think I
want to say this is going to be my greatest
achievement in my carreer. Greatest achievement is still to come.

Speaker 1 (09:57):
All right, So as you can see there this a
very very different picture for where the innovation could come from.
A lot of this could be birth in Japan, and
it's going to come through culture. This is something Sue
talks about a lot. Culture is going to be the
major driver of crypto, and even Scott Besson mentioned that
a Japanese company with a ton of money, Now you've

(10:19):
got a stable coin, Now you've got an infrastructure, now
you've got tax incentives that are playing into this. Uh,
Scott Beston the better be paying attention right here, guys.
This could be one of the key things that leads
us out into twenty twenty six, and you guys don't
want to miss it because we're going to be covering
all of that and so much more. If you're not

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
