0:00 According to a number of different experts, the market right now is a ticking time bomb and XRP is getting ready for a massive explosion. According to certain people like Lawrence Leopard, Bitcoin is getting ready to go up to $140,000 per coin in the very near term. And if this happens, we all know what's going to go on with XRP based off of previous examples like in November where it went up more than 5x. So, with that being said, we're going to be diving into this, what we need to be looking out for, in Lawrence Leopard's own words, the trade war, the bond market collapse, and so much more. Please make sure you listen very closely, cuz this is honestly going to be an absolute blast of a video. Uh, you say you're
0:47 very comfortable with Bitcoin will hit 140 by the end of the year. How can you say that when we have trade wars, uncertainty? Seems like it's never been this uncertain. Yeah. Well, I think the trade wars actually kind of feed into all of this. I think all of the economic problems that are bubbling up all over the place, including the Japan bond market, which appears to be kind of in in a state of falling apart. I think all of these feed Bitcoin. Um, you know, the Bitcoin used to be it used to be the price used to be correlated with the S&P or with I'm I'm sorry, with the triple Q's and the NASDAQ cuz it was kind of viewed as a risk on asset. I think we're in the process of seeing that change. I think it's now starting to trade more like digital gold. And you know what's going on is these two assets are really beginning to realize that the government
1:32 is in a trap that they just cannot stop printing money to keep the system running. And once that becomes widely known and understood, you know, we'll have kind of what I call and describe in the book as a mass scale Gresham's law-like event where people want to get out of other assets, particularly bonds that are denominated in a fiat currency, and get into the two currencies that the government can't print, which are gold and Bitcoin. And I obviously I prefer Bitcoin to gold because it's got an adoption cycle and it's got so many advantages over gold. But I don't on gold. Gold is gold's got merit. It got us all the way to 2008 and it's not going to disappear overnight. Uh it'll still do a job of protecting some of your purchasing power, but Bitcoin is a much better choice. For the folks at home, what is Gresham's law? Oh, sure.
2:20 So, Gresham's law, Sir Thomas Gresham was a guy who was an adviser to Queen Elizabeth back in the 1500s. And uh what he said is, and so the issue of monetary debasement, this isn't new, right? This been around for thousands of years. People have cheated on the money. you know the the Romans clipped coins and sovereigns clipped coins and everybody you know the the daenerius which is the Roman form of coin was started off all silver by the end it was all iron um and Gresham's law says that people can figure out when the money is going bad i.e If if that kind of debasement is taking place, the average human being will look at the money that they know is losing value. In other words, where prices are going up in that money and and say and and then they'll look at another form of money maybe that's not losing value. Let's say an ounce of gold and the price of something in an ounce
3:05 of gold won't be moving at all. And they'll say, "Huh, I get it. This this one form of money is losing value. This other form of money is holding value. I'm going to spend the one that's losing value because why wait around for it to lose more value? and I'm going to hold on to the one that holds its value, which is gold. And so the law itself is written down as good money drives or bad money drives out good. And what that means is that if the money is going if one form and there are always couple forms of money going around in any economy, if one form of money is going bad, i.e. being debased, that that will form that will cause people to hoard the good money and spend the bad money. So and and at at the extreme like in Weimar Germany in 1921 through 23 they
3:50 literally you know throw out you know the bad money and you use wheelbarrows to with which you know cuz the printing presses were running so hot to purchase things and they hang on to the good money which in that time was gold or the the the dollar or the or the British pound. What are one or two of the most important macro indicators to look at now? And I'm not talking about money printing. I'm talking about macro indicators that would lead to that. Yeah. So, it's a great question. I think probably the most important macro indicator, well, there there four or five of them, but the price of gold, notice it's hitting all-time record highs. A lot of people think, oh, it's just a bubble. It's going to come back down. No, it's not. It's going to go to 4,000, 5,000, ultimately 10,000 plus. The price of Bitcoin, same story. A few years ago was 15,000. Now, it's at 109.
4:37 I think it's going to 200, 400, 600 over time. um the bond market, the long bond market, which tells you how much people trust that government bonds will hold their purchasing power. And what you're seeing there is in in Japan, the 40-year bond is hitting record levels. Uh in the United States, uh the 20-year bond just crossed the 5% mark, which is a big deal. Um and then probably finally, I would say, you know, the stock market. The stock market is a little bit trickier to figure out, but um you know it it gives you a sense of how much liquidity is slloshing around in the system. And what I think is going to happen here is I think ultimately the stock market's going to start to go down. Uh the US bond market is already in the process of going down. Rates are going to go higher. And the government, you know, the government really, the US
5:23 government really cannot handle higher interest rates. I mean, we are currently spending about $1.2 trillion a year on interest in the US. It's bigger than the defense budget. uh it's approaching the social security budget and if interest rates keep going up, the government's going to, you know, go bankrupt. I mean, they already are bankrupt, but it's going to be worse and obvious. And so, what I think will happen is the government will be forced into what I call yield curve control, which is another round of quantitative easing, which is really just complicated words for saying they're going to hit the the button on the computer that says print more money. And that's fine. It'll keep the system going. But that's what they did in the CO example when they grew money supply 40% in 2 years. And that's why everybody when, you know, I don't know about you, but when I go to the grocery store, I get horrified. I mean, you know, the cost of groceries is just
6:08 insane. I mean, it's it went up so much in the last 3 4 years. It's been horrible. And so, you know, and so I think we've got more of that in our future sadly. So, as that happens, and like you said, Bitcoin's at all-time high, stock market at all-time high, housing market near highs, everything. Is this an everything bubble? And do we need to see a crash before Bitcoin can rise from the ashes? That's a great question and I don't know the answer. I mean yes it's an everything bubble. So the reason it's a bubble and the reason we got to this point and it's useful to discuss this is that they kept interest rates at zero from 2008 to 2015. Remember they had zer which stands for zero interest rate policy. They also kept them at zero from 2019 to 2022 and that created an enormous enormous bubble because money was free and so people borrowed and then they
6:54 used it to lever up and buy yielding assets. Okay. Um, so the question of do we need it to burst for Bitcoin to go to new highs, it's unclear. I mean, the the, you know, if the Fed just pivots and starts printing money, no. But what I see is that we've got a Fed chairman who wants to be Paul Vocler who's determined to correct the excesses of the COVID print. And so, he's being very tough about not dropping rates quickly. And, uh, my sense is that what that's going to lead to is that something's going to break. I mean, we know the third Fed mandate is if something breaks, they will print money. We saw it in08, we saw it in CO. And so, what I believe will happen is, you know, the stock market or the bond market, one or the other, or perhaps even both, will
7:40 quote unquote break. And at that point in time, the Fed will suddenly pivot and say, well, you know, we're trying to fight inflation, but we can't let the system fall apart. And therefore, we need to reinstitute quantitative easing. we need to, you know, use yield curve control to cap this the interest rates on the bond market and we stand ready to buy whatever bonds are being sold by the market. I think that's what we have in our future. Now, what's really tough is it's just we don't know when that's going to happen. It could happen tomorrow. I mean, I can't see it happening taking more than 2 years, but I you know, I give it it could happen. It could they could drag this out for a while. It could be 18 months or so before it happens. But I think what we do know because of the math is that it has to happen because without more money in the system, you don't have the, you know, the the the capital to pay the interest on the growing bond balances.
8:27 So it's it's really kind of a problem. Now, I just want to point out here that Lawrence Leopard undoubtedly has a really good point. It is only a matter of time. Now, not only does money supply arguments, like he was saying, support his thesis, but also technical indicators on top of the macro indicators he talked about are supporting this thesis as well. I want to show you guys the weekly stochastic RSI real quick here. Okay, the last time that we saw anything like this where we were of course on the weekly being oversold was once again back here in November. before the largest run we have ever had in the history of XRP over the course of two to three or sorry a month happened. Right? Absolutely insane,
9:12 right? And and then when you cross reference this also with the daily stoastic RSI, it becomes abundantly clear we are ready for a breakout unlike anything ever seen before. And much like Larry Lawrence was saying there, like we don't know exact Lawrence Leopard, sorry. Much like Lawrence Leopard was saying there, we don't know exactly when this is going to happen, right? It could be 6 months, 12 months, 2 months from now. Those are all possibilities because we have a lot of wild cards. We have tariffs. We have trade wars. We have, you know, the Fed which is unpredictable and not looking to work with Trump right now. We have so many wild cards thrown in the mix. But the fact of the matter is it has to happen eventually. And if the Fed refuses to do their job, the US
9:58 economy will completely collapse because they can't afford to finance the debt. It's really that simple. And so whether that is 2 months, 6 months, 12 months from now, it's so silly not to take advantage of the red days. At least in my point of view, that's why I'm buying like crazy and that's why I'm trading like crazy. And well, I'm making a lot. Even despite the fact that we're down big time here, I've still been making a lot over the course of the last couple of months. While XRP has majority moved sideways, I have been able to make more than 300% during this period of time. when you were watching your XRP just trade at 220 from you know all the way over here the 27th of February all the way to the 31st of May now still at 217 I have made probably close to 500%
10:45 gains just trading the highs and lows and what's even more insane is I'm not one of those people that are going to sell you on some group that costs you $500 a month which to be frank with you guys I think my group is worth a lot more than that if you're able to 500% every five 6 months or whatever I mean I think it's worth a lot more than 500 bucks because you put $100,000 in, you can turn that into $500,000. And yes, there are people in my group that have actually done that. Just looking at my trades and copy my trades when I do them. So yeah, that's what this is all about.
