Full Transcription
Thank you. Hvað er það?
Halló, halló, everyone. Thank you. Hello Marú, hello.
Yes, yes.
Okay, all good. How are you doing?
Doing very well. How about you?
Nice, yeah, everything is good. We shooting amazing let me know if i'm too much away from my
microphone i didn't figure out how to use my computer one so i'm on my phone and i don't
know how good or bad it will be i guess i have to figure out that one out oh it's very good. It's golden. Nice.
I literally have the word set up right now. What set up do you have?
You can Google the word ENT, the microphone,
and you look at the little foot it's having,
and I literally have my phone between wait i'm gonna send you in
jim you're gonna understand that's like so bad
Like I said you in GM and imagine my phone is between the microphone and the pop filter.
like i send you in jim and imagine my phone is between the microphone
Literally.
It's so fucking bad.
But hey, it's working at least, you know.
I'm impressed they didn't have the possibility to do that on computer.
Like there is so many space every day.
So I don't know why they didn't add it
yet.
Let me invite you to co-host in case of mind rent going down.
Oh, okay. I need to get rid of the phone okay I guess it's good now I'm not sure I
upset that something is good yes I recognize give me one second I'm good
yeah yeah of course take your time so we do that and we're good.
Okay.
Maybe I'm going to put the sound.
Let me know if you can hear yourself or myself in the bell.
I put the sound a bit higher on my phone, but I'm scared.
Like when you're going to talk, you're going to hear yourself.
So let me know if that's bad. I will it a bit I think it's okay yeah okay it's good
it's very good okay perfect good to know let's give another minute for the folks to join in yeah and open such let's check the markets yep it
was a good day wasn't it to be honest yeah yeah pretty good yeah it was kind
of different like yesterday and today yesterday was a bit annoying with the
retrace like middle of the session not even middle like start
of the session but yeah market been good actually today and yesterday so at
least we have some some stuff to talk it's not like it's ranging $10 like
2020 summer which sessions do you usually trade the US?
Yeah, yeah, if that's Bitcoin, yeah, clearly.
If that's traditional finance, it's really depend.
A bit of Europe, not much.
A lot of US mainly.
Like basically most, if I have to take 10 position a day, I will say nine, eight or nine position is during the,
between NA Open and NA Close,
but most of the time it's like the first hour
or one hour before close,
because that's when the news hitting the tape,
like a lot of Donald Trump trump news they happen is there a sunday like
for european right before it's gonna be uh monday or it's happening at the end of the session which
is kind of annoying for us if you trade spx but since we got bitcoin it's whatever you know like we literally 24 24 market so we good
wow so you take at least nine or ten positions through the day yeah yeah but through any session
particularly yeah i mean most of the action is is us yeah clearly we just trade S&P 500 yeah but it's been a while it's
okay it's been it's been a while yes it's been at least four years four or five years like this
yeah yeah it just it took me time to realize it at some extent because i was so my vision was too much focus on crypto so it took
me like maybe 2022 to start realizing yeah actually you know what every day is spx you know
like if spx go down we're gonna go down also more or less or later on so yeah we literally SPX trader at some point.
Yeah, yeah.
So what do you think about the correlation theory versus the four-year cycle theory?
That's a good question.
I mean, correlation is forced because it's a risk asset.
So we don't really have some choice about that.
To be honest, that's it.
But the fourth year cycle, it could still be real at the end of the day
because the way money rotating around in term of cycle, it's not new to crypto.
Like I remember when I finally told my father I became a trader.
He told me most of the time you have some 10 years before a cycle resell more or less.
So, you know, I guess it's kind of common for everybody to think, yeah, it's going to be four or 10 cycles a year or whatever, because it's more simple for us to link something with time instead of price, I guess, because
all our life we use time and not price.
Yeah, I mean, I like both of theory.
It's just I prefer telling myself maybe something bad gonna happen like Ukraine, Russia and
that's the end of the cycle or ftx you
know yeah personally i lean towards the correlation theory and less to four year cycle theory
through the recent years i used to be a huge believer on the four year cycle theory
until you know march 2020 happened and we got turbo correlated with traditional
market yeah yeah yeah when the feds start preaching infinite amount of money right
yep yep yeah makes sense i mean it's risk asset at the end of the day if something bad happens
nobody wants money left on table right and if there is low rate type of shit well
everybody want money on the table so yeah that makes sense when you think about it and one
interesting part that i figured out is that bitcoin leads the move bitcoin tops before
s&p 500 and bottoms before before smp 500 why do you think
this happening what's your take i have no clue about it i know that's something we talk a lot
on crypto over a year like i never took the time to run data properly so you know that's a
mild thingy but yeah that's something which is kind of ironic because
Crypto should be the last but somewhat since people are so scared they want to go at
Way way faster as a be like no, I don't want to be the one
Holding the bag last and be forget and I know crypto is volatile. I rather go out
early than too late and, you know,
be so good.
Yeah, that's actually my theory is that big players want to get rid of speculative assets
faster than, you know, less speculative assets.
So I guess if they have a balance sheet of stocks and crypto, they're going to get rid
of crypto faster.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because, you know, stocks, they're going to get rid of crypto faster.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because you know stocks, you're going to be fine over time.
Like, aside if there is some black swan or some really bad event,
you'll be like, eh, whatever, you know, I will wait five more years
and I'm going to do another 2x because that's literally how market works
for index or at least USA the last what 100 200 year i forget when was
created index actually it was maybe even 180 uh yes i'm someone like this yes ridiculously old
every time it surprised me how old the financial market is but developed not only just gold or exchange because that
shit is old but yeah more developed derivative product. Yes what's also fascinating is that
especially American markets okay people are so conditioned to the American stock market that they don't check the Chinese stock market or
Japanese stock market. The American stock market amazes me because it's yielding 10%
annually for a hundred years. That's insane. That's crazy right? That's crazy yes.
But I think that makes sense because so far as the early year, America was big thanks
to World War II, like basically just you getting an advantage because you didn't suffer great
loss and basically you were like big brother of the world.
But what they did good over time is instead to doing everything as a raw material, like
we're just going to get gold we just gonna get
metal or wood or whatever they were like we're gonna be good at one thing which
became technologies for the 2000 years and they became excellent at it like
there is a lot of thing you can blame America about technology is not one of
them like the leads they got around the world and not only for
them is crazy because when you look at china for example a lot of applications are big but just
because china is big like around the world almost nobody using them but everybody know what is a
hyphen what is a windows computer everybody know watches Google, etc.
And that's what makes America so good
in terms of derivative market,
because we live in a technological world anyway.
So we kinda need them aside
if we want to go in fucking China browser,
which I don't personally, I'm not sure.
I mean, the phone are good,
but I'm not sure if mean the phone are good but I'm not sure
if I want to give my if I rather get my data to American or China yeah America
take my data I rather it this way and also from my understanding is that all
American governments always try to pump the markets and it's in their mentality to help markets and also like
they say the American dream, the American dream is to get wealthier. They have this
mentality of investing which is...
Not every country doing so, like actually a lot of country if you are in this mentality you see very poorly
because it's more a we need to share we need to build for other but yeah america is i want
everything inside my home i is american dream is literally i'm gonna get so much wealthies that i
can get everything inside my home and don't need nobody from fucking outside. Which is weird, but I mean, it's understandable,
especially nowadays, you know, like between the 2000
and 2020, even worse since COVID actually,
everybody want everything at home.
You want something? Amazon.
You want some food?
Deliveroo, a Berit.
I guess for America, it's another name.
It's DoorDash or something like that.
I'm not sure.
You want Netflix.
You want...
Yeah, I mean, they can get whatever they want without moving from...
Yeah, from the couts.
Yeah, from the couch.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Do you think that AI is a good sector to invest for the next two, three years?
It's saturated.
One issue is, so if everybody got the same information and we all know it's gonna
be the next big thing because we're gonna be forced to go through it because
technology and we see internet even if boomer was eating internet and
smartphone wait it's one of the biggest market nowadays so I think people want
to invest but the issue is it's gonna be grossly over evaluated
because it's something you can do by yourself.
That's the thing right now.
We don't have the technology to run by yourself
and be a Nvidia or a Shad GPT,
but the more we're gonna progress,
the more we're gonna have some big, big computer
for shipper and shipper, right?
So I think it's good to invest, but as a retail,
it's look like it's gonna be a bloodbath outside of Nvidia.
Nvidia did good, but Nvidia didn't did good only because
AI, they were doing already good
because they were the biggest GPU company in the world, right?
And then they became bigger because of stock.
I think Nvidia was positioned so good because they boomed on all sectors.
They boomed on crypto mining with GPUs.
They boomed on AI.
They got all the narratives which is
insane yeah yeah but I mean that's a bit sad because I feel like GPU for a gamer
it didn't progress that much even if they try to solve yeah but if you
enable this technology you're gonna have 100 more FPS. But when you look at the data without the DSSL,
I forget which is the name of the tech,
and it's kinda only plus two FPS for plus $1,000,
which is kinda terrible, not gonna lie.
So I hope they, even if they keep doing good on EA,
I hope they're not gonna forget where they come from and not be like,
yeah, fuck you gamer, now we're just doing EA and we don't give that much fuck about you guys anymore.
Do you have any AI stocks in mind?
um video that's the thing like for me that nvidia is a bit like bitcoin or spx right
it's really you you just take a comfortable position where it's like i know there is a
leader i know there is very few chance somebody gonna come and take this market because once again it's at the moment it's very expensive
if you have all those building those computer power to mine this technology
you have so much advantage that i'm not sure somebody just could come and snap this place
right it's unfair but that's how it is at the end of the day to be honest
yeah i thought too big of a lead to fumble i mean they could fumble but jensen is not that retarded
he already proven he's a really smart man and dedicated dedicated over time so yeah
dedicated over time so yeah that's our boy now give me more GPU I need the GTA
in high quality very high quality so quarter second started today is trading
little bit below the 50 weekly moving average. Are you bullish or bearish on this quarter for traditional markets?
I think we're still good.
It depends how much Trump wants to be schizophrenic because right now he's doing some stupid stuff.
It's really stupid to try to force deals this way, to be honest, especially for other people
say, well, you don't have much aside technology.
So thank you.
We have everything we need.
So I don't know.
But for me, it's looking good because even if Trump doing that, nothing break down inflation
still sticky but I mean we knew it will take
time to go back to a normal level we still I thought that's the thing we
still at 80,000 so it's never comfortable to say I am bullish when
it's 80,000 like we literally come came from how much it was 16,000 with FTX crash until 100,000 so
we already very high doesn't mean we cannot go higher but yeah I mean it's
really depend how much Trump if Trump stop being so much volatile about his
opinion I think market can go higher.
If Trump want to keep doubling down every time on tariff, I'm not sure how comfortable
over time people will be to stick with risk assets. Right now they do because the world
market called Trump bluff. Even myself, if I'm wrong right now, it's because I say Trump bluffing.
But tomorrow I think there is more announcement and maybe Trump going to say, OK, so fuck you, you guys didn't want to respect me.
So we're going to double down on our sheet and maybe market going to crush 10 percent.
Right. That's the issue.
Like in a market where Trump is there, you became a news trader almost.
It's not anymore I can have a vision on long term, even if number go up over time, it's
more I react to Trump mood of today, you know, like, is he the nice girlfriend Latina, gonna
give me that, or is he on fucking period and you're gonna murder the market that's a surprise of the
day we never know yeah totally do you think that trump is trying to kill inflation with tariffs
what's his end game with tariffs no i think tariff it's just he he realized they are very strong as
american even if outside of technologies they're not
gonna do much shit.
But they know America is very strong, they are the big brothers, so he'd be like, for
a year we supported you guys and right now it's time to give back a bit because we throw
money at you to help you on a human point of view and you never give us anything back, a side complaining.
So yeah, addressing Trump is kind of what America feel like about the rest of the world, but
it just be more honest and direct about it, to be honest. But I don't think that's bad what you're doing. I mean, America is the one deciding financially at the end of the day, to be honest, or the
one we decide because they have the derivative market, which is what?
1.2 trillion in derivative, which is what the fuck?
How even we get that big of a number so yeah yeah it's insane
like i i think i forget but i think it's 1.2 quadrillion or it was already all that i'm not
sure like it's impossible to be sure precisely because there is a lot of contract which
aren't declared publicly so you cannot really have the real number right not
everybody have to declare all the transactions they do
did Trump put any tariffs to France I'm not sure I actually didn't catch up much I think
on wine no trend every friends I guess he did so because one article said Donald Trump put LVMH, which is Louis Vuitton to the test with this tariff.
So yeah, I guess he did some tariff indirectly.
But he already did some tar tariffs back in the day.
I know a lot of people don't remember, but the first mandate Trump did, if I remember
why, he put something like 25% on French wine cellar, basically.
And I think Biden got rid of it.
And right now he's redo it just like the same
cycle of Trump trying to reinforce America and somebody else coming after
and say yeah we're gonna throw to sing every time it's the same fucking cycle
I don't like how he do things, but I think the way he tried to just do everything for
his country is way more respectable than a lot of other people.
I just don't like how extremely he does it, but sometimes you need to force other people and or is a not gonna do shit so
yeah you know I just hope this stuff gonna say tariff every day like it's a
fucking lollipop or a toddler word discovered you know yeah so basically So basically for traditional markets, you are not bullish, not bearish?
More bullish. I'm naturally more bullish than bearish, to be honest.
Market work, that's the same.
And if they go down, I don't give a fuck because that means everybody fucks or whatever, you know, at the end of the day.
Yeah.
Do you have any spot positions at the moment
uh still bitcoin hype i'm down a lot on it but the thing is hype so
it was like 20 percent of my airdrop i've put it back in and i lost like 70% I think of this 20% so I've lost a lot but at the same time
it was freebie. I still got some Ethereum but Ethereum I got them because NFT and I denominate
NFT as a Ethereum value. I finally got some Solana which is it took me a year to go in, but I guess whatever.
BNB because since you trade on Binance, if you want VIP, you're forced to have some BNB.
I was having some TRX, but I hated them.
What else, what else, what else?
What else? What else? What else?
I think that's kind of like the major of the bag.
Maybe I have like 100 token of DOT, 100 token of Z, of Z,
but that's not really an important position, right?
What was your experience trading on saying derivatives?
Did you like the experience or no excuse me i didn't hear
when you were trading on hyperliquid uh what was the experience trading on saying derivatives
it was kind of smooth because i got a lot of bad memory of derivative trading on decentralized exchange, like not the fee, it's rarely is a fee,
the issue is going to be the slippage.
And on hyperliquid, it was kind of smooth.
Like even after the issue happened recently,
I was like, maybe the liquidity is going to be lower
and I slammed 10M and basically it was still good.
Like nobody or even myself could realize a 10M happened,
right? It didn't change a single.
If you stay on Bitcoin, most of the time on derivative,
you don't see that much issue.
But one of the issue is some on-chain stuff.
People can see our position
and people can front run your ass, which I hate literally.
And that's real front runs.
That's not like you're speculating
like a Binance front run your ass, right?
It's somebody know you open the TX
and the time you get validated
because there is no protection.
Somebody gonna be like, okay, you buy 10 Bitcoin,
I'm gonna buy one bitcoin
before you and that's basically the same as a sandwich right yeah exactly yeah yeah yeah that
is sorry but i don't know why people i think it's not happening anymore but i have very bad memory
in 2022 of some wannabe decentralized exchange who were allowing people to see my posts
and front run me like I'm a bitch.
Like Coswap, that's the same.
Coswap, you can front run stuff and that's terrible.
Or maybe not Coswap, but something similar.
No, actually it's Coswap.
I'm pretty sure I remember you could front run people
basically, you can see the quotes they're gonna get
and front run them.
I think Coswap is spot only.
Yeah, yeah, but you still can.
You can frontrun on spot.
Yeah, yeah, of course, yeah.
I mean, right now, most spot decks have math protection.
Ah, yeah, that's good.
That's good they all did because that's good they that's good they already because that's
annoying that was so about I don't know about the derivatives if there is map
protection on derivatives I mean most of them aren't really decks so they execute on the behind that the thing I cannot
miss is a position directly on chain you're gonna see it after it's happened
which is not bad to be honest because that's one of the issue of building on
chain derivative project if you build a derivative project, people want to exploit you or your user,
and that's really one of the hard parts to say,
okay, how do I protect my user?
Because if I'm really fully on-chain and decentralized,
there is a lot of vector attack.
A shit ton of them. That's terrible's terrible yeah that's very true yeah even hyper
liquid which technically is not a dex no this of walls yeah yeah it's not a dex it's very close but
it's not that a dex and sometime to be honest i prefer my stuff to not be fully Dex. And sometimes, to be honest,
I prefer my stuff to not be fully Dex, or if that's full Dex,
I need a lot of little condition,
like we speak early on, right?
A lot of little stuff will make me,
okay, you're a Dex,
but I know there is some protection,
like a sex, for example.
That's why I feel like the best model is having a DEX but working like sex
almost or trying to imitate the most possible sex because you know there is a reason why Binance is
still alive. It's at the end of the day because they did well enough to survive right? Yep.
well enough to survive, right?
Yep.
When it's came to liquidation rule,
margin rule, et cetera.
I feel like a lot of people ignoring how good Binance
and Bybit are to define those stuff,
even if that's unlucky because Binance doesn't update
leverage requirement and leverage rule.
So it's allow people to manipulate shitcoin really easy,
but for legal reasons,
this discussion about this will stop there, you know.
Yeah, Binance, I think, started faking
or giving false OI data since 2021.
OI data since 2021.
And then you couldn't see how much liquidation was happening,
how much OI.
And it was difficult to trade based on these metrics.
Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Especially liquidation.
Do you know how InSilico is calculating the Y long short?
It's not in Silico, by the way, if you talk about ExoShort, it's not in Silico, I forgot his name, but it's a friend of him.
No, you think you just take the difference between open and close of a position.
You already say long short is decent but you
shouldn't take it as an absolute even the documentation say it I think I
remember because I got the same question a few months ago so long short yes so in
documentation they say it so net long and net short is an experimental indicator that
estimates the amount of future contract entering or leaving the market it work only fast oi
reporting exchange bitmex by bit okx femex so basically if price up or I up new long price down or I up new short etc etc
and yes that's what I remember because I'm buying on the issue is for example when there is some
huge liquidation wait because I need to I need to show you guys I'm gonna put it in the comment of the space. Where do I have this video?
Where do I have this video? The issue is Binance. I put the timestamp also of the video.
also of the video the issue is by notes is the fact they don't report when there
is a huge liquidation so I put the video with the timestamp in the comment of the
space you're not gonna get the right data reported basically so you cannot do
that type of shit like it's a pen of 10
They gonna clip the data in one shot basically and it's happened also because I do some stuff on binance data
But sometime you're gonna have so
1000 trade for one minute and then there is a huge spike and you're gonna get 10,000 trade
But when you look at the API after you realize realize wait it's not only 10 000 trade it's
f**king 20 000 trade and you realize there is a difference between what the web socket give you
and what's the api result giving you during high volatility like basically there is data
would disappear out of nowhere and they reappear only in the final report but that's really
annoying to prove each times a report to be honest so yeah you cannot for a
binance you cannot do shit you never know the truth about them which is
annoying but I mean it's a Chinese action so they do whatever they want you
know if they want to be criminals that's up to them
Are you building anything at the moment
Excuse me, I didn't hear Are you building anything at the moment and it cool up and
I was doing one but I got a friend who died recently uh i was coding with him a lot he give me back
the love of coding because i stopped coding initially because i did a burnout and i was
building with him a website where you could see the last five minutes of binance trade
you could see which ticker moves the most etc etc. And yeah, we were doing a lot.
But since it died, I was like, you know what?
I don't want to think about it.
So I shut down the website.
But no, I saw this.
No, I wasn't building that much because I'm more leaning at the moment to go back at trading.
I got a bit back this dog inside me.
Like in 2022, 2023, I was like, you know what?
I'm just going to invest.
I don't want to trade or do some automated trading, right? Because it's fine.
That's a different activities I'm trading or investing.
But yeah, I consider it did go back to trade a bit
maybe for one year you know I miss a bit how strict you need to be with
yourself a bit adrenaline I was having every day like it's a dopamine or so oh Oh yeah.
When you say investing, do you mean crypto only or other investments as well?
Yeah, other, you know, like if I see a really good idea, I'm like, yeah, sure. Take it, you know, whatever it is.
But it's rare.
I'm very, very, very strict with other.
Like I expect from other is the same as i expect from me and
i'm a f**king with myself so it's the same with other you know like i need really somebody to
throw an idea where i'm like it's not just the same thing as other it's like wow yeah you cook
bro like take that and go finish your you know do your best it's really complex
yeah the channel aside and there's a lot of video games yeah mainly recently because
yeah you know sometimes you get this period where you don't really move forward and i was inside
this period for one month so
nothing particular but at least I'm happy you know I do what I want so that's a
bless actually that's really a bless I'm a really lucky man to be where I am
right now it's really a fucking bless yeah it doesn't you don't need to grind
every month you can take a month to relax for yourself.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, that's a blessing.
That's a blessing.
Especially, like, sometimes I take one derivative position on Monday
and I do good and I don't need to stress myself for the rest of the week.
And that shit is so enjoyable that's almost ridiculous how
i don't know if that's comfortable is the right word but it just you don't have this pressure of
day to day oh i need to scalp today or and tomorrow i need to verify run my contract blah blah blah
blah i need to call this client y yada, yada, you know.
It was a bit of a rush in 2022 and 2023,
but yeah, nowadays it's really just go with the flow,
trust your guts and do your best kind of.
But I mean, I'm gonna break that because as I say,
I want to go back to trading probably.
I'm not sure if I will do it solo
or I will try to join a company again. I'm not sure if i will do it solo or i will try to join a company again
i'm not sure yet but yeah i know i still got that dog inside me for one last dance you know
did you trade on uh on a firm on a trading firm in the past yeah i did for uh three different one
Yeah, I did for three different ones.
How was your experience with that?
It's really different.
It's really, really different because so there is a one who's going to restrict you a lot and put you in a corner.
You're not going to be comfortable, which makes the task very hard because maybe the style you develop over the year
not really fitting that environment, right?
It's maybe you're a boxer and somebody's going to come at you and say,
no, now you do fucking jujitsu or whatever.
No, I'm a boxer. I'm not a fucking jujitsu man, right?
But the other one, it was very enjoyable
because they let me time to think about stuff.
They didn't give me pressure.
They give me very precious stuff such as analyzing or thinking about risk or reviewing some existing edge, some optimization also.
So, you know, I was having the time to develop around them
instead of being forced in a corner I don't like. So it's really different.
Some really good experience, some really bad experience. I regret none of them.
I think it was just one of them we weren't in line what they were expecting from me and what i was wanting to do at this moment of
my life so yeah but overall i think crypto firm are very cool at least the three i did very cool
uh very human it just sometimes you're gonna be in conflict with the value of the people but
it's whatever you know you're here to work not to to
have a fiction opinion if you want an opinion open your own company right it's not like you can
complain for the folks that are listening and they're trading what's the process of getting
into a trading firm i'm not gonna lie it's a lot of people who know you most of the time so that's
why it's important for me if you guys want to get into one of those firm is be honest about what you
think online journal stuff like for people who know me since a while i have 100 000 tweets in three years literally four years like there is no
coincidence i'm very vocal so people know me and then can analyze me pretty easily you know like
trade from right now trade from the past uh for people who know me in 2022 also i was just reviewing
some i was like okay, how looking market making,
we're going to try spread trading.
We're going to talk about the option.
It just be very online about what you do.
So people can see what you do.
But aside, if you're very good,
people are not going to be interested into you.
But if they see you try your best,
they gonna maybe be into you like you don't
need to be an influencer but what you need is twitter is a fucking giant journal i see it that
way make sure you write everything down your win your mistakes your loss be honest with yourself
and people are just gonna grab gravitate around you naturally right that's how
it's work and that's the same for a job but yes that's one part annoying on
crypto it's a lot of I know him so I trust him blah blah blah you know but
just write stuff online for yourself and then maybe somebody gonna gravitate
around you and be like okay you sound like interesting do you want to call
with me we bound some idea and shit like that that's literally how it's working for me like for
the three of them it's people so what i did online they contact me no two of them actually
because the third one i contacted them but it was a very specific job so it was more yeah I'm not gonna say it but it was too specific anyway
so yeah the online if you want to online don't be impressed if you need to be
online every day you know yeah yeah you're one of the most consistent people
I've seen on Twitter with daily tweets for years. What do you do daily here? What's your motivation?
My motivation you say? Yeah. I'm just having fun more than anything else. There is some
day where like I'm gonna tweet less because I'm not in the mood like
recently I didn't tweet much for a period because well at least just died so i was
like yeah i don't really want to communicate with other people and i knew i was having a bad mood
right like we want to read somebody who have a bad mood every day but just be yourself for me
that's what makes it fun it's if i want to talk about video game i'm gonna talk about it if I want to talk about market I do it about this sick manga I discover or whatever I'm gonna do it
that just fun to me I've always been very social to be honest and I always
like it just talking about what I think and read other people opinion about it
right because if you don't confront yourself to other people how the fuck
you know if you're wrong or right so yeah just having fun online and be with
other people I guess that's how we do it nowadays like it used to be inside the
bar in our parent generation but yeah now that's how we do it nowadays. Like it used to be inside the bar in our parent generation,
but yeah, nowadays you do that online, right?
Yes, yes.
Yes.
Times definitely changed.
Yeah, but I just recommend if you guys a lot online,
don't forget to go a bit outside also,
because depending on how much time you spend online the brain
needs some oxygen you know like in our generation we're gonna be way too much on computer and mobile
and it's fine but yeah don't forget to go outside sometime walk a bit sometimes i just watch at my
balcony people right i smoke my vape and I watch just other people living,
you know, that some fresh air and I reconnect a bit
with what is outside this little piece of computer
will make me talk to other people like right now online.
Right?
So yeah, have fun, be yourself,
but don't forget to take some errands.
So that's really important.
And that's crazy because that's my father
who was annoying me about that.
Like he was saying, stop this so much on your computer.
You need some, you need to breath some hair.
And when I was young, I was like, yeah, that's retarded.
But now I realize there are sometimes some pressure changing a bit everything,
you know, through your day.
You don't hit the mountains?
I see you post some mountains.
No, not anymore.
I've moved a bit away from the mountain.
I'm still close to it, but the issue is here in winter it's really hard to
take your car and go on top of mountain and on summer most of the time it's way too hot so
I'm very sensible to high heat so I have issue to move and chill the mountain but I have a very
beautiful right now I'm looking at my window while we talking and I have a very beautiful right now. I'm looking at my window while we talking and I have a very beautiful in front of me
But that's unlucky tonight. There is some cloud
low altitude cloud so I see a bit of form but I not I don't see the one mountain right and there is no more snow at this moment
we were having snows a mountain until
having snow on the mountain until mid-marsh and right now it's a bit more hot so the wall snow
is gone which is very unlucky because i like when there is snow on top of the mountain
have you ever met someone from city yeah two people uh one uh one young girl which was very kind she is a developer she developed some
web app and another one which is the a dude which is I don't know like 15
minutes away from me not that far away and you were like yeah sometime you want
to grab a drink and I was like sure let go. And we did grab a drink and it was a very nice discovery.
He's a very nice individual, very kind.
Yeah.
But outside of this, yeah, I don't move much.
So the two people came to my city because the girl, it was our family living there
and the dude lived close to me.
But outside of this, I didn't move much.
Outside of this, I didn't move much.
Coinbase did.
Coinbase did.
Coinbase invited me to Formula One race to Paris and to Cannes, I think.
But Cannes, I did get operated in November.
So it was like, no, Paris more recently, I wasn't available.
But maybe the next one, I will go to the meeting
because I think I can meet some big French trader and I'm really looking forward to to
meet them you know like I know some of them not on personal level but I know some of them
are very smart and bright individuals so yeah yeah, just need to motivate my ass
to move to this shit-old Paris, which I hate.
I absolutely hate the capital of France.
It's terrible.
Everything is perfect in France.
I love France.
And if you ask me to go into Paris,
I'm going to be depressed for a whole fucking month
because I know people are terrible
inside this city and every big city is terrible i hate it yeah big cities make you uh i think a
psychopath yeah yeah yeah for real that's literally people are terrible. People don't have time.
They always feel like,
you know, like the rabbit inside
Ali's borderlands,
the little rabbit,
I'm late, I'm late, I'm late.
That's literally every people
when they're living inside the capital.
Toza is the capital, like, chill bro, you got the time, you know?
Like, yo, chill, bro.
You got the time, you know.
I was invited also by Coinbase for Formula One this year on Singapore, on Spain and on Abu Dhabi.
Abu Dhabi.
Oh yeah, those are too far away from me too.
Spain I wouldn't maybe, but Singapore, I'm not ready for that yet to be honest.
How about Abu Dhabi?
Where it is?
Abu Dhabi.
Yeah.
The Arab Emirates.
No, no, no, no, it's way too far.
I'm not sure how my stomach reacts to big travel yet. Like, we did six hours in car and it was kind of terrible. So, yeah, imagine like 10 hours in plane, how terrible it will be for me.
I think Abu Dhabi is going to be for you like six hours, maximum seven.
On plane?
Yeah, on plane.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, God, you don't know.
Oh, yeah, when you say Emirates, I was like Dubai, but no, yeah, I'm fucking stupid.
Emirates is not only Dubai, right?
Yeah, yeah.
Where is Emirates, actually? Dubai, right? Yeah, yeah.
Where is Emirates actually? Let me map. No. I'm still freaking bad.
Dubai is part of the United Arab Emirates.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, makes sense, yeah.
Oh yeah, actually, no, it's not that far away.
Okay, my friend.
Yeah, I was thinking it was fucking like close to China.
That's why I say like...
Oh, no, no.
I'm so fucking retarded.
How would the...
Oh, I'm so fucking dumb, Jesus Christ.
Yeah, I'll probably be there in December for the Formula One event.
Oh, okay.
I mean, I wouldn't probably be probably there but if there is some more
around europe yeah i should motivate my ass to to meet some people to be honest because as i say
enjoyable i just don't want to do ethereum convention or a like this
no straight to ethereum right but it's a lot of marketing in an
insane amount of marketing.
Like your friend told me
Ethereum was so fucking bad.
Yeah, I think there is
a conference now in Paris
in April, I think.
But yeah, it's full of marketing
and it's tiresome. You don't learn
any single thing.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, don't really, I really, really, really don't want whatever somebody really gonna
came at me and say, hey, did you discover the new Parachain on DOT?
Hey, did you hear at Polygon we have a new layer 45?
Bro, I'm here to meet people and hear about you i don't care about
your subnet literally so yeah and also coinbase is doing private dinners as far as i know yeah
that's what they invited me into like a dinner between french dude that's why i really hesitated
like i think one day i will pull the trigger and just come you know
But it just it wasn't a good time when they asked me I like bro
I literally don't know if I get operated like in two weeks
have no clue right now but yeah it's really cool coinbase do so even if i feel like yes i'm gonna
approach you with a marketing thing i feel like it's cool to just meet other trader from your
country your area and from your culture because after all if i meet some french dude it's gonna
be very similar to my culture right i've grown French I'm born in France literally so yeah I feel like that's what's
interesting just meeting other people which are places me so yeah W coinbase
for that to be honest yeah it's a big w i don't care if they do it for marketing it's uh
yeah i agree for it especially the formula one event is so dope i think they have the
aston martin uh they are sponsoring aston martin i didn't know okay Okay. I mean, it makes sense that you're coming there, right?
Yeah.
A lot of crypto projects and crypto exchanges are sponsoring Formula One. I think seven teams are being sponsored by crypto projects.
Even Siba Inu, the coin, was sponsoring Formula One team.
That's crazy.
Okay. I didn't even use that i mean it doesn't impress me that much because they know how it important it is the same for example in france
i know a football team you know like the spot uh tv spot on the bottom of the Stadium I know people bite or shit a lot as a sponsor of the same
So, you know, it makes sense like you want some money throughout you and at the same time
You're gonna do some publicity for example directly or indirectly. So
It makes sense crypto attack formula one because formula one tennis golf it's a lot of rich folk
right so you really want to to be seen by those people who have a very expensive hobby we're gonna Yeah, definitely.
Looks like we completed one full hour of this call.
I had a great time with you, Maru.
Yeah, it was a pleasure. Yeah, we ended up with you.
Yeah, always happy to hear you.
You have the best takes in City and you're so fun fun to discuss i'm just so retarded kid you know
no way all right guys uh that's it for today we're gonna record the space you can hear it again
uh thank you so much and see you next month. Take care.
Have a good day. Bye-bye.
