We are Unicorn Furniture.
Hey guys, welcome to the live stream.
the basement is there reason for some optimism, right? Good feelings. And what is a sea of red
Is there a reason for some optimism, right?
across the markets, across the crypto sector, and across our good friend Unicorn Fart Desk? We're
going to talk about the reasons why we very well may have some things overall to be very, very
optimistic about. But first, my disclaimer, this is not financial advice.
Please, whatever you invest in, whatever it is,
I talk about unicorn fart dust
primarily during these live streams.
I also talk about silver and gold.
I'll talk about the stock market.
But whatever you do, please do it responsibly.
And remember, I'm not a professional financial advisor.
I'm just a guy in his basement in St. Louis.
But what is going on out there in the markets?
And why do we at Unicorn Fart Dust, why do we, right?
Our little gym, right, that was created different.
I want to remind you of something very, very pertinent to our situation right now.
I need to move my microphone a little bit closer
so you can hear me. Hey, what the heck? Let's do a full microphone. Hopefully you guys can hear me
this morning. I think we're having some technical problems. Can you hear me if you can? Oh boy.
Let's see if Susie. Susie, are you there? Can you hear me?
Remember, you need to hold your button when you talk.
I'm trying to, I was doing something.
We're good. Thank you. All right, dear. I'm trying to, I was doing something. Okay. Thank you. Thank you. Okay. We're good. Thank you. All right, guys. So as we are in this
challenging time, something very critical for us to remember as dusters. Let's do a quick review.
I wrote it down here. Where is it? Here it is right here. Okay. How different we are from day
one. We weren't created to provide exit liquidity for a bunch
of big investors. We didn't have venture capitalists. We didn't have billionaires behind
us. We had $100. We had my basement. We had an experiment. That's what we had. This has been a
different situation from day one. We also didn't have any big celebrity endorsements. Not yet, anyway. Not yet. Now, I'm not hinting at anything, but I do believe there's absolute potential that at some point in the future, we could get a big celebrity endorsement because we are so different. And on top of that, what you've created is something very good. Why wouldn't John Chena or Sina, however you pronounce it, want to be involved?
And again, I'm not insinuating anything.
I'm just looking at the facts of what you've created and realizing that big people are attracted to what is going on and what you've created here.
But right now, what are we in?
Some people say, oh, we're in the valley of death.
It's dark in the general economy.
It's dark in the stock market.
It's dark in the crypto world.
It's so dark, maybe I should turn the darn lights off here for a little bit.
I don't even know if that would work.
Oh yeah. Look at that. Hey, that looks pretty good. Maybe I'll leave it like that for a little
bit. It's so dark, but is it actually an opportunity? Can the lights come back on?
Will the light, do you believe the lights will come back on? Because that's the general macro environment in which we're working right now.
All right, now, let's take a look at some optimistic news.
And we're going to take a look at what's going on out there in the economy in general
that could also be very good for the crypto sector.
But we got this news when it comes to crypto.
Here we go. Hold on here.
Okay, here we are. And right, okay. Potential Bitcoin price could fall to $65,000. But that's irrelevant since central bank liquidity is coming. So the reason why we want to keep an eye on this, guys, and we've talked about this, right?
When things get wonky in the economy, when the Fed funhouse, when the monetary policy that the Federal Reserve and Jerome Powell are doing right now falls apart, all they know to do, all they can do at this point is provide more liquidity into the markets.
is provide more liquidity into the markets. Analysts say central banks will expand liquidity
in the near future, opening the door for Bitcoin price to make a push toward new all-time highs.
And when they talk about Bitcoin price, they're talking about crypto in general. It'll rise
all shifts, okay? All ships. They're talking about the Bitcoin price that's gone down, right, and gold surged
to a record high at the same time, undermining Bitcoin's digital gold narrative. However,
many experts argue that a Bitcoin rally is imminent as multiple governments take steps
to avert an economic crisis. How do you feel about this whole Bitcoin is digital gold? I know a lot of people in the precious metal sector are adamantly against that.
I know that if you remember, right, I was a gold and silver maxi for years and years.
My stance on that has changed quite a bit.
I now see crypto as this worldwide, especially Bitcoin, okay, especially Bitcoin, and especially baby Bitcoin,
which I like to refer to as unicorn fart dust, right, our UFD, the pure decentralized cryptos,
right, that haven't been in what I think is kind of like this, I don't know, what happened over the
last years where big, big, big money got involved.
And I think kind of, I'll just say it kind of polluted a lot of the crypto sector,
that the pure crypto plays, the Bitcoins, the unicorn fart dust,
and there's other ones out there as well.
But in my opinion, we're a lot more like Bitcoin than most any other cryptocurrencies. Just my opinion, not giving financial advice, but that when I look
at Bitcoin, I do see it now as a form of digital gold. I see it as digital gold, right? Gold is
physical gold. In my opinion, Bitcoin is a lot like digital gold. And what's so cool about it,
and they're so similar, is that both are money kind of universally throughout the world, right?
And Bitcoin has this advantage that it's purely digital.
So it can be, you know, carried or brought anywhere.
Anyone with a phone can access it.
Gold has the advantage that it's got 5,000 years of history.
This didn't, I didn't mean for this to turn into a comparison of gold and Bitcoin. But the point here is that while gold and Bitcoin are very similar, okay, they both exist outside of the fiat money system.
I'm going to turn the lights back on.
What do you say, Dusters?
Now, they both operate outside of the paper money system.
The one that none of us, I love my country.
I don't love paper money, okay?
I love real money like the founding father set out.
So Bitcoin, crypto, unicorn fart dust, okay, gold
and silver. Here's a one ounce silver coin worth about $35 today. Guys, I'm telling you, you've
never owned a silver coin. Give it a shot. This is the physical form of crypto. They both exist outside of the fiat paper money system. They both allow universally,
right? Bitcoin is valuable everywhere. Unicorn fart dust has its value everywhere in the world.
Silver and gold have their value everywhere in the world. You know, all the paper money,
all the whatever, you know, they aren't universally
accepted and they're printed into oblivion. So it is a big deal, right, that the central banks
are going to have to liquidate. They're going to have to add liquidity into the market. They're
going to have to print money. That's all they know how to do, period. Okay. Let me give you a quick history lesson. When the tech bubble burst in
1999, some of you maybe weren't even around. Like I remember it. I was there, actually worked in the
tech field back then. They printed money in 2007, 2008, instead of dealing with the real issues in
the banking system. Remember the great financial crisis, right? They didn't
deal with it. Nobody went to jail. Well, one guy did, but basically everybody got away with it.
The Fed printed a bunch of money and actually paid the bankers a bunch of bonuses. All right.
What happened during C-19? Oh, what do you think happened? Buttercups. Oh, I forgot. I apologize.
Oh, I forgot. I apologize. Dusters, horns up. Okay. That's me. That's you. Unicorn fart dust dusters,
horns up. Okay. And smile. Do the three second smile with me. I'm going to do it here while I'm
talking. Right. But that's all these people know how to do. Liquidate, create more. What is this
is supposed to have value. Sure. It does. right? Any of us who are born in America,
paper money seems valuable, but they can print as much of it as they want. They can just make
it out of thin air. Press a button, okay? You can't print. I got to be careful with grandpa's
clock. I've been knocking it off. You can't print more UFD. That's one of the, you know, that's, you understand, that is so
important because that gives it scarcity, scarcity, even on days like what we've been through with UFD
where people, right, the price has been going down. Every day we get more and more people who
are diamond hooved are going to hold onto their UFD.
And eventually, because we can't make the jug any bigger.
Dusters, buttercups, dusters, diamond-hooved dusters.
We can't make this jug any bigger.
And this jug is available all over the world.
That's a key thing. And as these
paper fiat systems continue, the whole thing, and I promise I'll stop on this note, but the whole
system, right, under the best of circumstances, the Fed is shooting for 2% inflation per year.
That means they're shooting to steal 2% of the value of your paper money per year
by printing more and more and more money. So anyway, what else is going on in the world of
crypto and Bitcoin? Here we got this news. Boom. Michael Saylor and MicroStrategy bought another 22,000 Bitcoin for $1.92 billion. Now, if we look at what else
is going on in the world right now, let's look at what's going on in the general markets,
because guys, here's the situation. The general markets, the general stock markets,
situation. Okay. The general markets, the general stock markets, the general economy are in bad,
bad trouble. And that will be the reason why we want to pay attention to that. We don't like it.
Two things that has a major impact on the crypto market, which has a major impact on unicorn fart
dust. Okay. And that will be the catalyst for this liquidation for the money printing, whatever you want to call it, that will
make crypto in general, make Bitcoin go higher. And I believe could, right? Look, I'm not, I don't
have a crystal ball. I'm just telling you my truth, but I think could ignite a rally in the
meme coins and our good friend Unicorn Bart does. But let's go take a look at these general markets
because it is pretty much spooky at this point. Here we go from Yahoo Finance this morning.
Stock market today, the Dow, the S&P 500, and the NASDAQ tumble as Liberation Day worries trap investors.
So investors are feeling trapped.
U.S. stocks tumbled Monday, eyeing a return to losses as trade war worries kept building in the run-up to President Trump's tariff bonanza later in the week.
in the week. Now there's something very interesting that's happening today. We'll see how the day
Now, there's something very interesting that's happening today.
plays out, but could have another major impact on the psychology of the United States consumer and
investor. And that is right here. Markets are set to wrap up March on a woeful note after a rough
month and quarterly and quarter. Okay, guys, here's what happens typically on Wall Street.
On the last day of the quarter, today's March 31st,
it's the last day of the first quarter of the year.
Traditionally, the big financial companies, that's when they put out,
that's when Fidelity Investments and Vanguard and Schwab,
that's when they release and print their quarterly statements for their customers. So typically, they always try,
they call it paint the tape at the end of the quarter to make things look as good as possible.
This quarter has been a disaster for many of the markets, okay? So people in a couple of weeks
are going to get their statements and be like, oh my gosh, I thought I had 300,000. I thought the stock market only went
up. I thought, you know, and people are going to freak out when they get their quarterly statements
because I don't know what's the NASDAQ down. Let's go see if I can, if I can take, get a look here
and get an idea. Hold on. We'll go back to the main Yahoo Finance page. And let's go to, there we go.
Here's the markets. All right, there's the S&P.
Let's just look at the NASDAQ real quick.
The tech, because that really has a pretty solid, shoot, I think I pressed crude oil.
Let's see what pulls up here. That has a big, yeah, I pressed crude oil. NASDAQ. Try that again. Let's see what pulls up here.
That has a big, yeah, that's crude oil.
We didn't want crude oil.
And let's see if we've got the NASDAQ.
Thank you for your patience, dusters.
All right, so the NASDAQ's below 17,000.
Let's take a look and see what it's done
in the last six months. The last six months. Okay. So it's gone from 20,000 down to 17,000.
That's a 15%, almost perfect 15% decrease. So that means somebody out there who, let's say had, oh, here's an easy way to
look at it, had $20,000 in tech stocks or had $200,000 in tech stocks at the beginning of the
year, right? They had their end of the year statement like, woohoo, I've got 200K. Hold on
here. Boop. Okay. They're going to get their statement.
Instead of $200K, they're going to see a negative $30,000, and they're going to see $170,000.
And this is all going to work.
I think, to a certain degree, it's all being kind of planned out this painful period so that it sets the stage for the Federal Reserve and for Trump to be able to liquidate the markets. All right, let's get back to UFD. We got a contest, Dusters. Okay. And,
oh my gosh, we are not winning. This one came from Yami and we're in the semifinals round and
I am not on the right page. Now I am. This one came from Yami and we're on the semifinals round, and I am not on the right page. Now I am. This one came from Yami,
and we're on the semifinals round. It's us versus Sigma. And at this point, let me refresh it here.
See if I can get this to refresh and see where we stand. Let's go, dusters. We have fun doing these.
We can still have some fun, right? Okay, we're not. it's close. It's neck and neck. We're at 47%.
I think I retweeted it and let's have some fun.
Let's show, let's stop our hooves
and show them what we can do.
I'm going to do the duster of the day next.
And today's duster of the day is system error.
System error has been around, right?
And System Error is a dedicated UFD diamond-hooved duster.
And we want to recognize them today for everything they're doing to help our community.
Yes, I am on the right page.
HODL UFD, buy UFD, buy UFD.
And let's go out and see what, let's go out and see what our friend System Air had a little note that they wanted me to share with you guys.
He says, unicorn fart dust since before Christmas. And I know deep down in my heart, this is the one to
hold the cycle. If you, Basement Ron, can show up every day for the community, I, as a community
member, can do the same each and every one for you. This journey will be one all of us reminisce
on for the rest of our lives. Long live unicorn fart dust. Hey, there's System Air again.
If you could, hey, let's be dusters.
I'm going to post a post about System Air here when we're done.
But let's all go out there and support System Air today.
That's what we do, right?
Even in the darkest of days, if you're here right now, you're a duster. We can support each other. That's the value that we provide. We've got this unbelievable, right, flat organization where you can make a big difference. A little difference you can make today, right? Smile, go out, Follow our friend. Okay? I mean, it's a big, big deal that we can, hold on here,
that we continue to do this. Am I back? Wait a minute. There it is. Okay. There's System Air.
Now, join me, right, and let's all help install System Air's golden horn because System Air,
All system errors, golden horn, because system error, you are the duster of the day.
Let's just talk about some more worldwide news in terms of adoption of crypto.
And what we have here is news from France, from Reuters.
This is happening all over the world, guys.
French state bank, BPI France, builds fund to buy cryptocurrencies.
And it says right here in orange, France's, and it is not up.
And it says right here in orange, which you can now see, France's state-owned investment
bank, BPI France, plans to spend up to 25 million euros on little known cryptocurrencies in a bid
to support France's crypto businesses. It said on Thursday, and the bank had previously spent 150
million euros in investment. So this is major state owned and major banks around the world
continuing to adopt crypto,
continuing to recognize that crypto is real.
Another article from our friends at Reuters,
Japan to give crypto assets legal status as financial products.
And it says here in yellow, Japan's financial services agency, the FSA,
which I think is their version of the SEC, our Security and Exchange Commission, plans to revise the Financial Instruments and Exchange Act to give crypto assets legal status as financial products.
The Nikkei Business Daily said on Sunday without citing sources. This was interesting, though. As part of the move, crypto assets will be put under insider trading restrictions that prohibit buying and selling based on undisclosed information.
So what does that tell us? That tells us that just two little news stories here, Japan and France,
right, are making moves in the crypto world. The world of crypto continues to expand. Let's go out here
and take a look. This is interesting. I found this one to be very fascinating. This will
absolutely have an impact on the world. Guys, look, from a macroeconomic perspective, there's nothing more scary to the world's financial economic planners than what we are moving into right now.
Now, if you'd followed me a year ago, which a lot of you hadn't, some of you had from my Silver and Gold channel,
I sat down here and banged the table for you that I believed we were heading into a stagflationary environment. And maybe you've
never heard the word stagflation, but stagflation, and I'm going to give you the reasons why,
is probably the scariest and most important economic concept that you need to understand.
Because the last time the United States went through a stagflationary period, it was an unbelievable period of time
for alternative assets. And when I say alternative assets, now what I refer to are things like
cryptocurrency. What alternative assets were back then were things like silver and gold. Silver went
up like more than 50 times in value during the 1970s, during this stagflationary
period. I think gold went up. I'm going to come back to this. Gold went up like 25x during that
period. And now I believe, and we're going to look at this article, but I believe that we're moving
into a stagflationary period again. Something really interesting that I heard during this last
stagflationary period of the 70s, like they compared the value of different things. And
during the 70s, and you can fact check me on this, I'm not, I heard someone say this, and I believe
it to be true, but during the 70s, the stock market was pretty much essentially flat, meaning the stock market didn't really go up or go down.
It was flat. The value of a house doubled.
OK, so if you own a home during the 70s, the value of a house essentially doubled because there was the stagflation.
The value of gold went up like what? I thought it was 17 times.
it was 17 times, but this guy said 25 times or whatever it was. The reality is that during that
But this guy said 25 times or whatever it was.
stagflationary period, real assets like a house went up in value, but real alternative assets,
things that are used to measure value outside of the fiat money system really exploded in value.
really exploded in value. And guys, there's proof, right? I saw it coming like a year ago. Again,
right? Stagflation is hitting us. And look at this article from Axios, because I think Axios
hit the nail on the head in a very succinct way, probably described it even better than I can,
the S word. And that's what I called it, the S word. So I'm not saying they ripped me off, but it's
rippling through Wall Street and Main Street. Okay. This is very important to understand, guys,
the economic growth. Okay. So the economy has flatlined so far this year, but inflation has
picked up and consumers expect both to get worse in the months ahead.
Okay, so they expect that the economy is going to get worse
Now, why is that important?
Because the United States economy is a consumer-based economy.
All right, so the consumers are also saying that,
you know, the statistics show, and here's the other thing,
the statistics that the government puts out, nobody believes them, okay?
If you didn't know that, whether you're talking about unemployment numbers,
inflation numbers, GDP numbers, they're very, very much, let's just say, suspect.
And some people might even claim manipulated.
But we're in a situation right now where the economy has flatlined.
Okay. That's, that's the stag, write that down, stag, stagnant and stagflation. We have a stagnant
economy, but we have inflation picking up and we have the consumer thinking that both, and that's
inflation, that's deflation. So you have stag, nint economy, inflation,
that's stagflation, and the consumer thinking that both are going to get worse. Why does it matter?
In purple, for the moment, it adds up to Wall Street's least favorite S-word, stagflation,
stagnant growth mixed with elevated inflation. Now, the other kicker here, guys, and why this is really scary is because
we have not even begun to feel much effect from this massive tariff program that President Donald
Trump is going to institute upon the world. And people are saying that that could really throw
inflation into an unbelievable area, probably similar to what we experienced after C-19 when they printed all that money.
That pattern in pink, that pattern most vividly seen in the 1970s, like we talked about, is particularly painful
because it means people experience pain from both lack of job opportunities and higher prices.
People aren't getting raises.
Businesses are struggling because of the stagnant economy.
But at the same time, we're dealing with inflation.
It also leaves the Fed and other economic
policymakers with less ability to cushion the blow because a move that might address one side
of the problem could worsen the other. I got to hand it to Axios. I'm going to come back to this,
but let me visually show you what they're just described to you. Okay. This, this box is stagflation. Okay. See,
it says do not open. They do not want us to open this because inside this box, right, he is in a
box, Jerome Powell, that's the Federal Reserve. That's what the Axios just said, because on this
side, you have a recession or stagnant economy. And on this side, you have
inflation. Okay. So if we have really high inflation, what they have to do is raise interest
rates. But when they raise interest rates to fight inflation, they get stuck on the other side of the
box. Okay. Because that makes the recession or the S, the stagnant, makes that even worse. And what do you do when you have bad economic issues going on in a stagnant economy?
Well, you got to lower rates.
But then when they lower rates, that's what happens.
He, that's Jerome Powell.
And at the end of the day, get ready for this.
And when they do this, guys, okay, right?
But it's a bad situation.
Okay, now let's back up and remember what has done well during stagflationary periods in the past.
Alternative assets, right?
If you believe that cryptocurrency are the modern form of precious metals, right, are the digital form.
If you think Bitcoin is digital gold, think about this for a second, buttercups,
dusters, and diamond hooves, right? I do. I generally believe that now. I know I had a
transformation. I used to sit down here two years ago and say, Bitcoin's unicorn fart dust.
But now I see it differently. Let's look at what happened during the 70s with gold,
and then compare that to what's happening now, which is
very similar to the 70s. Okay, I was born in the early 70s. I remember it clearly. You can trust me.
What would that mean for crypto? What would that mean for digital gold? That would mean that we
could be in for a very, very, very lucrative time for both.
Right now, people that are diehard precious metals people, I get it.
They're going to say, oh, Ron's crazy.
Ron's gone off the deep end, whatever.
But there's other people out there that recognize that both silver and gold and crypto have value.
Right. And one of them is me.
I know there's a guy named Larry Leppard or Larry Leppard, who I followed for a long time.
He was a pure silver and gold guy.
He has an MBA from Harvard.
I've always had the greatest of respect for him.
He loves gold and silver, right?
I still love gold and silver.
But he also loves Bitcoin, okay?
Now, I don't want to put words into his
mouth, but I know that's a fact. Fact check me on that one. So, what we could be heading into,
and darn it, I sat down here a year and a half, a year ago, and said, this is heading towards
stagflation. It's good for, it's good. All right, let's go back. There's one more sentence.
I promised you I would read here, okay. Okay. In yellow, the big picture,
the takeaway from a slew of recent data is that president Donald Trump
inherited a shakier economy than it seemed and is risking something worse
with aggressive policy moves.
I got to print this out when I'm done because this Axios, Axios, Axios, whatever, Axios,
Axios, to me, that is one of the best segments of five sentences that I've ever, ever seen.
Here, let me pull it back up and show you guys where you can go check this out.
Hats off to you, Axios, Axios, Axios.
Looks like Axios.com. And there's the title the s word just
put an axios s word into uh twitter and i imagine you're going to get that to pull up that's what
we're heading into guys that's what i see happening um look i also want to make a public announcement
i've told you that i would always be transparent 100% with anything that I do that would affect unicorn fart dust, UFD.
I made that promise to you from the very beginning.
I just want to let you know that I am planning.
I don't know if it'll be within the next, I can say confidently, 48 hours.
I can say confidently 48 hours, but it's with Susie's advice and we'll check with her here.
I am planning on buying some more unicorn fart dust, buying unicorn fart dust beans.
Don't base any financial decisions you may or may not make upon what I'm doing, but I promised you
guys that before I ever did anything that would have any impact on unicorn fart dust that I would
let you know. So sometime here in the next 48 hours, I will be making a purchase of unicorn fart dust.
It already is our biggest single holding.
Again, that's just my position.
Don't make any, be responsible.
Don't make any big decisions based on what I'm saying.
But I and Susie, at her advice, I'm going to buy some more beans.
But let's check with the boss upstairs, Susie, and see if she's okay with this.
Are you okay if I buy a few more unicorn fart dust beans to add to our Diamond Hooved collection?
I've been asking you to do that for two weeks now.
Let's start saying over when we're done talking to each other.
If you could only okay she's locking the basement door yeah when did you unlock it sweetheart oh if you could be a
fly on the wall what a wonderful woman you know um hey guys before i forget i need your help
we need your help we need your help okay We need your help. We need your help. Okay. Our
community. Look, if you want me to keep doing duster of the day, which I'd like to do, please.
Okay. We need to grow the list of dusters of the day. It's okay to nominate yourself. All right.
But, uh, upstairs Susie is going to be kind of accumulating the list for us. So send, go on to Twitter, whatever,
look up upstairs Susie, her thing looks like this, whatever that's called, her profile picture,
that's her and her Adirondack chair, okay, and send her a DM with either somebody you nominate,
or if you want to be it yourself, it's okay, right? Tell us about yourself. And then I'll send you a DM.
You can send me a paragraph, but please, I need your help with that.
All right, because we kind of ran out.
We had it on Discord, but now the list has kind of run dry,
and then we didn't keep asking, so I apologize for that.
But I'd like to recognize the Duster.
Or maybe you don't like Duster of the Day.
If you don't like Duster of the Day, maybe I'll do a poll. I'll do a poll when I'm done here. Should I continue doing duster of
the day? This is your community. This is your deal. Okay. Buttercups, dusters, and diamond hooves.
You know what a buttercup is? And we had some other new words. What was it? Uniconviction,
right? Uniconviction. Those of us, we have uniconviction, but,
but, right? And we may have a uniconvention at some point where we all get together.
All right, guys, lots going on. Let's look at the funny of the day.
This is according to our friend Susie.
Did you play that meme I sent you?
Okay, you didn't say over when you stopped talking.
Did you play that meme I sent you?
I was going to do it right now.
Okay, guys. Let's look at something funny. Susie said this. She thought this was funny. So
if you don't think it's funny to go complain to upstairs, Susie, good luck with that. Uh, here
we go. Is this it? Uh, yep. All right. Make sure I got you guys on the right screen, which I do.
Okay. Here we go. Susie always makes me laugh. I tell you, there's nothing as fun as
when Susie's in a good mood. Okay, here we go. Boom. Hold on. This is me. Susie thought this

hooves. I've actually got one of those tools. Okay. All right. Thank you, Susie. That is just
absolutely hilarious. So, all right, let's go on to the comment section. I want to know where everybody's from.
Unicorn, fart dust, dusters, right?
I forgot about the whole, the most important thing.
We flipped the FUD. F-U-D, F-U-D. We flipped the U and the
F to make it U-F-D. It's a big deal. We faced stiff resistance. We fought. Okay. We fought and
fought and fought. You guys have developed this community where we belong, right? And where we fight and we've gone against so many things together, right?
The community still, still in the stiffest, the overall economy, the general markets,
the crypto market, carnage.
I'm hearing people say, I mean, some pretty crazy things about the general crypto market.

Duster of the Day. So yeah, so funny story. Thanks, Jake. Next time you come to the basement,
we're going to lock you down here as well. So quick, funny story. And then I'm going to get
to the comments, guys. But last night I was telling Susie, I'm like, Hey, maybe you can help me with duster
of the day. All I need you to do is keep a list, send a message to Susie. I said, can you help me?
How did I say it? She thought I was asking her if she wanted to be duster of the day. And then I
realized we were confused, but you know what? You know what? You know what guys I want to,
we're going to have a special duster of the day tomorrow here in the basement.
You'll just have to tune in to see who it is. I wonder, I wonder if you can figure it out. Here's what I want to do. Guys, look, look, we're a family. All right. Let me, thank you,
Jake, for the super chat. Okay. Hey, next, I want everybody in the comments to say where you are joining us from so we can feel, right?
Look, it's me down here in the basement.
I think Wednesday might be a better idea, if you know what I'm saying.
Susie's very active this morning.
Now that you said that, that's a good idea.
So I'll tell everyone to please tune in Wednesday of next week
or Wednesday of this week for a special Duster of the Day.
Oh, that walkie-talkie's driving me crazy.
Okay, so Wednesday we'll have a special Duster of the Day.

Good communities, good people, and let's keep it up. Let's keep
doing our best. Like I said, I am going to be buying some beans in the next 48 hours. Mars,

keep it up. Let's do some good, be good to ourselves. You know, that's what it takes. Grit,
discipline, determination. Have a great day. All right. Today, that's what Susie always reminds
me. She'd tell me this morning, just think about today. I'm a warrior. Okay. I just got to be
honest with you guys. I'm a warrior. I've always been a warrior. Somebody who, who, who always is
thinking and worrying about things. And she reminded me, and I'll remind you from Susie,
just look at the next 24 hours, look at the day,
do a couple extra little things.
