Welcome to Brighteon Broadcast News with Mike Adams, the Health Ranger.
Alright, welcome to Brighteon Broadcast News for Wednesday, April 16th.
I struggle with this one.
The calendar has evaded my mind.
I'm Mike Adams, the Health Ranger.
Thank you for joining me today.
I had a lot of positive feedback about yesterday's episode, talking about forbidden cures and DMSO.
And also some other things, phycocyanins from spirulina.
And how DMSO drives these, well, molecules.
Some of them are dyes, like, for example, hematoxilin, which is a blue staining dye that also has anti-cancer properties.
And DMSO drives that into tissues, through the skin, very effectively.
And it cures cancer.
It cures cervical cancer, among other types of cancer.
I discussed it all yesterday.
We're talking about permanent, permanent, quote, remission.
It's a cure.
Not every case, but in many cases, it's a cure.
So if you haven't heard that episode from yesterday, go back and check it out.
But like I said, I had a lot of positive feedback about it.
And also some people telling me some interesting stories about DMSO.
One of our listeners said that when she was at university decades ago, one of the graduate students...
Actually died because he was a smoker and his fingers were covered with nicotine from smoking cigarettes.
And then he got a bunch of DMSO on his fingers.
He wasn't wearing gloves to work with DMSO.
And the DMSO drove the nicotine into his blood at such high levels that it killed him.
And so, you know, a word of caution about DMSO.
It's incredibly effective at...
Carrying molecules and penetrating into the skin and into the tissues, which in my mind brings up a lot of interesting things.
So not only is it highly effective at delivering molecules to tissues, but it could also be, in essence, weaponized.
Can you imagine a globalist using it to deliver vaccines without a needle, right?
Like a DMSO plus mRNA.
Like drives the mRNA into your tissues and you didn't even get jabbed with a jab, right?
So there's that kind of risk as well.
Also, I was checking out some of the DMSO creams that are on the market because, you know, the effectiveness of this is really high.
But every single cream and sort of pain relief product that I could find made with DMSO, every single one had crazy levels of fragrance chemicals.
Which, as you know, fragrance chemicals are highly toxic, cancer-causing chemicals.
And thus, you know, I'm sounding the alarm here that if you buy a DMSO cream or a DMSO product, that you've got to make sure it doesn't have fragrance in it.
If it does, it's driving fragrance right into your tissues, which those chemicals can cause cancer.
So be incredibly cautious.
You want things that are very, very clean and pristine.
In fact, I was doing some online research and talking to people who have some of these products, and they were complaining to me there's just nothing clean in the marketplace.
And so I talked to my team today.
I said, look, I want you to source these ingredients so we can manufacture a DMSO topical product that's great for joint...
Pain relief and so on that has no fragrance in it whatsoever.
Can you do that?
Can you find these ingredients?
And so my team is working on that.
I'm like, I didn't start out thinking that I was going to have to make a DMSO product, but apparently that's the case.
And actually, this is the whole story of the Health Ranger store.
Seriously, this is how it came into existence is I wanted to find like a clean Chlorella Superfood.
And I couldn't find one.
You know, not as clean as I wanted.
And so, had to make it ourselves.
And that became our product called Clean Chlorella.
You know, I wanted a rigorously tested clean turmeric powder.
Couldn't find one in the marketplace.
I was sending them off to labs in the early days and finding high levels of lead.
And I was like, this is crazy.
So, had to set up our own lab.
Had to source our own materials.
Had to create ourselves.
I gotta tell you.
The Health Ranger store, it should be called the Health Rangers store because that's where I go to shop and I develop products there, sometimes out of just a very selfish point of view.
It's like, I just want a clean product.
I want a clean toothpaste.
I want a clean deodorant that doesn't have aluminum in it, you know?
I want a clean body soap.
I don't want fragrance chemicals.
I don't want fluoride in the toothpaste.
I don't want garbage.
You know, I don't want...
Toxins and laundry detergent, etc.
And boom, that creates the products.
That ends up being our whole store.
That's really the real story of how it came to be.
It's me trying to find clean products and usually realizing that we have to formulate it ourselves in order to have clean products.
Just astonishing, right?
So anyway, oh, by the way, we have our macaroni and cheese.
Back in stock.
Ultra clean, lab tested, real cream, all organic cream powder, butter powder, cheddar cheese powder with the quinoa amaranth, rice mixture of elbow macaroni.
Incredible! It's back in stock.
Took us a long time.
So check that out, healthrangerstore.com.
But anyway, I recorded a special report earlier today about more forbidden cures, talking about fenbendazole.
And a little bit about ivermectin.
But there are so many hidden cures out there that the establishment just doesn't want you to know about these natural medicines.
And fenbendazole is one of those.
So I'll have that special report for you coming up.
You'll really enjoy that.
But something really interesting happened to me today that drove home this philosophy of healing and how the body has this natural potential.
To regenerate tissues if given the proper signaling.
And this circles back around to DMSO, which I'll talk about in a second.
But I was walking into my office building on my ranch, and I opened the door and I felt a thump on my left shoulder, and one of these little geckos had just fallen onto my shoulder.
Apparently it was up where the door opens.
I didn't see it, and it just fell onto my shoulder.
Like, oh man!
Got a gecko here.
Now these, I don't know if it's a gecko or it's a little salamander.
When I saw these when I lived in Taiwan, we just called them bihu, which is the Chinese word for what they are.
Maybe a different species there, but I just call them bihu.
So I'm like, hey, little bihu, you know, you don't want to be in here, little man.
You don't want to be inside.
You want to be outside.
And once you lose track of them inside, you know, they're toast.
There's no food for them.
They eat moths and insects and things.
That's why they like to hang out by, like, doors and windows and things, because they get bugs.
And so I'm, like, gently reaching over to just pick it up by its tail so I can put it outside, right?
So I gently pinch its tail, and then I feel a thump, a thunk, almost like a click.
And he disconnects his tail.
The whole tail comes off, and it's in my fingers.
And it's moving, by the way.
It's like, oh my god!
I got a little beehoo lizard tail thing with a mind of its own.
And then the beehoo is still sitting there.
I'm like, dang it!
I didn't get the beehoo.
All I got is this wiggly little tail.
Right? So I set the tail down, and it's still moving.
I'll get to that in a second.
And then I'm like, I gotta grab this beehoo, you know?
I don't want this thing to die inside, so I have to cup it with my hand, you know?
I finally get it, and it's trying to escape.
It thinks, you know, that I'm going to eat it, but I'm not.
I'm not having, like, Bihu kebab.
So I get it in my hand and open the door, and I gently toss it out, and he's cool.
Except he's missing his tail.
Now, and then the tail, I have the tail sitting on the desk, and it's still moving.
And if you think about it, this Bihu made the decision to disconnect his tail.
Now, this is funny.
A lot of people who hear about lizards and salamanders can regrow their tails.
You often think, or at least I used to, you would think that, well, maybe something bit it off.
You know, there was trauma, there was a fight, there was a predator that grabbed the tail and bit it off, but it can regrow its tail.
You don't normally think, hey, this reptile disconnected its tail.
With a thump, because that's exactly what happened.
It was like a click.
It's like click, boom, and now I'm holding this wiggly tail.
This creature made a decision to let go of its tail, and it was able to instantly disconnect the tail.
Now, and again, I was barely squeezing the tail.
I mean, it wasn't me.
I was just like gently trying to pick him up to get him out of there, and he disconnected the tail.
Thunk. Think about it.
In the body of a reptile, which is a much simpler life form than you or I, I mean, hopefully, except for maybe the leadership of the city of London or whatever, maybe they're reptiles.
Maybe they all disconnected their tails already.
I don't know.
That's why you can't see their tails, maybe.
Anyway, reptiles, in all seriousness, reptiles are much simpler life forms.
And yet...
They can disconnect an appendage that has its own blood supply, nervous system, skin, everything.
You know, musculature.
I assume the tail has maybe some little bones in it or something.
I don't know.
I should put that thing under a microscope.
That would be freaky.
Anyway, it can instantly disconnect all that.
Isn't that wild?
And it makes a choice to do that, obviously to escape predators, right?
Because it thinks I'm trying to eat it or something.
So it's thinking, hey, I'll let go of my tail.
Thunk, because I can grow it back.
So there's a signal to let go of the appendage, to literally disconnect in an instant.
It was that fast.
And then there's another signal to regrow the tail.
And I've seen these behoos on my property with partial tails grown back.
Like, a little tail where there should be a bigger tail, you know?
It's like halfway grown back, because growing it back takes time.
I don't know, several days, maybe.
Maybe a week or two.
This thing was like four inches total length, including the tail.
Maybe three to four inches, let's say.
Okay? So, it's going to take time to grow back the tail.
But it has the signaling to grow back the tail.
It's able to just regenerate it on command.
That's amazing.
And that technology in cells, that technology exists in your body, too.
Now, I'm not claiming that you can cut off your arm and have your arm grow back.
That's not what I'm saying.
But wouldn't it be interesting if you could take off an appendage?
Like, you can imagine an old guy with, like, a lame leg, you know, talking to a young guy.
Don't you mess with me, boy!
I'm going to take this bad leg off and whoop your ass with it, you know?
Something like that.
Can you imagine?
Just take off your leg, beat the kid over the head.
I'm going to grow back, you know?
That would make life interesting.
I'm not saying we can do that.
Although that would be really fun if we could.
But, but, you know we regrow our livers, right?
You know we regrow our skin.
You know that the hippocampus in the brain is always regrowing nerve cells constantly at any age.
You know we're regrowing blood cells all the time and bone cells and neurons and all kinds of specialty cells and so many different organs.
We're growing all the time.
Hair and nails and skin and even tendons and whatever.
And what is it that does that?
It's signaling.
A certain type of signal.
And if you've studied anything from...
Dr. Robert Becker and the body electric, you know that all these signals are electric.
And well, I mean, some of them are light, like actual photons.
So there's light and there's electricity.
That's the signaling.
It's not even really chemical so much, although that plays a role.
Certain types of proteins or peptides play a role as hormones or signaling molecules.
But the really powerful signaling is based on light and electricity in the body.
Yeah. And that's why you need natural light.
You need sunlight.
And that's why those infrared light machines, which, and I have one, I use it, are incredibly popular.
You know, because you could get nude in front of it.
You could light up parts of your body that haven't seen daylight since 1965.
You know, depending on whether you were part of the hippie revolution or whatever.
That day on that nude beach, you know.
You get my point, though, right?
So red light therapy is very potent.
Sunlight therapy is potent.
There's actually a healing effect of sunbathing nude to actually get light on your genitalia, to get light on the hormone-producing parts of your body, and to get light, like actual real sunlight, having the light rays come into your eyes,
and I don't mean looking at the sun, obviously.
I'm just talking about opening your eyes on a sunny day and looking around, you know?
Just seeing the world with sunlight.
That is medicinal.
That's healing.
I interviewed Dr. Jack Cruz about this topic.
And, of course, he understands all the signaling systems in the brain and the hypothalamus and how it's all tied into light and photons.
And I also interviewed Greg Braden, played that yesterday, and he talks about the photonic computational system inside the body.
How you have cells...
Deep in your body that actually produce light and are photoreceptors.
So they're sensitive to light.
Yeah. And they're way inside your body.
Why is light a signal for those things?
Well, this mystery gets deeper.
So check this out.
Let me pivot just a little bit here.
I mentioned that hormones, which are...
Basically certain shapes of proteins or peptides.
So peptides are made of amino acids and then peptides are the building blocks of proteins.
And certain proteins can be signals in your body.
So when we talk about hormones, those are actually just certain shapes of molecules, often just peptides.
Well, in the biohacking community, there's a lot of people who use therapeutic peptides.
And I interviewed a person a couple months ago who was really into peptides, and that person gave me some material to look at, and so I've read a couple books on peptide therapy.
And it used to be called biohacking, but now it's just called bioidentical peptide augmentation or normalization, just trying to bring up levels of signaling peptides in your body to a normal level.
Like, for example, growth hormone.
is a very common one.
And men and women both, when they age, they tend to produce a lot less growth hormone, and there are all kinds of effects of that.
And, you know, a lot of aging is actually a signaling issue.
And I don't know if you know this, but RFK Jr., he actually injects himself with, I think, either growth hormone or a precursor to growth hormone.
It's one of the reasons why he has such excellent...
Physical strength, and he works out, and he can do lots of push-ups and everything, even at his age, which I think is in his maybe late 60s, I'm guessing.
So he stays very fit and relatively young in his physical body, but he does that by balancing or augmenting certain peptides in his daily health habits.
I believe it was reported that he uses injections.
So a lot of people do subcutaneous injections of those peptides.
And I don't know about you, but I am not at all interested in injecting myself with anything on a daily basis.
It's like, forget it.
However, there are a lot of peptides that are nootropics or sometimes called nootropics, brain-enhancing peptides.
There are a lot of peptides that are anti-aging.
Some that help with sleep, some that help with libido, some that help with tissue repair and regeneration, etc.
And I began to wonder, just over the last 24 hours, whether these peptides that normally people inject, whether they could actually be delivered using DMSO.
So, of course, I asked Enoch this very question.
Now, you may recall Enoch is our AI engine.
It's done.
It's functioning.
I'm using it every day, and so is my staff.
The articles that are written on naturalnews.com are augmented with Enoch knowledge and writing, and this is one of the reasons why we're able to produce so many articles right now is because Enoch is augmenting all of our research.
Anyway, I asked Enoch, and it'll be available for you free of charge.
It's coming.
I promise.
It's almost ready.
Brighttown.ai is the website.
You can join the wait list there.
I asked it about DMSO as a solvent to be used in the delivery of peptides.
Now, I assume I'm not the first person to think of this.
Other people have probably explored this in great detail, but I wasn't aware of this until just now with this focus on DMSO.
But anyway, here's what Enoch says.
It says that DMSO is a highly polar solvent that can dissolve a wide range of substances, including hydrophilic and...
So, as Enoch says,
property allows it to mix well with both water and lipids,
it an effective carrier for various therapeutic agents.
normally a solvent is really good
Handling water-soluble things or lipids, but not often both, right?
Not both.
And that's the job of soap, is to kind of bind lipids with water and to make lipids solvent in water.
That's what soap does.
Well, DMSO can also function, I mean, different chemistry, but it also does both of those things really well.
And it says here that...
DMSO temporarily disrupts the stratum corneum, which is the outermost layer of the skin, which is the primary barrier to penetration.
So by interacting with lipids in the skin, DMSO increases the permeability of the skin, allowing other substances to pass through more easily.
So it temporarily turns your skin lipids into pass-through molecules.
Where whatever else is on your hand or fingers or on your skin is able to just pass through and go right into your tissues.
Wow. Wow.
I mean, that's...
How have we not known about this our whole lives?
I mean, shouldn't this be taught in high school or something?
I mean, this should be common knowledge that, hey, there's a substance made from trees that can...
Carry things into your tissues without using needles, without using surgery, without intervention, without incisions.
I mean, this is a big deal.
No wonder people are so excited about DMSO.
But my question, and I'm going to do additional research on this, my question is, which therapeutic peptides, like growth hormone or let's say...
Growth hormone precursors or nootropics or whatever.
Which of these peptides that people normally inject actually don't need to be injected?
Because you could treat yourself with DMSO and those peptides.
So I have begun a process of looking into this, and I'm reaching out to some therapeutic peptide companies, purchasing some sample products, and I'm going to do some experiments with this.
And find out how well this works as a carrier.
Does skin permeability, is it altered enough to deliver fairly large peptides into the skin, into the tissues?
And does that equal a subcutaneous, quote, injection of sorts without the needles?
See, I think this could be really revolutionary to anti-aging medicine and cancer treatments, as we talked about yesterday.
And so much more.
Anti-inflammatory medicine, tissue healing, like post-injury healing.
Can you imagine the applications of this in the military or in emergency medicine?
What about emergency rooms?
Because there are some peptides that rapidly promote tissue regeneration and repair.
Well, why aren't our emergency rooms combining DMSO and aloe vera and the regeneration peptides and smearing that on the injury site?
To speed regeneration and healing.
Why is that not happening?
And probably because the FDA and the American Cancer Society and Big Pharma don't want you to know about DMSO.
They don't want you to hear about this stuff.
They don't want you to know that even freaking lizards can regrow their tails.
They don't talk about that very much.
They don't want you to know that you can regrow a lot of your tissues as well.
Maybe not an arm or a leg, but lots of other tissues.
And maybe all that's missing for humans to regrow things like nerves to, let's say, reverse paralysis, possibly the only thing missing is the right signal at the end of the nerves.
And possibly, and this is an experimental concept here, but maybe DMSO could deliver therapeutics to the nerve cells like in the vertebra or something and possibly even reconnect
those
Is that feasible?
Yes. Does it need a lot more research?
Obviously, yes.
But is anybody from Big Pharma researching that?
No. They do not want that.
The FDA does not want that.
HHS has no interest in this.
There are no grants about how to reverse paralysis using...
Therapeutic peptides, as far as I'm aware.
And what about dentistry?
What about dentistry?
Did you know it's just signaling to regrow teeth?
Did you know that?
So, for example, you may not be aware of this.
Very few people are.
But did you know that if you scrape the extracellular matrix from the inner lining of pig bladders...
Okay. It's like a fun family project.
No. Seriously, if you scrape the inside of pig bladders and you get the extracellular matrix material, which is rich in stem cells, and it's known as a biological scaffold, then this stuff regrows teeth in human dental patients.
So, I mean, this has actually been studied in modern dentistry.
And, you know, clinical trials, They apply the pig bladder stem cells to the gums where maybe there's been a tooth extraction, let's say.
And then a new tooth grows back.
And probably it's multiple applications, but it's stem cells.
So it's signaling.
And you're like, what?
I never heard about that.
Yeah, of course you never heard about that.
But if you ask Enoch that question, it's got all the details.
I'm looking at it right now.
I mean, I remember covering this story years ago.
There's a lot of stories I remember covering that have vanished from public knowledge, and they're totally missing from Google.
They're gone because Google is a disinformation engine.
They're gone from all the mainstream AI engines like ChatGPT won't tell you about this.
But this knowledge is in my head, and it's in Enoch.
Because Enoch is trained on all this content.
So Enoch is the engine that is preserving hidden or lost knowledge.
You know, Enoch is like the modern-day digital library of Alexandria.
And that's why I can't wait to release it and give it away for free and put it in your hands, which is really right around the corner here.
Just, I don't know, maybe a week away.
It's going to happen this month, okay?
I mean, we've got it.
We're just building the interface and we just have to test the public interface and make sure people can't hack it, you know, etc.
Make sure people can't screw with it.
So it's eminent.
You're going to have access to all this, but this is where you can find all of this lost knowledge, including knowledge about pig bladders.
Now, seriously, you might wonder, so why aren't they using stem cells in dentistry?
Well, I think in other countries they are.
I think they're doing this in Russia.
But in the United States, oh, it's not allowed.
You're not allowed to actually regenerate tissues because that would break the blue pill.
It would break the matrix.
It would make people realize things that they're not supposed to realize.
Like, we could grow tissues?
Well, what else can we regrow?
They can't have people asking that question.
Or they can't let you look at Bihu and how they can just disconnect their tails on command.
Like, wow.
Alright, so your body is capable of incredible things.
It just needs the right signals.
Think about this.
Signals are the key.
And if you think about how plants work and how essential oils work, it's really signaling.
It's signaling cells to do things.
Because your body, your cells, your tissue is capable of anything.
You're capable.
Of growing a brand new heart and a brand new brain.
You know why?
You know how I know that as an absolute fact?
Because you did it already.
You did it once already.
You grew it when you were in your mother's womb.
You already did it.
And how was that accomplished?
By signaling.
There were signals that said, hey, it's time to grow a heart.
And you know, at first, there's no heartbeat, right?
Because at first, you know, your life starts out as just a few cells, and then the cells divide, and they divide again, and then they start to specialize, right?
And then eventually they start to grow heart-like tissue, but it doesn't start beating until, I don't know, X number of weeks into a typical pregnancy.
I don't know what that is.
Is it like 15 weeks, 18 weeks?
I don't know.
It's a number of weeks, okay?
Maybe it's 20 weeks.
Whatever it is, at that...
At some point, then it starts to beat.
But you grew that.
You grew that from nothing.
Because you had nutrients and you had signaling.
You grew your brain.
You grew your fingers.
You grew it all.
You already did it.
So I don't want to hear anybody say, oh, we can't grow organs.
Well, then how are you here?
If you can't grow organs, then you should be dead.
By definition.
So, yes, you can grow organs.
Yes, your body is capable of it.
Your body grew all the nerves that you have.
It grew it all from nothing, which means there's no reason why you can't grow nerves again other than your nerve cells just aren't getting the right signals.
And this is why the research in Western medicine will never give us the solutions that we're looking for because Western medicine denies the existence of photons in body tissues, denies the existence of electricity in cells,
even though there's high voltage potential across your cells in the aggregate.
But Western medicine focuses on chemicals and physical structure, so they don't see the things that really are the signals.
Fascinating, right?
And related to that, by the way, you know what?
Your olfactory senses really are.
They are detectors of harmonics in molecules.
So something has a certain smell, not because of just the molecule of the smell, but rather the harmonics of the molecule.
The physical harmonics, the electrons of the atomic elements that make up that molecule have a certain vibration.
Certain patterns of their probability clouds and so on.
And it's this combination of harmonics that actually imparts the sensory experience of a scent.
When you smell something and your brain makes it real, understand that you're actually detecting really quantum phenomena in molecules.
By the way, you want to have an amazing olfactory experience and also experience something that is known to promote tissue regeneration?
There's a rare essential oil that I discovered in doing the research on healing my finger, which I almost severed a couple years ago, but it's healed back and it regrew nerves and everything.
I mean, you know, my story of healing my finger is really what I'm talking about today.
Yes, you can regrow nerves, you can regrow blood vessels, tissue, muscle, all kinds of stuff.
I did it!
You know, I'm looking at my finger.
I did it right there.
Anyway, one of the things I used was this essential oil called helichrysum, or H-E-L-I.
Maybe you would pronounce it heli, but I don't want to think that it's like hell.
It's more like heli or helichrysum.
H-E-L-I-C-H-R-Y-S-U-M.
Helichrysum. I guess that's how you say it.
So, I got a bottle of it right here.
Holy moly!
I'm inhaling.
Woo! See, now, that awakens the brain, the mind.
It awakens the reality.
And when you put it on tissues, it imparts tissue regeneration.
So, of course, if I were healing...
Something like a severed finger today, I would use helichrysum with DMSO.
And, you know, look, I can't advocate that for you.
I'm not your doctor.
I'm not a naturopath.
All of this is experimental medicine.
But I'm just saying that if I had a severe injury right now and I needed some real deep tissue regeneration, that's what I would do.
Because now I know DMSO drives these molecules into the tissues.
And helichrysum is known for this regeneration.
So is it possible that maybe helichrysum or some other essential oil or some other combination of regenerative peptides plus an essential oil plus DMSO could cause nerves to regrow and heal the paralyzed?
Is that possible?
Absolutely it's possible.
I don't know the answer to that question.
I don't know what the molecules need to be.
But I believe the answer is out there.
I believe it exists.
I think God and Mother Nature put all the answers right here on this earth, practically right in front of our faces.
Like when you're walking out and there's dandelions.
God's saying, dandelions, you know, medicine for your liver, medicine, you know.
Dandelion leaves, dandelion flowers, dandelion roots, everywhere you walk.
Dandelions is like, how could you not notice them?
I mean, people spend all day, we've got to get rid of those things, you know?
Those horrible flowers, horrible, horrible dandelions, you know?
God is very disappointed in those people.
So he grows more dandelions next door.
He's like, um, dandelions, you know?
I tried to tell you dandelions and you didn't listen, so we're going to grow them in the backyard, the front yard, the side yard, the neighbor's yard, the city park, dandelions.
You know?
Listen, folks, listen.
God is putting dandelions in front of you all the time so that you will listen.
And all other kinds of medicine everywhere, all around you, everything is medicine.
I mean, everything from Mother Nature and God.
In one form or another, it's medicine.
So I believe the answer to curing paralysis, like reversing paralysis in quadriplegics, I believe...
There exists a way to heal that, and I believe it's already on this planet, and I believe it's just waiting to be found.
But it's already here.
And when it is found, a lot of scientists or naturopaths or whoever's researching, they'll probably like thump themselves on the head.
Oh my God, how did we not know this?
It was here the whole time.
It should have been obvious.
It was right here.
So, you know, look.
I'm not here.
I'm not trying to give false hope to someone who is paralyzed.
I'm trying to give you a real understanding of the way I believe the cosmos is structured by our creator.
That we are part of a healing matrix.
I mean, stem cells are in all the animals.
We're just talking about stem cells and pig bladders.
If pigs can grow stem cells and stem cells can regrow your teeth as an adult, what else could they do?
And you have stem cells.
You have stem cells.
You're making it every day.
I mean, some of it's in your own urine, too, by the way, which some people insist is another form of medicine, urotherapy.
So all kinds of different forms of medicine and different forms of signaling.
Are we wise enough to listen to the signals?
That's the question.
And a bigger question is, can we preserve this knowledge?
Before the collapse of human civilization.
Because that's also coming.
Things are getting crazy with Russia and China and the Middle East and Iran and Israel wants to nuke the world, you know, and the U.S. wants to bomb Iran.
And Russia's like, no, we won't let you.
And, you know, I keep wondering, how many more days do I have to finish Enoch and get it all released before the nuclear warheads start falling?
I don't know.
How many days we have to get all this knowledge distributed in an effort to try to preserve it for the benefit of humankind?
I don't know.
I don't know how long we have for our economy.
I don't know human cognition, depopulation efforts underway, war, chemtrails.
I don't know how much time we have.
And speaking of chemtrails, I've got a special video for you on that coming up here too.
So I don't know how much time we have, so I'm in a hurry.
To try to get all this nailed down, get it all organized and distributed and gifted to the whole world for free, open source, non-commercial, no advertisements.
That's what Brighteon.ai is all about.
That's what Enoch is all about.
So thank you for your support.
And by the way, we have a new savings program called, what is it?
Buy More, Save More?
You add more quantity of products and then you get more discounts.
You can find that at healthrangerstore.com slash save.
healthrangerstore.com slash save.
And I think I filmed a little segment on that in the studio earlier today.
We'll play that coming up.
But there's something else I want to play for you.
Now, let me shift gears here.
You know the sample from Dr. Jane Ruby, the chemtrails sample, that was basically plastic sheeting outside under the lanai.
So rain would not fall directly on it, but it was exposed to the open air, and crazy weird fog was rolling in to her house in Florida, and also chemtrails were falling out of the sky.
And remember that we tested this sample, and we found it to be crazy high in heavy metals like lead and cadmium, also very high in, what was it, copper and some nickel.
Really high in aluminum and some noticeable levels of mercury, which is very rare in these kinds of outdoor samples like that.
And then I put it under the microscope and we began to look at those weird diploid eggs or whatever they are.
So let me show you one of those eggs from like two weeks ago.
All right, so that's one image and then I have another image called...
Bioweapons, geoengineering, Florida diploid.
So, showing you those images.
And there are some of these weird little diploid egg things that kept popping up in the sample.
We'll just show you some of those photos.
Well, then you may recall me announcing that I decided to incubate this sample.
Okay? You're like, oh no.
Here goes aliens.
Yeah. So I've been incubating this sample for one week at roughly human body temperature in the dark.
So this incubation is designed to mimic the conditions of human lungs, basically.
Because, you know, we're breathing in this air.
And so I took a look at the microscope earlier today and I found three distinct types of life forms that are now growing.
In this sample.
And I wanted to show you these three.
So the first one is this white, hairy mold stuff.
I don't know what it is.
Some kind of fungi that is very visible with a naked eye.
And here's a photo of it.
And we've got some zoomed in microscopy coming up.
Got some videos for you on this.
And then the second thing is we saw the microbiology growing.
And here's an image of that.
It's kind of like little strings of green and brown-looking connected cells.
And that appears to be either microalgae but probably bacteria colonies.
And then the third thing we found, which is the most alarming, is that these little diploid eggs, they now appear to be hatching.
So here you can see these egg-like structures.
Appearing to hatch something much larger in between, like it's opening up.
The two halves are opening up.
Open the pod bay doors, Hal.
And then out of this is coming some kind of weird cytoplasm, semi-translucent egg-like structure.
I don't know what this stuff is, but I know it's not pollen, because at first when we were looking at this, some people said, oh, that's just pollen.
And I'm like, pollen doesn't hatch, you know what I mean?
Pollen is just mostly protein, and it's not an egg.
Pollen doesn't reproduce itself.
It doesn't undergo mitosis.
But whatever we're seeing under the microscope right now are growing.
They're hatching.
I don't know if that's the right term because I don't know what they are, but they are growing.
And so what I have done is, well, I've kept them under the incubation chamber.
And I'm going to be bringing in some grow lights, too.
We're going to add some photosynthesis to this little nightmare in the Petri dish and see what happens, you know?
We should have, like, a live streaming webcam on this.
Like, watch the monstrosity replicate in real time.
That would be fun.
Like a webcam, you know?
Anyway, I want to play for you, then, this video, two-part video of The Incubation.
Now, of what's happening with this.
The first part is when we started incubating it a week ago, and then the second part I just filmed earlier today is the results of about one week of incubation.
So take a look at this.
All right, welcome everybody.
This is Mike Adams here at brighteon.com with the science gloves on here, and we're going to be beginning a science experiment here today.
We are taking the sample.
Show my microscope screen.
This is the sample from Dr. Jane Ruby from Florida.
And as you can see here, these are some of the weird diploid egg-like structures that we found in the sample here.
And the sample is this plastic sheet that was like a greenhouse covering.
And it simply collected things falling out of the sky.
Chemtrails fall out, fog fall out, whatever.
And we found all these weird egg-looking structures and things that looked like bacteria.
So what we're going to do is we're going to put the plastic in the Petri dish, which also has nutrient media in it.
We're going to add some sterile saline solution, and we're going to place that in the incubator and let this incubate for a couple of days and then see what we have.
So here we go.
We're going to see if anything hatches out of there.
And then if it does, then, I mean, we're going to put it under the microscope in a few days and take a look at it and see if anything's moving.
Okay? So we'll come back in a few days and shoot that segment and see where we are.
Okay, welcome to this incubation update video.
I'm Mike Adams here at Brighttown.com.
So it's been, I don't know, it's been five days or something.
And in those five days, even in the dark, it is coming to life.
So yeah, there's the incubator right there.
And then under my microscope here, I have the actual Petri dish.
And I want to show you some of what we're seeing.
So go ahead.
All this growth is new.
And this is in the water areas.
And you can see that we're starting to get colony growth here.
And these look like...
Bacterial colonies, or you can kind of see more detail there.
And those are absolutely expanding significantly.
Part of this is growing in dry areas, and there we have now seen this mold.
Here we go, zooming in on kind of the mold fuzz.
And I'm going to gently blow on it here.
If I say...
Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.
Then you can see what it's doing.
Alright, so this is all new.
This is all growing.
It's pretty massive.
But this definitely wasn't here when we started this experiment.
So this has grown.
Alright, here's a shot of one of those egg-looking things, which right here, to me, it looks like it's undergoing...
Like mitosis or something.
I mean, maybe after we incubate this another week or so, we're going to have all kinds of crazy life in here.
I would not be surprised if that were the case.
Okay, there it is.
Those eggs are hatching.
Look at that.
That's hatching the blob.
Alright, so folks, that's what we're seeing so far.
Definitely. I mean, one of the main questions was, is this alive?
And the answer is yes.
I mean, it's coming to life, clearly.
So whatever was falling out of the sky, chemtrails, mystery fog, whatever, not only did this test crazy high in lead, it had alarming levels of mercury.
It was high in cadmium.
It was very high in aluminum.
It was also high in copper and some nickel in there as well.
All of those are neurotoxic, but now it's coming to life.
Now, you might say, well, that shouldn't be surprising.
You know, there's mold spores and fungal spores in the air.
I get it, but I've never seen those levels of heavy metals, which means that something is being aerosolized and dropped on us.
And now we have to ask the question, are they trying to start a pandemic?
Did they weaponize something that will grow inside people's lungs?
Incubation chamber, it's dark and it's warm about human body temperature and it's moist like the lungs.
So whatever's growing there would also grow in your lungs if you're just walking around breathing this stuff.
So could this be an attempted respiratory weapon?
I don't know.
I don't have any proof that it is.
But now we have proof that it's alive.
And we have proof that something's hatching out of these weird little eggs.
So what are we going to do?
We're going to keep incubating it and keep the flamethrower handy over here in case we need it.
And I think we're going to add some light to this to help sort of spark some photosynthesis and see what happens next.
Hopefully this won't become like a Stephen King novel, but we'll find out.
I just want to thank Dr. Jane Ruby for providing this sample from, I think it was West Palm Beach, Florida.
And there's a lot more yet to come on this.
So, you know, gosh, stay tuned.
We're going to see what happens next.
I'm Mike Adams of brighteon.com.
Take care.
Okay, so interesting stuff.
I'm going to continue to incubate this and we'll see what happens in another week or so.
Now, I've got some other things to share with you here.
I want to share the special report I recorded earlier called So let's go to that special report.
I think it's about 15 minutes or so, and then we shall continue on the other side.
I did an episode on hidden cures or forbidden medicine, talking about DMSO and hematozylin, talked about phycocyanins with spirulina, and I got a ton of positive feedback about that episode of Bright Tea on Broadcast News.
So if you missed that, I think it's the April 16th or April 15th episode.
I kind of lost track of the calendar.
But you want to go back and watch that because it's filled with extremely valuable information.
And the overall theme is that anytime something is shown to provide a cure, especially a cure for cancer, the FDA immediately jumps to ban it.
Ban any mention of it.
Ban all research on it.
The NIH will ban research.
The American Cancer Society will get involved and send out letters to discredit researchers.
Hospitals will fire researchers who are involved in anything like that.
And it's very clear that the entire medical and science establishment exists to deprive human beings of knowledge of how to cure cancer.
And you know why?
Because cancer has always been their number one depopulation weapon.
You know, until they came up with mRNA, bioweapons injections, and the COVID psyop, cancer was the number one way to kill people off.
And they knew that it could cause cancer with all kinds of plastics, chemicals, with estrogen mimickers, or in some cases, estrogen blockers.
They know they can cause cancer with toxic chemicals and pesticides and also with 5G, electromagnetic radiation, etc.
So they've known for a long time how to promote cancer and also with hydrogenated oils and all the seed oils, the pro-inflammatory, pro-cancerous tissue substances, and then all the fragrance chemicals and the personal care products and the laundry detergents and all that garbage.
It's just cancer, cancer, cancer.
But the reason governments, especially Western governments, have promoted cancer this entire time is because they can't afford to keep paying people pensions and Social Security and Medicare after they retire and stop working.
So the moment people retire and stop paying taxes, well, the federal government wants to get rid of you because now you're a burden, you're a financial burden, in their eyes, on their system.
So they need cancer, and that's why Vaccines have long contained, for example, polio vaccines contain SV40, cancer-causing viral fragments or whatever they actually are, that are known to actually promote cancer.
And that's why the COVID vaccines promote turbo cancers.
And that's why there's sodium nitrite in the processed meats, because it is a cancer accelerator.
All of this is well known.
I mean, even mammograms cause cancer.
They emit ionizing radiation.
They irradiate women's breasts and heart and lung tissue.
Okay? So, yes.
Yeah, they're going to find cancer sooner or later because they're causing it.
And that's why, you know, sunscreen causes cancer due to the chemicals it contains.
And it blocks ultraviolet light, which is necessary for people to generate vitamin D, which is an anti-cancer nutrient.
So yes, they've always covered up cancer treatments and cancer cures.
And then they pretend like they're looking for the cure for cancer.
Here, buy these pink ribbon batteries and pink ribbon consumer goods, which contain chemicals that cause cancer.
It's retarded.
But you're supposed to buy pink ribbon products and donate to the Komen Foundation, which is all, in my opinion, it's all just a...
Like a cancer greenwashing front.
And you're supposed to believe that they're looking for cures for cancer.
No, they're not.
They're burying the cures for cancer.
They are deliberately hiding them.
So, what's the answer to this?
Well, part of the answer is to, of course, educate and inform yourself about all the ways that you can treat various cancers.
And there are so many ways.
There are nutritional...
products and natural molecules from the plant world, from foods, you know, like sulforaphane from broccoli and cruciferous vegetables.
There are anti-cancer nutrients in fruits and vegetables and nuts and seeds and, you know, all kinds of herbs and essential oils.
All that.
And then on top of that, there are all these topical cancer treatments that work, like DMSO plus hematozylin or the phycocyanides from spirulina that I talked about.
I believe curcumin from turmeric has very potent anti-cancer properties as well.
And many of these can be applied or used topically.
And then there are the IV treatments.
And there are some doctors that use DMSO plus the dyes intravenously with a very specific protocol.
So there's all that, all that knowledge, all these different things.
And then there's detoxification and avoiding exposure to cancer-causing chemicals.
And all of these have a big effect.
But what I forgot to mention in my podcast about DMSO, I forgot to mention fenbendazole, or fenben for short, which is another, it's an anti-parasite medication that's been off patent for many decades,
and it's used as a deworming medicine for animals.
It's very common in veterinary care.
And that's why you can buy it over the counter.
You can buy fenbendazole for animals or for pets.
Again, it's a common molecule used in the treatment of dogs, deworming.
And ivermectin, also very commonly used in animal care, ranch animals, veterinary care, pets.
I mean, I owned ivermectin long before COVID because I was giving my dogs ivermectin doses as a heartworm prevention.
And little did I know that my stockpile of ivermectin would become so valuable and so useful one day, you know?
So that's pretty amazing.
But there are very specific anti-cancer protocols using fenbendazole, which also has antifungal properties or anti-worm, anti-parasite properties.
In conjunction with Ivermectin.
And I'm working on making sure that our AI model is trained on a lot of this knowledge.
And you'll be able to access that very soon free of charge at brighteon.ai.
The launch is imminent just a few days.
I mean, maybe a week if the testing takes longer.
We've got the engine done.
We're just building the public interface for it right now and doing some testing, making sure it can handle.
The load, etc.
Even then, it's going to get probably overloaded.
So we're going to have, we'll have a queuing system in place just because of the high demand for it.
But anyway, we are training our AI model on everything about ivermectin and fenbendazole and also DMSO and all kinds of things like that so that it has the knowledge that you need to conduct research with our model on those specific topics.
So that's one thing to do is use our AI engine, which is, again, free, to conduct research, but also do other online research.
And there are a couple of good channels on X that really talk about Fenben and Ivermectin.
And I regret, I don't recall the user-handled names, but I often retweet the more impressive posts about Fenben and Ivermectin.
So if you follow me...
My username is HealthRanger.
If you follow me, then you'll see some of my retweets and you'll see some of those other channels and you can then follow them.
And then also, of course, check out all of our news at naturalnews.com.
We are publishing, I don't know, what is it, 35, 40 articles a day right now, every 24 hours, at least weekdays, Monday through Friday, and then a smaller schedule on the weekend.
And we are covering so much.
Good stuff in terms of natural remedies and hidden cures, how to be healthy, how to detox, what's going on, the censorship in natural medicine.
We cover herbs, we cover nutrients, we cover essential oils, we cover Chinese medicine, Native American medicine, Amazonian herbal medicine, we cover Tibetan medicine.
I mean, you name it.
You name it, we're covering it.
I mean, we are literally like, I use...
AI engines to generate lists of every known nutrient.
And we're doing a story on every single nutrient.
And same thing with every single herb, every single essential oil, every single phytochemical that is known to exist.
We're doing a story on it at naturalnews.com.
And we've been doing this for a couple of months now.
So we have the world's largest collection of authoritative stories.
It's like an encyclopedia of all these stories.
And we have this collection at naturalnews.com.
So you can go there and you can use the search function there, which is vastly improved, by the way, just recently.
And you can search, you can do research on anything you want.
Combine that with our AI engine, and then you've got an incredible research tool to find answers on just about anything.
At least anything related to health and nutrition.
Dealing with cancer, dealing with diabetes, dealing with heart disease, Alzheimer's, you name it.
Anyway, the upshot of all of this, just let me put it this way.
Being who I am, Mike Adams, the health ranger, with all the people I know, all the knowledge that I have access to, and we have a massive in-house research library as well.
I have no fear of cancer.
I have no fear of any chronic degenerative condition.
No fear whatsoever.
Because I know that treatments and cures exist.
And that they have simply been buried on purpose in order to deprive humanity of this knowledge that could save lives.
And I'm sharing this with you because I'm hoping...
I mean, I want to convince you...
To face the future with the same confidence that I'm describing here, and I do want to persuade you into a stance of positive faith and knowledge, knowing that whatever health condition you are dealing with,
there is a solution to it.
There's a solution, and it's probably been buried.
And if you are simply persistent in researching, and with AI, All kinds of amazing new research tools coming online, including our engine at brighttown.ai.
If you are persistent, you will find solutions because they're all out there.
They all exist.
I've even said sometimes, like, just walking out in nature.
If you walk through a forest, let's say, you're walking past thousands of cures, different molecules, molecules in the leaves, molecules in the bark, different Molecules in the soil.
That's where ivermectin comes from, from a soil microbe.
Different minerals in the rocks.
Different proteins in the plants.
Different signaling.
Different precursors.
All kinds of different cures exist in nature, and you're walking right past them.
I am too.
I mean, I'm in the same boat.
I'm not God.
I don't know every molecule that exists in nature.
I can't.
I mean, I only know a tiny fraction of them, but even then...
That's enough to know that every chronic degenerative condition can be cured and prevented by things that exist right now in food, in medicine, in herbs, in nature, in sunlight,
in different wavelengths of light, in oxygen, breath therapy, energetic therapy.
There are so many things.
There are cures for literally everything.
We are living in a world where almost nobody knows any of this because they are kept in the dark on purpose so that they can be eliminated after they stop paying taxes.
So that's the big aha from this podcast.
Cancer is a depopulation weapon.
Knowledge about how to cure cancer is deliberately suppressed in order to make sure that people don't live too long and collect too much Social Security or...
That's what this is about.
The cancer industry is a death industry.
It's designed to profit off of sickness and disease and to shorten the lifespans of people.
And that's why the cancer industry is rooted in toxic therapies.
Chemotherapy, which is poison.
Radiation therapy, which is poison.
Scalpel therapy, you know, surgery, cutting off women's breasts, cutting off men's testicles, cutting out tumors.
It's all like poison, slash, and burn, you know.
That's what the cancer industry is.
And anytime you talk about nutrition, you talk about herbs, you talk about, you know, uña de gato, cat's claw, whatever, anti-cancer properties, you know, the cancer industry tries to shut you down.
Oh, you can't.
You can't talk about those things.
There's no such thing as a treatment for cancer.
They say.
I mean, from the natural world.
All you can do is just die with chemo, you know?
Forget that.
And the people who sign up for that, they do die with chemo.
They get killed by the chemo, not the cancer.
And it's all by design.
And there's so many other things.
Knowledge that should be in the hands of human beings that is suppressed.
And this is why...
I have dedicated my focus for the last year and a half on building this AI system to preserve and distribute human knowledge.
This is the Noah's Ark of human knowledge.
And it's coming out in two forms.
The first form that I already mentioned, brighteon.ai, is just a website where you'll be able to query it for free and you'll get answers.
Now, the answer is there's going to be a queue, like I said.
At least at first, at the free tier, you'll enter your prompt.
You can put in a very complex prompt, which is your question.
And then you'll enter your email address, and then it will email you the answer when it gets to it.
It might be minutes.
It might be hours.
I don't know.
It depends on the load.
As we scale it up, hopefully that'll be able to transition into instant answers.
But we're starting with a queued system.
That's the only way we can start.
I mean, we don't get...
Freaking USAID money, okay?
We don't get DARPA money.
This isn't some front for the deep state.
We don't get free money.
We've got to pay for all this ourselves.
So, you know, it's going to be cute.
But very soon, we'll have the standalone model that you can download for free and run it locally.
And then we're going to be releasing multiple standalone models.
And I was just testing the latest standalone model earlier today, and it has improved significantly.
It's still got some behavior problems.
It's refusing to stop answering right now.
It just keeps going.
Like, okay, enough already, you know?
But that's easily fixed.
That's a common issue that can be fixed with fine-tuning behavior.
But the alignment is really good in the standalone model.
Much better than what it had been.
We've been struggling with this, honestly.
It's been...
I mean, we're like two months behind schedule.
And I thought we were going to be maybe two weeks ahead of schedule, but no, this problem is harder to solve than I thought, and I overestimated the speed at which we could do this, and I apologize for that.
The complexity of this problem took me by surprise.
But anyway, we're almost there, and when we are there, that's going to be this massive catalog of human knowledge that you can use for free.
It's open-source, non-commercial, downloadable, use it locally.
So you can use the web version of Brighton if you want, or you can download the free version, and you can run it locally on a graphics card, a GPU, you know, like NVIDIA, gaming cards typically, RTX, GeForce cards,
that's what you want.
So this is my mission right now, this is my focus, is to preserve human knowledge and distribute it so that all the sensors fail.
So the cancer industry fails to deprive humanity of this knowledge.
And, you know, the FDA fails, the CDC fails, because they're all in the business of disinformation or oppressing knowledge.
So is Google.
Google's in the business of distancing human beings or isolating humans from knowledge.
Google's not a search engine.
Google is like a blindfold.
It's a digital blindfold to blind you from the truth.
And so is Wikipedia.
You know, so is YouTube.
All of it.
And that's why they banned everybody who was talking about cancer cures or saying no to the vaccine bioweapons jabs, etc.
So the answer to this is found in AI.
Open source AI.
And we're very, very close to that right now.
So thank you for your support.
And thank you for your patience.
I'm sorry.
Taken longer than I wanted it to.
It'll be worth the wait.
And we're going to continue to release updated models all year and all next year and probably for many years to come.
So the models are just going to keep getting better and better, bigger with more information.
You know, every quarter probably we'll release a new model is my guess.
And they're always going to be free.
They're always going to be open source, non-commercial, no advertisements, nothing, no surveillance.
It's all right there.
Human knowledge is the way that we survive this, this great reset, this great depopulation agenda, the globalism.
We spread and we decentralize human knowledge.
That's how we survive.
And that's what I'm dedicated to doing.
So if you want to support us, shop at healthrangerstore.com.
And if you want to see our new savings, we've got a lot of products with a savings program where you buy more, you save more.
You get greater discounts by purchasing larger volumes of them.
Just go to healthrangerstore.com slash save.
Just the word save.
S-A-V-E.
Healthrangerstore.com slash save.
And you'll see we have over 200 products.
Buy more, save more.
So in essence, some of our prices are getting lower.
Even as almost everywhere else, prices are going up.
That's because we don't use...
Anything from China, except goji berries, I believe, we pretty much banned China from our supply chain years ago.
So we're not impacted by the Chinese tariffs or Trump tariffs targeting China, let's say.
All right.
Well, thank you for listening.
Thank you for your support.
And there's a lot of exciting news yet to come.
I'm Mike Adams, the health ranger of brighteon.com, naturalnews.com, and brighteon.ai.
Take care.
Hey, before we continue, there was some really interesting news in the tech world today.
The 4chan website, you may or may not be familiar with it.
I've never visited the site, but I've seen a lot of posts from 4chan.
It's been exposed as a total Israeli Mossad intelligence front.
This has been covered.
I've got comments here from Zach Voorhees, the Google whistleblower, and also from Hal Turner.
Hal Turner said, the website 4chan turns out to be run by U.S. Feds and Israeli Mossad, and it was the source of all of the Q nonsense.
That Q, the Q-SYOP, was a deliberate Intel operation.
Yeah, we knew that.
Hence, you know, the term Q-tards.
You've heard that before.
But 4chan got hacked, and somebody got their hands on all of the internal messages between 4chan users because there were some vulnerabilities in their PHP code.
And it turns out that the leaked posts show that Israel has been the source of about half of the posts on 4chan since the year 2014.
And this was designed...
by Mossad and Israel, you know, the Zionists, to stoke the rise of far-right movements and Nazi movements that have been hostile towards Muslims but also hostile towards Israel itself in order to play the role of victims.
Yeah. Right.
So a lot of the stuff that came out of 4chan has just been a total intel psyop.
And a lot of users were just government users.
I mean, the vast majority.
And everybody who posted on 4chan, their web browsers were being fingerprinted, even if they used VPNs.
All their identities were known.
So they use it to bust people that were leaking things.
And they use it to push out the whole Q lie, you know, QAnon and whatever.
Trust the plan, all that.
Which, you know, we talked about that being a PSYOP for quite some time, and even Alex Jones talked about it being a total PSYOP, and a lot of other people did as well.
Anyway, Zach Voorhees commented on this.
He reposted the story, and he said, hey, fun story about 4chan.
The creator, whose handle is Moot, was hired by Google, and Zach says, Worked at Google.
It says, turns out he doesn't exist.
No desk, no code submissions, no badges, nothing.
The whole thing was an intelligence op from the very start.
So that's Zach, and he's been talking about this since 2019.
And he says it was all just total 4chan propaganda, and there was a lot on 4chan that was just trying to lead people down fake rabbit trails.
So be very cautious.
About believing, you know, super-secret trust-the-plan narratives, like, just sit back, everything's going to be fine, and things that say, well, Trump allowed the Democrats to steal the 2020 election because we were going to catch him.
And then, who was it?
Mike Lindell came in, he was like, we got the PCAPs!
The pea captures.
He was like, we have all the data.
It's going to prove that they rigged the election and the Supreme Court's going to overturn everything.
That's what Mike Lindell told me like four years ago when I interviewed him.
He's like, they're going to overturn it by October.
And that was like October of 2021, I think he was saying.
And of course, none of that ever happened.
Mike Lindell didn't have what he said he had.
He was ordered to pay out a multi-million dollar award.
Because he had promised millions of dollars to anybody who could prove that he was wrong.
And it turns out he was wrong.
And the whole trust the plan thing was a total psyop.
Anyway, that's all been confirmed at this point.
That's, you know, that's all done.
So my advice is don't believe anybody who tells you to just be passive.
Sit back.
Enjoy the show.
You don't have to do anything.
We're going to solve it for you.
Yeah. Yeah, nonsense.
Nonsense. All right, shifting gears.
Next topic.
Gold. I don't know if you've been watching gold.
I'm watching it because, well, I'm watching it because really when you watch the price of gold go up, you're watching the total destruction of the dollar.
And gold almost hit $3,300.
It was at $32.91.50, I think.
Almost $32.92.
As I'm looking at it right now, it's $32.89, okay?
Whoa! So it just keeps climbing.
Gold is just skyrocketing.
But really, it's not skyrocketing.
It's just that the dollar is collapsing because we're looking at gold defined in dollars.
So, of course, it takes more and more dollars to buy gold because dollars are collapsing.
Dollars are even collapsing compared to other currencies.
If you follow this, look at the VIX.
The dollar keeps losing ground against the other currencies, and yet all currencies are losing even more ground compared to gold and silver and platinum and other metals.
So the dollar is in a death spiral, and I could do a whole podcast on this, and maybe I should, but I'll just say it quickly here tonight because...
I got to get to today's interview with Marjorie Wildcraft.
Or, I don't know, I might play, I think I'm going to play the Chris Sullivan interview, actually, and we'll play Marjorie tomorrow.
But I need to say this.
It's become apparent to me that people who don't own gold and silver will become enslaved.
And I know that sounds dramatic, sounds hyperbolic, but it's not.
It's really not.
People who don't own gold and silver, who just have their savings in dollars and treasuries and stocks, they're going to lose everything, and they're going to end up on a UBI, universal basic income, that's controlled through a central bank digital currency that will limit what you're allowed to do with the UBI credits.
It will surveil your expenditures, your income sources.
It will automatically extract taxes, if there are taxes at that time.
It will penalize you for posting things on social media that the government doesn't like.
You'll be fined automatically.
And they can limit what you're able to purchase.
So no ammo for you.
No guns for you.
You've already bought one chicken this week.
You can't have any more chicken.
No beef.
You get the idea, right?
No natural medicine for you.
No herbs.
They can dictate it.
And the only people that are going to be immune to that Dictatorship are people who have money outside the grid.
And money outside the grid is going to be gold and silver and crypto, but especially privacy crypto.
Like Zano, which is announcing so many new infrastructure achievements.
And somebody launched a site called ZanoNews.com.
Zano is spelled Z-A-N-O.
It's my new favorite.
I love Monero, don't get me wrong, but Xano is doing amazing things like building something called confidential layer that allows you to wrap Bitcoin in a Xano privacy wrapper so you can move Bitcoin around privately with nobody seeing it.
So it allows you to actually privatize your Bitcoin.
That's amazing.
And there's a lot of other things about Xano.
And I think the website's just xano.org.
Let me confirm that.
Yeah, xano.org.
Z-A-N-O.org if you want to learn about it.
And yeah, I do own some xano because I play with their wallets and everything.
And I interviewed the founders.
I don't know if they're the founders, but the lead developers a couple of times.
And I keep forgetting their names because they're like Russian names, but they're brilliant, brilliant guys.
Anyway, we're actually...
We're covering xanonews.com now on censored.news.
And I don't know, there's something else like Xano Maps.
It's like people are launching this whole ecosystem around Xano.
Anyway, the reason I even mention that is because if you want your crypto to not be confiscated, you need to have it on a private blockchain, obviously.
You don't want crypto that's just out in the open Bitcoin on a public blockchain.
You want to privatize your crypto.
But I would say, first, you want gold and silver, okay?
So just to be clear, I say stack gold and silver first, and then when you have enough gold and silver, then, or if you want the benefits of the portability and the divisibility and the privacy of crypto, and you're comfortable with the technology, then,
you know, check out crypto.
But check out privacy crypto.
I mean, I've used Monero for years, and will continue to do so.
And, you know, I've interviewed people like Ruben Yap.
I do remember his name from Firo, who is in Malaysia, I believe.
And then, you know, the Zano people and my co-host, Todd Pitner, he's interviewed like Epic Cash people.
And we've interviewed other privacy projects too.
But in my mind, what really stands out right now as being the most innovative is Zano.
So this is all going to move very quickly.
And people who don't have money outside the system, to reiterate, are going to lose everything.
The great taking has begun.
A dollar collapse reset is underway.
I think Trump is pursuing that plan on purpose.
I think the tariffs are part of that plan.
And I think that people who are holding dollars are going to lose it.
Now, don't take this as investment advice.
Obviously, that's my standard disclaimer.
I'm not your financial advisor.
There's risk in every asset.
I can't guarantee gold is going to keep going up forever.
Maybe it's going to retrace.
Maybe it's going to drop below $3,000.
I don't know.
But I bought silver at $30 spot on Monday and now it's over $32.
It's like $32.50.
Like I've almost made 10% on silver in one week.
Getting close to that, you know?
It's crazy.
And I'm not price shopping gold and silver.
I'm just...
Trading fiat for ounces of metal.
At this point, I don't even care what the price is.
I just know that dollars are going to zero and metals are forever.
So as much metal as I can get vaulted, which our sponsor offers vaulting services, by the way, let me just mention them.
The Treasure Island Company, metalswithmike.com.
Check them out.
You want a trusted source of gold and silver from Trusted Mints.
They are your go-to team right there.
Metalswithmike.com.
And I heard that that domain is banned in Australia because apparently it's controversial to talk about gold in Australia, which is insane.
It just tells you what a police state Australia has become.
But metalswithmike.com, that's our sponsor, and they will treat you right with an incredible value.
So check them out if you want to get gold and silver.
And if you don't want to get gold and silver, At least get something other than dollars.
Get land.
Get ammo.
Get crypto.
But I beg you, don't stay in dollars, euros, yen.
Don't stay in fiat.
I'm literally begging you, just don't stay in fiat.
Almost anything else will be better.
Even like food or diesel fuel or whatever, land.
But gold and silver are very liquid.
But just get out of fiat currency as much as you can.
You're going to get destroyed in fiat currency, and especially the dollar.
You're going to get destroyed in the dollar.
So again, I'm not your financial advisor, but I care about you.
I care about your future.
I want you to be okay.
I want you to survive this.
I don't want you to end up a slave in the CBDC system where your money is surveilled and everything.
I don't want that future for you.
Financial freedom.
It's going to come from you owning gold, silver, and crypto.
And, you know, maybe a few other assets like land or functioning businesses or oil wells or something that produces, you know, income-producing hard assets in the real world.
If you don't have those things, rethink your position is all I'm saying.
Oh, and now, yeah, here we are.
I'm just watching gold.
It's just like $32.90, you know, just spiking.
Somebody's buying like crazy.
I mean, somebody's panicked buying gold.
Somebody with deep pockets.
You might wonder, like, who's buying gold at $3,300?
The answer is the people who know the dollar's going to zero.
That's who's buying gold.
The people who know the dollar's going to zero.
And that's why the price of gold doesn't matter to those people.
They're telling their investment advisors probably just, get me gold.
Like, at what price?
Any price.
Just freaking dump the currency.
Get the gold.
It reminds me of that line from Die Hard.
Shoot the glass.
Remember that?
Hans Gruber was telling his guy, and at first he said it in German, like, shoot the glass.
It's like, buy the gold, for God's sake.
Just at any price.
Just get it.
You remember Die Hard, right?
Best Christmas movie ever?
If you bought gold when I was talking about this in 2022, you've already made way over 50%.
You've made like 60 plus percent on gold.
And where it's headed next, in my opinion, is going to put a big smile on your face if you own some or if you get some.
Now, the pattern I'm noticing, by the way, Every morning the gold is depressed in price because the U.S. comes online and then the government and the Federal Reserve is selling all this paper gold and driving the price down.
And then every night the price is driven up by foreign markets buying gold.
So I'm seeing this pattern.
I'm noticing this every day.
I don't bother with trying to trade.
I'm not a day trader.
That'll drive you insane.
You'll lose a fortune doing that.
I'm just stacking gold whenever I can.
Getting out of fiat and into metals.
So again, metalswithmike.com Alright, next I'm going to play a Bright Learn AI book review video for you.
I'll pick a special selection for you here and then we're going to go to today's interview with Chris Sullivan today.
Which is about the financial markets.
So it's really important.
And actually, you know, the book I'm going to play for you here, the book review is The Big Drop, How to Grow Your Wealth During the Coming Collapse by James Rickards.
So it's a perfect fit.
So enjoy the Bright Learn book review video and enjoy the interview with Chris Sullivan.

As things get crazy, you're going to want backup comms, so check that out, and enjoy the rest of the show.
Thank you for listening.
The Big Drop How to Grow Your Wealth During the Coming Collapse by James Rickards dives into a fictional yet eerily plausible scene that mirrors some of the most pressing issues of our time.
Rickard's book paints a picture of a dystopia that feels both distant and uncomfortably close.
It's a world where technology and authoritarianism have intertwined to create a society that watches your every move, controls your finances, and dictates your life.
He begins by describing a tiny sensor, a bug, implanted in every American's arm.
This sensor monitors your biometrics, including brain waves and eye movement.
It knows when you're about to wake up and starts your coffee maker.
It's a level of control that feels like something out of a sci-fi movie.
But it's not.
It's a stark reminder of how technology can be used to monitor and manipulate us.
And then there are the Panopticon goggles.
These aren't just for fun.
They're a tool for propaganda and surveillance.
The information screens flash images of world leaders proclaiming economic prosperity and world peace.
But we know it's all propaganda.
The goggles are a symbol of the constant surveillance and the pressure to conform, to not question, to just accept.
Now, let's talk about the economy.
Markets were abolished after the panic of 2018.
What started as a temporary measure to stop the panic became permanent when reopening them seemed impossible without triggering another panic.
Trust in markets is gone, and all investors want is their money back.
The world has been reduced to three main currencies, the dollar, the euro, and the Ruasia, a combination of the old Russian ruble, Chinese yuan, and Japanese yen.
In real life, both the dollar and the euro are still around, but the idea of a Ruasia currency appears to be closer, although under a different name, thanks to the BRICS group, which Russia and China are part of.
There's also the special drawing rights, SDR, used for international settlements.
The SDR is a fascinating concept.
It's world money, controlled by the World Central Bank, formerly the IMF, and administered under the direction of the G20.
It's a tool for control, a way to manage the global economy without the chaos of free markets.
In this dystopian scenario, gold, once a symbol of wealth and stability, has been confiscated and locked away in a vault in the Swiss Alps.
The idea was to remove it from the financial system entirely.
This move was a power play by the G20 and the World Central Bank, a way to control the only forms of money left.
The book references Naomi Klein's Shock Doctrine, a concept that explains how political leaders use crises to implement policies that would be unthinkable in normal times.
It's a chilling reminder of how disasters can be exploited to advance agendas of control and power.
The power elites, Rickards mentions that in this dystopian world,
the U.S. is in a depression.
A new depression that began in 2007 and shows no signs of abating.
It's not a cyclical recession, but a structural issue that requires fundamental changes in fiscal and regulatory policies.
The Federal Reserve's money printing hasn't fixed the economy because the problem isn't monetary.
It's systemic.
The difference between 3% growth and 1% growth is enormous.
Over time, It means the difference between prosperity and stagnation, between a thriving nation and a failing one.
The Depression poses other dangers too, like the risk of deflation turning into outright deflation, which increases the real value of debt and forces companies and banks into bankruptcy.
The Fed wants inflation.
They believe it can reduce the real value of the debt and stimulate the economy.
But inflation is a hidden tax.
A way to transfer wealth from savers to debtors without the political headaches of a real tax increase.
The money illusion deceives everyday investors, making them believe they're better off when, in reality, their purchasing power is being eroded.
The book describes a perfect financial storm brewing, with three headwinds converging.
Currency wars, an energy production slowdown, and a global growth slowdown.
Six times the size of the 2007 subprime mortgage meltdown.
Deflation is a real danger, especially in a depression.
The Fed's efforts to cause inflation have been blunted by strong deflationary forces.
The result is an unstable situation where either inflation or deflation could prevail.
The Fed's dilemma is that they can't control both at the same time.
The dollar is slipping as a reserve currency.
China's emergence as a major creditor in gold power is challenging US dominance.
The book suggests that the decline of the dollar has already begun, and the time to acquire insurance, like gold, is now.
As we wrap up, remember that the world described in Rickard's book is a warning, a cautionary tale of where our current trends could lead.
It's a reminder to be vigilant, to question, and to prepare for the unexpected.
The future is uncertain.
But by understanding the forces at play, we can better navigate the challenges ahead.
This has been a BrightLearn video from BrightLearn.ai on the book The Big Drop, How to Grow Your Wealth During the Coming Collapse by James Rickards.
Visit BrightLearn.ai for more fascinating videos like this one and visit NaturalNews.com for full editorial coverage and breaking news on critical stories that keep you informed and aware of what's really going on.
The economy's tough.
Trade embargoes are underway.
Trade wars.
The supply chain is taking a beating.
A lot of people are losing jobs right now.
So what are we doing to help you be able to afford clean food and high-potency nutrition?
Well, here at HealthRangerStore.com, we've just launched a program called Buy More, Save More.
And if you go to HealthRangerStore.com slash save, that's all you have to enter in, HealthRangerStore.com slash save, you'll see that we have 209 Products on this special program, which gives you an automatic discount coupon code when you purchase a higher quantity.
For example, Health Rangers Hawaiian Astaxanthin right here.
You click on that, and this is your normal savings of 29%, or you can go here and you can buy more, save more.
You can buy 3%, get 5%, buy 6%, get 6%.
We don't have massive margins on these, by the way, but these savings are significant.
And then if you click, grab this deal, then it adds that to your shopping cart and it puts the discount code in there automatically.
So there's your discounted price.
Buy more, save more on all 209 products that we have available on this program.
Everything from chlorella to nascent iodine, concentrated mineral drops, as you can see.
Many, many items.
We've done this for you.
Now, you might ask, How can we do this when all these tariffs are kicking in on China, like 150% tariffs, and so imported products from China are going up in price?
Well, guess what?
We don't import anything from China except, I think, goji berries.
But we've been China-free in our supply chain, almost 100% China-free, for many, many years.
So we are not impacted by these high tariffs from China.
Now, there are 10% tariffs on products from other countries.
And we do source different materials from different countries, just depending on the material.
For example, we get our non-GMO vitamin C out of the United Kingdom because we don't buy GMO vitamin C from China, which is the cheap vitamin C that everybody else sells.
So we have high-end non-GMO vitamin C. And yeah, it's more expensive, but it's not going up in price because we're not hit by the tariff.
So this is why we're able to put together these savings for you and actually pass along It's kind of like the dirty little secret of the nutrition industry.
People getting everything from China.
From herbs and vitamins and nutrients and amino acids and all of it.
Most of it actually comes from China, folks.
So that's going to get very expensive.
But we're able to help save you money.
Buy more, save more.
So check it out again.
It's at healthrangerstore.com slash save and you can scroll down and see everything that we have available for you.
So many different solutions.
Everything from personal care products to here's manuka honey and here's our tooth salt and here's whey protein and broccoli sprout powder high in natural sulforaphane which is an amazing molecule.
You know, so much more.
Food, supplements, storable foods, superfoods, personal care products, home care, all kinds of products available on this program.
Buy more, save more, and trust me, you're never going to see lower prices than this for the future.
Because, well, you know, inflation, the dollar's collapsing, so everything's going up in price no matter what.
But thank God that our supply chain has banned So thank goodness we made that decision many years ago so that our products are not skyrocketing in price even during this trade war.
So yes, you can stay healthy.
You can have outstanding nutrition, outstanding superfoods.
You can boost your preps during this trade war by shopping with us at healthrangerstore.com slash save.
And thank you for your support.
All right, welcome, folks, to this emergency financial interview with the founder of Hyperion Decimus, or Hyperion Decimus, I don't know.
We'll ask him how he describes it.
Christopher Sullivan, who we, this is his return to our show.
We interviewed him once for Decentralized TV.
It was a hit.
People love the information.
He's a portfolio manager of digital assets and much more.
He joins us today for commentary.
Welcome, Chris.
It's great to have you back on.
Thank you, Mike.
Happy to be here.
It's great to have you here.
So how do you pronounce your company's name?
Hyperion. Because it does have Thracian in addition to Greco-Roman roots, there are, you can say, like Apollyon.
For Apollo, you can say Hyperion.
So we kind of shorten and just say HD.
It makes it easier for everybody.
No offense, Mr. Langone.
I'm not trying to take your rights on it.
Home Depot, but yeah.
Okay, no worries.
I just figured high definition.
That's what I thought.
Okay. That too.
We are HD strategies.
They are high def strats.
It's really neat machine learning and combo of alphas.
It's super fun because it's almost like a child.
You get to curate, advise, and optimize.
You know tech real well, Mike, so I'm preaching to the choir, but it's really neat.
Well, we'll put your website URL on screen, HyperionDecimus.com, just in case anybody has any trouble spelling it.
But let me ask you this, and the reason I call this an emergency interview is because over the weekend I was listening to a lot of talk, interviews, and speeches by other world leaders.
For example, the Prime Minister of Singapore gave a really eloquent 25-minute speech.
We basically said, I mean, I'm paraphrasing, but he said, look, we're all going to decouple from America.
We're going to trade among each other.
We're going to use each other's currency.
We're not going to use the dollar.
And we're going to de-emphasize importing and exporting from the United States.
And it seems to me like what Trump has unleashed one way or another, perhaps unintentionally, is forming into a large global embargo of the United States.
Not from the UK or Australia or Canada, obviously, but...
All the rest of the world, which is actually most of the world, is about to embargo the U.S., or at least a soft embargo.
What do you say to that, and what would be the implications?
As a macro guy, I would argue soft is probably the right word.
A lot of these groups are paper tigers.
So long as we are 34%, 35% of the world's economy in the United States.
And then I would tack on Mexico and Canada because we do trade quite a bit with both.
And if you really had a free trade agreement that was reciprocal, I think the resource-rich areas with the right rails and logistics could make the western half of the world kind of completely self-sufficient.
So I think, yes.
They already are trading outside of U.S. dollar.
And who would blame them, right?
The petrodollar has really exported our, meaning U.S. inflation, you know, at least since the early 70s, right?
Or you could go all the way back to Bretton Woods.
So I would, if in those countries, I would be frustrated.
But then at the larger scale, it's also been a requirement.
This is maybe the real, you know, where the...
Pounding of the payment occurs.
The real reality is that as a result of that, those countries are forced into the treasury market to collateralize trade.
And so why would China buy treasuries?
Okay, well, it's collateralizing the interaction with the United States consumer.
So as the bond market has really destroyed a lot of capital all over the planet the last few weeks, I think you've gotten maybe a little bit quicker of a come-to-Jesus kind of moment from other countries that are super solvent,
like a Singapore, where, all right, well, we are not going to maybe want to hold Treasury bonds or any bonds, for example.
Certainly Chinese bonds are probably 50 times more risky than the U.S. bonds.
But we're also going to look to our regional trading partners.
You know, I think the Indo...
Area is very successful, has basically most of the goods most people would need from an ag perspective, and there is some metals as well, where the dependence isn't there.
So I wouldn't blame Trump.
This is the fault of the globalists.
And in fact, this is part of their agenda too, Mike.
So do you think that the actions that Trump is taking here, despite some of the...
What's the best way to describe this?
A little bit of friendly fire damage or something.
But is it actually designed to take down the globalist agenda or globalist control over trade?
It could.
It's hard to say definitively, right?
I'm not in the camp that there's this masterful 4D chess going on.
But I do know that there are the right folks around him that are aware of this.
You can see that the announcements are very much a negotiating tactic to bring people at the table.
So I do think it's perhaps a 4D way of getting out of the globalist system.
But it's so intertwined.
This is not something that's going to happen overnight.
I think it could take a couple of years.
It could take even 20 more years, right?
Yeah, right.
And that's just the reality of how entrenched everything is.
Yeah, because it's really interesting.
Trump wants manufacturers to set up factories in the United States, and some are, like NVIDIA just had a big announcement this morning, right?
Saying, you know, they're going to put hundreds of billions of dollars into U.S. manufacturing of their microchips, which is great.
I'm a customer of NVIDIA.
I spend way too much money on their hardware, you know?
But their gear's great, Mike.
You know that.
Yeah, it's worth every penny, you know?
It's not like you add water and it pops up, right?
I mean, these things take years to build.
And then my big question or criticism of this plan is I don't see that there are millions of skilled, ready, willing, healthy Americans ready to work in factories.
I mean, I don't see that.
I don't know how that happens.
Do you have any ideas on that?
You know, I have a little hope that where there's a will, there's a way.
But if I'm in that camp, like NVIDIA, for example, I'm not as concerned with the filling of the roles, per se, from a skilled labor standpoint, although that does matter.
I'm more concerned of labor costs with respect to insurance, general liability, potential union exposure.
There are huge regulatory concerns of being able to do that.
In-house and outhouse councils do I have to have to get this thing going?
And all those have to be factored in.
So equal to getting a commitment for investment, which unfortunately for our sake may just be a political move, Mike, to be very frank, I'd love to see...
Going in tandem with that material deregulation to make it easier on small businesses to become large businesses and then for companies that have offshored a lot of their manufacturing to have a more seamless process.
In fact, you know, you could even make it sort of a bonded type process where they can raise equity and or debt to be able to do it faster.
So I don't think anybody is really thinking of it in a capital markets perspective.
As much as they should, nor are they really thinking of it in a gross cost perspective.
I see.
And we are aware that a lot of these, like they were last administration, Mike, a lot of these are just commitments.
So NVIDIA is probably not because there is real strategic benefits to doing that here and not just, if you're just in Taiwan, that's probably not good either.
So every big company that can afford to do it should diversify their manufacturing base.
Yeah, well, yeah, absolutely.
But what you just said, isn't this, this is really breaking globalism.
It's fun.
Right, because, and look, I think globalism went way too far, right?
I think that for the U.S. to send, like, chickens to China to be...
Processed there and frozen and shipped back.
It's like, really?
We can't process chickens in America?
Or broccoli?
Or whatever?
That all seemed really insane, but it was based on this ultra-cheap transportation by ocean freight with relatively stable ocean...
You know, sea lanes, right?
Basically defended by the U.S. Navy.
Well, those sea lanes are breaking down in the Red Sea and the Suez Canal and a lot of conflict over what's happening in Panama right now as well.
So is Trump on the right track to bring a lot of things back home given the less secure access to sea lanes?
I do think that that is a net benefit.
And I think large pools of capital are identifying.
It's funny you mentioned Panama.
That actually could be another good location for manufacturing.
If we actually did just kind of take over over the past five or ten days, there's a lot of synergies that we should have with Latin America that I would explore further if I was Trump.
And especially in Mexico, you actually really do have very skilled labor.
Absolutely. Overarching, I love the intent.
The modality, I'm a little critical of because I'm maybe thinking of myself more as a gentleman.
But what he did end up doing, I hope on purpose, was zeroing in other trading partners of the United States on, wait a minute, China's the bad guy, right?
And there's not really any free trade because if America's getting charged 125, 85, 250% to ship our stuff, well, what...
Why has nobody gotten in the way of that?
Why has no one negotiated this over the last three decades?
So I think it brings forward into everyone's consciousness the reality of the global system being an export of wealth wherever they're going from and then to, and then they make money three ways from Sunday, owning the entire supply chain and logistics chain from both countries.
Let me bring in this kind of counterpoint on that and see what you think.
So the U.S. has been mostly exporting currency, you know, currency and debt in exchange for goods.
And of course, the U.S. exports a lot of services as well, but I'm not going to include that in this thought experiment.
But let's say the U.S. is trading China.
The U.S. is giving China treasuries, you know.
Dollar debt, IOUs, and China is shipping us physical goods, lots and lots of physical goods, right?
So China ends up holding debt and currency, and the currency is debt, and we end up holding all these physical goods.
That causes a trade imbalance in physical goods.
And then Trump attacks the trade imbalance, and he calls that a tariff that China has placed on us.
So like the 67% tariff that he said China was charging.
Actually isn't a tariff per se.
It's a trade imbalance calculation, right?
But how can you blame China when we're actually kind of ripping them off?
I mean, like, we're sending you debt and you're sending us, you know, computers.
That seems like we're getting a good deal.
I agree with that part of it.
Just not everybody is far down the path as we are as debt is negative money, Mike.
Yeah. When they entered the World Trade Organization, that was the easy entree.
And in literally financial terms, these are assets.
You can lever them, in the basis trade case, 100 to 1, which we can discuss on how that's kind of blown up a few trillion bucks over the last few weeks.
So I think this is a different picture than when they didn't have their own central bank.
They just entered the WTO and, oh, well, okay, we buy treasuries.
We're getting some kind of return in dollars.
We need that to collateralize the trade.
Okay, now we have an imbalance.
But really, I think there's a political side to why China did that as well, not just within America's relationship, but their own.
They needed to employ people, Mike, because the regime doesn't exist.
That, I think, we could see this American-style revolution there.
Oh, really?
It's just out there in the ethos, right?
Like, these people are more oppressed than most, right?
And now they see the wealth build for some.
They're literally ghost cities all over the country, right?
Yes. And you've now got this, well, wait a minute.
I'm not moving further up from, okay, farm to three-bedroom condo.
And now my banks are wiping out my capital, which you've seen plenty of that over the last couple of years.
And I think you run the risk.
I don't know what the percentage of Delta to instigate this response from the populace there, but I do think it's possible.
People aren't really taking that into account, that you could see a regime change bottom up in China as well.
So this tactic by Trump of really singling out China for very steep tariffs, I think it's over 150% now when you add it all up.
Coming into the U.S., that...
Maybe Trump is thinking that this could spur a social revolution in China.
It could be one of the parts of the calculus.
It's just from me observing the macro effects and then following capital flows, which capital flows can kind of speak to at least possibilities and probabilities into the future.
And it became self-evident to myself and my team that, hey, you know, well, maybe, you know, if Europe's now super behind, but not as bad as China, and maybe they wake up and then the Europeans grab their balls and wake up too.
All of that's possible.
It's not out of the realm of occurrence even this year.
That's interesting.
You know, along those lines, I saw that Germany and France are now begging to repair Nord Stream and get cheap gas from Russia in order to stop the plummeting of their industry, which, of course, you know...
I talked about that.
I'm sure you did, too, three years ago.
We're like, you're done.
If you don't get energy back, you're done.
And now they want Russian gas again.
They also need fertilizer.
And then you probably are also aware, Mike, they've been burning low-grade coal in Germany as a replacement.
Right. And forests.
I don't know the exact multiple, but it's multiples on high-grade coal in terms of so-called carbon output.
I'm not a polluter, but...
Carbon dioxide.
It's not a pollutant.
Yeah, right.
Exactly. So I think it is...
They definitely did that self-inflicted, Mike.
That was to pulverize the economy of Germany, much like a Versailles Treaty did after World War I. But it is very hilarious and unfortunate for the constituency in the EU and Europe and France and UK in particular.
They're paying thrice for stuff that was already theirs.
Yeah. Stuff that's in the ground that they just refuse to touch in their own countries.
All right.
Let me ask you about four asset classes here.
So this is going to be a four-part answer, I suppose.
But in light of the, you know, really this chaos in global supply chains, this collapse of trade with China or this imminent collapse, let's say.
And a lot of...
You know, a lot of raw materials and China's blocking rare earth minerals, etc.
Let's talk about the four asset classes.
First, crypto.
Bitcoin has seemed very resilient in the face of this.
Gold then, you know, so crypto and then metals.
Gold has been skyrocketing and still above $3,200.
Silver kind of lagging.
Let's talk about stocks, which are taking a beating, but it's up today.
And then let's talk about treasuries.
The debt market.
So on each of those four, how do you expect things to play out if this China trade war continues?
Let me preface with what does matter the most, and that's the bond market.
Ladies and gents, the bond market can nuke capital faster than anything on the planet.
And unfortunately for all of us, the total credit derivatives on top of the bond markets, roughly 4.2 to 4.3 quadrillion.
Right. That's lots of zeros.
And then when you look at things like, well, shit, I can buy Caterpillar stock down 30%.
It might go down 50 more, but at least I own a piece of the company that's going to be needed forever.
You know, I just...
We'll just remind people that the volatility of equities, which, like you said, Mike, was actually 4.6 intermediations to Bitcoin's 1.4.
Oh, interesting.
Extremely resilient.
Just matter not when compared to the bond market, because there's, you know, 200x the amount of capital in the bond market than there is in the stock market.
And treasuries...
Treasury rates are creeping up.
I think they're over 4.5% right now, right?
Yeah, they've had some humongous individual sellers.
And China's largely been out of the treasury markets.
Basically from 2015 to now, they've been net sellers constantly.
So they're not our largest debt holder by any stretch.
And I think, unfortunately, for U.S. A lot of exposures coming in target date funds, 401ks, money market mutual funds.
And so there's a lot of maybe non-transparent exposure to the treasury markets that U.S. investors are maybe deflected from being aware of.
But let me go back to what you said first.
So Bitcoin, because of its scarcity, that's really coming into play here.
Not to say it can't puke.
And make another new low around 67-ish K. But the fractals retested previous highs from previous cycle.
There's enough pulled off exchange.
We actually have, Mike, less than 13% of supply is even available to buy now.
Oh. Interesting.
While there is, you know, there's futures, there's papers, shorting, et cetera, et cetera, options, paper Bitcoin and ETFs, paper Bitcoin.
Fine. But when push comes to something, you're seeing it in gold.
Almost infinity paper gold, yet it's still ripping people's faces off going upwards.
So I think you could see where the historical relationship, gold has about a nine-week lead to Bitcoin.
And if you draw the chart out, Mike, you can see the correlation.
So if Bitcoin has the potential to follow gold's lead, gold might cool off a little bit here in the short term.
And then two, silver is interesting because...
It looks very forced lower every time it rallies, Mike.
I think it's a very unnatural price fractal in that chart.
I was a buyer on the pullback of palladium and copper.
I think those are undervalued here.
Yes, clearly.
And palladium has a lot of uses.
So does lithium, actually.
Lithium should be used to create energy, not to store it.
And that's a whole other podcast, Mike.
You're an expert on, not me.
So I think those offer kind of deep value plays in the space.
If you're all allocated to gold and you obviously don't punt, maybe add on a pullback, but putting a new fiat.
I'm sorry to interrupt, but copper, I just want to point out, I could not understand why copper was falling as all these companies were announcing new data centers of hundreds of billions of dollars.
They're going to need copper to make all that stuff and aluminum.
Whenever you get these big standard deviation moves, these panics, right?
We call liquidity one events where everything goes down all at once because people are not very bright or not very strategic.
Then you go, oh, hey, what do I know has some kind of inelastic fixed demand over the next five, seven, whatever years?
Well, copper and silver sure as hell are in that field.
So I would almost always be buying.
Local oversold conditions in those because the bang for the buck you're going to realize later is a lot higher probability.
Absolutely. And then just to move from Bitcoin press mills to stocks, Mike, stocks did an absolutely beautiful retrace almost to the point on the S&P of where the uptrend that's held the rally from 22 lows,
I think it's 48.63, I don't have it right in front of me, without violating that trend.
So what I always do when I'm analyzing price, and everybody feel free to try and replicate or copy this, we want to kind of set up three scenarios.
You can call it bull, bear, base case, whatever.
But you just want to define things in what can possibly happen in the near term.
So if we can count this as a just correction within a bull market, it literally went to the exact trend change pivot and didn't change the trend yet.
Huh. Interesting.
So the quote unquote bullish option would be that was a correction and that maybe the market makes a minor new high over the next two to four months.
And when we spoke last, I kind of alluded to downside materializing near term.
I gave it a couple of months and it was like four days and then it started happening.
So I do think timelines are pulled forward.
Time is actually moving faster and ready to change terms now, too, which is.
Again, another podcast.
So that's the bullish view.
It's like a 6500 kind of target is out there.
What has to happen to maybe get over that is get above.
There's a confluence between like 56 and change and 5700 and change on the S&P.
It's also big resistance.
So it will react when it hits that resistance and probably pull back.
If it doesn't make a new low, then it's got room.
To the upside.
And then the bear case, which is perhaps what's most on everybody's mind, is that we are a day or two away from completing a bounce and we roll to take out that 48.60-ish low to keep running in a bear market.
And then there's kind of the base case, which is why I call this the base case.
People need to understand markets were designed to destroy money.
They're not designed to make money.
Right? They're designed to destroy capital.
So what is the path?
I mean, yeah.
You're going to have to explain that more.
Well, Mike, what's the stats on accounts?
Somewhere between 70% to 90% of all wealth management, personal trading, accounts, hedge fund, whatever, lose money every year.
Not on purpose, though.
Well, obviously, no one loses money on purpose unless you need tax write-offs.
But that's just the nature of the beast, right?
The middleman, the globalist who own exchanges.
And deal securities and then warehouse them and our transfer agent, DTCC.
These are all globalist institutions.
They feed off people reacting, right?
Yeah. So it's not because they want to make everybody wealthy.
In one sense, okay, we get defined benefits to then force all the risk on you, the consumer, and call it defined contribution plans and put everybody in programmatic trading within 401ks, which allows Market makers, banks,
etc. You're the buyer of last resort and the greater fuel when an algo runs from 330 to 4, rebalancing all the holdings in 401ks.
And every two weeks, there's new capital going that they feast on.
All of that was engineered on purpose, Mike.
So that's kind of explaining markets are designed to destroy capitalism.
Capital destruction or destroy capital, which is a feature of capitalism.
Capital destruction is a feature.
Of true capitalism.
So noting that is a backdrop for the base case.
What kind of nobody is expecting, and this is my personal view that's possible, is for months of sideways chop with high volatility.
Everybody's, oh, it's a bear market.
Well, when everybody's saying that, it's highly probable it's not because bear markets materialize when no one's expecting them.
So I'm just giving you three scenarios.
That the market could do near term.
And, you know, you can assign like a 30, 40, 40 kind of probability to it.
I do think even if the market does rip, that may be the final high of this cycle.
Really? Yeah.
Yeah. We need to see like whatever Trump does now that's awesome.
The lag's two or three years.
So we can easily go into a six to 12 month bear market to cleanse what hasn't been cleansed.
While I've been alive, Mike, and most likely while you've been alive, too.
Yeah, well, it harkens back to the subprime mortgage collapse bailouts, right?
So 2008, and I think all of us knew, all of us who understand Austrian economics anyway, we knew then that the bailouts were just going to set up something far worse to come in the future.
But is what Trump is doing now, is this going to be the giant, you know, the cleansing brush fire that takes out all the, you know, all the trash and leaves us with a healthy forest to grow again?
I hope so, Mike.
It's an extremely violent and painful transition that will occur.
I'm ready for it, and I don't really care the net present value of my so-called net worth and fiat.
Whatever. Whatever I have to go through to get through it, great, fine.
Because the longer this rubber band gets pulled, the worse it's going to get for everybody.
So I think being able to, the features that we have now from a technological standpoint, you can opt out into physical precious metals.
You can opt out into digital assets, both Bitcoin and privacy tokens, and even stable coins to a large degree.
Which have nuances that are super interesting.
You know, in 08, where could people go?
Right? Most people have been shied away from gold.
They still are now.
And most people still don't know how to get Bitcoin.
Right? Or Monero.
Or any of those.
Yeah. Okay, so let me pivot slightly.
Because over the weekend, I saw Ray Dalio and Mark Faber both said some...
Pretty big things.
Dalio said that Trump's moves really threaten to break the global economy.
And, of course, that's been repeated by other world leaders, perhaps as attacks on Trump.
But then Mark Faber said that all the Western fiat currencies are going to zero, you know, eventually, right?
They're almost there, Mike.
Since 1913, you mean?
Yeah. Oh, since 71, since 2020.
50%, 40 and change since 2020.
But like Mark, in all seriousness, look at the yen.
How many yen is it per dollar?
And what was it in 1989?
There's no fiat you can hide in.
Right, right.
That's true.
So I would have liked that.
I did see both of those statements.
I would have liked it said, Trump has catalyzed an awareness of the You know, impossible situation we have in bonds and fiat.
That's a more truthful statement.
So how far is he going to push this, though, is the question?
Yeah. I can't.
I don't know.
But I hope to where it all destroys itself.
And the implications of that, though, among those who are not prepared.
Look, most people own everything in fiat.
Everything's in fiat.
Aren't they going to get hammered hard?
Yes. I mean, you know the answers to those questions.
I've been listening to you for 10 years, of course.
You know the reality of that.
Yeah, it's uncomfortable, right?
So what Ray Dalio is saying triggered, right?
It's because we were constantly bailing out the system in many different ways than just, here's TARP.
Hey, Mr. Paulson, here's $765 billion.
You and Ben Bernanke make sure the ATMs open up the next day.
Okay. Well, and then he was begging.
He was literally on his knees begging Pelosi, by the way, for that.
Now, fast forward, that was a license to print, right?
You've got 14 Magic Money computers.
You've got USAID funding the own invasion of America.
And you can't even count the amount of fraud, whether it was the stimulus money or SBA.
It's just too far.
So if we don't want to just kick it another whatever amount of years, if they QE and the Fed comes in, they'll buy maybe six to eight months.
Because every time they've come in since 08, whether it's 2012, 2016, 2018, August of 2019, March 2020, 2022, every time they've done it, Mike, It's just lessened the impact.
So, you know, last time it was eight, nine trillion.
It'll have to be 15 trillion.
And what do we want to bankrupt four generations from now?
No, I don't want to.
And OK, we'll take some short term pain.
Bring it.
We're like 20 percent through it already if we just started it.
So then let's talk about for the people listening who understand that fiat is not the place to be.
Many of them are trying to decide things like, okay, how much gold should I have?
How much Bitcoin should I have?
How much land should I have?
Should I buy treasuries?
Whatever. And of course, just as a disclaimer, we're not your investment advisor, so do your own research, get your own experts, make your own mistakes.
It's going to make mistakes because you learn.
Yeah, right.
How do you think I got so good, Mike?
We all made mistakes.
We all have expensive educations along the way.
How do you walk somebody through this process of the mix of assets that are not fiat?
So I try to just thread a peaceful needle, as I like to say, right?
When you look at real estate, there's a lot of ways to subdivide that, to use a real estate term.
Not all real estate's equal, right?
So from an allocation perspective, I would first separate Your homestead and look at that and focus on the prepping elements of that homestead and make sure you've got all that covered before it's, I'm buying raw tracks of land or potential farmland,
or I'm buying into equity of a hotel or a gas station.
So it's not a one-size-fits-all answer, Mike, to be very humble and honest.
But I think when you look at probably one of the most successful investors of all time, much more successful than Warren Buffett, Peter Lynch.
How he looked at portfolios was 25% cash, cash equivalents, 25% commodities, gold, 25% land, and then 25% dividend-paying equities, right?
That's a great sort of top-down starting point.
But I think the reality of the perilousness of the current situation, people need to understand, okay, whatever I have in treasuries or in equities, That's subject to two humongous things.
One, utter devaluation from a huge QE in purchasing power terms.
And then, perhaps more importantly, a great taking where they just confiscate it through bailing.
I don't think that that's possible unless they somehow oust Trump as well as the entire cabinet and administration.
They're not going to let that happen.
But since a legit Jedi, like he knows what he's doing.
He didn't even want to do it, Mike.
You probably know the whole story.
They begged him to.
Disinterestedness is unique for leaders, and I think he's perhaps one of the best we've seen in modern times.
And he gets it.
Everybody knows what's going on, and I don't think the globalist rollout of that is probable if that administration's in charge.
But within real estate, I would separate the homestead and food production farmland.
I think it's important to have both.
Whatever the matrix is of that, because real estate could still be confiscated.
You don't pay a property tax, they come take it.
They want to do a highway, they eminent domain it.
You're on the bad boy and girl list, they come shoot you, like they've done in Bundy, etc.
It's certainly not safe from a valuation perspective.
In my opinion, High for multi-generations in real estate in a per square foot price was already hit.
Oh, that's interesting.
Now, so you think that real estate is going to slide everywhere?
Or are there certain areas, like where I live in Texas, everybody wants to live here because of Elon Musk and Tesla?
Mike, everybody always says that every cycle.
Yeah. Now, when you're putting it into an aggregate chart to get a, here's the...
The median of US price per square foot, that's what I'm going off of to know that we're now in a downtrend.
So will that market go down 25% versus 70%?
Sure. Right.
Okay. But you still only have a willing buyer and seller to transact.
So I think land holdings and homestead holdings should be, this is in my family and portfolio forever.
If it's not meeting that standard, Try to liquefy that immediately.
Same if you own hotel interest or multifamily or strip mall or whatever cash flow real estate you have.
Maybe make sure your leverage ratios are kosher.
You've got reserves.
Because how part of the great taking will materialize is all the bonds that people think are credit lines or mortgages, they can call all of those.
Right. Commercial real estate is about to see a lot of that, I would imagine.
Well, you had $300 billion.
In the last 15 days, go bye-bye.
Wow. Speaking of hundreds of billions, well, actually trillions, the U.S. government is going to have to refinance, I've seen, $9.5 trillion later this year.
Five by June, Mike.
Wow. I mean, this is going to get so fun.
Yeah. So, I mean, nobody in their right mind is going to buy a trillion dollars in U.S. dollar debt for 4.5%.
I mean, really?
So who's going to buy all that debt?
Historically. So let's talk about two permanent buyers of it, right?
Pensions, insurers, and then effectively large hedge funds, right?
So let's look at the large hedge funds side because I'm sure your listeners have seen the so-called basis trade.
Let me walk you through the construction of that.
It's not...
The problem with the Wall Street periodicals and even Fox, they put out these headlines and they're just patently false.
So let me kind of undermine their hyperbole and propaganda and give you facts.
What is the basis trait?
It's as follows.
All right.
You can buy a treasury bond and certain, whether it might be Goldman, might be CME, most...
Places will allow you up to 100x leverage because it's backed by the full faith and credit, blah, blah, blah.
And so I buy a treasury bond, then I go to the futures market.
The natural state of the futures market is a condition called contango, where as you go further out, these are monthly, quarterly, and yearly contracts, the interest or expense gets higher, right?
So the basis is arbitraging the delta between the price in the future versus The price now.
So hedge funds can buy a treasury bond, get that four and a half, lever it.
30 to 100 is the typical leverage ratio.
And then take the money they borrowed to short to extract the basis.
Well, the fun part about volatility is that most people don't factor for it properly.
And so what happens is the bond price tanks, right?
Which affects that contango price because now the price going forward declines.
And then Because the price of what you own went down.
Interest rate went up, which technically would be good because you're getting potentially more interest.
But the problem is you collateralize based on the price when you bought it.
Price goes down.
Your leverage ratio got all out of value and you get margin called.
Right. And poof, there goes $3 trillion.
So that's what happened.
I think it was like April 4th-ish, plus or minus.
This also happened on the yen.
In the fall, in late summer of 2024.
So that's the basis trade.
And then what you'll see from the Dalios and the Mark Fabers and a lot of really bright peoples, they say the following.
Liquidity has dried up around the planet and we've got bad liquidity conditions.
The Fed needs to step in for liquidity.
What they mean is the following.
That two standard deviations from bid and ask.
Bid and ask is in an order book and it's measuring who's willing to buy and sell.
Close to the money of a price set that day.
It's really material in the bond market.
And so most of the time, Mike, when they're saying, oh, there's no liquidity, they're looking up and down an order book, two standard relations from bid and ask, and they're seeing it thinned out is the technical term for it.
And right now, I would say it's dropped like 70%.
Wow. And that's logical because you're just like poofing capital, right?
It's just blowing up.
So, even if investors did want to buy and sell, they don't have the capital to do it.
And that is a very, very real condition right now.
Yeah, and, you know, it reminds me of long-term capital management back in, I think, 1997, except, you know, private fund placing currency bets, I believe, involving Thailand and Russia, if I'm not.
Yeah. So, they miscalculated.
Things shifted.
Their leverage then caused nearly the collapse of the entire global debt system.
Yeah, the Fed stepped into a hedge fund.
Yeah. Right.
That's about to happen now, too, man.
But who's got the exposure that's going to have to have the bailouts now?
Is it the banks now, or is it other large funds?
You know, recently I don't know the bank's full exposure like end of quarter, so I don't want to misspeak, but they definitely have exposure, both from the credit default swap and they're the one issuing the quadrillions of derivatives, Mike.
So they might not have that basis trade exposure that's historically pension funds, insurers and hedge funds, but they absolutely have the derivatives on that that are like 200 times leveraged, right?
You know, six ways from Sunday, I think.
So yes, banks, I don't have the math, so I don't want to misspeak in front of the audience.
I definitely come back to you with actuals.
But effectively, how I view it, the six banks that own shares of the Federal Reserve, they're just going to cover it up.
So maybe there's an iteration where the central banks, you know, come in and...
Turn everything off and then confiscate and do a huge bail-in.
I just don't think they can materialize that with Besant and Trump.
And certainly maybe not in the next couple quarters.
They're going to try it in Europe first, I think.
So would that qualify as part of the great taking then?
Yeah. And in the great taking, do you think people will lose their bank account?
Deposits? Or the deposits will be turned into shares of the bank that you can't redeem?
You know, most of these iterations of these takings, and you're familiar with Mr. Webb's work, I think the best extrapolation is the savings and loan crisis, right?
In the 80s, yeah.
Yeah, through the early 90s.
What that was...
Was a change of legislation, literally a couple lines.
And then all of these banks that were doing commercial and developmental loans, mainly in the Rust Belt and in the South, were instantaneously bankrupt because they claimed that their loan, even if it was good, was now not good.
And so that was a way that they confiscated not just the assets of the creditors and the debtors of that instance.
In the case of the banks, The creditor and then the developer in the case of the debtor, but then they took the actual material business line of issuing loans to real estate developers.
That was a version of great taking, much like 1933 when they confiscated wealthy people's money via confiscating the trust system, which was over a holiday weekend.
The same time that they made gold illegal, they did a bank holiday taking at that point for accounts that were a million bucks and above.
Wow. Wow.
Okay. So this brings us to the self-custody question then on crypto and gold.
So I believe you're an advocate of self-custody in both cases.
Obviously. Yeah.
You have to be.
On gold, it's harder because it weighs so much.
Yeah. Right?
So I was talking to one of our clients today, Mike, and he's like, oh, man.
You know, I really have a hard time buying gold at this price.
And man, I've got like vault worth, right?
That's a lot of gold, man.
Right. Good.
Good. You've done well and you've got to say, but it's like, it's not enough to put in two go backs, which is kind of my recommended minimum.
Uh-huh.
Right. So, you know, call that 40, 50 ounces, right?
That you can run away with.
I think any high net worth investor above.
That can afford to do it.
That's your bare minimum.
If you've got too much gold to carry, you're doing pretty well.
Right, but in a grid-down situation, that's actually a liability.
Yeah, I hear you.
Well, good thing he doesn't have all that money in silver then, for God's sake.
He'd need a dump truck to drive that silver around.
So, as important as Bitcoin and any...
Any and all digital assets self-custody is you ought to have a responsible and reasonable amount of physicals in your possession.
Hopefully, if you have two residences or multiple real estate investments, you place them accordingly.
But you definitely can't go out on your skis with gold if you've got 50 million bucks.
It's just too much.
And that's really where, okay, I've done that.
Now I'm moving to Bitcoin and Monero and other digital assets that are super scarce.
It doesn't even matter what your opinion is.
They are a vehicle to do this, and they're one of very few.
Well, this is the great thing about Bitcoin, is an unlimited amount of Bitcoin still fits in the same, well, really the same seed phrase in your head.
So you use ledgers?
Is that a ledger?
Yeah, I've got them all.
This I just...
I don't know why it's still next to me on my conference table.
It's next to my Jedi frequency healing thing that blocks all ELF and EMF from our office.
This is like 700 yards of a halo.
Interesting. I sent you on text.
But yeah, I've used them all.
I do like Treasure.
Their new one's got kind of a really nice interface.
So does Ledger's.
But I have multiple.
And then wife has multiple.
Kids have their own cold and hot wallets.
And I've trained my 9- and 11-year-old how to use them.
And I think that's as important as training them on how to plant a seed, how to fire a gun, and how to light a fire.
Like, these are just skills hopefully we don't need but aren't going to harm you to have.
Right. Right.
Well, I agree.
And I think that liquidity in all of this is going to be key.
And crypto, especially Bitcoin, is very liquid.
You can move it instantly.
And unless you're working through a KYC exchange, you don't have to fill out a bunch of forms.
The bank can't stop it.
Even if, I mean, they really can't, but there's a lot of layer two upgrades that most people aren't conscious of.
And I think it's not a one size fits all, but only 2.3% of accredited investors globally are even exposed to Bitcoin.
Is that right?
I wish that number was a lot higher because I really feel like the precious metal investors are maybe about 5.8, 5.6.
Because the boomers were really trained not to buy precious metals.
Yeah, that's true.
And, you know, I'd like to have at least a quarter of the planet be semi-well capitalized with both of those, you know.
Because the window is, I don't want to be, you know, alarm raising, but I think that the window of time to really get yourself prepped is waning.
Yeah, I agree with you.
All right, so...
In wrapping this up, and by the way, thank you for taking the time here.
Tell us about your company, what you offer, and can individuals work with you, and do you have a minimum amount that you require?
Yeah, the minimum is I have to like you.
No, I'm not kidding.
I say that in a hopefully not arrogant way.
Basically, since we were kind of blessed with being self-financed.
And then kind of blackballed from Wall Street anyways because they initially hated crypto and then certainly hate freedom-loving, truth-telling anarcho-capitalists.
Right. So we screen people on how we can add value and then how we fit in the portfolio.
We offer two hedge funds.
We do have to comply with accreditation.
Status for US, for offshore, that's not applicable.
And then we're very light minimum relative to other hedge funds of around 100K.
We do take gold, sorry, we don't take gold physical gold.
We do take Bitcoin and Ethereum as contributions as well.
And then we also offer distributions and redemptions in fiat, Bitcoin or Ethereum.
So the point of the vehicles are really to...
Replace equity exposure within somebody's portfolio.
Because if you look, especially if you apply the recent 10-day vol data's annualized, Mike, if you look at, call it risk capital, $1 in the S&P or NASDAQ and $1 in Bitcoin, at this point, you're literally getting about 15% lower volatility for three times the return profile.
How we fit in addition to the consultative self-custody practice and the fact that we actually set up the wallets to go back and forth with our clients and pre-label, white label everything so that in a Armageddon grid now scenario, we can get everybody their capital really quickly in about 20 minutes.
So it has that prepper and hedger element to it.
But really the vehicles exist as comps to equity hedge funds in both Long-short discipline in one and a multi-strategy discipline in another where we're actually trying to stack large amounts of crypto while algorithms produce gains no matter what the market conditions are.
So it's been fun.
Okay. But one final question then about crypto and self-custody.
So people have to give you their crypto or buy it, I guess, with you for you to manage it.
You have to have possession of it to manage it, right?
If someone actually listens to us, Mike, what they do first is they come up with a number they're comfortable with having on hard drives and having in self custody.
We help them execute that number into Bitcoin, at least initially, and go further down the pipe from there.
Get everything, all the seed phrases.
We call it wallet hygiene.
Get all that dialed in.
And then when you're looking at your liquid portfolio, all right, I'm 60-40, I'm 73. All right, well, Mike, let's take 15% of that 70 equity exposure and then put it in the fund.
And oh, by the way, that is going to massively outperform anything you've ever done in your life.
And give you the hedging element of integrating it with your self-custody so that we can distribute gains.
You can add more and it can be two-way so that the allocation means more than just a number on a statement, Mike.
And that's when we built the firm in 2010.
That was the intention of what we ran then.
And then going for digital assets since 2017, it's been able to realize a hedger and prepping thesis and mandate that was not possible in trading Apple, for example.
And also, I mean, you can send people their...
Digital assets, obviously, wherever they are.
So it's very portable.
It's instantaneous.
And do you do anything outside of Bitcoin?
Do you handle any privacy coins?
Yes, we were.
As I think I mentioned, Dash was one that we were heavily involved in back in 2018, which was a privacy token proof of work.
We actually ran nodes on it, too.
So, yeah, we kind of stay in.
To be very humble and honest, it's hard to underwrite.
Everything because there's like a million tokens.
Yeah. We'd like to stay in about four or five segments of digital assets, privacy tokens, DeFi, layer one, layer two, and Bitcoin.
Okay. And within those sectors, we tend to have the top two to five holdings in those categories.
And that way we're giving clients, now, you know, a third of the fund, it has to be Bitcoin because of its liquidity and we keep it off exchange cold in five different qualified custodians.
So like, that's the...
The bookend hedge to everything, but you're pretty much an expert at privacy tokens.
These have so many different use cases up above and beyond store value.
We don't know which one the market's going to pick, so we need to make sure and own allocations to each of them.
And then DeFi, like Uniswap and DYD, there's so many different interfaces for people that are now multi-chain and interoperability and have shared security that All of the replacements for Wall Street already exist in DeFi,
whether it's borrowing, which would be on Aave, or it's transacting, which would be on Uniswap.
It's fascinating.
So those, especially here, Mike, if you look at Unis chart, it was in the 40s six, seven months ago.
It's like five bucks now.
But the thing is, the infrastructure is becoming a lot more mature pretty rapidly.
Oh, my God.
Yeah. They just exceeded two and a half trillion.
I saw, too, I don't know if you've looked at Xano, but I interviewed those guys, and they're rolling out the, what do they call it, confidential layer, which is a way to wrap Bitcoin inside a Xano privacy token so you can effectively, you can move Bitcoin around privately.
So it's not like one or the other.
Sometimes you can combine these tech, these different technologies, and achieve things.
You have the liquidity of Bitcoin and the privacy of Xano.
Even if you just use it for two minutes while you're moving it around.
It's unreal.
And I'm looking forward to demoing that when it goes out at TestNet, Mike, because we've done the cool part about the wrapping.
Like on wrapped Bitcoin, for example, which is wrapped with Ethereum, you can then have all of these DeFi applications, whether it be Yofar or Len.
And then, okay, Xando's coming out with privacy, which is hopefully going to continue to protect peer-to-peer.
And I'm sure it's going to work well because they're phenomenal developers.
And it then speaks to the valuation and the value proposition of Bitcoin in the first place.
Exactly. Yeah, I don't see anything ever replacing Bitcoin, but I see a lot of augmentative technologies adding kind of the missing pieces of Bitcoin, like privacy.
Well, and the throughputs on the Layer 2 side, Mike, that really enabled the B2B.
Because last year's 154.2 trillion B2B transactions at 611 basis points gross.
Yeah, you have to have layer two on Bitcoin and Ethereum.
But that was the fiat side I was quoting.
Bitcoin's only two basis points.
Oh, but you're talking about layer two solution.
Right, and so that enables the competition with Bitcoin for B2B payment solutions.
Got it.
Like I said, $154 trillion at 611 basis points.
Think of the extraction from humanity.
611 basis points is annualized.
Well, that's why Visa and MasterCard are so happy.
Well, and that, I mean, that number, they obviously skew it to the upside because it's in the 20s.
But when you just look at Bitcoin, even without all the layer two, it's two bips.
But then layer two cuts that in half.
People, I swear to God, people are going to end up looking at an interface, a graphical user interface, and unbeknownst to them, they're operating on a huge blockchain apparatus, and Bitcoin and maybe a few others are collateralizing that.
And applications like Zeno's doing to make sure all the peer-to-peer can happen free and clear are how that enables itself.
Wow. Well, I didn't even get a chance to ask you about AI, but we'll do this again.
But I forgot to ask you, we'll save it for next time, but the competition for electricity between Bitcoin and AI.
Like, they both need power.
A lot more power.
Yeah, but you know what the solution is already, Mike?
Free energy.
Yeah, it's coming.
It's coming.
CPT, it's coming.
Yep. And what's amazingly beautiful about that is you solidify, I mean, you solidify everything, but with respect to crypto, you then are able...
The miners, specifically, are able to lessen transaction fees, potentially pull forward a lot of the unknown unknowns where people are having questions after the last halving.
And then, well, if we don't have this giant input cost called kilowatt hours, we might be able to have a lot of fun.
Oh, man.
I'm not saying this is going to happen a couple quarters from now, but...
If everybody's talking about this ZPT stuff, Mike, it's coming.
Absolutely. It's going to be radical.
I'm so stoked for that.
Because I want that, desal plants, stop raping and pillaging the whole planet.
So much good can come out of this.
Yeah, for sure.
All right.
Well, Chris, let me give out your website again.
It's hyperiondecimus.com.
And I encourage people to reach out to you if they would like to connect with you about portfolio management, including digital assets.
