Intro

Speaker 1

The Federal Reserve cuts rates and we'll start money printing on December twelfth. This is huge, a breakdown what this means for the markets and much more. Let's get into it. Hey, folks, welcome into the Thinking Crypto podcast, your home for cryptocurrency news and interviews. I'm your host, Tony Edward. On your way in. Please let that subscribe button as well as the thumbsup button and leave a comment below. If you're listening on a podcast platform such as Spotify or Apple,

please leave a five star rating and review. Folks, I'm

Fed Cuts Rates and money printing soon

sure many of you saw the news, but today the Fed announced they are cutting rates by twenty five basis points. This is what the market was expecting, and overall it's great because it makes capital cheaper. In addition, as they continue to lower rates, people are going to move away from money market accounts where they are earning interest and now they're getting less because the rates are cutting, and they're going to move to risk assets. So that's one

benefit here. But what Jerome Powell said today is that the Fed will begin per sing US treasury bills on December twelfth. He said they will buy forty billion dollars of US treasury bills in thirty days. They're not even waiting for twenty twenty six. They're starting right away. Remember, quantitative tightening just ended nine days ago on December first.

This is the thesis I've been sharing with you all for a long time now, right, But of course it takes time, and we're seeing it play out, folks, And that is liquidity. The return to easy money is here. So what does this mean. It means increase liquidity. Globally, we see Japan is also doing stimulus, and you can expect other central banks are going to do the same thing because this is the only playbook they have. They have to keep printing money. This is the debt based

fiat system. Once you understand that, you understand how that correlates the asset prices. So as they continue to debase currency, that drives acid prices higher. Now, this is not full on Kiwi. And the name Jerome Powell gave for this move is reserved management. So you know, for a long time I said, look, it doesn't matter what they call it, right, They may call it something different from quantitative easing, but the outcome is still the same thing, and that's good

for the markets. Now, some of you're gonna say, Tony, why isn't the markets pumping patients patients patients patients? Right, we have to let the market do its thing. Remember, markets are cyclical. We are coming out of a very deep correction here, which was really crazy, right. I think back to October tenth when Trump tweeted out about the China tariffs, and we have the biggest liquidation in the market ever in the crypto market. So we got to

be patient. But we are seeing some signs of strength for Bitcoin, higher highs and higher lows. In addition, the stock market is looking good. The S and P five hundred is on the move, so is the rustle. It is starting to break out. It actually made new highs. Now it has to enter into full price discovery. So I don't want to get too excited. We want the market to show us strength and break through those key resistance levels because you know, bears are still going to

fight here, right. But this is a very positive sign. We're seeing the bullish momentum building here. But we got to exercise a lot of patients. It will take time to climb out of this hole. But what's on the horizon with the FED going back to quantitative easing light if you want to call it that, right, is very bullish and means more liquidity will come into the markets. Now we also see that many big digital ascid treasury

BTC Treasury companies buying

companies are buying. So today we've got announcement that Vivek Ramaswami strive to raise five hundred million dollars to purchase more bitcoin. In addition, Eric Trump's America Bitcoin buys four hundred and sixteen bitcoin worth thirty eight million dollars. So again I present the question to you, why are these guys buying here? According to some people, Rickoin's going to roll over and go into straight into a bear market. Right? Are they dumb? Are these guys stupid? They're buying at

these prices that they're going to lose money. Why would they not wait for bitcoin to go lower if we're going to a bear market, to buy at the bottom and then wait. So it does an add up with what the bears are saying. And one of the things I highlighted in my newsletter today is that bitcoin whales on chain data according to from Sentiment shows whales are starting to accumulate again. So they were in distribution for the past two months and now they're accumulating. That's a

very positive sign. So we're seeing on chain data show is whales buying. You got digital acid, treasury companies buying bitcoin, even etherorem I've been highlighting what Tom Ley's bitmine has been doing. And not to mention, you see the launch of crypto services. Yesterday we talked about P and C bank launching crypto trading. We got Vanguard recently opened up

the ability for their clients to access crypto ETFs. You have Charles Schwab getting ready to launch crypto trading in twenty twenty six, So wouldn't those guys want to do that before the ball off top? Again, something doesn't add up here, and you know in my newsletter I also highlighted that we're heading into twenty twenty six with some very big narratives and let me quickly run through that.

So once again QI from the Fed and global central banks, in addition, lower rates which equals cheaper capital, US market structure bill on deck to be passing Q one to twenty twenty six, if not early Q two. You got crypto and tech companies looking to do IPOs again, who to hell IPOs and a bear market if liquidity is drying up. So you see, the facts are not aligning here with the narratives and the bears. In addition, Trump is going to appoint a new FED chair, so Jerome

Powell is going to be gone by May. And you know Trump is going to put in someone who's going to do his bidding and you know, be aligned with his economic goals, right guys. So I mean, look, and it's not guarantee that we're going to see new all time highs for bitcoin, but definitely we're going to see a rally. And I'm curious what the all coins do? You know, the best scenario is that Bitcoin heads to a new all time high, to a blow off top along with the stock market, and all coins follow and

you know, we get that euphoric blow off top. So we're gonna have to wait and see in and you know, be patient. And here's some very interesting news along the

Asia's wealthy individuals to buy crypto

lines of Wales buying survey fines six in ten of Asia's rich plan to ramp up crypto buying. So more than half of wealthy Asian investors in a recent survey say they plan to increase their portfolio exposure to cryptocurrency over the next few years. Signum's APAC HNWI Report twenty twenty five found that six and ten of these surveyed Asian high network individuals are prepared to increase their crypto allocations based on a strong two to five year outlook.

It polled two hundred and seventy high net worth individuals with more than one million dollars in investable assets and professional investors with over ten years of experience across ten APAC countries, mainly in Singapore, but including Hong Kong, Indonesia, South Korea, and Thailand. So this is spot on. The regulations are coming in the guardrails, the traditional institutions are offering crypto, so you can imagine a lot of people are gonna get it, more exposure to crypto and they're

gonna put more money into the market. So, folks, we do have a bullish set up here, but you know, nothing is guaranteed, so let's see how the market plays out. Be patient again. Some of you are going to say Tony's supposed to pump on Jerome Powell saying this, No, it's not. Markets don't necessarily have to do that. It depends where they're at in this cyclical pattern. What's the sentiment much more. So just be patient and let's see how this all plays out. Folks. This episode is brought

to you by Treasure, which makes beautiful hardware wallets. Many of you know, I'm a big believer in self custody. I have been preaching self custody for years and I'm a user of the Treasure devices. I use the Treasure Save five and the Treasure is Save seven and folks, their hardware wallets are top of the line, highest security, quantum Ready and Treasure they were the ones who started hardware wallets back in twenty thirteen, so they were the pioneers.

They created the seed phrase setup and much more. And they offer support for all the top coins out there, including Bitcoin, e Theorem, Salona, xrp, cardono, Be, doge Coin, you name it, even new tokens like black Rocks, Biddle and much more. And they have a great software suite that helps you to manage all of this, and you can buy and sell within that software as suitet as well. Treasure also offers a handholding service where you can talk to a Treasure rep to help you get your device

set up. Don't worry, they don't ask you for your private key, So that's a great feature for people who are new to the market and new to these type of devices. And folks, they have a holiday sale going on right now where you can get some big discounts. Many of you know they had the Black Friday Cyber Monday deal. Right now they got a kind of like a Christmas holiday deal going on, so big discounts, so it'll be a great time to grab a device and get it at a discounted price. So check it out, folks.

The link will be in the description. Once again, I'm the user of the devices, so it's a really really great product, so check it out. Link will be in a description. Now, folks, look at this news. This is

CFTC Gemini Prediction market

pretty big. Gemini Exchange receives CFDC license to offer prediction markets in the US. So Gemini now publicly traded company. Of course, their stock price jumped on this news. And the prediction market race is heating up here, folks. So competition is, you know, very healthy. It's very good for the market. It's great to have different options. So let's see what Gemini is able to launch here, and looks

like they're on the up and up. You know, for years they've been kind of the smaller exchange hanging around, but I think they're going aggressive now now that we have clarity in the United States. Now, speaking of the CFTC,

CFTC CEO innovation council

we got an update here that CFDC Acting Chairman Caroline Fam announced CEO Innovation Council participants to discuss market structure developments in the derivatives' markets. Participants include CEOs from Polymarket, Calshiecrypto dot Com, Gemini, and Kraken. So this is really great. Caroline Fam has been doing an amazing job. I mean, she's the loan commissioner there in the acting chair, and I'm blown away at the work she's doing. So shout

out to her. Kudos to her. Man. I wish you know she would have been the selected chair, but Mike sea leg is, of course Trump's nominee, and that's no problem. But Caroline Fam, she's knocking it out of the park. Just doing some amazing things here. Okay, moving ahead, payments,

Stripe Crypto payments app

Giant Stripe acquires team from crypto wallet app Valora. So a lot of trad fi payment companies and tech companies are building their crypto divisions and teams now. It's so bullish. I mean years ago you couldn't even imagine this and you're seeing a lot of titles on LinkedIn that are head of crypto, head of digital assets, and it's amazing.

So payments giant Stripe has acquired the team from the crypto wallet firm Valora, just a day after launching its test net for its stable coined focused blockchain project Tempo. According to Valora CEO Jackie Bona, the acquisition will see Valora team join Stripe and work on the firm's blockchain initiatives. Valora was founded in mid twenty twenty one after spinning out of Cello development group Sea Labs and raising twenty million dollars in a Series A funding in the process.

So the Velora app is a mobile app that supports stable coins and other assets like Cello, ethereum based optimism, and arbitrum. Apart from the wallet, the team has also developed an open protocol launch pad for Web three apps, geared toward a mobile native experience. Incredible stuff, folks. So you see again these big players making massive moves, whether it's investments, expansions, mergers and acquisitions, some going public. Incredible stuff.

Now Pantera Capital and coinbase back serfs fifteen million dollar

Pantera Coinbase Surf Crypto AI

push to build crypto native AI models. So again just examples of the investment in the capital that's being deployed here. SURF, an AI platform built for digital asset analysis, raised fifteen million dollars in a round led by Pantera Capital with participation from Coinbase Ventures and DCG to expand its AI models and enterprise tools. The company offers a domain specific model used by exchanges and research companies to analyze on

chain activity, market behavior, and sentiment. The funding will go toward SERF two point zero, which will introduce more advanced models, broader proprietary data sets, and additional agents designed to handle multi step analytical tasks. Serf said its platform has seen rapid uptakes since its launch in July, generating more than one million research reports and claiming millions in annual recurring revenue with the usage of a large share of major

exchanges and research firms. So the infrastructure being built out here for the crypto asset class folks as it matures and they're using AI, and that absolutely makes sense. Now

ETHZilla onchain housing finance acquisition

look at this eth Zilla, the digital asset treasury company that is of course focus on Ethereum moves into on chain housing finance with fifteen percent Zippi acquisitions. So this is interesting. Former biotech company eth Zilla is doubling down on its bush into real world assets markets, taking a fifteen percent steak in a digital housing lender Zippy to bring manufactured home loans on chain. To deal marks the

company's second acquisition in a week. So they're going beyond just simply holding the ether asset on their balance sheet. They're doing some venture here and look at the company they're investing in, which is bringing home loans, manufactured home loans on chain. So, folks, we know the future. As I've been saying, I'm beating the drum, it's all running on chain. The government's, the economies, and the market, it's

all running on chain. According to Wednesday's announcement, e Zilla will pay five million dollars in cash and sixteen point one million dollars in stoff for a fifteen percent steak in Zippy, a US based lender founded in twenty twenty one that originates manufactured home loans through a digital platform.

The company's plan to link Zippy's loan origination in AI powered systems with eat Zilla's tokenization stack for on chain distribution of manufactured home chateel loans, including potential forward flow sales to institutional investors. Incredible what's being built here, folks. And once again, this is not getting the big headlines on CNBC and MSNBC or whatever it is, Fox and so forth, And you got to really take the time to go through to see what these folks are building.

It's really exciting. Final news item here, Mike Novograt's Galaxy

Galaxy Digital UAE expansion

expands to UA as part of Middle East push so again, investments, mergers and acquisitions, global expansion, and much more so. In a Wednesday notice, Galaxy said it would establish an entity under the registration authority of the Abu Dhabi Global Market, the area's international financial center. According to Galaxy Digital founder and CEO Mike Novograts, the move was part of a strategy to expand the company's existing partnerships and acquisitions. Here's

what he said. The Middle Eases a rapidly growing financial hub that is home to some of the world's most sophisticated investors and innovators. It has become partly an influential region for our investors' clients and portfolio companies, and we believe this office will establish new opportunities as a leading global digital Assets Investment and Infrastructure firm. So it absolutely

makes sense. This is a smart move. There's a lot of capital there, a lot of people that want to invest in crypto, and a lot of the infrastructure they have built here in the United States. They can just simply take that over there, right and again, all of this is really great to bring in more capital and to allow more adoption of the asset class. So bullish

times are head folks. I know a lot of you are waiting for prices to go hire, be patient, have the macro view, and make sure you're not investing with your emotions, right, you leave your emotions at the door. Look at the data, look at the macro, look at the unchain information to charts in much more, folks, be sure to subscribe to my email newsletter. Once again, I put out a write up today. Check it out. It breaks down a lot of details and charts and so forth.
