TRUMP IS ABOUT TO PUMP CRYPTO WITH MASSIVE QE PLANS!

we have to start with some big news coming out from President Trump related to housing and kind of bailing out the housing industry to make homes more affordable and to drop mortgage rates. Now, I know many of you are going to say, Tony, what does this have to do with crypto. Well, it's Trump's own form of QE quantitative easing. So let me give it to details and

we'll talk about the implications of this. So Trump says he's instructing unnamed representatives to buy two hundred billion dollars in mortgage backed securities in a bid to narrow mortgage spreads and bring down rates. Now, if you recall just yesterday or did they be, he said he was raising the defense budget from one trillion to one point five trillion. Do you see what's happening here? Same story different cycle. Because this is the Fiat system. They have to keep

raising the debts and the limits and so forth. They got to keep printing more money. So this is why I'm sharing the news with you because we know that as they continue to print and debase the currency and there's more liquidity, that will send acid prices higher. So we know the Fed is officially in the QE phase, and they talked about buying forty billion in treasury bonds and so forth. And then you got Trump doing his own thing. And this is happening before Jerome Powell leaves office.

And imagine when Trump gets his pick his feed chair in office, They're going to cut rates like crazy and they're gonna print. Guys. It's the same story. And this is why you have to make sure you have a long term view on the markets. Here's what user Geiger Capital on x. Trump is launching his own QI, buying more mortgage backed securities via Fannie May and Freddie Mack. You are not bullish enough. So again, if you understand the implications of all these things, folks, it's going to

have a positive impact on the asset prices. Now, in the short term, we could continue to see volatility. We all know that tomorrow we're going to hear from the Supreme Court about Trump's terrors. You know, we'll see what the impact of that is and what type of news we get and see how things play out. But I am anticipating that we are going to see a major rally.

The big question is is that simply a relief rally and if we roll over to a bear market or we continue to new all time highs now, we could see a rally that corrects and then continues higher. So we're just going to have to wait and see. Honestly, I don't think anybody knows definitively what is going to happen next. If they do, please ask them for next week's winning lottery numbers. Now, Earlier in the week, we

talked about Morgan Stanley filing for bigcoin Salon and etheremytis well, we got more news about their crypto plans. So they are looking to launch a crypto wallet in the second half of twenty twenty six. Folks, think about that, Morgan Stanley is launching a crypto wallet. What a time to be a lie, folks. It's incredible. All the things we've been talking about for years. It is coming to fruition. All the trad fin institutions are bending the need, they're

adopting the technology. It's inevitable, right, So it's amazing what is taking place. Let me give you some details. Two years after acknowledging a paradigm shift in traditional finance, Morgan Stanley continues, it's about face on cryptocurrency. The investment banking giant plans to launch bitcoin, ether and Solana trading on its e tray platform in the first half of this year, alongside plans for a proprietary digital wallet. Here's a quote.

This is really a recognition that the way that financial service infrastructure works is going to change. Jet Finn, Morgan Stanley's head of wealth management, told Barans. Over time, as our infrastructure develops, we'll be able to do more with the blending of the traditional finance or TRADFI and decentralized finance or DeFi ecosystems. There it is, folks, there, it is the convergence of DeFi and TRATFI, and we know

all the assets are going on chain. Larry Fink, CEO black Rock, said, tokenization is the future of finance, and this is not just a Wall Street or US movement. This is a global movement. So it's what I've been telling you guys. The future markets, economies, and governments will all run on blockchain rails. That is where we're headed to the token economy, which I've talked a lot about

over the years, folks. So I hope you recognize what's happening here and the price action, the short term price action is not blinding you from the thesis, right and having that macro outlook, because you can imagine the evaluations of these coins and blockchains are only going to continue to grow higher as more capital comes in, more building,

more adoption, so on and so forth, folks. This episode is brought to you by Treasure, which makes beautiful hardware wallets that make it easy for you to self custody your assets. Now.

we have some very big news around the Canton network. Many of you know I've been telling you all about this project for a long time, and most recently the DTCC announced they were going to tokenize on the Canton network. Well look at this. Temple Digital Group launches twenty four to seven institutional trading built on Canton, So huge adoption. Many of you may have caught my interview with to uvaal Ruse, who is the co founder and CEO of

digit Asset. That's the name of the firm. They're the ones working on the Canton network, and Canton Network is backed by major institutions like Goldman, Sachs and other Wall Street firms. So Temple Digital Group has launched a private institutional trading platform built on the Canton network, offering continuous twenty four to seven trading of digital assets using a

central limit order book and non custodial market structure. According to an announcement shared on coin Telegraph on Thursday, the platform supports trading in cryptocurrencies and stable coins and is designed to allow institutions to transact with approved counterparties while maintaining privacy and regulatory oversight, with participants retaining custody of

assets rather than relying on a central intermediary. Now, if you don't know Canton, they built a public blockchain that has privacy built in, so it doesn't need any third party integration z care or anything like that. It has it natively built in. So that's a differentiator. And it's built by a lot of these big firms to pay attention to. Here, guys, again, not financial advice. I'm not

telling you go invest in the project. I'm just saying watch it, think about it, research it, and if you choose to invest, then you know, obviously do what you gotta do. So the system is built around a price priority central limit order book with subsecond matching, and includes execution monitoring and transaction costs analysis tools intended for institutional trading desk. The company set so the platform is live and onboarding institutional users including asset managers, market makers and

financial institutions, with support for tokenized equities and commodities. Plan for twenty twenty six. Huge adoption news here. Okay, moving ahead,

we got a lot of acquisition news, which is really good. It's a healthy sign. So coincheck to acquire Digital Asset Manager three IQ in a one hundred and twelve million dollars stock deal so Coincheck Group, the Nazdak listed holding company behind one of Japan's largest cryptocurrency exchanges, has a read to acquire a ninety seven percent stake in Canadian digital asset manager three IQ from its majority owner, Monis Group.

The stock purchase transaction values three IQ at one hundred and eleven point eight four million dollars using Quincheck Group shares priced at four dollars each. Quincheck Group said it intends to offer these same terms to three IQ's minority shareholders, which should give it full ownership if the deal is completed. The deal is expected to close in the second quarter,

subject to regulatory approvals and other customary conditions. So, folks, we're going to see more of this once the clarityac passes the Market Structure Bill, because you're going to see TRADFI try to buy crypto native firms and vice versa. So don't be surprised when you start to see major, major acquisitions and then companies start to go public doing IPOs and much more so. Incredible news. Here, here's another one,

Fireblocks buys cryptocaccounting firm trests for one hundred and thirty million dollars. So it's trees from saying that right. So Fireblocks, many of you may know that brand. They're one of the top digital asset infrastructure custodial company. So digital asset infrastructure company Fireblocks has spent one hundred and thirty million dollars to acquire crypto accounting firm Trusts, tapping the company

for its tax compliance infrastructure to support institutions. Fireblocks said on Wednesday that with stable coin settlements exceeding hundreds of billions monthly, the enterprise is running entire treasury flows on chain. There is a strong need for sufficient blockchain accounting protocols to remain compliant here, they said, both crypto native firms

and traditional institutions need clear, accurate accounting and auditability. By offering Trusts and Fireblocks together, customers can now run both their digital asset operations and get financial intelligence they need on one secure, compliance, scalable stack, said Fireblocks CEO Michael Shaloff.

I'm saying that right. So guys, we're seeing the white glove service, the data, the analytics, all the bells and whistles that exist for the tradfire industry being built for crypto, and notice it's being built for institutions right to allow more money to come in, folks. So again, make sure you have the macro view on this market. We are seeing the infrastructure being set up here to piping right. Plus you have the macro factors of liquidity and quantitative easing.

You know, we started the podcast talking about Trump and what he's going to do there and the FED and much more. So all these things are going to dovetail together and drive the prices higher. But patients is the key. Now, look at this adoption news. This is big shout out

to my Floridians. Florida becomes the latest state to pursue bitcoin reserve ahead of twenty twenty six session. So we saw other states already start to do this Texas, Arizona and others. And we often talk about a game theory, right, no one's going to be left behind you. They're all going to want to get on board. And you know, these states are going to look at how they can invest in crypto and the ETFs have made it very

easy for them to do that. So the bill walls off bitcoin holdings in a standalone reserve, avoiding direct exposure across pensions and other state funds. Florida joins a small group of states beginning to move bitcoin policy from legislation toward early execution, albeit through different models. One by one, they're going to come on board. There may be a point where the FOMO really kicks in and they all jump in, or a handful of them jump in at the same time. But things are moving in the right

direction here. Now look at this, CFTC issues no action

relief clearing Bitnomial to offer event contracts. So divisions within the CFDC have given the green light for crypto focused exchange bitnomial to offer event contracts. So, you know, Mike se Leg was recently a confirm ast CFDC chair. So we're starting to see continued progress. A shout out to Caroline fam who was the acting chair, did an amazing job. And we're seeing both the SEC and the CFTC continue to provide clarity, which is really great. Now here's some

good news and I'm really happy to hear this. Trump says he has no plans to pardon jailed FTX founder Sam bankmirfree. You know, there's not too many things that would get me that pissed off. But if Trump did this, I would be really pissed off and it would really really be a bad look for Trump. I mean, horrible optics. Right. But thank goodness he's not partning Sam Bank myfreed Sam Bank Murfree needs to stay in jail along with Alex Maschinski.

These guys stole peoples of money and it wasn't There was no accident here. They knew what they were doing. And even though sam Bankmfree has been tweeting at Trump and trying to kiss ass as much as possible, he needs to stay in jail. So this is great. I'm really happy Trump is not doing this. Final news item,

Salona Mobile to launch SKR token for a Seeker phone on January twenty first. So we've been hearing a lot of details about this SKR token and looks like we have a launch date here. This is something I'm gonna check out and see if it's worth using and check out the token as well, and we'll see how it does. You know, the phone market is very competitive, but if you're offering some sort of incentive like a token or some major differentiator on the phone, that maybe it's you know,

very web three crypto friendly. You know, that could attract a lot of people, but we're gonna have to wait and see. Solana has done some phones in the past. You know, I don't think they've been as successful, but you know that doesn't mean that ultimately they can't get success. But you know, it's a hard thing to crack because the majority of the population around the world, they're not fully educated about blockchain and crypto. Some people are just

scared and intimidated something it's a scam. Some are like, well, I don't care, right, But there will come a point where they will care. They will come a point where people get educated and they're gonna want to have these things. And again, if you have a token, that's a great incentive.

So let me give you some details. Solana Mobile said it's highly anticipated SKR token will launch on January twenty first, with Solana Seekers smartphone users in the running to claim up to twenty percent of the token via air drop.

Solana said on Wednesday that SQR would launch on January twenty first at two a m UTC time, letting users delegate your tokens to guardians who will secure the Solona network while verifying devices and curating the decentralized app store, so users will earn rewards in exchange for delegating the tokens and will also be able to access various exclusive in app features. So interesting, Let's see how it goes. I might try to get it one of these, and you know, see if I can participate and get the

tokens right. You never know, guys, but I'll give you the guys the details once I do. You know, figure this out. So, folks, that's the news. Let me know what you think.
