Tokenization is going to change everything.

Bonds
Stocks
Real Estate
Everything about finance. This isnt an opinion its happening right now, embrace change and prosper.

Or continue like hdawg, kkkalm, and MGR88 and deny change is happening, just because you do not understand the technology is no reason to miss out. Its not gambling anymore than the stock market.


Everything in the world is going to be onchain

Identity
Insurance
Titles
Real Estate
Money
Stocks
Bonds
Gold
Silver
etc

Everything

This is the industrial revolution 4.0

AI and blockchain are technologies that EVERY bank in the world is now starting to use and adapt. There is no going back, this is bigger than the internet and cell phones.

Look at the market caps of the following.

Microsoft $3.339 T
Apple $3.148 T
Nvidia $3.01 T
Amazon $2.215 T
Alphabet (Google) $1.926 T
Saudi Aramco $1.647 T
Meta $1.607 T

Crypto is at $3.3 trillion and its in its infancy. When it is mass adopted and in full swing, Crypto will be in the 10s of quadrillions

Blackrock just announced they will be bringing $600 trillion dollars to the blockchain in the near future.

Now Blackrock and all their investments are in on the Ponzi scheme. Everyones 401ks are going to be on chain even if you don't want them to be.

If Larry Fink (Blackrock) is right about the tokenization market it could increase 4000x.




Its a ponzi scheme DO NOT GET ON THIS BULLRUN!!!

Also when the entire stock market moves to tokenization technology, disregard this and yell PONZI SCHEME at the top of your lungs! (think RUSSIA!!!)

Did anyone ever call this a ponzi scheme? You keep saying that term but I don't think it means what you think it means. If crypto worked like a real electronic currency, it would be something. When it's pegged to a real currency, like the dollar, then it's just another means of engaging in speculation. Sure, there's money involved and I'm sure plenty of people can get rich. But from a thing of real substance, it's pretty ephemeral right now.

He's a radio personality. He says like a bazillion things over the course of his shows. I'm sure he's said everything imaginable. Who's said it here? I think the thing that Schiff said about Crypto that is correct is that it's like a Tulip Mania. That's all crypto is right now, tulips. If and when it ever becomes the worldwide currency that its original founders dreamed off, independent of currency manipulation by nation states, then we can talk about it. Right now it's basically like going to the casino, but with better odds.

The twin TDS patients and hdawg have all called it a Ponzi scheme. Hence the reference.

Label it whatever you want but it not going away its 1000 times the internet in the financial world. More secure faster, lower fees etc

When I talk about crypto Im not talking about the meme coins, those are stupid and you deserve to lose money there. They offer nothing of substance other than fun.

Crypto to me is altcoins. They offer utility, technology and security on the layer 3 internet. XRP, XLM, Cardano, Quant, HBAR, Ondo, Algorand, Solana, Flare etc These have value offer better network stability, more energy efficient and are 100Xs faster and way more secure than Bitcoin.

Bitcoin isnt going anywhere it a store of value and will always be around because of its limited quantity and it was first. Its a resource pig, its slow, the network is junk but its still king for awhile

Ripple (XRP) created RLUSD which is based on the dollar, they will have RLYEN, RLEURO etc All of finance will be on blockchain its not a guess its all moving there and is the future of finance. Like I stated earlier the entire stock market will be tokenized very shortly, then insurance, real estate, identity, etc. The entire world will run on blockchain technology in less than 10 years. The altcoins stated above are the engine to the machine

There are lots of idiots on youtube when it comes to crypto but this guy and Alex Becker are right a lot. Watch a few of his videos they are 10-14 mins long and Nick is all into altcoins and gives a ton of solid information and background from around the world. Alex Becker is right a lot but hes brash and basically an asshole in his videos so he turns a lot of people off. I dont mind because my friends are worse than he is. Either way his info is hands down more spot on than anyone I have found relaying crypto info on the internet or traditional media that shits all over crypto whenever they can

MTG links Trump’s crypto bill to the Biblical end of time as she quotes Book of Revelation
Georgia Republican Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene invoked the Bible on Wednesday to declare her opposition to a landmark cryptocurrency bill, equating the legislation’s potential impact to the Biblical end of times.

Referring to a passage of the book of Revelation, Greene insinuated that if the bill, called the GENIUS Act, did not explicitly ban digital currency from being issued by a central bank, it could lead to the demise of the world.
...
The GENIUS bill, which stands for Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins Act, seeks to create a regulatory framework for stablecoins – a form of cryptocurrency that is considered less volatile than typical cryptocurrency.
