The bankers wrote their letters in shadows cold and deep. A promise forged of iron chains to bind us in our sleep. They called it just a progress, a digital decree. But freedom has no barcode and souls are not for leave. It's the final countdown, the reckoning of men Crypto gold and silver rise where paper dies again They dream of central power, of money's iron cage But voices rise
unbroken to light this modern age He hauls to Davos. The tyrants take their claim. They preach of safety, justice, but hunger for the chain. They hide behind the slogans. They whisper, trust the plan. But every law they're passing just enslaves the common man. But voices rise unbroken to light this
modern age. The merchants and the dreamers, the rebels and the wise,
take refuge in the ledgers where the watchful stake can pry. In Zano's cloak of shadows, in Monero's quiet streams, they guard the ancient promise of liberty's old dream. It's the final countdown, the reckoning of men. Crypto gold and silver rise where paper dies again. They dream of central power, of money's iron cage. But voices rise unbroken to light this
modern age. Raise your hands in firelight Let tyrants hear the sound The people's last defiance Is the truth that won't back down It's more than just survival It's more than just a stand It's freedom's final chorus song Across this burning land
The land don't breathe like it used to breathe My grandfather held the soil like scripture in his hand But now the fields are wire-tied, a fortune of nearly five hundred billion running under satellite light. Just two percent decide the table for three hundred thirty million souls. While the hum of iron engines sends our birthright to the core. They're pulling five gigabytes an hour
Rising like a prayer tonight Send a word to a corporate sky The farmer's locked outside And though nearly twenty million work begins Only a tiny handful touch the land The machine grows tall, the people small, their stories slipping from their hands. Oh, the rule remembers freedom, even buried in the dark. You can chain the lie with numbers, but you cannot chain the spark.
This ain't farming, it's a wheel of steel and coal. Your grandfather's farm's a check point on a techno credit road. They take the seed, they take the soil, they take the hours from you. One acre at a time A quarter of the world's sea Locked behind a corporate gate You can't save your own just by
a game Let algorithms choose your fate And nearly ten billion animals Push through corridors of chrome the land once sank the servers grown what he used to feed now grown there's over three trillion to quit farmers rent but never keep and well over three hundred trillion in debt holding families in Call it progress, call it glory But I've read the hidden
lines The machine is fed by labor And it starves the working mind The land still knows your footsteps Even under grids and wires The machine can dim the daylight But it cannot drown the fire. This ain't farming. It's a wheel of steel and coal. A tiny few hold the compass for the many down below. Click out your day.
One story at a time Your grandfather's lands been patterned Your pasture quantified But no algorithm knows the truth Of what your hands decide This ain't farming It's a kingdom built on screams They turn the soil to a number, turn the farmers into meals. But the land remembers kindness, and the people are still alive.
Live free or die, but death's not the worst It's waking up empty, it's dying of thirst Trading your days for insurance and pills While the machine builds your cage and you're paying the bills Quiet aspiration, that's the real grave. A life half lived as a comfortable slave. This ain't what you were born for, you know it's true. You feel it in your chest, breaking. Cracking your dollars underneath your skin Left and right, same throne,
same crown No one stands up, no one makes a sound They hand you a ballot like it means something real Two wings of one bird, same deal, same steel We say no, no to the chase, no to the dark It hurts right here, it hurts right now Your rights are yours, you take them back, not giving out Not from the left, not from the right They were always yours,
now step into the light The daylight breaks, a new day comes We take it back We fan the flame Nothing will ever be the same
Welcome back to The Aaron Day Show. This is Season Two, Episode Fifty. This is an exciting episode. You're going to end up being a multi-part situation. So this is the first of a few videos I'll be doing on confidential air. So tonight is going to be primarily an overview of what it's all about. And then I'm going to be working on Developing some interactive guides and some features to go into step-by-step detail on how to use it all. Frankly, I want to talk to the confidential layer people directly, which I have not done yet, about all of the features. Because it turns out there are more cryptos involved than I thought originally, or than I knew originally.
I knew originally that this was for... bitcoin and ethereum and now it's bitcoin ethereum bnb solano um tether die so it's actually it's expanded significantly and there are a lot of implications for that but i want to find out from them for sure exactly fully what is working now versus how much of this is going to be rolled out and over what time period. But we do know and I can demonstrate and will demonstrate that you can make your Bitcoin private. So that much I know works and I'll play a very short video on that But this is actually huge news. tonight. And I will say this.
I did a podcast last night with a Bitcoin maxi. And I'm very excited about this because he's the only Bitcoin maxi that has ever talked to me. As you know, as we've discussed on this program many times, most of the Bitcoin Maxis have actually many of whom I've never spoken previously. blocked me, And so this is a guy named Cedric Youngleman. he has a podcast called the bitcoin matrix on youtube and so i encourage you to check it out and he actually has he's been around he's been doing this for a while uh has a great great podcast and he's had certainly all of the big bitcoin maxis on there and so uh anyway just
a shout out to uh to cedric thank you for uh for having me on and uh and being willing to listen to, you know, somebody who's definitely not a maxi. most of the interview was talking about Now, technocracy and other related things, but we did get into the Bitcoin stuff at the end. So, you know, I thought that was great news and always like to see when people are actually open to discussion. Now, I'm going to ask you to like and share this. I don't know if you have seen this, but I have actually seen a couple of posts that apparently X is clamping down on crypto-related content. And of course, we already know I'm search banned for things that are technocracy-related.
So the numbers are a little lower, certainly on Monday. And in fact, in general, I'm putting out posts and they're getting one or two likes and very... very little reach so my freedom of reach as it were has been somewhat suppressed and so i think this is an important episode and want to make sure uh we get the word out and i know some of the people that would normally be on are at another event ironically a bitcoin event tonight So I'm not sure even what's going to happen with the Q&A at the end, but we'll see what happens. I just recapped the last episode from Monday, season two, episode forty nine with Craig Wenkelwitz. We talked about the idea that two thousand
eight was just a practice run and walked through the parallels of. where the economy was before the two thousand and eight collapse versus where we are today in terms of debt levels, in terms of delinquency rates, that type of thing. And then we also discussed, you know, AI. This idea is AI. People are pushing the narrative that AI is a bubble that's going to crash the economy. My argument was that if it wasn't for AI, we would have already had a bubble, which doesn't mean that there isn't going to be a, you know, massive amounts of malinvestment in AI. But we did talk about that aspect of it as well. And then the week before that, or excuse me, the episode before that,
I guess this was just one week ago, we officially launched the beta of Oasara, which is the global medical tourism marketplace. And as I've said, this is not a final product. I welcome your feedback, particularly your critical feedback about And in fact, you know, I'm building the site to help people. And if it doesn't do that, then, you know, then I will have failed. And so I don't, I know that it needs some work. And I'm sure that there are some things that are obvious that I probably didn't put into the first version of this. So if you go to osr.com, I'm putting the URL there. in the comments, excuse me,
you can you can check out the site. But I'm also offering a thousand dollar bounty program that some people have already signed up for. So if you suggest a feature request, you'll receive fifty dollars in Freedom Dollar, which if you're not familiar with Freedom Dollar, Freedom Dollar is a stable coin. It's a privacy stable coin. built on the Zeno blockchain. And so one Zeno equals one dollar. So if you submit something, a feature request and we accept it, it's fifty dollars. A bug report, thirty dollars and UI improvement, twenty dollars. So I welcome you to do that. Of course, as I load it up, we're having problems with the
bounty program. So I guess you will not be able to submit that one as a bug request. But in any event, looking forward to this because we are officially launching this on January the first. And by the way, it's interesting. So actually, I was almost a little bit late. I got a little bit sidetracked because I guess the Senate just failed to pass a some insurance reform bill, they were trying to propose the idea that instead of expanding or extending Obamacare, that people would just get an extra fifteen hundred dollars worth of credit towards HSAs. And so I was basically trolling Republican senators on this because, as I've said many times,
HSA is not a free market health care solution. It's a combination of a CBDC and a social credit score. And so I'll explain. A health savings account basically is the IRS determines, or I guess Congress through the IRS determines what percentage of your own money You can put into an account that is tied to a card that is digitally tracked that you can only use to purchase goods and services at places that the health care system has decided are valid health care choices. This is not a market solution. It's actually a march towards technocracy. So I'm going to be talking more about that. And if I if I ramp up the Senate. thing. That's the last video. I played the video.
Obviously, my campaign is going to be around, you know, people should vote for themselves, take their power back. And one way is to exit this health care system. And because neither the Republicans nor the Democrats are offering any solution, the system is broken at a fundamental level. And so when you go to OSR.com, you will learn about that. You can see there's a section, a guide section that tells you everything that you need to know about You know, the price scandal within the existing health care system, everything you want to know about insurance, so on and so forth. And of course, the big data point here is that every minute in the United States of America,
someone files for bankruptcy due to medical costs. Seventy five percent of those are insured. Seventy seven percent of those are homeowners. The average age is forty four point nine. So this isn't, you know, freeloaders or poor people that don't have insurance or whatever. This is this is predominantly people that own homes, have insurance, are college educated, and they're having to file for medical bankruptcy. And in some cases, they're losing their homes to the hospitals and to the banks. And so I find that to be unacceptable. And the medical tourism piece isn't the end-all, be-all. This is the beginning of building a full parallel healthcare system. But it does address this critical
component, which is that people can't afford healthcare here for major surgical They either can't afford it or you have procedures. to wait in line or you're not even told how much it's going to cost in advance. And then you get... a bill and then you find you're filing for bankruptcy so you know you can and i recommend create what's called a medical trust where you can put your assets in a trust and shield it from legal liability and so the site has a whole map it shows you and educates you on everything you want to know about health trust there's a chat bot here if you want to ask it questions you don't have to so if you see on this map that your state has a
Low favorability score for medical trust. Understand you can create a trust in a different state than you live in. So that's important to note. It's kind of, you know, if you're familiar with the fact that most corporations are filed in Delaware and now increasingly places like Nevada and Wyoming. It's because they have more favorable laws. So in any event, I want your feedback. I'd love your feedback. I'm building this to help people because I know so many people are in a position where they have a job they don't want for health care that they think will protect them in an emergency, which it won't. And the reason that employment is tied to
insurance goes all the way back to World War II. when there were wage freezes put in place. And so the way employers like GM and others could compete for talent was by offering health insurance. Well, it was eighty years ago and we've never decoupled these things. And so now people have jobs they don't want because they can only get insurance through this employer based system and it doesn't actually protect them. And then of course, they're building retirement funds. with these financial vehicles, you know, for one case and so forth that they don't even have the voting rights for and that hold investments in companies that are building a digital prison for them.
So the whole point of this is to provide any of a number of tools to help people understand the severity of the problem, that there are choices, but everybody should look at a medical trust. And we even put in here links Because if you're thinking, oh, my God, a lawyer, I can't afford a lawyer. We even put links down here to various services that you can go to to actually like LegalZoom and so forth for as little as one hundred and fifty dollars. You can form a medical trust. I mean, one hundred fifty dollars is the cost of three aspirin at a hospital. So definitely it's something that you can you can afford if you have any assets at all that you want to protect.
i recommend that so uh welcome your feedback the more critical feedback the better the more there's no you know and again i wouldn't be surprised if i i you know overlooked very basic things and so you're not going to hurt my feelings i'm very much interested in what you have to say um and january first will be the official launch and we're actually going to be pushing to get people to do three things. We're going to have three pledges. One pledge is to sign up for medical Another pledge is to exit the healthcare trust. system during open enrollment next year. as I'm watching the Senate debate this And by the way, ridiculous situation today with their failed bill, you realize,
and I will be commenting on this more, there's even more to say about what's going on with the government as relates to technocracy, which will be part of the presentation tonight. This is a hot button issue and there is no political solution because the system is broke. We have thirty eight trillion dollars in debt, but we have much more than that, three times that amount in unfunded medical liabilities. The government is responsible now for thirty forty seven percent of insurance costs. It is the largest part they own. Basically, they set the terms for the health care system. So I, you know, It's broke. I'm very passionate about this as You will know if you've been listening to
this just from my own experiences personally and then as an entrepreneur in the healthcare space, seeing how this works. And actually, this just came up in my feed today that highlights one of the main points here, which is that hospitals don't disclose pricing. Only five percent of hospitals nationally provide pricing, even though they're legally obligated to do so. And they don't because they would rather pay a three hundred dollar a day penalty than let people find out how much they're fleecing their customers. And this video really exemplifies that. So let me. So I just got my hospital bill in the mail and before I had a baby, I always wondered how much it costs to
have a baby here in the US. I have pretty good health insurance, but this is the breakdown of my hospital bill. So the first thing was the room where I stayed at after delivery, and that was seventeen thousand seven hundred and sixty dollars. Pharmacy, fifty five dollars. Medical surgical supplies, one thousand three hundred and twenty three dollars. non-sterile supplies two thousand four hundred thirty seven sterile supply fifty bucks lab work one thousand four hundred eighty four immunology four hundred and fifty dollars hematology one thousand
ninety eight anesthesia six hundred and fifteen dollars for that nice epidural drugs required fifty nine delivery room twenty thousand three hundred ninety five for a whopping total oh wait no I missed it I don't even know what the heck this is five thousand six hundred fifty seven dollars and then for a whopping total of fifty one thousand three hundred eighty three dollars this is before insurance and just as an FYI there was no complications at all during my birth natural delivery no issues whatsoever
So there are many such cases. I mean, that's not actually uncommon what you just And that's because, again, saw there. the hospitals don't disclose the pricing. One of the things I might add to the site is a map that allows you to find out whether or not your hospital discloses pricing or not, and then a place where people can upload their bills. Mark off your name and do what this woman just did because that video went viral. And the truth is that's not an outlier. That's the normal situation is that people are getting ripped off with these healthcare costs. So imagine if a million people posted their hospital bills online on a site that people could see and share their stories.
um you know because that's how insane this is fifty thousand dollars for a pregnancy with no complication so anyway i encourage you to take a look uh at that and uh you know again i hopefully this to me is one of the most important things we can do people always ask how can we defeat this technocracy and you know you're not going to vote your way out but you can by reclaiming your free will, at the ballot box, reclaiming your attention and saying no and not complying and using alternatives. And there are alternatives for everything. It may seem like you don't have any choices outside of the healthcare system. People just don't know what they are. And it's not true.
I mean, in addition to this, I mean, there are many Indian pharmacies and so on and so forth, which I'm not going to certainly put links up to right now but i mean there are alternatives if you if you just realize that you should look for them uh you can actually source a whole variety of different things now that just takes care of you know health if you actually have a situation you need to deal with but of course the real solution here is to empower people to take care of their own health so they don't need these systems and that will be kind of phase two and phase three of what we're doing at osr The episode before that was a great interview that I did with Hakeem Anwar from Above Phone.
And actually, I just got my Above Phone this week. And I'm going to be talking about this a lot more, probably towards the end of January. But we're going to be offering a daylight version of the Above Phone. So you will be able to get a de-Googled phone that has a Zeno wallet, has VP.net access. which is a VPN solution where the company offering it doesn't hold your information. So it turns out a lot of these VPN services, they do have the logs. and if subpoenaed, may be pressured to provide the logs. VP.NET actually has come up with a solution where technically they don't even have access to the logs. So put that on the phone and then the six different websites that we have
are going to go on the phone, which by the end of January, they'll actually be fully up and fully operational and out of the development and testing phase. and then the phones also have mike adams brightu.ai on it right on the phone so you can use the ai even if you're not connected my thinking behind this is we've got to accelerate adoption and if you can put everything in one device you've knocked out you know six or seven different different things all at once so uh so stay tuned on that um it should be the end of end of next month And if you've listened to the last two or three episodes, I've actually generated AI books on the podcast.
And we did one. Craig and I co-authored a book about AI. the parallels between the two thousand eight collapse and where we are today. Previously, we did one on Panopticon in the classroom and what's going on with surveillance. But I recommend that you check that out. I'm going to in fact, I'm going to pull this website up as well. Check out books dot one books that bright learn that I. And so you can see they now have six hundred and thirty three books. And what Mike's created here is phenomenal. So this isn't based on chat GPT information or Claude or X or excuse me, Grok.
This is based on information that Mike Adams has collected over the decades. And then, you know, over the last couple of years, he spent two million dollars building his own eye. So what happens is you put a prompt into his system to create a book and that prompt can be up to seventy five hundred characters long. And then he has a system that will actually turn that prompt into a full book that you can read online as well as download as a PDF. And in some cases, you know, there's going to be an audiobook feature moving forward. But the book itself has references in it. It's not like, you know, people are familiar with hallucinations with these AI models.
this model actually checks against the the data that he has in his system which are which are primary sources so when you're seeing a chapter and you're seeing the references at the end of the chapter the references aren't the estimate from the ai of what the word should be or whatever next to next to this particular thing he's actually querying information that he has from the primary sources itself so i think this is a phenomenal breakthrough i'm going to have mike on before the end of this year And we're going to share kind of our own personal what we're up to with AI and then also make some predictions for twenty twenty six. But again, AI is just like. digital currency,
there's a freedom component to it and a technocracy component to it. And AI, if it's done centrally, if it's Sam Altman through the government under the heading of national defense, AI is horrible. AI is a tool for complete and total digital tyranny. But if it's a situation where You have the AI on your de-Googled phone, and you can search for anything from cures for cancer to how to build a gun or whatever it happens to be. Or you can do what I'm doing now. I think I'm going to get a second camera so I can show everybody the setup. But I just got a two hundred and sixty terabyte RAID hard drive system to actually half that because of the way that But this is my first RAID drive.
the system works. And all of the data that we have at Technocracy Atlas and that's powering a lot of the sites that we have moving forward, again, it's not based on, I didn't just install ChatGPT on my website. It's actually coming from primary reference material. So in the case of the Technocracy Atlas, we've got all of Patrick Wood's work. Over the decades, we have Courtney Turner and we have original technocracy documents and manuals. We have a ton of different books. And then kind of to augment that as an example, because believe it or not, he's critical to the technocratic agenda. We have the Epstein files. that were released by the AG earlier and then also by the house and then the
minute, which by the way should be happening any day now, whatever this new redacted list is, I'm going to download all of the documents and I'm going to put it into the AI and you're going to be able to chat with the AI as you can now with the existing material. Some of it's based on like Epstein's trust, will and trust and everything. And it provides a link and then you can click on the link and it'll actually pull up the actual page because I've also uploaded my own version of the original source documents. You can not only search it using the search bot, but you can then go to Excuse me. You can go to the actual original document as well. So a lot of stuff there I'm working on.
I'm not going to go through all of but I'm working on like ten different it now, things that I hopefully will be able to show you. on the episode with Mike just because I want to help show people what you can do. That's not, you know, it's not chat GPT where you don't have to worry about, you know, your, your kid committing suicide because they form a fake relationship with a, with an AI that was trained on Reddit, but, but how you can, use it to take back your own power. So I encourage you to check out brightbooks.brightlearn.ai. And again, very grateful for everything that Mike has done there because it's all free. I mean, his whole goal on this is to empower
people and to be able to, like in this instance, create your own books that are uncensored and for free. I mean, it's democratizing information. So So with that said, we'll get into the subject for tonight, which, you know, the thing is, I've been so busy. Oh, can you sell the PDF or give it away to build a customer list? That's a good question. I haven't read the contract on it. I mean, I think there's a, I know the legal language is, you know... Matt Ramey, Use it at your own risk, I mean he's not guaranteeing fully the accuracy of the information or whatever, but that's a good question something that you should take a look at or i'll take a look at before the next the next episode.
Matt Ramey, All right. So I've been working nonstop. So these six websites that we have through daylightfreedom.org all have to be production ready by the end of January. So I spend most of my time now coding these things. But every time I stick my head up and try to check in what's going on, I get infuriated because something's going on. And so this relates to tonight's talk in Congress. about Bitcoin's privacy problem being solved and confidential layer. So just yesterday, I believe, or maybe it was the day before. No, it was yesterday. So do you remember when the whole Genius Act was happening and
And people were all excited. So a big part of this, so early on when they pushed the Genius Act, there was opposition to it. In fact, there was a lot of hesitation in the It didn't pass, I think, House. the House initially. And and then finally, or maybe it was the Senate. They got it. They got it over the finish line. They compromised on something. A few Democrat senators put it over the finish line and then it got to the House and it was contentious. It was like coming down to like one or two votes at some point when they were going through this long procedure. And then a bunch of people like Marjorie Taylor Greene and Luna and everything else if we don't put this in, were like, well,
this could become a CBDC. I'll talk about this in a couple of Now, slides, but I've certainly beaten this horse to death. But the Genius Act is a backdoor CBDC. In fact, it's much worse than a CBDC. And it's the fact that it's technical and people don't understand it, which is how they've been able to kind of push this. But what they did was this guy, Tom Emmer, who's the Republican majority whip, who took funding from Sam Bankman-Fried, I believe millions of dollars, between his own campaign and PACs and everything else, didn't return the money. Anyway, Emmer puts up this Anti-CBDC Surveillance Act. i know i played it on there he's doing this like profile picture with him
with the american flag and everybody's on the the republicans are all lockstep on the house floor when they're debating this thing saying we're not going to become like communist china we're going to protect the you know financial the privacy of the american people which of course is a lie because the it's not the federal reserve it's actually congress that passed The Bank Secrecy Act and all of the Know Your Customer, AML stuff, Patriot Act, all of the financial surveillance comes from Congress, not the Federal Reserve. That's a separate issue. So he puts in this little show bill that says the US will not support even investigating research into CBDCs.
And I remember I'm watching this thing and Maxine Waters is there. And at one point, she was the chair of the Finance Committee and everything else. And her argument is, well, we shouldn't have this bill. America should at least be able to research what a CBDC might look like. She was the chair of the Finance Committee when the US did three CBDC pilots. We've done three CBDC pilots. We're not at the research phase. We're at the implementation phase. And this is one of the things I've talked about repeatedly about the hijacking of Bitcoin. We now know definitively it was hijacked. It was hijacked by a variety of people, but amongst them, Jeffrey Epstein,
who funded the Bitcoin core developers who cemented the changes to keep Bitcoin slow and expensive, to fund the narrative that Bitcoin is digital gold and not digital cash. And the actual specific developers, one of the developers that he funded in particular, went on to become the co-author of the white paper of something called Project Hamilton. Project Hamilton is a U.S. retail CBDC. This was a project between the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston and MIT. And it works. I actually spoke with a dev that worked on it. And actually a house member was just sourcing me today. I was trolling him and then he finally sourced me trying to claim that, you know,
now he's bringing up Project Hamilton and one point eight million transactions per second. But But I'm watching these people on the House floor and they're talking about, well, yeah, we need to have the ability to research a CBDC. And these people don't even realize that we have three that are production ready. So first of all, so let's put that. So the bill was kind of a meaningless thing. bill. But even though it was a meaningless bill, and even though people like Luna and Marjorie Taylor Greene didn't understand the Genius Act, didn't understand it was a backdoor CBDC, but they deluded themselves into thinking that this anti-CBDC surveillance act would save the day. Well...
The House just passed the National Defense Authorization Act today, and it got rid of the Anti-CBDC Surveillance Act. So if you're not paying attention yet, if you're still Believing that there's a pro-freedom crypto agenda going on. None of the pro-freedom stuff is going on. The developers that develop privacy technology, open source developers and so forth are in prison. And then the Anti-CBDC Surveillance Act, as meaningless as it was, they couldn't even retain that. So... That's important as it sets the stage as we talk about confidential layer, because there's overlap actually in, excuse me, all of these things.
And I mean, you know, so they don't even need a CBDC to surveil us anymore. In fact, they don't even need a stable coin anymore. And when you look at Bitcoin, every single Bitcoin transaction you've ever made has probably been tracked unless there are some very rare exceptions. So there are organizations like Chainalysis, Elliptic, Ciphertrace. These are government contractors that have mapped the entire blockchain. They know which wallets are yours. They know your transaction history and they know your balance. And it's not just the government that you need to worry about. Criminals are using the same transparency to build hit lists. And I wish I was being dramatic here,
There's a growing epidemic of home but I'm not. invasions targeting crypto holders, kidnapping, Torture sessions where they hold a wrench to your kneecaps until you give your seed They're known as wrench attacks. phrase. And in the worst cases, murder. There are situations where people give away their keys and get murdered anyway. So the very feature that was supposed to make Bitcoin trustworthy as public transparent ledger has become a weapon. It's a weapon the government uses to track dissidents and freeze accounts. It's a weapon that criminals use to identify their next victim. So you worked hard for that money. You believed in the promise of financial You took the risk.
You believed that Bitcoin was about the sovereignty. separation of money and state. And now you're caught in a surveillance trap where everyone from three-letter agencies to violent criminals can see exactly what you have and where it moves. So what do you do? Go back to banks that can freeze your account on a whim, accept that privacy is dead, Give up the dream of truly sovereign money? No. Fortunately, I mean, if you hold Bitcoin, and by the way, I'm still not a fan of Bitcoin because it was hijacked and it's still slow and But nevertheless, it is there. expensive. There's real purchasing power behind it. It's real. A lot of people are holding it and don't know what to do with it.
And now there's a solution. There's a way to make your crypto invisible. but not through mixing services that flag This is where Samurai Wallet and Tornado you as suspicious. Cash and others have gotten into trouble and where you can get into trouble. You know, if your coins were involved in a mixing service and some of the other coins were involved in allegedly illegal activities, then they can flag your coins. And there are many such cases of that as well. And so, you know, by the end of this episode, you'll know how it works because there's something now called confidential layer. And it's a technology that takes transparent blockchains like Bitcoin, Ethereum.
and then wraps them in cryptographic armor using Zeno. And I've talked about this before, it's been around for a while, but Canada, and I mean, they were working out the kinks, and so now it's actually ready for prime time. So... so i'm excited to to to be able to talk about this and like i said this is part one because i i need to understand the full magnitude because it looks like this thing could be a solution for well i have eight different use cases for it as we go as we go through this but um it's pretty pretty exciting so all right if we go through this give me one second here i'm trying so i actually created a music video
for um for this i created a confidential layer music video and it's it's processing so i'm just trying to check i wanted to have it done for the intro and that didn't happen so i'm just checking on something here behind the scenes to see if the status is coming along so depending on how long this podcast goes you may get a a brand new premiere of a music video that i think is really cool actually about it's one of my favorites um that's about confidential layer so all right so here we go so let's let's move through this uh before i do that this is i don't know if i'd call this an official confidential layer video but this kind of sets the stage i love this video so i'll play
it anyway to give you a snapshot We have achieved something unprecedented, a unified ideology, a world built on the pure, incorruptible foundation of Bitcoin, the money of the future. It is destiny, one cause, one resolve, the Bitcoin standard. Those who resist, who cling to shadow systems and contradictory truths, shall be silenced by the unstoppable engine of adoption. The Bitcoin standard is perfect. It is the future. We will prevail. twenty twenty five confidential layer went July, live, allowing Bitcoin and Ethereum users to bridge their coins onto a completely private by default protocol,
giving power back to the people. Whether traditional finance likes it or not, Bitcoin is now private. So, yeah, so this is so that's a big deal. I thought that was a great nod to to nineteen eighty four and also a nod to the fact that, you know. Michael Saylor has been a big he's the You know, lead guy pushing the hijack narrative. I show this clip of Roger Ver from You know, twenty twelve talking about Bitcoin as a solution to central banks and spreading economic freedom. And then there's Michael Saylor who says we're not going to compete with We're not going to compete with Visa. MasterCard. We're going to comply with know your customer.
and all that other stuff. He's actually been actively advocating for the idea that it shouldn't be private. So bad news for you, Michael, but good news for everyone in the world who is interested in having their Bitcoin private and preserving their privacy. So again, you know, to set the frame here, I mean, the trap here is set, right? The noose is tightening on financial surveillance. I've written articles on this. I'm not going to go through all of it, but our money's already tracked. It's already surveilled through the existing banking system, thirteen different programs, NSA data collection, banks working with AI. So the money in your bank account is already surveilled.
The stablecoins move things to yet another level and add tokenized fiat and add the ability for that to be tracked and frozen. And now you have the NDAA passed without the anti-CBDC surveillance act so you know this is kind of kind of the state of of where we are and and so you know i want to explain again for those who are new exactly how stable coins are backdoor cbdc's now no technically they're not central bank digital currencies but the important thing to understand is It's not the Federal Reserve who's driving
the financial surveillance. As I mentioned earlier, it's Congress through the Bank Secrecy Act, the Patriot Act, and through a variety of laws. Or in some cases, it's the executive branch with suspicious activity reports. So that's who you need to be worried about. I'm never defending or supporting the Federal Reserve. But in the realm of financial surveillance, this is a government agency. enterprise and it and it actually stems from congress so if you want to think about this one way so last year there was something like twenty seven trillion dollars worth of transaction volume using um using stable coins globally twenty seven trillion dollars that's more than
visa that's more than mastercard and it's growing it's expected to be a hundred and twenty trillion dollars per year by twenty thirty which is actually more transaction volume on stable coins than visa mastercard and direct deposit combined so if the government put out a cbdc or announced that they were launching a cd cbdc There would be all kinds of uproar. People would actually protest against it. People would would slow up the process. I mean, it would take years and years before a centrally issued CBDC could reach twenty seven trillion. And the reason I know this is that
China was the first to launch a CBDC. They got into this in twenty fourteen. They didn't launch it in twenty fourteen, but they've had one for a while. And the adoption hasn't been that great. And it's certainly nowhere near twenty seven trillion dollars. So what they did instead is they took something that was private that people were already using it using and put it under the control of Congress. and they've added now the cbdc level surveillance to it they've also added the federal reserve in to provide audits of the private companies issuing these things and then the kicker is one of the main reasons that they're doing it is to to then also force regulated stable coins
to be backed by u.s treasuries so our treasury secretary has said that he believes we'll be able to sell two trillion dollars worth of treasuries through this legislation so what you get through the genius act is CBDC level surveillance and you increase the debt and you fund more wars tyranny around the world. in U.S. So this is why I say it's actually worse than a centrally issued CBDC. And of course, there's been no opposition to it. I mean, I'm one of the only people that's actually been... publicly against the Genius Act. I remember being on a Mises Caucus podcast, and they had me on to interview me, and they had to dig through to find... I was the only one that was actually...
Because the crypto community has been co-opted by it, and a lot of people just don't know any better. These politicians probably don't understand it. And so this is essentially what's happened. Tether has already frozen one point eight But you have to understand, billion dollars worth of Tether. lot of this was done even before the genius act i mean these centrally issued stable coins have been working with law enforcement for quite some time circle which is the company behind usdc blacklists addresses all the time so you're using a cbdc with extra steps so this is not anything to be excited about we didn't win against cbdc's I ran for president to raise awareness on
this, told Vivek about it. He read my book, and he pushed Trump to come out against it here in New Hampshire. you must be happy. And people are like, oh, I'm like, no, we got rugged. People think that because somebody signs an executive order saying there's going to be no CBDC or doesn't pass a bill, ultimately, called the Anti-CBDC Act, that we're not going to get a CBDC. No, we actually got something worse. So... So yeah, so that's kind of where we are with the Genius Act. And then it doesn't stop there. I'll bring this up because it's not... I mean, Well, it is actually related to confidential layer as well. So CBDCs are tokenized fiat issued by a
central bank. It's a digital token that represents fiat currency issued by a central bank. A government-regulated stablecoin... is a digital token backed now by fiat issued by a private organization, but also with regulatory oversight by the government. But money only represents five percent of global assets. So stocks, bonds, commodities, real estate, so on and so forth, make up the rest. So money is only five percent of this. They're now actively working to pass legislation to tokenize all of our other assets, starting with financial assets, starting with your for one case and your ETFs and your stocks and your bonds. The largest segment, by the way,
of assets globally. It's called the Clarity Act. And what the Clarity Act is going to do is it's going to require your stocks and You're going to have to have KYC, bonds and everything. know your customer laws, anti-money laundering laws, now on your stocks and bonds and all of your other financial assets that will be tokenized in this centralized system. So the reason that I'm so... passionate about xeno in particular is that xeno allows you to tokenize assets in a way where it's not centralized it's not transparent you can hold those tokens in your own self-custody and you can trade them with anyone anywhere in the world
that's why This is a powerful technology. Somebody in the comment, you know, Bitcoin privacy solved. Just use Monero. Monero is great. Monero is a great option. But Monero doesn't help you tokenize the ninety five percent of other assets that aren't money. But I use Monero. I recommend Monero as well. But we're talking about a situation where when Klaus Schwab says you'll own nothing. This is the way that they're doing it. They're doing it by first legal contracts where they basically through legal agreements have transferred our economic our ownership and data and so on and ownership, so forth. And then on top of that, the next phase is to then add a digital token.
and tie that to these click wrap agreements that we've signed. And that's what the Clarity Act is. And so this is moving incredibly fast. So with Zeno, with Freedom Dollar, which I've done an episode on that, Freedom Dollar is a stable coin, but it's tokenized on Zeno. It's a token on Zeno that is backed by over collateralized Zeno. So you're not supporting treasuries. There's no tracking. It's completely and totally private. So that's one example of a tokenization project on Zeno. The next is Confidential Layer itself. Confidential Layer allows you to tokenize Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB, Solana, and many other cryptocurrencies,
even Tether, although I'm a little vague on how some of that works. But we're now talking about a couple of trillion dollars worth of purchasing power now that is tokenized. and represented by a token on Zeno that you can spend privately with low fees and with quick processing times. So this is a big deal. And I bring this up in the context where a lot of the tokenization that's of this, going on, the centralized tokenization is going on Like I just saw today, on platforms. I believe JP Morgan just did their first, not for their company, but for somebody else, they did a token sale and they used Solana. And a lot of companies, if you remember the ICO craze,
but a lot of companies today currently use Ethereum when they tokenize assets. Well, again, those are transparent blockchains. Those are transparent tokens that are going to be subject to all of this regulation. Now, thanks to confidential layer, you're going to be able to make private not only Ethereum and Solana, but tokens that are created on Ethereum and Solana. So the implications of what you can do with confidential layer is absolutely massive. So we're not even just talking about making Bitcoin private. We're talking about any asset tokenized on Ethereum and these other assets can also So this is a big deal and a be made private. big privacy infrastructure that is going
to potentially save the day here at this point. i want to talk a little bit about why this is is so important and you know it was interesting i was grateful again to be on this uh bitcoin matrix podcast yesterday because you know he was he was open to what i had to say and uh you know and one of the things that we talked about is you know for those who who believe that bitcoin was private well i mean if that's the case how does the us government have three hundred and twenty seven thousand bitcoin they're not mining them They didn't buy them on the open market. They stole them using civil asset forfeiture. And I have friends. Ian Freeman has millions of dollars worth
of Bitcoin that's part of the, quote, Bitcoin strategic reserve. Ross Ulbrich makes up a big chunk, the largest chunk, I believe, of these Bitcoin. And this was just two hundred thousand Bitcoin. Like four weeks ago, there was a big seizure recently within the last month that added, I think, one hundred and twenty five thousand Bitcoin. So when people say to me. Bitcoin is going to separate money in state. How's it going to separate money in state when the government can track it and then freeze it and confiscate it? So, you know, that's a bit of a conundrum for me. How are we going to defeat the state if the state now is becoming the largest
holder of this? And it's not just the US. China has one hundred ninety thousand The UK has sixty one thousand Bitcoin. Bitcoin. And as of right now, the governments have this Bitcoin through civil asset forfeiture. None of these governments are buying it. I guess El Salvador, but I don't have them on the list here. But it's negligible in terms of the percentage. So this is why privacy is so important. And, you know, and I've talked before and I'll talk even a little bit more about it. But, you know, if you're familiar at all with civil asset forfeiture, I mean, this is a... policy where the cops can pull you over and just basically steal your stuff without you even having to be convicted
and it's been abused in a major way in a whole variety of different cases and that's that's what they're using here for bitcoin so get pulled over with a speeding ticket and you know cop comes in and and uh you know you give them your wallet and and there you go they can seize the bitcoin and i laugh about it but you know I wouldn't put it past them. The only thing that would stop them is the cop's knowledge and ability to do it. But certainly, I encourage you to research the horror stories about civil asset forfeiture in but then you can even look at it general, already what's happened in Bitcoin. So Bitcoin is not private.
Pseudonymity is the way that it was described, which actually means not anonymous, actually, if you think about it. But the Bitcoin address isn't in your but the moment it touches anything with name, then every transaction is exposed and on a your identity, public ledger. So it's a false name, but it's not invisible. One link and then everything gets exposed. Every wallet, every balance, every transfer public and forever. And I know most of you have probably but I never know who is listening to heard this, this because it's still surprising because... I encounter people that have a two thousand and thirteen understanding of
what Bitcoin is. And a lot of it kind of relates to this. Well, you know, not your keys, not your coins, man. They can't take your keys. And, you know, but again, if they can find out that you've got the keys, I've yet to find the example. of the person that said, I'm not going to jail. I will rather hold on to my keys. I am not aware of a single case of that. And so when somebody tells you that, well, they can't stop my Bitcoin. somebody says, well, okay if they can't stop your bitcoin but they can threaten to throw you in jail and then they can put your bitcoin on a blacklist and then the number of people that you can actually trade with it is has been reduced substantially it's not
and in that regard it's not even fungible at least in its form in its non-confidential layer uh form so um in any event that's that's the situation and i'll tell you it gets worse these exchanges have really become complicit in it. You know, I'm old enough to remember when I thought Brian Armstrong of Coinbase was a good guy who was in Bitcoin for all the right reasons. I thought he was kind of a libertarian guy. And Coinbase has been a huge offender. I mean, they provide all kinds of information to Chainalysis and to government entities. And now he's prancing around Washington DC talking about market structure bills.
So just understand, And everything else. anything that comes out of a centralized exchange is automatically tagged at this point. So there isn't a centralized exchange in the United States where you've done KYC That information is automatically reported where you're safe. at this point in time. But, you know, to make matters worse, a lot of people don't even hold their own Bitcoin. So we went from peer-to-peer digital cash that you have in your own self-custody to now we have ETFs like BlackRock and Fidelity. And then we have the newest trend is like something out of the late dot-com
which is these Bitcoin treasury companies. era, So you invest in a company. So Michael Saylor goes out and raises money from the public and then buys Bitcoin with it in his corporate entity. And then he doesn't even have the Bitcoin in his custody. He uses a service like Coinbase. So you're like a couple of layers removed from the Bitcoin. You only have a claim on the Bitcoin. So if something happens to Michael Saylor, some other aspect of their business, uh you know he runs away with the coins whatever you're out of luck you don't even have these things remotely in your custody you're a couple of hops away so you have an iou on bitcoin and of course it's complete surveillance in in
this particular situation obviously all of the bitcoin through these corporate entities is completely tracked and when you dig into the uh etf agreements With BlackRock and Fidelity and others, they will tell you as a risk factor, you know, your crypto might be confiscated. So we talk about it since people like the digital gold narrative, since that's what they're trying to pimp it out as now. Well, what's what happened to gold? What happened to gold in the nineteen thirties under FDR was confiscated through an executive order. And when the gold was confiscated, if you had it in a vault or safety deposit box, that was immediately confiscated. you were obligated as an individual to In theory,
turn in your own gold, but a lot of people didn't. Twenty five percent of the gold supply remained in individual hands. Well, when it comes down to these financial instruments like ETF, you don't have a choice. Think about how easy it would be now for them to confiscate BlackRock or Fidelity or something like that, if all of a sudden it's a national security interest and the government wants to seize your Bitcoin. They'll go to exchanges first, and then they'll go to these Bitcoin treasury companies. They'll go to Bitcoin mining companies, which is a whole other aspect of this that has happened recently, which is that mining companies are now
using KYC. So when they mine and win Bitcoin through mining, they're actually reporting that and flagging those Bitcoin? it used to be that there was an I mean, opportunity for you to mine and that's the way you could have Bitcoin that no one could track. Well, now at this point, most of the mining is happening through large corporate players. And a lot of those big, large corporate players are tagging it with KYC information. So that's not even a safe out area anymore. And this stuff is being watched in a variety of ways.
In fact, there was an interesting thing Cynthia Loomis, who's been pushing this Bitcoin strategic reserve, I think it was at the beginning of the year or a few months ago or whatever, was sent out this frantic email saying, we don't even know if the US might hey, have sold its Bitcoin. Somehow only the US government can manage to lose track of Bitcoin. something that's on a public ledger. And it turns out it looks like they didn't sell it, but you have different branches of the federal government that actually have Bitcoin. So you have the IRS, you have the FBI, you have the DEA. And so you have these different groups that are holding on to some of the Bitcoin.
But you have three firms that you should be familiar with. Chainalysis is the worst. Chainalysis, so the story behind this is... In two thousand and fourteen, there was a hack on what was the largest Bitcoin exchange in the world at the time called Mt. Gox. And so you had at least I believe this is right with the story Kraken, which is a another crypto exchange. One of the co-founders of Kraken, as I understand it, decided that he wanted to spend some time trying to track down the hacker to see if he could find the stolen coins. And then started working with law enforcement and so on and so forth. And then ended up leaving Kraken and started Chainalysis,
which is now a government contractor that works with governments and law enforcement agencies all over the world. And they've been doing it for eleven years. So when I say that they have mapped out people's Bitcoin, first of all, as everyone likes to say, there will only be twenty one million Bitcoin. there's only seven transactions per But at the same time, Well, second. it turns out it's not really that hard to track this stuff. And I think even think about it, if we were in two thousand and nine, people weren't even thinking about AI. Right. I think part of the theory was at the time that if people were doing twenty five thousand transactions per second on
Bitcoin, that it would be hard to trace. Because this is like this is pre AI Right. now. That's not an issue. Now you can put some GPUs on that and you can track that. But I think people had a sense of confidence that it would be hard to trace based on the volume. Well, the volume never got there. The volume was artificially capped. And so now you have companies like Chainalysis, Elliptic, CypherTrace that work with law enforcement and then get information from exchanges and other centralized sources. And this is bigger than people think because somebody might say, well, hey, I didn't use an exchange. But if you did a transaction with somebody and that person was targeted by law enforcement,
one of the things that they do in these proceedings is they try to get people to identify who their counterparties are. So even if you never used a centralized exchange, if you did a transaction... Somewhere along the way where either your name was identified, even if it was with somebody that, you know, wasn't a centralized entity. And when you understand the extent to which they've been mapping this out over eleven years, you begin to realize how perilous this idea of having private Bitcoin, you know, native private Bitcoin is. So this stuff is traced across wallets and exchanges. All of these profiles are built. And here's the kicker. There's no warrant needed. There's no subpoena needed.
And I've explained this before. It's... There are now private detectives that can get certified in chain analysis. So now people that are going through divorces, people are going through business disputes, hire a private investigator. That private investigator is trained in chain analysis and then has access to the chain analysis So now there are many cases where in a divorce proceeding, the spouse can get more information over a longer timescale regarding Bitcoin transactions than they can from a bank, which usually only holds the records for about seven years. So again, if you've heard this,
but what I have found is that the I apologize, overwhelming majority of people are unaware of most of what I'm talking about They're not aware of the magnitude of the right now. surveillance and the effort that has gone into this over an extended period of time. so so yeah so this is essentially permanent surveillance one kyc equals a lifetime track so all this is building up obviously to why confidential layer is so absolutely critical i mean to give an example on this um so exchange data is is shared with governments on request no
warrant needed in most cases and at this point they voluntarily comply There's not even pushback. That's one of the things that's disappointing about this at this point. I mean, even some of the big tech companies like Apple or Google at least will try to fight, in some cases, the government when they're trying to subpoena and make a request for data. But most of these crypto exchanges have actually become incredibly compliant around this. And this was a whole kind of combination of, well, you know, they threatened to sue the exchanges for violating SEC laws, and then in exchange for that not going, you know, as harshly as it could, they're more eager and willing to share your data.
The IRS sent out ten thousand letters to Coinbase in twenty nineteen alone just based on data that the exchange handed over. Right. So you really do need to to understand If if you have crypto on an exchange, this. it's a bad idea for a whole number of reasons. Historically, most crypto exchanges have collapsed, even the big ones. I mean, we're talking about Mt. Gox, Quadra, CX, I believe, which is a big Canadian exchange, FTX, So these exchanges are not required to right? show a proof of reserves. So they're doing kind of all kinds of
shenanigans and fractional reserve things. So there used to be a thing in the movement where every, you know, once a year people would do a thing where they would take all of their coins off At once to kind of stress test the exchanges to see if they actually had the Nobody even does any of this stuff keys on there. anymore. So, you know, and I know a lot of people are like, well, it's easier, whatever. They don't know. You know, would you leave your well, would you leave your gold bars, you know, somewhere where degenerate gamblers could could gamble with it and the IRS could track it? particularly if you have any material you want to get it off as soon amount, as you can.
But it turns out one of the one of the cheapest ways that people can go about stealing bitcoin other than being the government and using civil asset forfeitures called a it's called a wrench attack because you know a five dollar wrench somebody can break your kneecap and basically force you to give up your keys and give up your wallet and this is exactly what happened so you know all the cryptography in the world doesn't go up very well against somebody with a gun or a wrench or a knife or somebody that's kidnapped you or your family. And this is an increasing problem. I'll share some of the stories, but they're gruesome, what's going on with these wrench attacks.
Well, so remember, all of this is public information. These transactions are on a public platform. blockchain and by the way i mean think about it this way so so you have chain analysis and now there's a database and now you have private investigators you know you have people that have access to this information that may or may not be very high in integrity i mean it's what would it take for a private eye gaining access to this database to be willing to sell some of this information. And there's even some issues with these hardware wallets. I can't remember which one it was. It's not that the hardware wallet got hacked, but I think it was Shopify or whatever
the other e-commerce thing was hacked. And so then the list of all of the people that have hardware wallets was sold on the dark web. And so now all of a sudden you have that going on. So you've got Chainalysis doing what Then you've got the dark web they're doing. where people are connecting the dots and connecting information. And now with AI and everything else. And so you have to worry about the government and you have to worry about a wrench attack. you can spend thousands of dollars on a I mean, You can have military grade encryption. hardware wallet. You can have multi-signature security. You can have an air gap device that never touches the... internet and it doesn't matter a five
dollar wrench breaks that so so again it's as a matter of physical security in addition to government tyranny you want to get out of the transparent ledger business and this has become a thing home invasions targeting crypto holders are up three hundred percent in the last two years they're not random burglaries it's not there's a general increase in three hundred percent these are explicitly targeted i'll give you a couple of examples in january of twenty twenty five in france david balland the co-founder of ledger was kidnapped with his partner so
armed criminals demanded ten million dollar ten million euros in crypto and when the ransom wasn't paid fast enough they cut off his finger Well, here's a guy who's a ledger co-founder. Ledger makes hardware wallets. He's a high-profile crypto executive. And you're dealing with an armed kidnapping and severed finger as a coercion tactic. He was in captivity for multiple days before a police rescue. There's another case. May of this year, in New York City, an Italian Bitcoin holder was held captive for three weeks. not hours not days three weeks of beatings sleep deprivation and psychological
torture all to access his crypto wallet he sustained beatings psychological terror and coercion and he did make partial transfers forced under torture so again you know having your keys, how meaningful is having your keys if everyone knows you have your keys and if the government can throw you in jail and if somebody can beat you and deprive you of sleep and torture you for your coins. So it's a significant problem that people need to be aware of. One other, March, twenty twenty four guy named Anson Q was
He was the CEO of Ellison Steel. He paid the ransom, approximately two hundred million in the currency there. He cooperated and they tortured him anyway. And then they killed him and then they killed his driver. You know, and then there's another story of a guy that was chopped up in a suitcase, so on and so forth. But hopefully at this point. The point is. You're getting the point. This is not a safe situation from twenty nineteen to twenty twenty four. A guy named Gilbert St. Felix led a crew doing home invasions across multiple states, pistol whipping, zip ties, threats to shoot children. He ended up getting forty seven years in
federal prison. But, you know, again, do you think this is the only home invasion crew targeting crypto? So remember that name, Gilbert St. Felix. So anyway, hopefully by this point, the case for making your transparent blockchains, Bitcoin, Ethereum, and so forth private, hopefully makes a little bit of sense. I guess I didn't go through the slides there properly. Sorry about that. In any event, so now we have the privacy solution. Now we have confidential layer. which is, again, it's a privacy. Confidential Layer uses Zeno,
but there's another blockchain involved called Bridgeless. And as a recap, if you're not familiar with Zeno, Zeno uses the same privacy technology that In fact, the creator, Monero uses. one of the creators of Zeno, Andrei Sibelnikov was a creator of CryptoNote, which is actually the technology behind Monero. So he is a true OG in the privacy space. So it uses rig signatures and stealth addresses to make any transparency Essentially, invisible. what's going on with Zeno is you're taking Monero-level privacy and applying it to
tokens that are then applied... to other assets. So I'll go into a little bit of So ring confidential transactions. this. Think of it like this. If you're signing a document, instead of your signature being the only one on the page it's mixed in with a ring of other signatures and so anyone looking at that document knows one of the signatures are real but they can't tell which one that's what rigged signatures do with your transaction it gets mixed in with others making it mathematically impossible to trace which coins moved from where to where and the interesting thing about xeno is The way Zeno itself is treated is the same as tokens created on Zeno. So if I'm sending you Zeno or I'm
sending you Freedom Dollar or tokenized it all works the same within Zeno. Bitcoin, So it's a pretty straightforward process as to how Confidential Layer works. The first is you burn the transparent asset. Then you mint a confidential asset on Zaino. Then you transact privately. And then you burn the confidential token and then redeem the transparent version out the other end. I mean, I don't know. I'm not going to go into too much of the technical detail now. This is part one of however many we'll
But I wanted to give you the basic go through. mechanics of how this works. And it uses something called... Another blockchain called Bridgeless, which handles this, which basically when you are locking your Bitcoin or Ethereum or whatever it happens to be, your key is broken up into multiple pieces. They're called threshold signatures. So no one has your private key. It's broken up into many different pieces and pretty cool technology. I mean, it's taken a while. They've been working on confidential layer for a while. That's the thing about... this entire privacy space i mean the same with xeno xeno's been around since but actually there was a predecessor project
to that i mean xeno's kind of like ten years old in a way the original idea behind it and confidential layer has been in the works for quite some time so there was quite an effort to figure out how to do all of this in a way that doesn't involve any third parties or any kind of you know mixing service the way some of these other things work i mean this this stuff can't be stopped which is critically important so and this is where as we go through it this is why i'm doing this as a multi multiple part series because i'm unclear on on how much of this is done i know because i've done it that you can convert your Bitcoin to a private version of Bitcoin,
which is the ticker. So it's BTCX. So you can do this actually within the edge wallet. And that's one of the things I'll show you a video from Bree, who I've shown some of her other videos using the ZBEC debit card and others. It's really easy. If you're using the Edge wallet, you literally just swap Bitcoin for BTCX right within the wallet and you're done. If you're going through confidential layer, there's more of a multi-step process and you have to pick which coin you have and which blockchain. It's a multi-step process. And as I said, I'm not prepared to walk through all of that yet because I don't even know. I wasn't aware that Solana, for instance, was already on the list.
When I first started looking at this, it was Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash and Ethereum. And now it's expanded to BNB, which is Binance and Tone or however you pronounce it. It's the Telegram token. Freedom Dollar is coming soon. I'm not entirely sure how that's going to work. So these are questions that I have. Are you going to be able to actually bridge Tether into Freedom Dollar? So I'm still, again, what I've learned this week, because they've actually just launched their own token called Clone. So Confidential Layer has a token called Clone. They had a whole process for signing up for it. And I would be honest with you,
I don't have any clone. I didn't participate in that process. I'm not saying it's a bad thing. I just didn't have time to participate in But they've just launched, that. I guess the token is now available. on an exchange and that just happened yesterday and so there's a lot of hype around that because if you actually hold some of this clone token you earn some of the transaction fees i think forty percent of the transaction fees generated through the network go to token holders and all that and so this is this is why there's been kind of a big push around that but i you know just as a matter of disclosure i don't own any of the uh i don't know any of this But I might at some point.
I'm definitely going to dig into more of the specifics around how that works. So you take your Bitcoin and you wrap it into your BTCX and then you can And the beauty of this is I did spend it. a podcast, I don't know, and um actually if you go to bear with me i'm going to pull this up if you go to freedomforge.io i believe we have a guide on there for let's see do we not have a guide up there
hold on i thought we had oh yeah sell with sell with xeno so you can use any coin payment gateway so um actually let me i'm gonna pull up a window just to remind you this by the way either next week or probably the week after i'm gonna do a full refresh on um freedom forge so freedom forge is in kind of the alpha stage so i've got a whole bunch of uh development work and improvements that I am making to that site as well, including, and I talked about this in the last podcast, I'm doing a whole new rethinking about
training materials for this. because I've done a lot of workshops and we've gotten a lot of feedback here and in other places. The short videos are great, but there are a lot of people that are brand new to crypto and the two to three minute video actually isn't enough. You really need to walk through what is this? What are your private keys? What is a wallet? You have to actually explain... the basic terminology. So I've been researching and trying to figure out a way to make kind of an online course. And I'm trying to figure out how to basically offer different learning paths depending on your knowledge level.
So if you're a novice and you've never had a crypto wallet before, then it goes into more detail. And then maybe there's even a written guide. If you're somebody that's native to crypto, then maybe a two or three minute video. So I want to have basically instructional materials in multiple formats. to be helpful to people and let's all be soliciting requests from you guys as to uh what would be helpful for you in terms of making it easier for you to learn how to do this i you know on the last podcast somebody said yeah no it'd be great for me to have this in writing so i you know i started this we have guides here but the guides need uh improvement their guides are not adequate for
for people that are completely new. But anyway, if you can see this at FreedomForge.io, you can click on sell with Zaino and there's a point of sale system called AnyCoin. And what AnyCoin allows you to do is if you have a WordPress plugin and millions and millions of websites around the world use WordPress, it's the number one platform for hosting websites. And so if you have your own WordPress website, you can get a free e-commerce program called WooCommerce that you can integrate right into your WordPress site. And then you can integrate any coin into that. And now your store can accept Zeno, Freedom Dollar, and then either now or soon,
all of the confidential layer tokenized solutions as well. So you'll be able to take... private Bitcoin, private Ethereum, private Solana and everything. So this is huge. So when people say, well, how can I spend this? So now there are millions of merchants around the world that can use this free plugin And accept these cryptocurrencies on your I mean, at TheAaronDayShow.com, own site. I put together this demo set. I think I have a coffee mug or a Free Roger coffee mug or something. something, But I think I walked through on the episode how I set that up. and um so you know so the good news is a lot of people like well how can i get you know freedom dollar
how can i get btcx or whatever one of the ways that you can get some of this is by selling products and services through your own website and through the any coin payment gateway that's actually fairly easy to do so so anyway so that's that's good news on that front let me pop back here so like i said more information coming over the next couple weeks about exactly how many of these coins uh you can use and and what the status of that is um so again you know we already talked about this i'm a big fan of monero i use monero uh love the monero community in fact i
was just on the monerotopia podcast with doug tooman on saturday and i will be speaking at the narratopia in mexico city that's coming up in february so i actually encourage you to check out mineratopia but there are a lot of people in monero that are that are kind of maximalists and and i guess my point on this is that it's they're different use cases in the same way that you know ethereum allows you to tokenize other assets and you can't do that on bitcoin this is essentially a way to tokenize assets with monero level privacy so they're very Very compatible. I was going to say, where do we submit requests or comments for info regarding Xeno tutorials?
It's a very good question. I believe if you go to daylightfreedom.com, I should have a better place for this. Or you can just DM me on X. I'm at Aaron Arday. That's probably the best way. I can guarantee you that that will get there. I'm in the process of updating all of I've got so many email forms and the... everything else that I'm in the process of... consolidating that so if you want to get me for right now just go through x so uh so anyway so use monero and xeno but but understand that the real value of xeno is in tokenizing other assets and that's critically important and that's what makes it possible to make bitcoin private and ethereum private now
We're talking about a couple of trillion dollars worth of buying power. So I want you to understand how big a deal this is, because this is a lifeline for a lot of people. A lot of people are stuck. I mean, you might have looked at this and said, hey, well, I know there are a lot of people that have never moved their Bitcoin. I know a lot of people just because of having been in early in New Hampshire, once they realized that it wasn't anonymous, because I think they had the original expectation that it's anonymous. they didn't move any coins. They didn't buy anything. They've sat on it because they don't want the tracking. And so believe it or not, there are a lot more cases of that
than you might believe. So this ability to tokenize and make Bitcoin and these other cryptocurrencies private is a big deal that will help a lot of people. And I hope a lot of people learn about it as quickly as possible. Although it's tough, as I said earlier, at least from what I've read, X is actually kind of shadow banning Crypto related content. So we've got to go through the game of figuring out what words you can use and what words you can't use with respect to posting about even these things. But I'm going to be putting out some content in addition to this video, which I'll put into different segments and everything else. As I said,
at some point in the next few weeks, Freedom Forge will be updated with a whole guide on how to walk through all of this. But what I will show you is a very short video of Brie showing you how easy it is within the edge wallet to convert your Bitcoin to Bitcoin is not private, but I'm going to show you how to take your Bitcoin and make it private right inside your Edge wallet. Edge now integrates Bridgeless, which powers confidential layer, letting you convert your Bitcoin for a private version called BTCX that lives on Zeno, a privacy focused blockchain. In your Edge wallet, you're going to click on swap crypto.
You're going to click on the source wallet. That'll be Bitcoin. The receiving wallet will be BTCX, Zeno. You'll enter in the dollar amount. Edge will come up with the best exchange rates, and then you'll swipe to confirm. Most importantly, you stay fully self-custodial, no third parties, just private Bitcoin right in your Edge wallet. Every transaction remains fully shielded. Amounts, sender, recipients remains totally private, yet still verifiable. And BTCX behaves like Bitcoin in value and supply, but lives natively on Zeno. So there you have it. That's about as straightforward of an explanation as you can get. And I know for a lot of people, if you don't have an edge wallet,
then you need to know how to download the edge wallet and go through that entire process. But once you do have an edge wallet, or if you do have an edge wallet, that's actually how easy it is to convert to BTCX right within the wallet. I discussed actually doing this podcast a month ago, but originally... you had to have at least five hundred dollars worth of Bitcoin with an edge wallet to be able to do the swap. And they lowered that to I don't know if it's twenty dollars now or maybe it's even less than that. So that was that was one of the things that I was waiting for. So that's exciting. So if you if you already do have an edge wallet, I encourage you to check it out.
It's as easy as adding another coin and doing a swap. right within the wallet and this is why i said so that's by far the easiest and then once we get into you can go to confidential layer.com but it's kind of more of a multi-step process and so it's going to take me some time to put together guides to kind of to walk through that although for most people i mean if you're not already like heavily in crypto, for most people, you're going to want to use Edge Wallet. And I know Bitcoin.com as well is going to have similar functionality to the way the Edge Wallet works. So I'm going to walk through eight use cases for or eight reasons to go confidential. I mean, there are certainly more.
And hopefully I already made the case for early on but you know probably the first and most important one is to protect yourself uh from wrench attacks right i mean you don't want to get your finger cut off or get chopped up or stuffed into a suitcase or find yourself spending three weeks uh being held up that that's probably a big one uh government seizure protection you should be worried about um it's it's surprising to me that people I mean, still trust government in twenty twenty But I mean, five. since I know personally people that have their Bitcoin in the quote strategic reserve. And these are some of the smartest people in crypto. These are like OG smart people.
These are not even just your average user. So government seizure is something to worry about. And if you believe, well, if you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear, you should research how civil asset forfeiture works. If it's something that the government can track, you have a reason to fear and it's independent of your behavior. Another reason to do this is private DeFi, the ability to do trading without surveillance. I mean, that's a big issue for people that are big traders in decentralized finance. And then moving forward, Freedom Dollar certainly is a great opportunity. I think people are not fully appreciating
how strategically important Freedom Dollar is. But when I talk about one of the things with medical tourism, that uh that we talk about is it's growing in popularity a hundred billion dollars a year but one of the challenges with medical tourism is how do you pay for medical tourism you know thailand is the number one location for medical tourism but if you use your using your credit card You have a fifteen thousand dollar procedure in Thailand. You know, your bank is going to look at you sideways if you try to do a big transaction overseas. Anytime there's an overseas transaction, it gets flagged. PayPal doesn't offer any real hope here either.
PayPal has been known to, you know. debank essentially medical providers and to block transactions. And then you end up in a situation where you try to use PayPal to buy medical tourism services and you lose your PayPal account. And wire transfers are an absolute nightmare. And it's for a whole variety of reasons. I mean, the banking system is broken, but trying to actually send value through wire transfers overseas is expensive. It's time consuming. And, you know, there's a lot of it. You're going to expect a lot of delays. You're going to expect people to ask a lot of questions. It's going to be very invasive. So this is one of the sticking points. So now...
since it's a global medical tourism marketplace, the dollar is still, like it or not, the global reserve currency. So the ability to use a private stablecoin So now for a couple of cents in transaction fees, you can pay with Freedom Dollar anywhere in the world. And whoever receives that with the medical provider now has something that is in the reference value that they're interested in. and it can't be seized like Tether or And, you know, USDC. Anyway, enough about Freedom Dollar. But Freedom Dollar now is going to be part of this entire confidential layer ecosystem, which is going to be huge news.
Some other reasons, business payments. This is another one. And again, businesses, you know, I mentioned it in the context of OSR, but anybody that does business internationally is going to benefit from doing this because, you know, the U.S. has their set of rules. And other countries are equally generally pretty dystopian about this. And companies like Chainalysis are global. I mean, they're working with Interpol, they're working with all of these law enforcement agencies. And so if you're doing international business, this is going to be a great way to break the KYC chain. It's also an ability to do anonymous donations. And, you know, it's funny, that may not sound like that may sound
like a nefarious thing, but here's an interesting story. So I was talking to a guy who's a who's a lawyer, a pretty high profile lawyer. And he's been fighting big pharma. He's been working on a lot of these He's been trying to go after Pfizer. lawsuits. And I mean, because obviously at this point, there's more than an abundance of information about Pfizer. fraud and neglect broadly in the healthcare system. And so he finds some of the most egregious cases and his firm group takes on these cases where they have a real compelling case. The problem is
The process of dealing with the U.S. legal system is a disaster, and the deck is stacked against you. So if you have to raise money, you can raise money for lawsuits. It's its own kind of class of thing. But Big Pharma and this healthcare complex, if they can find out who you are, if you're donating to this, they'll... There are cases of retribution. This has been a problem for him. He's actually had people that wanted to make donations, but there was no way to make the donations in a private way. And so there's been kind of a chilling effect on the ability to get funding to go after really bad actors through lawsuits. And that's just one small example.
of where an anonymous donation would be important, but there are many others. And so that's kind of the, that's a list of, an initial list of eight. There are certainly more. But the use cases here are profound. So as I said, Edge Wallet integrates confidential layer. And Edge Wallet is a private wallet. You have your keys in your own possession. And there are a lot of other interesting features. There's a distress feature where... Let's say you're the victim of a wrench attack. Somebody kidnaps you or whatever. You can enter a different passcode to get into your wallet than your normal one. And it will take you to a,
you can have like different wallets. You may have a bulk of your crypto. in one wallet and then you have this other kind of not fake wallet but small wallet that you put a small amount of crypto in so if you're if a wrench attack comes your way you enter the code for that wallet and so they can drain your funds but the funds are like you know whatever you put fifty dollars in that wallet so there are a lot of uh really user-friendly and interesting features that are in edge wallet and so i encourage you to check that out in fact i'll probably have paul pooey on here i haven't had him on here he's the ceo of edge wallet that i've uh gotten to know him pretty well over the
years and we've been to a lot of conferences together and uh so he's he's the guy behind uh edge wallet and i will say the whole the whole ecosystem uh in connected to xeno uh they're great people uh vic from cake wallet i recommend cake well cake wallet does not have a confidential layer in it yet but i'll check with vic i wouldn't be surprised if uh they'll probably add it at some point as well in fact cake was the first wallet outside of the official xeno wallet uh to have xeno so vic is he actually owns monero.com uh cake wallet started out as a monero wallet and and so the cake wallet has a whole bunch of different privacy coins
in it so I actually recommend Cake Wallet. I recommend Edge Wallet. And I recommend Bitcoin.com Wallet, which is Bitcoin.com Wallet is an OG wallet that has been around for forever. I think there have been something like I mean, fifty million downloads of the Bitcoin.com I mean, it is one of. Wallet. the largest out there, and they've already integrated Freedom Dollar, and they will soon be integrating Confidential Air. Well, think about that. So most of the people that have Bitcoin.com wallets got Bitcoin.com wallets because they have Bitcoin. so now they're going to be able to figure out how to make their bitcoin private within the bitcoin.com wallet i have to figure out you know so this
is again this is why this is going to be a multi-stage approach because part of this for me is learning because there have been so many recent advancements with confidential layer i'm going to do this in chunks and maybe they won't be you know full episodes about confidential layer maybe i'll just make it a segment i'm even thinking about reorganizing the show so that it's maybe we have three or four different you know, segments every time instead of what I have been doing, which is kind of a large, longer talk or have one speaker on one you know, dedicated topic. I think we have so much going on now in so many different areas that I might break it up into different segments,
but expect fully expect a full tutorial, uh, on edge wall and a full tutorial on how to use confidential layer through the confidential web layer website, uh, and also, uh, bitcoin.com and, and all of these things as they become available and, and they will, whatever I do here ultimately will end up on freedomforge.io available for free for anyone to be able to access. And so for whoever in the comments, like I said, I do hope you do, uh, or you can put your comment here too um so i i cycle one um you know you can even put your comments here if you want uh here's another comment from john ferrari who says step by step for
me in writing Great. You know what? The writing. Good luck finding written crypto instruction guides. This is a thing that for me, having done these workshops, there is a disconnect. A lot of crypto... is designed for people that are already in crypto or it makes an assumption about knowledge level and or the way that people process information i will tell you something that i'm working on right now kind of to veer off a little bit on the ai path right now what i'm working on is i'm taking all of my podcasts, and I am running them through a video AI model so that you're going to be able to search the videos,
not just search the text in the videos, but you will be able to be like, what did Aaron say about confidential layer? And it'll actually pull up the timestamps and take you right to the part of the video where I talk about those things. This is my next project that I'm doing to kind of rev up the air and day show. And a lot of what I'm doing, I actually like having these six sites cause I, you know, I can experiment with new technology and once I see how something works. So, but the idea there is with these materials, you know, you have a chat bot where you can ask a question and it will pull up a text answer and and it will take you to the video so what i'm interested in is figuring out
kind of multi-modal ways of providing many different ways to get access to the information so that it can be you know customized based on individual learning patterns people learn different ways some people are auditory some people are visual some people and so from my perspective i've been thinking a lot about well hey how do we how do we harness the power of ai to if you know if I'm trying to get a message out yeah not everybody's gonna listen to a five-hour podcast this is why I do memes I do songs you know now books you know we for the last two I don't know if I'm gonna do a book today I don't think I gave so Mike Adams is indexed he has all my podcast transcripts so when you
generate a book using his system It may actually refer to and use these podcasts as a source. But this information from today isn't in So I suspect if I did a confidential his thing. I wouldn't think that it would have layer book, up-to-date information about that. So in any event, that's my little sidetrack information. On that, I mean, the rest of this is... Again, at this point, what I'd like to say... Maybe I've overdone it or repeated it, but you can't repeat enough how important privacy is. Privacy is the number one tool that we
have to fight this overall technocracy. It is absolutely. One hundred percent critical and confidential layer may be the biggest thing to happen. To privacy so far, simply simply because we're dealing with trillions of dollars of assets now. that can be made private. I mean, it's even more than trillions of dollars, So it's, you know, right? it's the market cap of Bitcoin and Ethereum and Solana and all those other things, plus the market value of all of the tokens that are created on Ethereum and Solana. So this is actually a pretty profound deal. I should probably do some research to calculate or see to estimate how much potential financial value
is out there that now because of confidential layer can be made private and traded anywhere in the world. It's kind of a big deal. And I really do appreciate and like the the nineteen eighty four themed short video. that they did i apologize for this while we're doing this i'm going to see if my uh i may not have time to do it get this i would like to play this i like the song that i came up with for this uh confidential layer episode and let me see how far how we how far we are in oh hold on we're getting close oh wait a minute I might be able to... Oh,
that one's not good. I'm getting close. I should be able to render this music video about confidential layer. In fact, there's only one missing segment here. So let me get that going. And then... Let me try that. We should be able to, in maybe fifteen minutes or so here, have the world premiere of, I guess we're calling it Confidential Layers Sets Us Free. I'll come up with a different title for it than that, but this is one of my favorite songs so far. And it kind of keeps along the Nineteen Eighty-Four theme. from the short video that I, uh,
that I played earlier. So, so bear with me on that. Uh, the rest of this here is just, the other thing I want to say is, Oh, you know, I mentioned it at the beginning again, but, um, and I need to reach out to everyone. I'm not exactly sure even how to do Maybe I'll, this. maybe I'll reach out to all of them, but this above phone, uh, that we have, which I've got mine sitting in the other room, the de-Google phone, um, um you know we'll put all these wallets on here it'll have the xeno wallet and then you know maybe we'll put edge and cake and bitcoin.com on it so that you know when people get this phone You'll have a phone that has a VPN on it. It has Mike's AI on it.
It has direct links to open the six different websites for daylight and then the ability to use confidential layer within those wallets. I mean, this is a great way to start to get people kicked off. I mean, now all of a sudden, now you've got privacy through your phone and now you have a half a dozen, ten different tools that you can use. so i'm excited about this i'd love to see in the comments i mean are you guys excited about the the prospect of a de-googled phone is that something you might be interested in taking a look at um i obviously want to gauge gauge the interest level but we're going to put quite a bit of effort into this between now and the end of january i i
also did an interview i'll post this later with uh hakim on his show which i thought was a really good interview i think we went for couple of hours but I really like Hakeem he is definitely in in this for the right reason reasons and he's very committed to to privacy and has done a great job so far I mean he's even telling me about you know you know he's got to get a facility now because of the demand for these phones they are really They're really ramping this up. So I hope people are excited about this, and I hope this is a way that we can get people quickly onboarded to privacy in a broader sense, not even just the cryptocurrency sense.
So the way that FreedomForge is set up, I've set it up as what are the technocratic threats and then what are our counters to those threats? And really, there are three big threats that confidential layer addresses. Government surveillance threat, the criminal targeting from on-chain visibility threat, physical danger from wrench attacks threat. I mean, actually, we talked about the wrench attacks, but then there's also just getting hacked in a non-physical way. So there are kind of two layers of – three layers of having your stuff stolen here. Just wish you could do a tap-to-pay with a Graphene OS phone,
maybe something they could look into. Yeah. Well, so I think the issue with this – so I talked to him about it. The ZBEC card works on tap-to-pay. And it uses Google Pay, Google Pay or Apple Pay. So unfortunately, it's a Google phone, so it doesn't have that that capability. So so unfortunately, in this case, you wouldn't be able to use the phone for that application. You can still, of course, use your ZBAC credit card number and so forth for making online purchases. So. All right, so with that said, know just so stay tuned on this i mean for action items you know like i
said you download the edge wallet and and uh you know you can you can play around with that otherwise stay tuned over the next couple of weeks and freedomforge.io will have these detailed guides and if you want i'll send out links now if you want to join the q a while this video is rendering All right. Link to live Q&A. And if you want to put in the comments as well, any suggestions that you might have for what format you would like to see for
these... educational materials. I mean, you can put them here as well. Or if you want to hop on live and that might even be better so we can talk in real time. And, you know, it's hard to capture sometimes in a comment or whatever, but to kind of walk through, I want to hear what people's pain points are. I know a lot of people have pain points, believe me. i hear it all the time and it it's frustrating for me because my time is uh you know i haven't been sleeping a lot lately because i'm trying to get a lot of this stuff done and then you know i'll get you know in a day three or four or five people that reach out with how do i set this up how do i do this and that's why
i'm like okay clearly the materials are not they're not adequate and and i want to figure out rather than handle each of these things one at a time, unless it's a real quick thing. If it can't be addressed by one of these short videos, then I don't have enough time to do it. So I want to actually spend some time doing a really good job of making the materials together. And so what I'm thinking about is just, I guess, walk through What's going through my mind is, you know, there's there's like you could have like an online course, not, you know, have to pay for it. But I mean, of course, in the sense that you can see and click through to the various chapters. So it'll go into a lot of detail.
I mean, it'll start at the very beginning explanation of how the wallets work. I mean, it's not just here. Download this. maybe with the background material. But, you know, But this way. You can choose your own adventure. So if you're already familiar with the wallet or you already have the wallet and you just want to know how to do the conversion to BTCX, then you can go right through to that section. Obviously having a written guide. I will say that the challenge with this, because I've thought about this a lot, part of the reason I haven't done this already is simply that based on my experience of doing these workshops, every time we would do a workshop,
I would have to completely change the presentation. And I would have to change the presentation because there was something fundamentally changed about the wallet, something changed about the actual mechanics of the process of signing people up. And so then I'm like, well, I can't even put together training materials because if you have out-of-date training materials, it's actually worse than having no training materials. If you give somebody something that's inaccurate or out-of-date, uh then you're actually going to cause more problems because the person's going to get frustrated and think that it's their fault and they're going to think that they're stupid or can't figure out
how to do it and the reality is that no actually the materials are out of date so you know finally now i think things have stabilized Now that there are great wallets, I mean, Zeno upgraded their wallet. They brought in a new development team. So the mobile wallet is much better. And now that Cake and Edge and Bitcoin.com not only have Zeno integrated, they have Zeno assets integrated. They have Freedom Dollar integrated. So we're not at the point where it does make sense. I don't think things are going to change much. too dramatically that it will make sense to actually put together the materials now it's i'm not anticipating that there won't be change but you know if i have
to change it every forty eight hours then that becomes something that now it's like a pressing thing that's taking away from other things but i actually think we have enough stability so so anyway an online video course divided up into segments and then maybe even further kind of divided where it's like you know maybe they're even pre-packaged based on You know, beginner, intermediate, advanced, the written materials. And then I think the chat bot thing, I like this idea of if you take the instruction materials and you use the thing that I'm doing for the Aaron Day Show podcast where somebody can type into the chat, how do you do this? And it'll give them the written
instructions and take them right to that segment in the video. i think that could be helpful as well and and to put into the chat bot you know as many of the the question answer pairs and get as much of the information in there as possible and this is why for me so i again i've never spoken to the confidential layer team i don't even know who the team is i don't even know who the developers are behind confidential layer so uh so i do want to talk to some people at confidential layer and make sure obviously before i put together uh more developed training materials that I understand the full capabilities outside of what I already know in terms of how easy it is to swap out Bitcoin
for BTCX in the edge wallet. All right, let me see here. All right, I'm just generating one. more piece here just try to get this video done um so anyway uh hop on if you want um happy again to do q a i need to oh i have a four times fifty ounce silver bar how do i tokenize it privately
So I can loan myself that value. That is not something you're not going to be able to do that. I mean, you'd have to get Z back to agree to that. It's not that it's a technical problem. One of the first things I ever tokenized was a gold back. Um, and in fact, I've got to make sure if, if, uh, if the person who bought that is listening I thought I sent him the gold back to this, and I might not have. So I have to send him a gold back, uh, cause I'm guessing either it got lost in the mail, but anyway, I tokenized a gold back and, um, so you can do it, but, but you would have to get Z back to how do you validate that you actually are holding onto the silver? I mean,
you can create a token and you can say that it's backed by that silver, but, but what's the, what's the proof? For a while, I was actually considering doing... Before Freedom Dollar, I was going to do a stablecoin backed by gold. And I got far down the process. I actually had an initial organization lined up that had, I think, twelve different gold vaults around the world in different countries. They were in the UK, Singapore, so on and so forth. But in the end, the risk factor is that the company itself was based in europe and they were concerned that if the if their bank which
of course the banks there are as bad as they are here if the bank They were afraid they'd lose their entire banking relationship if the bank thought that this was a type of activity that they shouldn't be involved in. And of course, what's happened even since then is the EU is pushing to ban privacy coins by twenty twenty seven. So it's it's it's a challenge to tokenize. precious metals because you still have a custody issue somewhere. And so, you know, the best I could come up with kind of after that, I'm glad Freedom Dollar came around because it's a lot more elegant. And there's no, I mean, I'd go, you know, they'd throw me in jail.
I'd be a target if I ran that. I'd be a very, very quick target. So in any event, Sorry, I'm just trying to create this video and one of the clips within it got a not suitable for work and it wouldn't generate it. So there's a whole, this whole music video system that I've created has a lot of a lot of steps in the process to try to, you want to get the best model for images and video, but sometimes the best model is, you know, is highly censored. so I have to have like the series So, of, all right, well, if this one doesn't work, then go to this one as a fallback.
The Fed has the word dollar copyrighted. You cannot use this term. It's a privacy stable coin. Good luck. I don't even know who the developers are. It's completely decentralized. There's no corporate entity. Nobody knows who runs it. Good luck with their copyright infringement suit. I wish them all the best. this is one of the other things you Again, have to get comfortable with. I talk about this all the time. We're not going to comply our way out of technocracy. I mean, they are building completely centralized systems. They are now trying to tokenize and control and program everything that we own through centralized tokenization. And the reason that open source developers
are in prison is not even necessarily because they're violating the law, but because privacy actually works. That's how you know... It's one of the true viable solutions that we have left is because they're trying to shut it down. This is why it's critically important to have things like algorithmic stable coins or something like confidential layer where it's all completely decentralized. There's no kill switch. There's no centralized entity. to go after this is this is critically important and i you know when i was working looking at the goldback token i thought well you know i know it's not fully centralized but um it's still an improvement over over what we what we have
and it you know it took about all of about twelve months to realize that um that's going away so that that was an issue of literally the eu in the span of developing it figuring out how the economics would work because you know you have issues with how are you going to handle you still have to pay for the gold to be vaulted then how are you going to do the redemptions as a whole you know having worked through those issues in the end uh it became well if if the bank that the the company that vaults the gold works with uh threatens to debank them then they're going to get out of that business that's a very simple risk factor and if if that if your system is that fragile,
then it's not going to work. So it's pretty, pretty straightforward as to, as to what happened there. So, all right, well, bear with me. I haven't sent any links to any of the normal people who hop on here. So, so once again, I'm Working on stuff. well, Oh, I will say I do have a, I don't think we're any risk of this I have another podcast at ten p.m. now. of all things. So. So there we go. And it does work with Bitcoin cash as well. I want to go in the chat.
Hop on, ask any question. It doesn't have to be even confined to confidential air. We obviously talked about a whole bunch of different topics here tonight. the government every time, I mean, But I will tell you, you know, they never fail. Never fail to disappoint. They can't even keep in a show meaningless anti-CBDC surveillance bill. Couldn't even keep that in. So they've captured private stable coins, and now they've opened up the gateway to still have a CBDC. And the thing that I'm looking at is, how are they going to blame the Democrats for this? And on top of that, it's the defense authorization.
I don't know, whatever. And then they failed on the insurance thing. We've had many people on and talked about things on the Q&A just about, you know, I'd be curious to see your feedback as how your insurance premiums are doing well, based on the government shutdown and everything that happened with the open enrollment period. what I've heard is pretty disastrous. So far, Inflation and a lot of people for the first time, you know, opting out, beginning to opt out of insurance. um or or downgrade coverage out of necessity and you know so go team this is the second time now we've had complete republican majorities and they didn't repeal obamacare in fact now i didn't they
didn't repeal it now we have trump care which whatever that deal is that he cut with uh pfizer and now yeah i don't even i don't i'll get too worked up if i go into that. But yeah, so government's not working out for us again. Oh, there we go. My co-author buddy is here. Hey, co-author, how are you? Hello. How's it going? How's it going? Pretty good. Yeah, the weather's not too good in the Midwest. So the best we had to hope for the other day was that The freezing rain would come down good
enough so that we had a nice little topping over the snow so that we didn't have too bad of a ground blizzard. So on the bright side. Well, yeah, it's not great here in New Hampshire either, so. It's crazy. I saw something. It was like forty four in St. Petersburg today. Oh, wow. In Russia, not not Florida. Oh, no, Russia. It might have been forty four in St. Petersburg, Florida, too. I don't know. Yikes.
So the thing that I saw, let's see, this last week, Aaron, was so I got snowed in. I started watching Mr. Robot. Do you have any idea what in the hell this is? Yeah, I've watched part of it. I watched, I think, the first season or something. And so look at timelines, look at Bitcoin civil war, let's technocracy Atlas who was involved. So like, I like Christian, Christian Slater rocks. He's always kind of the same, you know, character. Like if there was an Aaron day and you were in a movie, it would all,
you would always be, you wouldn't, you would be Aaron day. And that's kind of Christian Slater. Right. So, yeah. i wonder what the so he was a producer so who was telling him about who was talking about uh one to one dollar equivalent stable coins in pre-bitcoin civil war like what what was the timing so when was that a show so it was area twenty fifteen to twenty nineteen Wow. We're talking e-coin, right? So there is a character in the show, and he's talking to the head of the Fed. And the Fed goes, we're not going to let you create a
private currency. That's a one-to-one with a dollar. Are you kidding? This is the job of the government, he said. Yep. Yeah, no, I know. I think I've shared that clip on X before. Really? Okay. Yeah. So I'm looking this up. It probably won't be on Technocracy Atlas because I don't have that kind of information. Right. Christian Slater, you're next. You're next on Technocracy Atlas. Ecoin foreshadowed real developments like JP Morgan coin and even Enron's twenty twenty four crypto revival plans.
Interesting. Well, right. Like, but so who are the writers? Like we're talking, we're talking back in the day where this is pre Terra Luna crash. This is like e-coin, you know what I'm saying? So I find those little parts of a society. Interesting. Even sometimes more interesting than the stuff that is overt within the, the stuff that, that we look at, you know, Yep. Well, I'm sure we're going to find somewhere that Jeffrey Epstein is a producer. Right. Behind the scenes.
Right. No. Filmed an island on Disclosed, right? Yep. It was Brock Pierce. Oh, comedy. No, I mean, that literally has to have... I mean, there's no way that you're writing it into a script and these actors are just saying stuff and it's like... Wow. You know what? I love having you on here because you always bring up stuff that's like, wow, I didn't... The date of that episode... Was November the eighth, twenty seventeen. That is like right in the middle of the hijack. That is as it's going on. So how long ago? You can't write that overnight.
Right. I mean, maybe they could get teams that would. I don't know how it works, but. Philip Price, E Corp CEO, announces the U.S. government is giving E Corp a massive no-interest loan, which will back Ecoin one-to-one, making it the de facto digital dollar. When most crypto analysts point to when they say Mr. Robot predicted modern stablecoins. predicted yeah yeah because christian slater christian slater's always who i would look at you know he's the next ken griffin i mean he's uh come on
now yeah of course um well of course and then you know this the the main actor this this rabbi mallet guy i mean he got launched into the stratosphere he went major um That was, I don't know how many, you know, it's interesting too, within a popular culture, how many references earlier than that really are where you're talking about Bitcoin.
And really this is like hacker stuff. Like they had to make it realistic. So they're talking to somebody, probably MIT. I don't know. Who else are you talking to? So the guy who wrote this and was in charge of the whole thing, Sam S. Male, place of birth, Hoboken, New Jersey, Egyptian-American Muslim family, NYU Tisch School. I grew up in South Carolina. Pre-Mr. Robot, worked as a computer programmer and web designer. created and wrote most of the episodes and directed forty-three out of forty-five of the episodes.
His general themes are, so his major works, Homecoming, Gaslit. I haven't seen that. Leave the World Behind. Oh, man. Leave the World Behind. That was that Obama-funded movie on Netflix. Right. oh wow okay so then um he's working on a battlestar galactica reboot and a metropolis limited series um wow interesting known for paranoia unreliable narrators corporate critique long single take sequences predicted the rise of stable coins deep fakes and ransomware as
a service He's a hacker. He was a hacker turned filmmaker. Wow. Wild. And he was working with Obama on. So because, again, when you say predict, you know, when you start getting to this, that, you know, that realm of things, I mean, that Obama movie. that leave the world. This was not on this robot thing. Was this on any of your radars? Was this on anybody's radar in terms of, I never heard of this shit at all. I mean, I was like, Rami Malek, is that the guy that with the, he did, he did something. I don't know. Like, well, the thing is, he did queen.
He was the queen in, uh, he, they paid him to be, um, Freddie Mercury. Yeah. He did a great job in that, by the way. I didn't see it. It premiered. I was in Edinburgh, Scotland, and they were playing it, and I was like, Jesus, man, that looks good, but I had something else to do. but the thing is, No, he did great in that, when I did see the show, it was a couple years ago, so I didn't really think anything about it. timing of it in fact i didn't even realize the show was that old so my although my son just started watching it so that's pretty pretty wild well and it wasn't on anything because um oh it's a usa production what i don't i don't
remember seeing it's a mandela like i don't remember it seeing coming out or anything mr robot and then Apparently, you could look up when did it get released on Netflix. I mean, there's a definite reason why. I just saw that it's going to go off on Netflix. So it came on, I think, in July. And there's four seasons. So if you watch a little bit at a time from July, and they're just going to take it off now. in america i i think timing is huge there and it i don't know man um
there's stuff there for everybody like courtney could have a ball everybody could have a ball with mr robot for sure because it goes deep into it's this split it's gemini it's his dad who's this like kind of black hat but he's the white hat but he's a druggie but it's but it also pushes pharmaceuticals, but not... When kids see it, they're gonna be... So I contend that the movie that really pushed ADD drugs was Fast and Furious. And it was the first time in movies that you saw somebody scarfing pills and be like, man, I'm a computer hacker,
but all I know is just... don't know what else to do i just have to do my pills and and do the hacking and and that i think that was a moment in it where they are connecting hackers cyber everything cyber but this introvert extra introvert you need to have but you need to have the pills to be the introvert and so So I could see that, yeah. Definitely along those lines. No, that's a good one. I will take a watch. I only saw part of one season. Like I said,
I didn't even realize it had four seasons, but that's fast. That is a fun rabbit hole. I think the tie-in, I guess for me, is just this Obama movie because that was some predictive programming as well, that movie. Yeah. another kind of end of the world scenario. Yeah. Right. I touched on a lot of themes. It'd be interesting to, to look at that. I mean, how does a hacker end up becoming a, you know, Hollywood writer? That's not a usual career path.
Yeah. I mean, um, Yeah, I've made jokes that, no, I'm Snowden. No, I'm just snowed in. I can't leave my place. It's snow. The ice came and I'm snowed in. It's so bad. And so, but yeah, just snow didn't have contracts. Just let's put Assange, you know, he could have a, there's a really killer film out there with Assange dancing, right? He's just, he's dancing in the club, but I didn't, I didn't see the contracts for him, you know? No. That's crazy. Well, they didn't predict the confidential
layer, though, so that's good. Right? Right? They didn't actually talk about... Let me think about that. Yeah, in the series... I don't know what happened with it. I guess to privacy coin or probably why you should look this up or privacy coins, part of the narrative. Let's just say they don't mention Monero. No, they don't. It was, it was Bitcoin is basically Bitcoin and nothing. There was no other mention of, of anything, of anything there. And then there was a,
it was kind of a general theme of a, of a China, China hijack deal. Like, I don't know in terms of China, in terms of their undercover power. Um, it's interesting because there's a hacker group and that yet there's no privacy coin and what i'm seeing here that is a summary season one bitcoin only season two ecoin fictional season three ecoin again and then season four bitcoin so at no point is there any privacy coin mentioned which if you were really a hacker and you were really doing this subversive thing you know you would think that would have come up at that point Well, hold on, hold on, hold on.
There is a specific... Okay, so Craig Robinson... Uh, big black dude. He's in the office. He plays the keyboard. He's like comedy. He's in hot tub type of scene and This dude. shit. So he's in it and he comes off as Mr. Nice guy walking my dog and whatever. But he under, he runs a, he runs a completely anonymous in the show, a completely anonymous website, uh, that is only in bitcoin because you can't track bitcoin right in the show that's what it is and uh when the guy hacks into it he figures out that it's a bunch of stuff that you can't do or whatever
And so it was, and then in the show, he goes, we didn't know what was on it. We just wanted to create a completely free market where anybody could sell or buy whatever they wanted. It is literally, they did it. They did Silk Road and Craig Robinson was the guy in it, the actor that had the Silk Road. So they didn't let that go by. I mean, that was there. Silk Road was already around. They didn't predict that. They were just late to the game on that. No, I mean, it's how they... It's just about the portrayal. Yep. And then now what we see, Right?
it's years later, of course. I mean, shit, that's eight... How many years later is it? In some of the cases for the writing of the episodes, it was... You know what? No one was talking about it pre-Bitcoin Civil War. It was like, yeah, we got to have a one-to-one dollar called an e-coin. This will change everything. No one was saying that. I don't remember it. I don't think they were talking about it in terms of stablecoins, but certainly there was the concern that... If Bitcoin wasn't widely adopted, that the government would implement a worse form of it. People weren't calling it backed by the
dollar, though. That was not a common theme. But I'll tell you the timing, though. Twenty fifteen to twenty nineteen is the time at which Bitcoin was hijacked and the U.S. CBDC pilots were launched by the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston and New York in conjunction with MIT. I mean, that is the window. Sure. So. So good times. We got somebody else joining us here. Hello. Hey, how's it going? Good. How are you? good good to meet you guys my name's kent nice to meet you kent uh yeah
i just watched your part of your live stream uh you're one of the very few guys that know what you're talking about so uh had to log in awesome appreciate that thanks how do you feel about aaron Slouch. Yeah. Yeah, I've been just a lot. My name is Kent Lillis. I'm a three time presenter for J. Edward Griffin. And I'm one of the very first ones in the world back in two thousand seventeen, eighteen to tell the world that Bitcoin was controlled by the Federal Reserve. And I wrote reports on it. And then everybody from Cliff High to Jeff
Berwick to Bix Ware came out and said, this guy doesn't know what he's talking And then they had to eat crow. about. And today for a living, what I do is I develop entire ecosystems to live outside of the digital slave system in which they're implementing. Very cool. Yeah, so I saw your email today. No idea how you got my email, but I was like, hey, got to listen to this guy's podcast. My guess is you probably signed up for the Technocracy Atlas. That's likely the scenario because we don't get emails from – it's not like we buy email lists or anything. I was wondering. Unless I met you. Were you at a Red Pill Expo?
I'm a three-time speaker. I spoke a couple years ago. Really? Yeah. I spoke in Salt Lake in twenty two about the new worldwide financial system. I was talking about ISO two zero zero two two. And then I spoke in Spokane in two thousand eighteen or nineteen. I spoke about how Bitcoin controlled the Federal Reserve controlled Bitcoin. or excuse me, And then I spoke in Paso Robles at Freedom Force International. Yeah, I was in South Dakota.
Cool. Yeah, I was invited. I wish I would have went. What did you talk about? Talked about a lot of things we're talking I talked about privacy coins. about right now. I don't think I talked about confidential layer, although I might have mentioned it. But I actually talked about the war on crypto and our political prisoners like Roger Ver and Ian Friedman at the time. And then I talked about... CBDCs. This has been the thing that I've been focused on for the last three years is warning people about CBDCs and the government crackdown on crypto. And now here we are, and now it's, you know, we have backdoor CBDCs to the Genius Act and everything else going on.
I'm very interested in learning more about Confidential Air and Edge Wallet. And Zaino, Zaino. Um, I, so John McAfee and I used to talk a lot and I had approached him with the design that I had in mind for a, for a, for a digital asset. And he absolutely loved the idea and wanted to come in into it with me. I'm glad he didn't, but that is seventeen seventy six token dot com. And real briefly, because you'll appreciate this, it's the most secure cryptocurrency in the
world, in my opinion, and it was free to develop. Well, as far as the design. And what I had noticed was proof of work could be compromised because, you know, back in. Two thousand seventeen, eighteen, the majority of Bitcoin mining was done in China. And so I saw that, well, you know, if ninety percent of BTC mining is done in China, well, they they pretty much control it. And then I started looking at proof of stake, researching it. And then I learned how they were actually tracking Bitcoin. And then I thought to myself,
as I was researching, I was looking at PIVX, how they had the blockchain explorer built into the wallet. And proof of stake, as long as you control pretty much who holds master nodes, and then you have the blockchain explorer built into the wallet, and then you don't have a public source code, it's impossible for them to track. And that is seventeen seventy six token dot com. And it's not part of the fiat system. It's its own currency. So when they come out with digital idea, the idea behind it is to be able to trade for organic food, natural healing and products and services.
So I'm not trying to sell you guys on it, it's it's just outside of the fiat system. Yep. Yeah, I'll take a look at that. And that's a lot of right up the alley of what we're what we're doing with some of the tokenization projects on Zeno. I don't know if you heard this part but we're launching or we've launched a of it, beta version of a global medical tourism marketplace. and which we're gonna expand into other areas of healthcare. But the ability to use privacy coins and privacy tokens to create marketplaces that are parallel systems that are outside of the system, that's the way to go. I mean, we're pretty much running out of options, frankly.
What are we gonna do when they come out with digital ID? and if if they require digital id to access the internet well i mean we know we already have digital id right real id is already digital in twelve states by twenty twenty seven they're looking for for full rollout and so i mean this is where you know mesh networking you gotta get a mesh net man point to point you're gonna have to build towers you're gonna have to fly blimps and drones your own drones i guess Let's start building our own mesh network I have to look. now. I've got an entire folder on open source. You got towers?
No, no, but they're in existence today. There's decentralized open source networks out there. Yeah, they have gateways. Yo, so Aaron, I got a question. This, we should be able to get, can we get to this answer of this with your AI, Mike Adams and stuff on? I have it pulled up. So I put up LM Studio. I'm running it on my own stuff. So you should be proud. I said I was gonna do it and I'm gonna do it. Okay, so here's the deal. This is controversial. BixWeir. How much silver is in a solar panel?
Now, this is a big deal. Like, based on what I've seen... And I'm having a Mandela effect and shit Because... right now. And Bix was saying, well, it's going up. It's like more like almost an ounce per panel now. And it's six hundred watts. So the newest generation Topcon panels are like six hundred watts. Right. That's a shitload per panel. When I first started, it was like one fifty. and so i want to get to the i want to get to the bottom of this if we could uh tonight this is perfect are we writing another book um
there we go let's see well i'm just starting up ellen studio here What did it tell you? Did you hear anything? Okay, so a lot of stuff I see online is insanely low amounts of silver per panel, but I've never done it myself. I think... I think there's a person to talk to. I think the guy, he does crushing of different materials and whatever and recycle stuff and literally manufactures the stuff, but is a psycho about recycling, gold, silver mining, like different...
Essentially, you can recover anything if you smash it down into small pieces and then put it on a shaker table with water and it just moves into its own separate chamber. And then you can smelt it down later. And there's tons of different stuff. So like recycling is going to be huge, right? Especially with AI, especially with robotics. So for instance, I honestly think that we probably don't even need to produce nuts and bolts ever again. You can go to an auction and get like ten five-gallon pails of nuts and bolts for a dollar. If you could just sort them, I don't even know if we need to buy anything from China literally ever again.
There's so much produce. So like, sorry, that's like many different thoughts, but. it's like, it's like, it's like, So, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's That's what I'm getting from this.
Most solar panels use recycled silver. So to your point, sourced from e-waste recycling programs, decommissioned electronics, industrial waste from factories using silver in manufacturing. However, new high efficiency panels may use more than a hundred grams of silver per panel. Do we have a way to check out what Bix Weir is saying right now? he was saying like an ounce a panel an ounce a panel that's google's telling me twenty grams to point seven ounces i'm
a hundred percent off grid so i've got about forty solar panels Have you ever smashed it down and then melted out a panel? that's the only way we're going to have I mean, to get down to it. We might do that on Aaron's next live stream. We estimate solar panels consume over five hundred million ounces of physical silver in twenty twenty four on track. for four hundred and fifty to six hundred and fifty total interesting um dwarfs official estimates which he calls
impossible given a one hundred and thirty five percent rise in installs from twenty twenty two to twenty twenty four but only a claim to sixty five percent silver increase So the other thing is that people conflate production in China, shipping to the United States, installed capacity, this, I mean, there's a lot of ways. I just wanna know what's in a panel. And I've never, I mean, I've never busted them down before. I have panels, but it's a lot of work, man.
So I swear I've heard Bix say that it's almost an ounce of panel because he's like, these are the new top cons. And that's just not the case, though. I mean, it's over. Not that it matters. It depends on the type of solar panel, what I'm looking at right now. So a two hundred watt solar panel uses typically around twenty grams or two thirds of an ounce. So. Do you guys know David Morgan?
Personally, yeah. He sang at my birthday. No. Of course, yeah. It's weird that his name is David Morgan and he's the silver guy. But yeah, I know David Morgan. I've read his stuff, of course. He's a good guy. I think the silver is about ready to just go boop. It's out of It's becoming scarce. Anyway, guys, I don't want to crash your party. You already did. You're not crashing the party.
Twenty grams of physical silver per Let's go. average modern solar panel. Two hundred watt. Five hundred to six hundred watt. Based on his twenty twenty four supplier data breakdown. Is that from Bix's claiming that now? That's according to Grok. This is what what what Bix Weir's answer is on this. OK. Interesting.
I thought it was an interesting question just to bring up. I mean, to really solidify it out there. Yep. It's interesting. I was just looking at my my post here. People like, oh, you know, Bitcoin's privacy problem was solved in twenty sixteen. It's called Z cash. So, yeah, that's. That's not really a solution to Bitcoin's privacy problem. Z cash is controlled by. Digital Currency Group. Yep. What's his name? Barry Silbert? Yeah. Yeah. He runs DDS or DCG.
Yep. Yeah, he's been silent for a while. Wasn't he under investigation being sued? And then, you know, he's been quiet for a long time. You know, I... I haven't been researching crypto for a while. All I know is DCG controls, or it used to when I used to research it, the majority of major crypto projects, exchanges, technologies. And then if you look at the board of the directors, at least going back to my report from Seven years ago, even seven,
eight years ago, when you look at their board of directors, a good percentage of them were also on the board of governors of the Fed, including Larry Summers. Yeah, I'm pretty sure I can't find it now, but I'm pretty sure I remember Larry Summers being on an advisory board for XRP as well a while back. You know, and then I just downloaded these two exchanges that you're recommending. You know, and so, you know, I'm in the process of creating apps. I've got an end-to-end encryption software
I'm releasing soon. That's what I do for a living is develop software. And I don't understand, like on the edge wallet, you know, it's all apps. So if Google or Apple decide, well, we don't want you to play ball anymore because it's happened to me before. And then. It doesn't matter. Bill Binney said it's already been done at the hardware level and it'll never be changed. Okay. Hey, Aaron. Hey, check it out. So I checked this out on LM Studio using Enoch. And I asked it. Oh, my God. It goes so stupid.
Ask Enoch the gold price in two thousand. It will tell you it's twenty seven dollars, I swear. But anyway, after arguing it for a while, I finally got something useful. So everybody knows that houses are overpriced, right? Every house is overpriced. So let's look at if you take year, two thousand average house price, one hundred and fifty grand. What was gold? Let's say two eighty two hundred and one hundred and eighty. You take the house price twenty twenty four four fifty.
Gold price, I mean, it was twenty five hundred, let's just say twenty even twenty five hundred bucks. So our house is overvalued. Yeah, probably. But in gold, it measured in gold. Yeah, of course. I mean, the whole thing's been a scam. Keep interest rates low, change all the criteria, and continue to pump the thing up. Of course it's overvalued. Bring back subprime. Yeah. It is back, isn't it? Yeah. Fully. Fully. Yeah. Then when they collapse.
And now we're going to have a fifty year mortgage soon. Get your fifty year adjustable rate subprime mortgage. You know, and then when they collapse everything, Blackstone's is going to step in and buy it all up and the ordinary person will own nothing and love it. It's going to happen sooner rather than later, I suspect. I'm getting that Enoch is telling me two hundred and seventy three dollars and fifty cents an ounce on January one, two thousand peaked at two hundred ninety two dollars an ounce later that year. Indeed. And the houses were one hundred and fifty grand. So you divide it. How many ounces of gold per average house?
It's like. Five hundred and fifty maybe. And then twenty twenty four, how many ounces of gold per average house? It's less than two hundred. So measured in gold, houses are shit. Houses are dog shit. It should be two million dollars for average house. Wages haven't caught up. See what I'm saying? It should be the average suit is still an ounce of gold, right? Or whatever. So if your average house is still the same in gold, you're talking to two million dollar average house. Oh, yeah. OK.
If in measured in gold, nominal. So I say houses aren't overvalued. I think people are underpaid. But no one's paying... No one's gonna... Or what else would you make from that? So I asked... What I asked to Aaron was... Yeah, just gold average house compared to now in terms of price of gold. Well, I'm looking at that now. It depends on what date you pick. I mean, I just picked nineteen eighty, which was not a great comparison year because in nineteen eighty it would it
would cost one hundred three ounces versus one hundred and fifty three ounces today. Which but if you picked nineteen fifty, you'd actually get a different different result. OK. OK. I think measuring in gold is a fun is a fun metric, but. Yeah, it's all set up for AI takeover and UBI. I think we should measure in tether. Sponsored by Cantor Fix Gerald. Yeah, I mean, I just did a table in five-year increments
starting from nineteen forty five to today. You know, how many ounces needed to buy? So it peaked in nineteen sixty, actually nineteen seventy. Eight hundred and fifty ounces to buy the average home versus one hundred and fifty three ounces today. How about that? Nice. So there's quite a bit of fluctuation here. The gold to home ratio. Yeah. Hey, Steven, how are you?
I see Steven's there. Maybe he's on mute or maybe he's... Good evening, Aaron. How are you doing? I'm doing well. How are you? All right. I was up on a ladder. It took me a little while. interesting conversation. Yeah, confidential air. There you go. Well, and everything else. Price of homes measured in gold. We've got Mr. Robot. We've got a whole variety of things going on here today. Yeah, I've been thinking, you know, I get paid in fiat and I've been thinking, you know, I know how you live. You probably don't get paid in fiat, but I've been thinking about, you know,
like just laundering all my money through crypto and then, you know, pulling it out. But I don't know a reasonable way to do that. Just to keep the money flowing through the, you know, keep the value flowing through the crypto rather than keeping it in fiat. Yeah. Well, I'll tell you, I've got a podcast coming up at ten. I'm going to be on... with the guys from Citizens for Sound Money, which I'm an advisor to. I'm going to be on with Daniel Diaz. And one of the things I haven't been talking about lately, I mean, I actually have a debit card that's tied to gold. And so that might actually be an easier
option. That's also an option for you. I should probably start talking about those things as well. The problem is the gold is vaulted and I still have concerns that it's not as self-custody as I would like. But for paycheck to paycheck purposes, it might resolve your problem if you could just direct deposit your cash into gold and then you could actually spend it on a card. Yeah. the one thing i would say i mean when you mention that the problem is i mean crypto is pretty volatile right so
that that could actually backfire against yeah i've been thinking about that yeah i've been thinking about that and i've also been thinking about the fact that you know in order to get obtain it you got to use an exchange right i mean that's there's other on ramps i guess but you know uh the most obvious one is the exchange but i don't really want to use the exchange so that's why i want to talk to you about all this stuff because like i said i know how you live And I kind of want to duplicate that model in some way. I'm in the fiat system right now, I mean, of course, so it's a little bit difficult for me because I get paid in fiat. But I don't expect that that's going to
stay that way forever because I want to get out of this work that I'm doing right now. I mean, this gold thing might be a good interim Yeah. solution. I have been thinking about it since you, I did, uh, since you messaged me about that. And I'm kind of like, ah, you know, so you have the risk of volatility, then you have transaction fees. I'm like, you could, you could be in a, you could end up losing out on that deal. and if it's something that's necessary And if it's, for, you know, day to day, um, could, could be a bit risky. Sure. I mean, you know, uh, I have, you know, my store of value is, is it's not huge, but it's, uh,
I think it's big enough to, to him. Big enough to what you cut out. Oh, you're on, you're on mute, Steven. I don't know if, uh, Hold on. I guess you muted yourself. I don't know if you realize that you did that, but in any event, you are muted. Is that silverback crypto that you have load?
No, it's not load. It's through goldback. The goldback folks. Hmm. I was unaware they had a debit card. Yeah, they, they do. And I, you know, I haven't, frankly, I haven't used it much lately, but I have used it. I, and, you know, come to think of it, I regrettably, I probably should have done it a little bit more, but you know, it's, it's, it's pretty straightforward. Um, you know, pretty quick to load direct ACH and, um, and you can do gold, silver and gold backs. Um, So, you know, it's a pretty interesting model.
It is. I've spoke with him in detail several times. Do you know Dan Happel? No. He used to be on the board of directors of Goldbacks. He used to be general manager of Red Pill Expo for Red Pill. Yeah, I know when I spoke, there were a bunch of people that came up to me because I was talking about tokenized gold. And I know that there's a nexus of people on the board over there. Yeah, I should reach out to these. I just saw the CEO at Freedom Fest,
so I should probably... I have a bunch of goldbacks sitting right here. I used to talk about these all the Here are my goldbacks sitting on my desk. time. When we're out and about, I'm usually using crypto or the crypto debit card, but we often tip in goldbacks to introduce people to the concept. Sometime offline, I'd love to speak with you. I've got a new cryptocurrency coming out next week. It's not launched. It's very loud.
Whoever's doing that. I'm not going to launch it until next year sometime, but it's called Seventeen Seventy Six Cash. It's another clone of PIVX. I want to talk about the best exchanges. best which i'm doing myself i'm doing all the due diligence to just to before launch to make sure to distinguish between a security and a commodity know everything that i need to do yep but uh well yeah i mean by the way wait a couple of weeks because whatever this quote market structure bill is will and then also the clarity act
so you know i'm expecting changes and they're you know probably not going to be great but we'll see we'll see what happens now that people get all excited oh yeah that you know people from JP Morgan and Citibank and Wells Fargo are going to Congress to meet to discuss this crypto bill. People are celebrating this. I find that to be odd. Right. Yo, that guy, Reggie Middleton, has basically made himself a chat GPT genius patent lawyer motherfucker. I'm dead serious. He... I mean, at least he's bringing out the information that's sort of relevant in terms of some questions that need to be asked later.
Are patents even going to matter? Probably, I don't even think, probably not. They'll just be like, no, it's national security. Who cares? Probably. I mean, honestly, I don't know. Do you think the people in the Whigs in Britain are going to go, uh... No, give it away, Google. It goes to Reggie Middleton. Yeah, right. Reggie. I was looking at that law not too long ago, and I had looked up how many different patents have been confiscated due to national security.
And it was like over twenty thousand. Yep. I mean, I know it's – well, the Invention Secrecy Act, the number I got was over five thousand. I haven't heard twenty thousand, but yeah, it's insane. Yeah. Question. Is there a patent that – so the – I'm trying to get a spider. No, I'm not going to say it. All right. There's a pipeline that runs from the north of Alaska to the south. There are patents that make that happen. Think about how you could physically make How would that happen? that happen. I don't know if I can say anything more than that, but there is a.
How do you put a pipeline over frozen ground that freezes in twenty four hour sun? How did you build that? OK. They permanently froze the ground underneath the pipeline. How did they do it? They can't not freeze. If it unfreezes, the whole pipes break. How did they do it? Where's that tech? Who's got the patents? So that's real. If that was released, there would be no reason to have electricity powering cool places that cool
food. Yeah, no, of course, the patents that have been suppressed on that, you know, again, we probably have cheap or nearly free energy for decades. And when you dig into the Invention Secrecy Act, it's They can use national security or economic security. And there's no appeals process if they do So it's just like, OK, this. we've snatched your patent. And if you talk about it, you go to prison for twenty years or whatever it is and instantly ten years, twenty years. And and so it seems like the process is the captured agencies can basically, on behalf of corporate interests, just come in and use this process to steal and suppress technology.
And that seems to have been going on since. I don't know, was it nineteen? I thought it was the emergency. I thought was in the early fifties. But let me see. Yeah, people don't know about this. It's oh, yeah. It's one of the reasons. So I remember Elon was saying, well, yeah, we don't file for patents on most things. And he's trying to make it out like he's a hero to give it away for And it's like, no, free. you're just trying to avoid the Invention Secrecy Act. Let me clarify. I was absolutely wrong. It's five thousand nine hundred and fifteen. OK. I could have sworn it was over twenty, but.
That includes cars that run on water. Yep. And they're inventors six feet under. Yep. Invention Secrecy Act of nineteen fifty one. So I want to get back to you, Aaron, here in at least a month, I hope I can get to this place that I need to go, but. I know of a place that bought an AI optical nut sorter, husker, cracker, aspirator. This shit does not exist in very many places. And I know of an entity.
I have to make sure it's cool to disclose where it's at and shit. And we'll do it. But you guys had you and was it Craig did a thing on the ag, AI ag and dystopian ag and the future of ag? Yeah, we did one on that and we're doing a technocracy round table on like January the twenty first on the same topic. We're expanding on that. Nice. Oh, wicked. So, I mean, I don't know. I don't mean to toot my horn, but I've been on more farm acreage and operations than literally anybody and all the people that watch you all combined times a lot in the heart. Like, it's scary bad, but
And I don't know how much I can disclose. There's things that it's bad though. But, but, but in terms of what we can do that I can talk about. And so the contraption, yeah, we're talking about is a, is a Husker sorter, aspirator, cracker, two thousand pounds of stuff. fricking our, um, nuts are definitely the future in terms of, as a, uh, substitute to shit. I got a dry ass tongue, uh, substitute to, um, corn and soy for sure.
I mean, hogs finished on nuts, a lot of different opportunities for, for nuts. Also what I said before, like, just dumb stuff like a robot that could sort nuts and bolts. I was thinking about doing that at old people's homes and like literally just, there's so many nuts and bolts. I don't even, America doesn't need to buy any from China for like a million years. I was just asking Grok and it gave me, you know, peanuts. I was looking up, so. Peanuts aren't nuts.
They're a legume, Aaron. Okay? Yep. Yeah, I'm looking at these companies. The future is nuts. Yep. you definitely know a lot more about this Well, yeah, than I do. Well, Ag to the Future, I'm no Ben Falk. I mean, I'm no whatever. But I do know about setting up land. I mean, I've been on the land for a while. I've been setting up systems and different things that are pretty cool.
I don't know. A lot of things that are very helpful, I think, that AI can help with in the future, specifically if you can get, like, imagine your own AI in the farm, but yours, self-contained. You know, what would that mean? What would that mean to be able to... really have that. And it's not on the USDA server. Um, there are technological ways around it. A lot of different issues, especially, well, there's no, okay. There's one technological way you can't get rid of.
And you're right. You got to go South for the winter. Sometimes Aaron, you need the sun and the, and the ocean, um, I mean, if you don't get it once a year, I think you're dead by a six-week. But you got to go south. You got to get the ocean. Yep. I'm a big fan. I'm on top of a mountain in Colorado. Where are you guys at? The Paleozoic Plateau. Northwestern New Jersey. I'm in New Hampshire. I'm at over ten thousand feet.
Got over forty acres and. No neighbors. Good orbs orbs surrounding my property. Orbs surrounding your property. They've been here for about four years. You got a laptop, bro. Can you show that? Are they out there right now? I can't see them with your eyes. You can only see them with the infrared security cameras. No, I feel you.
Yeah, they're up. So there's about... I don't know, maybe a hundred up on the ridge right now. But they... I've got some cool videos. I could do a screen share and show you a really amazing video. Yeah, let's see it. Let's see it. Hold on. They don't have mouse overs. Let's see. Present. There it is.
So this is a platform I'll be launching in January to compete with X and Facebook. It's called freedom.buzz. That's really interesting. You got enough tabs, bro? Yeah. And that's only one browser. Wow. And I'm double booted.
You know what's interesting? Is... There it goes. What the hell's going on here? Nice Pete Hegsath. Yeah, we've got a bunch. I haven't launched this yet, but we've got everybody from David Icke to Corbett to Berwick to you name it. Gio Griffin, Ron Paul, and I don't want – anyway, let's see. Let me get to my channel. Your favorite is Milo. Yeah. I know. Yeah. So this is the stuff I usually talk about in interviews.
It's what they're doing with nanotech. Wicked. Pretty interesting. Here it is. So this was last summer. For some reason, my internet is just... I'm using Starlink right now. And it is dragging. Okay, this is all aspen trees in the back. Now, these are clouds over here. And this is an aspen tree grove.
I'm filming my video monitor. My internet's really dragging right now. But this right here... Is a plasma crack. This is white plasma. Watch. What? Watch this shit. Come on, Starlink. Let's go. These are clouds. These are clouds and this is a plasma crack. And I'm sitting here filming my security monitor. Watch this. Watch. Here it comes.
Came right through the plasma crack. What the fuck? Man, dude. I know. I've got all kinds of videos. I haven't uploaded them. I mean... I've got another one. It's dragon-y. The tails. This was the first time that they ever showed up. This was one thousand one hundred and sixty three days ago. And I'm sitting here one night. And this was bouncing at my front door.
So there was an orb in my yard. See it bouncing up and down. But, uh, yeah, there's one, there's usually quite a few of them out there. And, uh, right now that I'm aware of, there's only one in my yard and it's, uh, just down the driveway, and it lights up, lights up the entire driveway, and then it goes out. Really quite interesting. I mean, that one,
that last beach ball thing, that was... Yeah. How close do you feel like they are when you see it? Like way out there or sort of like plane level out there, out there? They're right next. So, I mean, I could show you still images. You know, I had one come up to the front door. I have one of those magic screens. And it ripped the screen off the door and was shining a beam in on me.
Are you near any military facilities or anything? No. Good question. No. Well, I'm about... I'm about sixty miles northwest of Norad. And then I'm about sixty miles southwest of Denver. But no, there... Guys, we live in this multi-dimensional realm. They've been here forever. As have the fallen angels. Or archons. Whatever term you want to use. But these are representative of Source. And they've been here for years. And I have zero fear.
You know. So. I think it's because I've. Awakened. I'm very aware of what this world is. There's a lot of dark Luciferian evil going on in our world right now. That's why I live very remote. Yeah, so check it out. Did anybody else have... Last week was a very intense,
there was very intense alignments with astrology, but also with a full moon. And then on top of that, there was a, so we've had a pretty active sun, like shooting out mass ejections. And there's also, it's correlates with shit where dude, there's an Ethiopia volcano that hasn't never been recorded to be erupted. And it just, it erupted big time, what, last week? And Japan's going apeshit. Oh, yeah. Japan is like, tsunami, tsunami wave. There's a warning every other week. That's just bonkers. And it all is. So I've lived at my place,
but I've been up here for like, twenty five years, sort of a lot. And we've only I mean, we get more than one Northern Lights event. per year now. So it's, I don't know. Maybe mother nature doesn't care and it's just, that's the variability, you know, and we just think it's crazy. I don't know. I'm just saying in thirty years, we've had multi northern light events at a low latitude.
You're aware that harp can create earthquakes. That's a question. Right. Here's another question. If you're the governor and you're Jesse Ventura and you sign your name as Jesse Ventura, but that's your wrestler name. Does the law still count? So you're Jesse the Snake Ventura, and you're elected governor. So does the law count? Can you just sign? Can I just be like, I signed it in the law, and we use Zano. Right? Zano.
I'm the gubernator. Whatever. No, I don't think the law matters then. So, but he literally signed laws, Jesse Ventura. That's not his name. That is absolutely not his name. but any state or government official that Yeah, doesn't sign... I forget what the official document is called. So, Norm MacDonald can just show up and say, turd Furtickus, and then that's law? Any government official that doesn't sign oath to the Constitution, none of anything that they sign into law
is official. And most of the officials, administrative people under Biden, never... signed it. I have no idea about Trump. Probably not. But, you know, we've become a banana republic. And, you know, that's why I don't do politics. It's the thought that counts. Yeah, interesting world, man. Really fascinating. The solar activity has been interesting. My feed has been populated with a lot of all the billionaires are going
underground because they're anticipating a near-term event. Maybe people waking up and going, fuck you. We've had enough, which I doubt is going to happen. I think it's more likely a solar flare than it is that people are waking up. We can hope. You know, I don't know what you guys think about this three-eye Atlas. Personally, I think they're manipulating the satellites and the telescopes going, look, we got an alien spaceship coming, my own personal opinion. But they're going to take that, whatever it is. so we did a show where old Rico Yo, popped on, and I said, they're going to flip it.
They're going to do... Climate change doesn't matter anymore. They're doing end of the world, deep... It's Armageddon, baby. It's a deep impact movie from the movie. They're doing catastrophe theory versus climate change theory. So like... Basically, they're arguing over what makes Europe cold. It's either... we burned too much fire and then it that's global warming slow. And then the, the Gulf stream gets cut off or it was just like a meter. And then, so that's the end of the world stuff. So either way they win.
But at the same time, when you promote the end of the world, shit, the end time shit, people get not, they get deprogrammed from just what is nature, which is cycles. And you have this block in your head where it's like, Well, why even do it? You know, we're just, we're all going to, you know, why even do anything? Why eat? You're just going to shit anyway, right? People don't make good decisions when they're fearful. Indeed. Indeed. They don't, but that reminds me that we talked about but since we got onto this Mr. Deep Impact, Robot thing, I'm looking up the predictive programming elements of the Leave the World Behind movie that that guy worked on.
And so we had a massive cyber attack. that knocks out all cell internet TVs and GPS. Oil tankers deliberately run aground. Self-driving cars pile up in gridlocked weaponized traffic jams. Commercial airlines falling out of the sky. Deer behaving aggressively. Spanish language emergency broadcasts on hacked TVs. Mentioning Cuba and Iran. New York skyline with mushroom cloud Anyway, I wanted to... smoke. Ships running aground. Yeah, ships where I wanted to see what those themes were. Because that movie was... Yeah, whatever. Interesting timing. And knowing that the Mr. Robot guy was pushing stable coins ahead
of its time, and now he's working with Obama on this Netflix movie. We'll see what happens. Let's see if we get any of this in the next couple of weeks. It's like I said, it's... biblical approved it's kosher compliant it works with the left because they're already end times it's trump is the end times for them but he's also there's end times it's just what they want for there's i don't know why everybody wants the end times i'm like the only person that doesn't want the end times i'm like no no i'm in there yeah stabbing noahide laws that's coming it's just
Right, right. Yeah, when they pull the trigger on this, it's going to be domino after domino after And the normal average person, NPC, domino. they're just not going to know what's coming or going. It's going to be a new scamdemic, fake alien invasion, financial... Bro, people are texting me telling me that they filmed the same orbs that you just showed. I mean, I've uploaded a lot of pictures, but I've got some amazing pictures,
you know, just outside the cabin here. And, you know, I had one sitting next to the cabin for a couple of years. You know, and I had friends, you know, we'd be all drunk and stoned and... They're going and standing in it, and I'm like, you guys have lost your fucking mind. In the orb? Yeah! Yeah, they're drunk and stoned, so I don't care how messed up I I'm not going and standing in the middle am. of an orb. Was there any effect? Did anything happen? Hot box in the orb? It's funny.
so i don't know if you guys can see this or not probably maybe that one was outside the cabin the other night man wow you get to have all the fun like is a lot of people around your area know this or is it just you or what you know guys for a living, I used to wake people up, you know, I did hundreds and hundreds of interviews and, you know, talking about you and a jet, you know, the stuff that we talk about and stuff that since nobody really gets it and nobody does anything until they're affected. I just don't tell anybody shit anymore.
You just get along. But I have one of my neighbors talk in general about, things about listen i don't do politics so but i'm not a big fan of any politician he's talking about all the great stuff that trump is doing i just wanted to say to him but bro that's all great and stuff but what about the digital slave system in which he's implementing and what about warp speed in nanotech that connects people to body area networks that are controlled by artificial intelligence Did you take the jab, by the way? Well, now you're connected to AI. And what are you going to do when they activate general artificial intelligence? And you're fucked. You're part of the singularity.
That's where my world is. I don't want to talk about your fucking immigration bullshit because it was all intentional. Yep. Yep. That is a tough topic of conversation that the same stuff that when it was Klaus Schwab and Bill Gates, people were protesting. They've just let it walk right through and cheered it on. I don't even I don't know how do you fix that? You don't because they're so fucking brainwashed and so basically elemental. Trump is going after Soros by appointing Soros' main guy to the most powerful
position in the fucking world. I mean, that's chess beyond your imagination, okay? So just stop it. I remember I was on a Dan Happless show in January of, and I had forgot that that was QAnon's platform. And I was sitting there talking about the financial system and CBDCs and, you know, what they're about ready to do with standardization standards. And the producer jumps into our discussion
and he says, hey, Q has just come out with a brand new drop, first time in months. You mind if I read it to the audience? And we're like, yeah, sure. And so he continues and he asked me what I think about QAnon. boy, did I mess up because I told the truth, you know, it's on its third iteration. You know, the first iteration was on four channel. I went through the different history and I said, it's a psyop to get people good and decent Americans to sit on the, on the sofa, drinking beer, watching football. And I got death threats for,
for a year. No, that's not fair. That's not what it's about. It was to get Americans sitting on the couch rooting for martial law and the execution of pedophiles on closed caption TV. Right, but they were never going to do it themselves. That's why they're buying the, they want instant macaroni and cheese with burgers. A ten year supply of it. They want it because they're watching football. So they never have to do anything or grow a farm or anything. They just they they make they're like, I'm going to get a bonus. I'm going to spend it on that. And then and then I can watch football. And so. For real,
the psychology of Americans is fascinating. That's why I was like, this Mr. Robot shit is bonkers. Why would they put that on? I mean, it is. So anything, if you watch Psyop Cinema, guys, you don't get to, Aaron, you don't get to make a movie and put stars and bars on an airplane and then say what the government's going to do Unless you get pre-approval on a script, right? So everything that's out there, and there's some bonkers crazy shit too. I mean, there's Larry Ellison. There's stuff on Paramount now. God, there was some series that...
Anyway... It goes the distance, man. It's continuity. It's just bonkers at why. So there's maxims. Aaron, I don't know what your maxims are. You have good ones, but maybe consciously you don't repeat them. one one great maxim is uh truth in movies like the news is a hundred percent lie but there is a shit loads of truth in in actual movies and series yeah you know what i mean yep that's very true look i hate to do this but i've got to get i need to get
off and uh i gotta go to the bathroom and stretch a little bit because i have a ten o'clock podcast that uh It might go for an hour and a half. I'm actually a little tired, too. But listen, I hope you guys come back. This was a great conversation. We didn't write a book. We should. Next time, we will write a book. We might need to do a book on the orbs. Yeah. Aaron, I replied to that email. I'm not sure if it goes to you, but I said hi to you this afternoon. Okay. I haven't checked my – I'll take a look. Yeah. Yeah, love to talk with you guys again. But next time, let's use my platform because I've got end-to-end encryption and we can talk a little bit more about stuff that they
don't want us to talk about. All right, well, it's better. I like talking about this kind of stuff publicly, but sure, yeah, maybe we can check that out. So let me see. Hold on here. Hey, guys, but seriously, Aaron Day, I want you on my platform because I've got a new podcast, everything coming out, and I've got G. Edward Griffin, and I've got thousands and thousands of members from John Birch. I'm trying to build this up and sell it off. Love to have you guys. How can we follow you? Where are you at? www.freedom.buzz.
B-U-Z-Z. Got it. Thanks. Got it. Awesome. All right. Well, thank you, guys. I'm going to play the new Confidential Layer music video on the way out. And so we'll be back on Monday at six p.m. Eastern time. Have a great night. Thanks, guys.
