The fact that the the president of the of the United States, the most important country in the world, has done this, this is just unprecedented. And and I I think, like, the world will never be the same because of it.
At least in my opinion, this is unquestionably bullish for crypto, and a massive inflection point in the industry. I do think there's a legitimate view on this as well, which is, you know or there's a question that we should be asking is, should a president be allowed to do this?
The Trump coin is much bigger than just a meme. It's a global Trump crypto army. And 3, we think this was the biggest crypto onboarding event of all time, and we think we're just getting started. Alright. We got 450 people in here. We got people are piling in. I think we should jump in. I think we should start with, just what in the world so thanks everyone for joining. We just I I'm like, there's so much that happened this weekend. It's probably the craziest weekend I have ever seen in crypto. Maybe there's a few other ones that go down that, you know, Santu remembers, but this is insane week
it yeah.
It got nuts. And then things kept going. Right? World Liberty did a token sale, sold out. They started staking, like, 15,000,000 of ETH, I think. And then you started having other things like the Ethereum Foundation. There's all this other side stuff with the Ethereum Foundation. And all the while right?

So I was actually flying, while I was, while this came out, and I saw the tweet almost immediately. And I was like, really? My first reaction was he must have gone hacked. And and now there's actually leaked messages of a screenshot of someone DM ing Elon. Elon's like, I don't know. He was like, the shrug emoji. I mean, it just felt, like, surreal. And this was, mind you, in the last podcast, we were talking about, like, people were like, is is the Trump administration really gonna fall like, you know, follow through with his crypto plans? And I'm like, my immediate reaction was it must be a s

I guess so. And it didn't register in my head. Right? Yeah. It took me 2 hours to about this. God. This is the Yeah. This
is the thing. I'll give him an hour or 2. If he doesn't discredit or take down the post, it must be legit. But it felt so surreal. I mean, I I tweeted. Like, I've I've seen crazy stuff in this industry. Nothing like this. And then after that, I'm like, I'm doing the math right now how big this is getting. So I I basically swapped my entire meme portfolio to this, all of it. One one sweep. I was like, okay. The this like, did we just never had this type of stuff?
