BTC

Great insights!

Tapiero looks like the kind of guy who gets in the lane and has an assortment of pump fakes, up and under moves, and jump hooks. You look up and he's got 24 points and 11 rebounds.

Good stuff!

Love Raoul and RV, but the way these guys jerk each other off when they say "we are macro guys" gets fucking old lol

i think raoul puts on another bracelet every time bitcoin goes up another 1k

Great interview Raoul, thanks. I love the fact that you are looking outside the box with regard to alternatives to Ethereum and indeed BTC. I respect the fact that Dan was honest and wasn't prepared to speculate due to lack of understanding. It is true that there is a great deal to try and take in, with regard to this space. I understand that I am just another point of noise and who am I and what would I know? Having been in this space for some time wanting answers to all these same questions that I hear you consistently ask, is the exact reason I found Cardano. I have spent a countless amount of hours asking these same questions. Charles Hoskinson of IOG formally IOHK and the brains behind Cardano, has an incredible insight into this entire space and has an equally incredible ability to explain much of this space from a Macro perspective and in lay mans terms. I think ETH and DOT will have its place in this space. But DOT and ETH are never going to replace Wall St, Chicago, London or Tokyo, but I think Cardano can. I have also heard you say many times that the space needs people that can speak the language of the people in the finance world. So if you don't want to speak to Charles the reach out to Frederick Gregaard. He is the current CEO of the Cardano Foundation and a former PWC guy who can indeed speak the right language for the space that you have created for the Real Vision subscribers. I have been following you for some time now and I have long felt you would do yourself and the Real Vision community a genuinely good turn by talking to either of these incredible individuals. Never the less, thank you for what you do and provide to this space. I for one have learnt a great deal from you and your team. Oh and with regard to NFT's, think music industry and let your mind wander for a minute. Anyway, I'm a no body and what would I know. I guess I and many others that value your view feel Cardano is right up your alley! Much respect, Jim Robins

Anyone else finding it funny when they celebrate Chad?

Always good to get Dan on.

I'm not generally a fan of 'modern art' but I really like that piece behind Dan. Kind of like a cloud and a ribbon catching the sun.

Dan mentioned a RealVision interview with Alex Wizinski (?). I can’t seem to find that one in the crypto section. Anyone know how to find it? Thanks.

Where to find the celsius security interview Dan talks about on this site?

Dear Real Vision, I think it's about time to plan the next step. You will democratize finance with your own cryptocurrency.

Thank you gentleman, great discussion. Dan, sounds like you will end of being the Barry Diller (on line business aggregator) of the crypto world.

Such a great invetview, well done to Raoul to let Dan run with his content and thoughts, only chiming in to swing the direction at the right time.

Finally - an investor who can summarize some of the digital space. Any chance get ARCA analyst along with CIO in whatever order

Yea great interview. Lovely work, insightful information especially about DCG.

great interview from a philosophical standpoint. it wouldn't surprise me if btc didn't fall as dramatically in the next down move as because its hard money , the natural tendency is that will be saved

My 1st video as a new Essential Member. Glad to enjoy the community!

RV subs have rights to invest in 10T? :)

Dan is smart and humble

Picks and shovels - great analogy.

One of my fave crypto videos so far. As Raoul said at the end, the sheer transparency was extremely informative, I was taking notes like crazy, and Dan's humility is very engaging. This touched on so many crypto points I'd been curious about, and I like his investment strategy.

Very helpful !!

Fantastic as always with Dan

Great job! Really enjoyed the discussion.

Best of luck to DTAP and 10T. Probably a very good way to play the space and will most likely be very successful. I think the issue with crypto as store of value/wealth is that central banks will eventually confront the loss of control in commerce that crypto poses to them and as Jim Rogers says they have the guns. I suspect the PBOC/PRC with the launch of the digital yuan will be the first to decide to intervene meaningfully and start dismantling this to the extent they deem necessary to eliminate any hinderance to the success of the digital yuan. The attractiveness of crypto is that it allows private citizens to attempt to bypass the realities of the world with live in with the inherent issues of governments issuing debt and debasing the fiat currencies we all use daily. Yellen may or may not have the gumption to tighten regulations to a degree that would impair continued development of crypto as a store of value -- perhaps even using the ESG logic as an excuse to intervene. However, the PRC has no problem capitating any threat it sees to the advancement of its own interests. They have big plans for the digital yuan as it will really provide them a great degree of control over the population. Tokenization/blockchain for commerce uses beyond a means as a store of value hold greater promise imho and this fund address that. The quest for store of value immune to the realities of the world is only natural but naive. You cant escape certain things but rather have to live with them and adjust to them. I still think the best way to play this current period is to go long Asian EM equities.

Great conversation. Thanks so much, gents. Once caveat though, BlockFi didn't carve out the borrowing and lending space.. Celsius did.

"You and I just can't get into the weeds about this technology because we just can't" Love it Raoul.

im not a crypto bull but i always enjoy the dialogue between these two.

Amazing paint

Dan Tapiero speaks to me. As a financial/technology guy, I avoid excessive deep dives into crypto. Unless you keep up with it, you risk having old information and risk bad decisions. Right info + right people = right solution. Bad info kills you. It also reminded me of an old banking saying - "everybody makes money on a new idea for five years until banks show you how to lose money at it."

I've been following Dan and Raoul's crypto journey for the past 18 months, and always enjoy hearing them chat about the space!

Hi Dan. Exactly what I’m looking for. How can a small accredited investor invest? Who is my contact?

Why not invite the founders of these projects on to explain precisely how their projects differ from the competitors? How does their project give them a moat over others? E,g, pace of innovation, technical correctness / probability, relationships with business and government, scalability, interoperability, decentralization, performance etc.

Great interview, talk about dropping some knowledge bombs

Dan has really made his homework. Would love to see Raouls prediction for this year is coming. TYVM

Awesome and thank you! Looking forward to the Figure Acquisition Corp. on NYSE.

"Picks and Shovels"....Way to go guys, great conversation!!

Would love to hear from an NFT expert. Just a basic NFT 101 episode. There’s so much to wrap your head around, feels a lot like when I first started taking bitcoin seriously - there’s something there and it could be huge but I just don’t know enough to understand why.

He investment and endowment based on hearsay. Solid. He won’t own Dogecoin but buys BTC lmao!

Anyone investing in this space needs to check out the Hedera network and hbar. Valued just under a billion abd itll be a top 3 to 5 market cap. Best assymetric risk reward I’ve seen. It is the enterprise solution.

Kudos to Dan for jumping all in. Most guys at his age are scared and immediately dismiss the whole thing. While we don't know the winners, the blockchain is going to disrupt money, banking, trading, insurance, legal, voting, etc. Will take a decade to get there and plenty of minefields along the way, but interesting strategy.

My Highlight, always, when those two come together!! Thanks for sharing your thoughts

Excellent discussion. With regards to only 1 - 2 % holding / having crypto accounts ....I take it that this does not take into account all the people that hold $GBTC, QBTC, BTCC etc and will not buy the physical so to speak ?

I use both Kraken and Binance for trading: Kraken is like a boomer, always close to get heart attack at every crypto corrections
