⚠️ BILLIONAIRE IS BULLISH ON XRP! ADMITS HE WAS WRONG! HBAR, GAMING COINS & CRYPTO NEWS TODAY!

In this 30‑minute market update, Crypto Mason (Mason Versluis) delivers a rapid‑fire rundown of the current crypto landscape. He starts by explaining the psychological significance of the $1.5 trillion total‑market‑cap level and reviews his Bitcoin long position, using the Patience.io “Patient’s Kit” indicator to assess trend‑line breaks and potential price targets around $43‑$44 k. He then highlights the day’s biggest gainers (Osmosis, ATOM) and losers (Synthetix, Avalanche). The bulk of the video focuses on several thematic asset clusters: XRP – Mason plays a clipped interview with billionaire Mike Novogratz, who admits he was wrong about XRP’s long‑term viability, praising Ripple’s institutionalisation. Mason adds a technical short‑entry analysis on the 12‑hour chart using the Patience Kit. HBAR – He reviews Hedera’s October council meeting minutes, noting the upcoming e‑ballot for new council members (including potential entrants like Chainlink, Ubisoft) and recent partnership announcements (ArcX exchange, massive new account creation). He points out a triple‑top formation near $0.077. Gaming & Metaverse Tokens – He lists Fusionist (Binance Launchpad), Xverse (Immutable launch), Gala, Rainmaker (DUEL conversion), Enjin, and Illuvium as bullish picks. Real‑World Asset Tokens – Propy (PRO) is showcased for tokenised real‑estate listings and escrow services; USP is introduced as a security‑token platform planning a Republic launch. DEX Whale Tracking – Mason demonstrates how to locate high‑value wallets on DexScreener, then trace their activity via Zuriyon and Zapper, emphasizing the transparency of on‑chain balances. Ledger Data Harvesting – He warns viewers that Ledger Live reportedly sends usage data to Segment.io, advising caution but still trusting the hardware wallet. Sponsored Segments – Brief promotions for Inspect.xyz (Web3 layer‑2 for X), Bybit (exchange with AI‑powered TradeGPT), and Aegis AI (AI‑driven smart‑contract auditing). Throughout, Mason urges viewers to like, comment, join the “Gold Squad” Discord, and consider the Patience.io membership for deeper indicator access. The video blends market commentary, technical analysis, news aggregation, and promotional content.

What is up? I am Crypto Mason and welcome back to the Crypto Mason YouTube channel. Shout out to the Gold Squad. We look for gold in every single aspect of our lives and we always find it. Now today we are back for another market update. We have a lot of stuff to talk about, including the title of the video, which is a billionaire coming around to the power of XRP and confirming it as a actual powerful gem. Now we're also going to talk about HBAR, uh, we're going to talk about a bunch of different small-cap gems that I have found. We're also nearing the end of the video, going to show you how to track the biggest DEX wallet traders' addresses. So these are people, and we're going to show an example, who go from $2,000 all the way to $2 million in their wallets. This guy we're gonna track went to over a billion dollars. And that is not BS, that's— that is legitimate. It's all tracked on the blockchain. We're going to show you how to do that. But before we start, make sure you drop a like and comment on the video. Join the Gold Squad Discord, it is free to join. Also, if you want to level up your trading and get a full trading indicator suite and membership to private Discord, we do have Patience.io down below. But let's hop into the market here. $1.5 trillion, slight little update on the total market cap that we're watching. Uh, I wanted to remind you guys of where this $1.5 trillion level even comes from, because I was watching this and I'm like, well, where does this level even come from and why does it actually matter? First of all, $1.5 trillion is a psychological number. Any number that's even like that, excluding like 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, but the big ones like 1, 1.5, 2, and all the way up are going to be psychological levels. For example, that $1 trillion one is a big one and we watched that for so long. But now we are doing a very, very true test of the 1.5. Now, where this actually comes from is back here. Back in February or near the start of 2022. Uh, we saw several different bounces off of that level. Uh, we also saw one in August of 2021 and a big fight with that level in, uh, June of 2021. So that's really where this comes from. I am still in my Bitcoin long. Uh, another update on, uh, the patient's kit right here on the 4-hour chart. We can see that the trend line we have actually broke down and into the red right here. This is using the Patient's Kit indicator. We can see this, this trend very clearly. Also, as I said in the previous video, we were going to see a test of the home line, which is this line that runs through the middle. Now, what you'll notice with the Patient's Kit indicator is that every time we touch the top or bottom of the band, we tend to either go back to the home line, which is, which is this middle trend line, or we go down and touch the bottom of the range that's presented by these bands. Okay, so where are we headed right now? Well, it's extremely hard to tell. Bitcoin is chilling at 41K. Sorry, my long is in at 41.9. Uh, the theory behind that is that we are going to head back up to where we were, which is $43, $44, and that long would be very profitable. So just waiting, kind of seeing where Bitcoin's going to end up. As for the biggest gainers today, a lot of stuff is back in the green. Osmosis and Atom are pumping like crazy. Both of these I've talked about infrequently over the years, uh, but I am bullish on Cosmos and, uh, Osmosis. Right? Osmosis is a DeFi protocol built on Cosmos, and that ecosystem is so expansive, it is crazy. Aelf is another one we have talked about, or elf. Uh, this was on the Singapore blockchain, uh, list. And then we got Aptos, KuCoin. So not too much interesting coins pumping today. Uh, the biggest losers, we've got Synthetix, which is a great project. We got Avalanche, and some other ones. But let's take a look at the HBAR chart right here. I wanted to show you something. Uh, we look pretty good at this 7-cent level. Like, this is, this is amazing that we're at 7 cents and we're not just hanging out, um, around 5 cents, right? Which we spent so much time, um, dancing around that 5 cents. And, you know, it did give you one opportunity at the start of this year to get in at that 3 cents. And hopefully, uh, we do get another opportunity for that. But even, you know, 4.5 cents is good too. Uh, this does look good though, and we've got some good HBAR news, so stick around, um, for the remainder of the video. We also— I wanted to show you my long. This thing was down 30% the other day. It's now down 15%. It did go back to break even. I use Fairdesk to trade on. We also do copy trading on Fairdesk, but Fairdesk, great exchange for USA, great exchange for Canada and everywhere. Make sure to sign up using the link below and you will get 5% rebates on all your trading fees. And if you are a Gold Squad VIP or a Patience member, you get 15% rebates on all your trading fees. And also $100K deposit bonus, which is crazy. But that long, I'm sticking it out. I honestly don't care. I'm gonna stick it out. Now, I, I have been talking a lot about gaming coins. We're also going to show you a new— well, it's not new, but it's a, it's a straight-up gem that's in the real estate, uh, sector, the RWA, real-world asset sector. But these are some of the gaming projects I'm bullish on. We've got Fusionist, which is launching soon. If you want to know how to get into Fusionist early, you're going to have to go through the Binance Launchpad. So all you got to do is go to Fusionist on Twitter, Fusionist.io, and take a look into that Binance Launchpad. And if Binance is available in your area, you could probably start farming it by staking some BNB. Then we've got Xverse, who recently just announced that they're launching on Immutable. Uh, this is one I am in. Their token is coming very soon. Then we've got Gala, we've got Rainmaker, uh, which my last video was a deep dive into Rainmaker. Crazy opportunity there as well as they're doing a conversion event for their token into their new token DUEL. And then we've got Enjin. And one of them I forgot on here was Illuvium. Illuvium is definitely on my list, uh, as well. Now Let's keep it moving. Let's get into the Hedera news today. HBAR has had their governing council meeting for October and the minutes have been released. So here's the document that they put out. This is the Hedera council meeting minutes. Uh, you can see who attended. So you can see people from Dell, Boeing, uh, Google. There was some people, LG, Swirlds, just basically all the council members. There were representatives from there, but we want to zoom in on this paragraph down here. Look at what this says. Simon Oh, in his role as MEMCOM co-chair, provided an update on the pipeline of prospective council members. So new council members were discussed, and he shared that shortly after the meeting, an e-ballot would be issued to the council members to vote on a prospective member. This is big. So all of the council members, that includes Google, that includes IBM, all the big boys are going to vote on who the new council member should be. This is very, very nice. Uh, here's the members that weren't present as well. Chainlink, interesting. Ubisoft. Some of them weren't present in the October meeting. Um, but dang, I think there could be a council, uh, member coming soon. And if there is, I mean, HBAR could skyrocket in value depending on who that council member is. Generally, we do see some green on the days where, where that is announced or leading up. And you could argue that we, you know, we've had a nice pump here from 6 cents. Actually, since October, uh, we've had a nice pump already coming up, but that is nothing compared to what we could do. Also, you notice this 7.7 level is pretty crazy, right? I hope we can break that. You can see a clear triple top right here, 12-hour chart. Very interesting stuff. Now, HBAR, it's basically a daily occurrence that they have a new partner. Uh, today we had Arcax— ArcX, I think it's called. And Arkex is based in London, and they are the next evolution in digital assets trading. Okay, but they have just announced support for HBAR, uh, HBAR staking actually, uh, and they have further integrated support for the Hedera network and Hedera Token Service. So that's big for HBAR. Um, Arkex, I've never heard of them until now, but that is one you could probably research. They do not have a token. But it looks like, uh, it's a global regulated digital asset exchange. Very interesting. Now another piece of HBAR news, uh, there's been a huge increase in created new accounts. Over 30,000 new accounts in the last 24 hours, uh, and 314,000 new accounts created in the last 30 days. Very nice, uh, right there. Now Let's talk about the gem of this video. This is PROPI, uh, PRO token. We can head over to their token on, uh, CoinMarketCap here and see it, uh, right here. PROPI. You can see we have recently just absolutely exploded. The 1-month chart is up 62%, uh, we've got a 7-day chart up 27%, and on the year we're only up 27%. This thing has an all-time high of around $4 or $5, I believe. It is on Coinbase already, um, it's on Bitrue as well, it's on Uniswap. Um, so that's, that's pretty good exchange listings to get on Coinbase, uh, right there against the US dollar. But Propy basically is providing, uh, tokenized real estate opportunities. So if we go to the Propy Twitter right here. They are a real-world asset leader in real estate. They are licensed— they have US-licensed escrow on smart contracts, over $4 billion transactions, uh, real estate NFT investor. Now let's go to the Propy website and we can check this out. This is one that both me and Megan are holding for the long term. 24/7 real estate closings. They're leveraging AI and blockchain tech for smooth and secure transactions. So basically you can get on here and, and determine if you're a buyer, seller, or an agent, or if you're just curious. And they have tons of different listings on here. So if we click this $8.2 million property— holy cow— if we click this, it will load up and it'll show their accepted currencies. So if they accept crypto, it will actually show on here because you can pay for, uh, pay with crypto, um, on this platform, which is very, very cool. You can also buy/sell a home, uh, as an NFT. Okay, so you can actually list your property as an NFT, which is extremely cool, um, on their NFT marketplace. So big shout out to Propy. This is absolutely one I'm watching. Also a big shout out to The Bearable Bull. He He's been supporting Propy for a long time, uh, and that's actually where I first found out about it. Propy, we have covered on this channel. I've talked about it before, uh, however, we're definitely going to be talking about it more, uh, now that they're making huge strides in what they're doing. And then obviously the other, uh, real estate token which we are advisors for is USP. Okay, and if we head to usp.io, They are the most secure financial path to financial freedom. They're allowing you to invest in real estate in 5 minutes from anywhere with as little as $1. Okay, so right now you do have to be an accredited investor as USP is a security token, but they're going to be doing a launch on Republic, a raise where everyday investors will be able to get in. Uh, and you can see some of the things they have here. They've got a lot of nice blog posts as well if you want to learn about what security tokens are. That's something we've talked about a lot on this channel. Now let's keep it moving. Let's move into Mike Novogratz is the billionaire who has just admitted that he was wrong about XRP. Okay, Bearable Bull says this is a massive endorsement from someone who is not the biggest fan of XRP. The truth will always weigh more than opinions. And the truth was always that Ripple and XRP have been fundamentally strong. Now we're going to let this clip play. This is just like magic to our ears, music to our ears, hearing someone like this admit this. Listen to this.
I was skeptical that XRP would have lasting power because Ripple, the company, owns 60% of them now, 55% or 50%. And I was like, that just doesn't seem a proposition that's going to work. And I've been dead wrong. Hats off to Brad Garlinghouse and his team. Ripple is now, you know, an institution. Uh, you know, the XRP Army is real. Uh, they care about their ecosystem and their coin.
Look at the passion when he's saying this though. Like, basically he was skeptical because XR— or, uh, Ripple owns 60% of the XRP. Now this is actually not true. They own less than 50% of the XRP, and it's all tied up in an escrow which they cannot use. They can't just go and dump the XRP on you. Do you know how, how many, how many partnerships that would screw up and how many, you know, lawsuits would come if they did that? They cannot cross that escrow rule. So he says, you know, he was dead wrong and hats off to Brad Garlinghouse and his team. He calls Ripple an institution. Now, is this a guy— is this a guy who was interested in XRP but didn't like that they were being sued and has now seen that they're like— they basically fought the SEC off and have gotten past that, and now he's willing to show his support? Right? This is a real billionaire right here. This is Michael Novogratz, right? And you can see like he is the, um, he's the current CEO of Galaxy Investment Partners. Uh, he did a bunch of crazy stuff, bunch of crazy stuff. This dude was in Kanye West's documentary. They were out in like Hawaii or something talking. He was talking directly one-on-one with Kanye West and Mike Novogratz. Uh, but this is huge. Like, that's actually a huge endorsement. And this video was actually behind some kind of paywall. Uh, this was behind some Real Vision, um, paywall thing, so people couldn't see this. But now it's been clipped out, and I mean, that's amazing news right there. Now that's really the only XRP news we have, uh, for today's video. There's not much happening. If we go to the patient's kit on XRP on the 12-hour. First of all, amazing entry opportunity, uh, right here for a long-term short. Uh, so basically, if you don't know how this works, like, we can rewind the chart, right? So this is what the chart would have been looking like, and you would have been like, dang, like, we're getting close to— or we're getting really out of these bands, right? And then you wait 12 hours and you see that candle. Then you wait 12 hours and you see this, right? So what does this mean? This means there was a ton of bears trying to push the price down to 65 cents, but the bulls pushed it back up. So we would wait another 12 hours and we see more bearish, uh, more bearish pressure, right, filled out by bulls pushing it back up. And then I would say, like, I wouldn't be entering right now right? Because you're seeing, uh, how this works out. But as we cross into the bands now, right, this is almost where you should— or this is where you would have entered, uh, on your short. So let's say you entered a short. Let's say you even caught the bad end of the wick, right? This was a 12-hour period, so you could have caught it at 64 cents. Then we just see how the trade plays out over time, and now boom, you have printed all the way down here to 57 cents, right? So 57 cents, and now you're just, you're just toying along, toying along. And then now this is where the chart, uh, is. So people underestimate how much profit this actual jump can be from 64 to 58. Only— that's all you need to absolutely print bags. That's all you need is a small move like that if you have the capital. If we go down to the 1-hour time frame on this, you can see even more amazing entries here. Right here, you could have caught that all the way down to the bottom and then back to the middle. But that is basic trend trading, uh, with the— excuse me— Patience Kit that you can get at patience.io. And by the way, Patience is way more than just indicators. It's, it's a full membership. There's a private Discord with tons of members in there. Uh, but let's move on to this and then we'll show you how to actually talk, uh, track the top DEX traders. That honestly, that should be a video on its own, but we're gonna put it in this one. Researcher has found a data harvesting inside the Ledger Live app. Oh my goodness, folks, come on. So basically Ledger is tracking like everything down to your page scrolls, your installs, your page visit, redirections, actions. Everything is being sent, um, to a certain firm, okay? They're sending it to segment.io, so they're harvesting your data. So Ledger has been caught in a bunch of different stuff like this, right? And do I still trust Ledger? I do. They're not going to screw up that bad, right? This is obvious. You should know that this is happening, right? That's— it probably is in the terms of service for the Ledger Live app. This type of thing wouldn't make me uninstall Ledger or stop using Ledger. Um, honestly, just use Arculus, bro. Getarculus.com. Now let's get into the DEX trading. So this is a thread by Kaiser, and he has found this wallet that has went to 1.8 billion. And people, there's no faking the blockchain, right? There is no faking the blockchain. This guy cannot fake his wallet balance. That's the purpose of crypto, is nothing is fakeable, right? You cannot fake this balance in your wallet. Uh, actually, technically you could if you had a bunch of random, like, meme coins in there, uh, illiquid meme coins, right? Uh, but this, this wallet is, is definitely not that. So what he shows is that his, uh, first profit, he made $100 million on Shiba. So that was his first, uh, profit. Then his next profit, he made $114K on Quant. Then he made $70K on CRO. Then he made $70K on Miladies. Then he made $28K on AGIX. Uh, and you can track the rest of his trades in the way we're about to show you. So how to do this is you're going to go to dexscreener.com. Okay, dexscreener.com. So once you're on Dex Screener, you're going to go and sort by liquidity. And now let's pick something like Rollbit. Okay, so RLB. And then Dex Screener has this awesome little feature right here called Top Traders. You're going to click on that. It's, it's right above my camera there. You can see my mouse. And then you can see all these people with profit and loss statements. Like, this guy made $3 mil, this guy made $1 mil, right? Like, these people making insane amounts of money. Uh, you know, this guy bought $20K worth and profited $700K. So what you're gonna do, let's select one of these. We're gonna click his wallet, um, and you can see he's hold— you can see exactly what he's holding. So it looks like he has some scam tokens in there, um, and some other stuff. Uh, but we're gonna copy his address, uh, right here. We're going to copy his address and we're going to paste it into a platform called Zuriyon. So once we paste his address into Zuriyon, you can go to his history and you can easily see his trades or whatever he's done. So this one, you know, it doesn't seem like he has any actual trades on here, which is weird. Uh, he's just receiving money, like he just received 10,000 USDT right there. But this is how you track them, right? And you can also go to zapper.xyz and plug someone's wallet in and easily see. So this looks like this is— this might be some kind of market maker bot or something. CoW Protocol. But you can also see exactly what DAO memberships he has, what holdings he has. That is how you track them. So it does take a little bit more effort to find the actual traders that are doing stuff like this. And that are real people and not bots. But I think that's a super valuable way to do that. Now let's move on to our sponsored section for today's video. This is Inspect.xyz. This is the layer 2 built for Twitter or X, so you can instantly turn X into a Web3 platform. So they have an all-in-one extension and web app uh, that can basically turn Twitter into a Web3 platform. You can level up your trading, DeFi, and NFT decisions. Uh, they have exponential user adoption, um, and basically all you do is come over here to download now, and then boom, you will be on the Chrome Store. You can see they have over 50,000 users already, uh, rated 5 stars, and essentially Uh, you can check out this video as well. Let's play this video. This will be good. So it's a layer 2 of a Web2 platform, which is super cool. So basically it can show you and aggregate crypto news. You can discover top new, uh, top movers. Uh, very cool platform. They do have a token called, uh, INSP right here for 23 cents. Uh, 17% up the— on the year and the month. Uh, it also looks like— it looks like they just launched, uh, as well back in December, so literally 6 days ago. So this is a fresh, uh, small market cap. Nothing I say in this video is financial advice. They're already on KuCoin, Uniswap, Bybit, uh, Bitget, MEXC, all of those different exchanges. So shout out to Inspect, great project. Take a look at them. Speaking of Bybit, uh, we do have a sponsor for today from Bybit. Make sure to go sign up using the link in the description for Bybit. You can get a special bonus when using our link. Make sure to check the list of restricted countries, uh, so that you know you can actually, uh, trade on Bybit. But they are one of the most extensive crypto platforms of all time. They're doing a 1 million USDT prize pool right now, uh, and you can do, you know, peer-to-peer trading on here. You can do copy trading, leverage trading, margin trading. They have bots as well. One of the cool things they also have is TradeGPT, leveraging AI-powered trading right there. And then they have these staking, uh, offerings as well. So make sure to go sign up Bybit. I've had nothing but an awesome experience, uh, with Bybit. Very cool, uh, exchange and one of the main ones that I recommend people use if they're looking for one. Now, final sponsor for today is Aegis. Uh, this is Aegis AI. Uh, I believe they recently got their CoinMarketCap listing right here. Uh, and this is a new token as well. They just launched on December 4th. Excuse me, they're only on Uniswap. I really encourage you guys, if you're gonna do your research and get some— a bag of Aegis— I'm holding a bag of Aegis for the long term. Uh, if you're gonna do it, make sure you get the correct contract address. Do not get scammed, right? There's only one real Aegis token. But what Aegis is, is pioneering blockchain security with AI-enabled audit solutions. So this is a security niche project, uh, slash AI, basically doing AI-powered smart contract auditing tools. Uh, they have the penetration test as well, which is very cool. But go through their website, take a look. They use AI to do proper audits here. Only 100 million total supply on the token as well, and they've got some awesome features here. You can also monitor Telegram bots of project groups in real time. You can run quick audits from dApps using AI. And their, their Twitter as well is definitely something to follow, Aegis AI Security. They're doing a lot of great announcements on here, uh, and very nice branding and everything. And recently they also just hit 2,500 holders. So very ground floor. Big shout out to Aegis. Uh, make sure you drop a like. This was a long video, but I love every single one of you. Drop a like, join the Gold Squad Discord, and goodbye.
