In this solo YouTube episode, self‑styled "Crypto Mason" opens with a personal anecdote and announces a giveaway of 800 XRP split between two winners, promising a live draw. He then delivers a rapid‑fire market snapshot, citing current prices for Bitcoin (~$60k), Ethereum, Cardano ($1.28), Theta ($8.69), Enjin, Kusama, IOTA, VeChain, Crypto.com, HBAR, and others, interspersed with his own holdings and price expectations (e.g., Enjin could hit $5 by year‑end). The host highlights Pundi X’s upcoming token redenomination (NPXS → Pundi X at a 1,000:1 ratio) and explains how exchanges like Bitrue will handle the automatic swap. He references a think‑tank (OMFIF) linking Ripple and Algorand, jokingly dismissing the need for investment advice. A personal grievance against Kraken is aired, advising viewers not to use the exchange after his account was banned. Mason expresses fatigue with repetitive Ripple SEC lawsuit coverage and Cardano news, correcting a misconception that IOTA has no fees and noting Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson’s commentary. He then cites Rekt Capital’s analysis that the altcoin market cap could potentially grow 27,000 % in a year, framing it as a speculative but exciting prospect. Legal updates follow: attorneys note the SEC’s limited understanding of Ripple’s “fair notice” defense, and Ripple executives Brad Garlinghouse and Chris Larsen have been granted a deadline to file motions to dismiss. The host sharply criticizes Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s remarks that CBDCs must coexist with cash, labeling them intellectually dishonest, and ties the discussion to cross‑border payment inefficiencies—areas where Ripple’s XRP serves as a bridge currency. He clarifies that the Fed’s Volant VolPay platform will only potentially use XRP, with a layer of separation via Volant Technologies. Finally, Mason promotes the EU‑licensed exchange CoinMetro, walking viewers through the sign‑up and verification process, highlighting its support for XRP, Quant, and security tokens, and urging viewers to use his referral link. The video ends with gratitude, a call to subscribe, enable notifications, follow on Twitter, and a farewell.

I met this girl in a subway walking my way. It must have been my day. Hey, seemed like the perfect match for me. So she said to me, can you give me what I want? I don't know about you, but I feel so— What is up? I am Crypto Mason. In this video, we are going to do what we do every single day on this channel. We are going to dive into the crypto markets. We have so much, so much interesting news coming out. We've got some Pundi X A lot of, uh, good news for XRP. We've got some Bitcoin news, some IOTA, Cardano, Federal Reserve, Quant. We're gonna hop into it, but before we do, a couple announcements. I will be going live on my YouTube to announce the winner, the randomly selected— I'm gonna randomly select the winner, um, for the 800 XRP. There's 2 winners, 400 XRP each. That will be tomorrow, 9 AM to 12 AM, 9, 9 to like 11. I'll be PST, I'll be, I'll be live sometime during then. Also, at the end of this video, I'm going to show you how you can get Ocean XRP, Quant, whatever you want, Enjin easily in the United States, but specifically XRP. I'm going to show you how you can get it in the USA. Um, shout out to Awake. He sent me this link to the platform I'm going to show you. I'm going to show you at the end of this video how you can do it. It was very simple for me to set up and I'm going to show you that. Before we get into it, make sure that you subscribe, turn the post notification bell on so that you never miss an upload. And let's hop into this news and these markets. We've got an almost $60,000 Bitcoin. I'm loving that. I'm loving this Ethereum right here. I still hold a bunch of Ethereum. Cardano, $1.28. This had a run and it crashed like 10%. Hold up, where is it? Yeah, right here. Um, I thought the Coinbase Pro news was gonna really, really skyrocket it, but I guess it didn't. Hopefully we see HBAR, we see What else? Hopefully we see HBAR on Coinbase. I would love to see that. XRP under 50 cents still. Everything is looking green. Theta continues to blow my mind. I wish I got in when I learned about Theta. It is now $8.69. Um, I do believe Enjin will also reach those heights. Possibly by the end of year. It'll at least reach $5 by end of year. Um, but everything's looking pretty good. Look at Kusama, almost $400. I wish I didn't sell. IOTA chilling. Um, look at VeChain as well, 8 cents. I'm still waiting for VeChain run. Look at Crypto.com, $0.23. Amazing. What's HBAR doing? Let's check them out. Let's check them out. HBAR is a he, by the way. It has to be a he because it's, um, Saturn. 35 cents. Let's move into the news. The Pundi X— how is Pundi X doing? Oh yeah, it's a top gainer. Pundi X has been a top gainer. Look at that, look at that. I think it's the top gainer on here. Let's check 24 hours. No, Harmony One. Wow, I love Harmony One, by the way. I do not have any. I don't know what AR is, but look at Pundi X, 31% up. Um, I used to have some Qtum, but I do not anymore. But Pundi X is doing the token reduction officially on March 30th. NPXS will turn into Pundi X, so their ticker is even changing. Um, the token redenomination swap will commence on March 30th. If you click this article, also look at Bitrue. Bitrue will be supporting the Pundi X. Bitrue is so amazing. I love Bitrue as an exchange. This article does not seem to load. It will— we'll see if we can stay on it, but something might happen to it. You can swap 1,000 NPXS tokens for 1 Pundi X token. Basically, if you hold it on an exchange and supporting exchange, it will be automatic. So you want— you don't even need to do anything. Um, but definitely go to their Twitter. Go to their Twitter and click on this if you want to know. Oh my, I clicked something. If you want to know how to swap your Pondi X. Now Kevin Cage says, thanks Darren, OMFIF. Friendly reminder that Ripple and Algorand have some deep ties with this think tank, OMFIF. Over $39 trillion of investable assets here working with central banks, and he says nothing to see here, nothing to see here. Ripple and Algorand, look at that. DMI members— Ripple is listed right there, um, and Algorand is listed right there on the Official Monetary and Financial Institutions Forum. Global public investors with investable assets of $39.5 trillion at the heart of this network. Um, yeah, definitely nothing to see here, right? Definitely should not invest in, in XRP. Definitely not, right? I'm joking, by the way. Algorand and Ripple are some of my— two of my absolute favorites. Supercycle may propel Bitcoin over $1 million. Says Dan Held. Dan Held is the founder of Kraken. Screw Kraken. I do not use their exchange. I don't recommend using their exchange at all. They banned my account for no reason. I woke up and I looked at my email and my account was banned. I believe it actually did have a reason. It was for an incorrect birthday, but they didn't let me change it. They just banned my account. So do not use Kraken. I do not like Kraken. I mean, if you have an account, it's okay. Continue to use it, but I do not recommend signing up for Kraken. That's what they get for banning my account for no reason. Um, don't use Kraken. Okay, IOTA, look at this, look at this. Okay, two things I'm tired of right now in crypto, two things I'm absolutely tired of. I am tired of hearing Ripple SEC lawsuit news. I am tired of it. Let's just end this BS. Another thing I'm tired of: hearing Cardano news for no reason. Zero reason. I'm tired of Ripple SEC news, and I'm tired of seeing Cardano news. If we look, this Cardano creator blah blah blah, Charles Hoskin, every single, every single time I look at Crypto Panic He's in there. Cardano creator says that IOTA actually has fees. It's a common misconception that IOTA doesn't have fees. Yeah, it does. They're just subsidized in a different way. Guys, there is network capacity, CPU, and data. It costs money. Nothing is free. So there he goes again, talking down on another per— well, not talking down, but he's There he goes again, talking about another project, um, and telling you things about them. IOTA doesn't care. Oh, he did weigh in. Uh, feeless does not mean incentiveless. So man, please, every time I see Charles Hoskinson talking, he's either just like— I don't know, I don't know. I'm gonna get off that because people get mad at me for for, uh, talking down on Cardano. I don't talk down on Cardano. I think it's amazing. It'll probably reach like $3, but I personally am not invested, therefore I barely pay attention to it. Altcoin market cap— this is amazing news right here. Altcoin market cap could grow by 27,000%. Of course they just chose 27. We love that number. If you watch any of my decoding videos on here $27K in one year. Here's the summary: the altcoin market cap broke past its 2017 highs in early February to post a high at $684 billion. It retested the highs in February before taking off. According to Rekt Capital, the altcoin market cap could be gearing up for something spectacular based on similar retest of an old all-time high in late 2016. If history repeats itself, which it does, the altcoin market cap could, could grow by $27,000 in one year. I really hope that this goes down, and I really do believe it will go down. Anyone who's telling you that this is coming to an end or something, no, we're not even there yet. We're not even— nothing's happening yet. Here we've got some SEC Ripple news. I'm tired of hearing about this. Attorney Kevin Chen, SEC does not fully understand Ripple's fair notice defense. Um, okay, doesn't really matter, doesn't really matter. Get this lawsuit over with and just move on. Here's some more. Ripple's Larsen Garlinghouse finally allowed to file a motion to dismiss. In the case against them. Um, Brad Garlinghouse and Chris Larsen have been allowed by the court to file a motion to dismiss the cases against them. They must file their motions by April 12th. So that's going down. Um, I guess that's a good thing. Now look at this guy, look at this absolute idiot. Federal Reserve's Powell— Jerome Powell says CBDCs need to coexist with cash. How can you be this stupid? How can you be this stupid? Why do we need physical paper to pass around? Why? How can you be this— he's smarter than that, by the way. They just lie. They just lie about what they know. He is being intellectually dishonest. That's the word of this whole millennia is intellectual dishonesty, because all they do is lie about what they know, and they say BS like this. We do not need this word right here. Why do we need to pass around paper? That doesn't make sense when I have— I'm half a cyborg and I have my phone in my hand at all times. I can use— I can just scan a QR code and boom. And they're already programming you at the grocery store— I mean, at the restaurants with the QR codes for the menus. Everywhere I go, there's a QR code. So this guy's being an absolute idiot. You've got over here, um, here's something I like that he said. Fed's Powell says ex-border payments are one of the less efficient areas of the financial system. X-border. This means cross-border, but of course they just need to put X-border. Um, and if we go to ripple.com, ripple.com is cross-border payments. That's what this is. That's what this is. Easily move money to the all the corners of the world efficiently. So He's saying it's a less efficient area. Hell yeah, that, that— I like what he's saying there, but here, no. Moving on right here, converting currencies is key. By the way, all these links are in the description to these articles and tweets. Um, this is from the Bank for International Settlements, and this is from a document that they have. For those central banks aiming to avoid competition from global stablecoins, it is a question of safety. A positive way to prevent widespread use of private global currencies is by fostering an efficient and convenient way to convert currencies. A CBDC compatible with others and benefiting from a diverse and competitive market for services would be a real public good. To achieve this, central banks will need to collaborate. If you know XRP is the bridge currency. It allows you to go from euros to whatever, rupees. It's the bridge in between. So an efficient and convenient way to convert currencies right there. And he put Quant right there as well. Matt says the US Fedwire will use Volant VolPay. This platform has the ability to switch on XRP if desired. The service is scheduled to go live in 2023 according to the Fed. Um, so as we— I did make a video about the Ripple partner Volant Technologies. Um, this is pretty misleading though. Volant Technologies is used by the US Fedwire as a service in the cloud, and then Ripple is just a partner of Volant Technologies. Meaning that they're working together and that there's always one layer in between. It's, it's never Ripple and Fedwire, it's Ripple, Volant Technologies, Fedwire. There's three— there's always one separation, um, between— like, you'll never see PayPal and XRP, it's like a company in between, which is pisses me off sometimes. So here is the platform, it's called CoinMetro. There is a link in the description if you want to support me and use this to get your XRP. But I am pretty sure that this is gonna work in the United States. If we go to their main website, CoinMetro, um, if you look down here, right, if you look down here, Awake pointed this out to me. He says, or he The website says CoinMetro is a supporter of crypto regulation. CoinMetro is a, is a EU-licensed exchange and holds active registrations with regulatory regulators in the USA and Australia. So this should work for you to get Quant easily without having a KuCoin. Um, this should work. So just use the link in my, in, in my description if you want to support me and sign up for an account. Basically the verification, it goes on your phone and then you have to do like take the pictures on your phone of your ID and stuff. Of course it's heavy verification, just driver's license and then a selfie like all exchanges. By the way, that's so that they can knock on your door if you don't pay your taxes when you make generational wealth off this in like 3 years, 1 to 3 years, 1 to 5 years. Um, but go ahead over to this, and as you can see right here, look at the assets they have: ENJ, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum, XRP is right here. Yep, USD. Let's, let's— if you want to spend $200 USD, boom, you get 421 XRP. Also, definitely explore this platform because I saw this: Securities. Europe's first security token investment platform. Hmm, look what they've got here. They've got 3 projects, minimum investment €10. These are some security tokens coming out. I didn't know there was more. Um, definitely check this out though, it's very easy. I got verified like instantly, just you have to do the process and boom, you're verified. Um, so check that out and let me know if it works in the USA. I'm in Canada, so I don't know if if it actually works in the USA, but I think it should. That is all for this video. I hope you enjoyed.
