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 so easily. Now let's hop straight into the video. Make sure you drop a like And look at this, 39K. We are so close to 40,000 subscribers in the Gold Squad. Look at this, drop a subscribe right now, drop a comment and a like, really helps the channel grow and I really appreciate it. Now we have Bitcoin at 41,000 right now. I am really, um, I'm, I'm really impressed with Bitcoin. It's redeeming itself a little bit from its snail title, but I mean, it's still a freaking snail, dude. Come on, I want to see $50K. I'm cheering for Bitcoin. Like, I am a big Bitcoin supporter in terms of wanting to see the price go all the way to the moon, right? Um, but we've got Ethereum $2,500. Binance Coin is chilling down there at $335. XRP is sitting at 75 cents. Which is like, I don't know how I feel about that. That's really good, right? That's really good. But I hope we can get above a dollar and just sit there. Um, I think it's time to close the gates on XRP, man. It's time to close the gates. And by close the gates, I mean like, okay, let's get to $2 and let's just sit there. Or let's be like Cardano and just remain above a dollar and not let any new people in. For a cheap price, you know. So if we look at the top gainers today, and I wanted to show you guys this, this is Crypto Bubbles. A lot of people use this as a visual representation of what's happening. Yeah, what's the biggest bubble, folks? Yeah, what's the biggest bubble? Yeah, it's Quant, bro. It's Quant. If we look here, yes, Quant is the biggest gainer again. We always win, man. $160. do you guys want to see what that is in Canadian dollars? Like, are you kidding me? If I was watching— I watch all the prices in USD. If I was watching, it's almost at $200 in Canadian. Look at that, man. This thing is just killing it. But this will have a cooldown. This will have a correction, right? I don't know how big it's going to be because we're well above $100 now. Like, The days of getting Quant for $28 or $40, when it was being a stablecoin at $40, if you remember that point and we were laughing at it because it was so slow. Look at this. Can we just be a $100 stablecoin now? This is insane, man. So this will have a cooldown. Don't be thinking this is— I mean, it could keep going. I, I can't say anything. I don't even know why this is moving like this. I believe it's a network, uh, effect. Off of all of the promo that it's got with Coinbase listing, Binance listing, and just people seeing the gains and trying to FOMO in, you know. So this thing is killing it, dude. We're in the middle of a crab slash bear market type of just weirdo market right now, and we are still killing it. You could be taking so much profits. I could take so much profits right now, but guess what? I believe that Quant is going to $1,000, and no timeline on that because I'm not an idiot and I'm not going to tell you a stupid time and date that it's going to be there. But let's check out some of the smallest, uh, or the smaller projects that I hold. I was looking at IOTA. It's at $0.888 right now, but I, I'm saying something about IOTA. I would not hesitate to sell all of my IOTA for for ALGO. Okay, and now IOTA actually reached out to work with me, and I still might work with them, but I, I'm just saying, I would have no hesitation, uh, putting some of my IOTA or all of it into ALGO. I'm currently favoring ALGO over IOTA. I always have those as a comparison in my mind. But let's move on to Enjin. Enjin is sitting at $1.39, which is decent, but I got in at 40 cents, and a lot of you did too with me. So we're— I'm still hodling it. XYO, $0.005. This is one of the very smaller, smaller cap projects. I hold 76 million, right? I'm really hoping that goes up. And this is probably the smallest cap project I hold, and it has had a nice pump, nice little moon bag actually, or a moon rocket right here. Definitely look into those. Now moving into the news right now, we got Helium The first Helium halving has arrived. So rest in peace to Helium mining, essentially. This is bad. Uh, I mean, it's, it's a natural thing that happens in their blockchain, right? But this is the halving, dude. I am so disappointed and kind of mad that I didn't get to mine before the halving. Um, so what this does, it's an HIP Improvement— Helium Improvement Protocol. So like ETH, or proposal, sorry. As of today, the target goal for the issuance of Helium has been reduced from 5 million to 2.5 million HNT per month. RIP, man. RIP, RIP, RIP. This is, this is the natural thing that happens with mining anything though, is basically it, it's the most profitable at the start. Moving on. Um, I'm still waiting for my Alien Miner. I think I got scammed. XRP Researcher says we are now getting 6 airdrops for being XRP holders. Life is great. Here are the 6: Flare, dFlare, which is a Flare Finance airdrop, so, uh, Songbird, Elysian, Evers. So I don't know what the hell these 2 are about. I know what these 3 are about, and I know what YFlare is about. So I mean, they're just— they're— what they're doing with XRP is they're setting you up to play in a DeFi ecosystem and giving you all the necessary lending and like yield farming tools, right? All these different coins are going to work in an ecosystem which will be Flare Finance and just the Flare ecosystem and the XRP ecosystem. So it's really cool. 11 South Korean exchanges are closing amid regulator probe. Okay, so the FSC is, um, cracking down on some exchanges today. Upbit and Bitthumb are unaffected due to their offering real name accounts to their customers. So this is interesting. We keep seeing regulations every day. This is the thing, you gotta think about how like You are seeing regulation news every day, so progress is being made on this. Now look at this absolute idiot right here. Jay Clayton, after rejecting Bitcoin ETFs, former SEC Chair Clayton joins fight for approval. So he rejected them and now his little asset management company is trying to get them. So what are you doing, dude? Like I don't understand this man, uh, but that's enough attention for him. He is out of the chairman position at the SEC, so I no longer care about him. PayPal is— well, I still kind of do care what he says because it does kind of matter. Um, PayPal is investing in crypto support in Ireland. They are doing something in Ireland. They have began hiring for crypto-related positions. So do we really want PayPal in this space? Like, isn't— isn't— you could think of PayPal as like a bank, right? So, and I hate PayPal, you guys know that, and I think there's no need for it if we have cryptocurrency. So, but it's— the adoption is cool, right? We like that part of it. Um, PayPal actually made Bitcoin run pretty crazily. But moving on to the second last thing, people selling— this is from Genie. People selling XRP at the beginning of the year because of the SEC lawsuit. People selling XRP to jump on the meme coin craze 3 months ago. People selling XRP because of the XDC hype 1 month ago. Now people are selling XRP to jump on the Quant train. The shakeout is real. Well, I am sorry that we've done so well with Quant, um, because I bet some of the people's plan is to sell their Quant profits and buy XRP. Some people are doing that. I love how they always just quote Mr. Pool. Like, what are you doing, dude? I don't understand this. I'm sorry, like, I love Mr. Pool and I love that whole Riddler thing, but like, dude, come on. Posting vague photos that can be applied to anything under an anonymous account when people like me and others— not just me are out here with our faces on camera talking about real shit and real truth. We don't have to hide behind an anonymous Twitter account. But it's cool, bro. It just pisses me off a little bit. Uh, please remember HBAR at 20. But what, what Mr. Pool has done for the community is good, right? It's a good thing. Um, there's bad aspects too. King Solomon, please remember HBAR at 20 cents in a few years. And complain about wishing you had more. What happens when governing members who own the network begin releasing product? Google, Tata, uh, EFTPOS. Said it before, HBAR is one of the few that can usurp Bitcoin. Usurp Bitcoin, and Bitcoin will be usurped 100%. Usurped 100%. So he believes Bitcoin will be passed. I hope it is. By HBAR, that would be insane. By Quant, that would be insane. But that is all we got for today. Thank you so much for watching. Make sure you drop a like. Also follow on Instagram, Twitter, all of that shit. And goodbye.
