TETHER BANK FRAUD, QUANT, XRP, HBAR, AMP & MORE

Crypto Mason covers market movements: Bitcoin at $38-40k, Ethereum at $2.3k, and AMP surging 63%. The DOJ is investigating Tether executives for bank fraud dating to 2014, which Mason sees as more significant than SEC action. He argues Quant at $80 is undervalued compared to Bitcoin and Ethereum, and defends XRP against centralization criticism.

What is up? I am Crypto Mason and welcome back to the Crypto Mason YouTube channel. Shout out to all of the Gold Squad. We look for gold in every single aspect of our lives and we always find it. Now let's get straight into the video today. We've got one main big piece of news today. Which is coming from Tether, and we will get into it. But make sure before we start, hit the like button, hit the subscribe button, and drop a comment. Um, also, I have just launched a new spiritual channel, so if you're into spirituality, I am reigniting my spiritual channel. You can find the link in the description. I'll leave it in there. So subscribe if you want straight-up spiritual content. Um, so there you go, we're reigniting that. Some old videos will be here, but there will be plenty of new videos in the future. Um, here we go, we, we're at $1.53 trillion, man, $1.53 trillion. Volume is up over $100 billion. Okay, Bitcoin dominance 47.2. So this is very interesting. Yesterday we had this Big, big breakout. We caught one of the most insane moments on livestream on TikTok. I was literally live watching the chart moon from like 35. Where did it go to? It went from like— it went crazy. Look at this, 35 to 38, peaked at like 39, I think. Yeah, 39. But what's surprising me is that we're staying and just going sideways at 38. Um, so maybe we pick— maybe we pick up a little bit, and, and because we tested 40, we— or we rejected 40, so maybe we go up above 40. A lot of people were saying that this doesn't mean anything until we do break 41 or 42, and, uh, yeah, I, I agree with that. I definitely agree with that. I think we're just gonna head back down to and correct to where we were, but we're gonna see what happens, man. $2.3K on Ethereum. Look at this, we've got, we've got some news about Tether right here, but it is green across the board today. Let's check the top gainers. Hold on, let's check the top gainers. AMP is up 63 freaking percent, dude. What is going on with these coins? They're get— they're in rotation. I see some new guys in here though, um, but AMP is insane. I'm a fan of AMP. I'm not ever gonna invest in it. It reminds me of Flare with all the branding and colors, but it's all about collateralization, which is going to be a big thing and already is a big thing. Now let's move into the, the biggest piece of news right here. Tether— you're going to see this everywhere today— Tether executives said to face criminal probe into bank fraud. Bloomberg News, um, the U.S. Department of Justice. So this is more important than the SEC. The Department of Justice is probing whether executives behind the Tether digital token committed bank fraud during the nascent stages of its crypto business. So they're investigating stuff from 2014 when the token launched. Um, they're seeing if they concealed transactions from banks. Um, so this is interesting. We know all the controversy with Tether. Uh, multiple times I have said that Tether is actually the one they're going to really use, but there's arguments for USDC. Honestly, I don't care which one they use, um, but it is gonna matter. It's gonna matter. I don't think they're actually gonna use any, like, but I think maybe many people say that USDC is a chosen one, and it does look like that. But I mean, I have— I really got no problems with Tether. Um, but we're gonna see, like, like, this is insane. First of all, this is insane because I think they really want to wipe out these stablecoins. Because if you imagine a future— I was talking about this before— a future with a private, just private currencies, you can pick who you do your currency with. That's the craziest thing ever. And it can be private, it can be not government-issued, you know. Um, but it has to be backed with some shit. So I think they want to implement their little new slave system with the CBDCs, and they're going after the stablecoins. So that's the big news from today. Also, uh, Tesla and MicroStrategy will report on their crypto assets next week. So are they probing us up for a big, uh, bull run? I mean, if they are Maren Altman is right. She said 28th we could re-enter an actual like very bullish scenario, even though we're, we're like, the market is bullish right now. Everything is up, uh, as, as for the 24-hour, right? But like, we could see something in Tesla's report or MicroStrategy's report that really takes takes this market off, but I'm not sure. Now we've got Slow Hands right here. This is one of the best tweets ever for the people who keep saying that Quant is at $80 is expensive, right? I get this all the time. Dude, it's too expensive, I can't even get it, I can't even buy like 4 of them. Well, guess what? Quant at $80 is essentially like buying Bitcoin at $55. Isn't that insane? That's literally insane. Quant at $80 is like buying ETH at $9. And this is all based on just market cap, right? Um, like, like the Quant market cap applied to XRP would put it at 2 cents. Quant at $80 is BNB at $5.71. Quant at $80 is Cardano at 3. Quant at $80 is DOT at $0.98. This is mind-blowing. This is actually mind-blowing. Insanity. Insanity right here. Um, yeah, so that's like really insane. Now this Stefan is saying, you can sue Ripple but you can't sue Bitcoin. That's why XRP is centralized. If Satoshi Nakamoto didn't hide his identity, he could be sued too. The fact that he is hiding is not necessarily something that promotes trust, in my opinion. Uh, this is exactly how I think about it from like my parents' point of view. Like, someone like my parents are like, why would you use something that like has an anonymous founder, right? That's their mindset. Now, I believe in using something that has an anonymous founder because I understand that, but most— like most of the world will think this is a scam because the founder's anonymous and hiding. Like, do you— you gotta step out of your freaking echo chamber, dude. Step out of the Bitcoin echo chamber and look at this from like a normal person. You don't even know who the founder is. It's some sudden like anonymous entity, mythical creature, like a Jesus character that they've created, and assigned it to make Bitcoin. Like, Bitcoin's reputation is already so split that, I mean, it's on a global scale, it's just gonna be here. It's just gonna be here. That's it. It's just gonna be existing. It is no longer gonna change the world. I don't think it has already changed the world, but it's not going to do anything more revolutionary. Now look at this. I am officially deeming myself a Quant maxi right now. I did this yesterday. 100%, I am a Quant maxi. I'm also an XRP maxi, I would say. I'm also an HBAR maxi, and I'm also just a crypto maxi. So screw all these labels, right? We're here for crypto to succeed. But yeah, look at that, Quant maxi. Mr. Whale says, as an investor, it's, it's essential you put your bias aside, acknowledge reality, and always avoid being willfully ignorant. This is mainly directed to the moon boys who scream FUD anytime they read something that's 100% true but they don't want it to be. So Mr. Whale basically has been, um, he has been, uh, talking down on Tether for a long time. Long time, right? So now him seeing this news, he's on his, he's on his high horse today because I mean, people who see reality in their face want to scream FUD. Like, FUD is not real, or reality is not FUD. If like there's some shit that's like really happening, that's not FUD. I mean, it might be F and it might be like D, but there's no uncertainty in reality. Like, that's just— if there's something that's happening, it's happening. So screw that FUD word. Screw the word shilling too. I hate that. But we need to talk about this girl right here, okay? Look what she did. Look what she did. This is January 22nd, okay? So now everybody who doesn't like astrology and finance, please exit the video, but drop a like before you do it. But for the open-minded people right here who realize that we would be stupid to think that the higher-ups aren't using astrology to read these markets, um, let's get the famous JP Morgan quote before we actually get into this. Here's the famous JP Morgan quote before we get into this: millionaires don't use astrology, billionaires do. Okay, let's go. She says January 22, 2021, Bitcoin May 16, and July 25. Effing take note, take note. You see this? Okay, okay, so Marin wants to make a prediction of two dates at the start of this year. I'm telling you, this is some fortune reading shit, dude. This is some shit. That's at the start of the year calling dates. How is that even possible? Look what happened on May 16th, okay? On May 16th, she called the dump. She called the dump day. Oh shit, I went way further back. Hold on, what am I doing? May 16th. Let's go right here. Boom. Why am I in 2019? I'm tripping. Hold on, let's put the yearly on. Okay, I was tripping right there. Uh, May, right here. So May 16th, May 16th, we're at 43,000, and Marin is closely watching with her little prediction. And guess what? We wake up We wake up and we dip to 42. We wake up the next day, we dip to 37. We wake up a couple days later, we're now at 34. And it just continued down, hitting a low of like 32 right here. So she called the dump date, and watch this, watch this. What happened on July 25th? What happened on July 25th? Literally a moon candle. Look at this. Boom, all the way up to 39. So what does that say? You know what it says. But that's all we got for today. Thank you for watching. Make sure you check all the links in the description. Follow Instagram, Twitter, all of that robotic shit that I have to say when I'm a crypto influencer, whatever that is. But thank you for watching and goodbye.
