This Altcoin Partnered With The Federal Reserve!? HBAR, XRP, QNT & More!

In this YouTube commentary, the host provides a rapid market snapshot of several altcoins, highlighting strong performers like Casper and XDC while noting downtrends in IMX, Conflux, Dydex, and Stacks. He discusses Shiba Inu’s real‑world usage through Binance Pay, enabling purchases at Wendy’s and hundreds of other merchants. A lengthy rant targets SEC Chair Gary Gensler, warning that his stance could reclassify most altcoins as securities, which would force exchanges to delist them and push the market toward security tokens such as INX and tZERO. The host then reviews the leadership of Quant (QNT), emphasizing the influence of its board members and their ties to the World Economic Forum. He argues that Ripple’s XRP could become the "savior" of crypto in the United States if regulatory pressure intensifies. The segment moves to Hedera Hashgraph (HBAR), announcing former OCC chief Brian Brooks joining its board, new accelerator programs, a €100 million fund for fintech startups, and YPay’s stablecoin settlement network on Hedera. The host spotlights Cypherium (CPH) as a high‑risk, low‑cap gem due to its partnership with the Federal Reserve’s FedNow service, cautioning viewers about liquidity and exchange listings. A sponsored plug for Astra Protocol follows, describing its decentralized KYC platform, patented technology, and advisory board featuring former EU trade commissioner and U.S. officials. Finally, the host runs a YouTube giveaway, explains the entry filtering process, and encourages viewers to join the Gold Squad Discord for future contests.

And now we are going flat there. We also have, uh, Ethereum flat at $1,600. Uh, 30 days, over the last 30 days, 3%, right? Nothing really going on there. Uh, the interesting thing about the market right now, we have Casper doing very well and XDC. These are two of the coins that are definitely getting the stamp of approval from me. I've been in XDC since it was like 1 cent right? If you can get in at 1 cent, that's a very good, uh, entry point. And then Casper as well. Uh, if I do be— if I do buy Casper, uh, which I have not bought Casper yet, I will be letting the VIPs in the Discord know my entry point, uh, and maybe even how much Casper I actually buy. But I am yet to go into Casper. I do know the potential. I am waiting for my buy-in opportunity. This is what the bubbles are looking like. We got IMX, Conflux down, uh, Dydex down as well. This is— Dydex is a great, uh, play as well for, you know, a decentralized exchange play. Uh, Stacks also is down, but Casper is leading the charge today along with Threshold as well. Now before we get into the juicy SEC stuff, XRP, Quant, and HBAR, Uh, and then ending off with the two gems for today, let's talk about Shiba Inu. Okay, Shiba Inu, uh, through Binance Pay. So Binance Pay, uh, partnered with CityPay.io, which is a crypto gateway in the state of Georgia, and now Shiba Inu holders can, uh, purchase from Wendy's. Wendy's now accepts Shiba Inu. Now the thing people miss about this, right, obviously they put Wendy's in the headline, uh, but you can actually purchase from 600 other vendors as well with Shiba Inu. Okay, uh, and it's not just Shiba Inu. I believe that this is a lot of other coins that, uh, Binance Pay accepts that can be used. But of course, you know, if they put Shiba in the title, uh, it's going to get a lot of, uh, clicks. So, you know, Shiba Inu, don't sleep on it because that thing has a lot of clout, okay? And it can get itself a lot of places just based off that Twitter following that it has, right? They have a big pull. They bring a lot of volume, a lot of mainstream attention, uh, when it's talked about, it's connected to Elon. Um, so don't sleep on Shiba Inu in that way, right? It'll never be a world-changing coin just because of the name and the story and how it's just, you know, a lackluster it's just not a— it's not a world-changing product, right? It's, it's none of that. However, don't sleep on the gains that you can make from Shiba, right? I have stopped hating on Shiba Inu. I am neutral, right? I'm just gonna make money off of it if the opportunity presents itself. Now let's talk about this absolute idiot, Gary Gensler, okay? He is an absolute idiot. Uh, I used a different term for him, uh, in my video on Twitter and TikTok. If you want to go watch that, it's pretty funny. But this dude is an absolute idiot. He looks like a rat. He looks pretty ugly. His appearance has nothing to do with it, but I just— I'm trying to roast him right now. Uh, nobody likes him. And this dude has just said crypto exchanges may not be qualified custodians. Now we know that in yesterday's video Uh, or sorry, was that yesterday? I'm, I'm losing track of time. This was February 28th. Oh no, a few days ago, uh, we covered Gary Gensler talking about, uh, how everything except Bitcoin is a security, right? Everything except Bitcoin. Now he's saying that crypto exchanges may not be qualified custodians. Okay, so this— what this means, uh, essentially, in my, in my opinion, what's gonna happen, or what could happen is if every altcoin is a security, then all of the exchanges are illegally selling securities, right? All of those have to be delisted, right? So what would happen? What would actually happen if that happened in the US? Basically, no altcoin would be available in the US to buy unless you're an accredited investor. I believe that they would all morph into security tokens and be deemed security tokens. And then the security token exchanges that are registered to sell securities would blow the hell up, right? And that's why— that's where we are watching INX, tZERO. You know, I feel like I'm still alone on this. I'm one of the only channels that talks about security tokens heavily, right? We've visited this website a million times, stomarket.com, uh, right here. This is the CoinMarketCap of security tokens. I've been shilling this for a long time. None of this is sponsored at all, uh, I just, you know, I'm trying to put you guys on some big alpha right here. And I do see some new players coming up on the security token— Boss Info AG, Farmy AG, Siri Hub, Vid by AG. Like, there's a lot of these different security tokens coming up, right? We still have Enegra Group holding 15 $16 billion of the market cap, which is very weird, right? Um, but you know, security— this is, this is the road it could take in the USA. Uh, you know, crypto will exist everywhere else overseas and in the UK and stuff, but you know, Gary is an agent of the Matrix. Uh, I don't like those terms obviously, but you know, it's super accurate to describe Gary. He is strictly there to just kill crypto in the US and make us lose. And I say us like I'm from the US, uh, but make— because US and Canada are pretty connected, right? Gary's decisions could definitely affect, um, the Canadian securities regulations for crypto. So he is there to make us lose the crypto space race, which is absolutely horrible. Let's move into Quant right here. Uh, take a look at the Quant board of directors. Okay, this is from Quantasaurus. Guy Dietrich and Neil Smith. Now, who are these people? Okay, excuse me, Quant. Um, so Smith transformed Comcast into the top cable company, bringing in billions by the time he left. He did the same for— excuse me— Vodafone afterwards. Goes without saying that Guy Dietrich wouldn't touch a project unless it was Effing goated, both of them. They are also turning Quant into gold. Now these guys are big players, right? Schmidt transformed Comcast, um, and Guy Dietrich, uh, would not touch a project unless it has something going for it. This guy says World Economic Forum puppets. Yes, yes, that furthers my investment if these dudes are being used as puppets by the World Economic Forum. All that says to me is it's going to be successful on the world stage. That— because who controls the world stage? It's those idiots at the World Economic Forum. So I do like to see World, uh, World Economic Forum puppets, as you call them, uh, in my projects that I'm invested in, because it's gonna be successful on the world stage. Then we can make the money off of them and use it for good, like I preach all the time. Moving into the XRP talk, uh, Library had this amazing tweet right here. They said, by far the best chance for cryptocurrency in the United States is Ripple. There are other crypto players in the US that could be playing offense but aren't. This means it's basically all on XRP to save us all. XRP could easily be the savior for crypto in the US. So we talk about Gary like trying to ruin the US, uh, you know, the adoption and innovation of crypto in the US. Ripple is positioned to be the savior of that entire story if it happens, right? Because if it— if Gary goes through with his plan to make everything else a security, uh, XRP will turn into a security token most likely, and that would mean that they lost their case most likely. Okay, moving forward, uh, let's get into some of the big HBAR news that has came out. This is the biggest one we have. Brian Brooks has joined the board. Now Brian Brooks is an absolute legend. Uh, this is just an inspirational bio right here. Look at all of those @s of big companies, right? He's the CEO of BitFury Group. He's on the board of Protego Trust and Spring Labs. He's an advisor for Imagine Curve and Solidus Labs. And he is a former, uh, he's formerly at the US OCC, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, uh, and he was formerly the CLO at Coinbase. He's been at Harvard. Like, the dude is stacked. Uh, if you remember when all the crypto CEOs were sat in front of Congress and we had the, the lady from Stellar, uh, the Stellar CEO, I believe we had a few other ones. Brian Brooks was there and he absolutely murdered his part. He killed it on his, his part, uh, speaking to Congress. Furthermore, we got, uh, we got Lumos Labs HQ is launching its second hatch, uh, Web3 accelerator for Indian Web3 developers looking to build in the Hedera ecosystem. So some more, uh, more development, uh, accelerators for Hedera right there. And then we also have the Hashgraph Association, uh, committing €100 million to support fintech and blockchain startups. Like, this is just so bullish, right? Like, just— we know HBAR has the big bag. Like, Hedera, they got a lot of money behind them and they can dish it out like this. €100 million to support some startups. That is amazing. I also wanted to mention YPay is launching a YCoin settlement network on Hedera to help bank the bankless in Africa and the Caribbean. Extremely— they have 50,000 websites and point-of-sale terminals across the Caribbean, or Caribbean, who knows how we say that word really. Uh, Pirates of the Caribbean, Caribbean, I don't know. Uh, but Y Coin, uh, is actually a stablecoin, so we can't invest in it and see a return on our investment. But, uh, it is a stablecoin, and YPay is absolutely massive, okay? They— and they are— they have chosen Hedera, uh, for this. Now let's get into the gems for today. The first one is Cypherium, okay? Now I remember posting this posting about Cypherium way, way back. Okay, I'm actually offering a reward of $150 of XRP to the first person, uh, to find my first ever mention of Cypherium CPH on my YouTube channel. Uh, so look at this. Oh, this dude found it. I think this dude found it. Uh, so it was March 9th of 2022. Okay, which is actually my beautiful girlfriend's birthday, which is crazy. So maybe that's a, um, a sign that we should, we should get into CPH. Uh, but I'm gonna go look. I think the video has been deleted though, uh, because that tweet is still there. Interesting. I deleted that video, uh, because it wasn't really confirmed that they were a FedNow provider, but it has now like 100% been confirmed to me that, uh, Cypherium is providing— is a service provider for FedNow. Okay, let's do a Google search for FedNow. I'll show you what this thing is. Look at FedNow. Where's the Wikipedia for FedNow? Um, hold on. FedNow Wiki. Let's see. Are— do they have a wiki? Yeah. This FedNow is a service developed by the Federal Reserve. It will enable individuals and businesses to send instant payments. Banks will be able to build products on top of the new FedNow platform. FedNow is scheduled to launch between May and July 2023. So dude, this is their, uh, attack towards Ripple, right? This is their like rebuttal to Ripple. FedNow's transaction costs will be 5 times cheaper than the existing solutions that cost merchants an average of 23 cents per transaction. Instant payments address most of the problems that a CBDC would solve. However, FedNow is not a CBDC because it is not a liability of the federal government. Interesting stuff right here, okay? And look how small this Wikipedia page is, but there's a ton of, uh, quotes— or sorry, references right there. Now, Cypherium actually provides service to them. Okay, Cypherium, uh, plans to offer instant payment services to organizations that are adopting the FedNow service. They are a blockchain platform for enabling faster payments. So this is absolutely a gem in my opinion, and once the utility maxis catch on to this, it probably could explode. Uh, now big warning, big warning on this one, it is a very small cap, right? $25 million only. Only $180K of volume in 24 hours. Very low volume. Now the reason for this is because it is on some garbage exchanges right here, MEXC and XT.com. Two exchanges, uh, and don't buy it on XT.com, buy it on MEXC because that has all the volume. Now here's the thing, and, and don't buy it if you don't want to. I don't care if you buy it, right? I hold some Cypherium now. I don't give a flying shit if you buy Cypherium, okay? I'm just putting you on to some alpha right here, uh, of a FedNow provider who has a blockchain, uh, going, and they have a token attached to the blockchain. And we know what that means— that we can enter the token and possibly the token value might go up and we can sell some. That's all we're talking about here. Um, you know, but this— go and check this one out, uh, do your own research. It's very risky in my opinion, uh, because it is just so small. Now, a couple things it has going for it is obviously the FedNow partnership right there, and the fact that there is only 2 exchanges that have it. If it gets more exchange listings, that volume could very much pick up. Let's see what happens with it. Uh, the next one is actually sponsored by Astra Protocol. I am partnered up, uh, Crypto Mason x Astra Protocol. We are partnered up, uh, on this channel. But Astra Protocol is a very, very dope project. Uh, we talk so much about the regulations with Gary Gensler and stuff. This is a regulatory-focused coin, okay? Uh, they are the first decentralized KYC platform for Web3 that employs financial regulatory standards from over 150 plus countries and brings 300 sanctions and watchlists, watchlists to the crypto industry. Okay, now you can go read through these threads, uh, and check out their website right here. They have patented tech. Now one of the reasons Hedera and HBAR stood out to me was because of the patents. Okay, they have patented their decentralized, uh, what do they call it, their decentralized KYC platform. They've patented the way they do it. Uh, and if we go over here, right, they had a massive announcement recently. The former Samsung corporate president and chief strategy officer, Young Sun, joined them, uh, as an advisor. Now, you know, this— just look at their advisory board. So let's head over to here, right? We go to their advisors. Who do they have right here? Phil Hogan. Phil Hogan is is one of their advisors. Now, who is this? He's the former EU Commissioner for Trade. That is massive, okay? He was entrusted, uh, by the president of the EU with the sensitive job of resolving the trade war between the EU and the USA with Donald Trump. He was also responsible for negotiating a critical investment deal with China and securing landmark trade deals with Japan. Like, the dude is just stacked, right? And then who else do we have? Mick Mulvaney right here. Uh, so, you know, this guy was in Washington, D.C. area. Let me see where he was. After joining the Trump administration, Mr. Mulvaney served in several roles, including chief of staff and the director of the Office of Management and Budget. Uh, so this dude was right there, uh, in the Trump administration as well. And then they've got Young Sun right there. And if you keep going down, these dudes are stacked on their advisory board. Their whole team is doxxed, obviously. Uh, very, very dope platform right there. So go check out Astra. Once again, thank you, Astra, uh, for partnering with the channel.
