This Is Crazy! Is Binance Insolvent? SBF Arrested & More...

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 you can see we are in a different setup. I am in Orlando, Florida. I will show you guys the view for a second, the little vlog clip at the start of this video. We've got a lot to talk about, but we are here in Orlando, Florida for Disney World actually, uh, and we're at the Waldorf Astoria, I think it's called. But we have a lot to talk about in the crypto markets. Obviously I'm on the ghetto, the ghetto setup here, uh, with the laptop. But let's get into it. As you can see, I mean, the market is pretty mixed right now. We got Ton Coin up 35%. Crazy stuff happening. We are going to talk about it. First thing though, Day 1 of 12 Days of Giveaways is starting today. 250 XRP. All you have to do— let me show you very carefully— we have to go and like and retweet this tweet on the Gold Squad Twitter. You must be following Meg, myself, and the Gold Squad Twitter. And then you have to join the Gold Squad Discord, which is right here, and you have to go to the 12 Days of Giving section and click on Participate. There's only 251 people entered right now. Some people are having problems with the Participate button. If you're having problems and it's not working, just keep trying. Close your Discord app, restart it, do basic troubleshooting, right? Kill the app on your phone and redo it. But day 1, the prizes will get even better as we go, and all winners are randomly drawn on Christmas. Okay, moving into the market here, let's see. $17,800 Bitcoin. Man, I don't care about Bitcoin's price right now. I don't care even about Ethereum's price right now. It's all about the news. It's about keeping your assets safe right now. That is the big lesson that people are learning. Keep your assets safe. We can see Quant is kind of distinguished here, up 5% over 7 days. I'm still holding a lot of these bags, dude. I've took— I took adequate profits throughout the year last year. XDC is the biggest gainer today, actually, uh, up— let's see, up 7, I believe, or no, it's one of the biggest gainers, 7%, 13% on the 7 daily. Still holding some XDC. Shout out to the XDC people. It made its way back into the top 100. As for the news, let's get into the news. If you don't know about CryptoPanic.com, that is where most of the news is aggregated. However, we did have the video come out of Sam Bankman-Fried leaving court in handcuffs surrounded by police. SBF has officially been arrested. Now, this is very, very crazy. Why not Do Kwon? Where's Do Kwon? Is he in Serbia? Where is he? We need him arrested as well. But SBF leaving court like that. Here are his charges. We have conspiracy to commit wire fraud on customers, wire fraud on customers, conspiracy, conspiracy to commit wire fraud on lenders, wire fraud on lenders, commodities fraud, securities fraud, a laundry list. He could get life in prison for this. Very, very crazy stuff right there. We also did have Kevin O'Leary. Testify at the Senate hearing and said Binance intentionally put FTX out of business. Who knows if this is the case, but CZ and Binance did contribute a little bit or a lot of it actually to the fall of FTX, but that was probably going to happen anyways. Now Binance is having their own FUD happening right now. I believe that a lot of the media is still paid off by Sam Bankman-Fried. and they have started the rumor mill and the FUD, uh, and the FUD mill here. Okay, but Binance CEO, they had their USDC withdrawals closed and suspended for a bit, but they did open them back up. And CZ has said that, uh, the company will survive any crypto winter. Okay, withdrawals back online, and, uh, You know, this is crazy. This is crazy. Also, due to FTX, uh, the whole situation with FTX, Canada has banned crypto leverage trading. It is banned, uh, right there. Very crazy. Uh, some of the Canadian exchanges are ahead of the US exchanges, and I'm wondering if we're going to see some of this stuff— excuse me— start to happen in the US. Now, also, we had 8 influencers charged by the SEC in a $100 million stock manipulation scheme promoted on Discord and Twitter. This is insane right here. As you can see, this guy's salty about me using Watcher Guru tweets. Imbeciles, right? This is all just breaking news. Uh, and but here is the, um, the thing. We've got 8 stock influencers. So these are people who have stocks, and I can already see some of you haters, miserable insecure haters in the comments, some of you, just the haters, uh, saying that, oh, you should be on this list, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. I have not scammed anybody. Zero. I have— I'm not a scammer. I do not dump. And if I'm gonna dump my coins or sell my coins, I let you guys know. And real ones know that we've— you know, I've said I'm selling coins before, um, on some of these. But basically, these dudes were intentionally picking a stock, pumping it on their social medias, and then dumping and telling their audience that they were continuing to buy. As you can see, these people driving Lambos and stuff. you know, just very bad stuff. So they have been charged on that. That's pretty crazy. Brazil is launching a central bank digital currency in 2024. CBDC takeover continues. As for the market, man, there's really, really nothing to say. Uh, you could— you can be tracking Bitcoin's price and doing technical analysis on Bitcoin. Excuse me, my— I'm getting a tickling my throat here. Let me get some water. You could be doing TA on Bitcoin and all this stuff, but I just think right now you just need to have your assets protected. Try and make more fiat money. You gotta, you know, start some kind of business in crypto. If you do want help with that, we're going to have resources coming to the Gold Squad Discord to help you, um, to help you start your Web3 business and actually get off the ground and start to bring in some extra fiat money for yourself. But as for some of the news, like we've got, you know, the Fed pivoting rates, uh, 50 basis points, Gemini leaked emails, just the basic stuff. I'm still watching out. Definitely watch out for one more big thing. I do not think it's going to be Binance. right? Excuse me. It might be USDD. USDD has been slipping from the peg, as you guys know. You know, if we, if we search my name on Twitter with USDD, I did, uh, tell you back in June that USDD is probably gonna die the same death that Luna and UST died. Anything to do with Tron is pretty trash in my opinion. So that is, uh, USDD slipping off its peg there. But as for the market, man, it's just a lot of negativity. Just stay positive, you know. This shit will— excuse me— this, this will get better. Uh, go outside, touch some grass, you know. That's— start a business or something while you wait. But get your crypto off any exchanges. I don't even care if it's Binance or Coinbase even. Get your money off the exchanges and just chill for right now. But I promise you, in the long term, this will get better. We will make money again. There's really nothing to say in the market at this point. The content on YouTube has slowed up because there's really just nothing to talk about. I'm— I've been traveling a lot. A lot of people are talking about recession. We're not in a recession. We are in a recession. Uh, but stay tuned on other platforms. Stay tuned on Twitter. Twitter is where it's at. If you want the breaking news, you've got to be on Twitter, uh, going crazy on Twitter and Telegram as well. We're doing 12 Days of Giveaways, so make sure you're participating in those all the way up to Christmas. But that is all we've got. Very short video today. I love every single one of you, um, and goodbye.
