⚠️ WE MUST PAY ATTENTION... ALGO PUMP, XDC PUMP, NEAR, XRP, HBAR, QUANT, BITCOIN UPDATE & 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 we have another daily market update. Look at the biggest bubble on your screen. That is Algorand, $1.76 right now. I've been telling you that I bought at $1.30. We've also got HBAR up, XDC. Altcoins are looking a little bit, uh, you know, red and green today. It's a mixed bag. QNT still at $173. If that goes down to $150, that is the biggest buying level ever for me. I most likely will buy more at $150. But let's check out Bitcoin, $47,000. By the end of this video, we're also gonna look at an NFT project. We're gonna look at a bunch of stuff. Like, there's a bunch of good stuff today. So this is what the market's looking like. $86 million 24-hour volume. That's actually small. I kind of use, uh, $100 billion, uh, $100 billion as the, uh, like benchmark. But Algorand is one of the top gainers. XDC is also one of the top gainers. We got Gnosis. I really do love that name, Gnosis. Um, but let's see this Bitcoin chart. So look what happened, just look what happened. Okay, this is the— let's go to the 12-hour. No, 6-hour is better. So I've been showing that we're just in this range, right? Look what I said. This is on December 28th, so, uh, 2 days ago. Watch what I say right here. I'm guessing we might come down and, uh, go and test this support here, and hopefully that holds. If it doesn't hold is we're probably going to test this support. You see the line I drew? Well, guess what? That is exactly what played out. And then yesterday, look what I said here, $47,654. You guys know in yesterday's video I said that I think we are, we are actually going to go down and test this support right here. Okay, now if we go on normal candles, okay, by the way, listen to this, to cover, uh, in terms of altcoins today, so we're going to get into that But if we go to the daily chart, we see that the wicks have touched here, right? The candle closes have not touched on this $45,800 line. Um, I do believe that that could happen. Okay, okay, so the wicks have touched. Guess what? Guess what? Wicks touching here, wicks touching here, wicks touching here, wicks touching here. Another wick just touched there. Okay, on the 12-hour, you can see the wicks touched, and now we're creating, uh, we're actually headed back up a little bit. Like, we printed a pretty decent candle right there. So we're still in this range. That's the thing, we're still in this range. People freaked out on this drop, but you should not freak out on that drop because what's going to happen is probably this, okay, then maybe this, and then maybe this, and and then maybe we break this for real. Who knows? I might just keep that there to see if that plays out. But that is what we're looking like on our money flow. Uh, we have MATIC, ETH, ROSE, and Shiba Inu today. We've also got, um, like, that's what people are buying today: MATIC, ETH, ROSE, SHIB. You know, Curve is on there. One of the crazy things I saw was, uh, money going into Monero. So somebody's trying to hide some funds or something. Um, but algo is also a big, uh, a big one. Okay, they know what's up with that algo. So with XRP, we're also in this sort of range right here. You know, we've kind of touched all this, we've touched this, this. So just everything is kind of just slow right now. Um, XRP, not too much crazy news. Make sure you follow me on Twitter, by the way, right there. Let's keep going. We have, um, David Schwartz saying that he actually did— he did work on Bitcoin. Okay, Crypto Yoda says, yes or no only, did you have anything to do with the Bitcoin code? He says, I did. He did some work on optimizing the code for mining pool applications in 2011. David Schwartz is sus, bro. He is sus. He definitely I think he knows who Satoshi is. I don't know, maybe. Now, Mexico plans to issue a CBDC by 2024, the government confirms. Guess what? The government for real tweeted. We got governments tweeting, man. What is this world? Government tweeted that they're going to be looking into its own digital currency, considering these new technologies and the next generation payment infrastructure. So they think it's important, right? They say, um, what did they say right here? Uh, they're analyzing the launch of a CBDC. They said by 2024. So we know our little, our little website right here, CBDC Tracker. CBDC Tracker. Okay, and you can hover over any of these, like Guatemala's is in research, right? Peru is in research for their CBDC. So I'm assuming they're going to add Mexico on here, um, like update their thing, you know. And we can, we can look at all the news right here. Very cool. We can see these CBDCs. This is what they're sneaking by us as we're all focused on meme coins and different weird stuff. Okay, cbdctracker.com. John says the Near bull case. So what a bull case is is basically you lay out a bunch of points on why something is bullish. What bullish means is the price is going up. The Near bull case: sharded proof-of-stake chain with infinite scalability. This is standard. I'm not investing in anything other than a sharded proof-of-stake chain with infinite scalability, or Hashgraph, you know. It has to have this infinite scalability. They have a galaxy brain team, you Ethereum virtual machine compatible, gasless Ethereum, bunch of tech stuff. Then he says parachains with Octopus Network. I did not know that about Near. One of the best dev experiences and an $800 or $800 million. Imagine they had an $800 development fund. Wow. $800 million ecosystem fund. So I want to make it clear right now, I'm bullish on Near. I'm bullish on Near. Okay, I'm bullish on everything that is like the distraction for Hashgraph. Just facts. Near is just a distraction for Hashgraph in my opinion, but I'm bullish on all of them because they will let those go to the moon before they let Hashgraph. Hashgraph will have its time though. Now Victoria XDC right here is pointing out Bybit. Bybit is, um, is, is is adding XDC. So who's going to go and 100x leverage, buy, uh, 100x leverage XDC? I don't know, but they're getting added right there. That's cool. We have Ron Hammond with a nice little thread right here, uh, a nice little thread about, um, regulations. So this guy was the guy who announced the Capitol Hill meetings with the CEOs of crypto, you know, and, uh, basically what he's saying is that this is the sexy issue for financial services policy, and everyone wants a piece of it, especially Congress. So this is a long thread, but to summarize this, he basically summarizes it here. There are more to end the tent of crypto supporters, both R and D, right? Republican, Democratic, I think, is larger than ever before. 2022 will be busy with substantive bills and hearings. Okay, so 2022 is the year that this thing is about to get regulated for real. Like, there's gonna be progress with Congress, okay? Progress out of Congress. Um, very crazy right there. We also have Quit right here saying that gas is safe to claim and trade. You guys know I, I put this, um, airdrop. You can basically claim, uh, free money if you spent a lot of gas on OpenSea. Okay, so I only spent a little bit of gas. I think it evened out to like $10 that I claimed. Uh, the gas was way too much, but the point of this is he is showing that the teams are getting paid so much money. So right now, airdrops like this are trending. So free airdrops to reward you for nothing is trending right now, but he's pointing out that the founders of this, they work for like 12 hours and they get paid millions off doing something like this and making it go viral. Nothing wrong with that, right? But just be careful, um, and watch out for the airdrops. I claimed the SOS airdrop, it was great. So if there's any more, I'll be letting you guys know. Now I want to show you something right here. This is, uh, Dragon Glass, right, which is the Hedera Hashgraph like Etherscan, kind of. If we go to node 5, right, look at all these nodes over the last year. They've done like millions of transactions here, and we can check who these nodes actually are. So for example, node 8 is Boeing. So if we go to node 8, I just wanted to show you this. Node 8 has done 108 million transactions, okay, on Hedera. Look at this. Who's node 8? That's Boeing. So this is very cool. I just noticed how you can actually line this up. Like, if we go to, let's see, node 13, 152 million transactions. Uh, node, node 13 is, uh, UCL. So you can just see, that's very cool right there. We've also got this exclusive teaser of the upcoming film Ripple vs. SEC Saga. So this is 42 seconds, we're gonna watch it. It's gonna make you feel something. It's very epic. Watch this, watch this. This is the biggest case we've ever seen in crypto. The SEC suing Ripple hit XRP holders like a train. That was Thinking Crypto and BitBoy Crypto right there. He was supposed to be my retirement. Look at this. This is just showing escalation, bro.

All cryptocurrency holders should be concerned.

There's James Rule XRP. Shout out to James Rule XRP. Somehow still doesn't follow me on Twitter. I don't know why, but I'm certain someone's got to say this point. There's John Deaton. Watch this epic moment right here.

I think I'm gonna sue the SEC, bro.

Like, that is just showing how how escalated this thing is getting. It looks, it looks like a movie straight up. I can't wait to watch that and see what they put in there. Now, Shauna also points out this for all of the quant holders. Here's a detailed chart of where you stand in the rankings. So everyone right now, take a look at this. And if you have, uh, 25 quant, you're a lobster. If you have, uh, 300 quant, you're an octopus. Okay, so where are you at? Are you a, are you a shark? Do you have 2,000 quant? Right? This is the current ranking, the updated ranking. Very cool right there. We've also got this important clip right here. I'm gonna play this. This is— I probably put this in the title— Ethereum might have been a trial. So watch this. This is Joseph Lubin talking right here, 6 years ago.

Uh, it was our goal to basically build a demo system, get 1.0 out the door.

A demo system?

Um, 1.0 is going to be totally scalable for a year or two years. It'll be just fine. It's a system that enables us to learn how to, to build this, these crazy new things called decentralized applications to, to deal with the user. See, that was at like the start of DApps, 15-second block times to learn how to build a decentralized business to some sort of figure out what those business models might be. Um, so 1.0 is plenty for a while, and ideally we get wildly successful and there becomes a real burgeoning need for 2.0 scalability. Um, but really, as 1.0 gets more and more used, more and more popular, uh, it's not like transactions are gonna fall to the floor. Um, it's a market basically. So if, uh, if you really need your transaction to be processed, um, then you simply raise the fee that you pay to miners.

So, um, very weird to me. This is from Digital Asset Investor. Um, Ethereum 1.0 was a demo system. A demo system. Okay, interesting AF. Okay, so Psychedelics Anonymous, um, this project— I'm not sponsored by this— I think that this project's gonna do extremely well. Bad part is the floor price is 1.347. Now let me just see something. I want to tell you what price I bought at. Um, I bought at, um, what did I buy this one at? Uh, $1.76. Did I really pay that? $1.76? I don't even remember. Uh, okay, but yes, this project, I swear, if you can get in on a dip on that floor price— I don't know, no financial advice. I like this project a lot. I've been getting, uh, yeah, it's great. Now that is all we've got for the daily market update. I appreciate every single one of you for watching until the end. Like, if you're still watching That means you have a drive to know everything that's going on, because you guys know I only pick the important things. I pick the puzzle pieces. And man, if you've been watching for a long time, you know that the puzzle pieces are all there. Make sure you follow Twitter, Instagram, join the Telegram group, and goodbye.
