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 are back for another market update. This one's going to be a little bit different. I did put out a tweet asking you guys what you want to see inside of a daily market update. We're going to be answering some of your guys' questions. So if you stay till the end, it might get juicy because there's some juicy questions over there. So let's get into it. First thing is first, Bitcoin is pumping up. Okay. Yesterday my video was called Bull Market Returning Soon. Quant to $1,000. We talked about if Quant can get to $1,000. Uh, also we basically said that the bull market could be returning. There's lots of macro charts that show that the Bitcoin bull market could be returning. I showed you right here how we're down, how we went down 77% since the top, uh, and it's been over a year already. We're a year deep into essentially the bear market, right? Since the top it's been 477 days, and now we are seeing Bitcoin get some legs today Uh, this is the daily chart right here. Let's zoom out to the 4-hour and you can really see that we have began pumping up here. And you know, January's been looking good. Like, seriously, January has been looking pretty dang good for Bitcoin, you know, since the start of January. Let's look, right, January 1st right there. Take the ruler, we're up 42% since the start of January on Bitcoin. I love to see it. Uh, and you guys know that when I— when we hit this $25K, dude, if you're holding Bitcoin, possibly just shave off 10% or 5%, uh, because I think we could come back, uh, crashing down. I'm not fully convinced that we're out of the bear market yet. I think there could be, you know, some months left, uh, but those months might be just, you know, climbing this way. We climb up a bit, come back down. It might be this sideways but slow grind upwards. Uh, that's what, what I'm thinking now. Now, little announcement about the Gold Squad merch store. Uh, we did drop the winged logo hat. Okay, so nice embroidery, the winged Gold Squad logo hat. I love this logo, I love this hat, uh, in the dad hat and the trucker hat. And then we also dropped the Gold Squad stickers. These were things that you guys were asking for in the Discord, so we made it happen. Uh, go check it out, goldsquad.store. Okay, moving on. I made a $1,000 bet about XRP, okay? I tweeted out the cold hard truth about XRP is that it will end up at $10 plus, and so many people will have missed the bus. And Blockchain Boy, our favorite XRP hater here, he always— he's always hating on XRP, says, I'll make a bet with you that it never gets above $10. I said, if XRP does not hit $10 by July of 2025, I'll give you $1,000. You did say never gets above. So he literally thinks it will never, ever, ever in the history of time get above $10, which we know it probably— it will. It will get above $10. If it does get above, you give me $1K. Okay. He said we have a deal and he wants it as an oversized novelty check. And if you don't know what that is, if we type in novelty check, you know, it's going to be pretty funny when I hand— or when he hands me a novelty check that's, that's massive, saying, you know, you won. So there's a bet on the line. We do have this tweet from Miles Deutscher right here. 2023 is shaping up to be a huge year for airdrops. Okay, one of the ways in crypto that you can make free money for nothing is through airdrops. In recent years, people have made up to $50,000 free dollars on Optimism, $30,000 on ENS, $18,000 on Uni, and $6K on Aptos. Okay, and he lists 20 upcoming airdrops that he has his, um, his eye on And I actually don't see the list here, uh, which is, you know— oh, there it is. Okay, so it's under, uh, this tweet. The thread's actually under this tweet. That's— that wasn't a good way to do that by him, but he did it. I'm going to leave this link in the description. You guys can go and check these out. You know, all you have to do in crypto to participate in airdrops is use the protocol a lot. So people who used Optimism a lot, they could earn up to $50K. Right? Somebody got $50K, uh, and then other people got $3K and $5K and $500, you know, different, uh, amounts according to how much they used it. So if you're using ENS a lot, man, you could make up to $30K. But those airdrops are done, and he's focused on these new ones. Uh, and one of the ones that stands out to me is the ZK Sync for sure. The ZK Sync right there. Starknet as well, I've seen a little bit about. Celestia. So he goes through 20 of them that you can keep your eye on. Moving on, my beautiful girlfriend and fellow content creator right here made— Meg BZK made a Gala video that has sort of blown up right here. As we can see, the tweet is getting a lot of attention right here. And this is literally a 22-minute video and it's a deep dive into Gala's strategy for 2023. Now, after watching this and hearing her go through this and just looking at the Gala document that she covers in this, which is their 2023 strategy document, I'm also convinced that Gala can 50x in the long term easily. One of the most— two of the best things that you'll see in this video, she'll talk about them if you go watch it, is that Gala is burning 500 million Gala per quarter, right? So that's 2 billion Gala per year will get burnt. Uh, and then also they're pivoting their games to mobile games. Now we know how crazy mobile games can get. You can do like— you can just run the numbers on Pokémon Go, on some of the biggest games of all time, Clash of Clans, uh, you know, Clash Royale, uh, all of those mega, mega games. I think it's just such a good idea. All the kids have iPads, they have their little iPod or phones, uh, that they can play these games on. And I mean, if you can get a— if you can hit a game like Flappy Bird or Wordle that just blows up and goes viral, that will absolutely skyrocket Gala. Uh, and Megan also goes into how, you know, they have Gala Music now and they have Gala Film. So Gala is a very strong project in my opinion. Now let's get into some NFT stuff here. Why does Yuga Labs do so much shady bullshit. The creators of Bored Ape Yacht Club do so much shady stuff. Why? Right. So they've released this new game called Dookey Dash where you have to pay $4,000 to buy a sewer pass to even play the game. So it's $4,000 basically to play this game. And this guy right here is pointing out that this is just a game from 2008 that they have reskinned. So as you can see, this is the, the game that they've reskinned, and the game is actually called Armor— or sorry, The Missile Game 3D. And you can go play this for free, right? It has 240,000 plays on armor games.com, and they've simply just reskinned this game. And now, you know, you have people paying crazy amounts of money for that. So if we type in Dookie Dash right here, you will see tons of people playing this, right? This guy got first, uh, but check out the actually— the actual gameplay. This is the gameplay, right? So as you can see, they're like flying through this tube, and obviously, you know, it's just a simple reskin of this game. Why do they do this? In my opinion, it kind of shows that they don't actually have, uh, extremely creative people behind their company, and, you know, they have to go and find inspiration and reskin in games and stuff like that. You know, the other side is basically a Fortnite clone at this time. But where's the uniqueness, right? You have millions and millions of dollars. You're the biggest NFT project on the globe. Why can't you even create a unique concept for a game? It's crazy to me, right? So very interesting there. Moving on. This is crazy. Okay, so who is Satoshi Nakamoto? Who is the creator of Bitcoin? A lot of people think it is the creator of Chainlink. They think that the creator of Chainlink, Sergey Nazarov— Sergey Nazarov is Satoshi Nakamoto. Now, he went on Lex Friedman. So this is the creator of Chainlink on Lex Friedman. And apparently he's doing Morse code with his finger to say that he is Satoshi Nakamoto. Check this out. 23-second clip. Let me ask you this question.
Who is Satoshi Nakamoto.
There's quite a few people who suggest that person is you.
So is it you?
No. Who do you think it could be? So if you didn't catch it, he asked him, who is Satoshi Nakamoto? And watch Sergey Nazarov's finger. He does Morse code. Okay. According to the Chainlink people. And you can see the Morse code up here. So 1, 2, 3 taps for S. And then wait a little bit.
Is it you?
No. And two taps for N, right? So SN equals SN. Satoshi Nakamoto equals Sergey Nazarov. SN equals— that's it, you get it. So these Chainlink people are arguably as crazy in some respects as the XRP people. This is wild speculation, uh, but I love to see it, of course. Moving on. We do have some decoding for you guys right here. Uh, this is, um, a video of the Ripple logo getting explained right here, how they made it. So check this out right here. We're going to get into some decoding of the Ripple logo.
The golden ratio, all right, so it's symbolized by phi. This, uh, Greek symbol. But the golden ratio is— it's, it's a math, uh, a plus b over b. When it equals a over b is What was about 1.61809897. If you pull out those, those geometric differences in those circles, you end up with these Fibonacci sequences organized a different way. You start to see network structure where you've got hubs and you've got less important hubs in a network. And so out of that, we create a logo called the Triskelion, which is our Ripple logo. But it really does come out of that mathematic principle of the golden ratio.
So literally, she— he tells her that, you know, they base their lion— or sorry, their logo— on the Triskelion, or the Trisklion as I like to call it, which is this Greek symbol, ancient symbol, okay, that was used in the Bronze Age with continuation into the Iron Age. Um, and this was actually on coins, right? As you can see, like, that's the Ripple logo. Come on, right? This logo, this Triskelion symbolism was on coins back in the Bronze Age and the Iron Age. So extremely interesting. This symbol's everywhere, right? There's flags. The flag of the Isle of Man has it, right? This flag of Sicily has it. Um, flag of Afrikaner, emblem of Afrikaner. These symbols are built into that Ripple logo. And that's why I love the Ripple logo so much, is because they even show in this video that they were aware of that. They picked that on purpose. I love it. So now we will get into some of the Q&A that was done with that tweet, um, and then if you stay till the end, we're going to talk about a more, uh, society issue is what I'll say, okay, that I've been noticing. So I asked all of you guys, what do you all want to see me cover or talk about in my video today? Drop some suggestions and don't forget to click click like. Whenever you ask for like people to reply on Twitter, they always forget to click like. Like there will be 70 replies but 20 likes. Like, what are you doing? You have time to type a comment but not like? Uh, so I had to say that. Uh, and the first one I'll actually go through is, we would like to hear about your new eagles. This is from Super Eagle Coin, uh, who is actually sponsoring a short portion of this video right here. So thank you to them for sponsoring. They have also sent me 3 eagles. These are XRP NFTs. Okay, so if you don't hold any XRP NFTs, Super Eagle could be one to look into. Now they have their own token and they also have their own NFT and a breeding game. So they sent me these three. My favorite one is obviously this one with the devil horns and the knife in his mouth. And then you can actually go and here's their Twitter right here. Very professional project on the XRP Ledger, one of the most solid I've seen. And to interact with any of this, you need the Zoom wallet. So if you want to buy one of these, you need the Zoom wallet. Zoom is like the main wallet that I use for XRP NFTs. But let's check out the breeding game right here. Right. So this is the home screen of the breeding game. It says welcome to Super Eagle. And then this is actually a protest coin. So Super Eagles is demanding regulatory clarity for all cryptocurrencies and they won't be stopping their demonstration until they get it. So build your nest and roost your Super Eagles in this revolutionary idle NFT generation game on the XRP Ledger. Owning at least 2 Super Eagles allows you to generate Baby Eagle NFTs. And then you can also stake your Super Eagles and generate Super Eagle coin, which is SEC, which I like the ticker right there, SEC. And then you can spend those SEC coins to, to get potions and upgrade your nest and stuff. So here is my Super Eagle account and you can see they have a nice little pixelated game here. It's an idle game, right? So you don't actually like actively play, but you can stake your eagles in here. I've staked one right here. I named this guy Satan, of course, because his, uh, horns. Um, I need to think of a name. Drop a name for this guy. But I stake them, and if you stake for 2 weeks, you actually— this egg will hatch and you'll get a free, uh, baby eagle NFT, right? So they are breeding right now, and we're gonna get a randomly generated baby eagle NFT. I'm also As I'm staking, I'm generating SEC coin, and you can cash out your rewards and withdraw things right here. You can also swap, and there's a shop as well where they're, where they're going to have stuff that you can buy to upgrade your nest and stuff. And, you know, there's 728 out of 1,000 eagles, so you can buy 2 random eagles now and use them for the game. Very, very cool project right here. Um, I love to see it. Like, this is a great one building. They have their light paper right here as well that you can go through. Um, you know, this shows everything about the game. This shows how they evolved into XLS-20. Uh, very, very cool project right here. They are a protest coin, which I love. I, I think that's a cool, uh, use case for a coin is to actively be about a cause. Uh, so big shout out to them. Thank you for, uh, sponsoring, uh, this portion of the video. Love to see the XRP NFTs drop in the comments. What other XRP NFTs should I get into, uh, in the coming days here? So let's get back to the Q&A. This guy says XRP and Chainlink content he wants to see. We covered some of that today. Dead Pixels— I'll give my thoughts on Dead Pixels. Dead Pixels is one of the strongest HBAR NFTs Absolutely love it. Uh, do you think the Layer Zero protocol will have, uh, any effect on Quant in the future? So I'm assuming she might be referring to this one, which I've actually never heard of. Just Layer Zero it's called. I will have to look into this. They— looks like they have a bridge to Aptos. Um, very interesting. Now, the— now, just off the bat, I don't think it will have an effect on Quant. Because Quant can just connect all the Layer 0 protocols anyways. And Quant is already, you know, the chosen one. It's chosen by governments. It's chosen by, you know, company— huge companies like Oracle. This guy says, I just saw you on the X-Factor new episode. They had you as an agent. So yes, if you go to X-Factor, I was actually featured. Oh, not, not in this one. They post a lot. They post a lot. And I Is it there? No. So if you scroll down on X-Spectre, we've worked with them and partnered up with them before, but I was actually featured in this movie. It's a straight up movie, right? Like they got this guy acting like he's, you know, it's very high quality. But I was featured in this. If you want to go watch that, you can go watch that on their account right there. So moving through more of these questions, Energy Web seems to be a good opportunity as far as total supply. Yes, Energy Web is a token that I've talked about before. I am extremely bullish on it. Uh, Energy Web metaverse update, it was so hyped up and then the topic died along with the tokens. This is correct, the metaverse narrative exploded and then went away. Okay, and that's how and why we need to learn narrative trading. And going back to the little Twitter beef I had with that alter ego guy, You know, if you knew that, you know, that was a narrative that was being pushed, you could capitalize on all the metaverse coins and get out before the narrative dies off. It's simple basic narrative trading. This guy says, how you and Meg BZK met and how crypto and NFT have made you guys so close? Uh, we met on TikTok. I had been watching her content for a while, she had been watching mine, and then we ended up doing a live stream, uh, which is Actually, if you want to go watch it, you can type in Crypto Mason and Meg BZK live on YouTube, and there it is, one year ago. And you can see our first TikTok live. And then we went to a conference in Banff and we hit it off. And that is the origin story of that. Okay, now let's keep going here. And crypto and NFT have made us close because that's where we met each other. Best AI crypto tokens. So Vector Space AI is one that I would keep an eye on because those datasets are going to be very useful when things get even more popular like ChatGPT, etc. As for other AI tokens, I'm actually not that well-versed in knowing some of the AI tokens. So if you have some that you want me to look into, drop them below. Are we at the beginning of a bull run? This question was answered in my previous market update. Uh, let's see, would be dollar to silver and dollar to gold ratios currently. He wants me to talk about, um, you know, that's $0 per ounce dollar to silver ratio. I, I'm— I don't know much about that. Uh, more discussion on COTI. COTI is a great project in the Cardano ecosystem, and I will say that I am bullish on COTI. Uh, they look to, you know, they're launching the JED stablecoin soon, the JED or whatever. Show us your open trades, please. I have zero open trades at the moment. Um, zero. I like to just buy in the moment. Uh, so this guy says Hideaway's presale and token, please. You know, I'm not really into the presales that much right now. How about some good interviews? That could be cool. LCX. This will be the final one. LCX is a great project, uh, and I am still bullish on LCX. So moving on to the last thing, uh, this is a tweet that I put out. I am blocking any account posting murder or fight videos simply because I don't need that negative energy in my inner matrix, and I'm seeing an abnormal push by the algorithm on these videos right now propagating more division. So something that's been happening on my Twitter timeline, and I'm sure a lot of you guys have been seeing it too, is these fight videos and these murder— straight up actual just murder videos have been getting abnormal pushes by the algorithm, in my opinion. Very, very horrible, right? And I'm always watching them. That's what I notice. Our brains are wired to want to watch that stuff, uh, just to see what happens, right? The shock value just makes us want to see what happens. Um, but I have declared in my consciousness that I do not want these image— this imagery and this division and this negativity crossing into my inner matrix. So I'm blocking any account that I see posting a murder or fight video. And lots of people, you know, are standing by me on this one. And, you know, all those videos do is propagate more division, right? And, and I can feel my energy take a dip after I watch those videos. My energy dips, like I feel just like almost sick after I watch those. So I'm blocking anything. Let me know if you guys are on board with that. But that is all we've got. Make sure you join the Gold Squad Discord. Drop a like and comment. I love every single one of you, and goodbye.
