5:04Unknown Last week on Bugle Weekly, Rod and Richard celebrate compliance pride month, a month of observation and recognition for all the hard working HR and legal departments at Bitcoin companies working hard to comply with the government. They discussed Donald Trump's noncompliance conviction in New York City as well as how government noncompliance is the direct result of Dennis Porter and Bitcoin Policy Institute lobbying politicians, as well as how politicians continue their noncompliance and attack Bitcoin in Congress. Speaking of Dennis Porter, Robin Roosch would explore price discovery regarding the value of a video of Dennis Porter orange peeling AOC in front of her fiance. Lastly, Rod and Richard discussed quarantining noncompliant politicians in Washington DC as well as testing politicians for genetic predisposition

5:51Unknown to noncompliance. Well, that wraps up last week. We hope you enjoy this week. Week.

6:01Unknown You are listening to the Bugle Weekly, the most thermodynamically sound name in news. Here are your hosts, Rod Palmer and Dick Grieser.

6:13Richard Greaser Alright, everyone. Welcome to The Bugle.

6:17Rod Palmer How are you doing, Rod? Doing really good, Richard. And I just wanted to start by say I'd be remiss to not recognize the monumentous occasion

6:30Rod Palmer this week that happened to our neighbor to the south in Mexico. The first female resident of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum. Very, very Mexican name. Sounds like she's gonna be a great leader.

6:47Rod Palmer Just so I just wanna congratulate the Mexican voters for this monumental achievement that they've they've voted for. And the other thing that was in the news, I don't know if you saw this but 37.

7:02Rod Palmer The deadline came out. 37 politicians running for office in Mexico this cycle had been assassinated. And then the day the article came out, another mayoral candidate got assassinated. Did you see this?

7:16Richard Greaser I did. I I I didn't read into it very deeply, but I did see the headlines.

7:21Rod Palmer And it's crazy. And and I was in the real plaid, Telegram group chat. Some of the plaids on there responded. They posted a link to it, and they were saying, this is soap based. And I had to remind some of the plaids. I was like, it sounds based. You know, the politicians are afraid of of the voters. They're afraid of the citizens. And maybe this is a little too extreme in the in at one of the one of the pod cop media outlets, I can't remember which one it was, but they had a tweet. And they blamed the bugle for the thirty eighth assassination. They said that this was, headquarters in Mexico seeking non compliance civil non compliance month too far. And, first of all, we have nothing to do with that assassination. We did not we did not sanction it. We don't know anybody who was behind it. So I wanted to dispel

8:08Rod Palmer that fud right away. But I you're back to the pledge, dude. I just want I reminded them. You have to be careful what you wish for. Because, yeah, there's a lot of non compliance in Mexico. But as a result,

8:24Rod Palmer during COVID, you know, Mexicans did not have access to lockdowns. They did not have access to vaccine mandates. And that is a trade off you have to make if you're a little too non compliant with the government. Yeah. So

8:40Richard Greaser who has there been more politicians that have died than Boeing whistleblowers? Like, is there a race going on between The US and Mexico in assassinations right now?

8:52Rod Palmer Yeah. I it's it seems like they're they're having their own tournament. You know, we we've got our compliance five month tournament going on on social media and we can talk about that later. But there has been a similar tournament between Boeing and the Mexican cartels who could kill the most political enemies. But, yeah, the Mexican the Mexican cartels are way ahead in that matter. I think it's it's like 40 to three at this point.

9:18Richard Greaser Yeah. So, I mean, this is a pretty interesting search. So I don't know much about the the president, other than that she's female. By her name yeah. I have some questions because it doesn't sound like a Mexican name to me. You said it sounded very Mexican. What what did you say her name was?

9:40Rod Palmer Claudia Sheinbaum.

9:43Richard Greaser Sheinbaum.

9:45Rod Palmer Oh. Oh. People people have noticed that's a different name. There's a lot of noticing going on, but, by all accounts, she she's born and raised in Mexico and and has been a political leader. She was the, director of environmental policy under the president,

10:02Rod Palmer in, like, 2006 is what I read. And so she's risen above the ranks. She's very leftist, obviously. But, you know, we'll see what her rule looks like. I mean, it's it's just I think we're just we're set in the moment celebrating her being the first female, but maybe we're getting a little too ahead of ourselves, and we don't know her politics very well yet. Yeah.

10:23Richard Greaser Well, we'll have to see. I mean, I I've been surprised that, Bitcoin magazine hasn't tweeted about her saying that she said something about Bitcoin or that David Bailey is talking to her or anything like that. I mean, it's been very quiet election as far as, Right.

10:38Rod Palmer Their Samson now I wonder if Samson now has any insight on this. So Samson, if you're listening to this, please let us know what you know about Claudia or excuse me, President Sheinbaum. But you did mention something important. You mentioned the the disparity between the assassinations of political candidates in Mexico versus whistleblowers.

10:59Rod Palmer And I think that part of Mexico's lead in this tournament is comes down to the efficiency of their assassination markets where I don't think we have any on chain assassination markets in The United States anymore. But down in Mexico, they are they're trading assassination tokens on Solana and people who pull off these political assassinations are getting paid in meme coins on Solana

11:24Rod Palmer which I think is probably contributing to the rise in these events is probably related to this monetary incentive that people have to pull these off. So, I mean, that's a really interesting thing

11:38Richard Greaser to to think about is the CIA could really use these these types of noncompliant assassination markets in in the global South to try and create coups and influence elections.

11:53Rod Palmer Right. I mean, this could even this could extend into stablecoins that they could use Tether to to pay, assassins. It could become the assassin's money. But there has been discussion between builders, on different chains notably

12:10Rod Palmer Ethereum as well as even Bitcoin, where people have been wanting to bring these assassination markets back to Bitcoin, the Bitcoin maximalists do. And unfortunately, it's not, well depending on who you talk to unfortunately, some people think fortunately. But depending on who you talk to, this is because fees are too high on chain and it may not be a coincidence that they are so high. It may be

12:37Rod Palmer that there's CIA influence kind of working against open source developers, working against, on chain assassination markets that are preventing this from coming to Bitcoin which is very disappointing to the maximalists.

12:52Richard Greaser Yeah. I mean, Michael Saylor has been talking about how we need to slow down on the development side, how we need to stop funding. You know, I've been talking about how we should we should have stopped funding core devs a long time ago or at least not as much. Right. So he seems to be, like I I don't know where he'd rather have those funds directed, but it seems like he wants to keep Bitcoin compliant for the time being for it to get a foothold, and then we cannot comply. That seems to be a strategy.

13:25Richard Greaser But, yeah, I mean, these assassination markets are really, really interesting. So I think the important thing is is is just knowing the level of the noncompliance the CIA has. Like, when you're when you're gambling and drug cartels and, you know, which are sometimes affiliated with intelligence agencies, when there's overlap there,

13:48Richard Greaser you know, you're really play placing a lot of trust into who the writers of the smart contract are deciding that that contract. And then, you know, it's a situation where the house, you know, oftentimes wins because they can, you know, really influence the terms of the contract and and readjust them in the middle and rug pull the user. So I would I would caution individuals to be very careful

14:16Rod Palmer Yeah. Engaging in activities like that. And in these cartels, they're they're sending a lot of fentanyl and other drugs to The United States and that requires, as you know, as we all know, requires money laundering. If there's money laundering involved, you can bet your bottom dollar, your bottom peso that the CIA and the Mexican version of the CIA, whatever those guys are, that they're involved. Yep. It's,

14:42Richard Greaser it's pretty scary times down there. I mean, it it's it's kinda scary times here as well. I mean, we do you have anything else on this Mexico situation? I mean, it's pretty wild that, you know, 40 or so politicians have been assassinated via these assassination markets. You know, people are gambling on politicians' lives.

15:02Rod Palmer It's not really being covered a whole lot. No. It's not. You think that this would be a much more you think this would be all over the news, especially with everybody coming across the border? Like, we don't know how many, meme coin smart contract creators are entering the country, and they are gonna be more incentivized when they get to The United States to try to bring this stuff to Bitcoin, to try to bring this stuff to Ethereum. And I think that a lot of the compliance industry is gonna be having their hands full trying to deal with it. I think down in Mexico, you've got this weird situation where you've got the cartels and the government, and there's this tug of war for who has controls and neither neither side is compliant. So people are not sure which which side to comply with. And it it really causes a lot of confusion and a lot of tragedy for people. We kinda get caught in the crossfire of noncompliance down there.

15:52Richard Greaser Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it it's hard it's hard to know what to do,

15:56Rod Palmer when people And people but people said that that that that's why they're so many immigrants trying to come to United States. The rules of compliance are much more clear here in The United States. However, that situation is getting murkier by the day, And some of them are some of them are staying back. Some of them are saying, I'm staying in El Salvador. This is much more compliant here. They've gotten rid of noncompliance.

16:21Richard Greaser I feel safe here. I'm coming back from The United States. I'm not gonna stay here anymore. How many of the people coming across the border do you think just had big winnings on these, assassination markets, and they're trying to use their winnings to come across the border and and provide a better life for themselves?

16:39Rod Palmer Yeah. I think that's I think that's probably the majority of them. I think they've they've won, you know, millions of pesos worth of of cash and meme coins, and they're coming here to start a new life. They're coming here to to start a, you know, new farming career, new agricultural career. And and it's unfortunately, some of them get bused or shipped up to New York City or Chicago, and it's cold, and there's no farming jobs. And they're they're wondering, like, how do I how do I convert my my meme coin winnings to cash? And it's that's what's making them want to come and bring the stuff on Bitcoin because they they have Bitcoin ATMs that they can use, they can cash out on. But the fees are just so high that it eats up their pace of savings. Yeah.

17:22Richard Greaser Man, that's just such a sad situation. I I really feel for, you know, people in tough situations like that. And, you know, I I just wish that Mexico could have the stability that they needed so that people, you know, felt like there was a future there.

17:39Rod Palmer Yeah. I mean, we some people are calling for a new NAFTA, North American Free Token Agreement, where these meme token, beneficiaries can exchange

17:52Rod Palmer their winnings, frankly, with that, you know, without being taxed, without being terrorist, in in any country in North America. But, you know, maybe Donald Trump will will take that up, and he'll talk about he's been very anti NAFTA in the past. But I think maybe this new NAFTA might cause him to flip flop on free trade and free tokens.

18:11Richard Greaser Yeah. Well, you know, hopefully, these assassination markets, you know, turn to something good because, like, the whole theory on them that Jim Bell came up with is that it would take care of the noncompliant actors first.

18:26Rod Palmer But in this scenario, it seems like it's kinda reversed where the noncompliant actors are benefiting from them. Yeah. It's it's it's really comes down to game theory and more often than not, the non compliant end up being the cantillionaires and we have to reverse that. It's not a very thermodynamically sound society.

18:46Richard Greaser Yeah. Well, it's probably because the markets are being built on Solana, which is a non thermodynamic.

18:53Rod Palmer Right. Or Yeah. That's the those are the consequences. Incentives matter.

18:58Richard Greaser They do. Well, you know, it I think in, you know, probably, like, a few years from now when the rest of the world has figured out that Bitcoin has won, we could probably see Vegas running assassination markets of some sort. I think once the government sees that something like that could be taxed,

19:20Richard Greaser they're probably gonna

19:22Rod Palmer approve it. Right, and you think about FanDuel, think about, like, citizen duel, where if you wanna challenge politician to a duel, you can you can put out a bet on the on the on the assassination markets, and they have to out they have to out raise you. They have to out they have to grow more engagement than you

19:43Rod Palmer or else, you know,

19:45Richard Greaser the consequences could be dire. Yeah. I mean, it's really gonna change change the world as we see it once these become more developed and widespread.

19:55Rod Palmer It'll really it'll civil defense, and civil attacks will really be on the rise if this kind of market gets a foothold in The United States.

20:04Richard Greaser Definitely. Well, on to the next topic. So we we talked a little we introduced Compliance Pride Month last week on the show. And that has continued. So to celebrate Compliance Pride Month, we have the bugle has conducted a tournament of 64 different Bitcoin companies,

20:31Richard Greaser competing to show who has the most compliance pride.

20:35Rod Palmer This is bad. In an electric tournament, we had our fresh tournament back in March, the influencer tournament, which was obviously won by Yellow. But this one is about clients and and recognizing the hard work that HR and legal departments and these big companies are doing just to remain in compliance with with politicians in the government. And honestly, I was a little there wasn't a lot of awareness for Compliance Pride Month until we brought and we till we reported about it.

21:04Rod Palmer But even considering the lack of awareness, the participation, the pride, and the enthusiasm has honestly it's really surprised me. It's been really encouraging to see.

21:18Richard Greaser Yeah. Yeah. I mean, it it's it's that that has happened because so many people in the Bitcoin industry have just gotten to know, fanfare. Like, nobody ever applauds the compliance department. But they're the first people you interact with when you use a lot of these products, offered by the companies involved in the tournament. Right. And

21:44Richard Greaser and it's just unfortunate. Like, you know, all these companies could not they could not function without HR departments managing all the behaviors within the company. Like, if you do not sign

21:59Richard Greaser your employee agreement and and employee handbook on a yearly basis, then, you know, how are you gonna be complying with the government?

22:09Rod Palmer One thing. If you look at the final four, it can be it's a little bit surprising. Right? So the final four, we're down to the final four. Voting is taking place right now. So by the time you hear this, we'll be here the championship round. And the final four I know is between Fold, RoadApp, and they're going against, is it CoinDice? Right? Yeah. And then you on the other on the other side, you've got the What Bitcoin Did podcast versus, I think it's Marathon, the miners.

22:38Rod Palmer And people are people have been asking, why is What Bitcoin? Why is a podcast in this compliance tournament? It's like there's not really a Bitcoin company. But what people don't realize is that What Bitcoin did is the biggest podcast in the in the world, not just Bitcoin for anything. And what what is the essence of that company? Or what is the essence of that enterprise? It is people telling their stories, getting their stories out there so that they're it is broadcast to the world, so everybody can have that information.

23:07Rod Palmer And what you don't what I would not people don't realize is your first interaction with a Bitcoin company is you are telling them your story. Your comply their compliance departments are are learning about you, the customer. They're getting to know you. You're telling them your Bitcoin story and, like, everything about you, and that is now going to all these servers around the world and is permanently there. You know, people will always have your story and know, you know, your interaction with that company and and and how much Bitcoin you bought. So what Bitcoin did kinda leads the way. It sets the example for all these other companies to how how do we know more about our customers? How do we let them tell their story? I mean, when when I am needing a product or service to use

23:50Richard Greaser in the Bitcoin space, the first thing I do is I listen to Peter's podcast to kinda get a catalog of all the compliant companies Right. Of the moment. Right. Exactly. And it's kinda frustrating, you know, how they rotate around sometimes because sometimes we'll go through, like, the process of, you know, KYCing

24:10Richard Greaser with like, I remember you remember when Kraken used to be a sponsor of Peter? Right. Right. And then, you know, when it changed over to Gemini, I had to use Gemini or had the KYC again. And then when I changed over to Swan, I had the KYC again. And so, you know, there's a lot of I'm I'm still trying to figure out what to do. Like, how do I engage with Iron Energy as an individual? I tried to, like, email

24:39Richard Greaser their CFO, like, my KYC information, but he hasn't responded.

24:48Rod Palmer Russel, let me just say about Iron, the legends at Iron Energy.

24:52Richard Greaser Freaking massive legends. Yeah. I I mean, what do they do? They they do something with AI and mining and energy?

24:60Rod Palmer Yeah. It's it is it is so complex. This there's so much proof of work involved that it's just that's why they're legends. I mean, who else can do that?

25:09Richard Greaser Yeah. I mean, they don't they don't seem to be really getting any benefit from sponsoring the podcast other than just, like, showing that they're legends because, like,

25:19Rod Palmer you know, if you One of their one of the benefits they're getting is now the people who like to bet on on Bitcoin mining stocks are they are aware that they can go on their, you know, Schwab or their Robinhood, and they can buy options and they can buy take leverage and buy their stock. And then as AI and and Bitcoin go up in value, well, obviously, iRing would go up as well because it has both of those things involved. So they can just massively profit, due to this due to these option strategies, and they wouldn't be aware of it Is this even possible if it wasn't for their sponsorship?

25:54Richard Greaser Well, this is, like, a criticism I have of Peter is he doesn't have a full stack of sponsors. Because, like, he's okay, so he's shilling a company's stock,

26:08Richard Greaser but but he's not necessarily shilling the stock because that'd probably be illegal. He's he's just educating people about the company to bring, you know, brand name awareness around

26:20Rod Palmer it. Right. He's letting you know that they're legends.

26:22Richard Greaser Yeah.

26:24Rod Palmer You could do that information what you want, but I'm betting on legends. I'll tell you that. But which which company, Peter,

26:31Richard Greaser do I use to buy the stock in the legends? Which which broker do I KYC with? Is it Robinhood? Is it Schwab? Is it Fidelity? You know, Fidelity probably sponsor you.

26:47Rod Palmer Right. That's a good point.

26:49Richard Greaser Yeah. No. Peter needs to work on this this time. Yeah. That's hard to think about. I you know, I'm personally incredibly upset. I'm you know, maybe this is why I'm going along this this line of questioning. I'm I'm pretty salty that what Bitcoin did beat Anchor Watch. I thought that was just like an unreasonable, upset. And my I was not emotionally prepared, to watch that happen.

27:16Rod Palmer I think Yahoo Auctions do a better job of knowing their customer. I think if they knew their customer as well as Peter did, they would have had the votes. I think that they would have been able to reach out to those customers and let them know how important this tournament is, and they would have had the votes. So maybe it's underdied, I think, you know, what Bitcoin does been around a little bit longer than Anchor Watch. And so they're definitely, you know, one of those companies that are on the rise that are worth watching,

27:45Richard Greaser but they have a lot of work to do. Yeah. But, I mean, they have, like, the Anchor Watch I fur I forgot what that girl was that everybody's freaking out about, the NCAA women's basketball. You know what I'm talking about? That girl from Iowa. Caitlin Clark. Caitlin Clark. Yeah. So, what what's her name? Becca?

28:05Rod Palmer Becca Amelie.

28:07Richard Greaser Amelie? Yeah. Becca Amelie. She's like the Caitlin Clark of Anchor Watch. And I I guess it's only appropriate because the, you know, Iowa lost in the championship towards that Right. Against that other sports ball team.

28:21Rod Palmer Right. So it's it's probably more of a, you know, what what's the the quote from back to the future? It's like, you you guys don't get it, but your kids will love it. And next generation, you know, class of 2024, they'll they'll probably appreciate

28:39Rod Palmer Anchor Watch and Becca a lot more than we do today. I think we take too much for granted right now. Yeah. I mean, well, this could be the moment, you know, where

28:49Richard Greaser they they did well. I mean, getting to the Elite Eight is no, no small feat. So good job to to Anchor Watch and and the team over there and and Becca. Keep it up. Your compliance is, is

29:04Rod Palmer noticed. It's a Bitcoin standard of compliance.

29:06Richard Greaser Yeah. Nobody complies harder. But, yeah, Marathon is gonna be they're they're currently down to what Bitcoin did in the in the current polls. We're recording Sunday

29:21Richard Greaser afternoon, evening. Fold is, you know, currently leading Coinbase, which isn't that surprising because Coinbase didn't really engage with the contest at all. And they've been

29:37Rod Palmer they've been really leading the charge from the Bitcoin community in terms of civil noncompliance. They've been suing the SEC. They've been fighting them in court. So right now, despite all the groundwork they've laid for compliance for the past ten years, decade plus,

29:57Rod Palmer They've been leading the noncompliance, strike against the government. So I think that at this point in time, even though the size and the backing and the the funding, the disparity is enormous.

30:11Richard Greaser Feud is just outclassing them with the fundamentals. And when the and when it comes to tournament time, fundamentals do matter. Yeah. I mean, I guess that's a good point. I I just would have figured, you know, the reason why Coinbase hasn't really shown up to the tournament is because they they feel like their level of compliance is significantly higher than than their competitor fold. They must have

30:37Rod Palmer Right. I think part of it as well is it's they may not be really aware of how big of a deal this tournament is due to their inability to parse the signal from the noise. They've got so much civil attacks going on in their mentions, on social media that I don't know if the signal which is would, you know, be notifications that they've been tagged by the bugle or even, you know, making it to

31:04Rod Palmer the proper credentialed authorities to let them know that they should interact.

31:08Richard Greaser Mhmm. Yeah. And it might be I think there's there might be some internal company rules to only engage with crypto related media platforms that have the word coin in it. So they're probably, like, exclusively working with Cointelegraph and CoinDesk.

31:26Rod Palmer Right. And Chain as well. Chainalysis.

31:28Richard Greaser Is Chainalysis a media company?

31:31Rod Palmer We got a blog. So they do have a blog. Yeah.

31:35Richard Greaser Okay. So I mean, this brings a I'm getting out of order of our agenda. But this gets into the question of what is a Bitcoin company. And Can you just identify as a Bitcoin company? Is that how it works? Is it like, you know, biology? I mean, it's that's something that, like, I really struggled with. So I brought up the the question before doing this tournament because I was having I was having trouble figuring out who to include on the list.

32:05Richard Greaser And I think, you know, at the end of the day, like, my opinion on what a Bitcoin company is is just whatever company identifies with it. And an example of this is Ben Jossman was really upset that that Pony Lane didn't have an opportunity to compete in the tournament. That's tough. I mean,

32:26Rod Palmer he identifies his wine company as a Bitcoin company, but, you know, is it more about the wine or is it more about the sets? I think that he, you know, I think that he deserves to be included. Again, a very a very nascent, very new company. I I'm sure by this time next year, he could be included. It's gonna be a lot of companies, I think, especially in the mining bracket that are just not gonna be around in one year.

32:54Richard Greaser Yeah. Yeah. And and so, you know, it it kinda comes down so if the way that a Bitcoin company becomes a Bitcoin company, if it's dependent on the company self identifying as one, then it really comes down to the ownership structure of the companies. And there needs to be a consensus amongst the shareholders

33:20Richard Greaser to determine whether they're a Bitcoin company, a crypto company, or something else entirely.

33:26Rod Palmer And, you know, some people would take take exception with the idea. You can just identify as one of these companies, but I disagree with that because if you're going to well, I guess it's something to think about. Like, are you gonna gain more benefit from identifying as a as a Bitcoin company versus the amount of extra clients that's gonna be required of you

33:47Rod Palmer once you identify. So you have to look at the incentives and see why is this company identifying as Bitcoin when it comes with all this extra compliance? Well, you know, everybody's different. Everybody's got a different reason why. Yeah.

34:04Richard Greaser Yeah. I mean, I think one of the one of the problems that has happened, you know, when I look at this list is I I highly doubt that the shareholders have come have come to a consensus around whether the company is a Bitcoin company or not. And I think the marketing teams are kind of running with, just running with the the term to to gain favor.

34:31Richard Greaser Those compliance departments are gonna be pretty upset with them when they find out what the consequences are. Well, this is one of the reasons why it's so important to have each, you know, a vibrant and assertive HR department. Like, you want those people to have teeth to be able to make sure that, you know, people are following the right steps. So, you know, for for startups that are out there wow. I didn't did you realize we didn't even include the Bitcoin company on this tournament?

35:02Rod Palmer Stupid. How could we have how could we have missed that? Wow. It was right silence. But I also make a really good point. I think for Ben, for P and E Lanes to be included next year, they're gonna need one thing that they don't have today, which is an HR department. And if you include an HR department at P and E lanes, you will be eligible for the draft. Otherwise, then how can we trust

35:26Rod Palmer that your compliance is is meeting the standard? Yeah.

35:30Richard Greaser Yeah. I mean, if you don't even hire a single compliance influencer at your company, then it's kinda difficult to justify putting you on the list. But I'm sure there's some examples of this. Like, we know that Jessica over at AMBOSS is repping compliance harder than everybody else, and that's why AMBOSS is on there.

35:52Rod Palmer Yeah. Surprised to see them go down so early.

35:56Richard Greaser I was surprised too and and to be defeated by Voltage, I I really wonder what, you know, the voters were thinking. It's gonna be important to do some good good quality exit polls during this tournament.

36:08Rod Palmer Yeah. It it could be it like, a this is not a catch point too. I don't I I I can't think of what I'm looking for. But if you spend too much time on compliance and not enough time on marketing, you might not do really well in these these tournaments.

36:22Richard Greaser Mhmm. Well, I mean, there's there's, like, kind of a true factor when you so there's three things that are really important to running a successful company. There's there's compliance, there's marketing, and then there's building.

36:38Richard Greaser And all three of those three things need to have the right amount of energy dedicated to each one for there to be proper balance. And if there isn't, things will get super out of whack. And I think that's one of the challenges is just, you know, running an organization is to find the correct give or take to give in between these three very important things. And, you know, sometimes, like, during compliance month, it seems like it's really a good time to dial back on building and just focus on marketing and complying.

37:10Rod Palmer Right. And this and this emphasizes the the need for a business bachelor's degree if you're gonna be an entrepreneur. I mean, anybody technically could start a company. If you don't have a bachelor's degree, you're not gonna take those engineering and physics classes to learn about thermodynamics. It's gonna be very difficult for your company to be thermodynamically sound if you don't even understand what that word means. Yeah.

37:35Richard Greaser 100%. Well, to go on but, yeah, I mean, I'll finish on what you just said and respond to it. If you don't know what the word thermodynamics means, then you probably haven't listened to enough Michael Sailor yet.

37:51Richard Greaser So that's that's the, that's the I don't know. It's kind of a a test that you can run on people. Right. So when when you're when you're at, you know, a Bitcoin event and you go to a meetup and you're trying to gauge, you know, how knowledgeable

38:10Richard Greaser somebody is on the topic, you know, don't don't ask if people have accounts on bitcointalk.org or when they got into Bitcoin, ask them to define thermodynamics. And if they

38:24Richard Greaser explain things like Michael Saylor does, then you know that they put in the work in.

38:29Rod Palmer Exactly. And it's go back to sports again. If somebody can't do a layup, you can't trust them to shoot three pointers. It's just that simple. Yeah. Hey, fellow plebs. I wanna tell you about the Comply clothing line. The conference season is really heating up this summer and you need cool swag to wear. The Bugle has you covered. We are partnering with OrangeLabel to bring you the best in quality t shirts, hats, and women's swimsuits. By purchasing our clothing, you can help redefine the conversation around compliance

39:01Rod Palmer while also supporting real journalism. You have the opportunity to be the pleb that rocks the coolest merch, which will definitely turn heads. Going to the conference looking to find a trad wife? Boost your chances of finding her by heading over to the website orangelabel.co or click the link in the episode show notes to check out the Comply clothing line today.

39:24Richard Greaser Okay. Next topic, compliance tournament has been fun. But, yeah. So this is, this is some, you know, really empowering news that so this is a PSA to all the Bitcoin podcasters out there. We we have one. Bitcoin has won,

39:43Richard Greaser and history is written by the victors. And because we are the victors, that means that we are currently the ones writing history. And so the Bitcoin podcasters, all the podcasts we're doing right now are gonna be determining the curriculum in schools for decades to come. Right. And

40:04Rod Palmer it's very easy to, you know, lose sight of the fact that it seems like Bitcoin hasn't already won. Everybody's living in the past. They're referring to history books. They're referring to headlines that were written in the past.

40:23Rod Palmer So it seems like depending on, you know, where you get your news, if you don't get your news from the bugle, for example, it may seem like Bitcoin hasn't already won. Oh, it's up to us. It's up to the podcasters. It's up to the news, the journalist, the credential journalists to write the news, to blog the news, to tweet the news. Because when people look back whether it's an hour from now, a day from now, a week from now, or ten years from now, they're gonna go back and they're gonna find all the book, all the Bitcoin books, all the podcasts, all the tweets and they're gonna use that to determine what happened, who won,

41:00Rod Palmer which side won which battle. And if all of that if all of that information and there's just terabytes and terabytes of data that is getting put out there every day, if it's all information saying and reporting the fact that Bitcoin has already won, That's how people in the future will know what is happening. That's how they will gauge and and and and find their their orientation, how they navigate reality

41:27Rod Palmer by looking at the past. And we're the ones writing the past. And this is why you need journalists and Bitcoin authors writing books and making podcasts

41:36Richard Greaser to inform the future. One of one of the really interesting things that I was just thinking about as you were talking is just just how much warfare has changed over the years. And, you know, when we look at Bitcoin going from zero to the the point that it's at right now, there's been a lot of hard fought battles. You know, when you when you think about the revolutionary war, there's gonna be all these, you know, different battles like, you know, the Battle of Saratoga,

42:05Richard Greaser that are referenced, in history books, and they're gonna be compared against Bitcoin sign guy, flashing the buy Bitcoin sign behind Janet Yellen. Like, that was our battle of Saratoga. That was our battle of Bunker Hill.

42:23Richard Greaser When?

42:25Rod Palmer Well, it was in the past used to be fought with boats and bombs and and armies, but now wars fought with information. And that is why, and I've been very consistent about this, though we just celebrated D Day, the anniversary of D Day a few days ago. And President of The United States, he he pooped his pants on stage in France to celebrate. And

42:46Rod Palmer but the the heroes that stormed the beaches of Normandy, that that's who we are today. We are the modern version of those GI heroes. We are the ones fighting the information war. Right? You know, the podcasters and the journalists. Like, that's why I believe and I've said this multiple times that there should be, like, veterans discounts. We should be vilified for veterans,

43:12Rod Palmer benefits, veterans healthcare, because we are the veterans of the modern

43:17Richard Greaser war age. Yeah. Yeah. So when you when you think of the Fiat people that are still fighting the war, so there's all these stories of Japanese soldiers that fought for decades after the war already ended because they didn't have the information about, you know, the emperor surrendering.

43:36Rod Palmer Too many credentialed journalists were killed in war for them to get the news done.

43:41Richard Greaser Yeah. Well, they they also didn't have the communication, you know, methods that we have today. Yeah. You could listen to a a podcast on the foxhole. Yeah. So it you know, the way that we can let these stranded fiat maximalists that have not heard the news yet know that they can lay down their arms and surrender and join us. The best way to let them know is, you know, right now as you're listening and to, like, stop what you're doing, go to Twitter,

44:13Richard Greaser and post some inspirational tweet about Bitcoin having already won. Or or you could go to Stacker News or go to Noster, whichever your your preferred, spot to hang out is Yeah. Your preferred pronouns. And let let the people know. Let the people know that Bitcoin has already won because there's a lot of people that are really resistant to this idea. And, like, one of my one of my fears is

44:38Richard Greaser is that instead of accepting our victory, what's gonna happen is a lot of Bitcoiners are gonna try and exploit this idea of war and create kind of an industrial complex, a a a war industrial complex in the Bitcoin ecosystem system where they keep on fighting invisible

45:00Richard Greaser enemies in the same way the U. S. Military did following World War II. Yeah, that's a huge risk. That's a huge risk.

45:07Rod Palmer I think that part of reporting that Bitcoin has already won kind of helps limit this is how Bitcoin limits war. It limits this warfare in this industrial complex and it's it's very similar to, like, religious people. Like, obviously, Christianity won

45:27Rod Palmer thousands of years ago, and everybody kind of knows it for the most part. There's some, you know, heretics, but people still go to, you know, their church every Sunday night, every Sunday, every Wednesday. It's repeatable. They they read the same verses over and over again. It's like reading the same tweets over and over. It's like people every morning they get on Twitter and they say good morning and they say go fuck yourself or they say something like, you know, some message should go with the GM. And that's what you have to do like, good morning. Bitcoin has already won. Have something inspirational every single day. It's a reminder. It's a it's a ritual that goes into the culture and embeds itself and makes itself very self inherent,

46:07Rod Palmer self evident.

46:09Richard Greaser Mhmm. And, like, you know, part of the reason I think it's important to know this too is people just know they need to know how to carry themselves right now. They need to act like winners instead of losers. And there's a lot of people that are acting like

46:22Rod Palmer losers. Character that is unbecoming of a winner is is detrimental to the cause.

46:28Richard Greaser Yeah. I mean, it it all at the end of the day, what it comes down to is people just underestimate the power of Dennis Porter. To their own detriment. Yeah. To their own extreme detriment. And they're just, you know, too adversarial

46:46Richard Greaser minded. And, like, right now is you you can stop being adversarially minded. Like, you think it's good to, like, be a little bit. Like, you know, tone it down from, like, 80 to 90 to 99% down to, like, 30%. So only be, like, 30%,

47:03Richard Greaser adversarially minded and, you know, maybe then we can start getting these these updates to the network that, you know, Twitter spaces thinks are, necessary.

47:13Rod Palmer Exactly. Speaking of of adversarial transacting, there's some big news about everybody's, favorite military Bitcoiner, Spaceboy, Jason Lowry. Can you share with listeners, you know, what the big what the big development is with with JP?

47:32Richard Greaser Yeah. I mean, but he has been engaged with the Trump campaign to secure his position in their cabinet as the treasury secretary,

47:46Richard Greaser which is pretty

47:49Rod Palmer big. Yeah. Addie, listen. There's I think it's important not to not to engage in hero worship. And sometimes people like, you know, on Twitter, Stoney Stoney Bitzen. He's been kind of a simp for Jason Lowry in the past and people have been kind of critical of him for that. But, there's a little little bit of edge in his face with this one. It looks like Jason Lowry is for real and he's going to and I I don't know if this is official policy

48:16Rod Palmer or it's, David Bailey's idea but, one of the things Jason's trying to do is as treasury secretary is to incorporate regulation of of taxes using the IRS to regulate Bitcoin mining fees and transaction fees. Because

48:35Rod Palmer under this new regime, Proof of work, the ash rate that's going to be a part of America's national defense. And, of course, because Bitcoin is already one of the most powerful nation who's gonna be using this as their reserve currency. We're gonna need to protect this this this very fragile protocol. And the miners, especially Marathon, CleanSpark, Riot and and many others based here in The United States.

49:01Rod Palmer They're they're going to be taking very, you know, swift control. It looks like under this policy over the the defense military agencies, the branches of the military, like the army, the marines, the navy, the air force. So it's a very ambitious endeavor, but I I mean, this guy wrote an entire book about war in like three or four months. So I mean, if anybody can do it, he can.

49:27Richard Greaser Yeah. I I could see this administration doing some pretty interesting stuff. I mean, imagine I know a lot of people on the Republican side of things, they're they're all for this idea of privatizing Social Security, which is, a topic the Democrats run on

49:46Richard Greaser quite a bit. But imagine if the US government privatized Social Security and gave it to a company like MicroStrategy. So all these all these people would be compelled to to pay MicroStrategy dollars,

50:02Richard Greaser which then MicroStrategy converts to Bitcoin and holds for them until they retire and then does payout.

50:10Rod Palmer Yeah. I mean, this is what the blueprint for this is being built by David Bailey and Dylan LeClaire. They're they're converting all these publicly traded companies, treasuries, to Bitcoin.

50:23Rod Palmer And I think that we need a lot more of this type of investment in this strategy if we're gonna use if we're gonna replace Social Security with shares of MicroStrategy and shares in MetaPlanet. But it's if any, it it is maybe the only way we keep the system solved.

50:40Richard Greaser Yeah. Well, you know, I'm just glad that whatever this plan that Lowry has up his sleeve, because it seems like he has big things planned, they're probably gonna use

50:54Richard Greaser Coinbase as the custodian. And Coinbase is, you know, a good choice. They made it to the final four of the compliance pride tournament. That's pretty reputable.

51:06Rod Palmer Looking at looking at the business strategy moving forward with with Fold, I mean, I don't see any reason why we couldn't mail Fold cards to every senior citizen in The United States and pay their Social Security payouts straight to their Fold card. Maybe it wouldn't be Coinbase. Maybe it'll be Fold.

51:24Richard Greaser Yeah. So when when the the seniors go to, the casino to spend their Social Security checks on slots, they're gonna be getting Bitcoin rewards back for that spend.

51:41Rod Palmer That's that really change that changes. That puts the power of senior citizens' future in their hands back in their hands. A 100%.

51:50Richard Greaser Yeah. So, I mean, this is a big shift for The United States, having a treasury secretary. This Lowry's gonna be the first guy sitting in that position since Mnuchin, you know, years ago,

52:06Richard Greaser that has the ability to actually operate a smartphone. I think Yellen Yellen's 76 years old. I don't think she can figure out Gmail on her iPhone very well.

52:19Rod Palmer To shout out, a guy who claimed the term, mister Greg Foss. This will be the biggest risk chair that anybody has sat on,

52:28Richard Greaser especially a Bitcoiner, maybe ever? Well, I'm starting to get really tired. I think, he'd like 20 more cigarettes and boost me so I could buy some more cigarettes, guys. Listen, I need some coffee too. So I went on the tangent we went on the tangent of what the Bitcoin company is. I guess the next segment is to go through the, some of the stories we did this week and then get over the fountain boost. So maybe we should just condense it to one. Do you wanna go through your, 10 best excuses to give legal and HR departments for compliance violations?

53:01Rod Palmer Yeah. Absolutely. Absolutely. I put together an article that came out this week. The title is 10 best excuses to give legal and HR departments for compliance violations, and it's a pretty short article. So I'll just read through that right now and list the 10. So, you know, it happens to everyone. Sometimes despite your best efforts, you end up violating one of your companies, your Bitcoin company's compliance policies. But the grace of God is vast. The grace of your HR department may not be. So coming up with good excuses for compliant violations can be important.

53:32Rod Palmer So we live here to provide you with those 10. And the first of the 10 is I was trying to be extra productive, so I turned off my VPN. Everybody knows sometimes you turn on your VPN, it slows down your your Internet speed. It makes it hard to use Google, but having your VPN on is important if it's part of your company's compliance and privacy. It depends on the company you work for, but don't do it if it's supposed to be odd. Number two, I wanted to provide exceptional customer service. Sometimes we take KYC a little too far. We end up looking, up privileged customer data to give them top notch customer service.

54:07Rod Palmer But you can't do that. However, that name pressure manager. Some people might say, I just want to use my own node to verify not trust. Your node is great for you, but you have to know which node your company is using and which version that's on. Make sure it's compliant with all of the consensus rules that your company policy, the frequently asked questions section, say that it does. You have to make sure you use the right node, but if you need to if you need an excuse, people will usually buy them.

54:37Rod Palmer You know, I was making Bitcoin memes. Did you know the ability to create great bank memes is good for Bitcoin? Ease that one. I had to own some more pointers on X. Well, doing some Satoshis work. Have fun staying four, if you don't agree with this, thesis that we've already won.

54:56Rod Palmer Two factor authentication slows me down. That's true. If it's not, if it's not inconvenient, it's not secure, but it does hamper customer service experiences. Number seven, just stop ordinals with denial of servicing attacking the servers. Something you can do about that one. That's a great excuse. Sometimes the protesters or cyber attackers will make things difficult. Number eight,

55:20Rod Palmer us transacting adversarially. Acting with ink compliance a 100% of the time goes against game theory after all. Number nine, I wanted to make sure the product was thermodynamically sound. Again, your your manager probably won't even know what that means so that'll be they'll buy you some time if nothing else. Number 10, Bitcoin is pumping. Everybody can understand that one. When when we're expanding NGU, nobody's focusing at work so

55:47Rod Palmer use that one, but, you know, it depends on Bitcoin. It actually actually need pumping. Yeah. Feel free to use any of those excuses about if you're in trouble for a compliance violation, and they may get you out of a a write up or you get you out of trouble. Yeah. I

56:01Richard Greaser I have a comment on number 10. So I think it's important, like, if you're in really hot water to to take credit for the reason why Bitcoin is pumping and say, Bitcoin's pumping because I was schooling no coiners or because I was making dank memes.

56:16Rod Palmer Yeah. Put the put put some of those excuses together into one excuse and that'll it'll be more powerful.

56:22Richard Greaser Yeah. Or another maybe another good one is to put on there is that you're liking and amplifying Satoshi Action Fund's tweets.

56:33Rod Palmer That one's out of agreement for sure.

56:35Richard Greaser Yeah. I mean, there's so many there's so this is such a good primer to get started with. There's so many get out of jail free cards. You know, this is really gonna help people navigating the Bitcoin industry. And I think it's gonna be important for us to do more articles like this in the future. Like, we need to we need to have, like, the bugle's playbook

56:60Richard Greaser to operate in the Bitcoin industry in these companies successfully so that all these plebs going and and working for these companies for the first time know what to to do properly. Absolutely. Absolutely. Maybe we should put out

57:13Rod Palmer a a manual or an audio, some some sort of resource to help these companies. We don't have we have leaders who don't have credentials like we do.

57:22Richard Greaser This this might be a good book to collaborate on. We get it from a bunch of people. Each have little chapters.

57:32Rod Palmer It'd be nice to have Guy Swan read the audio version of that. Yeah.

57:36Richard Greaser I mean, imagine this could be our version of thank God for Bitcoin. We could get a bunch of, you know, superpowered, journalists and credentialed journalists together, to collaborate. We we just have to make sure that there's no Judas among us like like Breedlove because it's kind of unfortunate when you put out a book. Like, imagine if we had somebody

57:60Richard Greaser that cooperated with us on writing this book and then turned out to be a complete disaster. And they just, like, instead of using these these processes and and following the guidebook, they just did everything the the opposite way. Well,

58:17Rod Palmer it'd be it'd be beautiful. It'd be wonderful to have a book as successful as thank God for Bitcoin, but it would be a tragedy to to collaborate with somebody who ended up just besmirching everything we stood for with the social media behavior afterwards.

58:34Richard Greaser Yeah. I mean, maybe maybe we should write a guidebook to, like, how to properly collaborate with people and, like, the KYC process and due diligence done on them to ensure those types of events.

58:47Rod Palmer Value for value for dummies.

58:50Richard Greaser Oh. Yeah. 100%. Okay. Well, thank you for reading that. Great article. Let's go through the booths.

58:59Rod Palmer Alright. Number one. We got John from The Uncoverable Misfits with his boost of 69420¢. Really appreciate the support, John. That goes a long way for the cigarettes. He says, when Rod and Dick were in Podcuff land, let my people go. Lie so hard, they could not stand. Let my people go. That's a beautiful poem. That's a beautiful poem, John. Thank you.

59:23Richard Greaser That sounds like that should be a start to, a Bugle, music team song production. Yeah. Yeah. Hell, yeah. Alright. I'm gonna skip the next one because it was you and you didn't leave a comment. Save saber u d. Sabreud?

59:41Richard Greaser Is that how you say it?

59:44Rod Palmer That sounds right.

59:45Richard Greaser Yeah. Sabreud, boosted for 10,000 sad said, as a credentialed producer with a university degree in audio production, I can confirm that the bugle desperately needs a proper productive team. The signal you provide for non compliant big Bitcoiners all over the world

1:00:03Richard Greaser are way too important to be distributed by technical problems or disturbed by technical problems. A professional team with bachelor's degrees would never let credential journalists spend their time on reading user manuals. I hope this boost will be a small step towards being able to afford someone like me. Yeah. Well, thank you for for that. And, you know,

1:00:27Richard Greaser according to your profile picture, I don't think you're the type of producer we're looking because we're not just looking for competence. We're looking for an attractive woman.

1:00:36Rod Palmer Yeah. It that it's a non starter. But I appreciate really appreciate the, the willingness to contribute.

1:00:43Richard Greaser Yeah. Thanks for I mean, I agree. Like, you know, we'll get to a point where we're able to forward at least, like, six producers so that we can compete with what Bitcoin did. And, yeah, your boost definitely helps us get to there. Maybe the next booster is a good candidate for being a producer for us. What do you think, Ron?

1:01:05Rod Palmer Miss Hanlonah four twenty, at least that's 10,000 sass. And she said it's easier not to be a podcast parter when the hamsters aren't dancing sexy, especially Rod. Is he single? I'm ready to mingle with Rod, if you know what I mean. Yeah. Yeah. I, I appreciate the the nice boost. I have already been in touch with miss Halma in the DMs.

1:01:27Rod Palmer She might be coming down to Austin. We might be going on our first date to get some, some some beef at the barbecue pit. It's I'm I'm I'm I'm speechless. I I'm I'm a little nervous, but I'm excited. Yeah. I mean, I think miss Huddl will not

1:01:44Richard Greaser does a great job here of showing you Savor Rudd, how to shoot your shot as far as, like, trying to be a producer of the show and get paid to do it because yeah. And she she really went for it. Wow. So you guys are going on a date?

1:02:00Rod Palmer Yeah. I'm blushing right now. Well, it it's not official. She hasn't replied to my DM, but I asked her on the date, in the DMs.

1:02:09Richard Greaser Where where are you thinking about taking her?

1:02:13Rod Palmer There's this there's a there's a there's a few barbecue spots in Austin. I I thought about taking her to Franklin. That'd be a good first date. She doesn't like she if she if she owns anything but beef though,

1:02:25Richard Greaser silver. Yeah. Man, these these women that eat plants, it's you know, I I guess based on the amount of tobacco that I consume, I guess that makes me an herbivore. But I don't typically eat plants.

1:02:41Rod Palmer To add if you if you burn them completely well done first. Alright. Well, thank you, miss huddl not four twenty.

1:02:47Richard Greaser Our next booster is fundamentals from the Rock People Bitcoin podcast who says, getting the word out that we procure bids, and then he explains what bids means. Bitcoin influencer derangement syndrome, aka Bitcoin aid, is the most thermodynamically

1:03:08Richard Greaser sound value of credentialed journalists journalists can provide. Yeah, I agree. I mean, journalists are are great at informing the public accurate information

1:03:20Richard Greaser about, health health products like vaccines. And we did an absolute incredible job of informing our listeners about that, you know, recently when we were talking about vaccinating, people with Bitcoin Derangement Syndrome.

1:03:38Rod Palmer Yeah. Cheers to us. The next one we've got from our friends, Orange Mart, the, sponsors of this show, this particular episode, and they posted a link to the the clip of the song from, last week's episode, Sound of the Call. Rod and Bitt will catch it all. And that yeah. Thank thank you for the boost, Orange Mark. That that song has been playing in my head all week. It's it's a really great song. Yeah. I need to I I did this with the dollar

1:04:06Richard Greaser menu stuff, but I need to to take our intros and make it as a wave like album for people to go and hang out and listen to. So I think they'd be pretty popular. Like, I know one person was asking if they could use they're they're actually a DJ in the space that, you know, DJ for Bitcoin events

1:04:28Richard Greaser from time to time, but then they also DJ at, like, weddings and and stuff like that. And they asked to use our theme from last week in a high school prom that they're gonna be DJing Oh, yeah. In Pennsylvania.

1:04:43Rod Palmer Will be huge.

1:04:47Richard Greaser Yeah. Well, thank you, Orange Mart. Next one is from Cantillionaire for 5,000 sats. It said, boosting to remain compliant, I would never steal. Well, thank you for setting an example. Unfortunately, a lot of people do steal, from journalists.

1:05:06Richard Greaser And, you know, we're hoping that that will stop here in the near future. But, you know, it looks like people are taking our suggestions of noncompliance the wrong way, unfortunately

1:05:18Rod Palmer here. Yeah. Unfortunately. The next one we had, We All Eat, 2121, so 2,141 SATS, Comply pride,

1:05:28Rod Palmer non compliant bigwares, follow the rules. There's no punctuation in that one. So I'm not exactly sure what the interpretation of that is, but, I agree or I disagree depending on what you meant. Yeah. We we all eat some funny guy.

1:05:44Richard Greaser Big supporter of the show. Thank you for the boost. Can't really, interpret what you're saying either. Though I do understand like, I do a lot of my writing when I'm under the influence of alcohol. And so

1:06:01Richard Greaser when I get too influenced and the alcohol starts doing the writing for me, my punctuation kinda gets, bad. So maybe maybe We All Eat was having a a good time, or maybe We All Eat was just feeling lazy and didn't wanna spell check. But either way, thank you for the the boost. The next one is from Rev Huddle.

1:06:23Richard Greaser Who says, thank you for bringing the ethics back into journalism and showcasing the facts. Potential integrity is the clear path forward. Well, appreciate it, Rev Huddl.

1:06:37Richard Greaser We're doing our best to, kind of rehabilitate an industry that unfortunately doesn't really seem to be following ethics and standards, and they seem to be joining the CIA and their noncompliance

1:06:52Richard Greaser and supporting these noncompliant government agencies.

1:06:55Rod Palmer Yeah. I saw a great quote, said be the credentialed journalist you wish to see in the world and I took it literally. Yeah.
