Transcript: Odell and Iran Attack NGU | Bugle Weekly Episode 4
0:00Richard Greaser Warning. Listeners may find the following podcast disturbing. Listener discretion is advised. If you are an individual that believes in the separation of money and state or believe in the elimination of government, stop listening now. This podcast is reserved only for mature individuals who will comply to the extent necessary in order to ensure NGU.
0:23Rod Palmer The Bugle is the world's premier news agency. They are the Bitcoin standard of news.
0:33Unknown This election is the most important election of our lifetime. For Bitcoin to win, first Bitcoin politicians like myself have to win to defeat Bitcoin politicians like Elizabeth Warren. In order for Bitcoin to win, you have to donate money to my campaign.
0:51Unknown These racist meme coins on Solana are out of control. That's why the work the Antitoxicity League is doing is so important.
0:58Unknown Bitcoin development is fake and gay. It does not support NGU. We should stop funding developers in order to ossify Bitcoin and ensure maximum n g u.
1:08Unknown The Bugle is easily the most important journalistic institution around today. They make up literally everything they write, and yet it is somehow all true.
1:18Rod Palmer Now you all better let the Bugle do the thinking for you. Life is too damn hard to do all the thinking yourself.
1:32Richard Greaser Alright, we're live. What's going on, Rod? How are you doing? Doing pretty great. I just had the time of my life with a bunch of other real plants at BitLocker this weekend. It was great seeing everybody there. That's awesome. I wasn't able to make it. What,
1:52Richard Greaser what all did you experience there? Oh, man. There was, everybody ate barbecue. They talked about how much they loved me and everybody ranked which barbecue place that they had in Austin was better. And if the first person mentioned like the place that they liked the most, the next person would be like, oh, well, actually, you gotta go to Franklin. It was just it was a lot of comparing,
2:18Richard Greaser Bitcoin's favorite beats. But there was some really good discussion about Bitcoin. Simply Bitcoin was there, the Bitcoin veterans were there, Swan was there, it was a pod call, Overload in a good way. It was awesome. Yeah. I saw that, that Neil Jacobs was there,
2:39Richard Greaser representing the SWANFluencer team. So that must have been really valuable. There must have been a lot of discussion around compliance and NGEU, which is good. Yeah, it was great. I mean, we only launched real plants
2:54Richard Greaser last week, but there's already several dozen real plaids and, you know, I think about a dozen of them were actually at at Bitlock Boom. They, it wasn't a scheduled event, but, Neil Jacobs, he took them off-site to a bar. He did some mentorship, for the Real Club. So I think there's really nobody out there better to be a mentor trying to elevate your influence in the Bitcoin community than Neil Jacobs, and in that environment, it was it was really a magical weekend.
3:25Richard Greaser Yeah, I would say he's easily in the top 10. And so so it sounds like at least a handful of real plebs got to skip the lines. Yeah, yeah. They were talking about it. They were talking about it. I was kind of there undercover. Nobody knew who I was just listening to what the real players were talking about. And,
3:46Richard Greaser I mean, it was like when you go to Disney World and you've got the kid in the wheelchair, the kid with the weird helmet For some reason, and they're at the turn of the line, they get to skip the line, the excitement on their face was, and it was kind of, it was hard, it was a, it was almost equal to what I saw on the faces of the boys at Big Block Boom. Now was there was there anybody in person signing books that they'd written?
4:12Richard Greaser Like somebody like, Safedine or Robert Breedlove or Jimmy Song? Oh, yeah. All three of them. I got my book signed.
4:24Richard Greaser Jimmy Song signed, his his coding force. He actually told me, so this is kind of breaking news, but, I think that, that's what a real journalist does is they break news early even if, the announcement officially is coming later. Jimmy Song is is teaming up with Zayler. And they're they're putting on a coding course for Bitcoin for developers. So it's a six week boot camp. And Judy Song, will be teaching everybody Python and they're going to create a Python Bitcoin
4:55Richard Greaser client which is the most compliant Bitcoin node the industry has ever seen. So, it's going to be awesome. And I think it's an hostile node. So, it's going to be quite controversial. That's awesome. Is it just going to be like
5:13Richard Greaser a different version of a Bitcoin Core node or is it going to have Lightning capabilities as well? It's going to be a perfect custodial Lightning integration using AMBOSS. So, it's gonna be the most compliant lightning network node that you could possibly use. So on top of that, it's it's going to be
5:33Richard Greaser in a sense a normal Bitcoin node, but it's gonna be kind of like knots. And this is gonna have extra layers of compliance on top of the, the Bitcoin software itself. It's kind of like a compliance fork. But yeah, that's what they're helping to complete. That's awesome. Well, we need more compliant products out there. It's hard it's difficult for people to try and
6:05Richard Greaser usher in NGU when a lot of the products make compliance difficult. And so the more the the more easily people are able to pay their taxes in Bitcoin and report things accurately to the IRS, more likely Bitcoin's gonna hit a 100 k. And so that's huge. Yeah. I think that, Samsung now Samsung now and, January 3, have been in talks to
6:33Richard Greaser invest into this, new co camp that Jimmy and Sailor are putting on. And they're they're they're talking about this thing called the compliance multiplier. So you mentioned it, Richard. You you take all of these different levels of compliance, reporting, custodial solutions and you put them in an compliance stack and you create this compliance multiplier. And a compliance multiplier according to Samsung is kind of theoretical, but it it may be actually the
7:03Richard Greaser cause of the guy to handle. So it's similar to a short squeeze that just ripped the price up, you know, he said to a $100,000, really quickly. But nobody knew really what my thought somebody thought that it might be the the ETFs. They thought that it might be, you know, Sailor continuing to buy at the top, but it seems like it might come from this this compliance multiplier. Wow. I I I think you're working on an article
7:37Richard Greaser explaining this concept, right? That is that is that is true. If you've noticed the people has been, hasn't put out as much written font heavily. We do all these new partnerships and all these new, relationships, but, we do have some really great work coming up in the in the next week or two And the comply side economics
7:58Richard Greaser research and the compliance multiplier, research, I think is really gonna blow your mind.
8:04Unknown This ad was paid for by the PodConf. The world is in crisis. Mental health issues are rising at epidemic levels. As a result, more and more people are showing symptoms of the mental health disorder, of believing that communism is a viable path forward.
8:27Unknown Fortunately, the bugle has a solution through a revolutionary new technology that is disrupting the world and has a power to cure mental health issues. This technology is called Number Go Up technology. NGU is the only thing that matters
8:45Unknown and can help us cure communism permanently. Individuals that support NGU are changing the very foundation of the reality that we live in. In order to access NGU, you must first put all your private identifying information into a website online in order to be compliant with the government. This will allow you to set up the ability to purchase reoccurring compliant stacks of NGU technology
9:12Unknown with your bank account or debit card. The future will be brighter because of NGU. Help us, Michael Sailor. You are our only hope.
9:24Richard Greaser Well, I think one of the reasons why we've been struggling to put out as much content is because we've been putting a lot more effort and resources into making sure we're complying properly, which does took take time and and money. There's a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes that is, you know, companies just can't be transparent about. They can't tell their customers. They can't tell their readers. But it it's all that work behind the scenes helps you be compliant. It ultimately helps your customers and your readers and your listeners also become compliant whether they want to or not.
10:03Richard Greaser Yeah. I mean, you don't want to wait until the you get subpoenaed by the FBI to give out the names of, like, your donors and sources and things like that. You wanna you wanna comply on the front side,
10:20Richard Greaser and give away information. Yeah. I mean, one of the best ways for your company to be successful and to help MGU even more is to just, like you said, not wait for a subpoena. You share all your customers' data and information with the government and the IRS without even being asked. You just send it to them. They're gonna ask for it anyway. So why, you know, why slow this process down? Just send it to them immediately and your customers, just put that in the small print in the, terms and services and and it'll just comply with that and not agree just so they can start buying Bitcoin on the platform. Wow. Yeah. I mean, it's great. And and this is one of the reasons why
11:04Richard Greaser as a listener to the podcast and a reader of the bugle, you should go apply to get the Real Plaid, verification from our our great sponsor, Podcove, because it can really streamline that process for you of of
11:21Richard Greaser helping us comply. You streamline it for yourself but also for us. Yeah. And make sure that you DM AdCom, the entire account.
11:34Richard Greaser And make sure that you get your RealPlab meme order mark, that you put on all your RealPlab memes so you're eligible for that, with your membership. If if they can get enough traction, I I could see Podkoff GIFs on Twitter rivaling
11:53Richard Greaser rivaling the, Stripe gifs on Twitter. That's the goal. I mean, if you think about it, Stripe memes, meme factory, those guys are kind of the, the ancestors were the influence and the inspiration for real ones anyways.
12:14Richard Greaser That's great. Yeah. We we do have a new sponsor that I just wanna get out of the way and talk about real quick, which is the, Anti Toxicity League. I don't think I mentioned them last week. But, yeah, they they sponsored the podcast in order to warn our listeners that we're toxic and to not take us seriously,
12:39Richard Greaser which I thought was kinda interesting. I don't know if you have any thoughts on that, Rob. I just think that we speak for ourselves and if people think we're toxic, then maybe they should be exposed to that.
12:55Richard Greaser But if you're too sensitive, you're a snowflake, then maybe that's a warning for you. Yeah, I think organizations like the ATL are very, very concerning
13:09Richard Greaser for the rights of journalists and for free speech. And by attacking free speech, they're actually not compliant with the law and with the constitution, therefore, are a noncompliant
13:24Richard Greaser organization. And so I would just warn people to be very careful and wary of groups like the ATL. Be wary of, Lawrence, people who are launching compliance and they're not actually complying themselves.
13:41Richard Greaser Yeah. Well, I mean, that's I I have this topic later on the list, but, how would you define the difference between someone who's truly compliant and somebody who's LARPing compliant? I think that, if you care about NGU,
14:02Richard Greaser instead of, you know, you have some people like on Nostra and they would like to they like to daydream or they like to think fondly about what it's like when NGU happens and they can have citadels, but they're not actually doing anything to bring it to life to make it happen. So it's, you know, there's a lot of being in there. There's the people who are putting in the proof of work to actually make NGEU happen. Yeah.
14:31Richard Greaser So, off the top of your head, who would you say are the biggest LARPs when it comes to compliance versus who are the biggest heroes actually complain? I'd say most like Gigi, Dell, all the people who are working on the node strip and free and open source node strip protocols are the biggest LARPs. Odell obviously has been creating a lot of waves in the community lately and I think you've got people like the opposite of that. You've got Michael Saylor, even though he's not a Bitcoin or Mark Cuban.
15:03Richard Greaser You've got several others who they are kind of writing the checks to putting their their money where their mouth is, so to speak. Yeah. Well, I think the the big
15:18Richard Greaser news stories this week, but thank you for the definition. The big news stories this week is that it seems like Odell has launched a coordinated strike with Iran against NGU.
15:36Richard Greaser Yeah. That we started with, Odell criticizing Michael Saylor's chosen method of compliance, the compliance that leads to NGU.
15:48Richard Greaser It was a lot of drama on the timelines this week. A lot of accusations, a lot of verification, or excuse me, trust without verification. Just kind of following the influencers lead.
16:01Richard Greaser But it saw some real problems with the price, I mean the price did quite a bit on some of this drama. And then on Saturday, Iran launches a ballistic
16:15Richard Greaser attack on NGU, nuking the price, so to speak. You know, almost 10%. I think at one point it was down to 60,000. And it's just a very non compliant response to
16:30Richard Greaser an attack by Israel. It was a pro NGU country. And it's, it almost seems coordinated. I don't want to say it's coordinated. I don't know, there's no evidence that I've seen that these two entities have coordinated together, Odell and the Islamic Republic Of Iran, but
16:51Richard Greaser it's a lot of coincidences if they're not. Yeah. Well, I I think it's pretty apparent. There's there's a lot of different individuals in the industry, Odell, Magoo,
17:07Richard Greaser you know, these these other ones that that promote anything remotely close to noncompliance, which are just the enemies of of number go up. And so that's why you you can tell these people who these people are pretty easily by looking at who they're attacking. And these these individuals are always attacking the greatest agents of number go up. They don't like Corey Clipston. They don't like Dennis Porter. They don't like David Bailey.
17:36Richard Greaser And they don't like Michael Sailor. It's out of a anti NGUist, ideology, it feels like. It feels like these people
17:52Richard Greaser It anything that makes NGU, they reflexively are contrarian about. It's almost like you don't even think about what they're doing. It's just a it's a refi. They're they're reactive. It's it's it's in politics. Right? It's just this, reactionary is the word I'm looking for.
18:15Richard Greaser Yeah. I mean, I I think what what should happen is that Odell should, get back on Twitter. He should stop posting about staying humble. He should start posting price predictions. Right. And,
18:33Richard Greaser and Iran needs to stop bombing Israel. Like, they just need to comply. And it makes no sense what they're doing and why they're not complying right now because they're driving the price down and that's bullshit. I don't think anybody likes to impose sanctions on people they disagree with. I think that's always the last resort and I think the sanctions are a very important tool
18:59Richard Greaser but, it just seems like we need more sanctions on a country like Iran if they're not going to comply and we need more sanctions on people watching these manipulative attacks from defensive protocols like no stirs. Like if you don't want to be in the public square participating in
19:20Richard Greaser productive discourse to NGU, then maybe you deserve sanctions, maybe that will help you learn. Well, this is what's so beneficial about platforms like Twitter as well as custodial Lightning solutions or even using Coinbase or BlackRock as layer twos is they can really correct the the bad speech,
19:44Richard Greaser by by sacrificing one person's financial freedom for the entire society's overall good.
19:56Richard Greaser Right. And I think a really battle that was won at the societal level in the, you know, early 90s over. It was over hip hop music and music in general. But they decided that they should put censorship on non compliant music. And it really created a huge market. So you could know based on a symbol on the CD case, like is this compliant or is this non compliant? I'm going to give my money to the compliant producers and the compliant graders. Are you talking about those content warnings they put on the corner of the CD cover?
20:35Richard Greaser Yes, exactly. Yeah. Yeah. The Einstein and the AMBOSS is doing that, AMBOSS is creating it, so you can look at any address, you can look at any wallet, you can look at any like lightning,
20:53Richard Greaser Like is this compliant or is this not compliant? This has a damp right here on it, it lets me know. And I can just boom, I don't wanna I don't wanna connect with that node. Well, I I think it'd be really cool to be able to walk around these conferences with the with the Apple vision, goggles and or whatever they're calling it, Apple class or Yeah.
21:17Richard Greaser Right. Whatever it is. And just completely blur out the companies that are compliant. Well, you you could get you could get warnings of who the non compliant individuals are, as well as being able to find the RealPlus verified individuals quicker. So that way that you can ensure that your,
21:38Richard Greaser your whatever scores are being tracked by, you know, compliant companies, make sure compliance score doesn't go down. Yeah. In the military, they have, what's called Blue Force Tracker. And no matter where you're at on the battlefield,
21:54Richard Greaser you can you can see the force tracker of where all the, your allies are. Yeah, that with your Google vision glass where it's like give me the blood tracker. Oh, describe my blood tracker, but webs, but true real bloods. Yeah.
22:12Richard Greaser Have you heard if, Real Plebs is going to have any integrations with the Orange Pill app? So that sounds like the, that's like if you're a real buddy, you should get, your Orange Pill app. You know, your membership is called free.
22:32Richard Greaser That's a that's a pretty good deal. I I haven't set up my Orange Pill app yet. Maybe I should. Yeah, if you use your Orange Pill app and you should be able to like scan your IRS and then,
22:46Richard Greaser you know, you remember, you have that information in your real plan. So you could just have that information sent to Orangeville app to them. Automatically log in. You see all the real plugs around you. Breaking breaking news that I just got, on my phone. Zelensky is pleading with Iran
23:07Richard Greaser to comply. Wow. Wow. I mean, Zelensky knows that compliance leads to, you know, more money and GE for you, if not for everybody else. Yeah.
23:23Richard Greaser Well, I tweeted a meme that they got a little bit of attraction this morning or attention this morning. But it was the the redhead Wojak woman.
23:37Richard Greaser Oh, yeah. And and I said, honey, have you filed your taxes yet so congress can send the money to Ukraine and Israel? That's right. That's right. I mean, is it If you if you ought to be as close as possible
23:56Richard Greaser to the money printing machine to the US Treasury, the, the answer is compliance. I mean, I don't think there's any argument there. Yeah. I mean, Iran's not getting any money. They're getting sanctioned. Russia's not getting any money. They're getting sanctioned. And the reason why is those two countries are noncompliant,
24:17Richard Greaser whereas Ukraine and Israel are some of the most compliant countries and, therefore, are getting a lot of money. And it's just it's real, really important,
24:33Richard Greaser that countries, like, realize that that resistance is futile and they should just, accept what the CIA wants to do. And, and, nobody's been more outspoken and clear about this than Peter Dodd.
24:51Richard Greaser Peter Todd is just like, if you're not gonna be compliant in Israel and and The United States, and they should just go in and take you out, so to speak. I mean, that is an extreme opinion, an extreme
25:06Richard Greaser example. But at the end of the day, it's what a lot of people are thinking. Well, I think it's a pretty solid opinion because at the end of the day, it the military
25:20Richard Greaser and intelligence agencies, their their goal is to keep us safe. And, you know, the the US military has never done anything remotely as bad as the Iranians have. Right. Exactly. And anything they did that was bad, it was for our safety. It was excusable.
25:48Richard Greaser Right. And I think that one of the points being made earlier on this on this podcast is the importance of self censorship and self compliance before, you know, somebody forces it upon
26:04Richard Greaser you. And I think that is really the of how you become a sovereign individual is self censorship and self compliance. So if you apply that to the nation state level, there is nobody that can make The United States comply. So
26:22Richard Greaser that their ability to do, to comply and to self restraint so well and so much better than every other country in history is what makes them the true sovereign nation that they are. A 100%. Yeah. Yeah. Beautiful. Yeah. We're gonna have some more,
26:47Richard Greaser coming out about Peter or feelings about Peter Todd over the next few weeks. There's some things that we definitely agree with him on, disagree with him on. And, like, one of the I've been working on something really big involving the security budget, that I think is gonna blow the community's minds. I don't wanna reveal it today. I think I'm gonna save it for next week to talk about. But,
27:15Richard Greaser I have a big disagreement with Peter Todd on that. Wanting to remove the hard cap is probably the biggest threat to NGU I've ever heard of. Right. And so it it's weird to see an individual like Peter Todd have these, like, conflicting
27:38Richard Greaser values where he supports compliance but he's very anti NGU? Yeah, I think Peter is one of those people who is very
27:50Richard Greaser good at seeing the short term or the the the high time preference path to to NGU, but he misses the long term, the long term vision for NGU.
28:08Unknown Have you ever considered dying for the politicians in Washington? Is paying all your taxes to Israel and Ukraine not enough for you, and you wanna leave a lasting mark on the world? Do you wanna pick your role in the military before getting drafted into World War three? The US army offers new recruits the ability to get vaccinated, learn important facts about gender, spread democracy across the world, and fight for politicians right to insider trade. Make sure to join up before we make you. By joining the army, you will be fighting to make the world safer for the ruling class. Becoming a part of the military industrial complex is one of the most secure ways to earn income during an economic crisis. Join the army instead of buying Bitcoin and think of yourself.
29:05Richard Greaser Yeah. Very, very high time preference from, Peter Todd. For sure. If safe a team would be very ashamed. But, I was before we get off the topic of Iran,
29:21Richard Greaser being the enemy then GU, you know, kind of tie this back to the Odell question is is this a coordinated attack? And I don't think it is a coordinated attack. I think there's what do you think it is going on in their minds of these, contrarians who really just, they're very resistful, resistant to compliance. What do you think causes that? I I think there's just
29:45Richard Greaser there's this religion that they're following that's an alternative religion based on alternative facts that are incorrect.
29:57Richard Greaser And so it's just there there's information asymmetry. And and people are being exposed to bad information. They might think that they're serving NGU. But in reality, they're they're serving individuals that wanna harm Bitcoin.
30:15Richard Greaser And, yeah, there there's general critical thinking that isn't being applied within the larger community, which is hurting the price.
30:27Richard Greaser Yeah, I think when you really make an emphasis or a focus on something that hurts NGU like privacy, it's like, who is this privacy helping? It's It's definitely helping people who are breaking law and people who are not compliant. Is it really helping you? If you can't think of why it's really helping you, I think maybe you should
30:49Richard Greaser wonder if it's helping everybody else who wants NDU. Well, it's not just yeah. I mean, that's a really good point. I mean, privacy is like, Dennis Porter says this all the time. We don't need less transparency in the community. We need more transparency. So anything privacy related is just hurting general
31:15Richard Greaser transparency. That's why sedation needed an open public ledger. It was it was for that reason. Yeah.
31:26Richard Greaser Bitcoin was never intended for anonymous transactions. It was it was, meant for compliant transactions. Exactly. The whole,
31:38Richard Greaser point of decentralization is that people can't use Bitcoin unless they're compliant with the protocol. It's an enforcement mechanism of the clients and people who try to deviate from that, they try to have these private, layers on top of these covenants or these things. It's like, that's why these all require softwares because they're not compliant with the original vision.
32:03Richard Greaser Yeah. I'm not I'm not I'm really not a big fan of MeetMe wallet, for multiple reasons. One of which is that they don't respect Marlboro's branding. They're trying to steal
32:17Richard Greaser from Marlboro from their IP their advertising IP. And then two, their focus on privacy and noncompliance is, alarming as well.
32:29Richard Greaser So there there's two big compliance things against them right off the bat. Yeah. If you if you are somebody who's willing to make trade offs, when it comes to NGU, then maybe mutiny is the wall for you. It's not the wall for me. What what's your preferred wallet?
32:50Richard Greaser I really like WalletSatoshi. However, they were forced to leave The United States. And, you know, there's ways around that that I could still use it, but, this is not compliant. So I, you know, lately I've been using Hash App.
33:08Richard Greaser Oh. Yeah. I mean, I I fought back and forth between the Coinbase app and, Aqua Wallet. And the reason why I like Aqua was good. Yeah. Aqua is great. Aqua,
33:22Richard Greaser you have native tether support, which is, the really, really important feature on the platform. One of the reasons I went cash out is just because, I enjoy the stability of US dollars. I just enjoy how reliable it is to send people cash that way. I use Bitcoin if I have to. But it's a league. I can lease that in The United States when I when I travel.
33:47Richard Greaser I definitely use Aqua so I can transfer Tether. Well, I think that, you know, Cash App is probably a better l two than than,
34:01Rod Palmer the Lightning Network is for Liquid.
34:05Richard Greaser I I think they're really innovative. Better. Yeah. It's definitely better. It's not even reliable. We talk about compliance being the scaling solution. If there's no more edited examples of this than Bitcoin Base,
34:21Richard Greaser Layer two and and Cash App. Yeah. I mean, I I hear from happy Coinbase customers all the time that they're able to access their funds and, that customer support is really good. Like, if you if you're
34:41Richard Greaser using a self custody wallet, where are you gonna get customer support from that's as good as Coinbase? Right. If you if you've been paying attention to the news, not only that, Coinbase does a fantastic job. It prevents their customers from buying the top. So whenever Bitcoin starts to like the price just starts to explode to the upside, Coinbase just shuts down. Like, they know that the the price is about to come back down and they don't they don't let you buy the top. So you are much less likely to, be in a position where you could write like a capital loss,
35:15Richard Greaser and you'll be able to pay your taxes much more easily knowing how much you owe. Well, yeah. I mean, I I got a letter from, Coinbase this week talking about paying my taxes, which was a very helpful reminder, and I appreciate it for them. That's the day is tomorrow, so you added Vicky Texas already. You better do that tomorrow. I know our listeners won't be doing that, but just in case you have somebody who's forgot. Yeah. I mean, there's that Tatum guy that likes to pretend like he doesn't pay taxes. He has that NFT,
35:53Rod Palmer bean. But we know he's compliant.
35:56Richard Greaser Yeah. Of course. I mean, you know, you know, put your face out there if you're not compliant. Right? No. No. I mean, you gotta you gotta watch out for, like, the the one thing that's really nice about the US Federal Government is, they take compliance very seriously, and they understand the dangers of noncompliance
36:21Richard Greaser that, there's a there's a collective good that they're looking out for. And so by allowing individuals like Tatum to make memes like that, it's hurting it's hurting the collective good.
36:38Richard Greaser And so they they do a good job of stopping individuals from doing stuff like that. For sure. I mean, you've got guys like, we've already written an article about it. But Mike Mike Dalfred, he's so and he my Dalfred makes money. He tells everybody about it, and it really helps the IRS and the government kind of enforce this collective good. They have this information. Yeah. I know Alex Jones this week was talking about
37:07Richard Greaser how the CIA helps to ensure compliance in in journalism, which That's true. Very I mean, we have never gotten a response from the CIA, but we send them every single word fully right and ask them if they would blast that with like a stamp of this
37:29Richard Greaser is everything and this is accurate, and according to the narrative. But, I think other companies should and other outlets did consider doing the same thing. The CIA should have some sort of system read much more easily. Do you think that they're unhappy with us for some reason? I like to just hope they were doing such a good job that, you know, no news is good news.
37:57Richard Greaser I'm a little bit worried that we've upset the CIA because I think that they have a lot of individuals on Reddit doing moderation for them in the Bitcoin subreddit. I'm pretty sure it's directly
38:14Richard Greaser moderated by the CIA. And that might be part of the reason why all our posts get taken off of, that platform. Yeah. That's actually a pretty good theory. I've heard from several sources in the industry that the CIA has at least, four or five people on that moderation form.
38:38Richard Greaser Well, I think the one thing I'd like to applaud this TIA on is that they're using their resources to make platforms like rBitcoin r slash Bitcoin a good place. But I wish that they would they would see our efforts to comply and reward us for it. We we have been, but we're tied in compliance. And I think that
39:03Richard Greaser the fruits of our labor should be apparent by now. Yeah. I mean, I I spent a lot of time blacklisting, uncompliant addresses so that they couldn't send us funds. Yeah. And I've and I've I've I've blacklisted so many noncompliant
39:22Richard Greaser nodes, directly from my node so they can't connect with me. So I my node should be wholly of actifiable, should be passing through. Yeah. So I think it's really important as,
39:37Richard Greaser podcasters and journalists to set a good example for our listeners and readers. And, I think the one step the first step that we could take in setting a good example is blacklisting
39:50Richard Greaser all the Bitcoiners in Iran for their country's noncompliance with Israel. Yeah. It would be really cool
40:01Richard Greaser with SWIFT network to help identify some of these IP addresses and node addresses that are not compliant. So if anybody knows how to help that ship, below, let us know. Well, I think by working with Coinbase and chain analysis, we should,
40:20Richard Greaser we should have that mostly figured out here pretty soon. But, yeah, it's really that's good news. Yeah. I mean, it's a it's a serious issue that, countries are not complying with, Israel being the, the sole democracy
40:37Richard Greaser in the Middle East. Right. And I think that the black was Hamas and to a large extent Russia, I think Iran definitely needs to be included in that list. I think more people should, but I think that's a good start. There there's not very many people in The US that seem to understand the grave and present danger, which is Iran. You know, Iran is not a democracy. They don't have free and fair elections.
41:05Richard Greaser And, Israel does. Israel does, yeah. Yeah. Israel is it's it's very clear to see good versus evil here. Democracy versus non democracy. I think, I mean, the good news is that,
41:25Richard Greaser it sounds like Lindsey Graham is on the ground preparing the invasion of Iran. And so there's gonna be some accountability, coming their way. Yeah. It's, it's equal to see, like, the Bitcoin veterans,
41:42Richard Greaser lead the charge for people who maybe wanna go either volunteer to go back into the military or just go over there as mercenaries doubt might have brand GU. I know that, another Bitcoin, positive, friendly person who's also a very talented veteran,
42:01Richard Greaser Dan Crenshaw was over there with Lindsey Graham on the ground. Unfortunately, one of the drones actually did make it into Israel, and they hit and hit an outpost, because, Dan Crenshaw unfortunately did not steal his real mission due to his loss, died from earlier battles against noncompliance.
42:20Richard Greaser So Dan Dan Crenshaw died in Israel due to Iranian drumstick? That's what I saw on on on Twitter. Yeah. Really sad. He missed it. Wow. Do you think that Mario Navalny covered that in the Twitter spaces?
42:37Richard Greaser Yeah. That's actually where I heard the the news. In fact, it was, breaking spaces by Mario. Man, he does such a good job as a journalist. Yeah. I mean, there's a lot of journalists out there who might be spooks and he is not one of them. Definitely not. He he understands the importance of democracy
42:56Richard Greaser and the importance of compliance. Big big shout out to Mario. All the good news he's doing. We love yeah. We'd love to have you on the show, Mario. Yeah. But, yeah, I'm trying to think of I I should have picked out some headlines. We we normally do this every week. So I guess we should look at the headlines of last week. Yeah. That's wonderful.
43:23Richard Greaser Did you oh, well, there was this great story submitted by, Benjamin Bitcoin. Oh. So had you heard of this extremist group called the Havening, before they, executed,
43:39Richard Greaser Charlie, Spears? No. I I I had heard of them. I thought it was a conspiracy theory, to be quite honest with you. I thought it was, like, one of those misinformation tropes they hear on social media, but the the news of the the beheading really, really shocked me.
44:02Unknown This podcast is brought to you by generous contributions from the Anti Toxicity League, building a less toxic world. Toxicity is a major problem in the cryptocurrency community. Fortunately, a new organization is stepping up to combat serious issues of disrespect
44:21Unknown towards companies, media organizations, and influencers. The individuals at the bugle are the same people who have organized and participated in countless events on Twitter that have banned the flames of toxicity
44:36Unknown and celebrated misinformation towards our entire cryptocurrency community. This is who they are. Our mission is to eradicate toxicity from the cryptocurrency
44:47Unknown communities. We define toxicity broadly, including harassment, misinformation, and exclusionary
44:54Unknown practices that can stifle discussion and innovation. Through education, community building, and direct engagement, we strive to create a more harmonious environment that respects and values the contributions of all its members.
45:20Richard Greaser Yeah. I mean, there there's all these protest groups surrounding Bitcoin. So apparently, they were upset at Bitcoin miners, for mining blocks too quickly and changing the targeted, halving date from the twentieth to the nineteenth.
45:39Richard Greaser And that's why they executed Charlie because he's a Bitcoin miner. Yeah. And if I was if I was somebody who was overclocking my miners right now, and updating that target date for the halving, I would I'd be looking over my shoulder. I think that's a pretty powerful message. I mean, this this group probably has an invested interest in making sure that the halving does happen on the twentieth. I I can't see why they would get so upset
46:10Richard Greaser otherwise. I I heard they might be in the student runs. Oh, I see. And they want they wanna be able to mid runs on 04/20 with the, with the the with the rear sat. No, that's just come the day the day after. So, yeah, I mean, this brings up an inter a potential interesting
46:38Richard Greaser development in the, the filter wars that are happening right now. Yeah. Do you think that that it was an Ordinal's group that is beheading,
46:51Richard Greaser somebody who's a filter supporter? That's what it sounds like. Fascination big time. But it wouldn't make any sense for them to, execute Charlie because Charlie's a big,
47:07Richard Greaser a big, proponent of ordinals. Is he a larp or is he legitimate? I think he's a legitimate supporter of Wortmold. Interesting. So my
47:21Richard Greaser spidey sense would say that this might be a setup, a psyop, by the Filterscrowd. They do seem like the more radical group.
47:31Rod Palmer Wow.
47:34Richard Greaser Yeah, I mean, there's been a lot of speculations of other other groups, committing acts of terrorism recently at the behest of, or other organizations or entities. So, yeah, I mean, for
47:50Richard Greaser the Fix the Filters group to be funding terrorist organizations that are beheading Bitcoin miners is pretty alarming to me. We have to research that one a little bit deeper because back end activity could really disrupt the space. There could be a park or something like that.
48:15Richard Greaser I mean, I could see Donald Trump getting elected and and really taking these, these groups to task. I mean, if you thought January 6 was bad, can you imagine what the Fitts that the Vilchurch group would do if they didn't, you know, they lost some sort of consensus battle? Some vote? Yeah. Something to watch. Definitely something to watch.
48:42Richard Greaser But, yeah, the other article I wanted to highlight was, so you and I have been branching out, talking a little bit more about economics. Last week's episode, we talked about comply side economics one zero one. And, this week, I I watched an episode kinda or not an episode. I I wrote an article. What am I talking about?
49:08Richard Greaser Following up on last week's episode discussing the failures of Austrian economics. Right. That's right. That was that was one of the best articles I read this week of in any in any media, but I think it's a tough pill to swallow for a lot of people. Yeah. I mean, there's
49:30Richard Greaser there's these truths, you know. We have to get back to first principles to, start at truth or to find the truth on these different topics. And there's a lot of podcasters out there that say that they're practicing first principles, but they're actually starting at, like, the second or third principle,
49:49Richard Greaser which is why they get these completely silly come to these silly conclusions that John Maynard Keynes was a bad guy and not a good economist. One of the biggest allies to NGO that has ever lived is John Maynard Keynes. I just people who have dulled or to trash his name just need to reel, like,
50:11Richard Greaser put some respect on that man's name. Yeah. I mean, I think I think the problem with most Austrian economists is that they they think that noncompliance and and the use of,
50:26Richard Greaser Gold Rocks is somehow a successful strategy, when they should be buying digital money and complying. One of the craziest things to me is the irony. Obviously, the Austrian economics is now divorced from
50:44Richard Greaser the literal government that runs Austria now. If you looked at like news during COVID, like the most compliant country was Austria. I mean, like you could see videos from Sydney and from other like the capital by the Sydney Opera House, right? And the protesters were just getting beaten by the police because the police wanted them to comply. And it's like Austria used to be, they used to live by
51:15Richard Greaser these examples and they're just so divorced from their economics now. Yeah, I mean, you know it's bad when the country that invented a school of economics doesn't follow it whatsoever. It's just a it's a it's a bad idea that's spread online
51:32Richard Greaser in Internet communities. A fringe a fringe idea that's that's probably being assisted by Russian bots to dissuade people, from understanding that John Maynard Keynes and his school of economics
51:47Richard Greaser is the only way to really get n NGU going. And this this is a good segue. I I did another economics article on how Reagan, Nixon and Kissinger knew that only NGU could defeat communism. And they were right. A lot of people doubted them. I mean, this is maybe my favorite excerpt here. It says mental hospitals were built to commit potential communists in order to sequester them and ensure the safety of a broader society. Where he can change this trend by defunding mental hospitals, sending potential communists out of the streets as he knew that MGU would cure the mental illness.
52:29Richard Greaser Yeah. And it's a problem that in this week in particular. So the UFC really Dana White needs to get his fighters on under control because they're very
52:43Richard Greaser they they're very non compliant. And there was one fighter this week that was talking about Austrian economics after he won his fight. Yeah, he told people to read Mises. Yeah. You you shouldn't read Mises.
52:60Richard Greaser You should read Stephanie Kelton. You should read, who are some other good? I think that I think you could stop there. I think once you read Kelton, you read about MMT. Actually,
53:16Richard Greaser who's the guy, the New York Times guy that won the Nobel Prize. He writes to the New York Times and blanking on his name. Cregman, Paul Krugman. Read Cregman, read Stephanie Colton. That is a caveat if you care about NGU because in other words, he supports NGU better than those two economists. And Paul Krugman won a Nobel Prize for his economics. So you know that he's legit. Yeah. I mean he has 4,500,000 Twitter followers.
53:47Richard Greaser How many Twitter followers does Ludwig von Mises have? Exactly. Friedrich Mayhaic. Or, yeah, Marie von Rothbard has zero Twitter followers as well. So he's pretty much a useless
54:07Richard Greaser voice when it comes to economics. Joseph Stiglitz is another great example that you can read. Rielle Rubini is a great example. And star was Stephanie Kelton. Kel Kelton's definitely one of the foundations
54:23Richard Greaser for, the modern modern world with how economics work today. Yeah. She understands the the digital age. Yeah. Very European approach, which is the, you know, Europe Europe is kinda like the that's where economics was invented.
54:40Richard Greaser So, you know, it's they have the best economics. Except for Austrian economics? Exactly. Well, that's why they lost the wars to the rest of Europe. Yeah. Yeah. The prevailing economics
54:54Richard Greaser is, it's embodied by the victors because to win a war, you have to have good, a good economy, happening behind the scene. Yeah, I mean, one of the best,
55:09Richard Greaser one of the best living economists in Europe is Thomas Piketty. So you can read French economist Thomas Piketty. That's another huge ally to NGU. NGU. It's great to have such, such a strong academic focus on
55:28Richard Greaser NGU globally in the economics community. A true, viewed approach to NGU is is the way to go. Definitely. So we mentioned,
55:40Richard Greaser Sailor and Odell a bit earlier, but I think this probably oh, wait. Should do you wanna do Sailor and Odell, or or do you wanna talk about the fountain shout outs first? I realized we forgot to do the fountain shout outs. He's a fountain shout outs at the end. That sounds like something to do at the end. Okay. Cool.
56:05Richard Greaser So Odell was, spreading some dangerous misinformation about Michael Saylor this week. He was attacking MGU. He was stomping his feet. He's throwing tantrums,
56:19Richard Greaser making a fool of himself. And he was doing it on Noster. And so the way that I saw it was I saw a bunch of screenshots of his Noster posts on Twitter. Yeah. I I I don't know what the strategy is or what the, motivation is, but I think there's something to be said about somebody as popular and as big of an influencer as Odell
56:44Richard Greaser is used to a lot of attention, a lot of feedback telling him that his posts, that his ideas are good, they're correct. He's just not getting them at the same level. He knows, Drew, and I think that's screwing with his head a little bit. And so he's trying to to lash out at somebody like one of the most friendly NGO people, the Bitcoin community knows, to Michael Saylor, trying to besmirch his good name just so he can like feel good about himself and get that notoriety, get that attention, get that drama on the timeline.
57:19Richard Greaser Yeah. So a lot of people read his post and didn't do any critical thinking. Right? Because what what they should have done right after seeing his post
57:34Richard Greaser was go over and look at Michael Sailor's Twitter to see what Michael Sailor was saying and telling people to think. I mean, people think that Gnostr is like this, that's where all the signal is, that there's no there's no span, there's no engagement forming Gnostr. I think Odell kind of proves that there is, that you can't just trust everything you will see on Gnostr as being correct information. You have to verify it. So
58:07Richard Greaser I'm on Michael Saylor's Twitter right now. And so he's doing tweets saying to stay humble and stack that. And he's, he's preaching the message with NGU, and that's somehow Gil used to preach, but, you know, Odell fell around his ways,
58:27Richard Greaser and Sailor just stole the meme and just kept it going. I I think the meme hits harder when Sailor tweets it than when Odell tweets it. I mean, this this one It'd be easier for Odell to stay humble. I mean, he's not he's not Michael Sailor. Selected ourselves. Yeah. We we know that Saylor's staying humble. We know that, he's working really hard to do it. He's got he's got a lot of people around him holding him accountable,
58:55Richard Greaser telling him to, you know, focus on, on the long term and focus on NGU. Right. So he's doing a good job. Yeah. If you're if you're at a party and no girl is coming up to you and and asking you to have a drink with her and and maybe
59:13Richard Greaser go somewhere private. It's easy for you to say no. It's easy for you to stay humble. But if you're at a party, you have people like lentils and they wanna, like, pull you to the side and then have a drink and pick your bra pick your brain. And you but you're married. It always gets harder to do that when you have those temptations. Yeah. I mean, Sailor Sailor looks like his his tweet like, the
59:40Richard Greaser the level of effort behind them has gone down, but the engagement's still really strong. It looks like Sailor has, he's he's learned how to use AI to create really, really clever art. What makes you think? There there are a couple podcast clips and conference clips
1:00:04Richard Greaser in between the pictures of AI art that he's tweeting. I mean, I wanna I wanna applaud him on his originality. Like, I know a lot of individuals individuals, when they get to his size on Twitter,
1:00:22Richard Greaser They just wanna, like, steal clubs, beams, and and tweets and pictures and retweet them. And and Sailor, has not misappropriated any, original content other than Odell's Stay Humble and StackSats.
1:00:39Richard Greaser And so I'd give him, like, an A plus on, original content because using AI pictures on Twitter is very unique and original. Is nobody else doing it? At least the same way?
1:00:58Richard Greaser No. It's good to yeah, it's good to see Sailor. It looks like he's just kinda letting it, roll off his shoulder and he's got his his eyes on the larger mission. And while, Odell's trying to stir up FUD, Sailor's just trying to pump the price. What about load time preference?
1:01:18Richard Greaser That Saylor has load time preference. Odell's just I I don't know what it is. I mean, maybe he he drew a line in the sand, got off of Twitter, and has been wanting all the engagement and isn't getting it on Noster, and so he's driving controversy. That's the only thing I could think about.
1:01:39Richard Greaser Yeah. And if if you're listening to this Marty Bennett, I would just pull out a little pull out those side and have a conversation with them and get them on. Yeah. And I'm back on the right team. Well, it's probably a good time, wrap up this subject and and go on to the fountain boost.
1:02:03Richard Greaser Sounds good. I'll blast through these real quick. So Southside boosted us for 21,000 compliance, tokens and said, stay compliant, stack custodial SATs. Big shout out to Southside. Appreciate it. Thank you for helping us be compliant.
1:02:24Richard Greaser Our good friend John said, comply to skip the line. What a feature. Sign me up. So, yeah, John, John's talking about, the importance of getting signed up on Real Club verification with PodConf. And,
1:02:42Richard Greaser You know what, John? Thanks thanks for that that boost. You get your next month of, Real Club membership for free on us. Yeah. Yeah. We we we need the plebs to, to go out there and and spread the good news of, Real Club and and the benefits of it. We want we want everybody that's on looking unhappy and sad waiting in line, to get in bit block boom
1:03:11Richard Greaser to to see people like Rod and people like John that have complied early, skip the line and, get preferred entrance into the conferences. Yeah. We we spoke a little bit earlier about having good mentorship from Neil Jacobs. I think that it would be just a real boost to the Real Pla community to have,
1:03:32Richard Greaser guys like from podcast or from Ungover Mobile Spitz, being Real Plaists and and really leading the way and being a good example. Yeah. I'd I'd also like to see podcasters like Guy Swan, Stefan Lavera.
1:03:50Richard Greaser I I know Stefan Lavera probably has his real plaid verification. I know he hates waiting in line at conferences. Right? That's right. He does. I mean, he's always at the promo line, so Nashville real plan. Steven. Good job, Steven. And then, Rob, okay. Next message. Well, thanks, John. Really appreciate you.
1:04:14Richard Greaser Next message is from Rob One Ham, Rob Hamilton over at, Anchor Watch, the Anchor Insurance, which is I I bet the premiums are are really, going up on all these,
1:04:33Richard Greaser on all these anchor insurance policies because of how many ship accidents there are recently? Yeah, congratulations, Rob. Spray the boost for 5,000 sets when the money starts rolling in from high premiums,
1:04:50Richard Greaser maybe double that. That boost test would be nice. Yeah. But he said, I made sure to use a custodial lightning wallet to send this boost, Keep calm and comply on. So
1:05:05Richard Greaser Well, love to see that. The the custodial lightning is is the best way to support us. We we have so many ways to receive it custodially to custodially. So there's there's never one there should never be a question of lack of compliance on our end when you're donating to us. It's the cheapest and fastest way to use Bitcoin.
1:05:29Richard Greaser And the most stable. And the most stable? Well, I mean, it it could be arguable that buying the ETFs is a little bit more
1:05:42Richard Greaser cheap and stable, right? I see. But at the end of the day, you can buy and sell the ETF on the weekend, which again use custodial lighting 20 fourseven. Well, I hope they change that because I think it'd be better
1:06:01Richard Greaser for compliance reasons if transactions were limited to business hours. And I know we've talked about this before. Yeah, yeah. I think that there's a lot of opportunity for miners, especially no miners to unionize, especially with FPPS payouts. You could get paid a living hash rate, hash
1:06:25Richard Greaser reward, for forty hours a week. Nobody who hashes for forty hours a week should live in poverty. That's a really good point. The last shout out for boost that we got was, Kirk, who boosted us for 500 stats and said, I only listen to the intros, and it's still somehow one of the best podcasts on my feet.
1:06:52Richard Greaser Well, you should probably listen to the full podcast, and then you would, get the benefits of our just top notch journalistic opinions and insights
1:07:09Richard Greaser and not show yourself. Yeah, don't sell yourself short. This is the whole thing. It will be worth your time. Trust us. Yeah. Well, I hope that,
1:07:23Richard Greaser that the enforcers, the US military and, and such can really get Iran into compliance this week and that we're gonna see the price pump as a result. Yeah. If you see that goddamn, there's no Compliance multiplier is working. And before we let you guys go,
1:07:44Richard Greaser we want to give you just a real good example, to live by in compliance. And earlier today, Mark Cuban tweeted that in response, somebody said, hey, Mark, just wondering if you or your corporations pay more than the required taxes in order to pay your fair share. Thanks so much. It's 90 and newer. And Mark had a great response.
1:08:08Richard Greaser Mark said, I pay what I owe. Tomorrow, I will wire transfer to the IRS $288,000,000. This country has done so much for me. I've tried to pay my taxes every single year. Tag a former president that you know who doesn't. And that's, you know, that's just huge. A huge date to to Trump who's a tax evader. But, but Cuban, you know, just being extremely compliant, trying to pay his taxes. That's what you wanna see, try to live that way.
1:08:40Richard Greaser Do you think he was talking about Donald Trump or you think he wanted people to tag Andrew Jackson? You know what? That would make sense too. There's been multiple presidents before that that would fit that tag. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, I Yeah.
1:09:03Richard Greaser I guess that kinda like shows a lot of people don't know their history on these subjects. But I I doubt that he probably he probably met Trump. I doubt he was referring to Andrew Jackson. If you're listening to this, Mark, please clarify who you meant. Yeah.
1:09:25Richard Greaser Clarify with the foundry, so that's probably the best way to do it. There you go. We will absolutely report whatever profit we come to from your from your business to the IRS. So we'll we will pay taxes double. Awesome. Well, I think that kinda wraps up the episode for the week. Do you do you have any other final thoughts, Rod? No. It's just been a pleasure complying with everybody this week, and we can't wait to do it again next week. We're gonna we're gonna take things
1:09:59Richard Greaser to a whole new level of compliance. One of the new policies that we put in place is that we're gonna make all our podcast guests k y c with us before coming on the podcast. I think that's a that's a good form of of compliance to make sure that, if any dangerous thoughts are spread on here, we have all their KYC
1:10:23Richard Greaser information to hold them accountable and to ensure max compliance to generally prevent that. Yeah. We'll be we'll be partnering with a really special company to help us do that, so stay tuned. Yeah. Big big things on the horizon. We're building even though we're in the beginnings of a bull market. We're still building. And, yeah. Thanks for tuning in this week.
1:10:49Unknown Thanks for tuning in to this week's episode of the Bugle Weekly. We hope you gained something valuable and gave your brain a rest, letting us do the thinking for you. On this week's episode of the groundbreaking Bugle podcast, Rod and Dick discussed how Matt O'Dell and the country of Iran are trying to prevent NGU, the breaking news stories, and the fountain boosts. Odell and Iran should comply to ensure maximum NGU.
1:11:13Unknown There is nothing more important than pumping the price of Bitcoin. It's never too late to start complying. Make sure to share this show far and wide, and please consider donating cigarette money to us to keep the show going. Thanks for tuning in, and we will see you next week.
1:11:29Unknown The Bugle is easily the most important journalistic institution around today. They make up literally everything they write, and yet it is somehow all true.
1:11:39Rod Palmer Now you all better let the bugle do the thinking for you. Life is too damn hard to do all the thinking yourself.
