Is this body TAF the holy grail for Bitcoin.
It definitely is. I completely agree with all of the comments

that meant earlier and I think the biggest thing is really the
comment around protection of consumers when you have a futures

ETF. Futures inherently trade at a premium to sport. Normally on
average around 5 percent and that can equate to a year and cost

of anywhere between 15 to 20 percent of a premium on that price.
And so when you think about protection of consumers you’re

actually not really getting the best product out there. And so
not just that you know there’s the 90 bit fee on these futures

backed ETF. And so I think even if you compare it to that
grayscale index fund with a 2 percent fee that is still cheaper

all in because it’s spot in the underlying then that future
based ETF.

So is this Holy Grail is approved. How does that change the
crypto market.

Great question. So a lot of this is supply and demand and so
right now we are continued to head into a supply crunch. And so

we have 21 million Bitcoin there being mined every minute every
second every hour. And so being able to lower that supply is

going to have an inherent impact on that price
as opposed to the futures price.

Now it was a relatively quiet week for Bitcoin theorem. On the
other hand really rallying. What do you make of that. Given how

expensive transactions are getting.
I think the largest thing coming out of NAFTA New York City in

the conference this week is really that crypto is just much
larger than finance and you have a ton of applications being

built on top of a theorem and coinciding with the theorem.
Specifically this week you have block chain gaming the media a

ton of investments being poured into metaverse. And so all of
that coincides with their real use cases outside of this

financed bucket that initially crypto is very much associated
with. And it’s almost as I assume you know in the early 1920s we

assumed that tech was this massive bubble. And then you had
fintech e-commerce and media break out into that. I really

expect crypto to do the same outside of just the initial
financial bucket. We had to start.

It’s also been a busy couple of weeks for the metaverse and I’m
curious what you think the role of crypto in the metaverse could

be.
It’s going to be really movement of assets and so I think you

know to today the way I think about it is how do you value your
time. And you know especially if you think about creators. How

do you value things that maybe computers can’t necessarily
generate or you know I think Microsoft CEO also mentioned how do

you value presence and human connection in a different way. And
so I think today being able to use block chain and crypto to

create interoperability and intrinsic rights as mentioned
previously is really going to be important to digitize all of

that in a way that’s more accessible and democratized.

  I can’t take the pain anymore. I went ahead and reinstated my stop-loss for ETH. What a bad decision, I think this guide is everything I need right now.

Why would you imvest into ETF and paid a management fee when you can invest into crypto directly, plus you can place your own crypto into wallet in the future. Am I missing something with this ETF nonsense?
