00:00I think with the crypto markets like especially like Bitcoin and Ethereum and the altcoins like
00:04sentiment changes can show up more dramatically just because there aren't as many
00:08like institutional players involved and you know that that kind of shows up as dramatic swings and
00:14then that bleeds over into equities that are linked to the crypto markets. You know I started
00:19out covering Bitcoin as kind of not a joke but as kind of and a cultural exercise like 12 or 13
00:27years ago by only using bitcoins instead of dollars for my daily transactions over a couple
00:33of weeks. It was pretty fun but back then the whole culture we would like meet in bars downtown and
00:39everything was you know libertarian or kind of a revolutionary kind of feeling. A lot of it was
00:48offline. That has shifted so much to the sort of corporate based you know Washington centered
00:56we want to be regulated ethos in crypto. Everything is flipped 100%. Yeah I mean Bitcoin people who
01:05really believe in it Bitcoin maxis want it to be used for everyday transactions but one of the issues
01:10is like the price is volatile so you don't want to pay for something today and then you know the
01:14Bitcoin is worth a lot more and you overpaid for it. So that's kind of where like stable coins came
01:18into play because they're going to be worth today what they are tomorrow so you can kind of trust it
01:22as an everyday currency.
