These are freaking arrows.
They are freaking arrows.
And you can pull these out.
If one of your enemies comes to your suite in Dubai in the middle of the night,
just know--
Hey, guys.
Welcome to BitBoy Crypto!
My name is Ben.
Welcome to my suite in Dubai.
That's right. Oh!
A staircase.
What is-- I want to show you guys something.
A lot of people have come against me.
A lot of people I consider to be enemies.
You guys know I love creating enemies.
Well, any man knows that if you make enemies, you always have to be prepared to fight.
Look at this staircase.
I want to show you guys.
Come here. Come here.
We're going to talk about BEN Coin. Chill.
Come here. Look at these.
Look at this.
These are freaking arrows.
They are freaking arrows.
And you can pull these out.
If one of your enemies come to your suite in Dubai in the middle of night,
just know you can take an arrow off--
is that real weird?
An arrow off the staircase.
And, well, what happens from there?
I think you guys know.
Everything is a little bit extra.
So I'm wearing my extra sweet sunglasses today.
Look. We have a lot going on right now.
A lot going on in the world of crypto.
All of a sudden, I go to Dubai, and everything flips bullish.
Isn't that amazing?
All it took was me getting out of America.
Or is it me coming to Dubai?
I'm not sure which it is.
However, Bitcoin is crushing it today.
Went above $28K.
Slightly came back down a little bit.
We got this Bitcoin ETF news around BlackRock partnering with Coinbase I think it was.
A lot of people are saying that what we're seeing right now is that
TradFi is now marking the bottom.
You know, TradFi is coming into the space.
And basically what they were doing is just trying to convince you to sell over the last few weeks.
A lot of you did.
So I told you with the Binance news, I told you with the Coinbase news,
I said don't freaking panic.
There's no reason to panic.
All you've got to do is just stay calm and HODL through it.
If you need to make some trades, make some trades,
but don't get out of positions.
It's so stupid to do that.
That's the difference between those of us that win in this space continually
over and over and over again and the people that lose
is they just panic sell when there's bad news.
That's not a winning strategy.
It never has been.
So Bitcoin is obviously doing pretty well today.
The rest of the market is moving a little bit.
So let's talk about what's been going on here in Dubai.
What is going on here?
What have we done today?
We definitely had a lot of meetings today, got a lot more later this week.
Going to Abu Dhabi on Thursday.
Meet with some couple advisors, potential advisors.
One I'm pretty is going to be an advisor.
One we're still going to be doing interviews on.
And, you know, some really interesting things have started coming out of these meetings.
I want to talk about at the end of this video,
I want to talk about what some people in my team have discovered
that could be why the price,
which, you know, I can't promise you price is going to go up,
but why has it been stagnant?
And we've got some really interesting insight on that.
So, first of all, we met with a representative from the royal family today.
We do have also an--
supposed to be having another meeting with someone directly from the royal family.
Now, we got some video footage of this meeting today,
but we had to do it not because of necessarily the meeting itself,
but the hotel wasn't really too keen on us having cameras,
so we got some look--
you're going to see on a vlog later this week or next week
some of the talks that we're having
and some of the meetings where we can record.
Some of this is confidential stuff, so we can't say everything.
But I will tell you this.
We met with the representative of the royal family.
There seemed to be a lot of interest in having me move my business over here.
A lot of benefits to that for all parties involved.
Now, am I thinking about it?
Yeah, of course, I'm thinking about it.
Do I want to leave America?
No, I don't want to leave America.
If I did leave America, where do I want to go?
This is the place here.
I mean, I can wear gold glasses and I don't even look weird. Okay?
So a lot of potential stuff,
but later on came back to us from the meeting,
wants to maybe have a second meeting or at least wants to pursue some conversations
specifically about BEN Coin.
Now, some of these meetings we set up are about BEN Coin.
Some are about possibly what it's like to live here in Dubai.
Some are us just meeting people and getting connections over here.
But one of the ideas that was brought up,
and this is something we're hearing from a lot of different potential partners
that we're talking to,
is they wanted to do their own coin.
But they're looking at BEN Coin,
and they're saying,
"He's already got a platform."
"This is something that's going to be universally good for crypto causing crypto adoption."
And they're saying to themselves,
"Why don't we just partner and use BEN Coin?"
So there is some interest in us potentially having BEN Coin
be the coin of a few different ecosystems.
And one of those could be potentially a virtual clinic here in UAE.
So definitely some interesting things.
And my thing is, when you meet with somebody very important,
and they come back to you very quickly,
what does that tell you?
What does that tell you when they come back very quickly?
The first conversation we had was about
what it would be like to move over here,
moving my funds over here,
how much that would cost.
It was a money-centric conversation.
The second conversation,
the second thing that was brought up is purely what's in the best interest of all parties involved.
It's not necessarily,
"Hey, let's go and move you out here. Let's get some money. Let's do this."
So very, very, very interesting.
Hopefully, we get to pursue that conversation a little bit more this week.
I said we do have another meeting potentially.
The other one's not guaranteed, but it's on the schedule,
so we'll see what happens.
I don't like to say it's definitely going to happen because, you know, people don't show up sometimes.
People are important.
Plans change.
We have another meeting later this week with someone from the royal family.
So we're very interested in getting involved with the royal family here.
Royal family in Saudi Arabia.
Very interested in, like, Abu Dhabi itself.
We are in Dubai right now,
but Abu Dhabi, they're two of the Emirates, of course,
I think the two most well-known.
I think. I don't know my geography super well in the Middle East,
but I am learning a little bit better.
We also met with several different people involving tokenizing real estate here in Dubai.
People were very interested in that.
And now we're seeing there's another use case for BEN Coin that seems to be rising up,
which is consultancy, right?
Like, if the whole thing we're trying to do here is crypto adoption,
then when you've got people that have ideas that are Web2 people,
or what I call normal people,
and they haven't moved over to this Web3 crypto world,
the fact that we have the ability and the know-how with our team
to be able to walk people through what actually it would be like
to turn an island out here in Dubai, a manmade island,
not the Palm, but some other ones they're making,
turn island into a tokenized fractionalized real estate offering.
We can do it.
We know how to do it.
And when we're having these interesting use cases brought up,
then that puts us right in the middle of what's on the cutting edge in crypto
and helps us to push that over the goal line.
So really excited about that.
Last, we had some meetings with some very successful people.
I will tell you that.
You guys know my vlogger Aaron,
he's got into crypto a little bit.
He films all my videos as his work.
Not this one.
It's me in the background.
He films a lot of my videos and all of our scripted stuff.
And Aaron's awesome. We love Aaron.
And, you know, I'll say this.
Aaron knew who these people were.
Not a crypto guy.
He knew--
these people are from a niche so big,
so well known,
that it will blow your mind.
And now they're telling us about a secret project that they're doing in crypto
that's going to be coming out soon.
And guess what it involves?
Real word use case,
real world adoption,
real world products,
some really cool stuff,
and that, once again, lines up with BEN Coin.
So maybe having some potential talks with these partners later on in the week.
Got several people coming around at Bitget party later this week on Friday.
Several people coming to that.
Hopefully, by the end of this week,
we'll have a lot more of these partnerships and advisor roles really nailed down.
We also are working on a way for the people that got hit in the hack
on my Twitter that sent money recklessly
that sent money by connecting a wallet to a site they didn't know
and their wallets got drained.
We got big news later this week on how as soon as next week,
we could be preparing the funds to start paying some people back.
And I did tell you, you're going to do security course first,
so that we may have the funds to do it,
but we are going to have--
you're going to have to take a security course,
so we've got to get that security course ready as well.
But big moves on that, big announcement coming.
Probably Thursday.
Probably Thursday, maybe Friday on exactly what we're going to be doing.
It's going to be a time crunch.
We're going to be doing this thing very quickly
because if we don't get the people paid back quickly, they might--
now, NFTs, we're not sure how we can--
if you had NFTs drained from your wallet,
we're not really sure how to handle that.
I don't know if we can actually pay you back for that.
I'm not because their NFTs are one-of-ones.
So it'd be a lot of work for us to go and attach values to each one
and it just gets very complicated.
We're also going to be,
when we do this thing,
and we do start paying people out,
we're going to pay out in ETH.
Why?
Well, if you come back to BEN Coin, now, you're going to go buy it.
If you were in BEN Coin and you lost it,
and you don't want to go back in,
we're not going to send you BEN Coins to dump.
So if people want to get an ETH,
that's going to be a good way to keep, you know, momentum going.
The other thing that we discovered that--
very interesting.
Think about this, guys.
We got some enemies out there. Okay?
We definitely have some enemies.
And I think that--
look, I want to be very clear. I've said this many times.
ben.eth is not our enemy. Okay?
We don't say anything bad about him and his projects.
He was the creator of BEN Coin.
But there are people in his community that are in our project and also in his projects,
and they don't like us.
They want it to be a war between me and Ben,
which is not. We're cool.
We have no problem with each other.
Everything is fine.
I think, you know, I think the Bitcoin orange, you know, stuff is very interesting.
We've been watching it.
But I think there's some innovative stuff there.
We'll see what happens if he rolls the DEX out or when the DEX and memecoin stuff is cool.
Hope it does well.
Hope everybody that's invested does great.
Okay?
But there's some people in that community that don't like us.
There's people in our community that don't like him either.
And that's just the way that it goes.
I can't control people's opinions like that.
The point of what I'm trying to say here is,
we were looking at some addresses,
and what we've seen is,
people were saying, "Why? I don't understand. Like, the price is just stuck."
Well, there's a few addresses out there
that every single time there's a big buy that comes in,
they're selling that amount.
There's somebody who buys 3.5 ETH?
Boop! 3.5 ETH go out.
10 ETH come in?
10 ETH go out.
It's almost seems like on clockwork.
And I will tell you this.
We also were doing some very interesting digging into the hacker
and looking at some of the places that he was sending money to.
It's very interesting.
That's all I'm going to say on that right now.
It's very interesting.
We are st--
we got some bloodhounds looking through stuff right now.
If we get down and find out some real bad stuff,
don't worry, we're going to tell you about it for sure.
But why am I telling you this now?
Is because, guys, there is an attempt to keep this thing from moving.
It's very obvious and it's choreographed.
At some point, the haters run out of steam.
We've been able to keep the same baseline even though people have been doing that.
And even though the crypto market collapsed last week,
BEN Coin held up very well, especially against the Bitcoin dominance.
So we're seeing a lot of very favorable things.
We got a lot more meetings this week.
We are making things happen.
We're going to be excited later on this week to announce some really cool stuff for you guys
coming next week.
You're definitely going to want to pay attention.
So alright, guys.
I hope you guys have a good night.
I'm here.
You see the--
you can't even see the city because of the reflection of me.
That's all I got.
Be blessed.
BitBoy out.
