Alright, guys. Let's check this out.
Disney did something insane you've got to hear about.
We've got what may be the greatest company to ever jump into crypto and NFTs
now jumping into crypto and NFTs.
I can't wait to show you about that story.
Okay. Let's start off by looking at the markets here.
We got Bitcoin coming in at $43,000.
Down a shade. It was up a shade earlier.
Meh!
Ethereum at $3,300
Binance Coin still under $500
Nothing really that sexy going on
Cardano had a little bit of a pump today to $1.34
and LUNA up 6%
Let's look at the biggest gainers of the day.
LUNA is your top gainer of the day,
with a 6% gain.
Cardano, No. 2, with 4.8%.
Then we got Uniswap,
PancakeSwap,
Enjin,
XRD,
GALA making a little bit of a comeback
and ECOMI.
Alright. Taking a quick look at Bitcoin here,
you guys can see that Bitcoin is still just pretty boring.
I wish I had something to tell you guys other than that,
but we're really just in the middle of this channel.
We don't really-- or this, you know, falling wedge here.
I don't know if we're going to go up or we're going to go down from here.
We've got to break out of this range.
You know, but, you know,
we're right now just in this little downtrend here.
You know, we're making lower highs.
So we'll have to see what happens.
We could be breaking down to the bottom of this channel.
But let's talk about what is exciting.
Let's talk about what's going on in crypto.
No. 1, I mean, before we get into this Disney thing, which is insane,
I just want to cover this story.
I mean, this is--
this is nuts right here!
Crocs!
That's right.
Crocs is jumping into the NFT market.
Or, I'm sorry,
they're chomping into NFTs,
trademark filing shows.
So you have Adidas, you've got Nike getting involved,
but what better project or what better shoe company out there to get involved in NFTS
than Crocs?
Because that's what you're wearing in the basement
when your mom yells, "Come up and get your sandwich!"
So, I salute you, Croc-wearers.
I actually wear Crocs myself.
I'm wearing cowboy boots right now though, I tell you what.
Okay. We've got this story here
that is talking about Web3.
And a lot of people are, you know, for whatever reason,
really bearish on Web3 as a buzzword.
They're talking, you know, how, you know, it's got similarities to scams and different stuff.
It's asinine.
It is like people who called the internet a scam or Bitcoin a scam.
But I think what to keep in mind is that
we accept everything that is traditional
as, you know--
I'm trying to think of the right word here.
As upfront, right?
Like, when you were younger and you heard about the stock market,
you probably didn't know there was all this manipulation.
When we're born into the world and the culture,
most people just accept what's already there as status quo.
If I were to lay out the plan for how to create a profitable bank before banks existed,
you would have said that was the most gigantic scam of all time,
except for maybe fiat currency.
That in itself is also a giant scam.
It's all in how we use these things.
And so Web3 is going to be some that we're going to be talking a lot more about going forward.
Definitely not a scam.
Don't buy into what a lot of the haters are saying right now.
Metaverse also is something that a lot of people are really bullish on.
Disney, Second Life and K-pop,
all making noise here.
A K-pop concert may be going on in some, you know, metaverse.
Second Life--
they're calling the Second Life's creator the new Steve Jobs.
He's coming back to the company as adviser as they move towards blockchain and metaverse,
which is really interesting.
But the big story of the day here is Disney.
They've actually taken a patent here
for a virtual-world simulator in a real-world venue.
Now, what does this mean?
Well, I'll tell you what I understand.
What I've taken from this.
It's kind of like this.
Imagine it is your daughter's 8th birthday, okay?
And you want to take her to Disney World for her birthday.
She can have a special set of glasses that she would put on,
and everywhere she went around Disney,
there would be things that say happy birthday to whatever your daughter's name is.
Let's just call her--
I don't know--
Jessica!
Do people still name their kid Jessica?
I don't know if they do or not.
Let's just call her Jessica.
"Happy Birthday, Jessica!" on the castle.
"Happy Birthday, Jessica!" in the middle of--
It's a small world, right?
So what this is is combining virtual with real.
Some would call this augmented reality.
But, you know, this is very interesting.
Disney is going to be a big matter-- winner in the metaverse.
I called it a matter verse.
Matter!
So we'll have to see what happens with it,
but Disney is making big waves,
and this is coming to the US, China, France and/or Japan.
So watch out for that.
Alright, guys. That's all I got.
Be blessed.
BitBoy out.
