Only 60k views, don't think would make economic sense to try make Netflix quality content for a small % of people who are interested in and frankly not everyone will understand the depth of this. First episode was 3 million.... 8 hours later only 0.06 million people left 😂.

When you mine (Bitcoin) it's treated as income, but you claim your cost of mining equipment and power usage as your cost basis to get the actual profit for a given period of time.

My fuckin thoughts exactly! Most of his classes could be classified only as speculations rather than concrete arguments. El Salvador is plagues with gun violence and its ever expanding black market, although its president may be a cryptoboi, he is still trying to crack down on illegal activities even the nation is dealing with a huge debt. There's nothing to take away from this to help El Salvador cuz the lecturer's argument and content is too Americanized, rarely works globally
This content is so good! I hope the crypto community can form a coalition to influence policy toward some collective ideal. I worry that, given personnel is policy, these people won't have the knowledge or understanding of what they're writing policies for and we'll be left with a system that is far from the ideal.
1:16:17 his concluding tought on asymetric risk. He says bitcoin doesn't give much upside to somebody in charge of a balance sheet in a company, but could loose is job if the transition doesn't go as planned. Micheal Saylor as the majority of his stake in his company, he had huge upside potential for little risk. Micheal Saylor talk about asymetric fight in the Breedlove's series. Micheal is the maximalist version of Gary.
@@maskedn0066 If someone managing funds for a firm like Fidelity or Vanguard were to allocate a hefty position in Bitcoin - there's not much profit to gain in the foreseeable future, if things were to go right. However, if that position were to tank, that same manager may very well kiss his career goodbye. This 'low upside high risk' attitude is an accurate depiction of Gensler's minimalist position.

Saylors the bull, Genslers the bear.
One of us, either the participant in the class or me, does not understand the Howey test. The participant said citrus groves became securities, that's not how I understood it. Howey sells his citrus groves as a real estate investment, while making a deal to stay on the farm and make money producing fruit for sale. I think essentially, actually nothing has changed for Howey, he is living on the farm making money as before, but now he's received a nice lump of cash from the sale, and that's all. Howey doesn't necessarily have any plans to make the real estate deal profitable for the buyers, but I think not only that, could Howey actually reclaim the property with squatter's rights? They would be farming there for years, with permission from the owner
The business model of many if not most banks is to do illegal stuff with money and if they get caught, pay 30 cents on the dollar. But Crpytos are know for "illicit activity" .. RIGHT! What about cash?

It is like a craps table at a casino but alot more sketchy because the price of cryptos can go to zero or up fast like FTX ,and it's gone so you might as well go to a casino.But for insiders or those that run the cryptos can siphon off money to live in the Bahamas or Switzerland that also has a bank failure probably tied into this cryptic system .Does a duck float ,yes .Does a crypto float ,yes until it doesn't.
-The PDF file doesn't contain all slides in the video lecture . -He was only not right about his anticipation about China, they completely banned Bitcoin
Looks like the US crypto policy is a cornerstone and will be eventually a model for the world legal framework. Japan after early adoption on national level now urge for international uniform approach. There are by now all the the spectre of legal regimes for crypto in different countries from total criminal ban like in Iran, Venezuela and China ( except state subsidised Bitcoin mining and Hong Kong based crypto paradise providing capital control free payment channel) up to ignoring entire story like in Russia where they were unable to produce any legislation for years, before FATF asked State Regulators follow through with at least some regulations, as Moscow was far behind all other jurisdictions and did not care much about
3 years later ,the financial stability is walking like a duck with SVB and how about an audit trail of things like FTX moving crypto offshore to Bahamas with ease and apparently no oversight as billions disappear with little or no attention until after its withdrawn.Does this cause a loss in con fidence.And how about money laundering and even political donations,and now it's actually spread into the system causing bank issues and failures in dozens of banks now needing bailouts.
I wonder why the concept of "intrinsic value" in itself was not challanged in the class. In my view, nothing has "intrinsic value": the value of an object or service is always relative to a huge number of factors (location/demographics/time of day). Perhaps I misunderstand the idea of "intrinsic value", but even something like a piece of steak is not intrinsically valuable to everybody (not to those who are already satiated, as well as those who are vegetarian). In other words: I feel that value is always part of a relationship, and to say that something is "intrinsically valuable" is to ignore that relationship. Everything is extrinsically valuable insofar as it provides utility.

Interesting how he’s called XRP a crypto currency in his MIT lectures but now that he’s SEC Chairman, XRP is a security. What a steamy load of shit.
He assumed the role in April 2021 but the XRP lawsuit was filed in 2020, so actually looking good for XRP
Gary did say 'Issuers' and NOT 'insurers' but he's thanking the other guy for correcting him. lool
He made the typo "insurers" instead of "issuers" on the first bullet point of the slide...
