Speaker:

You don't have any exposure to Bitcoin, what the hell are you doing? The

Speaker:

fact that you're not actually says a lot about you rather than it does about Bitcoin. Don't

Speaker:

get locked in on the minute by minute candles or price

Speaker:

action of what is happening in the crypto space. It will drive you insane. Crypto

Speaker:

won't save you if you're financially reckless. That's

Speaker:

not how it works. 99% of cryptos are actually scams. Most

Speaker:

people come in at the highs. You're not late to

Speaker:

crypto, just early to the next cycle. The only reason

Speaker:

why you would now keep your money in industry superannuation fund

Speaker:

is because you're not educated. I'm Matthew Fraser and this is

Speaker:

Crypto Collective. After making millions with Amazon and e-commerce,

Speaker:

I realized that if I was starting again today, crypto would

Speaker:

be my first choice. I'm here to help you take your first

Speaker:

steps and build real wealth. Ready to set yourself up

Speaker:

for life? Let's go. Hey, guys. Welcome to Crypto Collective.

Speaker:

My name is Matthew Fraser. In today's episode, I'm

Speaker:

going to be giving you brutal advice from myself, a

Speaker:

multi-millionaire in the crypto space. Let's jump into

Speaker:

it. All right, guys. Let's start by saying this.

Speaker:

Crypto won't save you if you're financially reckless.

Speaker:

Crypto is not one of those things where you can just blindly put

Speaker:

money into any type of crypto and it just instantly becomes

Speaker:

an overnight success like you just make millions of dollars that's

Speaker:

not how it works and i see a lot of people

Speaker:

particularly recently who have jumped on the meme bandwagon

Speaker:

right because you do Look, I understand why you would do it because

Speaker:

you see a lot of things on social media that shows guys who put 79 cents

Speaker:

into a meme and they sold it at like $800,000. Guys, I'm

Speaker:

telling you, it's bullshit. Okay, that does not happen.

Speaker:

And even if you find someone that it does happen to, it'd be one

Speaker:

in like a kabillion people that just somehow miraculously put

Speaker:

a little bit of money in it and end up selling at exactly the right moment. My

Speaker:

advice to you is do not get suckered in to these

Speaker:

types of crypto, I would call them scams to

Speaker:

be honest, because 99% of cryptos are actually scams. I

Speaker:

mean, I even had a friend of mine the other day ring me. And this is after I've

Speaker:

been telling him about getting his, a part of his superannuation

Speaker:

exposed to Bitcoin, right? Getting out of the industry super

Speaker:

fund, which let's be honest, is shit, okay? You're

Speaker:

only going to get probably, if history shows, between 6% to

Speaker:

8%, okay? He's going to take some of his money out of the industry super

Speaker:

fund, put it into Bitcoin. Now, he knows the returns. Last

Speaker:

year alone, we saw 120% returning in crypto in 2024, right?

Speaker:

On average, over the past sort of five plus years, it's been 50 to

Speaker:

60% compounding, right? It's been very good. But even despite all

Speaker:

those numbers and where it's likely to go over

Speaker:

the next 20 years, my friend still rang me and said, Matt,

Speaker:

I've just seen Mr. Peanut Coin. It could go

Speaker:

really, really high. Should I put some money into it?" And I just had

Speaker:

to slap him around the head and say, what are you thinking? I mean,

Speaker:

I've already told you the numbers. Look, let me put it this way to you, I said, if

Speaker:

you want to piss that money up the wall and you're prepared to

Speaker:

just let it go and basically flush it down the toilet, then

Speaker:

go ahead and do it. And maybe sometimes I should just

Speaker:

let my friends do that, so they get a taste of what it's like just

Speaker:

to lose their money, so they then come back and say, yep, you're right, all

Speaker:

these shitcoins, as they're called, or cryptos, are

Speaker:

just not worth it. I'm just going to stick to what's tried and

Speaker:

proven over 16 years now, which is Bitcoin. And so this

Speaker:

happens to the best of us. Yeah, I've got

Speaker:

other stories of guys who put money into

Speaker:

these cryptos and then lost $50,000 Can you imagine actually

Speaker:

just having $50,000 in your bank account and just thinking It's

Speaker:

gone. It's just like a meme out of South Park, right? You

Speaker:

put your money in and it's gone. And that's exactly what happens to people.

Speaker:

And it happens a lot. This is probably, if I

Speaker:

just digress a second, this is probably partly the reason

Speaker:

why it's so difficult to get your money out of a bank now

Speaker:

into crypto exchanges, because the banks know that

Speaker:

most people are fucking stupid. That's just the reality of

Speaker:

it. They know that you're going to piss it up the wall.

Speaker:

And here's the next problem, is that when you do piss it up the wall, you

Speaker:

don't take responsibility for your own actions, you then go back

Speaker:

to the bank. You call up the bank, oh, I was stupid,

Speaker:

I got scammed, I got rug pulled, I didn't know what I was doing. That's

Speaker:

not the bank's fucking problem. It's your problem. And you need to

Speaker:

take responsibility for your own actions. Because guess what? Because you're

Speaker:

actually doing that, you're fucking it all up for everybody else. Because

Speaker:

now people like myself, even though I don't have too many problems, but other

Speaker:

people who are actually not so reckless, who just want to move some money

Speaker:

into a crypto exchange, the bank's tightening down and all this stuff, and

Speaker:

it takes a long time to get through all the rubbish to get the

Speaker:

money in. So it's all the idiots out there who are actually causing

Speaker:

the problem. All I can say is, Don't be greedy. And

Speaker:

I know it's hard because you see these things on social media, like I

Speaker:

said, and you think you're going to get rich overnight too. But trust me,

Speaker:

you are not going to get rich overnight. If it

Speaker:

was possible, then everybody would be doing it. You'd see

Speaker:

Lamborghinis down the street and Ferraris down the street. The Lamborghini dealership would

Speaker:

have a sold out sticker on it because everyone would just be, had made

Speaker:

it. Please guys. I don't want you to lose money. That is

Speaker:

not my goal. My goal is to give you the brutal, honest truth

Speaker:

in this episode so that you don't lose all your money. Because I tell

Speaker:

you what, you lose all your money, next thing you know, you probably lose

Speaker:

your partner, your wife, your marriage break up, your kids are gone. I

Speaker:

mean, it could be absolute devastation. And I do not want

Speaker:

that to happen for you. So what you're going to say to me then is, OK, Matt,

Speaker:

if we can't get rich quick, then how do we get rich? Well, I'm

Speaker:

telling you, it's not easy. That's the

Speaker:

fact. If it was easy getting rich in crypto, just like

Speaker:

it was just easy getting rich full stop, then everyone

Speaker:

would just be rich, right? But you have to have the right mindset.

Speaker:

You can't be, like I said in the outset, financially reckless.

Speaker:

You got to take the right precautions. You got to do the right education

Speaker:

to understand what you're investing in. and that's just that's not

Speaker:

even crypto like you've got to understand what you're investing in

Speaker:

not just crypto but property into shares and

Speaker:

stocks and the whole gamut of assets that are out there you could

Speaker:

even stuff it up investing in gold gold which

Speaker:

is for the most part a pretty safe type of investment it's

Speaker:

not really going anywhere it's been around for thousands of years but people

Speaker:

still stuff it up because they buy at the wrong time the market did They sell,

Speaker:

they lose money, you know, people make mistakes. So regardless

Speaker:

of the asset, especially in crypto, you

Speaker:

must get educated. So even if that means you've

Speaker:

got to go and get educated by paying someone, this is not

Speaker:

a talking me up type of thing. I'm not I'm not asking you to pay me. I'm

Speaker:

just saying just find anyone who's financially more savvy than

Speaker:

you in whatever industry you're looking into, particularly in

Speaker:

the crypto space. And I can tell you from personal experience, when I got into crypto,

Speaker:

I put my hand up, I was crap, right? I didn't had no

Speaker:

idea what I was doing, right? I didn't understand market cycles. I

Speaker:

didn't even know what altcoins meant. I didn't even understand what altcoins meant.

Speaker:

which of course just rolls off the tongue now, but for a lot of new people, of course, you don't

Speaker:

know, right? And you've got to get in on the know before you can start

Speaker:

parting with your hard-earned cash. Getting the money into your

Speaker:

pocket is already difficult. So don't make

Speaker:

it even more difficult by pissing that money up the wall. Invest

Speaker:

in yourself. So this is what I'm saying, go and find some courses, even

Speaker:

if it's an online course, just get educated, start small, and

Speaker:

at least go a little bit away to understanding what

Speaker:

you're getting into so you don't fuck it up. Yeah. The next bit

Speaker:

of brutal advice is for people who are

Speaker:

in the market already, but they're constantly tracking the

Speaker:

market, like relentlessly, like every single, like by

Speaker:

the five minute, by the minute candles, right? It's just not the

Speaker:

right attitude to have when you're coming into this space, right? Because

Speaker:

it can start to mess with your psyche. What? It's up, it's down, it's up,

Speaker:

it's down, right? And the crypto market is so volatile anyway,

Speaker:

it's going to be up and down. What you need to do is zoom out

Speaker:

right and that there's a saying in this game which is, if in doubt, zoom

Speaker:

out right which means zoom out at the landscape of crypto

Speaker:

over a longer time frame, because although it might be

Speaker:

going up and down. you know, violently, let's say in a day, when

Speaker:

you zoom out to perhaps a year, two years, five

Speaker:

years, it's a blip, you don't even notice it. And so it

Speaker:

gives you a sense of calm, like, oh, hang on a second, it

Speaker:

might have dropped 5%, 10% today. But

Speaker:

overall, the market is actually trending in the upwards direction,

Speaker:

for example. Now, I can tell you that is the case for Bitcoin. Over

Speaker:

the course of 16 odd years, Bitcoin has had ups

Speaker:

and downs to do with the bear markets and also

Speaker:

the bull markets, or the bear cycles and the bull cycles. That's just a

Speaker:

normal course of what happens in the crypto game, right? So don't get locked in

Speaker:

on the minute-by-minute candles or price action of

Speaker:

what is happening in the crypto space because it will drive you

Speaker:

insane. Now, that leads me into crypto

Speaker:

is a long game. It's not a slot machine that

Speaker:

you just put money in and expect it to 10x. Actually,

Speaker:

wouldn't that be good? I put $10 into the slot machine and it spout out

Speaker:

$100. This is a great machine, right? Every time. That's how some people think

Speaker:

the crypto space is. I just put money in and I pull more money

Speaker:

out and I made a profit. It goes back to the beginning, right? This is not a get

Speaker:

rich quick scheme. Now, Can you make money in

Speaker:

a quicker time frame than, let's say, Bitcoin,

Speaker:

for example, which might be over a longer time frame? Yeah, you can. But

Speaker:

you've got to be so Johnny on the spot and know what you are

Speaker:

doing in order to buy at a particular low point to

Speaker:

sell at a future high point, right? And even if that's over three months.

Speaker:

The market seems to always move against wherever you

Speaker:

think it's going. And even just this year, right, in the

Speaker:

year 2025, but altcoins were

Speaker:

all at an all-time high, for the most part, were at all-time highs

Speaker:

at the beginning of this year. And then basically from the beginning of this year, they've

Speaker:

gone down a lot, like some 40, 50, 60 plus

Speaker:

percent. I personally hold altcoins, some

Speaker:

of them are down 80%. Now, Am I losing

Speaker:

sleep over it? No, because when I got into the market, I

Speaker:

positioned, I allocated my altcoin portfolio to

Speaker:

a point where it's only a small section of

Speaker:

my overall portfolio. And I remember getting in when

Speaker:

I was allocating, I remember thinking at the time, am I prepared for

Speaker:

this altcoin allocation, which is in the six, multiple six

Speaker:

figures, am I prepared for this to go to zero? And the answer

Speaker:

I had in my head was, yes, I am prepared for this to go

Speaker:

to zero. It's a gamble. I can't predict the future. I

Speaker:

can guesstimate the future based on history, but

Speaker:

things happen. Now, a lot of people at the moment have started selling out of their altcoins.

Speaker:

Even a lot of high profile people on social media who are running courses,

Speaker:

they've sold out their altcoins. I personally haven't sold out of most

Speaker:

of my altcoins. I did sell out of some altcoins actually towards

Speaker:

the beginning of this year, which probably in hindsight was actually quite good.

Speaker:

But I simply rotated those into other altcoins. You know,

Speaker:

I went out of smaller position altcoins, lower cap altcoins into

Speaker:

Solana. I just really wanted to put more money into Solana,

Speaker:

which has a higher market cap and I think has more fundamental tokenomics

Speaker:

behind it for the future. So without going into the

Speaker:

weeds, I think my Solana is actually my second largest holding

Speaker:

after Bitcoin, which you guys, if you've been following me for a while, you know that because I talk about

Speaker:

it all the time. This is the state of play right now as a lot of people have

Speaker:

actually lost a lot of money. That's what I'm getting to, is they've lost a lot of

Speaker:

money because most people come in at the highs, okay?

Speaker:

When the euphoria is there and it's all over the television and

Speaker:

everyone's high-fiving each other and, yes, look at it! It's

Speaker:

at an all-time high right now. And then that's when other people buy in because they're

Speaker:

feeling the same sense of euphoria of, wow, it's

Speaker:

going to keep going up. And the reality is that the market just doesn't

Speaker:

go up and up and up and up and up forever, right? There's corrections, down

Speaker:

periods, bear cycles. And look, there's some people saying that

Speaker:

it could even go lower today than what it is now. Now, by the time

Speaker:

you see this video, maybe it's come back up again. And right now, as of today, it's

Speaker:

sitting at about $82,000. So it could be, by

Speaker:

the time you see this video, $62,000. Or it

Speaker:

could be back up to $112,000. Yeah, it could

Speaker:

be an all-time high. So who really knows? And a lot of the macro

Speaker:

conditions are coming in. Macro conditions meaning the worldwide events that

Speaker:

are really outside of the micro conditions of what's happening in

Speaker:

your backyard. Tariffs. the world wars that are

Speaker:

happening at the moment, those largely are

Speaker:

playing, having an effect on the markets. So guys, it's a

Speaker:

long-term game is what I'm getting at. Long-term meaning for me,

Speaker:

it's years and years, not hours, days,

Speaker:

weeks, right? For me, it's not even months. It's

Speaker:

actually years and years and years. And I think if

Speaker:

you sit down and do the numbers just like I do within

Speaker:

inside my Crypto Collective community, and if you want to join the

Speaker:

Crypto Collective community to have access to me, answer all your questions,

Speaker:

find the link in the description somewhere, it's free to join. And I'd love to answer

Speaker:

your questions as I do for many others. But sometimes you just need things to

Speaker:

bounce ideas off and so I'm there to help. So what I talk

Speaker:

about though is the long-term game, right, of 10, 20 years.

Speaker:

I'm even thinking now in my children's future

Speaker:

years, which really comes down to 30, and

Speaker:

40 years. My children right now are 5 and 10. So they're going to be in

Speaker:

their 30s and 40s by the time I'm

Speaker:

sort of thinking, OK? Which, if that all plays out,

Speaker:

Bitcoin is likely to be somewhere between, if

Speaker:

we talk 20 years, somewhere between $13 million

Speaker:

a coin, possibly up to a bull case scenario, as

Speaker:

is according to Michael Saylor, upwards of $75 million a coin.

Speaker:

Absolutely ridiculous. And that's why it's so important to have

Speaker:

that long timeframe. And I always say, particularly to

Speaker:

people who are getting in now, get your foot in the game, have

Speaker:

some exposure, even don't forget about the research bit, right?

Speaker:

Just, I know I said before, do some research, but I'm talking about just put like a

Speaker:

hundred dollars in. $100 is actually forming part of

Speaker:

your research, okay? And the reason why is because once you put some

Speaker:

money in the system, you then start to take notice. As you could

Speaker:

read all the books, and I wanted to quickly plug this one, The

Speaker:

Big Print by Lawrence Lippard, absolutely amazing. That

Speaker:

one's only just come out. And this one here, The Bitcoin Standard. Now, The Bitcoin Standard

Speaker:

is the one that every Bitcoiner must read. Every

Speaker:

person who's new to the crypto space and Bitcoin must

Speaker:

read. So free plug for those books. Essential reading

Speaker:

will give you an excellent idea and insight into

Speaker:

Bitcoin and the ins and outs of it. Okay, I'll leave it at that, but

Speaker:

essential reading. Hey, just quickly, if you're ready to dive deeper into crypto

and strategies and live discussions to help you succeed, whether

Speaker:

you're a beginner or scaling your portfolio. Click on the

Speaker:

link in the description and join us today. Now back to the episode. When

Speaker:

it comes down to long term investing, dollar cost averaging

Speaker:

into Bitcoin is the way to go. So guys, the other one I

Speaker:

hear a lot is you need to have a lot of diversification,

Speaker:

let's call it, within the altcoins, right? Rather than just having

Speaker:

one solid conviction on one or two or three or

Speaker:

four possibly altcoins and Bitcoin. And I understand there's some

Speaker:

differences because of different strategies. Some people might

Speaker:

be wanting to invest in altcoins because they believe they're going to have a

Speaker:

much higher return through, let's say, this next bull cycle.

Speaker:

Yeah, they may plan to sell out those altcoins and see

Speaker:

more of a return. But having said that, the

Speaker:

altcoins also come with much higher risk. You

Speaker:

have to think about your strategy. And I, at this point,

Speaker:

would consolidate more into, if you have to

Speaker:

buy altcoins, I would consolidate into maybe no more than, I'm going

Speaker:

to say, five altcoins. And you must have Bitcoin.

Speaker:

I don't really care what you say. In my opinion, you must have

Speaker:

exposure to Bitcoin. And I would even argue that the majority of

Speaker:

your exposure should be in Bitcoin. Because I can tell you, you

Speaker:

know, when friends come to see me and they talk about XYZ altcoins,

Speaker:

I say, listen, governments around the world are not buying

Speaker:

up Mr. Peanut coin, okay? You might argue

Speaker:

to me that it's going to have an amazing return over the next six months or 12 months.

Speaker:

Fundamentally, it's rubbish. Okay, there is no

Speaker:

actual use case for it. I understand there's a use case within

Speaker:

the meme coin space in crypto. However,

Speaker:

to the average punter, there really is no utility case for meme coins except

Speaker:

for it's just fun to you know, see it go up and down, right? And

Speaker:

get out before you get rug pulled. That's the fun bit. You must have the

Speaker:

Bitcoin exposure. And the reason why is you run the risk right now. And this

Speaker:

is to everybody. Actually, this is to everybody who has no

Speaker:

Bitcoin, right? So people who are brand new to the market. What

Speaker:

you will say to me is, Matthew, we must, we

Speaker:

can only buy Bitcoin with money we can afford to lose. And

Speaker:

I'm going to pose it to you this way, the risk that you run right now is

Speaker:

actually having no exposure to Bitcoin. And

Speaker:

I would say only put money in that you can't afford

Speaker:

to lose, okay? I'm going to say that again because your head right now

Speaker:

is spinning. Only put money into Bitcoin that

Speaker:

you cannot afford to lose. Because the only thing

Speaker:

that we can guarantee right now If we look at history, is that the

Speaker:

fiat currency is being debased. You've got inflation. What

Speaker:

that means is the purchasing power of your fiat

Speaker:

dollars, which is your money, your currency, your Australian dollars, the

Speaker:

purchasing power is going backwards and you don't have to... think

Speaker:

of that as a conspiracy or anything. You just have to look at

Speaker:

when you go to pick up the groceries and you go through the shops and you look at

Speaker:

the price of everything has increased. So the amount of money that you

Speaker:

had last year and the year before that is now buying less

Speaker:

this year. That is because of currency debasement. And

Speaker:

if you want to extrapolate that into to really hit home, you

Speaker:

only have to go back to, say, like the 80s or the 90s to

Speaker:

see how much was something worth back then compared to what

Speaker:

what is is being charged for today that is currency debasement

Speaker:

caused by money printing by central

Speaker:

banks that is the reason so on the flip

Speaker:

side the one thing that you could also pretty much guarantee right

Speaker:

now is that bitcoin is not going in

Speaker:

the downward trajectory now i can hear that

Speaker:

i can hear the people now commenting oh matt that's rubbish because we

Speaker:

just saw Bitcoin go from an all-time high earlier this year,

Speaker:

and now it's crashed all the way down to $80,000. Yeah, I

Speaker:

would argue that's a market correction. But if you look at the overall

Speaker:

long-term value of Bitcoin over the last

Speaker:

15-16 years, it's gone in the upwards direction. If you just do

Speaker:

the research, and I'm not even going to say myself, even someone

Speaker:

who I look up to, who I respect, Michael Saylor, as

Speaker:

I just mentioned before, he believes that the next 20 years are

Speaker:

going to be the gold rush for Bitcoin. This is when

Speaker:

Bitcoin is going to be explosive. So the risk

Speaker:

that you run is having no exposure to

Speaker:

the asset that is likely to be the best performing

Speaker:

asset over the next 20 years. It's already been the

Speaker:

best performing asset over the basically the past 10 to 15 years.

Speaker:

I know it's scary because you're trying to get your head around what

Speaker:

is Bitcoin? What does it even do? I think it's just air money and

Speaker:

it's just on the internet, right? I even just remember. I had a

Speaker:

guy just put up a comment the other day in one of my posts, and he said, if you turn

Speaker:

off the computer, then you could just lose your Bitcoin. I was like,

Speaker:

oh, okay. Okay, don't make such

Speaker:

ill-informed comments, if I can put it that way. That's okay. And

Speaker:

I don't want to, I'm not sort of being down on him, but it's

Speaker:

certainly a comment that it's really in this day and age that people even still

Speaker:

think that, but I guess they do. And that's because they're not getting educated.

Speaker:

I want to say this too. You've heard me say this many times before. I used to

Speaker:

think Bitcoin was a scam. And so when you start throwing the words at

Speaker:

me, Matt, Bitcoin's a scam and it's nothing. I get it, right? I

Speaker:

used to be there too. I used to think Bitcoin was a scam and

Speaker:

this was going back, you know, eight years ago. But what I did is I

Speaker:

woke up one day, I had my orange pill moment. I can't remember

Speaker:

the exact reason why. It was probably because I didn't want to lose

Speaker:

my wealth, the wealth that I've created through e-commerce. I

Speaker:

want to retain my wealth. and build

Speaker:

on my wealth into the future, right? And don't begrudge me for

Speaker:

that, because you would want to do the same thing. If you became a

Speaker:

multi-millionaire, you would also want to protect your wealth too,

Speaker:

right? And so I'm just sharing this to you so that you can learn

Speaker:

from what I've done. Okay, so you need to go

Speaker:

and get the Bitcoin Standard. I know I keep saying it, but honestly, it's the best book

Speaker:

to read to understand Bitcoin. And And

Speaker:

really, I think once you've read it, you'll then start thinking

Speaker:

completely differently about Bitcoin. But let

Speaker:

me also say this. It's not even you need to go read the

Speaker:

book. You just have to turn on the TV. Just turn on the TV and see

Speaker:

actually what's happening in the world of the Bitcoin crypto

Speaker:

space. In America right now, we have Donald

Speaker:

Trump, who's the crypto, or

Speaker:

I guess he was saying the Bitcoin president, right? So what he's doing is

Speaker:

he's, in case you're not up to speed with this, He's implementing a

Speaker:

strategic Bitcoin reserve, right? What does that mean? They're

Speaker:

going to be buying up, grabbing Bitcoin from

Speaker:

their existing stashes they've got around the country, but accumulating Bitcoin

Speaker:

for the future. And as Donald Trump says, they're never selling. And

Speaker:

so the more that they accumulate, the better it

Speaker:

is for everybody else. Now, why is it good, though, if Donald

Speaker:

Trump accumulates Bitcoin and just accumulates it in

Speaker:

the US? Well, the reason why is because Bitcoin has a finite

Speaker:

supply. There's a limited number of Bitcoin that

Speaker:

will be in the market. And I saw another post the other day who just, he

Speaker:

just didn't understand it. Yeah, but if it's 21 million is the market

Speaker:

cap of Bitcoin, that's all that will ever be produced. What happens if

Speaker:

they just go and make more? What happens? Good question. What

Speaker:

happens? They can't go and make more. You cannot make more

Speaker:

than 21 Bitcoin. Why? Because it's just the way Bitcoin

Speaker:

is designed. It's how the system works,

Speaker:

the code of Bitcoin, as you could say. That's just how

Speaker:

it works. There is only 21 million that will ever be produced. We're

Speaker:

actually right now coming up to 20 million Bitcoin that

Speaker:

have now been produced in the system. And what's interesting is

Speaker:

they even say that up to about 5 million Bitcoin, I think it may even

Speaker:

be more, but up to 5 million Bitcoin are lost. So there's actually

Speaker:

now only 15 million in circulation. Now, why is that important?

Speaker:

And how does that now relate to Donald Trump accumulating Bitcoin? It

Speaker:

means that because there's a finite supply, there's less

Speaker:

to go around for everybody, which means that as there's more demand for

Speaker:

Bitcoin, the price of the value of Bitcoin in

Speaker:

monetary terms increases. That's it's a simple supply and

Speaker:

demand, the pressures on Bitcoin, people want to buy it, they want

Speaker:

to store their wealth, it's considered a store of

Speaker:

value. So they retain all their wealth in Bitcoin because

Speaker:

it cannot be debased. You can't just go and print more of it.

Speaker:

Going back to, I guess, you know, what is the risk? I mentioned before,

Speaker:

the risk is that you hold on to cash. And what we know for certain

Speaker:

is that we'll be debased and you will have less of purchasing

Speaker:

power into the future. Because someone said to me the other day, Matt, $1 will

Speaker:

always be worth $1. So, you know, why would I go and buy Bitcoin?

Speaker:

I'm like, this $1? that you had back in 1980, yeah, essentially

Speaker:

it's still $1 today, but what can you buy with it today? What

Speaker:

you could buy for $1 back in 1980 was a lot more than

Speaker:

what you can buy for $1 today. So, I'm being brutal

Speaker:

about it because I just want to give you the facts. You're not late

Speaker:

to crypto, just early to the next cycle. This comes

Speaker:

up all the time. I don't want to buy any Bitcoin. It's

Speaker:

too late. It's already, it's just hit a hundred, you

Speaker:

know, $108,000 all-time high. It's just too

Speaker:

much. I've even got guys, you know, they bought it when it was like $20,000 and then it

Speaker:

got to $30,000 and they sold that thing. They're like, we're

Speaker:

taking our 10 grand we're out and now it's got up to a hundred plus thousand dollars

Speaker:

or even today at 80 odd thousand dollars and they just can't

Speaker:

get over the fact that they've got to pay more and i think that's why now

Speaker:

that i think about it i think that's why so many people who

Speaker:

don't hold bitcoin hate Bitcoin they just

Speaker:

they fucking it pisses them off the fact that you hold

Speaker:

Bitcoin and You probably got it at a price much

Speaker:

cheaper than what they're going to have to eventually pay because eventually

Speaker:

Everybody's gonna have to move on to the Bitcoin standard That's what's gonna happen

Speaker:

and they're gonna have to pay a lot more than what they're

Speaker:

gonna have to pay today now Of course people

Speaker:

are pissed off. I understand it. You know, I would have loved to have bought

Speaker:

Bitcoin when it was $0.30, $1, $100, $1,000. Hey, I would have loved

Speaker:

to have bought more at $10,000. It would have been a dream. But I didn't buy

Speaker:

it at $10,000, right? And

Speaker:

the old saying goes right now, one of Michael Saylor's 21 rules

Speaker:

of Bitcoin is that you get Bitcoin at the price you

Speaker:

deserve. So guys, what I want to say to you is you're not

Speaker:

too late to crypto. You're not as in, you're not too late to Bitcoin especially.

Speaker:

Now, what I would say is just start your dollar cost

Speaker:

averaging, right? Just start buying into the market at whatever you

Speaker:

can afford to do. All the money that you don't want to lose, you put

Speaker:

it into Bitcoin. But whatever you can spare out of your day-to-day cash flow,

Speaker:

whether that's $100 a day, $100 a week, $100 a

Speaker:

month, you must start allocating. It

Speaker:

is simple. All you have to do is get a little bit of education to understand

Speaker:

how to do it, and you'll find that it's really, really simple. Because I'm

Speaker:

telling you, you are going to be missing out if

Speaker:

you do not start buying today. Okay, what's

Speaker:

going to happen? I'm predicting the future right now because the signs are all

Speaker:

there. And if you want to go and research this on Google, you can. The

Speaker:

banks in America are already allowed to and will start

Speaker:

custodying Bitcoin. I just spoke to Ken who's already based out

Speaker:

of the US, right? He just told me that the banks now are going to start having

Speaker:

Bitcoin wallets in the bank. So when you log on to your net

Speaker:

banking, they'll have savings account, X amount of dollars,

Speaker:

Bitcoin account X amount of Bitcoin that is happening.

Speaker:

And once that does this is why it's so important once the banks

Speaker:

start the custody in Bitcoin Everyone will

Speaker:

start flooding in everyone will start flooding in and I understand

Speaker:

why because now it seems what's legit now I

Speaker:

can now go to the Commonwealth Bank and they're gonna hold my Bitcoin for

Speaker:

me in fact I can just go to the Commonwealth Bank and I can actually buy

Speaker:

Bitcoin through their exchange and How easy is that? And

Speaker:

once that happens, the floodgates will open, everyone will

Speaker:

start rushing in and buying up as much Bitcoin as they possibly can

Speaker:

afford because now it seems safe and secure in the bank. And

Speaker:

it's not to say that it's not safe and secure now, it's just that once the banks

Speaker:

start doing it, it becomes easy. And people don't want

Speaker:

to do things that's outside their comfort zone or

Speaker:

might be considered not easy to do, right? Now, once

Speaker:

they do that, guess what's going to happen to the Bitcoin price? It's going to go through

Speaker:

the roof. Yeah, because everyone's going to start rushing in. And remember, there's

Speaker:

only 21 million Bitcoin that will ever be produced.

Speaker:

And likely only about 16 million that will be in circulation at

Speaker:

any one time. And a lot of people right now are holding on

Speaker:

to their Bitcoin, right? You're going to have to wrestle

Speaker:

people, you know, put guns to people's head in order for them to release their

Speaker:

Bitcoin. Because I won't be releasing my Bitcoin, and neither will a

Speaker:

lot of other people. I don't want to scare you, but I just want to give you the facts so

Speaker:

that you know that time is running out and

Speaker:

just simply the sooner you get in, the better. Okay, guys, this

Speaker:

one is going to be super, excuse the pun, but super controversial,

Speaker:

which is about superannuation. And I can tell you, I've

Speaker:

moved all of my super out of the industry super

Speaker:

fund, my money out of the industry super fund, and moved it

Speaker:

all into Bitcoin. And you're going to have kittens right now thinking, oh my

Speaker:

god, Matt, now I said this before, only put money into Bitcoin that

Speaker:

you cannot afford to lose, right? Now,

Speaker:

I just want to give you some examples of the money.

Speaker:

If I'd left my money in the industry super fund last year in

Speaker:

2024, I would have got about 8 or 9% return. Instead,

Speaker:

though, my Bitcoin, right, so my value went up

Speaker:

120%. Right? It is a joke. And the only reason why you

Speaker:

would now keep your money in the industry superannuation fund

Speaker:

is because you're not educated. That's honestly what I believe is

Speaker:

the only reason. Now, you could argue, oh Matt, the

Speaker:

superannuation system in Australia has been fantastic and people put money into

Speaker:

it. I agree. The superannuation system in Australia for the

Speaker:

most part has been very good to put money aside

Speaker:

and stack cash for the future while it's of course

Speaker:

compounding. But the problem is that up until just recently, there

Speaker:

was no Bitcoin. So you could only compare it to whatever

Speaker:

was the old world, the triad, the traditional finance world,

Speaker:

which was returns of, let's say, 6% to 10%. And

Speaker:

even if you got upwards of 13%, that would have been incredible. That

Speaker:

would have been like a superstar year. I just had a really

Speaker:

good conversation with a guy yesterday on my social because this

Speaker:

guy's coming from the tradfire world he's in the

Speaker:

superannuation funds heavily he's got clients so i presume

Speaker:

he's probably some sort of financial advisor or something he said matt

Speaker:

all the people i talked to you know compounding within super has

Speaker:

been absolutely fantastic for them i'm like yeah i'm sure it has but

Speaker:

that it doesn't even meet the hurdle rate. Now, what is the hurdle rate right now? You

Speaker:

kind of have to be getting above 14% per annum in

Speaker:

order just to break even, considering currency debasement and inflation. That's

Speaker:

just the facts. I know people hate to hear that, because we like to think that

Speaker:

we've got money sitting in super, and it's just setting us up for

Speaker:

the future. And then when we get to retirement age, we're all just going to be able to go on overseas holidays.

Speaker:

It'll be fantastic. The reality is, guys, that is now a dream

Speaker:

for most. So you're going to have to start taking action and start

Speaker:

thinking about, how can I beat the hurdle rate right now? There's a

Speaker:

few different ways to do it, but one of the easiest ways, in my opinion,

Speaker:

is to simply allocate your superannuation fund into

Speaker:

Bitcoin. As I said before, over the last five plus years, you've seen

Speaker:

a 50 to 60% compounding rate on Bitcoin, right? What's

Speaker:

it likely to do into the future? It's probably going to do at least

Speaker:

30 to 50% compounding annually over the next 20 years.

Speaker:

You simply cannot beat it. And as everyone else around the world

Speaker:

starts to adopt it, you do not want to be left behind. So guys, I'm

Speaker:

gonna leave it at that. It was the brutal and honest, devastating

Speaker:

truth from me, who's a multimillionaire, and I hope you can

Speaker:

take all that to the bank, so to speak. Go get some Bitcoin. All

Speaker:

right, take care. I'm Matthew Fraser, and this is Crypto Collective. After

Speaker:
