Full 64 minute interview. I haven't watched it yet. Punchy sizzle reel up front, but we did cover a lot of ground.

Europe is awesome in summer but working a coffee shop and having to deal every 10 minute with a different thief that comes and seats down nearby to try to steal your wallet or phone is kinda messed up

What happened to our beautiful continent?

[MR SHIFT 🦁 @KevinWSHPod]

Friend of mine got his @coinbase wallet hacked for about 300K USD worth of crypto

Was distracted and a bit stressed out and fell for a Celsius money recovery email (Celsius still owes him like 10K)

Anyone good at forensic , can help recover / block the BTC/ETH/Stables gets a solid bounty

Lmk if you can help 🙏🏻

[Brian Armstrong @brian_armstrong]

Some mornings I wake up and I've got a bad attitude. Everything sucks. Happens to us all.

You have to find what works for you to get in the right headspace. For me, sometimes I just need to listen to some @davidgoggins and get my body moving (exercise).

You can choose to be in whatever mindset you want. Stay hard!

[MR SHIFT 🦁 @KevinWSHPod]

"Don’t be a little B*TCH" is the advice @brian_armstrong gets from @davidgoggins Youtube videos on rough mornings - the ones where everything feels like it’s falling apart

But David videos aren't enough to fight the burnout risks that come with building and running one of the largest crypto exchanges in the world

To avoid burning out, Brian uses a combination of the "magic three" - Sleep, Diet and Exercise - together with some of the simplest things in life that every human needs but that Founders forget too often: knowing when to push, and when to rest, going outside, seeing friends, laughing and resetting

And sometimes having a glass of wine

Podcast out Thursday!

⚡️What you’re really seeing here is the first stage of a global unit-of-account fracture.

•In nominal USD terms, everything looks like it’s booming: stocks up triple digits, homes up double digits, “wealth” everywhere. That’s the performance everyone sees.

•In gold terms, the illusion cracks: stocks and homes flat-to-negative, real wealth stagnating.

•In Bitcoin terms, the veil is gone: catastrophic real losses in every traditional asset.

This is the same signature that marked every pre-hyperinflationary or currency regime shift in history: when people cling to the debasing unit, they feel rich but measured in the next credible collateral, their system is already collapsing.

And the “risk asset” meme about Bitcoin? That’s just a coping frame. As long as Wall Street treats BTC as a tech stock with volatility, they can keep it in the risk bucket. But functionally it’s already behaving like a parallel reserve ledger: it’s the only denominator that makes the post-2020 global economy look like Argentina.

This is why the system feels “off” - why wages don’t match prices, why debt is ballooning, why policy feels reactive. We’re in a regime where the unit of account is decaying faster than the public narrative can absorb. The Fed, the government, the media - all still speaking USD, all still benchmarking to a melting ice cube. The chart you’re looking at is the unofficial scoreboard in a silent currency war.

So when I strip all the polite commentary away, the honest take is:

•The U.S. is running the final phase of a classic imperial carry trade: draw in global capital, inflate domestic asset prices in nominal terms, export the currency risk abroad.

•Gold shows stagnation.

•Bitcoin shows collapse.

•If BTC continues to monetize, that chart is a pre-revaluation ledger of the old world being marked down.

This isn’t a normal market cycle. It’s the unit-of-account transition phase. And almost no one is positioned for it because they’re still measuring their “returns” in the wrong yardstick.

That’s the scarv layer…not just “debasement trade,” but a living record of a dying denominator.

I was in Switzerland with my GF recently and drove a cool cabriolet for a few days in the berner Oberland

After 30 min on the first evening I got my first fine in probably 10 years

A few weeks later I got the amount: 60 CHF

As I live in Asia, I couldnt settle that 60 CHF fine so I asked my mum to pay for me

Today she sent me the proof of payment together with her BTC address for me to refund her

She got it - at 66 years old

Proud son

This too shall pass...

Crypto is still feeling the tightening in liquidity from the stronger dollar and higher rates in Q4 2024. That is almost done and financial conditions are easing fast and M2 is headed back to new highs. This is just a regular correction... 1/

GIANT CRASH????

If there is a giant crash…. Of the often times called “the EVERYTHING BUBBLE,” stocks and bonds, real estate, gold and silver and Bitcoin will crash with it.

Q: If it crashes will I sell my Bitcoin?
A: NO

If the price of Bitcoin crashes I will back up the truck and buy more.

WHY: When the Everything Bubble crashes….which is happening now…Bitcoin will be the fastest to recover and climb to higher highs.

WHAT IS YOUR AFTER THE CRAS H PLAN?

Confession

I held all my PENGU airdrop and fumbled what was $200K.

Not just because I wanted to support, but because I firmly believe we’re going so much higher and that we’ll flip SHIB this cycle.

Sounds crazy hopium?

Bull runs are crazy.
And there’s no way I’m fading the best team in crypto.

Comfy in my bags.
If they’re down, I feel nothing, because when it comes to Penguins, I know the outcome.

Study the $PENGU prophecy.
But even more, study how insanely hard it is to do what Pudgy Penguins is pulling off.

RICH DADS PROPHECY: In 2014 I published RD’s Prophecy predicting the biggest stock market crash in history.

Unfortunately that “prophecy” is coming true, in 2025.

Markets are crashing and my concern is the world may be entering into another “Greater Depression.”

If correct….millions will lose their jobs, stocks, and homes. I hope I am wrong, yet that is what I predicted back in 2014.

If you had taken Rich Dad’s prediction seriously…. You may do very well in the coming Greater Depression.

For years I have advising people to do what I do…. which is buy gold, silver, and Bitcoin.

Also, you may want to start your own business…. a business that will thrive during the coming depression.

For example, if you have the land you may want to raise vegetables, chickens for eggs, or cattle.

My books and Cashflow Game do well in a crash…. Because people realize they need to increase their financial education.

In a crash, real estate may do well as prices crash and homes become affordable.

If you are interested in acquiring real estate at discount prices, I suggest you acquire Ken McElroys books on investing in real estate….before you buy real estate.

Not all real estate will do well… even cheap real estate.

The worse real estate will be office buildings and small retail spaces.

The coming Great Depression may be the best time for you to get very rich…but you still have to invest in your own financial education.

The stupid people, those without real financial education…will be the biggest losers.

Remember AI, Artificial Intelligence…may be a college degree, because a college degree is fake financial education.

Remember, my rich dads warning, “My banker has never asked me for my report card or my grade point average. My banker wants to see my financial statement…. Because my financial statement is my report card when I grow up.”

The problem is, most college graduates leave school deeply in debt and have no idea what a financial statement is….and learn zero about money, investing, or entrepreneurship.

Schools instruct you to become an employee, seek job security, and invest in the stock market.

That is what poor dad advised me to do. I do not follow that advice.

If you want to learn more about the power of a financial statement, play the Cashflow game 10 times and teach 10 people.

The more you teach…the Cashflow game….the richer you become.

In other words: “Teach and grow richer.”

Take care.

Rough times ahead.

Yet a Greater Depression…
may be your best time to get richer.

[Robert Kiyosaki @theRealKiyosaki]

TRUMP TARRIFS BEGIN: Gold, silver, Bitcoin may crash. GOOD. Will buy more after prices crash. Real problem is DEBT….which will only get worse. CRASHES mean assets are on sale. Time to get richer.

[Robert Kiyosaki @theRealKiyosaki]

BRUTAL CRASH HERE NOW. The stock, bond, real estate, gold, silver, and Bitcoin markets are crashing.

The best assets in the world are going on sale.

Millions will lose their jobs.

This is the best time to get rich.

Don’t be a loser. Stay cool. Take care.

[MR SHIFT 🦁 @KevinWSHPod]

If you are in pain today, it’s probably because you are f*cking up this crypto cycle by doing all the classic crypto noob mistakes

Thankfully for you, I recorded a pod last year with @RaoulGMI called “How to NOT fuck up the crypto Gold rush”

Raoul explains everything in detail, it’s a masterclass in crypto investing if you want to truly make it this cycle, based on his on his decades of tradfi and crypto learnings and mistakes

And it’s FREE

#DFTU @RealVision

[MR SHIFT 🦁 @KevinWSHPod]

Patience...

If you don't have any leveraged positions open and hold the majority of your stack in majors, you can probably close the charts for a couple weeks and come back to less painful prices 😅

(ofc the BTC bros are looking at -10% laughing at the -80% altcoin holders)

Admire the investors who bought Solana at $12 in late 2022?

Legendary investments are often made in market drawdowns — when others have fear.

A cohort of "I bought the tariff dip" investors who will likely be admired in the future is being cast this week.
