So before we jump into it just gonna say hi to Hernan looks like he made it here. How you doing, man?

I’m good, man. Sorry about the slight delay. I was in a meeting that runs late. It was supposed to be five minutes by the end of being seven. That’s all right. You’re gonna get detention, but I hate that man. I hate that. So anyway, happy to be here. Awesome. All right. Well, that’s about it. Let’s get into it unless anybody else had I think we got one more thing.

If you’re struggling or needs help with that just hit me up in the Facebook group. The semantic mastermind Facebook group and yeah, that’s it. Awesome.

Hell of a deal.

Definitely.

I guess. Let’s get into it. Bradley. You’re good to go. Yeah, I’m good. Now let me grab the screen. You know, I’m still fighting through. I got a new PC last week and boy, and I remember why over six years, I kept my old one for six years because it’s a nightmare, transferring everything from, you know, one PC to another just takes forever. It’s been a week and I’m still not done.

So I got a question for you, Bradley. And hopefully, some other people can relate. And I know the answer, like from her nine, because I know he plays PC games. And so I bet you know, he nerds out on like putting together his PC or like getting a new one. Do you do that to Bradley? Or is it has it always just been like a work machine for you? And it just works. Okay. So like I transition because I used to, like, nerd out, you know, I’m like researching and doing all this and building my own PC. And now I’m like, dreading upgrading, because I’m like, Oh, my God, I don’t want to deal with having to like download programs and do this. And I never understood people who were like that before. Now. That’s to me, like one of the things I’m like, shit, I’m getting old. I know. Yeah.

Well, I used, I used this program, but it’s a company called Laplink. It’s called PC mover. And I use the professional version, which like 60 bucks or something like that. But it was great. It had it was overnight, it transferred everything from one PC to the other, all programs and everything, but you still got to log back into the programs, and then kind of like reset them or re-register them and all that kind of stuff. So and then obviously, some of the settings aren’t all the same, but it definitely helped. You know, before I’ve always done that shit manually, and it would literally take days of doing nothing but working on the PC like the transfer stuff. And this made everything a lot easier. But it’s still you know, I’m still going in and have to modify things. Do you know what I mean? So

that’s cool. What was that called? Again?

It’s called a sea mover by Laplink.

Awesome. I’m gonna write it down. It’s pretty cool. What saved me a ton of time. It lets me transfer overnight. And it took about six hours for it to transfer everything from one to another. But once it was done as I said, it definitely sped up the process still working my way through some bugs, but it was definitely a lot easier.

Sure. What rockets Did you get like that’s the curious question on everybody’s mind? The what? What kind of rocket computer did you get? Well, I got a good one was 64 megabytes RAM because that was my biggest issue. I use a browser to still, God forbid. And when I got a shit ton of Chrome profiles open, it slows my computer way down. I went from 32 gigabytes ram to 64 and it’s um, it’s definitely better. It’s faster. There are no questions.

I got a recommendation for you there right there. Was that is a fucking VPS man? Now to float the whole thing of like, 500 open tabs.

I just bought a new PC, so I don’t need to do that shit. So you can even do this like a week Chromebook and run that operation.

moving into question.

There we go. Alright, guys, we’re gonna get into it. Now. We’re gonna start with chassis that GIF anyways, maybe we’ll get to it. Keep going.

Which one?

Nevermind, just keep going.

I don’t see it.

Okay.

Is It Okay To Add A Company’s Wiki Page To Its Schema Data In SEO Ultimate?

All right. Anyway, moving on. Chad says Hey, guys. Well, it looks like I don’t remember answering this one last week. So we’ll go with this one. If a company has a Wikipedia page or something similar, like Crunchbase Is it a good idea to include it as a link in things schema using something like SEO ultimate for the name of the brand and variations of the brand to help with branded SERPs? Or is this a stupid idea and better to just put in sameas schema? Yeah, I mean, I’m I don’t fully understand the question or what you’re attempting to do. So if you want to clarify that, I’ll try to give you a better answer. But honestly just put it in the same as schema. That’s sameas schemas. Actually, it’s for your primary social accounts. However, we’ve had for years now we’ve been listing all of what we did, we feel are the most powerful properties that are, you know, branded profiles for a project to brand a company. And so I’ll use what I consider to be the most powerful citations, so to speak, or places where I have a profile, so it’ll be the main social media accounts, YouTube, Twitter, Tumblr, or excuse me, YouTube, Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, you know, Instagram, if you have it, I typically don’t use Instagram, but so the main social media accounts and then, like the Google Site GMB website, if you’re if you have a GMB the GMB map URL, you can also use the hash map designation and schema for that also, but I also put that in same as the Google site if you got an SEO shield, which you should press advantage organization page part of the SEO shield, right. And then also, I’ll put in top-level citations, if it’s for local, I’ve talked about how to do this many times. But typically, what I’ll do is just go to Google and search for the company name plus the phone number and then whatever listings or citations show up or any sort of profiles period that show up in the top two pages of Google search results for that brand plus phone number. By the way, if the top two pages are filled up with a lot of pages from the company domain, right from the, from that entities domain, then you can always put in a modifier like minus, then the domain name right the domain itself, so you know, mydomain.com, so minus the minus sign, then my domain.com, and it will strip those from the results that it shows. So again, I’ll do a search for the brand name plus phone number. And then I’ll do the minus domain comm as part of it, and then whatever shows up on those top two pages, I’ve just put those in my same as click through and make sure that they’re relevant. You know, if there’s not really any data on the page, then it’s unnecessary to put it in the schema, same as schema. But if it’s got the name, address, and phone number listed, and preferably with the link back to the site, and I will put that back in, or I’ll put that in the same schema. So again, top-level social media, the top syndication, network profiles, not all of them, but I put the top ones in like blogger, Tumblr, WordPress, for example, about me is another good one, press advantage, Google Site GMB website, GMB map share URL, or preferably the CI d equals URL not to share URL, and then the top two pages of citations or when I say citations, I don’t just mean structured citations like business directories, I mean, any anything that Google determines in the top two pages for that type of a search, why I just do the top two pages, because those are the ones that Google thinks are the most important, or the most authoritative, that are referencing your project site, right the brand itself. So that’s why I just stick with those. I don’t spam it to death. I know some people that will put everything that they ever create for their brand and same as, and it’s like super long. And I don’t think that that hurts it. But I just think that’s overkill. And there’s some sort of diminishing return there. So I like I said, I just stick with the top-level ones. And that’s basically it and typically gets really good results. And that can all be done with sameas schema. I wouldn’t attempt any of these other things that well first of all, I’m not 100% sure what you were asking, but you run the risk of ambiguating the entity if you start messing with it, so that’s why sameas is a particular designation that works well for that kind of thing. comments on that, guys, I know. It’s probably gonna be mostly me today.

How Do You Get The Twitter SEO Profile Addon When You Purchase The SEO Power Shield?

Nope, no, man. Okay, looks good. All right, moving on. So Chad says, Hey, guys, I’m looking to purchase a done for you SEO power shield. I noticed that with our ys reloaded package, there’s a Twitter SEO profile add on option since the SEO power shield includes an RYS stack? Is the Twitter SEO profile included? And if not, how do I go about adding that before or during checkout? Last thing? Fuck Google? It’s funny. Marco would be proud jazz? Um, that’s a really good question. Honestly, I know, I don’t typically use the Twitter SEO add on. And it’s just because I don’t really like Twitter. I know it’s good for SEO and all that. I’ve never been a fan of Twitter. So it’s just something I don’t use. If it’s something that you want to add to an SEO power shield, and that that does not come with it. Okay. If you’re ordering just a drive stack, then you can have that as an add on right? Or you can buy that package with the Twitter SEO and the SEO power show because it’s not something that people commonly purchased the Twitter SEO network, then we don’t include that in the SEO PowerSuite. Because again, those are like the bundled services, which people mostly purchase, right. So that’s the SEO shield packages are bundles that are the most commonly purchased bundles, so to speak. So if you want that add on, I would just contact support and ask how they want to handle that because I don’t think we have a that’s kind of just customization but I’m sure that support will accommodate you just contact [email protected] and tell them what you’re trying to do and they’ll get you sorted I’m sure. Okay.

Would Creating Online Tools Like WhoIs Checker Inadvertently Benefit Competitors As Their Domains Will Be Crawled?

Okay, the next question is from Pierce he says, Hey guys looking to build out some online tools for my web hosting business like an online who is checker, etc. which will create new domains with info about different domains. With info about different domains, okay, with doing this inadvertently benefit my competitors as their domains may get crawled and listed on the Whois tool. Won’t there be any links going to the domains just information like brand name image of the homepage and who is registration? I don’t fully understand that question Is anybody else? You guys probably weren’t even paying attention. Were you? I know I don’t fully understand this question. So we try one more time. Hey, guys, looking to build out some online tools for my web hosting business like an online who is checker, which will create new domains with info about different domains. I don’t understand the point of that.

I’m just wondering if that’s like, sorry, I don’t know the right terminology for this, but like you’re creating pages on the fly, like as people query it, you’re like, hey, let’s find out about this page. And then it builds a page with the information that, you know, in, like, builds it on the fly, maybe, but probably not a different domain. I mean, it could be a subdomain, but it probably is a page, but I don’t know.

Yeah. Yeah, I don’t fully understand the question. I don’t understand what creating new domains with info about different domains means. So just go, let’s assume he’s talking about subdomain. So like, every time someone does a query, he goes to go to his site, to go to domain.com, and say, Hey, tell me about semantic mastery. And it did some information on semantic mastery. And it creates a page called semantic mastery.is domain calm, and it shows some information about it. And just as of right, then that page is created on the fly and the domain exists.

As their domains may get crowded, listed on. Yeah, okay. If that’s what you’re, and that that was a great interpretation, Adam, because that may very well be what he’s trying to do. And I’m just going to assume that that is the case. For now. Maybe there’s some clarification down further?

No. All right. Well, I’m gonna run with what Adams interpretation of that question was, if that were the case, then, you know, that’s a good question. I don’t know 100%? No, if you’re not linking back to the competitor domain, then most likely not I mean, it’s still considered a citation. Right? If you’re listing information about the brand, the domain itself, right, then it could be considered a citation, which would be you know, remember, a citation doesn’t have to include a link, it’s just the publishing of entity information, typically name, address and phone number, right NAP. Sometimes the link sometimes without but just publishing that, even if it’s not hyperlinked is not clickable, none of that can count as a citation that’s more beneficial for local projects than it is for like national or global or whatever. But it still is it can help with SEO. But since if there’s no link whatsoever, you’re likely it’s likely that it wouldn’t, you know, it wouldn’t move the needle and is what I’m saying for your competitors. So I don’t think that that would be a problem. And again, that’s just me assuming that that is what you’re trying to do is create a subdomain page anytime somebody doesn’t create a query because I don’t really fully understand the question. So anyway, that said, hopefully, that answers your question. I don’t think it would be an issue if it’s just listing like text-based data about that domain. But again, still not 100% sure why you would want to do that.

Will You Get Topics Related To Law When You Submit A Deep Keyword Research For Lawyers?

So anyway, there he says, Lanre. I think I got it right this time, man. Landre, right. I think so. Anyways, if I need to do a keyword for divorce lawyers, if I need to do keywords, or key okay for divorce lawyers, do I need to submit for keyword research for lawyers or divorce lawyers? Okay, so if you’re going to order a keyword research package because I’m assuming that’s what you’re asking if you’re going to order a keyword search package from MGYB. for divorce lawyers do I submit for keyword research, for lawyers, or for divorce lawyers? Well, if you’re going specifically after divorce lawyers, then if you were to just submit lawyers as your keyword, then it’s going to pull back divorce lawyers and personal injury attorneys and family law and, you know, criminal attorneys, and it’s going to pull all that back, which would be not relevant to your project, right. So if your project is all about divorce lawyers, then I would use divorce lawyers or attorneys, you know, they’re kind of interchangeable as your keyword. And then they’ll start pulling it from there and extracting all of the keywords, you know, subsets or theme sub-themes from divorce lawyers. And I’m kind of compiling and optimizing the keyword file for you that way if it’s the, you know, the top whatever the top-level keyword packages, so that’s, that’s what I would suggest because remember, if you’re going with the broader term, you’re going to get broader results too, which aren’t going to be relevant to your product or your project, excuse me. So I would go with divorce lawyers. Okay, don’t include any local modifiers though. We don’t need that for the deep keyword research.

If I submit for deep keyword research for lawyers, will I be able to select various areas of law to build my site or Well, I have to build a law site that covers various ways I’d be able to select various areas of law to build my site? Or will I have to build a law site that covers various areas of law Okay, um, all right, I won’t be able to select various areas of law to build my site? Yeah, I mean, as I said, if you go with the lawyers like for D word, if you just went with lawyers, right, which is very broad, then it’s going to return everything. And there will be suggested silos and all that, which then, you know, you can determine whether you want to use them or not. It’s up to your, you know, what, what your project is about? Because you, if you again, if you go with lawyers, there’s going to be all kinds of environmental law, immigration lawyers, there’s going to be all kinds of stuff in there, that is probably not going to be relevant to you. I mean, again, I don’t know what you mentioned in the previous question, divorce lawyers. So I’m assuming that you want to be optimized more for that. more specialized right. So I would go with just divorce lawyers. But again, if you want to do a more general type of law website that covers multiple subcategories for attorneys or lawyers, then you want to go with the broader term. Does that make sense? And then you can just select which, you know, silos or suggested silos that you want to use. And again, they’re suggested you still have to go through and, you know, stack the content or the keywords, the way that you want them to be, we do our best to give you you know, things and keyword groups or keyword themes, which would be suggested silos essentially. But it’s still up to you to go through and actually, you know, choose which ones of those keywords are fully relevant to your project, and to select which ones you’re going to create content for or optimized content for is that if that makes sense? Okay. All right. Moving on. hopefully, that answered that question. It was a little bit of a difficult question, I guess.

Is It Wise To Point Tier 2 Links From MGYB Or Other Sources To Bit.ly Linking Back To The Money Site?

Christopher says, Hey, SM crew, when it comes to pop pushing power behind links, is it wise? Is it a wise idea to point tier two legs from MGYB? or other sources to Bitly? linking back to the money site? Or is it better to direct somewhere else? Okay, Christopher, that’s a good question. But there are a few things that I would recommend. So tier two links from MGYB or other sources to Bitly. Okay. Bitly, I don’t recommend using Bitly for shortening links, your money sites, and stuff, because this has been a known issue with Bitly. Now, it may have changed, it may be updated. And they don’t do this anymore. I don’t know. I just know from years ago, I’m talking like, you know, six, seven years ago, Bitly was infamous for. They’re supposed to be 301 redirect URLs, short shorteners, right, which creates a 301 redirect, but for whatever reason, and there was no like, rhyme, or reason behind it. Bentley will sometimes convert some Bitly redirects to three Oh, twos, right, which is it, it doesn’t allow PageRank to pass. And if that’s the case, then building links to Bitly shortened URLs that have been tagged as 302, you know, have been converted to 302 redirects, then you lose all of any potential benefit from the link building to that short link is completely lost at that point. So we have for years and years, we stopped using Bitly for short URLs other than like, when you’re using them for SEO purposes, I use Bitly all the time in like internal documents and things like that. Because it’s not SEO related, right? It’s but when I’m doing when I’m creating redirects for SEO purposes, I don’t like to use Bitly. Because of that very reason. There’s sometimes you’ll look at Bit.ly links and through like a redirect checker and it’ll be a 301. Other times you’ll look at Bitly links, and there’ll be 3.0s in Bitly just does that on their own, at least they used to again, it’s been many years since I’ve really tested any of that because I just stopped using Bitly years ago because of that reason. So I don’t know if that’s still the case or not. But I know that at some point, they were doing that and so it made Bitly not a good tool for SEO purposes. That said, Remember, MGYB has a link shortener, right. And that’s why we use it because we do a lot of what you’re asking about here. For example, if you go to mgyb.co/s, which is the link shortener, you’ll see what I’m talking about, okay.

And that was not what I wanted to do. Right there, mgyb.co/s is the link shortener. So you can sign up, you know, you can have a free account or you can pay for a paid account, which is very, very inexpensive and gives you some additional functionality. But that’s part of the reason when we deliver like an SEO shield, for example, all of the five links that were included in the order originally like your syndication, network profiles, then all of the files and folders that are created throughout the building of the drive stack. All of those links also get shortened. And if you take a look at like for example, the links sheet That comes with an SEO shield order. You’ll see on the so the Google Sheet when I say sheet, that’s what I mean. You’ll see on there, there will be all of the URLs listed for all the files and folders in the drive stack in one column. And then in the column to the right of it, there will be all the short URLs that are MGYB. Seo short, shortened URLs. And the reason why we do that is that, you know, with all the link building that gets done to drive stacks and everything else, people will also submit link building, you know, the target, the mgyb.co short URLs as target URLs. And so over time, this has gotten really, really powerful. In fact, there’s, it’s funny, but oftentimes, the MGYB.co short URLs will rank in search results as opposed to the unfurled or the target destination URLs. So like, for example, Google, My Maps, my map URL, typically I see for a lot of the projects that I have SEO shields done when the mind maps are ranking. It’s the MGYB.co short URL, as opposed to the actual Google URL. Does that make sense? that’s showing in the search results. So if you want to use a link shortener use ours, because that’s specifically why we set it up was for that reason, and there is some benefit to that. Now, remember, there’s a little bit of PageRank, that drops through redirects, right, you lose a little bit of loss PageRank loss through every redirect, I don’t know what that number is. It’s, you know, a small percentage, like 10 to 15%, or something like that. And I don’t know that that’s completely accurate anyways. So there is a little bit of a loss there. But there is some benefit to it as well because again, our short URL link URL, and probably all the big ones Bitly probably has a shit ton of power built to it. But if it arbitrarily converts it to a 302, you’re not going to benefit from that. Does that make sense? So there are other options out there, there’s ours, then there are other options out there that won’t arbitrarily assign a 302 redirect? Okay. That’s a good question.

What Other Places Where We Can Secure Citations For Local SEO Clients Aside From Yelp And Manta?

Okay, moving on. George, the SEO, aside from places like Yelp Manta and other directories and press releases, where are some other places we can see secure psychic citations, excuse me, for local SEO clients? Um, well, you know, there’s the normal business directories. But one of the things out here, I’ll, I’ll go through a little exercise with you guys. And this works really well for stuff to remember, there are a few things that you guys should be doing for citations, besides the standard citations, which everybody and their brother is on, you should be looking for niche-specific directories. So like industry-specific directories, let me pull this up. Industry directories and also local directories. Right. So what I mean by that, so for example, if I, you know, Tree Service stuff is what I do. So if I say tree service business directory, go through here and see. I don’t understand what that means. Anyways, look at that later. Okay, so what I would do is go just do a search for you know, your industry business directory, and just start clicking through and see which ones you can get listed on, some are going to be paid, but many of them will be free, and compile a list. If there are similar or tangent industries, that would also be good places to get listed. So for example, a tree service business directory, I could get listed on as many of these in here that I could find, that makes sense that, you know, again, some are going to be paid some of they’re going to are going to be free. just compile a list of industry-specific directories. then like I said, look for a tangent market or industry directories. So for example, I could look for landscaping, business directories, right, those could be some of the other ones that I could get listed on because of tree services. Oftentimes, landscapers also provide tree services, and oftentimes tree services also provide landscaping services. Right? That makes sense. So that that’d be another word one, something else for in the tree service industry would be like maybe land clearing. Let’s do this. Right. So just you guys understand what I’m saying. Right? I was and I don’t know, because land clearing isn’t probably searched enough on its own for it to have specific directories, maybe it does. I’d have to do some research. But my point is just going through and try to compile a list of what could be industry-related or somewhat related industry-specific directories that you can try to attempt to get listed on so that’s going to help okay for talking relevancy, but then for location, relevancy, or geographic relevancy, then you could look for local business directories. So for example, if I was going to look for, you know, say, Fairfax, Virginia, I’m just going to use that or Richmond, Virginia, which is the capital of Virginia. So let me do that, let’s say Richmond, VA, or Richmond, Virginia, Business Directory. And then I would just go right on through here and just start clicking through and opening up, that’s richmond.com, the Chamber of Commerce, obviously, that’d be another good one. There, all of these different try to put it back over there. This is this is richmond.com. This is the Chamber of Commerce 804 area.com, Richmond gov.com, you might even be able to get listed on like the local municipality or local government site, Richmond light pages in like all of these does that make sense, you just go through and look for your city business directories. And then you could also even look for not just your city, but your state, right, you could go like, in my case, Virginia business directory, and then go in and start getting listed on those. So there you go, you’ve got three additional options right there, something else you could look for is local blogs, it doesn’t have to just be directories. You could also look out for local blogs, local event, local events would be something else that you might be able to get listed on. So you just got to click through and do a little bit of research. But guys, these types of citations are actually way more powerful than the big ones like the big national directories because those are general business directories that cover all types of business categories. And all over the United States, sometimes even more. So those are there’s a place for those. There’s no question. But I found for SEO purposes, you get better results from industry-specific and local business directories. And even you know, state business directories are also helpful. Does that make sense? Does anybody want to comment on that?

And nothing, man. Okay.

Should I Use A Gsite Or Buy A Domain For Local Service Lead Gen Site?

bb’s up? Hey, guys, should I use a G site Or buy a domain for local service lead gen, please explain for short term and long term strategy. Okay. Um, you know, Rob, he does everything with just a G site, he doesn’t do any, like self-hosted sites at all. And he’s, you know, he kills it. There’s, I like to still build a brand with a self-hosted site. For the most part, if I’m doing a standalone GMB lead gen, that isn’t going to be like some brand that I plan to expand, then, which I try not to do that anymore at all. If I’m going to start building lead gen assets, I try to always create a brand that I’m going to use across multiple locations. Okay, because, as we’ve talked about many, many times before, now, you don’t have to have a self-hosted site for that, though, right? You can create it and here’s the thing BB. Whatever route you go, whether you want to self-hosted site, right, so by domain for that, or just use Google sites and drive stacks, you know, the SEO shield, essentially, without a self-hosted site, you can do it, either way, it doesn’t matter. It’s up to you. I tend to like to have a WordPress site still because it gives me additional functionality. But I know that you can do it with just a G site. What my recommendation is, is that you target just a brand on the primary g site, if you want to go that route where you’re you don’t have to buy domains, you don’t have to have a hosting account. You don’t have to set up and maintain or manage WordPress, you can do it with just a Google site. But what I recommend is instead of localizing the Google site, for the initial, the initial one, you want to set it up as a brand, right? So essentially, let’s just call it Bs, lead gen, right? We’re gonna call it that. So your first your G site and your SEO shield, I would set it up on to where it’s optimized for specifically the brand. That’s it. All right, so that you order the SEO power field for Bibi’s lead gen. So that’s the brand so that Google site would be sites.google.com slash views, slash Bs, lead gen. And I wouldn’t add or associate it with a particular location. At that point, if there’s going to be a standalone, then you could do that. You’re right, you’d want to be maybes lead gen for whatever you’re sitting in, right? So plus city. But if you’re going to create a brand out of it, which is what I recommend and create, that you can expand from multiple locations, then I would do it for just the brand at the top level. And then for every location. Even if you’re starting off with just one location, I would create that as an inner page of the G site. So it’s optimized, you know, has it like basically a location page and inner page on the sight as well as an ROI is expansion. White, which you order that an mg y b as well, which would be optimized for that particular location. And then for each subsequent location that you add, it gets another ROI is expansion stack, or ROI is expansion. Stack expansion, excuse me, whatever you get what I’m saying I would have an expansion for each individual location. And each location would be optimized for that, you know, whatever your primary keyword is plus the location. That’s the way I do it. And the reason why is because you can really build that entity up that brand name up, so that initially, it’s all going to be the same. But over time, as you add more like you continue to link build into it and everything else, it’s going to start to gain authority. And each time you want to add another location expand to a new area, then when you add another ArcGIS expansion, another inner, you know, inner page on the G site, it’s going to instantly benefit from all of the power that’s been accrued into that branded stack, and G site. Does that make sense? So initially, your workload is going to be the same. In fact, it might even be a little bit higher initially, because instead of optimizing the drive stack and the G site homepage for a particular location, you optimize it for the brand only. And then you have to have an expansion to target the specific location. So upfront, it might be a little bit more work just a tiny bit, but over time, it’s going to pay off, it’s going to produce a significant payoff, because each time you add a niche, another location is going to instantly benefit from the power of crude and will be a hell of a lot easier to get results from then starting over from scratch each time. So that makes sense. So that’s why I prefer to do it that way. I mean, I still like to have a WordPress site, guys unless like, as I said, it’s just a standalone, like a test project or something like that. But if it’s something that I plan on expanding, I like to have a WordPress site. But that’s just personal preference. As I said, Rob does everything with just g sites and just crushes it. So it’s up to you how you want to handle that. Okay.

Should You Use A Branded Or A Service Name For A Local Business Lead Gen?

What name should we use for local business Legion branded or service name included or end this limits locality? wanting to know if that will rank faster? Yeah. I don’t recommend Well, I reckon Semantic Mastery has been talking about branding for years, we got away from using EMD his exact match domains A long time ago, I always go for a brand. There can be a partial keyword in the brand name a lot of tree contractors do that. Like, you know, though, a lot of tree contractors will have the city name and their, their, their company name or, or Tree Service, obviously, what we’ll be at, which is a keyword tool. But I prefer to go with branded domains and brands, you know, I don’t like keyword stuffing the name. Why? Because think about this, guys. A lot of the times company names are like, especially for service contractors is really just a keyword. Right? It’s like, again, like call pepper Tree Service. If I was going to run with that as a name, right, I live in Cole pepper, called pepper Tree Service. That’s a keyword. So it’s hard to make it a brand. Because there’s ambiguation right off the bat because it’s technically a keyword. Right? It could also be a brand, but you have to overcome the fact that it’s a keyword in Google’s eyes to be recognized as a brand. Does that make sense? So you’re starting from an entity-based SEO standpoint, you’re starting at a disadvantage when you try to go after a generic or keyword-based type entity name. You’re better off going with something unique, that’s branded, it can have a partial match keyword in it, that’s okay. But my point is like I wouldn’t, especially if it’s going to be like you plan on expanding outside of a particular location that I wouldn’t want to include a location name, a specific city name in the brand name, because then you’d be pigeonholing yourself or limiting yourself to that one location. Right? So hopefully that makes sense.

Can You Target A Keyword That Is Searched On Google Even If It’s Not Understandable To Humans?

Can you target a keyword that is searched on Google, but there’s no meaning of it for humans, and they will not understand it. Yeah, sure, you can. That’s how a lot of people do single variable SEO tests. Again, why would you want to do that BB, you always ask these theoretical questions. And I have to ask you why I don’t understand why you would want to target a keyword that is searched on Google, but there is no meaning for it to humans. I’m not sure what you would want to do that for but yeah, sure you can. But no meaning to humans. Why? Like I don’t understand what the point of that would be. Anyway.

Let’s say that I want to change your phone number. I have a business and they’re one place that does not live. And there there’s one place that does not let me do that will putting on another place old number.

And the new number and company name. Will Google understand that the other place was a mistake. Not No. I don’t. And again, I don’t fully understand that question either but

No, because here’s the thing, if you’ve got an old phone number that’s outdated, and it’s published on the web, you know, all those places that are published, how you’d have to update all of them is my point. That’s why it’s better if you’ve got like, for example, NAP errors, right? We have data inaccuracy is for NAP for a particular business, it’s better, it’s wiser, it’s more effective to go clean up or correct. Incorrect citation data than it is to start publishing new citations with the correct data. Because all you’re doing at that point is diluting bad data. Right? You get weight. And trust me, I’ve, I’ve over the years, I’ve dealt with a lot of clients that had significant NAP issues. When I when they came to me, and I’ve learned over the years, the best thing to do is not start building news. I mean, starting to build new citations is going to happen naturally anyway, from the content marketing that we do. But the best way to get results from you know maps pack issues or maps ranking issues when there are any NAP data issues inconsistencies. The best thing to do the most effective thing to do is to update existing citations with correct data, which for that the best service that I’ve ever used is Loganix’s service. So if you go to semanticmastery.com/loganix, that’s L-o-g-a-n-i-x. It’s going to take you to their service, and they have a citation cleanup service, which I think 500 bucks might even be 600 bucks. It’s really good, though. It’s the best one. I’ve done this a number of times for clients over the years. And their services. I’ve used a bunch of services to do citation cleanups. And I’m telling you there is by far the most thorough service period. And to this day, every time I got a project or new client that has nav issues, the first thing I include the cost of this service, right in the proposal, when I get a new client, and typically I mark it up, and I also purchase through their account Loganix account that I set up for them through my own affiliate link as a Loganix affiliate, so that I get a markup Plus, I think it’s only 10% Commission, but I get a 10% commission as well. And then Loganix does all the work, and they’ve got their citation cleanup service, which is really, really good. Okay. So if their page loaded a little bit quicker, I’d show you that. Let’s go here, local SEO. And then they have some citation cleanup right here. And it looks like it starts at 497. And it takes about they say a six-week campaign, and they typically will run it for eight to 10 weeks, though. And it’s multiple stages, and it works really, really well. Okay.

How Would You Deal With Existing Social Profiles And Drive Stacks If Your Client Decides To Rebrand?

Jose says Hi there, say you have a client that decides to rebrand and merge multiple websites together or change over to a completely new brand for the domains, I would throw one. everything over to the right place. But how would you deal with social profiles and drive stacks? Would you rebuild from scratch? don’t want to waste link juice from the old stacks? Ooh, that’s a really good question. Um, well, with the drive stacks, remember, if you’re wanting the target the original site URLs to the new one, that you consolidate it, everything right, so the other domains that were now all redirected to the new one. So what I’m saying is that drive stacks are going to be targeting, if you had drive stacks built for these other brands or these other domains, right? That was pointing to those domains. And now those domains are 3012, the new money site, then all of that link flow is still going to be going through that redirect to the money site. The problem that I see with that, though, is it’s not from it from a link juice point, there’s no problem but from the data point and the information like the entity information, right, if you’ve got stuff out there from older brands that have now been consolidated into something new, and you’ve got those still remember on SEO from an SEO juice, right, so like a link equity standpoint, it’s flowing through the 301 redirects to your new domain, your new brand, it’s fine, you’re still gonna benefit from that. But you could ambiguous the entity information of the new entity because all of that is flowing from previously published stuff that had old entity info on it. So again, if you think about it from an SEO juice point, it’s fine. It’s still all flows through. But at the same time, I would worry about having all that other published data about an entity that no longer exists because it’s been consolidated in the new one. So that’s a really good question.

I’m not sure how I would handle that, I understand not wanting to lose all that power, but without, without going in and you know, editing the file, like the text and stuff like that on the phone, the files, essentially, the G sites and stuff too. You know, mentioned the entity information like NAP, for example, name, address phone number of the new entity, then I would be concerned that that might ambiguous the data, which in my case, and I’ve done that in the past, I’ve just killed the folders like just set them to, you know, not know, not public, so that the SEO juice will still flow, but they’re not, you know, being indexed and all that kind of stuff. So I don’t know, that’s the way that I’ve done it in the past was I’ve just set that in the folders too, you know, private, essentially. But go in, but again, it’s either that or kill it altogether, but I understand not wanting to waste the juice, but at the same time, if you want to, if you want to keep the public, then you’d have to go in and actually edit all and from what I know, I would want to go in and edit all of the, you know, published data about the old entity and update it with the new and that would be a shit ton of work. There’s a lot of there’s no question about that. That’s how I would do it. What I rebuild from scratch Yeah, I would have a new drive stack built for the new brand new consolidated brand. Absolutely. It but I understand not wanting to waste all the power built to the previous ones. So that’s about the only thing I could think of to do with that would be to you know, in the past, like I said, I’ve just set them to not public and kept them but they weren’t, you know, indexable or killed the folders entirely. Which sucks because then you lose all that juice, but it is what it is. Okay.

How Are You Managing Freelancers When You Start To Grow Your Team?

Jays up. He says, How are you guys managing freelancers, writers, Link builders, etc. When do you start to grow your team? Are you just using something like up work with teams? Or something better? Yeah, I mean, I, I just my team has only two people now. Well, I’ve got bloggers, but they’re, I don’t really manage them much. I’ve got two assistants that work for me on you know, Monday through Friday, though. And I just manage everything through slack. We’ve got a CRM that we use, Well, a couple of CRMs. I’ve got a high level for agency staff. And then I use a different CRM for real estate stuff. And then I’ve got slack channels that I manage everybody in, you know what Adam would be the better one to answer this one.

Yeah, I think it’s a this is this could be its own, like, full-on conversation. So I’ll try to keep this somewhat short. But I think it depends on what your needs are, like, Don’t go looking for a problem to solve before you have one. So if you’re feeling the crunch, and it sounds like j, you’re maybe looking at you’ve got a small team and you’re growing, you know, if it’s not working, then now’s a good time, you got the pain point. So I would start simple though, like for me right now I use ClickUp. And I work, you know, between full time, part-time and contractors have had like seven or eight people from different groups. So that’s one there’s a lot of these services like ClickUp Monday, trying to think of other ones, but you know, those are two good examples, you can go and check out and they usually have some sort of free tier, but they can get complicated and you can spend a lot of time figuring them out. So Trello is definitely a good place where you could get started with the simple like maybe you have one list of ideas or things or templates and then you have one have in progress and one has finished or needs to review something like that just to get you in the mindset of delegating more, because as you build up your team, your time should shift towards more effectively delegating and doing a very good job and spending a lot of time on that upfront so that you don’t spend as much time doing or as much time fixing because you gave someone shooting instructions and I say that because I’m you know growing pains myself going from a couple of people to more you know, shrinking, growing, you know, seeing that again and again. So just make sure that you have an actual need for this don’t do more than what you need, but be aware of what your options are and stay simple rather than get complicated fast.

That was a good answer. And I like what you preface everything with is don’t look for a solution or don’t try to find a solution for a problem you don’t have yet I’ve tried Monday and click up in some of those and you know I quit because exactly what you said you they there’s so much stuff that you can do with those and there are different ways that you can build them and all that different you know, you can go down a rabbit hole and get lost and just tweaking the platforms and so you know, my point and trying to use them was to be more efficient. But then I found that it was taking so much time just learning how to use it and setting it up and all that kind of stuff and working it in you know creating workflows and all that that you What’s working for me what a small a very lean team like I have is just something super simple, which is just slack. And I’ve calendar notifications. And then we have tasks and stuff that my CRM will automatically assign to, you know, the appropriate, you know, a person for projects and things like that. So I use just those tools were, which were things that we were already familiar with, I didn’t see the need, after trying like Monday and click up, I saw that it just was overkill for my lean operation. So, you know, do what’s easy and simple. And, you know, if you’re going to be growing a big team, you might need to look into something like that, for sure. But just, you know, keep it I like what Adam said, is that you got to just be careful, because you’ll you could end up, you know, in an effort and in the pursuit of trying to be more efficient, you could kill your productivity. You know, yeah, it’s taken us a while, like, I’m glad I went with ClickUp. I used Monday, I switched to click up, and I’m glad I did, but it was a learning curve. And, you know, there’s a lot of time invested in that and figuring out how best to use it. So I can teach the team how best to use it. Now they’re helping out too. But you know, someone’s got to figure it out, start with the thing I will say is investing time and effort in your processes upfront. So if you go to SEOshield.com I believe Bradley, you built that in process three, right? That’s a checklist.

No, that’s an mgyb.co/process finger there that you’ll see. You gotta it’s behind an opt-in. Well, now guys, you got to submit your email to get to it. But if it’s MGYB.co/process and that was built in process Street, yes,

gotcha. Okay, yeah, I have that mixed up. And so I would just say, if you’re going to spend time somewhere, to spend it on the process side, and it doesn’t have to be paid service, could be Google Docs could be Trello. With a checklist, or, you know, if you like something sleek, like process Street, something that you can easily duplicate it’s made for this. But yeah, put your time and effort into the processes. And then you can fill out the rest of that over time. And for years, all I did for process docs was Google, Google Docs, and screencast, which I would upload to YouTube screencast recorder, and that would so for years, that’s all I did. And to this day, when I’m first developing a process, that’s where I do it the same way I record a screencast video and I type, I start typing out the steps in a Google Doc. And then once I get the rough draft of the process, done, the process documentation is done, then I transfer that now to process street, and I process Street, it’s paid, I think I only pay like 35 bucks a month or something. So it’s worth it to me. But it makes it much more polished. And you can create checklists and things like that from and embed videos directly into it. And you know, all kinds of really cool stuff that you can do with process Street. But still to this day, when I’m first starting to develop a process document, I do it with just Google Docs and a screencast video until I get my first you know, the rough first draft of it done. And it works really, really well guys, and for many years, that’s all I did was Google Drive, and YouTube, well, you know, screencasts that I would upload to YouTube. And that worked for years. So you don’t need to overcomplicate that either.

One thing I will say is two things rather a little bit of shiny object. But check out the notion as well. If you like putting stuff together yourself, that’s a great one took me a while to realize the power there. I’m using that for marketing calendars and some other stuff too. And then last but not least, if you do Google 360, the numbers 360 delegations, there’s a great article, I forget who it is or who referred me, but it’s profitfactory.com/360delegation, it’s a fantastic article on why you should be delegating and doing the processed stuff and where you should be spending your time. And you know, kind of directed my attention for. I really do need to be putting in more time. For example, the vision of a project, you know, this isn’t for a tiny little task, but for maybe a project, like what do I want? You know, what does it look like? Why are we doing this and sharing a little bit with the team? So it’s not just, hey, go build this. And this doesn’t have to be some complex product process, but sharing with the team, so they understand a little bit of the bigger picture, because anyone who’s involved in this type of stuff, probably would like and benefit from a little bit of it. And then the resources like what resources do they need? Do you already have LastPass? or whatever? are you sharing all the passwords? Do you need to record anything? Do they need software? like running through this checklist? And then going and what’s the definition of done? Do you have screenshots of what is a good done project or task is do you have an example? Do you have something they can compare it to? Is there a schedule? And he was going through this and saying, Oh wow, for myself? who’s like, Yeah, I got to spend more time upfront so that I spend less time getting involved in it down the road when it Yeah, I just told him to get started and lucked out 20% of what they needed.

Yeah. Yeah. And I mean, it sucks. Because, you know, a lot of the times it’s so much easier just to do with, you know, completed a task on your own than it is because it’s, it’s like, you know, this is only going to take me 20 minutes. And if I got to create a process, you know, process documentation, it’s gonna take three hours, you know, if to do this 20-minute task, I’ll just do the damn task. But the problem with that is, then the next time that task has to be done, guess who does it again? Do you know what I mean? And so it and I have I struggle with that all the time. Because, you know, sometimes some of the processes that I want to go develop are super complex. And I know that it’s gonna take me days, literally days to develop that process out. And so I’m like, Fuck, it’ll only take me two hours to do this, I’ll just do it myself. You know, because I don’t have the time to create this process don’t train right now. But then the next time that situation occurs again, it’s me that has to do it again. And so you know, and I’ve got invest the time again. And so it’s like, you have to constantly Wait, like, should you just go ahead and execute the task, and move on to the next thing? Or should you invest the time to develop the process, so that number one, if it’s you, that has to do it, again, you’ve got it’s done consistent, right? That the quality is consistent because you’ve got a checklist now that you can run down to make sure that you don’t miss anything, or whatever. But second, and more importantly, you can hand that off to somebody else to where you never have to do it again. And so to me, even the really complex tasks that require sometimes multiple levels of process docs, you know, I try to at least start working on those like plugging away at them a little bit at a time where I might know more complex tasks, I might say, Okay, look, I’m gonna spend 30 minutes a day or an hour a day over the next, you know, two weeks developing this, this process training. That way, I don’t feel like it has to be done today. But at the same time, I’m making progress on it a little bit at a time, if that makes sense.

So yeah, very true.

Is There Any Harm In Running Too Many PRs In A Short Period Of Time?

We’re almost out of time, let’s run through the last couple. Let’s see, we’ll say hey, gents, I have a client that wants to run one press release every three days, the manufacturing plant is supplying a range of new products, and they want to be number one, before any other supplier, I did a test with four times or four PRs in four weeks, and it worked a treat. He now wants me to push that further and do about 10 PRs in one month. These are four different products, and each has a separate landing page. Is there any harm in running this many PRs?

No, not at all. I’ve got a few projects that I typically publish eight PRs per month on and then I know Rob has done. He’s just spam the shit out. Like I say, spam, it’s not really spam, but he’s done a whole bunch of press releases in a week. Like, I don’t know what the number is, but I know he’s done multiple press releases in a week for a particular project, just to test it and it always produces good results. So no more won’t hurt you. Okay. Good question. By the way, Gordon says, Hey, guys, hope everyone is still well and COVID. Free. I believe it used to be imperative for a local business to have their site ranking on the first page of Google or at least on the second page. In order to rank in the GMB three-pack, is that currently essential? Or can their site rank way down and organic search results and you can still get a three-pack ranking by doing completely on-page GMB listing optimization. And by targeting the GMB listing itself, with press releases, citations, drive stacks, etc, from MGYB? And if so, can you do it with the middle of the road quantity and quality of reviews? Thank you very much. As usual for you. Yeah, no, I know what you mean about there’s been a connection between maps ranking and organic ranking, but I could talk for years, all I did was optimized for maps, and I didn’t give a shit at all about organic rankings, I’ve started to do more on the organic side of things now because the maps proximity filter is much tighter now it’s much narrower. So getting maps listing to rank, you know, outside of its immediate physical location area is more difficult now. So that’s why I’ve started working also on organic rankings again. Because it’s but long story short, I know what you mean about the connection between the two, but I’ve got a ton of GMB assets that the organic rankings are basically nonexistent like I just didn’t even try ever. And so some of them are ranking in the three-pack. But I’ve got you know, it’s page four before you find the first organic ranking for that, you know, keyword, for example. So I don’t know that the connection is still there. I know that I will, you know, I try to do a balance of the two now for, you know, new projects, but for older projects that all I did was focused on GMB ranking. I’ve got many, many examples of that, that the organic rankings are just really shitty, you know, page three, page four, whatever. But it’s ranking in the three-pack if that makes sense. So I don’t think it matters. Honestly. I could be wrong. They might, somebody else might have some now, if you get your organic ranking to rank well, will it help to benefit the maps ranking? I think so. But if you’re just focusing on maps, I don’t think that the organic rankings make much of a difference, at least in my own experience. Now, again, there might be some other data out there that conflicts with But for my from my own experience, it doesn’t really matter for maps rankings. That makes sense.

What’s The Best Use Of A Newly Acquired Domain With 100+ Links?

Okay, the last question is going to be from Robert and we’re going to wrap it up. Robert says, Thanks for continuing Hump Day hanging out with us all. You’re welcome. We enjoy this. If I have a money site, I just acquired a domain with 100 plus links, mostly follow links with high authority and relative anchors. Great. What’s the best way to use this newly acquired domain 301 redirects? Yeah, if it’s relevant, you can do that. I don’t like to do that a lot. But if it was a domain, where it was topically relevant to what you’re going to be forwarding it to, or 301 redirecting it to, then that means the inbound link profile from that domain that you purchased is likely relevant. Also double-check that if it’s relevant, then yes, do a 301 redirect directly to the money site. If it’s not fully irrelevant, but there’s a lot of power built to it, then what I would recommend that you do is 301. redirect that to a buffer page, like an ID page, for example, hosted on an s3 bucket and Amazon s3 bucket as opposed direct, instead of direct to the root domain, the multi-site domain, that makes sense, it’s fully relevant. And it’s got a clean link profile with you know, the inbound link profiles topically relevant and yes, you can redirect directly to the money site, the root domain is fine. But if it’s not 100% relevant, but it’s got a lot of power and a somewhat clean link profile, but it’s just not fully relevant, then I would 301 redirect that to a buffer site. I prefer to use the Amazon s3 hosted ID page for that. But you could do it like a G site would be great for that. You know, pretty much any one of your tier one branded entity profiles. You could redirect to that but the G site would be a really good one for that Id page. Might is one I typically use for that. That makes sense. Okay, guys, so I can get to all the questions but most of them did get answered. So thank you guys for being here.

The 1 Bitcoin Show- Simon Dixon!

Hello everybody that is adam meister the bitcoinmeister the disrupt meister welcome to the one bitcoin exhibit in these days is November the seventh 2018 powerful hand long-term thinking uncomplicated offended by means of selling o.K. Now we have obtained a very distinct center of the day show for everybody Simon Dixon is the designated visitor you may have all visible him on the exhibit earlier than he is a CEO and co-founder of bank to the long run he’s coming in from Italy in these days good day Simon the way you doing good to be here there’s been a at the same time it appears it’s been somewhat whilst however I want to have a flashback to something that used to be happening a 12 months ago without a doubt it used to be it used to be on a Sunday it was November the 11th well it used to be the Saturday it was November eleventh was a Saturday and that Simon came on my show on that very day and it’s linked to beneath Simon’s Twitter is also linked to garments normally assess out the link section under persons all forms of affiliate hyperlinks down there also however yeah a year ago you came on the exhibit 2x had simply died and people began to pump up B money and at one factor be forged by using market cat was once the quantity two cryptocurrency on the planet it overtook aetherium you came on the exhibit you calmed everyone down there were all forms of individuals pronouncing extremely like sell my Bitcoin for my B cash for P money is B money the true Bitcoin of course now we all seem again on it and we smile we all know bitcoin is the next Bitcoin but it was it used to be just a wild scene and it was a best video once more peep persons into it determine it out beneath so here we are a yr later and bitcoin remains to be here be money is still right here however anything that I under no circumstances would have estimated be money it appears like it’ll split on on November fifteenth which is style of ironic for the reason that it used to be formed via a cut up so uh tell us your ideas on the difficulty and how that is advanced over time and in case you could have envisioned the sort of big money for Cup just a 12 months in the past after we have been speakme about this yeah well I imply gold I suppose I have to watch a video again considering that it gave the impression of time moves so quick I can’t even recall what was once going down again then but if I if I remember effectively we were if it was once a 2x time we have been about to hit a 3rd Bitcoin I feel and folks had been seeking to look at all the distinct thoughts of tips on how to scale Bitcoin one among them was which is the the present BTC Bitcoin is used to be looking at off chain scaling and then you had the rough fork where bit principal was threatening to create his possess variant of Bitcoin and Bitcoin cash got here from that in the event you consider at first wrote previous there wasn’t even a line to it he used to assert you realize i am not i am now not rather definite i am now not the crater a bit money or i’m now not something to do with it but then a couple of months later he decided that this is the usual Satoshi imaginative and prescient and obtained in the back of Bitcoin money on the grounds that it had one other philosophy on tips on how to scale and that was once via better blocks after which we were going to have the mixture the the normal contract the that happened within the scaling debate where we had been gonna have both larger blocks and Segway which would allow off chain scaling and we had been gonna have the three after which the three communities can divide however Jeff Kozik who was once the lead developer of Segway 2x on the time made up our minds that he wants to center of attention on other matters and he looked at his possess coin or token or his own project he used to be engaged on and there was a entire person activated so fork the place users will look in tech and it was cancelled and so that’s often the place we where we left off if I consider adequately we had been in the midst of the Korea all of a sudden becoming a large player China I you know i’m not certain of the exact timing is so rough to consider but China used to be within the system of banning exchange of tokens and Bitcoin and yeah we the and in Korea used to be becoming a more and more large participant and on one of the crucial Korean exchanges i will t remember which one it used to be I suppose it might have been bit farm or anything like that there was once just an substantial amount of Bitcoin cash being pumped into the ecosystem and various Korean won was being used with a purpose to purchase Bitcoin cash and you understand there was various fard round that there was once this flip inning and men and women were very concerned about if they’ve bought a few of that Bitcoin money whether there was once you recognize the the worry uncertainty and doubt the THAAD used to be at an all-time high at that point and i think we have been doing a relaxed down you recognize bitcoins now not so easy to replicate it has some certain homes that are very very tough if not unattainable to repeat once more and Bitcoin i guess over the yr we’ve got we have now we had been in a significant bull market an overextended market and now we have had a chilled result ever because the place Bitcoin has form of been excited by progress and DNA and and building and we have had a a correction of the cost of filtering out of the the weak hand you realize the humans which can be nonetheless that are nonetheless around you understand were frequently right here to stay and we had been yeah we have now obvious the hard individuals can happen and we saw a few extra of them I feel it was once adam meister that created the bitcoin dividend phrase david finish yeah and the bitcoin dividend was a very you already know nice means of looking at it that it used to be simply free money if humans has an extra philosophy of the way to scale bitcoin or take it extra then people can go off and do what they want and despite the fact that they wish to create a scam it still would emerge as in some free bitcoin dividends which used to be a really fascinating philosophy and now the place are we now good we now have had the cut up it is why a split is not rather the correct manner it can be people of the notion in the one-of-a-kind options for scaling and despite the fact that you do not quite consider within the one of a kind solutions you recognize many humans feel that BTC is BTC and there’s a neighborhood that desired to make optimized for the consumer case a cash with Bitcoin cash and and that’s obtained its possess community and what we see him correct now could be that one of a kind personalities are quite using cut up ideologies within the Bitcoin money group so we discovered that for someone that was promoting their Bitcoin money over the last 12 months you were almost definitely selling it slightly predominant on account that bit primary is the brand new Satoshi Nakamoto of you understand he’s got that well bit could in the organization which is set to be public has bought over 1,000,000 Bitcoin cash which is an exciting number considering that’s in regards to the the identical number of Bitcoin the the normal Satoshi Nakamoto whilst it has the tremendous difference is that Satoshi Nakamoto has left the industry and there is not a character that can be attacked besides the fact that children that folks would love to wear as bit foremost that owns 1,000,000 Bitcoin cash is now a public manufacturer with a fiduciary obligation to its shareholders that is sat on a ginormous role and if Bitcoin money does grow to be cash for the arena then large identify turns into the Federal Reserve just about seeing that they may be able to manipulate the financial coverage by way of shopping and promoting these 1 million Bitcoin money and if they in the event that they succeed at growing cash for the sector then bitcoin you realize bit primary becomes the Federal Reserve and it is a particularly rather fascinating state of affairs however now we have now noticeable unique ideologies where as slightly fundamental could be very much curious about the tokenization person case they need between money to get one of the most results that aetherium has had when a theory and construct itself through the ICO markets has had a significant correction now but etherium well-nigh created gigantic disruption in capital markets through allowing people to issue their own tokens and promote it to others and now that is relocating via a security token phase however Bitcoin money is watching to capture some of the theorems market share and there is significant disagreement about how to try this so you have obtained Craig Wright with n ting that believes the tokenization is just not the main user case for Bitcoin cash and correctly you will have to focus on cash and that they are going to want billions of transactions per 2d in order that they need to increase the block dimension to a hundred twenty eight megabytes and then you’ve gotten acquired all different interesting characters which have come out of the wooden worm so you have got had Cobra that used to had been in the website Bitcoin org or I feel he nonetheless does i’m no longer certain the trouble with that anymore and you know he’s looking to create a version of Bitcoin cash that has replay safety and doesn’t have any of the alterations after which finish chain wishes to create a version that doesn’t have replay safeguard and bit primary and Jihan we want to upgrade and create a further variation and relatively we’re having a identical factor but really all these different ideologies about what bitcoin money is and is being driven through these personalities and these tribes are gathering behind them founded upon what you believe bitcoin money should be so i’m relatively sat on the side extra of a spectator I take into account at first when the rough fork was once going down with Bitcoin my fundamental situation my quantity one drawback was once that if we had two versions of Bitcoin then the fixed cash provide the the 21 million Bitcoin you realize in inflation expense whatever you need to name it constant deliver the fiscal coverage that is the phrase I was once looking for would be deviated and you’ll now have 42 million Bitcoin and if that you may tough fork and that you may have 84 million Bitcoin then we now have simply destroyed one of the vital essential points of Bitcoin which is to begin with the capability to earn your money secondly the abilities spend but all important that offers it the story price houses is the fixed provide that cannot be violated and has consensus across the whole community so that used to be my fundamental predicament nevertheless it turned out which you could cut up off a neighborhood and bitcoin continues to be Bitcoin and Bitcoin caches between money i do not buy the argument that you realize with any such is more Bitcoin than the other I get that you simply could have different philosophies round that but if I requested you to send me Bitcoin you are gonna ship me BTC you are no longer going to send me b tch and so bitcoin is Bitcoin and if I say send me some Bitcoin persons who sent me some BTC and in addition my BTC tackle anyway I was once so that is it the the state of play that we’re i assume a yr on i’m what hater and i believe every person’s gonna have some you realize a few coins and so every person pumping into Bitcoin money correct now when you consider that they’re hoping that two coins are going to be worth multiple and so persons are changing their crypto to Bitcoin money in an effort to get a couple of them and hoping that they will be valued at more and then maybe go back to BTC I do not know speculators will be speculators unless what they need to do well that is my query so that you conclusion you believe that there will be to be cat it is going to split on November 15 they may be gonna be two cash from all i will see you recognize there’s there may be just a few major influential players in the Bitcoin money community you have got bought you bought very so much one of the most important difference between Bitcoin and Bitcoin cash from my estimation is that while you might have pockets of centralization within Bitcoin ie you already know some information a group of influential builders or more you understand centralization of special quantities of hash energy of mining energy and gear what we noticed with Bitcoin is that they do not fairly collude they usually don’t overlap too much so the customers and the builders the miners the firms that attempt to collude to create segue to X do not need adequate have an effect on to impact the entire group however what we’re seeing with Bitcoin cash is that we have these you already know personalities which have big have an impact on when you consider that you know take a company like bit most important it controls tremendous mining Paul has a large quantity of the hash power invest in all of the corporations owns one million Bitcoin cash is the one that created the ABC fork in the first situation and acquired the builders to create it also is invested in a variety of the media shops after which you might have bought you understand different different other you already know one-of-a-kind type of you recognize and then you received any chain that became a persona with Craig Wright and absolutely you’ve gotten received Roger there we don’t know where he’s gonna go next and say i’m pretty exact that they’re now not gonna reach consensus on that one and we’re gonna have a tokenization vs.Ginormous blocks split and we will have a further splitting of the Bitcoin money community and do you do like once we went through the original B cash for Bitcoin plus B cash was worth more than just Bitcoin prior to the fork do you see that identical thing taking place the B money in money plus new P cash being worth greater than B cast before happen it is an exciting question and what i’m really enthusiastic about seeing for the primary time is what occurs for a rough fork in a undergo market we saw the very first you know break up with aetherium versus aetherium basic and the sum of the two tokens used to be better than it was before we were in a particularly sideways market at the time I feel my battery’s about to go so i’m simply gonna plug it in a 2nd k before we go well Simon’s plugging in thanks our Raptor men for the super chat man and every body pound that like button i like how Simon introduced up that is going to be our threat to see what a predominant fora essential crypto dividend is like in a endure market we haven’t seen this yet so this shall be uh Oh Simon uh he dropped off there fully whoa what you’ll be able to be again don’t worry anyway yeah it should be intriguing to look how this uh how this develops and i wish to hear what Simon has to assert I imply he brings some surely some interesting insight to the desk and do not worry he will be talking about that tether flood later additionally he’s got some insight on that challenge and cling on let’s see I received a display my Twitter here – obtained to do plenty of stuff to make certain Simon gets back on whether we acquired right here oh battery went he said ok grasp on appear at this that is reside that is reside stuff for you guys you received to like it in the meantime at the same time we eagerly look ahead to Simon’s return we were in this type of such an important part in the exhibit any one acquired any questions over there any one oh i will be able to answer your questions within the reside chat i can sincerely seem it oh yeah he’ll be back on quickly but so a little bit intermission if you bought questions for undertaking for me we can obviously be in a position to answer them so throw them in the market now it is a time for me to to repeat them i’ll say this there are a number of humans getting occupied with not again i’m just looking at this with popcorn k dude i’m now not proficient just in view that we’re speakme about be cast doesn’t mean go get B cash however yeah it is in stepped art cost is obviously pumping since humans are just now finding out about this fork although it can be been out within the information for relatively a while it simply shows you that insider insider knowledge is available in the market however humans decide upon to ignore it and that’s why it turns into insider expertise Martin Carter says how a lot does he reckon on every be quick be worth – III doubt he’ll provide us that however I asked him I mean I mean going at it proper now let’s assume B cash proper now’s worth factor one among a BTC you know what i will ask a better I imply a question that’s equivalent that is which be cash goes to win that’s a whatever I need to ask him also but should you come back right here you’re back sure you’re the show ought to go on the battery dies and we still we plug in Macario do we carry on baby pound that like button every body if you would like recoveries like that so you’re saying yeah that throughout the etherion traditional etherium fork that was once a that used to be a sideways market that used to be that used to be the summer time of 2016 I believe and now you are about to claim you recognize what to expect in a in a bear market good yeah it’s obviously an altcoin undergo market what do we count on from a fork so what what do we assume from a fork oh you are muted you’re muted Simon yeah yeah yeah yeah with a Bitcoin and Bitcoin cash we have been obviously in a bull market so we had every person did very well some thing that they had I suppose it trended around that nought point one and then from time to time it went up you understand naught factor to BTC to be c8 after which came go into reverse to naught 8 BTC to BCH so whichever role you had you kind of fairly did the equal or wasn’t an excessive amount of in it and but everyone did good in 2017 but this isn’t a bull market the place Ivor in a in you already know a consolidation section or we’re nonetheless in a undergo market so i don’t are aware of it’s your playing if you’re if you are moving over to Bitcoin money simply to get two types there is no warranty that these are gonna be worth more than simply having Bitcoin money on its own or leaving it the place it was once so is solely speculative however it will be interesting to look we’ve had a sideways market we now have had a rough fall sure in a bull market now let’s have a look at what occurs if in case you have a tough fall sure in a endure market and which of them you feel will win out will be the more valuable one the bit principal variant or the end chain variation I’ve received I’ve received nothing to examine that on III don’t know sufficient concerning the the communities i know that vitalic jumped out on Twitter announcing you understand use this opportunity to eliminate Craig correct considering he very famously at a conference I was at in Korea called him a you understand a fraud to his face and you realize vitalic thinks that this can be a just right opportunity to get him out of the group who is aware of I imply you already know Craig Wright has built a tribe around him nevertheless it some individuals take various offense to one of the most approach that he’s and the way he offers and say I failed to they might see it’s mainly going to be determined by Roger endure whichever means he goes he’ll take the community with it and he’s long past as mining pool as well with Bitcoin calm now you you acknowledged a bit named pinga relatively a tremendous holder of a be money and also you additionally point out their IPO which it hasn’t happened but has it no however I mean that is taking place it is it can be taking place this might aid them make once more if the 2 coins add as much as greater than the prior coin that is gonna be a bunch of free on new coins for bit title I imply you understand there is some rather exciting user cases s so bit Mainers do to go on the Hong Kong inventory alternate and as you understand one of the most SE C’s within the case of nasdaq listed and the big apple stock trade listed in red sheet listed stocks it is had a real giant trouble towards individuals pump in their inventory rate by way of using the phrase blockchain and crypto currencies now Hong Kong is actually coming out and taking a more aggressive approach to laws a crypto companies is watching to you already know bit Mex is likely one of the principal organizations there and it can be looking to regulate the the futures marketplace for crypto currencies and so it’s going to be quite exciting to look how you realize these perceived movements that might be could be might be seen as market manipulation of a stock fee which is a heavily regulated area in absence of a lot of the laws and manipulation legal guidelines and rules around the crypto market what have an impact on that’s surely gonna have and it’s just a very interesting time if you are type of using crypto shenanigans that is causing humans to leap into your stalk and causing parabolic raises in your inventory fee after which that’s dumping and brief agents are coming in you realize you’re gonna have some particularly exciting times as we see this emergence between these two one-of-a-kind worlds stock markets me you know creators of cryptocurrencies this is a excellent questions from the audience and we’re trending towards this style of query anyway what’s your opinion about the institutional developments like bots like backed be a KKT what’s uh how’s that progressing to your mind I consider the institutional side of the market is growing there isn’t any doubt in my intellect that the following bull market is going to be institutional led we’re altering you recognize the the nature of who was once at the back of and and what drives the market and Kryptos the customary consumer instances of crypto used to be coming from a libertarian mindset and in addition giving persons the capability to purchase matters that the government would not want them to purchase and do matters that the federal government could now not need them to do and people have been the normal foundations of Bitcoin and drove all the volume in the early cases then you definately had retailers come along through firms like bitpay that have been selling their Bitcoin for kilos that was usually being bought to people that desired to buy medicines on the Silk avenue that used to be the normal person case and then you definitely started moving towards you know probably the most traits that we noticed with aetherium and icos where men and women had been surely buying cryptocurrency with the intention to get into different cryptocurrencies and then you saw that it was once the twenty seventeen was once only retail driven you know crowdfunding driven crypto bull market where each person was once participating specifically younger individuals and i bought surely in my intellect that the subsequent one’s going to be institutional pushed you realize the associations have had ample time to figure out their coverage round these items and all of the most of the corporations are driving those institutional options it’s no longer a market i am chiefly involved in myself but i can see the influence that it’s going to have for persons that in reality wish to use Bitcoin the way it was designed own it spend it and hold it themself and have a self sovereign future and the fixed money deliver and institutions are just gonna suck various that crypto out of the market and that i think that’s gonna force the subsequent bull market as we you understand as we i am not seeing i am no longer forecasting anything like that except at least mid twenty nineteen but these are all welcome traits and associations on the end of the day there is a there’s a lord money in that market they usually simply are not gonna be keeping treasure wallets and using Bitcoin for the way it used to be meant however they’re gonna suck various the bitcoins out of the market in order to improvement folks that keep them on their possess hardware wallets as the money deliver strikes from individuals that had been utilising them more on the whole to the almighty ginormous children of institutional cash yes well now let’s talk in regards to the opposite of immense Hodler holders and i’ll stated that how a lot shut you recognize and we’re speaking about be solid before how a lot closer are we to seeing crypto being adopted for everyday transactions on a better scale since I mean that is what be cash is I mean that’s their dream they want critten and dashes also that crypto is going for use for every day transactions on an awfully significant scale are we getting almost that or are we nonetheless beautiful some distance away well this is likely one of the matters that I do particularly admire the Bitcoin cash community for on the grounds that it does remind me a number of the old days when individuals have been fairly really occupied with each single service provider that will begin accepting Bitcoin and so they’re really fairly pushing for adoption and they may be doing everything they are able to to get individuals to wish to use crypto and that i appreciate that when you consider that I believe it’s an most important a part of the ecosystem making Bitcoin extra spendable it’s the reason why we’re looking to scale and in phrases of you realize adoption on that aspect we’re we’re investors in bitpay and transaction volume very a lot dry it can be across the cost a Bitcoin however those are individuals which can be changing it and you understand and that is them we’ve bought the entire with stable coin for phase that we see him proper now where all people’s looking to have their possess stable coin which enables individuals to stay in crypto but add some extra steadiness there and that i consider we’re gonna see the following layer of purposes whereby which you can spend Bitcoin you should utilize Bitcoin the pockets will take out all the geekiness and it is going to be held within some sort of steady coin that doesn’t leave crypto and then gets modified again by using some style of atomic swap that is optimizing for the blockchain that can perform that brief-time period venture in probably the most most beneficial manner and then you definitely store it again in the you know the only crypto that’s bought a short of being difficult cash which is Bitcoin and and that i believe it can be a it is a it is a positive development that we’re seeing where you are seeing folks pushing for all these distinct consumer circumstances however i’m nonetheless not seeing you already know that no longer many individuals accepting crypto there is big friction I in my view have been going through the process of seeking to buy my condo with Bitcoin and it can be been a couple of nine months approach of simply looking to get the bank to conform to be given the money and figuring out that it originated from Bitcoin despite the fact that the entire Bitcoin i’m making use of to buy the house i will be able to even take it back to the Genesis block where it used to be mined and show that it did not even hit a Silk street or something alongside the best way however you continue to received you know real for real friction between these markets which is riding the individual that virtually is making an attempt to sell us that condo to need to simply receive Bitcoin direct due to the fact that the financial institution is making it this kind of painful and horrible experience and say if any person like me that is received the entire forms everything I would need as any individual that is familiar with the intersection between fiat and crypto and the laws round that you understand if it’s kind of of a battle for me then it’s going to be a bit of a struggle for others that might be have no longer you recognize put print as much diligent forms mind you no tracking you recognize preserving all of the forms at the back of their transactions and looking to get it into the market but the good factor is is I think the developer the outcome has simply been the sort of painful expertise to him however I suppose he’s just going to take a Bitcoin himself and do it the way in which that I requested him to do it nine months in the past instead than going via this stinking banking process that is censoring no longer enabling me to spend my cash and making me lose cash in view that of the political environment round some thing’s taking place between the usa Europe and excellent Britain we know that’s great that you simply acquired at the least you received an additional guy who now considers a Bitcoin to be legitimate you’ll be able to take legit he’ll he’ll take a bunch of tremendous things from you now I imply that’s that is a constructive out of it obtained a brand new a Bitcoin consumer well let’s uh you recounted stable coins and that i we weren’t going to talk about this but i am gonna hear your so you consider they may be here to stay you you consider they bought a reputable use case or with out you well the the user came in stable coins they’re a very very valuable thing I mean they allow folks to transfer cash between exchanges so now you may have bought a coin base steady coin i can take my crypto out of coin base and put it into one more alternate that is accepting americaDC or i will be able to exchange it for USD T if i do not just like the credit rating of the censorship the coin base is more likely to have as a centralized university or if i don’t like the credit score price rating of the Federal Reserve and i don’t need to put it in USD or if i don’t just like the credit standing of BitFenix for the reason that of one of the most information is popping out then i don’t ought to hold it in USD T but it surely allows us to head so you realize I imply quite a few our crypto ball market a variety of the volume steady hypothesis and the truth that you know the most important trade is the most important alternate in our industry with the aid of Nance doesn’t take delivery of fear for the reason that it can be all held in tether with slightly you recognize a bit of Phoenix financial institution has allowed that exchange to end up more beneficial in some circumstances than to each a financial institution and riding a variety of the progress in the industry because individuals don’t ought to convert it out into the worry and go by way of probably the most excruciating agony and that happens when you generate wealth in this enterprise and check out and get it again into the the fiat world considering the fact that of the disasters of the banking process just isn’t a crypto drawback it’s a banking trouble and stable coins simply enable you to have more friction extra alternative arbitrage create extra efficient pricing between exchanges they usually’re an awfully useful software very valuable mechanism and one day they will be used with a purpose to hedge probably the most volatility in a in a transaction and the very brief term without even figuring out that you are going through a stable coin while not having to place it within the financial institution or convert this can be a to me it can be a particularly important a part of the ecosystem and whilst i might much as a substitute you know be using Bitcoin adoption on the finish of the day unless the bigger world would not feel that bitcoins a scam a Ponzi scheme have been a currency for drug purchasers then it’s always going to be a volatile foreign money after which ultimately it can attain to you know extra of a median of trade or a unit of account after which we won’t need stable cash however for the period in-between you still for customers to use this in very priceless manner steady cash have useful utility all proper so I wanna rapidly we will speak about one specific stable coin in a 2nd thank you eventually in McDowell for the five dollar super verify you you rock and yeah man it is it’s crazy juggling round here man okay so steady coin tether plenty of thought about it which what’s your take the enjoyable is over so the intent why i’m in Italy proper now could be i’m on the bit for next year keep a assembly we supported BitFenix of their hack recovery I consider it was roughly two years ago after they went through the unfortunate event of utilizing a little bit NGO which had a compromise in the science that ended in the gigantic theft of tons of Bitcoin after which they put together a coin to be able to bail out the alternate instead than dropping all people’s money and doing the Mount Gork state of affairs they came up with their own economic engineering utilizing crypto and we supported them in enabling individuals to transform that crypto into fairness through our securities industry at financial institution to the futurecom and it grew to become out to be one of the lucrative profitable highest return investments we now have had on the platform and so you recognize BitFenix they have been i guess the inventors or the the those that had I imply tether used to be used for years and years and years and no person used to be relatively utilising it however in the course of the crypto increase you know you had all these exchanges come up like finance and would be and okx that didn’t take worry deposits and we’re utilizing tether because the mechanism for well-nigh no longer having to go by way of all of the hassles of the banking relationships and retaining the bank and we at all times want that tether was you know backed through as shareholders there is handiest so much we are able to certainly say about it but we knew that the the money was there the venture is is that it’s an awfully very problematic concern considering that there may be a tremendous failure within the banking process and that’s that banks do not want to see cryptocurrency succeed and they do not want to aid any trade that has a extra privateness centric policy round cryptocurrency at the same time at the same time and BitFenix used to be that exchange they usually grew to become you realize the the the person who it used to be protecting the entire worry for the entire other exchanges like by using Nance to thrive and that grew to be an extraordinarily easy goal for people to criticize because at the end of the day any bank that supported BitFenix would get attacked careworn you understand had each single thing and so they and these the flood stirs were well-nigh doing extra damage to the crypto market than they might potentially understand and accordingly of this so it Phoenix eventually you understand has located the financial institution that and is that is virtually we’re virtually inclined to simply say that the cash is on deposit and put an finish to the flood stir so they are attempting and close the unfold on the grounds that traders have taken expertise of the fact that and tethers buying and selling at a reduction which is that means that they may be you recognize purchasing that stated there is an arbitrage in it by using withdrawing dollars and that is that’s developing challenges for that but at the end of the day now the bank has come alongside and so they’re an awfully courageous bank given that they’re getting the entire threats and the whole lot that comes along with looking to aid our enterprise when you are a financial institution seeking to help our industry you get put through big media pressure huge regulatory stress and the whole thing that incorporates that so you understand we’re we’re we’re at the end of i hope trying to exhibit them prove that the money was there it constantly has been there however no matter what they do anyway people are going to create their own reports and it does provide a priceless mechanism for keeping one of the most centralized businesses you recognize extra honest on this industry however it does a satisfactory disservice when any bank that tries to support our industry gets a mentally you realize friends underneath put below such stress that eventually the correspondent banks that are then connected to the central banks and then you definitely try to receive your money from an trade and you need to go through your correspondent bank that then go by means of your regional financial institution so there may be 5 parties in that transaction that can certainly censor it or cause problems then you definitely do have problems with trying to get the fiat cash around the procedure additionally riding the user case for staying in crypto within the first situation and you are aware of it’s this friction that we’re definitely seeing and tether used to be fairly a utility to check out and bridge some of that gap and resolve some of that trouble and the one explanations we have exchanges that I would be in finance and okx and all of the others that came along is considering the fact that of tether yeah that made it handy for all these persons to exchange backward and forward I just say worth your wealth and Bitcoin and also you let Bitcoin be your stable coin people that’s my that is my answer to all this nonsense i will say one factor you stated is that damn stone you stated banks need to see crypto succeed or many banks do not however do you suppose there will likely be a point in time when they’ll concede and they’ll understand they may be able to make money they may be able to do quality off of crypto they may be able to end up crypto banks they may be you know you and i speak about how humans must control their possess private keys store their crypto on their trays or hardly ever anyone does that so this might be opportunities for natural baggage to retailer individuals’s uh Bitcoin for them store their cryptocurrencies for them I imply we now have all these custodial bills which are gonna be opening anyway soon do you see a time when a some banks are going to wholly wake up and turn out to be crypto banks banks quite a lot of banks see the opportunity however then you’ve got bought specific layers of banks so on financial institution to the long run residence we’re virtually funding two banks proper now which might be watching to be crypto friendly banks and help the ecosystem and permit crypto firms to open money owed and cryptocurrency individuals to use fiscal merchandise that intercept between them and we now have received two extra banks that we’re clearly working with on the moment that are looking to you realize accumulate banking license support the industry but you bought to do not forget the intent I acquired in this enterprise in the first location is due to the fact that there is a larger disease within the banking system and that’s that’s not really the banks but the banks don’t make their possess decisions and the banks are managed via higher banks and better banks are the count the corresponding banks that cleared instantly into the central bank the relevant bank has the most to lose from cryptocurrency adoption considering the they have not they have a goal and that is to help growth or whatever it’s in their country and the easiest manner for the government to try this is by using exercising control over their currency and so the important financial institution do not want to lose any of their influence any of their vigor and have any competitors considering they like having a monopoly over how humans can spend use and the economic policy of a nation now so as to the the important bank’s most effective supply clearing banks banking to a couple so in the case of the uk there is about 4 or five like Lloyd’s Barclays RBS and what happens with the smaller more NIM borniche banks is that they can’t actually clear by means of rectly right into a crucial financial institution they must go via a counterparty bank and these are corresponding counterparty banks are there to serve the vital banking system since they’ve a monopoly on the creation of digital foreign money that their govt has given them whereby these banks at any time when they hassle by myself they may be able to create a digital greenback or they are able to create a digital pound and it can be backed by way of on my own and as that will get repaid they are an interest of the construction of that digital foreign money and so that is how the process works after which you have received the smaller area of interest banks that each one need to do anything they’re very you already know they may be very glad to be progressive they’re very blissful to do something however then they have got to bow right down to their correspondent banks and their correspondent banks have got to diode that energy down to the valuable financial institution and so that you obtained a unicorn and then you definately put all these layers of obscurity like these are a MasterCard and Swift and the whole lot that sits on prime until you could have acquired parties and parties and parties that are eating into all these transactions and this entrenched interest that comes right down to the imperative banking challenge which is why Bitcoin within the first location was once any such progressive notion on account that it allowed you to virtually pass all of that altogether and so will banks absolutely aid this industry well they may be very completely satisfied with their monopoly on the creation of the digital foreign money that the government has given them permission to sincerely create at any time when they limitation a lane however the smaller banks would really like a little bit of that possibility considering they are you know bowing all the way down to the counterparty banks they usually’re bowing right down to the valuable banks however every time they do that they get threatened by way of the correspondent financial institution whenever that they see that so it is a fairly particularly entrenched challenging method and because of this you recognize bitcoin is just such a innovative top notch thing that the sector has to have with a view to keep some type of self sovereignty and independence and freedom on the earth enabling you to earn your own cash spend your possess money and have a financial policy that doesn’t supply a rattling about political impact what your nation wants what your country wishes it just bowels all the way down to mass and code and consensus great you realize I good day i’m happy i am not a part of the banking ecosystem it doesn’t sound like an awfully fun location that seems like a position with some dictators seeking to inform the smaller banks what to do hold them in situation but hey that is what we received factor we’ve opted out I’ve opted out of that and i mean that within the Bitcoin ecosystem where there is no boss and it is the place the giant boys surely play so i’ve a question you understand referring again to a yr in the past after we you were on the exhibit and we had been in Bitcoin dominance round that point was once introduced it was once around an all-time low then I mean with PCAST surging and with with ripple and etherium now a year later the place do you see us going within the subsequent year in terms of terms of Bitcoin dominance will we’ve got any new all coins jumbled to the scene will persons develop worn out of all coins or will the cycle will start once more in 2019 with the the all coin pump ajiz on the grounds that i admire in the future the all cash will come back however within the within the near the 2019 future right here the place how about Bitcoin dominance all the above so Bitcoin dominance will go up for the period of a bear market and go down in the course of a bull market that’s the market we’re in in these days in case you are looking for a residence in your money and you are looking to take it outside of the financial process or you’re looking to invest it in a fiscal coverage that’s centered upon the fixed supply like Bitcoin then you are going to then you you already know enduring all markets you’ll get extra speculative for that cash and for the duration of bear markets you can get more conservative with that money and the foundations of all cash and an tokens and i’m for sure securities tokens next is that throughout undergo markets they had been full harder than Bitcoin and in the course of undergo markets if you happen to prefer the correct one they’re going to pump harder than Bitcoin because bitcoin is sound money is hard cash and that is a person case that’s being developed and there’s an competition for hard money well there is plenty of competition for is the entire one-of-a-kind person instances and things that humans are looking to do and hypothesis and returns and all forms of stuff round it and if men and women want to be more speculative than bitcoins not the place to place your cash if you want to be extremely speculative bitcoin as loopy as it sounds is the secure place to position your money in crypto in the long term either you realize probably the most proven monitor document the most decentralized and if you want to speculate round that then all coins and all of the other stuff will always pump tougher for the period of a bull market and crash tougher you’re in a endure market and i don’t see that pattern reversing a lot so the query is where are we moving into 2019 good I individually have sat by means of you understand firstly about six special cycles within the crypto market I do not forget the primary traits when men and women were shopping Bitcoin so that you could earn their possess money spend their own cash and shopping into the financial coverage freedom and libertarian philosophies and that i recollect when persons had been developing all coins in an effort to pump and dump rip-off and in addition create possible choices and new innovation that creates is one more ultra high return for those who’ve acquired on the right aspect of it I recall when the fairness of the firms many of them raised finance rebate to the future once they started getting the extremely-excessive valuations and then you definitely had the ICS and the theory and the tokens and the pumps and the whole lot via there then you definately had hard Forks where you’ve got obtained dividends just for proudly owning the crypto and conserving the crypto and i think the subsequent one with a purpose to are available 2019 due to the fact of the institutional interest is definitely more centralized silly approaches of maintaining Bitcoin and crypto for financial institutions that allows you to drive a variety of the give out of the market and put it to mega-hot lers in centralized associations and then you’ll be able to have the safety 2d wave a good way to more often than not take a yr or two to come by means of for the whole ecosystem to improve but each single asset price is mountain climbing to the blockchain whether that’s going to be the liquid network that block movement and developed on Bitcoin or the part chains that route stock is developing or aetherium is going to get an additional shot with this next scaling solution or EOS or some thing then you already know anything it is that folks are definitely developing and no one knows which one is sincerely going to take that convenient case or we all know all that we can also be definite of in the crypto market is that the Bitcoin is our first-rate your difficult cash and there’s a lot of exciting stuff that sits round that as we disrupt and change the monetary method using this science quite a lot of distinctive iterations and there is additionally a shit ton of scams around that as good and people that need to take your money so you’ve got obtained to be extremely cautious and its purchaser pay attention on this market how they may be like telling men and women purchaser pay attention that is an extraordinarily principal reminder you point out these safety tokens you think this might be a significant factor in 2019 shall we embrace it is and let’s consider that ethereal does dominate it well i’ll give you two situations etherium dominates the safety token factor protection tokens are enormous the other state of affairs is aetherium does not soar on board the protection token what do you see beneath those two situations for ethereal in terms of a coming back on the grounds that it is the number two cryptocurrency whether or not you recognize persons find it irresistible or now not so you understand however what’s a concept ins dominance like in 2019 beneath these two distinctive eventualities so there is two matters a concept of many ores have essentially the most men and women most others would not have is that they’ve a really buoyant group that love this factor and will do some thing it takes to make it be successful and that’s one of the most things you want in crypto is just a you recognize practically a devout culture of folks that love it and there’s at the moment in phrases of small contract structures a theorem is out of trend proper now but it surely’s still bought the biggest development neighborhood it can be still got various folks making use of that and so they’re watching at they’re scaling options so i don’t feel it is the legislation that we’re gonna see of aetherium and if you wish to be a contrarian then I suppose it might be a just right wager that it catches off a number of the protection stoker market even as i am particularly fascinated by what we might surely see from probably the most solutions on layer 2 with Bitcoin and i would be rather particularly pleased to look some of that these user instances force himself over to some of the you recognize the the most secure proof-of-work blockchain out there in Bitcoin and i do believe that EOS has received ample a neighborhood to truly build a way more centralized version of aetherium and it is going to more often than not optimize greater than aetherium given that it is extra centralized and just the way in which it operates the way in which that it was designed it used to be designed for scaling and also you understand it’s we we’re type of the state of play the place we are at a second however as we all know Adam come back to me in a 12 months from now and we are going to in most cases be speakme about an additional load of exclusive block chains however i’m pretty certain that Bitcoin and etherium will still be there in some well i do know the Bitcoin will be but I believe the etherium will nonetheless be though I I do see I imply i am you and i am sure you feel unpredicatable is bitcoin is the subsequent Bitcoin nobody else is going to be the following Bitcoin now i’m no longer the biggest educated in etherium however I I feel aetherium is the subsequent aetherium i do not consider I consider Yost wants to be the subsequent ethereal and so you’re saying there’s a glimmer of a danger that Ito’s could be the following in idea he also stun incredibly well at building a community and you recognize an ecosystem that fairly wants to look that be triumphant and that is essentially what made aetherium effective is humans rallied around this notion of intelligent contracts after which it just needed the one consumer case like icos to be able to come to be a phenomenon and an excellent excessive return investment for those who invested in the ICA I believe iOS’s is displaying very very equivalent signs what I noticed when a theorem first came around and you recognize this can be a very fickle market that you’ve got in crypto relating to these flavours of the months and flavors of the years and i think I believe EOS is some thing to observe and it maybe a participant one day and in capturing some of this I see a protection token smoke tract i am nonetheless the jury’s still out on daps I do not know what that’s do I do not know any person case that is working on those but however I obviously see a vastly vibrant you clear Bitcoin has had money and as another blockchain which I believe will nonetheless be aetherium and the existing thinking or probably EOS or maybe something else in phrases of small contracts and still maybe Bitcoin as good given that that tokenization use the case as it gets extra regulated every asset class goes to move over say there may be obviously a 2nd user case that I consider that we will see that’s coming via in terms of functions or blockchain rather then simply rough cash would security token phenomena of the longer term be as big as I ciose it could be as large as ICS but there may be a few materials to deconstruct into that query the reason I cos have been initially so colossal is on the grounds that they have been working without a care or respect for rules and for this reason humans were certainly able to move their crypto freely without a kyc no identification verification no sign up no placing your information at chance and you understand making use of services like shape shift shift shift them into extraordinary areas and that drove the common demand because it turns into more regulated that demand moves over to the venture capitalists the rich persons and persons with excessive-finish trenched interests in view that originally i cos had been pure crowdfunding within the purest experience of the word and reap matters that crowdfunding not ever done in phrases of the ICO increase now it’s moving to venture capitalist high net worth individuals you already know just quite doing a 2.0 variation of an IPO or a venture capital round and then you already know enjoyable a few of these tokens for for these when they developed the product and rules would permit it to be no longer viewed a protection and so relatively that is what that is rather the shift we have now obvious it can be just moved from you realize proper retail crowdfunding the place every person used to be taking part – AML kyc and wealthy folks entrenched interests and Silicon Valley form procedure now with the security token enterprise might it’s bigger than I SEOs good on one aspect you will have acquired the in every single asset type on the planet that I believe many many unique businesses will need to get on that trend and be a part of it traditional monetary institutions decentralized block chains and exchanges and centralized exchanges structures like financial institution to the longer term and that i consider each person’s going to participate and we’re gonna create a particularly quite buoyant market that’s gonna disrupt one of the entrenched investment banking interests and it might possibly be larger however then again it will depend on what happens with the regulatory side in phrases of participation from allowing retail to head in since if it simply creates the precise identical rules as doing an IPO then we’ve not relatively transformed something however what really does trade matters is that if you can use a few of these user instances the place folks can simply take a few of their securities preserve it on their possess cellphone with out one of the crucial custodial curiosity in the core after which do it in a whitelisted method the place that you can go from you already know regulated platform to regulated platform to owning your possess security after which I believe we can create a lot more liquidity in the enterprise than was once earlier there and i believe it might surely be larger than the ico wave that now we have truely seen however it before it was once quite driven via mass participation of anyone ignoring the whole lot that the government desired them to do in terms of money laundering kyc and securities laws yeah that is on the whole now not going to be a wild wild west form of pile on i suppose well let’s we have been talking about bit primary earlier than let’s speak about a one of their opponents a colossal Fury they simply raised some huge cash what are your thoughts on that and what it method to for the industry yeah I mean bitfury well the the mining industry is getting more institutionalized they’ve received to catch up with some severely large players that need a part of that industry you already know I I so foresee that we’re gonna have we have now already seen the Samsungs and the ETA intel’s and GMOs in japan getting involved in that enterprise and that i believe you are gonna see much more institutional avid gamers now bit mean is just a little of sorry–however fury is a little bit of a bitter subject for me due to the fact i do don’t forget when they have been very very early in their business we virtually they flew over to fulfill me after we have been first opening bang to the longer term calm and that i was very sketchy on the organization and so they wanted to do the seed ran with us and we failed to without a doubt do it in the end and that was once one of the vital largest offers that we let slip because the valuation of that organization and the worth that they truely created would had been you understand on parallel with one of the most most good higher than probably the most more positive firms we done financial institution to the long run so III desire him all of the nice I feel you have to see corporations that you realize they did have their roots and core they were there on the very beginning in crypto Biff you’re he is been around for a very long time you could now not have preferred some of the decisions that they revamped time however they are probably the most corporations that is relatively acquired a an predominant phase in our historical past of crypto and so they were establishing chips and doing you realize mining in occasions when it wasn’t cool to do say so I desire them all of the high-quality it is fine to peer the success that they have been you already know raising these these better sums of money and i want him you already know well competing with one of the large massive big pockets of money they’re gonna get in this enterprise tremendous valuations for companies centered on this industry it is a just right factor and it is a development I feel on the way to as a way to continue in right into a 2019 speaking a few manufacturer that has a enormous valuation coinbase the place do you see them going you see them going public you see him getting purchased off out by way of any individual without doubt so probably the most things we’re fascinated about our financial institution to the future is that we’re about to launch our secondary market in order to enable investors to truly purchase and promote shares in some of the more positive organizations in the industry so the absolute best price organizations men and women can sincerely buy those pre IPO by way of our platform and we’re particularly thinking about bringing that to market and having almost all of the gigantic companies within the industry is our purpose for 2019 and allow persons to create to be capable to purchase and promote this shares via the platform however Queen bases you recognize eight billion dollars valuation might be they may be gonna get higher than that in the IPO I consider they will get better than that within the IPO but it’s a relatively it can be a rather punchy valuation you recognize they’ve obtained quite a few cock they’ve bought various dominance out there I believe that they’ve caught anything like 25 million patrons I think that they did a few billion greenbacks in income and 330 million greenbacks a revenue final 12 months they are acting identical to a bank to me correct now they are watching for mergers and acquisitions they’re looking to purchase and get their way into the whole thing and i feel plenty of corporations are gonna promote to coinbase and this style of grow to be you understand just a little just like the the Google of crypto however I believe it is going to be you understand grow to be very very similar to a bank we had a little of experience probably the most firms they just lately acquired us dealer seller which was one among our firms that we were a shareholder of and unluckily we you recognize we had been a minority shareholder so we sold that they usually’re watching to get into the protection token industry but you understand coin basis remains to be at this stage the first position which you can sort of inform anybody to get into crypto if they’ve acquired fiat and then with a bit of luck they are going to go over to a hardware pockets and use Bitcoin because it was once but at the moment they may be doing onboarding from the fiat world to crypto higher than any individual else and i seem forward to increasingly people getting worried in that enterprise and offering best choices however simply coin founded i’ve a good future I suppose it does they’ll be you know they will be over obtained by using a bank or IP owing in the subsequent in the subsequent couple of years I’ve bought certainly about it that so as to be a good way to be massive as soon as yeah it is unique to see this development now you you stated it possibly the Google of the crypto world that they could be the AOL of the crypto world to you realize be the company that’s huge to start with however then is quickly forgotten so I mean we’re still very we’re early on in all this it can be intriguing to look how this all develops now you have got recounted your manufacturer back to the long run a few times so tell us tell us what is going on on there tell us for those who’ve been at any of people you’re at an occasion good you have been at a shareholders but any activities you have been at which were fascinating these days simply what is going on on with you Yahoo our crew have been rather heads down in 2017 we were rather building the groundwork for our secondary market technically to give men and women the potential to so we’re doing a number of matters at the moment first of all we’re about to launch we did our we launched our token to power our ecosystem we’re about to launch the B F wallet which will in the future be a security token wallet which will permit you to maintain your own securities tokens and BFT and you know take away one of the most custodial risk that we take a bank to the longer term so folks can have extra vigour if their own belongings we’re next launching the secondary market so our purpose for 2019 is to have all the essential companies the place which you can you understand are certified investors should purchase and promote shares in one of the vital extra victorious companies in our industry and then in 2019 we’re also watching to simultaneously disrupt ourselves we had been we’re a beautiful ancient organization in crypto we began in 2010 and we’re now watching to rebuild our platform as if we were starting from scratch and disrupt ourself you realize take one of the opportunities and potentialities that this the technology permits us to do proper now and build a protection token trade with a variety of compliance and rules and and and you understand registrations that we have amassed through the years to help the industry however once more you already know we’re here to do one factor and that is exactly what we began manner again earlier than in you know I got invited to that first Bitcoin conference in 2011 and that’s that we feel the way forward for finance appears very one-of-a-kind from the past we’re right here to aid the industry we do not know which businesses are going to succeed we don’t know which crypto is going to be triumphant we’re targeted the Bitcoin is going to be very very essential in the future and we would prefer to support the industry and allow our investors to diversify support the growth of the enterprise and one funding round at a time and watch the disruption of the typical economic markets and confidently transfer closer to a extra sovereign freedom situated monetary method that serves folks better high-quality I disrupt your possess organization i’m the disrupt meister and i do know all about that good I gotta say anything you will have folks within the chatter saying you will have made their hands a lot more advantageous and you do each time I talk to you you reinforce humans’s hands they usually hold on to their Bitcoin even tougher so uh anything we forgot to talk about you wish to have to say any robust hand commentary the ground is your yours yeah lesson with that one so I in my opinion for the period of my involvement in Bitcoin i have obvious my thirty buck Bitcoin crashed the $3 how’s about that there is a ninety% correction I’ve noticeable my one thousand 200 and fifty greenbacks Bitcoin crash to two hundred and fifty greenbacks and extra not too long ago I’ve seen my twenty thousand dollar Bitcoin crash – approximately five thousand greenbacks but what we’re noticing is that there’s a smaller and smaller crashes over time on better and better liquidity or increasingly adoption and so I don’t have any doubt in my intellect that i’ll see my $100,000 Bitcoin crash to $30,000 and ultimately I believe the place that is going if Bitcoin becomes hard cash and the common economic system continues to fail and continues to create more and more motives that make men and women need to earn their possess money spend their own money and creates a fiscal policy that rewards people that take on debt as natural cash does whereas the crypto and Bitcoin permit folks to rewards the saver in the long term is where I think this is going then I think i’ll additionally see my $1,000,000 Bitcoin crashed to $300,000 and eventually depending on how lengthy i am around we’ll see it eventually virtually become you recognize a medium trade a world reserve the critical banks will most of the time amassing it and it’ll actually grow to be a global reserve asset that has whole independence from political stress and no nation’s agenda and i quite seem forward to seeing the place that goes and where we go next so it is rather exciting instances and again you could think that this is a bear market this is difficult however we’re right on the establishing of the most unique time in fiscal historical past and i’ve noticeable this time and time once more that is my third time of seeing this this appears precisely the same as the Mount Cox crash leading through a yr and a half of bear market a consolidation sideways market everyone speakme about how crypto is dead every person speaking concerning the new alternatives after which we have now a parabolic increase as this fiscal innovation drives a brand new thing that creates the subsequent bubble but the every bubble sincerely bottoms out and then you realize consolidates at a enormously bigger worth than the last one yes we have been i’ve advised individuals it can be all cyclical we’ve obvious it earlier than and it is fine to have a guest who’s been in it longer than i have who’ve noticeable greater than I have got to remind everybody that hiya do not panic have a robust hand he goes in cycles it comes every time it comes back over and over again and again humans yeah don’t get into debt financial savings overspending all correct Simon Dixon thanks very a lot to your time today you rock as traditional all over recollect I post a new show right here every day you in no way be aware of when a unique guest goes to come on in the core of the day like that is so unpredictable disrupt meister comm examine out the hyperlinks below you can which you can examine out simon on twitter linked to under and me on twitter at Tech
