Friends,
|
|
I don’t want you to lose this, so I’ll make this short.
|
|
At midnight tonight, the discount on Crypto Trader ends and the price goes WAY up.
|
|
Lock in your price here before it’s gone.
|
|
Many of my readers already have. And with the November Bitcoin Effect hitting the market this month, they’re positioned for it. I don’t want you watching from the sidelines, wishing you’d acted when you had the chance.
|
|
This is it. After tonight, the door closes, and a price like this isn’t coming back.
|
|
Let the Game Come to You!

Eight Years Ago, Almost Nobody Knew What This Meant
|
|
On Valentine’s Day in 2018, 10 collectors got together and paid $1 million for a picture of a rose.
|
|
They couldn’t hang it on a wall. They couldn’t put it in a safe. What they bought was a digital token tied to a photograph called The Forever Rose.
|
 |
|
In 2018, famed photographer Kevin Abosch sold The Forever Rose on an Ethereum-based blockchain platform for $1 million.
|
|
|
When I showed my readers that story back then, almost nobody knew what tokenization meant. I was talking about digital art and what might someday happen with real estate, stocks and other traditional assets.
|
|
The rose sold for $1 million at a time when plenty of people still dismissed crypto as a bubble or “magic internet money.”
|
|
Just five weeks earlier, Warren Buffett had gone on CNBC’s Squawk Box and said cryptocurrencies would “come to a bad ending.”
|
|
But I kept telling my readers to look past the noise and watch what Wall Street was building around crypto.
|
|
Blockchain wasn’t just about bitcoin. It could change the way we own and trade everything from real estate to stocks, bonds, and commodities.
|
|
My research told me we were watching the early stages of a new financial system. Back then, that idea sounded far-fetched to a lot of people.
|
|
Today, I don’t need a digital rose to show you where this trend is going.
|
|
On September 30, I held a special briefing and showed you why I believe Wall Street is beginning to move the assets it already owns onto crypto rails. I call it the Fourth Crypto Wealth Wave.
|
|
Nine days later, Nasdaq CEO Adena Friedman sat down with CNBC and discussed tokenization.
|
|
Friends, this is how a story moves from the edges of the market into the mainstream.
|
|
The crowd isn’t here yet. Most people still aren’t talking about tokenized stocks over dinner. Your neighbor probably isn’t asking which blockchain Wall Street will use.
|
|
But Nasdaq is talking about it on CNBC now.
|
|
And every time this story moves another step into the mainstream, the window to get positioned for life-changing gains gets smaller.
|
|
The Mistake I Don’t Want You to Make
|
|
Most people wait for an idea to feel comfortable before investing. They wait for the headlines to turn friendly. They wait until everybody around them agrees.
|
|
By then, the opportunity is gone. I’ve watched this happen with bitcoin over and over.
|
|
When BlackRock filed for a spot bitcoin ETF in June 2023, bitcoin was trading around $25,500. Crypto had already been through a brutal bear market, regulators were suing major exchanges, and plenty of people wanted nothing to do with it.
|
|
Bitcoin eventually reached a record high above $126,000.
|
|
That’s almost five times your money from where bitcoin was trading after the BlackRock filing.
|
|
Here’s what I want you to understand: The people who waited for Wall Street to make bitcoin feel safe had to pay much higher prices to own it.
|
|
I am showing you this because the same instinct is at work today. Tokenization still feels early. It still feels strange. That’s exactly the time you want to position yourself.
|
|
Eight Years Ago, We Had to Explain the Word
|
|
Go back to July 2018.
|
|
My research was telling me that tokenization was one of the biggest ideas for bringing blockchain technology into traditional asset classes. At the time, most people didn’t even know what the word meant.
|
|
I was talking about putting ownership records on blockchain networks… Fractional ownership. And real estate, stocks, bonds, commodities, and other assets eventually moving this way.
|
|
Think about how far this trend has come since then…
|
|
Back in 2018, I had to show my readers a digital rose and hypothetical pieces of real estate just to help them understand what tokenization could become.
|
|
Today, I can point you to the CEO of Nasdaq.
|
|
That’s how quickly an idea can move from the edge of the financial system toward the center of it.
|
|
What Nasdaq Is Telling You Now
|
|
On October 9, Friedman told CNBC that tokenization could free up tens of billions of dollars in capital that is tied up as collateral across the global financial system.
|
|
Let me show you what this actually means.
|
|
Banks and large institutions have to set aside assets such as Treasurys, stocks, and money-market instruments to back trades and other obligations. That collateral can sit there instead of being put to work somewhere else.
|
|
Tokenization can make those assets easier to move and settle. Friedman described the goal as making collateral more “fluid.”
|
|
That may sound like plumbing. But plumbing is exactly what matters when you’re talking about moving trillions of dollars through the financial system.
|
|
She also made another point that jumped out at me. She said the retail side of this market “has been about 10 years ahead.”
|
|
That’s exactly the pattern I have been showing you.
|
|
Everyday people got into crypto first. Then private wealth. Then Wall Street came in through regulated products like spot bitcoin ETFs.
|
|
Now Wall Street is starting to move its own assets onto the same rails.
|
|
This is the future I have been telling you was coming for more than eight years.
|
|
Wall Street Is Building While Most People Are Still Waiting
|
|
Nasdaq is not acting in isolation.
|
|
On September 17, the SEC issued its Innovation Exemption, which allows qualifying venues to trade certain tokenized U.S. stocks on-chain under specific conditions.
|
|
The agency also has a proposal on the table to rescind Rule 611, a market-structure rule that has made it difficult for tokenized trading venues to operate alongside traditional exchanges.
|
|
Those were two of the regulatory catalysts I walked you through during my September 30 briefing. And now, just days later, the CEO of Nasdaq is making the economic case for tokenization on CNBC.
|
|
This is why I told you the “lull” – the stretch between one wealth wave ending and the next beginning – is the time to position yourself.
|
|
The price action can still look ugly. People can still be skeptical. But underneath all that noise, the infrastructure keeps getting built.
|
|
TD Cowen estimates that on-chain capital could grow from roughly $4.6 trillion last year to more than $100 trillion by 2030.
|
|
That gives you an idea of the size of the financial system Wall Street is preparing to move on-chain.
|
|
The Crowd Is Starting to Notice
|
|
Look, I understand why people want to wait.
|
|
It feels safer to buy after everybody agrees. It feels safer after CNBC has been talking about a trend for months, and your friends are finally asking about it.
|
|
But markets don’t hand out the biggest gains when everybody feels safe. The best opportunities I’ve seen in my career usually showed up while most people were still uncomfortable.
|
|
That’s why the lull is so important. It gives you time to do the research, understand what is changing, and get into position before the next wave becomes obvious.
|
|
Eight years ago, hardly anybody knew what tokenization meant.
|
|
Now Nasdaq is talking about it on CNBC. The crowd hasn’t arrived yet. But it’s starting to notice.
|
|
Friends, I don’t want to come back to you a few years from now with a chart showing what happened after Nasdaq, the SEC, and the rest of Wall Street started moving in this direction. I don’t want you wondering why you waited.
|
|
That is the mistake I am trying to help you avoid.
|
|
And if you missed my recent announcement about why I’m walking away from an important sector of the crypto market, you can watch the replay right here.
