changes everything? Good morning, good afternoon, good evening and welcome to Martin Lucas Investor
for this special announcement and in just eight and a half minutes from now because I've been
talking for a minute and a half, I'm going to give you the news that changes life forever. It's
the first day of the rest of your lives. What do I mean? Well, in 8 minutes and 15 seconds,
you'll find out. So, welcome everybody. I've got some news for you and I shared it earlier on today
on my socials. Started out by sharing it on my ex account. I wanted to share this with you.
As you know, I talk directly with Bank of America, Robinhood and others, even a connection at Ripple
now and I shared some information that many of you think you know but you don't. I shared this
huge news. Bank of America recommends crypto allocation for wealth clients. Now what does
that exactly mean? We know that Bank of America have been buying XRP. They've been testing it.
They've been doing all kinds of things and we also know that they do not hold Bitcoin or XRP
on their balance sheet but they've been testing it. They've been learning about crypto but testing
XRP for payments and we know that Amazon have adopted it for payments. There's many other
things coming but now, today, for the first time, we've heard before that Bank of America
are getting behind Bitcoin but now they are recommending to their wealth clients to own
up to four percent of the stuff. That changes everything. I shared this information with you
and I'm going to go into it a little bit deeper and tell you how you can win and how you can fall
into the trap so be careful. Tap the like button if you like this and consider subscribing. This is
huge. The institutional floodgates are opening further. Bank of America is now advising its
wealth management clients to consider allocating one percent to four percent of their portfolio
to Bitcoin and crypto ETFs. Now then, do you like my little AI there? Quite good that isn't it?
I've always said I stand behind Bank of America so I thought I'd give it a little wave on there
and there it is. This is the news I've been waiting to bring to you for the longest time.
I'd like to ask you, here is my X account in the chat, go and like and comment on each of these
threads. I've just dropped my X in the chat right now and if you follow me on X by the way you can
win two thousand dollars. Anyway, let's continue down here to post number two. I've got a whole
thread I wanted to share with you. This isn't just allowing access, it's formal recommendation.
This is the key from one of the largest financial institutions in the world. Have you reposted it?
Have you liked it? Have you left a comment? I'll reply to my members, please do. My next thread,
mainstream validation. A major US bank is actively recommending digital assets. This
legitimizes Bitcoin and crypto as a necessary component of a diversified modern portfolio.
I cannot overstate this enough. This is huge. However, don't rush out to buy some just yet.
I'll explain why in a few moments. This, the it's too risky narrative is officially fading.
Now, this is my very own post. I've put this in my X account. Please go and like and repost and
comment to each of these. Institutional adoption. This move gives Bank of America's vast network of
wealth advisors the green light to discuss and recommend regulated crypto products like spot
Bitcoin ETFs to their clients. That's a massive inflow potential. However, stand by, I'll give you
a warning. A new asset class, the Guardian, aligns with crypto and other asset classes,
threatening, sorry, treating it as a strategic allocation rather than a fringe speculation.
They specifically mentioned regulated vehicles for exposure, and they talk about the range of
one to four percent allows for varying risk tolerances. Important to use your
lots to rebalance your portfolio. I do it a lot on my show. You know, I do that a lot. I'm always
rebalancing my portfolio to align everything. But one to four percent is recommended now,
not just talked about, but recommended with the higher end of the clients comfortable with
elevated volatility. And we'll talk about volatility a minute and how you can win with that.
Finally, the integration of digital assets into traditional finance is accelerating.
Are you ready for the next wave of institutional capital? Now, today, live on the show, I told you
and I was right again. I told you I'm 100 percent in the S&P and right at that moment there on the
news when when we had Atkins talking, I said it would pump and dump and it did drop straight away,
started to come back. I said, don't chase this. I'll talk about the volatility and how you can
get exposure the right way. If we look at if we look at Bitcoin, that's a two percent drop there
from its high in matter of minutes. Do you want that? Do you stomach that? Does it matter? Does
it matter if it goes to 200,000 or a million? Who the hell cares? You could argue. Well, you should
care because it's important to balance your portfolio and protect your money as well as
making it. So don't get too excited right now. Think how best to apply this information. So I'm
going to share with you some information shared today by a Seeking Alpha news editor. Now, this
is important information just because we've got we've got not only adoption, but recommendation
to buy crypto now. Bitcoin XRP. We know that we do have that from the Bank of America. You've still
got to understand a couple of things. So first of all, I'm going to tell you there's a reason why
I'm still 100 percent in the S&P 500. I'm expecting more volatility, more drops, carry trade, and so
on and so forth. However, more inclined to buy back my Bitcoin. As you know, a few days ago,
I owned a Bitcoin. I tested it out, wanted to see how it would feel, how you would react to it.
I sold it again for a wash. I went all in and bought a Bitcoin. I bought a ton of XRP
and I made profit on that made about 17 percent. But it's not right just now. Now, remember one
thing before I show you this news here, if you want exposure to crypto, you've already got it
if you own the S&P. Currently, if you do your calculations and I spent some time this afternoon,
by the way, five minutes to go before I end and give you the light, give you the story
that will change everything. First day of the rest of your life. What am I talking about?
Four minutes and 45 seconds to go. So if you own the S&P like I do, you own 0.1 of 1 percent
of Bitcoin. That's your exposure right now. 0.1 of 1 percent. Mainly coming through micro strategy.
However, just by owning the S&P, that is going to grow. Remember, I've said to you on countless
occasions that eventually crypto would replace Apple at the top of the S&P 500. You can have
exposure to it because America wants to be the leader in crypto by owning the S&P 500. So consider
that. By the way, while you're here, please tap the like button and consider subscribing. I think
you're half asleep. We got 318 people and no one. We've got 60 likes. Everyone's asleep. So please
do do that. All right. Going to share this news with you now. This is important. Bearing in mind
you own 0.1 of 1 percent by owning the S&P 500 and it will grow over time. It's always going to be
super volatile. So unlike Michael Saylor, only own Bitcoin. I don't think that's a good idea
at all. Or only own XRP. If you want consistent growth, always winning, always growing. As you
know, I'm never losing. This is my score here. 94 trades, 91 wins. It's over 100 now. I'm going
to update it tomorrow. I'm always winning because I'm buying with conviction. I'm not chasing.
I'm patient. I'm waiting for the right moment. Bear this news story here in mind. Thank you,
for your subscription. As Bitcoin has returned to $90,000 mark after experiencing significant
volatility in recent months, bullish CEO and former New York Stock Exchange president,
Tom Farley, said the cryptocurrency's price fluctuations will continue to be a source of
Those that are new to investing and trading do not understand and will never understand.
They'll new, they'll come in, they'll borrow money, they'll overborrow and will have volatility.
We always will. It presents opportunity, however, for those that understand how the market works.
Good time to buy would have been a few days ago. That's why I bought one and I sold it as an
So understand there will be volatility forever in this space. In an interview with CNBC,
Farley expressed that while he remains a long-term bull on Bitcoin, the volatility is real. The
volatility is here for a long time. He attributed recent price movements to changes in Bitcoin
buying patterns, particularly noting the impact of major institutional buyers like MicroStrategy,
which purchased 180,000 Bitcoin in the first seven months of last year,
but significantly reduced acquisitions in the following months.
Farley explained the market dynamics by pointing out that approximately 160,000 Bitcoins are mined
each year, creating a need for incremental buyers for roughly $15 billion worth of the
cryptocurrency. When you pull out that marginal buyer, you're going to get more volatility.
You're going to get more downdrafts, he observed, highlighting how reduced institutional purchasing
has contributed to increased price swings. Farley also addressed security concerns with
the cryptocurrency ecosystem, including recent hacks affecting DeFi protocols. Despite these
incidents, Farley noted a dramatic decline in major security breaches. We kind of woke up six
months ago and we said, gee, this now feels like an institutional asset class where by and large,
the centralized exchanges are trustworthy. Indeed, they are. While acknowledging the security
remains the number one risk for any crypto company, Farley expressed optimism about the
future of blockchain technology. We have just two and a half minutes to go before I end this with
my life changing news. Today is the first day of the rest of our lives. We're going to see
major financial asset classes move on to publicly available blockchain related technology over the
years ahead, he predicted, reflecting his continued confidence despite the market's
inherent volatility. Farley's companies bullish continues to hold 24000 Bitcoin in its portfolio,
demonstrating his commitment to the assets long term potential. So there we go on a day where we
have not just adoption or regulation, but we now have recommendation of Bitcoin and crypto. Now we
know it's Bitcoin and we know it's XRP because I talked to Bank of America and I know they own
both. Just saying. All right. So there we go. We're down to one and a half minutes. I'm going
to end this and give you the news that changes everything. So have you all tapped the like

now for Bitcoin. It's a time now for XRP. But be patient. Wait to buy. Wait till you can hold it.
Understand what you own. Trust me. I bought a whole Bitcoin last week and it feels nothing and it
should feel nothing. It's a simple investment strategy as part of your portfolio. Thank you
ever so much. We've just had another super chat come in. This is from let me read this out. Do you
think we are in a bull trap right now for XRP? Yes, I do. Yes, I do. I don't like giving it a name
like that, but I would prefer to buy it when it goes down again because it will. In my opinion,
I still see $10 as a target. You might not care. And why would you care if you want to hold it to
$10 and buy it at $217? Who the heck cares? It makes no difference. Right. Okay. I'm going to
wrap this up and I hope we've got lots of members here in the chat because here's my news for you.
Today is the first day for the rest of your life. We are very lucky and privileged and honoured to
have such an amazing family. We're in 76 countries every day. You know, recently I told you about
Leah's diagnosis. She has breast cancer. You all prayed for her. You all offered her support.
This was back on the 5th of September. Since then, we've been going through all kinds of drama.
I took time off, as you know, went home. We had time to be together and start preparing for surgery,
start preparing for treatment. And many of you sent messages. It never ended.
Prayers, thoughts, and everything. I want to thank you all for those prayers,
thoughts, and your love and support to me and to my wife, Leah. Just a few moments ago,
we have come back from the surgeon. We've just had our post-surgery meeting with the surgeon.
I can tell you, for the first time and the last time, Leah is now cancer-free. The surgery worked,
the other tests were done, and there is no cancer now in Leah. And because of which,
we do not need to even do chemotherapy, radiotherapy over one and a half days, and then
medication to prevent it coming back, which gives a 98% chance of it never coming back again.
So, we move on. It's the first day of the rest of our lives today. Cancer is gone,
Leah is cancer-free, and 98% chance it'll never return. This is a great day.
So, I want to thank everybody from myself and Leah. You know she's private. She won't come on
and do all those things, but this is the last time we mention it. Tomorrow, we get up and we
focus on the day, and we don't talk about cancer anymore. It doesn't exist. And if you believe in
prayer, thank you to all of you that did all of that, because maybe it had something to do with
it. Many of you, thousands of you, sent messages. That's it from me. So, tomorrow is the first day
of the rest of your life for all of us here, because we have a family, we have support,
we have people working together. I am here. I pledge my life to grow in the most honest,
real, live YouTube channel in the world. It will be the first one billion channel in the world.
We're already in 76 countries. I want to thank you all. So, I love you all, and from Leah and myself,
I'll see you next time. Until then, as always, we're about to go out. I forgot. You know all
the super chats that you gave me and Leah, and you helped us go to dinner? Well, we have about
$200 of it left. Tonight, we're going down to our local steakhouse, and we're going to eat steak,
and drink wine, and drink cocktails, and spend the rest of the $200. Thank you very much for
your support. That's it from me. I love you all. See you in the morning. Until next time,
as always, take care of yourselves and each other. Ta-ra.
