Bitcoin is in the news, and there's an amazing rush on cryptocurrencies and seemingly a new coin coming out every day. So it's becoming more obvious that we're in a bubble. But what's the real future of cryptocurrencies? Jason Hartman talks to Tama Churchouse, co-founder of Churchouse Publishing Limited and lead cryptocurrency analyst at Stansberry Churchouse Research, about what's going on in the world of cryptocurrency. Tama explains the differences between things like Bitcoin and Etherium, and the two look into what the government's future role in cryptocurrency will look like. Key Takeaways: [1:21] Why is there a sudden runup in cryptocurrencies? [6:00] The average transaction fee for Bitcoin is making it impossible to scale [10:06] There are currently over 1,500 different cryptocurrencies with a market cap of around $520 billion [12:01] There are currently protocols being written on the blockchain that you can buy into [14:35] An explanation of "CryptoKitties" and how it can be applied to other avenues [16:05] Etherium created a standardized token and how it's aiding in ICOs [18:13] Etherium doesn't scale and is expensive to use, creating some serious drawbacks [19:27] How Tama learned about cryptocurrency [26:08] Is decentralized decision making really a good idea or will it just bog everything down? [30:21] Cryptocurrency isn't really a great investment at the moment (perhaps it will become one), so what do we do with it today? [32:41] Bitcoin mania has people declaring it a storer of value, but it takes at LEAST a generation to be able to make such a claim [35:01] Will the government let cryptocurrencies go on (and can they even squash it if they try)? [38:10] Tama believes 2018 will bring a wave of regulations on to cryptocurrencies [40:59] How Tama would destroy Bitcoin if he really wanted to [43:53] One cryptocurrency you SHOULD NOT BUY Website: www.StansberryChurchhouse.com www.CoinMarketCap.com "The government doesn't like competition in anything, especially currency" "ICOs are, by far and away, Etherum's biggest proof of concept use case at the moment" Follow Jason on TWITTER, INSTAGRAM & LINKEDIN Twitter.com/JasonHartmanROI Instagram.com/jasonhartman1/ Linkedin.com/in/jasonhartmaninvestor/ Call our Investment Counselors at: 1-800-HARTMAN (US) or visit: https://www.jasonhartman.com/ Free Class: Easily get up to $250,000 in funding for real estate, business or anything else: http://JasonHartman.com/Fund CYA Protect Your Assets, Save Taxes & Estate Planning: http://JasonHartman.com/Protect Get wholesale real estate deals for investment or build a great business – Free Course: https://www.jasonhartman.com/deals Special Offer from Ron LeGrand: https://JasonHartman.com/Ron Free Mini-Book on Pandemic Investing: https://www.PandemicInvesting.com
This episode of the Web3 with Sam Kamani podcast featuers Tama Churchouse, Chief Operating Officer of Cumberland Labs, an early stage blockchain venture studio backed by DRW and Cumberland. Tama has been involved in crypto since 2016, coming from over 10 years in structured finance at JP Morgan in Hong Kong. At Cumberland Labs, Tama helps ideate, scope, research, build POCs and launch new crypto businesses from scratch. Some of their current projects include: Hashflow - An on-chain asset management platform for structured products and volatility trading. It caters to institutional clients by being fully on-chain yet regulated. Expand.network - A one-stop API for developers to easily interact with dozens of blockchains through a single API while retaining self-custody. Already has corporate clients. Digitally - An NFT wiki community to provide clear, objective info on NFT projects. Includes history, functionality, rights etc. There is a lack of reliable NFT info currently, so this aims to be a reliable source. When discussing the future of NFTs, Tama believes we are in a bear market currently after the 2021 hype cycle. However, NFTs as a technological primitive remain as fascinating as years ago. Stronger projects will emerge from this winter by providing more utility, community and commercial viability. In DeFi, Tama sees more merging with TradFi coming in the next 6-12 months. This includes bringing traditional assets on-chain while still providing access to DeFi. For example, placing idle stablecoins into structured on-chain products vs putting money in and out of bank accounts. On stablecoins, Tama believes the structure and market making are most important for maintaining the peg. Non-USD stablecoins are still lacking, which is a missed opportunity - stablecoins are perfect for transferring cross-border value. When asked about challenges, Tama explained the regulatory limitations on attaching economic features to tokens is frustrating. This restricts the upside and democratizing potential of blockchain. Keeping up with the explosion of new protocols is also difficult. Finding high quality entrepreneurs and ideas early that fit their vision and network is an ongoing effort. Overall, Tama remains excited about the potential for crypto to enable creation and transfer of economic value in a permissionless way. He wants to enable projects to provide as much value as possible to their users and token holders. Nothing mentioned in this podcast is investment advice and please do your own research.

As I write this, bitcoin is trading at $8,600. That's down more than 50% from the December highs of $20,000. But is this selloff a natural correction, or something to be worried about? That's one of the questions I ask my guest Tama Churchouse in today's podcast. Tama was an investment banker for a decade, most recently with JPMorgan. Then he went on to manage a family office. And in 2013, he started buying and learning about bitcoin. He started writing a small note to friends and family about the crypto market and it caught on. He decided to make it a full-time job. And that's led Tama to become one of the most connected writers/investors in the crypto space. He actually just returned from one of the most exclusive crypto gatherings in the world… It's called the Satoshi Roundtable. It's invitation only and about 100 people make the cut. The attendees are CEOs of major crypto firms and some of the core developers for major cryptos - it's the who's who of the industry. Tama was invited because he serves on the board of one of the top blockchain firms in the world. And during our discussion, he shares a few insights from what he heard in these closed-door meetings (and how these leaders in the field, many of whom are billionaires, feel about the crypto selloff). Tama also explains why he thinks bitcoin is here to stay, but why 95% of all cryptos will ultimately be worth zero. As you know, I've been writing a lot this year about avoiding big mistakes. We discuss this in regard to crypto and Tama shares what he thinks is the easiest way to avoid making big mistakes in the sector. And, of course, Tama and I share what we think 2018 holds for the crypto market (his view on this is great - it's something I hadn't heard before). This is one of the best podcasts I've recorded in awhile. And I'd encourage you all to check it out. I always tell people to learn as much as possible about crypto before buying even one cent of bitcoin. And I guarantee you'll leave this podcast better-educated and more informed on the crypto space. You can tune in here.

There’s little doubt that one topic dominated financial headlines in 2017…and it took most investors by complete surprise. Bitcoin’s parabolic rise from $997 on January 1, 2017 to almost $20,000 has been nothing short of spectacular. It’s been a hot topic on the Stansberry Investor Hour for months. In part 2 of the Best of Bitcoin, you’ll hear from legendary investor Jim Rogers as he gives you his take on cryptos and what he sees as some the biggest obstacles to Bitcoin adoption and acceptance as a store of value. Financial publisher and commodities expert Dennis Gartman talks with Porter about how we’ll remember “Bitcoin Mania 2017” once it all goes bust, and Doug Casey draws a connection between the enormous growth in global outstanding debt and the exuberant interest in crypto assets. Buck has an extensive interview with Bitcoin expert and editor of Crypto Capital, Tama Churchouse. Tama breaks down the three types of crypto asset classes you need to know about to fully understand the form and function of Bitcoin, blockchain, and the 1,300+ crypto tokens in circulation today.

Bitcoin’s parabolic rise from $997 on January 1, 2017 to almost $20,000 this year has been nothing short of spectacular. In part 1 of the Best of Bitcoin, you’ll hear from Wall Street Journal senior writer Paul Vigna, author of the Age of Cryptocurrency and the upcoming Truth Machine. Paul helps you understand the origins of Bitcoin and how the underlying decentralized blockchain technology running it has the power to reinvent traditional financial and social structures. Porter interviews perma-bear David Tice who tells you why he thinks Bitcoin is real, why it’s here to stay, and how it offers a complete paradigm shift for how businesses can operate. Tama Churchouse, editor of Crypto Capital and senior analyst at Stansberry Churchouse Research joins Buck and Porter to tell you exactly why Asia is the melting pot of crypto activity, how to get started in Bitcoin, which crypto assets to watch, and why learning the difference between Bitcoin, blockchain, and token function is crucial before investing in the crypto space. www.stansberrybitcoin.com

The terms Bitcoin, blockchain, and cryptocurrency are everywhere these days. But, what do we really know about the technology? If you think it is just a way to transfer funds hold onto your hat.

Bitcoin and cryptocurrency expert Tama Churchouse calls in from Singapore to answer the big question of, “how high can Bitcoin really go?” Tama teaches you a new way to value the digital currency invention of Satoshi Nakamoto, and exactly how cryptos function as a transfer of economic value. Buck learns how anyone can download every transaction ever made with Bitcoin and why it’s massively secure. Tama reveals the three layers of crypto-assets you need to understand to realize why we are in the very early stages of financial and business disruption resulting from Bitcoin and blockchain technology. Buck tells you why he thinks the Trump tax bill could be the next “bellyflop into the shallow end of the pool,” if Congress cannot simplify the 70,000 pages of current IRS tax code to benefit working Americans. What kind of pork and fat are politicians cooking up in the Capitol kitchen to push this bill through? Decorated Marine scout sniper and author of Bounty Hunter 4/3, Jason Delgado, joins the show to tell you about what it’s like to wake up every morning and go to war as your day-job. Buck responds to listener feedback about electro-magnetic pulses (EMPs), political term limits, and dinosaurs. www.investorhour.com
Buck’s live in the Baltimore studio for the first time and Porter’s back from the Grant’s Conference in New York with a report on what the big money on Wall Street is thinking right now. Turns out Porter’s not the only one who sees a global debt “jubilee” on the horizon. Porter reveals the first country that may start the trend of massive debt forgiveness, and how it could easily spread to the US. Buck and Porter welcome Tama Churchouse, analyst and editor at Stansberry Churchouse Publishing, to teach you the one thing about crypto assets most people overlook. Tama shares the critical information you need to understand before you invest in cryptocurrencies and the blockchain technology behind bitcoin and ethereum. Porter asks Tama to give listeners his number one investment idea outside of bitcoin. See a replay of Stansberry’s first ever bitcoin webinar event at www.stansberrybitcoin.com. (
