Because the other side with these AI and hyperfakes and all these videos is people don't know what content they can trust.

But the reason I think, you know, Nick's at the center of this cultural moment is because when you watch those videos, you can just tell it is 100% authentically his creation done by somebody who cares about a certain issue, has beliefs around it.

And it is independent journalism in a way that like culturally America has lost.

And so these things are all going to point to you in directions of where's the money going, where's the attention going, and how are you going to position yourself to outperform?

And that's why I think 2026, Bitcoin is going to be really interesting.

The open question is, in the way that Stash exists, how much of it comes from drug trafficking and how much of it comes from asset seizure of its own citizens?

Because I think the narrative changes a little bit if you were to create a strategic reserve based on that forfeiture of assets where it was basically ill-gotten.

Because then people will be more willing to say like, okay, yeah, the drug traffickers shouldn't get those things, so we're just going to seize it.

And people will feel relatively, I think, more morally open about that.

It's a little bit different when it's like the sovereign's capital for the people and then the U.S.
