#981 Will Clemente On If Bitcoin Just Hit The Bottom

Will Clemente is the Lead Insights Analyst at Blockware. He has quickly become one of my favorite writers on all things Bitcoin, including deep dives on various on-chain analytics.

If you’re a regular listener of the podcast, I would bet that two things are true: First: You’re passionate about Web3 and protecting your personal data And two: that you’re a human.
 
If I’m right, then congratulations! You’re entitled to all the benefits of the decentralized web. But there’s a catch: As Web3-enabled tech — like NFTs, smart contracts, and DAOs — drive more elements of our “real world” lives online, proving that you’re a person – without surrendering personal data – becomes exponentially more valuable. And exponentially more difficult.
 
This is why Unstoppable Domains launched Humanity Check. 
 
Humanity Check proves that you’re, well, you – without revealing personal data. No matter where you go on the web, you’ll have total control over which apps you want to share data with…and which ones you don’t.
 
Prefer to be completely clouded in mystique? No worries – Humanity Check is 100% opt in. If you want to feel alive, or at least prove you are, head to http://UnstoppableDomains.com and get your NFT domain with Humanity Check.

If you’re a regular listener of the podcast, I would bet that two things are true: First: You’re passionate about Web3 and protecting your personal data And two: that you’re a human.
 
If I’m right, then congratulations! You’re entitled to all the benefits of the decentralized web. But there’s a catch: As Web3-enabled tech — like NFTs, smart contracts, and DAOs — drive more elements of our “real world” lives online, proving that you’re a person – without surrendering personal data – becomes exponentially more valuable. And exponentially more difficult.
 
This is why Unstoppable Domains launched Humanity Check. 
 
Humanity Check proves that you’re, well, you – without revealing personal data. No matter where you go on the web, you’ll have total control over which apps you want to share data with…and which ones you don’t.
 
Prefer to be completely clouded in mystique? No worries – Humanity Check is 100% opt in. If you want to feel alive, or at least prove you are, head to http://UnstoppableDomains.com and get your NFT domain with Humanity Check.

Did you know only 1% of day traders actually turn a profit? So why are so many of us mistaking picking stocks for serious investing? You can’t control the markets, but you can control your risks.

Did you know only 1% of day traders actually turn a profit? So why are so many of us mistaking picking stocks for serious investing? You can’t control the markets, but you can control your risks. So how do billionaire investors control their risk? They invest in blue-chip art. If that sounds unusual to you, you’re not alone. But the ultra-wealthy have been investing in art for centuries. And since 2000, art has outperformed the S&P by an incredible 180%. Just a few years ago, a single work sold for $450 million! Imagine…Being able to invest in the very same paintings as millionaires and billionaires, at a fraction of the cost.

Masterworks.io is an exclusive platform that makes it as easy as trading stocks online. And the best part is: you don’t need to know anything about art. Their experts will create a custom portfolio to meet your investment needs. With Masterworks.io you don’t have to choose between big risks and big returns.
