1
00:00:00.300 --> 00:00:03.600
I don't know if the company digital power lending is an MCA company per se.

2
00:00:03.700 --> 00:00:06.400
It did say that they MCA was one product

3
00:00:06.400 --> 00:00:09.600
among many that they offer, but

4
00:00:09.600 --> 00:00:12.900
that they are now offering a product that has Bitcoin

5
00:00:12.900 --> 00:00:15.400
as collateral. So, digital power lending, is

6
00:00:15.400 --> 00:00:18.500
the license lender in California and they offer a small business

7
00:00:18.500 --> 00:00:21.700
finance. And if you go to their website, they look a lot like other small

8
00:00:21.700 --> 00:00:24.400
business lending companies and, you know, commercial finance

9
00:00:24.400 --> 00:00:27.400
companies, but now they have this new product and

10
00:00:27.400 --> 00:00:29.800
I think they're trying to tap into a market.

11
00:00:30.100 --> 00:00:33.600
It has a significant amount of Bitcoin Holdings. Yeah,

12
00:00:33.600 --> 00:00:36.600
and one way to monetize those Holdings without

13
00:00:36.600 --> 00:00:39.600
actually selling your Bitcoin. I guess it's tomorrow against it.

14
00:00:39.800 --> 00:00:42.400
So that's that's a new part of that. They're offering. I think they

15
00:00:42.400 --> 00:00:45.700
want to offer loans that are between the size of like 1 million

16
00:00:45.700 --> 00:00:48.200
to 25 million, 25 million dollars. So

17
00:00:48.200 --> 00:00:51.300
these are very large you. I wouldn't even consider that small business. I

18
00:00:51.300 --> 00:00:54.700
think I think they even said, like small publicly traded companies

19
00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:57.800
was technically their Target customer, but

20
00:00:57.800 --> 00:00:59.900
nevertheless, here we have

21
00:01:00.700 --> 00:01:03.700
Bitcoin as an asset that can be used as collateral. I

22
00:01:03.700 --> 00:01:06.300
think it kind of tells me one

23
00:01:06.300 --> 00:01:09.800
thing, and that is that Bitcoins price

24
00:01:09.800 --> 00:01:12.400
not going up is actually

25
00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:15.600
a good thing in a way. Yeah, because it's been relatively

26
00:01:15.600 --> 00:01:18.300
stable for the last couple months, you know, everyone gets

27
00:01:18.300 --> 00:01:21.200
all caught up in Bitcoins going to go up and you have to buy

28
00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:24.500
it because it's going to go up to here and you go you're going to become a millionaire. Yeah.

29
00:01:24.500 --> 00:01:27.800
The next day chops to hear ya and then you have the hangover but

30
00:01:27.100 --> 00:01:30.000
one Bitcoin kind of hangs around the same price.

31
00:01:30.100 --> 00:01:33.200
Strange for a while. It's actually a good thing if

32
00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:36.800
you were a lender because now you start to have a valuation for

33
00:01:36.800 --> 00:01:39.400
an asset. You can say, you know what, we might be able to lend against

34
00:01:39.400 --> 00:01:42.400
it. If it's going to hold relatively steady. Yeah, it's been holding around

35
00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:45.300
like 40 40, some odd thousand dollars for quite

36
00:01:45.300 --> 00:01:48.200
a few months. And here's a company that's trying

37
00:01:48.200 --> 00:01:51.100
to take advantage if there's a if there's a company out

38
00:01:51.100 --> 00:01:54.400
there that has Bitcoin on its balance sheet. It's like, okay great, but

39
00:01:54.400 --> 00:01:57.200
now we're not liquid and we don't want to get rid of it because we

40
00:01:57.200 --> 00:02:00.000
think it's going to hold some future value while you can borrow against it.
