9:05 pm
welcome back to the category four and imax keyser time out to go to a catamaran out in the caribbean off of cancun or i added a chance to talk with patrick byrne of overstock dot com who's coming out of course with zero patrick for traffic welcome back to the cars report thank you max you know me it's my honor as always you know some talk about lambeau you know you've taken it up of course to the next level with you know on the catamaran sets a stick and imagine yesterday there with sending a tussle and out of space you know you're part of the visionaries of this world and you know i'm going to stop that well i should be clear this is the hotel's count around yeah we've been started maybe we should ask the hotel and see if we can launch this and outers you know i think that's only appropriate now let's talk you know i often say that the history of bitcoin is really two stages there was the
9:06 pm
protocol launch in two thousand and nine and then there's static burn and what i mean a by that that this industry was always going to have a rendezvous with the f.c.c. . you know it started off as a kind of a hobbyist paradise it became a currency it became widespread and now this week we've had some hearings in washington from the f.c.c. and first my first question is patrick. do you is it fair to say that you have been waiting for this day and so this is no big surprise to anything you've seen so far you kind of like what you'd expect correct. yeah correct and it is you get the the dramatic are where you get the irony involved in this whole narrative arc that we've that this is turned up but yes. it's what i've expected in terms of the empire striking back you mean like that of the pushback. from the establishment let me give you some background so in other words. the episode that you had at
9:07 pm
overstock and being the c.e.o. you did battle with the short sellers and the naked short sellers and there is kind of a loophole in the way transactions are clear on wall street where the book that is keeping track of what are the buys and sells is. correlated on a daily basis and you can be selling stock that doesn't exist or not cover that stock for a period of time and you can engage in a coordinated attack on a stock price and you went to battle on that front and the lessons learned from that patrick you preload it i think i may say you were you were jesus year zero project and so it's going to be mad at your city to go to match your strumming my face with your fingers is it really characterization another that's
9:08 pm
about and i learned a whole lot in the course of the outlaws series i grew up in the holy church a capital markets i riz raised by economists in a business intellectuals and i love capital markets and when i'm when i got public and started wandering around zero two four and five and started understanding what was going on including i was there was a bunch of small skunk and there was a bunch of skunk in there and there were people who asked me up in greenwich connecticut to ask me to take part in stuff so i was a speculating i knew what was going on because people are asking me to take part in it i thought life was like the pelican brief or you figured it all julia roberts figures it out writes up a draft puts that the whole world comes for aid turns out it doesn't work like that because when all roads lead back to goldman sachs and what you're doing is it turns out you're exposing a huge source of profitability mesha guess that is a source of profitability for goldman sachs the whole world sort of attacks you so i will not talk about picking up on that because. goldman sachs and wall street
9:09 pm
they are in the business of making markets in those markets there is a spread and by being both the buyer and the seller in these markets and providing quote unquote liquidity they are highly profitable in a business with you might argue very little risk in a way and they're printing money ok let's talk about your latest creation g.'s euro because this is as the name implies really touch into a huge profit center because there is no. ability to do a lot of the shenanigans that we've seen over the years is that a fair statement and can you give us an update on teaser well i would say and because there are various public offerings going on i have to be somewhat restricted by what i say i can't talk about the profitability or potential profitability but yes this diagnosed exactly what we're doing we're taking this core business of goldman and the various prime brokers unfortunately i don't think they make all their money from just buying and selling i think there's also
9:10 pm
manipulation and as you and i have talked about as you just mentioned so it's not only it's not only is attractive because i think it takes about eighty or ninety percent of these friction costs out of the system so what it really does it is that will block change based capital market will eliminate the possibility of all kinds of mischief so whether turns out to be. profitable or you know we're taking on the establishment so i can't guarantee anything but some one simple example would be the number of shares that a company has in their float would be on the block chain and it's amenable and it's accountable and example against rights in iraq obvious advantage to block change complete transparency for of a regulator you know when regulators see illegal activity in the market now they blew sheeted they try to track it and they can't even at all disappears into a mist of priene adding in that. thing and slice dice circumcising and nobody
9:11 pm
actually knows who's behind these trades because everything is netted all that can be stripped in the regulators can have one hundred percent transparency and a good tomic level of the market right to some background on this phrase netting and trade having an experience on wall street myself like in senate confirmation to a customer with a price that does not reflect my commission because of what i did in that sense that change on the spread and the huge wakil room that goes on and there are guidelines etc but there are only abuse so that's where the f.c.c. let's get into that they had hearings this week they finally caught up to the block saying a big point there now answering the arena. where are we in this is why i preface this by saying you're battle hardened and ready to go is that what i would be hearing to go in your view were what did you learn or. how did you view the hearing well what i'm seeing is that the regulators are not monolithic there
9:12 pm
are humans and there's different groups within the regulators some people within the regulators really get blocked change for example the people who are concerned with systemic risk get it and love it the people who are concerned with really enforcing the rules they love the fact that this will take a whole bunch of mischief out of the system the people who seem in my experience at the federal level who seem to be opposed to block chain are i believe well ten years ago let's put it this way i meant a lot of officials who i think they were dusting up their resumes for their applications to big law firms to work for goldman sachs and they had no interest in and any of the things i had to expose before away. i think it's actually a different world now and there's a lot more regulars who care about things like systemic risk and such but there are there's still an element in the regulatory class. who i think they're. at
9:13 pm
least their position has been to push back on this for i think no more of the reasons than you know they got in there on some one speed dial somebody in greenwich connecticut has a speed dial you can tell the regulator pushback on that it's going to eliminate our profit opera and we're not that explicitly but anyway so there is regulatory pushback but i see more and more of the regulators. you know i've been down here we're doing tank koon this week max so i'm not entirely sure but i think that the regulators are showing real movement and understanding of this is a good thing overall it's a good thing it's not good for their you know their clients if you view their clients of the captured regulators as being bold in fact it's not good for the the the regulatory clients but if and that's their client industry that they have had a history of protecting but i think we're i think they realize this is too big for them to stop and there are plenty of people and the regulatory community who want who are. there are open to this going forward that's
9:14 pm
a very diplomatic thing my tell me yeah that leaves at as you always do good cop bad cop when i hear comments from these regulators that are like you know we need us there in this new generation of entrepreneurs and risk takers and the their warm little cup of milk and their bedtime and such on them and wish them good luck this is the old good cop bad cop patrick you would be the least naive person in the space i can imagine holding springs eternal hope springs eternal i don't head what do you mean you're doing so at that so i thought that there's no none of these folks are going to give up and instead the monopoly pricing power of wall street and this is going to be a tooth and nail battle i don't see how it can't be. just a now about now having said that your product as i understand it is a category killer you know you're going to wipe out all the inefficiencies like hoover killed you know the business in a lot of ways a transfer on the business p.d.p. . file swapping kill the business with cheese dear oh you all right because you're
9:15 pm
already. where you are you've got you know you could be the guy in the moment on wall street your thoughts your family from your lips to god's ear certainly i'm aiming to do that and we're are now we're raising capital do that and i would. you know i would emphasize this is a moon shot i'd love to hear your thoughts on my chances because you know we're raising two hundred fifty million bucks that with which we hope to sort of recreate or rebuild a wall street acco system but a complete block chain version of that i don't know are you sure to let me just say fifty fifty what are the chances that we can do that without getting blown up for me thrown in jail fifty fifty eight or one hundred percent chance of success because they know they're evil and evil loses at the end of the day and still should not come out is pure goodness pure goodness it's it's merits pratik it's
9:16 pm
a paradigm busting and the f.c.c. is way behind the curve they're just learning about this by the time they finally figure out they've been feet it'll be too late and that's the way it's designed you know there are guys here i've met in the last two days if one of us doesn't disrupt wall street the other one well i can tell you that we there well there is some fantastic technology coming i've been trying to tell the f.c.c. for three years and it's. yeah well they it is good to see that they are having hearings and waking up and getting that this this is going to change the their world right. well we've got about a minute left and i guess i would be remiss if i didn't explain to people that the reason yeah this particular style clothing and i were going to actually enter the dragon on the beach right i'm going to be bruce lee i believe you can be chuck norris you killed my father i must have revenge. the zero is going to go on wall
9:17 pm
street and i think that'll really go over well could be and over stock marketing material what do you think i mean i'm sure a lot of that i mean this is you beg for this type of branding i mean this is sent from satoshi i'm sol. i don't think there's anything i can do at this point that we're shocked the shareholders maybe i don't mean to ferret out but there's always room to chalk and all our hopes all right back to burn thanks so much for being on the cars to report to see you again max i love your i love your i love the cars a report watch it all the thought well thank you so much and that does it for this edition of the kaiser report with a nice guys are his days are numbered like to thank our guest patrick byrne of teaser oh if you want to reach us on twitter it's kaiser report bill till next time by oh.
