Hello again Everyone!
 
Time is flying by, and the world is certainly not slowing down.  That said, I have several updates to share and a few extras to add to last week’s helpful links.  Let’s get started.
 
Special AMA Meeting This Sunday Evening!
 
I will be hosting an “AMA” (“Ask Me Anything”) call on Sunday night at 8PM Eastern.  New details about the site, links, memberships etc. will all be discussed – and then it is an open forum for anything you want to ask.  We can talk about cryptocurrency, the economy, my upcoming appearances, the Myrtle Beach meetup – it’s all up to you.  Looking forward to speaking with you all!

I’ll put the short version of the link to the call here, but the longer version will be below.

Again that is 8PM Eastern Time this Sunday (9/26) - See you then!


New Subscription Options (and a Deal!)
 
First, I want to thank all of you who have put faith in everything I’m doing this year, and to see the success many of you are having along your journey towards financial freedom is very rewarding.  I am very thankful for this community, and as part of that, I wanted to make adjustments for LitecoinLeader.com for what I think will be better in the long run.
 
The subscriber content will be migrating over towards Patreon, simply because it is easier to set up and maintain for what I want to offer.  A lot of you already subscribe to at least one other influencer over at Patreon, so everyone should be familiar with it.  (If not, it’s very easy to learn).  Now you can get immediate access to content and find everything in one place – and I can communicate more directly to all the subscribers, even if it is just to share some thoughts.
 
As for memberships, I will have three (3) levels to start, similar to what is on LitecoinLeader.com:
 
Destiny - $20 a month, as before.  This will include this newsletter, at least one coin review a month, financial freedom tips, additional comments on the Patreon page and helpful hints on LitecoinLeader.com, as well as “AMA” meetings with myself and the other subscribers.


Legacy - $40 a month plus a 30-minute call every three (3) months for a nominal $39 fee ($99 overall for the call) PLUS everything included in the Destiny membership level.
 
Power Pinnacle - $50 a month plus a 50-minute call every three (3) months for a nominal $59 fee ($149 overall for the call) PLUS everything included in the Destiny membership level.
 
These discounted meetings will only be made available to each tier member, and not on my normal calendar / Calendly page.  I’m trying to be fair and available to everyone, but only my true subscribers / Patreons will be able to get these discounted meetings.  


All of the updates to both Patreon and LitecoinLeader.com will be done ASAP.
 
Note - Anyone who has paid for a membership in September will receive a $10 discount code for October. 


I will describe this in further detail and add all of this to LitecoinLeader.com.  We'll transition as smoothly as possible.




Appearances in October
 
I recently posted a video about where I will be from October 1st and the weekend of the 10th, starting in Utah and then in Texas.  I will be speaking with Bitcoin Ben, Miss Teen Crypto and Litecoin Lisa (and many more) in the “Silicon Slopes” area about 45 minutes south of Salt Lake City (near Provo) for just one day only on Friday, October 1st, and at a just $39 a ticket it is an amazing price for this one-day event.  The following weekend I will be in Boerne, Texas (about 30-40 minutes northwest of San Antonio) for the fourth installment of Bitcoin Ben’s founder meeting, and odds are that I will be handed the microphone at least once while I am there. 
 
Between those two appearances I will be spending time with Divi Daddy, and together we are offering several opportunities to interact and hang out while we are both in Texas.  You can meet with us on either Wednesday or Thursday live, face-to-face if you are there early for the event, and as a special thank you to anyone and everyone who has ever worked with either of us this year, we are also going to sponsor an event Friday evening for drinks and socializing in Boerne.  Stay tuned for more details on that, but again, this is a thank you from both of us to all of you, so please join us in Texas for the fun!
 
Simple(swap) Ways to Get Your Coins
 
For those of you who are looking for alternative options to get your own cryptocurrencies, last week I did provide a link to a new Over-the-counter (“OTC”) desk that can help you with the process.  CoinTradingCo.com is your solution to get coins (again, #NFA, Not Financial Advice) should you want to use a US-based over the counter company.  Here’s the summary once again:
 
I mentioned this last week, but it is extremely important that you get familiar with an OTC option for buying and selling cryptocurrencies.  I have looked at many options, and the best one in the US is CoinTradingCo.  The fees are rolled into the cost of the trade and it is just 3.5%, again similar to that other popular OTC desk. I’ve spoken to the owners and done two trades with them already with great success. 
 
 
https://cointradingco.com/affiliates/refer/45e22985
 
They are available in 43 US states (AL, AK, FL, NV, NM, NY and WA are excluded at this time) and Canada.  Simply wire the funds ($2,000 trade minimum) to their bank and all quotes and trades are done via text message.  Email them your address for your coins and they magically appear.  That’s it.  They are open during normal East Coast business hours (M-F 9-5).


Now, if you simply want to swap one coin for another (including from a stable coin like USDC or TUSD), you can use a site like Simpleswap.  Joanna will be adding this to LitecoinLeader.com soon, but for now, here is the link:


SimpleSwap




If you are not familiar with how to use Simpleswap, I suggest re-watching my video on how to get THETA and TFUEL.  It is quite easy to just exchange one cryptocurrency for another on Simpleswap, and you only need to include the address of the wallet to which you will receive the new coins.  The rates are solid as well for the exchange, and it is hard to compete with the simplicity of the transaction(s).  As I always say, I don't endorse what I don't use, and I have used Simpleswap for quite a while now.


Between CoinTradingCo.com and SimpleSwap, you should be in great shape to get nearly any coin you would want - but if you can't, you have my number.  Also remember that the CoinGecko app can tell you where to get some of the smaller coins that are tougher to find.


Heads up on ABRA
 
Just a quick “heads up” on ABRA’s policies.  Everyone is getting tighter on how they allow you to withdraw funds, especially exchanges like Coinbase.  ABRA has a restriction of 60 days if you add funds from your banks, as they call it an “AML” or Anti-Money Laundering rule.  Really doesn’t matter how or why, but just be aware that if you add funds to ABRA, they will be there for two months and cannot be withdrawn until after 60 days pass.  Keep that in mind.  The good news is that your money is secure since ABRA is also a wallet – and as always, keep those seed words in a safe place.
 
Global Economics
 
We can talk more about this on the AMA, but the world’s eyes are on the impending collapse of China’s Evergrande real estate development company.  They are on the verge of defaulting on their debts, which will have an impact across all financial markets.  The results could be severe, so be sure to check in on the AMA for more updates, but until then check out Coin Bureau’s very thorough update here.
 
Recent LitecoinLeader Videos 


Once again I was putting out several videos, including a coin review of TEZOS for subscribers (sorry, not linking here, have to subscribe for that one), but here's a quick rundown of my videos for the past week or so:


The "Cup with Handle" Chart Pattern
Updated XRP Coin Review
How Whales Move the Price of Bitcoin
What do Rainbows Have to do with Bitcoin?
Green on a Red Day
Updated OMG Coin Review
How to Spot Pump and Dumps
Avoiding Common Staking Mistakes


Also here is a video I shot with my local Chamber of Commerce.  These can be very powerful and well worth doing if you choose to be involved in cryptocurrency.


Well, that’s about it for this week.  I’ll try and get you an update between Utah and Texas, but October is going to start off with a lot of travel, so forgive me if I’m a little less available as I travel across our great country.  Best wishes and may all your coins have green days!

​Hello again Everyone!
 
As promised, this e-mail will focus predominantly on ways to help you along your journey into the world of cryptocurrency.  If you can’t find at least one helpful tip in here, let me know what you are looking for and I will personally try and find it for you.
 
All the helpful content will be at the end of this email – and there will be no fewer than 10 tips to keep and use going forwards.  Enjoy!
 
Time Marches On
 
As we turn the calendar past Labor Day and head towards the final four months of the year, I wanted to reflect on some aspects of the most precious commodity we all have – our time.  I did three videos (all shot in one day, which was fun and crazy) on the topic this week, and they are only about 10 minutes each.  Give them a listen here:
 
Time Management Playlist (3 Videos)
 
 
Also, if you enjoyed these types of videos, please Like, Subscribe, Comment and Share the videos.  I’m trying to get the channel up to 1,000 people, which is really the tipping point for a channel to break out.  Sharing a video or two could really help me get there.  Thanks.
 
 
Best Video I Saw This Week
 
We’ve all been hearing about El Salvador’s official announcement of their adoption of Bitcoin as their national currency.  That’s real time history being made this week, for certain, but what is the real impact?  Mark Moss did a fantastic job of not only covering it but doing the “boots on the ground” approach in the Bitcoin Beach area of El Salvador.  This video shows the value of Bitcoin to all the Salvadorans and how difficult (dare I say corrupt?) the banking system is in that country.  It costs $50 a month for people to simply have a bank account.  That’s downright criminal.  Most people barely make $100 a month, so Bitcoin is a godsend.
 
Here’s the video, it’s well worth watching.


 
Before I share a rather lengthy list of tips (save this e-mail), if there's something that I didn't cover or that you need individual help with, email or call or text me at (240) 517-6051, or just set up a time for us to talk.  I'm keeping the $149 founders special until the end of September, but after that it will likely have to go back up just because there's a lot going on and the time left in the year is running lower, so - as they say - act now!

Take advantage of this.....


$149 hour special for the rest of September!


Now, one last thing before I list all of the tips… I know your time is valuable and I greatly appreciate you sharing some of it to read all of this.  Any and all feedback is welcome and will only make everything better as we continue our paths to financial freedom.  I look forward to reading all of your replies.  Thanks in advance. 


 
Helpful Tips
 
As promised, here are several different helpful tips for you.  I’ll provide each link and a description as to why to use them.  Several are affiliate links (meaning I do get something if you use them) but a couple of things – I don’t provide any affiliate links that I either have used myself or that I haven’t fully vetted (or both).  I don’t really endorse much but when I do – even with an affiliation – I only do it with those that I fully trust.  I know how important that is.
 
Lastly, I know that some of these topics can be complicated, and while I am unable to offer financial advice (#NFA), I can advise you on some things on a consultation.  For example, I recently re-established accounts on both Kucoin and Gate.io, which can be challenging even for crypto veterans like myself.  If you ever have a need like that, you know I'm here!  Set up some time!


Did I happen to mention this?

Now for the rest of the good stuff.


Here we go.
 
 
DIVI Master Nodes
 
One of the most popular questions I get is about DIVI, and how to get a Master Node.  Well, I decided to directly help people in getting set up with DIVI – and all I charge for is my time.  I don’t mark up the coins at all – we get a quote for you and I make sure that when we are finished that your node is up and running.  Just $100 for the smaller nodes (Copper, Silver) and a little more for the bigger ones – which works out to be around 1% of the cost of the DIVI itself.  Trust me, you won’t find a better deal on DIVI. The top two appointments on my calendar are dedicated to DIVI master nodes:

Borrowing Against Your Crypto

Are you “crypto rich” but cash poor?  Do you need access to some extra cash, just in case of emergency? Or maybe you just want to know how to borrow against your Bitcoin, Ethereum or other coins?  I got you covered.  NEXO is the best option that I have found, and I use them myself.  You immediately get a 50% credit line for BTC and ETH and can put it straight to work:

If you need any lessons, just call or set up a time – I’m here to help!
 
Custodians for Cryptocurrency
 
If you are not the “hands on” type for crypto or if you just want to invest by writing a check to someone that can help you, then Viva Capital is your best option.  They are the best “white glove service” concierge that I have found, and they offer fantastic services such as insurance, earning returns on your cryptocurrency and even unique investment options.  Now they do have a minimum investment level of $100,000, but as prices continue to increase, don’t you want to protect (and insure) your wealth?  The services that they provide for a nominal annual fee (paid quarterly) is well worth it.
 
Viva Capital believes in investing not just in cryptocurrencies but in relationships with their clients.  They want a good fit for you, and I personally use (and work with) them on a regular basis.  Give me a call if you want to discuss Viva and we can decide if what they offer is the right fit for you.

Crypto IRAs
 
I like to offer choices to everyone – that way you get to make your own decision between two good options.  Everyone wins! 
 
A few years ago I worked with Will Lehr at Perpetual Assets to set up my cryptocurrency IRA.  It took a little bit of time, but it was well worth it to have that IRA set up to buy what I really wanted to invest in for the long term.  Here’s the contact info, and just tell them “LitecoinLeader sent you” and Will and his team will take good care of you, or use the link below:
 
https://www.perpetualassets.com/ira?a_aid=LitecoinLeader&a_bid=eeb815e6
 
Now, back then I did not know the team at Viva Capital, nor did they have a Crypto IRA option.  Their solution is also a very good one, and Michelle offers not only IRA assistance but can also help with LLC and other legal structure and planning advice.  She knows way more than I do in these departments, and having the ability to tell her what the situation is and get the best advice for legal protection is virtually priceless.

Cash App
The simplest way to get anyone into Bitcoin. 
 
Hey! I’ve been using Cash App to send money and spend using the Cash Card. Try it using my code and you’ll get $5. LGXHJLM
https://cash.app/app/LGXHJLM
 
No affiliates, just good info:


Exodus app
My favorite cryptocurrency wallet, available on PC, Mac and mobile.
 
https://www.exodus.com/
 
ABRA app (in the app store)
Highly, highly underrated app. It is BOTH a wallet and an exchange, and that’s a rare find. They also offer interest on stable coins (8.5% last I checked).  Remember interest?
 
Top US Exchanges:
Coinbase
Kraken
Binance.US
Gemini
 
Top Coin Tracking Sites and apps:
Coinmarketcap
CoinGecko
 
I prefer CoinGecko as my top app to go and find a new coin and what exchange supports it.  The other important info to find is the wallet that supports any coin.  Newer coins are often tough – but that’s why I’m here.  Call me if you get stuck.
 
 
Additional info:
Wallets:
Trust wallet (app store)
Atomic wallet (app store)
  
Both of these wallets support all Ethereum-based (ERC20) coins, and Atomic offers staking options. Trust is mobile platform only but Atomic in on PC / Mac and mobile.

​Hello Everyone!
 
They used to say that the “third time's the charm”, but last week wasn’t as productive as I would have liked it to be – but as I said in one of my videos, you have to make peace with some things in order to move forwards.  I only was able to get three videos done last week, but I was able to help a number of people on the phone and in some appointments, so that’s a bonus.  I also finally got into one of my local Chambers of Commerce, so we’ll see how fruitful that becomes.  Speaking of that, I highly recommend that you give your local chamber a call and ask them a few questions.  Usually they are rather helpful and engaging – after all, that’s their job – and if you get a chance to talk to someone that knows the ins and outs of both the area and the businesses, you will get some valuable insight.  Take the time to call them and talk to them about who you are and what you are doing, and also find out about the chamber(s) in the area.  Is there one for your city or town, or is it a county-wide chamber?  In my particular area, there are actually three – one for each major town (Myrtle Beach, North Myrtle Beach and Conway) but none for the county, which is interesting.  I was fortunate enough to get introduced to the Director of Economic Development for one of them, and he gave me not only the rundown of how each of them work but also to let me know the size of the chamber membership and how unique (and popular, as a result) my particular business will be.  Hint – odds are you will be the only cryptocurrency business in your chamber, so definitely take advantage of that status!  One more thing off of my list…. Speaking of which….


Getting it Done
 
I was able to get a video released last week on the topic of accomplishments and lists.  That’s probably one of my favorite topics and “aha” realizations.  You do need perspective, and you cannot beat yourself up over what you don’t get done.  Rather, celebrate what you DO accomplish and then reprioritize for next week.  It’s a good exercise because – as you will quickly learn with any new endeavor – there is always something to be done, and the list never seems to end.  For example, a typical week for myself includes (but is not limited to):

• Weekly Emails (such as this one)
• Consultation Appointments
• Making videos
• Adding to LitecoinLeader.com
• Business development (a catch-all but can be anything from signs, joining a chamber, getting business cards, setting up an appointment tool such as Calendly, etc.)
• Education (watching other videos, reading, learning new tools and how to do new things as they emerge)

 
…and whatever else pops up each week.  It’s funny how you start a new business and it consumes a lot of your time almost immediately, and you wonder how you ever did anything else but your new career.  That’s why it is so important to plan your week as best as you can and review it at the start of the next week to see how you can improve, and if you need to adjust priorities and time allotments.  It may sound daunting and possibly overwhelming, but turning a passion into a career certainly makes it far more enjoyable.  There’s never a dull moment in cryptocurrency and with Bitcoin, that’s for certain.  Now, about Bitcoin….
 
Bitcoin revisits $50,000
 
We all saw this coming, right?  But maybe not with such speed.  Bitcoin was in the $30K’s not too long ago, so those who happened to time it just right have seen significant profits – on paper.  That’s just it – no profit (or loss) is real until you sell whatever it is you invested in – always keep that in mind.  Now that people are starting to hear all the numbers, it is becoming more and more known that there are fewer and fewer bitcoin available for sale, which is only going to drive the price up in the long term.  Short term price volatility is always expected, but 2-3 years from now everyone will be wishing for prices under $100K more than likely.
 
Other coins are starting to blast off as well.  Cardano fans – and I know that there are plenty of them out there – have seen the price of ADA go from under $1 to nearly $3 in about a month.  With a new upgrade coming on September 12th for Cardano called “Alonzo” that will finally add smart contracts to the platform, people are hopping on board if they weren’t there already.  There is also a bit of a supply shortage for ADA as over 70% of the coins are staked, reducing the available number of coins.  That’s been happening for Bitcoin as well as recent metrics have revealed that exchanges like Coinbase and Gemini have seen over 110,000 bitcoin taken off of their platforms in the past 30 days.  That’s right, over 110K bitcoin in a month.  That’s why it is so hard to get bitcoin off of exchanges.  Get them off now!
 
What it all means for you – and for me
 
There’s so much going on – not just in cryptocurrency and with Bitcoin, but everywhere – it is impossible for just one person to keep up.  That’s why we have this community where we share whatever we can, however we can.  So two simple things – make peace that you will never ever be “on top of everything” because that’s just not possible.  Secondly, I’m going to personally try and remember that message each and every day (might be worth posting around your house near your goals list…..) and just keep plugging along.  Each and every day, just try and improve.  Keep it simple.  Do better in something each day.  Get something done, or closer to done, on your list.  Learn more.  Share more.  Help someone.  That’s my takeaways.
 
Well that was a longer email but I hope that helped. Bitcoin, Cardano and cryptos in general seem to be heading in the right direction again, and we can all remember how things were as recently as the last bull run from December to May.  Is this the start of it? Hard to tell, but it would not surprise me at all. 
 
So in the interest of helping you all in some way, here are my videos from last week including the announcement of our winner of ALTCOINopoly last Friday and a special interview I did with DiviDaddy and his two kids who are already more knowledgeable about cryptocurrency than most adults:
 
Lastly, here’s a few links for everyone to both reach me for additional help and also a link to get started on borrowing against your cryptocurrency – or at least, setting up a credit line so that you can get cash against your Bitcoin or Ethereum (or 30+ other coins) if you want or need to have access to more money:
