Scenes From a Regional Branch at $97,000

We gotta talk.

Okay, talk.

These MARA orders aren’t marked unsolicited. Neither are the MSTR buys.

They’re not unsolicited. I solicited. Hard.

John.

I don’t care. I’m not waiting. I asked you guys for three years to help me with this. My clients would like to actually make money for a change, this is what we’re doing.

The policy is the policy. No unsolicited crypto stuff. You can only buy if the client instructs you. Clients must have the Crypto Risk letter on file with Compliance and all buy orders are to be marked unsolicited. That’s not my rule. That’s the firm rule.

The firm is wrong. How much longer can you guys watch this happening without us?

We’re constructive on blockchain as a theme. House view is bullish now.

The house view is bullshit. The desk is trading for itself. Prime is trading it with hedge funds. Why can’t I trade it?

You can. Unsolicited.

Fuck you, Tommy.

Fuck you too, John.

You guys shoulda let me when the Blackstone ETF came out. That was at fifty thousand. We’re gonna break a hundred thousand and you got me sitting here like an asshole.

BlackRock.

What?

The ETF. It’s BlackRock, not Blackstone.

Fuck you.

Fuck you.

You know how dumb you’re making me look.

It’s not me. You know how it works. Laura is CIO, you wanna try her again, be my guest.

Laura’s too busy to return my call. She doesn’t know anything about crypto.

It’s her team’s call. How many times we gotta do this.

Because she can get on CNBC once a month it’s her call?

That’s enough John.

You suck.

No you suck.

We playing Sunday?

Yeah, we have a 7am. Indian Hill.

Thanks for nothing.

See you later.
