The full crew is back with Tracey, Blake & Craig on the mic to deliver another huge episode. They kick off in Germany as it has begun selling $3 billion of Bitcoin seized from a movie piracy site, causing increased market volatility and a 10% drop in Bitcoin over two weeks. Bitcoin's decline worsened after Mt. Gox announced creditor repayments, sparking fears of a sell-off. Additionally, 3iQ launched a Solana Fund for exposure to SOL's price movements and staking rewards. That, plus the Board Apes Yacht Club NFT collection has dropped 90% from its all-time highs, now trading below 10 ETH.
Join us as we unpack these exciting developments and their implications for the crypto world.
