This week on the show, we have Blake and Tracey on the mic as they explore how the Trump assassination attempt is impacting the crypto market, with a focus on prediction markets and Trump-themed tokens. The crypto market is making a strong comeback recently, so it's timely to cover the significant gains in Bitcoin and Ethereum and the SEC drops its investigation into Bitcoin Layer 2, Stacks, marking a big win for DeFi. That plus, Blake hit up last week's Ethereum Community Conference in Brussels, so we get the full lowdown on that.
Get ready for a lively discussion on the latest shocks and speculations in the crypto world!
