Tracey & Blake are holding down the mic today and after a little 'Fear & Greed' debrief they head straight into 'Crypto Chats' in the White House. This is where top crypto executives are meeting to discuss future U.S. regulations just ahead of the upcoming election, and the stakes couldn’t be higher! They'll also cover the latest twist in the FTX SBF saga, as FTX and Alameda Research are ordered to pay a staggering $12.7 billion to creditors. Plus, Brazil’s SEC gives the green light to the country’s first Solana-based ETF, putting Solana on the global crypto map. And finally, we'll unpack Celsius' $3.5 billion lawsuit against Tether, where Celsius claims improper liquidation of Bitcoin collateral during its bankruptcy.


All this plus our short, sharp news bites - your crypto made easy!
