Welcome back to Crypto Curious! I’m Tracey, joined as always by my co-host Blake, and this week we’re unpacking a big shift in the markets — because so much for Uptober!
After six straight years of green, October finally broke its streak, closing in the red. We’ll dig into what’s behind the pullback, what it means for the next stage of the cycle, and whether “Moonvember” still has a chance.
Then we turn to MetaMask — the wallet giant making waves with its long-awaited $MASK token and new rewards season that’s got the crypto community buzzing.
We’ll wrap with a quick word on Aus Crypto Con, plus your short, sharp news bites — including everything from a $128M Balancer hack to Tether’s record profits and the rise of the digital euro.
It’s a packed episode of Crypto Curious — let’s get into it 🚀
