Welcome back to the Crypto Curious podcast 👋🏼
Every Wednesday we break down the biggest stories in crypto and help you make sense of the week — whether you’re brand new to the space or already deep in the ecosystem.
👉🏼 This week, we’re kicking off December with a small market shake as Bitcoin starts the month with a bit of a wobble. We’ll unpack what’s behind the move and what it signals heading into year-end.
👉🏼 Then we shift to Ethereum, where the next major upgrade — Fusaka — is on the horizon. We’ll walk through what it aims to solve, what it unlocks, and why developers are calling it a meaningful step forward for the network.
👉🏼And finally, prediction markets are taking a major leap on-chain. Kalshi is tokenizing their markets on Solana, bringing a regulated prediction platform into the crypto world in a way we haven’t seen before.
Lots to get through — so, let’s get into it 🚀

December 17, 2025
•18m
Welcome back to the Crypto Curious podcast - our final for 2025!
Today’s episode is a special one as our O.G crew is back together. I’m Tracey and joining me in the hot seat are Blake and Craig Jackson for our end-of-year wrap.
We’re looking back at the year that was in crypto, the all-time highs, the pullbacks, the memecoin madness, the slower but crucial progress on regulation, and what all of it meant for everyday investors using dollar cost averaging.
We’ll unpack the biggest themes that defined 2025, dig deeper into a few of the most important shifts, and then finish with our thoughts on what could matter most in 2026 and beyond.
It’s been a big year — so let’s get into it 🚀
