Listen "22. Frosted beer glass "
Episode Synopsis
This week we talk about finding a good home for Boston Dynamics’ robot dogs, Amazon destroying stock, how people talked about the internet back in the day, and Axie Infinity keeps growing.
Then after our non-sponsor, we turn to This Week in Crypto. Binance got two more regulatory darts to the neck on the day of recording, this time from Lithuania and Hong Kong. As the founder of Doge rage quits crypto on the basis it reinforces the existing order, we ponder the nature of power. ShapeShift does the biggest airdrop ever, but how should regulators think about decentralised governance? And Square is about to decentralise some financial services, astonishingly. In a quick fire round, we talk TikTok shilling ban, Power Ledger’s move to Solana, Polygon usurping Ethereum, Bitcoin.org DDoS, Bumper Finance as a volatility safety net, and hodlers hodling more. Then we close with Shitcoin vs Fakecoin.
