Welcome back to the Crypto Curious podcast — your weekly dive into the fast-moving world of crypto, where we break down what’s happening, why it matters, and what it means for you.

👉🏼 This week on the show: the October 11 Crypto Crash — the $19 billion bloodbath that sent shockwaves through the market, and the hidden Binance flaw that helped fuel it.

👉🏼 Plus, Swift — yes, the banking giant that moves trillions a day — just entered the blockchain game. But not in the way you think.

We’ve got a massive week to unpack 👇🏼, so let’s get into it 🚀

Before we delve into the hottest topics in the crypto world, let's take a moment to reflect on September's market performance and what "Uptober" might have in store. Are we in for sideways trading or a splash of volatility?

In our first story, we unpack the SEC's decision to delay the approval of Spot Bitcoin ETFs. Plus SEC Chair Gary Gensler is facing mounting pressure from U.S. House lawmakers, who are pushing for immediate action. What's next for ETFs, and how will Gensler respond to these challenges?

Then, get ready for the courtroom drama we've all been waiting for! The trial of Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), the former head of FTX, kicks off with jury selection this week. What can we expect from this trial, and will justice be served? We share our predictions.

We cover Coinbase's perpetual futures trading, Gary V and Mattel's exciting collaboration, Kraken's entry into stock and ETF trading, Pudgy Penguins waddling into Walmart, MoneyGram's non-custodial wallet, Chainlink's cross-chain protocol expansion, the Winklevoss twins' mysterious $280 million withdrawal, and Valkyrie's addition of ether futures to their ETF.

In today's episode, we farewell one of the OG's of Crypto Curious. That's right, Craig is being cancelled!!! But before we get too misty-eyed, we're kicking off with something very on-brand for Craig: a bullish Ethereum update that might just make you want to double down. If you’ve been with us from the start, you’ll know Craig’s been waving the ETH flag since day one — so it’s only fitting.

Then, we dive into a bombshell from the deep pockets of Bitcoin history. One of the original Satoshi-era whales has just moved a jaw-dropping 80,000 BTC — that’s over $9 billion worth — and exited the market. What does it mean? We’ve got thoughts.

And finally, as Craig signs off from his regular spot on the pod, we turn the mic squarely on him. It’s time for a no-holds-barred hot seat moment: his predictions, market sentiment, and maybe even some long-hoarded alpha. This is Craig’s crystal ball episode🔮

Let's go 🚀

It’s a massive week in crypto, and we’re diving straight into the biggest headline of them all:

💥 Bitcoin has smashed through its all-time high, officially entering blue-sky territory with some serious institutional heat behind it.

🤪 But that’s not all… the meme coin platform we all love (or love to hate), Pump.fun, has launched its own token — and let’s just say the drama did not disappoint.

👉🏼 From billion-dollar squeezes to Solana chaos, we’ve got it all.

I’m Tracey, and as always, I’m joined by my co-host Blake to break down the stories, explain what actually matters, and help you make sense of this wild, crazy week in crypto.

Let’s get into it 🚀

TIMESTAMPS

1:28 BTC goes ATH again, and again, and again!

4:26 And Blake stays on the fence!!

Blake appeared on The Dive this week with Sascha to talk about the Reserve Bank - and their trial of the use of a central bank digital currency here in Australia.

The world is rapidly moving towards a cashless society – Cash was used for 59% of point-of-sale transactions in 2022, down from 72% in 2019. 

But in Australia less than 25% of transactions use cash, in the UK it’s just 15% and in Norway, only 3% of payment transactions are cash!

So our currency is basically digital already. So when the RBA announced plans to create a Central Bank Digital Currency our biggest question was… Why? Isn’t the Aussie Dollar pretty digital already?

So we set out to better understand this emerging world of Central Bank Digital Currencies or CBDC’s today.

In this the final episode for the year Trace, Blake & Caroline (CEO of BTC Markets) look at the issues that shaped 2022. There were certainly some big media grabbing stories - Luna, FTX, and the contagion we are still seeing to this day. But not all of them were negative, no! There was also a great deal of positive news and sentiment wrapped up in 2022 but it was overshadowed by the actions of some bad actors. 

They reflect back on these stories and round out the episode by giving their thoughts on 2023.

This is the crew's final episode for 2022 as the little hamsters jump off the wheel for a well earned break. They’ll be back late January with an update on ALL the crypto news!
