They Said Bitcoin is Gonna WHAT? How to Stay Sane in a BTC World #140 Mar 26, 2021

Show notes

Bitcoin is like Marmite. Some countries love it, some countries hate it. And the Marmite effect does not just apply to countries! It applies to people as well who perhaps are likening the world of crypto with some very unflattering parallels, such as the subprime mortgage bubbles which led to massive global recession, and ponzi schemes.

How should you navigate through this world of Marmite opinions? Very carefully, remembering to only invest with what you can afford to lose, but of course, making very informed and well researched decisions. After all, life is is a risk, but you want to make careful choices. Join the host of Crypto and Blockchain Talk, Aviva Ounap, and Ben Jessel of Forbes.com as they look at some of the opinions being formed out there and wonder, how does one stay sane in a BTC world?

In addition, all interviews are streamed on Crypto24Radio.com, bringing you the latest news on all things blockchain and crypto-related all day, every day - plus music!

Blockchain on a Grand SKALE Jack O'Holleran from Skale Labs gives us the latest #139 Mar 24, 2021

Show notes

The SKALE Network was created to improve the user experience of decentralized applications, or dApps, while significantly increasing speeds, lowering costs, and creating seamless workflows for end users and developers.

As the blockchain world knows, Ethereum is slow to verify and authorize transactions, but not for users of the SKALE Network - as it greatly improves the speed at which Ethereum verifies transactions. SKALE operates at much faster speeds and can run up to 2,000 transactions per second, per chain.

Join Aviva Ounap, host of Crypto and Blockchain Talk as she talks to Jack O'Holleran, CEO of SKALE Labs as they talk about the dApps enjoying SKALEs elastic sidechains, use cases for their blockchain, and how SKALE is a perfect fit for Web 3.0’s decentralized protocol.

hCaptcha, at the forefront of user privacy! Alex Newman of Human Protocol explains #138 Mar 20, 2021

Show notes

CAPTCHA is short for 'Completely Automated Public Turing Test', which is the test that you see on many websites which allows those very websites to tell computers and humans apart. More importantly, CAPTCHA solutions keep the bots out and add a layer of protection for sensitive data - as bots can steal data, break into user accounts, submit junk data through online forms, and perform many other malicious activities.

Did you know that it takes the average person about 10 seconds to solve a typical CAPTCHA!

Today we are talking about hCaptcha, the brainchild of Alex Newman, which has grown into the largest independent cybersecurity service in the world, running on about 15% of the internet, and they took most of this market share directly from Google reCAPTCHA. What is even more interesting is that hCaptcha is powered by the HUMAN Protocol, which is an open decentralized protocol that runs on the Ethereum blockchain.

hCaptcha solutions are excellent because they don't sell personal data, collect only minimum necessary personal data, are transparent in describing the info they collect and how they use and/or disclose it – and most importantly, as stated above - deter bots and spammers while preserving users' privacy.

Join Aviva Ounap, the host of Crypto and Blockchain Talk, as she talks to Alex about hCAPTCHA and how they are increasing market share, what is happening with their protocol, and how their blockchain and oracles are shaping up to serve the users of their magnificent platform.

In addition, all interviews are streamed on Crypto24Radio.com, bringing you the latest news on all things blockchain and crypto-related all day, every day - plus music!

So stay tuned and enjoy.

Is Musk Going To Pi** off the SEC Again? #135 Feb 27, 2021

Show notes

Well, we recorded this podcast before this news came out – but we saw this one coming…Tesla’s CEO Elon Musk is reportedly under SEC scrutiny over some alleged cryptocurrency manipulation and it is not over Bitcoin – it is over Dogecoin.

Musk and the SEC have more of a hate-hate relationship than a love-hate relationship, and of course, the SEC has gone after him before. During his attempt to take Tesla private in 2018 he tweeted out “funding secured” which led the SEC to file a lawsuit against him as they felt he was exaggerating, and they fined him, and Tesla, $20M USD each (Musk bought $20M in shares from Tesla to cover their part of the fine and has since made that money backhand over fist). Also, as part of that settlement, Musk had to step down from being the Chairman of the Board.

Recently, with Musk a key evangelist for bitcoin, Tesla bought $1.5B in bitcoin – and his love for crypto does not stop there. Musk has been shilling for Dogecoin, the famous ‘joke’ coin with a dog as its mascot. But will the ‘joke’ be on Musk? As an influencer in today’s society, this means that people will follow where he leads. So, when he tweets his love for bitcoin, it apparently translates to “buy bitcoin” for all the sheep out there. So, what happens when Musk writes “bitcoin is almost as bs as regular money”? Well, it makes the SEC sad, as it starts to apparently look like market manipulation. But is the SEC right to be mad? Join Aviva Ounap, host of Crypto and Blockchain Talk, and Jonathan Dunsmoor from Dunsmoor Law as they have a quick chat about Musk, Bitcoin, and Doge and ask – what will happen?

In addition, all interviews are streamed on Crypto24Radio.com, bringing you the latest news on all things blockchain and crypto-related all day, every day - plus music!

So stay tuned and enjoy.

Will Other Corporations Follow Tesla and Invest Billions into Bitcoin? #134 Feb 17, 2021

Show notes

Following Overstock and MicroStrategy, Tesla made the move into crypto with a $1.5 billion investment in bitcoin and signaled that they were keen to invest in other digital assets, prompting a bull run of bitcoin. Although, as we have shown, Tesla is not the first in this space, it is a global brand that many companies and investors alike watch with interest, and even replicate their moves. But will other corporate treasuries copy Tesla's latest move? Yes, Tesla is the first Fortune 500 company to diversify cash holdings into cryptocurrency, but is this really a good move?

Join the host of Crypto and Blockchain Talk, Aviva Õunap, as she talks to trader extraordinaire Rob Levy, and they explore, did Tesla make a good move, or did Elon Musk make the biggest mistake of his life?

In addition, all interviews are streamed on Crypto24Radio.com, bringing you the latest news on all things blockchain and crypto-related all day, every day - plus music!

So stay tuned and enjoy.
