As the mists of uncertainty enveloped the crypto market, Ben and I found ourselves navigating the volatile currents of Bitcoin's worth, much like the shifting Portuguese weather patterns that mirror my own life transformation. From considering the potential of a sub-$39k Bitcoin to discussing the foundational principles of financial freedom that cryptocurrency embodies, we explore how these digital assets are more than mere investments—they are a symbol of autonomy in an increasingly centralized world. Our conversation spans from the practical implications for investors to the philosophical underpinnings that make Bitcoin resonate with those seeking sovereignty, including my own journey towards a self-sufficient homestead in Portugal.

In sharing my story of upheaval during the pandemic, the pivot to a lifestyle of independence becomes a testament to the power of personal choice.

Cryptocurrency emerges as a crucial ally in this quest, promising a financial resilience against the silent thief that is inflation, and offering a beacon of hope for a life unburdened by the overreach of governmental control.
As Ben and I contemplate the future, our discussions turn to the complexities of Bitcoin's environmental footprint and the tech wonder that could one day be iPhones recognizing users through their screens. These musings, while at times light-hearted, underscore our commitment to hearty debates and critical examination of the issues that shape our world. Join us as we weave through the rich tapestry of entrepreneurial spirit, the quest for peace in the countryside, and the ceaseless intrigue of the crypto cosmos—all while keeping an eye on the pressing issue of sustainability that we promise to tackle in the sessions to come.

The Future of Gaming on the Blockchain
The GameFi space is a huge, evolving space that’s constantly innovating as time goes on. Traditional game development studios are seeing the huge amount of investment capital in the space and are looking to see how the blockchain could solve some of the problems they face, or, enhance a players experience.
Niantic, the company behind Pokémon Go, starting to explore the blockchain
Earlier this year, Niantic had met the team behind SpotX Games, a Miami-based company that describes itself as “a web3 innovation studio for the real-world metaverse”. Hanke was taken with SpotX’s work and acquired the studio. “The potential for web3 is to move us back — to a more decentralized version of the internet,” Hanke said. “And to recapture some of that spirit and vision that was there when it started.”
Game developer Akatsuki announces $20 million web3 fund
Japanese entertainment and gaming firm Akatsuki said on Wednesday that it has raised a $20 million fund focused on investing in web3 projects. The fund, dubbed Emoote, will look to back startups working on projects in GameFi, non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and the metaverse, Akatsuki said in a press release. The name Emoote was chosen to signal that NFT consumption is based on "emotional values," Akatsuki added.

Jackson Palmer, the Australian co-creator of Dogecoin, recently spoke to Australian news outlet Crikey where he gave his opinion of our new twitter overlord. Jackson described Mr Musk as “a grifter” who “sells a vision in hopes that he can one day deliver what he’s promising, but he doesn’t know that. He’s just really good at pretending he knows.

Big Bulls in a Bear Market
We are in the midst of a bear market that is giving some flashbacks to 2018, yet even though crypto and stocks are down, there seems to be a lot of money flowing from big investors and big companies in the DeFi space.
Why is Big Money Flowing During a Bear Market?
On Tuesday, Coinbase became the first crypto-focused company to be included in Forbes Fortune 500, pulling $7.8 billion in revenue for the 2021 fiscal year. Projects like ZenLedger and Babel Finance are raking in huge capital investment. But it still begs the question: why are we seeing such big crypto companies doing well or getting funding while in the midst of a bear market?
Sam Bankman Fried Says he could Spend up to $1 Billion in Next Presidential Election
Sam Bankman-Fried says he could spend up to $1 billion or more in the 2024 election, which would easily make him the biggest-ever political donor in a single election. Speaking to Jacob Goldstein on his podcast “Whats You Problem?”, Sam said he expects to give “north of $100 million” in the next presidential election and that he has a “soft ceiling” of $1 billion if candidates like Donald Trump were to run.

Do Kwon Cancels Crypto?!?
This week has been utter madness, everyone’s eyes were locked on the car crash catastrophe that was UST.

What was one of the largest stablecoins, TerraUSD (UST), fell from grace after it depegged from its $1 value on Monday and since dropped as much as 70% to $0.2998, when it was never supposed to deviate from the dollar-equivalent value. Recently, the blockchain behind the Luna token stopped processing new transactions for the second time in less than a day.

Blair, Bahamas and Bored Apes
This week has been hectic in the Crypto-sphere! The inaugural Crypto Bahamas is wrapping up, one of the biggest NFT communities was hacked and one of the biggest wall street fraudsters has become a crypto fanatic. Kevin and Ben take a deep dive into this weekly crypto round-up, as well as take a look at an exclusive statement given by the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change in regards to UK’s future in crypto innovation.
Crypto Bahamas and Statement from Tony Blair Institute
This week, the inaugural Crypto Bahamas presented by FTX and SALT has come to a close. This conference has stirred up a lot of conversations, whether that’s arguments about whether Bill Clinton and Tony Blair were suitable candidates for being speakers at the event to praise to the Bahamas for having friendlier regulations. We read an exclusive statement given to Cryptopulse from the Tony Blair Institue for Global Change in regards to UK’s potential to head DeFi innovation.
Revolut CEO eyes expansion into mortgages, crypto wallets
Digital banking platform Revolut is working on expanding into decentralized cryptocurrency wallets and is also looking at the mortgage sector, its CEO said, as the London-based company pushes ahead with its strategy to become a so-called "superapp". Revolut, which currently offers payments services, crypto trading, savings accounts and stock trading, is focused in the short-term on expanding its remittance offerings and launching a buy now, pay later product. But the financial technology company has more work to do to become a one-stop-shop for financial services, said CEO Nik Storonsky.
A hacker swindled about $3 million in NFTs after infiltrating Bored Ape Yacht Club's social media accounts
The Bored Ape Yacht Club's Instagram and Discord accounts were hacked Monday. The attacker seized control of the BAYC Instagram account and sent a phishing post that many followers were fooled into clicking on, connecting their crypto wallets to the hacker’s “smart contract” – a mechanism for implementing a crypto transaction. That enabled the attacker to steal the assets held in the wallets, seizing control of four Bored Apes, as well as a host of other NFTs with an estimated total value of $3m.

Full Statement by Martin Carkett, Policy Lead at the Tony Blair Institute for Global Change:
“While there is significant debate over how to define, restrict or embrace crypto, the Tony Blair Institute believes that governments need to strike the right balance between appropriate regulation to guard against risks while still fostering progress and innovation.
“Crypto and Distributed Ledger Technologies are going to play a defining role in the 21st century and it’s right that the government is aiming to make the UK - which has long- standing strengths in the financial services industry - a global hub for cryptoasset technology and investment.
“Bringing stablecoins within regulation, introducing a financial market infrastructure sandbox and a Financial Conduct Authority-led ‘CryptoSprint’ are all sensible approaches. It is particularly encouraging to see that policy makers will be working more closely with industry through a ministerial led engagement group.
“The UK is well positioned to get out ahead of other major economies in this space, but it needs to double down on its efforts to ensure it takes this opportunity. For example, the UK needs to move more quickly and decisively on a potential Bank of England Central Bank Digital Currency, on fostering innovation in DeFi as well as cryptoassets and on exploring feasibility and potential benefits of using DLT for sovereign debt instruments.”

Can Rishi Make the UK Dishy on Crypto?
A few weeks back, Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak had set out it’s plans to make the UK a global cryptoasset technology hub. But with the current economic climate the country is facing, and with Rishi being involved in financial scandal himself, what is the governments true intention for wanting to head crypto innovation?
UK Stablecoin Regulations
On the 4th of April, the UK government announced plans to regulate stablecoins for use in the country as a recognised form of payment. The UK Treasury said “ The government intends to legislate to bring stablecoins – where used as a means of payment – within the payments regulatory perimeter, creating conditions for stablecoin issuers and service providers to operate and invest in the UK”.
London’s Growing Job Market
London has been confirmed as a world leader in cryptocurrency after a jobs platform revealed the number of global employers currently hunting for staff in the crypto sector. The US, as expected, takes top spot in the amount of crypto vacancies – currently standing at 3,893 – but the UK is catching up fast with the second-highest number of advertised roles.
Robinhoods purchase of Ziglu
Robinhood said Tuesday it has agreed to buy Ziglu, a London-based fintech app that allows users to trade bitcoin and several other cryptocurrencies. The acquisition will help in its expansion plans in the U.K. and Europe, the company said. The announcement comes nearly two years after Robinhood halted plans to launch in the U.K. At the time, the company said it was prioritizing its business at home over international expansion.

Cops vs CryptoWith any innovation, there are both intended and unintended uses. With crypto becoming more mainstream, it’s appeal to criminals becomes more mainstream as well. This begs the question; How do the authorities ACTUALLY liquidate seized digital currencies? Ben and Kevin explore some of the stats behind UK and US crypto seizures, give their opinions on Elon Musk’s offer to buy Twitter, as well as seeing what’s happening this week in the “Weird World of Crypto”.
Crypto Seizures: UK & US statistics and processHow do authorities seize crypto whenever things start to go awry? How much crypto was seized last year? And what’s the difference between the US and UK system? At the start of todays show, we answer all of these questions and more!
Elon Musk Offers to Buy TwitterIt was only a couple of weeks prior that Elon Musk bought a 9.2% stake in Twitter and was offered to sit on the board of directors, but Mr Musk declined, making a lot of people wonder what his true intentions really were. Now, he’s offered to buy 100% of the company outright, saying he is the right person to "unlock" the social media platform's "extraordinary potential".
LGB Coin Lawsuit, Alleged “pump-and-dump” SchemeLast year, the crypto coin LGB entered the market, with the acronym standing for “Lets Go Brandon”. This term is primarily used by Republican supporters in the US as a tongue-and-cheek way of showing there distaste towards President Joe Biden. Now, the LGB coin has gotten itself into some deep water with the company who made the coin being served a class action lawsuit that alleges its creators and several others have misleadingly promoted the cryptocurrency asset in order to artificially inflate its value before selling their portions for personal gain.
Weird World of Crypto: Zuck BucksMeta—the parent company that owns Facebook, WhatsApp and Instagram—is exploring a new digital currency according to a recent report by the Financial Times. The plans come just three years after Meta CEO Mark Zuckerburg tried to launch a cryptocurrency named ‘Libra’, later renamed to ‘Diem’, which subsequently shut down following opposition from policy-makers.

The Humanitarian Need for Bitcoin Crypto has been playing a big part in the war between Russia and Ukraine, not only in helping the Ukrainian government, but the Ukrainian migrants trying to flee the country as well. With money being easier to move across the world than ever before, how will this technology advance to help others truly in need gain financial sovereignty?
Ukrainian refugee flees to Poland with $2,000 in bitcoin on a USB drive Ben and Kevin discuss an amazing article written by MacKenzie Sigalos as she follows a 20 year old Ukranian refugee fleeing from Lviv to Poland and how having a crypto wallet ensured he had a roof over his head and food for him and his family.
ASA continues clampdown on misleading and irresponsible crypto ads in the UK The Advertising Standards Authority in the UK has issued enforcement notices to over 50 crypto based companies for misleading advertisements. The ASA has told these firms to review their ads and make sure they are in compliance with the rules. It also threatened firms with targeted sanctions if “problem ads” persist after May 2nd.
The UK treasury will make payments to Bank of England for the first time to cover losses from the governments quantitative easing plan The U.K. Treasury will make payments to the Bank of England for the first time to cover losses from the institution’s quantitative easing plan, according to the nation’s fiscal watchdog. The forecasts, if realized, would mark a historic moment for the U.K. and may prove politically tricky for the Treasury. It could force the government to either earmark future taxpayer funds away from other projects to compensate the central bank or increase borrowing to cover the cost.

LimeWire, our favourite torrenting software from the naughties is back, but not as you knew it!

Crypto exchanges and firms handling digital assets will now be required to register with the government to operate legally in Ukraine, and banks will be allowed to open accounts for crypto firms.

Will The EU Ban Bitcoin?
We may be coiling up for an aggressive move for bitcoin, but in what direction do we envision it swaying? With crypto bills such as MiCA heading for negotiations, fear has arisen over the potential for the EU to vote on banning bitcoin. We discuss all you need to know about the regulations and price movement, but also reminisce over the worst crypto’s we have ever held, and what we learnt from this!
Bitcoin Price Action
As we continue to gravitate towards the 39K point, both bears and bulls are out in equal force with buyers and sellers becoming evenly matched. Continually we are moving sideways, but in which direction will the big move take place over the next coming days?
The Worst Crypto’s We Have Ever Held!
Back in 2017, Patientory (PTOY) token hit the market. Solving a multi-billion dollar problem in the US, and with an intelligent founder behind it, this seemed like a good idea. However, as soon as Ben bought this token it dropped drastically, within just 8 weeks.
Next up is Bitcoin Private (BTCP), which Kevin still holds today! Picked up on Twitter after some hype, Kevin & Ben attended events and even met Didi Taihuttu here, a previous guest on our podcast.
So, what was learnt from these experiences? Well, something may have a good idea and team behind it, but this doesn’t always mean it will be successful! Once the hype is gone, many projects find it very difficult to level up to that initial engagement they had received again. People generally move on to the next big thing!
EU Vote On The MiCA Bill
The MiCA legislation aims to provide a regulatory framework for digital assets for member states in the EU by 2025. On Monday, the European Parliament voted not to ban proof-of-work-based digital currencies. Proof of work is a decentralized consensus that requires members of a network to solve a complex mathematical puzzle. This means that networks are secure and reliable, and the power is very decentralized and difficult to hack: One of the main reasons why the EU is focusing on it as an issue.
Bitcoin’s Energy Output
With the media using Bitcoin’s energy consumption as the hot topic across many outlets, what are our thoughts on weighing up the benefits and solutions available?
Not having bitcoin at all may be a greater disaster. It has been essential for people frozen outside of economics; with examples including Ukraine, Canada, and countries where fiat currencies are devalued: For many, bitcoin is a safe haven.
“ The utility of the exchanges made possible by bitcoin will far exceed the cost of electricity used. Therefore, not having bitcoin would be a net waste.” - Satoshi Nakamoto
What we cover in this episode
- Bitcoin price action
- The worst crypto’s we have ever held!
- The EU MiCA Bill
- Bitcoin’s energy output

Why Is War Pumping Wheat? With the crypto market being spooked from the situation taking place between Ukraine and Russia, we are seeing a bit of a waiting game across the space. Bitcoin has been down nearly 40% from its highs last year, and one of the biggest winners recently has been gold!
Why Gold Is Rallying
Is Bitcoin behaving more like a risk asset? Gold has rallied throughout this tricky macro backdrop; suggesting that investors are still looking at gold as the safe haven during these uncertain times. We discuss whether Bitcoin will have its day again with some monumental runs, or whether the golden years are over?
Joe Biden’s Executive Order
In other major news this week, Joe Biden’s executive order is on the way. The Whitehouse is looking to move some of the regulatory bodies quickly on the regulation of crypto and digital assets. Everything from Bitcoin to Ethereum, and all other tokens will be impacted by this order, which may push people to dump ahead of the freeze.
The Russia & Ukraine War
With sanctions being placed on Russia and the potential banning of buying Russian oil taking its toll, the market has been spooked by the rise in prices. The sanctions that have been put forward so far have been serious, but at what point do Russia stop providing the energy that the west needs, and how will this impact crypto?
Ukraine has also seen some huge crypto donations to help during these uncertain times, with millions to fund anything from military supplies to food packages. The great benefit linked to crypto has included the speed of these transactions, being done directly and almost instantly.
The Threat Of China & Taiwan
Added to that, we have the potential war between China and Taiwan. This is thought to negatively impact microchip output globally. With many companies relying heavily on the production of these products, it could be a bad couple of years for large tech businesses, with stock prices reflecting that.
What we cover in this episode
- Why gold is rallying
- Bitcoins price action
- Russia & Ukraine's impact on crypto
- Joe Biden’s executive order
- The threat from China & Taiwan

Crucial Market Update
In this week's episode, we bring you an important market update as Russia’s war fears cause more uncertainty in both the crypto market and other financial markets. Both Bitcoin and the SMP 500 are down this week which could take a while to recover whilst the events in Russia and Ukraine unfold. One positive is that all the indicators suggest Bitcoin is oversold and due a large bounce in the future, although it’s impossible to ignore the macro factors that are causing traders to panic sell.
The Bizzare Bitfinex Hack
We also discuss this week's major news story where the culprits of the famous 2016 Bitfinex hack have finally been caught. A seemingly normal couple, who now have $4.5 billion worth of Bitcoin from the hack have been arrested after police found the private keys to the lost Bitcoin. The couple included Heather Morgan, a consultant and TikTok rapper and Ilya Lichtenstein who seemed to be living normal lives although it’s safe to say the arrest proved to ve very strange after police found a hallowed out book with a USB stick labelled ‘private keys’ in their house… We talk more about this during the episode and why it is an important reminder to manage your own security.
What we cover in this episode
- The effect Russia is having on crypto
- Current market update
- The importance of risk management

Is Crypto the Big Winner at This Year's Super Bowl?
Coinbase, FTX and Crypto.com were among the companies that shelled out $6.5 million dollars per 30 seconds of ad time at the recent Super Bowl. It is certainly the hot topic in the crypto space at the moment with some ads performing better than others. We discuss what this means for the crypto industry along with what the ads included and Coinbase’s inexcusable crash.
Are Russia and Ukraine Impacting the Crypto Market?
The ongoing tensions between Russia and Ukraine have hit a breaking point in recent weeks, but is this having an effect on the crypto market? We answer this question during the episode and outline why the hugely worrying nature of the tension could be causing a sell-off and for people to lose confidence in risk assets.
Is It Still a Good Time To Buy?
Despite political tensions causing some panic in the markets, the indicators are still indicating Bitcoin is oversold suggesting now is still a fairly good time to buy. Bitcoin is currently sitting at a $44k resistance and if it can breakthrough we could see some more moves to the upside in the near future. Another potential reason the market is in a strong position is Canadians looking to invest in decentralised assets to stop the risks of the government suspending people's bank accounts if they protest against the vaccine mandate.
What we cover in this episode
- Crypto Super Bowl ads
- The unforgivable Coinbase crash
- The impact Russia and Ukraine are having on the Crypto market
- Is it a good time to buy or sell?
- The Canadian government’s announcement they will seize protesters funds
- Are Canadians now more likely to invest in decentralised assets?

Market Update - Calm Before The Storm?
It’s been a quiet week for Bitcoin, with little price action movement since the slight recovery after last week's big dump. We discuss whether this is a good sign and why selling pressure easing off could result in a price increase in the near future.
Is Russia Banning Bitcoin?
It’s been a confusing week regarding Russia’s stance on Bitcoin, with the Central Bank of Russia proposing to completely ban crypto mining and trading only for this to later be rejected in favour of more regulations. We tell you everything you need to know about this topic and why it’s important for the crypto industry.
Will We Have to Pay More Taxes On Crypto?
In what could be a significant announcement in Bitcoin’s history, president Biden announced that new rules and regulations for Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are coming soon. One of these is to raise tax on crypto, claiming to be due to their high-risk nature and the fact that there is an argument cryptocurrencies are bad for the environment. We argue the case that they are not as bad as the environment as the news suggests in episode 7 of the podcast which you can listen to HERE.
What we cover in this episode
- Market update after a quiet week for Bitcoin’s price action
- Where the market could be headed next
- Are Russia banning Bitcoin or not?
- President Biden’s announcement that more crypto regulations are coming
- Is the tax on cryptocurrencies going to increase?
- Should governments be able to regulate crypto?

Update On The Latest Crypto Dump
It’s safe to say it has not been a good few days in the crypto space, with Bitcoin falling more to reach the lowest level in months. This is mainly due to worrying recent announcements about interest rates and inflation that are causing people to sell their risk assets. In this episode, we discuss what caused the latest Bitcoin dump and why all is not lost, with a potential relief rally expected in the near future.
We also chat about why it’s important to look at the macro elements of the financial market and why the S&P 500 and NASDAQ can be helpful to identify the state of the market.
Understanding Charts
We have got a lot of questions recently about how to get into chart reading and analysis so we thought we’d dive into how we look at charts and discuss TradingView, a brilliant trading platform that allows you to build watch lists and see price action in real-time. You can create a free account using this link https://www.tradingview.com/
Are NFTs Here to Stay?
Lastly, we discuss what NFTs we are a fan of including Wow Pixies, a women led project with the vision “to lift up and help bring Women led projects to the forefront”. We also make a case for why we think NFTs are here to stay and have a major advantage of not facing issues like financial regulations that cryptocurrencies face.

This interview contains some amazing chart analysis on video, so if you are able to watch on video we highly recommend heading to our YouTube channel using this link
Are we Headed for a Move to The Upside?
Crypto Caeser puts his case forward for why he believes we are more likely to be headed to the upside rather than the downside. This includes macro analysis of Bitcoin, on-chain, fear to greed index and dormancy flow. Despite the analysis looking promising, we also discuss the importance of implementing a risk management strategy, only investing what you can afford to lose and having patience when investing.
Is it Time to Buy or Sell?
There are some strong indicators that are suggesting it is a great time to buy, the market is in extreme fear, the on-chain hash rate has been hitting new all-time highs and the dormancy flow level is suggesting the market is about to or has bottomed out. This all indicates now could be a good time to buy but as always, we recommend dollar-cost averaging in and making sure you manage your own risk tolerance.

- Where is the crypto market headed next?

Own a Piece of Crypto Island! With Dan Bouwer
Crypto Island
Crypto Island is a community based project with the goal of buying an island with crypto and tokenising it so anyone can co-own a real private island in the Bahamas. They are using a DAO to fund and govern the island so all the decisions and events can be decided by the community rather than a business hierarchy. This innovative idea means that the Island will be largely decentralised which gives the community full transparency and as much power and involvement in decision making as possible.
How You Can Get Involved
The DAO is now officially live and Crypto Island are holding a crypto crowdfunding campaign for 100 days. Once the 100 days are up that’s it so if you want to get involved don’t hesitate or you will miss out! People can use Etherium to contribute to the DAO and the more you buy the more voting power and benefits you get. For evey 1 Etherium you contribute you get 1 million palm tree tokens, which act as voting power and you will also get an NFT depending on how much you buy. You can get involved in the project via the link https://dao.cryptoisland.com/
What The Future Has in Store for Crypto Island
There is no doubt this is a very exciting project and it’s likely there will be a huge demand of people wanting to get involved, but what is the overall mission?

Market Update - Is a Bounce On Its Way?
The market has been moving sideways for some time now and the fear to greed indicator has been constantly at the extreme fear level for weeks. But is the next move for Bitcoin likely to be down below $40k or are we due a relief rally in the coming months? We reveal what we believe could be on the horizon for Bitcoin and why the indicators are pointing towards a bounce in the near future.
Bitcoin Developers Legal Trouble
One thing featuring in the news currently is constant legal cases being raised against Bitcoin developers, despite not always being clear why. The lawsuits have been growing in number in recent months although Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey has created a fund to be used to help Bitcoin developers get legal aid if legal cases are filed against them.
DAOs
DAOs are decentralized autonomous organizations that aren’t governed by a hierarchy and instead, the rules of each DAO are coded on the blockchain allowing for complete transparency with the way they are run. In this episode, we talk you through this latest crypto trend and discuss Spice Dao, who paid nearly $3million for the novel Dune believing they had bought the rights to all the book’s content. They were eventually told all they had bought was a 1st edition copy of the book and not the rights which has dominated the crypto news over the last couple of days.
What we cover in this episode
- Market update and what’s next for Bitcoin?
- Is a Bitcoin bounce on the horizon?
- Why Bitcoin developers are being hit with legal cases
- Jack Dorsey’s fund to help the developers

- Spice DAOs unfortunate incident

The Shocking Truth About Why Crypto Markets Are Crashing
Is It Time To Buy or Sell Crypto?
It’s safe to say the start of 2022 has not gone to plan for the crypto market. The current fear to greed index has even moved to the level of extreme fear, although is this an opportunity to buy at great prices rather than to sell? We answer this question in our latest episode and explain why we believe the market may have bottomed out and why we are choosing to capitalise on the market conditions and add to our portfolio rather than sell like many are doing.
What Does the Rise in Inflation Mean for Crypto?
The upcoming release of the inflation figures in America and expectation it will be the highest number in many years has been a big talking point recently. Many people see Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies as a hedge against inflation but will this affect the market in the near future? Unfortunately, the answer is probably and this is something that’s important to be aware of. This is due to Bitcoin still being a risk asset, with many investors withdrawing money from these assets due to uncertainty caused by the rising inflation. We clear all of this up during the episode and what the market could look like over the next few months,
What we cover in this episode
- The upcoming inflation data release in America
