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 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.
