After Bitconnect: A Visit with Carlos Matos

During the bull run of 2017-2018, one voice stood out among the crowd. He became a cheerleader for the crypto revolution unlike any other. And while the project he was associated with turned out to be a scam, his voice still resonates today in the annals of blockchain history.

That’s the voice of Carlos Matos, and he became synonymous with Bitconnect. Fast forward a few years and you may wonder what Carlos is up to now. We wondered, and so we invited him to this podcast to fill us in. Warning: you may think you are entering this podcast for shiites and giggles. But while there are a few of those, we believe you are going to come out the other side greatly inspired. Kinda like corn.. Only not.

It’s time to get hyped with Carlos Matos for this episode #537 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.

Regulating Crypto Exchanges with Kevin Murcko of CoinMetro Aug 02, 2021

Show notes

Regulating Crypto Exchanges with Kevin Murcko of CoinMetro

We’ve had hundreds of guests on this show since we started over four years ago. And to be candid, a couple of them have sucked. Well we’ve got some good news and some bad news. The good news is today’s guest doesn’t suck. In fact, he’s really good. Kevin Murcko, the founder of CoinMetro, doesn’t just talk the talk, he actually walks the walk, frequently advising regulators and government bodies on matters relating to applying current regulations to new financial markets and instruments, regulatory sandboxes, and related topics.

The bad news? Well, that would be us. We’re the podcasters your mama warned you about. No one can say you weren’t told in advance. With full knowledge of what you are about to get into, welcome to episode #536 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.

Bad Crypto Podcast Fourth Anniversary Show

Did you feel it? It happened, whether you felt it or not. It wasn’t exactly a seismic event. It was more like a bowel movement. On July 18th we celebrated the 4th anniversary of this show.

Over the past four years, we’ve seen crypto go up and crypto go down. We’ve had the opportunity to interview some of the greatest minds in the blockchain and crypto world. And we’ve been blessed to see the Republic of Bad Cryptopia grow to be a vibrant, active community.

In episode 534, we take a walk down memory lane, remember some of the great guests (not so great guests) we’ve had on the show, and read some listener feedback.

You’re part of our family and we wouldn’t have the success we’ve had without you, so consider this a tribute to you! Welcome to our 4th anniversary episode #534 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.

The Blockchain Developer Toolbox with Michael Godsey

In the beginning, Blockchain developers didn’t really have tools to build out applications. They had code and computers, and they figured it out. As we’re now into the second decade of blockchain, we’re starting to see tools created to assist developers on their journey. Today we are pleased to welcome Michael Godsey of Infura to the show. They’ve developed a suite of tools that devs from a decade ago wish they had had. Don’t be a tool, but discover some awesome tools today on episode #533 of the Bad Crypto Podcast.

Mining Bitcoin More Profitable Than Selling Electricity - Bad News For Wednesday, July 14th

We could share stories about why the price of Bitcoin is down. We could share stories about why the price of Bitcoin should be going up. And there are plenty of people speculating about the ups and downs of crypto. But since the market is mostly sideways right now, we’ve got news surrounding ransomware, the SEC, regulations and the upside of China cracking down on crypto mining. And in case you feel like you are getting into crypto early, wait until you hear about the 13-year old DeFi tycoon.

It’s an amazing time to be alive. Only made more amazing by the fact that at any second of the day, somewhere around the world, someone is listening to this bad news episode #532 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.

Remembering John McAfee Jul 12, 2021

Show notes

Remembering John McAfee

The older you get the more you realize that life is indeed short. While the meme featuring Dwight Shrute says “false, it’s the longest thing you do”, it’s true that our time on this planet is brief, especially in relation to the history of the universe. A couple of weeks ago we all heard the news that John McAfee, an icon in the tech and blockchain space, and a colorful character who marched to the beat of his own drummer, had died.

Over the past four years, John became a friend of this show and graced us with his time, his thoughts, and his laughter, five different times. In this episode we take a walk down memory lane and reflect on some of the content John shared with us, punctuated by our thoughts on the same.

With a loving nod to his widow Janice McAfee, we welcome you to this John McAfee tribute episode #521 of The Bad Crypto Crypto podcast.
