Dear Bankless Nation,
BitMex founders arrested. Kik lost their settlement. Is the final boss rearing it’s head again? All of that happened this week…felt like the $150M KuCoin hack was a year ago.
Some called it a rough week for crypto. And yet…BTC & ETH are only down by -1%. Interpret that as you will. We’ll be getting Jake Chervinsky’s opinion on the regulator’s actions next week on State of the Nation.
You can’t stop a revolution.
A revolution that enables the emergence of new asset classes—like social tokens. Cooper made his bull case for social tokens but what do you think?
And here’s what’s on the docket for next week:
- The story of Moloch continues with an epic Moloch Slayers podcast Monday
- And RAC is joining us to talk about his new community token on YouTube
- We’ll also teach you how to mint tBTC—trustless Bitcoin on Ethereum!
Never a dull moment.
- RSA
