Hard Fork

Apple’s Face Computer + Crypto Chaos + How Teens Really Feel About Social Media


Listen Later

Apple kicked off the week with the announcement of a mixed-reality headset: the Apple Vision Pro. Putting a computer on your face may seem weird AF, but if there’s one company that knows how to make nerdy stuff into the thing that everyone wants, it’s Apple. Will these fancy goggles be the next Apple revolution?

Then, crypto had (another) terrible week after the S.E.C. filed lawsuits against the cryptocurrency exchanges Coinbase and Binance.

Plus: Our teenage listeners on how they feel about social media.

This week:

  • David Yaffe-Bellany, a cryptocurrency and financial technology reporter for The New York Times.

Additional Reading:

  • Why Kevin won’t bet against Apple’s Vision Pro and why Casey thinks Apple has an edge on Meta’s Metaverse.
  • The S.E.C. accused Coinbase of illegally allowing users to trade unregistered securities a day after it sued the international crypto exchange Binance.
  • This Teenage Life (TTL) is a podcast about teenagers being teenagers.
