The government’s big shift in tone on crypto might be to no avail.

This episode is sponsored by Nexo.io, Chainalysis and FTX US.  

After years of what many would consider hostility to the industry, the British government did a major about-face in April when Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak announced the country’s intention to make the U.K. a global crypto hub.

The editorial board argues that the bitcoin spot ETF denial amounts to a power grab. 

This episode is sponsored by Nexo.io, Chainalysis and FTX US. 

The crypto industry hasn’t been particularly pleased with the SEC under Gary Gensler. In particular, the continued rejections of bitcoin spot ETFs (even after a futures ETF was approved last year) have been particularly irksome – even leading to legal action. In this episode, NLW breaks down a recent editorial in the Wall Street Journal showing that it’s not just the crypto industry that is upset.
