Crypto Curious

In the latest episode of Crypto Curious, your hosts Tracey, Blake, and Craig discuss all crypto-related news from the past month. After two weeks of solid increases in late March, the cryptocurrency market experienced a ‘dead cat bounce’ in early April and dropped by around 10%, losing all previous gains. The economy lacks stimulus and inflation combined with the ongoing war in Ukraine has spooked the market, but crypto could still stand out as a hedge in times of crisis. Since the U.S. inflation rate of 8.5% was announced recently, Bitcoin has enjoyed a mild 3% recovery. Listen to the full episode for more news about Goldman Sachs’ new OTC desk, 19 million Bitcoin mined, and Australia’s Blockchain Week.

In this episode, Craig and Blake take the helm while Tracy enjoys a well-deserved break. The boys discuss all the jargon that litters the crypto landscape, from FUD and HODL to PoW and PoS.  Kicking off, Craig describes how HODL (hold on for dear life) came into being after a slightly drunk investor spelt 'hold' incorrectly on a chatroom. He and Blake go through explanations of more crypto jargon like mining, dumping, forking, proof-of-work (PoW), proof of stake (PoS), hot wallets, cold wallets, whales, and more.

In the second episode of our three-part series on NFTs, your hosts Trace and Craig discuss the exciting world of Play-to-Earn NFT games. Many people think of NFTs as just collectible JPEG images of apes and punks, but they actually have many other real-life use cases. Play-to-earn gaming is one way for NFT enthusiasts to make money with their NFTs in the metaverse. There are several different ways to do this, including selling items, selling characters, competing in tournaments, and building up characters for other players.

In this episode of Crypto Curious your hosts Tracey, Blake, and Craig discuss self-managed superannuation funds (SMSFs) with special guest John Collignon of C2 Super. They talk about how superannuation funds in Australia have changed over the years and the various schemes that are available today. John explains the different types of super funds that Australians have access to, including Approved Deposit Funds (ADF), Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) funds, and Australian Taxation Office (ATO) funds.

In today's episode of Crypto Curious, your hosts Tracey, Blake, and Craig kick off the first in a series of three NFT-related discussions. NFTs have been around since 2014 but only gained serious prominence in the past few years. The widespread popularity of NFT collections like Crypto Punks and Bored Ape Yacht Club have fuelled the growth, with multi-million dollar sales of works like Beeple's "The First 5000 Days" catapulting NFTs into the mainstream.

Senator Bragg oversaw the Australian Crypto Report that was published in October last year, which included 12 recommendations to tackle key issues in the crypto sector. As a result, he was listed in Cointelegraph's top 100 most influential list of 2022 at position 82 globally. He first got into cryptocurrency when he was asked to chair an inquiry into the fintech industry in Australia. In the process, he came to the conclusion that they needed to do a bigger body of work focused solely on cryptocurrency alone. Here he talks to Tracey and Blake about what he thinks Australia should to do establish itself as a cryptocurrency world-leader.

This is the first of our 'What Crypto Did' episodes, where we talk about the latest news stories that have been filling your feeds over the past few weeks. We kick off with the biggest story that has been dominating the news lately, the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Cryptocurrency has been catapulted into the spotlight as a result of the invasion, with the humanitarian aid fund Relief receiving over $50 million worth of donations in cryptocurrency. Then Tracey brings the bizarre story of the alleged Bitfinex hackers, an unknown writer and rapper Heather Morgan (AKA Razzle Khan) and her husband Elya Lichtenstein. We go over the crypto ads that aired during the superbowl and Tracey discusses Twitter's integration of Ethereum for tipping fellow users on the platform.

In this episode of Crypto Curious, your hosts Tracey, Craig and Blake take the time to answer a few of the many interesting questions they've been receiving from listeners. They tackle one of the most commonly asked questions: “What is the biggest threat to Bitcoin and crypto in general?” They also answer questions about the flippening, a hypothetical event where Ethereum takes over Bitcoin's as number one by market cap, and discuss the various methods of staking, from wallets like Exodus to third-party staking services that provide Ethereum pools. Naturally, no Q&A would be complete without crypto's biggest mystery: Who is Satoshi? Carry on listening to hear their thoughts on answers to other questions, including how Discord has taken over from Telegram, what happens if you lose your Ledger wallet, and which virtual lands exist.

Australia is no stranger to cryptocurrency, with a recent Coinspot survey revealing 97% of Australians know about crypto and 1 in 5 Australians have interacted with it in some way. Young people, in particular, are adopting crypto at a rate of 10% per year, and almost half of Australians expect to own crypto in 5 years.

In this episode, your Crypto Curious hosts Tracey, Blake, and Craig discuss working in the Australian crypto and blockchain industry. Australia is one of the most forward-thinking countries in the crypto sector, with favourable government legislation and several high-profile startups already making their mark globally. Leading the charge are Aussie crypto startups like Power Ledger, RS Energy, DeHedge, and Immutable X - the fastest growing crypto startup in Australia.
