On this week's CoinMarketRecap, we've got an easy-to-understand look at the crypto headlines you need to know.

There's a 98-year-old billionaire who has described Bitcoin as a "venereal disease," with the world's biggest cryptocurrency falling in response to the Ukraine crisis.

Netflix has ordered a documentary into the Bitfinex saga, as Heather Morgan is granted bail ahead of a trial on suspicion of crypto laundering… but her husband isn't.

Molly Jane Zuckerman joins us to discuss which crypto exchange had the best ad at the Super Bowl — and Canada's attempts to clamp down on crypto wallets linked to the Freedom Convoy movement. Plus, is the U.S. meddling in El Salvador's affairs? 

We're also joined by Gamcare's Raminta Diliso to discuss the warning signs that your crypto trading habits could be harmful… and whether exchanges should be doing more to protect their users.

On this week's CoinMarketRecap, Bitcoin worth $3.6 billion has been recovered in the U.S. — and it's linked to the Bitfinex hack that happened all the way back in 2016.

The case has attracted the attention of traditional media outlets thanks to the colorful life of Heather Morgan. The 31-year-old, who is accused of laundering the stolen crypto, was also a Forbes contributor and a (pretty bad) amateur rapper. Molly Jane Zuckerman joins Connor to discuss this week's developments… and why it might actually be bullish for BTC.

Connor and Molly Jane also discuss the firestorm surrounding Brantly Millegan. The Ethereum Name Service executive has lost his job after tweets he had written back in 2016 emerged. Even his own colleagues had described his remarks about homosexuality and abortion as unacceptable — and many ENS users were outraged. Can the crypto industry move beyond being overwhelmingly white and male — and does the sector have a toxicity problem that simply cannot be fixed?

We've also got more headlines than you can shake a stick at. Is Apple finally going to accept crypto payments? Are new Bitcoin investors still underwater after the world's biggest cryptocurrency surged to $45,000? Is Russia still planning to ban crypto? Why did the BBC cancel a documentary about a self-made crypto millionaire? And *how many* exchanges are planning to advertise at the Super Bowl? We'll tell you everything — including why SHIBA INU's price has surged over recent days.

On this week's CoinMarketRecap with Connor Sephton, we've got an update on all the latest market movements with Bitcoin — which suddenly raced above $40,000 on Friday as a close correlation with the stock market continues.

CoinMarketCap's Molly Jane Zuckerman also joins us to discuss a terrible week for Meta. Not only did the tech giant's market valuation suffer the biggest one-day fall in stock market history, but the intellectual property underpinning its Diem digital currency has officially been sold off. And to make matters worse, Mark Zuckerberg's metaverse vision racked up a net loss of $10 billion in 2021.

We also discuss why there's so much visceral hatred for NFTs. Kanye West has declared that he has no interest in creating digital assets, and the video game publisher Team17 has been forced to abandon its plans to launch a Worms-inspired collection after pressure from critics.

And as India announces that it will tax crypto profits at 30%, is the threat of an outright ban on Bitcoin over? Nischal Shetty is the founder of WazirX — India's biggest crypto exchange — joins us to explain why this is a good thing, and why he's excited about the government's plan to launch a digital rupee by 2023.

In this week's CoinMarketRecap podcast with Connor Sephton, we take a look at what's in store for the crypto markets over the next 12 months.

Historically, Bitcoin has operated in four-year cycles: 2013, 2017 and 2021 all delivered exceptional gains, while 2014 and 2018 suffered crypto winters. Is 2022 going to follow this pattern… or are bull cycles beginning to lengthen? CoinMarketCap's Molly Jane Zuckerman gives us her perspective.

Bloomberg Intelligence's senior commodity strategist Mike McGlone also explains why he believes it's "a question of time" before Bitcoin hits $100,000 — and whether the crypto markets will suffer an impact as the Federal Reserve turns off the money taps. 

Plus, he tells us why so-called "Ethereum killers" such as Cardano and Solana may be at a disadvantage in 2022.
