.

The hosts also talked about the current state of the cryptocurrency market, with traditional markets being closed for Presidents day and weak close on Friday. They discussed the strength of BTC and ETH, with many alt coins up north of 10%. The breakdown in correlation between crypto and traditional markets was also highlighted.

The SEC's recent action against Paxos, the creator of BSDC stablecoin, was discussed, which could have implications for stablecoins being classified as securities. This could have a massive effect on the DeFi system. The hosts also talked about the huge volumes going through different NFT projects, with old projects coming to the forefront and low-risk airdrop farming being the cause. The current state of the crypto market and the fact that the number of traders is not increasing is not great

The hosts also talked about the invite-only beta for @gemxyz and the rumors around the aggregator. They also discussed the recent 250 ETH sale of XCOPY, who vaulted a few pieces for himself. Finally, they congratulated Rug Radio on hitting 100k followers on Twitter and encouraged listeners to check out Rug Radio Official on Instagram.

Friday, February 17th! There were a ton of updates in the market and NFT space. One of the biggest volume days in NFTs in a while happened yesterday, with a $90 million day, the highest in the past 9 months. Low-quality high-volume trades are happening, and people are still farming. Blur did $63 million versus OpenSea doing $15 million, with whale accounts farming Blur rewards being the cause. @veefriends had an event/announcement involving a burn mechanic with 'burn island', and @PUMA is dropping a PFP collection. BendDAO token is pumping, with the amount being borrowed on the platform likely being directly related to the price of the token.

In other news, the new platform @escherxyz, focused on being a marketplace for editions and focused artist portfolios, is going live soon. Ordinals are up to over 123,000 inscriptions that have happened on the Bitcoin chain, and during the podcast, Farokh announces that there will be a huge event with him and @udiWertheimer involving the Taproot wizards and Rug Radio.

@rodarmor announced during the GM Web3 show that low-number inscribers will not be rugged and the numbers will remain the same, making blockchain history. @XCOPYART dropped two new 1/1 pieces and a third one during the show, while Rug Radio will be doing an event in collaboration with @yugalabs and @Improbableio at NFT Paris.

Today we discussed the performance of the traditional and cryptocurrency markets, with BTC nearing $25k and ETH touching $1700. They mention that alts are doing well and the tech analysis suggests that there is still room for growth. They also talk about the decrease in leverage in crypto and how this could lead to a healthier market.

We went through the NFT market and the high trading volume of Otherdeeds, Sewer passes, and Moonbirds. The Blur airdrop will sustain the effect and provide double rewards through March, but there may be more low-quality trading as a result. we then delved into Blur's new royalty structure, which could lead to the blocking of Opensea or denying the volume of Blur, putting the founders in a tough position.

The hosts share that GQ Magazine has partnered with Moonpay and artists to launch a new collection, "change is good," providing special access to events and physical items. They also talk about the upcoming NFT Paris event, where Pudgy Penguins and Rektguy will have events, and Rug Radio and Farokh will be present.

The hosts then briefly mention The Plague NFT's charity initiative on Polygon, which innovatively used frogs and announced that the Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta is set to go live on March 27, which is a significant development for scalability. The episode concludes with a summary of events that were discussed, providing a wealth of knowledge for cryptocurrency and NFT enthusiasts.

Today is Valentines day, but unfortunately for most degens in the space it is mores Airdrop day with the Blur marketplace set to release their $BLUR into participants wallets during the time of this being written. The stage had a ton of speculation about where the liquid from the airdrop will end up and how much it will actually be worth. Most are hopeful that it will be a successful boost to the NFT economy.

Macro wise we have the CPI coming tomorrow which could lead to a swing after the last payrolls number. NFT news was dominated by the superbowl ad for digidaigaku, with some fud and some hopeful, only time will tell how that plays out.

If you have been anywhere near the crypto and NFT worlds, you have heard of ordinals. Now understanding and or getting involved may be another question that many still cannot answer. Today's guest is the creator of Ordinals, Casey Roadrmor. Originally a Bitcoin developer, he gave us a walk through his professional life and led us into the world of ordinals. There were even a couple easter eggs and things to look forward to with the new tech and the assets that are stored using it. A great episode for both the ordinal curious and the student of the space.

This episode was graced with Herman Narula, CEO to improbable io. He offered his giga-brain views on the Metaverse which were actually contrary to a lot of the common views people have about the Metaverse, especially in regards to mass adoption and P2E. His efforts in bringing the Metaverse to the millions were broken down in a way that inspires hope for anybody involved in the tech and the pursuit of adoption. This is one of the best guests we have had on in regards to explaining their perspective and the path they intend to take to achieve their goals.

We also had Cryptex on to share their new index token called $JPEGz, a token that takes 10 of the top collection and allow very low cost entry points. The tech runs on Arbitrum and there is already an existing crypto index known as $TCAP. Listen back for the details.
