  • Let's Talk About ETH ETF, AI Accountability, And Electric Bikes | Episode 27 Fort Brox Podcast

    In Episode 27 of Fort Brox, we are discussing today’s tech news we find interesting. After a brief catch up with each other, we start our podcast talking about the ETH ETF launch, our thoughts mixed with opinions on ETFs for crypto in general. We get into the accessibility of crypto now and potential risks facing the industry today. Hidden Pixels - a brief preview of what’s in store, before a segue into AI and the need for accountability in the industry, as well as our thoughts on AI as it co-mingles with everyday society.

    This is all before we get into the meat of today’s episode, as we are talking about EV’s, but more specifically, EB’s. Electric Bikes have become our preferred modes of transportation, and Neil’s daily driver. We discuss the difficulties the industry faces from our own personal perspective, having had real world experiences, both good and bad.

    We are excited to share what we find value in, so you can share it with others!
