On today's holiday episode of Markets Daily, we celebrate the new year with a classic song from the early days of bitcoin, written and performed by my good friend John Barrett.

Ode to Satoshi may be purchased from CD-Baby or listened to on Youtube

On today’s holiday episode, we’ll define and demystify the blockchain term “DeFi”

On today’s holiday episode, we’ll define and demystify the blockchain concepts of “Hot Wallets” and “Cold Storage”

On today’s holiday episode, we’ll quickly define and demystify the blockchain term “Smart Contract”

On today’s holiday episode of Markets Daily, we’ll define and demystify the blockchain term “ HODL”

On today's holiday episode of Markets Daily, we're joined by Santa Clause for a bitcoin holiday classic.

[To the tune of Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas]

Get Yourself a Little Bit of Bitcoin

Let your heart be light

And in time the value will be out of sight

Get Yourself a Little Bit of Bitcoin

Make your Yuletide cool

Those who hesitate will be the only fools

Here we are with the markets down

Don’t you wear a frown my friend

For in time yes it’s coming soon

We’ll go to the Moon again

Through the years we’ve hodled and we’ve traded

Kept our dream somehow

Here’s to all developers you should be proud

So Get Yourself a Little Bit of Bitcoin now.

On today's holiday episode of Markets Daily, we take a look at the term "Satoshi", it's origin, what it means and why it matters.
