Description

Crypto is an asset class that runs 24/7. It’s hard to keep up. So we’re back with a show that reviews the biggest stories of the week. Here’s one: the United Kingdom is amping up plans to launch a digital currency, which folks have started calling Britcoin. 
And there’s been a significant development in the dispute among various crypto billionaires. On one side: Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss and their Gemini Exchange. On the other, Barry Silbert and Genesis. Plus: how this year’s Super Bowl will be different from last year’s ...at least when it comes to crypto ads.
Senior editor Anna Irrera joins this episode to review the week’s top crypto news.

Crypto is the world's hottest financial trend. Digital tokens like Bitcoin and NFTs have moved from niche products to showing up in Super Bowl commercials and song lyrics.  Advocates of these new asset classes promise they will democratize the finance industry, and they hail the blockchain technology that backs it all as the future of computing. Skeptics say it's another financial house of cards. No newsroom on the planet is better equipped than Bloomberg to cut through all the noise and provide clarity, context and authority. In this new daily podcast, Bloomberg’s reporting team will tease out what’s actually important in the crypto conversation. Led by crypto expert Stacy-Marie Ishmael, the podcast will draw on reporters in every region and credible voices in the industry to cover everything from regulation to alt coins to DeFi, and even the environmental impact of the currency that promises to change the finance landscape indefinitely.
