How Global Economic Chaos Is the Future of Crypto Despite Collapse of Sam Bankman-Friend & FTX. Analysis by Pat La Vecchia, Oasis Pro; Jess Brown, Himalaya Exchange & financial writer Jeffrey Robinson
It's a collapse that some have called crypto's "Lehman moment," according to a stirring account of the fall of the FTX Crypto exchange, the darling of the digital currency jet set. Once valued at multiple billions of dollars, the surprise destruction of Bahamas-based FTX caught many investors, regulators and media mavens completely off-guard. How could this be? Founder Sam Bankman-Friend was the poster boy of the industry, a friend of regulators, lawmakers and celebrities. Sure, he had a strange attraction, a funky hairdo and a stare and look that could melt butter. But this made him all the more special in some -- he was the rockabilly of crypto and he would change the world. That's for sure and the rest is history. On this episode, we will offer our analysis of the future. Then we will play you three significant interviews with crypto experts and pundits: Pat LaVecchia, CEO of Oasis Pro; Jesse Brown, CEO of Himalaya Exchange and finally best selling author, Jeffrey Robinson who has investigated crypto. The trio have been around the block (chain). You be the judge of what comes next. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/john-aidan-byrne0/support
