Episode notes

The SEC has charged crypto asset trading platform Bittrex and its former CEO for operating unregistered securities exchange, brokerage and clearing agency. This was actually the first call to the Bitcoin exchange that I ever traded ICOs on back in 2017. It's been like losing in volume ever since 2017. Omisego, Algorand, Dash, the monolith token, IHT. And NGC, I also don't know what that is, are securities.
