The Bad Crypto Podcast

The majority of the massive Silicon Valley social and web tech companies don’t see you as a customer. They see you as a product. Capturing your data and selling it to the highest bidder, you exist to meet their bottom line. The behemoth known as Google, once committed to living to their now-defunct mantra, “Don’t be evil”, couldn’t care less about you.  But what if you could reclaim your privacy, secure your data and be treated with value by one of these companies? We don’t see that happening any time soon from Google, but fortunately there are some brave companies that are bucking the trend and creating solutions that do indeed value you, and even reward you for using their products. One such company is unironically called Brave. And their web browser is the fast, secure and satisfying solution to those who are ready to ditch Google Chrome. Today, we welcome Luke Mulks to the show. Luke is Director of Business Development at Brave, and by the time you are done listening we think you’ll be a Brave fan, as well. It’s time to take back your Internet experience from those who would seek to use and abuse your good will.  Welcome to episode #321 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.  Full Show Notes at: http://badco.in/321 SUBSCRIBE, RATE, & REVIEW: Apple Podcast: http://badco.in/itunes Google Podcasts: http://badco.in/google Spotify: http://badco.in/spotify FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Twitter: @BadCrypto - @joelcomm - @teedubya Facebook:  /BadCrypto - /JoelComm - /teedubyaw Facebook Mastermind Group: /BadCrypto LinkedIn: /in/joelcomm - /in/teedubya Instagram: @BadCryptoPodcast Email: badcryptopodcast[at]gmail[dot]com Phone: SEVEN-OH-8-88FIVE- 90THIRTY DONATE CRYPTO TO THE SHOW:If you'd like to donate a bit of cryptocurrency to The Bad Crypto Podcast, feel free to send copious amounts to the following locations:  $BTC: Bitcoin: 3GMgCH4dFUHSLdrPnLwEsfKPVnLnoGbzGZ $ETH Ethereum: 0x1ccE8A04fa6743eD1D24cA063c7543D43B42F328 $LTC Litecoin: LavXqTWVHebEgVhBXdg3Hue3xEAmgtxLgr $DOGE Dogecoin:  DMngvNMX1U8Sg8PkDjCC3UTS8Mmn9RqTP5 DISCLAIMER:Do your own due diligence and research. Joel Comm and Travis Wright are NOT FINANCIAL ADVISORS.

It’s been five years since the Internal Revenue Service has issued any guidance on the tax implications of cryptocurrency. Well, the wait is over. And we’re not sure it was worth the wait. Andreas Antonopolous says that Google’s Quantum supremacy doesn’t affect Bitcoin and Tim Cook says that Apple won’t be making a crypto like Facebook’s Libra. Speaking of Libra, Mark Zuckerberg will soon be testifying before Congress on Facebook’s new coin. And eToro has signed a deal with the UFC. It’s fight club for crypto… just don’t talk about it.

Do you trade in a land down under? Trader Cobb does. And as a recurring guest on this show, we thought we would call on Craig for his expertise, and discover how to become a crypto-trader.  In the first part of a monthly series designed to teach you, and us, the skills of crypto trading, today we’ll discover the kinds of traders and the mindset you need to establish to be successful. So slather that vegemite on a piece of bread and wonder how they even eat this stuff as we speak with Trader Cobb from Australia, for episode #317 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.

Crypto giants are coming together to rate coins, the number of crypto wallets is at an all-time high, McAfee is STILL standing by his $1,000,000 Bitcoin prediction, and Gold seems to be currently preferred over Bitcoin as a safehaven for concerned investors. The SEC has settled their charges with Block.one, Libra moves forward but some participants are beginning to question their involvement, and it’s game on as Travis and I go head-to-head in a friendly crypto investing competition. What happens next? You’ll have to tune in and find out on our Bad News episode #316 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.

Greetings, Citizens of the Republic of Bad Cryptopia. Her Royal Highness welcomes you to an episode that would make Agent 007 proud. Blockchain is for everyone. And Sir John Hargrave wants the world to know about the cryptos. So he has written a book to make it so. Today, Sir John joins the Royal Jesters to discuss how he learned the secrets of the new millionaire class, and you can too. Her Majesty’s a pretty nice girl, but she doesn’t have a lot to say. But Sir John Hargrave does. And since the Queen didn’t accept our invitation to this show, we’ll just listen to him instead. So grab your tea by the crumpets and get Knighted for just $35.

We met many super-interesting people while in Bali at the Altcoin Mastermind. One guy really intrigued us with his story. And we thought you’d be intrigued as well. After making and losing over one million dollars twice in a row, Bruno Ver struck gold with his next investment in a major tech company. But he didn’t stop there. Bruno went down the crypto rabbit hole and is now a partner in Block 5 capital. We’re happy to bring Bruno to you today so you can hear his story. And both Travis and I are now mining cryptos on a new device called the CoinMine One. It’s an X-Box sized device that you plug in and stand back while it mines. No computer needed. We’ll speak with Farbood Nivi of CoinMine to talk about his new mining device. Crypto startups and crypto upstarts. It’s all here on episode #314 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.

We knew that the quantum computing barrier would be broken sooner or later, but we honestly thought it would be later then sooner. However, Google announced that they have already achieved quantum supremacy, and many are wondering how this will affect Bitcoin. Bakkt has finally launched their Bitcoin futures market, Patrick Byrne sells his entire portfolio of Overstock holdings, and the fed prints billions more in dirty fiat currency. Crypto goes up. Crypto goes down. And today is a bit of a downer. But I guess that just brings more legitimacy to us as we present you with the Bad News episode #313 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.
