Bitcoin mining is exploding as the SEC chairman, Gary Gensler, takes center stage at a congressional hearing.  What he said, and didn’t say, has many calling for his resignation. Ethereum unstaking is now a thing, but it hasn’t negatively affected the price of the token.  Israel considers a digital shekel.  And Bittrex exits the United States. Can crypto stay decentralized or will the US Government use their bullying power to make us all CBDC slaves? We’ll look at the top news and offer our politically incorrect opinions on our bad news episode #679 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.  Full Show Notes at: http://badco.in/679 SUBSCRIBE, RATE, & REVIEW: Apple Podcast: http://badco.in/itunes Google Podcasts: http://badco.in/google Spotify: http://badco.in/spotify Amazon Music: http://badco.in/amazon FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Twitter: @badcryptopod - @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 BE A FEATURED GUEST: http://badco.in/apply DISCLAIMER: Do your own due diligence and research.

While many are focused on the financial use cases for blockchain, others are building out tech to utilize blockchain to make things we do better. In 2019, people around the world spent over $250 billion on books. Understanding how people purchase and consume the written word provides us with a use case begging for a better mousetrap. Today we welcome Joshua Stone, CEO and co-founder of Book.io, to the show to discuss the future of books. This is especially interesting to Travis and myself, as we are both published authors.

Bank runs appear to be the in-thing for 2023, and Bitcoin seems to be holding its own as the hedge against the collapse of the US dollar. Tim Draper even recommends that startups hold Bitcoin for that very reason. Now the US government is going after CZ and Binance for selling illegal securities. Elon Musk trolls Twitter users and Dogecoin pops 30%. JP Morgan trolls Ripple on behalf of the SEC. And the courts are trolling Michael Terpin in his bid to recover the $24 million lost when his sim was swapped.  Boy is he pissed! As for us, well we are trolling you on this Bad News episode #677 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.

The Creature from Jekyll Island has fully co-opted federal and state governments. The powers-that-be want nothing more than to lord over you, the citizens, with their power. And yet, there are some in government who are not narcissistic sociopaths. They seek to make real change for the people who vote for them. Imagine that. Today we welcome Maine State Senator Eric Brakey to the show to discuss the war in Ukraine, the current banking crisis and how he is working to represent the people by keeping up to date with the world of crypto. We promise that it won’t be an Achy Breaky show. Just a little Brakey.  This is episode #676 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.

Hey ChatGPT, what are five interesting facts about the state of Texas?  Size and population: Texas is the second-largest state in the United States, both in terms of area and population. As of the last census, the population of Texas was around 29 million, making it the second-most populous state in the U.S. after California. Six flags over Texas: The phrase "six flags over Texas" refers to the six different nations that have ruled over the region throughout its history.  Texas has a booming economy, ranking as the 9th largest in the world if it were a separate country.  The Alamo, located in San Antonio, is one of the most famous landmarks in Texas and the site of a pivotal battle during the Texas Revolution.  The Texas State Capitol in Austin, completed in 1888, is the largest state capitol building in the United States. It is even taller than the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C.  But that’s enough about Texas. Pardon our dyslexic moment, but this show is about TAXES.  Today we welcome Crypto Tax CPA Clinton Donnelly back to the show to discuss two major happenings that everyone should be aware of as it relates to your taxes. It ain’t Texas, but we’ve got a heart as big as it on our pay your taxes, bitches, episode #674 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.
