Are ‘Pharma Bro’ and Barron Trump behind DJT token, and is Kraken being extorted?
Manage episode 424588376 series 3528570
In over 150 episodes, we have never covered more crypto drama in a single episode than this one — not by a long shot. As usual, we’ll start with a rundown of Bitcoin in the past 24 hours, explaining why the price has felt stuck for so long, the insane number of short positions in BTC, and why one popular statistic about Bitcoin miners is misleading. Then it’s onto the drama, with Kraken claiming it is being extorted for $3 million by a mystery security research team, which then outed itself publicly, and Arkham has put out a $150,000 bounty to find out who is behind TrumpCoin, as rumors abound about “Pharma Bro” Martin Shkreli and Barron Trump.
