According to statistics, 40% of Americans own some form of cryptocurrency. This number has increased from the 30% reported when the first Bitcoin ETF was launched. The hosts discuss how the introduction of crypto ETFs has made it easier for people with brokerage accounts to invest in cryptocurrencies.
3. Government Involvement in Crypto and Its Impact
The hosts debate whether increased government involvement in crypto is a positive or negative development. While some argue that government buying could increase demand and boost prices, others believe that it goes against the decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies and could lead to increased regulation and centralization.

The hosts discuss whether a recession would be good or bad for cryptocurrencies. They consider factors such as job losses, slow growth, and the potential loss of the US dollar's status as the world's reserve currency. The hosts also debate whether crypto will diverge from traditional asset classes or follow risk assets during a downturn.
5. Energy Consumption and Political Risks in Crypto Mining
The hosts touch upon the energy consumption required for mining cryptocurrencies, particularly Bitcoin.
