CoinDesk Podcast Network - BREAKDOWN: Interpol, Elon-DOGE and the Latest Crypto Controversy

Whenever crypto isn't facing a crisis, we invent one.

Ah, just a casual Monday in crypto land, where an encrypted tweet from an influencer leads to billions of dollars of value wiped off the market cap. On today’s episode, NLW looks at the CZ Interpol Red Notice rumors, explanations for Elon Musk changing Twitter’s blue bird icon to a Shiba Inu dog, and more substantive news about the latest hearings around Binance.US’ intended acquisition of bankrupt Voyager Digital’s assets.

“The Breakdown” is written, produced and narrated by Nathaniel Whittemore aka NLW, with editing by Michele Musso and research by Scott Hill. Jared Schwartz is our executive producer and our theme music is “Countdown” by Neon Beach. Music behind our sponsor today is “Foothill Blvd” by Sam Barsh. Image credit: by CoinDesk.

Find out what happened and why Matt thinks there's a chance the conviction might not be going away after all.
