The Bad Crypto Podcast ·

2023/03/01

It seems a week doesn't go by that we don't hear about someone in the crypto space losing their crypto or NFTs to scammers, hackers and other ne'er do wells. Back in 2017 we talked about how Travis got hacked and almost lost his cryptos. Kevin Rose lost $1,000,000 in NFTs in a wallet draining attack just last month. And now it's finally happened. I got phished. It was an incredibly stupid mistake that could have and should have been avoided. But it's what happened subsequently that I find the most

Stablecoin Crackdown - Bad News For Feb 16, 2023

The Bad Crypto Podcast ·

2023/02/17

The thing about stablecoins is that they are designed to be stable. When all else fails in the crypto market, $1 should equal $1. That is, until they don’t. Like if you are Do Kwon and your UST collapses by pegging your currency to an overleveraged crypto. Or, until the SEC gets involved and brings instability to the space. Crypto staking is also in the sights of the government as rumors circle about circle’s USDC. Is Coinbase ready for a battle? And Senator Cruz may be on to something as he

Learning about Zero Knowledge Proofs

The Bad Crypto Podcast ·

2023/01/26

A young man walks into a bar and says “gimme a vodka tonic”. Unsure of the man’s age, the bartender must ask to see his identification in order to prove he is old enough to drink. What if the bartender knew from the blockchain that the guy was old enough without even asking for an ID? He would be accepting proof with no knowledge of actually having seen the proof. That’s zero knowledge proof… or ZKP. Today on the show we welcome Dor Garbash of the Mina Foundation to discuss ZKPs and why they are

When we mention the word Ethereum, who do you think of first? Most would default to Vitalik Buterin.
