Why Banks Suck, The Great Taking & How To Prepare |...

Bankless ·

2024/07/22

Why do banks suck? Banks suck is the reason we started this bankless thing. Not that banks are all bad but they take too much and give to little. They need to be disrupted. We brought Mel Mattison, author of Quoz, and he’s very clear on what’s wrong with banks. They’ve become too centralized, unbalanced, short-sighted, corrupt. Power has tilted away from the people and into the hands of a central banking cabal. The relationship between sovereign governments and private banks has become an unholy

Making America Pro-Crypto | Congressman French Hill

2024/07/18

Bankless Nation, the question today is: Is the U.S. flipping pro-crypto? The United States has either been anti-crypto or neutral since the birth of Bitcoin. That’s starting to change. For the first time, we actually have momentum in D.C. There will be many battles ahead, but right now, crypto is making progress. What would a pro-crypto America look like? What laws do we need to pass to get there? Who do we still need to convince, and how close are we? ------ 📣SPOTIFY PREMIUM RSS FEED | USE

2024/07/17

SOL is currently trading at an 83% discount to ETH - should it be? Michael Nadeau is a crypto analyst who can help us answer this question. His approach isn’t technical, he isn’t a decentralization-maximalist, and he doesn’t represent any specific tribe.

In our discussion, we explore why fundamentals matter when analyzing crypto assets like ETH and SOL. We review the
