Shownotes Transcript

On this week’s CoinMarketRecap podcast with Connor Sephton, we talk to Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Mike McGlone. He believes that Bitcoin has the potential to reach $100,000 — and Ether could race to $5,000.But has this month’s market crash affected his view — and how low could BTC go if things turn bearish next year?CoinMarketCap’s Molly Jane Zuckerman also joins Connor to discuss this week’s crypto news — starting with the scandal that has engulfed the world’s biggest NFT marketplace. OpenSea has confirmed that one of its employees used insider information — buying non-fungible tokens before they were featured on the company’s homepage, and later selling them for profit. We also talk about Solana’s high-profile outage, and the impact it’s had on SOL’s price. Plus, a deep dive into the bogus announcement that Walmart was going to accept Litecoin payments… and the consequences it’s had.
