Shownotes Transcript

On this week's CoinMarketRecap with Connor Sephton, analysts are confident after Bitcoin erased its losses for the year and hit $48,000. Does this mean 2022's dip is over? Also, the crypto industry reacts with alarm as European politicians approve a clamp down on unhosted wallets. More than $600 million is stolen from the blockchain that powers the popular Axie Infinity game, with some players losing their life savings in the biggest crypto hack of all time. We've got a roundup of this week's NFT news too, as "non-fungible slaps" are launched after Will Smith hit Chris Rock at the Oscars. And Molly Jane Zuckerman joins us to discuss a controversial new Greenpeace campaign that calls for Bitcoin to abandon its Proof-of-Work blockchain.
