Episode notes

Bitcoin has slipped back below $65,000 as surging oil prices, rising inflation fears and a sharp technology-stock sell-off hit the wider cryptocurrency market.

In today’s Daily Crypto Roundup , we break down why Alphabet’s enormous artificial-intelligence spending plans initially lifted the chip trade before investors began questioning the cost. We also examine what higher oil prices and renewed fears of an interest-rate increase could mean for Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP and the wider crypto market.

BlackRock, Coinbase, Strategy, Fidelity Digital Assets and several other major crypto companies have pledged $15 million to support Bitcoin security research. We explain the potential quantum-computing threat, why Bitcoin is not in immediate danger and why the network must begin preparing years before sufficiently powerful quantum computers exist.

We also cover the latest battle over the Clarity Act as Senator Cynthia Lummis attempts to secure the 60 votes needed to advance the legislation. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse is urging Congress to act, while disagreements over political ethics, illicit finance and regulatory powers continue to divide lawmakers.

Finally, Uniswap is expanding into tokenized real-world assets through permissioned trading pools designed for regulated securities, tokenized funds, Treasury products and institutional investors.
