Episode notes

Bitcoin reclaimed $80,000 after Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller described a conditional path to holding rates steady. The rally is real, but the September decision still depends heavily on the next inflation report.

Also covered: Standard Chartered launching institutional Bitcoin and Ether spot trading in the United Arab Emirates, Hargreaves Lansdown opening 9 crypto exchange-traded notes to approximately 2 million UK clients, SoFi and Kraken connecting banking and liquidity rails, Robinhood Chain leading daily network fees, and plans to put legal ownership of catastrophe bonds onchain.

Listener question: Would you buy Bitcoin above $80,000 because September rate-hike odds fell below 50%, or wait for inflation to confirm Waller’s condition?

Availability and eligibility vary by region. The 20 XRP is supplied by Crypto News Today, not Kraken.
