Join us for this week's episode of Crypto Curious, your go-to source for the latest crypto developments! It's Tracey and Blake taking the reins as Craig enjoys a brief break..

Before we delve into the hottest topics in the crypto world, let's take a moment to reflect on September's market performance and what "Uptober" might have in store. Are we in for sideways trading or a splash of volatility?


In our first story, we unpack the SEC's decision to delay the approval of Spot Bitcoin ETFs. Plus SEC Chair Gary Gensler is facing mounting pressure from U.S. House lawmakers, who are pushing for immediate action. What's next for ETFs, and how will Gensler respond to these challenges?

Then, get ready for the courtroom drama we've all been waiting for! The trial of Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF), the former head of FTX, kicks off with jury selection this week. What can we expect from this trial, and will justice be served? We share our predictions.


We cover Coinbase's perpetual futures trading, Gary V and Mattel's exciting collaboration, Kraken's entry into stock and ETF trading, Pudgy Penguins waddling into Walmart, MoneyGram's non-custodial wallet, Chainlink's cross-chain protocol expansion, the Winklevoss twins' mysterious $280 million withdrawal, and Valkyrie's addition of ether futures to their ETF.


Plus, we spotlight the exciting merger of Boss Beauties and the MyBFF collection, empowering women in the web3 space. Tune in for all this and more on Crypto Curious!
