🎙️Fresh Hot Topics Video: Self-Policing in Crypto, Bitcoin ATMs, and the Future of Bitcoin Mining
On the latest episode of Hot Topics on the Edge of NFT, we’re delighted to introduce our new co-host, January Jones, and our special guest, Ben Schiller, Managing Editor for Features and Opinions at CoinDesk. Let’s explore the dynamic realms of Web3, blockchain, and digital assets for this past week.
Key Takeaways:
Self-Policing in Crypto: We discussed the launch of Tether, Tron, and TRM Labs' T3 Financial Crime Unit to tackle illicit activities on the Tron blockchain. While this initiative aims to boost security, can these companies truly self-regulate, especially with 45% of illicit crypto volume tied to Tron?
Bitcoin ATMs and Adoption: Bitcoin ATMs are emerging globally, offering a user-friendly entry point for newcomers. However, we highlighted risks such as security vulnerabilities and the need for user education to ensure safe transactions.
The Future of Bitcoin Mining: Bitcoin mining profitability is declining due to falling prices and rising network hash rates. As larger players consolidate, we questioned the long-term implications for Bitcoin's decentralization and sustainability.
Join us for an insightful discussion! 🎧 Whether you're a crypto veteran or a newcomer, there's something valuable for you.👉 Listen or watch when it comes out, comment, stay curious, secure, and innovative in Web3!
