Show Notes

Connor Sephton and Molly Jane Zuckerman chew over the week's crypto headlines in the weekend edition of CoinMarketRecap. We talk about Coinbase's handling of its hiring freeze, which saw some new recruits lose job offers. Plus, Edge's "Confidential Mastercard" has been temporarily disabled... but would Mastercard ever allow its name to be associated with a product that allows anonymous transactions? Meanwhile, an anonymous Twitter user is threatening to release 137GB of Telegram data that claims to uncover serious wrongdoing by crypto influencers — we'll debate whether this is genuine. We'll also hear from Bitcoin.com's CEO Dennis Jarvis from the Consensus conference in Texas — and we've got some sad news about Connor's hamster Bagel.
