Episode notes

It’s been a month since the Bitcoin halving. The dust has settled, we’re past the supposed 2-week danger zone for BTC prices. All in all, it’s a good time to look back and see what happened in the ecosystem and where we’re headed from here. Have a listen to our post-halving episode where Magy was joined by none other than Allen Farrington , co-author of Bitcoin Is Venice . The episode features stories from how the Nexo team spent the halving, a breakdown of events following it, and after the end of the episode, a short bonus discussion of how Allen came to publish Bitcoin is Venice . What we covered: Was the halving priced in, what part ETFs played and why we shouldn’t fixate on the price. The rollercoaster ride in the first days after the halving: the launch of Runes, transaction fees ups and downs, and mainstream vs. crypto newsflows. Why the Bitcoin halving is like Soviet Christmas - bear with us on this one, t’was a fun analogy. Why Twitter (X) is not real life, but Bitcoin will become the infrastructure for our lives. How Allen, Magy and the Nexo team spent the 2024 Bitcoin halving.
