Welcome to the Crypto Curious podcast — brought to you by the Bamboo App.
I’m Tracey, and this week we’re looking at a set of stories that all point to one big shift: crypto adoption isn’t coming from where people expected.
👉🏼 We start with a $200 million Ethereum-backed bet on MrBeast — not a token launch, not an ad deal, but a signal that creators and distribution may matter more than exchanges or banks ever did.
👉🏼 Then we head to Washington, where US crypto laws have stalled yet again — and why this pause might actually be a sign that regulation is finally moving from rushed reactions to more thoughtful design.
👉🏼 And finally, we unpack the growing reality that the US government now controls around 3% of all Bitcoin — raising big questions about ownership, neutrality, and what it really means for Bitcoin to sit outside the system.
We’re also joined this week by Matthew Fraser — entrepreneur, long-time crypto investor, and educator — to help us ground these stories in what they mean for everyday investors thinking long term.
Let's get into it 🚀
