In today's episode, we farewell one of the OG's of Crypto Curious. That's right, Craig is being cancelled!!! But before we get too misty-eyed, we're kicking off with something very on-brand for Craig: a bullish Ethereum update that might just make you want to double down. If you’ve been with us from the start, you’ll know Craig’s been waving the ETH flag since day one — so it’s only fitting.Then, we dive into a bombshell from the deep pockets of Bitcoin history. One of the original Satoshi-era whales has just moved a jaw-dropping 80,000 BTC — that’s over $9 billion worth — and exited the market. What does it mean? We’ve got thoughts.And finally, as Craig signs off from his regular spot on the pod, we turn the mic squarely on him. It’s time for a no-holds-barred hot seat moment: his predictions, market sentiment, and maybe even some long-hoarded alpha. This is Craig’s crystal ball episode🔮Let's go 🚀TIMESTAMPS3:30 ETH flipping?7:57 80,000 BTC sold off.
