Show Notes
U.S. regulators are tightening the screw on crypto scams, with the Securities and Exchange Commission filing civil charges against 11 people involved in a scheme called Forsage. The regulators allege the primary way retail investors in the scheme, worth some $300M, made money was through attracting new people on board. Real Vision's Ash Bennington and Moritz Seibert also look at a new global crypto regulation index (guess what country came out on top?) and the jewelry maker Tiffany tying the knot with CryptoPunks in an NFT collaboration. Plus, Ash asks Moritz to do a deep dive into his interview with Kai Wu, all about value investing in the crypto space, with key takeaways at the end. Send us your questions in the chat!
