Keep Your Crypto Safe

A “crack-me-not” password and your seed phrase in a safe won’t keep your crypto safe… what will?

Last time on DiffuseTap, we asked Frances Zelazny, Co-Founder & CEO of Anonybit, about the risks our digital identities are exposed to, how solutions such as facial recognition are becoming part of Web3 security infrastructure, and what the crucial steps are for investors to secure their crypto assets.

Detecting NFT Hype

Is the NFT hype crazy or are we crazy for not riding the hype to killer returns?

Last time on DiffuseTap, we asked Dip Majumder, CEO of Alpha Trend, about what hype means to the world of DeFi and NFTs, how to spot early signs of hype waves in the markets, and what the common hype misconceptions are that limit investors’ upside.

From CFTC Crypto Taskforce to NFT Innovator

Crypto’s oversight might move from the SEC to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, and industry players are cautiously optimistic. But what is the CFTC’s actual stance on regulation?

Last time on DiffuseTap, we ask Jeff Bandman, Principal at Bandman Advisors, formerly with the CFTC crypto taskforce, about how the department works, who’s part of it, where the power lies, and what the CFTC could do for the industry moving forward.
