Macro Update! Bitcoin Winning Against Governments - Fed Watch 26

This week we have a Macro and Bitcoin Update, CK and Ansel recap prior guests, discuss recent Federal Reserve quiet, the ECB digital Euro study and trademarking of the term, and dive in deeply into the Bitmex, Bitcoin, and Tether. One of the big topics is the way in which Tether and now Bitmex are fighting the most powerful regulator in the world, the US government, and they seem to be at least winning right now. It seems as though Bitcoin is winning against Governments.
