This week Jonathan and Douglas catch up on WWDC, talk UK medical data sharing, the Fastly outage, rising food prices, and Brave gets its own search engine.
After our non-sponsor we dive into This Week in Crypto, covering China’s coal Bitcoin crackdown, MicroStrategy buying half a billion dollars more Bitcoin, El Salvador’s acceptance of Bitcoin as their personal saviour, and Kraken’s security measures.
We close as usual with Shitcoin or Fakecoin.
