This episode is sponsored by Ciphertrace.


"The Hash" hosts weigh in on the top stories shaping the crypto world day, including a closer look at why the Tornado Cash token (TORN) is higher, after a proposal submitted by a wallet address linked to a recent attack on the decentralized autonomous organization’s (DAO) governance state looks to reverse the malicious changes. Meanwhile, move-to-earn game STEPN is integrating Apple Pay. Plus, Bitcoin Pizza Day has taken a negative turn, as rug pulls dampen the anniversary of what's thought to be the first commercial bitcoin transaction.
