Welcome back to The Breakdown with me, NLW.

0:09.3

It's a daily podcast on macro, Bitcoin, and the big picture power shifts remaking our world.

0:16.3

The breakdown is sponsored by Nidig and produced and distributed by CoinDes.

What's going on, guys? It is Thursday, October 28th, and yes, we are actually doing it. There is

0:29.7

so little else to talk about, and I have done so many regulation shows in a row that here we are

0:35.8

talking about Shib, or Sh Shib or however you pronounce it.

0:41.4

1:42.0

in large part, Elon Musk talking about it incessantly on Twitter.

1:46.2

Around that time, again, April May of this year, we had Dogecoin Cash, Kisha Inu, Underdog,
