Welcome to the What Bit Bitcoin Did Podcast.

Hi there, how are you all?

Hope you're okay.

This is a special bonus release What Bitcoin did Podcast.

There was a report put out yesterday by

Bitwise Invest looking at Bitcoin Exchange Volumes it was presented to the SEC as part of

their EDF application so I got onto the phone with Matt Hoagum Global Head of

Research a bitwise to discuss this.

So it's just a bonus release, just a short, half an hour an interview.

I just thought this would be useful for listeners of the podcast to digest what the report says,

because there's really important

information related to fake volumes on crypto exchanges even though they

believe 95% of volume is fake it's not too drastic for the market actually there's

a whole bunch of good stuff in there so anyway listen there's no

ads in this episode just a short little episode discussing this with Matt hope you

enjoy it any feedback give me a shout you know my email it's hello at what

Bitcoin did dot com. Hi there Matt how are you?

I'm doing great how are you?

Yeah I'm doing pretty good so you are in my country and I'm in your country.

Something is wrong here, but that's right, yeah, over in London.

Well, thank you for doing this at short notice.

I saw Jake Javinsky retweet your research piece and I thought it would be good to get you on the phone
