0:00.0	Hi, everyone. Welcome to Unchained, your no hype resource for all things crypto. I'm your host,
0:08.8	Laura Shin, a journalist for the over two decades of experience. I started covering crypto
0:13.5	six years ago, and as a senior editor at Forbes, was the first mainstream media reporter
0:18.1	to cover cryptocurrency full-time. This is the June 15th, 2021 episode of Unchained,
0:24.8	which makes it the five-year anniversary of the podcast. I was originally planning a five-year
0:33.1	anniversary event for the show, like an in-person event, but it's not really possible to wrap up a
0:40.7	book, plan an event, and also produce two podcasts a week and a daily newsletter, so I will be
0:47.1	planning an event for the fall. And what's even better about that is that we should be more fully
0:52.6	past COVID at that time, which means we could have an event with you or no restrictions,
0:58.7	so stay tuned for news on that. TASOS is smart money. That's redefining what it means to hold
1:05.4	an exchange value in a digitally connected world. Discover how people are reimagining the world
1:10.7	around you on TASOS. Conjure brings any asset you want onto Ethereum by allowing for users to

1:21.6	it's helping DeFi to consume TradFi. That's c-o-n-j-u-r-e.finance. Check it out.
1:29.2	The Crypto.com app lets you buy, earn, and spend crypto all in one place, earn up to 8.5%
1:35.9	interest on your Bitcoin, and 14% interest on your stablecoins, paid weekly. Download the Crypto.com app
1:42.9	and get $25 with the code Laura. The link is in the description.
1:47.6	Today's episode for the 5-year anniversary is just an AMA because I'm also wrapping up my book
1:54.3	as we speak and just needed to use the time that I would have used to book a guest to
2:04.4	finish up the book. So today's first question is a poem from Ben Lawson,
2:10.0	whose some of you might remember for making this amazing video that we used in the live
2:14.4	podcast recording with Vitalik Booterin back in 2019. And for this episode, Ben has written a
