Update: 2022-06-21

Description

There’s been some crazy news in Crypto, so we bring on Vinny Lingham, an early investor in Solana, who runs a startup that encrypts identity information on the blockchain called Civic. We dig into NFT NYC (8:24 ), the fiasco on Solend protocol (22:29 ), and how South Korean prosecutors have instituted a flight ban for employees while they investigate the $40 billion collapse (45:54 ). Finally, we talk about how, despite all of this, the Solana NFT Marketplace Magic Eden still raised $130 million at a $1.6 billion valuation (51:04 ).
