The latest Talking Tokens podcast 🎙️

For the Thursday Talking Tokens episode, I sat down with Hong Sun, head of institutions at Core.

Core is a PoS Bitcoin-focused blockchain that enables self-custodial Bitcoin staking, while supporting a EVM-compatible BTCfi ecosystem. 

We dive into the evolution of BTCFi, how bitcoin holders are transitioning from having a reserve asset to a productive one, institutional adoption of bitcoin, the role Core is playing in scaling yield and revenue-sharing, as well as how stablecoins play a part in all this. 

Talking Tokens episodes are released on Spotify and Apple Podcasts at 6AM EST or YouTube at 8AM EST every Tuesday and Thursday. Listen in!
