This could be the perfect commute podcast, but you can also listen while on your Rona Rig too!

Bobby interviewed Dr. Omri Ross, Chief Blockchain Scientist at eToro where he shared his thoughts on Ethereum and the future of finance. This is the same Dr. Ross that co-wrote the Bancor (BNT) whitepaper too!

Pooltogether introduces "Pods", letting multiple users split lottery wins

PoolTogether - the DeFi lottery Dapp, introduced a new feature to increase the odds of winning its crypto lottery called "Pods".

User can increase their chances of winning the lottery increase as the number of tickets increase by combining their lottery tickets into Pods.

If their Pods got selected for the lottery prize, it will be split evenly among the Pod's participants.

There is only one Pods currently. though users are expected to generate more Pods in the future.

Editor: So it's kinda like Mining Pools only instead of running machines you're lending out funds, cool concept!

BUSD will be available on Elrond at Mainnet launch

Binance and Elrond (ERD) are working together to bring Binance USD (BUSD) stablecoin to Elrond Network.

Using the Elrond Standard Digital Token model, Binance expects transaction on the network to be "fast and efficient".

The Elrond mainnet will launch soon with Binance USD as the first available stablecoin.

Editor: Elrond tokens are not on Elrond mainnet yet. You can own them as ERC-20 tokens on Ethereum chain or (you guess'd it) as BEP-2 tokens on Binance Chain.

Bitfinex Lists pToken BTC, Cross-Chain DeFi Token

Bitfinex exchange plans to list pTokens BTC (pBTC), which it claims will drive DeFi liquidity by bridging disconnected DeFi ecosystems.

Bitfinex CTO, Paolo Ardoino told that exchange expects to add support for pBTC deposits and withdrawals by the end of May 2020.

"At the moment we are supporting only pTokens but we welcome more projects to work with us to make it easier for our users to obtain access to cross-chain liquidity." he says

Editor: Cross chain DeFi would be great! crypto-tribalism asides, crypto is all about ease of access and this is a step in the right direction, you agree?

Cold Storage

"Who knew that you can store your crypto the same way you'd store chicken meat!"

In contrast to hot storage which are typically online to allow for fast deposit/withdrawal, cold storage refers to the offline storage of cryptocurrencies through the use of hardware non-custodial wallets, wallet files stored in USB or offline computers, as well as paper wallets.
