Jam packed and bigger than ever, Crypto Weekly returns for Episode 13. If you enjoy the show please consider showing us some love over at www.patreon.com/cryptoweekly for exclusive content, live Q & A's and generally for the warm fuzzy feeling it brings knowing that you're helping us eat. The main news this week is that of course Consensus is upon us. At the time of recording it was wrapping up and so the Crypto Weekly gang give a rundown of what actually went on this year and why the markets are getting wrecked. Vitalik confirms he is a total bro and more than we deserve as he helps EOS sort out their consensus issues, even though they take every opportunity to FUD him. The NSA can neither confirm nor deny that they had anything to do with the creation of Bitcoin; could Roberto Escobar have been right all along? Is Diet Bitcoin the real deal?! Facebook announced that they would be exploring the blockchain and cryptocurrency space, most likely in an attempt to divert everyone's attention away from them selling their data. Crypto Weekly discuss what medium this could potentially take. Ethereum futures are announced and much much more top tier analysis in this week's news. Ken's Coin of the Week takes a look at Anime Coin - selling sweet anime art on the blockchain within a decentralized marketplace as users can finally rest safe in the knowledge that their favourite artists are being rewarded for their brilliance. Crypto Beak makes some bold claims in this week's Beak's Coin of the Week in a desperate attempt to outperform the Ken Index. Will he achieve his dream? Burns unit is welcomed back as Crypto Weekly receives some prime hate material and a deflated Horse Watch brings us to a close. All this and more in Episode 13 of Crypto Weekly!
