The Tokenizer - The uncertain status of NFT regulation

Interesting report published by the Tokenizer from March 2023. The main topic is, or course, NFT’s but the writers also raise the difference between NFT and securities, they approach the topic of related crimes and the regulatory treatment of NFT’s. Easy & fast read.

‎Acquired | Apple Podcasts

A podcast which on each episode the hosts (Ben Gilbert & David Rosenthal) talk about a certain company (e.g NFL, Amazon, Walmart, Meituan) pointing out the company’s backstories and their “playbook” with tips that made them as successful as they are today. It’s more of an informative podcast, so nothing related to stocks investment advices.
