Joe Grand had to hack open a crypto wallet with a lost password and millions of dollars trapped inside.I mean, I'm an equal opportunity hacker.
Eileen Ormsby had to figure out if this internet hitman that was threatening her was the real deal.
They started tracking me down and sending me emails saying, stop saying that we're a scam, we're the real thing.Merrill Goldberg had to encrypt secrets into sheet music to smuggle them across the Soviet border during the Cold War.
And then we were brought into a back room and had our first heavy duty interrogation.
And what did we get to do, Jordan?What did we get to do?We got to talk about it.That's because Hacked is a tech show about cybersecurity, internet grifters, people using tech to do weird, unexpected stuff.Sometimes we focus on one big story.
Sometimes we talk about a bunch of little stories.
Find Hacked wherever you get your shows.That's Hacked, a show about all the weird stuff people do with technology wherever you get your shows.
As many of you know, I have personal friendships with certain lawmakers and certain people who are now members of the Trump administration.
We hopefully will be able to have great dialogues with them in the coming months to put together some of this policy.
Breaking news, that was Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson confirming a crypto advisory role under Donald Trump.
And ADA, the token behind Cardano, has absolutely exploded off this news, at one point doubling, but right now settling with an 80% pump over four days. Now, Charles Hoskinson has confirmed plans to collaborate with the U.S.
government under Donald Trump and his new administration to help shape crypto legislation.
The goal is to create clear regulatory frameworks for the cryptocurrency industry, which has faced years of uncertainty and regulatory challenges after Operation Chokepoint 2.0.
Now, Charles said himself and the team he works with will work with lawmakers and the administration to get a bipartisan bill passed.
He highlighted how there is cooperation across party lines, pointing out the recent FIT 21 bill passed with over 60 Democrat votes, indicating a growing support for bipartisan legislation.
He later stated, this is the best opportunity we've ever had in this industry to get clarity, and that's why we're seeing such things as MasterCard potentially coming to Cardano.We do have a catalyst proposal by Moneta.
This is the team behind a stable coin on Cardano where they might incorporate MasterCard and ADA all together and this is the second such proposal we've seen.
We've also seen one from Revuto and they aim to bring Cardano and Cardano native tokens to debit cards like Mastercard that supports crypto.And you couple of that with some of the news I've been shouting from the rooftops for days.
I posted this four days ago where Cardano community is as strong as ever despite the price and now the price reflects that. and with BitcoinOS, which is going to closely integrate Cardano and Bitcoin.
And not only that, opening up over a trillion dollars for liquidity in Cardano's ecosystem, coupled with the Midnight Partner Chain, as well as retail around the corner.And if you need a proof for that, you look no further than Alex Becker.
Even he is tweeting bullishly for Cardano.And now it seems like Cardano has a real shot of passing its previous all-time high, which came in right above $3.
And looking at how much Cardano has to gain before it hits its previous all-time high, still has to do about a 5x.Now let's listen to Charles as he details his plan for 2025.
Second, a large part of my time in 2025 will also be devoted to the political process.I'm going to be spending quite a bit of time working with lawmakers in Washington, D.C.and quite a bit of time working with members of the administration
to help foster and facilitate with other key leaders in industry, the crypto policy.
So congratulations, Cardano holders, your patience has finally paid off.
