Show sample for 11/22/22: BLACKMAIL FRIDAY W/ DARCY WEIR

Last Friday it was announced that a 12-week pilot program will be implemented to test various banks’ utilization of digital dollar tokens. Their focus will be to quantify the impact of these tokens; specifically, how their presence “in a common database can help speed up payments." The timing is interesting when you consider the FTX scandal has brought consumer confidence in the blockchain to an all-time low. In the aftermath of the collapse of the cryptocurrency exchange, new questions are being raised surrounding powerful corporate and political connections from crypto partnerships. Tonight on Ground Zero, Clyde Lewis talks with filmmaker, Darcy Weir about BLACKMAIL FRIDAY. https://aftermath.media/podcast/11-22-22-blackmail-friday-w-darcy-weir/ In order to access Ground Zero's exclusive digital library which includes webinars, archived shows/podcasts, research groups, videos, documents, and more, you must sign up at aftermath.media.
