The British pound collapse and its impact on cryptocurrency: Watch the Market Report



On this week’s The Market Report show, Cointelegraph’s resident experts discuss why the British pound is at its all-time low and how that might impact the cryptocurrency market.

To kick things off, we break down the latest news in the markets this week:

Bitcoin gains 5% to reclaim $20K, eyes first ‘green’ September since 2016

A classic snap of sideways trading action sees Bitcoin’s (BTC) price aim higher, but concerns remain over what happens next. Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView followed BTC/USD as it added over 7% after the Sept. 26 close. Local highs of $20,344 appeared on Bitstamp before the pair began consolidating at around $20,200. Can Bitcoin achieve a green monthly close, and will the bulls be able to beat “Septembear?”

Is it possible for the general population to move to cryptocurrencies once it realizes that people’s savings and investments are being devalued more aggressively?

Charles Hoskinson and Ethereum dev get into a war of words post-Vasil upgrade

Charles Hoskinson, founder of Cardano and co-founder of Ethereum, got into a war of words with Ethereum developers on the implementation of the proof-of-stake consensus via the Ethereum Merge. Hoskinson is known for his hot takes on his former project, and the bad blood between the two communities is nothing new. However, with both blockchains undergoing key upgrades on their networks, the recent exchange between the two sides highlights the disconnect between blockchain communities.
