Russian sanctions, Bitcoin avoids ban in Europe, Vitalik Buterin reveals all, Bored Apes buy CryptoPunks

On this week's CoinMarketRecap podcast with Connor Sephton, the U.S. Federal Reserve has increased interest rates for the first time in four years… but what does this mean for Bitcoin?

And Molly Jane Zuckerman is here with a look at the rest of this week's crypto news — as Europe narrowly avoids a de facto ban on Bitcoin, Vitalik Buterin gives a tell-all interview to TIME Magazine, and the company behind Bored Ape Yacht Club acquires the rights to CryptoPunks in a shock deal.
