News Recap Synopsis and additional links found on the unchainedpodcast.com website:

Big news this week, as the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency gave US banks the authority to custody crypto. This definitely seems it can be attributed to the fact that the currency acting Comptroller is Brian Brooks, the former chief legal officer of Coinbase. It also marks a turnaround for the crypto industry and its relationship to banks, who have long shunned the industry, making it difficult for even VC-backed firms to find and maintain banking relationships. Meanwhile, as Ethereum 2.0 gets closer, an analysis finds out what will be needed to keep it secure, and as DeFi continues to take off, traders who love Bitcoin’s volatility have been turning their sights on DeFi tokens. Plus, we get some good analyses of the rise in automated market makers such as Uniswap, Curve and Balancer, and also a dissection of how an engineered attack was behind the MakerDAO liquidations that occurred for $0 on Black Thursday. Finally, find out everything about YFI.
