CT Weekly Review - Feb 13th 2022
Another week goes by in crypto and i age what feels like a year. Market moving up a bit this week, Bitfinex hack story, more great memes, lots of new NFTs and the usual drama on the timeline now that price isn't in uponly mode. I've ditched a couple of sections this week because i didn't have anything to put in them but i doubt you'll even notice. The most important sections are getting bigger though (memes) which is what i think the focus will always be on the most (yes i love the memes).
Inversebrah of the week
Yet again i forgot to bookmark some good Iversebrah's so was forced to start scrolling the little shids page, but, luckily for me, one of the first tweets i see is perfect, saving me what would have likely been an hour of scrolling

Market overview
I think this weeks market overview should come from a cat, so go watch Jim's stream, it's really good (funny as well as informative, we like the cat).

And if you're too lazy to go watch the stream, then here's a clip for you to watch from a few weeks back to give you a flavour :)

NFTs
Let's talk about whitelists this week, and what better way to do so than with an excellent meme by @ashrobinqt, this clip sums it up perfectly right now

Hacks
I'm sure you've heard of the Bitfinex hack story by now, but if you haven't, then this thread is a great read. Truly, what a story, only in crypto!
What do:

• $4 billion in missing $BTC
• Female rapper RAZZLEKHAN
• Forbes magazine
• the US Department of Justice
Have in common?
A thread on the 2016 Bitfinex hack, its resolution, and the implications.
The strangest crypto story of the year (so far, at least):

How can we possibly top the 'Hacks' section next week is beyond me, surely can't be done, but never say never in crypto. Some really great memes this week, the trading clip by @jomaoppa had me crying, i honestly thought it was a serious trading ad or something. Gary's interview on CNBC produced some great memes, i don't think that's the last of his smirk expression we've seen on the timeline, and, the whitelist NFT memes poking fun at the ridiculous lengths you have to go to now to get on a whitelist, love it! Not got much else to say that hasn't already been said in all the tweets shown above, so going to end it here, thanks for reading and see you next week :)
