The focus of this podcast is wallets—the things you keep your cash in and also the things you keep your cryptocurrencies in “because you don’t want to keep it on the exchanges,” Joel says. He and Travis also talk about Satoshi Nakamoto’s original manifesto that got the whole Bitcoin thing rolling, and as always they give their response to recent market movements.
But first: Travis declares that he and Joel are now billionaires.
They each have more than a billion Badcoins. After talking to Michael Taggart at Bitshares, a platform that helps others to launch their own cryptocurrencies, Joel and Travis decided to create their own coin. They put about ten billion in circulation but rather than deal with the SEC and launch an ICO, they declare that they’re giving the coin away. It’s partly intended to be a reward for sharing the podcast and it might be an asset that could be exchanged for advertising or shout-outs from the podcast but mostly it’s an educational tool. Joel describes it as Monopoly money that listeners can use to practice trading without spending more than pennies. Don’t expect it to make you rich—or for it to make Joel and Travis dollar billionaires. In fact, don’t expect to do much with it at all. Just have fun with it, and stay bad.
As card-carrying Bad Cryptopians, we like to make waves in the blockchain world. So does Sasha Ivanov, the CEO of Waves Platform, an open-source blockchain platform that allows anyone to make their own cryptocurrency token. For example, there may or may not be a JoelCoin.
We also hear from Satoshi Nakamoto as well as questions from listeners. Surfing the tastiest waves in all of the Republic, Travis and I are here to share a slice of virtual pizza and the latest crypto yumminess in episode #109 of The Bad Crypto Podcast.
A physicist by education, Sasha Ivanov has been involved in Internet payment systems software development and neural network prediction software for financial markets. After the emergence of blockchain technology he launched the first instant cryptocurrency exchange coinomat.com, the first fiat blockchain token coinoUSD, and the first tradable cryptocurrency index coinoindex.com Currently works as Founder & CEO @ Waves Platform Adviser to Bankex Graduated from Moscow State University with a bachelors in Physics.

Guys you know about ZILLA the new ICO marketplace app. You can browse ICOs, upvote or downvote them so the good ones rise to the top. If you like an ICO, you will be able to participate using various tokens and credit card with 1 click.
Unlike many ICOs, the ZILLA team believes in actually shipping products, so they are releasing the beta app which should be in the Apple App Store in a few days. They are still working on the wallet functionality so you won’t be able to participate directly from the app YET but this is just to give you a feel for how the app will work when it’s fully baked. Check it out at ZLA.io/bad
Right now, the entire crypto space is full of rapidly expanding companies, and drowning in user requests. This month’s sponsor STAFFVIRTUAL knows that whenever a company grows fast the hardest thing to keep up with is customer support.

STAFFVIRTUAL has been instrumental in cryptocoin pre-sales, brand awareness, and customer support. Make the most of your ICO by thinking of both your launch and long-term customer support needs. http://staffvirtual.com
