Episode notes

On today's CoinMarketRecap with Connor Sephton, Coinbase suffers a $1.1 billion loss — but says things are never as bad as they seem. Ethereum's move to a Proof-of-Stake blockchain gets a big boost as Tether and USD Coin announce they're supporting the merge. A Tornado Cash user trolls the U.S. government by sending small amounts of Ether to A-list celebrities. And Robinhood agrees to pay $9.9 million to users who are suing the company over repeated outages. You can follow us on Twitter — @ConnorSephton and @CoinMarketCap.
