In the inaugural episode of TechCentral’s brand new technology show, TC|Daily, Sean Sanders, CEO of Cape Town-based cryptocurrency platform Revix, chats to host Duncan McLeod about the imminent “Merge” of the ethereum blockchain and what it means.
Sanders explains what the Merge is, how it will impact the blockchain and what it might mean for investors in the ether token. Could it even lead to the so-called “Flippening”, where ether overtakes bitcoin to become the most valuable crypto token by market cap?

- Crypto’s correlation with US technology stocks – will it last?;

- The Prudential Authority’s recent “practice note” to South African banks regarding cryptocurrency exchanges – how significant is it?;
- What’s happening when it comes to crypto regulation in South Africa?; and
