Journalist Kit Klarenberg will be joining Mnar Adley and Alan MacLeod of MintPress News for an interview to discuss the latest scandal in the cryptocurrency world.
The founder of the FTX exchange, Sam Bankman-Fried, will face charges for defrauding the users of his platform but Klarenberg has dug deeper and found a groundbreaking surveillance story involving a U.S. spy firm that has been able to track the identities of three billion smartphone users worldwide through their use of cryptocurrencies — something that advocates of blockchain technologies had previously believed was impossible.
