E18 • May 27, 2024 • 12 mins

In this episode, Roni discusses Marathon Digital Holdings' partnership with Kenya and its role in Bitcoin mining. She delves into the potential for Ethereum spot ETFs as a high-growth tech investment, explores Ethereum's price surge in comparison to other cryptocurrencies, and highlights its institutional recognition. The episode concludes with a look at Ethereum's upcoming Pectra upgrade.

Key Points

  • Marathon Digital Holdings signed an agreement with Kenya to develop green data centers and optimize renewable energy, potentially involving Bitcoin mining and attracting significant foreign investment to the Kenyan economy.
  • Spot Ethereum ETFs are anticipated to have substantial demand, although likely less than Bitcoin ETFs, with regulatory developments and Ethereum's price surge indicating growing recognition and institutional adoption of cryptocurrencies.
  • Ethereum's upcoming Pectra upgrade aims to enhance its virtual machine and user experience, with core developers replacing an existing improvement proposal with a more advanced one to facilitate smart contract wallet operations for transactions.
