I am retiring the previous list name “Cryptocurrency in the news” because I think that fintech (financial technology) is a more accurate, all encompassing term for this space. There are other possible names like “dapps” (decentralized applications) however I prefer fintech because decentralization may not be what the market chooses as an end game.
