Ledger Cast Pauses to Honor Crypto OG Ben, aka Actual Advice BTC

Ledger Cast, the cryptocurrency trading and blockchain podcast hosted by Brian Krogsgard and Josh Olszewicz, has released an episode dedicated to Ben, a long-time crypto participant known online as Actual Advice BTC. The hosts say Ben died this week at a young age, and the episode serves as a tribute to a figure the show's audience will recognize.

The main conversation covers familiar ground for the show: bitcoin, altcoins and the wider blockchain ecosystem. Krogsgard also talks through his own staking experience on the Cosmos network, a hands-on account of earning rewards by locking up tokens that many holders find confusing. The episode title, "Death, Taxes, and Doge," riffs on the old saying about life's certainties, but the episode description does not detail how the hosts handle each theme.

Olszewicz, who writes for Brave New Coin and runs a YouTube channel, joins Krogsgard for the discussion. Episodes are available through iTunes, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Stitcher, YouTube and RSS.

The hosts repeat a standard caveat that the show is educational and should not be taken as investment advice. Listeners should do their own research before buying any asset discussed on the program.
