Does anyone know if there are campaign finance laws that would prohibit an issuer from programmatically donating trading fees to a SuperPAC? With proper distance from a candidate, it seems like there is an obvious use case for a coin associated with a candidate (e.g., MAGA) to gain public acceptance by acting as a partial donation to the candidate's message. Is anyone building this (or is it illegal)?

SEC's crypto enforcement head resigned less than two weeks before SEC sued Consensys with another frivolous lawsuit, regurgitating claims soundly rejected in Coinbase case. Could be a coincidence, but I imagine SEC morale is at an all-time low. Expect to see more departures as Gensler triples down on failed strategy

People underestimate the likelihood of both presidential candidates running on pro-crypto policies to target the much-needed "young vote." Bullish. https://www.theblock.co/post/297504/biden-campaign-shifts-crypto-stance-engages-crypto-industry-presidential-elections-2024

Are there any other local folks who couldn't snag a Farcon ticket who are planning to get together during the convention? I'd much rather chill with some fellow rejects than FOMO at home.

On March 20, reports surfaced that the SEC is investigating the EF One week later, the EF proposed changing Ethereum’s issuance curve and is loudly shouted down by the community Seems like pretty compelling evidence that the EF doesn’t control the protocol. Coincidence or strategic lawyering? I think the latter

Seeing a lot of comparisons between sentencing for SBF (25 years) and Ross Ulbrecht (life w/o parole). Curious about this channel's thoughts on the matter. My potentially hot take is in the comments.

1/2 For those who believe that the SEC will deny the ETH spot ETF in May, what is your best guess as to the SEC’s justification for the denial? Personally, I don’t see a plausible justification. The SEC already approved ETH Futures ETFs, so I don’t see how they justify denying a spot ETF of the same product.

Anyone here know whether transaction wrappers to collect taxes would be feasible? As more economic activity moves onchain, the gov is bound to get more insistent about getting its cut. Would love to hear thoughts about how that might happen

Not looking good for Christian Horner. Ford CEO sent a letter to Red Bull Racing demanding information about the investigation and a “resolution we can all stand behind.” If RB isn’t telling their corporate partners anything, they probably don’t have anything good to say… Source: AP (see first comment)

Very interested in the “AI money” narrative that @eric.eth mentioned on the latest episode. Anyone seen any articles, blogs, threads, etc. fleshing out that narrative/thesis?
