There are three pending proposals. The earliest one was also from you, which the treasury did not have enough to support at the time and you hadn't posted a decision on whether to withdraw the proposal or change the amount. Then there is another proposal from someone else after that, which could also affect the treasury status even if your first proposal is cancelled. How about you merge your two proposals and post this one in the thread of the first proposal, and it can be treated as a replacement and votes on first?

Tezos (XTZ) is referenced among examples of “digital commodities” in a recent U.S. SEC release. The document outlines how certain crypto assets may be viewed in the context of functional, decentralized systems.

I'm an expert in OpenSea delays, AMA
dfinzer.eth | opensea@dfinzer

an update on $SEA. the team has been building at full speed, and the foundation had planned to kick off the first steps as part of our march 30th event. but @openseafdn is pushing back the timeline. a delay is a delay. i’m not going to dress it up, and i know how it lands. the reality is that market conditions are challenging across crypto right now, and $SEA only launches once. @openseafdn could force the original date, or we could ensure every piece is in place and make this moment what this community deserves. we gave a tremendous amount of thought to how to do right here. I’m thankful to @HollanderAdam for bringing the community’s voice into every conversation. we’ll be doing the following: no more waves: the current rewards wave will be our last. optional fee refund: recognizing that we originally committed to a Q1 date, we’re offering refunds of the platform fees we retained while participating in the rewards waves (3 - 6) that followed our timing announcement. if you like, you can receive a refund of those fees, which when combined with treasure chest prizes, essentially means all of your trading during that period was on us. if you opt for a refund, the Treasures you were awarded during these waves will be removed from your account. details on this process will follow. honoring existing Treasures: for Treasures you continue to hold, our prior commitment stands: they will be meaningfully considered by the Foundation at TGE. this is independent from allocations for historical activity. 0% fees for 60 days: starting on march 31st, opensea will reduce our own token trading fees to 0%. we want to make it a no-brainer for everyone to experience our new platform: cross-chain token trading, mobile app, perps and more. after this 60 day period, we will put a new system in place that makes fees significantly more competitive for anyone trading consistently on opensea. product updates: while we’re postponing our march 30th event, we’ll host a separate one in the coming months focused on product updates. it’s been incredible to see the early responses to our mobile app, and we can’t wait to get it into more people’s hands. so if not now, wen? when we announced last year, it was too early. that created unnecessary uncertainty and reactivity. so when the Foundation sets a new timeline, it will be deliberate and specific. here’s why i’m confident that’s the right move: i’ve been building opensea for almost a decade. when this started, we were two people and the only thing you could trade on OS was cryptokitties. i’ve watched this space go from a niche curiosity to billions in volume to where we are today. the thing that’s carried us through every cycle was a willingness to make hard calls when it mattered. when our market crashed, we rebuilt from zero: an entirely new stack, a new product, and a new team culture. that hurt in the short term. but today OS2 is undeniably the strongest marketplace offering, and it’s the foundation everything sits on. we have huge ambitions as a company, and we’re here for the long game. making all of non-custodial crypto delightful on mobile is just the beginning. that means we have to set a very high bar for everything we do, and it’s why i’m so protective of delivering a launch that’s worthy of this community and everything we’re putting into this.

RYAN SΞAN ADAMS - rsa.eth 🦄@RyanSAdams

THEY DID IT. The SEC and CFTC just dropped a landmark document that officially classifies crypto assets. They're actually telling us which crypto assets are securities and which ones aren't - by name! THIS IS SOMETHING GENSLER REFUSED TO DO (he focused on prosecuting crypto out of existence) This rule doc gives crypto many of the benefits of the clarity bill - it lifts us out of the gray market - it gives every asset a path. It's almost like the Clarity act just passed by way of regulator. (of course, the actual clarity act will harden all this into legislation and make it irreversible in the event we get another Gensler, we still want it) This rule says there's 5 categories for crypto assets: 1) Digital Commodities - assets tied to a functional, decentralized crypto system (e.g., BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP, ADA, DOGE). Not securities. (yes, they name them on page 14) 2) Digital Collectibles - NFTs, meme coins, artwork tokens, in-game items. Not securities (fractionalized collectibles may be an exception). 3) Digital Tools - membership tokens, credentials, domain names (e.g., ENS). Not securities. 4) Stablecoins - payment stablecoins under the GENIUS Act are not securities. Other stablecoins, it depends. 5) Digital Securities - tokenized versions of traditional securities. Like tokenized stocks. Always securities. Amazing! This makes so much sense I can't believe it's coming from a regulator. No more enforcement threats to Ethereum developers and crypto exchanges. How about the Howey test? More common sense! If an issuer makes specific promises of managerial efforts from which buyers expect profits, the offering is a security until those promises are fulfilled. Then it's a commodity. The asset itself was never the security, the deal around it was. (E.g. XRP was a security pre launch, became a commodity after). How about stuff like staking and mining? Mining? Not a securities transaction. Staking? Also not a securities transaction, that includes custodial and liquid staking even with LSTs! How about wrapping BTC? Not a securities transaction. Airdrops? NOT SECURITIES. NO MORE GEO BANS PROTECTING AMERICANS from free airdrops. Remember this is a joint doc from the SEC and CFTC, They're actually cooperating on this, no internal strife, this is binding to both. SEC regulates $80-100 trillion assets CFTC regulates $5-10 trillion assets Both of the world's largest capital markets are showing us that crypto assets are here to stay and they're welcome alongside traditional assets. Every country will follow. This is the biggest move toward legitimacy I've seen in all my time in crypto. Maybe bigger than the genius act since is covers all crypto assets. Well done @MichaelSelig and @SECPaulSAtkins. And especially well done to the indefatigable @HesterPeirce. Her fingerprints are all over this, couldn't have happened without her eight years of principles-based curiosity.

(XTZ) Tezos
LimitLess@NoAlphaLimits

🚨🚨🚨 $4.7 TRILLION. THAT'S HOW MUCH MONEY JUST GOT UNLOCKED IN ONE ANNOUNCEMENT. The SEC just formally classified 16 crypto assets as DIGITAL COMMODITIES — not securities. Not unregistered investments. Not illegal offerings. COMMODITIES. Like gold. Like oil. Like silver. $XRP, $ETH, $SOL, $ADA, $DOGE, $AVAX, $APT, $BCH, $HBAR, $ALGO, $LTC, $DOT, $SHIB, $XLM, $XTZ, $LINK The combined market cap of these 16 assets? Over $1.8 TRILLION. The total capital waiting on the sidelines for regulatory clarity? An estimated $2.9 TRILLION from institutions alone. Let that sink in. The same SEC that spent $400M+ of YOUR tax money suing Coinbase, Kraken, and Ripple for listing "unregistered securities" — just stood on stage and said those EXACT tokens were NEVER securities. 💀 SEC Chair Paul Atkins at the DC Blockchain Summit: "Most crypto assets are NOT securities." The SAME agency. The OPPOSITE conclusion. 💀 SEC + CFTC issued JOINT guidance — first time EVER both regulators aligned on crypto 💀 New 5-category token taxonomy: Digital Commodities, Digital Collectibles, Digital Tools, Stablecoins, Digital Securities 💀 Staking — NOT a security. Airdrops — NOT a security. Mining — NOT a security 💀 The industry begged for this for TEN YEARS. Ten years of lawsuits, destroyed companies, and "regulation by intimidation." Killed. In ONE announcement. ⚠️ Gary Gensler sued Coinbase for listing $SOL. Paul Atkins just called it a commodity. That's not a policy shift — that's a COMPLETE reversal. ⚠️ Ripple fought the SEC for 4 YEARS over $XRP. The SEC just classified it as a commodity. Four years of legal hell — for NOTHING. ⚠️ The SEC destroyed billions in market value, bankrupted projects, and froze funds — for tokens they NOW admit were never under their jurisdiction. Do you understand what this means? The media is showing you: "SEC classifies crypto." They're NOT showing you the $4.7 TRILLION tsunami that's about to hit. Here's what happens next — step by step: STEP 1 — EVERY ACTIVE SEC LAWSUIT DIES → Coinbase, Kraken, every exchange sued for "unregistered securities" → The legal basis for those cases just EVAPORATED overnight STEP 2 — ETF FLOODGATES OPEN → Commodity = clear path to spot ETFs → $SOL ETF. $XRP ETF. $ADA ETF. $AVAX ETF → BlackRock, Fidelity, Grayscale filing RIGHT NOW → $2.9 TRILLION in institutional money just got a GREEN LIGHT STEP 3 — EXCHANGES UNCHAINED → US exchanges list freely. No more SEC fear → More pairs. More liquidity. Tighter spreads → Coinbase and Kraken just became 10x more powerful STEP 4 — WALL STREET ENTERS → Goldman, JPMorgan, Morgan Stanley — all CLEAR to offer crypto → Banks, hedge funds, pension funds can touch these assets → Custody solutions expand OVERNIGHT STEP 5 — STAKING UNLOCKED → US exchanges can offer staking rewards again → Coinbase alone has BILLIONS in staked assets ready to go live STEP 6 — GLOBAL DOMINO → EU, UK, Asia regulators will follow → The US just set the GLOBAL standard for crypto classification STEP 7 — THE CATCH → This is SEC interpretation — NOT law → A future SEC chair could REVERSE everything → Senate Chair Tim Scott: CLARITY Act draft coming THIS WEEK → Congress passes it = PERMANENT. Congress doesn't = one appointment can burn it down If the SEC always believed these were commodities, why did they spend 3 years suing everyone who listed them? Why did they destroy companies, drain founders, and freeze billions — for tokens they NOW say were never securities? Complete silence. The biggest regulatory unlock in crypto history just happened. And most people won't realize it until the ETFs are approved, the institutions have already bought in, and the prices have already moved. The next 30 days determine whether this is permanent — or just a window. Prepare accordingly. 🚨🚨🚨 They don't want you seeing this. Follow + RT to beat the algorithm. 🚨

I’m not a big fan of toxic positivity. Pretending everything is great when it clearly isn’t helps no one. Problems should be talked about openly. But constant complaining without trying to change anything isn’t much better. After a while it often turns into empty engagement seeking. The same criticism gets repeated again and again, but nothing actually moves forward. Critique is important. It helps a space grow. But critique only becomes meaningful when it leads somewhere. When it pushes people to build, organize, support alternatives, or try a different way of doing things. If you don’t like how something works, build the counterpart. Create the alternative. Support the people who are already trying to do it differently. Real change usually comes from people who start building something better, not the ones complaining constantly.
