Three days into a war that has already obliterated Iran's navy, far more Americans have lost their lives due to @NYCMayor woke winter policies than @realDonaldTrump military action.

Imagine that. Two guys who worked for an Administration that printed infinite dollars, devalued the currency and spiked inflation have determined that "crypto is pointless."

While most founders sell, I’ve acquired an additional >2% of the total $T supply. Here’s why I’m doubling down on the work we’re doing at @TheTNetwork 👇

Taxing unrealized gains would mean Americans would owe taxes on the appreciation of their home every year. This would bankrupt the average family. Horrible idea that is only put forward by people preying on the fear of those who don’t understand economics or finance.

The SEC asked for $2B, and the Court reduced their demand by ~94% recognizing that they had overplayed their hand. We respect the Court’s decision and have clarity to continue growing our company. This is a victory for Ripple, the industry and the rule of law. The SEC’s headwinds against the whole of the XRP community are gone.

Covered a lot of ground with @MorningsMaria today – the BTC halving, my predictions for the crypto market by EOY, how pro-innovation policies in the US will prevail (step 1 - replace the SEC leadership and step 2 - Elizabeth Warren’s staff should read some actual facts on crypto instead of spewing constant misinformation), and why Ripple is launching a USD-backed stablecoin on the XRPL and ETH this year.

Ripple, Brad Garlinghouse on Fox this morning, talking stable coins and pushing for US regulators to step up.

Gensler’s SEC has become unhinged. This will not, and should not, go unnoticed in an election year, as the SEC singlehandedly thinks it’s above the law, dragging the US further behind other G20 countries.
Brad Garlinghouse@bgarlinghouse

Gensler’s SEC has repeatedly acted outside the law – not going unnoticed by Judges admonishing the agency for a "gross abuse of the power entrusted to it by Congress" (DEBT Box case) and for acting without "faithful allegiance to the law" (Ripple case). Let’s not also forget Gensler’s lack of attention to SBFraud.

Crypto lawyer @JohnEDeaton1 is challenging @SenWarren in Massachusetts. She is crypto's leading opponent on Capitol Hill and he is one of it's fiercest defenders. Should be an interesting November.
Media Globe@TheMediaGlobe

Odd that @jaycaspiankang omitted @SenWarren from his comprehensive @NewYorker story on academics who benefited from a forged Native American identity. She is the best known "pretendian" - hard to imagine @JohnEDeaton1 will show similar deference. themediaglobe.com/media-criticis…

Ever wonder why our paychecks typically come twice a month or bi-weekly, in some cases weekly? In Web3 context, this seems quite anachronistic. And startups like @Superfluid_HQ are showing that it is, allowing payments that flow continuously across the economy at the speed of the internet. modernconsensus.com/people/innovat…

Judge Keeps CZ in U.S. Pending Review. U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington issued a stay after prosecutors argued that “should Mr. Zhao decide not to return to the United States to face an uncertain sentence, there is no reason to believe that the UAE would hand him over”. modernconsensus.com/people/innovat…

With the recent string of cases in which U.S. courts have reprimanded Gary Gensler and the Securities Exchange Commission – including a D.C. appeals court calling its refusal to approve a Bitcoin ETF “arbitrary and capricious” – and Tuesday’s multibillion dollar Binance bombshell, the failure of Congress to do its job in providing clarity on crypto could not be more overdue, glaring or costly to digital asset holders, corporations, developers and taxpayers. modernconsensus.com/cryptocurrenci…
