#blockchain8 — Public Fediverse posts

GOP Majority Whip #TomEmmer, the man who wrote angry letters to the #SEC demanding that they stop bothering an innovative company like #FTX back in 2022, believes that the US government will be buying 1 million bitcoins for a price equivalent to 10-20% of the US defense budget for the “#StrategicBitcoinReserve” before the end of this session of Congress.

Here he is kissing Sam Bankman-Fried's ass on the floor of the US #Congress a few years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpIPlb7mYTE

oh look #BradGarlinghouse, another one of the 2024 election's megadonors, had (some of the) securities fraud charges against his company #Ripple dropped (they were charged with selling unregistered securities in the form of their token #XRP - the same XRP token that Trump wants to put in the “Strategic Crypto Reserve”).

i assume the rest of the charges (the ones they were convicted of) will be dropped soon enough.

@dangillmor ro khanna is a member of the #Blockchain8 and has always been in the pocket of #TheNerdReich. same deal when you hear Marc Andreessen et al. wax poetic about #RitchieTorres.

Dear Allysia Finley of the #WSJ's Font of Kookbabble:

You recently wrote back to back columns. One of them is about the SEC failing to regulate #FTX.

The other one calls #SenatorPatToomey / #PatToomey "a free-market champ."

Toomey was also a champ of SEC deregulating "non-banks" like #FTXScam / #FTX.

Also nowhere in your attempt to shill crypto by shifting blame onto #GaryGensler is it mentioned that the shameful #Blockchain8 wrote a letter urging SEC to stop investigating the #FTXScam.
