Given the track record, it takes BIG Cajones to place a bet based on what this dude says is going to happen.

POTUS blurts out that CRTC working on making Hyperliquid available in the USA.

No one seems to know anything about what approvals are required, timeline, filing date, registration, or approval details. Good luck! https://www.cnbc.com/2026/08/19/call-buying-bonanza-around-trumps-hyperliquid-comments-includes-eyebrow-raising-trades.html #Crypto #Cryptocurrencies #BlockChain #HYPE #CFTC #Hyperliquid #PerpetualFutures #Futures #Trading #Investing #DigitalToken #CryptoAssets #Regulations #POTUS #FinancialMarkets

Are Crypto "assets" securities or not? SEC cracks the seal on new definitions - sort of.

The SEC has published "interpretive guidance" which is not a formal new rule classifying crypto assets.

The SEC indicates that a digital asset becomes a security when its issuer offers it as an investment in a common enterprise that comes with promises of profits based on the management's efforts.

Such an investment contract ends, though, when "either the issuer has fulfilled its representations or promises or the issuer has failed to satisfy its representations or promises," at which point the investment would not regulated as a security anymore.

The SEC indicates it is not dealing with related stuff like airdrops, protocol staking and protocol mining.

SEC indicates it is planning to launch a formal rule making process "in a week or two". https://www.coindesk.com/policy/2026/03/17/u-s-sec-issues-first-ever-definitions-for-what-crypto-assets-are-securities

DL the "Interpretative Guidance" here: https://www.sec.gov/files/rules/interp/2026/33-11412.pdf #SEC #Crypto #CryptoAssets #Securities #CryptoMArkets #CryptoTrading #DigitalAssets

The #SEC issued new #guidance stating that most #cryptoassets are not securities, including staking, airdrops, and Bitcoin mining. The guidance provides clarity on asset classification, dividing them into digital commodities, collectibles, tools, stablecoins, and securities. https://decrypt.co/361446/sec-most-crypto-assets-not-securities-staking-airdrops-bitcoin-mining?eicker.news #tech #media #news

At this point, with the laws as they are, #CryptoCurrency doesn't legally exist, only speculative #CryptoAssets

Yowzers! New analysis indicates on-chain balances linked to criminal activity currently exceeds $75B. Bitcoin holds ~ 75% of total illicit entity balances and not surprising stablecoins and ether have grown substantially.

This situation presents law enforcement with an unprecedented opportunity: billions of dollars in illicit proceeds are sitting on public blockchains, and theoretically can be seized if authorities can coordinate action! https://www.chainalysis.com/blog/landscape-of-seizable-crypto-assets-2025/ #Crypto #CryptoCurrencies #IllicitActivity #CryptoAssets #CriminalActivities #BlockChain #DigitalAssets #CryptoCrime #MoneyLaundering #BTC #ETH #ShadowEconomy #StableCoins
