"A cryptocurrency firm run by the billionaire Winklevoss twins was facing a punishing federal lawsuit. After Donald J. Trump returned to the White House, the Securities and Exchange Commission moved to freeze the case.

The S.E.C. had also sued Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange, but then dropped the case altogether under the new administration.

And after a yearslong legal fight with Ripple Labs, the new S.E.C. tried to reduce a court-ordered penalty against the crypto firm, seeking to soften the blow of the punishment.

The agency’s pullback from these cases illustrated a wide-ranging transformation in the federal government’s treatment of the crypto industry during President Trump’s second term, a New York Times investigation has found.

It is unheard-of for the agency to retreat from a swath of lawsuits against a single industry. And yet, The Times found that the S.E.C. had eased up on more than 60 percent of the crypto cases that were ongoing when Mr. Trump returned to the White House, moving to pause litigation, lessen penalties or outright dismiss the cases.

The dismissals were particularly unusual, The Times found. Under Mr. Trump, S.E.C. dismissals came at a far higher rate for crypto firms than other cases.

And although the particulars of the crypto lawsuits differed, many of these firms had something in common: financial ties to Mr. Trump, the self-described crypto president."

Cash back credit cards are soooo passe' - its all about the Crypto baby!

Crypto exchange Gemini, (set to go public in June, and founded by the Winklevoss twins), is rolling out an XRP edition credit card in collaboration with Ripple Labs. The card offers users crypto rewards of up to 4% in XRP for charges for EV charging and rideshare purchases, 3% on dining, 2% on groceries and 1% on other transactions. https://d3bl6d04.eu1.hubspotlinks.com/Ctc/I9+113/d3bL6D04/VXb27m7PpVN7VFBlPb4xtdVYW4xGMq_5BGmkBN5NMMl25kBVzW5BWr2F6lZ3n-W2bXmY862HDMwW53bTBG4XXCsPVvQCj98xs1k-VXjXC76vvwS6W86n6ZD8C87ZHW7My4r05W1nfZVhNs699jfkjkV9nXQw3fL9XgW6f-6zq8QcHjyW5lp-qF2HHzYrW7tVgxr8NWXDZW7N20nt3XmfXrW1FXpx31m4S34W34ZyRF2DZRcnW43lp4n7VzzDFW7SY_5g1ngkySW4cKWWG6b_ylvW94NHmY1_Z0-zW6vYDGk5Vgg_9W7K26517nz0c7W39J6NS92Q2r7W2sqW6G8rRlqLW5mlsMV4SSQFcMy5CtXn6j_qW5xx9x66mxY9TW8T9V7Q8zYj3_W6ZMKPf18pMrZW69Z1L44XTjNXVKBSWT2zx2cVVPYKp84yDVZJW1Vt6xc7C5t3fW57gcfP7RcCZjW3ZwYrt52xSsBVmKk0_1G5-G6f7LFKfP04 #Crypto #CryptoCurrencies #XRP #RippleLabs #CreditCards #CashBack #Gemini #BlockChain #IPO #DigitalAssets #Tokens
