It was a big week for the crypto after the inauguration of Donald Trump to a second term on Monday.
The White House has published a decree on digital assets, calling for a friendly approach to the crypto through the administration and the creation of a “stock of digital assets” (which may or may not be a Bitcoin strategic reserve ). NIK regulatory publishers of and Jesse Hamilton were everywhere in the news, as usual.
The SEC has withdrawn a controversial rule of cryptocptal, began a cryptographic working group led by Hester Peirce (alias “Crypto Mom”), and appointed convivial commissioner, Mark Uyeda, interim president.
Senator Cynthia Lummis, undoubtedly the most faithful friend of the crypto congress, was appointed to direct the new digital asset committee of the Senate banking committee, Hamilton reported.
We dissected the benefits of the same controversial (very) controversial abandoned by the Trump family on Monday’s oath. Tom Carreras’ reports on Monday showed that the richness in paper generated by these surprise tokens was, frankly, amazing, even absurd.
The same has always been a great success, encouraging deposits for ETF Memecoin, Helene Braun reported. Helene has also broken the story of how CME has disclosed information on XRP and Future ETF soil, which has flowed these tokens and weighed on the larger market.
Ross Ulbricht, who created Silk Road about 12 years ago, educating thousands of people on Bitcoin for the first time, freed himself after serving ten years in prison. His freedom was a key promise of the Trump team on the crypto. Sam Reynolds had the news.
And the news continued to come. In fact, it was difficult to remember a week when more important things happened in the crypto. In the midst of everything, the Ethereum community has strongly debated its future (in particular that of the Ethereum Foundation). Parikshit Mishra and Sam Kessler followed the story.
Stay listening for more great things that are happening next week.
