Your attention is a valuable resource.

Some people try to change your mind on a topic. But the easier method is to convince you to re-arrange your attention without changing your mind on any topic. Just get you to hyper-focus on one, and de-emphasize another.

BREAKING: 30% chance Clarity Act becomes law this year — an all-time low.

日本銀行は身動きが取れず、

日本銀行は最悪のシナリオについて議論した。

ドルの暴落、あるいは基軸通貨としての地位の喪失は、世界恐慌をはるかに凌駕する事態を引き起こす可能性がある。

日本と米国は、現在の体制を何としても守ろうとするだろう。

これから新たな秩序が生まれるかもしれないが、その移行は苦痛を伴うものとなるだろう。

[Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent @SecScottBessent]

More than a year ago, the House passed the Clarity Act.

There’s been progress since — thousands of hours of bipartisan negotiations took place at the staff and Member levels. The Senate Committees on Banking and Agriculture advanced their respective titles. And Senate Republicans produced a floor-ready product that, as I type this, is waiting for a vote.

It’s disappointing — but not surprising — that Senate Democrats are choosing politics on the cusp of a major victory for American leadership. Find another instance in history where Congress, when given the choice, opted to push an industry out of the United States rather than smartly regulate it. American Exceptionalism was once a bipartisan goal; if Clarity fails, I have serious doubts.

These same Democrats — many of whom have taken millions of dollars from the crypto industry — proclaim that Clarity lacks safeguards for consumers and falls short in countering illicit finance. Nothing could be further from the truth. Titles II and III materially uplift regulatory and compliance obligations for digital asset intermediaries, placing them on similar footing with traditional financial institutions. The Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act — which Washington lobbyists have spun up as a boogeyman for certain groups of prosecutors and law enforcement — does nothing other than codify longstanding Treasury Department policy that’s remained consistent across Administrations: non-custodial builders and developers are not, and have never been, subject to registration obligations under the Bank Secrecy Act. And at this point, major law enforcement trades that once opposed the bill, including the Fraternal Order of Police, have now endorsed it.

The Senate needs to vote NOW on this landmark legislation. The truth is that Senate Democrats are afraid to advance the Clarity Act as they fear Senator Warren and the “Anti-Crypto Army” she once promised to build. In the days ahead, Leader Thune will put this theory to the test. Will Senate Democrats be on the side of American Exceptionalism, or will they opt to cede American leadership of a global industry for fear of the bespectacled squirrel’s Left flank?

America will lead or America won’t. It’s not more complicated than that. I believe Satoshi once said it best:

“If you don’t believe me or don’t get it, I don’t have time to try to convince you, sorry.”

[Franklin Templeton @FranklnTempletn]

Franklin Templeton supports passage of the CLARITY Act.

The bill would make clear how crypto is regulated. Investors would know what protections apply. Firms would know which regulators they answer to.

It’s time to provide the industry the clarity it needs.

Watching a memescope for 10 hours a day?

Moonscope watches the newly bonded tokens for you and pings you the second something is worth a look. No staring for 10 hours, no doomscrolling, no missing the launch while you blink.

The flow:
1. Set it, leave Moonscope open.
2. Listen, the alert is your only cue.
3. Verify, check the data and for KOLs
4. Move, if the data makes sense, you're in.

One trader ran it exactly like this the last 2 days:
$Rigby +192%
$Chad +31.2%
$Birdie +100%
$Ginger +100%

Get your time back in the trenches. ●●

$ETH: For the first time ever, I'm making Ethereum a serious part of my portfolio. In previous cycles, only around 10% of my BTC allocation went into ETH. Now I'm raising that to 20%! For every $4 USD that I invest into Bitcoin, $1 goes into ETH
