Today @Uniswap Labs received a Wells notice from the SEC.

I’m not surprised. Just annoyed, disappointed, and ready to fight.

I am confident that the products we offer are legal and that our work is on the right side of history. But it’s been clear for a while that rather than working to create clear, informed rules, the SEC has decided to focus on attacking long-time good actors like Uniswap and Coinbase. All while letting bad actors like FTX slip by.

When I first set out to build Uniswap, the goal wasn’t to reimagine finance.

It was an experiment in radically decentralized, fully automated onchain markets. I didn’t know if it would work or if anyone would use it.

Fast forward to today, the Uniswap Protocol has processed over $2 trillion in volume. Many thousands of teams and developers have forked our code or built on top of it. We built entirely new financial infrastructure that is transparent, fair, secure, and accessible powering an entire industry.

The team at @Uniswap did all of this in the US from our office in New York City.

People often ask me why we stay in the US and my answer is simple: I believe that blockchain is incredibly powerful technology. Like the Internet, it’s here to stay. So someone needs to figure it out, and it might as well be us.

And that when you build technology that improves people’s lives – you don’t need to hide.

The @SEC’s mission is “protecting investors, maintaining fair, orderly, and efficient markets, and facilitating capital formation.” This is a noble mission. I would argue @Uniswap does a far better job of this today than the SEC.

Yes, I'm frustrated that the SEC seems to be more concerned with protecting opaque systems than protecting consumers. And that we'll have to fight a US government agency to protect our company and our industry.

This fight will take years, may go all the way to the Supreme Court, and the future of financial technology and our industry hangs in the balance. If we stand together we can win.

I think freedom is worth fighting for. I think DeFi is worth fighting for.

And of course, we won’t stop shipping. Stay tuned

Remember that at some point in this bull market, when the ETH ETF is listed and retail + institutions are FOMO'ing, ETH will be burning record amounts of supply, and record amounts of ETH will be locked for staking.

That is an epic supply/demand shock in the making...

This bill is a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

What it would actually mean is that if you disagree with the other parent about sterilizing your child, you lose custody.

Utter madness!

[Tomi Lahren @TomiLahren]

Weird because for 2 years YOU told us

We couldn’t go outside
We had to face diaper
We had to jab and experimental vax
We couldn’t go to work
We couldn’t gather for holidays, weddings, funerals, graduations etc

We don’t want kids reading porn. That’s it. You wouldn’t know freedom if it bit you in the ass

[Dr. Sydney Watson @SydneyLWatson]

So, a woman can be hospitalized after being sexually abused by a man who says he's a woman…

Seek help for that abuse…

And... then be reported to police for "misgendering" a "non-binary" patient while in hospital for said abuse.

You can't make this up.

Pfizer and Moderna Have Admitted in Federal Filings That Their mRNA Injections are Gene Therapy

Attorney @RenzTom: "So if you're wondering why so many side effects are possible, it's because it's an untested category of drug ... They don't know what's gonna happen."

[Audra Worlow 🇺🇸 @audrawrongspeak]

Recently I was asked the question “Why do you care?” “Just Let People Live their Lives!”

So I’m going to tell you why I care.

I have a daughter, who is the absolute light of my life.

I do not want my daughter taught, that her physical safety is less important than someone’s feelings.

Or that “being kind” is more important than honesty or fairness.

Or that her sense of self is dependent on the affirmation/approval of others.

Or that lifetime happiness can be found in altering one’s appearance.

Or that the human rights of one group of people are more important than another’s.

Or that certain types of sexual attraction can be bigoted.

Or taught actual pseudoscientific lies that fly in the very face of biology.

In short, your values are not my values.

And when you decide to leave Women and Children alone, I’ll leave you alone.

Same crime. One got prison time and the other got a visit from the Vice President

[Riley Gaines @Riley_Gaines_]

Imagine if the roles were reversed and a group of white, conservatives ambushed someone within the LGBTQ community, physically assaulted them, and held them for ransom for 3 hrs...

There would be arrests and repercussions for the perpetrators and administration who allowed this.

[Rob Schneider 🇺🇸 @RobSchneider]

Women are under attack in this crusade. But of course the Biden Administration will stay silent about protecting WOMEN’S RIGHTS!
Another example of,If you have no real ideas to defend, just shout down or punch your (perceived)enemies.

[Riley Gaines @Riley_Gaines_]

The prisoners are running the asylum at SFSU...I was ambushed and physically hit twice by a man. This is proof that women need sex-protected spaces.

Still only further assures me I'm doing something right. When they want you silent, speak louder. 🗣️

[Sage Steele @sagesteele]

Are there any other women with public platforms willing to stand up for @Riley_Gaines_ & the millions of female athletes?? Or do we only stand up for those who fit certain narratives??

Q: Isn’t it a fact that the president’s proposed budget proposes $4.7 trillion in new taxes?

Sec. Yellen: It does propose significant additional taxes, yes.

Q: $4.7 TRILLION?

Sec. Yellen: Something like that, yes.

So they’re talking about disabling the internet in Brazil in response to the protests. That’s insane.
