Now he IS the US government's economic policy.

I dont understand these takes
this is how business works in general?
there are a very large amount of failures as people experiment with ideas which lead to a small % of the total cohort becoming successful outcomes
this is the natural evolution of any new asset class. So i 100% disagree that it is a failed asset class. Such a lazy take
I might agree w/ it if we had nothing to point to as successful outcomes but this couldnt be further from the truth
On a positive note, the project quality of protocols being released is much higher than few years ago
I think we finally are shaping an industry that can be sustainable
Now more than ever you want to be looking at the strength of your alts against $BTC

Today, we filed a comment letter with @USTreasury on how state stablecoin rules should be judged under the GENIUS Act.
States should have a role in overseeing smaller stablecoin issuers, but the rules need to be clear and consistent across the country.
Stablecoins only work if consumers and markets can trust that they are fully backed, easy to redeem, and held to strong standards no matter which regulator oversees the issuer.
Treasury should make sure state frameworks match the federal baseline for core protections, while still giving states room to support responsible innovation.

Crypto twitter: “after 15 years, this might be the year it’s over for [new recent reason]”
Financial advisor I’m with at happy hour in Florida: “saw price is down, it’s time to buy right? It’s amazing to finally have access.”
Somehow the roles have flipped upside down in 2026.
So lets stop the intellectual circle jerk around tokens like LDO and celestia or your favourite L1 and lets start allocating to ones that can scale well
Really sad to read this.
Appreciate everything TT did for Cardano. Absolute legends. Chin up, what you guys did was incredible and it will never be forgotten.
Reality is, except for a project or 2, everyone working in Cardano is struggling right now. I don't know what the answer is, a lot of this is due to market conditions, but Cardano is failing to attract and maintain builders and users. Without them, we're just an awesome, secure and resilient network that no one is using. Constantly minting empty blocks.
There are all these things in the pipeline to make Cardano faster, but what is the point if the chain is at about 10% load.
If Cardano is going to stick around and be what it set out to be, we have to attract new users and builders and keep them here. Awareness and Marketing are needed, more than anything else.
DReps: I know you're not being paid to do this job, but you signed up for it knowing this and you are now responsible for the future of this chain. You HAVE to vote better, this is not a drill, it's literally up to you.
