Best Crypto to Buy as Congress Meets with Crypto Leaders
Washington's power players finally sit down with crypto's biggest names—and the market's watching every move.
Regulatory Showdown: What Really Matters
While politicians debate frameworks, smart money's already positioning. Historical patterns show regulatory clarity triggers massive institutional inflows—remember what happened after the last congressional hearing? Bitcoin jumped 22% in three weeks.
Portfolio Plays That Outperform
Forget chasing memecoins. Established Layer 1 protocols and compliance-ready altcoins typically lead the post-meeting rally. Projects with clear regulatory positioning tend to outperform speculative plays by 3:1 margin when policy momentum shifts.
Timing The Bounce
Market veterans know these meetings create predictable volatility patterns. The 'regulatory dip' often presents prime entry points before the inevitable policy optimism surge—because nothing moves markets faster than politicians realizing they can't stop decentralized tech.
Of course, Wall Street will find a way to package this 'risk' into another overpriced ETF—but you'll already be positioned in the actual assets.
we talked about the Tornado Cash and Samourai Wallet legal situations. One guilty verdict and one guilty plea. The general thrust of that discussion was that clarity is arriving in the FORM of outcomes from the legal system. You can moan about regulation by enforcement. Or not. But guilty pleas and verdicts provide a measure of clarity.
Consequently, anyone in a similar position to those two teams should expect legal problems whether or not they believe they did anything wrong. Last time we did not generalize beyond those cases with a general theory. Now we will do precisely that.
Before that it is important to clarify that we are going to assume, here, that no wholesale changes to the US legal system are in order. If someone wants to challenge the entire edifice of US money transmission regulation and surveillance as unconstitutionally overbroad they may well have a case. Myriad people have complained the PATRIOT Act is not – or should not be – constitutional on all kinds of fronts.
The US legal system has a history of random cases leading to massive changes. A fight over the estate of Texas oil billionaire between his third-and-final wife, a former Playboy Playmate 67 years his junior that he met while she was performing at a "gentlemen's club" in Houston, and his other children led to a complete restructuring of the US bankruptcy courts. Assuming the ground is firm is a bad idea. At the same time predicating your defense on such an outcome is risky. That case only went as far as it did because everyone involved had effectively infinite resources. This is not a constitutional law journal.
