President Trump signs GENIUS Act into law

Washington just got a crypto curveball. The GENIUS Act—now law after Trump's signature—could shake up tech and finance like a Bitcoin halving event. No vague promises, just hard policy shifts.

What's inside? Think regulatory sandboxes meets Silicon Valley ambition. The bill bypasses legacy red tape, fast-tracking blockchain and AI projects that would've drowned in SEC paperwork. Critics call it a 'wild west' move; supporters say it's overdue.

Wall Street's already gaming it out—hedge funds are repackaging old ETFs as 'GENIUS-compliant' vehicles (because nothing says innovation like financial rebranding). Meanwhile, devs are racing to deploy before the 2026 funding cliff.

One thing's clear: whether this fuels real innovation or just another bubble, D.C. just became crypto's most unpredictable whale.
