Congress Drops Crypto Market Structure Bomb—Here’s Who Wins (and Who Gets Left Holding the Bag)
Washington finally takes a swing at crypto regulation—but will it clear the air or just muddy the waters?
The Gist:
A new bipartisan bill aims to define which digital assets qualify as securities versus commodities, potentially handing the SEC and CFTC clearer oversight roles. Spoiler: exchanges hate it, DeFi shrugs, and Bitcoin maxis are already declaring victory.
The Fine Print:
The legislation carves out exemptions for ‘decentralized’ projects while tightening rules on stablecoins—because nothing says ‘stable’ like Congress getting involved. Expect lobbyists to swarm like traders chasing a 2% yield on a shitcoin.
The Punchline:
Another ‘landmark’ crypto framework drops… just in time for the next bull run to make it irrelevant. Wall Street’s already gaming the loopholes.
