1. We're at the precipice of a once in 100 year debt and currency crisis.

The Coinbase breach probably ups kidnapping and robbery risk significantly for hundreds of thousands of crypto users. But it might also help with the fight against government KYC overreach.
Just kidding the Leftists hate us and hope we face violent thugs.
Dems should pair @RepRitchie’s bill focused on the $Trump memecoin with market structure legislation, but strip out the USD1 attack, and pass GENIUS.
No one in crypto - including rabid Trump supporters like me - would fault Dems for taking a hardline on the memecoin.
But that has nothing to do with the first stablecoin bill.

Everyone wins if you split the baby.
Dems save face, Trump / GOP get a win, UST market gets a win, crypto gets a win, and Dems have a hard line on market structure they can cling to with some degree of principled argument.
I get a lot of haters on here / people chirping about my rhetoric, but the few things I've been excellent at for over a decade are 1. reading the tea leaves on big trends, 2. understanding exponential growth, and 3. speaking unspeakable truths.
