#CryptoRegulation
🤔 Can a memecoin stop Congress? Well... almost. French Hill, the Republican representative leading the legislative efforts on cryptocurrencies in the U.S., just dropped a bomb at Consensus 2025: Donald Trump's crypto antics, including his famous memecoin $TRUMP, are making waves in negotiations to pass key laws about the crypto ecosystem. Yes, you read that right: a memecoin is affecting the regulatory future of cryptos in the United States! 🤯💸🐘🧨💥🪙
👉🏻 What is happening exactly?
Hill explained that, although there is bipartisan consensus to advance two urgent projects—one on stablecoins and another on the structure of the crypto market—Trump's direct involvement in the crypto world is generating certain political tensions. ⚠️🏛️🗳️
Democrats, in particular, are raising eyebrows over potential conflicts of interest and the lack of transparency in Trump's personal investments in digital assets. How involved is Trump? Well, let's remember that he launched his own token in January, and he hasn't been very clear about how much and what he is involved in. 🧐📉🧢🪙🤔💼
Despite the uproar, Hill is optimistic:
> “There are serious people, from both sides of the Capitol, working to reach an agreement.” 🫱🤝🫲
And he finishes with a gem:
“I don't want to sound cheesy, but these laws go together like... peanut butter and jelly.” 🥜🍓⚖️🥪
🤔 What's next?
Trump has asked for both projects to be on his desk before the August recess. Hill believes it is possible, but acknowledges that strong rowing is needed to arrive on time. The clock is ticking... ⏳📅⏰🚀
👉🏻 Why does this matter?
Because if these laws are approved, the United States could finally offer a clear regulatory framework for cryptos. This would provide institutional confidence, attract investments, and perhaps... calm the market. Or not. But at least we would know where things are headed. 📜🔐💰📈💡

🤔 What do you think?
Is it okay for a president to be so involved in cryptos?
Is his token $TRUMP a masterstroke... or a conflict of interest on legs? 🧠🎯
