LONDON,UNITED KINGDOM - FEBRUARY 4: In this photo More

In a move that perfectly encapsulates the peculiarities of our times, Donald Trump launched a meme coin on January 17th, 2025, just a few days before his presidential inauguration. Within less than 24 hours it has reached a staggering market capitalization of $4.8 billion and a fully diluted valuation of $24.3 billion. "Trump Coin" has taken the cryptocurrency world by storm, potentially positioning itself to challenge Dogecoin's supremacy in the meme coin ecosystem.

The emergence of a presidential meme coin might seem unprecedented, but in the context of Trump's brand-leveraging history, it follows a familiar pattern. From Trump University to Trump Hotels, casinos, and even NFTs, the president has consistently demonstrated his ability to monetize his personal brand. What's different this time isn't the strategy, but the medium – and ironically, the regulatory environment that made it possible. #$TRUMP

#ILOVE$TRUMP Donald Trump is the 45th president (2017–21) and 47th president (2025– ) of the United States. He is the second U.S. president to serve nonconsecutive terms. Prior to his 2016 run for the presidency, Trump was best known as a real-estate developer and businessman who owned, managed, or licensed his name to commercial and residential properties around the world. From 2004 to 2015 he also starred in the reality television series "The Apprentice," which featured contestants competing in various challenges to become one of his employees. Trump was the Republican Party’s candidate for president in 2016, and his campaign slogan “Make America Great Again” helped him to defeat Democrat Hillary Clinton. During his first term Trump sought to change tax regulations and limit immigration, among other actions, and he was responsible for the federal government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic beginning in early 2020.The U.S. House of Representatives impeached Trump on charges connected to the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol by his supporters after his loss to Democrat Joe Biden in the 2020 presidential election. Trump was acquitted by the U.S. Senate. He was indicted in 2023 on four separate sets of criminal charges; he denied all wrongdoing. In 2024 he was convicted on multiple felony counts of falsifying business records. In 2024 Trump was again the Republican candidate for president, and he defeated Democrat Kamala Harris. After he took office in January 2025, he pursued trade policy, downsizing the federal government, and the elimination of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs as top priorities #ILOVETRUMP

#ILOVE$TRUMP President Donald Trump has promised to reverse the SEC’s previous crackdown on the crypto industry under former President Joe Biden. The Biden-era SEC had sued multiple crypto firms, including Coinbase and Kraken, alleging violations of securities laws. The SEC’s new leadership has agreed to withdraw or suspend many of those cases.

The task force on Friday discussed whether crypto tokens need a distinct regulatory framework separate from the one used for traditional securities like stocks. Jennings called for a “technology-neutral” approach, suggesting that systems like Ethereum should be treated differently from corporate equity.

Some members of the commission raised concerns about creating a separate set of rules for crypto. Democratic SEC Commissioner Caroline Crenshaw warned that loosening regulations for digital assets could undermine broader market protections.

“Modifying the law to facilitate the success of a chosen product category is fraught with risk,” Crenshaw said. “Risk not only of weakening regulatory protections for that category, but of creating the negative domino effect on other areas of the market protected by the same laws.”

The meeting comes as Trump’s administration moves to reshape cryptocurrency policies. Earlier this month, Trump signed an executive order to establish a strategic reserve of cryptocurrencies and hosted a summit with industry leaders at the White House, where he reinforced his administration’s support for the crypto industry. #ILOVETRUMP

SEC holds crypto roundtable as Trump vows to boost US Dollar dominance

The US Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) crypto task force held its first public meeting on Friday, focusing on how existing securities laws might apply to digital assets.

The discussion comes as the Trump administration explores changes to cryptocurrency regulations.

Participants included John Reed Stark, former chief of the SEC’s Office of Internet Enforcement; Miles Jennings, general counsel for Andreessen Horowitz’s crypto arm, a16z; and former SEC Commissioner Troy Paredes. Republican SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce is heading the task force, which is responsible for shaping new rules and guidance for the crypto industry.

“Spring signifies new beginnings and we have a new beginning here, a restart of the commission’s approach to crypto regulation,” Peirce said.

The crypto industry has long been at odds with regulators over how federal securities laws apply to digital assets. Many in the industry argue that crypto tokens function more like commodities than securities. If classified as securities, tokens would require firms to register with the SEC and provide disclosures to investors. #SecCryptoRoundtable

What is cryptocurrency Solana (SOL) and how does it work?

Time is something we all take for granted, but most blockchains don’t make any reference to time when they record transactions. Agreement on time is one of the most difficult problems to solve in distributed systems, especially adversarial systems like blockchain, where network nodes can’t trust an external source of time. When one project realized that no one was effectively keeping time in crypto, it decided to introduce a clock to the blockchain, which had the effect of making it much more efficient. That project was Solana.
Interested in Solana (SOL), but not sure what it’s all about or where to even begin? Don’t worry – this handy guide is designed to teach you everything you need to know about the project and get you ready to jump into the most user-friendly trading experience available on the market. #SOL

DEFINITION

An exchange-traded fund is an investment vehicle that pools a group of securities into a fund. As its name indicates, it can be traded like an individual stock on an exchange.

What Is an Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF)?

An exchange-traded fund (ETF) is an investment fund that holds multiple underlying assets and can be bought and sold on an exchange, much like an individual stock. ETFs can be structured to track anything from the price of a commodity to a large and diverse collection of stocks.

ETFs can even be designed to track specific investment strategies. Various types of ETFs are available to investors for income generation, speculation, or hedging risk in an investor’s portfolio. The first ETF in the U.S. was the SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY), which tracks the S&P 500 Index.1

KEY TAKEAWAYS

An exchange-traded fund (ETF) is a basket of securities that trades on an exchange just like a stock.

ETF share prices fluctuate throughout the trading day; this is different from mutual funds, which only trade once a day after the market closes.

ETFs offer low expense ratios and fewer brokerage commissions than buying stocks individually. #ETFWatch

On April 30, 2024, Zhao was sentenced to four months in prison and fined $200 million for not complying with U.S. anti-money laundering laws. As of May 11, 2024, Binance is operational and remains a popular cryptocurrency exchange.

The first round of voting features tokens built on the BNB Smart Chain (BSC).

The two projects with the highest votes will move forward to Binance’s due diligence and compliance review, but listing is not guaranteed.

In a move that aims to enhance community participation in its listing decisions, Binance has relaunched its inaugural “Vote to List” initiative. This move gives Binance users a direct role in the token listing process, signaling a move toward a more decentralized, community-driven model.

Binance Unleashes Vote to Delist With Community Power—Which Tokens Are at Risk?





By Kevin Helms

Fri Mar 21 21:30:16 EST 2025

Binance launched its first “Vote to Delist” campaign, letting users influence token removals as it shifts from internal-only decisions to community-driven governance on listings.

Token Elimination Begins: Binance Empowers Users With Vote to Delist Feature

Crypto exchange Binance took another step in its community governance roadmap by activating its first-ever “Vote to Delist” campaign on March 21, hosted through its Binance Square platform. This development follows the recent rollout of its “Vote to List” initiative, both part of an expanding effort to include users in listing-related decisions. These mechanisms mark a shift in Binance’s approach, which previously relied solely on internal assessments.
