Breaking: The Senate votes to overturn SEC anti-crypto rule; Biden showdown?
U.S. Senate ^ | May 16 | Sen. Lummis

@SenLummis

The Senate passing a CRA overturning SAB 121 is a win for financial innovation and a clear rebuke of the way the Biden admin and Gary Gensler have persecuted crypto.

It also marks the 1st time Congress has passed standalone crypto legislation.

We are just getting started.

The House was debating this last week, and one of the Dems in the debate was NC rep Wiley Nickel. Some things you just can’t make up.

Crypto was cool until it became an “industry” with the largest banks creating ETFs.
Now it’s just another product.

This is dumber than no-doc mortgage money.

Why must Republicans so often be at the forefront of stupid?

So... the Congress voted to allow some privacy in financial transactions?

That's really weird...

I’m not a crypto currency investor and never will be.

However, if this investment is going continue to yield profits with the amounts currently invested, large financial institutions need to be involved in the action.

That involvement could add stability to a misunderstood financial instrument(crypto) or lead to a weaker banking system.(if losses occur)

Of course, a strengthening would lead to a stronger financial sector.

I love Bitcoin and Solono. You can call it BS. The IRS says it is a hard asset the same as Gold. BTC will continue to be the asset that all the financial institutions accumulate in order to beat inflation. So fare in four years I am up 500,000 USD, and after spending 190,000 my 96,400 investment is still worth 300,000.
