      The 87 year old senator you’re referring to who objected to the bill is Richard Shelby, a Republican from Alabama, not Vermont. Shelby’s BS political maneuver saying he would object to any and all other amendments if he didn’t get his own amendment for another $50B in military spending was a thinly veiled manipulation by the biggest donors that put him into office: commercial banks.

    So much for “the government can’t stop the crypto revolution! …”. Pass some anti-crypto laws, the entire industry can be brought down on its knees in a jiffy.

    Imagine 1 dollar of crypto can buy you 1 litter of milk for your kid, and the next day 1 same crypto dollar can buy you less than half? crypto has no tangible economy to back it as long as theres hype. With this kind of attitube maybe long time

    This is super bearish. I’ll be selling majority of my crypto this peak. Sounds like it’s dead money.

    Hard to comprehend that the crypto community didnt build a proper lobby in DC long ago…did they not think crypto cld go mainstream ever? And tht the only path to mass adoption is to work w/existing structure not outside of it thinking somehow the world will magically change

    I’m starting to wonder about Jesse.
    I love that they dropped Jack Dorsey & Brian Armstrong photo over Jesse speaking… Jack and Brien are crypto executives who are in “favor” of tax fix.
    I mean Jesse seems to run away when its time to comply. We don’t see him in NY. C’mon Jesse! Stop caring from afar.
