Are you worried about the new legislation surrounding crypto and block technology?

For requiring tax forms?

I mean, there may be a short term hit, but this was inevitable.

It passes the Howey test imo.

Worried about enhanced credibility, marketability, laundering containment, ideally dodgiest exchanges and trashiest cryptos pushed to the rubbish bin, increasing likelihood some more HNW 1%ers pay some crypto gains taxes, etc? Added reporting requirements, potential increased taxes, etc may be inconvenient, but I see more sun than rain.

Was outpacing BTC, now getting passed as BTC is running again. Lets hope it gets a 2nd wind. If BTC can stay up without really pumping, all else will too. If not, same old, same old. We're still a ways away from the flippening.

I was of the belief BTC would ping pong in the 30's for a while. This re-pump and slow sustainable growth into the 40's is leading me to now believe otherwise. If BTC does anything erratically, you might see $20 Link again. Either a dump or a flash pump to $60k where everybody wants to be in BTC. Not sure that will happen though and think steady growth in the 40's and Link in the upper $20's will occur. That's just my uninformed opinion. I don't keep up with it like I used to.

Then again, an Elon tweet could make it happen.

Let’s see what happens if this crypto stuff goes through on the infrastructure bill

It’s a tough spot for everyone to be in because there’s no question imo that crypto hits all 4 parts of the Howey test so it could certainly be a security, but it is also kind of commodity like as gold is

Hard to have a blanket regulation to crytpo, as every token/coin serves a different purpose based on it's functionality within that companies ecosystem/blockchain/product.

It’s still an asset class. You could say the same for stocks and that’s why they have mlp and reits

AMC with an actual earnings report after yesterday's close which could take it from WSB meme stock status to a post COVID rebound stock status.

Up almost 8% pre market.

Senate is blocking what was proposed by the House. I think some regulation is needed. I think some of crypto is really just a company, with a product that has chosen to rely on crypto, rather than something more like bitcoin. Some of them really should be stocks. My concern is that almost nobody in Congress understands it, and anything they do now is almost certain to be the wrong thing. Meanwhile, China is cracking down as expected, which is going to disadvantage China. We need to take a cautious approach that doesn't stifle innovation.
