Honeymoon Trump-Crypto has ended
My source is tied to the donor space: “Cryptology was a freedom and non -political for a while.” But with the increase in jobs as Biden, more regulations have occurred by law enforcement-the securities and stock or Seconds Committee brought at least 83 encryption-related measures, with the start of petitions against companies such as Coinbase and Kraken, according to Reuters, saying that their products should be set up. (Monthly to Trump’s second government, these petitions were rejected.)
However, sources in both Trumpworld and on the blockchain side of the equation tell me that encryption donors have been impatient with their investment return, which is only increased by below $ 250 million, which is said by Crypto-Aligned PACs and their associated Super Pacs. Obtaining their favorite parts of the law of genius and the law on clarity on the line – including what they regarded as more desirable regulations under the commission of future trading transactions, not SEC, was an opportunity for cash.
It is here that Coinbase and A16z were involved. Both companies have key connections in the Trump circuit-the most important of them, respectively, former Trump’s former director of the Coinbase in 2024, respectively, respectively, with A16z by Mark Andersen, the Billionaire of the Silicon Valley and the Crucator via Vice President Weelileds. Weildrishy Weildry Weildry Weildrisher works through Mark Andersen. These power players wanted to integrate the Stablecoin bill with two sources familiar with the hearing, with a more ambitious, wider, and transparent act.
Coinbase specifically destroyed feathers at the GOP Home Conference, another Republican operation in Trumpworld tells me. “That was one of these, if you want to throw your weight around you … At the end of the day they wasting two weeks of legislative calendar by slowing down everything.”
Another important point of government, senior government official and GOP operations, tells me that it is around Coinbase, after the former strategist David Pluf, Obama and former strategist Harris appears to be very pleasant to join the World Consulting Council in addition to Lassyita and others.
Even if many industries depend on maintaining relationships with lawmakers on both parties, Trumpworld is increasingly cautious about any understanding of the coding population and the democrats, while plural is the most prominent example.
“If [Democrats] Take the power again, you won’t be fooled, “Senior government source,” and all your conditions are wasted. “
The Trumpworld message to the cryptographic community that deals with the next phase of the law is simple: the game according to our rules, or good luck, get anything from the possible democratic congress of the future and the White House.
“These guys just need to understand that if they stay with us they have a good chance of success – implementing us almost guarantees failure,” the government source tells me.
“And they should not go beyond the minimum democratic votes in the law … they must wake up.”
Below all the dispute is the article of this law – even if the legislative gambling is successful, it may eventually return. “This is a careful thing about what you want,” says James Angel, a professor at the University of George Town. “The problem of law clarity is this extraordinary clarity that really gives us.” According to the angel, it is not yet clear where the CFTC authorities will end and the sec begins under the proposed law.
And in any case, he says, the evils should not be surprised if the CFTC ultimately decreases on encryption.
Regarding the unpleasant and harshness of the rules through Congress, the senior government source says this is a very welcome moment for the club for the cryptography community.
“Welcome to Congress,” the official says. “You are just one of the many people you have chewed and spit.”
