Hmm, čo budú teraz cryptobros papagájovať ako propagandu? Tipnem si - BTC atakuje 100K, tak nemám závidieť a držať hubu, lebo tomu nerozumiem.

It's probably worth noting that the NYT and other publications say the Securities and Exchange Commission is now moving to scale back a special unit of more than 50 lawyers and staff members that had been dedicated to bringing crypto enforcement actions.
Meanwhile, the Trump family is deeply and personally invested in a number of recent memecoin ventures that have attracted billions from investors. President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump each launched their own vanity memecoins last month, dubbed $TRUMP and $MELANIA.
The Wall Street Journal reported recently that the market capitalization of $TRUMP stood at about $7 billion, down from a peak of near $15 billion, while $MELANIA is hovering somewhere in the $460 million mark. Just two months before the 2024 election, Trump’s three sons debuted a cryptocurrency token called World Liberty Financial.
Bloomberg writes that ten days after the Trump/Melania memecoins were launched, an application was filed with the SEC to issue leveraged exchange-traded funds on the coins. "This is precisely what sensible regulation should prevent, letting insubstantial projects into the regulated financial system to extract money from bubble-chasing speculators. People who want to gamble should do it without the false flag of SEC protection; people with real economic projects should raise capital from informed investors with full disclosure."
Trump Coin ETFs Are Exactly What the SEC Should Prevent
Allowing exchange-traded funds that magnify exposure to the first family’s memecoins would take crypto oversight in the wrong direction.
