From my understanding there are three routes this will probably end. The original wording which is fairly broad and considers most crypto participants a “broker”, the Wyden-Lummis-Toomey Amendment which helps collect tax revenue but doesn’t pick winners of technology, or the Warner-Portman-Sinema Amendment that excludes PoW Miners from being considered “brokers” and picks sides.

Ooof. If you are an American who hasn’t called your Senator yet, then this is it. Seems we are losing steam against other pressures (passing the bil) and could get stuck with the original language. This is a now or never moment. Let them know this is worth fighting for.

@BullyEsq @NeerajKA Discussions re: a compromise amendment are ongoing. The broader politics & process around passing the bill are starting to predominate, though. It's possible no amendments will be proposed at all, which means we'll be stuck with the current language. https://t.co/cweKg99PMf

More people are going to start renting CryptoPunks to display as their profile pic for social signaling. Found out cryptopunk.rent exists where owners can sign a transaction giving the borrower rights to display the CryptoPunk as their avatar for a fixed number of days

Just so we’re all clear here, the SEC has no authority over pure commodities or their trading venues, whether those commodities are wheat, gold, oil….or #crypto assets.
