Given the ongoing dynamics on campaign trails, I wrote about how exactly a Trump victory may affect the future of crypto industry: -Expect new product launches, such as solana ETF and retail yield products -Registration with the SEC becomes possible, e.g. through a Trump-era special purpose broker program -More traditional finance entrants in crypto, potentially resuming banking access & offering bitcoin custody -New dealmaking environment for M&As and IPOs, with banks making strategic acquisitions and SEC easing going-public review process Featuring thoughts from Jesse Powell J.

Big news from the Bitcoin 2024 conference! Donald Trump announced plans to fire SEC Chair Gary Gensler on "day one" if re-elected, promising major changes in crypto regulation. He aims to create a national bitcoin reserve, end the "anti-crypto crusade," and stop Operation Chokepoint 2.0. These bold claims stirred strong reactions. Trump also wants the U.S. to be the "crypto capital of the planet," pledging a pro-crypto SEC chair. Shifting from his 2019 stance, he now vows to support and grow the industry. His promise of a bitcoin and crypto advisory council within 100 days has caught attention. With fair regulations from industry supporters, Trump hopes to keep crypto jobs and businesses in the U.S. What are your thoughts? Let's discuss in the comments! #Crypto #Bitcoin #Regulation

#Bitcoin Hits $60,000 as #Trump Shooting Boosts Re-Election Odds 📈 The price of #BTC reclaimed the $60,000 price level after former U.S. President Donald Trump’s defiant response to an assassination attempt earlier today spurred speculation that his chances of winning the presidential election have climbed. This was also reflected in a climb in the price of "Yes" shares on the prediction market #Polymarket. Specifically, Polymarket's contract on whether Trump will win the presidency saw the price of “Yes” shares rise by ten cents after the incident. The market now sees a 70% chance he will prevail in November. https://lnkd.in/ejV9dc7y

#Crypto moving mainstream! like Larry Fink, Donald Trump's opinion on crypto has evolved over the last 5 years. Although very early stage in the policy evolution, it's certainly perceived more positive than the Biden stance. The view going forward is Biden and the Democrats stifle innovation in the technology sector with increased regulation and taxes, while President Trump aims to foster American leadership in emerging technologies. As observed here many crypto investors are under the age of 40, a demographic that presidential candidates always want on their side. For now, Trump’s pro-crypto rhetoric is energising the industry and shaping the political landscape leading up to the 2024 election. Dan Tapiero Olga Kharif

Trump is securing crypto voters by accepting donations in cryptocurrencies, supporting the industry, and promising to free Ross Ulbricht. He may also offer significant tax benefits for crypto users. Data shows 14.4% of Americans use cryptocurrencies, with potential voter share at 22%. Many of these voters already support Trump, while some won't switch sides despite his crypto stance. Democrats may soon realize they've lost this battle and might attack the crypto ecosystem harder instead of trying to win these votes. The U.S. government, holding about $15 billion in crypto, might sell assets to fund campaigns, drive prices down, and undermine the sector. Expect Trump to maintain his pro-crypto stance, while Biden may initially follow but then shift to a more aggressive approach. Crypto prices could rise in the short term but face a correction before the elections. If Trump wins, 2025 could be a strong year for the market. What are your thoughts? Comment 👇

👉 Absolutely crazy for crypto in DC next wk Three big things: 1) Biden Veto SAB 121 repeal? He said he'd veto, but that was before a 60-38 vote where his own Majority leader voted against him - he has 10 days. 2) Gensler approve ETH ETF? Everyone thinks no, but that was before dems caught wind their anti-crypto SEC chair could lose them an election - decision due thursday. 3) House vote yes to FIT bill? Major crypto legislation FIT bill led by pro-crypto R contingent goes to house vote by wed/thurs, will it pass? Who's pro-crypto, who's anti-crypto? Next week will answer the question for November. The politicians are jockeying. Some are paying attention to crypto for the first time ever... We're gaining momentum.

Whew! Congress and Crypto. Today was a big day with the House passage of a new crypto bill. Last week definitely help set the foundation. Who knows what will happen next. For now, let me unpack last week's crypto headline about the Senate vote overturning the SEC's crypto custody rule: SAB121. What's the real story behind the vote? Does it mean Congress loves crypto now? Or does it mean something else? Things we'll unpack are why: - What is SAB121 from the Securities and Exchange Commission, and what does it have to do with crypto? - Why does crypto care about SAB121, and why does anyone else care about SAB121? - SAB121 breathed life into the little known Congressional Review Act. How? - What happens if the President vetoes the bill? What happens if he signs the bill? - How big of a deal is it that Senator Chuck Schumer voted for it (and against the SEC)?

Crypto industry becomes BIG Bloomberg reports that #crypto titans have pooled a $160M war chest to back Republican candidates in the upcoming US Senate races. With the 2024 presidential election coming up, the influence of this $160M could have significant implications. https://lnkd.in/e95djdYP In simpler terms, Bloomberg says the whales and their vast capital have now openly entered the game. This makes me even more confident we'll see a real #bullrun in 2024-25 after the US presidential election. However, I still need to figure out what exactly this bull run will look like. For example, can altcoins overcome the dominance of #BitcoinETFs and (possibly) #EthereumETFs in this cycle? And how will the crypto industry's political influence change?

Kraken Co-founder Donates $1M to Trump Campaign Jesse Powell, co-founder of Kraken, has announced that he donated $1 million to Donald Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign. Powell's support for Trump's reelection bid is largely tied to his pro-crypto stance, as opposed to President Joe Biden’s increasing regulatory and crypto tax policies. Powell believes that Trump's leadership could propel the U.S. to the forefront of blockchain technology, ushering in a new era of development. The U.S. presidential election is shaping up to be one of the most expensive in history, following the 2020 election's record-breaking expenditure of over $14 billion. Yesterday’s Presidential debate saw Trump's approval rating jump, while Biden's rating plummeted. As the 2024 election approaches, the crypto community will be closely watching each candidate's proposed policies on digital currencies. What do you think? #Trump #Biden #election #Kraken

We help hundreds of people each year file and report crypto on their tax returns. But one of the most common questions is, “Can I just start at the current year? If I've traded crypto in prior years, can I ignore those old years and start with the current year?” The answer to that is no.
