Those super cool web3 platforms everyone’s obsessed with? Yeah, they’re still pretty centralized 🤫. The teams behind “community-owned” protocols are like, “Hey, we’re all about sharing power… as long as we’re in charge” 🤣. Token voting systems are basically just a way for rich insiders to get richer 💸. And the communities, the ones who are supposed to be in charge? They’re just along for the ride 🚂.
On Monday, the advocacy group Stand With Crypto, alongside 65 other firms and groups, sent a letter to the US House of Representatives urging lawmakers to support the bipartisan Digital Asset Market Clarity (CLARITY) Act of 2025 as the US approaches a “pivotal crossroad.”

At Tuesday’s cabinet meeting (popcorn not provided), Trump issued several statements, each one sharper than a freshly minted coin. Apparently, Powell’s refusal to cut interest rates has cost the American people billions—number pending confirmation from either the Tooth Fairy or the nation’s top economists, whichever is available first. With the enthusiasm of a game-show host inviting contestants to spin the resignation wheel, Trump suggested Powell should step down faster than you can say, “Rate cut, please!”
OpenAI, meanwhile, recently dispatched a note reminding the starry-eyed that these tokens do not, in the eyes of law or common sense, convey actual OpenAI equity. And if you wish your tokens to become equity, do collect several letters of approval from OpenAI in triplicate—none will be forthcoming. 📑
As the Ministry’s notice fluttered through the public like an uninvited letter on a dreary afternoon, it proposed amendments to the “Special Act on Promoting Venture Businesses”—though one wonders what’s so special about being promoted by an act, save for the existential ennui. Under this spectral revision, digital asset firms, yes—even those rent-seeking, code-wielding operators—could be freed from the ranks of the “banned,” where, alongside gambling dens and errant roulette wheels, they had been interned by society’s disapproving gaze. 🎰
The bulls, those most indefatigable of creatures, have successfully flipped the $2,500 level from resistance to support, a feat that has left the bears in a state of utmost bewilderment 🐻.
