Chervinsky called out Title 3, saying it’s like a trapdoor in a funhouse. Lummis fired back with a “Don’t believe the FUD” tweet. Oh, Cynthia, if only FUD was our biggest problem. Maybe she should focus on the actual words in the bill, not the acronyms.

Despite this, the protocol’s token is still losing value, down over 3% in the last day and significantly – over 10% – in the past week. It has now lost all the progress it made after the announcement of its listing on Kraken.

On what can only be described as a Thursday ripe for intrigue, our intrepid Representative Waters, the leading Democrat on the House Financial Services Committee, penned a missive to the esteemed Jeff Schmid, President and CEO of the Kansas City Fed, demanding to know just what they were thinking when they approved this “limited purpose account” for the second-largest crypto exchange in the land, Kraken.

Through a merry report to CryptoPotato, the institution announced that it has reached five hundred million staked XRP, a sum so vast it could have easily been mistaken for the modest expectations set by a high‑brow societal event. Naturally, the colossal figure was achieved by a host of self‑identifying “whales,” the financiers of whom exist in the mythic realm where a single deposit surpasses the great hundreds of millions of their younger colleagues, each proclaiming, “One million! What a laugh!” The collective of these titans has raised the bar by an additional forty million Flare XRP (FXRP) – a true celebration of liquidity.

Claver built his analysis around what he calls a “liquidity index,” a way to gauge how genuinely useful and stable a digital asset is, instead of simply looking at its price. This index considers six things: how easily the asset can be bought and sold in large quantities, consistent trading activity, the cost of transactions, how much of the asset is available, how quickly transactions settle, and how accessible it is. According to Claver, for an asset to function well as a payment method, it doesn’t need to increase dramatically in value—it just needs to be priced high enough to allow for substantial transactions.

Now, in a most unexpected confession, he lifts the proverbial veil upon the slimy underbelly of the October 10th market crash-allocating the blame not to the slippery beast of a popular crypto exchange, but to the very men who once occupied the White House and its gilded corridors.

The decision, met with equal parts laughter and disbelief, raises questions about the longevity of these notes once the current administration is shown the door. While the law ensures these bills remain legal tender, a future government could quietly relegate them to the dustbin of history-or, more fittingly, to the novelty section of eBay.

And lo! Volatility struts about like a peacock, raising its feathers high. The coming days will be pivotal, as BTC decides whether to hold above the sacred ground of $60k or plunge headfirst into the murky depths of the $50k support cluster. One can only imagine how the crypto-scholars will react; perhaps they’ll throw their hands up in despair or maybe just tweet some witty memes.

As a researcher, I’ve been tracking a new scam where fraudsters are offering to get cryptocurrency projects listed on Binance. They’re falsely claiming to either be employees of Binance or to have personal connections with CZ, the company’s founder, to build trust with potential victims.

Brad Garlinghouse, the so‑called czar of Ripple Labs, spent an afternoon at the FII PRIORITY Miami Summit chattering about the Clarity Act. He admitted Ripple has no “big dog” in this tug‑of‑war and chose to let the real hot‑potato arguments have their day. “I’ll predict by the end of May we’ll get something across,” he said, politely clutching a coffee that tasted suspiciously like ambition.
