Crypto Drama Alert: Trump’s SEC Pick & Coinbase’s Shady Timing!

by

So, the company decided to throw a party (also known as full trading) no earlier than 9 AM PT on April 22, 2025. It all begins with the RSR-USD pair, assuming the crypto gods bless us with enough liquidity—because nothing screams excitement like waiting around for other people to show up.

RSR’s been making waves lately, probably because it’s feeling spicy: up 7.7% in a day, 7.2% over a week, and a jaw-dropping 24% over a month. If you’re wondering why everyone’s whispering about RSR around the water cooler, it’s not just the caffeine. Enter Paul Atkins, a former SEC Commissioner who moonlighted with the Reserve Rights Foundation back in the day, and now—plot twist!—he’s President Trump’s pick to lead the SEC. Talk about a reunion nobody saw coming.

Atkins is the kind of crypto cheerleader who might actually loosen the regulatory leash. Industry folks are buzzing that he could turn the SEC from party pooper to party starter, which means tokens like RSR might finally get their glow-up.

Oh, and Coinbase—our favorite crypto bazaar—opted to debut RSR trading only on the Base network. Suspicious timing, you say? You’re not alone. Some skeptics are peering through their glasses, wondering if this is a coincidence or a calculated dance coordinated with Atkins’ SEC cameo. Because when regulators and crypto collide, it’s usually less “cha-cha” and more “shady shuffle.”

Meanwhile, Coinbase isn’t exactly living free and clear. Oregon’s Attorney General is sharpening their legal pitchforks, reportedly gearing up a securities-related hit. So while RSR is basking in newfound glory, Coinbase might just be praying they don’t get subpoenaed before their morning coffee.
