According to an X post by Bo Hines, the President’s Digital Asset Working Group has wrapped up its 180-day study—a task so monumental it required nearly half a year of deep thought, coffee breaks, and possibly even heated debates over lunch menus. Their findings will grace us with their presence on July 30. Yes, dear reader, mark your calendars. The wait is almost over.
This isn’t just any license, darling. It’s like the crypto version of holding all the gold medals.

Garlinghouse, that paragon of caution, declared in a missive posted to X on Wednesday that the broader market rally hath spurred scammers to impersonate the official Ripple YouTube account, a trick as old as the hills but ever effective. 🎬🎭
As if summoned by the trumpets of opportunity, the market whirled into a frenzy, sending prices skyrocketing beyond the enticing threshold of $1.16, only to retreat back into its lair like a shy cat.

Oh, my dear readers, that’s just an artist’s tool for creating drama! 🎭
This comment, delivered at a flashy AI summit hosted by the All-In Podcast crew and the Hill & Valley Forum, offered a sharp rebuke to the copyright maximalism gaining traction in Washington.

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is hovering around 80, which technically screams “overbought,” but there’s no panic selling in sight. No one seems to be hitting the eject button just yet, unlike Ethereum, whose rallies often attract institutional sell-offs faster than you can say “blockchain.” 😅
As economists joust over the triumphant policy of tariffs orchestrated by President Trump, we find ourselves elbow-deep in the second-quarter (Q2) corporate reporting season.

How utterly thrilling! 😲💸
All the usual suspects—volume, trader enthusiasm, and maybe a touch of fairy dust—have joined the party.

The GENIUS Act, now etched in law like an absurd decree from some bureaucratic czar, lets banks and fintech wizards dabble in stablecoins with guidelines so “clear” they might as well be written in invisible ink. This opens the floodgates for USDT to duel it out in the US arena, where Circle’s USDC has been lounging like a pampered cat with $65 billion to its name. Tether, ever the underdog with a mischievous grin, smells blood. 😏
