The CLARITY Act Is Advancing in the Senate: Sen. Bernie Moreno

But times are better now — and many in the industry believe we’ve reached a point of no return. Thinking Crypto's Tony Edward and the co-founder behind Bitcoin lending service LEDN, Mauricio Di Bartolomeo, join us to weigh in on why gold’s climb is sure to spill over into a solid Q4.
“Most governments are unable to control their deficits— and basically the cat’s out of the bag,” he said, citing a recent note from JPMorgan calling the trend a new “currency debasement” trade. “There is no faster horse in the debasement trade than Bitcoin and the world is … waking up to this idea that this isn’t a story about assets performing well. This is a story about currencies collapsing. And that’s really the driver of all of this.”

After crossing $11 billion of the asset, or 2%, BitMine is already on its way to that goal. But what comes next? Watch Tom Lee explain why he is getting ahead of a massive buy wave — and why he thinks Ethereum is the next Wall Street.
Projecting the success of #bitcoin onto ETH, Lee explains why the same surge could mean Ethereum hits $10,000 by the end of the year, and $60,000 after that.

On average, October has brought a nearly 22% return to #bitcoin over the last decade or so. That only trails November’s 46% average for the best month. All signs seem to be pointing to history repeating itself. We dig into why, and explore the "war" shaping up in stablecoins.

As Solana continues its incredible climb, it's led the rally since the FTX collapse. And now, Jiang explains why it's well suited to inherit the tokenization of Wall Street.
But are there risks growing in the digital asset treasury company space? Or is it just natural consolidation? We dig into why the Strategy playbook is spilling over from #bitcoin into the rest of #crypto

Perhaps it could be the big boost coming from digital asset treasury companies. Another #solana DAT from Pantera was announced Monday (Helius.) But could an upcoming ETF dent the flow of funds?
eToro analyst Brent Kenwell joins us to discuss what that all means for where #bitcoin heads from here, based on a new survey among retail investors.

Is the Solana Seeker better than an iPhone? Maybe that's not the right question to be asking. As we highlight in this episode, what does it really mean to be a "crypto phone?" Simply that the phone doubles as a crypto wallet? Or that the phone solves the chicken and the egg problem that has taken down so many likeminded attempts to take down Apple and Google before it.
Watch our episode to go deeper into why The Seeker matters as a crypto phone — and come back for Part 2 as we put it to the test!

The stock, Eightco Holdings saw its OCTO stock surge more than 3,000% in afternoon trading. It even attracted a $20 million investment from Tom Lee's ETH DAT BitMine Immersion Technologies.
But are more DATs leading to a bubble? New research shows it's getting harder to attract the same premiums Saylor once enjoyed as they become more popular. We recap those launches, and the largest Solana DAT yet.
Plus, is the NASDQ really filing with the SEC to bring stocks onchain? Watch to find out!

Coinage investigates what the first ever digital dollar tied to a president and his family could mean for America.
#trump #crypto #cryptocurrency #ethereum #bitcoin
USD1 has become the world's fastest-growing stablecoin in #crypto — rising 16x faster than Tether. As we explain in this episode, a significant part of that may very well be World Liberty's ability to leverage the power of President Trump.
But could a digital dollar that draws inspiration from Trump continue to divide an already divided country? Coinage took this episode up with no motives to arrive at an answer for you. We just wanted to connect the dots so you can decide the answer to that question yourselves.

In a wide-ranging interview with Coinage, Trump's former White House communications director made clear that while he’s all for Bitcoin adoption, the way President Trump is going about it could wind up doing more harm for America than good.
“According to the watchdogs, he's made $3.4 billion since he started the presidency the second time. I don't know if that's good for the country,” Scaramucci said. “I would actually say you say it less passive aggressive and say that's bad for the country.”

By Monday afternoon, #bitcoin had officially erased all of Friday’s rally and then some by falling back below $110,000. Ethereum was still clinging to some gains, but had given back about half of the rally it enjoyed on Friday.
It could very well be another Monday leverage washout, but there is much more at play here, as we unpacked on today’s show.

But as everyone suddenly issues their own “digital dollars,” what will the impact on America be? And could there be unforeseen consequences of letting a bunch of private companies now issue #crypto wrappers around the dollars Americans already use?
Former Chairman at the Commodity Futures Trading Commission Christopher Giancarlo has been focused on these questions for years. He’s even started the Digital Dollar Project, a non-profit forum focused on exploring how digital money innovations are changing the payments landscape and America’s financial system.
And yet, even he – a supporter of crypto so strong he’s won the title “Crypto Dad” – is not shy about some of the hypocrisy forming around centrally stablecoins becoming the lead narrative in a space that once championed decentralization and permissionlessness. In particular, Giancarlo laments that the first major piece of crypto legislation essentially just codified certain surveillance practices that were already commonplace in traditional finance.
Watch our full interview to get the full picture on stablecoins, the economic battle between China and the U.S. and what President Trump and his family getting in on the action as well with USD1 could mean for America.

But how much has it grown up? Well, it's not just the hottest new thing being sold by suits on Wall Street, it's now also being bundled into life insurance.
At a recent event in our studio, Coinage hosted Hedgeye Digital Assets Analyst Ish Asad and Meanwhile's Chief Insurance Officer Jim Cristallo for a look back on Bitcoin's journey and how far it's come to now be included as an asset in everything from mortgages (if all goes as planned with the Federal Housing Finance Association) to life insurance policies.
"Bitcoin has clearly become a more serious asset," Asad said, noting the rise of Bitcoin treasury companies looking at a new way to leverage its status as digital gold. "I kind of think everybody has a duty to understand Bitcoin and it's different from the rest of crypto. I think Bitcoin is going to be a part of everyone's life, it's up to you whether you want to own it."

To raise the bar on transparency, Backpack announced they will be publishing their proof of reserves daily — a much more frequent pace than the quarterly or monthly clip at other exchanges.
Ferrante also joined Coinage to share a warning that some of the lack of importance being placed on transparency may result in similar FTX-like collapses.
"It might kind of sound a little sad to say, but it does feel like we've forgotten a lot of the lessons of the last cycle. And you're seeing, you know, new things that that rhyme, I suppose," he says.

Ethereum has already given back most of the prior week’s gains, and things could go from bad to worse if the Fed chair signals that the recent uptick in inflation is more worrisome than the softening in the labor market. Traders could very well continue pushing out hopes of interest rates coming down.
Until then, other Ethereum treasury companies are copying Coinage's playbook, and offering dividends for shareholders. It's an interesting twist in what is already becoming a crowded field.

Unlike Sam Bankman-Fried, and other crypto founders, Do Kwon is waiving his right to a trial and pleading guilty as part of an agreement that could see him sent back to his native Korea after as little as six years. He also agreed to forfeit $19 million dollars and will face restitution.
In the courtroom, Do apologized for his actions and read from a prepared statement to plead guilty to the fraud and conspiracy charges. But as more crypto players jockey for pardons, could Do Kwon be next in line?
Some still left in the Terra community flagged a new SEC filing from the new Trump-aligned World Liberty Financial treasury company ALT5 Sigma and noticed UST, the original Terra stablecoin is on their list of crypto assets. Coincidence? Maybe.

BitMine chairman Tom Lee, for example, has increased his own #ethereum price target to $16,000 from $10,000 over the last month. But none of the new price targets come close to the one proffered by Etherealize CEO Vivek Raman.
As Raman explains in a new Coinage interview, the recent rally is just further proof Ethereum is on its way to becoming the world's ledger, and worthy of a trillion-dollar price tag. Extrapolating the rough math would see Ethereum trade at about $80,000 per token, he says.
"I think we have to dream a lot bigger. I think we're building the infrastructure for the whole global economy," Raman told Coinage. "We've almost been in this like PTSD thing where ETH has been performing so badly price-wise for so long that people just don't dream big."

As Zora co-founder Dee Goens tells Coinage, it's kind of like tokenizing an Instagram or a TikTok, where every post also exists as a token that benefits that creator coin. In that sense, Zora is trying to unlock a new way for supporters to bet on their favorite creators, and for creators to monetize attention.
"For every post and every profile, creators earn 1% of every trade in like a royalty form," Goens explains. Buy or sell a post? You’re moving the price of the creator coin. Trade the creator coin? You’re adding value back into the Zora ecosystem. It’s a self-reinforcing loop — one that’s already landed Zora in the top social apps.
As Coinage host Zack Guzman discusses with Goens in this episode, it's very similar to what Coinage is unlocking as well — giving our subscribers a way to co-own our brand and outlet. And so to experiment, Coinage also launched our own creator coin, which is owned by the Coinage DAO.
We discuss how to use Zora, and what to expect with our new creator coin.

“I think it’s going to be very hard to replicate what we did before,” Vaidya told Coinage. “There was a time where if one [Layer-1] pops, the others will all pop. … I think there’s enough network effects now to where if you just launch Solana competitor 1-2-3-4-5-6, you can’t expect that to work.”
It’s a sobering assessment from someone who’s lived through every major boom and bust in crypto since buying his first bitcoin in 2013. And after weathering “about four or five crashes,” he’s still betting on crypto’s future — just not in the places most retail investors are looking.

And as Interchain Labs co-CEO Maghnus Mareneck explains, the next chapter isn’t just about riding crypto’s cycles anymore — it’s about staking a claim at the center.
In this interview, we discuss the prior challenges of ATOM and the Cosmos ecosystem and why a new take on the "internet of blockchains" thesis could prove Cosmos right.
At the center of that vision sits the Cosmos Hub, which Mareneck and his team are actively rebuilding into what he calls the “index” of the broader Cosmos ecosystem. “We like to say: make the hub a hub again,” he said. “Build the right products and services… that make life easier for the internet of blockchains.”

Molly White explains that a post-Trump shift in how the government is prosecuting the case against Roman Storm for money laundering and other offenses has complicated the case.
"It does not seem to me that he should be held responsible for failing to implement ... compliance mechanisms when they won't say what those compliance mechanisms should have been," White tells Coinage in an interesting discussion on privacy, a right to code, and America's interests in policing sanctions.

Unlike other trials in crypto — Storm's troubles with Tornado Cash hit on important themes in crypto: A right to privacy, and a belief that code is similar to rights around free speech. But Storm's case also highlights that some of those liberties may come at the cost of control for the U.S. government.
Mainly, the government claims Storm and his co-founders were well aware that their money mixer was being used by state-sanctioned actors like North Korea's hacking group.
Storm faces a trio of charges – including conspiracy to commit money laundering, conspiracy to operate an unlicensed money transferring business, and conspiracy to violate the International Emergency Economic Powers Act – that have been significantly narrowed by a new DOJ memo that was implemented after President Trump came into office.
In this episode we walk through what we've seen at the trial in New York City, and what the verdict will mean for Ethereum's roadmap and the wider world of crypto.
While the jurors will soon rule on whether Roman Storm is guilty or innocent — our viewers are invited to rule for themselves in our onchain vote: https://v1.snapshot.box/#/coinagemedia.eth/proposal/0x65de41e4429ee23cb8c6d42aefe9b1d186fb1818a863ef0d1b22a547e3cecd87

So what will make winning NFT projects this time around? And what will new capabilities bring to NFTs?
"The floodgates are open, and you're going to really see the best of what crypto entrepreneurs are going to bring within these next couple of years," Netz tells Coinage in a new interview, highlighting a new creative shift happening in crypto now that the industry is no longer as on high alert as it was under the reign of former SEC Chair Gary Gensler.
As the only Web3 media outlet you can co-own, we couldn't agree more: https://www.coinage.media/about
For Pudgy Penguins, one of the leading NFT projects, Netz says the goal has been to establish their lovable penguins as the new characters of the internet and to potentially rival Disney's Mickey Mouse. To do so, the project has leaned heavily on measuring and promoting its virality, including tracking how many people use their GIFs, how often people view their YouTube shorts, and eventually looking for ways to unlock that attention.
"I think at the end of the day, an NFT project's goal is to proliferate the IP, right? Like, if your mission as an NFT project is to not proliferate the IP, I would argue that you shouldn't be an NFT project," Netz explained.

The GENIUS stablecoin bill now heads to President Trump's desk to be signed into law — and experts expect trillions of dollars to pour into crypto as a result.
After a tense battle earlier this week that looked like it could delay votes on the crypto bills, Republicans came together to get things done in what became the longest rule vote in House history.
Watch our explainer on why the stablecoin bill passing is a big win for Trump's family and their USD1 stablecoin: youtu.be/dhQD0u9m_Rk?si=nbEIC6bt8xNMBbhQ

Schiener opens up about IOTA’s origins, raising more than 1,000 bitcoin in its 2015 ICO, and how the team navigated the crypto rollercoaster of the last decade. From inventing its tech to pivoting into programmable smart contracts, IOTA has made tough calls to stay relevant — and now, it’s doubling down on digitizing global trade, issuing digital IDs for exporters, and tokenizing real-world assets in regions like Africa, Europe, and soon the U.S.
With the support of institutional partners and plans for expansion into the U.S. and Asia, IOTA is moving quickly to roll out DeFi infrastructure, real yield primitives, and sustainable TVL strategies. Schiener shares why he believes IOTA is now one of the most underappreciated layer-1s—and why he never cashed out, even when he could’ve retired. “I'm doing this for the cause,” he says. “Not the money.”
