Well reasoned and compelling case by @JBSDC @paradigm for @CFTC to permit #DeFi trading of spot #crypto assets. Worth a read.
This week, Paradigm filed a comment with the CFTC on its quick request for comment on how to list spot crypto for trading on designated contract markets. Our comment is, frankly, pretty simple: we believe any trading of spot crypto shouldn’t disadvantage DeFi.

Thanks, @RebeccaRettig1.
@lex_node Amazing work by @giancarloMKTS and @perkinscr97 to invest this idea, bring it to life, make it understood in DC and put in immense effort publicly and privately to get to this point. 🙌🏼.

An important first step: Bill introduced in Congress by @RepDavid to use #LettersOfMarque to go after state-sponsored cyber hackers. Exactly what @perkinscr97 and I have been calling for. Tell your Congressional representatives to get on board and #Crypto fight back!.
I’ve been waiting for this. Well done, @RepDavid for sponsoring a bill that would authorize Letters of Marque against cybercriminals. We are about to see $3 trillion in stablecoins coming into the system. Neo-privateers are the only way. And this could fund the strategic.

Thoughtful piece by @sygnumofficial's Katalin Tischhauser: "Stablecoins now have a green light. What’s next for CFOs?" via @CFODive.

Even with legislation in place, adoption will still require a willingness to reimagine how corporate funds are allocated, writes Sygnum Bank’s Katalin Tischhauser.

I applaud #GENIUSAct, but @JimHarper is right: law is not “genius” for #FinancialFreedom. Despite hype abt. banning #CBDCs, #GeniusAct makes stables subject to same Constitutionally suspect #FinancialSurveillance as existing banking system. Missed opportunity.

If you’re hunting for good news here’s something: Talkspace therapy is covered by most insurance plans and the average copay is only $15 (but most covered members pay $0).

Great day in the big town to discuss policy led digital network innovation @ethereum_NYC with my dear friend @perkinscr97.
Regulatory normalization has been the foundation of this crypto cycle. Years ago, @giancarloMKTS laid some of the first bricks. So much to unpack with him at @ethereum_NYC today!.

Incredible.
Capital Markets leaders just made 24/7 on-chain institutional financing a reality on Canton. Saturday, July 26, marked a first in enabling real-time, fully on-chain financing of U.S. Treasuries (UST) against USDC, swapped atomically, with the privacy that institutions demand.

Best of luck @sonalibasak !.
PROFESSIONAL NEWS: Today is my last day at Bloomberg. After almost 12 years with the company, saying goodbye to my friends and colleagues is a huge challenge. So much of my identity had been tied to the television set, and connected to the stories I’ve written and the sources

In few years in wake of Project Crypto, every new issue of securities - equities, debt, government - will either be tokenized and on chain, or will trade at a substantial discount to those that are. Extraordinary policy vision and leadership from @SECPaulSAtkins, @HesterPeirce,.
.@SECPaulSAtkins gave remarks at @A1Policy today on Project Crypto, an SEC Commission-wide initiative to modernize the securities rules and regulations to enable America’s financial markets to move on-chain.
