Just think of how insane this argument would be if we change the subjects of the action: "Because some journalists have bank accounts, the Trump admin did not target journalistic outfits for debanking." Or more deranged: "Because some black people have bank accounts, redlining was not real." Given we have concrete evidence in the form of denials and refusal to allow new business while with nearly 100% odds banking crypto lead to consent orders, the idea that one or two banks slipped through and/or JPM had the political heft to fight back is simply not an indication there is not a problem. In fact, the paucity of examples of activity is proof there was a problem. You know, beyond the actual written statements of regulators themselves. Denial here is ignorance or willful malice.

unfortunately the yale academics are at it again and are trying to gaslight everyone into thinking that debanking crypto didn't happen. it did, everyone dealt with it, everyone knows it, and the evidence is excruciatingly clear. full treatment soon withoutwarningresearch.com/p/where-debank…

BlackRock just filed for a Securitized Income Active ETF which will hold a bunch of dif acronyms including ABS, MBS, CMO, CLO and TBA. Fidelity has similar ETF and it has $2.1b in aum, amazing how fast these things grow

I *literally* just tweeted this. But I really can't believe how fast things are moving at the SEC

The @SECGov just put out staff guidance on memecoins. TL;DR: not securities

i feel like i'm living in some alternate reality

Also. This was pretty much the stance of the prior admin. So this isn't a 180. They didn't really touch or do anything for or against memecoins. but they also refused to issue this type of explicit guidance which i think is the correct way to handle this stuff

SEC is working overtime with all of their moves over the last few weeks. Genuinely impressive. Really did not expect things to be moving this fast or unwinding this fast.

Reading @HesterPeirce's older writings then re-reading her request for comments to the Crypto Task Force. Not sure there's another person on the planet a better fit for the job. If she has her way, US cap markets will have a Renaissance.

To be clear, i just needed to restart/refresh everything and its working like a charm again. But the timing is/was rather comical lol

The @SECGov commission has a closed meeting today at 2PM EST where agenda items include “resolution of litigation claims and other matters relating to examinations and enforcement proceedings.” Could be that commissioners are gearing up to vote to finalize the dismissals of the @coinbase and @Consensys cases today.

How likely do you think it is that Trump will follow through on 25% tariffs for Mexico and Canada due 3/4?

I agree, $PRIV represents a “seismic shift” in ETFs in that it found a solution (using Apollo) to allow a fund to go beyond the 15% illiquid holdings limit. Whether this ETF is a hit or not it opens up a whole new world. Nice write up from @bpmoriarty morningstar.com/bonds/groundbr…

BOOM: looks like SPDR Apollo IG Public & Private Credit ETF has been made effective and preparing to launch. Private credit can be up to 10-35% of the ETF. 70bp fee. This is potential game changing launch esp w Apollo involved, h/t @bpmoriarty for catching the filing update.

Whenever bitcoin has a 10% pullback after going up 50%

ETF investors doing what they do: buying the dip everyone is so afraid of as +$13B(!) went into ETFs yesterday with Trading Crowd faves $SPY and $QQQ leading. So far they nailed it as stocks up pre-market. Nvidia will be huge tho. Aside, $188b YTD is wild, on pace for $1.3T
