Something is happening in Gamestop … again

In addition: the laws of 1946 could finally be left behind

🍋 News dropps: Bitboy is arrested, Hawk Tuah Girl gets a documentary + more

🍍 Market taste today

Bitcoin He took a quick photo of Espresso yesterday and briefly jumped at $ 88k.

One of the reasons for the mini bomb: The BTC ETF saw tickets for the eighth consecutive day (the longest positive streak of 2025 so far).

In addition to that, Gamestop – The stock of memes that once broke Wall Street – Apparently it will go Buy Bitcoin for your Treasury.

Which was not so shocking, TBH. The Gamestop CEO, Ryan Cohen, published a photo with he BTC Maxi Michael Saylor a month ago:

The problem: we continue to receive positive news such as this … And yet Bitcoin continues to fall approximately 20% since its maximum of January of all time. Have made sense? 🤨

Good, The thing is, andVery still nervous about Trump’s rates, which are supposed to fall next Wednesday, April 2.

(They were pushed one day so that people do not believe it is a joke of the fools of April hahaha).

Nobody knows exactly who or what will they pointAnd markets hate this confusion.

This unstable mood appeared in the last Consumer trust Report (also known as the economic vibrate check): it fell to a Minimum of 12 years.

So yes, you vibrate = not great = Consumers are likely to spend less and avoid financial risks.

But there is another face: If the economy begins to look too fragile, The Fed could be relieved by interest rates To avoid worsening things.

And lower rates = scope of cryptography, since cheap loans and a weaker dollar often lead investors to higher risk assets.

Now we have to look Friday inflation data – Fed Fed’s favorite inflation metric. If it shows that prices are cooling, markets could get excited. But… Back to the racies, I suppose.

Anyway, I hate saying it again, but we are in waiting mode and see. Still.

🥝 Memecoin harvest

If earning money with a rat coin is wrong, I don’t want to be right ... ❤️

The SEC continues its brightness, from Crypto’s hatret #1 to a Useful friend 😄👍

On Friday, they began their series of round tables centered on crypto “Spring sprint towards cryptographic clarity”.

And the big question was: How do we classify digital assets?

(Because at this time, the rules are based more or less on vibrations).

This is what left that:

1/ Howey’s test is … no

Howey’s test is a legal tool used to discover if something is a “security.” And many agreed It really doesn’t work well for crypto.

I mean, who would have Thunk? 😯 A 1946 test, made for orange farms, isn’t it ideal for cryptography? Crazy …

Some suggested to use a “Control test” On the other hand, basically, if no unique entity controls a cryptographic project, it may not be security. But that could be equally messy, since you would still have to review each project one by one.

2/ Who is the boss here?

There was also debate about which agency should regulate cryptography.

3/ Industry wants clarity

Some people pointed out that cryptographic companies are not angry with the rules, they just want to know what they are.

An idea that arose was a Temporary frame – Something like giving cryptographic companies a learning permit, while the SC discovers a long -term plan.

In addition, someone reminded everyone that SEC has the power of Adjust the definitions. So technically, they could say: “Hey, this is not security,” if they really wanted.

4/ judicial cases remain important

Even when the SEC tries to resolve things, the courts shape how cryptography is legally treated.

The panelists made it clear: The demands remain an important part of the image and will probably be for a time.

So, even if new rules enter, the threat of being sued is still very real for cryptographic companies.

And that was just warming. There is Four round round tables come:

• April 11 – Between a block and a difficult place: adaptation regulation for cryptographic trade

• April 25 – Know your custodian: key considerations for cryptography custody

• May 12 – Tokenization – Ochain mobile assets: where tradfi and defi are found

• June 6 – Defi and the American spirit

So, for the first time in an eternity, it seems that the SEC is having a conversation with market participants.

Progress can be slow, and the way ahead is still a bit full of potholes, but hey … At least we are no longer trapped in 1946.

🗞 Final update of domain cases (hopefully)

So, do you remember last week when we said that the SEC withdrew its appeal against Ripple? (Did you miss that squeeze? Go up to date here.

Well, at that time, Ripple still had to make a great decision: if he continue advancing with his cross appeal.

And now, Ripple Clo Stuart Alderoty posted What called its final update especially the drama of the sec v ripple.

It is official: Ripple is dropping its cross appeal.

So what is the final treatment?

• The SEC maintains $ 50 million of the original fine of $ 125 million, and the remaining $ 75 million will return to Ripple;

• The SEC will ask the Court that eliminate the standard court order that previously pushed – This means that Ripple will no longer be legally restricted to sell XRP To institutional investors.

All this must still go through the usual routine of the final game: a vote by the commission, some legal documents and the court signing.

But yes, that is the last chapter. The fight is over … For truth this time.
