even if the crypto bill passes, the next administration can undo it @GrabowskiDylan · read more
@GrabowskiDylan's point to @TrustlessState: sec and cftc rulemaking changes with the winds, and chevron deference stood for decades before it got overturned.
@GrabowskiDylan @TrustlessState Yes, but... rulemaking can change with the winds of the administration. It'll be great while Trump is in office, but if an AOC/Warren admin comes in 2029, then it can all be wiped away. @GrabowskiDylan @TrustlessState You're not wrong, but it's not out of the realm of possibilities. Chevron deference was overturned, which was the precedent for decades. I'm short-term positive that SEC/CFTC rulemaking will be net-positive.
