James E. Thorne(@DrJStrategy):Elections have consequences. Democrats blocked the Clarity Act in the Senate over Trump’s crypto holdings. The bill would have required covered platforms to register, use qualified custodians, segregate customer assets, and allow faster temporary freezes. Weeks later Binance was hit by the largest crypto hack on record (~$6.3B). The safeguards the bill would have put in place never took effect. This is what happens when politicians vote on political vendettas instead of policy.
