Shopping on the internet in 2026: Step #1: search for specific product Step #2: scroll through pages of promoted material advertising competitors' products

On its own, offering markets on tokenized pairs for digital assets - even assets across different regulatory regimes - is efficient and innovative. Thinking through how to calculate the tax obligations for cross-asset trading gives me a headache. The headache gets worse when considering how trade reporting obligations and surveillance works.

The final cloture vote doesnt tell the entire story amongst Rs. Some of their support for the final bill mightve been contingent on certain amendments like this. A lot of people said it was all about ethics. If this amendment was filed with this level of support, its safe to say it wasnt all about ethics. It wouldve caused an uproar at the 11th hour. It reminds me of 2021 and the broker rule in IIJA. Crypto was caught flatfooted then too. I only say this because the 49-50 vote doesnt necessarily offer an accurate guage of R support moving forward. Hence my prior statement that crypto needs to reevaluate its advocacy.

In the wake of the political whiplash on data centers, this shift should be taken seriously. A bull market may only exacerbate this narrative. When industry campaign dollars flip from political asset to liability, doubling down isnt the answer. news.bgov.com/bloomberg-gove…
