There are two bills. SB1373, and SB1025. 1373 does include the ability to invest in crypto ( a general sense) not just Bitcoin. Are you against these bills because they are not BITCOIN specific? SB1025 - allows other public funds to invest as well. I have some plausible reasons why it does not state just Bitcoin specifically, but not sure.

biophysicsguy

To me a politician's word or lack of word means nothing to me. Their actions are what matter. The fact remains that she has vetoed a pro-Bitcoin bill (SB1236). I don't care that her reason is that she didn't get something else that she wanted. If she signs a Bitcoin reserve bill, she will have demonstrated to me (through actions) that she is not anti-Bitcoin. We'll see.

HSuke

Both SB1025 (Bitcoin only reserve) and SB1373 (digital asset reserve) are likely going to be vetoed due to lack of a new state budget. Only the digital assets one, SB1373, has enough support to override the veto.

tldr; The Arizona House of Representatives has passed two bills, SB1025 and SB1373, that could allow the state to establish a Bitcoin or digital assets reserve. SB1025, which permits up to 10% investment in Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, passed with 31 votes in favor and 25 opposed. SB1373, aimed at creating a state-level digital assets reserve, passed with 37 votes in favor and 19 against. State Representative Jeff Weninger noted the legislation aligns with similar efforts in other states and positions Arizona for future adoption of Bitcoin reserves. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

Arizona’s two Bitcoin Reserve Bills are now scheduled for Monday for a third reading and a potential final vote. The two bills are SB1373 and SB1025, which aim to make the state the first in the US to hold Bitcoin in its treasury. SB1373 focuses on a digital assets strategic reserve fund, while SB1025 addresses public monies and virtual currency investment

I don't even know where to start with how stupid, shortsighted, and inexperienced this take is. The outlook for crypto currency has literally never been brighter. We have legitimized the space drastically with repealing SB1, so banks can not issue bitcoin and crypto products and hold bitcoin on the books like they can with other financial assets. The SBR was just passed. The president of the US just started a bitcoin mining company and want to provide incentives for other companies to mine btc in the US. Here you are with your finger up your ass pretending that you know what you're talking about. Ususally, do people get rich during bear markets or bull markets? Both. **You need the bear market buying opportunities to have significant bull market gains.** If you aren't buying in a bear market and have the cash, you're just a shortsighted idiot who should let their 401k manager do all of this for you because you are bad at it.

in general ,what does the new texas satate law say about purchasing bitcoin for its treasury or something # ChatGPT said: Texas has enacted Senate Bill 21, known as the "Texas Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and Investment Act," which establishes a state-managed reserve fund dedicated to investing in Bitcoin and potentially other cryptocurrencies. This reserve is to be managed by the Texas Comptroller, who is granted broad authority to acquire, exchange, sell, and manage cryptocurrency investments. [LegiScan](https://legiscan.com/TX/text/SB21/id/3156447?utm_source=chatgpt.com) Key provisions of the law include: * **Funding Sources**: The reserve will be financed through legislative appropriations and donations from private citizens and entities.[Texas Senate](https://senate.texas.gov/news.php?id=20250218a&utm_source=chatgpt.com) * **Investment Strategy**: The Comptroller has the discretion to invest in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies that have maintained an average market capitalization of at least $500 billion over the prior 12 months—a criterion currently met only by Bitcoin.[Texas Observer](https://www.texasobserver.org/texas-bitcoin-strategic-reserve-senate-bill-21/?utm_source=chatgpt.com) * **Reserve Administration**: An advisory committee, comprising the Comptroller and three cryptocurrency investment experts appointed by the Comptroller, will provide guidance on the reserve's management and investment policies.[LegiScan](https://legiscan.com/TX/text/SB21/id/3156447?utm_source=chatgpt.com) * **Asset Management**: Cryptocurrency holdings are required to be stored in cold storage, ensuring they are kept offline and protected from unauthorized access.[Decrypt](https://decrypt.co/298413/us-states-considering-bitcoin-reserves?utm_source=chatgpt.com) The establishment of this reserve positions Texas as a potential leader in integrating cryptocurrency into state financial strategies, aiming to enhance financial resilience and explore new investment opportunities.

tldr; Texas has introduced HB 4258, a bill proposing a $250 million Bitcoin reserve from the state’s economic stabilization fund, following the earlier SB 778. The new bill caps investments and allows municipalities to allocate up to $10 million to digital assets. If passed, it will take effect on Sept. 1, 2025. This move aligns with broader trends in the U.S., where 21 states are exploring similar frameworks. Texas aims to leverage its strategic position in energy, tech, and capital markets to lead in Bitcoin adoption. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

"On March 7, 2025, legislators passed Senate Bill 21, which gives the green light to the state to direct public funds toward Bitcoin and other digital assets." "With the [passing of SB 21](https://legiscan.com/TX/bill/SB21/2025), Texas can now move forward with its plans. The reserve will hold a percentage of the state’s public funds in BTC, but the exact amount has yet to be confirmed. Supporters believe this will allow Texas to protect its assets while adopting new financial ideas."

Any liberal worth their salt is pro bitcoin, and there are actually many pro bitcoin Democrats. You can see how the Texas Senate voted here: [https://legiscan.com/TX/rollcall/SB21/id/1507710](https://legiscan.com/TX/rollcall/SB21/id/1507710) Note: Only 1 Democrat (of 10) voted Nay. Whereas 4 Republicans (of 20) voted Nay.

tldr; The Texas Senate passed the Bitcoin strategic reserve bill SB-21 in a 25-5 vote on March 6. Introduced by State Senator Charles Schwertner, the bill aims to strengthen Texas's balance sheet by holding Bitcoin as a valuable, scarce asset. Initially focused solely on Bitcoin, the bill was later amended to include other digital assets following a federal directive to explore a digital asset stockpile. Lawmakers clarified that Bitcoin is more akin to gold than a competitor to the US dollar. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

tldr; Georgia, USA, has introduced a second Bitcoin reserve bill (SB 228), allowing the state to invest in Bitcoin without restrictions. The bill involves provisions for state deposit institutions, sets limits on investments, establishes requirements for secure handling, regulates lending of Bitcoin, and repeals conflicting laws. This follows a previous proposal allowing the state treasurer to invest in Bitcoin. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.

tldr; Lawmakers in Arizona have proposed a bill, SB1025, known as the "Arizona Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Act," which would allow the state to invest up to 10% of public funds in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. The bill was approved by the state Senate Finance Committee and is co-sponsored by Wendy Rogers and Jeff Weninger. If passed, Arizona would be the first US state to officially invest public funds in Bitcoin. The bill aims to protect state purchasing power and potentially reduce the need for program cuts or tax hikes. It now moves to the Senate Rules Committee for further review. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.

< Bitcoin is an open source project that will have the best and brightests solving any issues over the next 100 years. > It already had those folks. And still has lots of them. And many of them have vast amounts of personal wealth. The issues are here. Not 100 years out. Right now. And these have not been solved. Despite every advantage. It’s been known that it needs scaling solutions, such as Layer 2’s, for … how long ? 5 years; no 10. Minimum 8, yeah ? Where are they ? < neither of us will be around to see the block rewards go to zero > ?? Bizarre. 1. As you well know the last hundred years of Subsidy is almost insignificant. 2. The Subsidy decays exponentially. Nobody is concerned about going from slightly-above-zero to zero. That will be near 2140. Hell - will be shocked if this can make it to 2040. As in, 15 years from now, or so. If it can’t pay for Secuity - then - it can’t pay for Secuity ! Security Budget was 1.5% of Market Cap last cycle. Now at ~ 0.8% of MC this cycle. After 2028 it will be 0.4% of MC. Etc …. That’s *IF* the coin price doubles. To keep dollar value of SB at the level it was *last cycle*. The question is : at what point will the Security Budget be so weak that the chain will be attacked ? . <Talk of a mining bailout is wild, and barely based in any kind of reality > Agree. It’s insane. But that’s exactly what key Bitcoin leaders are trying to push for. Hell - one guy even wrote a book proposing that US Gov & Military would start mining ! Government Bailout. He knows there will not be sufficient revenue to pay for sufficient mining to provide enough security. So he wants the Gov’t to do it. With taxpayer money. They might succeed too - for a while. They just might get a politician in that would grant a bailout. They’re sniffing around the orange guy right now. In return for massive funding, and votes, he promises to pump their bags - by getting Govt involved in 1. Owning, and 2. Mining. Crazy.

Like I said, this is a multipronged attack on the entire industry.

As usual reddit consists of almost entirely low information sophomoric morons that think they’re the most informed and are eager to show everyone else how condescending they are. It’s so incredibly frustrating. This is very much a multipronged attack. I am close friends with pro crypto lobbyists on Capitol Hill. Dems hate crypto. And if they win big this year this industry will be set back for a long, long time in the US.

And if we see a doubling of Price, but a Halving of Subsidy, (Apr 2024), Security Budget just maintains level. In Dollar terms. But this will render a SB at 0.8% of Market Cap. What level can it drop to, and still maintain security ? Unless we see Tx Fees increase massively. Can anyone out there forecast Tx Fees accumulating to > $20 Million per day ?

OK, let me be honest but also biased. I work at SwissBorg, which technically is not an exchange, it is a crypto wealth management platform, which includes also an exchange aggregator. It encompasses 5 exchanges (Binance, Kraken, BitFinex, HitBTC, Huobi) that are seamlessly integrated into our "smart engine", an algorithm that always hunts for the best exchange rate. Being an exchange aggregator, on SwissBorg it is possible to even swap synthetic pairs, for ex you can directly swap PaxGold for UniSwap token. On a traditional exchange, you should first go to exchange PaxGold to ETH and then ETH > UNI, as you'll hardly find any PaxGold - UNI pair on Binance or elsewhere. And of all of these exchanges liquidity is available with just one account. You use them without having to register in each one of them, avoiding repetitive and useless KYC. To sum up, SwissBorg can be the best choice, due to: * An easy interface that makes SB the crypto app that even your parents can use! * Best rate over 5 of the major exchanges * Synthetic pairs with just one swap * DeFi accessible with one click without setting a Metamask wallet, with always new vaults where to invest in * And one of the last crypto platforms left with a fiat gateway, position that we are bound to reinforce as our compliance team is the top of the top! :) * Yes, you can change your crypto to EUR and withdraw the profits to any bank account in the EU, even Revolut \^\^ For intellectual honesty, I'm not going to post any affiliate link or any link whatsoever. Just google "SwissBorg" and DYOR! ;-)

< Bitcoin … It is officially the most secure anything in history >. I don’t understand this. Certainly it *has been* secure. In the past. When Security Budget was extremely high - started out near 40% of Market Cap. Then drifted down to 30%, 20%, 10%. Currently sits at ~ 1.6% of Market Cap. Is that sufficient ? Sure - I would say it is. For now. . But the security Budget Halving is only six months away. Subsidy drops to 450 coins per day. How do you keep the Security Budget high enough ? Increase in coin price will help. A bit. If it doubles in price, we can get back up to the $26 M / d range. But then the Market Cap has doubled. Making the network a more appealing target of attack. But the Security Budget stays flat at ~$26 M / d. IOW, the SB is now 0.8% of Market Cap. Repeat in 2028: Price doubles. Market Cap doubles. But SB stays level. So then it’s at 0.4% of MC. Repeat in 2032. So SB goes lower, and lower; That’s with the coin doubling in price, each Halving. But what if the coin *does not* double in price ?

SB 401 was signed into law by the Governor as of just after 11 p.m. on October 13th. It is now October 14th, the clock is ticking down and no action has yet been taken on the worst digital asset bill, AB 39 (the proposed bitlicense). Today the Governor will either sign or veto it, but I don't think he will do nothing because doing nothing would mean it would become law without his review. I hope he takes the long view and vetoes this again as he did last year.

First, let me take a moment to bask in their physical beauty. So stunning and brave! Ok.. does anyone PLEASE have a link to give to me of the guy/ name of the guy/ episode of the guy who had SB-F on his youtube or facebook “show” where he interviewed him excitedly and talked about how SB-F is so rich but how modest he is & he drives a piece of garbage car, does all kinds of selfless philanthropy stuff.. it’s driving me crazy that I can’t find that video now… To give you more clues: I randomly saw this excited dudes video on facebook? Youtube? He has an accent. I think he was Israeli. Dark hair, brown eyes, “tan” skin. And he was just gushing about SB-F and all his wonderful attributes. God i want to watch that again…. It popped on my phone, randomly and I knew virtually nothing about crypto, never have heard of SB-F or any of these clowns…. But I was so immensely entertained by that “inside expose on him” and I remember instantly thinking that that sounded like complete bullshit. And that SB-F looks like a total slob that had just rolled out of bed. All that “he’s using crypto currency to better mankind and help people!” Talk sounded to me like utter bullshit! I think the host / guy I am trying to describe had a name like “Alphie” or something.. I want to re-watch that again because when I saw it, i was laughing my ass off. Now, it would be even more hilarious to see !

You clearly don’t have a fucking clue how public filings works. The SEC doesn’t at all review the health or underlying assets of a company that wants to go public. All you need to do is fill out the necessary paperwork (Form S-1 or SB-1) and provide the necessary disclosure documentation for review and approval, and follow the SECs tender rules etc… They couldn’t give a shit less what you’re selling as long as you’re being transparent about the business financials, associated risks of buying the stock, and not misleading shareholders.

You know what is funny? or sad? was the first time I ever heard of this clown, there was some over excited Israeli traveler youtube guy who I watched a few episodes from. I can not recall for the life of me his name or the name of his show. But he has SB-F on and that messy air nerd who looked like he had just rolled out if bed was talking about his duty to help under privileged people and do charity and I just instinctively felt that it was all like 1 big huge joke. Then literally a few weeks later, the scandal hit & I can not find that travel show guy anywhere. He was on facebook or youtube Anyone know the name of that guy snd his show? Pretty sure he was an Israeli national

I don’t really know tbh, I did it for like a month or two, got enough money to put that initial small chunk into crypto and didn’t really continue with it. At the time they had a few different game promotions where you had to play x game to a certain level, with like 3000-5000 SB rewards (30-50 actual dollars), and I had completed all the ones that weren’t insanely time consuming for the reward. Overall it was fun for wasting time and getting a little bit of money from it but it’s literally spending like 6 hours playing a mobile video game for 20 bucks lol.

'Bad Money' is **downstream of bad law** and the perversion of The Law from an instrument of justice into an instrument of plunder. I would not deny the effects of bad money that SB points out in the video, but rather I suggest that 'good money' does not emerge and will not be prevalent among the masses under a system of 'bad law'. *“When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it.”* *― Frédéric Bastiat* *"When law and morality contradict each other, the citizen has the cruel alternative of either losing his moral sense or losing his respect for the law."* *― Frédéric Bastiat* I'd suggest that bad money is simply a symptom with correlation to the degeneracy we're witnessing, but not direct causation. I'd suggest the causation is right there in Bastiat's own words, the perversion of THE LAW. James Madison said a '*frequent recurrence to fundamental principles is a necessary safeguard against the danger of degeneracy to which republics are liable'.* What are is the fundamental principle of THE LAW? or at least, THE LAW as so designed by our American Experiment 1776? Its right there in the Declaration of Independence; All men are created equal, and have inalienable natural rights of Life, Liberty and Property. And to secure those rights, governments are established among men drawing Just Authority/Powers from consent of the governed. Oh, btw, that fundamental principle was violated by a consent less form of government they established. There is not personal consent mechanism. Hence, there are no Just Powers. There was an attempt to establish a system of justice, but any monopoly on violence has no personal consent mechanism and will drift into degeneracy over time. See Lysander Spooner for more on that...

This happens with new technology. It is why more people use Midjourney over Stable Diffusion (even though SB has checkpoints and ControlNet….prompt in a trained style and use any reference image for the pose of your image) Sometimes the reason there is a small cohort of early adopters who seem to get lucky is the barrier of entry is too high for people. You can just buy a memecoin on a Cex Moons you need to participate here (over the last 12 years I realize there are way more lurkers than we suspect) deploy a wallet, bridge between a roll up and an anytrust L2, swap then transfer back to the Cex, cash out and send to bank. Again, most people just buy a memecoin on a Cex and leave it on their. Some of us bought avatars last July. We remember all the tutorials posted on how to simply list it on Osea. I don’t think we would have gotten so lucky if there had been a native marketplace. When CT flooded in they sought out “blue chips” and because the supply was low on Osea the price rocketed up quickly.

It’s always important to remain skeptical, but simultaneously being open to new information so good on you. CBDC’s keep me awake at night on occasion. I’ve read the concept papers published around the world and it’s infuriating. Some are far more upfront and somewhat honest about the idea of savings limits, expiry dates, and various other systems of control over individual finances. The concept papers that mentioned these ideas try to rationalize it by calling saving ‘hoarding’ and protects the economy from fearful reactions of society, and mentioned that expiry dates would insure a strong economy that guarantees consistent spending. On top of all of this there would be an Orwellian level of tracking, and the places an individual can spend their digital currency at is limited by a regulatory body that must first approve it. Even though many of these concept papers don’t outright mention these concepts I have no doubt of its implementation over time of CBDC’s are successfully introduced. Conversely I find stable coins to be far less detrimental to our individual freedoms. I’ve also seen a paper suggesting Texas may be looking into a gold backed stable-coin A link to the bill in regard to a state stable-coin: [DIGITAL GOLD CURRENCY](https://capitol.texas.gov/tlodocs/88R/billtext/html/SB02334I.htm)

As an FYI it appears that SB 770 has only been introduced. It has not been voted on by the house or senate in Texas, and is not all that close to being a law. It seems it was introduced in Feb and has not gotten out of committee. Given that the Texas Legislature only meets in odd years, and the current session ends May 29th, the chance of this becoming law is basically 0%. Even if there is support, it likely wouldn't be law until 2025 at the earliest.

Governor Hobbs said the bill's definition of blockchain technology is too broad and may hamper policymaking efforts concerning an "emergent and potentially energy-intensive economic activity." *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

SB 1236 aims to bar local governments from prohibiting or restricting residents from running a blockchain node for mining activities."

Interesting, this reminds me of the proposed digital currency posted here recently. The tittle suggested a CBDC but upon reading it became immediately obvious that it was in fact a proposal for a stable coin by Texas lawmakers. This stablecoin is intended to be backed by gold, and I found it to be highly interesting. Edit: found the original link [a digital currency backed by gold;](https://capitol.texas.gov/tlodocs/88R/billtext/html/SB02334I.htm)

But during the 2021 winter storm they weren’t “providing energy”. They would have lost power just like everyone else in the state. You’re right that it’s a contract but I hope they fix it with Texas SB 1751.

so for the record thigs looks like a terrible game, and I can't translate I thinkl its chinese. But right from their TOS page (j) nothing you do on or in relation to the Madhead Service and/or the Content will transfer any intellectual property rights to you or license you to exercise any intellectual property rights; and 6.3 Virtual Money is a category of Content, so the purchase of Virtual Money grants you only a limited, non-transferrable and non-sublicensable license to use such Virtual Money to access and purchase Virtual Goods.

Is it in chinese that they're advertaising ownership? Otherwise it looks like you assumed ownership here..

Worlds worst policy..I know let’s have an ai art shot of SB from the back walking into the ocean!!

Would you say it is not...tether-ed to SB? 😎

Summary ; At present, companies like Riot Platforms–a 100-acre facility based in Rockdale–use so much energy that when electricity is in short supply, the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) pays them to limit their energy use. SB 1751 will ban this kind of relationship, as well as require these companies to coordinate directly with ERCOT in a power emergency. Furthermore, it will curtain any existing tax incentives for blockchain mining companies to move to Texas. Saved you the click !!

All my homies hate SB 1751.

Fuck SB 1751.

>You’re linking a website called “transgender law” to support an argument Unsurprisingly, the group of people who do the most research on trans people are trans groups. They support each rating with an explanation you can explore if you care to click on the states as mentioned. >You’re right, facts don’t care about my feelings. This “anti-trans” fallacy that you’ve bought into is entirely a product of a specific group of ppl tapping into your feelings to make you believe in something thats not happening. I literally provided links. And the overwhelming majority of Republican politicians are voting for anti trans and lgbt laws. >Are there law being put into place to make sure young girl athletes are not being forced to compete with boys in girls-only sports? Yep. Is this anti-transgender? Nope. Is it being called anti-trans? Yep. Do you know how many competitive trans athletes there are in schools? Do the research, the number will shock you. This one is more of a value take though - specifically prepubescent it doesn't really matter what they identify as, man women or vegetable. postpubescent there are avantages that matter, and we already have laws in place. It's why female athletes like Semenca get bans because their natural test is so high it falls fouls of gender gating laws. >Are the laws being put in place that ban elementary school teachers from discussing sexuality with very young children? Yup. Is it anti-trans? Nope. Is it being called anti-trans? Yep. That's not specifically anti trans, but it's anti LGBT. They aren't telling kids about dicks being cut off or about gay people fucking eachother up the ass, they are saying shit like "men can feel love for eachother" and "people who don't fall under man or women gender roles exist". If you think that's not ok that's up to you but I strongly disagree. >Going up a bit - What do you consider “anti-trans”? Lets ignore any that I think are contentious and look at those that are strictly infringements of civil liberty: UT SB0093 UT SB0100 ND SB2231 ID S1016. There are several others that I consider trans or lgbt phobic but are more controversial in nature ( ranging from dragshowstorytime to gender affirming care for minors)

I’m not much of a sports fan so these appeal to me much more than the WC or SB ones. Pretty stoked!

superberde

No, but I got Chiefs #15 (SB winners), I emailed "sports agency" of the player but I didn't get any answer... time to go to OpenSea, I gess xD

SoftPenguins

First SBF fraud then SVB. Think I’m gonna stay away from anything SB related for a while.

therealcpain

Well considering it was just announced that [US government will rescue SVB deposits](https://stocks.apple.com/AhMVbRqT1SB2VOOLcG1tBOQ)… It’s a really sticky situation as the reason these banks are suffering because they held long term low yield government bonds

FU_Pagame

Fun fact if you had inverses Jim Cramers bets on SBV, FRB, and SB you’d be a millionaire right now

For the most part they are great. What worries me is the amount of people you see claiming that they have been locked out of their accounts, it's not regulated so they can do whatever they deem is right. Hopefully they don't become FTX 2.0 and CZ becomes best friends with SB in the court yard.

If you live in Illinois I urge you to contact your house representative on this matter. You can find your representative by your address at: Illinoispolicy.org/maps/illinois-house/# After looking that up you can also look up more contact details at: Ilga.gov/house/ I just left voice messages and an email urging my representative to oppose SB1887 in its current form as it is unworkable and would drive talent, innovation, and business in the crypto industry out of state.

And SB in SBF stands for Still on Bail

DukeThom

Truth - they’ve always been slick wit it. I liked their SB commercial from a year ago too

If anyone here is from Illinois, please consider contacting your representative. Look at this recently proposed bill: > (b) A blockchain network shall process a court-ordered blockchain transaction without the need for the private key associated with the digital property or smart contract. Each blockchain operator that has mined, validated, or otherwise participated in processing a blockchain transaction is liable to this State for a violation of subsection (b). The court shall assess a civil penalty of between $5,000 and $10,000 for each day that the blockchain network fails to comply with the order. https://www.ilga.gov/legislation/fulltext.asp?DocName=&SessionId=112&GA=103&DocTypeId=SB&DocNum=1887&GAID=17&LegID=146730&SpecSess=&Session=

Wait, was the Charles/Cardano SB ad real? What the fuck?

TrifBoi

No, I'd feel way better about an exchange using the money to just work the way it's intended rather then throw it through the window on some SB ad. Also, vast majority of world knows about crypto, so it wouldn't bring THAT many new people I'd say

AJoyfulProcess

I like that they had neutral options for the SB avatars. I like football, and I like free NFTs...but I'll be d@mned if I'm going to sport any chiefs or eagles schwag.

sjshady0169

Chiefs, and confirmed no ads for SB.

TheDalesReport_

It kinda wasn't his fault because he doesn't have a fiduciary responsibility to anyone to conduct a thorough due diligence on the company. But last year, Tom Brady said: “FTX is the safest and easiest way to buy crypto” in a SB 56 ad. I guess the NFL want to avoid this kind of stuff under the smoke clears.

DukeThom

I don’t think so either, but my bet would be Coinbase if there is a crypto SB ad.
