TOP 5 SEC L'S: THE LOSSES KEEP COMING! 🤡 |
It's Friday, Roadies! If you're anything like the Milk Man, you're ready for the weekend. Go easy on the milks. |
Today, let's kick back with some fun as we reflect on the SEC's biggest blunders that have given us all something to talk (and laugh) about. |
Let's break down the top 5 SEC L's that have rocked the crypto world. |
1/ Grayscale Bitcoin ETF reversal 🏆 |
The SEC denied Grayscale's application to convert its Bitcoin Trust into a spot ETF. |
The Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit ruled against the SEC, calling their reasoning "arbitrary and capricious." |
|
This decision criticized the SEC for inconsistent standards and set a significant precedent for future crypto ETF applications. |
2/ Ripple's legal victory over the SEC 🌊 |
Ripple challenged the SEC's classification of XRP as a security. |
|
The court ruled in favor of Ripple, questioning the SEC's authority and their interpretation of securities laws. |
3/ Ethereum's a commodity 🤷♂️ |
The SEC has been ambiguous about whether $ETH is a security or a commodity. Gary Gensler has even contradicted himself on this direct question over the years. |
|
The recent approval of an ETH ETF all but confirmed it's deemed a commodity. |
|
An SEC Twitter account was hacked, falsely announcing the approval of Bitcoin ETFs. |
The market reacted with big volatility before the SEC clarified the misinformation. Turned out they didn't even have 2FA security turned on…
Imagine that, the ones in charge of securities didn't have two factor authentication on their social media account. |
|
5/ Debt Box drama: The SEC's costly mistake 💸 |
The SEC froze DEBT Box's assets and put it into receivership, based on false and misleading evidence. |
|
A federal judge sanctioned the SEC and ordered them to pay $1.8 million in legal fees. |
The worst part? The taxpayers will foot the bill… Even when crypto wins, we lose LOL. |
But at the end of the day, the SEC's Slip-ups are our Gains. |
From courtroom defeats to cybersecurity fails, the SEC's recent blunders are paving the way for a more balanced regulatory landscape. |
These events are shaping the future of crypto regulation, proving that the road to clarity is at the end of the tunnel. |
We want to know! Will Gary still have his job by year end? |
A/ No shot - he's cooked before November |
B/ Buzzer beater - he'll get fired right around year end |
C/ Yes - Gensler's SEC era will continue in 2025

SHOULD YOU BE BULLISH ON MEMECOINS? 🚀 |
Memecoins get a lot of flack for lacking fundamentals, but guess what? They dodge one of the riskiest bullets in crypto investing: Token Unlocks. 💥 |
"VC tokens" pump for a few months, then the unlocks start, and early investors dump their bags, crushing the price. |
It's like a never-ending game of whack-a-mole... but with your money. |
Memecoins laugh in the face of this. Most are fair launches with supply management and technicals that are often better than "VC tokens". |
Plus, they're hilarious and enjoyable. Community matters! 🎉 |
OSF, the mastermind behind the wrecked guy NFT collection and a former Barclays trader, breaks down why he's all-in on meme coins this bull cycle on Milk Road Radio. |
