SEC punts. Gary Gensler has kicked the proverbial can down the road on the seven pending Bitcoin ETF applications until October, at least. This comes on the heels of the Grayscale victory over the SEC regarding an ‘arbitrary and capricious’ rejection of their Bitcoin ETF application last year. The SEC has 240 days to review each filing, and they’ve historically used all of those days to deliberate, so I wouldn’t hold your breath on a decision anytime soon.
YouTuber Fail. A crypto gaming YouTuber in Brazil made the ultimate rookie error and showed his crypto wallet seed phrase during a livestream this week, and his wallet got drained almost immediately. Roughly $60K was sniped, though some of it was returned. This and the Tabi grift in one week?
NFTs Aren’t Dead. NFT trading activity is down extremely bad, but big brand experimentation continues. Adidas launched a digital artist residency program during Korea Blockchain Week in Seoul. The German airline Lufthansa launched an NFT loyalty program on Polygon called Uptrip. Doodles x Crocs collab drops. Not nothing!
