While some dismissed it as spectacle, organizers called it a “thank you” for Trump’s support of the industry. Analysts noted, however, that Bitcoin’s recent bull run began before Trump’s advocacy, raising questions about the stunt’s narrative.

HYPE, the native token of decentralized derivatives exchange Hyperliquid, hit an all-time high near $60 despite competition from rival DEX Aster, backed by former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao (CZ).
CZ rarely shares charts
But he posted $ASTER. Why? Because it’s a direct Hyperliquid rival; and HL keeps stealing Binance’s market share.
He’s shilling Aster under his wing. I grabbed $30K at 0.26, adding $150–200K more if it doesn’t pump tomorrow

💡 Feature of the Day:
Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong declared that the “Digital Asset Market Clarity Act” has strong bipartisan support and described it as a “freight train leaving the station.”
I was in DC the last few days working to get MARKET STRUCTURE legislation passed for crypto. This is how we ensure the crypto industry can be built here in America, driving innovation and protecting consumers, and making sure we never have another Gary Gensler trying to take your

The bill would clearly define the regulatory roles of the SEC and CFTC, ending years of uncertainty that have hampered crypto innovation in the U.S.
🚨NEW: Following up on my tweet last night about the @BankingGOP roundtable that was held this morning. In addition to @IOHK_Charles, @Ripple and @a16z, I’m told representatives from @krakenfx, @coinbase, @multicoincap, @paradigm and @circle were also in attendance. Meeting

Armstrong emphasized that clearer rules will protect consumers and allow domestic companies to thrive, while warning against banking industry resistance to stablecoin adoption.
Funny thing about “closed-door” sessions in DC… they somehow turned into meetings with House + Senate members on both sides last week. And then somehow public.
I was there the whole time promoting and educating, market structure, and why clarity matters for developers,
