BREAKING: Is The Libra Dream Dead? Visa, Mastercard, Stripe, eBay leave Libra [Crypto Daily 3@3] pscp.tv/w/cHDphTE0Nzc1…
What we're talking about?

Are you kidding me? What the hell else are we talking about.

(That said, I did have to pre-record this one by about ten minutes to go be with fam and MISSED TON BECAUSE THIS INDUSTRY IS INSANE)
My 🔥🔥 take

1. Killing things in the crib when you don't understand them sucks.

2. It looks bad but death is not guaranteed.

Crypto Daily 3@3 - 10.17 | Does Bitcoin Institutionalization Threaten Cypherpunk Values? pscp.tv/w/cHi4vTE0Nzc1…
What are we talking about:

The last 24 hours, Bitcoin Twitter has been in a wide ranging debate about 1) the relative importance of censorship resistance, sound money and other attributes; 2) what impact institutionalization has on the underlying cypherpunk values at root
My takes:

1. I don't understand why there would be a debate about censorship resistance vs. sound money principles. They're not opposing forces.

2. There *IS* an inherent tension in the alliance of an existing financial power structure and this new system.

Crypto Daily 3@3 - 10.15 | Telegram under Fincen investigation? / The new, skinner Libra Assoc pscp.tv/w/cHYW6TE0Nzc1…
What we’re discussing?

1. New reports from @BLOCKTVnews that the SEC isn’t Telegram’s only problem but that they’re under investigation by Fincen around money laundering issues

2. The new, sleeker, slimmer Libra Association and board of directors.
@BLOCKTVnews My takes:

1. @avichal breakdown of the SEC action against Telegram is really worth reading. Effectively argued that the issue is that it's JUST Telegram people building this crypto in a way that will benefit them; not something regarding SAFTs.

And on FB...

Narrative Watch 10.14 | Regulators Get Rowdy (aka Why You Might Owe Money On BSV) pscp.tv/w/cHS9NDE0Nzc1…
What we're discussing:

Multiple agencies & Senate getting up in crypto.

Specifically:

+SEC says no to Bitwise ETF
+SEC says HELL no to Telegram token sale
+IRS says you may owe money on BSV
+Senators say they may kneecap you if you work with Libra
+CFTC says ETH=commodity.
My takes:

+ETF is a long haul
+TG action seems baaaad for the idea of SAFTs
+IRS probably didn't mean for you to owe money on BSV but it might be more confusing no anyway
+CFTC comments are one bright spot

#Breaking: Just in - Netanyahu and Gantz tied at 36 seats each, @newsisrael13 exit poll shows. #IsraelElections2019
To be clear these are just the ballots counted in foreign countries! The ballots in #Israel will be counted now. So Gantz has nothing to declare victory right now. First clear exit polls over 40 minutes.
#Update: Just in - With more of the votes being counted in #Israel it seems like Lukid party is jumping a little bit ahead of the Blue and White party! #IsraelElections2019
