No this is not about Trump or Biden, or bullet holes. But I can't promise I won't digress towards to end. (Quite possible if I have a morning coffee).
Tuesday got one of those emails from a site that I would have registered or used many moons ago.
The email had the normal click bait Subject Line: "Bitcoin up +11.58% in the last 7d."
No shit, like that is news. My faucets are now paying less, yeah I noticed.
Normally don't bother but it was from Blockchain.com. Besides the list of popular tokens with 7d movement and current prices, they do sometimes have some interesting Crypto News Headlines. Hence why they haven't been blocked.
"Ripple donates $1 million to support John Deaton's effort to unseat Elizabeth Warren"
Now I know who Elizabeth Warren is. You know SBF's grandmother, the evil crypto witch. She is also the US Senator for Massachusetts.
But who is this John Deaton? Never heard of him.
Here is the Cryptoslate article.
Ripple donates $1 million to support John Deaton's effort to unseat Elizabeth Warren
John Deaton And Crypto
- founder and host of CryptoLaw, launched 2021 to provide crypto holders with information, news, and analysis on key U.S. legal and regulatory developments
- played leading role in SEC's cases against Ripple and Coinbase
- represented 75,000 XRP holders in the CEC vs Ripple case through an amicus brief, ensuring that the interests of the crypto users are represented
- publicly criticized Elizabeth Warren and the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for their treatment of the emerging crypto industry
- supported by a "political action committee" (PAC) called the Commonwealth Unity Fund. Which aims to challenge and unseat Elizabeth warren. This Commonwealth Unity Fund was created by James Murphy, another pro-XRP lawyer
- Ripple gave the $1 million to the Commonwealth Unity Fund
Personal donations from some Crypto Industry heavy weights include:
- Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, $6,660 a piece (maximum allowed for primary and federal election)
- Anthony Scaramucci, unknown
- Brad Garlinghouse, $6,660
- Chris Larsen, $6,600
- Charles Hoskinson, $3,300 (primary maximum)
- Jameson Lopp, $3,300
- endorsed by Mark Cuban
So he has some real crypto credibility. Unseating the evil crypto witch is a long shot but you never know. Stranger things have happened.
Stranger Things Have Happened
10th July @SweptOverNiagara posted on his Morning Java blog
Morning JAVA: Big Event Set To Occur Around July 15?
"....an event so big is coming that it will enter our psyche the same way that Pearl Harbour did, the same as 9/11 did...."
I was thinking W111 or nuclear oblivion, something of that magnitude.
It did set the internet on fire but not quite the way it was planned to.
Which leads us to:
2022 Predictions On #Bitcoin
- Will reach $100k
- 2 more countries will adopt it as legal tender
- Will become a major electoral issue in US elections this year
- Bitcoin City will commence construction
- Volcano bonds will be oversubscribed
- Huge surprise at @TheBitcoinConf
@nayibbukele 2nd January 2022
Timeline might be a bit off but already reached $100k in most countries except maybe the US. But they have always been a bit slow and backward.
Definitely Crypto is now a major electoral issue within the US. And I am sure all you crypto bros are wishing John all best the best in his efforts to defeat the evil crypto witch.
