WAS IT AN ACT OF GENIOUS OR GREED?…

The Senate passed the Genius Act on June 18 with a landslide vote of 68-30, opening the door for what could be a watershed moment for the crypto industry. The Genius Act was introduced by Senator Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.) and co-sponsored by Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyoming) in conjunction with others in the Republican Party.

Senator Hagerty has been an outspoken advocate for crypto and the economic and national security benefits of blockchain, arguing that a robust crypto market can create jobs, attract investment, and strengthen the resilience of the U.S. financial infrastructure.

Although the Senate passed the bill, we still need the House to make it law.

But this hasn’t stopped the New Issue Circle Internet Group from skyrocketing after only two weeks of being public.

CIRCLE was priced at 31 dollars a share, raising 1.1 billion dollars from Wall Street investors. Now, it currently sits at 263.45 dollars a share, up 848%, and already sitting with a 63.89 billion market cap.

The obvious catalyst was the passing of the Genius Act in the Senate and the anticipation of the high probability of passing in the House.

The Genius Act opens up new industries and creates a much-needed regulatory framework that opens the door to a wide range of investors, whereas the lack of regulation keeps the serious monies out of crypto-related products.

This is the first comprehensive federal law to regulate stablecoins—digital assets pegged to the U.S. dollar.

I know what you are thinking—for all you fiat currency haters, how is this a win for crypto?

Well, the way I see it, the U.S. government would never support a currency that undermines the U.S. dollar. In fact, they have solidified the dollar's dominance by backing it with a 1:1 ratio of highly liquid assets, such as the U.S. dollar or short-term treasuries, which are subject to monthly audits to ensure their integrity and to prevent failures like TerraUSD.

The Act restricts stablecoins issuances to banks and approved non-financial entities, with federal oversight for banks or entities with over $ 10 billion in assets. Those that are less than 10 billion will be regulated by the states.

The real win is enabling regulated private enterprises to issue stablecoins. Non-financial companies seeking to create their own coins will have to partner with a federally approved entity.

This means you might see retail organizations like Amazon and Walmart partner with the likes of Visa as they seek to build out their stablecoin products. Regulation will open the door for widespread adoption not just domestically but globally.

The boldest part of the bill is that it clears the way for the tokenization of bonds, equities, and commodities. This will no doubt ignite the grand wizards of Wall Street product creation and clear the way for the world’s first equity-based tokenized exchange.

So, instead of buying Apple stock with dollars, you are buying Apple stock with stablecoin.

The benefits of stablecoins are price stability, fast and low cost transactions, global accessibility by way of the creation of a super financial high way accessible to all, 24/7 availability unlike banks, transparency and most importantly security plus it creates operational efficiency for businesses, and it creates stability as a hedge for crypto traders seeking a flight to safety.

This also creates a potential for lower short term treasury bond yields as stablecoins have a 1:1 ratio to treasuries, forcing the purchase of short-term treasuries, which will drive prices up and yields down.

This also provides liquidity to the federal government in terms of short-term treasury auctions.

Now to address the elephant in the room.

Trump made 57 million in crypto-related profit in 2024, which could explain why his administration is pro-crypto.

Obviously, there are some major conflicts of interest. However, as long as Trump has full control of the Senate and House, there is no one to stop him from using the White House and his merry band of billionaires from making more billions.

WAR - EVEN IF WE WIN WE LOSE!

There is an old saying, All is fair in love and war unless an eye gets poked out, and right now, Israel and Iran are trading an eye-for-an-eye, while the rest of the world watches. Reports suggest that Iran was extremely close to having the capacity to produce nuclear weapons material by mid-2025.

Multiple sources, including the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), confirm Iran had stockpiled enough 60% enriched uranium—over 270 kg—to potentially make more than nine bombs if further enriched to 90% weapons-grade. Experts say Iran could produce enough weapons-grade uranium for a bomb in as little as a week, and enough for several bombs within a month.

With a sense of urgency, Israel derailed the nuclear settlement talks between the U.S. and Iran by striking a deadly blow to Iran’s leadership. The death toll is said to have reached at least over 600 people in Iran during the weeklong conflict.

The Associated Press reported, citing a Washington-based human rights group. Israel said its death toll remained at 24.

According to two sources familiar with the situation, Israel’s airstrikes have likely delayed Iran’s nuclear program by several months, as reported by NBC News. However, the strikes have not accomplished the ultimate goal of completely eliminating the program, which means all roads lead to the White House—while seemingly reluctant to get directly involved, Israel claims they can go it alone.

Meanwhile, it seems like a game of musical chair bombs, with the cliff hanger being, will the U.S drop the bunker buster bombs in attempts to eradicate Iran's nuclear capabilities and support Israel?

Well the suspense is over, and the music has stopped, the U.S dropped 6 bunker busters on the Fordow and other nuclear sites in Iran.  

So much for Trump taking two weeks to decide.

At first it was thought that Trump would weigh very carefully getting  the U.S involved in an expensive war that could be inflationary and have both international and domestic consequences.

And although our economy is stable depending on who you ask, with the dollar dropping and the bond market flashing warning signs, a war could be the straw that breaks the camel’s back

The consumer is already choking on the very inflation that Wall Street wants to pretend is headed in the right direction. Although the headline CPI is at 2.4% and the Core PCE is at 2.5%—what’s happening on the ground with the consumer is speaking an alternate fact.

The consumer is heavily under attack, and corporate America seems to be using the tariff headlines to justify price increases to satisfy Wall Street.

Sure, there are legitimate concerns, and individual sectors may be impacted, but the bottom line is, can the U.S. afford another war?—especially when you think of the chaos and incremental impact of a war in the Middle East and the countries that depend on its oil.

Just about 20% of the world's oil moves through the Straits of Hormuz.

While the United States will be greatly impacted, keep in mind that we are the largest producer of oil in the world, so it is Europe and China that will suffer the most.

A Straits Of Hormuz Shut Down Could Because:

Oil Price Surge: The conflict has already caused oil prices to jump by 7–9% in the days following the initial strikes, with analysts warning that a major disruption—especially to the Strait of Hormuz—could push prices to $100–$120 per barrel. The Strait of Hormuz is a vital chokepoint, handling about a third of the world’s seaborne oil; any closure or disruption would trigger a global oil shock.

Supply Disruptions: Both Israel and Iran have suffered attacks on energy infrastructure, affecting oil and gas production. If the conflict escalates or drags in other regional players, supply interruptions could become more widespread, especially impacting countries heavily reliant on Middle Eastern oil—such as China and many European nations.

Global Trade Impact: Higher energy prices increase costs for manufacturing, transportation, and consumer goods worldwide, fueling inflation and slowing economic growth. Shipping through the region could become riskier or more expensive, disrupting supply chains for oil, gas, and other goods.

Now, keep in mind this is at a time where tariffs are already causing worldwide turmoil, upsetting the financial balance globally. Now, a war that could have the implications of more inflation on top of the fear already instigated by tariffs could topple world markets.

This is a very critical game of chess where all obvious moves will be outplayed, and those who think they have the upper hand could fall victim to the thorn in one’s side—IRAN.

Especially, if there are terrorist attacks on U.S soil, even if we win, we lose!
