Bitcoin, crypto, blockchain will all help philanthropy Had a great conversation with @ircadam about the intersection of crypto, blockchain, and philanthropy. First benefit: donating appreciated assets like Bitcoin can help you avoid capital gains tax, while showing a tax deduction for the donation. But that's not all. Blockchain tech can also help charitable organizations accept and manage donations more efficiently. No more intermediaries or high fees! @endaoment Transparency is key in philanthropy. With blockchain, we can see exactly where our donations are going. No more wondering if our money is being used for admin costs or actual good. And then there's the issue of dispersing donations. With blockchain, we can send money directly to those who need it, without going through the banking system. But what's often overlooked is the ethos of the crypto and blockchain community. We want to create a more fair and equitable world, and that includes giving back.

Memecoins might be more than just a fleeting trend. They represent the power of experimentation in the crypto ecosystem. We're learning about community, token economics, and social popularity in real-time.

My daughter goes to a Montessori school. How hard is it to keep kids, parents, teachers on track with the program when there are so many comparisons to traditional education? "my kid already knows multiplication tables..."

Blockchain technology will create a new gen of asset managers. They'll be experts in prediction markets like @polymarket, music royalties, or RWA tokens. They'll be able to look at the onchain data and manage a fund or portfolio. New opportunities for investors and analysts

What to do with the crypto gains? I'm getting calls and texts now. Do I sell? Everyone's situation is different. Hold or sell when it fits your narrative. Donate appreciated crypto @endaoment Start a Roth IRA If you've become ultra-wealthy, start estate tax planning.

How will Trump affect DeFi? More assets like stablecoins and tokenized RWAs will add adoption and usage of the DeFi protocols. Interesting to see if regulations lead to fee switch among protocols, sharing revenue with token holders.

How will the Trump administration affect tokenization? New regulators, and a new stance on crypto and blockchain regulation could open the floodgates to more tokenized assets. That brings the trillions of dollars onchain

After a pretty eventful week, I wanted to share a few items from the research and investment team at Bespoke Group. A couple podcasts and a newsletter. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-jacob-shapiro-podcast/id1618811454?i=1000676038481

With a new administration, stablecoin legislation might be on the horizon. What does this mean? More companies issuing their own stablecoins, giving us a truly efficient, transparent digital dollar, and unlocking new use cases & investments!

Why is Bitcoin surging? Three reasons: 1) Trump's economic policies could lead to inflation, making scarce assets like Bitcoin more valuable. 2) The proposed strategic Bitcoin reserve could drive demand. 3) A more pro-crypto regulatory regime could reduce risk for institutions.

New administration incoming More favorable regulators. Possibly new token economics. Less money and time spent fighting regulators in court. The next 4 years need to be heavy on the building.

Maybe Blockchain leads to less regulation The entire point of securities and banking regulation is to provide transparency to investors. The transparency of blockchain tech should mean the govt just needs to determine what needs to be in the Smart Contracts, and every company can "go public"

Do we really want regulatory clarity? I'm not so sure. Legislation comes with compromise, and I don't think we want Congress compromising with our networks. Better to keep building to where the regulations have to come meet the adoptions.
