Nice. I like it. Need more skin in the game reporting and investigative journalism for sure. Especially if the creator of the content is heavily incentivized to accurately report.

Yup, things are trending in the right direction there, will all depend on some of those factors you mentioning and getting proper clarity vs going from a 'non-negative' approach to a formal clear and positive approach for companies, developers, investors, etc.

Yeah and on the pure Web3/Crypto side, it is a lot to do with how and where to launch a token from, setup a foundation/DAO, and where to actually get the token adopted, which obv has been mainly outside the US esp over the last 4 years, besides memes, but is now evolving once again. So as that shakes out, the uncertainty is slowing down launches and rounds to a degree.

Many toptier Canadian techCos already have Delware C cos for fundraising and various purposes and keep the Canadian side to get access to SR&D and what not here. Is the startup Spellbook? Or another?

As it relates to how investor sentiment, business decision making pace and clarity on these matters, especially the aspects of Web3 and crypto that are impact, whether hardware and compute for BTC/AI, or trading re: coins/tokens/RWAs, there is certainly less conviction on what will happen in the short-term and how to plan for next iterations.

The focus is going to be much more on physical products, such as cards. Likely to go to natural resources, minerals and the like from there. With digital goods not being the focus for the initial batch of tariffs. Therefore no real need to attempt to move companies, or hosting platforms etc to US, especially given that the US does not enforce data localization rules, like the EU and China.

Took in a special session with Canada/US business leaders on the impact of Tariffs for startups, tech and broader business last eve via NEXT. Asked the specific question on software, digital goods and the like. Overall, the perspective was that the tariffs are not focused on digital goods, yet.

Been using micro grants for 60-80 hour work projects for early career consultants to test execution ability and reup the top talent. Always ask in the interview to describe their relationship with AI. And if they cannot out AI me then very unlikely to be useful to the wider team.

In their older albums it the main singer, but in their newest one the whole squad gets involved in the singing and playing everything instrument. Plus lots of cigarettes. Highly recommend.

Here's a useful way to categorize tokens -- from network tokens to memecoins, plus a handy flowchart to help figure things out.

The critical takeaway here isn't about memecoins. It's that the SEC's interpretation of Howey continues to be that an investment contract may exist based on the "economic reality" of an arrangement. The SEC's recent optimistic approach to the industry and the dismissal of many of its cases has led a lot of people to believe that "everything is legal". That's particularly true because most of the cases the SEC has been dropping/settling involved arguments by the defendants that, rather than "economic reality," Howey's investment contract analysis hinged on whether there was a formal contract. So, if the dismissals were a sign that the SEC was accepting of this "predicate contract" argument (and abandoning the "economic reality" argument), nearly every token in existence would be legal. This release confirms the SEC doesn't believe "everything is legal" and that's a good thing.
